The Baltimore Orioles have claimed outfielder Luis Robert Jr. off waivers from the New York Mets to boost their outfield depth ahead of the stretch run. Corey Pieper breaks down a major waiver wire pickup, an explosive 9-home-run offensive outburst by the Cubs, crucial September bullpen shifts, the daily Bullpen Report, and the FanDuel Bet of the Day. The transaction and health wire was active as the calendar turns to September, highlighted by Baltimore claiming Luis Robert Jr., St. Louis anticipating the return of Masyn Winn, and Ketel Marte returning to the lineup. On the injury front, Luis Rengifo suffers a season-ending ACL tear, Aaron Judge continues targeting an early September activation during New York's upcoming homestand, and both Ethan Salas and Yohandy Morales highlight notable health updates. Daily performance slates featured dominant showings in the studs column from Ian Seymour dueling Robert Stock, Randy Arozarena, Daylen Lile, Taj Bradley, Luke Keaschall, Ryan Jeffers, Jacob deGrom, Clay Holmes, Walbert Urena, Cal Raleigh, Rafael Devers, Brandon Pfaadt matching up against Aaron Nola, and an unprecedented 9-home-run display from the Chicago Cubs lineup featuring Alex Bregman launching three homers alongside blasts from Michael Conforto, Seiya Suzuki, Nico Hoerner, Tyrone Taylor, Carson Kelly, and Matt Shaw. Conversely, Bryce Elder, Kyle Harrison, Jackson Jobe, Gage Jump, and George Kirby matching up against Payton Tolle all struggled into the duds section. The daily Bullpen Report analyzes late-inning dynamics across the league, examining Oakland turning back to Elvis Alvarado, Andrew Kittredge handling high-leverage work in Baltimore, Bryan Hudson in the White Sox bullpen, Josh Hader cementing his status as a top-three closer in Houston, and Justin Martinez returning to late-inning duties for Arizona.

He also discusses his relationship with his family, playing quarterback, and transitioning from fielding to pitching. How does his competitiveness come out on the mound? What is the switch he flips from bullpen to the mound?

Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman take stock of the standings following the trade deadline, kicking off with the chaotic and mediocre American League wildcard race. They break down the Seattle Mariners' miserable weekend, where the team was swept at home by the Tampa Bay Rays while celebrating 50 years of franchise history in front of over 40 franchise legends. The guys evaluate whether Dan Wilson's squad can recover during a grueling August road trip or if Seattle's season is officially slipping away. The conversation shifts to the surprising Detroit Tigers, who have surged into second place in the AL Central with the American League's best run differential behind strong pitching performances and the return of Jackson Jobe. Jake and Jordan also cover the Oakland A's decision to part ways with long-time front-office executive David Forst after a disastrous season, as well as Chris Sale's historic pre-game ejection at Yankee Stadium before the first pitch was even thrown. Over in the National League, the hosts dissect the Los Angeles Dodgers' recent slump after dropping two out of three games to the surging Arizona Diamondbacks. They analyze whether the Dodgers' aging offense is showing early warning signs for October, review the Philadelphia Phillies' bullpen fatigue, highlight the New York Mets' hot streak against the Pittsburgh Pirates, and close out the show with a debate over when the "dog days of summer" actually begin and end.

From Detroit's bats waking up to the A's and Rockies stealing headlines, Jake and I walk through a jam-packed slate and preview a loaded day of pitching. Show Notes (concise, from your POV): On this June 3 episode of BD Baseball, I sit down with Jake and run through a full 15-game slate: Tigers crush, Flaherty shoves, and Greene/Perez provide the power we've been missing. Gage Jump delivers seven strong in Wrigley as the A's win a tight one behind an opposite-field bomb from Nick Kurtz. Rockies step out of the basement, the Angels fall further, and Joe Adell recreates Jose Canseco with a ball off his glove and head. We talk Johan Duran's filth, John Smoltz's “no pitchers, only throwers” comments, and where we agree or disagree. Around the league: Orioles in Boston, Pirates staying relevant, Braves still a wagon, and the Giants plus Red Sox continuing to make their fans miserable. We preview a stacked pitching slate with Peralta–Kirby, Sanchez–Buehler, Burns–Royals, Cole–Gavin Williams, and Skenes–Astros, plus some first-five and total leans. Injury and transaction notes on Verlander, Jackson Jobe, Mason Barnett, Cade Morris, Civale, and Severino. New episodes of BD Baseball drop all week on Burnin' Daylight Sports.

Folks, this week's episode of Next on the Tee is a really special one…and an emotional one too. I'm joined by three tremendous guys who have great stories to share and who remind us what this game — and the friendships that come from it — are all about. First up is 2019 PGA Tour Champions Player of the Year Scott McCarron. Scott has become a great friend over the years, someone who is very important to me. Scott opens up about the toughest battle of his life after recently being diagnosed with cancer. He shares how he discovered it, the frightening moments that followed when his test results came back, and the treatment journey he's now taking on with courage, faith, and determination. Then Scott's longtime friend, UCLA teammate, fraternity brother, and fellow PGA Tour Champions winner Brandt Jobe jumps into the conversation. You'll hear stories from their lifelong friendship, the time Brandt beat Scott by a stroke on Tour, and Scott returning the favor a few weeks later. Plus, the injuries Brandt has overcome, his battle to get back out on Tour, and his son Jackson Jobe making his way back from Tommy John surgery to pitch this year for the Detroit Tigers. I close things out with another terrific visit from Clark Dennis, who looks back on his great play at the 1994 U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club, his win at the 2024 Costa Navarino Legends Tournament in Greece with his son on the bag, and his successes playing over on the European Legends Tour. It's an episode filled with friendship, perseverance, gratitude, great golf stories, and the kind of conversations that remind us why we love this game so much. Please like and subscribe so we can get the show in front of more great golf fans just like you. #GolfPodcast #NextOnTheTee #PGATourChampions #ScottMcCarron #BrandtJobe #ClarkDennis #GolfLegends #GolfStories #GolfLife #GolfCommunity #GolfFans #GolfTalk #GolfInterviews #ChampionsTour #USOpen #Oakmont #OakmontCountryClub #EuropeanLegendsTour #SeniorGolf #GolfChannel #GolfInstruction #GolfTips #MentalGame #GolfMotivation #CancerAwareness #SportsPodcast #BestGolfPodcasts #GolfNews #GolfMedia #GolfContent #GolfWorld #PGA #GolfHistory #DetroitTigers #JacksonJobe #CollegeGolf #UCLAGolf #GolfFriends #InsideTheRopes #WhereGolfLegendsLive #YourGameGetsBetter
Spring training decisions are starting to take shape for the Detroit Tigers with less than four weeks until Opening Day on March 26. On "Days of Roar," Evan Petzold and Chris Brown break down the Troy Melton injury and six early roster cuts, then dive into the latest on top prospect Kevin McGonigle and his real chances of making the Opening Day roster – including which position player could be on the chopping block to make room for him. We also unpack the Max Clark situation, featuring his comments and A.J. Hinch's comments amid outside criticism about his personality after dropping two fly balls in one inning. Former Tigers player and current Tigers broadcaster Andy Dirks joins the show to discuss his broadcasting journey and his outlook on the 2026 Tigers, headlined by Justin Verlander's return, Riley Greene's adjustment and McGonigle's rapid rise. To close, Petzold and Brown provide an injury update on Jackson Jobe and react to Detroit SportsNet becoming the new broadcast home of the Tigers and Red Wings. Follow Evan on X/Twitter here.

Pitchers and catchers from the Detroit Tigers report to spring training in eight days, but before the focus shifts to the 2026 season, former general manager Al Avila (responsible for 25 players on the current 40-man roster) joins "Days of Roar" for more than an hour to discuss the Tigers' rebuild, along with other takeaways from his more than 20 years with the Tigers, including the final seven seasons in charge of baseball operations. Topics with Avila include Mike Ilitch vs. Chris Ilitch, the J.D. Martinez and Justin Verlander trades in 2017, who would've been the manager if A.J. Hinch had joined the Chicago White Sox, Carlos Correa and Javier Báez during the 2021-22 offseason and getting fired (then being asked to stay) in August 2022. He also took deep dives into draft pick decisions such as Jackson Jobe over Marcelo Mayer, Jace Jung over Zach Neto and Riley Greene over CJ Abrams, plus the scouting process for No. 1 overall picks Spencer Torkelson and Riley Greene. Aside from the Avila interview, Evan Petzold and Chris Brown discuss Tarik Skubal's upcoming arbitration hearing, the ongoing pursuit of mid-tier starters — and if there's any chance Framber Valdez falls into the Tigers' lap.

BT & Sal make a forceful argument that Gold Glove-winning infielder Nico Hoerner is the perfect "scrappy" trade target to fix the Yankees' contact-starved lineup. The guys highlight Hoerner's elite profile: a .297 average, a .345 OBP, nearly 30 stolen bases, and a staggeringly low 7.6% strikeout rate last year. They compare him to a high-risk/high-reward player like Jazz Chisholm, arguing Hoerner provides the consistency and defense the Yankees desperately need. The conversation then pivots to the Mets' hot stove, with a listener proposing a radical overhaul that includes trading Pete Alonso, securing top pitching prospect Jackson Jobe in a trade for Elias Díaz (who just signed with the Dodgers), and acquiring Cody Bellinger and Japanese Gold Glove first baseman Shugo Maki. Sal agrees with the defensive shift but insists the Mets would need to land Tarik Skubal or an equivalent top-tier starter to make the complete teardown worthwhile.

On the April 18, 2025 episode of RJ Bell's Dream Preview MLB podcast, Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner provided in-depth analysis of the Friday baseball slate with betting insights. Munaf opened by highlighting his 5-1 betting record and credited their collaborative discussions for the success. The first matchup covered was Diamondbacks vs. Cubs (0:10–7:40). Corbin Burnes has struggled early, while Cubs starter Colin Rea provides potential value. Chicago leads MLB in runners in scoring position appearances and has scored 124 runs to Arizona's 104. The Cubs as home underdogs and a lean to the over were discussed, depending on Wrigley Field wind. In Royals vs. Tigers (7:41–11:34), Cole Ragans faces top prospect Jackson Jobe. Kansas City's offense has produced just 19 runs over its last 10 games and is 2-8 on the road. The Tigers' bullpen is strong, and both hosts leaned toward Detroit plus money and under 7.5. Guardians vs. Pirates (11:35–15:11) features Luis Ortiz against Carmen Mlodzinski. Mlodzinski has a 1.77 WHIP with command issues. The Guardians were favored due to bullpen depth. Pittsburgh is 6-4 at home and to the over. There was a slight lean to Cleveland and possibly over 8.5. In Marlins vs. Phillies (15:12–19:08), Sandy Alcantara is no longer dominant, while Zack Wheeler boasts an 11-4 record and 2.73 ERA against Miami. Philadelphia is 24-11 in Wheeler's home starts since 2023. The Phillies were a strong lean, especially on the run line. Yankees vs. Rays (19:49–25:11) featured Carlos Rodón, who has allowed 4+ earned runs and 3+ walks in three straight starts. Drew Rasmussen has not allowed a run in 21 career innings vs. the Yankees. Munaf's best bet was Rays first five innings at -110. In Reds vs. Orioles (25:12–28:31), Andrew Abbott faces Cade Povich. While Abbott had a solid outing against Pittsburgh, Baltimore's offense poses more danger. The Orioles were favored and offensive production expected. Mariners vs. Blue Jays (28:31–31:40) has Bryan Woo, who has struggled away from home, against Bowden Francis. Toronto is 7-3 at home and the over 7.5 was considered. Cardinals vs. Mets (31:42–35:05) pits Miles Mikolas against David Peterson. St. Louis is 1-6 on the road and lacks comeback potential. The Mets were the lean, especially on the run line. Griffin's best bet was Braves -130 vs. Twins (35:06–38:12). Chris Paddack has lost all three starts by 2+ runs and Bryce Elder is trying to earn a rotation spot. In Red Sox vs. White Sox (38:13–41:46), Martín Pérez is a steady innings-eater. Boston has a negative run differential and both hosts were reluctant to back them as heavy favorites. Dodgers vs. Rangers (41:46–45:55) features Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who has a 0.91 WHIP and 28 strikeouts in 22 innings, against Jacob deGrom, who's allowed multiple home runs in consecutive starts. The Dodgers were favored early. In Astros vs. Padres (52:32–56:54), Kyle Hart rebounded after a poor debut, while Houston's Ryan Gusto is unproven. The Padres are 15-4, and with Houston's bullpen issues, San Diego at +123 was the consensus lean. Brewers vs. A's (56:55–1:01:02) has Freddy Peralta allowing six earned runs over 23.1 innings. Milwaukee is 43-27 at home in his starts since 2018. Nationals vs. Rockies (1:01:11–1:04:14) features cold Denver weather and a low total of nine. MacKenzie Gore's road struggles were noted, but Washington was the slight lean. Giants vs. Angels (1:04:14–1:07:43) featured Logan Webb's consistency against Tyler Anderson. San Francisco is 9-4 on the road with eight wins by 2+ runs. Munaf leaned Giants run line. The episode ended with a promo for Pregame's $1,000 MLB contest and 20 percent discount code HOMERUN20.
