Summary
Segments 1 and 2 – Review of weekend games
Additional Questions
1.I know the Cardinals have underperformed, particularly on the pitching front, but Steven Matz has surprising pitched well. ERA of 3.86, xERA of 3.89. What did everyone miss coming into the season with him?
2.George Kirby or Logan Gilbert. As the great Kevin McCalister said…Do you give up, or are you thirsty for more?
3.Well, we got a few good weeks from Mickey Moniak, but he’s been brutal for the last two weeks. He’s 7 for 52 with 25 strikeouts. So, you are the guru of the waiver wire game of catch and release. Is it time to release Moniak?
4.Are you ready to trust Sandy Alcantara after his shutout of the Yankees on Saturday, or are you still worried?
a.If the season ended today, the Yankees would not make the playoffs. Will that be the case at the end of the season?
5.Curtis Mead. I still don’t see how he gets full-time playing time. Has your position changed from last week, or do you still think people should be running him out there?
a.What about the Davis Schneider? What do we do with him? He had a big day on Monday, but 1 for 12 after that.

| 0:32.4 | Tim, what's going on? |
| 0:35.1 | Well, I'm just looking at box scores, I'm liking what I'm seeing in Tampa Bay |
| 0:42.5 | is Bibi's got himself a 9-to-1 lead. All he's got to do is get through that fifth inning and |
| 0:49.9 | life becomes very good. Yeah, I mean, he's, he's been really good this year, Tim. |
| 0:54.9 | I have him in a couple of leagues. |
| 0:56.0 | I've been very, very happy with his performance. |
| 0:59.2 | Got to tell you. |
| 1:00.2 | Yeah. |
| 1:00.4 | Yeah, I watched his last outing, I believe it was against the Jays. |
| 1:07.8 | And he struggled at times, but he never lost his composure. |
| 1:12.5 | He always had his poise, and he managed to get out of jams he got himself into. |
| 1:18.3 | And he really, really impressed me, especially not only the skills, |
| 1:23.3 | but the fact that I think he's showing a maturity level that I wasn't expecting, |
| 1:32.2 | not this early in his career anyways. |
| 1:35.6 | It's amazing what spin will do. |
| 1:38.0 | That's all I'm going to say. |
| 1:39.1 | I mean, people can talk maturity. |
| 1:40.9 | They can talk whatever they want. |
