From 'Baseball Isn't Boring' (subscribe here): All of a sudden, older pitchers are being accepted more than ever in the world of Major League Baseball. Case in point: Yu Darvish signing a six-year deal at ate 36.

Bradfo sits down with San Francisco Giants director of pitching Brian Bannister to explore why teams are now valuing guys in their late 30s and early 40s and when this shift actually happened. Bannister goes on to explain where we are in the evolution of pitching and how throwing hard isn't the be-all, end-all anymore. He also offers an absolute classic David Ortiz story. If you like pitching, this is the podcast you should listen to.
