MLB insider Jeff Passan (3:26) joins Blair and Barker to discuss the Red Sox' impressive offseason, their top prospects that should make a huge impact, if Mike Trout can bounce back after another injury-plagued year, and just how good the Dodgers can be in 2025 after winning it all last season.

Steve interviews Jeff Passan (00:20:16) ESPN's Senior MLB Insider. Passan, most famous for being TSC's first guest, returns to talk about the upcoming baseball season. Of course, most of the conversation isn't about baseball. Steve and Jeff talk about the weather, being a man around the house, and Francesco Camarda. Eventually, the baseball discussion begins. Jeff spends most of the talk disagreeing with Steve's opinions about the economics of baseball, Ohtani the heel, and MVP voting. Jeff also gives us some teams he is high on for 2025 and some teams he is down on. Plus, the Pittsburgh Pirates, what the fuck? Steve starts the show with First Things First and talks about the undisputed success of the 4 Nations tournament, a dark day for Italian soccer, and Juan Soto giving a teammate a giftI The show ends with one last thing about being around reaching out to your friends.

FTN Fantasy’s Aaron Schatz joins the show to give us a preview to the Conference Championship games this weekend. He also dives into what he thinks went wrong for the Seahawks this season. // Headline Rewrites: The Texans have fired offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik. It’s conference championship weekend! The Bills and Chiefs meet again in the AFC title game and the Eagles face the Commanders on the NFC side. The Bills have ruled out starting safety Taylor Rapp for Sunday’s AFC Championship game against the Kansas City Chiefs. // NFL Headlines: The Houston Texans have fired their OC Bobby Slowik after one season. There are multiple reports that Robert Saleh is expected to return to the 49ers as their DC unless he gets a head coaching job. Ravens TE Mark Andrews posted an apology on Instagram for his performance in the divisional round loss to Buffalo. // Jeff Passan has an article out on ESPN that has a message to MLB owners. Some reporters and analysts are not happy with the Dodgers spending far more than other teams to attract players. Passan thinks that what that says about the Dodgers is that they are ready to win and want prospective players that they can sign to them and win now. 

We dig into Passan's thoughts on the M's inaction so far this offseason. Brock says sometimes you have to overpay. Salk says that's understandable but not if you're trading one of your starting pitchers. Then, we break down what we know about the two reported Seahawks offensive coordinator interviews so far.

Jeff Passan had some high praise for the Pirates, saying they are the 2nd best team in the NL Central. He said they need to add a bat or two. With so many people realizing they need to make a move for a bat, including people like Passan, why have the Pirates not realized this?

Passan talks about the Diamondbacks, their rotation, the NL West, and more.

In a recent article by ESPN's Jeff Passan, the MLB insider listed Kansas City Royals starter Cole Ragans as one of the ten players scouts are buzzing about this spring. The guys talk about Ragans flourishing after being traded from the Rangers and the rest of Passan's list. 

As ESPN MLB Insider Jeff Passan tells us, spring training should be about hope and new beginnings. Relaying the smell of freshly cut grass, enjoying the Florida or Arizona sunlight, hearing the crack of the bat and the slap of the leather. But for Major League Baseball, there are still a number of issues that have caught people's attention, and none of them relate to position battles, or players making debuts with new teams. The Athletics are still trying to find their way to Las Vegas, and with the city of Oakland less than enamored with them, they don't even have a clear home beyond this season. Commissioner Rob Manfred has announced that he wants to retire in five years time, but first he wants to make sure that the league is ready to grow through expansion. And there are concerns about the new uniforms that players will be sporting this season, and how much they - ahem - reveal. So today, Passan tells us where the league is on all of these issues, and helps us clear the way for talk about baseball, on the field. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

ESPN's Jeff Passan is arguably baseball's most trustworthy reporter, and he wrote today that "One team opposing organizations expect to sign at least one top-end Boras client: the San Francisco Giants..." Passan is referring to Boras' 'Big 4': Blake Snell, Cody Bellinger, Jordan Montgomery, and Matt Chapman. It's not surprising that opposing teams view the SF Giants as a likely destination for at least one of these players. The Giants are still believed to be big-game hunting; it's just been a very slow-moving market.The impending close of Shota Imanaga's posting window is likely holding up the market to a degree, particularly for Snell and Montgomery. Imanaga's 45-day posting window expires a week from Thursday, and he is expected to command a deal of at least $100 million, per Passan. The Giants make sense for Imanaga, just like they do for fellow lefty starters Snell and Montgomery.Finally, Passan also mentions the SF Giants as a possible destination for high-end relievers Josh Hader, Jordan Hicks, and Robert Stephenson. He also lists the Giants among the select group of teams looking at the veteran position player market, which Passan says is "in danger of collapsing" due to low overall demand. The names mentioned: Teoscar Hernandez, Jorge Soler, J.D. Martinez, Justin Turner, Rhys Hoskins, Joc Pederson, Brandon Belt, Harrison Bader, Michael A. Taylor, Tommy Pham, Adam Duvall, and Eddie Rosario. It's difficult to see any of these players fitting the SF Giants well, but there are perhaps a few exceptions.Find and follow Locked On Giants on your favorite podcast platforms:

Hour 2- NFL analyst Daniel Jeremiah on big changes coming to the Chargers and Bryce Young's lost confidence, Marty's NFL notes, text line mad at Jeff Passan.

According to ESPN's Jeff Passan, three major teams seem to have shifted their attention away from Shohei Ohtani, and indication that they have perhaps been told they're out of the running. Per Passan, the Mets, Red Sox, and Rangers are seemingly out on Ohtani. Those are three teams that were legitimate threats to land the megastar, which only increases the SF Giants' odds of landing Ohtani. Passan adds that the Dodgers, Cubs, Blue Jays, and Angels are known to still be in the running for Ohtani, and that the San Francisco Giants' status is "unknown." Per reports, Ohtani wants things kept as quiet as possible, so that's not necessarily a bad position for the Giants to be in.The Winter Meetings kick off in Nashville on Sunday. What's on the Giants' agenda on the offseason's biggest stage? Landing a superstar should be priority No. 1. Ohtani certainly would suffice. Yoshinobu Yamamoto reportedly won't meet with finalists until the week after the Winter Meetings, so don't expect his signing to go down in Nashville. The SF Giants would be wise, though, to improve their team to prove to Ohtani that they'd be in a position to win with him. It doesn't help that Korean star Jung Hoo Lee has yet to be posted, as he profiles as a strong fit for the Giants. Cody Bellinger is another who seems to fit well.Finally, Gabe Kapler landed on his feet. We learned today that the Giants' fired manager was hired as Assistant General Manager of the Miami Marlins under new President of Baseball Operations Peter Bendix, who was hired away from his position as General Manager of the Rays just weeks ago. Kapler joins several of his Giants coaches in landing on his feet after not being retained by the Giants. Kai Correa, Craig Albernaz, Andrew Bailey, Brian Bannister, Ethan Katz, and Donnie Ecker are among Kapler's initial staff with the Giants that now have prominent roles with other organizations.Find and follow Locked On Giants on your favorite podcast platforms:

The New York Yankees are being mentioned along with Shohei Ohtani, but not for a good reason. An article by Jeff Passan from ESPN (linked below) discussed the Yankees' hesitation in even trying for Ohtani. Is this a good thing or a bad thing? Spoiler alert: It's not great! They're the Yankees. Stacey and Steve discussed the report and talked about how not trying for a big free agent is worse than trying and failing. Let us know below if you agree. Then, our friends at Locked On Rays brought up a possible trade idea that would send Kyle Higashioka to the Rays in a rare intra-division trade. Stacey and Steve go through the logjam at catcher and discuss what Higgy could bring to the Rays in a possible trade. Plus, what would your ideal catching rotation be? Right now, the Yankees are chock-full of them.  Passan report: https://www.espn.com/mlb/insider/insider/story/_/id/38986551/mlb-free-agency-teams-watch-yankees-mets-padres Join the LOY Insiders Club via subtext! https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonyankees What is the insider's club? https://youtu.be/BItWi-kbIJY?t=1468 Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCH5857VCyYLAzsWr9vHk4sQ Follow Stacey On Twitter: https://twitter.com/StaceGots Subscribe to Steve's YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@stevegranado Follow Steve On Twitter: https://twitter.com/SteveGranado Follow the Show On Twitter: https://twitter.com/LockedOnYankees Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
