Cora & Thomson Fired, Bazzana Debuts, Elly’s Breakout, Rays Stay Scrappy, Schlittler Looks Frontline & Mason Miller IS Human | 165
Episode 166
Wednesday, 29 April, 2026

Episode 165 of Tablesetters is about early-season pressure, real breakouts, and figuring out which April storylines have staying power. We start with the managerial shakeups in Boston and Philadelphia, where Alex Cora and Rob Thomson are both out after rough starts from teams that expected much more. The bigger story is not just that both managers were fired, but how quickly both organizations decided they could not wait for things to fix themselves. From there, we get into Travis Bazzana’s debut and what his arrival says about a loaded 2024 draft class that is already producing big league regulars. We also dig into Elly De La Cruz and whether this is just a hot stretch or the beginning of the true superstar breakout everyone has been waiting on. The Rays are also forcing a bigger conversation. Even after their six-game winning streak ended, Tampa Bay’s identity is starting to look real: scrappy, balanced, and dangerous when games get tight. Around the league, Cam Schlittler is pitching like a frontline arm for the Yankees, Trey Yesavage’s return shows why adaptability matters, and Mason Miller’s scoreless streak ending only adds more context to how dominant he has been. We also hit the red-hot and ice-cold names of the week, plus our usual debates, polls, and what we’re watching next. 🎧 Listen to Episode 165 now 👍 Like the episode 📌 Subscribe so you never miss a drop 🗣️ Follow us on Instagram and X: @TablesettersPod
