HE’S COMING BACK! The Phillies have done what 138% of their fanbase have been clamoring for since the summer: they’re going to #SignJT.
Sources have told just about every sportswriter in the country that the Phillies and catcher J.T. Realmuto have agreed to a five-year contract worth $115.5 million. That number would give Realmuto’s contract the largest annual average value of any catcher in Major League history.
As promised in October, the guys recorded an emergency podcast in response to the signing. Listen below, or on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Amazon Music, Spotify, Stitcher, and more.
A Chat with Dave Shaw, aka @UKPhillies – The Boo Birds Podcast
This week, the guys talk a little basketball and a little baseball before John has a chat with Dave Shaw, better known on Twitter as @UKPhillies. Dave visited Philadelphia in 2012 and fell in love with baseball and the Phillies, and has gone to great lengths to grow fandom of the game – and the Phillies – in Great Britain.
You can follow Dave on Twitter at @UKPhillies and check out his podcast, Broad Street to Britain, as well.
Be sure to follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram at @BooBirdsPodcast and visit our website, BooBirdsPodcast.com! Plus, leave us a five-star review on Apple Podcasts and you could win a Chase Utley bobblehead from John's collection (open to U.S. residents only because John has to pay for postage).
