This week on The Diamond Duo Podcast, Tom and Tony prepare themselves for the last hurrah of the baseball season: the World Series! Before they get there though, they have two things to address first. The two lead off with a couple of stories that recently dropped such as Dusty Baker's retirement, Aaron Judge's reception of the Roberto Clemente Award, and the Yankees need for a hitting coach (for like the third time). Next up is catching up on the Championship Series and all the highlight reel moments and improbable outcomes that came with them! Finally, it's time for them to talk some Fall Classic baseball! Fair note, the most recent game that went down when Tom and Tony recorded was Game 3 so the next two games will not be covered. Even still, that still leaves the Rangers' late game heroics in Game 1, Merrill Kelly's Game 2 gem, and so much more here on the World Series edition of The Diamond Duo Podcast!

Tom & Tony also go over some beginning headlines such as Kim Ng resigning as Marlins GM, Trevor May's retirement and the fiery tirade he had for A's owner, John Fisher, and Brandon Woodruff's shady outlook for 2024.

On top of that, the duo deep dives the first two games of both ALDS & NLDS matchups. In addition to postseason baseball, Tom & Tony also wrap up three regular season headlines they missed last week, including Terry Francona's possible retirement & stolen scooter, MLB's investigation into Billy Eppler's tenure with the Mets, & two pitchers who will miss the 2024 season due to injuries.

Finally, they take one final look at the big Postseason picture! The two discuss who's in, who's soon to be in, and whatever madness is going on in the AL West and the NL Wild Card.

This week on The Diamond Duo Podcast, Tom and Tony turn their attention towards the two franchises that continue to make a mockery of themselves, the Angels & White Sox! Shohei Ohtani's injury & the ensuing waiver moves keep casting a dark shadow on this year's trade deadline decisions, while old issues are brought to light from a former MLB star! The White Sox may have made forward progress with changes at the top, but head-scratching decisions & incidents hinder said progress! Also, Tom & Tony reflect on the career & legacy of Stephen Strasburg after it was announced he'll be retiring.
