Baseball is Dead
Episode 438: Halo Blues 2026-06-29 17:42:00Episode 438: Baseball is Dead has risen from the grave to deliver your weekend recap of all the action around Major League Baseball.
Jared, Dallas, Jay Hay, and Tyler kick things off by chatting about America’s 250th birthday and teasing a special patriotic edition of Drafts coming soon to the Baseball Is Dead Patreon.
Perry Minasian’s time in Anaheim has finally come to an end. The guys break down what a disaster the Angels have been both on and off the field for the past decade, with Jay Hay making the case that it might be the single worst job an up-and-coming baseball front office executive could take.
The firings continue across the league as the New York Mets let go of manager Carlos Mendoza. The crew also reacts to the latest Juan Soto speculation and the clubhouse culture surrounding baseball’s highest-paid player.
Grab a plate of Jay Hay’s hot, fresh, award-winning nugs and get ready for a banger of a holiday week.
