Francisco Rojas gives his reaction to what potentially could have been leaked Phillies City Connect Jerseys, what to expect from Matt Strahm in 2024, and more.

Francisco Rojas tells us why The Phillies should sign Yoshinobu Yamamoto, even if it might cost 300 million dollars over 10 years.  Also, what to expect from Alec Bohm in 2024. 

We make our World Series calls official. Pottymouth asserts Astros in five, with all the feels for the old guys (Dusty and Justin), and the promise of the youngsters (Mauricio Dubón and Jeremy Peña). Patti leans into the joyful and the scrappy of what FoxSports calls the “Greatest College Baseball Team of All Time,” Phillies in 6. Fun fact about our skill in boyfriend selection, all runs in Game 1 were driven in by NCiB BFs. Hey, don't go looking for conspiracy theories regarding Martín Maldonado using illegal bats gifted by Albert Pujols. Safety is job one. Tony Clark, head of the player’s union, uses the moment to note this is the first World Series since 1950 without a single US-born Black player on either team. MLB youth programs to grow the game are encouraging, with 9 US-born Black players drafted in the first round, including 4 of first 5 draftees, most since 1992, but the lack of current players for kids to relate to make it an uphill battle. The dearth of Black managers and front office leadership is firmly under the control of MLB management where they can absolutely choose  who to hire.

Boyfriends with bats are all over the Silver Slugger nominees, and the Fielding Bible “Defense is Sexy” Awards highlight future Guardian picks. Pottymouth gives you the heads up on World Baseball Classic tickets in Miami and in Florida. The Serie del Caribe schedule is out so clear some February time to watch the Winter Ball championship. We’ve got an allegiance swap in the LVBP, and not just so we can say Anzoátegui and Sugar Jesus. MLB cancels the Korea Series, driving the KBO to admit to being perplexed. And now we can’t stop saying “perplexed,” in addition to “vision of a glorious basement,” and “You O’d out loud!”

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.”

We begin our maiden voyage as part of the World Wide Sports Radio Network and are back with an all new episode! This week we begin by discussing a baby born immediately overcompensating for no reason, give our thoughts on Aaron Rodgers hosting Jeopardy! and whether he has a future as a game show host. We then get into some Major League Baseball talk and discuss the umpires blowing it multiple times this past week; once with Alec Bohm and the Phillies and again with the cowardly behavior of Michael Conforto. We also discuss rapper and part time pitcher Trevor Bauer as he’s being investigated by MLB for possibly cheating, the Braves bad response to the All Star Game being moved, Hideki Matsuyama winning the Masters, and we dive deep into what is sure to be an Academy Award worthy film about Saints coach Sean Payton and the interesting casting choice made. Get the vaccine, fuck the cops, and stay alive Serfs!

We’re pumped to join the World Wide Sports Network so be sure to check us out live on all of their stream channels every Monday at 4 p.m. and on their app any time.
