This week each of us bring a different player to the table that had their career marred by injury. It sucks to have a shining career ended by injury or health, but which players did we think really had it bad? For our This Week In Baseball, we discuss the dedication of the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1939. Speeches and festivities abound, but just how much of an impact the Hall's very existence had on baseball?Our Hall of Famer this week is Waite Hoyt. He brought wins to the table, but did he have enough oomph to deserve a spot in Cooperstown? For our parting shots we speak on the life and impact of Mary Dobkin, the return of Rhys Hoskins to Philly, and the colorful history of the foreign ballplayer in Japan.Enjoy our new crop of weekly commercials in between segments with Roger Maris' baseball game, Bob Uecker for Miller Lite, and Bert Blyleven for Century 21!Please join us as we discuss baseball topics and we continue our mission to make The Hall small. We hope you'll enjoy the ride.TimestampsThis Week In Baseball - 22:26Hall of Fame Discussion - 45:02Parting Shots - 57:33

In this episode of Sports the NEMO Way we bring the best of the Twins to the table for discussion.

Thursday's Minnesota Twins home opener will sound a little different this year. Longtime broadcaster Dick Bremer stepped down at the end of last season after 40 years as the TV voice of the Twins. Now in a special assistant role in the organization's front office, Bremer threw out the first pitch Thursday. Before that, he got behind an MPR News microphone to talk baseball with Minnesota Now host Cathy Wurzer. Use the audio player above to listen to the full conversation. Subscribe to the Minnesota Now podcast on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.   How strange has it been to not be on the air for spring training and for the home opener?Yeah, it's been strange in all the predictable places, I felt a little bit out of sorts, I guess, or unsure what to do with my time in January when I wasn't on the Twins caravan, which is a uniquely Minnesota Twins thing for the first time in four decades. And then like everybody else in the Upper Midwest, I dealt with a snowstorm at the end of March instead of being in Fort Myers. And now here we are an opening day and that's all part of it right? When you retire you it's an adjustment for everybody, regardless of his or her walk of life.What's your current role with twins?I'm doing some special projects. I've actually been doing some writing for the Twins magazine, recording some things for the Twins radio broadcasts, making public appearances emceeing events and all that. It's an interesting role that I have with the Twins, and one that I'm very grateful for because of whenever the time was going to come, I still wanted to be connected to the team as someone who was really connected and intimately connected with the team for 40 years.Describe the dance for folks done between the play by play person and the color analyst. What's that like?Well, for the longest time, it was just one guy for 25 years. It was Bert Blyleven, it was me and Harmon Killebrew for a few years and Jim Kaat. In recent years they have rotated Justin Morneau, Torii Hunter, LaTroy Hawkins, Glen Perkins, Roy Smalley, so on and so forth. It's a bit of an adjustment, I suppose. But it really hasn't been that much of an adjustment because I've always taken the attitude that whether it was Bert Blyleven, or Paul Molitor, Jim Kaat, or, you know, whoever, that they really were the stars of the show, and I was just kind of a traffic cop and tried to draw out of them their baseball wisdom, and their baseball personality, if you will. It is no reflection at all on my abilities or lack thereof as a broadcaster, but I am the answer to a trivia question, who is the only major league announcer who's been privileged to work with five Hall of Fame players and that's meIt's been one of the great blessings of my 40 years. I won't ask your listeners to name them all. I'll try to do them all. Paul Molitor did games for a year Jack Morris, Jim Kaat, Herman Killebrew and of course Bert Blyleven, and they're all in Cooperstown.Who was the person to help you really move forward in broadcasting?Well, I don't know that any conversations were held or anything like that, but I, as you know, grew up in this area. So I was privileged to listen to Herb Carneal, Al Shaver, Ray Christensen, people like that. And when we lived in Missouri, listening to Jack Buck and Harry Caray do Cardinal games and the one thing they all had in common was they were very wearable if you will. There wasn't anything controversial about them. They did their job, night after night, year after year and as a result, they had long careers in one city, one region. And at least for me, that was always the goal to be able to say that you know what, I did a job. Hopefully I did it well, but I was able to have a long career with one team. And I guess 40 years later, you could say I guess that I succeeded.Tell us about the players you're gonna be watching for this season.Well, the team is very good. And some of their better players are very young and unfortunately, injury prone. Byron Buxton is pretty healthy and we've already been reminded how impactful he can be in a game and on a team when he's healthy. But the Twins have lost Royce Lewis for a while again, and hope to get him back. I think this Twins lineup, even though in the first five games, they struggled to score runs, they're going to be among the best offensive teams in the game. And we'll find out — that's part of the thrill of starting a new season, and we're five games into 162 games but you never really know what your team is going to look like, how they're going to play and page by page. It's like a book you, you find out exactly what you've got as the season plays along. So there's gonna be the Dick Bremer broadcast booth?I was very surprised when I found out about this weeks ago, and I've already kind of taken on the role of a landlord. I've already got a list of rules and regulations that have to be followed now in this booth. I might not reveal them all, I might just limit it to one or two. But I think that's within my right, don't you? If you're gonna name the booth after me I think I have a right to dictate what's going on in there.I'm hoping the family is there to celebrate with you.Yeah, they are. In fact, my son, Eric is a minor league broadcaster in Florida, he flew in yesterday, and my wife and daughter will be there as well. So that's what makes it really special, the fact that whatever happens here today, and you know whether I throw the ceremonial first pitch on three hops to home plate, at least we'll experience all that together. What is the great love of baseball for you? Oh, man. I was introduced to the game a long, long time ago, even before the Twins showed up here in 1961. Town team baseball is where my roots began with the game of baseball. I've been blessed to be around this Twins team in one capacity or another. I just love the game, I love the challenges. You've got individual matchups, pitcher versus batter. It's very much a team game, particularly when the team is out in the field. I just love everything about it and the game has changed, broadcasting has changed you know over the last few years as well, but there's still the beauty of the game that I enjoy and that will continue on regardless of what my role with the Twins is.

Tuesday October 16th, 1979 @ Memorial Stadium in Baltimore, MD The Pirates were able to rally around their heartbroken manager and stave off elimination in game five behind huge performances from Tim Foli, Bill Madlock, Bert Blyleven, and unexpectedly Jim Rooker. The series now heads back to Baltimore, with the odds still against Chuck Tanner's Terrors. To try and close out this series for the Orioles, manager Earl Weaver turns to one of his most dependable starters, Jim Palmer (10 - 6 3.30 ERA 155 IP). The tall, handsome right-hander, whom many would argue is one of, if not the best pitchers of his generation, was solid in game two, but the O's took the loss in the ninth despite his efforts. Taking the hill on short rest for the Pirates will be John Candelaria (14 - 9 3.22 ERA 207 IP). The tall and … tall lefty has battled injuries all year, and he was pummeled by the Orioles bats following the rain delay in game three. Despite those struggles, the Pirates know their lefty has the talent to deliver a gem any time he toes the rubber. Given the desperate circumstances, expect Chuck Tanner to turn to his ace reliever, Kent Tekulve (10 - 8 2.75 ERA 31 SV 134 ?IP). The lanky sidewinder is looking for redemption after a nightmare of an outing in game four. Can the Buccos keep their season alive for another day, or will the Birds seal the deal at home.

July 31 2004 - The long-anticipated trade of Nomar Garciaparra is finally accomplished as the Red Sox shortstop is traded to the Cubs in a four-team deal which includes the Twins and Expos. Chicago first acquires shortstop Orlando Cabrera from the Expos for shortstop Alex Gonzalez, relief pitcher Francis Beltran and minor leaguer Brendan Harris. They then pry 1B Doug Mientkiewicz from the Twins for minor league southpaw Justin Jones. Chicago then flips its two new acquisitions to the Bosox for Garciaparra , prospect Matt Murton and cash. July 31, 1990, Hall of Famer Nolan Ryan of the Texas Rangers wins the 300th game of his career. After failing to reach the milestone in his previous start, the 43-year-old Ryan defeats the Milwaukee Brewers, 11-3. Ryan allows only one earned run in seven and two-thirds innings against a lineup that includes Paul Molitor, Robin Yount, Gary Sheffield, and Dave Parker.Pete Rose singles off Phil Niekro to extend his hitting streak to 44 games, as the Reds edge the Braves 3 - 2.

Friday Afternoon, October 5th, 1979 @ Three Rivers Stadium in Pittsburgh, PA After two thrilling extra-inning victories in Cincinnati, the Pirates are headed home on the precipice of another World Series berth. The 'Family', as they are referred to by their loyal fans, have excelled in all facets of the game: great starting pitching (Candelaria and Bibby), tremendous defense (Foli, Madlock, and Ott), timely hitting (Stargell and Parker), and clutch bullpen heroics (Tekulve, Jackson, and unexpectedly Don Robinson!). Pittsburgh manager Chuck Tanner is confident those trends will continue, sending a veteran righty to the mound, Bert Blyleven (12 - 5 3.60 ERA 237 IP). The Dutch-born hurler will deliver one of the best games of his storied Hall-of-Fame career in his first career postseason start. Reds manager John McNamara is hoping to keep the Pirates big bats at bay with young righty Mike LaCoss (14 - 8 3.50 ERA 205 IP), a 23 year old All-Star in just his second season in the big leagues. If the youngster runs into early trouble, expect McNamara to turn to veteran lefty Fred Norman (11 - 13 3.64 ERA 195 IP). If things don't go the Reds way, it will likely be the final time that Joe Morgan dons a Cincy uniform, signaling an end to the era of the Big Red Machine. Tune in to another exciting conclusion of a championship series. Audio clips from joeydbball Youtube.

October 2, 1979 @ Riverfront Stadium For the fourth time this decade, the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Cincinnati Reds will face off for the National League Pennant. The Reds have had the advantage so far this decade, defeating the Buccos in the previous three series with a combined 9-2 record. Both of these teams have dominated their respective divisions throughout this decade (6th NL east crown for PIT, 5th NL West crown for CIN), but the teams look a bit different from their previous matchups. Yes, Willie Stargell and Dave Parker are still threats in the middle of the lineup; but now they are supported by the likes of Omar Moreno, Bill Madlock, Phil Garner, and others. Bert Blyleven and Jim Bibby have come in to stabilize the rotation. Danny Murtagh is long gone as manager; Chuck Tanner gets his first crack at the postseason. Ditto for John McNamara, who replaces legendary Reds skipper Sparky Anderson (who left for Detroit). Tom Seaver is the new ace for the Reds. Key cogs of the Big Red Machine, Pete Rose and Tony Perez, departed in free agency. Former MVPs Joe Morgan and George Foster have battled injuries all year, and it seems as if these games may be the last that Morgan will play in a Red uniform. The Great Johnny Bench and ever reliable Dave Concepcion are still solid as ever up the middle, but Cincinnati has needed the boost from others like Ray Knight and Dave Collins. This game one figures to be a pitchers' duel, with two aces going at it. Tom Seaver (16 - 6 3.14 ERA 215 IP) takes the hill in his first, and surprisingly only postseason game for the Reds since he was traded in '77. On the bump for Pittsburgh is lefty John Candelaria (14 - 9 3.22 ERA 207 IP), one of the most dependable left-handed starters in all of baseball for the better part of a decade (averaged 15 - 9 3.19 ERA 216 IP between '76 - '80). This game and this series will be determined by great defense and timely hitting, as many thrilling postseason series are. Tune in for a fantastic game one. Audio Clips from joeydbball Youtube.

Jim is joined by Adam Darowski, Head of User Experience at Sports Reference, to break down down the hall of fame candidacy of former MLB pitcher Rick "Big Daddy" Reuschel. First, Adam and Jim discuss how WAR essentially makes or breaks Reuschel's HOF candidacy (8:11) . Next, they cover Reuschel's 1977 MLB season with the Chicago Cubs, how he compares to HOF pitchers Jim Kaat and Bert Blyleven, and just how bad of teams Reuschel played on during his career (17:14). Finally, Adam and Jim take a look at where Reuschel ranks among the best pitchers of the 1970s (46:14), before they both state whether or not they believe Reuschel deserves a plaque in Cooperstown (58:39).

In this Episode of Sports the NEMO Way we bring the right handed starting pitchers to the table for discussion.

Hall of Fame Pitcher Bert Blyleven joins us to talk about his baseball career, how he taught himself to throw a curveball watching Sandy Koufax, winning 2 World Series Championships, being known as a prankster during his career, as well as his tv career as a broadcaster after he retired, plus, much, much, more!!

The Far Middle episode 79 is a special Thanksgiving edition, dedicated to the 1979 Pittsburgh Pirates. The 1970s Pirates were known as “The Lumber Company” due to the hurting they could do at the plate. Today, on the geopolitical stage, we see Putin trying to lay the lumber on Europe with his use of energy leverage. Nick discusses the new spin from the Left on Europe’s energy chaos, which is that Putin is helping jumpstart Europe’s energy transition. This view is simply a means to justify more climate policy mandates.Nick proceeds to dissect, with Bert Blyleven precision, the recent quote from EU Green Deal Chief Frans Timmermans that, “Renewables give us the freedom to choose an energy source that is clean, cheap, reliable, and ours.” Following Nick’s analysis of Mr. Timmermans’ mistruth, Mr. Timmermans is presented with the first-ever Crown of Claptrap Award.Next, Nick turns to former Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, who won the Nobel prize for economics last month. Nick takes exception with the policies of recent Fed chairs that have created negative real interest rates, bloated asset bubbles, stoked inflation, eroded work ethic, and created a false sense of fiscal security. “No one should ever confuse Ben Bernanke with someone like Paul Volcker,” says Nick.Related to Fed chairs is how the Federal Reserve’s leadership over the past roughly 20 years has been mono- or unipartisan under recent presidents. Nick argues the Fed has injected extreme monetary policy into the veins of our economy and the symptoms are too severe to ignore any longer.While on policy, Nick offers a simple solution to address conflicts of interest within government: if the whole of government is going to put its power into pushing and enforcing climate policies, then the whole of government should be precluded and prohibited from profiting through the purchase (direct or indirect) of stock or equity of companies or funds in the favored industries under such policies. It’s a pretty simple solution that Nick pegs has about the same odds of being adopted as the Pirates winning next year’s World Series (currently sitting at 150 to 1).In closing, Nick connects back to the episode’s start, linking the 1979 Pirates to one of his all-time favorite rock bands, Rush. Specifically noting the lyrics to their song “The Trees,” which was released as a single in 1979.
