Listen now
Description
Welcome back for Season 2 of the Small Hall Baseball Podcast! This week we discuss the biggest awards given out for the 2023 MLB season. Did we think the best Rookies, Managers, Pitchers, and the MVPs were worthy or perhaps a little head scratching? We introduce a new segment, replacing our Phillies discussions, were we discuss an event that occurred this week in history in the baseball world Our Hall of Famer this week is late 19th century two-way player John Montgomery "Monte" Ward. We couldn't all agree on whether this early pitcher turned full time fielder was a worthy election, but did we think he deserved to stay put? For our parting shots we discuss the parting of Rhys Hoskins from the Phillies, putting the team before any of its players, and a tribute to the greatness of Ryan Howard. Please join us as we discuss baseball topics and we continue our mission to make The Hall small. We hope you'll enjoy the ride.
