Emoni Bates says he fell out of love w/ basketball before getting drafted by the Cleveland Cavaliers Jul 05, 2023

Show notes

Who will have a better season in 2023, Deshaun Watson or Amari Cooper?

Who will have more receiving yards, Amari Cooper or Calvin Ridley? Will Nick Chubb rush for more TDs than Nick Chubb? Let's play a round of... "Who Will Have More?" with your Cleveland Browns offensive unit.

If Deshaun Watson doesn't turn out to be the franchise quarterback we think he is, will it be more painful to Browns' fans than the 0-16 season? We bring out the die-hards to discuss.

Emmanuel Clase has blown his last three appearances for the Cleveland Guardians, who came from behind to beat the Braves last night. The rubber match is set for tonight, but how concerned does Terry Francona have to be about his All-Star closer?

The Cleveland Cavaliers signed some front court depth in free agency, opening the doors to a potential Jarrett Allen trade. Do you think the Cavs' All-Star center will be on its opening night roster in the fall, or is a trade coming?

Plus, Emoni Bates said something interesting over the weekend during his first Cavs media availability that raised some eye brows. We'll discuss that as well.

The Cleveland Guardians win 8-6; take 2 of three from the Chicago Cubs to win series Jul 03, 2023

Show notes

Are the Cleveland Cavaliers the big winners from the first days of NBA Free Agency?

The Cavs signed Max Strus and Georges Niang to give them some much needed shooting on the perimeter, along with point guard Ty Jerome & Damian Jones.

Strus and Niang are two knock down shooters which should help space the floor for the Cavs while Jerome is a wily veteran guard who knows how to control the pace of the game. Jones is a super athletic, rim running big who should thrive in the Cavs' pick and roll offense.

The Cleveland Guardians had two players named to the All-Star team over the weekend in Jose Ramirez and Emmanuel Clase, but just a few hours later, Clase went out and had the worst outing of his career. This is his second blown save in less than a week. He's been dominant at time this year, but the consistency hasn't been there.

Plus, former Cleveland Browns running back Greg Pruitt joins the show at 12:30 after we discuss the Browns ESPN roster rankings. Is #9 just right, too low, or too high for the upcoming season?

Why would the Cleveland Cavaliers run it back with the same roster? | Roster Construction w/ J. Fant Jun 29, 2023

Show notes

Don't look now, but the Cleveland Guardians lead the Central Division by 0.5 games over the Minnesota Twins. The Guardians beat the KC Royals 14-1 in large part to three home runs by Jose Ramirez, Bo Naylor, who hit his first career HR, and Josh Bell. Can the Cleveland Guardians now put distance between them and the Twins?

What do you believe to be the Cleveland Cavaliers' most significant issue? Is it Roster construction, Coaching, or youth and development? Is Caris Levert staying put? Reports say the Cavaliers are ready to offer $15-$18 million annually. This may be the Cavs' ONLY legit move, but is it right?

Are the Browns out on Deandre Hopkins? Albert Breer reports the Browns are unlikely to pursue the former All-Pro WR. Is this the right play by Andrew Berry?

That and more

How much of a jump do you expect from Martin Emerson Jr. and Jerome Ford in year two for the Browns? Jun 28, 2023

Show notes

Gavin Williams was lights out in his second start for the Cleveland Guardians, throwing 7 innings of 1 hit baseball.

The Guards pulled out a 2-1 win over the Kansas City Royals, but Williams earned a no decision.

Meanwhile, Terry Francona spent the game & the night in the hospital after not feeling well pregame. His medical issues before this are well documented. How big of a deal is this?

Brian Windhorst made a lot of noise yesterday when he said the Cleveland Cavaliers could make an "outlandish" move in the upcoming free agency period. The Cavs don't have much cap space to work with so an outlandish move would have to be pretty serious...wonder what it could be?

What would happen if you gave Kevin Stefanski, Deshaun Watson, Myles Garrett & other Cleveland athletes truth serum & asked them some questions? We'll try and simulate that in a new game.

Plus, Tyvis explains why players make their biggest strides from Year 1 to Year 2 and how that may impact the Browns' young secondary.
