Kid Cave: MLB All-Star Game Reactions, Predictions & The Biggest Storylines Around Baseball

The MLB postseason is here, and Dan Kasper is putting his predictions on the record — including a bold pick for the Milwaukee Brewers to win their first World Series championship!

On this episode of The Man Cave Podcast, Dan breaks down the entire MLB playoff field, makes his picks for the ALCS and NLCS, and explains why he believes the Brewers can finally finish the job.

Then it’s on to the NFL as Dan looks back at Week 3, including the undefeated teams, surprising starts, struggling contenders, and some of the biggest storylines across the league. Dan also dives into the Packers’ 1-2 start, the team’s offensive line problems, the addition of veteran linemen, and why Green Bay needs to take advantage of the upcoming schedule.

Plus, it’s time for Fantasy Football Trash Talk as the Man Cave league standings take shape, Dan introduces his new “That Was Awesome” and “That Wasn’t Awesome” segments, and he gives a tip of the cap to Justin Verlander and possibly Max Scherzer as an era of old-school starting pitching comes to an end.

And, of course, there’s plenty of classic Man Cave conversation along the way.

It’s sports talk, predictions, opinions, trash talk and a little bit of fun — all from inside The Man Cave.

Brewers World Series or Bust? MLB Playoff Picks, NFL Week 3 & Packers Panic

What are the things we couldn't stand when we were younger that we now appreciate as adults? Dan and Brandon put together their own Man Cave draft, picking the things they were told they'd eventually understand, appreciate, or even love — from school and vegetables to beer, coffee, early bedtimes, staying home, and more.

But before the draft, the guys tackle a bigger sports question: how much should fans actually trust analytics? Are advanced statistics helping us understand players and teams, or are we sometimes just throwing numbers into an argument because they sound impressive? Dan and Brandon discuss Pro Football Focus, WAR, EPA, box scores, player grades, and why context still matters when evaluating athletes.

Plus, Dan tries a Hamm's for the first time, the guys settle on their next Man Cave draft — the Top 5 Fullbacks of All Time — and another round of the Shake 7-14-21 game determines who has to bring the next beverage.

It's another unscripted conversation about sports, getting older, and the things we eventually realize our parents were right about.

Things We Hated as Kids That We Love as Adults

This is a packed episode of The Man Cave Podcast covering everything from Brewers baseball and legendary coaches to college mascots and the sports card hobby.

Dan kicks things off with a conversation about Brewers manager Pat Murphy and whether some of his leadership style reminds Dan of Vince Lombardi. They aren't comparing the two coaches' careers or accomplishments, but instead look at how both have been known for demanding a lot from their players while also knowing when and how to build them back up. He discusses Murphy's handling of players like Cooper Pratt and Robert Gasser, the culture he's created in Milwaukee, and what his legacy could eventually become.

Then it's college mascot time. Dan and Brandon debate their favorite mascots, including Bucky Badger, the Oregon Duck, Big Red, the Stanford Tree, WuShock and some of the more unusual characters in college sports. They also revisit Mike Leach's entertaining hypothetical about what would happen if college mascots had to fight.

Dan also catches up with Ty from Slab Factory for a deep dive into the sports card hobby. They talk about PSA's grading backlog and new service levels, what's happening with Beckett and other grading companies, the changing market for players like Tim Duncan and Brett Favre, new football card releases, and whether a potential MLB lockout could impact baseball card values.

Ty also shares some of his favorite Brewers cards, including Jackson Chourio, Prince Fielder and some unique one-of-one cards, plus there's a special Brewers card giveaway for listeners.

And there's a little preview of a future Man Cave conversation about the things we were told as kids that we'd eventually "understand when we got older."

No scripts. No forced takes. Just Man Cave talk.
