#46 – MLB Opening Week Preview with Dewayne Staats

One of baseball's all-time great play-by-play men, Tampa Bay’s Dewayne Staats rejoins Glenn Klein Online to talk all things baseball and to preview the 2021 season which starts this week.

The episode commences with the guys discussing this year’s broadcast protocols, the on-air chemistry between Dewayne and Brian Anderson, and his most memorable calls. Then we hear about: the Rays possibly retiring Evan Longoria’s and Joe Maddon’s jersey numbers, Len Kasper’s decision to leave the Cubs for the White Sox, tough-luck managers, Kevin Cash’s decision to takeout Blake Snell in Game 6 of the World Series, the trade of Snell to the Padres, the vibe in Rays’ Spring Training Camp, replacing Nick Anderson, Cliff Floyd’s past influence on the team, Willy Adames, Tyler Glasnow, Ryan Yarbrough, Wander Franco, Texas Rangers’ full capacity home opener, Montreal and the Rays, the coming American League Eastern Division season, plus so much more. It ain’t going to be boring.
