In this episode, Jim and Adam have a discussion about the ascent of Trevor Bauer, and why he needs to be held accountable for his actions, particularly on social media. We also take a step back though, and start asking bigger, more nuanced questions on why Bauer is more the symptom of a larger problem, than the problem itself.

In this episode, Jim and Adam open two packs of '91 Fleer Baseball cards, and marvel at how terrible their luck is.

A new year, a new... us? Probably not, but we did take some time to look back at some of our favorite moments over the past 52 episodes we've done.

In this episode, Adam and Jim got to have a great conversation with Bradford William Davis of the NY Daily News about MLB's move to "acknowledge" the Negro Leagues, why character voting in the Hall of Fame remains a sticky subject, and his latest work on CC Sabathia's struggle and recovery with alcohol.

It's Hall of Fame season! Jim and Adam sit down to discuss the IBWAA Hall of Fame ballot and discuss who got votes, who didn't, and why this year might be one of the most complicated years in recent memory.

Some topics include:

- Why Tim Hudson and Mark Buehrle might be one in the same.

- You can't have Manny without Sammy and Gary

- Curt Schilling is forcing us to define what the Hall REALLY is.

- Billy Wagner rules.

On the show's half-centennial episode, Adam sits down with Craig Edwards, writer at fangraphs who issued the official Fangraphs 2021 Free Agency guide. We talked about what fans can expect this year from the open market, and about specific players and how we think they'll fair. I promise, there's minimal Trevor Bauer talk.

In this weeks episode, Adam and Jim take a deep(ish) dive into who exactly Steve Cohen, the new owner of the Mets is, and ask the question "Is this guy any different than any other MLB Owner?".

Also we examine a question of if we could induct three players to Cooperstown on a whim, who would they be?

In the first episode of the offseason, Mark Simon from Sports Info Solutions and contributor to the 2020 Bill James Handbook returns to the show to talk about the year in defense, and play a guessing game with Jim!

In this week's episode, Jim and Adam look ahead to the LCS series for both leagues, and why one series is built between the lines, and the other in the headlines. In the process, Jim and Adam debate the merits of baseball fans uniting under one common theme, hating the Astros... and whether or not that's actually a good thing.

In this weeks episode, Adam and Jim talk about how Rob Manfred and MLB are simply making the wrong decisions on scheduling postseason games, and take a look at each Divisional Series matchup.
