Jesse checks in on Manny Machado's ability to produce with runners in scoring position, Jackson Merrill's high ceiling, how to attack Dylan Cease, the ultra-competitive National League West, and Mike Shildt's presence in the dugout. Mike Bordick (25:20), 14-year MLB infield and host of the BMORE Baseball Podcast, takes a look at Brandon Hyde's firing, what behind Adley Rutschman's slow start, Cedric Mullins' impressive offensive game, and former Oriole Anthony Santander's struggles at the plate.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

As we approach the quarter-mark of the 2025 season, it's time to start looking ahead for a very competitive National League West.Skyler Timmins and Kenneth Weber of Purple Row dig into upcoming impactful series for each club – including the Arizona Diamondbacks matching up with some of their contemporaries for the first time this year. Could the Snakes be on the verge of a run?They also look at pictures starting to form for each roster in a too early start to the trade deadline season. Is Max Muncy going to cut it for the Dodgers at third base all season? Has the clock struck midnight for LaMonte Wade at first base by the bay? Do the Padres have an answer for LF on the roster and what (if anything) would a contender want to trade for off the Colorado roster?

The National League West continues to shine aside from a historically bad start from the Colorado Rockies. But as we get deeper into the season, the injuries are starting to pile up around the division.Skyler Timmins and Kenneth Weber of Purple Row dig into the biggest injury impacts for each club. Highlighting those impacted the most and what depth each team has behind them to weather the storm. The Los Angeles Dodgers' envious SP depth is set to be tested with Blake Snell and Tyler Glasnow hitting the injured list with shoulder troubles. In the desert, the Arizona Diamondbacks have been without All-Star Ketel Marte but are facing issues of their own on the mound.The San Francisco Giants and San Diego Padres have remained relatively healthy so far, but do they have the depth to keep up if the injury bug finds their clubhouse?Then there's the Colorado Rockies. The injuries are significant, but how much of their record is a byproduct of the missing pieces?

Hosts Joe Maddon and Tom Verducci dive in with the Yankees changing closers after just 8 innings for Devin Williams. Joe explains the timing and reasoning for making such an early switch. Tom is floored by the start of the Rockies and sees a trend with bad teams getting worse. We switch gears to soccer and a new head coach doing things a bit differently and Joe loves it!

The National League West has been the best division in baseball, by far. The Los Angeles Dodgers have the best record in MLB and the San Diego Padres with Fernando Tatis Jr. looking like an NL MVP are nipping at their heels.Skyler Timmins and Kenneth Weber of Purple Row dig into the biggest surprises for all five clubs out west. Will Japanese superstar Roki Sasaki continue to have struggles? Should anyone be concerned about all the injuries occurring at Dodger Stadium?The San Francisco Giants are doing that thing they did in 2021 when they won the division. Can we believe Jung Ho Lee's breakout? For that matter, is Corbin Carroll back to being a world-beater for the Arizona Diamondbacks after a sophomore slump?Then there's the Colorado Rockies. Is the biggest surprise coming out of Denver that they actually made a coaching change?

The National League West has come to play in the first few weeks of the MLB season. USA Today writer and Audacy Insider Bob Nightengale breaks down why the division has been dominant so far. Plus, updates on a couple of poor-performing squads and if there's any progress on a salary cap.

The 1975 Cincinnati Reds, known as the Big Red Machine, were at the height of their dominance and delivered one of the most iconic seasons in baseball history. Managed by Sparky Anderson, the team finished with a 108–54 record, cruising to the National League West title and eventually capturing the World Series crownThe roster was loaded with star power, including Pete Rose, Joe Morgan, Johnny Bench, and Tony Pérez—each contributing in different ways to the team's relentless offense and cohesive chemistry. Joe Morgan, in particular, had an MVP season, showcasing a rare combination of power, speed, and plate discipline. Pete Rose continued to be the heartbeat of the lineup, hitting .317 and playing with unmatched intensity. Bench and Pérez delivered consistent power, while George Foster and Dave Concepción added key production and strong defense. On the pitching side, the staff wasn't overpowering, but it was highly effective. Don Gullett, Gary Nolan, and Fred Norman anchored the rotation, while Rawly Eastwick emerged as a dominant force out of the bullpenThe Reds' balance, depth, and aggressive base running made them a nightmare matchup for opponents. After sweeping the Pirates in the NLCS, Cincinnati faced the Boston Red Sox in a dramatic World Series that went seven games. Game 6, featuring Carlton Fisk's legendary walk-off home run, remains one of the most famous in MLB historyThe Reds responded with a Game 7 victory, securing their first World Series title since 1940.

Wolf and Luke discuss the different threats in the NL west division and Arizona Cardinals owner Michael Bidwill joins the show.

The NL West has three of the four teams in Major League Baseball with a .700 winning percentage or better. The Los Angeles Dodgers were expected to be here, but are they in trouble following injuries to Freddie Freeman and Blake Snell?Have the San Francisco Giants found the magic of 2021 when they won the National League West with 107 wins? Did it just take Bob Melvin a year to figure out how to elevate his club? How will the San Diego Padres handle the loss of Jackson Merrill to the 10-day IL?What will the Arizona Diamondbacks do without Ketel Marte? And will Corbin Burnes start to figure things out?Welcome to Best of the West your go-to podcast for everything NL West for Rockies fans!

Post-Dispatch podcasts page: https://go.stltoday.com/0hfn43 Please consider subscribing: https://go.stltoday.com/9aigz5   JUPITER, Fla. -- Cardinals broadcaster Chip Caray lobbed a compelling question into the conversation he and other members of the media had this past week with Tony Clark, chief executive of the Major League Baseball Players' Association.   Caray, a longtime presence on baseball broadcasts and third-generation Caray in that role, wondered what it would look like if Major League Baseball ditched geographic divisions and reimagined itself along economic lines. The divisions would be organized by market size, not region. Tampa Bay would be free from competing against the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox for a division playoff spot. The Colorado Rockies wouldn't have to keep pace with the wallets in the National League West, if they were in the Plaines Division with Kansas City.   It's one way to open up more spots in the postseason for markets that are increasingly seeing those routes erased.   Expansion is going to make such tinkering possible.   Intrigued, Best Podcast in Baseball host and St. Louis Post-Dispatch baseball writer Derrick Goold asked Caray to expand on his question in this brand new episode -- and much much much more.   This is the 80th year of a Caray calling baseball, and that puts their family up there with some of the longest tenured in the history of the game in any role, any level, or any capacity. And there is a fourth generation on the way. FanDuel Sports Network picked up the Cardinals' Spring Breakout game on March 14 for prospects, but the prospects won't only be on the field. Chip's son, Stefan, will join him in the booth to call the game and offer thoughts on many of the players he's seen before from calling minor-league games.   Prospects for the future of baseball, prospects for the future of playing baseball, and prospects for the future of calling baseball -- all in one 30 minute conversation under the son at the Cardinals player development complex in Jupiter.   The Best Podcast in Baseball, sponsored by Closets by Design of St. Louis, is a production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and Derrick Goold.

Wir beginnen die neue Saison mit dem unvergessenen Vin Scully. Willkommen zur 13. Saison Just Baseball. Wie immer starten wir mit der Preview auf die reguläre Saison. Und zur Überraschung aller ist die National League West als erstes auf der Liste. Verlieren die Dodgers überhaupt ein Spiel? Können die Padres aufholen, obwohl sie sich nicht verstärkt haben? In Phoenix wurde viel getan, aber reicht das aus? Die Giants und Rockies hecheln auch in diesem Jahr hinterher. Wenn ihr uns unterstützen wollt, dann macht dies gerne bei Steady

Can anyone push the Dodgers in the NL West or is the regular season merely a formality? How will the division sort out when the dust is settled? D and Z make their picks for the National League West in their division by division season preview.

Spring Training is here! And Shohei Ohtani is back on the mound for the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Japanese two-way superstar is expected to pitch again in 2025, but will we see his return during the Tokyo Series? Could he become a reliever or closer as he recovers from Tommy John surgery? As all 30 clubs in Major League Baseball report to Arizona and Florida, several questions loom large in the National League West. One of three divisions to have all five teams in the same place - and the only one in the Cactus League - there's plenty to watch for over the next six weeks.How badly do the San Francisco Giants need Jung Hoo Lee to stay healthy and lead their offense? Are the Arizona Diamondbacks really going to keep Jordan Montgomery and go with a six-man rotation?Kris Bryant is also set to return for the Colorado Rockies. Can we really believe he'll spend any time in the outfield after three injury-plagued seasons? Is this actually a bad idea all-around? And will we see the San Diego Padres make a flurry of moves like last year just ahead of Opening Day 2025?

A.J. Preller and the San Diego Padres have had one of the quietest offseason in all of Major League Baseball... excluding the lawsuit between Sheel Seidler and the Seidler Brothers. Does any team in the National League West even have one bad transaction as awful as the Friar's winter? Los Angeles signed arguably the three or four best free agents in Roki Sasaki, Blake Snell, Tanner Scott and Teoscar Hernández. Were the Dodgers trades to acquire international bonus pool money and the Gavin Lux swap with the Cincinnati Reds better than any the Colorado Rockies achieved? Plus, Arizona Diamondbacks signed an ace in Corbin Burnes and the San Francisco Giants signed a future Hall of Famer in Justin Verlander. Include the Willy Adames deal and can it be argued that the Giants had the best offseason in the division?

MLB Pipeline and Baseball America drop their top 100 prospects lists for Major League Baseball in 2025. The Los Angeles Dodgers - no surprise - lead the National League West with six players headlined by Japanese phenom Roki Sasaki. Did the Dodgers exert some advantage to get these talented minor leaguers? And how much of an edge do they have compared to the rest of the NL West? Are the San Diego Padres duo of Ethan Salas and Leodalis De Vries a better bet than the Colorado Rockies tandem of Chase Dollander and Charlie Condon? Should fans of the San Francisco Giants (Bryce Eldridge) and Arizona Diamondbacks (Jordan Lawler) be worried their team has only one notable addition to these lists?

This week Craig and Rex begin a two-part series on the Miracle Braves of 1914.The early 20th Century was not kind to the Boston Braves (previously, the Beaneaters, the Doves and the Rustlers). Mired in the second division for years with frequent ownership changes, an outdated ballpark and few prospects, Boston entered the 1914 season with second year manager George Stallings, some promising new ballplayers and faint hopes to crack the National League's first division. However, after being swept in July 4th double header, the Braves were back in familiar territory - deep in last place, 15 games behind the mighty New York Giants.What happened next resulted in baseball's greatest come from behind story ever. The Braves caught fire and made a mockery of the National League West, wining by 10 games over the Giants, the league's three-time defending champions. Part One of this two-part series looks at the Braves remarkable season and sets the stage for the World Series against the American League powerhouse Philadelphia Athletics.You can support Hooks & Runs by purchasing books, including books featured in this episode, through our store at Bookshop.org.

Roki Sasaki is ready to make his choice. Will it be the Los Angeles Dodgers, San Diego Padres or Toronto Blue Jays? Are there any indicators as to who he'll choose? And did anything unusual happen on International Signing Day to suggest who it will be? Four big name players who rejected a qualifying offer are still free agents: Pete Alonso, Alex Bregman, Anthony Santander and Nick Pivetta. Do they have a fit with any team in the National League West? Plus, numerous other big names -- Max Scherzer, Tanner Scott, Clayton Kershaw and Jack Flaherty -- are still available. Could the San Francisco Giants or Arizona Diamondbacks have another trick up their sleeve? And might the Colorado Rockies bring back a familiar face for one more go-round in Denver?

This week, Skyler and Evan dive into the goings-on of the National League West, and how the Colorado Rockies are once again being left behind by the other teams in an extremely competitive division. Meanwhile, the Rockies are relying on Kris Bryant to regain some variety form as he works to rebound from his back condition. Is it even possible? We round things out with some New Year's Resolutions for our final episode of 2024! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Hosts Kenneth Weber and Skyler Timmins take a walk on the westside to discuss the latest and greatest in the National League West. Is Roki Sasaki a better fit in San Diego than Los Angeles? Matt Chapman and Willy Adames combine their talents and instantly become the best left side of the infield, ever?

Carlos and Peter complete their divisional draft review series of the 2024 draft class with the National League West. The two talk through each team's draft, pick out players to know, sleepers they are intrigued with, standout debut performers and then pick out which class of the division they're most excited about. —Time Stamps(3:30) D-backs(13:00) Rockies (30:45) Dodgers(39:00) Padres(53:00) Giants(1:05:30) Which class do we like the best?Our Sponsors:* Check out Indeed: https://indeed.com/BASEBALLAMERICA* Check out LegalZoom and use my code Baseball for a great deal: https://www.legalzoom.com* Check out SelectQuote and use my code BA for a great deal: https://www.selectquote.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/baseball-america/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Ben and Carlos talk about Jac Caglianone's return to the mound in the 2025 season and how they view him as a two-way player moving forward, as well as why people should stop referencing Shohei Ohtani as a comp for him—or any other player. After that the two continue their organizational overview series with the National League West, starting with a pair of strong farm systems with the Dodgers and Rockies, and then with a trio of more questionable groups with the Padres, D-Backs and Giants. The two open up the listener mailbag at the end of the show with question that include: sleeper bats in the 2025 draft class, international signing tax implications, potential issues with international players coming to the states and how the nitty gritty of international signings happens. —Time Stamps(0:01) Opening Banter(5:00) Jac Caglianone(14:00) NL West Overviews(14:30) Dodgers(17:30) Dalton Rushing(22:00) Zyhir Hope(28:00) Eduardo Quintero(30:00) Kellon Lindsey(32:00) Rockies(34:00) Chase Dollander(36:00) Charlie Condon(41:20) Adael Amador(43:00) Zac Veen & Robert Calaz(47:30) Padres(49:00) Don't jump ship on Ethan Salas(52:00) Ethan Salas vs. Leo De Vries(55:00) Deeper Padres names(1:02:00) D-backs(1:05:30) Slade Caldwell(1:08:00) Adrian Del Castillo(1:12:00) Druw Jones(1:15:15) Giants(1:18:00) Dakota Jordan(1:21:00) Solid international moves for San Francisco(1:23:00) Carson Whisenhunt(1:25:00) Listener MailbagDo you have a question you want us to answer?

On this episode of the Three-Inning Save podcast, the Dodgers won the National League West again and Shohei Ohtani is in the MLB postseason for the first time. The Dodgers beat the Padres two out of three times to clinch the division at Dodger Stadium, giving them three NL West titles in a row and 11 in the last 12 years. By the time the season ended, the Dodgers had the best record in MLB and home-field advantage throughout the playoffs. Ohtani won NL player of the week in each of the final two weeks of the regular season and was named NL player of the month for September, and finished his likely MVP season with 54 home runs and 59 stolen bases. The Three-Inning Save is part of the Fans First Sports Network. Hosted by Eric Stephen and Jacob Burch, with questions from Craig Minami. Produced by Brian Salvatore.

Then we get to "Don't (And DO) Do This" before we're joined by former MLB player Jeff Francoeur, TBS analyst, and get his thoughts on the Padres as they gear up for the 2024 playoffs! Listen here!

From 'Baseball Isn't Boring' (subscribe here): No team arguably had two more important trade deadline acquisitions than the Dodgers with the deals securing them pitchers Michael Kopech and Jack Flaherty. So it's a perfect time for Bradfo to catch up with both players as Los Angeles attempts to fend off San Diego in the National League West. The Kopech conversation is a wide-ranging one, with Bradfo and Michael talking about the trade from the White Sox, his journey to this point and what has made him so good. Flaherty swings by to discuss exactly how he became the pitcher he has become this season, which is the Dodgers' No. 1 starter.
