BT & Sal kick off the segment with a mix of disgust and fascination over football player Cam Skattebo's latest viral stunt: chugging an energy drink from his cleat (a "Shoey"). Then, they dive into a fiery hypothetical: an Athletic-proposed trade for Tigers ace Tarik Skubal involving a Yankees package of Spencer Jones, Will Warren, and two pitching prospects. The hosts debate whether this offer is deliberately undervaluing Skubal compared to the Mets' reported trade pieces, reigniting the argument over the true quality of the Yankees' farm system.

The conversation shifts to the upcoming Japanese posting window, with Sal confidently predicting the Mets and Yankees will each land a star, while Tierney is skeptical, fearing the Dodgers will collect everyone. They discuss the worrying scouting report on star hitter Munetaka Murakami and his inability to hit fastballs over 93 MPH. The segment wraps up by venting about high NBA ticket prices and the outrage fans feel when high-priced stars like Giannis sit out.
