Shohei Ohtani could pitch before All-Star Break!? What has gone so wrong with the Phillies lately?

Today’s word of the day is ‘simulated’ as in simulated games as in Shohei Ohtani as in pitching as in Dodgers as in rehab assignments as in bullpen sessions. Let’s cover everything about injuries and returns to play. We start with the Dodgers and their trio of big name arms: Ohtani, Snell, Glasnow. Let’s break down the rest of the Dodgers pitchers now, and some other big names in the league. Sean Manaea and Giancarlo Stanton had rehab assignments last night. Review: Sinners. The Phillies are not doing great right now. Injuries happen. But the bullpen isn’t good. The team is struggling. NPPOD. So You Wanna Talk to Samson time! It’s the 2nd hour! Our first question is about estate planning and why teams sell for these purposes. Hmm. Someone asked me about the MLB Draft. Will it ever be reformed? Why are there separate drafts for international players? Will there ever just be one draft? Someone asked me about the biggest fight or argument I ever saw in a clubhouse. This should be good. What do you think about Skener Wieners? Huh!? Someone asked me about the new deal between MLB and Jomboy Media. How do you feel about it? Should MLB be doing this? Someone asked me about the ABS system and the impact it will have on umpires, players, fans, and the league!

Today’s word of the day is ‘rattled’ as in Oilers as in Stanley Cup as in fighting as in the Florida Panthers. That’s right. A Game 3 thrashing by the Panthers and it’s now a 2-1 series lead. The Oilers looked like the Panthers just got to their heads and they couldn’t do anything but fight and commit penalty after penalty. The Panthers are deep, scoring from most shifts. The Oilers rely so much on McDavid and Draisaitl that when they dont produce, they lose. The Red Sox called up top prospect Roman Anthony yesterday and he debuted vs the Rays. Not a great game, but that’s not the story. Review: Better Sister.What is happening with Giannis? Is he staying? Will he request a trade? What will happen!? The Pacers are already focused on the offseason. Well, the front office is. What will happen with Myles Turner? NPPOD. Ken Rosenthal joins us! Let’s talk some baseball!

Took 2 days after the House Settlement! The Club World Cup starts Saturday and we still have drama. How much fun! The MLS players are NOT happy about the pay. The Rays and Blue Jays are pushing the Yankees right now. Not the Red Sox, not the orioles. Red Sox starter Hunter Dobbins came out and said he’d never play for the Yankees ever. He said he’d retire!

Thunder roll in Game 2 behind another Shai 30-piece! One of the greatest tennis matches EVER!

Today’s word of the day is ‘answer’ as in response as in Thunder as in NBA Finals as in Pacers as in SGA. Oklahoma City rolled in Game 2 like everyone thought they would. Heartbreak in Game 1, but this team knows how to respond. How about the NBA putting the logo on the court digitally? Were you a fan of that? Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner played one of the best tennis matches you’ll ever see in the French Open final. Amazing tennis. What a comeback. Couldn’t believe my eyes. On the opposite side we have Coco Gauff and Aryna Sabalenka. Gauff won her second Grand Slam. Sabalenka won the first set and then was outplayed. After the match… sore loser times a million. Review: Pee Wee as Himself Corbin Burnes is done for the season. Another pitcher needing Tommy John. Here we go again. I have never seen what happened to Ryan Weathers happen before. Drilled in the head by a throw to 2nd in a warmup. And he stayed in the game after being flat on the field. What? Are the Marlins serious? NPPOD. Something major happened in the NCAA this past Friday, the house settlement. Schools can now directly pay college athletes. MAJOR! Let’s talk about what will happen next. Tanking. Lawsuits. Drama. Transfers. You name it. Craig Kimbrel was DFA’d by after one game. Woof. Why did the Braves do this? The Rays stadium may be fixed. More and more money being spent to fix The Trop. How fun. Michael Jordan is in some trouble. This time in NASCAR. Let’s talk about why he’s in trouble and what could happen. NBA expansion. Is it happening or not? Is Seattle and Vegas getting a team or not?

Knicks fire Tom Thibodeau after Eastern Conference Finals exit! Did the Knicks do the right thing!?

Today’s word of the day is ‘canned’ as in Thibs as in the Knicks as in James Dolan as in Leon Rose as in Jalen Brunson. After just 5 seasons Tom Thibodeau is out in New York. Eastern Conference Finals appearance? Who cares! Back-to-back 50-win seasons? Who cares! That’s what went down. What is happening with the Rays? Are they staying or leaving? Is the Trop being fixed or not? Is Florida giving the Rays money or not? Ron DeSantis is all over it! The Orioles are in a bad spot. The team is bad, but on a nice run right now. Disappointing team.

Today’s word of the day is ‘preview’ as in Dodgers as in Mets as in baseball as in playoffs. Let’s talk about the 4-game series in June and what it could say for both teams moving forward. Will we see a rematch of last season’s NLCS? I’d also like to talk about Lou Gehrig Day in MLB and what an awful disease ALS is. Fredi Gonzalez is back! Our guy! He’s back with the Braves! When will we know where MLB games where MLB games will be played next year? Is it ESPN? Is it Apple? Is it NBC? Is it somewhere else!? Review: Hacks Season 4. Let’s talk about ratings!

Pacers in NBA Finals for first time since 2000! The Good and the Bad of MLB in May!

Today’s word of the day is ‘52’ as in welcome to the new NPDS as in new graphics as in new music. The Pacers have eliminated the Knicks once again. Pascal Siakam won the MVP. Haliburton had another great game. And the Knicks will go home losers again. What happened in May in baseball? It’s time for the Good and the Bad! We start with the Detroit Tigers and the insane season they’re having! The Minnesota Twins had an incredible May to get them back into the season. Season was saved! The St. Louis Cardinals won the most games in all of baseball in May. Who!? Yes, the Cardinal Way was back… at least for a month! The Washington Nationals continue to surprise us all. How? Young players outperforming! That’s what a team like the Nationals needs. Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani are just so much better than everyone else. Review: Deaf President Now. Now let’s get into the bad in May. We start with Juan Soto. He had such a bad month. What’s wrong? Will it change? The Athletics are bad again. Damn. But not as bad as the Rockies. How can a team be as bad as the Rockies are? Let’s go over my predictions from May and the predictions for June. Corbin Burnes is hurt. Felt a pop in his elbow. This is bad bad bad news for the Diamondbacks! A Yankees fan was hit by a piece of concrete during a Dodgers game this past weekend. How can that happen? What happens next? Cooper Flagg reportedly made some huge money at Duke. New Balance paid up. Fanatics paid up. NIL money is something serious. NPPOD. Zion Williamson is in some trouble. He’s been accused of rape, abuse, mental abuse, you name it. It stems from a previous relationship he was in. What a bad career he’s had to this point. True or not here. Just a disappointment. Jackie Caglianone is getting called up. Big time prospect. Is this smart for the team’s future? Should they have waited? The online abuse needs to stop. Fans need to stop. We’ve reach a point where enough has to be enough. We cannot accept all the threats being sent player’s, or people’s, way. The Marlins DFA’d a player after a 3-error game. Woof. Let’s explain what happened here.

Haliburton and the Pacers are now just one win away from the NBA Finals. Haliburton made history with a 30/15/10/0 stat line. The Knicks just have no answer for that. Kendrick Perkins had some thoughts on why Anthony Edwards can’t be the face of the league. Well… We have another update on the Athletics of wherever they are from these days. A huge update. A concessionaire is going to invest in the club and the Athletics desperately need that money. Review: Survivor Season 48. Terry Bradshaw is not happy with the Steelers. Not happy with Aaron Rodgers.

MLB Memorial Day: Where your team is could be where they finish! Ohtani takes the mound… kina!

Today’s word of the day is ‘Memorial Day’ as in the holiday as in MLB as in standing as in playoffs. What? Well, most people think that what the standings look like now will be the standings when the season ends. Shohei Ohtani has taken to the mound for the first time in over 600 days. He threw live BP before the Mets game on Sunday at Citi Field and he’s starting to look good. Tarik Skubal might just do it again. He is a full blown ace and showed it. When will the Royals call up Jac Caglianone? He is crushing it in the minor leagues right now. Power bat. Record-setting. And the Royals could definitely use him! Review: The Last of Us Season 2. Caitlin Clark is hurt and this is big business. Uh oh. NPPOD. Let’s talk about the playoffs. Knicks have life for now. Timberwolves had life. And now the Hurricanes have some life.
