Headlines and it’s time! MLB trade season is here! There’s no room for 6 pitchers, so you trade one of them… ok, who would that be? Can you trade Castillo with his big salary? Hello no, we aren’t trading Miller or Woo, so don’t even think about it. So, that leaves Gilbert & Kirby… What is JP Crawford’s trade value, if any? :30- The NBA Finals are set for Wednesday after the Spurs handled the Thunder in game 7 in the West on Saturday night. The Knicks have been waiting for their next opponent since sweeping the Cavs last Monday. If they continue playing like they have been, can anyone stop them? :45- The NY Mets come into town tonight and they have had a similar start to the M’s, but have been playing much better as of late, just like the M’s. They’ll be putting an opener on the mound to try and force the Mariners to make some changes, but the Mariners are hitting lefties better; something’s got to give…

The Mariners got another sweep and we hate to say it, but the piggyback worked again… There are still people who are hating on the piggyback, but why? It worked. The M’s gave up only 2 runs and got the win in extra innings without using their bullpen, so what’s to hate? Don’t worry haters, there’s hope on the horizon as the team will go to a 6-man rotation for the next two rotations. :30- Mariners Morning After Victor Robles walked it off for the M’s in the 10th, his first career walk-off. The Mariners are now 2 games above .500 for the first time this season and sit 2.5 games ahead of the A’s in the AL West after their 2nd sweep in a row. :45- Could today be the day AJ Brown gets traded to New England?

SPENCER HAWES Was that Spencer in the crowd in Game 3 or does he have a 7 ft tall doppelganger who is also a Spurs fan? When Wemby plays well, the Spurs win. When the Thunder go to the free throw line, they win. Which one will win out in game 7? Since game 1 the point differential in each game has been big; is one team rolling over when the game gets out of hand? Is Mitch Johnson feeling the pressure or holding it together through all of this? What about the Knicks? Can they take one of the Western powerhouses down in the finals? :30- ABC’s of the Mariners- and we end the week with the end of the alphabet! X is for Y is for Yen Z is for Zunino… :45- We wrap up the show and the week with Booze News!

The MLB Collective Bargaining Agreement is up after this season, which has a lot of people worried about an extended lockout in 2027. At the center of the negotiations, seems to be a salary cap, but this isn’t about money- it’s about the health of the product. Will the two sides be able to come together and recognize what’s actually best for the sport? :30- We’re down with O.P.Q! - We start with the AZ Cardinals and the Jacoby Brissett situation… AWKWARD! - In Minnesota, they’re saying it’s a QB competition, but is it really? - Is CJ Stroud trying to shed the bad juju from last year with a new haircut? :45- The Spurs forced a game 7 in the Western Conference Finals, but did OKC just rollover when things got out of hand to save energy for G7?
