January 2015 (Podcast)

Ben Zobrist's first move, NBA nepotism, El Oso Blanco, and the best pitcher in the Netherlands

Presenting the first episode of the Trades Ten Years Later podcast! The podcast is intended to take off some of the self-inflicted pressure to write about every trade that shows up on the calendar. I expect that we’ll publish at least one new episode for each major trade event (which is something like twelve per year).

Joining me on this episode was Dylan of Rain Delay Radio. As a lifelong Atlanta Braves fan, he was eminently qualified to discuss the numerous (mostly insignificant) players that the Braves traded for or away this month.
