291. All-Star Voting is a Joke

We talk all the things that are wrong with All-Star voting, whether it should be left up to fans, who should really be receiving these votes, why MLB teams are part of the issue, Shohei Ohtani making history with back-to-back games, the awful July 4th hats, looking at the context behind Manny Ramirez’s comments on Derek Jeter that outraged so many people unnecessarily, wondering when it’s time to take the Red Sox seriously and much more. We conclude the episode with The 3-0 Fake # 7: Chemtrails. Enjoy!
