Roundtrippers

It's the season 2 premiere of the Roundtrippers podcast! In the wake of Ken Rosenthal's departure from MLB Network, Dong City co-host Vince Mercandetti and sports journalist Corey Decker join me for a discussion on baseball journalism. We react to Rosenthal's departure and talk about the journalistic process and different things that affect it. Corey talks about when he discovered Kirk Gibson's disdain for the Dodgers and Vince talks about when he met Pedro Martinez.  All of this is on an entertaining discussion on the Roundtrippers podcast. Thanks for listening!

It's the final episode of the 2021 and the final episode of Season 1 of the Roundtrippers podcast! Austin is still feeling the holiday spirit and wants to give Hall of Fame votes to well-deserving players. Who gets his vote? Listen to the episode and find out! Thanks for listening!

Austin looks at the this year's Golden Era ballot for the 2022 Hall of Fame. He tells stories of all ten players on the ballot and chooses who he thinks belongs in the Hall from this group. He also touches on the Early Baseball ballot as well.

Austin goes over notable free agents and tries to figure out what each team needs from the free agent market and who each team needs to target.

Two teachers take you to history class as Jonathan Jordan makes his debut on the show, and we highlight some pretty cool statistics that he created to settle a debate about Rickey Henderson. We take a dive into Jonathan's Small, Middle, Big, and All Ball statistic as well as his All WARPS+ to try and find the greatest all-around offensive player of 2021...and in the history of baseball. The list is pretty amazing, and the stats themselves are getting attention from baseball historians. Thanks for listening!

Melvin Lopez Ohna of the Baseball Cosmos Facebook page returns to talk the World Series, the Winter Leagues, and early free agent predictions. We also banter on long days after Daylight Savings and traffic in Atlanta. Listen in on the fun! Thanks for listening!

Austin gives out Gold Glove, Silver Slugger, and Hank Aaron awards for the 2021 seasons and tells about the award that means the most to him.

Happy 20th episode! It's just Austin for this episode as he comments on the playoffs, Cody Bellinger, and how the tired the Dodgers are.  Austin also discusses how there really isn't a need for robo umps and finishes off with a Last Call story about when he umpired a Little League game.  All of this is on the latest episode of the Roundtrippers podcast.  Thanks for listening!

It's postseason time!  Felipe Melecio is back, and we discuss players that have come up big in high leverage situations for their teams...they might not be players that you immediately think of.  Take a listen to see who is coming up big in the postseason.  Thanks for listening!

Felipe Melecio is back to talk about the upcoming postseason.  The bracket is set and we talk about our predictions for each round of the postseason.  Don't miss this thrilling discussion because both Felipe and I have some interesting and bold picks along the way!
