Rafael Devers' Defiance & Bryce Harper's Cycle | Feat: Jake Bauers | Baseball Is Dead | EP. #435

Episode 435: MLB Draft season is fast approaching! Our tribal chief, Jared, is away at the MLB Draft Combine, which allows Dallas, Tyler, and Jay Hay to get weird at the start of the week!

Rafael Devers finds himself in the news once again for the wrong reasons. This time, it features him attempting to wave off a pinch runner and send him back to the dugout in the 9th inning. The guys react to the potential fallout of another public incident for Devers and the Giants organization.

Bryce Harper hit for his own “Br-cycle” this week and added another milestone to his potential Hall of Fame career. The conversation on Harper leads the guys to discuss which active player most needs a World Series ring to cement their legacy.

And lastly, Byron Buxton has said he does not want to be traded from the Minnesota Twins. The crew reacts to the request and the lose-lose situation small-market superstars find themselves in during the social media era.
