I'll take unlikely pitchers to strike out Shohei Ohtani for 200 please. We let Sally Jenkins and Jake Mintz take the lead on the “permanent ends when you're dead” rant re Pete and the other formerly permanently ineligibles. Will Andy Pages be the player that gets Pottymouth to manage her fantasy team more closely? Maybe! Patti's team is again short a 3rd baseman but the math is working out. PCA's newest stats are rivaling those of the new Pope for Chicago-based excitement. We thought the BOS gag was going to be Who's On First but it turned out to be who is in the outfield because the new City Connects are Fenway camo for the guys near the wall. Kudos to the second place finisher in a Maine high school track event for calling out Rep. Laurel Libby as a bully for “maligning” the trans-identified athlete who won the event. And we crosstrain with ornithology because even after Brandon Hyde got fired only one kind of oriole is fun to watch right now.We say, “I wanna piggyback on the joy,” “who wouldn't want to swing a rainbow banner?” and “I hate it when drag queens make me cry.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Bluesky @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

The New York Yankees made two shocking announcements that sent headlines throughout sports, and neither involved acquiring a player or firing someone.

The guys wonder what may have caused this change in tune from the new boss and if their World Series loss has anything to do with it.Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake and Jordan talk about MLB trying out for the first time ever during Spring Training the Automated Ball-Strike challenge system and if this means it's only a matter of time before Robo-Umps become a thing in the game.

The last holdout for notable free agents has finally signed, as Alex Bregman and the Boston Red Sox agreed to a deal late Wednesday night that sees the former Houston Astros third baseman taking his talents to Beantown. While the move isn't entirely shocking considering both the team and player have been connected throughout the offseason, how Bregman fits is the next question.Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss why it was a logical move for the Red Sox to acquire the former All-Star, if Bregman will opt out of his contract following 2025 and the possible reason he chose to play for the Red Sox and manager Alex Cora instead of reuniting with A.J. Hinch in Detroit for a longer deal.Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, the guys discuss Nick Pivetta and Kenley Jansen signing deals out on the West Coast, as well as talk about one of the bigger problems the New York Yankees might be facing this season.

Spring Training kicks off this week for MLB clubs, with many players already reporting to their club sites to get ready for the marathon that starts next month.

They also talk about why this is the possible consequence of playing the waiting game and what kind of contract he can expect at this point.Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, the guys are joined by former All-Star and four-time Gold Glove first baseman Eric Hosmer, as they dive into his career, including success off of Chris Sale and Clayton Kershaw, his adventures playing the outfield and his clutch gene that led to nine career walk-offs.

Late Wednesday night, the New York Mets and Pete Alonso agreed on a deal to bring the Polar Bear back for at least one more season in Flushing.Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss why the re-signing by the Mets was always inevitable despite the back-and-forth between the club and Alonso's camp, the reasoning why the first-base market never materialized for Pete and the reason why the Amazin's lineup looks so much better now.Also, on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, the guys talk about a few notable Spring Training position battles, including who is playing third base for the New York Yankees and which pitchers might be included in an already crowded Los Angeles Dodgers starting rotation.

As Spring Training rapidly approaches, a couple of notable free-agent pitchers have found teams just in time for pitchers and catchers to report. With Jack Flaherty returning to the Detroit Tigers and Max Scherzer taking his Hall of Fame resume to the Toronto Blue Jays, both teams are hoping the pitchers provide a spark to their rotations.Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss the surprising move of Flaherty going back to Detroit and why his contract signals that he will more than likely re-test free agency after next season, as well as whether the Blue Jays will be able to get a healthy Scherzer to anchor their rotation in an already competitive AL East division.Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, the guys take a look at some of the top prospects in baseball, including Roman Anthony from the Boston Red Sox, Sebastian Walcott from the Texas Rangers and Drake Baldwin from the Atlanta Braves.

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.

Over the weekend, the Houston Astros were finally able to trade reliever Ryan Pressly to the Chicago Cubs after he agreed to waive his no-trade clause and sign off on the deal. With the trade going through and some money being saved, could this mean the Astros are willing to bring back a familiar face at third base?Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss whether the Pressly-Cubs trade could indicate that Houston is trying to find funds to re-sign Alex Bregman and reunite him with Jose Altuve, something the second baseman has said he's willing to do by moving to the outfield to help accommodate the team. Even though the Astros have, in theory, moved on from the two-time All-Star based on the moves they've made, perhaps a reunion could be in the cards now.Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, the guys talk about comments made by New York Mets owner Steve Cohen at Amazin' Day, which suggest he might be drawing a line in the sand regarding bringing back Pete Alonso and why he may be showing agent Scott Boras he's done being taken advantage of. Later, Jake and Jordan discuss some controversy in the LIDOM championship that might involve a corked bat, as well as the Washington Nationals doing something they've never done before.
