“Gleeman and The Geek” #8: Pohlad, Payroll, and Power Arms
This week's episode of "Gleeman and The Geek" was recorded at Bunny's Bar and Grill in St. Louis Park and my beer of choice was Surly Bender, while John Bonnes continued to make a mockery of the whole concept by drinking water. And for the second time in five episodes a random woman at the bar interrupted the podcast and sat down with us, although sadly this week's unexpected guest was significantly less interesting than our first groupie.
Topics included preparing for a payroll drop, hoping for Denard Span, dueling diets, betting on Joe Nathan, looking back at the terrible bullpen, parsing Jim Pohlad's quotes, Pulitzer Prize winners, acquiring power arms, missing Ozzie Guillen, improving the injury situation, trusting prospects, the level at which a sample size is no longer too small, how much to fear the Tigers, and revisiting Delmon Young.
