Podcasts about catchers

D1Baseball's Mike Rooney on this week's Sunday Night Convos as he talks Working with Catchers with four college baseball assistant coaches.

Bernie takes a look at potential free agent candidates for the Cardinals. Bernie expresses his desire for the Cardinals to make a move for either Alejandro Kirk or Danny Jansen from Toronto. He also cautions against signing a catcher like Tucker Barnhart based on reputation as he notes how Cardinals pitchers like pitching to Andrew Knizner despite his poor defensive metrics.

In the second hour of tonight's Sports Open Line, Matt Pauley shares which catchers are catching the Cardinals' eye this offseason, and which shortstops are now free agents. Matt takes your calls to get your thoughts on who the Cardinals should pursue before Opening Day next year. Matt also analyzes Eli Drinkwitz's new contract extension, and is joined by senior NHL.com writer Dan Rosen to further discuss the Blues' seemingly-perpetual struggles. Sports Open Line with Matt Pauley airs weeknights 6-8pm on KMOX. Join the show by calling or texting (314) 436-7900 or by tweeting to Matt @MattPauleyOnAir.

But something strange lurks in the woods, about to ruin his plans.... After 30 years, Collins is ready to be done with small-town animal control. His replacement, Blair, is a Gen Z vet student who hates mansplaining; they don't get along. But on the eve of his retirement, Collins gets a call that changes everything. There's been a report of a vicious wild dog on the loose. Collins and Blair head to a remote family farm to check it out. But instead of finding one wayward mutt, they're attacked by an entire pack of bloodthirsty creatures. Are they animals? Aliens? Or something more sinister? Collins and Blair have never seen eye to eye, but they'll have to learn to work together if they want to survive the night. The future of Buck Lake depends on it. Catchers is a small-town horror tale with all the charm of a classic ‘80s creature-feature, updated for the modern era. Billy Gardell (Bob Hearts Abishola) stars as Collins alongside Herizen Guardiola (American Gods) as Blair. With hair-raising twists and a diverse cast of characters, Catchers has something to send shivers down every horror lover's spine.

The Baltimore Orioles claimed not one, but two catchers off of waivers from the Cincinnati Reds last week. Host Connor Newcomb breaks down the careers so far for Aramis Garcia and Mark Kolozsvary and tells you why each guy has a chance to be the backup catcher for Adley Rutschman in 2023. Then, Connor discusses why the Orioles chose to DFA Beau Sulser and Louis Head to make room for the two new catchers. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Elliot and Zach start the show with Breaking news regarding the Reds roster. Then they delve into the Bengals' loss to Baltimore and preview the game at New Orleans. They finish the show by recapping week 5 and by giving their gambling picks for week 6 of the NFL season.

On today's Farm Friday, we're checking in on the Oakland Athletics! Daniel Susac (#3) is one of many well-regarded catchers in this system, and he spent time in Single-A Stockton after the draft with TJ rehabee Gunner Hoglund (#10), who was moved from Toronto in the Matt Chapman deal. High-A Lansing, the Lugnuts, saw MLB's other Max Muncy (#6), this one an infielder from the 2021 MLB draft, spend time with the club. Double-A Midland features some good pitchers who had injuries and bad numbers this season in RHPs JT Ginn (#8) and Ryan Cusick (#13), who are both spending time in the Arizona Fall League to make up some innings. Triple-A Las Vegas has yet another well-regarded catcher in Tyler Soderstrom (#1), but he played more first base this season than catching and a decision needs to be made soon about his defensive home. He took throws from SS Zack Gelof (#4), who hits to all fields but had higher than ideal strikeouts due to chasing breaking stuff and is going to the AFL to work on it. MLB already saw some callups this year, namely C Shea Langeliers (#2) and LHP Ken Waldichuk (#5), as well as former prospect CF Cristian Pache, who may just never hit at the big league level.

Bernie previews the Kansas City Chiefs facing the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday Night Football as he expresses confidence in the Chiefs not only winning but covering. Bernie also talks about the future of the catcher's spot for the Cardinals and how they need to find a legitimate replacement for Yadier Molina instead of elevating Andrew Knizner and hoping for a cheap or internal supplement.

In a sense "predator catchers" could've been the title for the whole episode! New York Attorney General Tish James is after Donald Trump. She has moved forward with the case against him for financial fraud. Between that and the Mar-a-Lago raid, can he continue to be Teflon Don? Then there are the protests in Iran. In response to the state-sanctioned death of Mahsa Amini, there have been massive protests by women in Iran. And now the world is showing solidarity. The panel also talks about the vigilante predator catcher phenomenon. Is this a good thing? Does this bring justice to victims in underserved communities? Is this an extension of community policing? Or will this present more problems than solutions? Journalist/Communications Expert Jeanette Lenoir and Attorney Derrick Page join Jasper and Dr. Stewart this week.

Today's guest signed with the Tampa Bay Rays as a free agent in 2006. For 7 years he was a catcher in the Rays organization through as high as triple-A. He played his final season in 2014 with the Detroit Tigers organization, where he then retired to pursue his coaching career. After various different coaching positions over the years,  in 2019 he was brought on by the San Francisco Giants as their bullpen and catching coach, which is where he is currently working at the time of this recording. Welcome to the show, Craig Albernaz!

As a kid, radio producer Sima Ghadirzadeh spent her summers in one of the hottest places on earth — the desert city of Yazd, Iran. “Yazd was always to me this mysterious place that had miraculously escaped the process of modernization,” Ghadirzadeh said. Here, intricate wind-catching towers rise above the alleyways — they're boxy, geometric structures that take in cooler, less dusty air from high above the city and push it down into homes below.  An ab anbar or "water reservoir" with wind catchers (openings near the top of the towers) in the central desert city of Yazd, Iran. Credit: Diego Delso/CC BY-SA 4.0/Wikimedia Commons This 12th-century invention — known as badgir in Persian —  remained a reliable form of air-conditioning for Yazd residents for centuries. And as temperatures continue to rise around the world, this ancient way of staying cool has gained renewed attention for its emissions-free and cost-effective design. Wind catchers don't require electricity or mechanical help to push cold air into a home, just the physical structure of the tower — and the laws of nature. Cold air sinks. Hot air rises. Ghadirzadeh said she can remember as a child standing underneath one in her uncle's living room in Yazd. “Having been outside in the heat, and then suddenly, going inside and being right under the wind catcher and feeling the cool breeze on you, was so mysterious,” Ghadirzadeh said. Temperatures in Yazd can regularly reach 115 degrees Fahrenheit. But somehow, it was bearable, Ghadirzadeh said. She and her cousins spent their days exploring the city's shaded alleyways or in the basement. Evenings were spent on the rooftop under the stars. Mornings, back again in the thick-walled rooms and courtyards.Historians say wind catchers are at least 700 years old. Written records in travelers' diaries and poems reference the unique cooling structures. “From the 13th century, we have references to the wind catcher — by some estimates, they were in use in the 10th and 11th centuries,” said Naser Rabbat, director of the Aga Khan program for Islamic architecture at MIT. Most wind catchers only cooled the air by a few degrees, but the psychological impact was significant, Rabbat said. They soon appeared all over the medieval Muslim world, from the Persian Gulf to the seat of the Mamluk empire in Cairo, where they are called malqaf. In Iran, the wind catcher is a raised tower that usually opens on four sides because there's not a dominant wind direction, Rabat said. The ones in Cairo are “extremely simple in form,” usually with a slanted roof and a screen facing the direction of favorable wind, he added.Over time, wind catchers became symbols of wealth and success, growing increasingly elaborate. Homeowners would install intricate screens to keep out the birds. Water features and courtyard pools could bring the temperature down even more.  “They would even put water jars made out of clay underneath — that would cool the air further,” Rabbat said. “Or, you can put a wet cloth and allow the breeze to filter through, and carry humidity.” Many of the older techniques that kept life comfortable in the Persian Gulf fell out of favor after World War II, said New York and Beirut-based architect Ziad Jamaleddine. The leaders of these countries commissioned European architects to build cities in their image. “Partially demolishing or totally erasing the historic urban and dense fabric,” Jamaleddine said. Those shaded walkways, created by overhanging buildings and angled streets so beloved in historic cities like Yazd, were no longer considered desirable. “What they did is they substituted it with the gridded urban fabric city we are very familiar with today. Which perhaps, made sense in the cold climate of western Europe,” Jamaleddine said. But in a place like Kuwait or Abu Dhabi, mass quantities of cool air are necessary to make this type of urban planning comfortable. Attempts to re-create wind catchers occurred during the oil crisis of the 1970s and 1980s in cities like Doha, where the Qatar University campus incorporates several equally distributed wind towers. But these projects became less common when oil prices returned to normal.  Qatar University campus features new wind catcher design built into the architecture.  Credit: Sky2105, CC BY-SA 3.0/Wikimedia Commons Wind catchers are not easy to replicate without a deep understanding of the landscape and environment, Jamaleddine said. “It's closely related to the way people live, and how they inhabit a space. It can't simply be copied.”  Architects call this the principle of “passive solar design.” Today, air conditioners and fans make up more than 10% of global electricity use, according to the International Energy Agency. The air conditioners are leaking refrigerant into the atmosphere, which acts as a greenhouse gas. And they no longer function when the power goes out — as seen this summer during extreme heat waves across the world. Architect Sue Roaf thinks it's "almost criminal" to build structures that continue to rely on air-conditioning, knowing its impact on the climate. Roaf focuses on climate-adaptive building and chose to build her home using the same principles of ventilation and insulation that she learned while studying the wind catchers of Yazd. Strategically placed windows and thick, cave-like walls keep Roaf's home at a cool 69 degrees Fahrenheit without air-conditioning, even during Britain's historic heat wave this summer.“I have a vertical roof up the center of the house, and there's a roof light that I open up,” Roaf said. “So, you get the stack effect, drawing cooler air or warmer air through the house.”It's a passion project that demonstrates what's possible for building in a warming world. “The old thinking was more romantic – let us learn from the ancients,” Rabbat said. “The new thinking is [that] we have much more calibratable technology. Why don't we use it to harvest much more of the energy we can collect?” For example, mechanical pumps could spray vapor inside, cooling the air the same way the ceramic jugs of water once worked under the wind catchers of Yazd, he said. Today, Yazd is a bustling city full of motorcycles and high-rise buildings. But video editor Mohamed Bandekhoda said he likes the older parts best. “Whenever I'm sad or depressed, I go for a walk in the Old City,” he said. “The breeze in the alleys heals you.” Wind catchers dot the beautiful Yazd skyline, Bandekhoda said, but he's only seen ones that are restored and open for tourists. He's never been inside a home with one in use. “My grandmother's house, for example, has one — but no one knows where to open it,” Bandekhoda said. For now, it remains in wait, ready to inspire the next generation of climate-conscious architects.

This 12th-century invention was a reliable form of air-conditioning in Iran for centuries. And as temperatures continue to rise around the world, this ancient way of staying cool has gained renewed attention for its emissions-free and cost-effective design.

The New Orleans Saints have built a defense that should be able to content with the Falcons' impressive pass-catching group. The area where Atlanta is the strongest will be downfield, and Marshon Lattimore, Paulson Adebo, Tyrann Mathieu and Marcus Maye will be tasked with stopping them. Deamrio Davis and Pete Werner must be stout over the middle as well. The good news for New Orleans is that they seem ready to go. Michael Thomas, James Hurst, Adebo, and Werner will all headline practice reports this week. Their health and participation could change the fabric of Sunday's matchup in Atlanta.

On today's Mailbag Monday, we're taking your questions!  First, about the status of the Rookie of the Year races: Has Atlanta Braves starter Spencer Strider already locked up the NL race over Braves outfielder Michael Harris? What about the AL, where it's down to Seattle Mariner Julio Rodriguez vs Baltimore Oriole Adley Rutschman?  Next, Alexander is asking about catchers in California; specifically, why do the Oakland Athletics have so darn many of them?

It's a Farm Friday, this one about the World Series-contending Toronto Blue Jays. We start off with the two farthest affiliates from the parent club: Single-A Dunedin, where SS/2B Adrian Pinto and RHP Irv Carter are tearing it up. (2022 draftees SS John Kasevich and 2B Cade Doughty just got here too!) and High-A Vancouver, where OF Gabriel Martinez, RHP Dahian Santas, and SS Alex DeJesus are developing. The Double-A affiliate is the New Hampshire Fisher Cats, and they're chock full of top ten talent. LHP Ricky Tiedemann! SS/3B Orelvis Martinez! RHP Yosver Zulueta (which I probably still haven't pronounced right)! And the Buffalo Bisons, Triple-A affiliate, have the big prize in #1 prospect catcher Gabriel Moreno.

To some paedophile catchers like Chris Hansen are online superheroes, protecting children and putting predators behind bars. To others they're vigilantes who enforce their own form of justice while putting people in danger. But do they have a place in the system? This week Hannah and Suruthi are jumping into the murky waters of self styled sting operations, hidden cameras, and entrapment to find out.

Mitch Tischler, Pete Hailey and Ethan Cadeaux are in charge of this Washington Football Talk, as JP Finlay is spending the weekend in Boston for a wedding. Mitch, Pete and Ethan were all at FedEx Field for the Commanders' stadium practice, and they're more than happy to tell you all about what went down. As they do that, they debate whether Carson Wentz's inconsistencies with his wideouts is worth worrying about at this point, discuss Terry McLaurin's presser and chat about what bottom-of-the-depth-chart receivers are doing their best to stick on the roster. If you like podcasts where Mitch picks out a lineman who's impressing him in the trenches and Pete's taste in chicken is questioned, then this is the episode for you.
