It is Sunday and time for The Sunday Request.
@sullybaseball Here is a Sunday Topic for you, the Odd Numbered Year Curse and Hunter Pence’s broken Arm. Unreal.
— Jim Furlong (@EWOKinLA) March 5, 2015
The Giants lineup is thin enough that losing Pence for any length of time isn’t going to be fun. Man, this even year odd year thing is starting to get creepy! Let’s talk defending champs on The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.
@CblackCHC It happens my friend. Thanks for the concern, it’s a part of the game we love. No slowing down!

I recorded today’s episode along a big empty field in Fremont California.
If everything had gone according to plan, the Athletics would have had their stadium and called this patch of land home. As you can see, it didn’t happen.
It is a “What could have been” episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

Spring Training Games have begun. A change in the baseball schedule can make the Cactus and Grapefruit League games valuable in selecting the All Star Team.

What are match ups we can hope for in the 2015 World Series?
An all expansion team World Series? That has never happened before.
A World Series in Seattle? That has eluded history.
Or what about match up between original franchises that we have never seen?

The Dodgers have a shot to win the World Series this year. But will they fix their bullpen? Should they make a big move? Recent World Series winners suggest maybe they shouldn’t.

Newsflash! Pablo Sandoval is not a thin man.
Maybe Red Sox fans should have made a mental note of that before freaking out after Steve Silva of Boston.com posted the picture seen above.
Also, evidently, Yankee fans did not cheer when A-Rod homered in the 2009 post season. Who knew?
That and other surprising facts on this episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

10 years ago, Jason Giambi gave one of the strangest press conferences in baseball history. Even though I am a Red Sox fan, I found the surreal presser to be oddly endearing and sympathetic and made me see Giambi for what he was: A big dumb lovable lug.
Meanwhile today, A-Rod is apologizing to the Yankees, who SHOULD be welcoming him with open arms.
Over in Boston, their outfield is crowded as hell. Don’t worry. Time will sort it out.
East Coast Bias? Maybe for today on The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

If the 1969 Cubs won the World Series, they would have been the most beloved champ of all time.
Which other teams would have been the most embraced by their fans? The 1971 Giants? The 1978 Red Sox?
I think of that and give much respect to my former boss, Bonnie Hunt, and her wonderful mom Alice on today’s episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.
Here is the video of Bonnie and Alice singing with Ernie Banks.
