Inside The Locker Room with Miguel Rojas. A full hour of basetball chatter with the hero of Game 7 of the World Series.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

KFI’s Michael Monks joins the show with the latest on protests across Downtown L.A., including the expected “ICE Out” nighttime demonstrations, plus continued protest activity in Santa Ana and what authorities are preparing for this evening. Meeting Dodgers World Series hero Miguel “Miggy” Rojas is compared to meeting Kirk Gibson in ’88 just weeks after that legendary World Series — the emotion, the moment, and why some Dodger memories never fade. A look back at one of the moments every Dodger fan remembers — that Miggy home run — and why it still resonates. Plus, the Olympics opening on 2/6, as protests begin to escalate, with reports of food and objects being thrown and tensions rising. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A rare three-segment episode this week. First, in what is very much NOT a story, the host quotes Casey Stengel in a totally context-free way. Then a pitcher has to work hard to keep a team he doesn't like IN the World Series or risk professional extinction. Finally, a personal reflection on the way we live now, based very much on a real-life example of lightning striking twice in a truly malicious way. The Infinite Inning is a journey to the past to understand the present using baseball as our time machine. America's brighter mirror, baseball reflects, anticipates, and even mocks the stories we tell ourselves about our world today. Baseball Prospectus's Steven Goldman shares his obsessions: history from inside and outside of the game, politics, stats, and Casey Stengel quotations. Along the way, we'll try to solve the puzzle that is the Infinite Inning: How do you find the joy in life when you can't get anybody out?

Tommy talks about his offseason, the birth of his daughter, and Game 7 of the 2025 World Series.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dust off your spurs and grab your table-leg bats! In this episode, Jeff and Mark bridge the gap between the Old West and the diamond. We discuss why Wyatt Earp is buried in a San Francisco suburb and hunt for the best "Western" names in baseball history—from Hoot Gibson to the legendary Tony Tombstone. Then, we dig into the career of the original Billy Hamilton. Long before Rickey Henderson or Lou Brock, there was a 5'6" powerhouse from a Massachusetts cotton mill who invented the headfirst slide and averaged over a run per game. We settle the score on his "lost" stolen base records and his fuming retirement letters to the Sporting News. Finally, we travel back to the 1920s-40s for a special "Conlon Collection" version of Wax Pack Heroes, featuring a third baseman who could hold seven baseballs in one hand and a World Series riot involving flying bananas.

   What if I told you there's a conservative broadcaster that owns his own media company and is seen as a controversial outsider by members of old school, liberal media and politicians?  What if he was the kind of plain spoken truth teller unafraid of what anyone thinks?     If we aren't talking about your humble host, you'd probably think this would be a really great person to have on KKHI.    Meet Scott Faughn, publisher of www.themissouritimes.com.  He just purchased three more newspapers in Missouri and has his finger on the pulse of everything going on in the Show-Me state.  He knows the governor well.  And yes, he's a Cardinals fan.  You may even hear us spar over the 1985 World Series a smidge.  But we also talk about no income tax, the state of life in KC vs. St. Louis and Trump's tariffs upsetting Missouri farmers.   You're going to enjoy this one

Today's word of the day is ‘exposure' as in the Yankees as in Brian Cashman as in Aaron Boone as in Cody Bellinger.

Will this be the year the Yankees win a World Series again? (16:33) Bill Belichick has gotten everyone to come out and defend him. Tom Brady. Robert Kraft. And now the Pro Football Hall of Fame is releasing statements! (29:45) The Browns always seem to do something wrong. Todd Monken is the new head coach. Former Browns OC is back in the mix. And Jim Schwartz is pissed. (35:42) Review: It Was Just An Accident. (39:30) NPPOD. We have to talk about Giannis again. What is going on with the Bucks? (44:30) Is LIV Golf done?

Evan and Tiki react to Brian Cashman's media session and the line that set Yankee fans off: the idea the Yankees are not “running it back.” Is he right, just terrible at saying it, or both? The guys debate whether last year's trade deadline basically was the Yankees' offseason, what's still missing without a true Soto replacement, and how the team should handle Anthony Volpe's rehab and role when he returns. Then the calls roll in, from prospect trade debates and “go get a bat” arguments, to a Mets tangent on Eugenio Suárez vs. giving Mark Vientos one last runway. Hour wraps with Knicks trade chatter and Mikal Bridges' brutally honest “entitlement” quote as Giannis rumors hang in the background. Time Codes 00:00 — Cashman meets the media, Yankees fans immediately annoyed 01:18 — “Just say it's similar” vs Cashman over-explaining why they're different 02:23 — The blunt truth: “They added ONE player” and it feels like the same roster 04:41 — Bigger issue: 15 years, one World Series run, and no Soto replacement 05:15 — Tiki's counter: Cashman is right, just said it in the worst way 05:55 — The trade deadline as the real “offseason” and why that's actually unique 07:03 — AL East framing: Blue Jays, Red Sox, and why “track record” matters 10:40 — “Leave no doubt” offseason vs Yankees budgeting, Dodgers standards, and choices 16:24 — Volpe update: “110%” and “deploy properly” sounds like a role change 18:49 — Call: Yankee fan talks trades, Dominguez and Spencer Jones, and patience 24:30 — Call: Mets tangent, Kyle Tucker opt-out mechanics and the Suárez debate 26:12 — Mark Vientos “final stand” season and why a one-year vet could block him 28:05 — Call: Paul Skenes trade fantasy, prospect “forbidden fruit,” and control years 31:17 — The “pied-à-terre” detour and why it turns into a comedy bit 35:42 — Call: Yankees flexibility, then Knicks trade anxiety after a win 40:14 — Mikal Bridges' “entitlement” quote, being coachable, and trade-rumor pressure 43:16 — Giannis reality check: if it happens, Bridges is likely in the deal

Highlights: The Browns have hired experienced offensive coach Todd Monken as their 19th full-time head coach. Initial fan reaction to the hire was mixed, but winning will ultimately determine his approval. Inside Monken's difficult 2019 season in Cleveland Monken is known for a blunt, no-nonsense coaching philosophy focused on accountability and winning. The Browns prioritized fixing their "broken" and lowest-scoring offense by hiring Monken over defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz. As a play-calling specialist rather than a "CEO" type, Monken's success will heavily depend on hiring a strong, autonomous defensive coordinator. Why it's unlikely that defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz will return after being passed over for the head coaching position. Why Monken's immediate priorities should be to establish an offensive vision and build trust with defensive players who supported Schwartz. The Cavs' recent success is credited to a dramatic improvement in their defensive performance. A debate has emerged over Darius Garland's future role, with Terry suggesting he could lead the second unit upon his return from injury. The Guardians signed star third baseman Jose Ramirez to a significant four-year, $107 million contract extension. Ramirez's deal, which includes deferred money and a hometown discount, is highlighted as a rare act of player loyalty in modern sports. Remembering the late Gary Briggs, a witty and beloved former trainer for the Cavaliers. A listener recalls the legendary 1968 World Series story of the Detroit Tigers moving Gold Glove outfielder Mickey Stanley to shortstop. Learn more about your ad choices.

A lot can happen in a week! After finalizing a contract with Bo Bichette, trading for Luis Robert Jr., and signing free agent RP Luis Garcia, David Stearns completed a trade with his old team, acquiring Brewers ace Freddy Peralta and Tobias Myers for prospects Brandon Sproat and Jett Williams. With the heavy lifting seemingly over this offseason, the Mets have remade their team into a World Series contender, after a disappointing 2025 season. With the vision finally in clear view, we can discuss if the Mets are truly better than they were last season, and what, if anything, they have left to do before opening day.

Evan makes one thing clear right away: he does not hate the move, but he is not celebrating either. The Mets are undeniably better after adding Freddy Peralta, and the rotation finally looks respectable. The problem is the price. Two top-100 prospects for a pitcher Evan believes is a one-year rental based on the track record of David Stearns. That sparks a deeper conversation about what the Mets are actually building under Stearns and Steve Cohen. Is this a smart year-to-year strategy, or a risky way to live as a fan? Evan lays out why a rental only works if it leads to a World Series run, compares the move to past Mets rentals, and asks fans the real question: what result makes this trade worth it? Plus, a hilarious and painfully real dad moment from Madison Square Garden, where Evan has to explain to his kids both Nets misery and why Jet Williams is suddenly no longer a Mets prospect.

Evan isn't screaming, he's just being honest: he did not celebrate the Freddy Peralta trade. Yes, the Mets are better right now and the rotation finally looks legit, but Evan's main fear is simple: this feels like a one-year rental, and they paid two top-100 prospects (Jett Williams and Brandon Sproat) to do it. That sparks the real debate for Mets fans: what result makes a rental worth it, World Series or bust? Plus, Mets fans flood the phones to defend the move, rip the move, and argue whether Stearns and Cohen are building a sustainable plan or living year to year. And Evan delivers a classic story from MSG, including the rough night as a Nets dad and the even tougher conversation explaining to his son why “Jet” is suddenly no longer a Mets prospect.

We break down the Knicks' historic 54-point demolition of the Nets and look ahead to Philly while exploring why an NBA Finals contender is losing to the Mavs at home. Jerry's back with Bo Bichette's World Series ambitions, David Stearns' aggressive winning strategy, and that infamous Bills press conference. Plus, we investigate a wild theory about an electrical substation affecting the 49ers' health, the latest on the impending snowstorm, and a caller's question about the disappearance of sperm bank commercials.

When the New York Mets signed Bo Bichette and traded for Luis Robert Jr., many wondered if President of Baseball Ops David Stearns was finished making major moves this offseason. On Wednesday night though, Stearns had one more big surprise up his sleeve when he acquired someone from his past days in Milwaukee.On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss the big trade that saw the Mets deal for Milwaukee Brewers ace Freddy Peralta and Tobias Myers in exchange for a package of top prospects Brandon Sproat and Jett Williams. With Peralta now headlining the Mets' starting rotation, does this addition make them a World Series contender again? Also, how will the new additions to the Brew Crew's prospect pipeline help them in the immediate future?Later, Jordan and Jake talk about the New York Yankees and Cody Bellinger reuniting after his impressive 2025 season in pinstripes on a five-year, $162.5 million contract. The move further solidifies the Yankees' belief in their offense, essentially running it back from last season—but could Brian Cashman and company have one more front-page deal before Spring Training kicks off? The guys then close the show by making their picks for this week's edition of The Good, The Bad & The Uggla.2:03 – The Opener: Freddy Peralta to the Mets29:43 – Jordan's Prospect Hut: The Brewers' return38:28 – Yankees re-sign Cody Bellinger52:00 – Scott Boras Scoreboard update54:37 – The Good1:01:13 – The Bad1:06:44 – The Uggla Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

Reuben Frank joined the 94 WIP Morning Team to discuss the Eagles season and their current offensive coordinator search. He says that Kevin Patullo was the root of the Eagles offensive struggles this season and that he thinks they are taking a liking to Charlie Weis Jr. for their OC candidacy. On the Phillies, James Seltzer says that they are in World Series or bust mode, and that when you go backwards in an offseason it is considered a failure. Ben Davis says this MLB situation is the messiest since the 1994 lockout.

Cody and Vince go LIVE on Talkin' Blue to break down the Dodgers' blockbuster signing of Kyle Tucker and what it means for the franchise moving forward. The Dodgers officially sign Tucker to a 4-year, $240 million deal, including a $65 million signing bonus, $30 million deferred, and a record-setting CBT AAV of $57.1 million.

We also discuss comments from Dodgers GM Brandon Gomes, who said, “There was really nobody that moved our World Series odds for 2026 more than Kyle Tucker.” Is this good for baseball, and what does it say about where the Dodgers are headed? On the agenda: • Full breakdown of Kyle Tucker's contract structure • Short-term vs long-term impact on the Dodgers • Is this deal good for baseball? Freddy Peralta Trade Rumors The Dodgers remain involved in Freddy Peralta trade discussions, according to Jon Heyman and Ken Rosenthal, with Héctor Gómez reporting that LA is aggressively engaged. • Brewers seeking MLB-ready talent, preferably pitching with team control • Peralta owed $8M in 2026 before free agency • Andrew Friedman says the Dodgers are not in on starting pitching.
