Hi everybody! So, and I had a little spring training talk! I don’t even remember all the stuff we talked about, I know we talked some Dodgers, some Orioles, some free agents … but, whatever, it’s always a blast to chat baseball with Molly. We’ll try to do a couple of more of these during spring training. If you have questions, leave them in the comments and we’ll try to get to them. And it goes without saying that you should be subscribed to Molly’s newsletter. It’s great on all topics, but particularly on the Dodgers, and that team is going to be utterly fascinating all year long. This is a ..read more

Well, we’re a little more than a month into the season, so Molly Knight (check out her awesome Substack) and I go all around the league to talk about: * The goofy things happening in St. Louis * The Dodgers’ paternity leave parade * The pure awesomeness of Ronald Acuña * The struggles of Juan Soto (though he went 4-for-4 on Tuesday!) * The hope that that the Pirates can somehow keep defying gravity * The more realistic hope that the Orioles can keep defying gravity And much more!

Molly Knight and I are back — talking rule changes, talking Andrew Painter, talking Manny Machado, just talking ball. As always, I cannot more strongly recommend signing up for Molly’s Substack The Long Game, where she talks about baseball, creativity and mental health … and plenty of other things as well. She’s the best. Get full access to JoeBlogs at joeblogs.joeposnanski.com/subscribe ..read more

Joe and Molly are talking World Series again with the wonderful Ellen Adair as we head into Game 6 of the World Series. We talk about what went wrong for the Phillies in Games 4 and 5, how they can turn it around in Game 6, how important it is that they get something out of pitcher Zack Wheeler, and what sort of chaos to expect if the series goes to seven games.

OK, Molly Knight and I are back talking some baseball — and this time we are joined but the incredibly talented and altogether delightful Ellen Adair in the moments before she headed out to her first ever live Phillies World Series game. We’re talking about Brandon Marsh’s hair, we’re talking about Rob Thompson’s mojo, we’re talking about whether Game 1 was more exciting for Ellen than her wedding. Fun!

Let me tell you what a trooper Molly Knight is. She has been deathly ill the last couple of weeks dealing with Covid. Like SUPER sick — can’t get out of bed sick. But she texted me after Vin Scully passed away and said we HAD to do a podcast. So we recruited Mike Schur and talked a whole lot about Vin Scully … and the Dodgers … and the Juan Soto trade … and the sad existence of the Angels … and how much better peanut M&Ms are than regular M&Ms … and so much more! Shortly after we did this, Molly had to check into a hospital for severe dehydration. She’s much better now. But I gotta tel ..read more

This is fun — Molly Knight and I talk about our five “favorite” baseball stories of the year so far. Only they aren’t really our favorites since we HAD to talk about the Yankees. I mean, the Yankees are overshadowing everything else in baseball so far. So we do talk about the Yankees … and we also talk about some of our favorite stuff like Byron Buxton, the Joc Pederson-Tommy Pham thing that never ends, the Phillies’ and Braves’ winning streaks, etc. Get full access to JoeBlogs at joeblogs.joeposnanski.com/subscribe ..read more

Jackie Stiles is one of the greatest college basketball players ever — she set the NCAA scoring record while playing at what was then Southwest Missouri State and most of you, surely, will remember her team’s extraordinary run to the Final Four that year. She is also an amazing person. I’ve known her now for closing on 25 years, and followed her from when she was just a kid in Claflin, Kansas, making 1,000 shots a day, through her incredible college career, through her injury-plagued pro career and into her post-career life as she has searched to find the person she is without basketball. On M ..read more
