Description

<p>Eno, Britt, and DVR are back and fired up as the trio breaks down the Phillies’ decision to fire manager Rob Thomson, what led to the move, and how Dave Dombrowski’s club can get back on track — including whether brighter days are ahead for Jesús Luzardo. From there, they shift to the Mets’ ongoing struggles, exploring what needs to change before things spiral further, and wrap on a high note with the debut of Guardians top prospect Travis Bazzana.</p><p>Rundown:</p><p>2:55 Phillies Fire Rob Thomson</p><p>4:20 Slow Starting Bats</p><p>11:35 Limited Options for Position Players</p><p>17:00 Remember the 2019 Nats?</p><p>20:52 Faith in the Rotation</p><p>26:06 How to Fix the Mets</p><p>36:25 More Concerned About Hitting or Pitching?</p><p>48:30 Guardians Call Up Travis Bazzana</p><p>53:40 Eno’s Hot Take in Cleveland</p><p>55:55 Alex Cora to Mets or Phillies?</p><p>Follow DVR on Bluesky: @DVR.bsky.social</p><p>Follow Eno on Bluesky: @enosarris.bsky.social</p><p>Follow Britt on Bluesky: @brittghiroli.bsky.social</p><p>e-mail: [email protected]</p><p>Join our Discord: https://discord.gg/FyBa9f3wFe</p><p>Subscribe to The Athletic: theathletic.com/ratesandbarrels</p><p>Hosts: Derek VanRiper &amp; Eno Sarris</p><p>With: Britt Ghiroli</p><p>Editor: Jason Potere</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
