We are barely 10% of the way through this MLB regular season, but Marlins infielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. and left-hander Trevor Rogers have emerged as early NL Rookie of the Year award frontrunners. Ely Sussman describes what’s been working for them thus far, identifies the obstacles that could threaten their candidacies and mentions the other main challengers from across the National League. The episode wraps up with a plea for the Fish to sign free agent Aníbal Sánchez to stabilize their starting rotation.
