One of my devoted listeners sent me a Tweet.

This terrific Deadspin article accurately looked at baseball’s inability to sell itself.

I took it a few steps further, put part of the blame on Bud Selig, who I compared to Jay Leno and William H. Macy’s character in Fargo.

But hope for baseball comes, in all places, The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.

Trust me, it all makes sense in this episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

Bo Porter was fired as manager of the Astros. Now I am not sure if it was the right move for the team, but there is no way the team’s losing ways could have been a surprise to Bo or anyone else.

It is a stuck in traffic episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

Was the Jon Lester trade a mistake?

Do they desperately need Yoenis Cespedes?

Or would they be in worse shape relying on a slumping Sonny Gray or Scott Kazmir at this point?

And what does this have to do with the beef stroganoff recipe by comedian Ritch Duncan?

It all makes sense (or maybe it doesn’t) in this episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

Does ANY team want to win the second NL Wild Card spot?

The Brewers, Pirates and Braves aren’t acting like teams that want to.

Plus Daniel Hudson and Erik Cordier give us the feel good moments of the week.

It is a glass half full and glass half empty episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

I would hate for last night’s loss to be Koji Uehara’s last game with the Red Sox… but it might be.

Closer’s flame out and Koji looks like no exception. Remember, he was never meant to be a long term solution.

Today’s episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast was recorded outside of Sunken Diamond at Stanford University.

Ron Washington stunned the baseball world by resigning suddenly on Friday. Not only was his leaving the team unexpected, but there is a slight aura of mystery regarding why the beloved manager is walking away.

To help make sense of it all, I brought in Texas Rangers fan and creator of The Scoop, Jamie Kelly, to talk about Wash’s legacy and her reading between the lines of the press conference.

It is Sunday and time for The Sunday Request on The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

Look, I know Jeter is respected and I’ve shown him more love than most Red Sox fans.

But the logic of today’s celebration totally eludes me.

It is a “Carefully tread” episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

Lots of great baseball was played yesterday, not that you would know it if you went to any place that showed sports.

A trip to Dave and Busters drove home the fact that the baseball regular season needs to end on Labor Day.

There is a real possibility that the Angels and Cardinals could meet in the World Series.

If that happens, my advice to Texas Rangers fans is DO NOT WATCH!

It is a missed opportunity episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

The home plate collision rule somehow got more confusing, Jon Lester showed why the A’s traded for him and the Brewers freefall is worse than I thought. There is a real possibility that they could finish below .500!

A lawsuit involving Jeff Wilpon filed by a former VP could be the first step in cleaning house of the Mets ownership… or at least that is what fans of the Mets are HOPING.

It is kind of a dark episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

Also, a hit by pitch may have clinched the MVP for Giancarlo Stanton.

Comedian Clayton Fletcher joins the podcast today to talk about his beloved Baltimore Orioles.

We discuss why on paper this is a mediocre team, why “not sucking” helps” and of course Chris Davis’ suspension.

It is Sunday and time for The Sunday Request on The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

What movie would I want to see?

Maybe a colorful and complicated brawling manager… or a woman who ran a powerful Negro League team… or a pitcher who could have been brilliant and insane… or the least likely World Series clincher of all time.

I put on my movie producer hat on The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

Washington and Baltimore both clinch in an amazing night for the Beltway and both franchises are seeking redemption.

Things get tight in the AL Central, a closer should be put in moth balls and stupidity overshadows what was basically a meaningless Rays and Yankees game.

In a vacuum, the Derek Jeter – Gatorade commercial was great. It is just getting to be a little bit of overkill!

Plus, Mike Scioscia can put any lineup on the field he wants. His team clinched. He owes no team a playoff spot but his own.

The Pittsburgh Pirates are a scary team heading into the post season. Not because of momentum (which is meaningless, especially with a one game playoff) but because of which players are healthy, strong and playing at a high level.

It is a raise the Jolly Roger episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast

Adam Wainwright has had a career worth noting, even if he will probably never win a Cy Young Award.

Plus the AL Cy Young race is more interesting with Corey Kluber pitching so well and Felix Hernandez losing.

There is a possibility that Derek Jeter’s final game at Yankee Stadium could get rained out. That is hilarious.

Next year, how about a 30 ballpark tour celebrating Hank Aaron and Willie Mays while they are still with us?

The Giants can clinch their third post season berth under Bruce Bochy today. Hopefully San Francisco fans can truly appreciate what a remarkable run their team has had.

Chances are it won’t last much longer.

Even this bitter Red Sox fan has to admit that Derek Jeter’s finale in New York was pretty cool.

The narrative of the last at bat was perfect, even if the build up to it was obnoxious.

WFAN’s Jason Keidel joins the podcast to discuss Jeter, narratives of baseball and what is next.

Waiting for my shuttle at the Bob Hope Burbank Airport, I reflect on a wild night of baseball.

The Diamondbacks made a move they should have done in the spring (and got revenge for 1988.)

The Royals showed us something we hadn’t seen since 1985.

And the Red Sox and Yankees do something that hasn’t happened since the creation of the Wild Card.

A positively bonkers eve to the final (scheduled) regular season game leaves more questions than answers.

Tomorrow could be even crazier and realistic scenarios have as many as three additional games being played on Monday.

Things are getting odd and I’m recording a podcast in my garage.

It is a tin foil hat crazy episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast

It is the Post Season!!!! I make my picks for the playoffs.

Meanwhile the Royals or A’s will justify a big trade with a win. Will it be Jon Lester or James Shields who will vindicate their General Manager.

And why should Fox want a Dodgers – A’s World Series?

All that and more on this post season kick off episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.
