We kick things off with a quick Little League coaching update and some Wimbledon thoughts ahead of the finals this weekend (0:00). Then we share initial MLB Draft thoughts - full breakdown coming after the draft on Sunday (6:47).
From there, we dive into the Yankees-Mariners series (11:04): DJ LeMahieu has officially been DFA’d - what it means for the third base spot moving forward, and why it was refreshing to see the Yankees make a tough decision. We break down Thursday night’s wild comeback win after getting no-hit through seven innings, Cam Schlittler’s electric MLB debut with his parents in the crowd, and a great slide from Volpe.
We wrap with our MLB Week in Review (33:40): the Dodgers have now lost six straight - are we worried yet? Milwaukee’s sweep might shift the NL Central race, the Red Sox have won seven straight and are in playoff position, and Colt Keith is mashing as the Tigers keep winning. Plus, is a sneaky Guardians trade on the way, there were runs galore in Anaheim, the Padres pitched to Eugenio Suárez instead of Josh Naylor (and it worked?), the Mets keep sliding, PCA joins the 25/25 club, and more from around the league.
