Former Razorback and Pro Hog, Logan Forsythe, is on the show to talk about the Arkansas baseball team.
In this episode of Sports the NEMO Way we bring the best Tampa Bay Rays Mount Rushmore to the table for discussion.
There are so many issues facing this Philadelphia 76'ers team, especially when they play ball on the road. Is Brett Brown the real problem? Where's the leadership in the locker room? There are questions as to whether or not they'll even get out of the first-round of the playoffs. To get into some Sixers talk with us this week, Tom West from LibertyBallers.com and the Sixers Film Room joined us to break things down. It's a great interview for all you Sixers fans!But first, we responded to some listener feedback from this past week: our ultimate Sixers team, what movies/tv shows we'd like to see re-made, and the mood of the Philly sports scene. (approx. 5:00)From there, we discussed Brett Brown's leash, if and when he should be fired as head coach of the Sixers. (approx. 15:15)Then we dove into some news that recently broke indicating that Eagles QB coach, Press Taylor, is getting a promotion, seemingly apparent that the Birds will not be hiring an offensive coordinator. (approx. 22:15)We also discussed some Phillies news and notes from this past week: Roy Halladay's jersey being retired, and Logan Forsythe being signed to a minor-league deal. (approx. 27:05)This week on the Highbrow Segment, we talked about new legislation being introduced in Pennsylvania that would make it illegal to harass sports officials and umpires. Do we agree with this kind of action in sports? (approx. 33:10)On the Lowbrow Segment, we have yet another top-3 list: the most un-boo'able athletes in Philly sports history. (approx. 43:15)What we're throwing down on the Table, is an in-depth interview with Tom West from Liberty Ballers. We first discussed Brett Brown's tenure as head coach of the Sixers, and when he may be fired from his position on the team. From there, we talked about the apparent lack of leadership in the locker room. Is Matisse Thybulle going through some rookie hiccups at the moment? Is Joel Embiid truly having a disappointing season when we look at his performance overall? We get into all of this and much more on the Table! (approx. 57:00)Email us at feedback@philadelphiasportstable.com to let us know your thoughts about anything and everything Philly sports. We'll read your email on the show and respond.
A ton of prospects were called up which resulted in the most recent bout of FAABmaggedon! Nate, Ron, and Van return to talk some of those players and whether or not they were worthy of their insane costs. They'll discuss Austin Riley, Oscar Mercado, Willie Calhoun, and more. They also touch on Tommy La Stella's wacko season as well as some hot performers like Aledys Diaz, Jordan Luplow, Logan Forsythe and more. Also, please don't step into any holes on your ranch. We beg you!

The St. Louis Cardinals - Deep in the Heart of Texas It's been nearly eight years since the Cardinals and the Texas Rangers last met. That series turned out in the Cardinals' favor, thanks to the likes of Lance Berkman and David Freese. This series, though, features two teams that have faced rough stretches in the month of May, despite flexing their offensive muscles every now and then. Levi Weaver writes about the Rangers for The Athletic, and he's seen it all - The struggles of Rougned Odor The resurgence of Mike Minors, Logan Forsythe, and Hunter Pence The challenges for José Leclerc - once closer, now opener He joins me to talk through it all on this week's Series Preview! What's your prediction for the series?? How many games will the Cardinals win?

Due to several big-time free agents still unsigned, some MLB players are talking players strike. Chip and Cern dig little into what started the 1994 MLB Strike. Chip and Cern review the Adam Wainwright clip where he is talking about a strike. Find out who is still unsigned, how much are they making and some Giants salary talk on this episode of the Chip and Cern Show. Bryce Harper and Manny Machado are the two biggest free agents that are yet to be signed and many think that owners are colluding against these big players and their contracts. Chip has some tips on how to get the strike does not look like some money grab. Chip and Cern learn up about what caused the 1994 strike and how it affected the game after that. Chip just starts reading off some stats from the 1994 strike-shortened season. Cern has a great point in saying the game of baseball isn’t ready for a strike. Attendance is down, and the game is tough to keep up with, so a strike isn’t a good one to take for the MLB.

After winning 7 out of 8 to climb above .500, the Dodgers lost two in a row to the Marlins and their minor-league pitchers. Jeff and Vince talk about that a bit, but we try not to dwell too much on the negative. We also discussed timelines for Justin Turner and Logan Forsythe, concerns about Clayton Kershaw, Walker Buehler's first career start, and a lot of other topics. And we did a Sporcle quiz: Can you name a player that made their major league debut with the Dodgers for each season since 1980? Thanks for listening!

Recorded immediately after the epic ending to World Series Game 5, the Ducksnort Boys make their predictions for how the series will end and review the craziness that’s happened so far -- including a record home run binge, the complete meltdown of both bullpens, and a conspiracy theory about World Series balls. Then artist and first-time baseball watcher Dodge Greenley explains why he decided to tune in this year, and how satisfying that decision has been. Plus thoughts on Alex Bregman, Kenley Jansen, Clayton Kershaw, Justin Verlander, Chris Devenski, Ken Giles, Rich Hill, Brandon McCarthy, Lance McCullers Jr., Jose Altuve, Carlos Correa, Yuli Gurriel, Joc Pederson, Yasiel Puig, Logan Forsythe, Brian McCann, and more!

Jeff and Vince talk about the Dodgers, who just clinched their fifth straight National League West Division title. We talked about a lot of different things, but two things we didn't mention that we probably should have were how good Yu Darvish has been lately and the fact that Logan Forsythe might be breaking out. Oh well, there's always next week. This week's "On This Date in Dodgers History" took us back to September 26, 2003, when the Dodgers lost to the Giants, 10-1, and everything was awful. But at least Jeff discovered a fellow Mormon. Who was it? You'll have to listen to find out! Thanks for listening. Follow us on Twitter! @ScullyAve @VinceSamperio @snidog

Who are the best outfield prospects in the game? MLB.com's Tim McMaster along with MLBPipeline.com's Jonathan Mayo and Jim Callis run down the top 10 prospects at third, short, second and the outfield. The crew also breaks down the Logan Forsythe for Jose De Leon trade.
George Bissell, Mike Gianella and Bret Sayre of Baseball Prospectus discuss Jose Altuve cementing his elite status (3:00), whether Trea Turner is worthy of a first round investment (6:00), the long-term fantasy outlook at second base (12:30), realistic expectations for Brian Dozier (14:30) and Robinson Cano (18:00), are Dee Gordon (20:00) and DJ LeMahieu (22:30) being undervalued, why fantasy owners should invest in Daniel Murphy with confidence (24:45), balancing risk with Rougned Odor (27:00), are there any reasons for concern with Ian Kinsler (30:00), Jason Kipnis (32:30) or Dustin Pedroia (34:30), the increased value of Logan Forsythe in Los Angeles (39:30), using Javier Baez or Jose Peraza at second base (43:30), and finally reveal their late round “sleeper" picks at the position (46:00).
The Twins apparently passed on an opportunity to acquire highly-touted pitching prospect Jose De Leon, who went from the Los Angeles Dodgers to the Tampa Bay Rays this week, in exchange for infielder Logan Forsythe. Did the Twins make the right decision holding out for more? Or should they have pounced on a chance to land De Leon? With Derek Wetmore out sick, Phil Mackey and Judd Zulgad discuss on their radio show. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Alex recaps the past week in Red Sox baseball, and sifts through which players are worth watching in the final month of the regular season inside this edition of “Without a Curse.” The hometown team took two of three games from the Jays and Rays over the last seven days, as Clay Buchholz tossed two gems. Unfortunately for him, Koji Uehara gave the lead Monday night in what has been his only appearance over the last week. The intent behind Rays infielder Logan Forsythe’s elbow to Dustin Pedroia’s head, Buchholz’s enigmatic couple of weeks and the Rays’ insistence on perverting baseball (it will make sense once you listen) are discussed as well. Arguably the most exciting portion of the week for the Red Sox involved Cuban defector Rusney Castillo, who played in his first game in more than a year Saturday. The club’s principal owner John Henry said the Red Sox’s inability to land Jose Abreu prompted their aggressive pursuit of Castillo, which is predictable but slightly unsettling to hear. Alex analyzes the AL East standings in the “Around the League” segment, and also gives his take on the Athletics’ wretched performance since the team acquired Jon Lester. It seems as if Billy Beane may have been a bit too aggressive for his own good at the trade deadline. Email Alex, ajreimer0@gmail.com, and follow him on Twitter, @AlexReimer1. Read him on BostInno.com, and listen to him Fridays from 3-6 p.m. EST on Glenn Ordway’s “Big Show Unfiltered” program.
