    Episode 445: Walk-Off Walker

    Episode 445: All-Star Festivities lit up Philadelphia and gave us potentially one of the best Home Run Derbies of all time. The new rules and format changes are put under the microscope as Jared, Tyler, Jay Hay, and Dallas share their love for the updates and the improvements to Netflix’s presentation. The American League’s 4-0 victory over the National League turned out to be a surprising snoozer of an All-Star Game. Cody Bellinger took home MVP honors, but not before Dallas made his case for the only player who reached base twice in the game: Shea Langeliers. The guys also break down a story that dropped in The Athletic involving a frequent listener of the show, along with their first-half MVP and Cy Young winners. Tap in for Jay Hay’s Hot Fresh Award-Winning nugs, and tune in Friday for BID Feud and a full look around every division in baseball at the conclusion of the first half of the season. 00:00:00 - Home Run Derby Reactions 00:21:53 - Dallas’s Shea Langeliers MVP Campaign 00:24:38 - The Rocket and Barry 00:26:53 - The Rocket and The Kid 00:30:20 - Cody Bellinger All-Star MVP 00:30:48 - The Haters Are the Motivators? 00:47:12 - A Quote From All-Star Media Day 00:53:46 - Back Update From Tyler 00:55:31 - First Half Cy Young & MVP Winners 01:15:46 - Award-Winning Nugs | Sign Up For The BID Patreon!

    Episode 444: Welcome to the start of the 2026 All-Star Break. It’s been a long and winding road for every team, but who or what has been the biggest surprise from the first half of the season? The guys discuss plenty of surprises, including the Chicago White Sox in a prime playoff position despite low preseason odds and the Pittsburgh Pirates boasting the second-best offense in baseball. Jared and the guys share their Home Run Derby selections before Jared heads to Media Day in Philadelphia. Jay Hay, Dallas, and Tyler stick around to talk about how sweep-happy the league was in its final series before the break. They also chat about the draft that took place this weekend. Check out our interviews with three of the top four picks from this year’s draft on the Baseball Is Dead YouTube page! They wrap up the show talking about JJ Wetherholt getting a bag to stay in St. Louis, and Dallas shouts out the efforts of now-former A’s pitching coach Scott Emerson.

    Episode 443: Platinum Player

    Episode 443: Dallas, Jay Hay, Jared, and Tyler react to a loaded week of news in the baseball world. Surefire Hall of Famer Justin Verlander has announced his retirement at the end of the 2026 season. Dallas reflects on one of the greatest pitchers he ever shared the diamond with, what Verlander’s career means, and the end of a bygone era for starting pitchers. Jared Jones became the latest pitcher to be pulled in the midst of a perfect game. Jared and Jay Hay dive deep into why they believe it was the right decision for both the Pirates and the Marlins. Yankees announcer Michael Kay found himself in hot water after reporting that Anthony Volpe would not be moving positions. The wait is over, BID Family Feud is back with another special guest rounding out the four-person battle, and the platinum player, Atlanta Braves first baseman Matt Olson, joins the show to catch up with the crew and talk about the Home Run Derby. 00:00:00 - Sign Up For Our Patreon!

    Episode 441: Pulled In Perfection

    Episode 441: Coming off America’s 250th birthday, the crew talks about an eventful weekend of baseball and touches on every series. Our guy Dallas, a man who has thrown his own perfect game, had a front-row seat for Eury Pérez’s seven perfect innings. Unfortunately for baseball, seven innings is all Pérez would get, and the guys go deep into the dynamics of pulling a pitcher in the middle of a perfect game. Jared lights a candle and bids farewell to several umpires who are retiring at the end of the 2026 season, including statistically the worst umpire in baseball.  Jay Hay has a whole oven full of hot nugs coming off the holiday weekend, so tap into the best baseball podcast on the web and get your hot dog condiment thoughts ready. 00:00:00 - Jared Meets His Neighbors 00:03:20 - Fourth of July Recap | What Do You Put on Your Hot Dog? 00:13:41 - Weekend Series Recap | White Sox vs. Guardians 00:16:47 - Pirates vs. Nationals 00:18:39 - Red Sox vs. Angels 00:20:49 - Cubs vs. Cardinals 00:21:47 - Orioles vs. Reds 00:22:34 - Dodgers vs. Padres 00:25:42 - Astros vs. Rays 00:28:01 - Rockies vs. Giants 00:30:08 - Royals vs. Phillies 00:31:10 - Tigers vs. Rangers 00:33:41 - Brewers vs. Diamondbacks 00:35:02 - Twins vs. Yankees 00:38:24 - Mariners vs. Blue Jays 00:41:34 - Braves vs. Mets 00:48:43 - Pulled in the Midst of Perfection 01:29:34 - Umpires Retiring at the End of the Year 01:36:41 - Award-Winning Nugs 01:42:18 - Final Thoughts NEW BID MERCH IS HERE: https://www.baseballisdead.com Trade $20 get $20 on Kalshi - https://app.kalshi.com/1r91/BID Sign Up For Our Patreon for more Baseball Is Dead Content! https://www.patreon.com/cw/BaseballisDead Discover upgraded basics, fresh styles, and more at http://mackweldon.com Plus, get 20% off your first order of $125 or more with code JARED.

    Episode 440: Skenes Skid

    Episode 440: The Feud is back! Baseball Is Dead's Feud returns for another 2 vs. 2 battle, with a special guest joining the program to see if they can keep the guest's undefeated streak alive. Before the feud, the guys discuss the struggles of superstar Paul Skenes. Jay Hay and Dallas dive deep into the numbers on Skenes' pitches and break down the miraculous performance of Dansby Swanson. Swanson's rise from potential worst player in baseball to the best offensive player in recent weeks has baffled the guys and couldn't have come at a better time for the Chicago Cubs. The show wraps up with a fantastic interview with Guardians pitcher Joey Cantillo, who talks about his Hawaiian roots, the at-bats that have stuck with him, and the mindset of being part of a large prospect-haul trade. 00:00:00 - Shoutout Johnny  00:03:34 - What Is Going On With Paul Skenes? 00:17:23 - Dansby Swanson Resurgence  00:25:31 - Junior’s Home Run Streak Continues  00:35:37 - Family Feud 01:03:04 - Award-Winning Nugs 01:05:57 - Joey Cantillo Joins BID!  01:30:50 - Final Thoughts NEW BID MERCH IS HERE: https://www.baseballisdead.com Trade $20 get $20 on Kalshi - https://app.kalshi.com/1r91/BID Sign Up For Our Patreon for more Baseball Is Dead Content! https://www.patreon.com/cw/BaseballisDead Upgrade your wallet today!

    Episode 439: Flying Fish

    Episode 439: The calendar page has turned again, and the Miami Marlins are hoping their strong June form carries into July. The fighting fish dominated the month and put up the best month in franchise history. The guys react to their dominance and start asking whether the Marlins should be taken seriously as playoff contenders. The benches cleared again at Fenway Park, with Willson Contreras once again finding himself in the middle of a heated moment. Cade Cavalli’s quotes after the fiery punch-out only inflamed the situation, and Dallas continues to advocate for his long-held belief that these guys should be allowed to duke it out hockey style. Regression has finally caught up with Cam Schlittler—to the delight of Jared—and the Home Run Derby has found its first participant. The guys discuss whether the Derby is starting to go the way of the NBA Slam Dunk Contest. And finally, the crew shows some love to players across the league who have caught their eye over the past week. 00:00:00 - The Best Team in June?
