Carlin prepares you for the Jets season kicking off this Sunday against the Bills on 98.7 ESPN. It all comes back to Sam Darnold. He needs to prove himself. Plus, Carlin is disgusted with Gary Sanchez and the Yankees.

A disastrous 6th inning -- had us looking for somewhere to turn for answers. Maybe we found them. Meanwhile, the Yankees scored runs -- but the "high leverage" relievers looked like Jay Whitasick in his heyday. We hear from Aaron Boone on his team's confidence (or lack thereof,) and what REALLY killed them Monday night. Also, Adam Ottavino searches for answers himself. Finally, what exactly is the problem with Gary Sanchez at the plate? Aaron Boone thinks he knows, and Chris doesn't think we'll see Sanchez in pinstripes for much longer.

As bad as it gets. The Yankees did everything they could to lose the game -- and we take you through everything that went wrong and the reaction to it. plus, Aaron Boone's postgame tone was far from the right one. Mistakes from bench players in areas they specialize in they specialize can't be made. Plus, an under the radar injury concern. While this is a crucial series in Baltimore, and pressure applied to Deivi Garcia.

That was over quick. Jordan Montgomery didn't get out of the 1st inning, and Mike Brosseau got his revenge. Best part of the game was Aaron Boone's pregame press conference, and we give you a lot of it. Yankees still can't hit, and the Sanchez problem isn't going away. BREAKING NEWS: Umpires are not very good. We see it again. Finally, some good injury news that will make a major impact as soon as this weekend.

The storyline should've been the Yankees winning -- but it was all the drama of the 9th inning. Aroldis Chapman throwing up & in to 3 straight hitters, and the rays got VERY ticked off about it. The postgame reaction fanned the flames, including from Rays' Manager Kevin Cash. Hear from him, Aaron Boone, Mike Brosseau, DJ LeMahieu, and Zack Britton. Oh yeah -- Masahiro Tanaka was excellent, DJ homered twice -- but what does this all mean going into the last regular season meeting Wednesday? Did Chapman just put his teammates in harm's way?

Gerrit Cole didn't dominate, and in fact, wasn't very good. Why? We hear from Aaron Boone and Cole, and put Boone's comments through the YANKEE TRANSLATOR. Where has the offense gone? Alarming numbers in the clutch, particularly against Tampa. Plus, Brian Cashman on the deadline passing without a move, and if that was the right thing for the Yankees.

Sometimes, bizarre things happen and come together to lead a team back from struggles. Sometimes, just one bounce. But will the Yankees salvaging the weekend lead to a winning streak? Did Gary Sanchez take himself off the schnide for good? Rays coming in, and Gerrit Cole on the mound. Have the Yankees gotten what they paid for so far? Finally, as the deadline approaches at 4pm, where are the Yankees most likely to turn?

Larry Hardesty fills in for Chris Carlin and talks about the Yankees injuries piling up with Aaron Judge back on the IL, plus, special guest Rich Cimini tells us what to expect from the Jets this season.

With no game, a look ahead with some news. Aaron judge's prognosis, along with encouraging news on DJ LeMahieu. Who could carry the team out of the not-so-usual suspects? Mark Teixeira opines on Thursday's "Michael Kay Show," and we discuss. One pitcher we likely won't see this weekend, and one we definitely won't. 5 games with the Mets in 2 days. Ooof.
