Fittingly titled, "Called Up" Full of stories about MLB lifers, players who stopped for a cup of coffee in the bigs, and some who may have only been called up a few times without impact. We talk all things divided loyalty in baseball, favorite moments, and harmless pranks. Plus, Malice Domestic roundup, my sadness at the Casas injury, and of course publishing news!
