Artificial Turf Wars Ep. 19: The Save Canada’s Podcast Act

Kate Morrison of Baseball Prospectus stops by the podcast to discuss the recent Save America’s Pastime Act, why MLB wants it put in, and how it can affect the livelihoods of minor leaguers, all while dispelling an important myth about minor league team viability. Greg and Josh break down the recent slate of play, including the Canada Day marathon and its fallout, Troy Tulowitzki’s rennaissance, Marcus Stroman’s turnaround, the All-Star selections of Josh Donaldson, Edwin Encarnacion, and Marco Estrada. Estrada’s DL stint was also covered, as well as his possible replacement. Finally, the boys give a Do-Over to Buck Martinez and answer a whole bunch of listener questions.
