We you know, we had that like 35 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,959 Speaker 3: eight hour rain dee layer or whatever it was. Every 36 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 3: game had been played, so we knew we were gonna 37 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 3: have to play the one game playoffs. We knew the 38 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 3: Mets had already flown into Cincinnati and we're waiting at. 39 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 6: The hotel before we started that game. 40 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 3: And then we had watched every and that was back 41 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 3: when fantasy football was just kind of starting, and we 42 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 3: had just just done a draft a few weeks earlier, 43 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 3: and we watched every NFL game going into our game. 44 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 3: It was incredible, it was. And then it was a 45 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 3: must win game, so like we got to win tonight, 46 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 3: and we did win. You know went back to sintem 47 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 3: But what an incredible crazy day that was. 48 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 7: Man, it was. 49 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 5: It was like forty five degrees. Some of you guys 50 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 5: had ski caps on. There was like five hundred fans 51 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 5: in the stands. 52 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 8: It was nuts. 53 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 3: It was. It was a grid. They've been tailgating all 54 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 3: day long in tailgames is nine am. You know, I 55 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,239 Speaker 3: think I've never seen so many Miller lifes flying around 56 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 3: with two hundred and fifty fans at Milwaukee County Stadium. 57 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 5: Was incredible, and then unfortunately al lighter happened the next day. 58 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 5: Do you ever walk past him at MLB Network and 59 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 5: just kind of mutter under your breath about him? 60 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 2: Oh? 61 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 3: Oh, I still tell him. I still tell him now. 62 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:44,959 Speaker 3: I still just want you to know a lifelong grudge 63 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 3: against you. Lifelong now, you know, I said, I know 64 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 3: you're a good guy, but it heard still pains me. 65 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 3: That game still pains me, actually does twenty six years later. 66 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,359 Speaker 3: I still think about that night, drives me crazy. 67 00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 4: Let's go back to last night. 68 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,240 Speaker 5: There was such a build up excitement and then kind 69 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 5: of a shot of reality and man Hunter, great, if 70 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 5: you told me going in the Reds would score five 71 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:07,919 Speaker 5: with Hudder on the Mount, I would have felt good, 72 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:09,839 Speaker 5: but Hudter just wasn't Hudder last night. 73 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 3: Well, you know what, I think one thing with the postseason, 74 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,359 Speaker 3: it's like you can't teach experience in the postseason. Tell 75 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,799 Speaker 3: you truth, Lance, I go back to myself in ninety 76 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 3: nine when I struggled that game because I wanted to 77 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 3: do so well. I wanted to I was like, I 78 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 3: felt like a football player, like I'm going to go 79 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 3: take this game. I'm want to hit two home runs. 80 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:29,919 Speaker 3: And I end up having one of my worst games 81 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,079 Speaker 3: of the uero for four, two strikeouts, and I remember saying, man, 82 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 3: if I can get back to the postseason, that atmosphere, 83 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 3: that level of excitement, the adrenaline, it's something that you 84 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 3: don't experience. You don't know what it is until you 85 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 3: experience it. And I was fortunate enough to get back 86 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 3: in two thousand and six and do a lot better 87 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 3: than I did that one game playoff in ninety nine. 88 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 3: When I saw a Hunter green last night, I fought 89 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 3: back to that adrenaline. I thought back to the too. 90 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 3: I fought back to the excitement in the air. And 91 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 3: in baseball, you really have to be able to control 92 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 3: your nervous system. You have to be able to control 93 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 3: your heart beat and get your heart beat down and 94 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 3: be able to really execute. I felt like Hunter Green 95 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 3: last night, with as great of a stuff that he has, 96 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 3: it's just a game. You know, he wanted to do 97 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 3: so well. You could tell he was missing out over 98 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 3: the plate, made more mistakes than he usually makes, and 99 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 3: you know, at times couldn't find where he wanted to 100 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,040 Speaker 3: throw the ball. And I actually think that that had 101 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 3: a lot to do with, you know, the fact that 102 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 3: it was his first time first posting the experience and maybe, 103 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 3: like to say, you know, he couldn't calm down the 104 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:30,919 Speaker 3: way he usually does. 105 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 5: They did eventually get two in the seventh. They get 106 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,479 Speaker 5: three runs in the eighth off the Dodgers' bullpen. Sean, 107 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 5: is that late action? Is that maybe a confidence build? 108 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,919 Speaker 5: They made three relievers throw pitches. Can that be something 109 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 5: that carries over to tonight? 110 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 3: I think so, I really do, you know, And you know, 111 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 3: getting five runs off the Dodgers isn't easy to do, 112 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 3: you know, And I think you know they got some 113 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 3: confidence there late in the game by putting up a 114 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 3: five spot. I think a big thing. I think the 115 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,160 Speaker 3: Achilles heel for the Dodgers is that bullpen. I mean, 116 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 3: if they could find a way to get Yamamoto, you know, 117 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 3: get to Yamamoto early to get him out or also 118 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 3: get his pitch count up where you could get to 119 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 3: that bullpen earlier, you know, then then late in the 120 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 3: game when they did yesterday. You know, if they can 121 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 3: do that and get to that bullpen early and get 122 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 3: to Yamamoto, I think that's going to be the game 123 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:17,719 Speaker 3: plan for tonight. 124 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 5: I hesitate to use the term machine for another team 125 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,840 Speaker 5: when we're talking about teams because the big red machine 126 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 5: was here, but that that Dodger offense, that is a machine. 127 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 3: It's a real machine. I mean, I mean Tommy sent 128 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 3: a message right out the gates, you know, to open 129 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 3: up the game at an absolute missile to right field 130 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 3: off you know, obviously one of the best pitchers in 131 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 3: the game in Hunter Green, you know, and then Bets 132 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 3: is just so good, and Freeman so good, you know, 133 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 3: and munseyed and tioskar Hernandez then showed what he has 134 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 3: by you know, hitting the ball the ballpark again. Tommy 135 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 3: Edmund hit another home run. Key k Hernandez shows that 136 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 3: he you know, he doesn't hit in the regular season 137 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:57,720 Speaker 3: but what the posts he does so top to bottom, Man, 138 00:05:57,839 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 3: that is a tough lineup. 139 00:05:59,200 --> 00:05:59,799 Speaker 8: To dam agate. 140 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 5: All right, let's get to the really important stuff. Tell 141 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 5: me about Jake. Your son got drafted by the Blue Jays. 142 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 5: We talked the last time you were on. Since then, 143 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 5: he played twenty three games at a ball and Dune Eden. Man, 144 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:14,280 Speaker 5: he raked ops of nine to seventy. How much fun 145 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 5: was it watching that? And how was the experience for 146 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:18,159 Speaker 5: him and for you? 147 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 8: Lance? 148 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 3: It's been incredible, Man, I watched every single game. I 149 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 3: was so locked in, you know, so proud of me. 150 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,280 Speaker 3: Three home runs in those games, you know, really hit 151 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 3: the ball, well, drove the baseball. And it's just fun. 152 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 6: Man. 153 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 3: As a dad, to watch your son play pro baseballs 154 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 3: really a dream come true for me, and. 155 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 2: I know my dad. 156 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 3: That was the state of my dad the other day 157 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 3: he was about to turn eighty six. I said, you know, Dad, 158 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 3: what a life you lived. You got to see your 159 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 3: son playing the big leagues for twelve years and now 160 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 3: you get to see your grandson get drafted and play 161 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 3: his first year pro ball. So it's really been a 162 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,279 Speaker 3: neat experience. Lance. It's been very very humbling and touching. 163 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 2: And exciting. 164 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 4: Oh, Sean, I mean how emotional. 165 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:56,600 Speaker 5: I mean, the hair is standing up on arms when 166 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 5: you saying I can hear the emotion in your voice 167 00:06:58,760 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 5: of how powerful it is. 168 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 3: Oh man, it's so powerful.

ABSOLUTELY i, MEAN i saw nothing to indicate That 371 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 2: hunter was about to turn the clock back to Young 372 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 2: hunter where it was all about the throwing and less 373 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 2: about the. Pitching that that's exactly what, happened and he 374 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 2: was overthrowing. Everything and it was clear from the very 375 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 2: first home run that he gave up to Show Heyo 376 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,919 Speaker 2: tani that the moment that, happened he forgot everything that 377 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:43,199 Speaker 2: he had strategically in his. Mind he was spiking his 378 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 2: splitter all the. Time i'm, like oh, boy this is 379 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 2: gonna be this is gonna be, tough and Whenever Terry 380 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 2: francona brough him, Out i'm, like, goosh that might have 381 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:51,399 Speaker 2: been even too late for. 382 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 5: That do you believe they were able to by scraping 383 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 5: together two in the seventh and three in the eighth 384 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 5: and getting to see Three dodge relievers throw at least 385 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,359 Speaker 5: think eighteen pitches. Each do you think that was the 386 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 5: creation of some momentum that is a carryover to. 387 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 2: TONIGHT i absolutely, do BECAUSE i feel like the first 388 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:14,439 Speaker 2: five innings it looked as if The reds were THE 389 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 2: jv team and The dodgers were the varsity and there 390 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 2: was just absolutely nothing that they could do to harm 391 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 2: them in any way on the. Scoreboard and then all 392 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:25,200 Speaker 2: of a sudden they were able to get a few 393 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 2: back and get a few here and then even in 394 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 2: the eighth inning make everybody In Dodger stadium. Sweat and 395 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 2: that for me was the sign, that, look this team 396 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:39,719 Speaker 2: now understands it's still. Baseball playoff baseball is. Different but 397 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 2: at some point you buckle down and you still play nine, 398 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:45,159 Speaker 2: innings you still get three, outs you still you, know 399 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 2: have three, strikes four, balls all that, stuff and it's 400 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 2: the same game that you've known all your. Life and 401 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 2: SO i think that they now can look past the 402 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,160 Speaker 2: lights and see. Success. 403 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 5: YEAH i mean that that moment last night where they've 404 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 5: pulled within, Five Tyler stevens is at the plate that 405 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,280 Speaker 5: the tying run is actually on, deck And tyler works 406 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:06,639 Speaker 5: that long at. BAT i think on the eleventh pitches 407 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:08,840 Speaker 5: he swung a ball for, it maybe did it a 408 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:09,239 Speaker 5: couple of. 409 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:10,640 Speaker 4: Times and at that. 410 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:14,159 Speaker 5: Moment you could feel the uneasiness through THE tv and 411 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 5: radio Of dodger, fans and even it was. Funny it 412 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 5: even felt like people on social media AND i had 413 00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 5: tweeted like the eyeball, emoji like tying run on, deck 414 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 5: and people are like coming back to, it, going wait a, 415 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 5: MINUTE i turned that game. Off The reds have a 416 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 5: chance and they. 417 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 2: Did, Yeah AND i almost would have told Key Brian 418 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 2: hayes walking up, there, like, hey keep it back on your, 419 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 2: shoulder you don't even think about or, nothing because dudes 420 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,680 Speaker 2: having a hard time hitting the strike soon no matter 421 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:45,440 Speaker 2: who it. WAS i, mean Obviously henriquez really had the biggest, 422 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 2: problem and that was kind of the reason that The 423 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,440 Speaker 2: reds even got to where they. Were But Jack, dryer 424 00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:53,439 Speaker 2: who throughout the regular season was a pretty good relief, 425 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:56,879 Speaker 2: pitcher he even experienced the command. PROBLEMS i think it 426 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 2: was very, contagious and that pop up from Keep Ryan 427 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 2: hayes just sort of broke the. 428 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 5: Spell tito's decision to go With Zach ltel tonight Over 429 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:09,360 Speaker 5: nicolodolo and or other. 430 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 4: Options what do you think about? 431 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 2: It don't love? It don't love that they are going 432 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:17,640 Speaker 2: into a must, win can't lose game With Andrew abbott 433 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 2: sitting on the, bench AND i understand there's a point 434 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 2: to be had for him to be available For game, 435 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,639 Speaker 2: three but there is no game three right. Now you 436 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 2: have to Win game two for there to be A game, 437 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:31,920 Speaker 2: Three so there's no point of making plans for something 438 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 2: that doesn't currently. Exist and beyond the starting pitching thing of, 439 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:39,920 Speaker 2: this like the Whole niclodolo of it. All it seems 440 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 2: as though they're looking At nicklodolo as the key lefty 441 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:46,400 Speaker 2: in the bullpen rather than somebody who can give them, 442 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,919 Speaker 2: length somebody who should be a starter for, them as 443 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:52,400 Speaker 2: somebody who is one of the aces of this. Staff 444 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,439 Speaker 2: AND i understand it's because he did that relief appearance On, 445 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 2: sunday but even, still if you pitch him tomorrow or 446 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,879 Speaker 2: something like, that it looks like he could probably be 447 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 2: the starting. Pitcher but we're looking at him more in 448 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:07,879 Speaker 2: a weird. Sense it sort of feels like there's just 449 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 2: a lot of all, right let's really really hope that 450 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 2: this guy in Zacly tel is going to get on 451 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 2: the mound and not give up a billion solo home 452 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 2: runs like he has in different, Starts and let's hope 453 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:23,640 Speaker 2: that he has his good start where he has been 454 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:26,879 Speaker 2: a coin flip where one day he's real good and 455 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 2: the next day that he's. Not so we're really hoping 456 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,920 Speaker 2: we get good zactly tell for however many innings you can, expect. 457 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:36,400 Speaker 5: Does it feel like first sign of having said all, 458 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,440 Speaker 5: that does it feel like first sign of? Trouble, tonight 459 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:42,400 Speaker 5: does it become a cavalcade of some combination Of, Lodolo, Burns, 460 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 5: martinez guys Like dad. 461 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 2: Gotta BE i don't think that there's a wait and 462 00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:51,439 Speaker 2: see if he starts giving up base runners or something like. 463 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:55,479 Speaker 2: That he's been very good about limiting the whip on the. 464 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 2: Season but the big problem is the home, run and 465 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 2: that's exactly what The dogs specialize that at. Home we 466 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 2: saw that last. Night we saw that a lot whenever 467 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:08,240 Speaker 2: they swept The reds back In. August that series at 468 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:11,400 Speaker 2: least looked like a mirror image of the first five 469 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 2: innings of what happened last. Night and so If Zach 470 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,120 Speaker 2: lyttel is going to start doing, that if you start 471 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 2: seeing pitches that creep out over the middle of the, 472 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,639 Speaker 2: plate that's When Tarry francona's got to get the bullpen. 473 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:26,160 Speaker 2: Rolling and quite, frankly THE a squad is, Available Cantheon, 474 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,639 Speaker 2: pagan they're. Good Chase burns is, Ready nicolodolo is. Ready 475 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 2: there's no reason to Keep Zach letel out there longer 476 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:34,480 Speaker 2: than he should. 477 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,680 Speaker 5: Be Jeff carr checking in a couple more minutes talk 478 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,640 Speaker 5: On Red's Baseball locked On Red's, Podcast all, Right let's 479 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 5: go to the. Lineup matt McClain And Kee Brian hayes 480 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 5: remain in the lineup, Tonight lux And stewart join the lineup, 481 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 5: tonight and Do haar And marte out of the. Lineup 482 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 5: your assessment and thoughts on construction of said lineup, Tonight. 483 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:57,200 Speaker 2: It seemed as though at least in game, one there 484 00:22:57,240 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 2: was a continuation of what we saw it to where 485 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:00,880 Speaker 2: the end of the, season where it As Terry francona 486 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:04,919 Speaker 2: was prioritizing run prevention over run. PRODUCTION i don't know 487 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 2: what this lineup is because it's not either. One they 488 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 2: Move Astin hayes the right field where he hasn't played 489 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 2: all a, year and they Leave Will benson out of 490 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 2: the lineup against the right handed pitcher where he's got 491 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 2: the Power like it feels, like if, anything if you're 492 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,800 Speaker 2: going to try at all to keep up with This dodgers, 493 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,399 Speaker 2: offense you need your power bats in the, lineup and 494 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 2: so for him to be sitting on the bench when 495 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 2: this game gets going just doesn't feel right to. Me 496 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 2: and so Getting South stewart into the game is, good 497 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,920 Speaker 2: but leaving Key Brian hayes in the game ISN'T i 498 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,879 Speaker 2: would feel a lot better If Key Brian hayes was 499 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 2: a defensive replacement later on in the ballgame as opposed 500 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:46,440 Speaker 2: to right. Now and if we're gonna get really stretchy 501 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:48,640 Speaker 2: and really like you gotta squinch your eyes really hard 502 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 2: to see the, vision Put South stewart at second, Base 503 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 2: Put steer at third. Base you, KNOW i think there's 504 00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 2: some options here to get guys, in or may put second, 505 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 2: base But stewart at, First steart, Third stewart, third you, 506 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 2: know whatever it might, Be just limit the number of 507 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 2: glove first guys you have in this, lineup because it 508 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:11,639 Speaker 2: feels like there's two halves to this ball club right. 509 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,919 Speaker 2: Now one half is good at, fielding one half is 510 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,200 Speaker 2: good at, hitting and there is no half that is 511 00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 2: good at. Both and that's kind of a. Problem and 512 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 2: it feels as though he's trying to mix. Everything BUT 513 00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:24,639 Speaker 2: i don't know that that's really going to. Help as 514 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 2: much as we want. 515 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:28,639 Speaker 5: To final thought on, SOMETHING i believe we're both in 516 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 5: unison on and they clearly they don't hit a lot 517 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,200 Speaker 5: of home. Runs and if you don't hit a lot 518 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 5: of home, runs then you got to do something to 519 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:41,359 Speaker 5: create some offense and to me, disappointing baffling picked the. 520 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:44,440 Speaker 5: WORD i don't get how this team has become such 521 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 5: a station to station team on the, basis. 522 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 2: Yeah you got to. RUN i mean When ellie was 523 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 2: on first, BASE i believe it was last. Night i'm 524 00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:55,159 Speaker 2: trying to remember which any. WAS i want to say 525 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,679 Speaker 2: it was the sixth AND i think he ended up 526 00:24:57,720 --> 00:24:59,679 Speaker 2: coming around to score a couple of hours. Later BUT 527 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,640 Speaker 2: i never even looked to steal second base with, Him 528 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:05,879 Speaker 2: and that makes no sense. Whatsoever you gotta get these guys, 529 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 2: going if it's a stolen, base if it's a run and, 530 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 2: hit if it's a, Something you've got to be aggressive 531 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 2: on the base. Paths and you, know, statistically according To Baseball, 532 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 2: savant The reds have actually been pretty efficient with their 533 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 2: base running this. Year but as much as they are 534 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 2: a top ten, team last, year where we were kind 535 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 2: of complaining a little bit at their lack of, efficiency 536 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 2: they were a top three team because they were so. 537 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 2: Aggressive they really scaled back the aggressiveness this, year AND 538 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:37,879 Speaker 2: i think it was more to their detriment than they. 539 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:41,920 Speaker 5: Realized All, right the show is locked On reds.

McClain here 665 00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:21,320 Speaker 5: Is sam Le. 666 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 9: Cure for, today you want to put your best defensive 667 00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 9: team on the, field because if The reds get into a, 668 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:31,080 Speaker 9: slugfest they're not going to win. It for, me these 669 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 9: games need to be four to, two three to, two you, 670 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 9: know something below what the winning team scores, five, Right 671 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 9: if you start to get above that, number then then. 672 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:42,720 Speaker 2: The reds just can't outslug The. Dodgers and that's the 673 00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 2: way that it. 674 00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 9: Is but SO i want your best defensive team on 675 00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:50,320 Speaker 9: the field versus offensive team because that one run that 676 00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:54,000 Speaker 9: Maybe Gavin lux, playing which he won't tonight because it's 677 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 9: the left. Hander but you, know you put him in 678 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 9: the left field to keep his bath planned. Hard you 679 00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:00,400 Speaker 9: put him in left so his bats in the, lineup and, 680 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:03,280 Speaker 9: yes he may get you a couple, hits but does 681 00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 9: he let a couple runs in because he's not great 682 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 9: and left. Field each one of those runs is so 683 00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 9: crucial for The reds because they need to play close 684 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 9: games to win. 685 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 5: Them, sam look, here last night comes down to run. Suppression, 686 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 5: WELL i mean there's two ways of looking at. It 687 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 5: you can make the argument The dodgers are so dang good, 688 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,840 Speaker 5: offensively you're not going to suppress their, runs you're gonna 689 00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:25,560 Speaker 5: have to. Score and so the counter to the argument 690 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:27,959 Speaker 5: of like going with your glove guys is go with 691 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,400 Speaker 5: more of your bats and figure it out as you, 692 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:32,160 Speaker 5: go or maybe go with that to start the, game 693 00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:36,080 Speaker 5: transition later into more of you your gloves. LATER i get, 694 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:38,880 Speaker 5: That and the argument inside of that, Is, OKAY i 695 00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 5: would buy into going with a glove guy who's not 696 00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 5: hitting at one, spot but you can't go glove guy at, 697 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 5: second glove guy at third if neither one is. 698 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 4: HITTING i get that. 699 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:52,200 Speaker 5: ARGUMENT i, do and MAYBE i think it is to 700 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 5: a certain extent an indictment of what they. Believe tito 701 00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 5: believes in terms of fielding For South stewart as the 702 00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:00,120 Speaker 5: second basement And gavin lux is the second. Basement but 703 00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 5: people keep asking Why tito's doing. IT i, mean how 704 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 5: much more clear does he need to. Be he's Playing 705 00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 5: matt McClain Because matt McClain is a good.

Briefcase 707 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:19,480 Speaker 5: he's Playing matt McClain because he's a good. Defender he 708 00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:22,080 Speaker 5: hasn't run from, that he hasn't created a mystery from. 709 00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:22,200 Speaker 6: That. 710 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:24,839 Speaker 5: Hell the other night he, SAID i need somebody Meeting 711 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:26,879 Speaker 5: matt McClain who can catch, it throw it and make 712 00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:28,439 Speaker 5: sure it gets to the right base every. 713 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:29,879 Speaker 4: Time And matt does. 714 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 5: That and the people who Want Santiago, espinal have you 715 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:35,960 Speaker 5: Seen Santiago?

Playoffs first things, first The reds for all 755 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:07,000 Speaker 5: the build up and the hype and the drama and 756 00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:09,800 Speaker 5: the excitement to see What showhy. Did on the fourth 757 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 5: pitch in the bottom of the first, inning that the 758 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:14,239 Speaker 5: sound of that ball leaving the. Bat it went in 759 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,960 Speaker 5: in one hundred miles an, hour and it left off 760 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:20,640 Speaker 5: the bat at one seventeen to, seven one hundred and 761 00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:24,400 Speaker 5: seventeen point seven miles an, hour and it sounded like 762 00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:28,480 Speaker 5: a redwood tree like snapping in the, forest just that 763 00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:32,800 Speaker 5: crack of the, bat and you were, like, Whoa, okay 764 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:36,239 Speaker 5: we're not In kansas. Anymore they're IN la and these 765 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:40,160 Speaker 5: are The. Dodgers and then in the third inning the, boom, 766 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:44,839 Speaker 5: boom And i'm telling you the ball the balls were 767 00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:49,320 Speaker 5: being hit so hard off Of Hunter. GREEN i was almost, 768 00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:52,080 Speaker 5: jumping you know how when you have to you sit 769 00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 5: up in your seat when you see something when you're 770 00:37:54,560 --> 00:38:00,000 Speaker 5: watching the. Game the sound leaving the bat was very. 771 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 5: TROUBLING i follow, uh Because i'm a. DORK i follow 772 00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,160 Speaker 5: a website Called Baseball, savant and they will track the 773 00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:10,799 Speaker 5: exit velocity of riverball hit during a game they're in three. 774 00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:16,880 Speaker 5: Innings in three innings last, night The dodgers hit eleven 775 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:22,480 Speaker 5: balls at one hundred miles an hour or harder off the. 776 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:28,880 Speaker 5: BAT i mean it was batting practice. Plus AND i 777 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:33,799 Speaker 5: tweeted it at one point this seems. Unfair and it 778 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:37,440 Speaker 5: wasn't like a. Complaint it was like a, sigh, like, man, 779 00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:42,080 Speaker 5: this this seems. Unfair they're just so they're so good 780 00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:47,560 Speaker 5: if if you know WHAT i. Mean but as today is, 781 00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:52,120 Speaker 5: unfolded two thoughts come to. Mind first Thing i'm gonna 782 00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:55,240 Speaker 5: bring UP i do not bring up as sour. GRAPES 783 00:38:55,760 --> 00:39:00,520 Speaker 5: i don't BECAUSE i will not use the excuse how 784 00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:04,160 Speaker 5: much money The dodgers. Spend, yet if you follow, baseball 785 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:06,719 Speaker 5: follow The. Reds in an hour watching this, SERIES i 786 00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:11,319 Speaker 5: think it's fairly obvious at some point the payroll disparity 787 00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:14,359 Speaker 5: has come up in. Conversation you have felt, it you've seen, 788 00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:16,400 Speaker 5: it you've read. IT i don't have any doubt about. 789 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:18,600 Speaker 5: That And i'm not even gonna get into the boring. 790 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:21,920 Speaker 5: Numbers let's just say The dodgers spend a gazillion dollars 791 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 5: on payroll and The reds. Don't that's a talking, point 792 00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 5: and that's a. Problem it shouldn't be that. Way and 793 00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:36,799 Speaker 5: AGAIN i don't bring that up to feel sorry for 794 00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,800 Speaker 5: The reds or say it's just not fair The dodgers 795 00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:42,239 Speaker 5: spend too much. MONEY i bring it up as that 796 00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:47,320 Speaker 5: shouldn't be a topic talking point for the sport because 797 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,800 Speaker 5: when you watch THE, nfl and you watch THE, nba 798 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 5: and you watch THE, nhl and you watch THE, mls 799 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:59,240 Speaker 5: at no point do you, think, here read or feel 800 00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 5: the storyline of how much that team spending versus how 801 00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:05,880 Speaker 5: much that team. Spending and the reason is obvious because 802 00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 5: there's a salary cap in all those. Sports and this 803 00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:10,920 Speaker 5: isn't really as much as to drag everybody into a 804 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:13,359 Speaker 5: debate about a sary cap and a lockout that's. Coming 805 00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:18,440 Speaker 5: it's just do you need a better example than watching this, 806 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 5: series because everybody at some point has thought or, read, 807 00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:28,440 Speaker 5: man look how much money The dodgers are spending on that. Team, 808 00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:31,319 Speaker 5: man think of what The reds could do if they 809 00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:36,160 Speaker 5: had that kind of. Money you can't run a. Sport 810 00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:40,279 Speaker 5: you can't keep running a sport that. Way anybody hear 811 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 5: me on this five, one, three, seven, four the big one, 812 00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:47,640 Speaker 5: again not as a woe is. Us it's more as 813 00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:50,200 Speaker 5: simply the talking point of your. Sport and if You're Rob, 814 00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 5: manfred you gotta know. 815 00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:51,719 Speaker 2: That you just. 816 00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:55,360 Speaker 5: Can't you can't go into series where people talk about 817 00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:58,440 Speaker 5: how much a team spent on its, players because no 818 00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:01,120 Speaker 5: other sport does. That at no point did you sit 819 00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:04,200 Speaker 5: during The Bengals broncos game going, ball, man if only 820 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:07,839 Speaker 5: The bengals spent as much as The. Broncos no point 821 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:10,480 Speaker 5: do you watch THE nba and, said, Well Golden state 822 00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:14,080 Speaker 5: just had Or minnesota just had some more money to 823 00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:20,799 Speaker 5: match The celtics and The.

Game AND i think it's accelerated 878 00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:41,440 Speaker 5: because we're in the postseason where teams are like screw, 879 00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:44,080 Speaker 5: it starters going like two or three that here come 880 00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:46,799 Speaker 5: the arms blow up in the bullpen, Gate give me 881 00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:49,000 Speaker 5: another one hundred mile an hour guy, in just one 882 00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:53,080 Speaker 5: after another after another after.

It i'd lower the mound by six inches 898 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:40,960 Speaker 5: And i'd move the mound back at least a. 899 00:45:41,080 --> 00:45:44,320 Speaker 4: Foot this is getting, ridiculous and. 900 00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:48,000 Speaker 5: It's reaching a point where you have to look at 901 00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:51,719 Speaker 5: the product and say how entertaining is it To and 902 00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:56,000 Speaker 5: the reaction to all this has become if pitching is 903 00:45:56,120 --> 00:46:00,319 Speaker 5: so damn dominant and it's so hard to get a, 904 00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:03,160 Speaker 5: hit the equations become pretty easy for. 905 00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:05,320 Speaker 4: Teams they, Say, man. 906 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:10,160 Speaker 5: It's really really hard for us to get multiple hits 907 00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:13,000 Speaker 5: in an inning to try to score a. Run so 908 00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:16,839 Speaker 5: let's just try to hit a home. Run one swing 909 00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:21,360 Speaker 5: of the bat equals one. Run good luck trying to 910 00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:24,759 Speaker 5: get like three singles in an inning to score a. 911 00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:28,680 Speaker 5: Run so it's thrown that approach to the game out of. 912 00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:29,080 Speaker 4: Whack. 913 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:32,719 Speaker 5: Lord the average major league hitter in baseball right now 914 00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:34,799 Speaker 5: hit TWO i think it was two forty. Six the 915 00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:39,120 Speaker 5: average hitter hit two forty six this. Year imagine what 916 00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:42,000 Speaker 5: the league batting average would be if if they didn't have. 917 00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:44,400 Speaker 4: The shift in. Place imagine what. 918 00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:47,600 Speaker 5: The batting average would be if official scores didn't bend 919 00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:52,960 Speaker 5: over backwards to call like everything a. HIT i, mean 920 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:54,719 Speaker 5: how many times do you see a ball who The 921 00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:55,440 Speaker 5: reds game over the? 922 00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:56,480 Speaker 4: Weekend that ball to left? 923 00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:58,920 Speaker 5: Field The brewer left, field or he came running in 924 00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:00,520 Speaker 5: and it hit HIS goalvi at pop down and. 925 00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:02,560 Speaker 4: They rolled it a.

In that's not a. 927 00:47:03,880 --> 00:47:07,160 Speaker 5: Hit but you talk about a league batting average at 928 00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:10,560 Speaker 5: two forty. Six if they allowed the shift and if 929 00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:14,399 Speaker 5: official scores actually said that's an error and not a, hit. 930 00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:19,040 Speaker 5: HUH i shudder to think what the league batting average would. 931 00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:23,840 Speaker 5: Be but at some point it's just not. Sustainable and 932 00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:26,840 Speaker 5: again it's accelerated in the postseason because you have the 933 00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:29,279 Speaker 5: opportunity to just bail on a starter after two or 934 00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:29,960 Speaker 5: three innings and. 935 00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:31,440 Speaker 4: Just go, bullpen, bullpen bullpen. 936 00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:37,840 Speaker 5: Bullpen but does anybody find yesterday it was an average 937 00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:41,200 Speaker 5: of twelve per team over nine.

Form what pictures you're doing right? Now 940 00:47:49,200 --> 00:47:51,319 Speaker 5: Mason miller threw one hundred and four and a half 941 00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:56,120 Speaker 5: miles an hour. Today what they're doing Isn't i'm not 942 00:47:56,160 --> 00:48:02,360 Speaker 5: gonna say, unfair it's the.

Wlw dan 1033 00:52:15,600 --> 00:52:19,279 Speaker 5: is a longtime baseball analyst For, fangrafts talking about the 1034 00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:23,359 Speaker 5: idea of where baseball may be headed in terms of 1035 00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:25,080 Speaker 5: salary cap listen to What dan. 1036 00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:32,160 Speaker 13: Said there are some serious revenue issues between teams to look, 1037 00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:35,919 Speaker 13: At but the owners themselves also don't really look at 1038 00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:41,080 Speaker 13: it as a parody thing to lower. Salaries, primarily they're 1039 00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:44,120 Speaker 13: you're just in lowering salaries is to lower salaries because 1040 00:52:44,160 --> 00:52:47,520 Speaker 13: there are ways to distribute revenue more fairly in. Baseball 1041 00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:52,360 Speaker 13: my personal, preference which the owners would not approve, of 1042 00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:56,680 Speaker 13: is that revenue sharing is based not on the basis 1043 00:52:56,719 --> 00:53:00,560 Speaker 13: of small market teams that have low, revenue but small 1044 00:53:00,640 --> 00:53:04,120 Speaker 13: market teams that win, games so that the more games 1045 00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:07,800 Speaker 13: a small market team, wins the more of the sharing 1046 00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:10,600 Speaker 13: revenue they. Get that kind of gives them an incentive 1047 00:53:10,640 --> 00:53:13,680 Speaker 13: because even if The reds have less money than The, 1048 00:53:13,719 --> 00:53:17,759 Speaker 13: dodgers which they realistically always, WILL i think that when 1049 00:53:17,760 --> 00:53:20,960 Speaker 13: you have a situation where teams really get paid to 1050 00:53:21,080 --> 00:53:25,080 Speaker 13: win more games when they're small market, teams you can 1051 00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:26,640 Speaker 13: make a fairer game in that. 1052 00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:28,359 Speaker 2: Way if The reds. 1053 00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:30,520 Speaker 13: Win a lot more, games got a lot more, revenue 1054 00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:32,799 Speaker 13: and eighty five, wins say that they got, it say 1055 00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:36,520 Speaker 13: sixty five, wins that's a huge economic. Incentive you turn 1056 00:53:37,480 --> 00:53:40,640 Speaker 13: that into an investment for the. Team because The, rays 1057 00:53:40,880 --> 00:53:43,880 Speaker 13: they don't really get that rewarded when they win a 1058 00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:46,040 Speaker 13: lot of. Games they don't really make that much more 1059 00:53:46,040 --> 00:53:48,520 Speaker 13: money winning ninety seven games than they do seventy seven, 1060 00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:49,400 Speaker 13: games and that is a. 1061 00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:51,960 Speaker 4: Problem BUT i think fundamentally. 1062 00:53:51,280 --> 00:53:55,120 Speaker 13: The owners see the revenue issue more as we would 1063 00:53:55,160 --> 00:53:59,320 Speaker 13: like to pay the players, less then let's restribute money 1064 00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:02,000 Speaker 13: more fairly in baseball the revenues we already. Have so 1065 00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:04,359 Speaker 13: it's kind of going to be a, mess AND i 1066 00:54:04,400 --> 00:54:07,080 Speaker 13: think we are going to have a lockout that's more 1067 00:54:07,080 --> 00:54:09,960 Speaker 13: significant than last. TIME i don't think players are super 1068 00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:12,000 Speaker 13: happy with how everything worked out in the. 1069 00:54:12,080 --> 00:54:15,600 Speaker 5: End danzenborski earlier this morning With Ken.

It the concept is 1344 01:07:22,640 --> 01:07:25,040 Speaker 5: if you want to, say An, american how can you 1345 01:07:25,120 --> 01:07:27,520 Speaker 5: cap the earnings of?

Before 1359 01:08:11,120 --> 01:08:16,439 Speaker 5: how long before that contingent says something in terms of 1360 01:08:16,479 --> 01:08:19,760 Speaker 5: speaking up about the disparity and how so much of 1361 01:08:19,760 --> 01:08:24,720 Speaker 5: the revenue is going to sow few. Players and in the, 1362 01:08:24,880 --> 01:08:29,160 Speaker 5: end if there are more teams that are, competitive then 1363 01:08:29,200 --> 01:08:35,360 Speaker 5: there's more, interest more, fans more, viewing more, attending and more. 1364 01:08:35,680 --> 01:08:39,200 Speaker 5: Money and every Time i'm gonna remind every conversation we 1365 01:08:39,240 --> 01:08:42,080 Speaker 5: have this offseason as we head towards the lockout of 1366 01:08:42,120 --> 01:08:45,040 Speaker 5: the twenty twenty seven, season and if you were asking 1367 01:08:45,040 --> 01:08:46,880 Speaker 5: me IF i were gonna bet they played baseball in 1368 01:08:46,880 --> 01:08:49,679 Speaker 5: twenty seven or they don't play baseball at, All i'm 1369 01:08:49,720 --> 01:08:52,240 Speaker 5: not so.

Cap if 1381 01:09:33,760 --> 01:09:36,439 Speaker 5: the cap is three fifty or three seventy five or, 1382 01:09:36,479 --> 01:09:39,800 Speaker 5: four then the floor has got to be a pick 1383 01:09:39,840 --> 01:09:42,920 Speaker 5: your number one fifty or one seventy. Five because there's 1384 01:09:42,920 --> 01:09:46,679 Speaker 5: a lot of teams who don't want. That they don't 1385 01:09:46,680 --> 01:09:49,919 Speaker 5: want to have to spend more.

Now i'm gonna 1391 01:10:04,600 --> 01:10:07,519 Speaker 5: guess it's around one hundred and forty six. Million Then i'd, 1392 01:10:07,520 --> 01:10:09,519 Speaker 5: say all, right then our floor is starting in twenty twenty, 1393 01:10:09,560 --> 01:10:11,360 Speaker 5: eight when we get back to playing, baseball will be 1394 01:10:11,400 --> 01:10:13,639 Speaker 5: one hundred and fifty. Million and we'll go from there 1395 01:10:13,880 --> 01:10:16,040 Speaker 5: and the other side of, this AND i imagine we'll 1396 01:10:16,080 --> 01:10:18,800 Speaker 5: talk more about where the game offensively is going after 1397 01:10:19,040 --> 01:10:23,720 Speaker 5: we watch a postseason dominated by. PITCHING i don't know 1398 01:10:23,760 --> 01:10:26,719 Speaker 5: an answer on that because if you're a, pitcher you're, saying, 1399 01:10:27,080 --> 01:10:31,439 Speaker 5: so because we're so, dominant you're gonna do something to 1400 01:10:31,520 --> 01:10:34,800 Speaker 5: make it easier to. Hit, now the counter would be 1401 01:10:34,800 --> 01:10:36,840 Speaker 5: in THE, nfl how many rule changes do you make 1402 01:10:36,880 --> 01:10:38,559 Speaker 5: for the offense before the defense? 1403 01:10:38,720 --> 01:10:39,680 Speaker 4: Is what are you doing to? 1404 01:10:39,760 --> 01:10:43,360 Speaker 5: US i, Mean i've often brought up The Mickey mouse 1405 01:10:43,400 --> 01:10:46,240 Speaker 5: notion of like THE nascar version of a restrict, plate 1406 01:10:46,720 --> 01:10:49,920 Speaker 5: where you, say all, right you can't throw harder than 1407 01:10:51,160 --> 01:10:53,760 Speaker 5: ninety eight miles an, hour and every time a pitch 1408 01:10:53,840 --> 01:10:56,160 Speaker 5: goes over ninety eight it counts as a. BALL i, 1409 01:10:56,200 --> 01:10:59,240 Speaker 5: mean think of how ridiculous that. Is or you GET 1410 01:10:59,439 --> 01:11:01,920 Speaker 5: x number of pitches to us that are one hundred 1411 01:11:02,000 --> 01:11:05,559 Speaker 5: plus miles AND i, mean it can't reach that, point can? 1412 01:11:05,680 --> 01:11:09,800 Speaker 5: It and yet what is going to swing. 1413 01:11:09,560 --> 01:11:11,160 Speaker 4: The balance back to the offense? 1414 01:11:13,479 --> 01:11:18,080 Speaker 5: Again yesterday it was a record for the rate of 1415 01:11:18,240 --> 01:11:23,640 Speaker 5: strikeouts in the modern era of.

Four there was another with twenty, one and 1418 01:11:31,600 --> 01:11:37,080 Speaker 5: one with. Nineteen if if your league batting average is 1419 01:11:37,080 --> 01:11:43,040 Speaker 5: two forty five and you're striking out that, much, yes 1420 01:11:43,080 --> 01:11:50,080 Speaker 5: there's the exceptions of The Aaron judge Or Cal riley 1421 01:11:50,160 --> 01:11:53,479 Speaker 5: who hit home runs in our big offensive.
