Behavioral scientists have been exploring whether a psychological reset can lead to lasting change. In this update of a 2021 episode, we survey evidence from the London Underground, Major League Baseball, and New Year's resolutions to look at accidental fresh starts, forced fresh starts, fresh starts that backfire — and the ones that succeed.  SOURCES:Katy Milkman, professor at the Wharton School.Andy Byford, former commissioner of Transport for London.Ferdinand Rauch, economist at the University of St. Gallen.Hengchen Dai, professor at U.C.L.A.'s Anderson School of Management.Bob Tewksbury, former big-league pitcher. RESOURCES:“A Large-Scale Experiment on New Year's Resolutions: Approach-Oriented Goals are More Successful than Avoidance-Oriented Goals,” by Martin Oscarsson, Per Carlbring, Gerhard Andersson, and Alexander Rozental (PLOS ONE, 2020).“A Double-Edged Sword: How and Why Resetting Performance Metrics Affects Motivation and Performance,” by Hengchen Dai (Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, 2018).“The Benefits of Forced Experimentation: Striking Evidence from the London Underground Network,” by Shaun Larcom, Ferdinand Rauch, and Tim Willems (2017).“Framing the Future: The Risks of Pre-Commitment Nudges and Potential of Fresh Start Messaging,” by John Beshears, Hengchen Dai, Katherine L.

Host Tom Verducci welcomes the coming New Year by celebrating the 90th birthday of Sandy Koufax! Tom looks back and the accomplishments of Koufax and how his career started and how he ended as a Hall of Famer, 4x World Series Champion, and 3x Cy Young Award winner. Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh wins the SI Breakout Player Award. Tom documents his career from getting cut in high school to making the Major Leagues. What happens next for Raleigh and how does he respond after his 60 home run season? Pitchers are throwing faster than ever, but using less fastballs overall. Tom brings out the data from this season to look at where the use of the fastball is heading. Throwing 100mph used to be an anomaly, now every team has a pitcher that hits the mark. The number of 100mph pitches has quadrupled in just the 6 years! Tom wraps up 2025 with some MLB news on the A's and the future of Alex Bregman.

We begin our look back on the top stories of 2025, pretty much where we left off at the end of 2024, with the Browns and the team's planned move to Brook Park for a new covered stadium and mixed-use development. Over the course of the last year, Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb and Cuyahoga County Executive Chris Ronayne battled the Haslam Sports Group over everything from the Modell Law -- which is meant to make it hard for Ohio teams to move from their home cities -- to the height of the stadium to a refusal to kick in public money. By December the fight was all but over, the Browns are moving to Brook Park, without county money but with $600 million from the state. The county remained steadfast in refusing to kick in any funding, and the Browns moved forward without it. The story begins our retrospective of the top local stories of 2025. We will cover the top statehouse stories in a year ender that will drop next week. The Akron Public Schools went through a rapid change of leadership in the spring after months of controversy and complaint about the actions and management style of Superintendent Michael Robinson. In April, the board accepted his resignation, after less than two years on the job. Then, it immediately hired his successor without conducting a search. East Cleveland had had three people serving as mayor in 2025. Brandon King, mayor when the year began, was convicted on public corruption charges in May and removed from that job. Before that, while facing trial, Sandra Morgan was appointed interim mayor. Once he was convicted, the charter called for Council President Lateek Shabazz to become the mayor. He was defeated in November by Morgan, who will return to the mayor's office. The mayor's office in Cleveland Heights was a revolving door this year. Voters recalled the city's first elected mayor, Kahlil Seren, in September. The recall vote resulted from a tumultuous period in Cleveland Heights City Hall that saw Seren and his wife accused of creating a hostile work environment. Seren denied those accusations. Guardians pitchers Emmanuel Clase, the superstar closer, and Luis Ortiz, a starter with promise, were suspended with pay in July as part of a Major League Baseball investigation into betting. By November, the pair had been indicted on charges they rigged pitches to help bettors win "prop" or situational bets. The two now face trial in May. Residents around the Shaker Lakes, who already saw Horseshoe lake drained, have rallied against a proposal by the Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District to drain the remaining Lower Lake and turning, that, too, into parkland. The sewer district, responsible for spending on flood control, had planned to replace the lower lake dam, but said new data showed draining the lake would be the best, and most economical, flood control measure. The "Sound of Ideas" brought together stakeholders for a Community Tour discussion in August.

The Washington Nationals face a defining decision with MacKenzie Gore as the left-hander enters the heart of his prime and moves closer to free agency. On the Nats Minutecast Podcast, we break down Gore's 2025 season, from his dominant All-Star first half to a turbulent second half shaped by organizational upheaval, injuries, and some of the worst run support in Major League Baseball. Despite a 5–15 record and a 4.17 ERA, Gore's swing-and-miss stuff, elite breaking balls, and league-leading strikeout rates tell a very different story — one of a frontline starter whose true value goes far beyond the win-loss column. With new president of baseball operations Paul Toboni emphasizing player development, the Nationals must decide whether they can realistically contend during Gore's remaining years of team control or whether trading him at peak value makes more sense. Interest from contenders like the New York Yankees underscores just how coveted Gore is around the league, especially at his projected arbitration salary. This episode explores whether Washington should build its future rotation around Gore or leverage his value to accelerate the rebuild, making it clear that whatever choice comes next will reveal exactly where the Nationals believe they are in their competitive timeline.

Bob reflects on lessons learned from elite athletes and coaches, his experiences navigating major shifts in professional sport, and the responsibility coaches carry beyond performance outcomes.The episode also moves into deeply human territory, as Bob shares powerful reflections on fatherhood, leadership, and a meaningful experience supporting New York firefighters and their families in the aftermath of 9/11.This is a thoughtful conversation about legacy, service, and what it truly means to leave your mark—both in sport and in life. If you liked this EP, please take the time to rate and comment, share with a friend, and connect with us on social channels IG @Kingopain, TW @BuiltbyScott, LI+FB Scott Livingston.

The Cincinnati Reds could be one bold move away from becoming serious contenders, and a potential trade for Luis Robert Jr. might be exactly what they need. In this video, we break down the idea of the Reds trading for Luis Robert, what it would cost, and how he could instantly change the outlook of Cincinnati's lineup. Luis Robert is one of the most dynamic players in Major League Baseball, combining elite power, speed, and Gold Glove–caliber defense in center field. With the Chicago White Sox possibly entering a retooling phase, trade rumors are heating up around Robert, and the Cincinnati Reds are a team that makes a lot of sense as a potential landing spot. But would the Reds be willing to part with top prospects or young MLB talent to make this deal happen? We'll analyze how Luis Robert would fit into the Reds' roster, how he complements stars like Elly De La Cruz and Matt McLain, and whether Cincinnati's farm system gives them enough ammunition to pull off a blockbuster trade. We'll also discuss contract details, injury concerns, and the overall risk vs. reward of making such a high-profile move. If the Reds are serious about competing in the NL Central and making a deep playoff run, trading for a superstar like Luis Robert could be a franchise-altering decision. Is this the right time for Cincinnati to go all-in, or should they stay patient with their young core? Let us know your thoughts in the comments: Should the Cincinnati Reds trade for Luis Robert? What would you give up to make the deal happen? Don't forget to like, subscribe, and turn on notifications for more Reds news, MLB trade rumors, and in-depth baseball analysis.

The Washington Nationals have officially turned the page by hiring Anirudh Kilambi as their new general manager, and the backstory matters just as much as the résumé. Kilambi's lifelong obsession with baseball — forged as a Giants fan in Northern California and sharpened through years of self-imposed limits, rule-bending inning counts, and relentless curiosity — paints the picture of a front-office executive who didn't just fall into the sport, but lived it. At just 31 years old, Kilambi becomes one of the youngest GMs in Major League Baseball, joining the Nationals after four years with the Philadelphia Phillies, where he rose to assistant GM and gained a reputation as a sharp, data-driven evaluator with strong people skills. For the Washington Nationals, this hire signals a philosophical shift under new president of baseball operations Paul Toboni. Kilambi represents a modern MLB executive: analytically inclined, development-focused, and deeply invested in process over flash. As the Nationals continue their rebuild and attempt to turn elite draft capital and young talent into sustainable success, Kilambi's obsession-turned-expertise could be the defining factor. This isn't just a new general manager — it's a bet on vision, preparation, and a long-term plan to bring winning baseball back to Washington. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

NYS Halls of Fame Podcast's Inaugural Episode With Former MLB Pitcher, David Palmer Welcome to the first episode of the NYS Halls of Fame Podcast as your hosts, Rene LeRoux, Jeff Cohen, and Leonard Aberman present interviews with members of the New York State Baseball, Basketball, and Hockey Halls of Fame.  We thank you for joining us. David Palmer was inducted into the New York State Baseball Hall of Fame in 2016.  He is a former Major League Baseball pitcher who played for the Montreal Expos, Atlanta Braves, Philadelphia Phillies, and Detroit Tigers.  David played with exceptional players during his career, including Montreal Expos teammates, Gary Carter, Andre Dawson, and Tim Raines who are all members of the National Baseball Hall of Fame.  At one time David was credited for pitching a five inning perfect game which was cancelled due to inclement weather.  That accomplishment was later stricken from the record books due to a new rule requiring no hitters/perfect games to go at least nine innings.  David shares great stories and is a perfect guest for the show's first episode.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Finally, they react to an updated ruling on the Derek Bender Rule 21(a) investigation. Links:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join the Tipping Pitches Patreon ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tipping Pitches merchandise ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Call the Tipping Pitches voicemail: 785-422-5881Tipping Pitches features original music from Steve Sladkowski of PUP.

More Post-Dispatch podcasts.  Please consider subscribing. There is no bumper sticker, no buzzy campaign slogan that captures the challenge facing Major League Baseball and its 30 clubs as economic disparity grows and the expiration of the Collective Bargaining Agreement arrives. A complex issue requires a complex solution. Or does it? A brief conversation about the Cardinals' spending strategy and past history with free agency, based on research done for The Write Fielder newsletter, spirals into a much larger debate between Best Podcast in Baseball host Derrick Goold and guest Kevin Wheeler, of KMOX/104.1 FM. After detailing how the Cardinals got into their current predicament, the questions that follow are two-fold: Do the Cardinals need to change their approach to free agency to return to contention, and does MLB need to change its economic structure for the Cardinals to have a new approach to free agency. The debate ignites from there. Wheeler makes a compelling case for how the Cardinals needed to "swim in deeper waters" for free agency and a more conservative approach caught up with them. He adds that a team now focused on development needs to produce its own stars. Goold counters by wondering what World Series contenders have developed their star and not had to outfit the roster with free-agent moves to complete the championship-caliber roster. The Yankees may have Aaron Judge, and they used prospects to trade for Juan Soto once, but they also signed Gerrit Cole. The Kansas City Royals have a homegrown, bona fide star in Bobby Witt Jr. But what's next? That's where the economics of the game enter the conversation and Wheeler's stance that the "big boys" need to play ball for the betterment of the game, and if that means taking less or receiving a smaller cut to spur and require the spending of the smaller markets so be it. Goold makes a suggestion for pulling that off that Wheeler contends would be difficult to sell to fans who what the tangible bumper sticker, not the boring details of how it gets done. Eventually they agree on one. It's the TV deal. Wheeler's arguments that hinge on a comparison to the NBA and its salary cap format require there to be a much larger national TV deal, one closer to what the NBA has. And that is the crux of this. Once that's in place then negotiations about a salarly floor, shared revenue, and an international draft to better balance talent coming from abroad are all more tangible because the largest issue -- the growing gulch between teams -- has been bridged. In its 13th season as one of the first and most widely heard podcasts on baseball and the Cardinals, the Best Podcast in Baseball has reached a new season-high with 30 episodes. Each episode is sponsored weekly by Closets by Design of St. Louis, is a production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and lead baseball writer Derrick Goold.
