10
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:26,520

00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 2: I grew up in the room where we built the

19
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 2: Metstup podcast, and I was still living with my parents.

20

47
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,919
Speaker 2: Absolutely, regular season episodes make me feel really warm inside.

48
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 2: I'm really excited to talk about it. Everyone excited to

49
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 2: hear about it on Twitter too. And this was just

50
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 2: a great series for the Mets just looking at it overall.

51
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 2: Took three or four from the Marlins. Very important to

52
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 2: take that to win a series against team to be

53
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 2: at the bottom of your own division, even though divisional

54
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 2: stuff means less now because we're playing them less. But yeah, yeah, yeah,

55
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 2: they no big deal. Really happy to beat a team

56
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:08,680
Speaker 2: that we know we're better than.

57
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think the word we use for the Marlins

58
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: in the preview was pesky. They were pesky. They definitely

59
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 1: were pesky. But at the end of the day, you

60
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 1: see they have a real inability to score runs, and

61
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 1: it's just simply because there's just not a lot of

62
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 1: power coming into that lineup and there's just not a

63
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 1: lot of particularly that great hitters either. Honestly, let's be honest,

64
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 1: the lineup's not that great.

65
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, and we said that something big this series would

66
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 2: be being able to take advantage of the Marlins and

67
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 2: not a good bullpen, and the team did.

68
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:32,359
Speaker 1: That as a whole as well.

69
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 2: And super cool that we're getting the Marlins for these

70
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,679
Speaker 2: seven games the beginning of the season, theoretically before Jazz

71
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 2: Chisholm learns how to play center field because he didn't

72
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 2: know what he was doing.

73
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:42,919
Speaker 1: I'm so glad you brought that up. I love Jazz Chism.

74
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 1: He's one of the coolest young players in the game.

75
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: He's extremely talented. This is not a slight at him.

76
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: This is more a slight than Marlins, because in what

77
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,919
Speaker 1: planet did they think that putting a guy who had

78
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,959
Speaker 1: never played center field, which is arguably the hardest position

79
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 1: to play in baseball. We saw Brandon Iimo, who is

80
00:02:57,880 --> 00:02:59,919
Speaker 1: a lifetime outfielder, the time that it took for him

81
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 1: to get to where he's at now. There are some

82
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:03,640
Speaker 1: guys who played it their entire life and still stink

83
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 1: aet it. Just never played it, and he couldn't look

84
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 1: worse out there. Again, not to really dump on Jazz here,

85
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: he's learning new positions. Nothing on him, but my god,

86
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 1: I mean, that's one of the craziest decisions I've ever seen,

87
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:19,520
Speaker 1: because he made I mean, easy plays look unbelievably difficult.

88
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 1: He can get to more balls than us, me and

89
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 1: you in terms of range, just because he's unbelievably fast.

90
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 1: But I'm confident we could catch more balls than him

91
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,519
Speaker 1: in center field. It's like his hands don't work out there.

92
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:30,919
Speaker 2: No, it was also more than that. It was angular

93
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 2: like he just hasn't played very much outfields. He doesn't

94
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 2: exactly have the sense of knowing exactly where the ball

95
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 2: is going yet and how to get there. I'm sure

96
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 2: once the savant stat's populated over this next couple of days,

97
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 2: we'll see just his olm's path to ball time being

98
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 2: one of the worst entire league because he's just a

99
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 2: guy who's not outfielders right now right now is infielder're

100
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 2: trying to play the outfield. I don't have any doubt

101
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 2: that eventually he'll get there, maybe even this season, because.

102
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 1: He's such a freak.

103
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 2: But really cool that we were able to take advantage

104
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 2: of the first four games he played out there, getting

105
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 2: to turn some singles to doubles, doubles of triples and

106
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 2: just get extra runs in places that we could. No,

107
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 2: it's great too, especially like in Game one, when you

108
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 2: have Max Scherzer on the mound who is absolutely dealing

109
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 2: up until that last inning.

110
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 1: Getting those runs is nice. It gives us a nice league,

111
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 1: gives us a nice cushion. And I mean, he was

112
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: disgusting through those first four innings. I believe he faced

113
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 1: the minimum, and up until what it was the sixth inning,

114
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 1: he didn't really even find himself in any sort of trouble.

115
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,040
Speaker 2: No, yeah, you're right, Max, surely they did face the

116
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 2: minimum through four innings. No Marlin reached second base until

117
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 2: the sixth inning, two, which is pretty cool. And then

118
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 2: they had that little rally capped off by the Garret

119
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 2: Cooper home run. Who's and the team that's full of

120
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 2: Mets killers. He's an habitual Mets killer, even a guy

121
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 2: who like hitting the mill out the order is sneaky.

122
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:33,840
Speaker 2: Looks like he could put himself in a position for

123
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 2: a good year. He's always been a good hitter, just

124
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 2: can't really stay healthy and never had a good enough

125
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,719
Speaker 2: glove to get in near a lineup until right now.

126
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,679
Speaker 2: But overall, Max six innings, six strikeouts, two walks, three earns,

127
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 2: four hits, wasn't like he was super sharp. Early that

128
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,039
Speaker 2: six inning got away from him against the left team

129
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,480
Speaker 2: like Garret Cooper and stepped up with long balls we

130
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 2: know for Max Cherzer, but you gotta say it was

131
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 2: a good start overall for mad Max.

132
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, watching the game, noticing what was going on, Like

133
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:57,840
Speaker 1: the first few innings, he was sharp. That fastball, he's

134
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 1: getting the swings and misses. A slider was money. Throw

135
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 1: in a couple curve balls that made the Marlins Hities

136
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 1: look like, oh my god, I didn't know that you

137
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,839
Speaker 1: were gonna throw this. A little bit later in the game,

138
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:07,799
Speaker 1: like you said, just started to get hit. The slider

139
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 1: got a little bit more flat. But that's gonna happen

140
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: early in the season, as we know. Sures this is

141
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,719
Speaker 1: this is a long season, and have a start like

142
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 1: that game one really important for the Mets, especially you.

143
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 2: Know with the news that happened a little bit earlier

144
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 2: in the day too. Yeah, for sure, it was a

145
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 2: kind of a blow to all the Mets fans. On

146
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 2: Thursday afternoon, we found out Justin Verland would start the

147
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 2: season on the IL with an injury that the name

148
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,840
Speaker 2: of it definitely is worse than it is because the

149
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:32,919
Speaker 2: part of the shoulder that got hurt. Was the terrorist major,

150
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 2: But it's a minor strain of the terrorist major, so

151
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 2: you gotta listen to the minor, ignore the major. But

152
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 2: he was still throwing over the weekend. Everything looks minor.

153
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 2: Just gotta roll with it. Seems like he'll be back soon.

154
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 2: He seemed very like Contrite when he was talking about it.

155
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 2: He seemed like more frustrated than upset, which I thought

156
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 2: was kind of a good thing to hear as a

157
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 2: fan coming through. But again, good to see Max deal

158
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 2: and us play overall a good game on opening day

159
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:57,600
Speaker 2: with that, especially Mets top of the order really showed up.

160
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:01,600
Speaker 2: Nimo Martin, Francisco lindork I eight hard hit balls. Francisco

161
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 2: Lindor drove in the first run in the season with

162
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 2: sacrifice fly in a well struck shot, and then brand

163
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,840
Speaker 2: Nemo broke the tie in the top of the seventh

164
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:09,599
Speaker 2: after Max had given up the lead in the bottom

165
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 2: of the sixth with a two run doubles were really

166
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,839
Speaker 2: good to see our table sethers Eric Nyders have a

167
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:14,920
Speaker 2: good game to start the season.

168
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, just in general starting the year. Sarly

169
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 1: Martes looks so good, so good at the top of

170
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:21,919
Speaker 1: the order, and for a guy who you know, didn't

171
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 1: necessarily get as much spring training in as we had hoped,

172
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:26,040
Speaker 1: just because he was coming back from the double groin

173
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,599
Speaker 1: surgery or whatever was going on with him in the offseason.

174
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 1: Him looking good, Nimo looking good, Lindor obviously still swinging

175
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,359
Speaker 1: the bat well. Maybe like the average number is as

176
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 1: high as you'd like, but it's a four game sample,

177
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 1: so we know that's like absolutely nonsense. But at the

178
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 1: end of the day, like those guys being able to

179
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 1: get on base like they had hit the ball hard

180
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:43,720
Speaker 1: to set up for a guy like Pete almso in

181
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 1: the middle of this order is so incredibly important. We

182
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 1: talked about it. I mean, we have a meme completely

183
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 1: waiting and ready in the in the wings for whenever,

184
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 1: like Mets fans inevitably get like a little upset about

185
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 1: the offense after one game, but the lineup is good,

186
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 1: they're gonna score runs. And we saw at all series

187
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: long outside of the one game.

188
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 2: And we'll talk about this when we do. Like the

189
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 2: full we have a lot of stats like down to

190
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 2: the bottom the outliner. Just don't want to scroll right

191
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 2: now because I don't want to mess up the flow.

192
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 2: But Mets were taking great at bats all series. The

193
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 2: Mets weren't striking out all series, just making the Marlins

194
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 2: pitch and pitch and pitch. By the end of the series,

195
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 2: we were deep into their bullpen. Wiscar Brazobahn look was

196
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 2: old news by then, and it was just that that's

197
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 2: what this team does. They just get you and get

198
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 2: you and get you. And I feel like a lot

199
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,760
Speaker 2: of Mets fans forgot how we well we grind it

200
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 2: through last season, just getting after all these pitchers day

201
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 2: after day.

202
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 1: You could literally see it on Sandal and Alcantro's face.

203
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 1: It was like, at some points, like can these guys

204
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 1: just like get out? Can they just like go down one, two, three?

205
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 1: Like I'm having to throw a lot of pitches every

206
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 1: at bat and you can see it gets frustrating, and

207
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: especially with the pitchclock. I don't know there was another

208
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 1: team that was talking about this, might have even been

209
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 1: the Marlins. But how now, like in previous sittings, you could,

210
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 1: you could take your time, you could walk around the mound,

211
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 1: you could kind of like mentally get over maybe some

212
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 1: of like the frustrating stuff that a team like the

213
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 1: Mets has been doing, but with the pitchclock now you

214
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 1: just have to keep throwing and stuff can kind of snowball.

215
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 1: And it felt like that was a little bit with

216
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 1: Sandil Contra in this game, because he a moment to breathe,

217
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 1: he had to just keep pitching, and at some point

218
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 1: the Mets got to him. Definitely a long endings long end.

219
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 1: I thought that was gonna happen game.

220
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 2: Too with Lazaros, looked like he totally ran out of

221
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 2: I guess the third time through two. We'll get to

222
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 2: that in a second. But I kind of like you're

223
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 2: talking about Sandal contract because if you remember, there was

224
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 2: a game last year the first time we faced them

225
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 2: all year might have been the first time we faced

226
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 2: the Marlins, which happened to be in June or late May,

227
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 2: and it was Sunday afternoon, which is so funny that

228
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 2: this year we're gonna we're gonna get rid of all

229
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 2: the Marlins games the second week of April. But Sandy

230
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 2: threw like an eighth inning gem against the Mets in

231
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 2: the Sunday afternoon, and we were like, Wow, we're gonna

232
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 2: We're gonna face this guy so much, we're gonna crush him.

233
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 2: Since that game. The Mets have won three out of

234
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,560
Speaker 2: four games against Sandy. They made him throw ninety six

235
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 2: pitches in less than six innings in this game, and

236
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 2: we have eleven earned runs in those last four games

237
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 2: and only twenty four and two thirds inning against Sandy.

238
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 2: That's four ERA. This guy's ERA was barely two all

239
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 2: season last year. So it seems like after that one

240
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 2: game that got to him something that the Mets are doing.

241
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:51,319
Speaker 2: The way we take our bats, the way you five

242
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 2: pitches off, the way we don't really let him be

243
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 2: in control on the mound, we're able to do something

244
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:57,439
Speaker 2: the rest of league can't do, the Sandal contra. And

245
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 2: it's pretty awesome that the best pitcher, kind of the

246
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:03,120
Speaker 2: best pitcher, one of the best pitchers now in our team,

247
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:06,199
Speaker 2: in our division. This vision so stacked with pitching, it's

248
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 2: kind of hard to pick who's the best. Sandy is great,

249
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 2: But the fact that we can get after another team's

250
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:12,719
Speaker 2: ace like that we play more often than the other

251
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,840
Speaker 2: teams in the league is really comforting and cool, So comforting,

252
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 2: so comforting because you look at the schedule and you

253
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:18,719
Speaker 2: see the Marlins, you should beat them, but then you

254
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 2: see Sandy and you're like, oh, that's a tough game.

255
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 1: Still is tough. I'm not gonna say that we own

256
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 1: Sandy al Contra because that would be nonsense, That'd be insane.

257
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 1: We're bragging about forcing a four era in twenty five.

258
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 1: We make them look human, That's what it is. Sandy

259
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:32,320
Speaker 1: al Condra looks like a human against the Mets, which

260
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,440
Speaker 1: I will take that. I just I want more humans

261
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 1: pitching against the Mets. I don't want any more of

262
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 1: these robots like Sandy. But another really big thing in

263
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 1: this game too, how how nice and easy was it

264
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 1: with the bullpen? How awesome was it to see Drew flow,

265
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 1: Drew change, Drew come right into the game, shut it down?

266
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 1: How about Brooks Raley? How easy of an inning was

267
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 1: that from brooks Raley? Like, especially with the pitch clock.

268
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,559
Speaker 1: I looked up like, oh it's over, this sitting's over.

269
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 1: That was like the most stress free inning, honestly, I've

270
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 1: felt in a very long time.

271
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 2: I wish we actually had the clock time on that

272
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:04,200
Speaker 2: ending because it felt like it took three minutes. And

273
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 2: then David Robertson coming in, who looks like based on

274
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 2: the usage in opening weekend, it seems like he is

275
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 2: probably something that's gonna resemble the closer of this team,

276
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 2: something like we predict this, something like everyone kind of

277
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 2: knows what was happening beforehand.

278
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:17,959
Speaker 1: It does look like him.

279
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 2: And something else cool about Robertson and Brooks Railey at

280
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 2: the end of games while ones are left the ones variety,

281
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 2: they each look so capable against hitters of the opposite

282
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 2: hand just because of how much breaking stuff they throw,

283
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 2: and between the two of them there were almost no

284
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:35,559
Speaker 2: straight fastballs thrown cothers curveballs, sliders. That's something I think

285
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,319
Speaker 2: is kind of cool for pitchers that late in the game,

286
00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 2: because that fastball is gonna be pitched us more sceptible

287
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,200
Speaker 2: to the long ball. And we do see Drew Smith

288
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 2: throw the fastball. His fastball has that amazing hop that

289
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,319
Speaker 2: just like defies gravity. But very cool with these guys,

290
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,040
Speaker 2: we are gonna be high leverage pitchers for us have

291
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,839
Speaker 2: repertoires that are great against both sides of the plate

292
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 2: and that limit the long ball.

293
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,200
Speaker 1: No, it was it was awesome to see. We also

294
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 1: had that weird little McNeil alonzo thing in Game one

295
00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:58,720
Speaker 1: two that I feel like we should briefly talk about

296
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 1: where McNeil got called for a violation of the pitch clock,

297
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 1: got a called strike on him because Petere A Lonzo

298
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 1: didn't get back to first base quick enough. It was

299
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 1: deemed that the umpires ruled incorrectly. They're supposed to just

300
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,679
Speaker 1: basically tell Pete to hurry it up. I mean, we

301
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:14,679
Speaker 1: know the deal. Buck knows all the rules. Buck knows

302
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 1: all the rules. It's amazing that we've imagined knows the

303
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:19,599
Speaker 1: rules better than the umpires. Because Buck walked on the

304
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 1: field immediately and said you're wrong, and the Buck got

305
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 1: in the press convertience of the game. He was like,

306
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 1: you guys will see it later once E only makes ruling.

307
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 1: They were completely wrong about that. So this rule has

308
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:28,320
Speaker 1: been in existence. That was the first day has been existence.

309
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 2: It existed for a couple hours of Mets World, and

310
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 2: Buck was like, I know it's better than you.

311
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 1: You're never gonna get anything by Buck. When we spoke

312
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:35,200
Speaker 1: to him like how do you know all the rules,

313
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 1: He's like, I just like it's kind of my job,

314
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 1: Like I kind of need to know this stuff. I

315
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 1: just whatever is interesting, I'm gonna find out. And we

316
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 1: saw it happen there as well. Johnny stats. He's not

317
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 1: with us yet on the screen, but he's dropping stats

318
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 1: in the chat. He told us the Brooks really inning

319
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 1: was four minutes. That's so incredibly fast. And some more

320
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:53,440
Speaker 1: Johnny Stats stats.

321
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 2: The Mets just are like the greatest opening day team

322
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 2: in baseball history by a lot. After the win on Thursday,

323
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 2: the Mets were forty one twenty one unopening Day, and

324
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 2: that includes eight consecutive opening day losses for the franchise.

325
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,120
Speaker 2: They didn't even win opening Day until nineteen seventy. So

326
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,560
Speaker 2: the Mets are forty one and thirteen in their last

327
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 2: fifty four opening days since nineteen seventy, which is just

328
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:15,040
Speaker 2: one of the craziest stats in the world. And again,

329
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 2: this was a very necessary win. Shuerzer look good, top

330
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 2: of the other hit well, bullpen was solid. Just coming

331
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:23,960
Speaker 2: off the justin ferlanda thing because there was a couple

332
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 2: of hours where Mets fans were spiraling. I was kind

333
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 2: of lost to myself and it was just like, I

334
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 2: don't like how this feels right now.

335
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 1: But once this all happened, I was.

336
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,680
Speaker 2: Like, Okay, we're back to baseball on what's on the

337
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 2: field matters more.

338
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think there were some Mets fans hate

339
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 1: watching another game too that were pretty happy with one

340
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,200
Speaker 1: of the outcomes that happened. Maybe in the state of Texas,

341
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,000
Speaker 1: I don't know. We'll just briefly mention that, yeah, could

342
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:47,960
Speaker 1: have been hate watching. I don't know. But Game one

343
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 1: great starts of the season led into a bit of

344
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 1: what we like to call on this podcast a poop fest,

345
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 1: and came to it was we got it out early

346
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 1: last year. I think it took a while for us

347
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:58,319
Speaker 1: to technically get a poop fest. For those of you

348
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 1: who are new to the podcast, I know we sound

349
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 1: like children when we say this, but it's just kind

350
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 1: of our or politically friendly, politically correct word instead of

351
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 1: cursing on the pockets PG term PG term for when

352
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:13,920
Speaker 1: they play a bad game, because I mean, relatively speaking,

353
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 1: the offenses just didn't show up. Jesus Lozardo shoved. It's

354
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,319
Speaker 1: kind of the story of the game. Yeah he's shoved.

355
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 1: He didn't shove. He looked really good.

356
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 2: But again, we like had that opportunity to get him

357
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 2: the third time around the order, and it's just like

358
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:25,959
Speaker 2: sometimes you get the timely hits and sometimes you don't.

359
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:28,079
Speaker 2: And they I think they were flashing a stat it

360
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 2: was either about it was about Lazarre that where like

361
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 2: his batting average against with runer's corning position has oscillated

362
00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 2: from like one to fifty to three hundred to one

363
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 2: fifty in his games and during seasons of his careers,

364
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 2: like oh his Lozari was lucky, then he was unlucky,

365
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 2: then he got lucky again. So again, Sometimes those balls

366
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 2: are gonna drop on men around base, sometimes they're not.

367
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 2: This is a game we really couldn't hit in general.

368
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,600
Speaker 2: But I think the big story here is David Peterson.

369
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:50,200
Speaker 1: Our boy. Talk, that's our boy.

370
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,199
Speaker 2: We've been talking all off season about how important is

371
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 2: gonna be this team. He becomes that much more important

372
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,520
Speaker 2: with Justin Verlander on the shelf for a period of time,

373
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:58,880
Speaker 2: and as you guys know, Jose Cantana on the shelf

374
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 2: for the next few months, and this game started really

375
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 2: rocking for him. It was a very very nervous first

376
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:04,959
Speaker 2: couple of inks for Peterson. Threw the first two winnings.

377
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 2: He threw thirty eight pitches seventeen balls. He gave up

378
00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:10,400
Speaker 2: four hits and a walk a home run Jorge Hilaire,

379
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 2: and only struck out one Marlin and there were a

380
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:14,440
Speaker 2: last situations in those first two winnings where if the

381
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 2: Mess didn't make wonderful defensive plays behind him or turned

382
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 2: double plays, things could have really unraveled fast. But he

383
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,960
Speaker 2: completely settled down, He found his groove, found his mechanics,

384
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 2: kind of tinkered with his pitch micks a little bit,

385
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 2: and over the inning three, four, and five he threw

386
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 2: forty six pitches, only sixteen balls versus thirty strikes, only

387
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,520
Speaker 2: gave up four hits those three innings, four strikeouts, no

388
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 2: more walks, and nowhere in runs. And those walks are

389
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 2: a big deal because during the spring I think he

390
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:40,880
Speaker 2: only gave up one hit and walked eight bathers, and

391
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 2: this game was totally reversed.

392
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 1: Gave eight hits on walked one batter. Yeah.

393
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 2: So the fact that Peterson was able to settle in,

394
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:48,120
Speaker 2: and when just Mess saw that made him settle in

395
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 2: was the fact he only threw one four team fastball

396
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 2: over those first two winnings and then thirteen over his

397
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 2: next three innings. So we had the fourteen fast balls

398
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 2: he threw in the game, only one when he was struggling,

399
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 2: and then the rest kind of got in there. We've

400
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:00,800
Speaker 2: been talking a lot. What throw the sinker was that

401
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 2: what the pitch was, it was lots of sinkers, and

402
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 2: he did have a sinker did look good. It was

403
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,200
Speaker 2: he was riding inside on lefties and was getting that

404
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 2: backbreaking movement try in front door. It was just kind

405
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 2: of a situation where he didn't seem like he was

406
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 2: really that comfortable placing it and sometimes it caught too

407
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 2: much plate and allowed some decent contact.

408
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 1: That's how the.

409
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 2: Models were putting the ball in play a lot, and

410
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 2: he was still throwing plenty of sinkers even when he

411
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 2: made the switch. It was kind of an even ratio though,

412
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,520
Speaker 2: four seemers and sinkers, two seamers, whatever you want to

413
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 2: call them. But he did get more of those four

414
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:28,160
Speaker 2: seemers in there set up a slytherer much better, which

415
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:30,200
Speaker 2: he threw a lot, and that slather velocity held from

416
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 2: the spring and still had all the bite we saw

417
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 2: in it from last year. And he was dropping a

418
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 2: lot more curveball something else we saw notes from the spring.

419
00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 2: So overall we have to be very excited about David

420
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 2: Peterson's start. Fought through adversity, got through something that could

421
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 2: have been disaster, something that We've seen Dave Pearson struggle

422
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 2: with at times in the past where letting beginnings kind

423
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,160
Speaker 2: of get out of hand, kind of shows emotions. On

424
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 2: the mound, he was taking deep breats, he was settled,

425
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 2: he was repeating his mechanics, and very very conf very

426
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 2: very happy and confident going forward.

427
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 1: The body language used to be a big thing with Peterson.

428
00:15:58,480 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 1: He used to be like a big like you could

429
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 1: see how his star was going based on how he

430
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:03,040
Speaker 1: was standing on the mound. You didn't have to see

431
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 1: the scoreboard. Didn't see that in this game. It's gonna

432
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 1: be a long season. We definitely need him, and the

433
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 1: way that he was able to pick it up, like

434
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 1: you said, it is huge. It also really helps when

435
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 1: the defense really is so amazing behind them. The shift

436
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 1: seems like not really an issue for the Mets when

437
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 1: Lindor is making plays left and right everywhere, Jeff McNeil

438
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 1: with great range at second base. Everybody was making great

439
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 1: plays all series long. I know Marte had that weird

440
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 1: drop at one point, but like that's I don't know,

441
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 1: maybe it got caught in the lights. That's what I

442
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:28,880
Speaker 1: like to pretend it. But the defense has been so

443
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 1: good and I think it's something that baseball fans like

444
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 1: as a team, kind of take for advantage a little bit,

445
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 1: is that defense is so incredibly important and really can

446
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 1: make a difference like it did in this game, where

447
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 1: it allows David Peterson, who's maybe working through a little

448
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:45,320
Speaker 1: bit of trouble, a little adversity, like you said, to

449
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 1: feel a little bit more comfortable like, Oh, my guys

450
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 1: behind me are gonna be able to make plays.

451
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 2: I don't need to strike everybody out. I don't need

452
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 2: to be perfect and stops the snowball. When a guy

453
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 2: makes a big play behind you get a double play,

454
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 2: really erasing inning. And the other cool thing happened this

455
00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 2: game again poop fest term we've coined in this podcast.

456
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:03,040
Speaker 2: We're gonna have one poop fest, a series that's gonna happen.

457
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 2: Did something that happened a little bit last year where

458
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 2: Francisco Indoor and Plans were back to back in the

459
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:09,439
Speaker 2: oil and they're both so smart and so talented and

460
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 2: so incredible. Lindor just after that bad in the nine

461
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 2: dinnings said something to Pete and the peach just came

462
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 2: up and the home run. Yeah, so something about and

463
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,320
Speaker 2: also this was against a J Puck who Pete was

464
00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,160
Speaker 2: a college teammate with, and he mentioned after the game

465
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 2: is like I faced him a million times, like I

466
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:22,720
Speaker 2: knew exactly thrown me.

467
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 1: So that was an easy home run, which is kind

468
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:26,920
Speaker 1: of funny to say Pete crushes left handed pitching two

469
00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:30,440
Speaker 1: and like it's just it was a recipe or perfect,

470
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,399
Speaker 1: a perfect little combination or like storm, perfect storm. There

471
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,240
Speaker 1: we go. See, it wouldn't be a messed up podcast

472
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 1: if it's me for getting like common sayings. That was

473
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:38,640
Speaker 1: a big thing last year.

474
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, and the last thing about this game that the

475
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,680
Speaker 2: Marlins dropped to throw back unis, which is something they're

476
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 2: going to do on Fridays this year. And those are

477
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,280
Speaker 2: so sensational. Some of the coolest jeris in baseball, the

478
00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 2: teal hat, Oh my god.

479
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,640
Speaker 1: Are are Where would you like rank them? Where would

480
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,040
Speaker 1: you rank them? Like if you're giving like a tier list,

481
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 1: like if you're going SA B C sp in the

482
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 1: high those definitely be an S.

483
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 2: Those would be an S tier with like Mets black,

484
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:02,879
Speaker 2: those crazy royal powder blues that are so cool, And

485
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:04,560
Speaker 2: that's kind of all I can think of and also

486
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:06,119
Speaker 2: like I hate, I mean, wouldn't be an steer, probably

487
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:07,880
Speaker 2: an eight year But those old school Phillyawder Blues are.

488
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:09,960
Speaker 1: Kind of sick too. Yeah, I know, yeah, they kind

489
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:12,920
Speaker 1: of are. Marlin's Loki have some really good jerseys, except

490
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:15,200
Speaker 1: the ones that they wear every single day. Those jerseys

491
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 1: are awful. They're terrible. They need a rebrint. But like

492
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,240
Speaker 1: the sugar King ones are so sick too, did they

493
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 1: You see him a lot on the ballpark two? Yeah, no,

494
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:23,359
Speaker 1: that's I mean, it's a popular one. I would I

495
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:24,920
Speaker 1: would wear that too if I was a Marlins fan.

496
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:26,439
Speaker 1: There's not much else to be excited about with them.

497
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 1: Jazzchi hasn't met that big home run too, and did

498
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 1: the euro step and he's really cool, but he can't

499
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:33,199
Speaker 1: play center field, so yeah, yeah, yeah, we'll take that,

500
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 1: Like you said, happy to play him early in the

501
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 1: year when he does have a clue yet. Moving on

502
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,720
Speaker 1: to Game three, this was I feel like the Markana game.

503
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,040
Speaker 1: Marcana necessarily hadn't been playing that well in the first

504
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:43,680
Speaker 1: two games, a little bit up and down. It's early

505
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,320
Speaker 1: in the season, you can't really care too much. But

506
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,639
Speaker 1: Game three, Marcada really put the team on his back

507
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,160
Speaker 1: a little bit, a home run, getting on base hits,

508
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,640
Speaker 1: I mean everything that you want on Marky Cheerio's he did.

509
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,119
Speaker 2: Mets fans also pick up Markana because he's kind of

510
00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:57,399
Speaker 2: the guy who links the top of the other to

511
00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 2: the bomb of the other and people kind of look

512
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:00,639
Speaker 2: at him with the telescope. Was like that guy, and

513
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,280
Speaker 2: that's spot new. Others should be better, but Markannon was

514
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 2: like over twenty percent better than the gabbage last year.

515
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:06,800
Speaker 2: And then he has a power outburst in this game

516
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:08,680
Speaker 2: where he's a home run scorse, three runs, three hands,

517
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 2: a walk, and RBI ands like, oh yeah, Marcana pretty

518
00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 2: good and and made the big play at home playing

519
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 2: against Nick.

520
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 1: Ford says lower the shoulder, knocked the ball out. Guys

521
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,120
Speaker 1: to run. Yeah, we've we've been next to Canna. He's

522
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 1: a he's he's a strong looking human like you don't

523
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,200
Speaker 1: see it, I feel like on the field because he's

524
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,200
Speaker 1: not like conventionally large or you're like six foot four

525
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 1: and two hundred and fifty pounds like a linebacker. But

526
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 1: then you get next to him, you're like, oh, yeah,

527
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 1: this guy, this guy's really in good shape. And if

528
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 1: if you were Nick forts, I wouldn't want to be

529
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:36,119
Speaker 1: Nick Fortez. Let's just put it that way. Even with

530
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:38,640
Speaker 1: the gear on, that probably didn't feel great. No, Marcannon's

531
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:40,800
Speaker 1: listed six two two ten, and that might be a

532
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 1: little bit light. Honestly, he's that's strong. That's that's that's

533
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:46,680
Speaker 1: a strong six to two solid. That's what it is. Solid. Yes,

534
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 1: just like ceios.

535
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, just like churious, I got your cheerios every

536
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,119
Speaker 2: morning I met my parents house always got cheerious year.

537
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:54,120
Speaker 2: I even so many cheerios this weekend. That's why Markanna

538
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 2: had this big game.

539
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 1: My parents, Like my family never ate cereal, like we

540
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 1: didn't really eat seal, but there is always cheer the house.

541
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:02,399
Speaker 1: It's got to be a New Jersey or like an

542
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:03,160
Speaker 1: Italian thing.

543
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,440
Speaker 2: Maybe I was messing around my family today. My aunt

544
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:07,240
Speaker 2: was over for dinner, to get some good family time.

545
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 2: And then like that generation, like the I think is

546
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 2: that I think it's Generation X that people after the

547
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 2: Baby Boomers, people born like sixty sixty seventies around then,

548
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 2: they have so many of these things that they're like

549
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 2: set in that like this generation always does. And like

550
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,439
Speaker 2: I feel like cheerios are one thing. I feel like

551
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,199
Speaker 2: just like always having like milk in the house, even

552
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 2: though no one really ever drinks it before. It's like

553
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:26,720
Speaker 2: you go out, you just get milk. You just always

554
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:27,120
Speaker 2: get milk.

555
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 1: You just have milk. No, no one drinks the milk,

556
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 1: and we have k milk. It's in case company comes over.

557
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 1: You never know if they need a cup of coffee.

558
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,359
Speaker 1: A cup of coffee puts the milk. You want sugar.

559
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 1: But then the other thing that I was.

560
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:38,720
Speaker 2: Messing around my ant but today big time is that

561
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,119
Speaker 2: for some reason, people in the East Coast try to

562
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 2: stay the area between the ages of say like forty

563
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:46,840
Speaker 2: nine and sixty one. No, not one adults ever tried

564
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:49,720
Speaker 2: Indian food. They got they get stuck in their head

565
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:52,200
Speaker 2: that like I don't like curry, it smells bad, messes

566
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 2: up your stomach. Like maybe curry can't smell bad sometimes,

567
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 2: but like actually the spice isn't you feel amazing for

568
00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 2: your stomach And it's just delicious cuisine. And like I

569
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:00,840
Speaker 2: was talking about with them and they all looked around.

570
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:02,480
Speaker 2: They were like, yeah, none of us have ever ever

571
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:03,600
Speaker 2: tried any food, and none.

572
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:06,199
Speaker 1: Of us ever will. I think I'm with them, and

573
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,440
Speaker 1: it's I mean, it has to do with an old men. Yeah, well,

574
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,680
Speaker 1: and the prones, you know, like the sensitive stomach is

575
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:12,960
Speaker 1: a little bit tough to probably have some Indian food

576
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 1: because I know what it does to like normal people's stomach.

577
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,399
Speaker 1: So for me, probably passed. But we do know that

578
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,160
Speaker 1: there's an amazing place in the story that you still

579
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,200
Speaker 1: have not yet tried, which I'm shocked. We've been talking

580
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,199
Speaker 1: about forever. That action Bronson went to what was it

581
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:26,479
Speaker 1: called Rody Body. Yeah, it's on your list. We'll get

582
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:26,959
Speaker 1: there eventually.

583
00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,200
Speaker 2: Shout out to the Indica House on Murder Lab in

584
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,479
Speaker 2: Bushwick kind of places the bomb, but just a weird thing,

585
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 2: I know, this weekend, and then get back to baseball

586
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:33,960
Speaker 2: for a set.

587
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, we had we had to get on a little.

588
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 2: TANGI yeah, Tim and Westfield hanging out with a crazy

589
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:39,880
Speaker 2: crew of people all weekend. So I got you gotta

590
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:41,920
Speaker 2: talk about a little bit. Tyler McGill in this game.

591
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:44,200
Speaker 2: I think was someone that Mets fans were a little

592
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,679
Speaker 2: bit apprehensive about just heading out of the spring training.

593
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 2: His command was a little off, his lost he wasn't

594
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 2: really there. He didn't really see the way his secondary

595
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,760
Speaker 2: pitches were like kind of meshing with his fastball and

596
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,760
Speaker 2: the rest's repertoire, but in a big park should be

597
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 2: noted against not so good, and offense also should be

598
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:01,920
Speaker 2: know that McGill was solid here and he pitched again

599
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:03,879
Speaker 2: well enough I think us to be comfortable with him

600
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:06,560
Speaker 2: moving forward in this hopefully seemingly short period of time

601
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 2: where Justin Verlander will not be available. There was a

602
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:10,320
Speaker 2: lot of good and bad, so I'm just gonna throw

603
00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:12,159
Speaker 2: it all out there now. The command was very iffy,

604
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 2: especially early. It felt like he was behind in every

605
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:16,639
Speaker 2: single count in the first two winnings when Loile Marlins

606
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 2: were on base. But he really, really really featured that slider.

607
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:22,879
Speaker 2: He threw it as much as his fastball, tied for

608
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:25,440
Speaker 2: the most strom pitches he had the entire game, which

609
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 2: is also kind of notable because he didn't throw any

610
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:28,159
Speaker 2: against lefties.

611
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,760
Speaker 1: I think it was like three or four total. Instead,

612
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,320
Speaker 1: against those lefties, he mixed in lots of curveballs and

613
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,919
Speaker 1: change ups relatively to how many threw against righty's. It

614
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:37,320
Speaker 1: was cool to see him dough that curveball because he

615
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 1: dropped eleven and got six called strikes with it. That's

616
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:41,080
Speaker 1: kind of nice.

617
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 2: So just getting those three strikes with that curveball, which

618
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:45,119
Speaker 2: is something that you know, maybe that doesn't happen the

619
00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 2: next time he goes through the league and now that

620
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:48,879
Speaker 2: everyone has film on his curveball and regular season games.

621
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,359
Speaker 2: But that was a very cool wrinkle for Tyler McGill

622
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 2: in the game where it seemed like early not everything

623
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,440
Speaker 2: was working and he kind of gutted out through five

624
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 2: innings and really didn't feel like early he was going.

625
00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:58,840
Speaker 1: To get there. And I wonder if that's something that

626
00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,200
Speaker 1: comes from like being around a sh because Surezer doesn't

627
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,160
Speaker 1: really throw his slider or left handed hitters like almost

628
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:04,720
Speaker 1: at all. I think he goes like a cutter against

629
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:06,960
Speaker 1: lefties and he loves to drop in that curve ball

630
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:08,199
Speaker 1: to try and just get a little bit of a

631
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,120
Speaker 1: free strike in there. So I wonder if just being

632
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 1: around a guy like Max schurz Er kind of rubbed

633
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:13,520
Speaker 1: off on him. I mean, I know we spoke to

634
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:15,040
Speaker 1: him and he said that, you know, they're talking all

635
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 1: the time. He's learned a lot from these guys. But

636
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 1: it's cool. I feel like to see it kind of

637
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,520
Speaker 1: in practice in a real, you know, regular season game,

638
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,080
Speaker 1: and like you said, overall positive start effective I think

639
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 1: would be the word that I use for Tyler McGill,

640
00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:27,359
Speaker 1: which whose effective. He's exactly what we needed, especially when

641
00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 1: the offense was swinging the battle a lot better. Omar

642
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:31,679
Speaker 1: Nervas as well kind of had it as welcome to

643
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,040
Speaker 1: be in a New York met moment. A couple big hits,

644
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 1: a couple of big RBIs. We haven't been used to

645
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,400
Speaker 1: seeing this stuff from the catcher position in quite some time,

646
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:41,400
Speaker 1: quite some time, so it's nice to see Omarin Nervas,

647
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 1: who has shown the ability to be a very good

648
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:46,120
Speaker 1: offensive catcher, starting to swing it well as well.

649
00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:49,040
Speaker 2: Absolutely, and on top of that, four shoutout innings from

650
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:52,120
Speaker 2: the Mets pen New bullpaman Dennis Santana looked very good

651
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,119
Speaker 2: this weekend. Through a very easy inning in the sixth,

652
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:56,520
Speaker 2: Drew Smith came in, Brooks Rarely got the last out

653
00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:58,680
Speaker 2: of the seventh, Adam on with Vino got two strikeouts

654
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:00,360
Speaker 2: after giving him two hits in the eighth, and David

655
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:02,880
Speaker 2: robertson another nice calm ninth inning.

656
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:05,679
Speaker 1: Denna Santana's a guy who I feel like we've always

657
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 1: talked about. Whenever we see him, we go throws hard,

658
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,760
Speaker 1: his stuff moves like why why doesn't he stick? What's

659
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 1: going on here, So it's good to see that he's

660
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 1: starting to look a little comfortable with the Mets. He

661
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 1: came in Game four, I believe as well and was effective.

662
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,240
Speaker 2: And there's only there's only two weeks with Jeremy Hefner.

663
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,480
Speaker 2: Imagine two months, right, here's one of the best believers

664
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,880
Speaker 2: in baseball. Besides this the sprinkle Yeah, so those little

665
00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:25,360
Speaker 2: Jeremy Heapener sprinkle magic Ferry does.

666
00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:27,200
Speaker 1: But it is now cool.

667
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:29,399
Speaker 2: After this first weekend, we've learned a lot about how

668
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 2: this bullpen will be managed and how bucks In handles.

669
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 2: It seems like we are going to have a pretty

670
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:36,840
Speaker 2: traditional setup here where Santana and Smith are kind of

671
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaker 2: like the sixth seventh inning guys rarely out of Vienna

672
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 2: or kind of the seventh eighth inning guys, and then

673
00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:43,159
Speaker 2: David Robertson's going to be the ninth inning guy. There

674
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 2: could be different situations where different guys get used in

675
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,200
Speaker 2: different spots depending on the matchups, but I do think

676
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 2: we get as Mets fans, we have learned a lot

677
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 2: this weekend about how this bullpen is going to look

678
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:52,760
Speaker 2: moving forward.

679
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel pretty good about it. Feel pretty good.

680
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,680
Speaker 1: Like the Marlins are pesky. Like we said, they're really

681
00:24:57,720 --> 00:24:59,240
Speaker 1: really annoying. But at the end of the day, they

682
00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:01,040
Speaker 1: were able to limit from scoring a lot of runs.

683
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:03,320
Speaker 1: It's exactly what we need, especially when the Mets offense

684
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,480
Speaker 1: is good. The Mets offense is good, hold up the sign.

685
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,520
Speaker 1: All right, let's move on to Game four. This is

686
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:09,960
Speaker 1: the most recent game that happened yesterday. For you guys

687
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 1: when you're listening to this, the Code I Sanga debut

688
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,000
Speaker 1: Major League debut. By the way, did you notice did

689
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:19,080
Speaker 1: you know about this? That on all jerseys for rookies

690
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,359
Speaker 1: making their debut this year, they put a patch. I

691
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 1: don't know if it's on the left right sleeve but

692
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,120
Speaker 1: says MLB debut on it, which is kind of cool.

693
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:26,920
Speaker 1: Saw Anthony of Volpi having on opening day for the

694
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,440
Speaker 1: Yankees Code I sangle ward today, and I believe they're

695
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:31,199
Speaker 1: then going to use that patch to be like new

696
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 1: one of ones and cards, which is like your card

697
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:36,560
Speaker 1: heads out there, like kind of a really really cool thing.

698
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:38,639
Speaker 1: In football, they do laundry tags that's like the one

699
00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:40,480
Speaker 1: of one as you get the laundry tag from the game.

700
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:42,480
Speaker 1: So I think this MLB debut patch is gonna be

701
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:44,719
Speaker 1: one of the coolest things that happens to cards, especially

702
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 1: for guy like Code I Senga, who looked really good

703
00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:49,359
Speaker 1: and he had the sick glove with the ghost on it.

704
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:52,159
Speaker 1: I mean, he was just I know it started, I

705
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,320
Speaker 1: know it started a little rough, but he really settled

706
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 1: it and looked pretty awesome.

707
00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:57,920
Speaker 2: Well, we definitely have to talk about that because again

708
00:25:57,960 --> 00:25:59,680
Speaker 2: I also did another thing about the patch, especially with

709
00:25:59,760 --> 00:25:59,919
Speaker 2: the car.

710
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's incredible.

711
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 2: That's what I love when like the league and like

712
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:05,119
Speaker 2: marketing kind of gets together and does something cool like that,

713
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:07,159
Speaker 2: and so stuff that's not cool for a change, But

714
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 2: it is important to talk about this Code I sang

715
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,159
Speaker 2: a start, like the totality of it, because in the

716
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,879
Speaker 2: first inning people were tweeting. We even got tweets at

717
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 2: met stuff like oh my god, this guy stinks, like

718
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:17,199
Speaker 2: this disaster.

719
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,359
Speaker 1: Heck, we have done this. We told you guys, We

720
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:21,159
Speaker 1: told you guys what was gonna happen. We got it

721
00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:24,560
Speaker 1: at slow easy with quote I sang easy.

722
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:27,159
Speaker 2: Then also as he moved through the game, people are like,

723
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:29,560
Speaker 2: oh my god, he's gonna pitch. He's gonna pitch game

724
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:31,240
Speaker 2: one of the nfces, Like this guy's get this guy's

725
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 2: best pitcher I've ever seen in my life, So I

726
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:35,000
Speaker 2: think again we said, there's so many things he's adjusting

727
00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 2: to and his command wasn't great in Japan as it was,

728
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:39,440
Speaker 2: so theatings are really going to go up and down,

729
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 2: and I think it's kind of cool for us to

730
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 2: talk about and analyze that. In the first start, we

731
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 2: saw all the up and down in one shot, like

732
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:48,080
Speaker 2: this is gonna be called I sang good this year personified.

733
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 2: And the first inning was so shaky it was terrifying.

734
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:53,320
Speaker 2: It was really cool that we got him runs beforehand, though,

735
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 2: because I'm sure there were a lot of nerves, and

736
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:57,680
Speaker 2: the fact that we got hustle runs from Jeff McNeil

737
00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:00,159
Speaker 2: after a tough at bat. I tweeted from mets up

738
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,439
Speaker 2: that was a frozen rope rope by Jeff as a classic,

739
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:04,119
Speaker 2: a little little funny joke, a lit'll find.

740
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:05,520
Speaker 1: Joke, you like to do it. I'm driving the book line,

741
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 1: driving the book especially.

742
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:08,119
Speaker 2: They did gi him a single on that, which I

743
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:09,399
Speaker 2: thought was kind of cool, even though he just ran

744
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,600
Speaker 2: right through the glove of first base, but cool to

745
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:13,440
Speaker 2: get those runs on the board. Also, Canada took some

746
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:15,880
Speaker 2: very tough pitches before that two load the basis, even

747
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 2: though it was a four pitch walk, a couple on

748
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:19,480
Speaker 2: the black to get Jeff in position to drive those

749
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:22,480
Speaker 2: runs home. So guy making the major league debut, take

750
00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:24,439
Speaker 2: a deep breath. We have runs home for you already.

751
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:26,800
Speaker 2: This is good stuff. And then in that first inning

752
00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:29,880
Speaker 2: we got through like five batters, and I was terrified.

753
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,879
Speaker 2: I was so scared for Coodai Sanga himself, for me

754
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:34,680
Speaker 2: as a fan, and then just for the onslaught of

755
00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:37,720
Speaker 2: Mets fans, the theah, the people who were just gonna

756
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:39,960
Speaker 2: get crazy when one thing goes kind of wrong. He

757
00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,720
Speaker 2: had thrown twenty three pitches in the first inning without

758
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:45,240
Speaker 2: getting it out. The Marbins already had the run home,

759
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 2: the bases were loaded, and he'd already thrown a wild pitch.

760
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:48,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it was.

761
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:51,119
Speaker 2: My dad texted me the classic Are you watching this?

762
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 2: And I was like, oh god, yeah, yeah I am.

763
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:54,280
Speaker 2: I got one of those two.

764
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,800
Speaker 1: I was at the airport in Dallas, smet Taiwan Walker

765
00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:58,760
Speaker 1: there in case you guys cared. I told him good luck.

766
00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 1: But even you know, Philly, I hope you guys don't

767
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:04,199
Speaker 1: do well. But yeah, it was it was a little bit,

768
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 1: a little bit shaky, a little bit oh kind of

769
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 1: felt at some point. But I think what's really really

770
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:13,640
Speaker 1: cool about this is that Kodaiegan was able to get

771
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,520
Speaker 1: through this. And you talk about like pitching an adverse.

772
00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:18,640
Speaker 1: We talked about David Pearson getting out of jams, while

773
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,840
Speaker 1: Coodei Sega definitely had a bit of a I don't

774
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:22,359
Speaker 1: want to say a disaster first sitting, but it was

775
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:24,639
Speaker 1: an opportunity for a disaster in the first sitting. It

776
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:26,359
Speaker 1: is really cool to see that he got through it

777
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:28,680
Speaker 1: and didn't really let it affect the rest of the game,

778
00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 1: which very much talk about snowballing with one of the

779
00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 1: best pitchers in the league, and Kodei Sanga kind of

780
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,400
Speaker 1: stopped it. He didn't even let snowball in that moment,

781
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,200
Speaker 1: even as things looked crazy all around him. He was

782
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:40,720
Speaker 1: very composed. He kept he just and he just started executing.

783
00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:42,680
Speaker 2: He got back to back strikeouts and Startling made a

784
00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:44,840
Speaker 2: nice play down the line to end that first inning.

785
00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:46,840
Speaker 2: It seemed like once he ended that first inning, he

786
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:48,560
Speaker 2: was able to breathe that sigh of relief again. He

787
00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 2: never waved looking at k I Sang on the mound.

788
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,280
Speaker 2: He absolutely never wavered, and when that inning ended, he

789
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,840
Speaker 2: hung out on that rail and he gradually every sing

790
00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:56,200
Speaker 2: I got moving back in. He was like, thank you,

791
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:59,000
Speaker 2: thank you, thank you, and now you guys got me.

792
00:28:59,160 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 1: Now I got you.

793
00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:03,040
Speaker 2: Because because after that he threw thirty six pitches in

794
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:04,760
Speaker 2: that first inning, he got through the second, third, and

795
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,960
Speaker 2: fourth with twenty seven combined. He faced only one batther

796
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:10,400
Speaker 2: over the minimum until from the end of the first

797
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:12,640
Speaker 2: inning until he was pulled in the sixth and a

798
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,200
Speaker 2: little weird, cool little nugget caveat. From that sixth inning,

799
00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:18,080
Speaker 2: he was left in to face Jazz Chisholm, who's presumably

800
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 2: the best hitter in this Martins lineup, and the lefty Kodaisanga,

801
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 2: who's a right he to be. The third time Jazz

802
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 2: was seeing him, Buck waited until he got the Koda

803
00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:28,240
Speaker 2: got the lefty out to bring in the righty Dennis Santana.

804
00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:30,200
Speaker 2: So that's definitely a factor of the fact that this

805
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 2: ghost fork is really good at getting hits out from

806
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 2: both sides of the plate that he's comfortable enough with

807
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 2: Kodai Sanga his first major league start, the third time

808
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:39,719
Speaker 2: facing a perennial All Star best hitter on the other

809
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:42,080
Speaker 2: team who was a lefty, to get him before going

810
00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:44,360
Speaker 2: to the bullpen. That's a major sign of confidence, and

811
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:46,800
Speaker 2: it's a really cool thing about Kodai's skillset. I don't

812
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 2: think we're really prepared for the ghost fork is.

813
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 1: It's it's a real pitch. It's a real pitch, like

814
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:55,960
Speaker 1: I remember, everyone remembers the gyro ball right with dice

815
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,520
Speaker 1: K Matsuzaka, and that was an effective pitch too. Granted

816
00:29:58,560 --> 00:29:59,960
Speaker 1: we were a little bit younger, so I don't remember.

817
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,960
Speaker 1: I don't I wasn't watching his pitches as you know, intently,

818
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,920
Speaker 1: as and with Code I Sanga now doing the official

819
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 1: podcast of the Mets. But I mean, from what we saw,

820
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 1: this pitch looks when it's like cooking like that, you

821
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:13,400
Speaker 1: just you don't hit it. There's a reason it's called

822
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:15,120
Speaker 1: the ghost for forkball. At some point you see and

823
00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:17,160
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, it's gone and it just dropped

824
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 1: out of the zone. And like I mean, he had

825
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:20,880
Speaker 1: major like all these major league hitters, even a guy

826
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,000
Speaker 1: like Julie Gariel. I believe at one point it was

827
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:25,360
Speaker 1: like a professional and these guys hit three hundred multiple

828
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 1: times in his career gets up there, he's I don't

829
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,520
Speaker 1: know what I just saw, Like that pitch, it's gone.

830
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:32,200
Speaker 1: I don't know what to do with that. No, the

831
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:33,040
Speaker 1: ghost was ghosting.

832
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:36,040
Speaker 2: And we've seen pictures with this very similar repertoires code

833
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 2: I Sanga where if you could sit upper nineties and

834
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 2: drop an amazing fork ball split there kind of put

835
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:43,160
Speaker 2: those together as like hard style change ups with more movement.

836
00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 2: Kevin Gaston's basically ridden this repertoire. It's becoming one of

837
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:47,360
Speaker 2: the best pitches in baseball over the last three years.

838
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,920
Speaker 2: Like this is something that is very, very tangible. If

839
00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,120
Speaker 2: you have these two things working, you can be elite

840
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 2: as good as any pitcher in the league. And we

841
00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 2: saw that Upside was saying it today that goes fork

842
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 2: got nine whiffs on fourteen swings. Tomorrow's absolutely no idea

843
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:01,680
Speaker 2: what was happening. And we'll say that we gotta pull

844
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:02,800
Speaker 2: back a little bit because a guy I remember we

845
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:04,320
Speaker 2: gotta keep you Guys real in the Mess Up podcasts,

846
00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:06,360
Speaker 2: keep you Guys ground to That was called that's only

847
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 2: pitch with multiple whiffs, and that was something we said

848
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 2: was going to be something not of a concern, but

849
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:12,720
Speaker 2: something that we had to keep track of as the

850
00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:16,080
Speaker 2: season went on. The sweeper looked amazing, like it was

851
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 2: really biting, but it only got one swing a miss,

852
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 2: and it doesn't seem like the Marlins are really kind

853
00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:22,400
Speaker 2: of getting after it that often. It wasn't really kind

854
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:23,960
Speaker 2: of thing they saw and were like, I have the

855
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 2: swing in decks, look like it's going to stay in

856
00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 2: the zone. It seemed like they were picking it up

857
00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:31,040
Speaker 2: somewhat easily, but that's fastball. SAT ninety seven. SAT ninety

858
00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 2: seven picked up above ninety nine and it got twelve

859
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:35,560
Speaker 2: called strikes, and it was something he was really leaning

860
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 2: on early in counts to get ahead so he could

861
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:38,480
Speaker 2: drop the ghost fork.

862
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:40,320
Speaker 1: I was about to say, and I think that the

863
00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:42,080
Speaker 1: ghost fork and even like I know you said the

864
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 1: sweeper wasn't necessarily getting a lot of swings and misses,

865
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:46,400
Speaker 1: but I think, like that probably tells me that the

866
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 1: tunneling on these pitches is really good and that maybe

867
00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:50,840
Speaker 1: like you can pick up the sweeper because it it

868
00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:52,960
Speaker 1: did seem like and it doesn't really look like those

869
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 1: other pitches. Yeah, it doesn't look like those other pitches,

870
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:57,680
Speaker 1: so maybe it's a little bit easier to recognize because

871
00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:00,240
Speaker 1: it's just I'm sure, yeah, the spin and everything, but

872
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:02,440
Speaker 1: like being able to get twelve called strikes on your

873
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 1: fastball is pretty like not common in baseball.

874
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,560
Speaker 2: No, it's actually incredible, and that alone is something that's

875
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:10,640
Speaker 2: really useful for him. I do wonder if again, as

876
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:12,320
Speaker 2: he goes around the league once and now we get

877
00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:14,880
Speaker 2: more people, get more film on him, and some people realize, like,

878
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:17,040
Speaker 2: he's gonna throw you a fastball outside of the first

879
00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:18,480
Speaker 2: second pitch of the at bats, so just be ready

880
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 2: for that. But he still got a called and swinging

881
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:24,040
Speaker 2: strike rate, which is you're called plus winging strikes divided

882
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:25,880
Speaker 2: by your pitches. The stats developed by Alex Fast few

883
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:27,480
Speaker 2: years ago for pitcher List has proven to be very

884
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 2: predictive and kind of a mark of how good pitchers are,

885
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:32,600
Speaker 2: and it's good to take it pitch by pitch. You

886
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:34,760
Speaker 2: can see when strikes are called and when guys are

887
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 2: missing with their bats. It was at least twenty eight

888
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:38,400
Speaker 2: percent every single pitch you threw, and that was the

889
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 2: ghost fork. The fastball is sweeper and even a couple

890
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 2: of colors. Again, the sweeper and the color. He can

891
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,160
Speaker 2: throw that many, So the sample's now is great. The

892
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:46,920
Speaker 2: League average for CSW rate is thirty percent, and the

893
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 2: fastball and the ghost fork, of course, we're significantly higher

894
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 2: than that. So those two pitches leading the repertoire. It's

895
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 2: very cool that those were able to get enough guys out,

896
00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:57,719
Speaker 2: keep enough guys off balance to keep that going sweeper.

897
00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 2: That's still a pitch that's very much being developed, like sanga. Yeah,

898
00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:03,080
Speaker 2: and that's a pitch that while it is good for

899
00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:05,720
Speaker 2: swings and misses, it's very good for limiting hard contact

900
00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:08,520
Speaker 2: and possibly even getting ground balls not so much. It

901
00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:10,200
Speaker 2: kind of is more for like a lazy fly ball pitch.

902
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:12,120
Speaker 2: But Sega wasn't able to find a couple of ground

903
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 2: balls today, which I guess because that forcing fastball doesn't

904
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 2: have like the traditional hoppy movement. It kind of has

905
00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 2: a little more run, but more ground balls than I

906
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 2: expected him to get. And just those pitches were working

907
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:23,920
Speaker 2: off each other so well that we should feel really,

908
00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 2: really really good about this debut.

909
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:27,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, end of the day, that's exactly what

910
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:29,240
Speaker 1: it should be. Should feel really good. Don't go to

911
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,360
Speaker 1: the crazy highs, don't go to the crazy lows. Just

912
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:33,479
Speaker 1: appreciate what we saw. Know that he's got a lot

913
00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:35,280
Speaker 1: of talent and know that he's got a sick glove

914
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:36,840
Speaker 1: as well. That glove. Did you see it? Did you

915
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:38,760
Speaker 1: get a picture of it? So so cool? I mean

916
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:41,000
Speaker 1: like the blue with the ghosts and everything. Everyone was

917
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,560
Speaker 1: loving it on Twitter too, like it was being posted everywhere. Yeah,

918
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:46,360
Speaker 1: lots of manga vibes, Yes, lots of manga vibes. So

919
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,280
Speaker 1: shout code. I great first start, super happy, especially because

920
00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:51,120
Speaker 1: it led to him AT's win. We also got to

921
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:54,920
Speaker 1: talk about a big day for mister James Shechiano because

922
00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:58,520
Speaker 1: he had been banging the Tommy Fam drum all off season.

923
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:02,320
Speaker 1: The Mets finally signed and Tommy Fam has his legacy

924
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:05,240
Speaker 1: game in game four of the season. After a rough spring.

925
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 1: We got a little insight though as to why maybe

926
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:09,040
Speaker 1: the spring was a little bit rough, maybe why the

927
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:10,960
Speaker 1: start of the season was a little rough. Tommy Fam

928
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:14,120
Speaker 1: apparently couldn't see Can you believe this? Tommy Fam said

929
00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:17,359
Speaker 1: he got new contacts on Friday and he can see again.

930
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,520
Speaker 1: It's like crystal clear. He's like, and I'm back, like

931
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:22,000
Speaker 1: I'm good. I couldn't believe that it was my vision.

932
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:25,480
Speaker 1: Can you even imagine playing doing anything honestly with like

933
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,400
Speaker 1: bad visions. Gotta be tough. Imagine playing Major League Baseball

934
00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,440
Speaker 1: trying to hit a pitch, trying to recognize spin. Whatever

935
00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:34,040
Speaker 1: that doctor did with those contacts. I mean he should

936
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:35,799
Speaker 1: be given a bonus because it looks like Tommy fam

937
00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:38,319
Speaker 1: might be back, definitely might be back.

938
00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:40,160
Speaker 2: And he played both games against left eas He hit

939
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,760
Speaker 2: lead off on Sunday against lefty Trevor Rodgers, very prominent

940
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:44,840
Speaker 2: spot in the order. He was a triple short of

941
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:47,400
Speaker 2: the cycle. Marlins are cowards for walking in the night

942
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:49,600
Speaker 2: than an absolute cowards are letting him for that happening.

943
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 2: Ended up with a double, a home or a single,

944
00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:55,399
Speaker 2: stolen base, a walk, a run score three RBIs Come on, baby,

945
00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 2: that's huge. And we did get a lot of questions

946
00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 2: on Twitter about the fact of how much players were

947
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:03,960
Speaker 2: shuffled in out this weekend. The Mets in the first

948
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:07,000
Speaker 2: three weeks of this season are playing I guess four weeks. Technically,

949
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:09,440
Speaker 2: they're playing twenty four games. Eighteen of them are going

950
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:10,920
Speaker 2: to be on the road. They're gonna have a lot

951
00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:12,640
Speaker 2: of early mornings, a lot of late nights, and they're

952
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:13,920
Speaker 2: gonna be playing a lot of days and days and

953
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:15,879
Speaker 2: days after one another so I think it is cool

954
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 2: that the season's opening, but hey, we know there's gonna

955
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:19,560
Speaker 2: be a lot of wear and tearing these guys. Get

956
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:21,799
Speaker 2: guys out of line up now, get Marte a day off,

957
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:24,439
Speaker 2: getting Nemo a day off, get Escobar day off, Get

958
00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:26,920
Speaker 2: these guys to get fresh as much as possible. And

959
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:28,920
Speaker 2: and this is something that I think I was just

960
00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:30,680
Speaker 2: texting you about this morning when the line came out,

961
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:33,480
Speaker 2: because we were like, up Sunday lineup time of Fama leadoff.

962
00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:34,080
Speaker 1: Just like how stupid we are.

963
00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:37,160
Speaker 2: But we've heard a lot of players very specifically talk

964
00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:39,239
Speaker 2: about the comfort of hitting in the same spot in

965
00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:41,480
Speaker 2: the order every single day. And we as fans are

966
00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:43,279
Speaker 2: like or people who you know like numbers, are like,

967
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:46,440
Speaker 2: oh my god, just move everyone up. Go Marte, lindor Alonzo.

968
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:47,640
Speaker 2: So if there's a big spot at the end of

969
00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:50,200
Speaker 2: the game, we get Martin Lindora up into the fam

970
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 2: and Marte up. But again, we're started talking more players,

971
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:54,719
Speaker 2: starting to get to know more players. A lot of

972
00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 2: players really say they have a very comfortable feeling knowing

973
00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 2: when they come to the park every single day they

974
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:02,479
Speaker 2: know where they're hitting in the lineup. Yep, there's something

975
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:04,439
Speaker 2: to it. Yeah, and that's something analytics and numbers don't

976
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 2: really catch. So pretty cool to see that players support that.

977
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:09,640
Speaker 2: And that's where the Mets are heading with the way

978
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:11,200
Speaker 2: they're gonna draw a lineup card out every day. Well

979
00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 2: see if it works out of the course of the season,

980
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,480
Speaker 2: but in this series specifically, in this game specifically, it

981
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:16,359
Speaker 2: is something that worked.

982
00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:19,200
Speaker 1: Also, how about our boil little Timmy low cashtro getting

983
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:21,440
Speaker 1: hit by two pitches. For those of you who are

984
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:23,759
Speaker 1: baseball fans, there's a great YouTube by the name of

985
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:26,440
Speaker 1: Foolish Baseball. Think everyone's a baseball fan probably listen, yea, yeah,

986
00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:29,440
Speaker 1: but like you know, a YouTube baseball fan, Foolish Baseball,

987
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:31,680
Speaker 1: great YouTuber. Shout out to him, friend of mine. He

988
00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:34,600
Speaker 1: kind of put Tim lacashro a little bit on the map,

989
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:38,479
Speaker 1: like personally, because Tim mccashro is a really interesting player

990
00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 1: and that he's unbelievably fast. He's one of the fastest

991
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:42,960
Speaker 1: players in the league, and he has a really really

992
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:45,719
Speaker 1: amazing ability of getting hit by pitches. I believe the

993
00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 1: video was about how Tim mccashtro can steal every base,

994
00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:51,239
Speaker 1: including first, and he talks about how Tim lacashro gets

995
00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:53,960
Speaker 1: hit by so many pitches in such a small sample,

996
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:55,759
Speaker 1: and then it allows him to steal second base and

997
00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:58,279
Speaker 1: steal third base or whatever it is. He's just he's

998
00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:00,360
Speaker 1: a pesky little player, and I like that he's on

999
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:02,719
Speaker 1: this team. He adds a little something that we had

1000
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:04,560
Speaker 1: at points last year, like when we had Terror score

1001
00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:07,560
Speaker 1: Tarran score and Travis Jankowski gives us that speed off

1002
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:09,440
Speaker 1: the bench, gives us another guy who can play the outfield.

1003
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:11,319
Speaker 1: But he also gives us a little bit more upside too.

1004
00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:12,840
Speaker 1: I think he's a little bit more of a ballplayer,

1005
00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:14,760
Speaker 1: a little more positive there than just speed.

1006
00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:17,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely positive at speed. And this is the way

1007
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,319
Speaker 2: they wrap up a really good series. Yep, everything worked.

1008
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:22,280
Speaker 2: We got we got to give guys day off on Sunday.

1009
00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:24,279
Speaker 2: We won a game pretty handedly after the first inning.

1010
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:26,480
Speaker 2: Never actually even trailed in this game as dicey as

1011
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:28,960
Speaker 2: it got, and you beat a team you're better than.

1012
00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 2: That's really all we can ask for these Mets to do.

1013
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:32,520
Speaker 2: Luisa Riyaz was a past He's always going to be

1014
00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:34,279
Speaker 2: a passed all the way. If Nick Fortes is a

1015
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:37,080
Speaker 2: new patented Mets killer. Gene Segura didn't even hit and

1016
00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:38,600
Speaker 2: he still made a couple of lights out plays at

1017
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:40,759
Speaker 2: third base. That's just the Geene Sigura thing against the Mets.

1018
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:41,319
Speaker 1: He kills us.

1019
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:43,680
Speaker 2: But this team just did a lot to do well.

1020
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:45,880
Speaker 2: We got a lost tats here Curzy of Johnny Stats.

1021
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:48,360
Speaker 2: Mets didn't strikeout more than eight times in any of

1022
00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:51,160
Speaker 2: these games, including just five each on Thursday and Sunday.

1023
00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:54,560
Speaker 2: Stole a base in all four games, which is pretty cool.

1024
00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:56,640
Speaker 2: And we've seen stolen bases way up across baseball this

1025
00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 2: whole weekend.

1026
00:37:57,320 --> 00:37:58,640
Speaker 1: I was about to say, I think they said the

1027
00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:01,440
Speaker 1: most stolen basis is nine teen oh one on opening Day,

1028
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 1: which was a seven seven okay, nineteen oh seven. Yeah,

1029
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:07,000
Speaker 1: most still in basis and like the success stret was

1030
00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:09,160
Speaker 1: really high too. So I don't know, how do you

1031
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:11,960
Speaker 1: feel about just like the state of baseball right now

1032
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:14,239
Speaker 1: with like the pitchclock, the shift, the new bases, the

1033
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:16,920
Speaker 1: way that the game is being played now. I mean personally,

1034
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:19,360
Speaker 1: to me, it didn't feel any different. Like I was like,

1035
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:20,840
Speaker 1: I think this is great and we just get a

1036
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:22,759
Speaker 1: lot more action in the short amount of time. That's

1037
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:23,600
Speaker 1: really like my comment.

1038
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:25,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think everyone should be pretty thrilled about I

1039
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:27,680
Speaker 2: still think the pitch clock has kicks to be worked out.

1040
00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:29,400
Speaker 2: I'm thinking, sure as are echoed this hot that just

1041
00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:31,920
Speaker 2: sometimes they're they're and it is just because the umpires

1042
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 2: aren't real used to it yet. It's a little rigid

1043
00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:36,200
Speaker 2: right now. Probably shouldn't be this rigid forever moving forward.

1044
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:38,440
Speaker 2: But the rule itself, what it's doing for the game,

1045
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:40,840
Speaker 2: I think is amazing. We're seeing players like work a

1046
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:43,400
Speaker 2: little harder. Were seeing that cardio up. We're seeing fielders

1047
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:45,480
Speaker 2: more in command. I saw before we got on recording,

1048
00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:47,320
Speaker 2: I was watching something in that baseball and Trey Turner

1049
00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:49,719
Speaker 2: was out of breath being miked up like in an

1050
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:51,320
Speaker 2: inning in the field because we're just moving there and

1051
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:53,879
Speaker 2: moving here like things are just this feels like much

1052
00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:55,920
Speaker 2: more of a spoor again instead of guys just like

1053
00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:58,040
Speaker 2: hanging out and not hanging on.

1054
00:38:58,080 --> 00:38:59,920
Speaker 1: I to take that back, that was ridiculous, I don't think.

1055
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:01,600
Speaker 2: But it's just like the fact that we're just seeing

1056
00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:03,640
Speaker 2: more like more balls and play, more guys running, like

1057
00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:04,600
Speaker 2: a lot more activities.

1058
00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:05,759
Speaker 1: Just I liked it a lot.

1059
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:07,919
Speaker 2: I was watching tons of baseball all weekend because it's

1060
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:08,960
Speaker 2: like it's like Christmas.

1061
00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:10,279
Speaker 1: It's awesome. I'm sure you too.

1062
00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:11,719
Speaker 2: I'm sure most of you guys listening too. It's just

1063
00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:13,440
Speaker 2: a sound on my couch all weekend. We'll watch as

1064
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:15,160
Speaker 2: much baseball as possibly could when I was around.

1065
00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:17,640
Speaker 1: But cool, cool, see the game. Cool, see the game

1066
00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:21,319
Speaker 1: making positive movement forward? Yeah. No, A couple other fun

1067
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:23,279
Speaker 1: stats about the Mets this weekend too. Mets struck out

1068
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,800
Speaker 1: forty one Marlins for a team that's not supposed to

1069
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:28,080
Speaker 1: actually strike out that much. They're supposed to. These guys

1070
00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:29,680
Speaker 1: that were brought in were about putting the ball in play,

1071
00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:31,919
Speaker 1: struck out a ton, and the Mets bullpen only around

1072
00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,600
Speaker 1: allowed one run in thirteen and two thirds innings pitched

1073
00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:37,960
Speaker 1: with three walks. I mean, if you want anything to

1074
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:39,920
Speaker 1: get excited about with the bullpen, that's that right there.

1075
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:42,799
Speaker 1: Should tell you everything. Weirdly enough, though, the Mets are

1076
00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:46,920
Speaker 1: not back in Miami till September, so I mean we'll

1077
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:49,080
Speaker 1: talk about them next week as well on the home opener,

1078
00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:50,160
Speaker 1: which should be a lot of fun.

1079
00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:52,200
Speaker 2: But then we could think about it until Aaron Rodgers

1080
00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:53,680
Speaker 2: has at least ten touchdowns with the Jets.

1081
00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:56,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, there you go, so really really excited about what

1082
00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:59,200
Speaker 1: happened this opening series, just a little minor league thing.

1083
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,759
Speaker 1: Brett Baty's ripped to cover off the ball, Francis Guaverrez

1084
00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:04,120
Speaker 1: ripping the cover off the ball. They'll be coming soon.

1085
00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:04,960
Speaker 1: They'll be coming soon.

1086
00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:07,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, and again we told you, guys, is about this,

1087
00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:09,759
Speaker 2: but the baby thing is gonna happen. It's just like

1088
00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:11,480
Speaker 2: we need to play some game theory here, and we

1089
00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:13,839
Speaker 2: also he just need to like really go down really

1090
00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 2: just like absolutely force the issue. And through what three

1091
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:18,520
Speaker 2: minor league games, I think he had three home runs,

1092
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:19,960
Speaker 2: he had a Grand Slam on Saturday, he had a

1093
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:21,880
Speaker 2: couple more hits on Sunday. He's making great plays at

1094
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:24,440
Speaker 2: third base. I think he has like over a five

1095
00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:26,640
Speaker 2: hundred bating average his first three games. It's just he's

1096
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:28,160
Speaker 2: really he's really just crushing the ball.

1097
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:30,920
Speaker 1: Did you catch the YouTube comments after our season preview.

1098
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:33,400
Speaker 1: Someone was really upset that we were not up in

1099
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:35,799
Speaker 1: arms about Brett Baity not starting the year at third base.

1100
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:39,080
Speaker 1: They're like, y one, these Mets guys, they don't say anything.

1101
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:42,320
Speaker 1: We're like, no, we just like rationally think about like everything,

1102
00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:45,520
Speaker 1: and you take the information that you have. Again, three

1103
00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:47,759
Speaker 1: out of four in the first series, pretty good, pretty good.

1104
00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:49,400
Speaker 1: Start to the year, and that was with you know,

1105
00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:52,640
Speaker 1: doom and gloom from some Mets fans. Glad, glad that

1106
00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:54,919
Speaker 1: a lot of you that listen to us aren't those fans,

1107
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:57,479
Speaker 1: though we're we're happy that you're here with us. Let's

1108
00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:02,080
Speaker 1: go ahead and preview the Mets versus Brewer series. But

1109
00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:04,840
Speaker 1: first we actually have to bring in Johnny Stats. I

1110
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:06,840
Speaker 1: didn't I forgot about this. It's the first game of

1111
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:10,560
Speaker 1: their first series of the season. We got to bring

1112
00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:13,000
Speaker 1: back the Estimate. Now the people still do not know

1113
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:15,520
Speaker 1: who lost the Estimate from last year. Of course, the

1114
00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:19,000
Speaker 1: punishment is wearing a tuxedo to Opening Day. We will

1115
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:20,560
Speaker 1: both be there. You will be able to see us

1116
00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:22,080
Speaker 1: if you were at the game on opening Day. I

1117
00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:24,279
Speaker 1: don't know if the video will be out yet. I

1118
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:26,320
Speaker 1: know Veto's working on that right now with somebody, so

1119
00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:28,080
Speaker 1: I assume it will be out by Opening Day, so

1120
00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:30,960
Speaker 1: you will know someone will be wearing a tuxedo and

1121
00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:32,279
Speaker 1: we have to bring it back. We had to bring

1122
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:34,120
Speaker 1: Estimate back for a second season. You guys loved it.

1123
00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:37,480
Speaker 1: John was the creator of Estimate and I'm excited to

1124
00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:39,600
Speaker 1: see what the first one of the year is. John,

1125
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:40,920
Speaker 1: what do you got for us.

1126
00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:44,280
Speaker 3: Guys, how'd they play baseball for one hundred years without pitchclock?

1127
00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:49,399
Speaker 3: I was thinking that's myself today, like it's incredible, it's revolutionary.

1128
00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:53,680
Speaker 3: So yes, we are back with Estimate season two. So

1129
00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:55,840
Speaker 3: we were talking before the show, and I think that

1130
00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:57,640
Speaker 3: it makes the most sense to break this up in

1131
00:41:57,719 --> 00:41:59,759
Speaker 3: a first half second half, kind of like that do

1132
00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:03,080
Speaker 3: in the Florida State League almost. So this is going

1133
00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:05,480
Speaker 3: to be the first estimate for the first half of

1134
00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:08,120
Speaker 3: the season, if you would, and that's going to be

1135
00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:12,680
Speaker 3: nothing else. Then how many pitchclock violations will we see

1136
00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:15,600
Speaker 3: in the Mets Brewery series? I think there were four

1137
00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:18,600
Speaker 3: in this in this series, and I have to say

1138
00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:22,520
Speaker 3: so obviously I'm all for pace of play. It's great games.

1139
00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:24,600
Speaker 3: I mean, the Padre game today ended in I think

1140
00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:27,840
Speaker 3: two hours and three minutes, so you know.

1141
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,640
Speaker 1: They I mean the Mets game on Friday was two hours,

1142
00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:31,920
Speaker 1: eight minutes, nine minutes.

1143
00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:34,440
Speaker 3: It was actually almost too fast. Like I was watching

1144
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:37,000
Speaker 3: with some friends and like they came over for the

1145
00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:38,400
Speaker 3: game and then all of a sudden, the game is

1146
00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:40,319
Speaker 3: just over. You know, usually in the past you got

1147
00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:42,160
Speaker 3: like at least three three and a half hours to

1148
00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:45,080
Speaker 3: hang out with the games sort of in the background,

1149
00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:45,560
Speaker 3: but not here.

1150
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:48,759
Speaker 2: I will say, I'm one thing I'm nervous about with

1151
00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:51,160
Speaker 2: the pitchclockse we haven't been at City Field yet for

1152
00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:54,000
Speaker 2: a pitchclock game. I am nervous about going to a

1153
00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:56,279
Speaker 2: concession stand or going to the bathroom. Used to be

1154
00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:58,440
Speaker 2: able to miss about the bathroom. Yeah, now you're kind

1155
00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:00,319
Speaker 2: of missing a half inning with the pitchclock a little

1156
00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:03,359
Speaker 2: also that Also, you know the the alcohol sales seventh inning,

1157
00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:05,439
Speaker 2: it's a quick cutoff. Now it's like a good hour

1158
00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:07,360
Speaker 2: and twenty five minutes. You got to get your drinks in.

1159
00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:09,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, get to early.

1160
00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:13,160
Speaker 3: It's it's it's funny how many different corners of the

1161
00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:15,960
Speaker 3: sport are being changed by the pitchclock, things that no

1162
00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:18,879
Speaker 3: one has thought about, and we won't actually realize them

1163
00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:21,239
Speaker 3: until they kind of smack us in the face. So

1164
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:24,239
Speaker 3: but all in all, an incredible time. The one thing

1165
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:27,680
Speaker 3: I will say about pitch clock violations is that I

1166
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:32,480
Speaker 3: found umpires have not been I guess, I guess demonstrative

1167
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:36,840
Speaker 3: enough with their calls, especially in a stadium where unless

1168
00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:39,479
Speaker 3: the count on the board changes and everyone is looking

1169
00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:42,520
Speaker 3: at it, you know, Yeah, there was one today where

1170
00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:44,120
Speaker 3: the umpire came out from behind the point. I think

1171
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:46,640
Speaker 3: it was Edwin Moscoso behind the point today, and it

1172
00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:49,360
Speaker 3: looked like he was just calling time and then he

1173
00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:52,320
Speaker 3: turns around. He's looking up to the press box and

1174
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:54,200
Speaker 3: he points to his watch. But when you're watching on

1175
00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:56,319
Speaker 3: home and you have the center field camera angle, you're

1176
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 3: not seeing that. So I just feel like either an

1177
00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:01,560
Speaker 3: announcement needs to be made by the umpire or some

1178
00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:04,840
Speaker 3: other very clear cut way a strike has been assessed,

1179
00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:06,560
Speaker 3: the ball has been assessed for a violation.

1180
00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:08,120
Speaker 1: Well.

1181
00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:10,440
Speaker 2: The irony is also even just when a pitcher throws

1182
00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:12,239
Speaker 2: a ball in a game, there is no real call

1183
00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:14,040
Speaker 2: for it either. It's just like a silent ball goes

1184
00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:15,799
Speaker 2: on the board. Like if there's a strike, he could

1185
00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:18,200
Speaker 2: walk out front be like strike one. But for the ball,

1186
00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:19,200
Speaker 2: there really isn't even an.

1187
00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:21,480
Speaker 1: Option for that. Yeah, I guess you just kind of yeah,

1188
00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:24,440
Speaker 1: I quietly say, like ball, yeah, which which is.

1189
00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:27,160
Speaker 3: Why maybe some sort of an announcement would be good.

1190
00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:27,800
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1191
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:30,840
Speaker 3: I think that after you know, two three weeks, four weeks,

1192
00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:33,359
Speaker 3: which is a month, you know, fans will be used

1193
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:36,960
Speaker 3: to this and it'll kind of just be second nature.

1194
00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:39,680
Speaker 3: That's where I'm hoping or where I think this gets to.

1195
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:42,680
Speaker 3: But right now, there's there's a there's a learning curve

1196
00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:46,280
Speaker 3: in stadiums. It's kind of kind of weird. Yeah, But anyway,

1197
00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:49,960
Speaker 3: speak Thursday is gonna be a trip Thursday. One of

1198
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:53,000
Speaker 3: you will be wearing a tuxedo. Now we start the

1199
00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:55,680
Speaker 3: journey to see who will be whatever the next punishment is.

1200
00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:57,920
Speaker 3: By the way, guys, when you tell the listeners, how

1201
00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:00,160
Speaker 3: are we going to determine what the second punishment it's

1202
00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:00,440
Speaker 3: going to be.

1203
00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:03,840
Speaker 1: So we want you guys at home to be tweeting

1204
00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:05,880
Speaker 1: us whatever way you can reach out to us. If

1205
00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:07,520
Speaker 1: you see us at the stadium, say if you've got

1206
00:45:07,600 --> 00:45:09,239
Speaker 1: a great idea for what the punishment can be for

1207
00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:12,360
Speaker 1: the first half, let us know. Obviously, tuxedo is always

1208
00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:14,040
Speaker 1: in play, but we don't also want to do the

1209
00:45:14,080 --> 00:45:15,640
Speaker 1: same thing over and over again. We want to keep

1210
00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:17,520
Speaker 1: it fresh, we want to keep it fun. So as

1211
00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:20,040
Speaker 1: long as you guys can come up with a realistic punishment,

1212
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:23,040
Speaker 1: not something that's like absolutely crazy, like you know, streak

1213
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:24,920
Speaker 1: on the field, like that's not gonna happen. That's that's

1214
00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:27,640
Speaker 1: not a real punishment, But like a tuxedo to the game,

1215
00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:29,839
Speaker 1: or I don't know, maybe maybe we don't do nine

1216
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:31,799
Speaker 1: hot dogs again. That's that was a tough one, James.

1217
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:33,080
Speaker 1: James is still recovering, but.

1218
00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:35,120
Speaker 2: That has to be something that's like, I mean, estimate,

1219
00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:37,000
Speaker 2: we're gonna do this for like one hundred The first

1220
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:39,120
Speaker 2: half punishment is almost more meaningful in the second half punihment.

1221
00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:40,520
Speaker 2: It's gonna be more games by the time we get

1222
00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:42,279
Speaker 2: through the All Star Game in Seattle. It's the middle

1223
00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:44,640
Speaker 2: of July. It's a long way from now, and I

1224
00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:46,120
Speaker 2: think there's even the chances we're both at the All

1225
00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:48,480
Speaker 2: Star Game. So yeah, we could even incorporate something in

1226
00:45:48,560 --> 00:45:50,560
Speaker 2: Seattle into the punishment, maybe like someone's got to eat

1227
00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:52,000
Speaker 2: like a thousand grasshoppers.

1228
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:53,480
Speaker 1: One.

1229
00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:55,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, so does you guys, Yeah, hit us up with

1230
00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:57,719
Speaker 2: some estimate punishments if you guys want to see Mark

1231
00:45:57,760 --> 00:45:59,719
Speaker 2: doing it, because of course he's gonna lose this first half.

1232
00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:02,440
Speaker 1: No no shot, no shot, no shot. So James, you

1233
00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:04,200
Speaker 1: got your number. I got my number written down already.

1234
00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:05,600
Speaker 1: I do have my number, yes, all right.

1235
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:09,880
Speaker 3: Jost twenty twenty three, revealing.

1236
00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:19,320
Speaker 1: Three two one ooh, okay two two. I'm I have

1237
00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:23,439
Speaker 1: had the three. I honestly was gonna go with one,

1238
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:26,680
Speaker 1: but that was like James, James is not gonna pick two,

1239
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:28,799
Speaker 1: Like that's that's two low of a number for James. Two.

1240
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:30,560
Speaker 1: That's kind of funny. I thought about me before I

1241
00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:32,560
Speaker 1: even got there. I thought about zero as well. It's like,

1242
00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:34,080
Speaker 1: what if they just don't have one? But I feel

1243
00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:36,160
Speaker 1: like it's happened, like in every single game, it's probably

1244
00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:37,920
Speaker 1: gonna happen. Like John said, for the first month. So

1245
00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:40,520
Speaker 1: all right, John, thank you so much for the estimate.

1246
00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:42,560
Speaker 1: We will check back with you on the next episode

1247
00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:44,880
Speaker 1: to see who ends up winning. I think it is

1248
00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:47,440
Speaker 1: now time for us to preview this Brewers series. Like

1249
00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:50,440
Speaker 1: we just mentioned, Bruiser Good Team. Bruiser good Team, a

1250
00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:52,840
Speaker 1: team that means you have spoke a lot about off camera,

1251
00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:54,720
Speaker 1: A team that I thought could definitely win the division.

1252
00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:56,560
Speaker 1: I think in your predictions you actually had them winning

1253
00:46:56,560 --> 00:47:00,560
Speaker 1: the National League Central Sneaky good life. I think that's

1254
00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:01,920
Speaker 1: the way I say it's sneaky good. I don't think

1255
00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:04,160
Speaker 1: it's a good lineup, but it's sneaky good. I would

1256
00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:07,360
Speaker 1: say their lineup is deeper than you would match it.

1257
00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:09,200
Speaker 1: Just from playing this team in the last couple of years.

1258
00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:11,440
Speaker 1: They're coming off winning two out of three against the

1259
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:13,759
Speaker 1: Cubs this weekend in Chicago this weekend. A team that

1260
00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:16,960
Speaker 1: was vastly improved, a team that has okay rotation, an

1261
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:18,879
Speaker 1: okay lineup in the Cubs. Again, I think the Brewers

1262
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:21,399
Speaker 1: are significantly better in the Cubs, but they're better than them.

1263
00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:23,560
Speaker 1: This Bruise lineup right now still is Christian Yellish at

1264
00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:26,320
Speaker 1: the top. Jesse Winker recent edition, William Domas right tiles

1265
00:47:26,320 --> 00:47:28,760
Speaker 1: in the middle of coming off huge seasons. Brian Anderson

1266
00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:32,040
Speaker 1: old friend recent edition. I think Garrett Mitchell, Bryce Terrang,

1267
00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:34,759
Speaker 1: Joey Weimer, A couple of prospects are up there trying

1268
00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:36,439
Speaker 1: to make a play. And there's another guy they added

1269
00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:38,520
Speaker 1: who is it? Luke and Luke Voight. No, this is

1270
00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:40,000
Speaker 1: the guy they added in the offseason. Well, I can't

1271
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:43,040
Speaker 1: remember right now they added another guy this team. I'm thinking,

1272
00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:46,440
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, I'm thinking, keep talking on the team. On

1273
00:47:46,480 --> 00:47:48,879
Speaker 1: the team. He said a Winker, didn't you? And he's

1274
00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:49,399
Speaker 1: hitting second.

1275
00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:51,520
Speaker 2: He's presumably like one of the best hitters in that lineup,

1276
00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:54,719
Speaker 2: and that one, oh Williams, William Contraras there it is, Yes,

1277
00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:56,759
Speaker 2: so that one through five when Concera's is playing of

1278
00:47:57,120 --> 00:48:00,520
Speaker 2: Yellwich winker Adamis Teles Contreras, that that's kind of a

1279
00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:02,480
Speaker 2: legitimate one through five. There's not many easy there's no

1280
00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:04,239
Speaker 2: easy outs there, and it's a lot of guys who

1281
00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:05,799
Speaker 2: could put the ball out of the park. So, yes,

1282
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:08,120
Speaker 2: this is a lineup that is significantly better than we've

1283
00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:10,200
Speaker 2: seen in years past. And we know the rotation is great,

1284
00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:12,440
Speaker 2: and we are getting two out of three of their

1285
00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:15,160
Speaker 2: studs going into the series. And also all Mets fans

1286
00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:18,080
Speaker 2: be aware, three game series, two day games. We're playing

1287
00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:20,920
Speaker 2: two o'clock Eastern time on Monday and one for the

1288
00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:24,400
Speaker 2: Eastern time on Wednesday, so everybody be aware, set your clocks,

1289
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:27,759
Speaker 2: don't miss those games. Monday afternoon, Brewer's home opener, we

1290
00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:30,719
Speaker 2: have Carlos carrasco versus Freddie Peralta. Paralta is a guy

1291
00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:33,320
Speaker 2: who was one of the best pitches in baseball literally

1292
00:48:33,360 --> 00:48:34,840
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty one. He dealt with a lot of

1293
00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:38,440
Speaker 2: injuries last year, but very talented guy. Didn't see him.

1294
00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:41,560
Speaker 2: And then Tuesday night seven to forty another interesting start

1295
00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:43,680
Speaker 2: time there, be aware of that weird weird times the

1296
00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:46,319
Speaker 2: series Max Scherz their second star of the year against

1297
00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:50,200
Speaker 2: Wade Miley, a guy who is just straight junk, just crafty, lefty.

1298
00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:52,879
Speaker 2: He can be very annoying and unfortunate. Look at Tommy

1299
00:48:52,920 --> 00:48:54,000
Speaker 2: fan for no Legacy game.

1300
00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:56,440
Speaker 1: There you see Johnny stats sad he just dropped us.

1301
00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:59,719
Speaker 1: Apparently four of six Wade Miley starts against the Mets

1302
00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:01,560
Speaker 1: and news career have ended five to four.

1303
00:49:02,080 --> 00:49:04,839
Speaker 2: Okay, so yeah, if you guys bet responsibly, I mean,

1304
00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:06,600
Speaker 2: that's something this geek you probably getting saying. O, it's

1305
00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:08,680
Speaker 2: on just a case, it's a weird anomaly. And then

1306
00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:14,320
Speaker 2: Wednesday afternoon travel day home opener Eve David Peterson, Corbyn Burns.

1307
00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:19,279
Speaker 1: And then asof which we've hit Corbyn Burns. Okay, right,

1308
00:49:19,760 --> 00:49:21,880
Speaker 1: like I don't know, I don't remember. Get some stats

1309
00:49:21,880 --> 00:49:23,320
Speaker 1: on that split right now, that'd be great because I

1310
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:24,680
Speaker 1: can't type fest and how you know what I was

1311
00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:26,640
Speaker 1: thinking of? I was thinking Jose Pirazza, but that's he

1312
00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:27,680
Speaker 1: owns Josh Hater.

1313
00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:30,279
Speaker 2: Now he's out in San Diego. We're gonna get him

1314
00:49:30,320 --> 00:49:33,479
Speaker 2: next week. But this Brewers team is annoying. Corbenin Burns

1315
00:49:33,480 --> 00:49:35,800
Speaker 2: didn't have a good start opening day against the Cubs.

1316
00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:38,040
Speaker 2: But he's one of the best pitchers in all of baseball.

1317
00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:39,719
Speaker 1: Second year in a row. He had a bad start

1318
00:49:39,800 --> 00:49:42,880
Speaker 1: in Chicago on opening Day, so I think it might

1319
00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:44,960
Speaker 1: just be like a Chicago it's cold. It was like

1320
00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:47,640
Speaker 1: thirty five degrees in windy like at that place has

1321
00:49:47,640 --> 00:49:49,799
Speaker 1: got to be miserable to play. And in April first

1322
00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:52,120
Speaker 1: or I was technically March at that time, got to

1323
00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:54,040
Speaker 1: be a miserable place to be. Yeah, And he's just

1324
00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:55,800
Speaker 1: he's just really good like he's and he's used to

1325
00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:58,879
Speaker 1: pitching inside too. He's used to pitching inside. I'll comfy, cozy,

1326
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:00,879
Speaker 1: He'll be comfy cozy, and I'm sure, sure he's gonna

1327
00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:03,279
Speaker 1: be nice. But John just told us in September last

1328
00:50:03,320 --> 00:50:05,480
Speaker 1: year we scored five runs against him, so he must

1329
00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:07,640
Speaker 1: have had some success. Will take it. The lineup's good,

1330
00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:10,560
Speaker 1: trust the process, trust the team, trust the lineup, and

1331
00:50:10,760 --> 00:50:13,480
Speaker 1: I think we'll be okay. Uh, you said it was Carrasco,

1332
00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:18,960
Speaker 1: then Schuzer, Carrasco, Peterson cool. Yeah, I mean, listen, it's

1333
00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:21,280
Speaker 1: gonna be good baseball. This could be like a playoff

1334
00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:23,520
Speaker 1: matchup at some point two Both teams are very much

1335
00:50:23,520 --> 00:50:26,800
Speaker 1: playoff teams. I think Brewers maybe aren't getting as much respect,

1336
00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:28,680
Speaker 1: their respect on their name. They're a good team, and

1337
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:30,800
Speaker 1: Craig Counsel is one of the best managers in baseball

1338
00:50:30,960 --> 00:50:33,439
Speaker 1: without a doubt. So I'm excited. I'm excited. I also

1339
00:50:33,480 --> 00:50:35,640
Speaker 1: love day games. I love day games. There's nothing like

1340
00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:37,880
Speaker 1: a day baseball game. Well, yeah, that comes from not

1341
00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:41,000
Speaker 1: having a job. I have a job, I just don't

1342
00:50:41,080 --> 00:50:44,320
Speaker 1: have a nine to five Listen. I mean, you know

1343
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:46,000
Speaker 1: what I'm doing behind the scenes. I'm gonna be working

1344
00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:48,319
Speaker 1: during the during the early hours of the day this year,

1345
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:51,680
Speaker 1: so we'll see how it goes. Eleven am. Yeah, it's

1346
00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:54,479
Speaker 1: a good start. Time for your boys. Listen. I'm gonna

1347
00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:56,839
Speaker 1: use the YouTuber life to my advantage at all as

1348
00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:58,840
Speaker 1: you should. Yeah, I'll never feel bad about it. But

1349
00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:02,040
Speaker 1: I think that pretty much wraps up this episode. Here,

1350
00:51:02,520 --> 00:51:05,880
Speaker 1: just at the anniversary of Gil Hodges's death today passed away.

1351
00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:08,520
Speaker 1: How many years ago is this? I gotta do quick math,

1352
00:51:08,680 --> 00:51:12,520
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy two, so that is what fifty one fifty

1353
00:51:12,520 --> 00:51:15,520
Speaker 1: one years ago since skill Hodges passed away, legendary Mets

1354
00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:18,640
Speaker 1: manager of course, And yeah, this is the end of

1355
