The Boston Red Sox are struggling and sure could use some help. That help might have been sitting in their farm system this whole time, and now the world is about to join the Red Sox in finding out. MLB’s number one prospect, Roman Anthony, has been called up. After struggling in his first game as a major leaguer, Anthony finally notched his first hit in his second game with Boston. Jake and Jordan break down the infancy of Anthony’s career, why exactly he was the top prospect and what to expect going forward.
The A’s center fielder, Denzel Clarke, has not been in the MLB for very long, but he already gave us the catch of the year on Monday night. Might this home run robbery be the greatest catch of all-time? The guys sure seem to think so. They break down what exactly happened when the A’s faced the Angels and where this catch ranks all-time.
Shohei Ohtani was has returned to the mound again. While it was still just practice, he appears to be inching closer to his MLB return to pitching. Jake and Jordan talk about how close he may actually be, Dave Roberts’ comments on the situation and what a return would mean for the Dodgers.
Plus, ESPN analyst, and former major leaguer, Chris Burke joins the show to talk about the Men’s College World Series.
Join us for a jam-packed Wednesday episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast.
