You know, I'm really regretting with 137 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 2: I said that the Reds need to get off to 138 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 2: a blistering start. 139 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, gotta worry about that word. 140 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 11: Hey, Joe from Casey here comming in on the Reds. 141 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 11: Went out to Arizona last week for the first time 142 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 11: and went to spring training and washed a game, saw 143 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 11: some practice things like that, and I gotta tell you 144 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 11: it was pretty cool. I did not know what to 145 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 11: expect going into it, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. If 146 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 11: anybody ever gets out there, I recommend going. 147 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't think I've ever heard for a good season. 148 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 3: I don't think anyone's ever said anything negative here the 149 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 3: way he said that, Yeah, it's just so for good. 150 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 3: You got you got to see spring training, so you're good. 151 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 3: I did not when we went. 152 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 7: We did not go to a practice, But I do 153 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 7: think that would be cool to see. 154 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 12: With blisters being a problem for Reds pitchers for multiple seasons, 155 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 12: you think they would have discovered callous building to prevent 156 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 12: them by now. It seems like a pretty fast and 157 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 12: effective way of dealing with blisters. So why don't they 158 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 12: already do this? 159 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 4: I would sure they try to figure out ways. 160 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 7: I would assume the reason for that would be the 161 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 7: grip on the ball. You have to be able to 162 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 7: have a grip on the ball that can create that spin, 163 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:19,200 Speaker 7: and if you have a callous you probably can't grip. 164 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 4: I wonder if the heat as well in Arizona had 165 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 4: something to do with it. That's what they say. 166 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 7: They say the heat makes it happen quicker, And it 167 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 7: was well over one hundred in Arizona for like two weeks, 168 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:32,839 Speaker 7: so I'm sure that played a role. 169 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 13: It's greg three days before opening day, Hunter Green out, 170 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 13: Nick Ladola out Gee. I hope Tyler Stevenson can make 171 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 13: it another three days. 172 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:46,680 Speaker 3: And be able to play Thursday. 173 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 13: Those three guys are nothing but soft. 174 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,359 Speaker 3: Wow, it's quite an accusation. 175 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 4: When will we know more about the Lodolo side of 176 00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:58,320 Speaker 4: things today? 177 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 7: I would assume, I would assume today so and they 178 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 7: taught I don't I don't know who all is going 179 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 7: to be in Milwaukee. 180 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:09,200 Speaker 4: My concern though, covering is that when talking about the blister, 181 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,080 Speaker 4: Francona said quote they popped it over in the training 182 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 4: room and drained some of it. So if that's the case, 183 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 4: that if it's popped, I don't know that that's not 184 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 4: the early stage of a blister. That's that's kind of 185 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 4: on the back end of it. 186 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 7: Not ideal and there's like a there's something they call 187 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 7: second skin that you can put on that. 188 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:32,559 Speaker 3: I guess it's just all about the recovery. 189 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 4: In August of last year, he had the blister issue 190 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 4: and he missed twenty three days. 191 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 3: Yeah. 192 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 14: Delta Airlines canceled my trip to Hawaii last week because 193 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:48,959 Speaker 14: of bad weather. I ended up staying in Los Angeles 194 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,560 Speaker 14: for several days. While there, I asked people, do you 195 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 14: know Tony Pike? No one knew Tony Pike except one 196 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 14: guy hesitated. He was like the architect. 197 00:09:58,600 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 3: I'm like, no, never mind. 198 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 14: Anyway, it's good to be back. Austin. I heard you 199 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:05,560 Speaker 14: in the first hour say I'm dead last in some 200 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,920 Speaker 14: basketball pool. You got the wrong guy, brother, I'm not 201 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:10,679 Speaker 14: in any basketball. 202 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 3: Oh sure you're not. Man, Is it your poster? Maybe 203 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 3: it is. I guess we don't know. 204 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 2: I got a question about the show. 205 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 9: Who decides the starting times of each show or is 206 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 9: it just based on like ads, because I know you 207 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 9: guys usually start at twelve oh one and then Moe 208 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,440 Speaker 9: starts using like three oh six, So I'm just wondering 209 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 9: what determines that. 210 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 7: So our clock is a little bit different than Moe's clock. 211 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 7: It's based off of ESPN. So if you listen during Mo' show, 212 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:47,079 Speaker 7: they do a top of the hour sports center, or 213 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 7: at least when Moe hits it on time. So three 214 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 7: o'clock you hear a sports center, four o'clock you hear 215 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 7: a sports center, five o'clock you hear a sports center. 216 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 7: So we go sports center and then some spots and 217 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 7: then MO starts. Yep, I think, and I don't know 218 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 7: this for sure, but I think when this show started, 219 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,360 Speaker 7: the goal was to make it very different than anything else, 220 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 7: which meant that it started at the top of the hour, 221 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 7: which was once people start listening, they'll stay there, as 222 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:21,439 Speaker 7: opposed to, Okay, you go over to one station to 223 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 7: hear the news and then you come back to come 224 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 7: to this and blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. 225 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:26,680 Speaker 4: I think I wasn't originally with I think it was 226 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 4: with three sixty. It was three segments in the hour. 227 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 4: Segments were a little louder at one point or longer 228 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:32,560 Speaker 4: at one point. 229 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 7: Yeah, And the whole purpose was that James, I think, 230 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 7: would take one topic yeah and look at three different 231 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:40,839 Speaker 7: sides of it. 232 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 3: Yeah. So yeah, and its inception. 233 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 15: My reason for optimism this season for the Threads is 234 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 15: pretty simple. I think we'll score more runs than they 235 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 15: did last year. Those two to one ball games that 236 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 15: we seemingly always lost. I feel like we'll be on 237 00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 15: the other side of that spectrum just simply because we're 238 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 15: going to score more runs. 239 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:02,320 Speaker 3: I feel like we can hit better. 240 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:04,839 Speaker 15: And if that's the case, I think we have a 241 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 15: potential to have a very very good season. 242 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 3: Take the over, let's go. 243 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,560 Speaker 7: Okay, my pushback would be, how many games are they 244 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:13,240 Speaker 7: going to be giving up to or fewer runs? 245 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 3: Great questions? What's that? Fellas Happy Monday? 246 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 16: Unlike Wes Miller, Pat Noonan may have just bought himself 247 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 16: a little more time yesterday. I mean, what a comeback. 248 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 16: Giving up the PK to go down three to two 249 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 16: in the sixty fourth minute with the Miles Robinson red 250 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 16: card did not leave me with a lot of hope. 251 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 16: But somehow, some way. 252 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 3: They did it. 253 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 16: Hey, is it too late to substitute Nick Haglin and 254 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 16: for Andrew Abbott on an opening day? I mean that 255 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 16: throwing for the game winning goal was spot on. 256 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 3: Okay, hagling for Lodolo. 257 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 16: Now, but jokes aside, we did go from a possible 258 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 16: top five rotation to Hunter Green out for half the season, 259 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:55,559 Speaker 16: another dolo blister that may linger, and our opening day 260 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 16: starter getting rocked all spring. Yeah, I expect the offense 261 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 16: to be better, but it's unlikely to make a difference 262 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 16: if our top of the rotation guys aren't available or effective. 263 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 3: Yeah. 264 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 16: Having said that, I'm absolutely stoked for Thursday. Hope to 265 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 16: see you guys down at Smoke Justice have a good one. 266 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 3: Yeah. 267 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 4: I always think it's unique as well. Like and we've 268 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,319 Speaker 4: talked to Bob Manjan from Novacare about this before. How 269 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:19,839 Speaker 4: you deal with an injury at the start of a 270 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,200 Speaker 4: season versus the middle of the season versus the end 271 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,959 Speaker 4: of the season. You know, how cautious are you at 272 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 4: the start of the year to make sure it's not 273 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 4: something that lingers throughout a whole year. 274 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 17: Love the tournament, I'll tell you Kansas, Florida played some 275 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 17: horrible defense at the end. You know, Kansas, you gotta 276 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 17: let some time run off the clock, and what to 277 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:49,440 Speaker 17: help Florida was doing. I think reds be optimistic about 278 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 17: South Stewart Sores McClain, okay. 279 00:13:54,320 --> 00:14:00,599 Speaker 18: Okay, hey, fellas, it's Mike in La I'm going to 280 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 18: proceed to talk about how good Florida is for sixteen 281 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:07,440 Speaker 18: weeks straight and continue to clog up the airways with 282 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 18: how good they are, and then they're gonna get bounced 283 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 18: in the second round. Are you kidding me? Oh jeez dang. 284 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:18,079 Speaker 7: There's been a lot of criticism towards Mike in La, 285 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 7: the last couple unbelievable. 286 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 19: Hi Tonia in Austin. I'm believing. Yeah, there still are Cinderellas. 287 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 19: Look at Iowa. Iowa stunk this year and here they are, 288 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 19: so you know, who knows. We'll see how far that 289 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 19: takes them. I was really hoping Akron would be the Cinderella, 290 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 19: but yeah, that didn't happen either. Okay, guys, have a 291 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 19: great day and a great week. 292 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 4: I don't think it's as much about Cinderellas as it 293 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 4: is the mid majors. Like the Iowa Hawkeys has a 294 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 4: nine seed, great story, they have the money available in 295 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 4: the Big ten. I think it's more about the nil 296 00:14:57,040 --> 00:15:01,280 Speaker 4: dollars in the mid majors like eleven seated Texas. That 297 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 4: could be a Cinderella story, but Texas plays in a 298 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 4: power conference. Texas spends a lot of money on their roster. 299 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 4: That's a little bit different than what the mid majors 300 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 4: are able to do. 301 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 18: I mean, yeah, Austin in an error of college sports 302 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 18: where you can pay the athletes legally. 303 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 4: Who wouldn't be surprised for Patino and John Colpi. 304 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 3: Review the two most successful coaches, noted. 305 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 1: Yo, Tony, I'm going to assume you don't have any 306 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 1: idea how to clip what someone says. But Austin just said, yeah, 307 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 1: I mean roll tide, you should probably clip that. 308 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 3: Save it. He's got like probably thirteen of you. That's true. 309 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 7: Stand I mean, I stand by it. That's true for 310 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 7: the as far as the context is concerned. I mean, 311 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 7: here's one gobox, yes, most saying go Bucks. 312 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 3: Yeah. 313 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 7: I used to have one of you saying go Bucks, 314 00:15:54,520 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 7: but its apparently apparently disappeared. Really okay, I don't know 315 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 7: if maybe you had one of your guys cronies come 316 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 7: in here and take care of that. 317 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 5: And the minute you decide you want to be a 318 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 5: Buckey of your link changes forever. 319 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 7: That ain't it. That was coach day, that ain't it. 320 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 7: But I can't find the one I had of you, 321 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 7: So I imagine it's part of your signing bonus. 322 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 20: Interesting here, guys, Marcus and the groove Marcus uh Pope? Yes, 323 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 20: the roster construction of that team was just awful. He 324 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 20: said it over and over that he never had a 325 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 20: true backup point guard. Well, guess what whose fault is that? 326 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 3: Yours?
