Summary

Today’s word of the day is ‘bags’ as in under the eyes as in money bags as in the East Coasters trying to watch the NL West. It is a gauntlet. 4 teams are over .500 right now. The Padres haven’t lost at home. The Dodgers are losing games. The Giants are surprising. The Diamondbacks are hot. The Rockies are… existing. (8:40) The Chicago Cubs got some bad, bad news. Justin Steele is done for the season. Counsell thought it was short-term and it’s not. Now what do the Cubs do? (14:05) Mike Trout got into a little situation with a fan on a play for a fly ball right on the edge of the stands. Interference or not? Doesn’t matter because Trout made the best of it and acknowledge he didn’t know the rules and then met with the fan after the game! (18:45) What just went down between Tennessee and Nico Iamaleava is exactly what the NCAA has created. A world of a mess. A QB wants more money. The school says no. And now he’s out of a job (?) and Tennessee is out of a QB. (35:50) Review: Novocaine. (38:30) Rory McIlroy finally got his green jacket. Almost was the same story as always with him, but he did it. (43:41) The NBA Play-in and Playoffs are here! A wild Sunday saw a bunch of teams change positions. The Warriors down to the play-in. Western Conference was wild. (50:00) NPPOD.
