Welcome back to Screwball! Your home for everything baseball. Hosted by Michael Lepre and Frank White.
This week we finally have 2020 baseball to discuss! It seems we are already having problems though. The MLB didn't make it a full week without already having a team encounter an outbreak in their clubhouse. Now the Marlins aren't playing ball for a week, and several other teams had to reschedule games because of it. In other news: the Rangers lose ace Corey Kluber for the year? Justin Verlander is also out for the year? How did each series go for the 30 teams? What are our impressions of the first few games? Who's hot and who's not? Take a listen!

This week we discuss the upcoming free agent class and the effect this season is going to have on those free agents. With Mookie Betts now off the board, many other free agents are going to get more attention and possible bigger contracts. In other news, the Blue Jays still do not have a place to play and the playoffs will now be expanded to 16 teams. Who are the top free agents coming into next season? Where are the Blue Jays going to play this year? How do we feel about 16 teams in the playoffs? Take a listen and find out!

This week we give our opinion on what we're calling "crazy" predictions. These predictions include various trades and trade locations for some players as well as who could throw a no hitter, hit for the cycle and hit four home runs. With such a shortened season, some players are going to be red hot which may lead to some impressive stat sheets for single games. Who are the most likely sellers? Will there even be a no hitter this season? What about a cycle? And could someone possibly do the near impossible of hitting 4 home runs in one game? Take a listen and find out!

This week we discuss our 2020 season predictions... again! So much has changed since we first recorded our predictions episodes that we thought it would be appropriate to reevaluate the season. Since we are only getting 60 games and teams are primarily playing games in there own divisions, things can get more interesting. Could there be a surprise team making the playoffs this year? Could there be some play in games? What about the statistics? Could we see a player hit .400? What about the lasting impact of the season? Take a listen and find out!
