Baseball is Dead (MLB Podcast)

Episode 432: Baseball never rests, and neither do we. Baseball is Dead is back with a full recap of all the weekend series!

Tarik Skubal made his long-awaited return to an MLB mound. The guys break down his first start back and discuss what the future holds for the lefty.

Jacob Misiorowski delivered a masterpiece that left the entire league in awe. He threw a 9-inning, 15-strikeout shutout with a perfect 100 Game Score, putting himself firmly in the driver’s seat for the National League Cy Young. Jay Hay puts the historic start in proper perspective and gives it the praise it deserves.

Jared and Tyler ask Dallas about his final days in Las Vegas with the A’s, plus the record-breaking day the Colorado Rockies had in Sin City. Dallas reacts live to the first round of All-Star Game voting results — and he is not happy with what he sees.

Lastly, the guys host another potential 1-1 pick in this year’s MLB Draft. UCLA star Roch Cholowsky joins the show to talk about the draft season!

Episode 429: A three-headed monster of Jared, Jay Hay, and Tyler recaps the weekend in baseball. They hit every series and its results, plus some major championship-defining news on the horizon.

Tarik Skubal completed his first rehab start, and his return is imminent. Rumors are heating up that the Cy Young Award winner could be traded, so the guys imagine what he’d look like in the Brewers, Pirates, or even Dodgers playoff rotations. Manny Machado’s postgame comments lit up the stat-nerd community, and Jay Hay and Tyler weigh in. 

The severity of Aaron Judge’s injury has been revealed, and Jared laments how much time the Yankees captain will miss on the IL. As always, we get some hot, fresh, award-winning nugs from a freshly shaven Jay Hay as we roll into a loaded week of baseball.

Episode 428: Feud Friday is here! The highly anticipated return of Jared to the feud ring comes with Tyler at his side. The guys show some love to Cristopher Sánchez for his historic 50 2/3-inning scoreless streak while also taking stock of a loaded NL Cy Young race.

Only one player has both an MVP and Cy Young market on Kalshi, and his name is Shohei Ohtani. Dallas and Jay Hay marvel at the wonder of Ohtani’s two-way play. Paul Skenes and Gerrit Cole both struggle in their recent outings, with Jay Hay getting to watch his Guardians smash three home runs against the Yankees in person.

The crew reacts to MLB insider Jeff Passan’s latest article on what to expect at the trade deadline, leading them to ask: What is the cost of acquiring star left-handed pitcher Tarik Skubal?
