Middle Of The Order

12 teams down to 8 already. The Padres, Red Sox, Guardians and Reds have all been eliminated by the Yankees, Cubs, Dodgers and Tigers and are heading to the ALDS and NLDS to take on the Blue Jays, Mariners, Phillies and Brewers. Playoff baseball keeps on rolling

We've done it, 162 games in the books as the regular season finished up this weekend and now, its on to the 2025 Postseason. 12 teams enter and only 1 can win it all. 4 teams will be eliminated as early as the end of this week as the Wildcard series is set to start us up. Can the Reds upset the Dodgers, do the Guardians put the nail in the Tigers or will they get the last laugh and how about...

159 games down, 3 to go. One last series and still so much is at stake for the postseason. Mariners and Dodgers both clinched their divisions, and 3 more teams punched their tickets. So for this final weekend, its Jays vs Yankees for the AL East title, Tigers vs Guardians for the AL Central title, and 7 teams fighting for the final 4 spots in the postseason. 3 spots in the AL for Tigers, Guardians...

1 last week of the MLB Season before the postseason, and we still have 7 spots up for grabs for the dance, alongside as all 12 seeding options still available and no one officially locked in to their spot. Mariners handle the Astros and sweep them for a great chance to win the AL West, meanwhile the Guardians won 10 straight victories while the Tigers have lost 6 straight now. The gap in the AL Ce...

9 games, 3 series, 9 spots still up for grabs in the 2025 postseason. A lot to play for still including the Astros and Mariners in a 3 game series that could decide the AL West. In other news that's bigger than baseball itself, Clayton Kershaw announced he will retire after the 2025 season making tonight the last time Kershaw will start a regular season home game at Dodger Stadium. 

Oh boy, as we continue through the month of September, we finally have our first teams punching their tickets to the postseason in the Brewers and Phillies. Meanwhile a Mariners team has ridden a 9 game winning streak into 1st in the AL West, while a slumping Mets team finally ends a 8 game losing streak but is it too late for them?

After a big week of baseball, the Phillies have swept the big 4 game sweep vs the Mets to put their dreams of a NL East champion a reality meanwhile the Mets postseason chances could be on life support. Over on the AL side, the Mariners have won 6 straight to put them tied with the Astros while the Rangers are still lurking close behind

Massive episode today as we go over the August players of the month, as well as taking a look at the Phillies Karan and the Dodgers going from 1 out from a no-hitter, to getting walked off. Division and wildcard races are also heating up with less than 3 weeks to go

We had a really intense week on all accounts, we had pitchers mad, teams upset, managers wanting to strangle the umps. Well maybe not that intense but things are definitely hearing up already in the last month of the season across the league

5 Months down, 1 to go. Welcome to September baseball. All to play for in such little time, which teams and players will catch on fire and lead them to the promise land or on the other hand which teams will slump while players turn cold taking their great years and spoiling them in the end. 

First it was Suarez, then it was Kurtz and now Schwarber. From only 18 players that have had 4 home run games in MLB History, we've had 3 this year. Wild. Meanwhile the Big Dumper gets to 50 and his chase continues. 

In today's episode we talk about the Orioles paying up for their young 20 year old catcher Samuel Basallo, taking a look at how I would restructure MLB with expansion and division realignment, as well as Cal passing Salvy for the most home runs in a single season by a catcher and more. 

Kyle Tucker has continued to struggle since the All-Star break so Craig Counsell said he would be on the bench for a little while, turns out he's had a hairline fracture in his hand and had been playing though it. Interesting. Meanwhile Brewers became the first to 80 wins on the year and the Astros without Hader for a bit make a move and bring in Kimbrel for the bullpen. All this and more on...

The Brewers end their win streak at 14, but is still a new franchise best. Padres enjoyed being first in the NL West for 1 day before getting manhandled by teg Dodgers and with the Brewers and Cubs about to tee of for a 5 game set, this feels like the last chance for the Cubs to have any hope for the NL Central Division and the 1st seed in the NL

What a week in baseball. The Brewers are now winners of 12 straight games and have a 10+ game win streak for the second time this season. The Mets slump continues losers of 13 of their last 15 games, and with the help of the Angels sweeping the Dodgers, the Padres were able to sweep their way past the Giants and into 1st in the NL West. This weekend is the real challenge however as Padres and Dodg...

On today's episode I took a dive down the rabbit hole of a dying era of pitchers, looking at guys like Scherzer, Kershaw and Verlander and how we may never see a big 3 like them again, meanwhile Jen Pawol made her history becoming the first female umpire in a MLB game. 

On today's episode we talk about the July players of the month, Red Sox rookie Roman Anthony gets a healthy extension not even 50 games into his big league career, the Blue Jays put on a display of offense in Coors vs the Rockies making history in the process and so much more to discuss today. 

The Yankees keep making mistakes in their games and its been costing them big time. Our first series post trade deadline provided some crazy action with even crazier results. As teams start to narrow down their players, the postseason race is on. 

What an incredibly chaotic and hectic trade deadline with so many wild moves that no one saw coming. Mason Miller, you are a Padre. Eugenio Suarez, you are a Mariner... again, Cedric Mullins, you are a Met, Carlos Correa, you are an Astro... again. And that's only the tip of the iceberg. Plenty or trades and moves to talk about as we gear up for the dog days of summer. 

Wow wow wow Nick Kurtz game of his career. A 6 for 6 4HR game took the weekend news storm, but that doesn't mean it was the only thing that happened. More trades, new Hall Of Famers inducted, new addition to the betting allegations??? We've got a huge episode to wrap up the month of July. 

Our first couple of trades have happened as the D-Backs send Josh Naylor to the Mariners, the Orioles send Gregory Soto to the Mets, and a live reaction of Ryan McMahon going from the Rockies to the Yankees. How many more trades will happen before the deadline on July 31.

Big series coming up as the trade deadline gets closer and closer. Brewers have won 10 straight games which now has them tied with the Cubs for first in the NL Central. It helps when you sweep the Dodgers twice who continue to struggle which has allowed the Padres to get 4.5 closer to the Dodgers since the start of the month. Tigers became the first team to 60 wins this year. 

Wow, who knew you could miss so much baseball in just a small 2 weeks. But vacation is done and I am back ready to go for the second half of the season. I picked some of the biggest news points over the last 2 weeks to go over in this mega weird but fun episode to recap all the things that were missed including this weeks All-Star festivities from the draft to the derby and game itself. Buckle up...

The month of June as come to an end which means we are over half way done this season. And while I may be taking a small break some teams really need to kick into gear heading into July. A very important month with the all-star and trade deadline looming. Can the Mets shake this form our is this just the start of the collapse. Plus is a 7 game win streak enough for the Marlins to get relevant this...

As we finish up the month of June, the first phase of the always controversial fan voting is complete. Meanwhile more negative fan behavior keeps popping up this year, this time effecting Ketel Marte on the field.
