Box Score Baseball Podcast: Blame It on the Rain

Wayne Bretsky and Mark Kaplan take a trip around a rainy week of MLB action, covering injuries to Bryce Harper, Chris Davis, Ryan Braun and Michael Pineda. The guys attempt to gauge Manny Machado’s value upon his return to the lineup and play a little game of Buy/Sell/Hold with some struggling studs. The boys also hit the waiver wire, discuss daily pitching strategies and jump into another edition of The Good, the Bad and the Upside before closing out the show with some questions from the listeners.

Hit up the guys on Twitter @BretskyBall and @DaTrueGuru to join in on the action!
