On today's episode, we tackled the “Hall of Sentimentality” in sports—debating whether Hall of Fame induction should be about numbers, legacy, or pure nostalgia. I broke down why legends like Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, and Don Mattingly are getting another shot at Cooperstown and questioned if baseball's sentimental streak is watering down greatness or righting old wrongs. Plus, we dove into the goaltending crisis in the NHL and kicked off a brand new “what if” segment—starting with, what if Derek Jeter never became a Yankee?

Was this the greatest World Series of all time? What lessons can the Phillies take away from the Dodgers and Blue Jays? What should the Phillies do this off-season? On Episode 1029 of Hittin' Season, from WHYY, John Stolnis of The Good Phight is joined by The Athletic's Tyler Kepner to discuss all those items. Plus, the latest news on qualifying offers to two key Phils free agents, a minor league outfielder signing, and Don Mattingly to the Phillies?

SEASON 4 EPISODE 31: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: Do you want to hear the real lesson of this week’s Democratic landslide? Mamdani ran on your money issues and that Trump equals death. Sherrill ran on your money issues and that Trump equals death. Spanberger ran on your money issues and that Trump equals death. Prop 50 won on your money issues and that Trump equals death. Hey, you can do both at the same time! Who knew? Not difficult. Easy to remember. Useful on all occasions. Worked in New York, where they elected a socialist when only a quarter of the voters say they are socialists. Worked in Virginia, where they elected as governor an ex-congresswoman born in Jersey. Worked in Jersey, where they elected as a governor an ex-congresswoman born in Virginia. Money Issues, and Trump Equals Death. Useful on all occasions. It’s a floor wax AND a dessert topping. Of course the context is just as much fun as the lesson. That's becauseTrump not only doesn’t realize he got the S kicked out of him, but he doesn’t realize he’s already forced himself to both end the government shutdown and lose the government shutdown. “Trump wasn’t on the ballot,” Trump screamed. “And ‘Shutdown’… were the two reasons that Republicans lost elections...” Ah, poor Trump. Metaphorically, Trump not only was on the ballot - every ballot but he was on the ballot in the worst possible way. Everybody could vote no on him, but it was almost impossible to vote YES. The lame duck politician’s worst nightmare. And right now no duck is lamer than Trump. Democrats: run on your money issues and that Trump equals death. It’s a floor wax and a dessert topping! ALSO: No, I am not going to sanewash Dick Cheney, even after his passing. Yes, at the end, when it was loyalty to the country or Trump he chose the country and it's good to finish strong. But I will still remember him for that 9/11-Iraq exploitation thing. And I am still proud that - as you'll hear - I pissed him off enough as Vice President for him to publicly clap back. B-Block (30:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Roger Stone, who helped advance the deplorable Laura Loomer, is now shocked she's deplorable. Similarly Ben Shapiro, who helped sell Tucker Carlson's evil to the far right, is now shocked he's evil. And I-Never-Winsome Earle-Sears and scabby Fox host Charlie Hurt think Barack Obama not voting for her when he voted for Kamala Harris is hypocritical (so...Earle-Sears voted for Kamala, and Hurt voted for Spanberger?) C-Block (40:30) SPORTSBALLCENTER: You probably aren't interested in my thoughts on the latest new selection committee and the latest eight nominees for baseball's Hall of Fame (though I have many of them). But you may be entertained by the sagas of the previous selection committees and the legend of how the ex-players on them used to cast "courtesy votes" for their old buddies and one year Ted Williams and the others screwed up and accidentally cast way too many of them for a not-so-Hall-of-Famish catcher named Rick Ferrell and he actually got elected.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ben and Paul kick off the 7am hour with an update from the San DIego State football program who, after some pressure from around the city, announced some lower ticket prices with a new promotion for the game against Boise State where fans can purchase 2 tickets for $40! Then we get to "Don't (And DO) Do This" before the guys react to some news in Major League Baseball that Don Mattingly is leaving his job as bench coach for the Blue Jays, but is NOT retiring... Could he be in talks with the Padres? Listen here!

Francisco Rojas is back for another Phillies Today. On this show, he talks about the Phils signing an outfielder that could be a low-risk, high reward type of player. Also, Francisco discusses the potential of Don Mattingly being hired as the new bench coach. Lastly, are the Dodgers an actual rival to the Phillies?

BT & Sal are joined by former New York Rangers legend Henrik Lundqvist and Dr. Jonathan Salik to raise urgent awareness about Recurrent Pericarditis (RP), a chronic and often misdiagnosed heart disease. Lundqvist details how RP forced his retirement following open-heart surgery, calling the condition a major "life disrupted." The King also weighs in on the current Rangers squad, addressing their embarrassing zero-goal start at home and reflecting on the frustration of his own career, where he often carried deficient offensive teams. The hosts conclude by placing Lundqvist on New York's "Mount Rushmore of Heartbreak," alongside greats like Patrick Ewing and Don Mattingly—legends revered for their greatness but lacking a championship ring.

BT & Sal unleash a torrent of hot takes on the Mets' offseason, issuing a DH-or-Divorce ultimatum for Pete Alonso and arguing that his contract impasse cannot hold up a necessary defensive overhaul. They discuss a potential $150M offer contingent on Pete's transition to a primary DH role. The debate transitions to a poignant interview with Henrik Lundqvist, who shares the emotional "turn-around" that led to his retirement after a battle with recurrent pericarditis. The show hits a fiery peak when Sal learns BT completely missed an invitation to A-Rod's HBO premiere—a personal and professional "ball drop" that sparks a frantic media damage control plan. Plus, the guys dive into the surprising news of Gremlins 3, debate a potential move of Don Mattingly to the Phillies, and clash over the future of the Knicks with the Karl-Anthony Towns trade.

BT & Sal dissect the emotional fallout of the World Series, focusing intensely on the Toronto Blue Jays' devastating loss after getting so close. BT emphatically states he'd "rather not even get there" than suffer a crushing defeat—like the one the Blue Jays did, or the infamous Falcons Super Bowl collapse—arguing that reaching the precipice only to have the championship snatched away leads to a deep, unrecoverable pain for fans of long-suffering franchises. Sal counters, highlighting the "month of memories" and the joy of the run, but concedes the loss was "soul-crushing." The hosts analyze the "unfathomably unacceptable" fundamental baseball mistake—a poor secondary lead costing the final out—that sealed Toronto's fate. They also touch upon the emotional impact of manager Don Mattingly's presumed retirement after the loss.

BT & Sal ignite the mic, dissecting the Contemporary Baseball Era Hall of Fame Ballot, making their fiery picks and discussing the fate of controversial legends like Bonds and Clemens, alongside fan favorites Don Mattingly, Dale Murphy, and Jeff Kent. The debate shifts to the Giants' season of total doom, with the hosts declaring it's "over" for Brian Daboll and Joe Schoen. They argue the organization must undergo a "clean house" reboot, keep Jaxson Dart a "freeze all assets" trade deadline mandate, and hire an experienced head coach, contrasting the mess with Sean Payton's quick Denver turnaround. Finally, they dive into the urgent need to "save Dart" from his own reckless, though admired, style of play and analyze Aaron Glenn's contentious media strategy, concluding that only wins will validate his hard-line approach.

BT & Sal dive into the highly anticipated Contemporary Baseball Era Player Ballot for the Hall of Fame Class of 2026, dropping fiery first-instinct votes on names like Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Gary Sheffield, and Dale Murphy. The central focus is on Don Mattingly, as the hosts debate whether his brilliant-but-brief peak, including an MVP and a near-miss MVP season, should finally secure his plaque, comparing his case to the two-time MVP Dale Murphy. They dissect the arguments for Mattingly and other controversial figures, acknowledging that for some, this ballot could be their final chance at induction.

Eduardo Perez and Buster take a Clown Stroll after the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-1 win over the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 2 of the World Series. They discuss Yoshinobu Yamamoto's complete game mastery, why both teams should be feeling good going into Game 3, if the Blue Jays let the Dodgers off the hook in the first inning, what makes Yamamoto so hard to hit, how Dave Roberts should handle the bullpen in Game 3, and what Blue Jay fans are saying on the street.

 Ellen Adair and Eric Gilde discuss the 2001 movie "Hardball." They introduce the film (1:34), with an overview of the story, the cast, and filmmakers, and review the 20-80 baseball scouting grades for rating the film, with a new metaphor (8:14). In Amount of Baseball (17:50), the scouts initially disagree, but slightly convince each other. Ellen has two potential player comps. Baseball Accuracy (25:26) compares this Little League play to other films, with just a couple of editorial / geographical issues. Ellen defends Frank Thomas's honor and digs in on Sammy Sosa's consecutive homers, and records by Ken Griffey Jr, Don Mattingly, and Kevin Mench. That is not Wrigley. Those are not NBA games. Luis Garcia's dance step is considered. Storytelling (39:23) is a real challenge, when the entire inveterate gambler storyline does not work. Plus, white savior problems, a very confusing moral, and a complete lack of necessary exposition. There are so many unanswered questions. How does he earn their trust? Why does G-Baby have to die? Eulogy issues, uniform issues. At long last, the Score Tool (1:24:13) is only a partial respite, with some small problems of its own. They consider some of the soundtrack songs, including "Ghetto," "Hardball," "Big Poppa," "Where the Party At," and R. Kelly. Acting (1:30:21) considers the ceiling and floor of a slightly mis-cast Keanu Reeves. Diane Lane was trying, John Hawkes had an impossible task, D.B. Sweeney deserves better. Young actors Michael B. Jordan, Bryan Hearne, Julian Griffith, and DeWayne Warren almost save the movie. Neither Delightfulness of Catcher (1:39:26) or Delightfulness of Announcer (1:40:27) offer much. In Lack of Misogyny (1:41:00), they discuss the insipidity of the lame romantic subplot. No spoilers on the following segments: Yes or No (1:45:06), Six Degrees of Baseball (1:48:56), Favorite Moment (1:50:43) Least Favorite Moment (1:53:00), Scene We Would Have Liked to See (1:54:54), Dreamiest Player (1:56:50), Favorite Performance (1:57:09), and Next Time (2:00:32).  Join Our Discord & Support The Show: PL+ | PL Pro - Get 15% off Yearly with code PODCASTProud member of the Pitcher List Fantasy Baseball Podcast Network Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

BT & Sal ignite the airwaves with a fiery breakdown of Jets coach Aaron Glenn's bizarre decision to "double down" on not naming a starting quarterback for Week 8—is it power-flexing or pure desperation? The conversation pivots as BT has a massive change of heart, "flipping the script" on his dismissal of Don Mattingly's World Series aspirations with the Blue Jays. Finally, Nick Kostos joins the show to share his best NFL Week 8 bets, including taking the Carolina Panthers +7.5 against the Bills and his read on the Cowboys vs. Broncos matchup. The crew also touches on the ongoing NBA gambling scandal and Sauce Gardner's play.

The one to the north. The World Series. The two baseball writers discuss whether the Los Angeles Dodgers, who may not be ruining baseball, might just be ruining the National League. The Dodgers are playing for their ninth World Series championship -- a total that would tie them with the Boston Red Sox and Nomadic Athletics. It would also put them three titles shy of leapfrogging the Cardinals' historic trademark trait and overtaking them as the pre-eminent National League team when it comes to trophies. Author of "The Grandest Stage: A History of the World Series," Kepner offers perspective on the Dodgers' chances while also detailing what this World Series means to Don Mattingly and how the Blue Jays can overtake the favorites from Hollywood. There is a story about an autographed baseball, too. To quote Kepner: "Cue that jaunty music." Kepner joins the Best Podcast in Baseball from Toronto, where he's covering the World Series as a senior writer for The Athletic and baseball writer for the New York Times. In its 13th season as one of the first and most widely heard podcasts on baseball and the Cardinals, the Best Podcast in Baseball has reached a new season-high with 30 episodes. Each episode is sponsored weekly by Closets by Design of St. Louis, is a production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and lead baseball writer Derrick Goold.

Guests: Max Scherzer, John Schneider, Jose Bautista      As we await Friday night's opener of the World Series, the first in Toronto in over three decades, we look back at the post-game party after the Blue Jays thrilling win in Game 7 of the American League championship series Monday night.   Max Scherzer, never at a loss for energy, nearly blows the decibel meter on our system as he raves about the team he chose because, as he said in January, he wanted to win the World Series, and about his fellow elder statesmen, George Springer, Chris Bassitt and Kevin Gausman (each one at least five years his junior).   John Schneider, in his third full season as Jays' manager but his 24th year in the organization, wells up as he talks about coaches Don Mattingly, Pete Walker and DeMarlo Hale, and wishes the Seattle Mariners a good winter vacation. And a raspy-voiced Jose Bautista joins us to talk about witnessing Springer's magical home run, as so many of us witnessed his a decade ago. All that plus the mailbag at deepleftfield@thestar.ca!

BT & Sal's Call of the Day heats up with legendary Yankees broadcaster Suzyn Waldman! Suzyn brings the fire, weighing in on the debate over Jasson Dominguez's position (is he a center fielder or a DH?) and the mounting issue of the Yankees' abundance of designated hitters. The conversation also briefly touches on the possibility of a Don Mattingly return and the ongoing animosity toward Brian Cashman. Suzyn's passion for the pinstripes is on full, fiery display!

BT and Sal break down the Yankees' ferocious comeback and the Blue Jays' meltdown in their ALDS series, ignited by Toronto's "awful defense" and mental mistakes. They dissect how the Blue Jays essentially "gift-wrapped" a critical victory to New York, shifting the series momentum despite the Yanks still trailing 2-1. The hosts dive into the "amazing" atmosphere at Yankee Stadium, the pressure on Toronto's pitching (including the anointing of 'U Savage'), the potential for the Yankees to win the series, and the intense, nonstop energy of a major New York sports weekend. The discussion also touches on the standard for Yankee legends like Aaron Judge vs. Don Mattingly in the post-dynasty era.

Many criticized Sean Payton for abandoning the run game early on in the win vs. the Titans, so Payton discussed the run-pass ratio, saying he has to be better in that department. Although the Broncos rushed for 151 yards, did Denver really run the ball effectively throughout the game? The Broncos defense was lights out, only allowing 133 total yards and 7 first downs, so why wasn't the historic defensive performance talked about more?

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker welcome in Blue Jays bench coach Don Mattingly (0:51) to chat about the success throughout their lineup this season, their home versus road performances, whether he sees their hitting approach translating well into the postseason, Addison Barger's evolution in his bat skills, Vlad Jr.'s 2025, and how John Schneider has navigated managing.

On Sports on a Sunday Morning, Tom Ackerman is joined by Chief Robert Tracy to discuss public safety around major St. Louis sporting events, from Cardinals games at Busch Stadium to Blues hockey, STL City SC at CITYPARK, and Battlehawks football at The Dome. Chief Tracy highlights strategies to reduce crime, the importance of keeping fans safe, and his experiences policing at iconic venues like Yankee Stadium and Madison Square Garden. He also shares thoughts on New York Yankees great Don Mattingly, today's Yankees lineup against the Cardinals, and how teamwork on and off the field drives success.

On the latest "Power Up!", BT and Sal unveiled their top five people they'd most want to golf with. The guys shared some unexpected choices, including family members, favorite athletes, and iconic comedians, with a few of their selections even overlapping. They delved into the reasons behind each pick, from Billy Joel's musical genius and Adam Sandler's comedic relief to the sheer competitiveness of athletes like Don Mattingly and Matt Ryan. The conversation highlighted a diverse mix of personalities, proving that the perfect golf partner isn't always the best player but the one who can make the day most memorable.

BT and Sal ignite a passionate debate about the Baseball Hall of Fame, tearing into what they see as flawed induction criteria. While reminiscing about the undeniable greatness of Ryne Sandberg and lamenting his illness, the conversation quickly turns to more controversial inductions like CC Sabathia, with BT strongly arguing against his Hall of Fame worthiness, particularly as a first-ballot choice. They compare "compiler" careers to shorter, dominant ones, sparking a fiery discussion on whether sustained excellence or peak performance should be more valued for a Cooperstown plaque, bringing up names like Don Mattingly, David Cone, Andy Pettitte, and even the "Fernando Mania" of Valenzuela. The segment underscores their frustration with a Hall of Fame they believe is becoming increasingly "saturated" and inconsistent in its inductions.

In this emotional and wide-ranging conversation, Mets legend and Hall of Fame manager Joe Torre sits down with Jay Horwitz to reflect on his decades in baseball—and the people who shaped it. Torre opens up about managing David Wright in the WBC, his thoughts on Wright's Hall of Fame case, and memories of Don Mattingly, Tom Seaver, and Gil Hodges. He also shares deeply personal stories about his childhood, revealing how his father's abuse inspired the founding of his Safe At Home Foundation, which has helped thousands of children break the cycle of domestic violence. From managing the Mets to building a dynasty with the Yankees, to humorous tales with Arthur Richmond and commercials with Willie Randolph and Bobby Valentine, this is Joe Torre like you've never heard him.

Brandon Tierney delivers a passionate segment covering two contrasting events: the well-deserved retirement of David Wright's number by the Mets, a moment Tierney deeply appreciates, and his own fiery ejection from his son's 10U baseball game. Tierney praises Wright as the epitome of a New York athlete, a true "baseball player" who embodied passion and respect for the game, drawing parallels to legends like Derek Jeter and even Don Mattingly in character despite injury setbacks. He then vividly recounts his first-ever ejection from a youth game, framing it as a "technicality" and passionately defending his right to advocate for his team, all while lamenting the "misinformation" surrounding the incident. This dual narrative highlights the intense emotions Tierney brings to both professional sports analysis and personal coaching.

Guests: Phillies closer Jordan Romano, Blue Jays bench coach Don Mattingly and his son, Phillies general manager Preston Mattingly   The Blue Jays chose not to tender a contract to homegrown closer Jordan Romano, who is third on their all-time saves list, this winter, and he was snapped up by Philadelphia pretty quickly. He came back to Toronto and got walked off by old buddy Alejandro Kirk. We talked to Romano after that game.   And with fathers' day weekend upon us, we talk to father-son Mattinglys - Blue Jays bench coach Don and his son Preston, who grew up to run the Phillies.

Brian Hunt, Executive Producer of Bronx Zoo '90: Crime, Chaos and Baseball, the astonishing true story of the 1990 New York Yankees, chronicling the team at a crossroads in their storied history. The season went on record as one of the worst and was made even more infamous by the drama that ensued off the field. Based on a series of articles from New York Post columnist Joel Sherman, the docuseries covers team owner George Steinbrenner's removal from baseball for trying to buy information on Dave Winfield from a notorious gambler. Adding to the chaos, beloved team captain Don Mattingly was caught in a contentious contract dispute, a top free agent signee went missing, rookie Deion Sanders wavered between two sports and a controversial outfielder pursued a relationship with a local high school girl. Despite it all, the 1990 Yankees laid the groundwork for one of the greatest dynasties in sports history.
