1
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 1: What's up, Mets fans back here for episode number twenty

2
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:24,759
Speaker 1: five of the Mets Up Podcast. I'm your co host

3
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 1: draffneck Mark Mark Luino here with James Sheiano. Jeter had

4
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:32,400
Speaker 1: no range always talking Mets baseball, especially after every single series.

5
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 1: We just wrapped one up against the Washington Nationals four

6
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:38,199
Speaker 1: game series in DC, and to say did not go

7
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 1: the way we expected, I think would be a bit

8
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 1: of an understatement. The Mets came out four game series,

9
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:45,760
Speaker 1: won one game and it was in a doubleheader that

10
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:48,559
Speaker 1: was pretty much carried by Francisco Lindor. So we have

11
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 1: a lot to talk about here in today's episode. Of course,

12
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:52,239
Speaker 1: you guys know, I gotta give a little plug here

19
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 1: like I feel like there's no other way to say it,

20
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:14,039
Speaker 1: but it was a super disappointing weekend because we had

21
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 1: the opportunity to really make some damage in DC almost

22
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 1: put the Nationals completely out of it at this point,

23
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: I feel like and the Mets did the opposite.

24
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely the Nationals. We just watched the Nationals revive

25
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 2: their entire season, and I'm not gonna say that we

26
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 2: were super optimistic heading into this series anyway. Like the

27
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 2: ground wasn't pitching, Marcus Stroman wasn't pitching, Like right there

28
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 2: off the bat, you're not. You're missing your two best stars.

29
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 2: Pitching death isn't really where it needs to be anyway.

30
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 2: We're still just like right on the fringe of getting

31
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 2: most of our starting position players back. But this is

32
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 2: still much worse than I thought was going to happen.

33
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just I didn't expect three of four to

34
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 1: be taken from us in the way that it was.

35
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 1: The offense just refused to show up. It was literally

36
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,120
Speaker 1: Lindor and that was kind of it. I know p

37
00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 1: did a home run today in Game four, but I mean,

38
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: I mean, probably just pulls us into Game four right here.

39
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: We didn't get the great performance of usual from Taiwan,

40
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:07,559
Speaker 1: but the offense didn't help either.

41
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:12,360
Speaker 2: No, him not being sharp shouldn't have made this game

42
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 2: non competitive direct for us. On competitive for us. It's

43
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 2: the word they've been using a lot in this podcast

44
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 2: with improper grammar. But that's okay. We have to be

45
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 2: able to pick a guy like Taiwan up even without

46
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,519
Speaker 2: his best start, his best stuff. Even as his velocity

47
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 2: was down across the board, he was still at least

48
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 2: mildly effective, Like he got us into the sixth inning.

49
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,119
Speaker 2: Nationals were mostly off the board. Besides for Kyle Bucking Schwarber,

50
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 2: piece of shit. It's just like he's officially one of

51
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 2: the rat focks.

52
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 1: I'm happy to add.

53
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 2: Him to the list. Taiwan's been leaning on his slyther

54
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 2: all year. It got crushed today. The two seamer that

55
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 2: we saw on Tuesday was not a part of the

56
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 2: game plan as much. Today. It just wasn't clean, but

57
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 2: it was fine, Like he pitched well enough for a

58
00:02:57,720 --> 00:02:58,640
Speaker 2: team to win a game.

59
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I felt like he had to become that like

60
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: pitch to contact kind of guy. Today it just seemed

61
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 1: like they were taking good swings, never were particularly fooled.

62
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,959
Speaker 1: I know that the final box score doesn't look fantastic,

63
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 1: but he really did scrape together a start that shouldn't

64
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 1: have lost the Mets of the game if they had

65
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,240
Speaker 1: any sort of capable offense today. But it's like this

66
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 1: series in particular made us you know, we were all

67
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 1: about the bench mob. We were hyping them up, we

68
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 1: were super excited. It feels like this series was a

69
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 1: real sign that, like, we need to get our guys

70
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: back soon because it feels like guys like Parazza and

71
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 1: all these other dudes are starting to get figured out

72
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: a little bit.

73
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely spent like Parazza, McKinney, Nido have we seen

74
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 2: struggled tremendously over the last month. I think the bench

75
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 2: mob was really fun. It was because they were on

76
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 2: the bench. Yes, that's a big part of what made

77
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 2: that bench mob so special. If they had some energy,

78
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 2: some vibrant saying, come off the bench, light a spark,

79
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 2: and it really proved this series that those guys just

80
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 2: aren't starting caliber players, and we knew that they weren't

81
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 2: signed to be that these are not the Wilpon era Mets.

82
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 2: Kevin Puler was not signed to be your starting centerfielder,

83
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 2: was not sign to be your starting second basement. Jonathan

84
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 2: vi Alwa was not signed to be your starting third

85
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 2: basement that is not the roles that these guys were

86
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 2: envision It's not the roles that these guys are going

87
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 2: to have even in one week's time. So Mets fans,

88
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 2: while we took some lumps this series and we were

89
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,160
Speaker 2: a little bit exposed for the roster that we currently have,

90
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,480
Speaker 2: I don't think this is the roster that we should

91
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 2: be judged on. And we've been saying that time and

92
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 2: time again over the last month. The way we have

93
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 2: kept our head above water without Conford, though, without McNeil,

94
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 2: without Nimo, JD JD. I don't even remember JD and

95
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,280
Speaker 2: there hasn't been one word about JD Davis. I wanted JD.

96
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 2: Davis to come out of Doug guys so badly today

97
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,360
Speaker 2: against Patrick Corbin with men on it just didn't have to.

98
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 1: Owns Patrick Corbin like we saw. Nimo I think got

99
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: into a game today and Syrahcuse against Davey Garcia got

100
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 1: a nice single. I saw McNeil should be coming back.

101
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 1: I think tomorrow Monday, if you guys are listening.

102
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 2: To like tomorrow, it also was Friday, then it was Sunday,

103
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:51,280
Speaker 2: and now it's mine.

104
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,160
Speaker 1: Yes, I feel like that's just more so like they

105
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 1: were worried about the double header stuff. Who Conforido? We said,

106
00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 1: they said would be a week after McNeil, right.

107
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:01,839
Speaker 2: But this seems like it's quicker. It seems like he

108
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 2: will be ready.

109
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:04,960
Speaker 1: But yet the next week, which these reinforcements could come

110
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:06,600
Speaker 1: quicker right now with the way the offense has been.

111
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 2: But the craziest part about today's game was that if

112
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 2: Kylee Schwarber wasn't the greatest player of all time, we

113
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 2: would have been.

114
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 1: Very in And I mean, I can't even believe Davey

115
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 1: Martinez pulled him from the game. He had three homers

116
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 1: and he pulled him for defense in a game where

117
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 1: you didn't really need to do that. The Mets were

118
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 1: never really like dangerous in this game. At felt like,

119
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,279
Speaker 1: guess they had guys on base and then some spots,

120
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,160
Speaker 1: but it just didn't feel like the Mets were ever

121
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 1: really making that rally, which is so like not uncharacteristic of.

122
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,640
Speaker 2: This team, especially against the National's bullpen that has been

123
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 2: susceptible at times this year, like because we didn't get

124
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 2: near Tanner Rainey or brad Hand's entire series.

125
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,360
Speaker 1: And brad Hand even today, like watching the at bats

126
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 1: like McCann had a horrible at bat, Pete had a

127
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 1: horrible at bat. They just were very non competitive at bats,

128
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 1: where like pitches down the middle and our guys are late.

129
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 1: We've just something we talked about earlier in the season

130
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,599
Speaker 1: where it seems like we don't take advantage of mistakes.

131
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 1: And when this team was getting hot in and the

132
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 1: Padres and the Cubs and all these teams, we were

133
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 1: jumping on mistakes. But I felt like this series in particular,

134
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,920
Speaker 1: nobody was particularly like sharp at all.

135
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 2: I kind of saw for the first time this series

136
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 2: that the Mets are a much different team at home

137
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 2: compared to on the road. Like it's very clear that

138
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 2: this team plays a lot of emotion and pulls a

139
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 2: ton from the Mets faithful in Queens.

140
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 1: Which I feel like we also got a little bit

141
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 1: of that last year too, with guys like Pete and

142
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 1: all those having like down years per se. But like

143
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 1: that also had to be with like they they live

144
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 1: off this, these fans, they love playing in front of

145
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,160
Speaker 1: the home field. That's something that you got to get over.

146
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 1: Though A's the same time, like that's not a legitimate

147
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 1: excuse to lose games on the road.

148
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure, and we will see if that's actually

149
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 2: a real thing over these next day games this week,

150
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 2: which I don't even I don't. I don't really have

151
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 2: much more to say about this game at all. Like

152
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,840
Speaker 2: just Taiwan wasn't sharp, got hit hard? Whatever?

153
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, shore Bird, Like no, let's let's move to the

154
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:57,719
Speaker 1: start of the series now. Game one, we had Joey Lukes,

155
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 1: Joey Fuego going up against Eric Fetti and in your head,

156
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 1: that's a game, you go, there are gonna be a

157
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,279
Speaker 1: lot of runs scored by both teams. This is not

158
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 1: gonna be a pictures duel, and we had the absolute opposite.

159
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 1: It was, in fact a pitcher's duel, which is crazy

160
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 1: to say. With those two guys on the mount.

161
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 2: It was a picture's duel. But like neither of them

162
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 2: were like world beaters. Like both teams are putting lots

163
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 2: of hard hit balls in play repeatedly. Lind Flair, Artisco

164
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 2: Indor himself, on the eve of his offensive explosion, put

165
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 2: two balls in play above one hundred four miles an hour.

166
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 2: The Mets as a team had ten hard hit balls.

167
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 2: In general. It was like a mystical event that they

168
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 2: could not find one run everything was finding gloves.

169
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:36,760
Speaker 1: Everything was finding gloves, and it felt like there were

170
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 1: just so many warning track hits too, Like even Drury

171
00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 1: late in that game he got in the air and

172
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 1: I hate that Washington Nationals broadcast camera because everything looks

173
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: like it's crushed and I'm like, oh my god, Drury

174
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 1: does it and it's like caught out the warring track.

175
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh my god. Man, Like again, we're just short.

176
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 2: This game was weird, like foreshadowing event for how the

177
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 2: rest of the series is going to go. The fact

178
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,680
Speaker 2: that we couldn't even put together any semblance of a

179
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 2: rally after the middle of the game. We didn't even

180
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 2: have a hit after the fifth.

181
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:05,520
Speaker 1: That's bad. That's so bad.

182
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 2: It's Eric Fetty in the National's ballpen, Like are you

183
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 2: fucking kidding?

184
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 1: Eric Setty's just not very good. And I know, like

185
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,560
Speaker 1: his last two starts one against the Mets and I

186
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 1: don't know who they made one against.

187
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 2: Before this whole season, he's been better than he ever

188
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 2: has been. Like his k rate is like actually around

189
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 2: twenty five percent, which for him is a massive.

190
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 1: That's like what like league average is about.

191
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 2: But it's Eric Fetty, true, he's anything but lee Eric

192
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 2: league average is a massive achievement. I take Eric Fetty

193
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 2: right now in the Mets. He could pitch Tavorrow.

194
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 1: We do need a starter to pitch it coming this week.

195
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 1: I think I saw just just a little topic here

196
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:40,320
Speaker 1: because I think we throw it out there now. Jared Ikoff,

197
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:42,440
Speaker 1: they called him up, I think right they selected his couch.

198
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:44,439
Speaker 2: Yeah. I was gonna mention that in our preview, but

199
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:45,600
Speaker 2: he is pitching tomorrow hundred.

200
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 1: That's crazy. I don't like that too much.

201
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,640
Speaker 2: We'll get to that in our preview. But the notes

202
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 2: I wrote originally in this game was a lot of

203
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 2: positive things about Joey Lukes and that was all just

204
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 2: taken away from us.

205
00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 1: I can't believe what did that happen? Inflammation Like that's

206
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,440
Speaker 1: like what That's very serious, especially for a guy like

207
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 1: I know, his nickname is Joey Fuego, but he throws anything,

208
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 1: but it so for him to get like these elbow

209
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 1: issues is concerning, especially because he's been pitching so much

210
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,199
Speaker 1: better than we expected, Like he's been a very serviceable

211
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,079
Speaker 1: starter right now, still can't face the line up the

212
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,640
Speaker 1: third time through. I know Rojas had to push it

213
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 1: because of course of the schedule coming up here, and

214
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 1: that's not what lost us. The game is trying to

215
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 1: push Joey Lukazy there by any means.

216
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 2: It actually was close to winning us.

217
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 1: Yes it's a fact, but yeah, but Lukazy has been

218
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,839
Speaker 1: so like really really solid for us, and to now

219
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 1: just have him ripped out from under us when like

220
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 1: we were just starting to get used to Joey Lucase

221
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 1: pitching every five days stinks.

222
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,520
Speaker 2: It's like a really cruel joke. It's like when does

223
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 2: this end? Like I'll even just talk about my Lukazi

224
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:47,679
Speaker 2: notes right now that wrote out while watching the game

225
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,680
Speaker 2: on FREDA, even though all of my emotion is gone

226
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,560
Speaker 2: from this segment. But he had twelve call strikes on

227
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 2: his sinker, which is a season high for his incredible stuff.

228
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 2: National's only put three cherves in play. He threw thirty

229
00:09:59,520 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 2: one of them.

230
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 1: That's a lot.

231
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 2: Got three in play, swung at thirteen at thirty one pitches,

232
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:07,559
Speaker 2: only one with but it just couldn't just couldn't do it.

233
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 2: A lot of foul balls called strikes, and it's like

234
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 2: kind of becoming like knuckleballish.

235
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:14,400
Speaker 1: A little bit. I know that, Uh you know, Gary

236
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 1: ron Keith all of them. When they were doing the

237
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,559
Speaker 1: game this weekend, they mentioned with Lukezy he used to

238
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 1: bring his hands above his head in his wind up

239
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,959
Speaker 1: and he's cut that out completely. And if you look yeah,

240
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:25,599
Speaker 1: I didn't notice it too until they said it, but

241
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 1: if you look back, you can actually like find like

242
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 1: him being a lot more under control and attacking the

243
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 1: zone to getting rid of that shit with his hands

244
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 1: over his head, like he has been a lot more.

245
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 1: He's able to repeat his mechanics a lot more, which,

246
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 1: again shout to Heffer, that's clearly all him.

247
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, all Heffner. Hefner's the goat. But that's actually kind

248
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 2: of interesting. And the irony is that when I've broken

249
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:46,560
Speaker 2: down Lukes a few times this year and we've spoken

250
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 2: about it on and off air, he always got by

251
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 2: with eception because he didn't really have great stuff. And

252
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 2: now he's added velocity in all of his pitches. So

253
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 2: I'm sure that maybe taking out that motion has made

254
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,599
Speaker 2: him just generally more efficient, Like to the plate.

255
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 1: It's a lot less moved having parts because his hands

256
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 1: are like your hands are so important obviously as a

257
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 1: picture that doesn't really need to be said, but for

258
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 1: him to have his hands in a consistent position and

259
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 1: be able to go and pull from the same spot

260
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 1: every single time. It just allows for him to repeat

261
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 1: those mechanics a lot more, and we've seen it in

262
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 1: his performance. It is definitely shown.

263
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 2: Definitely shown, And he's just been ripped away.

264
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 1: From yeah, which is like, I didn't I can't even

265
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 1: imagine we're having this conversation right now that we're talking

266
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 1: about Joey Lukesey being ripped away from us. But he's

267
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 1: been pretty solid.

268
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 2: This is like when like there's a girl who like

269
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:30,720
Speaker 2: has a crush on you, but you like, you don't

270
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 2: really like her. You're like, I don't know, it's not

271
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,720
Speaker 2: that cute, she's not really my type, not really my vibe, YadA, YadA, YadA.

272
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 2: And then like suddenly, like something happens. You're like, wait,

273
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 2: I actually do like this girl. I think we'd be

274
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,560
Speaker 2: great together. And you finally like commit and you make

275
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:43,959
Speaker 2: that jump with the girl and she's off with another guys,

276
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:44,559
Speaker 2: some guy that you.

277
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,200
Speaker 1: Hain't moved on. Lukese didn't necessarily move on here. But

278
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 1: it's like now that he's gone, we miss him.

279
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 2: When are we elbow inflammation? Unless this is actually a

280
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 2: phantomiel state, which I will not rule out because that

281
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:58,440
Speaker 2: just happens. You can't prove or disprove elbow inflammation doesn't

282
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 2: seem it's like it's that way. This is probably bad.

283
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like the idea behind that phantomiel stint is that, like,

284
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 1: you don't now have to lose a forty man spot

285
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 1: to bring up ikof and eventually when he gets sent down,

286
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,120
Speaker 1: you'll just option or DFA him at that point because

287
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:15,439
Speaker 1: who really cares. But it stinks. But yeah, that game

288
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 1: one nothing edwin. Diaz blows it. But I like, I

289
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 1: just I didn't even really care. Like people were upset, like,

290
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:24,200
Speaker 1: oh no, here it comes again. It's like no, like Diaz,

291
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 1: he did get lucky on that one call anisota or

292
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 1: the three to one call that was like a foot

293
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 1: off the plate, but then he also got screwed on

294
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 1: that three to two call that was a strike and

295
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,200
Speaker 1: that kind of took him out of it. I feel

296
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 1: like I.

297
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 2: Think a lot of people, including me, were a little

298
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,520
Speaker 2: bit upset that Lugo was only into phase one batther

299
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:41,960
Speaker 2: in the eighth and not ready for the ninth. But

300
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,080
Speaker 2: then afterwards we found out that that was his call

301
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 2: he just said he couldn't do it anymore. He left

302
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 2: all out there. It seemed like he had to get ready,

303
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 2: like kind of quickly. Yeah, and maybe he wasn't fully

304
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 2: warm and that caused him to use more of what

305
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,800
Speaker 2: he had in the tank and that one spot and

306
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 2: he got out of it. So I guess I don't know.

307
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 2: The weirdest thing about this DS situation is how different

308
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 2: of a picture he is in safe situations versus non

309
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,560
Speaker 2: safe situations. Like this narrative has been brewing for a

310
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 2: while and it's like really born out to being true

311
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 2: right now. This season he has faced fifty five bats

312
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 2: in saved situations and fifty three in non safe situation

313
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 2: even generally shocking that that's that even, But his whip

314
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,119
Speaker 2: in safe situations zero point six to five h disgusting

315
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 2: non saves is one point seven.

316
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 1: That's horrendous. That's like a terrible picture, horrendous. That's the

317
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 1: difference between like Edwin Diaz and like Paul fucking.

318
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 2: Frieschse Chasen Shreve like.

319
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 1: Trees having year, I will not let you throw dirt

320
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:43,199
Speaker 1: would only be good as a met He goes somewhere

321
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 1: else and goes back to being irrelevant Pittsburgh Chas Tree.

322
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 2: You, Yeah, when we get down to the trade deadline

323
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 2: primer later, there's a lot of really weird x mets.

324
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,080
Speaker 2: I have right to right this. I'm excited. I'm excited

325
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 2: to get there. It couldn't be awful to hear, but

326
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 2: it's true. But like this d thing, I don't I

327
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,679
Speaker 2: don't even know how to refer to me.

328
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:03,080
Speaker 1: And I will say for his career, Tacoma put out

329
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 1: a stat of like because he hates the narrative of

330
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:08,520
Speaker 1: save us non safe situation because over his career it's

331
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: relatively similar. In fact, I think he does have a

332
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,880
Speaker 1: better better numbers in say or in non save situations

333
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 1: than in save over his career. But you can't deny that,

334
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 1: like one, he's a different picture than he was three

335
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 1: four years ago. It's the same thing with the Trevor

336
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 1: Bower argument when we were talking about that in the

337
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 1: off season, where you can't talk about Edwin Diaz now

338
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 1: and use stats from seventeen sixteen. It just makes no sense.

339
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 1: So right now he's it's a focus thing, I really do. Man.

340
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:36,200
Speaker 1: It's like the trumpets. He needs, he needs like that

341
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 1: high pressure to almost like get himself hyped up and focus.

342
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 2: Is that a problem in of itself?

343
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 1: It's concerning that. It's see like mental stuff is always

344
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,960
Speaker 1: tough because you can't just really fix mental stuff. That's

345
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 1: the things you worry about when you have relievers is

346
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 1: that they just mentally lose it.

347
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 2: Like you.

348
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 1: How many guys that we've seen over the years be

349
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 1: closers all of a sudden, one thing happens and they're done.

350
00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: They have no idea what to do. So I don't

351
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 1: think Diaz is obviously in that scenario, because he's still

352
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 1: money when we need him. But in non safe situations,

353
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 1: he's got to be able to find a way to

354
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: at least dig down and like someone's gotta lie to

355
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 1: him and tell him, no, the scorer is one nothing,

356
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 1: we're winning.

357
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,640
Speaker 2: You need to like put Edwin Diaz in a hyperbaric

358
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 2: chamber until like the seventh inning they let him stretch.

359
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:17,400
Speaker 2: I'd say, like, don't tell him anything.

360
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 1: We're up one bases loaded, come in, don't even put

361
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 1: fake runners on.

362
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,600
Speaker 2: Who cares like the little things they put on the horses.

363
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 2: In my part, that's exactly what he needs. He needs

364
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 2: the blinders, don't see anything, just focus on the catcher.

365
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,160
Speaker 2: He doesn't hold runners on anyway, so who care's true?

366
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 1: We've how many times we watch him come in and

367
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 1: forget that there's a guy on base and they just

368
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 1: walked a second.

369
00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 2: Simply ignore it. That's just another thing I want to

370
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 2: mention about. That ninth ink was a pretty ballsy hit

371
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 2: and run call by David Martinez. Razy and it worked.

372
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:49,480
Speaker 2: It worked to perfection, like literally to keep Zimmerman out

373
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:51,800
Speaker 2: of a dull play situation where I you can turn

374
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 2: triple play and Ryan zerraman. Ryan Zimerman would be the

375
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:57,320
Speaker 2: slowest member of this podcast. If I'm pretty slow. I

376
00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 2: don't know about that.

377
00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 1: I read like a five four forty when I last

378
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 1: ran one, so that's like offensive. Lineman probably blows.

379
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 2: Do you see him really down the line this week?

380
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 2: I gave it.

381
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 1: It looks painful. But like the other thing too with

382
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 1: that Zimmerman hit is that Diaz beat him. That was

383
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 1: a sick pitch and he just put the bat on

384
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:15,120
Speaker 1: the ball because it was simply a hit and run.

385
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 1: David Martinez literally bailed him out.

386
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 2: Literally, props Dave Martinez. Remember that guy seems to be dead.

387
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 1: He finds he is a cat man. He's got nine

388
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 1: lives and I think he's on like number seven right now,

389
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 1: but he just does not die.

390
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,160
Speaker 2: Does not die. Whatever. Game one it was just wasn't

391
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 2: an awful game.

392
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 1: It wasn't fun to watch, Like it was just it

393
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 1: wasn't bad baseball because like technically there was like nothing wrong,

394
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 1: but it was bad from like a viewer perspective, because

395
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:38,360
Speaker 1: you're like, this game stinks.

396
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like it wasn't like Surez versus to Grom like

397
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,760
Speaker 2: throwing zeros. This seventh is Eric fucking Fetti and Luke

398
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 2: CAZy just figuring it out.

399
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,040
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody in Major League Baseball could have

400
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 1: bet that those guys would be going six innings and

401
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 1: not allow a run against each other. I'm actually like

402
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 1: super curious as to what the over under was in

403
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 1: Vegas for that game. But that awful game on Friday

404
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 1: carry this into two pretty not great games on saturd. Yeah,

405
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 1: I mean Game two was like fake good because the

406
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,200
Speaker 1: Mets won and we won what like five to one

407
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,400
Speaker 1: or whatever it was, but that was five to two.

408
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,760
Speaker 1: That was like the most fake good game ever. There

409
00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 1: was one player that had a good game, like really

410
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 1: that you need to talk about and it's Francisco Lindor

411
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:17,359
Speaker 1: who seemingly got a little bit back into his groove

412
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:19,119
Speaker 1: this weekend, which is nice to see. He had a

413
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:20,520
Speaker 1: bunch of game where he was getting hit, hitting the

414
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 1: ball hard, like you said, in Game one, and in

415
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 1: Game two it paid off after the Nationals talked shit

416
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:27,120
Speaker 1: for some apparent reason on Francisco Lindor.

417
00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:28,280
Speaker 2: That's our bet take of the week.

418
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, it has to be. We'll get to that and

419
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 1: at the end in a little bit. But like Lindor,

420
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 1: two homers had a hit. Our three hits in the game,

421
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,760
Speaker 1: two homers, five RBIs he literally was the offense along

422
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 1: with David Peterson and his double.

423
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,360
Speaker 2: Four hard hit balls too, Like these were not cheapies,

424
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:41,920
Speaker 2: like he was crushing that second home run two is

425
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 2: a movie rushed.

426
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:44,120
Speaker 1: He knew he was gone the second he hit.

427
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:47,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, pimped it chilled. It was the first time I

428
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:50,280
Speaker 2: tweeted this. We've seen Francisco Lindor take over a game

429
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:52,359
Speaker 2: as a met.

430
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,200
Speaker 1: Like that was his like I don't want to say

431
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 1: like coming out moment, because he's still he's still you know,

432
00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:57,880
Speaker 1: hovering around that seven hundred oh pps thing. But that's

433
00:17:57,960 --> 00:17:59,720
Speaker 1: like whereas if you're a Mets fan, you see that,

434
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:03,639
Speaker 1: you go there he is. That is Francisco lindoor we paid.

435
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,200
Speaker 2: For, yes, and as the Francisco inndoor this team needs,

436
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,080
Speaker 2: and that's a fantastical indoor this team has neither for

437
00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 2: the past few weeks. Getting it for one game like

438
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 2: this and literally putting us on his back to win

439
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 2: a game was very, very very valuable. Yeah.

440
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 1: I mean he saved us quite a few games in

441
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:20,080
Speaker 1: the lost column here because that game, if he doesn't

442
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:21,720
Speaker 1: hit those home runs, we lose. It's just straight up

443
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,080
Speaker 1: we lose to nothing. Otherwise. I mean from this game,

444
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: there's not too much to take from it. Like Peterson

445
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,399
Speaker 1: was fine. I guess he was fine.

446
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:32,320
Speaker 2: I got some stuff talk about it. Of course, it's cool.

447
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:33,639
Speaker 2: He was a factor on offense.

448
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:35,880
Speaker 1: First hit, extra basic, crushed it. I mean he six'

449
00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 1: six or whatever he, is SO i would hope that

450
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 1: it goes.

451
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:39,919
Speaker 2: Far that was the second hardest hit ball by A

452
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 2: met in this, gat besides That francisco. Indoor second, hold that's.

453
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:44,679
Speaker 1: The stat of the game right. There David peterson had

454
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:46,399
Speaker 1: the second hardest hit. Ball we had no clue what

455
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:47,640
Speaker 1: to do at the plate, again wasn't.

456
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:50,000
Speaker 2: Cheapy it was over one, hundred wasn't, cheapy got double

457
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:52,440
Speaker 2: and he scored two. Runs but like to talk About

458
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:55,080
Speaker 2: peterson on the, mound this was another step in the

459
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 2: right direction After monday's, game like good getting a little

460
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,920
Speaker 2: more Comfortable David peterson that we once knew one who

461
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:04,080
Speaker 2: can be. Effective he mixed the pitches a little bit

462
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,679
Speaker 2: more Than, monday which is another indication that he is

463
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:11,159
Speaker 2: finding his groove. Again through thirty percent, sinkers twenty four percent,

464
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:14,119
Speaker 2: sliders twenty four percent forcing, fastball also got the forcing

465
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:17,119
Speaker 2: fastball back ranking and twenty percent change ups four pitches

466
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,159
Speaker 2: moving the sinker somehow had five whiffs and fourteen, swings

467
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 2: which was. Surprising, importantly the slider finally got some whiffs,

468
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,320
Speaker 2: again had two whifts on six. Wings also five called,

469
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 2: strikes SOMETHING i talked about two weeks ago when he

470
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,439
Speaker 2: was down really bad not locating the, slider but this

471
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,600
Speaker 2: time he definitely was locating. It he threw a couple

472
00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:35,200
Speaker 2: of the back footies that worked, out he threw a

473
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:36,960
Speaker 2: couple of the back doors that worked, out a couple

474
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 2: of ones that cutting outside the. Lefties he kind of

475
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,159
Speaker 2: was able to put it in every zone that you

476
00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:43,440
Speaker 2: could want to slider commanding both sides of the, plate

477
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 2: which is astronomically important for, him and the most important

478
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:48,440
Speaker 2: thing with that slider is none of them were.

479
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 1: Crushed, yes, no he did not get hit very, hard

480
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,040
Speaker 1: which was great to see because that's always the thing

481
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,399
Speaker 1: is he either has no control or he's just getting

482
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:55,880
Speaker 1: teed off.

483
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:57,440
Speaker 2: On he didn't do any of, that which was. Good

484
00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:00,480
Speaker 2: the baby steps With David, peterson, definitely not even one

485
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 2: slider was put in.

486
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,440
Speaker 1: Plot love to hear that because he had been struggling

487
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:03,960
Speaker 1: with that pitch.

488
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 2: Badly, definitely and he only it's kind of funny like

489
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 2: talking about To David peterson's the only GUY i think

490
00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 2: three or four ground balls this whole, game.

491
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:11,480
Speaker 1: Which is so funny because like his thing is like

492
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:12,200
Speaker 1: he's a ground ball.

493
00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 2: Pitcher, yeah but again in this game when he uses

494
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:16,919
Speaker 2: fifty percent of his pitches or either slides or forcing,

495
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 2: fastballs it's just. Different and it worked as long as

496
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:21,120
Speaker 2: he goes out there and give us a round five,

497
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:22,879
Speaker 2: innings WHICH i really wish he would have gotten to

498
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 2: that fifth ending and got the. Win stupid, Staff BUT

499
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,120
Speaker 2: i think it'd just been good for his like. Psyche,

500
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 2: yeah the momentum to do. That you kind of saw

501
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:31,720
Speaker 2: The nationals like really wanting to Get John lester like

502
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:33,439
Speaker 2: a complete game right after. This that will get to

503
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:34,919
Speaker 2: in a. MOMENT i have one more funny stat to,

504
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:36,960

505
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,119
Speaker 2: care about shit like that way more so than the

506
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:42,679
Speaker 2: talking heads and the statisticians and everyone else besides fantasy baseball.

507
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:46,120

Speaker 1: numbers but Then keith will also rattle off his numbers

510
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:53,240

511
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,600
Speaker 1: want to say or, not is keeping some sort of

512
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,360
Speaker 1: tab of how they're. Playing if you're a guy who

513
00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:00,639
Speaker 1: doesn't seem to care about getting a win or hitting

Speaker 1: Series that Was game. Two game three though not very.

585
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 2: Good, no it wasn't good at. All but like, again

586
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,399
Speaker 2: we just were crushing the ball and just nothing was.

587
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:57,159
Speaker 2: Falling LIKE i understand the fear coming out with The

588
00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:59,880
Speaker 2: mets offense right. Now when we scored how many runs

589
00:23:59,920 --> 00:24:04,520
Speaker 2: we scored five plus two plus plus, Two so, yeah

590
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 2: nine nine runs of four. Games that's. Awful but, again

591
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,160
Speaker 2: we had ten hard hit balls in this, game like we.

592
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 2: WERE i felt like at least we were getting a

593
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 2: lot of solid contact off Of John. Lester we just couldn't.

594
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 1: Buy, Yeah and it's also hard to win a game

595
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 1: when like you're going With gaselman to, start which we've Liked,

596
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,439
Speaker 1: Caselman he's done well in his role this. Year but

597
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,280
Speaker 1: when you go Like aselm And Sean Reid foley and

598
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,880
Speaker 1: read fully got absolutely, shelled which that was gonna happen

599
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,160
Speaker 1: at some. Point we've talked about his stuff all year,

600
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:31,879
Speaker 1: long like it's. Fine he does what he does for,

601
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:35,000
Speaker 1: us that's his, role that's his. Job it just happened

602
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 1: in a. Game, luckily at least it happened in a

603
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 1: game where we weren't. Scoring, again, like at least this

604
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 1: wasn't a game we were gonna win and like. Dominate

605
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:41,760
Speaker 1: this was a game that we.

606
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:44,760
Speaker 2: Lost that is some Old mets like fucked up that spin,

607
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 2: zone or at least at least our guy pitched poorly

608
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:48,400
Speaker 2: in a game where we sucked. That, yes.

609
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:51,040
Speaker 1: EXACTLY i have to find a positive out of, it because,

610
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,080
Speaker 1: like how crushing would that have been if like we

611
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:55,399
Speaker 1: scored like six runs that game and then he just

612
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:57,000
Speaker 1: comes out and gets. Shelled at least we.

613
00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 2: Stunk, yeah we'll read fully breakdown because this was a

614
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:02,760
Speaker 2: guy that we liked a. LOT L mets fans should like.

615
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:04,640
Speaker 2: Them lies played a very important role for this, team

616
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 2: but we seemed a little bit like fools gold and

617
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 2: now that might be coming to. Fruition the first thing

618
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 2: that jumps off the page for me About Reed foley

619
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,240
Speaker 2: is those spinner rates have been not great since he

620
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:18,359
Speaker 2: came back from the. Miners and if anyone is paying,

621
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:20,879
Speaker 2: attention some things have happened in baseball with spin, rates

622
00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,280
Speaker 2: like Since Sean Rey foley left hand the, Comeback so

623
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 2: that's something that's something to figure. Effect yeah. Exactly, Yeah

624
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,760
Speaker 2: Sean Reid foley just sent seismic waves through base out

625
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:32,680
Speaker 2: of incredible. Pitching, yeah he's just he's just so good

626
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 2: THAT mb need to impose a rule to Stop Sean reid.

627
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,360
Speaker 2: Force it's an Anti Sean Reid foley agenda In Major League,

628
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,639
Speaker 2: baseball AND i will not stand at, again as the

629
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,359
Speaker 2: spin ray police might tell, you like maybe there's just

630
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:45,680
Speaker 2: a sample sized. Thing he did only throw nine sliders

631
00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:47,359
Speaker 2: and that was the pitch that spin rays dropped the.

632
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 2: Most but that begs the, question why Did sean Ree

633
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,679
Speaker 2: foley only throw nine sliders or one fifth of all

634
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 2: of his? Pitches, YEAH i don't.

635
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:56,720
Speaker 1: Know it's got to be a game plan thing where

636
00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,480
Speaker 1: they just decided they weren't GOING i don't.

637
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 2: Know it was.

638
00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:01,920
Speaker 1: Tough there was a lot of questions this weekend from

639
00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:05,199
Speaker 1: both sides where it was, like what was the reasoning

640
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 1: that we DID, x or we did? Why and it

641
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 1: wasn't necessarily what won or lost us the, game but

642
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,720
Speaker 1: it was just it seemed uncharacteristic of This mets team.

643
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:15,240
Speaker 2: Definitely and he was so successful early in the. YEAR

644
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:17,440
Speaker 2: i think back to that outing against The braves where

645
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:19,400
Speaker 2: he picked up the slack For taiwan when he left

646
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 2: with his, injury where he was mixing his slide or

647
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:23,320
Speaker 2: his four scene or in his change, up but he

648
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 2: was getting results with all three. Pitches On saturday through

649
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,639
Speaker 2: eighty percent of backs that can't, happen and they were

650
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 2: consistently getting. Crushed Sean refully does not throw one hundred

651
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:33,119
Speaker 2: miles an. Hour he can't just get by by throwing

652
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:35,119
Speaker 2: like medium. Velocity fastball's never.

653
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:36,920
Speaker 1: Gonna work For sean Reid fully to be an effective,

654
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:38,959
Speaker 1: pitcher he really does have to use all three pitches

655
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,920
Speaker 1: effectively because he doesn't have that plus. Stuff his fastball

656
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 1: becomes harder to hit because you're working off that slider

657
00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:46,679
Speaker 1: and change. Up like you, said he's not a roll As.

658
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:49,399
Speaker 1: Chapin he's Not Noah cindergardter's throwing one hundred and one

659
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:50,160
Speaker 1: miles an hour out.

660
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,679
Speaker 2: Here, no it wasn't recipes for, success and it was

661
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:55,359
Speaker 2: so clear off the. Bat but then, also like the

662
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 2: weird awful part about this game was that we had

663
00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:00,240
Speaker 2: some life at the. End it felt like if this

664
00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:03,000
Speaker 2: was a nine inning, game we were right fucking. There,

665
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 2: yeah which.

666
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:07,640
Speaker 1: Stinks LINDOR i, know came out afterwards to talk about

667
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:09,239
Speaker 1: the double headers a little, bit saying that he likes

668
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:13,120
Speaker 1: him because he hates playing eighteen innings in like one

669
00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 1: day At Short.

670
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:15,800
Speaker 2: Stuf he didn't even played. Fourteen he didn't even play.

671
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 1: Fourteen SO i don't. KNOW i don't know what to

672
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:19,920
Speaker 1: feel about these double headers, because, LIKE i think there's.

673
00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 1: Time we've been very good in double headers this, year

674
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,080
Speaker 1: and LIKE i think it definitely does help a team like,

675
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:26,080
Speaker 1: us especially when we are down on, pitching to at

676
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 1: least play seven inning double headers instead of nine, Great

677
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 1: so in that, aspect, like, YES i like, it but,

678
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,480
Speaker 1: man we gotta we gotta do something, Here like how

679
00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 1: is there even this many double headers coming?

680
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,720
Speaker 2: Up we talked about this last. Week it's fucking. RIDICULOUS

681
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:40,200
Speaker 2: mlb put the mess having three double heads one. Week

682
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 2: The braves are playing two and two days and that

683
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:42,280
Speaker 2: should be.

684
00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 1: Criminal that's so fucked.

685
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:45,280
Speaker 2: Up they should have not been playing a double head

686
00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:47,399
Speaker 2: tomorrow or moved that or. SOMETHING i don't. Know are

687
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 2: we allowed to like decline scheduling changes like Cauld Sandy

688
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 2: olson just have said, no like move that To.

689
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:54,640
Speaker 1: JULY i, Wish but it seems like baseball is, very

690
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 1: very concerned about getting every game in by the end

691
00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:59,680
Speaker 1: of the, season so they want to get as many

692
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 1: done as quickly as possible and worry about the end

693
00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:02,960
Speaker 1: of the season when it.

694
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:05,880
Speaker 2: Comes we're playing The braves In philly so many more.

695
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 1: Times and you know what's crazy about this The. NATIONALS

696
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:09,880
Speaker 1: i don't think we played them Until august, now.

697
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:12,359
Speaker 2: And we do actually have a Double heather already scheduled

700
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 2: Bad it's so. STUPID i fucking hate the. Scheduling and then,

701
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:21,520
Speaker 2: like just to get back to the six and seventh.

702
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 2: Innings yesterday we had a little bit juice in the.

703
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,520
Speaker 2: Six polar was up two men on two out And

704
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:29,720
Speaker 2: Cebe buckner wrung him up on a pitch In baltimore From.

705
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:31,919
Speaker 2: Washington it would have Hit Wan soto in the left.

706
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:32,920
Speaker 1: Buttocks.

707
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 2: Ridiculous it was the worst call of the day on.

708
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 1: Umpire oh, yeah, no it was so. BAD i, Mean

709
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:40,560
Speaker 1: Stebe buckner is very well. Known, Him Angel hernandez And

710
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 1: Kerwin danley are known as the three worst umpires in all.

711
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:47,360
Speaker 1: Baseball those guys just. Stink they're. Terrible and what do you,

712
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:49,240
Speaker 1: know we got two of them in this. Series Kirwin

713
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 1: danley In game, One Sebe buckner In game. Three this

714
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:55,120
Speaker 1: umpiring crew this weekend was, atrocious even going back To game.

715
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 1: One they missed That billy mckinnee call where he could

716
00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:00,720
Speaker 1: clearly turned and rounded first base Tagged HIMUT i didn't see.

717
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 1: It he's, Safe like that can't. Happen and you know

718
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 1: what else can't? Happen that call On Kevin pillar that

719
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:06,600
Speaker 1: was in another area.

720
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,440
Speaker 2: Code again not saying that scoring two runs in the

721
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 2: sixth enning would have changed the result of this, game

722
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:13,720
Speaker 2: but it could have just gone so, momentum like the

723
00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 2: heart of the oiler was going to be coming up,

724
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 2: soon like would help polars swinging a decently hot bat.

725
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 2: Hit to see a call like, that ed, ever even

726
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:20,960
Speaker 2: just to help your, team it's.

727
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:23,480
Speaker 1: Just, ridiculous you, Know like either WAY i would be going,

728
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:25,480
Speaker 1: like oh, boy that's, terrible even if it was The

729
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 1: mets around the receiving end of it and like getting

730
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 1: the benefit of the doubt. There it's just it's. Bad it's.

731
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 1: Bad the umpiring situation this, YEAR i feel like has

732
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:35,280
Speaker 1: been worse than it's ever. Been AND i don't know

733
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 1: if it's just because we're more focused on baseball or

734
00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:40,560
Speaker 1: really pushing for this robot umpire, stuff but they are

735
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:43,080
Speaker 1: not making a good case for them to stick around much.

736
00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:45,120
Speaker 2: Longer, NO i don't think they're going. To and we've

737
00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:47,120
Speaker 2: talked about these four awful games as much AS i

738
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:48,520
Speaker 2: even want, to BUT i just want to give two

739
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:51,360
Speaker 2: more positive about. Games nice to see Al mora get

740
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 2: two nice, hits two doubles coming off the. Il that's,

741
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 2: big especially because we Defaid Mason, williams so a'ma is

742
00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 2: now that fourth outfielder or fifth outfielder have we're going to.

743
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:01,880
Speaker 2: Carry he's the defensive.

744
00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 1: Center he's a defensive center. Fielder but it's good to

745
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 1: see that there's a little life left in that bat

746
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,120
Speaker 1: BECAUSE i think when we saw him a little bit

747
00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:10,840
Speaker 1: earlier in the, year he also was still getting like, minimal,

748
00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:13,239
Speaker 1: minimal minimal playing. Time so it's hard to get your

749
00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 1: back going when you play once every ten, days which

750
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 1: is what it seemed like for Al. Mora good to

751
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 1: see that there's just a chance that back can do,

752
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:21,880
Speaker 1: something BECAUSE i was starting to get a little.

753
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,240
Speaker 2: Worried, definitely and there is a. CHANCE i believe that there's. Something,

754
00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 2: also my Guy, yenzi yeah call back, up look decent

755
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 2: and mop up. Duty he's definitely a worthwhile arm who

756
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 2: can be a major League, yeah which that's a win.

757
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:33,960
Speaker 1: Hopefully we get no injuries to this, bullpen because this

758
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:35,960
Speaker 1: bullpen really has been. Great but if he needs to

759
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:37,800
Speaker 1: step in and fill in for, somebody it's good to

760
00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 1: know that he's a capable.

761
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:42,200

Speaker 2: Go you let him go through the order one time

774
00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,200
Speaker 2: and see what. Happens that's WHAT i would.

775
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 1: Do and then who comes in after? It is It

776
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:16,400

779
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,320
Speaker 2: Day this whole series has been a fever. Dream it

780
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:24,720
Speaker 2: feels like as if it just has not.

781
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:26,880
Speaker 1: Happened, yeah so let's just say kof goes through one.

782
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:29,280
Speaker 1: Time that's the best case. Scenario who knows what we're

783
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:31,960
Speaker 1: gonna see What Jared, Yakoff he has not looked promising

784
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:33,840
Speaker 1: in the, miners and you didn't look great in spring training.

785
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:35,960
Speaker 1: Either spring, training of, course take everything with a great,

786
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:38,960
Speaker 1: Assault but when a guy is just getting teed off

787
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:42,320
Speaker 1: on at every single level he's apparently, at it's not

788
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 1: a recipe for.

789
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 2: Success, no but we're going to need a fifth starter this.

790
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:49,720
Speaker 2: Week we probably might need a. Six SO i hope

791
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:51,920
Speaker 2: he's okay because we're gonna need some help this weekend

792
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,640
Speaker 2: In philadelphia with, Him so maybe he can be. FINE

793
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 2: i guess the ground's gonna pitch game one, though that's

794
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:59,600
Speaker 2: pretty much official at this, Point So i'm hoping he goes.

795
00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 2: SEVEN i think them.

796
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:02,000
Speaker 1: Just mets are really looking for him to go.

797
00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:04,040
Speaker 2: Seven, YEAH i think that they're hoping, That BUT i

798
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:06,040
Speaker 2: how can we even say. THAT i don't even know

799
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:07,080
Speaker 2: what to expect out of him at this.

800
00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:09,720
Speaker 1: Point it seems like he's fine based on everything with

801
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 1: the shoulder, stuff it really seems like he's fine because he's.

802
00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 1: Thrown He's they're making no not a big deal about

803
00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:17,240
Speaker 1: it at, all and you would think like small deal

804
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:19,600
Speaker 1: out of all the like stars In Major League baseball

805
00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:21,760
Speaker 1: that are. Pitchers anytime you hear an, injury it's like

806
00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,280
Speaker 1: JUST i l, them shell. Them and The mets have

807
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:27,960
Speaker 1: a shoulder soreness with him and a flexor, injury and

808
00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 1: De gram's not gonna miss a.

809
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:32,720
Speaker 2: START i think that if the circumstances were, different which

810
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:35,880
Speaker 2: sucks to say because that is like famous last, words

811
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,400
Speaker 2: if the circumstances were, DIFFERENT i think there's a good

812
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:40,640
Speaker 2: chance he would be on THE il if we didn't

813
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 2: have nine games in six days or seven days whatever

814
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 2: this situation is starting from yesterday And Joey lukesey or

815
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 2: was not in THE, il or Possibly carlos karrask Or

816
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 2: NOAs and De gard were, healthy wherever they may. BE

817
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,640
Speaker 2: i JUST i don't FEAR i fear the. Word it's

818
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:57,320
Speaker 2: gonna be a, tough tough series In.

819
00:32:57,360 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 1: Atlanta. Now good thing is they're still not playing for

820
00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:03,240
Speaker 1: tin really good. Baseball that team is just so hot and.

821
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:05,360
Speaker 1: Cold they seem to love to go four and six

822
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 1: every time in their last. Ten it's a big thing

823
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:10,200
Speaker 1: for them this. Year so at least we're going in

824
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:13,360
Speaker 1: there and it's not like we're playing a smoking Hot braves, Team.

825
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,520
Speaker 2: No but it's still. SCARY i just fear this is

826
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:18,959
Speaker 2: the most Negative i've probably been this entire. SEASON i

827
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:21,240
Speaker 2: fear that we're walking in right now is like like

828
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:24,040
Speaker 2: a limping deer and they have a chance to come

829
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:26,680
Speaker 2: in and actually just like put a bullet right, yeah.

830
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:28,560
Speaker 1: Which the good to get more. Bid the good thing

831
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:32,160
Speaker 1: for us is that The mets are still in first

832
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:34,680
Speaker 1: place by a pretty good lead Because philly And atlanta keeps.

833
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 1: Losing so we're up four On, philly five and a

834
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 1: half On atlanta, still so even with a terrible, series

835
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:43,720
Speaker 1: we're still. Fine but obviously we gotta keep that. Lead

836
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:45,280
Speaker 1: we gotta keep it. Going we've been in first place

837
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:47,959
Speaker 1: for six. Weeks with the, replacements there's no reason now

838
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 1: with this team getting, healthier with McNeil possibly being back

839
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:52,600
Speaker 1: In confordo And nimo being back on the, way this

840
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:54,120
Speaker 1: is when the team's really got to hit their strive

841
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:56,320
Speaker 1: right before The All star break and finish off the

842
00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 1: first half strong.

843
00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:00,960
Speaker 2: Definitely and again like to now become positive we're gonna

844
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:03,040
Speaker 2: have to grom tomorrow and we're gonna Have stroman On,

845
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:04,960
Speaker 2: Tuesday so no matter, what at least we have our two.

846
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,800
Speaker 2: Guys possibly just stop stop this bleeding a little, bit

847
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:09,960
Speaker 2: get us a couple of easy, wins figure the fuck

848
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,160
Speaker 2: out tomorrow evening With Jared, lecoff as we like to,

849
00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:14,239
Speaker 2: say it's gonna be a funky, adventure and just keep

850
00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:16,399
Speaker 2: the braves off the, board keep that offense not hot

851
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 2: as it hasn't. Been just beat them better than.

852
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:20,839
Speaker 1: Them, yeah This All star break can't come soon. Enough

853
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:23,200
Speaker 1: let's just get through it and continue to stay in first.

854
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,120
Speaker 1: Place that's really kind of the Part i'm at right

855
00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:27,680
Speaker 1: now with this team is just stick with, it stay

856
00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:30,040
Speaker 1: in first, place keep playing good. Baseball we've seen this

857
00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 1: team play good baseball with a worst roster on the,

858
00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:34,880
Speaker 1: Field so just let's wake up a little. Bit hopefully

859
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 1: the series was a little bit of a wake up, call, like,

860
00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 1: hey that's, right we can't just coast against The. Nationals

861
00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:41,480
Speaker 1: we can't just coast against these. Teams we have to

862
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:42,360
Speaker 1: come out and play.

863
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,240
Speaker 2: Definitely and you saw this team rise to the occasion

864
00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:46,880
Speaker 2: against The padres and against The, Cups So i'm hoping

865
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:49,640
Speaker 2: that we channel some more of that energy again against

866
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:52,360
Speaker 2: A braves team, that at least it seems like internally

867
00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:54,200
Speaker 2: The mets have been very focused on for a long.

868
00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:56,240
Speaker 2: Time everyone knows that you have to beat The braves

869
00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:58,000
Speaker 2: if you want to win THE Nl, east and we

870
00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:00,520
Speaker 2: had this, year and let's continue that moment against this.

871
00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:02,800
Speaker 1: Tea let's keep put a shuit, forward WHICH i think

872
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:05,240
Speaker 1: now leads us into a way that we could probably

873
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:07,759
Speaker 1: start pushing this team forward a little bit even. More

874
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:09,440
Speaker 1: we like the, roster we like the way it's been.

875
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:12,319
Speaker 1: Looking we promised this last. Episode let's talk a little

876
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 1: bit about trade. DEADLINE i know you wrote down about

877
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:17,560
Speaker 1: it looks like every single player In Major League baseball

878
00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:17,759
Speaker 1: on this.

879
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 2: Notes, YEAH i put about twenty five names. DOWN i

880
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,399
Speaker 2: was really getting into it yesterday looking the stuff and.

881
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:24,920
Speaker 1: Very like pitching. Heavy that seems to be where your

882
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:26,840
Speaker 1: focus is at as pitchers for The, mets which is

883
00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:28,439
Speaker 1: something that we direly need right.

884
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:31,520
Speaker 2: Now, definitely especially With jeff McNeil coming back tomorrow and

885
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:34,399
Speaker 2: it seems like can four though And nimo coming back next.

886
00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:37,520
Speaker 2: Weekend as long as those guys do their job and

887
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:41,960
Speaker 2: perform up to their even most mild expectations and, projections

888
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:44,160
Speaker 2: this offense will be. GOOD i have no. Doubt we

889
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:47,319
Speaker 2: haven't seen even three of The mets hitters be clicking

890
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:49,279
Speaker 2: at the same. Time yet there's a lot of the

891
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:51,920
Speaker 2: ceiling left for this. OFFENSE i expect us to hit

892
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:54,600
Speaker 2: it at some, point maybe that those back to back

893
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:56,799
Speaker 2: pirate series as we go through the. Break i'm not

894
00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:59,160
Speaker 2: worried all about The mets. Offense i'm not worried at

895
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:02,040
Speaker 2: all about The mets like it knife, down not even

896
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,680
Speaker 2: a little, bit not. WORRIED i am worried about The

897
00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:06,560
Speaker 2: mets pitching. Depth and that's WHERE i want to take

898
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:10,200
Speaker 2: this trade deadline. Preview we need pitching really. BADLY i

899
00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:12,960
Speaker 2: don't know if we're gonna get anything out Of noasindergard

900
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,000
Speaker 2: Or Carls carrasco this. SEASON i. DON'T i really.

901
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 1: Don't it's tough to say because we just know is

902
00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:20,319
Speaker 1: getting ramped up so, quickly and then he just got

903
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:22,600
Speaker 1: shut down and it has been shut. Down and Then,

904
00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:25,239
Speaker 1: CARRASCO i, mean he's thirty four to thirty five years.

905
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:28,279
Speaker 1: OLD a torn hamstring that's going to bother him all year,

906
00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:30,360
Speaker 1: long doesn't matter how many of these shots he gets

907
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:32,799
Speaker 1: and how much rehab he. Does he's thirty four to thirty.

908
00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:37,200
Speaker 1: Five he probably needs to have like actual, rest not do, anything,

909
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:39,839
Speaker 1: surgery whatever it. Takes he's not gonna be one hundred

910
00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:41,560
Speaker 1: percent this. Year are The mets willing to risk. That

911
00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:43,440
Speaker 1: we don't know right. Now it seems like they're gonna be,

912
00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:44,520
Speaker 1: very very cautious with.

913
00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:46,680
Speaker 2: Him, yeah AND i think that's the name of the.

914
00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:49,440
Speaker 2: Game but because all that being, said he was throwing last.

915
00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:51,200
Speaker 2: Week BUT i JUST i can't count him do. Anything

916
00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:53,279
Speaker 2: possibly maybe relief. Role he's done that a couple times

917
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:56,000
Speaker 2: late in the season after, injuries after a. Battleukemia the

918
00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:57,719
Speaker 2: other thing that we have to worry about about This

919
00:36:57,760 --> 00:37:00,319
Speaker 2: mets rotation is THAT i think it's very Likely Marcus

920
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:03,160
Speaker 2: stroman and Or Taiwan walker are gonna regress a little

921
00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:05,279
Speaker 2: bit to their. Means we know they're not two of

922
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:07,600
Speaker 2: the best pitchers. Nationally they're both. Good they both proven

923
00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:10,200
Speaker 2: that they. Are their floor and ceilings are risen to

924
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:12,479
Speaker 2: what we probably thought they were In. April they're not world.

925
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:14,840
Speaker 2: Beaders we can't count these guys to be. STOPPERS i

926
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:17,800
Speaker 2: would not even be super comfortable giving either of The

927
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:20,360
Speaker 2: thos guys the ball In game two of THE, NLDS i.

928
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:22,680
Speaker 1: WOULDN'T i think THAT'S i think that's. FAIR i Think

929
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:24,520
Speaker 1: i'm a little more confident On stroman just BECAUSE I

930
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:27,040
Speaker 1: stroman really does feel to rise to the, occasion and

931
00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:28,719
Speaker 1: he's a guy who always plays a chip on his,

932
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 1: shoulder like we've, Said So i'm okay With stroman Being game. Two,

933
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:33,680
Speaker 1: obviously there's some guys in the, market like a guy

934
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:35,760
Speaker 1: on The Washington nationals by the name Of Max, schurzer

935
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:39,759
Speaker 1: That i'd much rather Prefer game, Two BUT i don't

936
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 1: think like him as a game two starter is necessarily a.

937
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:44,120
Speaker 1: Weakness AND i don't even Think taiwan is a three

938
00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:46,440
Speaker 1: is necessarily a. Weakness but of, course if we can

939
00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:49,080
Speaker 1: improve and get better, arms why would we not do.

940
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:50,319
Speaker 1: That we're trying to win A world series.

941
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:53,480
Speaker 2: Here, yeah, Definitely insurser is the jewel on the market right,

942
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:55,840
Speaker 2: now AND i think his market is going to be

943
00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:58,640
Speaker 2: very interesting to watch develop because he is very clearly

944
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:01,960
Speaker 2: the alpha of this Trade. Deadlights he's still one of

945
00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:03,680
Speaker 2: the best pitchers in the league at thirty, five whoever

946
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:05,759
Speaker 2: old he, is and he's a, rental so those two

947
00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:08,160
Speaker 2: things are going to work very hardly against his. Value

948
00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:10,359
Speaker 2: but he's a, say young, candidate a Perennial All, star

949
00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 2: a Potential hall Of, Famer i'll say. That and he's a.

950
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:16,640
Speaker 2: PITBULL i want him on the mound when things dude.

951
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:18,799
Speaker 1: Shoves he's Mad max for a. Reason we all know

952
00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:21,279
Speaker 1: the video of him literally screaming at himself on the

953
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:24,120
Speaker 1: mound in his, glove like you little, bitch you, motherfucker,

954
00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:27,520
Speaker 1: you you better throw that fucking, strike like he is genuinely.

955
00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 1: Insane BUT i love that because he's insane because all

956
00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:32,160
Speaker 1: he wants to do is go out there and beat.

957
00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:33,440
Speaker 1: You he wants to stomp on your.

958
00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:36,640
Speaker 2: Throat, yes and the question bags now whether The nationals

959
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:38,880
Speaker 2: are actually going to move, him because we've seen this

960
00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:41,239
Speaker 2: team claw themselves out of the grave once. Before i'm

961
00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:43,080
Speaker 2: not saying The nationals are going to make A World series,

962
00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:45,560
Speaker 2: run But i'm saying THAT i think the people in

963
00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:48,640
Speaker 2: their front office might become stubborn about being, exsellers WHICH i.

964
00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:51,359
Speaker 2: Understand even just to reach the Wild card, game which

965
00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:54,479
Speaker 2: Is roster's probably capable, of would probably change the way

966
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:57,400
Speaker 2: they feel about this. Season and this, series of course

967
00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:59,680
Speaker 2: helped them to feel that, way but they probably if

968
00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:02,120
Speaker 2: a bat month is, ahead they will Move Max. Scherzer

969
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:04,680
Speaker 2: And i'm wondering how much you are willing to give?

970
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:06,080
Speaker 1: Up, WELL i think that was gonna Be my whole

971
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 1: point here is that as much as we love to

972
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,759
Speaker 1: talk about Getting Max, scherz or so does every other

973
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 1: team In Major League baseball who's. Competing so you're gonna

974
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:15,800
Speaker 1: get into a bidding war over a top of the line.

975
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:18,960
Speaker 1: PITCHER i think The nationals they probably start with Wanting

976
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,080
Speaker 1: Ronnie mauricio or A Brett bady or At Francisco. Alvarez

977
00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:25,440
Speaker 1: AND i don't necessarily think that's crazy for even for a,

978
00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:28,839
Speaker 1: rental especially because the markets can be so like in their.

979
00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:32,360
Speaker 2: Favor, no, DEFINITELY i would compare this trade to THE

980
00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:35,120
Speaker 2: Cc sabathia trade from two thousand and seven or whatever

981
00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:37,160
Speaker 2: that was when he went ballistic for The brewers down

982
00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:39,680
Speaker 2: the stretch and to GET Cc sabathia for just a

983
00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:43,440
Speaker 2: few short, months The brewers sent at the time prize

984
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:47,440
Speaker 2: Prospect Matt. Laporte Matt, Laporta, Yeah Matt. Laporta he was

985
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:49,279
Speaker 2: like a top twenty, five top fifty guy at the,

986
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:51,799
Speaker 2: time one of those classic power hitting first basement that's

987
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,080
Speaker 2: going to carry a franchise in the next. Generation And,

988
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:57,040
Speaker 2: cleveland of course did not see that. Happen but that's

989
00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,759
Speaker 2: a pretty penny for four months of AN ace and

990
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:01,359
Speaker 2: that's what's going to. Cost it's gonna cost.

991
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:02,560
Speaker 1: You With Bret bay and as good as C c,

992
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,240
Speaker 1: WAS i Think Max schurzer is ten times the pitcher

993
00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:06,160
Speaker 1: THAT cec even was that.

994
00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:08,719
Speaker 2: Season well do you remember what CC's matthew did after?

995
00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:10,759
Speaker 1: That i'm, saying like even before, That i'm not talking

996
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:14,000
Speaker 1: about after the trading was. UNBELIEVABLE i remember him stomping

997
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,040
Speaker 1: on he had a couple couple of Good, oh he's

998
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:18,200
Speaker 1: A hall Of. Famer i'm. Not i'm. NOT i think

999
00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:19,960
Speaker 1: it's more of a credit to how Good Max scherzer,

1000
00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:22,239
Speaker 1: is and he really is on another. Level CEC's not

1001
00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 1: a cy young. Guy Max scherzer IS.

1002
00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:26,400
Speaker 2: Cc in two thousand and five through, eight he was

1003
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:28,960
Speaker 2: definitely a sy young. Guy REPEATEDLY cec was incredible and

1004
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:30,520
Speaker 2: THAT cec was still in his physical. PROBLEM i don't

1005
00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:33,920
Speaker 2: want to get to trade he's, Good that's WHAT i.

1006
00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:36,640
Speaker 2: Said i'm just, saying this is an eight caliber guys

1007
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:38,600
Speaker 2: being moved as a. Rental that was the most similar

1008
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 2: TRADE i could.

1009
00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:41,239
Speaker 1: Imagine AND i Think granky had a couple of times

1010
00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:42,760
Speaker 1: too where he was a rental and he was getting

1011
00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:45,239
Speaker 1: thrown around. Two so like, there, this this, is there's

1012
00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:47,160
Speaker 1: stuff to compare it. TO i just don't know if

1013
00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:49,200
Speaker 1: there's as many teams who are actually going to be

1014
00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:51,880
Speaker 1: in on those guys As Max scherzer is this. Season,

1015
00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:54,520
Speaker 1: definitely and that is WHY i think The mets can

1016
00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:58,440
Speaker 1: find significant value in trading for a star they're not

1017
00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:01,880
Speaker 1: Named Max Scherz. Er possible even jumping the market because

1018
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:04,440
Speaker 1: team you can give a little bit, more probably not

1019
00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:06,799
Speaker 1: one of their top three or four, prospects but maybe if,

1020
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:07,800
Speaker 1: so if you get a guy with a couple of

1021
00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:09,640
Speaker 1: years of conrol because team's gonna need the pictcher next year,

1022
00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:12,840
Speaker 1: too and kind of attack the market before the bidding

1023
00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:13,640
Speaker 1: starts for the top.

1024
00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:16,319
Speaker 2: DOG a couple of NAMES i like a lot Are

1025
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:18,240
Speaker 2: kntamea And John. Means.

1026
00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:20,800
Speaker 1: Yeah John means is an interesting one because The orioles

1027
00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:23,040
Speaker 1: are in a, really really weird. Spot their form system

1028
00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:25,239
Speaker 1: is starting to get. Loaded they have another top pick

1029
00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:28,560
Speaker 1: in this, draft but they're seemingly still probably about three

1030
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:31,400
Speaker 1: to four years minimum away from really being a, contender

1031
00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:34,000
Speaker 1: and at that Point John means is going to be

1032
00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:36,279
Speaker 1: probably hitting free. AGENCY i would think around that.

1033
00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 2: Time, no, Definitely John means is going to be hitting

1034
00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:40,719
Speaker 2: arbitration for the first time this year and he's due

1035
00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:43,279
Speaker 2: for a, massive massive race right. Now he's still making, them.

1036
00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:44,719
Speaker 1: Which is, crazy and The orioles love.

1037
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:48,279
Speaker 2: That, yeah because, yeah, exactly but you spend three years

1038
00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:50,319
Speaker 2: making the minimum and then your arbitration. Eligible that's going

1039
00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:51,800
Speaker 2: to be the theme and a lot of these Guys

1040
00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:54,400
Speaker 2: i'm going to talk about about the trade deadline is

1041
00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:56,640
Speaker 2: teams like The orioles who are not competing want to

1042
00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:58,920
Speaker 2: shed money and a guy Like means with three more

1043
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:01,279
Speaker 2: years of, control, like is he really going to be

1044
00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:02,680
Speaker 2: on the next Great. Orioles?

1045
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:04,560
Speaker 1: No AND i think that's part of the reasons why

1046
00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:06,840
Speaker 1: they would be open to hearing what you'd give up for.

1047
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:08,600
Speaker 1: HIM i don't think that he ends up getting moved

1048
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:10,480
Speaker 1: anyway at this, deadline BUT i think if you come

1049
00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 1: to them with an offer they can't, refuse they're gonna

1050
00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:14,160
Speaker 1: pull the trigger every. Time.

1051
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:17,319
Speaker 2: DEFINITELY i think that a team like The, orioles who

1052
00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:19,040
Speaker 2: has a lot of, talent pitching, talent a lot of

1053
00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 2: corner outfield talent who need An Adlie, rushman best catching

1054
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:25,799
Speaker 2: prospect in. BASEBALL a team that is, desperate desperate from

1055
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:28,919
Speaker 2: middle landfield help could move job means For Ronny.

1056
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:31,720
Speaker 1: Mauricio the only thing is can we get better For Ronni?

1057
00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:34,520
Speaker 1: Mauricio is there better out? There? LIKE i, mean could

1058
00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:36,200
Speaker 1: WE i know this is crazy because he's not pitching

1059
00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:37,600
Speaker 1: well even though he started to be, better but, like

1060
00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:39,440
Speaker 1: can we go After Sonny gray then or A Luis

1061
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:42,440
Speaker 1: castillo With Ronnie Mauricio because The reds also need some middle.

1062
00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:45,160
Speaker 2: Infield help definitely very. Badly AND i think that The

1063
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:47,640
Speaker 2: reds will be players that. Deadline but The reds are

1064
00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:49,080
Speaker 2: kind of hot right. Now they just got swept this,

1065
00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:50,799
Speaker 2: weekend but they had won six in a row prior to.

1066
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:53,839
Speaker 2: That their team that at least over the last couple

1067
00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:56,080
Speaker 2: of years has been very willing to, Compete SO i

1068
00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:57,839
Speaker 2: DON'T i didn't put those guys on here BECAUSE i

1069
00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:00,480
Speaker 2: consider them still in it more so than The, twins

1070
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:02,640
Speaker 2: WHICH i Think HE'S aa could be an option, too

1071
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:03,040
Speaker 2: even though.

1072
00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:04,120
Speaker 1: When Zi, berrios is he an?

1073
00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:07,040
Speaker 2: OPTION i was thinking that, Maybe BUT i think that

1074
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:08,960
Speaker 2: the twins might be stubborn because they probably still like

1075
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:11,279
Speaker 2: that roster enough being competitive the last two. YEARS i

1076
00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:13,440
Speaker 2: would Love. BURRIOS i would definitely Train mariso For.

1077
00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:16,080
Speaker 1: Barrios i'd be interested to, See, like obviously we'll never

1078
00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:18,279
Speaker 1: know this, answer BUT i want to know If hefner Wants.

1079
00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:20,440
Speaker 1: BURRIOS i honestly would be really interesting to see If

1080
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:23,799
Speaker 1: heffner wants, him Because barrios has really never, peaked has

1081
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:27,080
Speaker 1: never really hit that expectation that we've like thought he

1082
00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:29,680
Speaker 1: was going, to And hefner had been, there SO i

1083
00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:32,719
Speaker 1: wonder If hefner's like in on this, guy or if, he's,

1084
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:35,000
Speaker 1: like you know, WHAT i don't necessarily believe the.

1085
00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:38,560
Speaker 2: Hype definitely pretty interesting point Because beritos did have two

1086
00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:42,840
Speaker 2: very good seasons With. Hefner there aren't really very different

1087
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:45,200
Speaker 2: than the other seasons he's, had, though second highest camerad

1088
00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:47,719
Speaker 2: he ever had at the, time the lowest walk rate

1089
00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 2: he had before this. Year BUT i don't. KNOW i

1090
00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:52,480
Speaker 2: Think barrios is always just that very solid yet, unspectacular

1091
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:54,600
Speaker 2: AND i think that means is kind of the, same

1092
00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:56,879
Speaker 2: but he'll just come in a much reduced price tag

1093
00:43:57,160 --> 00:43:59,560
Speaker 2: and those guys are basically the same age they strike

1094
00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:01,799
Speaker 2: out a very similar amount of plub of bathers means

1095
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:04,759
Speaker 2: the Lefty briosi's, riety AND i think means actually does

1096
00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:07,680
Speaker 2: have another gear because we've seen The orioles not really

1097
00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:10,560
Speaker 2: get the most out of pitchers consistently until this. Year

1098
00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:12,200
Speaker 2: there's a couple of Relievers i'm gonna mention WHO i

1099
00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:14,920
Speaker 2: like from The, orioles but just Leaving Camden, yards you're

1100
00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:17,719
Speaker 2: gonna have and leaving The Al, east you're gonna see

1101
00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:20,239
Speaker 2: a massive bump in. Production means as a, guy as

1102
00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:21,799
Speaker 2: you could probably tell from listening to the last five,

1103
00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:24,399
Speaker 2: MINUTES i would like to target as The mets three

1104
00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:27,040
Speaker 2: years of. Control happy to pay is our arbitration.

1105
00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:29,200
Speaker 1: Bills he got a Little gosman in him where Like

1106
00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:34,920
Speaker 1: gosman Pitching baltimore In, atlanta In cincinnati all hitters ballparks

1107
00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:36,880
Speaker 1: by a good, margin goes To San francisco and the

1108
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:38,040
Speaker 1: dude's all of a sudden, nasty.

1109
00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:40,799
Speaker 2: Definitely and then just a couple of like lower key

1110
00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:42,799
Speaker 2: Guys i've mentioned, here GUYS i know you, hate but

1111
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:44,000
Speaker 2: GUYS i, know let me guess.

1112
00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:47,840
Speaker 1: One John, Gray, yeah, yeah of course of, COURSE i

1113
00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:49,600
Speaker 1: have no interest in that. Guy i'm so out on.

1114
00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:52,000
Speaker 2: Him you Would you just gave the great logic as

1115
00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:54,000
Speaker 2: to Why John gray can be. Good this guy's a

1116
00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:56,040
Speaker 2: former first round. Pick he doesn't throw ninety eight like

1117
00:44:56,080 --> 00:44:57,719
Speaker 2: he once, did but he still is a pretty good curve,

1118
00:44:57,719 --> 00:45:00,239
Speaker 2: boy stills a slide of the, fastball still. Middling you

1119
00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:01,880
Speaker 2: get the guy on the course, Field i'm sure you

1120
00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:04,000
Speaker 2: can extract value out of. Him he's gonna cost not

1121
00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:04,759
Speaker 2: that much as a.

1122
00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:07,399
Speaker 1: Rental as a, rental, Sure i'm sure you'd probably give

1123
00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:09,520
Speaker 1: up like a mid level prospect kind of thing in

1124
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:12,280
Speaker 1: like that ten to fifteen, range and maybe some money

1125
00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:15,360
Speaker 1: whatever it's gonna. Take i'm more interested In Herman marquez,

1126
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:17,360
Speaker 1: THOUGH i, think like we've seen him go up against

1127
00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:19,919
Speaker 1: The mets and when he's, out of, course he's legitimately

1128
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,920
Speaker 1: a very very good, Pitcher like he has really good,

1129
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:25,799
Speaker 1: stuff has the swing and mis. Capability that's a GUY

1130
00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:27,920
Speaker 1: i would go. After if we're really gonna Target rockies

1131
00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:29,160
Speaker 1: pitchers one hundred.

1132
00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:30,440
Speaker 2: PERCENT i would go after both of. Them If i'm

1133
00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 2: being perfectly honest with, you LIKE i would just LIKE

1134

Speaker 2: i would like to get more pictures on the. Team

1135
00:45:33,640 --> 00:45:35,720
Speaker 2: this team needs a lot more. PICTURES i also mentioned

1136
00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:38,200
Speaker 2: a couple of guys who are kind of. Funny Kyle,

1137
00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:41,080
Speaker 2: gibson's even though his price is probably very inflated because

1138
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:43,560
Speaker 2: because of how good he's been this. YEAR i have

1139
00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:44,719
Speaker 2: so you don't like.

1140
00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:48,120

Speaker 1: them are above.

1142
00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:50,719
Speaker 2: Average LIKE i, DON'T i think there could be something.

1143
00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:52,759
Speaker 2: THERE i Think Merril kelly also could be useful and

1144
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:55,759
Speaker 2: he'll probably cost almost. Nothing Michael, pineda WHO i don't

1145
00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:57,000
Speaker 2: like at, all but he just will.

1156
00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:24,799

Speaker 2: fewest fast balls this, season his most change. Ups that

1158
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:29,040
Speaker 2: change has been his highest with getting pitched all. Season

1159
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:32,120
Speaker 2: he threw eight scoreless innings with eight strike ads against The.

1160
00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:34,680
Speaker 2: Twins he won't cost that much because he is Still Chris.

1161
00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:36,919
Speaker 2: Flexen he still just throws ninety two miles an. HOUR

1162
00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:38,680
Speaker 2: i know you want to go big game, hunting BUT

1163
00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:41,200

1164
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:41,600
Speaker 2: of our big.

1165
00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:43,920
Speaker 1: THREE i really KNOW i don't, either and that's WHY i,

1166
00:46:44,120 --> 00:46:47,200
Speaker 1: LIKE i feel like if we're gonna go after guys

1167
00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:49,799
Speaker 1: that are like, aggressive LIKE i don't want like the

1168
00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:52,840
Speaker 1: guys who, like how good Can Chris flexen really? Be

1169
00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:54,759
Speaker 1: like in this, rotation if he's gonna be here for

1170
00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:57,839
Speaker 1: a couple of, years he's what like the? Five, yeah

1171
00:46:57,880 --> 00:46:59,440
Speaker 1: the four of the five he's death and The met's

1172
00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:03,120
Speaker 1: need really. Better there's gotta be somebody somewhere that's LIKE

1173
00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:05,600
Speaker 1: I i didn't. LIKE i don't know what do you think

1174
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:06,280
Speaker 1: About Like Spencer.

1175
00:47:06,320 --> 00:47:09,000
Speaker 2: TURNBULL i Love spencer, terrible BUT i just don't think

1176
00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:11,120
Speaker 2: The tigers are very likely to let him loose he's

1177
00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:13,600
Speaker 2: got three more years of, control so, similarly he's going

1178
00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:16,960
Speaker 2: to be hitting. ARBITRATION i just think he's a little

1179
00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:19,359
Speaker 2: bit too good compared to the rest of this, quest

1180
00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:21,879
Speaker 2: where he will cause significant prospect copy that's probably gonna

1181
00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:22,160
Speaker 2: cost you A.

1182
00:47:22,239 --> 00:47:25,040
Speaker 1: Jtj, okay that's. FAIR i can see that. Side, YEAH i, mean, like,

1183
00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:28,760
Speaker 1: listen if we Get Chris flexen for whoever's the number

1184
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:31,680
Speaker 1: eighteen prospect in The mets, Organization Carlos, Cortes i'm not

1185
00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:33,879
Speaker 1: gonna lose sleep over. It i'll make that trade every single,

1186
00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:36,640
Speaker 1: day just, because like you, said we do new do need.

1187
00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:40,320
Speaker 1: Pitching BUT i also find myself not wanting to shop

1188
00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:41,920
Speaker 1: in the bargain bin a little bit. HERE i know

1189
00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:44,040
Speaker 1: it's not the bargain, bin but it feels like, IT i,

1190
00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:45,799
Speaker 1: think and a lot Of mets fans will share that same.

1191
00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:47,560
Speaker 1: Sentiment for, SURE i.

1192
00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:49,759
Speaker 2: Would be down to Trade. MARIE i wouldn't trade off

1193
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:54,839
Speaker 2: for us. ME i would Trade mauricio Or baby if

1194
00:47:54,880 --> 00:47:56,759
Speaker 2: the right offer came to the bat where if either

1195
00:47:56,920 --> 00:48:01,920
Speaker 2: it Was surezer and like a kick in or, something

1196
00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:07,400
Speaker 2: or we were getting multiple years Of Barrios Martess. Rains,

1197
00:48:07,520 --> 00:48:10,319
Speaker 2: yeah Like castillo if it's a round a guy WHO

1198
00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:13,120
Speaker 2: i actually think could be a one to, two like

1199
00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:15,759
Speaker 2: not Including, yeah, Course i'm like a traditional rotation one

1200
00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:18,680
Speaker 2: two without the best pitcher in baseball. History SURE i

1201
00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:20,759
Speaker 2: would trade one of those three guys because we in

1202
00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:22,600
Speaker 2: the we have a three Year World series. Window i'd

1203
00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:23,440
Speaker 2: say right, NOW i.

1204
00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:25,800
Speaker 1: WOULD i feel like every team, that like your world

1205
00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:28,000
Speaker 1: series window really is so. Small the only team that's

1206
00:48:28,080 --> 00:48:31,000
Speaker 1: kind of extended as The dodgers because they're just a different,

1207
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:34,120
Speaker 1: beast and maybe even so The. Rays but like it's

1208
00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:36,239
Speaker 1: not realistic to think that you're gonna be A World

1209
00:48:36,239 --> 00:48:38,560
Speaker 1: series contender every single year for like the next Six

1210
00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:41,040
Speaker 1: you have your, window you gotta take advantage of.

1211
00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:43,279
Speaker 2: It definitely another guy on this bargain bin list WHO

1212
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:46,320
Speaker 2: i just, Remembered Dylan, bundy who's been horrific over the

1213
00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:48,839
Speaker 2: last two, months but like there's still the k rate

1214
00:48:48,920 --> 00:48:51,120
Speaker 2: is still, there he still, has the pitches are still,

1215
00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:52,960
Speaker 2: there the movements, there the velasi is. There there's just

1216
00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:56,200
Speaker 2: something technically wrong and no one is really that successful

1217
00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:59,040
Speaker 2: ever In anaheim, Pitching like there's still a multiple piece

1218
00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:01,520
Speaker 2: of clay. There, similarly The, gaussman like we just, MENTIONED

1219
00:49:01,600 --> 00:49:04,399
Speaker 2: i think The mets have an advantage right now over

1220
00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:06,480
Speaker 2: most teams in. Baseball we can get more out of

1221
00:49:06,520 --> 00:49:08,960
Speaker 2: guys other teams get less out. Of AND i would

1222
00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:12,640
Speaker 2: like to use that advantage soon because we need a.

1223
00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:14,560
Speaker 1: Picture, so, yes we definitely need a starting. Pitcher we

1224
00:49:14,560 --> 00:49:16,839
Speaker 1: also need probably a little bullpen. Help it's always. Nice

1225
00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:18,560
Speaker 1: you can't have too many bullpen, arms and there are

1226
00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:21,600
Speaker 1: definitely some arms that are very much. AVAILABLE a couple

1227
00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:23,520
Speaker 1: of guys that you have on, HERE i really. Like

1228
00:49:23,520 --> 00:49:25,560
Speaker 1: i'm a Huge Tanner scott. FAN i saw you write

1229
00:49:25,600 --> 00:49:27,520
Speaker 1: down his. Name i've been hyping him up since last.

1230
00:49:27,560 --> 00:49:30,680
Speaker 1: Year he's a left handed pitcher who throws gas and

1231
00:49:30,760 --> 00:49:33,799
Speaker 1: while he does have some control, ISSUES i like that

1232
00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:37,040
Speaker 1: he's a different kind of lefty Than Aaron. Loop he

1233
00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:39,440
Speaker 1: gives us a different look and he really does just

1234
00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:40,400
Speaker 1: try to shove it down your.

1235
00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:43,399
Speaker 2: Throat, yeah, definitely and The mets need a lefty very

1236
00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:45,319
Speaker 2: very very badly in this. Bullpen AND i think they

1237
00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:48,080
Speaker 2: just need another high leverage guy in, general because as

1238
00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:51,680
Speaker 2: much AS i trust like not, FAMILIAR i don't Trust

1239
00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:54,720
Speaker 2: mili that much as much AS i Trust, Diaz, Lugo,

1240
00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:57,520
Speaker 2: Castron May castro And may have proven to be, inconsistent

1241
00:49:57,560 --> 00:49:59,200
Speaker 2: And lugo is just always going to be a health

1242
00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:01,240
Speaker 2: concern with the part to ourn ucl he's in pitching

1243
00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:03,880
Speaker 2: with for. Years SO i would like to add another

1244
00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:06,560
Speaker 2: high leverage reliever who could throw. Gas AND i listened

1245
00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:09,520
Speaker 2: Another Baltimore orioles. Reliever run here a guy we've made

1246
00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:12,600
Speaker 2: fun of, Previously Cole, seltzler who has just ascended to

1247
00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:14,560
Speaker 2: being one of the most effective believers in baseball this

1248
00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:18,279
Speaker 2: year thirty six percent k, rate, Nuts he's added six

1249
00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:20,279
Speaker 2: inches of drop to his change up compared to last,

1250
00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:22,479
Speaker 2: year and he won't be the. Cheapest he's got four

1251
00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:25,520
Speaker 2: additional years of control after this, one so that's you're

1252
00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:27,400
Speaker 2: getting a long time Of Cole. Saltcer but that was

1253
00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:29,160
Speaker 2: similar to The castra that we got. Him AND i

1254
00:50:29,160 --> 00:50:30,960
Speaker 2: think that This oriols, team much like most of the

1255
00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:32,839
Speaker 2: other bats, teams baseball wants to, sell and we could

1256
00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:36,040
Speaker 2: probably put A saltler a scot of means, together create

1257
00:50:36,080 --> 00:50:38,960
Speaker 2: a package around some middlelandfield prospects that The mets have

1258
00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:41,160
Speaker 2: a couple, of not Necessarily ronn And, mauricio but we

1259
00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:43,480
Speaker 2: do have some middle infield. Guys we can get creative

1260
00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:44,240
Speaker 2: and make something out.

1261
00:50:44,080 --> 00:50:45,480
Speaker 1: Of a NAME i saw that you put on the list,

1262
00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:48,399
Speaker 1: too was Jose. C, snarro WHICH i feel like that's

1263
00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:50,560
Speaker 1: a little bit more of like The Miguel castro. Trade

1264
00:50:50,600 --> 00:50:52,560
Speaker 1: he's a guy who's like he's got the stuff you

1265
00:50:52,600 --> 00:50:55,760
Speaker 1: see it sometimes hasn't gotten the command or hasn't gotten

1266
00:50:55,760 --> 00:50:59,320
Speaker 1: the stats that you've hoped, for but you can clearly

1267
00:50:59,400 --> 00:51:03,000
Speaker 1: see like the top end quality stuff that exists, there

1268
00:51:03,280 --> 00:51:05,000
Speaker 1: and it feels like that'd be another guy to grab

1269
00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:07,279
Speaker 1: if The. Mets what would he even cost, YOU i

1270
00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:08,400
Speaker 1: can't imagine. Anything, no it.

1271
00:51:08,400 --> 00:51:10,600
Speaker 2: Won't cost you. Much probably cost you like your thirteenth ranked,

1272
00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:12,719
Speaker 2: prospect WHICH i THINK i would do that right now

1273
00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:15,120
Speaker 2: in a. Second he's just a live. ARM a lot

1274
00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:16,680
Speaker 2: of the guys that put in this list are live,

1275
00:51:16,800 --> 00:51:19,080
Speaker 2: arms and we need another live, arm AND i trust

1276
00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:22,120
Speaker 2: What hefner can do with a live. Arm another live

1277
00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:24,400
Speaker 2: arm WHO i put on, here who was actually My

1278
00:51:24,880 --> 00:51:28,160
Speaker 2: castro comp from this deadline is a guy Named Cody

1279
00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:29,760
Speaker 2: stashi from The Twin.

1280
00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:31,719
Speaker 1: I've seen the name in baseball cards AND i usually

1281
00:51:31,719 --> 00:51:33,279
Speaker 1: put into the side Because i'm my, god this guy's

1282
00:51:33,320 --> 00:51:35,080
Speaker 1: not gonna be words. Anything, YEAH i think he was

1283
00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:36,759
Speaker 1: like a twenty, six twenty, six twenty seven year old

1284
00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:38,800
Speaker 1: rookie city, kid Though Saint john's.

1285
00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:41,120
Speaker 2: Gray let's. Go that's pretty, cool probably A mets fans

1286
00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:42,960
Speaker 2: if you take that as you. Will he has the

1287
00:51:43,040 --> 00:51:45,359
Speaker 2: sixth most ride on his forcing fastball in.

1288
00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:46,080
Speaker 1: All of the base that's pretty.

1289
00:51:46,080 --> 00:51:48,279
Speaker 2: Impressive. Yeah and WHEN i say ride for the listeners at,

1290
00:51:48,280 --> 00:51:51,080
Speaker 2: HOME i mean vertical movement as a list on. Savan

1291
00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:54,239
Speaker 2: so the fastball that's forcing, fastball it spins so much

1292
00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:56,600
Speaker 2: it looks like it's rides. Sick, yes and he only

1293
00:51:56,640 --> 00:51:58,799
Speaker 2: throws like between ninety and ninety three miles an, hour

1294
00:51:58,840 --> 00:52:01,120
Speaker 2: so it's very peculiar he has, that but it's still

1295
00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:01,680
Speaker 2: getting a lot of.

1296
00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:02,920
Speaker 1: Whiffs is he A Minnesota?

1297
00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:04,719
Speaker 2: Twins yet he Has? Minnesota you want to just have

1298
00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:07,279
Speaker 2: these reunions With Jeremy, hefner don't. YOU i think they

1299
00:52:07,320 --> 00:52:09,000
Speaker 2: have a lot of interesting. Arms, like what CAN i?

1300
00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:10,880
Speaker 2: Say bring him? In let's. Go the guy has a

1301
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:13,600
Speaker 2: thirty five percent K rapley's walking thirty percent of. Guys

1302
00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:16,920
Speaker 2: his slider has like decent specs even though it's not

1303
00:52:16,960 --> 00:52:18,800
Speaker 2: getting the best results in his command looks kind of.

1304
00:52:18,880 --> 00:52:20,640
Speaker 2: Body but this is Very castro asque a guy with

1305
00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:24,200
Speaker 2: a live, fastball not the Vlasita castro, has but the

1306
00:52:24,280 --> 00:52:28,600
Speaker 2: overall pitch dynamics THAT i think the modern baseball coaches

1307
00:52:28,760 --> 00:52:30,400
Speaker 2: want and cove, it AND i think a guy we

1308
00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:33,080
Speaker 2: can do a lot. With, YEAH i, mean like there

1309
00:52:33,080 --> 00:52:36,040
Speaker 2: are so many, arms so The mets at least can

1310
00:52:36,080 --> 00:52:38,680
Speaker 2: be like super they're. Not you can't give up any

1311
00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:41,400
Speaker 2: top prospects for the arms available right now because there's so.

1312
00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:43,920
Speaker 2: Many there's a plethora of reliever, arms which is a

1313
00:52:43,960 --> 00:52:44,640
Speaker 2: great thing for The.

1314
00:52:44,680 --> 00:52:46,959
Speaker 1: METS i THINK i listened. Thirty, yeah, oh there's so many.

1315
00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:48,359
Speaker 1: MORE i, mean like we can't go through all this

1316
00:52:48,360 --> 00:52:49,600
Speaker 1: in the list because we don't want to have like

1317
00:52:49,600 --> 00:52:52,520
Speaker 1: a two hour podcast, here But james literally. HAS i,

1318
00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:56,200
Speaker 1: Mean i'll just ramble through some. Names Tyler, Duffy Ian,

1319
00:52:56,320 --> 00:53:01,600
Speaker 1: Kennedy Kyle, Krick Richard, Rodriguez Chris, stratton like those are just.

1320
00:53:01,520 --> 00:53:01,840
Speaker 2: Some of the.

1321
00:53:01,920 --> 00:53:04,480
Speaker 1: Names there's. More you guys don't even have a, clue.

1322
00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:06,480
Speaker 2: No AND i think the whole point of this, is

1323
00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:08,640
Speaker 2: LIKE i said, before The, mets Their mets are in

1324
00:53:08,640 --> 00:53:10,600
Speaker 2: a position where we know that we can get more

1325
00:53:10,760 --> 00:53:12,960
Speaker 2: out of most of these arms and teams are currently

1326
00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:15,239
Speaker 2: getting like that is a very valuable place to. Be

1327
00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:17,680
Speaker 2: we can take chances on a lot of these guys

1328
00:53:17,719 --> 00:53:19,799
Speaker 2: because we can trust that we can turn them into,

1329
00:53:19,840 --> 00:53:21,799
Speaker 2: something AND i think they will do. THAT i really

1330
00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:23,360
Speaker 2: think that This mets team is going to be aggressed

1331
00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:25,040
Speaker 2: with the trade. ONADLINE i think we're going to make multiple.

1332
00:53:25,080 --> 00:53:27,600
Speaker 2: MOVES i don't know if we're necessarily going to be

1333
00:53:27,640 --> 00:53:30,000
Speaker 2: big game. Hunting it seems Like steve cohnorlu that that

1334
00:53:30,200 --> 00:53:30,920
Speaker 2: is on the.

1335
00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:33,200

00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:10,960
Speaker 1: is a center. Fielder and, unfortunately the only guy that's

1378
00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:14,359
Speaker 1: really available is Like Starling. Marte you could go, after

1379
00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:16,680
Speaker 1: could Tell marte and be, crazy but you're gonna give

1380
00:55:16,719 --> 00:55:19,640
Speaker 1: up Or, buxton but you're gonna give up a ton a,

1381
00:55:19,680 --> 00:55:21,839
Speaker 1: ton and it again those that's if those guys are.

1382
00:55:21,840 --> 00:55:24,560
Speaker 2: Available i'm pretty sure those guys are. Available with a.

1383
00:55:24,640 --> 00:55:27,240
Speaker 2: Guess at Least buxton is like as a. Render buxton

1384
00:55:27,280 --> 00:55:29,360
Speaker 2: feels like you would have to give up so much a.

1385
00:55:29,440 --> 00:55:31,680
Speaker 2: Ton he's a premier player in the. LEAGUE i just

1386
00:55:31,680 --> 00:55:34,880
Speaker 2: don't know if The mets stand to benefit the most

1387
00:55:35,080 --> 00:55:37,080
Speaker 2: giving up that much for an offensive player.

1388
00:55:36,880 --> 00:55:38,360
Speaker 1: Rather And i'm with you on. THAT i think the

1389
00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:40,280
Speaker 1: only guy that interests me a little Bit Starling, martee

1390
00:55:40,280 --> 00:55:42,440
Speaker 1: because he's not an expiring contract he's actually playing a

1391
00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:44,520
Speaker 1: really good center field this, year and he's hitting the

1392
00:55:44,560 --> 00:55:46,560
Speaker 1: ball really. WELL i would think that The marlins would

1393
00:55:46,560 --> 00:55:49,080
Speaker 1: move him again for a mid level. Prospect, AGAIN i

1394
00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:51,160
Speaker 1: don't know what the market's looking like for him because

1395
00:55:51,160 --> 00:55:53,800
Speaker 1: he is one of the few actual center fielders, available

1396
00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:55,880
Speaker 1: but if he, IS i think that should give him a.

1397
00:55:55,880 --> 00:55:56,839
Speaker 1: Call why, not let's see what he's.

1398
00:55:56,880 --> 00:55:58,880
Speaker 2: Got, definitely i'd love to get Starring marte into this.

1399
00:55:58,920 --> 00:56:00,440
Speaker 2: MIX i think he'd be a lightning on top of The.

1400
00:56:00,560 --> 00:56:03,000
Speaker 1: Definitely definitely so a lot of good things. Here in

1401
00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:06,120

1404
00:56:10,440 --> 00:56:13,359
