In this episode of Sports the NEMO Way we bring the best Miami, Florida Marlins to the table for discussion.

Season 3, Episode 1: Ohtani's signing with the Dodgers; Detroit's new pitchers Jack Flaherty and Kenta Maeda along with Andrew Chafin; Automated Balls and Strikes (a.k.a. RoboUmp); and a book review of "Singles and Smiles" the story of PCL and Negro Leagues star Artie Wilson; and congrats to Hall of Famer Jim Leyland. We'll also talk about Hank Aaron, Willie Mays and Miguel Cabrera--their similarities and differences.

We hit the sweet spot between the end of the regular season and the kick off of the postseason. Corbin makes history, Adley sells some jerseys, Miggy Ro buys the kids Jordans, Myles steals all the bases, and Pottymouth considers extending Juan. Jazz, Josh, and Kim take the Marlins back to the postseason and Cal has things to say about why the Mariners are not there. We say heartfelt goodbyes to Tim Wakefield, and Mr. Oriole, Brooks Robinson. Farewells to Tito, near and dear to both of us, and to Miggy who has a great future ahead working with young players in the Tiger organization. The Giants call it done with Gabe, but we have no doubt he’ll get picked up quickly. Angel again demonstrates why the league needs better standards, or really any standards for umpire performance, but a kid gets a helmet. Turns out emotional support alligators are a real thing, but they still are not covered by ballpark policy in Philadelphia. It’s not too soon to prepare for Winter Ball, or to try to sell peanuts to Japanese ballparks. Congrats to the Orioles, cementing their OPACY home for another 30 years.

We say, “between the Queen of England and Ozzy Ozbourne,” “the preponderance of Rutschmans,’ and “weird animals you could hold.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Don’t you wish you had a week like Ronald Acuña Jr.? Most of it, anyway – probably not the part that requires the update of NCiB Stadium Rules.. Miggy passes more all-time milestones and Triston chips away at the Rookie marks. TJ Friedl has no walk-up song for a reason that makes us like him even more. New guys are coming up all over the place this time of year. BOS’s Wilyer Abreu debuts at Minute Maid, where he thought he’d be an Astro. NYY’s Jasson Dominguez debuts with a homer off of Verlander. Our Police Blotter update the Wander Franco debacle with girl #3. Patti explains last week’s waiver madness, LAA’s plan, and the failure thereof. Pottymouth looks at Spanish language broadcasting in MLB and wonder why WAS is not part of that. It’s Ladies Night if you want to get your nails done, but maybe not if you  want to learn more about women in baseball. And hey, COVID’s back - four CIN pitchers are out.

We say “Like a guy-Cougar,” “We’re going to start colonizing things any time now,” and “We have no ‘ladies’ cred.” 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.

In this episode of Sports the NEMO Way we bring the First Basemen to the table for discussion.

In advance of the Winter Meetings, starting pitcher signings are the big news but NCiB boyfriends are also on the move, including a full boyfriend trade between the Brewers and Mariners. Miguel Cabrera announces his upcoming retirement, reminding us that in addition to spectacular batting stats, he’ll leave a legacy of giving back to his communities. The Winter Meetings bring us a new draft lottery, the Rule 5 Draft, and the Take the Field program focusing on women working in baseball. Ideally, they will also shake loose the Free Agent shortstop market and a home for Aaron Judge. The players’ union, the MLBPA, renewed Tony Clark’s contract through 2027  so  that  he will remain Executive Director through the next contract negotiations. Players voted in a new executive committee, heavy on the pitchers and Ian Happ. Ronald Acuña keeps the Hammers streak going by winning the LVPB home run derby and more  familiar faces join the winter baseball scene in both Venezuela and the Dominican Republic. Baseball for All’s Justine Seigal returns to  Mexico to lead clinics for  girls  and  coach some winter ball. Also in the DR, Nelson Cruz and friends lead the annual “Batting Clean Up” beach clean up event. Team USA finally announces the rest of their WBC pitching squad. The Tampa Bay Rays toss their hat in the ring for a chance to develop a new ballpark along with residential, hotel, and commercial space.

We say “there aren’t enough fbombs in the world to get you to move to Florida,” “can’t we call them non-winners?” and “mystery soup.” Get boosted, 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.

This week the boys discuss the Toronto Blue Jays' approach to defense. This young team are putting their analytics to work and dominating with a four-man outfield in many scenarios. The boys debate how predictable hitting leads to this sort of brilliant fielding. The NL West is the best division in baseball right now-- change their mind. The Dodgers, Padres, Giants, Diamondbacks and Rockies are taking the league by storm, being the only division with every club over .500. This discussion turns into how to fix bad teams and what makes the good ones at the start of the season great. In Fantasy Factory, Steve answers questions, including how fantasy owners should approach relief pitchers on their rosters. The boys round out the show with Collection Corner and some Yogi Berra trivia!

• Thoughts on The NFL Draft: Who made it out on top, and who (*cough* the Patriots) made the most mistakes? One team is getting a lot of praise, but not from everyone at The W.
• College Football: Lincoln Riley continues to do shady things, but who’s surprised? 🤷 
• MLB: One month into baseball season, we have a few buy-or-sell teams. Are the giants for real again? Are the Red Sox that bad? And what is wrong with the Central favorite?

All that and more on this week's episode of The W!

The Yankees fought tooth and nail in court to keep "The Letter" sealed -- now it has been leaked and the MLB press uses it to remind everyone the Astros "cheated" to win the 2017 World Series. Or did they? Also this week -- Miguel Cabrera rapped his 3000th career this - who will be next? Did Hooks & Runs jinx Roki Sasaki? The Reds are awful, the A's home attendance is worse and the new Nicholas Cage film.

Episodes Mentioned: We first discussed Hecker's Hitters in Episode 75. Our thoughts on reforming the NFL's absurd overtime rules were presented in Episode 84.

Errata: Yadier Molina announced last Fall that 2022 would be his final MLB season. Robinson Cano needs more than 240 hits to reach 3,000.

Check It Out:
Andrew: Nicholas Cage's new film, "The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent"
Craig: Kurt Vile's new album, "(watch my moves)"

Shawn Travis Kemp Sr. (born November 26, 1969) is an American former professional basketball player who played for the Seattle SuperSonics, Cleveland Cavaliers, Portland Trail Blazers, and Orlando Magic in the National Basketball Association (NBA). Nicknamed the "Reign Man", he was a six-time NBA All-Star and a three-time All-NBA Second Team member.

MLB's new Mr. 3,000, Miguel Cabrera not only has joined the club, he's also in some rare company, and the boys explain how special that is and who is next. Kyle Schwarber lost his mind over a slightly bad call which led to his ejection. Should baseball seriously consider robo umps? This discussion leads to the boys selecting their favorite ejections ever. In Fantasy Factory, the question looming over the AL West needs to be asked? How the heck are the Seattle Mariners in first place? And elsewhere, is Byron Buxton a top-10 outfielder? The boys give their takes and round out the show with Collection Corner.

In this snack-sized episode, Patti and Pottymouth hit the road to see some High-A baseball and record on location at Wilmington Brew Works. Yankees fans pelt Guardians outfielders with debris and it may be our fault for not including “Just don’t throw shit on the field” in our ballpark rules. Myles Straw climbing the outfield wall to defend Steven Kwan inks him onto Patti’s BF list for next year, and former bf Josh Naylor explains how things should have gone in absolutely NCiB terms. Hey Miggy, you’re so fine! We can’t not salute historic  hit #3000. Kelsie Whitmore of the Staten Island Ferry Hawks pinch runs her way into the history books.

In our Police Blotter, Tim Anderson flips off Cleveland fans and we explain the whole Yankee Letter situation. There’s energizer Panda Power in the LMB. We saw the pitch clock in action during a highly efficient game between the Wilmington Blue Rocks and the Hickory Crawdads, then backed up our anecdotal findings with actual data.  During its first 132 games in use, the current pitch clock rules have knocked an average of 20 minutes off of game time.

We say “Mr. Celery,” “karma bit them in the butt,” and “Nakken rhymes with Kraken.”
