You read him at Fox nineteen dot com. 14 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 8: You get Charlie Chalkboard email to you daily free through substack, 15 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:47,879 Speaker 8: and my first cup of coffee this morning was enjoyed 16 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:51,360 Speaker 8: listening to the Power Stacks podcast with my first guest 17 00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 8: and Brian Geesenslaw. For more on all of this, let's 18 00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 8: welcome in Charlie Goldsmith. Charlie, I wonder based on the 19 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:00,720 Speaker 8: time difference, I'm not sure, but with everybody's still buzzing 20 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 8: about hockey, where there are Reds players with eyeballs on 21 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:07,279 Speaker 8: the game yesterday morning, there. 22 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 4: Are multiple levels of I guess sporting event, you could say. 23 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,399 Speaker 4: And I've watched a lot of Olympic events and such 24 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 4: with the team over the years. But the sound was 25 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 4: on yesterday when Team USA was getting it done. And 26 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 4: I don't know that. I've honestly seen a lot of 27 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 4: sporting events in that clubhouse. I don't remember the sound 28 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:26,480 Speaker 4: being on. I know the heck of the moment. 29 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 8: Oh man, no doubt, no doubt, heck of a day 30 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:31,400 Speaker 8: for Matt McLain yesterday, A couple of hits, hit the 31 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 8: ball the other way. I know it's just a game, 32 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:35,960 Speaker 8: but man, I would think a positive day's got to 33 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 8: be a big day for Matt McClain early in spring. 34 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 4: So that's the million dollar question, maybe the lingering question 35 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 4: that'll define the season. And I always go back to 36 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 4: the fact that McLain had a terrific year in spring 37 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 4: training last year as well. I think he was their 38 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 4: best hitter in the Cactus League. So I talked to 39 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 4: Terry Francona some about that yesterday, about can you actually 40 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 4: build up confidence and how you view McLain and whether 41 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 4: or not he can hit seconds when the season starts 42 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 4: based on what you see during spring training, And the 43 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 4: answer is basically, we'll see, Like there is no good answer. 44 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 4: There is no headline on Matt McLean right now. It's 45 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 4: just They hope that he can build up that momentum 46 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 4: and rhythm and timing. How much to read into that, 47 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,519 Speaker 4: you know, we probably shouldn't have last year this year, 48 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 4: we'll see, but certainly a nice two nice hits the 49 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 4: other way in his spring training debut. 50 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 8: Start, What are the storylines about this team in the offseason? 51 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 8: Has been improving the defense? Leaning into their defense, Charlie, 52 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 8: what would you say to the fan out there that 53 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 8: maybe rolls their eyes and says, well, all that's well 54 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 8: and good, But what about the errors that Ellie made 55 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:45,799 Speaker 8: a shortstop. 56 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 4: When the Reds did the deep dive into their defense 57 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 4: last October. The conclusion that the coaching evaluations and that 58 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 4: the numbers told them was that Ellie's defense was suffering 59 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 4: because of his quad, just like his power. They chalk 60 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 4: that up to the quad. They felt like, even if 61 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 4: you isolate the sample size when he was healthy, that 62 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 4: he was where they wanted him to be. Now is 63 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:15,919 Speaker 4: that good enough? Who knows? We'll see. There's a specific 64 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 4: plan in place that I find really interesting. Like it 65 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 4: used to be, he had to work on charging balls 66 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 4: to his left and on his throwing mechanics, Like that's done. 67 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 4: What this brings about for him is situational defense. They're 68 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:31,639 Speaker 4: giving him specific situations, Bellingers running down the line for 69 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 4: up a run. What's the timing of how you approach 70 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 4: this play? A lot of that experience stuff and how 71 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 4: you play the game has been what they've recognized is 72 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 4: something they need to drill on with him. But how 73 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 4: he does defensively, I think might impact the floor and 74 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 4: the ceiling from a consistency perspective of this team as 75 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 4: much as any other individual player development case. 76 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 8: Let's go to the outfield slash bench. How does Dame 77 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 8: Meyers fit into this roster equation in your mind? 78 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 4: So let's start with Fredell of course, because that's freedole. 79 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 4: They want to get more days off than he had 80 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 4: last year. One of the the flaws of the roster 81 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 4: was there were times where they just didn't have a 82 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 4: backup center fielder, and I was told on like November one, 83 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 4: we need centerfield depth. So obviously Benson will now be 84 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 4: in position to make the team. They go out and 85 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 4: trade for Dane Myers. Fredell might even get a bit 86 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 4: of a time and left Martal get a splash of 87 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 4: time in center. How all of these pieces moving together 88 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:35,839 Speaker 4: will cement what Myers' role specifically looks like. He's also 89 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,719 Speaker 4: competing for a spot with Blake Dune. I look at 90 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 4: it as there's one spot for a right handed backup center 91 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 4: fielder between Blake Done, between Dane Myers, throw Re Tigns 92 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 4: in there. Maybe he can play center. But he's an 93 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 4: interesting guy. He'll be a fascinating got to watch this spring. 94 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 4: But Myers is the favorite to be that backup center 95 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 4: fielder because he's a true playmaker and because he is 96 00:04:58,040 --> 00:04:58,600 Speaker 4: a track. 97 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 8: Record of crushing one two years, Kbrian Hayes has hit 98 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 8: two thirty four, five thirty six. 99 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:04,720 Speaker 5: Ops, Charlie. 100 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 8: Are they making a concession that he's just a damn 101 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 8: good glove or do they believe there's more offense to 102 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 8: draw out of him? 103 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,919 Speaker 4: This is literally the next story idea on my list. 104 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,919 Speaker 4: It's a trade. It's a trade that I still have 105 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 4: questions about because and when I watched him, and I 106 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,720 Speaker 4: haven't talked to Cabrian about this yet. Literally that's my 107 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 4: plan this week, and I'll talk to the Reds front 108 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 4: office and coaching staff as well. But when I see Cabrian, 109 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 4: I just see someone who doesn't have enough muscle to 110 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 4: do damage when he's physically in position to do damage, 111 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 4: not in terms of just a muscle on his body, 112 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 4: but just in terms of when he makes contact at 113 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 4: that point, like he just hasn't shown that oof. And 114 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 4: that of course is the sample SASM going off from 115 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 4: last year, and I mean taking Forard, you will just 116 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,479 Speaker 4: whatever you're seeing from him this year in spring as well. 117 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 4: They need him to hit because he's their third baseman, 118 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 4: and there because south Stewart won't be playing as much third, 119 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 4: and because we love Geno, you know, we think very 120 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 4: highly of him. In the season, He's going to have 121 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 4: Gino at third base is going to be something that 122 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 4: you might not want to see a ton of this year, 123 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 4: just in terms of he's a thirty five year old. Yeah, 124 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 4: defensively the last few season. Backing up with that, what 125 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 4: I've seen in camp from Suarez, so Hayes is their 126 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 4: third basement. There's a plan in place. They're hoping, honestly 127 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 4: that a change of scenery just makes him feel more 128 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 4: home here than he was in Pittsburgh. But there's a 129 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 4: lot there and I'm interested to learn more. 130 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 8: Charlie Goldsmith talking Reds, Charlie's chalkboard and must read tell 131 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,720 Speaker 8: me about Hunter Green expanding his repertoire. 132 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, so it's funny, Like I joke with Hunter, like 133 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 4: every year we sit at the same table in the 134 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 4: Red Clubhouse and he tells me about the new pitch 135 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 4: he's working on. And you know, first there was a 136 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 4: change up and that never stuck that slop and it 137 00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 4: was a splitter, which developing that splitter is truly the 138 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 4: difference that led to Hunter Green pitching at a not 139 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,919 Speaker 4: cy Young level, but like top five Cy Young level 140 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 4: in twenty twenty four before he got hurt, because it 141 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 4: finally gave him a tool to slow down left handed hits. 142 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 4: So Hunter also recognized that he needed kind of something 143 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 4: else to separate off that fastball to the limits of 144 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 4: the heart contact. So now he's got this two seam fastball. 145 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 4: And the difference, of course, obviously is it's the first 146 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:31,239 Speaker 4: time in his career that he's ever tweaked a version 147 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 4: of his fastball in this way. Like, obviously, a two 148 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 4: steamed fastball is much faster than a change for a 149 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 4: splitter like this will be a different look from Hunter 150 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 4: than anything he's ever shown, and it'll be something that 151 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 4: he'd only use that would get five to twenty five 152 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 4: percent of the time. But it was the thing for 153 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 4: him this offseason, and we've seen in the past what 154 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 4: a new pitch can do for Hunter. He clearly went 155 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 4: in the lab and said, this is exactly what I need. 156 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 4: And knowing Hunter, I'm sure the goal with that pitch 157 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 4: is to pitch deeper into games. That's probably a tool 158 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 4: he seeds to get there. 159 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 8: You've had two games to observe the ABS Automated Ball 160 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 8: Strike System. 161 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 5: Any takeaway in two days? 162 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know if this is like the football 163 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 4: in me, I feel like teams need to be taking 164 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 4: this like I feel like teams need an analytics guy 165 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 4: in the booth almost helping with challenges in baseball the 166 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 4: way you see in football. You know, it's Sam Francis 167 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 4: with the Bengals. 168 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 9: Now. 169 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 4: The difference is the batter has to decide on their own. 170 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 4: But for example, I thought the Red lost the game 171 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,560 Speaker 4: on Saturday, not that it mattered at all the results, 172 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 4: but the game turned because of ABS strategy because the 173 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 4: Red lost their final challenge, they then couldn't use one 174 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 4: later and the Mariners had a successful challenge that completely 175 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 4: turned the in and so the further I dive into 176 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,440 Speaker 4: this rabbit hole, the more I see ways to improve 177 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 4: your for lack of a better static win probability added 178 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 4: by one percent three percent based on challenging in the 179 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:04,680 Speaker 4: right situations. Like if it's a ton of green on 180 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 4: the mount and it's a one to one count, and 181 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 4: it could make it a two strike count, I like 182 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 4: hunter Green with two strikes. Yes, you know, maybe that's 183 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:13,960 Speaker 4: less important for a groundball picture like rock Burke, like 184 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 4: starre hitters who were great with two strikes, stir hitters 185 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 4: who can't hit with two strikes. Like I see all 186 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 4: of these scenarios where if you have a sign that 187 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 4: can hey, keep in mind, maybe just challenge on this plan. 188 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,959 Speaker 4: You know, you get that set in advance that could 189 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 4: set teams up for if the scenario arrives is make 190 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 4: sure you're using it to the most advantageous points. 191 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 8: All right, you've been all over goodyear.

Was not going to go 497 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,399 Speaker 18: to the World Championships, which is a tournament at the 498 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:29,439 Speaker 18: end of the NHL season for teams, you know that 499 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,159 Speaker 18: don't make the playoffs and that get beat out in 500 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:35,199 Speaker 18: the first round. Players go to represent their country, and 501 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 18: he wasn't going to go because he was going to 502 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 18: get married. He did get married, but his wedding was 503 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 18: on his mind. But then he saw that Crosby McKinnon 504 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 18: were going for Canada, and he went and they won 505 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 18: the World champions for the championship for the first time 506 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:51,120 Speaker 18: in over ninety years. So yeah, he's a special player 507 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:53,959 Speaker 18: among special players, and on these big stages you can 508 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:55,200 Speaker 18: see where he's getting noticed. 509 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 8: Jody, the tribute paid to Johnny and Matthew Goudreau and 510 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 8: the family was pretty powerful. And I can't be the 511 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 8: only one that had tears in my eyes when when 512 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 8: they brought Johnny's kids onto the ice with the team photo. 513 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:08,880 Speaker 8: That I mean, the hair standing up on my arms 514 00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 8: right now.

You know, 518 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 18: it's that would have been a tough thing to do, 519 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 18: I would imagine, but once they got there and saw 520 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 18: that level of appreciation and we're part of the team, 521 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:30,440 Speaker 18: America's team, and then that that family, the good Roll family, 522 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:32,920 Speaker 18: you could tell, Yeah, that was a big part of 523 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 18: the purpose of the team and how they came together. 524 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 18: So yeah, I'm with you. 525 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 7: I'm with you, Lance.

So to see his dad, he 533 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,359 Speaker 18: crying in the stands with you know, his mom, it 534 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 18: was It's just it really was a special moment for 535 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,360 Speaker 18: us all to see.

Blue Jackets back 539 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,440 Speaker 8: at it at Boston on Thursday, home on Saturday to 540 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 8: the Islanders. They brought in Rick Bonas takes over on 541 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:19,919 Speaker 8: the bench. They've won ten of their last eleven. Jody, 542 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:21,640 Speaker 8: what has Rick brought to all this? 543 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:26,120 Speaker 7: It's amazing, right, he's. 544 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:31,400 Speaker 18: You know, this team was kind of they were underachieving all. 545 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:35,360 Speaker 7: Year in a lot of different areas, and you know, 546 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:38,439 Speaker 7: it was it was a change. 547 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,119 Speaker 18: There was a bold move made by Don Woddell the 548 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:44,400 Speaker 18: GM here and he brought in a guy and Rick 549 00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 18: Bonus who's There's no one that's been behind an NHL 550 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 18: bench more than Rick Bonas in the world. He's been 551 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,399 Speaker 18: doing it since the early eighties as a player coach. 552 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 18: He understands the league and he has. 553 00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 7: Nothing to prove and nothing to lose. 554 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:02,399 Speaker 18: He's just here generally or genuinely in appreciation to be 555 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 18: behind the bench. 556 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 7: And he's got a stern message but a. 557 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:09,919 Speaker 18: Positive way about him that he's very he's in it 558 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:11,920 Speaker 18: with the players. You know, I'm at ice level here 559 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:14,880 Speaker 18: in Columbus for the Blue Jackets. I broadcast from ice level, 560 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 18: so I'm right there next to him at the bench, 561 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 18: and his first game is the fuck wasn't on the 562 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,679 Speaker 18: ice for four seconds and he was behind his players 563 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:26,920 Speaker 18: pointing things out, you know. And the group that came 564 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,120 Speaker 18: off the ice after the first shift, after the first 565 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:32,359 Speaker 18: thirty five seconds, he was patting them on the back 566 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:36,920 Speaker 18: and you know, directing them with that encouragement. So it's 567 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 18: a you know, it might be a news school in 568 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:43,920 Speaker 18: an old school mix, but the person of Rick Bonus 569 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 18: and how he wants this team and wants every individual 570 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 18: to succeed and enjoys. 571 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:49,560 Speaker 7: His challenge has been great. 572 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 18: And you know, it's been a perfect season for him. 573 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 18: He comes in, he coaches a dozen games, he gets 574 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 18: a two week break kind of step back, and then 575 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 18: he comes back in for this final push, and you know, 576 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 18: he's got a lot of special things happening. 577 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 7: And I can't even imagine what. 578 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:06,560 Speaker 18: It's going to be like in that locker room when 579 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:08,880 Speaker 18: this team welcomes back, Zach Wrensky with. 580 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 7: The gold medal. 581 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 18: You know, like there, you just think of all these players, 582 00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 18: they're gonna have heroes welcomes and the Zach plays on 583 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 18: on Thursday night where you know Swayman was one of 584 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 18: the goalies for Team USA. 585 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 7: McAvoy was a key piece. 586 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 18: In Boston if he gets if he does play it 587 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 18: because you know they're tracking to go to the White 588 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 18: House tomorrow for the State of the Union address and 589 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:37,280 Speaker 18: then the storms in Boston, we'll see if you get 590 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 18: at some point, here's gonna get rest. He's just landed 591 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,880 Speaker 18: in Miami a few hours ago, but you know, and 592 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:44,160 Speaker 18: then he comes back to Nationwide Arena as the hero, 593 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 18: Like there's this is a special, special amount of excitement 594 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 18: that comes along with that. So that's another ingredient to 595 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 18: this this team that Rick Bonus has brought. You know 596 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 18: that positivity and that's construction, but also there's some elements 597 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 18: here that he's really helping rise to their best. 598 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,800 Speaker 8: Jody, they've gone from tide for last when he took 599 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 8: over to now chasing a playoff spot. The trade deadline 600 00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:10,480 Speaker 8: has marched the sixth Can can they be a playoff team? 601 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 18: Yes, they can. And last year they just missed it 602 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:17,520 Speaker 18: and you know, two points. And they looked at a 603 00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:20,280 Speaker 18: stretch of their season where they went it was six 604 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:23,960 Speaker 18: games where they just they lost it coming out of 605 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 18: the break last year for the Four Nations break, and 606 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 18: so you know, teams learned from that, and that's important 607 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 18: to keeping groups together. You know, you have to fail 608 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:38,040 Speaker 18: sometimes together to look ahead and realize when you look 609 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 18: back and say, that was actually good for us. And 610 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 18: if you look at the Tampa Bay Lightning the year 611 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,680 Speaker 18: the Blue Jackets swept them, the best team in the league, 612 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 18: they hit a record for things they did in the 613 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 18: National Hockey legue in the regular season, the Blue Jackets 614 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 18: went in and swept them, and then they came back 615 00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 18: the next two seasons and won two Stanley Cups. And 616 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:57,280 Speaker 18: so I think that that's an important ingredient to the 617 00:30:57,280 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 18: team is saying we're not doing that again this year. 618 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 18: So I think this is a playoff team. It's going 619 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 18: to be the hardest segment of their season. You know, 620 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:07,720 Speaker 18: if I'm not a hockey play and the demand and 621 00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 18: the schedule that's ahead of them. But I think the 622 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 18: antennas up and they're going to give it and make 623 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 18: sure they push to get in. 624 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 8: Jody last question, great catching up with it. It seems I'd 625 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 8: have to look it up and confirm. It seems like 626 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 8: they're always scoring first. Now during this run, how big 627 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 8: is it to play with the lead. 628 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 18: Well, it changes the whole dynamic because you know, when 629 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 18: you do get in those ruts where that does. 630 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 7: Happen, you sometimes say here we go again. 631 00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 18: And you know, teams that have the lead, they don't 632 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:39,600 Speaker 18: have to chase games, they don't have to chase take chances. Now, 633 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:43,920 Speaker 18: there's good teams that wait and understand and know that 634 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 18: they're going to get a power play or just wait 635 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 18: the other team will break. 636 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 7: We know they're better, we're better than them. 637 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 18: But when you're a team that's in that, you know 638 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 18: that middle third, it can be a knock on you. You 639 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,240 Speaker 18: prepare for the game, you get out there, you're down, 640 00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:59,240 Speaker 18: but you've already given up one goal. It just kind 641 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 18: of buries, it just put you behind. So you start 642 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 18: chasing the game a little bit and taking more risks, 643 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:04,880 Speaker 18: and that's when you give more up. 644 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 7: Whereas when you have the lead, you. 645 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,040 Speaker 18: Can just sit back and play your game and know 646 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 18: that you know you've got that and you don't have 647 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 18: to press things. So it's an important piece. It'll be 648 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 18: even more important here down the stretch. 649 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 5: It is so great catching up with you. 650 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:20,800 Speaker 8: I knew after yesterday and with the season about their 651 00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 8: zoom you you were the first person I thought of 652 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 8: and I said, I wonder about the available and I'm 653 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 8: so happy you made time tonight.

Here is Richard Patino after the game on 776 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:21,360 Speaker 8: what took place and the week that was for Xavier basketball. 777 00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:24,080 Speaker 5: ALF was very, very poor. We weren't ready to go. 778 00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:27,719 Speaker 3: We were down twenty one, so certainly I've got to 779 00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:30,000 Speaker 3: do a better job of getting them ready. So it 780 00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:31,759 Speaker 3: felt a little different than the Villanova game. 781 00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:32,239 Speaker 5: We were ready to go. 782 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:35,680 Speaker 3: We jumped Villanova early where we spot them at twenty 783 00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:39,480 Speaker 3: one point lead, certainly showed great heart to come back, 784 00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:42,000 Speaker 3: cut it to two, had several chances to tie it, 785 00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:46,080 Speaker 3: didn't do it. Our defense was really really poor in 786 00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:49,840 Speaker 3: the first half, and that that led to bad offense 787 00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:51,759 Speaker 3: because we're going to gets a set offense. We weren't 788 00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:53,880 Speaker 3: playing with the pace that we normally do, especially at 789 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,960 Speaker 3: the Cintas Center. But give them credit. I mean, a 790 00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:01,200 Speaker 3: Jii's terrific. Bisshack's really really good. I mean, you know, 791 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:03,600 Speaker 3: Trey Orri's really good. If they were healthy, They're a 792 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 3: tournament team, you know. I mean, coach Mont has obviously 793 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 3: gotten some bad luck there. But you know, just tail 794 00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 3: of two halfs for sure.

Now, 999 00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:55,839 Speaker 8: I guess they used it in the spring last year, 1000 00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:57,960 Speaker 8: but it wasn't going to be used in the regular season. 1001 00:50:58,080 --> 00:50:59,959 Speaker 8: Now it's really going to be used in the regular season. 1002 00:51:00,440 --> 00:51:02,919 Speaker 8: So now there's much more focus and emphasis and trying 1003 00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:04,800 Speaker 8: to figure out what it all means. I want you 1004 00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:08,719 Speaker 8: to listen to the first instance of the Automated ball 1005 00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:12,320 Speaker 8: Strike System coming into play on Saturday with Sal Stewart 1006 00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:14,840 Speaker 8: on the plate. At the plate, listen to what happens 1007 00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:17,440 Speaker 8: and how quickly there is a resolution. 1008 00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:20,319 Speaker 25: Here it is Stuart takes a high strike. He thought 1009 00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:23,480 Speaker 25: that was too high, and all right, we have our 1010 00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:26,040 Speaker 25: first challenge. Stuart says, no, no, take a look at it. 1011 00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:28,520 Speaker 25: So now we have the challenge system in effect. They 1012 00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:31,239 Speaker 25: show it on the board and it was in fact 1013 00:51:31,280 --> 00:51:34,719 Speaker 25: ball four outside. There you go, easy as at onto 1014 00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:38,360 Speaker 25: the next pitch. Now there. Yesterday was a different story. 1015 00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:41,840 Speaker 25: I don't even want to look up how many challenges 1016 00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:45,360 Speaker 25: there were Let's just say, and I understand it because 1017 00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:48,279 Speaker 25: you have to try it to get to feel it out. 1018 00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:50,040 Speaker 25: So there's gonna be I think there's gonna be a 1019 00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:52,440 Speaker 25: lot more testing this early in spring training. 1020 00:51:52,600 --> 00:51:53,240 Speaker 5: Like anything. 1021 00:51:53,560 --> 00:51:55,920 Speaker 8: Let's challenge that, let's work on the mechanics of it. 1022 00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:58,800 Speaker 8: I'm talking the players and the coaches and the managers 1023 00:51:58,840 --> 00:52:02,480 Speaker 8: figuring out how's this all gonna work, and just kind 1024 00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:03,359 Speaker 8: of feeling it off. 1025 00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:04,399 Speaker 5: So you're gonna get more. 1026 00:52:04,440 --> 00:52:06,360 Speaker 8: And there was like eight or nine of them, I 1027 00:52:06,400 --> 00:52:11,000 Speaker 8: think yesterday it got kind of ridiculous, including Josh Naylor. 1028 00:52:11,200 --> 00:52:14,279 Speaker 8: In one at bat, the Reds challenged a pitch to him, 1029 00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:17,239 Speaker 8: and then he challenged a pitch that was to him. 1030 00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:20,720 Speaker 25: Here's how it sounded now. Josh Naylor, what a boost 1031 00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:23,400 Speaker 25: he was for the Mariners last year. And that's a 1032 00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:26,600 Speaker 25: check swinging on a pitch that was called a ball initially, 1033 00:52:26,800 --> 00:52:29,920 Speaker 25: and the Reds are wanting to challenge it. Trevino instantly, 1034 00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:31,800 Speaker 25: and that was right in there for a strike. So 1035 00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:34,160 Speaker 25: it's a one, I mean not even close. That was 1036 00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:39,360 Speaker 25: well in there, nearly right down the middle. That a 1037 00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:42,880 Speaker 25: strike on the inside corner to Josh Naylor, and Naylor 1038 00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:45,440 Speaker 25: wants to challenge that was a change up that got 1039 00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:48,120 Speaker 25: plenty of plate on the inside corner, and that will 1040 00:52:48,160 --> 00:52:50,480 Speaker 25: be a strike. So we're waiting for it to reveal 1041 00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:52,880 Speaker 25: on the board plenty enough to be a strike. The 1042 00:52:52,960 --> 00:52:55,440 Speaker 25: Mariners lose that challenge and it's one and two on Naylor. 1043 00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:59,440 Speaker 25: Back to back pitch is challenged. There you go, get 1044 00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:03,000 Speaker 25: used to it abs here seemingly to stay. 1045 00:53:03,040 --> 00:53:06,080 Speaker 8: I want to do a little Matt McClain conversation our 1046 00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:08,680 Speaker 8: next segment, But let me piggyback off the Will Benson 1047 00:53:08,719 --> 00:53:13,719 Speaker 8: home run with this, and I would find it impossible, 1048 00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:16,880 Speaker 8: hard to believe that anybody would not root for Will Benson. 1049 00:53:19,040 --> 00:53:21,520 Speaker 8: And yet he hit two twenty six last year. There's 1050 00:53:21,560 --> 00:53:25,439 Speaker 8: no way around it. But his story of twenty twenty 1051 00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:29,359 Speaker 8: five was hitting the ball hard and hitting it right 1052 00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:34,080 Speaker 8: at someone. And I know, like bad luck and a 1053 00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:38,279 Speaker 8: cup of coffee get you triple a at bats. I know, 1054 00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:42,719 Speaker 8: ultimately it's a results driven business. I get that, But 1055 00:53:42,800 --> 00:53:44,799 Speaker 8: there's only so much you can control as a hitter. 1056 00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:48,239 Speaker 8: That's why hitters talk about sticking with the process. You 1057 00:53:48,320 --> 00:53:50,759 Speaker 8: can only control what you can control. Hit the ball hard. 1058 00:53:51,320 --> 00:53:55,720 Speaker 8: The rest you can't control, and Will Benson's a perfect 1059 00:53:55,760 --> 00:53:59,239 Speaker 8: example of that, and a guy who hit into tough 1060 00:53:59,320 --> 00:54:02,160 Speaker 8: luck last year. Among Red's hitters who went to the 1061 00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:04,600 Speaker 8: play at least one hundred times last year, Will Benson 1062 00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:07,640 Speaker 8: led this team in how hard the ball was hit, 1063 00:54:08,360 --> 00:54:10,920 Speaker 8: how often it was hit hard. I mean, you name it, 1064 00:54:11,239 --> 00:54:17,520 Speaker 8: every metric for barreling the ball, stinging the ball. He 1065 00:54:17,719 --> 00:54:20,800 Speaker 8: led this team, and yet he had a two to 1066 00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:23,720 Speaker 8: twenty six batting average to show for it. Even improved 1067 00:54:23,760 --> 00:54:26,080 Speaker 8: his strikeout rate. You know, in twenty twenty four he 1068 00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:29,160 Speaker 8: struck out almost forty percent of the time. Last year 1069 00:54:29,320 --> 00:54:31,400 Speaker 8: he improved it to twenty six and a half percent. 1070 00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:35,440 Speaker 8: Still needs to be better. According to stat cast, his 1071 00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:40,920 Speaker 8: expected batting average was two seventy five. That incorporates everything 1072 00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:46,040 Speaker 8: into the mix. That incorporates all aspects of hitting the ball, 1073 00:54:46,280 --> 00:54:49,560 Speaker 8: the exit velocity, the launch angle, the rest of the 1074 00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:52,640 Speaker 8: stuff he can't control. He should have based on the 1075 00:54:52,719 --> 00:54:54,600 Speaker 8: expectation of how he hit the ball, he should have 1076 00:54:54,680 --> 00:54:55,480 Speaker 8: hit two seventy five. 1077 00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:57,759 Speaker 5: Last year. He hit two twenty six. 1078 00:54:59,040 --> 00:55:02,399 Speaker 8: Cherlie Goldsmith had point out in Charlie's Truckboard last week 1079 00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:05,680 Speaker 8: that he hit thirteen line drives last year that would 1080 00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:08,600 Speaker 8: have qualified his home runs at Great American Ballpark, but 1081 00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:11,399 Speaker 8: they were either robbed or caught on the warning track 1082 00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:12,200 Speaker 8: and were outs. 1083 00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:14,920 Speaker 5: Last year, that's the kind of season it was for 1084 00:55:15,040 --> 00:55:15,680 Speaker 5: Will Benson. 1085 00:55:16,239 --> 00:55:18,239 Speaker 8: There's a lot of stuff about Will that doesn't add 1086 00:55:18,280 --> 00:55:21,040 Speaker 8: up or qualifies as intangibles. When he was in the lineup, 1087 00:55:21,080 --> 00:55:23,200 Speaker 8: the Reds were seven games above five hundred. 1088 00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:23,640 Speaker 5: Last year. 1089 00:55:23,719 --> 00:55:26,360 Speaker 8: They went thirty four and twenty seven when Will Benson 1090 00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:27,080 Speaker 8: was in the lineup. 1091 00:55:27,520 --> 00:55:28,160 Speaker 5: So let's see. 1092 00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:32,000 Speaker 8: That means they were three games under five hundred without 1093 00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:35,120 Speaker 8: him being in the lineup. And in September he hit 1094 00:55:35,160 --> 00:55:38,799 Speaker 8: about two seventy three home runs, drove in nine, had 1095 00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:41,960 Speaker 8: a good September, and now he's battling for a bench spot. 1096 00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:44,319 Speaker 5: Jose Travino gets one of them. 1097 00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:47,560 Speaker 8: There's three other bench spots, and that's the battle royale 1098 00:55:47,640 --> 00:55:51,439 Speaker 8: between Benson and JJ Blede and Dane Myers and Blake 1099 00:55:51,560 --> 00:55:55,520 Speaker 8: Dunn and Nathaniel Lowe and Michael Tolio and Cees and 1100 00:55:55,640 --> 00:55:58,480 Speaker 8: Rheese Hines and Tyler Callahan. And right now, if you 1101 00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:00,279 Speaker 8: were asking me to put money on it, I would 1102 00:56:00,280 --> 00:56:03,640 Speaker 8: say that those three spots would be Will Benson, Dane Myers, 1103 00:56:03,719 --> 00:56:06,440 Speaker 8: and I don't I just have a feeling that Nathaniel 1104 00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:08,040 Speaker 8: Low is gonna wind up on this roster, so it. 1105 00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:11,759 Speaker 5: Would be those three. Uh I get. I root for 1106 00:56:11,840 --> 00:56:13,400 Speaker 5: Will Benson. I was very happy to see him hit 1107 00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:14,280 Speaker 5: a home run yesterday. 1108 00:56:16,520 --> 00:56:18,880 Speaker 8: He's a left handed bat, he's got some pop, he 1109 00:56:18,960 --> 00:56:21,239 Speaker 8: can play all three outfield positions, and he can run 1110 00:56:21,239 --> 00:56:21,560 Speaker 8: a little. 1111 00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:26,920 Speaker 5: That could help this team. But he's got to make 1112 00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:30,560 Speaker 5: the team and then he's got a hit, because. 1113 00:56:30,360 --> 00:56:32,440 Speaker 8: All the bad luck in the world ultimately adds up 1114 00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:37,200 Speaker 8: to outs, unfortunately. And I talked about it, talked with 1115 00:56:37,320 --> 00:56:40,280 Speaker 8: him about it at Reds Fest. You know, drove him crazy, 1116 00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:43,520 Speaker 8: could drive anyone crazy. And he leaned on his teammates 1117 00:56:43,520 --> 00:56:46,279 Speaker 8: who just repeated that mantra, stick with the process. There's 1118 00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:48,719 Speaker 8: only so much you can do. You're hitting it right 1119 00:56:48,920 --> 00:56:52,760 Speaker 8: at people, you know. And I had a debate earlier 1120 00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:57,000 Speaker 8: today about citing his exit velocity. Why are you who 1121 00:56:57,120 --> 00:56:59,680 Speaker 8: cares how hard he hits it? Well, there's a reason 1122 00:56:59,719 --> 00:57:03,960 Speaker 8: why exit velocity means something in baseball. There's a direct correlation. 1123 00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:05,600 Speaker 8: The harder you hit the ball, the better you have 1124 00:57:05,680 --> 00:57:07,000 Speaker 8: a chance of being successful. 1125 00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:10,239 Speaker 5: I'll give you an example last year on balls in 1126 00:57:10,600 --> 00:57:13,560 Speaker 5: the entire baseball season on balls that were hit off 1127 00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:16,880 Speaker 5: the bat at one hundred miles an hour, at exactly 1128 00:57:16,960 --> 00:57:19,840 Speaker 5: one hundred miles an hour off the bat, that produced 1129 00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:23,240 Speaker 5: a four to ten batting average. All the balls that 1130 00:57:23,320 --> 00:57:25,920 Speaker 5: were hit ninety miles an hour off the bat produced 1131 00:57:25,920 --> 00:57:28,920 Speaker 5: a two to oh seven batting average. So if you're 1132 00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:31,960 Speaker 5: one who believes it doesn't matter what exit velocity is, 1133 00:57:32,320 --> 00:57:36,280 Speaker 5: I can only give you the numbers it matters. Sure 1134 00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:37,240 Speaker 5: there are exceptions. 1135 00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:39,640 Speaker 8: There will be bleeders and duck snorts and bloops that 1136 00:57:39,760 --> 00:57:42,520 Speaker 8: find grass, and there will be rockets that find gloves. 1137 00:57:42,760 --> 00:57:44,080 Speaker 5: But it's all about the process. 1138 00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:47,760 Speaker 8: Last year, for every ball that was hit off the 1139 00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:50,960 Speaker 8: bat at one hundred and five miles an hour, it 1140 00:57:51,120 --> 00:57:55,960 Speaker 8: produced a batting average of almost six hundred, and the 1141 00:57:56,080 --> 00:57:59,240 Speaker 8: balls that came off the bat in eighty five produced 1142 00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:02,320 Speaker 8: a batting average of two oh one. So don't tell 1143 00:58:02,400 --> 00:58:06,200 Speaker 8: me that exit velocity and hitting the ball hard doesn't matter. 1144 00:58:07,320 --> 00:58:10,600 Speaker 8: And that's what Will Benson has to cling to to 1145 00:58:10,720 --> 00:58:17,120 Speaker 8: some extent. Man, I stung the ball last year. Hopefully 1146 00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:18,640 Speaker 8: the luck turns this year. 1147 00:58:18,960 --> 00:58:19,480 Speaker 5: Still ahead. 1148 00:58:19,520 --> 00:58:22,320 Speaker 8: Speaking of luck turning, Matt McClain two hit day, I 1149 00:58:22,320 --> 00:58:23,720 Speaker 8: don't want to make too much out of it, but 1150 00:58:23,760 --> 00:58:26,240 Speaker 8: I'm gonna make something out of it.

You're getting too excited. 1166 00:59:07,760 --> 00:59:09,720 Speaker 8: It was just one game, and I will admit up 1167 00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:11,800 Speaker 8: front yesterday was just a spring game. 1168 00:59:12,160 --> 00:59:17,160 Speaker 5: One game. But man, Sunday was a positive for Matt McClain. 1169 00:59:17,240 --> 00:59:17,720 Speaker 7: It had to be. 1170 00:59:18,200 --> 00:59:20,680 Speaker 8: I mean, when you have the twenty twenty five season 1171 00:59:20,720 --> 00:59:23,960 Speaker 8: that Matt McClain had, you will take a positive in 1172 00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:26,280 Speaker 8: any way shape or form you can get it. 1173 00:59:26,480 --> 00:59:28,040 Speaker 5: Yesterday was a positive. 1174 00:59:28,120 --> 00:59:31,040 Speaker 8: He opened Cactus League play, didn't play Saturday with two hits, 1175 00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:34,320 Speaker 8: a double, scored a run, drove into, drove the ball 1176 00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:39,040 Speaker 8: the other way. It's a start, hopefully on the way back. 1177 00:59:40,760 --> 00:59:42,680 Speaker 8: And we've talked about this in the in the offseason. 1178 00:59:42,720 --> 00:59:45,400 Speaker 8: He I mean, it seems like ages ago. He was 1179 00:59:45,480 --> 00:59:47,680 Speaker 8: called up in May of twenty twenty three and he 1180 00:59:47,800 --> 00:59:51,880 Speaker 8: hit two ninety with sixteen homers in only eighty nine games. 1181 00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:54,560 Speaker 8: He finished fifth in Rookie of the Year voting, and 1182 00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:57,040 Speaker 8: he looked like it felt like he was the second 1183 00:59:57,080 --> 01:00:00,360 Speaker 8: baseman of the future, and that does feel age ago. 1184 01:00:01,760 --> 01:00:04,000 Speaker 8: And then he got hurt in twenty twenty four spring training, 1185 01:00:04,320 --> 01:00:07,760 Speaker 8: wiped out the entire season after a shoulder surgery, and 1186 01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:12,360 Speaker 8: then last season a disaster hit two twenty and the 1187 01:00:12,520 --> 01:00:18,120 Speaker 8: Reds gave him. Tito gave him all the rope anyone 1188 01:00:18,160 --> 01:00:20,720 Speaker 8: could have asked for. He played one hundred and forty 1189 01:00:20,760 --> 01:00:24,840 Speaker 8: seven games, five hundred and seventy seven trips to the plate. 1190 01:00:25,520 --> 01:00:29,040 Speaker 8: His roster status never felt like it was in jeopardy. 1191 01:00:30,320 --> 01:00:32,720 Speaker 8: Terry admitted when the heck when he joined me on 1192 01:00:32,800 --> 01:00:35,320 Speaker 8: the stage at Redsfest and he was, in his words, 1193 01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:38,560 Speaker 8: stubborn in sticking with Matt because he believed in him 1194 01:00:38,600 --> 01:00:41,760 Speaker 8: so much, and Terry tried everything. 1195 01:00:41,880 --> 01:00:42,360 Speaker 7: Last year. 1196 01:00:42,640 --> 01:00:46,200 Speaker 8: He tried him in the two spot. I think Matt 1197 01:00:46,400 --> 01:00:49,240 Speaker 8: made sixty six starts in the second spot. 1198 01:00:49,320 --> 01:00:49,680 Speaker 5: They order. 1199 01:00:50,200 --> 01:00:53,120 Speaker 8: He tried him in the ninth spot, fifty one spots 1200 01:00:53,440 --> 01:00:57,000 Speaker 8: batting ninth. But really, other than June, when I think 1201 01:00:57,040 --> 01:01:01,520 Speaker 8: he hit almost two ninety, he didn't hit other than 1202 01:01:01,680 --> 01:01:04,040 Speaker 8: in other than the first week of the season when 1203 01:01:04,080 --> 01:01:05,720 Speaker 8: he homered in the second game of the year, the 1204 01:01:05,760 --> 01:01:07,000 Speaker 8: third game of the year, in the fourth game of 1205 01:01:07,040 --> 01:01:10,840 Speaker 8: the year, and then things just went so sideways, you know. 1206 01:01:11,000 --> 01:01:14,640 Speaker 8: For April he hit one fifty nine. For May hit 1207 01:01:14,720 --> 01:01:17,720 Speaker 8: one ninety four. In September he hit two oh five, 1208 01:01:18,040 --> 01:01:20,480 Speaker 8: and I kept thinking it would eventually kick in. And 1209 01:01:20,520 --> 01:01:22,680 Speaker 8: then then I reached a point where even said, man, 1210 01:01:23,360 --> 01:01:25,480 Speaker 8: I don't I don't look at it as like a 1211 01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:27,680 Speaker 8: mercied emotion if you were to send him down. But 1212 01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:30,560 Speaker 8: I would look at as just get him to triple 1213 01:01:30,640 --> 01:01:32,880 Speaker 8: A and let him find some success and remember what 1214 01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:35,440 Speaker 8: was like to have fun again, because in the reality, 1215 01:01:35,480 --> 01:01:37,960 Speaker 8: he hadn't had fun and really had sustained success since 1216 01:01:38,000 --> 01:01:41,360 Speaker 8: his rookie season in twenty twenty three, and they never 1217 01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:45,960 Speaker 8: sent him down. Now, I mean he did contribute last year. 1218 01:01:45,960 --> 01:01:48,200 Speaker 8: He hit fifteen home runs at tied for third on 1219 01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:51,600 Speaker 8: the team. He drove in fifty he swiped eighteen bases, 1220 01:01:51,960 --> 01:01:54,240 Speaker 8: scored seventy seven runs, that was third on the team, 1221 01:01:55,080 --> 01:02:03,240 Speaker 8: and he provided solid defense. But the race need more now, 1222 01:02:04,360 --> 01:02:07,720 Speaker 8: I mean a full year for removed from the shoulder surgery. 1223 01:02:09,360 --> 01:02:12,439 Speaker 8: How much more can he give them? I mean there's 1224 01:02:12,480 --> 01:02:16,360 Speaker 8: the injury aspect, and then there's the unquantifiable is that 1225 01:02:16,440 --> 01:02:19,360 Speaker 8: a word? The You know, this would in essence be 1226 01:02:21,760 --> 01:02:24,560 Speaker 8: still part of the process of pitchers adjusting to him 1227 01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:26,400 Speaker 8: in him having to adjust back. 1228 01:02:27,880 --> 01:02:29,600 Speaker 5: So there's that now. 1229 01:02:30,040 --> 01:02:32,920 Speaker 8: All the while, the Reds have basically pushed their chips 1230 01:02:32,920 --> 01:02:35,400 Speaker 8: into the middle on Matt. Gavin Lux was traded and 1231 01:02:35,560 --> 01:02:39,800 Speaker 8: Santiago Espinal is gone. I think it's fair to wonder, 1232 01:02:39,920 --> 01:02:43,000 Speaker 8: in a default scenario, if things go sideways, how long 1233 01:02:43,080 --> 01:02:47,520 Speaker 8: is the leash if Matt McClain struggles this season, what's 1234 01:02:47,560 --> 01:02:47,959 Speaker 8: the plan? 1235 01:02:48,120 --> 01:02:49,640 Speaker 5: B We've heard the talk. 1236 01:02:49,840 --> 01:02:52,040 Speaker 8: South Stewart has played second base in the miners and 1237 01:02:52,080 --> 01:02:53,600 Speaker 8: he's getting work there this spring. 1238 01:02:54,720 --> 01:02:56,840 Speaker 5: I don't know. I know he's lost twenty six pounds. 1239 01:02:56,840 --> 01:02:59,560 Speaker 8: I'm gonna have to see how much more mobile nimble 1240 01:02:59,640 --> 01:03:05,160 Speaker 8: he But if Matt McClain wouldn't pan out, is South 1241 01:03:05,200 --> 01:03:07,880 Speaker 8: Stewart somebody who can hold down second base every day? 1242 01:03:07,880 --> 01:03:10,280 Speaker 8: Spencer Steer has handled the position of the miners, but 1243 01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:13,040 Speaker 8: that was two years ago. Hasn't played in the majors 1244 01:03:13,080 --> 01:03:17,800 Speaker 8: the last two But the bottom line is this a 1245 01:03:18,040 --> 01:03:26,240 Speaker 8: productive Matt McClain makes everything fit for this team offensively 1246 01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:32,520 Speaker 8: and defensively. It solves so many things. He slots into 1247 01:03:32,560 --> 01:03:38,000 Speaker 8: the second spot on the order, he's on a team 1248 01:03:38,040 --> 01:03:42,040 Speaker 8: that leans into its defense. Is a plus fielder, and 1249 01:03:42,160 --> 01:03:46,080 Speaker 8: he's a plus base runner, and he does the little 1250 01:03:46,120 --> 01:03:48,480 Speaker 8: things well. I loved what he told me at Redsfest 1251 01:03:48,520 --> 01:03:51,640 Speaker 8: when he said, even during the struggles, he wanted to 1252 01:03:51,720 --> 01:03:55,800 Speaker 8: make sure he was helping this team any way he could, 1253 01:03:55,960 --> 01:04:00,360 Speaker 8: and if that meant hitting behind a runner, that's what 1254 01:04:00,480 --> 01:04:04,080 Speaker 8: he would do. It wasn't the rush and the impatience 1255 01:04:04,120 --> 01:04:06,320 Speaker 8: to try to just hit home runs because I'm slumping, 1256 01:04:06,360 --> 01:04:08,920 Speaker 8: I gotta do something. It was the realization I can 1257 01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:12,480 Speaker 8: still help this team even if I'm batting to twenty 1258 01:04:13,840 --> 01:04:18,160 Speaker 8: so plus defender, plus base runner understands the little things, 1259 01:04:19,480 --> 01:04:22,080 Speaker 8: but he's got to hit to make the offense click. 1260 01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:25,880 Speaker 8: And I've said this before and I'll say it again. 1261 01:04:28,080 --> 01:04:29,680 Speaker 8: The question of will he I don't know. 1262 01:04:29,840 --> 01:04:30,560 Speaker 5: I hope he does. 1263 01:04:31,600 --> 01:04:33,640 Speaker 8: But the answer to that question is going to go 1264 01:04:33,760 --> 01:04:36,720 Speaker 8: a long way and determining how far the Reds are 1265 01:04:36,760 --> 01:04:39,440 Speaker 8: going to go in twenty twenty six. I truly believe 1266 01:04:39,520 --> 01:04:42,360 Speaker 8: that I'm not saying all of it hinges on Matt 1267 01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:45,760 Speaker 8: McClain's shoulders, but there's a decent chunk of the twenty 1268 01:04:45,800 --> 01:04:49,320 Speaker 8: twenty six season the fate of which rest with Matt McClain. 1269 01:04:49,600 --> 01:04:49,880 Speaker 23: Are you? 1270 01:04:51,040 --> 01:04:55,200 Speaker 5: Are you going to be much better than last year? 1271 01:04:55,360 --> 01:04:58,960 Speaker 8: Maybe he's not a two ninety hitter, but he's got 1272 01:04:59,120 --> 01:05:04,040 Speaker 8: to be an impact player offensively for this team. Matt 1273 01:05:04,120 --> 01:05:06,840 Speaker 8: had two hits yesterday. La had two doubles, one off 1274 01:05:06,840 --> 01:05:09,920 Speaker 8: the bat at one hundred and twelve.

Here is a two 1330 01:07:50,160 --> 01:07:51,920 Speaker 8: hit day for the Red second baseman. 1331 01:07:52,360 --> 01:07:54,480 Speaker 25: The one one pitch McLean does go the other way, 1332 01:07:54,560 --> 01:07:56,920 Speaker 25: lifts a fly ball twisting toward the corner, and that 1333 01:07:57,080 --> 01:07:59,920 Speaker 25: will land fair in the right field corner and bounce 1334 01:08:00,160 --> 01:08:03,760 Speaker 25: in there and eventually bounce out of play for a 1335 01:08:03,880 --> 01:08:06,920 Speaker 25: ground rule double. And the reds now leaded five to 1336 01:08:07,040 --> 01:08:09,720 Speaker 25: one on the two run double into the right field 1337 01:08:09,800 --> 01:08:14,680 Speaker 25: corner by Matt McClain. Batter's Matt McClain two at bats 1338 01:08:14,720 --> 01:08:17,240 Speaker 25: and a couple of balls the other way, and another 1339 01:08:17,360 --> 01:08:20,040 Speaker 25: one he slices through the right side of the infield 1340 01:08:20,479 --> 01:08:23,240 Speaker 25: on his way to third is Reese Hines throw over. 1341 01:08:23,160 --> 01:08:24,000 Speaker 5: To third is cut. 1342 01:08:24,400 --> 01:08:26,680 Speaker 20: It's a single off the bat of Matt McClain, and 1343 01:08:26,760 --> 01:08:27,760 Speaker 20: again first. 1344 01:08:27,560 --> 01:08:28,920 Speaker 5: And third for the Reds. 1345 01:08:29,080 --> 01:08:31,760 Speaker 25: I'd be really curious to talk to Matt tomorrow and 1346 01:08:31,880 --> 01:08:34,639 Speaker 25: figure out if that was his game plan coming in today, 1347 01:08:34,720 --> 01:08:36,880 Speaker 25: to try to make a conscious effort and maybe it'll 1348 01:08:36,880 --> 01:08:39,000 Speaker 25: be that way throughout the spring. To go the other way. 1349 01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:41,400 Speaker 5: Well, it looks like the old McClain to me, at 1350 01:08:41,479 --> 01:08:44,800 Speaker 5: least in these three at bats. Oh how big would 1351 01:08:44,800 --> 01:08:46,360 Speaker 5: that be? How big it would be? 1352 01:08:46,520 --> 01:08:46,920 Speaker 2: Huge? 1353 01:08:48,080 --> 01:08:51,400 Speaker 8: Out to the phones, five, one, three, seven, four, nine, seven, one, 1354 01:08:51,439 --> 01:08:54,479 Speaker 8: eight hundred, the big one in Southern Indiana. Hey, Nate, 1355 01:08:54,600 --> 01:08:55,679 Speaker 8: welcome to Sports Talk. 1356 01:08:57,520 --> 01:08:58,639 Speaker 10: Why that's what is up? 1357 01:08:59,040 --> 01:08:59,600 Speaker 5: You tell me? 1358 01:09:00,120 --> 01:09:00,439 Speaker 26: I have? 1359 01:09:01,360 --> 01:09:05,720 Speaker 10: Well, I've got a thought, and that's I think some 1360 01:09:05,920 --> 01:09:07,920 Speaker 10: of the anxiety is pointed a little bit in the 1361 01:09:07,960 --> 01:09:12,200 Speaker 10: wrong direction. And it's my feeling and general belief that 1362 01:09:13,200 --> 01:09:16,320 Speaker 10: you can have a championship team that has one person 1363 01:09:16,439 --> 01:09:19,200 Speaker 10: in the lineup who maybe is a two hundred hitter 1364 01:09:19,880 --> 01:09:23,320 Speaker 10: but is all world defensively, but you can't have two. 1365 01:09:24,560 --> 01:09:28,040 Speaker 10: And we had two last year, well three or four, 1366 01:09:28,240 --> 01:09:31,880 Speaker 10: but we're looking at two this year, and I feel 1367 01:09:31,960 --> 01:09:35,679 Speaker 10: like we should have a longer leash with Matt McClain 1368 01:09:35,960 --> 01:09:39,400 Speaker 10: than we do keep Brian Hayes. We've got two or 1369 01:09:39,479 --> 01:09:41,960 Speaker 10: three people that can play third base and do it 1370 01:09:42,000 --> 01:09:45,160 Speaker 10: at a high level. Maybe not his level, obviously, but 1371 01:09:46,479 --> 01:09:48,720 Speaker 10: when you're talking about Matt McClain, you're talking about a 1372 01:09:48,760 --> 01:09:52,639 Speaker 10: guy that can play middle, infield, second, play about anywhere 1373 01:09:52,680 --> 01:09:54,240 Speaker 10: on the field if you need him. And I just 1374 01:09:54,520 --> 01:09:56,560 Speaker 10: feel like he's bringing more to the team as a 1375 01:09:57,840 --> 01:10:02,960 Speaker 10: glove go glove level defensive player, but he can play 1376 01:10:03,040 --> 01:10:07,439 Speaker 10: multiple positions. And and you know, I'm hoping Brian Hayes hits. 1377 01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:09,040 Speaker 10: I mean, it would be great if they both do. 1378 01:10:10,320 --> 01:10:12,759 Speaker 10: But I think you have more value and Matt McClain, 1379 01:10:12,920 --> 01:10:15,519 Speaker 10: and maybe you have some trade value in key Brian if. 1380 01:10:16,960 --> 01:10:20,000 Speaker 8: Well, But but but do they I mean, realistically, Nate 1381 01:10:20,160 --> 01:10:23,120 Speaker 8: if if you don't, If you have questions about uh 1382 01:10:23,400 --> 01:10:26,280 Speaker 8: K Brian Hayes, the rest of baseball already understands those. 1383 01:10:26,640 --> 01:10:28,160 Speaker 8: I mean, is there much of a market for a 1384 01:10:28,200 --> 01:10:30,439 Speaker 8: guy who's got four more years left on his deal 1385 01:10:31,360 --> 01:10:32,559 Speaker 8: in in K Brian. 1386 01:10:32,360 --> 01:10:36,920 Speaker 10: Hayes, Well, there's a lot of I think I think 1387 01:10:36,960 --> 01:10:38,759 Speaker 10: there's a lot of teams that would take the gamble 1388 01:10:38,800 --> 01:10:39,599 Speaker 10: at the price point. 1389 01:10:40,960 --> 01:10:43,200 Speaker 8: Well, then most of then, I mean, is it that 1390 01:10:43,360 --> 01:10:46,599 Speaker 8: big a deal then for the Reds to I'm trying 1391 01:10:46,640 --> 01:10:50,120 Speaker 8: to figure out, like I mean, he's if they're leaning 1392 01:10:50,160 --> 01:10:52,800 Speaker 8: into defense and he's the best defensive third baseman in 1393 01:10:52,840 --> 01:10:57,240 Speaker 8: the game, then we know what he is. And you're 1394 01:10:57,280 --> 01:10:59,080 Speaker 8: looking for the gravy of this. Could he give him 1395 01:10:59,120 --> 01:11:01,439 Speaker 8: a little bit more off offense that he has the 1396 01:11:01,520 --> 01:11:04,519 Speaker 8: last two years? That becomes really the equation right now? 1397 01:11:05,880 --> 01:11:08,000 Speaker 10: Well, I believe the equation and who gets better? 1398 01:11:08,760 --> 01:11:10,640 Speaker 8: Well, but but you're making it one of the I'm 1399 01:11:10,800 --> 01:11:13,040 Speaker 8: I'm not sure why you're making it one one stays 1400 01:11:13,120 --> 01:11:14,720 Speaker 8: or one goes, or it's only one of the two. 1401 01:11:16,240 --> 01:11:20,080 Speaker 10: Well, because history would tell you over the last year 1402 01:11:20,160 --> 01:11:23,519 Speaker 10: that that we'll be happy it's neither one of them hit. 1403 01:11:23,640 --> 01:11:25,879 Speaker 10: We could get by with one of them in the lineup, 1404 01:11:25,960 --> 01:11:27,720 Speaker 10: but we can't get by with two of them in 1405 01:11:27,800 --> 01:11:30,479 Speaker 10: the lineup that aren't hitting. And I believe we're set 1406 01:11:30,560 --> 01:11:33,439 Speaker 10: up better to be able to handle Matt McClain playing 1407 01:11:33,479 --> 01:11:36,439 Speaker 10: every day hitting two hundred than we are Key Briant 1408 01:11:36,439 --> 01:11:38,280 Speaker 10: Hayes playing every day hitting two hundred. 1409 01:11:39,000 --> 01:11:41,439 Speaker 8: Uh yeah, yeah, I mean you would you would have 1410 01:11:41,560 --> 01:11:44,960 Speaker 8: options absolutely. You also have a contract tied to Hayes 1411 01:11:45,000 --> 01:11:47,479 Speaker 8: that you don't have tied to to Matt. But I 1412 01:11:47,560 --> 01:11:50,559 Speaker 8: mean this will be the proverbial, it'll it'll play out 1413 01:11:50,560 --> 01:11:54,240 Speaker 8: as the season goes. You're starting from an awfully negative 1414 01:11:54,280 --> 01:11:57,360 Speaker 8: standpoint of this conversation on them not hitting. 1415 01:11:58,439 --> 01:12:01,879 Speaker 10: Well, I'm not. And if you knew how much excitement 1416 01:12:01,920 --> 01:12:03,679 Speaker 10: I've got going on in my life right now, you'd 1417 01:12:03,720 --> 01:12:04,720 Speaker 10: be surprised. 1418 01:12:05,800 --> 01:12:06,960 Speaker 5: Conversation to this point. 1419 01:12:08,160 --> 01:12:12,040 Speaker 10: Well, it's I just I hear so many conversations over 1420 01:12:12,080 --> 01:12:15,040 Speaker 10: the past few weeks based around what will Matt McClean 1421 01:12:15,120 --> 01:12:18,360 Speaker 10: do to earn his spot? And I just feel like 1422 01:12:18,600 --> 01:12:21,720 Speaker 10: he's in a better place right now to have earned 1423 01:12:21,760 --> 01:12:24,800 Speaker 10: a spot. Then maybe we would lean into Keep Brian 1424 01:12:24,840 --> 01:12:27,840 Speaker 10: Hayes and and I believe, I believe Matt McLean will 1425 01:12:27,880 --> 01:12:31,560 Speaker 10: be just fine. I think eventually talent will prevail, and 1426 01:12:31,680 --> 01:12:33,599 Speaker 10: he has all the skills and we know what he's 1427 01:12:33,680 --> 01:12:36,880 Speaker 10: capable of and hopefully just the winner off to get 1428 01:12:36,920 --> 01:12:39,439 Speaker 10: totally healthy and all those things. I feel good about him. 1429 01:12:39,800 --> 01:12:43,240 Speaker 10: And if you don't love watching Keep Brian play defense, 1430 01:12:43,360 --> 01:12:47,599 Speaker 10: then then there's something wrong with you. But he doesn't 1431 01:12:47,640 --> 01:12:50,599 Speaker 10: bring any explosiveness to the plate, doesn't bring it run 1432 01:12:50,640 --> 01:12:53,880 Speaker 10: in the basis anything other than fielding and throwing the ball. 1433 01:12:56,640 --> 01:12:59,920 Speaker 10: I believe Matt McClean is is Defensively, he's in the 1434 01:13:00,080 --> 01:13:03,000 Speaker 10: same category he's I mean, he's top five or six 1435 01:13:03,120 --> 01:13:06,840 Speaker 10: defensive second basements in the game. So so we need 1436 01:13:06,920 --> 01:13:08,920 Speaker 10: to give him that same defensive credit. And I just 1437 01:13:09,280 --> 01:13:11,320 Speaker 10: what I hate is just so much pressure of being 1438 01:13:11,360 --> 01:13:14,639 Speaker 10: put on the kid already just going into spring training 1439 01:13:14,760 --> 01:13:19,160 Speaker 10: over how his last year went. And and that's that's 1440 01:13:19,240 --> 01:13:22,800 Speaker 10: tough for him because you know, we need him to 1441 01:13:22,880 --> 01:13:25,479 Speaker 10: have feel like he's got a fair opportunity. And I know, 1442 01:13:25,720 --> 01:13:28,920 Speaker 10: thank god he's not listening to Naydan Lance on a 1443 01:13:29,120 --> 01:13:34,600 Speaker 10: Monday night. But you know, as we talk through this, 1444 01:13:34,800 --> 01:13:36,720 Speaker 10: because this is what I got in my life right now. 1445 01:13:37,000 --> 01:13:40,439 Speaker 8: So the good hearing from you. Call again, we'll continue 1446 01:13:40,479 --> 01:13:41,040 Speaker 8: the conversation. 1447 01:13:41,080 --> 01:13:43,840 Speaker 7: All right, yeah, all right here, thank you. 1448 01:13:44,000 --> 01:13:44,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, I hey. 1449 01:13:44,800 --> 01:13:48,080 Speaker 8: I will admit from the start this it was a 1450 01:13:48,200 --> 01:13:51,080 Speaker 8: curious trade to acquire key Brian Hayes. I mean, I 1451 01:13:51,160 --> 01:13:54,479 Speaker 8: think everybody understands the value of defense. I don't think 1452 01:13:54,640 --> 01:14:00,599 Speaker 8: many understood bringing on somebody who has four more years 1453 01:14:00,760 --> 01:14:05,240 Speaker 8: after this year on his contract that that seemed like 1454 01:14:05,360 --> 01:14:08,479 Speaker 8: the the the wrench and all this of well wait, wait, 1455 01:14:08,680 --> 01:14:11,400 Speaker 8: wait a minute, explain this to me, because I get defense, 1456 01:14:11,840 --> 01:14:14,120 Speaker 8: and I get he's the best third baseman defensively in 1457 01:14:14,160 --> 01:14:17,360 Speaker 8: the game. But man, you're really committing to four more 1458 01:14:17,479 --> 01:14:21,360 Speaker 8: years beyond this season for key Brian Hayes that I 1459 01:14:22,120 --> 01:14:24,840 Speaker 8: give you that, Anderson we go, Hey Bryce, Welcome to 1460 01:14:24,920 --> 01:14:25,559 Speaker 8: Sports Talk. 1461 01:14:27,160 --> 01:14:27,719 Speaker 4: Hey Lance. 1462 01:14:27,840 --> 01:14:30,000 Speaker 27: I mean, I like to dive into the pitching battle 1463 01:14:30,400 --> 01:14:33,720 Speaker 27: between Chase Warrens and Red Louder because we've both We've 1464 01:14:33,920 --> 01:14:36,679 Speaker 27: got to see him both pitch on Saturday, and they 1465 01:14:36,800 --> 01:14:40,560 Speaker 27: just work their pitches very, very different differently, and it 1466 01:14:40,680 --> 01:14:42,439 Speaker 27: was it was just very fun to watch. 1467 01:14:42,840 --> 01:14:46,120 Speaker 8: Yeah, they are Man, you talk about aces in your pocket. 1468 01:14:46,200 --> 01:14:48,120 Speaker 8: There's a lot of teams who would love right now 1469 01:14:48,560 --> 01:14:51,639 Speaker 8: to have them in their rotation. And we're we're ultimately 1470 01:14:51,720 --> 01:14:53,320 Speaker 8: going to debate and they're going to have to decide 1471 01:14:53,520 --> 01:14:55,439 Speaker 8: which one of them is the fifth starter and which 1472 01:14:55,479 --> 01:14:56,920 Speaker 8: one of them probably goes to triple A. 1473 01:14:57,160 --> 01:14:59,240 Speaker 5: That's a good problem to have. That's a ton of 1474 01:14:59,320 --> 01:15:00,559 Speaker 5: talent in those two arms. 1475 01:15:02,160 --> 01:15:04,360 Speaker 27: Yeah, you can mix them in and out again. The 1476 01:15:04,439 --> 01:15:07,600 Speaker 27: go about pitching very differently. I mean, Chase Burns, I 1477 01:15:07,680 --> 01:15:10,200 Speaker 27: mean pretty much a three pitch pitcher uses his four 1478 01:15:10,240 --> 01:15:12,400 Speaker 27: scene fifty eight percent of the time and then works 1479 01:15:12,439 --> 01:15:14,960 Speaker 27: in that flatterer. He relies on pitch tunneling a lot. 1480 01:15:16,160 --> 01:15:18,759 Speaker 8: Yeah, he you know, it's funny you mentioned that because 1481 01:15:18,800 --> 01:15:21,720 Speaker 8: I think I see Chase and he has more of 1482 01:15:21,840 --> 01:15:25,160 Speaker 8: a violent release and Red is more I don't want 1483 01:15:25,200 --> 01:15:27,519 Speaker 8: to say the cerebral guy, but he kind of like 1484 01:15:28,400 --> 01:15:30,280 Speaker 8: he's got a way of working through it it bat 1485 01:15:30,400 --> 01:15:33,920 Speaker 8: and just getting guys out without one hundred mile an 1486 01:15:33,920 --> 01:15:34,800 Speaker 8: hour fastballs. 1487 01:15:36,400 --> 01:15:38,800 Speaker 27: Yeah, and part of that is that he really uses 1488 01:15:38,920 --> 01:15:41,479 Speaker 27: the entire plate, drops the corners, and he uses his 1489 01:15:41,560 --> 01:15:44,360 Speaker 27: pitches very wisely. He uses a slider and his words seaver. 1490 01:15:45,040 --> 01:15:47,400 Speaker 27: In twenty twenty four he used it spoke twenty seven 1491 01:15:47,439 --> 01:15:49,519 Speaker 27: percent of the time of his pitches. He's a sinker 1492 01:15:49,640 --> 01:15:51,840 Speaker 27: twenty six percent and has changed ninety so he's a 1493 01:15:51,920 --> 01:15:52,920 Speaker 27: very diverse pitcher. 1494 01:15:53,600 --> 01:15:56,040 Speaker 8: I like that he keeps guys guessing. The ability to 1495 01:15:56,120 --> 01:15:58,719 Speaker 8: do that keeps you off balance, and hitting is about balance, 1496 01:15:58,760 --> 01:16:01,720 Speaker 8: and that's why Red Louder dazzled like he did his 1497 01:16:01,840 --> 01:16:04,720 Speaker 8: first time here. And I know last season was rough 1498 01:16:04,760 --> 01:16:07,040 Speaker 8: and he only threw nine innings, but I can't wait 1499 01:16:07,120 --> 01:16:09,599 Speaker 8: to see the continued development of both those guys. 1500 01:16:10,920 --> 01:16:14,000 Speaker 27: Absolutely, and honestly, I could see Chase Burns having a 1501 01:16:14,320 --> 01:16:16,880 Speaker 27: bullpen spot. Maybe not a closer spot, but he's definitely 1502 01:16:16,920 --> 01:16:19,760 Speaker 27: got all the say stereotypes if you will, for that 1503 01:16:19,920 --> 01:16:23,600 Speaker 27: throwing hard about three four pitches. So it'll just be 1504 01:16:23,720 --> 01:16:26,400 Speaker 27: fun to watch this and emerge ass spring train goes on. 1505 01:16:26,520 --> 01:16:28,599 Speaker 8: But just nice talk with you, lest Hey, good talking 1506 01:16:28,640 --> 01:16:31,439 Speaker 8: with you, Bryce, Thank you. And I like Bryce because 1507 01:16:31,439 --> 01:16:33,920 Speaker 8: he does his homework. Dropping some stats on me. I 1508 01:16:34,160 --> 01:16:37,040 Speaker 8: like stat Hey, I'm the stat dropper, but Bryce was 1509 01:16:37,120 --> 01:16:39,599 Speaker 8: dropping stats on me. I'll take it, by the way, 1510 01:16:39,680 --> 01:16:41,479 Speaker 8: blast from the past. I got an email last week, 1511 01:16:41,520 --> 01:16:43,479 Speaker 8: and you know me, I love when I get story ideas, 1512 01:16:43,560 --> 01:16:45,960 Speaker 8: guest ideas and just little notes and tidbits. And I 1513 01:16:46,000 --> 01:16:49,400 Speaker 8: got one last week from a listener A Scott and 1514 01:16:51,200 --> 01:16:57,080 Speaker 8: his uncle is former Reds pitcher. Remember this name, Dave Tomlin, 1515 01:16:58,800 --> 01:17:01,120 Speaker 8: Dave tom and I did not know this. I knew 1516 01:17:01,120 --> 01:17:03,839 Speaker 8: if Dave Tomlin, I have his baseball cards. Dave Tomlin 1517 01:17:03,960 --> 01:17:06,920 Speaker 8: was born in Maysville, Kentucky, in nineteen forty nine, and 1518 01:17:07,040 --> 01:17:09,679 Speaker 8: he grew up in Adams County and attended West Union 1519 01:17:09,760 --> 01:17:13,320 Speaker 8: High School in West Union Ohio. Dave Tomlin got drafted 1520 01:17:13,360 --> 01:17:16,160 Speaker 8: by the Reds in sixty seven, made his major league 1521 01:17:16,160 --> 01:17:19,320 Speaker 8: debut in seventy two, and then after the seventy three season, 1522 01:17:19,400 --> 01:17:22,040 Speaker 8: he was traded with Bobby Tolan to the Padres for 1523 01:17:22,160 --> 01:17:27,200 Speaker 8: Clay Kirby, and in January of seventy eight, Dave Tomlin 1524 01:17:27,360 --> 01:17:29,559 Speaker 8: was traded to the Rangers for gay Lord Perry. I'd 1525 01:17:29,640 --> 01:17:30,720 Speaker 8: like to be able to say you were traded for 1526 01:17:30,760 --> 01:17:33,040 Speaker 8: a Hall of Fame pitcher. And then two months later 1527 01:17:33,120 --> 01:17:35,639 Speaker 8: the Reds purchased him from the Rangers and brought him back. 1528 01:17:36,439 --> 01:17:39,400 Speaker 8: And in nineteen seventy eight, Dave Tomlin went nine to 1529 01:17:39,520 --> 01:17:42,960 Speaker 8: one with four saves for the Reds, and the next year, 1530 01:17:43,040 --> 01:17:45,519 Speaker 8: in seventy nine, he pitched in fifty three games out 1531 01:17:45,520 --> 01:17:47,640 Speaker 8: of the bullpen with an AAR of just over two 1532 01:17:47,720 --> 01:17:51,519 Speaker 8: and a half. Pitched thirteen major league seasons, went twenty 1533 01:17:51,600 --> 01:17:55,000 Speaker 8: five and twelve, made four hundred and nine appearances. Not 1534 01:17:55,080 --> 01:17:58,559 Speaker 8: bad for somebody who was a twenty ninth round draft pick. 1535 01:17:58,960 --> 01:18:01,479 Speaker 8: Pitched in the postseason the Reds in ninety three, pitch 1536 01:18:01,560 --> 01:18:04,840 Speaker 8: for the postseason for the Reds I'm sorry sorry seventy three, 1537 01:18:05,040 --> 01:18:09,280 Speaker 8: and again in seventy nine, coached in the Braves system 1538 01:18:09,320 --> 01:18:12,719 Speaker 8: for a while after retired, coached in the Red Sox system. 1539 01:18:13,040 --> 01:18:15,840 Speaker 8: After he retired. In these days, Scott told me that 1540 01:18:16,360 --> 01:18:20,200 Speaker 8: Dave Tomlin, now seventy six is a farmer in Adams County. 1541 01:18:20,479 --> 01:18:23,920 Speaker 5: I had no idea. I love information like that. 1542 01:18:24,240 --> 01:18:24,519 Speaker 7: Thank you. 1543 01:18:24,840 --> 01:18:28,519 Speaker 8: All right, let's sad down the stretch.

Think it 1561 01:19:36,120 --> 01:19:40,040 Speaker 8: meant something to Nick.

There 1571 01:20:23,000 --> 01:20:25,519 Speaker 8: is sad, well sad. He didn't want you to be sad. 1572 01:20:25,600 --> 01:20:28,200 Speaker 8: There's there's news about Big Willie. 1573 01:20:29,560 --> 01:20:30,000 Speaker 5: Bengals. 1574 01:20:30,200 --> 01:20:33,759 Speaker 8: Former Bengals offensive armand Willie Anderson took to social media 1575 01:20:34,000 --> 01:20:38,800 Speaker 8: on Friday night and revealed that he is scheduled to 1576 01:20:38,840 --> 01:20:43,680 Speaker 8: have a kidney transplant March the third in Atlanta and 1577 01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:45,960 Speaker 8: he said in this video, which you can watch through 1578 01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:49,680 Speaker 8: his social media channels. I never wanted everyone calling me 1579 01:20:50,040 --> 01:20:53,120 Speaker 8: feeling sorry for me. I just want to give happy news, 1580 01:20:53,720 --> 01:20:56,120 Speaker 8: and he said, I hope this helps the next athlete 1581 01:20:56,200 --> 01:20:59,160 Speaker 8: by talking about this. He's fifty years old. He was 1582 01:20:59,200 --> 01:21:02,479 Speaker 8: diagnosed with high pressure in his late thirties kidney disease 1583 01:21:02,520 --> 01:21:04,560 Speaker 8: about ten years ago. Said he thought he had it 1584 01:21:04,680 --> 01:21:08,000 Speaker 8: under control. Last couple of years, his numbers got significantly worse. 1585 01:21:08,520 --> 01:21:11,919 Speaker 8: I wanted to avoid dialysis at all costs and pursued 1586 01:21:12,240 --> 01:21:15,439 Speaker 8: transplant options at Duke University and Emory University, and then 1587 01:21:15,520 --> 01:21:18,880 Speaker 8: last summer he was placed on the transplant list. Family 1588 01:21:18,960 --> 01:21:23,760 Speaker 8: and friends attempted to become a donor. It's his girlfriend 1589 01:21:24,160 --> 01:21:26,800 Speaker 8: that turned out to be the match, and he said 1590 01:21:26,840 --> 01:21:29,559 Speaker 8: in his video, it's crazy. Never in a million years 1591 01:21:29,600 --> 01:21:31,519 Speaker 8: did I think that one I'd be in a position 1592 01:21:31,600 --> 01:21:33,320 Speaker 8: eating a kidney and going through a transplant. 1593 01:21:33,400 --> 01:21:33,559 Speaker 5: Two. 1594 01:21:33,880 --> 01:21:35,720 Speaker 8: I never thought someone this close to me in this 1595 01:21:35,920 --> 01:21:38,160 Speaker 8: aspect would be the one I would get a kidney from. 1596 01:21:39,640 --> 01:21:42,280 Speaker 8: He also said that he believes kidney disease is part 1597 01:21:42,320 --> 01:21:46,439 Speaker 8: of a broader issue among former NFL linemen and pointed 1598 01:21:46,680 --> 01:21:50,760 Speaker 8: towards the caution surrounding pain killers and tore it all 1599 01:21:50,960 --> 01:21:55,479 Speaker 8: and all of that associated with pain killers. If you 1600 01:21:55,560 --> 01:21:57,479 Speaker 8: have a chance, check it out on social media and 1601 01:21:57,560 --> 01:22:00,559 Speaker 8: certainly keep willing your thoughts and prayers for is kidney 1602 01:22:00,760 --> 01:22:06,320 Speaker 8: transplant coming up on March the third. All right, my 1603 01:22:06,880 --> 01:22:11,439 Speaker 8: my story of the weekend. Kelly was out of town 1604 01:22:12,760 --> 01:22:16,920 Speaker 8: and I decided I would take advantage How do I 1605 01:22:17,000 --> 01:22:20,160 Speaker 8: want to say this? I decided I would take advantage 1606 01:22:20,200 --> 01:22:23,600 Speaker 8: of the opportunity because we have a we have a 1607 01:22:23,680 --> 01:22:27,280 Speaker 8: back and forth about things that we keep longer than 1608 01:22:27,320 --> 01:22:30,479 Speaker 8: we should. Things in the refrigerator, things in the pantry, 1609 01:22:30,600 --> 01:22:33,160 Speaker 8: things in the junk drawer. Who doesn't have a junk 1610 01:22:33,200 --> 01:22:35,960 Speaker 8: drawer in their kitchen? So I thought, okay, she's gone. 1611 01:22:37,080 --> 01:22:38,960 Speaker 8: I'm just gonna go ahead. I'm going to clean out 1612 01:22:39,000 --> 01:22:42,160 Speaker 8: the refrigerator. I'm going to clean out the pantry, and 1613 01:22:42,240 --> 01:22:45,760 Speaker 8: I'm going to clean out the junk drawer. So I 1614 01:22:45,920 --> 01:22:48,880 Speaker 8: went to it, and I not just cleaned out, I 1615 01:22:49,000 --> 01:22:53,920 Speaker 8: mean cleaned the refrigerator. Because nothing says Saturday afternoon like 1616 01:22:53,960 --> 01:22:58,559 Speaker 8: cleaning out your refrigerator. And so I moved everything out 1617 01:22:58,920 --> 01:23:02,559 Speaker 8: onto the counter the eye, I took all the shelves 1618 01:23:02,600 --> 01:23:05,760 Speaker 8: out cleaned all the shelves, took like the drawers, the 1619 01:23:05,920 --> 01:23:09,040 Speaker 8: vegetable drawers or the fruit drawers, and all the took everything. 1620 01:23:08,720 --> 01:23:13,160 Speaker 5: Out, cleaned them all, I mean sparkling. And then I 1621 01:23:13,240 --> 01:23:15,760 Speaker 5: started to put it. My first problem. I realized the 1622 01:23:15,840 --> 01:23:16,800 Speaker 5: first thing I did wrong. 1623 01:23:17,240 --> 01:23:19,720 Speaker 8: I didn't take a picture of it, because then I 1624 01:23:19,800 --> 01:23:22,760 Speaker 8: looked and I had all the little compartments out and 1625 01:23:22,840 --> 01:23:25,600 Speaker 8: the shelves out the side. It's two two doors that 1626 01:23:25,720 --> 01:23:27,640 Speaker 8: open up, and then there's a freezer down below with 1627 01:23:28,200 --> 01:23:30,000 Speaker 8: the door that opened up. And I said, wait a minute, 1628 01:23:30,000 --> 01:23:34,040 Speaker 8: I don't remember how this goes back together. And so 1629 01:23:34,360 --> 01:23:36,120 Speaker 8: then I sat there and I said, okay, this, if 1630 01:23:36,160 --> 01:23:39,160 Speaker 8: this shelf goes here, then this one's got to go here. 1631 01:23:39,600 --> 01:23:42,760 Speaker 8: And there's four slots on the door, so I need 1632 01:23:42,920 --> 01:23:45,120 Speaker 8: four shelves here, and then I need three over on 1633 01:23:45,200 --> 01:23:48,920 Speaker 8: this side. And that really significantly slowed down the process 1634 01:23:49,000 --> 01:23:51,320 Speaker 8: because I thought I was moving at a pretty good pace. 1635 01:23:51,560 --> 01:23:53,680 Speaker 8: Then I realized I had no idea how to put 1636 01:23:53,720 --> 01:23:58,439 Speaker 8: the refrigerator back together. I finally figured it out. I 1637 01:23:58,479 --> 01:24:00,280 Speaker 8: got rid of a number of things. I was checking 1638 01:24:00,360 --> 01:24:04,439 Speaker 8: expiration dates, I was googling things, how long should this 1639 01:24:04,600 --> 01:24:07,360 Speaker 8: be kept? Once opened. Does it have to remain in 1640 01:24:07,400 --> 01:24:09,400 Speaker 8: the refrigerator? Some things that were unopen? Can I put 1641 01:24:09,439 --> 01:24:11,560 Speaker 8: this on the lazy Susan in the kitchen and I was, 1642 01:24:11,640 --> 01:24:13,439 Speaker 8: you know, boom, boom boom, and it looked great. And 1643 01:24:13,439 --> 01:24:15,680 Speaker 8: then I went to the pantry. I took everything out 1644 01:24:15,720 --> 01:24:18,439 Speaker 8: of the pantry and redid the pantry and it looks great. 1645 01:24:18,479 --> 01:24:20,760 Speaker 8: And then I went to the junk drawer. And the 1646 01:24:20,880 --> 01:24:22,840 Speaker 8: drunk drawer to the left of the sink is the 1647 01:24:22,920 --> 01:24:25,200 Speaker 8: thing that everything winds up. And it just it drives 1648 01:24:25,240 --> 01:24:28,600 Speaker 8: me crazy because it doesn't open because it is overstuffed 1649 01:24:28,640 --> 01:24:31,800 Speaker 8: with things, like everything winds up in this specific drawer. 1650 01:24:32,000 --> 01:24:34,960 Speaker 8: So I yanked it open and I took everything out 1651 01:24:35,240 --> 01:24:39,680 Speaker 8: and I just started throwing things away. And then I 1652 01:24:39,760 --> 01:24:44,160 Speaker 8: started sending videos to Kelly and the kids. And I 1653 01:24:44,240 --> 01:24:51,200 Speaker 8: think Kelly's response was, what have you done? And I said, 1654 01:24:51,280 --> 01:24:53,760 Speaker 8: but doesn't it look good? She said, it looks good. 1655 01:24:53,840 --> 01:24:57,080 Speaker 8: She said, what did you throw away? I said, well, 1656 01:24:57,120 --> 01:24:59,960 Speaker 8: that's that's a story for another day. Said there were 1657 01:25:00,160 --> 01:25:02,519 Speaker 8: things that were never going to eat. There's things in 1658 01:25:02,560 --> 01:25:03,960 Speaker 8: the back of the pantry that have been there. And 1659 01:25:04,000 --> 01:25:08,280 Speaker 8: all this stems from I go back over the summer, 1660 01:25:09,240 --> 01:25:10,800 Speaker 8: and I was gonna fix dinner. One night, I went 1661 01:25:10,840 --> 01:25:13,400 Speaker 8: out to the freezer in the garage and I got 1662 01:25:13,439 --> 01:25:16,280 Speaker 8: out a bag of telapia and I thought, all right, 1663 01:25:16,400 --> 01:25:19,280 Speaker 8: finally we're gonna fix this telapia tonight. And I brought 1664 01:25:19,320 --> 01:25:21,400 Speaker 8: it into the kitchen and I took a look at 1665 01:25:21,439 --> 01:25:23,760 Speaker 8: the bag for like instructions and all that, and I 1666 01:25:23,840 --> 01:25:26,680 Speaker 8: looked and the expiration date was on it, and it 1667 01:25:26,800 --> 01:25:31,200 Speaker 8: said twenty eighteen. And I said, okay, hold on, now 1668 01:25:33,360 --> 01:25:40,960 Speaker 8: we have something that expired in twenty eighteen. I'm sensing 1669 01:25:41,000 --> 01:25:43,479 Speaker 8: a problem with our freezer and we lose track of things. 1670 01:25:44,200 --> 01:25:49,240 Speaker 8: So Casey and Peyton for Christmas, because I started typing, 1671 01:25:49,320 --> 01:25:51,800 Speaker 8: I should admit this. I started typing up a list 1672 01:25:52,000 --> 01:25:54,200 Speaker 8: of everything that was in the freezer, and I taped 1673 01:25:54,200 --> 01:25:55,920 Speaker 8: it on the freezer and on the side of the 1674 01:25:55,960 --> 01:25:58,360 Speaker 8: refrigerator in the kitchen, so we knew what's out there. 1675 01:25:59,200 --> 01:26:02,360 Speaker 8: Casey and Peyton for Christmas bought me a They bought 1676 01:26:02,400 --> 01:26:05,680 Speaker 8: me a dry raceboard, and it now hangs in the 1677 01:26:05,760 --> 01:26:09,560 Speaker 8: garage and everything is written on the dry raceboard and 1678 01:26:09,680 --> 01:26:11,439 Speaker 8: now once it is taken out of the freezer, it 1679 01:26:11,600 --> 01:26:16,560 Speaker 8: is crossed off. We're developing quite a system here. But 1680 01:26:16,800 --> 01:26:20,679 Speaker 8: my Saturday was spent taking care of the refrigerator, the pantry, 1681 01:26:21,200 --> 01:26:23,439 Speaker 8: and the drunk drawer. And there was a part of 1682 01:26:23,479 --> 01:26:27,600 Speaker 8: me that really enjoyed the project all three. There was 1683 01:26:27,640 --> 01:26:29,439 Speaker 8: a part of me that got done and said that 1684 01:26:29,560 --> 01:26:32,800 Speaker 8: took way way long than I thought. 1685 01:26:33,880 --> 01:26:34,559 Speaker 5: I need a beer. 1686 01:26:34,800 --> 01:26:36,080 Speaker 8: And I said, well, I know where the beer is 1687 01:26:36,120 --> 01:26:37,920 Speaker 8: because I just stacked it up on the top shelf 1688 01:26:38,000 --> 01:26:40,320 Speaker 8: in the corner. And when Kelly got home last night, 1689 01:26:40,320 --> 01:26:43,760 Speaker 8: I said, I want you to look. I like vegetables here, 1690 01:26:44,439 --> 01:26:48,479 Speaker 8: eggs and bread here. Meats are over here, Your condiments 1691 01:26:48,520 --> 01:26:50,880 Speaker 8: are over here. And she shut the refrigerator. She just 1692 01:26:50,960 --> 01:26:54,280 Speaker 8: walked off, thoroughly disgusted about everything. That was the story 1693 01:26:54,320 --> 01:26:56,800 Speaker 8: of my weekend. How is yours? When we come back, 1694 01:26:56,920 --> 01:26:59,719 Speaker 8: let's talk about getting up yesterday morning to watch hockey. 1695 01:27:00,160 --> 01:27:06,439 Speaker 8: How incredibly cool was that.

We don't talk a great 1707 01:27:58,439 --> 01:28:02,400 Speaker 8: deal of hockey, but I think yesterday was so much 1708 01:28:02,479 --> 01:28:06,200 Speaker 8: more than hockey, and that's why I would invite you 1709 01:28:06,360 --> 01:28:08,760 Speaker 8: in at five, one, three, seven, four, nine, seven, one, 1710 01:28:08,840 --> 01:28:11,000 Speaker 8: eight hundred, the big One. And I know, just in 1711 01:28:11,120 --> 01:28:14,960 Speaker 8: something simple. Yesterday, at at like eight thirty yesterday morning, 1712 01:28:15,200 --> 01:28:19,360 Speaker 8: I ask on Twitter in a poll question if you 1713 01:28:19,439 --> 01:28:25,120 Speaker 8: were watching, And of the people who voted, Granted, if 1714 01:28:25,200 --> 01:28:28,000 Speaker 8: you're following me, you're probably have a built in interest 1715 01:28:28,080 --> 01:28:31,559 Speaker 8: in sports, but ninety five percent of the people voting 1716 01:28:31,680 --> 01:28:34,880 Speaker 8: in the poll said they were watching. I got up 1717 01:28:34,960 --> 01:28:38,720 Speaker 8: specifically to watch it yesterday at eight. Technically I was 1718 01:28:38,800 --> 01:28:45,120 Speaker 8: up anyway, but man, if you ever doubted it, sports 1719 01:28:45,320 --> 01:28:51,280 Speaker 8: can just be absolutely freaking awesome.

Jack Hughes scores the golden goal, the winner, 1727 01:29:15,640 --> 01:29:18,680 Speaker 8: less than two minutes into overtime, three on three, and 1728 01:29:19,400 --> 01:29:23,640 Speaker 8: I was watching it alone and I was so I 1729 01:29:23,880 --> 01:29:25,559 Speaker 8: so wanted to be like. 1730 01:29:28,080 --> 01:29:28,719 Speaker 5: In a crowd. 1731 01:29:29,840 --> 01:29:32,280 Speaker 8: I mean, I'm texting Kelly was in Chicago, and I said, 1732 01:29:32,280 --> 01:29:35,759 Speaker 8: you're watching right, And I'm texting Peyton and she was watching. 1733 01:29:35,800 --> 01:29:38,400 Speaker 8: And I knew when my daughter texted chaotic because it 1734 01:29:38,479 --> 01:29:40,040 Speaker 8: was after a big sequence in front of the net. 1735 01:29:40,080 --> 01:29:42,400 Speaker 8: I said, wow, she really is watching in case he 1736 01:29:42,560 --> 01:29:44,960 Speaker 8: wasn't responding, and I'm thinking, well, he's still asleep. 1737 01:29:45,160 --> 01:29:47,560 Speaker 5: And I kept texting him, wake up, wake up and 1738 01:29:47,720 --> 01:29:48,080 Speaker 5: watch this. 1739 01:29:48,360 --> 01:29:50,240 Speaker 8: And I'm thinking, during the intermission, do I have time 1740 01:29:50,280 --> 01:29:52,519 Speaker 8: to run to his house and Taylor Millan wake him up? 1741 01:29:53,400 --> 01:29:55,719 Speaker 8: But it was that type of game, in that type 1742 01:29:55,760 --> 01:29:59,439 Speaker 8: of moment, you wanted to share it with other people. 1743 01:30:00,240 --> 01:30:04,040 Speaker 8: And that's why I'm curious if you happen to watch 1744 01:30:04,240 --> 01:30:07,839 Speaker 8: and if you have a reaction an emotion to yesterday. 1745 01:30:08,360 --> 01:30:10,360 Speaker 8: I mean, to me, there are just so many I mean, 1746 01:30:10,520 --> 01:30:17,000 Speaker 8: Jack Hughes is just USA hockey.

And 1751 01:30:31,640 --> 01:30:34,840 Speaker 8: there are just so many things I will remember about yesterday, 1752 01:30:34,960 --> 01:30:39,519 Speaker 8: the one of the beautiful parts of hockey, and the 1753 01:30:39,680 --> 01:30:42,360 Speaker 8: playoffs when they end, and the and the handshake line, 1754 01:30:42,400 --> 01:30:44,960 Speaker 8: and and and watching that yesterday.

It wasn't just shaking hands. 1758 01:30:57,280 --> 01:31:00,360 Speaker 8: It wasn't blowing through the line head down. If you're 1759 01:31:00,360 --> 01:31:02,800 Speaker 8: a Canadian player, you're mad. The last thing you want 1760 01:31:02,840 --> 01:31:05,000 Speaker 8: to do is shake hands with the team that just beat. 1761 01:31:04,840 --> 01:31:05,679 Speaker 5: You in one gold. 1762 01:31:06,479 --> 01:31:10,960 Speaker 8: It was manned a man, direct eye contact in a 1763 01:31:11,120 --> 01:31:13,720 Speaker 8: show of respect, and I just thought it was so 1764 01:31:14,479 --> 01:31:22,200 Speaker 8: really cool.

He was killed 1768 01:31:38,840 --> 01:31:42,200 Speaker 8: you've probably heard the story alongside his brother in twenty 1769 01:31:42,280 --> 01:31:45,400 Speaker 8: twenty four when they were struck by an suv riding 1770 01:31:45,439 --> 01:31:48,479 Speaker 8: their bikes and they were in town for their sister's wedding, 1771 01:31:50,240 --> 01:31:53,760 Speaker 8: and Johnny Goudreau would have been a candidate.

Maybe I eventually will have to. 2183 01:55:58,200 --> 01:56:00,160 Speaker 8: But if you consider some of the event that that 2184 01:56:00,320 --> 01:56:03,320 Speaker 8: play saw, and sadly it's been gone now ten years. 2185 01:56:04,000 --> 01:56:07,480 Speaker 8: It was demolished in twenty I'm sorry eight years, demolished 2186 01:56:07,520 --> 01:56:11,800 Speaker 8: in twenty eighteen. But I mean you had the Cincinnati 2187 01:56:12,000 --> 01:56:15,000 Speaker 8: Royals play there, and think of the NBA players in 2188 01:56:15,080 --> 01:56:18,720 Speaker 8: that time that came through Cincinnati, Bill Russell and Wilt 2189 01:56:18,800 --> 01:56:22,760 Speaker 8: Chamberlain and Pete Merrivich and guys like that. You had 2190 01:56:23,280 --> 01:56:26,120 Speaker 8: with the sixty six I think because I think it 2191 01:56:26,160 --> 01:56:28,480 Speaker 8: was the year I was born.
