After almost a month-long hiatus, your favorite Yankees-centric podcast with a Monument Park pun title is back! Since the last time the podcast assembled, the Yankees went 23-5, which our expert analysts have determined is: good. Sure there have been some bumps in the road, but the Yankees have the best record in the league and feature two of the best players in the game leading the way. The vibes are positive in The Bronx.

In this edition of the podcast, Andrew and Kunj talked about Anthony Rizzo going on the IL with a fractured arm, Ben Rice getting the call to make his MLB debut, Gerrit Cole’s return to the rotation, and Cody Poteet admirably filling in after Clarke Schmidt went down with injury.

We also got our first view into how All-Star voting has gone in the early offing, with Aaron Judge and Juan Soto leading the field in the American League and easily looking like favorites to make the team and start. The Yankees also have some dark horse position player candidates to start the game or at least make the team, but none of those are guaranteed. The podcast then ends with a look at the coming week of games, our usual B-Ref WAR leaderboard check-in, and handing out of the Yankee and Manfred of the Week awards.
