Podcast appearances and mentions of robbie ray

100 games played, and things are looking a little iffy. The boys break down the Blue Jays series, Matthew rants about Justin Verlander, again, Ben calls out Logan Webb and Robbie Ray for being hungover, and they pick on instant replay. But let's face it, the break didn't solve the real problem: the offense.Our new cocktail podcast, The Perfect Sip, is on hiatus but new episodes will come some day, probably. (Yeah, it's taking a long time ... life, you know?) If you haven't listened yet, you can catch up here: https://the-perfect-sip.captivate.fm/listenSpeaking of cocktails, today Ben is drinking an Olallieberry Bourbon Smash while Matthew is drinking a Toasted Coconut Old Fashioned. Recipes below.Olallieberry Bourbon Smash2 oz Bourbon1/2 oz Simple Syrup2 Lemons wedges8-10 mint leaves1/4 cup OlallieberiesAdd the simple syrup, mint, lemon wedges and olallieberries to a mixing tin and muddle thoroughly. (If you are room challenged, muddle in stages starting with syrup and lemon, remove lemons add berries and muddle, and muddle mint last or not at all, it's going to get pulverized in the shaking anyway.) Fill your shaking tin with ice and shake until well chilled. Double strain into a rocks glass over cubed ice (crushed ice is traditional) and garnish with the mint spring and olallieberries on a cocktail pick. (Choose big one, the olallieberry has a weird anatomy making them hard to skewer straight through the middle.)(Toasted) Coconut Old Fashioned2 oz Bourbon1/2 oz Coconut Gum Syrup1 Dashes Angostura Bitters1 Dashes Black Walnut BittersOrange Peel for garnishTo make Syrup: 1/2 cup Demerara Sugar, 1/2 cup Coconut Sugar (Or 1 cup Demerara), 1/2 cup water, 1/2 tsp gum Arabic powder, 3/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut (toasted).

From 'Baseball Isn't Boring' (subscribe here): What is it like to navigate through a contract year? Pete Alonso has a pretty good perspective, not only having lived that life last year but also potentially doing it again in 2025, thanks to an opt-out clause in his current deal. Bradfo talks about the dynamic with the Mets first baseman, while also examining the dynamic with Giants starting pitcher Robbie Ray.

From 'Baseball Isn't Boring' (subscribe here): Our instincts were keen with Bradfo sitting down with the eventual All-Star Game MVP of the contest before he hit his three straight homers in the swing-off. That, of course, would be Kyle Schwarber. The Phillies slugger chats with Bradfo about how far he has come, and how he has viewed contract years in the past and how he is looking at this one. There are also conversations with two other guys who have lived the contract year life - Pete Alonso and Robbie Ray. It is some great discussion about a very timely topic.

LA Dodgers vs. San Francisco Giants MLB Pick Prediction by Tony T. Dodgers at Giants 4PM ET—Yoshinobu Yamamoto gets the start for LA. Yamamoto has eighteen starts with an ERA of 2.77 with WHIP of 1.07. The right hander fans 27.9% with 8.7% walks. Ground balls are 52.9% with 0.92 home runs per nine innings. Robbie Ray is starting for San Francisco. Ray, nineteen starts deliver an ERA of 2.63 with WHIP of 1.10. The left hander strikes out 26.8% with 9.2% walks. Ground balls dealt at 39.7% with 0.96 home runs per nine innings.

Patrick Bailey's walk-off inside-the-park homerun on Tuesday night is something that will be burned into Giants' lore for decades to come. Pagan's similar feat happened 12 years ago, and we still talk about it. This one was better. We open the episode discussing Bailey's round-tripper and how the Giants have picked themselves up after a horrific streak to end June. Getting swept at home by the Marlins and losing two of three to the lowly White Sox put them 9 games behind their rivals, but since then, they have won 6 of 8 and the Dodgers have lost 6 in a row, closing the gap to 5 games. Three Giants pitchers were selected to the All Star Game (Webb, Ray, Rodriguez) and the mid-summer classic will feature the ABS challenge system, which is eventually coming to the big leagues. Although Devers has been meddling in mediocrity since coming to SF (.225/2/9), Adames seems to be waking up, hitting .313 with a .910 OPS over the last 2 weeks. Justin Verlander is flummoxed, and although he isn't having a great year, it's not catastrophic. Even a pitcher with his stats (4.70 ERA, 1.41 WHIP) should have a couple of wins on a winning team. Yet, he is winless in 15 Giants starts. He'll tie the MLB record if he doesn't win his next start. However, the pen has blown 6 leads for him, and he has the second-worst run support of any starting pitcher in the bigs (26 runs in 15 starts). Heading into LA is big. The set up the rotation with Webb, Roupp, and Ray, but the Dodgers counter with May, Ohtani, and Yamamoto. They will be anywhere between 2 and 8 games back of the Dodgers after this series, a huge potential swing. www.torturecast.comfacebook.com/torturecast@torturecast

Keep or Kut - Chad (@chadyoung) and Pete (@PeteBBaseball) take a look at some first-half-keeper-league All Stars (largely based on value gained compared to their ADP) after a spirited conversation about their Head-to-Head Heroes from last week.5:00 - Chad picks George Springer as his Head-to-Head Hero. Pete goes with Jasson Domínguez and Michael Busch in a two-way tie.16:30 - Conversation about our keeper league All Stars begins with Emmet Sheehan, oddly enough.23:02 - Kris Bubic and Andrew Abbott are looking like probable keepers for 2026 and make the Keeper League All Star Team.29:00 - Chad likes what Ryne Nelson is cooking up this season. Pete is worried about the fastball usage.33:52 - Casey Mize has a 2.63 ERA through 15 starts. Is this a breakout and slam dunk keeper, or is he a first-half fluke.35:34 - Grant Holmes and Edward Cabrera look really good! Cabrera's success is long overdue for Pete!41:45 - Both hosts are excited about the idea of keeping Hunter Goodman and Andy Pages for 2026 at this point. 46:38 - Eugenio Suárez, Christian Yelich, Sonny Gray, and Merrill Kelly are having solid seasons, but are their seasons so good that managers should consider keeping them?49:31 - Jhoan Duran could be a potential keeper based on his numbers so far, potentially in roto leagues, at least.50:28 - Nick Pivetta should make the keeper league All Star team, the homers are down!51:25 - Will Vest and Emilio Pagán generate a short conversation about how to approach closer keepers.53:39 - Cristopher Sánchez is looking like a slam dunk keeper given his 2025 cost.55:08 - Nathan Eovaldi is good when he pitches, but is probably not a keeper 2026. 55:53 - Byron Buxton once again gets talked about on Keep or Kut.57:23 - Carlos Rodón and Robbie Ray are pitching like aces, but their costs were more pricey than most of the players we had discussed to this point. Does it look like they will still be worth keeping for 2026, despite that cost?59:38 - Bryan Woo is most likely going to be a keeper in a lot of leagues.1:01:03 - Joe Ryan and Pete Crow-Armstrong end the show.

San Francisco Giants left-hander Robbie Ray joins Willard and Dibs to discuss hits hot start, chances of making the All-Star team, Buster Posey's influence and pizza toppings!

It must have been somewhat depressing or bittersweet for Buster Posey to make the decision to DFA LaMonte Wade Jr., a consistent player in this lineup that suited up with Posey for the 2021 season when they both performed well and won the NL West as teammates. Yet, it was a move they had to make. The Giants ranked last or near last in all offensive categories at first base. It also serves as a wake-up call for other players that are underperforming this year. The Giants also DFA catcher Sam Huff, which is a little puzzling considering he was the NL Pitcher of the Month's (Robbie Ray) main backstop and brought up two journeymen from Sacramento and signed another free agent journeyman. The Giants were in an incredible streak of 16 games of scoring 4 runs or less, averaging only 2 during that streak, yet their team ERA was an unbelievable 1.77, making them a competitive 7-9. The moves worked, at least for game one, as the Giants roared back from a 5-0 deficit to clip the Padres 6-5 after two heart-wrenching extra-inning losses to their southern rivals. Eric and Chad break it down and even bring in some baseball superstitions that the Giants may want to consider going forward.www.torturecast.comfacebook.com/torturecast@torturecast

Thrill and Eric discuss the Giants' struggles offensively, citing their inability to get clutch hits. They praise the team's pitching staff, led by Robbie Ray and Webb, but express concern about the lack of a superstar hitter. Thrill shares a story about his time playing for the Giants, including a humorous anecdote about rookie hazing.

Former MLB Pitcher Josh Towers and Scott Seidenberg discuss the latest around Major League Baseball. Juan Soto's struggles, the Dodgers slump and futures bets to make right now! In this episode, Scott Seidenberg and Josh Towers dissect a range of MLB storylines, with a heavy focus on Juan Soto's troubled transition to the Mets. Soto's recent on-field behavior—particularly his lack of hustle on a hit off the Green Monster and only securing one hit across three games against the Yankees—sparked criticism. Mets manager Carlos Mendoza announced plans to speak with Soto about his effort. Towers emphasized how professional athletes are expected to hustle regardless of performance, especially when part of a new organization. He critiqued Soto's declining stats (.246 average in 2025, subpar defense) and called out the media narrative that built him up unrealistically since his 2020 breakout. He believes the $765 million valuation raised unsustainable expectations. Michael Kay, based on conversations with Mets and Yankees insiders, claimed Soto appears “glum” and without joy. Soto reportedly preferred to remain a Yankee, but his family urged him to accept the Mets' offer. Towers, who played for both franchises, praised the Yankees for their professionalism and structure, saying it fosters respect and accountability. In contrast, he noted that the Mets, while improving, still lack the Yankees' foundational stability. Scott and Josh then evaluated the NL East race. Seidenberg endorsed betting on the Phillies to win the division at +130, noting their strong veteran core (Harper, Schwarber, Wheeler) and manager Dave Dombrowski's history of bold moves. Josh echoed this but pointed out the Phillies' need for young talent infusion, something they've lacked in recent years. They also discussed the Braves' resurgence, who started 0-8 but have since gone 24-15, with key players like Max Fried returning. Shifting to the Dodgers, both hosts criticized Dave Roberts' pitching management. The team's constant injuries and overuse of bullpen arms have led to four consecutive home losses. Towers questioned the effectiveness of the organization's throwing programs and training strategies. Despite Yamamoto's reliability, the rest of the rotation, including Snell, Glasnow, and Kershaw, remains inconsistent or injured. Fried's Cy Young candidacy was explored in depth. With a 1.29 ERA and consistent dominance, Josh called him the clear front-runner. Other contenders like Robbie Ray, Hunter Brown, and Chris Bubik were noted, though Fried's consistency set him apart. On the offensive side, Pete Crow Armstrong's recent surge sparked MVP speculation, but Josh dismissed it due to his relatively weak OBP and limited consistency. Attention turned to the Texas Rangers, whose rotation (deGrom, Eovaldi, Mowley) and improving offense make them serious contenders. The coaching shift toward personalized, non-analytic-heavy hitting plans has improved their situational batting. They also discussed trade rumors including Bo Bichette, Kenley Jansen, and Sandy Alcantara potentially moving before the deadline. The Orioles and Rockies came under fire for poor development. The Rockies' minus-150 run differential led Scott to predict they might break the all-time worst record. Josh argued that both teams lack direction and accountability, especially with player growth and clubhouse culture. Lastly, home field advantage in 2025 has reached historic levels, with home teams winning 56.5% of games, the best rate since 2005. Betting trends show high returns for home favorites, and Seidenberg emphasized this is a year to follow such patterns. The hosts closed with MVP and Cy Young betting odds, a promo for Pregame.com, and a final note on the season's unpredictability and remaining opportunities. Learn more about your ad choices.

Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner break down MLB betting for Tuesday. The guys also give out best bets. he MLB Tuesday Preview & Best Bets podcast hosted by Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner delivers a game-by-game analysis of the 13 MLB matchups scheduled for Tuesday. The show opens with some light NBA draft lottery banter, but the bulk of the discussion is tightly focused on baseball betting strategies, player performance, and team trends, all based on currently available betting lines. In the Brewers versus Guardians game, both hosts express doubts over Quinn Priester's reliability as the Brewers have lost four straight games he's started, providing him minimal run support. Logan Allen's control issues are acknowledged, but the Guardians are still preferred as a slight home favorite. The Twins against the Orioles matchup sees both hosts backing the Twins, riding their eight-game win streak and taking advantage of Kade Povich's continued struggles, especially at home. Munaf suggests taking the Twins team total over due to their potent offense. For the White Sox and Reds, Griffin leans toward the Reds' offense prevailing, noting the White Sox's dreadful 3-17 road record. Abbott's limited innings aren't seen as problematic due to the White Sox's overall weaknesses. In the Cardinals and Phillies clash, Sonny Gray's consistency and St. Louis' bullpen strength make them an appealing underdog, with both hosts preferring an under if the total reaches eight. The Rays versus Blue Jays game highlights the collapse of Tampa Bay's pitching, with Shane Boz's recent blowups making the Blue Jays the favored side, especially with Jose Berrios pitching steadily at home. In the Pirates versus Mets game, both see little hope for the Pirates despite a recent managerial change, with Munaf favoring the Mets run line and team total over, given Kodai Senga's strong stats. For Nationals versus Braves, the consensus is Braves team total over, citing Soroka's vulnerability and the Braves' offensive firepower, though bullpen concerns persist. The Marlins against Cubs matchup leans strongly toward the Cubs, with their superior offense and Ben Brown's solid form giving them a significant edge. The Rockies versus Rangers game reflects both hosts' disdain for the Rockies' 2-17 road record, suggesting Rangers -1.5 and under 8.5 as the play, with the Arlington ballpark playing pitcher-friendly. Royals versus Astros is a more cautious game, with both acknowledging Michael Wacha's solid form and Framber Valdez's unpredictability when a favorite, but Munaf leans Astros at -140. The Angels versus Padres game is flagged as a potential upset, with Dylan Cease expected to regress after his long no-hit bid. Both hosts side with the Angels due to the risky price on the Padres. In the Yankees versus Mariners showdown, Griffin emphasizes Brian Wu's 11-1 home record and favors Mariners as a home underdog while also suggesting the under, citing the ballpark's suppression of runs. Finally, the Diamondbacks versus Giants game is strongly supported by both as a Giants money line play, highlighting Robbie Ray's perfect 8-0 start record for the Giants. Brentt Fott's last strong outing against the Dodgers is considered unsustainable in the pitcher-friendly Oracle Park, especially given the Giants' ability to win division games at home. Best bets for the day are Griffin's pick of Guardians ML at -120 and Munaf's pick of Giants ML at -105. The overall tone reflects skepticism toward big favorites, leaning instead on undervalued home underdogs and carefully selected unders in specific matchups, especially where bullpen and venue factors suppress offense.

Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner get you set for this weekends MLB betting. We kick things off with the Friday games and offer up best bets. On the May 2 episode of RJ Bell's Dream Preview MLB Podcast, hosts Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner deliver sharp, stats-backed insights across the full Friday MLB slate. With Griffin riding a six-podcast win streak and Munaf at a 7–3 record on the season, both bring analytical edge to betting lines, pitching matchups, and team trends. They begin with Nationals vs. Reds, with Griffin skeptical of Cincinnati's high price (-161) and backing underdog Mitchell Parker (+146) despite his weak fielding. Munaf notes the Nationals have won four of his five starts. Next is Padres at Pirates. Cease hasn't pitched six innings since early April, and Keller's inconsistency leads both hosts to favor the Pirates at +142. Diamondbacks vs. Phillies features Jesus Luzardo (1.73 ERA) facing Merrill Kelly. Due to Arizona's bullpen injuries and Philly's undervalued pitching, Griffin names Phillies -142 his best bet. In Royals vs. Orioles, Wacha faces off against Kremer, who's allowed 5 ER in his last two starts. Still, doubts about Kansas City's offense tip the scale toward Baltimore. Yankees (-235) host the Rays with Max Fried on the mound. Fried boasts a career 0.42 ERA vs. Tampa. The hosts avoid fading him. Guardians visit the Blue Jays, where Chris Bassitt has allowed only 1 ER in 11 home innings. Logan Allen struggled defensively last game. Munaf leans Jays in the first five. Twins vs. Red Sox offers value on Boston at -103. Griffin questions Joe Ryan's volatility and trusts Bello's recent support. For A's-Marlins, the A's are road favorites behind debuting Gunnar Hoglund. Griffin calls this mispriced, siding with Miami (+123). Dodgers and Yamamoto face Braves, with Yamamoto holding a 1.06 ERA. Despite a steep -172 price, Munaf backs L.A., while Griffin questions Braves' rare underdog status. In Astros vs. White Sox, Framber Valdez faces Jonathan Cannon. Given inconsistent Astros bats and Cannon's walk rate, Munaf avoids the -235 price. Griffin leans under. Mariners at Rangers features Brian Wu vs. Jack Leiter. With Texas 15-2 to the under at home, Munaf's best bet is under 8.5. Griffin leans Rangers as a home dog. Cubs vs. Brewers sees Ben Brown against Quinn Priester. Despite Brown's strikeout potential, Griffin and Munaf both back the Brewers at plus money due to home-field motivation. For Mets vs. Cardinals, Clay Holmes faces Sonny Gray, who has dominated at home. Munaf backs the Cardinals citing Gray's form. In Tigers vs. Angels, Skubal dominates and Trout's IL status hurts L.A. Munaf recommends Tigers via moneyline or run line. Lastly, Giants host Rockies with Robbie Ray on the mound. Ray's teams are 6-0 in his starts, but Griffin finds -280 too steep and suggests a Rockies run line. Munaf agrees on targeting Giants team total. Griffin's best bet: Phillies -142. Munaf's: Mariners vs. Rangers under 8.5. The show closes encouraging listeners to shop lines, list pitchers, and monitor late moves, all key in chasing sharp MLB edges.
