What are the potential solutions for Jeff Hoffman?
All right, welcome back to Blair and Barker. Well, we got to do a little 360 here. Pete Walker has sent along his regrets, but... They've had a meeting rescheduled. There it is. They don't get all worked up. That may not mean anything. It may just be an advanced meeting.
Well, yeah, it's the little of that and figure out where people are going.
Yeah, if you mention the news, if you miss the news a little earlier, Yariel Rodriguez has been – boy, oh, boy, Jeff. Yariel Rodriguez has been DFA'd. Why is that such a hard thing to say? I don't know. That's because you love him so much. Yariel Rodriguez has been DFA'd and – Tommy Nance has been there.
There you go. Oh, there's another guy. Maybe they pitch him more than Jeff. I actually thought about that. Because he's got good span.
He can get a lot about that. Just I read it.
Yeah.
Anyhow. So there you go. 707 is the first pitch against Christopher Sanchez and the Phillies. There it is. Bring in David Sampson. Hosted nothing personal with David Sampson.
How many voices are influencing Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s hitting?
I can say that right. There it is. There he is. Look at him. I thought you'd be courtside, man. Me too.
No, I'm not going tonight. It is, no, I'm just not going. I'm going to watch, though.
Yes.
I promise you that. And this is not a protest. This is not political. It is 30% lack of access to tickets, 60% lack of wanting to go through what we'll have to go through to get into the garden, and then 10% general despondency outside of sports. Yes.
Okay, well, that, yeah, it's, look, we all know why the security's in place with the president going there. But, man, it was just seeing the scenes in that last series and seeing the watch parties and everything in New York. Like, I mean, I got, I went to see, I went to see the Knicks in my honeymoon. And I remember the scalper that sold, yeah, the scalper that sold us tickets said, these are great seats. These are great seats.
Hold on. That's what I got. He said, no, let me finish.
He said, these are great seats. They're right behind Hubie. Poor wife.
That's how long ago it is. That's what you did on your honeymoon. I know, baby. You took your wife to see a Knicks game?
Will Aaron Judge's injury affect the Yankees' trade deadline strategy?
I did. Boy, you are a Casanova.
No. We went to New York. We spent an entire week in New York. And one of the things I want to do, because I'd never seen an NBA exhibition game, because we were living in Winnipeg at the time I wanted to see an NBA game. So there you go. So I've always kind of had this little. She was thrilled. She loved it. No, she. Yeah. Are you kidding me? Yeah. She thought it was great. Anyhow. Yeah. Basketball is better when the gardens happen to happen in place, man.
I smell a sweep. It's great for the NBA. I smell a sweep, David. So listen, can we talk about this? Because this is going to bother me all day. If the Knicks sweep, they will be known with the Warriors of 17 as the greatest postseason team of all time, having tied their record of 15 straight wins in the postseason. In addition, coached by the same guy, Mike Brown. But you're telling me Magic, Bird, Kareem, Shaq, Larry Bird. How about Kawhi Leonard on the Raptors for crying out loud? Whatever. Julius Irving.
What should the Tigers do with Tarik Skubal after his rehab stint?
You're telling me that this Knicks team will be the greatest team ever? I just can't wrap my arms around that, which is why don't tell anyone. I'm only saying this to you guys and all of the audience listening. I don't want it to be a sweep. I just don't. I smell it.
It's happening. You got a different sense. I like sweeps. I do, too. I like sweeps. I like historical sweeps. Put the hammer down. Put the hammer down. That's right. Anyhow. Now it's your presence with authority.
Enough. Yeah. I'm willing to tell you that Wemba Nyama will win more rings in his career than Brunson.
Oh, that's fair.
Not this year. And this may not be the year, but man, they are young. And if you believe in sort of the steps that you have to take, the way the Knicks have taken steps and it happened in the 80s and 90s, you have to get past a team. You have to get a year older. The Spurs have really shown to be they're young, you know, very young. And I just they're going to win titles.
