Fifty episodes for The Wheelhouse! Yeesh, where does the time go? In our most recent sitdown—this show being audio-only as we return to ROOT SPORTS next week—Jerry Dipoto and Aaron Goldsmith caught up just before the start of the road trip.
We talk trades, All-Stars, snacks and…a lot more, as always.
Full episode outline:
- 1:00 — The trade for Jesse Biddle
- 7:45 — An uneven 3–3 homestand
- 9:35 — Edwin Encarnación’s very strong 2019 thus far
- 11:11 — Mitch Haniger getting going
- 13:15 — Roenis Elías being a steadying force down in the bullpen
- 19:00—Listener question: Does Jerry have a governing principle or overarching theme when building a bullpen?
