I couldn't even 32 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 2: describe it. Like I when I woke up on Sunday, 33 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 2: I was like, I can't. I can't believe we're doing 34 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 2: this again, like after the way Friday and Saturday's games went, 35 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 2: especially that was the Brewers. It was such visceral flashbacks 36 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,199 Speaker 2: to the first series of the year in March and April, 37 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 2: which is a legitimate lifetime ago at this point, but 38 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 2: that was that was a Seamore Wiener introductions if you 39 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 2: guys remember how long that was. But yeah, it was 40 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 2: this like horrible, like unscalable feeling of I can't believe 41 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 2: they're doing this again while also like still having the 42 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 2: hope resonating. I put the video open Instagram, in Twitter. 43 00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 2: But I went for a walk this morning because I 44 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 2: just like the ring. I was like, I just have 45 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 2: to go for a walk in the rain, like I'm 46 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 2: gonna be planned on my couch watching so many sports today. 47 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 2: I gotta get out of the house. I gotta feel 48 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 2: the air. I need some nature, and the rain honestly 49 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 2: helped it. Just I don't know it was if people 50 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 2: a lot. I think a lot of people quit before Sunday. 51 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 2: I think if you quit, you probably should have never 52 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 2: been involved in this anyway, because that's not how That's 53 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 2: not how this Mets team is, especially like Steve Cohen 54 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,359 Speaker 2: tweet like, it seems resilient, to have been resilient all year. 55 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:25,240 Speaker 2: But oh my god, what a what a battle every 56 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 2: Mets fan fought this weekend trying to will this team there. 57 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 2: I saw so many Mets hat shirts on the streets 58 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 2: the last couple of days, every single person let's go Mets, 59 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 2: like with a couple of quips back and forth saying 60 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 2: things just everybody's locked in. It felt like the team 61 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 2: was gonna completely crumble, fall apart and shrink in the 62 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 2: moment again, but we did not. I'm happy we're here. 63 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: Big question for everybody at home listening, watching whatever it is, 64 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 1: where are we watching the game tomorrow? Anybody got a bar? 65 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:52,240 Speaker 1: Anybody got a suggestion? Somewhere in Yeah, somewhere in New 66 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:56,920 Speaker 1: York City, preferably Manhattan, Brooklyn Queens and like close to 67 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,399 Speaker 1: Manhattan Brooklyn Queens, not like deep out there. We can't, 68 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 1: we're not travel in that far. But anybody have a 69 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: suggestion because we we got a double header tomorrow against 70 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 1: the Braves. Starts one o'clock. Starts at one o'clock. Got 71 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 1: the text from Tyler or McGill. He asked, if we're up. 72 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 1: We'll see if we if we answer or not tomorrow, 73 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: I gotta have a couple of years while we're watching 74 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 1: that game tomorrow. There's no way I can't. It's it, 75 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:18,799 Speaker 1: you know the lebron meme where it's like I can't 76 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: believe this is my life or whatever. That's how I felt, 77 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 1: But it was like the opposite. It was like I 78 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: can't believe this is my life. I can't believe this 79 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 1: is happening again. We're going to Atlanta with our season 80 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: on the line is deja vu. I've seen this so 81 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 1: many times before. We've seen this too many times as 82 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: a Mets fan. And the one thing I will say 83 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 1: is the sicko, the insane mentally disturbed person in me 84 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 1: is like, Oh, we got this. We're gonna We're gonna 85 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 1: do it. We're gonna win one of these two games 86 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: without a doubt. I feel weirdly confident again going into it, 87 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: and I think because of how badly they played the 88 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: one game in Atlanta plus the two games in Milwaukee 89 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 1: to start the series, I was like, oh shit, ah 90 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 1: may maybe we just don't got it like that. And 91 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 1: then Sunday for David Peterson to just step up, Oh 92 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 1: my god. We'll talk about him a little bit more 93 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: in depth, but to just give us that performance. And 94 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 1: then Lindor Iglesias, JD Martinez, Jadie Martinez hit the ball hard, 95 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 1: got a couple hits off. The Schneid guy stepped up, 96 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 1: Francis Gualverez, big hits like it was just that was 97 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 1: the Mets baseball we had seen since June first, when 98 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: they made that huge change, and that was the Mets 99 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: scene that we'd been accustomed to watching, and it was 100 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 1: good to see them get back to there, because I 101 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 1: was genuinely concerned that if they got off to a 102 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 1: slow start on Sunday, that was gonna snowball and it 103 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 1: was gonna be seasoned over. 104 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 2: I think Lindor just said, I'm not gonna let us 105 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 2: go up to a slow start, Like he draws his 106 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 2: vide was sick. He draws the walk the first bat 107 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 2: of the game, he steals second base. Immediately he comes 108 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:45,479 Speaker 2: around to score in the single by Nemo. He was 109 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 2: so believed he came round of the score he basically 110 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 2: fucking crawled to Mark Fiantos, who helped him up because 111 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,159 Speaker 2: his back is so fucked. It's like he this is 112 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 2: why you have like this is why you pay a 113 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 2: play at thirty million dollars a year. This is why 114 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 2: you have these like franchise cornerstone type superstars on your rosters. 115 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,040 Speaker 2: Why they're so valuable to a baseball team. Because the 116 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 2: Mets play the game on Sunday, where they would have lost, 117 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,160 Speaker 2: they would have been cooked. Season would have been over, 118 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 2: not literally proverbially, it would have been fucking over. For 119 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 2: him to just not allow his team to get off 120 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,479 Speaker 2: to a slow start like that's that superstar level shit, 121 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 2: like that's that's specially that's the things you dream about. 122 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 2: And then again you mentioned Peterson. Keith had a quote 123 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 2: about Peterson this game that stuck with me that thought 124 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 2: was really really really cool. He said his teammates will 125 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 2: always remember this start and look at him differently because 126 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 2: of it. And I think that's the truth. Like the 127 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 2: David Peterson legacy has been like a legacy is a 128 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 2: legacy is a big time word for Dave Peterson, But 129 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 2: it's the game though it was a legacy game. What 130 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,600 Speaker 2: he's done this year has dramatically changed the way I 131 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 2: think he's he's gonna be. He has been viewed by 132 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:39,679 Speaker 2: Mets fans and likely will be viewed for Mets fans, 133 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 2: but showing up this game on Sunday, this is one 134 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:43,680 Speaker 2: that will be remembered for a long time, Like this 135 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 2: goes down the lore with John Mayne, you know, and weirdly, 136 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 2: Johann Santana's He's like second last day of the season, 137 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 2: just unbelievable gems because he he was he I'm not 138 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 2: gonna say it was perfect. He wasn't perfect, but the 139 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 2: game one hit was an infield single, like he was 140 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 2: absolutely locked in from the get go, Him and Lindor 141 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 2: and basically him and Do are the ones that willed 142 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 2: the Mess to this victory. And we're not in this 143 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 2: place having this happy, slightly happy, relatively cheerful podcast a 144 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 2: Sunday night where we're literally in a ditch somewhere, we're 145 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 2: freaking out, we're miserable if those two guys don't do 146 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 2: what they did, because they did it so fucking well. 147 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 1: I don't think it'd be understated how huge that was 148 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 1: for David John Peterson to pitch like he did on Sunday. 149 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 1: Like you said, it changes his middle name. I don't know, 150 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 1: because I see it on I see it on dot com. 151 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:25,839 Speaker 2: David John Peterson the same thing to do. 152 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 1: Why why is that insane? Is the next player you 153 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 1: reference use their middle name too? Okay, next player I reference, 154 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 1: I'll use their middle name. But David John Peterson dj 155 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:37,160 Speaker 1: P is I know. He was just so so good, 156 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 1: so in control, got out of a couple of jams. 157 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 1: When he got into them, there was no jams. 158 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 2: There was there was one. 159 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 1: There was one. There was the one jam or whatever 160 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 1: where it was like a couple of guys. Remember he 161 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 1: walked the guy first and second then we had Firstyeah, 162 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 1: I think he an infield single, and then it was 163 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: a walk and that was it. 164 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 2: That was I guess. But you said jams. You said jams. 165 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,679 Speaker 2: There was a singular jam. He was fucking awesome. 166 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 1: He was awesome. And you look at his full season numbers, 167 00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty one starts, two point ninety ra 168 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 1: a ten and three record. I know we're not a 169 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 1: record podcast, but David Peterson won a bunch of games 170 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 1: for the Mets this year. They won a lot of 171 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 1: games when he was on the mound. He was phenomenal, 172 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 1: and I think everybody in Mets world, ourselves included, just 173 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 1: did you just got a guy? Will get a little 174 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: tip of the cap to David Peterson because he was 175 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 1: He was phenomenal. An incredible season for him, but he 176 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,559 Speaker 1: did everything that he possibly could, and, like you said, 177 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: on the pitching side, willed us to win this game, 178 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 1: which was just something I didn't think i'd be saying 179 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 1: about David Peterson this year. I honestly did not believe 180 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: in him like this. 181 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 2: The big thing about Peterson that I think I've been 182 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 2: seeing and noticing this year he's gone on this route, 183 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 2: is that when he has the high four seing fastball 184 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 2: working and he's locating that the way he wants to 185 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 2: do it, you can kind of sit back and be like, Okay, 186 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 2: it's gonna be a good David Peterson start. I only 187 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 2: threw one fastball in this game below the belt, and 188 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 2: I think that was intentional because it was a pitch 189 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 2: that was dotted against. I guess Eric hast no that 190 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 2: weird seventh thing at bat when he came up. It 191 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 2: was just he had those. He had the four seamers working. 192 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 2: The sliders were good, the sinkers were good. Like every 193 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 2: all five of the pitches, the change up, the changeup 194 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 2: cluster and his pitch chart from this game is beautiful. 195 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 2: It was every single one was bang right here in 196 00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 2: the bomb the strikes round about two hunch underneath. It 197 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 2: was just he didn't he didn't really miss at all, 198 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 2: like the whole game. It's it's it's amazing to have 199 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 2: thought back to like earlier this season, or even three 200 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,679 Speaker 2: and a half months ago, to be like your biggest 201 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 2: start of the season, like the biggest game of the season, 202 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 2: like who's gonna be on the mound, Like who's gonna 203 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 2: be the clutch player they bringing the victory. It was 204 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 2: fucking David Peterson. I like, I had a weird colm 205 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 2: before this game. I think for that reason, also just 206 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 2: because I didn't think that's gonna lay down and fully 207 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 2: get swept, like it looked like they were going to 208 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 2: on Friday and Saturday. But the Peerson star was a 209 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 2: big reason why. It's just he I again, we have 210 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 2: to make the playoffs just to get for us to 211 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 2: really like lock this in and be like, this was 212 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 2: David Peterson game. But also I just mentioned that John 213 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,200 Speaker 2: Mayne and I was about to say games we missed 214 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 2: the players both of those years, you know, like I 215 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 2: think we'll always remember as Mets fans, like it wasn't 216 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,079 Speaker 2: Tom Glavin, it wasn't Time Glad, that David Peterson started 217 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 2: in Milwaukee, and that fateful Sunday in September. 218 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: It wasn't Max Schurz, or wasn't Chris Bassett. Those guys 219 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 1: stepped up here and there's all. 220 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,840 Speaker 2: There's also a Milwaukee Brewers lineup that had Isaac Collins, 221 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 2: Blake Perkins, no Jake Power. I'm saying you take that back. 222 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 1: There's no slander the Brewers lineup today. 223 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 2: There was there were zero regulars that had a hundred Donalds. 224 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 2: He came out of the game. Yeah, it's just again 225 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 2: like I think another part of that too is Colin Ray. 226 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:12,719 Speaker 2: Like we're like, wow, the Mets offense finally broke out. 227 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 2: Colin Rays is is a he is he's like big 228 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 2: time back and star of their oat meal. But he's 229 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:19,680 Speaker 2: not exactly like a good starring Pictering. He's been worst 230 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,320 Speaker 2: had season's gone on. Eight of the net nine Mets 231 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 2: regulars in the lineup had a hard hit ball of 232 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 2: Colin Ray. The only one that did not was Starling Martell, 233 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 2: who bought it twice. Yeah, so it doesn't really count. 234 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:29,719 Speaker 2: So basically every single method the side of swing, the 235 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:30,959 Speaker 2: bat of the hard hit ball of Colin Ray. We 236 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 2: had ten hits against him. Like the lineup was cruising 237 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 2: the door. Iglacias Glacier twenty eight history, Like, how does 238 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:36,440 Speaker 2: this happen? 239 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 1: What do you freaking out about? It? Interesting? I know 240 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 1: I was getting ready to talk about Julio Daniel Martinez. 241 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,560 Speaker 1: There you got julio' Daniel three hard hit balls on 242 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 1: the day. So I've never actually really looked at the 243 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,839 Speaker 1: stackcast metrics per swing like during the game and on 244 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 1: his double, He had his fastest swing of the game 245 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 1: at eighty four point four miles now on his flyout, 246 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 1: seventy four on his single sixty nine point seven. I 247 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: don't know why I didn't track the lineup out for 248 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: his bat speed on his fourth at bat, but three 249 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 1: out of four balls that he hit today hard hit. 250 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 1: The double was the one which wasn't hard hit, which, 251 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 1: go figure, that's that's so funny. But it hit the base, 252 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 1: of course. But the thing with JD, like him him 253 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 1: just hitting, him being a productive player in this lineup. 254 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:16,599 Speaker 1: You see how much longer it makes this line You 255 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: see how much harder it is for the pitchers because 256 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 1: then you have JD and Alvarez swinging the back grate, 257 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,199 Speaker 1: Pete not swinging the back grates. Right now, there's a 258 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,199 Speaker 1: couple guys that are definitely still a little bit in 259 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,839 Speaker 1: a slump. We got two more games for the rest 260 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 1: of the season. It's time to wake up or shut up. 261 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: That's pretty much. And I think this team I feel 262 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 1: a hell of a lot better how they responded today 263 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 1: than how I did the first two games of a series, 264 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 1: because it felt like, oh shit, it's happening again. 265 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I threw out the tweet when I was I 266 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 2: had a few beverages on Saturday night. Happy ch my 267 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,679 Speaker 2: buddy Corey, Happy Birthday turned thirty was a pretty bad. 268 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 2: Part of the guests was just watching the Mets on 269 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 2: my phone most of the time, and then just and 270 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 2: then Irish exit the party at twelve thirty because I 271 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 2: was like this two tomorrow too big of a day. 272 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 2: I know, I know Corey likes tale all hours the 273 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 2: night and and drink unguidly amounts of alcohol that he's 274 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 2: a tank. But I knew I couldn't do it. But 275 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 2: I set down a tweet describe the Mets in one word, 276 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 2: and I got some crazy responses. I got despondent, I 277 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 2: got pain, I got torture, I got scared. I got infuriating, consistent, edgy, depressing, clusterfuck, maddening, chokers, frustrating. 278 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 2: Someone said two balls, blue ball, two words, blue balls. 279 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:22,560 Speaker 2: Someone just said chokers again, a lot of chokers. Futility 280 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 2: our buddy d I d one c k A r 281 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 2: Us just put up that that funny, hazy picture of 282 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,319 Speaker 2: like the hammer, the whiskey and the end the pistol, 283 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 2: Like it's just outmatched, predictable, entropy, good one from Upstate 284 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 2: Mets right there. Yeah, limp, a lot of limp. Yeah, ageah, 285 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,320 Speaker 2: But like that's it's amazing. Baseball is the best because 286 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 2: the tide can change so quickly. One day, twenty four hours. 287 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 2: You and I lamented this morning before the game starts. 288 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 2: You came over. We were like, this is this could 289 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 2: be the worst thing ever that happens right now? How 290 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 2: could this happen again? I also mentioned to JD, I 291 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 2: really want to Applaudcross from Dose and give them a 292 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 2: lot of credit with give the credit all the time 293 00:11:58,000 --> 00:11:59,719 Speaker 2: for sticking with JD and the reason he stuck with 294 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 2: j D. Today he was like, we signed him for 295 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 2: these kind of games. He's a veteran, he's been there before. 296 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,079 Speaker 2: But that's that's all the right shit. And that definitely 297 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 2: helped JD's mindset a lot, because he just went through 298 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 2: basically the worst slumping team history besides her fucking ray 299 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 2: Ardonia as you couldn't hit anything. Ever, he was not 300 00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 2: in the steeve, was one of the worst hitters in 301 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 2: the history of Major League Baseball. But it was cool 302 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:17,559 Speaker 2: and Mendos did that also, It's like that's good and 303 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 2: onlyical thinking like just because the guy was, oh for 304 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 2: thirty four whatever fucking wounded up as just because you 305 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 2: didn't GT hit, yesday's not me. You're gonna get hit the 306 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 2: next day. So that's it. Good that they stuck with him. 307 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 2: If the Mets are gonna feel their best nine, they're 308 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,080 Speaker 2: blind for their best nine players. He is in it. 309 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 2: Mendoz Consterns have kept using that phrase best nine, best nine, 310 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 2: best nine. It's him, So I give both them credit 311 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 2: for sticking with it and doing that. 312 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, it was. It was great cejd swinging the bat. Well, 313 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 1: great to see the Mets win that game. It was 314 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 1: so monumentally important for them because if they didn't win 315 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 1: that game would have gone into Atlanta needing to win two. 316 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:48,959 Speaker 1: H And I'll tell you what, winning two definitely a 317 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 1: lot harder than winning. 318 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 2: Wasn't gonna happen, No, it was not. All Right, we're 319 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 2: gonna keep running around here, but first quick ad for 320 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 2: your guys. 321 00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 1: All right, and we're back talking a little bit more 322 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 1: about this Mets Brewer series. The weird thing about doing 323 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 1: these podcasts is that we miss sometimes like the very 324 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 1: important things that go on at the beginning because the 325 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 1: beginning of this series. He had Ramonde Jesus behind the 326 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 1: plate in Game one, tossing Carlos Mendoza and and bumping 327 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 1: Mendoz early in the game, and while Keith was being 328 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 1: like weird about it and still siding with the umpires 329 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: like he has all year, which was bizarre. I loved 330 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 1: what Ron said, and he was like one, Ramondejzus is 331 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 1: a terrible umpire. He's like two. He's got to know 332 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:29,440 Speaker 1: the magnitude of this game and how important it is. 333 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 1: He can't have that short of a fuse like he 334 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 1: always does. He has to understand the moment, has to 335 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 1: understand the experience. I know you're not supposed to argue 336 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 1: balls and strikes. One. Ramondejzus was awful. He was horrendous. 337 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 1: He's a terrible umpire. He's never been good. Absolute dog 338 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 1: shit behind home plate Mendoza game out there, got mad 339 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: at him, scream to him because it was an insane 340 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 1: strike three call on Franciscuilvrez, who saw seven balls that 341 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,439 Speaker 1: at bat, three of them were called strikes. They weren't 342 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: even close. He went out, screamed to him. But the 343 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 1: problem was Ramondejzus bumping him and he was like, Ron 344 00:13:57,880 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 1: was like the bump of him is insane, like the 345 00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,440 Speaker 1: umpire initiate that he came into that saying, I'm gonna 346 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: throw someone out of today's game. If they give me 347 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,319 Speaker 1: any lip, if they give me any sort of back backlash, 348 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put them in their place, because everybody's here 349 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: to watch me. And I thought a good note that 350 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:12,679 Speaker 1: people on Twitter were making was it's so funny how 351 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:14,840 Speaker 1: the umpires they love to be the start of this game, right, 352 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:16,319 Speaker 1: I mean, that's why you watch, right. You want to 353 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,599 Speaker 1: see romoone Hajesus behind home plate. Why don't think I 354 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 1: press conferences at the game. I'd love to hear them 355 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: answer questions like the players and coaches. I think that 356 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 1: would make a lot of sense. But instead they hide 357 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 1: behind the union and they do nothing. They say nothing. 358 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 1: They hide an inanimity after they get off the field, 359 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 1: but when they're on the field, it's all about them. 360 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 2: I think a lot of Mets fans matls. Remember we 361 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 2: have some history of the Ramonde DeJesus. You guys might 362 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 2: remember again he uh he threw Horry Lopez out of 363 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 2: the game and the day before the Fateful Glove toss ejection. 364 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 2: I'm the worst teammate in all Major League Baseball, so 365 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 2: that and also I remember at the time it just 366 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 2: wasn't the moment to bring it up to talk about this. 367 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 2: The call that Hory Lopez arguing that guy I'm injected 368 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 2: was that it was a check swing from someone on 369 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 2: the Dodgers, and Ramone DeJesus didn't all didn't call to 370 00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 2: the to I think it was the first base umpire, 371 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 2: so he made you call himself. De Hazers was at 372 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 2: third base and they called. They called down to him 373 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 2: and he just stood there. I don't have to tell you, 374 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 2: and he was like, this. 375 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 1: Is your fucking job, dude, do your job. Why are 376 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 1: you acting like such a tough guy. This is why 377 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 1: you're here, shout Jerry buff Is. After the game on 378 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 1: s N y two, I'll hair all its glory. He uh. 379 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 2: He went off and Ramanda Hayesus, I'll pipe in the 380 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 2: clip here right now. 381 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,200 Speaker 3: De Haesus got in his face and bumped in him 382 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 3: and came towards him. That just shows me that you 383 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 3: have such thin skin that you know you're not good 384 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 3: at your job and you just. 385 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 1: Throw the guy out. 386 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 3: No, you can't talk to me. Uh, this is a 387 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 3: tough like just an overall brutal game from him, and 388 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:35,720 Speaker 3: not the first time he threw Jorge Lopez out earlier 389 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 3: in the season on a really bad check swing call 390 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 3: from when he was at third base and threw him 391 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 3: out from the mound right away, Like he just this, 392 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 3: it might be too much for him in the big leagues. 393 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 3: And by the way, he can't handle it, and this 394 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 3: might be too much. 395 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 2: That that unbelievable cutthrow comment to say, maybe you're just 396 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 2: not ready for this level of Major league baseball. It's 397 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 2: I want to preface all that is not preface because 398 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 2: the end is not preface. I've got I can't believe 399 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,720 Speaker 2: what we do. I can't be bront But we're in 400 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 2: a war, dude, this is it. 401 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 1: Say goodbye to the women and children, give him a 402 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 1: kiss good night, Tell them I'll see on Tuesday. 403 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 2: We're at war, waking up for battle. But where's that 404 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 2: even going with that? Jerry Blevins talking about Ramondees, who's 405 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 2: cut throat? Oh, it's lame as fucked to complain about 406 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 2: the umpires in any sport anyway. It's like again, Fristis 407 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 2: Squalivers took that ball. It should have been a strike. 408 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 2: You know that physic Gulifers walks, that game doesn't change. 409 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:27,160 Speaker 2: We still lose that game. Basic probably set seven times 410 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 2: at ten. If fristic Guelphs draws that walk, it doesn't 411 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:32,280 Speaker 2: even bring in a run. We still lose that game 412 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 2: seven times at ten, maybe even maybe even four times 413 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 2: out of five. That being said, it's fun to take. 414 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 2: That was horrible. That was one of the worst games 415 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:40,240 Speaker 2: that a lot of us have ever seen. Like it 416 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 2: was great to get the universal baseball thing together, but again, 417 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 2: it's lame as shit to argue to complain about the 418 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 2: umpires because every team at both teams are the same 419 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 2: umpire balls and strikes. It's it's such a nominal little 420 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 2: part of baseball. Okay, all this ship will add up 421 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 2: and butterfly effect change the game. But very lame thing. 422 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 2: And this was after a week that Like again I 423 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 2: think it's in this part of me hand ups lay 424 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 2: weather to blame. 425 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 1: The umpire for the loss. I think it's not lame 426 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,119 Speaker 1: to complain. You're allowed to complain. Everybody's allowed to complain 427 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:07,360 Speaker 1: in America. Blame you can't believe people were lost, Yeah, 428 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 1: people like blaming the umpire, like I can't believe he 429 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 1: has umpire cost this game. It didn't cost you the game, 430 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 1: you seum. 431 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 2: And I pitched like shit, we didn't hit it at all, 432 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 2: Like we cost ourselves the game. Blame is shit to 433 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 2: be blamed. But again complaining, you're right, difference and blaming complaining. 434 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:19,159 Speaker 2: But I think that was like a shift in the 435 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 2: Mets that happened between Sunday and Saturday, where it's just 436 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,560 Speaker 2: like we have to we really have to refocus right now. 437 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 2: It's very important that we get our heads back in 438 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,360 Speaker 2: this game. It was a weird It was very weird 439 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 2: week for the Mets, the fact that they came from 440 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,640 Speaker 2: this insanely emotional week of playing at home, winning six 441 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:36,280 Speaker 2: out of seven games, getting themselves firmly back into the 442 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:38,159 Speaker 2: playoff picture. Not back in a playoff picture, but like 443 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 2: really just responding, like taking the ball by the horns 444 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:43,080 Speaker 2: and like basically demanding the playoff spot and then playing 445 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:46,640 Speaker 2: one baseball game in four days while taking three flights, 446 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:48,960 Speaker 2: Like in what world do you take more flights and 447 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,520 Speaker 2: play baseball games like that? That's insane, Like it's it's hard. 448 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 2: Baseball is such a rhythm game, and we were in 449 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 2: such a rhythm and it's really hard to kind of 450 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 2: have this like stop and start herkie jerky thing going 451 00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 2: on again. Also non excuse, but just it was a 452 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 2: weird week for the Mets. Just refocusing on Sunday, led 453 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,679 Speaker 2: by Lindor and Peterson, it was just really nice and 454 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:07,959 Speaker 2: comforting to see the team be able to respond this one. 455 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, especially because Saturday they completely shit the bet. I 456 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:12,120 Speaker 1: mean that was one of the worst baseball games ever. Yeah, 457 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 1: that was that was actually torture. That was a painful watch. 458 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 1: There was nothing enjoyable about watching that game on Saturday. Again. 459 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: Tip the cap a little bit to Jose Kintana. I 460 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:21,119 Speaker 1: think he did a fine job. Great. I think he 461 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 1: pitched great. Yeah, completely not on him. I think he 462 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 1: shruck out like ten batters in four inning. He's like 463 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:28,159 Speaker 1: Kintana again, that's a That's a great job from a 464 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,120 Speaker 1: guy who me and James in a couple off signs 465 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 1: ago the one player that we ever spoke about in 466 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 1: a rumor while we worked for the New York Mets. 467 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:39,399 Speaker 1: We were like, we don't want Jose Kintada. That's the 468 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:42,440 Speaker 1: one guy they signed. It's so funny how that ended 469 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:44,880 Speaker 1: up working out. But the legacy start for Jose Kintana 470 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:46,360 Speaker 1: the Mets. He did a really good job, had a 471 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 1: great last month of the year. Really can't ask for 472 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 1: more from him. 473 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:51,720 Speaker 2: No, it's just that fucking blop single by Joey Ortiz. 474 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 2: But again, he pitched great. The one thing that was 475 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 2: really troubling about Saturday not just the fact that the 476 00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 2: Mets as a team only had one extra base hit 477 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 2: and Ben did nothing with it and did two to overall. 478 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 2: Even Pete reached on the air like I think was 479 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 2: in the fourth and then bang bang bang Marte Torren's 480 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 2: baither everyone got out immediately. But the worrying thing is 481 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,679 Speaker 2: probably the re Garrett implosion. Yeah, that's that scary to 482 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 2: me because he was a guy who had worked his 483 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 2: way back into the into the the trust tree, and 484 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:17,560 Speaker 2: now I think he might not be in it anymore. 485 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 2: And the fact that we're playing five baseball games in 486 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,199 Speaker 2: four days, like we just it just we need all 487 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,640 Speaker 2: hands on deck and it was a lot. And also 488 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 2: something else that was weird, not from this game, but Sunday, 489 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 2: and we were talking about in the moment edwind Dias appearance. Yes, 490 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 2: winding up throwing twenty six pitches and then one of 491 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 2: his fastballs being only ninety four point five miles an hour. 492 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 1: I think I think we're looking into the fastball thing 493 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 1: a little bit too much. The reason being is because 494 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 1: he did just he got it back up to like 495 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 1: ninety nine I think a couple of times in the game. Yeah, 496 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 1: And I think and I think this is where like 497 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 1: the side the bringing him in was awkward was because 498 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 1: I think he's his head, He's like, I'm getting my 499 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 1: work in. We're just like I'm throwing a bullpen basically, 500 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 1: And I think that's like why it was like ninety 501 00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:58,880 Speaker 1: four ninety five. Just damn. I wish I could coast 502 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 1: it ninety five. That'd be so to just get out there. 503 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 1: But I throw a strike ninety five miles an hour. 504 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 1: But yeah, I get the decision because the Mets physically 505 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 1: needed to win this game on Sunday. This was a save. 506 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 1: You need to get it. There's like, I know, it's 507 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 1: not a save in terms of SATs, but that was 508 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 1: the same because if you blow that game, then you 509 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 1: bring it takes over. Season's over. You have to win 510 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 1: to in Atlanta, and now you don't have Edwin Diaz, 511 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: you don't have all this kind of stuff. He's obviously 512 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:24,199 Speaker 1: gonna be available tomorrow twenty six pitches. Season ends if 513 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 1: you don't play it past Monday, So keep on throwing 514 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: out there. And I think Edwin does like to throw 515 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 1: a lot more often than most pitchers, but would have 516 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,200 Speaker 1: preferred if he maybe threw I don't know, fifteen pitches, 517 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 1: or if if he threw zero and we won the game, 518 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 1: that would have been really great. 519 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:40,400 Speaker 2: I think there probably was something like you said about 520 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 2: the bullpen thing, where he's like, I'm gonna come in, 521 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna take it easy, but I'm only gonna 522 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 2: go like eighty percent. Yeah, And I think he might 523 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 2: have realized, I just I can't do that like that. 524 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 2: I can't do it. It's like I don't know how 525 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 2: to pitch eighty percent. Like That's why it's always weird 526 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 2: to me, like in these like spring training starts for 527 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 2: these relievers where it's like you can't like you're you're 528 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,160 Speaker 2: not gonna have the same I guess you will say 529 00:20:58,160 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 2: you could have the same mechanics, but it's just the 530 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:01,439 Speaker 2: whole process different. So I think that he kind of 531 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 2: had to be like I'm just gonna blow it out, 532 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 2: of course as woman to do, but I will I 533 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 2: would much prefer to have like a thirteen pitching this 534 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 2: streck out of the side for seven swings and misses in 535 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 2: one inning of work. Just for a frame of reference, 536 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,199 Speaker 2: Dave past and pitch seven ings with eight strikeouts. I 537 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 2: got eight wing only got eleven swings and misses. So 538 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,439 Speaker 2: that's just like a little sensible out there. But I 539 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 2: didn't I didn't like seeing ninety four point five in 540 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 2: the rail gun, but then also through a ninety one 541 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 2: mile and iur was slight like seven pitches later, Yeah, 542 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:24,160 Speaker 2: through probably two of his best litters of the entire year, 543 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 2: which is awesome. 544 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 1: I love to see that. 545 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:27,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, It's just I almost think right now the Mets 546 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 2: are gonna benefit from being just this, the fact that 547 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:33,679 Speaker 2: how completely fucking insane this is. Yeah, Like then that 548 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:35,679 Speaker 2: you no longer even have a moment to think like, 549 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 2: which is awesome. 550 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 1: That's great. 551 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,119 Speaker 2: I'm saying, like you just all they're doing is reacting. 552 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 2: They're just playing their back and I'm so I'm so nervous, 553 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 2: You're you're nervous. 554 00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:46,360 Speaker 1: I'm ready, dude, I'm excited. 555 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:47,879 Speaker 2: I'm ready, but I'm also I mean, there has to 556 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 2: be some nerves, like this is the whole season coming 557 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 2: down to the line in one one double Heather. 558 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 1: But it's like it's it's a nervous excitement. Yeah, all right, 559 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,360 Speaker 1: Well I think that's worse. Is anxious worse than nervous? 560 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,200 Speaker 2: I think anxious is worse than nervous? For sure. 561 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 1: You don't get like, Okay, when you're kid, you were 562 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:02,439 Speaker 1: anxious for Christmas, right, like I can't wait, you were 563 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:04,120 Speaker 1: like nervous. 564 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:05,920 Speaker 2: I don't think that's what anxious means, though. I think 565 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:08,679 Speaker 2: that's just like that's what I think. That's exciting. Anxious 566 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 2: can like manifest itself in like physical symptoms. Like I 567 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 2: don't anxiety is a bad thing. 568 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,640 Speaker 1: Anxiety does suck. Okay, that's fair, all right, wrong word, 569 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 1: but that's what That's how I'm feeling. I'm like a 570 00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 1: kid on Christmas morning, can't wait to open the present 571 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:21,480 Speaker 1: and see what's inside. 572 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 2: I just I was so happy watching phys School and 573 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 2: Door play baseball today, Like it's just a warrior. I 574 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:29,680 Speaker 2: said before, I'll say it again, Like this guy is 575 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:31,640 Speaker 2: everything to this team. This is this is the best 576 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 2: met that most of us ever going to watch in 577 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 2: our lives easily. Easily, Not easily, because I mean some 578 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 2: some people maybe not listening to his podcasts. A lot 579 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 2: of people saw Tom sever pitch. Okay, I think that 580 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 2: means I think Checked the Ground was pretty incredible. David Wright, 581 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 2: it's amazing. But it's like Mike Piazza, Yeah, Mike Piazza too, 582 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,880 Speaker 2: But like Lindor is just what he's done. Like this 583 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 2: game specifically is like that's just Superstar ship. 584 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 1: Yea. 585 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,399 Speaker 2: I will not let my team lose this game if 586 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:55,919 Speaker 2: I can do anything about it. It was, it was, 587 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 2: it was. It was fucking special. 588 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,360 Speaker 1: It was. It was definitely special. It was a game 589 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 1: by the Mets. 590 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:03,399 Speaker 2: One thing that one thing for Friday we got to 591 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 2: talk about fuck Reece Hoskins. 592 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 1: Oh major Reecee Hoskins. Yeah. I hate that when we 593 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 1: see them when and when we see them in the postseason. 594 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 1: After we take one from the Braves and we go 595 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:17,439 Speaker 1: back to Milwaukee to that shipthole Field where there's the 596 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: sun coming through much sun, so much sun. I can't 597 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: even who built that. Why are there so many windows? 598 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 1: I've never seen windows in an indoor stadium. To me, 599 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:28,399 Speaker 1: that's crazy I want to end ree Hoskins season. I 600 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 1: wanted to end in Milwaukee, you can say, in that 601 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 1: miserable fucking city with all the cheese that they got 602 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:35,439 Speaker 1: and their their Miller light not even cores like the 603 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,359 Speaker 1: best beer. I I want to end Reecee Hoskins season. 604 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,919 Speaker 1: I fucking hate Reecee Hoskins so much. It goes so 605 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 1: much again, deep seated hate. I think it's like Clemens, 606 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 1: utly the I think for me they flipped just because 607 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: Piazza guy. Fuck Roger Clemens. They flipped for me. On 608 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 1: a given day, Reee Hoskins has to be number three. 609 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:56,439 Speaker 2: Maybe he might be closer than my one. I look 610 00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:58,200 Speaker 2: just hit the fact way did he hit that grand 611 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:00,439 Speaker 2: slam of Sham and I where love Shoum and I 612 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 2: were not in the spot without Sean and I no 613 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:04,240 Speaker 2: whooped his pants in the biggest star major poop. Yeah, 614 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 2: completely completely pooped himself. But it was that at bat 615 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 2: specifically was so annoying to me because he kept throwing 616 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:11,320 Speaker 2: in the two seam of the two seam, and the 617 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:12,679 Speaker 2: two seam is great, and I throws it for like 618 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:14,719 Speaker 2: he when he's on like I'm when I would throw 619 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:15,920 Speaker 2: the pitch seventy percent of the time in a game. 620 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:17,360 Speaker 2: I won't be upset about. It's one the best pitches 621 00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 2: in all of baseball based by run value on Baseball Savant. 622 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:21,680 Speaker 2: But he just couldn't really get the feel of it. 623 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 2: You could see the command was off. And this was 624 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 2: also annoying for Manaia because everyone else in rotations being 625 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 2: asked to like move their schedule around a lot more 626 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 2: than him, because this crazy week he only had one 627 00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 2: extra day off. He just stepped on the mound. He 628 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:33,840 Speaker 2: very clearly didn't have it at all. The last time 629 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:37,040 Speaker 2: that Manaya didn't throw six and two thirds innings and 630 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:40,880 Speaker 2: the start was August tenth, Wow, before before Friday night. 631 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 4: Wow. 632 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 2: But that that grand Slam, he just he just put 633 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 2: a two seamer right down the middle. It was bell high. 634 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:48,199 Speaker 2: It was like it was the easiest pitch I think 635 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 2: Ree Hoskins ever hit in his entire life, and at 636 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,399 Speaker 2: least it's a major leaguer. But he also crazy thing 637 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:54,119 Speaker 2: Mania did because he just couldn't get the feel that 638 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:55,600 Speaker 2: two seam he couldn't get. He couldn't get. He talked 639 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 2: to halfnarr he except throwing it. He went back to 640 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:02,240 Speaker 2: his color. He threw his color literally exactly one time 641 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:05,879 Speaker 2: since July twenty fourth, whoa and July twenty fourth, that 642 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 2: was the week they played the Braves and he saw 643 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 2: Chris Sale and change everything. So he's throwing the He's 644 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 2: thrown the color one time. SUGGESTI Winker joined this team 645 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 2: long ago. That was that's wild one time since and 646 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 2: the NFL training camp since the Aaron Rodgers egypt a 647 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 2: story from mini camp whatever when he skipped practice and 648 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 2: now camp can't play that well with his team, freaking asshole. 649 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:29,360 Speaker 2: But it was very, very I was much much more 650 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 2: confident going into Friday than I was basically other games. 651 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:33,879 Speaker 2: This year's get really thumb and I was just rolling 652 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:36,199 Speaker 2: had it. It was disappointing to see him do that, 653 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 2: because if the Mets can pull this off and get 654 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 2: to the playoffs, game one and night is getting the 655 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:42,080 Speaker 2: ball three days rest, Yes, and there's a really good 656 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 2: chance if the Mets are playing that game, it's against 657 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:46,840 Speaker 2: the same team, so you gotta get ready to pitch. 658 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 2: And I think that maybe it was just a field 659 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,200 Speaker 2: thing that one day with the fastball wasn't working. That's 660 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 2: normally his pitchy leans on. But I was a little nervous. 661 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 2: Watching that game on Friday. Didn't give me good, good, 662 00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 2: good hope for the future. 663 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, it wasn't. Wasn't a great omen. I don't know. 664 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 1: When you get pushed back a day two like sometimes 665 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:04,440 Speaker 1: your whole rhythm gets thrown off, and it was more 666 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 1: of a Slingnan pitch. 667 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 2: In ten days he came out firing. 668 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 1: Rose Quintana is a consummate pro, not that shumannihilation Jose 669 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,680 Speaker 1: Quintana for everything that we said are the shortcomings for 670 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: him when he came into this team and this roster. 671 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:17,159 Speaker 1: I'll tell you one thing. He goes out there and 672 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 1: he pitches whatever he's told. 673 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,639 Speaker 2: The biggest frustration with Hosingkntana, always and whatever will be 674 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 2: the fact that the Mets medical team or whoever was 675 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:27,639 Speaker 2: involved with his physical missed a tumor in his in 676 00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 2: his abdomen that was so big and fracture the rib. 677 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:31,879 Speaker 2: I'll never, ever the rest of my life forget the 678 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 2: fact that when the Mets give hos Katana physical they 679 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 2: missed a tumor. Literally, if you're giving a picture of 680 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 2: physical elbow, shoulder tumors one, two, three, like that, then 681 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 2: we should then we should figure out the rest the Bube. 682 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 2: I hopefully it would never make that mistake again. It 683 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 2: was never exactly about Khana, the fact that he wasn't 684 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:48,880 Speaker 2: very exciting and pitchers who were worse than Katana were 685 00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 2: accepting one year deals, and we gave him happily gave 686 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 2: him a two. But thank thankfully we gave him that too, 687 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 2: because then if we don't givehim that two, he doesn't 688 00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:55,640 Speaker 2: start this game on Saturday. Actually lost the game anyway, 689 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 2: It doesn't matter whatever, I don't care. I'm on a 690 00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:57,680 Speaker 2: tanker right. 691 00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 1: Now, but shallow hose Katana good enough to win out Hostana. 692 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 1: Let's hit a quick act of break before we start 693 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,400 Speaker 1: to wrap this one up and talk about the hell 694 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 1: tomorrow or today, Yep, it's that time. Let's talk about 695 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:15,439 Speaker 1: everybody's favorite thing that's happening today. It maybe even when 696 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 1: you're listening, says, maybe even before whatever it is when 697 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 1: you're listening, says, it's gonna be Monday doubleheader in that 698 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:22,880 Speaker 1: shithole of a city, Atlanta. 699 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 2: Heuse game. 700 00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 1: I fucking hate the Braves. I hate that stupid stadium. 701 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 1: It's beautiful, I hate it. I hate their fan base. 702 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 1: I hate the Tomahawk chop. It's racist. I hate I 703 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 1: hate everything, I hate everything about the Atlanta Braves, and 704 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:38,080 Speaker 1: I'd love nothing more to them to win one game. 705 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 1: One game there make the playoffs. If we get the 706 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 1: opportunity to win two and we do and we knock 707 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 1: them out of the playoffs. 708 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:50,439 Speaker 2: Wow, But here's the question there. I think right now 709 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 2: we should talk through a lot of the weird scenarios 710 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 2: and decisions being made about this double header. So we 711 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:56,160 Speaker 2: had the Mets announced after the game that Tyler McGill 712 00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 2: is gonna start game one, right, they said that. They said, 713 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:01,480 Speaker 2: they said, if they win the game, seve Reno is 714 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:03,200 Speaker 2: gonna pitch game on the wild card. If they lose 715 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,120 Speaker 2: the game, Severing is gonna start game two. I don't 716 00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 2: disagree with the right decision, probably in terms of bullpen 717 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 2: management and just seeing if you can hold Severno. I 718 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 2: do think we're getting a little cute, a tiny bit. 719 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:14,680 Speaker 2: I think if you have if you're playing two games, 720 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:16,719 Speaker 2: you have to win one to continue your season, wouldn't 721 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:18,119 Speaker 2: you probably pitch the better pitcher? 722 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:18,680 Speaker 3: Nah? 723 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 1: You you always hold your guy. I think you always 724 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 1: hold your guy because if do or die, always, But 725 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 1: when you have the option of two. Yah, you have 726 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 1: to you have to hold the second the best guy 727 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 1: for the second game. I mean, Braves are even doing 728 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:33,680 Speaker 1: that with with Sale, and it's doing that would sail. 729 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:35,720 Speaker 1: The Sale stuff is really strange what they're doing with 730 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:37,360 Speaker 1: him because his last start he was down about two 731 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 1: miles an hour. He before this season, Chris Salen thrown 732 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 1: a combined one hundred and fifty innings in the last 733 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 1: three years. Like this is just probably a lot of 734 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 1: work for this guy and hasn't been used to it 735 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 1: now the fact they keep push him back can pitch 736 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 1: it all weekend they managed to win the series against 737 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 1: the Royal team to pitch one game, which is fucking Royals. 738 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:53,800 Speaker 2: So fucking Travis Darnault Saurdy. You gotta be kidding with it. 739 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 1: But what a gut punch that was to see him 740 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 1: hit the walk off home run. 741 00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:01,160 Speaker 2: I'm unbelievable. But we weird stuff with Sale right now 742 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 2: because I think they just really don't want him to pitch. 743 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 1: No, they definitely don't want him to pitch. There's a 744 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 1: super we don't want him to pitch, which is why 745 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 1: they're going to twelve and block game one. But I 746 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:10,959 Speaker 1: think back to the Mets. It's I think you have 747 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 1: to go McGill because and I was telling you this earlier. 748 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 1: Now to tell the people now, I think with McGill, 749 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 1: four or five innings Max, if I don't think you're 750 00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 1: gonna try to stretch him out further, you got to 751 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 1: use your best bullpen arms. They need to be fresh. 752 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 1: If you go sever Reno, let's just say you go Severno. 753 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 1: He gets knocked out early. Are you are you just punting? 754 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:30,120 Speaker 1: Then you're punting the first game. You have to act 755 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 1: with your best foot forward in that game one. And 756 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 1: for McGill, who's gonna let's just say five Max, Right, 757 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 1: that's fifty percent of the game. You still have another 758 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:39,880 Speaker 1: fifty percent of the game left, and I want my 759 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 1: best fifty percent there. Whereas with sever Reno, we've seen 760 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,840 Speaker 1: him go six seven innings at times this year when 761 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 1: he's on. I think I think it would be I 762 00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 1: think it would be too cute actually, to be too aggressive, 763 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 1: to be going with Louis Severino in game one. 764 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 2: So so what's what's half of nine? You said fifty 765 00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:58,120 Speaker 2: percent of nine is five? 766 00:29:58,320 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 1: Well, if you go five innings, it's five. In outs, 767 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 1: it's four, it's technically four and a half or five innings, 768 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:03,960 Speaker 1: but it's not a real five innings. 769 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 2: That's math of mark right there. But I you're saying about, 770 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:09,720 Speaker 2: let me throw your scenario right now, hit me, hit me. 771 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 2: All right, it's the second inning, and let's just say, 772 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 2: you know, I don't want to put this universe. Let's 773 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 2: say Matt all sins to through run homer, okay, And 774 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 2: as you're losing three nothing in the second inning, hes 775 00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 2: McGill key pitching, Does mckill come out of the game, 776 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,640 Speaker 2: stays in three nothing whether then there's a solo home 777 00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 2: in the next inning by Romola. That's losing four nothing 778 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 2: to the third inning, and it seems like the Braves 779 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 2: kind of have Tyler McGill. And then the line of 780 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 2: and four batteries are gonna flip over for the third 781 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 2: time through. It's not even the fourth inning. 782 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 1: Like I faked injury. I called Joey Luczy said, put 783 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:40,080 Speaker 1: the jersey on him, let him throw one hundred and 784 00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 1: fifty pitches and finish the game. I don't know this, 785 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 1: but that's good with my whole thing. 786 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:45,959 Speaker 2: My thing in my brain is like letter, say, at 787 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 2: what point do you concede the game you're playing and 788 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 2: to start planning for the next one, Like I don't 789 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 2: want to use the best relievers in a game you're 790 00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 2: losing in the first one. Like you know what I'm 791 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:53,720 Speaker 2: saying Like. 792 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:56,160 Speaker 1: This, that's why you start McGill first, is because if 793 00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 1: you are going to concede the game, you can't concede 794 00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 1: game two. There's no conceding in game two. 795 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 2: You win game one, game two. 796 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:04,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, then the Mets. If the Mets win game one, 797 00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 1: honestly forfeit, win take it. I don't care. We don't 798 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 1: put anybody else out on the field. 799 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 2: That's another part of this that sucks, because I feel 800 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:13,520 Speaker 2: like there is a there would be a wonderful world 801 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 2: where the Mets and the Braves meet in the dark 802 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 2: tunnel and they shake hands. Someone for if it's Game one, 803 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 2: someone for if it's Game two, both of our pitching 804 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:23,120 Speaker 2: staffs don't get fucked and we both get to go 805 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 2: to the playoffs. But I literally I think there's too 806 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 2: much venom between these teams. I think these guys literally 807 00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:29,600 Speaker 2: just fucking hate each other. I don't think that. But 808 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 2: then also it's stupid, like it's not true because if 809 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 2: the Mets win game one. They're not gonna pitch anyone 810 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:36,600 Speaker 2: in game two, like everyone everyone who can get the 811 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:38,959 Speaker 2: rest day because the roster can't isn't isn't expanded. They 812 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,960 Speaker 2: Mets really can't. They can't really take game two off. 813 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 2: Like if the Mets game won't win Game one, I 814 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 2: don't even know who's pitching Game two. I literally can't 815 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 2: figure out does Danny Young pitch eight innings? Like like 816 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 2: what can they possibly do if they win that game? 817 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:52,800 Speaker 2: Because the reality is that if the Mets do make 818 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:54,520 Speaker 2: it to Tuesday and play series against the Brewers of 819 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,560 Speaker 2: the Padres, they will have played five games in four days. 820 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,080 Speaker 2: We have five starting pitchers, and you know what, we 821 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 2: kind of sometimes maybe have like two or three or 822 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:04,239 Speaker 2: four I guess on a good day.

It's an interesting thing, Like if they are 831 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 2: able to win game one, they can hold back Severino. 832 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,479 Speaker 2: I literally can't figure out who's going to pitch. They 833 00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 2: can't set show shovel guys up and down because you 834 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:27,880 Speaker 2: have to stay down fifteen days. You can't do that. 835 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 2: You can't take someone off the roster like I truthfully, 836 00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:32,920 Speaker 2: this is so unprecedented. I'm fascinated to see what they 837 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 2: do well, and I would be on normal rest for 838 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 2: what for game two? For game two? Yeah, but if 839 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:39,920 Speaker 2: if Severno has to pitch game two of the double, 840 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 2: heather n'st pitching game one, Yeah, of course, Yeah, that's 841 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:45,160 Speaker 2: that's how what I'm saying.

And 844 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:51,320 Speaker 2: you said you want to kill the Braves and their season. 845 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:52,720 Speaker 2: If we win game one, We're not gonna try and 846 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 2: kill the Braves. We're we gonna take that game off. 847 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:56,400 Speaker 2: Hey listen, right, it's so baseball. 848 00:32:56,880 --> 00:33:03,160 Speaker 1: I'm sure Luise Terrenz and Eddie Alvarez maybe Eddie Alvarez 849 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:04,959 Speaker 1: legacy game coming in game two. If the Mets win 850 00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:09,800 Speaker 1: game one, you gotta definitely take it easy. Luckily, you know, 851 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:11,560 Speaker 1: lind Door does not touch the fielding game too. If 852 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 1: they win game one, obviously, and this is a lot 853 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 1: of if talk and a lot of looking forward red 854 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 1: to the massage table. Yeah, right to the massage table. 855 00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:20,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, he did think on his back. 856 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 1: Put him on the flight to Milwaukee already, private jet, 857 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 1: Steve Cohen, we know you got the money. Put him 858 00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 1: on the jets of Milwaukee if they win in Game one, 859 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 1: and if he's in San Diego, he's halfway there. He's fine, 860 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 1: He'll be okay, like, no, you. 861 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:31,480 Speaker 2: Hang out with the team if they when we win 862 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:33,880 Speaker 2: this game Monday, that flights Milwaukee's gonna be unreal vibes. 863 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 2: It's also I saw our girl Diana sweeting about this. 864 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:40,120 Speaker 2: It's very funny that between the Mets, the Braves and Diamondbacks, 865 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 2: no one's gonna be able to pop champagne celebrate the 866 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 2: postseason birth. It's kind of hilarious. It's also funny because 867 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 2: this Mets core never got to actually celebrate their postseason 868 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 2: birth twenty twenty two, because they had a fake celebration 869 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 2: for the for just clinching the playoffs, and they had 870 00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 2: no celebration when they lost the division in horrible dramatic 871 00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:56,280 Speaker 2: fashion against the Braves. So it's really bizarre if this 872 00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 2: Mets team can't get champions. But we have to get 873 00:33:58,040 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 2: to the playoffs. We have to win the wildcard round 874 00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:01,200 Speaker 2: so we can get we can get the champagne party, 875 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:02,960 Speaker 2: we can get the drunk Mets content that we deserve. 876 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:07,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, that'd be fantastic. I can't wait. I can't wait 877 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:09,399 Speaker 1: to war is gonna be crazy? What are we gonna do? 878 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 2: I don't I also say this, the Mets have to 879 00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:14,839 Speaker 2: fucking step up and hit Specter Schwellenbach. Yes, you're seeing 880 00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:16,400 Speaker 2: this guy for the second time in the week, swelling 881 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 2: back to a great pitcher. I love dropping favorite. It's 882 00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:21,759 Speaker 2: my favorite in baseball. Specter Schwellenback made twenty four starts 883 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:23,759 Speaker 2: between high school and the major leagues. It's one of 884 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 2: the craziest just piece of information that exists. You just 885 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:29,040 Speaker 2: saw this guy last week. He crushed you in July 886 00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:30,719 Speaker 2: August never the last time he played them, wast You 887 00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:32,560 Speaker 2: got to hit the guy. It's fastballs and it's sliders. 888 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 2: Hit this fucking guy, Like I'm tired of this and 889 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 2: a lot of people I think we're a little scared 890 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,400 Speaker 2: of Luis Evrio facing the Braves back to back appearances. 891 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 1: I'm fine. 892 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:42,160 Speaker 2: I'm fine with the two. This team is so right 893 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:43,759 Speaker 2: handed heavy. We talked about it last week with the 894 00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 2: Hammer territory guys Brad and Steven. Because this Braves team 895 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,200 Speaker 2: is they have they don't have a lot of depth 896 00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:49,799 Speaker 2: because most of their team got hurt, so they can't 897 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:51,319 Speaker 2: really platoon guys in it. And now so it's all 898 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:53,600 Speaker 2: right handed hitters besides for Olsen and Michael Harris. So 899 00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:55,400 Speaker 2: you have to start the writings against him. You just 900 00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 2: you just simply completely had to. So I like the decision. McGill, 901 00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:01,600 Speaker 2: please please. I hope that slider works. I pray that 902 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 2: slider works. I hope your fastball command's good. I hope 903 00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:05,719 Speaker 2: he's so comfortable right now. I hope he's hope they're 904 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:07,319 Speaker 2: early in Atlanta. I hope he's sleeping in these company 905 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:08,719 Speaker 2: and these cozy He's gonna wake up Brady to be 906 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:09,520 Speaker 2: a killer tomorrow. 907 00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:11,320 Speaker 1: Good matchup. 908 00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:12,480 Speaker 2: So I think it's the best way the Metsica had 909 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:14,480 Speaker 2: drawn up the way they planned this weekend. I have 910 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:16,360 Speaker 2: a lot of faith in Caralsmond Doze and doing something 911 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:18,600 Speaker 2: managerily has never been done in baseball, which is navigating 912 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:20,359 Speaker 2: a doublehead of the day before a possible playoff game. 913 00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:22,920 Speaker 2: I just I just the second game, and tonight I 914 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:24,320 Speaker 2: was like, I want to play right now, immediately.
