Episode 310: "One of Our Best Players"

First, a moment to recognize Willie Mays and all his incredible contributions to baseball. Thank you, Willie. Onto the episode, All Star voting is open! Round 1 voting goes until June 27th and you can vote 5x/day for our favorite guys! Look for our voting guide coming very soon. Also, we discuss the Dodgers’ new City Connects ahead of their release…did our comments hold up once the real deal dropped?? (Yes.) The IL Report is unfortunately back! Tommy Pham returns just in time to face his former club, Masataka Yoshida comes off a lengthy stint only to be HBP in the hand, and Yoshinobu Yamamoto goes to the 15-day with a strained rotator cuff. But position player news keeps us in high spirits! Rob Refsnyder and Connor Wong continue to hold it down for the Red Sox, with Refsnyder being “one of our best players,” Steven Kwan is on a 10! Game! Hit! Streak!, and Kyle Higashioka hits his first ever walk off home run. In pitching news, Dane Dunning gets the Yu Darvish treatment from his World Series Champion teammates, Kenta Maeda is back, and Shota Imanaga - er, sorry, MIKE Imanaga II - knows he’s a sophisticated guy. And Ohtani bounces back from his “slump” with the long ball - an oppo field, record-breaking(ish) long ball.  All Star voting is open! https://www.mlb.com/all-star/ballot Rob Refsnyder is “one of our best players”: https://www.masslive.com/redsox/2024/06/mlb-notebook-rob-refsnyder-sheds-journeyman-role-to-become-key-contributor.html Higgy walks it off: https://www.mlb.com/video/kyle-higashioka-homers-5-on-a-fly-ball-to-left-field
