So here is my honest assessment. Liked the episode's baseball content as far as talking about the Diaz trade and Jays centric themes.
I still have no idea who Nick is or what value he brought, (not saying he brought anything bad) only that need to share some more info on the hosts. I know the guy is from Peterborough.. that is about it. Need some more stories from the hosts like episode 8, that made it entertaining.. I feel you guys did a really good job bonding and making it relatable in 8, maybe a little step back this one. Seemed a little antiseptic.
I have heard you guys say you are trying to not make it about the board and be a stand-alone show. Fine, but then what is the infatuation with the Orioles and the Hangout?
Back to the Diaz trade: These things don't just happen in vacuum, 99% of the discussion was value on trade- Jays vs Houston. Remember, there are 28 other teams possibly driving up value or competing. I know Kansas City for sure was interested.
I look forward to the Podcasts, so you guys have done well. I enjoy them, I just think you need to let the audience get to know who you guys are a little better and tell more stories.
End goal being, people want to tune in to hear YOU guys talk about baseball, not just baseball talk by a bunch of guys.
