Good morning, everyone, and welcome to the Early Edge.

0:12.4

My name is the counselor of cash otherwise known as Cia Najat.

0:15.5

And this show is brought to you by BetMGM, the sports book born in Vegas.

0:19.7

We already got the chat really going off. There's a special guest on the show. It seems like everybody is super happy about that. But let's see if we're super happy about our recap screen. I will say our MLB live stream yesterday did quite well. We were sweating that Blue Jays game for sure, but Sniper and Amags really came through. A lot of those

0:37.7

strikeout props came through. We come through on the recap screen from Wednesday's show,

0:42.0

3-1. Calvin Wetzel, prop stars, A-Mags all record the win and we lose our sports line pick.

0:48.1

Good, good pitching performance from Logan Webb, but couldn't record the win, ultimately.

0:52.0

Very easily could have gone 4-0 here, but we will absolutely take 3 in 1. Ladies and gentlemen, we are Mike Tolbert days away from an NFL regular season kickoff. And I use Mike Tolbert because we've got a Chargers super fan in the house. Ladies and gentlemen, yeah, we've got Larry Hartstein. That's great. We got Ben on the ones and twos. That's great. We got sniper. Try and diagnose what to play here on two or three games of this MLB slate. More on that in a second. We've also got Jeff Feinberg. Jeff, my friend, we've got football today. Your charges are playing. Hall of Fame inductions on Saturday, which I believe you're going to. You're on this show. Everything is clicking right now. How are you doing, buddy? I am doing well, thrilled to be invited and to join you guys here. That is true. Football starts tonight. That feels like a blur. But I am. I am headed to Canton, Ohio this weekend, going to make the four-and-a-half- hour drive to see Antonio Gates get enshrined.

1:48.0

And, you know, I went when LaDanian got enshrined a few years ago.

1:51.5

And it was great.

1:53.0

You know, just so many of the players just loiting around, it felt like an NFL Comic-Con.

1:57.7

So I'm excited to go back.

1:59.5

That's really cool.

2:00.4

I actually want to go to one of those enshriment ceremonies as well. Larry I'm excited to go back. That's really cool. I actually want to go to one of those

2:01.8

enshriment ceremonies as well. Larry, you got to be excited for a couple of things. One, Jeff is on the show. Two, we've got football. And I know you have a football pick for the Hall of Fame game, which I think is incredible. But again, 35 days away from an actual NFL kickoff. How excited are you? I can't wait. And I thought Jeff would be going down tonight to see Trey Lance in action,

2:20.7

who's going to make his case, hopefully, to be the number two backup quarterback.

2:25.9

But yeah, it's great to have Jeff on.

2:27.5

I'm a big fan of his work at Circles Off and other outlets.

2:32.2

And, yeah, I love the guy.

2:37.9

Yeah, Trey Lance. Yeah, I can't wait to hear your pick today, Larry, because I know Trey Lance is sort of going to be involved in that analysis,

2:42.1

but that feels like a huge swing and miss. But there's still time for Trey Lance. Maybe we'll get

2:46.6

Jeff's thoughts on him as well. Sniper, interesting MLB slate, and by interesting, I mean, kind of underwhelming because we have three games. And honestly, I came to the show thinking, okay, we have three games, but we got an afternoon game that we can bet on, which will be really great. I kind of like the raise. However, talk to me about possible rainout situations. Yeah, I just looked right before we came on in the Bronx, and it looks like
