Sal is absolutely fuming over Juan Soto's All-Star Game snub, calling out Major League Baseball for what he perceives as a blatant disregard for the fans and a nonsensical decision, perhaps fueled by jealousy over Soto's contract. He argues that despite any minor statistical nitpicks, Soto's overall performance and star power demand his inclusion, especially given the All-Star Game's purpose to showcase the sport's best. Sal goes as far as to declare a personal boycott, emphasizing the absurdity of an All-Star Game without a player of Soto's caliber.

Boomer & Gio begin the morning talking about Garrett Wilson’s contract extension with the Jets. The Jets did not have to make this deal now but they could be glad down the road that they acted early. Gio says extending Wilson before Sauce Gardner was the right move. Wilson had a strong third season with the Jets and he earned an extension while Gardner did not.

Sal Licata delivered his fiery first-half grades for New York's baseball teams, giving the Mets a resounding 'A' for exceeding expectations and overcoming significant injuries, despite Juan Soto's struggles with runners in scoring position. In contrast, he handed the Yankees a 'B', citing maddening inconsistencies, questionable managerial decisions, defensive blunders (particularly from Anthony Volpe), and a general underperformance against pre-season expectations, even with Aaron Judge's stellar play. Licata emphasized that while both teams are in good spots heading into the All-Star break, the Yankees have more room for improvement, and he isn't shy about calling out their flaws.

BT and Sal delve into the recently released SNY documentary about former Mets captain David Wright, titled "The Right Way." Sal, having watched the nearly two-hour film, praises it as SNY's best documentary yet, highlighting the intimate look at Wright's humble beginnings, his blue-collar family, and his journey through the minor leagues to becoming a Mets icon. They discuss Wright's career highs, like the 2015 World Series appearance, and the heartbreaking lows, particularly the injuries that shortened his career, including a pivotal play that led to his back issues. Sal passionately argues that, excluding Tom Seaver, David Wright is undeniably the greatest Met of all time due to his character, leadership, and overall impact, despite some personal reservations during Wright's playing career due to unmet expectations.

BT and Sal engage in a spirited, sarcastic, and often fiery debate about two recent slides to home plate: Anthony Volpe's game-winning "swim move" for the Yankees, and Pete Alonso's less-heralded, but still effective, slide for the Mets. Sal, ever the contrarian, dismisses the excessive praise for Volpe's slide, arguing it's overblown due to his otherwise poor season and that his speed alone should have gotten him there. BT, however, defends Volpe's athleticism and the brilliance of his maneuver, sparking a heated back-and-forth as they dissect the mechanics and context of both slides, ultimately agreeing to disagree on which was truly superior and how much credit each player deserves.
