Sixty home runs now for cal Rally 192 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 1: sixty And we had the conversation clearly tonight, Hey Aaron, 193 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: Judge decided, all right, I'm here. I'm gonna announce myself 194 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: as ALMVP. Two home runs, fiftieth home run, fourth straight 195 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,560 Speaker 1: year of fifty home runs. I've told you for a 196 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:24,199 Speaker 1: long time cal Raley's the MVP. MVP and Player of 197 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 1: the Year are two different awards. Right, You did say, 198 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 1: hey this guy, because we look Judge across the board. 199 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 1: You look at Judge's numbers. Judges hitting fifty points higher 200 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,959 Speaker 1: than cal Raley is. His war is higher, demonstrably high. 201 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: I mean, cal Rawley's wars pretty really good. It's like 202 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 1: nine to fifty, but Judges like one point one. Rally's 203 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: got more RBIs ten more home runs. You're talking about 204 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 1: splitting hairs between these two guys. This is a really 205 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 1: great year from Aaron Judge Right's great year, you know, 206 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 1: fifty home runs, one hundred and five, fourth fifty home 207 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: run season of his career. Right, great year, Right, awesome year. 208 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,319 Speaker 1: Cal Rawley's the MVP. Barners have won the division. The 209 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,559 Speaker 1: Yankees are tied for the division lead. They had it 210 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,320 Speaker 1: and they lost it. Now they've tied Toronto. But what 211 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:10,679 Speaker 1: Roley has done as a switch hitting catcher, sixty home runs, 212 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,680 Speaker 1: this is stuff that nobody has seen before. And I'm sorry. 213 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 3: When you do something that big that nobody has seen before, 214 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 3: there's no other argument. Like last year, Hey, I can 215 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 3: tell you till you were blue in the face. Francisco 216 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 3: Lindor is the NLMVP. He's done this, he's done this. 217 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 3: You take him away from the Mets, where would they be. 218 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 3: Shoe Heyo Tani, as good as he is, you take 219 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 3: him away from the Dodgers and he's still be a 220 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 3: really good team. Sho Heyo Tani, first fifty to fifty 221 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 3: player in MLB history. Shoeotani is the MVP, and it 222 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 3: should have been and it was going to be unanimous. 223 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 3: Right when you do something that we've never seen before. 224 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 3: That's a big deal. Not one of those made up 225 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 3: stats of you know, the first guy had ten home 226 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 3: runs in month of September in a non election year 227 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 3: in the twenty first century. No, this is we have 228 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 3: never seen a catcher in the history of the game 229 00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 3: have a season like this, especially what you have to 230 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 3: talk about with the with with what you do defensively, 231 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 3: and there's games where he's dhing as well, so I 232 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 3: get it, but this is this is something we have 233 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 3: never seen this before. So yeah, when you talk about 234 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 3: Most Valuable Player and the Mariners winning their division, finally 235 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 3: looked like they may break through and this could be 236 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:16,079 Speaker 3: the year we thought they're gonna have for like ten 237 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,200 Speaker 3: years now. Yeah, cal Rawley's MVP. 238 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,719 Speaker 1: Yeah might have. Also, you know, look look over to that. 239 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 3: I think they needed a graphics guy because it was 240 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 3: in the corner and it said champions. I didn't know 241 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 3: what they were champions of because the font the font 242 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,719 Speaker 3: was bad Smith. But all of it to say that 243 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 3: you've got a guy with a nine to nine to 244 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 3: six fielding percentage right the platinum catcher is to what 245 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 3: he's done, zero pass balls and just been fantastic. Still 246 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 3: thrown out twenty one percent of opposing runners trying to steal. 247 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 3: All of that is on top of the excellence at 248 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 3: the plate, and you have the batting average, it leaves 249 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 3: something to be desired. He may hit two fifty before 250 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,439 Speaker 3: it's all said and done, but one hundred and twenty 251 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 3: five RB you win the division. You might end up 252 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 3: being the number one seed overall by time it's said 253 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:08,479 Speaker 3: and done, and you just look at the overall excellence. 254 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 3: Things you haven't seen before, right your old Jason Stark line. 255 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 3: Every night we see randomness and chaos and baseball, and 256 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 3: tonight the eleventh time this year he's hitting multiple home 257 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 3: runs in a game. Only three other guys have ever 258 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 3: done that, Judge being one of the others. But you 259 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 3: also look at Sosa and Hank Greenberg to add a 260 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,959 Speaker 3: name from the past into the mix. There just a 261 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 3: remarkable consistency switch hitting. The big moment at the All 262 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:42,079 Speaker 3: Star Game, like all of it becomes narrative and an 263 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:45,600 Speaker 3: outlier to your point about Aaron Judge is that this 264 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 3: is the fourth time we've seen him have a fifty 265 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 3: home run season. You go back to his breakthrough back 266 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 3: in twenty seventeen when he came up and all of 267 00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 3: the greatness that we've seen throughout his career. It's another 268 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 3: magnificency and he if you go into advanced metrics, he's 269 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 3: checking a lot of boxes along the way. But for 270 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 3: cal Raley, it's about twenty twenty five. It's about what 271 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 3: this team is doing. Rodriguez homer tonight is thirty second. 272 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 3: He's gonna end up with one hundred RBI on the year. Fantastic. 273 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,320 Speaker 3: Cal Raley's is one of the great stories of Major 274 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 3: League Baseball for the twenty twenty five campaign. No IFFs, 275 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,080 Speaker 3: hands and butts about it. On the other side, Schwarber's had. 276 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 1: A great run. It's great right now. 277 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 3: Implied odds show Hao Tani ninety nine point eight percent. Well, 278 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 3: it helps when you know, after you know, the last 279 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:38,720 Speaker 3: the last three and a half weeks, every game is 280 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 3: here's show Hao Tani five shutout, no hit innings, Dodger 281 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 3: bullpen that shut out no. 282 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 1: Hit innings, again and again and again and again. 283 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 3: What he's done is era as a as a starter 284 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:54,599 Speaker 3: this year, but overall has just been unbelievable. It's just 285 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 3: a matter of staying healthy for him. So all of 286 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 3: that as we watch the the Mariners still so elebrating. 287 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 3: Uh and the Trident. I need one of those triedent 288 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 3: cups by the way that they sell. Oh sure, yeah, yeah, 289 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 3: nice one. That What do you got, Frostburg. Do you 290 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 3: know how many home runs cal Rally's gonna hit on 291 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 3: the Dodger bullpen this weekend? 292 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:17,440 Speaker 1: Oh wow, let's he may have seventy four home runs. Yeah, 293 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 1: he'll set the all time record. By suddenly they're gonna 294 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 1: Benna beat McGuire. They're gonna bat him lead off, just 295 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: so he gets more at what's the what's what's the 296 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 1: cost of a round trips like to Seattle? 297 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 3: Oh? 298 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 1: Well, well, just you know what, TJ. Don't worry about 299 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 1: taking a plane. Just hitch a ride on one of 300 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 1: Rawley's home runs and you'll make it there nicely, don't you. Yeah. 301 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,440 Speaker 3: Because I was debating going out to watch Bears Raiders 302 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 3: up close, and then I saw what the cost was 303 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 3: to get in, Mike, I might as well just go 304 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 3: down the shot. 305 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 1: You hate your eyes that much? 306 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 3: Well, that's a watch, Gino Smith, that's a Caleb Williams 307 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 3: is gonna throw four more touchdowns three hundred yards. 308 00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 1: Come on, man, The Birth of Caleb Williams. 309 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 3: It could be the breakout game for Ashton genty two 310 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:03,240 Speaker 3: against that defense. 311 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:08,880 Speaker 1: It could be sixty home runs for Cal Rawley. Now, 312 00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 1: what is happening right now in Arizona? Thank you very much? Frossberg. 313 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 1: Dodger bullpen has blown yet another save for to four 314 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: Dodgers Diamondbacks. Dodgers batting in the top of the ninth inning, however, 315 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 1: warming up in the bullpen, looks like he's gonna come 316 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 1: in to pitch the bottom of the ninth inning. Clayton Kershaw. 317 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 1: Kershaw's up in the pen. There was potentially could pitch 318 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 1: an inning tonight. Looks like we might see it in 319 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: the bottom of the ninth and hmm, I'm wondering if 320 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 1: this could be a foreshadowing of the playoffs. Maybe Kershaw 321 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 1: to close? How about that? 322 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 3: Wooo? 323 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 1: We got this story in more big NFL coming up 324 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 1: next right here.

Okay, 427 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,640 Speaker 1: Like from the Mets code, I sanga not gonna pitch 428 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:36,959 Speaker 1: again for the team. Right, the guy was Guy's an 429 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 1: a Hey, guy was phenomenal. Earlier of this season, right 430 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,200 Speaker 1: started out with an ERA of like one and a half. 431 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 1: He was great, thought, he's gonna win the cy young 432 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 1: Guess what Now he's not even with the team and 433 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 1: he's not gonna pitch anymore. The Mets were losing tonight 434 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:52,159 Speaker 1: six to two, Clay Holmes and Sean Maneya came in 435 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 1: to pitch, who have been their starting pitchers for the 436 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:58,719 Speaker 1: whole season. They're scheduled to pitch on Saturday. Right, this 437 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 1: tells me the Mets aren't gonna go to them on Saturday. 438 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 1: It's pretty clear also. 439 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,399 Speaker 3: Because they took him out of his routine and he 440 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 3: didn't know he was playing baseball for good. 441 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 1: Chunks of this game playout who relieved his whole career 442 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 1: until this year. But like the Mets, who need to 443 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 1: win every game to. 444 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,680 Speaker 3: Get to the playoffs, Like, okay, there's only so many 445 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:19,440 Speaker 3: guys you can start. 446 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 1: This was their Saturday in a game they're gonna have 447 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 1: to win. And here come Homes and Manaia and they 448 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:27,959 Speaker 1: pitched tonight, Like are they gonna still pitch Saturday? Like 449 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:29,879 Speaker 1: maybe it was their throat day. So they go, but 450 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 1: I would be surprised. They go, You know what, can't 451 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 1: bring these guys back, can't bring Sean and Noya back, 452 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 1: can't do we gotta do something else. Someone else has 453 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 1: to start this game for the Mets. Right, the Mets like, 454 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:42,120 Speaker 1: we can't yet, we just gave Manaia a seventy five 455 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,199 Speaker 1: million dollars. Sorry, can't do it, can't go to you 456 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 1: the Dodgers tonight. Right, And this is where things get 457 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:49,879 Speaker 1: really big, because last night we talked about how the 458 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: biggest X factor of the playoffs is the Dodgers' bullpen. 459 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 1: No bigger factor than that. If the bullpen sucks, which 460 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 1: it has, they'll go home in the first round. Right, 461 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,159 Speaker 1: that's how how bad it is, so Dave Roberts. Now, 462 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 1: the Dodgers clearly have no time to make friends with anybody. 463 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 1: Now what do we see tonight? Roki Sasaki, right, comes 464 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 1: off the injured off injured, Yeah, comes in in the 465 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:14,719 Speaker 1: seventh inning after Blake Snell pitches yet another gem. If 466 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,200 Speaker 1: the Dodgers are smart, he's your game one starter in 467 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 1: the playoffs. But he comes in, throws one hundred miles 468 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,480 Speaker 1: an hour, gets a couple of strikeouts. You're feeling great, right, Okay, 469 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,440 Speaker 1: he comes out of the game first action a while, 470 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 1: you're feeling okay, he's a guy now that we can 471 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:31,639 Speaker 1: go to him in the playoffs because here he has 472 00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 1: one appearance. He looked really good. 473 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:35,919 Speaker 3: Not that you have a big sample size, but you 474 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 3: have no time to say, well, we have to wait 475 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 3: and see. No, I saw the other guys have sucked. 476 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:43,040 Speaker 3: He is pretty good. His fastball is live. Let's go 477 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 3: to it. 478 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:47,560 Speaker 1: I got you miles an hour, strikeouts, pay all you do. 479 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 8: Ye. 480 00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 3: Then the rest of the bullpen comes in blows the lead. 481 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 3: So now Dodgers Diamondbacks with the Diamondbacks and can pull 482 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 3: into a tie for the Wildcard. 483 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:58,680 Speaker 1: With the win. Dodgers Diamondbacks has tied at four a piece. 484 00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:01,960 Speaker 1: The bullpen blows it for the dodge again, four to four, 485 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 1: going to the bottom of the ninth inning. Who comes 486 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,399 Speaker 1: in for the Dodgers in the bottom of the ninth 487 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,399 Speaker 1: Clayton Kershaw and he gets out of the inning, looks 488 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:13,160 Speaker 1: really good. His ball looked live. We had the big 489 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 1: goodbye to Clayton last week, and you know, his final 490 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,680 Speaker 1: start at Dodger Stadium. And here is Dave Roberts now 491 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 1: trying out, throwing all kinds of stuff at the wall, 492 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,119 Speaker 1: hoping you get something that can work and get lightning 493 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 1: in a bottle. It's what the Mets are trying to 494 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,360 Speaker 1: do with their bullpen. That's what other teams are trying 495 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:29,359 Speaker 1: to do with their starting pitchers. It's what the Dodgers 496 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 1: are trying to do with their bullpen. Now, hey, Sasaki's 497 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 1: coming in right now. You pitch great, Guess what you're 498 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,680 Speaker 1: pitching in the playoffs? Here comes Clayton Kershaw. Guess who 499 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:39,639 Speaker 1: could be closing for the Dodgers, right Tanner, Scott's not 500 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 1: doing it. Twenty seven blown saves. Now for the Dodger bullpen. 501 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:46,440 Speaker 1: Twenty seven man. Edwin Diaz blows too. When I gotta 502 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 1: stop watching the Mets for a day and a half. 503 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 1: Twenty seven Blown saves twenty seven The stick cruise to 504 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 1: that over that high window. I mean, I'm gonna be cruising. 505 00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 1: Let's say they blow seven, which is a lot. Let's 506 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:04,399 Speaker 1: say about it's twenty more wins man. Twenty seven blown 507 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:07,399 Speaker 1: saves for the Dodgers. Now here's Clayton Kershaw in the 508 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,200 Speaker 1: ninth inning. If you're gonna lose in the playoffs, I'll 509 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,439 Speaker 1: lose with Kershaw on the ninth inning. I wonder if 510 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 1: he's gonna come in and close games. That's where their 511 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 1: role is gonna be for Kershaw, is he's going to 512 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 1: close games for the Dodge. 513 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 3: But it's funny, it's exactly what we laid out a 514 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 3: couple of weeks ago as we watched the continued bullpen implosions, 515 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 3: particularly with how great the starting pitching had been and 516 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:30,960 Speaker 3: everybody coming back healthy. And you talk about Sasaki being 517 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 3: ready now and getting an opportunity today, is you've got 518 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 3: an excess of arms. You've championed really riding the term 519 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 3: piggybacking as much as you can. But we chronicled when 520 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 3: we were talking about Clayton Kershaw and the end of 521 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 3: his starting run. You know, they dug out the pitching 522 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 3: rubber and all of that fun stuff, but what did 523 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:56,880 Speaker 3: we highlight when he had to close the game out right? 524 00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,880 Speaker 3: One of the big seminal moments of his major league 525 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:03,560 Speaker 3: baseball career came when they called the pen. And now 526 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 3: it's all hands on deck because Dave Roberts the analytics 527 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:07,880 Speaker 3: throw the analytics out right. 528 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:11,159 Speaker 1: What you planned before this season? What you spent? 529 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 3: That sunk costs and those contracts are sunk costs, and 530 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,280 Speaker 3: I think the Dodgers recognize it. Look, we'll go sell 531 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 3: another painting will be great, But yeah, what was it? 532 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:23,479 Speaker 3: What was the Tigers last year? They're they're playoff roster 533 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 3: Hovey Bias, who wasn't playing, was making more money than 534 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 3: the entire Tigers. Hey, these are our guys, doesn't matter. 535 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 3: We can't trust this guy, that guy, the other guy. 536 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:37,400 Speaker 3: And that's where we're at with this Dodger squad at 537 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 3: this point as we uh, you and I pause and 538 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 3: try to evaluate what we just saw here. Uh in 539 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 3: the tenth inning. Uh, you just slumped in your I 540 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:54,320 Speaker 3: just watched it was like I kicked you in the 541 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,639 Speaker 3: gut Dodger in the middle of talking Dodgers that I 542 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:57,479 Speaker 3: felt bad about it. 543 00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 1: Just to tell you real quick. Dodgers Diamondbacks four four, 544 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,119 Speaker 1: top of the tenth inning. So of course you have 545 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 1: a situation with the ghost runner at second. Kim is 546 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,919 Speaker 1: the runner at second. Otani opens up the inning with 547 00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:12,400 Speaker 1: a strikeout, waving at a pitch that's ten feet outside 548 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,919 Speaker 1: of the strike zone, and after a base hit the 549 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: Tommy Edmund Kim gets thrown out at the plate and 550 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:22,240 Speaker 1: he is clearly out. He gets a bad jump on 551 00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 1: the ball, he freezes the line drive to the outfield. 552 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 1: So now Dodgers Diamondbacks zip zip runner at first who 553 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 1: outs in the top of the tenth The Dodger are 554 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 1: challenging this, but they're not gonna win. And the Diamondbacks. 555 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 1: You know they're gonna win this game, and they're gonna 556 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 1: run a run poorn gatorade all over each other on 557 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 1: the field. We're tied for the wild card, but technically 558 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:42,399 Speaker 1: we're in first place because we have the tiebreaker with 559 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:44,960 Speaker 1: the Mets. I mean, come on, man. 560 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 3: Yeah. On the initial play, as it was coming live action, 561 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 3: it's like, all right, did he slide around the tag? 562 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:56,719 Speaker 3: Was he able to evade the sprawling catcher? The answer 563 00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 3: was clearly no, no, no, four to four of the 564 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:03,359 Speaker 3: tenth inning. But you're so salty. But I watched the 565 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:07,200 Speaker 3: emotion in your face as and it made me feel 566 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:09,119 Speaker 3: bad because you know, I've got We've got it on 567 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 3: multiple monitors here in the Fox Sports Radio studios, and 568 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 3: I'm finishing it. What was the salient point? And I 569 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 3: was going to pass the baton? I knew you were 570 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 3: not ready to hand. 571 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 1: No, right there, not great, Bob wasn't good. It was 572 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 1: not good. Wasn't great, Bob wasn't great. 573 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:25,040 Speaker 3: Look but look, yes, this is what did he check 574 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:26,680 Speaker 3: his phone after he threw the guy out? 575 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:28,119 Speaker 2: Nobody? 576 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 3: He pulls something out of his Yeah, no, he's looking 577 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:32,160 Speaker 3: at the alignment card. He's looking at the alignment card. 578 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:33,440 Speaker 3: That's what he's looked at. 579 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:35,400 Speaker 1: Like, what the hell's he got in his head? It's 580 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:37,920 Speaker 1: the alignment cars where we like to play the guys, 581 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,159 Speaker 1: or like it was the alignment card. I really you 582 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,359 Speaker 1: should have to memorize that able to have that. 583 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,679 Speaker 3: I don't think I don't think Corbyn Carroll is checking 584 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:45,640 Speaker 3: its fundamn. 585 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:47,399 Speaker 1: But but no. 586 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:49,879 Speaker 3: But this is why baseball is great because it's the 587 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 3: end of the year and the desperation. If I'm sweating 588 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 3: it out, I want to see my team sweating it out. 589 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 3: And here are the Dodgers who were so desperate. Here's 590 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 3: Kershaw in the ninth inning, right, here's rookie Sasaki. Activate 591 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,120 Speaker 3: we're gonna give them a start. No, no, no, coming 592 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 3: out of the bullpen. 593 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 1: They have their starters, right, they have their starters, Blake Snell, 594 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 1: Yamamoto and most likely maybe with a piggyback situation. But 595 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 1: Otani will start the next game. Who knows how far 596 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:15,720 Speaker 1: he can go, maybe five or six innings anything of that. 597 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 1: So you're good. 598 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:18,920 Speaker 3: You have your starters, right, You'll figure things out as 599 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,439 Speaker 3: it goes on. But that's your first three. So what 600 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:22,840 Speaker 3: do we do with the bullpen. You just got to 601 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,440 Speaker 3: keep throwing guys out there. And I love that desperation 602 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:30,719 Speaker 3: and anxiety and nervousness and what do we do? Sometimes 603 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:32,959 Speaker 3: you just have to say, you know what, why the blank? 604 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 1: Not right? Well, why not? 605 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 3: But what I've been doing, and by running the numbers, 606 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 3: by running the probabilities and the histories of these players 607 00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 3: clearly hasn't worked. Twenty seven blown saves over the course 608 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 3: of this season. We've watched it in time after time. 609 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 3: We've had a front row seat for these games. So 610 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 3: when you've got a guy like Kershaw, and a lot 611 00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 3: of speculation was after that start, where we going to 612 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 3: see him again? Right when he makes the big announcement 613 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:02,719 Speaker 3: and everything else, like all right, is this you know 614 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,480 Speaker 3: a Queen's wave, King's. 615 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 1: Wave, whatever you want to do with it. Of hey, 616 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 1: that that's it. 617 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 3: No, Instead we saw him up and circulating in the 618 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 3: bullpen earlier, prompting speculation. And then in the ninth comes 619 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 3: in fifteen pitches, eight for strikes, no strikeouts, but a 620 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 3: clean ninth inning to get you to the tenth and 621 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 3: then the unfortunate great throw on that single by Carroll 622 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:29,640 Speaker 3: to cut down Kim at the plate, look, and here's 623 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 3: the thing, even though it would take a little bit. 624 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 3: The next four days after this, the Dodgers lose this game. 625 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 3: Their lead over the Padres is a game in the 626 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 3: head magic numbers at two to dion. 627 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 1: It's a game and a half going to the final 628 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 1: series of the year, like this should have been where Hey, 629 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 1: we're resting right now. We don't have to worry about anything, right, 630 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 1: We're just getting our rotation. Maybe the Mariners are celebrating 631 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 1: too hard and won't recover for the wall. My goodness, 632 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:58,920 Speaker 1: So again, look again, But the desperation we see like 633 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 1: is all we think. The excitement of Kershaw coming in 634 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 1: the ninth inning to close a game, right, Sasaki coming 635 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 1: in the seventh inning to throw one hundred miles an hour, 636 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:07,360 Speaker 1: like this is exciting stuff. 637 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 3: What do I always tell you? I want casts between 638 00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 3: the white lines and the rest of the world.

So baces loaded, chaos. 735 00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,000 Speaker 1: The most overrated story of the last couple of weeks 736 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:25,320 Speaker 1: continues to gain traction, and it doesn't make sense. But 737 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:28,480 Speaker 1: at least I can tell you why. Tom Brady is 738 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:31,319 Speaker 1: now pushing back on concerns that there's a conflict of 739 00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:34,840 Speaker 1: interest between his role as a Raiders minority owner and 740 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:39,160 Speaker 1: Fox Sports broadcaster. So he's got a weekly newsletter called 741 00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,000 Speaker 1: do your Job, How about That which was published earlier 742 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:45,760 Speaker 1: to do in which he wrote that only the quote 743 00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:50,720 Speaker 1: paranoid and distrustful believe there's conflict in his roles quote 744 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:54,800 Speaker 1: my roles in it. Intersect is not actually a point 745 00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 1: of conflict, despite what the paranoid and distrustful might believe. Rather, 746 00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:03,800 Speaker 1: it's the place from which my ethical duty emerges to grow, evolve, 747 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:07,360 Speaker 1: and improve the game that has given me everything. I 748 00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:08,040 Speaker 1: think we need some. 749 00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:10,439 Speaker 3: Kind of like Robbie Schenker, some sort of like new 750 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:14,279 Speaker 3: Agent Sitar behind your home. It is for the paranoid 751 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:18,440 Speaker 3: and distrustful who believe that this is something that is 752 00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:21,080 Speaker 3: a big deal. I'm gonna make that shirt tonight. Paranoid 753 00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 3: and distrustful. Look again, it's overrated. 754 00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:30,040 Speaker 1: No one's walking into a meeting, broadcast meeting before the 755 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,400 Speaker 1: game that Brady's doing. No one's walking No coaches are 756 00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:35,520 Speaker 1: walking in telling every all the broadcasters their secrets. 757 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,400 Speaker 3: It's just stupid. It's stupid that people think this is 758 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:40,839 Speaker 3: going on, and it's a huge conflict of interest. There 759 00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:42,920 Speaker 3: was never it would have come up before now, there 760 00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:45,359 Speaker 3: would have been concerns now that hey, so and so, 761 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:50,240 Speaker 3: former Raiders legend doing games, he's gonna tell the Raiders stuff. 762 00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:53,759 Speaker 3: Former Steelers legend's gonna tell the Steelers stuff. He hears no, 763 00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:57,640 Speaker 3: But because it's Tom Brady, it's a big deal. And 764 00:36:57,760 --> 00:37:01,120 Speaker 3: the reason this is going on is because even though 765 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 3: Brady's retired, we're at the point now where we are 766 00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:11,040 Speaker 3: still in the afterburn of Brady being the biggest NFL 767 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:12,840 Speaker 3: star of the past two decades. Right. 768 00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:15,440 Speaker 1: We love Mahomes, we love Lamar Jackson, what other guys do? 769 00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:19,120 Speaker 1: We love them? But Tom Brady is still the greatest 770 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:22,640 Speaker 1: quarterback any of us have ever seen, and he's had 771 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:26,040 Speaker 1: the career better than anybody, and he's someone that when 772 00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:29,239 Speaker 1: he does stuff we pay attention to. If this was 773 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:32,319 Speaker 1: Troy Aikman, if this was Tony Romo, nobody would care. 774 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:34,920 Speaker 1: Nobody would care about those guys. But it's Brady, so 775 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,839 Speaker 1: everybody cares because we care about what he does in 776 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:40,440 Speaker 1: that way is like Lebron. Lebron does off the court 777 00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:43,160 Speaker 1: we care mentally about, and Lebron's a little bit more polarizing. 778 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:45,839 Speaker 1: But Brady's someone we still want to talk about. And 779 00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:49,839 Speaker 1: he's doing a thousand things, probably too many, which, to 780 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 1: be honest, maybe a little bit less and do a 781 00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:54,719 Speaker 1: little bit more broadcasting. I don't know, because you see 782 00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:56,640 Speaker 1: what you're struggling at, what you're trying to do better at. 783 00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:59,319 Speaker 1: But he's doing a thousand different things. So we can 784 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:01,040 Speaker 1: pick what we like, whether we want to talk about 785 00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:02,799 Speaker 1: him owning the Raiders, where you want to talk about 786 00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:05,000 Speaker 1: him being a broadcast or all that. His card shops 787 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:07,320 Speaker 1: are pretty cool. Yeah, so he does everything right, He 788 00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:09,800 Speaker 1: does all these things, So we pick and choose and 789 00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 1: want to talk about because Brady is still staying in 790 00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:13,160 Speaker 1: the public consciousness. 791 00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:13,359 Speaker 3: Right. 792 00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:16,880 Speaker 1: So with that being said, I can tell you exactly 793 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:20,560 Speaker 1: how to help Brady and win people over and tamp 794 00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:21,120 Speaker 1: this thing down. 795 00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:21,279 Speaker 4: Right. 796 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:24,799 Speaker 1: Some about solutions, right, it's overrated, it's a whole big thing. 797 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:27,279 Speaker 1: But the way you help, the way you can tamp 798 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 1: this down is Tom be a little loose with stuff, 799 00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:34,000 Speaker 1: Be a little self deprecating, okay, be a little bit 800 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:36,120 Speaker 1: of I don't know how the headset works in the 801 00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:38,600 Speaker 1: Raiders in the Rain. I haven't been in a meeting 802 00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,040 Speaker 1: in months. I don't know what's going like there's a 803 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:45,000 Speaker 1: way to But he's so serious about everything he does. 804 00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:48,160 Speaker 1: He's incredibly serious with every single bit. And I love 805 00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:50,279 Speaker 1: that you take yourself serious what you do for a living. 806 00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:52,319 Speaker 1: That's awesome, right, because you should be due. You're doing 807 00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:54,880 Speaker 1: this for a living for a reason. But not everything 808 00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:58,480 Speaker 1: needs to be the paranoid and distrustful and giving back 809 00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:01,200 Speaker 1: to the game and the moracle and duty to the sport. 810 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 1: Like dude, you could just say a couple of fun 811 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 1: things and people would just like it more and they 812 00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:08,160 Speaker 1: would give you a bit of a break on it. 813 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:10,920 Speaker 1: And there's so many things you can do. Everything doesn't 814 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 1: need to be life and down. Look look at Peyton Manning. 815 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:15,359 Speaker 1: He was the most serious guy we had seen. Look 816 00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:17,600 Speaker 1: at what he's done the last year's in retirement. He's fun. 817 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:19,680 Speaker 1: He doesn't mind poking fun of himself. He doesn't mind 818 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:21,680 Speaker 1: being the butt of a joke. He doesn't he doesn't 819 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:24,319 Speaker 1: mind any of that, and so Peyton Manning's become so 820 00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:28,040 Speaker 1: beloved over the past few years. Brady can do that 821 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:29,920 Speaker 1: as well. Don't mean to change who you are, but 822 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:32,359 Speaker 1: just hey, give us a little bit and you take 823 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:36,320 Speaker 1: care of the avalanche of criticism that comes in on you. 824 00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:40,040 Speaker 1: Just everything doesn't need to be.

Right, you're trying to get better in 827 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:48,080 Speaker 1: that role. Great folks don't like it. Tough no geese, 828 00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:52,400 Speaker 1: as they said when we were kids. So it doesn't 829 00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:55,880 Speaker 1: really matter.
