Craig Almost Housed An NYC Athlete & Yankees' Urgency

**Craig Carton** (0:00)
What do you think George Lombard does today, off day, as a Yankee for two games? Think he's at the stadium taking ground balls?

**Chris McMonigle** (0:07)
Goes through his social media, makes sure everything's all locked up.

**Craig Carton** (0:10)
Make sure he's following the mayor?

**Chris McMonigle** (0:14)
Yeah, I think he's probably taking just a mental break day, because there's a lot of pressure, and you just need a little breather.

**Craig Carton** (0:22)
When you get called up, and you get the contract at the big league level, right? Do they provide housing for you?

**Chris McMonigle** (0:31)
That is a good question.

**Craig Carton** (0:32)
Because it's a homestay. I thought you joined them on the road.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:34)
Yeah.

**Craig Carton** (0:34)
So you're in the road hotel team.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:36)
Yeah, I'm sure they give you a hotel room, yeah.

**Craig Carton** (0:38)
Well, I wonder what, like, Four Seasons kind of stuff?

**Chris McMonigle** (0:42)
Yeah, I would think.

**Craig Carton** (0:43)
You think it's like they've got, like, a corporate rate at the local Hilton? Yeah, something like that. You do think that?

**Chris McMonigle** (0:49)
I think it's very nice, yeah.

**Craig Carton** (0:50)
Well, which is it? It can't be both. Like, either is George Lombard at the Rich Carlton right now in Battery Park?

**Chris McMonigle** (0:56)
I don't know about the Rich Carlton.

**Craig Carton** (0:57)
Or is he at, like, a Motel 6 in the Bronx?

**Chris McMonigle** (1:00)
No, he's closer to the Ritz than he is Motel 6, but I think it's a very nice hotel. That would be very expensive.

**Craig Carton** (1:07)
You think other guys are staying there, too?
Or just like, hey, we have a hotel deal. You're staying here tonight. You're at the Sheridan. Kind of, kind of. And you think he's in the Bronx or you think he's in Manhattan?

**Chris McMonigle** (1:16)
No, I would think he's...

**Craig Carton** (1:18)
Right?

**Chris McMonigle** (1:19)
He might not be in either. I don't know. I would guess Manhattan, but he could be on the outskirts of...

**Craig Carton** (1:24)
You think the Aggies have, like an ombudsman who's like any... Like an advisor, like a team uncle, for lack of a better description. And you're like, look, new kid comes up, you're staying at Johnny's house tonight. And Johnny's like, yeah, you're a trader or an assistant or whatever.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:41)
Yeah, I think there's a chance he's staying with someone on the team, but I think they probably put him up at a hotel. I think it's a very nice hotel.
I don't know how...

**Craig Carton** (1:48)
You think it's a hotel, not like an employee's...

**Chris McMonigle** (1:51)
Correct.

**Craig Carton** (1:52)
Like couch.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:52)
No. Or he's got an extra bedroom kind of thing. Well, I mean, Boomer's family loves taking in players. Maybe he's hanging out at Boomer's house.

**Craig Carton** (1:59)
Probably not. Probably not.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:00)
Probably not.

**Craig Carton** (2:00)
Because he's not a hockey player. He cares about hockey players. And he likes memdonis, though. You know he's not saving Boomer's point. That's a good point. No, no, right there.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:07)
That's a good point. Kick him right out. Yeah. There's a chance he's at someone's house. If they have a house around here, maybe someone's doing them a favor. But my guess is the Yankees are putting him in a hotel.

**Craig Carton** (2:18)
You gotta guess, what Yankee veteran would say to George Lombard, hey, Rook, you're staying with me until you find a place to live. The rest of this season, you're moving in with my family.
Who would be the most likely Yankee veteran to offer that? I think Bellinger.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:34)
I think Judge or Bellinger.

**Craig Carton** (2:36)
I don't think Judge is that guy at all.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:38)
I think Judge is definitely that guy. I do not. Judge is one of the great teammates. Is he? Everyone loves Judge.

**Craig Carton** (2:43)
They love him because he's great at baseball.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:44)
No, listen to all the stories about, I forget the name of the pitcher. Rookie pitcher got called up having dinner with his family. Judge saw him.

**Craig Carton** (2:51)
Yeah.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:52)
Took care of the whole thing.

**Craig Carton** (2:53)
Okay, I appreciate that. You think he's having George Lombard stay at the crib though?

**Chris McMonigle** (2:58)
That I don't know. Married, young baby, maybe not.

**Craig Carton** (3:01)
Probably not, right? Who else do you think?

**Chris McMonigle** (3:04)
A couple dogs.

**Craig Carton** (3:05)
You think Bellinger might be that guy?
