The boys are back, it's frteezing in Adelaide, and Spoon might genuinely be the only person on earth who owns an Arizona Diamondbacks sweatshirt. The good news is it’s working: Spoon’s D-backs are absolutely flying in Destiny Draft.

We kick off with a quick Destiny Draft update and a couple of new toys on baseballexpats.com:

• the live scoreboard: https://www.baseballexpats.com/blog/destiny-draft-2026-live-scoreboard
• the new Destiny Draft points database (search any player and see their points under our scoring system): https://www.baseballexpats.com/blog/destiny-draft-player-database

Also: there’s a new rip next Monday, so if you want to be the listener picker for next week (or any round this season), hit us up through baseballexpats.com.

Then we get into the curious case of Mike Trout, who is, without a shadow of a doubt, the best modern player to never win a playoff game. Rolsey dives into just how absurd the numbers are, and it’s somehow even worse than you remember.

After that it’s time for the third and final Alphabet Theme Team. This week is J through P, and we get agonisingly close to taking down our Q through Z monster. Do we do it? You’ll have to listen.

Eric leaves early as per usual, and Spoon finishes the episode with his best picks for the midweek MLB slate.
