Nimmo has been fine, better than his numbers show, but Gore has been up and down and in some fans' crosshairs. We will look back at all of the Rangers' offseason moves, but take a deeper look at Gore as he prepares to face Kansas City on Tuesday night.

Take advantage of our Playoff Diehard Sale and join our community today! https://alldlls.com/stars-playoff-offer-youtube   An ALLCITY Network Production   The Texas Rangers' season hit a new low Monday night. They were no-hit by the rival Houston Astros, who used three pitchers for the third no-no against the Rangers in club history. Tatsuya Imai started the game with two walks, but fixed things quickly. The Rangers didn't strike out much, but they also didn't have much hard contact. The question against is how do they fix the offense. Manager Skip Schumaker talked about messaging and game planning. Brandon Nimmo talked about execution. Sounds like a lot of work with less than a full arsenal of players to do it.   SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/@DLLS_Sports   ALL THINGS DLLS:   WEBSITE: https://store.allcitynetwork.com/collections/dlls-locker   BUY MERCH: http://DLLSLocker.com   FOLLOW ON SOCIAL: Twitter: @DLLS_Sports Instagram: @DLLS_Sports   Become a DLLS Diehard and get access to premium content, our Discord channel, discounts on merch, and a free shirt!

Dylan Crews is officially back in the majors with Washington, forcing fantasy managers to weigh if he is worth a potential add. Joe Bond breaks down the fantasy impact of the latest roster shuffles, daily Buy/Sell/Drops, and a Chris Sale FanDuel Bet of the Day. The Nationals shake up their roster by bringing Dylan Crews back to the big leagues, while teammate James Wood steals the show with an inside-the-park grand slam. Meanwhile, Ryan Jeffers is slated to miss 6-to-8 weeks with a severe strain, and the Astros place Lance McCullers Jr. back on the IL. Jackson Holliday slides down to seventh in his season debut, while Gerrit Cole and Corbin Burnes lock in key weekend pitching milestones. Bo Bichette, Freddie Freeman, and Travis Bazzana lead a stacked group of daily studs. On the flip side, Christian Yelich and prospect Jac Caglianone land firmly in the dud column after frustrating performances at the dish. In this week's trading window, we look to buy low on elite talent like Fernando Tatis Jr. and Brandon Nimmo while cashing out high on Bryson Stott.

The offense started early, with two runs in the first and three in the second. Brandon Nimmo, Ezequiel Duran and Joc Pederson had big nights. Rocker worked 7 2/3 innings, though not as the starter.

You're probably spending too much on travel baseball for the wrong reasons — and the people telling you it's necessary are the ones who benefit when you do. MLB agent Matt Hannaford answers three listener questions that hit the same nerve every travel ball parent shares: how much is too much, when does specialization actually make sense, and what do you do when a coach is treating your kid unfairly.    WHAT YOU'LL LEARN - Why no college coach or pro scout is watching your 11-year-old play — and what that means for where to spend your money - The hierarchy most travel ball families have backwards: exposure, competition, development — and why flipping it is the only path that actually works - When sport specialization makes sense (and the warning sign that it's happening too early) - The Tommy John surgery reality nobody tells you about — and why a 13-year-old with a torn UCL has a problem his parents don't understand yet - How to talk to a youth coach about playing time without your kid paying the price   Matt opens with a question from Steve, a parent who just paid $3,200 for summer travel ball for his 11-year-old son and is staring down another $7,000 of expenses this year. Matt's answer reframes the entire spending conversation. No college coach is scouting 11-year-olds. No pro scout is scouting 11-year-olds. The only people scouting 11-year-olds are other travel ball programs trying to recruit your kid into the next paid tier. From there, Matt walks through the development-first hierarchy and explains why it has to come before competition and exposure, not after. He uses Brandon Nimmo as a real example — a first-round MLB draft pick who came out of Wyoming and barely attended any showcase events in high school. The lesson: if your son is good enough, they will find him. The events most parents are told they have to attend are not the gatekeepers parents think they are. Rick's question follows: his 10-year-old's travel coach is telling the family to drop soccer and focus on baseball year-round. Matt pulls from his own multi-sport background — hockey, baseball, basketball, football — and from the Aspen Institute research on youth burnout to explain why early specialization is being sold to families who do not need it. He shares a story from his own client base: a travel ball coach whose player tore his UCL after a parent ignored a rest warning and took the kid to play in another team's tournament. The doctor's recommendation: put baseball down for six years. The final question comes from Sean, whose son was moved to batting ninth after one fielding error — despite hitting .380. Matt names what is actually happening here. Coaches do not move hitters down for a defensive error. That is a coach with an axe to grind, not a coaching decision. He gives parents and high school players a step-by-step framework for the conversation: do not complain about lineup spot, ask what specifically the coach needs to see for trust to be earned back, and hold the coach accountable to his own answer. The episode covers college recruiting timing, the WWBA tournament in Atlanta, Perfect Game events in Jupiter, and what USA Baseball selection actually looks like.   ABOUT THE SHOW  Matt Hannaford is an MLB agent with 26 years representing Major League Baseball players. He gives you the insider playbook on travel baseball, college recruiting, the transfer portal, and MLB Draft decisions so you can navigate the system with confidence and stop being sold to.   CONNECT WITH MATT  Alignd Sports Agency: https://www.aligndsports.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mfhannaford/   #TravelBaseball #YouthSports #MLBDraft #BaseballParent

Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber react to the Mets calling up A.J. Ewing and use it as a jumping off point for a bigger question about desperation in New York baseball. With the Mets struggling and the Giants reportedly looking to move expensive contracts, the conversation turns to whether Rafael Devers or Matt Chapman should interest either the Mets or Yankees. The strongest debate centers on Devers, whose bat could transform the Yankees lineup but whose contract, defense, and long term fit create real concerns. The Mets side feels even more complicated, as taking on another massive deal would clash with their recent approach to Brandon Nimmo and Pete Alonso, making any move for Devers feel difficult to justify.

Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber react to another ugly Mets loss and dig into why this season feels like it is spiraling beyond just a bad offseason. From David Stearns' roster construction to failed player development and pitching problems, the conversation lays out why the Mets' issues may run much deeper than fans want to admit. They also debate whether bringing back familiar faces like Pete Alonso and Brandon Nimmo would have truly changed the Mets' outlook, explore a wild Francisco Lindor for Bryce Harper trade idea, and compare the future of Evan's Mets, Jets and Nets. Plus, the guys touch on the Yankees' loss, a key injury concern, and a surprisingly catchy new Mets misery anthem.

Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber break down another brutal Mets loss and ask whether this team's problems go even deeper than David Stearns' failed offseason. Evan argues that even bringing back familiar faces like Pete Alonso and Brandon Nimmo may not have saved the Mets, because the pitching, player development and young core have all collapsed at once. The conversation turns to the Mets' bleak outlook, their uncertain future compared to Evan's other favorite teams, and a stunning hypothetical trade with the Phillies. With both teams struggling, Evan and Tiki debate whether Francisco Lindor for Bryce Harper could ever make baseball sense, why both contracts make the idea at least worth discussing, and why the players themselves might ultimately shut it down.

The crew locks in their favorite hit streak plays, backing the league's hottest hitters to stay on fire. Pat rolls with Brandon Nimmo (4-game streak), Brad backs Josh Bell (5-game streak), Brando taps Corey Seager, and Monty rides the red-hot Trevor Larnach on an 11-game heater. Plus, guest PJ keeps it rolling with Bo Bichette and his 7-game streak.

The Texas Rangers are hovering just above .500 early in the 2026 season, showing flashes of strong play but struggling to find consistency. Despite competitive games and signs of resilience, the team continues to ride a wave of ups and downs on both sides of the ball.   New additions like Brandon Nimmo and Jake Burger have provided encouraging production, while hitters such as Corey Seager and Wyatt Langford are still working through slow starts despite strong underlying metrics.   On the pitching side, the rotation has largely held steady, but bullpen questions remain with arms like Chris Martin and Robert Garcia trying to find consistency. As the Rangers continue adjusting their offensive approach and lineup roles, the early season sample raises a key question: is this just normal variance, or something more concerning?

The Texas Rangers are 15 games into the 2026 season and sitting in first place, but the early results come with a mix of optimism and concern. New leadoff hitter Brandon Nimmo has been outstanding, posting elite on-base numbers and bringing stability to the top of the lineup after the departure of Marcus Semien. On the pitching side, Jacob deGrom continues to show dominant stuff despite minor health concerns, while Mackenzie Gore is emerging as a key addition early in the season. Young arms like Kumar Rocker and Jack Leiter have flashed upside but are still working toward consistency. Meanwhile, stars like Corey Seager are off to slower starts, raising questions about when early-season trends become real concerns. With lineup decisions, pitching usage, and roster adjustments all in play, this is a full breakdown of what's sustainable and what could change for Texas moving forward.

Check out Fran Duffy's 2026 Diehard Draft Guide! https://alldlls.com/draftguide26/   The Texas Rangers had a very good weekend, erasing their Opening Day loss on March 26 to win back-to-back games March 28 and March 29 to win the season-opening series at Philadelphia. Pitching was the focus, as Jacob deGrom was scratched from his first start of 2026. Jacob Latz stepped in an tossed four scoreless innings as the Rangers took a 3-0 lead into the ninth. Robert Garcia and Chris Martin couldn't close out the game, in part because of Jake Burger error, but the Rangers prevailed 5-4 in 10 innings. MacKenzie Gore made his Rangers debut in the finale and was terrific. He didn't allow a hit until the sixth inning and exited after allowing two runs. The Rangers' star on offense was Andrew McCutchen, though Burger, Corey Seager and Brandon Nimmo all homered in the series.   #baseball #texas #rangers #coreyseager #andrewmccutchen #brandonnimmo   An ALLCITY Network Production   SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/@DLLS_Sports   ALL THINGS DLLS:   WEBSITE: https://store.allcitynetwork.com/collections/dlls-locker   BUY MERCH: http://DLLSLocker.com   FOLLOW ON SOCIAL: Twitter: @DLLS_Sports Instagram: @DLLS_Sports   Become a DLLS Diehard and get access to premium content, our Discord channel, discounts on merch, and a free shirt!

The Texas Rangers offense is under the spotlight after a disappointing 2025 season that saw the team rank near the bottom of MLB in key categories like batting average, on-base percentage, and OPS. Major changes followed, including the departures of Marcus Semien, Adolis García, and Jonah Heim. New additions like Brandon Nimmo, Andrew McCutchen, and Danny Jansen are expected to help reshape the lineup, while core players such as Corey Seager, Wyatt Langford, and Josh Jung must take a step forward.

Check out Fran Duffy's 2026 Diehard Draft Guide! https://alldlls.com/draftguide26/ It was going to happen eventually — Jacob deGrom and Brandon Nimmo were going to play this spring for the Texas Rangers. The debuts arrived Wednesday against Team Brazil. The Rangers started deGrom on the mound after his All-Star season, and Nimmo was the leadoff man and right fielder behind his former Mets teammate. For deGrom, he allowed a solo home run and two other hits in two innings, striking out three, and Nimmo went 1 for 2 with a single and a walk. Both felt fine afterward and said they will be ready to go on Opening Day, March 26 against the Phillies.  0:00 - Intro 1:04 - Camp rundown and reaction to the run-rule victory over Brazil 19:18 - deGrom and Nimmo made their debuts today 32:21 - Battle for bench roles 47:09 - Batting cleanup - news and notes around baseball An ALLCITY Network Production SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/@DLLS_Sports ALL THINGS DLLS:  WEBSITE: https://store.allcitynetwork.com/collections/dlls-locker BUY MERCH:  http://DLLSLocker.com  FOLLOW ON SOCIAL:  Twitter: @DLLS_Sports Instagram: @DLLS_Sports Become a DLLS Diehard and get access to premium content, our Discord channel, discounts on merch, and a free shirt!

Sal Licata joins Locked Up Sports for a must-watch conversation covering his departure from WFAN, the future of the Mets under Carlos Mendoza, and whether the Knicks' championship window is closing. Sal opens up about the WFAN decision, saying he doesn't agree with it but respects it — and confirms he will not be returning. We dive deep into the Mets, where Sal makes it clear: if the team misses the playoffs, Carlos Mendoza will be fired. He also tells fans to move on from Pete Alonso and Brandon Nimmo, praises David Stearns for breaking up a losing core, and predicts a bounce-back season from Francisco Alvarez. Sal also believes the addition of Marcus Semien was a strong move to improve the lineup. On the Knicks side, Sal says if they don't win a championship this year, it may be time to break up the core. This is a bold, honest, unfiltered NY sports conversation. #NYMets #NewYorkMets #WFAN #Knicks #NBA #SalLicata #LockedUpSports

The replacements of Bo Bichette, Marcus Semien, Jorge Polanco, Luis Robert Jr. and Freddy Peralta are here. The question isn't if we like what David Stearns did.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 42: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: Trump is drowning. Trump’s presidency is DROWNING. Yesterday, it was Republicans forcing a vote to extend Obamacare subsidies. Yesterday, 38 PERCENT approval in the Marist poll. Monday, his Rob Reiner tweet that appalled even the worst of MAGA. Tuesday, Susie Wiles. Friday, the Epstein Files, proving: no, history doesn’t repeat itself but yes, sometimes it LITERALLY rhymes. The Venezuela Wag-The-Dog episode collapsed before it started. It's about Narco-terrorism, whatever the eff that is? Oil? Stuff they stole? Nuh uh. For the first but not the last time we turn to Susie Wiles for the, uh, well, it’s a strange word to use about the Trump administration but here it is: TRUTH. "He wants to keep on blowing boats up until [president Nicolás] Maduro cries uncle. And people way smarter than me on that say that he will." She also single-handedly ended the just-forming prosecution of Jack Smith, and the vowed prosecution of Anthony Fauci, and the already-moribund prosecutions of James Comey and Letitia James and Adam Schiff and and and…All those cases will be thrown out of court. All of them. Because Susie Wiles is on tape saying quote “I don’t think he wakes up thinking about retribution but when there’s an opportunity he will go for it.” About Comey, quote: “I mean, people could think it does look vindictive. I can’t tell you why you shouldn’t think that.” Trump’s chief of staff. Confirming it’s retribution. And retribution means selective prosecution and selective prosecution is illegal and you not only get the case thrown out, if you’ve had to defend yourself or your reputation has been hurt, you can sue the government. And it’s on TAPE. So why did she say it? Why did she think she could get away with it? Because inside the White House even the Chief of Staff knows Trump is drowning. And they are beginning to distance themselves from him. B-Block (27:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Laura Ingraham doesn't know Niagara Falls is in Ontario or Ontario is in Canada or that Premier Doug Ford isn't an American. I make bad choices in Exes. And these MAGA idiots just cannot see anything in the world any more without trying to force it into their brain-dead templates: it MUST be political and it MUST be an attack on Trump. New York City councilwoman Vickie Paladino "knows" the terrible shooting was an attack on Republicans at Brown University, and the moronic troll "Cat Turd" is sure they're wiping the shooter's social media history clean (which is an idea he should execute). C-Block (37:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: I'm off by only four days from the exact anniversary, but it is now 42 years since I first met and interviewed Trump and I know most of us who knew him before knew he was nuts, but I must give myself credit. An hour after that meeting I was asking a colleague "what the eff is wrong with THAT guy?"See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's another Coca Thursday. This one is definitely better than last week. We start with the Mets and the loss of Pete Alonso, Edwin Diaz, and Brandon Nimmo. Whose fault is it? What in the world is happening at Michigan? It's time for them to start over. Clear house. Is Notre Dame going to complain forever? And the Oklahoma City Thunder are so good, but could you name more than three players on the team? Shoutout Sam Presti! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Today's word of the day is ‘profit' as in money as in revenue as in checks as in balances as in business as in the New York Yankees. Hall Steinbrenner, the owner of the Yankees, met the media on Monday, and quite a lot to say. He wants the payroll to come down. He wants people to stop thinking the Yankees always make money. He wants you all to know that competitive balance is still here despite what the Dodgers are doing. (19:30) What are the Pirates and the Marlins doing this offseason? Spending money? Or just pretending to spend money? (37:00) Review: Morning Show Season 4. (40:30) NPPOD. (44:00) David Stearns met the media after trading away Brandon Nimmo. He said the team could not just run it back. Something needed to change. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Today's word of the day is ‘scenery' as in change of scenery as in Mets as Rangers as in Brandon Nimmo as in Marcus Semien. We have a one for one trade! Nimmo, after 14 years within the Mets organization, has been traded to the Mets. Marcus Semien, who won a World Series in 2023 with the Rangers, heads to the Mets to play 2nd base. (10:45) Adam Ottavino went scorched earth on the Mets and Carlos Mendoza. Why? What was the reason for this? (20:40) Shedeur Sanders got the win in his starting debut. First Browns QB in 30 years to pick up a win in his first game. Will he start next week? (31:30) The New York Football Giants are bad. Another game, another blown double-digit lead. Nice. But then after the game injured start WR Malik Nabers tweeted, and deleted, some damning comments about the coaching staff. (39:45) Review: Stiller and Meara - Nothing is Lost. (42:20) NPPOD. (46:30) The 49ers have voided all the guarantees next season for Brandon Aiyuk. $26 million down the drain. Wow. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
