| 0:00.0 | We've got a busy day. |
| 0:01.6 | A lot going on on this Friday, Friday the 13th. |
| 0:04.7 | Not only are their drones flying over the state of New Jersey, and no one tells us why, |
| 0:09.2 | but the New York Yankees made a blockbuster trade earlier today. |
| 0:12.1 | Just tuning in, they acquired Devin Williams, the elite closer from the Milwaukee Brewers for Nestor Cortez and the immortal Caleb Durbin. |
| 0:18.7 | But they've also seen one of the apples of their eye, Kyle Tucker, |

| 1:05.1 | Yeah, but I also feel like maybe this is an opportunity for Brian Cashman and the Yankees to change their identity, right? |
| 1:15.4 | And it's going to be slow, obviously, because Aaron Judge is still here and John Carlo Stanton is still here. |
| 1:20.5 | There's still guys that want to hit home runs and go yard. |
