1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:01,960
Speaker 1: You should see my shower shoes. I still have them

2
00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:05,480
Speaker 1: them John's. The Johnes are slippery on the bottom. Yeah, Todd,

3
00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:07,960
Speaker 1: I still have them. Read the book one time. Okay,

4
00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:09,040
Speaker 1: read the book.

5
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:09,560
Speaker 2: One time.

6
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 3: That Betsy fam got a lot to cover today. Obviously

7
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:17,280
Speaker 3: this could be the last show for Godfather for a while.

8
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:20,520
Speaker 3: He did get a little phone call, and it's intriguing.

9
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:22,239
Speaker 3: I didn't think that you were going to do this

10
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:26,000
Speaker 3: at this point, but you might do a little tryout scenario.

11
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 3: Do they want you to play indie ball first?

12
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 4: No, well so they I'm not going to say the

13
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:34,200
Speaker 4: team yet. Okay. They basically called me and said, listen,

14
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:37,159
Speaker 4: you know we've seen your show whatever. We understand that

15
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:39,840
Speaker 4: you're doing your show, you work here and there. We're

16
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,880
Speaker 4: looking for another guy to lead this team. And I said, okay, fine,

17
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 4: what would you like me to do? They said, well,

18
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:46,960
Speaker 4: well you probably started triple A work your way back up.

19
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:49,519
Speaker 4: I talked to my wife. I'm like, what do you

20
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:52,199
Speaker 4: think about this? This is fantastic. She says, let's give

21
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 4: it a whirl. So I can't say the team yet,

22
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 4: but I'm making a comeback. This is going to be

23
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 4: absolutely incredible. I have been working out. I've been hitting

24
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 4: with my son and his eleven year old team, and

25
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 4: it's it's been absolutely a whirlwind, and you know, thoughts

26
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:08,959
Speaker 4: are going every which way. So this is exciting. I'm

27
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 4: making a comeback.

28
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 2: You've been hitting with your eleven year old team. It's

29
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:20,320
Speaker 2: always funny as you've been working out.

30
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 3: Good April Fools. Hey, Tod Fathers coming back to the

31
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 3: kitchen right after the show. I'm gonna get a great

32
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 3: freaking sandwich. What are you putting on that thing?

33
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:32,320
Speaker 2: Oh?

34
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 4: I might go, I might go Italian man, a little.

35
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 2: Chicken farm I got you.

36
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:45,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, all good, but a little mazarell on there would

37
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 4: be pretty sexy sandwich later.

38
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:50,520
Speaker 3: Hey, with words like that, we got to keep you.

39
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 3: You can't get back on the field when you're talking

40
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 3: like that. That is verbal poetry right there. All right,

41
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 3: so we did it. We were talking for what three minutes?

42
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 3: We're like April Fools. Okay, crats. You don't like April Fools?

43
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 3: What's wrong with it?

44
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 2: I don't know.

45
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 1: Like I was never like a big prank guy. I'm

46
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 1: not sure why. Like guys, you're like you must have

47
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 1: been like a big, big time prankster. I like the

48
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 1: long game pranks like where you like tell somebody something

49
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 1: and then like you forget about it for years and

50
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,640
Speaker 1: then they come back to you and they're like, wait,

51
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 1: that wasn't true.

52
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:23,360
Speaker 2: I really thought.

53
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 4: Twelve, you're gullible, you're funny, you got a good personality,

54
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,080
Speaker 4: and you know everybody, and you're a big guy, like

55
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 4: big guys are usually the funniest ones, and that you

56
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 4: can't really get stuff over and you know, credit credit

57
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 4: to you for not doing it. But at the same time,

58
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 4: ish don't think so.

59
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:45,360
Speaker 1: My daughter loves April Fools Day. My daughter loves aple.

60
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: I mean, there's something cooking for sure in this house

61
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 1: after practice tonight.

62
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,400
Speaker 3: Oh no, says the guy who fell on his face

63
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 3: on opening Day. He does not like pranks.

64
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 4: He's not the fun guy. Well he got money for

65
00:02:59,320 --> 00:02:59,920
Speaker 4: that prank though.

66
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,919
Speaker 1: That's just me only like someone else. I'm just I'm

67
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 1: I'm affecting somebody. I'm not affecting anybody else.

68
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 2: That was just me.

69
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 1: I didn't embarrass anybody else by making them look like,

70
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 1: oh man, I.

71
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 2: Made that guy look stupid.

72
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 1: No way he believed Todd was gonna go back and

73
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:18,240
Speaker 1: play for the Brewers.

74
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:24,799
Speaker 3: Michael, one of our superstars behind the scenes said tell

75
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 3: me why I believe that for a second, and that's

76
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 3: why we do it exactly one time per year, one time.

77
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 3: I don't like my stuff that gets tired. But once

78
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 3: per three sixty five, I'm like, that's fine.

79
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 4: Plenty of fine. You can do anything you want today,

80
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 4: honestly and get away with it. You might, you might

81
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 4: tick some people off, but at the same token, just

82
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 4: go ahead and do it. Because I've seen on Instagram,

83
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 4: like there's there's ten of them, they said. I saw

00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 3: and I are kids, you're like going to the end

112
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,000

113
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,120
Speaker 3: you listening to the radio, we're everything. But yeah, i'd

114
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 3: listen to the radio. That's a great example, right, I'd

115
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 3: be in bed at night as a kid, listening to

116
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,599
Speaker 3: the radio, getting ready for them at some point to

117
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,600
Speaker 3: talk about the Mets for a few minutes. I'm oh,

118
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,839
Speaker 3: I can't wait till they talk about stop talking about

119
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,239
Speaker 3: whatever other team, right, Stop talking about the New York Rangers.

120

121
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,280
Speaker 3: You can't fast forward now, you're just like, oh, everything

122
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,839
Speaker 3: I need to know on the Snakes or on the Mets,

123
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,159

126
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 3: DBACS fan or if you're a Dodgers hater and you

127
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 3: think this could be the team that takes them down,

128
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 3: then go for it. So congrats to them. And then

00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 3: him on later this week, but he probably had a

158
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 3: threshold and it wasn't met and he said I've got

159
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 3: kiddos at home. I made enough and I'm good.

160
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 1: Doesn't mean that he doesn't think the amount of money

161
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 1: he was offered is not a lot of money. It

162
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 1: just means there is like a line where you're just like, well,

163
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 1: why would I not get as much as this person?

164
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 1: Because I did this and I have done that, I've

165
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 1: lost this weight, I'm ready to go. I'm willing to

166
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: be a closer if necessary. That was talked about for

167
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 1: like two minutes this offseason. But like for teams to

168
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:52,200
Speaker 1: not value him enough, it just shows how much they.

169
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 2: Really wanted him.

170
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 1: And you know you're not just going to do it

171
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 1: for the money. Yes, it's a lot of money, no

172
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: matter how much you've made or how much you've not made,

173
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 1: but you're not doing it just for the money. There's

174
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 1: like a there's like a value to the next guy too.

175
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 3: Mm hmm. Yeah, well said.

176
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 4: And now he looks fresh too, he looks spry, he's

177
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 4: ready to rock for family time. It's good.

178
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, you got in shape. Yeah to run around with

179
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 3: the kids. I like it.

180
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 1: Look good at the picnic, lance Lynn might have a

181
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 1: shirt off at the picnic. First picnic it gets to

182
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 1: celebrate this year.

183
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 3: Mm hmmm. I mean he's going to bring a champagne

184
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 3: bottle of the picnic, Like, is this what we do?

185
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 4: Let's go.

186
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,719
Speaker 3: He's retired and it doesn't have to work. Just hang out,

187
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 3: have a good time. Yeah, celebrate it, that's all. I'm

188
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 3: not saying to bring the bottle every day, but celebrate

189
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 3: it one time, one time. Lance. Of course, we'll talk

190
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 3: to him later this week. Fam, I hope you have

191
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,400

Speaker 3: avid spot Entango fan. Okay, And she uses the code

00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,120

209
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 3: All right, we got a lot to hit today, so

210
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:55,079
Speaker 3: let's charge charge about whoa jerks and Profar had an

211
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 3: awesome year last year and we just started the season

212
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:03,199
Speaker 3: and he is suspended for eighty games. John haym enlisting

213
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 3: this tweet that the drug hCG with the C and

214
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 3: the G capitalized, is a masking agent used to restart

215
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 3: natural testosterone production after a steroid cycle. Manny Ramirez also

216
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 3: famously failed for hCG. Now we're not gonna read the

217
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 3: entire apology because you can basically just copy paste from

218
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:28,920
Speaker 3: prior ones. But he did say, this is the key part.

219
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:33,560
Speaker 3: He would never knowingly do anything to cheat the system

220
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:35,680
Speaker 3: because of his deep love and respect for the game.

221
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 3: He got tested eight times last season, never was positive.

222
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:42,559
Speaker 3: All good, But then where's the explanation or where's a

223
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 3: little bit more detail? Did he tell us, Hey, this

224
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 3: is complete, bs, I don't know what this is I've

225
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:51,400
Speaker 3: never been involved. It's always vague, it's oops. I never

226
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 3: would do this, but he did put this out there.

227
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:58,520
Speaker 3: Todd fathered pretty strongly that he would never knowingly do

228
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:02,560
Speaker 3: anything to cheat it, knowingly do anything. Yeah, do you

229
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:03,079
Speaker 3: believe him?

230
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:07,840
Speaker 4: No? I I don't. I think the problem is you

231
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 4: got to look back to last year, you know, and

232
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,319
Speaker 4: and see you got to look back to every year

233
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:17,200
Speaker 4: he's played, because now the speculation is going to be

234
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 4: is this his first time? It hasn't been doing it

235
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:23,200
Speaker 4: for years? Did he do it to get ahead of

236
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 4: the game last year and all of a sudden, you know,

237
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 4: he put up some big numbers, you know he bet.

238
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,719
Speaker 4: Everybody's like, oh, we bet bet on himself? Well, yeah,

239
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 4: of course he did. But now you said he eight

240
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 4: times last year, right, So.

241
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 3: The masking Yeah, the masking agent is for masking.

242
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's the cover covering up. So it's unfortunate. Man.

243
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 4: We've been down this road with a lot of guys,

244
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 4: and it's it is. It's very unfortunate to hear about

245
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 4: such a love ballplayer that has been playing for a while.

246
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 4: You know, I love him. I have a respect for

247
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 4: the guy. We've always talked about little League World Series

248
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 4: and you know how he's won it and I've won

249
00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:00,200
Speaker 4: it and we've had that connection. It's just it's disappointing,

250
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 4: you know at the end of the day when you

251
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 4: see stuff like this, but you do hear it all

252
00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 4: the time. Now you know, it's a little bit less

253
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 4: than usual. But now there's now you got to think

254
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 4: about every time he's played, like you know, and that's

255
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 4: fair for a fan to say, hey, like listen, you know,

256
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,960
Speaker 4: well this can't be the first time he's ever taken it.

257
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 4: You know, when when has he done it? So there's

258
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 4: just a lot of things that goes through your head.

259
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 4: Now it's just that one time when you lie about

260
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:29,320
Speaker 4: something or when you do something mischievous, people are always

261
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,199
Speaker 4: going to second guess everything you do. Now, so it

262
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:33,319
Speaker 4: is it's disappointing and unfortunate.

263
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,120
Speaker 1: Before I go on my rent, I got I have

264
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,680
Speaker 1: a question for Todd. Todd, do you think anybody that

265
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,959
Speaker 1: ever tests positive and gets eighty games or before when

266
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 1: it was fifty games, is ever not guilty of it

267
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 1: actually didn't do it? Or do you think every steroid

268
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:52,440
Speaker 1: user that's ever been test that's ever tested positive is

269
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 1: a user.

270
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 4: That's a really good question. I would say most of

271
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:01,359
Speaker 4: them are users. I would say, may be a slight percentage,

272
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 4: might have put a wrong cream on, Like I remember,

273
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,400
Speaker 4: I forget who was they put an athlete's foot cream on,

274
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 4: and you know they had some sort of steroid in there.

275
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 4: If that's what happened, okay, But I always give the

276
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:15,320
Speaker 4: benefit of the doubt if you want the truth. But

277
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,720
Speaker 4: the more and more it happens, you know, I would

278
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 4: say ninety percent, I would say, do it. That's ten percent.

279
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:22,320
Speaker 4: But just unfortunate.

280
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,200
Speaker 1: I think I think we're in a generation now that

281
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:30,439
Speaker 1: we don't speculate this. We don't speculate it when guys

282
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:34,400
Speaker 1: have big years. Back when I first got drafted, back

283
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,199
Speaker 1: when I first you know, was even jumping into the

284
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 1: big leagues in twenty ten, like there was dudes like

285
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,520
Speaker 1: anytime anybody had a big year, or like they showed

286
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:45,439
Speaker 1: up and it was like, whoa that dude put on

287
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 1: a lot of weight, How did that happen?

288
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 2: There was speculation.

289
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 1: We're gone from that, and I love that we're gone

290
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:53,440
Speaker 1: from that because that means the testing is working. What

291
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:57,560
Speaker 1: I don't love is the fact that there are people

292
00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:01,320
Speaker 1: out there, excuse me, the people that I know that

293
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:06,720
Speaker 1: I played with that tested positive that now Major League

294
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,199
Speaker 1: Baseball is saying, well, hey, you know what, we may

295
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,200
Speaker 1: have messed up on some of these, but you know what,

296
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:15,080
Speaker 1: keep it under the rug. And I'm saying this without

297
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 1: with with backing from the people that said it. You

298
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 1: can't say that every single person that tests positive is

299
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 1: one hundred percent guilty. But when Major League Baseball comes

300
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 1: up and they say they give you the suspension and

301
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 1: then you give a very vague apology like this, you question, like,

302
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 1: what is the real motive? Why can't why can't we

303
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 1: allow Profar to come out and say what really happened?

304
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 1: How did this really happen? Because if it were me, Todd, I,

305
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 1: if and I was wrongly accused, if I never knowingly

306
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 1: did this on purpose, I would I would scream to

307
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 1: the high hills. Major Baseball would tell me, no, you

308
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 1: got you gotta stop talking. Okay, guess what, guys, yesterday

309
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball just called me and said, I have

310
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:09,760
Speaker 1: to stop talking. I did not do this, and I

311
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 1: want to get to the bottom of this, because that's

312
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,120
Speaker 1: what you do when you are not guilty. You you

313
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 1: go out there and you bang on everybody's door, even

314
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 1: if it's just one person that wants to listen, because

315
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 1: to me, the guys who didn't do this should not

316
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 1: be lumped in with the guys that did do it.

317
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 1: And also, why all of a sudden do we just

318
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 1: let this slide under the rug. To me, it's a

319
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:37,040
Speaker 1: Players Association thing, it's a Major League Baseball associated it's

320
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 1: a Major League Baseball thing. Like Jerkson Profar are still

321
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 1: going to get his money minus eighty games, he still

322
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 1: gets his contract. Anybody know who Jose Asukar is. He

323
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:51,680
Speaker 1: was another guy that was an outfielder for the Padres

324
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 1: last year who had an opportunity to maybe break into

325
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 1: the big leagues. You know what, he ended up going

326
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 1: to the Mets this year. Now he's dfayed and you

327
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 1: sit there and you go, well, what if he had

328
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,320
Speaker 1: done steroids, would he have had a breakout year? Well,

329
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 1: the Padres didn't need him anymore because Profar had a

330
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:15,240
Speaker 1: breakout year. There's more than just it affecting the game

331
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 1: and the outcome and the Braves now because he led

332
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:22,160
Speaker 1: them astray saying that this was oh, this was actually me,

333
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:27,840
Speaker 1: I just changed my lower half. There's like, to me,

334
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 1: I'm just not like you went and worked on your

335
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:32,520
Speaker 1: lower half with Fernando Tatisa and his dad.

336
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:36,960
Speaker 2: Sorry, like I'm.

337
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,760
Speaker 1: Just maybe I'm wrong, and maybe I'll get roasted for

338
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 1: this because I'm a career two nine hitter.

339
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:43,080
Speaker 2: I get it.

340
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 1: If I had done steroids, I might have hit two eleven.

341
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 1: Who knows, But you know what, I didn't do it.

342
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:53,680
Speaker 1: But just come out and be honest. Let's ever let

343
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:58,880
Speaker 1: everybody be honest with what happened, because not everybody should

344
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:01,240
Speaker 1: be lumped into the Oh well, he tested positive, so

345
00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:04,480
Speaker 1: that's a that's a you know, that's a red mark

346
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 1: on his career. Like, let everybody come out. Everybody that's

347
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,679
Speaker 1: ever tested positive, come out and say what it is.

348
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:11,679
Speaker 1: And if you don't want to say to me, that

349
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:13,320
Speaker 1: assumes more guilt.

350
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:13,920
Speaker 4: Okay.

351
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,360
Speaker 3: So Profar actually came up a few days ago when

352
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:19,119
Speaker 3: we were in Cincinnati, and I'm going to run the

353
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 3: clip back. Yeah, good player, really really good on bass. Guy,

354
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 3: very good.

355
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:29,159
Speaker 1: And he raised his average ex of velocity his average

356
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 1: ex of velocity by five.

357
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:31,240
Speaker 2: Mile per hour.

358
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 3: Wow, which is insane.

359
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 2: Which is insane at that point in your career.

360
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know how you do that.

361
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 4: That is true, probably went down. It's a weight size

362
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:43,440
Speaker 4: and bat.

363
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 1: Is that what it was? He went higher, he went

364
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:48,400
Speaker 1: a longer and heavier bat, and so he just started

365
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:53,439
Speaker 1: hitting longer and longer and shorter, longer, shorter, darker, and

366
00:17:53,600 --> 00:18:00,199
Speaker 1: lighter bat. Yes, two tones, flame tempered bats, and he

367
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,880
Speaker 1: was taking he was taking a bone and boning down

368
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 1: the bat.

369
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 2: That's what it was.

370
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 4: And the knob was not there anymore.

371
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:13,920
Speaker 3: All right. So here's the exit below surge for jerks

372
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,480
Speaker 3: and profile from twenty twenty three to twenty twenty four

373
00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 3: that Kratz was talking about. When you watch that clip,

374
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 3: you're like, oh, Krat's new Nope, but he didn't know.

375
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:24,239
Speaker 3: But you can do some math in a number of

376
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:27,520
Speaker 3: ways and go this seems fishy, but I'm going to

377
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 3: kind of believe it. There's your exit velocity spike. I mean,

378
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:35,359
Speaker 3: nobody does this remem from eighty six point five to

379
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 3: ninety one point one. Sometimes early career, maybe something happens

380
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 3: and you get stronger and you make a change. But

381
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,600
Speaker 3: you know what is he thirty thirty one? Whatever it is.

382
00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:48,840
Speaker 3: To see this spike, it certainly adds to the case.

383
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,160
Speaker 3: Alex Verdugo was picked up a couple of weeks ago,

384
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 3: we were like, oh, it's kind of some extra depth. Okay,

385
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,639
Speaker 3: well they probably knew that there was a situation brewing

386
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 3: and that happened.

387
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 4: Because No, No, I was was just going to say, oh,

388
00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 4: go ahead, go ahead, jod go ahead. No. I was

389
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 4: going to say, like when you find out that you

390
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 4: failed the drug test, unless this doesn't happen anymore, it's

391
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,879
Speaker 4: you get it, like a couple of weeks. Notice if

392
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 4: I'm not mistaken, like you get ten to fourteen days, Hey,

393
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,040
Speaker 4: you know we're gonna do this, then you can say, hey,

394
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 4: I want to get it looked at again. Whatever heck

395
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 4: that is. I'm just drawing a blank appeal, thank you.

396
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 4: And after the appeal, they're like, hey, came back nav again.

397
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,920
Speaker 4: We're going to announce it at this time. So they

398
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,679
Speaker 4: didn't know ahead of time. That's that's for sure. So

399
00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:38,639
Speaker 4: we do. Unless things have changed, they're like, oh, you

400
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:40,679
Speaker 4: got it, we already announced it. No, that can't happen.

401
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:42,879
Speaker 4: That's that's not for the but go ahead, cratzy.

402
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:43,240
Speaker 3: Sorry.

403
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:46,440
Speaker 1: No, what I was going to say was the rule

404
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,640
Speaker 1: used to be the team does not find out because

405
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,199
Speaker 1: I remember asking the players Association, because it was like,

406
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:56,720
Speaker 1: wait a minute, a team signs a suspected steroid user

407
00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 1: or whatever like, and they can just go out and

408
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 1: get somebody new in the meantime while they're waiting for

409
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,920
Speaker 1: the test. And what I was told, maybe Ken knows more.

410
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:08,359
Speaker 1: What I was told was the team does not find

411
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:12,240
Speaker 1: out unless the player tells the team, unless the player

412
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 1: leaks it. I think you remember the whole Ryan Braun

413
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:19,239
Speaker 1: thing like that should not have been leaked until the

414
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,639
Speaker 1: investigation was completed, because I know some other guys that

415
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:26,120
Speaker 1: tested positive and that investigation took a long time, oh man,

416
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,920
Speaker 1: and it grinded on them. It grinded on them so bad,

417
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:30,880
Speaker 1: like they were the worst player ever when they were

418
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:34,800
Speaker 1: when they were during during that investigation part of it.

419
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,200
Speaker 3: So he might have told them. He might not, but whatever,

420
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 3: we can ask at some point, I'm sure. I mean,

421
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:43,360
Speaker 3: the show goes deep on this, all right, last thing

422
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,159
Speaker 3: real quick, because you guys are pretty heated on this.

423
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:48,639
Speaker 3: Should the suspension be longer? Should you go to a

424
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 3: full season now that it's pretty rare, No.

425
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:57,120
Speaker 1: Because they haven't, because they haven't perfected the system yet.

426
00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:02,359
Speaker 1: They haven't perfected the dudes that test positive and didn't

427
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 1: do any actually didn't do anything, And I agree with

428
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:08,920
Speaker 1: Todd it's probably five percent. But I know there is

429
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,359
Speaker 1: guys out there. I know for a fact there are

430
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 1: guys out there that tested positive and did not take anything,

431
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,320
Speaker 1: and they haven't perfected it yet. So no, But what

432
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,600
Speaker 1: I think they should do is they should start hitting

433
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:22,959
Speaker 1: you where it hurts. And I'm not saying guaranteed contracts,

434
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:26,439
Speaker 1: because you can never take players guarantee contracts away. Hit

435
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,280
Speaker 1: him where it hurts. You know what, You're never allowed

436
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:32,199
Speaker 1: to be an All Star again. You're never allowed to

437
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 1: be a whatever because there's plenty of guys. Oh he's

438
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:41,439
Speaker 1: an ambassador now for this team. Two time offender, this

439
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 1: guy's the nicest guy ever, two time offender. This guy

440
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 1: got popped and he didn't even he got popped in

441
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,480
Speaker 1: a paper trail and people are like, wow, what a

442
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 1: team leader. Amazing, he made his first All Star game.

443
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,280
Speaker 1: All that stuff. Your awards should be stripped away.

444
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:03,120
Speaker 3: Okay, I like it. Yeah, we'll obviously talk to Ken

445
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:03,840
Speaker 3: about this later.

446
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 4: Yeah. I think you bring up some good points. I'm

447
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,680
Speaker 4: not I'm not sure I'm about the All Star part. Yeah,

448
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:12,479
Speaker 4: I mean, because you know, you see in other sports

449
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 4: as well. The guys still come back make all stars.

450
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 4: But I mean, maybe take those eighty days. I mean,

451
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:20,480
Speaker 4: or maybe I don't. I just don't know. I don't

452
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:22,440
Speaker 4: want to expect it. But if you get to spend

453
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 4: it for eighty days, do you get those eighty days

454
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:25,080
Speaker 4: on service time?

455
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:29,160
Speaker 3: Still we don't remember about the service time, but like, hey,

456
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:29,800
Speaker 3: you don't get.

457
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,360
Speaker 4: If that's the case, take those eighty days away from

458
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:33,200
Speaker 4: service time as.

459
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,720
Speaker 3: Well, that it doesn't matter as much. But I get

460
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:36,200
Speaker 3: what you're saying.

461
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:39,000
Speaker 4: For an early player, there's got maybe there's something more

462
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:40,080
Speaker 4: that that they have to do.

463
00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:44,400
Speaker 3: But if you're a superstar in a Hall of Fame candidate,

464
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:46,359
Speaker 3: then I mean, you're not getting in. People aren't going

465
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:48,520
Speaker 3: to vote you in these days. But anyway, all right,

466
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 3: let's just uh continue the conversation later on with Ken,

467
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:55,879
Speaker 3: but good deep dive here, profar Out. Braves are struggling

468
00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 3: to They're winless so far to start the year. Dodgers

469
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:01,440
Speaker 3: took them out easy last night. We'll take some little

470
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:04,639
Speaker 3: fangs the Tigers get on the board after falling to

471
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 3: the Dodgers in the first few games. They won nine

472
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 3: to six yesterday Obviously, We're not gonna get to every

473
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:10,439
Speaker 3: single game in every show, so we're trying to do

474
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,359
Speaker 3: this morning breaks. Let us know if you like it.

475
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,080
Speaker 3: Tigers are now one and three. Jackson job is nasty.

476
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,200
Speaker 3: Tiger's had a six run first off Emerson Hancock, who

477
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:23,080
Speaker 3: I spoke about as the person I'm concerned about this offseason. Yes,

478
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,919
Speaker 3: there's a lot down the middle quadrant of the plate

479
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,640
Speaker 3: and for the Tigers labor torres left oblique strain ten day,

480
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 3: I l but Tigers are gonna be good. I was

481
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 3: pretty pissed about some of the criticism on the Tigers

482
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:42,119
Speaker 3: after falling in three games to the freaking Dodgers. Like relax, Okay, also,

483
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 3: they didn't get trounced. They're gonna be good. But anyway,

484
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 3: they lose glabor for some time period. So does that

485
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 3: mean Cole Keith goes to second and uh at first again?

486
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 4: For now? I wouldn't move. He's going pretty good. Yeah,

487
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:02,600
Speaker 4: leave him where he's at. But everybody else, you know,

488
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 4: aj hintskin and maneuver people left and right. And you know,

489
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:09,280
Speaker 4: you think about the schedule that this team has run.

490
00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 4: The get go this West Coast swing, Oh my goodness,

491
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 4: you know if they could come out somewhere sort of

492
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:16,920
Speaker 4: five hundred, that would be fantastic. Do I think it's

493
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:20,440
Speaker 4: gonna happen. Probably not, But again, this team has done

494
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 4: it before. Hinch has moved guys around in different spots

495
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:26,119
Speaker 4: in the batting order, in different spots on the field,

496
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:30,200
Speaker 4: different dhs. He is not afraid to put guys anywhere

497
00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:34,040
Speaker 4: and move them around. So I'm not really worried about this.

498
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 4: It stings a little bit, Labor Torres. I love the guy,

499
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 4: you know, he finally got out of New York and

500
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 4: now you got a ten day Johnny. I think it'll

501
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 4: be a lot, not a lot more, but I think

502
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:47,600
Speaker 4: it'll be more than ten days until he gets back

503
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 4: on his feet a little bit. But to start the

504
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 4: year off like this, it's just to kick in the

505
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:52,879
Speaker 4: rear end, you know.

506
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a one year contract. He's trying to prove

507
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:56,680
Speaker 3: it and get back to the market at a young

508
00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,840
Speaker 3: age and make make bank. Yeah, Keith played second yesterday.

509
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 3: Want to make sure I was right on that. But

510
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:04,959
Speaker 3: Toork's gonna play first. I guess at least for now,

511
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 3: you got to keep that bat in the lineup. Suddenly

512
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,160
Speaker 3: he's didn't clean up. He was two for five yesterday.

513
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:10,639
Speaker 3: Is off to a ridiculous start.

514
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 4: It's got to be a torpedo bat.

515
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:14,919
Speaker 3: No, we'll get to that, kidding.

516
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,920
Speaker 1: If you want to look up, take advantage of your opportunity.

517
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:22,400
Speaker 1: Spencer Torkolsen like people are like, oh, bro, I didn't

518
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 1: get any chance. They only let me start on opening day. Hey,

519
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 1: that was your chance. Look at what Toork's doing. I

520
00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:30,040
Speaker 1: don't know that he's going to hit three hundred and

521
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:33,000
Speaker 1: make an All Star team or any of that, but hey,

522
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:35,840
Speaker 1: he took his chance right now and he's getting clean

523
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 1: up for the boys.

524
00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:41,800
Speaker 3: Hey, a reminder to everyone. Our watch along is tomorrow night,

525
00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:44,399
Speaker 3: the first one we'll do more seven o'clock Eastern time,

526
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 3: and it is the Yankees and the Diamondbacks. We'll have

527
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,440
Speaker 3: perspective on the Yankee side with Derek Lewandowski, our Pinch

528
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 3: Stripe Territory officionado and host Jesse Friedman, host of the

529
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,800
Speaker 3: New Snakes Territory, and Cam Maben will be on with

530
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,200
Speaker 3: me as well, So you can download that app. It's

531
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,639
Speaker 3: free to get an account, and then we'll stream the

532
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 3: game together and give you kind of an alt cast.

533
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:08,399
Speaker 3: So we'll do our version of the Manning cast Ft style.

534
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 3: Let's hit this. Red Sox are in the news a

535
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,400
Speaker 3: lot right now, Kratz, what did you think about the

536
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:22,120
Speaker 3: Garrett Crochet extension. I saw it. I was like, oh, wow,

537
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:24,640
Speaker 3: he's still under team control for a couple of years.

538
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:26,919
Speaker 3: Good for him, Great job on that deal. I mean,

539
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:29,400
Speaker 3: that's a big money deal for someone I just talked

540
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,040
Speaker 3: to Ken about that. You know, has had injury concerns,

541
00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,920
Speaker 3: that had one good season last year. Stuff is off

542
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:37,320
Speaker 3: the charts. But the Red Sox clearly did not want

543
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 3: to let him get to free agency.

544
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:41,920
Speaker 1: I don't think he wanted to get the free agency either.

545
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 1: He said it last year, Hey you want to trade

546
00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:47,479
Speaker 1: for me, you got to you gotta extend me if

547
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,840
Speaker 1: you trade for me. The White Sox were like, oh crap,

548
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:52,959
Speaker 1: Like I get it.

549
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 2: He's not dumb.

550
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,199
Speaker 1: This is good money too, Like this is you just

551
00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:00,399
Speaker 1: you brought up Corbyn Burns. Corbyn Burns was in a

552
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:05,239
Speaker 1: open market. Crochet knows this is like, this is a

553
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:08,680
Speaker 1: pitching is fleeting. Like if you come off a Tommy

554
00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,440
Speaker 1: John surgery, you got about six years to your next one.

555
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,439
Speaker 2: Is the average not for everybody? You know?

556
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 1: Is that sped up because he throws a hundred. Is

557
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:19,240
Speaker 1: that sped up because he throws a ninety two mile

558
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,639
Speaker 1: an hour slider because his arms at a different angle.

559
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:22,159
Speaker 2: We don't know.

560
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:26,200
Speaker 1: But good for him to get it and the Red

561
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 1: Sox to me, I love what they did. I thought

562
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,399
Speaker 1: the Orioles should have done this with Corbyn Burns. I

563
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 1: thought they should have said, we traded for you. We

564
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,520
Speaker 1: gave up some big pieces for the Red Sox. They

565
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:40,040
Speaker 1: gave him Kyle Teel monstrous piece in that. There's other

566
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 1: pieces too, but lock it in. This is worth it

567
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 1: to the Red Sox, and this is really worth it to.

568
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:50,720
Speaker 4: Crochet absolute stud. It's gonna be a great pitcher for

569
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,439
Speaker 4: a long time, in my opinion, a top five pitcher

570
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,679
Speaker 4: in the league, one of the best left handers you're

571
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:58,760
Speaker 4: going to see play the game for a very long

572
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,200
Speaker 4: time if you could stay health. I think this is

573
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:03,199
Speaker 4: a great job by the Red Sox to lock a

574
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 4: guy in then needs to be locked in. He's young,

575
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 4: he's spry, he throws the ball really well, and he's

576
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,720
Speaker 4: going to be a staple for the Red Sox moving forward.

577
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 4: And now he's got he could sit back and relax

578
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:16,520
Speaker 4: and just play the game too as well. You know,

579
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,479
Speaker 4: everybody that comes up they get paid, don't. I'm not

580
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:21,359
Speaker 4: saying they don't get paid a lot of money. But

581
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,720
Speaker 4: to get that contract under your belt, you could kind

582
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:26,679
Speaker 4: of breathe a little bit better knowing that, Hey, I

583
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,840
Speaker 4: don't you know, necessarily have to you know, go out

584
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,080
Speaker 4: there and be Nolan Ryan every day. I could just

585
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:36,040
Speaker 4: be myself and still get guys out and still perform exceptional.

586
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 4: Not a bad deal at all for both. And yes,

587
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 4: I did say top five.

588
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,080
Speaker 3: He can get another bite at the apple. Yeah, I

589
00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 3: mean so if he opts out after twenty thirty, that's

590
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,320
Speaker 3: his age thirty one season. I mean, good for him.

591
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 3: But the owner of the Red Sox completely learned his

592
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:55,560
Speaker 3: lesson here. I think that's important too. Right, here's cheap.

593
00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 3: I mean, it's true. John Henry definitely has had a

594
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,480
Speaker 3: lot of success. He wants to win, but he was

595
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,080
Speaker 3: cheaping out. And I also had PTSD from past deals,

596
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:05,720
Speaker 3: and that happens, right, That hurts. Chrisale will be the

597
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 3: first one to tell you that he felt like he

598
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,520
Speaker 3: was a bust after that contract was signed. Of course,

599
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:12,880
Speaker 3: they won a World Series, but that was right before

600
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:16,479
Speaker 3: the contract was signed, and John Henry wants to avoid that.

601
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:18,360
Speaker 3: So what does he do. He basically finds the guy

602
00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:21,959
Speaker 3: who looks very much like Chrysale and says, I'm going

603
00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,120
Speaker 3: to sign a long term now, so I don't let

604
00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 3: him get the free agency because We've kind of sucked

605
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,720
Speaker 3: the last few years and I'm getting crushed by fans

606
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,960
Speaker 3: and they were starting to talk with their wallet. And

607
00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:36,000
Speaker 3: let's not overlook that Kratz ratings were down on the

608
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,760
Speaker 3: TV side, stadium was looking empty, and then it had

609
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:41,720
Speaker 3: been in a long time. This is super, super devoted

610
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,160
Speaker 3: or fan base to the franchise, but you got to

611
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 3: show some effort on both sides. And you cannot ignore

612
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 3: paying top flight starters when you're a team like that.

613
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:55,040
Speaker 3: You can't just completely skip that part of the equation.

614
00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:57,719
Speaker 3: There is supreme risk, but you might as well at

615
00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:00,400
Speaker 3: least do it with some younger pitchers. I know he's

616
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:02,240
Speaker 3: he's you know, had some injuries and also we just

617
00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 3: haven't seen him as a starter for long. But it's

618
00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:07,400
Speaker 3: the guy who at least you're gonna get in those

619
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:10,280
Speaker 3: you know, mid to late twenties for the length of

620
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:10,760
Speaker 3: that deal.

621
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:14,480
Speaker 1: Young young is key there. He's not even twenty six yet,

622
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,600
Speaker 1: he'll turn twenty six this season. But to me, who

623
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 1: got him this contract?

624
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:21,080
Speaker 2: More? Was it?

625
00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 1: Because we talk about, oh, you know he's got PTSD

626
00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:28,440
Speaker 1: from the David Price signing or the or the uh,

627
00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 1: you know, Chris Sale signing, But who got it for him?

628
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 1: The fact that Chris Sale shows if he's healthy, he

629
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 1: can bounce back and be a cy young even though

630
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:41,120
Speaker 1: he didn't do it in Red Soccer Land? Or was

631
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,280
Speaker 1: it the mookie Betts like I have gotten so much

632
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:48,120
Speaker 1: flak for letting a superstar go. So which of those?

633
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 1: Which of those cases? May John Henry say, all right,

634
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,760
Speaker 1: this is an opportunity we have. This dude's still only

635
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:57,760
Speaker 1: twenty five years old. How do we lock him up

636
00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:01,040
Speaker 1: to be our future eight? He's not an AC yet,

637
00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:02,000
Speaker 1: but a future ace.

638
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:05,080
Speaker 3: I'm going to go off the board here and give

639
00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 3: you a name that you would not expect me to

640
00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:08,960
Speaker 3: throw out there. And I haven't seen this anywhere, so

641
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 3: maybe I'm coming up with something. But Yamamoto who signs

642
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:16,120
Speaker 3: with the Dodgers a year ago, and of course he

643
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:18,920
Speaker 3: comes over from Japan with all the credentials, But don't

644
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:20,800
Speaker 3: overlook the biggest part of that signing and why he

645
00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 3: got that much money last year. Yong super young starter

646
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 3: and obviously signed for a long period of time. This

647
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 3: deals about half that, less than half that in terms

648
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:34,000
Speaker 3: of years, and you're getting a guy during those age

649
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 3: you know, twenty he would be, so he's twenty five

650
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,560
Speaker 3: right now. So yeah, what twenty seven, twenty eight, twenty nine, thirty.

651
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:41,480
Speaker 3: I mean you're getting those similar years that you're going

652
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 3: to get with Yamamoto, and it's at about half the

653
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:48,280
Speaker 3: price of Yamamoto's contract and about half the years of

654
00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:50,720
Speaker 3: Yamamoto's contracts. So do you think that's a factor. We

655
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:53,680
Speaker 3: don't see starters hit the market that often at this

656
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:54,760
Speaker 3: young of an age.

657
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 1: No, I agree, I agree with that, but I don't

658
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 1: think like I think the Red Sox had to do this.

659
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,080
Speaker 1: I think this is a good ship. This is a

660
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:08,680
Speaker 1: great show. I mean, think about the last four weeks

661
00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:13,520
Speaker 1: since they signed Bregman, something that they haven't done, and

662
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:18,080
Speaker 1: since they now have extended crochet like this should Red

663
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:20,880
Speaker 1: Sox fans you can still be pissed about your team's

664
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 1: start or the fact that you know they don't have this,

665
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:28,080
Speaker 1: or that that's fine, ownership's doing it ownership that I

666
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 1: was critical of is doing it. They're doing things to

667
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 1: put their team in a good place. I mean we

668
00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:37,920
Speaker 1: heard from Corbyn Burns the Red Sox made a good push,

669
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:41,080
Speaker 1: it wasn't enough to draw them away from being home

670
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:41,800
Speaker 1: all year round.

671
00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 3: FT fam Legends never die. That is the motto for Homage.

672
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,400
Speaker 3: Go to Homage dot com and get yourself maybe one

673
00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:51,640
Speaker 3: of these teas. This was one of my favorites from

674
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 3: spring training. Got a little grape Fruit League action, nice

675
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:58,840
Speaker 3: iconic looking logo and behind me on the back is

676
00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 3: all the teams that are listed for the Grapefruit League.

677
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:03,480
Speaker 3: You've got. Of course, if you're more of an Arizona person,

678
00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:06,240
Speaker 3: you've got the T shirt for that too. But Kratz,

679
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:07,880
Speaker 3: I just love the way that they give you the

680
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 3: highest quality material and then a little vintage action if

681
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:13,080
Speaker 3: you're looking for it.

682
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:15,280
Speaker 2: I love the vintage.

683
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:17,520
Speaker 1: I've been a baseball fan my whole life, and teams

684
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 1: change their logos. If you're looking for a logo that

685
00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:24,800
Speaker 1: your team used to have, Homage is your place to go.

686
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,320
Speaker 1: Go cop one of the old logos from the Major

687
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:30,080
Speaker 1: league teams that maybe they don't use anymore.

688
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:33,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, Homage dot Com slash foul Territory. Go to the

689

692
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:53,800
Speaker 3: FTFAM excited for this one. Let's do better than box scores.

693
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:58,280
Speaker 3: And we'll start with the Cubs and the Sacramento A's

694
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,800
Speaker 3: the opening of the ballpark that already exists, but now

695
00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:04,640
Speaker 3: is a major league park for years to come. And

696
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:09,319
Speaker 3: the Cubs welcome to the ace to Sacramento with authority,

697
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:13,560
Speaker 3: including a cycle from Carson Kelly, and basically everybody got

698
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:16,120
Speaker 3: in on the fund. Wit am I taking the over

699
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 3: all year long at this ballpark? Is that a real number?

700
00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:21,520
Speaker 3: I watched mostly the Dodger game, and then I would

701
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:23,040
Speaker 3: flip back every once in a while and I'm like,

702
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:24,359
Speaker 3: three more, three more, two more?

703
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:28,960
Speaker 4: Holy crap, look at him. Unbelievable hitting for the cycle.

704
00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:32,080
Speaker 4: I mean, that's I mean, that's a memory and something

705
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:34,400
Speaker 4: we'll never forget. You know, you're at you're at a

706
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:38,160
Speaker 4: minor league ballpark. Balls are flying left and right. I

707
00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:40,160
Speaker 4: feel like he got jammed on the triple that he

708
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,759
Speaker 4: hit the right center that was incredible. Gotta be the

709
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:48,719
Speaker 4: torpedo action. But anyway, this he now packed house, everybody

710
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:52,440
Speaker 4: enjoying it. The crowd looked excited. I even know that

711
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 4: even though the score was sixteen to three, Scottie, I

712
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:56,799
Speaker 4: think you're onto something here.

713
00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:57,080
Speaker 3: Man.

714
00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 4: It could be an over all day, every day stadium.

715
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,319
Speaker 4: So good for the Cubbies coming out there getting going,

716
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,839
Speaker 4: especially after a slow start against the Dodgers and coming

717
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:10,799
Speaker 4: out a little sluggish. But yeah, just welcome to Sacramento, man,

718
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:13,560
Speaker 4: nothing more you can say about it. It's here. It

719
00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:17,239
Speaker 4: is bold teams Tampa Sacramento Welcome. It's it's a real deal.

720
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:20,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, eighteen three Cubs were like, we're not happy to

721
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 3: be playing in a minor league park. We're gonna show it.

722
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:24,399
Speaker 3: Lawrence Butler was asked about the whole deal once he's

723
00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:26,799
Speaker 3: finally in there and settled yesterday, and you said, the

724
00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:29,320
Speaker 3: clubhouse is pretty nice. But he's like the minor league

725
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 3: field and park park. It's a minor league park, and

726
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:35,040
Speaker 3: they put forty million dollars into the whole situation. But

727
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,600
Speaker 3: there's the quote he says, Sacramento's clubhouse is quite nice.

728
00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:39,920
Speaker 3: And by the way, I'll add, I mean they have

729
00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,960
Speaker 3: a two story situation. You got to have, you know,

730
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:44,960
Speaker 3: some extra room in there. You got multiple teams that

731
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:47,480
Speaker 3: are using it home park wise, yeah, he said, but

732
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:51,239
Speaker 3: the stadium feels like a minor league stadium, and that

733
00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:53,280
Speaker 3: is what we're gonna have here. We've got two teams

734
00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:56,600
Speaker 3: doing this now, and MLB is okay overseeing that. But

735
00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:01,200
Speaker 3: John Fisher spoke to the press yesterday, I and Drelik

736
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:05,120
Speaker 3: wrote some good stories on the whole situation. You know,

737
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:09,000
Speaker 3: he did not seem concerned about anything going on obviously

738
00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:12,160
Speaker 3: with the Vegas plans and basically everything there is all

739
00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:15,560
Speaker 3: written up as hey, we're here for a little layover.

740
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:18,880
Speaker 3: Because Drelik spent about a week there in Sacramento and

741
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:21,800
Speaker 3: he said it was kind of weird, right. The fans

742
00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:24,880
Speaker 3: are excited to be able to see some major league games.

743
00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:26,440
Speaker 3: And of course here's the part I wanted to get

744
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:28,879
Speaker 3: to with Fisher for krats because I know he's gonna

745
00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:30,880
Speaker 3: love it. I'll take the quote, my favorite quote from

746
00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 3: the story, and I'm sure we will get a lot

747
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:35,480
Speaker 3: of fans who are new to baseball and want to

748
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:38,359
Speaker 3: see what this is going to be like. And then

749
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 3: we'll also get a lot of fans who will be

750
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:45,560
Speaker 3: you know, Chicago Cubs fans and Yankees fans. He's like

751
00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:48,920
Speaker 3: giggdy and Kansas City fans who are going to come

752
00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:52,160
Speaker 3: out and support their team against the Athletics. And for us,

753
00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:54,080
Speaker 3: it's all about bringing a lot of passion into the

754
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:57,200
Speaker 3: ballpark and we think that we'll be able to achieve that.

755
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:06,960
Speaker 3: What's going on because he can't. He loves talking about

756
00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:10,440
Speaker 3: other teams and other players. So I just I'm reading

757
00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:13,520
Speaker 3: through and I'm like, okay, you know, like someone's probably

758
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:14,440
Speaker 3: not coaching him, and.

759
00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:15,759
Speaker 4: You're like, you're doing good, You're doing good.

760
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:17,879
Speaker 3: And then he's like, and I love other teams coming

761
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:20,839
Speaker 3: at the park and beating us up.

762
00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:25,359
Speaker 5: Oh, I can't wait for Judge because think about it,

763
00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,360
Speaker 5: he's going to He is essentially wants to go to

764
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:31,520
Speaker 5: the smallest market possible in baseball in Las Vegas.

765
00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:35,800
Speaker 1: If he doesn't have all these other exciting teams coming

766
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:40,600
Speaker 1: into town to play, my a's he's got jack because

767
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:43,400
Speaker 1: he doesn't know how to connect with the fans. We

768
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:46,440
Speaker 1: just showed Stu Sternberg like standing up there. If Stu

769
00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:49,680
Speaker 1: Sternberg really cared about the fans and all the debacle

770
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:52,440
Speaker 1: and everything that everybody went through, Like, hey, we're suffering

771
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:55,480
Speaker 1: through this hurricane together. He'd be down, not in the

772
00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:58,640
Speaker 1: suite that they made for him and his cronies. He'd

773
00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:01,960
Speaker 1: be down with the people. So John Fisher show up

774
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:04,720
Speaker 1: for the people, go face to face with the people

775
00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:07,040
Speaker 1: that say you should sell, explain to them why you

776
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:09,799
Speaker 1: shouldn't sell. And you're wanting to put a product out

777
00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:13,759
Speaker 1: there for the true as fans. But no, he's like,

778
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:16,680
Speaker 1: oh man, it's so neat. The Cubs came in whole

779
00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:22,480
Speaker 1: historic Cubs. Can you believe sho Haano Tani's coming to Sacramento.

780
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:25,839
Speaker 1: HiT's unvolieved. It's gonna be great. They're just gonna They're

781
00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:27,799
Speaker 1: gonna sell it. They're gonna have more posters about who

782
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:29,839
Speaker 1: they're playing than who's on their team.

783
00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:33,520
Speaker 3: Well, there's barely any Sacramento stuff up. I mean, that's

784
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:37,720
Speaker 3: what the article says here from Drelik, and the mayor

785
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:40,759
Speaker 3: of Sacramento said, I'm calling them the Sacramento A's. I'm like,

786
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:43,839
Speaker 3: that's right with your chest, baby. He said, I'm gonna

787
00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:46,640
Speaker 3: buy myself a Sacramento age jersey and hat very soon.

788
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:49,880
Speaker 3: By the way, that's not gonna be available from MLB,

789
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:52,440
Speaker 3: so it's probably gonna be from a shop selling it illegally,

790
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:55,160
Speaker 3: So don't call them out too much. They get in trouble. Anyway.

791
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:59,080
Speaker 3: Back to the quote, he said, they're not calling them

792
00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 3: that as in sacremento, but we can call them that.

793
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 3: And the Kings and the Sacramento River Cats were obviously

794
00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:10,480
Speaker 3: all involved with getting this ballpark into better shape, including

795
00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:13,240
Speaker 3: the natural grass instead of the turf that they wanted

796
00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:15,680
Speaker 3: to roll with initially to save money, which would have

797
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:20,960
Speaker 3: been a disaster, and a King spokesman told Evandrelic that

798
00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:24,319
Speaker 3: they could interview one of their executives to talk about this,

799
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:27,440
Speaker 3: but only if the team could approve which quotes were

800
00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:31,480
Speaker 3: used in advance of the publication. The Athletic declined to

801
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:34,720
Speaker 3: conduct an interview under those terms. The Kings have already

802
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:38,960
Speaker 3: commented publicly on the stadium project, so Drelk said, it's

803
00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:41,560
Speaker 3: an interesting choice when they're trying to bring a team

804
00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 3: into the city and they will only let you talk

805
00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:47,120
Speaker 3: to them right that that ownership group and team situation

806
00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:53,919
Speaker 3: if they approve the quotes. Things are just always weird.

807
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:57,319
Speaker 3: This situation, she is the right word for this. Did

808
00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:58,320
Speaker 3: you see the tool shed.

809
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:03,279
Speaker 4: I did see the tool set. If they.

810
00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:07,759
Speaker 2: Press yeah, it was.

811
00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:10,480
Speaker 4: It looks like a porter John. You can't go there.

812
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:15,080
Speaker 3: It got windy at one point. That thing could bowl over.

813
00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:17,440
Speaker 3: I mean it could. You can. You can buy that

814
00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:21,520
Speaker 3: actually from our boy's on the show earlier.

815
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:22,960
Speaker 4: Mister Lord.

816
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:24,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, Brad Lord.

817
00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:27,839
Speaker 4: Listen, that looks like one of those COVID tents back

818
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:30,680
Speaker 4: in twenty twenty that they made. So they just they

819
00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:33,440
Speaker 4: found the same supplies and made it pretty good, you

820
00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:35,719
Speaker 4: know what. Listen, at the end of the day, at

821
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:37,920
Speaker 4: least the media knows where they need to go and

822
00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:39,759
Speaker 4: they can stay in there for a long time if

823
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:41,360
Speaker 4: they want. It's not like, oh, you got to be

824
00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,799
Speaker 4: set time. So I give them credit for that one.

825
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:46,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, except if there's some natural disaster warning you do

826
00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:48,440
Speaker 3: not want to be in that thing. Get to a

827
00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:52,520
Speaker 3: real safe place. Not that makes for sure, ish, but anyway, Yeah,

828
00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:54,680
Speaker 3: it's gonna be weird, you know. I mean on TV,

829
00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:58,160
Speaker 3: it looks like a minor league park. Kratz looks like

830
00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:01,080
Speaker 3: I'm watching one of the mi ILB games, and there's

831
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:05,880
Speaker 3: the concourse and then upstairs. You know, you don't have

832
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:09,000
Speaker 3: the multiple decks. You just have the the mezzanine, which

833
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:10,960
Speaker 3: is really just some sweets and that's it.

834
00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,000
Speaker 4: That's the park, all right.

835
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:15,920
Speaker 1: When the Yankees come in, are they going to extend

836
00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:19,920
Speaker 1: Are they going to expand that that media tent, because

837
00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:22,200
Speaker 1: if not, it might be one hundred and ten degrees

838
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:24,799
Speaker 1: the dude standing outside of that.

839
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:29,319
Speaker 3: Jones forget the Yanks not big enough. The Dodgers have

840
00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:32,120
Speaker 3: like thirty Japanese media members, maybe more.

841
00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:35,480
Speaker 4: They'll I was thinking the same thing. That's so funny.

842
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:37,520
Speaker 3: They'll not that thing over if you're trying to get

843
00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:41,040
Speaker 3: every media member in for a Dodgers A's matchup.

844
00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:42,640
Speaker 4: Especially depending on whose pitching.

845
00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:46,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm with you. But anyway, they started off their season,

846
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:48,200
Speaker 3: so we'll see how it goes. Cubs certainly had a

847
00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:52,960
Speaker 3: great time with the beginning of that thing. Let's get

848
00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:56,719
Speaker 3: to a couple winless teams. Tell me which team you're

849
00:41:56,719 --> 00:42:03,240
Speaker 3: more concerned about, the Minnesota Twins or the Milwaukee Brewers.

850
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:06,640
Speaker 3: Royles beat up the Brewers yesterday. Maybe it's not the

851
00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:10,280
Speaker 3: Torpedoes eleven to one. They're pitching staff kind of seems

852
00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:12,560
Speaker 3: like it's in shambles already, but I'm still gonna have faith.

853
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:15,840
Speaker 3: Brewers are gonna Brewer. Maybe not. Twins fall nine to

854
00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,239
Speaker 3: nothing to the White Sox. Chris Paddock ate up all

855
00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:21,080
Speaker 3: nine of those runs in three and a third, including

856
00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:24,280
Speaker 3: three homers, all from the Vets, Ben and Tendee, Andrew Vaughn,

857
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:27,560
Speaker 3: Michael A. Taylor, and Martin Perez with six shutout innings,

858
00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:31,080
Speaker 3: no hits allowed, off Perez to three walks, nine strikeouts.

859
00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:33,680
Speaker 3: Maybe you had a point Kratz. Martin Perez said, Hey,

860
00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:35,359
Speaker 3: we might be a playoff team. Hey they might be

861
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:38,480
Speaker 3: better than Minnesota. They won't. But the Twins look really

862
00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:40,879
Speaker 3: bad to me. I'm more concerned about them. What about you.

863
00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:46,799
Speaker 1: I'm more concerned about the Twins only because, like, if

864
00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:49,320
Speaker 1: you're if you're trying to if you're trying to figure

865
00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:53,560
Speaker 1: out how to improve improve on the edges, obviously you

866
00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:56,480
Speaker 1: need a Royce Lewis in the lineup. Obviously you need

867
00:42:56,520 --> 00:43:00,719
Speaker 1: to add to your lineup in the offseason. Because they

868
00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:03,000
Speaker 1: just missed out in the playoffs last year. They started

869
00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:08,320
Speaker 1: out really hot. They need to turn it around fast.

870
00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:13,239
Speaker 1: Because I'm afraid for Rockleball Deli's future. I don't think

871
00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:15,080
Speaker 1: I don't think it's gonna happen in the first month.

872
00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:18,919
Speaker 1: I asked Ken about it before. But if they don't

873
00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:21,880
Speaker 1: turn this around, that's who, to me is one of

874
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:24,920
Speaker 1: the solid anchors of this team. Whether or not he

875
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,880
Speaker 1: has a good voice in the clubhouse. I believe he

876
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:30,360
Speaker 1: does from what I've heard from guys. But to me,

877
00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:34,080
Speaker 1: I'm more concerned about the Twins than the Brewers because

878
00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:37,719
Speaker 1: the NL Central is, in my opinion, is gonna be

879
00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:40,600
Speaker 1: kind of muddling. Muddling or meddling. I don't know, it's

880
00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:42,680
Speaker 1: gonna be kind of just everyone's gonna be right around

881
00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:47,919
Speaker 1: the middle there, middling. To me, I think the AL

882
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:51,160
Speaker 1: Central the Twins can't get that far behind because some

883
00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:52,880
Speaker 1: dudes are gonna start running away with it.

884
00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:56,520
Speaker 4: Now I'm gonna go the opposite way. I'm I'm thinking

885
00:43:56,560 --> 00:44:00,480
Speaker 4: the Brewers just because listen the hangover from Land last year,

886
00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:05,600
Speaker 4: No Devin Williams. They're getting beat pretty bad. And then

887
00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:08,120
Speaker 4: the pitching's not looking too good either, and we always

888
00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:10,440
Speaker 4: talk about this, let's not let's pump the brakes. That's

889
00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:13,760
Speaker 4: all this. Listen, these games all count, they all count,

890
00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:16,040
Speaker 4: and you look back on the season. Now we lost

891
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:17,840
Speaker 4: by three games. Well, what happened at the beginning of

892
00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:20,040
Speaker 4: the year we went five and twenty, you know, whatever

893
00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:23,320
Speaker 4: it is example, But yeah, you think about what happened

894
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:25,479
Speaker 4: last year, the home run by Pete Alonzo and next

895
00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:28,919
Speaker 4: thing you know, Brewers coming out putting up a goose egg.

896
00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:31,759
Speaker 4: Right now, who would have saw that coming. So they

897
00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:34,279
Speaker 4: got to figure it out. They got good management, and

898
00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:37,520
Speaker 4: I think they'll be fine. But at the same time, it's,

899
00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:40,719
Speaker 4: you know, just like anything else, it still plays in

900
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:41,120
Speaker 4: your mind.

901
00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:44,960
Speaker 3: They lost the Domins to and he's I always call

902
00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:48,839
Speaker 3: it the spark plug in terms of vibes and personality there.

903
00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:51,160
Speaker 3: I mean, they've got other fun guys in the clubhouse,

904
00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:54,279
Speaker 3: but you know that one hurts too. Twins just feel

905
00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:57,040
Speaker 3: like it was such a collapse and then nothing was

906
00:44:57,040 --> 00:44:59,759
Speaker 3: done in the offseason and the teams in limbo with

907
00:44:59,840 --> 00:45:03,440
Speaker 3: the the sale. It's a weird spot for them. But

908
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:06,200
Speaker 3: I do like some of the pitching there, especially the bullpen.

909
00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:09,520
Speaker 3: It's just they got blanked by the White Sox. That's

910
00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:11,799
Speaker 3: really all we have to say. Let's talk about Adam

911
00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:15,080
Speaker 3: Outavino coming off a rough spring with the Red Sox,

912
00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:16,920
Speaker 3: but he is going to join the New York Yankees,

913
00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:19,960
Speaker 3: at least for now. Devin Williams going on the paternity list.

914
00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:23,360
Speaker 3: So Ottavino late stages of his career, trying to latch on,

915
00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:27,920
Speaker 3: and he is back with the Yanks. Yeah, funky Ottavino.

916
00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:30,000
Speaker 4: We'll see how long this lasts.

917
00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:33,960
Speaker 3: Right now, you just need to just be mediocre with

918
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,520
Speaker 3: the Yanks because they're scoring what ten runs a game exactly?

919
00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:40,920
Speaker 3: Ex Yeah, hey, twenty nineteen though he was money one

920
00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:44,399
Speaker 3: nine o era seventy three appearances for them, and then

921
00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:47,400
Speaker 3: you know the numbers fell off in twenty twenty. That

922
00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:50,520
Speaker 3: was COVID year, short sample size, all that. But anyway,

923
00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:52,360
Speaker 3: we'll see if you can kick it with the Yanks.

924
00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:55,200
Speaker 3: Last year with the Mets was a little over four

925
00:45:55,760 --> 00:45:58,680
Speaker 3: trying to hang on here towards the end of his career.

926
00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:01,360
Speaker 3: He's gotten up. What is what is that about of Vino? Anyone?

927
00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:06,319
Speaker 4: No, look it up. But he goes down as one

928
00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:09,440
Speaker 4: of those guys. We're both Yankees and Mets. Thirty four.

929
00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:11,080
Speaker 3: Nine.

930
00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:12,520
Speaker 2: I was gonna say thirty eight.

931
00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:17,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, good for him. Yeah, doing it in the league

932
00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:20,719
Speaker 3: for a minute. Also didn't get to the Mets, but

933
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:25,520
Speaker 3: they smashed the Marlins yesterday and Pete Alonzo hit a salami.

934
00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:27,320
Speaker 3: Here we go the right center field.

935
00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:30,759
Speaker 4: To right centerfield. I was that's living right right there. Yeah,

936
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:32,359
Speaker 4: that's living right So I.

937
00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:34,439
Speaker 3: Feel like no one's talking about Pete yet.

938
00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:36,960
Speaker 4: It's good. Let him stay under the radar. Let's talk

939
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:39,160
Speaker 4: about Sodo the whole time. He doesn't he doesn't need it,

940
00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:41,600
Speaker 4: he doesn't care, he doesn't want it. Let him stay

941
00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:44,440
Speaker 4: under the radar. Let Sodo talks take off and all

942
00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:47,520
Speaker 4: of a sudden, you're gonna see this team just boom skyrocket.

943
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:50,000
Speaker 4: Pete has been in the limelight with the Mets for

944
00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:52,719
Speaker 4: a long time now, and he's still gonna be Don't

945
00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:57,680
Speaker 4: get me wrong, but for him, he's enjoying everything right now.

946
00:46:57,760 --> 00:47:00,360
Speaker 4: They have a squad that's, you know, going to be

947
00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:02,839
Speaker 4: pretty good. And if they can hit like this and

948
00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:07,160
Speaker 4: he going right center like that with these watch out.

949
00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:09,960
Speaker 1: That was a Mets That was a Mets sequence that

950
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:12,160
Speaker 1: they've paid a lot of money for this offseason.

951
00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:13,600
Speaker 2: That was awesome.

952
00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:16,680
Speaker 1: Soto had a great at bat with runs on first

953
00:47:16,719 --> 00:47:19,279
Speaker 1: and second. I thought they were gonna steal them three

954
00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:22,400
Speaker 1: to two. They didn't. They kept them. They kept them

955
00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:24,800
Speaker 1: there because they know, you know what, the rare times

956
00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:27,200
Speaker 1: that Soto takes that borderline pitch you don't want them,

957
00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:30,000
Speaker 1: you know, strike them out, throw them out so they

958
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:32,520
Speaker 1: didn't steal them. Soto takes a slider in the dirt.

959
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:35,239
Speaker 1: Pete just took like I get at his home run.

960
00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:38,520
Speaker 1: His Grand Slam was awesome. But the pitches before that

961
00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:40,760
Speaker 1: that he took, he fouled off a three to one heater.

962
00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:44,240
Speaker 1: He just looked very comfortable up there. And then obviously

963
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:47,080
Speaker 1: he did that with some extra strength.

964
00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:50,759
Speaker 3: Yes he did. Yeah, I think he's gonna have a

965
00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:53,200
Speaker 3: huge year. I do. Anyway, if you want more on

966
00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:55,520
Speaker 3: the Mets, Mets Up is the show. It's part of

967
00:47:55,560 --> 00:47:57,800
Speaker 3: the ft netwhere you can see the QR code bottom

968
00:47:57,800 --> 00:48:01,040
Speaker 3: corner of the screen. And then one more quickie on

969
00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:04,120
Speaker 3: the Dodgers. Two things is watching the game yesterday. Freddie

970
00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:05,920
Speaker 3: Freeman's day to day, so he's out right now. He

971
00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:09,520
Speaker 3: tweaked the surgically repaired ankle in a very baseball way

972
00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:11,120
Speaker 3: entering the shower.

973
00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:15,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's you know. I mean, even if you have

974
00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:18,560
Speaker 4: flip flops sometimes I I don't know exactly what their

975
00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:23,479
Speaker 4: shower looks like, but it can be slippery. I would

976
00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:25,520
Speaker 4: like to hear a little bit more about that. I mean,

977
00:48:25,840 --> 00:48:29,040
Speaker 4: not the glory of details. But how that happened that,

978
00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:31,600
Speaker 4: that's just that's a tough one, man. I feel bad.

979
00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:34,480
Speaker 4: That's that's a really bad one there. Yeah, that's unfortunate.

980
00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:37,600
Speaker 3: And it was that at the with the Dodgers at

981
00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:39,920
Speaker 3: the clubhouse or is that at home? I mean, if

982
00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:42,440
Speaker 3: it's at home, krats we got we gotta maybe switch

983
00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:45,400
Speaker 3: it up. If it's in the clubhouse, then I know

984
00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:47,719
Speaker 3: you gotta put those those boards down that make it

985
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:50,720
Speaker 3: less slippery. Did you guys ever slip in the shower

986
00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:51,360
Speaker 3: in the clubhouse?

987
00:48:52,560 --> 00:48:54,960
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you should see. You should see my shower shoes.

988
00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:57,480
Speaker 1: I still have them them John's were them Johns were

989
00:48:57,520 --> 00:49:00,000
Speaker 1: slippery on the bottom, Yeah, Todd, I still have them.

990
00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:03,080
Speaker 1: Read the book one time, Okay, read the book one time.

991
00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:06,200
Speaker 1: A lot of danger in the show. I'm just saying,

992
00:49:06,719 --> 00:49:09,480
Speaker 1: just saying, even on April Fool's Day, a lot of danger.

993
00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:14,600
Speaker 3: And then lastly, Mookie Betts already put I think almost

994
00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:19,120
Speaker 3: ten pounds back on wants to do another ten. So

995
00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:21,720
Speaker 3: chef's plural is what I learned when I was watching

996
00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:25,719
Speaker 3: the game yesterday. He's got multiple personal chefs and they're

997
00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:28,640
Speaker 3: making them food even to eat during the games, right.

998
00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:31,440
Speaker 3: I mean, you give one of the most competitive talented

999
00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:33,680
Speaker 3: guys in the world at basically everything a task and

1000
00:49:33,719 --> 00:49:36,960
Speaker 3: he's like, cool, I'm gonna hit homers and have full

1001
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:38,200
Speaker 3: meals during the game.

1003
00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:42,320
Speaker 2: the game.

1004
00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:45,320
Speaker 1: I mean, my guy might be sucking down some apple

1005
00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:49,720
Speaker 1: sauce packets or something. Look like, Mookie's not movies. Mookie

1006
00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:51,399
