Summary

Jared has joined forces with his new best friend Alek Manoah in an effort to take down Gerrit Cole after meeting him in Boston this morning. Joey and Jared are arguing whether it was Cole or Judge who fired up the boys to help the Yankees sweep the Subway Series. Fernando Tatís Jr. has publicly apologized. We're breaking down the audio and deciding whether it's sincere and if we believe him. Oneil Cruz hit a ball 122.4 mph which is the highest recorded exit velocity in the Statcast era. The 2023 MLB Schedule was announced and we're discussing whether we like the new scheduling format. Arte Moreno is reportedly looking to sell the Angels and Jared might be the buyer. Carlos Correa returns to Houston and Jared absolutely rips apart his wife's YouTube channel. The Cleveland Guardians are in first place and Jared is guaranteeing that they win the division by at least six games. Jordan Montgomery pitched a complete game, one-hit shutout which leads to us grading the Yankees trade deadline as a whole. Enjoy!
