Part 2/9:
Recently, the conversation turned to the ongoing sweepstakes for highly touted Japanese pitcher Roki Sasaki. Unfortunately for Mets fans, the news was not encouraging; the Mets have been informed that they will not be among the finalists vying for Sasaki's services. The finalists now are the Los Angeles Dodgers, San Diego Padres, and Toronto Blue Jays. Samantha and Ashley ponder the likelihood of Sasaki choosing a team, especially leaning away from the Blue Jays, whom they liken to a “bridesmaid” that never quite makes it down the aisle.
