Not sure if it is our pride or our ages talking but we’ve reached the point where active players we’ve profiled on the show are now Hall of Famers. Congrats to Joe Mauer and Adrian Beltre, and also to Todd Helton even if he was before our (NCiB) time. The hot stove takes Philly favorite Rhys Hoskins to MIL, and brings Cookie Carrasco home to CLE. Joc Pederson tries out yet another NL West team, and the Nats bring Joey Gallo to a ballpark near us. Congrats on the retirement, Collin McHugh, and please spend some of it reactivating your podcast. We profile a couple of 2023 rookie sensations for the Twins, Royce Lewis and Edouard Julien. Over in Wrigley, Pottymouth selects Mike Tauchman and Patti picks Patrick Wisdom. Congrats to the LIDOM champion Tigres de Licey, and to the Ozzie Guillen-managed Tiburones for bringing both a brawl and a drought-breaking championship to the LVBP. We are angry and mournful at the theft of the Jackie Robinson statue from a Wichita park. We are ticked we were beaten to all the good “total eclipse” jokes as the Guardians ponder opening day in totality. Hey check out this super-fun Galentine’s event hosted by Babe’s Babes that we joined last week!

We say “My drum kit was a big squirrel,” “We picked licking his bat as a battle and that was so wrong,” and “There should be a Gallo blossom out there somewhere.” 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.

mlbplayoffs starting with a bang.  Love #bryceharper showing up in an #alleniverson shirt.   @phillies  #fans were ready for #postseason #baseball as were the @twins who broke an 18 game losing streak.   
Why is their baseball in #tampabay  @Rays drawing 19K for a #playoff game?  I know it was holding 25K at #thetrop but they seem so laissez faire there. 
 #nflfootball tomorrow night on #prime for #tnf  @ChicagoBears visit  @commanders I just don't like that name.  No effort put into it.  
#transferportal in #collegefootball will have a time limit, 45 days broken into two periods. But #coaches can still leave anytime they like.  Got it.  Thanks.  Asking for a friend.  
#jamesharden if only #nbabasketball teams cared about acquiring you as much as you think they do.  They don't.  No one wants or needs you.  
#soccer such a fascinating sport.  If I only found it that fascinating.

All sports. One podcast. (even hockey)

In this episode CJ & Spilly talk Texas Rangers and the ridiculous depth of their lineup. They also talk about the Yankees-Dodgers series.  An alarming Mariners stat has emerged and they take a curios approach to pitching development. Royce Lewis avoids major injury in what was a scary collision at first base. Is it time for a rules adjustment around first base? 

In this episode CJ and Spilly breakdown the struggles of Twins' shortstop Carlos Correa. Spilly identifies an issue and offers a solution. Julio Rodriguez is off to a slow start in Seattle and now has been dropped in the order, why that may be a good thing. The Guardians offense is one of the worst in baseball and power is at the core of the issue. Teams are already inquiring about the Royals' Aroldis Chapman, would you want him in your bullpen? 

The boys kick off this week talking about a MIA player that recently returned into the spotlight. Enter, Kumar Rocker. With the draft coming up in July, he's joined an Independent baseball team in hopes of being selected in the first round again. Is it too late? Breaking news hit everywhere today with leaks from the first place Minnesota Twins that newly signed shortstop Carlos Correa will opt-out after this season, and also that the Washington Nationals will try to trade Juan Soto as part of their rebuild. The boys put on their GM hats and lay out the best trade scenarios for him. They enter Fantasy Factory answering the curious case of Bryce Harper's fantasy value now that he's out for a while with an elbow injury. His one-time third MVP talks have lessened, and now he's looking like trade bait for fantasy owners. After, Steve gives his Yah or Nah on two fantasy trades and then the boys round out the show with Collection Corner.
