The Mets fired manager Carlos Mendoza, the Angels dismissed GM Perry Minasian, and an MLB labor fight is looming — and the Sports Chasers break it all down on The Chasers Dugout Report. Objective, no-narrative baseball for the real sports fan.

Host & Moderator Kevin L. Warren. James E. "The Angry 1ne" and MLB Resident Expert Alvin Clawson unpack the Mets bottoming out at 34-48, Andy Green named interim manager, players admitting they "failed" Mendoza, and David Stearns' failed offseason overhaul despite a massive payroll — and whether New York sells at the deadline. Out west, the Angels oust GM Perry Minasian and hire longtime Cardinals exec John Mozeliak interim, with the crew examining Arte Moreno's leadership and the franchise's identity crisis. Then the big one: owners propose contract limits, dollar caps, and no deferrals tied to a salary cap, while the union rejects it and counters with a prop-betting ban. On the field: the hot Phillies, runaway Brewers and Dodgers, the White Sox's 22-run night, Yankees–Rays in the AL East, a weak AL West, and the Rafael Devers–Giants drama.

⭐ HIGHLIGHTED CHAPTER

🚨 Mets Fire Carlos Mendoza — And the Players Admit They "Failed" Him (04:24)

The marquee moment: the crew breaks down the Mets dismissing Mendoza at a season-worst 34-48, the six-game skid and six-error game that ended it, Lindor and the clubhouse owning the collapse, and why the GM may be next.

From minor league hockey coach in Surrey, British Columbia to CEO of a full-service marketing agency, Jared Harman joins host Kevin L. Warren to connect championship culture and leadership lessons from the ice to building high-performing business teams. EP.529

In this Sports Chasers Interview Session, Jared Harman — CEO and co-founder of The One Group Agency and a former goalie and minor hockey coach — breaks down discipline, respect, role clarity, and coaching people differently, and how those principles drive accountability and culture in business. He explains The One Group Agency as a full-service marketing firm (content, websites, social, digital ads, and podcast production) serving roughly 60 monthly retainer clients with a 16-person team.

Kevin and Jared dig into why system beats talent, how to scale systems while staying fluid with new tools and AI, hiring for ethics and values first, and using Donald Miller's "Building a StoryBrand" to simplify messaging and guide clients. They compare sports pressure vs. business pressure and close with a rapid-fire round on golf, FIFA, and the Vancouver Grizzlies NBA return debate.

⭐ HIGHLIGHTED CHAPTER

⚙️ Why System Beats Talent (23:05) — Jared explains why a repeatable system out-performs raw talent every time, and how role clarity and accountability turn good people into a winning team. This is the heart of the episode for any leader, founder, or coach.

Hosted by Kevin L. Warren (Host & Moderator) with D-Dubbz, The D.A., and Ryan DeSouza, the crew breaks down the Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bobby Portis blockbuster to the Miami Heat (for Tyler Herro, Kel'el Ware, Jaime Jaquez Jr., Kasparas Jakucionis and picks), the Florida Panthers reuniting Matthew and Brady Tkachuk, and the rest of the NHL trade frenzy — the Devils–Flames deal involving Simon Nemec and the Maple Leafs' long-term Darren Raddysh signing.

They react LIVE to the NBA Draft as the Washington Wizards take AJ Dybantsa No. 1, debate Trae Young's reported $212M extension to stay in Washington, and dig into a deep draft class. Plus: Wyndham Clark's wire-to-wire U.S. Open win at Shinnecock amid heavy heckling and golf's growing betting problem, World Cup 2026 group-stage chaos and the new mouth-cover red-card rule, the Caitlin Clark defense conversation, and the NCAA/NFL gambling fallout — including the case involving QB Brandon Sorsby and the NCAA's proposed five-year eligibility overhaul.

▶️ COMING THURSDAY: SiriusXM NBA Radio's Gerald Brown — host & EP of The Bottom Line Sports Show — joins the panel.

Ep. 526 | Dyslexia & Elite Athletes: The Hidden Sports Advantage

Sports Chasers Interview Sessions | June 8, 2026

Muhammad Ali. Magic Johnson. Tim Tebow. Nolan Ryan. Elite. Decorated.

Legendary. And all dyslexic. In this Sports Chasers Interview Session, host

Kevin L. Warren sits down with Russell Van Brocklen — The Dyslexia Professor

— for one of the most unexpected and powerful conversations in Sports Chasers

history.

Russell draws on Yale-based science from Dr. Sally Shaywitz's Overcoming

Dyslexia to explain why dyslexic learners aren't broken — they're built

differently. And in high-strategy positions like quarterback, that difference

may be an outright competitive advantage.

🎯 WHAT YOU'LL HEAR:

- The brain science behind why dyslexic athletes can process complex

situations faster than their peers

- The critical K–3 window — and why waiting is "gross negligence"

- Why school accommodations consistently fail dyslexic students

- A writing-based method using a student's sports passion to rebuild

academic skills and restore eligibility

- How to use the Orton-Gillingham approach and fight school systems

that resist helping your child

- Affordable resources, structured literacy tools, and free help available NOW

⭐ HIGHLIGHTED CHAPTER:

🏈 Quarterback Brain Breakdown | Timestamp: 06:45

Russell breaks down exactly why the dyslexic brain — wired for rapid

analysis and concise communication — creates a natural advantage in the

quarterback position. This is the moment that reframes everything.

The New York Knicks are 2026 NBA CHAMPIONS. Sports Chasers went live the moment it happened — Kevin L. Warren and D-Dubbz reacting in real time from a Fort Lauderdale cigar bar as New York closed out the San Antonio Spurs 4-1 to end a 53-year title drought dating back to 1973.

This is objective, no-narrative reaction the Chasers Nation way. We break down Jalen Brunson's 45-point Game 5 and his Finals MVP run, the Knicks erasing double-digit deficits in every win, Mike Brown's crunch-time coaching, the Leon Rose front-office build, and the role players — Josh Hart, OG Anunoby and more — who got it done. We also clap back at the doubters, talk Thursday's parade, and preview our full Monday breakdown.

🔥 HIGHLIGHTED CHAPTER

📊 06:26 — "The Comeback Kings: How the Knicks Rallied From Double Digits in EVERY Win"

The single most jaw-dropping stat of this title run. We break down how New York trailed by double figures in all four victories and kept coming — the kind of resilience that turns a good team into a champion. If you only listen to one segment, make it this one.

📅 GO DEEPER — MONDAY @ 7:00 PM ET on Weekend Rewind.

⚾ The Chasers Dugout Report — Episode 525 | MLB Week in Review

The Chicago White Sox are in first place, "The Miz" is overpowering the league, Tarik Skubal is back, and Yordan Alvarez just made baseball history. Kevin L. Warren, Resident MLB Insider Alvin Clawson, and Darrell "D-Dubbz" Warren deliver an objective, no-narrative breakdown of the week's biggest MLB storylines.

In this episode:

- White Sox (37-31) lead the AL Central after beating the Braves and Dodgers — is it sustainable?

- Jacob Misiorowski's 15-strikeout, one-hit gem and record 104.5 MPH heat (8-2, 1.34 ERA, MLB strikeout lead)

- Tarik Skubal's return after 38 days and the Detroit trade-deadline debate

- Skubal trade fits: Dodgers vs. Brewers, rentals, and roster value

- The Athletics' Oakland-to-Sacramento limbo and the Las Vegas future

- MLB expansion candidates and looming CBA labor concerns

- Yordan Alvarez's historic first inning and the DH MVP case

🌟 HIGHLIGHTED CHAPTER — 58:06

"Yordan Alvarez Makes MLB History: Grand Slam + 2-Homer, 6-RBI First Inning"

The crew breaks down the moment Yordan Alvarez became the FIRST player in MLB history to hit a grand slam and a multi-run home run in the first inning of a game — two homers and six RBI in Houston's nine-run first, powering a 10-8 win over the Royals and tying him for the MLB home run lead. A genuine "where-were-you" moment, and a centerpiece of the DH MVP conversation.
