Über diesen Titel

Welcome to the Rosters to Rings Podcast where General Managers from the MLB, NBA, NFL and more will take you behind the curtain and share their unfiltered experiences and evaluations of past and present events in professional sports.

Due to competitive reasons, league rules, ownership directives and extreme discretion, General Managers share approximately 40% of what they know and experience with fans. At the Rosters to Rings Podcast, we are here to share as much of the other 60% as we can. We will dive deep into not only what decisions are made, but how and why they are made, the strategic nature of negotiations, roster construction, the characters that make up the game, and the true depth of relationships between executives, coaches, players, agents, media and fans.

    Feb 19 2026

    In this mailbag episode of Rosters to Rings, Thad dives into some of the biggest storylines around Major League Baseball:

    • The recent spike in hamate bone injuries — why they’re happening and how they impact hitters long-term

    • What it could mean for the league if MLBPA Executive Director Tony Clark steps down

    • Why Lucas Giolito remains the last major free agent on the market and what that signals about today’s pitching landscape

    • Early MVP candidates not named Judge or Ohtani — and who could realistically enter that tier

    Got a question for Thad?
