These days more and more baseball players are trying to hit the ball in the air. The reason why is simple; when you hit the ball in the air good things happen and when you don’t bad things happen. The launch angle revolution has exploded through baseball and it’s effects are being seen everywhere. Josh and I had  a brief discussion about what the big deal is and how it’s affecting players in the big leagues.

The Los Angeles Dodgers are the best team in baseball. In fact, they’re the best team we’ve seen in quite some time. Josh and I decided to talk about them for a bit.

In our most recent podcast, Josh and I run down what happened at the trade deadline. And before you ask, no I didn’t do much editing here.

In our very first ever episode of the Off the Beaten Base Paths Podcast, Josh and I talk about the impending rebuild of the Detroit Tigers brought on by their salary cap hell.

I promise we’ll get better at this eventually.
