Toeing The Slab with David Cone

David, Justin and James are all over the rosin saga that has caught the attention of every team. How does MLB establish a firm level of an allowable substance for pitchers? David touches on his Sunday Night Baseball experiment with the rosin and alcohol. The group also dives into the Rays historical start, the toughest pitch-types for young MLB hitters, Shohei Ohtani’s pitching schedule and which pitching staffs are currently overachieving? In the Yankees chat, is Giancarlo Stanton’s return going to be enough for New York’s offense? And Coney breaks down the progress he’s seen in Clarke Schmidt and Jhony Brito.
