Spring training is underway for the Detroit Tigers in Lakeland, Florida. There were many takeaways in the first five days of camp, including Riley Greene's diet, Spencer Torkelson's comments, Casey Mize's sliders and Jace Jung's opportunity, among other things. Most notably, the Tigers have a businesslike vibe behind the scenes without letting their emotions get too high or too low. The same was true for the Tigers during their 31-11 run to the postseason in the 2024 season. The culture has translated into the 2025 season. Evan and Mark share their evaluations of the Tigers in the 2024-25 offseason, featuring five external additions: Alex Cobb, Gleyber Torres, Tommy Kahnle, Jack Flaherty and John Brebbia. Who were the best additions, and who could've been left on the free-agent market? As for Cobb, the veteran suffered a right hip injury and won't be ready for Opening Day. How will the Tigers replace Cobb in the starting rotation? It could be a competition between Maeda and Mize. Follow Evan on X/Twitter here. Read Evan's most recent work here

This episode of "Days of Roar" features two special guests: Detroit Tigers third baseman/outfielder Matt Vierling and Baseball America prospect insider Ben Badler. To start the show, Evan and Mark discuss Tigers legend Justin Verlander signing a one-year, $15 million contract with the San Francisco Giants. Interestingly, this is the same deal — in terms of years and money — that Alex Cobb secured from the Tigers. Should the Tigers have signed Verlander instead of Cobb? The answer depends on balancing business and baseball considerations. Ben Badler provides insight into 16-year-old Dominican outfielder Cris Rodriguez, who is signing with the Tigers as part of the international signing period. Rodriguez is the highest-ranked international prospect the Tigers have ever signed, at No. 4 on Baseball America's list. Meanwhile, Matt Vierling dives into a variety of topics, including team culture, personal leadership, developing pull-side power as a hitter, game planning for pitchers, and even his 2012 Ford Escape. To finish the show, Evan and Mark revisit the chances of Tarik Skubal signing a long-term extension after agreeing to a $10.15 million salary in his second of three arbitration-eligible years before free agency.

The Detroit Tigers signed right-hander Alex Cobb to a one-year, $15 million contract, adding the 37-year-old veteran to their starting rotation alongside Tarik Skubal, Reese Olson and Jackson Jobe. But is Cobb the right move? Evan and Mark explore the pros and cons of the Cobb signing, along with the Tigers' need to upgrade at third base or first base to contend for the American League Central in 2025. Could free agents like Alex Bregman and Paul Goldschmidt or trade candidates like Yandy Díaz fill the gaps? Things are trending in the right direction with Bregman. The guys break down the potential competition for Spencer Torkelson as Colt Keith and Justyn-Henry Malloy take ground balls at first base this offseason. Evan also shares his 2025 Opening Day roster prediction 1.0, highlighting concerns at third base, first base, shortstop, the bench and the bullpen.

Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner talk MLB Playoffs. The guys are red hot on the podcast and offer up some best bets. Overview The podcast focuses on breaking down the ongoing MLB Championship Series. Hosts Munaf and Griffin analyze the Cleveland Guardians vs. New York Yankees in the American League and the Los Angeles Dodgers vs. New York Mets in the National League. They discuss key player performances, team dynamics, and their betting predictions. Player & Team Analysis Garrett Cole's Dominance (Yankees): Cole's strong performance in Game 1 against the Guardians is highlighted. He boasts a 2.84 ERA against Cleveland in 7 starts since joining the Yankees, with a 5-1 record. Munaf notes that Cole went six innings in most appearances, reinforcing his ability to anchor the Yankees' rotation (6:17 - 8:46). Alex Cobb's Struggles (Guardians): Griffin criticizes Cleveland's decision to start Alex Cobb, who has underperformed with a 7.94 ERA in the postseason. Cobb has allowed five earned runs over 5.2 innings, questioning the Guardians' pitching decisions, especially considering their strong bullpen (2:29 - 6:16). Dodgers Bullpen Issues: The Dodgers' decision to rely on bullpen games, particularly in Game 2 against the Mets, raises concerns. Griffin notes how the bullpen's overuse during the regular season may lead to fatigue, as seen when the Dodgers struggled in key moments against the Mets (8:46 - 11:50). Tanner Biby's Inexperience (Guardians): Tanner Biby, the Game 2 starter for the Guardians, is young and inexperienced in the postseason. Griffin expresses skepticism over Biby's ability to handle the Yankees' lineup, predicting he might have a short leash in this critical game (13:15 - 18:24). Yankees Offense: The Yankees, led by stars like Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton, are considered a more potent lineup than the Guardians. Munaf emphasizes how the Yankees' offense, combined with Garrett Cole's pitching, gives them a strong advantage over Cleveland (8:46 - 13:14). Quote Breakdown Griffin Warner on Underdogs (2:29): "I really liked a lot of the underdogs which unfortunately took two-one leads...I don't know that I see Cleveland's bullpen holding up in a seven-game series." Griffin reflects on the challenges for underdog teams, specifically Cleveland, citing bullpen overuse as a major concern. Munaf on Garrett Cole (6:17): "Garrett Cole has been dominant...5-1 record against Cleveland since 2021." Munaf's analysis reinforces Cole's historical success against the Guardians, suggesting confidence in the Yankees' pitching for Game 2. Griffin on Alex Cobb (6:16): "Starting Alex Cobb was a very interesting choice...he's pitched so little this entire season." Griffin is critical of Cleveland's decision-making, questioning whether Cobb should even be pitching in the postseason due to his lack of regular season innings. Griffin on the Dodgers' Bullpen (8:46): "The bullpen...overstretched and I don't know that all these managers are great at choosing the best matchups." Griffin's insight reveals how the Dodgers' bullpen strategy has been questionable, especially in the postseason. Betting Insights Griffin's Bet on the Mets (42:13): Griffin bets on the New York Mets, noting that Walker Bueller for the Dodgers may not be in top form, and expects Severino to keep the Mets in the game. He recommends waiting for potential line movement before placing a bet. Munaf's Bet on Over 7.5 (43:43): Munaf suggests betting on the over for the Mets-Dodgers Game 3, predicting a high-scoring game due to both teams' ability to produce runs, particularly given Walker Bueller's uncertain form. Key Statistics Garrett Cole vs. Guardians: 5-1 record, 2.84 ERA in 7 starts since 2021 (6:17). Alex Cobb's Postseason: 7.94 ERA, 5 earned runs, 5.2 innings (6:16). Guardians Bullpen Overuse: Cleveland's relievers have been heavily utilized, which may affect their performance in a long series (2:29). Learn more about your ad choices.

Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner are red hot in MLB betting. The guys preview the entire Wednesday MLB Playoff card. They also give out more winning best bets. Introduction: Host (Manaf Manji): Introduces the podcast (0:09) and explains a scheduling change allowing for discussions on all four MLB playoff series (0:09-0:51). Griffin Warner: Acknowledges a profitable playoff season, reflecting on the regular season's success (0:52-1:08). Discussion Highlights: Orioles vs. Royals (0:27): Manaf: Mentions Griffin's prediction on the under for the Orioles-Royals series, highlighting a dominant Royals pitching performance that limited the Orioles to three total runs. Griffin: Notes the Royals advanced without any overs, indicating the defensive strength that helped the Royals (1:25-1:26). Impact of Home Field & Umpiring: Griffin: Discusses the significance of home-field advantage, mentioning all series being tied 1-1. He emphasizes the challenge for teams with no extra-innings games played thus far, noting the importance of "last at bats" and competent umpires (2:55-4:06). Umpiring is critical, with Griffin noting that umpires are calling more strikes than usual, making it harder to score runs. Detroit Tigers vs. Cleveland Guardians (Game 3 Prediction): Pitcher Analysis: Detroit's pitching strategy, led by Bo Brisky, is likely to challenge the Guardians, who rely on Alex Cobb, who hasn't pitched in a postseason game since 2013 (4:54-9:48). Griffin: Suggests the Tigers have an advantage with AJ Hinch's managerial experience and bullpen depth. Manaf: Underscores Cobb's long gap between playoff appearances and suggests that the Tigers' ability to string hits together could carry them through. Phillies vs. Mets (Game 4 Prediction): Mets Confidence: The Mets lead the series 2-1, and Griffin discusses their momentum and superior bullpen despite flaws (12:36-14:51). Player Performance: Manaf highlights the strong recent performances of Mets' pitcher Jose Quintana and Phillies' Ranger Suarez during the regular season. Quintana's solid 7-inning shutout against the Phillies is noted (14:52-17:25). Both predict a low-scoring game, favoring the under in the first five innings. Yankees vs. Royals (Game 3 Prediction): Griffin: Expresses skepticism about the Yankees' ability to win on the road, emphasizing the importance of playoff baseball strategies like aggressive baserunning (stealing bases) and capitalizing on every opportunity (17:26-22:16). Manaf: Points out the underwhelming postseason performance of Aaron Judge, particularly his high strikeout rate (21:02-22:15). Both lean toward betting on the Royals and another under bet due to the tight defense and pitchers' performance. Dodgers vs. Padres (Game 4 Prediction): Griffin: Stresses the significance of the Dodgers' struggling pitching rotation, with Landon Knack stepping in due to key injuries (26:36-31:26). He expects a high-scoring game but predicts that the Padres' strong bullpen will help them close the series. Manaf: Agrees, predicting early runs and suggesting a first five innings bet on the over as the best strategy. Betting Advice and Best Bets: Griffin's Best Bet: Tigers to win at home, citing a mismatch between Cobb's long layoff and the Tigers' efficient bullpen management (32:06-32:55). Manaf's Best Bet: Under four runs in the first five innings of the Phillies-Mets game, betting on solid starting pitching from Quintana and Suarez (32:55-34:37). Conclusion: The episode ends with a reflection on the successful season, with Griffin and Manaf thanking their listeners and promoting a pregame.com discount (34:37-36:19). Both express optimism for continued success in predicting playoff outcomes. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
