Yes, we're still alive!
FCD is back with a brand new episode featuring special guest Reggie Johnson from Just the Stats! Caleb, Paski, and Reggie uncover the biggest moves of the trade deadline, from the Yankees (yet another) World Series push to the wild Juan Soto Sweepstakes. Are the Padres ready to take over as NL West kings in the coming years?
Then it's on to a lively discussion about the nature of super contracts in baseball and how it's changing the game for clubs and players. Should teams really be offering massive 15 year contracts, or do they even have a choice?
Huge thank you to Reggie Johnson for joining us! Make sure to check out his all-sports podcast "Just the Stats" wherever you get your podcasts!

Paski, Caleb, and Noah are back to react to the latest of the MLB! Have the A's lost their spark forever? Will the WhiteSox find their way back? Also, Paski may be psychic after correctly predicting who would break up the Rays' no-hitter, even in the face of Barry's doubt.
Tune in for more fun "Buy or Sell" debates! Who is YOUR best pitcher in the NL West?

Well, we had a special predictions episode planned and then everyone bailed at the last minute. 😂 Still, the show goes on! Just a casual baseball discussion on a Thursday afternoon.
The Barry and Paski Show returns (with a surprise cameo from David) to dive deep into some of the spiciest reactions to the 2022 season. Can anyone beat the Dodgers? Will the A's continue to be a mystery or are they history? Is Gerrit Cole as good as people say he is?

Fresh out of lockout, FCD is back for a brand new season of baseball! (Thankfully). After all that drama, tune in as we discuss the latest new rules and changes to the game (bigger bases AND a bigger postseason?), react to the biggest free agent moves, and talk about our hopes for the 2022 season. It's good to be back.
Who's making the playoffs this year?

And just like that, 2021 baseball has come to an end.
The Braves won the hearts of baseball fans all over the world (except in Houston), and sealed the deal with a well-deserved ring. With the playoffs over, awards season followed. Who deserved their award and who was snubbed? Up next: free agency! There are some big names available this offseason, and we've got the top 25 (30?). Tune in as we debate who's going where!
What's your free agent prediction?
[Recorded on November 19, 2021].
*This season is anything but normal for us as most of us have graduated and are moving to a new phase of life. Our release schedule and episodes will be different and a little hectic, but we will continue to release episodes as much as possible!

ONE MORE SERIES!
We're heading towards the end of the 2021 season, and what a ride! Tune in as we recap the highlights of the LCS' so far, including a revisited robo-ump debate. Who benefits more from that: the pitcher or the hitter? And if that doesn't work, you can always count on Barry and his superstitions to carry the team through. (Maybe). Also, looks like our brackets are officially useless. Or will there be a late surprise comeback?
Who's your World Series winner?

BRACKET SEASON, BABY!
It's officially October and that means POSTSEASON BASEBALL! Fresh off the WildCard series and as the Division Series get rolling, tune in to hear the FCD Crew's craziest bracket picks (Paski did NOT think the NL WildCard through). Will October Randy propel the Rays to a ring? While the Dodgers and Giants may look like sure locks for a World Series appearance, can the Brewers sneak by and make Barry follow through on his promise? Man, we love October baseball.
Who do you have reaching the Championship Series?

[This episode was recorded LIVE during the final inning of the Reds vs. Twins game on 6/22]
July beckons...
FCD TEAMS UPDATE: The WhiteSox have finally fallen from the top, and we have a new leader (no surprises here). Meanwhile, a familiar face takes up the bottom spot.
ROUNDTABLE: It's the hottest new Manfred Rule-Change: the official sticky-stuff ban! Tune in to hear our thoughts on the now heavily implemented and regulations against pitchers using sticky substances. Did MLB handle this correctly?
BONUS! With the All-Star Game approaching, we take a look at the latest positional votes. Some of these are no-brainers, but we've got a bone to pick with more than a few of the rising candidates. What are you Astros and Cubs fans thinking??

2 months gone by!
FCD TEAMS UPDATE: WhiteSox reign supreme while the rest win some and lose some. Did the Tigers really just sweep the Yankees? Also, tune in as we unravel the marvels of 2 more no-hitters this season!
STAT-WORTHY with David: MLB milestones and freak injuries. Standard stuff, really. Oh, and someone got arrested...
ROUNDTABLE: Superstitions! We've all got them, whether we're on the field or watching our favorite team play. Join us as we discuss our favorite routines and jinxes to make sure that we get a favorable outcome. Next time your team is losing, try taking a shower! (Or just skip the shower and do what Barry does...)
[Recorded on May 31, 2021].
*(There were some technical difficulties with mics during this recording session and as a result, some parts are unclear. At around 5:30, Caleb is meant to ask us whether we think a perfect game will be thrown this season.)

We keep (the ball) rolling!
FCD TEAMS UPDATE: Once again, the FCD standings have changed! Will the Twins ever find their mojo? Meanwhile, the Dodgers are beginning to look like the Yankees, especially given the extent of their roster currently on the IL. Tune in to also hear our debate on where the A's should relocate to, if at all! Las Vegas Athletics, anyone?
STAT-WORTHY with David: Wow, no no-hitters this week? Anyway, there's a hot new rookie in town, and he's on the Mariners! We will watch his career with great interest. Also, Ohtanii continues to be very, very special.
DEBATE TIME: We've brought it up before, but it's time for some proper arguments. The extra-inning rule: good or bad? Join us as we discuss the rationale behind Manfred's latest scheme and how it changes the game!

THIS SEASON IS SOMETHING ELSE!
The FCD standings have changed AGAIN! How have the offense-less WhiteSox found their way to the top? And how can we forget how Jared Walsh singlehandedly defeated the Dodgers, sending them to 4th on our table. Will the reigning champs find their groove?
You would think it would be crazy for there to be another no-hitter for us to cover, and you're right! There were TWO! In a WEEK! The Orioles and Reds celebrated the 3rd and 4th no-hitters of the season, but should there be a 5th considered? In light of Bumgarner's feat, tune in for our debate on whether or not the 7 inning game no-no's should count officially. Lifetime statistic, or mere notable achievement? And don't miss our predictions for what's next for recently DFA'd legend of the game, Albert Pujols.
How many more no-hitters will we see in 2021?

1. Month. Gone.
Boy oh boy have the FCD standings changed (as of April 26)! How about that 13 game win streak from the Athletics to push them to all the way to second-place? What happened to the Reds? It seems the Tigers are back to business as usual (a.k.a., not much business).
MLB has been DELIVERING this season. Another no-hitter, homerun breakouts, and heated rivalries. Tune in as we unpack the latest surrounding our 7 teams and more, including an in-depth re-telling of THAT epic A's-Twins game. Best. Game. Ever. (Unless you're David). Will Blankenhorn return to The Show?
What was your highlight of the first month?

2 Weeks In.
The standings (as of 12 April) are all over the place. Yankees third from the bottom? The Reds flying high at second? Something isn't right...
The first two weeks of MLB 2021 had everything. Rookie standouts (Baddoo, anyone?), blown saves (R.I.P. Twins), and a franchise-first no-hitter. It's still early, but all signs point towards another fantastic, record-breaking season! Tune in for our perspective of the first two weeks, including disappointed takes from David and Barry about their teams' closers. Meanwhile, Paski was just happy to get a win, and Jacob enjoyed the barrage of runs produced by Cincinnati.
How's your team doing so far?
[Recorded on April 12, 2021]. There were some technical difficulties with recording, so some of the audio is of lesser quality.

BASEBALL. IS. BAAAAAAACK.
And what better way to prepare for Opening Day than with a heap of bold and boring predictions that are almost surely going to be proved wrong?
After an eventful but teasing Spring Training, Jacob, David, Noah, Paski, and Caleb put on their psychic caps and take on the biggest awards and title predictions of the upcoming season: Division Champs (including our own FCD standings), MVP, Cy Young, ROTY, and the World Series matchup and winner. Will Trout regain his MVP crown...or is someone else, according to David, going to steal it? Which rookies do we have our eyes on? Tune in for a fun debate that is surely going to end up with all of us wrong come October!
Who are your predicted winners?

What is your favorite MLB stadium?
As we keep an eye on Spring Training and wait for Opening Day, why not rank all 30 MLB stadiums? After all, there are some truly fantastic parks out there and some not-so-great ones (sorry Oakland fans). Tune in for an unscripted, lively debate as we go through each team's home ground, from worst to best. The winner may surprise you.. (or not).
Do you agree with our picks?

Is baseball becoming more exciting or getting worse?
The wild changes of 2020 have brought about some new, possibly permanent changes to the way the sport is played. Is the removal of a universal DH really beneficial to the game's excitement? (Spoiler alert: no). How about 7-inning double headers and a starting runner on second in extra innings? Tune in for our thoughts on these changes and what they mean for how baseball is played!
Featuring an epic screw-Manfred rant by Barry!
Which rules do you agree with or not?

Bauer has a home!
...As do many other free-agents. Of course, we had to record an emergency segment for the biggest acquisition of the year, so tune in for a trade-spectacular episode where we discuss the all the biggest and best moves of the offseason so far! The Dodgers, Padres, and Mets seem like sure offseason winners, but who else may have gotten a steal?
Including a surprise LIVE reaction to a trade that happened as we were recording!
Up next, spring training and new rule decisions!
Who were your winners and losers of the offseason?

New Year, new episode!
Welcome to the FCD trade talks, aka the Warm Oven (not the Hot Stove). The baseball offseason has been relatively quiet lately, but that doesn't mean we can't talk about trades and rumors! Who went where and why? [*This was recorded before the newest trades, specifically the Padres' acquisitions of Snell and Darvish. More to come in future episodes!]
Speaking of rumors, what do we think of the supposed removal of the DH in the NL, and the extra-inning rules? Will they really make baseball more "exciting"?
Logos and jerseys. You see them all the time, but do you ever stop to think and, maybe, rank them? Let us do it for you! Tune in as the crew debates the best and worse jerseys and (hat) logos in the game. (Spoiler: You'd never expect these teams to win anything...)
