Mets played really well 5 00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 2: against San Diego Padres, something that we have been waiting 6 00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:35,080 Speaker 2: to see for months and months and months, and we 7 00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:36,199 Speaker 2: got little glimpses of it. 8 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:38,559 Speaker 1: But that was probably one of the better series the 9 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:38,959 Speaker 1: Mets have. 10 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 2: Played in the last couple months against a playoff team 11 00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:44,080 Speaker 2: in the San Diego Padres.

Jane, you were not 19 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,640 Speaker 2: in the ballpark for game three on Thursday, A rare, 20 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 2: rare day game miss for me, but it's okay. Tell 21 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:07,320 Speaker 2: me what it looked like at home, Joan Tongua on 22 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:08,440 Speaker 2: the mound looked awesome. 23 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 1: At the stadium, it looked great. 24 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,039 Speaker 3: But I do think oddly the game did kind of 25 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 3: swing on a dime on the Manny Machado get to 26 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 3: run out of second base play like that was it. 27 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 3: I feel like that was such a confidence building moment 28 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,480 Speaker 3: for Tom for the Mets. You really had the one, 29 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 3: you already had a lead at that point. 30 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 1: Wasn't around nothing? Yeah, because it was one nothing you 31 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 1: had the pet home runs. 32 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 3: I think that was just a time where off that 33 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 3: Ranger start, you felt like things could have possibly maybe 34 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 3: kind of not really but possibly. No, it was because 35 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,959 Speaker 3: that was that was top of the first, the double, 36 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 3: the Machado, Yeah, it was top of the first? 37 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,040 Speaker 1: Was it not? My game? Confused my innings? That was 38 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 1: top of the first? Mark was at the game he 39 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:42,960 Speaker 1: definitely did. 40 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 3: Wasn't paying close enough attention because I was right watching 41 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 3: on television that was top of the first inning. 42 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: Innings are fluid. 43 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 3: It wasn't one nothing yet because lots of home run 44 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 3: in the bottom of the first one four hundred fifty 45 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 3: feet absolute dismassal. But you did feel like after the 46 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 3: way the first inning of the last start got it 47 00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 3: was really important for Tom to just get through a 48 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 3: clean inning to be in the game and Mama Child 49 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 3: was just not hustling, really helped us get to that spot. 50 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: And after that, Jonah just absolutely rolled. Yeah. 51 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 2: I could not believe he got thrown out at second 52 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 2: base on that because that was the freest double, especially 53 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 2: with old Noodle arm Brandon Nemo out in left field, 54 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 2: who takes forever to get to the baseball, but clean 55 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 2: thirdle Lindor and Lindor made a quick throw then to 56 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:19,399 Speaker 2: McNeil at second base. 57 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 1: He was out by like ten feet. It was shocking 58 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 1: how out he was. 59 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 3: And we cut the third. That wasn't even to cut 60 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,079 Speaker 3: the second. That was just a heads up playing by Lindor. Yeah, 61 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 3: it was because see where he was another one you've 62 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 3: been at the game. He was standing in the in between. 63 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 3: There wasn't like he was in the outfield to cut second. No, 64 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 3: that's where he was to cut second one hundred. He 65 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 3: was definitely standing very much in between those two bases. 66 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 3: He was I think, I think this is what I'm 67 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 3: right now. Actually I missed him beginning, but he was 68 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 3: looking second the whole way. Play heads not worth not 69 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 3: where the heads up playing rasible And then it was 70 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 3: just so nice to see him attack after the last 71 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 3: Starvage on Tong. We were kind of like, not reluctant, 72 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 3: we were like a little disappointed that he didn't just 73 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 3: go after these guys in this game. He was just like, 74 00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:59,679 Speaker 3: here's the fastball, Try and fucking hit it because I 75 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 3: know you. It was two thirds of his total pitches. 76 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 3: Sixteen of his eighteen first pitches were fastballs, sixty percent 77 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 3: of those fastballs came in the zone, and nine of 78 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 3: his ten swings and misses came on that fastball. 79 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:09,799 Speaker 1: Yeah. 80 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,920 Speaker 2: No, it looked really good, especially because it feels like 81 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 2: at times that there's like he doesn't have the slider. 82 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 2: The curveball was better today, I feel like than it 83 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 2: had been in previous starts. But because he's so fastball 84 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 2: change up reliant, it feels like at times it's hard 85 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 2: for him to get those right handed batters out. But 86 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 2: that fastball is such a weapon today. Who's throwing it 87 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 2: a ton in the zone? I texted you, I'm like, 88 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 2: he doesn't really have an outpitch, like it's the fastball, 89 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 2: And then all of a sudden, the fastball just started 90 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 2: absolutely grooving. 91 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: But you're right, he has to throw it in his zone. 92 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 1: It's not a chase pitch. 93 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 2: He doesn't really have the chase stuff, which is interesting 94 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 2: to still get all those strikeouts. 95 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the difference of like delineation of terms. He 96 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 3: has the outpitch, doesn't have the chase pitch. Yes, because 97 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 3: the change up. Also, he threw more curveballs than change 98 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 3: ups at this Star, which I thought was interesting. But 99 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 3: the change up was the pitch he was throwing very 100 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 3: frequently in the strike zones. So again that's similar to that. 101 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 3: That's kind of what happened him last week geinst the Rangers. 102 00:03:58,200 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 3: I think that got him into trouble because when you 103 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 3: can look at the fastball and they could sit change up, 104 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 3: that's who you can just kind of do it. But 105 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 3: even looking back at the start, it was a lot. 106 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 3: It was a lot of bloops and flares, thinks and blinks, 107 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 3: like it just wasn't able to get ahead of these guys. 108 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 3: But here he was getting ahead. He was in control, 109 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 3: he was confident. He kind of seemed like he frustrated 110 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 3: these padres. Heead at the times. It did help that 111 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 3: we jumped out to the big league against Randy Vasquez, 112 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 3: but it was it was nice to see Tong pitch 113 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 3: so confidently and now you have three games and five 114 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 3: in six days, five three out of five games where 115 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 3: the rookies took them mound and all of them crushed. 116 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:30,839 Speaker 1: And that's so cool. 117 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 2: I saw a tweet it's seventeen innings consecutive from McLean 118 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 2: sprote Tong of zero ear in runs, Like that's that's 119 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 2: pretty damn good for three rookie pitchers, one of which 120 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 2: we thought maybe actually was gonna be on the major 121 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 2: league roster at some point this year, weirdly being Brandon 122 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 2: and Sprote. Now all three of them are here pitching 123 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 2: against good baseball teams and helping this team win massive, 124 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:52,599 Speaker 2: massive games. 125 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:53,839 Speaker 1: Also, I thought it was huge too. 126 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,280 Speaker 2: After the big inning against Randy Vasquez, Tom came out, 127 00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 2: shut down inning. We talk about this all the time. 128 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 2: One of the most important things you can do in 129 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 2: a game. Don't let them hang around, don't let them 130 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,040 Speaker 2: think they got a chance. And Jonah Tong I think 131 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:06,720 Speaker 2: went out and he might have struck out the side 132 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 2: or struck out two of the three guys. He was 133 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 2: just completely in control. We've now seen that a couple 134 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:13,599 Speaker 2: of times two from him. You get him a lead, 135 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:15,919 Speaker 2: he goes out there. He seems to understand what to 136 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:17,479 Speaker 2: do when pitching with the lead, which is you gotta 137 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 2: throw strikes. 138 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was Jackson Mayow, Ramon Loreano and Gavin Sheets 139 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 3: from Jackson. Merrill did hit a hot shot right in 140 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:24,919 Speaker 3: right to one, So let's start the ending that he 141 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 3: did catch the warning track. 142 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 1: But two strikeouts are big. 143 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,919 Speaker 3: And that beginning that we had in the third, that 144 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 3: was after they kind of got that cheap run on 145 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,279 Speaker 3: Fernando Tatis whe he hit the single after he almost 146 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 3: hit the home run. Yeah, and I don't know if 147 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,159 Speaker 3: you even called this in his dating but tong I'll 148 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 3: never say that Jonah Tongue is talking shit because he's 149 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 3: such a sweetheart. But he gave a little like he 150 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,039 Speaker 3: waved Tatis off because Tatists, I think thought that was home. 151 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:46,839 Speaker 3: He went like this once he looked at the board 152 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 3: and saw the replay, but that without making I think 153 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 3: a Tatis seemed like Alo kakiatter that he laced the 154 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:53,280 Speaker 3: single off the middle. 155 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 1: Tatisi saw him. Well, he hit the ball hard this game. 156 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, we smoked baseball, so he smoked a couple off 157 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,799 Speaker 2: the Tongue. It's only because they sacked the lineup with lefties, 158 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 2: especially when they did four lefties out of five batters 159 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 2: in a row. I think that does happen because they 160 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 2: do have a lot of good left handed hitters as well, 161 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 2: But I feel like for Tongs specifically, because of that 162 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 2: change up, you actually want to sack with righties here 163 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 2: because he doesn't have the slider, the pitch that breaks 164 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,479 Speaker 2: the other way, the change up breaking into right handed hitters. 165 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 2: You can just pull a baseball and look into it 166 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,040 Speaker 2: a little bit, kind of like you saw with Machado 167 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 2: who laced that one off the wall and Tatist who 168 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 2: was hitting him well. 169 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,239 Speaker 1: The two guys hit him well were the righties totally. 170 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,039 Speaker 3: And the funny thing about Tong is that he did 171 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 3: face both sides of the plate exactly the same. And 172 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 3: we kind of say this about him a lot because 173 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,280 Speaker 3: that release is so over the top and pure that 174 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 3: it's like this, this is gonna be real. It might 175 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 3: be way too med that he he's not really he 176 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 3: doesn't have handedness really meta way, but it's so up here. 177 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:47,040 Speaker 3: But like it's funny looking at the pitch percentages right 178 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 3: now in Savant sixty seven percent fastballs to ride these 179 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 3: sixty seven percent fast ball selefties fifteen percent curve balls 180 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 3: to ride these twenty percent curve ball celefties, twelve percent 181 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 3: change ups to write these twelve percent curve ball celefties, 182 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:58,839 Speaker 3: and that other six percent was made up in. 183 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:00,840 Speaker 1: Two slides to day through to right. Sounds like he's 184 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:01,279 Speaker 1: got a plan. 185 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 3: That does sound like he has a play, and he 186 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 3: did seem also in this game different from the. 187 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:07,359 Speaker 1: Last two starts. 188 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 3: The first start you kind of to throw away Joan 189 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,240 Speaker 3: Tong's philosity because you have so much adrenaline. Yes, and 190 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 3: then it was so weird also with the sitting for 191 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 3: a half hour between each of his first two winnings, 192 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 3: who scored so many runs, but then comparing this start 193 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 3: to the last two starts, he was down like a 194 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 3: full tick. So I think that was also probably some 195 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 3: kind of plan there to take a little bit off 196 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 3: this make sure you get those spots. Because he was 197 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 3: able to drive it inside on those lefties over and 198 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 3: over again, he kind of owned that side of the 199 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 3: play it against them that it feels like it just 200 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 3: helped a lie. It felt like he was very new control, 201 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 3: and this was a good little reminder that this is 202 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 3: still an elite, elite elite pitching prospect. 203 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, five innings, four hits, one run, none earned, eight strikeouts. 204 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 2: Fantastic job by Jonah Tongue today on the mound. 205 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 1: He was awesome, exactly what we needed. 206 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 2: And again also shout out the Padres for the way 207 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 2: that they put that lineup, because it was a little 208 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 2: dicey when we have to get three innings of relief 209 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 2: not named by Edwin Diaz. Four I know well edwind 210 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 2: As was the fourth. Oh he not named Edwin Dias 211 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 2: because the ninth. Not worried about that at all. Couldn't 212 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 2: have even thought about sweating a little bit in that 213 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 2: ninth inning. But when you have to get those other 214 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 2: three innings, it is tight with this Mets bullpen. But 215 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 2: shout out again the Padres. Having all those lefties Brooks 216 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,559 Speaker 2: Rally and Greg Rusto Soto got a little bit hairy. 217 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 2: I still don't trust him for a second to pitching 218 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 2: any sort of big games whatsoever. But Brooks Railies, the 219 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,200 Speaker 2: Brooks Railey is the man. This guy was available all 220 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 2: off season. During the season, Mets let him rehab, he 221 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 2: comes back and he has been the second best reliever 222 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 2: in this bullpen totally. 223 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 3: And another very calm, cool, easy inning from Tyler Rodgers. 224 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 3: So I think has been a little bit scapeg that 225 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 3: has a lot of people do chastise David Stars the 226 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 3: trade deadline and Rogers has been cash money. 227 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:46,319 Speaker 2: Yes, he's been so incredibly good. Seven pitch inning, it 228 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 2: was so so simple. Yeah, he does a lot of these. 229 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 2: He never comes back from multiple innings. 230 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 3: He owes very few, even more than the re out 231 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 3: appearance his whole career, because I've said that some people 232 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 3: have caught me up, but like he never ever goes 233 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 3: more in through reouts ever his whole career. But whatever, 234 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:03,320 Speaker 3: So it all worked, and I do applaud Carols Windoz 235 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 3: in this instance for taking Tongue out when he did agree. 236 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 3: Were texting kind of arguing about it. I thought he 237 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 3: was going to get one more inning, and the way 238 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 3: that bottom of the fifth began, it felt like he 239 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 3: was going to get that inning. But then the inning 240 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 3: got a little bit long. We had so he hit 241 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 3: the double, Nimmo walked, and I think that the length 242 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 3: of the inning may have done it. But also that 243 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 3: was just the top of the order, and we were 244 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 3: talking about how Wiltis had seen Tongue that game, so 245 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 3: him and Tongue Mendoz had a little bit of banter. 246 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 3: He seems like a little disappointed, but also in like 247 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 3: his happy, go lucky way that he didn't have to 248 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 3: go back to the mound and it was okay. 249 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 1: It worked the plan. 250 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 3: This was a game where you look at the way 251 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 3: we won and you're like, I could win like that 252 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 3: more often. 253 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 1: I would love to win like that more often. 254 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 2: Eighty pitches, five innings, a great start, not his falling 255 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 2: in't do anything wrong then have a chance to blow 256 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 2: the game. 257 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: The bullpen locked it down is kind of bad. 258 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 2: Well yeah, but like I mean, I guess that's that's 259 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,320 Speaker 2: kind of funny how that takes away their and run 260 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,679 Speaker 2: away from him as well. Yeah, he technically made two 261 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 2: errors because a wild pitch was charged to him too, 262 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 2: and that's her ends and the run doesn't want to 263 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 2: up counting. That's sacked for your get a guy on, 264 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 2: just let him, let him make an error so he 265 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 2: can score and it doesn't hurt yourrir at. Just Trevor 266 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:10,439 Speaker 2: battle with the ball into the stands. Offensively looked really 267 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 2: good this series. I think just as a whole we 268 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 2: can talk about it, but specifically in Game three, Pete 269 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 2: Alonzo's on absolute tear. I think he said a home 270 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 2: run in four straight games he's hit not just home runs, 271 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 2: they've been bombs. They've been absolute missiles. Since the walk 272 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 2: off home run four hundred and fifty feet on Game 273 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 2: three on Thursday, Nemo swinging the bat better, He's still 274 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 2: I'm becoming a little I've been a bit of a 275 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 2: Nemo hater recently, but I think my hate might fuel him. 276 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,199 Speaker 2: I don't actually hate Brandon Nimo, but I have hated 277 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:41,440 Speaker 2: the way that his season has gone, and there have 278 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:43,439 Speaker 2: been things that he's done that's bothered me. But when 279 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:44,959 Speaker 2: he's hitting the home runs like this, I can look 280 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,200 Speaker 2: past it because I go, Okay, you're actually doing something. 281 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,679 Speaker 2: I still hate how defensive every other swing feels. 282 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 3: Though left the lefty home run two, which was cool 283 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 3: because this was a situation where yesterday the game on Wednesday, 284 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:57,680 Speaker 3: the Padres is probably in Adrian Morriy home to face 285 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,199 Speaker 3: Nemo way. Also similarly to this, which you're on a 286 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 3: tongue opposite of how Carls Mendoza approached David Peuson's adim 287 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 3: And we'll talk to that, and we keep moving backwards 288 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 3: here talking about Game two, Mike shuld says, I'm stopping 289 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 3: the bleeding right now. I'm bringing in my best left 290 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 3: to the face, Brandon Nemo, and he's gonna get him out. 291 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: We're going to end this threat. 292 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,439 Speaker 2: And I do think a big reason why Schil does 293 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 2: that though, is the Padres bullpen is Yes, unbelievable. Anybody 294 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 2: who go to Yuki Matsu is their best worst guy, 295 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,440 Speaker 2: and he's like made like seventy appearances this year, like 296 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:25,200 Speaker 2: he's and he's. 297 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 1: Not that bad. 298 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 2: He's not good, but he's like Gregor Risoto in that 299 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,840 Speaker 2: like they don't really trust him, but he pitches the lefties. 300 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 3: I tell you funny sad about Paveta before we keep 301 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:36,559 Speaker 3: talking about the lineup. Yes, that game on Wednesday, that 302 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 3: was the first time Nick Paveta did not complete five 303 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 3: innings since June twentieth. Whoa, Yeah, so that was It 304 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 3: was an unconventionally quick hook for shild On Paveda. But again, 305 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 3: that was managing like a playoff game. I do think 306 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:50,719 Speaker 3: there were times a series Mendoza didn't and then I 307 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:51,680 Speaker 3: think it's game with tongue. 308 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 1: He did. 309 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 3: So it was nice to see Mendoza learn from mistake 310 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 3: and do something better about it, but like you said this, 311 00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:59,080 Speaker 3: the top of the old is just completely bludget. They 312 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 3: won this game, same thing the game we went on Tuesday. 313 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 3: Like those guys were the driving force. And that is 314 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:05,719 Speaker 3: as we said all season. This team will go as 315 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 3: far as those guys take them. 316 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 2: Yes, and offensively, we know this team should be good. 317 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 2: This team can be good. They have good teams. The 318 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,199 Speaker 2: team is good, especially when Juan Soto is swinging the 319 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 2: bat like he is, when Francisco Lindor is getting on 320 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 2: base as much as he has been recently, when Pete 321 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 2: Alonzo singing for power. It's a very very very difficult 322 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:26,719 Speaker 2: one two three to have At any moment, like when 323 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,840 Speaker 2: Lindor starts innings or even gets on base and then 324 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,319 Speaker 2: has Juan Soto and Pete Alonso up next, the opposing 325 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 2: pitcher has to be incredibly uncomfortable, especially because they also 326 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 2: can run when Lindor gets on base. 327 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 1: That's the added pressure of it too. 328 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 3: Yes, so they'll still another base in this game too. 329 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:43,719 Speaker 3: You know who started that big rally in the third 330 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 3: ending though, that is gonna be Cedric Monts, Cedric Mdalind's 331 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 3: baby getting handled from the nightthill. I know that he's 332 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 3: become the Met, the the pariah of this met season. 333 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 3: He had, he had a decent. 334 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 1: Series and after the Moones is playing better. 335 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 3: After that miserable at bat he had on Saturday against 336 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,680 Speaker 3: film Aton, it has been more tolerable games and this 337 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 3: entire team changes dramatically if he can literally just be average. 338 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 3: And I think we make a lot of really nice 339 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,320 Speaker 3: catching center field this series too. As much as everyone 340 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 3: on Earth and the Mets world just wants to despise 341 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 3: the guy, but it's helpful because this is a game 342 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:16,240 Speaker 3: where Daggie Metro night Game No. 343 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 2: Alva is in the lineup. He's been swinging the bat 344 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,320 Speaker 2: super well. Just new questions for you, James, what I 345 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 2: gotta interrupt you? What's Cedric Mullins ops over the last week? 346 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 2: Seven thirty three? Really close? I seven ninety four, okay, 347 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 2: pretty weakst whatever I know, but still that's better than 348 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 2: where it's something, which because the last fifteen games, which 349 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 2: includes the last seven. 350 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 1: Still six hundred eight, it's four something yea. 351 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,440 Speaker 2: So take week by week, we take it one day 352 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 2: at a time. Do you know what Cedric Mullins' real 353 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 2: first name is? 354 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 1: No boys, Oh Boyce Mullons Boyce Molins. I kind of 355 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:52,680 Speaker 1: like that. Two cool names, Boyce Cedric Mullins. That is cool. 356 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, Nemo, I'm happy to hit the home run because 357 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 3: I think we all remembered that throw home that that 358 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 3: was when of the worst there was I've ever seen 359 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:02,439 Speaker 3: in a Major League baseball field, since. 360 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,719 Speaker 2: I have no rotanercuff, and I could make that since 361 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:09,439 Speaker 2: Chris Davis take vaulty out of it, and then and 362 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:11,320 Speaker 2: Mundososa is the other worst one I've ever seen. 363 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: In the field. 364 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 2: There's a there's a great video on Made the Cut 365 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:15,839 Speaker 2: on YouTube for those of you have the time. It's 366 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 2: like four minutes, and he goes through a compilation of 367 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 2: how Chris Davis, Chris Davis of the Oakland A's the 368 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 2: guy who hit like two forty seven every year, had 369 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 2: the worst arm in the history of baseball. He Brandon 370 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 2: Nimmo gave him a run for his money in this game. 371 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 2: Chris Davis used to not be able to reach the 372 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 2: infield cutout from the outfield on throws he'd like bounce 373 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 2: cut off men. So not as bad as that, But 374 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 2: when that throw got made, I like was flabbergast. I 375 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 2: couldn't believe it. The way Britain Nimmo moves at times 376 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 2: is like he's not a human. It's like he's animatronic. 377 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 2: Like that throw was so robotic and so stiff. It 378 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 2: was honestly shocking that it even went that far because 379 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 2: he had nothing behind it. 380 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was quite bad. 381 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 3: But still, when all this said and done and I'm 382 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 3: twenty four home runs, eighty six RBIs seven seven the ops, 383 00:14:59,920 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 3: like it's going to be just another very fine season 384 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 3: for Brandon Nemo at the end of the day. 385 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 2: Yes, it's gonna say fine season. It's just it's so 386 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 2: weird that he's not on base guy anymore. 387 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 1: So bizarre. Yeah, I would like it if you could be. 388 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 3: But maybe it's just this is just part of him 389 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 3: adjusting his own game, moving from lead off to the 390 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 3: four spot, Like you should be a more aggressive hitter 391 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 3: when you're hitting fourth compared to when guys are on base. Yes, yeah, 392 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 3: your swing rates should rise, like you should be more 393 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 3: looking to drive the ball, drive and runs. I think 394 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 3: the fact that we could be looking at ninety our 395 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 3: best season for Brandon Nemo, that's kind of cool. So 396 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 3: the guy's hundred with RBI pete is over one hundred 397 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 3: and twenty RBIs again it's just as rump producers in 398 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 3: the middle. Like it does feel weird considering the shape 399 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 3: of our season, but now that we're at the spot 400 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 3: where we can kind of see the end of season 401 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 3: numbers and lines, Like if you would have just got 402 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 3: smacked in the head and March fifteens and woke up 403 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 3: right now, you'd be like, oh, all, this guy's a 404 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 3: pretty good seasons. 405 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 2: I think this is the exact top four that we said, 406 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 2: like before the season even started, that we like the 407 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 2: best Lindor Soto, Pete Nimo four, Remember when people like 408 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 2: Nimo four, that's crazy, can't hit fourth? 409 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 3: And then also Fiano's five six, Like I think that 410 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 3: all works together with eighty well with baby and Alvas 411 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:00,720 Speaker 3: right after that, like that's an eight, like that legitimate 412 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 3: eight to be And if Cedric Mullins is average, that's 413 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 3: a great nine. And then we flipp the whole thing 414 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 3: over and we have not good hitters in the line. 415 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 3: If Cedric Mullins is average, and that that's kind of 416 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 3: the beauty what this is. And I know, again the 417 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 3: rookies have been good. We're still going to get some 418 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 3: in consistency. I'm excited to talk about the piggybacking between 419 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 3: man I and Clay Holmes. Yeah, not excited to talk 420 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 3: about the massive regression of David Peterson. The bullpen still 421 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 3: sucks ass, But at the end of the day, like 422 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 3: we're just we're going as far as this lineup takes us. 423 00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 1: We need to do what the Dodgers do when he 424 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 1: sicks a game. Okay, so you you. 425 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 2: Talked about a little uh well, game two action David 426 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 2: Peterson Carls Mendoza opting to keep him into face Manny Machado. 427 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 1: I didn't love it. 428 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 2: I get why, but I also don't love it. And 429 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 2: that's that's where I kind of feel with this one. 430 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. 431 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 3: I wasn't mad in the moment, but I thought the 432 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 3: more I thought about it, even more so seeing pathetic 433 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 3: get pulled the next inding, I was like, damn, we 434 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 3: could have done that. But also in my head, I 435 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 3: was like, who's coming in? Yeah, I don't know who. 436 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 3: What right handed do you bring ds in? Like, what 437 00:16:57,640 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 3: right handed pitcher comes in? 438 00:16:58,960 --> 00:16:59,560 Speaker 1: Dom Hambill? 439 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 3: Who Tom hamml shot out helps us set the record 440 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:08,119 Speaker 3: for the most pitchers ever used in a single season, 441 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 3: forty six. That's going to be a piece of a 442 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,120 Speaker 3: video we're going to do whenever the season's over, name 443 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 3: every single picture that appeared in the game for the 444 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 3: mess this year. I'm excited for that one, but it's 445 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 3: just I while I was mad at the same time, 446 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 3: the way we got to that point in the inning was, 447 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 3: for lack of a better term, bullshit. Yeah he hit, 448 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 3: he gets up, Oh tow on Corona Worth. Coronerworth has 449 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 3: a classic Corona Worth at bat where he just fights 450 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:32,159 Speaker 3: and fights and fights and fights. Hits him with a 451 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,920 Speaker 3: fucking sinker that like that got elbow in. There's Corona 452 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 3: with being a ballplayer. And then we get two bunts, 453 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,160 Speaker 3: two bunts. The Padres bunt to twelfth and still wound 454 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 3: up with a grand slam. At least Diaz had a 455 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:45,200 Speaker 3: DC had a good bunt. Tatist walks after also piece 456 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 3: and kind of headed him one. 457 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 1: Two. 458 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 3: You still just missed a lot and walked him after that, 459 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,199 Speaker 3: and then Rise just drops down a perfect one. You 460 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 3: the way they were talking about in the broadcast. 461 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 1: I'm glad. 462 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,880 Speaker 2: I'm glad I wasn't listening to it that in touch 463 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:01,639 Speaker 2: because even at the bets today, Louis Rice came up 464 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:03,640 Speaker 2: to the plate and they were like, Oh, I mean, 465 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 2: this guy's just a hit machine.

No one's gonna 480 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 2: no one's gonna reach out to him, and it's gonna 481 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 2: be April first, and it's gonna be like what team 482 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 2: is Luise RII is on? Or there's gonna be a 483 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,480 Speaker 2: weird team like the Angels that's just like seven for 484 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 2: one hundred million, and you're like, what the. 485 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,400 Speaker 3: Angel should make him a cornerstone that's actually a good point. 486 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 1: They're going to they're going to pay him. I hope 487 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:52,720 Speaker 1: you know the hm shanual platoony. 488 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,680 Speaker 2: You know who should actually pay him, truthfully, Colorado Rockies. 489 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:58,639 Speaker 1: He'll he might have four hundred there, three thousand in 490 00:18:58,680 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame there. 491 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 2: They should be all over him. If there was one 492 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:03,640 Speaker 2: guy they ever spend money on, it's Louis Rise. But yeah, 493 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:06,200 Speaker 2: he is gonna have a weird free agency because it's 494 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,840 Speaker 2: it's gonna be a real, a real test of how 495 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 2: organizations think and feel. That being said, we probably have 496 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,680 Speaker 2: gone too far the opposite direction death Louise Rise. 497 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:16,879 Speaker 1: He is totally a major leaguer. He is fine. I 498 00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 1: want him hitting eighth or ninth on my team. 499 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 2: I don't want him second getting a bats ahead of 500 00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 2: Manny Machado and Jackson Marrow and Ramon Loreano and guys 501 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 2: like that. But he is He's on a on a 502 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,920 Speaker 2: good team like the Dodgers would love him playing second 503 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 2: base in that lineup. 504 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 3: I don't want to spend too much this episode doing 505 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:33,440 Speaker 3: the Luisa Rise discourse. But the only thing if he 506 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:35,159 Speaker 3: could either run or field like he would be a 507 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 3: highly valuable player. Yes, he is a good hitter. He 508 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 3: just can't do anything else, but you contact hitter. Yeah, 509 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 3: but that's he's still a good hit at the end 510 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:41,959 Speaker 3: of day. 511 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 1: You call him a good hit or a bad hitter, 512 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 1: I'd call him a hitter. I wouldn't. I'd call him neither. 513 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 1: I wouldn't. 514 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:48,200 Speaker 2: I wouldn't be in any conversation because when there are 515 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,400 Speaker 2: actually people like Wan Soto or Jodan Alvarez or Aaron 516 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:53,959 Speaker 2: Judger shohe those are good hitters. 517 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:55,240 Speaker 1: Those are good hitters. 518 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,119 Speaker 3: It's I mean, I don't know, like Luisa Rise if 519 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 3: he has send fifty ops next year, you surprised. 520 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:00,879 Speaker 1: No, not at all. 521 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 2: I mean he's not seven oh eight, seven to ten 522 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 2: right now. Like I'm saying it's a bad season for him. 523 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:05,440 Speaker 2: I think next season has a good season to poss 524 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 2: back up. But again that don't want to do any 525 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 2: more less discourse. This game was again frustrating because we've 526 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 2: now gotten to the end of the I'm not gonna 527 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,200 Speaker 2: say the end of the David p Is experience for 528 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,720 Speaker 2: this year, but it has gone so far in the 529 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:20,440 Speaker 2: wrong direction so quickly. The second half of the arras 530 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:22,879 Speaker 2: almost five is four point eighty six. Yeah, around the 531 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 2: years three to nine to eight. 532 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, Decomo tweeted that thing that last seven starts the 533 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 3: ra six and a half. It's just not it's just 534 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:31,159 Speaker 3: very clear is not in a good spot. And the 535 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,159 Speaker 3: things that he was so good at earlier this season, 536 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,640 Speaker 3: which was kind of placing balls in the different quadrants, 537 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:38,200 Speaker 3: making sure he's mixing up the sequencing, keeping guys off balance, 538 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 3: putting the sinkers in the right spots, He's not really 539 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 3: doing any of that right now. Bad misses with the 540 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:44,199 Speaker 3: curve ball, it's some bad misses with the slither. The 541 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 3: sinkers are just hes kind of just seemed like he 542 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 3: wants to just get them in the zone rather spot 543 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 3: them anymore, and stuff's just not good enough for him 544 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 3: to do that. So it's a it's not a great situation, 545 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 3: and it's we're in a spout. I'm rapidly losing confidence 546 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 3: what he can do next week hopefully the week after that. 547 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 2: They almost man, he doesn't have an option anymore, right, no, 548 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 2: no more. He might need like they can't do it though, 549 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 2: because the playoffs, I'm like, he needs to like skip 550 00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:11,919 Speaker 2: one start truthfully, probably because he's just he's thrown more 551 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 2: innings than he ever has and that feels like it's 552 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,200 Speaker 2: the clear and obvious reason why all this is happening. 553 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 2: That being said, at some point he would have to 554 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:22,439 Speaker 2: throw more innings than he ever had before, and for 555 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 2: him to drop off this much is a big, like 556 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 2: you said, loss of faith in him, because I thought 557 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:29,199 Speaker 2: I thought he had a little more dog than that, 558 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 2: And right now it feels like there's just there's no confidence, 559 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 2: along with the fact that he's exhausted from throwing more 560 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 2: than he ever has. He was such a horse for 561 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 2: us in the beginning, but now he is he is 562 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 2: not trusted at all. 563 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 3: So last year, with the playoffs included, Peterson threw one 564 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:48,200 Speaker 3: hundred and thirty three and one thirds innings. This year 565 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 3: is at one hundred and sixty seven at third. Yeah, 566 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,879 Speaker 3: that's not in un reasonable Joe, not at all. Also, 567 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 3: the funny thing about Peterson is that right now, compared 568 00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,119 Speaker 3: to last season, all of his r right predictors are 569 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,120 Speaker 3: in a much better spot. He has a lower fifth thing, 570 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 3: he has a lower Sierra like he in terms of 571 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 3: what he allegedly deserves, is better. And I think it's 572 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 3: a funny thing. It's a funny thing to remember about 573 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:12,679 Speaker 3: David Pewston. We always talk about the fact that someone 574 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 3: like him will just always not really his fault, but 575 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:17,879 Speaker 3: just kind of the way things work, will always be 576 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:20,399 Speaker 3: a little bit less reliable year over year because he 577 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 3: doesn't strike many guys out. 578 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:23,160 Speaker 1: He walks a few too many. 579 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 3: So just with more balls in play, you invite a 580 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 3: little bit more chaos and you have to rely a 581 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 3: little bit more on good luck. When you get good luck, 582 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:31,679 Speaker 3: you're great, and when you get the bad luck, you're not. 583 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 3: I think that some of what's happening with David Peterson 584 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 3: I think is bad luck. I don't think all of 585 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 3: it is, but I do think there happening a lot 586 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 3: of balls in play that were finding gloves are no 587 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 3: longer finding gloves. 588 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:41,399 Speaker 4: Well. 589 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 3: At the same time, he's missing fewer bads and he's 590 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 3: clearly missing many more spots. 591 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, and they're also just they're hitting the ball harder 592 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 2: too against them this year as well, like more consistently 593 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 2: hitting the ball hard. It's a small jump, but like 594 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 2: a four percent jump and hard hit rate is probably 595 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:55,919 Speaker 2: the difference between David Peter s having a three nine 596 00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:57,119 Speaker 2: and a three to three. 597 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,439 Speaker 3: I would argue that that's actually I think that's just 598 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 3: regular error. It's like that's the margin. I think, like Sandy, 599 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 3: the highest it has ever been of his career. No, totally, 600 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:06,720 Speaker 3: but I think that like even this game, there weren't 601 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:08,879 Speaker 3: tons of hard hit balls, but there were just a 602 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:10,920 Speaker 3: lot of balls in play. Three walks in one strikeown 603 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 3: and then like you walk three guys for free, you're 604 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:15,200 Speaker 3: not striking anybody out. All those other balls just winds 605 00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:16,679 Speaker 3: up in play like you're just not going to get 606 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:18,399 Speaker 3: to all them. Even the three two pitch that Machado 607 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 3: hit out, it was just it was so clear that 608 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 3: that was moving on. He didn't really have a way 609 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 3: to get him. He just kind of needed him to 610 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:26,439 Speaker 3: make it out in the field of play, and it 611 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,680 Speaker 3: seemed like he was also scared to walk him. Where Again, 612 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 3: when you look back, the walk wasn't really the worst thing. 613 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 3: And the two the three to one pitch, he gave 614 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 3: him a sinkers right down the middle, and it was like, oh, 615 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 3: I can't believe he missed that, and then gave him 616 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 3: a curveball. It just was it was low, but it 617 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,000 Speaker 3: was dead central. It's like, all right, see, La, there's 618 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:44,160 Speaker 3: he had the bid of the mile, so it wasn't 619 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:47,000 Speaker 3: it just I don't know how the way when the 620 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 3: Mets lined it up. I feel like they intentionally wanted 621 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,199 Speaker 3: Peters h for Wednesday so they could have Peterson for 622 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,719 Speaker 3: Monday and hopefully if they need to Peterson for Sunday. 623 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:56,680 Speaker 3: I don't know how comfortable I feel with that right now, honestly, 624 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,960 Speaker 3: not particularly comfortable, and especially you know, again, if we 625 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 3: make the postseason, and I don't know if he's if 626 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:05,680 Speaker 3: I feel too comfortable, I have n't pitching game one, 627 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:09,120 Speaker 3: let alone Game two. No, I think I think it's 628 00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:11,679 Speaker 3: at the same spot as you like it's. I do 629 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 3: think that Mendoz has now finally gotten to the spot 630 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:15,400 Speaker 3: where creativity is going. 631 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:16,120 Speaker 1: To happen, thank God. 632 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,160 Speaker 3: And I think that it's a situation where he might 633 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 3: have played himself more into a weapon than a starther. 634 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:23,399 Speaker 3: But also if he gets through a lineup once in 635 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:25,440 Speaker 3: Game two, he can definitely do it again if he. 636 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:27,160 Speaker 1: Just if the commands on that day. 637 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,160 Speaker 3: Like, we're not chastising David Peuison, but I think there's 638 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:32,600 Speaker 3: just more where David Pewson's full season stat line has 639 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:34,200 Speaker 3: now wound up and where it will be when the 640 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 3: season nets next week. 641 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,560 Speaker 2: It's probably just the pitcher he is, yes, and that's okay. 642 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 2: That's that's okay. He was he was never supposed to 643 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,200 Speaker 2: be the ace. That was never that was never realistic 644 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:44,679 Speaker 2: for him to be the ace. When we started to 645 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 2: think that maybe he was a front line, I were like, 646 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 2: is this happening? 647 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 1: That was worth surprise? I just barely bought in. 648 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:54,880 Speaker 3: Shame for buying in, because I was I was set 649 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:56,399 Speaker 3: fez the whole time I was getting killed for it. 650 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:58,280 Speaker 3: I was like, you know what, fine, let me let 651 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 3: me enjoy myself once that I can. 652 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 2: I can I interrupt you, because as much as we 653 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 2: talked about the pitching that wasn't great in that game, 654 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 2: can interrupt you with a little DraftKings player. 655 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:08,320 Speaker 1: Spotlight, Yeah, do it? 656 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,200 Speaker 2: I guess this is more less of a player spotlight 657 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 2: and more of a team spotlight. The MT's have been 658 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 2: hitting a ton of home runs recently. In Game two, 659 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 2: they hit four and lost the game, which is kind 660 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 2: of unfathomable. I don't know if there's many teams that 661 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 2: have hit four home runs in a game and lost. 662 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,399 Speaker 2: They're all solo shots. They weren't really getting the guys 663 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:30,880 Speaker 2: on base before they hit the home runs. But if 664 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,199 Speaker 2: you were watching this team the way they're driving the baseball, 665 00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:38,480 Speaker 2: specifically Wan Soto Pete Alonzo, it's like, it's pretty awesome 666 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:41,119 Speaker 2: to see because this is what we had been waiting for. Obviously, 667 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 2: SODA's got forty one home runs, Pete alons got thirty six. 668 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,480 Speaker 2: They've hit home runs all year, but it feels like 669 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:47,159 Speaker 2: for the first time, these guys are doing it at 670 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:50,119 Speaker 2: the exact same time, which is really special. 671 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:53,680 Speaker 3: Literally and that the exact same time power driven like 672 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:55,639 Speaker 3: they've seen them relatively hot at the same time. But 673 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 3: the fact that Pete has home runs four days in 674 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,120 Speaker 3: a row, so those teams like hits went every two 675 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 3: or three games like it is is a beautiful thing, 676 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:04,720 Speaker 3: and it's it's not easy for these other teams to 677 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:06,959 Speaker 3: contend with the middle of this lineup. And great thing 678 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 3: about Solo too, Lefty Randy, it doesn't matter he crushed 679 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:11,119 Speaker 3: that home run that was off of oh that was 680 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:12,440 Speaker 3: still off vel than never mind there was a curve 681 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,280 Speaker 3: ball off Pavet. It's he He's incredibly locked in right now. 682 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 3: I think in terms of DraftKings player spotlight for the 683 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 3: next series, We're not gonna preview this series. Yep, let's 684 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:22,159 Speaker 3: look ahead. We are facing two lefties. I kind of 685 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:23,120 Speaker 3: like Pete to get another one. 686 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 1: You know. Also, I might like to take a home 687 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:27,119 Speaker 1: run next series that Francisco Alvarez. Would you would you 688 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:28,199 Speaker 1: parlay those together? 689 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:30,120 Speaker 3: I mean, if we want to do a round robin 690 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:31,959 Speaker 3: for the Mets left team, the Mets left tam masters 691 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 3: of Pete Alvarez Starling Marte. If you two of them 692 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:36,360 Speaker 3: hit it, you do a crazy hit like that, That's 693 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 3: where I like to live in my my DraftKings baseball bets. 694 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 2: See, I'm just I'm gonna just be like Soto Alonzo 695 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 2: Wall together.

Ryan Helsa got through another scoreless inning short. 725 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 3: I'll just leave it at that. He did give up 726 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 3: a walk. He else did pick off Nando tatzis my 727 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:57,880 Speaker 3: king Ryan Ryan standing to give up a run though, 728 00:27:57,880 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 3: so we pull back on that one. But we're just 729 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,160 Speaker 3: where it's dying for one, righty, one righty to walk 730 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 3: up and be good. And I think I gave a 731 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:06,199 Speaker 3: pretty good scouting report, Nick Vet in this game. 732 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 1: Oh, you gave a great scouting report for the whole series. Again. 733 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 2: I mean, you're just just gonna have to do it 734 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 2: against the Nationals. A lot of weird names that we'll 735 00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:17,000 Speaker 2: eventually talk about, but when you say it, it seems 736 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 2: like the team listens something. 737 00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 3: At least Again, it was take war hacks ast pavet 738 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 3: that we had three solo home runs off him, a 739 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 3: lot and a lot of hard hit balls. Sure, the 740 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:26,879 Speaker 3: non zero percent chance that game just scouting report has 741 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 3: an impact, non zero. It's permeated the clubhouse in some 742 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,680 Speaker 3: possible way. But I think Game one was my proud 743 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:33,680 Speaker 3: scouting report of the season. 744 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 1: Game was awesome. Game one. 745 00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 3: We were there, it was a great time at the ballpark, 746 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 3: and the Mets just from the get go just absolutely 747 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:45,479 Speaker 3: decimated Michael King put hung a five spot on him 748 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 3: in the first standing seven through two. 749 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:50,240 Speaker 1: Four straight singles to start the game, and it. 750 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 3: Was just non stop, hard hit balls, hard hit balls, 751 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 3: hard hit balls while waving back and working that count 752 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 3: a little bit. 753 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 2: Shout out me for having the wherewithal to make the 754 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 2: easiest bet of all time. Francisco Lindoor's wife Katia did 755 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 2: the national anthem on the violin before the game, and 756 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 2: it was it was awesome. 757 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 1: First off station. She should do it every game. 758 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 3: What a talented family, unbelievably talented family. For everyone's doing 759 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 3: it forgot. I didn't even know that Katya had musical 760 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:15,959 Speaker 3: talent like that. 761 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 1: It had no clue. I had no clue. She played 762 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 1: a perfect rendition of the of national anthem, absolutely crushed it. 763 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 1: I saw Lindor's face. I looked at you. 764 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 2: I said, oh, he's going yard tonight. There's no doubt 765 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 2: in my mind. Hit that monster home run the second 766 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 2: ending off of Michael King. It was phenomenal to see 767 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 2: this team just jump all over him. You said, Michael 768 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 2: King had nothing. He has been a shell of himself, 769 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 2: and the Mets seemed like they noticed that immediately because 770 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 2: hit after hit after hit after hit, and the Brett. 771 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 1: Baby home run that hit the Shay Bridge. That was 772 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 1: the one me and you like looked at you were like, 773 00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 1: oh my god, it's happening. 774 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:48,960 Speaker 3: Up until that point in the first inning, Brett Baby 775 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 3: was the sixth batter. The Mets had the seventh batter 776 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 3: of the inning, including Baby. Only two Mets got the 777 00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 3: first pitch strike. The only other first pitch strike. I 778 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:57,959 Speaker 3: mean it wasn't Baby. There were two first pitch strikes there. 779 00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 3: Mine the one was so though, but he always take 780 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:02,320 Speaker 3: strike one, everyone knows. Although he's been a little more 781 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 3: aggressive this series swinging first pitch he has and the 782 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 3: other one was Jeff McNeil, who I told you. I 783 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 3: was like, this is the biggest a bat of the 784 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,240 Speaker 3: game right now, because we had the one run home, 785 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 3: but there was a basis lower than two out of Yes, 786 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 3: if we get any more here then we could really 787 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:15,400 Speaker 3: just knock. 788 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 1: Down the line over the base. Tried to backdoor sweeper 789 00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 1: him and he cranked it right there. 790 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:20,800 Speaker 3: So that it was nice to see the fact that 791 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 3: again Eric Chavez all over this thing. 792 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, I always trust him. I'm biggest Java. I'm never 793 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 1: doubt Eric Chavez. 794 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 2: But Jeremy Barnes's fault. He might be the one who 795 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 2: you should get the credit. 796 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 1: But we were just we were on it. 797 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:35,840 Speaker 3: We were ready from the get go against Michael King, 798 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 3: who again had nothing, and such a beautiful job by 799 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 3: Clay Holmes and Sean and Iya, the absolute prophecy being 800 00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 3: fulfilled that these two guys with some of the most 801 00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 3: different armslots in the entire team could piggyback with each 802 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 3: other and the other team had no clue. 803 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 2: It's almost like we saw this before and it worked, 804 00:30:56,800 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 2: and it worked beautifully, maybe in a Midwestern city, maybe 805 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 2: Kansas City. I know the medicine didn't win that game, 806 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 2: but it it worked. It worked pretty well on the 807 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:06,240 Speaker 2: pitching side. 808 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 1: They didn't hit. 809 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 2: It's this is the frustrating that, you know how like 810 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 2: we always joke about like a little frustrating about McLeay 811 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:14,760 Speaker 2: not being up as soon or tongue or sprote but 812 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 2: we knew that there was. 813 00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,920 Speaker 1: Change to Triple A. This was this could have happened 814 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:19,960 Speaker 1: the day that Sean and I came off the aisle. 815 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 2: This is the one that frustrated me because we literally 816 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:24,960 Speaker 2: we saw at the one time, we're like, probably should 817 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:26,680 Speaker 2: do this the rest of the year, and then it 818 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 2: took another month and a half of horrible, horrible baseball 819 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 2: Shamanyah looking terrible. 820 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 1: Two full months, well that was like, oh yeah, two 821 00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 1: full months. I guess July. It was middle of July. Yeah, 822 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 1: this the game. This game date was June September sixteenth. 823 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 1: This is September eighteenth today a recording I got. 824 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:44,240 Speaker 2: Days of the week don't make any sense to me, 825 00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 2: but two full months of bad baseball, specifically from Sean Manya, 826 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 2: and then they tried this and you're like, oh my god, 827 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 2: we can use two pictures in the game and win easily. 828 00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 3: And it was just I felt it with Manaia, especially 829 00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 3: like Clay Holmes did have the classic Clay Homes game, 830 00:31:57,720 --> 00:31:59,120 Speaker 3: like he gave up a long home run to Merrill, 831 00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:00,960 Speaker 3: you have another home run, but there was like some traffic. 832 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,320 Speaker 3: There was no sense they both with the balls were 833 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:04,280 Speaker 3: getting pissed on. 834 00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 1: In this game. It felt like we got juice balls again. 835 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 1: It felt like a juice ball game. 836 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:09,720 Speaker 3: But he still did the regular Clay Homes thing, and 837 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,000 Speaker 3: we definitely could have if it was regular Clay Holmes time, 838 00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 3: like Clayholmes to go one more inning, you probably would 839 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 3: have gotten the classic five innings three runs and that 840 00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 3: still would have been good enough to win. 841 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 1: But Manaia. 842 00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:21,720 Speaker 3: I think the whatever mental hurdle he had because over 843 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 3: might have happened with this relishing the opportunity to come 844 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:26,200 Speaker 3: out of the bullpen because he was back just being 845 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:30,320 Speaker 3: fastball Sean Manyah. Seventy percent of pitches threw fastballs, almost 846 00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:31,680 Speaker 3: all of them were in the strike zone. He's like, 847 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 3: I just dare you the hit it try And he 848 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:35,959 Speaker 3: still had the velocity dips. He still got to seventy pitches. 849 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:38,360 Speaker 3: He still threw a couple of them that squeaked below ninety. 850 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 3: But just it seemed like the confidence of it and 851 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 3: just the way the offense bludgeoned Michael King and the 852 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 3: padre's bullpen like didn't really matter anymore. 853 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 1: So we just we were able to cruise the win. 854 00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:49,280 Speaker 2: And what's really cool about using this, especially with the 855 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:53,680 Speaker 2: expanded rosters, is that if Clay Holmes has a rough start, right, 856 00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 2: he can only go two, you can go to Manaya. 857 00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:58,920 Speaker 2: Let's say Mania also is rough. That could take you 858 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:01,360 Speaker 2: to four or five. You're in the same spot as 859 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 2: if one of them stunk it up and you didn't 860 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 2: try to force anything. 861 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 3: And if Hilly Holmes goes two on Wednesday, he can't 862 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 3: go one on Friday. 863 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 1: Yep, Like you can be so creative. 864 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 2: You can start using these guys as weapons rather than 865 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 2: bashing our head into the wall, being like, why can't 866 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:16,880 Speaker 2: Clay Holmes or Sean and I. 867 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:19,640 Speaker 1: Go past eighty pitches? They don't need to, We don't 868 00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 1: have to do that anymore. Because this plan works. We've 869 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 1: done it twice. Keep doing it. 870 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:26,520 Speaker 2: There's gonna be at some point where you might have 871 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 2: to pull them earlier, but in this game they didn't, 872 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 2: and it was amazing to see them execute like they did. 873 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:33,840 Speaker 3: That was another part that was a teeny tiny bit 874 00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 3: frustrating about the Peterson Machado about on Wednesday, because the 875 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 3: bullpen was so well arrested. Yes, not one guy pitch 876 00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 3: the day before us. You could literally brought anybody interface Machado. Again, 877 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:44,880 Speaker 3: I don't know who you would have brought in. It 878 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 3: would have been standing probably, and I don't know how 879 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 3: much any of us wanted to see that, but yeah, 880 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 3: I just that's where it is. 881 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:50,479 Speaker 1: Also, I just misspoke. 882 00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:52,000 Speaker 3: We didn't do anything as the Padre's bullplay in that 883 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:53,640 Speaker 3: game because we just destroyed Michael King and the po 884 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:55,640 Speaker 3: just made him wear it. And I do want to 885 00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 3: say Interestingly enough, the last run of this game, oddly 886 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 3: for us, was scored on Cedric mullens solo home run. 887 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 3: That was kind of the beginning of this feeling of like, 888 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:04,640 Speaker 3: all right, something's happening with Mollons. 889 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:06,920 Speaker 1: Funny enough, Mark and I just. 890 00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 3: We ran to the bathroom the same time in between 891 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 3: innings before Mullins came up, because like Molins coming up, 892 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 3: good time running the bathroom, and we're in there, we're 893 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 3: washing our hands the same time as this other guy. 894 00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:17,880 Speaker 3: And I think this was the full embodiment of our 895 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 3: classic Joe from Massive Peaqua, like Joe from Tottenville, Like 896 00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 3: this was the WF hand caller. 897 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:24,400 Speaker 1: So we talked about Mullins. 898 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:26,719 Speaker 3: I'm watching the screen and listening in the bathroom, like 899 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:28,000 Speaker 3: I wish this guy could just be average. 900 00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:30,479 Speaker 2: I wash my hands coming from the bathroom. James says 901 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 2: that to me as I'm walking up. 902 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:33,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, and the guy is just he had like a 903 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:36,560 Speaker 3: white goateee, tenied bit of white hair, like cargo shorts. 904 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:38,719 Speaker 1: Like this was the guy that we always described at 905 00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 1: to a t, except for the fact about being on 906 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:41,279 Speaker 1: sweet level. 907 00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:42,840 Speaker 3: But yeah, yeah, that's the one of their friends. And 908 00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:44,960 Speaker 3: he was like Mullins, this guy sucks. 909 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 1: He's just immediately bang. 910 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 3: Home run milliseconds later, crack of the bat, Cela there 911 00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:52,320 Speaker 3: and we all were like yeah, and the bathroom, like 912 00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:54,239 Speaker 3: let's go. I think he was a little upset that 913 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,400 Speaker 3: he hit a hole brun Oh, definitely the entire bit, 914 00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:58,319 Speaker 3: because that's that's the same sect of Mets fans. I 915 00:34:58,320 --> 00:34:59,840 Speaker 3: don't really want the team succeed at the end of 916 00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:01,319 Speaker 3: the DA like they relish in the fact that the 917 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:03,239 Speaker 3: Mets sucked, and that's like part of their personality. But 918 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 3: nice again to see Mullins teeny tiny like tick up. 919 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:08,960 Speaker 3: And you know what's funny about it? Playing every day 920 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 3: Ye craze this guy get into a groove. Guy's been 921 00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:13,839 Speaker 3: everyday players entire career. A guy that whatever you guys 922 00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:16,320 Speaker 3: want to tell me Play's a fine defensive center field. 923 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,040 Speaker 3: He's not gonna win any more goal gloves, but he's 924 00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:19,759 Speaker 3: out there. It's a good defensive center field. 925 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:20,800 Speaker 1: I know the arm is not great. 926 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:22,839 Speaker 3: He might not be as good as a center field 927 00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:25,760 Speaker 3: as Tyrone Taylor. Tyron Taylor's not here anymore. No nobody's 928 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:27,399 Speaker 3: comparing the two guys, but that is just he also 929 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:29,919 Speaker 3: can't hit at all either. No, it's it's this team 930 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:31,680 Speaker 3: is the best version of itself with centric Mallins in 931 00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 3: center field. I'm happy that he could hopefully get to 932 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 3: a spot where he's fine. 933 00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,279 Speaker 1: It's got a seven hundred OPS again, I believe so 934 00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:40,319 Speaker 1: he does. That's enough. If he just. 935 00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:43,040 Speaker 2: Lives there at in the nine hole, Holy shit, this 936 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:46,080 Speaker 2: team's gonna score infinitely more runs. That'll be a better 937 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:48,799 Speaker 2: OPS in most nine hole hitters in the league. He 938 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:51,839 Speaker 2: basically just can't have a four hundred OPS. That's pretty 939 00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:54,640 Speaker 2: much all we're asking. Don't have a four hundred OPS. 940 00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:58,240 Speaker 3: Just hit better than Entz, Yeah, which I think Tyron Taylor, 941 00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:00,520 Speaker 3: which is always doing really really doable. 942 00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:01,520 Speaker 1: This game was fun. 943 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:03,400 Speaker 2: I wanted to talk real quick too, because you mentioned 944 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:05,239 Speaker 2: a fun interaction you had or that we had on 945 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:08,479 Speaker 2: game one Game three. Sitting with my dad at the game, 946 00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:11,920 Speaker 2: there was a guy behind us who was electric. He 947 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:14,120 Speaker 2: was when Brooks Railey was on the mountain, he would. 948 00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 3: Go Brooks, Brooks, Brooks, Brooks, Brooks, Brooks. 949 00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:17,920 Speaker 2: Brooks, scream and then when he get a strike he go, 950 00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:20,800 Speaker 2: oh yeah, and then he started screaming the name again. 951 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:23,600 Speaker 1: He was he was money. He was the vibes. I 952 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:25,800 Speaker 1: felt like we talked about. 953 00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:28,880 Speaker 2: This too during the Ranger series. Now we're starting to 954 00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:31,880 Speaker 2: get the real fans in the stadium. Summer's over schools 955 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 2: back in session.

They care a lot and they can tell 959 00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:42,319 Speaker 2: you all about Brooks RALI. They can tell you all 960 00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:44,840 Speaker 2: about Dom Hammill coming in for his major league debut, 961 00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:47,000 Speaker 2: but he's been called up three times, first time he's 962 00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:47,439 Speaker 2: been here. 963 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:50,200 Speaker 1: Shout Tom Hammill, never forget, shout out Tom Hamil. 964 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:50,319 Speaker 6: Hoh. 965 00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:51,520 Speaker 3: I hope we get him back.

So thank god, we're gonna 982 00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:25,359 Speaker 3: We're gonna keep up. But Tuesday Night, Hispanic Heritage Night, 983 00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 3: was awesome.

Also interesting, left, we heard 993 00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:51,880 Speaker 3: another song on Tuesday Night which adds fuels for our 994 00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:53,480 Speaker 3: fire from the old Jacob grom conversation. 995 00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:55,919 Speaker 1: Last episode. Oake Leices got o MG. 996 00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:59,040 Speaker 3: He got his tribute video like six Fishes, which he deserved, 997 00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:02,360 Speaker 3: which he deserves percent. Nothing bad about Jose Glaciers, but 998 00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:04,320 Speaker 3: still just no simple men. 999 00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:07,319 Speaker 1: No simple man. That's they did that had the tribute video, 1000 00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:08,719 Speaker 1: but hey, not. 1001 00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:11,280 Speaker 2: Worried about great series, great series win from this team 1002 00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:14,000 Speaker 2: and again a really really good series by Brett Bady. 1003 00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:15,719 Speaker 2: Just want to continue to give the guy credit when 1004 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:17,839 Speaker 2: he does home run on Tuesday, a bunch of hits 1005 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:20,440 Speaker 2: and a bunch of hard hit balls on Wednesday. Eight 1006 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:23,800 Speaker 2: really four ops in his last thirty games, seven to 1007 00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,800 Speaker 2: sixty five on the season outside shots to get to 1008 00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:28,560 Speaker 2: twenty home runs, and he even played the full year 1009 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:31,080 Speaker 2: like what went the same ops as Brandon Nemo and 1010 00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:32,319 Speaker 2: Sam with Alvaz right. 1011 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:34,600 Speaker 1: There with both of them. It's those two guys. 1012 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:36,400 Speaker 3: Whatever a Mets fan wants to tell you about what 1013 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,879 Speaker 3: they think of those two, I think we can tell 1014 00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:41,520 Speaker 3: internally from this organization that those two have now become 1015 00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:46,120 Speaker 3: They're not anywhere. They're not they're not cornerstones maybe yet 1016 00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:47,880 Speaker 3: or per se, but those are two guys that you 1017 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,880 Speaker 3: could you could write them in pen for the foreseeable future. 1018 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:53,839 Speaker 2: I'm gonna say, of course I wish they were better. 1019 00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:55,960 Speaker 2: I'll never not wish that a player was better. I 1020 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,560 Speaker 2: wish Brett Bady had a twelve hundred ops because of course, 1021 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:00,440 Speaker 2: if I can make the wish, I'd want the craziest 1022 00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:03,400 Speaker 2: things to happen. But for them, this might be the 1023 00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 2: perfect way for them to start really settling in and 1024 00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:09,120 Speaker 2: realizing that they belong here because you have the big boppers, 1025 00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:11,799 Speaker 2: you have the big names Brett Baty and Francis Guavareskin 1026 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 2: hit six seventh in the lineup, and just continue to 1027 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:16,319 Speaker 2: turn that lineup over for the big guys to drive 1028 00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:19,279 Speaker 2: them in. And they're like best friends and so it's 1029 00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 2: cool to watch them like be happy for each other 1030 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 2: and throp fantas in that too, because it has been 1031 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:24,320 Speaker 2: not a great few twenty better of us, but he 1032 00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:26,400 Speaker 2: still is a guy who's going to be here. Like 1033 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:29,520 Speaker 2: it's cool to see how strong the mental makeup these 1034 00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:31,239 Speaker 2: guys are, all three of them, I think, because all 1035 00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:33,799 Speaker 2: three of them have crazy ups and downs, trials and tribulations. 1036 00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:36,120 Speaker 2: I think it does say a lot about while we 1037 00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:38,200 Speaker 2: have chastise in the past to coaching infrastructure of this 1038 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:40,640 Speaker 2: Mets team, to just keep giving these guys the confidence 1039 00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 2: to succeed. 1040 00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:42,960 Speaker 1: Because this this team. 1041 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:44,840 Speaker 3: This roster this year next year after that, it's the 1042 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 3: best version of itself with those guys being really consistent, 1043 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:50,120 Speaker 3: steady cogs inside of it. 1044 00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:52,200 Speaker 1: Met's also win games when Brett Baty plays. 1045 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, that was I text you that someone tweeted that 1046 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:56,920 Speaker 3: the other day, or maybe Gary said on the broadcast. 1047 00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:58,919 Speaker 3: I'll find these act numbers because they're in our text. 1048 00:39:58,920 --> 00:39:59,520 Speaker 1: But it might be. 1049 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:01,479 Speaker 2: Sixty and forty one.

It is also 1109 00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:34,160 Speaker 3: very that player to be playing his best when he 1110 00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:36,480 Speaker 3: sees something like this on the horizon. Of course, not 1111 00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:37,719 Speaker 3: going to say the guy's name. Of the guys, they 1112 00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:39,360 Speaker 3: know what we're talking about, but it's very him for 1113 00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:41,040 Speaker 3: this hot streak to happen, exactly right. 1114 00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:43,120 Speaker 2: He's been asked about it publicly and he's he's spoken 1115 00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:44,280 Speaker 2: about it publicly recently. 1116 00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:45,720 Speaker 1: So if you ever need any more. 1117 00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:48,920 Speaker 3: Hints, that's the hint. Yeah, But getting into the series 1118 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:50,920 Speaker 3: talking about these pictures. Andre ra Alfarez the first one 1119 00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:51,560 Speaker 3: know who that is. 1120 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:52,759 Speaker 1: He's twenty six year old. 1121 00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:54,800 Speaker 3: He's drafted by the Nationals, doesn't have a ton of 1122 00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:55,520 Speaker 3: majorgue experience. 1123 00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:58,239 Speaker 1: He's only has three career starts. He's a weird guy. 1124 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:00,319 Speaker 3: Where it's against the lefty, he's kind of and he's 1125 00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:01,840 Speaker 3: not all the way through quarders. He's a little bit 1126 00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:05,239 Speaker 3: higher but still not fully upright. His fastball moves like 1127 00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:07,279 Speaker 3: a sinker. It's very strange pitch. It's got like cut 1128 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:09,080 Speaker 3: drop on it. And then he kind of he has 1129 00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:10,919 Speaker 3: a tight Garro slider off that just moves a little 1130 00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:12,319 Speaker 3: bit straight up and down, and then the curve ball 1131 00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:13,600 Speaker 3: that has a little bit side to side but a 1132 00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:16,080 Speaker 3: lot of drop. He's out there just hoping to hit 1133 00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:18,960 Speaker 3: the ground ball. Yeah, that's it, So you want to 1134 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:22,759 Speaker 3: it's he will walk you. Look, I'm I wouldn't be 1135 00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:24,760 Speaker 3: I wouldn't be that map. The Mets exercise some patience 1136 00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:27,279 Speaker 3: against Alvarez, but you're going to just get tons and 1137 00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:30,400 Speaker 3: tons and tons of the fastball, slyther curveball. Based on 1138 00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:33,200 Speaker 3: the spin of those pitches, it will be difficult to differentiate. 1139 00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:35,120 Speaker 3: But I do think that especially when you start to 1140 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:36,800 Speaker 3: put him in a box a little bit, and especially 1141 00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 3: for the righties who are going to get I mean, 1142 00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:41,280 Speaker 3: he does make them up pretty well those three pitches. 1143 00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:43,920 Speaker 3: So it's I'm curious how he does this. And then 1144 00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:45,640 Speaker 3: we'll see against the lefties, you're gonna get a lot 1145 00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 3: of sinkers because of maxing the sinkers. 1146 00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:48,760 Speaker 1: More'll never let the right these won sinker. 1147 00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:51,640 Speaker 3: Just he probably is not one of these guys where 1148 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:54,520 Speaker 3: waight back wait for the pitch, let him make a mistake. 1149 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:57,600 Speaker 3: Another guy who you probably should be hunting singles rather 1150 00:43:57,600 --> 00:44:00,680 Speaker 3: than Homer's probably good, honestly, a good Starling Marteche game great. 1151 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:02,560 Speaker 1: So maybe yeah, give certain Martell a look. 1152 00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:04,480 Speaker 3: Definitely, So I'm gonna take the fourger twenty foot home 1153 00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:08,120 Speaker 3: run on on on Wednesday Night too, and then Cavali 1154 00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:10,239 Speaker 3: my boy, one of our favorites. 1155 00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:11,439 Speaker 1: Unbelievable story. 1156 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:13,920 Speaker 3: Fitzcar over the last five six years, high end pitcher 1157 00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:16,080 Speaker 3: out of Oklahoma. He's transfer into Oklahoma two right, Yes, 1158 00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:18,880 Speaker 3: he was a transfer transfer in drafted in twenty twenty. 1159 00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:21,800 Speaker 3: Kind of wrote rose the major leagues quickly, crazy strikeout 1160 00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:24,680 Speaker 3: stuff ninety seven ninety ninety nine miles an hour with 1161 00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:26,360 Speaker 3: a nasty curve ball, which I love the right the 1162 00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:29,399 Speaker 3: rioties with the fastball curve ball. Got injured, came back, 1163 00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:32,440 Speaker 3: got injured much worse. Now he's twenty seven years old, 1164 00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:34,240 Speaker 3: he's still rookie eligible, and he's. 1165 00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:35,560 Speaker 1: Been fine, not good. 1166 00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:36,880 Speaker 3: He's got to hit a round a few times, but 1167 00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:39,279 Speaker 3: he's had some really nice starts in the middle. With 1168 00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:41,600 Speaker 3: caval you kind of have the mix of like gems 1169 00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:44,439 Speaker 3: and blow ups, like or a classic like four inning, 1170 00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:47,080 Speaker 3: four run, four walk games. He's kind of famous for that. 1171 00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:50,239 Speaker 3: So he's probably the guy you attack. He's probably the 1172 00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:51,839 Speaker 3: guy you want to just hit, hit, hit, hit, because 1173 00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:54,279 Speaker 3: he will be around the zone more than most. It 1174 00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:56,160 Speaker 3: doesn't he's good the void in the barrel, but he 1175 00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:57,759 Speaker 3: will give up a bunch of fly balls. So that's 1176 00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 3: something you want to get that ball in the airy. 1177 00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:01,200 Speaker 2: Because he will give a bunch of fly balls, but 1178 00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:02,879 Speaker 2: also does get a bunch of ground balls to fifty 1179 00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:04,480 Speaker 2: three percent ground ball rate on the year. He's got 1180 00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:07,239 Speaker 2: a heavy fastball. That's always why I like this heavy fastball. 1181 00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:08,560 Speaker 2: And he can throw hard. 1182 00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:10,040 Speaker 3: And again you can do both of those things mean 1183 00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:12,879 Speaker 3: a very little strikeout correct what he thinks he does. 1184 00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:14,879 Speaker 3: I think the ground balls that come this year, he's 1185 00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:16,719 Speaker 3: brought more sinkers into the repertoire he's ever had. 1186 00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:23,120 Speaker 2: So Katevally was not a transfer. He was not a transfer. 1187 00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:27,160 Speaker 2: He just was a two way player to start, I believe. 1188 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:29,000 Speaker 2: I want to say he was like a catcher or 1189 00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:30,800 Speaker 2: an outfielder. He was a two way player to start, 1190 00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:34,120 Speaker 2: then became a pitcher only. Also, fun thing about Kate 1191 00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:35,000 Speaker 2: Cavally not his. 1192 00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:37,720 Speaker 1: Real name either. What's his real name, James, I don't know. 1193 00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:41,840 Speaker 3: Steven Stephen, Kate Cavally, Stephen Kate Cavally. Kate is so 1194 00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:42,840 Speaker 3: much cooler than Steven. 1195 00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:44,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean Kate Cavally sounds like that sounds like 1196 00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:45,160 Speaker 1: a winner. 1197 00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:48,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, stevens with a V. I'm assuming yeah, with a 1198 00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:49,160 Speaker 3: V nice call. 1199 00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:51,440 Speaker 1: That's rough. It's a bad, bad one. Sorry for the 1200 00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:53,440 Speaker 1: v Stevens out there. We like. I like pH Stevens 1201 00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:53,879 Speaker 1: a lot more. 1202 00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:57,160 Speaker 2: I have no preference that's how Stephen is spelled. Well, yeah, 1203 00:45:57,200 --> 00:45:58,800 Speaker 2: of course that's our boy, but I have no preference 1204 00:45:58,800 --> 00:45:59,480 Speaker 2: of how it's spelled. 1205 00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:00,200 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1206 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:03,040 Speaker 3: And then Mitchell Parker, all I'm gonna say is statistically speaking, 1207 00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:04,799 Speaker 3: based on the results in the day that we have, 1208 00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:07,200 Speaker 3: he's been one of the worst pitchers in baseball this season. 1209 00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:09,680 Speaker 3: So just hit him, just attack, just crush him. It's 1210 00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:12,400 Speaker 3: he has another one, a very up and down repertoire 1211 00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:14,560 Speaker 3: because he has the fastball that's just a pretty He 1212 00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:16,880 Speaker 3: has good shape on that fastball with a splither with 1213 00:46:16,960 --> 00:46:19,879 Speaker 3: a curveball that is a true straight up and down 1214 00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:22,400 Speaker 3: it's not all the way twelve six because it doesn't 1215 00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:24,279 Speaker 3: drop that much, a little bit tighter, a little bit 1216 00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:26,239 Speaker 3: more of a power curve. It's over eighty miles an hour, 1217 00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:28,279 Speaker 3: which isn't really power curve when you started that with 1218 00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:30,000 Speaker 3: ninety two. That's kind of a power curve, but it's 1219 00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:31,600 Speaker 3: like it's a straight up and down pitcher and a 1220 00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:34,040 Speaker 3: slider with just Tanna be the wagle for the lefties, 1221 00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:36,880 Speaker 3: but he's he's proved this season that one he will 1222 00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:39,160 Speaker 3: be around the strike zone and two you should be 1223 00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:41,080 Speaker 3: able to get under those pitches. 1224 00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:41,480 Speaker 1: And crush them. 1225 00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:44,360 Speaker 2: We did just briefly talk about Dylan Lyle on the 1226 00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:46,560 Speaker 2: wind up for a video that's gonna be coming out 1227 00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:49,320 Speaker 2: this weekend. He's kind of been the hot hitter. I 1228 00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:52,200 Speaker 2: feel like in this lineup, this is a team that 1229 00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:57,640 Speaker 2: the Mets should sweep. I want sweep. I think anything 1230 00:46:57,719 --> 00:47:00,120 Speaker 2: other than sweep. I feel a little bit disappointed, and 1231 00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:02,439 Speaker 2: especially with how few games are left and how close 1232 00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:05,120 Speaker 2: everything is, sweep is kind of the option. 1233 00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:06,440 Speaker 1: But you gotta take one game at a time. 1234 00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:09,360 Speaker 2: Win Friday, worry about Saturday on Saturday, worry about Sunday 1235 00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:11,960 Speaker 2: on Sunday. Can't look ahead too far. The national team 1236 00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:15,480 Speaker 2: has been pesky to us to end seasons before. We 1237 00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:17,839 Speaker 2: cannot let them do that. You have to take care 1238 00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:20,000 Speaker 2: of business. You have to beat the Nationals. 1239 00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:22,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, and as if we're recording this right now, just 1240 00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:25,000 Speaker 3: to give you guys a standings update, we're two games 1241 00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:28,239 Speaker 3: and the lost column column ahead of all of the Diamondbacks, 1242 00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:30,880 Speaker 3: the Reds, and the Giants, which is great, which is great. 1243 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:34,239 Speaker 3: This Reds and the Giants both played later tonight, the 1244 00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:36,399 Speaker 3: Reds at home against the Cubs with the Hunter Green 1245 00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:38,799 Speaker 3: on the Mountds Go Cubs, and then the Giants on 1246 00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:42,120 Speaker 3: the road against the Dodgers. Logan Webs Yoshinoba Yamamo though 1247 00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:42,880 Speaker 3: in an aceof so. 1248 00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:43,640 Speaker 1: Let's go Dodgers. 1249 00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:46,600 Speaker 3: That's where we're at right now. And it was a 1250 00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:48,600 Speaker 3: crazy series. You guys are scored were watching this week. 1251 00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:51,359 Speaker 3: But between the Dodgers and the Giants, because I mean 1252 00:47:51,400 --> 00:47:54,120 Speaker 3: the Nuts, Giants, the Diamondbacks and Giants, those those are 1253 00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:55,879 Speaker 3: two teams who are fighting kind of with each other 1254 00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:58,560 Speaker 3: to get as close as possible to us. Nice that 1255 00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:01,200 Speaker 3: the Giants now have the Dodgers, I just love love 1256 00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:03,320 Speaker 3: to hear that. With the announcement that Klin Kush is 1257 00:48:03,320 --> 00:48:04,919 Speaker 3: gonna make in the final start of his career. 1258 00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:06,759 Speaker 1: One of the all time greats, that's for sure. 1259 00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:09,839 Speaker 2: But then Justin Verlander made the announcement he's pitching again 1260 00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:10,759 Speaker 2: in twenty coming back. 1261 00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:12,320 Speaker 1: He's chasing three hundred. 1262 00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:14,080 Speaker 3: Good for him, chase three hundred, dude, we're not he 1263 00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:16,000 Speaker 3: might someone's gonna pay you get it right, If someone's 1264 00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:17,879 Speaker 3: gonna pay you might as well keep going. Turned out 1265 00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:20,120 Speaker 3: twelve million dollars to pot to just get your name 1266 00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:21,319 Speaker 3: a little bit more to the history books. 1267 00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:23,600 Speaker 1: Why not, and then be a Hall of Famer. Otherwise 1268 00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:25,440 Speaker 1: the Hall of Famer, I'm saying, get that three hundred 1269 00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:27,279 Speaker 1: huge of course. 1270 00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:28,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, he probably will be the last guy to ever 1271 00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:29,960 Speaker 2: get three hundred wins. 1272 00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:33,239 Speaker 3: Good chance this national team too. It's like it's I'll 1273 00:48:33,360 --> 00:48:34,759 Speaker 3: I'll never say the top of the liamup is bad. 1274 00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:36,680 Speaker 3: I'll always see Josh Bell and respect him because he 1275 00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:39,960 Speaker 3: crushes us. He's guaranteed home run this series from Josh Bell. 1276 00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:42,319 Speaker 3: And then what then Abrams? You know, up and down 1277 00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:44,960 Speaker 3: young players, but I still they're still talented. Same with Sam, 1278 00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:47,880 Speaker 3: with Dylan Cruz, same with Luis Garcia. Luis Garcia is 1279 00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:49,680 Speaker 3: is just a couple of months older than c J. 1280 00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:50,960 Speaker 3: Was just kind of funny you think. 1281 00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:51,480 Speaker 1: About as crazy. 1282 00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:53,520 Speaker 2: And they got Brady House, they got they have young 1283 00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:56,440 Speaker 2: players all over the field, yes, but very young youngest 1284 00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:58,960 Speaker 2: team baseball. I think actually satisically twenty average is the 1285 00:48:58,960 --> 00:48:59,759 Speaker 2: twenty six man roster. 1286 00:48:59,800 --> 00:49:02,120 Speaker 1: And he got to jump all over this bullpen, jump. 1287 00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:03,600 Speaker 3: All over the bullpen, jump all over the starters, the 1288 00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:05,759 Speaker 3: bullpen is what kind of killed us in last years. 1289 00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:07,240 Speaker 1: They beat us too ass free in Washington. 1290 00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:10,440 Speaker 3: So it's a situation where you can't really let that 1291 00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:13,720 Speaker 3: happen again. Now you've seen Connor Pilkington, you've seen Clayton 1292 00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:16,239 Speaker 3: be there, you've seen Jackson Rutlers. You cannot let these 1293 00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:18,279 Speaker 3: guys throw clean frames against you. 1294 00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:20,480 Speaker 1: You got Frankie Peppers for us here to end the episode. 1295 00:49:20,640 --> 00:49:23,040 Speaker 3: I do, Frankie Pepper send us out. Frankie was timely 1296 00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:23,520 Speaker 3: with this one. 1297 00:49:23,520 --> 00:49:24,840 Speaker 1: He's been on top of Frankie. 1298 00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:27,239 Speaker 2: I saw a lot of people making Bolonnier's shout out, 1299 00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:30,200 Speaker 2: Matt Fitz making some Bolognier's at home.
