1
00:00:01,280 --> 00:00:02,400
Speaker 1: Charge about.

2
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:08,520
Speaker 2: Aerocrats. Connor Griffin to the show, he learned everything in

3
00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:10,559
Speaker 2: one week in Triple A. This is awesome. First of

4
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:13,040
Speaker 2: all for Tigers fans. He's nineteen years old. He's going

5
00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:15,400
Speaker 2: to make his debut in the home opener. How convenient

6
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:19,360
Speaker 2: against the Orioles. And according to Jason Mackie, who covers

7
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:21,920
Speaker 2: the team, he said the move was made for baseball

8
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:24,800
Speaker 2: reasons and because he's their best option. Joe Sherman tweeted

9
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:27,040
Speaker 2: about this and essentially said the same thing, where they

10
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 2: wanted to see if he would win the job in spring,

11
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 2: then he faded a little bit late. So Ken also

12
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:36,839
Speaker 2: commented on how he heard from team reps. I'm paraphrasing,

13
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:38,479
Speaker 2: but that you know, they wanted him to get a

14
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:40,919
Speaker 2: little confidence boost and he did hit the crap out

15
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 2: of the ball in Triple A for a week. Here

16
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:46,279
Speaker 2: he comes. So let's cover the good stuff first. How

17
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:48,280
Speaker 2: much does this impact the Pirates? They were not getting

18
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:53,159
Speaker 2: much shortstop production from primarily gied Triolo, and their position

19
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 2: as a whole right now again in a week was

20
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:56,960
Speaker 2: like two hundred. I know we're going to play the

21
00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 2: small sample size game, but shouldn't this kid just be

22
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 2: here from the jump, helping this team try to make

23
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 2: the playoffs for the first time in a decade.

24
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:07,120
Speaker 1: I think it matters what your nine best players look like.

25
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:11,480
Speaker 1: I think Jared Triolo at third base is gold. I

26
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:14,039
Speaker 1: think him its third and second base. He has a

27
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 1: utility gold glove for that. So to me, throwing him

28
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 1: at shortstop might be undervaluing what you're getting out of shortstop.

29
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,320
Speaker 1: Connor Griffin. He could come up to the big leagues

30
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 1: and struggle. We're not even talking about his hitting. We're

31
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 1: talking about what he adds to this team, what he

32
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,759
Speaker 1: adds to the future of this team. Maybe his first

33
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,960
Speaker 1: fifty at bats don't go well, but now the rest

34
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 1: of the team is starting to get the rhythm of

35
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 1: what it's like to have him in the lineup, the

36
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 1: fanfare out there around him. To me, I don't think

37
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 1: it's going to be a struggle. I think he's going

38
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 1: to acclimate very well to the big leagues. And I

39
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: think this was a decision that they made his five games.

40
00:01:55,480 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 1: His five games in TRIPLEA did not make them say cow,

41
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 1: he really did this, Like, hey, he killed it down there,

42
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 1: But what happens if he had hit one hundred? But

43
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 1: they had said, you know, he's not ready yet. No,

44
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 1: it's a first day, it's the first home it's a

45
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 1: home opener. They're ready to sell some tickets and get

46
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:15,920
Speaker 1: some fans excited in the seats.

47
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,800
Speaker 2: I think there was consensus on this show that we

48
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 2: wanted him up in the show AJ at the start

49
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,519
Speaker 2: of the season, and I feel like there was a

50
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,799
Speaker 2: lot of pushback from people like, no, no, no, he's

51
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 2: not ready. Are those same people saying that right now?

52
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 3: Or what changed in a week? What changed in a week?

53
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 3: One week?

54
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 2: We always talk about small sample size in our sport.

55
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,359
Speaker 2: One week, what is it five games in Triple A

56
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 2: made the difference? Or should he have been with the

57
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 2: team from the jump? Does this team miss the playoffs

58
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 2: by a game or two? And go, oh, I wonder

59
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 2: if we had Connor Griffin in a couple of damns

60
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 2: in the first week. Maybe I'm overplaying it, But my

61
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 2: point AJ is, here's what's here's what's really gonna happen. AJ.

62
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:00,919
Speaker 2: Friday home opener gonna be awesome. And and then on

63
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 2: Friday night or Saturday, they will announce the extension. You

64
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 2: can't announce it and have it official before that. Since

65
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 2: there's a PPI. That's the extra pick you get if

66
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 2: the player wins rookie the year, or if the player

67
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 2: wins MVP within the first three years or what is

68
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:19,079
Speaker 2: it top three MVP? Yes, three or top three yeah,

69
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 2: so three years that would enable him to give the

70
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,840
Speaker 2: Pirates an extra pick. They messed that up with Paul Skens.

71
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,360
Speaker 2: They called him up too late. So to me, this

72
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 2: is awesome. Should have happened a week ago. The timing

73
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 2: is all very convenient for keeping a player down until

74
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 2: he agrees to a contract extension.

75
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 3: I'm not going to say I disagree with you, Scott,

76
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 3: but I will say this. They will not announce it

77
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 3: a day or two after. They'll give it a little

78
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 3: more time. They'll give it four or five days because

79
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 3: they don't want to make it that obvious that he's

80
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 3: getting called up because they're close to an extension, or

81
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 3: he's going to agree to EXTENSI because if they do

82
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 3: it the day over the next day, people say, hm,

83
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 3: that's strange. If only shows like foul Territory said he

84
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 3: would assign the extension spring training, he'd already be up.

85
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 3: So I think that he's up and they can say

86
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 3: it is for baseball reasons. Listen, Triolo struggled. We said

87
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 3: he was going to struggle a shortstop. We all know

88
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 3: he can't play short stop every day. The Pirates have

89
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 3: figured that out so now, but they knew that in

90
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,479
Speaker 3: spring training. This was just to put Listen. I hate

91
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:19,159
Speaker 3: to say this because it just it stinks that we

92
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 3: even have to talk about this, But they did this

93
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 3: to make Connor Griffin see, hey, if you signed this extension,

94
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 3: you could be in the big leagues. And boom here

95
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:27,839
Speaker 3: he isn't on the home opener. You think he's not

96
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 3: going to sell a few more tickets on the home opener.

97
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 3: I don't know if they were sold out already, but

98
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 3: they're gonna be now, right, They're gonna be now. And

99
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:35,840
Speaker 3: if you would have if you would have came up

100
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 3: the first day of the season.

101
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 1: No, they wouldn't have sold out.

102
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,159
Speaker 3: Yes, they still would have sold out on their home opener.

103
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 3: So I don't know. I just hate that we have

104
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,600
Speaker 3: to have these conversations. Why can't the team just call

105
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 3: up their best players. And if their best player to

106
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 3: play shortstop is Connor Griffin, he's gonna struggle, guys. He's

107
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 3: nineteen years old. He's nineteen years old. Everyone has had struggles,

108
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,720
Speaker 3: right want Soto when he came up, he had some struggles.

109
00:04:57,720 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 3: Bryce Harper had some struggles, Mac Trout. They had some struggles.

110
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 3: But you learn at the big league level and then

111
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 3: you're better off in the long run for it. So

112
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:05,480
Speaker 3: I thought he should have been here from opening day.

113
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,720
Speaker 3: I'm glad they're finally making this decision after five whole games. Man,

114
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 3: he went down to Triple A and did well, So man,

115
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 3: now he's up, Like, come on, are you kidding? Those

116
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 3: five games didn't mean anything other than I don't even

117
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:18,280
Speaker 3: know why they did that. They should have just had

118
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:19,919
Speaker 3: him in the big leagues for opening day. They didn't,

119
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:21,360
Speaker 3: And but now here he is, and hopefully he has

120
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:21,919
Speaker 3: a great career.

121
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,719
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, and this is this is tough for

122
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 1: me because ever since this news came out, AJ was

123
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 1: the first one to text us about it, and so

124
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 1: I started thinking, I'm like, what if I ran the pirates?

125
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 1: What is the what is the issue of not doing

126
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,480
Speaker 1: it this way? Like if I call him up, if

127
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 1: I call him up one opening day, because they clearly

128
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 1: think he's ready. He didn't change anything in Triple A

129
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,720
Speaker 1: to say, wow, he really changed our mind in those

130
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 1: five games, so they knew he was ready. But everybody

131
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: would do this once a week on the show. AJ's

132
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 1: pining for somebody to pay for his meal. Oh and

133
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 1: I see you're gonna pay for my meal. The pirates

134
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,840
Speaker 1: are looking to get the most, extract the most value

135
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:09,840
Speaker 1: out of this player, and to me calling him up

136
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 1: on opening day, having him sign an extension that is,

137
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 1: you know, the value that he wanted on before opening day,

138
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 1: and then not getting a PPI pick, not getting you know,

139
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 1: he opens on the road. All the things that the

140
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: pirates are doing to me. The pirates show me by

141
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 1: doing this that they're like, eh, it's okay if we

142
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 1: miss the playoffs by one game, but financially they're like, yeah,

143
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 1: we're just we're just trying to extract the most value

144
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 1: out of this, out of this situation as possible.

162
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 2: can also show the Jimboden tweet and we went over

163
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 2: this yesterday when Buster only put out a tweet about

164
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 2: the two sides getting close. And I do believe that

165
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 2: the sides basically already have it done and that you

166
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 2: at this point have to wait. But Boden said, the

167
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 2: Connor Griffin earra begins tomorrow in the Burg front office

168
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 2: is quietly confident they'll be able to announce the long

169
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 2: term deal prior to the game expectations is it will

170
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 2: be an eight year deal in the range of Roman

171
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 2: Anthony and cold Emerson deals. I will say Roman Anthony

172
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 2: and cold Emerson deals or what thirty five ish million apart.

173
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 2: So for his sake, I'm hoping it's closer to the

174
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 2: Roman Anthony deal. It should be.

175
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 1: In my mind for sure, I want to know what

176
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 1: it was in spring training to what it is now.

177
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,720
Speaker 1: Every part of negotiation, everybody has leverage, and people are

178
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 1: trying to use their leverage. And I think the Pirates

179
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:45,319
Speaker 1: use their leverage to say you could get called, you

180
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 1: could make the opening day roster, and but you have

181
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,679
Speaker 1: to take X amount of dollars. He says no. Maybe

182
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,200
Speaker 1: maybe his agent found out that the cold Emerson thing

183
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 1: was possibly happening, and there's you know, there's conversations. It's

184
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,560
Speaker 1: not like all of a sudden, Oh, cold Emerson's getting

185
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 1: ninety million and the Pirates only offered me one hundred

186
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,440
Speaker 1: and one million. I don't know that number for sure,

187
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 1: but I'm just saying, like, I'm better than him. Industry

188
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 1: knows I'm better than him, so we're gonna go and

189
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 1: say no, no, Like there's everybody knows what the value

190
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,839
Speaker 1: of the player is. The team tries to keep it

191
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:22,679
Speaker 1: as low as possible, and the player tries to get

192
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:23,680
Speaker 1: it as high as possible.

193
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:28,199
Speaker 2: And when you sign a contract of any kind, you're

194
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 2: signing it based on future projection. Sure the past plays

195
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 2: into that, but the future projection for Connor Griffin, when

196
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 2: you're looking at how the industry weighs a player like

197
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:41,840
Speaker 2: this is the highest in baseball for a prospect, for

198
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 2: a prospect in the sport is the highest projection. If

199
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 2: that's how we're basing things in the sport, then he

200
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:51,680
Speaker 2: should be the highest paid pre debut player and he

201
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,320
Speaker 2: should probably get a comp that's really similar to any

202
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:58,959
Speaker 2: player that's what below one season, one year of service time.

203
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it depends on how far like because

204
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 1: those guys actually have some big league numbers to say,

205
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 1: you know.

206
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:11,680
Speaker 2: Sixty something games, it's less than sixty something games.

207
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 1: No, you can't tell unless the dude's making an All

208
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,680
Speaker 1: Star team. But you have you know, you're talking about

209
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 1: eighty two, eighty ninety games of somebody making an All

210
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 1: Star team in their rookie year. That would be the

211
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 1: only way I wouldn't compare it to that. But yeah,

212
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 1: one hundred percent.

213
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, so on the positive side. AJ, Wait, you're muted.

214
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 1: You're still muted. Hold on, but no, I'm.

215
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 3: Not muting now perfect okay, but by the way, let

216
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:41,600
Speaker 3: me just say this. You know who's winning out of this,

217
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 3: the Pirate fans because they're going to get to see

218
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,560
Speaker 3: this kid for a long time. Let's I'm happy for them.

219
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,079
Speaker 3: They got a win. Pirate fans are getting a win

220
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 3: right here, So be excited. And I'm happy for you guys.

221
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 3: And you know what holds. I'm happy for Bob Nutting

222
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 3: if this comes true and he signs this deal. Good

223
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 3: for you, Bob Nutting and the Pirates organization. We're getting

224
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 3: this done. And give Pirates fans hope and get in now.

225
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 3: You know, are they going to be able to keep schemes?

226
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:04,320
Speaker 1: I don't know.

227
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 3: But next should be Bubba Chandler. If you think Bubba

228
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 3: Chandler is going to be great, then you should make Bubba.

229
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 3: You should lock Bubba Chandler up next because you have Keller,

230
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 3: you have Reynolds, you have some of these other guys, Like,

231
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,120
Speaker 3: let's lock some of these guys up if you think

232
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,680
Speaker 3: they are a core to winning for this organization. Because

233
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 3: the Pirates fans. They need some wins and this hopefully

234
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 3: is just the start of the wins for Pirate fans.

235
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 2: And it's a key to building a consistent core that

236
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 2: you can grow with. Right is lats of guys in earlier,

237
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 2: the better you take on risk that if the player

238
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 2: doesn't pan out, he did make a lot of money,

239
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 2: but more likely than not these turn into bargains for

240
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,840
Speaker 2: the team based on market value of a player. I'm

241
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 2: with you, I want to make sure we have that

242
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 2: positive vibe for Pirates fans. They've gone through a lot

243
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 2: for the past decade, a lot, a lot of nothing

244
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,079
Speaker 2: for the most part, so this is a really exciting time.

245
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:56,000
Speaker 2: I also want to give a little bit of love

246
00:11:56,080 --> 00:12:00,080
Speaker 2: to Ben Charrington's group KRATS. Tanking is not what it

247
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,600
Speaker 2: used to be. We had a time period where if

248
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 2: you're the worst team, you get the top pick. The

249
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 2: Pirates were a little bit of part of that, but

250
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,679
Speaker 2: then through the last CBA it made it more difficult

251
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 2: with lotteries and a few tweaks to not make it

252
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 2: so obvious that you can tank and then get a

253
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 2: ton of great players from the top of the draft.

254
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:21,840
Speaker 2: The Pirates have been bad for a while they've had

255
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 2: many opportunities lately, they've been seizing them. So Ben Charrington's group,

256
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 2: whoever he's got under him specifically, I don't have the

257
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 2: names in front of me, but they know who they

258
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:34,319
Speaker 2: are drafting, developing. They've done a really nice job. We're

259
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 2: talking about a number of homegrown players schemes you might

260
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 2: want to put in a different category. He seemed obvious. Fine,

261
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 2: but Connor Griffin, Bubba Chandler, guys like that that we

262
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:49,079
Speaker 2: are giving credit to have been. I would say, huge

263
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,079
Speaker 2: success stories for this team, and that's how you need

264
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:52,720
Speaker 2: to create a winner in Pittsburgh.

265
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:56,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can't miss, you can't miss. You can't To me,

266
00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 1: I think where the Pirates have to do well is

267
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 1: where they say, okay, we do a pre draft deal

268
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: wherever their first pick is, and it's maybe lower than

269
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 1: market value for that first pick, so that then they

270
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 1: can maybe possibly hit on giving a guy overslot in

271
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 1: the other rounds. And that's where the Pirates can find value. Obviously,

272
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 1: if people want to say, yeah, they created Paul Skins,

273
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,640
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, I kind of I have

274
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 1: a tough time. I have a tough time getting on

275
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 1: board with that. But to me, I think it's where

276
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:35,959
Speaker 1: they find that extra value. How do they handle how

277
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,560
Speaker 1: do they handle Bubba Chandler when he first gets to

278
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:40,960
Speaker 1: the big leagues? Okay, they put him in the bullpen. Okay,

279
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:44,199
Speaker 1: that's kind of weird, like he's never thrown out of

280
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:46,079
Speaker 1: the bullpen, but you do that. How do you handle

281
00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:50,360
Speaker 1: this Connor Griffin's situation. I think while we would have

282
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,199
Speaker 1: liked to have seen him on Opening Day, you know what,

283
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,000
Speaker 1: they were trying to get the most value out of

284
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,359
Speaker 1: this situation, so they did what's best for the organization

285
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,840
Speaker 1: moving forward, even if it means he misses the first

286
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:03,040
Speaker 1: six games.

287
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,360
Speaker 2: Hey, while we're on the Pirates, Paul Skeans bounced back

288
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,320
Speaker 2: a little bit yesterday. I think he's going to be fine,

289
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 2: AJ and he kind of joked with a little smile

290
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 2: about how you know, he gave the team a little

291
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 2: bit more volume this time around than last time, which

292
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 2: I like, we get a little more personality out of

293
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 2: schemes as he gets more comfortable in the bigs.

294
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 3: I didn't mute myself. I didn't mute myself that time.

295
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 3: I just want to say that was not me, so

296
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 3: you can't yell maybe I'm.

297
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 2: Going to be like the around the horn guy where

298
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 2: I get to under the bus on AJ.

299
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 3: That wasn't me, that muted myself. I'm just saying he's up.

300
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 3: Grab Yeah, you have incoming, because I mean she was

301
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 3: yelling at me because you know, anyways, we don't have

302
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 3: time for that because my lock wasn't in and whatever. Anyways, Uh,

303
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 3: were we really worried about Paul Skeens. I wasn't. I

304
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 3: wasn't worried about him. I knew he'd bet he had one.

305
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 3: He had a bad rough outing where the center fielder

306
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 3: goaded a couple of balls and he would have been

307
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 3: out of that inning with only a run or two. Instead,

308
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:00,840
Speaker 3: he gave him a five spot. The a ton of pitches.

309
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:02,920
Speaker 3: Give Mets credit, they took some long at bats off

310
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 3: of them. Hall Skeins are gonna be fine. We ain't

311
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 3: worried about pall Skins.

312
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's totally good. Seventy seven pitches, five innings. Though

313
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:13,040
Speaker 1: he didn't look like he wanted to come out of

314
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 1: that game. He was kind of like huh, which I'm

315
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 1: kind of confused because his last outing he didn't have

316
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 1: the volume because you know, they had to pull him.

317
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,840
Speaker 1: I think it was thirty six pitches in the first inning, Like,

318
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 1: you can't do that on your first outing. You got

319
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,560
Speaker 1: to get him out of there. But then seventy seven

320
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:31,160
Speaker 1: I thought they were going to send him back out

321
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,080
Speaker 1: for the sixth at least, which for him, you know,

322
00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 1: he can get up to eighty five eighty nine there

323
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:38,680
Speaker 1: and then then his outing would be done. But hey,

324
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 1: you know what, it's a good bounce back for him.

325
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,440
Speaker 2: You've seen many late comebacks already in the first week

326
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 2: of the season, big one in Philly with really back

327
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 2: to back games ending up nicely for them. You had

328
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,960
Speaker 2: the Entrew Painter debut and then Kratz Justin Crawford in

329
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 2: his fifth career game, gets the walkoff knock for them.

330
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean this is this is huge for a

331
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 1: team that everyone's saying, well, they're running it back and

332
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 1: they're old, and Painter extends their rotation, Crawford extends their lineup,

333
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:13,800
Speaker 1: and to be able to get a walk off in

334
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 1: your first home home stand, that's that's pretty legit knock

335
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 1: right through the hole.

336
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:22,760
Speaker 2: They also so they were down five to one in

337
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:25,160
Speaker 2: the seventh and then what was it, ninth inning, down

338
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:28,000
Speaker 2: to their last strike and Mundo Sosa kept it alive.

339
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, mund a little punch shot to left, scored two,

340
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 1: tied it up, held him in the tenth, and then

341
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:37,760
Speaker 1: finished it off in the I think it was a

342
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 1: bottom of the tenth, maybe.

343
00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:43,120
Speaker 2: The eleven it was, Yes, it was ten, bottom of

344
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 2: the tenth. Yeah, one X training is all it took.

345
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 2: But yeah, Justin Crawford has pretty good bloodlines. AJ. We

346
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 2: spoke to him. We had him in person, and I

347
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 2: don't think you were on that one, but we had

348
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 2: him in person when he was with the Blue Claws

349
00:16:56,760 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 2: down in Jersey Shore. He's a legit kid. You can

350
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 2: tell that he knows what he's doing there in terms of,

351
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 2: you know, being around big leaguers in a clubhouse, the

352
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 2: whole deal, like mature hit.

353
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 3: Yes, they're counting on him to be a big part

354
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:13,919
Speaker 3: of this season and this team so and for the

355
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 3: future of this organization. So good job Justin Crawford. By

356
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,320
Speaker 3: the way, I just looked up the monster on the

357
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:21,200
Speaker 3: Green Monster. It doesn't look that bad. I don't know

358
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,199
Speaker 3: what there's It's not like this is the first advertisement

359
00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:25,199
Speaker 3: that's ever been on the Green Monster. So sorry to

360
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:28,119
Speaker 3: change the subject, but didn't look that bad. It's a

361
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 3: Green Monster Energy Dream sign, you know, next to bet MGM,

362
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:33,880
Speaker 3: who we love.

363
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's probably not a big deal. And if I

364
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:41,439
Speaker 2: mean I love when there are you know, marketing in

365
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 2: a little organic marketing inclusion efforts in baseball that line

366
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,480
Speaker 2: up the name of something with the name of something else.

367
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 1: It's obvious.

368
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 3: Yeahous it almost made too much sense. So they were like, oh, wait,

369
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 3: this makes too much sense, Let's not do it.

370
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,520
Speaker 1: That's easy cash. That's easy cash for Fenway Sports Group

371
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 1: to spend on lit So that'll be that'll be great.

372
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:04,159
Speaker 3: The Penguins and.

373
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 1: Penguins and racing and racing.

374
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 3: Yes, although wins every race.

375
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:14,400
Speaker 2: True, this is for the astro sweeping Crush City territory

376
00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 2: because we're not going to talk about him today. But

377
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 2: they get the T shirt.

378
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what he said.

379
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:20,480
Speaker 2: That's what he said.

380
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:22,760
Speaker 1: That's what he said.

381
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:30,720
Speaker 2: That's what he said, catch the effing ball. That's what

382
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:34,960
Speaker 2: Matt Chapman said to Casey Schmidt in a tough game

383
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:37,720
Speaker 2: for the Giants a j what did you think of

384
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,240
Speaker 2: Chapman yelling at Schmidt when they met at the mound?

385
00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:43,440
Speaker 2: And a couple issues. So one was a bad throw

386
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,199
Speaker 2: by Chapman could some grab it, sure, and then you

387
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:49,239
Speaker 2: know one was a high throw. That was uh the

388
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:52,960
Speaker 2: first the high throw was Chapman's fault, right ish, And

389
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,040
Speaker 2: then no, you guys don't think it.

390
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 3: Was the other way.

391
00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:02,280
Speaker 1: Anytime it goes into the runner, that's that's yes, yeah,

392
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:03,000
Speaker 1: that one.

393
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 3: The high throw is the one he said, catch the

394
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:09,520
Speaker 3: effing ball right right. If you ain't never been on

395
00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:13,119
Speaker 3: a team, and you ain't never said something to someone

396
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:16,239
Speaker 3: or had someone say something to you, then you are

397
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:19,159
Speaker 3: doing things the right way. I'm sorry, because this happens

398
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 3: all the time. Listen, Baseball players and athletes in general

399
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:28,720
Speaker 3: are the most competitive, by the way, just honest, I'm

400
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 3: gonna move that shower spray, by the way, I don't know,

401
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:34,680
Speaker 3: I just saw that in the background. It was random.

402
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,360
Speaker 3: But if you've never been on a team, and you've

403
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:42,119
Speaker 3: never played in an ultra competitive situation and somebody hasn't

404
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:45,439
Speaker 3: said something to somebody on the team that hey, you

405
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 3: need to figure this out or you need to figure

406
00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:49,439
Speaker 3: that out, then you guys ain't doing it right. I'm sorry,

407
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 3: And this is not a big deal. We're making this

408
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 3: into a big deal because you could read his lips

409
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,639
Speaker 3: if Matt Chaman just would have gone catched the freaking

410
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:57,920
Speaker 3: ball with his glove over his mouth, we never would

411
00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 3: have known about this. So this is not a big

412
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:04,200
Speaker 3: and then to have people you know, chiming in on Twitter. Oh,

413
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:08,120
Speaker 3: Matt Schuman's a veteran god should dude. It happens all

414
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 3: the time. Please can we stop?

415
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 1: Stop?

416
00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 3: This happens all the time, from high school to college,

417
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 3: to the minor leagues to the major leagues to whatever

418
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 3: job you work in. If you work at a job

419
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,119
Speaker 3: and it's competitive and somebody hasn't said something like this

420
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:24,600
Speaker 3: but a different way to somebody meaning hey, type in

421
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 3: the right thing or don't forget your TPS reports or

422
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 3: whatever it is, then you're not doing things right and

423
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 3: you're not really competitive at your job. I'm sorry, I

424
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:33,199
Speaker 3: had no problem with this.

425
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 2: Wait, Kratz, I want to bring up what AJ is

426
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 2: referring to. Yes, I see what you're saying. Cover what

427
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,160
Speaker 2: you're saying with your Mitt eighteen starts. By the way,

428
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:44,200
Speaker 2: for Casey Schmid, he's not played a lot of first base.

429
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,960
Speaker 2: Bryce Eldridge is in the miners, hopefully up soon for

430
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:48,879
Speaker 2: the Giants, and Raffie Devers has been dealing with a

431
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:53,359
Speaker 2: hamstring issue, so he's not playing first base. But to me,

432
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 2: it heats up when you do get called out by

433
00:20:56,160 --> 00:21:01,399
Speaker 2: somebody in the big leagues. Dad Daniels Schneeman, who's a

434
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,960
Speaker 2: nice young player on Cleveland. His dad tweets a lot.

435
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,880
Speaker 2: So we have the tweet of him talking about Matt

436
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,560
Speaker 2: Chapman and what went down in the game. We can

437
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 2: show you that tweet here it is. He said, Casey

438
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 2: Schmidt is a young player trying to establish himself. Matt

439
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 2: Chapman is a veteran quote leader who acts like he's

440
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,719
Speaker 2: never made a mistake on the baseball field before. I

441
00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:26,479
Speaker 2: remember Schnee making throws, throwing errors in back to back

442
00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:29,280
Speaker 2: games in twenty twenty four in both Jose and Jimenez

443
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:33,159
Speaker 2: talking about Andres and Jose Ramirez patted him on the

444
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,640
Speaker 2: butt and picked him up at their meeting on the mound.

445
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 2: We are so grateful our son plays for this organization

446
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 2: and with this team culture. That's Papa Schneet, Daniel Schneeman's dad.

447
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 2: Wowkrats The drama continues.

448
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:50,280
Speaker 1: I think maybe a little bit of this would have

449
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 1: helped the glove over the face. Yes, but exactly what

450
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,680
Speaker 1: aj said because here's the other way that this goes down.

451
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 1: I guess there's three ways. Chapman could be like whatever, whatever,

452
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:05,359
Speaker 1: it's not a big deal, and that means he's not competitive,

453
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:09,640
Speaker 1: or to me, the softest way that this goes down

454
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 1: is he doesn't say a word to Casey Schmidt. He

455
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 1: talks behind his back, and when that starts to happen,

456
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 1: that is way more toxic than somebody calling somebody out.

457
00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,480
Speaker 1: Should he have done it where we saw as what

458
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 1: he said, No, should he have been called out? Absolutely,

459
00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:33,159
Speaker 1: And what Papa Shni is saying is that, hey, you

460
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 1: pat him on the back. Chapman's not just because he

461
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 1: called him out and it was like catch the ball

462
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,480
Speaker 1: doesn't mean that he doesn't support him, doesn't mean that

463
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 1: he's it is it is raising a level of expectation

464
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,679
Speaker 1: to where it needs to be for you to be

465
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 1: at the top of your game, and the hole like,

466
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:56,280
Speaker 1: well he is new at first base, I don't care

467
00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:58,399
Speaker 1: you're playing on the big league field, Like it's not

468
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,240
Speaker 1: nobody's gonna look at there and watch somebody drop a

469
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:04,919
Speaker 1: fly ball and go oh that's okay, Like he's not

470
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,920
Speaker 1: he's he's not really that good out there. Anyway, It's

471
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 1: totally fine. Nobody nobody does that. Nobody like it just

472
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:16,280
Speaker 1: doesn't it doesn't happen. Jose Butos out there, he was

473
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,399
Speaker 1: throwing a bunch of balls in the game, like he

474
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,480
Speaker 1: couldn't find the strike zone. He eventually came out because

475
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,040
Speaker 1: he was hurting. Like, no matter what's going on on

476
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 1: the baseball field, if you want to compete as a team,

477
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:32,320
Speaker 1: this type of stuff happens, and it happens for the

478
00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:36,560
Speaker 1: better of the team, for the better like moving forward.

479
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,280
Speaker 1: It's this isn't something that now Casey Schmid's all of

480
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,720
Speaker 1: a sudden gonna be clamming up. Casey Smid knows he

481
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 1: didn't catch both those balls, two balls that should have

482
00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:47,919
Speaker 1: been caught. He knows. Yes, he called him out, and

483
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,080
Speaker 1: then they talked about it after the game, like there's

484
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,480
Speaker 1: still teammates if he has to hold that against Chapman

485
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 1: and he's like, oh, that dude, he called me out.

486
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:57,679
Speaker 1: That is bool. I can't believe he would have done that.

487
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:00,680
Speaker 1: They would have. They didn't have a chat anyway.

488
00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:04,040
Speaker 3: And by the way, can I just say this, who

489
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:07,160
Speaker 3: cares what I mean? No offense? I mean to Papa,

490
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 3: she shnee whatever his name is, Like, dude, why why is?

491
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:14,199
Speaker 3: I don't know about you crats, But if my mom

492
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 3: or dad would have tweeted something like that, I would

493
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 3: have been like, mom, dad, you guys are banned on Twitter,

494
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 3: Like what are we talking? Like? You don't need to

495
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,440
Speaker 3: get involved in this. I'm sorry. It's not your team,

496
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:23,160
Speaker 3: it's not your kid. Don't get involved.

497
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:27,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's not Yeah that was that was overstepping. I

498
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:30,600
Speaker 1: completely agree with you. There are things cool.

499
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:34,439
Speaker 3: Your kid made a couple of errors in the big leagues. Cool, like,

500
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:36,720
Speaker 3: but that doesn't mean like you have the right to

501
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,440
Speaker 3: fire at another team. You're not on that other team. Dude,

502
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:43,639
Speaker 3: you don't know. Maybe he was joking. Maybe maybe Chapman

503
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,080
Speaker 3: and and Schmid have a relationship where they joke around

504
00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:47,639
Speaker 3: with each other and say catch the ball, man, Like

505
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:49,119
Speaker 3: if I threw a ball to Paul can Erico and

506
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 3: he missed it, I'd be like, dude, catch the freaking ball, bro,

507
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:55,680
Speaker 3: and we'd laugh about it, right, I mean, we wouldn't

508
00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:57,119
Speaker 3: be pissed. Maybe they have that kind of like this

509
00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:00,400
Speaker 3: guy doesn't know, Like, sorry, I can't tell people parent,

510
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 3: I can't tell people how to talk to other people,

511
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:04,399
Speaker 3: but to me. If I'm just saying if this was

512
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:06,679
Speaker 3: my parents, I would have been like, Mom, Dad, what

513
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:07,440
Speaker 3: are y'all doing?

514
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,879
Speaker 1: Totally you have to you have to make sure and

515
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 1: it's just not just a parent thing like one of the.

516
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,480
Speaker 3: One of the best nephew's friends all that.

517
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:22,400
Speaker 1: Yes, you give somebody tickets to a game and they

518
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 1: sit in the family section, You as a player, are

519
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,680
Speaker 1: responsible for the things that they say. People say, Ah,

520
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:32,120
Speaker 1: that might not be that might not be it. You're responsible.

521
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 1: You have to make sure they're in check or they

522
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 1: don't sit in the family section. So it's just the

523
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:39,560
Speaker 1: same if you're gonna put my name on, if you're

524
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:43,959
Speaker 1: gonna say, hey, I'm so and So's cousin, I'm Eric

525
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:49,920
Speaker 1: Kratz's you know brother, I'm I'm tweeting on it. No, No,

526
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:52,239
Speaker 1: like you got to keep you got to keep your

527
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:55,880
Speaker 1: family in check because it goes it goes down on you.

528
00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 2: I've got two thoughts here. Number one, I'm completely with

529
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:04,400
Speaker 2: you guys. I like this right. I didn't play the majors,

530
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 2: played high school basketball. But if someone's saying that to me,

531
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,639
Speaker 2: that gets me fired up. If you have someone doing

532
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,240
Speaker 2: this all the time, sure it can get a little old,

533
00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:15,320
Speaker 2: but a little kick sometimes great love it. That's Matt

534
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 2: Chapman style number two. And I didn't see this anywhere,

535
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,520
Speaker 2: but maybe I missed it. I know this part for

536
00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:23,240
Speaker 2: a fact. Matt Chapman has been diagnosed with Tourette syndrome

537
00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 2: since he's seven years old. I don't know the extent

538
00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,760
Speaker 2: of it, but I do know that in one article

539
00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:33,160
Speaker 2: I'm looking at quickly here it does include it involuntary vocalizations.

540
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:36,119
Speaker 2: He has ticks. He was made fun of and bullied

541
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 2: when he was younger, so I don't want to use

542
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:42,479
Speaker 2: that to blame. But also on top of that, you're

543
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:44,240
Speaker 2: going to have some people that are picking on someone

544
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:48,080
Speaker 2: who has been diagnosed with turets for the past thirtieth

545
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:48,880
Speaker 2: years of his life.

546
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 3: I can't. I can't never heard that, never heard that,

547
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,360
Speaker 3: although I did. My son played with the kid who

548
00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:59,640
Speaker 3: had turets. He had legit turets where he would say

549
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:01,760
Speaker 3: things he was a great kid, and he was a

550
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:03,879
Speaker 3: decent ballplayer, and he could have gone on play, but

551
00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:06,080
Speaker 3: he had he had turets. And he would say we'd

552
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:07,480
Speaker 3: be in the middle of a team meeting and he

553
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:09,360
Speaker 3: would he would get a tick and he would say

554
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:11,680
Speaker 3: things and you first time when I was helping coach,

555
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:13,639
Speaker 3: he did it, and I'm looking at the other coaches,

556
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:15,800
Speaker 3: I'm like, did he just say what I think he said?

557
00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:18,560
Speaker 3: And they're like you didn't know, did you? And I

558
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:20,920
Speaker 3: was like no, and they're like no, it's just it's

559
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:24,280
Speaker 3: just he can't help himself. And I mean, it's it's amazing.

560
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:26,919
Speaker 3: It's it's not amazing. That's not the right thing, but

561
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:29,919
Speaker 3: it's just a it's a strange thing that happens and

562
00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:33,280
Speaker 3: they can't control it. And I'm not saying that's what

563
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:35,440
Speaker 3: I'm with Matt Chapman, but I've been around a kid

564
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:38,760
Speaker 3: with turetts and it is you just learned to deal

565
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,520
Speaker 3: with it, and it's nothing they can do to control.

566
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:45,760
Speaker 2: It, exactly. Yeah. I mean, for anyone that has someone

567
00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:49,440
Speaker 2: around them, you should learn about the syndrome and you

568
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 2: know best ways to be able to interact with someone

569
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:55,159
Speaker 2: and also just understand them. So yeah, I've done some

570
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,640
Speaker 2: pretty good research on turettes over the years. I've known

571
00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:00,960
Speaker 2: some people diagnosed with it, So anyway, I just hadn't

572
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,880
Speaker 2: seen that anywhere in terms of this particular case. Again,

573
00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 2: not blaming anything on this, but he does have Thrette syndrome.

574
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:08,280
Speaker 2: That is a fact.

575
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:11,760
Speaker 3: But also their teammates, they're frying their friends, trust me exactly.

576
00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,679
Speaker 3: Everyone says, Oh, you're hunky dory with every teammate your

577
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,639
Speaker 3: whole year. No you're not. There are fights within teams

578
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:20,600
Speaker 3: that people never hear about, and there are arguments. You're

579
00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:23,760
Speaker 3: like brothers, you're together for nine months straight. There's gonna

580
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 3: be arguments. There's gonna be things that people say that

581
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:28,760
Speaker 3: they don't everyone agrees with. And then you get over

582
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 3: it and you hug and you kiss on the cheeks

583
00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:34,720
Speaker 3: and pat each other on the butt, and you go

584
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:36,680
Speaker 3: the next day and you move on. I mean, that's

585
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 3: just the way it is. It's a long season and

586
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:41,200
Speaker 3: things happen and it's not a big deal. Let's try

587
00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 3: to stop trying to make something out of everything. Because

588
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:48,640
Speaker 3: of social media.

589
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,160
Speaker 2: I think, of anything, it's kind of fun that it

590
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:50,080
Speaker 2: gets caught on camera and you get to see how

591
00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 2: big leaguers interact. People want access, but if you want access,

592
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:56,240
Speaker 2: you have to be able to just accept access and

593
00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 2: not have to have this strong opinion. So yeah, I mean,

594
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:01,600
Speaker 2: the real person have fault here is a player's dad,

595
00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:05,000
Speaker 2: chiming in and trying to call someone out. That's just

596
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:08,160
Speaker 2: not a good idea, and then that player could end

597
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:11,840
Speaker 2: up playing with that player long term. It's just it's stupid. Yeah,

598
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:15,960
Speaker 2: the family members generally need to zip it if you're.

599
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:18,480
Speaker 3: And by the way, what said Scott what Kratz said

600
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,040
Speaker 3: about the family section is I've had and I'm sure

601
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 3: Krats said, to have conversations. I've had to have conversations

602
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:27,080
Speaker 3: with family members and I'm like, hey, you need to

603
00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 3: shut stf you because they're you can't say what you're Oh,

604
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:35,760
Speaker 3: he's pitching terrible, and he's doing that like you're sitting

605
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 3: next to their mother or their wife or their kid,

606
00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:41,719
Speaker 3: Like just sit there and cheer for the team and

607
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,760
Speaker 3: don't say a word like don't And trust me, we

608
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:47,240
Speaker 3: all know. I'm sure Kratz's wife. My wife has said

609
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,960
Speaker 3: things where hey, so and so was sitting there saying

610
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:53,800
Speaker 3: this or that, like, hey, just sit there, cheer when

611
00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:55,920
Speaker 3: you're supposed to cheer. If you want to talk about

612
00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 3: some we'll talk about it when we're alone after the game,

613
00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 3: but not front of everyone else. Your mouth shut.

614
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:05,400
Speaker 2: We've probably all been there. It just gets magnified in baseball.

615
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,200
Speaker 2: I have family in like the Broadway world, and I've

616
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 2: been with family members where they're like watching a show

617
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:13,080
Speaker 2: that one of my sisters is in and they're like, oh,

618
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 2: this person's not as good as the replacement or whatever,

619
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,960
Speaker 2: and I'm like, they could be sitting right around us.

620
00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 3: I've had that conversation at high school games, big league games,

621
00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 3: volleyball games, everywhere, like, hey, you can't say that because

622
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,160
Speaker 3: the mom is sitting right in front of you, or

623
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 3: the brother is sitting next to you, or the cousin

624
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:35,240
Speaker 3: or whoever someone that knows somebody is sitting you're in

625
00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:36,920
Speaker 3: the family section. You just zip it.

626
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 1: We just had this situation. Our high school team just

627
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:45,080
Speaker 1: beat a team, you know, much much larger school hadn't

628
00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:49,560
Speaker 1: beaten them for whatever it was like seven years, I think.

629
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 1: And it was a great game. It was a night game.

630
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 1: It was community to night. And afterwards, like my dad

631
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,560
Speaker 1: comes up and he was like, oh man, what a

632
00:30:57,600 --> 00:30:59,760
Speaker 1: great game. He's like, well was the last time we

633
00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 1: beat them? Oh that was so awesome. I'm like surrounded

634
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:07,360
Speaker 1: by the other teams like parents and like players and

635
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,600
Speaker 1: all that stuff, and I was like, well, we'll go

636
00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:12,920
Speaker 1: have breakfast. Good to see you. Thanks for coming to

637
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:17,040
Speaker 1: the game. Like, but but they get they get routed up,

638
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:19,480
Speaker 1: and they get amped up and they're living it with you.

639
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 1: So it It normally comes from a innocent place for

640
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,920
Speaker 1: the most part. But you gotta just like Ajay said,

641
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:29,920
Speaker 1: this one right, zip just zip it.

660
00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:19,880
Speaker 2: we're going to show a tweet with a trend for

661
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:24,320
Speaker 2: the Mariners. The Yankees had themselves another nice series as

662
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 2: they swept the Giants, and they did really good work

663
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,880
Speaker 2: against the Mariners. Here, you've got a Yankees team that

664
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,960
Speaker 2: is thriving with Cam Schlitzler and their pitching staff. Of course,

665
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:36,040
Speaker 2: the hitting like Ben Rice is providing some pop for

666
00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:38,040
Speaker 2: a team that's five and one so far this year.

667
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:41,560
Speaker 2: The Mariners are three and four on the season. Can

668
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:44,040
Speaker 2: we throw that tweetback up there, just to show what's

669
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:46,440
Speaker 2: been wrong for the Mariners and whatever? I mean, they're

670
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:48,600
Speaker 2: a game off of five hundred. We're just getting started here.

671
00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:52,120
Speaker 2: If anything, I'm looking at this Kratz and saying good

672
00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 2: sign for Seattle because these numbers are not going to

673
00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:58,200
Speaker 2: last for long. They're two three four hitters. Game one

674
00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 2: over eleven, Game two over eleven, Game three to two

675
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 2: for eleven, Game four one for twelve, Game five one

676
00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 2: for thirteen, Game six to two for eleven, Game seven

677
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:08,080
Speaker 2: ozh for nine. We're talking about Cal Riley, he's got

678
00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 2: a four fifty ops, Julio Redriguez who has a two

679
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:13,160
Speaker 2: to seventy seven ops, and Josh Naylor has a one

680
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:16,239
Speaker 2: to seventy ops. Hey, I would buy stock in all

681
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 2: three of those players.

682
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:21,800
Speaker 1: Water levels out. You just gotta gave us some time,

683
00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 1: Charlie Manuel. Let you know, here's the thing that the Mariners.

684
00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:29,680
Speaker 1: The issue the Mariners have always had. They've had a

685
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:33,240
Speaker 1: great top of the order. They've had great defense in

686
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:37,960
Speaker 1: Cal Raley, JP Crawford and Julio Rodriguez up the middle,

687
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:42,480
Speaker 1: they're there, They're pitching has been ridiculous. Rotation to creating

688
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 1: bullpen guys. They've just never had any hitting outside of

689
00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 1: the top three, top four guys. So now that these

690
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,680
Speaker 1: guys are not hitting and they're three and three, three

691
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:56,479
Speaker 1: and four, three and four to start the season, this

692
00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 1: is good. This is how This is how good teams

693
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:03,040
Speaker 1: stay afloat when things aren't going well for your stars,

694
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 1: because stars can carry your team. I think Julio Rodriguez

695
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:10,399
Speaker 1: had like a seven seven war or six war last year.

696
00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:14,160
Speaker 1: I'm not sure what it was. Like Kyle Raley did

697
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,040
Speaker 1: should have been the MVP. Like those guys are gonna

698
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:19,799
Speaker 1: come around. Are they gonna have MVP seasons? I don't know.

699
00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 1: Julio Redrigez always starts slow. But when you can win

700
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:26,279
Speaker 1: games when these guys, when your team is normally not

701
00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:30,000
Speaker 1: very deep, in your lineup and you're still winning some games.

702
00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:33,400
Speaker 1: You're staying right at five hundred. That is a great sign.

703
00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:35,879
Speaker 1: So Marinis fans should almost be happy.

704
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:40,600
Speaker 2: History last night as we had our first game ending

705
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:44,880
Speaker 2: on an ABS challenge overturned AJ. Apparently Samuel Basala, the

706
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 2: young rookie catcher for the Orioles, wasn't going to do it,

707
00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:50,520
Speaker 2: but he was like Besia was like me, we have

708
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 2: two challenges left, just could end the game. It's close.

709
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:55,600
Speaker 2: I'm gonna use it. Smart.

710
00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 3: Why would you not?

711
00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:00,239
Speaker 2: This is why would you know the pitch gets overturned? Yeah,

712
00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:02,080
Speaker 2: having Carter thought had by the way.

713
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:05,600
Speaker 3: Nope, nope, s right, and by the way, think how

714
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:07,320
Speaker 3: much on that plate that ball is. If they actually

715
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:08,400
Speaker 3: do the three D strike.

716
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:14,319
Speaker 1: Zone, he's not gonna let that go.

717
00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:16,319
Speaker 3: I'm never gonna let that go because in the rule

718
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,759
Speaker 3: book the strike zone is three D. So let's not

719
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:22,239
Speaker 3: pretend like all of a sudden, it's oo linear. It's not.

720
00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:25,200
Speaker 3: It's three D. Like maybe the bars he to wear

721
00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:27,839
Speaker 3: three D glasses. Whoever does the ABS needs to wear

722
00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:30,279
Speaker 3: three D glasses and then they could be like time

723
00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,920
Speaker 3: out ABS challenge. Everyone put on your glasses. Like when

724
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:34,960
Speaker 3: you go to a three D movie and then all

725
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:37,200
Speaker 3: of a sudden, on the big screen, the players like,

726
00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:39,960
Speaker 3: hold up, hey, coach, give me the three D glasses.

727
00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:41,879
Speaker 3: Everyone puts on their three D glasses and they show

728
00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 3: it on the big screen in three D.

729
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:46,319
Speaker 2: It sounds like someone who lives close to Disney.

730
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,960
Speaker 1: Yes, you live in an ai world getting your tickets

731
00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:53,239
Speaker 1: in Boca Ratan, you know, taking the whole baseball team

732
00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 1: out to dinner about it. You can't. You can't have

733
00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:59,080
Speaker 1: a three D. You can't have a three D. This

734
00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:01,640
Speaker 1: wouldn't have affected it. It still would have been a strike.

735
00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:04,919
Speaker 1: These are the ones that I love it. I love

736
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:07,359
Speaker 1: I mean, are we going to have a playoff game

737
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:11,120
Speaker 1: ending on an ABS challenge? Maybe? But I'd rather see

738
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:16,080
Speaker 1: a playoff game not end because they challenge and then

739
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:19,359
Speaker 1: we get more drama. Like that's that's it for me,

740
00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:20,560
Speaker 1: Like I'm here for that.

741
00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:25,680
Speaker 2: Besio, also twenty one years old, hit a home run

742
00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,480
Speaker 2: his first of the season in that game, a win

743
00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,799
Speaker 2: for the Orioles par He's a special talent. They look

744
00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:33,160
Speaker 2: like they've got something good there.

745
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:35,399
Speaker 3: Is he gonna be the catcher? Though? Is he gonna

746
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:37,080
Speaker 3: be the catcher? The DH that's the problem.

747
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:40,320
Speaker 2: Catcher ish the catcher ish.

748
00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:41,840
Speaker 3: Ish because they have a first baseman, y'all, so we

749
00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:42,800
Speaker 3: can't go to first base.

750
00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:46,880
Speaker 2: No, I did catcher ish well, dh.

751
00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:49,399
Speaker 3: That was the thing I were worried about with him, though,

752
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:52,040
Speaker 3: is could he catch? I mean what I've seen, he's okay.

753
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 3: But if you mash. Yeah, yeah, listen, here's the thing.

754
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:58,279
Speaker 3: If you mash, guess what, they'll find a place for you,

755
00:36:58,360 --> 00:36:58,920
Speaker 3: he mashes.

756
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:03,920
Speaker 1: I would never I would never call prospect up to

757
00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:07,280
Speaker 1: not play his primary position. But that dude, his primary

758
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:11,480
Speaker 1: position right now is hitting. He can he can ding

759
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:12,160
Speaker 1: a baseball.

760
00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:15,879
Speaker 2: Hey, we're back. Can we do the Mets tweet here?

761
00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,920
Speaker 2: Because we'll probably only have time for one topic in

762
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:23,040
Speaker 2: hot corner room we come back. Uh, Lindor made a

763
00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:26,560
Speaker 2: couple of mistakes yesterday, guys. He forgot the outs in

764
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,880
Speaker 2: the first and then was picked off, although Mendy took

765
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:33,160
Speaker 2: the blame for the pickoff, saying that he was going

766
00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:37,759
Speaker 2: to run there, although he still looked pretty frozen to me. Yeah,

767
00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,879
Speaker 2: Mendy did postgame crats say like, oh no, I'm I'm

768
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:42,719
Speaker 2: taking the blame on that one. He was going to run.

769
00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 3: He was like like it wasn't even looking. He got

770
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:52,640
Speaker 3: picked off and did if you move, I mean, stuff happens.

771
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:55,400
Speaker 3: I'll say this stuff happens. It was a rough first inning.

772
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:57,720
Speaker 3: That was all pretty. It was all the first.

773
00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:01,120
Speaker 2: Inning though, now the other part was in an inning

774
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:03,279
Speaker 2: where the inning when Soda hit the homer and so

775
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,439
Speaker 2: different than the game. Yeah, because they lost by a run.

776
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:09,320
Speaker 3: It's such a small Sables, Anthony Tacoma, We love you.

779
00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:16,439
Speaker 2: The risks, the runners in scoring position, he was planting out,

780
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:17,920
Speaker 2: how much chasing they're doing.

781
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:21,879
Speaker 3: So in six games? It's six games? Six games? Are

782
00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:26,839
Speaker 3: we really worried about Francisco Lindoor? Oh no, stop, no,

783
00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 3: but you can't.

784
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:29,239
Speaker 2: I'm not worried about either.

785
00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:33,960
Speaker 3: Raise your hand if you've got how many outs are? Okay?

786

Speaker 3: You can't have those type you never got picked off?

789
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:41,880
Speaker 1: Picked off?

790
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:47,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, everyone's picked everyone's been picked off. Everyone's forgot the

791
00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:49,759
Speaker 3: outs there are. Let's let's just everybody take a deep

792
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:52,640
Speaker 3: breath here. Everyone again, social media is looking for something

795
00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:01,520
Speaker 1: need to have You need to be called out when

796
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:06,280
Speaker 1: guys make mistakes that are mental mistakes. In my opinion,

797
00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:08,920
Speaker 1: those are mental mistakes. I could care less that they're

798
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:12,600
Speaker 1: hitting one to eighty with runners in scoring position, or

799
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:15,880
Speaker 1: they're chasing a ton, I could care less. That's a

800
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:19,160
Speaker 1: small sample size. I need you to lock in on

801
00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:22,400
Speaker 1: a getaway day game, just the same as you're locking

802
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:26,319
Speaker 1: in for the ESPN Sunday Night game. That's all I'm saying.

803
00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:29,600
Speaker 1: You gotta lock in. That's okay to be called out for.

804

00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:06,640
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna wear another Pirates hat tomorrow. Me and

813
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:10,759
Speaker 1: Connor Griffin, both super prospects that got called up for

814
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:13,520
Speaker 1: the Pirates. I mean J. J. Cooper said it most

815
00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:19,440
Speaker 1: anticipated call up since Steven Strasburg, which I remember huge. Ironically,

816
00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:22,879
Speaker 1: he got called up against the Pirates who couldn't hit

817
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:25,920
Speaker 1: worth a lick. I was on. I wasn't on that

818
00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:30,719
Speaker 1: exact team. I got called up later, but yes, I.

819
00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:33,920
Speaker 3: Got a second start. I got Strassburg second start in Washington.

820
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:36,720
Speaker 3: I was there for the second start.

821
00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:39,839
Speaker 1: And then that's called him up because the Pirates were

822
00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:42,839
Speaker 1: brutes mcgoots and they wanted a soft landing for him,

823
00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:45,000
Speaker 1: and he proved it. And here we go.

824
00:40:46,239 --> 00:40:48,120
Speaker 2: Okay, let's run this last thing we have.

825
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:57,439
Speaker 3: On what you got man festival. Ain't no way, ain't

826
00:40:57,480 --> 00:41:00,120
Speaker 3: no way, first guest, ain't no way.

827
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:03,160
Speaker 2: That was Jeremy Pain. You're grabbing the mic from Chandler

828
00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:04,440
Speaker 2: Rome to be like, how does it feel to be

829
00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:06,799
Speaker 2: the second fastest player on the team. I thought that

830
00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:10,120
Speaker 2: was funny from the other day. It's good stuff.

831
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:13,480
Speaker 3: I always knew. I always knew what it was like

832
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:15,480
Speaker 3: to be the second fastest on every team.

833
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:19,439
Speaker 2: You wanted to be first, but you were okay with second, right,

834
00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 2: that's the real ye.

835
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:23,440
Speaker 3: Some of the teams I played on had really fast

836
00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:25,200
Speaker 3: guys and I was the second fastest, so I felt

837
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:26,080
Speaker 3: okay about myself.

838
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:30,440
Speaker 1: You were totally fine. Would not be in the fastest.

839
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:31,480
Speaker 3: Because if you're fast and they expect you to steal bases,

840
00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:31,719
Speaker 3: and I.

841
00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:34,960
Speaker 1: Didn't want to do that, I'd be exhausting because.

842
00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 3: My war would have gone through the roof then and

843
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:40,280
Speaker 3: then they would actually man, it would have been crazy. Yeah,

844
00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:42,440
Speaker 3: got paid so much? Have I just been had more

845
00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:43,200
Speaker 3: stolen bases?

846
00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:45,680
Speaker 1: You could have paid for somebody else's meal and not

847
00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:49,799
Speaker 1: just your son's. Nope baseball team and nope parking ticket.
