Grace is back with another week of baseball! She gets into the good week the Mets just had. She also dives into the injury updates for the Mets, from the returns, and near-returns to the still hurt players and the players hurt worse than we thought. SHe also discusses the Phillies’ major injury blow this week.

Next, two separate teams in two separate cities and sports made equally questionable decisions in the midst of Pride Month. First, the PWHL draft just happened, and Minnesota drafted a player whose online activity shows her to be a racist/homophobic/transphobic conspiracy theorist (and that might not even be the team’s biggest problem currently). Also, the Texas Rangers have already leaned into their barely-veiled homophobia by being the only team in the league without a Pride Night. But their header change two days into Pride Month feels antagonistic given what we know about them.

Finally, Grace gives another Pride themed double movie minute. Two separate satirical teen films, one older, one current. They work well together in style and substance, and make for a fun double (or, with the addition of a film from last year, triple) feature.
