GREETZ, PEEPZ. We have a fantastical episode for you. Whether you like music and baseball, or baseball and music, there’s something for every one! Here’s how it breaks down:

- The open, where we open

- The emails, where crazy people write to us and we read what they wrote

- The musical guest: This time it’s San Francisco psych-poppers WOODEN SHJIPS. Their fourth full-length, “Back to Land,” is out now on Thrill Jockey. And it’s on Keith Law’s Best of 2013 list. …

- … which is relevant because Keith Law is our guest this week. He talks baseball and music and past, present, and future with us. 

- Then there’s the baseball talk:

• Michael Morse is a giant, both literally and figuratively
• Kevin Towers is gutting his farm system
• Grant Balfour is taking his steakheaded rage to Bawlmore
• Yankees trade money to the DL for Brian Roberts
• Masahiro Tanaka is in limbo
• Raul Ibanez to Los Angeles of Anaheim

- Music Talk: Instead of advice, this episode we disgust our top 10 records of the year. There’s some convergence and some of whatever the other thing would be. 

- Then there are the sad goodbyes until next calendar year! Thank you for everything.
