MLB Stars Struggling + Garret Crochet Gets Hit Hard + Mets & Astros in Big Trouble? | BBTN Pod

The Rays’ Chandler Simpson is a menace on the bases. He joins Buster Olney to discuss what other players say about his speed during games, his on-base obsession, pregame bunting regiments, Tony Gwynn, and Jackie Robinson’s on the field fearlessness. Then, ESPN’s David Schoenfield stops by to talk about star players batting under .200 to start the season and Garrett Crochet’s eyebrow raising game. Plus, on a scale of 1-10, how worried are they about the Blue Jays, Mets and Astros. Later, Buster is joined by former National League President Leonard Coleman Jr. to share the story of how Robinson’s No. 42 was retired across MLB.
