Episode Notes
In today's episode, Connor discusses the return Philadelphia Phillies reliever Jose Alvarado from his PED suspension, and talks about how the Phils will benefit from getting him back. How should they use him in a bullpen that has become more settled, and how should the fan base react to the return of a player that can help the team, but also hurt their World Series chances? Next, a reaction to the offensive explosion in game 1 against the Seattle Mariners that saw the Phils rack up 21 hits, 4 homers, and also featured a great pitching performance from Ranger Suarez! Finally, a look at game 2 between the Phillies and Mariners, and why Cristopher Sanchez has a great opportunity to step into his new role as the ace of the rotation.
