Summary

Hour 1 With Gio out, Boomer & Jerry discussed the Mets' one-hit loss and sweep by the Guardians, which Boomer found unbelievable given their $400 million roster. Jerry criticized Soto's effort. C-Lo updated on the Yankees' win and the Mets' loss. Al also brought up a story already covered yesterday. Hour 2 The hour began with a call discussing Juan Soto's perceived complacency. Attention then shifted to the Jets and Giants; the Giants have stability with Brian Daboll and Joe Schoen, while the Jets face "growing pains" with a new coach and GM. The importance of preseason play for quarterbacks was debated. A caller predicted the Jets would make the playoffs. C-Lo's update followed Boomer's anecdote about seeing "mutants" outside a Broadway show. C-Lo reported the Yankees avoided a sweep, David Bednar's 5-out save, Paul Goldschmidt's pinch-hit game-winning HR, and Juan Soto's ninth-inning homer, the Mets' only hit. Jane Slater and Jerry Jones discussed Micah Parsons. The final segment covered Eddie's retirement, with Al jokingly pretending to be retired and bored, and Boomer noting frequent inquiries about his own retirement. Hour 3 Discussion points included Aaron Judge's elbow, Giancarlo Stanton's return, and retired callers unsure how to spend their time. Former Yankee Roy White advised on playing left field. C-Lo covered the Mets' near no-hitter and sweep, and Frank The Tank's Mets predictions. George Kittle discussed his job security. The hour concluded with Boomer discerning real headlines from Jerry's creations. Hour 4 Boomer and Gio are headed to Pebble Beach for golf and hiking. The NFL preseason begins, and Boomer speculates on CBS's Week 1 announcing teams. C-Lo's final update covers the Mets nearly being no-hit (saved by Soto's homer), the Arizona Rattlers' arena football loss and post-game coach rant, and Donald Trump's mispronunciation of Tua Tagovailoa. Jerry Jones was again questioned about Micah Parsons by Jane Slater. Mike Vrabel was injured breaking up a fight at Patriots camp. The Moment of The Day features Boomer encountering "mutants" in Times Square, and a caller complains about Lindor's "My Girl" walk-up music given his strikeouts. The segment ends with a look ahead to the Mets and Yankees' standings next week.

We're T-minus just a few days away from heading out to Pebble Beach. We'll get to that later on. We've got the preseason opening up for the Jets and the Giants and the rest of the NFL starting tonight. Our team's playing on Saturday. We'll get to that in a little while. And we've got, well, one team that got off the Schneid yesterday and a nice relief appearance. We'll get to them in just a moment. But I know the guy sitting to the right of me, a former NFL MVP and a long, lifelong diehard Met fan is one pissed off guy. His name is Boomer Asiason and his Metsies threw up all over themselves. Yet again, good morning, Boomer. How are you? Yeah, good morning, Jay. And I was listening to Jerry. Or Jerry, I'm sorry. No problem, Jerry. Jay, whatever. Yeah, I am a little bit annoyed. And I was listening to Al and Seelow talking this morning a little bit about this. And Al wanted the Mets to get no hit. That's, that's Al like here. But here's the thing. Like so, all right, the booze are raining down. Yeah. And this brand of baseball that they have played probably for like the last 48 games or whatever it is is worse than at any point in time last year. It's bad. It is really bad. Minus the seven game winning streak, of course, mixed in between, but you're right, consistently for.

1:28.9

It is horrendous.

1:35.0

And I keep hearing from Mendoza talking about how good his team is, how good his team is.

1:43.4

Well, you know, I don't know, maybe when they're practicing or they're meeting, they're good, because when they get on the field, they basically look flat.

2:01.3

And I don't know why this team looks flat because we talked about this yesterday with Geo. They're selling, they're getting big crowds. The crowds are great. The crowds are great. The fans are into it. But for some reason, something is missing. And I don't know what that is. And I know everybody's waiting for the big outburst. I thought they had the outburst over the weekend. But that, you know, that led

2:05.6

the nothing. And then, you know, for this team, and it's embarrassing. I don't care what anybody

2:10.6

says, getting one hit. And quite frankly, you know, there was a chance yesterday that when

2:17.1

Juan Soto hit that ball, that he might have been thrown out at first base if it doesn't go out of the building.

2:23.1

You know, because he's loafing out of the box. Now, I don't expect him to sprint the first base in a situation like this.

2:30.9

But he watched the whole thing and...

2:33.4

It gets out by literally a foot. By a foot. and it's back in. And you know what? This, to me, is like a rear guy. And he's got a nice smile on his face, you know, like he's laughing. You know, I'm sick of it. I want to see attitude. I want to see, you know, when the Mets had Gary Carter, they had,

2:51.6

Ray Knight, they had, you know, they had guys that would fight, you know, they would go on

2:57.5

losing streets, too, like every baseball team does. But I don't ever, and maybe I'm forgetting

3:03.2

things, but there were times where these guys would be fighting each other they were fighting

they're punching eric davis in the face on third base right exactly and Cincinnati and you know
