1
00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:03,600
Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox

2
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:07,560
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. You can't blame Dodger fans if they had

3
00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:10,840
Speaker 1: become cynical, because for some time now the Dodgers were

4
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:14,000
Speaker 1: the best team in baseball. It didn't result in a championship,

5
00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 1: and a lot of people probably thought, why would this

6
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:18,640
Speaker 1: year be different? Well, it turns out there was one

7
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:21,560
Speaker 1: big reason why this year was different. His name is

8
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:25,119
Speaker 1: Mookie Betts. When the Dodgers traded for him from the

9
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:27,440
Speaker 1: Red Sox, there was a lot of hope in Los Angeles.

10
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:31,520
Speaker 1: Then that got derailed for some time because of the pandemic,

11
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 1: and then once the season got going, the postseason arrived,

12
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:38,520
Speaker 1: Mookie proved just how special he was at the plate

13
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 1: on the basis in the field five tool player Game

14
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:44,840
Speaker 1: six of the World Series, he had a six stitting double,

15
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 1: brilliant base running, gave them the lead, added a solo

16
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:50,279
Speaker 1: homer in the eighth, And of course, there's a lot

17
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 1: of credit to go around here. Clayton Kershaw, the rest

18
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:55,320
Speaker 1: of the staff, pitch well, Corey Seeger was the MVP.

19
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 1: Several players contributed. Dave Roberts hopefully we'll get some credit

20
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,640
Speaker 1: here as well. But while Corey Seeger was the MVP.

21
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:07,160
Speaker 1: Mookie Betts was the MBD, he was the most Valuable Dodger.

22
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 1: There's a lot of questions with last night's game, and

23
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:14,680
Speaker 1: you know, you look at let me just start on

24
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: the field. I'll get to Justin Turner in a moment here,

25
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 1: but just what was going on with the pitching matchup?

26
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 1: We thought it was going to be a bullpen session

27
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 1: for the Dodgers, And basically, let's see what happens in

28
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 1: game six if we have to go to a game seven.

29
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:33,680
Speaker 1: We have a well rested walker Bueller, but you're using

30
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 1: seven pitchers there and you allowed one earn run. Blake

31
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,960
Speaker 1: Snow was cruising. Blake Snell through the first four or

32
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 1: five innings was brilliant, seventy three pitches. But the analytics

33
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 1: will tell you that once he gets to the third

34
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 1: go round in the lineup, that's when trouble happens for

35
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,920
Speaker 1: Blake Snell. That's around the fifth or sixth innings. So

36
00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 1: if I gave you inning by inning ra before last night,

37
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 1: for Blake Snell in the postseason, first inning ERA is

38
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: three point six zero, second inning zero point zero zero,

39
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,359
Speaker 1: third inning one point eight zero. Fourth inning zero point

40
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: zero zero fifth inning, fourteen point seven three ERA. Now,

41
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 1: if you're gonna make a decision based off of that

42
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 1: the analytics, then you're probably looking at third time around.

43
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,800
Speaker 1: Top of the lineup with the Dodgers, Mookie Bets was

44
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 1: leading off and Blake Snell was pulled by his manager,

45
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 1: Kevin Cash. Here's what Kevin Cash had to say as

46
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 1: to why he took out his picture. The only motive

47
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: was that the lineup line up to the Dodgers features

48
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 1: as potent as any team in the league. Personally, I

49
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 1: felt Blake had done his job and then some Mookie

50
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: coming around for the third time through. I value that.

51
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,920
Speaker 1: I totally respect and understand the questions that come with it.

52
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,959
Speaker 1: Blake gave us every opportunity and when he was outstanding.

53
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,800
Speaker 1: They're not easy decisions, and that's where I came to

54
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 1: the decision. I felt it was best after the guy

55
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 1: got on Bass Barnes hit the single. Didn't want Mookie

56
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:16,639
Speaker 1: seeing Mookie or Seeger seeing Blake a third time. Okay,

57
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,640
Speaker 1: if you're gonna, you know, criticize this, then you have

58
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 1: to be critical prior to him pulling Blake's Now, the

59
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,800
Speaker 1: only thing I thought when I'm watching it is and

60
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,240
Speaker 1: I didn't know the ra in the fifth inning for

61
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,640
Speaker 1: him in the postseason the third time around, I do

62
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 1: know that Mookie was not hitting left hander as well.

63
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 1: Mookie after the game on Fox the post game was

64
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 1: like we were happy to get rid of him, you know,

65
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 1: I felt like I had a chance with somebody else.

66
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 1: You want to bring in your reliever who hasn't pitched

67
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 1: well in the postseason. Are you using analytics with that

68
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: decision when you bring in Anderson? Are you using analytics

69
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 1: to say maybe we shouldn't be bringing him in because

70
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: he has not pitched well in the postseason. There's something

71
00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 1: about analytics, and there's something about a gut feel. The

72
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 1: only thing I would want to know if I'm the manager,

73
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 1: all right, let me see where we are on the

74
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 1: pitch count, and I know that we're coming up with

75
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,520
Speaker 1: the top of the lineup again. I just want to

76
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 1: know what my catcher is going to tell me, and

77
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 1: I want him to tell me. Look, they're not even

78
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,359
Speaker 1: close to hitting him. You know, he's still got good velocity,

79
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 1: he's got still still a good bite on his breaking ball,

80
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 1: like he was pitching so well and in such control there,

81
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 1: but I don't know if if all of a sudden,

82
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:31,280
Speaker 1: you're catcher and I would say to him, you got

83
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:32,839
Speaker 1: to be honest with me. I don't even go to

84
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,279
Speaker 1: Blake Snell. I'd go to my catcher and say, I

85
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 1: want you to put yourself in my position. What would

86
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 1: you do? I mean, these are big boy decisions here.

87
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 1: This will stay with Kevin Cash for a long long time,

88
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 1: and Blake Snell maybe was going to get torched, maybe

89
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 1: get lit up. I just I don't like being married

90
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 1: to analytics because they're also has to be a gut

91
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 1: feeling in the moment. This is the World Series. Because

92
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,159
Speaker 1: if I'm Blake Snell, you say, let me try to win,

93
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,119
Speaker 1: but also let me try to lose the game too,

94
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,039
Speaker 1: And by that, I mean let me stay out there.

95
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 1: If I lose the game, I'm still I'm your best option.

96
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 1: I want to be out there. I want to stay

97
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 1: in I want to pitch as long as I can

98
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,239
Speaker 1: to win. But even if I'm out there and we lose,

99
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 1: I want to be the guy on the mound. And

100
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 1: it's rare when the pitcher gets to talk the manager

101
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:27,159
Speaker 1: out of a decision. Because Kevin Cash came out there

102
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 1: armed with analytics and basically was saying before he got

103
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 1: out there, I'm taking you out. And Blake Snell knew that.

104
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 1: And Blake Snell was not thrilled. This is what he

105
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 1: had to say about trying to stay on the mound

106
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,480
Speaker 1: and definitely disappointed, upset. You know, I don't know, I

107
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,720
Speaker 1: just want the bar. I felt good. I felt I

108
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 1: did everything I could to, you know, prove my case

109
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 1: to stay out there, and then for us to lose,

110
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,720
Speaker 1: you know, it just it sucks. What if he had

111
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 1: left Blake Snell in and Blake Snell got torched, not

112
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 1: the reliever, then we would be all over who today.

113
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,039
Speaker 1: You use your analytics all these months. That's the reason

114
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 1: why you were the favorite in the American League, and

115
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,839
Speaker 1: then you went against analytics. Because we're looking at the

116
00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:17,119
Speaker 1: results here. I just want to know what Blake Snell

117
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 1: was thinking, and I want to know what my catcher

118
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 1: felt like he was seeing and feeling and the reaction.

119
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:28,159
Speaker 1: You know, with the hitters too, how close are they?

120
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 1: A lot of times you'll see guys who are right

121
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 1: on somebody's fastball. You know, they always say, oh, he

122
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 1: just missed that. I didn't get that feeling with the Dodgers,

123
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 1: and then I'm bringing in a reliever who hasn't pitched

124
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,280
Speaker 1: well in the postseason. What were the analytics on that?

125
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 1: Because if I'm married to the analytics to take out

126
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 1: my picture, then I'm going to be married to the

127
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 1: analytics of maybe not bringing in that reliever. I feel

128
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 1: like we should just date analytics. I don't know if

129
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: we should be marrying analytics. I just want to date. No,

130
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 1: I think we should see other people, all right, eight

133
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 1: a pull question for me? Yes, Paully worded it, and

134
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 1: I like it, always trust analytics or your gut. So

135
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 1: it's black and white. You can't go you can't go

136
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 1: one or the other. Yeah, you can't be like, well,

137
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 1: sometimes I'll trust analytics. I think it has to be

138
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 1: noted that Andrew Friedbman is the president of the Dodgers,

139
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 1: and he's like one of the grandfather you know, he's

140
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,120
Speaker 1: one of the he built the Rays. He's like as

141
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 1: analytics stud, theo Epstein one with the Cubs and the

Speaker 1: Red Sox analytics stud Jeff lu Now and the Astros

143
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 1: analytics analytics analytic. Dodgers pulled a perfect analytics game last night.

144
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 1: They did one ending of their starter. The Astros had

145
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 1: different analytics though. Yeah, they actually were famous for their

146
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 1: analytics and turned out was a garbage analytic. Um. I

147
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 1: understand analytics. It's not like I'm an analytics denier. It's

148
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 1: just I think that you get married to something and

149
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 1: it feels like in that moment, you have to have

150
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 1: a human element. How many times do you see something

151
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,960
Speaker 1: if we did analytics. Kurt Gibson wouldn't have come to

152
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 1: the plate for the Dodgers against the Oakland A's because

153
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 1: we'd say he can't catch up to Eckersley Madison Bumgardner

154
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 1: probably wouldn't pitch as long as he did in games

155
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 1: with the Giants when he was so brilliant. Like, it

156
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:32,079
Speaker 1: feels like some great baseball moments would have been prevented

157
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 1: because of analytics. And that's the only thing that I

158
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 1: get a little concerned about. And I've railed against analytics

159
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 1: from the standpoint as I think it's taken the heart

160
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 1: and soul out of baseball. I don't think it's as enjoyable.

161
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 1: There's no movement. How many times do the race strike

162
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 1: out last night. You know, there's no on base percent,

163
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 1: like nobody cares about any of that stuff. And it

164
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 1: feels like I'm celebrating Mookie Bets today because why in

165
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 1: the field, great defense, on the basis and at the plate.

166
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 1: I'm looking at everything that he offers baseball and that's

167
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:10,680
Speaker 1: what I love seeing. I don't like one dimensional, and

168
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:14,599
Speaker 1: baseball feels like his one dimensional. And that's where analytics

169
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 1: sometimes comes in. It's like, hey, you don't need to

170
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 1: take a you know, lay down a bunt, you know,

171
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 1: steal a base. You don't have to do any of

172
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 1: those things. Yeah. Maybe, but it felt like the Dodgers

173
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 1: did some small things in this series that helped them win.

174
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 1: And I would have left Blake Snell in if I

175
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:38,679
Speaker 1: thought Blake Snell was still virtually unhittable. He wasn't striking out.

176
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 1: I don't know the last guy he struck out, McLevin.

177
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:43,439
Speaker 1: If you can find that, Paul, and do you have that? Yeah?

178
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,080
Speaker 1: He Blake Snell struck out the side in the fourth ning.

179
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 1: Seeger Muncie and Turner struck him out one two three

180
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:51,679
Speaker 1: in the fifth inning. He was it was a one

181
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 1: two three inning, but everyone got a bat on the ball,

182
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,920
Speaker 1: So that's the difference. So those are his last two innings. Yeah, yeah,

183
00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 1: I would have left him in. It's the World Series.

184
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 1: If I knew if my answer was going to be

185
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 1: a reliever who hadn't pitched well, then it makes me

186
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: stay with Snell a little bit longer, and it might

187
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,440
Speaker 1: be one of those where I say to him, if

188
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,560
Speaker 1: you give up a hit, I'm taking you out. But

189
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 1: I have to let him still be on the mound there.

190
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 1: It was a great series, a lot of drama and

191
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 1: a lot of heroes, some questionable moves there, and of

192
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,680
Speaker 1: course we end up with Justin Turner of the Dodgers,

193
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 1: pulled from the World Series last night after a positive

194
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen tests. We didn't know why at the time,

195
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 1: but Turner went over three he had two strikeouts. He

196
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,960
Speaker 1: came out of the game starting the eighth inning. The

197
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 1: team didn't give a reason for his exit when he left,

198
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 1: sources told ESPN's Jeff pass And Turner had been asked

199
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 1: to isolate after the positive test, but no one stopped

200
00:10:56,280 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 1: him from going onto the field to celebrate. Sources told

201
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 1: Passing that in the second inning, the lab doing a

202
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:08,320
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen test informed Baseball. Turner's test from Monday came

203
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 1: back inconclusive, So that's in the second inning. It's unclear

204
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:16,080
Speaker 1: why the results of the test arrived after the game started,

205
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:18,560
Speaker 1: but we're trying to get somebody who was on the

206
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 1: ground there to help us understand that sample's taken from

207
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 1: Tuesday arrived at the lab and turner His were run immediately.

208
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 1: When it showed up positive, the League called the Dodgers

209
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:33,559
Speaker 1: and said to pull Turner. The Dodgers didn't have a

210
00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 1: choice in this. I don't know how long they waited

211
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,719
Speaker 1: to pull him from the game. I don't know if

212
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,520
Speaker 1: this was a case of Jeff Passon or Kenny Rosenthal

213
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 1: maybe finding this out and the Dodgers had to pull

214
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 1: him or Major League Baseball had to pull him. Why

215
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 1: you get results back during a game? That was the

216
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 1: strange part of it. What kind of you know, COVID

217
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:58,160
Speaker 1: protocol do you have that you're running test and you're

218
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:04,720
Speaker 1: getting results back to a game. Here is Andrew Friedman,

219
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:08,679
Speaker 1: the Dodgers president, on Justin Turner testing positive. It was

220
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:15,320
Speaker 1: obviously a really unfortunate endpoint of this incredible series and

221
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 1: definitely affected some of the joy from winning, just because

222
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,839
Speaker 1: of how much JT is meant to us and him

223
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 1: not being able to be on the field for that

224
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:28,440
Speaker 1: final out with everything he's done for this organization. But

225
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 1: you know, it's something that is no one's fault. It's

226
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:34,680
Speaker 1: just how things played out. And you know, we'll figure

227
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 1: out exactly how to proceed going forward, because I'm going

228
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 1: to assume that everybody's going to get tested again after

229
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 1: the game before they go their merry way after winning.

230
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:47,960
Speaker 1: Are they going to have a celebration? Is there going

231
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,319
Speaker 1: to be some kind of celebration in Los Angeles? Will

232
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 1: they get together for that? I think Justin Turner is

233
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:57,080
Speaker 1: a free agent in waiting here, but last Dave Roberts

234
00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 1: when he joins us a little bit later on, and

235
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 1: we're trying to get somebody who was there at the game,

236
00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 1: whether it's Jeff Passon or Kenny Rosenthal, and I know

237
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 1: they're being pulled in a lot of different directions. We're

238
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,559
Speaker 1: just curious about this whole process and how it got

239
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 1: to the point where you find out in the second

240
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 1: inning and the next thing you know, in the eighth

241
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,440
Speaker 1: inning he's pulled and there was no reason given. And

242
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 1: then he's out there celebrating. He had his mask on

243
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 1: for most of the time, but he insisted on not

244
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:24,560
Speaker 1: having his mask on when they had the World Series

245
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 1: trophy there, and that was briefly there. But Baseball realizes

246
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:31,320
Speaker 1: it was not a good look last night. That's why

247
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 1: the commissioner said, you know that there was a bittersweet

248
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 1: moment for Major League Baseball. Yeah. Point one thing that

249
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 1: confused me. I had like clarity on is if MLB

250
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 1: knows that Justin Turner has tested positive. Let's say in

251
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 1: the middle of the seventh inning, did I wonder if

252
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 1: they considered letting him finish out the game since there

253
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,320
Speaker 1: was two more innings, he had already played seven innings,

254
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 1: or were they in a position where if they do

255
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,200
Speaker 1: that that would be disaster knowingly let a player finish

256
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:58,200
Speaker 1: a game. If somebody found that out right, then it

257
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 1: would be that baseball. Baseball has been so great they've

258
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 1: had no positive test for fifty eight days, none and

259
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 1: then you get one at this point and was it

260
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 1: a false positive? We weren't quite sure it was inconclusive.

261
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 1: Then you run the test again and then it comes

262
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:17,079
Speaker 1: back and then you say, we got a pulling from

263
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 1: the game. There's there's more to this story. I don't

264
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 1: know what direction it goes in, but it feels like

265
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 1: there's a whole lot more to this story. And plus

266
00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 1: he had been around his teammates this whole time. And

267
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 1: what are the odds that if Justin Turner has this,

268
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 1: that other players in the Dodger roster are not infected.

269
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:45,360
Speaker 1: Maybe they're asymptomatic. But you have wives there, families there. Oh,

270
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 1: but we're trying to get answers, and Fritzie has done

271
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 1: a great job. He's trying to track down somebody who

272
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 1: was there at the game. Eight seven seven three d

273
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 1: P show email address DP of Dan Patrick dot com.

274
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 1: We're talking about analytics. We just got a tweet, Phil,

275
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 1: who is a Cubs fans since eighty nine, says the

276
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 1: Houston Astros used trash canalytics. I think that's a that's

277
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 1: pretty good crash cantalytic. Chample. I guess we got to

278
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 1: get into this at some point. How much do you

279
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 1: blame or not blame Justin Turner for his actions after

280
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 1: the game. He waited till well after maybe MLB officials

281
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 1: were out at the clubhouse or whatever, and went on

282
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 1: the field, But he was told not to go out there, told,

283
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 1: but not physically restrained or anything. We think, well, I'm saying,

284
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 1: I think I know what I would do if I

285
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 1: were in that situation. I was just in Turner, I

286
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 1: would probably do this similar thing. I would, you know,

287
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 1: I would probably more. I don't know if he's a

288
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: Dodger in four months from now, and I think I

289
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 1: would probably go out and get the picture of my

290
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 1: teammates with a mask on if I could. I just

291
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,480
Speaker 1: know myself and my wife obviously, whatever I have, she

292
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 1: has I have. But these are your teammates and other

293
00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 1: people around you, and you can't be careless. I know

294
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 1: you want to celebrate, but you can't be careless. I

295
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:55,520
Speaker 1: think I would have. I think I would have gone

296
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 1: out there and said, I'm I'm possibly positive, and I'm

297
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 1: gonna go and get the picture and do two or

298
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 1: three minutes and then move on. I wasn't gonna do

299
00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 1: the monkey pile with him and jostle around him. And

300
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 1: he shouldn't have been out there. Shouldn't be out there.

301
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 1: And if you are out there, wear a mask the

302
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 1: whole time. But you know, it's just it's that's not

303
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,360
Speaker 1: a good look, not a good look. And it's an

304
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 1: unfortunate moment because it takes away from a greater moment

305
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 1: that the Dodgers won the World Series. Yeah, see in

306
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 1: the moment though, it's got to be pretty difficult, Yes

307
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:28,560
Speaker 1: it is. It's got to be pretty difficult to lay

308
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 1: off on that. But you're already told that you're take

309
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 1: you're taken out of the game in the eighth inning,

310
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 1: and you're told by Major League Baseball to not go

311
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 1: on the field. It's a tough moment. Baseball tells you

312
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 1: not to go on the field. You your Dodger president

313
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 1: Andrew Friedman talked about it, so you know, it's unfortunate

314
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 1: because we should be just talking about the Dodgers and

315
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 1: what an unbelievable season and Baseball pulling this off somehow,

316
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 1: making at work no positive tests for fifty eight days,

317
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,640
Speaker 1: and then we have one in the World Series. In

318
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 1: Game six, you had Blake Snell being pulled from the game.

319
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:13,720
Speaker 1: Mookie Betts was awesome, Corey Seeger MVP, Clayton Kershaw finally

320
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 1: gets his World Series win. I mean, there are a

321
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,920
Speaker 1: lot of great moments here, and I don't want to

322
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 1: spend a lot of time on what happened with Justin Turner.

323
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:27,000
Speaker 1: But I don't want to overlook it either, because could

324
00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:29,280
Speaker 1: this happen in Let's say this happened in the Super

325
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:35,439
Speaker 1: Bowl third quarter? Hey, Patrick Mahomes, you're gonna have to

326
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:39,119
Speaker 1: come out. We got a fault, we got an inconclusive

327
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:43,399
Speaker 1: test here, or you tested positive. But that's what happened

328
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 1: last night. As crazy as it may sound, that's what

329
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:51,480
Speaker 1: happened last night. Jeff Passon from the Mothership, joining us

330
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 1: on short notice. Jeff, thanks for joining us. I hate

331
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,199
Speaker 1: to focus on just one thing, but we're trying to

332
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:58,919
Speaker 1: figure out what was happening in real time with the

333
00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:03,400
Speaker 1: Dodgers and Justin Turner and when everybody, Why did this

334
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,879
Speaker 1: test come back during the middle of Game six of

335
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:10,120
Speaker 1: the World Series? Boy? Is that a great question? Dan?

336
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 1: And the one Now, there are two things that I'm

337
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:18,399
Speaker 1: still a little confused about. The first is that I

338
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,879
Speaker 1: was told that the tests from Monday, which should have

339
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:25,639
Speaker 1: been back before game time on Tuesday, before Game six,

340
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 1: had not arrived. The results arrived in the second inning

341
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:34,040
Speaker 1: and they said that Justin Turner's test was inconclusive. It

342
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:38,120
Speaker 1: showed some signs that he might be positive, and right

343
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 1: around then, the tests that were taken on Tuesday, the

344
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 1: day of Game six, had arrived in Utah at Major

345
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 1: League Baseball's lap for COVID nineteen testing, and they said,

346
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:51,959
Speaker 1: don't rerun that original and conclusive test. Let's just go

347
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:55,399
Speaker 1: straight to the new one and spin that sucker. And

348
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 1: it takes about two hours to get results. And in

349
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:01,640
Speaker 1: between the second inning when they had the inconclusive test

350
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:05,359
Speaker 1: from Monday and the seventh inning when they had finally

351
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:08,880
Speaker 1: gotten the results from Tuesday testing, they realized that Tuesdays

352
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,840
Speaker 1: came back positive. Called up the Dodgers to get him

353
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,120
Speaker 1: out of the game as soon as you can. And

354
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:20,200
Speaker 1: that's why Justin Turner sat down and everything that happened happened. Okay,

355
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 1: but he's been around his teammates. We've had no positives

356
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 1: for fifty eight days. Yeah. I don't know if Baseball

357
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 1: ran the risk of leaving him in the game since

358
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,000
Speaker 1: he had already been around his teammates. He you know,

359
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,560
Speaker 1: here he is in the seventh inning here. I don't

360
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,200
Speaker 1: know if reporters, I don't know if you or Kenny

361
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:43,919
Speaker 1: Rosenthal like you guys found out and Baseball had to

362
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 1: do this. I mean, I hate to be cynical or

363
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 1: skeptical with this, but it's kind of crazy. It's just

364
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:55,919
Speaker 1: one unfolded rights. Yeah, it's totally crazy and it's totally ridiculous.

365
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 1: I will say this though, and correct me if I'm

366
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:00,640
Speaker 1: wrong here, because I might be off. But I think

367
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 1: if Justin Turner had tested positive and had remained in isolation,

368
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,520
Speaker 1: it would have been a part of this story, but

369
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 1: it would not have been the focus like it is

370
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 1: right now. And the fact that he was out there

371
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,680
Speaker 1: on the field, the fact that he went out there

372
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,159
Speaker 1: with a mask but took it down taking pictures with

373
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 1: his wife and took it off when he was sitting

374
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 1: next to the World Series trophy on his left, and

375
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:29,680
Speaker 1: Dave Roberts, his manager, a cancer survivor, on the right,

376
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 1: who was also maskless. You know. Andrew Friedman talked about

377
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:37,440
Speaker 1: the optics and how the optics were bad. If that's

378
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 1: the case, and the optics were bad, but I mean

379
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:43,440
Speaker 1: it goes beyond optics too, right, Like, it's just it's

380
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:47,880
Speaker 1: a health thing, and it's a bummer that baseball had

381
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,919
Speaker 1: done as well as it had for as long as

382
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:54,800
Speaker 1: it had and then when something like this happened, it

383
00:20:54,840 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 1: was pulled off in such a slipshod ugly way, and

384
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,280
Speaker 1: I don't think, you know what, to me, I don't

385
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:08,480
Speaker 1: think it takes away from what Dodgers did and from

386
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 1: the meaning of this. I think when we look back

387
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,400
Speaker 1: five or ten years from now, we're going to look

388
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 1: back and say that the Dodgers won the World Series

389
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 1: for the first time in thirty two years. But in

390
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,360
Speaker 1: the moment, it just it feels wrong and it looked wrong,

391
00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 1: and you know, you can have a lot of excuses.

392
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:30,440
Speaker 1: You can say he's been around his teammates and people

393
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:34,200
Speaker 1: in the organization in close quarters. He rode the bus

394
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 1: with them over to the park that day, at twenty

395
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 1: minute bus ride, so clearly he was, you know, close

396
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 1: enough to people for more than fifteen minutes that they're

397
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:46,399
Speaker 1: pretty much all going to be contacts with him at

398
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,120
Speaker 1: this point. And that all the people who he ran

399
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 1: into on the field were people who he had run

400
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 1: into already otherwives. But even still, you know, Baseball had

401
00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 1: had done such a good job up until this point,

402
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 1: and it's just it's unfortunate that it went the way

403
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 1: that it did. Yeah, imagine if there was a Game seven, like,

404
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 1: oh my goodness, like Hey, you know, it's interesting you

405
00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 1: say that because let's say Blake Snell hadn't been pulled

406
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 1: out of the game. Let's say he continued to shove

407
00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:20,200
Speaker 1: the way that he was, and Justin Turner's COVID test

408
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 1: came back positive number one, Justin Turner's not going to

409
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:25,359
Speaker 1: be playing in a game seven. Number two. It's going

410
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 1: to be at least two days until another game seven.

411
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:30,439
Speaker 1: And if there are more positive tests that come in,

412
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:32,520
Speaker 1: it's going to delay it again and again and again,

413
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,200
Speaker 1: and we're just going to be sitting here for lord

414
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,760
Speaker 1: knows how long while this whole thing happens. And you know,

415
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:42,199
Speaker 1: I hope, I hope like hell that there are no

416
00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 1: other positive tests that come back. But if there were,

417
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,919
Speaker 1: imagine that these players have to sit out, you know,

418
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,360
Speaker 1: upward of two weeks. And the Dodgers are going out

419
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:55,120
Speaker 1: there for a Game seven, playing with a roster that's

420
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 1: you know, three quarters, it's normal size, but they're missing

421
00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:01,760
Speaker 1: multiple players who they would have there in a normal situation.

422
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 1: I mean, major League Baseball is thanking it's lucky stars

423
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:08,720
Speaker 1: right now that this was the outcome. We're talking to

424
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:12,719
Speaker 1: Jeff Passon from ESPN, The Great baseball reporter when I

425
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,879
Speaker 1: watched Blake Snell through the first four innings and it

426
00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,200
Speaker 1: seemed to be cruising. And I know what the analytics

427
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:21,359
Speaker 1: were when he gets to the fifth inning, but I'm

428
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,360
Speaker 1: just not sure this got the Dodger or this got

429
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,800
Speaker 1: the raise here. I understand that they are based in analytics.

430
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:32,199
Speaker 1: I just didn't know if anybody talked to anybody like

431
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:36,040
Speaker 1: the catcher, did anybody say Blake wants to stay in there.

432
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 1: I just didn't know. This is the World Series, this

433
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:43,120
Speaker 1: is Game six. Guys have a propensity to step up

434
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 1: even higher, taller, in a bigger moment. I didn't know

435
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:50,080
Speaker 1: if Blake Snell all of a sudden was not getting

436
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:53,440
Speaker 1: bite on his curveball, didn't have velocity, didn't have location.

437
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:56,879
Speaker 1: All I know is what Mookie Betts said after the game. Jeff,

438
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:58,960
Speaker 1: He's like, basically, thank god he got out of there,

439
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:03,040
Speaker 1: because I had a chance to get a hint. It's

440
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:06,120
Speaker 1: really interesting and I want to make a comparison that

441
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 1: I haven't heard a whole lot in Twenty four hours earlier,

442
00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:13,880
Speaker 1: Clayton Kershaw was out on the mound having gotten two

443
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,200
Speaker 1: outs on two pitches in the sixth inning, and Dave

444
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 1: Roberts walked out there and got absolutely booed to death

445
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,359
Speaker 1: by all the Dodger fans who were at the stadium there,

446
00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 1: And we're not sitting here today talking about the Dodgers

447
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 1: as world champions who were based on analytics. What the

448
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:36,479
Speaker 1: Raise did was really no different than what the Dodgers did. Now,

449
00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,000
Speaker 1: you can make the argument that Blake Snell has better

450
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,359
Speaker 1: stuff than Clayton Kershaw, and it's true, and you can

451
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 1: make the argument that Blake Snell looked just as sharp

452
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,440
Speaker 1: as he did, but that's also you know, running into

453
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 1: the fallacy of what you've done is what you're going

454
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:54,840
Speaker 1: to do. That's not always the case. We just this

455
00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:58,880
Speaker 1: will be like an all time you know what could

456
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:04,240
Speaker 1: have been. And we think because he was so great beforehand,

457
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 1: that he was going to continue that. In me, if

458
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:11,040
Speaker 1: I'm the manager, if I'm Kevin Cash, yeah, I'm probably

459
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 1: keeping him in there. But I'm saying that from a

460
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:17,399
Speaker 1: position of privilege where a I don't have to make

461
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,639
Speaker 1: those decisions. Yeah, but Anderson hadn't pitched well, Jeff, that

462
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 1: was my point is I'm bringing in a guy who

463
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:25,359
Speaker 1: has struggled. Yes, if you're going to tell me that

464
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 1: Blake Snell third time around is going to struggle. Let me,

465
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,320
Speaker 1: I'm going to keep you in until you give up

466
00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:33,040
Speaker 1: a hit, and then you know that, I know that,

467
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 1: and then we will part ways on the mound. But

468
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:39,440
Speaker 1: until then, I mean, admittedly, Dan, he had just given

469
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:43,560
Speaker 1: up a hit, okay, right, yes, Like like Austin Barnes

470
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,720
Speaker 1: had hit the last pitchy through, which was the ninety

471
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,040
Speaker 1: four point three mile per hour fastball, which was his

472
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 1: lowest of the night up the middle. You know, Blake

473
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,440
Speaker 1: Snell had been sitting at ninety six all night. Now,

474
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:56,840
Speaker 1: I'm I'd like to think I'm smart enough not to

475
00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:59,880
Speaker 1: base my analysis of a player on a single pitch

476
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 1: that he crew. Blake Snell could have come out and

477
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,399
Speaker 1: thrown the next one at ninety seven for all I know.

478
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:08,159
Speaker 1: You know, the velocity on his off speed pitches in

479
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,880
Speaker 1: that inning thus far had been consistent with the other

480
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 1: ones that he had thrown, and Mookie had not hit

481
00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 1: left handers, he had not hit Snell. I mean, I'm

482
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,200
Speaker 1: not basing this off the results, because in the moment

483
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:22,400
Speaker 1: I said, yeah, you know what, I would definitely leave

484
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 1: him in there. I mean, I will say this, Dan,

485
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:29,119
Speaker 1: It's incredible that Mookie Betts, Corey Seeger and Justin Turner,

486
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 1: who have been awesome, all three of them. This postseason

487
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:35,560
Speaker 1: went over six with six punch outs against Blake Snell

488
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 1: the first two times through the order. Yeah, great job,

489
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:41,920
Speaker 1: and thank you again for all the times that you

490
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:44,359

Speaker 1: of a younger Keith Morrison from NBC Dateline. I'll take that.

493
00:26:56,080 --> 00:27:04,160
Speaker 1: That guy rules you can you say? Oh that pesky DNA?

494
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 1: I would love to. Okay, Okay, mold on. Sorry, Okay,

506

Speaker 1: I see you're having Sean Casey on. Why don't you

507

Speaker 1: ask Sean the time that he faced a young Clayton Kershaw.

508
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:54,960
Speaker 1: And then he sent me a link to the video

509
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:59,680
Speaker 1: and I go, oh, that's not nice. I can't lead

510
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,520

530

00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:52,320
Speaker 1: this guy is either, but we've never seen stuff like this.

551
00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 1: So I look back, I'm like, thank you. Next pitch,

552
00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:58,600

00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 1: know what the dude just right here. I'm out right.

555
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:07,480
Speaker 1: And I walked back and I said that Frank Cono,

556
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:11,880
Speaker 1: I go, you don't know who this guy is, and

557
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,040
Speaker 1: two year goes, I don't know, but I'm just glad

558
00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:20,280
Speaker 1: I'm not you. You called that the nastiest pitch you

559
00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,920
Speaker 1: ever faced, that curveball that he threw you back then,

560
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 1: I swear to you know, all those years in the

561
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:28,720
Speaker 1: Big League station and different guys and Zito had a

562
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:32,720
Speaker 1: good curveball, but I've never seen ninety seven like darted

563
00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 1: down and then a hook like that, and it was

564
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,120
Speaker 1: it was it was like it was like he threw

565
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:39,960
Speaker 1: it up in the spin and it was it was scary.

566
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:41,479
Speaker 1: I thought I was gonna hit me and I just like,

567
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,440
Speaker 1: I like turned into a four year old kid like Marmy.

568
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,360
Speaker 1: You know, it was unbelievable. It man, he maybe looked

569
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:49,560
Speaker 1: like it. And then then he got called up later

570
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:51,880
Speaker 1: in that year and I was like, that's the guy.

571
00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:54,760
Speaker 1: That's the guy face. And then when he started dominating,

572
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 1: I was like, yes, he's dominating everybody. Did you ever

573
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:02,440
Speaker 1: talk to Kershaw about that had bad? Oh? I did, Yeah.

574
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 1: I think a couple of years later at the All

575
00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:05,800
Speaker 1: Star Game, I was working for MLB Network and I

576
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:07,880
Speaker 1: was out there, you know, interviewing guys, and I think

577
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 1: one of the first things I asked them was, hey, man,

578
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 1: you did me dirty bro. I didn't even know who

579
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:14,440
Speaker 1: I didn't even know who you were, And he goes, hey,

580
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,360
Speaker 1: I had to go. I knew I was facing Sean

581
00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 1: Case says something like that. He's like I had to

582
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:19,760
Speaker 1: get him. I'm like, oh man, you got me, all right?

583
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 1: Like I felt so so small. I was like, I

584
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 1: need to retire. I need to retire. All right, let's

585
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,640
Speaker 1: start with the move last night when Cash goes to

586
00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,959
Speaker 1: the mound. Now, what did you think that he should

587
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 1: do with Blake Snell in that moment? Boy, I just

588
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:39,840
Speaker 1: I just know as a hitter, when there's certain guys

589
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 1: that are on the mound, and you know, I know,

590
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,640
Speaker 1: I know he had punched out Mookie twice, he had

591
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:48,720
Speaker 1: punched out Seeger and Turner twice. And I understand what

592
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,080
Speaker 1: Cash is saying because that's what they've done all year long.

593
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,600
Speaker 1: So you know, I know they don't like to have

594
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:57,040
Speaker 1: the picture face the line up three times. But I

595
00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 1: know Snell was dominant. I mean, he was just had

596
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 1: great stuff. So for me as a hitter, if you've

597
00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 1: punched me out twice, I'm not looking forward to that

598
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,840
Speaker 1: third time up, that means something really good's happening out there.

599
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:09,440
Speaker 1: And so I kind of I just I love Cash,

600
00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 1: a great friend of mine. I disagreed with it because

601
00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:16,400
Speaker 1: I know, as a hitter, get this guy out of

602
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:18,400
Speaker 1: here as quick as we can. I mean, bring a

603
00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:20,600
Speaker 1: guy in with a rocket launcher. I don't care. Just

604
00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,640
Speaker 1: I I need to see something else besides what's going

605
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:26,160
Speaker 1: on out there? So I don't know. Man, I'm second

606
00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:28,160
Speaker 1: guests in cash and they're in the World Series for

607
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:30,000
Speaker 1: a reason. But I would not have taken Snell out

608
00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 1: right Snell out right there. Yeah, and Mookie said after

609
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 1: the game he was like, man, I was relieved that

610
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,520
Speaker 1: they took him out because I felt like, I now

611
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 1: I had a chance. And you know, they brought in

612
00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:41,680
Speaker 1: Anderson and he had been hitting right handers better than

613
00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 1: left handers. Yeah, I think, yeah, what was it. Mookie's

614
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:49,240
Speaker 1: slugging percentage off off lefties was like two eighteen, and

615
00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,520
Speaker 1: so it just didn't make sense. And Anderson was the

616
00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:53,760
Speaker 1: one guy too that like, I know, he's been really

617
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,000
Speaker 1: good these last few years, but he hasn't had a

618
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 1: great postseason. He's the one guy felt like was pretty hittable.

619
00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 1: And when Mookie got that belt, I was like, oh,

620
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 1: here we go. What do you think is the future

621
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:08,080
Speaker 1: of analytics in baseball? Well, that's a great question, because

622
00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 1: I really I think I think there's I think it's

623
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 1: gonna come back around again. Like, I just really believe

624
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:18,640
Speaker 1: there is something to be said, like about the mental

625
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 1: side of the game, about the flow of the game,

626
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 1: the mojo of the game about really seeing what your

627
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:26,520
Speaker 1: eyes are seeing. You know, you know, you can't judge

628
00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 1: like I always people always say about hitting. I'm like,

629
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:31,800
Speaker 1: listen when I'm in the box, like I really am

630
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:33,959
Speaker 1: trying to dump things down. I'm trying to see the

631
00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 1: ball and hit the ball like I'm really trying to like, uh,

632
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:40,400
Speaker 1: you know, slow the game down. Like there's no analytics

633
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:42,200
Speaker 1: that can help me with that stuff, and you need

634
00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:45,080
Speaker 1: a human being to be able to measure. Hey, man,

635
00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 1: he's really seeing the ball, whether it or he's feeling

636
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 1: good today. I talked to when he came to the yard.

637
00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 1: So I think there's gonna be I think there's gonna

638
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:53,240
Speaker 1: be more of that. I think we're starting to get

639
00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:56,120
Speaker 1: analytics heavy, and I just think it's the cycle is

640
00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:58,360
Speaker 1: gonna bring it back to Hey, we still need those

641
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:01,080
Speaker 1: baseball guys that have that that past the eye test.

642
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:04,480
Speaker 1: I love that Mookie Bets was on display for the

643
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:08,880
Speaker 1: nation to see because I baseball has become regional, but

644
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:12,120
Speaker 1: I'm I'm glad that people got to see him and

645
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:15,319
Speaker 1: he does everything. He's not one dimensional, which a lot

646
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:18,040
Speaker 1: of our baseball players now are one dimensional, or it

647
00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:20,520
Speaker 1: feels that way he did it on the basis. He

648
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:22,480
Speaker 1: did it in the field, he did it at the plate,

649
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:26,240
Speaker 1: and I can't say enough about him. I love watching

650
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:30,160
Speaker 1: him play. I think he's very smart. He's not a

651
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:34,120
Speaker 1: big guy, but he's not afraid. And I know, Seeger

652
00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:37,879
Speaker 1: got the MVP. I think that, you know, I think

653
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:41,319
Speaker 1: Mookie was the MVD the most Valuable Dodger. Yeah, I

654
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:43,040
Speaker 1: think so. I mean, I think he put them over

655
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:44,879
Speaker 1: the top two. I think without Mookie bets, they don't

656
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 1: win the whole thing. And you're right, Danny Man, when

657
00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:49,839
Speaker 1: you watch him play, it's everything you'd want to bring

658
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:51,960
Speaker 1: your son to watch, Like, you know, hey, watch this

659
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 1: guy hit. Then when he gets on base, it's like, okay,

660
00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:57,440
Speaker 1: now you're a base runner. You know. He he does everything,

661
00:34:57,520 --> 00:34:59,640
Speaker 1: the way he cuts the corners, the way he gets jumps.

662
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:01,719
Speaker 1: I loved it. Last night after the game, they asked

663
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:04,080
Speaker 1: him about, you know, the read he got, you know,

664
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 1: scoring scoring from third base, and he said, hey, listen,

665
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:08,600
Speaker 1: I knew I needed to get a big secondary. I

666
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:11,040
Speaker 1: knew I needed to get going quickly, and I was

667
00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:13,560
Speaker 1: able to do that. Like, I just love the fact

668
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:15,919
Speaker 1: that he runs the base as well. He plays gold

669
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:18,319
Speaker 1: glove defense, He hustles on and off the field, he

670
00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 1: can hit. He just does everything that you would want

671
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:22,600
Speaker 1: to see a baseball player do, and that's why he's

672
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:24,640
Speaker 1: one of the best in the game. I brought this

673
00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:27,719
Speaker 1: up to the commissioner last week, where I understand you're

674
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 1: gonna have a shift, but I can't have I would

675
00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:34,080
Speaker 1: prefer not to have the shortstop on the other side

676
00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:37,440
Speaker 1: of second base or second base on the other side

677
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:41,120
Speaker 1: of you know, second base with the shortstop. I just

678
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 1: don't want extreme shifts. Is that am I asking too much? There?

679
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:50,560
Speaker 1: Is it fixable? I mean I kind of feel the

680
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,400
Speaker 1: same way you do. I don't know, like is it

681
00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:55,760
Speaker 1: like the illegal defense kind of thing in the NBA

682
00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:58,399
Speaker 1: or you know what I mean. I think I feel

683
00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:00,359
Speaker 1: the same way sometimes too. And you know, it's such

684
00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:03,399
Speaker 1: a big deal now, it's such a big thing to see. Hey,

685
00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:05,480
Speaker 1: guys are beating the shift in the postseason. They're going

686
00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:07,840
Speaker 1: the other way. They're staying inside it, you know, and

687
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,320
Speaker 1: and you know people always say, well, if they start

688
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:13,040
Speaker 1: to do that, they'll they'll shift back. Well, you're not

689
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:15,960
Speaker 1: gonna ask your big power hitters to just beat the

690
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:17,799
Speaker 1: shift all the time. You got to actually hit the

691
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:20,000
Speaker 1: ball out of the ballpark nowadays in this game. But

692
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:22,160
Speaker 1: I agree with you, man, I don't. I don't love

693
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:23,719
Speaker 1: the shift. And I know people say, hey, it's a

694
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:26,799
Speaker 1: strategy thing. I get it, but you know, everyone's on

695
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:28,759
Speaker 1: one side of the field, and like, I don't, I

696
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:33,080
Speaker 1: don't love it. And the Justin Turner situation last night, Like,

697
00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:37,280
Speaker 1: how bizarre is this that in the middle of Game

698
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:40,920
Speaker 1: six of the World Series. I mean, I don't know

699
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:44,080
Speaker 1: what would happen if there was a Game seven because

700
00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:47,279
Speaker 1: Justin Turner was around all of his teammates. I mean,

701
00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:51,200
Speaker 1: nothing had changed. It felt like once the game started, Sean,

702
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:55,919
Speaker 1: then you know what, everybody gets to play the rest

703
00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:59,000
Speaker 1: of the game. I don't know, it just felt you

704
00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 1: imagine this in the third quarter somebody's you know, they

705
00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:06,040
Speaker 1: have an inconclusive test and then they take another one

706
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:07,200
Speaker 1: and they go out and play, and then they go

707
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:10,280
Speaker 1: in the third quarter, hey, uh, you know, Tom Brady,

708
00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:13,080
Speaker 1: come here, you gotta sit down. You you tested positive?

709
00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:18,240
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, no, I mean seriously, I mean it's crazy.

710
00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:20,920
Speaker 1: It's almost part for the course for this year. You know,

711
00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:23,440
Speaker 1: it's just oh the World Series, you're just number three

712
00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:26,600
Speaker 1: hitter has COVID in the middle of the game. It's crazy.

713
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,160
Speaker 1: And it was because Joe Buck kept saying, you know,

714
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:30,960
Speaker 1: Turners out of the game, We'll have to find out why.

715
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:33,920
Speaker 1: I mean, I never would have in my wildest dreams thought, yeah,

716
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:35,560
Speaker 1: he left the game in the middle of the game

717
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:38,520
Speaker 1: with COVID, Like, that's just crazy. And then you run

718
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:41,480
Speaker 1: onto the field too, you know, after this, and he

719
00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:44,319
Speaker 1: had been told he'd been told not to go out

720
00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:47,000
Speaker 1: there on the field. I know you want to celebrate,

721
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:50,720
Speaker 1: but and maybe he thought, look, I've been around these guys,

722
00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:53,719
Speaker 1: I'm going out there to celebrate. I understand where what

723
00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:57,120
Speaker 1: his thought process is. But for major League Baseball, you

724
00:37:57,200 --> 00:37:59,640
Speaker 1: can't let Justin Turner go out there. If you're pulling

725
00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:01,600
Speaker 1: in from the game, you can't go on the field

726
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:06,040
Speaker 1: to celebrate. Yeah, I'm sure emotions were so high with

727
00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:08,799
Speaker 1: with with Turner and that, you know, I don't know,

728
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:10,359
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know what I would have done there,

729
00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 1: but yeah, you're right. I mean, it's it's one of

730
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,719
Speaker 1: those things where it's a it's a very touchy thing,

731
00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:16,319
Speaker 1: and you know you don't want to put other people

732
00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:18,239
Speaker 1: in danger. Well, I would want to go out and

733
00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:20,319
Speaker 1: celebrate with my teammates. I don't even know if I'll

734
00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:22,480
Speaker 1: be with the Dodgers next year. He's a free agent.

735
00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:25,960
Speaker 1: I understand it's the best, biggest moment of your baseball career,

736
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:29,440
Speaker 1: but major League Baseball or the Dodgers have to say

737
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:32,759
Speaker 1: justin you can't go out there, you can't go out Yeah.

738
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:36,120
Speaker 1: I mean it's tough. YEP, I agree. I agree with you.

739
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:44,080
Speaker 1: Anybody have more energy than you. Yeah, Brett Phillips, I

740
00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:49,000
Speaker 1: think does did you ever have a manager get talked

741
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:50,759
Speaker 1: out of taking a pitch like you would be on

742
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:52,520
Speaker 1: the mound at first base? Did you ever hear a

743
00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:55,920
Speaker 1: conversation where a pitcher talked his manager out of taking

744
00:38:55,960 --> 00:39:01,400
Speaker 1: him out of a game? Was there any weird let

745
00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:05,919
Speaker 1: me see him? Yeah, I'm sure I did. I can't

746
00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:07,600
Speaker 1: think it went off the off the top of my head.

747
00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:10,319
Speaker 1: It doesn't. I didn't. It didn't happen too often. I mean,

748
00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:12,759
Speaker 1: there might have been one or two times, but you know,

749
00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:15,239
Speaker 1: I'm sure I did it. But I you know, I

750
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:18,160
Speaker 1: love it. I love it when when you you're able

751
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:20,200
Speaker 1: to have that conversation, if the manager comes out and

752
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:22,799
Speaker 1: the and the pitcher says no, I'm not coming out

753
00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:25,120
Speaker 1: of this game. And you know, I don't know if

754
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:27,240
Speaker 1: that happens the way it did back in the day, Danny,

755
00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:30,960
Speaker 1: but you know I've seen it a couple of times.

756
00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:33,560
Speaker 1: You never went to the manager and said, you know what,

757
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 1: I think you should pull in. No, I never did, never,

758
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:39,920
Speaker 1: did you know? I kind of relied on the manager

759
00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:42,840
Speaker 1: to just to just, you know, do that. I remember

760
00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:45,279
Speaker 1: Dave Dave Miley, when Dave Miley one time came out

761
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:47,480
Speaker 1: to the Mount and he was like, we came, you know,

762
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:49,280
Speaker 1: we were meeting at the Mount and hadn't got anybody.

763
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:51,400
Speaker 1: He's like, about to get the lefty. He looked at me,

764
00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:53,400
Speaker 1: He's like, in case, I gotta go with the lefty

765
00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:55,120
Speaker 1: right here. I'm like, I don't know. I just played

766
00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 1: first bat. That's you're deciding. I don't know, get the

767
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:01,319
Speaker 1: left e the right you every day just do it.

768
00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:03,759
Speaker 1: Did a pitcher ever ask the manager to have you

769
00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:13,719
Speaker 1: pulled from the game. Thanks for getting up. Always great

Speaker 1: got a it's his brand. I like their their stuff.

789
00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:25,920
Speaker 1: It wasn't like a play on anything. I don't know.

790
00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:28,680
Speaker 1: I just I like a brand. Oh wait, Scott from

791
00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:35,640
Speaker 1: the Kardashians. That's right. Yeah, have you met him? No? Never,

792
00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:37,480
Speaker 1: I just I'm not gonna lie to you. I was

793
00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:40,600
Speaker 1: on Instagram one day and this ad popped up and

794
00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:42,560
Speaker 1: it was targeted obviously for me, and I thought it

795
00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:45,120
Speaker 1: was a cool brand. And I bought one sweatshirt and

796
00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:47,399
Speaker 1: the sweatshirt is so comfortable. Ended up buying like six

797
00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:49,560
Speaker 1: more of them, so I wear them all the time.

798
00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:56,040
Speaker 1: But you you're not talentless? No, no, not at all.

799
00:41:57,960 --> 00:42:02,960
Speaker 1: Is that your Is that the Buffalo Bills facility ye're in?

800
00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:05,799
Speaker 1: Or are you at home? Not in my house right now?

801
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:12,080
Speaker 1: What's the coolest thing in your house? Um? I've got

802
00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:16,560
Speaker 1: my Elvis post up here. Oh okay, big Elvis fan. Um,

803
00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:18,440
Speaker 1: coolest thing in my house? I don't. I don't have

804
00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:24,000
Speaker 1: many cool things. If you will, Um, I don't. I

805
00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:26,439
Speaker 1: don't buy a whole lot of things. So that that's

806
00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:29,480
Speaker 1: that's my most prized possession. Have you got my tato

807
00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:33,640
Speaker 1: full MVP downstairs? Sill? So? Have you been to Graceland?

808
00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:38,480
Speaker 1: I've never actually been to Graceland. Oh I need I

809
00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:40,120
Speaker 1: need to get down there. You got to do the

810
00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:42,840
Speaker 1: whole tour. Man, if you love Elvis, you go to

811
00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:47,520
Speaker 1: on that tour. It's awesome. Yeah, that's that's that's on

812
00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:51,120
Speaker 1: the bucket list for sure. Uh so are you an

813
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:55,879
Speaker 1: MVP candidate? How do you ract when you hear that? Um?

814
00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:57,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just trying to do my job to

815
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:00,800
Speaker 1: be honest and be the best quarterback I could, best

816
00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:04,040
Speaker 1: teammate that I could be for the Buffalo Bills at that,

817
00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:08,520
Speaker 1: like I said, has me throwing for three hundred yards

818
00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:10,480
Speaker 1: and five touchdowns or throwing for one hundred yards and

819
00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:13,239
Speaker 1: zero touchdowns, or whatever the case may be, to put

820
00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:15,040
Speaker 1: us in position to win a football game. That's that's

821
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,359
Speaker 1: what I'm for. So I really don't care about any

822
00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:20,520
Speaker 1: of the other accolades, but being in that contention means

823
00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:23,000
Speaker 1: our team's winning and we're doing what we're supposed to do,

824
00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:25,000
Speaker 1: So I'm all for it. Do you play with a

825
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:29,520
Speaker 1: chip on your shoulder? Yeah? Yeah, absolutely. And I think

826
00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:34,240
Speaker 1: that it goes back to zero recruit their zero offers

827
00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:38,160
Speaker 1: at high school and one out of junior college and

828
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:40,399
Speaker 1: then just kind of being nitpicked and picked apart by

829
00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:44,680
Speaker 1: everybody it seems like in the media, But I really don't.

830
00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:47,400
Speaker 1: I tried truma best and not really pay attention to

831
00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:49,719
Speaker 1: all that stuff, and like I said, folks, on being

832
00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:51,560
Speaker 1: the best that I can be, and um, you know,

833
00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:56,280
Speaker 1: I'm a realist, and you know, I acknowledge the flaws

834
00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:58,759
Speaker 1: in my game and me trying to get better and

835
00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:01,680
Speaker 1: trying to work on these flaws and um, you know,

836
00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:03,560
Speaker 1: being self aware, in my opinion, is one of the

837
00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:05,640
Speaker 1: greatest traits that you can have, especially as a leader

838
00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:09,560
Speaker 1: of a football team. What's your biggest flaw? Um? I mean,

839
00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:12,399
Speaker 1: I think that you know, they're early on just being

840
00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:17,160
Speaker 1: the home run first mentality, you know, putting myself in

841
00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:20,239
Speaker 1: the ball in harm's way too early and you know,

842
00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:22,879
Speaker 1: too too often. And I think I've kind of toned

843
00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:24,799
Speaker 1: back on that and I've had a lot of help

844
00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:26,360
Speaker 1: along the way and being able to work on my

845
00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:29,920
Speaker 1: mechanics M one but two also times up with that

846
00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:32,279
Speaker 1: with uh, you know, the knowledge of the game and

847
00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:35,480
Speaker 1: knowledge of our offense and um, you know, I think

848
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:37,839
Speaker 1: in one area this this offseason I've gotten really good

849
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:41,080
Speaker 1: at is no one where I'm protected, no one where

850
00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:43,719
Speaker 1: um my eyes need to go. You know, I had

851
00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:46,480
Speaker 1: to snap, you know, trying to decipher what a defense

852
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:48,640
Speaker 1: is doing and then just trying to find the right answer.

853
00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:55,800
Speaker 1: Do you avoid the hits enough? Not enough? No? Um?

854
00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:57,920
Speaker 1: And I need to you know, going back to this

855
00:44:58,000 --> 00:44:59,680
Speaker 1: last game. There's a couple where I probably could have

856
00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:03,799
Speaker 1: just slip, but um something about you know, putting my

857
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:06,279
Speaker 1: body in the line for for my team. That no, no,

858
00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:12,719
Speaker 1: Josh from Josh, No, I I know, no, no, What

859
00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:15,160
Speaker 1: would your mom say if we lost? You? Like, you

860
00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:20,239
Speaker 1: can't do that? You slide? I know, and I get

861
00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:23,520
Speaker 1: the best ability is availability and I understand that. It

862
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:27,600
Speaker 1: just I slid once last game. I slid twice the

863
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:30,640
Speaker 1: game before. So I'm definitely keeping the tally found me

864
00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:33,479
Speaker 1: times I'm sliding. But uh, if if it's third down,

865
00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:35,400
Speaker 1: if it's forked down, I gotta put my body in

866
00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:37,040
Speaker 1: the line to to go get it. I'm gonna go

867
00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:39,279
Speaker 1: do it. You were a baseball player, you know how

868
00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:43,920
Speaker 1: to slide. Come on, I know I was more of

869
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:47,719
Speaker 1: a picture though. You still know how to slide. Yeah,

870
00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:52,960
Speaker 1: what's what's the worst yelling that you've got from coach McDermott,

871
00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:59,920
Speaker 1: Like the worst airing out? I Coach McDermott. He's more

872
00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:02,560
Speaker 1: kind of a defensive minded head coach, so he's he

873
00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:05,759
Speaker 1: just trying to tries to give me knowledge as far

874
00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:10,160
Speaker 1: as defensive terminology and scheme goes Coach Dable, it was

875
00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:14,480
Speaker 1: my first year and we were running just a simple

876
00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:16,919
Speaker 1: spot concept. It was a flat a little stick route

877
00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:18,799
Speaker 1: in the corner route and we were in the red

878
00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:21,600
Speaker 1: zone and the flat pop free right away and our

879
00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:23,480
Speaker 1: read it is bottom up. You read it low to

880
00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:27,800
Speaker 1: high load of high. And my buddy Austin Prole was

881
00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:30,160
Speaker 1: running the corner route and I try to stick in

882
00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:32,799
Speaker 1: the back shoulder and didn't work out. And I mean,

883
00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:35,759
Speaker 1: in my headset, immediately I could hear Coach Dable going off.

884
00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:38,640
Speaker 1: I look over to the side. He's beat red, and

885
00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:41,279
Speaker 1: I mean he let me have it for a good

886
00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:43,719
Speaker 1: five minutes. And then also he calmed down and he

887
00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:46,560
Speaker 1: starts thinking about it again, he gets even more angry.

888
00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:48,680
Speaker 1: But it's just one of those times where like I

889
00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:50,799
Speaker 1: knew what I knew, I was wrong, and there's nothing

890
00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:52,320
Speaker 1: I can say to you that's gonna make you feel

891
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:55,239
Speaker 1: better except go up the next time and read it

892
00:46:55,239 --> 00:47:00,520
Speaker 1: bottom up. You can't turn the volume down in your helmet, no,

893
00:47:00,680 --> 00:47:04,799
Speaker 1: unfortunately not, and you gotta eat like those are the

894
00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:06,719
Speaker 1: situations where you just kind of have to trust your

895
00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:09,319
Speaker 1: equipment manager and your equipment staff to be like, I

896
00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:11,360
Speaker 1: hope you guys didn't turn this too loud because sometimes

897
00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:13,960
Speaker 1: it is like kind of painful when and when he's

898
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:16,719
Speaker 1: screaming as you so um that that that was a

899
00:47:16,719 --> 00:47:18,879
Speaker 1: long time ago, and you know he hasn't had much

900
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:21,040
Speaker 1: to scream about in the last couple of years. So

901
00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:24,320
Speaker 1: that's that's been good. He's Josh Allen, the Bill's quarterback.

902
00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:31,279
Speaker 1: What was your welcome to the NFL momentum? I mean,

903
00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:35,600
Speaker 1: I think, you know, I was playing the Chargers that

904
00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:38,480
Speaker 1: was my first start. I think just kind of the

905
00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:40,560
Speaker 1: boat racing that they put on us that game, the

906
00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:44,480
Speaker 1: blizz the pressor um, you know, Melvin Ingram and Bosa

907
00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:46,920
Speaker 1: got after me a couple of times. I think Darwin

908
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:49,359
Speaker 1: James hit me pretty good, but I did shake off

909
00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:51,680
Speaker 1: one of his tackles. But I think it was that

910
00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:54,759
Speaker 1: game just being like this is fast, because I mean

911
00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:57,600
Speaker 1: I was thrown into the mix the week prior at half,

912
00:47:57,760 --> 00:48:01,960
Speaker 1: right after halftime against Baltimore, and like I said, it

913
00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:03,440
Speaker 1: was just going into my first start. I was so

914
00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:06,000
Speaker 1: excited for it and like things were just I mean

915
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:07,960
Speaker 1: I heard bullets fined by my head. I was just like,

916
00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:10,360
Speaker 1: oh my god, like I gotta be in tune and

917
00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:12,440
Speaker 1: ready to go, you know, and it was just kind

918
00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:14,160
Speaker 1: of eye opening. Then we go up next week and

919
00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:18,480
Speaker 1: we play Minnesota. At Minnesota, we're twenty point underdogs and

920
00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:21,080
Speaker 1: we come out and we kind of shocked the world there.

921
00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:23,640
Speaker 1: So that was one of those those cool moments. Did

922
00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:28,359
Speaker 1: your family still have the farm, Yeah, yeah they do,

923
00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:32,239
Speaker 1: and uh so we're traditionally a row crop, so we

924
00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:35,840
Speaker 1: do candle up cotton and wheat. But me and my

925
00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:38,960
Speaker 1: dad actually we purchased about one hundred acres worked of

926
00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:41,959
Speaker 1: pistachio trees. Or we're gonna start playing these probably in March,

927
00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:45,640
Speaker 1: So that's something I'm really excited about. Is it tougher

928
00:48:45,719 --> 00:48:51,200
Speaker 1: being a farmer or playing quarterback in the NFL? Farming

929
00:48:51,239 --> 00:48:54,239
Speaker 1: for sure. I Mean there's just so many elements that

930
00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:56,799
Speaker 1: you can't control the weather, and that's like one thing

931
00:48:57,400 --> 00:48:59,919
Speaker 1: farming needs. You need sunshine. You need a lot of rain,

932
00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:02,680
Speaker 1: and Central California doesn't seem to get too much of

933
00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:06,840
Speaker 1: the rain sometimes, so it's very hectic. And it's something

934
00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:09,080
Speaker 1: you know, I saw my dad struggle with and be

935
00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:12,920
Speaker 1: super smart about throughout my years, and he was always

936
00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:15,600
Speaker 1: my biggest role model with just his work ethic and um,

937
00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:18,359
Speaker 1: you know what he would do to provide for our family. So,

938
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:21,400
Speaker 1: you know, football, you just gotta make the right decisions

939
00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:23,600
Speaker 1: and make the right throws without trying to take too

940
00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:25,960
Speaker 1: many hits. Give me the quarterback you think would be

941
00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:33,640
Speaker 1: the worst farmer? Oh, in the league or on our

942
00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:41,080
Speaker 1: team in the league. Let's see. I think Herbert would

943
00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:44,080
Speaker 1: be a pretty good farming because he's he's a marine biologist, right,

944
00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:45,360
Speaker 1: and I think he would kind of get some of

945
00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:48,440
Speaker 1: that stuff. So, um, I don't know about that. Um

946
00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:54,120
Speaker 1: maybe Nick Foles, I don't know. He doesn't look like

947
00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:56,520
Speaker 1: he wants to get his hands dirty or what. No,

948
00:49:56,840 --> 00:49:59,920
Speaker 1: he's just I don't know, he's just uh, well he

949
00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:01,960
Speaker 1: how do you think how do you think Brady would do?

950
00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:05,240
Speaker 1: How do you think Brady would do on the farm there? Josh,

951
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:07,360
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. He's he's kind of

952
00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:11,000
Speaker 1: old timing. I think he gets a lot of things. Um,

953
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:14,360
Speaker 1: I just you know what, I take back, Nick, You know,

954
00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:16,799
Speaker 1: he's got a great relationship with God, and you know

955
00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:23,319
Speaker 1: the rain would come for I mean, so it would

956
00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:27,400
Speaker 1: rain forty days and forty nights, Josh, exactly exactly. So

957
00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:31,759
Speaker 1: I take that back, he'd probably be the best one. Um. Yeah,

958
00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:34,960
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. No, Brady would be farming,

959
00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:38,720
Speaker 1: he'd have kale, he'd have kale and yeah, he'd probably

960
00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:43,120
Speaker 1: have avocados and yeah, doing the smart and nutritional plants,

961
00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:45,399
Speaker 1: and he would need to be yelling at the cantalope

962
00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:50,799
Speaker 1: chewing it out. Yeah, I'm going with Sam. Um. You

963
00:50:50,800 --> 00:50:54,000
Speaker 1: know Sam, he's a social kid. He's a beechy guy

964
00:50:54,320 --> 00:50:56,640
Speaker 1: I've seen. I don't know if you'd survived on the farm, Sam,

965
00:50:56,680 --> 00:51:00,520
Speaker 1: Darnold wouldn't. Yeah. How often do you talk to Sale?

966
00:51:02,120 --> 00:51:05,160
Speaker 1: So we talked pretty often, probably at least once or

967
00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:10,440
Speaker 1: twice a week. Um, whether it's personal texts, if it's Instagram,

968
00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:14,920
Speaker 1: direct messages with our group chats, if it's call of duty, um,

969
00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:17,399
Speaker 1: you know, sometimes we get online and play video games

970
00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:20,719
Speaker 1: with each other. So it's it's pretty often. I love

971
00:51:20,719 --> 00:51:23,480
Speaker 1: what you're doing with this serial. Tell tell my audience

974
00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:34,440
Speaker 1: sports entertainment group that kind of allowed me to go

975
00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:36,960
Speaker 1: out and get a cereal. Um. But it's available at

976

Speaker 1: portion of the proceeds go to a Shy children's hospital,

978
00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:45,640
Speaker 1: and I've been working with the Shy since I first

979
00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:49,000
Speaker 1: got here, um three years ago, and um, you know,

980
00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:51,479

981
00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:55,520
Speaker 1: and you know, unfortunately throughout coronavirus UM, it's all been virtual.

982
00:51:55,640 --> 00:51:58,359
Speaker 1: But um, you know, it's something special to my heart

983
00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:01,080
Speaker 1: that this serial benefits such a good cause and it

984
00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:05,560
Speaker 1: can really help, um, you know, fund this hospital with

985
00:52:06,239 --> 00:52:08,920
Speaker 1: you know, necessities that they need, you know, especially trying

986
00:52:08,920 --> 00:52:11,840
Speaker 1: times like this. So it's been awesome and I'm really

987
00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:16,040
Speaker 1: looking forward to continue my relationship with HI hospital. Yeah,

988
00:52:16,040 --> 00:52:20,840

00:52:24,239 --> 00:52:27,440
Speaker 1: thinking about this with the pistachios. When you go to market,

1003
00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:19,200
Speaker 1: text at ten ten am this morning that would be

1004
00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:21,960
Speaker 1: the AM part of this morning, and it was an

1005
00:53:22,040 --> 00:53:27,480
Speaker 1: update on Wisconsin football. Their quarterback, Graham Merch, according to

1006
00:53:27,520 --> 00:53:30,279
Speaker 1: my source, in all likelihood, had COVID prior to the

1007
00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:33,600
Speaker 1: game against Illinois, but tested negative, was at all team

1008
00:53:33,640 --> 00:53:36,280
Speaker 1: activities leading up to the game, so it's spread throughout

1009
00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:41,240
Speaker 1: the team. A significant number of positives this week game

1010
00:53:41,239 --> 00:53:45,080
Speaker 1: with Nebraska growing doubtful and the Big Ten didn't build

1011
00:53:45,080 --> 00:53:50,320
Speaker 1: buys into their schedule. Multiple reports have the Wisconsin game

1012
00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:57,520
Speaker 1: against Nebraska that is being canceled. Wisconsin football team will

1013
00:53:57,600 --> 00:54:00,840
Speaker 1: pause all team related activities for at least seven days

1014
00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:04,319
Speaker 1: due to an elevated number of COVID nineteen cases within

1015
00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:07,279
Speaker 1: the Badgers program. Game against Nebraska on Saturday will not

1016
00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:10,879
Speaker 1: be played, and I don't believe they can make up

1017
00:54:10,920 --> 00:54:16,799
Speaker 1: these games. Plus your quarantine for three weeks, twenty one days. Yes, Ton,

1018
00:54:17,200 --> 00:54:19,920
Speaker 1: what's going through Larry Scott PAC twelve commissioner's mine and

1019
00:54:20,000 --> 00:54:22,080
Speaker 1: the PAC twelve This supposed to get started next week

1020
00:54:22,080 --> 00:54:24,080
Speaker 1: and they starts seeing stuff like this, that's a little

1021
00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:26,919
Speaker 1: scary if they're finally agreeing to play. Yeah point, what's

1022
00:54:26,920 --> 00:54:28,759
Speaker 1: going through their mind is probably they should have stuck

1023
00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:31,239
Speaker 1: with the SEC's plan, and that's what the Big Ten

1024
00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:33,360
Speaker 1: should have done weeks and they would have had wiggle

1025
00:54:33,440 --> 00:54:35,759
Speaker 1: room and built in bye weeks and things like this.

1026
00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:37,799
Speaker 1: If this happens to the SEC, they have room to

1027
00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:41,239
Speaker 1: move things. The Big Ten going in, going out, going

1028
00:54:41,239 --> 00:54:44,440
Speaker 1: in is why they're there now. So I don't know

1029
00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:46,680
Speaker 1: how many of these players are going to miss the

1030
00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:49,960
Speaker 1: next three games. You're gonna miss the Nebraska game. They

1031
00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:52,759
Speaker 1: have Michigan coming up? Who else do they have? McLevin?

1032
00:54:53,560 --> 00:54:56,440
Speaker 1: I think Indiana coming up? That might be outside of

1033
00:54:56,440 --> 00:54:59,560
Speaker 1: three weeks. Probably sorry if you already says the coach

1034
00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:05,440
Speaker 1: has its uh Paul Chris, Yeah, twelve players house, So yeah,

1035
00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:07,239
Speaker 1: I don't know when they play Ohio State. Hold, let

1036
00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:10,320
Speaker 1: me yea look at their schedule. So next week, the

1037
00:55:10,920 --> 00:55:15,640
Speaker 1: Bratska canceled hosting Purdue hosting, number going to Michigan, going

1038
00:55:15,680 --> 00:55:21,120
Speaker 1: to Northwestern hosting, Minnesota hosting. Well, that's okay. I only

1039
00:55:21,120 --> 00:55:23,600
Speaker 1: care about the next three yea three weeks here, so yeah,

1040
00:55:23,600 --> 00:55:27,440
Speaker 1: they don't. I don't see Ohio State on here, so

1041
00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:29,279
Speaker 1: I guess yeah, because it's a Big twelve, everyone can't

1042
00:55:29,280 --> 00:55:31,800
Speaker 1: play everyone, So it looks like the real one is

1043
00:55:32,040 --> 00:55:36,000
Speaker 1: eleven fourteen at Michigan. Yeah, and a lot of people

1044
00:55:36,040 --> 00:55:38,640
Speaker 1: had Wisconsin, you know, a second favorite two you know,

1045
00:55:38,719 --> 00:55:40,319
Speaker 1: get out of the Big Ten. They get somehow beat

1046
00:55:40,320 --> 00:55:42,960
Speaker 1: Ohio State in the Big Ten title game. There are

1047
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:46,640
Speaker 1: some people who are reporting the SEC went away from

1048
00:55:47,120 --> 00:55:51,239
Speaker 1: antigen testing because of false positives, but the test also

1049
00:55:51,320 --> 00:55:55,200
Speaker 1: produced false negatives. Looks like it could have happened here.

1050
00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:59,440
Speaker 1: Also false negatives were reported the reported route of a

1051
00:55:59,520 --> 00:56:03,160
Speaker 1: Baylor outbreak as well. But there's no room for error

1052
00:56:03,200 --> 00:56:07,120
Speaker 1: here in the Big Ten. You had a finite amount

1053
00:56:07,160 --> 00:56:09,920
Speaker 1: of weeks to get these games in and then hopefully

1054
00:56:09,960 --> 00:56:12,200
Speaker 1: you you know, are you're going to be able to

1055
00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:15,080
Speaker 1: qualify for a Bull Game or the Final four. That's

1056
00:56:15,120 --> 00:56:17,759
Speaker 1: what you're hoping for Ohio State here, But now these

1057
00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:20,120
Speaker 1: other schools are going to be impacted you're playing less

1058
00:56:20,160 --> 00:56:22,160
Speaker 1: games than the SEC in the Big twelve in the

1059
00:56:22,160 --> 00:56:26,680
Speaker 1: a SEC just to start out with. But yeah, this

1060
00:56:26,760 --> 00:56:30,040
Speaker 1: is this is a big deal in uh in Wisconsin.

1061
00:56:30,200 --> 00:56:34,799
Speaker 1: Yeah point oh yeah, you know that false negative like

1062
00:56:35,160 --> 00:56:37,640
Speaker 1: you can think that you're clean and spread it to people.

1063
00:56:37,719 --> 00:56:41,120
Speaker 1: That's like not just football but everywhere. That's kind of scary. Yeah.

1064
00:56:41,120 --> 00:56:43,520
Speaker 1: But the fact that your star quarterback likely had COVID

1065
00:56:43,600 --> 00:56:46,719
Speaker 1: prior to last week's game but tested negative, and then

1066
00:56:46,800 --> 00:56:49,160
Speaker 1: he's at all the team activities, and then your other

1067
00:56:49,239 --> 00:56:52,080
Speaker 1: quarterbacks they test positive as well. Your head coach test

1068
00:56:52,160 --> 00:56:56,000
Speaker 1: positive as well. This is the kind of situation due

1069
00:56:56,040 --> 00:57:00,319
Speaker 1: to the you know the protocol here in quarantining. This

1070
00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:04,080
Speaker 1: is three this is twenty one days, and you have

1071
00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:06,520
Speaker 1: no buy weeks and these games are not going to

1072
00:57:06,560 --> 00:57:08,680
Speaker 1: be able to be played. Like I don't I don't

1073
00:57:08,719 --> 00:57:11,399
Speaker 1: know how how many more positives you're going to have,

1074
00:57:11,520 --> 00:57:14,440
Speaker 1: Like how many would it take before or Wisconsin just

1075
00:57:14,480 --> 00:57:19,160
Speaker 1: says we can't field a football team. I don't know.

1076
00:57:19,280 --> 00:57:22,760
Speaker 1: The outbreak and your head coach and these I don't

1077
00:57:22,800 --> 00:57:26,880
Speaker 1: think these are four fits. I think they're called no contest.

1078
00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:31,400
Speaker 1: Nobody wins, nobody loses. I think is maybe the language

1079
00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:33,480
Speaker 1: there with the Big Ten. Yes, but isn't it a

1080
00:57:33,520 --> 00:57:35,400
Speaker 1: rush to get enough games where they can get into

1081
00:57:35,440 --> 00:57:38,680
Speaker 1: the Final four? Like what's that number supposed to be? Like,

1082
00:57:38,760 --> 00:57:41,040
Speaker 1: what do you have to get? Well, I think you're

1083
00:57:41,080 --> 00:57:44,640
Speaker 1: trying to get eight games. The only way that this

1084
00:57:44,680 --> 00:57:47,680
Speaker 1: would happen for Ohio State. Now, if Ohio State plays

1085
00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:52,000
Speaker 1: all eight games, which might be unlikely now, then that

1086
00:57:52,360 --> 00:57:54,760
Speaker 1: you pass the site test. That's what my source told

1087
00:57:54,760 --> 00:57:57,600
Speaker 1: me when this first started. Could they play eight games?

1088
00:57:58,320 --> 00:58:01,560
Speaker 1: And how good do they look at those eight games? Well,

1089
00:58:01,600 --> 00:58:04,880
Speaker 1: they look good in Week one against Nebraska, but you know,

1090
00:58:04,960 --> 00:58:07,240
Speaker 1: style points is what you need. Now, if all of

1091
00:58:07,280 --> 00:58:12,600
Speaker 1: a sudden, you're playing five games, six games, I think

1092
00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:14,280
Speaker 1: you're gonna be hard pressed to try to get a

1093
00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:18,040
Speaker 1: team from the Big ten into the Final four because

1094
00:58:18,080 --> 00:58:20,560
Speaker 1: I think the SEC and the ACC are probably gonna go,

1095
00:58:20,840 --> 00:58:23,120
Speaker 1: wait a minute, we're playing ten games. You guys are

1096
00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:27,000
Speaker 1: playing six. Yeah, And I'm looking at Ohio states schedule.

1097
00:58:27,080 --> 00:58:31,800
Speaker 1: They have some easy games too. Penn State is a

1098
00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:35,200
Speaker 1: tough one. By then Rudgurs Maryland, Indiana might be tough. Illinois,

1099
00:58:35,760 --> 00:58:38,960
Speaker 1: Michigan State who looks like they're down. And then the

1100
00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:43,880
Speaker 1: last game being in Michigan in Columbus. Yeah, there's some

1101
00:58:45,440 --> 00:58:50,200
Speaker 1: players tested positive for COVID with the Texans. Their facility

1102
00:58:50,240 --> 00:58:54,280
Speaker 1: has been closed. They didn't mention who the player is.

1103
00:58:54,320 --> 00:58:58,000
Speaker 1: I don't think, but the Texans announced earlier this morning

1104
00:58:58,040 --> 00:59:02,800
Speaker 1: they're closing their team facility. Player tested positive on Tuesday night.

1105
00:59:06,560 --> 00:59:10,160
Speaker 1: Do the Texans play this weekend? No, They're on a

1106
00:59:10,160 --> 00:59:12,920
Speaker 1: bye week. Okay, so that at least helps them a

1107
00:59:12,920 --> 00:59:18,840
Speaker 1: little bit. Every time you think, okay, maybe they've got

1108
00:59:18,840 --> 00:59:23,800
Speaker 1: it figured out, they don't. Like baseball, had fifty eight

1109
00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:26,760
Speaker 1: consecutive days, and then you have a player test positive

1110
00:59:26,800 --> 00:59:29,120
Speaker 1: in Game six of the World Series, the Big Ten,

1111
00:59:29,440 --> 00:59:33,240
Speaker 1: great weekend. Now you have this like this could impact

1112
00:59:33,240 --> 00:59:37,600
Speaker 1: Wisconsin's season. I mean it is impacting it from the

1113
00:59:37,640 --> 00:59:40,520
Speaker 1: standpoint of are they going to have a season and

1114
00:59:40,600 --> 00:59:43,480
Speaker 1: how many players are going to test positive? And your

1115
00:59:43,520 --> 00:59:46,120
Speaker 1: head coach is tested positive if your star quarterback has

1116
00:59:46,160 --> 00:59:49,680
Speaker 1: tested positive. Thanks for listening to The Dan Patrick Show podcast.
