MONEYBALL REDUX & 2022 BASEBALL PREVIEW (feat. Céspedes Family BBQ & Scott Hatteberg) - a podcast by Jed Sprague

from 2022-04-07T12:54:09

:: ::

America's pastime is back, and so is our favorite Brad Pitt Excel Spreadsheet vehicle, MONEYBALL. We banter about how the movie has aged just a year after our first conversation about it. This movie didn't ruin baseball...did it? Plus, we have some very special guests. Jake and Jordan from Céspedes Family BBQ somehow made it 11 years without seeing MONEYBALL, but we got the scoop from them on their first watch. And finally, we're joined by Scott Hatteberg, 1B from the infamous 2002 Athletics team. He was played by Chris Pratt in the film, and he shares some inside stories from that season and the film set. And to close, we lay it all on the line. Our MLB preseason predictions. Take 'em to Vegas, we promise (you might see the A's there in a few years).
