#bluejays Max Scherzer seemed primed to get rocked by #dodgers. But that did not happen! When Max was tapped to pitch game 3 by Jays manager Schneider, he knew he'd be the one to start game 7. That's what HOFers do. Want the ball when it counts most! And Max…
In a seven game classic series it's only a couple of plays that are the difference. The #bluejays outhit, mostly out-pitched the #dodgers but fell a hair short of their first title in 32 years. From this week's podcast - a few key mistakes doomed the Jays' chance!
#dodgers Yoshinobu Yamamoto is like a Boy Scout - Always Prepared! What he did in game 7 after pitching 6 innings in game 6 was all-time amazing! From this week's podcast!
Vlad Guerrero Jr. had a great playoff and World Series run. His 'mad dash' from first base to home in the 7th inning of game 3 gave the Jays a lead and could have been one of the most memorable tears in WS history. But when the Dodgers walked off…
Since 1973 there gave been 17 seven-game World Series. None of them had an 18-inning game, a player who got on base 9x in one game, a rookie striking out 12 hitters and a solo extra inning home run for the final runs. #Dodgers #BlueJays will be talked about for…
It didn't look too good after #bluejays shellacked the #Dodgers in game one. Mark and Gordon make their picks and check out what they picked!
We think Dave Roberts might already be a HOF manager. But after having to manage/overmanage the bullpen on the way to the title in 2024, Roberts has the luxury of starters that go deep into games which lessens the need bullpen studs. Good thing too since this season the Dodger…
A-Rod apparently claimed that Toronto vs. L.A. is a 'Goliath vs. Goliath' series. We like A-Rod but cannot figure out what he was talking about! Check out the clip from our podcast today https://youtu.be/IRF0hYmx9co Thanks for watching!
#Bluejays found their groove in Seattle winning the series 4-3 over the #Mariners in 7 interesting and often exciting games. #Dodgers dominated #Brewers who could only muster 4 runs in 4 games. A George Springer dinger made the difference in game 7. Shohei Ohtani had the greatest single game a…
We felt pretty confident in #dodgers and we both like the #mariners but felt the #bluejays were going to be tough. That has not worked out so well so far!
#cubs walked Shohei Ohtani in game 1 of the NLDSk, preferring to face All-Star Mookie Betts. Mookie took offense in 2 ways. First walking with the bases filled to give the #dodgers the lead. Apparently still mad about it, in game 2 Betts suggested and orchestrated the baseball "Wheel Play"…
Kyle Schwarber is a FA, so is Ranger Suarez & JT Realmulto. #phillies were a very good team in 2025 winning NL East by 13.5 games. But they were built to win this year. #Braves will be better in 2026 & #Mets will spend $ to compete. What does Philly…
Did you stay up late to watch game one of the ALCS Sunday night the 12th? #Mariners and #BlueJays both entered the American League in 1977. Toronto has won 2 World Series but the Mariners have never won a pennant. Will they get past the Jays who have the home…
Newest Yankee Ryan McMahon found himself upside down in the Red Sox dugout after he caught the final out of the 2025 AL Wild Card series at Yankee Stadium. Would the Red Sox let him get out of there alive? How did he feel? How did the Red Sox feel?
Craig Counsell used to manage the Brew Crew but left them to manage the Chicago Cubs who paid him more money than any manager has ever received. Milwaukee must be LOVING beating their departed former manager and thumping the Cubs in game one of the NLDS. Will the Cubs fight…
It was quite a week in #mlb! #Dodgers subdued #Reds but not before a little excitement in game 2. #Phillies will be a much tougher test and the series started in Philly. #Cubs were better than #Padres but is that enough as they head to Milwaukee to face #Brewers over…
Houston #Astros won 87 games this year but missed out on the 3rd AL Wild Card. #reds only won 83 in the NL but made it into the Wild Card. Few will shed tears for the Astros missing out except for 'Stros fans! Could they have beaten Cleveland had Detroit…
After a 45-29 start the Mets flopped to a 35-53 record the rest of the 2025 season. Big payrolls don't necesarily translate into wins. The Mets spent more than $4M per win for all of their 83 wins. Fans came out to Citi Field like never before - the most…
#Mets fans like we are might be relieved that the nightmare finish to the season is finally over. Sure making the playoffs would have been great, but #Reds deserved it more & getting spanked by #Dodgers would have been up next for the boys from Citi Field. #Phillies look good…
#yankees Aaron Judge was hitting .400 into June this year and on such a torrid pace that all-time records were in danger. He couldn't maintain that pace. Cal Raleigh has led #mariners into first place and has the most home runs ever by a catcher in a single season. Which…
#mets have three rookies in their starting rotation in the heat of a playoff run. #Bluejays have Trey Yesavage making big starts down the stretch. What the heck is going on with untested pitchers being tossed into the heat of a pennant race? Did #Dodgers set this trend last year…
We talked about #phillies Trea Turner being the NL's only .300 hitter although #cubs Nico Hoerner is on the doorstep. How about exactly zero no-hitters thrown in Major League #baseball this year?
Mike Trout hit his 400th home run. Remember when he was the best player in #MLB? We started the show talking about Ep. 628 where we talked with author Jane Leavy about her new book - Make Me Commissioner - I know what's wrong with baseball and how to fix…
Author Jane Leavy wrote the book on Sandy Koufax - "A Lefty's Legacy" , so who better to talk about the incredible stress Sandy put on his golden left arm and why it shortened his brilliant career.
