Published: June 21, 2023, 11 a.m.

We start Rapid Fire by discussing which Notre Dame player we have higher expectations for this season: Tobias Merriweather or Jordan Botelho. Other topics include:\n* Crissy Froyd covers the SEC for SI. She did a ranking of SEC quarterbacks. No surprise...she has LSU\u2019s\xa0Jayden Daniels\xa0No. 1. But here\u2019s my question....she has Alabama\u2019s\xa0Jalen Milroe\xa0at No. 7...which presumes he will be the Alabama starter. What would it say for\xa0Tyler\xa0Buchner\xa0if that happens?\n* Fill-in the blank...It\u2019s BLANK THAT The Atlanta Braves designated\xa0Charlie Culberson\xa0for assignment on Sunday....just hours before Culberson\u2019s dad was scheduled to throw out the first pitch to his son on Father\u2019s Day.\n* Red Sox manager\xa0Alex Cora\xa0says there\u2019s too much Yankees-Red Sox on Sunday night baseball. \u201cThere\u2019s other teams out there and people want to see them.\u201d Do you Buy or Sell it?\n* Yesterday at the College World Series, the Wake Forest left fielder lost a fly ball in the sun...which was shining bright directly in his eyes. Can you guess what he had resting on the bill of his hat?\n* Do you have a team you\u2019re pulling for in the College World Series?\nShop for Irish Breakdown gear at our online store: https://store.irishbreakdown.com\nJoin the Irish Breakdown premium message board: https://boards.irishbreakdown.com\nStay locked into Irish Breakdown for all the latest news and analysis about Notre Dame: https://www.irishbreakdown.com\nSubscribe to the Irish Breakdown podcast on iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...\nLike and follow Irish Breakdown on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/irish...\nSign up for the FREE Irish Breakdown daily newsletter: https://www.subscribepage.com/irish-b....\nLearn more about your ad choices.
