With past legal trouble still in his rearview, is history repeating itself?If you want unfiltered breakdowns of the wildest sports news each week — this is where it gets real.

In Hour 1, Patrick and Joe wonder whether or not the Tampa Bay Rays will be able to get out of Wander Franco's huge contract, debate why hitters are getting hit more often, and more.

Since last week we've been to Pride night, and Pottymouth has checked out the Smokies new ballpark, and crosstrained with Bananaball. Patti opted out on Bananaball because there are two kinds of people in the world. Although Cosmic Baseball could be a thing… The All Star Game is loaded with former boyfriends and just a few new ones, and the Derby could be all our guys. Congrats to Justin Verlander on what must be a very beautiful new baby, and thanks for the timing which let Brett Wisely back up to the bigs. More fans behaving badly, this time to Ketel Marte, and good work to the hometown fans for much-needed support. Police Blotter and more crosstraining as we report on horrible men in two sports. Franco gets away with abhorrent deeds and Tucker denies it all. More World Baseball Classic participants are announced and we are eyeing a trip to Puerto Rico. And thank you, Trea Turner, for not ticking off the baseball gods.We say, “I went and did the Banana thing,” “A light beer but way more of it so the math should work,” and “Whiskey with the Canadians in the basement.” 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.

En el episodio de hoy de Baseball News hablamos de la condena de Wander Franco en República Dominicana y el gran impacto que esto tiene en el mundo del béisbol. Además, repasamos a los más votados para el Juego de Estrellas donde Aaron Judge y Shohei Ohtani siguen liderando. Los Astros completaron barrida sobre Phillies con Hunter Brown brillante, los Mets recuperan la cima al vencer a Bravos por blanqueo, Shota Imanaga regresó dominante para guiar a Cubs sobre Cardenales, Clayton Kershaw se acerca a los 3000 ponches con Dodgers, y los Azulejos blanquearon a Guardians en un juego donde Vladimir Guerrero Jr y José Ramírez salieron tras recibir pelotazos. ¡Todo esto y más en Baseball News!Conviértete en un seguidor de este podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/con-las-bases-llenas-podcast-de-beisbol--2742086/support.

Por aquí decimos que quien tiene las lágrimas hondas empieza a llorar temprano y Wander Franco lloró tan pronto escuchó la sentencia que lo declara culpable  de abuso contra una menor aunque la condena sea a prisión suspendida y al pago de una multa que resulta insignificante para sus ingresos.El tribunal de hecho lo considera víctima de extorsión por parte de la madre de la menor y el fallo evidencia las solicitudes económicas de la señora Vanessa Chevalier que no sólo fue condenada a 10 años de prisión sino al decomiso de los bienes e ingresos resultado de su delito en contra de su propia hija.Estos bienes incluyen un inmueble, un vehículo y 68 mil dólares que fueron decomisados previamente.A los ojos de la mayoría el fallo fue benigno con el pelotero de Tampa Bay que se ha visto involucrados en otros escándalos pero por su llanto hay que pensar que él sabe cosas que nosotros desconocemos.Hay que recordar la soberbia del pelotero que está suspendido desde 2023 tras conocerse del  caso que fue denunciado por la propia víctima. Un reporte de diario libre del 4 de enero del 2024 evidencia la plena conciencia del jugador sobre lo que estaba haciendo y la soberbia con que lo asumía.El diálogo con la menor no puede ser más explicito y así consta en el expediente: Mi niña, mi equipo si se da cuenta de esto me puede causar problemas, es una regla en todos los equipos no hablar con menores de edad y, sin embargo, me arriesgué y me encantó”, expresó Franco en una captura de una conversación por la plataforma Whatsapp con la adolescente.La reacción rápida tanto de su equipo como de MLB no es auspiciosa, el equipo dice que esperará la decisión de la liga y la liga que sigue investigando.Las lágrimas del jugador tan pronto se conoció el fallo evidencian su estado de ánimo. Es probable que sus representantes en el norte le hayan advertido sobre la culpabilidad. Por allá no están juzgando las penas sino las responsabilidades.

Wander Franco fue encontrado culpable en República Dominicana, pero su sentencia fue un chiste. Es el final de Wander en la MLB? Juam Soto con mes histórico en la MLB. Noche de lanzadores en la MLB. Nuestro amigo Edwin Rodriguez habla sobre su nuevo libro para bateadores.

Did you notice that as soon as your favorite team has a series in Tampa or Sacramento, there is a “news” story that sounds like Yelp reviews of the non-major-league facilities? It would have been a 10 if not for the batter's box. Swirling and unpredictable. You get it. Pottymouth swears Junior has a sixth tool but she never comes right out and says what it is. It might be a camp! Or bobbleheads! Her pitching flock has been reduced to Diamondbacks in the rough.  Patti is amused that there are stories predicting that 24 year old Cedanne may one day be the next 23 year old Pete. And is Adley hitting better because of losing the toe tap or because Patti benched him for a game? We ponder the motivation of old guys grinding it out in the minors. The police blotter checks in on the ongoing Wander Franco trial, and the terrible defacing of the Robinson and Miñoso mural in Miami. Geaux Tigers! The takeaway from Nationals Night Out is that if you are going to pitch in heels, for god's sake, PRACTICE in heels.We say, “13 is a lot. 14 is more,” “J. Geils,” and, “It rains on what's already wet.”: 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.
