Chase Dollander makes his Major League debut and Zac Veen gets promoted to the Colorado Rockies on the same day! Is this the turning point for an organization in search of a new identity? And are there more prospects in the pipeline ready to make an impact in 2025?What are the realistic expectations for Dollander and Veen this season? Should either of them catapult into contention for the National League Rookie of the Year Award?

1975 was a banner year for Rookies in Major League Baseball. Fred Lynn broke onto the scene in Boston and won Rookie of the Year and MVP… the first player ever to do that. And in the National League, John, “The Count” Montefusco took home the honors of National League Rookie of the Year. The Giants hurler narrowly beat out The Kid, Gary Carter, who went on to have a Hall of Fame career as a catcher. The only other player to get a vote for American League Rookie of the Year was Lynn's teammate, a future Hall of Famer himself, Jim Rice who had a fantastic freshman year. The 3rd Hall of Famer in that rookie class was a pitcher in Cleveland by the name of Dennis Eckersley. But he wasn't the only young stud on that staff… Enter The Amazing Emu… Jim Kern.  A non-drafted pitcher out of Midland, Michigan, Kern didn't rise quickly through the minors and took a detour when he joined the marines in 1969. After a year of serving and 5 more in the reserves, Kern's baseball career started to take off and after a brief callus to the bigs in '74, he came up for good in '75. As a starter he had inconsistent success but with Frank Robinson as his manager, he converted to a receiver in 1976 and a star was born. One of the hardest throwers in the game, Kern took to his new role immediately, winning 10 games and saving 15 with an ERA of 2.37 over 117 innings. He was an American League All-Star the next three seasons culminating in 1979 when he won 13 games out of the pen and saved another 29 while amassing 143 innings with an ERA of 1.57. A season for the ages for the 6'5 flamethrower. Unfortunately injuries plagued Kern for much of the rest of his career. He bounced around the league and other than a resurgence in 1982 for a bad Reds team, he never was as dominant as he was during that 4-year stretch from 1976-79… On the Past Our Prime podcast, Kern tells us about his journey from being undrafted out of high school, to the marines to a 3-time All-Star reliever from 1977 to 1979. He tells us about his days in Cleveland that included playing for the first black manager in baseball history, Hall of Famer Frank Robinson and being on the same pitching staff as another Hall of Famer, Dennis Eckersley. Kern speaks fondly of many teammates including Gaylord Perry, Pat Dobson, Sparky Lyle and Boog Powell who taught this “dumbass rookie” as much about being a pitcher as anyone he ever came across. And this baseball character tells us about the best prank he ever took part in, and how Buddy Bell got his revenge! It's a bunch of laughs with one of the funniest relief pitchers of the late 70's who could throw the ball about as hard as anyone for a brief, yet electric time in Cleveland and Texas.

Corbin Carroll and Gunnar Henderson were unanimous winners of the 2023 Rookie of the Year Awards in the NL & AL. Carroll became the first player in Arizona Diamondbacks history to win the Jackie Robinson ROY Award while Henderson is the eighth in Baltimore Orioles history. We have a member of the Baseball Writers' Association of America to share their ballot. Why was Nolan Jones the second-best rookie in the National League? Was Spencer Steer actually better than third-place finisher James Outman? Would the results have been different with a five-player ballot? Patrick Lyons hosts the DNVR Rockies Podcast and welcome Kevin Henry of FanSided to discuss the ROY results, predict the Manager of the Year Awards, announce two new managers and dig into all the news around MLB.

Ryan speaks with James Outman on why he believes that baseball and Stoicism both promote the same practices, why baseball players are uniquely prepared to deal with failure, how practicing the Stoic mindset helps him survive “the yips”, why Lou Gehrig's story is the perfect example of Memento Mori, and more.James Outman is a professional baseball player who plays centerfield for the Los Angeles Dodgers. Since being called up to the Majors in July of 2022, James has amassed a batting average of .260 with 18 home runs and 81 RBI (as of September 2023). The highlights of his rookie season included hitting the Dodgers' first home run of the 2023 season, and a go-ahead grand slam in the ninth inning against the Chicago Cubs, as well as winning the National League Rookie of the Month award for April 2023. James credits much of his MLB success to the mental fortitude that he has developed since reading The Obstacle Is The Way during the pandemic and studying Stoicism ever since.

Dwight "Doc" Gooden played 16 seasons in Major League Baseball. He pitched for the New York Mets from 1984-1994. During that span, he was National League Rookie of the Year in 1984, NL Cy Young Award winner in 1985, and was a part of the 1986 Mets World Championship Team. He is a 4-time All-Star. His career was derailed by his issues with drug use and was suspended multiple times, including the entire 1995 season. In 1996, Gooden signed with the New York Yankees, and on May 14, 1996, he threw the first no-hitter of his career for the Yankees against the Seattle Mariners. In this episode, Gooden talks about his health today and his battle with sobriety. He is also part of a new company that produces CBD products. Gooden speaks extensively about how Imbue CBD has helped him stay sober. For the first time ever on Sports with Friends, listeners were solicited through social media to ask questions for Doc. He took many questions from fans in this episode. For more information and to order CBD products, visit www.imbue.com/dg16. Make sure to use Doc's code DG16 at checkout for 30% off.
