1. National Jump to Conclusions Week: Some teams are who we thought they were (derogatory). Some teams are who we thought they were (complimentary). Yankees fans are definitely who we though they were (horny for Waldo).

In Episode 359, Patrick, Jeffrey, and Craig chat about Ohtani and a bunch of NL West moves and then discuss the five teams in the American League East

1. The Yankees are a CBS procedural, we just can’t agree on which one. 
2. The Jays can’t keep getting away with this (winning 90 games and feeling underwhleming every year).
3. The Rays can’t keep getting away with this (turning either Jacob Waguespack or Tyler Anderson into a good 130-inning starter, we aren’t sure which one).
4. Orioles fans can’t believe PECOTA is getting away with this projection.
5. The 2024 Red Sox are getting away with nothing.
