## Resource

The Yankees’ struggling offense has reached the point where Evan Roberts believes Brian Cashman must call up George Lombard Jr. immediately. Evan argues that Jose Caballero and Anthony Volpe have already shown what they are, while Lombard could provide the jolt the lineup desperately needs. Tiki Barber urges caution about throwing a young prospect into a pennant race, and Shaun Morash wonders whether the Yankees are saving Lombard for after the trade deadline. The conversation shifts to a lost Mets season, Keith Hernandez and Gary Cohen sounding increasingly fed up, and even Donald Trump taking a shot at the team. Evan, Tiki and Shaun also debate the excitement surrounding John Harbaugh and the Giants, why his résumé gives his message credibility, and whether universal optimism should make Giants fans nervous.
