Tarik Skubal has 54 career wins in Major League Baseball, but on Thursday he may have earned his most lucrative victory yet—against his current club. The two-time Cy Young Award winner won his arbitration hearing against the Detroit Tigers, and the ramifications could be larger than many anticipate.On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss the historic win for Skubal, his agent Scott Boras, and the entire Players Association. Skubal will make a record $32 million after winning his arbitration hearing. This decision sets a precedent for future cases and could help determine Skubal's long-term future in Detroit. With the Tigers' acquisition of Framber Valdez, could the team be more willing to move on from their ace at some point this season?Later, Jake and Jordan break down some of the most intriguing rosters from the World Baseball Classic after every team revealed its squad Thursday night, including which teams may have been impacted by insurance issues. They then make their picks for The Good, The Bad & The Uggla, including an update on the Emmanuel Clase gambling investigation and an incredibly unique giveaway from the Toronto Blue Jays this season.2:02 – The Opener: Skubal wins vs. Tigers11:03 – Scott Boras Scoreboard update20:21 – Tigers sign Framber Valdez31:15 – Around the League: WBC rosters53:02 – The Good, The Bad & The Uggla Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

Greg is back, the beers are flowing, and somehow this Super Bowl turned into the Missionary Monday of championship games. We debate whether anyone is actually excited, break down why buffalo chicken dip is doing the heavy lifting, and spiral into music takes that range from Kid Rock avoidance strategies to why Nate Dogg should've stayed a featured artist. We dig into Super Bowl prop bets (Charlie Puth anthem timing, Seahawks trauma odds, first celebrity fans shown), fire up a full Patriots Hall of Fame conspiracy, and react to the latest Epstein file dump producing some genuinely surprising names. Plus: an Olympics update from Lou Holtz in Italy, Team Puerto Rico threatening to bail on the World Baseball Classic, Tiger Woods' unbreakable streak, Bryson vs LIV's 72-hole problem, Paul George's PED loophole, Jarrell Miller losing his wig mid-fight, and Mookie forcing college football into the show one last time. It's long. It's dumb. It's exactly what it should be.

The San Francisco Giants signed Luis Arráez to a one-year deal, with the hope that the three-time batting champion will be able to help solidify their offense after their blockbuster deal that brought Rafael Devers to the Bay last season. However, after finishing at 81–81, are the Giants doing enough to try and compete for a title?On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman examine the questionable offseason that President of Baseball Operations Buster Posey has navigated for his Giants. While being in the same division as the Los Angeles Dodgers does present some difficulties, should the Giants be doing a bit more to show their commitment to winning? Could they still find a way to improve their rotation before the start of the season?Later, Jordan and Jake talk about the trade that saw the St. Louis Cardinals trade Brendan Donovan in a three-team deal to the Seattle Mariners and why he is going to be a key player for them. They then discuss the Chicago White Sox's active weekend, the Sacramento A's signing Jacob Wilson to an extension, all before they get into the problem that insurance is causing with World Baseball Classic rosters.2:29 – The Opener: A look at the Giants29:58 – Around the League: Mariners trade for Donovan48:18 – Turbo Mode: Reds sign Eugenio Suárez58:37 – Tarik Skubal vs. Detroit Tigers1:01:44 – We Need to Talk About: WBC insurance Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

This is not the first time we've selected baseball boyfriends because of their moms, but this may be the first time we've concocted a plan to bring them beer in person. This week we talk HOU and NYM. For the Astros, Pottymouth picks the mom in the stands reminding him to run and Patti chooses the mom in the clubhouse. For the Mets its Pottymouth goes for the mom who just wants both boys to have a great time and Patti the one who could watch her kid every single day playing ball. Two fatal shootings by Feds in Minnesota push the sports and business communities to take a stand at the organizational level, the NBPA adds their collective voice, and our patron saint provides context. Serie del Caribe is just getting started and we are on Yadi watch for the LVBP. We try to suss out the insurance rules keeping certain MLB players out of the World Baseball Classic. In a Police Blotter/cross training/cross over, Patti commits $10 per goal scored by Britta Curl-Salemme to Baltimore Safe Haven so that she can still cheer for US Women's Olympic Hockey. Hilary and Laila deserve better than a transphobic teammate in this historic year. And we encourage the NHL to use some of its financial gains from the Heated Rivalry effect to make hockey a safer space for all.We say, “I thought pitchforks in this town were only brandished at Council meetings,” “How big can Ozark be, really?” and “It is, in fact, color coded.” 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.

Cinco de Luncho kicks off in full chaos as Shaun Morash takes over and rolls out his list of 2026 sports events he already knows he does not care about. From total Dodgers fatigue to World Baseball Classic apathy, Rangers post Olympic burnout, and a World Cup take that lights the room on fire, the list instantly turns into a loud, hilarious argument about what actually matters and what is just being jammed down everyone's throat.

The hour keeps rolling with callers weighing in on Mets clubhouse chemistry, Lindor and Soto leadership dynamics, Idiots With Idioms callbacks, Patriots fans defending their Super Bowl path, and a deeper conversation about Sam Darnold, Seattle's rise, and why so many preseason takes aged poorly. It is a classic Evan and Tiki final hour where baseball, basketball, football, lists, and nonsense all collide at once.
