Effectively Wild Episode 2135: Season Preview Series: Rays and Pirates

Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley banter concerning the retirement of Meg favourite Mike Zunino, some groups’ mismatched grey jerseys and pants, whether or not Blake Snell remains to be unsigned partially as a result of his pitching isn’t enjoyable to observe (and whether or not he walks batters by chance or on goal), and Joey Votto’s minor league cope with the Blue Jays, then preview the 2024 Tampa Bay Rays (36:14) with MLB.com’s Adam Berry, and the 2024 Pittsburgh Pirates (1:09:21) with MLB.com’s Alex Stumpf.
