We celebrated Dad's birthday by giving our midseason grades for the Mets, Yanks, and our fantasy teams -- and discussing potential Mets and Yanks trade targets for the deadline, recapping the All-Star game and HR Derby... and unfortunately we had a tech hiccup that will lead to a longer episode next time.

The darkest days of New York Baseball in 2026 have arrived. Carlos Mendoza fired! Mets still can't hit! Yankees slumping without Judge and Stanton! Starting pitching is human! Once we survive all of the dreadful news, we share a few All-Star Game predictions and Yankees history fun facts... anything to think about the good times, right?

Glen Cove's own John "Zozo" Zozzaro -- whose rabid Mets fandom is known second only to his pizza -- visits the Donaldson Dugout to wait for trade news with our hosts... with 28 minutes left until the deadline.

Basketball took center stage in New York this week, which didn't leave much time for baseball... but we made it all work. We talk Judge's injury and its ripple effects, the sad State of the Mets, and some Knicks crossover/all-over sports fan nostalgia.
