Suns, Nets, Harden & The Opening Of The NBA Playoffs. Kershaw Robs Us Of Perfection. Vlad Jr.'s Exploits. NHL's Wild Card Homestretch. Derek Carr's No-Trade Clause? Baker Disrespected?

The upcoming holiday weekend has plenty of sports on the docket. I'll share what lies ahead and look back as to what's transpired as I take you through the universe on all that's happening. On deck:

(2:48) The NBA Playoffs are on the horizon as we're just about through the play-in tournament. I'll dissect all that has taken place to this point, what to expect in the final play in games (i.e. ATL-CLE & NO-LAC) tomorrow night and peek in on the opening weekend playoff slate, with predictions of who'll win. As well as, some very intriguing storylines circling around the Phoenix Suns, the Brooklyn Nets and James Harden & the Sixers.

(39:09) Dodgers P Clayton Kershaw pitched an absolute gem vs. the Twins where he was perfect through seven innings. I'll explain why he robbed us of a potential historic moment? The exploits of Vladimir Guerrero Jr. (and why he should've won the MVP over Shohei Ohtani last year?), the slow start for Yankees P Gerrit Cole and how the Mets bounced back nicely after a typical brutal loss on Monday to win a series in Philadelphia.

(49:05) The NHL is getting into the homestretch of their regular season. The Avalanche and Panthers have played at a torrid clip recently and could be on a collision course to a Stanley Cup Final. There's still plenty of hockey to be played as I'll review which teams are still in the hunt for the wild card in each conference as we're just fifteen days away from the conclusion of the 82 game schedule.

(53:30) Derek Carr signs an extension with the Las Vegas Raiders, but a no-trade clause? Also, Baker Mayfield just can't shut up as he said recently on a podcast that he's been 'disrespected' in Cleveland. Where will he be shipped to? And when?

World Series Recap/Mets GM Search, Jets/Giants/NFL Week 8, College Football, NHL, NBA

We cap off an exciting October of sports and crown a baseball champion on this weeks edition of The JAYREELZ Podcast. The Boston Red Sox have won their fourth World Series title since 2004. I’ll delve into what it took for them to reach the MLB mountaintop and also dissect where it all went wrong for the Dodgers as they lose their second consecutive Fall Classic at home. I’ll also deep dive into what it must feel like for the Yankee fan the day after and where the rivalry next year could be headed between the two organizations. Plus, my thoughts on the Mets new GM, Brodie Van Wagenen and whether or not they made the right choice to take this team to the next level. I’ll recap all of Week 8 in the NFL, including the end of the 2018 Giants at the halfway point, with the Jets not that far behind. And insight on the debacle in Jacksonville, the Rams halfway to a perfect regular season and when Le’Veon Bell may come back to play with the Steelers. Don’t forget the week that was, and upcoming in college football, the NHL and what’s with all of these high scoring games in the NBA? Quite a bit to get into for your edification on this weeks episode of The JAYREELZ Podcast. (Episode 37)
