Speaker 3: going to pop on as well, and guys, here we go, right,

50
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 3: this is the moment tomorrow that we've all been waiting

51
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:58,360
Speaker 3: for since twenty twenty two when they had that phenomenal

52
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 3: series against the Astros. Every game, Bucky will start with

53
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 3: you is a was a nail bier. Obviously you get

54
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 3: swept in three. But they I thought comported themselves very

55
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 3: well in that series three years ago against the Astros,

56
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 3: and we all thought, Okay, you come to the offseason

57
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 3: going into twenty twenty three, your reset, and then you

58
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,239
Speaker 3: make a run right like we thought in ninety five,

59
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,399
Speaker 3: you guys are probably not you not old enough. Ian

60
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 3: and Bucky are I'm not sure about you. Mark sitting

61
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 3: there after the ninety five season came to an end,

62
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:26,799
Speaker 3: thinking well, we're going to the World Series next year.

63
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:28,919
Speaker 3: We got a Rod, we got Edgar, we got Buner,

64
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 3: we got Randy, we got Griffy, we got all these guys.

65
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 3: In thirty years later and it hasn't happened. But this

66
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 3: is three years now, Bucky, after they ended the curse

67
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 3: in twenty twenty two. What are our thoughts. We'll go

68
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:42,640
Speaker 3: around the room and start with you, Bucky. What this

69
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 3: team is capable of getting done. Starting tomorrow at five

70
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 3: point thirty eight against the.

71
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,639
Speaker 9: Tigers, They're capable winning the whole thing. I mean, there's

72
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,800
Speaker 9: no way around that. I mean, what they're bringing to

73
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 9: the table, pitching staff, starting rotation primarily, and then one

74
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,639
Speaker 9: of the deeper lineups. Maybe the Phillies have a more

75
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,680
Speaker 9: pote lineup, but that as far as depth goes, anybody

76
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 9: at any point in time that can chip in and

77
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 9: win a game for you. I mean, this is about

78
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 9: as deep of a lineup as I can remember, all

79
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 9: the way back to probably two thousand and one, two

80
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:15,360
Speaker 9: thousand and two, when that amazing team. They had an

81
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 9: amazing team back then. Obviously, I think that there's the

82
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 9: capability is this guy's the limit of what they're capable

83
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 9: of doing. And I think the beautiful thing is that

84
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 9: they did get that getting off the schneid a little

85
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:28,919
Speaker 9: bit a couple of years ago. I mean, you think

86
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 9: about it, when Cal hit that home run, He's running

87
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 9: around the bases and he touches his helmet. He's like,

88
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 9: oh my god, he coming to home and he goes

89
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 9: across the throat like this the drought is over. They

90
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 9: accomplished the biggest goal that they could have possibly hoped for.

91
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 9: Even if in the back of their mind they were thinking,

92
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 9: we want to win a World Series, their main thing

93
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 9: was can we break this drought? So I think they

94
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 9: broke the drought. There was a bunch of young guys

95
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 9: that had never experienced playoff baseball. They end up winning

96
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 9: that first one against Toronto and then running into the

97
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 9: buzzsaw that has been Houston for the better part of

98
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 9: a decade. Well, they've they've overcome that hurdle, that hurdles

99
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 9: behind him at this point in time. And I don't

100
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 9: think there's any any person in that clubhouse or organization

101
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 9: for that matter, that is just satisfied with making the

102
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 9: playoffs and getting to buy through the first.

103
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 5: Round, no, no question.

104
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 3: And Ian, look, you were there in ninety five, you

105
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 3: were your forty five, then you're seventy five. Now you're

106
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 3: pretty close. Here we are here, we are thirty years later.

107
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,280
Speaker 3: And you know, Bucky, Bucky said it. I thought eloquently

108
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 3: that three years ago it was okay to make the playoffs,

109
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,160
Speaker 3: it was okay to end the drought, right because you

110
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,280
Speaker 3: got to take baby steps. Were here we are now

111
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 3: in the exact same series in the Division series that

112
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:33,919
Speaker 3: we were at three years ago. We talked about this

113
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:37,160
Speaker 3: yesterday on the radio show. In your opinion, is making

114
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 3: this point enough or does this baseball team now need

115
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,600
Speaker 3: to be to do more to make this year of success.

116
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 7: Well, first of all, you use the word comported, I like,

117
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 7: who are?

118
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 3: I had to look it up, by the way, Okay, yeah, yeah, beha,

119
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 3: I have a subscription to dictionary dot com.

120
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 7: By the way, kind of use it the right context, but.

121
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 4: I absolutely used it in the right context anyway.

122
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:00,840
Speaker 7: Uh, I think the difference.

123
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 8: The interesting thing is, to answer your question, I don't

124
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 8: think it's enough just to get here because of what

125
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 8: Bucky just said. I think this team has a higher

126
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:11,479
Speaker 8: potential now because baseball has these short series of five

127
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 8: games and we've already seen I mean San Diego was

128
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,839
Speaker 8: kind of everyone's darling, right, and they're home after three, So,

129
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 8: you know, I think the cliche it's true, though, anything

130
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,159
Speaker 8: can happen in a short series and in baseball. But

131
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 8: you know, ninety five was interesting because of everything that

132
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 8: happened that year. You know, getting in you know, he's

133
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 8: gonna score, everyone's gonna score. Is Rizzi's losing his mind,

134
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,720
Speaker 8: and you know, two thousand and one. Two thousand and one, honestly, guys,

135
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:39,039
Speaker 8: feels like the only year. And maybe this is just

136
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 8: me as a jaded Mariner fan, but two thousand and

137
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,119
Speaker 8: one felt like the one year that, hey, this team

138
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,160
Speaker 8: has a potential when you should you win one hundred

139
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 8: and sixteen games to win it all. Every other year

140
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 8: it's been well, we're happy to be there, right, We're

141
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 8: just happy to be there.

142
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 5: Right.

143
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:53,919
Speaker 7: This team's better than that.

144
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 8: This team is is whether it's the pitching staff, the lineup,

145
00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,479
Speaker 8: and you know these guys are talking about it, Chuck

146
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 8: and Bucket this morning on their show. I mean one

147
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 8: through nine, right, like one through nine. There aren't a

148
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 8: lot of holes in the lineup, and every guy has

149
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 8: has some pop in his bat. I don't think it's

150
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 8: good enough just to get to the Alds. If they

151
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 8: lose in five, maybe we can revisit that question. But

152
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:15,720
Speaker 8: I think this is a team that needs to get

153
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,280
Speaker 8: to at least the Alcs, and I think they have

154
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 8: the potential to win it all. And we haven't said

155
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 8: that often in forty nine years.

156
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,040
Speaker 3: All right, So Mark wanted a few minutes to get

157
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,279
Speaker 3: to the bar and grab a drink, he's done that right.

158
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 3: He's got a double Tito soda in front of him,

159
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 3: by the way, so he's ready to rock.

160
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,280
Speaker 4: You're new to this town, but you've been here a while.

161
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 3: You've been here long enough now to know months the

162
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:38,040
Speaker 3: history of this town, what we've been through. Nobody has

163
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 3: waited longer than us to play in the World Series

164
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 3: in baseball because we're the last team to make it.

165
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 3: If we do make it, make it. So what does

166
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,159
Speaker 3: this team need to accomp with starting tomorrow to make

167
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,599
Speaker 3: this year success? Well, first of all, four word softy

168
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 3: World Series are boss. This is the best roster in

169
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 3: the American League. Yeah, hands down, okay.

170
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 6: And but like what Bucky said too about you know

171
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 6: the Dodgers in the Phillies, but I'll go do Phil,

172
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 6: He's probably maybe the third best roster in baseball. But

173
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 6: one of the things that surprised me, guys about this

174
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 6: is that teams that have earned the bye in the

175
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 6: new playoff format are six and six in the division

176
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,559
Speaker 6: series since the new playoff format was introduced in twenty

177
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 6: twenty two, So earning the bye doesn't necessarily mean a

178
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 6: fast pass to the Alcs. That being said, you look

179
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 6: at what this team did. I don't count the Dodgers

180
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,559
Speaker 6: series last weekend because they had already accomplished did everything

181
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 6: they did. They got won seventeen on the previous eighteen

182
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 6: games one through nine. They have the best starting rotation

183
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 6: when healthy. Bullpen can be a little iffy here and there.

184
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 6: Caleb Ferguson, Brash Munnos. There's no reason why this team

185
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 6: should not make a march to the Fall Classic and

186
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,559
Speaker 6: win it all. They have everything they could ever want.

187
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 6: Jerry Depoto did the job. The week before the deadline.

188
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 6: He traded for Josh Naylor. The day of the deadline,

189
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 6: he traded for Gino Suarez, and he got Caleb Ferguson.

190
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 6: In between, everything is all the stars are aligned. But

191
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 6: Ian said in two thousand and one, you know the pain.

192
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 6: One of the things a guy in Atlanta once told me.

193
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 6: He said, you know what you can know every city's

194
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,200
Speaker 6: franchise sports history like the back of your hand. You

195
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 6: don't know the pain, Softy, I don't know the pain

196
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:18,400
Speaker 6: what you and Ian and Chuck and Buck and Ashley

197
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 6: and everybody here and Dick have been through. I don't

198
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 6: know that pain. I can tell you this. I think

199
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 6: that the Mariners fans that they deserve a World Series

200
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 6: and that they deserve to get to this and then

201
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 6: why not do it now?

202
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 4: As cal Rally once said, let's go win the the

203
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 4: whole in thing. And that's what this team can do.

204
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,319
Speaker 6: They have the best roster in the American League, and

205
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,439
Speaker 6: to me, if they don't make it to.

206
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 4: The World Series, softy, it's a disappoint all right.

207
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 3: Well, first of all, I'm glad you mentioned cal because

208
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:49,200
Speaker 3: I can play my new favorite drive, Naughty Cow. And

209
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,439
Speaker 3: then second of all, Bucky, you know, just going back

210
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,760
Speaker 3: to what Mark was talking about there that look, I

211
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 3: mean I agree with him on the roster. I think

212
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 3: all of us agree. This is the best roster of

213
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 3: the Mariners have had, probably Bucky and twenty four years minimum, right,

214
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 3: maybe even more so going back to two thousand and

215
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 3: one when they won one hundred and sixteen games. But

216
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 3: crazy things happen in the playoffs, right, Even the longer

217
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 3: the series goes, you play a seven to nine, eleven

218
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,719
Speaker 3: thirteen game series, and the more the cream rises.

219
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:14,840
Speaker 7: To the top.

220
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:18,200
Speaker 3: The question is, is this roster set up to win

221
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 3: a five game do or die series against the Tigers,

222
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 3: which is a five game mini sample, small sample of

223
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 3: what you just did over one hundred.

224
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 5: And sixty two games.

225
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 9: Oh well, yeah, I mean most certainly are. I mean,

226
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 9: and talking about how far, how long it's been, I

227
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 9: mean back to four probably is the best roster since then.

228
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:38,959
Speaker 9: I mean, we did lose ninety nine games a year,

229
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,839
Speaker 9: but I was on that, So we'll just go ahead

230
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:45,199
Speaker 9: and stop it. Oh five is when the bad rosters started,

231
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:49,600
Speaker 9: right ha ha. But and I mean I'll just say yes,

232
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 9: are they equipped to do it? They most certainly are.

233
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 9: That doesn't mean that it'll get done to sure what

234
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:55,960
Speaker 9: Mark was saying there. I mean, it's just there's so

235
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 9: many sliding doors that happened. I mean, I'll be disappointed

236
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 9: if they just don't show up, if they lose this

237
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 9: series and they didn't show up on multiple fronts. Right,

238
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,560
Speaker 9: we've watched this pitching staff as dominant as it was

239
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 9: last year and for the most part of the year

240
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:10,920
Speaker 9: before and majority of this year. If they show up

241
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 9: and they look like they did through that skid where

242
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 9: one and a half two times through the rotation, everybody

243
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 9: was getting lit up and at the same time, the

244
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 9: offense wasn't doing anything to pick to pick up the pitchers.

245
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,160
Speaker 9: I'll be disappointed with that. If they go out here

246
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 9: and play the way they're capable, then yeah.

247
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 2: It is.

248
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,319
Speaker 9: Legitimately there's a reason they are the favorites to win

249
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 9: the World Series at this point because everybody goes, Okay,

250
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 9: we can't expect you to play at your ceiling for

251
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 9: a month long, but we think your floor is higher

252
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 9: than everybody else's floor. And that is without a doubt.

253
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 9: With this pitching staff, they have enough arms in the bullpen.

254
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,760
Speaker 9: Chuck mentioned on our morning show this morning of Caleb

255
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 9: Ferguson could be in a big part of this whole

256
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 9: thing because you now have two lefties, not just game spier.

257
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 9: You have two guys that you can go out there

258
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:54,680
Speaker 9: and dice guys up and change the way in which

259
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,560
Speaker 9: the opponent, your opposing manager goes about pinch hitting guys

260
00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 9: and whatnot. I mean, they don't have to play over

261
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 9: their skis. That's the beauty of it. When we were

262
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 9: going up against Houston a couple of years ago in

263
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 9: order to beat them, and they still could have right

264
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 9: and Robbie Ray didn't get at the home run, you're

265
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,319
Speaker 9: on Alvarez doesn't go If that eighteen inning game goes

266
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,800
Speaker 9: a different direction. You may be advanced, but it didn't

267
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 9: feel like that team was really ready to compete for

268
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 9: a World Cheries. This team is ready to compete for

269
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 9: a World Cheries. They just have to go out and

270
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:22,560
Speaker 9: do what they're capable.

271
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, like we said, we just got to

272
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 3: wait and see how they comport themselves against the Tigers

273
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,320
Speaker 3: start tomorrow. But you know, look, the announcement came out

274
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,200
Speaker 3: today via Dan Wilson.

275
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 4: George Kirby is going to start game one. Bucky.

276
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 3: We were talking yesterday and I initially had said Kirby

277
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 3: and then changed my mind to Logan Gilbert. So I'll

278
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 3: take the l on that. But Ian, what do you

279
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:43,400
Speaker 3: make of that call? And it's a guy who's got

280
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 3: some home road splits three three eight ERA at home,

281
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 3: five point one six on the road. Also noticed by

282
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 3: the way that in three starts at Comerica Park, George

283
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 3: Kirby has a six point six ERA. I wonder how

284
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 3: much of this is Dan Wilson just wanting to keep

285
00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,960
Speaker 3: him out of Camerica and go with him in game

286
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 3: number one when there's a bullpen day coming tomorrow for Detroit.

287
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 3: What was your take on George Kirby getting to start tomorrow.

288
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:09,960
Speaker 8: I don't know if anybody that saw that today wasn't surprised.

289
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:10,959
Speaker 7: I think we all thought.

290
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 8: I think we all kind of thought it would be

291
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 8: some combination of Gilbert Castile in one and two, and

292
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,880
Speaker 8: you know you're opening day starters logan Gilbert, and you're thinking, Okay,

293
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 8: that's probably your Game one starter. The way it could

294
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,200
Speaker 8: set up, Castillo goes against Schooble because he's just cut

295
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 8: from a different cloth. Things don't seem to bother that guy,

296
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 8: especially at home, so you go with him in that

297
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 8: second game. I was surprised with Kirby. I know, you know,

298
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 8: Chuck and Bucky and I were talking before we started

299
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:35,680
Speaker 8: the show. I know Chuck's got some strong opinions on

300
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:36,200
Speaker 8: this as well.

301
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 7: I don't know.

302
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,439
Speaker 8: I guess part of me thinks, can you really go wrong?

303
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 8: You know, like, can you really go wrong with this rotation?

304
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 8: Is because that's the strength of the team as good

305
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 8: as a lineup as we just talked about. I'll tell

306
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 8: you this, I'm disappointed Brian.

307
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 7: Who was not healthy.

308
00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:54,040
Speaker 8: Yeah, I just as a fan, just as someone that

309
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 8: isn't baseball guy, just as a fan. I don't know,

310
00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,199
Speaker 8: I just I love watching this kid pitch. I think

311
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,080
Speaker 8: he's just he just got something in him that's just

312
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 8: a little different. And I think when you get to

313
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 8: this time of the year, you want that out there.

314
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,840
Speaker 8: But can you really go wrong with the condemned? And

315
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 8: the splits are interesting because I know these guys have

316
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 8: a lot of opinions on that short series playoffs are different.

317
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 8: My buddy Ino Sarah's wrote a great story in The

318
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:22,840
Speaker 8: Athletic listing a long long list of Hall of famers

319
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 8: that have been awful in the playoffs, guys by the

320
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:29,680
Speaker 8: name of Demaggio, Morgan, Dill Morgan surprised me. I thought

321
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:31,520
Speaker 8: I just figured everything. The big Red Machine was great.

322
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:35,079
Speaker 8: Apparently not. Jackie Robinson was good at baseball, he was

323
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 8: awful in the playoffs. So I don't know how much

324
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 8: home road regular season matters. Yeah, And because by the

325
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,560
Speaker 8: same token, see, I was going against the guy that

326
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,320
Speaker 8: they beat the hell out of this year ten innings,

327
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 8: seven runs in Scoople, So like, if we want to

328
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 8: go down that road, it's like, well, they should be

329
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:53,600
Speaker 8: dominating him.

330
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,199
Speaker 7: So I don't think can go wrong. But I think

331
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 7: we're all surprised.

332
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 3: Well, at some point, Kirby's gonna pitch and he's probably

333
00:13:58,000 --> 00:13:59,880
Speaker 3: gonna pitch on with the first three because of Wu's

334
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:04,199
Speaker 3: situation there, Mark, But you know absolutely, I mean Randy Johnson,

335
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,360
Speaker 3: you know, for all the praise he gets for that

336
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 3: game in ninety five, coming out of the bullpen, he

337
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 3: actually gave up the lead and Edgar Martinez had to

338
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 3: get it back on the double down the left field line.

339
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,079
Speaker 3: So your thoughts on the on the matchup Kirby in

340
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 3: game one, Castillo in Game two.

341
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 4: Surprised by that at all. I call Logan Gilbert Daddy.

342
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 6: I think he's the ACE, and I would have gone

343
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,840
Speaker 6: I would have gone with Daddy aka Walter, that's his uh,

344
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 6: you know, he's his alter ego. I would have gone

345
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 6: with Logan Gilbert. But that's just me, Mike, listen. I

346
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 6: think the Mariners this matches up when anytime a team

347
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 6: in aj Hinch, who, by the way, he's been there before.

348
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 6: He won the twenty seventeen World Series. He was suspended

349
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 6: in twenty nineteen, but he knows now whatever happened in

350
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 6: the regular season. I saw some stat cal Rowley's won

351
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 6: seventy four this season against the Tiger who cares throw

352
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:48,320
Speaker 6: that out the window.

353
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:50,480
Speaker 4: I don't care what I want to know, Softy.

354
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,720
Speaker 6: There's only one player on the Mariners franchise right now,

355
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,320
Speaker 6: on this team that has had postseason success.

356
00:14:57,520 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 4: His name is Randy A.

357
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 6: Rosarina from who was on the Tampa Bay Rays when

358
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 6: he led them to the World Series in twenty twenty.

359
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 6: Who's gonna be that guy besides Randy, who's gonna step up?

360
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,400
Speaker 6: And for me, obviously we know we spect big things

361
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 6: out of the guy who should win the MVP and

362
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:14,760
Speaker 6: Cal Rowley. I'm interested to see Julio Rodriguez because I

363
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 6: looked up late inning pressure situations. Julio's batting two thirty

364
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 6: five and seventy two games this season. And for me,

365
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 6: if you want to be just a from a fringe

366
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:26,920
Speaker 6: all star to an actual superstar like Ian just said,

367
00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 6: to win the postseason, who's gonna be Jim lay Ridge,

368
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,000
Speaker 6: Who's gonna be Scott Brochus for the Seattle.

369
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 5: That's right, Well, let's hear this.

370
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 3: We'll come back and talk about who those heroes are

381
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 11: I have to confess, I don't think I have a legacy.

382
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 11: I don't especially care about my legacy. I'm all about

383
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 11: winning for the fans. And you know, these players are hungry,

384
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 11: they're excited, they're frankly in many cases, at the peak

385
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 11: of their playing ability. And and I think it's a

386
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 11: it's a time for us to bring it all together.

387

417
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,200
Speaker 3: Well, let's let's just talk about that clip you heard

418
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 3: from John stant right there. John stant was on with

419
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,159
Speaker 3: us about what an hour ago, and you're gonna hear

420
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,959
Speaker 3: the replay coming up around six thirty tonight, the chairman

421
00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 3: of the Mariners, And we asked him about his legacy

422
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 3: in this town and what do you thinks say world

423
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:03,200
Speaker 3: series title.

424
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,480
Speaker 4: Would do to his legacy? And he says, I don't

425
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 4: care about things like that.

426
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 3: I mean, what do you think, what do you think

427
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 3: John Stanton's legacy is the owner, the public face, if

428
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 3: you will, of this ownership group is right now, Chuck.

429
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,880
Speaker 5: Cup Well, I mean I think that. I mean I don't.

430
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 13: I think John's got a large ownership group to have

431
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:23,920
Speaker 13: to answer to, and he takes a lot of shots

432
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:28,200
Speaker 13: as being the face of that group, and so not

433
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 13: all of those decisions are John Stanton, so he takes

434
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:33,879
Speaker 13: but nobody knows any of the other faces to blame.

435
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 13: So I'll give him credit. I think he stepped up

436
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 13: last year at the trading deadline. I've told Bucky this

437
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,879
Speaker 13: in the past, You don't have to be the owner

438
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 13: that we want you to be, but you need to

439
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 13: be the owner we need you to be at certain

440
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 13: moments during during your time in this position. And I

441
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 13: don't think he's been that in the off season. I

442
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:56,159
Speaker 13: think he pulled the rug out from underneath Jerry and

443
00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 13: justin a couple of years ago after the playoff appearance,

444
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 13: and I thought that was dirty and kind of let

445
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:06,399
Speaker 13: Jerry take all the slings and arrows that day. But

446
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,520
Speaker 13: the last two trading deadlines, it's been an owner that

447
00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:11,480
Speaker 13: has stepped up and said, spend what you need to.

448
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,639
Speaker 13: We'll even take on a rental player, which is something

449
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,760
Speaker 13: they've been, you know, kind of stand offish to do

450
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 13: in the past. And so this year, I think it's

451
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 13: all come together. I think Jerry's kind of fixed his

452
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 13: holes in his game, and I think John's kind of

453
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 13: fixed the holes in his game, and in doing that,

454
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 13: we've fixed the holes.

455
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:32,200
Speaker 5: On this roster. And I don't think they have any

456
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:33,400
Speaker 5: holes right now. Yeah.

457
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:35,159
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, and Dick, it's funny because you and

458
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 3: I have gone back and forth on this for a

459
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 3: long time. Look, I mean, obviously people make mistakes and

460
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:41,879
Speaker 3: nobody's human right, and John's gonna do some good stuff,

461
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,520
Speaker 3: and he's gonna do some stuff that's worth criticism. But

462
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 3: I think in the end, we're at a point now where, man,

463
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:49,720
Speaker 3: you got a chance to make up for a lot

464
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,200
Speaker 3: of past mistakes if you can just do one thing

465
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 3: and that's got eleven more victories in the next month.

466
00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 5: Ouse qurating is rising.

467
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,160
Speaker 13: It's rising slowly right now, but it's going to rise

468
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:03,480
Speaker 13: exponential with each series victory, right. And you know, he

469
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:06,159
Speaker 13: even admitted with us he said it was painful to

470
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 13: make those trade deadline deals, like financially painful.

471
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,280
Speaker 7: But he said it was it was worthwhile.

472
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 13: And I think I think really the major difference between

473
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 13: what the fan base wants and what John Stanton does

474
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 13: is I think the fan base wants it done every

475
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:21,760
Speaker 13: single year, right. The fan base wants all in, all in,

476
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:26,240
Speaker 13: all in, and John picks and chooses his spots based

477
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,639
Speaker 13: upon when he and Jerry think it's time to go.

478
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,200
Speaker 7: And I don't have a problem with that.

479
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,400
Speaker 13: I would just say that I think the fan base

480
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:35,600
Speaker 13: has been right a couple of more times over the

481
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 13: last few years when John and Jerry didn't think the

482
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 13: team was ready to roll. I think with a couple

483
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:42,679
Speaker 13: of moves, the team would have been ready to roll

484
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:45,399
Speaker 13: potentially last year or even in twenty twenty three.

485
00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:48,159
Speaker 3: Well, and Bucky, that's the thing is that there's been

486
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 3: times and Chuck knows this. You guys both know this

487
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:53,560
Speaker 3: where I think Jerry's kind of underestimated what he had, right,

488
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:55,720
Speaker 3: and this was a year, Bucky, where they did not

489
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:58,240
Speaker 3: underestimate what they had. If there was ever a time

490
00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:00,960
Speaker 3: to go out and get Suarez and get Nailor and

491
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,200
Speaker 3: make the move for Ferguson, it was right freaking now

492
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 3: this year to make a run. And the thing that

493
00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:07,680
Speaker 3: gives me a lot of hope, Bucky, I think what

494
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:09,640
Speaker 3: I really relied upon a lot this year. I want

495
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:11,680
Speaker 3: to know if you agree with this, is the division

496
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,840
Speaker 3: just was wide open, right, and then you expand that,

497
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:18,400
Speaker 3: you expand that, Bucky, to the league. I mean, there's

498
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,120
Speaker 3: no elite dominant team in this league right now, which

499
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 3: is a good thing and a bad thing because there's

500
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:24,840
Speaker 3: probably three or four teams that think they could make

501
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 3: the World Series.

502
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:26,480
Speaker 5: Yeah.

503
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:30,040
Speaker 9: Well, I mean the idea of where they have been

504
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:32,359
Speaker 9: and then maybe falling short of making some of the

505
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,600
Speaker 9: moves for whatever reason they fall in love with too

506
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,680
Speaker 9: many prospects or didn't want to go the rental guy route,

507
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 9: which they obviously did times two this year. I mean,

508
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,520
Speaker 9: however they were looking at it, it improved them enough.

509
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,680
Speaker 9: The thing is that that kind of boggles my mind

510
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,160
Speaker 9: when the criticism, and it's not that there isn't criticism

511
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 9: to be thrown around.

512
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 4: I think that John.

513
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:55,080
Speaker 9: Stanton would say, yeah, I kind of tighten my purse

514
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 9: up a little bit more than maybe people would like.

515
00:21:57,880 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 9: And if that's the criticism, I get so be.

516
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 5: But to Chuck's point, as.

517
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 9: Long as he does what he we need him to

518
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 9: do when we need him to do it, like he

519
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 9: opened that bad boy up to pay Suarez and Naylor

520
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 9: as rentals this season, I mean, I'm okay with it

521
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 9: because really you're talking about difference between last year epic

522
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 9: pitching performance out of the Mariners staff and then this

523
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,600
Speaker 9: year the I mean, you've missed a bunch of guys.

524
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 9: Sixty percent of your guys were out for fairly significant

525
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:28,200
Speaker 9: amount of time, but then you upgraded at the trade

526
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:31,560
Speaker 9: deadline and it equated to five more wins. And that

527
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:33,720
Speaker 9: is that can not only gets you in, but gets

528
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,200
Speaker 9: you a first round by through the whole thing. To me,

529
00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:37,960
Speaker 9: it's you got to be able to make some of

530
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 9: these moves. At the same time, I know everybody hates

531
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 9: the idea of being patient. I think Mariner fans have

532
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 9: been as patient as any fan based on the in

533
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:47,200
Speaker 9: the history of sports. Right, But there is if I'm

534
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 9: patient right up until the moment before it's going to happen,

535
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:53,200
Speaker 9: that I don't want him to go and do something

536
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 9: that would kind of bring down the house of cards,

537
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:57,800
Speaker 9: so to speak. I think that maybe last year would

538
00:22:57,800 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 9: have been the first year that they could have and

539
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:02,200
Speaker 9: should have done something than more. And yet most fans

540
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:05,800
Speaker 9: that are really irritated are talking about forty years of irritation.

541
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:07,920
Speaker 3: That builds up and check. That's the thing is that,

542
00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 3: you know, fifty two years old. I just think that

543
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:12,880
Speaker 3: the word patience should be stricken from their vocabulary over there.

544
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,600
Speaker 3: Just call it something else, call it chicken sandwich, right this,

545
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,560
Speaker 3: just just don't use the P word. But all these

546
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,879
Speaker 3: questions that I'm asking you now are really things that

547
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,720
Speaker 3: we can talk about when the season comes to an end, right, legacy,

548
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:25,560
Speaker 3: did they do enough?

549
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:26,520
Speaker 5: Did they not do enough?

550
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,120
Speaker 3: The only thing that should matter right now is doing

551
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:30,960
Speaker 3: whatever you can do to get a win tomorrow night

552
00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,240
Speaker 3: in game one and giving yourself a giant leg up

553
00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 3: on Detroit.

554
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,639
Speaker 4: So you weren't here for the first segment, George Kirby, we.

555
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:39,440
Speaker 3: Talked about this yesterday on your show Gets the Ball

556
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:43,119
Speaker 3: in game number one. Luis Castillo in game number two.

557
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:44,639
Speaker 3: How surprised were you by that today?

558
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:49,040
Speaker 13: A very yeah, It's what I've been saying a whole time, right, No,

559
00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:53,159
Speaker 13: I'm very surprised by it. And I think to Ian's

560
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,560
Speaker 13: point from the previous segment, I don't think there was

561
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:58,680
Speaker 13: a bad decision to be made here, but I do

562
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:01,040
Speaker 13: think there was a decision made.

563
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 4: Was this the one one?

564
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 5: I do?

565
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:04,919
Speaker 13: I think it's a wrong one. I think that they

566
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,640
Speaker 13: put way too much stock in the home road splits.

567
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 13: All the guys have better home splits than road splits.

568
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:15,200
Speaker 13: They're trying to cover the entire roulette board. Like if

569
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 13: we placed this guy here and that guy there, that

570
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 13: gives us the best chance to win all five games,

571
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,000
Speaker 13: all you gotta do is win three. And all I'm

572
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,159
Speaker 13: carried about in game one is winning game one. Pitched

573
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 13: the guy who's best to win Game one and Logan

574
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,160
Speaker 13: Gilbert not only had better splits at home. I don't

575
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,119
Speaker 13: care if he had better splits on the road. He

576
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,600
Speaker 13: was friggin dominant at home. You know, one and a

577
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:41,959
Speaker 13: half strikeouts per inning, one point five eight batting average

578
00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:44,280
Speaker 13: against I think a one point five to zero ERA.

579
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 13: Logan Gilbert dominates at home. I wanted to see him

580
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:50,920
Speaker 13: on the mound Saturday. I mean I would have taken

581
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,639
Speaker 13: wu if he was healthy. Right, Logan Gilbert, to me,

582
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:57,359
Speaker 13: was the choice. The biggest home road split in the

583
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,639
Speaker 13: entire staff is Logan Gilbert. I mean, Logan Gilbert's the

584
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,520
Speaker 13: one that has two and a half ERA points between

585
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:05,520
Speaker 13: home and road, and he's the guy that's starting on

586
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,400
Speaker 13: the road, Chuck, So to your point, I mean Gilbert's

587
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 13: at a four seven to four on the road. I

588
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 13: think almost They decided to go with Castile so we

589
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 13: can have the rock at home and he can feed

590
00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 13: off the home crowd because Castile's home road splits aren't

591
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:23,960
Speaker 13: as great as Gilbert's home road splits, which may have

592
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,680
Speaker 13: come as a surprise because we all think, well, Castile's

593
00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 13: no good on the road and he's good at home. Well,

594
00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:31,320
Speaker 13: the splits for Gilbert are even worse. Well, I don't

595
00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:34,080
Speaker 13: mind that Gilbert gets the Game two at all, but

596
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 13: the game one. That guy's starting forty percent of your series, right,

597
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 13: I mean that's one in five. You gotta throw your

598
00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 13: best guy there.

599
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:46,840
Speaker 3: Well, and Castill's pitching Game two obviously, And I mean, look,

600
00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 3: I assume that we're gonna see Gilbert in game three,

601
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:52,480
Speaker 3: Bucky will wait on Brian Wu. Like, how concerned Bucky

602
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:54,879
Speaker 3: are we sitting here right now? How concerned are we

603
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,200
Speaker 3: that Brian Wu may not pitch in this series at all?

604
00:25:57,600 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 9: Well, I mean it's a bummer just considering for him

605
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,400
Speaker 9: first and foremost, and then us as fans, the way

606
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 9: that he competes, the way that he's went out there

607
00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:07,680
Speaker 9: and basically every single game, and you can't say that

608
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:11,400
Speaker 9: about very many people in very many sports. It regardless

609
00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 9: across the board, that just about every single time gives

610
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,879
Speaker 9: you an opportunity to win. That's a bummer. And I

611
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:18,760
Speaker 9: think that he probably would have got the nod. I

612
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:20,200
Speaker 9: think that he would have earned it. I think that

613
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 9: everybody in that clubhouse understands the consistency. But this is

614
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:26,560
Speaker 9: where I think, to some degree, he's gonna be fine,

615
00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:28,719
Speaker 9: And I want them to make sure he's fine, We're

616
00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:30,600
Speaker 9: not rushing him back. If all of a sudden, think

617
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:32,800
Speaker 9: about if you get to go in game five and

618
00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:35,320
Speaker 9: you get arrested, Brian wo that you feel good about now?

619
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:37,639
Speaker 9: That could be going against Derek Scuble. But to me,

620
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:39,560
Speaker 9: that's where I think that they ended up going with

621
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 9: his decision. If the difference between Logan going first and

622
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 9: Kirby going first, they most certainly are going Castillo against

623
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 9: Schooble in game two because he's beat him head to

624
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,159
Speaker 9: head twice before. There's something beyond all the numbers, and

625
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:56,080
Speaker 9: the numbers matter. Data matters, but there's still something about

626
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:59,320
Speaker 9: just the human part of who gets up how and win.

627
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:02,639
Speaker 9: I mean, if I'm measuring the floor versus measuring the ceiling,

628
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 9: I think George Kirby has just as good of a

629
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,160
Speaker 9: chance of going out there and putting having a statement

630
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:08,800
Speaker 9: game as anybody else in this rotation.

631
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:09,480
Speaker 5: Yeah.

632
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:12,720
Speaker 9: Second to maybe Wu if you just take what you

633
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 9: think would happen based on this previous year and the

634
00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 9: thirty plus starts, that these guys went out there and

635
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:18,560
Speaker 9: had well.

636
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:19,639
Speaker 4: Check a couple of guys to keep an eye on

637
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 4: tomorrow for the Tigers.

638
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 3: Kerry Carpenter's four for eight with four bombs off of

639
00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:26,359
Speaker 3: George Kirby, by the way, lifetime right field in Detroit,

640
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:29,320
Speaker 3: the laboratorre has four for nine eight for seventeen combined.

641
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:31,200
Speaker 3: Those two guys are and expect both of them in

642
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 3: the lineup tomorrow for Detroit. But somebody said, hey, it

643
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:35,840
Speaker 3: doesn't matter, just win the game. Well, if George Kirby

644
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 3: gets his yits lit up and the Mariners blow through

645
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,760
Speaker 3: their bullpen tomorrow and they have to burn through the

646
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:44,080
Speaker 3: pen even if they win, what does that do for

647
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,360
Speaker 3: you setting yourself up for Game two and three down

648
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 3: the road.

649
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:50,439
Speaker 5: Well, that's just said. I love George's upside.

650
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 13: I think he's the most talented guy in the organization,

651
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:56,640
Speaker 13: most talented pitcher in the organization. That said, I also

652
00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:59,879
Speaker 13: have seen George, who I like a lot personally too,

653
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:03,000
Speaker 13: pout on the mound and and you can't have that

654
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 13: in the playoffs. I mean, a guy bobbles the ball

655
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:07,639
Speaker 13: at second base, I can't let you. I can't have

656
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 13: you given up four runs shaking your head on the mound,

657
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,040
Speaker 13: not backing up third base. I mean, he's had a

658
00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:14,920
Speaker 13: tendency to do that, so to Buggy's point. I mean, yeah,

659
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 13: he's got as good a chance to go out there

660
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:20,160
Speaker 13: and not give the Tigers a chance on Saturday night.

661
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:24,440
Speaker 13: But I also talk about floor Logan is just good

662
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:28,159
Speaker 13: every single start at home. I mean it's I just

663
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:31,440
Speaker 13: don't understand why that's not the logical choice here to

664
00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:32,200
Speaker 13: go in nay one.

665
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:34,120
Speaker 3: Well, let's kind of break. We'll come back with more.

666
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:38,720
Speaker 3: Our Mariner round table continues. Half the guys are at Jimmy's.

667
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,720
Speaker 3: Half the guys are at snow Kwami Casino. Next on

668
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 3: ninety three to three KJRFM.

669
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 2: Now back to our playoffs Baseball round Table.

670
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 10: There is nothing like postseason baseball, brought.

671
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:53,200
Speaker 1: To you by closest sports book, Snow call Me Casino

672

Speaker 1: ten shrikeouts, one long run, seven trow.

674
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:07,440
Speaker 14: You know, through a bullpen today, and we'll take a

675
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:09,800
Speaker 14: look at how he kind of responds tomorrow and and

676
00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 14: make our final decisions as we get a little bit closer.

677
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,560
Speaker 14: So still a little bit of an unknown, but you know,

678
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:18,200
Speaker 14: obviously wanting to weigh several factors. They're not trying to

679
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 14: push him too quickly, all.

680
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,440
Speaker 3: Right, Dan Wilson with us yesterday on the radio show.

681
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 3: From Team Mobile, Ian Chuck Dick rejoining us here o

682
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:28,600
Speaker 3: Marin arond table continues. Half the Crew from Jimmy's, Half

683
00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:31,520
Speaker 3: the crew from Still Kwame because Cino, our official Major

684
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 3: League Baseball Mariners playoff coverage sponsor, Chuck will start with

685
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 3: you on the the Brian Wu thing. I mean, you

686
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:40,320
Speaker 3: hear what Dan Wilson said yesterday on the radio show,

687
00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 3: and I don't know when a guy's like, I don't know,

688
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:44,000
Speaker 3: you know, what's gonna go on with this guy, that

689
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 3: doesn't exactly, you know, make you feel great that Brian

690
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,800
Speaker 3: Wo's gonna even pitch at all in this series.

691
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 5: I bet your thoughts on.

692
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:52,680
Speaker 13: Him, and I'm not getting a very good feeling about it.

693
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 13: And that's highly disappointing. I mean, I think he's just

694
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:58,320
Speaker 13: such a bulldog and he has been as big a

695
00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:01,280
Speaker 13: reason why this team won the Vision as anybody not

696
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:04,600
Speaker 13: named Kyl Rawley this season, and so.

697
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:05,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's very disappointing.

698
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 13: And man, just seeing his body language trying to answer

699
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,280
Speaker 13: questions in the dugout the other day, he did not

700
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:13,800
Speaker 13: look like he was going to pitch this series. And

701
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:17,600
Speaker 13: so that's yeah, that's highly disappointing. I think Bryce can

702
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:20,719
Speaker 13: get the job done, but Bryce has certainly not had

703
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:22,840
Speaker 13: the season Brian Wu's head, so that's a drop off.

704
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:23,840
Speaker 2: Ian.

705
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think the the thing that that jumps out

706
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,720
Speaker 8: at you is this is this is why everyone has

707
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:33,000
Speaker 8: thought so highly of this team for the last couple

708
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:36,400
Speaker 8: of years, is because unfortunately, you're gonna have to lean

709
00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:39,200
Speaker 8: into what you have better than maybe anybody in baseball

710
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:41,719
Speaker 8: outside of maybe Philadelphia. Right is the depth of your

711
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 8: pitching staff you're starting start, you know, like the beautiful

712
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,640
Speaker 8: thing about where they're at now, it's almost like a

713
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,680
Speaker 8: kind of a double edged sword. Short series. You can

714
00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 8: see an upset, but but short series, you don't need

715
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 8: five guys. You don't need four guys. You need three guys,

716
00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:00,160
Speaker 8: well one, two, and three. But I'm like, I'm it's

717
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 8: in the first segment today. I'm a Wu fan, man,

718
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 8: I just like, if I'm looking at you know, my

719
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 8: favorite Mariner players of all time outside of Bucky Jacobson

720
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:13,720
Speaker 8: A given the pride to Hermiston outside of him. Uh No,

721
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:15,640
Speaker 8: I mean, like I go back, I mean I remember,

722
00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:17,600
Speaker 8: you know, I mean Bob Stintson, the first catcher. I

723
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:19,360
Speaker 8: was a catcher in in you know, Little League. I

724
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:21,800
Speaker 8: remember like guys like that. I am so damn old.

725
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:25,520
Speaker 8: I know Dave, Oh yeah, well I liked him just

726
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:28,520
Speaker 8: because of his build. But yeah no, I mean I

727
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 8: love Wunaylor's my face. I just love Naylor like I

728
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 8: just like a guy that just doesn't you know, he

729
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:35,720
Speaker 8: just wants to kill people. I like that he looks

730
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,000
Speaker 8: like he's a Canadian, looks like a hockey player, probably

731
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,400
Speaker 8: probably pissed he's not playing hockey right now. But but

732
00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 8: Wu has that attitude man, And so that is a bummer.

733
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 8: Because Chuck said it well in the last segment. The

734
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:48,480
Speaker 8: thing with Kirby is maybe what the best stuff like,

735
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:51,880
Speaker 8: like as good as there is talent. But but we

736
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:53,920
Speaker 8: all know with pitching, it's not just that. It's the

737
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:54,400
Speaker 8: between the.

738
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 7: Ears, and we've seen that with Wu this year. You

739
00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:57,720
Speaker 7: watch Wu on the mound.

740
00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,720
Speaker 8: I I couldn't hit a curveball eighth grade, so I'd

741
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 8: never played baseball again after that. But like, I gotta

742
00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:06,920
Speaker 8: think as a hitter, you see Brian Wu, you don't

743
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 8: like that man, that guy. That guy has no fun.

744
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:12,400
Speaker 8: Top Rail love to have Brian Wu. But we haven't

745
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:14,360
Speaker 8: seen him pitch in the playoffs before. We've seen these

746
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:16,080
Speaker 8: other three pitch, and I like what I see from

747
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 8: all three of these other guys. But to Ian's point

748
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 8: on the depth of the.

749
00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 13: Rotation, look who Detroit is starting in game number one,

750
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:26,560
Speaker 13: a reliever who the last time he picked up a

751
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 13: baseball was two days ago, and he gave up four runs,

752
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:32,960
Speaker 13: including a home run in a third of an inning

753
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,200
Speaker 13: out of the pen. Yeah, that is who's stepping on

754
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:38,719
Speaker 13: the mound in inning number one against George Kirby at

755
00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:39,560
Speaker 13: t Mobile Park.

756
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 4: You gotta win that baseball.

757
00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:42,360
Speaker 5: I'm glad, I'm at a casino.

758
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:43,160
Speaker 7: I'm gonna go to sports.

759
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:45,280
Speaker 3: But that well, and you know, Chuck, for me, it's

760
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 3: kind of symbolic because you know, I was talking to

761
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:49,560
Speaker 3: Mark off the air about that, like that's almost border

762
00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:52,280
Speaker 3: on embarrassing for me, Like, have a rotation, for god's sakes,

763
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:55,240
Speaker 3: have a rotation that you can count on come playoff time.

764
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:57,760
Speaker 3: And the Tigers just really don't have one right now.

765
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:00,720
Speaker 3: I mean, how how symbolic is it that you're talking

766
00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:02,760
Speaker 3: about a baseball team that's coming in here.

767
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:05,200
Speaker 4: First of all, they've won like four games in.

768
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 3: The last two and a half weeks the Tigers have

769
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:09,440
Speaker 3: and they pop champagne after two of them.

770
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 5: One of them was a division champions and the other

771
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:13,360
Speaker 5: one was when they.

772
00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:14,680
Speaker 4: Beat the Guardians the other day.

773
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:17,560
Speaker 3: Right, So, and they're starting a reliever in a bullpen

774
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,360
Speaker 3: day and game in the biggest game of the year.

775
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:23,520
Speaker 4: It's almost like, man, you can't lose to that team.

776
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:28,320
Speaker 13: Chuck Well, it's interesting though, I mean, because I don't

777
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:30,600
Speaker 13: think we give enough credit to the Mariners for this reason,

778
00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:33,800
Speaker 13: because of how healthy they keep their pitchers. I mean,

779
00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:36,040
Speaker 13: this has been several years towards the end of the

780
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:39,520
Speaker 13: year that we've typically got all five guys healthy. I mean,

781
00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:43,120
Speaker 13: that doesn't happen in other organizations. The Los Angeles Dodgers

782
00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:45,520
Speaker 13: just a year ago and their most important game in

783
00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:48,560
Speaker 13: the in the divisional round or was it the Wildcard

784
00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:52,600
Speaker 13: round against the San Diego Padres, must win situation. They

785
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,760
Speaker 13: don't have a starting pitcher, they have to use their

786
00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:57,680
Speaker 13: entire they have to do a bullpen game. And then

787
00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,560
Speaker 13: somehow magically it worked and it was the biggest game

788
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:03,040
Speaker 13: of their entire postseason push because they went from there

789
00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:06,320
Speaker 13: on the ropes to winning the World Series. The Boston

790
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,480
Speaker 13: Red Sox and the New York Yankees both had to

791
00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:12,200
Speaker 13: go in Game three of the wild Card round. Connley

792
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 13: early two career starts. He looked like he was nine

793
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,520
Speaker 13: years old for the Boston Red Sox the other day.

794
00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:21,120
Speaker 13: You just don't see organizations getting through the season and

795
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,640
Speaker 13: getting till this time of the year with four or

796
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:27,520
Speaker 13: five healthy starting pitchers, But the Mariners typically get that done.

797
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:29,279
Speaker 13: If not for Wu, we would have done it again

798
00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:32,640
Speaker 13: this season. So yeah, I think it's definitely a game

799
00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:34,759
Speaker 13: you circle, you gotta win. You got to think about

800
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,440
Speaker 13: that schoobl guy. He's gonna start forty percent of these

801
00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:41,680
Speaker 13: games and he's just absolutely dominant. At times he might

802
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:44,279
Speaker 13: not even let you up off the mat. So yeah,

803
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 13: I think game number one is always the most important

804
00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,120
Speaker 13: game of any series, and it's definitely going to be

805
00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:49,640
Speaker 13: in this one.

806
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:51,680
Speaker 3: Oh let's get Bucky back in here, we get Mark

00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:11,319
Speaker 13: we're in, Bucky and I we're slow dancing together, cheek

859
00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:13,240
Speaker 13: to check to the this week in baseball.

860
00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:15,879
Speaker 3: Yeah song that I saw you by the way, I've

861
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:18,440
Speaker 3: got video, Yeah, I want to peek that out.

862
00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:23,080
Speaker 4: Ye hi everybody, I'm Malowen, all right, So look, it's

863
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:23,520
Speaker 4: the year.

864
00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:26,359
Speaker 13: Of cal I bet I'm not gonna pick something as

865
00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:29,480
Speaker 13: boring as the you know, the league MVP. As as

866
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:33,480
Speaker 13: my wildcard hero that you're looking for, I really think

867
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:38,040
Speaker 13: Randy or Rose arena Is is the ultimate wildcard X

868
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:41,960
Speaker 13: factor in this entire postseason. First of all, he's had

869
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:45,080
Speaker 13: one of the greatest postseasons individually I've ever seen for

870
00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:49,000
Speaker 13: one year, and yet he's also been cold throughout the

871
00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:52,800
Speaker 13: month of September. Sometimes when the lights get turned on,

872
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 13: Randy gets a little turned on and he makes silly

873
00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:58,839
Speaker 13: decisions out on the baseball field. So that makes him

874
00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:01,760
Speaker 13: a little bit of a wildcar. But if he's focused

875
00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,319
Speaker 13: and he gets off to a good start Saturday night.

876
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:06,919
Speaker 13: I mean, you have a chance to ride. And Randy

877
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:10,040
Speaker 13: Rose Arena can carry an offense. We've seen him do

878
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:12,399
Speaker 13: it in the postseason in the past, so I think

879
00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:15,280
Speaker 13: he's a wild card. And I also think that Gino Suarez.

880
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:18,839
Speaker 13: If Gino Suarez can get on a tear, he can

881
00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:20,120
Speaker 13: also carry this offense.

882
00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:20,920
Speaker 2: Well, here's the thing.

883
00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:23,279
Speaker 3: Mark's with us, and he's been here for the last

884
00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:25,760
Speaker 3: thirty minutes, and you mentioned you and Bucky slow dancing

885
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:28,400
Speaker 3: Chuck Marks meds are starting to wear off. He's starting

886
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:31,720
Speaker 3: to bounce around. Jimmy's like like like a wild caban.

887
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:33,560
Speaker 3: She just jumping at the bit to get back on

888
00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:36,960
Speaker 3: the air and share his thoughts. So Mariners win this thing,

889
00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:39,880
Speaker 3: whether in three, four or five next Friday.

890
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:41,400
Speaker 5: Who's the hero gonna be?

891
00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:45,320
Speaker 6: I said at the beginning last hour, and Chuck just

892
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:47,480
Speaker 6: took it all away. And Randy Rose Raigne and a

893
00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:48,760
Speaker 6: guy had ten home runs.

894
00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:49,600
Speaker 4: Sam you Chuck.

895
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:54,040
Speaker 6: In the twenty twenty postseason, he had a OPS. So

896
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:58,239
Speaker 6: twelve seventy three, I don't know, babe, Ruth or Louke

897
00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 6: Garrig had an OPS ever in the postseason of twelve

898
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:04,360
Speaker 6: seventy three, and I just think the guy, you know what,

899
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:07,239
Speaker 6: he's just one of those fearless guys that comes up

900
00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:10,000
Speaker 6: and I think he's gonna lead this team, and I

901
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:12,399
Speaker 6: think he will be that guy that can lead this team.

902
00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:12,600
Speaker 4: Now.

903
00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:16,600
Speaker 6: Obviously, a guy that has been unbelievable since Jerry Depoto

904
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:19,120
Speaker 6: acquired him has been Josh Naylor. That's right, And and

905
00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:22,200
Speaker 6: Josh Naylor, what can you say? And I feel if

906
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:25,040
Speaker 6: the Mariners are able to win the World Series, it's

907
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:26,600
Speaker 6: gonna be because of Josh Naylor.

908
00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:29,080
Speaker 4: But in this particular series, I'm gonna go with Randy

909
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:32,839
Speaker 4: rose Arena. He's that guy. He just doesn't he he has.

910
00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 6: I remember in Boston at the time when they always

911
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:38,719
Speaker 6: say Manny being Manny, right, and not that he's like that,

912
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:41,239
Speaker 6: because Manny was on a on a different planet. But

913
00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 6: sometimes in what Chuck kind of alluded to this there,

914
00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:49,040
Speaker 6: sometimes Randy's being Randy okay, And I if we could

915
00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:51,840
Speaker 6: get that good part, Chuck, then we're gonna see this

916
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,680
Speaker 6: guy delivered the way he did for the Rays, leading

917
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:57,239
Speaker 6: them to the World Series in twenty twenty, before they

918
00:39:57,520 --> 00:39:58,720
Speaker 6: of course bowed down.

919
00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:01,120
Speaker 4: To the Dodgers because the Dodgers at the payroll in baseball.

920
00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:03,640
Speaker 6: But I'm with Chuck on that, and I think Grandy

921
00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:05,760
Speaker 6: rose Arena is the X factor in this series.

922
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,399
Speaker 3: Well, Bucky, I gotta be honest with you, I'm kind

923
00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:10,680
Speaker 3: of hoping it's Julio Rodriguez just so you can go

924
00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 3: on Twitter and tell everyone how stupid they were for

925
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 3: doubting forty four at the start of the year, which

926
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:19,040
Speaker 3: has kind of become your thing. Right, If anyone's gonna

927
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:21,959
Speaker 3: hammer the fan base for doubting Julio, it's probably gonna

928
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:25,000
Speaker 3: be Bucky Jacobson. Right, there's no question about that. But

929
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:28,000
Speaker 3: this guy's got a nine hundred ops in the second

930
00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:29,879
Speaker 3: half of the year after a set. I mean he's

931
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 3: doing what he usually does, right, Bucky starts off slow

932
00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:35,080
Speaker 3: and then gets white hot in the second half.

933
00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:35,560
Speaker 5: Yeah.

934
00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:38,120
Speaker 9: Well, I mean it is pretty easy to hammer the

935
00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:40,840
Speaker 9: fan base when twelve baby's into a season. They're like,

936
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:43,080
Speaker 9: this guy's a bust. I mean, he's doing things that

937
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:44,920
Speaker 9: we haven't seen anybody do. When it comes to the

938
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,520
Speaker 9: question of who's going to be the hero. The beautiful part,

939
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:49,959
Speaker 9: the thing that I think makes every Mariner fan feel

940
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:53,440
Speaker 9: good is it could be any one of nine guys

941
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:56,920
Speaker 9: on any given day, who's the guy that could take

942
00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,960
Speaker 9: over Randy Roserena has done it, So that's a correct answer.

943
00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:02,760
Speaker 9: Cal Rawley has been one of the more clutch guys

944
00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:05,319
Speaker 9: in Major League Baseball period. If we if people want

945
00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:07,960
Speaker 9: to argue about Judge and cal Rawley, look up their

946
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,920
Speaker 9: stats in late and close games. There's it's not even

947
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:13,720
Speaker 9: a comparison of who's who's had more of an impact.

948
00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:17,000
Speaker 9: I think that Josh Naylor brings the grit that is

949
00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:19,480
Speaker 9: that plays. That's what plays when the when the lights

950
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 9: of the brightest, when the pressure gets the most, is

951
00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:24,239
Speaker 9: the more mentally tough person is the person that does that.

952
00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:25,360
Speaker 5: I think he has that.

953
00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:27,880
Speaker 9: I think Polonko has it. Even though last year was

954
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:30,080
Speaker 9: a bad year, He's right up there with the rest

955
00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:32,239
Speaker 9: of the with the cal Rawley's as far as the

956
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:35,640
Speaker 9: numbers he's put up in high pressure situations. So to me,

957
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:37,200
Speaker 9: there isn't really a whole heck of a lot of

958
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:40,080
Speaker 9: wrong answers. This is gonna be one where cal Rawley's

959
00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:42,759
Speaker 9: going to they're gonna be careful with cal cal They're

960
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:44,719
Speaker 9: going to they're gonna be careful. That doesn't mean they're

961
00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:46,640
Speaker 9: not gonna make a mistake. He's got to hammer the

962
00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:48,920
Speaker 9: mistakes when he gets one. I think they're gonna try

963
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:51,640
Speaker 9: to be careful with Julio as well. And so we've

964
00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:53,520
Speaker 9: seen him in the in the first half of just

965
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:56,000
Speaker 9: about every single season, come out of the zone, wanting

966
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:57,440
Speaker 9: to get off to a good start, wants to go

967
00:41:57,480 --> 00:41:59,640
Speaker 9: out there and help pick up the team, and presses

968
00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:02,480
Speaker 9: a little too much. The beautiful thing about the postseason,

969
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,200
Speaker 9: it's in the second half of the season. So I mean,

970
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:07,040
Speaker 9: I if I say who who I think has the

971
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:10,360
Speaker 9: best chance of carrying this team, I'd say it probably

972
00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:11,360
Speaker 9: is Julio Rodriguez.

973
00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:13,960
Speaker 3: Well, the year of Cal, Chuck, I'm with you, and

974
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:16,800
Speaker 3: all I want is for Col just to be naughty

975
00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:17,640
Speaker 3: cow this season.

976
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 9: Naughty cow.

977
00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:22,320
Speaker 3: I want to see a naughty naughty boy this series

978
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:25,800
Speaker 3: against the Tigers. Just destroy that pitching staff and it's.

979
00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:28,839
Speaker 13: Like more a magical year. Do you know that he's

980
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:31,920
Speaker 13: not done writing this story this year? I mean every

981
00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:34,719
Speaker 13: it's the year of Col. I mean, there are heroics

982
00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:36,320
Speaker 13: on the horizon, so we can come up with a

983
00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:39,960
Speaker 13: cute answer, but I mean Cal Rawley is your heavy

984
00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:41,280
Speaker 13: favorite to be the hero.

985
00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:42,600
Speaker 4: No question about it.

986
00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:44,719
Speaker 6: And to what you guys are saying about Julio, and

987
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:47,680
Speaker 6: he has been often criticized and and Bucky has stuck

988
00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:50,239
Speaker 6: with him, no doubt about it all season long. When

989
00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,120
Speaker 6: I was calling him the out, Bucky's like, hey man,

990
00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:55,040
Speaker 6: it's early and and he did improve to everybody. But

991
00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:58,319
Speaker 6: now's the point where you guys talked about guys who

992
00:42:58,360 --> 00:43:00,759
Speaker 6: have come up short in the post and big in

993
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:04,600
Speaker 6: the postseason. You look at Andy Pettitt, Kurt Shilling, guys

994
00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:09,360
Speaker 6: that come up David Freese with Saint Louis in twenty eleven.

995
00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:13,600
Speaker 3: Borders run an MVP of the World Series, Pat Borders exactly.

996
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 4: So that's what I'm talking about, and like, I want

997
00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:16,280
Speaker 4: to see Julio.

998
00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:19,440
Speaker 6: Julio has a chance because you obviously know Cal became

999
00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:24,000
Speaker 6: the biggest transcendent star in the city this season. Now

1000
00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:27,239
Speaker 6: it's time for Julio to show with all his five

1001
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:30,120
Speaker 6: tool ability he can do it in the postseason. Because

1002
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:32,839
Speaker 6: I'll tell you all the people in that second half

1003
00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:35,719
Speaker 6: where we all ate crow bro as I like to say,

1004
00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:39,400
Speaker 6: including yours truly, if he doesn't come through in the postseason, softy,

1005
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:42,359
Speaker 6: guess what we're gonna do say what's up, Julio, Well,

1006
00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:45,160
Speaker 6: some people will for sure, and look, I mean more

1007
00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:46,000
Speaker 6: often than not, Chuck.

1008
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:48,239
Speaker 3: As you know, these are bullpen battles, right, you know

1009
00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:50,719
Speaker 3: in the playoffs where these are generally closer games and

1010
00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:52,040
Speaker 3: you got to find a way to get through it

1011
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:56,520
Speaker 3: with the bullpen. The Mariners have I think the edge

1012
00:43:56,680 --> 00:44:00,440
Speaker 3: personally when it comes to their bullpen versus Detroit Tigers

1013
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,560
Speaker 3: do not have an Andres Munos whatsoever? I mean, am

1014
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:05,759
Speaker 3: I crazy saying that a fifth thing comes down to

1015
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:08,640
Speaker 3: the later innings with a one runner a tie game.

1016
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:11,759
Speaker 5: I like the m's chances. No, that's not crazy at all.

1017
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:13,239
Speaker 13: I don't think they have the best ball, but I

1018
00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:15,239
Speaker 13: don't even think they have their best bullpen that they've

1019
00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:17,399
Speaker 13: had over the course of the last three or four years.

1020
00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:19,520
Speaker 13: But I should think it can get the job done.

1021
00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:22,799
Speaker 13: I think Caleb Ferguson is going to be really big

1022
00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:23,799
Speaker 13: in this Tiger Sera.

1023
00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:25,560
Speaker 5: Why do you say that? By the way, Well, they

1024
00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:26,920
Speaker 5: have two hitters.

1025
00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:29,719
Speaker 13: Kerry Carpenter who's ruined us and every time he's played us,

1026
00:44:29,719 --> 00:44:32,640
Speaker 13: and Riley Green, who's their best hitter. They're both left handed,

1027
00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:35,279
Speaker 13: but they all both have really struggled against lefties. Riley

1028
00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:38,560
Speaker 13: Green's struggled so much against lefties lately. They pinch hit

1029
00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:40,560
Speaker 13: for him in the middle of a Game two of

1030
00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,279
Speaker 13: the wild Card against the Guardians because they brought a

1031
00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:46,160
Speaker 13: lefti in out of the pen. So if you have

1032
00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:48,640
Speaker 13: two lefties now, you might be able to throw a

1033
00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:50,839
Speaker 13: Ferguson in there in the sixth then get Riley Green

1034
00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:53,279
Speaker 13: out of the damn game or a Kerry Carpenter out

1035
00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:55,360
Speaker 13: of the damn game, and then you still have Spire

1036
00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:58,120
Speaker 13: to go to later on in the contest. So I

1037
00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:01,040
Speaker 13: think that could play a big role. Bullpen plays a

1038
00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:05,880
Speaker 13: huge role at this time of the year, and Detroit

1039
00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:09,359
Speaker 13: says probably, I think everybody, every Tiger fan would fan

1040
00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:12,160
Speaker 13: would say they've they've failed them. They were as big

1041
00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:14,800
Speaker 13: a part of why they collapsed down the stretch did anything.

1042
00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:17,520
Speaker 13: I mean, Will Vest is their best guy, and Will

1043
00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:21,000
Speaker 13: Best couldn't even make our bullpen if you remember.

1044
00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:22,480
Speaker 5: So, and he's had a very good year.

1045
00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:25,160
Speaker 13: But I think we've got a stark advantage in the

1046
00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:27,920
Speaker 13: bullpen and it is a huge part of winning in

1047
00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:28,400
Speaker 13: the playoff.

1048
00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:30,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, Mark wighing on that, and then Bucky you followed

1049
00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:33,239
Speaker 4: up go ahead, Oh listen, what you know what Chuck says, right,

1050
00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:35,080
Speaker 4: the bullpen's going to be huge. It always in.

1051
00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:37,120
Speaker 6: It's going to be huge for Detroit tomorrow because they're

1052
00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:39,640
Speaker 6: starting a guy out of the bullpen. I have a

1053
00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:41,719
Speaker 6: question call Chuck and Buck and I want to ask

1054
00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:43,200
Speaker 6: you guys whatever answers first?

1055
00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:44,000
Speaker 5: Is that a J.

1056
00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:44,439
Speaker 4: Hinch.

1057
00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:46,440
Speaker 6: Here's a guy who's won it. He's won it in

1058
00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:50,040
Speaker 6: twenty seventeen with the Houston Astros. We all know what happened.

1059
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:51,960
Speaker 6: He got suspended a couple of years later, and then

1060
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:54,280
Speaker 6: he was out of a job and he resurfaced in Detroit.

1061
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:56,800
Speaker 4: He was part of the quote trash cans and that

1062
00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:57,319
Speaker 4: whole thing.

1063
00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:00,360
Speaker 6: How much of an advantage do you believe if a

1064
00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:04,320
Speaker 6: guy with a World Series ring, who has managed a

1065
00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:08,279
Speaker 6: team to win it all has over what technically is

1066
00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:12,040
Speaker 6: a guy completing his first rookie season as a manager.

1067
00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:14,080
Speaker 3: Hey, guys, let me just jumping for a quick second.

1068
00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:16,480
Speaker 3: Starting to rupt, But Tessa Miller did call back. By

1069
00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:20,759
Speaker 3: the way, Testa's gonna win the tickets for Sunday sees

1070
00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:24,680
Speaker 3: and Sunday Nights Mariner game a Kings dot Com. You

1071
00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:28,080
Speaker 3: can also expect a tax form for about fifty thousand

1072
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:30,759
Speaker 3: dollars that you got to pay for those tickets that

1073
00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:33,359
Speaker 3: you won from Benua Kings. So congrats to Tessa who

1074
00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:35,640
Speaker 3: wins those tickets. So Bucky, why do you chime in

1075
00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:37,760
Speaker 3: with that the aj Hinch factor go ahead?

1076
00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:41,040
Speaker 9: Well, I mean their experience helps, There's no doubt about it.

1077
00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:43,759
Speaker 9: It doesn't guarantee anything. I mean, experience lead you down

1078
00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:46,640
Speaker 9: a path of I've made this decision before, I feel

1079
00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:49,560
Speaker 9: better about it. Doesn't matter though. The guy that goes

1080
00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:51,840
Speaker 9: up there has to then make you look good or

1081
00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:53,880
Speaker 9: they end up making you look bad. The guy you

1082
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:55,960
Speaker 9: bring in and take the ball away from somebody else,

1083
00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:58,279
Speaker 9: he's got to go in there and shove more than

1084
00:46:58,360 --> 00:47:01,440
Speaker 9: he then he goes out there and finds barrels. I

1085
00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:03,879
Speaker 9: think there's something to it now. I think it's less now.

1086
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:07,879
Speaker 9: I think the data driven decisions that are made take

1087
00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:09,440
Speaker 9: a little bit of the gut feel out of it.

1088
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:09,759
Speaker 11: Now.

1089
00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:14,200
Speaker 9: I think every single manager has still some gut feel

1090
00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:16,480
Speaker 9: that they go by. I don't know where what the

1091
00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:18,840
Speaker 9: degree of that is. With Dan Wilson, I have a

1092
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:21,440
Speaker 9: feeling that he has more of a plan as to

1093
00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:23,759
Speaker 9: what goes on and then if the thing comes off

1094
00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:25,839
Speaker 9: the rails, then you make a decision. If the thing

1095
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:28,520
Speaker 9: stays on the rails, it's a matter of Okay, which

1096
00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:30,600
Speaker 9: pitch do I go out there between? Or which batter

1097
00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:32,440
Speaker 9: do I go out there between? And a lot of

1098
00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:35,680
Speaker 9: times that's set in stone based on well, we're gonna wait,

1099
00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:37,920
Speaker 9: this is his last one, the next lefty, then we're

1100
00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:40,040
Speaker 9: gonna bring Gabe Spier in for that guy, or if

1101
00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:43,360
Speaker 9: it's in the fifth inning, we're gonna bring Caleb Ferguson

1102
00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:45,520
Speaker 9: in to face that lefty because we'll save Gabe for

1103
00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:47,680
Speaker 9: a bigger time or a time that maybe has a

1104
00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:50,080
Speaker 9: little bit more leverage later on in the game. So

1105
00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:53,319
Speaker 9: I mean, is it an advantage, sure, I mean I'd

1106
00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:56,400
Speaker 9: always rather have somebody that's been there, that's done that before.

1107
00:47:56,680 --> 00:47:59,040
Speaker 9: But it doesn't mean, oh you've been there and done

1108
00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:01,240
Speaker 9: that that you're guaranteed you're going to make the right decision.

1109
00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:02,839
Speaker 9: It's all based on the guys that get out there

1110
00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:03,160
Speaker 9: and do it.

1111
00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:07,480
Speaker 3: Chuck, Chuck will be a very move that Stella, by

1112
00:48:07,520 --> 00:48:09,080
Speaker 3: the way, because it's making my mouth water.

1113
00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:09,799
Speaker 5: That's rich.

1114
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:15,160
Speaker 16: That's richest Stella in the middle broadcast. I'm not going

1115
00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:18,439
Speaker 16: to put yourself together, got run some numbers or something.

1116
00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:20,480
Speaker 16: For God's sakes, But Chuck Wayne on that go ahead.

1117
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:23,080
Speaker 13: I was just gonna say, I find that managers that

1118
00:48:23,120 --> 00:48:25,640
Speaker 13: get away with cheating have a really big advantage over

1119
00:48:25,719 --> 00:48:32,800
Speaker 13: man Yeah, I look, I think it is a factor.

1120
00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:35,200
Speaker 13: I on think I think Bucky answered it well. I

1121
00:48:35,239 --> 00:48:37,560
Speaker 13: don't think it's some huge factor. But if you know,

1122
00:48:37,640 --> 00:48:39,279
Speaker 13: if I'm giving a check, Mark, I'm gonna give it

1123
00:48:39,320 --> 00:48:43,680
Speaker 13: to Hinch over Dan. I'm from an experienced standpoint, and look,

1124
00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:46,520
Speaker 13: I know everybody says about baseball that the game moves

1125
00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:50,120
Speaker 13: so slowly. Now when you're making decisions in a playoff

1126
00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:52,800
Speaker 13: game and you're the manager, it comes at you really fast.

1127
00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:54,960
Speaker 13: And I think Dan struggled a little bit with the

1128
00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:56,879
Speaker 13: speed of the game at the beginning of the year.

1129
00:48:57,000 --> 00:48:59,440
Speaker 13: And I do worry a little bit that now that

1130
00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:01,000
Speaker 13: the playoff off, that pace quickens.

1131
00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:03,160
Speaker 5: Those decisions have to be faster.

1132
00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:07,560
Speaker 13: You know, I'm a little worried about that for him,

1133
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:09,680
Speaker 13: But I don't think it's gonna get in the way

1134
00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:11,120
Speaker 13: of us defeating the typer.

1135
00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:11,279
Speaker 8: No.

1136
00:49:11,320 --> 00:49:12,800
Speaker 3: I agree with that, And I also just kind of

1137
00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:14,320
Speaker 3: want to go back to something Mark said Bucky a

1138
00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:16,520
Speaker 3: while back, he said playoff success, and I think we

1139
00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:18,399
Speaker 3: meant by that, and is making a run a deep

1140
00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:19,680
Speaker 3: run World Series whatever?

1141
00:49:20,120 --> 00:49:20,360
Speaker 2: To me?

1142
00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:22,880
Speaker 3: I don't know if that really matters, that these guys

1143
00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:27,080
Speaker 3: don't have that long sustained history of you know, League Championship,

1144
00:49:27,560 --> 00:49:30,200
Speaker 3: World Series. I think just being there Bucky in the

1145
00:49:30,320 --> 00:49:33,799
Speaker 3: moment and seeing the spotlight and what it entails back

1146
00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:35,160
Speaker 3: in twenty two is.

1147
00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:35,719
Speaker 5: A big deal.

1148
00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:37,400
Speaker 3: And look, I'm not trying to compare me as a

1149
00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:39,799
Speaker 3: fifty two year old guy to some twenty five year

1150
00:49:39,800 --> 00:49:42,000
Speaker 3: old kid playing in the playoffs. But when you're first

1151
00:49:42,040 --> 00:49:43,880
Speaker 3: playing a golf tournament, right, you're kind of peeking down

1152
00:49:43,920 --> 00:49:45,680
Speaker 3: your leg. Then you do it again, You're like, hey,

1153
00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:47,880
Speaker 3: where's the cart girl whatever? Nobody gives it, damn. But

1154
00:49:48,239 --> 00:49:51,480
Speaker 3: those guys have experience from three years ago. They've been there,

1155
00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:54,080
Speaker 3: they know what the bright lights are all about. I

1156
00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:56,319
Speaker 3: don't think the fact that they've never made a run

1157
00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:58,239
Speaker 3: per se Bucky is that big a deal.

1158
00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:00,560
Speaker 9: I don't think so either, And ultimately I don't think

1159
00:50:00,640 --> 00:50:04,200
Speaker 9: it's going to be an issue necessarily for Dan Wilson either. Again,

1160
00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:07,479
Speaker 9: there's gonna be probably decisions that work and some that don't.

1161
00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:10,640
Speaker 9: Hopefully way more that work than the the inverse. But

1162
00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:13,359
Speaker 9: I do think that he's you know, this is a guy.

1163
00:50:13,520 --> 00:50:15,120
Speaker 9: You can't be a catcher for as long as he

1164
00:50:15,239 --> 00:50:17,239
Speaker 9: was in the big leagues and then be around the

1165
00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:19,240
Speaker 9: game for as long as he's been since he retired

1166
00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:22,600
Speaker 9: and not have been probably being an armchair manager for

1167
00:50:22,640 --> 00:50:24,720
Speaker 9: a lot of time. Now you have to make those decisions.

1168
00:50:24,760 --> 00:50:26,440
Speaker 9: You have to figure out when you're gonna pull the

1169
00:50:26,480 --> 00:50:30,080
Speaker 9: plug on somebody, and ultimately those things hopefully they work out.

1170
00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:32,600
Speaker 9: I mean, I think that the idea of when it

1171
00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:36,080
Speaker 9: comes to experience to get in there your first time,

1172
00:50:36,200 --> 00:50:39,200
Speaker 9: that the golf tournament analogy is a great one because

1173
00:50:39,239 --> 00:50:41,560
Speaker 9: yet when all of a sudden there's something on the line,

1174
00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:43,959
Speaker 9: and usually you play and there's nothing on the line,

1175
00:50:44,280 --> 00:50:47,320
Speaker 9: or it's minimal in comparison to what you're feeling, pressure

1176
00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:50,560
Speaker 9: going right, Yeah, one hundred percent if you end up

1177
00:50:50,680 --> 00:50:53,400
Speaker 9: figuring out, Okay, I know what this feels like. Now

1178
00:50:53,520 --> 00:50:55,840
Speaker 9: that the nucleus of this team knows what it feels like,

1179
00:50:56,239 --> 00:50:58,719
Speaker 9: the additions to this team knows what it feels like.

1180
00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:01,480
Speaker 9: And the beautiful thing is that they've had now, you know,

1181
00:51:01,640 --> 00:51:04,040
Speaker 9: eighty games or so to kind of figure out together,

1182
00:51:04,520 --> 00:51:06,840
Speaker 9: do we have to put that undue pressure on ourselves

1183
00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:07,719
Speaker 9: on any giving it bat.

1184
00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:08,799
Speaker 4: Yes, you can.

1185
00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:12,440
Speaker 9: Change the course of a city's hopes and dreams with

1186
00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:14,759
Speaker 9: one swing of the bat, and yet you have to

1187
00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:17,759
Speaker 9: understand that you can't actually do it in the first

1188
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:19,520
Speaker 9: at bat of the first game. It's going to take

1189
00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:21,480
Speaker 9: a month of those types of things. And I think

1190
00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:24,359
Speaker 9: that this team is kind of set up where they

1191
00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:25,840
Speaker 9: all kind of understand.

1192
00:51:25,520 --> 00:51:26,359
Speaker 5: Boy, we're pretty good.

1193
00:51:26,440 --> 00:51:28,839
Speaker 9: They look around the clubhouse and say, if I don't

1194
00:51:28,960 --> 00:51:31,480
Speaker 9: go out there and throw up seven zeros, that's fine.

1195
00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:33,160
Speaker 9: We got a bunch of guys who have shown that

1196
00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:35,280
Speaker 9: they can come in and pick me up the offense.

1197
00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:37,000
Speaker 9: If I don't come up and drive a ball in

1198
00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:39,680
Speaker 9: the gap my first, second, and third ab, that's fine,

1199
00:51:39,719 --> 00:51:41,759
Speaker 9: the guy behind me might end up doing that. I

1200
00:51:41,840 --> 00:51:43,920
Speaker 9: think that this team has just the right amount of

1201
00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:47,600
Speaker 9: experience where they're they're hungry, there's zero complacency. They know

1202
00:51:47,760 --> 00:51:50,120
Speaker 9: that the goal is not just to break a drought

1203
00:51:50,239 --> 00:51:52,480
Speaker 9: like it was two three years ago. The goal now

1204
00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:54,279
Speaker 9: is to win a pennant and then see what you

1205
00:51:54,320 --> 00:51:57,080
Speaker 9: can do in a seven game series for all the marbles, you.

1206
00:51:57,120 --> 00:52:00,239
Speaker 4: Know, softie. I grew up in New England and they

1207
00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:01,839
Speaker 4: got to see this thing. For a long time.

1208
00:52:01,880 --> 00:52:04,959
Speaker 6: They always talked about this curse, this eighty six year curse.

1209
00:52:05,120 --> 00:52:08,000
Speaker 6: Right's the Red Sox finally overcame in four And I've

1210
00:52:08,040 --> 00:52:10,279
Speaker 6: heard a little bit of that from people.

1211
00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:12,520
Speaker 4: Here in Seattle, say, oh, it's cursed or whatever.

1212
00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:14,759
Speaker 6: So I think the fans here to me are the

1213
00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:18,040
Speaker 6: most diehard fans in baseball because they haven't experienced the

1214
00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:18,680
Speaker 6: World Series.

1215
00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:23,520
Speaker 4: For you though, personally what hurt most? Was it ninety

1216
00:52:23,600 --> 00:52:24,520
Speaker 4: five or a one?

1217
00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:28,719
Speaker 6: For you that where you felt like, man, was it

1218
00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:30,920
Speaker 6: oh one, one hundred and sixteen games? Is that like

1219
00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:33,359
Speaker 6: the twenty sixteen Warriors? First of all, First of all,

1220
00:52:33,400 --> 00:52:37,360
Speaker 6: I asked the questions around here. Okay, okay, that's straight

1221
00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:39,920
Speaker 6: number two. I mean, you're the pride of Bellevue.

1222
00:52:40,080 --> 00:52:40,799
Speaker 2: You put up here.

1223
00:52:41,320 --> 00:52:43,160
Speaker 3: You know, I'm the pride of my backyard is but

1224
00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:45,200
Speaker 3: I'm the pride of I mean, oh one was a

1225
00:52:45,320 --> 00:52:48,919
Speaker 3: mass maybe maybe my I'm fifth behind my dog. Sorry,

1226
00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:51,120
Speaker 3: how's that sut? I mean, oh one was was a

1227
00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:53,960
Speaker 3: gut punch. But I think we know, guys in Chuck

1228
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:56,799
Speaker 3: and Buck, that's how baseball works. Right, I mean one

1229
00:52:56,920 --> 00:52:59,399
Speaker 3: hundred and sixteen wins and you have a seven game

1230
00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:01,200
Speaker 3: series and anything can happen.

1231
00:53:01,360 --> 00:53:02,320
Speaker 9: It's just it is.

1232
00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:04,799
Speaker 3: It is almost crazy to me. It's why I kind

1233
00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:06,840
Speaker 3: of hate the wildcard round. Like, if we're gonna do this,

1234
00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:09,880
Speaker 3: let's do a series, at least do a five game series. Right,

1235
00:53:09,920 --> 00:53:12,280
Speaker 3: It's like, I don't even really care who wins the Wildcard.

1236
00:53:12,320 --> 00:53:14,120
Speaker 3: Let's just get first to two wins, all right, how

1237
00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:15,960
Speaker 3: about at least a five game series so we have

1238
00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:18,319
Speaker 3: some kind of an idea of who the better ball

1239
00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:20,799
Speaker 3: club is. But when you're talking about a seven game

1240
00:53:20,880 --> 00:53:23,959
Speaker 3: sample of one hundred and sixty two versus a seven

1241
00:53:24,040 --> 00:53:26,600
Speaker 3: game sample chuck of an eighty two game season the

1242
00:53:26,640 --> 00:53:29,200
Speaker 3: way they do in the NBA and the NHL.

1243
00:53:29,120 --> 00:53:30,080
Speaker 4: Anything can happen.

1244
00:53:30,200 --> 00:53:31,800
Speaker 3: And you know, Dick and I were talking about this

1245
00:53:32,120 --> 00:53:33,840
Speaker 3: the other day about some of these teams that have

1246
00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:37,160
Speaker 3: moved on. Texas was number seven and wins in baseball

1247
00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:38,280
Speaker 3: and they won the World Series.

1248
00:53:38,320 --> 00:53:38,920
Speaker 4: In twenty three.

1249
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:42,120
Speaker 3: Arizona was thirteenth and wins and they played the World Series.

1250
00:53:42,520 --> 00:53:45,920
Speaker 3: Philadelphia was fourth in wins, So it's go to be

1251
00:53:46,239 --> 00:53:48,400
Speaker 3: eleventh and wins in twenty two when they won the

1252
00:53:48,440 --> 00:53:51,680
Speaker 3: whole damn thing. Atlanta was number twelve and total wins

1253
00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:54,200
Speaker 3: in twenty one and they won it. So how about

1254
00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:57,359
Speaker 3: the six Cardinals. It's just it's so lucky. I mean,

1255
00:53:57,360 --> 00:53:59,520
Speaker 3: you gotta have some luck, man. You gotta have a

1256
00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:02,640
Speaker 3: great bull pen. You gotta have klutch hitters with balls

1257
00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:04,720
Speaker 3: the size of boulders, and I think.

1258
00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:07,240
Speaker 5: Chuck, these guys do. Yeah, you can't give more outs,

1259
00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:10,560
Speaker 5: you know, you know, you can't commit errors. I mean,

1260
00:54:10,920 --> 00:54:14,000
Speaker 5: you're right. It's it's there's no perfect formula.

1261
00:54:14,160 --> 00:54:16,320
Speaker 13: It's just like trying to figure out how you should

1262
00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:18,319
Speaker 13: practice when you have a week off to get ready.

1263
00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:21,040
Speaker 13: There's no perfect formula. There's no perfect answer out there.

1264
00:54:21,080 --> 00:54:22,480
Speaker 13: The only thing you can do is number one, just

1265
00:54:22,520 --> 00:54:24,400
Speaker 13: get in the tournament. So let's just get in the tournament.

1266
00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:26,800
Speaker 13: It might have been in the tournament four years in

1267
00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:29,560
Speaker 13: a row, now absolutely mess. We marked things up on

1268
00:54:29,920 --> 00:54:32,600
Speaker 13: that on a couple of fronts, and so just get

1269
00:54:32,640 --> 00:54:34,840
Speaker 13: into the tournament. Anything can happen at that point. But

1270
00:54:34,880 --> 00:54:37,040
Speaker 13: I'll say this, I mean, I think the Mariners, I

1271
00:54:37,080 --> 00:54:38,480
Speaker 13: mean we'll go ahead and give them the A. J.

1272
00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:43,080
Speaker 13: Hinch check mark, and they have an absolute, undeniable Ace,

1273
00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:45,239
Speaker 13: so they're gonna get that check mark. But I think

1274
00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:47,400
Speaker 13: the Mariners have every other check mark in this series.

1275
00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:49,320
Speaker 13: I think they have the offense, they have the defense,

1276
00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:51,719
Speaker 13: they have the speed. They can play the small ball

1277
00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:53,279
Speaker 13: a little better this year than what they have in

1278
00:54:53,360 --> 00:54:55,400
Speaker 13: the past. They got the bullpen, they got the starting pitching,

1279
00:54:55,400 --> 00:54:58,239
Speaker 13: they got the starting pitching depth. So this team, just

1280
00:54:58,360 --> 00:55:00,560
Speaker 13: on paper, is better team than the Tigers.

1281
00:55:00,560 --> 00:55:01,640
Speaker 5: And they're gonna wait that four.

1282
00:55:01,800 --> 00:55:04,080
Speaker 3: I love it all right, Well, hey, Predictions, you got

1283
00:55:04,160 --> 00:55:05,919
Speaker 3: you know what, you blew my last segment. Now there's

1284
00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:08,480
Speaker 3: nothing left to talk about. For guys sake, Let's let's

1285
00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:10,560
Speaker 3: do thirteen other people on this pach Let's do this.

1286
00:55:10,680 --> 00:55:13,399
Speaker 3: It's actually fourteen. Let's come back. We're gonna get Chuck

1287
00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:15,400
Speaker 3: out here for a segment. Let him get his hands

1288
00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:17,920
Speaker 3: on that vodka Sota just got delivered there. We'll get

1289
00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:19,800
Speaker 3: Dick back in here, and then, guys, I think I

1290
00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:22,399
Speaker 3: want to do this at five point forty five, let's

1291
00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:25,560
Speaker 3: get everybody back on the air for one round and

1292
00:55:25,719 --> 00:55:27,840
Speaker 3: we'll talk about how far this team's gonna go and

1293
00:55:27,920 --> 00:55:30,160
Speaker 3: what the next month will bring for this baseball team.

1294
00:55:30,239 --> 00:55:32,880
Speaker 3: More on our Mariner Round Table next on ninety three

1295

Speaker 12: Randy jentson out there and the fans coming.

1306
00:56:10,640 --> 00:56:11,600
Speaker 4: Out on the field.

1307
00:56:12,160 --> 00:56:14,760
Speaker 5: Security is going to have a problem.

1308
00:56:15,200 --> 00:56:20,880
Speaker 6: But nineteen long years of frustration he is over all right.

1309
00:56:20,960 --> 00:56:22,880
Speaker 3: So there's a reason why I'm playing that clip that

1310
00:56:23,040 --> 00:56:25,640
Speaker 3: was thirty years ago yesterday.

1311
00:56:25,960 --> 00:56:26,719
Speaker 5: Wow, what was that?

1312
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:29,359
Speaker 3: And the craziest I've ever gone as a sports fan

1313
00:56:29,600 --> 00:56:33,120
Speaker 3: was the basis clearing in Luis Soho double because it

1314
00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:35,960
Speaker 3: was nineteen years we'd never made the playoffs. I was

1315
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:37,680
Speaker 3: sitting there watching the game with my mom and dad,

1316
00:56:37,760 --> 00:56:39,880
Speaker 3: and I grabbed my dad and fell on the ground.

1317
00:56:40,160 --> 00:56:43,279
Speaker 3: Underneath my seat's a pile of humanity. You realized it

1318
00:56:43,400 --> 00:56:45,360
Speaker 3: was done. You're up five to nothing and the seventh

1319
00:56:45,400 --> 00:56:47,759
Speaker 3: thing against Mark Langston and the game is over.

1320
00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:51,720
Speaker 4: Just lost my frecking mind more so than Edgar's double.

1321
00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:55,799
Speaker 3: Absolutely absolutely lost my mind when that happened, just lost

1322
00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:59,600
Speaker 3: my mind. That was thirty years ago, Ian yesterday, thirty

1323
00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:02,920
Speaker 3: years ago. This coming Wednesday is the double that Dick

1324
00:57:03,080 --> 00:57:05,600
Speaker 3: just talked about. Right, It's time to kind of get

1325
00:57:05,680 --> 00:57:08,560
Speaker 3: something else on that mantle next to those two events,

1326
00:57:08,560 --> 00:57:09,000
Speaker 3: don't you like?

1327
00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:11,520
Speaker 8: Yeah, I agree, I'll be honest with you, Dave. When

1328
00:57:11,520 --> 00:57:13,520
Speaker 8: I hear that, I all I think of is Dave.

1329
00:57:13,680 --> 00:57:17,600
Speaker 8: The other day, I just I man, man, I miss him.

1330
00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:18,480
Speaker 4: I big.

1331
00:57:18,800 --> 00:57:20,880
Speaker 8: That was the voice of my childhood for all for

1332
00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:22,880
Speaker 8: a lot of us, that was the voice of our childhood.

1333
00:57:22,960 --> 00:57:25,320
Speaker 8: And you hear him, and it's just, you know, there's

1334
00:57:25,360 --> 00:57:27,400
Speaker 8: there's a couple of things. I wish Dave the house

1335
00:57:27,400 --> 00:57:30,840
Speaker 8: would have seen this team have true playoff success. And

1336
00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:33,040
Speaker 8: I wish we would have seen Felix in a playoff game.

1337
00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:35,040
Speaker 8: Those are like the two things you can't ever get

1338
00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:38,720
Speaker 8: it back, because Seeger, what about Kyle Sieger Dick's favorite player?

1339
00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:44,040
Speaker 8: I get it, You're right, great writer, But you know,

1340
00:57:44,120 --> 00:57:46,320
Speaker 8: like we were talking about, just like the attitude and

1341
00:57:46,640 --> 00:57:50,240
Speaker 8: all that, and no one had a better one and

1342
00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:52,040
Speaker 8: more of a bulldog mentality than Fields.

1343
00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:52,240
Speaker 2: Right.

1344
00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:54,840
Speaker 3: Well, here's the thing I mean, and I and you

1345
00:57:55,000 --> 00:57:57,680
Speaker 3: almost got me, You almost got me emotional there. But

1346
00:57:57,760 --> 00:57:59,520
Speaker 3: the fact that you kept going you kind of saved

1347
00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:02,760
Speaker 3: my ass because I have always said when the Mariners

1348
00:58:02,840 --> 00:58:04,480
Speaker 3: make the World Series, it will not be the same

1349
00:58:04,560 --> 00:58:07,960
Speaker 3: because Dave Kneehouse will not be there to call it right.

1350
00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:10,800
Speaker 4: So let's win it for him. Yeah, let's get there

1351
00:58:10,840 --> 00:58:11,200
Speaker 4: for him.

1352
00:58:11,280 --> 00:58:13,440
Speaker 3: And the conversation and Dick, you can weigh back in

1353
00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:16,520
Speaker 3: on this is that have they already made this year's success,

1354
00:58:16,560 --> 00:58:19,200
Speaker 3: no matter what happens against the Tigers as twenty twenty

1355
00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:20,240
Speaker 3: five already a success.

1356
00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:21,600
Speaker 5: I separate it completely.

1357
00:58:21,800 --> 00:58:23,240
Speaker 13: I mean, I just the more and more I think

1358
00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:26,080
Speaker 13: about it, this has been a massive success in twenty

1359
00:58:26,160 --> 00:58:26,720
Speaker 13: twenty five.

1360
00:58:26,960 --> 00:58:28,120
Speaker 7: But we start over now.

1361
00:58:28,520 --> 00:58:30,880
Speaker 13: We start over now, And if they lose to the

1362
00:58:30,960 --> 00:58:35,280
Speaker 13: Detroit Tigers, then it was a massive, massive playoff meltdown

1363
00:58:35,320 --> 00:58:38,520
Speaker 13: because they should not lose to the Detroit Tigers. They

1364
00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:41,200
Speaker 13: lose to the Yankees, the Blue Jays. Hey man, that's

1365
00:58:41,240 --> 00:58:44,200
Speaker 13: a coin toss in my opinion. So that's not a failure.

1366
00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:46,520
Speaker 13: You lose to a team that is definitely worse than you,

1367
00:58:46,920 --> 00:58:48,080
Speaker 13: which I think the Tigers are.

1368
00:58:48,480 --> 00:58:50,360
Speaker 6: That's an issue Mark first, and then you can go ahead,

1369
00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:53,240
Speaker 6: Hey softy, let me just say this. When Depoto pulled

1370
00:58:53,240 --> 00:58:55,040
Speaker 6: off the trades for Naylor and Suarez, I got the

1371
00:58:55,080 --> 00:58:57,160
Speaker 6: Mariners to win the World Series at plus one thousand.

1372
00:58:57,640 --> 00:59:00,760
Speaker 6: Right now, they are in Vegas and any sportsbook you

1373
00:59:00,840 --> 00:59:03,080
Speaker 6: look at, they are the second highest favorite time to

1374
00:59:03,160 --> 00:59:07,120
Speaker 6: one win the World Series, behind the Dodgers. Dodgers actually

1375
00:59:07,160 --> 00:59:10,160
Speaker 6: favored over Phillies. So Vegas thinks that the Mariners have

1376
00:59:10,280 --> 00:59:12,200
Speaker 6: a better chance to win the World Series.

1377
00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:13,320
Speaker 4: Over the Phillies.

1378
00:59:13,400 --> 00:59:16,240
Speaker 6: So that's how much Vegas looks at the Mariners to win.

1379
00:59:16,480 --> 00:59:19,320
Speaker 6: So right now, it's World Series or busts. There's no

1380
00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:22,560
Speaker 6: reason why that team should not be playing late October

1381
00:59:22,600 --> 00:59:23,320
Speaker 6: and maybe November.

1382
00:59:23,320 --> 00:59:23,680
Speaker 5: Baseball.

1383
00:59:24,920 --> 00:59:27,160
Speaker 8: Well, I just think I think what Dixon is interesting

1384
00:59:27,200 --> 00:59:29,360
Speaker 8: about separating, and I guess maybe I would do that too.

1385
00:59:30,000 --> 00:59:31,800
Speaker 8: We had a great we had a fun year, yeah,

1386
00:59:31,960 --> 00:59:35,240
Speaker 8: like and and sports are about having fun. And and

1387
00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:38,280
Speaker 8: you know, we haven't forty nine years six playoff appearances.

1388
00:59:38,360 --> 00:59:40,080
Speaker 8: I mean, there hasn't been a lot of that here

1389
00:59:40,120 --> 00:59:43,280
Speaker 8: and that's why people are frustrated and all that. I

1390
00:59:43,400 --> 00:59:45,800
Speaker 8: will be really disappointed if this team doesn't get to

1391
00:59:45,840 --> 00:59:48,840
Speaker 8: the ALCS. I think they're a better baseball team than Detroit.

1392
00:59:48,920 --> 00:59:50,880
Speaker 8: But we talked about in the first segment five games,

1393
00:59:51,040 --> 00:59:53,160
Speaker 8: what the hell? Who knows what can happen? What happens

1394
00:59:53,160 --> 00:59:55,560
Speaker 8: if Kirby goes out and lays an egg against a

1395
00:59:55,640 --> 00:59:58,320
Speaker 8: bullpen start, and then all of a sudden, Scooble comes

1396
00:59:58,360 --> 01:00:01,520
Speaker 8: in and decides that maybe what scares what should scare

1397
01:00:01,560 --> 01:00:03,480
Speaker 8: the hell out of us, is that Schoobul comes in,

1398
01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:06,720
Speaker 8: you know, walks around the campus in SEATTLEU on First

1399
01:00:06,800 --> 01:00:10,080
Speaker 8: Hill and says, damn, I'm Trek Scubale, Like what the hell? Like,

1400
01:00:10,240 --> 01:00:12,400
Speaker 8: how have I struggled against these guys? And turns into

1401
01:00:12,440 --> 01:00:15,160
Speaker 8: that guy again? Because that could certainly happen A short story,

1402
01:00:15,240 --> 01:00:17,800
Speaker 8: so right, I will say I will be really disappointed.

1403
01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:19,560
Speaker 8: I won't call it a failure, but I'll be disappointed

1404
01:00:19,800 --> 01:00:22,120
Speaker 8: if they don't get to the ALCS because they're a

1405
01:00:22,160 --> 01:00:24,640
Speaker 8: better baseball team, as everyone has talked about for the

1406
01:00:24,720 --> 01:00:25,400
Speaker 8: last hour and a half.

1407
01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:27,440
Speaker 3: I just think, how are we judging these guys. We're

1408
01:00:27,480 --> 01:00:30,200
Speaker 3: judging them by postseason success. I mean that's how baseball

1409
01:00:30,240 --> 01:00:32,480
Speaker 3: team should be judged. And yes, I mean Dick. I

1410
01:00:32,560 --> 01:00:34,360
Speaker 3: get your point that they haven't won a division title

1411
01:00:34,440 --> 01:00:36,040
Speaker 3: in twenty four years, and you got to give him

1412
01:00:36,040 --> 01:00:38,040
Speaker 3: credit for that. But the reason why we're giving him

1413
01:00:38,080 --> 01:00:39,720
Speaker 3: credit for it is because they haven't done it in

1414
01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:42,320
Speaker 3: twenty four years. That's why we went nuts in twenty

1415
01:00:42,480 --> 01:00:44,960
Speaker 3: twenty two, because it's been twenty one seasons. If the

1416
01:00:45,160 --> 01:00:48,080
Speaker 3: playoffs had been a regular thing for these guys, it

1417
01:00:48,120 --> 01:00:49,360
Speaker 3: wouldn't have been that big a deal.

1418
01:00:49,440 --> 01:00:52,040
Speaker 7: Softy, he thought it is a big deal, Softy.

1419
01:00:52,080 --> 01:00:54,600
Speaker 8: Here's a thing. The trade. When they went in and

1420
01:00:54,680 --> 01:00:57,280
Speaker 8: made the trades again, I'll kind of go back. I

1421
01:00:57,320 --> 01:00:59,560
Speaker 8: think Gino was really symbolic like that was like, Hey,

1422
01:00:59,600 --> 01:01:01,120
Speaker 8: we're gonna prove that we're gonna go out and get

1423
01:01:01,160 --> 01:01:02,480
Speaker 8: a guy, you know, bring a guy back if we

1424
01:01:02,560 --> 01:01:05,520
Speaker 8: want to bring that. And but when they traded for Naylor,

1425
01:01:06,080 --> 01:01:09,240
Speaker 8: they traded for Naylor saying we're missing a piece, yes,

1426
01:01:09,480 --> 01:01:11,560
Speaker 8: and we think this team is good enough to take

1427
01:01:11,600 --> 01:01:14,520
Speaker 8: a run. They're not trading for Naylor to get knocked

1428
01:01:14,520 --> 01:01:16,960
Speaker 8: out in the Alds. No, they're trading for Naylor to

1429
01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:19,320
Speaker 8: take a run. Two guys whose deals are up right.

1430
01:01:19,480 --> 01:01:21,280
Speaker 3: I mean again, I think it was you that said

1431
01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:22,760
Speaker 3: it They don't often do that, and they did it

1432
01:01:22,840 --> 01:01:24,800
Speaker 3: because they want to win it to day, all right,

1433
01:01:24,880 --> 01:01:25,480
Speaker 3: it's gonna break.

1434
01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:27,200
Speaker 4: We'll get bucking Chuck back in here.

1435
01:01:27,640 --> 01:01:28,560
Speaker 2: We'll go round the room.

1436
01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:31,880
Speaker 3: How does this story end? How does the twenty twenty

1437
01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:33,640
Speaker 3: five Mariner story end?

1438
01:01:33,920 --> 01:01:35,880
Speaker 5: Next? On ninety three to three KJR.

1439
01:01:37,240 --> 01:01:39,960
Speaker 2: Now back to our playoff Baseball round table.

1440
01:01:40,080 --> 01:01:43,160
Speaker 10: There is nothing like postseason baseball, brought.

1441
01:01:43,000 --> 01:01:45,240
Speaker 2: To you by CL's Closest sports book.

1442

Speaker 1: To call me casino and hotel on Sports Radio ninety

1443
01:01:48,840 --> 01:01:51,360

Speaker 2: To they get.

1445
01:01:55,040 --> 01:02:07,600
Speaker 4: Touch cards leaving it? Well, you mentioned it Suarez and Naylor.

1446
01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:09,120
Speaker 4: You think those guys are back next year?

1447
01:02:09,640 --> 01:02:12,439
Speaker 11: I think we'll look at those kinds of issues after

1448
01:02:12,520 --> 01:02:15,560
Speaker 11: the season's over, and you know it's ultimately on Justin

1449
01:02:15,600 --> 01:02:18,520
Speaker 11: and Jerry to make those decisions.

1450
01:02:18,960 --> 01:02:20,120
Speaker 5: I would say not.

1451
01:02:20,680 --> 01:02:25,480
Speaker 11: In juxtaposition to your question, we have some unbelievable talent.

1452
01:02:26,400 --> 01:02:29,160
Speaker 4: John Stanton, Mariner chairman. Guys is with us a couple

1453
01:02:29,320 --> 01:02:29,800
Speaker 4: hours ago.

1454
01:02:29,840 --> 01:02:32,120
Speaker 3: We'll do the replay coming up at about six thirty,

1455
01:02:32,160 --> 01:02:34,680
Speaker 3: and I've just gotta laughing as if Stanton saying, Hey,

1456
01:02:34,840 --> 01:02:38,600
Speaker 3: those guys walk, don't blame me, Blame Justin and those

1457
01:02:38,640 --> 01:02:41,320
Speaker 3: guys getting out of here. But let's let's go one

1458
01:02:41,360 --> 01:02:43,919
Speaker 3: guy that signs in front of the exactly exactly, let's

1459
01:02:43,960 --> 01:02:44,680
Speaker 3: go round the room.

1460
01:02:45,160 --> 01:02:45,960
Speaker 4: We got three guys up.

1461
01:02:46,000 --> 01:02:50,080
Speaker 3: It'slawal Becauseino, Bucky, Chucky in ferness, Me, Mark, James, Dick

1463
01:02:53,000 --> 01:02:55,680
Speaker 3: guys on the ridge. Chuck will start with you, Bucky,

1464
01:02:55,960 --> 01:02:59,160
Speaker 3: and you're up next. How does this story end? Prediction time?

1465
01:02:59,320 --> 01:03:02,280
Speaker 3: Right here, Rylin's favorite segment, Prediction time. How does the

1466
01:03:02,360 --> 01:03:06,680
Speaker 3: two thousand and twenty five season story end for the Mariners?

1467
01:03:06,760 --> 01:03:09,000
Speaker 4: Chuck, go ahead, Uh well, I definitely.

1468
01:03:08,720 --> 01:03:12,800
Speaker 13: Think World Series, And then I think it's kind of

1469
01:03:12,880 --> 01:03:16,480
Speaker 13: hard to It's kind of hard with Philadelphia having dominated

1470
01:03:16,560 --> 01:03:18,840
Speaker 13: us not too long ago to kind of forget about that.

1471
01:03:19,040 --> 01:03:21,040
Speaker 13: But man, if we're gonna go as far as saying, hey,

1472
01:03:21,400 --> 01:03:23,960
Speaker 13: World Series, let's take him to win it. So I'm

1473
01:03:23,960 --> 01:03:26,960
Speaker 13: gonna go Mariners over the Philadelphia Phillies.

1474
01:03:26,560 --> 01:03:30,080
Speaker 3: And seven guy thrilling seven games when the whole freaking

1475
01:03:31,280 --> 01:03:33,400
Speaker 3: Bucky we got a parade and John Stanton and I

1476
01:03:33,520 --> 01:03:35,760
Speaker 3: are holding hands. He promised we could hold hands if

1477
01:03:35,800 --> 01:03:37,760
Speaker 3: they won the World Series and had a parade, So

1478
01:03:38,160 --> 01:03:38,560
Speaker 3: I love it.

1479
01:03:38,640 --> 01:03:40,840
Speaker 9: How about you, Bucky, I'm gonna kiss John standing on

1480
01:03:40,920 --> 01:03:43,200
Speaker 9: the back of his neck, heavy breathing and all if

1481
01:03:43,240 --> 01:03:46,720
Speaker 9: we were serious, and he right now just got terrified.

1482
01:03:46,840 --> 01:03:47,600
Speaker 9: I am certain of it.

1483
01:03:48,440 --> 01:03:51,040
Speaker 4: I'm wow, I'm not as far as you'll go. I'll

1484
01:03:51,080 --> 01:03:52,680
Speaker 4: kiss the back of his ass. Are you kidding me?

1485
01:03:52,920 --> 01:03:53,240
Speaker 2: All right?

1486
01:03:55,160 --> 01:03:55,520
Speaker 4: You do you?

1487
01:03:55,600 --> 01:03:57,440
Speaker 9: He's gonna be getting a lot of loving then, because

1488
01:03:57,440 --> 01:03:59,520
Speaker 9: I think this team gets to the World Series, and

1489
01:03:59,600 --> 01:04:03,480
Speaker 9: then it's I was telling Ian in between segments that

1490
01:04:03,760 --> 01:04:06,479
Speaker 9: there is a devastating way that these playoffs can feel

1491
01:04:06,560 --> 01:04:07,960
Speaker 9: at the end of it, and then there's a way

1492
01:04:08,000 --> 01:04:10,280
Speaker 9: that you could maybe not win it or not even

1493
01:04:10,320 --> 01:04:13,880
Speaker 9: get to the World Series, and it's like, well, that's baseball.

1494
01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:14,920
Speaker 7: That's the way that it is.

1495
01:04:15,040 --> 01:04:17,240
Speaker 9: And so lining this thing up again and get another

1496
01:04:17,320 --> 01:04:20,080
Speaker 9: crack at it. That said, I feel a little bit

1497
01:04:20,280 --> 01:04:23,360
Speaker 9: like this is the team like the twenty thirteen Seahawks.

1498
01:04:23,720 --> 01:04:25,840
Speaker 9: I feel like there's a little bit of a destiny

1499
01:04:25,920 --> 01:04:29,280
Speaker 9: type thing. There's a story. Yeah, they're gonna the Broncos

1500
01:04:29,640 --> 01:04:32,479
Speaker 9: in the World Series. It's not even gonna be a game.

1501
01:04:33,440 --> 01:04:35,560
Speaker 9: I mean, I just feel like there's something about it

1502
01:04:35,640 --> 01:04:38,040
Speaker 9: that there's a feel with the squad, there's a feel

1503
01:04:38,080 --> 01:04:40,600
Speaker 9: with the city that there's something special going on. I

1504
01:04:40,600 --> 01:04:41,520
Speaker 9: don't think it's gonna be easy.

1505
01:04:41,560 --> 01:04:42,959
Speaker 4: I don't think we would want it to be easy.

1506
01:04:43,240 --> 01:04:45,040
Speaker 9: Right If they I wouldn't be surprised if they win

1507
01:04:45,120 --> 01:04:47,320
Speaker 9: this one in four, and I wouldn't be surprised if

1508
01:04:47,320 --> 01:04:49,280
Speaker 9: the next two series go all the way to Game seven.

1509
01:04:49,360 --> 01:04:50,680
Speaker 5: Okay, time a second.

1510
01:04:50,800 --> 01:04:52,960
Speaker 3: I'm asking you for prediction, and you gave me like

1511
01:04:53,080 --> 01:04:55,919
Speaker 3: five different possibilities. What do you think winning the World

1512
01:04:56,040 --> 01:04:58,439
Speaker 3: Series and win the whole thing, win the whole thing seven.

1513
01:04:58,680 --> 01:04:59,880
Speaker 7: That's gonna be high optane.

1514
01:05:00,120 --> 01:05:01,400
Speaker 5: Okay, Ian, go ahead.

1515
01:05:01,800 --> 01:05:03,200
Speaker 8: First of all, I wish you wouldn't have played that

1516
01:05:03,240 --> 01:05:05,240
Speaker 8: cut from Stanton because now I'm pissed, Like I just

1517
01:05:05,280 --> 01:05:08,600
Speaker 8: hated that. I hated that because now I know that,

1518
01:05:09,200 --> 01:05:11,320
Speaker 8: now I know my favorite player, Josh Naylor's.

1519
01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:13,920
Speaker 5: Not coming back. That's right, Set, I like it.

1520
01:05:14,680 --> 01:05:16,120
Speaker 7: I think Bucket what Bucky says is good.

1521
01:05:16,160 --> 01:05:19,520
Speaker 8: I like that because I think you could say Naylor specifically,

1522
01:05:19,680 --> 01:05:23,480
Speaker 8: and maybe Gino. Those are Bennett and April, right, that's

1523
01:05:23,480 --> 01:05:25,760
Speaker 8: Bennett and Abril. Those are the two people. Forget the

1524
01:05:25,800 --> 01:05:28,439
Speaker 8: two missing pieces? Were those two guys from twenty twelve

1525
01:05:28,480 --> 01:05:30,600
Speaker 8: to twenty thirteen. They were the difference makers the next year.

1526
01:05:31,320 --> 01:05:33,280
Speaker 8: Maybe Percy, but he was crazy. So let's just go

1527
01:05:33,360 --> 01:05:35,760
Speaker 8: with those two guys. I think they're gonna get to

1528
01:05:35,800 --> 01:05:39,680
Speaker 8: the World Series. Screw it, they're gonna win it.

1529
01:05:40,120 --> 01:05:42,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, you know.

1530
01:05:42,040 --> 01:05:45,200
Speaker 8: What, Well, first of all, I think this is I

1531
01:05:45,280 --> 01:05:47,040
Speaker 8: think this is it. We've been We've waited for forty

1532
01:05:47,120 --> 01:05:49,080
Speaker 8: nine years. I'm still sick of looking at that thing.

1533
01:05:49,280 --> 01:05:50,600
Speaker 8: You know, they've never been the World Series, never be

1534
01:05:50,640 --> 01:05:52,520
Speaker 8: in the World Series, Right, I think they get there,

1535
01:05:52,640 --> 01:05:55,320
Speaker 8: And I'm with Chuck, screw it, get there and Cal

1536
01:05:55,400 --> 01:05:55,960
Speaker 8: said it best?

1537
01:05:56,120 --> 01:05:56,760
Speaker 5: Are we a delay?

1538
01:05:57,240 --> 01:05:57,800
Speaker 4: Just go win it?

1539
01:05:58,680 --> 01:05:58,800
Speaker 8: Right?

1540
01:05:59,080 --> 01:05:59,480
Speaker 5: That's right?

1541
01:06:00,040 --> 01:06:02,280
Speaker 3: Why does Dick? Why does this year feel different? I

1542
01:06:02,320 --> 01:06:05,880
Speaker 3: mean we just homers living in the moment thing? Or

1543
01:06:05,920 --> 01:06:08,200
Speaker 3: does this actually feel different than it has?

1544
01:06:08,400 --> 01:06:11,720
Speaker 13: No, it's it's felt different since the trade deadline. This

1545
01:06:11,920 --> 01:06:13,840
Speaker 13: is a great baseball team. It was not a great

1546
01:06:13,880 --> 01:06:15,880
Speaker 13: baseball team, but it's a great baseball team now.

1547
01:06:15,840 --> 01:06:16,520
Speaker 5: Over the last month.

1548
01:06:16,760 --> 01:06:18,880
Speaker 13: Yes, it is a great it's a great baseball team

1549
01:06:18,920 --> 01:06:20,960
Speaker 13: since they've added those two guys at the corners, and

1550
01:06:21,040 --> 01:06:24,240
Speaker 13: it's the best baseball team in the American League, and

1551
01:06:24,720 --> 01:06:27,400
Speaker 13: so I will just lean and say the best baseball

1552
01:06:27,480 --> 01:06:29,960
Speaker 13: team in the American League is going to make.

1553
01:06:29,880 --> 01:06:31,240
Speaker 5: The World Series, the World Series.

1554
01:06:31,360 --> 01:06:33,960
Speaker 13: But I don't think they're the best team in baseball, right.

1555
01:06:34,160 --> 01:06:35,840
Speaker 13: I think the Phillies are the best team in basketball.

1556
01:06:35,880 --> 01:06:37,160
Speaker 13: So I've I've got them losing.

1557
01:06:37,000 --> 01:06:37,440
Speaker 4: To the Phillies.

1558
01:06:37,520 --> 01:06:39,680
Speaker 3: Well, and Mark, you know, the best team in baseball

1559
01:06:39,760 --> 01:06:42,840
Speaker 3: doesn't always win the World Series, right, I mean again,

1560
01:06:43,080 --> 01:06:45,960
Speaker 3: just just getting there. You know, Washington was had the

1561
01:06:46,080 --> 01:06:50,400
Speaker 3: eighth eighth most wins in baseball in twenty nineteen, and

1562
01:06:50,480 --> 01:06:53,760
Speaker 3: they beat the number one seeded Astros in the World

1563
01:06:53,880 --> 01:06:57,960
Speaker 3: Series five years ago to claim the championships. So it's

1564
01:06:58,000 --> 01:07:00,200
Speaker 3: not always the best team that wins. But I want

1565
01:07:00,200 --> 01:07:02,360
Speaker 3: to get Mark's thought on this, how this story ends,

1566
01:07:02,360 --> 01:07:06,480
Speaker 3: real quick? Go ahead, well and no, listen you and Chuck. Obviously,

1567
01:07:06,520 --> 01:07:07,320
Speaker 3: the Phillies are great.

1568
01:07:07,360 --> 01:07:09,880
Speaker 6: I mean there's no question about they're missing their Asack Wheeler.

1569
01:07:10,080 --> 01:07:12,360
Speaker 6: Without Zach Wheeler, I don't think they have enough to

1570
01:07:12,400 --> 01:07:15,480
Speaker 6: get there. I think, ultimately, who's the team that is

1571
01:07:15,560 --> 01:07:18,440
Speaker 6: the template in baseball, the LA Dodgers. This is gonna

1572
01:07:18,440 --> 01:07:21,880
Speaker 6: be a WCWS. It's gonna be a West Coast World Series. Yeah,

1573
01:07:21,920 --> 01:07:25,080
Speaker 6: and the Seattle Mariners versus the guy that I wish

1574
01:07:25,160 --> 01:07:27,360
Speaker 6: would come to Seattle that would be the biggest hero

1575
01:07:27,480 --> 01:07:29,600
Speaker 6: here in Seattle sports history if he played for the Mariners,

1576
01:07:29,680 --> 01:07:31,720
Speaker 6: Joe Hey o Tani. In my opinion, this is the

1577
01:07:31,800 --> 01:07:34,120
Speaker 6: modern day Bay Ruth. I think the Mariners win it.

1578
01:07:34,360 --> 01:07:36,720
Speaker 6: They win it all in six games over the Dodgers.

1579
01:07:36,800 --> 01:07:39,840
Speaker 6: I don't think the Dodgers are as good this year

1580
01:07:40,120 --> 01:07:42,640
Speaker 6: as they were last year. And I think Seattle will

1581
01:07:42,680 --> 01:07:46,680
Speaker 6: celebrate and party like it's nineteen seventy nine and twenty thirteen.

1582
01:07:46,800 --> 01:07:47,200
Speaker 5: I love it.

1583
01:07:47,560 --> 01:07:48,600
Speaker 4: Well, guys, I gotta tell you.

1584
01:07:48,920 --> 01:07:51,040
Speaker 3: I'll just say this, and you three knuckleheads are up

1585
01:07:51,040 --> 01:07:53,520
Speaker 3: there and still call me Bucky, Chuck and Ian where

1586
01:07:53,560 --> 01:07:57,400
Speaker 3: at Jimmy's And there is a cheerleader convention going all

1587
01:07:58,000 --> 01:08:00,640
Speaker 3: straight here, yeah, right now.

1588
01:08:00,840 --> 01:08:02,800
Speaker 4: And I'm taking that as an awesome sign.

1589
01:08:03,080 --> 01:08:05,160
Speaker 3: I don't know what the hell the connection is to baseball,

1590
01:08:06,680 --> 01:08:10,480
Speaker 3: but I have taken that as an unbelievable sign that

1591
01:08:10,680 --> 01:08:14,080
Speaker 3: this team is gonna make a run. They're changing, they

1592
01:08:14,120 --> 01:08:17,240
Speaker 3: are drinking, and they're having fun. This this feels like

1593
01:08:17,439 --> 01:08:19,560
Speaker 3: it's their time, right, I mean, if not, if not,

1594
01:08:19,800 --> 01:08:23,439
Speaker 3: now then when right And you know what. I said

1595
01:08:23,479 --> 01:08:25,400
Speaker 3: this to Dick and Jackson a couple of days ago, guys,

1596
01:08:25,439 --> 01:08:27,639
Speaker 3: and I don't know what it is. Maybe a premonition.

1597
01:08:28,080 --> 01:08:29,760
Speaker 3: I go back to two thousand and two thousand and

1598
01:08:29,760 --> 01:08:32,200
Speaker 3: one ninety five. I feel like the Mariners and Yankees

1599
01:08:32,240 --> 01:08:34,840
Speaker 3: will play in the Alcs and the Mariners will have

1600
01:08:34,920 --> 01:08:37,559
Speaker 3: to slay the Demon. They'll slay the Giants to get

1601
01:08:37,600 --> 01:08:39,960
Speaker 3: to the World Series and beat the Yankees and make

1602
01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:42,280
Speaker 3: the World Series. I think they lose the World Series,

1603
01:08:42,600 --> 01:08:44,439
Speaker 3: but I think this is ze. We're gonna cross one

1604
01:08:44,600 --> 01:08:47,639
Speaker 3: big to do off our bucket list. Bucket can see

1605
01:08:47,680 --> 01:08:50,320
Speaker 3: half your face there, and the Mariners make the World
