1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,520 Speaker 1: Tough start to the year, dropping the first series of 2 00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:06,360 Speaker 1: the season to the Texas Rangers. Obviously, there are some 3 00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:09,479 Speaker 1: things that need to be worked through. Luckily, it's a 4 00:00:09,520 --> 00:00:12,039 Speaker 1: long season, everybody. You got one hundred and sixty two 5 00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:15,480 Speaker 1: games to play in total. It's only one series. Let's 6 00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:19,120 Speaker 1: not overreact, Okay, there is actually a lot of positives 7 00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:22,640 Speaker 1: I think from this series. I'm going to be honest 8 00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:24,440 Speaker 1: with you. You know, I mentioned this a couple of 9 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:27,200 Speaker 1: times through the first couple of games there. You know, 10 00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 1: it felt like a playoff series. You know, every game 11 00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 1: was pretty competitive for the most part, pretty close for 12 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:37,000 Speaker 1: the most part. This is a Texas Rangers team where 13 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:39,840 Speaker 1: they're tough. This is a team that won the World 14 00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:41,360 Speaker 1: Series a couple of years ago. You still got a 15 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:44,080 Speaker 1: lot of those core players on that team. You got 16 00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:47,640 Speaker 1: to grom Back, who looked great today. You know, even 17 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,680 Speaker 1: though he has kind of tinkered his approach, you know, 18 00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:53,400 Speaker 1: going with a bit less velocity, not trying to just 19 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 1: throw complete gas all the time. He just looked like 20 00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 1: a different guy out there. But you know, changing up 21 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 1: his style getting the job done. This is a very 22 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,399 Speaker 1: good Texas Rangers team. I want everyone to keep that 23 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 1: in mind, we're gonna play the Rangers again down the road. 24 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:09,959 Speaker 1: We will meet them once again, and I think will 25 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 1: be a little better next time around. But some instant 26 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 1: reactions here runners in scoring position. I mean, this is 27 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 1: the I think, the big topic right now, and I think, 28 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:22,559 Speaker 1: how do I say this? You know, I'm not trying 29 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 1: to sound like all like you know, like daffodils and 30 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:29,559 Speaker 1: daisies over here, Like, yes, there's obviously a problem right 31 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 1: with the runners in scoring position. They need to get 32 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: that fixed. But I will say, if that is the 33 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,959 Speaker 1: main problem right now, and you know you have the 34 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 1: bats in this lineup, I'm feeling pretty good moving forward. 35 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 1: To be completely honest with you again, I'm not trying 36 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 1: to just paint everything as like a biased Red Sox fan. 37 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 1: I really just think you feel like you're really close. 38 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 1: You feel like you're about to bust through that glass ceiling. 39 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 1: You know, you feel like you're you're on the edge. 40 00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: You know you're getting there, right. I think it's only 41 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 1: at a time before this offense bust through. You know, 42 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: Raffie Devers, you know that's the big problem here, right. 43 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 1: I mean, this is the guy that stirs the drink. 44 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 1: He is the straw that stirs the drink at the 45 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 1: end of the day when he's not on, I mean, yeah, 46 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 1: you know you're gonna have you're gonna run into some issues. 47 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,679 Speaker 1: So I think once he gets himself right, I think 48 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,239 Speaker 1: things are gonna change for the better runners in scoring position, 49 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: they were over twelve today. In the series, they were 50 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: six for forty one. That is a one forty six average. 51 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,959 Speaker 1: So yeah, things need to change. But again, it felt 52 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,920 Speaker 1: like all series they were putting themselves in those positions 53 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 1: to drive in runs. You know, it felt like, you know, 54 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 1: a guy gets on Steel's second, you know, guy gets 55 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: a lead off base hit, you gets a double or 56 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 1: whatever it may be. You had a lot of opportunities 57 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: there this series and you're just waiting for that big 58 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: hit to come through. And I think it will eventually, 59 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: especially when Raffi starts getting himself right. But Raffi off 60 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: to a historically bad start. I didn't even realize he 61 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: set a record yesterday. I didn't see that that record 62 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: stat line with strikeouts through the first three games or 63 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: however many abs he had, or the first twelve at bats, 64 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 1: what was it, ten strikeouts to the first twelve at bats? 65 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 1: I didn't realize that was a record, So unfortunately he's 66 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 1: got to live with that. But over sixteen to start 67 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:21,639 Speaker 1: the year with twelve strikeouts historically that you know, I'm 68 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 1: wondering if tomorrow he might need a day off. You know, 69 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 1: I did say yesterday, Yes, he missed a lot of 70 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 1: time in spring training. He's gonna need those abs. But 71 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: I wonder if maybe tomorrow is a bit of a 72 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 1: mental break, you know, just to kind of get him 73 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: away a little bit, maybe spend a little time in 74 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: the cage tomorrow when they go to Baltimore and you know, 75 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: kind of clear his head a little bit. I think 76 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 1: that could be something you do maybe to get some 77 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 1: other guys in the lineup there. But Raffie hopefully he 78 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 1: guess that's going soon and I think he will. Richard Fitz, 79 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: you know, hey, I think it was a good day 80 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: for him in the end. He really limited the damage. 81 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: You know, he ran into a tough second inning there, 82 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: you know, had the bases loaded, and he got out 83 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 1: of it, you know, with only one run scored on 84 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 1: the sack fly. So this is a learning experience kind 85 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: of a start for Richard Fitz. I know he had 86 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: the cup of coffee last year, but you know, you 87 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 1: really had nothing that you were playing for at that time. 88 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 1: You know, he was just kind of he was getting 89 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 1: a taste, you know, getting that cup of coffee, and 90 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:22,599 Speaker 1: you know, this is the big time here, right the 91 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: Red Sox a lot of expectations this year, and I 92 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 1: felt like, you know, there were a couple of things 93 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 1: that you know, positive and negative, but you could turn 94 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,279 Speaker 1: that negative into a positive where yeah, he had to 95 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: eat a couple of back to back homers there, you know, 96 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,599 Speaker 1: with a Langford and Adolis Garcia. You know, it is 97 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 1: what it is. But uh, I think that's something where 98 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:46,720 Speaker 1: you know, let's get those let's get those bumps out 99 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 1: of the way first, and then because hey, you can 100 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 1: end up having what twenty nine thirty more starts for 101 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 1: the rest of the year. But in the end, when 102 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 1: you walk away with the line that he did, I 103 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:58,720 Speaker 1: think you should feel pretty proud of yourself. So I 104 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 1: think it was a good day for Richard fit and uh, listen, 105 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: it's about time. I think it's it's already a day 106 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 1: light here. Give Christian Campbell the extension. What I don't 107 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: know what else you need to see at this point, 108 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,839 Speaker 1: maybe I'm maybe I'm overreacting, maybe I'm reaching, maybe this 109 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 1: is uh, maybe I'm getting a little too ahead of myself. 110 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 1: But I mean, listen, he's six or fourteen to start 111 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 1: off the year. He's got a home or a couple 112 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: of doubles, he's driven in a run. You know, he's 113 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:29,039 Speaker 1: showing you the speed scoring from first base today, had 114 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:33,359 Speaker 1: the unbelievable diving effort. Unfortunately he couldn't come up with 115 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 1: the ball in yesterday's game. I mean, I don't know, man, 116 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,119 Speaker 1: I see a bigger Mookie Bets. I've said that many 117 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: times in the past. I just see it. It's kind 118 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,280 Speaker 1: of the eye test. And the Red Sox have obviously 119 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 1: been so high on him for a while now, you know, 120 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 1: going back months, obviously having the great year last year 121 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,239 Speaker 1: that he basically was the front runner for the second 122 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:02,839 Speaker 1: base job at a going into spring training. They're very 123 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,160 Speaker 1: high on them in the Red Sox. They have a 124 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 1: good history of recognizing top talent when it comes to 125 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,040 Speaker 1: the position player side of things. I mean, look at 126 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 1: all the guys they've developed, the homegrown talent when it 127 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 1: comes to the position player side of things. Dustin Macdroia, 128 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 1: you know, Jacoby Ellsburg. Just to name a couple. To me, 129 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 1: when they're high on a guy, they they do better 130 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: more often than not. I say, get the extension done. 131 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 1: We had the report last night that things were getting close, 132 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:38,160 Speaker 1: and even Christian Campbell acknowledged it himself. I say something, 133 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: you know, seven years, maybe around one hundred million dollar range. 134 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: I think that makes a lot of sense. I say, 135 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 1: get that done. You know, get a couple of those 136 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:50,480 Speaker 1: free agent years. I would get that done. Maybe try 137 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 1: and get a club option in there. If you can 138 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,280 Speaker 1: try and keep this guy locked in for the long haul, 139 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 1: you know, try and get at least a try and 140 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 1: get few at least two years, maybe a third with 141 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:05,679 Speaker 1: an option. And I think that in itself could really 142 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 1: make up for the whole Mookie Bets thing, because again 143 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 1: I see Mookie Bets in Christian Campbell. The guy can hit, 144 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 1: He's got athleticism. There's just something about him. Man. I 145 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: hate to you. You know, everyone uses the word aura, 146 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: but he just has that it factor about him. But 147 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: get that done. But everybody, we're gonna get started with 148 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 1: the post game here. We're gonna go to the pitching breakdown. 149 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: We'll go inning by inning when it comes to the offense. 150 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: If you can hit that like button for me, subscribe, 151 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 1: if you're new with to hear us, if you're here 152 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 1: with us live on YouTube, and if you're here with 153 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 1: us in audio format, please leave us a five star review. 154 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 1: It really does help. It helps, It goes a long 155 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: way and when it comes to popping up in the algorithm. 156 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 1: But everybody, and also we're gonna be looking at reactions 157 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 1: to this series. I came up with an idea after 158 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 1: every series, I'm gonna post something on Twitter and I'm 159 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 1: gonna ask for reactions and then we'll read them live 160 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 1: and that'll be a fun part I think of every 161 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 1: end of the series. So we'll get that going there 162 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 1: tonight too. But everybody, before I get going, I have 163 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: to make you aware of tonight's sponsor, True Classic.

I got a lot of their shirts. 196 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 1: But everybody, let's get to mister Richard Fits and unfortunately, 197 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 1: I don't know why he is not popping up here 198 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: when it comes or his stat line is not popping 199 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: up here. Well, we had six innings pitched, we had 200 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:04,079 Speaker 1: six hits, we had three earned runs and four k's 201 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 1: for Fits and uh, you know, bullpen came in and 202 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 1: you had Slayton and Justin Wilson come in for a 203 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,319 Speaker 1: couple of innings as well, and hey, the bullpen has 204 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,680 Speaker 1: looked very good to start off the year. If you're 205 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: looking for one positive, I mean the bullpen has been 206 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 1: absolutely amazing. 207 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:21,320 Speaker 3: You know. 208 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 1: Justin Slayton, man, I really do think there's a chance 209 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 1: he could end up being the closer at some point 210 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 1: this year. Let me get these, uh these lines in 211 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 1: really quick. Apologies everybody, two innings pitched and zero earned runs. Again, 212 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: I don't know why that didn't come up at the 213 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 1: beginning here. But let's talk about Richard fitz right, six innings, 214 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 1: six hits, three earned four k's on the day. Let's 215 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 1: head over to stat cast and take a look here 216 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 1: at the breakdown. He was, you know, just like Bueller yesterday, 217 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 1: throwing a lot of different pitches. Had six different pitches today, 218 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 1: had the sweeper, had the slider, four seemer, curve ball, sinker, 219 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 1: and the change up leading away with the sweeper, slider 220 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 1: and the freest seamer. You know, when it came to 221 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,679 Speaker 1: a couple of the decisions of the pictures on the 222 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 1: home run balls from Langford and Adolies Garcia, I thought 223 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 1: that was really interesting, right because when it came to 224 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:22,719 Speaker 1: the Langford home run and first off hat tipped to 225 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,679 Speaker 1: Wyatt Langford. I mean, that guy has so much strength. 226 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: You have to be so careful with that guy because 227 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 1: that guy can just poke one out there Oppo and 228 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,599 Speaker 1: that can just clear the fence just like that. The 229 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 1: dude's strength is off the shards. He was an absolute 230 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 1: monster at the University of Floridas. He had to be 231 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 1: very careful with him, but he went with the fastball. 232 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: He got ahead of him, He got ahead of him 233 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: oh two, using the sweeper and the slider. I figured, man, 234 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 1: you know, let's stick to that, you know, because the fastball, 235 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: you know, he was getting hit a little bit early on. 236 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 1: So I was kind of surprised. He just wasn't sticking 237 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 1: to what worked, but maybe he thought, well, you know, 238 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 1: maybe he was. You know, it's kind of a bit 239 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 1: of a game of chess in a little bit. Maybe 240 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 1: Fits was thinking Langford was going to be looking for, 241 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 1: you know, for you know, a sweeper or slider, and 242 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,599 Speaker 1: so he just went to the fastball. I would have 243 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 1: stuck to what was working at that point, but it 244 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:18,840 Speaker 1: is what it is, you know. Again Langford, you know, 245 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: he just poked it out there and it just just 246 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 1: went over. But Adoley's Garcia. It was pretty interesting how 247 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: that ended up being the complete opposite because he got 248 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 1: ahead of Adoley's Garcia with the sweeper and the slider, 249 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: and then he stuck with the sweeper, just like I 250 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 1: was saying, I felt like that's what he should have 251 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 1: done with why Langford, But he just hung it right 252 00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 1: over the play and then Adoli's Garcia just hit a bomb. So, 253 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 1: you know, again, these are just little growing pains that 254 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 1: I think are going to go a long way with 255 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 1: Fits over the course of the season. You know, Vlo's 256 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:50,719 Speaker 1: looking good. Stuff is looking good, you know, Yeah, a 257 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 1: couple of hangers, you know, in the end, you know, 258 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 1: he ran in some trouble there in the second. But 259 00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 1: I think just overall, it was a good start for 260 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 1: Richard Fitz. You know, quality start, six innings, three earned. 261 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 1: I think it was a good day. Right, had some 262 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 1: growing pains along the way, but that's okay, that's going 263 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,439 Speaker 1: to happen. But let's take a look here at the offense. 264 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: Inning by inning. My player of the game is will 265 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 1: you or bray you? I'd have to go. I mean, 266 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: I don't know. It's a toss up between will you 267 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 1: or bray you Christian Campbell for Player of the Series. 268 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 1: I mean, honestly, can they share the award? I mean, 269 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 1: I'm in my goodness. I mean, I think you could 270 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 1: lean to a brek You had the game winning home 271 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 1: run in Game one, and the guy was just an 272 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:33,959 Speaker 1: absolute monster in this series. But going inning by inning here, right, 273 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: you know, I liked the aggressiveness In the first inning, 274 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,719 Speaker 1: you had Dran Devers, Bragg been making contact, but you 275 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: had nothing going on. But then the second inning, Christian 276 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,319 Speaker 1: Campbell second double of the year, a bray You're getting 277 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 1: on base with the walk, but then you had Wong 278 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,840 Speaker 1: pop out. Hamilton did have a sharp line out there, 279 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 1: just not able to get anything going again. It's the 280 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,600 Speaker 1: runners in scoring position problem and then the bottom of 281 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,320 Speaker 1: the second right Fits, you know, just running into trouble there. 282 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 1: But I loved and this is gonna go a long 283 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 1: way too, and helping him build that confidence is that 284 00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: he was able to get out of that jam. You 285 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 1: had a basis load and no ales and the fact 286 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 1: that you were able to limit that to one run. 287 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 1: I think that's huge. I think that goes a long 288 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 1: way for fits. You know, this is this is a 289 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,080 Speaker 1: guy that's gonna battle, you know, even though he's in 290 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 1: a hole. I'm a big fan of Richard Fitz. I 291 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 1: don't know what it is. I just watched the guy 292 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 1: and I just listened to him talk like in you know, 293 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,720 Speaker 1: pregame interviews and whatnot. He just seems like a dude. 294 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 1: You know, he's just gonna go out there and just 295 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 1: play some baseball. You know, I don't know what it is. 296 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 1: He gives me a good vibe. But you saw today 297 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 1: the guy is gonna go out there and he's gonna 298 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 1: get into the nitty gritty. But you had Berger. He 299 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 1: got on first there after it deflected off of fits 300 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 1: Higasha Joka had the bass hit. Ta Varius had the 301 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 1: base hit to Lord of the Basin. But then you 302 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: got to vernail Us a big strikeout there. You had 303 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 1: Duran get the sack fly and also you know, Jaron 304 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 1: Duran making a good play. Marcus Semon getting the ground 305 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: out too. Again, Hey, great job getting out of that 306 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 1: in the end. Would have been great, if you know, 307 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 1: if you could have you know, not getting into that 308 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 1: jam in the first place. Also, i'd have my goodness, 309 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 1: we are having some trouble with the software today. I 310 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 1: don't know why the score did not update. I I 311 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: did all of this, everybody. It was not four to three. 312 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 1: It was three to two. Here we go. That's fixed. 313 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 1: But a third inning, Rafaela getting the base hit, stealing second. 314 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 1: Once again, the Red Sox putting themselves in a good position, 315 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 1: but you couldn't get anything going. Bryan at the strikeout, 316 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: Raffi with the ground out. Hey, it didn't strike out, 317 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 1: so that's pretty nice. But then Bregman with the strikeout. 318 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 1: Bregman kind of a little bit of a weird series 319 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 1: because there were a couple of big spots for him 320 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 1: and he just wasn't able to come through. But you know, 321 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 1: he was getting hits along the way. Hopefully Bregman can 322 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 1: start coming up big in those big spots. Fourth inning 323 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 1: of Brady with the walk, stealing second, once again putting 324 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 1: yourself into a good position, but once again nothing after 325 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 1: Wong with the strikeout. I actually do wonder if we're 326 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 1: gonna start to see along the way, if we're gonna 327 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 1: start to see Carlos Nevias get a bit more action. Now, 328 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 1: Wong did have a hard hit ball today, but I 329 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 1: love the defense of Carlos Nevias, and I would like 330 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,800 Speaker 1: to see what he could do with the bat. He's 331 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: been more praised on the defensive side of things, but 332 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 1: i'd like to you know, had a base hit yesterday, 333 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 1: you know, driving in a run, Carlos Nevias, Man, I 334 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 1: think there could be something there. And uh, Connor Wong. 335 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 1: I am expecting some regression for this coming year. You know, 336 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 1: it had a very high batting average balls in play 337 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 1: last year, So I wonder if they do end up 338 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 1: going that route at some point. Just something to be 339 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 1: aware of. Fifth inning, RAFFI strikeout, nothing else going sixth inning. 340 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 1: This is when the Red Sox walk up a little bit. 341 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 1: You busted out two runs, Cassas with the walk there, 342 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,880 Speaker 1: Christian Campbell had the ground out, had to force out 343 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 1: with Cassas out at second, but then a Bray coming 344 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: through again with the double k C. This is the 345 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 1: athleticism that I was talking about. Scoring from first the guy, 346 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,199 Speaker 1: I mean, if you take a look here, I actually 347 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:13,440 Speaker 1: pulled up his stack cast page and taking a look, 348 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:17,160 Speaker 1: he actually ranks. I know it's very early in the season, 349 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:20,879 Speaker 1: but he is ranking very well when it comes to 350 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,880 Speaker 1: the sprint speed. He's in the ninety second percentile right 351 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:26,680 Speaker 1: now when it comes to the sprint speed. So something 352 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:30,640 Speaker 1: to be aware of moving forward. The guy, he can move, man, 353 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 1: he can move. Like I said, a bigger Mookie Bets. 354 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 1: But sixth inning right, scoring all the way from first 355 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 1: a long I just mentioned. He had a hard hit 356 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 1: ball hit you know, hit the third. Luckily you got 357 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:46,480 Speaker 1: the throwing error from Ezekiel Durant. A Bray was able 358 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,880 Speaker 1: to score there. And then but the bottom of the six, 359 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:50,879 Speaker 1: like I said, Richard Fitz giving up the back to 360 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,919 Speaker 1: back home runs Langford, you know kind of a he 361 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 1: poked it out there, but I'll give more credit to 362 00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,679 Speaker 1: Langford on that. And then Aduley's Garcia just with a 363 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 1: massive bomb doing the bat flip. He knew it was 364 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:04,399 Speaker 1: gone and Doley's Garcia seems to be off to a 365 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 1: very good start this year, had a bad year last year, 366 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 1: but he was very good a couple of years ago. 367 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 1: Seventh thitting nothing going for both sides, eighth fitting bregmant 368 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: base hit, steal second. Once again, I feel like I've 369 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 1: said this how many times now in this in this screen, 370 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:24,399 Speaker 1: getting off to a good start and not able to 371 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:28,360 Speaker 1: come away with anything. But I love how many times 372 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,639 Speaker 1: the Red Sox in this series got on base, whether 373 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:33,239 Speaker 1: that was a walk or a hit, and then they 374 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 1: steal second. I love the aggressiveness there. That's such an 375 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:40,200 Speaker 1: Alex Corra kind of a play. Love that you're putting 376 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,680 Speaker 1: yourselves in good positions. It's only a matter of time 377 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,919 Speaker 1: before it's gonna happen, right before more big things are 378 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,120 Speaker 1: gonna happen there. Cass had the ground out, Bregman got 379 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 1: to third case. Unfortunately, listen, he can't carry the team 380 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 1: the entire time. I mean, I know he's off to 381 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:57,400 Speaker 1: a great start, but unfortunately had the strikeout, A bray 382 00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:00,639 Speaker 1: you getting the intentional walk. I mean it will Barry 383 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,920 Speaker 1: Bonds of Bray. You getting the intentional walk treatment very 384 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,639 Speaker 1: smart from the Texas Rangers. I mean, look, this is 385 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 1: what teams should be doing. If you're getting the crap 386 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 1: kicked out of you in a series from one guy, 387 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 1: don't even go up against him. You know how many 388 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:19,199 Speaker 1: times have we even seen in the past where he 389 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:22,119 Speaker 1: saw the bases loaded? Intentional walk? Who was it a 390 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 1: couple of years ago? I think Joe Madden did it 391 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:26,679 Speaker 1: with U was it with Corey Seeger? Was that what 392 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 1: it was? They ended up paying off. Remember that everyone 393 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,479 Speaker 1: was kind of joking about the move, and then because 394 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 1: the intentional walk, it scored a run, so everyone was like, 395 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,359 Speaker 1: what what are you doing? It ended up leading to 396 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 1: a win. And they did the same thing with Barry 397 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 1: Bonds years back and then ended up being kind of 398 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:45,360 Speaker 1: a smart play because it led to a win. I'm 399 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 1: not saying that happened here. I'm just you know, again, 400 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:52,160 Speaker 1: smart move from Bruce Bochee to do the intentional walk, 401 00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 1: I mean, why face him? But then Connor Wong with 402 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 1: a strikeout again Carlos Nevas. I'm not gonna say right now, 403 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 1: it's way too early. Connor Wahng he's going to be 404 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 1: the guy. But again, give it a month or two, 405 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:05,639 Speaker 1: and I wonder if you start to see the playing 406 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,440 Speaker 1: time from Carlos Nevaia start to pick up a little bit. 407 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 1: Ninth inning, you know, it got pretty exciting there. Hamilton 408 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:13,640 Speaker 1: had to pop out Rafa all over the ground down, 409 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:17,120 Speaker 1: but then Jared de ram with the clutch double there. Raffi, Hey, 410 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,119 Speaker 1: you know, it's been a tough start for Raffi Devers 411 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 1: here in the first series, but hey, clutch walked there 412 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 1: at a big spot. You know, everyone was kind of 413 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:26,400 Speaker 1: hanging on the edge of their seat, but he drew 414 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,359 Speaker 1: the clutch walk. He had story Pinks run there. I 415 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:33,359 Speaker 1: loved when Raffi went back to the dugout. He's, you know, 416 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 1: getting all the high fives. Man, At this point, you 417 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: got to take wins where you can. You know. Again, 418 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 1: historically bad start for Raffi, but I think, uh, he'll 419 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 1: be fine eventually. But then Bregman striking out to end 420 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,679 Speaker 1: the game. You know, but in the end, you know, 421 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:51,359 Speaker 1: it is what it is. I think there was a 422 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: lot of good things to take away from this series. 423 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,439 Speaker 1: You were in pretty much every single game, Bullpen was 424 00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:00,719 Speaker 1: looking good, and you know, actually I pulled up. You know, 425 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 1: I know it's very early, it's not very long into 426 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 1: the season, but we got another stat here. You know, 427 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 1: this is kind of refreshing looking at the Red Sox 428 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:15,439 Speaker 1: when it comes to the defensive rankings on Fangrafts thirteenth overall. Listen, 429 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 1: it's not number one, but I mean, come on, they've 430 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 1: been at the bottom of the barrel for how many 431 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:25,359 Speaker 1: years now, and it's pretty nice to see them at thirteenth. Again, 432 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 1: very early, small sample size, but you know, so I 433 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 1: am noticing the better defense overall. The bullpen has been great. 434 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 1: They've been locking it down. You've been seeing some positives 435 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:39,439 Speaker 1: out of the starting pitching. Again. I've been saying this 436 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 1: right with Crochet, you know, Bueller, you know Richard fitz today. 437 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 1: You know, there's been a couple of things, you know, 438 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,920 Speaker 1: Tanner Hawck as well. You know, it feels like maybe 439 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 1: they're gonna need another couple of turns in the rotation, 440 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:57,439 Speaker 1: you know, get worked up a little bit more. I 441 00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,879 Speaker 1: did see a lot of positives from the Red Sox 442 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 1: starting pitching in this series. You know, they didn't really 443 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 1: you know, give up any massive innings behind each you know, 444 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 1: any means, sure, give up a couple of key long balls, 445 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:13,120 Speaker 1: But overall, I think the starting pitching looked pretty good. 446 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 1: If the offense was scoring more runs, then you know 447 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 1: we'd be saying, oh wow, starting pitching looking great, right, 448 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 1: but the offense just hasn't been able to pick it up. 449 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 1: I do wonder if maybe we start to see maybe 450 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 1: I don't know, you don't wanna you don't want to overreact. 451 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:35,920 Speaker 1: You know, I don't see Korra overreacting, you know. Going 452 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,679 Speaker 1: to Baltimore, I mean, my goodness, I mean, how did 453 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 1: Baltimore do today? I mean, they've been scoring a ton 454 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:43,920 Speaker 1: of run so actually the Blue Jays picked up to 455 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:47,440 Speaker 1: win today three to one. But Baltimore they scored nine 456 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 1: runs yesterday. Oh okay, so they ended up splitting the series. 457 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 1: So yeah, the Oriols blew them out an opening day 458 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 1: and the Blue Jays answered the call on Friday. Orioles 459 00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 1: scored nine on Saturday, and the Blue Jays they got 460 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 1: some good pitching from Bass today, so they ended up 461 00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:04,640 Speaker 1: splitting the series. But when it comes to the Orioles, man, 462 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 1: I mean, hey, this team's full of boppers. Katee Povic 463 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 1: going for the Orioles. You know, this is a guy. 464 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,159 Speaker 1: Last year he came up for a cup of coffee. 465 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 1: You know, he was getting hit a little bit, had 466 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 1: sixteen starts sharing the screen, had sixteen starts. He went 467 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 1: three to nine with a five point two zero el ray. 468 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 1: Let me actually go over here. Let me take a 469 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 1: look at the FIP here, Kate Povic fip was still 470 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: a little high at four point seventy nine. But you know, 471 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 1: last year in the minor leagues he was doing pretty well. 472 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 1: Had over ten strikeouts for nine at triple A, a 473 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: three point four to eight e alray overall. You know, 474 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 1: so this is a guy that could be like a 475 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 1: back end, middle of the rotation kind of a guy. 476 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 1: He's got some decent stuff. But it'll be interesting to 477 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 1: see the way the Red Sox go after him in 478 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 1: the first start. But then he got Sean Newcomb, you know, 479 00:23:57,040 --> 00:24:00,399 Speaker 1: Sean newcom local guy had himself a pretty good spring. 480 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,119 Speaker 1: Let's see. Let's see, not really a whole lot of 481 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:07,680 Speaker 1: experience from either side here. You've got a few abs 482 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 1: against Newcome on the Orioles side of things, you know, 483 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:14,200 Speaker 1: Tyler O'Neil's got a couple of abs, but nothing really there. 484 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 1: But the Red Sox they saw a lot out of 485 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:20,440 Speaker 1: Povic last year, and there are quite a few guys 486 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,719 Speaker 1: here had success. Ref Snyder, hopefully he's good to go. 487 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:26,920 Speaker 1: I think he had an illness this past weekend. Will 488 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 1: he play, I'm not so sure. I haven't heard the 489 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:33,919 Speaker 1: update on that, but ref Snyder has had success against him, 490 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 1: has a home run in five abs with a couple 491 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 1: of RBIs. You got Casas, I mean, could just be 492 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,680 Speaker 1: the wake up game for Christian for Christian, for Tristan. 493 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 1: Cassis has over a thirteen hundred ops in a three 494 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 1: abs against him. So you got Rafaela, He's had four 495 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:56,160 Speaker 1: abs against him, you know. But so the Red Sox 496 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,479 Speaker 1: they did see him a little bit last year. So 497 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: hopefully this could be a game for the Red Sox 498 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 1: to bounce back after a one to three start and 499 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 1: if there's ever a time to really get the bats going. 500 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 1: I guess a young guy like Povic who had some 501 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 1: issues last year. So we'll see, we'll see what ends 502 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,439 Speaker 1: up happening. But I guess I saw someone in the 503 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 1: chat saying that Devers that Corus said Devers is going 504 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 1: to be playing for tomorrow again. I've been worrying about 505 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 1: getting ready for the postgame here, so I haven't seen 506 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 1: anything else going on. So but I think someone in 507 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,640 Speaker 1: the chat did say that Rafi will be playing tomorrow. 508 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,720 Speaker 1: I think someone said Kassas is going to be taking 509 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 1: a day tomorrow. I think I saw that as well. 510 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 1: But uh yeah, interested to see the lineup for tomorrow. 511 00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:47,119 Speaker 1: But you know, main takeaway here, I just think the 512 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,440 Speaker 1: offense is going to be fine. If runners in scoring 513 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:55,640 Speaker 1: position is the problem right now, then but you're setting 514 00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 1: the table. If you're not setting the table, well then 515 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 1: that's where I'm gonna start having some issues, right That's 516 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 1: where I'm gonna get a little bit worried. But they're 517 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 1: getting the table set. You just gotta eat, you know, 518 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:08,680 Speaker 1: and everyone knows how to eat at the end of 519 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:11,120 Speaker 1: the day. Well, I think most everyone knows how to eat. 520 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,119 Speaker 1: So hopefully they get that going and they will and 521 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 1: I think Raffi will bust out of this. We will see, 522 00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 1: but hey, I guess he is gonna be playing tomorrow, 523 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:24,879 Speaker 1: so we will see. Now moving on here, we're gonna 524 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 1: go to a different actually you know what, really quick, 525 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 1: before I do go to the viewer reactions, let's actually 526 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:34,880 Speaker 1: just do a quick preview of the whole series. I'm 527 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 1: not gonna go crazy on this, but just showing you 528 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 1: the pitching matchups we've got Garrett Crochet Zach Efflin. So 529 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 1: Tuesday is gonna be a day off. So that's where 530 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,920 Speaker 1: I was wondering if Devers could get a day off 531 00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:49,680 Speaker 1: tomorrow kind of a because it would give him a 532 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,160 Speaker 1: couple of days to get a bit of a break, 533 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:55,080 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But again, you want to 534 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 1: I also see the side where you want to get 535 00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,159 Speaker 1: those abs and then if you're gonna have the day 536 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 1: off on Tuesday anyway, so I could see that. But 537 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 1: that should be a fun pitching match up on Wednesday, 538 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:08,680 Speaker 1: Garrett Crochet Zach Efflin, and they're gonna have Tanner Hawck 539 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 1: against Charlie Morton and then uh and then you got 540 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 1: the home opener on Friday, So that's gonna be fun. 541 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 1: That's gonna be fun. I can't wait for that post 542 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:21,120 Speaker 1: game home opener. Man, always a lot of energy there. 543 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 1: But uh, here we go, everybody, let's go to let's 544 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 1: go to the Twitter reactions. So after every series, this 545 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 1: is what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna say, you know, hey, 546 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 1: tell me your reactions, you know, tell me what you're thinking, 547 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:39,679 Speaker 1: and we're gonna go through them. We actually got a 548 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 1: lot of comments here, We got a lot of comments here. 549 00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:46,160 Speaker 1: My goodness, I'm gonna go through. I'm not gonna I'm 550 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 1: not gonna go through everyone. You know, some of the 551 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,440 Speaker 1: you know, you got some trolls out there. They like 552 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 1: to post some stuff, and I gotta be you gotta 553 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 1: be careful, gotta be careful. Uh. What do we got here? 554 00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: Boston common sense? Boston common sense here. Uh, frustrating, but early, 555 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 1: some good signs. The Devers' nightmare changed the whole series. 556 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 1: One or two key hits and it's a split for sure. 557 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:14,119 Speaker 1: The Roman Anthony talk definitely going to fire up two 558 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: home runs for the kid. Yes, Roman Anthony hit an 559 00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 1: absolute tank today. Uh, it's nice to see that he is. Uh, 560 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 1: he is doing well in Worcester. We will see him eventually. 561 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 1: But yeah, you know, if Devers was hitting in this series, 562 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I think you're looking at a completely different series, 563 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, you you're you probably you possibly 564 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 1: are winning three out of four, just like the Rangers did. 565 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 1: It felt like Raffi was the difference in this series. 566 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 1: I think you'd say Bregman a little bit in a 567 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 1: couple of those big spots. But it is what it is. 568 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 1: Let's go to another one. Let's go to another one. 569 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:58,959 Speaker 1: What else we got? Uh? Here we go? All right, 570 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 1: we got Tanner, Tanner with a long one. Here we go. 571 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 1: Let's see. Let's see what we got here and what 572 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 1: many think will be an ALCS matchup, It's not crazy 573 00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:08,240 Speaker 1: to see them drop the series. It's a new roster 574 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,800 Speaker 1: in a lot of ways. Devers needs to transition to 575 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,719 Speaker 1: the DH roll and Cassas is just back from an 576 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 1: injured riddled season. Yeah, good points there, you know sure. 577 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 1: I think that's a good point. With Raffi, it is 578 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 1: a new role. At the end of the day, it's 579 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 1: a new routine that he's gonna have to get used to. 580 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,479 Speaker 1: I think that could be playing into it a little bit. 581 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:28,959 Speaker 1: I think more so it's he didn't see a lot 582 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 1: of time in spring training. You know, he's trying to 583 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 1: work his way back in games that count. So I 584 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,880 Speaker 1: think that, you know, mix in the new role. I 585 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 1: think they could be something too. Cassas and that's another 586 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:44,640 Speaker 1: thing as well, I missed a lot of time last year, right, 587 00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 1: did look pretty decent after coming back. I will say this. 588 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:51,200 Speaker 1: I will say this, Tristan Cassis, are we gonna stick 589 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 1: with the high socks? Did anyone notice that Tristan Casas 590 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 1: rocking the high socks in the first series? Are we 591 00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:00,959 Speaker 1: gonna get back to the low the low socks? Christing 592 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 1: Cossa is eventually. I don't know. I feel like I 593 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 1: like the low socks Tristan Costas. That's just me. But 594 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 1: he's saying here. The new guys in Bregman and Crochet 595 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 1: looked great. Five through nine hitters did their job. That 596 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 1: was another thing. Bottom of the lineup. That's another good 597 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 1: sign as well. These guys were producing at the bottom 598 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 1: of the order. I love that. Will Youer, who I 599 00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 1: think you could say has been the best player so far. 600 00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 1: I love that he's doing all this damage at the 601 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 1: bottom of the order. Love that people will overreact and 602 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 1: say it's over already. But they played one sixty two 603 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 1: for a reason. Reset heading to Baltimore with an open mind. 604 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 1: You only lost by one run and two of the 605 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 1: games against a stellar offense. Yes, and I was saying this, 606 00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:42,480 Speaker 1: the Rangers are a good team. It's not like you 607 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:45,320 Speaker 1: know you're dropping a you know, three out of four 608 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 1: to the White Sox. Here the Rangers are considered by 609 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 1: many to be the top team in the American League. 610 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 1: They wore my pick to get to the World Series 611 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 1: out of the American League this year. This is a 612 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 1: very good team, very good team. Moving on here, here 613 00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 1: we go. Bradley grinned. Bradley grinned. If all we are 614 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 1: doing is waiting for the offense to wake up, it's 615 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 1: going to be a really good season. I completely agree. 616 00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 1: I agree. I mean again, it's if all you're doing 617 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 1: is just figuring out how to eat well, then that's 618 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 1: a good problem to have. The table is set, He's 619 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:26,320 Speaker 1: got to put the food in your mouth. I'm just saying, 620 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:36,600 Speaker 1: thank you, Bradley, what else we got? What have we 621 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:41,680 Speaker 1: got here? John bomb Stark, what do we got? Lost? 622 00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: Twice by one run to a good team. Not the 623 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 1: end of the world. A couple of guys slumping will 624 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:50,280 Speaker 1: happen when it comes to RAFFI. I wish Ac would 625 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 1: be a little bit more flexible about sliding him down 626 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 1: or pink hitting for him when he looks this lost 627 00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:58,880 Speaker 1: unpopular take. Who I love an unpopular take, But I 628 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 1: like my manager to make this say, that will improve 629 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:03,520 Speaker 1: our chances of winning until Raffie fixes his stance and 630 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 1: swing path having him hit number two in the order, 631 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,240 Speaker 1: ain't that? I mean, listen, you know you're not wrong here. 632 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 1: You know. Could you maybe see another guy batting second tomorrow? 633 00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:18,160 Speaker 1: I mean listen, maybe bat will your bray you second? 634 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:21,959 Speaker 1: You know, do you put do you get really aggressive 635 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:25,520 Speaker 1: and put the kid Christian Campbell in the number two spot? 636 00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 1: But if you want to stick with the lefty in 637 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:30,280 Speaker 1: the two spot, why not go with the bray you 638 00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 1: in the two spot right now? I don't know. Might 639 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 1: be hot, but then again, it comes down to at 640 00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 1: the end of the day. At the end of the day, 641 00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: they are human beings, right, and that is something you 642 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,200 Speaker 1: also have to manage. It's not just managing players, it's 643 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 1: also managing human beings. So I do wonder if Cora 644 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 1: is taking that into account. Maybe he doesn't want to 645 00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 1: get him even more out of his routine, you know, 646 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 1: getting more into his head, you know what I mean. 647 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 1: So that's why I feel like he ends up staying there. 648 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:07,360 Speaker 1: But if you were to make a move and put 649 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:11,480 Speaker 1: someone else in the two spot, right I know it's early, 650 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 1: so it could be a bit of an overreaction. I mean, listen, 651 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:15,560 Speaker 1: if you wanted to go with the hot bat, go 652 00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:18,400 Speaker 1: with Willi or Bray in the two spot. But then again, 653 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 1: you know, do you really want to go that far 654 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:23,920 Speaker 1: at this point? I'm not so sure about that. But 655 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:27,440 Speaker 1: I love the unpopular take. I'm always a fan of 656 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:30,440 Speaker 1: the unpopular takes. I love going against the grain. That's 657 00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 1: always something I enjoy. Let's do a couple more. What 658 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 1: else we got, Pokey Town no words here, ripping his 659 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 1: hair out of his head. I love it. I love it, perfect, perfect, 660 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 1: you know, I would say for me, it's it's frustrating. 661 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:55,880 Speaker 1: It was a frustrating series, but you also had just 662 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 1: a lot of good takeaways at the same time. If 663 00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:00,440 Speaker 1: this was against the White Sox, then yeah, I'm thinking, 664 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:03,000 Speaker 1: all right, what the heck's going on here? You know, 665 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 1: what are we doing? But uh, you know, I can 666 00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:09,400 Speaker 1: understand the hair pulling. I can understand the hair pulling. 667 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:17,440 Speaker 1: Here we go, Here we go. Yeah, this is a 668 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:22,840 Speaker 1: good point here. I like this one. Here we go. Uh, 669 00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:28,239 Speaker 1: furio giunta. I'd rather they start slow. I'd rather they 670 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:31,040 Speaker 1: start slow hitting than have horrible pitching. Yeah, you know, 671 00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 1: the fact that you've had the good pitching to start 672 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:36,759 Speaker 1: things off. I think that's actually making me feel a 673 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:39,600 Speaker 1: lot more at ease, because, like I've said a million times, 674 00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:41,799 Speaker 1: you know, the bats are gonna get going eventually. These 675 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:44,880 Speaker 1: bats are just too good. They're just too good. But uh, 676 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:48,120 Speaker 1: here we go, maybe get a couple more in here. 677 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:50,239 Speaker 1: Actually had a lot of comments on this one. I 678 00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:54,080 Speaker 1: didn't realize I was gonna get so many people reacting 679 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:57,640 Speaker 1: to this. Here we go. Hit another one here, you know, 680 00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:01,080 Speaker 1: another one from Gary m go at him tomorrow. I'm 681 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:03,400 Speaker 1: sure all the replies will be very thoughtful and measured. 682 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:05,759 Speaker 1: Considering they played four games. I'm not sure if there 683 00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,359 Speaker 1: are sarcasm there all on the road against the World 684 00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:11,080 Speaker 1: Series contender, I think there was some sarcasm there. You're 685 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:14,279 Speaker 1: gonna see some people thinking all this team is just garbage. 686 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:17,480 Speaker 1: There's nothing going with this team this year. But you know, 687 00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:20,279 Speaker 1: just call it it's done now. You're gonna get a 688 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:22,800 Speaker 1: few people like that. You're gonna get the negative nancies. 689 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 1: But uh yeah, from Caesar, Rangers will be good this 690 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:29,919 Speaker 1: year played them well. If the Batter's even played even 691 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:31,759 Speaker 1: slightly better, this series could have been three to one. 692 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,239 Speaker 1: Socks easily. You know, I really thought, you know, they 693 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:36,160 Speaker 1: could have pulled it out there in the end. I 694 00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 1: thought this was gonna be I actually came into the 695 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 1: series thinking it would be a split. But yeah, I 696 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 1: think for the most part, what I'm seeing from most 697 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:50,600 Speaker 1: of the reactions here is uh pretty uh for the 698 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,440 Speaker 1: most part, pretty positive. Not really jumping off a bridge 699 00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:56,479 Speaker 1: as of right now. Oh here we go. Evan Evan 700 00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:59,120 Speaker 1: was agreeing with me. I had, I had Evan agreeing 701 00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:02,759 Speaker 1: with me if I Nenirvas should start over Loong. Loong 702 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,239 Speaker 1: has had two good months in his career, and he's 703 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 1: been a black hole both offensively and defensively. Otherwise, Listen, 704 00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:12,799 Speaker 1: I'm telling you look out for Carlos Devias. I'm not 705 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,359 Speaker 1: gonna say, you know, make him the starting catcher right now, 706 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:18,439 Speaker 1: but I think over time, could you start seeing him 707 00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:21,560 Speaker 1: start you know, let's say a month, let's say Connor 708 00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 1: Wong next month, you know, hitting around that two hundred mark, 709 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:28,960 Speaker 1: right around that Mendoza line, just Carlos Nervas start to 710 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:32,360 Speaker 1: get an extra start per week, maybe a couple extra starts. 711 00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:34,080 Speaker 1: They kind of start shrending that way. 712 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:35,000 Speaker 2: You know. 713 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,600 Speaker 1: It's interesting because there is good defense there too, So 714 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:40,960 Speaker 1: you make a good point, Evan, I'm right there with you, 715 00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:44,360 Speaker 1: my friend. I'm right there with you. But for the 716 00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:47,320 Speaker 1: most part, you know, I think we uh, no one's 717 00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:52,160 Speaker 1: jumping off any bridges at this point. No one is overreacting. 718 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:53,840 Speaker 1: For the most part, you knew you were going up 719 00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:57,040 Speaker 1: against a good Rangers team in the first series. This 720 00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:59,240 Speaker 1: is gonna be a tough team. I actually can't wait 721 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:01,680 Speaker 1: to play them again. I think that's gonna be very fun. 722 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:05,320 Speaker 1: I really do think we saw a possible playoff preview. 723 00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:08,920 Speaker 1: I really do. I think the Rangers. I mean the 724 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,080 Speaker 1: way I look at the Texas Rangers, you just have 725 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:15,440 Speaker 1: a lot of dudes on that team, just good ballplayers, 726 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 1: both on the offensive side on the pitching side. You 727 00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:23,840 Speaker 1: got guys with experience, youth. I really like that Rangers 728 00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:26,280 Speaker 1: team a lot. So you know what, Yeah, we dropped 729 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:29,480 Speaker 1: three out of four. You know, it is what it is. 730 00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:32,719 Speaker 1: We'll get him, We'll get him down the road. I'm 731 00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:36,440 Speaker 1: looking forward to that series. But everyone, I want to 732 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:41,399 Speaker 1: thank you. Joshua Lobchinski is in the chat. How about 733 00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 1: the Yankees happen to see the series? How about those 734 00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:49,399 Speaker 1: Yankees got the torpedo bats. What the heck is going 735 00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:53,560 Speaker 1: on with the torpedo bats? My goodness, oh man, I 736 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:56,279 Speaker 1: think who is the who is that Tyler McGill on 737 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:59,480 Speaker 1: the uh on the Brewers, I think he said, oh, 738 00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 1: the the only reason Major League Baseball is allowing that 739 00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:07,440 Speaker 1: is because they're the Yankees. I don't know, Listen, I've 740 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,560 Speaker 1: made a video about it, and I actually kind of 741 00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:12,160 Speaker 1: like the idea. You know, when it comes to the 742 00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:16,640 Speaker 1: torpedo bats, I think it just adds another It just 743 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:20,120 Speaker 1: I don't know, it just takes it to a next level, right, 744 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:22,880 Speaker 1: And I think these pictures, I say, instead of complaining 745 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 1: about the bats, if the bats are within the rules, 746 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,880 Speaker 1: which they are, you know, if you're looking at measurements 747 00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:30,680 Speaker 1: of the bat and you're looking at the bat rules, 748 00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:33,839 Speaker 1: then yeah, you know, if you're in accordance to those, 749 00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 1: you're not breaking any rules. So instead of just whining 750 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 1: about it, instead of crying about it, how about make 751 00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:43,719 Speaker 1: the adjustments. Instead of you know, trying to get in 752 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:47,359 Speaker 1: on the hands of Anthony Volpi or whoever else has 753 00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:50,320 Speaker 1: the torpedo bat, well, maybe change the way you're pitching 754 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:52,440 Speaker 1: to these guys. I think that makes it more interesting. 755 00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:54,920 Speaker 1: You know, the way pictures are going to have to adjust, 756 00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 1: not to different batters, but now they're going to have 757 00:38:57,239 --> 00:39:02,280 Speaker 1: to adjust the bats makes it interesting. It just takes 758 00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 1: it that much further. Listen, it's a game of inshes. Listen. 759 00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:09,440 Speaker 1: If one little thing like that can make a difference, 760 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:13,439 Speaker 1: then do it. Take advantage of it. You gotta find 761 00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:15,520 Speaker 1: ways to win. And you got the best players in 762 00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 1: the world in Major League Baseball. You gotta find every 763 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 1: advantage you can. And hey, if the Yankees have figured 764 00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:24,040 Speaker 1: the torpedo bat is what takes them to the next 765 00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 1: level to make up for the loss of Juan Soto, 766 00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:29,440 Speaker 1: then hey, it is what it is. And hey, you know, 767 00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:31,400 Speaker 1: if you go take a look at the advanced metrics 768 00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:34,440 Speaker 1: when it comes to Anthony Volpi Cody Bellinger, you are 769 00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:38,920 Speaker 1: seeing some better metrics from last year. So anyway, I'm 770 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:41,080 Speaker 1: gonna end it there. Everybody, thank you so much for 771 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:43,279 Speaker 1: coming out today. I know we had to kind of 772 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:46,280 Speaker 1: end this on a bad note, but we got Baltimore 773 00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:48,200 Speaker 1: coming up for three games. Then you get the home 774 00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:51,560 Speaker 1: opener later this week. Hopefully we can bounce back against 775 00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,359 Speaker 1: the Orioles. Let's try and win that series. And hey, 776 00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:57,239 Speaker 1: this is a division match up here, right, These are 777 00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:01,520 Speaker 1: very important series coming up. You know, Baltimore is gonna 778 00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:03,000 Speaker 1: be a team that they're gonna be right there in 779 00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:06,200 Speaker 1: the end. They got a good lineup. Who knows about 780 00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 1: the pitching, Not so sure about that, but you know 781 00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:11,319 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a dog fight all the way until 782 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:16,280 Speaker 1: the end of the year. Baltimore is. Yes, sure, maybe 783 00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 1: we're down a little bit about losing to the Rangers, 784 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 1: but I'd say let's pick up the intensity against the 785 00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:23,840 Speaker 1: Orioles because these division matchups they're gonna mean a lot 786 00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:28,520 Speaker 1: in September. So everybody, I'm gonna end it right there. 787 00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:31,719 Speaker 1: Go have yourself a great day. Or what time is it. 788 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:34,360 Speaker 1: It's not even six o'clock.

Okay, 794 00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:52,600 Speaker 1: so the Red Sox they're gonna have to make a 795 00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:56,360 Speaker 1: quick turnaround. The game's at two thirty five tomorrow, so 796 00:40:56,400 --> 00:41:00,279 Speaker 1: we'll be here pretty early again tomorrow, So everybody, we'll 797 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:03,400 Speaker 1: see you tomorrow.
