On Headline Sports with Michael Roberson:

#1 Michael wanted to review with you some of this week’s big baseball deals on Tuesday the New York Yankees sent Joey Gallo to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Gallo had not been productive and the Yankees got the itch to send Gallo packing. Gallo was hitting .159 with 25 home runs, 46 RBIs, Gallo did strike out plenty 194 times in 421 at bats.

#2 Gallo was getting booed by the Yankee fans and his ability to move runners over and score had fans riding him at every at bat. Towards the end Gallo was benched. Manager Aaron Boone said he respected Gallo for the way he worked and carried himself and that Boone will be rooting for Gallo from afar.

#3 Speaking of the Yankees Boone said he was excited about obtaining pitchers Frankie Montas and Lou Trivino. It won’t be long that Yankee fans will get a look at Montas who threw for 104 2/3 innings, 109 strikeouts, with 28 walks, and gave up 12 home runs for 3.18 ERA for the A’s.

#4 Turning to football Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross has been suspended by the NFL for tampering after trying to contact quarterback Tom Brady and head coach Sean Payton in an attempt to inquire about Brady and Payton’s services. Ross had been suspended through Oct 17th and after an investigation the Dolphins were trying to tank games in 2019 proved to be inconclusive after former head coach Brian Flores refused to throw games so the Dolphins would get a better draft position. Flores later ended up filing a discrimination suit against the Dolphins. Flores was told Ross was mad that he didn’t compromise football games.

#5 Michael talk about the Denver Broncos losing wide receiver Tim Patrick due to a torn ACL in his right right knee putting him out for the season. Patrick in practice on Tuesday caught a pass in front of Essang Bassey and while running up field his knee give out and he fell to the ground with the torn ACL injury.

On the 49ers podcast with David Zizmor:

#1 David, Deebo Samuel said he had a lot of pressure to get a deal done with the San Francisco 49ers at the right price. Samuel said that at the end of the day business is business. He had expressed an interest in playing elsewhere signed a three year extension worth $73.5 million.

#2 In what could be explained as a turbulent off season for Deebo he was telling the 49ers basically he was leaving and without an extension he was taking his business elsewhere. That’s when general manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan went into panic mode and tried to get something worked out with Samuel.

#3 David next week the 49ers open up their first pre season game on Fri Aug 12th against the Green Bay Packers at Levi Stadium in Santa Clara. As noted by Joe Hawkes who does the 49ers Sunday podcasts said that the 49ers will not be using quarterback Trey Lance and the Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rogers most likely will not see any action that night.

Las Vegas podcast with Tony Renteria:

#1 Tony, Las Vegas Raiders head coach Josh McDaniels said that it means a lot to him to return to his old haunt at Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium where he played as starting quarterback at Canton McKinley High School where the Raiders will face the Jacksonville Jaguars for the Hall of Fame game on Thu Aug 4h.

#2 McDaniels said it was special to drive down the road where it’s dotted with football helmets towards the stadium and where it was on McDaniels way to get to high school each day, “It was fun I played all my games in this stadium.”

#3Tony, how big of a move is it that the Raiders signed pass rusher Chandler Jones. Jones has not been on the field much for this year’s practices and has missed four straight practice sessions so far.

#4 James Palmer of NFL Media report said that there is no concern that it’s early in the pre season schedule and that Jones wants players to get some reps in before the regular season kicks off.

#5 Also tight end Darren Waller has taken the second straight day of practice off for basically the same reason. Besides giving teammates time to get more reps in no doubt Waller is getting some rest in before this Thursday’s Hall of Fame game?

On the 49ers podcast with J Hawkes:

#1 San Francisco 49ers quarterback Trey Lance said there is nothing weird about saying that he can only say nothing but good things about 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo who guided and mentored Lance when he first came to the 49ers.

#2 Lance said that Garoppolo could have made it hell for him when he first got the Niners but he didn’t and he helped Lance out with everything.

#3 Garoppolo is not going to be released by the 49ers but the 49ers are still shopping Garoppolo. The Miami Dolphins have showed interest in Garoppolo. The best time is to trade now.

#4 Joe, talk about linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair who had off season surgeries on his left knee and left elbow. Al-Shaair said that his knee surgery recovery is not as bad as recovery from the elbow surgery.

#5 Yes it’s only pre season but it means a lot to a lot of people everywhere when the Green Bay Packers come calling on Fri Aug 12 against the 49ers at Levi Stadium. How much will you see of Aaron Rogers and Trey Lance in that one?

49ers continue prep for 2022 season on Day 4 of training camp

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — In the last practice before they strap on the pads for full contact, the San Francisco 49ers were busy working out the kinks on Day 4 of Training Camp at their training facility just outside Levi’s Stadium.

There was grim news to begin the day from head coach Kyle Shanahan.

Defensive tackle Maurice Hurst tore his biceps in practice yesterday and will require surgery to repair his biceps. Hurst will most likely miss the entire 2022 season.

San Francisco was already thin on their defensive line with Hassan Ridgeway out (mild quad strain) and Arik Armstead who suffered a knee sprain and will be out a few weeks according to Shanahan.

Quarterback Trey Lance led the offense out in team drills. During 11-on-11 team drills, Lance showed off his running ability, eluding the rush when the pocket broke down around him. He showed off his strong arm that has his teammates impressed.

The 49ers running game led by Elijah Mitchell and JaMychal Hasty had impressive runs during the 11-on-11 team drill.

However, once again for a third straight practice, the vaunted defense of the 49ers stole the show to the delight of the 49ers Faithful who were in attendance.

Linebacker Fred Warner was the star of the defense with a knock away on a George Kittle reception attempt. Warner also had an interception off of Lance who was trying to connect with Ray Ray McCloud.

Other defensive players that stood out was Tarvarius Moore who had two interceptions himself, one of Lane and the other off of quarterback Nate Sudfeld.

Neither Sudfeld or Brock Purdy, both who are battling for the backup QB spot, looked impressive with Sudfeld having numerous overthrows and Purdy not making quick decisions.

Shanahan said he’s liked what he has seen from Lance during the first week of training camp. “Yeah I think I said the last time I thought he had a really good day. I was very happy with the throws. There’s something we have to get on the same page with wide outs on and that’s what camp’s for letting it rip.”

The 49ers have Sunday off to get prepared for their first practice with the pads on Monday morning.

NEWS AND NOTES: Defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw participated in team drills but was limited as the coaching staff is being cautious with him. Kinlaw is coming off surgery to repair his ACL he tore last November.

Offensive tackle Mike McGlinchey participated in team drills for the first time since training camp began.

San Francisco’s first preseason game is on Friday 8/12 hosting the Green Bay Packers at 5:30pm at Levi’s Stadium.

On the Raiders podcast with Rich:

#1 Rich, after the Raiders place linebacker Kyler Fackrell on the injured reserve list that brought in running back Austin Walker which should strengthen the Raiders at the running back position.

#2 Walker joins the Raiders for the 2022 season which will be his fourth NFL season and formerly with the New York Jets, Walker rushed for 101 yards, one touchdown and 26 yards.

#3 Rich, of the top 50 top selling NFL jerseys the Raiders Devante Adams ranks No.7. Adams all his career wanted to be a Raider and his dream came this season and he will No.17 at wide receiver.

#4 Rich, offensive lineman Brandon Parker looks like he will get the starting position over teammate Alex Leatherwood. Parker has seen more action reps in practice and could win the job at right tackle and Leatherwood would be the swing tackle.

#5 Las Vegas Mayor Luis Trujillo says their is a state of emergency for the state of Nevada as the Canyon Hermits Peak Fire in New Mexico contaminated the Gallinas River which Vegas relies on. The river has been contaminated with ash and debris and has only 50 days left of clean water. New Mexico Governor Michelle Grisham said $2.25 million has been earmarked for residents for access to safe drinking water. With football coming up this could if it Vegas runs out of clean water could be a big concern.

On the Raiders podcast with Rich:

#1 Devante Adams compared his former quarterback in Green Bay Aaron Rogers to his new Las Vegas quarterback Derek Carr saying “Anytime you change quarterbacks from Hall of Famer to Hall of Famer it’s going to be a little bit of an adjustment,” Adams.

#2 Rich, Rogers is heading into his 18th NFL season and has won four MVP and was Super Bowl XLV MVP.

#3 Carr is in his ninth season and has been in the Pro Bowl three times and has almost every passing record history and holds a career regular season record of 57-70.

#4 Rich, are the Raiders offense better, worse or the same going into this season and are trying to put some of last season’s troubles like Henry Ruggs and Damon Arnette could they turn it around.

#5 When former Raider coach Jon Gruden took over he almost completely cleaned house and with new head coach Josh McDaniels has taken a brick by brick building process.

San Francisco 49ers podcast with Joe Hawkes: It’s pretty much official Lance to be starting quarterback; Teams balking on Garoppolo because of huge contract

Published on by Sports Radio ServiceLeave a comment

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Trey Lance drops back to pass during practice drills at the 49ers practice facility in Santa Clara on Wed Jun 1, 2022 (AP News file photo)

On the 49ers podcast with Joe Hawkes:

#1 Joe sources pretty much say that the 49ers starting quarterback will be Trey Lance it’s really been no secret and there has been no takers on quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo so will that mean that Garoppolo can participate in practices with the team at some point?

#2 The Seattle Seahawks, New York Giants, Houston Texans, Detroit Lions, Miami Dolphins, and Cleveland Browns but for different reasons any deal fell through.

#3 Head coach Kyle Shanahan was certain that the 49ers will find a trade partner for Garoppolo the hard part of that offering is the remaining year on his contract is $25 million and no team wants to get saddled with that unless the interested team wants to retain some of that contract.

#4 One of the other reasons the Niners want to move Garoppolo is because of Nick Bosa’s contract calls for $33 million and with a guaranteed price of $17 million and they want some cap room.

#5 Joe, the latest on the Deebo Samuel contract talks nothing imminent the 49ers want to get a deal and have Samuel before their first exhibition game against the Minnesota Vikings on Sat Aug 20th.
