## Resource

Every week, Newsletter Wiggz sits down with Bradfo for 'The Stack', a chat on Wiggz's Baseball Isn't Boring Substack, covering all the things baseball fans might want to talk about. This time around, the conversation is dominated by the 'Tarps Off' phenomenon, which Bradfo has been not only reporting on, but also thinking a lot about lately. Wiggz also volunteers to take a 100 mph first pitch from Joe Kelly in the ribs.
