MLB pitcher Nick Martinez describes himself as 'hard to kill.' In this episode of Keep Swinging with Matt Stucko, you'll learn the meaning behind that phrase and everything about his remarkable journey from the collegiate to professional level, including a stop in Japan to play baseball. The right hander is close friends with past Keep Swinging guest Eddy Alvarez, who is only the sixth athlete in Olympic history to medal in both the Summer and Winter Olympics.  In 2021, the duo played on Team USA. Martinez played a key role in that tournament that led to a silver medal. Please share, rate and review the show if you get any value from it to help support Keep Swinging!

On this episode of Slip The Jab, a listener writing in calling us "cringe bootlickers" sparks a heart to heart about when Ian wanted Lino to add a disclaimer to the show. An hour in we get to fight talk and start by recapping Tsarukyan def. Dariush, the crazy late stoppage in the Bobby 'King' Green fight, and the rest of the highlights of UFC Austin. We discuss Chandler thinking Conor is trying to wait him out, what fights we think should be on UFC 300, which fight should be the main event if the UFC puts Conor on 300 with a title fight, and Tom Aspinall wanting the UFC to strip Jon Jones. We recap Mike Perry def. Eddy Alvarez at BKFC 56, his hilarious interview saying he wants to stuff Alvarez "like a twinky", why the BKFC and UFC should get rid of the PPV model, and what they can do to make up for lost revenue. Lino goes on a quick rant about Jay-Z being the most overrated rapper of all time and being proud that Ian's son's favorite rapper is Eminem, Ian's all over the place and can't focus cause he started the bone broth fast from hell, and give our Slip Picks and Ianalysis for UFC Vegas 83; Yadong Song vs. Chris Gutierrez. In the current events we discuss Jamahal Hill getting arrested, considering putting an offer in to buy Conor's new baby, and end with our Post Fight song of the Week.  Support the showALSO AVAILABLE ON:Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/STJSpotifyApple Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/STJApplePodcastsFOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Twitter: https://twitter.com/slipthejabpodSponsored by NuKine WellnessUse code SLIPSTER20 for 20% OFF

Eddy Alvarez and David Price could both be real contributors for the Los Angeles Dodgers this year, albeit in different ways. We talk about Alvarez's path to the Dodgers and his potential to play a role later this season, and then we discuss how Price wasn't as bad as we thought last year and the role(s) he could fill on this team. And finally, we discuss Dave Roberts' comments that Caleb Ferguson won't be on the Opening Day roster but that 16 (!!!) other pitchers might be, and what that might mean for guys like Edwin Rios, Gavin Lux, Jake Lamb, and Kevin Pillar.

Anzoátegui is the new “adorable.” Pottymouth's favorite word to say not only comes up in our international baseball segment, but sneaks its way in to this week's boyfriend picks for the Tigers and the Cubs! We begin and end with some winter heartwarmers of Minor League owners and hockey fans changing lives for the better, and we break those warm hearts a little in between.The Iowa Cubs sold to Endeavor and then surprised all of their full-time staff with a share in the profits. Kyle Seager goes out on top, and Eddy Alvarez skates over to the Dodgers. Omar Vizquel misrepresents divorce as justice and his HoF votes continue to plummet. Pottymouth finds another mom to drink (and have a pretzel) with in her Tigers pick of Akil Baddoo. Patti goes ex-Red with Gold Glove good guy and hippo namesake Tucker Barnhart. “La Balita,” Rafael Ortega, takes Pottymouth's Cubs spot while Patti gets to claim Nick Madrigal, who was almost last year's White Sox pick. Genevieve Beacom breaks an Australian baseball barrier as she signs on as a development player with the Melbourne Aces. It's playoff time all over winter ball so Pottymouth helps you read the Spanish language scorecards. A Kraken fan saves the life of a Canucks coach with one observation, and both teams are now helping her with her med school dream. We say “wire fraud,” “Yabba Dab Baddoo,” and “hippo needed a date.”Get boosted, fight the man, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Dodgers signed infielder Eddy Alvarez to presumably a minor-league deal. Does he help the team or is he simply a depth play?

Welcome to episode 11 of The Ice Skating Podcast – a Tokyo 2020 special! As the Games get underway in Japan, we've got two exclusive interviews. The first is with the remarkable Eddy Alvarez. Short Track speed skating fans will remember Eddy as one of the USA's finest racers at Sochi 2014, where he picked up a relay silver medal. Now, Eddy has made it to Tokyo 2020 as part of the American baseball team. He can join a very exclusive group of people to have medalled at both the Winter and Summer Games. We've also got a great chat with French Figure Skater Kevin Aymoz – who could have been a professional gymnast, had he not chosen the ice. Kevin reflects on what he loves about both sports, and looks ahead to Beijing 2022. The Ice Skating Podcast is hosted by Luke Norman and Nick Moore every fortnight. 

Eddy Alvarez 上星期四抵達東京，作爲美國棒球隊的一個成員，參加奧運會。今年31嵗的Alvarez同時還是美國隊在開幕式入場時的舉旗手之一。他有非常奇特的背景。他在2014年俄羅斯索契冬季奧運會中，參加的是冰上速滑比賽，並拿下了5千米短程的銀牌。 作爲居住在佛羅里達的古巴移民後裔，他有幸成爲冬季奧運史上第一個古巴裔美國男性運動員參加比賽。更多詳細文字和圖片内容請進入《今日話題》Facebook 臉書專頁：https://www.facebook.com/1300todaystopic/

On LGHL's Play Like a Girl podcast, Meredith Hein and Kelsey Trainor talk everything from Ohio State football to all the happenings in the sports world today. After being delayed for a very long year, the 2021 Tokyo Olympics are here at long last. That's why, on this week's edition of the pod, Meredith and Megan talked all things Olympics. ICYMI, the Opening Ceremonies are scheduled for this Friday, and Team USA just announced that hoops great Sue Bird and baseball player/speed skater (you read that right) Eddy Alvarez will be flag bearers. Great choices all-around (get it? Because of gymnastics?) The pair also discussed the USWNT's surprising loss to Sweden in their first Olympic game, snapping a 44-game unbeaten streak. On a more positive note, they got into Team USA softball, and the team of newcomers and veterans who are coming together to bring home a gold after the sport was absent for two-straight Olympic Games.  But because it's this podcast, Megan and Meredith also talked Buckeyes in the Olympics — including Adelaide Aquilla, the walk-on-turned-Olympian shot putter, and all-time wrestling great Kyle Snyder.  Contact Megan Husslein Twitter: @meganhusslein Contact Meredith Hein Twitter: @MeredithHein Learn more about your ad choices.

By now, it's likely that you have seen some sort of political infographic on social media. It has a pastel background, a few words in a bolded font and claims to break down a political issue in just a few sliding pictures. It's effective spread of information often comes at the cost of reliability and truthfulness. So, is getting our news and information from social media a net good? We sit down with infographic creator Teddy Alvarez-Nissen to understand the process behind infographics and the way to treat them going forward.

We caught up with Walter Alvarez, 70, last Friday to talk about his son's first week in the major leagues.

ETS is back to react to Sunday's All-Star Futures Game in Cleveland (1:50). The Marlins earned three selections: right-hander Sixto Sánchez, second baseman Isan Díaz and outfielder Monte Harrison (sidelined with wrist injury). Ethan makes the compelling case that Díaz is ready for a big league call-up now (11:30). The 2019-20 international signing period opened last Tuesday (21:15) with the Fish scooping up 11 amateur players from a handful of countries. More recent standouts in this farm system include outfielder Milton Smith II, left-hander Trevor Rogers and unhittable rookie Jordan Yamamoto (34:45).  Ian selects Chris Vallimont (45:40) and Eddy Alvarez (46:30) for his pitcher and hitter of the week awards. Shortstop Nasim Nuñez and outfielder Víctor Mesa Jr. are quickly developing great chemistry with one another in the Gulf Coast League (49:00), while speedy Wright State product J.D.

Eddy Alvarez is an American short track speed skater who represented the United States at the 2014 Winter Olympics.  That isn't Eddy's only accomplishment.  He's also a professional baseball player for The Birmingham Barons, a minor league affiliate for the Chicago White Sox. He took to roller skating at the age of 5 and began speed skating at 7 years old.  In high school, Alvarez took a break from skating to focus on his love for baseball which earned him a college scholarship.  Now he's able to live out both his dreams, an Olympic Speed Skater and a Professional Baseball Player.
