Alex, Chris, Jesse, Jon, and Josh offer their weekly teaspoon of nonsense. They discuss Marcus Semien's awkward look in his introductory press conference with the Texas Rangers (0:47), Marc Bergevin being let go by the Montreal Canadiens (14:31), and how technology has changed sports (20:19). The crew converse about the Pats-Bills matchup on Monday night (41:01), the NFL MVP race (52:14), and their fantasy football league (54:36). They also talk about early title contenders in the NBA (56:03), early title contenders in the NHL (58:23), and Brady Tkachuk vs. Brendan Lemieux (59:41). The show ends with everyone's Qualin Award nominations (67:10), and a brief discussion on Tyreek Hill's challenge to Usain Bolt (72:06).

Emily & John discuss the Mets making BIG moves, Scherzer, Seager, Semien, the Rangers, the Mariners, AL West going off, who’s left?, Yankees tender errybody, deadlines, THE LOCKOUT, MLB mixing baseballs, a new contest, voicemails, Top 6 Pivot Podcasts & more!

The boys jump right into two big topics that are happening this week: the MLB Lockout & Free Agency. They discuss the points the league and players union are negotiating over as well as the worthiness of the whole thing. After, they discuss the insane free agency signings. This leads into the boys debating whether Javier Baez is a good fit for the Detroit Tigers and what he will bring to the table and if they are done signing big names or not. Even though it's been a hell of a ride, there are still more big names out there and the boys predict where they see them going. They round out the show with some Collection Corner and soe Clint 'Red Thunder' Frazier talk!

Alex and Paul let you know the final fate of the Guardians players recently DFA'd, break down the wild flurry of Free Agent signings happening across baseball, and cry about the Guardians not doing a single thing. 

Max Scherzer 3 years $130M from the Mets.  $43.3M a year.  Nice one-two punch with deGrom.  
Aaron Rodgers toe isn't bothering his performances the last two weeks.   Big win at home over the Rams yesterday at Lambeau.
Lamar Jackson four picks and the Ravens get the win 16-10.   Just win baby.
Giants and Jets win and no one cares.

Patti and Pottymouth poke holes in the sticky substance mid-season zero tolerance enforcement plan, Seriously, we have a million better approaches to solving this problem. The Disney Prince is already hurt, umpires are in a stop and frisk situation, and the Astros have still never been punished for actual cheating. Joey Votto is Abigail’s hero, and ours too. The Os vs Blue Jays series gives us hot boyfriends hitting bombs and a bench-clearing brawl with exceedingly high qHAR (quality hair above replacement) thanks to Vladdy and Freddy Galvis. Their Saturday game was a derby itself, with Patti’s Os bf and pick for ROY Ryan Mountcastle making a bid with a 3 homer performance, previous bf Cedric Mullins with two, and current TOR bf Marcus Semien with two. Did we mention Baby Shark is back?

AA Bowie BaySox players come close to sleeping in their cars because of unnecessarily excessive housing costs vs tiny, tiny paychecks. Thank you More than Baseball for providing housing grants to minor league players and generous fans offering to host players or raise money to pay their housing costs, but maybe, just maybe, billionaire owners should do the right thing. Pains us to say this but the Astros are a good model here housing players in team-owned apartment houses near all their affiliate parks. MLB eliminates a whole slew of COVID  protocols for fully-vaxxed players and staff, and just about all ballparks go to 100% capacity. What could possibly go wrong? Pottymouth laments the Dbacks’ losing streak and the subsequent lack of dancing.

Remember in the before times when we had the joy of snow days? Anti-vaxxers delay vaccinations at Dodger Stadium, which we firmly believe disrupts both the possibility of fans in stands and the opportunity for snow days. Women continue to rock baseball, as Sarah Goodrum becomes the first woman to serve as a minor league hitting coordinator. For the fourth time in 50 years, the Hall of Fame voters elected 0 new members -- this time it seems character counts.  We ponder inconsistency over time, possible changes moving forward, and compare ARod to cilantro. 

Our Blue Jays boyfriends may be duking it out at 2B, with Pottymouth picking Santiago Espinal, and Patti claiming Marcus Semien, who she had planned on choosing later as an A.  It’s Sho time in the Cincinnati Reds outfield where Pottymouth takes veteran Shogo Akyama and Patti really, really wants to have a beer with Jesse Winker. Fire up ESPN Deportes and watch the Caribbean Series -- Pottymouth profiles the teams so you can pick your favorite. We don’t bother with a spring training countdown because we still don’t believe it is happening on time.
