This week on The Diamond Duo Podcast, Tom and Tony take a moment to step back and thank all you wonderful people who have been with us through one year of the show! Whether you've been with us for just one episode or all 41, thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts and we can't wait for many more years to come. Following these sentimentalities, the two dive into some seismic rule changes coming to the game in 2023. The significance of a pitch clock, the banning of the shift, and larger bases

These young prospects include Gunnar Henderson and his electric start in Baltimore, Corbin Carroll and his contributions to a surging Diamondbacks club (weird, right?), and even the impossible - the Yankees calling up top three prospect in the system, Oswald Peraza, to try and turn the team's fortunes around. Speaking of the Yankees, the two rebound from

This week on The Diamond Duo Podcast, Tom and Tony brush aside their analytical arguments in favor of the cries of an unhappy fanbase. That's right. They're tackling the Yankees recent struggles. They discuss everything from the lackluster offense to the plethora of injuries to the main reasons as to why the Bronx Bombers have collapsed so hard. There's witty banter and only a modest amount of aimless whining so this is a discussion you won't want to miss. Hey, speaking of aimless whining, Chris

This week on The Diamond Duo Podcast, Tom and Tony revisit the All Star Game as the final rosters were recently revealed. The two review who will be starting, who will be a reserve, and who was wrongfully left out - trust us there were plenty in the latter category. Apart from that, they revive the Around The Horn segment to ceremoniously laud the hottest teams in baseball: the Orioles and the Mariners (didn't think we'd be saying that in July). Conversely, this comes with the added pleasure of

This week on The Diamond Duo Podcast, Tom and Tony open things with bad news on the injury front as two MVP favorites in Mookie Betts and Manny Machado both got hurt this past week. Though things are look up for the two, the implications in the NL West division race could be massive in their absence. Unfortunately, things would not look up for Anthony Rendon and Hyun Jin Ryu, both of whom will see their seasons ended due to injuries. This will certainly set the Blue Jays on the hunt for another

This week on The Diamond Duo Podcast, Tom and Tony get flashbacks to this year's Oscars as an altercation between Tommy Pham and Joc Pederson turned (slightly) violent before a Reds-Giants game. The two analyze the situation and have a laugh once it's discovered what this is all about (spoiler alert: it isn't much). The focus is then shifted to the White Sox making a smart organizational decision (for once) and DFA'ing struggling starter, Dallas Keuchel. In the days since this was recorded, Keuchel

First is former first rounder, Reid Detmers who became the youngest player in franchise history to toss a no-hitter, doing so in his 11h career start! Second is Shohei Ohtani (ever heard of him?) who clobbered his 100th career home run, becoming only the third Japanese-born player (Hideki Matsui & Ichiro Suzuki) to to reach that many! Along with

This week on The Diamond Duo Podcast, Tom and Tony plunge into the unforgiving wasteland that is MLB umpiring. They take an especially close look at one recent incident where an umpire looked for a reason to eject Madison Bumgarner by gazing longingly into his eyes. The duo follows this bout of strangeness up by (*gasp*) praising the New York Mets! This praise comes from their release of struggling veteran Robinson Cano and their 6-run comeback in the 9th inning to utterly embarrass the Phillies
