Former MLB Pitcher Josh Towers and Scott Seidenberg discuss the latest around Major League Baseball. Juan Soto's struggles, the Dodgers slump and futures bets to make right now! In this episode, Scott Seidenberg and Josh Towers dissect a range of MLB storylines, with a heavy focus on Juan Soto's troubled transition to the Mets. Soto's recent on-field behavior—particularly his lack of hustle on a hit off the Green Monster and only securing one hit across three games against the Yankees—sparked criticism. Mets manager Carlos Mendoza announced plans to speak with Soto about his effort. Towers emphasized how professional athletes are expected to hustle regardless of performance, especially when part of a new organization. He critiqued Soto's declining stats (.246 average in 2025, subpar defense) and called out the media narrative that built him up unrealistically since his 2020 breakout. He believes the $765 million valuation raised unsustainable expectations. Michael Kay, based on conversations with Mets and Yankees insiders, claimed Soto appears “glum” and without joy. Soto reportedly preferred to remain a Yankee, but his family urged him to accept the Mets' offer. Towers, who played for both franchises, praised the Yankees for their professionalism and structure, saying it fosters respect and accountability. In contrast, he noted that the Mets, while improving, still lack the Yankees' foundational stability. Scott and Josh then evaluated the NL East race. Seidenberg endorsed betting on the Phillies to win the division at +130, noting their strong veteran core (Harper, Schwarber, Wheeler) and manager Dave Dombrowski's history of bold moves. Josh echoed this but pointed out the Phillies' need for young talent infusion, something they've lacked in recent years. They also discussed the Braves' resurgence, who started 0-8 but have since gone 24-15, with key players like Max Fried returning. Shifting to the Dodgers, both hosts criticized Dave Roberts' pitching management. The team's constant injuries and overuse of bullpen arms have led to four consecutive home losses. Towers questioned the effectiveness of the organization's throwing programs and training strategies. Despite Yamamoto's reliability, the rest of the rotation, including Snell, Glasnow, and Kershaw, remains inconsistent or injured. Fried's Cy Young candidacy was explored in depth. With a 1.29 ERA and consistent dominance, Josh called him the clear front-runner. Other contenders like Robbie Ray, Hunter Brown, and Chris Bubik were noted, though Fried's consistency set him apart. On the offensive side, Pete Crow Armstrong's recent surge sparked MVP speculation, but Josh dismissed it due to his relatively weak OBP and limited consistency. Attention turned to the Texas Rangers, whose rotation (deGrom, Eovaldi, Mowley) and improving offense make them serious contenders. The coaching shift toward personalized, non-analytic-heavy hitting plans has improved their situational batting. They also discussed trade rumors including Bo Bichette, Kenley Jansen, and Sandy Alcantara potentially moving before the deadline. The Orioles and Rockies came under fire for poor development. The Rockies' minus-150 run differential led Scott to predict they might break the all-time worst record. Josh argued that both teams lack direction and accountability, especially with player growth and clubhouse culture. Lastly, home field advantage in 2025 has reached historic levels, with home teams winning 56.5% of games, the best rate since 2005. Betting trends show high returns for home favorites, and Seidenberg emphasized this is a year to follow such patterns. The hosts closed with MVP and Cy Young betting odds, a promo for Pregame.com, and a final note on the season's unpredictability and remaining opportunities. Learn more about your ad choices.

Discussion centered on Juan Soto's "perks" with the Mets, leading to a tangent about the availability and use of "nudie magazines" at airports and in the WFAN bathroom. Jerry's final update included sounds of the Mets' loss in Boston, highlighting Soto's single after misjudging a ball off the Green Monster. Jerry also admitted Boomer's anti-Nets stance makes him root against the Knicks. Tyrese Haliburton expressed excitement for the MSG crowd.

Shaq recalled David Stearns asking his preferred draft location, choosing Orlando for its warm climate. In a surprising twist, the "All The Smoke" podcast later praised the Knicks' organ player.

Rumors suggest Soto is unhappy with the Mets, preferring the Yankees, and some in the organization are concerned. Pete Alonso also had a poor throwing error. Jerry's update covered the Mets' loss and Carlos Mendoza's discussion of hitting with runners in scoring position. Soto defended his effort when questioned about his slow start out of the box.

Finally, the NFL is reportedly allowing players to participate in Olympic flag football in 2028. Hour 2 Boomer feels the Knicks are still disrespected despite being series favorites and second favorites for the championship.

Hour 3 Concerns are reportedly growing within the Mets organization about Juan Soto's unhappiness, which seemed evident in his performance against the Yankees. Calls poured in discussing Soto's struggles and attitude. Boomer also contrasted Caitlyn Clark as a "needle mover" with Soto as a "negative needle mover." Jerry then played audio of Pete Alonso's errant throw to Senga, and Frank The Tank had another outburst after the Mets' loss. The segment concluded with a cameraman from the Discovery Channel's "Storm Chasers," sparking Gio's desire to witness a tornado. Hour 4 Discussion centered on Juan Soto's "perks" with the Mets, leading to a tangent about the availability and use of "nudie magazines" at airports and in the WFAN bathroom.

The Mets lost in Boston and all the attention is going to Juan Soto. Last night he hit a ball off the Green Monster and wound up with a single because he wasn't running out of the box. There are rumors swirling that he wanted to be on the Yankees but the family wanted the Mets because of all the perks. There are reports Soto is unhappy and some in the organization are worried about that.

Following the Mets 3-1 loss to the Red Sox, Carlos Mendoza spoke with the media about the team's recent offensive struggles and was asked if he was going to speak to Juan Soto about his single off the Green Monster this evening.

Following tonight's loss Juan Soto spoke with the media about his recent play and the single he hit off the Green Monster in the 6th inning.

American Idols: The Green Monster | Deryck Frye by Connect Church

Houston Astros rookie Zach Dezenzo joins The Matt Thomas Show ahead of a three-game road series against the Boston Red Sox. Dezenzo made his Major League debut Tuesday versus the Texas Rangers and went 0-for-4; however, in the following game, the infielder was positioned at first base and went 2-for-3 with a double and a walk. "I'm still trying to take it all in," but "I feel a little bit more settled in now," Dezenzo said. The Astros have struggled with consistent production at first base, as seen with the release of veteran Jose Abreu on June 14 and platooning between Jon Singleton and Mauricio Dubón. "I feel like I can get the job done" at first base, and "I understand the importance of my role on this team." Dezenzo was selected in the 12th round from Ohio State in the 2022 MLB Draft and spent only 11 games at Triple-A, splitting time between third base and first base. "It's definitely unique, and there's an art to" working around the bag at first. Dezenzo also tells the story of how he found out he got promoted, recalls attending athlete bible study with Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud, signing the "Green Monster" at Fenway Park and more.

Right out the gate we jump into Snoop Dogg calling Badminton at the Summer Olympics in Paris, and everyone feels like we need to hear him do a full quarter of a Lakers game! Plus Shaq made some noise this week by trolling Rudy Gobert, and everyone feels like he’s set everyone up to pick on him by performing so poorly after his Defensive Player of the Year award. And everyone on the show loses it with laughter after Frank the Tank’s epic and utter meltdown over the Mets and Sal Licata in the audio of the week! Plus after a Red Sox fans drops a ball over the Green Monster and embarrasses his wife on national television, we talk to Rob about the last time he embarrassed his wife in public… and he says when he got hammered at his birthday party. And we close out with some superhero talk after Deadpool & Wolverine killed it at the box office, because Rob is a little upset by the new Dr. Doom casting announcement.

(0:00) The final hour of Zolak & Bertrand begins with This Or That: Super Bowl or an NBA, MLB or NHL Championship Game 7.  (9:12) The last hour of the show continues by rehashing our discussion about the Kendrick Perkins and Brian Scalabrine beef.  (21:55) The show wraps up with a debate over how good the seats are on the Green Monster, sparking numerous phone calls about the best seats in all of sports.  (35:51) Today's Takeaway. 

On today's episode: Act I: THE BIG STORIES (0:54-2:57) In their first home game since Willie Mays' passing, the Giants all wore No. 24 to pay homage to the Say Hey Kid. Then, in true Hollywood fashion, they rallied for three runs in the ninth inning to walk off the Cubs. The Phillies turned the first 1-3-5 triple play in 95 years, keying their win over the Tigers. José Ramírez's 20th homer powered the Guardians past Baltimore as they became the third team to reach 50 wins. Still, the play of the night at Camden Yards might have come from a fan who snared a 108.5 mph foul ball with his right hand while clutching his phone and a drink in his left.   Act II: WHIPAROUND (6:31-8:16) Vladimir Guerrero Jr. mashed a 471-foot homer -- the longest of his career -- over the Green Monster, but the Red Sox scored five runs in the final two frames to walk off the Blue Jays. Miguel Rojas had two hits in the Dodgers' win over the White Sox, pushing L.A.'s record to 23-0 when he has at least one knock. Elly De La Cruz demolished a two-run homer into the riverboat deck at Great American Ball Park, Rhys Hoskins launched a go-ahead grand slam to lead the Brewers past the defending champs and Jurickson Profar delivered the walk-off knock in San Diego's extra-inning win over Washington.   Act III: LOOKING AHEAD (8:16-9:07) Tuesday's slate is highlighted by a premier pitching matchup between the Tigers' Tarik Skubal and the Phillies' Ranger Suárez in Detroit. Skubal is the current AL Cy Young frontrunner, while Suárez is among the top contenders for the award in the NL.

From the top of the Green Monster at historic Fenway Park, Matt Vierling sits down with Jason and Dan to discuss his second season as a Detroit Tiger. The former t-ball line drive machine recounts his path to the Majors - from Notre Dame baseball to his time in Philly, to landing in the Motor City. What are the characteristics of a “glue guy”? And why, according to Matt, is the Tigers lineup full of them? Vierling explains some of the changes he's made to tap into more power at the plate, and the challenge of making those tweaks without fundamentally altering his approach. What does it feel like to hit a walk-off home run at Comerica Park? Also in the episode, Matt recalls being fined by Andrew Chafin, glancing at Jason after an at-bat in Arizona, and does his best Boston accent To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

Stories:Baseball Stadiums and Romantic Places Most of us know or have visited COOPERSTOWN, NY the Baseball Hall of Fame.  It is a great place to visit - off the beaten path but surrounded by lush hills and close enough to the Finger Lakes to enjoy NY wine country. I used to be a great batter in the batting cages.  The last time I was there all the balls came out at me at once.  I screamed like a girl. An unusual historical baseball stadium is located there, DOUBLEDAY FIELD. This stadium has been there since 1920. Historically, the annual Hall of Fame Game was held there until 1908. Also noteworthy, FENWAY PARK, located in Boston, home to the Boston Red Sox 1912.  Famous for its tallest stadium wall in the U.S, the GREEN MONSTER,  it's the original WALL. Lastly, WRIGLEY FIELD, located in a neighborhood of Chicago and home to the Chicago Cubs.This location is surrounded by restaurants, bars and residences! The neighbors can watch the game right from their rooftops. https://www.sports-management-degrees.com/lists/5-historical-baseball-stadiums/   Romantic places for me will always be in France.  While most would choose Paris, one really wants to visit the Bordeaux coast seashore…straying into the other areas such as the seaside of Cape Ferret : An Insider Guide to Cap Ferret. https://www.84rooms.com/journal/an-insider-guide-to-cap-ferret Kundalini yoga https://youtu.be/AxefrkDOOY8?feature=shared.    Prosperity and protection  Wine FORLORN HOPE NAPA VALLEY. “ Taken from the Dutch ‘verloren hoop', meaning ‘lost troop', Forlorn Hope was the name given to the band of soldiers who volunteered to lead the charge directly into enemy defenses. “ https://www.forlornhopewines.com/about/ Forlorn Hope wine clubs" "the ultimate rare  creatures", "the menagerie club", the bestiary"   DISCOVER  https://youtu.be/DSP-DVqvT_o?si=SGUS4zGpxL4ODmuY ADVENTURE: https://www.rosalindseverinmcclean.com/ Oceans of Thoughts Book One on Amazon: Rosalind Seveirn McClean, Author GUIDANCE Fear of Public Speaking private courses :  https://bit.ly/3TXbx5L valerie@allinourminds.com @valeriehail56 Merci et Aurevoir

We finally got an email! Thanks Mr. Pink! Are we becoming too elitist and talking down to you guys? Email the show to confirm or refute this claim. We record the show with three different audio tracks which are done locally & then uploaded to Streamyard's cloud which allows me to modify the tracks to balance out each track's volume & equalization to maximize the friendliest sounds for your tender ears. Steve's audio file didn't save because he disconnected too soon or something (I check out early on this episode) so I had to clip the audio second by second from each time Luke & I were talking in proximity to Steve's voice. It took too long. I finally said screw it. I just uploaded the single track of all three voices at once. I don't know if it sucks or not. It's quarter to 4 in the morning & I'm toast. This episode has Keurig K Cups, more genocide in the middle east chatter, Bud Light, Steve's experience on top of the Green Monster at Fenway, capitalism will kill you & Pornhub is not cool anymore in 7 states. We love you all! This talk show is not the same without you listening and emailing us your highly entertaining thoughts. We close the show with Euphoria by Dan Boeckner.

For 50 years, 1939-1989, Red Sox Nation had three successive Hall Of Famers, guarding the Green Monster of Fenway out in left-field. Ted Williams, Carl Yastrzemski and Jim Rice. With the Splendid Splinter's story already in our collection, and Jim Rice on the horizon, this week we take a dive into the life and career, of the man New Englanders would affectionately call Yaz. The two things the Polish immigrant Yastrzemski family knows, is growing potatos and playing baseball. Under the omnipresent and watchful tutelage of his father and uncles, Yaz would rise from the farm to Cooperstown, with a dominant 23 year baseball career for the Red Sox, as one of the greatest all-around left-fielders who ever lived. #CarlYastrzemski #BostonRedSox #NotreDame #RayGarland #TedWilliams #LakeRonkonkoma #FrankNekola #TomYawkey #FenwayPark #RaleighCapitals #MinneapolisMillers #JakeRobinson #CharlieGunz #BackwardsKPod #NewEngland

The New York Yankees won three out of four against the Red Sox and split the day/night doubleheader on Thursday to essentially end Boston's hopes of possibly making the playoffs. The Yankees dropped the first game of the doubleheader, going 0-10 with runners in scoring position, but Michael King pitched well in his 4.2 innings of work. The Yankees won Game Two thanks to the offensive power of Aaron Judge, who hit a grand slam and Oswald Peraza who hit his first ML home run of 2023 over the Green Monster to give the Yankees some insurance runs to win 8-5. Stacey and Steve discuss the games, reveal who won the Bold Prediction for the series, and talk about whose season the Yankees can ruin next. Then it's FanMail Friday, and they answer your questions about everything from Michael King's new role as starter to Jasson Dominguez's possible Tommy John surgery. Join our subtext! https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonyankeesWhat is subtext? https://youtu.be/BItWi-kbIJY?t=1468Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCH5857VCyYLAzsWr9vHk4sQFollow Stacey On Twitter: https://twitter.com/StaceGotsSubscribe to Steve's YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@stevegranadoFollow Steve On Twitter: https://twitter.com/SteveGranadoFollow the Show On Twitter: https://twitter.com/LockedOnYankeesSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Jase MedicalSave more than $360 by getting these lifesaving antibiotics with Jase Medical plus an additional $20 off by using code LOCKEDON at checkout on jasemedical.com. eBay MotorsKeep your ride-or-die alive at ebay.com/motors. eBay Guaranteed Fit only available to US customers.

No announcer ever proclaimed: "Up Rises Frazier!" "Havlicek commits the foul, trying to steal the ball!" or "The Giants Lose the Pennant, The Giants Lose The Pennant!" Such moments are indelibly etched upon the mind of every sports fan. Or rather, they would be, had they happened. Sports are notoriously games of inches, and when we conjure the thought of certain athletes - like Bill Buckner or Scott Norwood - we can't help but apply a mental tape measure to the highlight reels of our minds. Players, coaches, and of course fans, obsess on the play when they ask, "What if?"  Upon Further Review: The Greatest What-Ifs in Sports History (Twelve, 2018) is the first book to answer that question. Upon Further Review is a book of counterfactual sporting scenarios. In its pages the reader will find expertly reported histories, where one small event is flipped on its head, and the resulting ripples are carefully documented, the likes of... What if the U.S. boycotted Hitler's Olympics? What if Bobby Riggs beat Billie Jean King? What if Bucky Dent popped out at the foot of the Green Monster? What if Drew Bledsoe never got hurt? Upon Further Review takes classic arguments conducted over pints in a pub and places them in the hands of dozens of writers, athletes, and historians.  Mike Pesca is the host of the daily podcast The Gist.

We were there to meet Luis Tiant *and* watch Kyle Isbel break the Green Monster, all while wearing Jerry Garcia jerseys. This is how we do baseball roadtrips. We missed Dominican night but it was a model for community outreach and service. Nicky Lopez rocks both the bat and the scoreless 9th now that he's a Hammer. Miguel passes Tony, and Seiya teaches us that mental health days are an important tool. Phillies fans try something new by supporting a struggling player and it seems to work! Good things in the minor leagues as the ATL High-A affiliate drops the problematic name and asks for suggestions.  Tell them your ideas (or  tell them our idea and suggest the Hammers!). 19 year-old Jackson Holliday has his third five-hit game, and 21 year-old Dylan Crews wastes no time in going 4-5 including a grand slam. Suspensions and fines were awarded for the CLE/CWS Fight Night, including the longest suspension doled out by MLB (6 to TA), and a successful appeal reducing Jose's from three to two games. Orioles ownership unites fans and baseball broadcasters nationwide against them as Angelos pulls star play by play guy Kevin Brown for completely  factually describing the improvement of the team over past  years.  Makes no sense, yes?   But Kevin Brown has been freed via chants, t shirts, and  public humiliation of John Angelos. US Women's Baseball is cruising through Group A play, living up to their RTEFW motto. Thunder Bay, baby.We say “He jiggles when you knock him,” “Ta-killah,” “I could be Mr. Smiley.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Kerri covers Danny Rolling, a serial killer who we know as the Gainesville Ripper.  She delves into the shocking details of his crimes and sheds light on the investigation process, the false leads, and the eventual capture of the killer. This case inspired the movie Scream. Donna covers the legend of the Flatwoods Monster, also known as the Green Monster or the Braxton County monster. We uncover the eerie events surrounding this case including eyewitness accounts of a tall, dark silhouette, putrid odors, and even a flying saucer.  The encounter with the Flatwoods Monster played a pivotal role leading to the government's involvement in investigating UFO sightings and encounters, ultimately leading to the creation of Project Blue Book. If you have any local true crime, local urban legend/lore, ghost stories.. we want them all!! We want to hear from YOU.  Especially if you have any funny Ambien stories!
