Batting Practice Podcast

We are back with another exciting episode of the Batting Practice Podcast and could not be enthused that Opening Day is finally here! Spring is sort of in the air in the Midwest and we cannot wait for the crack of the bat and the smells of the stadium ( hot dog anyone? ). Here at Batting Practice, we are always trying to elevate our game and provide you relevant content to elevate and improve your Sorare MLB journey. That is why we are dedicating Episode 31 to discussing what players you should target that all cost below 12 diamonds. We have 3 or more value players at each position as we each made our list independently and shared them to our collective list live on the podcast. Listen in as we defend and explain our picks to give more background on why we like a certain guy. It can be hard to afford those 20 point studs without scraping the bottom of the player pool. We want to give you some names that can shine and put up numbers of a higher priced player all for less diamonds. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1EcewDg9untFFjEPt_py8ZOiocTVqa53FLdXJ-mLd10Q/edit?usp=sharing Thank you to all the love and support we have seen on Twitter this week, especially as it relates to our YouTube video showcasing our Dad's joining Sorare. He was a great sport and funny too so listen in to hear how you can sign up your friend that may have a few questions... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7HDAzechzy4&t=63s

All-Star voting is open and we're not waiting around. This week Jacob and Andrew go position by position through the American League ballot — breaking down who should make it, who the fans are going to vote in, and where those two things don't line up at all.Before getting back to baseball, the guys also make their World Cup winner picks, name a dark horse (Norway, and yes, they're confident), and debate how far the US is actually going.Next week: NL All-Stars, Nash is back, and apparently a conspiracy theory is in the works. New episodes every Tuesday.

The American League is off to a subarashii start—and we’re breaking it all down. From surprising White Sox momentum to big questions around the Royals and Bobby Witt Jr., we dive into what’s real, what’s noise, and what could shape the division races. Are the AL Central and West already trending toward chaos, or is it too early to judge? Plus, Rookie of the Year chatter, breakout arms, and why finishing strong might matter more than starting hot.
