A field scandal in Texas, the torpedo bat analogy in golf, and TGL expansion

A field scandal in Texas, the torpedo bat analogy in golf, and TGL expansion

This Wednesday episode focuses on two scandals currently unfolding across the sports world. Andy and Brendan! are disappointed to miss out on a First of the Month recording, but are fired up about the field construction for the Valero Texas Open. The field was expanded to 156 players with full status, but would need to shrink to 144 before allowing any alternates into the field. Andy wonders how players on major medicals, career money exemptions, or sponsor exemptions could reasonably jump an alternate such as Hayden Springer, who's currently ranked 78th in the FedEx Cup. From there, the two discuss some fallout from last week's Houston Open after seeing some unfounded criticism of Memorial Park. Picks are made for Valero, as PJ looks to stay hot following his winning selection of Dr. Chipinski. Brendan then prompts Andy for more thoughts on the torpedo bat "scandal" in baseball and how the technologically-advanced equipment can relate to golf. The Schedule for the Week is laid out with an ANWA preview, some LPGA scheduling thoughts, and some groundwork for LIV and Champs Tour discussions on Friday. In news, Dallas is in talks to get a TGL franchise, filling the Luka-sized hole in the city's heart, and Billy Boy picks up a new partner for the Zurich.
