b"We're starting to see a change in the stratosphere as the sports world is showing some life coming out of its dead zone. I'm here to relay all of the good, bad and ugly of the past few days as the most recent edition is available for your edification. On deck: (2:39) For the first time all year, the Tampa Bay Rays do not have sole possession of first place as the Baltimore Orioles are percentage points ahead of them in the AL East. That sets up a gargantuan showdown between the two teams this weekend starting tonight in a four game series. The Reds and Marlins have hit the skids after the break, trying to get back some of their mojo from earlier in the month. What has happened to the Yankees? They've been a huge disappointment losing two of three to Colorado, then getting swept by Anaheim this week. You know I'll dissect all that's going on in the Bronx as they try to keep their heads above water in this AL playoff chase. I'll see what else is happening in MLB as we're just 12 days away from the trade deadline. (20:08) The final golf major of 2023 has commenced as The Open out in Northern England. The big story is how will Rory McIlroy perform as he's on the verge on a nine year drought between major wins. How will he fare here on a course where he won the Open back in 2014? (28:49 ) A couple of NFL training camps have opened up as we get ready to reintroduce football to our consciousness. The Giants and Saquon Barkley are apart when it comes to a long term contract. How will this take into shape as we get deeper into summer? DeAndre Hopkins found a new home in Tennessee. Is he a good fit with the Titans? Cowboys All-Pro Zach Martin is holding out due to a contract issue. And the Steelers re-signed LB Alex Highsmith to a multi-year deal. (40:21) Free agent James Harden is interested in becoming an LA Clipper. Are the Clippers interested in him? Reigning MVP Joel Embiid recently stated that he wants to win a championship in Philadelphia or somewhere else. Is this a case of reading between the lines based on what he said? Or is it much ado about nothing? (46:12) Lionel Messi gets introduced to the MLS and the American sports landscape as he's scheduled to play in his first game tomorrow. Will he and his play have a lasting impact on the sport? The league? If not, what will it take to do so?
