Marc Malusis addresses the "genuine concern" of the Mets faithful regarding the lack of additions to the starting rotation. While callers worry the team is being run like a small-market franchise, Moose reminds listeners that David Stearns was hired specifically to overhaul the organization's structure. He highlights that while the team has moved on from several "homegrown" staples, the offseason is far from over. The conversation also touches on the pressure of Steve Cohen's expectations and the potential resurgence of Mark Vientos as an internal solution to the lineup's power needs.
The Orioles missed out on Michael King in free agency. He's heading back to San Diego on a very hefty three-year contract. Is the starting pitcher market getting too inflated for the O's?

Ben & Woods start the 8am hour by having some fun at Ben's expense because we have a new hotline sponsorship here at 97.3 The Fan, but the copy doesn't seem to give Ben as much trouble as previous ones. Then we play a game of "Take On Woods" before we get to today's Padres Smorgasbord, and the topic of the day is do the Padres need to focus their attention (and money) more on adding starting pitching or offensive production?

From 'Baseball Isn't Boring' (subscribe here): What a first day of the 2025 postseason! Bradfo was boots on the ground at Yankee Stadium to get a first-hand look at a dynamic that should be celebrated throughout the baseball world - the return of dominant starting pitching to the postseason. He not only breaks down Garrett Crochet's 117-pitch outing (with help from a conversation with Crochet), but also joins Gordo (Play Tessie) to reflect on a flurry of memorable starts throughout the Wild Card round. A year after the relievers pitched more innings than the starters in the postseason, we might be getting back to the alpha starting pitchers taking over in the playoffs once again. And to tie a bow on the discussion, Bradfo also talks with David Cone about functioning as a workhorse in the postseason. He did, after all, throw 152 pitches in one playoff game 30 years ago.

Starting Pitching
The Brewers swept the Pirates and pulled closer to their goals, where it appears a playoff berth and first-round playoff bye are looking inevitable. Brewers reporter Curt Hogg and host JR Radcliffe explore the severity of the recent rash of bullpen injuries (and Christian Yelich), the likelihood of Quinn Priester as the No. 2 starter in the playoffs, the breakthrough performance by Jacob Misiorowski on Sunday and what type of extension would make sense for white-hot second baseman Brice Turang, who has become one of the team's most indispensable bats. Will Jake Bauers make the playoff roster? Is Brandon Woodruff all the way back? In Three Up Three Down (35:15), they ponder the elusive concept of the check swing, Aaron Civale's new landing spot and a late-season promotion for Jesús Made. In Remembrew When (53:15), George Scott hits a homer to break up a 1975 no-hitter with one batter to get. In Curt Blanche (58:15), Curt yells at clouds as football returns. Then, JR sits down with Brewers reliever Craig Yoho (1:06:00), whose role in the bullpen could get a bump after the rash of injuries. They discuss his crazy injury history -- including Tommy John surgery before he even became a pitcher, the development of his changeup, his unusually small signing bonus and his quick journey to the big leagues.
