Giants See Untapped Potential in J.J. McCarthy

from Evan & Tiki

Aaron Boone is trusting Gerrit Cole in Game 1, even though Evan Roberts argues the numbers clearly point to Carlos Rodon as the better matchup against Tampa Bay. Tiki Barber understands the gamble, saying Cole’s mentality, leadership and postseason résumé matter, but the decision could invite major criticism if the Yankees fall behind early. The conversation also shifts to the Giants’ bet on J.J. McCarthy and whether Matt Nagy and John Harbaugh can unlock a quarterback who never received a full opportunity in Minnesota. Plus, the guys revisit Henrik Lundqvist and Cam Talbot before debating the fallout from old social media posts surfacing after Braden Bell landed the Trail Blazers’ play-by-play job.
