Lima and Daryl Ruiter pivot from previewing Todd Monken's blunt, no-filter coaching style in Browns training camp to breaking down why the Cavs' offseason has stalled, explaining that the new CBA's second apron makes signing Jonathan Kuminga to the money he wants nearly impossible without a sign-and-trade. They debate whether trading away Max Strus, whom Lima compares to a young Matthew Dellavedova and Anderson Varejao, is worth it to get a needed athletic upgrade, while acknowledging the roster desperately lacks explosiveness and defensive versatility. The two also work through their complicated feelings on Donovan Mitchell's max contract, agreeing he's a needed scorer but not a true number one, and lean on the idea that 41-year-old LeBron and 37-year-old James Harden wouldn't have solved the team's youth and athleticism problem anyway.

Lima and Daryl examine LeBron James' decision to sign with the Philadelphia 76ers and why the fit might turn into a disaster for the veteran superstar. They also preview Browns training camp in Berea, focusing on new offensive coordinator Todd Monken's intense coaching style. Finally, they discuss the Cavaliers' roster construction challenges under the new CBA and recent social media posts from current players. 02:10 - LeBron's Philadelphia Move 05:54 - LeBron's Knicks Plan A 09:14 - Cleveland's Post-LeBron Future 16:08 - Browns Training Camp Preview 19:25 - Todd Monken's Coaching Style 24:55 - Cavs' Offseason Trade Rumors 34:31 - Mocking Cavs Reunion Photos 39:45 - Comparing Altman and Gansey

Hall of Fame Cardinals manager Whitey Herzog gets stuck in the Yankees system—and the Army—leading to a discussion of social responsibility when it comes to risking the lives of citizen-soldiers (whether Herzog or Ted Williams in the Korean War years or something closer to the present day). Then we visit the win-or-go-home American League playoff game between the Red Sox and the Indians, a contest famously mishandled by Joe McCarthy, another future Hall of Famer. What went into his thinking that day, and are the legends of pitchers ducking the job true? With stops along the way at an eight-man rotation, the A's 1929 surprise starter, virus versus host, and so much more! The Infinite Inning is a journey to the past to understand the present using baseball as our time machine. America's brighter mirror, baseball reflects, anticipates, and even mocks the stories we tell ourselves about our world today. Baseball Prospectus's Steven Goldman shares his obsessions: history from inside and outside of the game, politics, stats, and Casey Stengel quotations. Along the way, we'll try to solve the puzzle that is the Infinite Inning: How do you find the joy in life when you can't get anybody out? Short vibraphone melody (loop) by xkeril

Is the NBA overreacting to the second apron? Wes Goldberg argues that the loudest criticism of the league's new Collective Bargaining Agreement is missing the bigger picture. He breaks down why recent salary dumps by the Thunder, Celtics and Knicks don't prove the system is broken, explains what the players actually gained in the latest CBA, and makes the case that the one change everyone avoids discussing—reducing the number of regular-season games—is the real solution to many of the NBA's biggest problems. Then Wes reacts to the latest on LeBron James' prolonged free agency, explaining why he believes basketball may not be the biggest factor delaying a decision and why Miami still makes the most sense. Finally, he unveils a radical idea for reimagining the NBA season using a World Cup-inspired format featuring stages, Swiss-system scheduling and fewer regular-season games to make every matchup matter. 00:00 Intro 00:59 Truth about Second Apron 18:26 LeBron's Decision Delay 27:50 The NBA Like the World Cup RealGM Radio is your top spot for the best weekly NBA coverage.

The 96th edition of the MLB All-Star Game is all wrapped up in Philadelphia after the American League defeated the National League, 4-0. With New York Yankees outfielder Cody Bellinger taking home the game's MVP award, the AL continued its dominance over the Senior Circuit with its 11th win in the past 13 matchups. On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman give their thoughts on the aftermath of the game, including why the Chicago White Sox's Miguel Vargas should have gotten some consideration for the MVP award and why the National League continues to struggle in this exhibition.

Later in the show, Jake and Jordan discuss the press conference held with MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred and MLBPA leader Bruce Meyer, as the two sides discuss their current positions in the CBA negotiations. They then try to figure out where to put the Boston Red Sox in the latest power rankings following their hot streak before breaking down some surprising Miami Marlins roster news.   1:41 - The Opener: All-Star Game reaction 21:36 - Cody Bellinger wins MVP 25:22 - We Need to Talk About: All-Star theatrics 40:23 - All-Star Week in Philly wrap-up 47:14 - Around the League: CBA update 53:55 - Red Sox power rankings 58:18 - Rintaro Sasaki signs with Marlins Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

Daniele Franceschi and Zack Bodenstein kick off Wednesday morning with thoughts on last night's MLB All-Star Game! They discuss how the game translated as a fan watching from home, Dylan Cease's perfect first inning striking out the side, and Ernie Clement's defensive gem to rob Andy Pages of a hit.

Just hours after Donovan Mitchell signed his extension, national NBA media already started calling it a bad contract, exactly as Anthony predicted weeks earlier. Ken pushes back hard, arguing that almost every max contract for a non top-five player gets labeled bad in today's NBA and that the Cavs had no real alternative given what the Jarrett Allen and Jalen Brown trades suggest they'd get in return. Anthony and Ken agree the new CBA is forcing every team into this same bind, but they maintain Mitchell remains a top-tier player whose playoff heroics get unfairly compared to LeBron and Kyrie's career-best moments rather than a fair baseline. They close by teasing Jason Lloyd's take on where LeBron might land next and whether that's the same answer as where he legacy-wise should go.

The main crew is back — Grant, John Browner and Beav — for a loaded night. The guys open on the World Cup, where Argentina erased a two-goal Egypt lead in stunning fashion (Messi doing Messi things) and a VAR overturn had everyone yelling "rigged." Then it's deep into Clippers offseason chaos: the Kawhi, Brandon Ingram and Walker Kessler deals still aren't official, the CBA apron is making everything a nightmare to track, and the panel goes to war over whether a $116M swing for Peyton Watson makes any sense — or whether Lawrence Frank is just doing stuff to do stuff. Should they simply re-sign Bennedict Mathurin and develop the No. 5 pick instead? In the post-show, the crew relitigates the SGA regret and closes with a full LeBron James free-agency breakdown: Denver, Golden State, or Philly? New episodes drop nightly.

The first wave of the NBA offseason is complete, and Wes Goldberg has some strong opinions. Before welcoming Bobby Manning of CLNS, Wes runs through the moves he feels most confident about—including the Clippers' franchise reset, Miami's blockbuster trade for Giannis Antetokounmpo, Charlotte's decision to move on from LaMelo Ball, and why Phoenix's trade for Miles Bridges leaves more questions than answers. He also dives into the moves he's still wrestling with, including Ja Morant's fit in Portland, the Lakers' massive investment in Walker Kessler, and whether Philadelphia's acquisition of Jaylen Brown will age well.  Then Bobby Manning joins the show to unpack Brad Stevens' explanation for trading Brown, discussing the impact of the new CBA, Boston's financial reality, whether the Celtics waited too long to pivot, and where the franchise goes from here. Finally, Wes ranks LeBron James' reported landing spots and reveals the destination he believes gives LeBron the best chance to chase one more championship.   RealGM Radio is your top spot for the best weekly NBA coverage.

Ken Carman and Anthony Lima analyze reports regarding LeBron James' free agency and the possibility of a return to the Cleveland Cavaliers. They also tackle a controversial NFL ranking that places the Browns' roster 31st in the league and discuss how the new CBA impacted the Jalen Brown trade. 02:15 - LeBron James Free Agency Reports 06:05 - Ric Bucher's NBA Insights 09:25 - Evaluating Potential Cavaliers Lineups 13:35 - Caller Joe on LeBron's Legacy 19:30 - Browns 31st in NFL Lineups 24:50 - Todd Monken and Andrew Barry 33:20 - Team USA and Jalen Brown Trade

Ken and Anthony rip Americans who publicly rooted for Belgium over Team USA, tying the backlash to political comments and arguing sports shouldn't get caught up in polarization, with John chiming in about his own path from conservative talk radio into sports for that exact reason. The conversation pivots to Brad Stevens defending the Celtics' decision to trade Jaylen Brown to the Sixers, with Ken taking a victory lap for correctly predicting it as a win for Boston given the punishing new NBA cap rules around paying two max players. John, a Philly native, and Ken spar over whether the Sixers' front office can be trusted to make the deal work. The segment closes with Ken questioning whether the new CBA effectively fleeced the Cavs on their Donovan Mitchell trade and whether a Mitchell trade return would even be worth pursuing now.

Brian looks at the ripple effect of the Jaylen Brown trade, why the front office was ready to move on from him, and which Celtics could benefit from extra minutes next season (0:00). Then, Brian chats with The Ringer's Michael Pina about the trade, Bill Chisholm's defensiveness during the Celtics' press conference on Monday, how the CBA motivated the team to make the move, and more (28:30).

Ken and Anthony break down the Guardians' four-game split with the White Sox, praising Brayan Rocchio's walk-off homer and the overall entertainment value of the series despite dropping the final two games. They note Tanner Bibee's recent home-run struggles and touch on Jose Ramirez and Angel Martinez getting valuable at-bats back as the team heads into a crucial stretch, while wondering if looming CBA uncertainty is making the front office more conservative than usual. The conversation shifts to LeBron James, with both hosts speculating whether an announcement could come around the July 11th anniversary of his 2014 return, though they doubt it happens on a night dominated by the USA-Belgium World Cup match. Ken closes the show noting that despite loud anti-LeBron voices online, he didn't encounter a single skeptic in person over the weekend.

Bobby and Alex discuss the debate over the word “analytics” that's raging across the basketball internet, observing how eerily similar it is to the one that has poisoned baseball discourse over the last decade. Then, they make an exciting announcement about a new series of episodes called the Tipping Pitches: The Audit, where they'll be conducting deep dives into all 30 MLB teams' publicly available finances, spending, and more in an effort to set a level playing field for future labor discussions as the CBA expires. Next, they dig into the latest round of economic proposals from MLB and the MLBPA, including a radical max contract proposal from the owners that would fundamentally alter the existence of free agency in MLB, before discussing the PR blitz that the MLB side is building to try and win over public opinion.Finally, in honor of Bobby's trip to Camden Yards, they conduct a tiered ranking of the MLB stadiums that they've attended.Links:Tipping Pitches Rockies Meetup Interest Form⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join the Tipping Pitches Patreon ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tipping Pitches merchandise ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Call the Tipping Pitches voicemail: 785-422-5881Tipping Pitches features original music from Steve Sladkowski of PUP.
