<p>⚾ THE CHASERS DUGOUT REPORT | EPISODE 490</p><p>🎙️ Host &amp; Moderator: KEVIN L. WARREN and Co-Host D-DUBBZ</p><p>ft. MLB Resident Expert &amp; Sports Chasers #1 Contributor — ALVIN CLAWSON</p><p>📅 Sports Chasers Podcast | Pre-Recorded Saturday, March 21, 2026</p><p><br></p><p>🇻🇪🏆 VENEZUELA MAKES HISTORY — STUNS TEAM USA 3–2 IN THE 2026 WBC FINAL!</p><p><br></p><p>On this Saturday edition of The Chasers Dugout Report, host and moderator Kevin L. Warren leads co-host D Dubs and Sports Chasers' #1 MLB Contributor Alvin Clawson through a complete breakdown of Venezuela's stunning championship run at the 2026 World Baseball Classic — and a full preview of the 2026 MLB season.</p><p><br></p><p>Tournament MVP Maikel Garcia delivered with a .385 average and 7 RBI. Eugenio Suárez's go-ahead RBI double in the 9th inning was the dagger. Wilyer Abreu launched a 414-foot homer off USA starter Nolan McLean. And despite arguably the best pitching staff ever assembled for a WBC — Team USA's bats went ice cold. Aaron Judge went 0-for-4 with 3 strikeouts. Bryce Harper batted .214. Alex Bregman hit .143. Stunning.</p><p><br></p><p>Kevin leads the crew in debating whether the WBC should move to the All-Star break, discussing the emotional meaning of Venezuela's win amid political turmoil — where the government declared a national holiday — and how Venezuela's gassed bullpen somehow closed out the title on back-to-back nights.</p><p><br></p><p>Then it's all 2026 MLB. Alvin drops his FULL division winner picks (Dodgers, Reds, Mets, Tigers, Mariners, Toronto), sleeper teams (Pirates &amp; A's), and MVP favorites (Ohtani &amp; Judge). The panel digs into MLB's new ABS Challenge System (robot umps), Netflix's Opening Night exclusive (Yankees vs. Giants, March 25), the streaming wars, blackout frustrations, and why regional sports networks are dying.</p><p><br></p><p>This is baseball the way it should be — passionate, informed, unfiltered.</p><p><br></p><p>52:13 🏆 THIS IS THE ONE YOU CAME FOR.</p><p>Host Kevin L.

<p>🎙️ Sports Chasers Podcast | Episode 486 | Thursday Night Live 📅 Recorded Live: Thursday, March 12, 2026 | 7:00 PM EST</p><p>Welcome to Chasers Nation! 🏆 Sports Chasers Podcast is back with Episode 486 of Thursday Night Live — covering every sport, every week, with zero hot takes and zero agendas. Just passionate, well-researched sports talk for real fans.</p><p>THIS WEEK: ⚾ Mark DeRosa is under fire for what the crew is calling flat-out BASEBALL MALPRACTICE at the World Baseball Classic. The USA's lack of urgency on the international stage is a recurring problem — and we're not letting it slide. We break down the WBC quarter-final landscape, why the DR is the team to beat, and whether college players should be the ones repping America if the pros won't take it seriously.</p><p>🏒 Dan K. The Hockey Dude drops in with a full NHL trade deadline breakdown — and the new playoff salary cap rule changed EVERYTHING. Find out why the Buffalo Sabres are the hottest team nobody's talking about, whether the Penguins can hold their playoff spot without Crosby and Malkin, and why the Toronto Maple Leafs are in full meltdown mode after the Olympics.</p><p>🏈 NFL offseason is in full swing: The Max Crosby-Ravens saga took a wild turn. Kyler Murray is heading to Minnesota — but will the system work? Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers feel inevitable. And Daniel Jones gets a fresh start with the Colts. We break it all down.</p><p>🏀 Is intentionally fouling to let someone chase a scoring record killing the integrity of the game? The crew debates — Bam Adebayo, Kobe's 81, and where the line is. Then we close with the WNBA CBA standoff: gross revenue vs. net revenue, Caitlin Clark's star power, and whether a deal gets done in time for the season.</p><p>🌐 Visit Us → <a href="https://sportschaserspodcast.net/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://sportschaserspodcast.net/</a> 📰 'Game On' Newsletter (Every Monday) → <a href="https://sportschaserspodcast.net/newsletter" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://sportschaserspodcast.net/newsletter</a> 👕 Get Your Chasers Gear → <a href="https://1800tshirts.chipply.com/sportschaserspodcast/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://1800tshirts.chipply.com/sportschaserspodcast/</a> ⭐ LOVE THE PODCAST → <a href="https://lovethepodcast.com/678c0f38d2" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://lovethepodcast.com/678c0f38d2</a> 🔔 FOLLOW THE PODCAST → <a href="https://followthepodcast.com/678c0f38" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://followthepodcast.com/678c0f38</a> 🎙️ PODCAST FEEDBACK → <a href="https://podcastfeedback.com/678c0f38d" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcastfeedback.com/678c0f38d</a></p><h1>🌟 SECTION 6 — Highlighted Podcast Chapter</h1><p>⚾ WBC: Mark DeRosa's Baseball Malpractice | Timestamp: 02:51</p><p>🔥 FEATURED CHAPTER — This is the chapter Chasers Nation can't stop talking about.</p><p>In the most heated segment of the episode, the crew goes OFF on USA World Baseball Classic manager Mark DeRosa in a way that will have every baseball fan nodding their head. Al breaks down DeRosa's shocking unfamiliarity with tournament rules, the decision to bench Bryce Harper and Bregman in a must-win game, and an inexperienced coaching staff that looks more like a friend group than a World Baseball Classic dugout. Meanwhile, the Dominican Republic, Venezuela, and Italy are showing up with FIRE. The question being asked loud and clear: If the United States isn't going to take the WBC seriously — why are we even there? This is sports accountability at its finest. #WBC2026 #DeRosa #BaseballMalpractice #ChasersNation</p>
