Effectively Wild Episode 2304: You Say Suspension, I Say Extension

Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley banter about several oddities of the early season, including pitcher Ryne Nelson’ s single and a drone encounter with an A’s bat boy, then discuss Jurickson Profar’ s PED suspension, Garrett Crochet’ s extension, and Jonathan Lucroy ‘s reaction to Roki Sasaki’ s apparent post-start tears, before bantering about whether full ABS would encourage even harder throwing, Lance Lynn ’s retirement, a wild college throw, and more, plus a postscript.
