Speaker 4: j D and Greg silver Red But yeah, I.
Speaker 3: Know, so they did. They did a lot of cow
Speaker 3: chat today, which was fun. But there's that lull. What
Speaker 3: I haven't really gotten my head around is it during
Speaker 3: the mid days there is a lull where there is
Speaker 3: no one here. Yeah, and so having some warm bodies
Speaker 3: is kind of nice.
Speaker 1: See good, Yeah you too, man. Well, yeah, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: get my feels right, I'm gonna get my lion's share
Speaker 1: at tim pretty it's coming off. The Niners is cranked
Speaker 1: it up. Soon, groove in the car ready for We're
Speaker 1: We're a week from uh Thursday is the first preseason game,
Speaker 1: but we're nine days away.
Speaker 2: From h Robert Sollas Tennessee Titans coming.
Speaker 1: To town, as I've been calling them. In relation to
Speaker 1: the Golden Yeah, because I've always thought Golden State was pretty.
Speaker 1: It was a pretty lame way to go about it,
Speaker 1: Like like I didn't love California Angels, but I thought
Speaker 1: Anaheim was better or not even in La County, you know.
Speaker 1: I mean, not that the Nyers play in San Francisco,
Speaker 1: played in the San Francisco Bay area, but I always
Speaker 1: thought Golden State was pretty whack, especially because you, like,
Speaker 1: you played in San Francisco. I never and you were
Speaker 1: in Oakland, which was also a major city, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean? Like that, I didn't I didn't understand
Speaker 1: ever as a kid. So I've started calling the Titans
Speaker 1: the uh the Volunteer State Titans. That's what's what I'm
Speaker 1: going that's accurate.
Speaker 4: So yeah, it starts a week from Thursday, where Tim's
Speaker 4: drive you down to Levi's.
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, that's our that's our only home preseason game
Speaker 1: this year. Just nice, by the way, we'll talk about
Speaker 1: it later. But the Rams flying into Australia the day before,
Speaker 1: by that, I.
Speaker 4: Kind of like that, man, it's the Derek Papa way
Speaker 4: to travel internationally.
Speaker 1: Yeah, He's like, we don't even know who's playing baby dude,
Speaker 1: who's gonna spend more time on their trip, the Rams
Speaker 1: to Australia or Derek when he went to run.
Speaker 4: That's a fourteen hour flight and they are just going
Speaker 4: the day before and then leaving right afterwards.
Speaker 1: Oh I've been not that quickly. No, they're gonna spend
Speaker 1: more time in the air than they will have in astress.
Speaker 4: All of you mocked me for that, being like, oh,
Speaker 4: you spend three days in Italy.
Speaker 2: Sean mcvayh thinks the same way I do.
Speaker 1: Dude, the NFL the arrogance of an NFL coach. That
Speaker 1: can just be like bodyclock. Look, we're looking at body clock.
Speaker 1: Body clock's good, but we're more concerned with the real clock.
Speaker 1: And the thing is when time you look at time,
Speaker 1: it's really about gravity. It's a flat circle. We figure
Speaker 1: body clock's a flat circle too. We're trying to make
Speaker 1: that game clock a flat circle. Seere what we can
Speaker 1: do on defense, and you know, we're looking for a
Speaker 1: lot of fun and uh, you know, f sleep F
Speaker 1: them picks, F those hours asleep not a big deal
Speaker 1: for us. Yeah, pretty ACU. That's kind that's kind of
Speaker 1: how I think mcvay's gonna do it.
Speaker 5: Man.
Speaker 1: Plus he's not even really care once Aaron Donald signs
Speaker 1: that deal.
Speaker 4: Did you see over the weekend someone asked him to
Speaker 4: give his body language, his facial expressions on if Aaron
Speaker 4: Donald's gonna come and he's such a goof too. They
Speaker 4: were like, so, what's your confidence that Aaron Donald's coming back?
Speaker 1: He goes, Dude, I gotta tell you, I've never been
Speaker 1: so frustrated, like I like when Mookie Bets got traded
Speaker 1: to the Dodgers. That just upset me because you like,
Speaker 1: because I love watching mooki Bets play. Yeah, guy's a blast.
Speaker 1: I don't I love watching show Heyotani play. You know
Speaker 1: what I don't love now? Watching show Heotani play that much?
Speaker 1: It's not cute anymore.
Speaker 2: What about Trek Scuble now?
Speaker 1: I mean, like, I like, I love watching school pitch,
Speaker 1: but pitchers are still different. It was, it's more like
Speaker 1: the spectacle that he's showed Heyo Tani, where he'd throw
Speaker 1: one hundred miles an hour and he'd hit a ball
Speaker 1: one hundred miles an hour and hit five hundred feet,
Speaker 1: like when he was an angel. As I said to
Speaker 1: Rod Brooks when you were out of town for three
Speaker 1: days in uh Italy, Italy, I said, dude, if I
Speaker 1: could go back and like change one thing to have
Speaker 1: happened that that didn't really affect me in sports, but
Speaker 1: I want to change Yeah, but I got to like
Speaker 1: make sure the Angels got a tani. He's kept o
Speaker 1: tani because I was like, there's the most harmless place
Speaker 1: he could be, right, like, like we don't have to
Speaker 1: watch him hurt anybody. We can watch him put up
Speaker 1: just meaningless numbers that nobody's ever put up before. We're like,
Speaker 1: look at how cool that is, dude, And that's stupid
Speaker 1: tea done in anah. It doesn't make any sense, no
Speaker 1: big deal. But now he was out here like now
Speaker 1: he's infringing on my happiness and my pleasure in getting
Speaker 1: I don't get to enjoy his career in the same
Speaker 1: way because he's a Dodger.
Speaker 4: But you have to change like the whole philosophy. Who's
Speaker 4: an ardy Moreno, the old current owner still right, Lady.
Speaker 1: Marina is still there. He remember he put up a
Speaker 1: petition to say he was going to sell the team.
Speaker 1: And at first he said he was going to sell
Speaker 1: the team. Then he said, you know how to change
Speaker 1: my mind because everybody got stoked about it. Everybody was
Speaker 1: super hyped that he was going to sell the team.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you have to change his thought process where
Speaker 4: it's like you should invest in a team that's good,
Speaker 4: he goes.
Speaker 1: Now, come on, I think they made the offer to Atani.
Speaker 1: Also think they did. Yeah, they tried to, but it's
Speaker 1: like you should have They should have traded it. He
Speaker 1: should have traded him. My point here is like I
Speaker 1: didn't like. I didn't like. I really liked watching those
Speaker 1: guys play before they went to the Dodgers. Now I'm
Speaker 1: like miffed about them being doed. Of course, that same
Speaker 1: with like when when Jeff Kent left, I was like,
Speaker 1: I love been being a giant. Didn't like when he
Speaker 1: left and he talked smack and then he went to
Speaker 1: l am like, yeah, forget this. Same with Jason Schmidt.
Speaker 1: I was so heartbroken when Jason Schmidt said that's rough.
Speaker 1: But then he barely played and it was okay, you know,
Speaker 1: I mean ended up being a great contract in terms
Speaker 1: of how much money he took and how lookful as
Speaker 1: a Dodge, how little he contributed. The difference with me
Speaker 1: and Sean McVay is he didn't never coach anywhere else where.
Speaker 1: He was a part of my lexicon or in my
Speaker 1: life right. He was an assistant in other places. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but it's not like you're getting front facing Sean McVay
Speaker 1: all the time before he became the head coach of
Speaker 1: the Rams. Yeah, and now that he's like developed this
Speaker 1: like persona where first he's just the young sort of
Speaker 1: like as screw this guy, let's see if you can
Speaker 1: get it done whatever, turn things around quick, he becomes
Speaker 1: this this whiz kid, this wonder kid type of coach. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And now to me, he's just like he's like a
Speaker 1: baby Gruden in the term, like not in the personality
Speaker 1: per se, but in the charisma, in the absolute positivity.
Speaker 1: He's like he's like a Harbond and Gruden had a
Speaker 1: baby almost. To me, yeah, Like he's.
Speaker 4: The complete opposite of Kylee Shanahan and press conferences Wherekyle
Speaker 4: just wants to get through.
Speaker 1: It, I can't wait to yeah, where he's like riffing.
Speaker 1: He's like constantly positive everyone things are going terrible for.
Speaker 4: And he's been on record saying I hate the mid
Speaker 4: game interview where selman Fay's like, yeah, you know, we played.
Speaker 2: Well the first time, blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 1: These interviews are hard. They're hard enough. Best it is,
Speaker 1: you gotta do it in game. I felt for you.
Speaker 1: I feel bad lot. I just figure we'reing this together.
Speaker 1: I'm a team guy, You're a team guy. We try
Speaker 1: to get through it. Man. Yeah. By the way, we
Speaker 1: need to bring back hosk You any questions anything I
Speaker 1: like to know for he would what do you want
Speaker 1: for dinner? What are you thinking about after the game?
Speaker 2: By the way, we need to bring back coach speak.
Speaker 1: There we go. We would have I.
Speaker 4: Mean, like, did you see this whole thing with Liam
Speaker 4: Cohen being but heard that the Jaguars don't get enough
Speaker 4: publicity And he's like, yeah, I see Caleb Williams on
Speaker 4: NFL dot Com all the time.
Speaker 1: Hold on, hold on, Colin, you're the most wins, like
Speaker 1: since ninety nine as a franchise last year. You're upset.
Speaker 2: But he loves playing that car.
Speaker 1: This reminds me exactly of when Jim Rome had his
Speaker 1: TV show in ESPN Rome and he would just run
Speaker 1: through topics, like you know on PTI when they've got
Speaker 1: like the list of topics next to him, of course,
Speaker 1: and they just run through just peppers through the rundown.
Speaker 1: Rome would like start his show like that, or he'd
Speaker 1: do like a Rome. He would like just like blaze
Speaker 1: somebody right, you'll be on fire, so he'd just give
Speaker 1: like a quick quip and everything. And there was one
Speaker 1: who was the year that Hawaii was like eleven or
Speaker 1: zero with Colt Brennan at quarterback, I know five, two
Speaker 1: thousand and six to six somewhere in there. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: he goes, uh remember because that's when we started the
Speaker 1: BCS championship course. And so while Hawaii defeated, I think
Speaker 1: they might have been the only endefeater or one of
Speaker 1: the only other undefeateds, one of the top two, and
Speaker 1: they did. It's like when Coastally Carolina named themselves national championship.
Speaker 1: So I'm like, you can they did. Yeah, you don't
Speaker 1: remember that they gave out rings. Oh yeah, we'll go
Speaker 1: back to two thousand and seven. Okay, that was seven
Speaker 1: for the Colt Brennan team with Hawaii. So uh Brennan. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Brennan was like vocal about and dude, he's a college kid.
Speaker 1: He's like, yeah, man, we just get to play for
Speaker 1: the national title. It's not our fault they schedule these games.
Speaker 1: We just play who's in front of us. So they
Speaker 1: never got renked higher than like, I don't know, let's
Speaker 1: I don't even know, maybe number eight nine, where were
Speaker 1: they tim Maybe you can find it. They never got
Speaker 1: ranked like in the top two to be a BCS contender,
Speaker 1: right right, Yeah, So Rome is talking about her and
Speaker 1: he goes Colt Brennan, you're wondering why Hawaii doesn't get
Speaker 1: a shot out the national championship. First of all, you're Hawaii,
Speaker 1: and if your argument, and then he moves on to
Speaker 1: like the next bit, that's kind of where I'm out.
Speaker 1: I'm like, Collen, you want more, you want more attention
Speaker 1: for the Jags. First of all, you're the Jags. End
Speaker 1: of your argument, You've got to continue to put up
Speaker 1: numbers and you got to continue to win. Plus you're
Speaker 1: in Jacksonville. Your owner like lobbied to play games overseas
Speaker 1: so you could be the top team in London.
Speaker 4: By the way, and in the bowl game they faced
Speaker 4: number four Georgia. You know the final out come of
Speaker 4: that like thirty eight to three, forty one to ten. Yeah, dude,
Speaker 4: they got rolled.
Speaker 1: I didn't play anybody that year. They got rolled San
Speaker 1: Jose State. I remember that who they played. I played
Speaker 1: Festival or something. Uh no, it was a Sugar Bowl.
Speaker 1: It was a Share Bowl. Yeah. Oh, they played Georgia.
Speaker 1: Y Yeah, but they played SA was a state in
Speaker 1: New Mexico state state. Yeah, that's about it. And if
Speaker 1: your argument Cohen Yry Collen's pissed that the Bears are
Speaker 1: getting run, it's the Chicago Bears. Now, there are teams
Speaker 1: in sports that get unbelievable run nationally and on the
Speaker 1: national talk shows regard like the Bears were gonna get
Speaker 1: talked about whether Caleb Williams was playing in Chicago. They
Speaker 1: are the Bears. I mean, it's did we watch have
Speaker 1: do we watched this prior to this season? New York
Speaker 1: Knicks get run all the time. Yeah, Cowboys haven't won
Speaker 1: up but an MFY championship game in how.
Speaker 2: Uh nineteen ninety five.
Speaker 1: There you go.
Speaker 2: I mean it was warranted because they went to the
Speaker 2: playoffs last year.
Speaker 1: But said that, regardless what I'm saying, regardless of the
Speaker 1: Cowboys are going to be talked about, The Lakers will
Speaker 1: be talked about, the Celtics will be talked about, the
Speaker 1: Nicks will be talked about. These are teams that it
Speaker 1: doesn't really matter how good they are, They're going to
Speaker 1: be like like Marquis Franchis, the Bulls don't still get
Speaker 1: talked about a bunch.
Speaker 2: No, they get no run no because Michael Jordan.
Speaker 1: But they're not at the NFL. No, it's different.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I think it's just funny.
Speaker 4: Liam Cohen's like, how come they're not talking about this
Speaker 4: like Aaron Rodgers just Nam McAfee.
Speaker 2: How come they're not bringing this stuff up on the network?
Speaker 1: All right? Dirty? Yes, Rogers bitching about the same stuff, dude.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're gonna Fauci and Diana Rossidia.
Speaker 1: I'm like, what'd you expect due to fucking Fauci on ESPN?
Speaker 1: By the way, what did you think Rogers thought of Fauci?
Speaker 6: You know?
Speaker 1: I mean, I didn't need Rogers take on it. We
Speaker 1: all knew what you thought.
Speaker 2: Bro, I'm surprised.
Speaker 4: But he's like, how come the network's not bringing up
Speaker 4: Fauci like ESPN's talking about Fauci.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Rogers looks at Coverd the way I look at
Speaker 1: his wife. Neither exists anyway? Canby our four one, five,
Speaker 1: five sixty seven is the number to call and the
Speaker 1: number de text where we come on back? More from
Speaker 1: Buster Posey spoke on the Giants Big Trade deadline. Here's
Speaker 1: the question I've got for callers and for listeners what's
Speaker 1: the one thing Buster made crystal clear this trade deadline?
Speaker 1: If you can pull anything away from this trade deadline,
Speaker 1: what's the one thing he made crystal clear? We'll get
Speaker 1: to your calls. We'll talk about that next. Plus, Tim
Speaker 1: is back for a half show, a short show. It
Speaker 1: only took like eight people being out for him to
Speaker 1: get here. But we are going to do Tim's Tuesday
Speaker 1: takes in trivia. It's Tim the whole Man Web on
Speaker 1: a Tuesday on The Sports Leader.
Speaker 6: Now back to Dirty Work. Adam Copeland and Derek pop.
Speaker 1: On K and B R one oh, four, five and
Speaker 1: six eighty am The Sports Leader. Dirty Work on a
Speaker 1: Tuesday afternoon, filthiest day of the week. Sure you know
Speaker 1: yet to the weekend. You're far from the last one.
Speaker 1: So they got Humpday ahead of you. And that's why
Speaker 1: we're here for you in Dirty Work. Hell yeah, we are.
Speaker 1: Thanks to the film for tuning in. Tim. Tim's hanging
Speaker 1: out with us for the day, which is a lot
Speaker 1: of fun. Who's with us the rest of the week?
Speaker 1: We got we got oh do you know?
Speaker 6: Tim?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 4: No, Kyle Horror, I think tomorrow and then Thursday, No
Speaker 4: rast with us back tomorrow then it's Kyle Horror on Thursday,
Speaker 4: and then we get a double dose of chips and
Speaker 4: horror on Friday.
Speaker 1: Good. Chips and horror sounds good. I'm not sure what
Speaker 1: cuisine that is. Ships and hars sounds delicious. Roasted chips
Speaker 1: and horror. Chips and roasted horror. Yeah, I like that,
Speaker 1: all right, we asprey taste. We do have giants pregame
Speaker 1: at four oh five, and we will get into some
Speaker 1: of the stuff that happened today with Buster posey uh
Speaker 1: speaking of the media and given some more updates as
Speaker 1: to what happened yesterday. Six players traded off the big
Speaker 1: league roster and by the way, the lineup is out today,
Speaker 1: there's been a couple of guys called U. Buddy Kennedy's here,
Speaker 1: he's the DH today. I don't know what happened with
Speaker 1: Bryce Elders got an up date for one. They didn't
Speaker 1: tell us because Elders was in there yesterday. Nate Furman
Speaker 1: in there, and then you had to I think that's
Speaker 1: his name.
Speaker 4: And then so he's got a left thumb bruise after
Speaker 4: getting jammed a few times last week. He said the
Speaker 4: planets for him to start at first base tomorrow. He's
Speaker 4: also available to run any night if they need.
Speaker 1: Is stolen bad right, So nothing huge for for Bryce Eldridge,
Speaker 1: but dealing with the thumb Brews also, uh, we got
Speaker 1: this do guy Eddie's Leonard?
Speaker 7: Oh yeah?
Speaker 1: In their left field, it's gonna be a lot of
Speaker 1: new guys. I was signed, uh I guess by the
Speaker 1: Dodgers like seven years ago. He was still only twenty
Speaker 1: five years old. Giants that acquire, and he's been in
Speaker 1: the miners. He's only played a handful of games in Sacramento,
Speaker 1: and I saw he was only hit maybe only like
Speaker 1: six or eight games or something like that in Sacramento.
Speaker 1: He's only hitting a buck forty three, only has four hits,
Speaker 1: but all four our home runs. Not bad. So he's
Speaker 1: in there's five to eleven. He's got some bat speed, apparently,
Speaker 1: can play all over the nfield. He's in there left
Speaker 1: field today. So we'll talk more about that and just
Speaker 1: a bit. But the question I'm asking really is what's
Speaker 1: the one thing you think Buster made crystal clear at
Speaker 1: this trade deadline? And I wrote that a couple of things.
Speaker 2: Okay, so I'll run these by.
Speaker 1: You tell me what you think I got one do
Speaker 1: we might I give mine real quick. Yeah, sure, my
Speaker 1: list is longer than one.
Speaker 4: Well, I figured, yeah, But what was was abundantly clear
Speaker 4: yesterday was pitching is the future.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I wrote he values pitching. Yep, that's that's one thing,
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna ask you these, but I wrote that
Speaker 1: one down was something that I totally agree with, that
Speaker 1: he values pitching, because I think it's important note that,
Speaker 1: because even as recently as yesterday, we had callers saying,
Speaker 1: for a guy who won these championships with all this pitching,
Speaker 1: he should know how important it is to develop pitching
Speaker 1: and black a lot of I don't think he doesn't
Speaker 1: believe that. I think he absolutely knows that. The difference
Speaker 1: in that philosophy with how he operated the team was
Speaker 1: that he came in and he poured money into spots
Speaker 1: on the roster that were needed. And I think we
Speaker 1: all felt exiting the far Han era that there were
Speaker 1: so many guys that they missed out on or did
Speaker 1: not lock up long term or superstar like cornerstone players.
Speaker 1: I think he just pigeonholed himself into having too many
Speaker 1: eggs in one basket. It didn't work out. And here's
Speaker 1: the other thing that I believe to be true. No
Speaker 1: matter what is said, there's no belief I think for
Speaker 1: any of us that they don't have a budget, that
Speaker 1: he was not given a number. And I think when
Speaker 1: he says that, even if he's being truthful to some extent,
Speaker 1: I think he knows, yeah, we can go over if
Speaker 1: a certain guy becomes available. But that's not saying we
Speaker 1: were being willing to go over budget for one special occasion.
Speaker 1: If you say, hey, this month, we're not spending X,
Speaker 1: Y and Z on your personal budget. We're not eating out,
Speaker 1: we're not at restaurants, we're not going to do anything
Speaker 1: extra curricular. We're spending weekends at home. But then your
Speaker 1: buddy calls and goes, hey, I got engaged. We're having
Speaker 1: a party. You're like, all right, special occasion, we'll make
Speaker 1: an exception. That's not being willing to get that's not
Speaker 1: over budget type spending. The Dodgers are willing to take
Speaker 1: a risk and overspend and give up prospects and do
Speaker 1: things that nobody else is. I think other teams are
Speaker 1: capable of doing, but other teams are not willing to do,
Speaker 1: or because the Dodgers have so much success that have
Speaker 1: been so financially stable are in a position where they
Speaker 1: can handle and accept the blows more than other teams can. Right,
Speaker 1: the Giants aren't willing to go over even though their
Speaker 1: ballparks paid off and so on and so forth. I
Speaker 1: would say that so when Buster's like, no, I wasn't
Speaker 1: given a budget, Greg Johnson also made it clear they
Speaker 1: weren't going to give long term contracts to pitchers. Yeah, right,
Speaker 1: so we kind of knew, like, how can those two
Speaker 1: things go hand at hand? So with the way the
Speaker 1: roster was constructed, I think we all thought, Okay, they
Speaker 1: went really big budget on the back end of this
Speaker 1: rotation and clearly on the bullpen, really signing nobody of
Speaker 1: significance Henches and fully we're like the only two they
Speaker 1: gave deals too. So I think he's showing that he
Speaker 1: does still value pitching. And in concert with that I
Speaker 1: wrote that he values organizational depth. I think he knows that, Like, look,
Speaker 1: they keep acquiring shortstops, they keep acquiring high talent, big
Speaker 1: athletic type players at a really young age in the
Speaker 1: international pool and in the regular draft class. And they've
Speaker 1: also now made a strong commitment this year and last
Speaker 1: to pitching. Right, to at least add that, because that's
Speaker 1: not something. In Caller yesterday it says it's great they've
Speaker 1: hadded this pitching, but they're not proving they can develop it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the last regime didn't really, but this regime is going
Speaker 1: to go about it. I would hope differently because you
Speaker 1: know that they value it in a different way, and
Speaker 1: I think they've gone about that. Okay, here's another one
Speaker 1: I wrote down. Did he make clear to you that
Speaker 1: nobody's safe?
Speaker 4: Yes, not like a Crystal Clear, But I think his
Speaker 4: answer yesterday saying well, we're going diamond Clarity.
Speaker 1: It's not top of the line, but it's pretty good.
Speaker 1: It's got a yellow tint.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 4: You know, while we were wrapped up in the moment
Speaker 4: of all the trades happening in real time, I may
Speaker 4: have overreacted being like, wow, they're really like changing things here.
Speaker 4: It's really more of a pivot, a a pivot than
Speaker 4: a rebuild where there's a lot of guys on this roster.
Speaker 4: I mean there's also the big the big time contracts,
Speaker 4: but it's easier said than done to move off of
Speaker 4: those guys. So I think it's gonna be a mix
Speaker 4: of Yes, I still want to see what we can
Speaker 4: have out of these guys that are still on the team,
Speaker 4: as far as Junghuli, Willia Damas, Raphael Devers and Matt Chapman.
Speaker 1: But I wouldn't.
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna hesitate in the off season to pull
Speaker 4: the trigger on another move. So yes, by him saying
Speaker 4: we let teams know that everybody was available, I still
Speaker 4: think he could revisit trades with Logo Web and all
Speaker 4: the guys I just mentioned.
Speaker 1: Did he did he make crystal clear to you that
Speaker 1: he isn't sentimental?
Speaker 2: I'm not sure that was made clear yesterday.
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, I look, the Elliott Ramos one is
Speaker 1: the one move that you would hit on that you
Speaker 1: say that, But it's not like there's a huge sentiment
Speaker 1: from him. I also like, I don't seemingly they've had
Speaker 1: a good player in return. But again, these are all
Speaker 1: just prospects. Prospects are great, Yes, all they are is potential,
Speaker 1: and potential is unlimited until it's realized, right, right, So
Speaker 1: it's all just everything can look great at SAWS. Susan
Speaker 1: Selester says she talked to a scout yesterday. We said
Speaker 1: the Giants cleaned up right, and I was like cool,
Speaker 1: that's great that scouts feel that way, but scouts get
Speaker 1: most things wrong, right, That's t evidence by how few
Speaker 1: guys get to the major league. So not that they're
Speaker 1: wrong that they shouldn't be pros, but like who knows
Speaker 1: until that guy gets to the major leagues has other
Speaker 1: players adjust to their adjustments and they've got to figure
Speaker 1: it out again, like can they have sustained big league careers?
Speaker 1: And being a really good player doesn't mean an All Star,
Speaker 1: doesn't mean you'll ever get back what you had in
Speaker 1: Elliott Ramos. But I do think he's proven, hey, just
Speaker 1: because of the feelings, like let me rephrase it, because
Speaker 1: I'm with you. I don't think he proved he's not sentimental.
Speaker 1: But I do think Buster showed that he's willing to
Speaker 1: make decisions that are maybe not the most popular if
Speaker 1: he believes they're right. Right.
Speaker 2: Well, he showed that a year ago when his former
Speaker 2: teammate Late Night lamon.
Speaker 1: Lamon is df fade so fair enough and.
Speaker 2: He reflected on that a little bit.
Speaker 4: But also, like when I was listening to the audio
Speaker 4: this morning of Buster posey, I was kind of expecting
Speaker 4: him to be like, yeah, Elie Ramos, you know, an
Speaker 4: All Star for us, you know, all the moments he
Speaker 4: had in the last few years, but he really just
Speaker 4: didn't care to bring that up.
Speaker 2: He kind of just looked looked as usual.
Speaker 4: So I don't I think he's just kind of that
Speaker 4: guy where he's going to focus on the trades and
Speaker 4: more the people that were part of the organization. I
Speaker 4: don't think you proved that yesterday. I think he's just
Speaker 4: he's ready to move on, and he shows that he's
Speaker 4: willing to do that with anybody right now.
Speaker 1: Yeah, let me ask you this. Did he make clear
Speaker 1: yesterday that he has a long term vision? Yes. I
Speaker 1: think that's an important one too, because that's all I
Speaker 1: said was I wanted direction, and I think he's proven
Speaker 1: that while we knew his short term vision was right now,
Speaker 1: right now, it's time to go. We saw those major
Speaker 1: league changes. Yeah, last year, I think he showed, hey,
Speaker 1: there is a vision for the future and it is
Speaker 1: about pitching and athleticism.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I based on what he's tried to pack the system with.
Speaker 4: I believed him when he was introduced a couple of
Speaker 4: years ago when he said he wanted to compete with
Speaker 4: the Dodgers, and I think at that time, he was like, Okay,
Speaker 4: I'm going to build a team that's going to challenge them.
Speaker 4: I want to go get Ravel devers Ad before the
Speaker 4: trade deadline. But since that time, I think he's realized.
Speaker 4: I keep talking about the evaluation season of last year.
Speaker 4: I think he looked at the entire roster. I think
Speaker 4: he looked at what he had and a manager in
Speaker 4: Bob Melvin, and thought to himself, you know what, I'm
Speaker 4: not sure they're as good as I thought they were.
Speaker 4: So I'm gonna get a college coach in here, the
Speaker 4: guy that I trust in, a guy I believe in.
Speaker 4: But if we need to pivot where it's a much
Speaker 4: younger roster, then I think that he can take the
Speaker 4: reins here and he can show you know, what he's
Speaker 4: good at by building a team with you know, young
Speaker 4: guys knowing to go out there to the college ranks
Speaker 4: and finding talent there. So I think it's where the
Speaker 4: next few years we're gona see a mix of him
Speaker 4: trying and still compete with a lot of guys on
Speaker 4: this roster still that making big time money, but at
Speaker 4: the same time, he won't hesitate to pull the trigger
Speaker 4: to make a move.
Speaker 1: Yeah, what's interval, and we'll see what happens with the
Speaker 1: coaching staff. Not that there's changes coming. I don't believe
Speaker 1: this offseason if I Tello, But I do wonder, like
Speaker 1: everything we're talking about with these young players coming up,
Speaker 1: that's still like twenty I'm looking forward to twenty twenty
Speaker 1: eight and nine to see what these guys may be
Speaker 1: capable of. But I don't know what twenty twenty seven holds.
Speaker 1: And is Towny Vitello still the right guy for like
Speaker 1: where they are now, Like is he the right manager
Speaker 1: for this group of players. I don't know, because I
Speaker 1: really do think that's a fit thing. Let's go to
Speaker 1: the phone lines at eight Oa camb Are four pint
Speaker 1: five eight to eight, five six two seven. Hank is
Speaker 1: in the East Bay. What up, Hank? You're on the
Speaker 1: Sports Leader.
Speaker 8: Hey guys, would you guys think of the trade deadline?
Speaker 8: Thumbs up or thumbs down?
Speaker 2: I guess thumbs up to actually like make some moves here.
Speaker 1: It's hard to like it's I won't say like incomplete,
Speaker 1: because they made I think they did the right thing.
Speaker 1: I think, like philosophically they did the right thing. I
Speaker 1: almost want to ask the question if you're going to
Speaker 1: do as much as you did, why was anybody off limits?
Speaker 5: Why?
Speaker 1: Why was it mostly restricted to guys who were expiring
Speaker 1: contracts or relievers or ancillary pieces Like I almost was like,
Speaker 1: if you're gonna go in for a penny, go in
Speaker 1: for a pound and make everybody available and try to
Speaker 1: flip a bunch like that would have been my idea
Speaker 1: of getting into a full rebuild, even if you have
Speaker 1: those three big contracts. I don't hate. I philosophically like
Speaker 1: what they did. I like what they got back on paper,
Speaker 1: but there's no way of knowing if it was good
Speaker 1: or bad.
Speaker 8: From my perspective, I look at it like, you know,
Speaker 8: outside of a ballpark opening or like a playoff World
Speaker 8: Series run, you'd never seen thirty eight thousand game for
Speaker 8: a team fifteen hundred, five hundred. I thought we should
Speaker 8: have kept the band together because I felt like they
Speaker 8: had like the fifth element.
Speaker 1: You know, And what do you mean? I think it's
Speaker 1: Doug Bruce Willis movie good, great, great, Chris Tucker movie. Yeah, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I love that. Yeah.
Speaker 8: What I mean is that, you know, to get thirty
Speaker 8: eight thousand a night with fifteen under that's very difficult
Speaker 8: to do and to do that you have to have
Speaker 8: an extremely likable group of players. And I would have
Speaker 8: kept it together because you know, people don't realize. You know,
Speaker 8: people talk about Robbie Thompson and Will Clark, Matt Williams,
Speaker 8: Kevin Mitchell, those guys had brutal years, brutal and and
Speaker 8: but people, but we still love those guys. So pause,
Speaker 8: and I just think that, you know that we're developing
Speaker 8: a real sick culture like some Rolling Stones grateful, and
Speaker 8: I think it was just real silly. But I don't
Speaker 8: have the financials, so yeah, Well here's.
Speaker 1: What's interesting, though, dude, is like this, what I'm seeing
Speaker 1: yesterday hand is like I did inter keep the band together?
Speaker 1: I disagree. I think you had to make the moves
Speaker 1: you make because eighteen under. They were eighteen under going
Speaker 1: into yesterday's game, right or I think that's where they
Speaker 1: were at eighteen games hunder before they got the win
Speaker 1: last night. So what I would say is like the
Speaker 1: thirty five thousand who are showing up to the ballpark,
Speaker 1: God bless them, the Giants love them. They're they're lining
Speaker 1: in their pockets. I mean they're showing up, they're spending
Speaker 1: money because going to the ballpark is a spectacle and
Speaker 1: it's a place to be. It's an event, it's a
Speaker 1: place to hang out. But those aren't the thirty five
Speaker 1: thousand die hard Those aren't. Those aren't the people that like,
Speaker 1: if you were a fan base elsewhere there was a
Speaker 1: bigger football team here, there was something else going on.
Speaker 1: I can't tell you that that or that ballpark was
Speaker 1: the Oakland Coliseum. It's not how people would feel because
Speaker 1: there it didn't really matter how much they won. People
Speaker 1: still weren't showing up with that clip because ownership didn't
Speaker 1: seem to care about the fan base. Like, I'm not
Speaker 1: going to put that on the team, but what I
Speaker 1: will say is, like there's seven of the nine guys
Speaker 1: that started this year's that we would call the best
Speaker 1: nine guys in the lineup right now. Seven of those
Speaker 1: guys are going to be in the lineup next year
Speaker 1: and for the remainder of this season. Raphael Devers, Bryce Elders,
Speaker 1: Casey Schmidt's out, but he'll be back next year as well.
Speaker 1: Jung Houli played last night. Susak will be out there, correct,
Speaker 1: not Korea, Willia Damas, Matt Chapman, Like these are all
Speaker 1: pretty much the same dudes that'll be there. Barrakoto is
Speaker 1: still going to be around, Like you've got all these
Speaker 1: players that were here this year. The guys that gave
Speaker 1: up were mostly bullpit arms and to expire in contract,
Speaker 1: you might have been gone anyway. So I'm not really
Speaker 1: not really all that concerned about keeping it together. Plus,
Speaker 1: you can't keep together in eighteen under you can and
Speaker 1: then expect the fans to keep showing up next year
Speaker 1: and do the same thing over and over. So I
Speaker 1: pursued the call, but I disagree to some extent.
Speaker 4: No, I mean to run it back, like I get it,
Speaker 4: like you enjoy this team to some extent because they're
Speaker 4: fun at times and they have a bunch of Grand Slams,
Speaker 4: But that would be for an office meal practice and
Speaker 4: not doing anything of the trade deadline. And also you
Speaker 4: know yesterday, yes I was caught up in and be like, oh,
Speaker 4: this is a teardown, not really, like Andy Begley put
Speaker 4: it pretty well today on the Morning Show, being like,
Speaker 4: it's not a complete rebuild, Like if they were going
Speaker 4: to rebuild, they would have traded Logan Web.
Speaker 2: And he makes a great point at the trade deadline
Speaker 2: with what Trek.
Speaker 4: Scooble went for They probably could probably could have got
Speaker 4: something better for Logan Web with the trade deadline, but
Speaker 4: Buster Posey maybe he didn't.
Speaker 2: But in the end, but he stays on the team.
Speaker 4: So I think what we come away from yesterday is that, yes,
Speaker 4: changes need to be made, and it's tough to see
Speaker 4: Elliott Ramos go with the potential that he has. But
Speaker 4: it's not a complete rebuild. It's you know, trading away
Speaker 4: expiring contracts. But also there could be more moves on
Speaker 4: the horizon. But yes, Buster Posey prioritizes pitching going forward
Speaker 4: for this team.
Speaker 1: All Right, we gotta take a quick break. We'd have
Speaker 1: pregame Giants and the Texas Rangers four oh five pre
Speaker 1: game for a five or five first pitch? Do we
Speaker 1: want do we want to hear from Buster? We want
Speaker 1: to we want to stick with Giants or you think
Speaker 1: we want to jump into some football. Let's you know what,
Speaker 1: Giants the story today. Let's let' let's stick with that
Speaker 1: for a little bit. It's rare. I say that, but wow,
Speaker 1: I know, tim My, how things have changed. I know, right,
Speaker 1: I go away for a couple of months and now
Speaker 1: you're a baseball guy. So what do you want to do?
Speaker 1: What do you think we should do next?
Speaker 3: Yeah, Tim's the guest. Wow, I think he should stay
Speaker 3: with the Giants. I think you should hear from bushro Okay, all.
Speaker 1: Right, dude, we got sound from Ricky pearsall or some
Speaker 1: audio about Ricky Pierce. So no, I'm kidding to take
Speaker 1: it to our opinions account at all. I didn't care
Speaker 1: at all. I'm doing what I want to do. When
Speaker 1: we come on the show tomorrow, we'll come on back.
Speaker 1: It's whatever Derek wants. More Giants talk on these sparks,
Speaker 1: Dallas Mootie, Pass thirty work on a Tuesday afternoon, Adam Copeland,
Speaker 1: Deep Pop, Tim Webban, get out with you by way.
Speaker 1: Danny's out in Chicago right.
Speaker 2: He is trying to get us a souvenir.
Speaker 1: He did Texas and say he got a souvenirs already?
Speaker 2: Did you want to get like a little bean there?
Speaker 1: I think I think he showed us. Uh he went
Speaker 1: to the bean. Yeah, and he and he went to
Speaker 1: like the gift shop till he gave you a toy bean.
Speaker 1: Tell you what I been to the bean. Didn't even
Speaker 1: know there was a gift shop. Yeah, I want to
Speaker 1: buy being Yeah. No, he remember he was gonna get
Speaker 1: us a sponge that was a beam Remember it was
Speaker 1: like it was like a dish sponge. Got a funny sponge? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: not the ones for sex. I felt up. He got
Speaker 1: a sponges.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's the last episode and he's like, uh, yeah,
Speaker 4: she was buying sponges, not the one he cleaned with
Speaker 4: one for sex.
Speaker 1: Game be ours number to call the number of text
Speaker 1: not on sponges on the Giants the Giants trade down line.
Speaker 1: Let's go to J Jay's helos. Got I she's been
Speaker 1: waiting on the line. Jay, what's up, dude? You're on
Speaker 1: the Sports Leader.
Speaker 7: Hey, how's it going?
Speaker 1: Uh? Pretty good, dude.
Speaker 7: Hey, I'm on a Giant season ticket older and uh yeah,
Speaker 7: I'm kind of upset that I got my invoice and
Speaker 7: the price went up again for next year.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then it did. Okay.
Speaker 7: My thing is I got a question that no one's
Speaker 7: really been talking. All Right, guys, two years from now,
Speaker 7: Tony D's contracts up, we're sixty.
Speaker 5: Five and ninety seven eight. Do you resign him? And
Speaker 5: that's the last year of logan webs. Does he walk
Speaker 5: and want to go to.
Speaker 7: A team to give title potentially.
Speaker 5: I agree, Well, here's the thing.
Speaker 1: If things aren't improved as like by next year, I
Speaker 1: think it's on the table. Logan Web could be moved
Speaker 1: at the deadline, and same to say in twenty twenty eight,
Speaker 1: like you're talking about walking unless they offer him an
Speaker 1: extension between now and then, which I think is still
Speaker 1: on the table. I think it's maybe something that they'd
Speaker 1: want to do. I would think so. But it like
Speaker 1: if he doesn't sign an extension and his contract is expired,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't expect him to be here if the team
Speaker 1: is still floundering now, if nothing improves, or you're still
Speaker 1: under five hundred and two years, unless you're you've got
Speaker 1: a trajectory. Like the way I would think about it,
Speaker 1: Jay is like you go back to Bochi gets hired
Speaker 1: in two thousand and seven, right, and he's there to
Speaker 1: like usher out the Bonds era. So Bochi's they're no. Seven,
Speaker 1: they're no good, Oh eight, they're no good, but oh nine.
Speaker 1: Bochi goes into that season as a lame duck manager
Speaker 1: with no contract after that year. But they win eighty
Speaker 1: eight games and they missed the playoff. But they won
Speaker 1: eighty eight. You've got to have some trajectory or some upswing.
Speaker 1: They can't keep floundering or toiling in mediocrity or worse
Speaker 1: and then have a guy get renewed. That's bad optic,
Speaker 1: That looks bad on the whole organization. So the question is,
Speaker 1: if they haven't improved in twenty twenty eight, I would ask, like,
Speaker 1: what does next year look like? And if if it's
Speaker 1: not improved, why are we still sitting there in twenty
Speaker 1: twenty eight with the same situation. So it's not I mean,
Speaker 1: we can't project two years out, but if things are
Speaker 1: this bad or around this bad in two years, I
Speaker 1: don't know why anybody would still be here.
Speaker 5: I didn't like the Higher. I really didn't. I played
Speaker 5: college ball and I didn't get drafted. But if I
Speaker 5: got drafted and was blessed to play in the major leagues,
Speaker 5: I would want my manager to be able to tell
Speaker 5: me how it was for him going through the minors
Speaker 5: or in the majors, what he did durnis slump, or
Speaker 5: what he saw with fellow major league players. He can't
Speaker 5: tell them that. So that was my thing with the Higher.
Speaker 5: I didn't like it.
Speaker 1: I hear you man, I totally appreciate that, Jay, thanks
Speaker 1: for the call.
Speaker 5: Man.
Speaker 2: I mean, I mean that's more than fair.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's what it's what anybody who ever says, ah,
Speaker 1: that person's too young for this job, or they don't
Speaker 1: understand they haven't lived long enough. Really, that's just what
Speaker 1: it's about, right, It's about living through enough experiences that
Speaker 1: you can have empathy with somebody else or compassion to understand,
Speaker 1: even if it's not identical to say, I can remember
Speaker 1: a time I was in a situation like that that
Speaker 1: I can put myself in your shoes. And I'm talking
Speaker 1: I'm talking bigger picture of life more than i'm talking
Speaker 1: just baseball, right, But I understand all that now to
Speaker 1: your point that you're making. And murphastbustered this question when
Speaker 1: he was on a couple of weeks ago. He said,
Speaker 1: do you think and he goes, I'm just asking in general,
Speaker 1: do you think, Like, not to take anything away from
Speaker 1: relationships with guys now on the roster, but he said,
Speaker 1: do you think Tony would be better suited with a
Speaker 1: really young roster just being that those are guys maybe
Speaker 1: he's more comfortable around in terms of their development, Like
Speaker 1: I think It's impossible to answer that directly, but if
Speaker 1: that really was the plan, this would be a weird
Speaker 1: situation to bring Tony into since you didn't come into
Speaker 1: the season with a really young roster. You didn't come
Speaker 1: into the season with a bunch of guys at the
Speaker 1: major league level or close to it to be developed.
Speaker 1: So if the plan was for that to happen in
Speaker 1: three years, it is odd then that it happened right
Speaker 1: now with this hire. But that meant that Buster thought
Speaker 1: this was the right guy for this team and for
Speaker 1: the future. Yeah, but that was a changing culture, And
Speaker 1: that's the question I keep asking, is what culture has
Speaker 1: evolved or changed under Vitello. I'd say to his point, nothing.
Speaker 4: Well, I would say for I mean, not that it's cemented,
Speaker 4: but I think Tony Vitel is coming back next year
Speaker 4: and that that he gets a pass for the rest
Speaker 4: of this season. He has to show some growth next
Speaker 4: year as well. But I think it's also where Buster realized,
Speaker 4: if this team is not good and I need to
Speaker 4: pivot and make this team younger, closer to a college
Speaker 4: team than Tony Vitel is the right guy for this now.
Speaker 4: Can he connect to veterans that's the biggest question. That
Speaker 4: was my biggest thing coming into the season, along with
Speaker 4: managing a bullpen. But like, can you relate to Rafield Devers.
Speaker 4: He could go on, you know, a trip with Willia
Speaker 4: Domisa jung wu Lei, but can he relate to those veterans.
Speaker 4: And that's maybe the human aspect of it, But as
Speaker 4: far as like an inexperienced, you know, college coach, that's
Speaker 4: going to be tough. So I think that Buster wanted
Speaker 4: his cake and eat it two where this guy is
Speaker 4: good enough, I just want him on my team. But
Speaker 4: if it's going to be where we have to change
Speaker 4: things up, I feel comfortable that he can relate to
Speaker 4: college players.
Speaker 1: This cake and to eat at Pew like Florence we're
Speaker 1: talking about yes, yes, sitting in that bathtub and Spider Man,
Speaker 1: you got a Russian bath dude that she called her office.
Speaker 1: It's not a coming out.
Speaker 2: Did she take a visit?
Speaker 1: She made him strip down. She's like, hey, come on, yeah,
Speaker 1: it is underwear. Yeah, but she's like you gotta get
Speaker 1: in and he's like, you won't take the mask.
Speaker 2: But it's it's because she doesn't want to see if
Speaker 2: he has weapons or anything.
Speaker 1: Yeah, She's like, that's why you gotta get it. You've
Speaker 1: seen it. No, I haven't. I just you know, people
Speaker 1: don't know this one scene with Flora's play in the bathroom,
Speaker 1: in the bathroom, let's move on, all right, dude, what
Speaker 1: are you getting your murph on with Madonna eighty three?
Speaker 1: And come on? He's like Florence Pugh twenty twenty six.
Speaker 2: I can't tell you what's on my for you page.
Speaker 1: Dirty Laundry, But Italy gave me our four and five
Speaker 1: away five sixty seven. Everybody our care for talking Niners?
Speaker 1: Now everybody can we haven't played the audio yet either.
Speaker 1: All right, we'll play some Buster at we can find. Dude, fine, do.
Speaker 6: You know me? Man?
Speaker 1: Dude?
Speaker 2: How about Jones in the Talks of Giants?
Speaker 1: Derek legit? Can I show behind the scenes? Can I
Speaker 1: tell what happened with our interaction earlier? Sure? Derek text
Speaker 1: me before the show, like, and I was still at home.
Speaker 1: He goes, do you think we should Giants for like
Speaker 1: the whole first hour? Do you think we should go
Speaker 1: like react to Buster a bit and then we can
Speaker 1: jump into some some Niner stuff? And I said, did
Speaker 1: you know me? I'm a football guy? I'm like football
Speaker 1: through and through. I've always been a football guy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that kid that's were like righting off scores and Derek
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, we're going right into Fine, we'll talk
Speaker 1: some football. Heauess I'm a football guy too for sure.
Speaker 1: Now this guy's clamoring for more baseball. Well, so you'll
Speaker 1: hear from Buster posey because Derek wants, nay demands you do.
Speaker 2: Hey, come on, all right, I give the people what
Speaker 2: they want.
Speaker 1: Is that what they want? I think today tomorrow is
Speaker 1: a different story. I thought I was. I thought that
Speaker 1: was what I want. Thought that's why you asked me.
Speaker 1: I just wanted your opinion. Literally, nobody's responding to you
Speaker 1: but me. Right now. You only have my opinion to hear.
Speaker 1: But you're still taking what you think? What line say?
Speaker 1: What's YouTube saying? You check it out? Man, I don't know.
Speaker 1: You gotta read them all four O wa checks itu.
Speaker 1: Well yeah, dude, they're all checking it on giants because
Speaker 1: we're talking giants. Yeah, I know. We'll hear from Buster
Speaker 1: next and then we'll get into Ah, why don't we
Speaker 1: maybe we do a split segment. What if we start
Speaker 1: with Buster and then if we are if We're like,
Speaker 1: if you and I are really struggling, we're like floundering
Speaker 1: for things to talk about. What's happened. Sometimes we'll jump
Speaker 1: into some nine. Yeah, if we can, are we if
Speaker 1: we don't tell anybody, we do it. We just shift
Speaker 1: the middle of the segment. I think we can pull

Speaker 1: Bumber Uh let's out. Let's hear some of this sound
Speaker 1: here from Buster Posey. Is this from today, yesterday? Yesterday?
Speaker 2: This was the press conference that happened at three thirty
Speaker 2: of Ya Zoom.
Speaker 1: So we were talking yesterday. Somebody call then called it
Speaker 1: a fire sail, and I was like, I wouldn't go
Speaker 1: quite that far. Fire sale to me is like anything
Speaker 1: everything must go.
Speaker 2: I just think of David Cross and an arrested development.
Speaker 1: It's a fire sail. Tobias, dude, Tobias never knew it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: got there's georts Man, He's never knew great care naked man.
Speaker 1: Everybody joins the blue Man group too.
Speaker 2: He blew himself.
Speaker 1: I mean, the best church on the whole show. In
Speaker 1: my opinion, I think so he's by far as Tobias.
Speaker 1: And then and then don't forget his relationship with Carl
Speaker 1: weathers man life. You got stew going, he's like some
Speaker 1: meat on that bone.
Speaker 2: You take Bias, you will blow hard.
Speaker 1: You can get home boiling up. Throw throw some vegetables
Speaker 1: in there. You got your stet stew going. It's pretty good. Uh,
Speaker 1: here's Buster Posey. He was asked specifically yesterday if yeah, well,
Speaker 1: don't take you to Tom's kitchen for a stew update.
Speaker 1: Still put meat on that boat. You take this home,
Speaker 1: throw it in the pot at some broth the potato
Speaker 1: you got on my favorite. We did a segment because
Speaker 1: Tom mentioned one time, yeah, I'm going I'm making a
Speaker 1: stew on Friday, and we just checked through with him
Speaker 1: throughout the day, how's a stew going? And he that
Speaker 1: it was good and that's Tom. Update have a production team,
Speaker 1: do that, dude, that's so funny. Here's Buster Possy. He
Speaker 1: was asked specifically yesterday, after six trades off of the
Speaker 1: major league roster, would you call this a rebuild? Do
Speaker 1: you have a message to the fans? Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 9: I guess you can characterize it with how you want.
Speaker 9: I wouldn't necessarily say a rebuild. I mean, obviously we
Speaker 9: moved some some six major league players off of our
Speaker 9: roster today. I guess the messages we're not satisfied with
Speaker 9: the way that we've played this year in the last
Speaker 9: few years, and we're trying everything we can to to
Speaker 9: continue to build a product that that we can all be, uh,
Speaker 9: you know, excited to come and watch, and and that
Speaker 9: was really the goal. And this is can we even
Speaker 9: if we have to subtract a little bit now, can
Speaker 9: we potentially add some players that we think our fans
Speaker 9: are going to be excited about and hopefully wear a
Speaker 9: Giant's uniform for a long time.
Speaker 4: I would say this organization is allergic to the word rebuild,
Speaker 4: like he doesn't want to say that Larry bar a
Speaker 4: couple of weeks ago, so that. But you know what,
Speaker 4: when you tell fans are doing a rebuild, they get
Speaker 4: turned off. And I you know, we had a guy
Speaker 4: called in just a moment ago saying like, I want
Speaker 4: them to run it back. I like this team that's
Speaker 4: eighteen games below five hundred, and that's just male practice
Speaker 4: a Buster Posey. Yes, it's the right message. It's not
Speaker 4: a fire sale, like there's still a lot of guys
Speaker 4: on this roster still. But at the same time, he's like,
Speaker 4: it's not good enough, and I see value in Elie
Speaker 4: Ramos trading him away now and getting prospects back for him.
Speaker 2: Same thing with aspiring contracts. So it wasn't a.
Speaker 4: Huge rebuild yesterday. No, but there's still could be more
Speaker 4: moves on the horizon. When Buster Posey says, we told
Speaker 4: teams everyone's available right now, so you could see down
Speaker 4: the line with a trade, I'd be surprised if was
Speaker 4: Raphaeld Devers if Rafael Devers was moved later on, But
Speaker 4: I wouldn't be surprised if will you doomas Matt Chapman
Speaker 4: or Logo Weber moved in time?
Speaker 1: Interesting right enough to we were talking tobias from arrested development.
Speaker 1: We have more of tobias on the trade deadline.
Speaker 7: Oh my god, we're having a fire sale.
Speaker 1: Oh man, there's more. I myself would not call it
Speaker 1: a rebuild. No, a rebuilt would have been everything must go.
Speaker 1: It would have it would have been not limited to
Speaker 1: players who were expiring or just bullpen arms. Major pivot,
Speaker 1: major pivot. Yeah, no, you salute him, dude, how would
Speaker 1: you describe I wouldn't even I wouldn't even call it
Speaker 1: a major pivot. Again, aren't they going to come into
Speaker 1: next year with like seven dudes who were starting games? So?
Speaker 1: What the hell was yesterday? Then? It was a commitment
Speaker 1: to a new direction or a future plan for the Giants.
Speaker 1: It was using the assets you have to make sure
Speaker 1: you've got a future plan, because that's what we said.
Speaker 1: I said, did Buster make clear yesterday that he has
Speaker 1: a long term vision? I think that was a commitment
Speaker 1: to his long term vision and a commitment to organizational
Speaker 1: depth and admitting that there are some things here that
Speaker 1: need to be fixed. It's also telling us that go
Speaker 1: into the next year, the bullpen is going to look different,
Speaker 1: telling us the radiation is going to look different. Dude,
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's what yesterday was. Doesn't say a
Speaker 1: lot about this team today, tells you where their focus
Speaker 1: is going to be going into twenty twenty seven, I
Speaker 1: would hope, because you don't have a choice. Now. We
Speaker 1: just watched you not build a bullpen for a year
Speaker 1: with these three big contracts. We just watched you not
Speaker 1: build the rotation for a year with these contracts and
Speaker 1: the guys who were stables here, So what are you
Speaker 1: gonna do for next year? So it's a retooling for
Speaker 1: next season, and it's also a focus on the vision
Speaker 1: for the future. That's how I see it.
Speaker 4: It also could be where the lineup is relatively the same,
Speaker 4: and it could be the same thing a year ago
Speaker 4: from now, where you hope they're better, but Buster says,
Speaker 4: we're below five hundred, it's time to trade.
Speaker 1: Chat to me, rebuild would be a pretty big cleaning
Speaker 1: of house, where like we're like seven of your starters
Speaker 1: next year are different guys. Okay, and you're like and
Speaker 1: you're like giving a lot of young guys. Yeah, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, like working, That's that's what a trick.
Speaker 1: Like what did the White Sox do, Like they didn't
Speaker 1: have a bunch of contracts that were sitting on they
Speaker 1: like unloaded and said we'll eat it. Whatever. We're focused
Speaker 1: on the young cheap player right now. More from Buster
Speaker 1: here he is on on Logan Web's future with the team.
Speaker 1: So he's under contract through twenty twenty eight. Yes, And
Speaker 1: that's what I mean is like if you were going
Speaker 1: to rebuild, rebuild, you could still hold on the Web
Speaker 1: and trade a bunch of other things. But still I
Speaker 1: do question why he was an absolute hands off type
Speaker 1: of guy when he would have netted you the biggest return.
Speaker 1: And not to say you can't do it next Like
Speaker 1: there's there's reasonablyive his value if he pitches better at
Speaker 1: the start of next season, No, WBC would be even
Speaker 1: higher than it is right now. Even though you've got
Speaker 1: one lesson around the deal, here's a bust around Logan
Speaker 1: Web's future with the team.
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean I don't think it's it's out of
Speaker 9: the realm of possibilities at all to think that we
Speaker 9: can we can be in contention. And Webby's a guy
Speaker 9: who's been around for a long time. He's a pros pro.
Speaker 9: Had a great conversation with him a couple of weeks
Speaker 9: ago and was just really enthused to see his enthusiasm
Speaker 9: about where he is at this point in his career
Speaker 9: and his understanding. I think of of what it's going
Speaker 9: to take as he's starting to rack up the years
Speaker 9: and the innings to continue to be pitching it an
Speaker 9: elite level, And was was just really encouraging just to
Speaker 9: hear I think how excited he was about the way
Speaker 9: his body was feeling. Feel like he had not to
Speaker 9: speak for him, but you know, making some changes with's
Speaker 9: the way he's doing some of his work, and just
Speaker 9: felt like his body was in a really good place.
Speaker 9: And he's He's a guy that I think we all
Speaker 9: see as somebody that can can mentor the next wave
Speaker 9: of pitchers that come through San Francisco. And yes, I
Speaker 9: do think that, you know, we we feel like there's
Speaker 9: still a chance, as bad as this year has been
Speaker 9: this year, that we can be a team that can
Speaker 9: be in contingent contention and to be in contenent.
Speaker 1: You gotta have an ace, and Logan Web is a
Speaker 1: true race. You know, I look at him that way.
Speaker 1: I really do view him in that higher regard or
Speaker 1: hold him in that higher regard. If if you were
Speaker 1: a betting man, would you and I and I offered
Speaker 1: you two wagers right now, would you be more likely
Speaker 1: to bet on what's more likely to happen Logan Web
Speaker 1: is at some point traded away from the Giants at
Speaker 1: some point in this contract, or he's signed to an extension.
Speaker 1: What would you think is the more likely thing to
Speaker 1: happen based on everything I mean this is about. This
Speaker 1: bet would have to be based also on your belief
Speaker 1: in the organization to change in the next like three years,
Speaker 1: because if they're you know, a five hundred team, that shit,
Speaker 1: let's just say they're back to the status quo, right
Speaker 1: back to five hundred. Let's say there's seventy eight and
Speaker 1: eighty three, whatever the hell it is, like they're right
Speaker 1: back around five hundred. Okay, Like, is that a team
Speaker 1: that you'd want to offer an extension to a player for? No,
Speaker 1: you shouldn't. You should probably trade away Logo Web in
Speaker 1: that situation. If it's two years from now and you're
Speaker 1: on the same thing again. Like that's where I'm like,
Speaker 1: when do you start thinking the extension? So back to
Speaker 1: that question, what's more likely to happen and what's more likely?
Speaker 1: What do you think if you could bet on one,
Speaker 1: what do you think is going to pay you out
Speaker 1: he signs the extension or he's traded.
Speaker 4: Signs the extension. Because I think Buster your Posey values pitching.
Speaker 4: I TH's a whole hell of a lot and if
Speaker 4: it's going to be an effusion of youth when it
Speaker 4: comes to pitching, he wants an as I know.
Speaker 1: The irony of this year alone. But yes, I agree
Speaker 1: with you, and yet it's ironic how they went about it.
Speaker 4: No, I mean, do you agree with Andy Begley where
Speaker 4: he says if you trade a logo Web at the
Speaker 4: trade deadline yesterday that you could have got more in
Speaker 4: return than what they're school went for him.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because he's a free agent and Web you have
Speaker 1: two more hears left exactly.
Speaker 4: So you know, Buster Posey probably saw a lot of
Speaker 4: offers and thought it wasn't worth it, but maybe comes
Speaker 4: back to them in the offseason. But now, if i'd
Speaker 4: a bet, I think that, yes, he could trid away
Speaker 4: a lot of other guys on this team. I think
Speaker 4: he wants Logo Web here for the long haul, regardless
Speaker 4: of how this team before.
Speaker 1: He's talking mentor yeah that made that. That's a guy
Speaker 1: that they're like, this guy could be a giant for life.
Speaker 6: Now.
Speaker 4: I don't know if that's the best business move, but
Speaker 4: Buster Posey knows good pitching and he values logo Web.
Speaker 4: So despite what we may say on the radio, I
Speaker 4: think the Logo Web's gonna be here for a while.
Speaker 1: Here's more from Buster Posey yesterday on Devers, Chapman, and
Speaker 1: Domas on holding on to those guys and less of
Speaker 1: holding out of those guys and more of like, yeah,
Speaker 1: nobody would pay for me. Here's here's Buster on the
Speaker 1: three big contracts. Yeah.
Speaker 9: I think what I'll say is like we made we
Speaker 9: made it known to teams that we were really willing
Speaker 9: to talk about any player. And you know, I don't
Speaker 9: think it does any good to say one way or
Speaker 9: another for us. We're still excited that we've got those
Speaker 9: big three guys, the Devers. You know that we have Devers, Chapman,
Speaker 9: the Damas on the team and still feel like there's
Speaker 9: a lot of great baseball left for those guys to play,
Speaker 9: and you know glad that they're going to be San
Speaker 9: Francisco Giants.
Speaker 4: That's the best way to respond to that, because they're
Speaker 4: still on your roster. You don't make it seem like, yeah,
Speaker 4: we were closed to deal in them, but damn they're
Speaker 4: still here. I think that he doesn't want to trade
Speaker 4: Raffaeld Devers, not like, no, I'm not not to say
Speaker 4: like Buster's like I can't move him after I made
Speaker 4: a big deal for him last year.
Speaker 2: No, I think that he wants him on this team
Speaker 2: because he's still found it hit. He's close. What does
Speaker 2: he have right now, like twenty home runs? So he's
Speaker 2: still gonna hit thirty home runs.
Speaker 1: He's twenty two or something.
Speaker 4: Yeah, So I think that you see the record, and
Speaker 4: obviously it's been inconsistent at times, but I think that
Speaker 4: Buster wants to hang on to Raffaeld Devers.
Speaker 2: Will you adamis different story. They're loading up on shortstops.
Speaker 1: Well, I think that's part of also why the Marcelo
Speaker 1: Minor trade happens yesterday. One. I think it's a it's
Speaker 1: an high upside player and you bought low and I'm
Speaker 1: down to buy the dip on a player like that
Speaker 1: for a bullpen arm and I know they give up
Speaker 1: a minor league doubtfielder as well. People are like, I
Speaker 1: can't believe they give a I forget your guy's name,
Speaker 1: Carlos Good Heroes maybe or something like that, a single
Speaker 1: A player out of the Emeralds, And I was like,
Speaker 1: we're not wanting to make deals for a reliever, and
Speaker 1: a single A player for a dude he's with a
Speaker 1: top one hundred prospect for the last five years. I'm like,
Speaker 1: I'm okay with this. I also think it's given the
Speaker 1: Giants an out and versatility if they get to the
Speaker 1: offseason and there's somebody who doesn't have a shortstop because
Speaker 1: they're an expired contract or they're not going to sign somebody,
Speaker 1: and Willie Thomas becomes more attractive because it's not just
Speaker 1: about a team that needs a shortstop. It's about a
Speaker 1: team that goes, hey, maybe we've lost a left field
Speaker 1: power bat and we need to add some of that
Speaker 1: power back. We can get that somewhere else. I'm not
Speaker 1: saying that this is going to be a great move
Speaker 1: for anybody, but if the move is for somebody else
Speaker 1: who's looking for a player with a less money on
Speaker 1: the deal now, and we're heading into potentially a lockout
Speaker 1: where unfortunately you would save money on that deal instead
Speaker 1: of going out in free agency. Maybe there's something to
Speaker 1: be had there, but it leaves the door open and
Speaker 1: the giants that aren't at a loss at shortstop completely
Speaker 1: like they would have been.
Speaker 4: And I think that he fielded calls on Matt Chapman
Speaker 4: and wanted takers, and I was like, Matt Chapman's not
Speaker 4: even close to returning at this point.
Speaker 2: He's guys, see a specialist.
Speaker 4: He got an MRI today, So as Alex Pavlovich tweets out,
Speaker 4: it doesn't sound like we'll see Matt Chapman for a
Speaker 4: little bit of time here, and we haven't seen him
Speaker 4: since June. But yeah, I think I think that Buster
Speaker 4: probably made some calls on him as well, and that's
Speaker 4: easier and said than done because he's got the no
Speaker 4: trade clause as well.
Speaker 2: Real Quick saw this.
Speaker 4: On Friday during the MLB Network or sorry, not MLB Network,
Speaker 4: the Apple TV broadcast. You surprised it all with what
Speaker 4: went down with the report with Willia Domas and him
Speaker 4: being kind of hesitant to do some infield work with
Speaker 4: Ron Washington, or you guys think.
Speaker 1: Pretty highly of me if you think I'm watching an
Speaker 1: Apple TV game on a Friday night stones on, you
Speaker 1: guys think that's where I'm spent in my time for
Speaker 1: a team. It's eighteen under not acting like I saw it,
Speaker 1: but I heard about it all the clips of it afterwards,
Speaker 1: and I also know the reporting from Susan Seluster. It
Speaker 1: made me think. We had a call last week where
Speaker 1: somebody said, why isn't somebody called and said this test
Speaker 1: on like Thursday of last week, Why isn't a damas
Speaker 1: working with with Ron Washington. Yeah, I was like, I think,
Speaker 1: I said exactly, I don't know what guys are doing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and after games, I know we get a lot of
Speaker 1: video of whan I said is we got a lot
Speaker 1: of video Eldridge doing it. We get a lot of
Speaker 1: video of you know Dev' has been out there, We
Speaker 1: get a lot of video of Luisa Rise and stuff.
Speaker 1: But I said, I can't speak to like how every
Speaker 1: day's practice and routine work has been going. And that
Speaker 1: was reported as like, oh, Ron Washington's not doesn't like
Speaker 1: that He's not spending time with him, or there was
Speaker 1: some it was weird the way it was phrase that
Speaker 1: the video clip I.
Speaker 2: Can't remember see that it was going along those lines.
Speaker 1: And also Susan Selester reported like there was a bigger
Speaker 1: story on this, And I talked to both of them
Speaker 1: about this in the last two weeks.
Speaker 4: Right like two weeks ago. She said it's more of
Speaker 4: a back issue for William down He's been dealing with it.
Speaker 4: They said about for him to be out there, I
Speaker 4: would say that if you don't get along with Ron Washington,
Speaker 4: something's wrong with you.
Speaker 1: I don't want to even I don't even think that's
Speaker 1: totally what they were saying, right, I mean that's what
Speaker 1: they were saying. I don't think that's totally to be
Speaker 1: I don't think that's the.
Speaker 4: Correction of it, all right. Yeah, and Tony Vttil came
Speaker 4: out the next day and said the whole reports bs.
Speaker 1: So I don't know.
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna put a whole lot stock into that,
Speaker 4: but I do think they wanted to trade William Dominson
Speaker 4: the deadline if they could.
Speaker 1: They're watch an Apple TV game, Kennedy get it an
Speaker 1: on a bar, you know what I mean. I gotta
Speaker 1: go hog. Sorry, guys, gotta get it home to a
Speaker 1: Friday night, I gotta watch the Apple TV game. I
Speaker 1: don't know. I mean, it's brutal. Apple TV game is brutal. Nobody.
Speaker 1: There's not a I don't think there's a baseball fan
Speaker 1: that l likes it. No, not at all. And they're like,
Speaker 1: well we're doing it, like no again, nobody doing it
Speaker 1: for the people. Nobody's flipping around looking at their at
Speaker 1: the Apple TV shows that nobody watches on a on
Speaker 1: a Friday, and it's like, I'll do the The Giants
Speaker 1: are taking on the dres Well.
Speaker 4: I was kind of surprised last night. I was like, oh,
Speaker 4: this game's on ESPN. I thought he's being as a
Speaker 4: due baseball anymore. Now they do, remember, because Ravits is
Speaker 4: still doing I feel bad for I mean, good on
Speaker 4: him to still do those, you know, those games he's could.
Speaker 2: Call the Little League World Series.
Speaker 1: Saw my schedule. He's like I was planning on being here.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but like to have that news come out like
Speaker 4: he's gonna get laid off and he's still you know,
Speaker 4: doing his duty.
Speaker 1: I mean, and like the reports are all like he
Speaker 1: will still be laid off. But he's going to keep
Speaker 1: doing these through a certain date or whatever. I mean, good,
Speaker 1: I think to some of those reports and news, but
Speaker 1: it came out a little prematurely pro before they were
Speaker 1: going to report that. But you know me, dude, I'm
Speaker 1: just trying to get back to the movies, spending my
Speaker 1: Friday nights and my my weekends. Why I saw the invite?
Speaker 1: Oh so the invite and then which I takes place
Speaker 1: in San Francisco. Awesome movie.
Speaker 2: You know I wasn't invited to see the Invite with you, No,
Speaker 2: it was It's not.
Speaker 1: What I would have brought you to. Okay, you can.
Speaker 1: You can hang out with me when you start picking
Speaker 1: better memories that you have of us spending time together.
Speaker 1: I have fond memory was going to Bill Burr. Yeah,
Speaker 1: my favorite day with you was a day on the
Speaker 1: show with an interview.
Speaker 4: So my favorite day with you this is when you
Speaker 4: went was was when you stayed quiet during the Jerry Rice,
Speaker 4: Steve Young.
Speaker 1: And Tim Danny did the newly Weed game with us.
Speaker 1: And he was like, what's your favorite like memory together?
Speaker 1: And I picked that day where Derek and I went
Speaker 1: to see a baller's game last year. I was like dude.
Speaker 1: We went over at Berkeley. We got some pizza, hung out,
Speaker 1: walked up to the through the campus, went and saw
Speaker 1: Bill Burr at at the Greek Theater and Derek put
Speaker 1: down that interview we did with Steve Young, Jerry Rice,
Speaker 1: and Tim Brown.
Speaker 2: I thought it was the show.
Speaker 1: Your favorite memory of me is one time when I
Speaker 1: was sitting here silently next to you while we listened
Speaker 1: to Hall of Famers joking. I remember that time you
Speaker 1: added nothing. That's one of my favorite moments with Tim too. Actually,
Speaker 1: it's my favorite memory of me and Tim that at
Speaker 1: the time that Tim had to sleep on that fold
Speaker 1: out bed that we stayed in there that same room.
Speaker 3: That was a bonding weekend, And personally I thought it
Speaker 3: was the time where I almost that drove off the
Speaker 3: road in the rain storm, and you're like, well.
Speaker 1: I'll see when we get there. I did see the invite.
Speaker 1: I did see Spider Man, dude. I was actually on
Speaker 1: my way back on the bus from Spider Man and
Speaker 1: this dude was reading my book. You know, like on
Speaker 1: the bus where you're sitting on a bench seat and
Speaker 1: like facing one direction, but the other guy's in a
Speaker 1: single seat facing forward. Younger dude gets on and he
Speaker 1: was like sitting across from me. He had dreads too,
Speaker 1: and we like hit a stop where I was just like,
Speaker 1: it's one of those things where I looked at for
Speaker 1: my book just to like look around to see like, oh,
Speaker 1: where are we on the bus? As I like looked
Speaker 1: back towards the guy, we kind of like locked eyes
Speaker 1: for up, not even locked eys. We's like past eyes
Speaker 1: for like half a second. I went back to my
Speaker 1: book and I've had funds in but I'm not listening
Speaker 1: to anything. And the guy goes, hey, man, where are
Speaker 1: you going? And I was like, oh man. I tried
Speaker 1: to ignore it, and then he goes geat. He's like,
Speaker 1: where are you going? He said, O man, And yeah,
Speaker 1: I look up and he goes, oh man, I look
Speaker 1: up and I was like, I saw him going home.
Speaker 1: And he goes on a Saturday. Man, it was like
Speaker 1: five o'clock. He was on a Saturday. I was like, yeah, man,
Speaker 1: I'm just going home. And he's like, man, I'm trying
Speaker 1: to get to be like you. Man, I gotta get
Speaker 1: to I gotta get to be like you.
Speaker 5: Man.
Speaker 1: I was like, all right, okay, well, just being comfortable
Speaker 1: going Yeah, and I put my head back in my book.
