The Jets' quarterback search could take a massive turn if a proven star becomes available. Evan Roberts, Tiki Barber and Shaun Morash run through the NFL's biggest names and debate which quarterbacks could realistically land in New York. Joe Burrow has a slim but believable path, Jalen Hurts looks like an intriguing fit, and C.J. Stroud could become fascinating if Houston takes a major step backward. They also explain why Dak Prescott, Matthew Stafford and other veteran options may not be worth sacrificing the Jets' three first-round picks. The conversation expands into whether Mike Tomlin could someday make the Jets more attractive, plus the pressure surrounding the Giants as John Harbaugh prepares to coach games that count. The Yankees also enter the spotlight as Brian Cashman and Aaron Boone face the only test that will truly define their season: October.

The Jets' quarterback plan is already under fire. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber question why Cade Klubnik is the only real insurance behind Geno Smith, with Tiki warning the Jets may simply have no plan if Geno goes down. They debate Jimmy Garoppolo, Will Levis and Joe Milton as alternatives, while wondering whether the franchise is repeating the same mistake it made behind Aaron Rodgers. The Mets finally give Yankees fans something to celebrate by beating Tampa Bay, only for the Yankees to waste the opportunity with an ugly loss to the Angels. Plus, Aaron Boone's bullpen decisions get defended, Trent Grisham's role comes under fire, and Spencer Jones makes a strong case to stay in the Yankees lineup every day.

Chris “Mad Dog” Russo joins Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber and declares the Yankees have no excuse not to reach the World Series, arguing their payroll and the state of the American League put major pressure on Aaron Boone and the organization. Russo also unloads on the Mets for letting Pete Alonso leave, putting more blame on Steve Cohen than David Stearns and raising concerns about the clubhouse dynamic involving Francisco Lindor and Juan Soto. Plus, Mad Dog pumps the brakes on the Jaxson Dart hype while predicting the Giants will be better under John Harbaugh, and reflects on WFAN joining SiriusXM and what he still misses about local New York sports radio.

The Yankees' season comes down to one brutal standard: reach the World Series or face another disaster. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber debate whether Brian Cashman and Aaron Boone deserve more credit for navigating injuries and roster issues, but Evan makes clear that none of it will matter if October ends early. The postseason will ultimately decide how every move, lineup decision and deadline addition is remembered. The final stretch also features Shaun Morash's best parts of September, including John Harbaugh finally coaching meaningful Giants games and Aaron Judge nearing a return. Plus, Evan refuses to entertain Nets fans comparing Brooklyn's failed superteam to the champion Knicks, while his Mets scoreless-game streak faces a major test once football Sundays arrive.

Some comments made during the Red Sox broadcast against the Yankees yesterday are coming under fire. Did Jazz Chisholm do anything wrong by stealing bases with the Yankees up by many runs? Michael talked to Aaron Boone & gets the scoop on that. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The Jets' endless quarterback search takes center stage as Joe Burrow emerges as the dream solution if Cincinnati ever makes him available. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber debate why trading premium draft capital for a proven franchise quarterback could beat taking another swing in the draft, while weighing Jalen Hurts, Baker Mayfield and the Jets' missed opportunities with Jaxson Dart and Tyler Shough. The conversation also turns to the Yankees taking three of four from Boston, Red Sox broadcaster Will Fleming's apology after ripping Jazz Chisholm, and whether Aaron Boone showed enough urgency. Plus, the Giants' Odell Beckham Jr. expectations, a wild Super Bowl prediction, and the Jets' long history of first-round disappointments.

The Yankees may have slammed the door on Boston's playoff hopes, but the Rays are suddenly creating a new problem. Evan Roberts, Tiki Barber and Shaun Morash debate whether the Yankees have effectively locked up the top wild-card spot, why Tampa Bay's bizarre late-game wins feel dangerous, and whether the AL East race is truly over. They also revisit Aaron Boone's controversial lineup choices against Boston, David Cone seemingly predicting Elliott Ramos' three-run homer moments before it happened, and the bigger problem with MLB replay. The hour closes with a debate over position players pitching in blowouts and whether baseball is eventually headed toward a mercy rule.

Evan Roberts, and Shaun Morash discuss George Lombard Jr.'s defensive struggles and what it could mean for the postseason. Plus: -Why won't Aaron Boone give Lombard a day off? -Chris McMonigle gives his thoughts on Lombard -Craig Carton says Yankees should have pushed Gerrit Cole back for Red Sox

George Lombard Jr. has made an error in six straight games, but Evan Roberts agrees with Aaron Boone that sitting him now could make the mental problem worse. Shaun Morash wants Lombard to get a breather as the Yankees open a huge series against the Red Sox.

On this week’s edition of Inside the (Rob) Parker, Rob discusses why it's too little, too late for Seattle Mariners slugger Cal Raleigh, why Milwaukee Brewers ace Jacob Misiorowski should win the NL Cy Young Award in a landslide, and how New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone has established himself as the favorite to win the AL Manager of the Year award. Later, former MLB All-Star Dmitri Young checks in to discuss how he's looking to avoid making the wrong kind of history as the manager of the RedPocket Mobiles of the Pioneer Baseball League.

The Yankees' bullpen is raising serious October concerns as Evan Roberts and Shaun Morash question whether heavy workloads could force Aaron Boone to ride his starters deeper in the postseason. Plus, they debate Jazz Chisholm's costly non-steal and Boone's bizarre explanation before ripping SNY for cutting out during Francisco Lindor's spectacular catch.

The Yankees' bullpen is showing dangerous signs at the worst possible time. Evan Roberts and Shaun Morash, filling in for Tiki Barber, question whether heavy workloads for the bullpen could eventually undo a team built around a dominant starting rotation. If October arrives with the bullpen running on fumes, the Yankees may have no choice but to ride their starters deeper than usual. They also debate Jazz Chisholm not stealing in a critical eighth-inning spot and Aaron Boone's bizarre explanation that Jazz “attempted to.” Plus, SNY's feed cuts out at the exact moment Francisco Lindor makes a spectacular game-saving catch, George Lombard Jr.'s early defensive mistakes spark concern, and the Yankees' approach to pitching Yordan Alvarez comes under fire.

Tommy talks about the Yankees losing to the Astros on Tuesday night and Tommy talks with Rosenberg about behind the scenes happenings at WFAN.

Toronto is taking shots at the Yankees again, with Blue Jays radio hosts calling them a “dumb” baseball team and essentially guaranteeing they would beat New York in the playoffs. Evan pushes back hard, arguing this Yankees team is far different from last year's version, while the conversation turns to which AL East opponents actually present the biggest postseason danger. The hour also dives into Jets and Giants optimism, whether Jets fans are jealous of the excitement surrounding the Giants, and what Aaron Glenn needs to show to keep his job. Plus, Shaun Morash takes on the debut of the Aaron Boone nickname game, fantasy football's most annoying league members get ranked, and the crew debates why drafts should be held as close to Week 1 as possible.

Aaron Boone's endless Yankees nicknames finally become a game, and Shaun Morash gets put to the test on everything from “Bus” and “Izzy” to “Squid.” The results are rough, the nicknames get increasingly ridiculous, and even Boone's own family nickname enters the mix. The conversation then shifts to fantasy football, including the worst people to have in a league and why drafts should happen as close to Week 1 as possible. The hour closes with the Jets and Aaron Glenn, as the crew debates what Glenn must show to keep his job and why New York could suddenly become an appealing destination for a new head coach if things go badly again.

Evan and Shaun debate if the Jets can win 8-games this season, Malik Nabers vs. Garrett Wilson, Shaun guesses the Aaron Boone nickname, no-one cares about the Yankees-Astros rivalry anymore, and much more.

Next, Jerry's update covers Jazz Chisholm's homer in a Yankees win over the Blue Jays, audio from Ben Rice, players thanking Karl Ravech, Bruce Beck interviewing Jameis Winston, Deshaun Watson on going to Cleveland, Shedeur Sanders on getting booed, and Wyndham Clark's Tigers first pitch. Finally, Gio calls out a bad Good Good Golf and Callaway commercial, followed by a discussion on the WNBA's lack of leadership.

Giancarlo Stanton had another setback. While attempting to run the bases, he hurt his left calf. The previous two times that he tried running the bases he hurt his right calf. We also talked about Aaron Boone's odds of winning Manager of the year.

Evan and Tiki discuss if the prognosis is truly as optimistic as Aaron Boone made it out to be, and wonder how the Yanks continue to survive this injury wave. Plus, Boomer and Jerry wonder how long the Yanks can stay afloat with so many key players out, Craig Carton and Emmanuel Berbari discuss the starting rotation without Fried, and is George Lombard Jr. the spark that can take the Yanks on a deep playoff run?

Jerry and C-Lo break down preseason NFL odds to reveal their biggest surprises along with the players and teams they view as over or undervalued. Peter returns for an update and we touch upon his weight loss before playing audio from a jovial Aaron Boone following a Yankees victory over the Orioles. Jerry and C-Lo validate Craig's theory regarding the origin of Boone's pointing, and the hour wraps up with Jerry playing a game of true or false with a listener.

Jerry and C-Lo step in for Boomer & Gio as the Yankees sweep the Orioles, proving their World Series formula with only the Rays standing in their way in the AL. After breaking down heated Giants-Dolphins joint practices, the Islanders' new third jersey, and Jacob deGrom's milestone strikeout, the guys preview Geno Smith's Jets start, Michael Kay's wild broadcast call, and their all-time best and worst concerts. Next, they dive into NFL preseason odds, the origin of Aaron Boone's pointing, and a listener True or False game, before Willie Colon calls in live from Pittsburgh to preview Jets-Steelers. The show wraps up with a debate on the Mets' playoff hopes, an unexpected Moment of the Day, and a preview of tomorrow's Giants game in Miami.

The Pete Alonso controversy gets even louder as Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber compare the stunned reactions from Yankees and Orioles broadcasters after Alonso's apparent home run remained a foul ball. Even Yankees voices admit they caught a break, while Baltimore's broadcasts are left furious over a decision that looked impossible to explain from the angles shown on television. Then the frustration turns into conspiracy talk, with Orioles radio questioning whether the New York-based replay center somehow favored the Yankees. Evan and Tiki dismiss that theory while explaining why the original call on the field was so difficult to overturn. Aaron Boone also weighs in with the one opinion almost nobody else seemed to share: he thought the ball was foul.

Jerry asks Boomer why playing in New York is so tough for athletes, leading to a Jets fan's "festival of pain" motto and a debate on championship grace periods. C-Lo returns for an update as Dylan Beavers' HR in a Yankees win prompts a tangent on rabid beavers, Aaron Boone reacts to Pete Alonso's foul ball, and Boomer shows off listener drawings. Finally, Scottie Scheffler's thoughts on LIV golfers returning lead to a discussion on sports league competition, LIV's demise, and what price it would take to work for a competitor in an undesirable location.

The Yankees keep surviving, but every game feels like a struggle. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber debate whether New York deserves credit for staying afloat through a brutal run of injuries or criticism for barely playing .500 baseball despite outstanding pitching. Aaron Judge is making slow progress, Giancarlo Stanton is moving closer to a return, and Aaron Boone's comments make Max Fried's injured-list stint sound more precautionary than catastrophic. Jazz Chisholm is becoming another source of frustration. His bat has disappeared, the strikeouts are piling up, and a defensive mistake has Evan questioning whether Chisholm should still be guaranteed everyday at-bats. The Yankees may be headed for October, but getting Judge, Stanton and Fried healthy at the right time could determine how far they actually go.

Max Fried is back on the injured list with the same elbow issue that already sidelined him for nearly two months, and Evan Roberts fears the Yankees may not see him pitch again this season. Evan and Tiki Barber break down why the recurrence is so alarming, whether even an optimistic Aaron Boone update can be trusted, and how Fried's absence suddenly puts more pressure on Carlos Rodon, Garrett Cole, Ryan Weathers and the rest of the rotation. The injury also revives the trade deadline debate over Tarik Skubal and the warning that teams can never have enough pitching. Plus, the guys explain how the American League playoff schedule could help the Yankees survive with only three starters in the Division Series.

Evan Roberts, Tiki Barber, and Paul Rosenberg debate Jaxson Dart's tendency to wind up in the NFL's infamous "blue tents," the Yankees' survival, why Evan isn't buying the Mets hype, and whether or not Cade Klubnik looked like a real NFL quarterback in the preseason.

Luis Garcia Jr. is forcing the Yankees into a difficult lineup decision, and Shaun Morash believes Aaron Boone cannot let Jazz Chisholm Jr.'s feelings stand in the way. If the Yankees get healthy, Garcia's bat has to remain in the lineup, which could mean preparing him for second base before the postseason instead of waiting until it is too late. Tiki Barber and Shaun also revisit some of the wildest preseason moments in Giants and Jets history, from Victor Cruz's breakout and Lawrence Taylor's legendary mic'd-up performance to devastating injuries involving Jason Sehorn and Mark Sanchez. Plus, the Giants' cornerback depth becomes an urgent concern after missing out on Terry and Arnold.

Jazz Chisholm's struggles are creating a major Yankees lineup problem, especially against left-handed pitching. The debate turns to whether Luis Garcia Jr. needs to take over at second base and whether Aaron Boone must start experimenting now instead of waiting for October. That could mean Giancarlo Stanton returning to the outfield, Trent Grisham sitting, or Jazz losing playing time to keep the Yankees' best bats in the lineup. Plus, Spencer Jones' future gets debated, the Giants' running back situation comes into focus, and Aaron Glenn's ability to survive another losing Jets season may depend on just how dominant his defense becomes.

Aaron Glenn could be trapped by the Jets' biggest weakness. Shaun Morash is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber, and they debate whether an elite defense can save Glenn if Geno Smith and the offense fail to score enough points. With the Jets potentially forced to win on the margins, every game could become part of the evaluation of Glenn's future. The Yankees also face a looming October lineup problem. Jazz Chisholm's struggles against lefties spark a debate over Luis Garcia Jr., Giancarlo Stanton, Trent Grisham and how Aaron Boone can keep his best bats in the lineup. Plus, the Giants' running back situation, Cade Klubnik's opportunity, J.J. McCarthy speculation, Tiki's rookie encounter with Christian Peter, and the return of football tailgates at MetLife.

Blue Jays radio play-by-play voice Ben Shulman (2:55) joins Jeff and Kevin to discuss the confidence John Schneider and the coaching staff have in putting Brett Bateman leading off the order, how Shane Bieber can learn from his start against the Phillies now against the visiting New York Yankees, the clubhouse's mood against a division rival, the Jays' struggles with using the ABS, Jesús Sánchez's future playing everyday, Paul Sewald's deployment, and if Gerrit Cole has a upper hand in facing Toronto for the first time since 2024. Then, Yankees radio colour commentator Suzyn Waldman stops by (27:00) to chat about what has changed for Cole since Tommy John surgery, if George Lombard Jr. has solidified his spot as New York's shortstop of the future, how Ben Rice has adjusted his hitting without Aaron Judge around him, when Yankees fans can expect Judge will return, and if Aaron Boone has navigated his way in securing AL Manager of the Year.  The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

Mike Tirico admits he might not have taken the golf job had he known the heavy criticism he'd face, leading into a discussion on Tony Romo's situation at CBS and Gio's theory that the network is trying to escape his massive contract. Next, C-Lo returns with updates on Aaron Boone withholding scoops from Jomboy Media and Mike McDaniel insisting on keeping hot players in the game. Finally, Mike Vrabel completely side-steps a question about therapy by rambling about the team instead.

Shaun Morash and Tiki Barber debate whether George Lombard Jr. or Jaxson Dart will have the better New York sports career -- and work through Shaun's hatred of "Rudy" while taking calls about other sports movies.

George Lombard Jr. has given the Yankees something they desperately needed: energy, confidence and a reason to believe their offense can finally look different. Shaun Morash is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber, and Shaun argues Lombard's impact goes far beyond the box score. His defense, speed, poise and ability to create runs have made him look ready for an even bigger role. Tiki remains cautious because the Yankees still struggle badly to score, but their dominant starting pitching has created a legitimate path to winning in October. The biggest question is whether Aaron Boone should stop treating Lombard like a typical rookie and move him straight to the top of the lineup.

The Yankees' offense has become impossible to trust, and a potential Wild Card matchup with the Red Sox suddenly looks dangerous. Shaun Morash and Tiki Barber admit Boston would be the pick right now, while warning that a playoff loss after last year's World Series run could force major organizational consequences. The frustration extends to Jazz Chisholm, whose struggles have opened the door for Jose Caballero to steal playing time. They debate Aaron Boone's willingness to bench struggling veterans, the Yankees' obsession with platoon matchups, Spencer Jones earning a longer runway, and whether elite starting pitching can overcome a lineup that simply cannot score enough runs.

The Yankees finally have the dominant starting pitching they've been missing, but their lifeless offense threatens to waste it. Shaun Morash is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber, and Shaun sees reasons for optimism after the Yankees took two of three from Atlanta, especially with George Lombard Jr. injecting energy, defense and confidence into the lineup. Tiki remains far more concerned about a team that has played .500 baseball without Aaron Judge and still struggles to score. The debate turns to whether Lombard should already be hitting leadoff, how much patience Aaron Boone should have with Jazz Chisholm and Trent Grisham, and whether the Yankees can survive a potential Wild Card showdown with the surging Red Sox. Even with Judge and Cody Bellinger potentially returning, the Yankees may need their pitching to carry them in October.

Trent Grisham can't keep leading off for the Yankees. Evan Roberts and Shaun Morash argue Aaron Boone needs to make an immediate lineup change, with Ben Rice and Luis García Jr. emerging as better options to spark an offense that has gone cold. They also examine Max Fried's wildly uneven postseason history and whether Yankees fans can fully trust him in October.

Evan Roberts has finally surrendered on the Yankees winning the American League East. After two months of lifeless offense, mounting injuries and a growing deficit behind the Rays, Evan declares the division race over and predicts the Yankees are headed for the wild card. Shaun Morash is in for Tiki Barber alongside Evan Roberts, and he refuses to concede, arguing that Aaron Judge, Cody Bellinger and a softer September schedule could fuel one final charge. The frustration explodes over Aaron Boone's decision to remove Luis Garcia Jr. from a close loss, leaving Ali Sánchez to bat with the game on the line. Evan and Shaun debate whether Boone misunderstood Brian Cashman's plan for Ben Rice, whether Cashman failed to add enough offense at the deadline and why Trent Grisham cannot remain the leadoff hitter. Plus, Evan makes a stunning prediction about the next New York team to win its division.
