After the free-agency frenzy that saw Kyle Tucker shockingly go to the Los Angeles Dodgers, Bo Bichette signing with the New York Mets and Cody Bellinger opting to run it back with the New York Yankees, teams are starting to look more and more set for the 2026 season. However, there is still plenty of time for teams to do some last-minute shopping to bulk up before Opening Day.On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman make their choices for the one thing that every team needs from now until Game One of the season. Could the Dodgers push all of their chips in to go for a three-peat and trade for Tarik Skubal? Will the Yankees have a resolution on what to do with Jasson Domínguez amid their crowded outfield? Who could the Mets trade away from their rotation after acquiring Freddy Peralta?Later, Jordan and Jake react to the breaking Minnesota Twins news after they parted ways with President of Baseball Operations Derek Falvey at this point in the offseason. They then make their picks for this week's The Good, The Bad and the Uggla, which includes Alex Honnold maybe taking a shot at Garrett Crochet and the history that landed Aaron Judge in the Bronx.2:36 – AL East16:50 – AL Central30:54 – AL West37:13 – NL East50:23 – NL Central1:01:05 – NL West1:08:28 – The Good, The Bad & The Uggla Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

Brian Cashman met the media and managed to do the one thing Yankee fans knew was coming but still weren't ready for. He pushed back on the idea that the Yankees are “running the same team back,” and in the process somehow made everyone even angrier. Evan and Tiki break down what Cashman meant versus how he said it, why Gerrit Cole's return is both obvious and not enough, and how the front office keeps leaning on last year's trade deadline as proof this team is different. The guys debate whether the Yankees actually improved, or just reframed the same roster with better PR, why the “growing pains” comment made no sense, and how losing Juan Soto still hangs over everything. Is Cashman technically right but emotionally tone deaf, or is this just another case of Yankees fans being sold the same story with new wording? Plus, a deeper look at roster flexibility, young players like Jason Dominguez and Spencer Jones, and why this franchise still refuses to leave “no doubt” heading into Opening Day. Featuring discussion of the New York Yankees, Brian Cashman, Gerrit Cole, Cody Bellinger, Anthony Volpe, and how this all stacks up against division rivals like the Toronto Blue Jays and Boston Red Sox.
Hour 4 of Evan & Tiki gets wild as a Vikings fan letter sparks a deep dive into a long-forgotten conspiracy theory accusing the Giants of cheating in the 2000 NFC Championship Game. Tiki Barber shuts it down in emphatic fashion, breaking down why the 41-0 blowout was no fluke. Plus, calls on Jets patience, Yankees playoff expectations, Cody Bellinger's awkward press conference, Knicks trade rumors involving Giannis, Super Bowl QB matchups, and classic Evan & Tiki chaos to close the show.
The Jets coaching situation is a mess as Aaron Glenn tries to fill coordinator jobs. Plus, we recap a busy night in local sports, including Cody Bellinger's return to the Bronx and a dominant showing for the Islanders and Knicks. Also, a little more about Frank Reich taking the Jets job...like why.
Lots of local talk today. The Jets' coaching search turns into a "disaster," with Aaron Glenn taking over defensive play-calling while the team desperately courts Frank Reich to salvage the offense. We talk a Knicks trade for Giannis Antetokounmpo that could cost them big players, plus, the Rangers' decision to bench Artemi Panarin. Sean Payton's odd comments on Bo Nix's injury and the Yankees welcoming back Cody Bellinger round things up, and we even have time for a few laughs here and there.
A caller wonders if Frank Reich is the right fit to lead the Jets' offense or if he should eye the Giants' opening for a chance to work with Jaxson Dart. There's also Jets QB uncertainty to ponder. We cover Cody Bellinger's Yankees return, and the growing buzz surrounding a potential Knicks trade for Giannis Antetokounmpo. Plus, the Rangers' decision to sit Artemi Panarin.
Jerry's here and starts with a bit more about the Jets new DC. Then, Cody Bellinger met the media to talk about being back with the Yankees. The Knicks beat the Raptors, the Islanders beat the Rangers 5-2, and we've got your highlights right here.

The snow is coming, the temperatures are dropping, and Dan Fox and Frank Knight are hunkering down for the “Snowstorm Edition” of Sports Fellowship with Fox and Frank, Season 7, Episode 20, the Mike Schmidt episode. With Alan “Action” Jackson back on the mic (and loudly declaring he's not going anywhere), the crew opens with storm talk, model debates (American vs. European), and the real plan for survival: groceries stocked, a fireplace going, and a playlist full of podcast episodes. They also react to the show's sudden listener surge, downloads are up, but the email inbox is still empty, which leads to the usual mix of confusion, sarcasm, and friendly harassment.From there, the show pivots into baseball hot stove season, because apparently winter weather requires Mets news. Frank breaks down the Mets' aggressive trade for Brewers pitcher Freddy Peralta, acknowledging the price tag was steep: top prospects Jet Williams and Brandon Sproat shipped out for what could be a one-year rental. The crew debates whether it's worth it unless the Mets make a deep postseason run, while also noting how Milwaukee continues to master the “sell high, restock, stay competitive” model. The Mets' retooling continues with the trade for White Sox outfielder Luis Robert, a plus defender with speed who adds pressure on the bases, even if the bat hasn't fully returned to peak form. The conversation also touches on position changes and risk: Bo Bichette shifting to third, Polanco possibly moving to first, and the broader question of whether the Mets are building a contender or just rearranging the chessboard. A rumor about clubhouse political tension causing a rift surfaces, and the crew agrees that if it's true, it's a disappointing reason to break up a roster.The Yankees get their moment as well, with Alan celebrating New York re-signing Cody Bellinger—calling it a must-have move, praising his glove and clutch value, and approving the Yankees drawing the line before the seven-year demand. From there, the episode shifts into the NFL coaching carousel: the Giants landing John Harbaugh is treated as the marquee hire, with Alan arguing the Giants did the only smart thing, don't let him leave the building, pay him, and give him control. Stefanski to Atlanta sparks debate, including a blunt reaction to media criticism and a larger discussion about how much of a coach's success depends on what the franchise actually gives him to work with. The crew then runs through other hires and head-scratchers: Jesse Minter in Baltimore (with skepticism about “coaching trees”), Jeff Hafley to Miami (with questions about whether the résumé holds up without elite personnel), and Robert Saleh to Tennessee (with cautious optimism if Cam Ward develops and the situation is less of a tire fire than the Jets).A particularly chaotic moment hits when the group tries to explain why the Bills would even interview Philip Rivers for a head coaching job—leading to a side argument about Rivers' religion and the “he has a lot of kids” stereotype, before resetting and admitting it still doesn't make much football sense. The episode wraps with a classic Fox Brothers Alarms transition: updated “palatial basement” studio renovations, the company's services, contact info, and a renewed plea for listeners to actually send emails, because 280 downloads and zero messages feels personal.Special Thanks to:Fox Brothers Alarms - https://foxbrothersalarms.comFirst Baptist church of Phillipsburg NJ http://www.fbcpburg.org/

Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley banter about the best point in the podcast at which to talk transactions, how a salary cap would affect the kind of conversations we have about baseball (based on the way we discuss other sports), the notion that a particular signing would drive owners to pursue a salary cap, and (25:09) whether a fielder’s proclivity for diving catches tells us anything about how good he is (inspired by the belief that Andruw Jones never had to dive). Then (44:32) they break down the latest Mets moves (for Luis Robert Jr. and Freddy Peralta), the team’s extreme makeover, and why the Brewers dealt Peralta, plus (1:29:08) the Yankees’ Cody Bellinger deal, their lack of roster turnover, and Belli’s up-down-up career.

The guys circle back to an emailed question they missed and finally explain the Cody Bellinger contract debate. If the Mets offered Kyle Tucker four years and $160M, why not offer Bellinger the same? The answer comes down to age, value, and how the Mets view Tucker compared to Bellinger, plus the sense that Bellinger's market was basically the Yankees. Then it's time for the weekly highlight reel: “Idiots With Idioms,” where everyone gets roasted for mangling phrases, mixing metaphors, and inventing brand new sayings on live radio. Add in storm chatter affecting schedules and travel, and the hour closes with Championship Sunday picks and updated playoff standings, including the big debates around Patriots at Broncos and Rams at Seahawks.
The wait is finally over! Cody Bellinger is a New York Yankee again! He signed back with the Yankees on a 5-year, $162.5 million deal with a few opt-outs, a no-trade clause, and a $20 million signing bonus. We react to the deal and how it will impact the Yankees next season. We also discuss the other trades and signings around the league and how they can shape the Yankees moving into pitchers and catchers in a few weeks. What do you think of the Cody Bellinger contract?

Hour 2 starts with the crew wrapping up their MLB Free Agency Bingo board, with only one final name left on the list and plenty of laughs at who nailed predictions like Cody Bellinger and who completely whiffed. Then the conversation shifts into the big-picture question: what do Vegas win totals say about the Yankees and Mets right now, and do those numbers match reality? Evan explains why he would have been far more comfortable paying a premium for an elite like Tarik Skubal than a “really good” Freddy Peralta, and why the “five-inning pitcher” label matters when you are giving up top prospects. Calls pour in debating whether the Mets should push Peralta deeper into games, whether an extension is actually possible, and whether this whole plan is a smart year-to-year build or just living on rentals. Plus: a wild Jets caller tries to “grease the wheels” for a Josh Allen fantasy, the guys roast the sad state of Jets fandom, and a fan checks in with life updates that send the show down an unexpectedly funny path. And to close the hour, the crew dives into pronunciation chaos, including a pitcher clarifying how to actually say his name, and a Drury joke that deserved better timing.
The final hour of Evan & Tiki is packed with baseball, football, and classic New York sports banter. Evan and Tiki react to a whirlwind MLB offseason, including the Mets' aggressive moves for Freddy Peralta, Luis Robert Jr., and Bo Bichette, and debate whether Peralta is a risky rental or a long-term building block. The Yankees' decision to retain Cody Bellinger sparks further discussion about roster construction and championship expectations in a Dodgers-dominated league.
It's late January, almost every MLB domino has fallen, and the crew pulls out the Free Agency Bingo board to see who actually knew what they were talking about. They relive the Cody Bellinger call, admit who got played, and set the stage for the final remaining free agent while arguing about whether trades should even count in the game. Then Evan doubles down on the biggest Mets debate: why paying a premium for “really good” Freddy Peralta is not the same as paying up for a true monster like Tarik Skubal. The “five-inning pitcher” label gets thrown on the table, the Peralta vs Skubal comparison heats up, and the Mets' long-term plan gets questioned again. Plus, the phones go sideways. A Jets caller tries to “grease the wheels” for a Josh Allen trade fantasy, the guys roast how dark it has gotten for Jets fans, and a caller checks in with a life update, a joke, and a Mets reality check that turns into a full-blown offseason therapy session.

Today's show has big shift in New York baseball as the Mets transform their rotation with Freddy Peralta and welcome Bo Bichette to Queens, while the Yankees finally provide some relief by re-signing Cody Bellinger. We dive deep into the Knicks' historic 54-point demolition of the Nets and their future, Terry Pegula's disastrous Bills press conference, and the "celebration injury" conspiracy surrounding Bo Nix that puts Jarrett Stidham in the driver's seat for Denver. Plus, we react to Boomer falling for an AI-generated photo of Shaun Morash, a looming weekend snowstorm, and a Harbaugh "hatchet job" in the Giants' front office that has fans buzzing.
