A caller pitches a wild trade scenario that would send Jacob deGrom to the New York Yankees, but Evan immediately shuts down the delusional idea. Evan outlines exactly why the 38-year-old ace would never waive his full no-trade clause to leave a first-place Texas Rangers team and return to New York. Instead, the guys set their sights on a much more realistic and game-changing deadline target: Tarik Skubal. Evan and Tiki debate whether Brian Cashman should be willing to surrender promising pitching prospects like Will Warren or Ryan Weathers to build a dominant postseason rotation featuring Skubal, Gerrit Cole, and Max Fried. Shaun Morash unveils his updated rankings of the five worst uniforms in the NFL, taking brutal shots at the Jets and declaring the Tennessee Titans' new look the absolute ugliest in football.
Chicago White Sox at Texas Rangers by Toy T. Jacob deGrom owns the stronger strikeout-minus-walk profile, while Erick Fedde has generated the higher ground-ball rate. Jacob deGrom has allowed fewer home runs per nine innings, an important separator when traffic builds or the game reaches a power-heavy portion of either lineup.
Join PJ (@prspctvibecheck) and Greg (@greghoogkamp) as they discuss the All Star weekend including the Draft, Futures Game, Home Run Derby and All Star game. They also talk about the extensions for JJ Wetherholt and Chase Burns along with some other news and notes from around the league. They spend the bulk of the podcast reviewing the first half All-MLB Fantasy Team; who has come out of no where and who can sustain their performance through the end of the season and what it might mean in dynasty.Players Discussed: Dillon Dingler, Ben Rice, Liam Hicks, Willson Contreras, Nick Kurtz, Sam Antonacci, Brice Turang, Luis Arraez, Junior Caminero, Miguel Vargas, Josh Jung, Otto Lopez, CJ Abrams, Kevin McGonigle, Yordan Alvarez, James Wood, Juan Soto, Pete Crow-Armstrong, Byron Buxton, Randy Arozarena, Jordan Walker, Shohei Ohtani, Kyle Schwarber, Jake Bauers, Yandy Diaz, Jacob Misiorowski, Dylan Cease, Jacob deGrom, Paul Skenes, Cam Schlittler, Joe Ryan, Chris Sale, Cristopher Sanchez, Braxton Ashcraft, Jesus Luzardo, Foster Griffin, Emerson Hancock, Cade Smith, Mason Miller, Jhoan Duran, Aroldis Chapman, Louis Varland, Bryan Baker.
K&C bring you a preview of the Texas Rangers' second half, focusing on the uncertainty surrounding Jacob deGrom's return to the mound. He makes several provocative predictions regarding the health of Corey Seager and Wyatt Langford while weighing the merits of a trade deadline push. They evaluate the team's playoff odds and the potential impact of prospects like Kumar Rocker and Emiliano Teodo.
Arizona Diamondbacks ace Zac Gallen has officially been placed on the 15-day injured list with right elbow inflammation. Corey Pieper breaks down a massive pre-All-Star break injury wave, highly anticipated star activations, the weekly Waiver Wire segment, and the FanDuel Bet of the Day. The pre-break injury report is absolutely devastating for fantasy rosters as Kyle Harrison hits the injured list with a forearm issue prompting Robert Gasser's recall, Matt McLain lands on the shelf with a strained left calf, and Mike Yastrzemski goes to the 10-day injured list with left elbow inflammation. Additionally, American League All-Star Nick Kurtz lands on the 10-day injured list with a right thumb capsule sprain, Nick Lodolo hits the injured list with a blister, Blaze Alexander suffers a hand fracture, and Emerson Hancock was removed from his outing after taking a line drive. Roster managers must also navigate Jacob deGrom missing his next start, Shohei Ohtani skipping a start with left knee inflammation, Bo Bichette sitting out all weekend, and Jacob Misiorowski having his start skipped for developmental inning management, though fantasy managers receive major boosts with Wyatt Langford, Jeremy Pena, Ryan Jeffers, Vinnie Pasquantino, and Munetaka Murakami all activated from the injured list, alongside Edwin Diaz launching a rehab assignment and Emiliano Teodo making his MLB debut. Daily performance metrics highlight a loaded group of standouts as Sean Burke, Hunter Greene, Tristan Peters, Esmerlyn Valdez, Jake Bauers, Gage Jump, Kyle Karros, Tyler Mahle, James Wood, Cam Schlittler, Cristopher Sanchez, Vladimir Guerrero Jr., James McCann, Manny Machado, Paul Skenes, Lane Thomas, Gunnar Henderson, Alex Bregman, Zach Thornton, Joey Cantillo, Brayan Rocchio, Noah Schultz, Taj Bradley, Brandon Nimmo, Trevor McDonald, and Kevin Gausman all deliver big games, while Parker Messick battles Sandy Alcantara and Zack Wheeler duels Tarik Skubal. Conversely, a handful of prominent options flatlined, with Shea Langeliers posting a three-strikeout collar, Carson Benge going 0-for-4 with three punchouts, Otto Lopez finishing 0-for-5 with four strikeouts, and Braxton Ashcraft, Willy Adames, Freddy Peralta, Trey Yesavage, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Spencer Torkelson, Ian Seymour, and JT Ginn all struggling into the duds section.

The losing streak reaches SEVEN as the Angels fall 8-3 to the Texas Rangers, and once again the offense disappeared when it mattered most. For much of the night, José Soriano matched one of baseball's best in Jacob deGrom, giving the Angels every opportunity to compete in what looked like a pitcher's duel. But when the bats went silent yet again, the game slipped away. Then Sam Bachman entered and the Rangers blew the game wide open, turning a close contest into another frustrating defeat. At some point, this stops being about talent. This team looks like it has no urgency, no emotion, and no identity. The clubhouse appears flat, the energy is gone, and the Angels continue to find new ways to lose as the season spirals further out of control. Join ToddFox on the HITI Postgame Show as we break down another disappointing night in Texas, discuss what went wrong, whether this clubhouse has already checked out, and where this organization goes from here. What do you think? Has this team quit, or is there still hope to turn things around? Let us know in the comments!

Become a DIEHARD! alldlls.com/diehard An ALLCITY Network Production The Texas Rangers snapped a two-game losing streak and pushed the Angels' losing streak to seven with an 8-3 victory Tuesday night at Globe Life Field. Jacob deGrom pitched well over five innings before leaving with a hip injury that he said will not prevent him from making his next start. The Rangers got big offensive contributions from Justin Foscue, who hit a pinch-hit homer and drove in another run in a five-run eighth, and Alejandro Osuna, who hit a three-run homer to cap the big eighth. Nicky Lopez and Ezequiel Duran also delivered. No one was expecting that foursome to be key contributors for the Rangers, but they are and their contributions have been welcomed.

A wild weekend of fantasy baseball action delivered jaw-dropping power displays and unexpected pitching disasters, leaving managers to navigate an increasingly volatile landscape. Corey Pieper breaks down a massive slate of weekend results, major injury updates, catastrophic pitching lines, and the latest FanDuel Bet of the Day. The long ball took center stage on Saturday and Sunday. Kyle Schwarber put on a masterclass with a historic three-home run performance on Saturday, while Ozzie Albies, Jeremy Peña, Ty France, top draft picks Travis Bazzana and JJ Wetherholt, and collegiate phenom Jac Caglianone all left the yard twice over the weekend. Bryce Harper electrified fantasy managers by hitting for the cycle on Saturday, William Contreras put together a massive 4-for-5 day with a home run and 3 RBIs, and Wyatt Langford continued his hot streak, launching another long ball while handling leadoff duties on Sunday. On the mound, Joey Cantillo was nearly untouchable, carrying a gem through eight innings with nine strikeouts and just one earned run, while young arms like Cam Schlittler racked up an incredible 13 strikeouts, and Troy Melton fired six innings of one-hit ball. Veteran Logan Webb went the distance with an eight-inning complete game, and Nathan Eovaldi bounced back from a skipped start to log nine strikeouts over six strong frames. It wasn't all celebration, however, as several frontline aces ran into absolute buzzsaws. Freddy Peralta endured a catastrophic nightmare, knocked out after coughing up 10 earned runs on 10 hits in just 2.2 innings. Bryce Elder was tagged for eight earned runs on 12 hits, while Kevin Gausman got rocked for seven earned runs while walking four in just two innings. Stephen Kolek gave up nine earned runs in less than two frames, and Dustin May surrendered six earned runs in a brief two-inning appearance. Even steady stars hit speed bumps, as Jacob deGrom was tagged for six earned runs over six frames, and Tarik Skubal surrendered two home runs in a shaky 5.2-inning performance. The injury landscape remains highly active and critical for upcoming roster decisions. On the bright side, ace Brandon Woodruff and Shane Bieber are both set to make highly anticipated returns to the mound on Monday, Eury Perez is expected back next week, and Daulton Varsho made an immediate impact upon his return with a three-run blast. However, the Baltimore Orioles suffer a massive blow as star catcher Adley Rutschman lands on the 7-day concussion injured list after a freak collision, while MVP candidate Bobby Witt Jr. is dealing with a Grade 1 MCL sprain. Elly De La Cruz is targeting a Tuesday return, and Teoscar Hernandez is eyeing a June 29th comeback, but Ryne Nelson (flexor), Michael Soroka (glute), Jordan Lawlar (hamstring), and Jack Leiter (ankle) all face structural setbacks. We close out the show with our Weekly Waiver Wire segment, highlighting the top targets you need to grab tonight to stay ahead of your league opponents before the Monday morning transaction freeze.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Friday. Dave Essler and Munaf Manji are back with a full Friday MLB betting card on Cash That Ticket, working through four sharply analyzed games before closing with an early look at the 2025 New York Jets win total. The show opens with Milwaukee at Atlanta, where Dave breaks down the remarkable turnaround of the Brewers starting pitcher, who allowed 11 earned runs in April but has surrendered just one total earned run in his last eight starts, including a complete game on 95 pitches. With Martin Perez on the mound for Atlanta, Munaf pulls the historical data showing Perez gave up 14 earned runs and 20 hits across two 2024 starts against Milwaukee. Both hosts find the Brewers run line and the Braves team total under three and a half at minus 145 on DraftKings as the most defensible angles, particularly with Ronald Acuna Jr. absent from the Atlanta lineup. The second game is San Diego at Texas, where Jacob deGrom takes the mound coming off four consecutive starts of two runs or fewer. Dave examines Randy Vasquez's road splits and limited Texas exposure, but the first five innings under at four and the Rangers minus a half run in the first five become the consensus plays. Dave makes the Rangers first five his official best bet of the Friday card at minus 130. The third game pits St. Louis against Kansas City, where Seth Lugo is returning from a concussion sustained when a comebacker struck him in the head. Dave questions betting behind any pitcher returning from that kind of head injury, and Lugo's home ERA of 4.06 across eight starts reinforces the concern. The Cardinals team total over four and a half is Dave's preferred market, while Munaf goes Cardinals money line at minus 122 on DraftKings as his official best bet for the card, citing McGreevey's strong rotation work and the line movement from minus 115 to minus 122 confirming market direction. The fourth game takes Boston to Seattle, where Ranger Suarez faces Bryce Miller at home. Despite heavy public money on the Mariners, Dave identifies reverse line movement pointing toward sharp Red Sox money and targets the Red Sox first five at plus 104, refusing to touch the full game given the Boston bullpen. A secondary look at the first five over three and a half rounds out the analysis, with Munaf noting Miller's career struggles against Boston totaling 14 earned runs in 15 and a third career innings against the Red Sox. The second half of the show turns to the Jets win total at five and a half, minus 120 on DraftKings. Both hosts land reluctantly on the over, reasoning that a team which won three games while giving up 503 points and recording zero interceptions on defense cannot realistically repeat that level of dysfunction. Geno Smith, Breece Hall, Garrett Wilson, a legitimate offensive line, and a new defensive scheme give New York enough pieces to reach six or seven wins. Dave jokes he may take the Jets over one interception this season with week one at Tennessee providing the first opportunity.

Become a DIEHARD! alldlls.com/diehard An ALLCITY Network Production Texas Rangers starting pitchers MacKenzie Gore and Kumar Rocker weren't good enough to beat the Minnesota Twins in the first two games of their three-game series at Globe Life Field, and the offense didn't do nearly enough (especially Tuesday). The mound woes have been part of a season-long issue for what was supposed to be the strength of the team. Jacob deGrom has been the best starter, but even Nathan Eovaldi has had his ups and downs. The Rangers are also battling injuries and have dig into their farm system. They might have to keep digging.

Elly De La Cruz lands on the injured list with a right hamstring strain that sidelines him for up to four weeks. Corey Pieper breaks down massive injury updates, crucial bullpen tier shifts, the daily Bullpen Report, and the FanDuel Bet of the Day. The medical wire is completely flooded as the Reds officially recall top infielder Edwin Arroyo to replace their injured superstar, Zach Neto gets scratched with sudden whiplash, Dylan Crews remains sidelined by an ongoing hand issue, and Josh Naylor exits early with painful back spasms.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Monday. It is June 1, 2026, and Munaf Manji and Uncle Diamond Dave Essler are back at the start of a new month with the full MLB Monday slate on the table and a perfect 2-0 best bet record from Thursday to carry into the week. The guys open with a quick but meaningful conversation about handicapping discipline, with Munaf explaining why he took Sunday off from posting plays rather than force something that was not there, and Dave backing the decision by making the case that this kind of restraint is exactly what winning long-term looks like and what clients are actually paying for when they subscribe. From there the full card gets the full treatment. Detroit heads to Tampa Bay with Ty Madden activated off the injured list to start or handle a bulk role against Griffin Jax, who has reinvented himself as a legitimate starter for the Rays with a 1.42 ERA in his recent stretch, and both hosts weigh a fade of the IL return against the case for the Tigers plus one and a half on the run line in a game the total projects for around eight. The Marlins take Sandy Alcántara to Washington, where Cade Cavalli gets the ball for the Nationals and both bullpens are identified as over-pushing threats in a park that has hit the over at nearly 68 percent in home games this season, leading Dave to his best bet of the episode, the Marlins team total over three and a half. In Milwaukee, Landen Roupp faces an opener-led Brewers lineup with Shane Drohan starting and Chad Patrick handling the bulk of the workload, and both hosts land on the under and the Giants run line in a low-total game where paying a big price on a three-inning pitcher does not make sense. David Sandlin faces the same Minnesota Twins club he dominated in his MLB debut five days earlier, retiring 18 straight after a leadoff homer, while Joe Ryan brings a solid recent stretch but a 4.42 home ERA into a spot where the White Sox first-five plus a half run gets the call. Jacob deGrom and Michael McGreevy headline the pitcher's duel of the night in St. Louis, where deGrom's 8.44 career ERA at Busch Stadium and McGreevy's 1.93 home ERA combine with both teams' shaky bullpens to make Munaf's official best bet an easy call: first-five-innings under four at minus-115, take the two starters and get out before the relief corps get involved. Kyle Freeland's ugly season numbers run into Freeland's strong career record against the Angels, while the market has already knocked the price down nearly 20 cents from its opening on José Soriano, with Munaf leaning Rockies plus one and a half and Dave going Angels team total over rather than lay the big number. Chase Burns has been one of the best pitchers in baseball in 2026, and his Cy Young-caliber season continues against Kansas City, where Luinder Avila is being asked to handle a starting role out of the bullpen and the sharp money that moved the price nearly 20 cents makes the Royals plus one and a half a reasonable market-following play. Eduardo Rodríguez is 5-1 with a 2.31 ERA but owns a troubling split against the Dodgers specifically at home in Arizona, where Emmet Sheehan brings the better underlying metrics despite a higher ERA, and both hosts elect patience, watching the early innings for a live entry rather than committing pre-game. The night closes in Seattle with Emerson Hancock against an Austin Warren opener for the Mets, where uncertainty about the Mets bullpen depth earns the game Munaf's official pass of the day and Dave identifies the first-five under as the cleanest available angle. Dave closes with a market call: home favorites went 11-1 on Sunday, and that kind of lopsided result historically corrects itself, making Monday a dog-day card where the plus-money side of the ledger deserves attention.

Take advantage of our Playoff Diehard Sale and join our community today! https://alldlls.com/stars-playoff-offer-youtube An ALLCITY Network Production The Texas Rangers have several problems facing them this season. The current one is Yordan Alvarez. The Astros' star hit two more homers Wednesday in a 4-3 victory, including one to start the eighth inning when an intentional walk might have been manager Skip Schumaker's best move. The first Alvarez homer came against Jacob deGrom, who showed improvement in a grinding six-inning outing. Chris Young talked to the media before the game, and the president of baseball operations is staying optimistic in the face of growing scrutiny.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Wednesday. Munaf Manji and Uncle Diamond Dave Essler are back on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed for a loaded Wednesday baseball card on Cash That Ticket, dated May 27, 2026, with the NBA on pause after the New York Knicks swept the Cleveland Cavaliers out of the Eastern Conference Finals and left no playoff action on the schedule. Six MLB games get the full treatment, game by game, pitcher by pitcher, with best bets locked in at the end of the episode. The guys open with a quick Tuesday recap, noting the Brewers three-star loss after Milwaukee scored five of six runs in the wrong inning and the Yankees rocking chair win where the offense exploded for 24 hits and somewhere around 13 or 14 runs, with Munaf cashing his run line and Dave's first five surviving on the back of that first inning. Oklahoma City beat San Antonio 127 to 114, covered the number, and went over the total, now sitting one win away from back to back NBA Finals appearances. First game up is Tampa Bay at Baltimore, where Stephen Matz gets a bit of long overdue respect from the crew and both men land on the Rays team total over given Trey Gibson's limited major league track record and the uncertainty around his pitch count in what is essentially a spot start. The Angels and Tigers follow, and Munaf delivers Jose Soriano's road splits, which are hard to dismiss at a 1.14 ERA this season on the road and a career 2.86 ERA across 32 road starts. Detroit is one and nine in their last ten and carrying a minus 29 run differential, and the lean is first five Angels with an alternate run line as a bonus. Chicago heads to Pittsburgh for a Jameson Taillon and Bubba Chandler matchup, and Dave makes the contrarian call for the Cubs at plus odds, pointing to Chandler's 99-pitch, five-inning outing last start and a season ERA sitting near five as reasons the Pirates may not be the slam dunk many bettors will assume. Bryce Elder and Connelly Early face off at Fenway in a game the guys expect to produce runs, with Elder's 1.97 road ERA and Early's 4.43 ERA at home pointing toward the Braves team total over as the primary play. Gerrit Cole makes his second start since coming back from Tommy John surgery against Noah Cameron in Kansas City, and Munaf makes a data-driven case for the Yankees team total over four and a half at minus 130 based on Cameron's history against New York, where the Royals lefty has surrendered eleven earned runs and five home runs in fewer than nine career innings against this lineup. Jacob deGrom and Mike Burrows square off in Arlington for a Rangers and Astros matchup that Dave calls as the game total over seven and a half, with Burrows allowing eleven earned runs in his last two starts and deGrom pricing oddly low for a home favorite. The nightcap belongs to Shohei Ohtani on the mound for the Dodgers against Tomoyuki Sugano and Colorado, with Ohtani confirmed to pitch after exiting Tuesday's blowout win as a precaution following a hit by pitch on his right hand. Neither man wants to lay minus 411, and the Rockies first five innings under one and a half at minus 165 is the only angle worth touching at this price. Best bets close the show: Dave goes over seven and a half in Arlington, Munaf goes Yankees team total over four and a half minus 130. Pregame.com listeners can access Munaf's all access picks through the MLB All Star break for one hundred ninety nine dollars using promo code NERD50, which saves fifty dollars off the standard price and delivers forty nine days of every pick in every sport including games of the week, month, and year, with the offer good through June 8.

The episode also touches on Yankees excitement surrounding Cam Schlittler and the rare energy young power pitchers bring to a fan base, with comparisons to Jacob deGrom and Matt Harvey. Later, the conversation shifts to the Mets and concerns about their young core lacking power, while still finding reasons for optimism around the development of several emerging players and the future direction of the roster.

Shan and RJ reunite while Bobby Belt calls out sick. They break down RJ's vacation through Utah's Mighty Five, the Mavericks landing the ninth pick in the NBA draft lottery, and Jacob deGrom's masterful pitching performance against the Chicago Cubs.
Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber close things out with a hilarious detour into the flood of Jalens across the NBA, while also circling back to Knicks Sixers tension and the reaction to Tiki's Joel Embiid criticism. The conversation mixes playoff trash talk, media bias toward the Knicks, and the absurdity of trying to keep every Jalen straight. The guys also dig into whether Carlos Beltran could make sense in a Mets front office role, the Yankees comparisons to the 1998 team, CC Sabathia's stance on bunting, Boomer Esiason's golf course controversy, Jacob deGrom's changing dominance, and Carlos Correa's latest injury. It is a fast moving blend of New York sports arguments, old grudges, and off the rails radio fun.
Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber dive into the growing drama between New York and Philadelphia after Tiki's blunt criticism of Joel Embiid sparked backlash from Philly sports media and fans. With the Knicks looking to take control of the series, the conversation turns into a heated debate about toughness, excuses, and whether the Sixers are already showing signs of frustration. The episode also touches on Kelly Oubre's comments about defending Jalen Brunson, the Yankees drawing early comparisons to the legendary 1998 team, Jacob deGrom's changing dominance, and the chaos of too many Jalens in the NBA. It is a lively mix of Knicks playoff energy, Philly fan outrage, baseball debate, and classic Evan and Tiki back and forth.
The Yankees keep winning, and Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber are trying to figure out just how far the praise should go. After another comeback win, this time against Jacob deGrom, the conversation turns to whether this team's depth, bullpen, rotation and relentless lineup are starting to resemble the legendary 1998 Yankees. Evan pushes back hard on the comparison while Tiki and others argue the signs are there, even if no one is predicting 114 wins. The guys also debate Tampa Bay refusing to go away, the flaws in the MLB playoff format, why Yankee Stadium should make John Sterling's famous “Yankees win” call a permanent postgame tradition, and how Tiki may have officially become Philadelphia's newest villain.
The Yankees are rolling, but Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber are split on just how special this team really is. After another impressive win, the conversation turns from admiration to argument as the guys debate whether this roster's depth, resilience and nightly confidence are starting to echo the legendary 1998 Yankees. Evan wants no part of comparing any early season team to the greatest Yankees club of all time, while Tiki and others see familiar signs in the way this group wins, responds and survives injuries. From Ryan McMahon grinding out a huge home run off Jacob deGrom to the bullpen escaping trouble again, the first twenty minutes become a spirited debate over whether this team is simply excellent or already entering sacred territory.
Boomer and Gio debate if LeBron James is officially retiring after eight seasons with the Lakers, followed by Jerry's update on the Knicks-Sixers series and Tiki Barber's blunt advice for Joel Embiid. We recap the NBA highlights with JJ Redick before hitting the diamond, where the Yankees beat the Rangers behind Ryan McMahon's clutch homer off Jacob deGrom and the Phillies find success under new manager Don Mattingly. To close, we check out Peter Schwartz living it up in some bougie Legend Seats at Yankee Stadium.
Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber react to the Yankees' emotional night in the Bronx as the team honored the late John Sterling during a dominant win over the Orioles. The guys discuss Aaron Judge launching another home run in a moment that felt perfectly scripted, the crowd's reaction throughout the tribute, and why the ceremony hit so hard for longtime Yankee fans. They also debate the true turning point of the game and whether Judge's blast or a key bullpen escape changed everything. The conversation also turns into a bigger discussion about the Yankees' scorching offense, challenge strategy under the new replay system, and whether the bullpen concerns are still real despite the team's recent winning streak. Plus, Evan explains his controversial plan to leave a Yankees game early with his son depending on how long Jacob deGrom stays in the game against the Bronx Bombers.
