- A-Rod Frenzy at Fenway: On Sunday, Alex Rodriguez saw the first pitch of his plate appearance from Ryan Dempster sail behind him, the next two come far inside, and the fourth hit him on the upper arm. What ensued was nothing short of theatrical. Joe Girardi being the only one tossed, revenge for Rodriguez in the sixth with a home run, and denial by Dempster and skipper John Farrell in the post-game interviews. All this transpiring as information continues to be leaked in Major League Baseball's case against A-Rod. What should we make of all this? We break it down.

- Another Hit on Braun's Already Bad Reputation: Reports have surfaced that former league MVP Ryan Braun told multiple stars around baseball before spring training last season that the man who collected his urine that tested positive for synthetic testosterone was an anti-Semitic Cubs fan, in hopes the players would stick up for him following an expected suspension. With the fallen star rumored to be ready to acknowledge he doped and offer a public apology, should anyone care what he has to say? Hear our take.

- Will Tebow Make the Team?: Tim Tebow has looked horrendous in New England's first two preseason games, which begs the question; will he make the final roster? We take a closer look at Tebow's brief stint with the Pats and discuss the possibilities moving forward.

Plus:

We debate the potential impact of losing Von Miller for an extended period of time has on Denver's Super Bowl aspirations, and hit on recent comments made by Floyd Mayweather in regards to Manny Pacquiao!

All this and much more in this week's edition of The Bleacher Briefings podcast!
