#116: No Judge No Offense
The Yankees have seemingly NOTHING without Aaron Judge and now it's REALLY time to send down Anthony Volpe. And oh, no one is catching Tampa.

The Yankees have seemingly NOTHING without Aaron Judge and now it's REALLY time to send down Anthony Volpe. And oh, no one is catching Tampa.
Anthony Volpe, Tristan Casas -- send them down? And why good pitching may be unavailable at the deadline.
Find a better division in sports. Plus, John contemplates life without Giancarlo Stanton, and Brian just contemplates.
Yankees and Sox battling it out for the basement! But it could make for one heck of a weird and compelling Wild Card race that could heat up WAY EARLIER than usual.
The Yankees are struggling, and John is freaking out. Kind of amazing that two teams can be next to each other in standings yet the "feel" is so different.
You may know the name. Managed the Pirates. Even led Colorado to a World Series. But he is WAY more than that. From SI cover to how and why he's still in baseball. Perhaps, our best conversation yet.
Franchy rakes, Rays make Chaim look bad, and we talk beer and how Astros cheating may NEVER get old.
Pitch clock thumbs up and thumbs down to Sox pitching. We look at the season's great start!
Let the games begin! We predict all the divisions, call the World Series and also chime in on the pitch clock's impact.
As great as the drama was in the World Baseball Classic, we discuss why baseball MUST make the tournament bigger, just like soccer's World Cup.
The Red Sox boss on nervously watching the WBC and why Sox fans shouldn't be so glum. You can judge whether you are convinced!
The former Sox great talks about getting drafted by the YANKEES. Sure, there's the historic '75 season and what he's doing now... but there's also his time in Bristol, CT and his fishing "incidents" in downtown Boston. A must listen!
Evan Drellich has a new book out on the Astros cheating scandal. But it hits hard for both Yankee and Red Sox fans. Big time.
Boos on one side ... sighs of relief on the other. Can you guess? Plus, Super Bowl picks!!
Rafael Devers gets his $300 Million. Is it a good deal? Which mega deal IS the best? We break it all down!
A college baseball career was supposed to turn into a pro career. Instead, Jackson Olson is a full-time TikTok-er and a Savanah Banana. And doing GREAT. An amazing story.
Two huge deals. Two franchises with wildly different approaches. Is Brian done with Boston? Are Yankee fans good now?
Aaron Judge gets the MVP, but when will we know the AAV? All quiet on the signing front.... but for how long?
We put a ribbon on the season and find some reason to like the Astros win. But really, it's all about Aaron Judge and our evolving views on what could (or should) happen.
The Yankees are done. Is Brian Cashman done, too? Aaron Boone? And of course, we talk about Aaron Judge's next move, as well as our World Series predictions!
Down to four teams, we pick the winners. As for losers, what was up with the Cleveland Guardians? Cradling babies and missing calls. We tip our cap to Bryce Harper and shake our heads with Fernando Tatis, Jr.
We put a ribbon on Aaron Judge's record and pick winners for every Wild Card series. Fear the Rays...feel bad for the Mets.
Yankees playoff plans are set, so all that's left is for Aaron Judge to hit his dingers. Plus, we put Albert Pujols' 700 HRs in proper perspective.
Will he do it? When will he do it? Will the Sox pitch to him? Who will be able to see it? Oy, so many questions! But it IS exciting.
It looks the Red Sox could play spoiler for Yankees. IF ... IF the Yankees implode, might Derek Jeter take over? Also, we talk rule changes and Albert Pujols. We all agree on what he'll do. Tune in to find out.
If Aaron Judge hits 62, what does that mean? Would he be the TRUE Home Run King? YES! Fire Bloom and Cora? And we discuss John's trip to High-A Ball.
The Red Sox are done. They can't win more than 75% of their remaining games. No way. Plus, the ghost of John Senecal on the most recent Subway Series.
Can't hit. Can't pitch. Can't win. Not the Sox. The Yankees! Can Giancarlo Stanton come back already? Plus, the disgrace of Fernando Tatis, Jr and the grace of Albert Pujols (should he come back next year to get 700?
The Red Sox and the Yankees are in trouble. However, only one has a future. We delve into both, and also the magic of Aaron Judge and the upstart Baltimore Orioles.
Some big deals and some head scratchers. Brian is on the verge of dropping season tickets while John wonders whether Jordan Montgomery was a problem off the field. We break down a pretty crazy MLB trade deadline.
