Recorded in the KUBU Radio studio, Episode 28 of BLEAV in A’s dives into the A’s late-season surge and the wild playoff race unfolding across Major League Baseball.

The crew recaps the A’s two big wins against the Astros:

• Game 1: A 5–1 victory behind Jeffery Springs, who tossed five innings of three-hit, one-run baseball to improve to 11–11 with a 4.11 ERA. RBIs came from Cortes, Hernaiz, Soderstrom, and Jacob Wilson.

• Game 2: A dominant 6–0 shutout as Luis Severino earned the win, throwing 6.1 innings of three-hit ball with five strikeouts and one walk (now 8–11, 4.51 ERA). Shea Langeliers hit his 31st home run with two RBIs, Tyler Soderstrom added his 25th homer with two RBIs, and Brent Rooker drove in two more.

With one more game left in the Astros series and three games remaining against the Royals, the A’s sit at 75–83, eliminated from playoff contention but embracing the spoiler role.

The hosts also break down the chaotic MLB playoff picture:

• AL West: Mariners have clinched, while the Astros are 1 game back in the Wild Card chase.

• AL East: Yankees and Blue Jays have clinched playoff spots; Red Sox trail by 3 games.

• AL Central: Guardians lead with the Tigers just 1 game back.

• NL races: Phillies, Brewers, Dodgers, and Padres have clinched spots, with multiple teams still battling for the final Wild Card positions.

Finally, Tyler, Luke, and Devin share their predictions for how the postseason brackets will shake out and wrap the show with their Favorite A’s Memory segment.

Episode 27 of BLEAV in A’s covers a busy week of baseball news and the final stretch of the 2025 MLB season.

The crew reviews the A’s latest action at Fenway Park:

• Game 1: A’s defeated the Red Sox 2–1 behind Jeffery Springs’ four solid innings and a strong relief appearance from Mitch Spence. Tyler Soderstrom delivered a pinch-hit RBI and Brett Harris went 2-for-4 with an RBI.

• Game 2: Boston walked off in the 10th inning for a 5–4 win. Darrell Hernaiz drove in three runs and Lawrence Butler added an RBI, but the A’s left six men on base.

With the A’s record now at 72–81 and officially eliminated from postseason contention, Tyler, Luke, and Devin shift the focus to the league-wide playoff race. They analyze the standings across both leagues:

• AL West: Astros lead with the Mariners just 0.5 games back and Rangers 5 games out.

• AL East: Blue Jays on top, Yankees 4 games back, Red Sox 6 back.

• AL Central: Tigers lead with Guardians 4.5 back.

• NL divisions and both Wild Card races, including the Cubs, Padres, Mets, Diamondbacks, Reds, and Giants battling for the final spots.

Finally, the hosts debate whether the A’s young core, led by Nick Kurtz, Shea Langeliers, Luis Morales, and Jacob Wilson, can develop quickly enough to make a serious run at the playoffs next year. They preview the upcoming final nine games and wrap up the show with their weekly Favorite A’s Memory segment.

Recorded at the KUBU Radio studio, Episode 26 of BLEAV in A’s dives into a thrilling week of A’s baseball. Tyler, Luke, and Devin recap the team’s recent series against the Red Sox, which featured a dramatic 5–4 walk-off win at Sutter Health Park. Lawrence Butler delivered the game-winning single off Aroldis Chapman, snapping Chapman’s run of 50 consecutive batters retired without a hit or run allowed since July 23.

The show highlights the historic night for two of the A’s brightest young stars:

• Shea Langeliers launched his 30th home run of the season, joining Terry Steinbach as the only catchers in A’s history with 30 homers in a single season while catching at least half the games.

• Nick Kurtz followed with his own 30th homer, becoming only the third A’s rookie ever to reach that mark, alongside the legendary Bash Brothers Mark McGwire and Jose Canseco. Kurtz reached 30 homers in just 102 Major League games, ranking seventh fastest among active players to reach the milestone.

The crew also reviews the A’s overall record (67–80), the first two losses to the Red Sox earlier in the series, and looks ahead to upcoming games as the team continues to build around its emerging young core. They close the show with their signature “Favorite A’s Memory” segment.

We’re back in the KUBU Radio studio for Episode 25 of BLEAV in A’s. Tyler, Luke, and Devin cover the latest from Sacramento as the A’s continue their late-season grind.

The crew dives into the highlights of the past week:

• The A’s swept the Tigers, led by their young offense and a stellar Game 3 performance from Luis Morales (now 3-0 with a 1.59 ERA).

• Despite being swept by the Rangers, Sean Newcomb has emerged as a dominant arm out of the bullpen, and Brent Rooker provided clutch offense.

• The A’s also took Game 1 against the Cardinals behind a big night versus former Athletic Sonny Gray.

With the A’s record now at 64–77, the guys discuss why this season has been a positive step forward despite the standings, focusing on the emergence of Morales, Nick Kurtz, Jacob Wilson, and Shea Langeliers. They also preview the upcoming series against the Angels and wrap things up with their Favorite A’s Memory segment.

The A’s are on FIRE — winners of 20 of their last 30 games and fresh off back-to-back wins over the AL Central-leading Tigers. In Episode 24 of BLEAV in A’s, Tyler, Luke, and Devin break down the team’s latest hot streak, capped by Darrell Hernaiz’s walk-off walk and Shea Langeliers’ grand slam off Cy Young candidate Tarik Skubal.

We also dive deep into the A’s farm system, which now ranks 15th in MLB after adding No. 5 overall prospect Leo De Vries at the trade deadline. With Nick Kurtz, Jacob Wilson, Shea Langeliers, Tyler Soderstrom, Luis Morales, and more already making an impact, could this be the best young core in baseball?

Topics include:

It’s a solo episode this week as Tyler breaks down everything happening with the A’s as the 2025 season enters its final month. The focus is on the opener against Seattle, where 22-year-old right-hander Luis Morales impressed in just his fourth MLB game (third career start), tossing six innings of two-hit, one-run baseball with six strikeouts and no walks. Morales, the A’s No. 3 prospect, has rocketed through the system since signing out of Cuba in 2023 and looks like a major piece of the future.

At the plate, Brent Rooker hit his 26th home run of the year in the first inning, while Jacob Wilson returned from injury, hitting fifth in the order and driving in a run. Nick Kurtz batted leadoff, continuing his strong rookie season.

With two more games against the Mariners on the road before hosting the Tigers in Sacramento, Tyler also discusses what’s left to watch for in the final month and whether this season can still be viewed as progress for the A’s despite the standings. As always, he closes with the Favorite A’s Memory segment.

Topics covered:

• A’s recent games vs Mariners

• Luis Morales’ breakout start

• Rooker’s 26th HR and Wilson’s return

• One month left in the season outlook

• Upcoming games vs Mariners and Tigers

• Favorite A’s Memory

We’re back in the KUBU Radio studio for Episode 22 of BLEAV in A’s! Tyler, Luke, and Devin break down the A’s recent win over the Twins, highlight Jacob Lopez’s strong outing, and discuss whether the Athletics might already have the best young core in Major League Baseball.

From Nick Kurtz and Jacob Wilson to Shea Langeliers, Max Muncy, and top prospect Leo De Vries, this roster is loaded with emerging stars. With more talent waiting in the minors — and a farm system stacked with pitching prospects like Gage Jump, Jaime Arnold, and Luis Morales — could this be the foundation for the A’s next playoff run?
