1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:01,520
Speaker 1: Bob Night and gane what's up man? You're all with

2
00:00:01,600 --> 00:00:04,680
Speaker 1: Dave Logan ran Evers to Shelby Harris. How are you? Yeah?

3
00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:05,080
Speaker 2: Doing great?

4
00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:05,760
Speaker 3: How about you guys?

5
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:08,320
Speaker 4: Bob, we were sitting here talking about picky eaters or

6
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:09,120
Speaker 4: not picky eaters?

7
00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:10,000
Speaker 5: When you were raised?

8
00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:13,600
Speaker 4: Were there a couple of foods that you absolutely, as

9
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:16,800
Speaker 4: a kid hated and you've continued to carry that with

10
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:18,320
Speaker 4: you throughout your lifetime?

11
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:19,800
Speaker 3: Okay?

12
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:21,079
Speaker 5: I did?

13
00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 3: I mean they we had to eat.

14
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:27,400
Speaker 2: Everything in the place that was career. Of course you didn't.

15
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:28,840
Speaker 2: You'd be standing in the corner for a couple of

16
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 2: hours after dinner, right, Oh, no, No, we had we

17
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:33,519
Speaker 2: had to eat everything.

18
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:35,159
Speaker 5: All right?

19
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:37,919
Speaker 1: Well, Bob, well, obviously we have a lot of things

20
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:39,240
Speaker 1: to get tough with you. I wanted to ask you

21
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:40,640
Speaker 1: about the s of the Rock. You mean, they were

22
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,360
Speaker 1: the worst team in baseball last year. That's by quite

23
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 1: a bit. Are you a believer in the direction that

24
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 1: they've taken their front office and some of the changes

25
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:51,279
Speaker 1: that they made, and how how soon do you think

26
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:53,560
Speaker 1: we'll see the fruits of that labor?

27
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:57,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll see. I mean, obviously it was.

28
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 2: A a gamble. I mean they want to build Steven

29
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:04,399
Speaker 2: Essen's been out on the game for ten years. When

30
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 2: I had heard the rumor that they were interviewing him

31
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 2: and he was a favorite, I actually didn't believe it

32
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:11,840
Speaker 2: because he has been with the brown.

33
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 3: For ten years and just you know, kind of out

34
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 3: of side.

35
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 2: On the mind. People kind of forgot about him, and

36
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,039
Speaker 2: so yeah, why not, I mean, try something different. I

37
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 2: had to get you know, I had a solid reputation

38
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,679
Speaker 2: when he was in baseball before things didn't go so

39
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 2: well with the Browns.

40
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:32,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, try it. Yeah, uh, you know, I think at.

41
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 2: This point they're just looking for any kind of new ideas.

42
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 5: Hey, hey Bob, I shall be here here so I

43
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 5: g my. My question is more towards the future of baseball.

44
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 5: What like, what's the end game of negotiations when it comes,

45
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 5: you know, talking about the Lucy Bay when the owners

46
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 5: obviously want some type of SALID cap, the players are

47
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 5: extremely against it, and they are both saying that these

48
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 5: are number one priorities that that need to happen in

49
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 5: order for them to be able to sign a CBA.

50
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 5: What happened, Well, who's going to k but what is

51
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:10,920
Speaker 5: the answer to to make this work?

52
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:14,919
Speaker 2: Well, we'll you know, see who blinks first. You know,

53
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 2: we got through this before obviously do that to ninety

54
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 2: four ninety five, but that's when the players went on strike.

55
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 2: This time, the players won't go on strike, but you know,

56
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 2: you know, be locked out. Uh, you know, it's just

57
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 2: a situation that the uh see you know MLB is

58
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 2: going to say.

59
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,360
Speaker 3: You know what, we have an.

60
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 2: Other sports it works, why not try it here? And

61
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,080
Speaker 2: the players say, you know, we win one guy to

62
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 2: be able to make one hundred million, six or million dollars,

63
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 2: why I take that away from us? So we'll see.

64
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 2: Uh remember last time, uh, for the last CBA, in

65
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,640
Speaker 2: the executive board of you know, eight guys who are

66
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 2: pretty much well paid, they voted, hey let's just keep uh,

67
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 2: let's keep you know, uh negotiating. We don't want to

68
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 2: return to work in the rank and file. You know,

69
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 2: way over ruled them three to one and no, no, no,

70
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 2: we're not doing that.

71
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,520
Speaker 3: We want away played right now. So we'll see the

72
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 3: same thing happens this time around.

73
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 5: But as agree, like, what how long could this really go?

74
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,640
Speaker 5: Is this all because fun of what it sounds like

75
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 5: this could be longer than a season, because this is

76
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 5: things that the players and owners fundamentally believe in in

77
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:32,239
Speaker 5: their complete opposites. So how long could this actually really go?

78
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:32,799
Speaker 1: Jack?

79
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 2: I can't see it going that long. You know, could

80
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 2: have go through March and push the season backs.

81
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 3: A week or so. Yeah, you know, it could have

82
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 3: go even April, and April possible. I just don't.

83
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,360
Speaker 2: I think you just seem there's too much money be

84
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 2: lost by both sides. The momentum is too strong on

85
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 2: both sides. I mean, everybody's making money. Just a question

86
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 2: of you know how much?

87
00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, I don't.

88
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 2: I don't see, and I think it'd be suicidal for

89
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 2: both sides. I just dig in knowing that hey, whatever

90
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 2: lost mind there is, you're not gonna get a back

91
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 2: taking the players side, I mean, are short.

92
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 3: You know, do you miss a two paychecks?

93
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 2: You know it's not like you're.

94
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 4: Gonna make that thing up, Bob, I find a question

95
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,719
Speaker 4: for me as we we get set. As as Ryan said,

96
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 4: the Rockies open on Monday, open on Friday in Miami.

97
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 4: You look at you look at the favorites this year,

98
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,480
Speaker 4: No surprise. The Dodgers are the favored again. They've won

99
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 4: the last two World Series. Their payroll is over four

100
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,360
Speaker 4: hundred million dollars. I believe the only team to exceed

101
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 4: four hundred million dollars. My question is, I don't think

102
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 4: it's happened in the National League that we've ever had

103
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 4: a back to back to back World Series winner out

104
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 4: of the National League. I mean, as you look at

105
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 4: this season on paper, as we get set to start,

106
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 4: in your mind, is that the Dodgers and everybody else

107
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,479
Speaker 4: or do you see this thing maybe being a bit

108
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 4: more competitive than that once we get down into the playoffs.

109
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, it'll be competitive.

110
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 2: I mean two years ago they beat it, could have

111
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 2: got beat by the dot by the San Diego Podres

112
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 2: in Division series.

113
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 3: Could got beat last year by.

114
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,479
Speaker 2: The Phillies in the first round. Surely could get knocked

115
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,359
Speaker 2: off by the Blue Jays and Rolls series.

116
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 3: You know, hey, you look at the last five years.

117
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 2: The Mets have spent more money than Dodgers have. Right now,

118
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 2: just on a regular payroll, the Mets payroll is fifty

119
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 2: million dollars.

120
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 3: Monet the Dodgers. So you know what, it's just mv too.

121
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 2: It's like these guys are doing something right, and now

122
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 2: how can the Dodgers.

123
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 3: Are drafting last or next to last every single year?

124
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 2: And they're still getting better players than everybody else, so that.

125
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 3: You know, they do things right too, right too. You know,

126
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 3: I think it's you know, that was a sorry cap

127
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,280
Speaker 3: in the lower the thing and stthingk the Dodgers would

128
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 3: be a power Bob.

129
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,279
Speaker 1: Really appreciate the time, man. I enjoyed the game. You

130
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,279
