The Giants are going 162-0! The boys dissect the first two games and make season long predictions from way too little information. Is the battle for the fifth spot in the rotation already settled? Will a Giant win MVP and ROY?! Is robots taking over the world actually a good thing? Well, according the one brother the answers are yes, yes and yes. Obviously.
