Wayne Bretsky and Mark Kaplan discuss all the latest happening around the MLB. Bretsky gives Mark his due after a head-to-head beatdown. Carlos Santana heats up, Tim Lincecum suts it down and J.D. Martinez continues to hit. The boys play a quick game of Buy/Sell/Hold and also open up the mailbag to help out some listeners.
Hit up the guys on Twitter @BretskyBall and @DaTrueGuru to join in on the action!
