MLB The Show podcast Charlie O:

#1 The Atlanta Braves reinstated left hand pitcher Chris Sale off the 60 day IL. Sale started Saturday night against the Philadelphia Phillies. Sale had been suffering from a fractured left rib cage June when he dived for a ground ball. Sale had pitched 4.2 inning of relief in his last rehab start in Triple A last week.

#2 Walker Buehler who was the cat’s meow during his days with the Los Angeles Dodgers and who got the final out in last season’s World Series and was suppose to be the star pitcher for the Boston Red Sox this season but was released Friday. The Sox said he wasn’t able to help in their playoff push in the bullpen. Buehler signed a $21.05 million contract and went 7-7 ERA 5.45. Charlie do you see someone picking up Buehler?

#3 The New York Mets Jonah Tong made his MLB debut going five innings and allowing one earned run striking out six. They also were swinging the bats with six home runs and set a team record for most home runs in a game in their 19-9 win over the Miami Marlins on Friday night.

#4 Documents from Pete Rose’s deceased bookie Ronald Peters shows that Peters ran a bookmaking and narcotics operation. Some of the information in the file was in the 1989 Dowd report by MLB. The documents focus on Rose’s deceased bookie, Ronald Peters, and a mid-1980s investigation into narcotics and bookmaking operations that Peters ran. Some of the information in the released Rose file appears to have been covered in the 1989 Dowd report, commissioned by Major League Baseball. MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred removed the lifetime ban and Rose is eligible to get elected into the Hall of Fame can he make it?

#5 Cleveland Guardians general manager Chris Antonetti said that the recent decision between the Guardians and Carlos Santana to leave was between both sides. Santana had asked for an opportunity to play for another team and was granted waivers on Thursday. Antonetti said that the Guardians are much appreciated of Santana’s time with Cleveland.

That’s Amaruy News and Commentary podcast:

#1 Amaury, Los Angeles Dodgers two way star Shohei Ohtani threw a 22 pitch bullpen session one of the pitches was a 97 mph fast ball how close does he look to returning to the mound.

#2 The Dodgers who had been struggling losing four of their last ten games are showing signs of improvement with a 7-2 win over the Cleveland Guardians at Progressive Field in Cleveland. Ohtani and Dodger pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto were both key players in this game. Yamamoto pitched six innings giving up two hits. Ohtani hit a home run for his second straight game for a league leading 19 homers.

#3 Former Dodger Chris Taylor reached a one year agreement at the MLB minimum salary with the Los Angeles Angels on Monday. Taylor started in centerfield on Monday night against the New York Yankees and batted in the eighth hole.

#4 The Detroit Tigers Tarik Skubal’s strike to balls ratio is 82 Ks to 3 Base on balls. Skubal is being compared to former Detroit Tiger Justin Verlander who was unstoppable during his Tigers days. Skubal on Sunday pitched a complete 5-0 shutout against the Cleveland Guardians in Detroit. Skubal has movement on his pitches and was dealing.

#5 Boston Red Sox pitcher Walker Buehler has something to say about a pitch that he said was a strike. The reply did show the ball landed in the box. none the less Walker argued the ball was a strike against New York Mets hitter Juan Soto. Walker was ejected from the game and manager Alex Cora came out and had his say as well.

On That’s Amaury News and Commentary podcast:

#1 Former Atlanta Braves great Rico Carty has passed away at the age of 85. Carty played in the majors in 1963 the year he broke in with the Milwaukee Braves before retiring in 1979 with the Toronto Blue Jays. In 1970 Carty led the National League in hitting with a .366. The Dominican paper Listin Diario said Carty’s friend informed the paper of Carty’s death at 85 years old.

#2 Camden Yards and the Baltimore Orioles have announced that they have moved in the fences 20 feet in for the 2025 season. In 2022 the Orioles moved the fences back something that made the pitching staff appreciate. Prior to the 2022 season the hitters loved to tee off at Camden and in 2025 they can love that opportunity again.

#3 The San Francisco Giants have signed outfielder Mike Yastrzemski to a one year deal for the 2025 season at $9.25 million. The Giants also tendered contracts for first baseman LeMonte Wade, closer Camilo Doval, and releiver Tyler Rogers. How important is it for the Giants to secure those players.

#4 Sacramento A’s manager Mark Kotsay said that free agent and former Los Angeles Dodger Walker Buehler declined to sign with the A’s citing that he didn’t not want to play in Sacramento a triple A minor league park. After playing in the number 2 TV market in baseball Buehler wanted to stay clear of Sacramento which he considers a minor league park.

#5 Also MLB players have indicated that they do not like the idea of playing in Sacramento because of it’s small space, that Sacramento is just a temporary home for the A’s, the clubhouses for the A’s and visiting teams are being built as a two story facility, there is no tunnel from the dugouts to the clubhouse for the players like other big league parks. The only consolation the players got out of going to Sacramento they will play on natural turf as opposed to artificial turf.
