Join us today for an incredible conversation with MLB veteran, former New York Yankee, and professional bodybuilder Kyle Farnsworth. In this episode, Kyle opens up about his beautiful family, his love for dogs, and his passion for hunting. He shares his journey from getting cut from his high school baseball team to being drafted by the Cubs, discussing his decision to attend junior college before joining the Cubs' minor league system. Kyle takes us through the highs and lows of his career, from his first win as a pitcher to that unforgettable 2003 Game 7 National League Championship series, and the unforgettable experience of playing for the Cubbies. We dive into his decision to turn down a larger offer from the Rangers to wear the iconic Yankees pinstripes, stepping into a locker room filled with legends like Jeter, A-Rod, and Mariano Rivera, and the surreal experience of playing in the historic Yankee Stadium.We also explore the challenges of being traded, his time in the Mexican League, and how all these experiences fueled his undying passion for the game. From there, we shift gears to Kyle's surprising semi-pro football career, where he led the league in sacks, and his journey into professional bodybuilding, discussing his disciplined diet, intense workout routine, and what it takes to stay at the top.We wrap up the conversation with fascinating stories about his unlikely friendship with Barry Bonds, chats about cattle with Nolan Ryan, and his thoughts on how baseball has changed over the years, particularly with all the rule changes affecting the integrity of the game. All this and more with the ever-interesting, always entertaining Kyle Farnsworth. Be sure to follow him on Instagram for morehttps://www.instagram.com/thekylefarnsworth

Editor's note: Starting tomorrow, We Can Pod It Out episodes will come out on their own, regularly scheduled. As you likely can tell from this post going out late on Tuesday night, we're (I'm) still a little bit behind on organization and whatnot, but the good news is that Roger and Andrew have recorded several episodes already, so we've got regular content lined up. More good stuff to come, so stay tuned! —JesseThe Metropolitan Astro TigerBy Jesse SpectorFive years after he's done playing baseball, Justin Verlander almost assuredly will be inducted to the Hall of Fame. When that happens, his plaque will list the Mets among his teams, following Detroit and Houston.The Hall of Fame is an exclusive club, sure, but the club that Verlander will join when he throws his first pitch in (the Mets') orange and blue? This is going to be history in the making.The Mets and Astros entered the majors together in 1962, and in six decades, there have been 128 players who have featured for the National League's ninth and 10th franchises. Last year, New York employed ex-Astro J.D. Davis, while former Mets prospect Rafael Montero won a ring with Houston.Only 18 of those 128 players, however, also have been on the Tigers. And of those, only two have spent multiple seasons with all three clubs — one pitcher and one hitter. Can you guess them?Perhaps you guessed one of the Mets' all-time ERA leaders, C.J. Nitkowski, who worked 5.2 innings over five appearances in 2001 without a blemish… or another of the Mets' all time ERA leaders, Dan Schatzeder, who worked 5.2 innings over six appearances in 1990 while also posting zeroes for the Mets. But, of course, each of those guys only made Flushing cameos, although Nitkowski and Schatzeder both were multi-year Tigers, and Schatzeder was in the Mets' organization for 10 days in June of 1991, but did not appear in a game.Three of the players who were Mets, Astros, and Tigers were only with each in one season. Journeymen Jim Lindeman and Roger Mason teamed up on the 1994 Mets, having been on the 1993 and 1989 Astros, and 1990 and 1984 Tigers, respectively. Oddly, Mike Marshall (the pitcher, not the first baseman, who also was a Met) also appeared for the Mets in a strike year, 1981, having been an Astro in 1970 and a Tiger three years before that.Marshall isn't the only major leaguer to share a name with another major leaguer and also play for the Mets, Astros, and Tigers. Lefty pitcher Dave Roberts was teammates with Marshall in 1981 in New York, and spent 1972-75 with the Astros, and 1976-77 in Detroit.That's six of the 18, and unfortunately neither Octavio Dotel, Jose Lima, nor Jose Valverde spent more than a few fleeting moments as Mets (and fortunately, Kyle Farnsworth only threw 17 innings here in 2014). Brandon Lyon spent multiple seasons in Queens, but one was with the Queens Kings, when he was a Blue Jays farmhand.The Queens Kings played at St. John's, where Nitkowski went to school, and he had multiple teammates on the 2001 Tigers who were also Mets and Astros, Willie Blair and Roger Cedeño, but Blair was only a Met in 1998 and Cedeño only an Astro in 2000. It would still be another few years before Lima got to the Mets, but he was on the 2001 Tigers, too… along with one of the answers, Dave Mlicki.And while Cameron Maybin, Verlander's ex-teammate in Detroit and Houston, was in New York for multiple seasons, one of those was with the Yankees…. and also he was only with Houston in 2017. Tim Byrdak also was Verlander's teammate in Detroit, but only in 2007 before spending 2008-10 with the Astros and 2011-13 as a Met.That leaves two players, both Mets legends in their own right, and in fact teammates in New York. While 1986 World Series MVP Ray Knight was with the Astros from 1982-84, his only action with the Tigers was in 1988.The other answer along with Mlicki is the one guy, before Verlander, who really could've been said to be known as a Met, Astro, and Tiger… and Rusty Staub is remembered by most as Le Grand Orange, for his time with the Expos.Verlander isn't just coming to New York to further his path to Cooperstown. He's blazing a new trail, all his own, through arcana and ad astra, the Metropolitan Astro Tiger.deGoneBy Roger CormierThe Texas Rangers signed Jacob deGrom on Friday, in their quest to get within 10 games under .500 I suppose. It was for five years and a lot of money, more years and money that a sane person would hand over to a 34-year-old with deGrom's injury history. But it's Jake. A two-time Cy Young Award winner who only a few months ago, in his second start after missing over a year, struck out 12 batters in 5.2 innings against a 102-win team. You know it's a big loss because the Mets leaked "Actually, this dude kinda sucks" information mere hours after he was no longer an employee. deGrom was anti-vaxx apparently. This isn't surprising, considering the Mets were previously reported to have one of the lowest vaccination rates in the game, and Jake, the poor guy, was born and reared in Florida. I am ashamed to admit that this confirmation makes me feel a little bit better about him no longer being a Met. This still stings though, because* He was/is a generational talent who* Clearly did not want to be a New York Met anymore. He always seemed to want to be the GOAT without the fame that came with it, something you definitely won't be afforded in New York. But was it something else? Was it something us Met fans said or did? It sounds so stupid, and yet, I wonder. The Mets already added Justin Verlander to take the spot atop the rotation alongside Max Scherzer. They could sign Carlos Rodon and Kodai Senga and the reanimated corpse of Tom Seaver with Uncle Stevie's moolah. That would be nice…and it wouldn't be the same. Which is the point, I tell myself.Even if he stayed, Jacob deGrom's 2015 NLDS, 2018, 2019, and first half of 2021 would never be replicated, because it already happened. He might put together another all-timer of a season, and it will likely be the only thing Texas Ranger fans can love. Good for them. (It's easy to be magnanimous when Texas is so far away, diametrically opposite in the American League West.) What they potentially might have is something we had, when Jacob and us were younger, less jaded, more capable of childlike awe. And no amount of money can take those memories away.

Kyle Farnsworth's conversation with us Tuesday was absolutely electric. The guy partied and was still able to drag himself out there to the mound for 16 MLB seasons.

Spiegs compared the umpire who threw Shane out Sunday to John McSherry, an MLB umpire who quite literally died on the field. Not a hot start! And are you able to find any positives in a White Sox loss? Any good found in Lucas Giolito's start is completely washed away by Gavin Sheets' inability to field his position in right field. Later, we're joined by Kyle Farnsworth, who had a hell of a baseball career. He's filled with stories about his new body-building career, fighting a box fan, fighting Paul Wilson, the Steve Bartman game in 2003, staying out WAY too late in Wrigleyville, the beef between the Cubs clubhouse and the broadcast booth in 2004 and pitching in a bullpen with Mariano Rivera.
Remember the weird bachelor party Danny went to in which that guy brought a bunch of sports trivia questions? Where are the strippers, dude? Danny brings another one of the questions to Spiegs in a short segment. Also, Spiegs and Shane talked to someone this morning who's moved back in with their in-laws while they save for a house. And they're absolutely LOVING it. Would you ever consider moving in with your wife's or husband's parents? There are very differing opinions.

Welcome back to A Pod of Their Own, a show by the women of Amazin' Avenue where we talk all things Mets, social justice issues in baseball, and normalize female voices in the sports podcasting space. This week, we begin by discussing what feels like at LEAST a month's worth of Mets crammed into one week—soon after Javy Báez's post “thumbs down” storybook ending, the Mets went on a winning streak. But amidst all of that, acting GM Zack Scott was arrested and charged with a DUI and subsequently placed on administrative leave by the Mets. In his media availability yesterday, Sandy Alderson characterized all of the “unbecoming” behavior on the part of Mets front office personnel as “unrelated” incidents, not necessarily indicative of a single flaw in the Mets' hiring process. We discuss the wrongheadedness of this characterization and the fact that even when Alderson knew about bad behavior on the part of his employees in the past, he chose not to act. We also talk about Alderson's update on Jacob deGrom's injury, in which apparently deGrom's elbow magically healed itself! In our baseball segment this week, we talk about speculation around the industry that Trevor Bauer will be suspended for “at least one year” by the league under its domestic violence policy, which would at least match the longest suspension ever handed down under the policy. We also discuss an ill-advised tweet on the part of former MLB (and Mets) reliever Kyle Farnsworth about Trey Mancini and how it reflects the toxic masculinity ubiquitous in the game. A reminder that Dollars4Dingers has begun! You can make your pledge here.

A lot going on. The Ravens NEED a running back, they're keeping Mark Andrews around, Maryland got a good win, Kyle Farnsworth is a creep. Do you know which team NFL players are playing for now? We took a look at the start of the show. At the bottom of Hour 1, Soren Petro from 810 WHB in Kansas City checked in to discuss the Ravens working out free agent Le'Veon Bell. Is there anything at all left in the tank? Why didn't it work with the Chiefs? Early in Hour 2, ESPN's Anish Shroff checked in to discuss Maryland's big win (he was on the call), reasonable expectations moving forward, lots of lacrosse and yes, the Bishop Sycamore thing. And at the bottom of Hour 2, we remembered a brilliant artist-Michael K. Williams (Omar from "The Wire") with his former co-star Isiah Whitlock.
Kyle Farnsworth vented his frustration about the softness of modern Major League Baseball players to Twitter yesterday. He vaguely called out players who missed game due to soreness...with the insinuation he was talking about Baltimore Orioles star Trey Mancini. Apparently Kyle Farnsworth didn't know Trey Mancini battled and defeated stage 3 colon cancer last year...and Twitter proceeded to blast Kyle Farnsworth for his lack of sympathy. We react to this story...and explain how this is one occurrence...where woke Twitter and the media reacted properly.

Francisco Lindor on the move!!! Some big time news finally happening, more big names on the move??? This episode's interview {34:36} features Detroit Tigers Top 30 Prospect, RHP Zack Hess. Zack attended LSU before getting drafted in the 7th round of the 2019 draft. Before we talk pro ball, we absolutely had to cover his time at LSU. From Coach O interactions "GEAUX TIGERS", the 2017 College World Series Run and everything in-between, Zack's time there seems nothing short of incredible. Disagree or not, the Detroit Tigers are stacking up young talent, and Zack is one of those talents.

Quick hitters: Making a bet with his agent Rachel Luba, off field interests, Jake Paul vs Kyle Farnsworth and off course the "Y-word" question!

Another day of quarantine is in the books and Kyle Farnsworth was kind enough to join us for a wellness check. Back in the day, Kyle was a prime target for The Heckler due to his hard-throwing, hard-partying ways. We talk about that (including speculation as to whether his jersey is still on the wall at Tai’s Til 4), how he now looks back at getting traded out of Chicago after the 2004 season, some behind-the-scenes stories about the 2003 Cubs, what went wrong with the 2004 club, what he’s doing now (including playing semipro football where he’s had several major injuries), what it was like to pitch in the Mexican League compared to how it was for Kenny Powers, and we of course talk about the time he beat the ever-loving shit out of Paul Wilson.

On today's heartwarming edition of the NastyCast, a Ron-less Van and Nate invite fellow Fantrax writer and personality Keith Farnsworth (not Kyle Farnsworth... he's the one that gave someone a piledriver while pitching in Detroit... to our knowledge Keith has never given anyone a piledriver) to discuss starting pitchers outside of the top 50 in ADP. But first Nate and Van discuss the Battle of the Podcasts league where the NastyCast has drafted an undeniably amazing team. Once Keith joins the boys they play ADP Wars with guys like Kevin Gausman, Tanner Roark, and Tyler Glasnow, and they give their bargains and busts at the position.
