1 00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:05,080 Speaker 1: Well, it's a new era for the New York Yankees, 2 00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:07,720 Speaker 1: or should I say a return to a pre George 3 00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:08,600 Speaker 1: Steinbrenner era. 4 00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:11,240 Speaker 2: Beards and being able to have beards is so important 5 00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:14,080 Speaker 2: to this generation. There will be parameters. 6 00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:16,960 Speaker 1: That's right. The Yankees have dropped their facial hair band. 7 00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:20,120 Speaker 1: Is it a signal of a larger culture shift coming 8 00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 1: for the organization? We'll talk about it right now. Stay 9 00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:26,840 Speaker 1: of the Yankees coming up. This is Panstrip Territory. 10 00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:28,639 Speaker 2: One of the two capsule. 11 00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 1: All right, welcome back, everybody. Welcome back, and welcome to 12 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:42,480 Speaker 1: Terrence Kim, my co host from Los Angeles.

Let's hear it for Baseball card person. 16 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 1: All right, all right, Terrence, So we'll talk about today's 17 00:00:56,200 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 1: game in just a minute. But we got a little 18 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,400 Speaker 1: bit of a culture shift happening here. Man, how are 19 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:03,639 Speaker 1: you feeling about this whole thing? 20 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:08,080 Speaker 2: It's funny. I thought the day was coming eventually, and 21 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 2: I think al'se time Renner put it best. If the 22 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 2: beards were gonna get in the way of them acquiring 23 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 2: a player, then that just can't happen. It just can't. 24 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 2: It can't get in the way of winning. I'll tell 25 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 2: you a quick story, Derek. I actually at my job, 26 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,480 Speaker 2: I met Jesse Winker when the Mets were in town 27 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 2: to play the Dodgers, and we chatted a little bit, 28 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,080 Speaker 2: and Jesse Winker's got the long hair with the beard. 29 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 2: He's a great guy, and I just kind of went like, 30 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 2: you know, have you ever heard anything about guys not 31 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 2: wanting to be Yankees because of the beard? Like what 32 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 2: you know, would you shave to be a Yankee? And 33 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 2: he was like, his response was, you're never bigger than 34 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 2: the team, so most guys will conform with the rule. 35 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 2: But he did say like for somebody like Austin Wells, 36 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 2: who has to shave literally every day because they got 37 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 2: quite a beard, He's like, it does kind of get annoying, 38 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 2: I'll admit, and I understand that. So I think the honestly, 39 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 2: Devin Williams and his picture has this like tight kind 40 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:03,559 Speaker 2: of like what you got going on right now, Derek, 41 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 2: it's like close to the skin. I think, I think 42 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 2: that's fine. I don't see a problem with it. 43 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 1: And this is pretty much as full as it gets 44 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 1: for me. So I'd be good if it was, you know, 45 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: if I was a Yankee. No, I think that you know, 46 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 1: close shaves, you know, is you know, a little bit 47 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 1: of stubble. A light beard is fine. It's not gonna 48 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: hurt team chemistry. It doesn't make you look any less professional. 49 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: I was saying today, my tax guy's got blue hair, 50 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 1: like nobody cares anymore. People can do whatever. You know, 51 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 1: nobody cares what you look like as long as you 52 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:34,920 Speaker 1: do your job. And I think it's, you know, possibly 53 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 1: part of a culture shift. I mean, what else can 54 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 1: the Yankees do to be more fun again? Right? I 55 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: feel like, you know, since they're not winning, they you 56 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 1: know they well, I I'm fair. They they got to 57 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,079 Speaker 1: the World Series last year, but they haven't won a 58 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: World Series in quite some time. 59 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 2: Uh. 60 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 1: That aura of being the team uh is gone. It's 61 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 1: that's that team is the Dodgers. Now everybody looks. Everybody 62 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 1: picks the Dodgers. All the international players want to play 63 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:04,080 Speaker 1: for the Dodgers. What can the Yankees do to be 64 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,359 Speaker 1: that team again? I feel like getting out of these 65 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:12,919 Speaker 1: antiquated rules with the beard is one step. Do you 66 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: think if there's anything else culturally that they could do 67 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:17,799 Speaker 1: to be more fun, I. 68 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:19,799 Speaker 2: Mean not really. You saw it last season. Even I 69 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 2: remember Alexan Erdugo wearing like yellow spikes and jazz Chisen 70 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 2: with the ice cream glove and even that kind of stuff. 71 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:28,800 Speaker 1: City connect, What does a city connect? 72 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 2: A city connect? This is where I draw the line 73 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 2: as the uniforms. Funny enough, I do look at the 74 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 2: Dallas Cowboys. They wear white at home like that, they 75 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 2: have alternate uniforms, but I guess the Yankees and the 76 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 2: Cowboys are kind of the same sort of They're a 77 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 2: comp I think across leagues, and they've kind of gone 78 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 2: out there, but they've kept it very traditional. So for 79 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 2: a city connect, my idea would be doing basically like 80 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 2: the Yankee pin stripes, like the normal home pin stripes, 81 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 2: but make them cream to give them that kind of 82 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 2: like Babe Ruth kind of era vibe, like that old 83 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 2: school vibe, and then like change up the font I 84 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 2: guess a little bit, but I really wouldn't want to 85 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 2: do anything more than that. I saw some mockups of 86 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 2: like doing this like Lady Liberty Green kind of thing, 87 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 2: and I don't know, man, I just I'm not really 88 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 2: like down for it. I think the cream pinstripes on 89 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 2: Sundays would be cool for like a city connect, but 90 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,840 Speaker 2: other than that, I'm not really like trying to do 91 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:28,160 Speaker 2: all that. 92 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: What about like an alternate on the road, like some 93 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 1: you know those blue jerseys they wear for training, those 94 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: are kind of hype, man. I would wear those on 95 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 1: the road, you know, not every time, but maybe like 96 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: weekends or something like that. 97 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not against a Navy alternate on the road, 98 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 2: not the one with the interlocking NY though, the one 99 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,279 Speaker 2: that says New York across the chest on the road. 100 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 2: Doing that one on the road as an alternate, I'm 101 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 2: down for that. But I feel like Yankee pin stripes 102 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 2: at home period and a discussion like the real Madrid 103 00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,080 Speaker 2: in soccer wears white at home period. They always do. 104 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 2: It's just kind of one of those things. 105 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 1: So we know Devin Williams is he's already growing his beard, 106 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 1: Like that's you know who else who else is gonna 107 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:11,040 Speaker 1: take advantage of this policy? Like who's gonna show up 108 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: on opening day against the Brewers and he's gonna run 109 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 1: out to the first baseline they're gonna say, and playing 110 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: such and such number whatever. Now featuring a beard, who 111 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,480 Speaker 1: do we think. I mean Austin Wells probably, like you said, 112 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,039 Speaker 1: he has to shave all the time. I feel like 113 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 1: he's gonna let it go. Yeah, I don't think. I 114 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: still don't think Judge is gonna grow one, even though 115 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: he had one like in the off season. I could 116 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 1: see maybe Garrett Cole, like like he did in in Houston, 117 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,719 Speaker 1: maybe a light beard, but not like a full, full 118 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 1: blown beard. 119 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 2: I think Austin Well's definitely because it's such a pain 120 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 2: in the ass for him to shave all the time 121 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 2: and it's a convenience thing. Anthony Volty can't grow a beard. 122 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 2: Neither can bed Wise. I think Garrett Cole will probably 123 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 2: rock a little bit of that kind of stubble. I 124 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 2: think Carlos Rodin definitely, and he's like, oh yeah, for sure. 125 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 2: I would say the Martian Martian can grow a pretty 126 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 2: nice one. He's probably gonna rocket, I would think, and 127 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 2: gold Schmidt he'll kind of have that light stubble thing 128 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 2: going on. And like I said, man, I don't have 129 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:15,599 Speaker 2: an issue with it as long as you're not doing 130 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 2: like Johnny Damon red Sox k vies. You know, I 131 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:20,359 Speaker 2: like keep it close to the skin. 132 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 1: I like what Brian Cashman said, We're not gonna go 133 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:28,839 Speaker 1: Duck Dynasty. Yeah yeah, but Belly, somebody said Bellinger, I 134 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: could definitely see him showing up with a beard. I 135 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,280 Speaker 1: don't think Jazz will grow one because he didn't have 136 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 1: one in Miami. Like he just seems like he's a 137 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: clean shaven kind of guy. Who else we got. I mean, 138 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 1: I'm sure, I'm sure he can. He's he's almost thirty. 139 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 1: I'm sure he can grow. Although, to be fair, I 140 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 1: was in my thirties before I could really grow a 141 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 1: full beard, and it's still not I mean it's still 142 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 1: not great. 143 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 2: You know yours. Yours comes in like I'm twenty four 144 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:56,600 Speaker 2: and I only really get like the the around this 145 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 2: area and then like very patchy on the side. I 146 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 2: actually shaved this morning, funny enough, so we talk about 147 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,600 Speaker 2: culture there. But I don't think Judge will do it. 148 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 2: I don't think I don't think a lot of guys 149 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 2: will do it. I really just see Wells because it's inconvenient, 150 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 2: Rodin because he has to shave all the time, Belly, 151 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 2: gold Schmidt, Martian Cole. I feel like that's all I 152 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 2: can really say. Oh, and Devin Williams. I think Devin 153 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 2: Williams is kind of the guy who started it because 154 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 2: then his like teen photos, he already had the beard 155 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 2: coming in and I was like. 156 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: Sketch you then beard kind of pushing the limits there 157 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 1: a little bit over there. No, I agree with one 158 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 1: hundred percent. All right, So let's talk about game one 159 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: of the spring training schedule here. I didn't get to 160 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 1: watch as closely as I would have liked to because 161 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: I was covering foul territory right during that window. You know, 162 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 1: spring training games are paying the butt for me. But 163 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 1: we got a few notes here. Jazz Chisholm at second 164 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 1: base today, so that answers one question where the Yankees 165 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 1: are viewing him. He made a nice smooth backhanded play 166 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 1: in the first doing that. I liked a strong throw 167 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 1: looking at Volpi, he he buffed up like he is looking. 168 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: My man's looking jacked right now, and he threw one away, 169 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: also hustling down the line. You like that he's hustling 170 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 1: even in spring Bellinger looks smooth to me in center field, 171 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: not only on the nice play where he kind of 172 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: slid and picked up a short hop and threw the 173 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 1: runner out a second, but there was one, just a 174 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: pop up towards like shallow right field, and he just 175 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: glided in there, kind of like Bernie. Just nice even stride. 176 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 1: Dominguez in the leadoff spot where I've been putting him 177 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 1: all winter in my mock lineups. Walked in his first 178 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 1: at bat after having a full count, so that's good. 179 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: He was also hustling today. He looks to be in 180 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,319 Speaker 1: great shape. He also bobbled a ground ball to the left, 181 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 1: so not a great start there. I swear to god, Terrence, 182 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 1: I saw that, and I just I did the Picard 183 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 1: face palm. I just niceness. 184 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:50,599 Speaker 2: I just do you have the Vietnam helicopter. 185 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 1: That's great, that's a great reference. Your references are the best. Man. 186 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: Everybody knows that Smith. Uh. I like that he chokes 187 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 1: up on the bat. I didn't realize that he choked 188 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 1: up on the bat, but to me, I've always liked that. Yeah, 189 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 1: he's also Barry Bombs choked up on the bat. Nothing 190 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 1: wrong with it. I know that. Like they you know, 191 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: when you're getting the bat around a little bit slower 192 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 1: as a kid, somebody just like, well, choke up. But 193 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,719 Speaker 1: that's something that works when you're a kid. But h 194 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: I don't think enough professionals do it because it it 195 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 1: does give you a little bit more bat control, a 196 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 1: little bit more barrel control, and if you're just trying 197 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 1: to barrow up the ball, Like if you look at 198 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 1: his his swing, it's almost like he's swing in a paddle, 199 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: right he just the way he has that very short 200 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: follow through, it makes sense that he would choke up 201 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 1: and just try to control the barrel a little bit. 202 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 2: It's almost like a like a cricket swing, like he's 203 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 2: it really is that, you know, keeping the keeping it 204 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 2: really flat through the zone there. But he he golfed 205 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 2: one kind of like off the wall for a double 206 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 2: today gold Schmidt and dude, I saw this crazy stat 207 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 2: that Rizzo only had one hit last season that was 208 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 2: hit harder than the double that Goldschmid today. Well, I honestly, 209 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 2: like I understand people wanted, you know, Walker or Alonzo, 210 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 2: they wanted a better first base option. I'm really down 211 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 2: for it. It's a one year deal. It's like kind 212 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 2: of a low risk deal. If he's terrible, it's kind 213 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 2: of like, okay, you only have him for a year. 214 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,319 Speaker 2: And I do think there's a little bit of baseball left. 215 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 2: I think he's a good veteran presence. He won the 216 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 2: MVP in twenty twenty two, which is like not that 217 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 2: long ago. Honestly, it's not like we won it in 218 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:33,319 Speaker 2: twenty fifteen, right. 219 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 1: I feel like that was five minutes ago. It feels 220 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 1: like two weeks ago. That was when Judge hit sixty 221 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 1: two home runs and won the I mean that is 222 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 1: not We're not talking about how different a player Judge 223 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,559 Speaker 1: is now. I mean he's pretty much the same guy now. 224 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: Belly is older, he's thirty seven. But we don't need 225 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 1: him to be MVP Belly Goldsmith. We don't need him 226 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 1: to be MVP Goldsmith, like you said, just be better 227 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 1: than Rizzo. Yeah, if he hits two, if he it's 228 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 1: two sixty with twenty five home runs, that's leaps and 229 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 1: bounds better than Anthony Rizzo. 230 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 2: So I think thirty is on the table. Derek for him, obviously, 231 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 2: I could be thirty. I think thirty is on the table. 232 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 2: It's a lot, but I think he can do it. 233 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 1: I was impressed by the the left handed pitcher Jeffrey 234 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 1: Gilbert today. He came in after brew Baker left. I 235 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 1: didn't see brew Baker's injury. He told me beforehand he 236 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 1: got hit by a comebacker. What happened. 237 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, So he just like he threw pitch and then 238 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 2: he took a comebacker off like his back, like kind 239 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 2: of his back hip area looked like it wasn't like 240 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:37,200 Speaker 2: Bobby Miller with the Dodgers. That was scary if if 241 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:40,719 Speaker 2: you saw that. Yeah, But so he took it off 242 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 2: like the back. I don't really think he was in 243 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,719 Speaker 2: a I mean, I'm sure it was painful. I don't 244 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 2: think he was in an enormous amount of pain. So 245 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 2: he kind of like laid there for a second. Then 246 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 2: he walked off on his own power. And the Yankees 247 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 2: just took him out of the game because it's the 248 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 2: first game of spring training. It'st a total precaution. There's 249 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 2: no point in leaving him in there. That's going to 250 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 2: take him out. So I think he's fine. I haven't 251 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 2: seen any official news, Derek. I'm sure it's just kind 252 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 2: of like he has a bruise. He'll be you know, 253 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 2: he's just gonna take it easy for a day or 254 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 2: two and he'll be fine. 255 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 1: I thought f Ross looked decent. His movement was good, 256 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 1: his movement was better than it was last year when 257 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 1: he came up. But overall, I mean, hey, picking up 258 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 1: a dub, even though it's spring training, is better than 259 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 1: uh dropping one. 260 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,839 Speaker 2: So step yi, this is a Brooklyn Dodger. This is 261 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 2: a Brooklyn Dodger hat, not a Boston hat. I just 262 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,359 Speaker 2: got a comment about that, the reason being my grandfather 263 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 2: grew up a big Brooklyn Dodger fans. This is a 264 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 2: little bit of an homage to him. Plus I'm in LA, 265 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 2: but we're all Yankees here man, that's it. 266 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 1: So yeah, it is what it is. But hey, we'll 267 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 1: take We'll take the first win. Let's talk a little 268 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:44,840 Speaker 1: bit about the team, because we did get some some 269 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 1: rough news here. Chase Hampton, number six prospect, underwent Tommy 270 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 1: John surgery today. We saw Stroman today. Does the fact 271 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,680 Speaker 1: that we just lost our top pitching prospect make a 272 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 1: deal a little less likely for him? I mean, because 273 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 1: we just lost somebody who could step in. 274 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:07,440 Speaker 2: Uh yeah, I just think that with Marcus Stroman, they're 275 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 2: just gonna wait for it to shake out, because God forbid, 276 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:13,200 Speaker 2: Clark Schmidt's back is still barking by opening day, then 277 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:16,199 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, he's your fifth starter. So Michael 278 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 2: Kay was saying this on the broadcast, but I think 279 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 2: teams across the league last year used like an average 280 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 2: of twelve point nine starting pitchers throughout the season, and 281 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 2: today's game pitchers get hurt. You you need the depth. 282 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 2: That's why I like the Carrasco signing. It is very 283 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 2: expensive to have a sixth starter at eighteen million. That's 284 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 2: not really identical, but you do need the depth. And 285 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:39,680 Speaker 2: he's gonna eat a roster spot. It's not like they 286 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 2: can put him in Triple A or anything like that, 287 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:45,079 Speaker 2: so he's probably gonna, I guess, take a roster spot 288 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 2: in the bullpen. And I don't really know what they're 289 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 2: gonna do with him, deal him or not, but I 290 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:50,680 Speaker 2: think they've just got to wait to see how the 291 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,840 Speaker 2: rotation shakes out and who's healthy who's not, and see 292 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 2: how that works out. But you saw what was it 293 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:58,559 Speaker 2: forearm tightness, and he was like going back to New York, 294 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:00,320 Speaker 2: and I was like, that's Tommy John. Yeah. 295 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: Always what were your thoughts on the Boone extension? I 296 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: said on here that I'm not like a Boon hater, 297 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:10,119 Speaker 1: and I'm not like a Boon apology guy either, apologist. 298 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 1: I'm just kind of like, Eh, whatever, he's the manager. 299 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 1: I don't think he really does all that much, you know. 300 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:16,959 Speaker 1: I feel like a lot of it comes from the 301 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 1: front office, and if you wildplace him, you're just going 302 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 1: to bring in a different version of him, you know 303 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 1: what I mean. 304 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I really just think that Boone is I don't 305 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 2: want to be mean here, but I will be a puppet. 306 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 2: I think he's a puppet. I think he's a front 307 00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 2: office puppet. I think that the front office basically gives 308 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 2: him a Hey, this is our game plan, and this 309 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 2: is what we think you should do, and we highly 310 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 2: recommend you do this, and if you don't do this 311 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 2: and it doesn't go well, you're really going to have 312 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 2: to answer for that. And I think that he very 313 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 2: rarely deviates from that decision. I think he handles the 314 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 2: media pretty well. And I'm sure the guys in the 315 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 2: clubhouse like him, which is all really a manager is now. 316 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 2: And yes, if they fired him or they got rid 317 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 2: of him for whatever reason, and they would, they're not 318 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 2: bringing in, you know, Lou Panella or O Walter that 319 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 2: He's just not it's just not happening. They're getting another 320 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 2: analytics guy who's gonna be like thirty, I don't know, 321 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 2: is gonna like connect with the players and stuff. It's 322 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 2: just a different game. Now. 323 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 1: Tony on your said I'm a little bit too pro analytics, 324 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 1: and then he says it's weak. First of all, fuck you, Tony. 325 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 1: Second off, I'm not. I'm not even really like an 326 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 1: analytics guy. I have people on who talk analytics, like 327 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 1: Aiden is my analytics guy. He's like, he's the guy 328 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 1: who knows analytics. I mostly do old school stats. So 329 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 1: fuck Tony. Tony can suck a dick, go ahead, right. 330 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 1: I think I was so unhinged. 331 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 2: I love that though. 332 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I's been a long day and 333 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 1: I'm not feeling great, and I just love it. All right. 334 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:59,880 Speaker 1: You know, all analytics is state for me. 335 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 2: It's information. That's it. You can live and die. But 336 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 2: guess what, man, everybody in Major League Baseball is all 337 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 2: in on the analytics. And it's in the NBA now 338 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 2: with a three point shot, it's in the NFL with 339 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 2: going it for fourth down. I don't really know how 340 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 2: it's instituted in the NHL, but every league, every pro 341 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 2: sport does it, and baseball is obsessed with it. Because 342 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 2: baseball's got about thirty seven thousand different stats to evaluate 343 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 2: a player. Period ended a discussion there you. 344 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: Go, Yeah, I mean it's just data. It's how you 345 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 1: interpret the data. So we're pulling up Tony. I wish 346 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,240 Speaker 1: I had like a middle finger emoji I could put up, 347 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 1: you know, just throw it up head whatever, All right, 348 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 1: what else is on your mind? Man, State of the Yanks? Here, 349 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 1: now's the time to air your grievances. Are your grievances? 350 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 1: What do we got on your mind here? 351 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 2: Well, I saw something that you said about Oswald Praza, 352 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 2: and I am with you. I'm hoping that he wins 353 00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 2: the third base job for a few reasons. I like 354 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 2: him better in the utility role. I like him better 355 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 2: kind of roving around the entire field, the entire infield, 356 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 2: the entire even the outfield. And I hope he wins 357 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,399 Speaker 2: that job. This is also like his last opportunity to 358 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 2: prove it out of options. You're twenty four years old, Like, 359 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,439 Speaker 2: let's see it. Let's see it, and if he sucks, 360 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:20,360 Speaker 2: then you address it at the deadline. And that's how 361 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:22,880 Speaker 2: I think Third Bay should be handled. And I don't 362 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:26,120 Speaker 2: know if you saw the Bellinger play where he made 363 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:29,120 Speaker 2: a really nice play where it was like during Boone's interview, 364 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:32,479 Speaker 2: like live during the game, Yeah, scooped on, he scooped 365 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 2: and he threw the guy out. So I think Bellinger 366 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,120 Speaker 2: and center. I mean, I love Aaron Judge, but Bellinger 367 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,359 Speaker 2: is a better defensive center fielder than Aaron Judges. So 368 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 2: I think the defense looked a lot crisper than it 369 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 2: did last year. I think that's was a point of focus. Obviously, 370 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:49,159 Speaker 2: you know, the offense may have taken a little bit 371 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 2: of a hit, but I really think Jazz is a 372 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,879 Speaker 2: guy who can go thirty thirty. I think that the 373 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 2: Martian has that kind of potential. I don't want to 374 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 2: ask that of a rookie, but I think he's that 375 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 2: good and that sort of offensive output. I think will 376 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 2: we'll fill the hole that Soda left, unfortunately with with 377 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:08,679 Speaker 2: the offense and their defense is better it is. 378 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 1: I saw two nice pieces of base running today, the 379 00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 1: Martian in the first inning where he went first to 380 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: third on the Bellinger single, and then Goldschmidt where there 381 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 1: was the play where he you know, kind of had 382 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,399 Speaker 1: a he kind of got caught in between two spots, 383 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:24,400 Speaker 1: but he made home and scored. What did you think 384 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,400 Speaker 1: a little little minor war of words between Aaron Judge 385 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 1: and Juan Soto. I'm sure you saw this where Judge 386 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 1: is like, well, that seems where that's where he wanted 387 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 1: to be. I would definitely disagree that. You know, the 388 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 1: Mets are going to be more successful for the next decade, 389 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:39,640 Speaker 1: and Soto's like, well, of course he's gonna say that. 390 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:41,639 Speaker 1: The Marlins, if you ask them, would say they're going 391 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 1: to be more successful. And you know, Sodo he I 392 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 1: don't think he did anything wrong, and I don't think 393 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 1: Judge did anything wrong. It feels like social media is 394 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,760 Speaker 1: kind of making it bigger than it is. I saw 395 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 1: the truck that he bought for beaty ninety two thousand. Look, 396 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,879 Speaker 1: if you're getting paid seven hundred and sixty five million dollars, 397 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,080 Speaker 1: you better be given me a Bentley with a bow 398 00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 1: on it, not a freakin' whatever. It was a jeep 399 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: wrangler or some shit. 400 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 2: I think from what I understand, that was Brett Bady's 401 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:09,080 Speaker 2: dream car. 402 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 1: That's kind of oh okay, but that's a weak dream man. 403 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,440 Speaker 2: That's that is a week dream dream higher. You're a major, 404 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 2: but to quote to quote, Derek first of all, First 405 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 2: of all, Juan, fuck you all right, anything that Aaron 406 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 2: Judge said was was wrong? What do you what do 407 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 2: you want him to say? Like, I don't think anything 408 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 2: he said was was bad, honestly, Like, of course he's 409 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 2: gonna say. Every guy on any team is gonna say 410 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 2: we have the best chance to win, and that's basically 411 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 2: what Juan Soto said. I definitely think that it was 412 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 2: much more like the media kind of blowing it out 413 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 2: of proportion. I don't think anything that Aaron Judge said 414 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 2: was bad. And then Juan was kind of like, of 415 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 2: course he would say that, and it's like, well, Juan, 416 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, if I got offered seven hundred 417 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 2: and sixty five million from the Mets, I'd probably have 418 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:54,400 Speaker 2: to consider playing there too. 419 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:57,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, Yankees made him a fair offer. I 420 00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 1: can't blame him for taking, you know, just say it 421 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 1: just beyond Let's just be like, hey, they offered me 422 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:03,920 Speaker 1: seven hundred and sixty five million dollars. They got the 423 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:06,359 Speaker 1: richest owner in baseball who's probably gonna buy Vladdie and 424 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:08,720 Speaker 1: buy whoever else we you know, tell him to get 425 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,679 Speaker 1: in the next decade. That's why I signed there. I 426 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 1: still think the Yankees are gonna have more success over 427 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 1: the next decade. I agree with Aaron Judge on this 428 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 1: because they're just a better frame, Like they're gonna develop 429 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 1: better there. You know, people want to play for the 430 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:24,879 Speaker 1: pin stripes. I mean, it's just it's just what it is. 431 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:30,120 Speaker 1: I I have no real problem with Juan Soto going 432 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 1: to the Mets, but it made me like Wan Soto 433 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:34,959 Speaker 1: a little bit less, Like it made me feel like 434 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 1: his time here didn't mean anything to him, like you 435 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:40,199 Speaker 1: know he It just made me appreciate him less, and 436 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 1: I have trouble going back. Like I watch all of 437 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,120 Speaker 1: John Carlos Stanton's home runs from the playoffs last year. 438 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, but like the the home run that 439 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 1: Juan Soto hit, like it should be one of those 440 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 1: ones that's on repeat or whatever, and I almost never 441 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:51,400 Speaker 1: watch it. 442 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's so annoying because that home run that Soda 443 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:58,240 Speaker 2: hit was like epic, epic, Like I was losing my 444 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:00,240 Speaker 2: mind when I was watching it, and now like I 445 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 2: don't even want to watch it anymore because it makes 446 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 2: me sad. But yeah, totally true. I've heard this a 447 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 2: lot on New York radio and Huan Wan so Do 448 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 2: is a mercenary straight up, just went for the highest money. Period. Now, 449 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 2: if the Willponds were still owning the Mets as the 450 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 2: principal owners, do I think want Soda would be a Yankee, Yes, definitely. 451 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:22,960 Speaker 2: I think that he went to the highest bidder. I 452 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 2: think that if the Chicago White Sox were bought by 453 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:30,360 Speaker 2: Jeff Bezos and he said, here's eight hundred billion dollars 454 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:32,439 Speaker 2: to come play for the White Sox, he would go 455 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 2: to the White Sox and they They're gonna be terrible. 456 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 2: So I definitely think he was just a mercenary man, 457 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 2: and a player is never gonna sit up there and 458 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 2: be like, well, they offered me the most money, so 459 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 2: I signed here. They're not going to say that because 460 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 2: it makes them seem like unrelatable, but I will say this, 461 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 2: and I've I've had discussions with other people about this. 462 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,080 Speaker 2: I think Scott Boris is purely living off reputation at 463 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:55,679 Speaker 2: this point and name because Juan Soto, It's like, how 464 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:58,240 Speaker 2: do you f that up? Seriously, how do you mess 465 00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:00,679 Speaker 2: that up? You can't. It's a generational talent, and all 466 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 2: those other guys are getting deals that are like kind 467 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 2: of so, so like Blake Snow got the one from 468 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:08,160 Speaker 2: the Dodgers, but there was that whole mishap with him 469 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,360 Speaker 2: going to the Giants and then now he's with the Dodgers, 470 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:14,199 Speaker 2: and Bregman waited out a long time. Pete Alonzo totally lost, 471 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 2: totally lost because he turned down a deal from the 472 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 2: Mets for like one p fifty and he ends up 473 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:22,239 Speaker 2: there for like a two year deal or something. And 474 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:25,479 Speaker 2: then the other one was Jordan Montgomery totally nixed his 475 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,439 Speaker 2: free agency and then he fired him. So it hasn't 476 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 2: really been like that great for Scott bors Court. I'm 477 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:35,120 Speaker 2: just saying. And Juan Soto, it's like his mom could 478 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,640 Speaker 2: have got that deal for him, Like. 479 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:39,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, I could have got that deal. I could have 480 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,399 Speaker 1: got that deal. Although I would have steered him to that. 481 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:43,359 Speaker 1: I wouldn't have told him about the seven hundred and 482 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 1: sixty five million dollars offer. I'd been like, man, I 483 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 1: don't know, Cohen won't go any higher. Better sign with 484 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:53,639 Speaker 1: the Yankees.
