On this episode of Three Up, Three Down, Rob Wong gives his thoughts on what exactly is going on between manager John Schneider and starting pitcher Eric Lauer, if the time has finally come to replace Jeff Hoffman as closer, and who could be the odd man out once George Springer is ready to return from his fractured toe.
