(0:00) Matt McCarthy begins the show with instant reaction to the Red Sox (7-5) win over the Giants Friday night. Former Red Sox 3B/DH Rafael Devers went (0-5) including a 9th Inning strike out to Sox Closer, Aroldis Chapman. McCarthy highlights the positive momentum the Red Sox have built post-Devers trade, attributing the Sox' recent successes to quality starting pitching and ridding Devers from the ballclub. (14:46) McCarthy analyzes comments made by Raffy Devers pregame yesterday regarding his willingness to play 1B for the Boston Red Sox. McTakey believes Devers is disingenuous when he states he would've been open to playing 1B, if the team would've approached him in Spring Training, highlighting his slow start was because of his lack of presence at Spring Training. Would Devers still be in Boston if he would've transitioned to 1B when the team asked him to? Jeff Passan reports on the Devers saga. (26:40) McCarthy re-hashes the "alignment" moniker made by Sam Kennedy & Craig Breslow during the media call last week following the trade of Devers to SF. Matt references "defensive alignment" and interprets those remarks as tacit shots at Devers' poor defensive reputation. McCarthy continues with the Devers trade fallout by describing how Devers was notified on the team's plane to the smear campaign levied against him. (39:02) McCarthy continues to break down the Rafael Devers trade to SF. He proclaims the situation became personal between Devers and management. More testimonial from the latest Jeff Passan reporting. Callers weigh in on the Devers trade. ------------------------------------------- FOLLOW ON TWITTER/X: @MattMcCarthy985 | @jorgiesepulveda

Will Doctor gives you the sharpest picks for the action at TPC River Highlands -Discussing top 4 names on odds board -2 matchups -1 t10 -3 outrights (+325, 40/1, 110/1) -Sleeper, FRP -Scoring, Best bet For the latest on the world of golf, follow Doc on X @drmedia59 The 2025 Travelers Championship podcast by Will Doctor offers a comprehensive breakdown of the final PGA Tour signature event of the season and a dramatic recap of the U.S. Open at Oakmont. JJ Spahn's emotional and improbable victory—highlighted by a bogey-free 66 in Round 1 and a comeback from five-over through six holes on Sunday—dominates the opening analysis. Spahn's perseverance, bolstered by past experiences like his playoff loss to Rory at Sawgrass and personal life moments, creates one of golf's most compelling storylines this year. Sam Burns, despite leading after 36 holes, faltered on Sunday with a back-nine 5-over but gained praise for his accountability in addressing a controversial rules decision on the 15th hole. Victor Hovland impressed with another top-10 major finish, while Tyrell Hatton and Cam Young finished tied for fourth, each undone by late bogeys. Carlos Ortiz's top-4 finish secured him future major spots and significant earnings. Scottie Scheffler posted a T-7 finish with elite iron play but struggled with driving accuracy. Brooks Koepka showed flashes of his major-winning form with a T-12 finish. Bryson DeChambeau and Keegan Bradley both disappointed due to poor putting and iron play, respectively. Collin Morikawa dazzled tee-to-green but suffered a shocking putting regression. Betting-wise, Will Doctor's card went down 2 units for the week, bringing his YTD loss to 70.7 units. Matchup wins included Rahm over McIlroy and Matsuyama as top Japanese, while Åberg missed the cut as the top Nordic. For the Travelers Championship, Doctor critiques the 72-man no-cut format, urging a return to 120-player fields with cuts and innovations like a shot clock. Course characteristics at TPC River Highlands favor accurate drivers and elite wedge players. Scottie Scheffler headlines as a strong pick at +325 with no statistical weaknesses. Rory McIlroy is passed on due to poor wedge play and fatigue. Morikawa is deemed overpriced despite his iron strength. Schauffele is dismissed for weak wedge approach stats. Matchups include Akshay Bhatia over Sungjae Im and Sepp Straka over Patrick Cantlay, based on wedge stats and recent form. Russell Henley is endorsed as a top-10 pick and outright bet due to his improved putting and elite iron play. Additional outrights include Bud Cauley at 110-1 for his course fit and Scottie Scheffler as the favorite. First-round bet goes to Sam Burns to start strong. Fantasy lineups are provided for both DraftKings and PGATOUR.com formats, featuring Straka, Henley, McIntyre, Spieth, Bhatia, and Cauley. The scoring prediction is -20 under par, with the best bet being Henley top 10 at +275. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise reacts to the day in Pittsburgh sports news.
