What's up, everybody? Happy Wednesday. Stormy Buonantony, Jonathan Von Tobel with you here on Money Moves at the D, new digs for today and tomorrow. And of course, I started off today the perfect way. Accidentally still driving to Circa regardless.

**Jonathan Von Tobel** (0:25)
You were reminded five times, I think, in the last 12 hours. Thank you very much. And you still didn't, I didn't forget, because this is one of my favorite spots. Why?

**Stormy Buonantony** (0:35)
Because you like to play Sigma Derby.

**Jonathan Von Tobel** (0:37)
Like to play the ponies when we get here. That was up 70 bucks.

**Stormy Buonantony** (0:40)
And video poker. Like I'm surprised you didn't hit that up too. Just, I mean, it's right here. It's 10 feet away max.

**Jonathan Von Tobel** (0:46)
It was, it was. You know, I would have, but there were certain parameters that were not met. So I decided to go and play the ponies instead.

**Stormy Buonantony** (0:54)
How did it go?

**Jonathan Von Tobel** (0:55)
Up 70 bucks.

**Stormy Buonantony** (0:56)
And then?

**Jonathan Von Tobel** (0:57)
And then I blew it. It's all right.

**Stormy Buonantony** (0:59)
Got burned.

**Jonathan Von Tobel** (1:00)
I decided to go all in. So I only threw 40 bucks in. And then on, because you were here and you want to get ready for the show. So I was like, all right, let me just throw my 40 here that I started with down on my last horse. It was a six to one, not a very big long shot. And then a 67 to one closes out passes by four horses and gets the win. Beats me. I finished second.

**Stormy Buonantony** (1:20)
It was brutal. It's almost like that's how the games are formulated to play out. One might say, you know, we all just prepare for the show a little bit differently. That's how you prep today. Meanwhile, our producer Corey and I were, you know, hard at work typing away, trying to finalize some things.

**Jonathan Von Tobel** (1:33)
I know that you're really souped up and ready to go on these baseball segments. So I'm very much looking forward to what you feel about a lot of these big games here later today, which we will get to in a little bit, shall we? I mean, in fact, I could probably just take the segment off.

**Stormy Buonantony** (1:45)
Okay. He is messing with me because he knows how dialed into football I am at this point. And it's just rude. That said, we do have plenty of baseball we're going to get into a really interesting night last night on the diamond, which we will discuss in a moment. But for now, let's set the table for everything else that is to come. Like we always do. Time for the rundown.

**Jonathan Von Tobel** (2:02)
It's time for the top headlines and topics of the day. This is the rundown.

**Stormy Buonantony** (2:08)
We've got a blistering favorite for the PGA Tour Championship coming up. We're going to have the one and only Kelley Bydlon join us in just a little bit to break down the 30-man field. And I say blistering favorite because Scotty Scheffler coming off the hand, foot and mouth disease is plus 340, a very prohibited favorite yet again. Here we'll get Kelley's thoughts on Scotty, his thoughts on the field at large. And I'm also curious what his opinion is on what the new look playoff system is going to be beginning in 2028

**Jonathan Von Tobel** (2:39)
Well, he says, Scotty, that is that he's 95% healed from whatever this is. What is it? A hand, foot and mouth disease that he is suffering from. So I guess 95% Scotty Schaepler still should be good enough to be priced the way that he is now.

**Stormy Buonantony** (2:52)
One would think, and especially considering even last week when he was dealing with it and talked about how difficult just the grip was on the driver and everything to begin with, he still ended up finishing T12. So you do that what you will. Plenty of National Football League to discuss as well today as our NFL training camp tour continues. The Raiders of the Lost Games will be who we are previewing today. Win total set at five and a half. Kirk Cousin, yes, you're starting quarterback, but the Fernando Mendoza era, we imagine, will begin at some point this season, just a matter of when.

**Jonathan Von Tobel** (3:24)
I guess. By the way, is that an Indiana Jones reference?

**Stormy Buonantony** (3:27)
Is that? Okay.
