Description

Eno and DVR discuss Jacob deGrom's bid to work with slightly less velocity in an effort to stay healthy in 2025, two pitching injuries that popped up in Rangers camp, Brandon Woodruff's steps toward a return to the Brewers' rotation, and Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s pursuit of a $500 million payday. Plus, Eno checks in from Mariners camp in Peoria before John Fogerty crashes our party over the PA system.
