Down The Line

I Remember Him is a podcast where one of us chooses an MLB player from the past and dive into his Baseball Reference, Wikipedia, and whatever other information we can come across online. This week's episode: a Cardinals World Series hero.

We vote on who we think should be voted into the Hall of Fame on this year's ballot, while diving deep into the Steroid Era, relief pitchers in the Hall of Fame, the Hall of Very Good, and laugh at the fact that A.J. Pierzynski made it on the ballot.

We return from a tough playoff loss to preview and predict what we think the Yankees should (and should not) do this offseason. Ranging from the historic free agent shortstop market to upgrades at 1B, CF, and Catcher, as well as what could be done to improve an already solid pitching rotation. 

We break down the AL Wild Card game between the Yankees & Red Sox that resulted in Cole being yanked early, a non-existent lineup outside of Stanton, and another Phil Nevin game-altering send. Pain.

Yankees/Red Sox at Fenway on Tuesday, Dodgers/Cardinals from LA on Wednesday. Cole, Eovaldi, Scherzer, Wainwright. One game, win or go home. The guys break down both matchups as playoff baseball officially begins.

The guys get you ready for the last week of the MLB regular season as playoff season rapidly approaches. The Yankees sweep the Red Sox at Fenway, the AL Wild Card race is heating up, the Cardinals may never lose again & more.

This week we wear black to the Yankees' funeral, get frustrated by the Cardinals sneaking their way into the playoffs, and figure out who the NL MVP is.

We cover the Yankees inability to get figured out by us, how the Blue Jays have all of a sudden become the best team to ever play baseball, a Robbie Ray Tight Pants Theory emerges, and the St. Louis Cardinals aren't even a dark horse...they're an invisible. Plus, the Giants and Dodgers clinch playoff spots and Max Scherzer hits 3K Strikeouts.

We cover arguably the craziest thing that has happened during this bizarre regular season for the Mets, the Javy Baez boo quote. We also discuss the Yankees - Athletics series, and what the AL East might look like after the Rays - Red Sox series.

We cover the Yankees winning streak, Miguel Cabrera's 500th Home Run, the Mets falling out of contention, and even when we try to insult the Padres we high-key praised their team. Listen to find out how.

We cover the Field of Dreams game, the Yankees/White Sox series, and discuss the rest of the MLB with a new segment called Good Team or Good Streak.

We cover the Yankees, Rays, and Blue Jays recent surge in the standings, while the Mets and Red Sox have fallen into a skid. We also talk what the deadline meant to some team's sense of urgency. And of course, the Field of Dreams game set to be played this week had us giving our takes on our favorite baseball movies.

HVT (@redsoxandstuff) joins the show to cover the bizarre Yankees versus Red Sox series, the upcoming one this weekend, as well as what both teams should be thinking about at the trade deadline. 

Mets fan Mike Walker joins the show to discuss the state of the New York baseball after an unusual first half of the season for both the Yankees and Mets.
