After some Very Important Weather Talk we dive into a position with both promise and disappointment (often embodied in the same player). We compare and contrast early-round young bucks Adley Rutschman and Yainer Díaz, debate what might be left in the t...
Welcome to preview season 2025! We begin our positional previews with a corner that is not just cold, but downright Arctic (at least before cliimate change melted all of the sea ice) past a certain point. We have mild disagreements about Matt Olson and...
At last, we have gone through our positional reviews for 2024 (yeah, we skipped relievers, sorry), finishing up with starting pitchers. If aces didn't always ace, they at least held serve (Spencer Strider being the exception, sob). Some nice innings co...
We continue with our positional group reviews from 2024, this time focusing on catchers and corner infielders. Jon had some occasional mic trouble but Mike mostly says the smart stuff, anyway--so no big loss there!Flags Fly Forever is a Baseball Prospe...

Since the last podcast, a lot has happened in the world. One of things that hasn't happened is the White Sox winning a single game.Today we avoid current events to discuss some fallout from the trade deadline, with quite a bit of attention to the close...
Hey, it's (just past) the middle of the season, so Mike and Jon talk a bit about how patience with slow starters and consistent FAABing have worked wonders for their suddenly-halfway-decent Main Event squad.Then we dive into Mike's midseason valuations...
