But joining us right now to kick off the power hour.

My favorite Yankee fan, the saucy-awcy, the great Jay Croucher, NBC sports batting analyst.

You see him on Sunday nights, on NBC before Sunday night football. Guy is a budding megastar. At Croucher, JD on Twitter, my friend, welcome back to the show. Let's go, Yanks. How's it going? Yeah, let's go, Yanks. Thanks, Nick. Fantastic intro. As always, you continue to outdo yourself.

It's going well.

I'm enjoying this Yankee search.

New York, or rather where I am, Stanford, is buzzing.

It's fun when the Yankees are good and not so fun when they're in a Shakespearean tragedy, as it seemed like they were with the bullpen for a while there, but it's corrected.

And if they win the division, I think they should be World Series favorites. To win it all. Not just to win the cause I was going to say. I think October will go like Othello. Yes, great first Othello reference for the show. Hopefully there's more to come on young Othello. I don't know what happens in Othello. I just thought it was like a good Shakespeare, a good play to bring up. Yeah, no, it's good. There's a lot of vowel sounds in Othello, so it sounds very Shakespearean. If they win the division, they're almost certainly going to be the one seed. And if they get the one seed and they get a buy, then I think they're the best of the four buy teams because given the Dodgers are going to be a three seed and can't get a buy. And the American League isn't particularly good. And they would have home field throughout and particularly against Seattle, which would be important. So yeah, I think that the Yankees are just as good a team as they were last year, if not better, even with the loss of Soto. I think they've patched up the roster in other parts. So, yeah, I think it'd be very exciting. Expectations would be very high, Nick, if they get the one seat. Othello kills himself at the end. I just looked it up. Sorry for the spoiler alert, 100 years after the fact.

So it is a great representation of the New York Yankees in October.

Let's talk about the Yankee.
