The Length of Careers Looking Much Too Short and Willie Mays Tenure Is Of Highest Import
This week we discuss the apparent shortening of careers. Is this just a phantom that has no merit or do careers really seem to be shortening as baseball goes on?
For our This Week In Baseball, we discuss the 1968 Yaz Batting Title and if modern baseball is trending to lower averages. Will we see consistently lower batting title averages or will the cream always rise to the top?
Our Hall of Famer this week is Center Fielder Willie Mays. He is a Hall of Famer so just listen to us rave about the greatness of Mays and you'll hopefully enjoy it as much as we did.
In our singlular parting shot this week discusses the poor fundamentals of current baseball play.
Enjoy our new crop of weekly commercials featuring Willie Mays for Blasting Cap Caution, The Clean Air Fund, and Chrysler!
Please join us as we discuss baseball topics and we continue our mission to make The Hall small. We hope you'll enjoy the ride.

Prospect Importance Is Up In the Air and Hack Willson's Case is Worse For The Wear
This week we discuss the value of the baseball prospect. Have prospects become less valuable or more so, but in the sense of just being a commodity?
For our This Week In Baseball, we discuss the legendary Earl Weaver argument with umpire Bill Haller. This segment speaks for itself. We play the audio, but if you'd like to see it in its full video glory, it can be found here: https://youtu.be/FrhmUGRaOwY?si=svKeez4SeUHrtzlK (https://youtu.be/FrhmUGRaOwY?si=svKeez4SeUHrtzlK)
Our Hall of Famer this week is RBI record holder Hack Wilson. His name is often remembered, but are his numbers on the field worthy of his inclusion in Cooperstown?

Owners In Sports Changing For The Worse and Addie Joss' Induction Feels Slightly Coerced
This week we discuss the changing landscape of sports ownership. Have sports owners changed over the years or have they just become different for better or worse?
For our This Week In Baseball, we discuss the firing of Danny Ozark. Would the Phillies have succeeded with him still at the helm or did Dallas Green have the necessary magic?
Our Hall of Famer this week is pitcher Addie Joss. The ten year eligibility requirement was waved for his induction, but were his numbers enough to warrant this waving or is this a head scratcher?
In our singlular parting shot this week discusses the career of Tommy John as well as his sport altering surgery.
Enjoy our new crop of weekly commercials featuring Mel Allen for baseball cards, Baseball Hall of Famers for Mastercard, and Bugs Bunny and Sam for Post Cereal baseball cards.
