Summary

Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber cover a packed show that starts with a wild Yankees stat and quickly turns into a bigger debate about greatness, consistency, and how Aaron Judge stacking up against Mickey Mantle changes the way fans think about power hitters. From there, the conversation shifts into football with a lively breakdown of whether the Jets should trade up for Carnell Tate, how the Giants could factor into that decision, and what smart team building really looks like heading into the draft. The episode also dives into growing Mets frustration, from Francisco Lindor concerns to bigger questions about David Stearns, Carlos Mendoza, and whether this offense is already becoming a serious problem. Along the way, Evan and Tiki mix in sharp reactions, fan calls, and the kind of sports talk chaos that makes this segment feel big, opinionated, and fun from start to finish.

0:48.8	Yet, when it comes to multi-home run games, Judge just passed them.
0:50.7	Did you not find that odd?
0:53.4	What am I finding odd?
0:55.5	Like, why Judge doesn't have more home runs?
1:01.4	No, like that judge passed Mantle on multi-home run games when he's hit so many fewer home runs than Mickey Mansell.
