Today’s word of the day is ‘window’ as in wins as in success as in Houston Astros as in Toronto Blue Jays as in the Baltimore Orioles. The Orioles have called up its top prospect Jackson Holliday. The Orioles won 101 games last season. They have a young team filled with young prospects. But why did the Orioles make this move now? What an emotional day for the Boston Red Sox. The team honored the 2004 champions. The team honored Tim Wakefield. The team lost to the Orioles. The team lost Trevor Story for the season. Julio Urias is done. His career is over. The former Dodgers ace is a free agent and will stay that way. Charged with 5 misdemeanors for domestic violence incident. 2nd time he’s been involved in this in his career. Review: Endgame.

Today’s word of the day is ‘champion’ as in UConn as in back-to-back as in dynasty as in college basketball runs through Connecticut. UConn smoked Purdue in the championship game last night, 75-60. Made it look easy. What is the WNBA going to do? Can the TV money come in? Is the Caitlin Clark impact going to reach that league? How can they capitalize right now? More pitching problems! More elbow soreness! Framber Valdez hurt! Gerrit Cole speaks out! Justin Verlander speaks out! Shane Bieber speaks out! Review: Origin. The Miami Marlins quietly declined Skip Schumaker’s deal for 2025. Why? He was just manager of the year! Arte Moreno did something hilarious over the weekend. We have to talk about it.

Today’s word of the day is ‘undefeated’ as in perfect season as in South Carolina as in Dawn Staley as in Caitlin Clark. What a tournament it was for the women’s side. Breaking records. Breaking viewership records. What happens next? John Calipari is leaving Kentucky! For Arkansas!? NPPOD. So You Wanna Talk to Samson!? What is happening with these pitcher injuries!? Is it the pitch clock? Is it velocity? Review: Life & Beth S2. Stephen Strasburg has officially retired. He hasn’t pitched since 2022. He hasn’t pitched much since 2019. Angels broadcaster Wayne Randazzo went off on MLB during a broadcast. All the issues. All the problems. Woof. We’ve got some Scott Boras news. Because Scott Boras needs to stay in the news.

Today’s word of the day is ‘intimate’ as in closeness as in personal as in the Athletics are moving to Sacramento for an interim period. A 14,000 seat ballpark that hosts a Triple-A team. John Fisher spoke. Vivek Ranadivé spoke. Dave Kaval spoke. Mayors are speaking. Let’s try and investigate what happened with Shohei Ohtani’s first home run ball. Did the Dodgers bully a fan? Review: The Lionheart. Marlins young ace Eury Perez is getting Tommy John. Bad news. Sad news. The Marlins cannot afford to lose anymore pitching. NPPOD – Final Four is here! We have a little issue in New York City. No not that issue or that issue or that issue. But the NY Marathon problem. Met Transportation Authority tried to squeeze the marathon officials for $750K!

Today’s word of the day is ‘super league’ as in college football as in promotion as relegation as in no more conferences. That’s what’s happening now. We have leaders of the new college world trying to do things to fundamentally change college sports. Is a super league even able to happen? Even college basketball is looking for more alternatives. Fox is launching its own NIT alternative. Let’s talk about when to hit the panic button in baseball. Steve Cohen spoke with CNBC about the slow start, about spending money. What about the Marlins? We still have to talk about LIV and PGA. The drama continues. The merger has yet to happen. And now the players are starting to get upset. Review: About Time. Let me discuss Larry Lucchino and his life, and legacy. NPPOD. Another update on the Oakland Athletics. The team reportedly met with Sacramento officials about playing there for the next 3 seasons. Or is Sacramento trying to leverage a moment? Let’s end the show with some settlement talk. Pat Fitzgerald filed a huge lawsuit against Northwestern over wrongful termination. Northwestern wanted it to go away… a judge has said not so fast!
