Former Cardinals pitcher and current analyst Brad Thompson previews the short two-game series between St. Louis and Toronto. Thompson discusses the season so far for tonight's starter Miles Mikolas, the stability that Paul Goldschmidt brings to the lineup, and the job Oliver Marmol has done as the youngest manager in MLB (06:30). Later on, Blue Jays infielder Santiago Espinal discusses his impressive season to date and the work he has put in to be better both offensively and defensively (26:28).

• Are college athletes just free agents now? The NCAAF doesn't have enough guidelines around paying college athletes, and it's going to get messy. 
• Home runs are running low, and so are ERAs--is it something in the water, or something in the baseballs?
• What's our take on banning the shift in the MLB? Will it help or hurt the game of baseball?

Today the Atlanta Braves’ Tyler Matzek is a World Series Champion and one of the top relief pitchers in Major League Baseball. But just a few years ago, Tyler Matzek was ready to walk away from the game, and not because he was ready to retire, but due to a bad case of the yips. Matzek had tried everything he’d heard of to fix his throwing, and nothing was working–nothing, that is, until he met Jason Kuhn, a mental performance coach and fellow yips-sufferer. Matzek’s work with Kuhn would be the catalyst that initiated a remarkable comeback, and on this episode of “Losing Control” you’ll not only hear how Tyler Matzek got his pitching back, you’ll get a behind the scenes look at the process that keeps him at the top of his game.      

• Jason Kuhn, a mental performance coach and owner and operator of Stonewall Solutions
• Tyler Matzek, 2021 World Series Champion and current relief pitcher for the Atlanta Braves

Alyssa Nakken makes history again while just doing her job adjacent to an “unfortunate racist incident” as we remind you that there’s a reason unwritten rules aren’t written. Alec Bohm makes 1) Patti’s Phillies prediction come true early and 2) Pottymouth feel right at home. Ke’Bryan Hayes rakes in the beer money while Heliot Ramos settles for a cup of coffee. Joe Maddon sends Corey Seager on a surprising walk. 

Patti takes Albert Pujols’ announcement of his decision to divorce his wife days after her brain tumor surgery very personally and Pottymouth sends his shirt to the thrift store in solidarity. MLB’s Trailblazer series in Vero, Florida hosts 11-13 year old girls from 25 states plus these places that are not states: Puerto Rico, Washington, DC, and Canada. Roki Sasaki has faced 52 batters without giving up a hit, leading us to ponder which is more important – the potential perfect game, or preserving the streak? 

 Mark “We’ll never sell the Nationals” Lerner announces that the ownership group is exploring selling the Nationals. Patti is concerned about agreeing with Buck Showalter. NCiB encourages you to Adopt a Minor Leaguer, since all the cool kids are doing it. We say “fragile masculinity issues,” “when does it stop being weird?” and “I vote for hoodwinking.”

#frankgore definite #hof player. 16k in 16 games. 241 games most by a #runningback all time. Hell yes.
@gamecockwbb congrats on 2nd #natty and #dawnstaley first #black coach to win multiple championships male or female.  I look forward to the day more coaches are added to this list.  Tonight in #nawlins @unc_basketball vs @kuhoops for the title.  #unc won in the #bigeasy in #1982 and #1993 and let’s get it tonight.  So proud of all the team and #hubertdavis have accomplished the season.
Thanks for the article @btmcgraw on #prevacus which was supposed to treat #concussions and had #brettfavre involved in his home state of #mississippi and led to a flow of state grant funds to the company.  Over $40M of those funds that was supposed to help the poorest citizens of the state. Thanks @mstodaynews #annawolfe 
#albertpujols will play in his 22nd opening day for @cardinals in 2022. 
@brooklynnets currently 10th in East and @lakers 2 games out in west but at 37 #lebronjames could be oldest @nba scoring champ.
Game time decision for @tigerwoods at @themasters this Thursday.

#kyrieirving is all about his freedom.  Doesn’t want anyone telling him what to do.  #covid_19 affected a lot of people. Sorry your freedom was being attacked.  I need to be more sympathetic to your plight.  Hope the $246M extension in the offseason will alleviate some of your pain.  Nets dropped to 8th in Eastern Conference after losing game and tie breaker to @hornets at @barclayscenter last night.  
@unc_basketball what a season.  #hubertdavis #finalfour first season at the helm.
 #shaheenholloway incredible season with @peacocksmbb making it to the #elite8 .  You bet on yourself and won.  
Can someone explain to me how the #pegula family worth $7B are getting $850M of public money for a $1.4B new Stadium for the @buffalobills which should be done by 2026.  The rich get richer.  @commanders might get a $3B domed Stadium in Virginia with upwards of $1B public funds.
@lakers only one game up on the @spurs for the 10th and final spot in the Western Conference. #albertpujols one final season with @cardinals should have never left.  @btmcgraw is psyched. @gamecockwbb and @stanfordwbb heading to final four. @umichwbball tonight vs @uoflwbb to join them. 
@umichhockey is going to their record 26th #frozenfour in Boston.  #goblue

Tommy & Jimmy-  baseball jobs lost, offered & pizza

1:45  - Germain gives us a deep dive into the Tampa Bay Rays farm system & who is coming up

2:50 – MiLBy awards – Rays Winners, Taj Bradley –
 
3:22 Taj Bradley has strong mound presence
 Bradley reminds Mat of Shane Baz
 xFIP explained - (Fielding Independent Pitching)

5:25 – Colby White ascends the Rays farm ladder through 4 levels in 2021. Could make a strong difference with the Rays pitching in next year.

6:04 – Depth of the Farm system reduces dependence on paying top dollar to experienced players.

6:45 – Most teams need a plethora of pitchers. Rays were strong with their pitcher depth compared to other teams. Not overtaxing the arms. 

8:22 – Shane McClanahan – big ask to perform again so quickly in postseason

9:20 – Durham Bulls – MiLB Team of the Year. Mat takes on Baseball America staff on value of the Durham Bulls.

10:40 – Braves, their GM was courageous

11:00 – Arizona Fall League (AFL) – Scorpions – great games but not available to be seen. Why not?“  . . . a 6 team All-Star League”

12:00 - Curtis Mead, very close to being a major league hitter. Will the Rays trade him?

13:00 – Matt Dyer & Rich Hill trades with the Mets.

13:30 – TB Rays, Carlos Garcia – made AFL All-Star game 

14:15 – How to break into the Rays Pen

14:45 – Joey Wendle – will the Rays keep this high quality and versatile player?
 Other options – Keep Taylor Walls & possibly trade Vidal Brujan.
 Joey Wendle brings the work ethic and commitment to the job.
 Kevin Kiermaier, shouldn’t he be awarded thee Golden Glove award this year. Was something slowing him down early last season.

18:00 – CBA status – Collective Bargaining Agreement expires soon. How is this impacting team ownership on their decisions to sign, extend or trade this week. What are the Rays doing to the exterior of the Trop.

18:35 – Rays have taken down the images of the Rays on the outside of Tropicana Field. Dark dirge being played early?  Let’s avoid the 1994 & 1995

20:00 – Truly – “Who’s on First?”
 Where is First Base Coach Ozzie Timmons?
 Third Base Coach Rodney Linaires is managing a Dominican League team that has Pujols as a team player.

22:00 – Rays need a seasoned veteran player leader with the team like Nelson Cruz, Albert Pujols, Rich Hill. 

24:45 – Tampa Bay Rays Free Agents who should the front office bring back? Collin McHugh, Michael Wacha.
 Loss of Charlie Morton cost the Rays money, wins and leadership for young arms.
 Shane McClanahan – “I’m a Rookie”  - sounded like a need for help.

28:30 – Stu’s tight purse strings restricted Erik Neander from building a stronger team

29:50 – Mat’s Favorite GM’s – Alex Anthopoulos & Erik Neander – courage to change the face of the franchise to empower your team.

32:00 – Mark’s Rays team – who he wants back. Nate Eovaldi, Charlie Morton, Hunter Renfroe, d’Arnaud

34:25 – Mike Zunino – Rays rather smartly re-signed Zunino. He is the forgotten man when it comes to catchers across MLB. “Zunino behind the plate  . . he calls a great game” Will the Rays bring up Pinto this year to study under Zunino.

38:30 – Rookie of the Year, Randy Arozarena and Wander Franco are nominees. Franco is the best switch hitter since Chipper Jones.

Sometimes we like to mix things up here at Wise Kracks. Normally, at the start of the show you’ll be greeted by co-host Jon Orlando live from the studio in Las Vegas, before he introduces the Krack man himself, Bill Krackomberger, who is often dialing in from some casino resort elsewhere in the country. Today, the tables have turned. Krack is back home in Vegas, while Jon is joining us on a video call from… a different part of Las Vegas. He’s over at the Rio for the World Series of Poker, playing one of the feeder events to try to qualify for the Main Event at the beginning of November. Check out the best picks and tips this week on Wise Kracks!

Pottymouth’s Red Sox household welcomes a Yankees fan interloper, and Patti faces the I’m from Cleveland but named the kid for Camden Yards dilemma for the weekend series. Classic boyfriends do us proud, with Kiké’s bat coming alive, Albert Pujols climbing up the all time lists, Christian Yelich proving blonde bats have more fun, and Cedric Mullins going 5-5. Patti’s current Os BF, Ryan Mountcastle, earns AL player of the week, and she serves as back-up mom at Bobby “The Assassin” Bradley’s second “debut.” Pottymouth’s outfield takes a hit with both Trent Grisham and Kyle Lewis on the IL. Way too many players are getting hit in the face by baseballs -- this time two pitchers, Tyler Zombro and Ryan Braiser -- end up in the hospital.

Don’t worry, the Cleveland team has narrowed down its options for new names to 1200.  We’re getting there! MLB will likely release their plan for enforcement of the “no foreign substances” rule shortly, which may include multiple checks on pitchers in a single start, and suspensions for those caught in the act. Also in the Police Blotter, Bob Brenly says the right things in his apology for his durag remark about Marcus Stroman, but his track record of blowing dog whistles undermines our confidence. Marcelle Ozuna is out on bail and the Atlanta team may be stuck paying his contract no matter what the domestic abuse  investigations show.

Team USA qualifies for the Olympics with a stellar performance by Todd Frazier and players drawn from MLB prospects and old-timers. Cuba fails to qualify for the first time ever. Taiwan withdraws from contention. The remaining spots go to Israel, South Korea, Mexico, host country Japan, and the winner of the final qualifier later this month in Mexico. Vote your All-Star ballot, give all your money to DC Girls Baseball, and send hopes and prayers for Patti’s failing fantasy team.

Wash your hands, wear your masks, watch your distance, get your vaccine as soon as you can, and fight the man.

Yermin Mercedes enfrenta la polémica con su propio manager Tony La Russa por conectyar jonrón en 3 y 0 mientras Albert Pujols conectó su primer jonrón con los Dodgers y ya suman 6 juegos sin hits ni carreras en la actual temporada.  Escucha el nuevo episodio del podcast Desde el Diamante con Enrique Burak, Toño de Valdés y Luis Quiñones.

Gaylord Jackson Perry was born September 15th, 1938 in Williamstown, North Carolina to farmers Evan and Ruby Perry. Gaylord and his older brother, Jim, grew up plowing the fields of the family farm with a mule, yet Gaylord entertained dreams of being a cowboy or even a pro baseball player. Though their labor was needed, their father gave them as much free time as practical to learn and pursue their love of baseball; teaching them the game during lunch breaks and eventually all three starred on the Alpine Cowboys, a semi-pro team.
