Worries about Cole, Padres-Nationals rivalry, scandal in college baseball, and potential Home Run Derby participants

The New York Yankees faced off against their crosstown rival New York Mets in the 2024 Subway Series opener on Tuesday night. The Mets emerged victorious in the series opener, with Yankees ace Gerrit Cole giving up six earned runs on four home runs in four innings pitched. Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman examine Cole’s performance and discuss any concerns about his return to the mound. They also explore how the game at Citi Field reflects Mets owner Steve Cohen’s objectives for the team and the stadium.

In addition to dissecting the Subway Series game, the hosts delve into the peculiar feud between the San Diego Padres and Washington Nationals. They highlight Jurickson Profar’s impressive batting this season, Elly De La Cruz’s impressive hitting, and Hunter Greene’s struggles on the mound. The hosts also touch on the controversy surrounding Jim Schlossnagle’s decision to join a rival Texas team after the College Baseball World Series.

Jake and Jordan speculate on potential participants in the 2024 Home Run Derby before wrapping up the show with their segment “Why Haven’t You Homered Yet?”.
