1
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:13,159
Speaker 1: Who let David Stearns cook. Freddie Peralta is a New

2
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:16,079
Speaker 1: York Met trading Brandon's bro Jet Williams. We also got

3
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:19,919
Speaker 1: Tobias Myers. Everyone has wanted an a starting pitcher, and

4
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:21,960
Speaker 1: the New York Mets just went out and said, oh yeah,

5
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,759
Speaker 1: Freddy Peralta, you're ours. Freddie Perolta, New York Met James.

6
00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:29,320
Speaker 1: David Stearns has only decided to start cooking as soon

7
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 1: as I go on vacation. Doesn't give me a second

8
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:35,479
Speaker 1: to relax. How are you feelingcying this news? Fantastic?

9
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:37,599
Speaker 2: This is awesome, Like I still don't even know if

10
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:40,440
Speaker 2: the offseason is technically over yet, but like this is

11
00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 2: what we've been waiting for for months now, Like we

12
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,280
Speaker 2: did a whole line up, been a whole line about

13
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:47,199
Speaker 2: over the last three months. We watched a lot a

14
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:49,880
Speaker 2: lot of your guys favorite players come and go, lots

15
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 2: of crazy other players coming in recently, but everyone said, like,

16
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 2: you need a pitcher, and this kind of this offseason

17
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,360
Speaker 2: still would have felt like a bit of a half

18
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 2: measure without getting a real starting pitcher. And you got

19
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 2: a real starting pitcher, Like this was I mean, right

20
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 2: now in the trade market seems like Freddie Peralta, unless

21
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 2: Trek Scoop was actually available. He was the best starting

22
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 2: pitcher available. You had a bunch of your rivals gunning

23
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:10,639
Speaker 2: for him. If I don't know if you guys consider

24
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 2: the Dodgers' rival, but the Braids were definitely involved, the

25
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 2: Yankees were definitely involved, the Padres were definitely involved, and

26
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:17,760
Speaker 2: the Mets made the best offer. They got Freddy. They

27
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:19,919
Speaker 2: got a great auxiliary piece with him and Tobias Myers.

28
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,399
Speaker 2: This is a this is a lights out awesome deal. Yeah,

29
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:25,959
Speaker 2: this got me again. I was giddy about Luis Roberio,

30
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 2: so that was a personal thing. Or no, not Robert,

31
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 2: It's it's Robert Robert, Robert, Luis Robert. Because in Cuba

32
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:34,399
Speaker 2: they don't pronounce the teas. I know people in our

33
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:36,959
Speaker 2: comment section were saying that Latinos do, but apparently in

34
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 2: Cuba it's different.

35
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,760
Speaker 1: Regardless, not the point of this video. Like me and

36
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 1: my dad were giddy about this when we were sitting

37
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,040
Speaker 1: around the table playing some Rummy Cube. I don't know

38
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 1: if you guys have ever played that game. Absolutely electric,

39
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 1: and I'm texting like, we got Freddy Peralta. We got

40
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 1: Freddy Peralta. And it's so funny because we were making

41
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 1: fun of that awful, awful trade proposal the other day.

42
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 1: Brett Baty, Joonatan, Ronnie Mauricio and brewerce Fan we're in

43
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 1: my comments. There was a certain glut of Met fans

44
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 1: that hate my guts for everything that I say. Tell me, oh,

45
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 1: you're an idiot. The Mets would would do this trade

46
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:10,600
Speaker 1: and a hard beat Brewers would never answer. The Mets

47
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:12,679
Speaker 1: gave up way less than that. There was still a

48
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,799
Speaker 1: good haul back for the Brewers objective, very good haul back.

49
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 1: Brandon's sprot and Jet Williams I think are gonna be

50
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 1: two really good players for the Brewers in the future.

51
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,080
Speaker 1: But the Mets to not give up again a mega,

52
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 1: mega top prospect for them. Jet Williams is awesome. Jet

53
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 1: Williams is the top fifty guy and brandon'sprote who kind

54
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 1: of with Tobias Myers kind of just swapped our guys

55
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,079
Speaker 1: in a way like to then get Freddy Prault to

56
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:35,799
Speaker 1: this is incredible. No, this is great.

57
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:37,119
Speaker 2: And again I don't I don't want to poop poo

58
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 2: the package that we sent back. The Mets did trade

59
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,079
Speaker 2: back pieces together them especially if Freddie Prault's rensel. I

60
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 2: think we'll go on with this to kind of figure

61
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 2: out talk about if there's even a chance to give

62
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 2: Freddy Prawlt then extension. But I think we're gonna save

63
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,519
Speaker 2: the first part of this for just one The job

64
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 2: of David Searns in the last five days to make

65
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 2: all this.

66
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,920
Speaker 1: As soon as I got in Puerto Rico, he was like,

67
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,359
Speaker 1: let's get to work. Even just the idea of how

68
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 1: today they brought in Boba chev for the introductory press conference.

69
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 1: Steve Gelbs asked him after the press conference, David Seerns,

70
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 1: the off season has been great, what's next? And Serns

71
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:09,679
Speaker 1: because we'd still like to go get a picture. We

72
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 1: would like to go get a picture. I've said it

73
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 1: all off season. And then four or five hours later

74
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:15,399
Speaker 1: he went and got his guy.

75
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, and even during that press conference, and that's signed.

76
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 2: Very minimal move Luis Garcia to a major league deal

77
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 2: for a little bit under two millions, just be more

78
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 2: middle relief depth.

79
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,239
Speaker 1: This is Oh, we got that Louis Garcia, the guy

80
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,239
Speaker 1: who's like one hundred but got ninety eight. Yeah, that's perfect.

81
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: Exactly what we need is a cheap gas.

82
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:33,520
Speaker 2: But it's just like this is fantastic, Like Freddie perlt

83
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 2: I think by all accounts and measures, it's very comfortably

84
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 2: like a top twenty ish pitcher.

85
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 1: In the league.

86
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 2: Yes he's not, I'm I think some people are gonna

87
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 2: throw around the attag Freddie Peralta.

88
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 1: He's our race, he's our race.

89
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 2: Yes, he's a ra's He's definitely not a top to

90
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 2: pitch in the game, not to throw cold water.

91
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 1: He's very good.

92
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 2: I did my first picture rankings today from the start

93
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 2: doing more content now he's a twenty one on my list,

94
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 2: right in between Spencers Schwellenbach and fran bar Valdez's just funny,

95
00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 2: but like he's great. One of the things I like

96
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 2: about Freddie prawlt A lot is that while he's been

97
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 2: one of the again the best twenty or so pitchers

98
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 2: in the league over the last five years, he became

99
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 2: a full time start in twenty twenty one.

100
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 1: What Freddy was twenty for me, by the way, that's

101
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 1: that's pretty spot on rankings from the two of us

102
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 1: without I know you didn't.

103
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 2: See it now, that's but that was really really funny.

104
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,600
Speaker 2: But since twenty twenty one and Freddy became a full

105
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,839
Speaker 2: time starting pitcher. He's guest seven hundred for the innings,

106
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,839
Speaker 2: a three point three ERA, a thirty percent strikeout rate. Like,

107
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:25,839
Speaker 2: right there, that's one of the best pitchers in the league.

108
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:27,719
Speaker 2: He's made three years in a row with at least

109
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 2: thirty starts his all his ra estimators are not really

110
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 2: far off from his actual eras can't really say there's

111
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:34,920
Speaker 2: a lot of good luck going out with Freddy and

112
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:36,799
Speaker 2: past the consistency of what he's become.

113
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,239
Speaker 1: Since he did become this full.

114
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 2: Time guy, he's kind of just easing into himself, knowing

115
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 2: how to pitch like stuff's always been great for Freddie.

116
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 2: Fastball Freddy's he used to call him back in the day,

117
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,039
Speaker 2: but like he's now just kind of hitting the next

118
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 2: level with pitch mix working the count a little bit,

119
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 2: like understanding his spots, understanding how to how to play

120
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 2: leverage and play the hitters like it was. He was

121
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 2: one of the most fun watching, I think in the

122
00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 2: game last year. And the fact that we can get

123
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 2: him on could be upward trajectory is so much fun and.

124
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 1: The end of the season so strong too. I think

125
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 1: the k rate climbed month after month after month the

126
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 1: end of the season in twenty twenty five. We've mentioned it before,

127
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 1: pitching development is so different than hitters because at times

128
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 1: people expect, I think, for any kind of pitcher you

129
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 1: come onto the scene and if you're not Paul Skians,

130
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:20,919
Speaker 1: you're not that kind of guy. Well maybe you're not

131
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 1: going to eventually be an ace. But with Freddy Peralta

132
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,280
Speaker 1: getting better and better and better every year, getting more

133
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 1: innings underneath his belt, still very much in his physical prime,

134
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 1: this is a guy who could take that next step

135
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,080
Speaker 1: this year with the Mets and become one of the

136
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,640
Speaker 1: best pitchers in baseball if the things keep moving forward

137
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:37,280
Speaker 1: like they have been.

138
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 2: Possibly, but also there's going to be something that's baked

139
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 2: into Freddie Peralta now where like a lot of people

140
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 2: are going to see the shiny two point seven ra

141
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 2: last year, he's not a two point seven ray, Yes,

142
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 2: like a nice three three, three, four, three five.

143
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:50,840
Speaker 1: That's the place the wind up. The end of this

144
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,679
Speaker 1: is coming to a more pitcher friendly park in city

145
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 1: Field than he is in Milwaukee.

146
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,159
Speaker 2: You're probably getting a bit of a wash on defense,

147
00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 2: depending on how all the Mets stuff winds up. When

148
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 2: we actually get into this season, get going with all

149
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 2: this stuff. But he's again, he is just very good.

150
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,280
Speaker 2: He's also a guy that as he's matured, he's been

151
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,919
Speaker 2: gaining velocity, Like he's been picking up fastball vlass a

152
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:10,159
Speaker 2: year over year. When he was a rookie in twenty eighteen,

153
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 2: he sat in ninety one. This past year, he sat

154
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 2: in ninety five. Like that's kind of a cool thing.

155
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 2: Is he enters age thirty. And also again just as

156
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 2: a lesson to the pitchers that we have in the

157
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,039
Speaker 2: system right now, and like you just talking about pitching

158
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 2: development not being linear, it took Freddy Prawlton about two

159
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 2: hundred major league gintings, Yeah, to get himself to being

160
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,160
Speaker 2: Freddie Pralt Like there was some there was some real

161
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 2: rough patches twenty eighteen, twenty nineteen, Freddy prawl to where

162
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 2: it was.

163
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 1: Again it was fastball. Sterns knew it too.

164
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 2: That's another cool connection about this, Like he was one

165
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 2: of the best development success stories of the David Sterns

166
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:39,919
Speaker 2: Brewers of that era. Like he kind of changed the

167
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 2: way that team was for lack of a vedic term

168
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,839
Speaker 2: moving through the early twenty twenties, Like once he was

169
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,599
Speaker 2: like kind of the bucking Bronco. Then he became like

170
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:51,039
Speaker 2: a true front ish line pitcher, Like, oh this these

171
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 2: guys are really cooking with something here this organization.

172
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 1: He was kind of emblematic of that. Yeah, because of

173
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 1: Freddy Prawlt, they were able to move on from Corbin Burns.

174
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 1: Granted the Prospect deal wasn't great for Corbin, but like

175
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 1: the idea was that they now had this kind of

176
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 1: pitching lab that we're now seeing with the Mets. I

177
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 1: wonder why, I wonder what the common denominator there could be,

178
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 1: But it was just like they just kept churning out

179
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 1: pitcher after pitcher after pitcher, and Freddy became one of

180
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 1: those guys. After we saw Burns and Woodriff have so

181
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 1: much success. And the fact that we get to add

182
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 1: for a paralta to this rotation seemingly going to be

183
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: the opening day starter, you got Noel McLain now moving

184
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 1: to the number two spot. This starting rotation becomes so

185
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 1: much more interesting, so much more depth, so many more arms.

186
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 1: You can put guys in the bullpen, you can put

187
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 1: them in so many different situations. The flexibility now on

188
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,679
Speaker 1: the starting pitching side by adding Freddy Parolta to this rotation.

189
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: It's kind of very similar to what we're doing at

190
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 1: the plate offensively, where a lot of guys can do

191
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 1: a lot of different things, but there are still those

192
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 1: key components, those stars in the right spots that you

193
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: kind of build around, and that's what it seems like

194
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 1: the Mets are doing.

195
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 2: It Also is nice to take some of this not heat,

196
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 2: but like a good bit of this pressure off Nolan McLain, Like,

197
00:07:58,080 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 2: I think we both believe he could handle.

198
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 1: It, like to be is I think he is an ace?

199
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like but least at least right now borderline top

200
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 2: thirty pitchers in the league. Like let's see how the

201
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 2: league responds to him now the second time around. But

202
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 2: to give a young man like that the Keys during

203
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 2: his actual technical rookie season and be like, you're the

204
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 2: opening day star there for this team that just had

205
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 2: a ballistic offseason even before Freddie Prault, like lots of in,

206
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 2: lots of out, No matter what, the fans were still

207
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 2: going to be a little bit, uh cantankerous and like

208
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 2: you kind of have a season where we kind of

209
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 2: need to make the playoffs to say, hey, look like

210
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 2: you're you're the Ace like that that that is a

211
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 2: lot for a young man to take on. So it's

212
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 2: cool that now Freddie Pralter can really ease some of

213
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 2: that pressure off. Noilan maclay and now that's an incredibly

214
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 2: formidable one two in the National League.

215
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 1: Like that's oh, it's awesome. It's one of the top

216
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:42,680
Speaker 1: one two punches in the league.

217
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:43,839
Speaker 2: And know, it was a lot of good, really really

218
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 2: good one two punches around, especially the Dodgers one through four,

219
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 2: Swelling and schwellenback and Sale if Zach Wheeler's healthy, him

220
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 2: and Christopher Sanchez. But like this is still we now

221
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 2: have a rotation that can kind of a little bit

222
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 2: more so dance with those big dogs, which is super fun.

223
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, we have a rotation that feels a lot more comfortable,

224
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 1: and I think for every ilk of Met fan, you

225
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 1: feel a lot more comfortable now with Freddie perraulta being

226
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 1: in this rotation as the actual number one all off season,

227
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 1: everybody's one of that starting pitcher, this is the guy.

228
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 1: I don't think the Mets necessarily go after more starting pitching,

229
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: especially with the addition of Tobias Myers two in this trade,

230
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 1: not that he's going to be immediately in this rotation

231
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 1: or anything, but the fact that he is starting rotation

232
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,520
Speaker 1: depth that kind of feels like now the Mets are

233
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 1: are probably done on the starting pitching market, unless Ramber

234
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 1: is so so cheap. Yeah no, I might.

235
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:36,120
Speaker 2: I actually disagree with that, just because I can still

236
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 2: see them trying to work a trade for a guy

237
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,680
Speaker 2: like David Peterson or even still possibly even code saying

238
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:43,679
Speaker 2: like if you do, guess that would be it, because

239
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:46,839
Speaker 2: it probably is, you're probably less inclined to You're probably

240
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:48,960
Speaker 2: more inclined to sign a guy with a QO penalty. Again,

241
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 2: like Franmerfaldez, if you are able to trade David Peterson

242
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 2: for something like you would have something like you're giving

243
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:56,360
Speaker 2: up for the QO the next year, especially because the

244
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 2: last QO was relatively washed for Edward signed with the Dodgers,

245
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:00,760
Speaker 2: Like you know what I mean, Like you try and

246
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 2: want to keep that those penalties plus the additions as

247
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 2: even as possible. I just I don't know, after this

248
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 2: week you think they're done, Like this is Michael corleone.

249
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 1: Shit, we're like move move, move like that means team fast.

250
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 1: Like I'm in Puerto Rico until Sunday and it's gonna

251
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 1: be a foot and a half apparently on Sunday, so

252
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 1: I'm probably here until Tuesday, which means maybe David Stearns

253
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 1: has still got something left. It wouldn't surprise me. I

254
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 1: think I'm gonna caution everyone like the expectations, like I'll

255
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 1: say this, like, if we just go out and get

256
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 1: some relievers, now, I'm gonna feel pretty okay with this offseason.

257
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,720
Speaker 1: I got no complaints whatsoever. If this is what the

258
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,320
Speaker 1: Mets did. It was a crazy way to get here.

259
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: But I think like me and you being big Sterns guys,

260
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 1: being like you just gotta let him.

261
00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:43,960
Speaker 3: Let him.

262
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 1: I wavered, I wavered, but he showed me. I said,

263
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,079
Speaker 1: David Sterns, you gotta show me. I'm not sure what's

264
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 1: going on. I don't know what the plan is. I

265
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 1: see the plan now I go. But I should have

266
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 1: never even wavered for a second on you.

267
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 2: It is funny too, because like the way this offseason was,

268
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 2: there was like a bit of a uh, I don't know.

269
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,319
Speaker 2: It felt a little bit timeline wise like the Mets season,

270
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 2: but complete reverse.

271
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,800
Speaker 1: Like the way the way the off season began. People

272
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,960
Speaker 1: are like, oh my god, this is four Mets.

273
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then all of this yeah, right, and then

274
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 2: all of a sudden in January when most usually the

275
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 2: off season is relatively done ish besides like a few moves,

276
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,080
Speaker 2: a few free agents kind of waiting it out, like

277
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 2: you got some of the best overall players available that

278
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 2: even change teams, Like is this is this the anger

279
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:25,679
Speaker 2: that was spurns by Kyle Tucker?

280
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 1: Is the Steven Matt's two point zero better version of it?

281
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 3: Like?

282
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:29,840
Speaker 1: I well, I mean, it depends what you ask in

283
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 1: the media world, because apparently whenever the Mets do something good,

284
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,840
Speaker 1: it's Steve Cohen's doing. Whenever there's something bad going on,

285
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 1: that's on David Sturns. Completely ignore any of the stuff

286
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,720
Speaker 1: that Steve Cohen or David Sturts have done their career.

287
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 1: That's how it works now. And you know what, I

288
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:45,319
Speaker 1: think David Surts is okay with that too. I don't

289
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 1: think he wants the credit. All he wants to do

290
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 1: is put a good baseball team out there and win.

291
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:50,679
Speaker 2: Where the irony is the one thing that Mets might

292
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:52,839
Speaker 2: have truly missed on the most of offseason, Kyle Tucker,

293
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,040
Speaker 2: that might have there's non zero chance that was impacted

294
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,160
Speaker 2: by Steve Cohen just just going on the conduct computer tweeting.

295
00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:00,040
Speaker 2: Before we really change the subject, Can I get a

296
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:02,360
Speaker 2: little deep on some of the changes Freddy Proulton made

297
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 2: last year.

298
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:04,560
Speaker 1: It get a little get a little deep with us, James,

299
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,560
Speaker 1: give us a little pitching grower of stuff.

300
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,280
Speaker 2: I mean pause, but like just some something cool again.

301
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:10,679
Speaker 2: The fact that Freddie's been adding some velosity slowly. I

302
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 2: think that's a nice thing. Freddie's also been kind of

303
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 2: just manipulating his arm angle a little bit the last

304
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,319
Speaker 2: few years. It's ticked up like a teeny tiny bit.

305
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 2: It's also releasing a tiny bit further away from his body.

306
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 2: In doing that, he's gotten more cut on a fastball

307
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,160
Speaker 2: already has natural rythe on it, which is nice. But

308
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 2: the biggest thing Freddy did last year which definitely kind

309
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,079
Speaker 2: of made me think very differently of him as a pitcher.

310
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 2: And I think that's I mean, I think also that's

311
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 2: coming to the world right now. And also it was

312
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,840
Speaker 2: reflected in zright kind of you know, someone Extanley.

313
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 1: Because also coming into last year you were like, he's

314
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 1: a borderline.

315
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 2: Top thirty guy for sure, because it was always like

316
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,559
Speaker 2: fastball Freddy and fastball Freddy was just kind of the

317
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 2: nickname because it has a good literation, but it was

318
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 2: fastball slide of Freddy, Like he was a guy who

319
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 2: he would start you out with his fastball and then

320
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 2: he would start to throw a slider when he got

321
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 2: ahead of the count, and he was kind of.

322
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,319
Speaker 1: Thing where the righty's basically always kind.

323
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 2: Of knew that was what was coming. There wasn't that

324
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 2: much else in the lefties. He was still able to

325
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 2: mix and match the curveball in the change up with

326
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:04,240
Speaker 2: those two pitches. But last year he finally found like

327
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 2: this real true consistency with that changeup more than he

328
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 2: had before. Like, just as a comparison, whereas I've got

329
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 2: the Sava page open right now, that change up usage

330
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,200
Speaker 2: ticked up about four percent. But in that change up

331
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,440
Speaker 2: usage ticking up, he still was throwing it much more often.

332
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 2: I got these two Brooks baseball tabs open at the

333
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,080
Speaker 2: same time much more often to the righties. And we

334
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 2: kind of talk a lot about the same side changeups,

335
00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 2: how they kind of go back and forth in the

336
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:29,560
Speaker 2: pitching circles. I think to be able to throw that

337
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 2: pitch same hands, inness, you have to be really fucking

338
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 2: confident where you're putting it. So I think the fact

339
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 2: that we saw Freddy prawl is able to throw that

340
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:39,680
Speaker 2: pitch more often against the righties, and a lot more often,

341
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:42,959
Speaker 2: especially when he'd fallen behind early in the count when

342
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 2: the rities were ahead of him. Last year in the count,

343
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 2: he threw that change up twenty five percent of the

344
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 2: time from the year before fifteen percent. So the fact

345
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:50,719
Speaker 2: that he was able to use that pitch is to

346
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 2: get me over. It sounds like a small thing, but

347
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,240
Speaker 2: that's a lot of confidence in that pitch. And another

348
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:57,840
Speaker 2: thing confidence why is that Freddy kind of began to

349
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,960
Speaker 2: find his curveball. He changed he tightened up his slyder

350
00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 2: shape a little bit, so I think it got I mean,

351
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 2: I think it just helped them open up where he

352
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:07,319
Speaker 2: can put that curveball. And in doing so, he threw

353
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 2: that curve ball eight percent of the time to lefties

354
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty four, sixteen percent twenty twenty five, but

355
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 2: with two strikes twenty five percent of the time to

356
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 2: left these last season, up from nine percent.

357
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:17,839
Speaker 1: The year before.

358
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 2: So the fact that he got those two pitches who

359
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 2: were kind of his like secondary of secondary weapons and

360
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 2: he turned them both into having real roles, especially the

361
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 2: curve being a pull away.

362
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 1: Pitch while also now picking spots with that slider.

363
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 2: It's whiff frame went to fifty three percent when it

364
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:33,760
Speaker 2: kind of sat in the fifties and forties his whole career,

365
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 2: and still being able to layer those fastballs in like

366
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 2: he became a complete pitcher.

367
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 1: It was.

368
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 2: It wasn't like a metamorphosis, but those that's the kind

369
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 2: of growth you'd like to see from a guy who

370
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 2: was a project, like a big, big, a big work

371
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 2: in progress in the early part of his career. Was

372
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 2: God getting by again on stuff athleticism and just dogging

373
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 2: those really nice fastballs in your age twenty nine season,

374
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 2: taking that step becoming the ace of your own staff

375
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,560
Speaker 2: like that was cool to see. And it feels like

376
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 2: he's someone that could be ready to really take on

377
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 2: more now coming to a new organization in the Mets.

378
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 1: I mean, it seems like those are the kind of

379
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 1: players and personalities that David Stearns and the Mets are

380
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 1: looking for, especially on the pitching side. Like we're we're

381
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 1: gonna make some changes to you. There's gonna be some tweaks,

382
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 1: but if you're open to him. I think we're gonna

383
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 1: make you into a better picture.

384
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 2: Also funny caveat to this, like Freddie Prault is one

385
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,040
Speaker 2: of the best Latino pitchers and all of baseball shout

386
00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 2: out teams of Minican coming up in the World Baseball Classic.

387
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 2: A lot of the lunatic fringe on Twitter has talked

388
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:31,680
Speaker 2: about the fake clause and one. So this contract, yeahs again,

389
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 2: I think I think it's very fun for this clubhouse

390
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 2: that we're just Freddie Prault is a dude, like he

391
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:36,560
Speaker 2: gets it.

392
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 1: That's another mercenary, James, another mercenary too. Freddy Pralt likely

393
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 1: here for one year. I hate to say that. I

394
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 1: know that maybe though, maybe because he's such an interesting

395
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 1: picture where Okay, he could bet on himself this year

396
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 1: and we did see the changes last year, and if

397
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 1: he does that again, he is going to get on

398
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 1: the open market. But if the Mets show to him

399
00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 1: right now with a pretty fair contract from both sides

400
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 1: and some length, I think you'd be inclined to take it.

401
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 1: And we do know that there is that thing with

402
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 1: the Latino players where they are open to extensions more

403
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 1: so than the American players. Before they hit free agency.

404
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 2: Flip sided is that Freddie already had signed extension. He

405
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 2: signed an arbitration a void with the Brewers ahead of

406
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 2: the twenty twenty season that paid them fifteen million over

407
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,440
Speaker 2: five years. It canceled out his last year of pre

408
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 2: arb three years of arbitration, where the extension paid him

409
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 2: two point five million, three point seven million, five point

410
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 2: seven million.

411
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 1: It wasn't a great contract. He would have smacked those

412
00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 1: numbers if he went to arbitration. Well did he take that?

413
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 2: And he would have been a free agent entering his

414
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 2: age twenty nine season. And then also on top of it,

415
00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 2: he got two eight million dollar club options, the last

416
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 2: of which is being picked up ahead of this season.

417
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 2: So Freddy Prawlter realistically had a seven year, thirty thirty

418
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 2: one and a half million dollar Does.

419
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 1: The contract like that not make you think he's more

420
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 1: inclined to take one if it's any sort of good,

421
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,240
Speaker 1: because he took a horrible one. That's why I think

422
00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 1: it's kind of the opposite.

423
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 2: I think that Freddie Perralta ensured himself basically thirty million,

424
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 2: fifteen million dollars in the bank. He got sixteen million

425
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:05,879
Speaker 2: more in the last two years. He's been pitching below

426
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,679
Speaker 2: market value. He's already been traded, So it's not like

427
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 2: he's comfortable with a family in one city because now

428
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,520
Speaker 2: he's he's already uprooted now ahead of the last year

429
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:15,359
Speaker 2: of the contract. So I think that I think a

430
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 2: guy in that situation might be more inclined to test

431
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:20,159
Speaker 2: the market. But also, like a in Freddie's position, like

432
00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 2: that extension was signed before he really actually became a

433
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:26,480
Speaker 2: full time starting pitcher. Yeah, like that was a really

434
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 2: good risk to take by the Brewers. A team that

435
00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 2: kind of needs to take those kinds of risk was young,

436
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 2: with young players. He does not really risk fifteen million

437
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:35,440
Speaker 2: dollars or five years worst case snari he would have

438
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,199
Speaker 2: been one of the best relievers in baseball. But now

439
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 2: I think that that guaranteed money.

440
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 1: In the pocket. I think a guy like Freddy might

441
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,800
Speaker 1: want to test the open market. I mean, is he

442
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 1: right now? He'd probably get what c smackx free money?

443
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:47,720
Speaker 3: Right?

444
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 2: I think probably a touch less I don't know, I

445
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 2: think that see maybe a ce smack Frea's basically something

446
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:57,560
Speaker 2: around seven for two hundred, yeah, a hair below seven

447
00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,119
Speaker 2: for one ninety seven one eighty. But also like if

448
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,160
Speaker 2: that gets it done, Like I, I would be happy

449
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 2: to sign him to that. Like I just really pelt

450
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:06,320
Speaker 2: again to keep talking about top twenty five twenty pitcher

451
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:08,960
Speaker 2: in the league. Looks like he's figuring it out, getting better.

452
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,920
Speaker 2: But I also did some research into his agency ACES,

453
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 2: which is based in Brooklyn, So maybe I'll knock on

454
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 2: their door sometime this week. But they have players on

455
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,960
Speaker 2: their logan Webb signed the relative a team friendly extension.

456
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:23,359
Speaker 2: Nathan Valdi seems like a guy who prioritized staying in

457
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:26,840
Speaker 2: the same place. Then also you have Gab spier Yandy Diaz,

458
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 2: Ryan O'Hearn. I just again, it's kind of a chaos agency.

459
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:31,840
Speaker 2: It doesn't seem like it's one of the biggest out there.

460
00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 2: But let's see who's this one. This is oh, Colin Holderman,

461
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:39,359
Speaker 2: former Mets something there, But this is a it's not

462
00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,200
Speaker 2: it's not like we're working with Scott Boris here again,

463
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:42,480
Speaker 2: this might be the case of death. He might he

464
00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:44,639
Speaker 2: might sign with Boris later this week because I said this,

465
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 2: but that's kind of there.

466
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,879
Speaker 1: We got got I don't know. I put the chance.

467
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 1: I put like twenty five to seventy five extension. Yeah,

468
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 1: I think there's a chance. I think there's a better

469
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 1: chance than some of the other big name starting pitchers

470
00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:59,920
Speaker 1: if they were to be traded to this team, just because, again, Fred,

471
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,880
Speaker 1: he's not probably gonna be the number one top paid

472
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:06,359
Speaker 1: picture of all time type stuff. But at the same time,

473
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 1: I'm okay with it too. It's okay. This was the

474
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 1: price that you had to pay to go get a

475
00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:14,240
Speaker 1: top starting pitcher that the Mets desperately needed. And we

476
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,159
Speaker 1: also got the kicker in Tobias Myers. So do we

477
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,879
Speaker 1: want to talk about little Tobias Myers action here before

478
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 1: we start talking about what we gave up? Yeah, out

479
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 1: for that. Why not talk about Tobias Myers, Because mean,

480
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,400
Speaker 1: this is the guy you see, my guy. I don't

481
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,399
Speaker 1: know if he's my I loved him for a while.

482
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 1: I feel like you every time we do a Brewer's Preview,

483
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,200
Speaker 1: I feel like you bring up Tobias Meyers some way, somehow.

484
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,879
Speaker 2: I like Tobias Myers because when he broke on this

485
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,280
Speaker 2: scene last year, it was like he was just such

486
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:41,359
Speaker 2: a good scoop and fantasy baseball because he was so

487
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 2: under the radar. He was a twenty six year old

488
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,639
Speaker 2: rookie who threw ninety three miles an hour, and you're like, oh, like,

489
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 2: let's let hang with Tobias Myers. Wasn't he also traded

490
00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:50,320
Speaker 2: for Junior Camonaro if I remember right.

491
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:51,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I believe he was a part of the Junior

492
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 1: Camonaro trade. I didn't even know if he was a

493
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:55,879
Speaker 1: part of it that.

494
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:57,240
Speaker 2: I feel like that might have been something like a

495
00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,520
Speaker 2: one for one back in the day or something like that.

496
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:03,199
Speaker 2: But Tobias Myers is kind of what you want to

497
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 2: trade like this as big league depth. And we had

498
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 2: the report from our guy Michael Marino early in the

499
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:13,480
Speaker 2: day that brace was something like sprot and Jet Williams

500
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:15,560
Speaker 2: for Freddie Peralta. But that's thought it was too much

501
00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:17,440
Speaker 2: and they wanted more. So it seems like the day

502
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 2: was spent haggling over what the piece was that was

503
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:21,760
Speaker 2: coming back from the Brewers to the Mets. I'm sure

504
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 2: we started with Trevor McGill, like I bet a lot

505
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 2: of us would have wanted, but that was probably a

506
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:25,240
Speaker 2: pipe dream.

507
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 1: Guys like Avenue Rebay, they weren't going anywhere.

508
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,199
Speaker 2: You probably asked for Guys like Robert Gosser and Logan Henderson,

509
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 2: They're not going anywhere, and then it probably came down

510
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 2: to something like Tobias Myers or Chad Patrick.

511
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 1: And maybe it was the Brewers telling you you get

512
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:37,640
Speaker 1: one of these two guys.

513
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:38,879
Speaker 2: Maybe it's the Bruce telling you this is the guy

514
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,200
Speaker 2: you're getting, Like maybe Quinn Priester was involved in there

515
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 2: somewhere along the line.

516
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:43,640
Speaker 1: But this is this Brewers team.

517
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,480
Speaker 2: Had so much pitching depth that they don't really they're

518
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:49,160
Speaker 2: basically they traded their first and their ninth starting pitchers in.

519
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 1: This deal, and they're gonna get Brandan Sprot who will

520
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:55,639
Speaker 1: be good for them. It's like the Sprot Myers trade. Like,

521
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:58,680
Speaker 1: I think Sprot is better, but I think that for

522
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:00,919
Speaker 1: this Mets team, in the way that this Mets team fits,

523
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,679
Speaker 1: Myers might be a better fit for this team, just

524
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 1: because he does have that relief experience already and has

525
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 1: shown that he can pitch in relief, which seems to

526
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:10,120
Speaker 1: be what his role is going to be a long

527
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:12,560
Speaker 1: reliever somewhat.

528
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,359
Speaker 2: But I also think that Sprot was probably the guy

529
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 2: that Brewers wanted, Like I think, in the role this season,

530
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:22,720
Speaker 2: there's a good chance that Sproke could have been even

531
00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,520
Speaker 2: a better version of Tobias Myers, but he probably did.

532
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,160
Speaker 1: Need a little bit more seasoning, like Sproches.

533
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:29,280
Speaker 2: Oh, now we're gonna talk about all these guys in

534
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 2: one shot, like spro Chet, Tobias Myers.

535
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:31,760
Speaker 1: Like Tobias Meyers.

536
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:33,440
Speaker 2: The fact that he jumped on the scene and had

537
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:35,159
Speaker 2: that great season two years ago, I think that gave

538
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 2: him a lot of mass appeal. But I do think

539
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,600
Speaker 2: that he's not He's not like a one hundred and

540
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 2: forty inning, twenty five star three er guy.

541
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:43,520
Speaker 1: I know we're close to that.

542
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:45,880
Speaker 2: But the biggest thing with Tobias Myers, I'm sure why

543
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,200
Speaker 2: the Matt's Davis starts target him is that he still

544
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:50,399
Speaker 2: has the minor league option so he can spend this

545
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:54,040
Speaker 2: season as being the swing guy and five years of

546
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,720
Speaker 2: team controlling this guy. He's a free agent thirty one,

547
00:21:57,640 --> 00:21:59,240
Speaker 2: we're gonna be thirty five years old, and this guy's

548
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,640
Speaker 2: a free agent age check from Mark and James there.

549
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,400
Speaker 2: But like that's there was just a lot of good

550
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,360
Speaker 2: specs about Tobias Myers, and again, I think he still

551
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:09,120
Speaker 2: has plenty of upside. It's like it's like a back

552
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:10,720
Speaker 2: in rotation start there. One hundred percent of.

553
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 1: That definitely now to talk about Sprote of course, someone

554
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 1: that we were talking about for so long on this team.

555
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:18,360
Speaker 1: We finally got to see him get called up last year.

556
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,480
Speaker 1: Throws hard. I mean, it's a good move for the Brewers,

557
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:23,600
Speaker 1: but obviously for the Mets to bring in a picture

558
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 1: of Freddy Palter's caliber, you were gonna have to move

559
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:30,680
Speaker 1: on from one of the starting pitch prospects. And even

560
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:32,880
Speaker 1: at the beginning of the year when we talked about it,

561
00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:34,959
Speaker 1: we were saying, how I think I think I might

562
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,320
Speaker 1: have even saider you. One of us said, Sproton Jet

563
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 1: gets the deal done, and that was just for Freddy,

564
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,200
Speaker 1: so to get another picture with it helps. And those

565
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:46,119
Speaker 1: guys are both such Brewers. It's amazing how much of Brewers.

566
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:49,159
Speaker 2: Both these guys are spro just because you see breaking

567
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 2: ball quality and the guy's a horse like brandons pro

568
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:54,360
Speaker 2: still does so many things that you want your prospect

569
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:56,560
Speaker 2: pitcher to do, Like he threw one hundred and sixteen

570
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 2: innings and across all minor league levels twenty twenty four,

571
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:01,160
Speaker 2: and then he threw a hundred forty three last year,

572
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:02,959
Speaker 2: Like this is a guy that is ready to come

573
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 2: up and pitch if the time comes. But also he

574
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,359
Speaker 2: didn't get any swings to miss on a fastball despite

575
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,640
Speaker 2: the fact that it's sat ninety seven miles an hour.

576
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:11,920
Speaker 2: But if there's any organization I think that can do

577
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:13,600
Speaker 2: something with him. I think it's a team like the

578
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,640
Speaker 2: Brewers that like, oh good, Sinker could slide the good curveball,

579
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:18,880
Speaker 2: like you can kind of make him a super charge

580
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:19,640
Speaker 2: version of Quinn Priest.

581
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,359
Speaker 1: The honestly, yeah, without a doubt having that Velo's always

582
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,359
Speaker 1: just That's the thing that always made us super excited

583
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,399
Speaker 1: about Sprot was that that fastball was so so big,

584
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,399
Speaker 1: and you just sometimes you can't get a guy who

585
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,399
Speaker 1: throws ninety eight miles an hour consistently, and then to

586
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 1: get Jet Williams, who fits the under five foot ten

587
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 1: Brewers so well, we stand on our short kings. Sad

588
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:39,480
Speaker 1: to see Jet go. Friend of the podcast, been on

589
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 1: a couple times, followed us. We got to hang out

590
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 1: with him the day that he signed the contract with

591
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:46,359
Speaker 1: the New York Mets. Genuinely such a nice guy. But

592
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 1: even the day that he signed that contract, me and

593
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,160
Speaker 1: you looked at each other like, he's never gonna play

594
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,680
Speaker 1: a game for the Mets. There's almost no way, no,

595
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 1: probably not.

596
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 2: It kind of felt like that the league was souring

597
00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,680
Speaker 2: on Jet because it felt like he kind of would

598
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 2: have been traded by now maybe David Cerns just knew.

599
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:04,240
Speaker 1: That Matt Ardol and the Brewers would have wanted him.

600
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:05,800
Speaker 2: But he's also the kind of guy where like if

601
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 2: brandonsbro can find any kind of different variation of his

602
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,879
Speaker 2: fastball shape or just like gain the two rugs of command,

603
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 2: like bang, he's probably an it, like at least a

604
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 2: number three major league star there, and the guys are

605
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 2: really horse throws hard. If Jet Williams can just find

606
00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:21,639
Speaker 2: like a bit more of that contact, like, he's like

607
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 2: he's a better version of Caleb Durbins to me, who

608
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:25,600
Speaker 2: they just went out and got last season for a

609
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 2: similar one year of Devin Williams.

610
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 1: Like this is what they Brewers do. Yeah, I gotta

611
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:33,479
Speaker 1: imagine too again that they love the positional flexibility too.

612
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 1: A Jet shortstop, second base, centerfield. I'm sure he could

613
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 1: play third base in a pinch street we could play

614
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 1: play left, yeah, play left, play right. Whatever it is. Like,

615
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:42,359
Speaker 1: he's a good athlete. He's a good player, puts good

616
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:44,920
Speaker 1: contact on the ball when he makes contact, gets on base.

617
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 1: Jet's a great player. It just it never really seemed

618
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 1: like there was a path to actually being in the

619
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 1: majors with the Mets outside of filling in a role,

620
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 1: and especially when you trade for Simon who's here for

621
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:56,800
Speaker 1: three years, with all the other guys that are behind

622
00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,440
Speaker 1: still too. And I do think aj Ewan kind of

623
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 1: killed jet Wi a little bit doing this.

624
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:04,320
Speaker 2: Organ I was literally about to say that, I think

625
00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 2: now the world is like catching up to a j

626
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 2: Ewing a bit he was inside. I think it was

627
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 2: at number eighty one or eighty three on Baseball America's

628
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:13,919
Speaker 2: Top one hundred that coincidentally came out on Wednesday. If

629
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:15,920
Speaker 2: you think it had Jet around forty one, is sprot

630
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,960
Speaker 2: in the sixties or seventies. But you know, Baseball perspective

631
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:20,680
Speaker 2: has been talking about Youwing for a long time. We've

632
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,320
Speaker 2: been shouting at Youing since the midway point of this

633
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:24,240
Speaker 2: past season.

634
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,480
Speaker 1: Even when we drafted. Remember we're like one of the

635
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:28,160
Speaker 1: guys to watch out. We got a high school guy

636
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,399
Speaker 1: late something else funny. It's true about Ewing, but was

637
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,280
Speaker 1: also true about Jet and Sprote. They were not David

638
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:34,200
Speaker 1: Searns draft picks.

639
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,120
Speaker 2: So I think it's relevant that it was the prior

640
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:37,960
Speaker 2: regime that brought those guys in. Again, same thing true

641
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:39,440
Speaker 2: for aj Ewing, But I think there's been a lot

642
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 2: more developmental helium on aj Ewing, who probably is he

643
00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:46,199
Speaker 2: probably probably better defender than Jet and I think he

644
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:49,040
Speaker 2: might I can play that more. Yeah, and he's just

645
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:51,880
Speaker 2: I mean again as a short king, he's just he's

646
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 2: just not Yeah, he's just he's a little bit more

647
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:55,639
Speaker 2: of a Major League Baseball player archaet type.

648
00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:57,920
Speaker 1: Yes, it's I mean, it's tough to project those guys

649
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 1: always is no, but just there's the Mets are kind

650
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,200
Speaker 1: of it seems like there's what we've been talking about

651
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,440
Speaker 1: for you kind of years now, that there's so much

652
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 1: confidence in the players development machine that's being built with

653
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 1: this organization and the players that are already in the

654
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,679
Speaker 1: upper miners like knocking on the door, you kind of

655
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,000
Speaker 1: have to allow the space for some of these guys

656
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,840
Speaker 1: to get to the next levels and perform like you want,

657
00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:20,840
Speaker 1: runway for a guy like aj Ewing this year to

658
00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:22,320
Speaker 1: get to Triple A and be able to do things

659
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 1: like you wanted some guys like you know, Boy Santucci,

660
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:27,600
Speaker 1: Zach Thorton to like get to Triple A Sericus year

661
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 1: and be able to pitch and have like a rotation spot.

662
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,679
Speaker 1: Like when the farm systems is good, you have to

663
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:34,439
Speaker 1: start trading guys because you need the next group of

664
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,040
Speaker 1: guys to get their shot. It's a great problem to have.

665
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 1: I love being like Dy, not not enough room for

666
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:42,760
Speaker 1: our guys in Triple A right now that are deserving

667
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:45,800
Speaker 1: of being that high, and then trading those guys that

668
00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 1: were ahead of them to go get premier players like

669
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:49,640
Speaker 1: we do with Freddy Peralta.

670
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:52,880
Speaker 2: And I'm not good. I cannot say that this wasn't

671
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:54,000
Speaker 2: a big package you give up.

672
00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:57,080
Speaker 1: It's great, It's great for the Brewers, No great try

673
00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:58,399
Speaker 1: for Blewis. I think they made that really well. And

674
00:26:58,400 --> 00:26:59,480
Speaker 1: I think the reason you get a guy like.

675
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,639
Speaker 2: Freddy Pearl, who I'm sure a lot of different teams

676
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:03,920
Speaker 2: in this league were vying for, is because you gave

677
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,440
Speaker 2: them a package of multiple players that they really wanted. Like,

678
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:09,240
Speaker 2: it's nice for us that we had the prospects to

679
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:11,040
Speaker 2: do that without taking a big hit to our system.

680
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:13,760
Speaker 2: So Kylie McDaniel had a tweet that he was finalizing

681
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,119
Speaker 2: his top hundred list and his farm system rankings. The

682
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,480
Speaker 2: Mets were number one before this trade, and they dropped

683
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:20,920
Speaker 2: the number six after losing these two. The Brewers went

684
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,520
Speaker 2: from six to number one in acquiring these two places.

685
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:25,479
Speaker 1: So funny. Yeah, I mean, like the Brewers farm systems

686
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 1: absolutely loaded as well. Like there's a lot of mental

687
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,960
Speaker 1: living field guys in the Brewers organization, Like just what

688
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,160
Speaker 1: the good thing is that Jet has a much clearer

689
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:35,960
Speaker 1: path to the majors right now because they don't really

690
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:39,800
Speaker 1: have an actual shortstop and Joey Ortiz. But yeah, it's

691
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,200
Speaker 1: just we we got guys. Now, we have dudes.

692
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:44,399
Speaker 2: Now this major league's lineup right now, you look at

693
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,639
Speaker 2: this and we have dudes everywhere. Like this is a

694
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,840
Speaker 2: very very fun moment in time for this Mets team,

695
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:51,800
Speaker 2: for a lot of the Mets fans that possibly lost

696
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 2: some faith, possibly wavered hope wise, like you're now, I

697
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 2: think right now we're kind of, hands down the second

698
00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:58,640
Speaker 2: best team in the National League.

699
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 1: Is that crazy thing to say? I don't think it is.

700
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:02,520
Speaker 1: People are gonna clip that and that's fine, and maybe

701
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:04,680
Speaker 1: we'll clip it and post on social media. Maybe that's

702
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:06,639
Speaker 1: a little hitt and hint there someone out there. But

703
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:10,200
Speaker 1: like this team, I put out the tweet, I'm like

704
00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:13,119
Speaker 1: whispers like, this Met's roster looks really good. Like I

705
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,200
Speaker 1: think this Mets team looks awesome. And while it doesn't

706
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,080
Speaker 1: have a lot of familiar faces, and that might be

707
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:21,160
Speaker 1: scary to some people because we saw some fan favorites leave.

708
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 1: You look around the field, they got more athletic a ton.

709
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 1: They might be a better hitting team. They might be

710
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 1: much better hitting. Who knows, we'll find out what that

711
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 1: looks like. Pitching wise, we added a starting pitcher to

712
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:35,439
Speaker 1: a rotation that was underperforming last year. But a lot

713
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 1: of but some of the underlying stuff also tells you

714
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 1: that the Mets enough, Yeah, we're good enough, and that

715
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:41,480
Speaker 1: the defense kind of lets them down. The Mets got

716
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,560
Speaker 1: better defensively, no doubt. It feels like we're putting together

717
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:45,840
Speaker 1: a much much better.

718
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 2: Baseball team, a much more cohesive baseball team. Seems like

719
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:51,080
Speaker 2: a much more coherent baseball team. Seems like a baseball

720
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,240
Speaker 2: team that's much more built in Davis Saron's identity and

721
00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:56,160
Speaker 2: his vision. And I think that was a big thing. Like,

722
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:58,760
Speaker 2: it's kind of crazy how many different players around this

723
00:28:58,760 --> 00:28:59,360
Speaker 2: team right now.

724
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,080
Speaker 1: Oh, into my dad, I was like, go around the

725
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,480
Speaker 1: go around the field, and I'm like, there's so many

726
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 1: new guys just did in the.

727
00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:08,880
Speaker 2: Lineup five There's probably going to be five new everyday

728
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,560
Speaker 2: players in the lineup on opening day, counting Carson, Benjer Whinever.

729
00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:13,000
Speaker 2: He starts to get that full time role, and it

730
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:14,120
Speaker 2: will have to be in the first two weeks in

731
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,080
Speaker 2: the season if you want him to qualify for a

732
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:19,320
Speaker 2: PPI pick. If he and over his rookie contract gets

733
00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:21,240
Speaker 2: the Rookie of the Year stuff, MVP votes this and that.

734
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,560
Speaker 2: The other thing, Freddie Pearl's at the top of the rotation.

735
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:25,160
Speaker 2: Remember we got Davin Williams and Luke Weaver.

736
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,280
Speaker 1: That feels like a time ago, like so long ago.

737
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:30,200
Speaker 2: This whole team is different right now, and I don't

738
00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:33,239
Speaker 2: think that's a bad thing considering what happened last year,

739
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 2: how it ended. But we've got a this is a

740
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:37,880
Speaker 2: ball club right now, and I'm pumped about that.

741
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:39,920
Speaker 1: I'll tell you it's really nice that on January and

742
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:43,720
Speaker 1: twenty second, when we're recording this that my biggest concern

743
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 1: right now with this team is the bullpen. I love

744
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:48,959
Speaker 1: that the bullpen is the biggest question mark because we

745
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,120
Speaker 1: know that there's gonna be some chaos there's gonna be

746
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,000
Speaker 1: some nonsense that goes on. There's a bunch of young

747
00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 1: arms that can fill in this bullpen and also shot.

748
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:58,400
Speaker 1: David Stearns said it early on in his Mets tenure.

749
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:00,400
Speaker 1: The bullpen at the beginning of the year is not

750
00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:02,320
Speaker 1: what the bullpen will look like at the midpoint. It's

751
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:03,520
Speaker 1: not like what it will look like at the end

752
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:04,720
Speaker 1: of the year. Is not what it'll look like in

753
00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 1: the playoffs. And just because this bullpen might not look

754
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,720
Speaker 1: fully complete right now the trade deadline, the Mets are good.

755
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:12,800
Speaker 1: They can go out and grab a bunch of guys. Again,

756
00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 1: Look how many guys were available last year that we're

757
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 1: leavers are traded all over them. I mean the Mets.

758
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:20,400
Speaker 1: We picked the wrong ones, but like there were so

759
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,280
Speaker 1: many guys available, we could have had Dave Bednar. Imagine

760
00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 1: him in this bullpen. Like those guys will be available again.

761
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 1: We'll be able to find those people on the market.

762
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:30,960
Speaker 1: That's a good That's if you're gonna have any question

763
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,800
Speaker 1: mark about anything on an organization and a team, I

764
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:35,720
Speaker 1: think the bullpen is the one I feel most comfortable

765
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:36,520
Speaker 1: about having.

766
00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:39,240
Speaker 2: That and I think, funny enough, the way that the

767
00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,520
Speaker 2: Mets triple a rotation looks like it will line up

768
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 2: on opening day. I think it allows the fur again,

769
00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 2: like we kind of thought what happened was sprote a

770
00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:48,040
Speaker 2: lot of flexibility for some of these pitches to come

771
00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:49,560
Speaker 2: up and see what they could show in the bullpen,

772
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:52,480
Speaker 2: like Jonahtan Christian Scott are the obvious options. Same with

773
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 2: Obias Meyers getting him in this trade. But I do

774
00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 2: think you want to probably keep Tobias stretched out because

775
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:58,480
Speaker 2: it's just it is still such a good star. There's

776
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:00,360
Speaker 2: repertoire with a nice fast ball shape, but change up

777
00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:01,480
Speaker 2: a slider like a lot of stuff.

778
00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:03,680
Speaker 1: But I keep looking at this. You guys get this

779
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:05,880
Speaker 1: is and again once we hit the thirty minute Marketing Messed.

780
00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:08,400
Speaker 2: Up podcast gets a freaking out crazy. I'm looking at

781
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:11,479
Speaker 2: Jonathan Pataro and Justin hagen Man. I'm seeing it from

782
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,120
Speaker 2: those two guys around like you get. I could really

783
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:16,320
Speaker 2: find a world where those two guys are trusted Miller

784
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 2: relievers in August and we're not upset about it.

785
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,800
Speaker 1: Who's gonna be the Who's gonna be the guy off

786
00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:23,840
Speaker 1: the forty man For Freddy Pearlt And Tobias Myers, it's

787
00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:24,440
Speaker 1: a good question.

788
00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 2: Honestly, I have no idea. Let's see who we look

789
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:28,560
Speaker 2: at right now. I mean, let's just pull up the

790
00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:30,800
Speaker 2: forty men real quickly, and the Steven Aarris are also like,

791
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:33,080
Speaker 2: what do you think actually finishes off this roster? Like,

792
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:34,720
Speaker 2: how do you think this ends up?

793
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 1: I think that the Mets probably do go after And again,

794
00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 1: I know I said this is gonna make me violently depressed,

795
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:43,840
Speaker 1: but I do think like there's probably an Austin Hayes

796
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:46,560
Speaker 1: maybe in the realm, just like a right handed hitting

797
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 1: get depressed. Now, after we got Freddy Pearlton, Boba Schett

798
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:54,080
Speaker 1: and and and Luis Robert Robert, I said I was

799
00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:56,160
Speaker 1: gonna be violently depressed, But now it makes a lot

800
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:57,800
Speaker 1: more sense because we have all these other bats and

801
00:31:57,840 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 1: that guy can hit like eighth in this lineup, and

802
00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:02,040
Speaker 1: it allows Carson Bench to kind of have the platoon.

803
00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:04,440
Speaker 1: It probably is just gonna be Tyrone Taylor.

804
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:08,360
Speaker 2: It probably is a good idea to get in Austin Hayes,

805
00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:10,880
Speaker 2: but I do wonder if they would sacrifice the Tyrone Taylor.

806
00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 1: I think they still want that faster for defense. Yeah,

807
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:14,080
Speaker 1: like and.

808
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 2: Also like if if push does come to shove, and

809
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,120
Speaker 2: because you just want a right handed batter to pair

810
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:21,920
Speaker 2: with Carson Bench as he kind of goes backs a

811
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:25,360
Speaker 2: rookie season, but you also want some insurance in case

812
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 2: Carson Bench is not as ready as we expect.

813
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:31,200
Speaker 1: Sprot was on the forty man. I forgot Spirit was

814
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:32,880
Speaker 1: on the forty man. So Sprot was on the spot.

815
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:34,920
Speaker 1: And then probably Joey Gerber was the other one. I

816
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,920
Speaker 1: think I was thinking probably Joey Gerber or Joey Gerber.

817
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:41,680
Speaker 2: But it's I mean, like you just you probably want

818
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 2: a little bit of insurance for Carson Bench. Would you

819
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:46,760
Speaker 2: might be able to get to like March sixth and

820
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 2: be able to sign Austin.

821
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:50,120
Speaker 1: Hayes like you or yeah, there's no rush, I don't think.

822
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 2: Or when rosters start getting cut, you could just trade

823
00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:55,240
Speaker 2: someone in the complex could probably get a right handed

824
00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:55,840
Speaker 2: hitting outfield.

825
00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 1: Teams don't want right handed hitting outfielders. They probably get

826
00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:00,680
Speaker 1: those guys Johnny de Luca from the race at some point.

827
00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 1: I think I think he's way too good at defense.

828
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:03,640
Speaker 1: The race will not let him go this. You don't

829
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:05,920
Speaker 1: think when he has this much a team control left.

830
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,880
Speaker 2: But like this, I still also see the one move

831
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 2: I still do see them making is getting a veteran

832
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:15,120
Speaker 2: utility infielder. But I'm saying just I don't think man,

833
00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:18,360
Speaker 2: I think that because you have a fourge yourself, the

834
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 2: option of Ronnie and Mauricio, So I think you you'll

835
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:24,280
Speaker 2: let him get two months of at batch to start

836
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:27,920
Speaker 2: the season. You don't really have many infielders on the

837
00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:30,560
Speaker 2: Triple A team right now, at least in many middle infielders,

838
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:33,240
Speaker 2: like you're going to have Wyatt Young right now, and

839
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,520
Speaker 2: then they really don't have a Triple A shortstop like

840
00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:37,239
Speaker 2: I think. I guess Jackson Cluff is the guy that's

841
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:39,760
Speaker 2: listed right now in roster resource with DFA my boy

842
00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:40,520
Speaker 2: song Chang.

843
00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 1: I can't believe I just mattered his name. I killed him.

844
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:43,640
Speaker 1: He's got he got.

845
00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:47,840
Speaker 2: Killed for Luis garcias ros next. But yeah, probably no,

846
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 2: he's an a NRI.

847
00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 1: So I think that you might open up shortstop.

848
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 2: For Mauricio in the early part of the year. So

849
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 2: one would you do that if he could play shortstop.

850
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:57,360
Speaker 2: You look at the other guys in the league, like,

851
00:33:57,360 --> 00:33:59,960
Speaker 2: see he's got playing shortstop. Can we get your best

852
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,560
Speaker 2: reliever for him? But you also just he has to

853
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 2: get consisting at bat to some point. He basically hasn't

854
00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:06,320
Speaker 2: played baseball in three years like you need him to,

855
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,480
Speaker 2: and you saved the option last year probably to try

856
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 2: and pull that off this year. So I think in

857
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:14,120
Speaker 2: doing that, Gross you just signed like an I kaf

858
00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:16,759
Speaker 2: to be a runner and a great defender at every position.

859
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 1: Well the Mets. The Mets bench right now would be

860
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:24,040
Speaker 1: Terrenz Baty and probably still in the lineup right now

861
00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:27,239
Speaker 1: in opening day unless one of Batientos, one of bati

862
00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 1: Vento's is on the bench. So those are those two.

863
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,520
Speaker 1: Then you have Tyrone Taylor as the third outfielder. I

864
00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:35,560
Speaker 1: guess that does leave one spot with outfielder or fourth outfielder. Ye,

865
00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 1: my bad, and it's Mauricio unless he starts the year

866
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:40,640
Speaker 1: in triple A, which he probably will as the option

867
00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:42,279
Speaker 1: he probably does.

868
00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:44,640
Speaker 2: And then the other option is that you find it

869
00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 2: designated hither and ago. We're also assuming benches on the

870
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:48,840
Speaker 2: roster and we're saying these things, Yes, that's tr like,

871
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:51,480
Speaker 2: that's an assumption that we're making. But like Baty can

872
00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:54,080
Speaker 2: be the backup infielder, but you probably just need someone

873
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:56,359
Speaker 2: else in this organization that can play shortstop, like it'd

874
00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:58,759
Speaker 2: be unwise to go into the season with no other

875
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:04,040
Speaker 2: shortstops in the organization. Forgot about was a short stop

876
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:05,560
Speaker 2: and Marcus.

877
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:08,279
Speaker 1: It was the short stop last year I caught. It's

878
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:09,120
Speaker 1: the easy one to forget.

879
00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:11,080
Speaker 2: But David starns that we have four short stops in

880
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 2: the diamond most days now, which is such a hilarious line.

881
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 1: That it's a fun.

882
00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 2: I just I still see some kind of utilitian fielder

883
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 2: being brought in. And I really would not be surprised

884
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:25,760
Speaker 2: if if either Mark Viantas or David Peterson got moved.

885
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:29,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised either. I still I kind

886
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:31,799
Speaker 1: of still want Peterson, just because he really was so

887
00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:34,080
Speaker 1: good until the last month of the year and then

888
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,880
Speaker 1: he had the worst last month he possibly could have

889
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:38,799
Speaker 1: ever had, Like his e R was a low three

890
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 1: going into September and then all of a sudden he's

891
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:42,080
Speaker 1: like forgot how to pitch.

892
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:45,279
Speaker 2: He also, and this is completely not his fault in

893
00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:47,480
Speaker 2: any way, shape or form, but he is the last

894
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,560
Speaker 2: player connection I guess end Ryan Ritio because he's in

895
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:54,440
Speaker 2: his organization SAPONS, But to the Wilpon and Vanto's vis

896
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:57,440
Speaker 2: Pearson is the last pison is the last guy that

897
00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 2: played major League baseball while the Wolfpon's owned the team

898
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:02,359
Speaker 2: fair So like again, I'm not not saying anything, but

899
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:04,440
Speaker 2: like I could see, I don't know, not that that's

900
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:06,520
Speaker 2: going to impact anything, but for the for the stench

901
00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:08,640
Speaker 2: to fully be gone, it's like, I don't know, just

902
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:10,719
Speaker 2: Trey David to get back what you were giving up

903
00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:11,680
Speaker 2: with the Q penalties.

904
00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:14,399
Speaker 1: I think that's pretty good, though. That's about thirty five

905
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 1: minutes of talking about Freddy Perolta and the Mets and

906
