1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,159 Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to Waken Jake, myself, Jake's story, Ellie 2 00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:08,520 Speaker 1: BBD and we are talking some baseball, some September call ups, 3 00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:12,440 Speaker 1: some impact players. There was also it was fun going 4 00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:17,160 Speaker 1: team by team and seeing who called up prospect versus 5 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:21,400 Speaker 1: veteran versus how many teams lined up veterans for this 6 00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:24,760 Speaker 1: September first, which I was also interested because I don't know, 7 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:29,319 Speaker 1: we're only a couple of years into the expanded but 8 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,640 Speaker 1: less expanded rosters, Like I know, we've we've dabbled in 9 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,559 Speaker 1: it for a couple of years, but we're still you know, 10 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:38,960 Speaker 1: people remember the days of forty men in the rays 11 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:44,000 Speaker 1: abusing it. So it was interesting. I will say, uh, 12 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:47,560 Speaker 1: my baseball loser, which a lot of you have kick 13 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:52,159 Speaker 1: in that covers this clicking team to team and being like, 14 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: ooh okay, that's actually those are two impact pieces, or 15 00:00:57,840 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: you know, there were a chunk of teams that it's like, 16 00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 1: we need another arm and here's a guy who's rode 17 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 1: the bus with us all year. This guy's in the 18 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:11,480 Speaker 1: Yankees case, specifically Rizzo's back. They are part of what 19 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 1: sparked this conversation for me. Also Cleveland, who ended up 20 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 1: getting my award and Talking Baseball Today, top prospect coleman Zardo, 21 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 1: starting pitcher Alex Cobb. So, I thought it was interesting 22 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 1: going around as we are in the home stretch four 23 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:36,319 Speaker 1: weeks of regular season baseball, we a couple of these 24 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,400 Speaker 1: teams will hit along the way. I'll mention you know, 25 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 1: the Chicago Cubs have some exciting stuff going on. I 26 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: was excited to click on their page and see who 27 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 1: got called up. So and I mean, we're starting to 28 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: hit a sports apocalypse of sorts, college football rolling this weekend. 29 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 1: I hope your team did well. Got to watch a 30 00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: chunk of usc LSU last night. That was fun. And yeah, 31 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 1: we've got NFL games Thursday, Friday and Sunday maybe full 32 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 1: college football slate. We are in it, people, so let's 33 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: enjoy it together. Thank you for tuning in. Hope you're 34 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: subscribed and all that jazz. If not, do it now, 35 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:24,839 Speaker 1: let's start going through some of the September callups and 36 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 1: I will check the box. We'll do the al first, 37 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 1: and I'll start with my Yankees. As BBD revealed Anthony 38 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:37,679 Speaker 1: Rizzo was essentially part of their September callups. They did. 39 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: The Yankees like to think they're smarter than everyone. Hello. 40 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 1: So they also sent down two guys, so they basically 41 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 1: brought in four fresh bodies. And the controversial topic of 42 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 1: it was not calling up Jason Dominguez, top prospect outfielder. 43 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: So I would love to you guys know your team 44 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,920 Speaker 1: better than us. If you guys have a hot topic 45 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 1: on this issue, a prospect that didn't called up, another 46 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: player that didn't get called up, let us know. I'm 47 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 1: very interested in this and every time I clicked over, 48 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: there's obviously teams of less interest, but there is teams 49 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: of more interest. And Rizzo came up. He had a 50 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 1: two hit day, made a nice play at first base. 51 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: The Yanks haven't been missing that, so they were excited 52 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 1: to see him. And then some bullpen depth. But yeah, 53 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 1: the story there has been Jason Domingez. If you find 54 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 1: your way into Yankees x slash Twitter, you'll see some 55 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 1: of that conversation. It's most likely a lot of service 56 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: time manipulation. If he has a certain amount of at 57 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: bats the rest of the way, he would lose his 58 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 1: rookie eligibility. John Hayman also tweeted out that it's probably 59 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 1: not that they are in with Alex Vdugo and Trent Grisham, 60 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 1: which I believe part of that too. 61 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 2: Like I do think there's a legitimate like, well, they 62 00:03:57,760 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 2: aren't going to just straight up and not play for 63 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 2: d Go where Grisham ever, again, and while there's seven 64 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 2: days a week to play Jason Demingez, they will for 65 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 2: another week or two if it doesn't come up at 66 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 2: any point, that would be a huge, huge mistake. You 67 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 2: can make the argument either way that what does one 68 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 2: more week really matter? But he's been hurt. 69 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,160 Speaker 1: A lot this year. He's kind of lost this year developmentally. 70 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 1: So Yankees don't believe in day to day baseball. The 71 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,359 Speaker 1: Yankees don't. They've shown that that they're not ready to 72 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 1: punt on Alex Vradugo. That means that means people in 73 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 1: their front office have to admit they're wrong. They let 74 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,279 Speaker 1: Joey Gallo, who was struggling as bad of a player 75 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: could struggle, go all the way to the trade deadline. 76 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 1: We've seen this from him, DJ lem Mayhew. They were 77 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 1: playing him up to this weekend and he was struggling 78 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 1: more than any player in baseball. 79 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 2: And they haven't proven there they're done throwing him out there. Oh, 80 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 2: they just didn't face any lefties. 81 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: He's still on the roster, so like, yeah, I think 82 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: the Yankees are in a deep way on that one. Again, 83 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 1: these are pretty Yankee centric and this isn't supposed to 84 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 1: be Yankees, So if your team has something going on 85 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: like that, let us know. I was excited to click 86 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: over to the Baltimore Orioles click. I did this all 87 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 1: on Fangrafts roster resource, so there also may be you know, 88 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 1: there are some teams that did some funk between also 89 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: sending guys up or someone else got sent down. So 90 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:21,480 Speaker 1: this is these are round numbers with humans. Recent moves 91 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,840 Speaker 1: they made up and down Baltimore a couple big ones. 92 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: Zach Eflin is back for them. He shoved again seven 93 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:33,239 Speaker 1: innings pitch. There was a lot more MLB starting pitchers 94 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 1: lined up for this date than I thought, And I 95 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 1: don't know if that's lazy work by front offices because 96 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: we've joked about previously. Another team that me and BBD 97 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 1: are fans of that will not be mentioned, but they 98 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: like to put arbitrary dates out there and line them 99 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 1: up for that. There was a Dodger series that played 100 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 1: the aforementioned team that the Yankees activated three or four 101 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: guys for that series. 102 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 2: There's been too many instances of like three guys came 103 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:02,799 Speaker 2: back from injury same day. 104 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 1: And they're doing it again the next week. But enough 105 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: on that. Also, Uh, super prospect Kobe Mayo, who depending 106 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,920 Speaker 1: where you get your prospect rankings, saw him eleventh on 107 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: a chart overall. Uh, he's rode the bus a little 108 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,839 Speaker 1: bit this year. He is back with Baltimore. So I 109 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 1: looked at those two and I was like, Okay, those 110 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: are impact guys like Kobe Mayo could get some run. 111 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: He's on that. It's been on that Norfolk Tides team 112 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 1: setting records. And Zach Eflin, obviously a big trade piece acquisition, 113 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: has been great for them, had another great start. Uh, 114 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 1: Boston falling further out of it. Valdez who's rode the 115 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,840 Speaker 1: bus for them, and Shoegart not too much there that 116 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: does have some fun games. Uh. Tampa Bay Zach Lttel 117 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 1: Uh so again another like major league starting pitcher that 118 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 1: got lined up for this date. And then they called 119 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 1: up Logan Driscoll, third catcher, number forty six prospect in 120 00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: the York Sure Toronto the whole roster. Go check out 121 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 1: the Toronto Blue Jays if whether you're knee deep in 122 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: baseball or you're not, the Blue Jays roster might shock you. 123 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: It was the least experienced roster that Blue Jays had 124 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 1: ever put out on a field, according to a tweet 125 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 1: I saw, and don't double check it. When you look 126 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 1: at the roster, you will be shocked. And again, this 127 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: isn't shots fired at the Blue Jays. I think Blue 128 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 1: Jays fans are probably sending their own shots fired at 129 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: themselves right now. And a credit to Foolish Bailey, who 130 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 1: on this show a little before this time last year 131 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: was like there could be a demise of the Toronto 132 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 1: Toronto Blue Jays and we're kind of watching it. I'll 133 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: just go through the lineup, Wick, quick, Wick. I'll even 134 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: include the bench George Springer, not young Don Varshow sure, Gladdie, yep, 135 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 1: this is when it starts going. Spencer Horowitz, Addison Barger, 136 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: Alejandro Kirk, Joey Lo Perfido, Ernie Clement, Will Wagner on 137 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 1: your bench, Brian Servant, Luis de los Santos, Leo Jmenez, 138 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: Davis Schneider, and Nathan Lukes. I think they bench Springer 139 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 1: for a day. So I think that cooked the numbers 140 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: for them a little bit. But yeah, I think Sunday's 141 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: lineup was like the least experienced lineup in Blue Jay's history. 142 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: Pretty wild how you get there? So then I clicked 143 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 1: over Cleveland, the top Dogs, the top guards guarding the 144 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 1: central Kyle Manzardo, pretty legit prospect, top fifty prospect he 145 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:48,439 Speaker 1: was traded for. Was he Savali a year and a 146 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: half ago? As the Brewers tap into him? I believe so. Oh, 147 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 1: Baseball Reference just brought up Marcus Mazzardo, who I haven't 148 00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: been keeping up with. Let's see, at the college level 149 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four, he got on base, not a 150 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 1: lot of power. How is this even a page? How 151 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: am I looking at Marcus Mazardo right now? Anyways, Kyle Manzardo, 152 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,680 Speaker 1: who had a cup of coffee and kind of struggled, 153 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 1: called back up. First game, back kid, two home runs. 154 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 1: Let's see what that matters for him. I love someone 155 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 1: who comes up to the big leagues, gets knocked around 156 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: and then gets a chance to follow it up, whether 157 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,080 Speaker 1: that's in the minor leagues or that's in the off season. 158 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 1: Let's see how impactful he can be. I know the 159 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 1: Guards have been hunting for hitting in the second half. 160 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 1: And then Alex kald who gave them like five no 161 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 1: hit innings back in their rotation. So another one of those. 162 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: I mean, those are two impact pieces for them. Literally 163 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 1: in that day, they got a great they got a 164 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:50,560 Speaker 1: quality start, and they got a two homer game. You're 165 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 1: feeling the impact of that. Detroit called up jhm Aka 166 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 1: Justin Henry Malloy, who's dh for them little bit this year, 167 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 1: probably get a little bit of run and a pitcher, 168 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: not super impactful. Watch out for them Tigers. If they 169 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 1: survive a Padre series earlier this week, they're kinda enter 170 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 1: a dystopian wild card race. It's gonna be fun with 171 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,559 Speaker 1: them in the Cubs to see if they can really 172 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: make it matter. They've done enough to put them in 173 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 1: position to make it matter, but now you have to 174 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 1: go make it matter. And I believed in a hug 175 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: after a home run that I saw the Tigers players have, 176 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: So that shows how my scouting goes back. 177 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:38,960 Speaker 2: If nothing else, they're young, motivated team just trying to 178 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:39,680 Speaker 2: prove stuff. 179 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:41,320 Speaker 1: Not a team you like to run into it this 180 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,840 Speaker 1: time of year. And I think they did this ago 181 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 1: under Hinch. I think they did the same exact thing. 182 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:50,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think they did it to a lesser extreme 183 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 2: last year because remember all last season work, they were 184 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 2: sneaky second place in the Central oh. 185 00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 1: Overall, they disappointed this year, but they're back your Minnesota Twins. 186 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 1: Brooks Lee, one of their top prospects, if not top prospect, 187 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 1: comes back for them, and it's manning some hot corner 188 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 1: Trevor Pluftelonous Royce Lewis is at second to not see 189 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 1: that coming. Also, this is just a fun last for 190 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 1: the past for Al East fans and early reliever draft 191 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 1: Diego Castillo thirty years old now used to have some 192 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 1: of the grossest stuff in the game. Sink er slider, 193 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 1: my god. Now the Kansas City Royals are hilarious in 194 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:37,960 Speaker 1: their own right because they just brought in all the 195 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:43,080 Speaker 1: old men, Tommy fam Robbie Grossman, and Julie Guriel. However 196 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: you want to label them, it needs to be a 197 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 1: pitcher and a hitter, So it doesn't translate perfectly for 198 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: this exercise, but that's their story right now. Like you 199 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: can talk about your twenty eight man roster all you want, 200 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 1: but the fact that they just went out and they 201 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,600 Speaker 1: brought in these guys. They also called up Alec marsh 202 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:06,840 Speaker 1: so a familiar arm well I think pitched in that 203 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 1: game as well. So they are I said it on 204 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 1: Talking Baseball, where they're going to look up in a 205 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 1: couple of weeks and be like that was pretty cool. Man. 206 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 1: The Royals littered this roster with veterans, hoping it would 207 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: mean something, hoping to get pro at bats and knowing 208 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:28,680 Speaker 1: what you're kind of gonna get day in, day out 209 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 1: from your Tommy Fans, your Julie Gariel's, your Robbie Grossman's, 210 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 1: or we're gonna look back in a couple of weeks 211 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,720 Speaker 1: and be like, damn, that Viny Pass Quentino injury was 212 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 1: near impossible to overcome. And man, some of these guys 213 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 1: they were rolling out. I'm rooting Royals. It's a lot 214 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 1: of veterans. I think veterans in baseball should still matter, 215 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 1: So I'm rooting for that Chicago White Sox Pass. I 216 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:58,840 Speaker 1: was hoping that there would be like a prospect that 217 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 1: I'd be like, oh, I think they called up a 218 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 1: pitcher technically that might have been in the Dylan cease trade, 219 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 1: but didn't get me. Jazzy and they're the worst team ever, 220 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:14,200 Speaker 1: so hard pass in Houston. It was a little bit 221 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,440 Speaker 1: of a series event. They called up a third string 222 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 1: catcher because that's all they need who cares, and then 223 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 1: they activated Chas McCormick because I think Jake Myers went 224 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 1: on the Paterni list. So just a reminder, Chas McCormick, 225 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 1: who had an ops in the mid eights last year 226 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:37,839 Speaker 1: sent down, called backup and Forrest Whitley for again, I'm 227 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 1: not gonna say baseball Nerds former top prospect has had 228 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 1: a ton of injuries, a slew of injuries. If you will, 229 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 1: let me check the minor league stats just to see 230 00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 1: if he's got a chance to be Astro's freak show. 231 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 1: In twenty nineteen, Baseball America had him as the number 232 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 1: five prospect in baseball. It hasn't panned out. It looks 233 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 1: like in Triple A this year twenty nine innings, forty strikeouts. 234 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 1: That's PCL Baby sugar Land, Kelsey Wingersland. Yeah, they here's 235 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 1: for us Whitley, here's Hector Narris Houston set up. If 236 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 1: you haven't heard, go check it out. So I thought 237 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 1: that was half fun. US Seattle one of their bullpen 238 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 1: arms that's been riding the bus. Luis Eirius. Another little 239 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: flash from the past. Forget that the Mariners offseason slash 240 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 1: Mariners trade generator for a while was just bringing in 241 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 1: can you play second and third and get hot utility 242 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 1: infielders that don't strike out? It's working, It's not Texas. 243 00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 1: This was fun because and again there's a little bit 244 00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 1: of unofficial here we think, but it seems like Jack 245 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 1: Lyder is gonna get the call and put in the 246 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: rotation for the last month of the season. So that's exciting. 247 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 1: Familiar last name first round pick Vandy Godor is excited 248 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 1: to see that. Justin Foscu another like actual prospect for them. 249 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 1: So if you're the Texas Rangers a season that's falling 250 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: off a bit, you'll get to see a little bit 251 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 1: of young talent. My beautiful Los Angeles Angels running a 252 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:32,040 Speaker 1: crazy team out there right now, so many young pitchers. 253 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: The first ever Italian out of the Gay who they 254 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 1: got from the Phills and is an actual pitching prospect. 255 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 1: They just called up their youngest pitcher to get a 256 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:45,239 Speaker 1: win an Angel's history twenty years old. Good for you 257 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 1: know who they called up, Bebes. This is This is 258 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 1: when the click game got really fun for me. Read 259 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 1: Debt mers. Oh yes, baseball comes at you. Fast Man 260 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,440 Speaker 1: sent down earlier. This year, he's back with the big 261 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 1: boy club. There's an argument he could have been one 262 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 1: of the top young pitchers in baseball if he put 263 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 1: it together. Another nice season this year, comes at your fest. 264 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 1: Oakland was a little disappointed. Nothing nothing, nothing in the 265 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: National League. We'll start out east again. I went alphabetical. 266 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 1: I didn't really though. Philly called a Cody Clemens. Who 267 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: Cody Clemens during Philly's injury times this year. He had 268 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 1: a hot stretch, so that's another weapon for them. And 269 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:40,120 Speaker 1: then another pitcher Atlanta calls up Eli White, who's been 270 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: up and down for them. Good speed, versatile John Brebia. 271 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,760 Speaker 1: Picture him in a Giant's UNI, but he's thrown some 272 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 1: major league innings. Let's see if there's some Braves, devil 273 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 1: magic there, Mets. Nothing too exciting except young Alex Young 274 00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 1: just used to like saying that washing Ten fun story. 275 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 1: Nothing too impactful. I mean, they already just called up 276 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 1: Dylan Cruz, so like you could plump that in. Darren 277 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,919 Speaker 1: Baker was technically part of it. Dusty Baker's kid, one 278 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 1: of the fun moments of the weekend, got a hit 279 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 1: in his first at bat. We love that, Marlins. Another 280 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:22,400 Speaker 1: catcher and a relievers unexciting as it could be. Come on, Marlins, 281 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 1: give me just a little more Milwaukee a fun click. 282 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 1: Go check out where the Brewers are in the standings. 283 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:38,160 Speaker 1: The Milwaukee Brewers have the best run differential in all 284 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 1: of baseball one thirty three. That's better than the Dodgers. 285 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 1: That's better than the Phillies. That's better than the New 286 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 1: York Yankees, who are in second place with one twenty one. Surprisingly, 287 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 1: and what did the Brewers do. They activated DL Hall, 288 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:57,360 Speaker 1: who gave them seven innings of shutout ball. Rhyme. Uh, 289 00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,199 Speaker 1: he was the big piece or he was spoke used 290 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,200 Speaker 1: to be the big piece in the Corbyn Burns trade. 291 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 1: Joey Ortiz has been great for them. They got another 292 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:08,359 Speaker 1: pick in that too. DL Hall had been kind of 293 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 1: met It looked like his fastball ticked up a little 294 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 1: bit in that start. Something to track, especially for Brewers 295 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 1: fans as they're going to figure out their rotation and 296 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 1: bullpen the rest of the way. If D. L. Hall 297 00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 1: comes down the stretch like he did. In a reminder, 298 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:25,400 Speaker 1: he was really good with the Orioles out of the bullpen, 299 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,400 Speaker 1: so I wouldn't be surprised. I guess if he settles 300 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,760 Speaker 1: in out there, that might be a safer option than 301 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:33,680 Speaker 1: some of their starters. But if he shoves down the stretch, 302 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 1: there's playoff innings to be had in Milwaukee, and they've 303 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 1: still got a really good shot to get the one 304 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:44,199 Speaker 1: or the two seed, which everyone just assumed they'd be 305 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 1: penciled in into three because it's Phillies and Dodgers. One 306 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:52,480 Speaker 1: slip up, the Brewers are going to be there, and then, 307 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,879 Speaker 1: just out of hilarity, the other guy they called up 308 00:18:55,920 --> 00:19:01,919 Speaker 1: is Brewer Hicking. The Brewers called up a brewer. The 309 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,360 Speaker 1: last name kind of helps too, if we're being honest. 310 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 1: Brewer Hicking. Mm, that's a Milwaukee name, pretty perfect name. 311 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 1: So I don't know if you believe in magic, look 312 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 1: at that. The Clicks continued to get fun in the 313 00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:25,959 Speaker 1: NL Central, the Chicago Cubs nine and one beating up 314 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 1: on bad teams. More bad teams coming, Watch out for 315 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 1: your Cubbies. They called up Jordan Wicks, who's starter for them, 316 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:41,640 Speaker 1: pitched lined up, so again like more than I guess, 317 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:43,800 Speaker 1: we're like two thirds three quarters of the way through 318 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:52,120 Speaker 1: this Wicks deal, Hall Debt Mers. Who else did I have? 319 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 1: Cobb zach lttel Eflyn Like, that's six teams that lined 320 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:04,640 Speaker 1: up basically another starting pitcher for their twenty seventh, twenty 321 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:06,800 Speaker 1: eighth man, which I don't know. I guess I was 322 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 1: just a little surprised to see that. 323 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:11,200 Speaker 2: He feels like just like a big number. But I 324 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:14,680 Speaker 2: suppose you knew it would be in this four day window. 325 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:19,439 Speaker 2: Why wouldn't you do the math? But it's funny. 326 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:20,960 Speaker 1: I guess if you've got a guy kind of in 327 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,159 Speaker 1: that timeline, you just do it there. I don't know 328 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 1: was interested Wicks comes up? Haven't seen us in the 329 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 1: same room. Nick Madrigal. So again, cubbies who are on 330 00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: this kind of magic run right now, trying to make 331 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,680 Speaker 1: it matter. They just called up two MLB guys. They 332 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 1: have boosted their roster. Madrigal. 333 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 2: There's a chance he's fake news. I think they graduated 334 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:46,680 Speaker 2: to put him on the sixty day. 335 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 1: No, no, he might he might still be hurt unclear, 336 00:20:53,200 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 1: but fun name recalled from the miners. Yeah, I be right, then, 337 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,879 Speaker 1: who would it be? It's not Thomas Nedo released They did. 338 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: They did kind of the same thing to Nito in 339 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:12,879 Speaker 1: a different fashion, Miles Master, Bony Armstrong, and they hadn't 340 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 1: they They shuffled the last few days. Pittsburgh Pirates. Again, 341 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 1: this is some loose math here, but it's kind of 342 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 1: cutching Olderman. Olderman has been a great holds guy for them. 343 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:26,920 Speaker 1: He comes off the aisle, cutched it a day or 344 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,879 Speaker 1: two earlier. But I think that's kind of essentially how 345 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 1: it worked out for them, and they don't matter anymore. Still, 346 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 1: match you, Pirates trade for Brent Rooker, you kind of 347 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:40,760 Speaker 1: blew it. Not gonna do that. I don't know what 348 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 1: was offered. I don't know what the a's we're asking for, 349 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,680 Speaker 1: but god, Brent Rooker. Go check out the season stats. 350 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:54,680 Speaker 1: Saint Louis called up Michael Ciani and Steven Mattz. Hello, 351 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 1: oh yeah, so a couple couple big leaguers there, at 352 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 1: least Cardinals. Man, that was a It was a funky 353 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 1: watch this weekend with the Yankees. I don't know if 354 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 1: that team has an identity. It's kind of weird baseball 355 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,840 Speaker 1: on both sides. Red's called up Jake frail in a pitcher. 356 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: Reds not not to harp on the Pirates. 357 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 2: But we haven't we haven't talked in full about O'Neil 358 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:26,040 Speaker 2: Cruz moving to center like anywhere. 359 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 1: But have you seen who has slotted into shortstop in 360 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:35,920 Speaker 1: his stead? Uh? Pirates shortstop is the question? Mm hmm 361 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 1: jj Hardy Isaiah Kiner full Oh, I did see that 362 00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 1: at least the last six starts there. Damn. Proud of 363 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 1: my guy, put it together. Love him. At third. Jake Failing, 364 00:22:56,400 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 1: a pitcher, said that, uh, which brings us out west. 365 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:04,639 Speaker 1: I'm gonna start with my snakes because I did click 366 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 1: that in alphabetical order, and whatever exercise doesn't change because 367 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:12,880 Speaker 1: of it. Nothing too crazy. I was happy they called 368 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 1: up Jorge Barosa, my five to six outfielder. Yeah, enslaves 369 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:23,359 Speaker 1: secone pitcher who's been on and off the MLB roster 370 00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:25,120 Speaker 1: for them. So just a little bit of depth there 371 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:30,199 Speaker 1: because they're still rolling by the way, go check that out, Uh, 372 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:34,399 Speaker 1: Dodgers and embarrassments of riches mode. And I'm assuming this 373 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:36,679 Speaker 1: was because he was the only guy with options, and 374 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:38,920 Speaker 1: I know he slowed down a lot. They technically called 375 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:45,399 Speaker 1: up Andy piz Oh, a guy that's been there center 376 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:50,879 Speaker 1: fielder a lot of the year. I mean not doing this. 377 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,440 Speaker 1: These are two rosters that should not be compared right now. 378 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:58,439 Speaker 1: But the Dodgers go Compare the Dodgers roster and the 379 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 1: Blue Jays roster. I named you everyone on the Blue Jays. 380 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:11,399 Speaker 1: This this is everyone. It's the Dodgers active roster, Shoho, Tani, 381 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 1: Mookie Bets, Freddie Freeman, Teoscar Hernandez, Gavin Lux, Will Smith, 382 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 1: Max Muntsey, Tommy Edmund, Miggy Rowe with a bench of 383 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 1: Austin Barnes who has been there forever now, keyk Hernandez, 384 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:29,680 Speaker 1: who's been around forever now, Chris Taylor been around forever now, 385 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 1: Kevin Kiermier been around forever now. Andy pa has probably 386 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:37,960 Speaker 1: sent down before that because he had options, so he's 387 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 1: back up. Dodgers are pretty wild. They also called up 388 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 1: my guy, Justin Robleski. Well, I think he pitched a 389 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 1: little bit. Uh Man Kershaw getting hurt again. Rotation still 390 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 1: looks okay, but I don't know. They need they need 391 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:01,359 Speaker 1: some things to click. Pitching wise, I think hitting wise, 392 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 1: I think they're in the good place. Get back to 393 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 1: my page, San Diego. This was a fun click. The Padres, 394 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 1: who have basically been toe to toe with Arizona and 395 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:20,159 Speaker 1: a couple other teams as the best team in baseball 396 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 1: and San Diego. You never know, right, are they gonna 397 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:27,239 Speaker 1: call up some top prospect? Call up Ethan Sallas, that 398 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 1: fourteen year old catcher, he's seventeen. They called up a 399 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 1: different catcher, former All Star Game MVP Elias dis Rockies. 400 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 1: I hate you. You could have traded him last year 401 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,480 Speaker 1: as the All Star Game MVP, a catcher who had 402 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 1: a positive OPS plus for a year and a half. 403 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:53,600 Speaker 2: Nothing could have gotten actually something last year, could have 404 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 2: gotten literally something this year, and you just like cut them. 405 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,520 Speaker 1: What could they have? No, never mind, I'm not gonna 406 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 1: do that. They called them, It wouldn't have been anything crazy. 407 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:10,399 Speaker 1: But they called up a pitcher too, Beebes, I've got 408 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 1: I've got some names in front of me, Woy, Wandy Peralta, 409 00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:19,639 Speaker 1: a guy that won over the hearts of Yankee fans, 410 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 1: uh injured and had him been great with San Diego. 411 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 1: But I'll tell you what, in this world of baseball 412 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 1: we live in, if Wandy Parralta goes out there and 413 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 1: has a September ten outings, one orn run, which I've 414 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 1: seen him do before, Wandy Parralta will be pitching in 415 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:44,199 Speaker 1: big innings this October. I've seen him some one season 416 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 1: he was the Yankees, like righty got right, he's out 417 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,480 Speaker 1: because he had a wipeout change up. There's one year 418 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 1: he was gross against lefties. If he finds either of those, 419 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:57,159 Speaker 1: he'll be a weapon for San Diego. Uh. If not, 420 00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 1: they have a couple other weapons too. Things have been 421 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 1: fun in San Diego, Colorado. No. San Francisco was kind 422 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 1: of the same. Tristan Beck technically would fall under starting 423 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 1: pitcher for this year. Who they lined up for this date? 424 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:19,159 Speaker 1: And they did. He'd been out for a while so 425 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,920 Speaker 1: and then Blake Sable, who if you remember Trevor Pluf 426 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 1: played catch on the beach with and Blake Sable was like, 427 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 1: I'm a major leaguer and Trevor's like, all right, dude, 428 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:36,399 Speaker 1: how'd that happen? Not enough people talk about that. What 429 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:41,720 Speaker 1: do we get out of that exercise? Introduced to some players? Uh? 430 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:43,639 Speaker 1: And yeah, I just thought it was funny. At this 431 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,639 Speaker 1: time of year, obviously, the contenders matter more than the 432 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 1: other teams. You know, a couple of fun young ones 433 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:52,440 Speaker 1: out there between Texas and you know, the Nats kind 434 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:57,119 Speaker 1: of called up their fun young guys earlier, but seeing 435 00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 1: how a lot of I was shocked at how many 436 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 1: MLB pitchers line them up for this date, which maybe 437 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 1: that's the learning from this exercise that teams are just 438 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:09,520 Speaker 1: going to do that the rest of the way. If 439 00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:12,720 Speaker 1: you're going to add a body, probably gonna be someone 440 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 1: you're familiar with or is rehabbing along the way. And 441 00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 1: then yeah, I'll be interested to see, you know, Kobe Mayo, 442 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:24,879 Speaker 1: if Baltimore is hunting for offense, is he gonna have 443 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:26,879 Speaker 1: a lane at all to get enough at bats to 444 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:31,240 Speaker 1: become an impact guy for them? Mansarto in Cleveland. I mean, 445 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:34,160 Speaker 1: that's a good way to start a story if you're 446 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 1: gonna do that. The whole NL Central kind of called 447 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:42,240 Speaker 1: impact guys, and then San Diego was a lot of 448 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 1: fun there, Like I don't I don't know how their 449 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 1: catcher reps are going. I could ask Ryan Cohen or 450 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 1: maybe you're gonna tell me in the comments. And sometimes 451 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 1: in baseball we get a little too connected to the 452 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: names we're familiar with when baseball does move pretty quickly 453 00:28:57,680 --> 00:28:59,600 Speaker 1: and you need to get ready for the next guy. 454 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 1: Higgy Campusano and Elias dis We'll get that sound off below. 455 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 1: If you know someone else I should be talking about, 456 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,240 Speaker 1: or if there's a Dominga situation on your team, someone 457 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: that you're like, how have we not called this guy up? 458 00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: Your team's controversial choice. Maybe you're looking to burn a 459 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 1: picture too before that, Yeah, two extra roster spots. Yeah, 460 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 1: it's definitely like kind of a I don't think I like. 461 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 2: This solution to the September columns, and they were polarizing before, 462 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 2: like forty active guys was probably too many, too much, 463 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 2: but like adding one picture, one hit, or like the 464 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 2: point of it. 465 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 1: Is like prospects to get a chance at the end 466 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 1: of the year. Yeah, it gets tricky because like the 467 00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 1: reason they like we did it, like we just went through. 468 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 1: Every team has different needs at this point, Like the 469 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 1: Blue Jays would just call up another young cat to 470 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 1: duke it out, or I think they like dfad Paolo Espino, 471 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:14,480 Speaker 1: who's now becoming a generational Oh my god, we need 472 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,960 Speaker 1: someone to kind of throw MLB innings. Give us three 473 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 1: innings and fourign runs and we'll be happy. It's a 474 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 1: it's weird. 475 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 2: Like also, like the rookie rules that are the reason 476 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 2: the Yankees didn't call up Domingos because you're supposed to 477 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 2: be able to call up a guy for the September 478 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 2: before and that doesn't hurt you next year, which I 479 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:40,480 Speaker 2: understand how they got there, that he has extenuating circumstances. 480 00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 2: Forty active guys is probably too many, but can't it 481 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 2: be that number of guys up? But like twenty five 482 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 2: or active or twenty six now and for starting pitchers 483 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 2: that aren't pitching, it kind of gets you to a 484 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:56,960 Speaker 2: spot like, yeah, you get too extra bullpen and an 485 00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 2: extra bench guy or something. 486 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, just tough. It's tough because people are always going 487 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 1: to try to navigate it. Like you know, there's always 488 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:07,240 Speaker 1: going to be a way to circum Pitching is the 489 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 1: trickier part at this point. And I don't know just 490 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:15,959 Speaker 1: any way that you rearrange the rules, teams will abuse it. 491 00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 1: So find it the way. Yeah, I'll be interested to 492 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 1: see if it manifests, what if it changes over the 493 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 1: next couple of years. I think baseball feels fine with it. 494 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:39,200 Speaker 1: And yeah, Andy Paie has tough. What what are weird 495 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:45,320 Speaker 1: to hear for him? Man, they have to curse is 496 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 1: a very strong word. But like remember James outman. Yeah, 497 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 1: Andy Pie has kind of went nuts and now he's 498 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 1: he's slowed down significantly. They are a team that will 499 00:31:56,000 --> 00:32:04,680 Speaker 1: ride the wave. Let's see just a little Jakey around 500 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:08,800 Speaker 1: the horn from this weekend because it got to tune 501 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:11,920 Speaker 1: into a little bit of college football. First weekend's a 502 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:15,120 Speaker 1: fun one. And I'll reverse engineer because the game I 503 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 1: watched the most was LSU USC last night. God, it's 504 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 1: tough because I try to draw the line when my 505 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 1: friends are just being rude to be rude. Not a 506 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 1: lot of Brian Kelly fans in my group chat. I'll 507 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 1: say that it always felt like kind of a weird 508 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 1: fit with LSU because he didn't seem like an LSU guy. 509 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:43,120 Speaker 1: That being said, they were a player two from winning 510 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 1: this game, and they kind of had control of this 511 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:49,720 Speaker 1: game going into the third quarter. It was cool to 512 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:53,200 Speaker 1: see in the broadcast was kinda I don't want to 513 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 1: say the broadcast was going too hard on it, but 514 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 1: it was unique in today's day and age of college football. 515 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 1: Uh LSU's quarterback Garrett Nussmyer tough last name, USC's quarterback. 516 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:13,240 Speaker 1: This feels like a college football player generation player generator 517 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 1: Miller Moss Miller Moss versus Garrett Nussmyer. Both of these 518 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 1: quarterbacks had like kind of done it the old school 519 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 1: college way. They got recruited sat a year, they got 520 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:36,640 Speaker 1: replaced Caleb Williams and Jaden Daniels. Your you're one in 521 00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 1: three picks in the draft, transferred in, got the starting job, 522 00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:45,920 Speaker 1: and a lot of guys these days you have to 523 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:48,719 Speaker 1: look at other opportunities. Who knows what I you know, 524 00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 1: Miller Moss, you want to be the head quarterback at Virginia, 525 00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 1: It's yours if you want it. Who knows what opportunities 526 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:57,920 Speaker 1: these guys actually had on the table. They both played 527 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:04,240 Speaker 1: pretty well first game of the year, and yeah, us 528 00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 1: he just made the winning plays down the end. I 529 00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 1: know that's a cop out. The final play. USC's USC's 530 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:15,240 Speaker 1: star receiver, and maybe maybe that would be the headline, 531 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:19,319 Speaker 1: like stars of the weekend that emerge. Kyen Hudson not 532 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,880 Speaker 1: crazy stats, but if you look at the game ceiling 533 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:28,479 Speaker 1: catch he made, it's like bobble juggle snag. The guy 534 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:32,520 Speaker 1: the safety came over helmet to helmet, ejected from the game. 535 00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:35,680 Speaker 1: That's how Baddie got him. Still made the catch to 536 00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:39,719 Speaker 1: win it. So that was pretty powerful stuff. Let's see. 537 00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:42,279 Speaker 1: I have a weak spot for USC have always liked 538 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:46,520 Speaker 1: them without having a college football team. Reggie Bush, Matt Lioner. 539 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 1: Even before that, Carson Palmer people forget liked him a lot. 540 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:54,239 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll kind of read my engine for a little bit. 541 00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:59,279 Speaker 1: Expanded playoffs this year, so both teams won't necessarily be 542 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:02,360 Speaker 1: hurt by this loss. It is going to be funny 543 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:04,359 Speaker 1: to track. I'm as you guys know, I'm a big 544 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 1: Ryan Rosillo guy. He kinda dislikes where we're at with 545 00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:12,320 Speaker 1: college football because losses like this used to mean more. 546 00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 1: I want to feel it out a little more because 547 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:19,040 Speaker 1: in a way, the expanded playoffs could be great if 548 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:22,440 Speaker 1: we encourage more games like this. Like LSU knows their 549 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:26,959 Speaker 1: season isn't over where I don't know five years ago 550 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 1: more less, their season kind of would have been over. 551 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:34,319 Speaker 1: So I'm interested to see that aspect of it, and 552 00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:36,400 Speaker 1: I get the other side of it. Every game is 553 00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:39,800 Speaker 1: an elimination game. I want to see how the format feels. 554 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:43,680 Speaker 1: I would love if there be more games like this 555 00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:46,640 Speaker 1: through the year, because if you do lose it, you'll 556 00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 1: be okay. And it was good content last night. The 557 00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:53,640 Speaker 1: only game in town with the US Open, which I 558 00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 1: guess I should talk some US Open. Let me chew 559 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:02,520 Speaker 1: through a little more college football quick. What you need 560 00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:06,800 Speaker 1: to know. Georgia is really good. They're like New Bama 561 00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:09,239 Speaker 1: level good. Like if you don't know, you probably know 562 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:14,880 Speaker 1: you're listening to a sports program. But they are dominant. 563 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:18,880 Speaker 1: They beat four number fourteen ranked Clemson thirty four to three. 564 00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:25,120 Speaker 1: Ew might have the number one pick in the draft 565 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 1: with Beckett quarterback, if you're into that kind of thing. 566 00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:32,040 Speaker 1: Who did I want to talk about? Oh, there's a 567 00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:37,960 Speaker 1: really cool story. Arizona the Wildcats not known for their 568 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 1: college football history. They have a really cool quarterback wide 569 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:51,600 Speaker 1: receiver Combo Fefeeda to McMillan, T mac no offensive Fefida 570 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 1: t mak is the guy you need to know. Ten 571 00:36:56,160 --> 00:37:02,800 Speaker 1: catches for three hundred and four yards four touchdowns, Projected 572 00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:06,880 Speaker 1: to be a top ten pick. He went nuts this weekend, 573 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:09,960 Speaker 1: and I think he's gonna do that a lot of weekends. 574 00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:13,640 Speaker 1: They were high school teammates. They got recruited to Arizona together. 575 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 1: The Arizona coach was leaving and it was like, yo, 576 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,200 Speaker 1: you dudes, come with me, Like let's do the Caleb 577 00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:22,120 Speaker 1: Williams thing, and they were kind of like, we're we're good, 578 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:24,920 Speaker 1: and I think there are some other attachments to it 579 00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 1: that they're high school coach, like got elevated to an 580 00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:29,520 Speaker 1: Arizona coach now. So that was part of the reason 581 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 1: they sayed it's gonna be a fun year for Arizona 582 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 1: Wildcat football, which you don't hear that a lot. Another 583 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 1: guy that set a school record at a school that 584 00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:45,960 Speaker 1: has become very popular in college football circles, Boise State. 585 00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:52,560 Speaker 1: They had a running back Genti Junty. I'm gonna have 586 00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:57,680 Speaker 1: to work on that. Twenty carries for two sixty seven, 587 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:06,920 Speaker 1: twenty carries for two to sixty seven and six touchdowns. Yes, yes, 588 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:09,360 Speaker 1: and I think they've got a fun one coming up. 589 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:12,640 Speaker 1: Boise State at Oregon, Oregon slipped up a little bit 590 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:15,319 Speaker 1: bit against Iowa twenty four to fourteen while every other 591 00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 1: team was getting blown out. So that might be a 592 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:21,080 Speaker 1: good late night watch this weekend. God, it's gonna be 593 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,640 Speaker 1: a big sports weekend. Let me see if I have 594 00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:30,000 Speaker 1: any other college football notes. Scrolling the scoreboard Utah, No, 595 00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 1: Missouri's got a really good wide receiver. That's cool. The 596 00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:37,719 Speaker 1: Ohio State roll dam tied. Ole Miss puts up a 597 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:42,480 Speaker 1: seventy six burger. Penn State beat West Virginia. People thought 598 00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 1: West Virginia might keep that closer. They did not. Michigan's 599 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 1: first game with their new coach, they win thirty to 600 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:51,799 Speaker 1: ten over Fresno, which compared to some of the other blowouts, 601 00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:57,080 Speaker 1: isn't as blowyoudy what Miami. Everyone wants the U to 602 00:38:57,160 --> 00:38:59,840 Speaker 1: be back. They've got a chance this year. Their quarterback 603 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:04,200 Speaker 1: ward he's a stud. All of my respect to college football. 604 00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:07,040 Speaker 1: People put him on the radar. They bawled up against 605 00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:11,320 Speaker 1: the Florida Gators in the swamp forty one to seventeen. 606 00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:16,279 Speaker 1: Might not be Florida's best team this year. NFL Week 607 00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:19,839 Speaker 1: is here My closing remarks. Went to the US Open 608 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:24,239 Speaker 1: this weekend tennis supposed to be a New York right 609 00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:29,160 Speaker 1: of passage bucket list type event and it kind of is. 610 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:34,920 Speaker 1: Had a good time. Went for the night session. Didn't 611 00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:37,839 Speaker 1: know whether to get night or day tickets. Wasn't really sure. 612 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:42,279 Speaker 1: I went temperature wise, thought night would be safer and 613 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:45,400 Speaker 1: prime time like it's getting towards the final week of 614 00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:48,960 Speaker 1: the US Open, a little disappointing. Two of what would 615 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:51,480 Speaker 1: have been the bigger draws for Saturday night. When I 616 00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:57,799 Speaker 1: went Alcarrath, the new guy in tennis, he lost one 617 00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:01,960 Speaker 1: of the biggest upsets in like recent tennis history, so 618 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:05,360 Speaker 1: that was tough. And then Naomi Osaka, one of the 619 00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 1: more popular players, she also got upset. So those would 620 00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 1: have been like the two top draws. It's okay, got 621 00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:24,200 Speaker 1: to see medvedevs. You're twenty twenty one US Open champion. 622 00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:27,719 Speaker 1: It's a fun watch man. Like any sports, being in 623 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,240 Speaker 1: person's pretty cool, but it's fun seeing how the crowd 624 00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:33,280 Speaker 1: feeds off of a good rally or a good point 625 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:36,680 Speaker 1: or a nice shot. I feel like you don't necessarily 626 00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:39,759 Speaker 1: get that in every sport. The other thing that was 627 00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:43,040 Speaker 1: cool is that the crowd is biased, but not bias. 628 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:47,120 Speaker 1: You have back to back good points, the crowd is 629 00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:51,680 Speaker 1: on your side, You've just won them over. Medvedev is 630 00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:55,640 Speaker 1: playing some young Italian guy, Bola Bola, that's not his name, 631 00:40:57,239 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 1: but it was funny. It's funny watching that. Jess was 632 00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:02,439 Speaker 1: getting a good laugh out of that. She was like, Wow, 633 00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:05,840 Speaker 1: there's no no love, no bias here. I was like, 634 00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 1: kind of yeah. I mean, I think if we went 635 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:10,000 Speaker 1: to like a cocoa golf match or something like that. 636 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:14,160 Speaker 1: The crowd ends up going back. But Medvedev was funny 637 00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:19,160 Speaker 1: because the Italian guy was the underdog and the crowd 638 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:20,960 Speaker 1: was starting to get on his side. The Italian guy 639 00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:25,320 Speaker 1: had a little more swag, uh, stronger forehand, was grunting 640 00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:29,320 Speaker 1: more good way to win over the crowd. And so Medvedev, 641 00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,680 Speaker 1: who was consistently playing better every time he had a 642 00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:33,879 Speaker 1: good rally like he kind of looked at the crowd. 643 00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:36,759 Speaker 1: He's like, come on, like, I'm the guy. I'm the 644 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:37,680 Speaker 1: one who's won here. 645 00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:41,080 Speaker 2: Just has a history of going back and forth with 646 00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:42,400 Speaker 2: the US Open crowd. 647 00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:45,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, well no, it was. It was great. So got 648 00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:48,800 Speaker 1: got to see that. And then uh ega the number 649 00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:56,399 Speaker 1: one women's ranks Steed uh eat Pavelchenka flaw whoa six 650 00:41:56,560 --> 00:42:01,040 Speaker 1: six in straights. If I were to do it again, 651 00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:04,919 Speaker 1: So there's U and I think I will do it again. 652 00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:10,359 Speaker 1: I did enjoy my time there. The honey deuces they 653 00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:15,960 Speaker 1: were fine. A tasty alcoholic drink twenty three bucks. I mean, 654 00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:18,480 Speaker 1: if you're really looking to get your drink on, I 655 00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:20,000 Speaker 1: don't know if the honey deuce is the way you 656 00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:23,840 Speaker 1: want to go. Maybe that makes me sound like a 657 00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:27,799 Speaker 1: booze bag. You check the box, you got, you got 658 00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:31,399 Speaker 1: the honey deuce, and you know there's there's one too 659 00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:37,160 Speaker 1: many people carrying around like six cups proud whatever.

Have have fun at whatever you're doing. 661 00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:44,200 Speaker 1: Where did I I want to find that Italian guy's 662 00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:51,839 Speaker 1: name Kabbali, Flavio Cabbali. He had some swag to him, 663 00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:54,880 Speaker 1: Italian guy. We like that if I were to do 664 00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:58,480 Speaker 1: it again. The only thing we did wrong we got 665 00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:01,760 Speaker 1: there because the night shift tickets it says seven pm. 666 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:04,800 Speaker 1: So me and me and Jess were like, I don't know, 667 00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:07,400 Speaker 1: all right, so we'll get there for like six and 668 00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:11,200 Speaker 1: we'll figure it out. That was like a prime arrival 669 00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:15,759 Speaker 1: time for the night shift that there was. I don't know, 670 00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:18,480 Speaker 1: maybe it was twenty minutes where we were in like 671 00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:22,839 Speaker 1: sardine mode, like getting in the venue, getting like you know, 672 00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:26,880 Speaker 1: going through metal detector and stuff like that. That just 673 00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:30,520 Speaker 1: was an ideal. A lot of bodies cramped, not how 674 00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:34,880 Speaker 1: you want to start your day. And and I've told 675 00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:38,440 Speaker 1: this story once before, so tell it tight. First time 676 00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:39,960 Speaker 1: I went to Key West, I was expecting to go 677 00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:43,200 Speaker 1: to Key West and it'd be some yuppie town. It's not. 678 00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:47,440 Speaker 1: It's party town. It's like New Orleans, but an island 679 00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:52,719 Speaker 1: on the water. It's a mess. And the first time 680 00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,080 Speaker 1: I got there, it was like seven thirty PM, which 681 00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:57,880 Speaker 1: I like to label the witching hour because there's a 682 00:43:57,960 --> 00:43:59,880 Speaker 1: bunch of people on the street that have been drinking 683 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,279 Speaker 1: since noon. So I got to Key West and I 684 00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:05,560 Speaker 1: was like, what the hell is this? Literally looked like 685 00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:09,759 Speaker 1: walking dead or something. There was just a little bit 686 00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:11,960 Speaker 1: of that at the US Open because there's people that 687 00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:14,080 Speaker 1: had gotten there at noon and had been drinking all day. 688 00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:16,600 Speaker 1: So when we first got there, it was jam pack 689 00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:18,960 Speaker 1: and there's just a lot of people in zombie mode, 690 00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:23,239 Speaker 1: just a lot of contact, just too much walking contact 691 00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:26,920 Speaker 1: that I guess that's the thing I can't tell you. 692 00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:29,600 Speaker 1: Me and Jess were like, hey, let's find a safe 693 00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:31,640 Speaker 1: spot for a minute. I need to like breathe, And 694 00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:33,880 Speaker 1: we found a safe spot. And I won't share that 695 00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:38,160 Speaker 1: with you, but UH probably would do it again. I 696 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:42,560 Speaker 1: think if I could do it again, I would. I 697 00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:45,520 Speaker 1: would buy the early ticket. We saw a couple of 698 00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:48,040 Speaker 1: friends there that they bought the early ticket. And there's 699 00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:50,080 Speaker 1: a ton of courts there because there's so many matches 700 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:51,759 Speaker 1: going on, and they were like, yeah, we just hopped 701 00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:54,000 Speaker 1: court to court. You can bring your drink everywhere with 702 00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:56,560 Speaker 1: you. You find a court you like or is a good match, 703 00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:58,640 Speaker 1: you hang out. If you don't like the vibes there, 704 00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 1: you bail. And they were like, yeah, we just walked 705 00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:04,799 Speaker 1: around all day, got drinks, took breaks. And I was like, oh, 706 00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:06,920 Speaker 1: that sounds nice. So if I would do it again, 707 00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:09,120 Speaker 1: I think I would do that. I would probably hang 708 00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:12,479 Speaker 1: out till like when the night arrival crew gets there, 709 00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:15,520 Speaker 1: just to see it get chaotic, and then I'd probably 710 00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:18,560 Speaker 1: bail because as much as I like sports, the tennis 711 00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:21,960 Speaker 1: was good, it would be sick to see two of 712 00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:24,719 Speaker 1: the top go at it like that would be to 713 00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:27,440 Speaker 1: see this one of like the guys because they like 714 00:45:27,880 --> 00:45:31,200 Speaker 1: again the unique experience. There is the crowd kind of 715 00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:37,239 Speaker 1: rooting for both players, like if they're rooting for good tennis, 716 00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:40,200 Speaker 1: like that's the base. Sure, if you're an American at 717 00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:43,600 Speaker 1: the US, so if you're a French at the French Open, 718 00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:46,359 Speaker 1: if you're a break at Wimbledon, like yes, there's gonna 719 00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:48,560 Speaker 1: be a little bit of that or how just popular 720 00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:52,360 Speaker 1: famous you are. But the crowd almost wants to be 721 00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:54,640 Speaker 1: one over, and the way you do that is with 722 00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:58,480 Speaker 1: good tennis or emotion, which was kind of cool. So 723 00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:03,360 Speaker 1: a fun sports weekend, Labor Day weekend. What's that, Beams, 724 00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:06,319 Speaker 1: I see a little smile there. Two part US Open Storry. 725 00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:08,320 Speaker 1: I watched a little a little bit of the Medvedev 726 00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:09,520 Speaker 1: and it's kind of a weird broadcast. 727 00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:11,640 Speaker 2: The way they do like the pre match interview and 728 00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:13,040 Speaker 2: then they do like the walk out thing. 729 00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:14,640 Speaker 1: It's just shot kind of weird. 730 00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:18,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, uh, I don't know if that's how they normally 731 00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:19,920 Speaker 2: do it, but I hadn't noticed it before. 732 00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:23,840 Speaker 1: Uh, and I but a was as you said what 733 00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:24,439 Speaker 1: you just said. 734 00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:27,000 Speaker 2: I remember that Medvedev walked off his interviews like, oh, 735 00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:29,520 Speaker 2: but play some beautiful tennis for you, And I was like, yeah, 736 00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:30,200 Speaker 2: that's nice. 737 00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:33,880 Speaker 1: That's kind of the goal he uh he played his 738 00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:39,239 Speaker 1: Russian former champion card. Well you kind of like not 739 00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:41,960 Speaker 1: a ton of emotion, but like guys like I'm a 740 00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:46,200 Speaker 1: guy that's not a guy like basically Medvedev, every time 741 00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:48,400 Speaker 1: he scored a point, he was almost doing like a 742 00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:53,560 Speaker 1: uh like, guys, choose the winning side. I am the best, 743 00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:58,080 Speaker 1: I'm going to win this that's fun. He's nice, but 744 00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:02,080 Speaker 1: like guys, it's it's me.
