Rabbit Maranville spent 23 seasons in the National League, holds the all-time putouts record at shortstop, and has been in the Baseball Hall of Fame since 1954. He also faked his own death, got dangled out of a 14th floor hotel window by Jim Thorpe, and dove headfirst through a moving subway car. Jeff makes the case that Rabbit belongs in one Hall of Fame — just not the one in Cooperstown. Also in this episode: A minor league bat boy gets tossed for slamming baseballs into an umpire's mask.

A historic night at PNC Park and for Ryan O'Hearn as the Bucco joined the rare 10 RBI Club in the 12-4 win over the Braves. O'Hearn started his night with a Grand Slam followed by a pair of 3-run home runs. It is, at worst, on the medal stand of single-game performances in Pirates history. Where does it rank? We heard from Ryan O'Hearn after last night's game that is among the greatest single-game performances in team history. He said his helmet will be going to Cooperstown. Is the ‘Green Weenie' going to make a comeback? Former Penguin Tyler Kennedy joined the show. Jason Robertson reportedly wants to play with his brother, who the Penguins traded for and signed last week. But just because the Penguins have Nicholas Robertson that doesn't guarantee them to get Jason. At this stage, it will require a trade and the Stars could be looking for a massive haul. If the move requires Ben Kindel going back, should that be a hold up? The Pens have been linked to Elias Pettersson, who has a few 30-goal seasons under his belt. Is Pittsburgh still an attractive place to play thanks to Sidney Crosby?

When Chuck Klein broke into Major League Baseball with the Philadelphia Phillies in 1928, few knew about the power he possessed. In just 64 games, he connected for 11 home runs and hit .360. A great debut. What followed was six of the most prolific seasons in not just Phillies history, but MLB history, too! From 1929 through 1933, he averaged 36 home runs a season, averaged .359 a season, and averaged 138 RBI a season. He won an MVP, won a triple crown, four times he led the National League in total bases, twice in hits, twice in doubles, and he even led the National League in stolen bases one season. As if all that isn't enough, he set the record for most assists as an outfielder with 44 in 1930. Back to total bases, his 445 in 1930 rank fourth all-time, and his 420 in 1932 ranks ninth all-time. Lou Gehrig is the only other player to appear in the top 10 twice. Yet, for all Klein accomplished, his career is largely overlooked. When he played, the Phillies' home field was the Baker Bowl, and it was only 280 feet down the right field line. But the right field wall was 60-feet-tall. Many experts hold the 280-feet against Klein despite the height of the wall. Yet, those same experts don't hold the dimensions of 314 feet down the right field line against left-handed hitters in the Yankees lineup, or the 258 feet down the right field line against Mel Ott of the New York Giants, or the 310 feet in left field with the 37-foot wall in Fenway Park against right-handed batters. Klein's numbers were phenomenal. Klein retired, for good, after the 1944 season with 300 homeruns and a career batting average of .320. Yet, it took until 1980, 36 years after he retired, before he was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, NY, by the Veterans Committee. On this episode of Sports' Forgotten Heroes, the host of Midnight Library of Baseball podcast, Ben Orlando, joins for a terrific discussion about a forgotten baseball great - Chuck Klein.

Send us Fan MailThis episode featured Dean Florence and his 12-year-old son Luca Florence, discussing Luca's journey in baseball and his upcoming trip to Cooperstown. Dean shared how Luca's passion for baseball began at age 3 when he demanded to play with his older brother, leading to his first coach-pitch home run at just 7 years old. Luca discussed his love for the game, favorite player Mike Trout, and his role as a catcher who enjoys calling his own pitches. The conversation covered Luca's impressive statistics including approximately 25 career home runs with 12-13 this season, his upcoming trip to Cooperstown where he plans to visit multiple MLB stadiums along the way, and his approach to handling both successes and losses with a focus on mental toughness and love for the game rather than wins and losses. Dean emphasized the importance of letting children be themselves and not putting pressure on them, while also discussing the benefits of Luca playing multiple positions and other sports to develop his overall skills. The interview highlighted the special bond between father and son through baseball and the life lessons the sport teaches beyond just playing the game."Swing Hard in case you hit it!" Denny Barrett

Episode 173 of Tablesetters is LIVE! We begin with the Chicago Cubs, whose pitching staff continues to be hit by injury after injury. With more key arms landing on the injured list, we discuss what it means for one of baseball's contenders, whether help is on the way, and if the season is beginning to reach a critical point. From there, we head to Queens, where the Mets continue searching for answers. Despite confidence from the front office that there's still time to turn things around, we examine where New York stands, what's gone wrong, and whether this team can still get itself back into the postseason conversation. We also revisit one of baseball's biggest Hall of Fame debates. Kyle Schwarber continues to build one of the game's most unique résumés, but is it enough to earn a plaque in Cooperstown? We break down both sides of the argument and discuss what really defines a Hall of Fame career in today's game. Plus, Rafael Devers is speaking out following his on-field incident with the Giants, while one of baseball's most unexpected controversies has everyone talking after Jazz Chisholm Jr.'s now-infamous "Lollipop-Gate." We dive into both stories, the reactions surrounding them, and whether the attention each situation has received is justified. We also head back to Omaha to recap the Men's College World Series, where Oklahoma completed an unforgettable postseason run to capture the program's first national championship since 1994. We break down the biggest moments from the championship series, the standout performances, and what made the Sooners' run one of the best stories of the college baseball season. And of course, we wrap things up with another edition of Red Hot & Ice Cold, highlighting the hottest hitter and pitcher in baseball over the past two weeks, along with a pair of players looking to turn things around.

RUNDOWN Mitch and Danny bounce from the changing economics of podcasting to baseball's disappearing workhorse pitchers before revisiting area codes and birthday trivia. Along the way, they debate Hall of Fame cases for Wade Boggs, Mike Holmgren, Vince Carter, and Tim Lincecum—while wondering whether "The Freak" could become Cooperstown's greatest omission. Broadcasting from the middle of Knicks mania, Danny gives Mitch a firsthand look at what a title run means in New York. The pair explore why America briefly embraced the Knicks, compare New York fandom to European soccer culture, and debate whether Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs let a championship slip away. The Mariners return home from a disappointing road trip with injuries mounting and the AL West tightening. Mitch, Brady, and Joe sort through Seattle's recent slide, debate lineup and roster decisions involving Cal Raleigh, J.P. Crawford, and Cole Young, and examine bullpen concerns, Matt Brash's durability, and the future of the six-man rotation. Fresh off a 16-day European adventure, Mitch and Puck reflect on the joys and exhaustion of traveling with adult children, from Berlin and Tuscany to Rome and London's Churchill War Rooms.

Edgar Martinez was one of the best right-handed hitters of his era. He retired at the conclusion of the 2004 season, after spending 18 distinguished and loyal years playing for the Seattle Mariners. He finished with a .312/,418/,515/,933 slashline, which places him in the company of some of the game's immortals. Over his career, he made seven All-Srar teams. won a pair of American League Batting Titles, five Silver Slugger Awards and five Most Outstanding Designated Hitter Awards. He is arguably one of the greatest Designated Hitters to ever swing a bat, as evidenced by the fact that Major League Baseball renamed the Most Outstanding Designated Hitter Award to the Edgar Martinez Award in his honor, upon his retirement. This week, we profile this man's amazing baseball journey from Dorado, Puerto Rico to Seattle, Washington and eventually to Cooperstown, New York, to rightfully take his place in the Pantheon Of Baseball Immortals; The National Baseball Hall Of Fame. #EdgarMartinez #CarmeloMartinez #MartyMartinez #HolliMartinez #SeattleMariners #JimLefbvr #KenGriffeyJr #RandyJohnson #JackMcDowell #IchiroSuzuki #MarianoRivera #PedroMartinez #BretBoone #DaveNiehaus

Was Graig Nettles one of the greatest third basemen to ever play… or just another name lost in the numbers? This episode of Kenny The Sports Guy Podcast dives deep into one of baseball's most debated Hall of Fame snubs. A 22-year MLB veteran, Nettles crushed 390 home runs, drove in over 1,300 RBIs, and anchored championship teams with the New York Yankees. He was a six-time All-Star, a two-time World Series champion, and one of the best defensive third basemen of his era. So why isn't he in Cooperstown? We break down the real reasons: A .248 career batting average that never wowed voters Limited accolades compared to peers at a stacked position Playing in the shadow of legends like Mike Schmidt and Brooks Robinson And a Hall of Fame voting system that dropped him off the ballot in just four years But here's the twist—advanced stats tell a different story. Nettles posted around 68 WAR, one of the highest totals for any player NOT in the Hall of Fame . So did voters get it wrong? This episode asks the tough question: Was Graig Nettles truly snubbed… or just not quite elite enough?

Mike Mussina was a cerebral assassin and one of the most consistent pitchers in baseball history, excelling against some of the game's biggest sluggers during the "Steroid Era". Despite finishing his Hall Of Fame career with 270 wins, and an American League record of 17 consecutive seasons with more than 10 wins, his career has been earmarked by near-misses and lost opportunity, both personally and for his teams. Always the best man, but never the groom, Moose would never win a Cy Young Award, but he would be a top 5 vote-getter 6 times in his career. He carried four no-hitters into the 8th or 9th inning, before coming up short, the most times for any pitcher who has never thrown a no-hitter. And he would neverf win a World Series ring. The closest he would come was 2001, when he would watch Luis Gonzalez hit a walk-off championship winning bloop single off Yankees teammate and closer Mariano RIvera, in Game Seven. He was a mad surgeon, applying small knicks from his scapel to his opponents, which on the surface seemed harmless. But if you took a step back and looked at yourself in the late innings. you'd be a bloody fucking mess. This week we follow his baseball journey from small=town America; Montoursville, Pennsylvania to a baseball legacy that ends in Cooperstown, New York, as one of the all-time immortals. #MikeMussina #Moose #MalcolmMussina #EllieMussina #MarkMussina #UniversityOfStanford #EdSprague #BaltimoreOrioles #CalRipkenJr #NewYorkYankees #MichaelKay #JoeTorre

Joe Buck joins Tim and Jeff Kurkjian and, as always, he doesn’t disappoint. The legendary play-by-play announcer has done it all, so we’ll spare you the long list of accomplishments—but trust us, it’s impressive. What we will tell you is that he’s just been announced as the new host of ESPN’s Jeopardy!, and we’ve got the inside scoop. Joe shares what he knows so far and how soon filming is set to begin. We also dive into his relationship with his father, Hall of Fame broadcaster Jack Buck, and the remarkable career that helped shape Joe’s path. In fact, they’ll become the first father-son duo enshrined in Cooperstown as broadcasters—pretty cool. Then we take a trip down memory lane to the days of Brockmire, where both Tim and Joe appeared (Joe a bit more prominently) alongside the incredibly talented Hank Azaria. The behind-the-scenes stories are priceless. Joe also gives us a great look into what it was like growing up around the St. Louis Cardinals. Whether you’re a Cards fan or just a baseball fan in general, you’re going to love these stories. Big thanks to Joe for joining us—and as always, thank you for listening.

Finish Your Breakfast (4.17.2026): Trout and Judge finished their epic series in the Bronx. I believe the final count was 22 home runs between the Yankees and Angels in four games. Trout had 5 HR and 9 RBIs. Judge had 4 HRs and 5 RBIs. Jo Adell hit the big one yesterday, a grand slam in the eight inning. Angels won the game and tied the series. And, Jo Adell's three-home run-robbing glove is going to Cooperstown. All of that and more on FYB.

On this week’s edition of Inside the (Rob) Parker, Rob discusses the blowback surrounding the Los Angeles Dodgers’ bloated payroll, Mike Trout’s return to prominence during a road series in The Bronx, and Jo Adell’s glove being taken to Cooperstown. Later, New York Mets pitcher Devin Williams swings by for a very compelling conversation, and Star Tribune Minnesota Twins beat writer Bobby Nightengale checks in to discuss their hot start to the season. Plus, we drop Rob's latest appearance on MLB Network and the latest edition of Pocket Protector Central with analytics guru Anthony Masterson, and reveal the fourth installment of his Memory Lane series.

From 'Baseball Isn't Boring' (subscribe here): We have talked a lot on the podcast about Dustin Pedroia's Hall of Fame candidacy, going so far as to name our project 'Operation 1526'. Now, we may have found the ultimate voice in pushing Pedroia toward Cooperstown. Bradfo sits down with Brewers manager Pat Murphy to discuss and dissect why Pedroia's former college coach at Arizona State is adamant that the second baseman belongs in the Hall. Bradfo also catches up with one of Murphy's young pitchers, Brandon Sproat, who is living life with the Brewers after being a key part of the Freddy Peralta deal with the Mets.

On this episode of Kenny The Sports Guy Podcast, Kenny dives into one of baseball's most debated legacies — the career of Sammy Sosa. Once one of the most electrifying sluggers in the game, Sosa captivated fans during the historic home run chase with Mark McGwire during the 1998 season, helping bring baseball back into the spotlight after the 1994–95 Major League Baseball strike. But despite hitting 609 career home runs, winning the 1998 NL MVP, and becoming a global icon with the Chicago Cubs, Sosa still remains on the outside looking in when it comes to the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum. Why hasn't one of the most prolific power hitters in history been inducted? Kenny examines the numbers, the controversy surrounding baseball's steroid era, and the complicated legacy that has kept Sosa out of Cooperstown. Is he a Hall of Famer who has been unfairly judged, or does the era he played in define how history remembers him? Join Kenny as he breaks down The Hall of Famer That Wasn't: Sammy Sosa. ⚾
