On deck: (6:32) It's time to overreact to what took place over the course of NFL Week 1. Are the Bills the class of the AFC? Is Aaron Rodgers turning back the clock? Have the Chiefs plight begun? How bad was the Ravens collapse in Buffalo last night? I'll answer all of that and then some as I'll recap the opening weekend. CORRECTION: I stated that the Falcons got out to a 10-0 lead in their game vs. Tampa Bay. That was not the case. I was wrong on that. My apologies for the blatant error. (31:08) Was there baseball played over the weekend? Of course there was, but you couldn't tell by the AL Wild Card race as it's literally status quo from the last time we saw it late last week. I'll also touch on the death of former Mets manager Davey Johnson who passed away at the age of 82. (42:22) College football had a couple of surprising upsets on Saturday, but it was Oklahoma QB John Mateer stealing the show from the Michigan as they topped the Wolverines in Norman, OK. (45:01) Carlos Alcaraz captures the rubber match of Grand Slam finals from rival, Jannik Sinner in 2025, and claiming the #1 men's player in the world after a convincing four set win. Aryna Sabalenka wins the women's side after coming close at the French Open and Wimbledon. (51:21) Sadly, another passing took place in sports as former Montreal Canadien and all time great goaltender, Ken Dryden dies at 78. And MUCH MORE in between.

The 2024 season saw the New York Yankees go to the World Series and the Boston Red Sox fail to make the playoffs. One year later, the Red Sox have beaten the Yankees in eight of their ten matchups and lead the AL Wild Card race by a half game over the Yankees. Three of the Boston wins came this weekend as Boston took three of four from the Yankees in New York. The Yankees continue to have issues figuring out their lineup with an injured, but playing, Aaron Judge. Anthony Volpe also continues to struggle massively. Will the Yankees be able to survive this for a deep postseason run? How is the rest of the season going to shake out for the Red Sox? Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss both teams' seasons thus far and how they see them playing out the rest of the way.At the same time that all of this was happening, the Padres were hosting the Dodgers for another huge NL West series. Unlike their previous matchup, the Padres came out on the winning end and are now tied for the lead in the NL West. Los Angeles has the tiebreaker for the division, but with 31 games remaining, and the easiest schedule in baseball, the Padres have a real shot at the NL West crown. Jake and Jordan discuss what they saw out of each team and what they think the postseason may end up looking like. Those two series may have stolen the headlines, but there were also three sweeps this weekend as the Cubs, Rangers and Pirates all brought out their brooms. For the Pirates, that also included another impressive display from Paul Skenes as he threw seven scoreless innings and officially eliminated the Rockies from playoff contention. Through his first 50 starts, he now has an astonishing 2.02 career ERA. The guys marvel over Skenes and look at each of these sweeps.Plus, they go through every other series from the weekend and talk about what stood out to them. That includes Cal Raleigh reaching 49 home runs and setting an MLB record for home runs by a catcher. Might he break Judge's AL home run record? That feat may be in reach for the Mariners catcher. Jake and Jordan discuss this and everything else you may have missed from every series over the weekend. Start off your week with us here at Baseball Bar-B-Cast.  (1:06) - Red Sox take series over Yankees(20:43) - Padres take series over Dodgers(30:47) - Cubs, Rangers & Pirates sweep(45:48) - Mariners, Phillies & Mets series(59:07) - Turbo Mode(1:11:52) - What to watch this week   Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

The post-trade deadline MLB season got off to an inauspicious start for the New York Yankees as they flew down to Miami and got swept by the Marlins. That was the first time in franchise history that the Marlins swept the Yankees. Miami is now back to .500 while the Yankees have fallen to third in the AL East. Although New York still owns one of the coveted Wild Card spots, is Aaron Boone's seat starting to get a bit warmer? Jake and Jordan discuss this, what is going on with the Yankees and if they still look like they can be a postseason contender.Feeling the exact opposite of the Yankees right now is their bitter rival, the Boston Red Sox. Boston spent the weekend cleaning up Fenway as they swept the Houston Astros. The Red Sox now sit atop of the AL Wild Card race and just three games back in the AL East. The Milwaukee Brewers were the third and final sweep of the weekend as they took care of the Washington Nationals. How are both the Brewers and Red Sox looking as they inch closer to the postseason? Is Jacob Misiorowski going to the IL as big of a deal as it may seem? The guys dive into both of these series.There was a baseball game at a Nascar stadium this weekend. The Cincinnati Reds played the Atlanta Braves at Bristol Motor Speedway. The game finished up on Sunday after Saturday saw it get rained out in the first inning. Although the pomp and circumstance, complete with a Home Run Car, was dampened by the rain, the spectacle was still a sight to behold as the Braves took down the Reds. Jake and Jordan discuss this unique event and run through every other series from the weekend.Start your week off right at the Baseball Bar-B-Cast. (2:01) - Marlins sweep Yankees(22:11) - Boston & Milwaukee sweeps(35:24) - Speedway Classic(49:42) - Duran's debut in Philly(56:23) - Turbo Mode  Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

After another sell-off, who should we be looking closely at on the Cardinals roster for the rest of the season? Andy and Brenden talk about the impact of a disappointing trade deadline from the front office, and how the Royals can stay afloat in the AL Wild Card race.

All of the prospects should have been on the table for Joe Ryan. Keefe thinks the Sox are toast. We were in on the Sox big time! Now that the team didn't upgrade, we can root against them. The Red Sox improved the LEAST out of any AL team. Breslow got in his feels during the press conference last night. Caller takes credit for starting the booing.

Cooper DeJean is being placed all over the field as Fangio and his staff evaluate the right players across the defensive backfield positions and packages. Jalen Hurts and the team leaders are focused on what's ahead, not Super Bowl LIX. The season is less than 6 weeks away and preseason football is around the corner. A march to a repeat commences very soon. The MLB trade deadline approaches as the Phillies start a 3-game set in the Bronx against the AL Wild-Card leading Yankees. A Yankees team every bit as inconsistent as the Phils have been since June 1. Taking 2 of 3 on the heels of taking 2 of 3 from the Red Sox is key to maintaining their continual NL East leap-frog with the Mets. Trading for a true star closer is all that separates this team from a World Series in 2025, and possinly one more bat. The jury is out.

They aren't even interesting trade rumors. 4. Around the Horn: Pitchers getting DFA'd, optioned, and injured. 5.

With the Cardinals and Royals fading from their playoff races, how active will they be at the trade deadline? Rob Veno of WagerTalk.com joined the Big Show on Friday to talk about the NL Central and the AL Wild Card races. Plus, Rob's thoughts on the AFC South win totals.

Rob and Jeremy took some time from Wednesday's BBMS to talk Orioles with MASN's Brendan Mortensen. The O's have less than a month until the trade deadline and their current position in the AL Wild Card race has many confused about their plans. Is there a way they could both buy and sell before the 31st?

Headlines and It's Trade Deadline Month Day! The MLB trade deadline is July 31st and there are a lot of Mariners fans who would be happy for the team to bring back Geno Suarez, but money and egos could be an obstacle. What would it take to get the Good Vibes back in Seattle and does it make sense to bring Suarez back if you can? :30- The Seahawks have a knack for always staying interesting and relevant, but they may have some competition for the most interesting offseason this year in the Steelers. :45- It's Stump for Dump time! We are in the final stages of getting Cal to the Allstar game as the starting catcher, so VOTE! To be fair, Dumper Fever has taken over a lot of the country so we don't really need to do much work, but we're doing our part dangit! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Brock and Salk listen back to their interview with Mike Macdonald again and take a look at how confidence, trust and discpiline have equated to so much quality play and creativity. They then bring on ESPN's Jeff Passan to discuss the Mariners odds with just five games remaining, how the AL Wild Card could possibly shape up and more.

The AL Wild Card race has really heated up, especially with the Mariners win last night over the Astros. And the fact the Mariners have had so many different highs and lows is why Salk says you can't read too far into the ups and downs of a baseball season. Later, they re-air their interview with Mike Macdonald after the Seahawks Week 3 win over the Dolphins.
