The Windup - A podcast by The Athletic

The Baseball Barista with Hunter Pence & Grant Brisbee are ready to give you a steaming cup of hot takes on the first third of the MLB season. Who are the surprising teams, who has disappointed and who is leading baseball in homers. The guys break down the team that they each think can make a run the rest of the season to make the playoffs. They break down if the Giants are for real or just having a lucky start to their season. The 2 Chicago teams are looking good so far and they both expect big things from them the rest of the way. The MLB Home Run Race is very exciting with lots of young stars at the top of the list. A lot of Jrs- Guerrero Jr, Tatis Jr & Acuna Jr. They discuss how Vlad Jr has really worked hard this offseason and it has really showed so far a third of the way thru the season.
