Baseball Is Dead Episode 67: Joey Drops A Hit Piece Jan 05, 2023

Show notes

Joey's latest Baseball Doesn't Exist video is a hit piece on the Oakland Athletics and Dallas is not happy. What he is happy about is Yu Darvish throwing a bullpen session in January which already has him all horned-up for baseball. Today's topic on Baseball Is Dead is about how there's nothing to talk about (we recorded pre Rafael Devers extension). We talk baseball players vs football players fight to the death, Randy Johnson defending himself in a home invasion with baseballs, Dallas being blocked by Jon Heyman, whether Correa will sign with the Mets within the week, and more... Tune in next week for our Hall of Fame ballot episode. Enjoy!

Baseball Is Dead Episode 66: Trevor Bauer Reinstated Dec 28, 2022

Show notes

We’re back with our last episode of 2022 and unfortunately Jared and Dallas’ friendship is over after Dallas sent a 16 x 20 framed picture of himself and Jared’s Mom and sister as a housewarming gift to Jared. Trevor Bauer has been reinstated by MLB. We’re taking a look at both his suspension compared to other recent players and if it was weighted the same, and how much backlash a team might get by signing him. The Carlos Correa deal is up in the air AGAIN and we’re predicting whether the Mets can work through the issue with his physical. The roster for the DR in the WBC is RIDICULOUS and we’re taking a look at the lineup and rotation. We go through some news and notes at the end of the episode and cover some signings that happened throughout the week. Enjoy!

Baseball Is Dead Episode 65: Mets STEAL Carlos Correa Dec 22, 2022

Show notes

In a shocking turn of events Carlos Correa is signing with the New York Mets, NOT the Giants. Apparently, Correa was DRESSED for his introductory press conference when he found out that San Francisco was backing out of the deal. We're breaking down all angles of the shocking news that dropped early Wednesday morning. Did the Giants get buyers' remorse after their fans' reaction to the signing? Is Steve Cohen spending like a maniac good for the game of baseball? Giants fans are also calling into the show to give their immediate reaction to losing Correa to the Mets. Warning: they're not happy.

Baseball Is Dead Episode 64: Carlos Correa Gets PAID Dec 15, 2022

Show notes

Today we start the show going through the 2021 Oakland A’s starting lineup and counting everyone who is no longer with the organization. One of those players is Sean Murphy who got traded to Joey’s Braves. We break down the trade and try to decipher why the Braves made this move, then Joey picks the Braves to win the 2023 World Series in 6. The newest Baseball Doesn’t Exist video dropped and we dive into some of the craziest mascot stories in the history of baseball. Carlos Correa signed a mega-deal with the Giants giving him $350 million over 13 years. We discuss how outrageous the shortstop market is currently and where Dansby Swanson might end up and for how much. We also get some BREAKING NEWS mid-pod when Brad Boxberger signs a 1-year deal with the Cubs. We’ll be back next week to break down the first three Harry Potter movies. Enjoy!

Baseball Is Dead Episode 63: Arson Judge + Free Agent Signings Dec 09, 2022

Show notes

We’re back after an absolutely WILD week of free agency news. Jared wants to start with the Jon Heyman debacle because if we start with Xander Bogaerts he’s just going to be miserable the whole podcast. So we hit on the whole Arson Judge and Coke Hamels situation. We then move on to some of the massive free agent deals that were signed this week. We go through Aaron Judge, Justin Verlander, Trea Turner, Josh Bell, Wilson Contreras, Cody Bellinger, and more. We also eventually get to the Xander Bogaerts signing. The Red Sox front office is getting laughed at across the league and Jared is reacting to an article ripping them apart. Jared launched the start of his new company “Rocket Herbal Cigs” and we talk about the direction of the company. Jared and Jake had their end of the year meeting at DraftKings and the Oakland A’s got ripped apart during it. Enjoy!

Baseball Is Dead Episode 62: Gas Up The Hot Stove Nov 30, 2022

Show notes

Dallas wants the hot stove resuscitated. Some are saying the upcoming Winter Meetings will kickstart free agency back into gear. Jared has heard some rumblings about the Aaron Judge sweepstakes and it seems like it’s down to the Giants and the Yankees. Justin Verlander will be 40 years old and is looking for a THREE year deal, and he should get it. Joey thinks deGrom will be the first free agent to sign at the Winter Meetings; Jared thinks signing deGrom is more of a long term play. We’re predicting landing sports for all the other free agents such as Trea Turner, Xander Bogaerts, Dansby Swanson, and more. José Abreu signed with the Astros and somehow is already a great fit in the clubhouse. Joey thinks Jared should threaten to hurt himself if Xander leaves Boston to make Xander want to stay. Shoutout to everyone posting us as their #1 podcast on Spotify Wrapped, we appreciate you!

Baseball Is Dead Episode 61: Judge Meets With Giants Nov 24, 2022

Show notes

We’re back and it’s the Thanksgiving episode of Baseball Is Dead! We got the numbers in and it looks like we retained about 90% of our audience from the previous show which is AMAZING! Thank you to all the listeners who rode with us this year and we can’t wait to take it to the next level! Just like everyone predicted, the Angels have been the most active team in the offseason to this point. Our Angels correspondent joins the pod to talk some Halos to open it up. Joey dropped a new video on Dock Ellis and his infamous no-hitter on LSD which leads us to a discussion about players performing while on drugs. Aaron Judge is in San Fransisco this week and reportedly will meet with the Giants. We’re breaking down the very scripted video that made its way onto social media of Judge being spotted in a SF hotel. We’re also comparing his quotes about free agency to other free agents in baseball. Alek Manoah said Gerrit Cole is the worst cheater in baseball history and we’re going down the list of cheaters to see if anyone is worse than Cole. Albert Pujols won Comeback Player of the Year and Jared thinks Mark Appel deserved it. Joey does not. We make some predictions about Perfect Game balls and talk about Jeremy Peña giving out dive thru orders after winning the World Series. Happy Thanksgiving!

Baseball Is Dead Episode 60: Ohtani Got Robbed Nov 18, 2022

Show notes

The 2022 MLB awards were announced this week and Shohei Ohtani was ROBBED according to Jared. He’s been ringing the Shohei bell all year and just like he said, it came down to an East Coast bias and Aaron Judge took home AL MVP. Dallas also believes Ohtani should’ve won the award. We’re also taking a look at Judge’s comments about free agency and deciphering if he wants to leave the Yankees. We’re also diving into the Cy Young, Rookie of the Year, and Manager of the Year awards. See you next week for a Thanksgiving holiday special!
