    Yankee offense LIMP in another extra-inning loss

    The Yankees failed to sweep the Braves as their lifeless lineup once again could not generate runs. Chris McMonigle sounds off on the same old story, from a brilliant Cam Schlittler outing going to waste, to the lack of hope that this offense can break out without Aaron Judge and Cody Bellinger. Plus, George Lombard Jr. continues to impress in his first taste of the majors, but is that enough to get this stacked pitching staff enough run support? EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS 4:14 - A deep dive into how the lack of run support is completely exhausting relievers like Bednar, Blackburn, and Cruz by forcing them into constant high-leverage, one-run games. 16:03 - Why Jazz Chisholm has become the face of the offensive issues, struggling heavily and bordering on becoming a platoon player. 19:55 - Recapping Max Fried's excellent start and praising rookie George Lombard's incredibly clean, Carlos Correa-esque defense. 35:50 - A passionate rant on Caballero’s infuriating 10th-inning at-bat, which Chris declared the worst he's ever seen. 42:27 - Gerrit Cole looks brilliant, Chris Sale gets tossed pregame for dugout chirping, and Austin Wells continues his hot 15-game stretch. 48:04 - Debating Trent Grisham's place at the top of the order against righties, and why it might be too early to put leadoff pressure on Lombard. 52:01 - Cam Schlittler dominates, but the offense wastes solid contact and falls to Atlanta in the series finale. 58:00 - Why catching the Rays is slipping away and why avoiding a 3-game Wild Card series at Fenway Park is the team's new main priority. 1:01:42 - Caballero rightfully earns the "Shame" for his offensive disaster, while Max Fried takes home the "Shill" for his clutch Friday start.

    C-Mac RIPS Yankees trade deadline and George Lombard Jr. gets the call!

    Chris McMonigle is not holding back on the Yankees and Brian Cashman's performance at the trade deadline, ripping the GM for only adding Luis Garcia Jr. and Heliot Ramos while AL East rivals like the Red Sox and Rays both beefed up at catcher, New York's biggest need. C-Mac sounds off on what he considers to be Cashman's worst deadline ever, how the Yankees will configure their roster now that Ramos and Garcia are in the fold, and try to make sense of how the Yanks did not add a catcher. News also broke during recording that the Yankees are calling up top prospect George Lombard Jr. and sending down Anthony Volpe and Jasson Dominguez. Plus, reactions to a crushing loss against the Cardinals, the bullpen implosion, and Garcia's instant impact. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS 9:48 - Chris goes off on what he calls Brian Cashman's worst trade deadline, perhaps ever. He expresses utter disbelief that the team didn't acquire a starting-caliber catcher or an extra relief pitcher. 20:59 - BREAKING NEWS: George Lombard Promoted! Reacting live to a report from Jack Curry, McMonigle breaks the news that prospect George Lombard is being called up to the majors immediately. 31:51 - Official word comes down that Anthony Volpe and Jasson Dominguez are being optioned to Triple-A. Chris analyzes what this means for the infield and theorizes that Lombard will take over as the everyday shortstop. 41:22 - Was the front office's passive trade deadline dictated by Aaron Judge's injury status?. McMonigle theorizes that the Yankees' lack of aggression signifies they just want to survive until October, rather than overextend themselves for a World Series push now. 54:14 - Chris hands out a "D-" grade for the Yankees' trade deadline moves. Despite his deep frustration, he reminds fans that the season isn't over and the team is still positioned for a playoff run.

    Yankees salvage series, but this offense is ROUGH

    Chris McMonigle dives into a frustrating series against the Dodgers, breaking down the atrocious state of the Yankees' offense, expressing major concerns over a disappointing injury update on Aaron Judge and the severe struggles of Cody Bellinger, Jazz Chisholm, and Anthony Volpe.

EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS 00:40 - The Elephant in the Room: The Yankees' offense is absolutely awful right now. 3:00 - A deep dive into the offensive black hole at the bottom of the lineup.

He also defends Trent Grisham getting thrown out at the plate, attributing it to a bad base-running read rather than a lack of hustle. 43:00 - Game 3 Bullpen Heroics: A breakdown of the much-needed series finale victory, but Chris had to vent about a frustrating fifth-inning bases-loaded jam. 59:00 - Trade Deadline Wishlist: Chris demands that Brian Cashman prioritize a new shortstop. He also tosses out bold trade targets to save the season, including Rafael Devers, Luis Arraez, and Mason Miller. 1:09:20 - Shill or Shame: Reliever David Bednar earns the "Shill" for his shutdown performance out of the bullpen, while the recently demoted Jake Bird gets handed the "Shame." 1:14:00 - Silver Linings in the Standings: Despite the offensive woes and losing the series, Chris notes that the Yankees actually gained a game and a half on the slumping Tampa Bay Rays, keeping their division title hopes very much alive.
