Ben Verlander welcomes back Atlanta Braves legend & MLB Hall of Famer John Smoltz to Flippin' Bats. Ben and John discuss a loaded AL MVP race and who is currently in the lead. They also discuss whether or not Pittsburgh Pirates' Paul Skenes should be an MLB All-Star and what the Chicago Cubs & Toronto Blue Jays should do at the trade deadline after lackluster starts to the season. Smoltz also gives his favorite Willie Mays story.

I was hoping to hear more about Ohtani tho...

[@corbencarter-dixon5758]

Nothing like hearing John Smoltz’s thoughts on the game itself. Always enjoy hearing him out.

[@Elephant2024-wi2li]

Great to see the Saturday with Smoltz segment return. A little over a week away from the All Star break and most of the teams are still in contention. Should be a wild ride.

[@FlippinBatsPod]

It's going to make for an interesting trade deadline

[@vannethvon2066]

Where's alex?

[@billytumorenito]

José Ramírez should be the mvp!! Simply as that

[@ianrl_]

I doubt judge and soto split votes bc judge has created a clear difference between the 2 so far

[@scottbryan455]

To me the AL MVP is likely either Judge or Henderson. I think much of it comes down to how their teams finish in the standings.

[@billytumorenito]

And Ramirez !! Who has the best record ? And who play better defense and who has better number than him ?

[@spacedude1145]

@@billytumorenitoRamirez just isn’t winning this year.
