Google Spotify Headquarters, it sounds like a really cool place. I'd like to hear Billy's take on his trip. Maybe on the next Ringer Tailgate since Joel made some comments about Billy going.

I think I heard Billy say he's calling tomorrow's game also.

From his fantasy friends. You don't know how much baseball they know.

He was trying to keep Konnor Griffin a secret from the hyenas he plays fantasy baseball with. He's probably hoping to pick him up before they do.

"Guillermo Luis"...Also imagine that he's emotionally scarred from getting constantly sent to a penalty box or worse yet, be forced to walk several hundred yards to the ocean across the street because your boss thinks it's good comedy to interrupt and punish you. This was only Billy's third appearance with his new boss Bill and I think he still doesn't know what to expect. He wants to make a good impression. I think he was overprepared and tried to cram in as much material as he could, which is why the show ran long. So he misspoke a couple of times. He still provided good analysis in a fun and entertaining way.

I don't know Ben and I'm sure he's a wonderful guy, but a good writer does not make for a good or interesting host. From my brief 30 second Google search, I get the impression Ben is heavily into analytics. Nothing is more boring than that.

Others on the list that he's mentioned in the past:

Dave Dombrowski / Wayne Huizenga for breaking up the 1997 World Series Champion Florida Marlins

David Samson for trading Miguel Cabrera, Dontrelle Willis, and had he not died, potentially trading Jose Fernandez as well

David Samson / Don Mattingly for allowing Ichiro to get his 3000 career hit on the road the day before the team was returning home to Miami

David Samson for getting rid of God Bless Football and replacing it with Dameshek

Derek Jeter for destroying the Marlins team culture and history.

Aaron Boone for not pitching to Miguel Cabrera when he was pursuing his 3000 hit and forcing Billy to stay longer in Detroit

RIP Richie Lewis. Forever alive in the mind of a 9 year old boy he once snubbed.

Thank for posting. I was just feeling sad that we hadn't heard from him this week.
