The Nephews

Hey Baseball Fans! We are back after a brief Irish hiatus and what a time in New York baseball it is. Both teams continue to roll, but there is reason for concern. This episode was recorded moments after Max Scherzer pulled himself out of Wednesday's game. While we now know (spoiler alert) that he will miss significant time, we still think this Mets team is still very impressive and we break...

So, funny story, we recorded this episode nearly a month ago on the last night of the lockout. We had no idea that the MLBPA and MLB would actually figure it out and end the lockout the very next day. So I've been sitting on this episode for a while now and instead of throwing it away as old news, we'll publish it now. If you're interested in what really went on during the 99-day lo...

And so are we. The Nephews return upon the lifting of the lockout and the wild condensed free agency period we just witnessed. Who plays for what team now? We touch on all of the major deals.

Thank you for your patience while we took the lo...

Baseball fans, wake up! I know the lockout has us all bummed, but this is a very important week for the history of our game and how the last 30 seasons will be remembered. The voting for the 2022 Hall of Fame ballot is all but wrapped up and will be revealed in just a few days. This is the most controversial ballot of all time.

And then the clock struck midnight on Wednesday and the lockout began. We review the Mets' epic spending spree of course, but we use the bulk of this installment to talk about the CBA. What are the iss...

Happy Thanksgiving, baseball fans! We took a break from our break to quickly discuss the Mets' new GM Billy Eppler and the surprising departure of fan favorite and Marvel model Noah Syndergaard. We also go over the winners of baseball's major awards that we predicted back in March. Once again, those predictions were mostly swings and misses, but there was one foretelling that came to pas...

It has been a ride, but the time has come to finally call it: the Mets season is over. While not yet mathematically eliminated, the team crumbled down the stretch and have spent all of the numerous chances that they had to get hot and make a playoff push.

Hey baseball fans the Nephews are back with a couple of weeks worth of baseball insight. The Mets went through the Meat Grinder portion of their schedule and couldn't buy a hit while the Yankees have surged to the top of the AL Wild Card standings. What a difference a month makes.
