Baseball may be in its dog days, but there's nothing lazy about this episode. I sat down with the crew to break down the latest from around the MLB — from injury bugs and trade deadline buzz to wild division races and why Denzel Clarke is basically Spider-Man in cleats.

We get into:

Clarke's circus catches and growing case for AL Rookie of the Year
Jacob Wilson’s insane contact rate and why he’s quietly elite
Why the A’s pitching still makes us want to drink
AL and NL division battles heating up (shoutout to the Tigers and Cubs)
Who’s buying and who’s pretending at the trade deadline
The steroid era: fun as hell or black mark on the game?
MLB’s shift back toward old-school ball – bunting, contact hitting, and all
Father's Day catch on the field with the kids 🧢

Plus:

The Royals have the fifth-best ERA in baseball?!
Zach Wheeler is on dad duty and still shoving
Rockies: still terrible
Can the Mets… not Met for once?

If you're into no-BS baseball talk, bad words, bad bets, and good laughs—you're in the right dugout.
