Send us a textThe Minnesota Twins are swept in a three game series against the Atlanta Braves at Truist Park. The boys breakdown all of the missed chances throughout the series, along some questionable decisions from the manager, Rocco Baldelli. The guys discover a potential new rule to present to Rob Manfred, and walk through the numerous roster moves made by the Twins in the last few days. David wonders if it's time to let Rocco go, and Dan wants to know why it's taken Rocco this long to discover that stealing bases is a good strategic option with the increased base sizes and the limit on the number of pickoff attempts.

Vinnie hit a million RBI's last year and now is questioning his bat speed and changing things... This whole team seems lost right now. Then we talk some Chiefs and a draft hypothetical.
Dukes and Bell get back to Braves talk as they continue to ask what is troubling the team, especially after their 3-1 loss to the Blue Jays on Wednesday as they struck out 19 times. As they discuss, Mike notes he believes the absence of hitting coach Kevin Seitzer and Ron Washington is a factor. As the discussion continued, they note the Braves offense is more of the issue as they currently sit 26th in RBI's and have struggled with runners in scoring position.
Send us a textThe Minnesota Twins take 2 of 3 against the New York Mets at Target Field. Andrew "Hoges" Hoganson fills in and the boys discuss the listless performance put forth by the Twins in game one, and then turnaround for the team in games 2 and 3. The Twins pitching staff still doesn't know how to throw to 1st base, and David aligns with Rocco in his feelings about Jorge Alcala. Hoges thinks Rocco should have a quicker hook when relievers are struggling, and David is confused why Vazquez is hitting with the bases loaded. David offers a crazy take about Carlos Correa and Hoges is furious with all of the soft tissue injuries plaguing the roster. The guys discuss the recent Team USA Captain news and make their picks for the upcoming Braves series. Thanks for listening, and as always, go Twins!

The Mariners win in Cincinnati and Cal Raleigh does it all. Cal is our superstar and he played like it last night with some incredible defensive efforts and a home run from each side of the plate. :30- Mariners Morning After- Bryce Miller delivered a solid 5 innings, Dylan Moore keeps on hitting, Randy adds another RBI, Vargas steps up and Cal dominates in the Mariners 5-3 win yesterday. :45- The college football transfer portal is open and all eyes are on Nico Iamaleava as rumors swirl that he's headed to UCLA.
On a chilly Tuesday night at Great American Ball Park, the Cincinnati Reds secured an 8-4 victory over the Seattle Mariners in the series opener, marking their fourth straight win and pushing their record to 9-8, above .500 for the first time since May 2024. The game was a showcase for Austin Hays, who made a thunderous debut with the Reds after missing the season's first 16 games due to a left calf strain. Signed to a one-year, $5 million contract in January, the 2023 All-Star outfielder proved his worth, going 2-for-4 with four RBIs, including a pivotal three-run homer, and etched his name in Reds history as only the third player since 1920 to drive in at least four runs in his team debut. The Reds trailed early, with Mariners' Dylan Moore hitting a leadoff homer and adding a two-run shot off starter Nick Lodolo, who struggled, allowing four runs over 4 2/3 innings. Seattle's Luis Castillo, a former Reds ace, held a 4-2 lead into the fifth, but Cincinnati's offense, bolstered by Hays and Gavin Lux, flipped the script. Lux, who had four hits, drove in two runs, including an RBI single in the fifth that set the stage for Hays. With two on, Hays crushed a 1-1 fastball from Castillo to center field for a go-ahead three-run homer, giving the Reds a 6-4 lead they wouldn't relinquish. The crowd of 17,205 roared as Hays rounded the bases, signaling his arrival as a key piece in Cincinnati's lineup. The Reds' bullpen sealed the win, with Scott Barlow earning the victory, and Graham Ashcraft, Tony Santillan, and Emilio Pagán combining for scoreless relief. Pagán closed the ninth with ease, retiring the Mariners in order. Despite Moore's two homers and four RBIs for Seattle, their four-game win streak ended as Castillo faltered, allowing six runs in 4 1/3 innings. Hays' debut underscored the Reds' offensive potential, especially with Matt McLain and Alexis Diaz also returning from the injured list. As Cincinnati eyes a strong homestand, Hays' historic night suggests he could be the spark to sustain their momentum. The teams face off again Wednesday, with Nick Martinez starting for the Reds against Bryce Miller.
This is Nelson John, and I'll bring you the top business and tech stories, let's get started. 1. India's $4 Billion Tech Design Ambition India is aiming to move up the electronics value chain with a proposed $4 billion Design-Linked Incentive (DLI) scheme. The goal? To go from “Make in India” to “Design in India.” The scheme will support 30 semiconductor and 30 electronics categories, including Wi-Fi chips, EV components, and smart meters. Incentives will be based on investment and turnover, with a focus on creating patents and IP. This comes as India files only 60,000 patents annually, far behind the U.S. and China, which each cross the one-million mark. As production-linked incentives for mobile phones wind down, this move could mark India's next leap in tech manufacturing and innovation. 2. Inflation Eases, RBI Shifts Focus to Growth Retail inflation in March dropped to 3.34%, the lowest since August 2019, thanks to cooling food prices. Food inflation fell sharply to 2.69% from 8.5% a year ago. This dip prompted the Reserve Bank of India to cut the repo rate to 6%, with more cuts expected in June. With 12 states reporting inflation below the national average and cereals inflation at a 33-month low, analysts expect the RBI to focus more on supporting growth. 3. Ericsson's India Sales Slip as 5G Rollout Slows Swedish telecom firm Ericsson reported its sixth straight quarterly revenue dip in India, down 28% year-on-year, as major telcos Airtel and Jio near completion of their 5G rollout. However, revenue rose 32% sequentially, thanks to new contracts from Vodafone Idea and Airtel. India remains Ericsson's second-largest market, though its share of global revenue dropped to 7% from 10%. Globally, Ericsson's sales rose 3%, and net profit jumped 63%, signaling strength outside India. The company remains confident in its long-term prospects despite the domestic cooldown. 4. IndiGo Becomes World's Most Valuable Airline In a landmark moment, IndiGo's market cap hit $23.45 billion, making it the world's most valuable airline. That's higher than Delta, American, or Lufthansa. The airline commands over 60% of India's domestic market and has proven resilient through multiple industry downturns. Massive aircraft orders placed early have given it an edge amid global supply shortages. The company's rise is also being seen as a case for privatization—IndiGo has thrived while government-owned airlines have floundered. Still, issues like falling service quality and limited competition loom. 5. Diamond Exports Hit 20-Year Low India's diamond and jewellery exports are in a deep slump. Exports of cut and polished diamonds fell 15% in FY25 to ₹1.12 trillion, the lowest in nearly two decades. Overall gems and jewellery exports dropped 10%, marking the third straight year of decline. The sector has been hit by post-pandemic demand shifts, sanctions on Russian diamond supplies, and now, slowing consumer demand in the U.S. and China. Lab-grown diamonds, which cost a fraction of natural ones, are also undercutting demand. The industry is calling for government support through tax breaks, easier credit, and promotion campaigns to revive growth.
On a cold, windy, rainy night in Minnesota, the Mets picked up a tidy 5-1 victory over the lowly Twins.While none of Clay Holmes first few outings have been quite as dominant as his efforts in Spring Training, you can see the makings of an excellent starting pitcher.He picked up his second win of the season, going 5 innings, with 2 walks, 2 hits and 8 strikeouts. For a moment, he looked like the wheels were about to come off in the 5th, after a walk, a hit by pitch, a wild pitch and a 2nd walk loaded the bases. But he was able to find it again, getting out of the inning, only allowing 1 run.On the offensive side, Pete Alonso stayed hot, with 2 hits, 2 walks, an RBI, and a run scored. Acuña was on base 3 times, and Juan Soto added a big 2-run homer.#LGM #Mets #MLB
Pete Alonso stays red hot adding another RBI to his total, while Soto looks cold but hits his 2nd home run of the season. Plus Clay Holmes gives a solid 5.

Send us a textFor the fourth time this season, the Minnesota Twins lost a series, this time at home to the first-place Detroit Tigers. But they did salvage at least a win, in Game 3, showing that even a fourth-place team still wins once in a while. With David taking a Buxton-like scheduled off-day, Hoges fills in to talk about the team with Dan, and both have lots to say about manager Rocco Baldelli. They question his handling of basically the entire roster, from decisions on pinch-hitting and pinch-running to how long to let starters and relievers stay in the game. In the end, though, they are the least impressed with how little impact it seems (so far) the changes he instituted in spring training have made to a team that resembles the one that ended last season far more than the team that cruised into first place last summer.

Sho Alli and Julia Kreuz break down the Blue Jays' 7-6 extra-innings win over the Orioles in Baltimore! They take your texts on this podcast-only edition of the show, and get to the play of Jeff Hoffman's 4 Ks in two innings of work - how important has his addition been to the back-end of the bullpen? They discuss Bo Bichette coming through to tie the game in the eighth inning, Alejandro Kirk with a pair of RBI including his first home run of the season, and George Springer being removed from this game with left wrist discomfort. Plus, the team still endured a few sloppy mistakes on defence and on the base paths - can that be cleaned up going forward? 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.
The Nats trailed 4-0, but stormed back for a 7-4 victory on Friday night in Miami. Mark & Al have plenty of offensive highlights to address, but begin with an update on CJ Abrams, who exited the game early due to a hip flexor strain. (07:00) The Nats had more extra base hits than they did singles in the win. The most pivotal one was Nathaniel Lowe's pinch-hit 3 run double that gave Washington a 5-4 lead in the 8th. Lowe was a late scratch from the starting lineup due to illness and later persevered through a 10 pitch at bat for the big hit.(10:45) James Wood homered for the fourth time in the past four games. Wood hit a towering shot in the top of the 9th to give the Nats much needed insurance.(12:40) Bell put Washington on the board with a 2 run HR in the top of the 6th. Bell was moved to 1B after Lowe was a late scratch and that ultimately led to Alex Call taking over in LF for the DHing James Wood. Call took advantage as he drew four walks and had a RBI double for the final run.(20:00) Mitchell Parker did not have a good outing, but the team is nonetheless 3-0 when he starts this season. Parker gave up four runs in the bottom of the 5th and his poor defensive mechanics were a major culprit.(24:30) The bullpen finally had a game without surrendering a run in 2025. Lucas Sims walked the tightrope in his lone inning and Kyle Finnegan overcame a leadoff double to secure the save.(28:45) This was game one of a ten game road trip in three different cities. They can reach .500 with a victory on Saturday vs. Sandy Alcantara as they currently sit at 6-7.
Sho Alli and Julia Kreuz break down the Blue Jays' 5-4 loss vs. the Orioles in Baltimore. They take your texts, and get right to Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s mistakes that likely cost the Jays a number of runs - is that something that can be cleaned up going forward? They discuss the 5.2 IP from Bowden Francis - did he deserve a better fate? Plus, they discuss Bo Bichette going three-for-five with an RBI but also being set down as the game's final out, and Anthony Santander clobbering his first home run of the year versus his former team.

Send us a textDespite some good pitching performances, the Minnesota Twins lost another series, this time three games out of four to the Kansas City Royals in Kansas City. David and Dan see plenty of culprits, mostly on the lineup card in the poor performances by Jose Miranda and Byron Buxton (whom both of them hope is able to tend to family matters while he is away). The lack of fundamentals in baserunning and fielding are concerning to David, while Dan thinks that Rocco Baldelli mishandled his trip to talk to home plate umpire Nic Lentz during Game 1 of this series. They discuss whether David Festa or Zebby Matthews will assume a more permanent role in the rotation in Pablo Lopez's absence, and they talk about whose spot on the roster Brooks Lee will take.

The Cincinnati Reds and Pittsburgh Pirates kick off a three-game series at Great American Ball Park this weekend, April 11-13, 2025, with both teams looking to climb out of the NL Central basement. Tied for last place, this matchup feels like a generational clash of two franchises struggling to recapture past glory. The Reds, favored slightly at -155 for Friday's opener, aim to capitalize on home-field advantage, while the Pirates, at +129, hope to spoil the party. Friday's game sets the tone with Reds' right-hander Brady Singer facing Pittsburgh's lefty Bailey Falter. Singer, projected to anchor Cincinnati's rotation, looks to exploit a Pirates offense averaging a meager 2.6 runs over their last five games, with a .198 batting average and just one homer in their past three. Falter, coming off a rough outing against the Yankees, allowed seven runs, but his earlier start showed promise with only two earned runs over six innings. The Reds' lineup, led by Elly De La Cruz's .250 average and 12 RBI, will test Falter's ability to rebound. TJ Friedl and Jose Trevino add depth, though Cincinnati's 26th-ranked .231 team average last season suggests inconsistency. Saturday's 6:40 p.m. ET clash and Sunday's 1:40 p.m. ET finale remain murkier, with Pittsburgh's Carmen Mlodzinski slated for Sunday but no Reds starter confirmed. Cincinnati's rotation faces challenges, with Andrew Abbott potentially returning from injury, but their pitching staff boasts a 3.15 ERA and 0.98 WHIP, a clear edge over Pittsburgh's sputtering offense. The Pirates dodge a bullet missing Paul Skenes, whose absence leaves their rotation thinner. Pittsburgh's -19 run differential, worst in the NL Central, underscores their early-season woes. Both teams have injury concerns: Cincinnati's Matt McLain, Tyler Stephenson, and others are sidelined, while Pittsburgh's Johan Oviedo remains out. Yet, this series feels like a chance for the Reds to make a statement. Their losses have been close, unlike Pittsburgh's blowouts. With Friday's game on Apple TV+ and the weekend on FanDuel Sports Ohio, fans can expect tight, low-scoring affairs—Vegas sets the over/under at 8.5 runs for Friday. De La Cruz's speed and power could tilt the scales, but Pittsburgh's Bryan Reynolds might counter if he finds his groove. Expect a gritty, pivotal series as both teams fight for early momentum.
The Nats fell behind right away and lost to the Dodgers 6-5 on Wednesday afternoon to halt the win streak. Mark & Al begin with Jake Irvin, who had one of odder outings you will ever see. Irvin gave up four runs to the first four batters up, but then retired 18 of the final 21 Dodgers he faced.(12:00) The bullpen unfortunately continued their stretch of giving up a run every game this season. Eduardo Salazar took over for Irvin, but gave up a pair of runs in the 7th to give the Los Angeles the lead for good.(15:15) The offense quickly overcame the early four run deficit after Luis Garcia Jr.'s RBI double in the bottom of the 3rd. They collectively showed patience at the plate by drawing seven total walks. CJ Abrams hit a leadoff homer, his 4th time going deep this season.(19:30) Do you prefer James Wood in LF or at DH? Wood played LF on Wednesday and drew two walks while going 0 for 3 at the plate.(25:20) Washington is off on Thursday and on Friday in Miami they embark on a 3 city/ 10 game road trip with no off days in between.(27:30) We remember a member of the 2005 Nationals Tony Blanco, who tragically passed away this week in the Dominican Republic in the nightclub accident that also claimed Nelson Cruz's sister & former MLB pitcher Octavio Dotel.

The Nats have now won three in a row after defeating the defending World Series champion Dodgers 6-4 on Monday night in Navy Yard. Mark & Al discuss MacKenzie Gore's solid outing where he only allowed a pair of runs in six innings of work. Those two LA runs came off of a Shohei Ohtani 2-run HR, part of his evening where he was a double shy from the cycle.(10:00) Kyle Finnegan not only got the save, but took care of the final five outs. He has recorded the final out in three consecutive days and in all likelihood will be unavailable on Tuesday.(17:10) James Wood homered for the first time this season to put Washington ahead 5-2. Wood was removed in the top of the 9th for defensive purposes by Jacob Young even though Wood was on deck if the Dodgers forced a bottom of the 9th.(22:10) Keibert Ruiz had a RBI double to extend the lead to 6-2. Ruiz's strong start to the season continues as his OPS is currently at .981.(25:00) There were more instances of runners getting thrown out on base and three Nats have been tagged out at home in the past two days. This has an ongoing issue over the past few seasons.(30:30) Brad Lord will start for the injury plagued pitching staff on Tuesday and Jackson Rutledge will likely come into relieve him. Lord was a starter in the minors and transitioned to a reliever during Spring Training.

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker break down the Blue Jays' 6-2 win over the Red Sox to kick off the four-game series at Fenway Park! They take your calls, and also get into Vladimir Guerrero Jr. reportedly signing a 14-year, $500 million deal - how do people feel about the deal, and how does it affect the way the Jays will do business going forward? Plus, they discuss José Berríos hurling seven strong innings of one-run ball, George Springer with four hits and three RBI, and Andrés Giménez doing it all in the win. 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.
Tyrone Taylor provided a huge insurance run with a RBI single in the bottom of the 8th as the Mets won their 5th straight game and he met with Pat McCarthy following the game to discuss the hit and the victory.
The Gators hoisted the National Championship Trophy after an intense final game. Houston held a 12 point lead in the 2nd half, but it doesn't seem fair to say they blew it. Florida was the better team and it was only a matter of time before they showed it. :30- Mariners Morning After- The Mariners managed a 4-3 win over the Houston Astros last night at T Mobile behind the bat of Jorge Polanco, yet again. Polanco leads with team with 10 RBI this season. Logan Gilbert also had a solid outing, but still can't get a W of his own. :45- Draftmas Stocking Stuffers - It would take an historic move to get the Titans to move off the #1 pick - Adam Schefter is sticking to his idea that Shadeur Sanders will not go in the top 2 - Would the 49ers make a move to trade Brock Purdy and bring in Aaron Rodgers, then draft Sanders?
What more could you ask for than a sweep in the first home series of the season? The Mets and Blue Jays played a quick, old school kinda game on Sunday, with New York picking up a narrow 2-1 victory.David Peterson started and was good, though he didn't last long, only 4.2 innings. He was relieved by Max Kranick, Reed Garrett, AJ Minter and Edwin Díaz, all of whom were excellent. The Mets bullpen has the lowest ERA in baseball (and their entire pitching staff, including the starters, boasts the same feat!)Pete Alonso continues to stay hot and drive in runs in big spots, as he picked up his 11th RBI today, in only the 9th game of the season.
US equity futures sharply lower, with S&P futures down 3.4%. European equities sharply lower and Asian equities suffered their worst declines since 2008. Markets remain pressured by ongoing tariff concerns, with Trump dismissing recent volatility and reiterating tariffs as structural measures aimed at trade rebalancing and funding. Multiple countries expressed openness to negotiations, but uncertainty persists given Trump's commitment to aggressive tariff policy. Meanwhile, China state media indicated possible frontloading of stimulus measures, including RRR and interest rate cuts. Asian authorities intervened to stabilize markets, with Taiwan temporarily banning short selling and RBI expected to provide significant cash injections.Companies mentioned: TikTok, Meta Platforms
Send us a textThe Minnesota Twins played at Target Field for the first time this season and drop 2 of 3 to the Houston Astros. Andrew "Hoges" Hoganson joins David in studio and the boys discuss the heartbreaking fashion in which the Twins lost game 3. David insists that Minnesota sports fans have a very different mindset than other teams' fans, and Hoges is still mad at Rocco for letting Bailey Ober make his first start of the season while clearly not 100%. The guys discuss how much longer Chris Paddack will have a role in this rotation, and find happiness in the little things as Jose Altuve struck out 5-times in the home opener.

The Cincinnati Reds recently wrapped up a four-game series against the Milwaukee Brewers, concluding on April 6, 2025, with a challenging start to their 2025 season. The Reds entered the series with a 2-4 record from their opening homestand and hoped to turn things around on the road. However, they dropped three of the four games to the Brewers, finishing the series with a 3-7 overall record and losing all three series to begin the year. The series opened on April 3 with a 1-0 loss, extending a troubling trend of low-scoring games for Cincinnati. The Reds' offense struggled mightily, managing just one run across their previous 35 innings. On April 4, they broke their scoreless streak in a 3-2 defeat, with Christian Encarnacion-Strand and Jeimer Candelario driving in runs late, but it wasn't enough to overcome Milwaukee's early lead, powered by Brice Turang's two-run homer. A bright spot came on April 5, when the Reds erupted for an 11-7 victory, snapping a four-game skid. TJ Friedl led the charge, going 4-for-5 with a homer, joined by Blake Dunn, Encarnacion-Strand, and Jose Trevino, who also went deep. Brady Singer earned the win despite allowing five runs. The series closed on April 6 with an 8-2 loss, as the Brewers capitalized on Cincinnati's pitching and defensive miscues, sealing the Reds' fate in the set. It's been a rocky 3-7 opening. They began at home with a six-game stand against the San Francisco Giants and Texas Rangers, splitting the Giants series (1-2) and taking one of three from the Rangers, highlighted by a 14-3 rout on March 31, driven by Elly De La Cruz's seven-RBI performance. However, consecutive 1-0 losses to Texas exposed offensive woes that persisted into Milwaukee. Pitching has been a strength—Hunter Greene and Singer have shone—but the bats have been inconsistent, scoring heavily in wins but vanishing in losses. With a tough stretch ahead, including a rematch with the Giants in San Francisco, the Reds, under new manager Terry Francona, must find offensive rhythm to climb out of the NL Central's fourth-place spot and reverse their 22-8 deficit against Milwaukee over the last 30 meetings.

Send JD a text message and be heard!JD TALKIN SPORTS OVI TIES THE GREAT ONE! The torch has been passed from @waynegretzky to @aleksandrovechkinofficial never thought I would see this in my lifetime. Love Gretzky congratulating @ryan.leno_4 on his first #nhl goal with @capitals plus Ovi refusing to break the record with an empty netter. @companyadjace @downtimetv @brianbarnaby @robparker1980 & @donna.fender talked @yankees @thejudge44 hit his 6th #homerun last night. Took him 29 #mlb games last year. Barns brought up good point how negative people have been this year about Yanks since losing @juansoto_25 to @mets and we see it as a blessing in disguise. I never felt Soto was a true Yankee and he obviously took the most money. Good riddance. Love that Barns & HTJ are not fair weather fans of the Yankees & Mets respectively. Honest, diehard fans. Mets won opening day with only four hits all for extra bases and @polarpete20 off to a hot start with 3 dingers and 10 RBI's. @tylor_megill 2-0 start. It's good for NYC if both teams are playing well. @d1_isaac3 @mvillemustangfb want you on a future show. @nyrangers getting beat up @njdevils 2-43 on the PP fighting for a playoff spot. I would love them to get to the #nhlplayoffs but a rebuild is needed. Lot of players underperforming. @nyknicks getting back @jalenbrunson1 but don't feel good about #nbaplayoffs
What explains the growing divide between elites and the broader public in democracies across Europe and the United States? In this episode of International Horizons, sociologist Wolfgang Streeck joins RBI director John Torpey to discuss the rise of populism, the limits of globalism, and the tensions between democracy and capitalism. Drawing from his recent book, Taking Back Control? States and State Systems After Globalism (Verso, 2024), Streeck examines how market forces, technocracy, and the erosion of national sovereignty have fueled discontent across the transatlantic world. He also reflects on the educational divide shaping political cleavages, the challenges posed by immigration, and the implications of U.S. foreign policy and security commitments in Europe and beyond. The conversation explores the shifting foundations of the postwar international order and the prospects for a more democratic and egalitarian global system. Learn more about your ad choices.

Take 10 with Tim – April 4, 20251.The talk all week has been about the Torpedo bat. It's funny that Franciso Lindor used it all last season and was a Top 3 finalist in MVP, and nobody said a thing. But, the Yankees hit nine home runs in a game, and the whole world goes crazy. Three of them were hit by the Judge, who doesn't use the bat.a.Is this something that could make a real difference or just a blip like the hockey handle was a few years ago?2.Overreacting to the first-week statistics. Can these players continue?a.Eugenio Suarez (AZ, ADP=161, Ranked=7) – 5 HR, 1 SB, 11 RBI, 5 runs, .238 BAb.Victor Scott (STL, 368.77, 38) – 1 HR, 4 SB, 5 RBI, 8 runs, .348 BAc.Wilyer Abreu (Bos, 316.33, 42) – 2 HR, 1 SB, 6 RBI, 5 runs, .500 BA in only 14 ABsd.Kyren Paris (LAA, 456.13, 78) – 1 HR, 3 SB, 3 RBI, 5 runs, .444 in 9 ABse.Jake Magnum (TB, Undrafted, 85) – 0 HR, 3 SB, 6 RBI, 5 runs, .533 BA in 15 ABs3.Overreacting to the first-week statistics on the downside. Should we be worried?a.Triston Casas (Bos, 116.19, 790) – 1 for 18, 9K/1BBi.Francisco Lindor (14.5, 785) – 2 for 20, 1 SB, 6K/0BBb.Carlos Correa (Min, 231.09, 783) – 2 for 25, 4K/1BBc.Rafael Devers (Bos, 34, 782) – 3 for 27, 16K/5BBd.Curtis Mead (TB, 476.70, 775) – 0 for 10, 3K/1BB after hitting .524 this springe.Dylan Crews (Was, 122.58, 773) – 0 for 18, 1 SB, 10K/1BB4.What three players or teams are you worried about that I might not have listed above?5.Jurickson Profar is suspended. Like…what? Is this still happening?a.Who gets his playing time in Atlanta? Bryan De La Cruz? He's 6% rostered in CBS6.The Athletics cut ties with fantasy darling Esteury Ruiz, and the Dodgers trade for him. Why do I think he gets a shot as a fifth-outfielder type of player? Any interest in NL-only or deeper mixed leagues?7.Dustin May pitched well earlier this week, but he got hit hard, and his velo is not what it was before his multiple surgeries. In 2023, his fastball averaged 97.3. On Monday, he averaged 95.4 MPH. It does appear he dropped his cutter and is now throwing he's sweeper a ton. Given its spin and movement, it's a devasting pitch.a.Dunno, what do you think? Is this someone you start with confidence?8.How about Casey Mize? He had a similar dominating outing as May and also, his stuff was not as hot as 2024. His fastball was down over a mile per hour. He did have crazy whiff rates on his pitches. His splitter, which has always been his best pitch, received a 71% whiff rate.a.Now, here's the rub, his opponent was the Mariners in Seattle. Same question with Mize, do you start him with confidence or maybe try to move him after his big start?9.What hitter are you targeting for this weekend's FAAB?10.What pitcher are you targeting for this weekend's FAAB?

Hour 1 Last night, the Mets' offense erupted, highlighted by Pete Alonso's grand slam, a much-needed boost according to Gio.
