Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley banter in regards to the Boras Four behind the scenes, Hyun Jin Ryu’s salary-cap-skirting KBO contract, and a research on the effectiveness of complaining about umps, plus a Stat Blast (22:51) about an inaccurate, unkillable Greg Maddux enjoyable truth and extra musings (34:52) on clear pants. Then they preview the 2024 Minnesota Twins (41:02) with The Athletic’s Aaron Gleeman, and the 2024 Detroit Tigers (1:12:50) with The Athletic’s Cody Stavenhagen.
