AL MVP RACE: Cal Raleigh makes HISTORY! Aaron Judge cold August!; Updates on Bengals and Browns!
Today’s word of the day is ‘two’ as in Cal Raleigh as in Mickey Mantle as in history as in home run race as in MVP race. Raleigh became the first catcher in MLB history to hit 50 home runs. He became the second switch-hitter to do so. Is he the MVP? Is Aaron Judge the MVP? The race is HOT! Anthony Volpe has been bad all season. The Yankees have defended him all season. Until now. He’s been benched. Trey Hendrickson got a $14 million raise for this season from the Bengals. Why? Why would every player not hold out now? The NFLPA must love this! Teams must hate this! The Browns traded Kenny Pickett. Now the team is down to three. Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders are on the team. Review: Amy Bradley is Missing. The Orioles signed a new catcher in Samuel Basallo to a longterm deal before he has played a game. Why? How do the other core players feel? We have Adnan Virk with us! He’s an author now! Go buy his book! Cinephile: Interviews, Essays, and Tales from the Red Carpet! Ohio State has barred Dave Portnoy from the stadium. He works for Big Noon Kickoff now. Wow. Never seen anything like it. Fox and YouTube TV are in a dispute. Every year it’s some new network. This means you may not get college football this weekend. Or Fox News. Or the NFL. Woof! Are you paying attention to the US Open? The Field of Dreams game will be back next year. Phillies vs Twins. Let’s go!
