Podcasts about Bichette

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker kick off a new week on the program breaking down the Blue Jays first two games of Spring Training. They begin with thoughts on what José Berríos' role might look like this season, Shane Bieber's status as we ramp up to Opening Day, and first impressions of Kazuma Okamoto. The boys then set up this afternoon's game against the Mets and discuss the scrutiny surrounding Bo Bichette's first reps at third base. Sportsnet's Madison Shipman (18:01) joins to share her early takeaways from Jays camp so far including Daulton Varsho's breakout potential and Berríos' first spring start today. Later Tim Britton (27:08) of The Athletic checks in on Bichette's work at the hot corner, how Canadian Jonah Tong might factor into the pitching staff, Francisco Lindor's injury, positional battles around the diamond, and more! The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

C-Lo's back with a tiny bit more from All-Star Weekend, and Juan Soto's views on Bo Bichette & moving to left field. Also, Devin Williams won't compare himself to Diaz. We talk about the likely MLB work stoppage next year. Bryce Harper criticized the Phillies GM for blabbing too much.

17 year professional baseball veteran Mike Kingery shares his philopsophy that was the foundation for his on field success. Through Solid Foundation Baseball Mike is one of the most sought after instructors, speakers, and clinicians helping kids maximize their abilities and understand the basic fundamentals of the game. From Bo, to Junior, to Bichette ... Kingery's on field prowess and connectivity with his peers has created one of the most compelling baseball journeys you'll hear.

BONUS EPISODE. In this bonus episode of The Terry Collins Show, we feature a very special conversation with the newest Mets free agent acquisition, BO BICHETTE. The interview comes from The Gibby Show archives - conducted by host John Gibbons and his co-host John Arezzi (now co-host of The Terry Collins Show), and took place in the winter of 2022. It is unlike any of the interviews you might have seen with Bichette since his Mets signing. A look at the person, his background, and the work ethic of Bichette is revealing in so many ways. We also cover the Baseball Hall of Fame induction of Carlos Beltran, and a special message from Terry Collins to Carlos.

In the wake of the Dodgers signing Kyle Tucker and the Mets signing Bo Bichette, Steve Adams and Anthony Franco both join Darragh McDonald to discuss whether it will be a new trend for stars to seek out short-term deals and whether a salary cap is the best way to solve baseball's parity issues.They also talk about how Bichette fits on the Mets' roster, whether the team will now trade for outfield help, and how the front office seemingly doesn't care as much about defense as they previously stated. Other topics include the deal that sent Nolan Arenado to the Diamondbacks, whether Brandon Donovan and JoJo Romero could still get traded this offseason, the Red Sox pivoting to Ranger Suarez after Alex Bregman signed elsewhere, and whether Boston will trade for an infielder. 

Sam and Joel react to the recent free agent signings of Alex Bregman, Kyle Tucker, and Bo Bichette; the Boston Red Sox seem to just be stockpiling pitchers; is a salary cap in MLB inevitable? ; the college football national championship happened; the Dominican Lidom World Series is set.

Trust in Cohen and Stearns collapsing, rock-bottom after missing Tucker, then suddenly hope again after the Bo Bichette pivot. The conversation turns into a real debate about what the Mets' actual plan is, why they keep leaning on short-term, big-money deals, and how hard it is to build a connection when every jersey feels like a one-year rental. Then it flips to the Yankees and Cody Bellinger, with New York leaking every detail of their “final offer” while fans wonder if it is all posturing until they actually pivot. A caller suggests a big swing like Framber Valdez, and the show breaks down why that does not really fit the Yankees' long-term pitching commitments, plus what a realistic pivot even looks like if Bellinger walks. Also in the mix: early lockout talk, what opt-outs could mean if labor chaos is coming, and why Mets fans might want to enjoy Bichette now without getting too attached.

Sean McVay's assistants are getting interviews and we knock around some ideas. Also, we toss around the idea of Mike McCarthy joining Rodgers in Pittsburgh, and think about what the Mets should do beyond Bichette. The show gets up close and personal when we discuss Peter Schwartz's intense sleep habits with him. There's a lot going on there.

KB is BACK and kicks things off recapping the NFL Divisional Round Playoff games and how AMAZING of a hate watch it was seeing the 49ers get their CHEEKS CLAPPED by the Seahawks. Then he discusses the Championship Game matchups and why this just feels like such a meh year for the NFL. Then he dives into the Bo Bichette news as Bichette duped the Phillies and signed with the Mets, which led to a massive overpay by the Phillies for J.T. Realmuto. Then he discusses the Flyers current state of existence and why Flyers Twitter is a WILD place and the 76ers current slog stretch. BOW BOW BOW BOW BOW THE 49ERS CHEEKS!!!

After missing out on Kyle Tucker, the Mets pivoted and signed Bo Bichette to a 3-year deal to man third base.

This week on the pod, we talk about all the big signings around the league and what the Reds did this past week. We breakdown the Tucker and Bichette signings and how it effects the Cincinnati Reds. We also talk about the real reason we're mad at the Dodgers and it's not what you'd expect it to be. Also, the Reds freed up some salary by trading Gavin Lux to the Rays and brought in Brock Burke, a left handed ground ball machine reliever. We also contemplate where they're going to spend that freed up cash. The show is brought to you by Cincy Light, the spirit of Cincinnati!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The duo reflect on the frustration of the Jays' Tucker pursuit, how Bichette's departure shook out, Bichette's tenure in Toronto and how the Jays 2026 roster compares to last season. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

Segment 1 – News and Notes1.    The Dodgers made a splash by signing Kyle Tucker to the largest AAV in history – 4 years and $240 million with opt-outs after 2027 and 2028.8.a.    A lot of people are upset about the dominance of the Dodgers.  “They are ruining baseball!”  What say you?b.    Were you surprised that Tucker signed a shorter deal but for more money?c.    The odd thing is that he's not even the best player on the team, maybe not even the top 3 players on the team.d.    I don't see any playing time loss for anyone with the exception of a potential delay in the arrival of Josue DePaula or Zyhir Hope.  Do you see anything?2.    The Mets were spurned by Tucker and pivoted to Bo Bichette, signing him to a massive three-year, $126 million deal with a unique opt-out clause.  He can opt out after each year, and if he does, the Mets have to pay him a $5 million bonus. a.    $42 million a year for Bichette?  Thoughts on the signing?b.    He'll likely play third base.  Who sits out of Baty or Vientos?c.    Also, I think Jett Williams needs to learn the outfield, plus, with the Mets not getting Tucker, Benge is still safe – for now.  Thoughts?3.    A small but interesting, three-way trade was pulled off by the Angles, Rays and Reds.  The Rays sent Josh Lowe to the Angels and Gavin Lux to the Rays, with the Reds acting as the intermediary. The Angels shipped RHP Chris Clark to Tampa Bay and LHP Brock Burke to Cincinnati.a.    Who's value goes up more?  Lowe, Lux, or neither?b.    Does this open a chance for Jacob Melton in Tampa?c.    Will Lux ever be more than an afterthought?Segment 2 – Third Base Rankings for the 2026 Season1.    How are you approaching this position for your upcoming drafts?2.    We will break down the top 15 to 20 in detail.  Then, go through 20 to 30 in less detail.  We will end by jumping around the remaining ranked players.3.    Which player not in the Top 10 has a chance to emerge there next season?4.    Which Top 10 player will not be there next season?5.    Give me a couple of sleepers6.    Give me one, maybe two guys you are just going to avoid drafting?

Mark Corbett and Mat Germain break down one of the most explosive stretches of MLB free agency in recent memory. With massive contracts, shocking signings, and widening payroll gaps, the duo digs into what these moves mean for competitive balance, player equity, and the future of Major League Baseball.From Kyle Tucker's blockbuster deal with the Dodgers to the Mets' smart pivot with Bo Bichette, this episode explores who's winning, who's losing, and why the system itself may be reaching a breaking point.MLB Free Agency ExplosionKyle Tucker signs a massive deal with the Dodgers, doubling Pete Alonso's AAVWhy the Dodgers felt desperate to get younger amid an aging coreThe true cost of star-heavy rosters and long-term riskAging Rosters & Hidden CracksDodgers' projected roster age concernsDefensive regression as the overlooked weaknessWhy pitching depth can't mask aging position players foreverMets Pivot SmartlyMets lose out on Tucker but land Bo BichetteHow Bichette improves infield versatility, offense, and defenseWhy Mat prefers Bichette over Tucker for the MetsBlue Jays at a CrossroadsLosing their best hitter and what it means for TorontoAging George Springer and rising lineup riskWhy Cody Bellinger could be their next critical moveCompetitive Balance & Salary Cap DebateTwo owners (Dodgers & Mets) changing the entire marketWhy 26 teams realistically can't compete for elite free agentsHow lack of parity hurts players, fans, and the league's valueFloor + ceiling vs. the current “luxury tax theater”Rank-and-File Players Left BehindHow top-10% contracts squeeze out middle-class MLB playersArbitration battles over minimal dollarsWhy a salary floor could help more players than a pure capThe Player Extension DilemmaElly De La Cruz and the risk of waiting until free agencyHow looming CBA changes impact long-term decisionsWill fear of a future cap push players to extend earlier?Trades & Team DirectionJosh Lowe to the Angels and the culture shift in AnaheimRays add Gavin Lux and improve defensively up the middleTampa Bay's growing AA/AAA pitching surplus and trade leverageBig Picture MLB QuestionsWhy fans don't care if the Dodgers win another titleComparisons to NFL parity and playoff accessWhy MLB risks becoming predictable - and boringNotable Moments“This is getting obscene.”  -  on payroll disparityThe idea of realigning divisions (Mets & Yankees together!)Mat's evolving Free Agent All-Star Team in real time“Live free and live hard.”  Rays-focused episode coming soonLike & subscribe to BaseballBiz On Deck.  You may also find BaseballBiz on Deck, on YouTube at iHeart Apple, Spotify, Amazon Music, & at www.baseballbizondeck.com Also you can find Mat at M-A-T-G-E-R-M-A-I-N dot B Sky social.

Brodes hosted on WIP Friday night 6-10pm reacting the Bo Bichette choosing the Mets over the Phillies.

A Football Friday is filled with a Mets roller coaster that starts sad, got happy with Bichette signing in show. Plus the Rangers warnt heir fans again.

The show comes to a screeching halt with legitimate breaking news as the Mets land Bo Bichette on a three-year, $126 million deal, and Evan immediately reminds everyone he called the pivot before it happened. Evan and Tiki react in real time to the signing, the massive AAV, the opt-out structure, and what this move says about how David Stearns is operating in the market. They break down where Bichette fits defensively, why third base appears to be the early plan, and how much offensive ground this actually recovers after losing Pete Alonso and Kyle Tucker. The guys debate the risk of one-year and two-year opt outs, the surprising draft pick cost, and whether this is a necessary concession in today's marketplace. Plus, what this move means for Philadelphia after reportedly agreeing to a long-term deal, how Toronto now pivots, why Cody Bellinger still does not make sense for the Mets, and whether this finally changes the tone of a chaotic Mets offseason. Live calls, instant reactions, and a full breakdown of how the roster and expectations shift after the biggest move yet.

The discussion opens with the moment Mets fans still argue about. Pete Alonso's defensive mistake that altered an entire season and still hangs over his departure. Now the reality is unavoidable. Pete Alonso is gone, and the New York Mets are moving in a completely new direction. That direction comes into focus with the addition of Bo Bichette, a bold pivot after missing out on Kyle Tucker. The guys break down why the Mets moved fast, how Bichette reshapes the lineup, and why this roster feels unfamiliar from top to bottom. The bullpen is just as different, with Edwin Díaz out and Devin Williams stepping into a high pressure closer role. From the lineup to the ninth inning, this is a new Mets identity, and everyone is about to find out if that change actually works.

The Mets sign Bo Bichette, and immediately the word panic starts flying. Evan explains why the money is not the panic at all. The Mets were ready to spend even more on Kyle Tucker, and short-term premium contracts are clearly part of the plan. The real concern is the opt-out. Giving up draft pick compensation for a player who could walk after one season feels less like free agency and more like a deadline rental, something David Stearns has historically avoided. The conversation turns into a deep debate on whether one year of elite talent is worth the risk, how past Mets contracts like Carlos Beltrán shape fan perspective, and why even a move everyone likes can still carry a subtle sense of urgency. The guys also dive into roster ripple effects, including what this means for Brett Baty, the Mets' trade flexibility, and how the upcoming CBA could impact Bichette's opt-out decision. Mets fans and Yankees fans both weigh in as New York's baseball balance of power continues to shift.

Evan and Tiki react in real time to the breaking news that the Mets have signed Bo Bichette, finally answering the biggest question of the offseason. After weeks of debating pivots, desperation, and whether the Mets would actually pull the trigger on a major bat, the move is real. They break down why the Mets chose Bichette, what it says about David Stearns and Steve Cohen, and how this signing fits into the bigger picture after missing out on Kyle Tucker. The guys debate where Bichette plays, how much the bat changes the lineup, and whether this move actually closes the gap with the league's elite. Plus, immediate fan reaction, instant expectations, and the real pressure this puts on the rest of the offseason.

On an emergency episode of The Mets Pod recorded live, Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo are joined by SNY's Steve Gelbs for real-time reaction to the news that the Mets signed free agent infielder Bo Bichette to a three-year contract. The guys break down the deal, and the quick pivot the Mets made after losing their pursuit of Kyle Tucker to the Dodgers, plus discuss the positives of Bichette, how he will fit the team, and what it all means for Brett Baty.  They also look ahead to what's next, including potential pitching additions and more outfield help.  Later, Connor and Joe go Down on the Farm to cover the official signing of top international prospect Wandy Asigen, and answer Mailbag questions about Lars Nootbaar, Austin Hays, and a possible trade match with the Minnesota Twins.

TSN Baseball Insider Steve Phillips joined OverDrive to discuss the Bo Bichette era concluding in Toronto and his signing with. the Mets, the Blue Jays' next steps after losing out on Bichette and Kyle Tucker, Cody Bellinger in the cards, targeting a closer and more.

Ben & Woods open the 9am hour with The Reindl Report and a couple of Paulie's top headlines of the morning, and we get interrupted with the breaking news that infielder Bo Bichette is signing with the New York Mets. Then at the bottom of the hour the guys spin the old Topic Wheel a couple of times and discuss any weekend plans before we get out of here on a Friday morning! Listen here!

Bo Bichette has agreed to a 3 year $126 million contract with the New York Mets. Why weren't the Red Sox in on a short term deal with Bichette? Where do they go from here? The Patriots need their pass rush to get to C.J. Stroud, while the Texans need defensive touchdowns and a big game from Stroud to come out on top.

The Philadelphia Flyers continue to progress during their rebuild as the season moves along. There are strengths and there are certainly weaknesses on this team. The week, the guys assess the Flyers' approach to coaching, the power play, offensive attack and more. Ryan Gilbert from BroadStreetHockey.com joined us this week for a deep dive into this team, its coaching, and the positives we're seeing this season. It was a fantastic conversation!But first, the guys had their Eagles season postmortem as a new offensive coordinator will be hired for the 2026 season. Plus, which free agents should stay, which should go? And the guys gave their Super Bowl team picks. (Approx. 5:35)From there, they got into a discussion about whether or not the Sixers could actually make it to the Eastern Conference Finals this season based off the Opposition Territory podcast discussion from this week. (Approx. 23:10)Then they talked about how the Phillies are serious about acquiring Bo Bichette and what that will mean for the team moving forward should it happen. (Approx. 30:55)The guys then got into some Listener Feedback about how Erik is now watching the Flyers. (Approx. 34:10)What they threw down on the Table this week was a great and in-depth conversation with Ryan Gilbert from Broad Street Hockey about the direction of this Flyers team as we're in mid-January. Assessing Rick Tocchet's coaching approach. What is the identity of this team? A deep discussion about Matvei Michkov's sophomore season. Positive aspects of this team we can cling onto. All of this and much more this week on the Table!
