  • They are my heroes

    Jeff and Justin are my heroes. In a world of chaos, they bring light and joy with grounded evidence that provides a depth of knowledge that lets a casual fan get into baseball the way other get into Football or other sports. Listening to them gives me the understanding how this team works and why BABIP and hard hit ball % explains the ups and downs. Can’t wait for the next episode.

  • Evidence-based and Entertaining

    Justin and Jeff manage to generate reliably good podcasts 5 times a week without devolving into sensationalism or recycling “old takes.” I listen pretty much every day - my Guardians fandom is enhanced and my knowledge of baseball is markedly improved. Five stars.

  • Daily Listen

    This pod has been a daily listen for almost a year now - a great way to start my morning. Haven’t found analysis that comes close to what these guys cover on the daily, even in the offseason.

  • Insightful and non homer analysis

    I enjoy being a fan but when podcasters cross into being homers on all things, I get bored and disconnected. Justin and Jeff aren’t afraid to level justified criticism while supporting the community who wants the best for our guardians

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

MOCK DRAFT 1.0: Guardians, Roch Cholowsky, and Justin Lebron—How Shortstops ELEVATE the MLB Future
Q: What makes Roch Cholowsky's mock draft approach different from others?
He relies heavily on quantifiable data (hard-hit data, chase rate, contact rate) and values a balance of college production, athleticism, and positional cache (up-the-middle talent) when projecting top picks, and he is not afraid to call sleepers like Justin LeBron a strong strategic value for specific teams.
Cleveland Guardians Bullpen MUST to Maintain DOMINANCE in 2026; Last Chance to Extend Cade Smith
Q: What does a Cade Smith extension look like?
It seems complicated due to the unique situation of the player and challenges in current contracts.
BREAKOUT: Cleveland Guardians Look for Bo Naylor to Use September SURGE Into Big 2026 Season
Q: Is it fair to say that 2026 is a make or break year for him?
It's important for Bo Naylor to prove his potential, though he is likely to remain with the team in some capacity regardless.
REVEALED: Why Cleveland Guardians Pitching Needs the RIGHT MIX To Compete With Lance Brozdowski
Q: What do you see in Slade Saccone's pitching potential?

REVEALED: Why Cleveland Guardians Pitching Needs the RIGHT MIX To Compete With Lance Brozdowski
Q: What is your take on Joey Cantillo's ability to get Major League hitters out?
If he can stay healthy, his unique pitching style and good change-up give him mid-rotation potential.
