  • Good info, bad production

    These guys know a lot about baseball, but they don’t know anything about producing a podcast. The volume balance between the guys speaking is terrible. I have to turn the volume all the way down when the host is speaking and I have to turn it all the way up when is guest is speaking. Come on guys get it together.

    Low energy. Slow paced. Good info that is often used. Hosts or guests often have annoying echo.

    Usually a good pod, but just can't stomach any show with Nick Pollack on.

  • Not Good Anymore

    Erickson is incredibly annoying with his lame fantasy baseball nerd circle jokes. Learn to pronounce players’ names correctly, please. In what English language usage is “Marsee” pronounced “Mar-SAY” like he’s a French soccer team? Saying “SCARF” isn’t funny every time you do it. Just go away, let Link or Anderson host the show.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Brewers Prospects + Trade Deadline w/ Spencer Michaelis
Q: What's your take on how the Brewers handled the deadline overall including the pitching and position-player assets?
Overall solid, not extremely exciting, with notable adds like Senzatella and a defense of why the Brewers didn't land a big bat; they still preserved depth and upside while managing risk.
Brewers Prospects + Trade Deadline w/ Spencer Michaelis
Q: What was your reaction to the trade after hearing the return?
Initial reaction was positive about adding May and Romero, but excitement tempered once the actual return was known, recognizing the move as potentially high upside despite concerns about the pieces sent away.
Max Clark FAAB Week / Trade Reactions
Q: What is your assessment of Max Clark's immediate impact for fantasy leagues?
Clark appears to have secured everyday center-field duties with strong plate discipline and baserunning, making him a high-priority FAAB target for the rest of the season.
National League Trade Deadline Preview with Taylor Tarter
Q: So what I want to know, Taylor, is this Nationals team actually pretty decent? Did we underestimate them heading into the year, or is this basically the same that we've seen?
Taylor argues that the Nationals have changed structurally with a new administration and improved approach at the plate, supported by rising performances from core hitters, suggesting they are a legitimate contender if they can upgrade the pitching staff; it's not a fluke, but hinges on rotation/bullpen improvements.
Underrated MiLB Prospects w/ JT
Q: What makes Jeremy Cabrera a buy, in your view, given the data at High A and the early numbers at AA?
Cabrera shows a well-rounded skillset with bat-to-ball skills, multi-position potential, and a path to contributing both offensively and defensively; his upside is amplified by his youth and continued growth, making him worth targeting in trades for the right price.
