The New York Yankees make a quiet move by signing Seth Brown to a minor league deal, but that is just background noise compared to the real drama. All eyes are on Cody Bellinger and the contract decision that could reshape New York baseball. The Yankees have reportedly put their best offer on the table, a five-year deal they refuse to go past. Meanwhile, the New York Mets are lurking with the same strategy they used earlier this offseason, a massive short-term contract designed to outbid everyone without long-term risk. Add in Scott Boras working the market and the possibility of the Toronto Blue Jays jumping in, and the pressure is mounting. Is Bellinger better off locking in long-term security with the Yankees, or betting on himself one more time with a short, high-dollar deal elsewhere? The Mets' roster strategy, the Yankees' luxury tax stance, and the shrinking free agent market all collide as this decision reaches its breaking point. The clock is ticking, and a resolution feels imminent.
Send us a textIn this episode of The Quivercast, we sit down with former MLB pitcher, surfer, and surfboard shaper Daniel Norris @danielnorris18. Growing up in the mountains of Tennessee, Daniel had a very “non-surf” childhood—until high school, when discovering Jack Johnson and the film Thicker Than Water completely changed his trajectory. After being drafted by the Toronto Blue Jays, Daniel did what any newly inspired surfer would do: he walked into a surf shop, bought his first board, and taught himself how to surf from scratch.As his time in the water grew, so did his curiosity about surfboards. Surrounded by shaper friends, Daniel decided to shape his own board—and quickly realized he had a real knack for it and a deep love for the craft. We talk about that transition, creativity beyond baseball, and finding purpose outside professional sports. Daniel also shares a bit about life at home with his wife, pro surfer Sage Erickson, and the joy of becoming a brand-new dad. A great conversation about following inspiration wherever it leads.Order a board!

6AM- We are just three days away from Seahawks/49ers round 3 at Lumen Field. The coaching battle remains at the forefront of the conversation after Mike MacDonald's defense shut down Kyle Shanahan's offense last time, so how will both coaches game plan for this playoff matchup? :30- Mike Tomlin announced he is stepping down as head coach of the Steelers after 19 years. With Tomlin's decision, the AFC North is now without John Harbaugh and Mike Tomlin, two staples in the division and in the NFL, but with Pittsburgh stuck in mediocrity, sometimes you have to break it all down to build it back up and this might be the perfect time for them to do that. :45- We can't forget about offseason baseball! Kyle Tucker has a big (money) decision to make and no, he won't be coming to Seattle… and no, the Mariners would never have offered him $50 million a year.

While Wild Card Weekend dominated the headlines, a major MLB bomb dropped in the background. The New York Yankees are now operating under the assumption that Cody Bellinger could sign elsewhere as contract talks stall over years, not dollars. Evan, Tiki, and Shaun break down the reported standoff with Scott Boras, why the Yankees are refusing to negotiate against themselves, and why this situation feels eerily similar to what the New York Mets dealt with last year. The conversation pivots to potential fallback options, including interest around Kyle Tucker, the realities of short term high AAV deals, and why teams like the Los Angeles Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays loom large in the background. Plus, a deeper debate on free agency leverage, market reality, and why Yankee fans may want to stay calm as this staring contest plays out.

The 2025-26 MLB offseason is in full swing, and the action since mid-December has been nonstop! We're covering every major signing, trade, and rumor that's reshaping rosters ahead of Spring Training. Japanese aces and sluggers are making big splashes stateside: right-hander Tatsuya Imai inks a 3-year, $54M deal with the Houston Astros to bolster their rotation alongside Hunter Brown, while power-hitting first baseman Kazuma Okamoto signs a 4-year, $60M contract with the Toronto Blue Jays, adding serious thump to a lineup already featuring Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Reliever Pete Fairbanks cashes in with a 1-year, $13M pillow contract with the Miami Marlins as he looks to rebound and hit free agency again next winter. On the trade front, the deals are flying: the Tampa Bay Rays send second baseman Brandon Lowe to the Pittsburgh Pirates for prospects, giving the Bucs a much-needed lefty bat. The Rays continue their reload by shipping young starter Shane Baz to the Baltimore Orioles in a separate move. In one of the biggest shocks, the St. Louis Cardinals trade veteran catcher Willson Contreras to the Boston Red Sox, instantly upgrading Boston's offense behind the plate.

Former Major League Baseball pitcher, Steve Trachsel and Chef Jason Morse with help from pitmaster, Doug Scheiding, sling a heaping helping of baseball and barbecue talk on episode 323 Steve Trachsel was a Major League pitcher for 16 years. Known primarily for his time with the Chicago Cubs and the New York Mets, he also played for the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, the Toronto Blue Jays, and the Baltimore Orioles. He first joined us on episode 127 and then again on episode 143 during which he discussed a masterful gem he threw against the Boston Red Sox as he outdueled Pedro Martinez. In this appearance we discuss the game he pitched on August 26, 2005 as he returned to the rotation after an injury and beat the San Francisco Giants 1-0. The one run was supplied by David Wright's solo home run in the second inning. Steve is a huge fan of barbecue and we are joined by Pitmaster, Doug Scheiding as all of us talk baseball and barbecue. Chef Jason Morse aka Chef J had his first experience grilling and smoking meats when he was a Boy Scout. His passion was further stoked during childhood visits to the Hawaiian island of Kauai, where his grandfather served in the U.S. Army, exposing him to a culture that honors fire-smoked cuisine. As a teenager, Jason was frying up tortillas at a Mexican restaurant and honing his knife skills at a steakhouse in the suburbs of Minnesota. Jason then pursued a culinary degree at Johnson & Wales University. Chef J serves as Ace Hardware's national chef spokesperson and BBQ expert. He also runs a culinary consulting business, 5280 Culinary. He has led Colorado Proud campaign initiatives to promote the quality of locally produced meats and agriculture. Chef J led a healthy cooking education program for nearly 70,000 Denver, Colorado kids. His service earned him an invite to help launch a White House initiative called the ‘Chefs Move to Schools‘ program, impacting millions of kids in their knowledge of nutritious cooking. He is also the proud founder of Chef J's BBQ Provisions, a line of flavor-packed products that elevate his inventive BBQ recipes and can be found at Ace Hardware stores.

As 2025 comes to a close, Sportly looks back at a year that reshaped sports far beyond the scoreboard. Host Kavitha Davidson reflects on defining moments across leagues and borders—from historic performances by A'ja Wilson and Shohei Ohtani to the cultural impact of the NBA's new media era, the resurgence of tennis rivalries, and the continued growth of women's sports. This year-end episode revisits some of Sportly's most meaningful stories, including the political legacy of ping-pong diplomacy, the origins of women's sports in the U.S., the Boston Marathon as a site of collective memory, Canada's national identity through the Toronto Blue Jays, and the ongoing fight for Indigenous sovereignty in lacrosse ahead of the 2028 Olympics. The episode also confronts the more complex truths of 2025: sports betting scandals, labor disputes, media consolidation, and what happens when billion-dollar sports institutions struggle to regulate themselves. Looking ahead, Kavitha explores what's coming next: the 2026 World Cup in North America, the Milano Cortina Winter Olympics, and the unanswered questions that will define the future of sports. Sportly is a podcast about sports, culture, politics, and identity, and why the stories behind the games matter just as much as the games themselves. Host: Kavitha A.

Aram and Peter attack two of the bigger players in the offseason to this point: the Toronto Blue Jays and the Baltimore Orioles.

With the Winter Meetings in the books, Evan Petzold and Chris Brown break down on "Days of Roar" the Detroit Tigers' bullpen upgrades, signing Kyle Finnegan to a two-year contract and Kenley Jansen to a one-year contract with a club option. Can both veteran relievers maintain their past success in the 2026 season? There are reasons for confidence — and reasons for concerns. We also add context to the Drew Anderson signing, then debate the next player to lose a spot on the 40-man roster: Justyn-Henry Malloy or Bailey Horn? Baseball America prospects writer Geoff Pontes joins the show to analyze the Tigers' farm system, including the loss of RJ Petit in the Rule 5 draft, the acquisition of Johan Simon from the Toronto Blue Jays in the Chase Lee trade and the Tigers' updated top-10 prospect rankings, featuring Kevin McGonigle, Max Clark, Hao-Yu Lee and Max Anderson, among others — but not Thayron Liranzo. To wrap up, Petzold and Brown evaluate the starting rotation, including the trade rumors surrounding Tarik Skubal and whether the Tigers are making a mistake by not pursuing frontline starters.

The Toronto Blue Jays made a major impact on the baseball world when they won the AL pennant and came within a game of winning the World Series this past season. However, just because they got so close to a title doesn't mean they didn't see room for improvement, and with one fell swoop, they found themselves a new potential ace for their rotation.On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman talk about the mega deal that Dylan Cease received from the Blue Jays, as he finalized a 7-year, $210 million contract to hopefully lead them right back to the World Series next year. Did Toronto jump the gun a little too quickly to bring in the seven-year veteran or were they right to strike before any other team could bid for Cease's services?Later, Jake and Jordan discuss the other moves that saw pitchers finding new homes, including the Boston Red Sox trading for St. Louis Cardinals starter Sonny Gray, the New York Mets signing Devin Williams to a three-year deal and the Baltimore Orioles bringing in Ryan Helsley to help with their bullpen. Then the guys take a look back at their bold predictions for the 2025 season and whether any actually came true.2:31 — The Opener: Cease to Toronto25:03 — Scott Boras Scoreboard update29:27 — We Need To Talk About: Sonny to Boston42:33 — Around The League: Devin & Helsley's new homes55:04 — Turbo Mode: '25 predictions recap Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:
