Duke Coughlin, Jordan Lazowski, and Nik Gaur come to you after the White Sox finish their 16-game stretch of consecutive games at 9-7. They find themselves 2.5 games up on the Guardians in the AL Central as they fly to take on the Twins. The crew discusses the vibes following this recent gauntlet of games, whether or not they'd make any adjustments to the batting order with Tristan Peters' hot stretch, and why Cleveland has always been the team that would hang around in the division. Plus, with pitching struggling as much as it has recently, what are the team's options to shake things up down the stretch? Could the team bring Drew Thorpe into the mix as well?

Ken and Anthony break down the Guardians' improbable comeback win, rallying from an early 3-0 deficit to sweep their road trip and extend their winning streak to seven straight. They dig into Joey Cantillo's bizarre outing (seven walks, still a quality start), Steven Kwan's red-hot second half, and Jose Ramirez heating up at the perfect time as Cleveland closes the gap on the White Sox in the AL Central. The conversation then shifts to a heated debate over the Browns' backup quarterback fan controversy, with the guys sparring over bot accounts, fan sentiment, and whether the QB competition was ever really close.

Ken and Anthony recap the Guardians tying their season-long win streak at seven after sweeping the Angels, with Steven Kwan's remarkable turnaround since the All-Star break taking center stage. They marvel at his climb from under .200 to .270 with a red-hot road trip, question whether Cleveland will actually pay to keep him, and take some shots at the Angels' organization along the way. The show wraps with a look at Ohio State's controversial new $150K premium suites blocking student sightlines and the NFL officially scrapping the Pro Bowl.

A year ago, Cleveland caught fire en route to a historic comeback in the AL Central race. The Guardians are making a late-season surge again this season -- they've won 7 straight -- and this time they don't have nearly as much ground to make up. Learn more about your ad choices.

The San Diego Padres have been a franchise since 1969, and while they've won two National League pennants, the ever-elusive World Series championship still eludes them. However, on Monday, there was a renewed sense of optimism and commitment to the team when the baseball world was introduced to the team's new owners, who hope to finally end the club's 57-year drought. On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman recap all the highlights from the introductory press conference of new Padres owners José E. Feliciano and Kwanza Jones, including their backgrounds, why this should be viewed as a separate investment beyond their other business dealings and why this is a different type of ownership group than we're used to seeing. They also talk about the Padres' game Tuesday night against the Pittsburgh Pirates, which saw Mason Miller finally give up a home run and Paul Skenes show signs of life in their victory. Later in the show, Jake and Jordan take a look at the Triple Crown case that Houston Astros slugger Yordan Alvarez is making, what might be the one category in which he could lose a step and which stat they would sub out to make the achievement more modern. The guys also highlight the Cleveland Guardians looking to pull away in the AL Wild Card race, highlight Boston Red Sox starter Payton Tolle's success on the field and give props to Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh for finally getting hot after a sluggish season. 1:28 - The Opener: Padres' new owners say hello 25:36 - We Need To Talk About: Alvarez and the Triple Crown 46:16 - Around The League: Paul Skenes looks better 51:16 - Payton Tolle continues to impress 55:18 - Cal Raleigh is finally hot 57:41 - Guardians are in Wild Card position Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

Joe Thomas joins the program to critique Deshaun Watson's response to fans and analyze Todd Monken's choice to start him over Shedeur Sanders. They evaluate rookie Spencer Fano's development and the offensive line's performance in joint practices. The discussion concludes with a look at the Guardians' season using college football analogies. 02:38 - Joe Thomas on Watson 05:32 - Monken's Quarterback Decision 12:43 - Spencer Fano Evaluation 18:01 - Hall of Fame Jerky 22:42 - Watson Versus Shedeur Sanders 35:08 - Guardians and College Analogies

Ken argues that everyone actually inside the building during camp—coaches, staff, and even opposing teams—consistently rated Deshaun Watson ahead of Shedeur Sanders, and that diehard Sanders fans are simply refusing to accept a reality that doesn't match their expectations. He floats the idea that Todd Monken benching Sanders for a few weeks could actually help him develop behind an inexperienced offensive line, but admits fans will never give Monken credit for that reasoning if it doesn't pan out immediately. Ken also updates his early 2027 quarterback draft watch list, swapping in Darian Mensah, before pivoting to a preview of his take on this year's Guardians team on its own merits.

Ken tries to justify why he's rooting for the Guardians "in a vacuum" this year, separate from the frustration surrounding the Browns and Cavs, and workshops a series of college football comparisons—first Purdue, then Minnesota, then Arkansas—to capture a scrappy, low-budget team overperforming against big spenders like the Dodgers. Lima and the rest of the room shoot down every comparison as a stretch, with Ken eventually conceding he's just trying to find a way to be excited about a low-payroll team making the playoffs without sounding like he's making excuses for ownership. The segment closes with a quick preview of Sunday's Browns game and reminders about the AFC North catch-up and Ralphy Velasquez chatter from earlier in the show.

Callers weigh in on the Browns' quarterback situation, with one predicting Todd Monken won't last long in Cleveland and another arguing the team created its own controversy by marketing Shedeur Sanders as the face of the franchise while starting Watson. Ken pushes back on the idea that Watson was signed purely for star power, though he admits the front office will never openly admit that. The conversation then turns to whether the Guardians would be "unserious" not to call up hot prospect Ralphy Velasquez given their six-game win streak, weighing the risk to his development against the upside of adding a spark for the playoff push.

Ken and Lima bring in producer John to recap the Guardians' wild comeback win, highlighting Jose Ramirez's three doubles and five RBI, Steven Kwan's 5-for-5 night, and Angel Martinez robbing Mike Trout of a go-ahead homer, then dig into whether Ralphy Velasquez's hot streak in the minors makes him worth calling up despite lockout-related roster risks. They also break down the fan and industry reaction to Akron letting a season-ticket-holding alum call plays in an upcoming game, debating whether the stunt could catch on with bigger programs looking to cash in on similar buzz.

Cleveland rallies from down 5-0 with a 10-inning, no-home-run comeback behind Jose Ramirez's five RBIs and a highlight-reel catch from Angel Martinez, pushing their playoff odds to 56%. That win sets off a debate about whether just reaching the postseason still means anything for a team that's made it eight of the last 11 years, with one host comparing the Guardians' underdog run to a scrappy college football program getting by on heart instead of money. The conversation gets heated over how much slack a low-payroll team deserves versus bigger-market rivals like the Blue Jays and Red Sox, and whether anything short of an ALDS win will actually feel like a real accomplishment this October.

Nick and Jonathan react to Dane Brugler's college football quarterback rankings. Then, they're joined by Ashley Bastock of Cleveland.com, and they debate if the Guardians should call up Ralphy Velazquez.

Nick and Jonathan react to their conversation with Ashley Bastock and talk about if the Guardians are the ones in the wrong by not yet calling up Ralphy Velazquez.

Ken and Anthony close out the show fielding a stream of angry caller voicemails and phone calls venting about Deshaun Watson, including one loyal fan who vows to drive to Tampa just to boo him in person during Week 2. Ken admits for the first time in fifteen years he understands why some fans might be quietly rooting against the team, framing it as fans wanting the organization to finally learn its lesson. The show wraps with a nod to the Guardians, who remain in the playoff hunt as their opponent's season came to an end.

The Guardians ride their longest winning streak since May back to a .500 record and into possession of the final American League wild card spot, with Jo Adell and Austin Hedges both delivering big nights against the Angels. Ken and Anthony debate whether Hedges is having a career year fluke on par with Brady Anderson's famous power surge, and dig into the service time calculus holding back red hot prospect Rafael Velasquez, who has torched Triple-A pitching lately. The show closes out with a Lane Kiffin gag involving Todd Monken and a mysterious phone call about Dae'Quan Wright.

Episode 460: Welcome back from a weekend of baseball! Jared, Tyler, Dallas, and Jay Hay talk about every single weekend series that happened, catching you up on the latest you need to know around the league. After talking about Dallas's commute to work and concerts, the guys get into the mess the Houston Astros are becoming. Owner Jim Crane has fired GM Dana Brown, and Manager Joe Espada is not expected to return next season. Are these sweeping changes actually going to be substantive, or are they just hiding who the true puppet masters are in H-Town? We turn from manager firings to the news that former All-Star slugger Giancarlo Stanton is done for the season, with more injuries plaguing the aging superstar. The crew speculates whether this is indeed the end of Stanton's MLB career, as well as talking about Shohei Ohtani returning to the mound soon. 00:00:00 - Who Greets Dallas at the Gates of Fire 00:04:26 - Concerts & Scooters 00:12:01 - The Drive-Thru Coming Soon? 00:15:38 - Weekend Series Recaps | Phillies vs. Cardinals 00:20:59 - Dodgers vs. Pirates 00:24:04 - Red Sox vs. Giants 00:26:43 - Yankees vs. Blue Jays 00:27:39 - Brewers vs. Braves 00:29:09 - Rangers vs. Angels 00:30:47 - Padres vs. Twins 00:32:44 - Cubs vs. Mariners 00:34:40 - Royals vs. Tigers 00:38:46 - Rays vs. Orioles 00:41:18 - Marlins vs. Nationals 00:42:37 - Guardians vs. Rockies 00:44:28 - Diamondbacks vs. Reds 00:47:59 - Astros vs. A's 00:55:47 - Astros Starting to Clean House 01:06:39 - Managers on the Chopping Block According to Kalshi Users 01:12:02 - Giancarlo Stanton Out for the Season 01:22:28 - Shohei Ohtani Returning to Pitch Soon 01:25:48 - All-Time Draft Poll Happening Right Now | JTN Tuesday! 01:32:52 - Award-Winning Nugs 01:37:14 - Final Thoughts | Book Club This Week!

Ken Carman and Anthony Lima dissect a disastrous Browns preseason performance where fans booed Deshaun Watson, leading to a defensive post-game press conference. They compare Watson's struggles and massive contract to the rising potential of Shedeur Sanders and the legacy of the recently retired Nick Chubb, while also discussing Guardians baseball and a humorous mistaken identity story involving Nick Wilson. 01:50 - Browns QB Competition 07:45 - Watson's Physical Limitations 14:35 - Nick Chubb Retirement 22:10 - Todd Monken Evaluation 28:50 - Salary Cap Penalties 36:10 - Emergency Management Meetings 45:40 - Monken's Presser Review 53:45 - Cleveland Legends Legacy 01:01:00 - Accountability And Faith 01:07:30 - Comparing Chubb And Watson 01:16:00 - Lima Likes Guardians Baseball 01:22:40 - Da'Quan Wright LSU Move 01:30:30 - Media Feuds Discussion 01:38:30 - Interview With Daryl Ruiter 01:47:15 - Crisis Management Failures 01:55:40 - Fan Reputation Debate 02:03:00 - Professional Criticism Discussion 02:13:30 - Roster Cuts Penalty 02:22:35 - William Hung Watson Cameo

Lima runs through his weekend likes, from the Guardians ripping off four straight wins to Jo Adell's historic RBI pace and Rafael Ramirez's power surge in the minors, before Carman and Lima circle back to Shedeur Sanders' sharp preseason outing against the Bears. They also debate whether third-round pick Austin Barber has already outplayed his draft slot and get sidetracked by the odd case of a Browns practice-squad player heading straight back to LSU on a booster deal.

Ken Carman and Anthony Lima dissect the tension following the Browns' preseason loss to the Buffalo Bills, highlighting Todd Monken's comments on the quarterback battle. They explore the fan base's growing frustration with Deshaun Watson's behavior and performance, alongside a breakdown of Shedeur Sanders' preseason showing.

In this episode, I share a channeled message from the Guardians of the Akashic Records about navigating change and becoming the change we seek. I explore how small shifts in the way we think, feel, and show up for ourselves can create profound changes in our lives. I also dive into the subconscious illusions and stories that keep us stuck, and how becoming willing to see the truth can lead to powerful breakthroughs.We explore radical responsibility, choosing ourselves, and stepping back into the driver's seat of our lives. If you're moving through change or feeling called to create something new, this episode invites you to ask: What change are you seeking, and are you willing to be the change?Love and light, Amy RobesonP.S.

In the "About Last Night" roundup, Ken and Anthony bring in producer John to celebrate the Guardians clawing back within a game of the Wild Card behind a dominant Gavin Williams start, then react with disbelief to the report that Browns tight end Dae'Quan Wright is heading back to the transfer portal thanks to a court ruling on NCAA eligibility. They close by dissecting Joe Burrow's pointed "this is the year" comments about the Bengals, with Ken arguing Cincinnati has actually held up its end of the bargain and it's on Burrow to stay healthy and deliver.

Nick and Jonathan tease a story about Jared Verse and some quarterback comments before diving into their thoughts on Parker Messick and how big of a surprise he's been for the Guardians' rotation this season.

Nick and Jonathan are joined by former Browns offensive lineman Jason Pinkston. Also, they talk about Cleveland's rebuilt offensive line, and they get into Parker Messick's breakout season with the Guardians.

Ken Carman and Anthony Lima dig into the Guardians' 1-0 loss to the Giants, their 12th shutout of the season and worst offense in baseball, and question whether Stephen Vogt's low-key press conferences are fueling fan frustration. They trace the team's offensive freefall back to Chase De La Cruz's comments about young hitters pressing at the plate, wondering if last year's postseason run is the only thing keeping this season's hopes alive. The guys also touch on David Blitzer's incoming ownership, injuries to Joe Adell and Chase De La Cruz, and the kickoff of high school football season in Northeast Ohio.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Thursday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler open the Thursday, August 20, 2026 edition of Cash That Ticket on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed by looking back at a one and one showing from the previous best bets episode, then work through a full night of MLB action before closing out their season long NFL win total series with the Los Angeles Rams. The headline matchup is Yankees at Orioles in Baltimore, where Gerrit Cole opposes Kyle Bradish with Baltimore sitting as a home underdog near plus 111 and the total at seven and a half. Dave, at 2:36, explains why he nearly stuck with the Orioles again after their bullpen coughed up a competitive game the night before, praising Bradish for three straight starts with two or fewer earned runs allowed. Munaf, at 4:39, backs the pitching duel theory with hard numbers, noting Cole has gone to the under in all eight of his road starts this season and that the Yankees are 5-2 to the under in the first five innings on the road, leading both hosts to the first five under at four and a half. The conversation then shifts to Nationals at Rangers in Arlington, Andrew Alvarez against Jacob deGrom, where Dave, at 6:08, points out how rarely Washington has faced deGrom this year despite his strong overall track record, while Munaf, at 8:28, lays out deGrom's split of a 2.93 road ERA against a bloated 5.01 mark at home. With Washington's bullpen a season long weakness, both hosts land on the first five under, which Dave later calls his best bet of the day. The night's finale is Angels at Astros in Houston, Grayson Rodriguez against Peter Lambert, with Houston a heavy home favorite and the total at eight and a half. Dave, at 10:11, walks through Lambert's turnaround from early season struggles to five straight starts allowing exactly two earned runs, while Munaf, at 12:27, adds that Rodriguez has been especially rough pitching in Anaheim, pushing both hosts toward the Astros run line in the first five innings. Dave also runs through several early getaway day games at 14:30, leaning toward the Royals over the Athletics, staying cautious on Guardians at Giants despite liking Cleveland starter Gavin Williams, and singling out Mariners at Brewers as his favorite look behind Brewers starter Robert Gasser. Munaf, at 16:20, flags a surprising trend for Mariners starter George Kirby, who has struggled on the road all season even as Seattle keeps winning those first five innings anyway. The back half of the show turns to the Los Angeles Rams, who open the 2026 season with an 11.5 win total after finishing 12-5 a year ago. The Rams enter this season after acquiring reigning Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett from the Cleveland Browns and adding cornerback Trent McDuffie, with persistent rumors surrounding a possible Aaron Donald return. Dave, at 18:45 and 19:29, breaks down a demanding schedule that opens with a trip to Australia against the 49ers, continues with a Monday night home opener against the Giants, and includes road trips to Denver and Philadelphia before Buffalo visits, ultimately landing on the over given the talent around Matthew Stafford. Munaf, at 21:17, goes a step further, projecting 13 wins and a division title behind the continued production of Davante Adams, Puka Nacua, and Kyren Williams on offense, paired with a defense that could feature both Myles Garrett and a returning Aaron Donald. The show wraps with the day's best bets, Dave riding the Nationals-Rangers first five under four and a half while Munaf backs the Yankees-Orioles first five under, both hosts tying the picks back to bullpen concerns and starting pitching form across the card. Before signing off, the two point listeners toward a busy day of action that includes golf playoff coverage, a full baseball schedule, and NFL preseason football in the evening, with the next episode of Cash That Ticket set for Friday.

They flag Chase DeLauter's absence as the real concern, arguing the Guardians can't realistically make the playoffs without him in the lineup, before shifting into Browns joint practice fights with the Bills and a wild Julio Rodriguez blunder that helped the Brewers blow out the Mariners.

The Guardians rolled to an 8-1 win to keep their playoff hopes breathing as the team clings to life in the wild card race.
