Summary
Busy week of baseball. Streaks snapped, arms shoved, and a couple of fanbases went through it. Matt and Jake run through the Tigers snapping a five-game skid, the Reds finally waking up after eight straight losses, and the Cubs coming back to earth after a 10-game heater and 15 straight at Wrigley. They dig into why the NL Central looks like the best division in baseball right now, how the Rays quietly sit on top of the AL East over the Yankees' gaudy run differential, and why the Astros might actually be cooked in May. You'll also get Tigers injury talk (Skubal's elbow cleanup and all the bullpen days), the state of the AL Central clown show, Padres–Dodgers in the West, and a full beanball segment after Framber dots Trevor Story. New episodes of BD Baseball Weekly Recap drop every week on Burnin' Daylight Sports.
