Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner break down MLB Saturday from a betting perspective. They open by focusing on the early matchup between the Tigers and Rays. Both lean toward Tampa Bay, highlighting Ryan Pepio's strong recent form—3.11 ERA over 15 starts and 11 strikeouts in his last outing. Pepio's underappreciated market value and Detroit's surprising top MLB record are discussed, with consensus on Rays at -120. For Orioles vs Yankees, Clark Schmidt is praised for allowing only three earned runs across four recent starts. Zach Eflin, although historically solid against the Yankees, struggled in his last outing. Both lean toward Orioles as underdogs and prefer the under 9.5 total due to Yankee Stadium's scoring tendencies. In Reds vs Cardinals, Sonny Gray's strong home record (5-1, 2.85 ERA) contrasts with his struggles against Cincinnati (4.70 ERA). Without a Reds starter listed, Griffin leans toward the Reds due to line inflation. Munaf might back St. Louis if run line odds are favorable. Seattle at Chicago is discussed with attention to wind's effect at Wrigley Field. Emerson Hancock has pitched well recently, but the Mariners lost his last four starts due to poor run support. Cade Horton's 2.70 ERA at home is noted. Both hosts await wind direction before betting, with a potential over expected. In Milwaukee vs Minnesota, Quintana's inconsistency and walk rate are flagged, while Richardson is labeled a weak rotation fill-in. Despite concerns, both see value in Brewers at plus money. For White Sox vs Blue Jays, Berríos' strong history against Chicago (14-6, 3.16 ERA) supports Munaf's best bet: Jays -1.5 run line at -105. Griffin notes the White Sox's poor weekend performances and questions their motivation. Rangers vs Pirates features concerns around Kumar Rocker's splits (15.09 ERA on road) and Mitch Keller's unreliable late innings. Despite bad offenses, both expect a high-scoring game. The Braves visit the Marlins in a matchup where Grant Holmes is riding a 15-strikeout game. Yuri Perez has struggled mightily vs Atlanta. Both favor a Braves team total over as their offense heats up. Kansas City faces San Diego with Dylan Cease showing volatility. Royals are praised for recent form, including a sweep of Texas, and bullpen strength. Hosts lean Royals ML and under in the first five innings. Mets vs Phillies highlights Griffin Canning's struggles—10 earned runs in his last two outings—against Mick Abel's potential. Philadelphia is seen as cheap at -112, with both supporting the home side. In Arizona vs Colorado, Merrill Kelly's dominance (7-0, 1.60 ERA vs Rockies since 2022) is emphasized, including a 2.03 ERA at Coors. Yet due to rising temperatures and Palmquist's late fade, they suggest betting over. Astros vs Angels is discussed with Walter's solid last start (6.2 IP, 1 ER, 9 K) and Soriano's overall reliability. However, the Angels' 1-5 record vs lefties at home tilts the pick to Astros at -110. Guardians vs A's offers little confidence. Luis Ortiz's high walk rate and Mitch Spence's Triple-A quality result in a lean toward the over and a mild interest in the A's if plus money improves. Nationals vs Dodgers sees Jake Irvin's night game struggles (5.16 ERA) and Dustin May's inconsistency. The hosts recommend Dodgers team total over or full game over. Lastly, Boston visits San Francisco with Brayan Bello consistent and Landen Roop unproven. While Giants are tough at home, the under 7.5 is the preferred angle due to low scoring projections. Griffin's best bet is Rays ML behind Pepio, while Munaf backs Berríos and Toronto on the run line. The episode closes with promo code RBI20 for a discounted betting package.

Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey joins host Adam Bittner to ponder some Steelers over/unders for the 2025 season. Will Aaron Rodgets surpass 3,200 yards and 22 touchdowns? Will either Jaylen Warren or Kaleb Johnson threaten the 1,000-yard mark? Can DK Metcalf get over the 1,000-yard threshold that's been a problem for Steelers receivers including George Pickens in recent years? And how many sacks will T.J. Watt record? Our duo tackles those questions, plus some Penguins topics. Can GM Kyle Dubas and new coach Dan Muse return this club to Stanley Cup caliber in short order? Or is there too big a gap with the back-to-back champion Florida Panthers right now? What should we make of conflicting reports about Evgeni Malkin's future? Will this season definitely be his last in the NHL? Or could he come back for another chance to win next to Sidney Crosby and Kris Letang? And how seriously should we take a potential sale of the team back to Mario Lemieux and Ron Burkle? Then in the third segment, airing on the PG's Pirates YouTube channel, the guys talk about malaise that has set in after an encouraging early run from manager Don Kelly's team following Derek Shelton's firing. Are fans beginning to tune out? Why hasn't Ben Cherington made a move to salvage the season, as owner Bob Nutting had suggested might be possible? Could Ke'Bryan Hayes and Mitch Keller be among names that are moved before the trade deadline? Why hasn't Tommy Pham been cut yet? And did the Pirates miss an opportunity to create some must-see TV by matching up Paul Skenes and Tarik Skubal during a double header against the Detroit Tigers?

Former MLB Pitcher Josh Towers and Scott Seidenberg talk about all the blowouts in baseball this year, the most wins in June market and the latest stories around the game. In this June 2nd episode of The Inside Pitch, Scott Seidenberg and Josh Towers analyze MLB's increasing blowouts. This season has already seen 46 games decided by 10+ runs, a record high since 2004. Towers attributes this to rushed player promotions, shortened drafts, minor league cuts, and analytics failing to teach players in-game adjustments. They cite examples such as Padres overcoming a 6-0 deficit against the Marlins and Diamondbacks' collapse due to emotional hangovers, underscoring how coaching and mental preparedness affect outcomes. The duo discusses bullpen usage's critical role in betting, highlighting the Red Sox's rested bullpen as an advantage. Towers explains that rested pens allow better in-game flexibility and reduce reliance on struggling relievers. Player development also takes center stage with the debate over Roman Anthony's MLB readiness. While his AAA stats are strong, Towers emphasizes non-statistical growth areas like situational hitting and emotional maturity. Craig Breslow's careful approach reflects a balance between development and team competitiveness. Looking at June betting markets, the Yankees, Dodgers, and Tigers share favorite status at +650. Towers favors the Tigers due to their home-heavy, softer schedule. He also projects the Nationals as a 2026 division contender, crediting their steady development. They examine profitability trends, identifying the Tigers as the most profitable moneyline and run line team, while the Rockies remain the best team to fade. The Cubs, Cardinals, Guardians, and Mets round out the most profitable sides, while Orioles, Braves, A's, and White Sox follow the Rockies in fade profitability. The conversation shifts to run support, highlighting pitchers like Andrew Heaney, who receives only 2.17 runs per start, despite a 3.39 ERA. Others like Kyle Freeland and Mitch Keller face similar challenges. Meanwhile, Max Fried benefits from 7.17 runs per start, aiding his success. Towers explains how run support impacts pitcher performance and confidence, influencing managerial decisions and pitcher development. Later, they address Corbin Burns' elbow injury, which appears severe as he was seen mouthing “elbow is done” after leaving a game. Towers elaborates on the biomechanics behind such injuries, emphasizing the importance of shoulder alignment and core stability to prevent stress on the elbow. Towers credits his own injury-free career to disciplined maintenance of these mechanics. They close discussing the Mariners retiring Ichiro's and Randy Johnson's number 51, an unprecedented honor. Towers reflects on his pitching strategy against Ichiro, where focusing on a single pitch location neutralized Ichiro's strengths.

The conversation shifts to run support, highlighting pitchers like Andrew Heaney, who receives only 2.17 runs per start, despite a 3.39 ERA. Others like Kyle Freeland and Mitch Keller face similar challenges. Meanwhile, Max Fried benefits from 7.17 runs per start, aiding his success. Towers explains how run support impacts pitcher performance and confidence, influencing managerial decisions and pitcher development. Later, they address Corbin Burns' elbow injury, which appears severe as he was seen mouthing “elbow is done” after leaving a game. Towers elaborates on the biomechanics behind such injuries, emphasizing the importance of shoulder alignment and core stability to prevent stress on the elbow. Towers credits his own injury-free career to disciplined maintenance of these mechanics. They close discussing the Mariners retiring Ichiro's and Randy Johnson's number 51, an unprecedented honor. Towers reflects on his pitching strategy against Ichiro, where focusing on a single pitch location neutralized Ichiro's strengths.

Before their recap begins, the duo discusses the injury news pertaining to right-hander Jared Jones, who will miss the next 10-12 months after getting surgery to repair a UCL injury in his right elbow. The discussion then pivots to the Pirates pitching staff, which, with names like Mitch Keller, Paul Skenes, Bailey Falter and Andrew Heaney, has been nothing short of dominant under new manager Don Kelly. But for as good as the pitching has been, the bats have struggled, tying an MLB record for 26 straight games with four or less runs scored. The video is concluded with a quick look at the team's upcoming series against the Brewers, which includes a first big-league start from right-hander Mike Burrows on Thursday evening.

Are the Pirates heading toward yet another five-year rebuild following the firing of Derek Shelton as manager and the continued lack of results from general manager Ben Cherington? Or should owner Bob Nutting consider other options if he makes front-office changes at some point in the coming weeks and months? Could a rebuild lead to a trade of star pitcher Paul Skenes sooner rather than later as national MLB insiders including ESPN's Jeff Passan have speculated recently? Or should they keep him in their rotation alongside names like Mitch Keller for as long as possible? And when will it finally be time for the team to promote star pitching prospect Bubba Chandler? Paul ponders those questions and more.

The conversation starts with a rundown of the last six years of the Ben Cherington and Derek Shelton era, with some surprise that a season with moderately expectations — internally, at least — has gone the way it has. Is it time for a managerial change or in the front office? Then Noah describes what he saw on his trip to St. Louis and how bad the vibes have gotten in the Pirates clubhouse. What went wrong during the sweep? Is Paul Skenes pitching well enough?
