## Resource

Spring training has begun, and our annual predictions episode is here. Curt and JR make their picks from "likely" to "spicy" to "controversial" to "insane," trying to imagine how the 2026 season will play out. Topics include Jacob Misiorowski, relief pitching, William Contreras, Joey Ortiz and Jake Bauers. They also discuss the return of catcher Gary Sánchez on a free-agent (!) deal and the gap that still remains at third base.
