Successfully Wild Episode 2184: The Largest First-Half Surprises

EWFI
Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley banter a couple of participant/league/umpire spat over on-screen strike-zone plots, whether or not “Ok-Zone” and its ilk have had a dangerous impact on the sport, the place they stand on a hitter vs. pitcher dispute in regards to the mid-game use of superior pitching machines, the promotion of Nationals prime prospect James Wooden (and the way forward for Orioles prime prospect Jackson Holliday), and Byron Buxton’s latest success. Then (59:08) they establish and talk about the groups, hitters, and pitchers which have most surpassed or fallen wanting their preseason projections midway via the common season.
