• Early look at All-Star Game ballots, what’s up with the Braves & College World Series updates

  With the Midsummer Classic set to take place in Atlanta at Truist Park on July 15th, today is the day that All-Star Game ballots have dropped—and it’s up to the public to make their choices. While some players might be locks to start the game (looking at you, Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani), there are a few sports that could see some interesting position battles. Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman go down the ballots for the American and National League squads, making their picks for who they think should be voted in as starters. They wonder if Juan Soto can beat out an impressive trio of NL outfielders, why Dave Roberts could be selective with his Los Angeles Dodgers players and whether Rafael Devers even bothers to bring a glove with him to Atlanta. Later on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, the guys examine the weird season that the Atlanta Braves are having—and why it’s oddly similar to the Boston Red Sox—before going around the league to discuss all the injury news surrounding the Houston Astros and New York Mets, among other teams. They close the show with the latest news surrounding the Men’s and Women’s College World Series.(3:38) - AL All-Star starting squad(20:54) - NL All-Star starting squad(40:29) - What’s up with the Braves?(56:45) - BBQ Boo Boo List updates(1:07:26) - College World Series news  Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:🎧 Apple Podcasts🎧 Spotify🖥️ YouTube📢 Check out the Yahoo Sports podcast networkAnd check out Jake, Jordan & the show on X or Instagram:🌤️ @CespedesBBQ: https://bsky.app/profile/cespedesbbq.bsky.social🐦 @CespedesBBQ: https://x.com/CespedesBBQ📷 @CespedesBBQ: https://www.instagram.com/cespedesbbq⚾ @Jake_Mintz: https://x.com/Jake_Mintz🧢 @J_Shusterman: https://x.com/j_shusterman_

• Is the Red Sox season already over? Plus, Dodgers make a trade & the Good, the Bad, the Uggla

  The Boston Red Sox are 27-31 with May coming to a close and what was a season that started with optimism is beginning to sink into a sour reality as the season pushes past its one-third mark. Jake Mintz & Jordan Shusterman talk about Boston's floundering 2025 campaign, the issues with roster construction and how manager Alex Cora isn't entirely to blame.Can the Red Sox pull out of their early-season hole? Will fortunes change after their first series against the New York Yankees next week? Only time will tell, but it's hard to be optimistic about their chances this season sitting at 4th in the AL East.Meanwhile out west, the Los Angeles Dodgers have made a trade! The guys explain the reasoning behind acquiring Cincinnati Reds reliever Alexis Diaz for prospect Mike Villani. Diaz, who was an All-Star just two seasons ago has regressed significantly, but with the injuries throughout LA's pitching staff, the move made sense for both sides.Closing out the episode, Jake and Jordan dive further into the mechanics of the bullpen phone before closing out the week with a new edition of The Good, The Bad & The Uggla where pitching injuries reign supreme, the MLB partners with the AUSL & the Miami Marlins have a new baserunning tactic in the minor leagues.(2:25) - Are the Boston Red Sox cooked?(22:15) - Dodgers trade for Alexis Diaz(27:40) - Previewing Dodgers/Yankees rematch series(36:40) - More bullpen phone questions(41:30) - The Good, The Bad, The Uggla Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:🎧 Apple Podcasts🎧 Spotify🖥️ YouTube📢 Check out the Yahoo Sports podcast networkAnd check out Jake, Jordan & the show on X or Instagram:🌤️ @CespedesBBQ: https://bsky.app/profile/cespedesbbq.bsky.social🐦 @CespedesBBQ: https://x.com/CespedesBBQ📷 @CespedesBBQ: https://www.instagram.com/cespedesbbq⚾ @Jake_Mintz: https://x.com/Jake_Mintz🧢 @J_Shusterman: https://x.com/j_shusterman_
