144. The Most Exciting Team in Baseball

<p>We talk about the San Diego Padres being one of baseball’s hottest and most entertaining teams, what’s contributing to their success, how they’re actually ahead of schedule and why that should scare the rest of the league, and of course, lots of grand slams. We transition into conversation about the Chicago White Sox popping off at the plate (specifically Jose Abreu) before wrapping up with our thoughts on the trade deadline, and whether teams will be willing to make deals and go all in for a shortened-season World Series title or just stock up for 2021 and beyond. Before we break down the Padres, White Sox trade deadline and other baseball topics, we open up the episode with a game of word pronunciation, giving our takes on words that have multiple ways of being said.</p> <p>NEW MERCH: <a href="//the30takepod.com/store">the30takepod.com/store</a></p>
