In Episode 573, Zach, Jeffrey and Craig indulge in some more ad chat and then discuss five mostly baseball topics.

1. I don’t want this, I don’t need this: Your bi-weekly AL Wild Card update
2. Lot of ways to make money in this world, but I can’t recommend insurance fraud: And a weekly Dodgers financial update
3. Paul is dead: Has the real Paul Skenes been replaced just like McCartney?
4. Around the Horn: The Padres officially have new owners, the Yankees are down one pitcher, and we say a fond farewell to the Jon Bernhardt tweet (and also Trey Mancini)
5. An easy/hard trendy grid
