Ep. 253: Is USA’s WBC Roster the Weak?

This week on Long Gone:

On this week’s episode of Long Gone, the boys debate Team USA’s World Baseball Classic roster, questioning whether it’s one of the weaker squads in recent memory and if it will be enough to compete with the stacked teams from Japan and the Dominican Republic.

They then continue their Then & Now series, each selecting their top five center fielders of the 1990s and comparing them with their top five center fielders in today’s game.

The conversation also turns to Ken Griffey Jr.’s impact on 1990s baseball, reflecting on how his superstar presence and clean reputation may have helped shape how that era is remembered amid the PED scandals.

They round out the show with Collection Corner.
