Harper, Team USA’s WBC letdown, and baseball’s ABS future
Episode 213
Wednesday, 18 March, 2026
Chuck and Ken dive deep into an emotionally charged baseball conversation, starting with Bryce Harper’s clutch home run and the bigger question behind it: should fans feel reassured, or concerned? From there, they examine Team USA’s offensive collapse against better pitching, compare the urgency and energy of other countries like Venezuela, and debate whether this tournament exposed flaws in a slug-first roster. They also revisit Mark DeRosa’s controversial handling of the pitching staff, discuss how MLB teams influence international play by restricting pitcher availability, and explore how the incoming ABS challenge system could reshape pitch framing, in-game strategy, and late-game drama. The episode closes with Phillies talk and a quick look ahead to the NFL Draft http://speakingofsportspod.com/https://twitter.com/Speak_of_Sportshttps://www.facebook.com/SpeakingofSportsPodhttps://www.instagram.com/speaking_of_sports/https://www.tiktok.com/@speakingofsports
