AJ Dybantsa pulled up to the ALL THE SMOKE studio and it was clear from the jump: this kid is different. We got into his journey from Brockton to BYU, what it was like being the most watched prospect in the country since 9th grade, and why he has never once dropped from the number one spot. We also broke down the intensity behind his game, how an 8th grade coach changed everything, and what LeBron told him about business that he took and ran with. AJ’s dad Ace also joined the show to give us more background on their tight relationship and approach to development.

Dave Winfield sits down with Matt Barnes and Chris Young for an extremely revealing conversation. By every measure, Winfield had one of the greatest careers the game has ever seen. 7-time Gold Glove winner. 3,000 hits. Hall of Famer. Drafted by four leagues in a single year. But the numbers only tell part of the story. For the first time, Winfield opens up about the years behind the stats: a decade of battling George Steinbrenner that made him miserable during his years in New York.

He also talks about joy, specifically when he signed with Toronto at 40 years old, playing 156 games, driving in 108 runs and winning the 1992 World Series. Winfield also touches on his upbringing in Minnesota, the most underrated players of his generation, making $15,000 as a rookie, his brawl with Nolan Ryan, and much more.
