Welcome to Episode 107 of Tablesetters! The MLB postseason has finally arrived, and we are diving deep into all four Wild Card matchups, exploring the stakes, storylines, and keys that could determine who advances. We begin in the Bronx with Yankees against Red Sox, a rivalry that has defined October baseball for decades. These two have met six times in the postseason since 1999, and Boston has claimed victory in the last three. This time New York counters with Max Fried, Carlos Rodón, and the most powerful lineup in the game. The question is whether Boston's bullpen and the brilliance of Garrett Crochet can once again swing the balance in their favor. Next comes Padres against Cubs, their first postseason encounter since 1984. San Diego brings elite strikeout arms and perhaps the strongest bullpen in baseball, while Chicago leans on depth, defense, and the unshakable energy of Wrigley Field. This series could turn entirely on who controls the late innings. In the Central, it is Guardians against Tigers, a matchup that feels transformed from their earlier meetings. Cleveland enters October riding one of the hottest Septembers in recent memory, while Detroit boasts the ace of the year in Tarik Skubal. It is a contest between momentum and sustained excellence. Out West we find the underdog story: Reds against Dodgers. The defending champions return armed with Ohtani, Betts, and Freeman, but Cincinnati has a blueprint of its own with Hunter Greene's overpowering fastball and Terry Francona's postseason expertise. The real question is whether the Reds can strike early and rewrite the script. Throughout the episode we cover what truly decides these short series: rotation matchups, bullpen sequencing, defensive sharpness, and the single swing that can turn a season. October baseball is defined by chaos, and the Wild Card round is the first spark. Follow us on Instagram and X @tablesetterspod, subscribe to the show, and share with your baseball circle. The road to the World Series begins now.  

Highlights: Cleveland sports had a wild week, with dramatic Guardians wins and unexpectedly large home crowds. Jose Ramirez's playoff consistency contrasts with Francisco Lindor's limited postseason success since joining the Mets. Jose's commitment to Cleveland shows in his extension and emotional postgame celebration declaring “This is my home.” Terry Francona's magic continues with the Reds, despite their lack of standout stats or star players. Stephen Vogt's appeal to fans shows his understanding of Cleveland's working-class culture and school-night realities. Guardians pulled off a historic comeback, overcoming a 15.5-game deficit to win the division. The team's resilience recalls the 1914 Boston Braves, who rallied from 15 games back to win. Guardians starters had a streak of 19 games allowing two or fewer runs, a rare achievement. Baseball's unpredictability and “never over until it's over” nature make it a unique test of faith. Progressive Field's renovations helped attract younger fans, blending tradition with modern fan experiences. Guardians reached 2 million in attendance for back-to-back years, a milestone for a small-market team. Chase DeLauter joins the playoff taxi squad, signaling potential late-season impact if needed. Aidan Hutchinson was left in one-on-one matchups 17 times against Browns swing tackle Cornelius Lucas?. Quinshon Judkins and Harold Fannin Jr. were praised for their impact, especially Judkins' ability to turn short gains into longer runs. Only one solid performance in four games; a touchdown was allowed on special teams against Detroit. There's reluctance to reintegrate Watson despite his eligibility to return, with comparisons to awkward social encounters. Both hosts agreed that starting Gabriel wouldn't solve deeper offensive issues and could expose him to unnecessary risk. Lonzo Ball expressed surprise that Cleveland had water (Lake Erie), highlighting how little some players know about the city before arriving. Cavs media day injury updates on Darius Garland and Max Strus. Uniform Talk: Mixed reactions to the Browns' “Alpha Dawg” uniforms. Some fans loved them, others (including Terry) did not.

Guest: Blue Jays Associate Manager DeMarlo Hale The Blue Jays are going into the season's final weekend having clinched a playoff spot but not knowing whether they'll be the first, second or fourth seed in the American League. The only thing that's assured is that they will open the playoffs at home, whether that's in the wild card round or with a first-round bye. We talk to Jays' associate manager DeMarlo Hale about a wild week in which the Jays won just twice in eight tries and were almost swept by both Kansas City and Boston. Hale, who was John Gibbons' bench coach with the Jays in their 2015 and '16 playoff runs, and also coached in post-seasons under Terry Francona and Buck Showalter, weighs in on the playoffs to come, on the Jays sputtering to the finish line and on all the recent controversies with umpires and replay reviews. Also, we open the mailbag and take about a dozen of your questions, most of which have to do with the playoff roster and starting rotation. And thoughts on DFAing Alek Manoah.

Off The Bench is back weekdays from 10a to 11a followed by The Stone Shields Show from 11a to noon! Under the glaring lights of Great American Ball Park, the Cincinnati Reds' playoff dreams flickered and faded in the cruel twilight of extra innings. On September 24, 2025, a fired-up crowd of 30,725 watched in stunned silence as the Pittsburgh Pirates snatched a 4-3 victory in the 11th, delivering a dagger to Cincinnati's NL wild-card hopes. Tied with Arizona and just one game behind the Mets entering the night, the Reds now stare at a precarious half-game deficit with only five contests left—a loss that feels like the backbreaker in a season of tantalizing what-ifs. The evening began as a pitcher's duel for the ages, pitting Reds ace Hunter Greene against Pirates phenom Paul Skenes, the NL Cy Young frontrunner. Greene, battling for his 8th win, scattered five hits over six innings, allowing two earned runs while fanning seven. But Skenes was untouchable, surrendering just four hits in six scoreless frames, whiffing seven and etching his name in franchise lore with his 211th strikeout—a Pirates record for a righty. Pittsburgh scratched out a 2-0 lead in the second on Bryan Reynolds' RBI single and Oneil Cruz's sacrifice fly, quieting the home faithful. Hope ignited in the eighth. Down 2-0, Noelvi Marte unleashed chaos with his first career inside-the-park homer, a liner off the wall that caromed wildly into left-center, allowing him to circle the bases untouched. The GABP erupted. Then, in the ninth, Tyler Stephenson crushed a solo shot off closer Dennis Santana, knotting it at 2-2 and forcing extras. "Stephenson's blast was pure adrenaline," Reds manager Terry Francona said postgame. "We had momentum." But baseball's heartless script twisted in the 10th. Jack Suwinski's RBI double plated the go-ahead run for a 3-2 Pirates edge. The Reds clawed back on Gavin Lux's sacrifice fly, tying it once more at 3-3. Agony peaked in the 11th: Spencer Horwitz's leadoff double scored Reynolds—his third run of the night—for a 4-3 lead. Cincinnati loaded the bases with two outs, hearts pounding, only for Marte to ground into a momentum-crushing force out against Yohan Ramirez. Final out. Ballgame over.

On Off The Bench and The Stone Shields Show today we discuss Reds vs. Pirates, Terry Francona's decision to stay put with Hunter Greene, whether the Bengals quite on Zac Taylor and more! Off The Bench is back weekdays from 10a to 11a followed by The Stone Shields Show from 11a to noon! Tonight, September 23, 2025, the Cincinnati Reds host the Pittsburgh Pirates in the opener of a pivotal three-game series at Great American Ball Park, with everything on the line in the NL Wild Card race. Sitting at 79-76 after a gritty 6-3 win over the Cubs on Saturday—capped by Spencer Steer's scorching four-homer streak—the Reds have clawed into the third Wild Card spot, one game ahead of the surging New York Mets (78-77) and tied with the Giants for the final berth. Their magic number to clinch is 6: a combination of Reds wins and Mets losses that locks in postseason entry. This isn't just survival; it's redemption for a franchise starved for October baseball since a 2020 Wild Card sweep. With six games left—all divisional, including this Pirates set and a road finale against the Brewers—the Reds control their destiny in the razor-thin NL Central scrum. A win tonight, behind probable starter Hunter Greene's electric heat, could drop that magic number to 5 and tilt momentum against a Pirates squad that's 72-83 but pesky at home. Lose, and the Mets' tiebreaker edge looms large, potentially dooming Cincinnati to another heartbreaking fade. Young guns like Elly De La Cruz and Steer have ignited a late surge, but the bullpen's fragility and road woes against Milwaukee amplify the peril. Playoffs mean national stage validation for GM Nick Krall's rebuild; missing them risks fan apathy and another lost winter. At stake: legacy, pride, and a ticket to the expanded postseason starting September 30. Win, and Cincy dreams big. Falter, and it's back to the drawing board.  On September 21, 2025, the Cincinnati Bengals suffered a brutal 48-10 loss to the Minnesota Vikings, their worst defeat ever, dropping them to 0-3. With Joe Burrow out (wrist fracture), backup Jake Browning struggled, completing 12 of 25 passes for 98 yards and two interceptions. The defense collapsed, allowing 412 yards, as Carson Wentz carved them up in relief of rookie JJ McCarthy. Fans on X erupted, slamming the "effortless" performance and Zac Taylor's play-calling. Despite the rout, insiders argue it's too early to call it quits, citing Taylor's playoff pedigree. The Bengals face a critical rebound test.

Paul Skenes didn't hold back, telling teammates it's time to “look in the mirror” and make the sacrifices needed to win. On this Bucco Brew, we break down Skenes' challenge and what it means for the Pirates' clubhouse. We also debate whether Andrew McCutchen just took his final at-bat at PNC Park—and if the Pirates should bring the franchise legend back next season. Plus, GM Ben Cherington says he's operating as if he'll return in 2026 and highlighted an improved farm system he plans to leverage for trades. Finally, we compare Pittsburgh's managerial choices of Derek Shelton and Don Kelly to the Reds' bold move to hire Terry Francona, and why the two clubs—once projected as equals—are now worlds apart. ☕ Powered by De Fer Coffee & Tea

On Off The Bench and The Stone Shields Show today we discuss defensive improvement for the Bengals, the Reds refusal to give in, NFL playoff predictions, Bengals vs. Vikings injury report and more! Off The Bench is back weekdays from 10a to 11a followed by The Stone Shields Show from 11a to noon! The Cincinnati Reds secured a victory against the St. Louis Cardinals on September 17, 2025, clinching the series with a strong performance led by Spencer Steer, who drove in five runs. The Reds' offense was potent, capitalizing on key moments to outpace the Cardinals, whose record fell to 73-77. The game, played at Busch Stadium, showcased Cincinnati's ability to exploit pitching mistakes, with Steer's standout contribution highlighted in posts on X. Despite their 74-75 record, the Reds remain a competitive force in the NL Central, though playoff odds are slim at 12.9%. This win underscores their resilience under manager Terry Francona, with the team leaning on offensive firepower to stay relevant in a tight wild card race. The Cincinnati Bengals' defense has emerged as a strength in 2025, particularly evident in their 17-16 Week 1 win over the Cleveland Browns. Under new defensive coordinator Al Golden, the unit limited Cleveland to 296 yards before a late drive, with DJ Turner II securing his first career interception and Jordan Battle adding another. Trey Hendrickson's sack on Joe Flacco forced a missed field goal, sealing the victory. The defense's performance was a marked improvement over 2024, when it struggled, allowing Cincinnati to overcome an anemic offense that managed just 141 total yards. This defensive resurgence has fueled optimism, with the Bengals (2-0) atop the AFC North, showing they can win gritty games. The Minnesota Vikings' Week 3 injury report ahead of their game against the Cincinnati Bengals lists 12 players, with over 20% of the 53-man roster affected. Quarterback J.J. McCarthy (ankle) and center Ryan Kelly (concussion) did not practice and are likely out, with Carson Wentz expected to start. Left tackle Justin Skule (concussion) also missed practice. Limited participants include linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel (concussion), safety Harrison Smith (illness), and others with minor injuries. Left tackle Christian Darrisaw (knee) and cornerback Jeff Okudah (concussion) were full participants, signaling potential returns. The Vikings face depth challenges but show encouraging signs Music from #InAudio: https://inaudio.org/ Track Name Holy (Trap).

From his roots in South Florida to catching Manny Ramirez bombs in high school, Napoli reflects on the journey that took him through iconic clubhouses and unforgettable teams.He talks about the impact of veterans like Daryl Strawberry and Eric Davis, learning leadership from Terry Francona, and what made the 2013 Red Sox and 2016 Cleveland teams so special. Napoli gives a behind-the-scenes look at what made Tito such a great manager, the dynamic between Big Papi and Pedroia, and why he took pride in mentoring younger teammates. As a true "glue guy," he explains the importance of building trust, having hard conversations, and the value of fundamental baseball.The conversation dives into how analytics are used in today's game and even how they've been turned against players in contract negotiations.

When it is a thousand degrees outside, Elly gets sick on the field and then homers, and we just stay in the air conditioning and curse climate change. Geaux Tigers! Congrats to LSU on their College World Series win, fair and square, unlike the suspicious victory in the Jello Shot Challenge for charity (we're looking at you, Paul and Livy). The Dodgers just have so much going on trying to overcome the bad press about staying mum as the city burns.  They are donating a million dollars, but for what exactly? Did they prevent ICE from entering the ballpark grounds? Nezza disregards the directive and sings the anthem in Spanish. And still no other players speak out. Terry Francona continues to charm, and Harry Caray's grandson reminds us to keep the L in “flag.” Manny inspires Andy to greatness and a new nickname. Woody keeps topping out at 451' homers. Cal Raleigh is quietly shattering records. A horrific foul ball to the dugout incident brings a ballpark together, and we wish Hunter Bigge a full recovery. Please let it cool off before Pride Night in Baltimore.We say,  “When Big Papi calls, you answer,” “no projectiles, no fists,” and “when it's done with jello shots, is it really fraud?”  Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Bluesky @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.
