The New York Mets continue to just win series, as it was a pair of series wins. First, it was two out of three against the Los Angeles Dodgers in a NLCS rematch. Next up, was taking two against the Chicago White Sox. Both series left the boys wanting more, as there were missed opportunities. The guys also discuss a pair of positional controversy, at catcher and third-base. Should Luis Torrens get the bulk of the playing time? How can Francisco Alvarez turn things around? Then, what about Brett Baty and Mark Vientos?

The 1980 Philadelphia Phillies delivered the most celebrated season in franchise history to that point, capturing their first-ever World Series title after nearly a century of trying. Managed by Dallas Green, the team combined veteran leadership, clutch hitting, and a deep pitching staff to finish 91–71 and win the National League East in a tightly contested race.Mike Schmidt led the charge with an MVP season, blasting 48 home runs and driving in 121 runs while playing elite defense at third base. He was the undisputed anchor of the lineup. Pete Rose, in his second year with the Phillies, brought postseason experience and grit, while Greg Luzinski, Bake McBride, and Garry Maddox rounded out a dangerous offense.The pitching staff was anchored by Steve Carlton, who went 24–9 and won his third Cy Young Award. Tug McGraw provided energy and reliability out of the bullpen, delivering several key performances in high-leverage situations down the stretch and into the postseason.The Phillies survived a dramatic NLCS against the Houston Astros, considered one of the greatest playoff series ever played. In the World Series, they defeated the Kansas City Royals in six games, with Schmidt and Carlton leading the way and McGraw striking out Willie Wilson to seal the title.The 1980 Phillies ended decades of frustration for the franchise and their fanbase, finally securing a championship for a team that had long carried the burden of being baseball's oldest and most title-starved club.- 3B - Mike Schmidt- LF-RF - Lonnie Smith- RF - Bake McBride- LF - Greg Luzinski- 2B - Manny Trillo- 1B - Pete Rose- CF - Garry Maddox- C - Bob Boone- SS - Larry Bowa- SP - Bob Walk- SP - Steve Carlton- SP-RP - Randy Lerch- SP - Dick Ruthven- RP - Tug McGraw- RP - Ron Reed

Jesse Orosco pitched 24 years in Major League Baseball and is the all-time career leader in games played for a pitcher with 1252. A hero of the 1986 Jesse earned 3 wins in 4 games during the 1986 NLCS and 2 saves in the 1986 World Series, including the iconic final out for the World Champion New York Mets. Jesse and Omar Vizquel (SS) are the only two players to hold the career games played mark for their positions who are NOT in the HOF. Jesse also has some (but not other) career stats that compare favorably with the greatest reliever of all-time Mariano Rivera. Are Jesse's career stats, hardware, and fame fame factor enough to warrant induction in Cooperstown? Listen to Russell as he makes the case!
Send us a textMike "Spanky" LaValliere pulls no punches as he takes us behind home plate for a candid look at baseball through a catcher's eyes. From his days with the Cardinals to becoming a Gold Glove winner and fan favorite with the Pittsburgh Pirates, LaValliere's journey reveals the hidden complexities of one of baseball's most demanding positions.With refreshing honesty, Spanky tackles the evolution of catching techniques, expressing serious concerns about today's one-knee approach: "I don't understand the catching that's going on right now... at the lower levels, if you're on a knee, you're not doing any service." His breakdown of what made him successful defensively offers invaluable insights for players and coaches alike.The conversation turns particularly fascinating when LaValliere pulls back the curtain on catcher-umpire relationships in the pre-analytics era. His stories of umpires expanding the strike zone for mouthy batters and the importance of game management over rigid strike zones highlight just how dramatically baseball has changed. When asked about his relationship with umpires, LaValliere's insider perspective is priceless: "If one of the hitters was a little mouthy, you get a little tap... move a little further outside."Perhaps most compelling are LaValliere's raw, emotional reflections on the Pirates' magical 1990-92 division title runs, culminating in the heartbreaking 1992 NLCS loss featuring Sid Bream's infamous slide. Even decades later, Spanky maintains: "I still believe that I got that back leg before," and reveals he couldn't watch the replay for fifteen years afterward. His stories about teammates like Barry Bonds ("the best player I ever saw, bar none") and Bob Walk offer delightful glimpses into clubhouse dynamics from a golden era of Pirates baseball.Whether you're a catching enthusiast, Pirates fan, or simply love authentic baseball stories from someone who lived them, LaValliere's blend of technical knowledge, humor, and heartfelt reflection makes this episode essential listening.

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.

John Foster is a lifelong Cincinnati Reds fan from Long Island, New York.

Since then, he's stayed loyal to the Reds—no matter how long the rebuild.John shares how his job as a flight attendant has helped him chase ballparks across the country, allowing him to visit 29 out of 30 MLB stadiums (with Truist Park still on the list). We talk about how the game has changed over time, his recent shift in perspective after a health scare, and how he's come to appreciate baseball—and ballpark chasers—even more deeply.Find Baseball Bucket List Online:Twitter: @BaseballBucketFacebook: @BaseballBucketListInstagram: @Baseball.Bucket.ListWebsite: baseballbucketlist.comThis podcast is part of the Curved Brim Media Network:Twitter: @CurvedBrimWebsite: curvedbrimmedia.com

This week we profile the baseball life of the iconic Willie Stargell. Willie, the feared power-hitting slugger and clubhouse leader on and off the diamond, signed with the Pittsburgh Pirates as an amateur free agent in 1958, and will forever be associated with the franchise. The seemingly larger than life Stargell, after his retirement in 1982 would leave a legacy of winning, leadership, focus and fun in his wide wake, During the magical " We Are Family" season of 1979, he won the National League MVP, as well as the NLCS and World Series MVP, the only player in the history of the game to sweep all three MVP honors durinng a season. His 25 total bases in the 1979 World Series against the Baltimore Orioles stood as the seven game series benchmark until Astros outfielder George Springer bested the output in the 2019 World Series. Manager Chuck Tanner once said that having Willie on your roster is like walking around with a priceless diamond ring on your finger. #WilverDornellStargell #WillieStargell #Pops #BobZuk #PittsburghPirates ##DannyMurtaugh #RobertoClemente #SteveBlass #ChuckTanner #DaveParker #DeloresStargell

"There should be three expectations in life," MLB Network Radio host and noted baseball pundit Mike Ferrin says in a brand new episode of the Best Pocast in Baseball. "Death, taxes, and the Cardinals competing evry year. That's National League baseball." That may be the Cardinals' brand, but that is not entirely their plan this coming season. At Major League Baseball's Winter Meetings in Dallas, Ferrin joins Post-Dispatch baseball writer Derrick Goold to discuss the direction the Cardinals are shifting and how they have a long way to go and a short time to get there. This isn't just about carrying on the torch of the Cardinals Way, but turning it into a more fuel efficient electric lighter. Several years ago as a guest on BPIB, Ferrin, who hosts Power Alley on Sirius XM's MLB Network Radio, introduced this podcast's listeners to the phrase "player dev," short for player development. The conversation that followed in that episode offered a glimpse into where the Cardinals had started to go astray from the modern system and how they can now catch up. Ferrin dives into what current, successful teams do to maximize player development and how the Cardinals are not alone in their attempt to restart after a stalled stretch. Ferrin and Goold also discuss the Cardinals rising to the fifth overall pick in the upcoming MLB draft, and they conclude with a discussion about the legacy of the Paul Goldschmidt-Nolan Arenado era in St. Louis as it likely comes to an end. The two infielders and potential Hall of Famers finished first and third for the 2022 National League MVP, respectively, and they helped the team to several postseason appearances. But Goldschmidt only advanced as far as the 2019 NLCS and they never won a playoff series together as Cardinals teammates. 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.

We start the hour with a Behind The Bit that takes us inside Greg Cote's iconic 4-5 am hour during Freedumb. Greg Cote is on a crusade to at least get Pete Rose on the Hall of Fame ballot, but not necessarily into the actual Hall of Fame. Plus, baseball is happening! Stugotz's New York Mets won a big game last night. Does he care? Was the New York Yankees' win in Game 1 actually a big win? When is it fair to start paying attention to baseball if you took the regular season off and your team is in the NLCS? Dan went out to do a Zoom interview with the second gentlemen, Doug Emhoff, and that leads into a discussion about Greg Cote turning down an interview with Deion Sanders. Also, Kornhacki takes a look at the NFC playoff picture if the season ended today, and Mike Ryan is becoming a Tampa Bay Buccaneers fan now? Learn more about your ad choices.

On today's show, Pat, Darius Butler, AJ Hawk, and the boys recap last night's Monday Night Football game that saw the Jets lose in heartbreaking fashion to the Bills, followed by the news that today they have officially traded for Davante Adams, and what that will do to open things up for their offense and ultimately if it can save their season as they sit at 2-4. Later, they also react to the news that the Cleveland Browns are trading Amari Cooper to the Buffalo Bills for a 3rd round pick, and recap all the action from the ALCS and NLCS. Joining the progrum to chat about the Jets landing Davante Adams and what that does for his excitement is a member of 2 broadcasting Hall of Fames, and the host of Get Up!, Mike Greenberg. In hour 2, Super Bowl Champion/MVP, 4X League MVP, and Quarterback of the New York Jets, Aaron Rodgers joins the show to chat about last night's loss and how they'll bounce back before he brings in Davante Adams who is already in the Jets facility, and how he'll acclimate to the offense and how excited he is to be back playing with Rodgers again.

The Pitch Clock is back for another episode as we inch closer to the Championship Series in the MLB Postseason. Adnan Virk joins Jeremy and Chris for this week's edition of Taylor's Trivia.

Plus, Jeremy chats with David Samson about all the action taking place in the divisional round including Fransisco Lindor and the Mets clinching a spot in the NLCS, Giancarlo Stanton powering the Yankees to victory, the Tigers' "Pitching Chaos" getting them (and Jeremy) within a game of the next round, and Friday night's Game 5 between the Dodgers and Padres.

Today's cast: Dan, Stugotz, Chris, Billy, Mike, Roy, and Tony. The crew was able to make it in-studio despite weather concerns, and we begin the show by taking a look at some of the images coming out of our state of Florida after Hurricane Milton made landfall yesterday. Then, it's time for some baseball. Fransisco Lindor and the Mets are a loveable underdog story with a bagillion dollar payroll headed to the NLCS, Bob Costas is getting ripped on social media for sounding bored during Yankees-Royals, and phed up Phillies phans. Plus, Dan has been reaching out to Rece Davis to discuss his touchdown call in UM-Cal, so why hasn't he responded? Is it because Dan wants to bring him on the show just to rip him?

Today's word of the day is ‘escorted' as in security as in Robert Saleh as in Aaron Rodgers as in Woody Johnson as in the New York Jets. The Jets have fired Robert Saleh 5 games into the season. Why now? Does it make sense to have given him this season or done it during the offseason or during the end of last season? (19:30) Mets are one win away from sending the Phillies home and heading to the NLCS! Grimace! Padres hosted the Dodgers and what a game it was! Homers and grand slams and huge plays!
