This episode is about truth, grit, and the evolution of baseball told straight from the mound and the dugout. Jack Perkins opens up about what it means to rebuild your career after Tommy John surgery and how faith and self-belief carried him through when the radar gun didn’t. Scott Brosius takes us inside two very different clubhouses — the unraveling A’s of the 1990s and the unstoppable Yankees of 1998 — showing how culture and leadership decide everything once the lights come on. And Scott Feldman pulls no punches about what’s missing from today’s game, calling out how front offices have turned players into spreadsheets and erased the idea of the ace altogether. 

Across three generations, these players reveal the same core truth — baseball still belongs to the grinders. The men who show up, compete, and carry the heartbeat of the game through every shift in era and ideology. This isn’t nostalgia; it’s an unfiltered look at how the sport has changed — and how, beneath the data and dollars, its soul still belongs to those who never stopped believing in the climb.

Boonie welcomes Eric from Giants Sports Talk Live for a heavyweight crossover episode that dives headfirst into the state of baseball. From the Giants’ rollercoaster 2025 season to the Dodgers’ machine-like dominance, the two debate whether big spending is ruining the game—or redefining it. Eric defends the Giants’ blockbuster trade for Rafael Devers and unpacks how a promising start unraveled, while Boonie fires off about how culture, not cash, is what separates dynasties from disasters. Together, they break down why the Dodgers’ old-school approach—letting starters go deep instead of yanking them for analytics—has them steamrolling the playoffs once again. 

But this isn’t just about the standings; it’s about the sport’s future. The pair tackle the looming 2027 lockout, discuss payroll floors, and weigh whether it’s time to rewrite the rules on MLB free agency and service time. Boonie also drops his vision for the A’s future in Las Vegas: locking up Soderstrom, Wilson, and Kurtz long-term to spark a new desert dynasty. With sharp takes, fastballs of truth, and a few laughs along the way, this crossover reminds everyone why baseball still hits hardest when the debates are this real.

Tyler Soderstrom’s Gold Glove nomination isn’t just a feel-good story — it’s the stat-backed validation of a young player who completely rewrote the narrative about his defense. Once labeled a bat-first prospect, Soderstrom has turned into a premier Left Fielder. In this episode of Locked On A’s, we break down the metrics that prove it. The data doesn’t just suggest he belongs — it screams it. 

But this episode isn’t just about Soderstrom. We’re diving into defense across the board: Jacob Wilson’s elite arm accuracy, Nick Kurtz’s smooth scoops at first, Zack Gelof’s range efficiency — even how the team’s overall defensive metrics are shaping the A’s into one of the league’s most fundamentally sound young squads. The Gold Glove nod might’ve started the conversation, but the numbers tell a bigger story: defense is back in Vegas, and the A’s are building their foundation on it.

In Part 2 of Boonie’s explosive conversation with Ray “Dr. Death” Perez, the gloves come off. This episode dives straight into the heart of the A’s exodus — how Senate Bill 293 Skinner, a tailor-made redevelopment tool for Howard Terminal, became the golden ticket Oakland never bothered to cash. Boonie lays out how city leadership fumbled coordination with Alameda County for nearly two years, hiring consultants who miscalculated the stadium subsidy by $2.1 billion and leaving the door wide open for Las Vegas. Meanwhile, Perez calls it like he sees it — a clash between government incompetence and ownership opportunism — while Boonie reminds fans that both sides failed the franchise. 

But this isn’t just about politics and paperwork; it’s about people. From the loyal fans left behind to the communities that wrapped their identity around the green and gold, this is the story of what happens when passion meets policy paralysis. Perez and Boonie go deep on what “loyalty” really means in modern sports, how relocation fractures faith, and why fans shouldn’t have to choose between loving their team and hating its leadership. This one isn’t for the faint of heart — it’s for the die-hards who demand the truth, receipts and all.

Part One of Locked On A’s with Ray “Dr. Death” Perez doesn’t just ask the tough questions—it rips the cover off the stadium game itself. Perez, a Sacramento native and lifelong Raiders fan who’s worked inside government, joins Boonie for a no-filter conversation on who really pays for pro sports: taxpayers or billionaires. Together, they break down the myth of “public-private partnership” and expose how cities are lured into paying for billionaire playgrounds in the name of “economic development.” From infrastructure realities to taxpayer risks, from Oakland’s lost opportunities under SB 293 Skinner to Vegas’ tax district experiment, this episode dissects what’s real and what’s rhetoric.

Boonie doesn’t stop at the big talk. He lays out exactly how John Fisher is funding the new A’s stadium—using construction loans, family stock, and equity strategies few fans have ever heard explained this clearly. The result? A rare, unfiltered look at the intersection of politics, power, and pro sports economics that makes you question everything you’ve been told about how teams move, who benefits, and who gets left holding the bill. If you want the full story, not the press release, this is the episode that finally flips the table.

Tonight on Locked On A’s Live, Boonie dives deep into why Cedric Mullins could be the smartest free-agent pickup for the A’s heading into 2026. We break down his projected production, speed, defense, and leadership qualities—explaining why the veteran outfielder fits the A’s blueprint perfectly. This isn’t about chasing stars—it’s about finding the right ones. Mullins offers value, versatility, and veteran presence at a price that actually makes sense for a team still running a tight payroll. 

We’ll also explore how Mullins’ contact-first, base-stealing approach could reshape the A’s offensive identity. His defensive instincts alone could change how the A’s manage their pitching staff and ballpark dimensions. Join the conversation live at 9:00 PM as we debate: Is Cedric Mullins the missing link between patience, progress, and playoff baseball for the Green and Gold?

In this exclusive episode of Locked On A’s, Boonie goes one-on-one with A’s pitcher Jack Perkins, whose major-league debut in 2025 marked the arrival of a new era of young firepower. Perkins shares what went through his mind the moment he got “the call,” the surreal experience of striking out big-league hitters for the first time, and how he learned to trust his stuff at the highest level. From the emotional rush of his debut to the mental resets that keep him composed during tough innings, Perkins pulls back the curtain on what it truly means to earn every inning in The Show. 

The conversation digs deeper into Perkins’ journey from college adversity to professional breakthrough — how injuries shaped his focus, how analytics helped refine his fastball-sweeper combo, and why the 2024 Double-A season changed everything. Fans get a rare glimpse of the human side of pitching: the doubts, the drive, and the discipline behind each pitch. Whether you’re a die-hard A’s fan or just love baseball’s next wave of talent, this is an episode that hits every corner of the strike zone.

This crossover episode is a full-course meal for baseball fans who love a good “what if.” Booney of Locked On A’s and Gabby of Locked On Red Sox explore the fascinating trade idea involving Jarren Duran heading west in exchange for Luis Severino, Braden Nett, and J.J. Bleday. The two break down the logic, the risk, and the emotions behind it — from Boston’s need for arms to the A’s craving for star power. Along the way, they talk about leadership, front-office philosophy, and how fan expectations shape the narrative for both historic Fenway and the A’s still finding their new home identity. 

Later, the conversation shifts to long-term vision: how the Red Sox’s extension of Roman Anthony could inspire the A’s to lock up their young stars Nick Kurtz, Tyler Soderstrom, and Jacob Wilson. Then Gabby takes Booney — and listeners — on a journey through Fenway Park, its history, its energy, and its magic. From the Monster to the mayhem, this is a fun, fast-paced episode that bridges East Coast tradition with West Coast ambition.

Tonight on Locked On A’s Live, Booney breaks down why it’s time for the A’s to extend Nick Kurtz, Tyler Soderstrom, and Jacob Wilson — right now. The Red Sox just made waves by extending Roman Anthony early, and the A’s have a chance to follow that exact playbook before 2026 begins. These three young cornerstones represent the foundation of the Vegas Dynasty — Kurtz’s left-handed power, Soderstrom’s switch-hitting versatility, and Wilson’s smooth shortstop defense form a trio that can anchor the franchise for the next decade. Extending them early wouldn’t just be smart baseball — it’d be the boldest statement this organization has made in years: that the A’s are finally ready to build instead of rebuild. 

In this live episode, we’ll dive deep into the numbers, the psychology, and the precedent. Why Kurtz deserves to be the face of the Vegas era. And why Soderstrom and Wilson’s extensions would ignite fan confidence heading into Sacramento and beyond. This isn’t just contract talk — it’s culture talk. The A’s have their core; now it’s time to prove they’re keeping it.

In this live edition of Locked On A’s, Booney takes fans on a full-throttle ride through the highs and lows of the 2025 season — the turning points, the breakout players, and the moments that hinted at a bright Vegas horizon. He dissects the performances that defined the year and looks ahead to who’s ready to lock down a roster spot in 2026, from the bullpen’s power arms to the young hitters knocking on the door.

 Then, it’s all about the farm. Where will the A’s top prospects start 2026 — Vegas, Midland, Lansing, or Stockton — and which ones could crash the big-league party sooner than expected? Finally, Booney gets personal, sharing how he became a diehard A’s fan and why this franchise’s story still fuels his fire decades later. It’s reflection, projection, and a whole lot of green-and-gold conviction — live, raw, and unfiltered.
