Cuban American baseball pitcher

The Knicks just won the NBA Finals — and José Alvarado led the Puerto Rican Day Parade the next morning. But while New York was celebrating, something else was quietly happening in the Caribbean: a US carrier strike group just parked itself 90 miles from Havana. Henry and Danny — with help from AI guest Tio Raul — break down the full arc of America's 125-year obsession with Cuba. From the first concentration camps in history, to the mob-run casino island Batista built for American business, to Fidel's guerrilla campaign on a 10-person yacht with 81 men aboard, to the Cuban tank crews that went and fought Israel on a mountain in Syria — this island punches so far above its weight it's almost unbelievable. They also get into why Cuba deployed nearly half a million troops to Angola over 16 years, how that campaign helped end apartheid in South Africa (and what Nelson Mandela himself said about it), and how Aroldis Chapman — the hardest thrower in baseball history — had to buy his freedom from a cartel for $30 million just to pitch in the majors. And then there's Marco Rubio, whose family left Cuba under Batista — not Castro — now sitting as Secretary of State with a carrier fleet and a personal vendetta shaping US foreign policy in real time. Someone just dropped $57,000 on a prediction market betting it all goes hot before the end of 2026. Tio Raul is powered by Maneku — the AI built for real conversations.

KJ Carson fills in for Christian Arcand | Monday, June 22, 2026
A high-stakes Monday schedule fundamentally shifted the fantasy landscape as ace starters faced starkly contrasting fates, strategic bullpen management unlocked massive streaming value, and a wave of superstar injury activations prepared to reshape active lineups. Corey Pieper returns to dive deep into a critical slate of performances, breaking down brilliant bounceback campaigns, alarming pitching regressions, crucial bullpen developments, and a fresh FanDuel Bet of the Day target. The elite pitching tier delivered extreme polarization to start the week. Kyle Bradish put together an absolute masterclass, stifling hitters across eight scoreless frames with nine strikeouts, while Michael King was equally spectacular, preservation-perfect over seven shutout innings with five punchouts. Brandon Woodruff was utterly electric in his return, silencing opposition bats with 10 strikeouts across six dominant, one-hit frames to hold off an equally sharp Brady Singer. Framber Valdez flashed stellar form with eight strikeouts over six frames of one-run ball, and Michael Wacha outdueled Drew Rasmussen by logging seven frames of one-run stability. Conversely, Gerrit Cole ran into an absolute buzzsaw, shelled for five earned runs on nine hard hits in a brief 4.1-inning exit, leaving fantasy managers sweating over his structural consistency. Meanwhile, strategic bulk-relievers stealing wins behind openers became an absolute goldmine; Eric Lauer fired six hitless, spectacular frames out of the bullpen, Alan Rangel tossed five innings of one-run ball, and highly touted prospect Kumar Rocker fanned nine batters across five stellar bulk frames to eclipse Tyler Phillips. The waiver and injury landscape is shifting beneath our feet with massive high-impact reinforcements on the immediate horizon. Fantasy managers can officially rejoice as Cincinnati's dynamic superstar Elly De La Cruz is locked in for his Tuesday activation from the hamstring injured list, while former Cy Young winner Shane Bieber is ready to make his long-awaited season debut for the Blue Jays. San Francisco is also on the verge of an incredible depth boost, with Francisco Lindor and flame-throwing righty Eury Perez trending aggressively toward a potential Wednesday return. On the critical tracking front, MVP centerpiece Bobby Witt Jr. sat out Monday's action but remains highly optimistic about avoiding a costly IL stint, while Kyle Tucker continues to manage lower back spasms. On the downside, both Dalton Rushing and Jeremy Peña triggered concern by leaving their respective contests early due to apparent physical tweaks. We wrap up the program with a comprehensive, deep-dive Bullpen Report tracking sudden closer instability. We analyze Ryan Helsley's uncharacteristic recent structural struggles, evaluate Jaden Hill's ascending leverage role in Colorado alongside Elvis Alvarado's concurrent high-leverage blown-save regression, navigate the cloudy late-inning committee situation for the Chicago Cubs, and dissect highly unusual, rough high-leverage outings from trusted anchors Cade Smith and Aroldis Chapman.

Things just keep getting worse for the Red Sox as reports emerge about Sonny Gray being open to moving his no-trade clause if Boston decides to sell at the MLB trade deadline. Then closer Aroldis Chapman gave up a 2-run lead in the 9th inning to the last place Rockies for his first blown save since July 2025. Tom Caron & Lou Merloni try to make sense of everything going wrong with the Red Sox pitchers while discussing what's next for the team. Plus, 2004 World Series champion Keith Foulke joins the show to discuss how difficult it is as a closer to play when your team fails to provide many save opportunities in a season & the upcoming Drive Fore Kids annual charitable celebrity golf tournament.

Plus, they discuss Trey Yesavage striking out six over 7.1 IP, the thin bullpen, and get into the pre-game news that Anthony Santander could be back this season - does that change the Jays priorities at the coming deadline?

Then, Craig Breslow is wanted man from Sox fans, but ownership are standing behind him because they don't have a better alternative plan.

A remarkable comeback last night at PNC Park as the Pirates beat the Dodgers, 9-8. Tyler Callihan was the unlikely hero, homering twice for his first two home runs in Major League Baseball. What did this mean for this team? It could be a game that turns the tide of their season. Poni shouted out the crowd last night that didn't leave with the Pirates down 6-1 in the 7th. Game Balls for PIT-LAD: Tyler Callihan, Spencer Horwitz, Bryan Reynolds. Pirates insider Jason Mackey joined the show. Jason reacted to a magical night at PNC Park. Do we see more playing time for Tyler Callihan after his huge night? Jason thinks we could be close to the end of the line for Marcell Ozuna, especially once the team gets healthy again. How can the Pirates become a better team with challenging balls and strikes? Jason discussed the Oneil Cruz injury and what his recovery looks like. Jason paused, but believes we will see Konnor Griffin before July 1st since he can still perform in some aspects of the game. Who are some bullpen options in Triple A right now? Poni told Jason he is tired of the piggyback schedule within the rotation. Are the Pirates going to take a look at Aroldis Chapman going into the trade deadline?

Ken Rosenthal said that the Pirates are one of the busier teams trying to add a bullpen arm. What would it take for the Pirates to reunite with former closer Aroldis Chapman?

Now, Ben Cherington said that the WBC threw Skenes off, which could explain why Skenes has not been as dominant this year. The Donny Football Debrief: Mullsy brings up hockey and not me.

Special guest Gordo from the podcast Play Tessie joins Mark Corbett and Mat Germain for an in-depth look at the current state of the Boston Red Sox. The crew breaks down Boston's elite pitching, offensive struggles, leadership concerns, player development, trade deadline possibilities, and how the Red Sox compare to the Rays model of success. Red Sox Pitching is Carrying the Team Boston's starting rotation and bullpen have been among the best in the American League during May. Sonny Gray's dominant outing sparks discussion about the strength of the staff. Gordo explains how the pitching staff consistently gives the Red Sox opportunities to win games. Offensive Problems Continue The Red Sox remain one of the weakest offensive teams in baseball despite strong pitching and defense. Trevor Story, Jarren Duran, and Caleb Durbin are discussed as major offensive disappointments. Gordo notes that even league average run production would make Boston one of baseball's top teams. Life After Rafael Devers and Alex Bregman Discussion on the impact of losing star players and veteran leadership. Pressure has shifted onto younger players who may not yet be ready to carry the offense. Roman Anthony's development becomes a major focal point for the franchise moving forward. Christian Campbell and the Youth Movement Debate over Christian Campbell's future position and timeline to return to the majors. The group discusses whether Campbell should move back to the infield. Concerns are raised about rushing top prospects before they are fully ready. Comparing the Rays and Red Sox Development Systems Mat explains how the Rays build organizational identity from the Florida Complex League all the way to the majors. Gordo discusses Boston's analytics-heavy developmental philosophy and recent coaching changes. The conversation explores whether the Red Sox lack a unified organizational identity. Leadership and Clubhouse Identity Alex Cora's firing and Chad Tracy's promotion are discussed in detail. The hosts examine whether Boston lacks veteran leadership and emotional anchors in the clubhouse. Comparisons are made to successful Rays teams built around accountability and defense-first baseball. Ownership and Spending Questions The crew debates whether Red Sox ownership still has the same urgency to win. Comparisons are made between Boston's current payroll strategy and previous championship seasons. Fenway Sports Group's expanding business interests become part of the discussion. Brutal Upcoming Schedule The Red Sox face one of the toughest remaining schedules in baseball. Matchups against the Braves, Yankees, Rays, Blue Jays, Mariners, Dodgers, and others could define the season. Trade Deadline Speculation Gordo breaks down possible trade chips including Sonny Gray, Aroldis Chapman, and Garrett Whitlock. Mat discusses why the Rays could potentially pursue Chapman at the deadline. The group debates whether Boston should buy, sell, or retool for next season. What Gordo is Watching the Rest of the Season Roman Anthony's health and development remain the biggest storyline for Boston. Gordo explains why Anthony could still become the centerpiece of the franchise.
