| 0:07.0 | The Exposure. That's the nothing personal word of the day for Thursday, January 29th, |
| 0:44.5 | 2006. Brian Cashman introduced the greatest free agent signing the Yankees have had in the last 60 days. |
| 0:56.4 | They brought back Cody Bellinger and had a video call. |
| 1:02.2 | And Brian Cashman had some interesting quotes about his view of the team. |
