44
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 1: like a couple of weeks in the off season we

45
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 1: talked baseball. The Winter Meetings are now over. If there's

46
00:02:58,240 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 1: anything good, we'll talk about it.

47
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 2: But the Wintermings did wrap up at a Mickey Mouse

00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 2: resort where they give out NBA championships there in the

49
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 2: Greater Orlando area, and the great Polar Bear migration is underwey.

50
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 2: If you had pin Alonzo going back to the Mets,

51
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 2: you're a loser. If you have not heard, possibly not

52
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,640
Speaker 2: pin Alonzo, who drove from Tampa over to Orlando on

53
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 2: I four to try to seduce with.

54
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 1: His hypnotic skills a big money offer. It worked. It worked.

55
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 2: He's so charming, He's Prince Charming, pied Alonzo, and he

56
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 2: talked the socks off Baltimore. The Orioles agreed to pay

57
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 2: ped Alonzo one hundred and fifty five million dollars after taxes.

58
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 1: That's about twelve bucks, but still it's.

59
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 2: A lot of money and a five year contract for Alonzo,

60
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 2: affectionately known as the Polar Bear. He joins the last

61
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 2: place team, bringing up the rear the Caboose of the

62
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 2: American Leagueese at least last season, Alonzo, who was on

63
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 2: a one year make good contract after threatening to leave

64
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 2: the Mets a year ago. He went out hit thirty

65
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 2: eight dingers, one hundred and twenty six runs batted in

66
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 2: It's big bounce back year. He bet on himself and

67
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 2: the Mets thought, well, that's a good bet.

68
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 1: We're not paying you. Get out of here, you loser.

69
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,239
Speaker 2: So thirty one years old, just had a birthday on Sunday.

70
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 2: Happy birthday.

71
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 1: Actually, we don't do shout outs. That's mentioned.

72
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 2: That's a mention to mention, So happy birthday to pen Alonzo.

73
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 2: On to mention on Sunday, the all time New York

74
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 2: Mets franchise home run king. As I said, turn out

75
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 2: the lads, the parties over. I earned All Star honors

76
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 2: five times in each of the last four years.

77
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 1: So Pete Alonso leaving as a fan favorite for the Mets,

78
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:50,479
Speaker 1: and now with of course any league play.

79
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 2: We've been around for a number of years that he

80
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:55,840
Speaker 2: will be back every other year. He will play at

81
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:57,840
Speaker 2: City Field and play the Yankees of course a couple

82
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 2: times a year in the New York market. So that

83
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 2: is a good jumping off point. Let us discuss better

84
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 2: story is in the losing locker room. So that is

85
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 2: where we're going to start in this case, the losing

86
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 2: front office. So the question what does Pete Alonzo's departure

87
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:16,159
Speaker 2: tell you about the New York Mets and their culture?

88
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 2: So my views on this, I've got lemonade stand, googly eyes,

89
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:27,559
Speaker 2: and beach front condo, and we'll combine all of these

90
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 2: things together and we're going to make some French onion soup,

91
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,479
Speaker 2: which is one of the great soups. I'm not a

92
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,840
Speaker 2: big soup guy. Every once in a while I'll go

93
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 2: for some nice soup and.

94
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,040
Speaker 1: A French onion amazing.

95
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 2: I don't know where your favorite Let me know where

96
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 2: your favorite French onion place is, because I'm looking for

97
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:45,720
Speaker 2: a good French onion place and I.

98
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 1: Do travel, so all right.

99
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 2: First of all, so to answer the question what does

100
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 2: Peter Alonzo's departure tell you about the Mets culture? This

101
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:57,839
Speaker 2: is the Mets full cultural colonoscopy.

102
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:01,240
Speaker 1: For the Mets. The Mets culture is getting a colonoscary.

103
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 2: This is proof that something is rotten to the core

104
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,839
Speaker 2: in Flushing. What a perfect name for a baseball team

105
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 2: to play in a town called Flushing. So the Mets

106
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 2: fans right now, many of them are sitting shiva for

107
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 2: Pete Alonzo and his departure. This is a two by

108
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:25,480
Speaker 2: four right to the forehead for the New York Mets. Now,

109
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,359
Speaker 2: we had heard whispers that this was gonna happen. It

110
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 2: wasn't a total shock that Alonzo was leaving. He clearly

111
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,120
Speaker 2: was desperate to leave the Mets. He didn't have any

112
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,599
Speaker 2: offer from the Mets because he went to the winter meetings.

113
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 2: He didn't have any offer that really convinced him to

114
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 2: go somewhere, Otherwise he wouldn't have gone to the Winter meeting.

115
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 2: So this came together in the last couple of days,

116
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:51,320
Speaker 2: and the whispers around the Mets were fractured. Clubhouse clicks,

117
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 2: side eye stairs, all the normal gunk in a fractured

118
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 2: And so this off season, a couple of moves that

119
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 2: have happened this week with Met free agentsy is confirmation

120
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 2: Because if you like Steve Cohen, mister twenty three billion

121
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 2: dollar net worth hedge fund, Wall Street high roller, mister

122
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 2: money is no object.

123
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 1: I'm gonna make the Mets great.

124
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 2: I'm gonna get to the World Series in this number,

125
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 2: he just let a homegrown fan favorite walk without even

126
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 2: making an offer. The tabloids are telling us that the

127
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 2: Mets did not even make an offer to Pete A. Lonzo,

128
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 2: not even a token offer, no offer.

129
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 1: Now, if that.

130
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 2: Is true, and we don't know, we're not there, it's

131
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 2: all speculations. That is, that's a big city team in

132
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 2: the Big Apple running a little league lemonade stand. And

133
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 2: don't ignore the subtext. Also because Edwin Diaz also said later, skater,

134
00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 2: I'm out of here, asta pasta, and he left. He

135
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 2: he went to the Dodgers. So you got Edwin Diez,

136
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 2: the greatest closer in Mets history, who's now with the Dodgers,

137
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 2: Pete Alonzo, the all time home run hitter in Mets history,

138
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 2: who is now with the Baltimore Orioles. And it feels,

139
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 2: based on a minutes long deliberation of the available information,

140
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 2: I'm gonna put my psychologist hat on here as a shrink.

141
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 1: It seems that the.

142
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 2: New York Mets, what they're doing here is cow towing

143
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 2: to Juan Soto. They're clearing out anyone who did not

144
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:36,320
Speaker 2: kiss his toukis kiss the ring of the New face

145
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 2: of the franchise, right, Juan Soto strolling in.

146
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:40,320
Speaker 1: There, and Peter A. Lonzo.

147
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 2: I've been with the Mets longer than you. I'm mister

148
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 2: Met and Edwin did come on now. And so the

149
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:51,320
Speaker 2: old guard, the old guard New York Mets got getting

150
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 2: chopped away like dead wood. Also a trade the Mets

151
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,199
Speaker 2: made with the Rangers, another longtime fan favorite.

152
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,200
Speaker 1: Met was traded away. So that's three.

153
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 2: It's a two pillars, and like a partial pillar of

154
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,680
Speaker 2: the Mets that have been sent out of town. It's

155
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 2: a Benny the Butcher style. Benny the Butcher styles where

156
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:16,840
Speaker 2: that is. And so now you've got this giant chasm

157
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,960
Speaker 2: the size of city field for the Mets. They've got

158
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:22,880
Speaker 2: to get a you know, they did sign Devin Williams,

159
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 2: but he sucks, and they've got to get some more

160
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 2: bullpen help. They need more pitching, and they obviously have

161
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 2: to replace Pete Alonzo. And among the early names being floated,

162
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:34,959
Speaker 2: the Cardinals.

163
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 1: Lars Nootbar, and yeah, it's a good name.

164
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,119
Speaker 2: I would rather have a Watcher mccallad or a three Musketeers,

165
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 2: or a Snickers Bar or a butter Finger. The Cardinals

166
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,679
Speaker 2: Lars nootbar. The Mets need a splash. I don't think

167
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 2: they need a candy bar. That's the word on the street.

168
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 1: Now.

169
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:56,680
Speaker 2: Secondly to the Baltimore side of things, the question on

170
00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 2: the Orioles, how much better does pen Alonzo make the Orioles?

171
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,440
Speaker 1: So the O's did not just add the polar Bear, right,

172
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 1: it's at the polar Bear.

173
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 2: They added a turbo boost to a lineup that And

174
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 2: I didn't watch every Oriols game, obviously, why would I?

175
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not a total loser, but I did

176
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:18,320
Speaker 1: see a fair amount.

177
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,640
Speaker 2: I love those early games, you know, I do the

178
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:22,680
Speaker 2: show from LA Those games start at four o'clock. I

179
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 2: love watching those games early on and watch the fair

180
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,920
Speaker 2: amount of Orioles Yankees games and Red Sox games there.

181
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:32,320
Speaker 2: And you look at the Orioles last season and that lineup,

182
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 2: it looked like they were surviving on celery and optimism.

183
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:40,200
Speaker 2: There wasn't a lot there, So how much better do

184
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 2: they get? Climb a couple of rungs on the baseball ladder,

185
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 2: a couple of rungs, but maybe they even sneak into

186
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 2: the balcony. You can climb up the side like Spider Man.

187
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 2: Spider Man, Spider Man. Now the Malard report card. I'm

188
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:57,559
Speaker 2: gonna hand the Orioles a bet on the malt Of

189
00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 2: report card because they paid retail, they paid the full amount,

190
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:03,840
Speaker 2: they didn't get a discount and all that stuff.

191
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 1: And Alonzo.

192
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 2: I'm gonna give Peede Alonzo on the Mallow report card

193
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:12,080
Speaker 2: an a plus because he used some skullduggery to bamboozle

194
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 2: his way to Baltimore. He went to the Winter Minis.

195
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 2: He didn't have this offer. He wouldn't have gone to

196
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 2: the Winter Mintings if he had this offer. He was

197
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 2: able to get some FaceTime and like the snake Charmer

198
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 2: we said he would be and convince the Oriols to give.

199
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 1: Him more money and more years and all that stuff.

200
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,079
Speaker 1: And so that's what he got. So I give Alonzo

201
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 1: an a plus. He walks into Camden Yards.

202
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 2: Like a guy who just upgraded from a studio apartment

203
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 2: to a beachfront condo.

204
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:41,079
Speaker 1: He said, well, what are you talking about? The Metro

205
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 1: better than the Orioles.

206
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,560
Speaker 2: Well, city Field though, when you do the side by side,

207
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,600
Speaker 2: and my guy sports with Coleman's already been sending me

208
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:53,320
Speaker 2: some propaganda that the home run rate from city Field,

209
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 2: which is like a refrigerated warehouse. To Camden Yards is

210
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 2: like it's a pinball machine there where baseballs go to

211
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 2: a enlightenment. And so Alonzo, if he just has the

212
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 2: same year head last year we hit seven more home runs,

213
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 2: had forty five home runs. Now, let's not let's not

214
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 2: forget the will the beast in the room, and the

215
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,959
Speaker 2: fact that Alonzo is thirty one years old and he's

216
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,640
Speaker 2: entering the part of his baseball the cycle of life

217
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 2: in baseball, the career arc where generally the production goes down.

218
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,319
Speaker 2: Outside of the steroid era, the production goes down. And

219
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,679
Speaker 2: yet despite that, for the short terms, you've got the

220
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 2: micro and the macro. The micro things are looking pretty

221
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 2: good for Baltimore. The macro, well, we'll worry about that

222
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 2: when we get there. The computer models, the old Solace machines,

223
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 2: say that Pete Alonso by himself is worth three to

224
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:44,560
Speaker 2: five wins.

225
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 1: That's it.

226
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 2: So you've just added five more wins to your total. Congratulations,

227
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 2: that's what they say. However, if you look at the

228
00:12:54,440 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 2: trickle down on all this, Alonzo protects Gunner Henderson in as.

229
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,840
Speaker 1: The he'd be the cleanup hitter. Pet Alnzo in my

230
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,959
Speaker 1: Orioles lineup Adlee Rushman as well.

231
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 2: He freeze Rushman, gives the whole lineup kind of a

232
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:17,079
Speaker 2: chiro practic adjustment in Baltimore. And so does he make

233
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,960
Speaker 2: them a ninety five win team? Again, Well, they could,

234
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 2: he could.

235
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:21,680
Speaker 1: Of course.

236
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:25,080
Speaker 2: Could's a weasel word that executives use before they raise

237
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,760
Speaker 2: syst in ticket prices. And that's really what this move

238
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 2: is more about than anything. Yeah, Alonso makes the Orioles

239
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:35,200
Speaker 2: three or five games better. It's the battle of perceptions.

240
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 2: That's the big battle. It's a pr move. You gotta

241
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,679
Speaker 2: sell tickets. Those tickets don't sell themselves. You gotta get

242
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 2: ratings on television to make advertisers happy. And so it's

243
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 2: a literal power move for the Baltimore Orioles.

244
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,760
Speaker 1: They're telling their fan base like, hey, you know, we're trying.

245
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 1: We're alive.

246
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 2: We suck last year, but we're punching. We're punching. We're

247
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:58,560
Speaker 2: not doing load management. We're not tanking any That's all right.

248
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 1: Final thought. Now, the buzz from the Winter meetings as.

249
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 2: They came to an end on Wednesday at a Mickey

250
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 2: Mouse resort in Orlando or the Orlando area, was that

251
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 2: Ace Tarik schoolb much to the chagrin of legally blind

252
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:18,200
Speaker 2: Christopher in London, a former Michigander who's an ex pat

253
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 2: now living in London. But the buzz at the winter

254
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 2: meetings is that Tarik school Ball was dangled on a

255
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 2: fishing rod to the other twenty nine MLB teams. Of course,

256
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:31,920
Speaker 2: the members of the cartel. There's only about seven, is

257
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,480
Speaker 2: that right? Seven teams that would even bother bidding on

258
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:39,080
Speaker 2: a guy like Tarik schoolbel the Big Whales.

259
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 1: That's about it.

260
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 2: Like Yankees, Mets, Red Sox, Dodgers that's four cubs, that's five.

261
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:51,320
Speaker 2: Fill the Giants in there, that's six, and then seven

262
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 2: would be who seven.

263
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 1: Would be like the Rangers. Maybe maybe the Rangers.

264
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 2: Oh way, listen, they're circling the boat like Hungary Shark's question.

265
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:09,480
Speaker 2: Will the Detroit Tigers really trade to Reek schoolble between

266
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 2: now and opening day in the spring of twenty twenty six?

267
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 2: So the Mallard Sportsbook odds on the Tigers trading to

268
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 2: Reek School, Well, I'm gonna set the odds on this

269
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 2: at plus nine hundred. That is a ten percent chance,

270
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 2: which means it's not probable. However, it's certainly not absolutely impossible.

271
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:37,520
Speaker 1: Right, it's not probable.

272
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 2: It's it's possible, but not you know, it's somewhere in

273
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 2: that kind of gray area. I'm saying this the right way.

274
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:46,960
Speaker 2: But here's why, because Detroit did not just listen. If

275
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:49,720
Speaker 2: the whispers are correct, they actually engaged.

276
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 1: They played foot seat, they flirted it. They made googly

277
00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 1: eyes at the Dodgers, and they got all the they

278
00:15:57,560 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 1: got a little chubby.

279
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 2: They're looking at all the minor league players that the

280
00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:04,040
Speaker 2: Dodgers could send to them. It's a nice sampler plate

281
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:06,360
Speaker 2: of players, most of them that will not live up

282
00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 2: to expectations that you could get. And so they took

283
00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 2: the car for a test drive. Well, they weren't just

284
00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 2: window shopping the Tigers. They took the car for a

285
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:17,280
Speaker 2: test drive, and they smelled the carpet and the leather

286
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 2: and all that stuff, and they kind of felt how

287
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 2: the steering wheel feels.

288
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 1: And all that.

289
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 2: And so now there are better odds that Tarik Scooble

290
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,880
Speaker 2: gets Dell then gets extended.

291
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 1: The malarods on the.

292
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 2: Detroit Tigers ace of aces getting an extension that's at

293
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 2: plus forty five hundred.

294
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 1: That is a two percent chance.

295
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 2: That is a two percent chance, which is basically the

296
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 2: same probability as me becoming the next president of FIFA.

297
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:49,200
Speaker 2: I'm pretty confident that people at FIFA don't know who

298
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 2: I am and are certainly not going to call me.

299
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 2: But Scuba wants four hundred million. Of course I also

300
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 2: want four hundred million. I'd like to let the world

301
00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 2: know that the honorable person with the gas bag over

302
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:02,480
Speaker 2: here like the four hundred million. Now, Scoopball's a chance

303
00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 2: to get it. It's a generational amount of money. He's

304
00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 2: a generational pitcher. Allegedly that would be something. As good

305
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:16,080
Speaker 2: as he is, I still would not go down that road.

306
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:19,440
Speaker 2: I wouldn't do it. It's a guy that works one

307
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:22,119
Speaker 2: day a week, thirty one starts a years the max,

308
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 2: so thirty.

309
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:27,359
Speaker 1: One games and four hundred million. I don't know how

310
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 1: much that would be per year. The math ain't mathing

311
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:32,800
Speaker 1: on that. Listen.

312

489
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 9: he's a three thirded sagittariuts. I really hate to see

490
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 9: him go. He's really playful and fun. And you might

491
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:39,760
Speaker 9: remember he alluded to mercury retrograde and talked about his

492
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,879
Speaker 9: batting average going up when mercury came out of retrograde.

493
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 9: I just really enjoyed his personality. And you know that

494
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:53,640
Speaker 9: said right now the Sons and Sagittarius, Venus and Mercury Mars.

495
00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:58,160
Speaker 9: So he just got his boos from the universe. Financially, energetically,

496
00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:02,680
Speaker 9: you know, have some endings and new beginnings. But between

497
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:07,240
Speaker 9: him as a Diaz Nemo moved on. I mean, the

498
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:11,280
Speaker 9: met trans are really struggling right now. But Pe for

499
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:16,119
Speaker 9: me personally, you know, was really the personality of the team.

500
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,439
Speaker 9: And I'm just really sorry to see him go. But

501
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 9: you know, one hundred and fifty five million, you know,

502
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:25,720
Speaker 9: I understand where he's coming from, but he really was

503
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:27,639
Speaker 9: the heart and soul of the team.

504
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:31,720
Speaker 2: And I don't know, well, it's still he's still a

505
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:34,040
Speaker 2: right you watch you just have to watch Orioles games now,

506
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:36,119
Speaker 2: you have to see what he's doing in Baltimore and.

507
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:39,560
Speaker 9: Watch the old But you know, and I think I'll

508
00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 9: play the matter. We were talking about that showdown at

509
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:45,960
Speaker 9: some point. But it's really, you know, one of those

510
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:49,960
Speaker 9: things where you just pet along. Yeah, one hundred and

511
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:53,320
Speaker 9: fifty five million dens to five years, and it's just

512
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 9: one of those things. He was just such a part

513
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:59,240
Speaker 9: of the part of the team and really playful and

514
00:28:59,280 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 9: so on.

515
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:03,080
Speaker 1: I mean, oh, this is the bets.

516
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,040
Speaker 2: The Mets better figure out how to win, because if

517
00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:07,480
Speaker 2: they don't win, and these guys are playing well for

518
00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:10,080
Speaker 2: the Dodgers and the Orioles, they'll never hear.

519
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:12,880
Speaker 1: The end of it. They're gonna be just roasted.

520
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 9: Good point. Yeah, New York fans, man, they're not. That's

521
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 9: a good point you just made.

522
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, exact exactly so. And it's not like they don't

523
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:24,160
Speaker 1: have the money. If it'd be one thing, if they

524
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:25,960
Speaker 1: didn't have the money, he'd be like, Okay.

525
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:27,840
Speaker 2: They don't have the money whatever, You're fine. But they

526
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:30,720
Speaker 2: got one of the richest owners in all of sports.

527
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:35,600
Speaker 2: This guy, this guy so loaded. My god, he goes

528
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:38,360
Speaker 2: in the bathroom, he makes ten million dollars. This guy's

529
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:38,800
Speaker 2: so rich.

530
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,720
Speaker 9: So oh, uncle Steve, they call.

531
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:45,560
Speaker 1: Him, you know, as a Mets fan, the whole thing.

532
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 10: That's right.

533
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 9: So I don't know, you know, there's a lot of

534
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 9: explaining to do here, and you know, David sterns well, I.

535
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:56,760
Speaker 2: Actually, by the way, I just looked at the schedule

536
00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,040
Speaker 2: because that's what we do here, the Baltimore Orioles.

537
00:29:59,080 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 1: Check this out.

538
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:03,680
Speaker 2: Now that the Orioles do play at City Field in

539
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 2: twenty twenty six in September, so it's late in the season.

540
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:13,800
Speaker 2: September fourteenth, fifteenth, and sixteenth Mets and they host the

541
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 2: Orioles at Cityfield, So that'll be a big series.

542
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 9: Right before my Virgo birthday. And that should be interesting

543
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:25,160
Speaker 9: because September, that's from you know, teams are heading towards

544
00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 9: the playoffs or not.

545
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,320
Speaker 1: So yeah, and that there's only after that.

546
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:33,760
Speaker 2: The Orioles will only have nine games left after that series,

547
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 2: so that's late.

548
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:36,680
Speaker 1: That's real late in the baseball season for sure.

549
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:40,200
Speaker 2: So either pen Alonzo could be spoiler or the Mets

550
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 2: can spoil him and the Orioles.

551
00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 9: So yeah, no, that's that's a good way to put

552
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 9: in there. I heard you allude to cosmic energy earlier

553
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:48,640
Speaker 9: in the show.

554
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:52,200
