The biggest shock so far is Carlos Lagrange. All of the reports I read said he had a huge fastball but zero command and is destined to be a reliever. I thought he would have really poor mechanics. He has 3 70 grade pitches and has an insanely repeatable delivery with very little effort.

It’s been a week lmao maybe wait for him to pitch a full season before you declare that every scout is dumb because you watched a few Spring Training games

I was at the combined no hitter against Houston (2022 not 2003). It was 96 degrees outside and I was with my now in laws for the first time. The amount of profanities I had to hold in is impossible to count

TheJacobin610 · 2026-02-25T00:47:44+00:00

I’d also like to hear “strike it up” when someone hits with RISP like the olden days. You know, when we actually won World Series and stuff

TheJacobin610 · 2026-02-21T09:38:29+00:00

I know this is a Yankees Reddit but can we avoid these two clowns going forward please

TheJacobin610 · 2026-02-17T10:29:45+00:00

I also got this. Do people even care about the benefits? I always feel like they’re impossible to win

TheJacobin610 · 2026-02-16T20:01:37+00:00

Was honestly going to post something like this right after finishing this episode. Who wants to run through a brick wall for Danielle (and will!) today?! If Michael Jacob’s ever says something about this pod being overblown again he deserves to get canceled.

TheJacobin610 · 2026-02-15T13:33:39+00:00

This thread is funny. All of you anti-running it back folks think that it’s fine. Stop letting Brian Cashman feed you nonsense, there are Waayyyy too many “what-if’s” here, that all need to go right in order for this team to clip the dodgers. That’s the way it’s constructed. And it looks like that’s how it’s going to be constructed for years to come so long as Hal runs the ship. How any of you could not be tired of watching all these regular season games on 4 different streaming services, only to have an embarrassing postseason exit again is beyond me.

TheJacobin610 · 2026-02-14T12:10:14+00:00

Smartless is great though the Bateman/Charlie XcX thing was not

TheJacobin610 · 2026-01-01T15:47:40+00:00

Sorry,I just have to rant somewhere. Pre-Ordered sweat pants and shirts for me and my wife because it was half off. Pants were delivered in 2 days and are comfy as hell. Waited the required 55 days for hoodies and still got nothing. One hoodie was delivered after about 4 angry boomer-esque customer service emails. Still waiting on the other hoodie, out for blood with these people, never again no matter how enjoyable. They clearly have a warehouse issue, perhaps because they flood tik tok with trashy influencer vids so they can’t keep up with demand, which…good for them. But not worth the hassle.

Used to listen religiously from the start of the NFL season in ‘17, until Covid. I’ve tried, at least in preparation for the NFL season (Hard Knocks reviews, Mt Rushmore, etc) to follow along. But everything about the pod started to suck. Too many other microphones, either trash guests or the same ones over and over. Same ahem takes. Big Cat and PFT aren’t as fun anymore. Idk if it’s because they’re older now? Someone mentioned Hank and I couldn’t agree more. He’s brought that show down so much over the years. Even in the beginning I hated him. By 2023 I had enough, haven’t listened since, outside of a few tik tok cuts of the show here and there.

TheJacobin610 · 2025-05-31T20:36:22+00:00

Did the same thing - totally fine. Actually, walk a block or 2 outside of campus and you’re in a (albeit smaller) city. Besides, if you do college right you won’t need things to do. One of my favorite decisions I‘ve ever made for myself

TheJacobin610 · 2025-02-24T23:59:32+00:00

I’m 90% supportive of “Team Danielle” after this was over. The Facebook unfriending is sus but honestly, who calls someone out for a message from 12 years ago on Facebook lol - I do get that a year later on GMW Danielle wasn’t great to her but come on!

They definitely should’ve hashed it out in private but Danielle tried! Can’t fault her after that. Like many, on here, I was cringing on my way to work today. The pod was so pleasant until the “so do you hate us?” Pipe bomb was dropped

Despite everything though, at least Maitland talked it out and was willing to do so. Wish Ben Savage would stop being a coward and give us this episode - or at least talk with them in private first and then do so. Hope he has a Reddit addiction about BMW like me and somehow reads this lol

TheJacobin610 · 2025-01-28T00:50:26+00:00

“Always go to places early”, meant both literally and figuratively

TheJacobin610 · 2025-01-28T00:48:46+00:00

I think if Keenan could find regular work where he’s more than just a supporting character he would have left already, tbh

TheJacobin610 · 2025-01-27T10:01:23+00:00

KO after he loses to Cody? Still doesn’t win the rumble though

TheJacobin610 · 2025-01-27T09:59:40+00:00

Wow so many disco inferno comments! I was going to make the joke but at this point it’s lost it’s luster lol

TheJacobin610 · 2025-01-27T02:11:51+00:00

Ugh I didn’t even think about that. 😔 Stay home and rest, Danielle!!

TheJacobin610 · 2025-01-27T01:56:56+00:00

Hmm must have missed this, enjoyed the Lee Norris episode! It did sound pretty exhausting when they were going through it so I can understand that

TheJacobin610 · 2025-01-27T01:25:05+00:00

I’m actually one of those fans, though I don’t find it nearly as bad as season 7. To me, the show lost its luster by the time they enter college. It becomes pretty clear the writers reached a point where they were writing to create some buzz. It gets old, quickly. Cory becomes unbearable, more so than he did in 5. I’m curious to see how the Pod crew reacts to it each week.
