44: Pujols, Ichiro, and the Inexorable March of Time

Ducksnort Baseball Podcast

The Ducksnort boys dive into a packed week of MLB news, including Albert Pujols’s 3,000th hit and Ichiro Suzuki’s retirement. Greg and Wayland bid a fond farewell to Ichiro, then debate exactly how meaningful Pujol’s milestone is and what the rest of his career might look like. Plus Clayton Kershaw’s injury means the Dodgers are even more fucked than they were before, and raises the question of whether he’s still the best pitcher in the world. Finally, Wayland rants about the pace of play initiative (again) and points out that Rob Manfred’s war against inaction could mean the end of the home run trot. With thoughts on Max Scherzer, Chris Sale, Corey Kluber, Mike Trout’s unbelievable season/career, Wade Boggs, perfect games, Walker Buehler, Yadier Molina’s VERY unfortunate testicular trauma, and more!
