Tim Restall runs one of the most successful minor league teams in the country, the Hartford Yard Goats. How did a guy who started his career selling fried dough get here? Listen and find out.
Recap HOF weekend, as well Brian's rough visit to Fenway, and why NY is third best team in baseball.
We break down needs and wants for the Yankees and Red Sox. A closer for NY? Juan Soto? Will Boston do ANYTHING? And a special guest IN STUDIO!
The Yankees look tired and the Red Sox look terrible. By the end of this latest series, one team will feel a whole lot better. Quick listen (from a cool recording spot!) ... and enjoy!
How did the Red Sox manage a split against New York? Good question! Plus, no Yankee gear in Aruba, and Sean McDonough changes things.
Red Sox-Yankees baby! Can the Sox catch them? No. But they can go into the All Star break with a lot of mojo. We break it down and lament that Joey Gallo has no value and Chaim Bloom probably won't make trades.
What if you worked your whole life for one thing? What if you were inches away from achieving it when you were told it may not happen after all? Meet Connecticut's Will Yahn, UCONN great who was recently released by the Orioles. Great stories. Great perspective. Great listen.
Could the Yankees be a historically great team? Are the Red Sox actually a Playoff Team? Plus a special guest who use to recreate Red Sox - Yankees fights.
It's never too early to think October. The Yanks will need to add & the Sox will struggle to get there. Kody Clemens sparks a deep dive into kids of former MLB players. Plus the "slap" heard around baseball.
Yankees aren't as good as we thought. Sox aren't as bad. Plus, hashing out some fantasy issues and Josh Donaldson.
We sit down with an umpire with over 30 years experience to break down: Robots, respect and what comes next. A perspective we don't get enough as viral-video conflicts are on the rise and number of umps is on the way down.
The Yankees are the best, and the Sox are the worst. So bizarre. We also break down the great mistake in Trevor Story, and who is to blame.
Are the Yankees that good? Are the Sox that bad? Plus, John goes off on Trevor Bauer (it's worth the wait).
What's the long-term impact of fans behaving badly? Even more distance from fans. Angel Hernandez is a problem, just not the only problem. And will we ever see another hitter get to 3,000?
The Red Sox rarely sell out now. Should they be doing more to make it more appealing to people? (Ahem, prices!). Also, worried about Gerrit Cole? And imagine playing on a good team that NO ONE watches.
Don't mess with Philly and assessing Yanks and Sox out of the gate. Good decision not sign ANYONE before first pitch? Short answer: NO!
Baseball is back. Besides breaking down the two teams, we talk renewed interest I fantasy and probably the most interesting conversation: Theo Epstein and his effort to change the game.
Joan Ryan is a pioneer for women in sports journalism. She's covered it all, written books and now serves as a media consultant for the SF Giants. Recounting her first foray into a pro locker room is riveting as are her takes on leadership. Hint: Aubrey Huff and Jonny Gomes make the cut.
Not really. But Earl Snyder has some stories to tell. And the receipts to prove it. His baseball life, which includes a cup of coffee with the legendary '04 Red Sox.
As spring baseball ramps up, we break down the new Red Sox deal and continue to lament the 12-team playoff format.
John Sterling has been calling Yankee games for 33 years. But he's been loving them his whole life. His stories, thoughts and maybe some hints on new home run calls.
Yankee fans scratching their heads, and we're trying to answer why. And it's not just Josh Donaldson and his $50 million. Plus, why Brian is calling for a boycott!
Who to blame? Will we (the real fans) come back? Hint: We're pretty upset. That, plus why the lockout may be why Jeter bailed on the Marlins.
Gone are the days of putting a baseball card in the spokes of your bike. Sports cards and collectibles are BIG business. We sit down with lifelong collector and hobby store owner Ken Asal to talk the past, present and future of the industry. Plus, find out where you might be able to find the iconic 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle for free!
Why does David Ortiz get a pass into the HOF when the likes of Bonds and Clemens don't? Good question. The answer may lie in the fact that no one cares that A-Rod was at the Packers game! We will explain.
Dan Shaughnessy vs. David Ortiz is a good fight. MLB vs. MLBPA is not. We discuss. Plus, women in baseball and baseball in Montreal. Check us out.
We celebrate a year of John being alcohol free. He tells his compelling story of how he got to 2022 and how it relates to his love of baseball and family. It's an episode to make us all think.
From watching Reds games with his grandparents to being in the room for real-life arbitration hearings, he joins us to talk baseball -- everything from his Roto baseball past and defense of data to whether Joey Votto makes the HOF and odds Reds EVER win again.
Question: Who did less before the lockout? Answer: Yankees. But not by much. We lament that, rip the lockout and have, perhaps, the best nugget yet. Hint: Transylvania baseball.
We break down the incredible deal for Wander Franco, what the Sox/Yanks have/haven't done and what the heck will happen in the Hall of Fame voting.
