| 0:00.0 | I have a John Carlos Stanton take that I want to get Tiki's opinion on because Stanton, you saw it again last night, he is red hot. |
| 0:09.1 | I would say regular season-wise, this is about as hot as he's ever been as a Yankee. |
| 0:14.3 | Right, and it's awesome because he's not playing regularly per se. |
| 0:18.0 | He's not an everyday type player, but whenever you call on him, he hits the ball |
| 0:22.4 | 103 miles an hour over the fence. It's kind of awesome that he can just turn it on. Like he's the |

| 1:03.6 | So my take is this. |
| 1:05.8 | John Carlos Stanton is the most impactful, underrated, and underappreciated Yankee over the last eight years. |
| 1:14.7 | What? |
| 1:15.7 | Hold on. |
| 1:16.7 | Let me think about this. |
| 1:19.1 | Impactful? |
