C-Lo is in for Jerry and starts with audio from Steve Cohen talking about his conversation with Max Scherzer and not going all in on free agents next season. Gio does not like that Cohen is not going to do everything they can to win next year and it reminds him of the Wilpons. It sounds like the Mets are not going to make a legitimate offer for Ohtani. The Yankees beat the Rays last night behind a Giancarlo Stanton 3-run HR. Domingo German voluntarily entered an alcohol rehab program. The Jets play the Browns tonight in the Hall of Fame game and we’ll see a lot of Zach Wilson. 

Stugotz from the Dan Le Batard Show is in for Boomer today so it’s Gio & Stugotz this morning. Gio told a story about Chris Russo and ‘the family’, a group of guys at WFAN who would bet on games with Russo. Gio was only making $31K at the time and lost $1100 and 6 months later Russo came looking for it.
