From the makers of Major League A*Holes: IN THE HOLE Podcast comes a shortcast highlighting a particularly reprehensible (or just plain dumb) behavior each week from across all of Major League Baseball.
While Rob Manfred is an easy target and always a worthy candidate for our Asshole of the Week dishonor, he is merely a meat shield to absorb vitriol for the true villains of MLB's $hit$how To End All $hit$hows.

Petco Park Lawnjobber is an Asshole
Perhaps set off by #MLB's infuriating lockout situation, some rando broke into Petco Park with his SUV and gave the #Padres grounds crew a shit ton of extra work and earned our Asshole of the Week dishonor.

Hypocritical HOF Voters are Assholes
Every Hall of Fame voter who holds possible PED use against some players but not Big Papi is an asshole.

2021 Asshole of the Year: The New York Mets
Dick pix, sexual harassment, mascot jersey controversies, premature celebrations, rats vs. raccoons, thumbs down, lost earrings, DWIs, social media temper tantrums, and outrageous spending were just some of the highlights of a season for the ages for your New York Mets. #LGFM

Every MLB Owner is an Asshole
[NOTE: Apologies for Smitty’s shitty audio quality as we had some technical difficulties we were unaware of at the time of recording. We’ll do better next time.]
December 2nd, 2021 is a day that will live in baseball infamy as 26 years of labor peace was broken when all 30 MLB owners chose to walk away from the bargaining table and put the entire baseball world in limbo.

Cleveland Guardians (not the roller derby team) are Assholes
Not only is the new Cleveland Guardians identity boring, lame, and poorly executed, but it was also RIPPED OFF from an amateur roller derby team! Not properly vetting the new name and then throwing a few dollars on the ground at the last minute to make them go away makes the franchise valued at over $1.1 BILLION look like a bunch of assholes.

Rootin' Ron Darling is an Asshole
Ron Darling has always been annoying and uninsightful. A few years ago he even threw his former Mets teammates under the bus in order to sell a few more copies of his book. And now he’s openly rooting for one team during a national broadcast of a playoff game. Congratulations, Ron — you’ve checked every box to be considered an asshole.

Surprise! Jim Kaat Got a Little Racist
MLB Network thought it would be a good idea to have three old white guys with a combined age of 216-years old in the booth to broadcast ALDS Game 2. It didn’t go well.

Conor McGregor & Cubs Are Assholes
Conor McGregor‘s embarrassing first pitch and embarrassing 7th inning stretch weren’t nearly as embarrassing as the #Cubs stooping to a level where they gave that piece of shit (https://fansided.com/2019/10/19/alleged-sexual-assault-charges-are-the-latest-in-a-long-list-of-conor-mcgregors-criminal-history/) their platform to shill his swill. #CubTogether

Ryan Braun Will Always be an Asshole
Congratulations to Ryan Braun for finally coming to grips with reality and acknowledging baseball has no interest in him any longer. His self-serving retirement announcement only reminded us all of his lifetime of achievement in assholery.

The New York Mets Are All Assholes
With fans fighting players, players foolishly fighting back, the front office and owner adding fuel to the fire, and then the GM getting a goddamn DWI, it’s hard to imagine how the Mets could’ve made themselves look like bigger assholes.

Jake Arrieta Goes Out An Asshole
Jake Arrieta could’ve gone out a Cubs hero. Instead, he stuck around long enough to reveal he was a “surly, selfish, science-denying tool.”

The Whole A’s/Oakland Relationship is an Asshole
It’s officially time for the A’s and the City of Oakland to break the fuck up — everyone is sick of the goddamn drama.

Absent All-Star Astros Are All Assholes
Jose Altuve, Carlos Correa, Michael Brantley, and Ryan Pressly all found ways (with varying levels of credibility) to weasel out of appearing at the All-Star Game.

Trevor Bauer is an Asshole
The disturbing sexual assault charges facing Trevor Bauer, the deafening silence from his Dodgers teammates and organization, and the absolute bare minimum of support from the Players’ Association are all adding up to what might become a permanent Bauer Outage.

Josh Donaldson is an Asshole
In what played out like a stupid high school spat full of insecure macho posturing where everyone involved made themselves look like fools, instigator Josh Donaldson went above and beyond to earn Asshole of the Week.
