Bobby and Alex dive far too deep into the Tony La Russa/Yermín Mercedes saga and then check in on the stadium stalemate in Oakland. Then they listen to a couple voicemails about players you dislike on your favorite team and Jim Crane’s real estate portfolio. This week’s Three Up, Three Down features real live in-person baseball and Stephen A. Smith’s take on Shohei Ohtani.
