The All-Star game is almost upon us, a chance for baseball fans to take a step back from the grind of supporting their team and come together to celebrate the best players in MLB...or so we thought? The past couple of years has seen a rise in undeserved players making it in with a chance of getting to the ASG through the dreaded Fan Vote! Last year Ronald Acuna Jr started the game despite having o...

As we inch closer and closer to a lockout, Gaz and Cal discuss yet another wrinkle that needs to be ironed out - that being the MLB Draft!

Gaz has been a baseball fan for 4 seasons now and still doesn't understand what makes a good baseball rivalry.....but hopefully this episode can help!

It’s Week 11 of the Roundup and Cal takes the lead, as he guides Gaz and the rest of our listeners on a whistle stop tour of all things Baseball!

It's time for a bit of a change-up and this time the lads have done a positional ranking episode! So join George & Gaz as they rank all 30 MLB Teams' middle infields! The middle infield is arguably the core of the positional group - with the Shortstop leading the defence and the 2nd Baseman having to show multiple defensive characteristics! Therefore we thought we would rank each tea...

Can you feel the animosity in the air? Well if not then you obviously didn't watch this past weekend of MLB action as it was 'Rivalry Weekend'!

Expansion talk is all the craze in 2026, especially with MLB's consistent focus on making MLB a 32-team league in the near future!

The lore with a Brit Does Baseball and the Portland Sea Dogs is almost as old as our podcast itself! Almost a year ago, Cal confused Portland Oregon with Portland Maine, and instead of realising his mistake and apologising (like he should have done), he instead doubled down and thus began his rivalry with the Portland Sea Dogs! Well, as a way of atoning for his attitude, Gaz reached out to the Gen...

It's been a week of change in MLB - as the Red Sox unexpectedly got rid of long-time manager Alex Cora this past weekend! After the slow start for the Sox, Alex Cora was relieved of his duties following Boston's 17-1 win against the Orioles.

So why are teams locking down these...

What's it like being a fan of the New York Mets? They have the richest owner in all of baseball in Steve Cohen, signed a generational talent in Juan Soto and yet still decide to randomly hit a 10 game losing streak in the first 3 weeks of the season!
