Hour 1: The New Evil Empire: Why the Dodgers Are the Yankees of 2026!
Podcast: The Carton Show with Craig Carton & Chris McMoniglePublished On: Thu Dec 18 2025
Description: Marc Malusis doesn't hold back as he fills in for BT & Sal, delivering a scathing indictment of the New York Yankees' "passive" offseason. He torches Hal Steinbrenner for complaining about the "hardships" of team ownership while the Los Angeles Dodgers have officially usurped the "Evil Empire" throne by spending aggressively to win. Malusis argues that the Yankees’ reliance on "October is a crapshoot" is a failed philosophy and questions if injuries are just a convenient excuse for a roster that lacks fundamental soundness. The heat continues as he pivots to Queens, discussing Pete Alonso’s departure to Baltimore. Malusis claims anyone paying attention should have seen the move coming, as David Stearns clearly favors "grinders" over high-priced stars. From Anthony Volpe’s offensive struggles to the Mets' pitching lab failures, Marc demands that both New York organizations stop looking over their shoulders at analytics and start looking in the mirror.
