Dump On The Ump

Baseball is finally back in America! Sam, Thomas, and Joel are here to give their impressions of the first week of the MLB Season, and updates on the Red Sox, Mariners, and White Sox. Also: Aaron Judge is an idiot for turning down his deal with the Yankees, and you can make literally anything into a sport. Follow us on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook: @DumpOnTheUmp

It's time for the Dump On The Ump AL East Preview! In a stacked division, Red Sox fan Sam obviously thinks that Boston will come out on top, but don't sleep on the Yankees, Blue Jays, or Rays, either!

Sam and Joel give their 2022 preview of the NL East! Mind you, we recorded this episode before deGrom got hurt. But we still didn't pick the Mets to win the division.

Joel and Sam preview the 2022 AL Central Division. The Minnesota Twins have made some big moves in the offseason, but the Chicago White Sox should be favored to repeat as division champs. Also: Sam gives his latest hottakes on Ukraine and the Oscars!

The gang is all here! Joel, Sam, Thomas, and Justin (from Bad Guy Radio) are on the podcast, talking about MLB's offseason deals, including Trevor Story to the Red Sox and Carlos Correa to the Twins!

Thomas, Sam, and Joel are back to talk about the latest updates in Major League Baseball's labor lockout - oh wait, no we're a week late. Check out Thomas' updates on Spring, and Joel's updates on Spring Training.

So we recorded this podcast before MLB ended the lockout, ok? Rob Manfred knew he had screwed up when even Mike Trout starts posting about him on IG; Russell Westbrick has the thin skin of someone who has never been bullied before; and why did nobody notice that Britney Griner has been missing?

This ain't a feel good episode.

The boys of Dump On The Ump forego the State of the Union to give you the latest on the state of baseball! Rob Manfred, that piece of shit, has officially canceled the first week of baseball. Also: Derek Jeter quits as CEO of the Miami Marlins; social media is killing us all; and shoutout to the IUPUI Jaguars!

It's the middle of February. There's a war going on. Climate change is coming for us all. There is no baseball. Listen to our sad seasonal depression episode.

We're hopeful that the MLB CBA negotiations will make some progress now that they're taking place in Jupiter, Florida, and Lucifer can take over. Sam has a working theory that Juwan Howard has PTSD about time-outs. Thomas is trying to stay positive, and Joel is pushing their steampunk college football novel!

Joel, Sam, and Thomas are back to talk about the terribly depressing world of sports! MLB continues to drag its feet regarding the CBA negotiations; Matt Harvey testifies in the death of Tyler Skaggs; and the IOC continues to do absolutely nothing about Russian doping! Many jokes will be told about all these hilarious topics.

Joel and Sam are back, and are talking about the best foods to have with your Super Bowl! From seven-layer dip and chips and guac to chicken wings and all sorts of seafood, we cover it all. Also: We also talk a little football.

Joel, Sam, and Thomas are back to talk about the dystopian hellscape that is sports! Joe West retires - was it because he was under investigation for his role in the Jan. 6 insurrection? Adam Wainwright is the Michael Scott of the MLBPA! And: The Winter Olympics: Uplifting example of human sportsmanship, or cynical Ponzi scheme? We report, you decide!

In this week's Top O' The Crock, Joel and Chef Sam talk about Joel's attempts to make porkchop sandwiches from his crock pot, Sam shares the secrets of his chicken sweet potato curry, and they discuss the differences between jambalaya and paella.

Joel, Sam, and Thomas are back! Tom Brady announces his retirement from the NFL - it's his world and we're all just living in it; the MLB CBA negotiations have stalled again - is baseball doomed? And we restart the Hall of Fame debates! Is David Ortiz really more deserving than Edgar Martinez?

In this week's episode of Top O' The Crock, Sam tells us about his recent trip to South Florida, his search there for the perfect Cuban Sandwich, and his adventures trying to get that sandwich past security.

Dump On The Ump welcomes Justin (@Panthera_Onca6) to the podcast! They talk about the Red Sox, the nature of fandom, the MLB Lockout, and the recent Hall of Fame voting!

The Novak Djokovic scandal has come to a close, in Australia at least, with the world no 1 tennis star being deported from the country. Also: The NFL Divisional Playoffs, and the New York Yankees hire a female coach.

Joel and Sam welcome #YAHDOG #DISONE on to the podcast to talk about his childhood on the South Side, his love for the Chicago White Sox, and his love for yellow mustard.
