You're locked in to Sports Desk, let's get into it.
Giancarlo Stanton is in trouble. The Yankees slugger sat out Saturday against Houston with right calf tightness, and manager Aaron Boone is leaving the door wide open on an injured list stint. New York can ill afford to lose that bat with the season already carrying weight.
Meanwhile in the NHL postseason, Carolina is rolling. The Hurricanes swept Ottawa four games to none, with Sebastian Aho burying two goals and Frederik Andersen turning aside twenty five shots in a four to two win Saturday. Carolina becomes the first team in the league to punch through to the second round, and they look dangerous doing it.
And post-draft buzz is still humming across the NFL. The Cardinals, the Rams, the Raiders — everybody's getting graded and second-guessed after a wild draft weekend. Jeremiyah Love's fit in the desert is drawing real scrutiny, and the conversation around the NFC East pecking order has only gotten louder now that the Eagles' draft class is under the microscope.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
