1 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:20,880 Speaker 1: What is up? Mets fans? 2 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:23,759 Speaker 2: Welcome back to a somber episode of the Mets Stuff podcast. 3 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:28,040 Speaker 1: Sweep, Oh God, swept by the Rays. 4 00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:29,880 Speaker 2: I mean, listen, the Rays aren't a bad baseball team 5 00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:31,560 Speaker 2: by any means, better than I think a lot of 6 00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:34,800 Speaker 2: people thought, myself included going into the season. But that 7 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 2: was that they didn't really do anything in that series 8 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:38,760 Speaker 2: to make you be like, how do we not beat 9 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 2: the Tampa Bay Rays. I don't know what it is 10 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:44,040 Speaker 2: about playing this franchise, and maybe someone will have the stats. 11 00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:45,440 Speaker 1: We don't have notes for this one. 12 00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:47,880 Speaker 2: We were just like, let's do ten minutes off the 13 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 2: cuff about what just happened. 14 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 1: In the worst series of the year. 15 00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 2: It feels like every time we played the Tampa Bay Rays, 16 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,960 Speaker 2: we have no idea what's going on. It's always like 17 00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 2: a cyclone. We're like, oh my goodness, how did we 18 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:01,960 Speaker 2: lose again to them? I think the last time that 19 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 2: I remember playing well was when we had the walk 20 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 2: off home run, when we had Ay bros. Out in 21 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 2: right field. Shout to the Aaron Cheney bros. That they're still 22 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 2: listening to this. That was like the last good series 23 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 2: I remember against Rais. But it feels like every single 24 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 2: time they come to town they beat the shit out of us. 25 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 2: It wasn't even close, especially in the last two games. 26 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 2: It was just it was disappointing. Before we get going 27 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,360 Speaker 2: into it, remember subscribe to the mess Up podcast YouTube 28 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 2: channel for all the video content you want to see 29 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:26,600 Speaker 2: over there. 30 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:27,680 Speaker 1: Shout out to the members. 31 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:29,560 Speaker 2: A bunch of you just joined to ninety nine a 32 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 2: month you get early access to all the videos and 33 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 2: a monthly live stream Q and A. 34 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:34,680 Speaker 1: So we do appreciate the sport over there. 35 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 2: If you're listening to us Apple podcasts, Spotify, Google drops 36 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:39,960 Speaker 2: the rating, drops a review, download and subscribe, and if 37 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 2: you follow us on social media at mess Up, Twitter, Instagram, 38 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 2: and TikTok, we really do appreciate it. I want to 39 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 2: address one thing I saw some people complain about the 40 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 2: ads recently on the audio side. 41 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 1: It's not anything we can control. 42 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 2: It's on a back end thing where we place ads 43 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 2: and they decide what ads go, they decide how long 44 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 2: they run for. So I just want that to be 45 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 2: known hand Up not on us YouTube. We can control 46 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 2: that on YouTube, but if you're listening it's a little 47 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 2: bit different. I wanted that to be said though from 48 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 2: the start, let's talk about this race series. Also, Happy 49 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,240 Speaker 2: Father's Day to all the dads out there, if you 50 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 2: are still. 51 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 1: Celebrating on Monday. I don't know how that works, but 52 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 1: the race series bad happy belated Father's Day. It's all 53 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 1: the father's out there, but no bad, bad series. And 54 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 1: it felt like there was a stark tone shift in 55 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: this series where it felt like the party was still 56 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: going after a hot The Mets had been through Friday 57 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 1: through the first five innings of the game, and then 58 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: Tyler McGill was taken out of the game. Uh and 59 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: after Tyler go oh my god, Freudian slipt there, Clay 60 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: Holmes was taken out of the game after five innings 61 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: on Friday night, and then the Rays got hot, and 62 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 1: then every single thing changed in the dime the entire series. 63 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: The Life got stucked out of the city field on 64 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 1: Friday night. Saturday, the Life got sucked out similarly by 65 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 1: Tyler McGill himself, which we'll talk about it a little bit, 66 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,920 Speaker 1: but that exact moment when Clay Holmes got taken out 67 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: of the game tone shift of the series, and you 68 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:57,799 Speaker 1: did feel like the Mets kind of got punched in 69 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: the gut and they didn't really decide to show up 70 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 1: for either of the next two games after that. 71 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, Cityfield was rocking on Friday. It was Pride Night. 72 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 2: And I say this like respectfully. It was so gay 73 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 2: at the ballpark, like they were everybody was wearing rainbow. 74 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 2: There were just a ton of pride, a ton of 75 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 2: really really fun, just great atmosphere. People were dancing, people 76 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 2: were screaming, people were going Wow. The ballpark was raucous. 77 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 2: Early early on, we tried to get into the K 78 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 2: corner and they were doing like a drag show. 79 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: It was packed. You could not get into the K 80 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 1: corner two hours before the game. So the place was jumping. 81 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 1: People were excited, everyone was ready to go. 82 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 2: And like you said, the moment that Clay Holmes came 83 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 2: out of this game, that's when things started to shift. 84 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 2: And I don't in the moment, I didn't understand why 85 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 2: Clay Holmes was pulled at the stadium. I was like, 86 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 2: I didn't. 87 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: I didn't get that. 88 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 2: It felt like while he didn't have his best stuff again, 89 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 2: he wasn't getting any swings and misses, which is crazy 90 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 2: because the Rays actually do strike out a good bit 91 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 2: and they don't walk at all. They strike out like 92 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 2: top third of the league and they walk bottom third, 93 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 2: which is crazy because you wouldn't know it watching this series. 94 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 2: But I thought that Clay Hoolmes had one more in 95 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 2: where I had the issue with. What happened though, was 96 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 2: that Braza Bond was warming up and so was Blackburn, 97 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 2: and I felt like we tried to get a little 98 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 2: bit cute and used Blackburn in a multi inning situation 99 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 2: when the game was still four runs in the fifth 100 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 2: inning or sixth inning, whatever it was. 101 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 1: That's still a little close. At that point. You still 102 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 1: have four full at bats if you're the Tampa bay 103 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 1: Rays totally and watching this game and covering this game 104 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 1: Friday night for NBC Sports, like, I was able to 105 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 1: get a little more sense of what was going on, 106 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 1: and Carls Mendoza addressed all these things after. But in 107 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: that fifth inning, Clay Holmes threw a trio of maybe 108 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: two and a half three ninety mile hour fastballs or sinkers. 109 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: Once I saw those nineties, I was like, hmm, that's 110 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 1: not that great of a thing. And then after the game, 111 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: Carls Mendoza said that he worked extra hard after the 112 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:44,840 Speaker 1: altitude and didn't recover as well as the team with 113 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:46,720 Speaker 1: have hoped. So going into the start, they knew it 114 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: was a guaranteed five inning max, which I think, I 115 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: don't know. The bullshit meaning went up a tiny bit 116 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 1: on that little tiny bit. I think mostly what it 117 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,839 Speaker 1: is is the fact that Klay Holmes already exceeded his 118 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 1: endings limit from last season the season before the season 119 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: before that, there's already the most innings Clay Holmes ever 120 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 1: thrown in a Major League Baseball season. So I do 121 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: think understanding that, and with how well Clay Holmes is pitched, 122 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 1: it's important to kind of be able to save him 123 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 1: a little bit as we stay in these middle months 124 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 1: and we have a good Clay Homes for the tail 125 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: end of the season. I think this team very much 126 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: wants a good Clay Homes to end the season with. 127 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,359 Speaker 1: So I understand trying to pick and choose these moments 128 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: where we're gonna limit Clay Holmes to seventy to eighty pitches, 129 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: get him out of the game, and a June game 130 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: and for the four run lead, to me, it's the 131 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: perfect time to do it. But I do agree with 132 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:35,159 Speaker 1: you on the Blackburn decision and again, Mendoza reference to this, 133 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 1: saying that they knew Blackburn was scheduled going to stay 134 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 1: on schedule to make the start in this upcoming series 135 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 1: against the Braves, so if he was going to pitch 136 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: and relief, it had to be in this game. So 137 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: I think in that moment they were like, ah, let's 138 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 1: just get him up. Let's just do that. Brozbond. I 139 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 1: think it was warming up in case the trouble that 140 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 1: Clay Holmes was getting in in the fifth inning, were 141 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 1: that in case there was trouble to happen in the 142 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 1: fifth inning. Happened because there was a one, two three 143 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 1: inning there, so then they were like, clean inning Blackburn. 144 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: The issue with this whole thing is Paul Blackburn having nothing, 145 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 1: not executing and just letting the race get back into 146 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 1: this game. That was the issue. Paul Blackburn pitches too 147 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 1: clean innings. This is no conversation or Met's win the game. 148 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: No big deal is why don't I can't really fault 149 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 1: Carlton Dozes for a decision. I think process wise it 150 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: was tolerable, but execution wise very bad on Paul Blackburn. 151 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, Paul Blackburn looked horrible, Like I think everybody is 152 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 2: like fears of Paul Blackburn, where as good as he's 153 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 2: looked like the last couple of times he went out 154 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,279 Speaker 2: there against the Dodgers and then it was what against 155 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,479 Speaker 2: the Rockies, right, he gave us all those innings, it 156 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 2: was like very valuable. But similarly to where like Clay 157 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,719 Speaker 2: Holmes might have looked a little bit tired working back hard, 158 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 2: it looked like Paul Blackburn had not adjusted to being 159 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:36,039 Speaker 2: at C level yet either, despite being home for four days. 160 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 2: I mean, he just had absolutely nothing from pitch one. 161 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:41,280 Speaker 2: He had nothing, and I felt like. 162 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:42,720 Speaker 3: It. 163 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 2: It felt like just trying to get a little bit cute, 164 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 2: I know, the process thing there, but even still Paul 165 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,039 Speaker 2: Blackburn is the long guy. I felt like trying to 166 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:53,159 Speaker 2: fit him in because if there was every scenario, who's 167 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:53,719 Speaker 2: gonna be used? 168 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:54,919 Speaker 1: This was the only chance. 169 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,359 Speaker 2: I don't like that being the reasoning to have to 170 00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 2: use somebody, or why you use somebody? 171 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 1: I think because that inning started with the middle of 172 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: the raised lineup too. It's also that was that was 173 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 1: Brandon Laddles coming into the inning, who I believe was 174 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 1: hitting second that night, So that's kind of an issue there. 175 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 1: But yeah, I think in their perfect world. They were 176 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 1: like Blackburn for two then go to the A team 177 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: and get out of another game like that. I think 178 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: that was the idea. That was the concept. It's not 179 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 1: the worst again, the worst idea I've ever heard, but 180 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: just it all comes back to Paul Blackburn having to 181 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 1: be better. He just wasn't better. That was the problem. Also, 182 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 1: the metro fortunate in scheme even to build that lead, 183 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: that was like chaos. All five of the runs against 184 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:31,080 Speaker 1: TODs Bradley were unearned. You were kind of you kind 185 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 1: of had a chance to like step on the throat 186 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 1: after getting incredibly lucky, and they just really kind of 187 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 1: blew it. And then there were chances late in this 188 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 1: game for them to get back in it. To saw 189 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 1: the fly ball in the eighth inning that was that 190 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 1: that broke my heart and also jumped out of my 191 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 1: seat and screamed. I thought, as soon as that ball 192 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 1: was hit, it was a no doubt home run. 193 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 3: What do you hit it? 194 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 1: One twelve and it was a homer in most ballparks, 195 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: I think. I think it was also based on the 196 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 1: battered balls over the last few years, a home run 197 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 1: like something like seventy percent of the time, and now 198 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: we did get reports this weekend, you know, Sarah's trellic 199 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 1: and uh Andrew mccutchon of all sortss that Major League 200 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: Baseball has again in a why theer sense adjusted to baseball? 201 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 1: So this flying lesson in the year more drag on 202 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 1: the ball? 203 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 2: Why can't why can't they just leave the baseballs alone? 204 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 2: Why are we fucking with the height of the seams? 205 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 2: Whyle we fuck with the leather? What the center of gravity? 206 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 2: Why are we fucking with the baseballs this much? You 207 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 2: know who's never complained about things? No one's ever like 208 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 2: all these baseballs too normal? This year, we gotta change 209 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 2: it up. We gotta make something crazy happen. Baseball has 210 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 2: been too good. Let's stop the home runs and makes 211 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:33,959 Speaker 2: the balls drag more. It doesn't make any sense to me. 212 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 1: Especially when last season offense was down also, and now 213 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 1: this season they do it again. But also Major League 214 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 1: Baseball denied culpability, being like all the balls are made 215 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 1: different hands sown, Yeah, handstone baseballs. We don't really know 216 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 1: what's going on. And also my antenna always goes up 217 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,320 Speaker 1: a little bit when these big baseball stories come out 218 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 1: with slight cooperation from Major League Baseball because we do 219 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,559 Speaker 1: know going back two years ago that Major League Baseball 220 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: has given different balls different teams in different situations. Willing 221 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 1: and yeah, we figured this out. Bradford. William Davis married 222 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 1: with Willis. The physicists who I've told you guys, anyone 223 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 1: has a beat on baseballs, hit me up getting my DMS, 224 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:09,559 Speaker 1: because this is something that we always have to be 225 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: aware of. Because it happened once when Aaron Judge was 226 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 1: chasing the seventh most home runs in single season in 227 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: baseball history, and what Mets achievement. Of course they'll remember 228 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: for the rest of our lives, but frustrating when these instances, 229 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 1: instances happened like this, will want so. But again, there 230 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:23,199 Speaker 1: are also guys on base in the sixth, guys based 231 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 1: in the seventh. I think two for sixteen with runners 232 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,479 Speaker 1: in scoring position on Friday Night, like pretty pretty impossible 233 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,680 Speaker 1: to win games. Garrett Clevenger just owns Brandon Nemo two 234 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: a crazy moment in this game where you see it 235 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,199 Speaker 1: so rarely because so few teams have this many good 236 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 1: left handed relievers. Where Kevin Cash went from a lefty 237 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 1: Mason Montgomery to another lefty, Garrett Clevenger, just because I 238 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 1: think the way his pitches movell I'm better with the 239 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 1: way brand Nemos wings because twice in this yeraries Garrett 240 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: Clevenger undressed Brand in them. I mean, he also has 241 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,320 Speaker 1: this frosting stuff. The whole bulpen has discussed soulf. It's 242 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: amazing that every single year you get to the Rays bullpen, 243 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 1: there's never any repeat defenders, all different guys, and every 244 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:00,599 Speaker 1: single year they're all great. But again, every one of 245 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: those innings in a two run game we challenged. Again, 246 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 1: shoutout Justin Gardzan for getting through a getting through two 247 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 1: solid innings to keep this game at two runs, but 248 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 1: we just couldn't get the big hit. I feel like 249 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: this really led into Saturday's game where Tyler and McGill just, 250 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm so mad and frustrated with this guy 251 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:22,719 Speaker 1: because as usual, he flashes great stuff. He's getting through 252 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 1: the first few winnings, change slider looks amazing, the fastballs buzzing, 253 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,959 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, Tyler McGill gets to what 254 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,680 Speaker 1: was it the third inning, the fourth inning in error, 255 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:35,959 Speaker 1: and then he just completely melts down. This was this 256 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,199 Speaker 1: was a twenty twenty two Tyler and McGill melt down 257 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,200 Speaker 1: where after the error there was a pitch in the dirt, 258 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 1: and then he doesn't cover first base, doesn't cover home plate, 259 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 1: and you're just like, why carry you the way you are? 260 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 1: Why can't you take this man? This is good. This 261 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:50,560 Speaker 1: is the epitome of the you what meme, because this 262 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 1: is who Tyler McGill is for. He flashes, but this 263 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 1: guy can't get his life together. Every time you give 264 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 1: him a chance, he breaks her heart again. It's like, 265 00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,959 Speaker 1: why why does this keep happening? The exact mental step 266 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: that David Pearson has taken we've given him so much 267 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:06,160 Speaker 1: credit for, is the exact heartlet. Tyler McGill just can't 268 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 1: seem to climb. And it's so frustrating every fifth day 269 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 1: to watch this guy get to the edge and then 270 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 1: fall apart. 271 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've gotten to the point where I feel almost 272 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 2: numb to watching Tyler McGill pitch because the highs are 273 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 2: incredible and the lows are devastatingly low. Like he lost 274 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 2: that game for the Mets on Saturday, His performance fielding, pitching, everything, 275 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 2: his body language was some of the worst body bags 276 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 2: that I've seen on a mountain so long. 277 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 1: And it's like, I know your big drip. I know 278 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:36,199 Speaker 1: this is kind of your thing, that you are a 279 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 1: little bit of a mope here in there, but like, 280 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 1: what the fuck, man, Like your stuff is so good? 281 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: Be a dog. We've seen it before, Like we always 282 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 1: talk about that Philly Start Sunday Night Baseball going up 283 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 1: agains Zach Wheeler. He fucking won that game. 284 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,679 Speaker 2: That was a massive, massive win for the Mets, and 285 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 2: we really thought that that was gonna be like go 286 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 2: back circle moment, the moment for Tyler McGill. And it's 287 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 2: unbelieveably frustrating that it's not. Because it's not. I think 288 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:04,080 Speaker 2: we have to get past the point now where it's 289 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 2: just like this is probably the picture he is. There's 290 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:09,080 Speaker 2: gonna be times where he's okay, There's gonna be times 291 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 2: where you want to rip your hair out, there's gonna 292 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 2: be times when he's dominant, and ultimately he's just a 293 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 2: back end guy that's gonna keep getting up and down 294 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 2: and fluctuate until he ever figures it out. 295 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 1: It might not be here with the Mets. 296 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 2: I don't know what it's gonna take for this guy 297 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 2: to actually figure it the fuck out consistently. 298 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 4: It's so annoying it is summertime. We are in the 299 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:29,559 Speaker 4: thick of golf season. It's always golf season down in Florida, 300 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 4: but we're in the thick of golf season across the 301 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 4: country and someone's looking to get a new club. That 302 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 4: logo should say it all p XG. What do they do? 303 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 3: Go get fitted? 304 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 5: Do get fitted by one of their master fitters, professional fitters. 305 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:47,119 Speaker 5: I've done it.

See site for details. 319 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 1: This feels like the reincarnation of the Nick Pavetta situation 320 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 1: with the Phillies and the Red Sox, where it's like 321 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:31,959 Speaker 1: you get these couple weeks at a time, you get 322 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 1: this month, this flash, and you're like, damn, this guy's 323 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 1: so good, and then all of a sudden something goes 324 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 1: wrong and then it all falls apart. Where Pavetta did 325 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 1: it in a more of a fiery way, where seemed 326 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 1: like he was just more outwardly of a bit of 327 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 1: a dick for lack of a better term, when McGill 328 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 1: is just the mope and all. The thing that pissed 329 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 1: me off the most about this McGill start was that 330 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:49,680 Speaker 1: he gave up the first run of this game. The 331 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 1: third inning, the race hit the ball around a little bit, 332 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: he got out of it with two big outs to 333 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:54,959 Speaker 1: strike out Joathan Miranda with guys on base, end the 334 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,199 Speaker 1: ending bet down a little bit, and the next inning, 335 00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 1: bang Brett Baty was like nights that bat smokes the 336 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 1: ball one of the best hit balls Brett baitys had. 337 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:05,439 Speaker 1: Hopefully he can kind of turn his corner a little bit, 338 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:07,840 Speaker 1: and after that home run, two out rally by the 339 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: Mets together another run home at the top Togland door 340 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: double who had a much better series, and then Nimo single, 341 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 1: and then the next inning after his team bought him 342 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 1: a lead, after he gave it up. First is when 343 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 1: the chaos happens, and it's clear that this kind of 344 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: all started. I think when Junior Camperenaro just hit a 345 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 1: piss rocket off him and a two strike pitch that 346 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: he did not execute for some reason during a two 347 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 1: strike sinker up on his own. This is what we're saying. 348 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:31,720 Speaker 1: Either it strike, it was one two pitch. 349 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 2: Again, I mentioned that this race team chases, they swing 350 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 2: and miss and they don't walk, and this series, the 351 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 2: Rays didn't swing and miss. They barely chased them, they 352 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 2: didn't and they walked a ton. Like what was was 353 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 2: the game planning off on these guys too? 354 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 1: Or did the pitchers just shit the bed? Oh? I 355 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 1: think sometimes sometimes just get high. If the team gets high, 356 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: the team gets high. You can't do anything about that. 357 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 1: But again, it just comes to back to the fact 358 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: that he gets into this inning with the lead. And 359 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 1: also the craziest part about the whole inning too, is 360 00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 1: that the race did give us an outa the sacrifice 361 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 1: bunts inside the inning that. 362 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 2: He literally I've never seen someone drop a baseball in 363 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 2: the way that Tyler McGill. He fielded it completely normally, 364 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 2: and he dropped it on his way back. The ball 365 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 2: was in his hand, he was going to make the throw, 366 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 2: and his arm went forward and the ball fell out. 367 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 1: I've never seen that happen. Liked he have butter on 368 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: his hands. What was going on? He needed some sticky stuff. 369 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: The Rays were handing you the second out of the 370 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 1: inning when only one run was home, and all you 371 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 1: had to do then was to get one out to preserve, 372 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 1: to preserve a tigh game in the million And then 373 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 1: he became a little bit of a theme in this 374 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 1: series too. The Razers like, oh, the Mets can't field bunts. 375 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 2: We had a gat one in Game three on Sunday 376 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 2: where they put down a bunch Brett Baty went to 377 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 2: cover third Griffin Canning thought that he was going to 378 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 2: go charge the ball. The Mets played some really, really 379 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 2: bad defense this series as well. 380 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 1: It was really emphasized on Sunday too, the fact that 381 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: it was just this was like one of the first 382 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 1: no show up games the Mets have had this season 383 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 1: where they slept walk through the whole thing. They barely 384 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 1: ever challenged. The Rays tacked on. Seemed like every single 385 00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 1: time they had half of an opportunity to they just 386 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 1: The Mets got fucked up in this series. Yeah, and 387 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 1: this is really the first times happened all year. The 388 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 1: Mets of the second to last team major League Baseball 389 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 1: to get swept somehow, the Cincinnati Reds the last team standing, 390 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 1: the only team Baseball not You're right? Is that crazy? 391 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 1: The only team Baseball not to be swept the season, 392 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Reds, who just climbed over five hundred. And 393 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: I went through this after the game because my uncle 394 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 1: defiantly told me the Mets of the last team to 395 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 1: get swept. I was about to put it in my 396 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 1: game ending notes tweet, and my dad's like fact check him. 397 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 1: I started going through every team schedule alphabetically. Luckily, the 398 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 1: Reds are the one that hasn't see came up early. 399 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 1: They've lost series this year to the Pirates, the White Sox, 400 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 1: the Marlins, and Nationals, but they have not been swept 401 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 1: by any good teams. What crazy, very bizarre, and end 402 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: the Reds are climbing over five hundred actually paying very 403 00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 1: good baseball right now. But again, that's besides the point 404 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 1: Mets got fucked up in this series. There's really no 405 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 1: positives at all to pull, besides maybe the fact that 406 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: Tyadcock might might have become a demon in the offseason 407 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 1: ninety nine a couple of times that slyer look good. 408 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 2: Tell me if I'm wrong, But I feel like I 409 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 2: remember this happening with rud Garrett because he technically was 410 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 2: on the toy twenty two Mets, and I remember he 411 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 2: came into a game because me and you were there 412 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:04,399 Speaker 2: all the time working for the team, and we're like, 413 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 2: who is this guy? And he threw like ninety six 414 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 2: with the splitter. 415 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:07,439 Speaker 1: We're like okay. 416 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 2: And then the next year he came up with the 417 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:12,120 Speaker 2: Mets and we're like ninety eight with the splitter, Wait, 418 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 2: hold on and a sweeper, Like are the Mets cooking? 419 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,199 Speaker 2: Is this is could be happening with Tyadcock a little bit. 420 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 2: What makes you say he's a little bit of a 421 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 2: demon besides just throwing ninety eight anything else? 422 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, picking up a few ticks, and also the fact 423 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 1: that slider was just looked like it was the moving 424 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 1: on it was kind of shocking. The rais a little 425 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 1: bit where last year that slider got hit hard kind 426 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:30,359 Speaker 1: of sat with this year, I had a little bit 427 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: a little bit more bite to that little tight gyro slider. 428 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,240 Speaker 1: But we also saw this with Max Krank over the 429 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 1: last year with the stuff really seemed to tick up 430 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 1: after a full off season with the team. That said, yeah, 431 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,080 Speaker 1: it also did didn't pitch very well all and after 432 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,880 Speaker 1: he was pitching very well last time Stannic Watch bad 433 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 1: again bad really Stannic bad. I said it last time. 434 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,720 Speaker 1: We're on standing splither with Watch because we're going on 435 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,680 Speaker 1: a full month. Ryan Stanek has not got a swing 436 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 1: and miss on his splitter. 437 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,440 Speaker 2: He's not even throwing it. He's just doing all fastballs 438 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:58,719 Speaker 2: right now. And he threw a couple of sweepers at 439 00:17:58,720 --> 00:17:58,960 Speaker 2: the game. 440 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,639 Speaker 1: It said on trying to get a sweeper going, you know, 441 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,200 Speaker 1: it's those There's some a lot of the regression that 442 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 1: would due with this patching staff is kind of happening. 443 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:08,919 Speaker 1: Once Samuel griff canningase I I mentioned the last episode 444 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 1: where the whole thing Griffin cannon is the fact that 445 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: he's pitching backwards. The teams are starting to hit they're 446 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:14,680 Speaker 1: starting to sit slyther. He has to be able to 447 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 1: spot that change up and if he can't spot it, 448 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,439 Speaker 1: especial against the right handed batters, it's nothing. And these guys, 449 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 1: the Rays were sitting back his whole game. They didn't 450 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 1: swing in anything. Nilo Gryffin Cannon walked them around the 451 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 1: bases in the first two I. 452 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:26,720 Speaker 2: Was gonna say I also felt like Griffin Cannon couldn't 453 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 2: throw first pitch strike either. The amount of curve balls 454 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 2: that he are not curveballs cutters that he missed up 455 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 2: in a way to left handed batters was shocking, Like 456 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 2: that's not really a spot that you missed with cutters often. 457 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 1: No, it was. It's bad, and I think that it's bad, 458 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 1: but in the sense that I don't think I'm not 459 00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 1: like pull Griff cannoning out of the rotation. But just 460 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,159 Speaker 1: the fact that what was happening before isn't real. This 461 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 1: big being this bad isn't real either, But there was. 462 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 1: It was always a fine line he was walking towards 463 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 1: the effectiveness now's happening at once. It does suck that 464 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:57,200 Speaker 1: this is all happening as Tyler McGill's falling apart, as 465 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: co saying goes on the injury list, as Frank Kimant 466 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 1: says can't get out of second ending sin Syracuse, Tripot 467 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 1: Hi A Brooklyn. So yeah, I don't know. I'm not 468 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: sounding any of our bulls. I'm like, I really hope 469 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:10,159 Speaker 1: that we have a stretch right now where maybe the 470 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:11,920 Speaker 1: bats can just score seven runs, like six games in 471 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 1: a row because the season I've kept saying it on Twitter, 472 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 1: and I'm really honest about this, The season is about 473 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 1: to start this week. Yeah, Tuesday, the met season starts. 474 00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 1: We've had a really good preseason here where we've built 475 00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:25,200 Speaker 1: up a nice a nice cushion, but the season is 476 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,360 Speaker 1: beginning because we're now playing the Braves for the first 477 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 1: time all season seven times and ten days with Philly 478 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 1: Series Sandwich in the middle of it. We have a 479 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 1: nice one month stretch to get to the All Star 480 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 1: break and try and maintain everything that we've built up 481 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:39,800 Speaker 1: this season. As the pitching is at its most fragile 482 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 1: state of the entire season, starting to hit but still 483 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,640 Speaker 1: not fully clicking yet. The bullpen's also in a bit 484 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 1: of a fragile state right now. We're really starting to 485 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 1: rotate through the glob of chaos, a lot of nonsense 486 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:52,199 Speaker 1: happening there. This is, this is going to be of 487 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: critical stretch to the Met season over this next four 488 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:55,680 Speaker 1: weeks so until the All Star break. 489 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 2: It would not only be nice to win a bunch 490 00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 2: of games up up this next stretch, but I've a 491 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,359 Speaker 2: bunch of like deep good pitching performances by the starting pitching, 492 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 2: some nice calm bullpen performances. Get back to the get 493 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 2: back to business, because I hated what I saw this weekend. 494 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 2: It was an unenjoyable watch. Like you said, from that 495 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 2: sixth thnning on on Friday night, it was on some 496 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 2: of the some of the worst baseball I've watched in 497 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 2: a long time Mets play. 498 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 1: And it was sleepy weather in New York. It was 499 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:23,480 Speaker 1: misty and raindy and chili the whole weekend. Father weird 500 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 1: to have a cold Father's Day.

It's critical that the Mets shape up 503 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 1: because we again are starting the most critical stretch we've 504 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,879 Speaker 1: played this season so far with Braves, Phillies, Braves, a 505 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:39,160 Speaker 1: nice tang games gauntlet happening for for the next week 506 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 1: and a half here, which is it is bullshit scheduling, 507 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 1: but it's it's important.

I 534 00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 1: think a lot of people on Twitter pulling that I 535 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:01,440 Speaker 1: believe what happened. I want to know you think about 536 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 1: it because we haven't really talked about it yet. Yeah. 537 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:06,360 Speaker 2: So one Devs hit a home run against the Yankees 538 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:09,159 Speaker 2: today to help them sweep the first place Yankees and Boston. 539 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:10,639 Speaker 2: The Red Sox are playing some of the best baseball 540 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 2: they've played all year, probably the best. He gives an 541 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:15,920 Speaker 2: interview after the game to media, talking about how the 542 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 2: team's starting to play well. 543 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: He thinks that they have so much left to give. 544 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:20,399 Speaker 1: He can't wait to see what's happening. 545 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:22,920 Speaker 2: He's excited for the rest of the season, and then 546 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 2: he gets traded to the San Francisco Giants. I was 547 00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 2: taking a little car nap because we were coming back 548 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:29,920 Speaker 2: from the game. Went with my dad and my mom 549 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,199 Speaker 2: for Father's Day, got a nice suite which was really awesome, 550 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 2: cool little experience. And on the drive home, my phone 551 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 2: starts going crazy, start getting phone calls. I wake up 552 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 2: to one hundred texts and I'm like what, And James 553 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 2: just text me. He's like, dude, that's all I get 554 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 2: from him, dude Devers. And I was like, oh, who 555 00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:48,200 Speaker 2: was he shot? Like did something terrible happened? Like what's 556 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:48,680 Speaker 2: going on? 557 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:52,360 Speaker 1: I thought Rafael Devers died before I thought he got trade. 558 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 1: That's how insane this trade was. It wasn't even on 559 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:56,119 Speaker 1: my radar. 560 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 2: And then to see he went to the Giants and 561 00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 2: the hall that they got back, and I say hall very, 562 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 2: very lightly, because it's it's a load of shit, let's 563 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 2: be honest. For the quality of player that Rafaeld Nevers is, 564 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 2: it's absolutely fucking nothing. What a terrible time to be 565 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 2: a Red Sox fan. What a horrible look for that organization. 566 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 2: I thank god every single day we have Steve Cohen 567 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 2: and David Stearns running this team, because holy shit, that's like, 568 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 2: that's worse than the Mets would even do in the 569 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 2: Will Pond days. 570 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 1: I think it's far worse. I also do think. I 571 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:23,680 Speaker 1: want to call out a lot of mess censer, like 572 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 1: how could we have not put this together? Where the 573 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:28,119 Speaker 1: most important part of this trade, by far was that 574 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 1: the San Francisco Giants took on every single cent of 575 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 1: Rothfaeld Devers contract remaining, which I believe is about seven 576 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:36,679 Speaker 1: years and two hundred and fifty million dollars. Amazingly, in 577 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:38,960 Speaker 1: taking that part of the contract on, not that part 578 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 1: the entire contract on, they are still about eight million 579 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,200 Speaker 1: dollars clear of the first threshold of the luxury tax. 580 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 1: This was serendipathy for this Giant's see, this was Buster 581 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 1: Posey sitting in a room with the fellas being like, hey, 582 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,960 Speaker 1: let's do something crazy. Well, we heard from Buster only 583 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,639 Speaker 1: that there weren't shopping him. The Red Sox were not 584 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,120 Speaker 1: actively shopping him. But if you called them and said 585 00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:59,199 Speaker 1: what do you got for us Nevers, they wouldn't hang 586 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,119 Speaker 1: up the phone. So I think Buster Posey, after the 587 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:02,879 Speaker 1: game is swinging the bat pretty well, let me give 588 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,120 Speaker 1: the Red Sox call. He's like, hey, Craig Ruffield Evers, 589 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 1: you want to make a trade. 590 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 2: He's like, sure, how about Kyle Harrison Jordan Hicks, who 591 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 2: sucks James Tibbs and Jose Bao and Posy's like, that's it. 592 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 2: He's again, you paid the contract. He's like done deal, 593 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 2: no problem. Where do I sign? 594 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,399 Speaker 1: Especially because we've gone on years now openly where the 595 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: Giants have been begging stars to take to take their money, 596 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 1: and well it has not happened. I kind of had 597 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:28,080 Speaker 1: to probably make a deal that I'm sure they regret 598 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 1: at this point. And Willie Damas' off season because he's 599 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,159 Speaker 1: been horrible at start of the four Yeah, still be 600 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 1: still still a good player. I still expect a Damas 601 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 1: kind of like what we've talked about with like the doors, 602 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:37,679 Speaker 1: so the belt try in the past, probably get it 603 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 1: together by next year. But he have some warning signs 604 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 1: with his batspeed dropping significantly compared to the rest of 605 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 1: his career. Glad digress. But the Giants, he was playing well, 606 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,440 Speaker 1: they're playing over their skis. And now they're adding snockingly well, 607 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:49,720 Speaker 1: they're adding openly one of the ten best hitters in 608 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 1: baseball to their team. And again, as they've gone off 609 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:55,359 Speaker 1: season after offseason struggling to get anyone to take their money. 610 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 1: This is huge because now you're like, all right, we 611 00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: just we know we're paying the money. He doesn't really 612 00:24:58,760 --> 00:24:59,920 Speaker 1: have a chance to say no, I was a best 613 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 1: Raphael Devers can't say no. They're just like, hey, guess 614 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:03,879 Speaker 1: what you're on our team now. I guess you get 615 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 1: to play in the Bay Area. They haven't had a 616 00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:10,960 Speaker 1: thirty home run hitter since Barry Bonds, crazy stat in sports. 617 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:11,960 Speaker 1: That's insane. 618 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 2: I also think they haven't had the same starting left 619 00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 2: fielder on opening day since Barry Bonds. The instability, while 620 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:22,040 Speaker 2: also success of that franchise since the Bonds days is 621 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 2: one of the most fascinating things in baseball right now. 622 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,240 Speaker 1: And they have a real, really funny confluence with this 623 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 1: roster in the team right now, with players that were 624 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 1: super analytical darlings, darlings brought in by far Hans Aiety, 625 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:35,440 Speaker 1: the former president Baseball Operations, and now Buster Posey just 626 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,359 Speaker 1: run this thing like an old boy like like the 627 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:39,600 Speaker 1: boys club, Boys club Baseball is supposed to be. But 628 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 1: it's gonna be funny. How good the top of the lineup. 629 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 1: This top of the lineup is when everyone's fully healthy. 630 00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 1: Matt Chappins back in rothfield, Devers is swinging. 631 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,239 Speaker 2: It's also really funny too, because Rafael Devers is just 632 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 2: in the same situation which he's not gonna play third base. 633 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,439 Speaker 2: I mean, he might play it now because Chapman's hurt 634 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 2: and he's out for I think like a month, but 635 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 2: he's either then just go back to DH or they're 636 00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:58,679 Speaker 2: gonna be like, you're gonna play first because we have 637 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:00,880 Speaker 2: Tom Smith there every single time right now. 638 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,200 Speaker 1: Shout out Tom Smith mess legend. But yeah, that's I 639 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:04,879 Speaker 1: also wonder what a slap in the face to be 640 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:06,680 Speaker 1: for the Red Sox if for Deevor's like, yeah, sure, 641 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 1: I'll try first space a little bit. Oh, I think 642 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 1: there's a very good chance he does, as kind of 643 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 1: like a hey, fuck you. 644 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 2: They did dick him around a little bit. They super 645 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 2: disrespect Rafael Devers' offseason, not in signing Bregman, not in 646 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 2: telling him that, like, can you play for a space, 647 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,240 Speaker 2: but the way that it was handled and the smear 648 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:23,679 Speaker 2: campaign that felt like that was going out, especially when 649 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:27,680 Speaker 2: he was misquoted multiple times, that felt yeah, it did. 650 00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 1: It was a strange situation when you have a player 651 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 1: who's been the the facto face of your franchise because 652 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:36,120 Speaker 1: you've let all your other stories go tremendous. Always does 653 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 1: his job, always plays really well, highest paid player on 654 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 1: your team, the longest tenured player on your team, I 655 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:43,159 Speaker 1: believe as well. And then to allow this kind of 656 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,520 Speaker 1: thing to happen when the communication just seemed rocky, and 657 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 1: this seemed like a bit of a I don't know 658 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 1: if we're really into too much, but seeing power struggle 659 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 1: ish with him and Breslo because Craig Bressel did not 660 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,160 Speaker 1: sign a long term contract for Rockilde Nevers Heim Bloom, 661 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 1: did Heim Bloma anymore? Craig and charged then when those 662 00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 1: situations happen sometimes he's exactly the kind of don't want 663 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 1: to be saddled with these contracts that they are not 664 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:03,680 Speaker 1: the ones that signed. And when you look at the 665 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 1: Devers contract at the end of the day, it's like 666 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 1: he's he's a tremendous hither, but he has had He's 667 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 1: shown more chinks in the armor as a hitter than 668 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 1: someone here is signing a huge contract that's Hither only 669 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 1: probably should. 670 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 2: But also like not really though not really, Like he 671 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:21,440 Speaker 2: had the O for eighteen with fifteen strakeouts to thirt 672 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 2: the year. What's his ops right now? Nine to sixty 673 00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 2: or something in baseball. Yeah, so it's like happened you 674 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:29,399 Speaker 2: say that the biggest problem with him is that he 675 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,119 Speaker 2: is a d h You cannot play him in the field. 676 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,360 Speaker 1: He is horrible, has always been horrible. 677 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:35,960 Speaker 2: But I also think that's part of the reason why 678 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,239 Speaker 2: he was like, dude, let me play third, or like, 679 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 2: don't put me at first. Have you seen how bad 680 00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 2: I am at the position I've played my entire life. 681 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:45,159 Speaker 2: You think I'm gonna be good at first? There is 682 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,160 Speaker 2: just there is some slight contact great concerns with Devers. 683 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 2: He does swing and miss more than most other lead 684 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:51,639 Speaker 2: hitters in the game, but that's something that when you're 685 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:52,479 Speaker 2: twenty eight doesn't matter. 686 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:54,359 Speaker 1: When you're thirty three, it might matter. When you're thirty 687 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:57,439 Speaker 1: three making thirty million dollars, that could matter a little bit. 688 00:27:57,480 --> 00:28:00,880 Speaker 1: But it's still like no, no, Yeah. For the Giants, 689 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:02,119 Speaker 1: this is one of the greatest. This is one of 690 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 1: the best trades you can make as an organization. For 691 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,399 Speaker 1: the Red Sox, you're leaving your fan base being like 692 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 1: pure what the fuck, Like, how can we trade Mookie bets? 693 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:10,680 Speaker 1: You trade Chris Sale for peanuts? Who wins to cy 694 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:12,640 Speaker 1: Young Award? And now you just trade Rae Faeld Devers. 695 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:14,159 Speaker 1: And now if you look at the Red Sox lineup 696 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 1: right now in roster resource, you know who they're projected DHS, 697 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:22,200 Speaker 1: Rome Gonzalez, David Hamilton, which is just I think that's 698 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 1: a roster resources, a roster research calibration issue. I think 699 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 1: gotta get into there for the night. But it's crazy 700 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:29,440 Speaker 1: and the most frustrating part. If I was a Red 701 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,880 Speaker 1: Sox fan, we'll be looking at my team salary right 702 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 1: now and being like, oh, maybe we're gonna really go 703 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 1: all in and push this thing. But you see the 704 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 1: fact that at the moment they're five hundred thousand dollars 705 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 1: shy of the luxury tax threshold, and you got to 706 00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 1: be like, wow, are they gonna try and get through 707 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:44,240 Speaker 1: the whole season not pay a luxury tax penalty and 708 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 1: then maybe maybe try to spend money this offseason after 709 00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 1: getting under the threshold last season to reset their penalty. 710 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 1: Now two years in row, trying to go under that threshold. 711 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 1: It's just what a what a pull in pull out 712 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 1: by the Red Sox doing the bregnant crochet and then 713 00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: dump Endeavors. 714 00:28:57,680 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 2: What the Red Sox fans don't realize is that Liverpool 715 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 2: signed Florian Verts and if everyone fee like a couple 716 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 2: one hundred plus million pounds v transfer fee I. 717 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 1: Think one hundred and thirty five million pounds. 718 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, which I think that also kind of might have 719 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:15,120 Speaker 2: a little bit of play of like if Devers was 720 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 2: be if the relationship with Devers was bad. Apparently one 721 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 2: of the big issues was that John Henry made some 722 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,480 Speaker 2: comments to Devers or somebody that Devers just completely ignored 723 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 2: him and like treated him like he wasn't the owner 724 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 2: of the team that's paying him all this money. That 725 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:31,840 Speaker 2: apparently really pissed everybody off, and they're like, we got 726 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 2: to get rid of this guy, which also like, again, 727 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 2: he's your star player. I don't know, it doesn't It 728 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 2: doesn't make any sense to me. Still at the end 729 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 2: of the day, it never will. And the only thing 730 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 2: that I will say about this affecting me the Mets. 731 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 2: Fuck the Giants are another team we now have to 732 00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 2: pay with for playoff spots. 733 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 1: That part really sucks. Yeah, we have to play the 734 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 1: Giants six times in ten days coming out of the 735 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 1: All Star break after a week, so it's great that 736 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:55,760 Speaker 1: we haven't played them yet. Then we get to play 737 00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:58,480 Speaker 1: them with Rafael Devers on the roster because that does suck. 738 00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 1: And also for Pool is on their way to I 739 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 1: think signing another another player Eazac. I'm not not too 740 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 1: hips at the transfer window Alexander Eazac. Apparently they're moving 741 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 1: in on him too, so that I don't know. I'm 742 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 1: not I'm not a not conspiracy theory guy, but it 743 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 1: might be connecting a few dots there. So it's a 744 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:15,120 Speaker 1: I'm happy to not have to be a Red Sox 745 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 1: fan right now. 746 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 4: Yeah. 747 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 1: No, Uh. 748 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 2: If there's any Red Sox fans listening to this, you 749 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 2: guys go into will you go to a game the 750 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 2: rest of the year? Are you boycotting until they do something? 751 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 2: What's the deal? 752 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 1: Because I know as a Mets fan this hadn't happened 753 00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 1: to us. 754 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 2: Again, the Red Sox might have traded away three Hall 755 00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 2: of Fame players, three Hall of famers in the last 756 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 2: five years, and the players they got back Chris Sale, Devers, 757 00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 2: Mooie Bets. 758 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 1: And the players that they got back were Connor. 759 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 2: Wong, Jeter Downs, Alex Rodugo, Von Grissom, Kyle Harrison, Jordan Hicks, 760 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:48,240 Speaker 2: James Tips I'm not and James Bayo Sure, James Jose Beayo. 761 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 2: Jose BeO is the guy's name that's crazy. For three 762 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:54,080 Speaker 2: Hall of Fame possible players, I think two of them 763 00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 2: have a pretty good shot. 764 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 1: Dever is probably the least. Yeah, I was gonna say, 765 00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: I think you're doing a little bit of the works 766 00:30:58,000 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 1: to make devs a future. 767 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:01,680 Speaker 2: So up, he's gonna have like four hundred and fifty 768 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 2: five hundred home runs. Yeah, it's true, Getty keeps up. 769 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 1: Also, he's going to a much harder place head home runs, 770 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 1: much high place to hit. In general, it's and he's 771 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 1: also it's hard to get hard to make the Hall 772 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 1: Fame as an all time DH unless you're David Artiz or 773 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 1: doctor Martinez or at Comartinez. It's a I don't know. 774 00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:17,200 Speaker 1: That was just that was one of the most shocking 775 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball transactions I've ever seen in my life. 776 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,160 Speaker 1: Happy to be hanging out with my dad and uncle 777 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 1: at Father's Day dinner and I just break out the 778 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 1: laptop and start going through the Red Sox, the Red 779 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:27,560 Speaker 1: Sox contracts, and who these prospects are. I was a 780 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: fun That was a fun afternoon to happen. We just 781 00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 1: had we had to talk about that because you can't 782 00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:32,880 Speaker 1: talk about it. You can't make baseball content not talking 783 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 1: about the rock field devonstraded. No, all right, let's go 784 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 1: ahead and do that Braves series preview year. First time 785 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 1: we're playing the Atlanta Braves this year. That's how fucking stupid, insane. 786 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 2: June seventeenth will be the first time that we played 787 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 2: the Atlanta Braves in the year twenty twenty five. 788 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:47,840 Speaker 1: What are the pitching matchups? How are we looking? 789 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,920 Speaker 2: I know that they just came off of the weirdest 790 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 2: game I've ever seen where Grant Holmes struck out fifteen 791 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:56,440 Speaker 2: Colorado Rockies and the Braves lost by nine. I don't 792 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:57,240 Speaker 2: know how that happens. 793 00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, they gave up ten runs of the Rockies. We 794 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 1: just saw the Rockies. Guys can take that whatever you will, 795 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:04,920 Speaker 1: but huge series.

When I saw the seven to 817 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 1: fifteenth Star on Thursday, I was like, yep, shiting me. 818 00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 1: How do we keep getting these late night enders. I'm 819 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 1: gonna be in Vegas. 820 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 2: It's even a late night for Vegas podcast, which is annoying. 821 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:16,520 Speaker 2: So Bracelder's been pitching kind of well though, hasn't he. 822 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 1: He hasn't pitched kind of well, but then he didn't 823 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,960 Speaker 1: pitch like tremendously against the Rockies. See, I mean, I'm 824 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 1: not gonna say anying about Breyceller. I's not gonna break him. 825 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:25,000 Speaker 1: Don don't want to say anything about Bryce Elder going 826 00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,720 Speaker 1: inst the series. I just want us to, uh, he 827 00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:28,880 Speaker 1: think got out of the fourth inning in a game 828 00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:30,680 Speaker 1: against the Rockies. I'm gonna say after he struck the 829 00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:33,640 Speaker 1: factual statements, I'm saying two factual statements. His last two 830 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 1: stars struck out twelve naightnings against the Giants, didn't get 831 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:38,520 Speaker 1: out of the fourth nding against the Rockies. I'm leaving 832 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:40,520 Speaker 1: it there. There's no more analysis from that. But I 833 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 1: was talking about the rest of this Brace team because 834 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 1: I think there is a good bit to talk about. 835 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:47,920 Speaker 1: Let's do positives. Let's do positive on the Braves. I'll 836 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,200 Speaker 1: start first. Guy started with the first positive. Yes, positive. 837 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:54,720 Speaker 2: Junior, while he's not running, is on an absolute tear. 838 00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:57,160 Speaker 2: The dude's locked in at the plate. He's like, remember 839 00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:58,880 Speaker 2: how I was one of the best players in baseball? 840 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 2: Still am doesn't matter if I've thorn both my acls. 841 00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:04,600 Speaker 1: He's ridiculous. I got two more positives on the Brass 842 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 1: keep going. I thought we were gonna go back and forth. 843 00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:09,760 Speaker 1: Chris Sale, after a few kind of rough starts this season, 844 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:11,440 Speaker 1: didn't look like he might have been losing a little bit. 845 00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:13,440 Speaker 1: Has been ridiculous since the beginning of May. One of 846 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:16,160 Speaker 1: the best pitchers in baseball again. Euray's under Brown two 847 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 1: since beginning of May, striking tons of guys out, not 848 00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:22,279 Speaker 1: walking anybody. Major shift in his armslot this season, where 849 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:25,400 Speaker 1: he's now gone from mostly a side armor to a 850 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 1: pure ass side armor eight degree arm angle, which is 851 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 1: one of the lowest of any starting pitcher in baseball. 852 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:32,640 Speaker 1: He's like full March Simpson. It like Greg Kirker, that 853 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 1: elbow and then going out there, it's just still sliders 854 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:37,000 Speaker 1: and fastballs. He's getting that thing back up to ninety 855 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:39,680 Speaker 1: six ninety seven miles an now the guy is still 856 00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:41,359 Speaker 1: at thirty six years old, clearly one of the best 857 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:45,480 Speaker 1: pitchers in baseball. Here's my positive. The catching tandem is mashing. 858 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:49,799 Speaker 2: Specifically Drake Baldwin, good baseball player, he's gonna play. He's 859 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 2: the left handed bat for the Braves at the catching platoon. 860 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,719 Speaker 2: Sean Murphy's also hitting the ball well, hitting it hard. Again, 861 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:57,800 Speaker 2: those two can legitimately hit, which is annoying because pretty 862 00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:00,319 Speaker 2: much every single team to catch positions like hey, kind 863 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,760 Speaker 2: of a free out right now, but not for the Braves. 864 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:06,359 Speaker 1: Baldon has also been so good, so good. I say 865 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:08,440 Speaker 1: that honestly. He's been moved up to like second the 866 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 1: order a couple days, hitting between Acunia and Austin Riley. 867 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: Another positive about the Braves Spencer Swellenbach turning into a 868 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:16,600 Speaker 1: full blown superstar. I think we're gonna go through the 869 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:18,920 Speaker 1: next three, four, five, six major league baseball seasons and 870 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 1: be like this guy, Schwellenback's a problem still just twenty 871 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:23,120 Speaker 1: five years old working in a second major league season. 872 00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:25,279 Speaker 1: I always I love dropping the stat with you guys. 873 00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:26,920 Speaker 1: I think it was seventeen total starts. I spent a 874 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:29,160 Speaker 1: Swellenback May between high school and the major leagues. Really 875 00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:31,640 Speaker 1: kind of obscene how quickly that guy went through everything 876 00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:34,400 Speaker 1: from being a two way player, shortstop closer at Nebraska, 877 00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:37,759 Speaker 1: freak of nature, true six pitch mix, ninety seven mile 878 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 1: an hour fastball, eighty seven mile an hour slider, splither, color, curveball, 879 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:45,239 Speaker 1: sinker he is. He's a such a good pitcher. He 880 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 1: has so many ways to get you out confident, tons 881 00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:49,359 Speaker 1: of weapons to get hitters from both sides of the plate. 882 00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 1: One of my favorite pitchers to watch in the entire league. 883 00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:56,560 Speaker 1: Openly and honestly positive. Matt Olson and Austin Riley are 884 00:35:56,600 --> 00:36:01,960 Speaker 1: hitting again. Yeah, that's sure good positives. See now you 885 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:03,279 Speaker 1: put me in the spot because that might be running 886 00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 1: out of positive about the Atlanta Braves here. I mean 887 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:08,560 Speaker 1: that was kind of rude. The bad guys hitting. Yeah, 888 00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:12,320 Speaker 1: the the Marcelo Zuna I I am from the Braves, 889 00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 1: the man who will allegedly you know, got his domestic 890 00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:17,600 Speaker 1: violence and also got caught drunk driving. He's also hitting 891 00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:20,239 Speaker 1: well in the middle of that braz lineup. Uh do 892 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:24,200 Speaker 1: you Atlanta Braves posit about the Braces? They signed jose 893 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:25,920 Speaker 1: As Okar That is that is. 894 00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:30,040 Speaker 2: A positive former math for met positive about the Atlanta Braves. 895 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 2: I don't think Jesse Shava is currently on the major 896 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 2: league roster. 897 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:35,680 Speaker 1: That huge positive about the Atlanta Braves. Another positive pieris 898 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:38,680 Speaker 1: Johnson has pitched decently well and Dylan Lee. 899 00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:42,960 Speaker 2: Well been that bad They're billpen has been okay, it's 900 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:46,080 Speaker 2: been rising glaciers. If there's been doin, if there's been 901 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:47,560 Speaker 2: a problem, no, no. 902 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:51,279 Speaker 1: Don't matter, doesn't know. We're only doing positively positive, only 903 00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:54,720 Speaker 1: positive about the Atlanta Braves. They got Jose Suarez from 904 00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 1: what is he? 905 00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:58,439 Speaker 2: The Angels and he made three appearances before being hurt 906 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:00,479 Speaker 2: and had a two four yr Yeah. 907 00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 1: Also, here's a big one positive about the Atlanta Braves. 908 00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:07,040 Speaker 1: They passed Washington Nationals and Sandings. That's true. Okay, there 909 00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 1: you go. So I think that wraps up our poses 910 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 1: on the Atlanta Braves, right, I think that wraps up 911 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:14,399 Speaker 1: the series preview about the Atlanta Braves. Yeah, Braves are 912 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:17,480 Speaker 1: the Braves. Are the Atlanta Braves. We have seven games 913 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:19,919 Speaker 1: against them in ten days. The Mets are not playing 914 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,919 Speaker 1: very good baseball. It would be really really good for 915 00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,560 Speaker 1: the Mets team, the Mets future, the Mets season. My psyche, 916 00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 1: Mark Psyche, to go down to Atlanta and, you know, 917 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:33,120 Speaker 1: play good baseball. I'd love to enjoy my trip to Vegas. 918 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 1: I'd love to not have to be like, really really 919 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:38,479 Speaker 1: frustrated watching the Mets play the Atlanta Braves. Would be cool. 920 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 1: If the Mets played good baseball, that'd be really cool. 921 00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:43,960 Speaker 1: That one of that would be very cool this week. 922 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,040 Speaker 1: I would be I would be happy I'd be content 923 00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:48,560 Speaker 1: if the Mets play good baseball against the Atlanta Braves. 924 00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:50,839 Speaker 1: Some might even say it'd be chill. Be chill, would 925 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:52,280 Speaker 1: be so chill if the Mets could beat the Braves. 926 00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:55,279 Speaker 1: But I think that's good because not positive about the 927 00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:56,719 Speaker 1: Alanta Braves. That's all we got to say about them. 928 00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:59,279 Speaker 1: So we got got Franki Pepper's end this episode out. 929 00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:01,439 Speaker 1: Let's go give me a little Frankie Pepper's action. 930 00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:04,879 Speaker 3: Gentlemen, this is Frankie Peppers.

I'm getting a little 933 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:16,640 Speaker 7: concerned about the pitching. But we all knew that eventually 934 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:20,680 Speaker 7: did be some regression. We all knew this was gonna happen. 935 00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:23,120 Speaker 7: And look, if we look back at this in the 936 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:26,400 Speaker 7: middle of October, hopefully early November, and we go that 937 00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:29,719 Speaker 7: raise series was the worst series of the year, then 938 00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 7: we're doing okay. 939 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:33,400 Speaker 3: I hope you boys are treating yourself so well.
