The 2nd week is well underway, and we had some great shows to listen to over the last week – courtesy of the following BBBA shows.
Sully Baseballtalked about weather concerns, the A’s ballpark issues, a shortened season, the Hector Olivera fiasco, Pablo Sandoval, MLB’s hat maneuvers – and if it is too early to panic about certain clubs?
BBA Live! is entering its second season. Listen in as AC Wayne is again joined by Ricky Keeler of Yanks Go Yard and District On Deck (Nats) as we discuss all the latest news and headlines throughout the league. Tentatively scheduled, as always: Rich Rivera of Mets Public Record.
This week, Shawn Anderson and Lou Olsen talk with former Major Leaguer, two-time All-Star Dmitri “Da Meathook” Young.
Dmitri tells the boys about growing up a “Navy brat”, his extensive (and pricey) baseball card collection, ballpark food, his favorite baseball stadium to hit at and, finally, his obsession with WWE and professional wrestling.
JAYS FROM THE COUCH PRESENTS EP 69 OF THE JAYS NEST PODCAST. THIS WEEK WE ATTEMPT TO CALM THE MASSES AFTER THE BLUE JAYS LOST 4 IN A ROW.
Episode 69 of the Jays Nest Podcast features in depth discussion about the Toronto Blue Jays’ first week of the 2016 season. Many would see it as a disappointment, and those folks have a leg to stand on. But, it wasn’t all bad. We dig into the good, bad and ugly. There were some story lines that came out of Week 1 that we discuss. The new sliding rule and its aftermath is an obvious starting point. We also look at highlights, lowlights and we introduce a new segment for you! All this and a slew of reader questions await you. Enjoy!
In This Week’s Episode:
We start off with a brilliant discussion surrounding the late inning loss thanks to MLB’s new slide rule. The aftermath of that play was something that was talked about for quite a while, but this is our first chance to chat together about it.
We then dig into the narrative of who will replace David Ortiz as the Red Sox DH. One report suggests that it will be Jose Bautista, while Big Papi himself wants it to be Edwin Encarnacion. We examine the likelihood of either of them doing it as well as the timing of such a line of thinking.
Despite the doom and gloom of the past week in Blue Jays’ Land, we look at some of the bright spots the team has seen. Josh Donaldson is picking up where he left off last year by producing. Aaron Sanchez has been a pleasant surprise. Marco Estrada‘s first start was magical and Joe Biagini is winning folks over.
In order to maintain the balance in the universe, we also look at some of the lowlights. The bullpen (and its usage) have been a tad suspect as have the bats of Chris Colabello and Troy Tulowitzki.
From there, we began our new segment where we deliver our Hot Takes for the week. Be sure to tune in every week for this segment as we deliver the best insight you’ll ever hear.
We wrapped up with a long list of awesome reader questions from all over the globe that filled in the blanks that we didn’t cover in the show. We were asked about having 3 first basemen, what would happen in the event of a major injury, Rogers Centre renovations and much more.
—The Pirates Breakdown Podcast is a weekly show hosted by Tyler, Steve, and Jason featuring recaps, news, opinion, analysis, special guests, and more. Each week we take stock of the Pittsburgh Pirates’ landscape and offer our thoughts on the current state of the team. Future plans for the show include exciting guests and plenty of reader interaction
Every week, two of the Best Fans in Baseball (TM) bring you all the news and analysis you need about the St. Louis Cardinals. The first week of the 2016 season is in the books and the Cardinals are as confounding as ever, losing three to Pittsburgh before sweeping the Braves. How much does each factor? Adam Wainwright has had two starts and not looked sharp in either. Is there a concern there? Jeremy Hazelbaker and Aledmys Diaz have made some impact this, but what does that mean for their playing time going forward? There’s plenty for Daniel Shoptaw (C70 At The Bat) and Tara Wellman (Bird Seeds) to try to cram into thirty minutes!
