6/3/2019 The Usual Suspects Hour 3

Jun 03, 2019, 09:05 PM

The guys start off the hour discussing the Astros’ extra-inning win last night, praising young guys such as Tony Kemp, Derek Fisher, and Myles Straw for their contribution to the Astros’ recent success despite injuries. The guys praise the Astros recent ability to win with small-ball, while the majority of their top tier players remain on the injured list. They examine the team’s transition from a power-heavy, home run hitting squad to a small-ball team of role players from their farm system, and discuss whether they can keep up this pace until stars like Altuve, Correa, and Springer return. The guys discuss some of the other hot teams in baseball and whether teams like the Dodgers and Twins can remain dominant forces in their respective leagues, and finish the show by discussing today’s Jeopardy leak.
