    In this episode of the Fourteen Twenty Sports Bar Podcast, Brent Radlinsky welcomes award-winning writer Eric Katz for a no-nonsense look at the state of the Yankees and the ever-chaotic world of MLB. The duo dissect New York’s injury woes, debate whether it’s time to move on from Giancarlo Stanton, and discuss if Aaron Boone is really the problem—or just the next scapegoat in the front-office era. They break down whether the Yankees should go all-in at the trade deadline or play the long game with prospects, and weigh in on the team’s stubborn gap at catcher. Plus, Eric Katz gives his insights on the failure of big-money team-building (looking at you, Mets!), why MLB's pitching model might be unsustainable, and the looming labor standoff that could reshape baseball contracts forever.

    Are the Yankees in a June Swoon or Something Different This Year?

    In this episode of The Fourteen Twenty Sports Bar Podcast, host Brent Radlinsky bellies up to air out all the frustrations plaguing Yankee fans after a dreadful "June Boone Swoon." Radlinsky breaks down New York’s five-game losing streak, lackluster hitting, injuries to key sluggers like Judge and Stanton, and the head-scratching lack of urgency in the dugout. Is manager Aaron Boone really to blame for the Yankees’ annual midseason meltdown, or is it deep-rooted organizational complacency—and should anyone feel scared of this version of the Bronx Bombers? Plus, he calls out underachieving players, stresses the contagiousness of both hitting and slumps, and draws brutal comparisons to the floundering Mets. It’s an episode fueled by honest rants, harsh truths, and just a sliver of hope that things might finally change—if the Yankees can get healthy and recapture that old-school fire. Grab a beer and join the conversation!

Host Brent Radlinsky, an amateur baseball insider, unpacks the lost art of playing for fun, the pressure of parental ambition, and why “if you’re good, they’ll find you” still rings true.
