Published: Jan. 26, 2022, 8:16 a.m.

As the MLB Lockout continues, some changes are set to take place in AAA with the implementation of robot umpires, and Mike and Jon discuss the pros and cons, what it means for pitchers moving between the major and the minors, and Jered Weaver's take on the idea. (6:01) Speaking of negotiations, there's been some interesting compromises brought to the bargaining table, and the Bros. share their unfiltered thoughts on what's at stake for the future of the game. (14:22) Then, sit down, because we need to talk about shortstop. The Halo Bros. look at the Angels' options for the middle infield, and Jon shares some thoughts from Rob of the 4 Train Savages podcast (@FourSavages), who provides his take on former Yankee Tyler Wade and how he might contribute this season. (27:59) We've all seen the tweet from legend Rod Carew regarding his allegiance to the Halos and the Minnesota Twins, but what do Mike and Jon make of his statement about the Angels not involving him with the team? What does this say about the past, present, and future of the Los Angeles Angels? (38:29) The team added a new member in the form of Trey Hillman, who will work in the organization's player development and seems to be a nice get! (48:44) Then, take us back to 2008 with a festival of our own; forget "When We Were Young," we're going to "When We Were Good!" (51:19) Finally, the brothers share their thoughts on David Ortiz's election to the Hall of Fame and the snub of Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens.
