With Eric off covering the Aussie women’s championship, Rolsey takes the reins and dives into the newly released WBC pools — including who he thinks is in the real group of death.

This week on The Weekend Pickoff, Rolsey, Eric, and Spoon recap a big week in baseball and unpack Eric’s Avalanche… which turned out to be more of a light dusting. Spoon questions whether Eric’s health insurance covers the weight he’s had to carry so far, while Rolsey makes a ‘Zebras in America’ reference. The boys dish out their picks for the weekend ahead, and Spoon tries to find the silver lining in one of his preseason calls going sideways. Baseball, banter, and bold predictions — it’s all here!
