Pete Alonso's Hall of Fame future sparks a fascinating Mets debate, as Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber wonder whether enough success in Baltimore could eventually make Alonso more closely associated with the Orioles than the Mets. Evan argues that reaching 500 home runs would likely be necessary to put Alonso on a Cooperstown path, with postseason success potentially influencing which team defines his legacy. The Yankees also face a looming roster crunch with Cody Bellinger nearing a return, and Evan insists Spencer Jones cannot be the player sent down after his recent surge. They also discuss Anthony Volpe's move to second base, the possibility of catching Aaron Judge on a minor-league rehab assignment, and Evan's mission to land the Howie Rose retirement-day Mets giveaway.

The Yankees are suddenly back in the AL East race, but Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber are split on whether this surge is real enough to catch Tampa Bay. Tiki reverses course after four straight wins and an improving lineup, while Evan refuses to abandon the larger sample without Aaron Judge. Gerrit Cole's dominant outing also sparks a major Yankees debate over whether he has actually been better in pinstripes than CC Sabathia. They also get into Michael Kay's eyebrow-raising “offensive orgy” call, Anthony Volpe's move to second base in the minors, Pete Alonso's potential Hall of Fame path, and the roster decision looming for Spencer Jones when Cody Bellinger returns. Plus, the wild New York-area storms and tornado videos lead to a debate over what anyone is actually supposed to do when a tornado hits.

We open with a preview of tonight's Jets preseason game starting Geno Smith, where a Week 1 loss could mean instant disaster. Before Peter's update, the guys recall the Jets' last victory in Miami and yesterday's crazy storms. Spencer Jones homers to complete a Yankees sweep of the Orioles and gain ground on the Rays, sparking a wild call from Michael Kay. Jacob deGrom becomes the second-fastest pitcher to reach 2,000 strikeouts, tensions turn physical at the Giants-Dolphins joint practice, and the winning Islanders alternate jersey is unveiled alongside Peter's failed attempt. Finally, the hour wraps up with a look at everyone's best, worst, and bucket-list live concerts.

A three-game sweep of the Orioles gives the Yankees plenty to feel good about, but some big roster questions are coming. We discuss the positives from the series and what the sweep could mean for the Yankees moving forward. With Cody Bellinger set to return, what happens to Spencer Jones? And after another impressive stretch from Ryan Weathers, could the Yankees have a legitimate competition between Weathers and Carlos Rodón for the rotation?

In hour 2 of The Drive, Zach and Phil take a deep dive into the Nuggets after a massive domino fell last night with Peyton Watson getting signed and traded. We react to Nikola Jokic's comments on the situation. Will the Nuggets continue to shed salary this offseason and into the regular season? Will this be a "gap year" for the Nuggets competitively before they take a big swing for 2027? Could the Nuggets be on track to be in the play-in tournament or miss the playoffs altogether next season? Did Peyton Watson want to stay with the Nuggets? The guys explain what Watson brought to the Nuggets outside of the great 15-game stretch from last year. Today's "Three Count" includes our excitement level for tomorrow night's Broncos preseason game, Spencer Jones' story from flying Frontier Airlines, and reacting to Altitude's new Nuggets broadcast. Are we seeing the end of Drew Sanders as a Bronco, after he suffered another injury? 

Cody Bellinger's return could force the Yankees into a roster decision fans will hate. Evan Roberts lays out the limited options, with Spencer Jones looking like the most likely player to be sent down despite showing promise. Tiki Barber ultimately agrees that Jones may be the move, while Evan argues the Yankees should consider carrying one fewer pitcher instead of sacrificing a young bat. The conversation then takes a lighter turn into baseball walk-up music and whether sponsorships could eventually invade one of the sport's best traditions. Evan and Tiki celebrate the connection between players, fans and iconic songs, including memories of Mets music that became permanently tied to baseball.

Craig Carton called out Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber for supposedly failing to question why Jaxson Dart returned to a preseason game after a blue-tent evaluation. Evan fires back with the receipts, proving they not only asked the question but debated it extensively, while Tiki explains why Dart still needs those valuable preseason reps. The first 20 minutes also bring encouraging news on Breece Hall's groin injury, though Tiki raises concerns about what missed practice time could mean for his Week 1 sharpness. Plus, Evan argues the Yankees must keep giving Spencer Jones opportunities when Cody Bellinger returns, and a Mets caller pushes for Kodai Senga to embrace “Ghostbusters” as his bullpen entrance music.

Craig Carton called out Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber for supposedly ignoring the biggest question about Jaxson Dart returning to a preseason game after a blue-tent evaluation. There was just one problem: they had already debated it. Evan brings the receipts, while Tiki explains why a young quarterback like Dart still needs valuable preseason reps. The conversation also turns to Breece Hall's groin injury and why Tiki worries missed practice time could affect his Week 1 readiness. Plus, the Yankees face a difficult decision with Spencer Jones when Cody Bellinger returns, Evan makes the statistical case for batting your best hitter leadoff, and the Jets debate whether winning now matters more than chasing future draft position.

Max Fried is back on the injured list with the same elbow issue that already cost him nearly two months, and Evan Roberts has zero confidence the Yankees will see him pitch again this season. Evan and Tiki Barber debate whether Fried can realistically return for October, why Carlos Rodon suddenly carries even more pressure, and how the injury reinforces baseball's harshest lesson: you can never have enough pitching. The Yankees also face a difficult roster decision when Cody Bellinger returns, with Spencer Jones looking like the likely casualty. On the Mets side, Evan refuses to call their four-game winning streak a playoff push but is enjoying the young talent and looking toward 2027. Plus, David Stearns leaves the door cracked for Andy Green's managerial future, and the guys debate whether winning down the stretch could change the Mets' plans.

Jazz Chisholm's struggles are creating a major Yankees lineup problem, especially against left-handed pitching. The debate turns to whether Luis Garcia Jr. needs to take over at second base and whether Aaron Boone must start experimenting now instead of waiting for October. That could mean Giancarlo Stanton returning to the outfield, Trent Grisham sitting, or Jazz losing playing time to keep the Yankees' best bats in the lineup. Plus, Spencer Jones' future gets debated, the Giants' running back situation comes into focus, and Aaron Glenn's ability to survive another losing Jets season may depend on just how dominant his defense becomes.

Kris and Ryan react to the Yankees winning a series against the Mariners where players such as George Lombard Jr. and Spencer Jones had their fingerprints on of their wins.

The Yankees have Shaun Morash believing again. After another comeback win over Seattle, Shaun argues this team has finally shaken off the frustration of the trade deadline and rediscovered the fight that disappeared during much of the summer. George Lombard Jr.'s arrival, Spencer Jones' impact and dominant pitching have injected new life into a team that suddenly feels different from recent Yankees disappointments. Shaun explains why the Yankees are never truly dead, why their recent surge has changed his outlook on October, and how even struggling veterans are beginning to wake up. He also unloads on Major League Baseball's confusing TV setup after spending nearly half an hour just trying to find the Yankees game.

George Lombard Jr. and Spencer Jones have energized the Yankees, but Shaun Morash sees a frustrating roster decision coming. Lombard's immediate impact only makes Shaun more annoyed that the Yankees waited until after the trade deadline to call him up, while Jones has earned the runway to keep playing every day.

The Yankees' biggest problem may soon be figuring out who actually plays. Shaun Morash explains why the returns of Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton and Cody Bellinger could create a brutal lineup crunch, especially with Spencer Jones and George Lombard Jr. forcing their way into the conversation. Shaun believes Jones has shown enough to deserve a major role and argues the Yankees may even need to consider unconventional October lineups to keep their best bats on the field. Shaun also refuses to give up on the AL East despite Tampa Bay's surge, pointing to the Yankees' remaining head-to-head opportunities. With the Bronx energized by its young players and the pitching staff built for a short series, he sees a legitimate path to a deep postseason run.

The Giants should sign Terrion Arnold if their background work gives them a legitimate path to put him on the field. Shaun Morash argues New York cannot afford to take the moral high ground when other NFL contenders routinely gamble on talented players with serious off-field concerns. With the secondary looking vulnerable, Shaun says there should be virtually no excuse for the Giants to pass if Arnold can help them win. Shaun also reacts to John Harbaugh's revealing comments about the Giants doing extensive homework on Arnold and explains why another team will sign him if New York does not. Plus, Malik Nabers continues trending toward Week 1, and the Yankees' youth movement with George Lombard Jr. and Spencer Jones sparks a bigger reflection on Aaron Judge's championship-less decade.

Spencer Jones and George Lombard Jr. have injected life into the Yankees, and Shaun Morash believes the young stars may be helping revive a season that had become increasingly frustrating. Lombard's rise up the order and Jones' production have created a playoff-like energy at Yankee Stadium, even as Shaun remains furious with Brian Cashman and skeptical about how the roster will be handled.

The Yankees suddenly look alive, and Shaun Morash is buying back in. After another dramatic comeback and a surge fueled by George Lombard Jr. and Spencer Jones, Shaun argues this team feels different from the stale Yankees of recent Octobers. The pitching remains dominant, struggling bats are waking up, and the Bronx has rediscovered its energy. Shaun hosts while Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber are away and explains why a healthy return for Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton and Cody Bellinger could make the Yankees a legitimate World Series threat. He also tackles the looming Spencer Jones roster crunch, whether New York can still chase down Tampa Bay, concerns about the bullpen, and Major League Baseball's maddening TV maze. The next big test is whether this momentum survives once the Yankees' stars return.

Shaun Morash hosts solo and is suddenly buying back into the Yankees. After another stirring comeback, he argues this team feels different, with George Lombard Jr. and Spencer Jones injecting life into the lineup while Trent Grisham and Ryan McMahon heat up around them. The frustration with Brian Cashman's deadline remains, and Morash warns that Spencer Jones could still become the odd man out when Cody Bellinger returns. The Giants create an entirely different debate as John Harbaugh addresses the possibility of adding Terrion Arnold. Morash says that if the Giants' background work and the NFL's plans leave a realistic path for Arnold to play, the secondary is too vulnerable for New York to simply walk away. Malik Nabers' Week 1 outlook also gets a boost, while Jayden Daniels gets blasted for the terrible optics of fighting LSU over another quarterback wearing No. 5.

Jerry has Dave Sims on the call as the Yankees beat the Mariners. Spencer Jones and Trent Grisham had big games. Freddie Freeman fell down the dugout stairs going for a foul ball. Garrett Wilson talked about becoming a vocal leader for the team. The Moment of The Day: Boomer's golf thrusting is turning on old women in Iowa.

We start by debating Gio's on-air burping and reduced farting, before discussing college football awards like the Rimington Trophy. Ahead of Jerry's final update, we touch on Marilyn Manson, then hear Dave Sims call the Yankees' win over the Mariners powered by Spencer Jones and Trent Grisham. We also cover Freddie Freeman falling down the dugout stairs and Garrett Wilson stepping up as a vocal leader. After the Moment of the Day reveals Boomer's golf thrusting turns on old women in Iowa, the show wraps with the WNBA forming a task force on transgender athletes and Gio pondering whether college softball or basketball has more lesbian players.

We kick off with the Yankees' win over the Mariners led by Trent Grisham's two homers, before debating fan expectations and the intense pressure of playing in NY. Ahead of Jerry's first update, we check on Boomer's lingering rhinovirus and spin soundbites from Grisham, Ben Rice, and self-described "chill bird" Spencer Jones. Finally, we cover the Mets' loss to the Braves featuring Freddie Freeman's dugout stairs tumble, John Harbaugh bringing in Terrion Arnold, Garrett Wilson praising a "super cerebral" Geno Smith, and Shane Gillis and Danny McBride reacting in shock to Steve Gergen's take on Tiger Woods.

The Yankees' offense has become impossible to trust, and a potential Wild Card matchup with the Red Sox suddenly looks dangerous. Shaun Morash and Tiki Barber admit Boston would be the pick right now, while warning that a playoff loss after last year's World Series run could force major organizational consequences. The frustration extends to Jazz Chisholm, whose struggles have opened the door for Jose Caballero to steal playing time. They debate Aaron Boone's willingness to bench struggling veterans, the Yankees' obsession with platoon matchups, Spencer Jones earning a longer runway, and whether elite starting pitching can overcome a lineup that simply cannot score enough runs.

The struggle for Pozieres would become one of the most infamous campaigns of the Battle of the Somme: some 23000 Australians would become casualties over six weeks fighting on a front barely three miles wide. The total casualties were comparable to Gallipoli and the outcome would be controversial. What happened at Pozieres and why did it degenerate into one of the bloodiest battles of the war for Australia?

Jefry Yan's explosive strikeout celebration has instantly divided Mets fans and irritated opponents. Evan Roberts loves the rookie reliever's energy but worries his constant jumping could eventually trigger retaliation, put teammates in danger, or even lead to an injury. Shaun Morash is in for Tiki Barber and argues that Yan's emotion is exactly what a lifeless Mets team needs, especially after Christian Scott praised the spark he brings to the clubhouse. Evan and Shaun also debate whether the Mets should ever consider trading Francisco Lindor, why Luis Garcia Jr. could replace Jazz Chisholm at second base, and whether Spencer Jones deserves a chance over Trent Grisham. Plus, Evan reveals his five NFL win-total unders, Shaun makes an early Chiefs-Bears Super Bowl prediction, and the Jets, Browns, Buccaneers, Colts, Falcons, and Giants all come under scrutiny.

There was no terrain on the Somme that soldiers feared more than woodland - a maze of broken stumps, fallen branches, and hidden barbed wire.

Do we agree with his assessment?

The Yankees had a four-run lead, a dominant Cam Schlittler start and countless chances to put away the White Sox, yet somehow suffered their most infuriating loss of the season. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber unload on Ali Sanchez's disastrous decision to attempt a back pick at third base with two outs, while the offense disappeared and the bullpen failed to protect another winnable game. Aaron Boone did not lose the game with his managerial decisions, but his refusal to call Sanchez's mistake unacceptable created an even bigger controversy. Evan and Tiki debate whether Boone's constant protection of his players represents the same lack of accountability that could punish the Yankees again in October. Plus, the Mets' collapsing attendance, Spencer Jones being removed despite a strong night and Tiki's surprising memories of “The Baseball Bunch.”

Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber revisit the defining mistake, reject every excuse for the unnecessary gamble and explain why Aaron Boone's public defense only intensified the frustration surrounding another sloppy Yankees loss. The conversation shifts to the Mets' alarming attendance decline despite extremely cheap tickets, with Evan arguing that disappointed fans have no interest in paying to watch a team that failed to meet major expectations. Shaun Morash also questions the decision to remove Spencer Jones after his productive night.

C-Lo starts with Positive Tommy saying nice things about Aaron Boone. We heard the sounds of Ali Sanchez trying to pick a guy off at third in the eleventh inning with the lead which resulted in the White Sox winning the game. Spencer Jones hit a 3-run HR in the first. Aaron Glenn just wants the Jets to improve. He also said, ‘I'm not trying to be a butt-hole'. Jaxson Dart talked about having Malik Nabers back.

With Boomer out, Gio & Jerry open with fan outrage over Aaron Boone pulling Cam Schlittler, though Gio insists calling to fire Boone is lazy if analytics are really to blame. C-Lo drops in for his first update featuring Positive Tommy defending Boone, audio of Ali Sanchez's disastrous 11th-inning pickoff throw that handed the White Sox a win, Boone's demand to "play catch better," and a Spencer Jones three-run homer. Rounding out the hour, Aaron Glenn drops the hype speeches to focus on improving without being a "butt-hole," Jaxson Dart reacts to getting Malik Nabers back, and Niko runs the board for the first time with Boomer and Rami away.

In the third hour of Dover and Cecil,  the guys start the hour asking our big training camp question of the day. What can we expect from JK Dobbins next season? Can he stay healthy this year? Does JK need to have a pitch count to avoid injury? Will he be a thousand-yard rusher? We got more news on Payton Watson and his potential contract extension?

The Yankees won two of three against Philadelphia, but Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber are alarmed by an offense that has become nearly unrecognizable. With Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton and Cody Bellinger sidelined, Evan calls the current lineup one of the worst the franchise has fielded in decades and argues that elite pitching is the only thing keeping the season afloat. The weakness of the American League only increases the pressure on Brian Cashman to be aggressive before the trade deadline. Evan and Tiki debate which bats the Yankees need, whether Spencer Jones and George Lombard Jr. should be part of the solution and why multiple moves may be necessary. Plus, they defend Jose Caballero after an umpire ruled that he intentionally dropped a line drive.

On the latest episode of Pickaxe and Roll, Ryan Blackburn breaks down the contract that Spencer Jones signed over the weekend.
