Andy and Sam are on the case to tackle the big issues of the week, like how the Cardinals somehow have a schedule that’s just Pirates and Brewers for three months and was the Cubs’ torturous sweep by the Nats a harbinger of things to come or just baseball? They debate if losing the wild card game counts as “making the playoffs,” (it does), and give in to the stupids and defend the Gleyber Torres trade…again. Andy wonders if Kyle Hendricks is really as smart as everybody says he is.
