New Metric Says Cleveland Guardians Best Positioned to Benefit From Baseball's New Rule Changes
Cleveland Guardians manager Terry Francona was named the most handsome manager in baseball last year. You know the team wasn't going to let that one go without having some fun at their manager's expense, so we laughed along with the team a little bit and their way to poke fun at Tito.
The Guardians seem to have some good news on the injury front for a change with a few relievers scheduled to take the mound on Wednesday for the first time in game action this spring.
A metric developed by 538, called MANFRED, (https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/mlb-rule-changes-winners-losers/…) projects that the Guardians are the team that stands to take advantage of baseball's new rules the most and benefit. We get into that metric and why it says the Guardians are the perfect team for baseball's new rules.
We also re-hash playing time questions between Myles Straw and Will Brennan, explaining why Straw is going to be the regular centerfielder, why he'll be better in '23 and why both players should see plenty of playing time.
Also let us know if you're going to be watching the World Baseball Classic Tuesday night as Cuba and the Netherlands (Richie Palacios) play in the first game of the '23 tournament. We know Jeff will be glued to his TV!
