Episode description

Derek Van Riper joins Sara and Shelly to look at players off to hot (or cold) starts to 2024.

Discussions

The best starting pitchers this season didn't generally go in round one or two. Two of the guys that went right after the general consensus aces are dealing -- would you rather roster Tarik Skubal or Tyler Glasnow rest of season?

The Phillies are the best team in baseball and two of the players driving that success are Bryson Stott and Alec Bohm, which player do we think can keep it up rest of season?

Three years ago we were sure the Blue Jays were an offensive juggernaut for years to come, but their bats are struggling again to start 2024. Is it the renovations to the Rogers Centre or something else?

Returning to a recent debate with more playing time information, we can't quit Richie Palacios or Jonny DeLuca, but does one of them have a clearer path to playing time on a crowded Rays roster?

A redraft league conundrum -- Jackson Chourio has struggled to start the season, but Jake Meyers has not. Are you ready to bench Chourio for Meyers?

Luis Gil and Seth Lugo are both off to amazing starts this season, who do you trust to keep up that production going forward?
