Christian Polanco and Alexis Guerreros react to the USMNT's 3-2 defeat to Türkiye in their final World Cup group-stage match. With knockout-round qualification already secured, the guys debate whether fans should be concerned by the loss or simply chalk it up to squad rotation and experimentation. They break down the biggest moments from the match and explain why Sebastian Berhalter earned their Player of the Match honors despite the disappointing result. Then, The Cooligans are joined by USMNT midfielder Gianluca Busio to get a player's perspective on the team's mindset heading into the knockout rounds.

The guys discuss whether Carlo Ancelotti has Brazil heating up at exactly the right time and what Neymar's return could mean for the Seleção heading into the knockout rounds.

The latest round of voting for the 2026 MLB All-Star Game was recently released, and while Shohei Ohtani unsurprisingly leads all players in votes, there is someone on the American League side who is just 300,000 votes away from matching the Los Angeles Dodgers superstar.

On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss the sudden surge in support for the standout player from the Blue Jays' World Series run last season and why Ernie Clement is garnering so much fan support. They then take a look at another second baseman making waves: Jazz Chisholm Jr., who was caught playing the field with a lollipop in his mouth, drawing the ire of manager Aaron Boone.

Christian Polanco and Alexis Guerreros react to another historic milestone for Lionel Messi as he becomes the all-time leading scorer in World Cup history. The guys debate whether Messi still needs another World Cup title to put the GOAT debate to bed once and for all, and whether Kylian Mbappé—already with 16 World Cup goals at age 27—has a realistic chance of chasing down Messi's record before this tournament is over. Next, The Cooligans are joined by legendary former USMNT head coach Bruce Arena. Bruce discusses whether this current American side is the strongest in program history, explains how Mauricio Pochettino has changed the culture around soccer in the United States, and answers the biggest question facing the country right now: can the USMNT actually win the World Cup? One of the most successful coaches in American soccer history shares his perspective on the team's evolution and the expectations surrounding this generation. To wrap up the show, Christian and Alexis celebrate Erling Haaland's arrival on the World Cup stage and discuss whether the Norwegian superstar can carry his country on a deep run while challenging for the Golden Boot.

The 2024 MLB Draft class is already having a major impact on the 2026 baseball season. With seven of the first nine picks in the draft already debuting and contributing to their clubs' success, there's a real possibility that the Class of '24 could go down as one of the best ever. The question now is: If we re-drafted today, who would go No. 1? On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman examine the top 20 picks from the now-infamous 2024 draft and conduct a re-draft based on the recent performances of those players.

As we rapidly approach the halfway point of the 2026 baseball season, some interesting trends are starting to become more apparent across Major League Baseball. One of the more jarring statistics is the difference in success between teams in the American and National Leagues. While NL teams seem to be having more success, is there a bigger issue at play for teams in the AL? On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman try to make sense of why the vast majority of teams in the American League aren't having great seasons. While 10 teams in the NL have records above .500, only five teams in the AL are above that mark. Additionally, only the New York Yankees, Tampa Bay Rays and Cleveland Guardians have reached the 40-win mark. Could it be the amount teams are spending on payroll, or is competition within the AL divisions simply tighter? Later, Jake and Jordan discuss the latest developments in the MLB and MLBPA negotiations over a new CBA, which could feature radical changes to how teams draft eligible players and what those changes could mean for the college baseball landscape. The guys then get into the new format change for the 2026 Home Run Derby, which some fans might not be thrilled about, before making their picks for this week's edition of The Good, The Bad & The Uggla. 1:34 – The Opener: What's wrong with the AL? 23:17 – Around The League: Latest in CBA negotiations 53:40 – We Need To Talk About: HR Derby changes 57:16 – The Good 1:04:01 – The Bad 1:07:58 – The Uggla Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

When the San Francisco Giants ended the 2025 season, they found themselves at exactly .500 in the ultra-competitive NL West. After acquiring All-Star Rafael Devers during the season and making a few additions in the offseason, there was hope that the Giants would be pushing for a postseason spot in 2026. That plan, however, has not yet taken off, and things are reportedly set to change by the Bay. On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss reports that President of Baseball Operations Buster Posey is set to trade away key players before the August 3 trade deadline. The surprising move suggests that the Giants may not believe this is the year for them to compete and that a reset is necessary after falling to a disappointing 29-43 record to this point in the season. The question now is: Which players are going to be moved in potential trades? Later, Jake and Jordan dream up who they would like to see in the 2026 MLB Home Run Derby, set to take place in Philadelphia next month. While there are a few obvious choices—Kyle Schwarber and Ben Rice, most notably—the guys also hope that Mike Trout could have a special moment and compete in his first-ever Derby in front of a hometown crowd.

Christian Polanco and Alexis Guerreros react to one of the biggest shocks of the World Cup so far as Cape Verde earn a stunning draw against Spain. Are Spain already in trouble, or is this just an early bump in the road? The guys also discuss whether Cape Verde can ride the momentum all the way to the knockout rounds before turning their attention to Lionel Messi. With what is likely his final World Cup underway, can Messi put the GOAT debate to rest forever by winning a second World Cup, or do Pelé and Maradona still have a claim to soccer immortality? Next, The Cooligans break down Tunisia's decision to appoint World Cup specialist Hervé Renard as head coach for the remainder of the tournament. Can Renard work his magic once again and guide Tunisia to an unlikely place in the knockout stages? Christian and Alexis also debate Cristiano Ronaldo's role with Portugal and ask whether the legendary forward is still one of the team's biggest weapons—or whether his presence has become more of a problem than a solution. To wrap up the show, the guys are joined by England presenter Michael Timbs to preview the Three Lions' World Cup campaign. Which players will be key to England's success?

When the New York Knicks snapped their 53-year championship drought this past weekend, it showed how long the fan base had been suffering before finally being able to celebrate a title. However, there are quite a few teams in baseball that can commiserate with what Knicks fans have been going through and hope to one day bring a championship back home. On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman take a look at the current title-less droughts in MLB, led by the Cleveland Guardians, who haven't won since 1948, and the Milwaukee Brewers and San Diego Padres, neither of whom has yet to win a World Series since their debuts in 1969. Along with the Seattle Mariners, Pittsburgh Pirates, New York Mets and others, which team will be next to break its drought? Later, Jake and Jordan discuss two standout pitching performances from this weekend: Jacob Misiorowski, who threw a Maddux for the Brewers, and Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who flirted with perfection en route to a Los Angeles Dodgers victory. They then recap Tarik Skubal's return to the mound, the Tartan Army taking over Fenway Park during the Boston Red Sox–Texas Rangers game and offer thoughts on players giving mixed messages regarding the annual San Francisco Giants Pride Night.   1:59 – The Opener: Next title drought to end 37:11 – Around The League: The Miz throws a Maddux 47:00 – Yamamoto flirts with perfection 56:22 – Skubal returns to the Tigers 1:04:52 – Turbo Mode: Tartan Army invades 1:10:01 – Giants Pride Night kerfuffle 1:14:57 – Recap of weekend action Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

Christian Polanco and Alexis Guerreros break down their biggest takeaways from an action-packed World Cup weekend, presented by Smirnoff Ice. Alexis explains why Mauricio Pochettino proved friendlies are meant for experimentation, why Scotland deserves to be taken seriously beyond their traveling support, and why Gio Reyna may have played his way into a major club transfer after the tournament. Christian highlights the atmosphere created by Zohran ticket winners at Brazil vs. Morocco, the technology that correctly overturned an offside call for Sweden, and why Tim Ream continues to prove he belongs in the USMNT lineup—and perhaps even deserves the captain's armband. Next, the guys react to Tunisia's shocking decision to fire their head coach after a crushing 5-1 defeat to Sweden. Is Sweden's dominant start a sign that they're a genuine contender in this tournament? Christian and Alexis discuss what Tunisia's decision says about the pressure facing managers at the World Cup and whether Sweden may be flying under the radar. To wrap up the show, The Cooligans turn their attention to Norway and debate whether Erling Haaland can be the player who finally delivers World Cup success for his country. The guys also preview the upcoming slate of matches, including Belgium vs. Egypt, Saudi Arabia vs. Uruguay and Iran vs. New Zealand, before reacting to one of the most wholesome stories of the tournament: Dutch and Japanese supporters coming together to create unforgettable World Cup scenes.   Timestamps: (2:00) — World Cup opening weekend takeaways (15:15) - Tunisia sack head coach after 5-1 loss (21:45) - Erling Haaland the man to bring World Cup glory to Norway?

Christian Polanco and Alexis Guerreros kick off the show by reacting to Australia's shocking victory over Türkiye. With the Socceroos continuing to exceed expectations on the world's biggest stage, the guys debate whether Australia could be a serious threat to the USMNT and whether they're becoming one of the tournament's most dangerous dark horses. Next, The Cooligans turn their attention to Brazil after a disappointing performance against Morocco. Christian and Alexis break down what went wrong, whether Brazil's issues are temporary or more serious, and if one of the pre-tournament favorites might be headed for an earlier exit than anyone expected. Is Brazil truly a World Cup contender, or are they living off reputation? To wrap up the show, the guys discuss Japan's gutsy draw against the Netherlands and what it says about their ability to compete with the world's elite teams.

The 2026 baseball season hasn't really gone according to plan for the Boston Red Sox so far. With high expectations that their young core group of players would take the next step and lead the team to a better season than 2025, that has not been the case. Even after firing manager Alex Cora, the team hasn't seen much of a boost, with many wondering if it's getting late early for the Red Sox. On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman talk about the complete disappointment coming out of Boston so far and who is to blame for the mess the Red Sox currently find themselves in. They then get into whether there is a chance the team could become major players at the trade deadline, but as unexpected sellers, and why there is such a disconnect in messaging between the front office and the fans. Later, Jake and Jordan discuss the Chicago White Sox surprisingly finding themselves in first place in the AL Central and how sustainable the winning — and the good vibes they're bringing to Chicago fans — actually is. The guys then get into Tarik Skubal's scheduled return to the Detroit Tigers this weekend, Shohei Ohtani being removed from a game due to injury and preview the College World Series.
