Boomer is out today so Jerry is filling in. Max Scherzer and the Mets beat the Padres. Both Gio and Jerry said this does not mean Scherzer is back. He was better, but he labored through a lot of hitters and didn’t have a knock out pitch. Some people liked the dramatic music and the split screen on SNY concerning the pitch clock, and some people did not. Gio and Jerry didn’t care for it.

They also want Francisco Alvarez getting more playing time since they brought him up. C-Lo is in for Jerry and is here for his first update and starts with audio from the Mets beating the Padres. Max Scherzer said he took a step in the right direction and is ‘not broken’. The Guardians beat the Yankees and Aaron Boone talked about a blown chance they had early in the game. The Tampa Rays won again, their 10th straight to start the season. The Sabres beat the Rangers and the Islanders lost to the Capitals and are no longer in control of their playoff destiny.

He is the one that recruited OBJ to Baltimore and he assured him he would be the QB throwing him the ball. That according to a report from Ian Rapoport.
