1
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:11,719
Speaker 1: What is up? Mets fans, Welcome back to another episode

2
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:15,000
Speaker 1: of the Meta of a podcast. The Boys Are Abroad.

3
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:20,400
Speaker 1: This is a chaos episode. It's currently eight am GMT, Greenwich. Meantime,

4
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:24,560
Speaker 1: The Boys arey. I'm in Scotland right now, shout out St. Andrews.

5
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 1: James is in Manchester. And of course, what happens when

6
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:28,720
Speaker 1: James leaves the country?

7
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:29,520
Speaker 2: The met we.

8
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:32,479
Speaker 1: Used to lose a sneary sweep over the Washington National

9
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 1: is really good baseball being played. But again, more importantly,

10
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:37,960
Speaker 1: we have to start the conversation. Do we start to

11
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:40,120
Speaker 1: go fund me to move James to England permanently or

12
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:41,839
Speaker 1: at least out of the country, maybe to Canada. He

13
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:45,680
Speaker 1: can still be relatively close Mexico. This Puerto Rico count

14
00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 1: is out of the country. I'd like to hear your

15
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 1: thoughts of her, James.

16
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:51,240
Speaker 2: I mean, we're not gonna get to the socio political

17
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:53,320
Speaker 2: issues of his Puerto Rico part of the United States America,

18
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 2: but it's compelling. Places start not compelling. We're gonna talk

19
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:58,960
Speaker 2: about real baseball really quickly, but just as a quick aside,

20
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 2: I left there basically the whole month of April after

21
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 2: the first series against the Brewers, and I also left

22
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 2: again this past Monday, and with me out of America

23
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 2: this season, the Mets are fourteen to nine. It's a

24
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 2: great baseball. That's a really good start to the season

25
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:14,120
Speaker 2: with me in America this season, Mets with thirteen twenty six,

26
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 2: worst team in baseball thirty three percent winning percentage, completely

27
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 2: a bar in baseball the whole time, the whole month

28
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 2: of May when I was actually in New York the

29
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,119
Speaker 2: entire time. So if there might be something real here,

30
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 2: I mean, we'll see what happens when the Mets actually

31
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 2: play the Phillies. It will be a good test case

32
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 2: this weekend. One of the best teams in baseball, with

33
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 2: me presently at the game but also out of the country,

34
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 2: which are the two things coming against each other. That's

35
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 2: gonna be a hard one. However, the just played their

36
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 2: best all round series that I can remember this year.

37
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 2: All the starting pitchers McGill, David Peterson, Louis Savarrino pitching

38
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 2: in the six endings. Savarrerino completed eight innings on ninety pitches.

39
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 2: Lineup went around well. I think the games on Tuesday

40
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 2: and Wednesday, everyone starting nine got a hit. The ballpen

41
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 2: was good enough to not blow the leads like. Everything

42
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 2: was smooth. It was good. Jose Glacis train has left

43
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 2: the station. Louise Torrenz as a savior. Francisco and Door

44
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 2: now once again is a good hitter. Pee A Lozzo

45
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 2: started to hit the ball, hit a crazy home run.

46
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 2: Tuesday night, Fianto's keeps hitting incredibly well. Nemo started to

47
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 2: swinging a little bit better, had a lot of hard

48
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 2: hit balls. Things just looked really good. This looked like

49
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 2: the Mets team that we expected at the gate that

50
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 2: we have not gotten for a very long time.

51
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'll just apologize right now if we sound awful.

52
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: I think the boys are a little bit hungover that

53
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 1: the UK is really treated as well. This far Saint Andrew's.

54
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,520
Speaker 1: I'm hanging out with with the unique kids at Saint

55
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 1: Andrew's University right now. Shout out Christopher, my family friend

56
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: who is being my host. My host, That's what I'm

00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 1: looking for. Chaperone wasn't right, Yeah, duding so early and

58
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 1: like I can still feel the beer at the top

59
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 1: of my chest. It's like burning. I got heart burd

60
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:47,640
Speaker 1: This is bad.

61
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 2: But having a great jokes about a lot but Mark

62
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:53,679
Speaker 2: doesn't ever wake up before ten o'clock. Ever, when's the

63
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 2: last time you woke up before ten? Do you remember?

64
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 1: It's got to be for a flight, Like I feel

65
00:02:57,840 --> 00:02:59,800
Speaker 1: like that's pretty It's either like for a flight or

66
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:01,920
Speaker 1: what get my like Crohn's infusion. Like if they're like,

67
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:03,680
Speaker 1: we're coming at nine, I'll be like, Okay, I gotta

68
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 1: wake up at nine o'clock and then I come to

69
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 1: your house. Yeah, they're coming to my house and I

70
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 1: go right to bed immediately after. So this is this

71
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 1: is early, especially when it was a late night. Got

72
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 1: home at like two thirty three o'clock. So we're we're grinding,

73
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 1: we're working. But that's what we're doing here for the

74
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 1: Messed Up podcast. Across the country. Nope, not even across

75
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 1: the country, across the friggin' ocean, and we're still podcasting

76
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:24,959
Speaker 1: and getting this out for you guys for the morning.

77
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 1: So talking about baseball, I think the first thing maybe

78
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:29,919
Speaker 1: in Mets world that we got to talk about here

79
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 1: is this Jose Glacias versus Jeff McNeil thing that has

80
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 1: now come up. McNeil hasn't played in the last three

81
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 1: it hasn't started in the last three or four games,

82
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 1: I believe basically, since Jose Glacier has been called up,

83
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 1: I don't think he's really gotten a start. And in

84
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 1: the game that Jose Glaciers has played, the defense has

85
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 1: been better, the offense has been better. There's kind of

86
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 1: really no reason to be playing Jeff McNeil right now,

87
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 1: which is a crazy sentence than twenty twenty four we were

88
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 1: talking about how the Mets are a better team or

89
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: have been a better team on paper. Right now with

90
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 1: Jose A. Glaciers playing second base over Jeff McNeil.

91
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 2: There's just seems like a weird tangible vibe too. There's

92
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 2: just something about him in the lineup. He made a

93
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 2: diving play I think late in the gamer is possibly

94
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 2: the end of the game. On Wednesday, and Francisco Indoor

95
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 2: Huggjsey Glacias like he was his brother, like he was

96
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 2: keep been waiting for him forever. And Mark there was

97
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 2: a great piece that came out. I think Decomo Sam

98
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:21,719
Speaker 2: and I think him he like I think all of

99
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:26,039
Speaker 2: them arellly up on Tuesday afternoon that Iglesias and Vian

100
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,840
Speaker 2: Doo's had like this mentorship bonds like in Triple A.

101
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 2: This year, both of them came out of spring training

102
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 2: and felt like they were played certainly well enough to

103
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 2: make the team. We talked a lot in the off

104
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 2: season that not the off season, just before season that

105
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 2: Glace he's had a great spring and he really made

106
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:40,480
Speaker 2: a case for the roster, and Zach Shork got the

107
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,760
Speaker 2: spot over him and Joey Wendell despite him playing better

108
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 2: than both of them the spring. And for him and

109
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 2: Viando's who both felt like they played well enough in

110
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 2: the spring to get their starting roles or at least

111
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 2: roster spots, they look to each other if Vito's especially

112
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 2: to Iglesia as someone who's a veteran, who was like,

113
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 2: we just have to keep doing and keep playing well,

114
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 2: keep good out, to keep your head up, especially when

115
00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 2: we had to hit the home run off Matthew Labratory

116
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 2: the winning game against the Cardinals, and then goes back down.

117
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:04,719
Speaker 2: He basically with someone of that vance has leaned on

118
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 2: and like it's so good to have a veteran like

119
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 2: that who's doing that. But the decision doesn't seem final.

120
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 2: With the Glaciers McNeil just because digit there was three

121
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 2: lefties in this series. Mackenzie Gore dj hrs and who

122
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:22,040
Speaker 2: Patrick Corbin. Yeah, jeez, that guy still bothering around but yeah, god.

123
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 2: But so it wasn't like the decision was obvious yet

124
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 2: because three lefties. So now at least all is certainly

125
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:30,360
Speaker 2: is the platoon. But this season it's very small sampletized.

126
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 2: I don't think it actually means anything, but the Mets

127
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 2: are five and zero when Jeff McNeil is not in

128
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,839
Speaker 2: the lineup, which is kind of shitty to say out loud.

129
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 2: And again, it just seemed to be a bit of

130
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 2: an energy with the glaciers on the field that I

131
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,040
Speaker 2: haven't seen this year with Jeff. And it's just like

132
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,920
Speaker 2: I can understand from a baseball team, from competitors, from

133
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,840
Speaker 2: professional athletes perspective, that this guy's playing like shit and

134
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 2: he's like powdy and he's throwing things and like he's

135
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,159
Speaker 2: mad and like all this. I don't know, like the

136
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:55,839
Speaker 2: vibes are weird Jeff mcnil this year. They have been

137
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 2: for two years now. They have been for three out

138
00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,679
Speaker 2: of four years now, so I don't know the word situation.

139
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 2: I don't think he's better Thanjeff McNeil, but I think

140
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,360
Speaker 2: the team recently looked better with him over.

141
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 1: Ya, And I think that's I think that's the way

142
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 1: to put it. This version of Jeff McNeil. He is

143
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 1: better than obviously, because this version of Jeff McNeil's just

144
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 1: really not doing anything productive. Nice kneeze there, James, way

145
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: to mute it, professional podcaster. The boys don't miss even

146
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:21,600
Speaker 1: at eight o'clock in the morning hungover. But yeah, I mean,

147
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 1: in a world, it would be a great problem if

148
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 1: we're like, Wow, Jose Glacias is really good, Like I'd

149
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:27,599
Speaker 1: love to be like looking like a week from now

150
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 1: and like, what do we do with Jeff McNeil. We

151
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,480
Speaker 1: got to get rid of this guy, because Jose Glasias

152
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 1: is our second basement. It's also a real possibility that

153
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 1: Jeff McNeil doesn't make it to the trade deadline with

154
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,159
Speaker 1: this team. I'm not talking about DFA, but this feels

155
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:43,040
Speaker 1: like a possible maybe ship out situation at some point.

156
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,599
Speaker 1: I think if Ronnie Marisio was around, definitely would be

157
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,280
Speaker 1: the case. But the only thing that makes it tough

158
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 1: is Jeff does give you infield and outfield depth, which

159
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 1: is something that the Mets obviously could use. Is valuable

160
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 1: to the team right now, and I like, I know

161
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,480
Speaker 1: you talk about the vibe being different with Jose Glaciers

162
00:06:58,480 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 1: on the field too, but I feel like trading a

163
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 1: guy like Jeff would probably throw off the vibe like

164
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 1: Pete and Nimo guys were like pretty close to them

165
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,279
Speaker 1: a little bit too. And I don't necessarily know if

166
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 1: you want to make that move. Whatever it is, okay

167
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 1: problem to have. That's really where I want to wrap

168
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: this thing up here, is that right now Jose Glasias

169
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: is playing good baseball. He's helping the Mets play good baseball,

170
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 1: continue to play the hot hand, and like you said,

171
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 1: credit Carlos Mendoza putting the right guy in the lineup,

172
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 1: giving him a shot. McNeil hasn't been performing and now

173
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 1: Jose glas is that guy.

174
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 2: And just you could feel that immediately on Tuesday night.

175
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 2: In fact, the bottom of the other human Luis Terenz kind

176
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 2: of with driving force in the Mets big rallies in

177
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 2: the fourth and fifth innings where it's just these guys

178
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 2: came back. These guys have a chance to Trent situation

179
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 2: is even interesting because he doesn't have an option when

180
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 2: he signed this teal Neito does not have an option

181
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 2: anymore either, so he's on their baths. He has both

182
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 2: on this team with literally there's one week to make

183
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:48,040
Speaker 2: a decisions.

184
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 1: Tomas Nido will probably not get picked up through waivers though,

185
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 1: because he has that major league contract and it's like

186
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,720
Speaker 1: two or three million dollars this year. So he's the

187
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 1: rare example of like a guy that weirdly, you're okay

188
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 1: if you option because no one's ever going to take

189
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 1: that contract, and if they do, they're paying it. It's

190
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 1: like such a weird situation with him. In the same regards,

191
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 1: he probably is a better catcher than Luis Terenz still,

192
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 1: but Torrenz has like kind of impressed me a little bit.

193
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 1: You showed the power in the last game throughout a

194
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 1: couple base runners, like he's been better than Omar and Nervaaz,

195
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 1: which I guess the bars on the floor there, but.

196
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 2: And hit hit the ball hard. It wasn't like cheapy hits.

197
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 2: He has the two home runs on Wednesday. But it's

198
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 2: just that's another interesting conundrum where amind Advice was so untenable.

199
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 2: The team only had to get through like nine more

200
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 2: games with him, and they were like we just we

201
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 2: just purely seen enough and we told you guys. It

202
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:39,320
Speaker 2: has been enough because he had one of the worst

203
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 2: thirty game stretches in like the history, like like one

204
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,319
Speaker 2: of the worst. It is one of the worst hundred

205
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,320
Speaker 2: baseball players ever over thirty games we have recorded based

206
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,559
Speaker 2: on b War Baseball Reference Dad haads. So it's just like, yeah,

207
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 2: this is intendable. You have to get rid of it.

208
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,199
Speaker 2: It's just again, it comes back to the hunger, comes

209
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:54,560
Speaker 2: back to the energy, It comes back to the vibe.

210
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 2: Things we've asked, we've like needed to see from this

211
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 2: team all season, and just suddenly you put these two guys,

212
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 2: new guys in the bomb, in the oiler, and like

213
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 2: things start to churn in a different way, and we

214
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 2: kind of forget sometimes in baseball at two guys out

215
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,079
Speaker 2: of nine is a pretty signific con portion of the team,

216
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:07,959
Speaker 2: even tho it's the bottom of lineup. We're gonna see

217
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 2: the Phillies this weekend and they they have like one

218
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 2: of the best records in baseball through for the games,

219
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 2: and like a third of their lineup every single day

220
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 2: is like barely replacement level players and they're still this good,

221
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:19,319
Speaker 2: which makes it them even more impressive. But just something

222
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 2: new happened and clicked seem like this team in Washington

223
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,560
Speaker 2: where they finally felt like and acted like they were

224
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 2: better and played like it.

225
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 1: No, that was that was totally vibe because I know

226
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 1: the game one of the game. It's so confusing over

227
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 1: here to talk about which day the games are happening,

228
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 1: and shout out to all of you that are Mets

229
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,920
Speaker 1: fans that aren't from America, because incredibly, the three days

230
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:42,200
Speaker 1: I've been here, it's been hellish to watch and like,

231
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 1: these have been some of the best games, and it's

232
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 1: so damn hard because the night games start at like

233
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 1: basically midnight, which that's that's kind of late to start

234
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 1: a baseball game. I stay up late, but that's a

235
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,200
Speaker 1: little bit late to start a game, and then to

236
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 1: understand what's going on, know what day we're talking about.

237
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,760
Speaker 1: Everything's really thrown off here. But where was I going

238
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 1: with this?

239
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:02,079
Speaker 2: Oh?

240
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 1: Man, I blank? That completely blanked. I literally don't even

241
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 1: have no idea whatever segue. Let's talk about Mark Viento's

242
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 1: let's talk about him that.

243
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's another embodiment of someone earning it, someone being hungry,

244
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:16,960
Speaker 2: someone basically playing like every single play in the field,

245
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,080
Speaker 2: every game, every single back could be their last, and

246
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:20,960
Speaker 2: it makes sense that he's playing like that because that's

247
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,440
Speaker 2: kind of what the Mets pushed on him. Even as

248
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 2: he has become the starter, even as he's now gotten

249
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 2: some security in his role, he has been so fucking good.

250
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 2: He has changed the complexion of this team in this lineup,

251
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,679
Speaker 2: the energy, the vibe, every single thing they're doing. And

252
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,440
Speaker 2: we are people that were like critical of Mark Vento's

253
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 2: but the again, I think in a fair way, I

254
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,840
Speaker 2: think now, just like we like doing on this podcast,

255
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 2: there's material changes when new things are happening, like we

256
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 2: give the credit where it's due Mark Viento's it's fucking awesome,

257
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:49,840
Speaker 2: and you're gonna have to take Mark fient You're gonna

258
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 2: have to drag a cold, lifeless body out of his

259
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,440
Speaker 2: batting order to get him out of it because he's

260
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 2: it's undeniabout how good he's playing. He's the third Met

261
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,720
Speaker 2: this season to cross the one point zero war threshold,

262
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,560
Speaker 2: after Francisco and Door and Brandon Nemo. He's the third

263
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 2: guy to do it before End's funny he actually passed

264
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:06,720
Speaker 2: Baby like Baby was a zero point eight like also

265
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 2: tied with Pete, which is funny thinking about that offense

266
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 2: for his defense. But I did a tweet for Mets

267
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 2: up because we haven't be tweeting, so I was like,

268
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:13,360
Speaker 2: I want to try something in the middle of the

269
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:17,440
Speaker 2: day yesterday, every single at that from Mark Fientos since

270
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,080
Speaker 2: he had become the star there, and this before the

271
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,560
Speaker 2: game on Wednesday, single ground out, single, single, flyout, strikeout,

272
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:26,720
Speaker 2: home run, ground out, single, strikeout, walk, strikeout, pop up, walk,

273
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 2: home run, walk, ground out single. That was a four

274
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 2: seventy average. That was three walks and three strikeouts, three

275
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 2: home runs. Guy's fucking nails right now. I he changed.

276
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 1: He's swinging a really good bat. And this is the

277
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 1: kind of stuff like when people were like, oh, like

278
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:43,400
Speaker 1: we got if we're not going to use them, we

279
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 1: should trade, we should do this or that. It's like,

280
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 1: this is why you keep one of these guys around,

281
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 1: because we knew that the possibility for this kind of

282
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,400
Speaker 1: performance was there if those changes were made. He always

283
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 1: hit the ball hard. He always had the ability to

284
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 1: be a good hitter. He just we know, struggled with Velo.

285
00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 1: And right now even as like approach at the plate

286
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 1: seems to be so much better because he he's really

287
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 1: attacking pitches that are hittable. He's not swinging, he's not

288
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 1: chasing that much. The stuff that we've seen from Mark Viento's,

289
00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 1: I think either Will Sam and Tim Hell again one

290
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 1: of the big big boys right over there, Big Jay Journo's.

291
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 1: They wrote an article basically about how the like basically,

292
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,839
Speaker 1: Brett Baty's been given every opportunity, and we're Brett Baty

293
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 1: fans over here. But also he's now played what like

294
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 1: almost one hundred games with the Mets, been giving opportunity.

295
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,040
Speaker 1: He's left and right, he started, he's played whatever it

296
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 1: has and he has struggled. Viento's really has never been

297
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,679
Speaker 1: given that shot to play every day. He didn't get

298
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 1: that shot last year. He didn't get the start or

299
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,320
Speaker 1: that shot at spring training. This is the first time

300
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,439
Speaker 1: in his major league career he's playing what like seven

301
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 1: out of eight games, seven out of ten games even,

302
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 1: and it's working, and he's swinging the bat well, and

303
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:49,360
Speaker 1: like you said, he's bringing energy. And I'm remembering where

304
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,720
Speaker 1: I was going with this before the series, the Mets

305
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:53,800
Speaker 1: really dominated outside of the game that got a little

306
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,080
Speaker 1: bit close in Game one where he had a little

307
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 1: bit of a flashback memory to some blown games in Washington.

308
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 1: They really just went out and beat the piss out

309
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 1: of the Nationals, which is great to see because, like

310
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,400
Speaker 1: you said, they should be a better team than them.

311
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 1: And guys like Viento's and Jose Glacias and to his credit,

312
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 1: even Louis Torenz bringing that energy, these guys who aren't

313
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,720
Speaker 1: given those everyday roles, who need to earn their playing time.

314
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 1: It's really helping save this team season right now.

315
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,320
Speaker 2: And Fianto's we're I'll talk about something and Johnsonancy Bay

316
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:24,959
Speaker 2: in a second, but something we've always talked about the

317
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,800
Speaker 2: defense man fantastic time and play on Tuesday night, like

318
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 2: down down the line. I think it was a play.

319
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 2: We're probably like maybe someone a little quicker feet maybe

320
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 2: gets that ball sooner. And I think that Metts fans

321
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:35,440
Speaker 2: might not want to hear this. But I had this

322
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:38,839
Speaker 2: conversation with friend of the podcast, Matt Eddie yesterday. We're

323
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 2: just talking Met's talking prospects, trying to work out a

324
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 2: Dynasty baseball trade, but that I DrAk a whole bottle

325
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 2: of wine and that kind of derailed the talks a

326
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 2: little bit. But half off, half off wine was I

327
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:49,720
Speaker 2: gonna do say, now half off out should be allowed.

328
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:51,439
Speaker 1: That shouldn't be a thing that you're allowed.

329
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:55,000
Speaker 2: To do fifty off. All wine bottles include that, So like,

330
00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,960
Speaker 2: as a twenty five pound bottle wife in total fifty

331
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 2: I was like, yeah, twelve quick, yeah, but twelve quick nte.

332
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:04,560
Speaker 2: But people love when I talk and I have like

333
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:10,679
Speaker 2: American accert it's like not all horrible, no shit, a miserable,

334
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 2: but God, I give us swear Fianto's. It seems like

335
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 2: there's like twenty five percent of me that maybe thinks

336
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 2: that this could be an audition for the next first

337
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 2: basement of the team as I watch Mark Fanto's play

338
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:27,520
Speaker 2: every day. But again, he's playing better defense at their base.

339
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,800
Speaker 2: But I think it's still probably it's like in a vacuum,

340
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 2: it's good, but overall I still want to disprove it,

341
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 2: like day after day like baby had to do the

342
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 2: first month of the season. But I have that little

343
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 2: inclination a little bit, a little tiny bit right now,

344
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 2: and we'll probably do like a whole conversation at Brett Bailey,

345
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,080
Speaker 2: like and when something officially happens here, maybe if he

346
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 2: gets moved, maybe if he doesn't come up for a

347
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 2: couple of weeks, but why it didn't work. Yeah, but

348
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 2: Pianto's has done two things that we held him very

349
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 2: critically for that were the big issues that he's fixed.

350
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 2: One of them was hitting against last in. One of

351
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 2: them was patients. He's seen thirty five pitches since being

352
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 2: called back up the season. That would throwing ninety five

353
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:04,280
Speaker 2: miles an hour harder. He has two home runs on

354
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 2: six hits on twelve balls and play and just five

355
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 2: swings and missus. And if you bump that number to

356
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 2: ninety six miles an hour. I did ninety five just

357
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 2: to grab him against the Gore home run from Monday night,

358
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:13,720
Speaker 2: But if you bumped it up to ninety six miles

359
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:15,360
Speaker 2: an hour, he has the one home run, the first

360
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 2: home run off Matthew Libertor, the extra thing to walk off.

361
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,720
Speaker 2: It was I think four hits on nine balls in

362
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 2: play and it was just three swings and misses on

363
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 2: balls over a nice six miles an hour. And yeah,

364
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 2: I didn't check Chase because again hungover in UK. I

365
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 2: want to do this and want to also get a

366
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 2: bigger sample. Twenty and thirty pitches, isn't it enough to

367
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:33,720
Speaker 2: really see this? Want to see more when we had

368
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 2: his whole career was over one hundred pitches. But that's

369
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 2: super relevant and that has to be something I was

370
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 2: working on even after all these bats he's had this year.

371
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 2: It's like a fifteen percent striker rate of ten percent

372
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:44,120
Speaker 2: walk right, and seeing that, see him get on base

373
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 2: with the patients, seeing him play at least better defense,

374
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:48,760
Speaker 2: seeing him respond better when pitches come at him with velocity,

375
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 2: that was the whole key with him. That was why

376
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 2: we were like, I don't think he deserves the starting

377
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 2: spot yet, but I'm sure the Mets were tracking this

378
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 2: to minor leagues and it's just of course, he's hitting

379
00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 2: better than Brett Bailey right now and everything is just

380
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 2: cut coming back to him. All the credit to him.

381
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 2: Major league hitler, good, major league Hithererjo.

382
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 1: Marcionto is doing a really good job now to get

383
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 1: in some pitching for you, James H. Tyler McGill, tylerre McGill.

384
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 1: I'm so early. I called him Tyler Tyler McGill. He

385
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:17,280
Speaker 1: did it again. That's son of a bitch, That son

386
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 1: of a bitch, Tyler McGill. God damn it. He texted

387
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:21,880
Speaker 1: me you up, I answered, and then he didn't answer

388
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 1: back like this is this is this is hell Watching

389
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:28,520
Speaker 1: him pitch is so hard as a betsman. Because he

390
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 1: does those first two starts, You're like, holy shit, there

391
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 1: he is Tyler McGill's him. And then he goes out

392
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 1: against the Nationals and gets his tits lit. It's like,

393
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 1: what are we doing?

394
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:39,520
Speaker 2: This hits whord lit?

395
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 1: I don't know.

396
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 2: I think that this would probably just look more like

397
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 2: old Tyler McGill. But he was much better at limiting damage,

398
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 2: even though I can't limit that much damage. Like Nationals

399
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,120
Speaker 2: were all over him. Four runs, five runs, four earned,

400
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 2: seven heights, eleven hard hit balls. He was just erratic,

401
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 2: Like he said, no, he had no command in this one.

402
00:16:55,240 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 2: But he was truly weirdly saved by new ball pen

403
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:05,399
Speaker 2: extraordinaire Adrian Hawser at the start of the season, No

404
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,440
Speaker 2: one wants to Adrian Houser ever started again. Hither's it

405
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:09,160
Speaker 2: hit the almost three hundred off him as the IRA

406
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 2: was almost nine, the twenty twenty walks versus twenty strikeouts,

407
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:15,360
Speaker 2: it was untenable as reliever. It's only been twelve innings

408
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 2: and it's not a real sample size, but one five

409
00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:20,640
Speaker 2: ERA in the bullpen, Like that's serious thing. And this

410
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,560
Speaker 2: is a role that we've died of for someone on

411
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:24,160
Speaker 2: this team to have in the last few years, where

412
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 2: it's just someone in the middle is just like a

413
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:29,200
Speaker 2: little sponge to sop up the extra innings. And Tyler McGill,

414
00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 2: I've misspoken in the beginning because again Wine hungover, but he's

415
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 2: he was the only pitcher in the series not to

416
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 2: complete six innings, not to pitch into the seventh, only five.

417
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 2: But Houser came in and he he'd bridge this game

418
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,399
Speaker 2: all the way to the eighth inning, and that is

419
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:44,160
Speaker 2: so relevant for a team like this, wh the Met's

420
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:45,840
Speaker 2: are really struggling at the back end of their bullpen

421
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 2: and for him to do that, and he looked it

422
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,760
Speaker 2: wasn't pretty doing it either, like he didn't strike anybody out. Yeah,

423
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 2: it never will be the Adrian Houser, which is the

424
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,400
Speaker 2: fact that he can come in with his little bullshit sinkers,

425
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:57,360
Speaker 2: get the command right, get really hot in the bullpen,

426
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 2: and just throw like a higher like be throwing ninety

427
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,920
Speaker 2: three ninety four instead of ninety ninety one ninety two.

428
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 2: That's really relevant. His slider came in, he was throwing

429
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 2: eighty seven mile an hour slider. It's like, I don't

430
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:10,640
Speaker 2: care who you are if you're throwing a seven mile

431
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:12,119
Speaker 2: an hour slide, Like it's gonna be hard to hit

432
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:14,919
Speaker 2: that as the other team. So it's relevant even just

433
00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 2: coming in with the five pitches that he throws in

434
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:18,359
Speaker 2: a short sample like that, Like that's the kind of

435
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 2: bullshit you have to do when you're not good enough

436
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,760
Speaker 2: to start screaming about this for anybody to have this role,

437
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 2: And it's so cool that this was an adjustment that

438
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,680
Speaker 2: it seems like Mendoz and David Stearns have made and

439
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:29,920
Speaker 2: it got the Mets through a game where Tyler McGill's

440
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,040
Speaker 2: fastball is just eating the middle of his own. His

441
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,200
Speaker 2: curve ball was a mess. Like he was very lucky

442
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:35,359
Speaker 2: to get this game the way he was, and a

443
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,160
Speaker 2: big part that was thanks to the offense and injury.

444
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 1: That's that is a sentence. The twenty twenty four Mets

445
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,159
Speaker 1: season is one of these seasons of all time. It

446
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,160
Speaker 1: seems like there's just gonna be some things that happened

447
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:47,560
Speaker 1: where you scratch your head and go, how is this

448
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:50,600
Speaker 1: even possible? And then the Mets are fourteen to nine

449
00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:52,119
Speaker 1: when James isn't in the country and they're one of

450
00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:53,640
Speaker 1: the best teams in baseball.

451
00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,560
Speaker 2: And Rob manfiz Baster that game we loves. Now a

452
00:18:57,560 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 2: team that's five games other five hundred is gonna do

453
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:01,240
Speaker 2: the playoffs.

454
00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 1: You can't keep going at Rob.

455
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:05,439
Speaker 2: He's not listening to a podcast.

456
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:06,800
Speaker 1: And we're not getting free tickets anyway.

457
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:10,399
Speaker 2: But that's what I'm saying. We have forty hours to

458
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:11,880
Speaker 2: get free tickets. It's not gonna happen at this point.

459
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:13,640
Speaker 2: We're gonna have to dip into the funds. But it's

460
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,119
Speaker 2: just it's it's a team won't like you die because

461
00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 2: I'm like, everyone makes the playoffs anyway, Like, all right,

462
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 2: guess we'll get in. I'd love to crush somebody's dreams.

463
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:22,040
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna win a World Series, but I'd love

464
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:23,639
Speaker 2: to make someone suffer Like that's all.

465
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 1: Padres to the Mets in twenty twenty two and be like, listen,

466
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 1: i know we're not gonna make any we're not gonna

467
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,879
Speaker 1: win the World Series, but let's at least ruin your season.

468
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:33,919
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. Like you could, you could, you

469
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:34,919
Speaker 2: could Padres the Braves.

470
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,080
Speaker 1: I'd love the Padres, the Braves, that's also a sentence.

471
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:40,240
Speaker 2: And the Padres.

472
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:40,560
Speaker 1: Man.

473
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 2: I know the Mets seem seem like they're in a

474
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:44,680
Speaker 2: bad spot right now, but what a disaster they've had

475
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:46,480
Speaker 2: since they made it, since they beat us in that playoff? Serious,

476
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:50,920
Speaker 2: could you imagine trading Juan so though for Randy Vaska.

477
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 1: I was screaming and yelling about it whenn't happened, and

478
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,119
Speaker 1: I caught way too much ship for being on the

479
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 1: right side of history. It'd be like generational player for

480
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:04,280
Speaker 1: bullpen Arms. Doesn't feel like a good deal here, but this.

481
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:06,199
Speaker 2: Took out Dylan Seas for Drew Thorpe, He's like one

482
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,359
Speaker 2: of the only things holding that team above water this year.

483
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 2: But I don't know like that team and like Tatista

484
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,040
Speaker 2: is good, but he hasn't had that streak yet. I

485
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 2: think it's really they just can't so.

486
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 1: They have one soda. They might be competing for the

487
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 1: division right now.

488
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:23,680
Speaker 2: It's not the World Series, But I just I'm happy

489
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 2: we're not that if I just the Padres and want

490
00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 2: so they are always on my mind and we play

491
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 2: against this this Nationals team because I jinx Mackenzie Gore

492
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 2: thanks like literally his first bad start of the year

493
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,320
Speaker 2: because I talked about how good he was semester. We're

494
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 2: just hitting that fastball didn't have the same life on it.

495
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:38,479
Speaker 2: But like just seeing him as C. J. Abrams playing

496
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 2: every day and they see me and Abrams play shorts

497
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:42,600
Speaker 2: up every day and lead off this lineup. Seeing what

498
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:45,480
Speaker 2: Gors done this year, seeing James Wood waiting in the wings,

499
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 2: I'm just like, that's a that's a franchise altering trade

500
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:51,520
Speaker 2: for one and a half years of wan So though

501
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,399
Speaker 2: and not comparing these guys, but like sometimes you might

502
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:55,760
Speaker 2: just have to get to take up a chips and

503
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,120
Speaker 2: leave the table. Just thinking about as we get closer

504
00:20:58,119 --> 00:20:59,639
Speaker 2: to the trade deadline, p Lodds, We're getting more and

505
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:01,760
Speaker 2: more mention is about the trade deadline. Got check? Every

506
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:03,960
Speaker 2: episode's gonna do is got check? Its peel peel. Matt

507
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 2: in August first, he's not He's not. I don't think

508
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:11,520
Speaker 2: he is. Sorry to make you say that, I don't

509
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 2: think so. But you play against the national team and

510
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 2: if they had like one computer, I think they'd be

511
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,439
Speaker 2: like competing for a playoff spot. But they're they're not

512
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:19,160
Speaker 2: there yet, but they.

513
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 1: Got the way hold on. Just speaking of the National

514
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:24,720
Speaker 1: Dave Martinez got really old, like very quickly.

515
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:27,240
Speaker 2: Sold on the World Series.

516
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:29,680
Speaker 1: I mean, listen, no fat shooting here, but the guys

517
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:31,680
Speaker 1: getting like forty pounds and he has like a gray beard.

518
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 1: Now I'm like, where did this come from?

519
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:36,720
Speaker 2: Do you know who looked really fat the other Day's

520
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:38,040
Speaker 2: gonna come out of the field, You're gonna scream, And

521
00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:40,359
Speaker 2: I said his name. It's a baseball player, Aaron.

522
00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:45,720
Speaker 1: My dad texted me about him when we when Aaron

523
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 1: Savale always been a load, and I was like, I

524
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 1: don't think so. Maybe the Raised jerseys were like not slimming,

525
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 1: thick thighs on that dude.

526
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 2: No fat, Yeah hits, But I was like, I haven't

527
00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:01,639
Speaker 2: so many fancy it's a terrible year. And I was like,

528
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,880
Speaker 2: I've never actually tuned in and watched one of the starts,

529
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 2: but like I really wanted to watch Raise Oils just

530
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 2: a good ball, and I was like, this guy's got

531
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 2: a fucking elliptical. It's insane. We have championship to win here.

532
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 2: But back to the met Peterson another game where it

533
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,119
Speaker 2: was just like, eh, like the command super air, but

534
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 2: he just grind it out. I think six and third

535
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:22,680
Speaker 2: or six and two Thursday innings got to the seventh

536
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,119
Speaker 2: for sure before the King Dead Nail nuniez I got

537
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:27,840
Speaker 2: him out of the jam. But the Sincred command was weird.

538
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:29,800
Speaker 2: The slider was the only pitch them as baster Peterson.

539
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,200
Speaker 2: They just kept everything down, which was like the always

540
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:35,000
Speaker 2: like they always triving true method for Peterson, and Nationals

541
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:37,400
Speaker 2: couldn't square him up and he again just Gabe great,

542
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:38,520
Speaker 2: exactly need it.

543
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 1: And this isn't necessarily a negative, but at what point

544
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,600
Speaker 1: is David Peterson just what he is? Does that make sense?

545
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:48,280
Speaker 1: Because like I feel like, yeah, every metfoids probably still

546
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:50,919
Speaker 1: waiting for that first round pick to like pop up.

547
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 1: We saw that crazy spark, a little spark in twenty twenty

548
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 1: two where it was like, oh shit, that was magical,

549
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 1: that was incredible, was unhittable, like that happened. Now we've

550
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:02,200
Speaker 1: just seen more of like you said, like the inconsistencies,

551
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 1: and he'll probably never just be that guy to be.

552
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:06,439
Speaker 1: I mean, he's not gonna be a frontline starterever. It

553
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,720
Speaker 1: seems like with the Mets, not in the current situation,

554
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 1: his mechanics are still all over the place. In the

555
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,800
Speaker 1: highlights of what I saw from him pitch, just that

556
00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 1: it's kind of like he's not able to repeat his

557
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:20,720
Speaker 1: delivery and his motion over and over again, which is

558
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,080
Speaker 1: what I think leads these inconsistencies and something we've talked

559
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 1: about before. Just being six foot six, six foot seven

560
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:29,440
Speaker 1: like he is makes it difficult left handed, a little

561
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:31,520
Speaker 1: all over the place. But if he can give us,

562
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:34,040
Speaker 1: like you said, these grinding out starts, these bulldog starts

563
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,240
Speaker 1: where you just get through six innings, you keep the

564
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:38,479
Speaker 1: game close on the pitching side, that's kind of all

565
00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,359
Speaker 1: we need from him, and maybe that's the kind of

566
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:44,280
Speaker 1: expectation we need to change of David Peterson, and maybe

567
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:47,400
Speaker 1: they'll make us not frustrated watching him pitch as well.

568
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 2: I weirdly think that this run through the rotation for

569
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 2: him and McGill right now, depending if we wind up

570
00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:57,439
Speaker 2: trading seven young, depending whatever what happens with Katana. But well,

571
00:23:57,520 --> 00:23:59,439
Speaker 2: Christian Scot's coming back soon. You bet it in all

572
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,119
Speaker 2: of these guys for sure, no question. So I think

573
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 2: similar to Wedge just happen with Bayley and Bianto. So

574
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 2: I think there's like a bit of an internal competition

575
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:08,880
Speaker 2: going on between McGill and Peterson as to who gets

576
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 2: to still be a regular starter and then who winds

577
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:15,360
Speaker 2: up being that bullpen stop up guy for Adrian Hauser,

578
00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:17,760
Speaker 2: because Howser is a guy like we've talked about before,

579
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 2: he's still like not great. Like these guys both projected

580
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:22,159
Speaker 2: by an Adrian Houser. Adrian house is only on a

581
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,200
Speaker 2: one year contract, so like there's nothing that's really holding

582
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,320
Speaker 2: him here. Where these guys will both have roster spots

583
00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:27,879
Speaker 2: next to your Peterson and McGill, so you want to

584
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,400
Speaker 2: see who's really here, And I think they both fit.

585
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 2: Peterson more so because I still believe in mcguil the

586
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 2: pitch mix of throwing five pitches four pitches in the

587
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:36,480
Speaker 2: startgets each side of the plate, Like I still I

588
00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 2: believe that when Peterson's being able to give he lines

589
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 2: up to me so perfectly for that glue guy that

590
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:43,959
Speaker 2: sponge in the middle of the bullpen to be like okay,

591
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 2: like Cantana has to come out in the fourth inning,

592
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 2: like Dave pe Pty, like give us fifty pitches, and

593
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 2: he's like, yeah, I'll go three innings. I'll get you

594
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 2: from the fourth to seventh right now with just slides

595
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 2: and sinkers, slides and sinker slides and sinkers getting another'

596
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:56,200
Speaker 2: ticking half on each one of those, because like those

597
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,399
Speaker 2: are still the change up is still fine, but doesn't

598
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,119
Speaker 2: seem like super comfortable way against everyone. And it's just

599
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:04,000
Speaker 2: those two pitches where everything and like if that sinker

600
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,760
Speaker 2: command isn't good and he's trying to pick off corners

601
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:08,520
Speaker 2: but he's missing them in ninety two, like that's how

602
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 2: he gets a star with misses no bats like this

603
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 2: one like feels like most of them. But I don't know,

604
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,040
Speaker 2: we're broken records with these guys because METSA keep doing

605
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:16,159
Speaker 2: the same thing with them, so we just have to

606
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 2: keep saying the same shit to We apologize that for everybody,

607
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:20,720
Speaker 2: but it's just like those guys fit so much better

608
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:22,439
Speaker 2: and that that tween year role to me than just

609
00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:25,399
Speaker 2: traditional starters. And I think that's where we're probably had it,

610
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:25,800
Speaker 2: depending on.

611
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,679
Speaker 1: Especially because uh, you know, Louis Sivorina over here just

612
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:32,600
Speaker 1: continues to shove. I know he only had four strikeouts,

613
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,200
Speaker 1: but he went eight innings, won to earn ninety two pitches.

614
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:39,359
Speaker 1: I mean, he was phenomenal. Again, Like these these are

615
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 1: kind of things where if if you're not a David

616
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,960
Speaker 1: Stern's believer, or if you're not drinking the kool aid

617
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,680
Speaker 1: yet about like him being a good president of Baseball operations,

618
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,120
Speaker 1: you gotta look at the Louis Severino pickup. You gotta

619
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,160
Speaker 1: look at these little moves that have been made, because again,

620
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,440
Speaker 1: the moves that he made this offseason have relatively all

621
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 1: been pretty good outside the Tyrone Taylor Adrian Howser one,

622
00:25:57,800 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 1: but Severino might be one of the best pickups of

623
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 1: the office season. Like, imagine, imagine if a good baseball

624
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,959
Speaker 1: team at Luis Severino like he would be, he'd be coveted.

625
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 2: Have a story.

626
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,680
Speaker 1: It's the cheap one year contract with what's essentially going

627
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,399
Speaker 1: to be a team slash player option at the end

628
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:15,000
Speaker 1: of the year because he never got given the qualifying offer.

629
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 1: This this guy is gonna if the Mets are still

630
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:19,719
Speaker 1: completely like let's just say the Mets are completely out

631
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:22,160
Speaker 1: of it, he is going to get back a premium

632
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:23,560
Speaker 1: return at the deadline, no.

633
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:25,800
Speaker 2: Chunk, Like it's it's a shitty thing to hear him

634
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,120
Speaker 2: to say out loud, like we're gonna keep drop these

635
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:31,720
Speaker 2: trade deadline bread crumbs next few episodes. But there's a

636
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:34,720
Speaker 2: world where you might get a better prospect. I think

637
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:38,120
Speaker 2: you are, and that's gonna be a miserable pillow swallow,

638
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 2: but it's gonna be a kin to like what happened

639
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:45,880
Speaker 2: last deadline with robertson Tommy fam and they traded oh

640
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,680
Speaker 2: trade can yes, and like they got it's not it's

641
00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:50,879
Speaker 2: not in the same milk, but like you just sometimes

642
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:52,879
Speaker 2: trade deadline. The whit teams value players is weird. And

643
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:54,600
Speaker 2: the way Luis Arian's picture right at the length that

644
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,399
Speaker 2: he's giving, the way that he's even still not able

645
00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 2: to click with these Auste pitchers, these breaking balls, it's

646
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,880
Speaker 2: just he and like it's mappy. Though velosity rebounded last start,

647
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:04,440
Speaker 2: seemed to all be the stomach bug that like push

648
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:06,120
Speaker 2: him down and not haven't pitched that well, but it's

649
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:08,920
Speaker 2: just just he just looks, looks at the bad and

650
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:10,359
Speaker 2: it says, fuck you. There's ninety eight. If you want

651
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 2: to hit it, you could try and hit it. But

652
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:14,679
Speaker 2: I'm so oppressed every you know I am. I got

653
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 2: dunked on Twitter this week because I had a tweet

654
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,480
Speaker 2: when we were at your birthday, actually at Rock and

655
00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:22,400
Speaker 2: rolla a few months ago, and I just sweet, Luis,

656
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 2: everyone's gonna have a lower ara of Marcus Stroman this season.

657
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 2: It was right after the Yankee Times Strowman and I

658
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:27,639
Speaker 2: got like a thousand likes. I got a ton of

659
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,399
Speaker 2: engagement Yankee fans and Mess fans alike. And Stroman had

660
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,199
Speaker 2: like a start the other day and I got so

661
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:33,920
Speaker 2: many quot teas from Yankees swear. I was like, yeah,

662
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:35,840
Speaker 2: you thought you thought I was like every you having

663
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 2: a bad year. It's like this, this debate is three

664
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,040
Speaker 2: three verse two eight right now. Guys like this because

665
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:41,920
Speaker 2: flip switch on a dime like I would, I would

666
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 2: relax with the victory laps in June. But he's pitching awesome.

667
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:49,160
Speaker 2: And this has been like, like you said, such a

668
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,679
Speaker 2: positive consequence of David Stearns, Like this is the kind

669
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:53,360
Speaker 2: of shit where this happens. And next and we're gonna

670
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:54,959
Speaker 2: talk about the bullpen a little bit, which is like

671
00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:57,399
Speaker 2: this means that shit it's worse. Like this means that

672
00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,080
Speaker 2: shit's going the way it supposed to go. And I

673
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,359
Speaker 2: just fucking love him. He pitches like he's another guy

674
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 2: who plays like he's trying to fucking earn it. Like

675
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:06,120
Speaker 2: he goes out there, he's like I don't want things

676
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:07,520
Speaker 2: to go well in this game. I'm gonna make them

677
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 2: go well, Like I am going to win this game,

678
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:10,639
Speaker 2: Like I'm gonna cut my teeth and I'm gonna just

679
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:12,639
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go out and dog this thing.

680
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:15,200
Speaker 1: No, I've been loving the way Severe has been pitching.

681
00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a shame when we get rid of him.

682
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:18,400
Speaker 1: But he's gonna get something back for us for sure.

683
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,399
Speaker 1: Now on the flip, oh you got something else? What

684
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 1: you got?

685
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:22,960
Speaker 2: I want something I forgot to talk about. We're talking

686
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:24,640
Speaker 2: about the baby Vantos thing. It was a great meme

687
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,359
Speaker 2: from a Mike five five five great Mets memer on

688
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,440
Speaker 2: the on the Twitter sphere, and it was a picture

689
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 2: of Mike Davis Lukas Duda and it said britt Baby

690
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:38,560
Speaker 2: versus Marcoltos And I was like, damn, that one hit

691
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:41,760
Speaker 2: deeps And that was like the Mets have such a

692
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,960
Speaker 2: such a like stranglehold on my Twitter that like these

693
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 2: like we get every tweet about the Mets, like even

694
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:49,920
Speaker 2: this tweet, like that's such a niche Mets moment that's

695
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 2: in history. He's got a thousand likes, over one hundred

696
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 2: thousand impressions, just to show like the psycho Mets fans

697
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:58,000
Speaker 2: on Twitter all day long. But that is looking like

698
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 2: something that feels so real right now.

699
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:03,680
Speaker 1: Really, that really hurt. I wish i'd never heard that.

700
00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 1: I didn't see the meme again, I've been busy over

701
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:08,960
Speaker 1: here gallivanting on the on the old course that's Saint Andrew's.

702
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:11,360
Speaker 2: But that's why I wanted to tell you that, because

703
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:14,040
Speaker 2: I figured were the mistap but kind of relevant. And

704
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:17,280
Speaker 2: there's kind of a similar feeling inside my heart seeing that.

705
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:19,600
Speaker 1: God, I want to stop thinking about that. I want

706
00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:21,719
Speaker 1: to stop thinking about that. I hate that, all right, bullpen,

707
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:23,960
Speaker 1: Let me get mad about the bullpen a little bit. Man,

708
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 1: is Adam Outavio dead as good as he was to

709
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:28,200
Speaker 1: start the year, it might be time to take him

710
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 1: behind the barn here and and and call it a career.

711
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 1: I mean, he's so crazy broken right now. He's almost

712
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:35,080
Speaker 1: unusable at this point.

713
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 2: No, the race climbed to six. It's just the sweepers

714
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:42,520
Speaker 2: are being seen. The philosophy's been down, like appearance over appearance.

715
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,200
Speaker 2: His pitches are moving a little bit less. His sweeper

716
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,000
Speaker 2: on him. He only threw a few of them, so

717
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 2: it's not a good sample size to tell it was

718
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:49,920
Speaker 2: only three of them because they had to just get

719
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:52,200
Speaker 2: him out because he kept giving up runs. Sweeper was

720
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:55,680
Speaker 2: moving five inches less on average horizontally. Really bad. Only

721
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 2: three pitches, but he's usually averaging eighteen inches of break

722
00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 2: and the start he had pitches ranging from eleven inches

723
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 2: to fourteen inches. It's bad.

724
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, he uh, he's been doing I don't know if

725
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:08,920
Speaker 1: you've noticed watching the games or not, but he comes

726
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:10,440
Speaker 1: out of the game and he like never has his

727
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:12,880
Speaker 1: hat on, which is super interesting for a baseball player.

728
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:14,920
Speaker 1: That's not really the point here, but he's always got

729
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:17,960
Speaker 1: this like after the game, like a confused look. He's

730
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:21,280
Speaker 1: always like squinting and being like what, I still don't

731
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 1: understand why this isn't working. It's like, dude, you might

732
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:24,800
Speaker 1: just be old and it might be over.

733
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 2: I am lot of evens a New York guy, and

734
00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:29,400
Speaker 2: that comes from the George Castana Costanza school of not

735
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,040
Speaker 2: performing well at work, where like if you're if you're

736
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,480
Speaker 2: not and the few office jobs that have my life.

737
00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:38,120
Speaker 2: I mastered this art where if like you're if you're

738
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:40,160
Speaker 2: not doing well, or if you're not busy but you

739
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 2: want to pretend you're busy, you have to look mad

740
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:44,680
Speaker 2: and confused. You have to sit there at your desk.

741
00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:46,280
Speaker 2: There was some one of my one of my old jobs,

742
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 2: I did this too, and I called him out and

743
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:51,200
Speaker 2: he was like, you got me but an old school guy.

744
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:53,440
Speaker 2: But it's just you gotta just be like at your desk.

745
00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 2: You gotta look into the sky, you gotta pretend to

746
00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 2: count things. You gotta look at the desk and like

747
00:30:57,680 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 2: you look longingly out.

748
00:30:58,880 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 1: That's all he.

749
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:01,440
Speaker 2: Does, That's what I'm saying, because he knows he's struggling.

750
00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:03,080
Speaker 2: He knows it probably might be over. But he's like

751
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 2: he's gonna like, let me get back in the iPad,

752
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 2: let me see what was wrong there. And it might

753
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,120
Speaker 2: it might have just happened. But I don't know. The

754
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 2: guy they helped to throw hi out there, I guess.

755
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:12,680
Speaker 2: But it's happy to see Drew Smith gets feedback onto him.

756
00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 2: Have some good addings the series, and of course the

757
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:19,080
Speaker 2: new King Dead Neille Noon. Yes, fucking awesome, man. I

758
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,640
Speaker 2: love this guy. He There's so many people that deep

759
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 2: in the Mets community that are like really happy for

760
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 2: Dadaneielle because he was a Mets prospect forever and he's

761
00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 2: a little bit older. News but we lost him the

762
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:29,920
Speaker 2: Rule five draft a few years ago. Giants took him

763
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:32,640
Speaker 2: and then he got Tommy John Surgery toward the UCL

764
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:34,560
Speaker 2: just before the season, and you're not gonna hold a

765
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:36,600
Speaker 2: guy with Tommy John Surgery's got in the realle five drafts.

766
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,400
Speaker 2: So we actually got returned to the Mets before last season,

767
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 2: and he's got forty percent stright, got ran in about

768
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 2: ten innings. It's not a joke. The fastballs up to

769
00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,120
Speaker 2: ninety eight miles an hour, the slider's eighty seven like

770
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 2: he is, he's really good. And with Redgaret being so so,

771
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 2: Alvino being broken and Edmund Diaz now it seems like

772
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:54,400
Speaker 2: maybe it was a fake injury because he's already in

773
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 2: rehab assignment. So I'll I'll give you a tip the

774
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:59,600
Speaker 2: cap on that one to you. But Daniel's that's good

775
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:01,640
Speaker 2: a fireman as anybody like I to ask you, I

776
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 2: don't I don't know who opening that door to the bullpen.

777
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:06,240
Speaker 2: I trust more and deadniel nunia is right.

778
00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:11,720
Speaker 1: Now, Oh, this is this team, this team really like

779
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 1: I'm glad ded Neeielle nunia is great, But hearing that

780
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,240
Speaker 1: sentence is also just insane.

781
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:18,880
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's because it's name of the guy,

782
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:19,960
Speaker 2: name of the guy who trusts.

783
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:24,040
Speaker 1: More can't uh, Drew Smith, I still trust read Garrett.

784
00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:25,760
Speaker 1: Just make sure it's not the ninth inning. That's it.

785
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,000
Speaker 2: That's the only thing you gotta do. Uh, boy, just

786
00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:29,520
Speaker 2: make sure he's not coming in the ninth our boy.

787
00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:31,880
Speaker 2: Isaac Groffman, king of the Mets pitching threads. He did

788
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 2: a big thread about Daniel Nuniaz this week. It was

789
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 2: actually last weekend, but just the fact that he was

790
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 2: like legitimately good, and it was like he's twenty seven

791
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:40,680
Speaker 2: years old, Like don't let that fool you. Like this

792
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,120
Speaker 2: stuff is real. Like the fastball slider combination as of

793
00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:46,000
Speaker 2: the bullpen is awesome. Heven on our slide ninety six

794
00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:47,720
Speaker 2: nine seven on our fastball, like you can't fake that.

795
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:49,479
Speaker 2: And the way that he's getting he misses in these

796
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,760
Speaker 2: pitches like basically fifty percent. Maybe it's just a league

797
00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 2: hasn't caught up to him yet, but it works and

798
00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:57,000
Speaker 2: we're gonna keep doing it as it works.

799
00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,400
Speaker 1: Apologies for those of you listening or watching if it's

800
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:01,760
Speaker 1: a little bit chop. Something's going on with my mic

801
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:04,840
Speaker 1: I don't know what's happening. But it just starts crackling randomly,

802
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:07,080
Speaker 1: so you might hear a little more choppy than normal.

803
00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 1: It is what it is. What were we talking about?

804
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:11,600
Speaker 1: We were talking about the Mets bullpen.

805
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just said, is there anyone's bulletening trust mont Rigue,

806
00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:16,440
Speaker 2: that dad Neeel Nuniaz and you were trying to pretend

807
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:17,560
Speaker 2: there was there was somebody.

808
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:21,240
Speaker 1: Okay, listen, call me out out. I guess maybe I'm

809
00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 1: not as hip to dead Neil Nunia's as you, James.

810
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 1: I know you're you're the pitching whisperer. I'm gonna trust

811
00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:27,520
Speaker 1: in you. If you say dead Nielle is that guy,

812
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:29,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get behind him. You know who's also been

813
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:34,280
Speaker 1: that guy recently? Francisco motherfucking Lindor. That dude has been

814
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:37,160
Speaker 1: balling out bever since being moved to the leadoff spot.

815
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,720
Speaker 1: Seems like it's completely changed. What's going on with him.

816
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:41,959
Speaker 1: Also could be the fact that he got a new

817
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,840
Speaker 1: prescription on those glasses probably helping a little bit that

818
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:46,800
Speaker 1: maybe he's seeing the ball better. And I think the

819
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,960
Speaker 1: Mets should really do eye tests with every single player

820
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 1: every single year. It looks like there's there's a inefficiency

821
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:56,480
Speaker 1: in the market here where the Mets aren't realizing that

822
00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:58,960
Speaker 1: players eyesite changes. You need to make sure they have

823
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:01,960
Speaker 1: good eyesight eat those It's whatever it is. But Lindor

824
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 1: has just been on an absolute tear since moving to

825
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:07,480
Speaker 1: the leadoff spot, and it has changed the outlook of

826
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,680
Speaker 1: this lineup. It's changed I hope some people's opinions of

827
00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:13,040
Speaker 1: how Lindor has been playing. He's been really good. That

828
00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 1: app ops is up to I think like seven to

829
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:16,200
Speaker 1: twenty now it is up.

830
00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 2: To seven twenty one oh five WRC plus since being

831
00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:20,880
Speaker 2: moved to ledof spot on May eighteenth, the game in

832
00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:24,560
Speaker 2: Miami three nineteen three eighty four eighty six triple slash

833
00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:26,440
Speaker 2: with a one to fifty WRC plus. And I think

834
00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:29,000
Speaker 2: a big part of this is just that, like we

835
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:31,680
Speaker 2: were saying was going to happen, like Francisco, Lindor's luck

836
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:34,040
Speaker 2: has swung back. He had one of the worst batting

837
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:35,840
Speaker 2: average of balls in play in the entire league for

838
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:38,120
Speaker 2: the first month and half the season, and now since

839
00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:40,000
Speaker 2: he got moved to leo spot, his bagging average balls

840
00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:42,719
Speaker 2: and play is nearly four hundred. So once again it'll

841
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 2: swing back again. But it's just this is this is

842
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:47,279
Speaker 2: something that's real with Lindor. He's stealing bases again. He's

843
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:49,080
Speaker 2: up to nine homers and nine steals on the season,

844
00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,560
Speaker 2: so that's again pacing for like a twenty seven twenty

845
00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:52,920
Speaker 2: seven season, which is awesome.

846
00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:55,400
Speaker 1: He got his tenth home run if you count. I

847
00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:57,839
Speaker 1: don't think the it's updates, oh yeah, because remember it's

848
00:34:57,840 --> 00:34:59,480
Speaker 1: three o'clock in the morning. Three o'clock in the morning

849
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:01,000
Speaker 1: has an update yet. But he could get his tenth

850
00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:01,520
Speaker 1: home run.

851
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, so that average would be up to like

852
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:05,880
Speaker 2: what three twenty five on base like three ninety and

853
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:07,440
Speaker 2: then it's like a missage about five hundred.

854
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 1: So's having a good little little season.

855
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:13,640
Speaker 2: We got Dog, We got Dog in the podcast Dog

856
00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:17,080
Speaker 2: Dog Dog on the podcast Dog on the podcast. Yeah,

857
00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 2: but the door, it looks awesome and it's happy. I

858
00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:20,160
Speaker 2: think him like that, and you could just feel it

859
00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:21,799
Speaker 2: like he kind of drives the whole team. He drives

860
00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:24,520
Speaker 2: all energy. When he's playing well, everyone plays better. The

861
00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:26,320
Speaker 2: game on wednsay, him and Pete had the four hardested

862
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:28,440
Speaker 2: balls in the game. It's just situation again, like we

863
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:30,440
Speaker 2: are better than you, we will defeat you, and it's

864
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:32,600
Speaker 2: just really nice to see all this come together. But

865
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:34,239
Speaker 2: there was one thing that happened with ciscle in Door

866
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:36,440
Speaker 2: this week that was weird to me and Rugby a

867
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:39,279
Speaker 2: bit the wrong way. And it comes back to the

868
00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:42,560
Speaker 2: Mets seemingly just being a perpetually onlines in an organization

869
00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 2: and maybe being a little bit insecure in like their

870
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:46,160
Speaker 2: marketing and their social media where they put out an

871
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:48,799
Speaker 2: All Star ad and for ciscal Indoor wasn't on it.

872
00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:52,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's like almost cripp Actually it's not almost cool.

873
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:55,719
Speaker 1: It is criminal the fact that your three hundred million

874
00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:58,840
Speaker 1: dollar player is not And maybe we're looking into it

875
00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:01,800
Speaker 1: too much, maybe we're just again maybe a little jaded,

876
00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,600
Speaker 1: uh and jaded. We're jaded. We're not a little jaded.

877
00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:08,759
Speaker 1: We are upset. But the fact that he's not on

878
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:11,239
Speaker 1: the promo for the All Star Game voting for a

879
00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:14,960
Speaker 1: guy who still hasn't made the All Star starter right

880
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 1: or All Star team as a New York Met really bizarre,

881
00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:22,439
Speaker 1: especially because now now I'm really reading into a Pete

882
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:24,160
Speaker 1: Alonso was on there and we don't think he's gonna

883
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:26,200
Speaker 1: be on this team in August. So weird that you're

884
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:28,239
Speaker 1: pushing a guy that might be traded who also is

885
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:30,520
Speaker 1: not playing at an all star level, Like it's not

886
00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:32,680
Speaker 1: like he is having this incredible year where it's like

887
00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:34,000
Speaker 1: we got to get our guy in.

888
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 2: Weird and Francisco Lindor of course, leads the Mets in war.

889
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:40,680
Speaker 2: It's over two war in the season. He has the

890
00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 2: eleventh most wins above replacement in the National League. He

891
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:47,120
Speaker 2: has the third most among National League shortstops, but fourth

892
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,000
Speaker 2: most because I mean, because I think it's like Mooki

893
00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:51,319
Speaker 2: is definitely the star there at short stop the National League.

894
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:54,600
Speaker 2: That's that question. La dela Cruz to be on the team,

895
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:56,960
Speaker 2: But then the last spot is definitely between Francisco and

896
00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:00,160
Speaker 2: Door and Willia Damas, And that's not something that be

897
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:01,799
Speaker 2: taken lightly. Those are two guys who are not having

898
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:03,920
Speaker 2: very different seasons at all. So two guys who were

899
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:05,759
Speaker 2: within a fifth of a win, which is basically the

900
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:07,680
Speaker 2: same thing, like between like a half of a war.

901
00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:09,840
Speaker 2: People like to cite war all the time. That's almost

902
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,759
Speaker 2: kind of just a rounding error. So it's I don't know,

903
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:14,600
Speaker 2: I just you gotta have confidence in your guy, like

904
00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 2: maybe he didn't want to be on there, like maybe

905
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 2: he's like, I'm not playing well enough. Like post Darling

906
00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:19,200
Speaker 2: Marte in there, he's having a better season than me.

907
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:21,319
Speaker 2: But also, yeah, Starling Marte was on there.

908
00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:21,960
Speaker 1: What the fuck?

909
00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. It's like Lindor has ten home runs,

910
00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:26,880
Speaker 2: nine steals he had, he's been in the gaverage officially

911
00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 2: with the bat. The ops is into the sevens and

912
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:30,240
Speaker 2: he's worth over two war.

913
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:33,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's it's like you said at the

914
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:34,239
Speaker 1: end of the year, it's gonna end up being a

915
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:36,839
Speaker 1: nice year. Just digging those numbers up and up and up,

916
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:40,239
Speaker 1: keep on climbing. Make those old Mets fans mad when

917
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:42,279
Speaker 1: you start playing well. And I'm cool with it again.

918
00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:44,520
Speaker 1: Good Lindor is good for this New York Mets team

919
00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:47,440
Speaker 1: and he has been very good. Uh. Some other housekeeping

920
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:52,840
Speaker 1: notes around uh around this series. Shout Jacob Barnes very angry.

921
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:55,640
Speaker 1: This series seem to come off the mountain screaming. The

922
00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:59,319
Speaker 1: other night was Frush five that get That dude is

923
00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:02,719

00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:05,800
Speaker 1: human looks. Nationals got. They got a lot of strong

925
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:07,880
Speaker 1: people on that team. Jacob Jung too is just like

926
00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:11,280
Speaker 1: built like an Ox and they don't even have Stone Garrett,

927
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:15,400
Speaker 1: who might be the most monster, most built player in

928
00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:17,800
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball I can think of, got some muscles

929
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 1: on this Nationals team. Not a lot of wins, but

930
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:21,239
Speaker 1: they got some muscles. Still.

931
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:23,440
Speaker 2: Garrett looks like it, likes like like the running back

932
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:25,840
Speaker 2: for Tulsa, like that would be his role, like in

933
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:28,680
Speaker 2: a perfect life. But also love every single time we

934
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:32,200
Speaker 2: get to Washington, Howie Rose fucking hates that place because

935
00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:34,920
Speaker 2: they put the TV and radio visiting TV and radio

936
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:37,279
Speaker 2: boots like in the corner of the outfield so he

937
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:39,040
Speaker 2: couldn't see. There was a moment to end the game

938
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:41,800
Speaker 2: on Tuesday where strange moment where like Starling Marte and

939
00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 2: Harrison Bader came together in short red field and Marte

940
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:47,759
Speaker 2: caught the ball and he was very truly mad at

941
00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:49,640
Speaker 2: Harrison Beata for coming in that play as a center

942
00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:52,640
Speaker 2: fielder trying to make a play, especially Starling marts and

943
00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:54,439
Speaker 2: shake his hell in the outfield. I don't fall tyres

944
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:56,719
Speaker 2: in Beta for trying to catch a ball, but I

945
00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:58,360
Speaker 2: was like, I can't see it. I can't see you

946
00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:00,600
Speaker 2: call it. Someone called it put in the I hate

947
00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:02,320
Speaker 2: this place. Like that was how we signed off on

948
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:05,400
Speaker 2: the call. But that was really cool and I mean

949
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:07,040
Speaker 2: it gets a fun series. Nice to go and beat

950
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 2: the Nationals like we used to doing.

951
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:11,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, and we got the London series coming up. The

952
00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:15,640
Speaker 1: Mets are currently on flights to London, so we will

953
00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:18,439
Speaker 1: see them there shortly. Again, the boys are across the pond.

954
00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:20,759
Speaker 1: We're gonna be in London for the London series. If

955
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:22,839
Speaker 1: you guys are around. We're trying to figure out some

956
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:25,239
Speaker 1: sort of meet up with you guys if you're in

957
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:27,719
Speaker 1: London to watch the series. I think James, you have

958
00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 1: the details a little bit more. We don't have a

959
00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:30,920
Speaker 1: place yet, but we have a general area.

960
00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:33,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're gonna meet up in hackney Wick, which is

961
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:36,400
Speaker 2: near west Ham, which is where the game is being played.

962
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 2: I was talking to my guy Kenny, Dutch Mets fan

963
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 2: met last year. I was talking to my guy Ian

964
00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:42,880
Speaker 2: who's a London there, who was giving me some recommendations

965
00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:44,839
Speaker 2: place to go. Like you say, he supports west Ham

966
00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:46,840
Speaker 2: or at least goes to games, so he had some

967
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,080
Speaker 2: said some good pubs either food or no food around

968
00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:51,200
Speaker 2: hackney Wick. It seems to me like Hackneywick is kind

969
00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:53,680
Speaker 2: of the Bushwick of London, which is hilarious. That's where

970
00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:56,279
Speaker 2: the Mets are playing this game. But I'm I'll feel

971
00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:58,759
Speaker 2: comfortable there, whichould be nice. But we're gonna pick a spot.

972
00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 2: We're gonnaweet that. We're gona instagram probably Friday afternoon and

973
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 2: probably reposted on Saturday morning, so people know. Again, this

974
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:06,560
Speaker 2: is all UK time, So sorry if you guys get

975
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:09,279
Speaker 2: spammed in America. We've been so dead in social media too,

976
00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:11,759

Speaker 2: We're gonna talk about it. It's yeah, that's that's we

980
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:21,560
Speaker 2: got Seanman and I Katana going across the bod. I

981
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:23,560
Speaker 2: don't think we're I don't thin we're gonna grab any

982
00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:26,839
Speaker 2: fans with those two guys, but uh, it's gonna be fun.

983
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:28,239
Speaker 2: I'm really excited to see this. I'm really excited to

984
00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:29,680
Speaker 2: have his experience. I know you've gotten the last couple

985
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 2: of years and you've spoken like so highly, so glowingly

986
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:33,920
Speaker 2: of it. We love England over here too well. I

987
00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 2: love London, great country, great people, the best. Uh, but

988
00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:41,839
Speaker 2: it's gonna be a really fun time and I'm very

989
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:44,000
Speaker 2: excited to be in it and see what English people

990
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:44,880
Speaker 2: think of the Mets.

991
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, uh, they're they're they're gonna see the

992
00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:49,279
Speaker 1: Mets all right, Like you said, Sean and I and

993
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:52,480
Speaker 1: Jose Kintana, what an injustice to the game of baseball.

994
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:55,840
Speaker 1: We're gonna be showing them. Man, I don't know why

995
00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:58,960
Speaker 1: did Jose No, he didn't, he didn't. I was gonna say,

996
00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:01,560
Speaker 1: did Jose Kingtana pitch London before? But he wasn't on

997
00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:04,920
Speaker 1: any of the teams before that, so my brain's all

998
00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:05,399
Speaker 1: messed up.

999
00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:07,680
Speaker 2: And also the Phillies are pitching rangers for as in

1000
00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:10,000
Speaker 2: Taiwan Walker, so the Londoners are not going to see

1001
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:11,959
Speaker 2: a fastball above ninety four miles an hour from start.

1002
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:13,799
Speaker 2: There these two games a really bringing the best.

1003
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:15,920
Speaker 1: Did you see Wo's throwing out the first pitch in London?

1004
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:20,920
Speaker 2: Yeah? Matthew Broderick is so random, insane. He's got to

1005
00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:23,799
Speaker 2: be half English, right, mat does he what team does

1006
00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:24,000
Speaker 2: he like?

1007
00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:25,279
Speaker 1: He's gotta be a Met fan? Right?

1008
00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:28,279
Speaker 2: I'm sure he feels like a half English lives like

1009
00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:29,399
Speaker 2: grew up in York. Kind of thing.

1010
00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:30,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't.

1011
00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:32,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm was happy to pick someone with out of

1012
00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:33,000
Speaker 2: a problematic past.

1013
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:37,239
Speaker 1: If Feriris Bueller, I got nothing else for that. I

1014
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:39,040
Speaker 1: got nothing else for that. All right, let's go ahead

1015
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:41,319
Speaker 1: and do a quick little prospect report for you. Again.

1016
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:43,000
Speaker 1: We are away, so we're not going to give you

1017
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:46,759
Speaker 1: the densest of prospect reports here. But Baseball America did

1018
00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:49,560
Speaker 1: just drop their new top one hundred prospects, as they do.

1019
00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:51,560
Speaker 1: They've been updating every single month, and the Mets got

1020
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:53,880
Speaker 1: six of them. We got a new one in there, James, who.

1021
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:58,080
Speaker 2: Is it brandon'sproteary. We did it, Joe, We fucking did it.

1022
00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:00,799
Speaker 2: Mission accomplished. I was so excited I saw this. I

1023
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:03,360
Speaker 2: got tagged it like four times in Baseball America posted it.

1024
00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:06,200
Speaker 2: That's why I DM mat Daddy. I was like, Brandon's browed,

1025
00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:09,040
Speaker 2: Brandon sprewed, but I was like, I can't believe it.

1026
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,479
Speaker 2: Like he's the top hundred prospect. The prophecy's fulfilled itself

1027
00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:13,560
Speaker 2: at least, not a guy you Brandon sprote He has

1028
00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:16,200
Speaker 2: best start of his career in Double A over the weekend,

1029
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:18,200
Speaker 2: where it was seven innings, nine more strikeouts, one hit,

1030
00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:21,959
Speaker 2: I think one walk, no runs, and he's awesome. There's

1031
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:23,799
Speaker 2: nothing really say about Brandon Sport right now. Him and

1032
00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:25,439
Speaker 2: Blade hid what both got in the end of the list.

1033
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:27,040
Speaker 2: I think they were ninety eight and ninety nine or

1034
00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:29,680
Speaker 2: ninety seven ninety eight the six players the Mets had

1035
00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:32,040
Speaker 2: in Baseball America's Top one hundred and second most in

1036
00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:35,560
Speaker 2: Baseball I think, only behind the Baltimore Orioles. And that

1037
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,640
Speaker 2: even comes with Louis and Helacune dropping off the list.

1038
00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:40,960
Speaker 2: And I want to say someone else dropped off the

1039
00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:43,560
Speaker 2: list as well, but it was Gilbert, it was Williams,

1040
00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:48,319
Speaker 2: it was Christian Scott, it was Tidwell, it was oh

1041
00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:50,719
Speaker 2: my god. I I think it was still Mauricio weirdly enough,

1042
00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:54,400
Speaker 2: and it was Brandon Sprot. So very relevant the Mets.

1043
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:56,640
Speaker 2: As bad as the season has been, there's still have

1044
00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:57,640
Speaker 2: to have a lot of belief in what we're doing

1045
00:42:57,680 --> 00:43:00,760
Speaker 2: player development, with player development, and it was really encouraging

1046
00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:02,560
Speaker 2: to see that in the newest Baseball marrakup date.

1047
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:04,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, super cool to see the Sproke Cooat make

1048
00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:07,680
Speaker 1: it onto the top one hundred really vindicate all of

1049
00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:09,480
Speaker 1: James's takes here. But you've been you've been on the

1050
00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:11,480
Speaker 1: money with this guy. He's been really, really good, and

1051
00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:13,200
Speaker 1: he threw a hundred right the other day. I think

1052
00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:15,160
Speaker 1: I saw the tweet too, urs like pretty spurred, one

1053
00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:18,479
Speaker 1: hundred undred, one hundred and one, even better, even better,

1054
00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:20,279
Speaker 1: not just one hundred one hundred and one. Fuck you

1055
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:23,200
Speaker 1: slow fastballs, we throw hard here. Also part of the

1056
00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:25,240
Speaker 1: Prospect report, you guys might have heard of in Francisco.

1057
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:29,880
Speaker 1: Alvarez rehabbing out in Binghamton and Brooklyn caught a combined

1058
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:32,279
Speaker 1: no hitter for the Cyclones the other night. Shout out

00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:41,680
Speaker 1: good Italian? And Joshua Cornelli. Who that guy's Venezuelan? Would

1061
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:44,600
Speaker 1: you have guessed Joshua Cornelli is from Venezuela.

1062
00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:48,000
Speaker 2: Definitely not, but also would not have guessed there though

1063
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 2: it was Venezuela.

1064
00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:51,080
Speaker 1: It's fair, but yeah, shout out to Alva. Shout to

1065
00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:52,960
Speaker 1: the guys in Brooklyn throwing to combine no hitter. I'm

1066
00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:55,560
Speaker 1: sure it's also really cool for them to pitch to

1067
00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:59,560
Speaker 1: a guy like Alvarez. Where Like again lisan al Gaib

1068

Speaker 1: more of a credit again to Francisco Alvarez's ability to

1071
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:10,000
Speaker 1: call a game, the props that he got from Scherzer

1072
00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:12,239
Speaker 1: into Gram and Verlander and all those guys are just like,

1073
00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:14,840
Speaker 1: this dude's such a fucking dog. I can't wait to

1074
00:44:14,840 --> 00:44:18,880
Speaker 1: see him back. Even though Louis Torrenz's elite, Louise Torenz's elite,

1075
00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:20,359
Speaker 1: but I can't wait to actually see a really good

1076
00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:21,120
Speaker 1: catcher play suit.

1077
00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:25,040
Speaker 2: It's also definitely something too, like alva Is walking into

1078
00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:27,040
Speaker 2: that high a locker room is probably a trip because

1079
00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:29,440
Speaker 2: he's like twenty three. He's young, He's younger than half

1080
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:30,840
Speaker 2: the guy's there, and he probably comes in with a

1081
00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:32,799
Speaker 2: crazy vibe, crazy, and she probably puts his arm around

1082
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:34,600
Speaker 2: all the young guys, probably talks to all the Latin dudes,

1083
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:35,920
Speaker 2: and he's like, well, I know this place in Brooklyn,

1084
00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:37,319
Speaker 2: I know this place in Cornelle, like I was just

1085
00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:39,800
Speaker 2: here two years ago. But yeah, the last thing in

1086
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:41,600
Speaker 2: the Prospect report too, It's just one hurts me because

1087
00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:43,440
Speaker 2: I wish this guy was pitching this weekend in London.

1088
00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:45,759
Speaker 2: But Christian Scott just had a good star for Triple A.

1089
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:47,520
Speaker 2: We're saving his innings, but he throws five of them

1090
00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:49,960
Speaker 2: in Triple A for some reason, taking money out of

1091
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:50,720
Speaker 2: the young man's pocket.

1092
00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:52,320
Speaker 1: I just had a really good start.

1093
00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:55,960
Speaker 2: Seven strikeouts in five innings, one round, two hits every

1094
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:57,680
Speaker 2: single one of his pitches at least a forty percent

1095
00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:00,359
Speaker 2: with rate. I don't even see what's he me pitch

1096
00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:02,400
Speaker 2: against here. It doesn't matter if they're all minor leaguers,

1097
00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:06,040
Speaker 2: but they they made no hard contact. Really, everything look good.

1098
00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:07,919
Speaker 2: He should be pitching with the major league team.

1099
00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:11,560
Speaker 1: So I have been looking up the players that were

1100
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:14,960
Speaker 1: pitching in that no hitter, and right now, Francis s

1101
00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:18,080
Speaker 1: guyal Res is younger than Joshua Cornelly. He is two

1102
00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:21,439
Speaker 1: years younger than Dakota Hawkins. I'm trying to find Joey

1103
00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:25,440
Speaker 1: Lancelotti here, which let's see how old Joey is. Joey

1104
00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:30,640
Speaker 1: is bang twenty six years old. So franciscoyl Fores is

1105
00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:34,120
Speaker 1: at least at least a year and a half younger

1106
00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:36,959
Speaker 1: than all the guys he caught throw a no hitter

1107
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:39,720
Speaker 1: in Brooklyn. Little bit concerning, but also cool.

1108
00:45:40,239 --> 00:45:42,800
Speaker 2: That's cool and concerning, but that's minor league baseball baby,

1109
00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:44,880
Speaker 2: and I guess he was kind of the Phillies. Preview,

1110
00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:47,000
Speaker 2: we got Manaia versus Rangersjuarez, we got con Ton overs

1111
00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:48,640
Speaker 2: Taiwan Walker and it was gonna be home run Derby.

1112
00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:50,080
Speaker 2: I hope they bring the juice balls out there. But

1113
00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:52,600
Speaker 2: HiT's this up, guys, if you're across the pond. The

1114
00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:54,919
Speaker 2: English are doing horrible English things with this series. They're

1115
00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:57,719
Speaker 2: selling a duel if you've seen it, a Mets and

1116
00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:01,759
Speaker 2: Phillies combined shirt with their low was interspersed on Hawaiian shirt.

1117
00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:03,480
Speaker 2: It's one of the worst things ever. I think we

1118
00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:06,839
Speaker 2: should maybe buy one, maybe lay it on fire. I'm

1119
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:08,520
Speaker 2: thinking about that. That could be something fun we do

1120
00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:10,799
Speaker 2: in the city. London's alawless place like New York, so

1121
00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:13,239
Speaker 2: I think, and the police have sticks like we can

1122
00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:13,879
Speaker 2: have some fun there.

1123
00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:16,120
Speaker 1: I'll get you.

1124
00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:19,120
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I punch in the much ye see. But yeah,

1125
00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:20,680
Speaker 2: we're gonna have some bad English accents. We're gonna do

1126
00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:22,279
Speaker 2: a stupid media marvels also on Sunday after the game.

1127
00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:23,799
Speaker 2: I think we're gonna have some blokes on the show

1128
00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:25,720
Speaker 2: with us, a couple of a couple, couple of proper

00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:33,680
Speaker 2: bring that one to the fold. We're gonna have some fun.

1133
00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:35,160
Speaker 2: I'm very excited to be in England and I think

1134
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:36,600

1147
00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:03,640
Speaker 1: I do have a funny story that I want to

1148
00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:07,799
Speaker 1: share from Scotland which went out last night and I

1149
00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:09,960
Speaker 1: saw I saw a fight which was pretty cool and

1150
00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:13,799
Speaker 1: I might have antagonized a couple of Scottish Chavs as

1151
00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:17,480
Speaker 1: they're called. They have like that crazy like shaved side

1152
00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:19,560
Speaker 1: of the head and then like the mushroom cut hair

1153
00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:24,400
Speaker 1: over top. Basically it Maybe I won't explain the exact

1154
00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:26,040
Speaker 1: reasoning of why the guy got mad, but they were

1155
00:47:26,040 --> 00:47:29,239
Speaker 1: walking through a very crowded pub and the guy's like, oh,

1156
00:47:29,239 --> 00:47:31,080
Speaker 1: you want to touch me, because I wouldn't want to

1157
00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:33,759
Speaker 1: fucking touch you, and he just sucker punched the guy

1158
00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:36,839
Speaker 1: like immediately in the face. It escalated so quickly, and

1159
00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:40,160
Speaker 1: the guy ate it, to which I perceived or proceeded

1160
00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:42,520
Speaker 1: to say, you're a bit You didn't even knock him down.

1161
00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:44,440
Speaker 1: And then that got him even more mad. And I

1162
00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:46,000
Speaker 1: don't think he knew it came from me. He think

1163
00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:48,239
Speaker 1: he came from him and his friends. And they started

1164
00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:50,320
Speaker 1: pushing and shoving each other, and then the rest of

1165
00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:53,319
Speaker 1: the Scottish Chavs came over and threw their beer at

1166
00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:55,839
Speaker 1: the guy and got everyone at the bar soaked. They

1167
00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:57,920
Speaker 1: proceeded to get thrown out. Turns out there were in

1168
00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:00,279
Speaker 1: the Scottish Army. It became a really.

1169
00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:01,320
Speaker 2: Big deal all of a sudden.

1170
00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:03,840
Speaker 1: They need to get like information. Who did it? Was

1171
00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:07,319
Speaker 1: it this guy? Was it that guy? This again? The

1172
00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:09,640
Speaker 1: UK is a pretty insane place.

1173
00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:10,480
Speaker 2: No, it's crazy.

1174
00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:13,560
Speaker 1: I think that like we technically like America came from

1175
00:48:13,560 --> 00:48:16,040
Speaker 1: there because it feels like we couldn't be more different

1176
00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:18,080
Speaker 1: outside of the fact that we're the only countries that

1177
00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:21,400
Speaker 1: really speak English. So bizarre, it couldn't be.

1178
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:24,120
Speaker 2: No more different. But they're also like besides, like American Kinada,

1179
00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:25,640
Speaker 2: I feel like two of the most similar countries in

1180
00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:28,960
Speaker 2: the world. But it's a non serious place. Being here

1181
00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:31,160
Speaker 2: is hysterical, like people just don't act.

1182
00:48:31,200 --> 00:48:31,759
Speaker 1: I love it, but.

1183
00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:33,359
Speaker 2: Regularly, yeah, it's a great place to be, but it's

1184
00:48:33,400 --> 00:48:35,960
Speaker 2: just it's it's so completely bizarre. We're we're gonna have

1185
00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:37,960
Speaker 2: a proper roast in a few days. I'm gonna have

1186
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:40,239
Speaker 2: your punting like, we're gonna do some wild stuff. It's

1187
00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:41,880
Speaker 2: gonna be it gonna be fun time. And we're gonna.

1188
00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:43,600
Speaker 1: Cheeky nandos, James, we're getting cheeking nandos.

1189
00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:46,160
Speaker 2: Ever get cheekingnandos. I think they're bringing that to America.

1190
00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:47,719
Speaker 2: But chicken nandos, I mean Marks a lad. You guys

1191
00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:49,640
Speaker 2: can tell Mark Alad. He's a classic lad of course,

1192
00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:52,279
Speaker 2: but yeah, classic, this is such an n serious country.

1193
00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:54,839
Speaker 2: I'm very excited to have some fun in it. YEP.
