Hour 2: Yankees Pressure Mounts as Volpe Drama and Rays Stakes Collide

The Yankees face a pivotal game against Tampa Bay with Cody Bellinger at first base, Paul Goldschmidt on the bench, and their division hopes beginning to tighten. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber debate the lineup, the bullpen plan, and whether Brian Cashman deserves more credit for keeping the franchise competitive without delivering another championship.

The Anthony Volpe controversy takes center stage as Michael Kay walks back a report that Volpe resisted playing second base while Joel Sherman appears to support the original claim. The conversation also covers Francisco Lindor’s lack of hustle, excitement around the young Nets, the Jets’ definition of the promised land, and possible catcher moves before the trade deadline.
