WEBVTT - 8-25 The Tony V Show

0:00:00.130 --> 0:00:04.970
<v Speaker 1>Giants-Reds game two at Oracle Park and for the Giants

0:00:05.010 --> 0:00:08.289
<v Speaker 1>last night it was a nice beginning to the game

0:00:08.610 --> 0:00:12.340
<v Speaker 1>for Carson Wisenhut and then suddenly he had to leave

0:00:12.360 --> 0:00:16.300
<v Speaker 1>the game with elbow pain and I know today they

0:00:16.340 --> 0:00:19.200
<v Speaker 1>were going to look more deeply into that. I'm John

0:00:19.220 --> 0:00:22.700
<v Speaker 1>Miller with today's Tony Vitello show and the news does

0:00:22.739 --> 0:00:23.439
<v Speaker 1>not sound good.

0:00:23.920 --> 0:00:27.100
<v Speaker 2>No, you know surgery at this point has been recommended

0:00:27.120 --> 0:00:28.860
<v Speaker 2>and I don't want to say it's inevitable but it's

0:00:29.490 --> 0:00:31.630
<v Speaker 2>it's more than likely what will occur. He'll kind of

0:00:31.670 --> 0:00:34.650
<v Speaker 2>sort through things with his family and agent, and maybe

0:00:34.690 --> 0:00:36.909
<v Speaker 2>you get a second look and things like that. But,

0:00:37.430 --> 0:00:40.110
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's kind of the elbow injury that I

0:00:40.110 --> 0:00:43.120
<v Speaker 2>don't want to say is common, but was the common

0:00:43.200 --> 0:00:45.500
<v Speaker 2>theme in the dugout. And I think with Wiz, when

0:00:45.560 --> 0:00:49.099
<v Speaker 2>it occurred, everybody had a deep sense of what was

0:00:49.140 --> 0:00:49.720
<v Speaker 2>going on there.

0:00:50.040 --> 0:00:54.520
<v Speaker 1>All right. And those quite often end up being like

0:00:54.540 --> 0:00:56.550
<v Speaker 1>the elbow reconstruction type surgeries.

0:00:57.010 --> 0:01:00.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think, you know, the Tommy John surgery is

0:01:01.420 --> 0:01:04.119
<v Speaker 2>more than likely on the horizon. And, you know, that

0:01:04.180 --> 0:01:07.410
<v Speaker 2>calendar year has kind of been a rough estimate. It

0:01:07.430 --> 0:01:10.369
<v Speaker 2>can be different for everybody. But, you know, the timing

0:01:10.430 --> 0:01:13.030
<v Speaker 2>is unfortunate because he was rolling along pretty good and

0:01:13.050 --> 0:01:15.530
<v Speaker 2>I think learning a lot and had a little bit

0:01:15.569 --> 0:01:18.910
<v Speaker 2>of the, you know, month left in the season as

0:01:18.950 --> 0:01:21.710
<v Speaker 2>a great runway to kind of establish himself but also

0:01:21.750 --> 0:01:24.590
<v Speaker 2>just develop. But not only does he not get that,

0:01:24.790 --> 0:01:27.730
<v Speaker 2>but coming back healthy from this might mean, you know,

0:01:27.750 --> 0:01:28.640
<v Speaker 2>a full season.

0:01:29.250 --> 0:01:36.250
<v Speaker 1>Now, also, the shortstop, Willie Adamas, got an MRI, and

0:01:37.090 --> 0:01:40.220
<v Speaker 1>not as dire, but there is an issue with his

0:01:40.530 --> 0:01:41.690
<v Speaker 1>elbow as well. What about that?

0:01:41.950 --> 0:01:45.020
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's a sprain in the UCL area for him

0:01:45.080 --> 0:01:47.840
<v Speaker 2>on his non-throwing arm, which makes it a little bit better,

0:01:47.900 --> 0:01:51.240
<v Speaker 2>but as far as playing anytime soon, that's his lead

0:01:51.380 --> 0:01:54.360
<v Speaker 2>arm in his swing, and it's unrealistic to think that

0:01:54.380 --> 0:01:58.100
<v Speaker 2>it would be right after his 10-day stint on the IL.

0:01:58.140 --> 0:02:00.320
<v Speaker 2>We'll see how much longer. In a little bit, I'll

0:02:00.340 --> 0:02:03.470
<v Speaker 2>be based off, again, taking another look and kind of

0:02:03.850 --> 0:02:05.930
<v Speaker 2>doing all the checks and balances you should when it's

0:02:05.970 --> 0:02:10.350
<v Speaker 2>something that's relatively serious. But, again, the hope there in

0:02:10.710 --> 0:02:12.989
<v Speaker 2>the more than likely scenarios, it's not as serious as

0:02:13.030 --> 0:02:16.470
<v Speaker 2>it whizzes injury, but nonetheless some time to figure things

0:02:16.550 --> 0:02:17.110
<v Speaker 2>out for Willie.

0:02:17.290 --> 0:02:20.550
<v Speaker 1>All right. There are only 31 games left, so is

0:02:20.590 --> 0:02:22.180
<v Speaker 1>it possible that he'll miss the rest of the year?

0:02:22.770 --> 0:02:25.970
<v Speaker 2>It's not without reason to throw that out there, but

0:02:26.030 --> 0:02:28.130
<v Speaker 2>I think you could flip the coin over and say

0:02:28.169 --> 0:02:30.830
<v Speaker 2>the exact same thing. There could be, you know, a

0:02:31.030 --> 0:02:34.290
<v Speaker 2>situation or set of circumstances that allows him to play,

0:02:34.810 --> 0:02:36.549
<v Speaker 2>you know, at the end of the year before.

0:02:36.290 --> 0:02:36.910
<v Speaker 1>It's all over.

0:02:37.070 --> 0:02:39.190
<v Speaker 2>So we'll wait and see. That one's a little bit

0:02:39.210 --> 0:02:40.850
<v Speaker 2>more of a gray area and a little bit more

0:02:40.910 --> 0:02:44.110
<v Speaker 2>of a window of recovery and see where he's at

0:02:44.150 --> 0:02:44.770
<v Speaker 2>after some time.

0:02:44.850 --> 0:02:48.110
<v Speaker 1>All right. So, and a lot of very happy things

0:02:48.389 --> 0:02:50.750
<v Speaker 1>that occurred in last night's game for the Giants, a

0:02:50.770 --> 0:02:52.900
<v Speaker 1>5-0 win over the Reds. We'll Talk about that a

0:02:52.900 --> 0:02:55.980
<v Speaker 1>little bit when we continue. Now more 23-hour with the

0:02:56.020 --> 0:02:59.620
<v Speaker 1>Giants manager, Tony Vitello, and we were talking about the

0:02:59.880 --> 0:03:03.580
<v Speaker 1>bad news regarding Carson Wisenhunt. A lot of great news

0:03:03.840 --> 0:03:08.530
<v Speaker 1>last night with several pitchers who were just outstanding. One

0:03:08.540 --> 0:03:12.790
<v Speaker 1>of those was Jason Foley, who was activated earlier this year.

0:03:12.830 --> 0:03:15.769
<v Speaker 1>He was coming back from his own surgery, and he's

0:03:15.810 --> 0:03:18.590
<v Speaker 1>a guy you generally would use later in a game,

0:03:18.650 --> 0:03:20.530
<v Speaker 1>but all of a sudden he had to be called

0:03:20.570 --> 0:03:24.700
<v Speaker 1>upon uh rather unexpectedly there and man he was great

0:03:24.740 --> 0:03:26.720
<v Speaker 1>because that was a big spot there were a couple

0:03:26.760 --> 0:03:28.450
<v Speaker 1>of guys on and the cleanup hitter was at the

0:03:28.470 --> 0:03:29.389
<v Speaker 1>plate when he came in.

0:03:29.590 --> 0:03:31.490
<v Speaker 2>Yeah you know i asked him after the game if

0:03:31.510 --> 0:03:33.430
<v Speaker 2>he had ever been in that situation before and he

0:03:33.450 --> 0:03:36.650
<v Speaker 2>had not it's it's awkward you don't know what to

0:03:36.690 --> 0:03:40.030
<v Speaker 2>take out of your routine what to shorten um what

0:03:40.070 --> 0:03:41.990
<v Speaker 2>to lengthen because it's an all of a sudden thing

0:03:42.030 --> 0:03:44.570
<v Speaker 2>and you got all eyes on you i think they

0:03:44.590 --> 0:03:46.400
<v Speaker 2>should allow the guy to warm up in the bullpen

0:03:46.440 --> 0:03:49.100
<v Speaker 2>and come out when he's ready um but you know

0:03:49.120 --> 0:03:51.120
<v Speaker 2>you come out there you're on the game mound everyone's

0:03:51.630 --> 0:03:54.400
<v Speaker 2>waiting for you to be ready so the game can restart.

0:03:54.940 --> 0:03:57.460
<v Speaker 2>And then when the game does restart, you're inheriting first

0:03:57.500 --> 0:03:59.120
<v Speaker 2>and third and a good hitter up at the plate.

0:03:59.860 --> 0:04:02.340
<v Speaker 2>And he was outstanding in that situation, handled it well,

0:04:02.820 --> 0:04:06.700
<v Speaker 2>and really kind of kept the game glued together for

0:04:06.860 --> 0:04:09.220
<v Speaker 2>us and then went out there and picked up where

0:04:09.250 --> 0:04:11.770
<v Speaker 2>he left off. The full inning for him was even better.

0:04:11.950 --> 0:04:17.170
<v Speaker 1>Also, outstanding performance from Ryan Walker just back. And I

0:04:17.210 --> 0:04:20.050
<v Speaker 1>know he'd been kind of lengthening it out a little bit,

0:04:20.440 --> 0:04:22.220
<v Speaker 1>in the minor leagues, and it almost seemed like he

0:04:22.260 --> 0:04:24.900
<v Speaker 1>was lengthening it out for a game just like last night,

0:04:24.920 --> 0:04:26.219
<v Speaker 1>and man, he was great.

0:04:26.580 --> 0:04:29.060
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and I don't want to say miscues on the infield.

0:04:29.100 --> 0:04:32.760
<v Speaker 2>A couple plays, just if you get the ideal situation

0:04:32.839 --> 0:04:35.440
<v Speaker 2>or they're made a little more clean, he's got more

0:04:35.560 --> 0:04:38.980
<v Speaker 2>outs or outs come quicker to him, so having said that,

0:04:39.080 --> 0:04:41.140
<v Speaker 2>he even dealt with a little bit of adversity, but

0:04:41.540 --> 0:04:44.099
<v Speaker 2>he really rolled through two innings, and the way things

0:04:44.120 --> 0:04:46.740
<v Speaker 2>were lined up, I guess we still could have won,

0:04:46.820 --> 0:04:49.230
<v Speaker 2>but We were talking in the dugout as soon as

0:04:49.250 --> 0:04:52.029
<v Speaker 2>Wiz went down, like Walker was the guy who was fresh,

0:04:52.570 --> 0:04:54.070
<v Speaker 2>and we were going to need him to carry the load,

0:04:54.100 --> 0:04:55.659
<v Speaker 2>and getting us six outs was massive.

0:04:56.000 --> 0:04:58.520
<v Speaker 1>All right, so it'll be Hauser up against Brady Singer

0:04:58.540 --> 0:05:00.420
<v Speaker 1>and the Reds, game two of the series, and that's

0:05:00.460 --> 0:05:02.140
<v Speaker 1>the Tony Vitello Show for today.
