Episode 458: PCA 4 MVP 2026-08-19 23:41:00

Episode 458: Stories are brewing all across the major leagues.

The Ketel Marte no-show situation is drawing eyes from across the league. Jared, Jay Hay, Dallas, and Tyler chat about the awkward situation for the Diamondbacks, give their thoughts on the “knee injury,” and project what this could mean for Marte going forward.

They also dive deep into Pete Crow-Armstrong’s absolute heater that he has found himself on and the “stranglehold” he has on the MVP race versus Shohei Ohtani. The Mariners’ embarrassing 22-0 loss left Dallas, Tyler, and Jay Hay questioning how the Mariners fell so far off from last year’s success and who will be on the chopping block as a result of this disappointing season.

Don’t forget to stick around for BID Feud with special guest Eric Hubbs! The Barstool Yankees blogger joins the program to reunite with his old friend Jared as they face off in what was one of the most dramatic and closely contested Feud matches we’ve had all year.
