The New York Yankees were swept by the Boston Red Sox over the weekend, officially burying the Yankees’ 2023 campaign. Jake and Jordan break down the series and deliver a Yankees postmortem. Then, the guys touch on Pete Alonso’s brain fart after Mayson Winn’s first hit, respond to yet another strange comment made by Orioles owner John Angelos, marvel at the current form of Julio Rodriguez, debate the criteria of a cycle, and react to Dylan Crews’ promotion to Double-A in another edition of Prospect Corner.

Oakland Athletics fans conducted a ”Reverse Boycott” earlier this week in an attempt to get the owners to sell the team. But what does that actually accomplish? Jake and Jordan break it down, along with A’s fan Kyle Madson who was one of the 28,000 (!) fans in attendance. Then, Jake and Jordan dive into an incredibly underwhelming Subway Series, celebrate the resurgence of Gary Sanchez and Aaron Hicks, marvel at Gunnar Henderson’s Grand Slam, and ask the burning question: What would a hypothetical “Unimmaculate Inning” be? (And the answer is not "maculate".)

Jake and Jordan begin the show by highlighting some of their favorite prospects across the variety of Top 100 Prospects lists. Then, one of the leagues best pitching prospects, Grayson Rodriguez of the Baltimore Orioles, joins the guys to talk about his recent engagement, how the Baltimore organization has changed since he got drafted, his love of hunting, and more. Finally, the boys cap off the episode by saluting the players that are heading overseas to play ball.

Your 100% unionized (most of the time) podcast team breaks down the process in motion to authorize the MLBPA to collectively bargain on behalf of minor league players.  It’s happening. Gunnar Henderson takes over the league lead in Quality Hair Above Replacement.  Pottymouth explores the alternate career choices of Rafael Devers and Kike Hernandez. Paul Goldschmidt, Spencer Strider, and Aaron Judge are on tears that did not appear in our truly abysmal pre-season predictions. If you are going to have sex at a ballpark, clearly Rogers Centre is your best choice.  There will be MLB baseball in Mexico City, WBC rosters grow, and so does Puerto Rican women’s baseball. We crosstrain with the WNBA. We say, “follow us for cocktail recommendations but don’t go to Vegas with our predictions,” “We’re going to segue from THAT to unionizing the minors?,” and “I need a chopstick.”
