Podcast: So which team won the MLB offseason?
This is The StewPod, our baseball podcast with a dash of pop culture. If you dig the show, please subscribe and review us on iTunes.
We’re just a couple weeks from spring training, the major free agents have signed and baseball, more or less, is ready for its 2016 season. So, we have to ask: Which team won the offseason?
To “win the offseason” isn’t always a good thing, mind you. Sometimes winning the offseason puts too heavy of expectations on a squad. Sometimes it seems to curse a team into a state of mediocrity. Sometimes, well sometimes, it really doesn’t mean anything.

Nonetheless, it’s a thing that people talk about and this is a podcast on which people talk, so you see where we’re going here.
On this week’s StewPod, we’re figuring out which MLB team won the offseason. We’re also joined by our buddy Bad News Ramen for a Three Strikes segment, we have a litany of things to talk about in our Important Questions segment and we jam out to the new Hartford Yard Goats jingle.
Here’s a full rundown of this week’s show:
• Chris’ middle initial apparently isn’t J
• The Yard Goats are our spirit animal
• What does it mean to “Win the Offseason?”
• OK, now which team Won the Offseason?
• Three Strikes with Bad News Ramen on Matt Harvey, Bryce Harper and Jonny Gomes
• Important questions on Home Run Derbys, casting the PED era and Martin Shkreli
