Episode Description from the Publisher

Hosts Joe Maddon and Tom Verducci begin with a look at the turnaround of the Rays and their stadium improvements.  Tom points out the slow starts from the biggest spending teams, while the lowest payrolls are doing well!  Hitting has been off and Joe explains the adjustments that need to be made.  While thinking of the most dominating pitchers that we've actually seen, Tom could be adding a new name to the list.  Plus, Joe remembers his good friend Garrett Anderson and his impact on baseball and the Angels.
