Summary

This segment bounces from Yankees future talk to a heated Knicks debate, blending sports analysis with the kind of off-the-rails humor that keeps the conversation moving. The crew reacts to Jorge Posada’s candid comments about coaching, wonders whether Francisco Cervelli could someday be a real Aaron Boone replacement, and digs into how much of the Yankees’ direction really comes down to Boone versus Brian Cashman. The second half zeroes in on Mikal Bridges and the question hanging over the Knicks: should Mike Brown sit him to snap his slump, even if it ends his consecutive games streak? The discussion weighs performance, fatigue, team priorities, and player pride, before spiraling into a hilarious detour about NBA iron-man streaks, A.C. Green, and far more personal oversharing than anyone probably expected.

0:00.0	While I'm watching Pasada coaching and Francisco Cerville managing, it's been a thought like,
0:04.9	hey, are these guys candidates to replace Aaron Boone? So I forget who was. It may have been Jeter, but you'll hear it in the clip. Pasado is as point blank. Do you want to manage? Sometime in the future. Yeah. Being a coach or manager. Is that something you want to do? This is hard, Jeep, because you hear, I mean, the games at 8 of 5, I had to be here at 1.30.
0:27.3	We leave, you know, after everybody. I don't know. I'm never saying never, but it's hard.
0:34.0	I don't think I can be a manager or coach, but you never know.
0:40.1	The 1.30 is killing you, not the night. Not the late nights and killing you, man.
0:44.2	No, it's just a lot of time at the field, you know, just prepping and, you know, looking at video, scouting.
0:51.2	It just, it takes a lot.
0:53.5	Oh, he can't manage. He can not manage. Yeah. That answer is like, it takes a lot. Oh, he can't manage.
0:54.3	He cannot manage.
1:12.7	That answer is like, it's a long-ass season. It sounds like when we tell Tiki, we've got to do the show until 8.30. Yeah, no, I'm good, man. Yeah. I'm going to get here at 1.30 and leave what? That cut disqualifies him. Like, he can't even change his mind. Because that just shows you the effort isn't going to be there, which is fine. I don't think he wants to change his mind.
1:14.6	Great. So, Posada, from now on, on WFN, never bring up his name. Yeah. But maybe we should bring up this guy's name. What about you, Francisco Cervelli? Would you like to get a chance to manage a major league baseball?
1:30.9	Probably.
1:31.7	I've just turned 40 years old.
1:33.8	No way.
1:34.5	A young man.
1:35.1	Yeah, a week ago.
1:37.3	So I think I got 10 years to do that.
1:42.1	Why not?
1:43.1	You know what you basically said?
1:44.3	I got the 10-year cycle that Kassman will give me.
1:46.4	Right. I think Francisco Cervelli's the guy to keep an eye on. He definitely wants to. He wants it. And, like, he is a Yankee. He's a former catcher. He did a really good job because what I heard about what he did is he didn't just manage a bunch of Italian-Americans. he went to Italy and was with the program for like six months.
2:03.3	Oh, really?
