Drop the Ball

This week, the guys discuss the two top 100 prospects by Baseball America in our system, and how there's one on the outside looking in. Kendry Chourio and David Shields are set to be household names in prospect circles. Deep dive on Salvy's playing time, and what we should expect in 2026. We're in one year deal territory now, as we look to who could help this squad off the bench, since that big bat is seemingly not coming. Matt once again pleads that we cannot rely on Jac Caglianone and Carter Jensen only in 2026. It's playoffs or bust and it seems you're running back with the same squad. We chat Carlos Beltran going to the Hall of Fame, and then end it with America's favorite segment: Drop the Ball!

On this week's episode, Matt and Jackson chat about the Chiefs coaching changes. And how they can expect to see some discipline in the upcoming season. Eric Bieniemy is back as the Chiefs' offensive coordinator, and complacency is going away with his arrival. We also chat how this means Travis is more than likely coming back in a Chiefs uni in 2026. We also highlight the NFL playoffs and talk about the matchups, and of course, we end it with America's favorite segment: Drop the Ball!

This week on Drop the Ball in partnership with Farm to Fountains, we chat the Royals bringing in the fences at Kauffman Stadium. Along with the International signing class the Royals have for 2026, there's a couple good gets by the boys in blue. We also discuss what trade partners are left for the Royals as we think they're not going to make the "big move" this offseason. Cags and Jonathan India have very big seasons for the Royals this year, and we need to take as much pressure off Jac as possible. We end it with a message from Matt: DON'T SETTLE or you will be in the same spot that you were in 2025. And of course we end it with America's favorite segment: Drop the Ball!

This week, we have an NFL episode, where we discuss what is happening throughout the NFL playoffs. Surprisingly enough, they continue to play them even when the Chiefs don't make it. We highlight how we think they will play out and show our favorites headed into the weekend if you're looking for bets!

This Royals episode brought by Farm to Fountains, highlights Matt Quatraro's extension with the Royals! How important he actually is to this team and we see what is going on on the Hot Stove. Brendan Donovan is brought up, Kris Bubic keeps getting tossed around, and how important Jac Caglianone can be, but we cannot rely on him. They need another BAT! Then we end it with america's favorite segment: Drop the Ball!

On this week's Chiefs' episode, we highlight the last game of the regular season... but more importantly, we end it. Travis might be done, the coaching staff needs some changes, and we hope that Matt Nagy isn't back. Then we see what this team could get with a top ten pick, and how they HAVE TO hit on that pick. Then we end it with America's favorite segment: Drop the Ball!

*THIS EPISODE IS A MASHUP OF THE ROYALS SEGMENTS FROM THE FULL EPISODES THE LAST TWO WEEKS*

Included in the mashup is: our discussion on how Matt Strahm impacts this bullpen, and how it's looking like the arm barn might be one of the best in baseball in 2026. We hear the arms that are on the market for the Royals, the depth that they need to cover, and how they'll handle the 2B position. We of course discuss who that "big bat" is going to be for this team in 2026, as they haven't made the move yet. Maybe they look to other options moving forward? Look to make the move for the bat at the deadline. We end it with a discussion on Carter Jensen and Jac Caglianone, and how they could be part of the spark-plug they're looking for.

This week on Drop the Ball, the Chiefs continue to struggle without Patrick Mahomes. While the owners of the Chiefs, the Hunts, decide that they want to take the team to the Kansas side. We discuss our reactions and how it might not be the best idea. Then we chat the Royals options on the trade market. It seems that's where they want to make a deal. So, there's a few names that would be ideal fits for KC. And of course, we end it with America's favorite segment: Drop the Ball.

This week on Drop the Ball, the guys discuss the worst Chiefs game of, maybe, the last 10 years? The worst team in the NFL just cooked your favorite team, lead by Cam Ward, Tony Pollard, and Chig Okonkwo. Yeah it's bad, and there needs to be changes coming in the offseason. Then, the Royals add Matt Strahm via trade, and we talk about how the bullpen is a key strength for KC. It can make strides to be even better.
