It seems to keep getting worse and I am really not that shocked, but at the same time I am. How? With the way the Yankees roster is constructed, they have both a high ceiling and low floor. That is how. In this episode we discuss that issue, the lineup problems, Cole's awful Sunday, Boone's bullpen management, Bader's surge, an unusual player comp, and a lot more.

The Yankees took two games from the Guardians in the Bronx this week, but it doesn't feel like it. At 17-15, this team is in last place. Their manager makes questionable decisions that have zero to do with winning and their general manager is blaming injuries again. Hey, Willie Calhoun is hitting? Kind of? We talk a little about the series, go over some hot Yankees, rant some more on the organization, and more.

This was ugly. The Knicks can't keep building brick mansions from three and expect to go far in the playoffs. They were open for a reason in that second half. Miami began packing the paint and helping off the strongside, and we saw the results: ugly. The Knicks also need Quickley to snap out of it, Randle & Brunson to be healthy, and they must make it an emphasis to attack Jimmy Butler in every single switch possible in Game 2.

The Knicks do it in five! Mitch Robinson was tremendous, RJ Barrett stays clutch, and Josh Hart was awesome once again. Much like the entire series, the Knicks won this game off their physicality. They were a brute force on the glass and did a great job of containing Donovan Mitchell. The Heat are next, but before we get to that series, I put an end to the insanity that is the Knick hater. Let people be happy and celebrate. All that and more in this ep!
