Pottymouth gives the rundown on all the pitcher drama, from Alek Manoah getting sent so very far down, Anthony Bass burning his opportunity for redemption and getting both DFA’d and booed, and the questionable conversation around Matt Dermody. Patti reassures Pottymouth’s dad that Triston Casas will be just fine, and Michael Harris reassures Patti that he will be just fine. Brothers Ramon (Os) and Luis (Brewers) Urias faced off for the very first time. Our police blotter focuses on the pitch clock at the Bank, where 15 seconds seems to go way faster than at other ballparks.  Patti points out that Justin Turner fouling a ball off the forehead of Yankees’ radio broadcaster John Sterling makes her regular flinching at inside pitches and fouls coming for the pressbox (behind netting, but still) completely reasonable so please stop teasing her. Leonel Messi comes to the MLS, which is solidly related to baseball because of the welcome from Marlins players, and the possible side hustle for Pottymouth who offers her services as a teacher of English.

Happy Friday! Ailish and Justin kick off the show by discussing the Panthers’ OT win over the Golden Knights in Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final, the Blue Jays taking 3 of 4 against the Astros, Jose Berrios’ latest strong outing, and Alejandro Kirk quietly finding his groove at the plate. Then, they weigh in on Anthony Bass’ polarizing comments from Thursday, the Leafs’ hiring of Shane Doan, and Corey Conners sitting atop the leaderboard heading into Round 2 of the RBC Canadian Open. Later, Ailish presents her daily edition of the A-List (47:41)!

Happy Pride to all! Marcus Stroman sets the bar high, Mike Pence demands an apology for what he does not understand, and the Blue Jays teach us how a team can help its players be better people. Aquaman opts out, Chas and Nicky bounce back, and Joey adjusts his brain to a DH role. We discuss A-Rod’s gums, but not as much as he does. Patti tries to explain the business of cable-based regional sports networks, blackouts, and fair market value. We cross-train with the Celtics and commencement, and celebrate the all-female umpire crew working the Cuban National Series. Patti cheats on Pottymouth by dating another podcast – check her out on the Daily Deuce.

We say “Pretend you are the Dewey Decimal System and file it under Mythology,” “It’s something I used to eschew,” and “You said “eschew perfectly.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

About the Green Dragon Tavern Show

“Talking a little treason.” Veteran political operative Zach Lautenschlager and retired MLB pitcher Dennis Sarfate bring breaking news and inside commentary on American culture, politics and business. 

The Green Dragon Tavern is where Paul Revere and the Sons of Liberty gathered in Boston during the American Revolution. “Let us go to the Green Dragon and talk a little treason,” Founding Father Samuel Adams would say, tongue in cheek, according to legend. 

Today, the Green Dragon Tavern Show is where free men and women gather in defense of freedom.

Happy Hump Day! Do the Leafs have a new GM? Ailish and Justin react to the latest speculation suggesting that Brad Treliving is closing in on a deal to become the Maple Leafs’ new GM. Afterwards, they weigh in on Anthony Bass’ apology for his anti-LGBTQ+ post on Instagram, the potential recourse moving forward, the Blue Jays’ 7-2 win over the Brewers, and Nate Pearson’s recent emergence. Then, Ailish and Justin debut a new segment called Tenable/Untenable! Later, we close out the hour with Ailish’s daily edition of the A-List (46:53)!

Blake Murphy is joined by Sportsnet's Chris Black and Joe Siddall to weigh in on how the Blue Jays should address their bullpen issues, why it's essential to get pitchers that have swing and miss pitches, and if the team would consider rolling a 6-man starting rotation (01:48). Sportsnet.ca's Shi Davidi gives his thoughts on the Jays acquiring Zach Pop and Anthony Bass from the Marlins, why they're welcoming a return for Bass, and if a starting pitcher would've been involved in the negotiations (21:53).

Finally, Arden Zwelling of At The Letters jumps in to chat about a good opportunity for Jordan Groshans within the Marlins system, and who is left on the board that would be a great addition to Toronto's rotation or bullpen (01:20:32).
