Podcast appearances and mentions of Gerrit Cole

More Post-Dispatch podcasts.  Please consider subscribing. There is no bumper sticker, no buzzy campaign slogan that captures the challenge facing Major League Baseball and its 30 clubs as economic disparity grows and the expiration of the Collective Bargaining Agreement arrives. A complex issue requires a complex solution. Or does it? A brief conversation about the Cardinals' spending strategy and past history with free agency, based on research done for The Write Fielder newsletter, spirals into a much larger debate between Best Podcast in Baseball host Derrick Goold and guest Kevin Wheeler, of KMOX/104.1 FM. After detailing how the Cardinals got into their current predicament, the questions that follow are two-fold: Do the Cardinals need to change their approach to free agency to return to contention, and does MLB need to change its economic structure for the Cardinals to have a new approach to free agency. The debate ignites from there. Wheeler makes a compelling case for how the Cardinals needed to "swim in deeper waters" for free agency and a more conservative approach caught up with them. He adds that a team now focused on development needs to produce its own stars. Goold counters by wondering what World Series contenders have developed their star and not had to outfit the roster with free-agent moves to complete the championship-caliber roster. The Yankees may have Aaron Judge, and they used prospects to trade for Juan Soto once, but they also signed Gerrit Cole. The Kansas City Royals have a homegrown, bona fide star in Bobby Witt Jr. But what's next? That's where the economics of the game enter the conversation and Wheeler's stance that the "big boys" need to play ball for the betterment of the game, and if that means taking less or receiving a smaller cut to spur and require the spending of the smaller markets so be it. Goold makes a suggestion for pulling that off that Wheeler contends would be difficult to sell to fans who what the tangible bumper sticker, not the boring details of how it gets done. Eventually they agree on one. It's the TV deal. Wheeler's arguments that hinge on a comparison to the NBA and its salary cap format require there to be a much larger national TV deal, one closer to what the NBA has. And that is the crux of this. Once that's in place then negotiations about a salarly floor, shared revenue, and an international draft to better balance talent coming from abroad are all more tangible because the largest issue -- the growing gulch between teams -- has been bridged. 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.

Joe Ryan provides an excellent WHIP base in category leagues. Dylan Cease should bounce back in Toronto. When might we see Gerrit Cole in 2026? Ranger Suarez has been rock-solid the past two seasons. Sandy Alcantara was so back in the second half!

BT and Sal are bracing for a chaotic MLB Winter Meetings, with Sal expecting a "blockbuster blitz" of trades and signings. The hosts recall the frenzy of Juan Soto's massive signing from a previous year that broke right at the start of the meetings. The conversation quickly pivots to the Yankees, where Sal argues against the conventional wisdom of needing an entire starting rotation overhaul. He strongly asserts the Yankees are "deficient" in position players, not pitching, and should instead strengthen their existing strength to create a "superpower" rotation with the returns of Gerrit Cole and Cam Schlittler. Tierney agrees, saying the Yankees must strengthen what they're already good at, since they can't match rivals like the Dodgers or Blue Jays in other areas. The segment sets the stage for a dramatic week of hot stove action.

Show Open: Danielle says the Yankees can't waste any more time on Aaron Judge and Gerrit Cole's primes and MUST go ALL-IN this offseason, including a Paul Skenes trade. She fears they will not.

BT & Sal unleash a fiery critique on the Detroit Tigers' front office for considering waiting until the trade deadline to move ace Tarik Skubal. Sal calls the idea "idiotic" and argues Skubal's value will "never be as good as it is right now" due to the high risk of injury (citing Gerrit Cole) and the loss of team control. He demands the exec who floated the idea be fired for being a "moron." The hosts pivot to a bold Mets trade scenario: acquiring elite talent like Gold Glovers Ezequiel Tovar and Brenton Doyle from the Rockies by taking on the catastrophic contract of Kris Bryant (still owed nearly $90 million). BT shuts down the idea after discovering Doyle's alarmingly low on-base percentage, but the debate emphasizes the Mets' need to be "very creative" on the trade front.

BT and Sal unleash a fiery critique of the Yankees' front office after Trent Grisham shocked the industry by accepting the Qualifying Offer (QO) for $22 million, a move both hosts agree was a colossal misread by the team driven by the lure of a compensatory draft pick. BT argues the QO acceptance is the "first potential domino to a horrendous offseason," fearing the added salary and player complexity will make the Yankees reluctant to pursue top targets like Cody Bellinger and Kyle Tucker. Sal pushes back, insisting the Yankees can (and must) absorb the cost and still be aggressive, specifically needing to trade prospects like Dominguez or Jones for an elite piece like Steven Kwan to truly improve. The hosts also break down the financial impact and player fit, with the conversation focusing on the Yankees' urgent need for a right-handed bat (like Alex Bregman) and the danger of running back the same "not-a-championship-team" roster. Ultimately, they agree that if the QO prevents the necessary aggressive moves, it signals a failure to adapt as Aaron Judge and Gerrit Cole's competitive window shrinks.

The Yankees offseason is off to a fiery start as Trent Grisham accepts the $22 million Qualifying Offer, a move Sal Licata sees as the "domino" leading to a disastrous offseason. Sal fears the Yankees are "banking on rolling this back" with a largely unchanged roster, relying solely on Gerrit Cole's return and growth from underperforming young players like Volpe and Dominguez. BT & Sal debate whether the $22 million for a defensive specialist who had an outlier offensive year will "dissuade" the Yankees from going "all in" on high-impact upgrades like Cody Bellinger or Steven Kwan. Callers join the fray, calling Cashman out for getting "caught with his pants down" and questioning the Yankees' continued reliance on unproven prospects rather than making aggressive moves to finally win a World Series.

BT and Sal unleash a fiery critique of the Yankees' off-season strategy, arguing that Trent Grisham's acceptance of the $22 million qualifying offer is the first "domino that dooms" their plan to "roll back" the same deficient roster. Sal fears Cashman will use Gerrit Cole's return as an excuse not to make necessary, aggressive moves for players like Kwan or Tucker, while callers slam the GM for hoarding "penny stocks" prospects like Spencer Jones and Dominguez. They argue that the young core has failed to develop and the team needs an "all-in" structural overhaul. The conversation shifts to the Giants, where a caller demands that Joe Schoen must go immediately following the team's embarrassing season. BT and Sal push back on the timing, arguing that the season is lost and the organization's focus must remain on the sensitive health issues of ownership, suggesting that while Schoen should be next to go, the action will and should wait until the end of the year.

BT & Sal brace for the Yankees' year-end press conference, laying out the fiery demands they have for Brian Cashman and Aaron Boone. They call out the GM to address the elephant in the room: roster construction and the team's annual failure to chase "Championship number 28." The hosts insist Cashman must stop doubling down on young players and be transparent about the team's future, especially regarding Volpe's regression. They also press for an update on Gerrit Cole's health and a clear answer on payroll and signing big-name free agents. The conversation also briefly touches on the overreaction to Jets QB Justin Fields' struggles and the Giants' decision on extending Brian Daboll and Jaxson Dart, with Sal arguing there's no rush for an extension when "who's knocking down Brian Daboll's door?"

BT and Sal tear into the Yankees' year-end press conferences, noting Brian Cashman's uncharacteristically "tired" and uncombative demeanor, suggesting he's worn out by the long run of disappointment. The bigger shock is the massive injury toll: Anthony Volpe (shoulder surgery), Carlos Rodón (procedure), and Gerrit Cole (on target, but likely not ready for Opening Day), clouding the offseason plans. The hosts debate Cashman's defense of Volpe's performance and his future, seeing a "first flinch" of self-doubt. They conclude that the Yankees' standard has been utterly decimated because, without any repercussions for years of post-2009 failure, "what is the standard?" Hal Steinbrenner is called out for his silence and for accepting a culture where a 94-win team can get "outclassed and mopped" by the Blue Jays.

BT & Sal gear up for the Yankees' year-end press conference by introducing "Boone & Cashman Press Conference Bingo"! The hosts predict the obligatory buzzwords—"94 Games," "Volpe," "Controllability," "Crapshoot"—while demanding the GM address the team's failed roster construction and stop deflecting with his pitching development success. They debate whether Cashman will fire back at Derek Jeter and A-Rod and reveal what they absolutely need to hear about the future of the team, Gerrit Cole's health, and potential payroll spending. The show also touches on the Giants' "big game hunting" for a receiver, the absurdity of hiring coaches based on team loyalty, and a fiery discussion on whether the NFL is fixed, especially with calls favoring the Chiefs. It all kicks off with Hoff's musical theme: "Guardians of the Galaxy."

BT and Sal celebrated the Yankees' routine return to the postseason, acknowledging it's an accomplishment that's often taken for granted in New York. Despite losing Gerrit Cole and Juan Soto, and overcoming early-season struggles like Devin Williams' high ERA, the team pivoted successfully with players like Trent Grisham, Ben Rice, and a stellar bullpen rebuilt at the deadline. The hosts agreed that while the Yankees are held to an impossibly high standard and have flaws, their consistent ability to be in the hunt—and potentially win the division—is something all fans should appreciate, especially compared to the struggles of other local teams. The focus now shifts to whether this flawed, yet dangerous, team can finally cap off a season with a World Series title.

BT and Sal's discussion rages over the Yankees' recent loss, which has all but ended their chances of winning the AL East. Sal is furious, believing the Yankees underachieved and let a weaker Toronto Blue Jays team run away with the division, making their postseason path much more difficult. He argues that with the Yankees' standard, winning the division is a must, and their failure to do so is a "disappointing regular season." BT, however, takes a more nuanced view, pointing to injuries to key players like Gerrit Cole and Louis Hill as reasons for the team's struggles, and maintains that just making the playoffs is a significant accomplishment given the circumstances. He believes the "get in and anything can happen" mentality of the modern MLB postseason makes winning the division less important. The two hosts clash on whether the Yankees' performance is a disappointment or a resilient effort.

Sal and BT debated the Yankees' postseason chances, with Sal arguing that their failure to win the division has made their road to the World Series far more difficult. He expressed disappointment in a team with the Yankees' payroll and talent not being able to beat out a division rival like the Blue Jays. BT countered that the team's injuries, particularly the loss of Gerrit Cole, should be considered, but both agreed that the Yankees' defense, inconsistent offense, and bullpen are serious concerns heading into the playoffs, especially with the added challenge of a wild card series.

The Pirates had five guys hitting under .200 in their lineup Wednesday. Henry Davis is hitting .161 this season. Gerrit Cole hit better during his Bucs career than Davis. Paul Skenes has made 24 starters in his career where he's allowed two runs or less and has lost or had a no decision. What do you do with Oneil Cruz and his slump?

C-Mac speculates if the Mets will finally call up a top pitching prospect to face the Braves, a team they struggle against. C-Mac also admires Gerrit Cole's mustache. C-Lo returns with an update, first taking accountability for an earlier mistake. John Sterling offered Aaron Boone advice. Willie discovers former WFAN hosts were technologically gullible. The segment concludes with the announcement of marquee Knicks game dates and times.

Hour 1 With Boomer, Gio, and Jerry in Pebble Beach, Chris McMonigle and Willie Colon fill in. The Yankees won, but C-Mac isn't impressed, finding the constant comparison to past teams annoying. Willie agrees, noting the evolution of sports. C-Lo's update highlights the Yankees' relief win and ponders the Mets' Phillies/Reds rooting interest. They expect Pete Alonso to hit his 253rd career HR. Willie dislikes joint practices. The group discusses modern slang and Shedeur Sanders. C-Mac questions how Mets fans would react if Alonso breaks the club HR record in a loss during the team's slump. Hour 2 C-Mac and Willie discuss the Yankees, Steelers, and Aaron Rodgers. C-Lo provides an update, referencing "The Sandlot" and criticizing modern language. They also touch on Giancarlo Stanton, Aaron Boone, and quarterback criticism, defending Boone while noting areas for improvement. Hour 3 C-Mac questions if the Mets will finally call up a top pitching prospect to face the Braves, a team they struggle against. C-Mac admires Gerrit Cole's mustache. C-Lo returns with an update, first addressing a previous mistake. John Sterling offered Aaron Boone advice. Willie discovers former WFAN hosts were technologically gullible. The hour ends with the announcement of marquee Knicks game dates and times. Hour 4 Willie heads to Atlanta, C-Mac to Italy, both embarrassed by their strange algorithms. They debate baseball analytics with an old man and discuss sports entertainment, bathroom reading, and barbershop adult magazines. C-Lo updates on the Yankees' win and Clint Frazier's dislike for the organization. C-Mac discusses the changing role of managers. C-Lo shares more Joe Benigno clips and asks Willie about the 2014 Jets and John Idzik. Willie recounts the team's desire for offseason additions that Idzik refused. The Moment of The Day revisits the McAdoo Disaster. The hour ends with cruise discussions and Giants/Jets practice reports.

Gerrit Cole is deep into the recovery process from Tommy John surgery, but he took time to chat with Yankees Magazine deputy editor Jon Schwartz about the struggles — both physical and emotional — that he has experienced during this stage, and also the ways that he still tries to contribute to the 2025 Yankees' World Series goals. Then, YES Network's Meredith Marakovits stops by to chat about Cole, the trade deadline and much more Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Bob emceed John Daly's golf event. Bob is tired of talking about prospects and what they can be. He thinks it's bad when teams go for quantity over quality, like the Pirates did with the Gerrit Cole trade. Bob wants the Pirates to acquire an established hitter if they trade Mitch Keller.

On Wednesday night, Clayton Kershaw made baseball history, becoming only the 20th pitcher in MLB history to reach the 3,000 career strikeout mark. The future Hall of Famer entered the night three strikeouts away from the milestone, and he reached the plateau in front of his family and the Los Angeles Dodgers' faithful fans.Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss the historical significance of this achievement by Kershaw and why it always felt inevitable that he would reach the mark. They also debate whether Gerrit Cole, Chris Sale or any other active starter might ever reach 3,000 strikeouts or if this could be the last time we see it happen in the game.Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake and Jordan react to the starting lineups for the American and National League All-Star teams, discuss the New York Yankees' continued struggles that now see them tied atop the AL East with the Toronto Blue Jays and answer some of your mailbag questions.

In this episode, we sit down with Chicago Cubs pitcher Jameson Taillon! Jamo talks about his baseball journey—from being a highly touted first-round pick to battling cancer, undergoing two Tommy John surgeries, and carving out a role in one of the most exciting pitching staffs in the league. Jamo opens up about what it really takes to succeed in today's MLB, why execution matters more than velocity, and how "pitchability" is making a comeback. He shares candid stories from his time with the Pirates, Yankees, and now the Cubs, including insights from teammates like Gerrit Cole, lessons from coaches, and the importance of peer relationships inside the clubhouse. We dive deep into: - His transition from top prospect to veteran leader - Embracing analytics while trusting his feel on the mound - Adjusting his mindset after injuries and adversity - Why team chemistry off the field translates to success on it - Being a foodie, locker room dynamics, and his first career save From cancer to comeback, Taillon's story is one of resilience, self-awareness, and never losing sight of what matters most.-----------------GuestJameson Taillon / @jtaillon50⁠⁠⁠HostsEric Hosmer /⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ @hosmer305⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Mike Moustakas /⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@moosetacos8⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Peter Moylan / ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@petermoylan⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Justin Su'a /⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ @justinsua⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Interact with the Diggin' Deep Crew on:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ / ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ / ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ / ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Advertising & Partnership inquiries: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠diggindeep@moonballmedia.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠a⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ MoonBall Media⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Podcast

RUNDOWN   Mitch and Hotshot Scott discuss the NCAA tournament's First Four games in Dayton, Ohio, diving into the city's rich basketball history and notable figures.
