Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman continue their spring training coverage in a very unique way on the latest pod. The duo asks what spring training cliché defines each of the 30 teams in MLB this season. From 'we're going to surprise some people' to 'we have a target on our backs', Jake and Jordan place each team in tiers based on springing clichés. The two also discuss the latest injury bug that's caught the New York Yankees and answer listeners questions. Jake and Jordan end the show by trying to imagine who'd be the official captain for all 30 teams entering this season: (2:15) - Tiering and placing each of the 30 teams based on spring training clichés (21:15) - Sorry for your mentions: Yankees fans are in full panic mode already (27:45) - Jake and Jordan answer your questions (37:15) - Oh captain my captain: Identifying who'd be a the official captain on all 30 teams Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app: 🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3Ij2sgR 🎧 Spotify: https://spoti.fi/42Lo4fa 📢Yahoo Sports podcast network: https://apple.co/3zEuTQj And check out Jake, Jordan & the show on X or Instagram: 🐦 @CespedesBBQ: https://twitter.com/CespedesBBQ 📷 @CespedesBBQ: https://www.instagram.com/cespedesbbq ⚾ @Jake_Mintz: https://twitter.com/Jake_Mintz 🧢 @J_Shusterman: https://twitter.com/j_shusterman_…

In the current game of baseball, teams are always looking for ways to get younger and more athletic. Some teams try to acquire these types of players via free agency (New York Mets with Juan Soto, Boston Red Sox with Garrett Crochet), while others try to do it via the draft. There are a few teams that stand out higher than the others, and we’re here to give you our rankings. Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss their 26-and-under power rankings for the 2025 season, explaining why the New York Yankees and Philadelphia Phillies are sitting at the bottom of this list, while the Red Sox and Atlanta Braves are in prime shape for the future. Also, on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, the guys answer your emails, including whether MLB should adopt an in-season tournament similar to the successful NHL 4 Nations tourney, and discuss why the automated ball-strike system might be the best replay review system in sports. Jake and Jordan then make their picks for The Good, The Bad & The Uggla . (1:50) - The Opener: Reviewing the 26-and-under power rankings (18:18) - Who’s in the top 10?

Yankees make SHOCKING announcements, MLB tries out the ABS & 30 highlights from Spring Training 1:15:27

1:15:27

The New York Yankees made two shocking announcements that sent headlines throughout sports, and neither involved acquiring a player or firing someone. In a surprising turn of events, Yankees Managing General Partner Hal Steinbrenner sent out a memo saying that for the first time since his late father controlled the team, players would be allowed to sport “well-groomed beards” while on the roster. Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss the surprising turn of events, as well as the other notable announcement that the team won’t be playing Frank Sinatra’s iconic “Theme from New York, New York” after losses. The guys wonder what may have caused this change in tune from the new boss and if their World Series loss has anything to do with it. Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast , Jake and Jordan talk about MLB trying out for the first time ever during Spring Training the Automated Ball-Strike challenge system and if this means it’s only a matter of time before Robo-Umps become a thing in the game. They then give their top thirty highlights for each team from Spring Training so far, including Dave Roberts learning about Roki Sasaki’s marriage, Mike Trout’s uneventful debut in right field and Elly De La Cruz on his NL MVP odds.

50:48

The self-imposed deadline between Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and the Toronto Blue Jays to ink the first baseman to a long-term deal has come and gone without an agreement. Vladdy may not be very long for the powder blue unis north of the border. Jake Mintz & Jordan Shusterman open today's podcast episode diving into what this means for the Blue Jays and for Vlad with no extension in place and the 1B likely heading to free agency this November. Did Juan Soto's massive offseason haul make Vlad reconsider his options in regards to testing the market? Will the Blue Jays look to trade their homegrown star before this summer's deadline? Jake & Jordan talk it all out. Elsewhere in the majors, Alex Bregman has only been with the Boston Red Sox for a few weeks and already there is drama in the infield. When asked if he would be willing to give up playing third base to the incoming Bregman, longtime Sox 3B Rafael Devers simply said, "no." First baseman Tristan Casas backed Devers up. What will that mean for Boston's infield this year as now there is a crowded game of musical chairs at first base, third base and DH. Later in the show, Jordan Shusterman discusses commissioner Rob Manfred's latest address to the media this week in Arizona and how he mostly defended the Los Angeles Dodgers' winter spending spree which had come under the ire of the other 29 fanbases. Closing out the show, the guys play a round of The Good, The Bad, The Uggla in which the Houston Astros are moving Jose Altuve to left field, Shohei Ohtani cannot parallel park his Porsche and Jake has some recommendations to rename the Grapefruit and Cactus Leagues.

The last holdout for notable free agents has finally signed, as Alex Bregman and the Boston Red Sox agreed to a deal late Wednesday night that sees the former Houston Astros third baseman taking his talents to Beantown. While the move isn’t entirely shocking considering both the team and player have been connected throughout the offseason, how Bregman fits is the next question. Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss why it was a logical move for the Red Sox to acquire the former All-Star, if Bregman will opt out of his contract following 2025 and the possible reason he chose to play for the Red Sox and manager Alex Cora instead of reuniting with A.J. Hinch in Detroit for a longer deal. Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast , the guys discuss Nick Pivetta and Kenley Jansen signing deals out on the West Coast, as well as talk about one of the bigger problems the New York Yankees might be facing this season.

Spring Training kicks off this week for MLB clubs, with many players already reporting to their club sites to get ready for the marathon that starts next month. However, for free-agent third baseman Alex Bregman, he still doesn’t know where, or when, he’ll be reporting to camp. Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss Bregman still waiting for Scott Boras to broker a deal between one of the teams that have shown interest, and those who should be, in the services of the All-Star infielder, including the Houston Astros, Boston Red Sox, Chicago Cubs and Detroit Tigers. They also talk about why this is the possible consequence of playing the waiting game and what kind of contract he can expect at this point. Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, the guys are joined by former All-Star and four-time Gold Glove first baseman Eric Hosmer, as they dive into his career, including success off of Chris Sale and Clayton Kershaw, his adventures playing the outfield and his clutch gene that led to nine career walk-offs. Jake and Jordan then talk about some of the other moves around baseball before discussing what a baseball career for Patrick Mahomes might’ve looked like. (1:29) - Is it baseball season?

One of the most notable free agents has finally signed with only days until Spring Training, and it’s a reunion that many have been expecting. Late Wednesday night, the New York Mets and Pete Alonso agreed on a deal to bring the Polar Bear back for at least one more season in Flushing. Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss why the re-signing by the Mets was always inevitable despite the back-and-forth between the club and Alonso’s camp, the reasoning why the first-base market never materialized for Pete and the reason why the Amazin’s lineup looks so much better now. Also, on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, the guys talk about a few notable Spring Training position battles, including who is playing third base for the New York Yankees and which pitchers might be included in an already crowded Los Angeles Dodgers starting rotation.

With Jack Flaherty returning to the Detroit Tigers and Max Scherzer taking his Hall of Fame resume to the Toronto Blue Jays, both teams are hoping the pitchers provide a spark to their rotations. Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss the surprising move of Flaherty going back to Detroit and why his contract signals that he will more than likely re-test free agency after next season, as well as whether the Blue Jays will be able to get a healthy Scherzer to anchor their rotation in an already competitive AL East division. Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, the guys take a look at some of the top prospects in baseball, including Roman Anthony from the Boston Red Sox, Sebastian Walcott from the Texas Rangers and Drake Baldwin from the Atlanta Braves.

Yankees owner on Dodgers’ spending, Junior Caminero’s amazing performance in LIDOM championship 1:06:59

1:06:59

The New York Yankees haven’t been quiet this offseason in regard to putting together a roster that they feel can hopefully get them back to the World Series in 2025. The same can be said for Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner this past week when he made a little noise himself, notably making comments about how the Los Angeles Dodgers have spent this offseason. Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss the noise that came from the Boss in the Bronx about how teams can’t spend like the world champs currently are and if these comments have something to do with the upcoming CBA talks that will surely focus on free agency and the way teams spend. They also talk about Hal selling the 2025 team as better than the 2024 club and whether the Yankees can actually put faith in a bounce-back season from Paul Goldschmidt and DJ LeMahieu. Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast , the guys get into the incredible performance (and bat flip) by Junior Caminero from Game 7 of the LIDOM championship, including a feat that’s almost unheard of and how much better he can possibly get.

Astros trade could lead to Bregman reunion, Steve Cohen draws the line on Pete Alonso & LIDOM controversy? 51:05

51:05

Over the weekend, the Houston Astros were finally able to trade reliever Ryan Pressly to the Chicago Cubs after he agreed to waive his no-trade clause and sign off on the deal. With the trade going through and some money being saved, could this mean the Astros are willing to bring back a familiar face at third base? Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss whether the Pressly-Cubs trade could indicate that Houston is trying to find funds to re-sign Alex Bregman and reunite him with Jose Altuve, something the second baseman has said he's willing to do by moving to the outfield to help accommodate the team. Even though the Astros have, in theory, moved on from the two-time All-Star based on the moves they’ve made, perhaps a reunion could be in the cards now. Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, the guys talk about comments made by New York Mets owner Steve Cohen at Amazin’ Day, which suggest he might be drawing a line in the sand regarding bringing back Pete Alonso and why he may be showing agent Scott Boras he’s done being taken advantage of.

The dream offseason that the defending champion Los Angeles Dodgers are having continued with the signing of prized Japanese ace Roki Sasaki, right before agreeing to a deal with star closer Tanner Scott. As the Dodgers continue to assemble a team that resembles something out of a video game, many are wondering if this is good for the game of baseball. Jake Mintz is joined by senior writer from The Athletic , Andy McCullough, as they discuss whether Los Angeles’ spending is going a bit too far and whether it could force the league to consider a spending cap in future CBA negotiations. They also talk about why the Dodgers are in a position where they can take a risk on acquiring a reliever like Tanner Scott in a way that other teams might not be willing to. Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast , Jake and Andy discuss the Toronto Blue Jays finally landing the slugger they've been after in Anthony Santander and why they might be having a sneaky good offseason that could help them land a postseason spot come October.

While many of the top free agents this offseason have signed and know where they’ll be playing baseball next season, one franchise player still remains on the market and it seems like his old team is ready to move on. After signing Jesse Winker on Thursday, the New York Mets are reportedly ready to pivot their offseason plans away from bringing back franchise first baseman Pete Alonso. Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss why the polar bear has a right to be frustrated with the way things have gone for him this free agency with the Mets, question the lack of interest in a player who has been so durable on the field and explore where he could ultimately end up if his time in Queens is actually over.
