Quick disclaimer off the top: Eric’s mic decided to have an absolute shocker for this one, but we forged on because the baseball waits for no one.

The boys are back together for the Weekend Pickoff, and before we get anywhere near the actual baseball, Eric decides to audition a brand new theme song inspired by this week’s World Cup Destiny Theme Team. It is exactly as polished as you would expect.

From there, we check in on Destiny Draft, recap where things stand, and remind everyone to follow along at baseballexpats.com by clicking the Destiny Draft leaderboard on the homepage.

Then we touch on a little bit of early trade deadline news as the season starts to take shape, before Spoon gives us his best tips for the weekend slate.

Enjoy the weekend, enjoy the baseball, and enjoy a massive few days of sport.

The boys are all back together, and this week we get into the World Cup spirit.

First up, the Scottish fans basically take over Fenway Park on Sunday Night Baseball, which sends us into a chat about football crowds, baseball crowds, and what MLB can learn from a proper tournament atmosphere.

From there, we talk about the madness of four World Cup draws in a single day, how rare that is, and whether there’s a baseball version of a similar ilk.

Then we stay on theme and build a World Cup-inspired MLB theme team, because apparently this is what happens when baseball guys watch too much football.

Spoon closes us out with his best tips for the slate.

Head to baseballexpats.com to follow along with Destiny Draft, and we’ll be back Friday for the Weekend Pickoff.
