Best of the Yankees on WFAN: Trade deadline needs

**Craig Carton** (0:00)
I can't wait for you to get your big bonus check, buy yourself that Traeger you've been hoping for one day. Be nice. I'm nice.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:07)
A Traeger I'm hoping for.

**Craig Carton** (0:07)
Yeah, that's what I'm hoping for.
I've been trying to get a Traeger for a decade. Can't bring myself to buy it, though.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:13)
No?

**Craig Carton** (0:14)
No, so I want someone else to get it for me.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:17)
No, I'll go buy a...

**Craig Carton** (0:18)
But there's a reason for it.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:19)
Heart of the Heart baseball glove.

**Craig Carton** (0:20)
Because I had the green egg, okay? The ceramic broke on it, so I had to throw that out because it's hard to replace the ceramic, right? Because that's what the whole thing is, right? And it's ridiculously expensive. We got it as like a housewarming gift, and it's a great gift, but gonzo. I had the small little...
It's almost like a chimney smoker.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:41)
Okay.

**Craig Carton** (0:42)
Like an upright smoker, you know what I mean by that?

**Chris McMonigle** (0:43)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

**Craig Carton** (0:44)
And you can only fit like a rack of ribs in it. Right. And all the work you have to go through to monitor the temperature and constantly like opening the vent and closing the vent and putting more wood in it. It's a pain in the ass for one rack of ribs, right? So I've been to Buddy's Houses who have the Y Traeger where you can fit like 10 racks of ribs, a couple of pork butts, wings, and it's like... It's got like...
Not Bluetooth, but you know, built-in technology. So you don't have to go out in the 3 o'clock in the morning and you keep feeding it and monitoring the temperature. It does it like automatically. That's what I'm looking for.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:25)
The smoker?

**Craig Carton** (1:26)
The Traeger smoker where it's like a set it and forget it type of thing. That's what I want.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:32)
I have the pit boss. It's not a Traeger.

**Craig Carton** (1:33)
Is it similar though?

**Chris McMonigle** (1:34)
Yeah, it's similar.

**Craig Carton** (1:35)
But like you just set like the 225 and you're good.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:37)
You're good.

**Craig Carton** (1:37)
You never have to check on it.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:39)
Well, no, you put the thermometers in or whatever and it's hooked up to the app on your phone.

**Craig Carton** (1:45)
Yeah, I need one of them.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:46)
And from your bed you can monitor, oh, it's dipped or whatever. Oh, I ran out of pellets. I got to run down there. But it tells you.

**Craig Carton** (1:51)
Yeah. So how do I get one of those?

**Chris McMonigle** (1:54)
Go to Lowe's. Your favorite place to go.

**Craig Carton** (1:55)
I love Lowe's.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:56)
They sell them there.

**Craig Carton** (1:57)
I'm a Lowe's guy.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:58)
There you go.

**Craig Carton** (1:59)
Lowe's. Do they come already assembled or no?

**Chris McMonigle** (2:01)
Yes. Really?

**Craig Carton** (2:02)
So I have to make two trips to Lowe's like I typically do. Every project I've ever done, I do a lot of woodworking. There's always, I got to go back to Lowe's.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:10)
No, you buy it.

**Craig Carton** (2:11)
Or to Ace.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:13)
I can't remember if it came shipped and they brought it to me like put together or put together.

**Craig Carton** (2:19)
I think you had like a service that came and put it together. I think I would do the service. I'd put it together myself because I like that. But yeah, so if you guys want to pitch in.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:27)
There are certain things I'm willing to put together. I'm not putting together a smoker.

**Craig Carton** (2:30)
Oh, I would.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:30)
An electronic smoker.

**Craig Carton** (2:31)
Yeah, but I enjoy that. That's like my thing.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:33)
Yeah, not electronic.

**Craig Carton** (2:34)
I'm not even saying that. I'm better at it. I just like doing it.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:36)
I get you. You want to put together an Ikea desk or an Ikea chifferobe.

**Craig Carton** (2:43)
You said your middle name was Alan Wrench. You love a good Alan Wrench, you told me once.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:47)
Listen, it's not the worst Saturday afternoon with a cocktail, putting together an Ikea thing, watching the Yankee game.

**Craig Carton** (2:53)
It's not the worst thing. Isn't it weird though when you get that one Alan Wrench and you can't fit your fat fingers around the thing?
