After supporting the local adult-beverage economy in honor of Pottymouth’s birthday, we give a little love to the World Series, including the parade with dogs, flying beer, mic drops, and possibly chaps, and move on to Hot Stove Season. Patti previews what to expect when – options accepted and declined, qualifying offers, trades, and full-on free agent negotiations. We ponder big moves like Joey’s lifetime with CIN coming to a close, and Nelson’s lifetime in the sport winding down. Mookie makes a questionable judgement call.  MLB’s settlement with the Valley Cats and the Sea Unicorns ends another opportunity for the Supreme Court to re-examine baseball’s anti-trust exemption. Elly De La Cruz has a first pitch in LIDOM, Cesar Hernandez is lighting up LVBP, and the CPBL’s convoluted playoff system is in full swing. MLB Awards season has begun with the MLBPA Player’s Choice awards, honoring Ronald, Shohei, Corbin, and Gunnar, looking like a preview of upcoming MVP and ROY nods. Aaron Judge wins the Roberto Clemente Award this season for the work of his All Rise Foundation which is well-deserving of a look.  Patt wants you to read Doris Kearns Goodwin’s “Wait Till Next Year.”

Liam is our favorite Castellanos but Nick is a close second.  Pottymouth is rightfully preening over her pre-season pick of Corbin Carroll. Patti calls early dibs on Evan Carter for next season. There was so much more going on in  that 15 pitch at bat between Nathaniel Lowe and Dean Kremer than met the eye. Every single team in the final four has players we love to watch, so we dug deeper for our picks. Respect for Dusty aside, we are over Houston. The Rangers have an edge there if you can get past the whole Creed situation. We appreciate an underdog but ARI are scabs. We are pro-Phils for lead-off hitter Schwarber, Nats North, sneaky good hitting, and very specific heckling. And Liam. In the world outside the playoffs, the Giants interviewed Alyssa Nakken, the first woman to be an official candidate for an MLB manager position. Police blotter and international baseball collide, as Wander Franco may or may not play winter ball in the DR. Nelson Cruz has already committed to managing Team DR in the 2026 WBC so we are requesting leave now.

We say “There’s a Maryland state dinosaur?” “I met David Byrne in an elevator,” and “Peanuts are hard enough to get into a Japanese ballpark but we can get domestic abusers in there just fine.” 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.

We kick off the new year with Rockies and Rangers boyfriends. Patti is already considering Rangers pitching for our wacky fantasy league, but that’s separate from picking Josh Smith, because LSU and other compelling factors.  Pottymouth selects Nathaniel Lowe because he’s a pottymouth, and other compelling reasons. For the Rockies, Patti and Dante Bichette both see the potential in Brendan Rodgers, and Pottymouth likes that Yonatan Daza is always dancing. A Dominican court convicted ten people on charges including criminal organization, use of illegal firearms, attempted murder, and complicity in the murder attempt of David Ortiz in 2019. Former Oriole Adam Jones helps Pottymouth’s dad feel better about the Red Sox. We reassure you that movement is happening, quietly and slowly, toward the minor league’s first collective bargaining agreement.

So much happening in international baseball including a preview of the Serie del Caribe, a heads up to start making plans for the 9th Women’s Baseball World Cup to be held in Thunder Bay, Ontario, and the news that diplomacy prevails and Cuban-born MLB players will be permitted to play for the Cuban team in the World Baseball Classic. On a happy pod note, Patti and the Pottymouth are officially going to Miami for two quarterfinal games and one semi-final game so get in touch if you’ll be there too! Patti wants you to read a fiction series about hockey because you’ll cry in a good way, and makes Pottymouth drink a Christmas beer, also in a good way.

We say, “that sounds like a Patrick Swayze movie,” “at some point that was not yet now,” and “this is what happens when I break my toe and I’m on vacation.” 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.
