Effectively Wild: A FanGraphs Baseball Podcast Effectively Wild Episode 2257: You Better Fried Your Mind Instead
Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley banter about the end of the Winter Meetings, then discuss the rest of what down in Dallas: the Max Fried signing and where the Yankees roster stands, the Garrett Crochet trade, referring to a single player as a “Red Sox,” the Andrés Giménez (and Spencer Horwitz) trades, the Rangers re-signing Nathan Eovaldi and trading for Jake Burger, the Nationals landing the no. 1 overall pick in the draft lottery, Washington’s pitching development philosophy, the saga of Braggo Roth, and more, plus a few postscript updates.
Audio intro: Jimmy Kramer, “Effectively Wild Theme”
Audio outro: The Gagnés, “Effectively Wild Theme”
