About this episode
Craig Elsten, Chris Reed, and Raphie Cantor are joined by returning champion Jason Martinez of Fangraphs Roster Resource to kick off a tradition unlike any other – the annual sweep of the pessimism, optimism, and predictions episodes. As always, this week will begin with the pessimism edition, in which the guys draw up their wildest half-empty scenarios for the 2026 Padres.Want to get this show and tons of others early and ad-free?
