1 00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:02,440 Speaker 1: Going to pull capsule. 2 00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:09,560 Speaker 2: All right, Welcome back, everybody, Welcome back. We got just 3 00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:14,159 Speaker 2: one more day until baseball returns, and the Yankees are 4 00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:17,560 Speaker 2: jumping right back into the fire, and they are putting 5 00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:20,840 Speaker 2: their win streak on the line against the two time 6 00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:24,840 Speaker 2: defending World champion Los Angeles Dodgers, a rematch of the 7 00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:30,000 Speaker 2: twenty twenty four World Series. From now until early August, 8 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:35,280 Speaker 2: the trade deadline on August third, pretty much every conversation 9 00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 2: is going to revolve around trades unless the Yankees completely 10 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:42,879 Speaker 2: face plant over the next couple of weeks, and honestly, 11 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 2: with the schedule that they've got, you can't rule that out. 12 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 2: I think that there's gonna be a lot of moves 13 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 2: that go down. This is a year where a lot 14 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 2: of teams are in the mix, and the Yankees are 15 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:57,640 Speaker 2: fighting an uphill battle to try and win the division. 16 00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 2: I think they see the American League as winnable, and 17 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:03,240 Speaker 2: I think that they are going to be aggressive here 18 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,280 Speaker 2: at the trade deadline. So I'll give you my completely 19 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,680 Speaker 2: unfiltered thoughts on that on the first half of the season, 20 00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 2: and then we'll wrap things up with some storylines that 21 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,039 Speaker 2: I'm excited to talk about over the next couple of months. 22 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,840 Speaker 2: So here to get you through the next couple of days. 23 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 2: Let's get after it. First of all, I really enjoyed 24 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 2: the home run Derby. I gotta say that was the 25 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 2: best home run derby that we have had in years. 26 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 2: The derby has kind of lost me for a while 27 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 2: because they got away from watching the majestic home runs 28 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 2: and they got more into seeing how many swings a 29 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 2: guy could cram into thirty seconds. It became a speed 30 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 2: home run contest, which I didn't love. So I'm glad 31 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 2: that they finally got away from that. Let us watch 32 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 2: big monsters try and hit the ball five hundred feet again. 33 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 2: That's what I like to see. That one reminded me 34 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:02,279 Speaker 2: a little bit of the ninety three home run Derby 35 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 2: that was my favorite all time. Obviously, twenty seventeen with 36 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,519 Speaker 2: Judge and John Carlo Stanton in Miami was a classic. 37 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 2: Judge basically announced himself to Major League Baseball, into the 38 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 2: baseball world as a superstar in the making, and that 39 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,640 Speaker 2: was wonderful. As for Ben Rice, I was not surprised 40 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 2: that he did not make that much noise in the 41 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:29,239 Speaker 2: home run Derby. I kind of expected it. His swing 42 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:34,080 Speaker 2: really isn't designed for Derby baseball. It's really what Bellinger said. 43 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 2: He's got game power, but he's not a BP home 44 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 2: run hitter. He's got a compact swing. He kind of 45 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 2: lets the pitch create the power. You know, he uses 46 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 2: the pitcher's velocity against him. Good for twenty nine homers 47 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 2: this year and a one sixty six WRC plus. That's 48 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 2: why he's such a good in game hitter. He lets 49 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 2: the pitcher just do his thing and he just uses 50 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 2: it against him. You know, he'll take that fastball the 51 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 2: other way, he'll turn on the down and in pitch 52 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 2: and the dirty be really favors guys who have that 53 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 2: big uphill swing right which you're built specifically for launch 54 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,679 Speaker 2: angles on batting practice fastballs. You know who would be 55 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 2: amazing in the home run derby Spencer Jones. I would 56 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,919 Speaker 2: absolutely pay money to watch Spencer Jones. I would quit 57 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 2: Spencer Jones up against almost any major league hitter right 58 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 2: now in a home run derby. The dude is just 59 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:27,119 Speaker 2: built to hit monster home runs. The guy who absolutely 60 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 2: won me over was Jordan Walker. Forget about the home 61 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 2: runs for a second. His demeanor, his coolness under pressure 62 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 2: was unbelievable. It did not bother him at all that 63 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 2: he had to hit three in a row with the 64 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 2: magenta ball, and he did it. I came away thinking, 65 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 2: if this guy gets into October, watch out, because he seemed, 66 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 2: you know, as that, as Stuart Scott said, as cool 67 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,839 Speaker 2: as the other side of the pillow. All right, let's 68 00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 2: talk trade deadline. The trade deadline is going to be 69 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 2: on everybody's mind. The Yankees have some very obvious needs. 70 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 2: I mean, Austin Wells has hit a little bit better 71 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 2: over the last couple of days. I'll give him that, 72 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 2: but I think Yankees fans have run out of confidence 73 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 2: and they have run out of patience. He's hitting one 74 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 2: to fifty five with six home runs and thirteen RBIs 75 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,719 Speaker 2: and a five to five OPS. And catcher is just 76 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 2: too important of a position to just have no offense 77 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 2: at all. Yes, it's more about defense, but you got 78 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 2: to have some offense. And if it were me, I 79 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 2: think the Yankees should go. If I were the gym, 80 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 2: I would go after a legitimate starting catcher. So I've 81 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 2: seen some names brought up. Let's start with Ryan Jeffers. 82 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 2: He is back in the lineup now. He played two 83 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 2: games with the Twins before the All Star break. He 84 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 2: even picked up a couple of RBIs in his first 85 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,919 Speaker 2: eight at bats, So basically, in eight at bats coming 86 00:04:55,960 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 2: off of surgery, he's driven in fifteen percent of Austin 87 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 2: Wells's season RBI total. That's what you're dealing with here. 88 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:14,480 Speaker 2: Two ninety hitter, right handed hitter, good pop. I'm very, 89 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,839 Speaker 2: very interested in Ryan Jeffers. Another name that people keep 90 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 2: throwing around out there is Hunter Goodman. Mike Francessa made 91 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 2: a point that I agree with. He doesn't think Colorado 92 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 2: is gonna move Goodman because he's young. I mean, he's 93 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 2: only twenty six years old to be twenty seven in October. 94 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 2: But he's got twenty seven homers and they view him 95 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 2: as part of their future. He makes no money, Why 96 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 2: trade him? He's so valuable eight sixty two ops one 97 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,840 Speaker 2: to eighteen WRC. Plus he does strike out a lot 98 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 2: thirty two point two percent of the time, So even 99 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 2: if the Yankees did get him, they wouldn't love that. 100 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 2: He does have one hundred and twenty one strikeouts. He's 101 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,799 Speaker 2: been hot as of late three sixty four. But again, 102 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 2: I do not think that this move will happen. I 103 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 2: just think that, uh, I agree with Francesa that they're 104 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 2: gonna keep him. Victor Carrottini is the name that I've 105 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,599 Speaker 2: seen tossed out there a little bit on social media today. 106 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 2: Hitting two forty seven home runs, thirty five RBIs three 107 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:20,239 Speaker 2: point thirty three on base percentage eighteen point nine percent 108 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,599 Speaker 2: K percentage ninety eight WRC plus, so two percent per 109 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 2: league below league average. A switch hitter, that's something that 110 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 2: I like. He's from Puerto Rico, and I mean he's 111 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,919 Speaker 2: just a veteran guy, thirty two years old, gonna be 112 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 2: thirty three in August. I could definitely see this move happening, 113 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 2: So keep an eye on Keratini. Jonaheim is another switch 114 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 2: hitting catcher that not much of an offensive menace, but 115 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 2: compared to Austin Wells, he's basically a superstar. Two thirty 116 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 2: two average, nine home runs, twenty nine RBIs one hundred 117 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,920 Speaker 2: WRC plus, so exactly league average for the position, and 118 00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:01,840 Speaker 2: waited for the ballpark seven fortyps. Been a little bit 119 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 2: of a funk lately, hitting one fifty eight over his 120 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 2: last five games and over his last ten games hitting 121 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 2: two sixteen with a couple of home runs and nine RBIs, 122 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 2: but again a switch hitter. Just turned thirty one in June. 123 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 2: Adlee Rushman has not come up lately, which tells me 124 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 2: he's probably not going anywhere, to be honest, He's also 125 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 2: slowed down considerably from the offensive side after a hot start. 126 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 2: But he's another guy to keep your eye on. For sure. 127 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 2: He could get moved somewhere, definitely out of the division. 128 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 2: Twenty eight year old catcher, again a switch hitter. A 129 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 2: lot of switch hitting catchers out there. Two fifty three average, 130 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 2: eight home runs, forty seven RBIs, seven sixty three ops 131 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 2: and a one to thirteen WRC plus and a good 132 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 2: strikeout rate fourteen point two percent three twenty seven on 133 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 2: base percentage. She does have eighteen doubles. I've always liked 134 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 2: him as a defensive catcher. To former number one overall 135 00:07:56,400 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 2: pick in the twenty nineteen draft, I don't expect him 136 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 2: to really be an option, but we'll see. I also 137 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 2: don't think that the Yankees are gonna go out and 138 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 2: get Trek Skouble. I think that would be a mistake anyway. 139 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 2: I mean, you're you're talking about emptying the farm for 140 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 2: a guy who's two months away from being a free 141 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 2: agent and who's probably gonna sign with the Dodgers, and 142 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 2: probably gonna sign with the Dodgers for a price that 143 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 2: shuts down baseball for all of next year. It doesn't 144 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 2: make sense to me. And let's be honest, coming back 145 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 2: from surgery, we don't know how this guy is going 146 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 2: to hold up. His stuff is good, he doesn't go 147 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 2: deep into games very often, but I'd be wary of 148 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 2: trading for a guy coming fresh off of surgery. John 149 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 2: Hayman mentioned Mason Miller. The Padres are still in the race, 150 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 2: and so I'm not sure that this makes a lot 151 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:52,559 Speaker 2: of sense. Zero point nine to one era, obviously outstanding 152 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 2: seventy two strikeouts in thirty nine and two thirds innings, 153 00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 2: no home runs allowed, one thirty four batting average against. 154 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 2: And I just don't think that this makes a lot 155 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 2: of sense. Because the Padres have a very aggressive GM 156 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 2: who already paid a huge price to get this guy, 157 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:12,680 Speaker 2: and there are only a couple of games out in 158 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 2: the wild Card. I'd imagine Mason Miller will stay exactly 159 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 2: where he was. Robert Murray was on this very show 160 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 2: talking about Josh Hater. I would love that move. I 161 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 2: don't know how realistic it is, but if I had 162 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 2: to guess, I would say that the Yankees are very 163 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 2: interested if he's available. One point one seven ERA three 164 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 2: to one, twenty five strikeouts missed the first part of 165 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 2: the season. He's appeared in seventeen games. He's only thrown 166 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 2: fifteen in a third innings, but again more than a 167 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 2: strikeout per inning. Uh and one of the nastiest pitchers 168 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 2: in baseball when he is on. If I had to guess, 169 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 2: I would say that going after an arm, Brian Cashman's 170 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:54,719 Speaker 2: gonna do what he usually does, go out and get 171 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 2: somebody that nobody's talking about, maybe somebody who's a borderline 172 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:02,079 Speaker 2: reclamation project that they think they can fix. It's usually 173 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 2: veterans and journeyman. When Cashman does make a big move, 174 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 2: it tends to be for a starting pitcher, or it 175 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 2: tends to be for a big bat. It's clear that 176 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 2: they believe that, you know, good starting pitching and power 177 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 2: are the ways to win in baseball. But one name 178 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 2: that I want to throw out there that I really like. 179 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 2: I really like this guy. He is the antithesis of 180 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 2: the Yankees philosophy, and that is Luis Ariaz. And he 181 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 2: is hitting three point thirty multiple time batting champion. He 182 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 2: has improved defensively since switching to the San Francisco Giants. 183 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 2: He's been working with Ron Washington, so he's the second baseman, 184 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 2: and the complication is obvious. If you bring him in, 185 00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 2: you're probably moving Jazz Chisholm, and honestly, I'm fine with that. 186 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:58,439 Speaker 2: I've watched Jazz over multiple seasons now and multiple postseasons. 187 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 2: I've seen him run as about how good he's gonna 188 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 2: do and all this stuff, and he just never backs 189 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 2: it up. He seems like one of these, you know, 190 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 2: talk the talk, but don't really walk the walk kind 191 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 2: of guy. And we've seen enough of the streakiness, We've 192 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 2: seen enough of the poor decision making. If another team 193 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 2: values him enough to give the Yankees something for him 194 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 2: and you can go out and get Arias, I think 195 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 2: that's a move that will upgrade this offense and possibly 196 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 2: the defense. You know, Jazz has all the athleticism in 197 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 2: the world. I don't know if I trust him defensively 198 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 2: in a big spot to focus so and I'm also 199 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 2: I'm just not convinced he's a postseason player. I can 200 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,439 Speaker 2: see him going one for seventeen in the playoffs again 201 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 2: talking about how he's gonna carry the team to the 202 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 2: World Series. I mean, it just roubs me the wrong 203 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 2: way how much he talks about it but doesn't back 204 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 2: it up. So we'll see. Let me know in the 205 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 2: comments who you think the Yankees are gonna pick up. 206 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 2: Let's go ahead and talk a little bit about the 207 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 2: second half. It does not get easy when the Yankees 208 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 2: open up on Friday night. They're taking on the Dodgers 209 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 2: right away, and the Dodgers, as expected, are nasty. I'm 210 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 2: gonna go ahead and pull up their data real quick, because 211 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 2: once again they are fantastic. They are sixty one and 212 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 2: thirty six to begin the season. They are in first 213 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 2: place in the NL West, and they have a seven 214 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 2: to seventy seven OPS which quite frankly number one in baseball, 215 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 2: which should scare the hell out of you. They have 216 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty seven home runs, so they can 217 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 2: go deep three forty three on base percentage. They get 218 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 2: on base a ton, and they still have a guy 219 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 2: named Shohei Otani, who, if you have not heard, is 220 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:45,199 Speaker 2: quite good. 221 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:45,679 Speaker 3: He is. 222 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 2: He is very very good at baseball. So I mean, 223 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 2: watch out for the Dodgers, This could get ugly. Sho 224 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 2: hey Otani hitting two ninety three with twenty two home runs, 225 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 2: fifty eight r and on the pitching side eight and 226 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 2: two with a one point seven to ninety RA Are 227 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:08,679 Speaker 2: you kidding me? Unbelievable and close and late hitting two 228 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 2: ninety two, don't pitch to him against lefties, hitting two 229 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 2: eighty four against righty's hitting two ninety six. Got power 230 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 2: from both the left against lefties and against righty's nine 231 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 2: hundred plus ops against both. He hits over three hundred. 232 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 2: On the road, He's hitting two ninety four with runners 233 00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 2: in scoring position. I mean, this guy's just an absolute animal, 234 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 2: just an absolute animal. So watch out for him. We're 235 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 2: gonna see Roki Sazaki. It sounds like on Friday night 236 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 2: he has three and five with a five point three 237 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 2: to three ERA, eighty one innings, eighty strikeouts. And let's 238 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 2: take a look at his recent action. So last time out, 239 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 2: six innings, three runs against Colorado. Go through his game log. 240 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 2: So didn't pitch that great against the Padres, gave up 241 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,680 Speaker 2: seven hits and six earned runs. On July second, he 242 00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 2: went four innings, gave up three runs against the Pods, 243 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 2: on the twenty sixth, gave up three runs in five 244 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 2: and two thirds against Baltimore and June nineteen, so you 245 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 2: know he can be hit against the White Sox. Gave 246 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 2: up seven runs in four and a third on June twelfth, 247 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 2: so he can he can be hit. But we're probably 248 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:22,040 Speaker 2: gonna see on Sunday Yoshinobu Yamamoto versus Cam Schlitzler. Now, 249 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 2: Yamamoto leads the team an innings pitched. He's got one 250 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 2: hundred and ten innings pitch this year, nine and six record, 251 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 2: two point eight five ERA. He has been worth every penny. 252 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 2: I thought he might break down after pitching on consecutive 253 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 2: days in the World Series and how much they had 254 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 2: to use him. I thought maybe he would break down, 255 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 2: but he has stayed strong. I mean, credit the javelin baby. 256 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 2: He has been outstanding. He's really good against lefties one 257 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 2: ninety eight they hit against him. Against righty's even better, 258 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 2: they hit one eighty seven. I mean, so they are 259 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 2: just a just a really dangerous team. Leader in home 260 00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 2: runs is Otani, but Andy Pahes and Max Munths he 261 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,600 Speaker 2: Freddy Freeman having a solid year, hitting two ninety with 262 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 2: fifteen home runs. His one hundred and sixty two game 263 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 2: pace is twenty five homers and eighty two our beys. 264 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 2: I mean, the guy's just solid as hell. So we'll see. 265 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 2: But the Yankees open up with them on Friday night, 266 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 2: three game set, and then Pittsburgh comes in. I'd imagine 267 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 2: we will see Paul Skeens in that series. Paul Skeens 268 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 2: this year is eight to eight with a three point 269 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 2: five to seven ERA. He's had some rocky times lately, 270 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 2: but hitters still just hitting two sixteen against him. He 271 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:33,920 Speaker 2: still has one hundred and thirty strikeouts and one hundred 272 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 2: and eight innings won his last time out UH and 273 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 2: last five games five point eight one ERA. Then it's 274 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 2: Philadelphia and you just know that Schwarber and Harper are 275 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 2: gonna be hitting bombs in that series. Just gonna annihilate baseballs. 276 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 2: Schwarber with thirty two home runs already, although it was 277 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 2: fun to watch in the derby, everybody was ready to 278 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 2: celebrate him winning at home and then Jordan Walker just 279 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 2: dunked on them. But the Yankees will also have back 280 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 2: to back series against both Chicago teams, the White Sox 281 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 2: and the Cups. Also we're gonna see Donnie Baseball, who 282 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 2: is managing the Phillies. Yankees are six and five in July. 283 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 2: Right now, they have fourteen to go. I think if 284 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 2: you go seven and seven the rest of the way, 285 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 2: you finish thirteen and twelve. I think you sign up 286 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 2: for that. I think you sign up for that. Three 287 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 2: against LA, three against Pittsburgh, day off, three against the 288 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 2: Phillies in Philadelphia, and then you go to Chicago for 289 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 2: the White Sox and the Cubs to finish out the month, 290 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 2: four against the White Sox, and in the last day 291 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 2: of the month is an afternoon game at Wrigley So 292 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 2: very very interesting. All right, So let's go on and 293 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 2: talk a little bit about the first half. Just my 294 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 2: thoughts having watched the you know, first, what is it 295 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 2: ninety some odd games of baseball? I don't have it 296 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 2: in front of me, but that's fine. How many games 297 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,920 Speaker 2: have we seen? So ninety six games? Thoughts on the 298 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:11,480 Speaker 2: first ninety six games mostly frustrating, Mostly frustrating. The team 299 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 2: has that stretches where they look like the best team 300 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:15,639 Speaker 2: in baseball honestly are one of the best teams, and 301 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 2: then stretches where they look like one of the worst, 302 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,880 Speaker 2: which is about par for the course under Aaron Boone 303 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:25,240 Speaker 2: every year, it's the same thing. If we're being completely honest, 304 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:31,399 Speaker 2: it feels like another first round exit team. Ali B. 305 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 2: Harry says Wild Carter first round exit. I have to 306 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 2: say as of right now, but again, this is not 307 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 2: what the team is going to look like in a 308 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 2: couple of months. They still leave the league in home runs. 309 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,880 Speaker 2: They've had some exciting comeback wins lately. But if we're 310 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:48,400 Speaker 2: being honest right now, they're not a deep playoff team. 311 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 2: They're riddled with injuries. They're three games back. We've seen 312 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:58,159 Speaker 2: this movie before, but some positives. Ben Rice has been outstanding. 313 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:02,680 Speaker 2: He has been outstanding. I think he's exceeded expectations. Cam Schlitzler, 314 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 2: he is a guy you can throw about, you throw 315 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 2: against anybody, a true homegrown ace that they built from 316 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 2: scratch two five ERA nine to five record twenty games started. 317 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 2: I feel like you could throw him against any team, 318 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:22,440 Speaker 2: any lineup, any ace, and you've got a good chance 319 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 2: to win. That's huge, That is absolutely huge. Cody Bellinger 320 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,719 Speaker 2: All Star Game MVP, got off to a good start, 321 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 2: signed that contract with the Yankees. This winter had been 322 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,399 Speaker 2: slow for the last few weeks, but I think he's 323 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 2: starting to heat back up. He had a couple of 324 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,920 Speaker 2: hits against the Nationals on Sunday, won the All Star 325 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 2: Game MVP. I think he's gonna have a good second half. 326 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:47,359 Speaker 2: I think he'll get back in the form. It was 327 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,439 Speaker 2: just a slump. He's a professional, he's done it before. 328 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 2: I think he'll be fine. Paul Goldschmidt proved that he 329 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 2: had something left in the tank. Quite frankly, I think 330 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 2: he's been played too much. He's been overexposed a little bit. 331 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 2: I think he's wearing down. I'm hopeful that this break 332 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 2: will let him recharge, because they need a strong start 333 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:08,640 Speaker 2: in the second half from this guy. We don't need 334 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:12,400 Speaker 2: three months. Give us thirty days of your best baseball 335 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 2: before you ride off into the sunset. But he's already 336 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,280 Speaker 2: beat last year's home run total by fifty percent. He's 337 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:21,920 Speaker 2: got an ops over eight hundred. He's got a WRC 338 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 2: plus of one twenty four. He's been solid, been absolutely solid, 339 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 2: been cold lately, but hopefully heating back up. He went 340 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,399 Speaker 2: deep against the Nationals. The bullpen has had some issues, 341 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:36,400 Speaker 2: but Paul Blackburn has been terrific. Brent Hedrick has been terrific. 342 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 2: I'd love to see the Yankees bring back Luke Weaver. 343 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:43,160 Speaker 2: He's somebody that's been mentioned in impossible trade talks one 344 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 2: point eighty five e er. This year with the Mets, 345 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:51,359 Speaker 2: he is back to being Luke Weaver, and I would 346 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 2: love to see the Yankees reunite with him. Absolutely would 347 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:59,159 Speaker 2: love it. On Hell Chavi maybe figuring things out. On 348 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:02,680 Speaker 2: the downside, Volpi and Austin Wells. I think at this 349 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:06,199 Speaker 2: point you can label both of those guys busts, and 350 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 2: I hate to use the B word. It's not what 351 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:12,159 Speaker 2: you want from a player, obviously from a young player, 352 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:15,400 Speaker 2: but neither one of these guys has developed anywhere close 353 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 2: to what the Yankees envisioned. Jose Cabaliro has been fun. 354 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:23,120 Speaker 2: I love the energy. You just gotta stop making stupid 355 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 2: mistakes on the basis shit off. Ryan McMahon has been 356 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:33,880 Speaker 2: basically exactly what we expected. Great defense, limited offense, two 357 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 2: fourteen hitter, occasional pop, but it seems like he gets 358 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 2: big hits. He seems to be one of those guys 359 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 2: that either when he gets a hit and does something 360 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 2: and electrifies the offense or he's just one of those 361 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 2: guys who comes up in big moments. We'll see Trent 362 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 2: Grisham has delivered some big moments late lately, and you 363 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 2: know he's been solid. Two thirty six average, you'd like 364 00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 2: that to be higher. But ten home runs, forty RBIs, 365 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 2: fifty eight ops one fourteen WRC plus on pace for 366 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,640 Speaker 2: seventeen home runs, basically half of what he had last year. 367 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 2: But heating up two ninety four average over the last 368 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 2: five games, and he was hot before he got injured. 369 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,920 Speaker 2: I think his numbers would look better. I think he'd 370 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 2: have thirteen or fourteen home runs had he not gotten hurt, 371 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 2: because he was red hot when he was when he 372 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,440 Speaker 2: got hurt. Maybe not that many, but he certainly have 373 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:24,879 Speaker 2: a couple of more and a few more RBIs and 374 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 2: he'd probably be in the two forties or two fifties 375 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 2: by now. But he is an X factor for me 376 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,880 Speaker 2: over the next couple of weeks because this is another 377 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 2: guy who's playing for a contract. We'll see it's a 378 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:40,680 Speaker 2: contract a year again for him. Spencer Jones really intrigued 379 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 2: me in his debut. We got to see him finally 380 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,919 Speaker 2: make his major league debut. The swinging miss stuff is 381 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 2: exactly what everybody warned us about thirty one percent strikeout 382 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 2: rate in the minors and in the major leagues close 383 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 2: to forty, if not over forty. But the power is real. 384 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 2: The athleticism jumps off the screen when you're watch it 385 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:06,639 Speaker 2: on TV. The speed and he's smooth. He hits the 386 00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 2: ball so hard that if he just makes more contact, 387 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 2: he's gonna run into more hits. Dominguez I think definitely 388 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:17,679 Speaker 2: is taking a step forward recently. The power has started 389 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:19,640 Speaker 2: to show up more than it did last year. Five 390 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 2: home runs now you want the average to come back up. 391 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 2: He's hitting two thirty five right now. He hit two 392 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 2: fifty seven last year. He's become much better at hitting 393 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 2: right handed over his last five games, hitting three point fifty. 394 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,440 Speaker 2: Still runs the base as well, six tole in bases. 395 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:39,920 Speaker 2: The strikeout rate is reasonable as twenty percent. He's still 396 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 2: got a lot of work to do in the outfield though. 397 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,880 Speaker 2: He is a butcher with lobster hands in the outfield, 398 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 2: just absolutely terrible out there. 399 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:46,880 Speaker 1: Good arm. 400 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 2: The rotation has had its problems. Max Freed has not 401 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 2: stayed healthy. Carlos Rodon has hit the IL twice. Ryan 402 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:57,119 Speaker 2: Weathers and Will Warren have both shown Flashes. Weathers was 403 00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 2: obviously one of the offseason pickups. He's three and seven 404 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 2: the four point one five ERA. He's had some good starts, 405 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:06,160 Speaker 2: he's had some flops last time out against the NAT's 406 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:08,680 Speaker 2: pretty good five and third one and run no walk six, 407 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 2: K's three point four to seven ERA over his last 408 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 2: five games. Uh, we're gonna get Clark Schmidt back at 409 00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 2: some point. We'll see where he is. John Carlos Stanton, 410 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 2: We'll see if he can actually stay alive. Having to 411 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:26,880 Speaker 2: make a slight jog from home the first We'll see 412 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 2: how that works out. And Aaron Judge before he got 413 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 2: hurt was good. He was not peak Aaron Judge, but 414 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 2: he was still productive. Hopefully when he comes back we 415 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,679 Speaker 2: can get something close to the full version. But something 416 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 2: to keep in mind. He has not been doing any 417 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 2: kind of training other than low impact stuff. He's gonna 418 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,360 Speaker 2: still need to get in baseball shape. So even when 419 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 2: he comes back, he might not be the full on 420 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:52,920 Speaker 2: Aaron Judge that we know and love. But two forty 421 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 2: eight with seventeen homers before he got hurt. All right, 422 00:23:57,119 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 2: So quick word from our sponsor factor and then back 423 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 2: to take I got one voicemail and I'll just give 424 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:05,640 Speaker 2: the second half storylines, but quick words from our sponsor 425 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:07,440 Speaker 2: back in sixty seconds. 426 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 4: Many people have this problem. I want to eat healthy. 427 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:14,199 Speaker 4: I have the willpower, I don't have the time and 428 00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 4: the organization. I need help. What do you do? 429 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 1: I mean you go to Factor. I got two boys 430 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,360 Speaker 1: that are looking for the gains and they always come 431 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: in the house which I'm looking for food. Now they 432 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:29,200 Speaker 1: have actual healthy food that is great for them, and 433 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:31,400 Speaker 1: you know what, it's ready in the fridge for them 434 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 1: to pop in and make it right away. 435 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:36,360 Speaker 4: And they have meals built around your goals. It could 436 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 4: be weight loss, overall nutrition gains, more protein, fresh, never frozen, 437 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:47,440 Speaker 4: over one hundred rotating weekly meals, including globally inspired flavors 438 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 4: like Mediterranean and Asian. I get all kinds of different 439 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:54,119 Speaker 4: salads from Factor that I love, quick easy. They can 440 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 4: be ready in two minutes. Head to Factor meals dot com. 441 00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 4: Slash foul fifty off and use code foul FIFTYFF to 442 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:05,200 Speaker 4: get fifty percent off and free daily Green's per box 443 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 4: with new subscription only while supplies last until nine twenty six. 444 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 3: All right, what's up there? Dare from Delaware love the show. 445 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 3: I have to say, I think Dvall has to go. 446 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 3: We need another arm and another bad and I think 447 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:27,919 Speaker 3: we should be good to go, Go y X. 448 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 2: It's funny. Devall was one of the Yankees' biggest pickups 449 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:35,119 Speaker 2: at the deadline last year, and it's been a long, 450 00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:37,520 Speaker 2: arduous journey over the last year. We'll see if he 451 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 2: can turn it around. He's had a good stretch right, 452 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 2: threw the ball well, but I do not trust him 453 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:46,680 Speaker 2: in a big spot. Okay, so let's take a look 454 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:49,360 Speaker 2: at these storylines that we're looking at over the next 455 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 2: couple of months. So obviously the reinforcement's coming, Freed could 456 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:57,880 Speaker 2: be back within the next month, and Carlos Rodin sometime 457 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:02,400 Speaker 2: in that mix too. Carlos Stanton, as I mentioned, he's 458 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 2: either gonna have to learn how to run or he's 459 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:07,440 Speaker 2: gonna have to retire. But he had some PRP injections 460 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 2: in the legs. We'll see if he's able to make 461 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:13,679 Speaker 2: a return. Aaron Judge at some point in August or September, 462 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:17,200 Speaker 2: and then Clark Schmidt coming back at some point. We'll 463 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:20,639 Speaker 2: see how he fits in. George Lombard Junior. He hit 464 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 2: a couple of home runs in his rehab. He's off 465 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:25,879 Speaker 2: to a hot start in that rehab, so we could 466 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,399 Speaker 2: see him this month potentially, well, I mean probably not 467 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 2: this but probably August. We probably could see him in August. 468 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 2: We'll see. But apparently he was closing the gap offensively. 469 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:38,719 Speaker 2: He lost some valuable time here with these fingersprings, and 470 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:42,400 Speaker 2: then you know, it's the last what sixty five games 471 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:47,160 Speaker 2: or so sixty six games of the season. Who won't 472 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:51,440 Speaker 2: be back? Will we have baseball next year? This could 473 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 2: be the last baseball we see for a while. It 474 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 2: sounds like the owners and the players are getting more 475 00:26:56,520 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 2: and more upset with each other, more hostile to each other. 476 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,240 Speaker 2: I do expect they'll play baseball, but I think they 477 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:07,200 Speaker 2: might get right to the brink of not playing it, 478 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 2: and then they'll probably end up just punting, you know, 479 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 2: with some bullshit contract that doesn't really solve any problems, 480 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 2: and we'll do it again in a couple of years. 481 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:21,480 Speaker 2: That's what I'm expecting. But there's a lot of guys 482 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:25,080 Speaker 2: who could be playing their final games as Yankees. Austin Wells, 483 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 2: Anthony Volpi, a couple of first round picks. Will this 484 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:33,239 Speaker 2: be their final games with the Yankees? Trent Grisham. As 485 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 2: I mentioned going to be a free agent, Jazz Chisholm 486 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 2: could be playing his last games, either via trade or 487 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 2: as a free agent. Hitting two twenty three on the 488 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:47,359 Speaker 2: season with a six ninety eight OPS and a ninety 489 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:51,400 Speaker 2: five WRC plus twenty two home run sixty two RBIs 490 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 2: is the pace I think we need better. I don't 491 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 2: think the Yankees are going to resign him. I would 492 00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:59,359 Speaker 2: expect that we're seeing the end of the Jazz Chisholm 493 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 2: era over the next couple of months. Paul Goldschmith, will 494 00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 2: he retire? What will happen with Paul Golchman. We could 495 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,880 Speaker 2: be seeing the last of him, and I imagine we will. 496 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:16,360 Speaker 2: We are so a lot to watch over these next 497 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:19,720 Speaker 2: couple of weeks. Thanks for tuning in, everybody.
