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.

What would it mean for Aaron Judge if the Yankees won the World Series without him on the field? Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber debate whether Judge would still be remembered as a champion, how fans might use the title against him, and why history often softens the details of who actually participated in a championship run. The conversation also shifts to Max Fried's unexpected return for a doubleheader and why the Yankees are willing to use him in a limited role. Evan and Tiki examine the logic behind treating a recovering starter like part of a bullpen game, along with the roster decisions that could follow his activation.
Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber launch the Tiki Time Machine by revisiting how WFAN hosts reacted when the Yankees hired Aaron Boone in 2017. Old takes from Jerry Recco, Boomer Esiason, Mike Francesa, Evan, and Joe Benigno reveal plenty of skepticism about handing the job to a manager with no coaching experience. The conversation turns to whether replacing Joe Girardi was ultimately the right decision and why the answer remains complicated nearly a decade later. Evan and Tiki also look back at past WFAN lineups, debate John Harbaugh's playoff record, and prepare for Max Fried's return to the Yankees.
Could the Yankees win a World Series without Aaron Judge, and how would that reshape his legacy? Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber debate whether Judge would still be remembered as a champion, how Yankees fans might react, and why baseball history often blurs the details of who actually contributed to a title run. The conversation also turns to Max Fried's return, the value of using recovering starters in bullpen games, and the Yankees roster decisions surrounding his activation. Plus, the debut of the Tiki Time Machine revisits the reaction to Aaron Boone's hiring and asks whether replacing Joe Girardi was ultimately the right move.
In an abbreviated show due to a Yankees day game, we open with John Harbaugh firing up Giants fans with clips surfacing a week away from training Camp. And the Yankees make a surprising double header addition to their rotation
Today's show kicks off with Gio and Boomer spotting themselves on Netflix's Quarterback, debating NFL head coach and quarterback dynamics, and digesting ESPN layoff drama, all before Gio details his anxiety over taking his mom to a Broadway play. The guys dive into big headlines as Tom Brady teams up with WWE, LeBron James rumors swirl around Miami, and the Mets capture a win behind big Luis Robert Jr. homers and a bizarre "ruptured testicle" saga that sparked a legendary call from Reggie in Queens. Rounding out the morning, the crew breaks down WFAN's big move to SiriusXM in September, John Harbaugh's reaction to Cam Skattebo's backflip, Patrick Mahomes' return timeline, and Jay Feely's primary victory before taking callers on every wild topic of the day.
Jerry's last update of the day starts with news that Max Fried will return in the Yankees second game today. Zack Thornton had a great performance in last night's Mets win along with great defense from AJ Ewing and a moonshot by Luis Robert Jr. Harbaugh gave his thoughts on the Skattebo backflip and his 24/7 focus on the Giants. News that Patrick Mahomes may come back sooner than thought. Moment of the Day: Swollen testicle reactions.
With WFAN and other Audacy stations heading to SiriusXM in September, Gio breaks down why the deal is a win for all sides, right before intern Joe shares what it was like playing against AJ Ewing and other pro athletes in high school. Jerry steps up for his final update with news on Max Fried's return in game two of today's Yankees doubleheader, followed by the Mets' victory over the Brewers behind Zac Thornton's sharp outing, AJ Ewing's stellar defense, and a moonshot home run from Luis Robert Jr. Meanwhile, John Harbaugh tells Bob Papa and Carl Banks what went through his mind seeing Cam Skattebo's backflip, reiterating that he's focused on his squad 24/7. Plus, reports show Patrick Mahomes could be back on the field sooner than expected. The Moment of the Day revisits Reggie's swollen testicle and how Mike and Dog would react, paving the way for a final segment filled with calls about ruptured testicles to Keith Hernandez's take on the Jose Caballero and Dennis Santana drama.
Episode 447: The Trade Deadline is quickly approaching, and it's time for teams to start making decisions on who is staying and who is going. Jared, Tyler, and Jay Hay break down the major pieces rumored to be on the move this trade deadline, including Tarik Skubal, Mason Miller, Jeremy Peña, and more. The guys discuss who should buy, who should sell, and what a realistic trade package for a player like Tarik Skubal would look like. The Blue Jays' puzzling season has the crew wondering whether the team that was one out away from the World Series last year should start moving pieces for the future. Meanwhile, the Boston Red Sox are on the verge of tying and breaking their franchise record for wins in a row. Jared and Tyler reflect on the ride and share their feelings heading into a doubleheader. Jared learns about the grittiest player in baseball, and Max Fried's return to the Bronx mound leads the guys to discuss how the Yankees can shore up their roster for another postseason run.

The Yankees may not desperately need another starter, but Evan Roberts argues they cannot pass on the chance to acquire Tarik Skubal. With Gerrit Cole pitching well and Max Fried nearing a return, the debate centers on whether Brian Cashman should turn an already strong rotation into a postseason superpower or preserve top prospects for the offense and bullpen. A caller then proposes trading Jazz Chisholm for Francisco Lindor, sparking disbelief and a debate over Chisholm's clutch production. Plus, the crew ranks LeBron James' potential destinations based on the threat each would pose to the Knicks, considers whether Cleveland offers the perfect farewell story, and unveils a new segment called the Tiki Time Machine.

Craig Carton and Willie Colon break down a packed Monday on The Carton Show! Craig sounds off on Giants rookie Cam Skattebo after his viral backflip at Fanatics Fest nearly ended in disaster. Is the young star being reckless before playing a single NFL game? The guys also debate whether Yankees fans are overreacting after losing 2-of-3 to the Dodgers. Despite the series loss, did New York prove it can hang with baseball's best even without Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton, and Max Fried?

The MLB Trade Deadline is almost here, and Chris McMonigle says the Yankees have one glaring need. Craig Carton puts C-Mac to the test, asking him to name the ONE position Brian Cashman absolutely has to upgrade. The guys debate whether the Yankees should target a catcher, go all-in for Mason Miller, move Ben Rice behind the plate, and whether Will Warren or top prospects should be on the table. Plus, they discuss Aaron Judge's injury, Max Fried's return, and how the Yankees should approach a wide-open trade market.
The Yankees struck out at an alarming rate, but Evan argues that their problems go far beyond missed swings. Will Warren struggled against the bottom of Tampa Bay's lineup, Cody Bellinger made another costly mistake, and the uncertainty surrounding Aaron Judge has left the offense without an obvious solution. Instead of trying to patch every weakness, Evan believes the Yankees should make one aggressive move and trade for Tarik Skubal. Pairing him with Gerrit Cole and Max Fried could give New York the dominant rotation it needs to survive a flawed American League and make a serious championship run.
Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber turn their attention to a Yankees team that suddenly looks vulnerable in all the wrong places. What was once the club's biggest strength, the starting rotation, now feels shaky with Carlos Rodon hurt, Gerrit Cole still working back, Max Fried not fully settled, and depth arms being exposed. The guys debate whether the Yankees should have been more aggressive in pursuing a frontline starter, why the offense looks lost without Aaron Judge, and how Giancarlo Stanton's absence adds to the leadership void. They also dig into Aaron Boone's growing heat, his public defense of struggling players, and why a crucial Rays series could push the Yankees panic meter even higher.
Cole Ragans is undergoing additional arm testing after a new injury setback cutting his throwing session short. Joe Bond breaks down the latest Trade Targets segment alongside today's top highlights and the FanDuel Bet of the Day. Shohei Ohtani will not hit Wednesday but starts on the mound. Colt Keith's X-rays returned negative. Chase DeLauter is day to day with a small rib fracture. Edward Cabrera exited with a trainer. Randy Arozarena was placed on the injured list.

Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber react to a messy mix of New York sports drama, from frustration over a Brunson versus deGrom social media graphic to fresh Yankees injury updates involving Trent Grisham, Jason Dominguez, and Max Fried. The conversation turns serious with a debate over Brendan Sorsby, his college gambling history, and whether an NFL team should take a chance on him in the supplemental draft. The guys weigh talent, risk, integrity, and whether the Jets should even consider inviting that kind of controversy into their quarterback room.
The Yankees are winning games like nothing can touch them, and that's exactly the problem: everything is touching them. Aaron Judge is out with a stress fracture on his first rib, Giancarlo Stanton is back on the injured list with more imaging ahead, and key names like Trent Grisham, Max Fried, and Clark Schmidt are also sidelined. Yet the New York Yankees still sit on top of the American League. So what's real, what's luck, and what's going to break when the calendar flips to August?I dig into the stretch that includes a strong series in Toronto and the bigger reasons the team keeps stacking wins. I talk lineup sparks from Ben Rice, the steady impact of Paul Goldschmidt, and why Cody Bellinger's all-around game keeps showing up when the Yankees need it. I also get into the “edge” factor, why a player like Caballero can change the feel of a team, and why the defense looks different when the right guys are playing the right spots.Then I hit the uncomfortable truth: the bullpen is still a major concern, and the trade deadline has to be about building an October-proof roster, not just surviving June. I also put the hot start in context, because the American League has been shockingly weak, and that changes how we judge the standings. Finally, I look ahead at the schedule and the must-fix positions, from catcher production to third base stability, so the season doesn't turn into a “nice story” instead of a real run.If you're following Yankees baseball for more than highlights, subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a quick review so more fans can find the show.Send fan mailJersey Guy Sports is available on all podcasting platforms.

Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber react to Gerrit Cole's dominant return from Tommy John surgery and what it means for a Yankees rotation that suddenly looks like one of the best in franchise history. Even with injuries and moving pieces, the Yankees' starting pitching has been so strong that it changes the expectations for the entire season. The guys discuss Cole's intensity, Cam Schlittler's emergence, Max Fried's eventual return and why this may be the Yankees' best chance to cash in on a special rotation. They also explain why Brian Cashman has to be aggressive at the trade deadline, because with Cole in his mid thirties and coming off surgery, this championship window may not stay open forever.
The Mets losing Clay Holmes is really going to hurt them. We took a look at the upcoming schedule for the Mets. Max Fried is also injured for the Yankees.

Today's word of the day is ‘flamethrower' as in Jacob Misiorowski as in Brewers as in torch as in speed as in velocity. He is doing things we've never seen in the game before.

Another pitching outing where he goes seven innings and doesn't allow a run. (15:50) The Yankees have a pitching problem. Max Fried got pulled from his start with an elbow issue. Say it ain't so. He has been the most consistent pitcher for the Yankees over the last two seasons. This team cannot afford to lose someone like him. (22:30) The Marlins top prospect is hurt. Rob Snelling started just one game for the Marlins and now has a UCL problem. Uh oh. (27:31) The Cavaliers stole it from the Pistons. Just a meltdown by Detroit.

Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber close the conversation by pushing back on the idea that every baseball game should create panic, while still acknowledging the Yankees are not playing good baseball. The offense has gone quiet, the team is coming off rough series against Milwaukee and Baltimore, and the Subway Series against the Mets suddenly feels like a bigger test. The guys also break down the key moments from the Yankees' latest loss, including Anthony Volpe's strikeout in a scoring chance, Adley Rutschman's home run, and the concern surrounding Max Fried's elbow. Evan explains why the timing of any injury update could reveal a lot, while the show ends by teasing a debate over whether Suzyn Waldman was trolling Mets fans or simply offering sharp analysis.

Ewing's early opportunity in center field.
Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber react to a wild stretch for New York baseball, with the Mets finally showing signs of life behind their young players while still dealing with another injury scare. Carson Benge and A.J. Ewing bring a needed spark, but Juan Soto's foot issue keeps the good vibes from feeling completely safe. The guys also dig into the Yankees' concerns after Max Fried exits with an elbow issue, the offense goes quiet, and Anthony Volpe's return raises more questions than answers. From Mets optimism to Yankees anxiety, this episode captures the uneasy balance between hope, frustration, and the reality of a long baseball season.
The Mets finally have a little life, but even a dramatic win comes with a fresh injury scare. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber break down the energy brought by Carson Benge, A.J. Ewing, and the Mets youth movement while wondering how much hope is real with Juan Soto, Francisco Lindor, and other key pieces banged up. The guys also dig into the Yankees recent struggles, Max Fried injury concerns, Anthony Volpe's uncertain role, and what it all means heading into the Subway Series. Plus, they react to NFL schedule leaks, the Giants landing early prime time games, the Jets facing a huge Week 1 tone setter, and the usual chaos that comes with fans overreacting to baseball in May.
Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber open with Suzyn Waldman's surprising praise of Pete Alonso's defense, debating whether she was giving fair analysis or taking a subtle shot at Mets fans who doubted him. That leads into a larger Mets conversation about poor challenge decisions, umpire frustration, Carlos Mendoza's missed chance to fire up the team, and why this roster still feels difficult for fans to emotionally connect with. The guys also dig into the Yankees' recent struggles ahead of the Subway Series, weighing whether a rough stretch is just normal baseball or the beginning of something more concerning. They discuss Max Fried as the biggest worry, the difference between a true road trip and playing across town, A.J. Ewing's early opportunity with the Mets, and whether the Nets should be aggressive in trying to trade up for a potential franchise player in the NBA Draft.
