Listen to Dave Cameron episodes only
As many reviewers have pointed out, this podcast is high quality baseball talk when Dave Cameron is on the podcast. Cameron is a 5. Just filter out the other podcasts as they are usually almost exclusively junk. The rest are consistently a 1 or a 2 rating. Save time and only listen to Dave Cameron. Carson Cistulli is generally unprepared and uninformed when the podcast starts rolling. At times it seems he doesn't even know baseball. His meandering, disjointed style really doesn't lend itself to an informative baseball podcast nor as being a good host. There are many podcasts that only tangentially touch on baseball at all (especially any podcast with Dayn Perry). Note to Carson and Dayn: You're not interesting. Cistulli is a horrible interviewer. His questions and interview progression when interviewing players proves he puts little thought into what he going to ask and how to interview a guest. He thinks winging it by asking ignorant and off-the-wall questions is somehow cool and/or humorous. It's not. The podcast reviewer "Owlguy" (Feb 9,2012) really succinctly reviewed the positives and the shortcomings of the podcast."Carson and Dave Cameron spend about 30 minutes talking about recent baseball news with actual analysis and opinion." "Dayn Perry and Carson spend 30-45 minutes acting like 12-year-olds." And I heartily endorse Owlguys' final comment: "I will take less frequency with better quality anyday." Save yourself some wasted podcast time by limiting your listenting to the Dave Cameron episodes. It's really too bad as there are plenty of great topics on the Fangraphs website that could be discussed more fully. But Carson just boots the ball for an error.Read full review »

First of all, being a lover of the greatest game on the planet, I devour anything that has to do with stat analysis. Fangraphs is one of the premiere sites on the interwebs to find such analysis, and when I found out about a year ago that there was a podcastt from the site that had interviews...Read full review »

I like it. I just wish the podcasts were released on a set schedule, not just whenever. As for the 'casters? Why hasn't there been any effort to clarify the connections of the regular contributors?(ie Cameron, Perry) And as for Dave Cameron- remember what Willy Wonka said to Mike TV? ...Read full review »

I like the podcast, when they talk baseball. often they get side tracked, and that gets pretty irritating. The host is interesting, I actually like his sense of humor in a quirky way. Good podcast if they stay focused on baseball.
