Inside The Mind Of D. Scott

It's the final episode of 2025 so let's take some time to reflect on the year that way and the evolution of what this podcast has become over the past few months. Thank you to everyone that takes time to listen to what I have to say week after week. Without you and your support, it's just me sitting in a room talking to myself for an extended period of time.

Happy Holidays to all! Not a whole lot of baseball stuff going on with The Yankees at the moment, there is some and that will be discussed on the show, but I thought I'd chime in on the GOAT discussion when it comes to the NBA this week. Is it Jordan? Is it Lebron? I'd say the title of this episode gives my answer away at this point. But let's talk about the impact that Jordan had on the game when...

Not a whole lot going on in the world of the Yankees right now. Nothing happened at The Winter Meetings for the team. Nothing really goin with any of the MLB teams out side of a few free agent signings. That being said there are a few things to talk about like Jeff Kent getting into the HOF, Yankees fans being spoiled and more. Oh and the talk of a possible Jazz trade. I'll give my thoughts on wha...

Winter meetings are starting today so let's hope that The Yankees make some moves and don't just sit back and let everyone else cook. Other than that, this week I'm talking about Devin Williams signing with The Mets, Sonny Gray and his foolish comments and also Josh Reddick saying that Altuve didn't use "the system" that The Astros had in place during the 2017 season. Thank you all for your contin...

It's the post Thanksgiving show. So let's talk about what Hal Steinbrenner had to say about The Yankees and their financial "situation". Apparently it's not fair for us to think that the team is turning a profit? Alriiighty?? I also talk about some moves that the team could make in the off-season and some possible trades that may come about. Want to learn about or purchase 9Strap Technology? CLICK...

Let's talk about some of the off season action that's already been happening for The Yankees! From Trent accepting the QO bringing him back to the Bronx for 2026 to the guys that the team is letting walk to a few of the guys that the team is holding on to for next season. I'll talk about some possible trades that may or may not happen as well. If you're interested in finding out about 9Strap Techn...

As I predicted, Aaron Judge won the 2025 American League MVP. It was close but at the end of the day the right person won. Let's break down what I think happened and why Judge won the award. I'll dive into the NL MVP and give some thoughts about what happened there and also compare the NL award and the AL award. I'll also break down what MVP actually means, historically. Overall, it's a really fun...

What Cal Raleigh did this season was absolutely amazing and historic BUT so is what Aaron Judge did. The 2nd part of that sentence seems to be forgotten and not talked about all that much. Judge was able to do something that only 2 other MLB players have ever done in the history of the game. Yet all the conversations that you hear are about Cal hitting 60 HR's as a catcher. Amazing? Yes. MVP worth...

It's another episode of the pod and we're talking about my trip to NYC for my birthday weekend, we're talking about the end of the 2025 MLB Season, we're talking about what the off-season looks like for The Yankees and more.

Let's talk some baseball!!! Chatting about The Dodgers, The Blue Jays, The Mariners and their fans and of course The Yankees! We'll chat about what LA and it's ownership is doing right for the team. We'll talk about The Blue Jays and their arrogance. The fact that people seem to forget that George Springer was on the Astros team that was cheating. I'll talk about Othani and his amazing performance...

The 2025 season ends in the same fashion that the 2024 season did, with disappointment. The Yankees were exposed by The Blue Jays. They were out played in damn near every aspect of the game. Changes need to happen this offseason. I'll talk about what changes I think we need to see. I'll break down the weaknesses of the offense, the coaching and more. Yes, I do have some positive things to say abou...

The Yankees were able to take out Boston in a 3 game Wild Card series and aside from the game 1 loss, the boys looked great! Let's talk about the series as a whole. The things that I loved about it and some of the not so great stuff as well. Of course I have to talk about the amazing pitching performance in Game 3 by Cam Schlittler! Hope you enjoy the episode. If you're interested in getting a 9St...

It's the final day of the 2025 regular season and the AL East comes down to today! Game number 162 will decide is The Yankees win the division or if they have to play in a WC Series. I talk about that, I talk about all the things that I'm seeing from The Yankees going into the playoffs. I talk more about the season that Aaron Judge has had and the history that he has made. Yes, Cal Raleigh has had...

Time once again to chat about this past week in Yankees baseball. The team is looking much better, granted they're playing teams that aren't that "good" but they still need to win the games and so far, for the most part they are. Bullpen has looked better, at least some of the guys, they're scoring runs and playing better baseball. Had to chime in on the A.L. MVP race which really isn't a race but...

Sorry about having to take last weeks show down. I explain what happened in this episode! That being said, let's talk Yankees baseball. I'll touch on the Jays and Astros series. Get into a little bit about the series against Detroit and also game 1 against Boston. I lean heavy into how bad Aaron Boone is as the leader of this team. How badly he handles almost every situation on the field and off....

The Yankees have won every game they played this past week but they're doing it against teams they're supposed to beat (which is good btw) however we're headed into some really big series against teams that are above .500. There are some things that I've noticed that need to be addressed by the team, they won't be but they should, including what Anthony Volpe is doing at the plate. Yes, we've seen...

Back from vacation and right back at it with another podcast about the NY Yankees! Oh sure, I'm going to talk a little bit about my time at Disney with the family but then it's right into breaking down all the nonsense that I'm still seeing with the Yankees. Bad baseball night in and night out. Their terrible approach at the plate, their inability to score runs when they don't hit the ball out of...

On this episode I'll break down the Yankees series against The Twins and give you my thoughts about what I saw during each of the games. Decisions made by Aaron Boone that proved costly, what I saw in some of the at bats from specific players and more. I'll even give you some quick thoughts about their win over The Cardinals in their 1st game of that series. I also give you my thoughts about team...

Let's talk Yankees baseball, shall we? Starting pitching needs to be much better! Our starters are not getting nearly as deep into games as we need them to be. They have to be better. I'll talk about Devin Williams and his struggles, what the guys at Old Timers Day had to say about the team and it's leadership, what I'm seeing from Jazz Chisolm Jr. and Austin Wells, Anthony Volpe and the hustle th...

Another week, another show! This week let's talk about what the Yankees were able to pull off at the trade deadline. They got some great arms to solidify the bullpen (minus the hiccup against the Marlins) on top of the MLB leader in stolen bases. I'm also going to break down Anthony Volpe and his recent power surge. Why am I seeing something different than what others are seeing? I go into depth d...

Another week, another Yankees filled episode. Thank you for checking out the show! Let's talk about some of the moves that the Yankees made this week. My lack of trust in the front office and their decisions and the fact that most, if not all, of their issues actually start at the top. If you're a Yankees fan, you're going to either agree with what I'm saying or think I'm an idiot. I'm fine either...

Thank you once again for checking out the show! On this episode we start off with a happy birthday dedication to my youngest daughter who is celebrating her 18th birthday. I talk about my relationship with not only Madi but also with Robyn and Tara. Then I dive into being a part of the dress shopping that my girls had to do for the wedding. I talk about Tara and our relationship a bit as well. The...

Back after a week away, D. Scott recaps his week in Providence, Rhode Island and so much more! He's talking about his daughter's last dance Nationals, saying goodbye to competitive dance for his daughter, spending a few minutes with Nice and Smooth and then he gets into Yankees baseball. As you can tell by the title of the episode, he's not a fan of Aaron Boone. If you want to know his thoughts??...

Matt Hallock, the mastermind behind Hallock's Hitting Garage, joins the show to talk about some baseball and or softball stuff. Specifically, hitting. Things that you or your athlete should be doing before you step into the batters box and of course once you're in the box. From a coaching perspective, how to prepare your athlete for when they get in the box. Teaching them how to do the things that...

Let's talk about the week that was in my life. From Father's Day to the Juneteenth Celebration I was a part of to my daughter's graduation party to a 50 birthday celebration and more. Why yes, that was one big run on sentence but whatever. Thanks for listening! I hope you enjoy the show.
