Andrew and Liam return in an out-of-cycle episode to discuss some baseball. The Yankees start of strange but end very strong while the Giants continue to slide, only winning one series and getting swept twice by the same team in two weeks. Meanwhile, Andrew brought a desk home that ended up costing a pretty penny despite being free and did the 9/9/9 challenge in Colorado.

#29 | The Yankees Win a lot While the Giants Lose a lot

Andrew and Liam return to discuss a disappointing two weeks in their teams' performance.

#28 | Yankees and Giants Both Struggle

In a shocking move, Giants President of Baseball Operations Buster Posey traded two time gold glove winner Patrick Bailey to the Cleveland Guardians for AA RHP Matt "Tugboat" Wilkinson and for the 29th draft pick. Bailey has been struggling offensively but had yet to be optioned to AAA to work on his swing. What message does this send to the rest of the team? Will this early move help the team or end better than the early trades from last year?

EMERGENCY PODCAST: Patrick Bailey Traded to the Guardians

The Yankees got out of their stumble and dominated their opponents while the Giants were on the verge of turning things around before collapsing so badly, it has Andrew thinking the season may be over.
