Summary

Juan Soto's recent struggles with the Mets, including an 0-for-4 performance and boos from fans, have drawn concern, with David Ortiz defending him and questions arising about his unusual demeanor and lack of "flare." While Mets manager Carlos Mendoza vaguely referenced Soto's "lower half" being in a good position. In other sports news, the Thunder advanced to the NBA Finals after defeating the T-Wolves, and the Yankees swept the Angels with a 1-0 shutout, extending their winning streak. The Mets, however, lost to the White Sox. The discussion also touched upon Ben Stiller's unfamiliarity with Pat McAfee's "game" and Spike Eskin's frustration with the "tough guy act" in baseball retaliation. Finally, a segment covered Stefon Diggs being seen on a yacht with a "pink powder" believed to be a drug called "Tusi" reportedly involved, raising concerns about the Patriots' potential reaction.
