MLB Opening Day is FINALLY HERE!

Today's word of the day is 'over' as in the wait is over as in baseball is back! It's been months since MLB shutdown, but we're finally here. Opening Day. In July (0:06). Let's talk about pressure. Gerrit Cole is now a Yankee and the team is paying him major money to be the best. Will he be? Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton, Gleyber Torres, Gary Sanchez... that's a dangerous lineup. Can they carry the Yankees to their first World Series title since 2009 (3:50). What about the Los Angeles Dodgers? Is it their time? They just signed Mookie Betts to a long-term deal that would keep him in LA until he's 40. The team is loaded with talent, like always. Will they be able to finally get that ring (14:32)? BREAKING - Washington will call itself the "Washington Football Team" until it adopts its new team name... what? This is ridiculous (18:57). The Cleveland Indians also released a statement on the possibility of changing the team name. Let's discuss this (20:38). Where will Toronto Blue Jays play their home games during the 2020 season? Not in Toronto. Not in Pittsburgh. Maybe Baltimore? Maybe Buffalo (23:12)? Review - Da 5 Bloods (28:58). Jets owner Woody Johnson is under investigation for racist and sexist comments made as Ambassador to the United Kingdom (30:50). So You Wanna Talk To Samson!? Someone asked me what my predictions are for the 2020 MLB season. Well... here they are (41:45). #waittosee
