Andrew Rotondi of Bronx Pinstripes joined me to talk about the return of baseball and annual over/unders.

Yankees baseball is back! After a four-month shutdown, the Yankees open their 60-game season on Thursday in Washington D.C. against the defending champion Nationals. Real, actual, meaningful baseball is here.

Rangers Podcast: Fix the NHL Point System

Neil Paine of Five Thirty Eight joined me to talk about improving the NHL’s current point system.

If the NHL was based simply on wins and losses, the Rangers would currently hold a postseason spot. If the league awarded three points for a regulation win, two points for an overtime or shootout win and one point for an overtime or shootout loss, the Rangers would currently hold a postseason spot. Unfortunately, the NHL rewards teams who fail to win in regulation and are able to rack up loser points throughout the regular season, and because of this, the Rangers will most likely miss the playoffs.

Neil Paine of Five Thirty Eight joined me to talk about his recent Rangers-related playoff point article, how the Rangers’ lack of overtime and shootout play has hurt their playoff chance and ways the NHL can improve their current point system and overtime format.

Yankees Podcast: Aaron Judge Could Miss Opening Day

There’s no guest once again because there’s another Yankees injury. Aaron Judge is hurt an the Yankees don’t know why.

The Yankees are getting close to not having their entire expected outfield for Opening Day. Aaron Judge’s shoulder is still bothering him when he hits and the Yankees don’t why.

For the third straight podcast, there’s no guest. It’s once again a Yankees injury update and it’s once again not good. Judge is undergoing more testing for his shoulder and if he can’t start playing in spring training games by the end of next week, he won’t be ready for Opening Day, and the Yankees’ entire outfield will be on the injured list.

Yankees Podcast: Giancarlo Stanton Has Become a Joke

There’s no guest today. It’s just me for the second straight day talking about yet another Yankees injury.

Giancarlo Stanton had an up-and-down first season with the Yankees, which ended with him flailing at a Craig Kimbrel slider several feet off the plate and in the dirt. His second season was a disaster as he played in just 18 regular-season games and then ended up watching the Yankees lose to the Astros in the ALCS on the bench. Now he’s hurt again and most likely will miss at least the start of the season, though based on his previous injury rehabs, it could be much more.

For the second straight day, there’s no guest. Yesterday, it was just me being sad, frustrated, annoyed and mad about Luis Severino missing the 2020 season, and today it’s just me amazed that Stanton could possibly be hurt yet again.

Yankees Podcast: Feeling Sick Over Luis Severino

There’s no guest today. It’s just me being sad, frustrated, annoyed and mad about Luis Severino missing 2020.

Luis Severino needs Tommy John surgery and will miss the entire 2020 season. The Yankees’ rotation is a mess and there’s still more than a month until spring training.

There’s no guest today. It’s just me being sad, frustrated, annoyed and mad about Severino missing the 2020 season.
