Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner talk MLB betting for Wednesday. The latest Dream Preview baseball breakdown opened with Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner reviewing tough recent beats before diving into Thursday's slate of Major League Baseball action. Early frustrations centered on bullpen management, where questionable decisions cost winning tickets. Griffin highlighted Bruce Bochy's choices with the Rangers, while Munaf recapped Jeff Hoffman's collapse for Toronto. Both acknowledged the natural ebb and flow of a long season but emphasized how frustrating late-game implosions can be when handicapping results were correct until the ninth inning. Attention then shifted to Thursday's card. The first matchup was Boston at Baltimore. Garrett Crochet's dominance, particularly on the road, was contrasted with Cade Povich's struggles at Camden Yards. With Boston in the playoff chase and Baltimore fading, the Red Sox were positioned as strong run-line value. From there the crew evaluated Arizona against Milwaukee, with concerns about the Brewers' bullpen health and Jose Quintana's crafty veteran presence. Both leaned toward expecting runs given Milwaukee's offensive consistency at home. Houston hosting Colorado drew skepticism about laying a steep moneyline price on the Astros when their offense has sputtered. Kyle Freeland's road history pointed to unders, though the panel admitted Houston needed wins to stay in the AL West race. Pittsburgh at St. Louis prompted a lean toward the under, with Miles Mikolas much stronger at home and Braxton Ashcraft offering upside. The Cubs and Giants series was pegged as a pitcher's duel between Shota Imanaga and Logan Webb, with a likely under in a low-scoring Oracle Park day game. Atlanta at Philadelphia carried the most intrigue. Cal Quantrill's move to the Braves and Aaron Nola's inconsistency created an opening for offense. Both analysts saw double-digit potential and pointed to recent totals easily exceeding posted numbers. The Phillies' injury issues, especially losing Zach Wheeler, added to the uncertainty but suggested their bullpen would be heavily tested. The evening spotlight was Yankees versus White Sox. Will Warren's inexperience and Davis Martin's limited ceiling pointed to offense in Chicago. With both defenses prone to errors and suspect bullpens, the over nine was recommended, while the White Sox as home underdogs were noted as live if their bats clicked. The missing line revealed Mets versus Marlins, with Clay Holmes favored to control the matchup but bullpen risks keeping the over attractive. Best bets were locked in at the end. Griffin chose Yankees–White Sox over nine, citing unreliable pitching and defense. Munaf went with Boston -1.5 behind Crochet's stellar road form against a struggling Povich. They closed with reminders about Pregame promotions, including a college football contest and Griffin's discounted 30-day package. Overall the podcast combined raw reactions to recent heartbreakers with sharp handicapping of Thursday's board. The hosts stressed the importance of finding value across moneylines, run lines, and totals while acknowledging baseball's volatility. Their insight showed how bullpen management, pitcher splits, and situational motivation shape betting strategy. For bettors tracking MLB daily, this episode offered guidance across multiple matchups and reinforced why patience, discipline, and line shopping remain essential for long-term profit Learn more about your ad choices.

The 2025 MLB season has not even reached the postseason yet, but we already have the schedule for what the 2026 season is going to look like. That schedule was released on Tuesday with some very notable takeaways. The season will get started in primetime with an Opening Night on Wednesday, March 25th as the New York Yankees fly across the country to visit the San Francisco Giants. The other 28 teams will start their seasons the next day for the earliest traditional Opening Day in MLB history, on March 26th. The New York Mets and Yankees will play each other in a series starting on September 11th for the 25th anniversary of 9/11. Every team will be in action on the 4th of July to celebrate the United States' 250th birthday. The All-Star game will be in Philadelphia on July 14th. These are just a few of the many notable dates on the 2026 MLB schedule. Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss their thoughts on the schedule, what stands out to them and how they feel about a balanced schedule. Plus, the World Cup arrives next summer. How will these games affect MLB games?Then, the guys talk to a legend as Cal Ripken Jr. joins the show! He talks with Jake and Jordan about his Hall of Fame career. He chats about breaking the record for most consecutive games played, what he thinks about current players not playing all 162 games, his transition after baseball and more!Next, the guys chat through some notable news. The new Women's Professional Baseball League held tryouts recently, finishing up with their final day of tryouts at Nationals Park on August 25th.

Plus, the Mets call up a top pitching prospect to start Friday, Junior Caminero continues to impress at just 22-years-old and Garrett Crochet continues to make a case for the AL Cy Young. Finally, the biggest news of the day, on Tuesday, didn't come from the baseball world, but it did come from the sports world as Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift announced they are engaged.

His rise to the head coaching ranks also included stops at Missouri (his alma mater) and TCU. He has earned a reputation as one of the elite recruiters on the college baseball landscape, having assembled 14 top-15 signing classes--including America's top-rated crop of talent in 2014 and 2024.During a full-time, Division I coaching career spanning 22 years, Vitello has signed and developed 16 first-round MLB Draft picks and a handful of players who have gone on to play in Major League Baseball, including nine during his time at UT in Garrett Crochet, Ben Joyce, Andre Lipcius, Trey Lipscomb, Jordan Beck, Seth Halvorsen, Chase Dollander, Blade Tidwell and Christian Moore. Other notable MLB players coached by Vitello include Brandon Finnegan, Kyle Gibson, All-Star Aaron Crow, Gold Glove Award winner and All-Star Andrew Benintendi, Gold Glove Award winner and four-time All-Star Ian Kinsler and five-time All-Star and three-time Cy Young Award winner Max Scherzer.Vitello, who has earned six National Coach of the Year honors over three different seasons at Tennessee, has recruited and developed 10 first-round picks during his tenure with the Vols, including an NCAA-leading and program-record four first rounders in the 2025 MLB Draft, led by the No. 5 overall pick in pitcher Liam Doyle. Crochet, who was selected with the 11th overall pick in the 2020 MLB Draft and became the first player to go from the draft to the big leagues without playing in the minors since Mike Leake did so with the Reds in 2010. UT has had at least two players drafted in the first round in three of the past four seasons (2022, 2024, 2025).Tennessee has had 52 players drafted since 2018 when Vitello took over as head coach, averaging 6.5 picks per year. Since 2021, the Vols' 42 total draft picks lead the nation.

The Red Sox have a lot of promising up-and-comers. What does it look like when a prospect transverses the gap to the major leagues? Hunter Noll has a lot to say about who we should be looking at in the coming years. This week in Red Sox baseball was lackluster. Crochet got knocked around for the first time in his Red Sox tenure. We lost a game to the Marlins in embarrassing fashion. Truthfully, don't we all wish the Red Sox could have done better than 3/6 this week. It is still a competitive team, and it will become a more competitive team in the years to come. At least, that is the consensus from our prospect eye-in-the-sky Hunter Noll.

Jordan and Jason recap a disappointing series with the Houston Astros that saw the Red Sox drop a Crochet game and a Buehler game. However, Dustin May was brilliant in his second start for Boston.Later, the two discuss the recently DFA'd first baseman Nathaniel Lowe as a potential option for the Sox down the stretch if they truly don't want to throw Kristian Campbell back to the fire in 2025. Then, they preview this upcoming series with the Miami Marlins, which could display some fireworks with Cal Quantrill slated to start Game 2.Make sure to follow us on Twitter, @ThePeskyReport.

Disappointing Crochet start... Hicks is really really bad... over six era with the Red Sox. Crochet was due for a bad start. Longest losing streak in the American League. The Mariners passed us! Should we be worried about this team making October?
Disappointing Crochet start... Hicks is really really bad... over six era with the Red Sox. Crochet was due for a bad start. Longest losing streak in the American League. The Mariners passed us! Should we be worried about this team making October? The Astros fans boo'd Bregman. That is what fans do! Will Flemming did not like it, but it happens. The starting pitcher for the Astros tonight is not good. What about the sign stealing fiasco? Are the Red Sox base coaches in the box? MLB confirmed that whatever the Red Sox are doing on their dugout iPad is legal! If you aren't breaking any rules, this sign stealing is all fair game. Wyc is out of the Celtics org. This goes against the plan. We all saw this coming! Dan says this signifies Wyc's dissatisfaction with the payroll. There is something fishy about this. Fans loved Wyc. Did Bill Chisholm do this to ease fans off of Wyc? Does he want the same treatment?
Today, co-founders Kimberly Erni and Pei Pei Wang join the Elixir Wizards to discuss their crochet app, LoopedIn. Recognizing a gap in the market for a more user-friendly and interactive crochet pattern experience, they're building an app that makes following patterns easier and more enjoyable for crocheters of all skill levels. They're building features such as step-by-step guidance, video tutorials, and the ability to upload and convert PDF patterns into an interactive format. Kimberly explains how she's leveraging AI tools to vibe code in Elixir and LiveView. They highlight the challenges and successes they encountered while creating a Progressive Web App (PWA) that integrates AI-powered features. They also discuss their user research and testing process, which involved gathering feedback from the crochet community to prioritize features and improve the app's UX. Kimberly and Pei Pei share their thoughts on the potential of AI in the tech industry and how it has assisted them in the development and iteration process. They emphasize the importance of understanding the code generated by AI and the need for proper testing and verification. They offer advice to others looking to create passion projects, stressing the value of finding a partner with complementary skills and shared enthusiasm for the project. Topics discussed in this episode: Discovering a niche: why crochet patterns need a digital makeover Core LoopedIn features: interactive steps, video help, PDF conversion Building a PWA with Elixir & Phoenix LiveView for cross-platform reach Offline support and caching strategies for on-the-go crafting AI-driven pattern parsing: benefits and pitfalls of generated code User research: gathering feedback from beginner to expert crocheters Agile iterations: testing, prioritizing features, and shipping quickly Balancing “vibe coding” with quality assurance and proper test coverage Partnership dynamics: complementary skills and shared passion Monetization approaches for a niche, community-driven app Roadmap highlights: expanded social features, advanced AI tooling, and more Lessons learned: documentation gaps, performance tuning, and UX trade-offs Advice for side projects: start small, validate with users, and iterate Links mentioned: Amigurumis https://www.amigurumi.com/ https://pragmaticstudio.com/phoenix-liveview https://grox.io/about-product/liveview Creating a Local First LiveView App https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcafwf14SDo https://capacitorjs.com/docs https://flutter.dev/ https://passion.place/ https://cursor.com/ https://claude.ai/ https://nerves-project.org/ https://crochetapp.web.app/ https://www.figma.com/ Little Red Book App https://www.xiaohongshu.com/ !!

Aujourd'hui, on découvre ensemble le parcours et les projets de Déborah, qui a créé la marque AnnaB dans l'univers du crochet. Elle nous raconte comment elle est passée d'infirmière à crochet designer et comment progressivement sa marque a grandi, pour aujourd'hui proposer des kits et des patrons de crochet. Déborah nous parle de son premier salon Créations & savoir-faire, de l'écriture de ses 2 livres et de ses projets pour 2024. Elle partage avec nous également autour du délicat sujet de la copie de créations, un des moments particulièrement difficiles qu'elle a vécus avec son entreprise et je la remercie de sa transparence à ce sujet.Bonne écoute !Mélanie
(00:00) Tonight's show begins with Joe’s reaction to doing nothing at the trade deadline (12:06) Joe talks about Craig Breslow's disappointing deadline. (25:45) Joe checks in on the health of Garrett Crochet. (32:02) Joe takes some calls regarding Patriots training camp.
The Drive: Alex Bregman has to be the defined leader of the clubhouse. What else can he do? Asked Ted. Bregman has never missed the playoffs in his career, he has to lead the attitude in the clubhouse. Him and Cora have to work together as a unit. The Rangers spent and got Merrill Kelly. Resetting on Parsons. Maybe the Patriots will fulfil Andy's dreams Cooper Criswell is starting for the Red Sox. What is he all about? Gotta feel bad for him right now. Long reliever type guy. Crochet load management talk. Ted took the fastest victory lap of all time last night when we thought Joe Ryan was ours. Will Flemming joins the show How is he feeling about the trade deadline? He is very upset with the Red Sox and thinks the team could have added more, but they did everything they could to make big moves. Joe Ryan is the guy they want. The Twins made the Red Sox uncomfortable. The national reporters got everything wrong. The trade deadline is its own animal. He does not think people should be so hard on Breslow. All the players are fine.

We search for peace in this chaotic month, and find it in a little shop in Kingston, New York. The Yarn Farm is made those who like the company of kindred spirits to ply their craft, sure. It's also great for those who might want to stop for a quick skein or an artsy crafty yarn-ish item, as well. But for those of us who might find Zen in an adult beverage, a perfect charcuterie board and a sunny table by the river, we're also home.Links:https://www.yarnfarmkingston.comhttps://sheepandwool.comhttps://www.dcswga.orgSupport the show

We talked about our projects and fav LYSs. I showed her how simple magic loop knitting is. Laura brought socks to her client David when she got back to NY. He sent me a photo asking if they were Cashmere because they were so soft and noting how great they looked with the pants he had on. Then I got a pic of his foot under his desk at work the next day. (Ravelry Project Page) On July 7, a man chatted with me on the Red Line about memories of his mother, sisters and daughters crocheting. Emelyn has been wanting to crochet again but is feeling rusty. On July 4th I reminded them how to single & half-double crochet. Last weekend, they started a star project so we worked with DC and how to work corners and getting used to reading a pattern.

SEGMENT - In the debut of a new segment Andy and Dan look back at Dan's three-point stance from last week where he said the Red Sox should skip Garrett Crochet's final start before the All-Star break.
Former MLB Pitcher Josh Towers and Scott Seidenberg look at the standings and stats around baseball here at the All Star Break with BEST BETS for the remainder of the season. At the 2025 MLB All-Star break, the Inside Pitch podcast with Scott Seidenberg and Josh Towers delivers a sharp, numbers-driven midseason analysis. They highlight which teams are outperforming or underperforming expectations based on actual wins versus Pythagorean projections. The Toronto Blue Jays lead the AL East with a 55–41 record but are five wins ahead of their expected total, signaling potential regression. The Yankees are six games below their expected record, indicating possible value in the second half. Injuries and returning players also dominate discussion—Luis Garcia and Christian Javier returning to the Astros' rotation is likened to acquiring top talent at the trade deadline. Luis Gil's rehab performance could also bolster the Yankees. Boston's young squad, led by Garrett Crochet and Roman Anthony, is positioned to make a late push if they acquire key pieces like a veteran first baseman or another starter. Win total bets discussed include taking the under on Toronto's 89.5 projection and over on Houston's 92.5 due to an easy remaining schedule. The Brewers emerge as the most profitable team in baseball for bettors, returning over $1,300 if wagered on every game. Milwaukee also boasts a 72% win rate as favorites. Advanced pitching stats suggest strong Cy Young cases for Zach Wheeler and long-shot Christopher Sanchez in the National League, while Crochet and Scooble are nearly even statistically in the AL race. Aaron Judge is unanimously favored to win AL MVP, outpacing competitors like Cal Raleigh in nearly every offensive metric. Shohei Ohtani's recent return to pitching enhances his case for NL MVP. The Phillies are picked to win the NL East, with three pitchers having 10+ quality starts, a key measure of reliability. For the postseason, the Yankees, Astros, and Tigers are favorites in the AL, while the Dodgers and Phillies are expected to meet in the NLCS. The Red Sox and Blue Jays are likely Wild Card teams, though the latter are expected to regress. Arizona is projected to fade down the stretch, likely trading veterans like Suarez, Naylor, and perhaps Gallen, and their under-79.5 win total is recommended. Despite offensive firepower, the Diamondbacks' pitching struggles make them unreliable. Meanwhile, Milwaukee and Chicago are competing in the NL Central, and both are top betting values. Overall, listeners are encouraged to buy into the Yankees, Red Sox, and Astros for the second half, and fade teams like Toronto and Arizona. Josh and Scott also touch on key upcoming matchups, strategic deadline considerations, and award markets—recommending Sanchez for NL Cy Young at 20:1 and Crochet at +240 in the AL. They close by predicting the ALCS will feature the Astros and Yankees, while the NLCS will likely be a showdown between the Dodgers and Phillies, pending injury returns.

I finished those over the course of the week's train rides, then got the rest out and found 1 more that needed the border. All of those are done now. The other 8 squares have already been steamed. Plan to steam the most recently finished 4 then start SCing the big squares together. Border- undecided. May do a few rounds of gray. May incorporate colors. Debating an iCord border. I can't decide.

Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner break down MLB Tuesday. Best bets as always. The June MLB betting preview episode from RJ Bell's Dream Podcast, hosted by Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner, covers 13 games with available lines, diving into team form, pitching matchups, and betting leans. Missing initially were lines for Dodgers-Rockies and Rangers-Orioles, though the latter appeared late in the episode. They open noting Munaf's bounce-back 5–1 week and Griffin chasing closely behind in season-long picks. The first matchup—Blue Jays vs. Guardians—features even odds. Griffin sees value in whoever becomes the underdog. Munaf highlights Logan Allen's stark ERA split: 6.18 in day games, 2.79 at night. The A's-Tigers game sees Tigers favored at -275. Griffin critiques the price despite Skubal's Cy Young form. Munaf adds that Tigers are 20–5 straight up in series openers and 11–1 at home. Yankees vs. Reds features rookie Chase Burns in his debut against Carlos Rodon. Griffin notes the Yankees are built better for the park, while Munaf explains Rodon's recent regression—12 ER in June compared to 5 in May. Braves-Mets has Strider returning, though Griffin questions his sharpness. Munaf notes Monteas' poor historical outings vs. the Braves and leans Strider, citing a recent quality start against the Mets. In D-backs vs. White Sox, Ryan Nelson's 1.87 ERA at night vs. 10.95 in the day impresses Munaf, while Griffin mocks the Sox as a “Double-A team.” For Pirates-Brewers, Peralta is dominant at home (6–1 SU), prompting a team total under lean from Munaf. Griffin applauds Milwaukee's base-stealing and efficiency. Mariners-Twins rematch Castillo vs. Paddack: both had elite starts earlier this month. Munaf likes the under (8.5), while Griffin again hails Cal Raleigh's ("Big Dumper") surge. Rays-Royals sees Griffin supporting Bubich, especially given Tampa's recent inconsistency. Munaf notes Taj Bradley's 13 ER in two starts. Cubs-Cardinals analysis finds Griffin liking STL as a home dog, with Munaf highlighting McGreevy's sub-1.00 WHIP and 2–1 team record in his starts. In Phillies-Astros, both agree Suarez and Valdez are elite. Munaf reveals Valdez's 6–1 under trend at home, while Suarez is 3–0–1 to the under on the road. Under 7.5 is Munaf's best bet. Red Sox vs. Angels pits Crochet's 2.20 ERA and 125 Ks against inconsistent Tyler Anderson. Griffin leans Angels as a value play; Munaf backs Boston's run line. Nationals-Padres gets light treatment—Williams has a 5.54 ERA and Padres are favored. Munaf suggests SD's first-five team total over. Giants-Marlins rounds out the card with Verlander's return. Griffin hesitates to back either starter but leans under unless conditions are hot. Munaf prefers the Giants, questioning Miami's bullpen. A late line appears for Rangers-Orioles. Griffin picks Baltimore ML (-130) as his best bet, citing Charlie Morton's improved form and Texas' offensive struggles. Munaf agrees, referencing Morton's 6 IP, 2 ER outing vs. TEX last year. The episode concludes with Griffin plugging a promo code (RBI20) for discounted betting picks access and teasing more comedic yet informative breakdowns through summer.
