The Bloop Single: Recent Episodes
Rob and Ryan
Rob and Ryan are long time friends and even longer time Diamondbacks fans. Listen to them discuss the most interesting aspects of the Arizona Diamondbacks baseball season on a weekly basis. Follow along @bloopsingleaz.
This is the episode where Ketel Marte got hurt mid-recording. And Josh Rojas is struggling to fill a starting role after the first 6 games after Rob claimed him to be the breakout player of the year. Seriously, Rob...stop jinxing the players! Also...Ryan isn't in tears about the Dbacks start of the season because....his fandom is in question? There is no room for "perspective" in baseball, dude!
Opening Day is almost here for the Arizona Diamondbacks and the roster is rounding into form. Each day brings news of a player being sent down - "deserves" got nothing to do with it! Rob enjoys the growth shown by Josh Rojas at the plate and Ryan introduces fan's to the future of the outfield: Alec Thomas. Guest starring Nutmeg the dog...for like 20 seconds, despite Ryan's best efforts.
Kole Calhoun is out with a knee injury, but that doesn't mean we are looking for a Right Fielder. Step inside the mind of Rob as he shuffles the deck and buys a 13" mitt for every middle infielder on the Dbacks' roster. Meanwhile, Ryan find a new stat to measure real success in Spring Training...basically you can take your .500 batting average and keep walkin'. Special Guest: Nutmeg the dog.
And so it begins... Rob & Ryan are back again with an all new season talking Arizona Diamondbacks baseball. Things are moving fast with 1 game already in the books. Pitching Velocity up! Temperature Down on a blustery Sunday. And Travis Bergen already on his way out (legit...that happened during the game)
The Dbacks are not throwing away their shot...right? In the first podcast since Hamilton hit Disney+, Rob and Ryan roll out the bunting and celebrate Opening Day. The SD Padres play host to our beloved Diamondbacks. Ryan dissects MadBum's performance and Rob does his best to talk less...and smile more.
