From 'Baseball Isn't Boring' (subscribe here https://link.chtbl.com/BaseballNotBoringPodcast): The Yankees haven't been shy this week in allocating their minor leaguers in order to get short-term very impactful players - such as Juan Soto and Alex Verdugo. So how good are these prospects? In his latest appearance on the podcast, Sam Dykstra offers insight into a couple of key pieces of the Yanks' recent deals, offering scouting reports on Drew Thorpe (now a Padre) and Richard Fitts (now a Red Sox).

HOUR 1 The Yankees are getting Juan Soto but he will be a free agent at the end of next season. Mets fans think they will sign him after his one year with the Yankees. This also means Steve Cohen will have to go all in on Yamamoto as he can’t lose out to the Yankees on this one. He can’t have the Yankees signing Soto and Yamamoto in the same offseason. Soto is only 25 years old and he played in every single game last season. C-Lo is in for Jerry and is here for his first update but first we talked about the Holiday party Audacy had in the cafeteria yesterday. C-Lo has audio from the Padres GM commenting on the Yankees deal saying they were ‘aggressive’. The Mets met with Yamamoto last week and the Yankees will meet with him Monday. Rob Saleh talked about why they’re going back to Zach Wilson on Sunday. In the final segment of the hour, Gio said there can’t be a single Yankees fan who thinks they gave up too much for Soto. If the Mets don’t get Yamamoto, Steve Cohen is going to look like the little brother. Boomer said it smells like stinky cheese in the break room where the party was yesterday. Even the Cashman haters have to love this deal. HOUR 2 Gio thinks Rob Saleh did a good job of deflecting for the first time this season. He said he likes Benigno and wouldn’t give any more details and he just moved on. At least he didn’t create any extra controversy in a week full of Jets controversy. C-Lo returns for an update and starts with all the details on the Juan Soto trade to the Yankees. The Padres had to cut salary and they did just that. Rob Saleh talked about going back to Zach Wilson. Boomer hopes Zach comes out with a chip on his shoulder and plays pissed off. Saleh also said he ‘loves Joe B’ and he’s moving on. In the final segment of the hour, Mike McCarthy had his appendix removed yesterday, but he’ll be coaching Sunday against the Eagles. Being an NFL Head Coach is not a healthy lifestyle, which is why Saleh runs the stairs at the stadium. A caller wants Saleh fired as a ‘Christmas miracle’, but the only thing that will get you is Nathaniel Hackett as Head Coach. HOUR 3 The over/under for tonight’s Patriots/Steelers game is 30.5, the lowest in the NFL in 30 years. A caller said Tommy DeVito took his shot with Dua Lipa and Gio is all for it. A caller said DeVito isn’t man enough for Dua Lipa since he lives at home. C-Lo returns for an update and talks about potential Yankees lineups with Juan Soto in the mix. A caller wonders if Soto will be able to grab his crotch while on the Yankees. Shaun Morash had some suggestions for John Sterling’s HR call for Soto. C-Lo has audio from Shannon Sharpe and Ochocinco’s podcast. Ocho thinks hotels charge for using the heat. A Jaguars employee in the finance department ripped them off for $22 million. Jerry Recco slipped during the Rutgers game and said ‘dick’ instead of ‘deck’. In the final segment of the hour, there’s a french coffee shop near the station that is always packed. Bars are now reserving seats at the bar. That’s not right. HOUR 4 The Yankees landed Juan Soto yesterday. Is Yomamoto next? Gio thinks the Yankees offer will get it done. Judge and Soto can be what Judge and Stanton were supposed to be. The Yankees better deliver after this trade, as we’ve seen too many local teams sign a big name and do nothing. A caller said Boomer’s rookie card is on Ebay for $10K. That card only goes for $600 so that person is crazy. C-Lo returns for his final update and starts with the Juan Soto deal for the Yankees. Boomer wonders if Aaron Judge and Gerrit Cole were involved with the dealings. Yanks will meet with Yamamoto on Monday. The Moment of The Day involves Joe Benigno and ‘new fangled smartphones’. Gio wonders why we lose the hair on our heads but then grow hair in all odd places like our ears and shoulders. Adult porn star Dillion Harper corrects us on the pronunciation of her name on Twitter.

With Yankees getting Juan Soto, Steve Cohen must go all in on Yamamoto.
HOUR 1 Aaron Rodgers went on Pat McAfee yesterday and was angry about the leaks coming from the Jets. Boomer thinks it had to have come from a player or a player’s agent. With the Jets releasing Tim Boyle, could he be the leak? Gio has a scenario which he lays out where it’s coming from Tim Boyle’s agent. Boomer thinks there’s a documentary coming on Aaron Rodgers’ rehab. Rodgers seems to think the leak is inside the Jets building but it’s likely coming from an agent. Gio couldn’t believe that McAfee didn’t ask Rodgers about Saleh texting with Joe Benigno. Gio said if he continues to text with Joe he will be the dumbest Head Coach we’ve ever had in New York. C-Lo is in for Jerry and is here for his first update and starts with audio from Rodgers calling it a ‘chicken s**t’ report on Zach Wilson. He called it an assassination of Zach’s character. Brian Daboll announced Tommy DeVito will start again because he earned it. The Yankees traded for Alex Verdugo of the Red Sox. We also talked about the Mets and Yamamoto and Ohtani and Gio said they better make an offer. In the final segment of the hour, Jeff Saturday seems to be taking credit for changing the Colts culture while going 1-7. He also seemed to be taking shots at Frank Reich. He said he told the owner they were going to go 0-8. Boomer thinks it was a Jeff Saturday money grab spot. HOUR 2 The baseball offseason goes on and on forever. They hold non-stop meetings, Scott Boras tells dumb jokes and the reporters that cover MLB are still confused. Alex Verdugo was traded from the Red Sox to the Yankees and maybe Juan Soto will follow soon. Baseball seems to be the one sport where we talk and talk about where players might go and it takes forever. Rob Manfred has to tell Ohtani and his people that he can’t be telling teams not to talk about their negotiations. Manfred needs him to be a story and it won’t hurt him. Dave Roberts, the Manager of the Dodgers, mentioned meeting with Ohtani and people were furious he said something. C-Lo returns for an update and has audio from Aaron Rodgers who does not like the character assassination of Zach Wilson and all the leaks coming out of the Jets building. Gio thinks Zach is now a sympathetic figure. Brian Daboll announced Tommy DeVito will start this week against the Packers. Brian Cashman talked about Juan Soto and Shohei Ohtani. The Knicks have been eliminated from the in season tournament. In the final segment of the hour, we talked about Joe Benigno going on with Evan & Tiki yesterday saying even more stuff about communicating with Rob Saleh. Gio wonders if Saleh fell in love with Benigno as a friend. Reporters have to ask Saleh about it today. McAfee did not ask Rodgers about it. Boomer believes a documentary is being made about Rodgers’ rehab and comeback. HOUR 3 Boomer reads something from his statpack and Eddie has an incredible new drop for it. Eddie has returned from his 2 day absence due to illness. Gio is watching the new Squid Game on Netflix. Diana Russini had multiple sources for her story. There’s also no way the Jets cutting Tim Boyle and the Zach Wilson story are not linked together. We also talked about Dom DiSandro, the Eagles head of security that got thrown out of the game this past Sunday. Gio said a former Eagles player said he would die for Dom. Zach Wilson will probably be named the starter today. C-Lo returns for an update but first Gio talks about Dua Lipa breaking up with her older boyfriend. C-Lo has audio of Diana Russini talking about Zach’s relationship with the Jets. The Kelce brothers talked about being naked in the locker room in front of reporters. Brian Cashman and Aaron Boone talked about free agency and Yamamoto. Cashman seemed to take a jab at Steve Cohen. In the final segment of the hour, Gio said he feels like the Dolphins are always playing some scrub where he expects them to score 35 or more. It’s still hard to tell how they will fare against a strong opponent. Boomer said you could say the same about the Cowboys right now. They actually play each other on Christmas eve. It must be great to be on the Dolphins right now. HOUR 4 Rob Saleh will have another press conference today to name a starting quarterback and hopefully somebody asks him a question about texting with Joe Benigno. Gio remembers Woody Johnson yucking it up while wearing a diamond chain with the Dolphins owner before getting their ass kicked by them. Brian Daboll has won 2 straight with a rookie backup quarterback. Boomer said Aaron Rodgers ruined the Broncos and the Jets in back to back years. C-Lo is here for his final update and starts with audio of Aaron Rodgers talking about the leaks at the Jets and the ‘chicken s**t’ report about Zach Wilson. He called it an assassination of character. Tyrod Taylor reacted to Tommy DeVito getting the start again even though Tyrod is healthy. Aaron Boone talked about Giancarlo Stanton and how they expect him to have a Giancarlo Stanton type year, whatever that means. Dodgers Manager Dave Roberts said he didn’t feel like lying, which is why he revealed the Dodgers met with Ohtani. The Moment of The Day involves Boomer breaking out the stat pack and Eddie breaking out a tremendous new drop to nail him with. In the final segment of the show, Norman Lear passed away. He was known for All in The Family, The Jeffersons, Maude and many others. He was 101 years old. We talked about the TV Hall of Fame.

Boomer explains in this short clip.
It’s hard to tell how good the Dolphins are based on their schedule so far.

HOUR 1 We started with the report from the Athletic and Diana Russini saying the Jets wanted to start Zach Wilson at QB this week but he told them he’s reluctant to play because he doesn’t want to get hurt. Then Rob Saleh held a press conference saying that Zach said he wants the ball and wants to play this weekend. Saleh also said he’s not yet ready to make a decision on who will start at QB. Then Joe Benigno went on with Evan & Tiki and revealed ridiculous text messages he sent to Saleh that Saleh then responded to. Boomer wonders who is leaking this information to reporters. Boomer said it was unprofessional for Joe to read those texts on the air, but he also can’t believe Saleh gives Joe the information. Gio thinks there’s a pretty good chance Joe misinterpreted one of the texts. Jake Browning put on an incredible performance for the Bengals last night in an overtime win in Jacksonville. Jerry is here for his first update of the day and has all the audio from Rob Saleh talking about rumors that Zach Wilson didn’t want to play anymore this season. Jerry also has audio of Joe B on with Evan and Tiki talking about his text messages to Rob Saleh. Boomer is flabbergasted that Joe B is on the air misinterpreting text messages. In the final segment of the hour, we talked about Aaron Rodgers talking to Zach Wilson and telling him to play when the Jets ask him to play. Boomer said it’s embarrassing if you’re a player on the Jets and you hear your coach is texting with some ‘bozo’ about the team. HOUR 2 Gio said if he were Aaron Rodgers he would ask Rob Saleh if he’s going to text Joe Benigno if he throws 3 picks in a game? How can Rodgers trust him at this point? Gio compared Boomer & Frank Reich’s relationship to Benigno and Saleh. Gio said if you are making a pros and cons list for keeping Rob Saleh, what would you put in the pro column? Gio said he wouldn’t tell Joe anything in private because he can’t help telling other people. Boomer thinks this Benigno stuff is going to ‘do in’ Rob Saleh. Jerry is here for his update but first Joe Benigno called in to defend himself. He said he misinterpreted a text where he thought Rob Saleh didn’t like Zach Wilson. Jerry has audio from Saleh’s press conference about Zach yesterday. In the final segment of the hour, we talked about the decorations in the studio and Doug in East Islip sent a large hat with the B&G logo HOUR 3 Aaron Rodgers will be on with Pat McAfee today, so it never ends with the Jets being in the news. We took more calls reacting to Joe Benigno’s relationship with Rob Saleh. A caller is worried about the integrity of the radio station because of Joe B. Another caller thinks texting is easy to misinterpret. Tiki Barber couldn’t handle the ‘puss move’ by Zach Wilson and said, ‘cut his ass today’. Jerry is here for another update but first Peter Schwartz does not want to wear a wrestling singlet when he does Schwartzy the snowman. We talked about Jerry getting a full time play-by-play job and also talked about Kenny Albert doing a hockey game one night, a basketball game another and an NFL game after that. Shannon Sharpe and Ochocinco debated Zach Wilson not wanting to play QB again for the Jets. Was there a fart in the Lightning locker room during an interview? Yes, yes there was. In the final segment of the hour, Jake Browning put on a brilliant performance for the Bengals last night in their overtime win in Jacksonville. The Jets can ruin the Texans season if they can somehow beat them this Sunday. Greg Olsen is interested in the Carolina Panthers Head Coaching job. How he thinks he’s going to do that without ever coaching in any aspect is beyond me. There is no way the owner, David Tepper, would do that. HOUR 4 Wally Szczerbiak backed out of Boomer & Gio Live to challenge Al to a free throw shooting contest. Hofstra Head Basketball Coach Speedy Claxton calls in to challenge Al instead. Al had no idea he played in the NBA. Jerry is here for his final update of the day and starts with audio of Rob Saleh responding to the report that Zach Wilson doesn’t want to play anymore this season. Saleh said Zach ‘wants the ball’ but he hasn’t made a decision yet on who’s starting Sunday. The Bengals beat the Jags in OT behind the great QB play of Jake Browning. The Manningcast with Kay Adams as a guest reacted to the Bengals having wide receivers throwing passes. Tua was also on and played guitar as Peyton tried to sing. Bill Belichick was on with WEEI and was asked about Rex Ryan bad mouthing the ‘Patriot way’. The Moment of The Day involved Gio’s impression of Joe Benigno misinterpreting text messages. In the final segment of the hour, we talked about how things in the city that went away are back in full force: squeegee guys, fake purses.
