Great interview
Need Kawhi one day here but sheesssh. Need that Kawhi mookie connection or James harden
Mookie smokes trees since when?

And who knew bruh smoked!!!!😭
Finally we see some baseball players on the pod and a current one. Please get d-train, Frank Thomas, Albert Belle, Kenny lofton, prince fielder, and many more on all the smoke
Mookie is the modern (active) GOAT !
5 tool player who may play 2 decades with his accolades😊 and multiple positions.
I would love to see him snag another MVP and with more 🛳️ s !!!
What a class act and great guy !
"Can you get us a pitcher that throws 90 and we can make some bets on that and film it?"
Trevor Bauer: I might know someone
Get Dave Roberts on here
Die hard fan but never been to a game. What ?
This seems to be a Stephen Jackson interview hosted by Mookie Betts and Matt Barnes.
Barry Bonds & Pete Rose in hall of fame debate wb a good podcast. Talking the point Mookie emphasized about steroids, they were who they were before they took drugs.
N3ON
Get Trout on here next! He can adapt to any environment, even “the professional trap” hahah! Great interview!
Great show! 😊
Thanks for this podcast episode. Mookie is the best. He is my favorite MLB player ever and forever.
25:27 Career .300 batting avg is pretty elite in MLB. That’s striking out 1/3 times you go to bat 😅.
Great interview. This central Cali gal LoVEs the LA Dodgers !
Happy to travel to watch that parade. 💙
35:55 paint the pooch!!! 😂😂
Amazing pod guys! Mookie is one of a kind and I love him flipping the script and asked his own questions. Keep up the great work, ATS Team!
Josh Beckett also played for the Dodgers
do tatis next ☝️
Shohei was definitely gambling idgaf
Go Spurs Go!!
Wow great Podcast never knew you guys had a podcast? I remember both of you guys when the NBA was watchable and guys played Defense. I am now a Subscribed Watcher Great
Show! It didn't hurt to have a Great African American Baseball Player on your Show! Mookie is the best you guys make a great team on your Podcast
Mook is a freak athlete
Love Mookie but disagree about the steroid position. Yes, you still have to hit the ball but with PED's you're stronger and you're hitting the ball farther. You can cut down on your swing and still hit home runs. With that said, Bonds should be in the HOF because he was HOF worthy before PED's. And I don't blame him for using them either…here he was, the best all around player in baseball and PED users are getting paid and publicized more. So why not join them?
YOOOOO GUYS HIT UP TREVOR BAUER TO SEE IF YALL CAN HIT 90!!!!!!!!!!!
Cornerback is the hardest? How that makes any sense is ridiculous 😂
I love you Mook, but having LBJ above MJ for having a production company is WACK! Notice the basketball players have it MJ, KB, LBJ…
At the end it just became Mookie's podcast 😂😂😂
You ain’t hitting 90 mph but maybe a tipped ball
2 comments….
1 – Stack talking about TD gets me so hyped. I became a fan of TDs when he stayed all 4 years at Wake even though he could’ve gone straight from high school, which was the trend then. 2 – At the end, MBs genuine interest in what the fellas experienced was cool.
The thing about Barry Bonds though is that while yes he was able to hit dingers when he was younger, players lose bat speed as they age. You can't tell me that him using steroids wasn't the reason for him breaking hr records at the tail end of his career. Its one thing to be hitting 30-40 home runs at the prime of your career but then it spiking to 50 to 70 home runs towards the end of your career is obviously because of the juice.
Hell yeah. Thank you ATS. Go Dodgers!
Still can’t believe Boston let him go. Dude really wanted to stay there.
First full episode I watched. I am gonna have to watch the older ones!
As a giants fan I have the upmost respect for the dodgers especially Betts n Ohtani. Hopefully we can compete with you guys soon n spark this rivalry up
No! You can’t reward players who cheat. Or else you will encourage more cheating.
RONALD ACUNA MENTIONED <3 THANKS MOOKIE <3
Mookie such a dope dude
