The Braves are gearing up for their final road trip of the season after what has been a disappointing year by their standards. On this episode of Braves Central, we dive into the massive offseason decisions that could shape Atlanta’s future: Ha-Seong Kim has been one of the few bright spots — will the Braves lock him in long-term? What’s next for Ozzie Albies, and how does his role fit into the team’s future? Could this be the end of the road for Brian Snitker as manager? And of course… those poor Mets. It looks like New York will be missing the playoffs once again. Join us as we break it all down — from player outlooks to managerial questions and what it all means heading into 2026. ⚾ Stay tuned for the latest Braves news, analysis, and offseason updates here on Braves Central! #Braves #ForTheA #HaSeongKim #OzzieAlbies #BrianSnitker #MetsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Anthony Franco joins Darragh McDonald to discuss the Red Sox extending Aroldis Chapman after a surprisingly good year at age 38 and Walker Buehler getting released and signing with the Phillies.In an extended mailbag section, listener question topics include the Braves claiming Ha-Seong Kim and if they will spend more now that they've gotten under the luxury tax threshold, what the Rangers need to address this offseason, what the Pirates could realistically do in left field next year, and if the Marlins will trade starting pitching or commit to winning instead. 

Spencer Strider is still searching for his groove as he works on his mechanics and tries to reinvent himself. But are the analytics turning into a crutch for Strider? We break it down. Plus, the Braves’ shortstop question just got interesting—Atlanta claimed Ha-Seong Kim off waivers from the Rays. Could this be his audition for the starting role heading into next season? And looking ahead: Bo Bichette is a popular name among Braves fans, but after his big year in Toronto, will his next contract price Atlanta out of the conversation?

Segment 1 – News and Notes1.The Reds signed Austin Hayes to play left field. It was a small sign, and this means no Will Benson (14 HR and 16 SB) or Rece Hinds. Is there any interest?a.They also acquire Taylor Rogers from the Giants for RHP Braxton Roxby. Rodgers had 31 saves in 2022 and a decent season last year with the Giants. How many save opportunities do you think he gets with the Reds? Handcuff for Alexis Diaz?2.The Rays sign Ha-Seong Kim for two years with an opt-out after the first year. Scott Boras suggested that he return after labrum surgery in April of last September. AJ Preller said more May or June. Do you have any interest in Kim for 2025?3.Max Scherzer signs with the Jays for one year and $15.5 millionSegment 2 – Third Base Preview1.How are you approaching this position for your upcoming drafts?2.We will break down the top 15 to 20 in detail.

The New York Yankees haven't been quiet this offseason in regard to putting together a roster that they feel can hopefully get them back to the World Series in 2025. The same can be said for Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner this past week when he made a little noise himself, notably making comments about how the Los Angeles Dodgers have spent this offseason.Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss the noise that came from the Boss in the Bronx about how teams can't spend like the world champs currently are and if these comments have something to do with the upcoming CBA talks that will surely focus on free agency and the way teams spend. They also talk about Hal selling the 2025 team as better than the 2024 club and whether the Yankees can actually put faith in a bounce-back season from Paul Goldschmidt and DJ LeMahieu.Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, the guys get into the incredible performance (and bat flip) by Junior Caminero from Game 7 of the LIDOM championship, including a feat that's almost unheard of and how much better he can possibly get. Jake and Jordan also talk about Ha-Seong Kim and Carlos Estévez signing deals, as well as make their picks for The Good, The Bad & The Uggla.(1:36) - The Opener: Hal Steinbrenner's comments(21:44) - Around the League: Ha-Seong Kim and Carlos Estévez sign(33:18) - Turbo Mode: Recapping other transactions(38:53) - Holy %^&*$#&%: Junior Caminero's Game 7 performance(52:08) - The Good(55:26) - The Bad(59:41) - The Uggla Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:
