Podcast appearances and mentions of jose caballero

Flash floods highlight mismanagement. Boomer names Anthony Munoz his best teammate. A caller, close to Robin Ventura, believes Ventura won his fight with Nolan Ryan. We recall the 1999-2000 Mets. Jerry updates on BT & Sal's "going to town" comments, Jose Caballero's trade, the Mets acquiring Cedric Mullins, and Terry McLaurin's trade request. Gio discusses a golf trip to Streamsong and Pebble Beach, and a caller suggests a golf psychology book.

On a post-trade deadline Friday, Boomer and Gio praise the Yankees and Mets for their aggressive but smart trade moves. The Yankees acquired three back-end relievers, while both teams avoided sacrificing top prospects. Boomer is optimistic about the Yankees' schedule and future performance. Jerry provides an update on the busy trade deadline, with over 50 trades and 100+ players moved, including Jose Caballero to the Yankees. Other topics include Boomer's take on David Stearns, Mikal Bridges' contract, the NFL preseason kickoff, and the lasting impact of Russell Wilson's "Mr. Unlimited" video. Boomer also interviewed John Randle for "Gametime."

Hour 1 It was a "Feel Good" Friday post-trade deadline. Boomer praised Brian Cashman for the Yankees acquiring three relievers. Gio appreciated both the Yankees' and Mets' aggressive, prospect-preserving deadline moves. Boomer predicted a Yankees surge. Boomer was upset with Gio over a fried cannoli bet. Both agreed their teams met deadline needs. Jerry recapped the busy deadline (50+ trades, 100+ players moved, Jose Caballero traded mid-game). Boomer wanted David Stearns close-ups due to his height, while Jerry wished he was taller. Mikal Bridges took a discount for his extension to keep the Knicks under the second apron. The NFL preseason started with the Hall of Fame game. Finally, Boomer and Gio discussed the enduring impact of Russell Wilson's "Mr. Unlimited" video after Gio interviewed him, and Boomer interviewed John Randle for "Gametime." Hour 2 Boomer and Gio discuss flash flooding, Boomer's best teammate (Anthony Munoz), Robin Ventura's fight with Nolan Ryan, the 1999-2000 Mets, and BT and Sal's "going to town" phrase. Yankees acquired Jose Caballero, while the Mets traded for Cedric Mullins. Terry McLaurin wants a trade from the Commanders. Gio looks forward to Streamsong and Pebble Beach, and a caller suggests a golf psychology book for them. Hour 3 Gio's changing weather preference, McLaurin trade thoughts, Hard Knocks' Damar Hamlin spotlight, Yankees win, MLB trade deadline games, Mets playing time, Correa to Astros, C-Mac and Big Zoo's late-night talk, Jaxson Dart's learning from Zach Wilson, Jets fan's McLaurin opinion, Giants fan's Russell Wilson observation, and Boomer's take on Russell Wilson's motivation. Hour 4 Boomer and Gio discuss Aaron Rodgers, the Jets' Madden ratings, and a golf tournament win. Jerry grades the Yankees' and Mets' trade deadline moves. The Yankees won their third straight. Mikal Bridges extended with the Knicks. Joe Schoen addresses Giants roster flaws. The Moment of the Day: Gio reenacts a BT and Sal argument. In the final segment, Gio foresees a Yankees-Astros postseason collision, while Boomer believes bullpen additions suffice. Bullpens are increasingly vital in modern baseball. The Giants became sellers and will play the Mets.

Jerry recaps all of the moves from what ended up being a crazy trade deadline. There were over 50 trades made in less than two days and more than 100 players moved. The Yankees traded for Jose Caballero of the Rays while he was playing against them. Boomer wants close-ups of David Stearns because he is a “very small man”. Jerry thinks it would be cool to be taller. Mikal Bridges took a slight discount on his new extension to keep the Knicks under the second apron. The NFL preseason began last night with the Hall of Fame game.

Jerry begins with BT and Sal saying some variation of “going to town” after Cashman said that a few weeks ago. Jose Caballero, one of the Yankees acquisitions, met with the media after the game because he was in town playing against the Yankees when the trade was made. The Mets traded for Cedric Mullins and now have a real centerfielder. Terry McLaurin requested a trade from the Commanders. He wants a new contract.

Rick Stroud and Steve Versnick on the Rays trade deadlines acquisitions as they say goodbye to Taj Bradley, Jose Caballero and Curtis Mead. They didn't trade they're biggest pieces and kept Yandy Diaz, Brandon Lowe and Pete Fairbanks. Plus when should you be worried about the number of interceptions that Baker Mayfield is throwing in practice. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Tampa Bay Rays took Tuesday's game in walk-off fashion by an Amed Rosario dribbler to third base that Anthony Rendon could not get the throw to first on time. The game ended 7-6 but most of the damage was done from the 9th inning on as the Rays were trailing 3-1 with two out in the 9th inning when Jose Caballero came through with a 2-run triple to maintain the Rays alive. Aaron Civale had a quality start for the Rays while the bullpen covered 7 innings allowing 3 unearned runs.Let us know what you think  of this series in the comments!Follow Kevin Weiss @KevinWeiss_Follow Ulises Sambrano @SambranoUlisesFollow the show @LockedOnRaysFollow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…

The Tampa Bay Rays took their first win of their three-game series against Los Angeles Angels 6-4. Aaron Civale allowed a two-run bomb to Mike Trout in the first inning but settled down and that would be the only time he would get hurt by the Angels. The Rays offense showed up with a big game from Jose Caballero, collecting three hits, José Siri with a big double and Isaac Paredes providing the power with a shot to left field.

The Tampa Bay Rays have started the 2024 season by splitting a four-game series against the Toronto Blue Jays. The Canadian team took the bookend victories while the Rays took the middle games. There were fireworks on Saturday's game as Toronto reliever Génesis Cabrera shoved Jose Caballero twice after a bunt that scored a Rays run. Tyler Alexander wasn't so lucky facing a very right-handed lineup.

Sho Alli and Julia Kreuz break down the Blue Jays' 5-1 loss to the Rays at Tropicana Field. They take your calls and texts, and get to the lack of offence - are the echoes of 2023 too similar to what people have gotten through three games in 2024? They chat about the Génesis Cabrera scuffle with Jose Caballero, Justin Turner pinch-hitting late in the game, and Bo Bichette's defence through the first few games. Plus, Yusei Kikuchi only goes 4.1 IP, and Ernie Clement shines defensively - should he get more run as the team's third baseman? The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

Fantasy Baseball Live – January 7, 2024 – 3 pm.Segment 1 – Breaking down Rich's NFBC DraftSegment 2 – News and Notes1.The Mariners rebuild their outfielda.The Mariners trade Robbie Ray to the Giants and received former Mariner, OF Mitch Haniger, and RHP Anthony Desclafanib.They also acquired Luke Raley from the Rays in exchange for Jose Caballero.c.Questions:i.So long, farewell to Dominic Canzone and Cade Marlowe. What do you think about the rebuilt outfield?ii.Who gets the ABs in SF and Tampa with Raley and Haniger moving on?iii.Who will get Haniger's playing time in San Francisco?iv.RosterResource is showing Caballero as the starting SS, but there are splits vs. RHP with him. I'm inclined to give the nod to Walls. However, will it matter for either? Will either get enough PT to draft them in fantasy league for 2023.v.Desclafini ADP is 439. Does this feel about right, too low, too high?2.The Mets did a very Un-Mets signing. They went small, signing Harrison Bader to a one-year deal. With Ronnie Mauricio lost for a good part of the season, they needed an outfielder and Bader is it. There is speed and great defense, but the data doesn't show much power at all. He does swing with a lot of loft, but it's hard to see more than a handful of home runs. Also, he hasn't been able to stay healthy since 2019. What's your take?Segments 3 and 4 – Shortstop Preview1.How are you approaching this position for your upcoming drafts?2.We will break down the top 15 to 20 in detail. Then, go through 20 to 30 in less detail. We will end by jumping around the remaining ranked players.3.Which player not in the Top 10 has a chance to emerge there next season?4.Which Top 10 player will not be there next season?5.Give me a couple of sleepers6.Give me one, maybe two guys you are just going to avoid drafting?CloseThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3306394/advertisement
