That’s how we define a successful boyfriend season -- some we picked too soon, some didn’t live up to the hype, some left town, many were all we hoped for and more, but nobody broke our hearts. We had a great time saying goodbye to our 2021 crew and making room for the new guys. Wander Franco makes a case for being a 2022 Rays boyfriend with his tremendous deal.
We teach vocabulary words in English and Spanish this week, setting you up for the deadline to tender contracts to players with six or fewer years of playing time (Super Two!), and for understanding the calls if you are watching winter ball instead of negotiations (carrera!). LIDOM provides cover for Yasiel Puig and Marcel Ozuna, and also gives Jose Siri and Mike Brosseau a place to shine. They honor “No Violence Against Women” Day by treating women to a day at the ballpark, and Big Papi will roll out Día de Leyendas to support his children’s fund on December 5. 12/5 is also the next double header in the Puerto Rican Women’s series, currently tied at one each. Pottymouth will need your support this week as her CPBL Lions are making her lose sleep. Lastly, we prepare you for a likely lock-out as the CBA needs to wrap up on December 1st and it is not looking good. We say froo-froo shit, hat trick, and double-fisting hard seltzers.

Vote on the pants and hair. That’s how Award Season: Boyfriend Edition might play out. Our guys did well across the Silver Sluggers and Gloves both Gold and Platinum (Patti 13, Pottymouth 11, if anyone is keeping score -- we certainly wouldn’t do that), but our pre-season predictions don’t hold up. You can still vote for your baseball bfs for the All-MLB team. It was “Business As Usual” at the annual GM meeting, at least according to every single GM quoted anywhere. We do appreciate a good set of talking points. Scott Boras made a predictable splash by speaking the truth about tanking and the need to incentivize all teams to win. Pottymouth sets up the entertainment to come with Big Papi and ARod facing off on the newly-released Hall of Fame ballot.
It’s Labor Day in November as Patti takes you through the economic issues on both the players’ union and the league sides in collective bargaining. MLB sees a defined pot of money and is just talking about different ways to slice it up, whereas the players don’t put an upper limit on their value -- especially the younger players. We have thoughts about the proposal tying pay to fWAR, getting to arbitration and FA sooner vs eliminating negotiations altogether and keeping players under team control for longer, and changes to the draft to address tanking on purpose. We hypothesize on what it means that a majority of the union’s player subcommittee are pitchers, Boras clients, and Patti’s bfs.
Pottymouth’s favorite CPBL team could pull off a trip to the league championship, and has to spend some time explaining to Patti how the playoff system is real. The Korean Series is underway. We celebrate that LMB loves Fernando Rodney like we do, naming him Reliever of the Year. Former Pottymouth BFs Franmil (en route) and Franchy add to the fun of watching LIDOM. Daddy Yankee, new co-owner of the LBPRC’s Cangrejeros de Santurce, encourages more celebrities to shine a light on the league. The Hammers’ William Contreras heads to Venezuela to join the Cardinales, in a league where managers are setting records for shortest careers. Your vocabulary word of the week is “jonrón.”
We say “shenanigans,” “Mountcastle was robbed,” and “eat the rich.”

We cry a little into our brunch beer over Buster Posey’s retirement. Our World Series wrap up includes Pottymouth’s dream job, Joc’s Mardis Gras moment, Freddie, Eddie, and Jorge, and a better way to honor 44 than just playing with numbers. Collective bargaining takes center stage so we talk potential lock-out both practically and optically. It’s officially Hot Stove time so we lay out themes to watch this week including qualifying offers, opt ins, and opt outs,
Baseball is not over! Winter ball is in full swing and Pottymouth’s guide is a great place to start. MLB favorites are playing in LIDOM, which you can see on MLBTV, and LBPRC just struck a deal with FOX to make it easier for you to watch Puerto Rican baseball. All this and LVBP and CPBL too! Lastly we do some crosstraining with the NFL to drive home a point that even previously favored QBs can be wingnut anti-vaxxers. We say bobblehead color problem, shiny baseball jacket, and “idioma anglosajón”

The Astros bring us “feudalism” as our vocabulary lesson, the LPBRC looks the other way with Roberto Alomar, and both the player’s union and officials from the City of Oakland call the commissioner’s office on operating in bad faith. And still our biggest rant involves cross-training with high school softball in North Carolina and, yes, questionable rules about hair. Albert Pujols finds a home with the Dodgers, Jarred Kelenic gets a curtain call, and Jose Abreu and Hunter Dozier collide.
Our COVID report tries to explain the breakthrough cases among vaccinated Yankees, and what’s up with the Padres. In Taiwan, a disturbing upswing in infections cause the league to suspend CPBL games, at least temporarily. Women’s baseball kicks off this week in the UK. All this and Diamondback dances, Duck Dynasty, and liberal use of words like “honkin’” and “frickin.” Watch for our special episode with DC Girls Baseball to drop later this week.

In this episode, we interview Val Paredes—veteran baseball mom to Tim Melville. You may have seen Tim Melville’s name in the news recently as he is a pitcher in the Chinese Professional Baseball League (CPBL) in Taiwan and just threw the first no hitter of 2021. See his No-Hitter MVP dance here, and his 2020 Freestyle MVP dance here.
Before playing in the CPBL, Tim was an MLB Journeyman, playing for 7 different major league franchises and at least 20 professional teams.
In 2019, pitching for the Colorado Rockies, Tim Melville had his first big-league win and quickly became a fan favorite of the Rockies franchise. In 2019 he also had the opportunity to strike out Freddie Freeman (an old teammate/acquaintance of his), Josh Donaldson, and Ozzie Albies.
Tim Melville was drafted in 2008 in the 4th round by the Royals, but had been ranked by RISE Magazine as the top high school draft prospect in the country at the time. He went on to room with Eric Hosmer and Mike Montgomery in Single A the following year.
Val has moved all around, but is a native Virginian and is currently living in Chester, Virginia. She has so much baseball-mom experience to share with us as a single mom raising a highly-sought after baseball player and navigating Tim through AAU, travel ball, USA Baseball, and the MLB draft out of high school. She also shares the challenges her son has faced along the way and talk about how they have dealt with those challenges and persevered through injuries, surgeries, and a congenital condition.

The Rangers think a superspreader event is a great way to welcome Opening Day, while the rest of the ballparks plan to welcome a small number of fans back to the stands. The Commissioner uses the minors as his own private laboratory to try out a huge number of new rules in advance of CBA negotiations.
Shortstop, conqueror of the Durham Bull, and Pookie’s pal Willy Adames is Pottymouth’s Rays boyfriend for this season. Gavin Lux, the Dodger’s 2B with the heart in the shape of a baseball fills out her middle infield. Third baseman, conqueror of Aroldis Frickin’ Chapman, and non-draftee Mike Brosseau is Patti’s guy on the Rays. Catcher Will Smith, the Fresh Prince of LAD, caps off her boyfriend picks for the season.
Opening Day festivities in the CPBL included six mascots, from rainbows to the scales of justice to one who is just, um, pink. Here’s how to watch the games. Please take a spin through the best of MLB’s school picture day. Steak comes up more than you’d think.

This week, I rant for 37 minutes, mostly about 2020 but also about life.

Theo Epstein departs the Cubs, leading to lots of speculation about his next steps. Team ownership? The Commissioner's office? Shake things up? Or focus on his Foundation to be Named Later and the Player’s Alliance? NCiB votes for revolution. Also in CubsWorld, Wrigley Field is designated a National Historical Landmark, which seems overdue as well as a windfall in tax credits.
The Washington Nationals find a new Triple A home with the Rochester Red Wings, which Patti and the Pottymouth endorse 100%. Nothing personal, Fresno. More feel good news --the Nats partner with a local restaurant group to offer a turkey fry in the outfield, raising needed funds for the local “Fill the Fridge” initiative. The Dodgers host a drive-through holiday festival to celebrate the season and their World Series win, and to benefit their team charities. Brian Cashman, GM of the Yankees, camps out in Yankee Stadium to raise awareness of teen homelessness. Will 2021 be the year we finally get a new women’s baseball league? Sue Parsons Zipay, of that “old” women’s baseball league, the AAGBL, is trying to make that happen.
The “small asshole detour” from happy talk takes us to Robinson Cano busted a second time for PEDs and missing the entire 2021 season, Aroldis Frickin’ Chapman's suspension for throwing 101 mph at Mike Brosseau’s head reduced two 2 games, and Cody Bellinger's shoulder surgery to repair damage from his homerun celebration.
Pottymouth’s CPBL BF Lin An-Ko wins Rookie of the Year. There’s drama in the finals of the KBO. And even with familiar faces on every team, a COVID outbreak makes the Dominican League a lot less fun. Domestic abusers Odubel Herrera and Domingo Germán may be working stints there as a redemption tour.

They must, right? Or else why would a team full of talented, enthusiastic, exciting, and outspoken players hire Tony “unwritten rules” LaRussa? The 76 year old white guy called out Tatis Jrs’ grand slam, allowed that protests against racial injustice are okay as long as they are “sincere,” and claims not to have a racist bone in his body. Yeah, we rant again. And really, are there only three candidates qualified in the whole world of baseball for the three open managerial positions? Way to grow the game, MLB. We have some words for the Tigers hiring of A.J. Hinch, and some Alex Cora musings.
We throw some belated appreciation Corey Seager’s way, and give Jon Lester the NCiB seal of approval for buying the first beer for each fan at a whole slew of Chicago bars if they say to put it on Jon’s tab. It has to be Miller Lite though so we are not all in on this. Yasiel Puig, man. Just about when you win us over, an assault allegation comes to light, dating back to Dodger days. The Mets have a new owner with a big fat wallet, and we like how he’s spending it on staff and small businesses. Let’s see what happens with free agents.
Now that MLB’s season is over, they’ve washed their hands of any COVID testing and follow up responsibility so we may never know the result of Justing Turner’s mask-free World Series on-field celebration. There are a wide range of predictions on what the official consequences will be -- the collateral damage is a lot of disappointment from long-time fans. In other COVID news, the powers that be are looking to next season and perhaps staggering the minor-league training and season schedule to accommodate distancing and safety protocols. Which minor leaguers will have no say in because they DON’T HAVE A UNION. The hot stove is upon us so we catch you up on contract options, non-tendering of players, and what to watch for in free agency offers.
Our good friend, Clive Hsu, English-language CPBL commentator for Eleven Sports, joins us to talk about the Taiwan Series. Two games into the best of seven championship, Pottymouth’s Lions and Clive’s pick, the Brothers, are tied at one game each. There’s some thoughtful analysis, some predictions, and some wagering (Pottymouth offers to sing, Clive and Patti want her to get a tattoo). Don’t forget to check Pottymouth’s guide to Winter Baseball once the CPBL wraps up.

It turns out that strong and steady won out over magic and momentum in the Division Series. We are grateful to Mike Brosseau for a moment of poetic justice as he hit the series winning homer off of Aroldis Chapman. We will miss the joy that the Padres bandwagon brought to us and yet we hopped on the Rays train pretty fast after the dance off. Patti learns how to pronounce Arozarena, because Pottymouth already called dibs on next year’s boyfriend so we’ll be saying it a lot. We examine our biases around Manny Machado and Cody Bellinger.
We applaud the Supreme Court decision to let the minor league case proceed as a class action suit for minimum wage for players. There are rants around the Appalachian League now being a collegiate wooden bat play-for-free league, and a why the heck are fans going to be in the stands for the NLCS and WS rant. We like the Dodgers Drive in much better. And then there is heartbreak. The soon-to-be-ex-wife of Patti’s very first baseball boyfriend, Omar Vizquel, has publicly accused him of abuse. The red wine and talk therapy are helping, and we believe women, so we have to work through the pain. We are dealing with A Lot Of Stuff.
We can always count on International Baseball. Turns out the CPBL is not as over as we thought.
