WILDEST MLB Stories: Jeter, A-Rod, Robbie Cano, Jason Giambi ft. Nick Swisher

Video Overview & Insights

Matt Barnes sits down with World Series champion and 13-year MLB veteran Nick Swisher for an unfiltered conversation. From the Oakland A's locker room to the darkest year of his career to winning it all in pinstripes, Swish holds absolutely nothing back.

I remember when hi father made the all star team. So proud

โ€” @zttz

They get into Jason Giambi's infamous team motto, Barry Zito's off-the-field life, and what it felt like to win a World Series with the New York Yankees after hitting rock bottom in 2008.

Plus โ€” the real talk on A-Rod, Derek Jeter, Robinson Cano, the death of Oakland baseball, the Dodgers dynasty, and why the Yankees are built different.

who was Swishers youth baseball coach Pablo Escobar ?

Matt Barnes knows very little about baseball but heโ€™s the perfect host for this. Iโ€™ve only watched 2 episodes this one and Chase Utley and itโ€™s by far the best baseball podcast!

In the US it's way too easy to get a driver's license Connecticut is no exception. Kids grow up on their devices, they have less awareness of what's going on around them. Highways in Germany have vehicles legally traveling well over 120mph everyday with no weaving and few accidents. It's much harder to get a driving license there and they take it much more seriously.

Swish was so nice talking about Ozzie. It is clear that he is an ahole. Ozzie was the guy that coached in Miami and found the way to offend Cuban fans

great energy with this guy...but as a Toronto native must respectfully HATE the pinstripes. ๐Ÿ˜Š Also I love baseball but it's a joke the way the system is. 400 mill vs. 80...just silly

When I was about 15 I went to the Yankees spring training in Tampa. Swisher was signing autographs and I was in line really hoping he didnโ€™t leave before it was my turn. The security officer turned to him and said โ€œhey nick, hang around for a bit until you get to this kidโ€. He responded โ€œabsolutely bossโ€. When it was my turn my old man said thanks a lot man it means a lot. He responded to my dad โ€œare you kidding me man, thank you guys! I canโ€™t just believe Iโ€™m a Yankeeโ€. I will never forget that moment. Great human.

If Swish played in the 70s/80s heโ€™d be on that โ„๏ธ Imagine that energy ๐Ÿ˜…

I have a distinct childhood memory growing up in WV of watching Nick Swisher playing Safety and hitting my older brother (a rb) so hard that he fell at least twice trying to make it back to the sideline. This was in the first half and i don't think he got up off the bench until the game was over. ๐Ÿ˜‚ That's why swish became a professional athlete and my brother became an accountant. He absolutely stuck people. pretty sure he had a ND offer in football.

@HokiePitcher22

Always hated the Yankees but I fuck with Swish he seems like a great hang

Swish saying โ€œcuzโ€ every time he addresses Matt has me crying. Hella funny

@JimmyJavier

He's Def got add but it's great, its high energy and it raises the energy in the room on a postive way unless you're introverted and or very serious ๐Ÿ˜‚

great guest great sit down !!! die hard yankee fan and at the moment or in that time in 09 i liked the yankees team was still upset about leaving old yankee stadium loved that we won WS 1st year in new stadium but didn't really soak it in or live it liked i did the 90s dynasty but looking back now ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜ณ that 09 yankee team was loaded!!!! from 1-9 this team had everything!!! and wow swish!!! what a year!! he immediately clicked on this team like none other swish was just awesome!!!! and that 09 yankee team was dangerous!!!

51:00 , I agree to a point about burnout, but look at foreign countries......China, japan, Latin america, they practice and train way more than majority of American children athletes....and they've taken over, making us look fat, lazy, spoiled....... so where is the line? I do not know.

I wanted to comment because I'm from the Mid Ohio Valley & Nick & His Dad Steve graduated from Parkersburg, Wv which is 20 minutes from where ive grown up & lived to this day!! The swishers, Randy Moss & White Chocolate were 1.5 hours south, Pat Patterson, OJ Mayo, and Mike Bartrum. Those are our pros.
