On Tuesday’s Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett is joined by his regular guests, Jim Duquette, MLB Network Radio, John Canzano from JohnCanzano.com and Puck plays an edited version of this weeks Sports Pit with Steve Sandmeyer and Matt “Stretch” Johnson.

Puck opens up Tuesday with praise for Luis Castillo in the opener against the Chicago White Sox. Puck also talks about the 3-for-4 night from Ben Williamson.

Jim Duquette, MLB Network Radio drops by to chat with Puck about the play of the Mariners and discusses being able to evaluate today’s players with your eyes and not just rely on statistics. Jim praises the play of Andres Munoz and calls him one of the most underrated players in the game. How did Juan Soto’s return to Yankee Stadium go? Jim had a front row seat as he works for the New York Mets broadcast team. Jim also notes what a great weekend it was for baseball with the “rivalry weekend” and a number of division races have great rivalries associated wit them and it has a chance to be great summer for baseball. Puck and Jim wrap up discusses Pete Rose and whether or not he’ll get into the Hall of Fame and what is wrong with the L.A. Dodgers and their development of starting pitchers.

John Canzano, JohnCanzano.com, chats with Puck about whether or not he feels Pete Rose should get in. John is a voter for the Hall of Fame. Mediation is underway between the Pac-12 and the Mountain West. How long will it last and what does it mean for UNLV in terms of joining the conference? John discusses that the conference needs expansion to be resolved by July 1, 2025. The White House is exploring setting up a commission to address college football. Does John think that’s a good idea? Puck and John discuss a follow up story that John did on a very impressive 17 year old umpire from Oregon. It’s a must listen. John finishes with that he doesn’t think Blazer fans should close the door on Phil Knight buying the team.

Puck then plays an edited version of this weeks Sports Pit with Steve Sandmeyer and Matt “Stretch” Johnson. Puck, Sandy and Stretch talk about their favorite batting stance as kids and that led Sandy to tell a great all-time classic story about his time as a clubhouse attendant at the Kingdome and an encounter with George Brett. They also laughed as Sandy talked about Reggie Jackson and what a jerk he was to his buddy who was also a “clubby” at the same time as Sandy.

Puck wraps up the show with, “Hey, What the Puck!?” Angel Reese is not in the same stratosphere as Caitlyn Clark.
