It's just absurd that Elon Musk and Donald Trump are having a very public fight but I guess this is what you get when you try to keep a couple whales in your farm pond. Let's hope this cools off quickly. Missouri politicians take a victory lap all day long Thursday as they are now totally convinced the Chiefs and Royals are staying in the Show Me state. North Kansas City wants to party and they are willing to pay you $400 to do it. The new Black Panther is white in Marvel Comic's new series. A straight Ohio woman wins a SCOTUS case against her gay boss with a 9-0 decision. This is huge. In sports, the Royals split a double header but should have won both. Manager Q and Cole Ragans have awful days but several players did not. Aaron Rodgers signs with the Steelers, the NBA Finals begin with a buzzer beating shocker and your song of the week is an ode to great Americans.

Send us a text#Yankees Aaron Judge is now on pace for 56 home runs which would surprise exactly nobody! Judge also has a #MLB leading 39 RBIs which over 162 games would be 156 RBIs. That hasn't been done since A-Rod did it for those same Yankees in 2007. But the real question is can Judge maintain his +.400 batting average? Doubtful but fun to watch! #Pirates CF O'neil Cruz leads MLB on pace for 60+ SBs. Can he keep that up? He has a new manager now that Derek Shelton has been let go. Bud Black of the #Rockies was also dismissed this weekend. Probably doing him and the franchise a favor as the team has been historically awful and had a historically awful week! Max Fried has a MLB league leading ERA at 1.04. He's in place to start the ASG if this keeps up. But how about #Royals Kris Dubic? He's had an excellent start to the season and is largely forgotten behind Cole Ragans and Seth Lugo. #Tigers Skubal has rounded into form but the loss of Casey Mize will hurt the Motor City kitties. #Dodgers Shohei Ohtani has been routinely amazing such that it's no longer notable!

The Royals have taken advantage of the softer schedule to pile up the wins. What's the best case scenario for the 2025 season look like now?David Lesky (Publisher - Inside the Crown/@DBLesky), Les Norman (Former Royals OF/Author - Teaching the Tools of Hitting) and Soren Petro (Sports Radio 810-WHB, 810whb.com/@SorenPetro) discuss the ceiling and floor for the Royals, plus…- Best and worst case scenarios for this team are… - How great is Cole Ragans?- Will Ragans break the Royals single season strikeout record?- Which core players will the Royals need to trade eventually?- Is Maikel worth more to the Royals as a trade piece?- Early trade targets for the Royals!- Why is attendance so low?

Welcome to Episode 81 of Tablesetters! Devin and Steve are back with a fast-moving, stat-packed dive into a wild week across Major League Baseball. We start in the Bronx, where the Yankees handed the game over to Devin Williams with a 3-0 lead in the 8th… and he handed it right back. Two outs, then chaos—after a hit and two walks, Luke Weaver gave up back-to-back two-run hits to cough up the lead entirely. Williams blamed the rain, but his ERA now sits above 10, and Yankee fans are losing patience. The Padres continue their surge despite losing both Fernando Tatis Jr. and manager Mike Shildt to ejections—they've now rattled off six straight wins. Over in Queens, the Mets are falling apart: AJ Minter (1.64 ERA) is out for the season with a lat tear, Danny Young needs Tommy John, and Jesse Winker's oblique strain will sideline him 6–8 weeks. Brett Baty's back, and Genesis Cabrera joins the pen—but the depth is running thin. And how about the Athletics? With a walk-off win over Seattle, they've gone 7-3 in their last 10 and sit just one game out of first place at 20-16. The Royals are also heating up, led by Cole Ragans, who returned from a minor groin issue and struck out 11 in his comeback start. KC has won three straight and is right in the AL Central mix. We also dive into a brutal round of IL stints across the league—Trout, Yordan, Imanaga, Jazz, Glasnow, Buehler, Casas, and Teoscar all out. We debate which loss is the toughest to absorb. Elsewhere: Bret Boone is now the hitting coach in Texas Jake Burger sent to Triple-A Leody Taveras claimed by the Mariners Evan Carter gets the call back Lance McCullers makes his first start since the 2022 World Series Plus, the Sub-2 ERA Crew continues to deal: Yamamoto (0.90), Max Fried (1.01), Mahle (1.19), Senga (1.38), Brown (1.67), Luzardo (1.94), and Kris Bubic (1.98) are all under 2.00. And in Take a Pitch/Swing Away, we take our swings at three big topics: Is Pete Crow-Armstrong's hot start sustainable? Could Aaron Judge actually chase a .400 Triple Crown? Is Sandy Alcantara's trade value completely shot with an 8.42 ERA?

Hey, the Chiefs are pretty good at drafting players if you didn't already know. This was just sensational as the Chiefs put enough fear into teams fighting over the 31st pick for a linebacker KC didn't want that they moved down. One spot. Yes, one spot and got the offensive tackle they wanted and picked up a free pick in the 5th round out of thin air. Brilliant. Mizzou's Armand Membou from Lee's Summit goes high at #7... incredible. Receiver Luther Burden has to wait another day but it's not as bad as it is for apparently overrated quarterback Shadeur Sanders who was the night's biggest loser. The Royals get a double header AND series sweep against Colorado and have won four in a row. The question now is did they lose Cole Ragans for an extended period. Dr. Jeremy Fry is our Friday conversation and he's picking our Song of the Week.
A Cole Ragans update & NFL Rumors in the Need To Know, and our ESPN MLB Insider Jeff Passan joins us to talk baseball!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On the April 18, 2025 episode of RJ Bell's Dream Preview MLB podcast, Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner provided in-depth analysis of the Friday baseball slate with betting insights. Munaf opened by highlighting his 5-1 betting record and credited their collaborative discussions for the success. The first matchup covered was Diamondbacks vs. Cubs (0:10–7:40). Corbin Burnes has struggled early, while Cubs starter Colin Rea provides potential value. Chicago leads MLB in runners in scoring position appearances and has scored 124 runs to Arizona's 104. The Cubs as home underdogs and a lean to the over were discussed, depending on Wrigley Field wind. In Royals vs. Tigers (7:41–11:34), Cole Ragans faces top prospect Jackson Jobe. Kansas City's offense has produced just 19 runs over its last 10 games and is 2-8 on the road. The Tigers' bullpen is strong, and both hosts leaned toward Detroit plus money and under 7.5. Guardians vs. Pirates (11:35–15:11) features Luis Ortiz against Carmen Mlodzinski. Mlodzinski has a 1.77 WHIP with command issues. The Guardians were favored due to bullpen depth. Pittsburgh is 6-4 at home and to the over. There was a slight lean to Cleveland and possibly over 8.5. In Marlins vs. Phillies (15:12–19:08), Sandy Alcantara is no longer dominant, while Zack Wheeler boasts an 11-4 record and 2.73 ERA against Miami. Philadelphia is 24-11 in Wheeler's home starts since 2023. The Phillies were a strong lean, especially on the run line. Yankees vs. Rays (19:49–25:11) featured Carlos Rodón, who has allowed 4+ earned runs and 3+ walks in three straight starts. Drew Rasmussen has not allowed a run in 21 career innings vs. the Yankees. Munaf's best bet was Rays first five innings at -110. In Reds vs. Orioles (25:12–28:31), Andrew Abbott faces Cade Povich. While Abbott had a solid outing against Pittsburgh, Baltimore's offense poses more danger. The Orioles were favored and offensive production expected. Mariners vs. Blue Jays (28:31–31:40) has Bryan Woo, who has struggled away from home, against Bowden Francis. Toronto is 7-3 at home and the over 7.5 was considered. Cardinals vs. Mets (31:42–35:05) pits Miles Mikolas against David Peterson. St. Louis is 1-6 on the road and lacks comeback potential. The Mets were the lean, especially on the run line. Griffin's best bet was Braves -130 vs. Twins (35:06–38:12). Chris Paddack has lost all three starts by 2+ runs and Bryce Elder is trying to earn a rotation spot. In Red Sox vs. White Sox (38:13–41:46), Martín Pérez is a steady innings-eater. Boston has a negative run differential and both hosts were reluctant to back them as heavy favorites. Dodgers vs. Rangers (41:46–45:55) features Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who has a 0.91 WHIP and 28 strikeouts in 22 innings, against Jacob deGrom, who's allowed multiple home runs in consecutive starts. The Dodgers were favored early. In Astros vs. Padres (52:32–56:54), Kyle Hart rebounded after a poor debut, while Houston's Ryan Gusto is unproven. The Padres are 15-4, and with Houston's bullpen issues, San Diego at +123 was the consensus lean. Brewers vs. A's (56:55–1:01:02) has Freddy Peralta allowing six earned runs over 23.1 innings. Milwaukee is 43-27 at home in his starts since 2018. Nationals vs. Rockies (1:01:11–1:04:14) features cold Denver weather and a low total of nine. MacKenzie Gore's road struggles were noted, but Washington was the slight lean. Giants vs. Angels (1:04:14–1:07:43) featured Logan Webb's consistency against Tyler Anderson. San Francisco is 9-4 on the road with eight wins by 2+ runs. Munaf leaned Giants run line. The episode ended with a promo for Pregame's $1,000 MLB contest and 20 percent discount code HOMERUN20.

Cole Ragans is a top 3 pitcher right now and Bobby Witt is a top 3 player. Which has impressed you more so far?
This Royals team is not fun to watch yet but the key word is yet!! We talk Chiefs draft and then debate Cole Ragans and Bobby Witt Jr. and who is better right now.
There won't be a more dramatic moment in sports this year than Rory McIlroy's playoff win at the Masters to complete the career Grand Slam. It was just the greatest and he sobbed like a baby with no tears of joy. It was all relief. This really is a tradition unlike any other. Cole Ragans picks up the Royals to avoid a sweep in Cleveland and this was bigger than most. Ragans pitched deep into the 8th and recorded 10 strikeouts. It was pure pandemonium at the UFC fights in Miami this weekend when President Trump arrived. He also announced a tariff break for tech companies. A Kansas City man that was falsely accused of being an illegal alien gunman at the Chiefs Super Bowl parade is found dead in his home. And comedian Bill Maher comes clean on Trump.
