Yankees' season ends in style—fans, including Dan from Carteret, weigh in as Jazz Chisholm brags then blows a key double play. Callers blame coaching, fume over Blue Jays' celebrations, and Jerry kicks off updates with the Jays' manager's “start spreading the news bitches.” Jazz, Schlittler, and Volpe reflect on a rough postseason, while A-Rod backs Boone. Schwarber crushes two homers, Jaxson Dart previews the Eagles game, and Boomer wonders how Fangio will cope without top receivers. Gio shuts down Mets fans gloating, laughs off the “munchkin man” Daboll call, and calls it a wrap after the dumbest call yet.

Yankees' season ends in chaos—Boomer blasts the pitching (except Schlittler) and the offense flops again. A-Rod calls the roster one of the worst ever, Jazz Chisholm's key error costs them, and Judge shines but Vlad outperforms. Shaun Morash fumes at the stadium, Jays' manager taunts with “start spreading the news bitches,” and Schwarber smashes two homers. Calls question Volpe's future, while Boone stays under contract.

The Yankees' season wrapped in chaos, and the reactions were just as wild. Boomer slammed the starting pitching—except Cam Schlittler—while the offense vanished when it mattered most. A-Rod called the roster one of the worst ever, Jazz Chisholm bragged about winning the World Series then blew a key double play, and Judge shined but Vlad stole the spotlight. Fans flooded the lines, debating everything from Cashman's job to who should manage—some dreaming of Jeter, Mattingly, Girardi, Cone, and Randolph, others just pleading for hitters who can hit. Postgame drama included the Blue Jays' manager taunting “start spreading the news bitches,” Schlittler breaking down the clubhouse mood, and Volpe reflecting on a rough postseason. Across the hour, every Yankee misstep was dissected, from petty celebrations to coaching critiques, leaving fans angry, confused, and begging for a team reboot.

BT and Sal deliver a fiery debate on Anthony Volpe's future, asserting there's "no way" he can be the Yankees' unquestioned starting shortstop in 2026 given his current struggles and low trade value. They argue the Yankees must either create a real competition for the spot—potentially with a player like Jose Caballero—or make a massive trade or free-agent signing for an established shortstop, which would force Volpe to second base (and likely mean moving on from Jazz Chisholm Jr. or Gleyber Torres). They call out General Manager Brian Cashman for backing himself into this corner and conclude that if Volpe can't earn it, a demotion to the minors in 2026 is the only viable option.

BT & Sal dive into the brutal, abrupt end of the Yankees' season, describing the emotional crash as a "ton of bricks." They dissect the team's philosophical failures—from a reliance on home runs and analytics to the disappointing performance of prospects like Volpe and Dominguez—and spar over who deserves blame and a spot on the 2026 roster. The conversation pivots to a fiery debate about celebrity attendance at major events, sparked by Timothée Chalamet's appearance, questioning if A-listers are true fans or just chasing the spotlight. The hour is capped off with a passionate Call of the Day segment featuring WFAN's own Suzyn Waldman, who weighs in on the Yankees' future and the "DH-only" prospects problem.

BT and Sal dive into the New York Yankees' shocking early playoff elimination by the Toronto Blue Jays, providing a fiery post-mortem on the franchise's longest World Series drought since 2009. The core of their argument is that the Blue Jays' roster—built with depth, contact, and versatility (exemplified by players like Ernie Clement and Jazz Chisholm's talent)—has a superior, more functional construction compared to the Yankees' flawed, home run-dependent philosophy. They critique the Yankees' lack of organizational change and their major offseason decision looming at shortstop with Anthony Volpe, whose position is no longer unquestioned. Finally, the segment wraps up with a turbulent NFL Week 6 Power Rankings discussion, showcasing significant upheaval after multiple top teams—including the Bills and Eagles—took losses.

BT and Sal tear into the New York Yankees' brutal, early playoff exit and the catastrophic failure of their "mash or whiff" home run philosophy. With the franchise now suffering its longest World Series drought since 1903, the hosts unleash a fiery post-mortem on the systemic flaws, exposing how the depth and versatility of a team like the Blue Jays have repeatedly trumped the Yankees' analytic agony. The guys dissect Anthony Volpe's vexing shortstop future, spar over who deserves to stay, and cap the hour with a no-holds-barred interview featuring Suzyn Waldman, who delivers her unfiltered, passionate hammer-drop on the state of the organization. Finally, they dive into the turbulence of the NFL's Week 6 Shake-Up and the contentious debate over celebrity 'clout-chasing' in sports.

The 2025 Yankees season is officially over. In this emotional instant reaction episode, Chris and the Podcast Paisan (AJ) host what feels like the Bronx Bombers' postseason wake. The Yankees' offense went silent once again, managing only three hits through eight innings before falling 5–2 to the Blue Jays in Game 4. Despite Cam Schlittler's strong start, sloppy defense from Jazz Chisholm and a quiet lineup sealed their fate.Chris and AJ unpack the collapse—Volpe's alarming strikeout rate, the team's one-dimensional hitting philosophy, and Boone's ongoing managerial issues. From comparing the Yankees' analytical approach to other AL contenders to venting about situational hitting and poor at-bats, the guys reflect on a season of “what ifs.” They also share lighter moments about fandom, future roster shakeups, and what comes next for Chase for 28 as they look toward 2026.Bullpen Q&A ☎️You have opinions just like we do so we want to hear from you!Email us at feedback@chasefor28.comConnect with us on Twitter @chasefor28podConnect with us on Instagram @chasefor28podSend a voicemail http://chasefor28.com/voicemailMerch

The Yankees are rolling thanks to rookie Cam Schlittler, whose 12-K performance drew comparisons to legends like Clemens and Seaver, while Boomer ignored all Volpe and Boone chatter. Jerry brought the sounds of Yankee domination, Stanton's near-home-run blunder, and Schlittler's cheeky social media clapbacks to Red Sox fans. Outside the Bronx, the Niners beat the Rams, Detroit and the Cubs advanced, and Week 5 NFL picks heated up—with Aaron Boone declaring, “we are badass,” and fans buzzing nonstop about Schlittler's heroics.

Rookie flamethrower Cam Schlittler carried the Bombers past the finish line with a performance Boomer compared to Clemens, Seaver, deGrom, even Nolan Ryan. Forget the Volpe or Boone chatter—Boomer's only talking about the kid who just pitched like a legend.

Rookie sensation Cam Schlittler put on a pitching clinic, shutting down the Red Sox with 12 strikeouts and sending the Yankees into a showdown with the Blue Jays. Boomer's loving it, ignoring any Volpe or Boone chatter, while even Alex Cora couldn't stop praising the kid. Detroit, the Cubs, and the Niners all advanced, but the real drama is Yankees vs. Blue Jays—pressure's on and sparks are flying!

Sal and BT were ecstatic over Anthony Volpe's stellar performance in the Yankees' recent series win, noting that the young shortstop chose an absolutely crucial time to play his best baseball. They highlighted his "big picture" contributions, particularly a key double play and an RBI hit, which helped the Yankees win without relying solely on their power hitting. For a player who has faced criticism for inconsistent play, Volpe's clutch hitting and clean defense in the high-pressure environment of the postseason were praised as an encouraging sign of balance and accountability for the entire team.

BT and Sal dove into Anthony Volpe's recent uptick in performance, particularly during the playoffs, with a caller suggesting he has been an under-the-radar asset since receiving a cortisone shot for a shoulder injury. While acknowledging his improved play—especially his defensive consistency, which was a major liability earlier in the year—Sal remained skeptical about his long-term ceiling, questioning what the "excuse" was for his first two years of inconsistency. Ultimately, both hosts agreed that if Volpe can maintain his defensive competence, his speed and occasional power make him a viable, high-upside option at the bottom of the lineup, but the key is him not being a defensive screw-up.

In this episode, Michele Volpe, Chief Operating Officer of the University of Pennsylvania Health System, shares how Penn Medicine is balancing operational efficiency, workforce strategy, and regional expansion. She highlights the organization's efforts to bring advanced therapies closer to communities while reinvesting in people and facilities to build a stronger future.

Sal and BT debated the true advantage in the Yankees-Red Sox best-of-three Wild Card Series, concluding that while the Yankees appear set up for success with their rotation, glaring issues could lead to an early exit. Sal is concerned about the Yankees' "flaws," specifically the shaky bullpen (trusting Bednar but not Williams or Weaver) and the inconsistent defense, singling out Volpe and Ben Rice's potential contributions. BT agreed that the high-stakes, short series magnifies these vulnerabilities, making it incredibly dangerous, even with a powerhouse like Aaron Judge in the lineup, who the hosts admit has historically underperformed in the postseason.

In this episode, Daniel Volpe discusses his latest novel “Slaughterhouse Moan,” exploring themes of horror, depravity, and redemption. He shares insights into his creative process, the evolution of his writing, and the personal experiences that shape his work.KeywordsDaniel Volpe, Slaughterhouse Moan, horror, depravity, redemption, creative process, writing evolutionTakeaways“Slaughterhouse Moan” is described as Volpe's most depraved work.The novel started as a short story called “My Beauties.”Volpe draws inspiration from real-life farming struggles.The book explores themes of isolation and economic insecurity.Volpe emphasizes story over gratuitous content.He believes in redemption for most characters.Volpe's writing retreats are crucial for his creative process.The novel is set in 2003, reflecting Volpe's own high school years.Volpe aims to entertain and provide an escape for readers.He sees vengeance as a recurring theme in his work.Sound bites"Slaughterhouse Moan is my most depraved work.""It started as a short story called My Beauties.""I draw inspiration from real-life farming struggles.""Isolation and economic insecurity are key themes.""I emphasize story over gratuitous content.""I believe in redemption for most characters.""Writing retreats are crucial for my creative process.""The novel is set in 2003, reflecting my high school years.""I aim to entertain and provide an escape for readers.""Vengeance is a recurring theme in my work."Daniel Volpe's Social Media and Website:Website: www.danielvolpeauthor.comTwitter: @DanielVolpeAuthorInstagram: @DanielVolpeAuthorFacebook: Daniel Volpe AuthorUpcoming Personal Appearances:HorrorCon 2023: www.horrorcon2023.comBook Signing at Dark Delicacies: www.darkdel.comGuest Speaker at the Horror Writers Association Conference: www.horror.org

The marathon is over, and the postseason is finally here. In Episode 114 of Chase for 28, Chris and the Podcast Padre wrap up the Yankees' 94–68 regular season, reflect on the ups and downs that defined the summer, and preview the highly anticipated Wild Card series against the Red Sox. From déjà vu records to the dangers of Chapman in October, the guys dive into how the Yankees match up against Boston and what it will take to survive and advance.The conversation also covers MVP debates between Aaron Judge and Cal Raleigh, Stanton's jaw-dropping home runs, surprising strikeout stats, and the key role players like Ben Rice and Cody Bellinger will need to play. The hosts then look across the league, making bold playoff predictions—including a potential Yankees vs. Brewers World Series matchup.

Sal passionately defends Anthony Volpe, arguing that despite a rough season, his recent performance and past postseason success show he is the Yankees' best option at shortstop. While acknowledging Volpe's "awful" year, Sal highlights his encouraging signs from the previous night, including key hits and sound defense. He contrasts Volpe's high-upside potential with the "stable" but less impactful performance of other options like Caballero, asserting that to win a World Series, the Yankees need to play their most talented players, and that's Anthony Volpe.

Harry Douglas says it says more about Joe Schoen than Brian Daboll that players seem to play better when leaving the Giants.

We soldier on without our dear leader, Kim, much like some of our players who are soldiering on without full use of their muscles and ligaments as they deal with nagging injuries and slumps. But we keep going, even in the face of overt White Christian Nationalism invading our sacred stadiums. The Yankees honor a man who hated them to his core, several of our guys are banged up with injuries, and our pitchers aren't getting enough run support. The mystery of Volpe's horrible season might be explained by a nagging injury, much like Kwan's steady decline in the second half. But Suzuki and Senga are still mysteries. Both had historic starts to their seasons only to completely disappear in the second half. Yamamoto continues to dominate while getting no run support, and Ohtani is still...checks notes...Ohtani.Who will make it to the postseason? We can't wait to find out. Just two weeks of regular season play to go.

Welcome to Episode 104 of Tablesetters. Devin and Steve are back to capture the drama, joy, and heartbreak of a September week that revealed everything we love and fear about baseball. In Los Angeles, the Phillies turned fatigue into fuel, clinching their second straight NL East crown in a game that began after a sleepless night of travel and ended in extra innings with Bryce Harper's fist-pumping eighth-inning home run and J.T. Realmuto's sacrifice fly. When the champagne popped, it wasn't just about celebration — it was about perspective. Garrett Stubbs made sure Harper could join the party with apple juice, and Harrison Bader's mantra rang through the room: “What a gift.” For a club that has known nothing but heartbreak since 2022, that phrase has become the soul of the team: gratitude, joy, and belief that this year can be different. Contrast that spirit with the Bronx, where Anthony Volpe has been grinding through a partially torn labrum since May, hitting just .197 with his defense slipping. Brian Cashman insists this is merely a “tough stretch,” but José Caballero's hot bat and steady glove have complicated the conversation. Caballero is hitting .314 since mid-August, and his emergence is forcing Aaron Boone to consider whether loyalty to Volpe is holding the team back. North of the border, the Blue Jays found a new reason to believe. Trey Yesavage, their top prospect, debuted with nine strikeouts in five innings, a franchise record, his splitter producing an absurd 11 whiffs on 14 swings. His 19 total whiffs put him in Kevin Gausman territory, and for a team already leading the AL East, his arrival feels less like the future and more like a weapon for right now. Toronto hasn't won a World Series since 1993, but Yesavage's debut makes that drought feel vulnerable. The Giants are also leaning into youth, promoting Bryce Eldridge, a 20-year-old, 6-foot-7 slugger ranked the No. 15 prospect in baseball. With 25 homers across Double-A and Triple-A and elite exit velocity numbers, Eldridge is being thrown straight into the fire of a Wild Card chase, where San Francisco sits just 1 ½ games back. With their first basemen producing a meager .614 OPS, Eldridge isn't just a curiosity — he's an immediate solution. In Detroit, fear gave way to relief when Tarik Skubal, the frontrunner for the AL Cy Young, exited his last start with side tightness. Initial panic subsided after imaging revealed no structural damage, and he's slated to pitch Thursday against Cleveland. His numbers speak to his dominance: 13–5, 2.26 ERA, 0.98 WHIP, 224 strikeouts in 185 innings. In a franchise that hasn't seen an ace like this since Hal Newhouser, Skubal is the difference between a quick October exit and a run that could echo through history. Out in Arizona, the Diamondbacks are embracing the stars — literally. Blaze Alexander's joke about undergoing a “horoscope” on his bruised elbow became a clubhouse rallying cry, and suddenly the D-backs are aligning at the right moment. Zac Gallen notched his 1,000th career strikeout, joining Randy Johnson and Brandon Webb, while a six-run sixth inning powered them to an 8–1 win over San Francisco. With Jordan Lawlar's RBI double, Geraldo Perdomo's five times on base, and James McCann's homer, Arizona is playing like a team that refuses to fade. In Milwaukee, the Brewers clinched their own ticket to October in a celebration filled with laughter and tenderness. After the fireworks and walk-off, manager Pat Murphy read aloud a letter he pretended came from the late Bob Uecker. Players laughed at the imagined line about being God's “third catcher,” but the tribute brought misty eyes too. Christian Yelich captured the moment perfectly: enjoy it, but don't forget — the job isn't done. And then there's Juan Soto, whose brilliance continues to collide with the Mets' collapse. His 40th home run put him in Barry Bonds and Jeff Bagwell's company with a 40–30–100 season, the first of its kind in Mets history. He is the ninth player to hit 40 for different teams in consecutive years, joining legends like Griffey, A-Rod, and Ohtani. Yet while Soto shines, the Mets stumble, 21–30 in the second half, their Wild Card lead slipping away. His season is a masterpiece, but without October, it may be remembered as a monument to wasted potential. From Philadelphia's “what a gift” mantra to Soto's historic swing in Queens, from rookies Yesavage and Eldridge redefining futures to Skubal and Gallen reminding us of aces past and present, Episode 104 is the story of September baseball. It's belief, heartbreak, and joy — colliding night after night as October looms. Follow us on Instagram and X @TablesettersPod, and join us as we set the table for another unforgettable week in the game we love.

For episode 263 of Yapping Yankees, I yap all about the Yankees scuffling against Detroit but bouncing back in Boston this past week, the division & wild card standings with 2 weeks left, team & individual player analysis, the continued Judge vs. Raleigh MVP debate, and the latest injury news mainly with Volpe's labrum tear!

We will discuss some of the players and who you are looking forward to seeing how they do?8.Listener Questions:a.Mac - Hey Rich, I'd be interested in yalls thoughts on Elly De La Cruz second half of the season? While he has been known to be streaky player the lack of home runs and even his normal stealing pace (past week he has started to get some again) during the second half has been bit confusing. Thanks!b.Collins - Should the Dodgers let Ohtani just come in as a RP in the playoffs and be a shutdown backend bullpen arm? c.Collins - FYPD: Roki was the consensus top pick last year. Of course, I took him. The next two top picks a year ago were Condon and Bazzana. How's that working out? Not great so far. With so many more top picks performing in the top round last year, how did a lot of us miss this, just bad luck or what?

Top 300? Top 15 at position? And does that differ slightly on age, like willing to keep someone who is a lot younger or not so much older?i.Context: I am in a 12 team Dynasty league with normal roster positions, with a 15 person minor league roster in CBS. I find myself sometimes keeping too many players so I really only change over 1 or 2 on the active roster, then struggle to figure out who to cut when a prospect gets called up and wonder if I should cut more people out the gate to take some risks, to be willing to cut them for prospects.h.Tim - What are you doing with these last couple of faab periods to prepare your team for next year? 9.What one or two hitters are you targeting for this weekend's FAAB?10.What one or two pitchers are you targeting for this weekend's FAAB?

Bienvenidos a Baseball News, el noticiero diario de Grandes Ligas en español ⚾

Joe begins the podcast by discussing the Anthony Volpe injury, why they let Volpe go so long, and why the Yankees season is on the line in Boston this weekend (1:03). Then, he talks about the Steve Ballmer-Aspiration allegations and why the NBA needs to get this right (16:57). Finally, Gordon Damer comes back on to give the Week 2 Lock$ in the NFL (32:50), & SO much more!

BT and Sal tore into the Yankees organization for their handling of Anthony Volpe's shoulder injury. The hosts were furious that the team let Volpe play for months with a partially torn labrum, even as his performance plummeted and he faced fan criticism. They accused the Yankees of being either "stupid" for not seeing the impact of the injury or, worse, deliberately hiding it to avoid accountability. The hosts argued that the organization's actions were a disservice to the player, ruining his confidence and potentially his career, all while misleading the public.

In a somber tribute to 9/11, BT and Sal discuss how sports are meant to be an escape but the current state of both the Mets and Yankees has become a new source of frustration. They dissect the Mets' shocking inconsistency, pondering whether they're better off with quirky personalities like Jesse Winker and Grimace than with a numbers-obsessed star like Juan Soto. Meanwhile, Sal expresses concern over the Yankees' bullpen and Volpe's injury, while the hosts disagree on whether the Yankees can still win their division. The conversation shifts to the Jets, with Wayne Chrebet discussing his 9/11 memories and the team's new culture under Aaron Glenn, before diving into NFL power rankings and venting from fans.

On today's show, BT and Sal got into a fiery debate over the Yankees' bullpen struggles, with Sal pushing back on BT's faith in reliever Fernando Cruz after his recent meltdown. The discussion then took a surprising turn when they reacted to the breaking news that Anthony Volpe has been playing with a shoulder injury and recently received a cortisone shot, a revelation that may explain his defensive struggles. Wrapping up the show, they shared their "Call of the Day" clip featuring an interview with former Jets wide receiver Wayne Chrebet.

BT and Sal reacted to the news that Anthony Volpe received a cortisone shot for a lingering shoulder injury, a bombshell revelation that may explain his season-long struggles. Sal noted that Volpe's offensive numbers have dropped significantly since he originally hurt his non-throwing shoulder in May, but stopped short of calling it a full excuse for his poor performance. He questioned why the Yankees and Aaron Boone have consistently downplayed the injury, and he and BT debated whether it's a legitimate reason for Volpe's slump or just another convenient excuse for the team's struggles.
