The first day of spring training is traditionally a joyous time of renewal, but on Blue Jays Day 1, manager John Schneider opened with a trio of injury reports — OF Anthony Santander, RHP Shane Bieber and RHP Bowden Francis — plus a mutual mea culpa surrounding RHP Jose Berrios and his bail out during the World Series. Both sides now say the Berrios situation could have been handled better. Is all forgiven? Already, less than a week into camp, the Jays have made a trade to shore up the outfield for the loss of Santander. Griff and Mal discuss the role of OF Jesus Sanchez, acquired from the Astros for OF Joey Loperfido, returning to his original team. Is there a role for Berrios that would see him make 30+ starts for the Jays or, as the boys discuss, with the club's Top 10 depth of starters, is a trade more likely with three years left on his contract and an opt-out looming. With $20M remaining on his final season in Philly, what happened to prompt the release of volatile OF Nick Castellanos. And more.

Is history repeating itself at Comerica Park? Right now, every Tigers fan is on edge. With Tarik Skubal entering his final year of team control and a massive $13 million gap in arbitration filing, the "hesitancy" from the front office feels all too familiar. We have a generational, two-time Cy Young winner in his prime, and the clock is ticking.But as much as the Skubal situation keeps us up at night, is it really the biggest "What If" in franchise history?In today's episode of Buffed Up Sports, I'm going back to the era that still haunts Detroit. We're talking about the 2011–2014 stretch—a time when our rotation featured Justin Verlander, Max Scherzer, Rick Porcello, David Price and Anibal Sanchez, with Miguel Cabrera winning Triple Crowns at the plate.What is your biggest Tigers "What If"? Is it the Skubal contract, the 2013 bullpen, or something else entirely? Let's get into it in the comments.

MLB Network Analyst and Intentional Talk Host Ryan Dempster joined OverDrive to discuss the Blue Jays and Dodgers' matchup, the Blue Jays' journey leading to their first win, Max Scherzer on the mound and the projection for the game, Bo Bichette's role on the field, the team carrying the momentum and more.

The 2025 edition of the World Series got off to a raucous start after the Toronto Blue Jays took Game 1 with an offensive blitz, leaving everyone wondering if this could be the year the Commissioner's Trophy lands in Canada. However, Yoshinobu Yamamoto put those early thoughts to rest with his Game 2 gem that helped the Los Angeles Dodgers even the series at a game apiece. With the Fall Classic now shifting to Dodger Stadium, the question is whether both teams will be returning to Toronto before a champion is crowned.On this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman recap all the action from the first two games, including the Blue Jays' impressive offensive onslaught in Game 1 — highlighted by the first-ever pinch-hit grand slam in World Series history. They also discuss the complete-game shutout from Yamamoto in Game 2 that has helped establish him as one of the best pitchers in all of baseball.Later in the episode, Jake and Jordan preview what to expect from Game 3 in L.A., with Tyler Glasnow taking on Max Scherzer to see who will go up 2–1 in the series. The guys also discuss the San Francisco Giants hiring Tony Vitello as their new manager and why it's such an out-of-the-box move.1:44 – The Opener: Yamamoto's Game 2 gem8:49 – Recapping Dodgers' victory20:54 – Game 1 recap32:28 – Addison Barger sleeps on the couch38:14 – World Series Game 3 preview43:31 – Giants hire Tony Vitello Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

It was a non-stop ride of sports drama! The Rangers can't score at home, making Boomer cranky and forcing Gio to start rooting for them. The Jets are fielding trade calls, Tyrod Taylor might start, and callers joked about an AI head coach — Gio thinks he could sell it. Daniel Jones is on fire with the Colts, the Chiefs are back on track, and Lamar Jackson looks set to return. On the field, the Lions crushed the Bucs, Mike Evans is out with a concussion and broken collarbone, Seahawks squeak past the Texans, and Tiki Barber unloads on the Giants' defense. The Blue Jays head to the World Series thanks to George Springer, Max Scherzer is living the dream, C-Lo's X account gets hacked, WFAN callers can buy coats with their names, and Gio adds another Italian American award to his shelf. Chaos, wins, losses, and jaw-dropping moments all in one wild day!

Boomer's fed up with the Rangers struggling at home, while NFL chaos heats up with the Jets fielding trade calls and the Giants missing a WR opportunity.

Jerry kicked things off with the roar of the Lions steamrolling the Bucs — and it wasn't pretty. Mike Evans went down hard, suffering a broken collarbone and a concussion.

Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley banter about ALCS Game 4 and NLCS Game 3, with an emphasis on Max Scherzer's must-win mentality and why his hyped-up mound and start-day demeanor stops just short of scanning as too intense, the Dodgers' likeability (or lack thereof), and repetitive promos.
