Had the homie Josh Hejka on, victim of a Franchy Cordero 116+ EV batted ball, along with all the other current titles he holds in the title of this episode. Hejka's one of the smartest, most self-aware players I know, chill af to sit down with him and hear him riff bluntly on the state of analytics in minor league baseball, his experience going through rehab, and adding to his always evolving arsenal. Enjoy and let me know if you enjoy the player episodes, will try to have a bunch more here soon.
