Podcast appearances and mentions of Juan Soto

Evan Roberts refuses to believe Mason Miller is truly available, setting off a battle with Shaun Morash over the Yankees' biggest potential trade deadline prize. Evan accepts a double loss if Miller is traded to New York, while Tiki Barber weighs in on a bullpen that has already become one of baseball's best. Gerrit Cole's dominant return, Jazz Chisholm's game-changing defense and a vulnerable American League leave the Yankees looking increasingly dangerous. The conversation turns to the Jets using artificial intelligence, whether AI can ever be trusted with football decisions and why organizational history makes that especially terrifying. Evan, Tiki and Shaun also debate whether the Mets are cursed, Juan Soto returning for meaningless September games, the threat of no baseball in 2027 and a daylight-saving argument that becomes one of the most heated fights of the hour.

A caller claims we've never seen photo's of Juan Soto's girlfriend which prompts another caller to check in with some wild claims.

An under-the-weather Boomer heads to Chicago with Phil Simms for a signing trip despite potential bad weather, a caller notes the lack of photos of Juan Soto's girlfriend, and we learn CBS Sports' Stephen Waldron kept his vacation plans secret. Jerry returns with 'Rami's greatest hits' from his podcast interview, followed by audio from Geno Smith and Breece Hall at Jets camp, Ben Johnson on Caleb Williams' progress, and Dave Sims calling the final out in a Yankees win over the White Sox. Finally, Gio warns that fans will turn on Justin Herbert without a deep playoff run, Boomer credits Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson with doing the most to win, and Gio advises Matthew Schaefer to get his own place as a record contract looms.

Brian Windhorst says the challenge for the Sixers will be fitting in Jaylen Brown because they need him more than they need LeBron. Don LaGreca joins to tell Michael why he is a turncoat about Juan Soto. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Jerry's first update starts with the sounds of the Yankees beating the White Sox. The Mets beat the Braves as Francisco Lindor homered twice and drove in six. We heard from Zac Thornton after the game on his pitching performance. Juan Soto talked about his injury. A squirrel got loose in the Orioles/Tigers game in Detroit. We heard play by play of the grounds crew trying to catch him.

Cody Bellinger lands on the IL for 4–6 weeks alongside Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton, prompting Gio to back Aaron Boone for Manager of the Year. Jerry kicks off his first update with sounds from the Yankees beating the White Sox, before moving to the Mets' victory over the Braves led by Francisco Lindor's two homers and six RBIs. Plus, hear postgame thoughts from Zac Thornton on his pitching and Juan Soto on his injury, relive play-by-play of the grounds crew chasing a loose squirrel in Detroit, and stick around for the final segment as Gio wonders how we ever killed time before smartphones.

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker look back on the Blue Jays' series-opening win against the Washington Nationals and discuss Max Scherzer's return, Jeff Hoffman and Tyler Rogers' trade values, and whether a win streak could change the Jays' deadline plans. Then, former Washington Nationals GM and President Mike Rizzo joins the show (25:48) to discuss retooling a team after a World Series run as he did with the Nats in 2021, the trade deadline from an executive's point of view, the challenges of moving a player with trade protection, Max Scherzer's legacy, and what went into the Juan Soto trade negotiations.

Evan Roberts, Tiki Barber and Shaun Morash debate whether the fan was misled by a questionable “upgrade,” why he should have demanded a refund and how Evan would react if the Mets ever tried taking his carefully selected seats. The crew also breaks down the wild premise of The Catch, Juan Soto's cameo and why Mets fans may be the perfect audience for a baseball romantic comedy. Plus, they examine Francisco Lindor's captaincy debate and the troubling mental and defensive mistakes that have defined his season.

Bryce Harper's viral comments about the Mets sound insulting until the full context reveals something far more damaging. Evan Roberts and Shaun Morash explain why Harper was actually showing respect for the rivalry while accurately criticizing how the Mets lost their identity after moving on from Pete Alonso and Brandon Nimmo. Harper's praise for Don Mattingly also sparks a major debate about the Mets' next manager. Could Carlos Beltran or Albert Pujols command more respect from stars like Francisco Lindor and Juan Soto because they understand the pressure of performing in New York? Plus, a Giants fan predicts a top-10 defense under improved coaching and argues that Deonte Banks could finally reach his potential.

Baseball may be headed for a devastating 2027 work stoppage as owners push harder than ever for a salary cap. Evan Roberts predicts an extremely shortened season rather than a full cancellation, creating the possibility that the Yankees or Mets could win a World Series that fans immediately dismiss with an asterisk. Evan and Tiki Barber debate whether New York fans would care about the criticism before turning to the Mets' deadline decisions, Freddy Peralta's future, Juan Soto potentially moving to first base and the organization's mishandling of Brett Baty. They also examine whether the Yankees could realistically land Angels shortstop Zach Neto and why the asking price would be enormous.

Gio's weekend plans at Fire Island. Is Jaxson Dart headed for a sophomore slump? How important is the Jets' Week 1 game against the Titans? Jerry's update opens with Kendrick Perkins claiming that the Heat “leaking” the LeBron introductory press conference was planned. What's up with Jerry's health issues? Jerry says the moment of the day is himself stumbling on his words. Does Rami think the show will fall apart after Boomer retires? People can't get enough of the LeBron decision. Boomer wonders if Juan Soto getting everything he wants irks some teammates.

Boomer and Gio open with makeup fixes, a SiriusXM recap, Harbaugh's flat Giants speech, Jerry's dinner report, Caballero's pitch clock issue during the Yankees' split, the Mets' abysmal defense, Heyman's X fight, and defining "cuck." Then, they dive into Fire Island, rogue callers slipping past Al, morning vs. afternoon shifts, Anthony Volpe's big moment, golf rivalries, and a Death of a Salesman review. Hour three brings a CBS Sports graphic blunder, Max Fried's return, secret MLB rule changes, early football hype, Cleveland's LeBron pitch, and golf course drink etiquette. Finally, they close with Fire Island weekend plans, Jaxson Dart and Jets outlooks, Kendrick Perkins' LeBron conspiracy, Jerry's health and verbal stumbles, the show's post-Boomer future, LeBron chatter, and whether Juan Soto is irking his teammates.

There are a couple of big deadlines on the baseball calendar ahead and with so many people focused on the Trade Deadline in terms of big leaguers who could change hands, Jim Callis, Jonathan Mayo and Jason Ratliff looked a lot at the other side of that coin on this week's Pipeline Podcast: the prospects. They looked back: at blockbuster prospect deals of Deadlines past, headlined by the huge Juan Soto to the Padres trade in 2022, determining who won the biggest trades of the past decade. They also looked ahead: by examining which teams are best positioned to deal prospects to bring in big league help at this Deadline, starting with the Dodgers. Then the guys switched gears to look at the Draft, with the signing deadline coming next week, by creating a list of 2026 picks who could be the quickest to the big leagues. They finished off with a fun question about where prospects Leo De Vries and Ethan Salas would have gone in this year's Draft. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Giant Mess podcast host. Neal Lynch is breaking down the turbulent and largely disappointing 2026 season for the New York Mets up to the All-Star Break. From a disastrous 10-21 start in April to a brief glimmer of hope in May, it has been a rough ride that culminated in a major collapse and the firing of manager Carlos Mendoza in June. We discuss the standout performances from rookies Carson Benge and A.J. Ewing, plus Juan Soto carrying the offense and earning a starting nod in the 2026 All-Star Game. However, with a 40-57 record at the break, baffling mental errors on the basepaths, and Little League-level defense, the Mets have their worst halfway record since 2018. Join us as we explore the looming August 3 trade deadline and whether the front office will sell off pieces like Freddy Peralta, Luke Weaver, and impending free agents like Brooks Raley. We also cover the struggles and staggering strikeout rates of major additions like Bo Bichette, Steve Cohen's confidence in President of Baseball Operations David Stearns, and what the rest of this season holds for interim manager Andy Green.#mets #nymets #newyorkmets #mlb #baseball #carlosmendoza #juansoto #franciscolindor #mlbtradedeadline #mlbtraderumors #davidstearns #stevecohen #metsbaseball NY Mets Fan Rants & Analysis - https://bit.ly/MetsYTPlaylist Movie Reviews - https://bit.ly/GiantMessMovieReviews TV Show Reactions - https://bit.ly/GiantMessTV Funny Stories -  https://bit.ly/GiantMessFunnyStoriesABOUT NEAL LYNCH:Neal Lynch is the creator and host of Giant Mess, a podcast blending sports commentary, pop culture analysis, and storytelling.

The NFC playoff race may be far more open than anyone realizes, and that gives the Giants a legitimate reason for hope. Shaun Morash is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber, and Shaun explains why only a few NFC teams feel like postseason locks. He is not predicting a Giants playoff berth yet, but uncertainty surrounding the Eagles, Packers, Lions, Vikings, Seahawks and 49ers has him talking himself into the possibility. Tiki also examines how the MLB trade deadline can affect young Yankees such as Anthony Volpe, while Geno Smith's future, the annual Cowboys hype cycle and the Mets' chances of rebuilding their rotation spark more debate. Plus, callers deliver bold predictions involving Dallas, Juan Soto and a potential Mets rebound.

Shaun Morash and Tiki Barber debate whether the MLB All Star Game was truly boring or simply a low scoring display of pitching and defense. They question the lack of star power, react to the unusual cast of pitchers deciding the game, and hear from callers who saw the night very differently. The conversation also features an outrageous Yankees trade proposal, an emotional Giants memory, and a closer look at the relationship between Francisco Lindor and Juan Soto. Tiki explains why teammates do not need to be close friends to succeed together, as long as mutual respect and a shared commitment remain.

Shaun Morash and Tiki Barber debate whether Juan Soto truly misses the Yankees or simply misses playing for a winning team. His relaxed moments with former teammates reignite the rivalry between Mets and Yankees fans and raise questions about how much his current situation is shaping the conversation.

Shaun and Tiki discuss the consequences of losing, the challenges of travel and television contracts, plus Juan Soto fatigue and whether Evan Roberts can truly step away from Rico Brogna while on vacation.

The Yankees keep falling into the same prolonged summer slumps, leaving Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber searching for an explanation. Is Aaron Boone failing to provide the right leadership, has Brian Cashman's approach grown stale, or is the lineup simply too dependent on Aaron Judge? The conversation also turns to the Mets and their long term roster puzzle. Evan predicts Juan Soto will eventually move to first base, while the guys assess the decision to let Pete Alonso leave, Francisco Lindor's troubling mental mistakes, and whether the Mets can build around their promising young outfielders.

Did one missing welcome message create lasting tension between Francisco Lindor and Juan Soto? Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber debate the reported origin of their strained relationship, how Soto changed the Mets clubhouse hierarchy, and whether any realistic Lindor trade could actually improve the team. The conversation shifts to the Yankees and their continued faith in Anthony Volpe despite mounting frustration from fans. Evan and Tiki also discuss whether Jose Caballero deserves the shortstop job, why Jasson Dominguez still needs more time, what happened to Austin Wells, and whether the Yankees remain the best option in a flawed American League.

Could tension between Francisco Lindor and Juan Soto be affecting the Mets, or is their relationship being overanalyzed? Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber examine how the arrival of Soto may have changed the clubhouse dynamic, whether Lindor should remain part of the Mets' future, and why trading a star shortstop is easier to suggest than execute. The conversation also turns to the Yankees' flaws, Aaron Boone's continued faith in Anthony Volpe, and whether New York is still the best team in a weak American League. Plus, Evan and Tiki react to Sean Payton's remarkable idea involving Bill Belichick, debate the appeal of European soccer, and explore how a potential MLB lockout could reshape free agency.

Ben Maller talks about what happened between WR Brandon Aiyuk and Commanders QB Jayden Daniels on social media, former Rams DT Aaron Donald dropping the "eyes" emoji on social media, Juan Soto saying he had "no issue" with Francisco Lindor, Maller Militia Feud, and more!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber react to the idea that the Mets have to trade Francisco Lindor, questioning whether the team should even think that way unless the return clearly makes them better. They break down Lindor's contract, his leadership, his fit with Juan Soto, and why Steve Cohen's comments may have reopened an unnecessary conversation. The discussion also turns to the Yankees and their glaring issues up the middle, from catcher to shortstop to second base. Evan and Tiki examine what Brian Cashman may need to address at the trade deadline, why Anthony Volpe's standing has changed, and how injuries and roster holes have shaped the Yankees' current concerns.
