Former Red Sox hitting coach Dave Magadan joins the show to reminisce about the 2007 World Champs and give some insight into what made Manny, Big Papi and Pedroia such great hitters. Before that, Tim and Lars rant about MLB's decision to cut the Draft from 40 rounds to 5. They debate the implications on college baseball and the future impact on the big leagues. The guys also discuss the proposal to return to the diamond in July and how money could become a bigger issue than COVID-19.
