Tyler Kepner

The 2020 Baseball Hall of Fame election is upon us.  The ballot was officially released this week to voting members of the Baseball Writers Association of America. Results will be announced in January, but the arguments have just begun. Can anyone justify not making Derek Jeter unanimous? Is it time to stop penalizing Larry Walker for playing in Colorado?  Can we appreciated a career like Alfonso Soriano's without electing him to the Hall? And what does last year’s election of Harold Baines mean moving forward? All of these questions and more are answered on the latest episode of the “30 With Murti” podcast featuring guest Tyler Kepner, The New York Times baseball columnist and best-selling author of the book “K: A History of Baseball in Ten Pitches.”

Hall Of Fame Weekend Recap

Jeff Nelson

Mike Stanton

Later this month, Mariano Rivera will be elected to the Hall of Fame. The only drama from his side will be whether or not he is a unanimous choice. So begins the yearlong celebration of the Greatest Closer of All-Time. To help kick things off, we chatted with two of his longtime bullpen-mates, Jeff Nelson and Mike Stanton, on a new edition of the "30 With Murti" podcast. Nelson recalls watching Mariano develop into Joe Torre's super bullpen weapon in 1996 before moving into the closer's role the following year. Stanton came to the Yankees in 1997 and recalls some of Rivera's early struggles as a closer before he settled in and started down the road to Cooperstown.

Timothy Busfield

You know actor Timothy Busfield from the baseball movies "Field of Dreams" and "Little Big League." And you know him from so many other roles in "Thirtysomething," "The West Wing," "Revenge of The Nerds" and more. Now Busfield is a director for such shows as "This is Us" and "Law &amp; Order: SVU." And he is also a huge baseball fan, which is why he is Sweeny’s guest on a brand new "30 With Murti." Busfield talks about growing up a Tigers fan and attempting to play college baseball before going the theatre route. He also shares stories about some of his famous roles, including facing Randy Johnson for the climactic final scene in "Little Big League," playing White House reporter Danny Concannon on "The West Wing," and appearing in his first-ever screen role as the soldier who blew up Sgt. Hulka in "Stripes." His latest on-screen turn is in the Fox drama "Almost Family," which premieres this fall.

Phil Plantier

The successes of Gio Urshela and Mike Tauchman -- essentially as replacements for Miguel Andujar and Giancarlo Stanton -- are not ones the Yankees could have predicted. But as an organization, they are very confident in the process that brings players like that to the big-league level, from scouting them to coaching them and making them viable options to contribute to a team with high expectations. One of the coaches who has had an impact on both those players and more is Scranton/Wilkes-Barre hitting coach Phil Plantier. A veteran of eight major league seasons, Plantier is in his second year with the Yankees' Triple-A team. This week on a new “30 With Murti” podcast, Plantier talks about hitting approach and the things that have made Urshela and Tauchman successful, as well as the things that he’s seen from Clint Frazier since he’s been back at Triple-A.

John Franco

Ron Blomberg

The 2019 Hall of Fame class will feature two closers (Mariano Rivera and Lee Smith) and two men who were primarily designated hitters (Edgar Martinez and Harold Baines). Baseball's long history is relatively short in relation to the closer and the DH. It is noteworthy that both of these specialty roles will be recognized alongside the other greats of the game in Cooperstown. On this new episode of "30 With Murti," we discuss the recognition of these positions.   First, Sweeny Murti talks about Rivera, Smith and the closer's role with former Mets closer John Franco, who is fifth on the all-time saves list. Then Sweeny talks to former Yankee Ron Blomberg, the first person ever to come to bat as a designated hitter in 1973.   Hear Franco make his case for more closers to be enshrined in the coming years. Then listen to Blomberg discuss the evolution of the DH and recall the moment he became the answer to a trivia question.

Dan O'Dowd

The Yankees are counting on three former Colorado Rockies to be a major part of their success in 2019.   Former Rockies GM Dan O'Dowd is now an analyst on MLB Network.  In this new episode of "30 With Murti," WFAN's Sweeny Murti talks with O'Dowd about Troy Tulowitzki, D.J. LeMahieu and Adam Ottavino. All three players were acquired by O'Dowd during his tenure as GM in Colorado.  Now he helps us understand a little more about them as players and why they could be big contributors to the Yankees this season.

Rick Peterson

Starting pitching made a comeback in the World Series. Did it ever really go away? Not really. But there has certainly been an evolution of pitching and the use of technology and data to maximize performance. You could say it started as part of "Moneyball," but now it's a lot more than that. Rick Peterson, longtime major league pitching coach with the Oakland A's "Moneyball" teams of the early 2000s and later with the New York Mets, is as educated on this side of pitching as anyone who has been in baseball this century. Now retired from coaching, Peterson co-authored the book "Crunch Time: How To Be Your Best When It Matters Most."   On the latest "30 With Murti" podcast, Peterson gives some of his thoughts on the state of pitching in 2019 along with the data, technology, and philosophies that are instrumental in developing major league pitchers.

Suzyn Waldman

Thirty years ago today — Oct. 17, 1989 — the World Series was interrupted by an earthquake. It measured 6.8 on the Richter scale and rocked the Bay Area just as the Oakland A’s and San Francisco Giants were minutes away from starting Game 3 of the Fall Classic at Candlestick Park. The quake shook the stadium, but did far more damage in the surrounding areas. Thousands were injured, and 63 people died. The World Series didn’t resume until 10 days later.   WFAN’s Suzyn Waldman was there reporting on the scene, in an instant going from sports reporter to news reporter. On this episode of “30 With Murti,” Sweeny and Suzyn talk about her memories of the earthquake and its aftermath 30 years later.

Trade rumors involving the Yankees, Mets and Marlins were all the rage Monday night, but as those rumors fizzled, the Yankees were still left answering questions about what they feel the long-term futures are for Gary Sanchez and to a lesser degree Miguel Andujar. The offensive seasons that Sanchez had in 2017 and Andujar in 2018 are what the Yankees see as the obvious upside, and while nobody is being labeled untouchable, the Yankees are making sure to accentuate the positives on both players at this point.  Listen here to reaction from Brian Cashman and Aaron Boone from Tuesday's activity at the Winter Meetings in Las Vegas.

Jeffrey Maier

Twenty-four years ago he was 12-year old Jeffrey Maier, the kid who reached over the fence and turned Derek Jeter's fly ball into a home run that changed a playoff game and maybe the course of the 1996 Yankees.  On the latest "30 With Murti" podcast, Sweeny chats with 36-year old Jeff Maier, a married father of three, who recounts his brush with fame and what's happened to him in the year since.Maier takes us through the moment and the amazing aftermath.  He also shares where the baseball journey has taken him and how people react to him in New York and Baltimore all these years later.

Steve Garvey

One of the great rivalries in baseball history is renewed this weekend when the Yankees meet the Dodgers in Los Angeles. Going back to the days when the Dodgers played in Brooklyn, these two franchises met in 11 Fall Classics from 1941 and 1981. The Yankees won eight of the 11 matchups.   Former Dodgers first baseman Steve Garvey -- a 10-time All-Star, four-time Gold Glove Winner and 1974 National League MVP -- played in the last three of those World Series, losing to Reggie Jackson, Thurman Munson and company in 1977 and ’78 before Garvey’s Dodgers won the crown in ’81.   On this new “30 With Murti,” Garvey shares his memories of those great chapters in baseball history and his thoughts on the current Dodgers team which could be headed to its third straight World Series.
