It's CBA season and nobody's happy because for the second time in five years, MLB is all but certainly headed for another lockout. The guys dive into why players will never accept a salary cap, Aaron Judge's injury, and the NL Central somehow being the most competitive in baseball

A quick deviation just to acknowledge the New York Knicks making the NBA Finals, but otherwise it's business as usual at Baseline Baseball.

Aaron Judge is slowly working out of his slump while Jazz Chisholm Jr. is raking...in Giancarlo Stanton's pants. Plus, the Padres look pitiful while the Diamondbacks look ready to strike, the Mets are letting the kids play, and which team will clinch the AL West with a sub-.500 record?

Veteran baseball writer and New York Times bestselling author Tim Brown joins Baseline Baseball this week to talk his new book "Nolan: The Singular Life of an American Individual," and how MLB strikeout king Nolan Ryan's legacy lives on today. Tim discusses what drew him to Nolan Ryan, which pitchers we might see some of him in today, and how one single arm from Alvin, Texas left his mark on America's pastime.

Baseline Baseball looks back on the legacy of longtime Yankees radio broadcaster John Sterling, who passed away Monday. The guys share their favorite Sterling calls, plus note how the American League is basically the Yankees, Rays...and that's it?

And...ever notice how it's May and Fernando Tatis Jr. still hasn't hit a home run???

Alex Cora fired in Boston, Rob Thomson fired in Philadelphia, and Juan Soto's drama with the New York Mets continues yet again.

It's not even May, and yet the New York Mets might have played themselves out of playoff contention during this 11-game losing streak. Plus, Aaron Judge and Mike Trout slug their way through a series, and complaints over being tall on airplanes.

The Slam Diego Padres are back in action, Mason Miller's in the early Cy Young conversation, and the Chicago White Sox are handing out Pope Hats.

Meanwhile, the Yankees and Mets are both struggling while the A's might be leaning a little too hard into a new gimmick.

Baseline Baseball recaps the plethora of storylines from the first week of the 2026 MLB season.

Baseline Baseball discusses the most exciting matchups of Opening Day, the new contract extensions for Pete Crow-Armstrong and Cristopher Sanchez and which may be a secret albatross, and odd injuries throughout baseball history.

It's a double episode this week as both the AL and NL Eastern Divisions. It's an interesting contrast as the Yankees appear ready to run it back with...Boston nipping at their heels? Plus, the surprising lack of power across the NL side, particularly in the divisional favorite Philadelphia Phillies!
