Dwindling down to the final games before the All-star break tees off in Atlanta and coming back down to Earth from their outstanding holiday weekend in Los Angeles, the Astros lose their series opener taking on the Guardians' yesterday evening with a final score of 7-5. Still leading the AL West division and still holding their rank at 2nd in the American League roughly 3 games back behind the Tigers Sean, Dan, & Chris evaluate yesterday's small setback and how yesterday's loss could be fuel to the fire rolling into and coming out of the All-star break.

The Atlanta Braves find themselves in yet another tailspin after being swept at home by the Baltimore Orioles, but this bender might just spell the end of their hopes of turning their season around with ample time to dig out of the hole they find themselves in. Grant McAuley discusses yet another challenging week as the series losses are once again piling up for the Braves. Not only are the losses mounting on the field, but Spencer Schwellenbach followed Chris Sale to the 60-day injured list, leaving Atlanta devoid of enough capable starters to field a rotation -- something that had been a strength for the club. Add that to the continued offensive struggles and the Braves are once again sinking in the standings and unable to put together enough offense to win consistently. Nick Green of FanDuel Sports joins the show to discuss the woes of the Atlanta lineup, how it went from one of the best in baseball to one of the worst in under two years, whether or not a new hitting coach with a new message and new philosophy was the right call, and what, if anything the club can do to once again reach its potential. (28:19). We'll also take a trip around the big leagues for some history making moments from the week that was for Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh and Dodgers great Clayton Kershaw, run down the National and American League rosters for the All-Star Game, and have a visit with Melanie Newman of the Baltimore broadcast team (57:38).
