Summary

Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber shift from the Giants’ wide receiver questions to a broader look at one of the strangest and most eventful offseasons in recent franchise memory. After a caller suggests Odell Beckham Jr.’s signing helped move attention away from the Abdul Carter and Jaxson Dart controversy, Evan and Tiki explain why the Giants addressing it directly may have been the smarter move all along. They break down how Carter, Dart and John Harbaugh handled the situation publicly, why confronting the issue helped stop it from lingering into training camp, and how this offseason has become a mix of drama, necessary change and legitimate football intrigue. From political noise to major roster decisions, the Giants have been anything but boring.

Yankees will surpass Tampa Bay and never look back prior to the conclusion of the NBA Finals.

0:07.2

I mean, hell, it might happen in the next three days.

0:09.7

It could happen in the next three days.

0:10.9

They are a game back to in the lost column, but I think a full surpassment of the Tampa Bay raise will happen before the finals have concluded and they will never give it back.

0:20.3

Yeah, you always have alluded to this.

0:22.2

And eventually a team's going to get cold.

0:23.8

But it is shocking how cold the

0:26.4

Tampa Reyes have gotten.

0:28.4

Because there was a moment where they couldn't lose.

0:31.3

They were playing at a level that was unsustainable.

0:33.4

True, but you looked at them and they felt

0:36.6

sound because they have two or three really good

0:39.3

starting pitchers and you felt like, all right, maybe they're just better than we expected.

0:44.2

But they have come back to Earth and I don't know what their record is over the last 10.

0:48.4

What are they, one and four and six over their last 10 games?

0:51.2

Two and six since the walkoff. Yes. And I refer to this on that Monday

as a big turning point in the AL East because the Yankees and the Rays are tied after a rain

out. It's the ninth inning and Aaron Judge, it's the two-run home run. And then the next day on

1:05.7

Memorial Day, Yankees were trailing, rays were leading, both switched. And that has been kind of the turning point because the Yankees were five and a half games out going into that Sunday game. They should have, well, they could have lost that game. I don't want to say should have. And then Monday was another swing. They could have easily been seven and a half games out. And now they're only a game out because the rays have struggled. They ended up getting swept by Baltimore.

1:28.6

They did win two out of three against the Angels. They lost to the crappy tigers last night. So, yeah, there's a little bit of a turn here going on. But I think once the Yankees pass them, they will pass them. Right. It won't be a back and forth. I think they're a better team.

1:47.3

Should the Giants have... won't be a back and forth. I think they're a better team. So I think they'll pass them and then

1:44.2

they'll surpass them and then they'll never look back. Should the Giants have traded for Miles, Garrett? We'll explore that in a few minutes, but let's get to some of your calls 888-808-108-101. 101-9. Brett is in East Northport. Hey, Brett. Hey, how's it going, guys? Love the show. appreciate you
