Episode 21 | February 19, 2016: The Reboot

Feb 19, 2016, 02:00 PM

Check us out on LetsGoTribe.com!

We're back! Jason and I have been working on this for quite some time, so it's exciting to finally reveal the "reboot" of the Let's Talk Tribe podcast. In this newish weekly podcast, we will be discussing everything Indians, baseball, and eventually a bit of post-show extras.

In this "first" episode, officially episode 21, we give our thoughts on the Indians offseason so far, Michael Brantley's return schedule, Spring Training battles, and we try to explain why projections systems seem to love the Indians so much. Listen and marvel as I mouth-breath my way through rambling baseball discussions while Jason provides all the real meaningful analysis.

You can find the episode embedded below, on our Blog Talk Radio page, or soon (hopefully) on iTunes. Feel free to email any feedback, suggestions, or questions to mattr.lyons@gmail.com and/or leave them in the comments below. Let us know what you think!

This week's episode clocks in at 40 minutes.
