Summary
With Aaron Judge sidelined, Chris McMonigle says the Yankees can't afford to think small at the trade deadline. While Judge's injury is impossible to replace, Chris argues the bigger long-term concern is Giancarlo Stanton's latest setback—and makes the case for Brian Cashman to swing BIG for Rafael Devers.
Plus, Chris breaks down why the Yankees' win over the Rays was so important, why the AL is still there for the taking, and why standing pat at the deadline would be a massive mistake.

| 0:00.0 | Yes, sir. Two o'clock straight up. Welcome in on a summer Friday. It's the carton show with me, |
| 0:09.4 | Big Mac. I got you for four hours and maybe a few minutes more than that as we take it a Yankee |
| 0:14.9 | baseball as they will head to Washington off of what was the most needed win of the season. And we were able to talk about it yesterday. We came on after the game. And obviously that win for the New York Yankees was huge. We're going to get to that. We'll get to the judge injury right now. Taking your calls at 888-808-101-19 on this fun summer Friday. We got some games. |
| 0:37.9 | We're going to spin the wheel. |
| 0:39.8 | I had to come up with my own wheel categories. |
| 0:43.9 | And I am excited. |
| 0:44.9 | Hoff's excited. |
| 0:46.1 | He got here just in time. |
| 0:48.4 | We got Gallo's excited. |
| 0:49.9 | We're going to have a fun Friday. |
| 0:51.2 | And it's fun despite the fact that we don't know when judge is coming back. |
| 0:54.9 | I'm going to try and have a fun look at what's gone on here with the New York Angers, |
| 0:59.4 | and it's impossible, right? |

| 1:04.9 | That was a win that at least makes you feel like the division is a chance to be had. |
| 1:11.8 | Because if they would have fallen behind the race, six games already give them the tie break, |
| 1:20.3 | that's a long second half of the season trying to make up what would essentially be |
| 1:25.8 | eight games in the lost column. |
| 1:45.1 | So that was a huge win. But what really the story of yesterday was once you get past that and the idea, okay, they didn't just get buried by the race.
