Host George Martin (@AstrosFansUK) is joined by special guest, former Houston Astro from 2015-18, 'El Oso Blanco', Evan Gattis (@BulldogBeing). An extraordinary and starkly open conversation begins with Gattis' thoughts on the 2021 Astros, before taking a hugely in-depth look at his years with the club. This discussion begins with Gattis describing what it was like to be part of the vibrant 2015 Houston Astros who came close to advancing to the American League Championship Series, before detailing his frustrations over the 2016 team narrowly missing out on making the Postseason. Following this, Gattis breaks down the experience of being part of the Houston Astros' 2017 World Series Champions, including his unfiltered, inside views on the subsequent sign stealing cheating scandal. Gattis details what it was like being part of this at the time and the wider response to the scandal, plus his outlook on this in 2021. Subsequently, Gattis gives his thoughts on the latest cheating issue in baseball, regarding pitchers illegally using sticky substances to increase spin, before an overview on cheating throughout baseball history - sign-stealing or otherwise. Finally, the discussion takes a frank and strikingly honest look at Evan Gattis' unique and remarkable path to the majors.
