Carl and Mike come back with some brief thoughts on Ace Bailey's situation as it has been reported he has yet to report to the Jazz, who was reportedly a team he did not want to be drafted by. As they discuss, they agree that the perception given from how Bailey's situation is coming off signals he may not be getting the best advice.

Carl and Mike come back with some brief Hawks talk and share thoughts on how Trae Young's leadership was on full display by being in attendance for Asa Newell's introductory press conference.

Carl and Mike open up the show with some Braves talk as they share their thoughts on their loss to the Mets on Thursday and agree that pending how their next series with the Phillies results, they may be willing to say it is time for a "fire sell"  as Braves' offense continues to struggle going 3-30 as a team last night and no players were able to draw a walk.
