(SHOW OPEN): The Yankees running it back isn't a bad thing and hamate bone hysteria hits Major League Baseball.
Spring has sprung for your Toronto Blue Jays, who are gathering in Dunedin to begin the drive for a second straight American League championship—and, ideally, more—as we speak (or, you know, as you read this). But that's not all that's been sprung this week in Jaysland. The team has sprung some fairly significant news here at the dawn of camp, announcing that the shoulder that torpedoed Anthony Santander's first season now requires surgery that may make his second year a write-off as well, that Shane Bieber continues to be dealing with fatigue in his surgically repaired arm and will be brought along slowly, that Bowden Francis is going under the knife and will be out for the season, and—though this was more a Sportsnet thing than a Jays thing—that the legendary Buck Martinez has decided to hang up his microphone, announcing his retirement after an incredible career in Major League Baseball that began before Woodstock.Not great, Bob!

Robby Little stops by to talk about his fatherhood journey. He shares the values he looks to instill into his kids.

He shares the inspiration that gave him the idea for SLIDEMVP. In addition, he talks about how his product is not just for kids since teams in Major League Baseball also use SLIDEMVP. Lastly, we finish the interview with the Fatherhood Quick Five. About Robby Little As a dad and coach, inspired by some awkward slides and makeshift cardboard sliding tools, Coach Robby asked: “How can I help players slide better?” After countless brainstorming sessions and prototypes, the SLIDEMVP™ was born. Players immediately had fun, and their sliding skills improved dramatically. To further support athletes, Coach Robby has hosted multiple sliding clinics, building confidence and teaching techniques like the pop-up slide. Proudly manufactured in the USA, SLIDEMVP™ is player-tested and coach-approved. It enhances sliding technique, boosts speed, and improves agility on the basepaths. Most importantly, SLIDEMVP™ helps players build confidence and take their game to the next level. About The Art of Fatherhood Podcast The Art of Fatherhood Podcast follows the journey of fatherhood.

On this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY, we dig into the archives for an interview with the late Jim Robson, legendary Canadian sportscaster who was a beloved figure in British Columbia for decades. News broke today - February 10, 2026 - that Mr. Robson has passed away at age 91. Robson was the “Voice of the Canucks” on radio and TV from their inaugural NHL season in Vancouver in 1970 until 1999. Years before that, Jim Robson began his radio career as a 17-year-old, calling basketball games in Port Alberni, British Columbia, in the early 1950s. He was even a finalist in 1969 for the role of “play by play man” for the one-season-and-done Seattle Pilots of Major League Baseball. Feliks Banel interviewed Mr. Robson in January 2021 for a look ahead at the Seattle Kraken's expansion season in autumn 2021.

Welcome to 听故事说中文, the podcast where stories come alive to help you improve your Chinese language proficiency and cultural competency. In today's episode, we are diving into the world of sports, but we aren't talking about loud personalities or flashy headlines. Instead, we're looking at Yoshinobu Yamamoto, a pitcher who redefined success through quiet persistence. Yamamoto wasn't the tallest or the most physically imposing player on the field. In fact, many underestimated him early on. But while others relied on raw power, Yamamoto relied on something arguably more difficult to master: precision and emotional discipline. From his humble beginnings in Okayama to the high-stakes mounds of Major League Baseball, his journey is a masterclass in how to handle pressure without saying a word. ************************************************************ Support Our Podcast If our podcast brings value to your life and you'd like to help us continue creating great content, consider becoming a patron for as little as $7 a month.

Tarik Skubal just reset the arbitration market. The Detroit Tigers ace won a record $32 million arbitration case for 2026, the largest award ever for an arbitration-eligible pitcher. The ruling raises new questions across Major League Baseball about how teams handle young frontline starters before free agency.For the Texas Rangers, the timing is interesting. Jack Leiter is a key part of the club's long-term rotation plans alongside Jacob deGrom, Nathan Eovaldi and MacKenzie Gore. With pitching salaries climbing and arbitration awards trending higher, does it make more sense for the Rangers to explore a team-friendly contract extension before Leiter's price climbs?

Tarik Skubal has 54 career wins in Major League Baseball, but on Thursday he may have earned his most lucrative victory yet—against his current club. The two-time Cy Young Award winner won his arbitration hearing against the Detroit Tigers, and the ramifications could be larger than many anticipate.On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss the historic win for Skubal, his agent Scott Boras, and the entire Players Association. Skubal will make a record $32 million after winning his arbitration hearing. This decision sets a precedent for future cases and could help determine Skubal's long-term future in Detroit. With the Tigers' acquisition of Framber Valdez, could the team be more willing to move on from their ace at some point this season?Later, Jake and Jordan break down some of the most intriguing rosters from the World Baseball Classic after every team revealed its squad Thursday night, including which teams may have been impacted by insurance issues. They then make their picks for The Good, The Bad & The Uggla, including an update on the Emmanuel Clase gambling investigation and an incredibly unique giveaway from the Toronto Blue Jays this season.2:02 – The Opener: Skubal wins vs. Tigers11:03 – Scott Boras Scoreboard update20:21 – Tigers sign Framber Valdez31:15 – Around the League: WBC rosters53:02 – The Good, The Bad & The Uggla Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

In an era where training is increasingly automated, optimized, and reduced to dashboards and numbers, it's easy to lose the human element that actually drives performance. This conversation explores how rhythm, feel, load, and coaching presence shape not just outputs, but adaptability, resilience, and long-term athletic growth. If you've ever felt that “something is missing” in modern training environments, this episode speaks directly to that gap. In this episode, Paul and I explore training as a live performance rather than a static program. We discuss using early isometric and axial loading as a readiness anchor, how downbeat rhythm and eccentric timing drive better outputs, and why chasing numbers too aggressively can undermine real performance. We dive into music, movement, art, and coaching intuition, and how creating alive, rhythmic sessions builds stronger athletes, and better coaches, without relying solely on rigid protocols or excessive monitoring.

Use uneven terrain and elevation to naturally regulate intensity instead of forcing outputs. Let the environment create variability rather than programming it artificially. Periodically remove mirrors, clocks, and screens to reconnect athletes with internal feedback. 6:00 – The role of community in training Training outcomes improve when athletes feel socially anchored. Design sessions where athletes work together rather than in isolation. Use shared challenges to build collective buy-in and accountability. View community as a performance multiplier, not a soft add-on. 12:15 – Performance and the observer effect Athletes change behavior when they know they are being measured. Use testing sparingly to avoid distorting natural movement. Train without constant feedback to preserve authentic effort. Recognize when measurement helps clarity and when it creates tension. 23:27 – Shifting training protocols Protocols should evolve with the athlete, not remain fixed. Regularly reassess whether a method still serves the athlete's needs. Avoid loyalty to systems that no longer produce adaptation. Let context, stress, and readiness guide training decisions. 32:32 – Balancing data and intuition Numbers inform decisions, but intuition completes them. Use data as a reference point, not the final authority. Trust experienced pattern recognition when data feels incomplete. Teach younger coaches how to observe, not just measure. 42:14 – Efficacy of isometric training Isometrics offer clarity, control, and nervous system regulation. Use isometrics to teach position awareness and intent. Apply them during deloads or recovery periods. Emphasize quality of tension rather than maximal force. 47:23 – Five-minute wonders Short, focused training can still drive adaptation. Use brief sessions to maintain rhythm during busy schedules. Prioritize intent and execution over duration. Stack small doses consistently rather than chasing long sessions. 53:28 – The art of adaptation Adaptation is individual, nonlinear, and context dependent. Avoid expecting identical outcomes from identical programs. Adjust based on response, not expectation. Respect that progress can look quiet before it looks obvious. 57:44 – Embracing the subconscious Much of performance operates below conscious control. Reduce over-cueing to allow automatic movement to emerge. Trust repetition and environment to shape behavior. Coach less, observe more. 1:28:06 – A playlist for performance Music influences emotional and physical rhythm. Use music intentionally to shape session tone. Match tempo to desired movement qualities. Allow athletes some ownership over the training atmosphere. Quotes from Paul Cater “Training is as much about remembering what we are as it is about building what we want to become.” “The moment measurement changes behavior, you have to question what you are actually training.” “Community is not separate from performance. It is performance.” “Coaching is an art because people are not repeatable systems.” “Isometrics give you honesty. There's nowhere to hide.” “Data can guide you, but it cannot feel the athlete.” “Adaptation does not care about your program, only your response.” “Sometimes the best thing you can do as a coach is stop talking.” About Paul Cater Paul Cater is a veteran strength and conditioning coach with over 25 years of experience working across professional baseball, collegiate athletics, tactical populations, and high-performance team sport environments. He has served in leadership and performance roles with organizations including Major League Baseball, NCAA programs, and private high-performance facilities, and is known for his ability to blend high-intensity strength training with rhythm, coordination, and ecological skill development. Paul's coaching philosophy emphasizes gravity, timing, and rhythm as foundational drivers of athletic performance. Rather than relying solely on rigid programming or isolated testing, his sessions are built around early exposure to meaningful load, isometric and inertial work, and rhythmic constraints that reveal readiness, alignment, and intent in real time. His work integrates elements of sprint mechanics, change of direction, elastic strength, and movement artistry to create training environments that are both physically effective and psychologically engaging. Currently working in a collegiate performance setting, Paul is deeply interested in coaching as a live, relational craft; treating each session as a performance that develops not just outputs, but awareness, adaptability, and ownership in athletes. His approach bridges traditional strength training with concepts from sport, art, music, and survival movement, offering a perspective that challenges purely automated or data-driven models of performance.
