The Rays are sliding a bit and the boys are arguing over Kevin Cash!
Callers and texters react to Kevin Cash's decision making over the weekend & blame him. Some of these callers & texters want the Rays to fire Cash...WRONG! Is Cash perfect, no BUT he is not the scapegoat for every issue.
A HOT phone call to start this segment talking about McClanahan getting pulled & Kevin Cash not doing a great job. Can Nick change this caller's mind?
Former MLB right fielder and current hitting coach for the Tampa Bay Rays Chad Mottola (0:34) joins Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker to chat about what makes a great run producer, the types of development paths for his hitters, if batter technology has caught up to pitcher tech, the transition back to playing at Tropicana Field after a season at Steinbrenner Field, the next steps in Junior Caminero's offence, Kevin Cash's managerial philosophy, and how to be athletic in a player's at-bats. Then, MLB Insider and Sportsnet Blue Jays reporter Ben Nicholson-Smith (25:08) takes a look at how the baseball club are either actively looking or just monitoring the pitching market, if an impact player on both sides could be moved earlier in the trade market, the clubhouse vibe around the quarter mark, if John Schneider would consider moving Vlad Jr. in the lineup, Jeff Hoffman's potential return to the 9th inning, Brandon Valenzuela's adjustment to the Majors, and Andrés Giménez's hot bat.

Blake Murphy is joined by Sportsnet's Dan Shulman to break down Vladimir Guerrero missing power, Kevin Gausman's off outing and the significance of Toronto's ace hitting 2000 career strikeouts. Afterwards, Rays broadcasting legend Dewayne Staats (33:28) joins to talk about Chandler Simpson's impact and Kevin Cash getting the best out of his teams.

In our series on 1 Peter, Kevin Cash walks through 1 Peter 3 showing how hope anchors us through suffering and gives us confidence to honor Jesus in every circumstance.
In today's press conference we take a question about Kevin Cash's coaching staff and salary, a comment on Aaron's Halloween costume and a question for Aaron's Mom.
Send us a textA juggernaut from Hollywood meets a nation's heartbeat under a closed roof. We break down Dodgers vs Blue Jays from every angle: the tactical edges, the noise under the dome, and the human details that tilt a World Series. Our panel calls the series with conviction—some see LA's depth ending it in five, others ride Toronto's underdog momentum to a seventh-game win—and we explain exactly what would have to happen on the mound and in the sixth through eighth innings for either script to play out.We get candid about managers. Dave Roberts earns credit for more than payroll—buy-in, role clarity, and handling stars through a six-man rotation. Terry Francona remains the gold standard of culture and adaptability, while Kevin Cash proves how far elite process can carry a smaller payroll. That leadership debate threads through game management: fast hooks, pinch-hit timing, and managing leverage with traffic on the bases.Time zones and TV ratings matter, but the math shifts when an entire country rallies behind one team. We talk start times, customs, and travel fatigue, then weigh how Toronto's dome and crowd can create a pressure chamber if the Jays score early. LA can still quiet any park with one crooked inning, yet there's a different urgency when a city expects to be here versus a nation that hasn't celebrated a title since the early 90s.We also look ahead. The Dodgers' machine seems built for annual runs, but Toronto's path—smart additions, a healthy core, and a tighter American League—may keep them in the chase next year. Finally, we pick where we'd sit for this series: LA's star-studded seats or Toronto's chest-thumping roar inside the dome.If you're into smart baseball talk with strong opinions and real stakes, hit play now.

In our series Worthy, Kevin Cash challenges us to walk in a manner worthy of the calling we have received in Christ.
In this episode, the "Popeless" crew talk cover a lot of topics. Milk is still trying to figure out why Rays manager Kevin Cash kept pitching to Cal Raleigh, who went on a home run tear against them. Then, in true Cowboys' haters fashion, did a little preseason clowning on CeeDee Lamb for getting run over by a ref on the sidelines and Dak Prescott for already talking about the NFC Championship game.They also gave a shout-out to Jen Pawol, the first woman to ump an MLB game, and poured one out for golfer Tommy Fleetwood, who just can't seem to close out a tournament win, plus gave some props to the Little League Softball champs from Pennsylvania.They talked about Stetson Bennett's comeback with the Rams, and got into big, breaking news/legal conversation about Jon Gruden winning his appeal to take the NFL to court instead of being forced into arbitration.We have a big college football preview for you, starting with the SEC. The consensus being that the conference is wide open this year, with giants like Texas, Georgia, and Alabama all starting new quarterbacks. The guys also share some potential dark horses. They discuss the Big Ten, and the three-horse race between Ohio State, Oregon, and Penn State. The guys also jumped across the pond for a Premier League preview, wondering if Liverpool can repeat as champs and highlighting all the crazy money being spent on new, high-powered front-three attackers by clubs like Man City, Arsenal, and Chelsea.We are so grateful for Injury Board, an exclusive networking and marketing firm that connects and refers cases among the best plaintiffs' lawyers in the country.

He shares lessons learned from working under Terry Francona and Kevin Cash, how Giambi helped him become a better coach, and what it means to create psychological safety in a clubhouse.Quatraro opens up about his evolving role, the challenge of managing through losses, and earning buy-in from leaders like Salvador Perez and Bobby Witt Jr. He reflects on support from his family, insights from legends like Ned Yost and George Brett, and how his approach has grown—from minor league learning curves to playoff intensity. From getting ejected to making tough decisions, Q offers a raw, honest look at what it takes to manage at the highest level.-------------------------HostsEric 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
