Effectively Wild Episode 2468: The Baseball Barometer

EWFI [http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/ewlogofi.png] Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley banter about Scott Boras talking turkey, a heartwarming player-fan interaction, two more unintentional challenges, the depths of the Mets’ predicament after their 11-game losing streak, whether Munetaka Murakami [https://www.fangraphs.com/players/munetaka-murakami/37120/stats/batting] can keep up his hot, extreme start, whether hitters should stop swinging against Mason Miller [https://www.fangraphs.com/players/mason-miller/31757/stats/pitching], whether government regulation can improve sports streaming, and the nature of on-base streaks, then Stat Blast (1:32:34) about NL and AL Central standings oddities, the longest periods out of first place, and scoring coming all in one inning, plus (1:44:34) several follow-ups and bonus blasts.

Effectively Wild Episode 2466: Turn Off the Tap?

EWFI [http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/ewlogofi.png] Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley banter about Kevin McGonigle’ [https://www.fangraphs.com/players/kevin-mcgonigle/33572/stats/batting]s new contract and whether pre-arbitration extensions are still team-friendly, Tatsuya Imai [https://www.fangraphs.com/players/tatsuya-imai/37124/stats/pitching]’s adjustment period, MLB’s average four-seam fastball velo nearing 95 mph, a new frontier in catcher’s interference calls, and whether a new challenge signal should replace the head/helmet tap, then (1:21:02) Stat Blast about a historic scoring day, games in which the score most often matched the inning, homering against all other teams while playing for one team (and the most homers without going deep twice against the same team), opposing pitchers catching pop-ups in the same game, driving in oneself and no one else, and season-starting streaks of games with a lead.
