About this episode
Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley banter about Carlos Correa ’s contract limbo, the Pirates signing Rich Hill , the Rangers signing Nathan Eovaldi , the Red Sox signing Corey Kluber , the Blue Jays trading Gabriel Moreno and Lourdes Gurriel Jr. to the Diamondbacks for Daulton Varsho , the Braves extending Sean Murphy , and the Phillies signing Craig Kimbrel . Then (39:51) they discuss at least one listener-nominated topic about each National League team that they had previously overlooked on the podcast in 2022 (including a Stat Blast at 1:12:53 about the decline in qualified hitters and hitters with 700-plus plate appearances), plus a Past Blast (1:44:29) from 1947.
