Today on Bleav in San Diego Baseball, Alex Miniak and three-time All-Star Heath Bell dive headfirst into the chaos of October. From the Cubs’ Michael Busch and his hot streak to Philly’s Orion Kirkering and his heartbreaking miscue, the guys break down every twist of the NLDS and ALDS.

They also react to Nike and Fanatics’ list of the top 20 MLB jerseys sold this year — and yes, both Fernando Tatis Jr. and Manny Machado made the cut. Alex and Heath talk about why fans collect jerseys and how, sometimes, it’s about more than just the name on the back.

To top it off, the Savannah Bananas are officially coming back to Petco Park in March 2026, and Heath shares inside stories from Banana Ball’s rise — plus details on the two new teams joining the fold.
