The Just Baseball Show

Peter and Jack are back with Top 10 Tuesdays, but with a twist. They have two separate lists to go over, the Top 5 "Chapter One" managers and the Top 5 "Seasoned" managers. There are so many great managers with a multitude of accomplishments, so the duo decided to separate them. Olympians Katie Ledecky and Simone Biles are running up the score in Tokyo. Adam Frazier was sent to the Padres for thre...

Peter, Jack, and Aram talk about National League buyers, sellers, and players being targeted in talks between teams. Old Hoss Radbourn's 1884 season on the mound will blow your mind. Jack has a bunch of old baseball cards, so they play, "Is this card worth more than $5?" See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jack and Peter will never stop ranking things; this time, it's the designated hitter. No point in judging them on their fielding, so this episode is just about hitting. Hint on #1: He's a pitcher and leads the league in home runs. Director of Analytics Colby Olson joins the show to talk about his article "MLB Second Half Team Projections: Who Should Buy or Sell?" He explains the formulas used and...

Jack & Peter sit down with fellow Syracuse University Alum Bob Costas, legendary sportscaster and 28 time Emmy award winner. They discuss his Top 5 Players of all time, sticky substances, the globalization of baseball, and so much more. Peter also called the Home Run Derby "the most electric sporting event he's ever been to" and gives you an explanation of why that is. The AL has won 19 of their l...

Peter and Jack have some "Honorable-Honorable-Honorable-Mentions" before they get into the top 10 outfielder list. They've never done this many honorable mentions, but it felt necessary for how many guys deserved to be talked about. The duo also goes over some of their favorite/least favorite picks after the first couple rounds of the MLB Draft + a full review on what Peter saw at the MLB Futures...

Peter & Jack are joined by the newly titled "Director of Analytics" Colby Olson and "Chief Meme Officer/Staff Writer/Movie Guy" Javier Reyes of justbaseball.com. The four guys go over the surprising and disappointing players and teams of the MLB season's first half, touching on pretty much every big leaguer in the process. Shohei Ohtani vs. Bo Jackson is discussed before diving into Colby's articl...

Peter & Jack have plenty to say about the All-Star starters. So many snubs and storylines to go over, and Peter gets riled up about Cedric Mullens. There are a lot of outfielders to rank. Five players didn't make this list due to injury (30 game minimum), and there are seven honorable mentions. Then, the duo does the Top 20 outfielders by starting with #20-11, saving 10-1 for Tuesday's episode.  F...

After Jack & Peter interviewed Soledad O'Brien, it's time to bring in the CEO of the company that everyone in baseball is talking about. They are joined by Michael Schwimer, the Founder and CEO of Big League Advance. Michael mentioned that the Real Sports feature on BLA did not depict his full story, so Jack & Peter sat down to give him free rein to explain his side. Jack fell into a Youtube rabbi...

Peter & Aram go over the Corey Dickerson for Joe Panik trade that shocked the league. Not really, but Aram is the Marlins and Prospects guy, so he breaks it down + the good and the bad with the Marlins. GM of the Yankees Brian Cashman says "We suck right now". Let's talk about it. Questions found on our Q/A button on Tik Tok @justbaseballfans 1. Who do you believe are the best relievers on the mar...

Jack & Peter postponed the Top 20 Outfielders Episode to fill out their All-Star Ballots. The National League shortstop & catcher position are pretty easy, as is the American League DH. The National League third baseman, not so easy. Peter had fun watching Kumar Rocker in Omaha but fell apart emotionally watching the Yankees get swept. Did you know 11.4% of Yankees' baserunners have scored this se...

Fernando Tatis Jr. scored a huge chunk of change when he inked his 14 years/$340 million contract back in February, and once he signed the dotted line, so did the folks at Big League Advance. Big League Advance was created back in 2016, and the company has since serviced 350 aspiring big leaguers on their journey to the MLB. Soledad O’Brien, a correspondent for Real Sports on HBO with Bryant Gumbe...

Jacob deGrom is back from "injury" and is still the greatest pitcher on earth, so Jack and Peter have to talk about it. Bill James proposed some unique new rules for baseball and the duo reacts accordingly.   The Top 10 Third Baseman list is just as loaded as the shortstops, so we spent a lot of time on it. We have Honorable-Honorable Mentions, the Honorable Mentions, and of course, the Top 10.  ...

Jack and Aram gush over the top prospect in the sport, and decide that the way he's rated is bizarre. Solution to come. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Peter, Jack & Aram answer questions from the Tik Tok (@justbaseballfans) "Q'A" button.  Any change in opinion on the Red Sox fact or fluke video? @pizza770 What do you think of Adley Rutschsman, and what do you think about the future of the Orioles? @rodgymatt9 Thoughts on Austin Martin and Jordan Groshans and the Blue Jays farm system leading into the future? @harmnasty Thoughts on the recent 10...

Peter isn't happy. The Yankees got swept by the Red Sox/Umpires. Jack corrects Peter's interpretation of the exciting USA v. Mexico soccer game. Logan Paul looked jacked and lasted 8 rounds against the greatest boxer ever in Floyd Mayweather. Jacob deGrom is the best hitter on the Mets, and best pitcher in the world and should be the front-runner for NL MVP. We spent so much time on this second ba...

Aram and Jack know that Stephanie Apstein and Alex Prewitt's SI article on pitch doctoring just changed the game. Now, where are we heading? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Peter & Jack have a lot to unpack, starting with the Chicago Cubs. Are they for real? A move for a Starting Pitcher could help. After, Top 3 trade targets on offense and on the mound. They touched on the Acuna interview and Bob Brenly's words against Marcus Stroman. Ending in an agreement on the NL Rookie of the Year and picks 4-6 of the MLB Mock Draft.  Follow us on Twitter: @peterappel23, @jack_...
