In today’s episode, we kick things off with William’s travel nightmare getting home yesterday, a chat about the pressure on airplane mechanics, and an unexpected dive into Dubai chocolate (0:00). Then, we break down why it feels like there are more compelling MLB storylines than usual down the stretch this season, and we highlight some of the biggest ones to watch (7:14).
From there, it’s another tough Yankees segment as we recap the Yankees-Astros series (13:08) — yet another series loss, this time to Houston. We talk Devin Williams’ latest blowup, Old Timers’ Day, Trent Grisham’s clutch home run, and another lifeless loss on Sunday. Where does the team go from here? Are we at rock bottom? Who needs to step up? Could Aaron Boone be cooked? We also touch on Carlos Correa’s brilliance since returning to Houston and whether Jose Altuve is a first-ballot Hall of Famer (Yankee fans, please stop booing him).
We wrap with our MLB Weekend in Review (42:58): Milwaukee’s unbelievable run and the Mets’ unbelievable collapse, Seattle riding high, San Diego knocking on the Dodgers’ doorstep, Cal Raleigh’s MVP case, the Cubs’ continued struggles, the Cardinals’ quiet push, Philly’s winning ways, and much more.
