Description: Episode 501: Welcome back an old friend of the podcast. Jayson Stark returns after his debut in 2018! The guys and Jayson talk about the state of baseball with the looming lockout, the date when the season becomes in jeopardy, and Jayson’s favorite moments of the 2026 postseason. The Seattle Mariners hired a new manager to lead their organization, and it has led to fierce debate. Should teams value major league playing experience highly over candidates who haven’t made the big leagues but are excellent communicators and stat nerds? Qualifying offers extended and a big-money team pull out of the Tarik Skubal sweepstakes. Join us at the Baseball Is Dead Patreon for more baseball content throughout the year!
