  • Destiny Draft 2026, Round 6 (feat. Sofia)
    2026/08/03

    Destiny Draft is back for Round 6, and this week Sofia jumps in as the listener pick.

    First, the boys recap Round 5, including Rolsey’s performance for the ages, though Eric still can’t quite bring himself to give a dead man his flowers. From there, Sofia tells us who her favourite Italian baseball team is, which raises more questions than answers, before giving the entire pack pull a proper vibe check.

    Spoiler alert: it is not a good pull.

    There are prayers, superstition picks, questionable logic, and a whole lot of hoping the baseball gods are feeling generous. Eric also fails to bring the usual cheese and wine, instead showing up with some weird Mediterranean nuts in Sofia’s honour before pouring himself a glass anyway.

    And with Sofia and Spoon in the same room, things get especially tense when Sofia may or may not choose a Dodger, potentially sending Spoon to a separate bedroom for the next two weeks.

    Head to BaseballExpats.com, click Content, and you’ll find Spoon’s MLB Pick Tracker there. It’ll be updated daily, so keep checking in throughout the week.

    The boys talk through the new tracker, check in on Destiny Draft, and tease a few exciting things coming to the website before Spoon gives his best bets for the weekend.

  • #089 - Trade Deadline Special: Mead to Boston, Women's World Cup Qualifiers, and will Rolsey actually win a round?
    2026/07/28

    It’s our Trade Deadline Special, but first we start with the world game.

    The boys recap the first qualifier of the Women’s Baseball World Cup, including Australia’s valiant effort to finish second, then look ahead to the second qualifier coming later in April.

    Speaking of Australians, Curtis Mead was traded from Washington to Boston over the weekend, which is massive news. We break down the move, what it could mean for Mead, and breathe a small sigh of relief after his hand injury in his first game with the Red Sox appears to be less scary than it first looked.

    Then we get into the deadline properly, bouncing around the league with different scenarios, names, fits, buyers, sellers, and whatever else the trade rumour machine decides to throw at us.

    We also check in on Destiny Draft, which might be tracking toward the highest-scoring round of the season, before Spoon closes us out with his best bets for the Tuesday slate in the U.S.

  • Weekend Best Bets (feat. player walkouts & trade deadline teases)
    2026/07/24

    Rolsey and Spoon are holding down the Weekend Pickoff with no Eric, and Rolsey is not in a great place.

    The Cardinals have been awful, the Wests Tigers are in the news for all the wrong reasons, and that sends the boys into a chat about players who have walked out on teams or flat out refused to play.

    From there, we check in on Destiny Draft, tease a bit of trade deadline chatter, and hopefully set up a proper trade deadline special on Tuesday if Eric is back with us.

    We also update the Women’s Baseball World Cup standings and look ahead to the weekend schedule before Spoon closes us out with his best bets, plus a few other MLB plays he’s eyeing across the weekend.

  • #088 - X-Trail Trauma, Injury Rabbit Holes, and the Women’s Baseball World Cup
    2026/07/22

    Eric starts the episode by unpacking the financial trauma of getting his Nissan X-Trail serviced, which may or may not actually be finished, while Spoon brings an alarming number of puns to the table.

    From there, we talk about the unfortunate injury to Joshua Kuroda-Grauer, which sends us down a rabbit hole of strange baseball injuries from years gone by, and may or may not become a future theme team.

    We also recap Destiny Draft, including the pitching stocks of Chase Burns and Jacob Misiorowski, who haven’t quite fired the way we expected, even if there are reasons behind it.

    Then the boys preview the upcoming group stage of the Women’s Baseball World Cup before Spoon closes us out with his best tips for the week.

    2026/07/17

    The boys are all back for the Weekend Pickoff as we take the temperature on Spoon’s preseason bets heading into the second half of the MLB season.

    After that, Spoon closes us out with his best bets for the weekend.

    We’ll be back Monday for Destiny Draft Round 5, then back to business as usual on Tuesday.
