Good morning, everyone.

0:10.8

Welcome to the Early Edge.

0:12.2

My name is Cienajat, otherwise known as the counselor of cash.

0:15.7

And we've got a great show for you today.

We're loaded with MLB, WNBA.

0:31.7

Let's check out the recap screen from yesterday. It's another winner. We've had a lot of winners over the last few weeks. We'll take five and three. Shout out to Tom Casale for hitting that

0:48.1

Pits with the Colorado avalanche money line. All right, we got an avalanche of personality

0:53.5

and picks on this show. So let's bring in the stars of the show, which of course include you, Rick and Mark and Japan, and Liddy and Jeff Stenberg and Steve Fulcherts. We got buckets. We got Calvin. And we've got our MLB dream team in Amags and Sniper Amags. I got to start with you. I wanted to start with buckets because the A. Hueneu-O-Swarres thing, but we'll get to that in a second. Your Yankees were down six to one, and it looked very much over for the season, for that game in particular. All of a sudden, it's six to three, and then six-to-six, and then Jazz- then jazz goes yard what was your mental state

1:28.1

toggling through yesterday while you were watching that game early it was not good see you

1:34.0

I mean my mental state was I was I was looking at door dash trying to just eat my feelings

1:39.3

and then you know lo and behold there's Aaron judge you know a lot of talk about the not coming up big in the playoffs and not hitting with men on base and all this.

1:49.2

Well, I think he truthfully, if you're saying that after yesterday, you just are not watching.

1:53.9

He dispelled those rumors last night.

1:56.3

I mean, not only the home run, but people are going to forget that he went back-to-back doubles with Trent Grisham, the inning before he hit the homer to kind of get the scoring going. And it was that double that I honestly looked at the TV and I said, okay, you know what? They may actually score some runs and come back a little bit here. Without that double, the inning before, I think it would have been a much different game. So props to Aaron Judge there. Yeah, he had a nice play in the field as well when that game, the Yankees were trailing. I think it was six to three at that point. That could have been a play he, like any outfielder could have potentially blundered and that game could have broken open there. Sniper, your reaction to yesterday, obviously Seattle was a team you were on. You had their over total. And they took, I mean, it was quick work at the Detroit Tigers.

2:36.5

Yeah, look, I mean, I've talked about this before.

2:39.0

I think that the Mariners' offense is very underrated because they play their home games in Team Mobile Park, which is like the pitcher version of Coors Field.

2:46.4

When you get them away, they can break, and we saw it last night.
