We break down the Yankees' 9-2 win over the Red Sox, Sonny Gray's early exit and sticky stuff, and look ahead to the Rays series while debating Aaron Judge's roster status. After rounding up MLB playoff action with Cody Bellinger, Bryce Harper, and the White Sox, we touch on Jameis Winston's thoughts on JJ McCarthy before discussing Phil Mickelson's therapy and comparisons to Tiger Woods. Finally, we turn to football with a Steelers-Browns preview, NFL line guessing, and a debate on whether McCarthy or Tommy DeVito is more likely to start.
Real October baseball is officially here on October 1st as we question who will step up as the next Mr. October for the Yankees. Callers flooded the show with hot takes, calling out Boomer and demanding "loser" Aaron Judge stay off the roster. Jerry returned with updates from the Yankees' win over the Red Sox—featuring Cody Bellinger's three-run blast—plus postgame sounds from Suzyn Waldman, Ben Rice labeling Volpe a champagne-bottle menace, and reactions from the Red Sox locker room. Finally, Jerry rounded up the rest of the MLB playoff action, Jameis Winston shared his thoughts on bonding with JJ McCarthy, and Mike Tomlin revealed the Minecraft city he's been building for 12 years.
We kick off with a preview of tonight's Steelers-Browns game and a round of "guess the spread" before debating whether JJ McCarthy or Tommy DeVito is more likely to start. After a caller claims all the pressure is on a returning Aaron Judge, we discover Rami takes boxing lessons. Jerry returns for an update, but Gio first has Rami rank the angriest staff member, leading into Cody Bellinger's three-run homer and Sonny Gray's frustration over being pulled after 70 pitches. Finally, the Moment of the Day features a caller demanding "loser" Aaron Judge stay out of the lineup, and Boomer unexpectedly closes the show by explaining how they put a horse down.
We kick off with the Yankees' 9-2 win over the Red Sox after Boston pulled Sonny Gray early, giving New York the momentum heading into Tampa. Gio isn't worried about the Yankees' offense, expects a 70% Yankee crowd on the road, highlights the unchecked sticky stuff on Gray's neck, and explains why the White Sox are baseball's best story. Jerry delivers his first update with Cody Bellinger's three-run homer, Max Fried on the playoff atmosphere, Gray's thoughts on his early exit, and Bryce Harper making up for a costly error with a game-tying blast. Finally, Jameis Winston reacts to the Giants signing JJ McCarthy, and we wrap up with a preview of the Rays series and whether Aaron Judge makes the roster.
Yankees vs Rays is the real ALCS. All disrespect to the Guardians and White Sox intended. Tommy expects Aaron Judge to return and for Yankee fans to make their presence known down at the Trop.
Jason Smith and Mike Harmon tell you if the Yankees thumping the Red Sox like this without Aaron Judge is “team of destiny” type stuff. MLB Insider Jon Paul Morosi joined our Wild Card party. And the guys reacted in real time to the Steelers trading star CB Joey Porter Jr. to the Dallas Cowboys!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Deja Vu and joy in Yankee Land! Another night with great starting pitching on both sides and another night with surprisingly good hitting up and down the lineup.Nothing feels better than sending the Boston Red Sox home, and this one is a full-on Bronx-style celebration. We react to the Yankees' 9-2 playoff win that eliminates Boston again, and we dig into how the game swings from tense to lopsided in a hurry. The best part: the Yankees put up nine runs without Aaron Judge and without Giancarlo Stanton, which tells you this lineup can win with depth, not just star power.I talk through Max Fried's start in detail, because it's a weird one: plenty of deep counts, plenty of traffic, and still six innings of strong work when it matters most. That “effectively wild” postseason outing is a win, but it also sets up a big ALDS question about command and what happens if he falls behind like that against a tougher lineup. I also highlight how fresh the bullpen stays thanks to two straight nights of quality starting pitching.At the plate, it's a true team game. I break down the turning point when Boston pulls Sonny Gray early, then the Yankees punish the Red Sox bullpen with rally after rally. Cody Bellinger drives in four, Garcia sparks the offense, and Austin Wells keeps delivering in October. And yes, even in a blowout, I have to talk about the defense, because one maddening Grisham play nearly makes me lose it.Subscribe for more Yankees playoff talk, share this with a friend who hates Boston as much as we do, and leave a review so more fans can find the show.Send fan mailJersey Guy Sports is available on all podcasting platforms.

Aaron Judge is getting older and had an injury-riddled season. Cal Raleigh fell off in historic fashion. Garrett Crochet might have the widest range of outcomes for any player in 2027.

Rob and Kelvin explain why it’s so disappointing to see Deion Sanders be such a vocal proponent of the Protect College Sports Act, share their thoughts on the New York Yankees’ decision to leave Aaron Judge off their Wild Card roster, and take a trip out to Shekel City for Rob's nightly bets. Plus, former NFL offensive lineman and FOX Sports Radio Weekend host Ephraim Salaam swings by to discuss all the biggest headlines around the world of football.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Aaron Judge was noticeably absent from the Yankees' pregame player introductions despite being in the dugout supporting his teammates, creating an unexpected controversy after their dominant win. Evan Roberts, Tiki Barber and Shaun Morash debate why Judge stayed off the field and whether he was simply trying to keep the attention on the active roster or sending a message about his playoff status. The crew also wonders if Judge's decision actually created more attention than an introduction would have. Plus, callers react to Cam Schlittler's intense demeanor, and the conversation returns to Aaron Boone's willingness to push his ace beyond the pitch-count limits Yankees fans have become accustomed to.
Cam Schlittler overwhelmed the Red Sox again, and Aaron Boone finally managed like he had a horse worth riding. Evan Roberts, Tiki Barber and Shaun Morash break down Schlittler's dominant postseason performance, Boone's decision to push him deep despite a rising pitch count, and why the Yankees' starting rotation may have become the identity that can carry them through October. They also contrast Boone's aggressive approach with Boston pulling Peyton Tolle after just 83 pitches. Aaron Judge also created an unexpected pregame mystery by not taking part in the Yankees' on-field introductions despite being in the dugout supporting his teammates. The crew debates whether Judge was simply keeping the spotlight on the active roster or whether his absence reflected frustration with how the Yankees handled his injury and playoff status.
Yankees fans got crushed for booing when pitching coach Matt Blake visited Cam Schlittler, but Evan Roberts comes to their defense. He explains why the emotional playoff atmosphere, limited sightlines and fear of Schlittler being removed made the reaction understandable, while pushing back on the idea that the crowd simply didn't know baseball. The conversation shifts to just how quickly the Yankees have moved from the Aaron Judge and Gerrit Cole era toward a young core led by Schlittler and Ben Rice. Evan, Tiki Barber and Shaun Morash credit Brian Cashman for building that group without a painful transition, revisit the Michael King trade, and explain why Boston already has plenty of reason to despise the Yankees' newest young stars.
Cam Schlittler dominated the Red Sox again, and Aaron Boone made the kind of old-school decision Yankees fans have been begging to see. Evan Roberts, Tiki Barber and Shaun Morash break down Boone pushing Schlittler past 110 pitches, why Boston's early hook of Peyton Tolle backfired, and how trusting the starter helped set the tone for a convincing Yankees win. The bigger takeaway may be the Yankees' postseason identity. Instead of living and dying with Aaron Judge and home runs, this team can lean on a dominant rotation. After Schlittler's latest performance against Boston, the crew argues Boone has to keep riding his starting pitching if the Yankees are going to make a deep October run.

Steve Adams joins Darragh McDonald to discuss Aaron Judge being left off the Yankees' Wild Card roster, the plan for Garrett Crochet to pitch out of Boston's bullpen, whether the Rangers will scale back their payroll next year, how the Diamondbacks could build around their core, and news that Ben Cherington expects to return as Pirates' GM following a winning season.Listener email topics include what the Guardians' low-payroll success could mean for CBA negotiations, which managerial opening is the most appealing, whether Kyle Harrison is a good extension candidate, what teams would benefit most from a system with a salary cap and floor, and which Cubs free agent is most likely to resign with the team.
C-Mac is celebrating LIVE from Yankee Stadium after Cam Schlittler once again owned the Red Sox in playoff action, moving the Bombers to within one win of the ALDS! Chris is joined by Shaun Morash to break down Schlittler's dominance, Ben Rice's big night at the plate, the homegrown youngsters coming through with the bat, and how the Yankees are set up the rest of the series.EPISODE HIGHLIGHTSIntro: Live from Yankee Stadium with initial reactions to the Yankees' 9-0 Wild Card Game 1 shutout over the Red Sox.2:37: Shaun Marash joins the show to praise Cam Schlittler's masterful curveball and his stress-free, 117-pitch performance.7:46: The game breakers - Ben Rice hits two massive home runs, including the grand slam that turned a close game into a laugher.12:50: The "Young Blood" steps up - How homegrown talent like George Lombard Jr. (three hits, two runs), Anthony Volpe, and Spencer Jones powered the lineup.15:03: Roman Anthony's wrist injury and a heavily depleted Red Sox bullpen.27:18: Rickie Ricardo drops by to declare the Red Sox on the ropes and call for a two-game sweep.38:22: Aaron Judge missing from pre-game field introductions, roster decisions, and setting up the rotation for Game 2 against Max Fried.
That's how to start the post season, right?! Yet another DOMINATING start by Schlittler against the Sox, and Ben Rice with a 4 for 5 night that included 2 homers, a grand slam, a double and 11 total bases and 6 RBIs. The team in general did very well against an excellent lefty Sox starter in Tolle.A 9-0 Yankees win over the Red Sox to open the 2026 postseason is more than a scoreboard flex. It's a stress reliever, a tone-setter, and a reminder that October stories don't wait for perfect conditions, especially not when Aaron Judge isn't even on the roster for the series and you're still searching for reliable thunder behind him. I walk through how Game 1 flips the mood in the Bronx, from the early tension of a tight pitching duel to the moment the game finally cracks wide open. I start with Cam Schlittler, because this is what ace behavior looks like in playoff baseball. He mows through Boston with power, command, and a noticeable curveball uptick that keeps hitters guessing all night. Then I get to the main event: Ben Rice putting together a playoff performance that feels unreal even as you're watching it, two home runs, a grand slam, and run production that changes how the Yankees can manage their bullpen for the rest of the Wild Card round. I also dig into the supporting cast and the choices that come with it: Lombard Jr. jumping into the spotlight, Volpe holding down second base, Austin Wells delivering key at-bats, and the tension around Aaron Boone's lineup decisions with Jazz Chisholm on the bench. Finally, I look ahead to Game 2 at Yankee Stadium, Max Fried vs Sonny Gray, and why closing it out matters if you want to avoid the chaos of a winner-take-all Game 3.

Aaron Judge is officially off the Yankees' Wild Card roster, and Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber debate why the organization finally overruled its superstar. Judge wanted to play, but the Yankees appear unwilling to risk their long-term investment with the season hanging on a best-of-three series against Boston. Evan argues there can be no Judge excuse if the Yankees lose. Meanwhile, Giancarlo Stanton is somehow back after not playing since April 24. Evan praises Stanton's postseason toughness and believes he could still deliver a memorable October moment as a dangerous bat off the bench. The conversation turns to Stanton's complicated Yankees legacy, his remarkable playoff availability despite years of regular-season injuries, Trent Grisham's return, and how the Yankees should build their roster around a rotation expected to carry a heavy postseason workload.
Aaron Judge is officially off the Yankees' Wild Card roster, forcing New York into its biggest postseason test without its superstar. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber debate whether the Yankees made the right call protecting Judge, who wanted to play despite the injury risk, and why his absence cannot become an excuse if they lose to Boston.
The Yankees finally open their Wild Card showdown with the Red Sox, and Evan Roberts argues Boston's season was built on one historic hot streak surrounded by long stretches of mediocre baseball. That puts even more pressure on the Yankees to take care of business at Yankee Stadium, with Cam Schlittler on the mound and Gerrit Cole potentially waiting for a winner-take-all Game 3. The bigger consequence could come for Aaron Boone. Evan believes a series loss to Boston could end Boone's Yankees tenure, while Tiki Barber and Shaun Morash weigh how much Aaron Judge's situation and the short-series format could factor into that decision. Plus, the Giants' trade for J.J. McCarthy, John Harbaugh's plans at quarterback, and an early Rangers season prediction.
Odell Beckham Jr.'s return to the Giants ends without a single catch as Shaun Morash and Tiki Barber react to his release and debate whether his brief comeback will even be remembered. They also examine the Giants' aggressive approach, the J.J. McCarthy move and whether Joey Porter Jr. is worth the draft capital and massive contract that could come with a trade. The conversation shifts to Aaron Judge missing the Yankees' postseason roster, whether playing in the World Baseball Classic deserves any blame, and the bizarre wave of stars returning just in time for October. Joe Musgrove's comeback after nearly two years away sparks a heated debate over whether players who miss the entire regular season should be eligible for the playoffs.
Aaron Boone's future could hinge on this Wild Card series against Boston. Evan Roberts believes a loss to the Red Sox may be enough for the Yankees to move on, arguing that Brian Cashman has historically reached a breaking point with managers after long runs without a championship. Tiki Barber and Shaun Morash debate whether Aaron Judge's situation, the short-series format, or even an upcoming lockout could influence that decision. The conversation also turns to what Evan actually wants from the Yankees this postseason, including a potential ALCS matchup with Houston. Then Shaun closes the hour with his Cinco de Lunch, unloading five reasons Boston sucks ahead of Yankees-Red Sox and Rangers-Bruins.
Giancarlo Stanton's return sparks a passionate defense of his Yankees legacy. Evan Roberts argues that despite all the missed regular-season time, Stanton has repeatedly found a way to be available when October arrives, and his postseason production deserves far more respect than it gets. That leads directly back to Aaron Judge. Evan believes Judge wanted to play in the Wild Card round, but the Yankees stepped in and protected their long-term investment, while Stanton was given the green light because his future carries far less risk. The conversation also turns to Boston activating Garrett Crochet after months away, Trent Grisham making the Yankees roster, and the remarkable number of major roster gambles surrounding this Yankees-Red Sox series.
