Speaker 1: feed if you have not yet done so. Tonight we're

8
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 1: talking about the Pirates series. I hate when we end

9
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:34,559
Speaker 1: a series last game with a loss. It feels like

10
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,200
Speaker 1: it's so deflating. We'll say this Mets didn't play particularly

11
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,599
Speaker 1: great baseball offensively this entire series, especially in Game three.

12
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,159
Speaker 1: The bats disappeared. We'll talk about the pitching, We'll talk

13
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: about the hitting. We'll talk about the fielding too. Fielding

14
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 1: was a little bit sketchy at times these in this

15
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:50,880

24
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,040
Speaker 1: night for the Orange and Blue both basketball and baseball wise.

25
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:17,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, tough night in general for the Orange of Blue

26
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 2: and not a fun one to deal with. I've just

27
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 2: spent I kept you waiting for me to begin recording,

28
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,400
Speaker 2: so I've been arguing with people on Twitter about about

29
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:26,040
Speaker 2: risk and the Mets risk problems. I was trying to

30
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 2: finish up my roll the World Shift after the next game,

31
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 2: after we get me started. Yeah, all these things happening

32
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 2: on a nice, fun on Wednesday night, But I don't

33
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 2: really want a horrible last game that was like awkward

34
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,400
Speaker 2: and weird than in the rain to selling what was

35
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 2: still like a good series. You still win a series.

36
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 2: You can't really be upset about it. People out there

37
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 2: demanding sweeps over bad teams. They don't really hate that sentiment,

38
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,960
Speaker 2: because this Pirates team is quite bad. But at the

39
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 2: same time, it's kind of just like, I don't know,

40
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 2: you went two or three games. It's hard for me

41
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 2: to actually like come on here and be upset in

42
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 2: any way shape or for him.

43
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, there's there's no feelings of being upset. It's

44
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 1: just I'm gonna be selfish here. I feel like if

45
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 1: the Mets sweep this series, the episode does better on

46
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 1: YouTube and on the audio side. Now that the Mets

47
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 1: lose a boring, dreary game on a Wednesday night, I

48
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,639
Speaker 1: feel like people are not as excited to hear about it,

49
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: just because it's like, oh, the Mets didn't hit Bailey

50
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 1: Falter and that horrible, horrible Pittsburgh Pirates bullpen. But they

51
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: also did beat Paul Skeens in this series, which is

52
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 1: something that I didn't expect to say. Now I'm gonna

53
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:25,960
Speaker 1: say beat Paul Skins with quotation marks because it was

54
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: really more the bullpen and Colin Holderman shout out our boy.

55
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 1: But still they won the game that Paul Skiens started,

56
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:31,680
Speaker 1: which was nice.

57
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 2: Did they not hit Bailey Falter? I mean, you chase

58
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 2: a pitcher in the fourth inning, he you have like

59
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 2: what nine guys on base and other four innings, like,

60
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 2: is that really not hitting the.

61
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 1: Guy didn't score an he runs. This is your whole

62
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 1: you know, risk argument, because you say risk is not

63
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 1: a skill, and I say it very much is.

64
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 2: All right, Well then why how does want so the

65
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 2: get better the risk get better than risk better at bats? Okay,

66
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:53,919
Speaker 2: well taking good that bats?

67
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 1: Is that not wrong? Some bad at bats with runs

68
00:02:58,160 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 1: with scoring position, that's for sure.

69
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 2: Remember I was I got George or Ethan just two

70
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:03,800
Speaker 2: great Mets to other people, but I always confuse them

71
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 2: because I feel like they speak about the Mets in

72
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 2: a similar way. Sorry for confusing you guys. When them

73
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 2: was like this has been a problem for a while,

74
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 2: I was, like, dude, last year the Mets had like

75
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 2: the seventh best batting average the WHO League runs scoring position.

76
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 2: Even this year right now, while we have I think

77
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 2: the twenty fifth or twenty sixth highest batting average for

78
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 2: the risk it's about two twenty two, we have like

79
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 2: the fifteenth highest OPS at around seven to fifteen. So

80
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,359
Speaker 2: it's like it clearly is a situation where these bats

81
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 2: still aren't that bad. They are drawing walks, they're hitting

82
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:28,960
Speaker 2: the ball hard, they're driving the ball, but a lot

83
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,799
Speaker 2: of these times the balls are finding gloves. That did

84
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 2: happen more than a few times in this game. It

85
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 2: happens every single game the Mets play. Again, like in

86
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 2: this game, Bailey falters out of there in the fourth inning,

87
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 2: You've already had eight base runners, and then it just

88
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 2: so happens because this was the game that seemed like

89
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 2: Carlson Doz wanted to get a lot of guys off

90
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 2: their feet for a lot of the same reasons that

91
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 2: we're mentioning now. Where the field was going to be wet.

92
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 2: They knew they were going to play through some range

93
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 2: this game, which we'll talk about in a moment. You're

94
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 2: facing a left handed pitcher. We have had a pretty

95
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 2: crazy stretch of games without off days in the past

96
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 2: month in general, So tomorrow having the off day and

97
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 2: not traveling, the idea that they can give guys two

98
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 2: days off their feet, I think Carltin does jumped to

99
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 2: the opportunity. He was like, yeah, especially guy like Wan

100
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 2: Soa has played every game this year. A guy like

101
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 2: Jeff McNeil who and Barbady who did get into the game,

102
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 2: but they haven't been playing every single day. So it's like,

103
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 2: all right, just take a little breather in this game.

104
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,480
Speaker 2: But in that fourth inning, the big wood turned out

105
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 2: to be the biggest that bat in the game. He

106
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 2: wouldn't have known it at the time, but Jose as

107
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,279
Speaker 2: Ocar comes up with the bases lower than two out

108
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 2: against the of the of course talented the Vontae Chase

109
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 2: showguart of the of the Pirates, and he hits a

110
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 2: line drive for and out and it's like, all right,

111
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,839
Speaker 2: it's okay, two nothing against the Pirates. We have five

112
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 2: more innings of their bullpen. We'll find a way to score.

113
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 2: We just didn't find a way to score. And that's

114
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,359
Speaker 2: kind of I don't know, it's just that's just baseball sometimes.

115
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, the mess did like hit the ball pretty hard

116
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: to know. When Bady came in late in the game,

117
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 1: he hit a line drive right back to Tayner Rainey's

118
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 1: glove one hundred and six miles an hour, and the

119
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:49,839
Speaker 1: foul ball before that, he crushed out the line, the

120
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 1: foul bowl before that, the fly ball in the ninth inning.

121
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 1: That was a homer in seven of thirty ballparks that

122
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 1: he hit, I think as well, one hundred and six

123
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 1: miles an hour. The bats have been phenomenal for baby,

124
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:00,120
Speaker 1: and we'll talk about him a little bit more or

125
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 1: in depth as we talk about his big games coming

126
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: up here. But yeah, they were hitting the ball hard,

127
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: just couldn't find any sort of space to get those runs.

128
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 1: In Game three, and again you mentioned it was a

129
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 1: weird one. It was rainy, there was a ten minute

130
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 1: delayed start fifteen minutes, which I don't think I've ever

131
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 1: remember seeing that little of a delay. And then it

132
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,839
Speaker 1: was also annoying too because about thirty forty five minutes

133
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:24,120
Speaker 1: into the game it started raining cats and dogs like

134
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,719
Speaker 1: crazy to clay homes of courses on the mount, not

135
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:28,720
Speaker 1: Bailey Falter had to be clay homes on the mound,

136
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 1: and he ended up throwing a wild pitch because again

137
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,919
Speaker 1: it was pissing down. It was raining so hard. He

138
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: was keeping his hand inside of his armpit in between

139
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:38,479
Speaker 1: pitches because he wanted to make sure it was dry.

140
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 1: Threw a wild pitch next pitch to Matt Gorski, who's

141
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 1: got one of the weirdest swings I've ever seen. I've

142
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 1: never seen someone balance in the air like he does

143
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 1: waiting for a pitch. You could really fuck with this timing.

144
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 1: I think if you just hang for a second like

145
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 1: Johnny Quato would have a field day with this guy.

146
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 1: But he hung a slider, crushed it, hit a home run.

147
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 1: That kind of started the scoring for the Pirates.

148
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,600
Speaker 2: I mean that was basically the scoring, and Jared Triill

149
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,479
Speaker 2: hit one a few meaings later. Yol, that's kind of it.

150
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,360
Speaker 2: Two home runs this years for my boy jaredar he's

151
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 2: been terrible all year, and of course him and Isaiah

152
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,840
Speaker 2: Kinder full for two guys who have been stinking it

153
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 2: up professionally ass dominating the Mets offensively. That's go glove

154
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 2: winner Jared Trioll, though to you you respect that man

155
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,840
Speaker 2: glove winner too, yeah, as you totally cold glove winning

156
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:22,840
Speaker 2: for Trill. I got a little snarky in my roller

157
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 2: World blurbs about this game because when I was writing

158
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:28,559
Speaker 2: out a Bailey Falter, I said, the game was delayed, dude, terrain,

159
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 2: then a spot shower. It turned into a monsoon briefly

160
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,359
Speaker 2: during the second inning. Luckily for Falter, he only had

161
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:34,840
Speaker 2: to deal with the spot shower by Clay Holmes, so

162
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,040
Speaker 2: victim to the monsoon because like it did feel like that,

163
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 2: like that, as that ending was going on, Clay Holmes

164
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 2: was sailing sweeper after sweeper. I couldn't really figure out why,

165
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:43,800
Speaker 2: for the life of me that he decided to throw

166
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,279
Speaker 2: another sweeper too. Gorski on that three two pitch with

167
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,680
Speaker 2: the brain again pouring down also got squeezed for sure

168
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 2: earlier in that that bat wasn't making good pitches, but

169
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,159
Speaker 2: they were pitches that weren't getting the strikes home, but

170
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 2: the umpire was not calling them.

171
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 1: As he's terrible behind the player as well.

172
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 2: There was one that was on the board, but then

173
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,840
Speaker 2: there was one that was basically just almost exactly right

174
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 2: down the middle, and he didn't get the strike on it,

175
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 2: and he was looking at the umpire like, can you

176
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 2: please help me get off the mound right now? It

177
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 2: is kind of ridiculous. And then Gorsky, who I mean,

178
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna tell you Macworzy's a good player, but

179
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 2: he's got like eighty fifth percentile bat speed, eighty fifth

180
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 2: percentile sprint speed and big ten pride to mc gorsky.

181
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 2: So it's something. It's something on a horrible team like

182
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 2: the Pirates, but again just like a stupid it's a

183
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:23,640
Speaker 2: stupid bad game. Amazing that as these weird things keep

184
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 2: happening during Clay Holme starts, he still manages to find

185
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 2: six innings Like that was at least cool, save when

186
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 2: Hads Cabrera giving us two more. Clay Holmes has now

187
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,240
Speaker 2: gone six innings in four or five starts. He's now

188
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 2: been like the the lank guy in this bullpen, which

189
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 2: is kind of on this rotation, which is kind of

190
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 2: ridiculous to think about, but it's just just as such

191
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 2: a terrible, shit, boring game.

192
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, so then let's move on for a bit.

193
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 1: That's it for Game three. You want to talk about

194
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 1: anything else, because I'm good. I mean, I guess Acunia

195
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 1: playing center field in the last couple of innings was

196
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 1: something to note.

197
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 2: Acuna jumping the center field. Danielle has his first really good, solid,

198
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 2: clean inning of the season where he looked like he

199
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 2: was in control, and the Acunya baby back to back

200
00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 2: warning track shots the ninth inning.

201
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 1: Was the super baty with a eighty six point seven

202
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,600
Speaker 1: mile per hour swing speed on that fly ball hit

203
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 1: to deep center field that was caught. Wow, he's taking

204
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 1: some of the hardest swings in Major League Baseball. And

205
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: I guess I'm just going to kind of parlay that

206
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,120
Speaker 1: into talking about Brett Beatty a little bit. You guys

207
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,120
Speaker 1: want to say one more funny thing about Gorsky, say

208
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 1: one more funny thing about Gorski. So that home run

209
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 1: of the hit was a home run twenty nine out

210
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 1: there the ballparks. You know, the ballparker wasn't a home

211
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 1: round on PNC no course field. Oh okay, weird one,

212
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 1: weird one.

213
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 3: This is a straightforward show, so I'm going to be

214
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 3: very straightforward with everyone about PXG. Fastest way to improve

215
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 3: your performance on the golf course is to get yourself

216
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 3: a PXG golf fitting. Go in there and let the

217
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:41,840
Speaker 3: experts help you.

218
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,079
Speaker 4: I've been using PXG for a few years now. Scotti.

219
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,320
Speaker 4: They are perfect. I love the way they feel. They

220
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 4: fit them perfectly to my swing. They waited at them,

221
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 4: they put grips in them, they put shafts in them,

222
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 4: they use their heads and they fit my swing beautifully.

223
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 4: They have definitely improved my game. They just recently hooked

224
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 4: me up with their new Alan putter, which is off

225
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,200
Speaker 4: the chain. I was draining putts the other day left

226
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 4: and right. So I definitely say go get your fitting

227
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 4: at PXG. Nobody goes golf the way PXG does.

228
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:10,800

234
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:30,560
Speaker 1: But yeah, back to Baty. You guys know, I'm obsessed

235
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 1: with the bat tracking stuff that we can see on

236
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:35,560
Speaker 1: baseball savant to stackcast, the batting stands, all that kind

237
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,960
Speaker 1: of stuff. Just interesting. Of note one we've talked about

238
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,840
Speaker 1: in the past. Baity's playing really well. I think let's

239
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,920
Speaker 1: just start off with there. Baty's playing really good baseball.

240
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 1: He's looking like the hitter that we saw in the

241
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: minor leagues, the guy who hits the ball opposite fields,

242
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:51,080
Speaker 1: some power, getting on base, doing all the great things,

243
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 1: playing great defense. He looks phenomenal. Ops was close to

244
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:57,839
Speaker 1: eight hundred after Game two. One of the reasons this

245
00:09:57,920 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 1: might be is because it seems like he might be

246
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,559
Speaker 1: going back to that triple A kind of approach and

247
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,319
Speaker 1: that style that he played. He's setting the ball to

248
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 1: opposite field a lot more. I know that's something that

249
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 1: both of us were concerned about getting to the major

250
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 1: league level. Typically, you have to be able to pull

251
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: the ball consistently to be able to have these type

252
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,839
Speaker 1: of good numbers, good performances, stay hot. It's a lot

253
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:19,840
Speaker 1: harder to hit the ball opposite field and get hits

254
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 1: in the major leagues. But compared to last year, ret

255
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 1: Baty is laying the ball get a lot deeper this year,

256
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:28,440
Speaker 1: minus three point four inches off the plate, where last

257
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 1: season it was three point four inches in front of

258
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 1: the plate, which would tell you he was actively trying

259
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,200
Speaker 1: to beat the ball out in front pull the baseball.

260
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,320
Speaker 1: Now it seems like he's letting the ball get deeper.

261
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 1: One really, really particularly interesting thing that I saw is

262
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:45,720
Speaker 1: that his distance between his feet in his stance is

263
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 1: drastically smaller. Last year it was thirty eight point eight

264
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,679
Speaker 1: inches between his front foot and his back foot and

265
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:56,440
Speaker 1: his stance. This year it's twenty five inches. That is

266
00:10:56,480 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 1: a massive, massive difference. So he's probably more I don't

267
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 1: want to necessarily say more bounce, but he's probably more loose,

268
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 1: able to use those hips a little bit more. That's

269
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 1: probably why we're also seeing him swing the bats so

270
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 1: hard and hitting the ball so hard consistently.

271
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 2: There's definitely also something to the fact that we've talked

272
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,440
Speaker 2: a lot about Baby's pitch selection being so poor and

273
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 2: not being able to track breaking balls, those extra few

274
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,320
Speaker 2: inches of get letting the ball get deeper while you're

275
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 2: at the play, changing that point of contact inters.

276
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:23,960
Speaker 1: Of difference right now between this year and last year.

277
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:25,280
Speaker 1: That's huge pause.

278
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 2: But while you are giving up those six inches right there,

279
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 2: you're giving up in your point of contact and your

280
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:31,880
Speaker 2: ability to get out in front pull the ball, you're

281
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 2: gaining in your ability to figure out what that pitch

282
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 2: is and thatt split second that you have there. And

283
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 2: a guy like baby, maybe he figured out himself, maybe

284
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:40,679
Speaker 2: one of the best coaches helped to figure out. Maybe

285
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 2: some of the minor leagus help to figure out. But

286
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 2: it's like, hey man, your power is so obscene and

287
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 2: your bat speed is so good up there with the

288
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 2: best guys in the league. You don't need the same

289
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 2: point of contact to regenerate powers a lot of other

290
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,600
Speaker 2: guys do need. So if you need that extra split

291
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 2: second to let the ball travel, to figure out what

292
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 2: pitch that is, and give yourself an extra split second

293
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 2: there again to make that decision, that is how you

294
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 2: can possibly take a step forward. And it does feel

295
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 2: like a little bit as we move forward here that

296
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 2: we saw it before he got sent back down to

297
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 2: the minor leagues. We're seeing it just especially how well

298
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 2: he's playing defense at both third base at second base.

299
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 2: The fact that he's a passable second baseman and by

300
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 2: all accounts of a plus third basement now, which is

301
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 2: something that we would have hoped to have said a

302
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 2: few years ago when he was coming up, and now

303
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 2: the fact that's real, it's like, wow, this is very cool.

304
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 2: HiT's there does seem to be an added level of

305
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 2: comfort here. He's still not exactly working the count the

306
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 2: way we'd love. He's not generating walks. The on base

307
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 2: percenterg still looks like it's something that will lag it. Definitely.

308
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:36,839
Speaker 2: His stat set right now is being dragged up by

309
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 2: what's been really really really good power, which a month

310
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,079
Speaker 2: ago you would say, that's that's the best news I

311
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 2: could ever hear it. Yes, that's where we're at right now,

312
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 2: and that's okay.

313
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,320
Speaker 1: Yeah. If you look at Batty's last fifteen games for

314
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 1: the Mets, he has five homers, eleven RBIs. He's hitting

315
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 1: three to ten with the three fifty six on base

316
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 1: seven sixty two slugging. You can do the math. That's

317
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,319
Speaker 1: around eleven hundred ohps in his last fifteen games for

318
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,080
Speaker 1: the Mets. I mean that is something that I know.

319
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 1: People were taking screenshots to me when I was like,

320
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:04,839
Speaker 1: I love Brett Batty after he hit that big home

321
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,320
Speaker 1: running Game two to put the Mets ahead, They're like,

322
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 1: you said that this guy was lost. He can't do

323
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 1: anything right. He's not gonna make it to Sacramento when

324
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 1: they went to Oakland, well, not Oakland, when they went

325
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 1: to the A's Sacramento, Sacramento. Yeah, that was a stupid

326
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 1: holy shit, it's late. But yeah, because he wasn't. Now

327
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 1: he is consciously hitting the ball good, he's having better

328
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 1: at bats. Again, he's still not walking, like you said,

329
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 1: but maybe the best version of Bete Baty is a

330
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,440
Speaker 1: little more aggressive. Let that ball get deeper, and not

331
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 1: someone who's being patient, patient, patient, getting behind in every

332
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:35,439
Speaker 1: single count.

333
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,079
Speaker 2: And like we started this conversation, like if you look

334
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 2: at Brett Bathy right now, like let's Steven say you're

335
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:41,320
Speaker 2: playing it would be the show and you pull up

336
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 2: a player profile, what's the main tool that you see

337
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 2: that you want to be able to use the most.

338
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 2: It's power? Yeah, who gives a fuck about the other stuff, right, now,

339
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 2: Like right now, you're a part time You tell the infield,

340
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:51,400
Speaker 2: he's trying to make a name for yourself in Major

341
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 2: League Baseball. Whether you're gonna do best, is gonna get there,

342
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 2: It's not gonna be. I mean again, in a perfect world,

343
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,440
Speaker 2: I would like see Brett bay dragmar wall, shot the count,

344
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 2: bring all that stuff in his game together. But as

345
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 2: of right now, we'd like to be sixty tall.

346
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 1: Yeah.

347
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:06,439
Speaker 2: Same, We're still in the tread water period of Brett

348
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:08,839
Speaker 2: Baity's career. Use your best tool to the best of

349
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:10,840
Speaker 2: your abilities. The things that he's doing now that they're

350
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 2: good is swing the bat really hard, hitting the ball

351
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 2: really hard, and as of right now, for the first

352
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 2: time in his career, actually lifting the baseball. The fact

353
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 2: that he's able to do the thing these things and

354
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 2: make this adjustment while he's supporting a fourteen percent bow rate,

355
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 2: that's nine percent of his play appearances. He's already hit

356
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 2: the ball one hundred fourteen miles an hour the season

357
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,440
Speaker 2: like this is those are the things that will be

358
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 2: Brett Baty's carrying tools. If you're going to eventually pull

359
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 2: the ball, do it later. Yeah, as of right now,

360
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 2: he's lifting the ball more than he ever has as

361
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 2: a Major League baseball player, which was the big hurtle

362
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:43,480
Speaker 2: he had to climb before pulling the ball. It was

363
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,280
Speaker 2: lifting the ball because it was just ground ball, ground ball,

364
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 2: ground ball, ground ball. Fifty seven percent ground ball rate,

365
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:49,920
Speaker 2: fifty percent ground ball rate, fifty five percent grand ball rate.

366
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,040
Speaker 2: So far this year only forty five percent ground ball rate.

367
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:54,320
Speaker 2: Those ground balls have turned into flat balls in line drives.

368
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 2: That's what's turning Brett Baity right now over the last

369
00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 2: couple of weeks. It's not only a passable hitter, but

370
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 2: actually a good one, someone who deserves to be in

371
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 2: this line and at least basically every single time we

372
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 2: play a right handed pitcher for the foreseeable future.

373
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean he saved us in game too. That

374
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 1: home run toppic Field was just we needed so badly.

375
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 1: Mitch Keller was doing the classic thing that he does

376
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,600
Speaker 1: against the Mets, which is remember that he is a

377
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 1: talented pitcher and absolutely shoved because he's been horrendous this year.

378
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 1: So bad Mitch Keller. But he comes to the field horrible.

379
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 1: He's fine, terrible, dude. He's like ky rate was like

380
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,880
Speaker 1: sixteen percent I think coming into the game or something ridiculous.

381
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,320
Speaker 2: He's not striking guys out. But Mitch Keller is like

382
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 2: has become like old school chat innings either where, like, yes,

383
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 2: you gotta find a way to respect a guy like

384
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:36,640
Speaker 2: that who's just no I step on the match and

385
00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:38,400
Speaker 2: I planned to throw step he's like twenty eight.

386
00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 1: I'm not respecting a twenty eight year old who's chat

387
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 1: innings either, who throws ninety eight, I can't respect that.

388
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:45,280
Speaker 2: I don't know. I can see Mitch Keller having an

389
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 2: old soul.

390
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 1: I don't know.

391
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 2: Mitch kell has been around a while. He never like

392
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:50,320
Speaker 2: he never went to dead Through with like this incredible

393
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 2: potential he always had, might even still have. He might

394
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 2: go to the new team what he leaves, if he

395
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:56,440
Speaker 2: ever does, he might be Mitch Keller might be like

396
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 2: the nick paved he's thirty one years old on some

397
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 2: teams like dang, you're aw now. But it was a

398
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:03,560
Speaker 2: well pitch game by him. I can't take anything away

399
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 2: from Mitch Keller. We weren't squaring him up ever. He

400
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 2: was striking tons of guys out, but baby bailed us out.

401
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 2: And that was again, like you put a guy like

402
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 2: him in the lineup it's nice that we're in a

403
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 2: spot right now where him and Mark Fiano's can't co exist.

404
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:17,280
Speaker 2: At the same time, it's nice that both of those

405
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 2: guys can play relatively every day because Vanto's hit very

406
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,000
Speaker 2: well for basically going on like thirty full days now.

407
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 2: So it's nice that I'd rather have Jesse Winker in

408
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 2: this line up more often than not. But it's nice

409
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 2: that those two guys both have some wrong way to

410
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,520
Speaker 2: just kind of get comfortable, because this team is probably

411
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 2: the best version of itself by the end of the

412
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,760
Speaker 2: season with both of those guys capable of starting.

413
00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, obligatory mets the podcast mentioning what the Stirling Martee

414
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:39,840
Speaker 1: bring to this team, that's all I'll say.

415
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 2: We'll get to that at some point. I also want

416
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 2: to talk about Code That for a second. I like

417
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 2: how we're working pure backwards in the series, but like

418
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:50,280
Speaker 2: I love the fact that how good code That has

419
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:53,400
Speaker 2: been at limiting runs specifically, and that's why people love

420
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 2: ra You're earned her on an average, It's it's a description

421
00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 2: of how many runs you've given up to this point

422
00:16:57,960 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 2: and the times you pitched the season over nine and

423
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 2: ample sure, and we're seeing all the screenshots of all

424
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:05,320
Speaker 2: the Mets creators and all the accounts on Twitter of

425
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:07,119
Speaker 2: the last couple of days, like best the R in

426
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 2: the league, bestie R in the league, not even close,

427
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:11,200
Speaker 2: and it's like it is pretty close. Guys won one,

428
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 2: guys won six. Those are incredibly close year.

429
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,920
Speaker 1: Although young Moto gotta smacked around a little bit today

430
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 1: by the as, I think they put him through four

431
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:18,399
Speaker 1: against them tonight.

432
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,000
Speaker 2: I like it. I like how that smacked around.

433
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 1: I just have a four to three.

434
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,640
Speaker 2: Lead in that game. Yamamo, though, when six innings three

435
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 2: are in runs. Yeah, so yeah, he's up to two

436
00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 2: one so now and then, I guess this is a

437
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:27,200
Speaker 2: big difference.

438
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:28,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I can't.

439
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 2: I can't find myself. I get I'm still getting a

440
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 2: little bit carried about why does cold I have to

441
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:35,840
Speaker 2: get the trouble every single inning and then have to

442
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:37,919
Speaker 2: be a magician every single inning like that. That's not

443
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 2: that fun to watch.

444
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 1: No, it's it's stressful. I think we'd be lying to

445
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:43,159
Speaker 1: you if I was like, this is exactly how I

446
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:45,200
Speaker 1: want code. I say, I'm gonna pitch every single game.

447
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,480
Speaker 1: He's making it work. I'm not gonna complain. I'm not

448
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,119
Speaker 1: gonna be like, ugh, terrible, I can't believe what I'm watching.

449
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 1: But at the same time, similar to how you would

450
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:55,720
Speaker 1: like Bret Baty to walk a little bit more, I

451
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:57,240
Speaker 1: think it's safe to say that all of us Mets

452
00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:58,719
Speaker 1: fans would like Code. I say'm gonna have a one

453
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,440
Speaker 1: two e RA, but not have three guys on base

454
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:02,320
Speaker 1: every single inning.

455
00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:04,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just again, it's the it's the stuff that's

456
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,160
Speaker 2: coming out where people like Code I sank officially back

457
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 2: lowis the IRA in baseball? That shit makes me cringe

458
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 2: because I'm like this, this IRA is a miracle right now,

459
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,639
Speaker 2: because like in this start, just in this star specifically,

460
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:15,760
Speaker 2: you know how many times he had a guy in

461
00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 2: scoring position with fewer than two outs?

462
00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 1: How many times? So like how many times total?

463
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:22,879
Speaker 2: How many innings he completed? Five innings? You guess how

464
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:23,880
Speaker 2: many innings that have I mean.

465
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:24,560
Speaker 1: Every single inning?

466
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:26,879
Speaker 2: Surely it was it was four out of the five innings,

467
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:28,560
Speaker 2: including the sixth inning when he left the game, the

468
00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:30,639
Speaker 2: second inning, then the third inning where it was second,

469
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 2: third and one out and he managed to strike out

470
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 2: ikf On five out of six pitches were ghost forks.

471
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:39,320
Speaker 2: Then that's completely ridiculous right before we're going to softball.

472
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:41,600
Speaker 2: Then again the fourth inning, again the fifth inning, then

473
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 2: he leaves in the sixth inning was second and third

474
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 2: and two ASTs before we Garrett walked in a run.

475
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,840
Speaker 2: So it's just like this is the results at the

476
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 2: end of the day are really good. Like if your

477
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:52,359
Speaker 2: box score scouting coode iisanga And again you see in

478
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,040
Speaker 2: this game the seven strikeouts were there, six hits him,

479
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:57,159
Speaker 2: I'm sure he's gathered them only two walks, Like this

480
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:58,679
Speaker 2: was a great start. Then you watch the game and

481
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 2: every single inning you're like, what's going on right now?

482
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 2: Keep Bryan Hayes a smacking triples into the gap. But

483
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:05,359
Speaker 2: then like, but then the flip side of this is

484
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 2: I thought this was actually the most encouraging swing and

485
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,680
Speaker 2: miss stuff. He hadn't any start the season by far.

486
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 2: He fore seventeen in total, eleven of those came on

487
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 2: the ghost fork. He threw forty percent ghost forks in

488
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 2: this game, as well as the highest rate of ghost

489
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 2: forks he's ever thrown a single start as a major leaguer.

490
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:21,800
Speaker 2: But then I also think he was doing that because

491
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:23,359
Speaker 2: every single lining his back was up against the wall

492
00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 2: and He's like, let me throw my pitch, which is

493
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 2: one of the five or six best pitches in all

494
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 2: of baseball. Over and over gags. I know these guys

495
00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,120
Speaker 2: will keep chasing it, keeps swinging out in the dirt,

496
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,240
Speaker 2: and this will get me out of jams. But it's

497
00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:36,680
Speaker 2: still just not really It's not a comfortable acting for Code.

498
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:38,879
Speaker 2: I sank. And this also was an interesting series for

499
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 2: the Mets for these last couple of games, especially because

500
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:43,840
Speaker 2: this was I think it was definitely the first time

501
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,159
Speaker 2: all season that Clay Holmes pitched on regular rest for

502
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,120
Speaker 2: this rest, and I also think it was the first

503
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 2: time Code I did. It might have been the second,

504
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 2: but I know for sure it was the first time

505
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:54,000
Speaker 2: Clay Holmes did. So it was interesting to me with

506
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 2: the off day and the ability to push Clay Holmes

507
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,440
Speaker 2: back a few days, that this wasn't a game where

508
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 2: a spots starther was called upon. I kind of was

509
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,359
Speaker 2: waiting for set update all week, and I thought it

510
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,719
Speaker 2: would have made sense to give Clay even two additional

511
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:08,639
Speaker 2: off days because he has been pitching deeper into games

512
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 2: and we want play homes for August September, especially more

513
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:13,879
Speaker 2: so than May and June. So I think it's I

514
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:15,680
Speaker 2: think there's going to be a conversation that gets keeps

515
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 2: getting had because of how we have some pictures do

516
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,919
Speaker 2: back from injury soon. But that was a slight surprise

517
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 2: for me.

518
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,320

540
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: Yeah no, uh, I mean Mendoza's He's been very much

541
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:31,199
Speaker 1: in control. We always make fun of all old moonface

542
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,399
Speaker 1: on S and Y for not asking any questions of

543
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:36,919
Speaker 1: substance or anything like that. But in game two we

544
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,719
Speaker 1: did talk to Mendoza. Amazing question, probably the best questions

545
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 1: he's ever asked, talking about in game strategy, what he

546
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,240
Speaker 1: likes to do with the infield, and Mendoza was answering

547
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:46,560
Speaker 1: it very candidly, which was really cool too, just straight

548
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 1: up telling him what his thoughts are, what he wants

549
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 1: to do, what the game plan is for the Mets.

550
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:52,760
Speaker 1: It depends on the batter, it depends on the picture

551
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,280
Speaker 1: of the situation. Really cool stuff to hear. It was

552
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,520
Speaker 1: a great job. I hope Steve Gelbs does more of

553
00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 1: that in the future rather than like, hey, uh, skyline Chili,

554
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 1: let's see if I ship my pants today. Like I

555
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 1: prefer if there's more of the intellectual baseball talk instead

556
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 1: of him being like the clown side Show. But hey,

557
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 1: that was really cool, and I just I do just

558
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 1: blindly trust Carlos Mendoza. Now is that.

559
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 2: Crazy for me to say? No, not at all. And

560
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,199
Speaker 2: that specific question that he asked that text me, I

561
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:20,960
Speaker 2: was like, gelps's a fire right now, because.

562
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:22,480
Speaker 1: Which is a lot for you to say?

563
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 2: It was back to back innings, that's second and third

564
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:27,560
Speaker 2: where the Pirates had for I think the first one

565
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:29,560
Speaker 2: was first and third with one out, and then it

566
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,399
Speaker 2: was second and third with one out, and with first

567
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:34,800
Speaker 2: and third, I think Mendoz, if I remember correctly, brought

568
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 2: the infield totally in and then with second and third,

569
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 2: second and third he did not that kind of bucks

570
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 2: conventional wisdom because you figure with first and third you

571
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:43,440
Speaker 2: want to keep the middle infield is back for double

572
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 2: play depth. But I believe someone faster at the plate,

573
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:47,080
Speaker 2: and that was his answer for that. But then with

574
00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 2: second theory and Dooz was like, why did you bring

575
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:50,680
Speaker 2: the infield in here? He's like, well, you know, early

576
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:52,600
Speaker 2: in the game we have a one run lead. If

577
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:54,439
Speaker 2: I bring the infield in with two guys corn position,

578
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:56,439
Speaker 2: that gets a much easier chance for two runs. Right

579
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:57,960
Speaker 2: in the one with the infield with only the one

580
00:22:57,960 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 2: guy and third no guy in second. So I was like,

581
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:01,360
Speaker 2: that was just I can't answer. And every every single

582
00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:03,399
Speaker 2: thing Mendoza does and says, I just keep getting more

583
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 2: and more and more trust in him, like echo and

584
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 2: what you just said. But still I'm curious sometimes with

585
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:10,960
Speaker 2: some of these other decisions, just like where they come down,

586
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:14,200
Speaker 2: how they come down, and what the thinking is as

587
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 2: it all relates to one another.

588
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, last thing I'll say about Game two, at least

589
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:20,560
Speaker 1: on my side, with Code I saying especially we mentioned

590
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:22,560
Speaker 1: it a couple episodes episodes ago when he made his

591
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 1: last start. Similarly, it's like we know the r numbers

592
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:27,840
Speaker 1: are good, we know that he's actually pitching. Well, I

593
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,400
Speaker 1: can't wait to see when he actually like he's locked. Yes,

594
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:31,160
Speaker 1: it's gonna be.

595
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:33,240
Speaker 2: Just yeah, And maybe this is kind of we should

596
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 2: be thinking back to more of what twenty twenty three

597
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 2: felt like, where it was really touch and go for

598
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 2: the first two months of the season, and then the

599
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 2: second everything was nice and dandy and warm and happy.

600
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:44,480
Speaker 2: He just went blazing through the entire second half. So

601
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 2: maybe maybe just Code I said, is is one of

602
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,120
Speaker 2: the thirty best pitches in baseball where he's a little

603
00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:51,000
Speaker 2: bit Yeah he's scared. Yeah, it's just being a little

604
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:52,640
Speaker 2: weird because now because it was a lady day too,

605
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:53,800
Speaker 2: we always love that. Uh.

606
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:54,200
Speaker 1: I like that.

607
00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:55,880
Speaker 2: Want to host all based in this game as well.

608
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 2: And I don't like that Francisco Endorman another error in

609
00:23:59,040 --> 00:23:59,520
Speaker 2: the ninth thinnic.

610
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, second game in a row that Francisco Lindor made

611
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:04,600
Speaker 1: an error in the ninth And obviously we're not gonna

612
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,359
Speaker 1: make this a big deal, but I would love for

613
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: that to stop. I hope you don't. Maybe no more

614
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 1: ninth inning errors. I think that would be pretty cool.

615
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:13,200
Speaker 1: Are we cool with that?

616
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:14,639
Speaker 2: That would be a nice deal to make me, you

617
00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 2: and Francisco Indoor would I'll just shake on that one together.

618
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:18,679
Speaker 1: No more ninth inning er, I'll go to the stadium,

619
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:20,119
Speaker 1: you know what, next game, I'll go to the stadium

620
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:21,919
Speaker 1: and shake his hand with him, like I'm in.

621
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 2: For that, and then do some do some fun, go

622
00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:24,239
Speaker 2: work with him.

623
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,120
Speaker 1: Yes, of course, make sure we get back out there,

624
00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 1: get him the flat gloves or whatever he needs. It

625
00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:30,240
Speaker 1: was both errors were so weird.

626
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 2: I think the one in game two Tuesday night that

627
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 2: just seemed like a slick field, and he tried to

628
00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:35,880
Speaker 2: make a throw in the run. He kind of didn't

629
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 2: have his footing. He went into the air and then

630
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,760
Speaker 2: the ball kind of sales on him. And that again,

631
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 2: I get it, like whatever, Physisical Indoors made a billion

632
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:46,000
Speaker 2: great plays. Yeah, that was just especially in a moment

633
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:48,560
Speaker 2: where Diaz felt a little bit shaky, like shaky adjacent.

634
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:50,680
Speaker 2: And you know, one guy gets on base against Das,

635
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,080
Speaker 2: he's on second, if not on third, and eventually that

636
00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:55,160
Speaker 2: second and third, and I was just like, holy shit.

637
00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 1: That's where he thrives. He was second and third. You

638
00:24:58,080 --> 00:24:58,880
Speaker 1: guys are fucked.

639
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:01,160
Speaker 2: That's in the adrenaline junkie's back. And now we've gone

640
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:03,040
Speaker 2: watch seven Islands tread and Diez hasn't given up a run,

641
00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 2: nails down every single safe. So it's it's he still

642
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 2: is like one of the best clothes in baseball, and

643
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:09,159
Speaker 2: we're proud of us that we've been on the right

644
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,199
Speaker 2: side of history with that take through and through. I

645
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,439
Speaker 2: just wish that sometime similar to this code that stuff,

646
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:15,080
Speaker 2: it would just be a little nice for the watch.

647
00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 2: It'd be a little easier to handle.

648
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:18,840
Speaker 1: It's similar to like what we talked about soda earlier

649
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:20,679
Speaker 1: in the year, or like anybody on this team was like,

650
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,960
Speaker 1: they're good, they're doing good things. What if they did perfect,

651
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:24,800
Speaker 1: amazing things.

652
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,120
Speaker 2: I think that'd be pretty fun, which I guess shame

653
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,119
Speaker 2: on us for expecting that, because that's kind of you know,

654
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 2: it's a little it's too easy the end of the

655
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:33,359
Speaker 2: day to baseball. Then this is still entertainment. It's not

656
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,920
Speaker 2: just baseball. But yeah, and then the most fun game

657
00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 2: the game that we were at Monday night. It was

658
00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:40,840
Speaker 2: bumping in the ballpark for a Monday night. We were

659
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:42,800
Speaker 2: there with my dad, some of our friends. They're like, Wow,

660
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:45,000
Speaker 2: this is an incredible crowd for a Monday where.

661
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 1: I wore my kind of fireball shirt. Yeah.

662
00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:49,359
Speaker 2: Mark has a new shirt that's just completely incredible. You

663
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:51,480
Speaker 2: should put the shirt into the episode because it's it's

664
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 2: a lights out of shirt Mark. Mark showed me this

665
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 2: shirt last week and he was like, we should use

666
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:56,679
Speaker 2: this shirt as a bit in the podcast. Really have

667
00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 2: to make like a bet or a series of bets

668
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:01,119
Speaker 2: and the loser has to wear the shirt. I was like, dude,

669
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:02,920
Speaker 2: I don't know. I think we should make a series

670
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:04,640
Speaker 2: at best for the winner gets access to that shirt

671
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:05,879
Speaker 2: because one of the cool shots I've ever seen in

672
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:06,160
Speaker 2: my life.

673
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 1: I mean, you guys are seeing it right now on

674
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 1: the screen. It's been covering my face for the last

675
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 1: like ten seconds while James was talking. It's absolute fire

676
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 1: and the real kicker. It's his pleasures on the collar.

677
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:17,159
Speaker 1: I don't know why I got it off at the

678
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:19,600
Speaker 1: MLB shop. It is not it makes me feel like

679
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 1: it's from an adult store. Honestly, Yeah, it gives.

680
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,720
Speaker 2: You some unk vibes. But it was cool walking into

681
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:27,639
Speaker 2: that ballpark because there's not often a buzz from Monday

682
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,560
Speaker 2: night game and in May against the Pirates, but just

683
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:33,400
Speaker 2: the Paul Skeens effect, you can kind of always feel

684
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:36,439
Speaker 2: that and like the place of people were sitting in

685
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:39,399
Speaker 2: their seats. First pitch, ready to go, and it was

686
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:41,760
Speaker 2: it was the ace off that I promised you guys

687
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:43,800
Speaker 2: delivered between Skeens and David Peterson.

688
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 1: Yes, Skeen's that was the first time I've seen him live.

689
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:50,840
Speaker 1: He's phenomenal. He's just ridiculously good. The fastball, the sinker,

690
00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:54,439
Speaker 1: the splinker, the curveball, the sweeper. The guy's got so

691
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 1: many tools and he just knows how to use them

692
00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 1: and he's not thrown one hundred and two anymore, But

693
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,160
Speaker 1: that seems like it's a conscious effort to not do that.

694
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:04,920
Speaker 1: They're trying not to. He's pitching more rather than just

695
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 1: being like, my stuff is gonna blow you away and

696
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,959
Speaker 1: you have no shot. And that's probably with an injury

697
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 1: scare type thing, like I don't want to get hurt.

698
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:13,280
Speaker 1: I'm assuming.

699
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, Paul Skenes was was born to be, you know,

700
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,920
Speaker 2: a deep pitch. MIxS command are the sin. But he's

701
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:20,840
Speaker 2: cursed with one hundred mile an hour flossy. He's trying

702
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:23,040
Speaker 2: to he's trying to deal with himself inside of that

703
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 2: box that he's now made. But he does it really

704
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,159
Speaker 2: fucking well. I just watching the guy pitching, I was like,

705
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:31,639
Speaker 2: in person, you're kind of taking it back by his

706
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:33,679
Speaker 2: sheer like mass and size. What.

707
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 1: By the way, the attendance numbers, I don't know how

708
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:38,159
Speaker 1: the National League does attendance again, I don't know if

709
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:41,119
Speaker 1: it's a National League versus American League, who does people

710
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:46,480
Speaker 1: in the gate? Who does tickets sold? But Monday Night actually, technically,

711
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 1: according to Baseball Reference, had a lower attendance than Tuesday Night. Huh,

712
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:55,520
Speaker 1: Monday night thirty five eighty Tuesday night and twenty six

713
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 1: either way, Just matth f Hans showing up thirty five

714
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,880
Speaker 1: ks what like eighty percent of sit field on a

715
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:04,240
Speaker 1: wet Monday Tuesday versus the shitty Pittsburgh Pirates is kind

716
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:04,639
Speaker 1: of sick.

717
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 2: Monday wasn't wet. Monday was a gorgeous Knights, so I

718
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,400
Speaker 2: picked that game to go to. But that is really sick.

719
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:10,720
Speaker 2: I did see a thing that the Mets are also

720
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:12,880
Speaker 2: up to I think fifth or sixth and average attendant

721
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:15,080
Speaker 2: so far this season, which is also.

722
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 1: Something that is not really fair to compete with because

723
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,320
Speaker 1: there are just some Sames that are simply bigger as well.

724
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, which I like the on the max stadium size

725
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:24,840
Speaker 2: percentage of stadium filled to BeO fair away. This is

726
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:27,439
Speaker 2: like the k per nine verse six strikeout rate argument

727
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 2: that we always have. But I also was impressed by

728
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:33,640
Speaker 2: how the Mets kind of set up the Skeensdor is difficult.

729
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,280
Speaker 2: I mean, Lindor started the game. He roped a single

730
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:38,440
Speaker 2: the opposite field one hundred six point eight miles an hour,

731
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:40,480
Speaker 2: and I was I was sitting in the game saiding

732
00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:43,000
Speaker 2: my dad was like, I don't remember Lindor ever hitting

733
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:44,920
Speaker 2: a ball that hard, Opo, and I looked it up.

734
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:46,840
Speaker 2: That was the second hardest hit ball he's had Opo

735
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 2: as a Met. The hardest was a groundout he had

736
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 2: twenty twenty two against the Phillies that was one hundred

737
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:53,200
Speaker 2: and seven flat. And this is one hundred and six

738
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:55,600
Speaker 2: point eight, so the second highest ball for ciscal Indoors

739
00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,160
Speaker 2: ever hit opposite field with the Mets against Paul Skeens.

740
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:01,000
Speaker 2: And we had Jeff McNeil, whoparently just is just the

741
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 2: Paul Skeans killer, and he wrote the double to tie

742
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 2: the game, and I can't it's funny that Jeff McNeil

743
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 2: would be the guy to like have Paul Skean's number.

744
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 1: But also so badly because like he's such a little pest.

745
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 1: And again me and you were talking about this at

746
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 1: the game, where like it's the Jeff McNeil hates getting

747
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:19,720
Speaker 1: out of control with Mets fans, or at least a

748
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,240
Speaker 1: certain group of Mets fans. He's a good man, he's

749
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 1: a good baseball player. The Mets are better when Jeff

750
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:26,640
Speaker 1: McNeil is playing every single day, or playing in the

751
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 1: moments that carls Windoz is using him in right now.

752
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 2: He doesn't have to play every single day. I don't

753
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:32,880
Speaker 2: need Jeff in the line because every single left team.

754
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:34,840
Speaker 2: But like, Jeff McNeil still plays a fine second base,

755
00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:36,720
Speaker 2: Jeff McNeil still puts the bat on the ball. Jeff

756
00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:40,080
Speaker 2: McNeil is a pretty good outfield. He's finding his way

757
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 2: into a handful of more power this year. Like the

758
00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:44,400
Speaker 2: bat speed's still fine. Like it's just a he's just

759
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 2: a decent baseball player. I know people like to vilify

760
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:48,720
Speaker 2: him because he doesn't have the best attitude, which I

761
00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 2: don't disagree with that all the time. But he's you

762
00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 2: could do a lot worse for Like again, like a

763
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,080
Speaker 2: you tell the infielder like a five hundred played appearance

764
00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 2: the seas guy Jef mcneally.

765
00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:59,840
Speaker 1: We got to find the middle attitude of Jeff McNeil

766
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:03,680
Speaker 1: and Luis on Helicunya, where Acunya is like the games

767
00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:05,400
Speaker 1: that are not in the majors, I don't care. And

768
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 1: people got really mad about that. Jeff McNeill's like, if

769
00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:10,280
Speaker 1: I get out, I'm gonna I'm gonna hit someone, I'm

770
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:13,080
Speaker 1: gonna scream, I'm gonna shake a baby. Find the middle

771
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 1: ground and you're like, well, it's a guy who's like

772
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:17,160
Speaker 1: a gamer. He's locked in a.

773
00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:19,120
Speaker 2: KUNI is the guy. I'm really curious as we like

774
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 2: start to get ready for the Subway series preview here

775
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,280
Speaker 2: about how he responds like the rock as crowds we're

776
00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:26,720
Speaker 2: going to see this weekend, because he's in a wicked

777
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 2: cold spot right now. I think he's like, yeah, for

778
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 2: his last twenty six or something, Yes, his OPS has

779
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,120
Speaker 2: dropped like a clean hundreds or so points in the

780
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,320
Speaker 2: last week, and he and this is all wild. He

781
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:38,840
Speaker 2: keeps playing different positions well all over the diamonds. So

782
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 2: it's just he is still there's still no hate for

783
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:43,720
Speaker 2: Louis Helecuni is still incredibly valuable player. But it is

784
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 2: a situation where it's like, all right, what just I

785
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:48,600
Speaker 2: don't know. It's a rubber meets the road moment. We're

786
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 2: like adjust they adjust to you with just they adjust

787
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:51,840
Speaker 2: to you like does the ebb and flow of young

788
00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 2: player in Major League Baseball, especially when with as wild

789
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 2: of approach as Louis and Helaicunya has. So it's I

790
00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 2: know that he is someone who rises to the occasion

791
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:01,840
Speaker 2: and rises to the kind of feeds off crowds and

792
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 2: energy and all that stuff. I'm interested to see what

793
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:06,560
Speaker 2: happens with him, what games he plays this weekend. If

794
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,280
Speaker 2: he gets to that bad against a guy that Carls Rodnic,

795
00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:10,440
Speaker 2: I think that could be a good like good, a

796
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:11,200
Speaker 2: good matchup there.

797
00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:13,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, that would be a lot of fun. I think.

798
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 1: I think thats are gonna come ready to play. But

799
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:16,760
Speaker 1: we'll talk about that again in the Subway series preview.

800
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:18,440
Speaker 1: A little bit more on this game too. I'm just

801
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 1: gonna talk about Acunya two, that crazy play where he

802
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:25,120
Speaker 1: rounded third on Pete's hard ground ball somehow ended up

803
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 1: scoring because Henry Davis with the worst attempt at blocking

804
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,600
Speaker 1: the plate I've ever seen in my life. I've never

805
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 1: seen a catcher knowingly making the choice to catch the

806
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:38,880
Speaker 1: ball behind the thing that he's supposed to stop the

807
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 1: guys from touching. I've never seen anything like that. Also,

808
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:45,080
Speaker 1: horrendous tag luis an Hellacunya if he slid feet first

809
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:47,240
Speaker 1: into the base would have been even more safe. But

810
00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:50,120
Speaker 1: I think he was even surprised at how horribly positioned

811
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:52,480
Speaker 1: Henry Davis was. I don't know what the Pirates did

812
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:54,480
Speaker 1: to this guy. This guy was such a fucking dog

813
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:57,520
Speaker 1: at Louisville in college. He got to that organization and

814
00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 1: he has been horrendously bad.

815
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:04,600
Speaker 2: Ronnie was very critical of that of that tag play too,

816
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:05,920
Speaker 2: just being like, I don't know what the deal is

817
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:07,200
Speaker 2: herey Day was just taking a page out of my

818
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:08,080
Speaker 2: book on my picking tag.

819
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 1: Yes, I seen it. What a play.

820
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 2: That was a nice play by me. But this all this,

821
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:14,720
Speaker 2: there were so many other weird things that happened in

822
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 2: this game too, Like, first of all, Andrew McCutchen just

823
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:17,680
Speaker 2: playing the outfield was funny.

824
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 1: Doesn't happened.

825
00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:20,560
Speaker 2: There was that ball that I thought pretty sure Vento's

826
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:22,880
Speaker 2: put in the gap that Mark middle Cutchon actually got

827
00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:25,000
Speaker 2: on his horse and cut off. And it's not hard

828
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:26,760
Speaker 2: to cut Vento's off from a single to a double

829
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 2: because he runs with the heaviest feet on earth. But

830
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:31,480
Speaker 2: Edrew mccutchion I saw him visibly because we were sitting

831
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,520
Speaker 2: over up the third base line, like literally laughing as

832
00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:36,000
Speaker 2: he got to that ball and the fielded. Then he

833
00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 2: was like, oh unk still got it, like the classic meme. Also,

834
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:41,680
Speaker 2: one of the strangest players I've seen all season one

835
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:43,640
Speaker 2: of this forgot about the craziest things I've done. I

836
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:45,280
Speaker 2: want to talk about David Peterson seconds. He did some

837
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:47,920
Speaker 2: good things, but he he was pretty effish in this game.

838
00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:49,240
Speaker 2: I think one of his more fishes starts in the

839
00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:51,600
Speaker 2: last month or so. Crossing does sent him out for

840
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 2: the seventh I believe he had eighty nine pitches and

841
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:55,320
Speaker 2: then he immediately lost the strikes on I think was

842
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:56,600
Speaker 2: a four or five pitch walk, and he came and

843
00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:59,720
Speaker 2: got him out. Brother in Bouteau again, who Bula keeps

844
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:01,920
Speaker 2: being the it comes in with the inherited runner, and

845
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 2: he keeps being like, not that comfortable in those situations.

846
00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:07,880
Speaker 2: But for some reason with it was Triolo I believe

847
00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 2: on second base and now we have a new rule

848
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,760
Speaker 2: baseball where you can only disengage from the rubber three

849
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,880
Speaker 2: times per play appearance. And he threw with a guy

850
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:18,480
Speaker 2: in second base two pickoffs to try and get Jared Riolo,

851
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:22,320
Speaker 2: who was taking a very long lead. Louis Helecune was

852
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:23,920
Speaker 2: on that base and they were there was one of

853
00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 2: the times they really did almost get him. But there's

854
00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:28,920
Speaker 2: one out in a tie game in the seventh inning

855
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 2: with a man of second base, and Jose Boutteau thought

856
00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 2: the pruden to come off the mound again to throw

857
00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:36,800
Speaker 2: a third pickoff attempt to try and get Jared Triolo

858
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:41,600
Speaker 2: at second in the daylight play and get intentionally balk

859
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:43,760
Speaker 2: and give him third base for free in a one

860
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:46,400
Speaker 2: run game where he eventually scored. And I believe that

861
00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:47,880
Speaker 2: now or no, he brought the infield day in the

862
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:49,160
Speaker 2: ball score of the way, and that was how they

863
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,920
Speaker 2: got the run. Where it's just like, why are you

864
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,720
Speaker 2: doing something where you give them such a blatant opportunity

865
00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 2: for a team that can't fucking score runs to get

866
00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:58,520
Speaker 2: an extra run on you late in a game.

867
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:01,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was bad. Me and you were freaking out.

868
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:04,880
Speaker 1: We were like, I can't believe my dad was losing it. Dad,

869
00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:07,160
Speaker 1: your dad. That was one of the most frustrated I've

870
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,880
Speaker 1: ever seen your dad out a game. It was just

871
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:12,040
Speaker 1: like he loves me at the games. It was. It

872
00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:14,400
Speaker 1: was a brain dead play. Even if you thought you

873
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,760
Speaker 1: had him the risk award there is like pretty insane

874
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 1: you you better fucking have him there. And the Mets

875
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,200
Speaker 1: did not get him obviously, and it cost him a run.

876
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,600
Speaker 1: It was very, very stressful, and again I think similarly,

877
00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:29,560
Speaker 1: the broadcast was scratching their head, going what in the

878
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:30,879
Speaker 1: world are we doing there?

879
00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:33,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, and luckily the offense got going the bombed ending

880
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 2: and then again the ninth inning we picked him up.

881
00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:37,279
Speaker 2: But it was just that was a moment where it's

882
00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:40,399
Speaker 2: like Who's I can't imagine whose decision that was. I'm

883
00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:42,600
Speaker 2: sure it was now Carls Mendoza like that, I don't know.

884
00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:44,400
Speaker 2: That to me feels like a guy like Boutou is

885
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 2: just like squeezing the bottle of tight really trying to

886
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:48,279
Speaker 2: make sure he doesn't give things up, like trying to

887
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:50,479
Speaker 2: be perfect, but really, man, give the run.

888
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:52,839
Speaker 1: The other thing with bhutto real quick as well, too,

889
00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 1: can't put anybody away he should really, he can't get

890
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,200
Speaker 1: a strikeout for to save his life. That slider he's

891
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:04,239
Speaker 1: relying on so so so much. And I know this

892
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 1: is me being a hypocrite because I hate rightdy rdy

893
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:08,360
Speaker 1: change ups, but I think he's got to show it

894
00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:11,000
Speaker 1: at some point, like he's throwing that slider so so

895
00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:13,480
Speaker 1: much they know it's coming. It's not a good.

896
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:16,560
Speaker 2: Pitch, No, it's not at all. I mean it's it's

897
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,200
Speaker 2: not a good pitch, but it's not like the worst

898
00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:21,560
Speaker 2: pitch for him. But it's just that that is only

899
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 2: pitch that can generate any kind of swing out of

900
00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:25,560
Speaker 2: the strike zone, like any kind of chase. So he

901
00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:27,280
Speaker 2: just kind of has to keep doing that. And that's

902
00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:30,160
Speaker 2: in that inning of relief where it wasn't it wasn't easy.

903
00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:31,959
Speaker 2: He got out of it, gave up the one herod run.

904
00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:35,080
Speaker 2: He only got one called strike and three swinging strikes,

905
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,359
Speaker 2: and all three the swing strikes were against that slider. Yeah,

906
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:39,080
Speaker 2: but did I also didn't. I didn't want that the

907
00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:41,440
Speaker 2: Sully Piers to start because Pierson was really good. It's

908
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:44,160
Speaker 2: not like again efficient, Like I said, the Pirates stacked

909
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:46,279
Speaker 2: the lineup with nine ridies because luckily O'Neil Cruz was

910
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:47,719
Speaker 2: out of lineup, who is one of the best layers

911
00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:49,160
Speaker 2: in baseball. We talked him up and he didn't play

912
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:52,600
Speaker 2: single game this series. Sorry about that, guys. But his

913
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:54,799
Speaker 2: fastball was great. He leans on that fastball against right

914
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:55,400
Speaker 2: handed Batthers.

915
00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:56,080
Speaker 1: He used it.

916
00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:58,080
Speaker 2: As a pull away pitch. I got six wings miss.

917
00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:00,400
Speaker 2: His change up is really nice too. The game with

918
00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:02,759
Speaker 2: our buddy Jake, who's a real baseball guy. He's done

919
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:04,960
Speaker 2: some pretty high level baseball work in his past. He

920
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:08,680
Speaker 2: was like, wow, that extension, that Peterson Cats, it's unbelievable, Like, dude,

921
00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:10,799
Speaker 2: we know it's he's got to be close to seven feet.

922
00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:12,520
Speaker 2: They were like just a bit over, man.

923
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:13,200
Speaker 1: It's just like it.

924
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:16,200
Speaker 2: It's fun having those conversations with friends at the ballpark.

925
00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:17,920
Speaker 2: But Peters is great and it was good like again

926
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:20,880
Speaker 2: again standing up to a guy like Paul Skeiens, putting

927
00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:22,239
Speaker 2: us in position to win the games. The best you

928
00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:24,239
Speaker 2: can ask over from a guy who keeps, who just

929
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:26,200
Speaker 2: keeps getting even more and more solid.

930
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:29,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, he keeps you in ball games. David Peterson is

931
00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:32,160
Speaker 1: the king of keeping you in the game. He loves

932
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,600
Speaker 1: giving up like two or three runs when the Mets

933
00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:36,600
Speaker 1: score like three or four. That's his favorite thing to do.

934
00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:40,279
Speaker 2: Yeah. And as this game ended, it was stressful for you.

935
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 2: I my dad. A lot of people in the ballpark

936
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:44,800
Speaker 2: were trying to at the same time stream the thirty

937
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:47,400
Speaker 2: thousand of the thirty five k there, yes, there was.

938
00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:49,359
Speaker 2: There were pockets of people in our sections. I think

939
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 2: everyone was using a slightly different streaming service to watch

940
00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:54,400
Speaker 2: the ending of the Nick Celtics Game four. And you

941
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:58,120
Speaker 2: hear yes, yes, three Bridges Brunson, just like in these

942
00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:00,200
Speaker 2: little peeps, peeps from all around stame. You're like, well,

943
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:01,960
Speaker 2: you look back his screen and it happens. I was

944
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:03,880
Speaker 2: so fixated the end of that next game that I

945
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:06,040
Speaker 2: missed the Brandon Nimo home run robbery that happened right

946
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:08,040
Speaker 2: in front of our faces and was screaming him like

947
00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:10,520
Speaker 2: oh what all right? Whatever? But it was a that

948
00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:12,440
Speaker 2: was funny for uh, that was all fun That was

949
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:13,160
Speaker 2: a funny thing happening.

950
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:14,719
Speaker 1: All the same time, Ni was getting really good at

951
00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:15,600
Speaker 1: Robin home runs.

952
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:17,799
Speaker 2: Doesn't a couple of a couple of times a year.

953
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:20,719
Speaker 1: He times it up really well and he's just he's

954
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:23,120
Speaker 1: very under control, which is nice to see because those

955
00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:26,560
Speaker 1: that was not a that wasn't like the Mike Trout

956
00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:28,560
Speaker 1: rob the home run catch that you saw in Baltimore

957
00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:30,560
Speaker 1: like ten years ago, where you're like, holy shit, how

958
00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:32,520
Speaker 1: did he ever make that play? Yeah, but it was

959
00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:34,120
Speaker 1: a play where it's like, that's still not a rude

960
00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:37,160
Speaker 1: team play by any means. It was massive. Massive, Massive

961
00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:39,399
Speaker 1: made Dead Neelle sweat a little bit, and then Dead

962
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:41,000
Speaker 1: Neelle locked in as soon as he gave up a

963
00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:43,840
Speaker 1: basically nooke to Joey Bart. But those are the players

964
00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:45,920
Speaker 1: that make the difference. We've seen Brandon would make great

965
00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:47,719
Speaker 1: plays before. It's good to see that even with his

966
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:49,879
Speaker 1: bum feet he can still go out there and still

967
00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:50,680
Speaker 1: make some plays like that.

968
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:53,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just he's just a good outfielder as bad

969
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,560
Speaker 2: as as physically. As much as he seems to break down,

970
00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:58,040
Speaker 2: he's also hitting better of late. Like he's still he's still.

971
00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:00,000
Speaker 1: Bay maybe he's not sure, just so anymore.

972
00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:02,280
Speaker 2: There you go. That's it. Yeah we need that. But uh,

973
00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:03,839
Speaker 2: this was again like then we get to the ninth

974
00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:06,160
Speaker 2: inning and you know, giving it up in the top,

975
00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 2: giving up the run, kind of the the stressful moments

976
00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:09,000
Speaker 2: there with.

977
00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:11,960
Speaker 1: Did a great job again though he really didn't do

978
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:12,960
Speaker 1: anything wrong.

979
00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:14,440
Speaker 2: No he didn't. It was just it was just the

980
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:16,439
Speaker 2: error Bolin door that kind of opened up and gave

981
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:19,319
Speaker 2: the opportunity. But then I can't gave it up in

982
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:20,960
Speaker 2: next inning, right, get it right back, dude? Did you

983
00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:22,840
Speaker 2: realize that play was not ruled in error though? And

984
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:24,160
Speaker 2: I can't it skimmed.

985
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:27,040
Speaker 1: Across the top of the base. Yeah, I didn't notice

986
00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 1: that either, because at first I saw it, I was like,

987
00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:31,759
Speaker 1: there's no way that should be a hit whatsoever to

988
00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:33,880
Speaker 1: give him the top of the base. It completely screwed

989
00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:36,440
Speaker 1: up the trajectory. It basically made it skip and gave

990
00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:38,080
Speaker 1: it a low bounce rather than the high bounce that

991
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:40,439
Speaker 1: he was expecting. We also talked about Acuna was tough

992
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:42,960
Speaker 1: play as well, which that was that was difficult one.

993
00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:45,360
Speaker 1: It seemed like he was kind of caught up in

994
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:49,000
Speaker 1: the moment, a little inexperienced third baseman play baseball felt

995
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:50,640
Speaker 1: very very fast for him in that moment.

996
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's that makes sense for someone who again

997
00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:55,600
Speaker 2: probably never really played third base in his life until

998
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:57,680
Speaker 2: a few weeks ago, so that makes good sense. Baty

999
00:38:57,719 --> 00:38:59,239
Speaker 2: also made a couple of nice plays there. Again, we

1000
00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:01,240
Speaker 2: talked about Baty up coming to really get their basement,

1001
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:03,239
Speaker 2: but nice to get to the ninth ending though in

1002
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:04,960
Speaker 2: the game that you didn't feel like you had to

1003
00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:06,480
Speaker 2: have with the game that was so winnable in the

1004
00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:07,920
Speaker 2: game that you wanted to have the home crowd was

1005
00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:10,640
Speaker 2: willing it, and then you know it was it was

1006
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:13,759
Speaker 2: Lindor reaching bases in that air or now they're a

1007
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:15,239
Speaker 2: nice hip. I saw the win, the gap that got

1008
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:16,920
Speaker 2: and doing third and Peons are just doing it. We

1009
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:18,520
Speaker 2: talked a lot about how this top of the order

1010
00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:20,520
Speaker 2: is so good that they should be able to single

1011
00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:22,480
Speaker 2: handedly win us a few games. I feel like, off

1012
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:23,719
Speaker 2: the top of my head they can count four or

1013
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:25,680
Speaker 2: five games. They kind of have done that this year.

1014
00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:28,160
Speaker 2: So it's nice that these three, who are i think,

1015
00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:29,960
Speaker 2: i'll say to finally the second best top three of

1016
00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:31,879
Speaker 2: an order and all of baseball right now they can

1017
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:33,520
Speaker 2: just kind of be like, all right, we're gonna be better,

1018
00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:35,040
Speaker 2: We're gonna win a game. We'll see guys tomorrow.

1019
00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:37,920
Speaker 1: And that's still with Soto not even clicking yet, yeah,

1020
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:41,400
Speaker 1: which is kind of crazy. All all, it was a

1021
00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:43,839
Speaker 1: good series. We're not gonna explain. We will never we

1022
00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:45,919
Speaker 1: take two of three from every team that we played.

1023
00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:47,600
Speaker 1: The rest of the season, the Mets are making the.

1024
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:49,040
Speaker 2: Playoffs best team of all time.

1025
00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:52,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're winning the history by by twelve games. We're

1026
00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:54,560
Speaker 1: going to be okay. Would a sweep have been better?

1027
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:57,840
Speaker 1: Of course it didn't happen. Not going to ruin our vibes,

1028
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:01,239
Speaker 1: especially going into the Subway Series. We've got the off day,

1029
00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:04,160
Speaker 1: we've got the Subway Series starting on Friday, and I

1030
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:05,960
Speaker 1: want blood. I want to kill the Yankees.

1031
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:09,600
Speaker 2: I want blood, but I also I want I just

1032
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:11,120
Speaker 2: want everyone to be aware of these are just three

1033
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:13,680
Speaker 2: baseball games. And that's also the other like no big deal,

1034
00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:15,640
Speaker 2: Like I know the Yankee fans have this circle. This

1035
00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 2: is this is the super Bowl for these guys because

1036
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:19,600
Speaker 2: they don't really have anything else in their lives anymore.

1037
00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:22,759
Speaker 2: I know that k k Ki mickp he's bit. He

1038
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,560
Speaker 2: said that he accused the Mets of giving one Sodo

1039
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:27,080
Speaker 2: an off day in the rain against the left. You

1040
00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:28,560
Speaker 2: and he has taken off this year so he could

1041
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:30,440
Speaker 2: have a mental health day before. It's going to be

1042
00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:31,879
Speaker 2: the hardest series of his light. And the guy that's

1043
00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:33,759
Speaker 2: played the multiple world series.

1044
00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:35,799
Speaker 1: Already tip your cap on that one. That's that's just

1045
00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:37,040
Speaker 1: that's excellent bait.

1046
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:38,439
Speaker 2: Oh, it's incredible baiting.

1047
00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:40,799
Speaker 1: It's like and I also but also is it bait

1048
00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:43,759
Speaker 1: or is he serious because he's I mean, it's it's

1049
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:46,200
Speaker 1: it's a situation for there, there's a bunch of there's

1050
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:47,960
Speaker 1: a couple of Yankee crits out there and he's probably

1051
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:49,960
Speaker 1: the most egregious at the moment where they know that

1052
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,120
Speaker 1: the only thing they have to keep the lights on

1053
00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:55,040
Speaker 1: right now is to talk about one Soo in the metss.

1054
00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:56,600
Speaker 1: That's kind of the only that's kind of the most

1055
00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:59,279
Speaker 1: exciting thing that's happening and for them this year, most

1056
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:01,680
Speaker 1: which is for the Yankees, not the guy hitting four hundred,

1057
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:03,719
Speaker 1: who's having one of the greatest stretches of the right

1058
00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:05,960
Speaker 1: handed hitters ever had. It's got to focus on wan

1059
00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:06,840
Speaker 1: So too in the Mets.

1060
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:08,239
Speaker 2: And that's what I was about to say. They kind

1061
00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:10,719
Speaker 2: of lead into this Yankee preview the fact that this

1062
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:14,960
Speaker 2: Yankee team got a death blow during spring training, losing Garatkol,

1063
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:18,080
Speaker 2: losing their as kind of losing the lightning rode of

1064
00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:20,480
Speaker 2: what was going to be their World Series aspirations in

1065
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:23,879
Speaker 2: complete the dog shit American League. The team is having

1066
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:25,879
Speaker 2: a very exciting start to this season. I would say

1067
00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:27,480
Speaker 2: a lot of the players in their team are playing

1068
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:30,839
Speaker 2: better than expected, some significantly better than expected. I got

1069
00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:32,239
Speaker 2: the pitching matchups here for you in a little bit,

1070
00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:34,080
Speaker 2: but I think the interest this Yankee team comes from

1071
00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:36,360
Speaker 2: the top of their lineup. But again going back to

1072
00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:39,919
Speaker 2: the pitching lineups. Pitching matchups, I do have to say

1073
00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:42,719
Speaker 2: a couple of a sauce this series. I might even

1074
00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:45,320
Speaker 2: go as far to a say borderline three a saus

1075
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 2: We have here a couple of good rotations Friday Night,

1076
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:50,320
Speaker 2: all eyes are going to be on this while the

1077
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:52,560
Speaker 2: Knicks are playing fucking Game six the same time, which

1078
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:55,160
Speaker 2: just makes me want to I don't even know a good.

1079
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:58,160
Speaker 1: Thing with this. Mets win, Knicks win. That's how this works.

1080
00:41:58,200 --> 00:41:59,839
Speaker 1: When the Knicks win, the Mets win. When the Mets win,

1081
00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:00,440
Speaker 1: the Nicks one.

1082
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:03,040
Speaker 2: Sure, So that's kind of also a lot to deal

1083
00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:06,080
Speaker 2: with think about them both losing. But so Friday night

1084
00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:10,120
Speaker 2: a bit of an asof Tyler mcgillver his Carlos Rodan

1085
00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:12,239
Speaker 2: sil versus.

1086
00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:15,920
Speaker 1: Ya Carls nice guy, really good guys pitch out for

1087
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:17,160
Speaker 1: stake one time he's.

1088
00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:20,279
Speaker 2: Pitching really well. Saturday afternoon at one o'clock mattin a

1089
00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:25,280
Speaker 2: Griffin Canning versus Clark Schmidt. And then Sunday night Baseball

1090
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:32,000
Speaker 2: Eyes of the Nation, David Peterson versus Max Freed. We've

1091
00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:33,759
Speaker 2: seen that matchup so many times when he was on

1092
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,520
Speaker 2: the Braves, so many times. I'm not excited to face

1093
00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:40,600
Speaker 2: Max Freed again. But Carlos Rodon's having a I'll even

1094
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:42,360
Speaker 2: go as far to say it's very good season. I

1095
00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:45,279
Speaker 2: think that he's the season. I think he's respectfully shut

1096
00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:47,160
Speaker 2: a lot of Yankee fans up, who for some reason

1097
00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:48,840
Speaker 2: hated the guy after he would.

1098
00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:52,560
Speaker 1: Have much that when they signed him a couple off

1099
00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:55,600
Speaker 1: seasons ago, and I tweeted out positively about him, granted

1100
00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:57,319
Speaker 1: night that said I think he's gonna win a cy

1101
00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:58,919
Speaker 1: Young as a Yankee, which might have been a little

1102
00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:01,200
Speaker 1: bit crazy, but they were like, you're an idiot. You

1103
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:02,600
Speaker 1: know what you're talking about, and they love going back

1104
00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:04,520
Speaker 1: to that tweet. I'm like, hey, dummies, I'm saying a

1105
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:06,840
Speaker 1: guy you signed is good. Why are you mad at me?

1106
00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:09,839
Speaker 1: I don't understand. And I also I supported the free

1107
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:11,520
Speaker 1: signing too. I was a big like this is a

1108
00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:12,240
Speaker 1: great move.

1109
00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:15,120
Speaker 2: And carlser Down's is very good. Carls Aron's done some

1110
00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:17,279
Speaker 2: cool things this year where he's at. The Yankees have

1111
00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:19,360
Speaker 2: been kind of lauded in the past for their ability

1112
00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:21,560
Speaker 2: to like help guys out, like fine tune some pitches.

1113
00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:23,960
Speaker 2: I know that we have their old sins a pitcher,

1114
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:25,839
Speaker 2: coach Dessi, Joschelle. He's probably helps a lot of our guys,

1115
00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:27,440
Speaker 2: helps new pitches. But it seems like the Yankees might

1116
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:30,200
Speaker 2: still have that skill internally because carlsler Down this year

1117
00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:32,319
Speaker 2: has it's like the bestest change up has ever looked.

1118
00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:34,800
Speaker 2: He's very comfortable that gets right handed batters. Also, he

1119
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:37,640
Speaker 2: brought his sinker back from the dead. He hasn't meaningfully

1120
00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:40,640
Speaker 2: used that pitch since twenty eighteen. That's like three full

1121
00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:43,640
Speaker 2: arm surgeries to go for Carlos Roddan, like literally a

1122
00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:45,320
Speaker 2: lifetime ago for the guy. And now he's bringing that

1123
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:47,080
Speaker 2: pitch back and using it like a good bit, like

1124
00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 2: fifteen twenty percent of time gets left handed batters. Like,

1125
00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:51,400
Speaker 2: it's just he's a solid pitcher. He's a hard guy

1126
00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:52,800
Speaker 2: square up. He has a lot of the weapons. A

1127
00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:55,520
Speaker 2: slider is still disgusting. The fastball vloss hes still up

1128
00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:57,160
Speaker 2: around ninety four to ninety five, which from a left

1129
00:43:57,200 --> 00:43:58,920
Speaker 2: he's one of the top of the entire league. Like,

1130
00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:01,759
Speaker 2: he's fucking good. Clarksman has not been that good so far,

1131
00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:03,200
Speaker 2: but I think we also trust him as like a

1132
00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:06,000
Speaker 2: mid rotation guy. And Max Freed right now looks like

1133
00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:08,840
Speaker 2: one of the best pitches in baseball. Yeah, he's basically

1134
00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:11,120
Speaker 2: the al Cy Young front runner along with Terrek Schoolball,

1135
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:14,839
Speaker 2: because the guy is so fucking light, savage crazy. Thera

1136
00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:16,480
Speaker 2: is basically under one at the moment.

1137
00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:19,520
Speaker 1: I think he's got the low cra in Major League Baseball.

1138
00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:22,240
Speaker 1: He's a he looks like a full freak of nature

1139
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:23,600
Speaker 1: right now. It's a good thing we're not a The

1140
00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:24,400
Speaker 1: e RA podcast.

1141
00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:25,880
Speaker 2: Good thing we're not on the RA podcast. But I

1142
00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:28,520
Speaker 2: believe Max Friedzer says low era every single year and

1143
00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:30,200
Speaker 2: he never really strikes the many guys out, but he

1144
00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:33,000
Speaker 2: never ever ever gives up any runs. And this is

1145
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:35,600
Speaker 2: a podcast that definitely respects Max freed enough.

1146
00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:36,600
Speaker 1: We respect him enough.

1147
00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:38,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, But then you get to the Yankee lineup, and

1148
00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:41,920
Speaker 2: I gotta say, this Yankee lineup is I think one

1149
00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:44,360
Speaker 2: of the most fascinating in baseball. This year's crazy.

1150
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:47,560
Speaker 1: I can talk about all these guys for fifteen minutes

1151
00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:50,040
Speaker 1: about what I like that they're doing and why. I

1152
00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:52,360
Speaker 1: also don't think it's gonna make any sense once we

1153
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:54,920
Speaker 1: get to July. Some of it, I think will, but like,

1154
00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:56,799
Speaker 1: I mean, just yeah, you can't. It's like, legally, we're

1155
00:44:56,840 --> 00:44:57,640
Speaker 1: legally obligates to.

1156
00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:00,600
Speaker 2: Begin with Aaron Judge, like he's right now having one

1157
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:02,120
Speaker 2: of the best starts to a season we've ever seen

1158
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:02,640
Speaker 2: in our lives.

1159
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:04,719
Speaker 1: God run, you guys.

1160
00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:07,239
Speaker 2: Remember two years ago when Luise Rice had a four

1161
00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:09,279
Speaker 2: hundred batting average, in middle of May, and everyone was

1162
00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 2: writing their puff pieces and they think pieces about how

1163
00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:13,480
Speaker 2: Louise Rise could this be the guy that be four

1164
00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:17,680
Speaker 2: hundred MVP candidate. Aaron Judge is the higher batting average

1165
00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:19,960
Speaker 2: and May fifteenth this season. Louis Rise to that May

1166
00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:20,920
Speaker 2: fifteen two seasons ago.

1167
00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:24,360
Speaker 1: And Aaron Judge has the most home runs, RBIs, hits,

1168
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:27,799
Speaker 1: slugging on base percent and joh, he's the best player

1169
00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:30,080
Speaker 1: in Major League Baseball. Guys, just that simple.

1170
00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:32,759
Speaker 2: I'll say this, Aaron, you thought Louise Rice had chance

1171
00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:35,120
Speaker 2: had four hundred. If anybody in baseball chance hit four hundred,

1172
00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:36,880
Speaker 2: it's actually Aaron j It's literally him.

1173
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:39,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, here's what I'll say something keep an eyeut for.

1174
00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:42,239
Speaker 1: Remember when the Mets played the Yankees last year, the

1175
00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:45,160
Speaker 1: Mets did not pitch to Want Soto. They did not

1176
00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:47,839
Speaker 1: pitch to Aaron Judge unless they had a big lead

1177
00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:49,960
Speaker 1: or there was no chance that they could do significant

1178
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:53,360
Speaker 1: damage to them. I'm really interested to see, shout Jake Deakman.

1179
00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:55,680
Speaker 1: Shout Jake Deakman. I'm really interested to see if the

1180
00:45:55,760 --> 00:45:58,960
Speaker 1: Mets give Aaron Judge anything to hit. If there's guys

1181
00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:01,400
Speaker 1: on base, it's different, but with a base open. I

1182
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:03,719
Speaker 1: wouldn't be shocked if the Mets just throw up the

1183
00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:05,560
Speaker 1: four and throw them to the first base every single time.

1184
00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:07,799
Speaker 1: This lineup, of course for the Yankees is still hitting

1185
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:10,120
Speaker 1: behind him as well. They're playing really good baseball right now.

1186
00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:13,160
Speaker 1: But we saw that that was the Mets game plan

1187
00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:15,560
Speaker 1: last year. We saw Found Territory even put out a

1188
00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:18,080
Speaker 1: video recently about there, like why is anyone pitching to him?

1189
00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:20,440
Speaker 1: I don't understand why you're pitching to Aaron Judge. Let

1190
00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:22,920
Speaker 1: everybody else beat you. These other guys are hitting now,

1191
00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:25,480
Speaker 1: that's the one difference in this equation right now.

1192
00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:27,920
Speaker 2: Yes, and the other guy's mainly being the two guys

1193
00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:29,880
Speaker 2: who routinely are hitting ahead of Aaron Judge, and that

1194
00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:32,759
Speaker 2: is somehow. Trent Grisham, who is a Mets killer, who

1195
00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:35,640
Speaker 2: I'm really scared of this series and a favorite of mine,

1196
00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:38,160
Speaker 2: someone i've been like getting into a wow. We saw

1197
00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:40,600
Speaker 2: him two years ago in the Double A semi finals.

1198
00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:44,680
Speaker 2: Ben Rice ben Ren Rice Ben Rose is actually a revelation,

1199
00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:46,600
Speaker 2: Like I'm fully in on the Ben Rice train. I've

1200
00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:48,520
Speaker 2: shot him at so many times my Fantasy Baseball channel

1201
00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:49,880
Speaker 2: this year, especially the Firs tw weeks of the year.

1202
00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:51,360
Speaker 2: I was like, guys, this is not a joke, Like

1203
00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:53,160
Speaker 2: pick him up right now. Of all the hitters in

1204
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:56,080
Speaker 2: baseball last season, he was the most unlucky in terms

1205
00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:57,880
Speaker 2: of the difference between his WOABA and his ex wOBA,

1206
00:46:58,120 --> 00:46:59,880
Speaker 2: so the quality of his contact verst as the actually

1207
00:46:59,880 --> 00:47:02,200
Speaker 2: we alts he got. He had the biggest chasm of

1208
00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:05,360
Speaker 2: luck there. He's awesome. He hits the ball hard, he

1209
00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:07,360
Speaker 2: lifts the ball, he doesn't swing at bad pitches, he

1210
00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:10,200
Speaker 2: takes his walks like he's incredible. And Trent Grisham, I

1211
00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:11,839
Speaker 2: don't know where the fuck this came from. Getting host

1212
00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:14,000
Speaker 2: with you. I mean, it's I think it's a little

1213
00:47:14,080 --> 00:47:14,760
Speaker 2: dousand ops.

1214
00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:16,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's a little bit of Trent Grisham

1215
00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:18,640
Speaker 1: has been slided over the last few years. He is

1216
00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:21,800
Speaker 1: technically in his physical prime. The dude's only twenty eight sneaky.

1217
00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:24,360
Speaker 1: Twenty eight sneaky. The Trent Grisham trade right now for

1218
00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:26,480
Speaker 1: the New York Yankees if you think about it, Uh,

1219
00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:28,760
Speaker 1: he was good. He's been good in the past before,

1220
00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:31,479
Speaker 1: not this good. But I also think when Aaron Judges

1221
00:47:31,680 --> 00:47:34,000
Speaker 1: is behind you, and when you get to play Yankee Stadium,

1222
00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:35,520
Speaker 1: it also helps a lot too.

1223
00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:37,839
Speaker 2: And the big thing that was always good about Trent

1224
00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:39,319
Speaker 2: Grisham will there were two things. One, he was always

1225
00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:41,520
Speaker 2: a good center field defender. Yes, Yankees need that desperately.

1226
00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:43,359
Speaker 2: It's how he's got himself in the lineup every single day.

1227
00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:45,960
Speaker 2: And two, for all the warts that Trent Grisham had,

1228
00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:48,000
Speaker 2: like the ins and outs of his game, he never

1229
00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:50,160
Speaker 2: really swung a pitches out of the strike zone, and

1230
00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:51,960
Speaker 2: right now he's still doing that. He's now swinging pitches

1231
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:53,720
Speaker 2: at of his strike zone. He's finding ways to barrel

1232
00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:55,480
Speaker 2: up the pitches in the strike zone. So that's so

1233
00:47:55,560 --> 00:47:58,480
Speaker 2: usually the way to move yourself forward as a hit there,

1234
00:47:58,520 --> 00:48:02,080
Speaker 2: and Trent Grisham has done that. Oh, Tyler Ferguson, you

1235
00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:06,719
Speaker 2: gave up five runs in relief. Oh you gotta be

1236
00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:09,520
Speaker 2: kidding me, Dude, give him that one.

1237
00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:10,919
Speaker 1: Hurt this dude.

1238
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:14,400
Speaker 2: Today I had Aaron Nola, Hunter Dobbins Bailey over My

1239
00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:17,200
Speaker 2: era is gonna be ten today I'm streaming Tyler Ferguson

1240
00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:18,640
Speaker 2: try and get some goddamn holds.

1241
00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:21,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I had Nola and Jordan Hicks today who

1242
00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:23,040
Speaker 1: also got chilled.

1243
00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:26,200
Speaker 2: Oh all right, Yeah, Trek is still playing well, and

1244
00:48:26,239 --> 00:48:27,879
Speaker 2: then after that, like the two guys who I think

1245
00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:30,040
Speaker 2: people on the internet love to hate, but they're just

1246
00:48:30,080 --> 00:48:32,600
Speaker 2: playing decent ball. Can't really hate them, Anthony Volpey and

1247
00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:35,600
Speaker 2: Jason Demingez your favorite mister Singles, I mean the Singles

1248
00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:37,600
Speaker 2: having a good season. He's STI playing good shortstop defense.

1249
00:48:37,640 --> 00:48:41,040
Speaker 2: He's like, yeah, he's not. He Anthony Volpi he's the

1250
00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:44,239
Speaker 2: famous last words whenever he's hitting and making contact and

1251
00:48:44,239 --> 00:48:45,880
Speaker 2: I having for power when everything for power he's not

1252
00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:48,200
Speaker 2: making contact. He seems to have two very different swings

1253
00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:49,880
Speaker 2: and very different approaches they come to the plate with,

1254
00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:51,959
Speaker 2: and you can't really ever find a way to blend

1255
00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:54,000
Speaker 2: them all actually be like the true very good player

1256
00:48:54,080 --> 00:48:56,400
Speaker 2: that Yankee fans still hope he will become. But it's

1257
00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:58,440
Speaker 2: still what he does like half and half of each,

1258
00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:00,040
Speaker 2: like Jackal and Hyde, Like he still winds up a

1259
00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:01,279
Speaker 2: pretty good player at the end of the day.

1260
00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:04,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's uh, he's someone who when it looked when

1261
00:49:04,160 --> 00:49:07,000
Speaker 1: he's not going right, he's like unplayable at the plate.

1262
00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:08,920
Speaker 1: But when it's going right, you're like, damn it, how

1263
00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:10,920
Speaker 1: does this guy keep doing it? Like he gets some

1264
00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:13,480
Speaker 1: of the craziest hits and home runs that I've seen

1265
00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:15,560
Speaker 1: in a while. But he makes it work. He's got

1266
00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:17,880
Speaker 1: a basically one twenty WRC plus I think on the

1267
00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:23,160
Speaker 1: season right now. Paul Goldschmidt, another guy who awesome owns

1268
00:49:23,200 --> 00:49:26,359
Speaker 1: the Mets historically loves playing against the Mets, was written off,

1269
00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:29,680
Speaker 1: was written off. But he's doing that weird thing where

1270
00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:33,080
Speaker 1: I don't necessarily know how actually sustainable it is for

1271
00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:34,320
Speaker 1: him to play at this level.

1272
00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:36,680
Speaker 2: Well, it's not sustainable. Paul Goldschman's not gonna have a

1273
00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:38,440
Speaker 2: three to fifty batting average, Like there's no fucking way

1274
00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:39,360
Speaker 2: that happens, of course.

1275
00:49:39,680 --> 00:49:42,960
Speaker 1: Like his bat speed is down good again, but it's

1276
00:49:43,000 --> 00:49:46,560
Speaker 1: down good, still fine, still fine, he's completely given up

1277
00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:48,080
Speaker 1: like hitting for power though, like not.

1278
00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:50,080
Speaker 2: Doing his beat. Speed's not down, it's the exact same

1279
00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:50,879
Speaker 2: one was last year seventy.

1280
00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:53,040
Speaker 1: He boosted it up that at one point it was

1281
00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:54,480
Speaker 1: down in the season, Yes.

1282
00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:56,560
Speaker 2: Exact same two years. It's even actually faster than it

1283
00:49:56,640 --> 00:49:58,000
Speaker 2: was two years ago. On twenty twenty three.

1284
00:49:58,160 --> 00:50:01,080
Speaker 1: We've seen him the tears as the season goes on.

1285
00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:03,000
Speaker 1: Unfortunately we're playing him in May, so he's in his

1286
00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:03,719
Speaker 1: prime right now.

1287
00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:06,480
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I think Paul Golschman will be a fine

1288
00:50:06,520 --> 00:50:08,239
Speaker 2: baseball player for this season, I don't think. I think

1289
00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:09,319
Speaker 2: by the end of the year he winds up at

1290
00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:11,520
Speaker 2: seven fifty oh ps and two sixty five average. Yeah,

1291
00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:13,520
Speaker 2: which you told the Yankee fan that in January was

1292
00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:14,960
Speaker 2: signed up for it in a hartbet, Like he's still

1293
00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:17,120
Speaker 2: maybe not them, but like I think everyone else in

1294
00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:19,960
Speaker 2: baseball seventy five, I mean, yeah, someone Yank, you're talking

1295
00:50:19,960 --> 00:50:22,120
Speaker 2: about Honnie Miles, you know, Yeah, it's true Yankee fan

1296
00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:23,839
Speaker 2: knew who knew they were talking about, which is probably

1297
00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:25,640
Speaker 2: like one percent of them. But that's that's still good.

1298
00:50:25,680 --> 00:50:26,960
Speaker 2: And then you get to the Yankee bullpen. This is

1299
00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:30,000
Speaker 2: where things actually get all interesting because you guys remember

1300
00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:31,919
Speaker 2: that they made a huge trade in the offseason, mark

1301
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:34,719
Speaker 2: adopted as one of the biggest ripoffs like ever history

1302
00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:37,800
Speaker 2: baseball is a trade. Devin Williams, close of the Brewers

1303
00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:39,640
Speaker 2: who we all remember he allowed us to go to

1304
00:50:39,719 --> 00:50:43,319
Speaker 2: the NLDS. We thank him for that. But he has

1305
00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:47,000
Speaker 2: been worse than he usually has been his career to

1306
00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:47,399
Speaker 2: this point.

1307
00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:50,160
Speaker 1: Is how I'll say that, Da though he definitely has

1308
00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:53,439
Speaker 1: been worse than he usually has been to this point

1309
00:50:53,600 --> 00:50:57,080
Speaker 1: in his career. He uh, it's been a little shaky.

1310
00:50:57,080 --> 00:50:59,239
Speaker 1: I'll tell you this though, What if I told you

1311
00:50:59,840 --> 00:51:02,800
Speaker 1: that since May fifth, he's lowered as R by almost

1312
00:51:03,480 --> 00:51:04,240
Speaker 1: two full runs.

1313
00:51:04,719 --> 00:51:06,399
Speaker 2: That's awesome. And that's kind of like how this week

1314
00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:09,240
Speaker 2: alone d Neil Nunia has lowered his RA by thirty runs.

1315
00:51:09,400 --> 00:51:11,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, I imagine that sounds like guys who are pitching

1316
00:51:11,760 --> 00:51:12,319
Speaker 1: on the up and up.

1317
00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:14,400
Speaker 2: Those are guys who are pitching well right now, but

1318
00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:17,520
Speaker 2: then past him. The Yankees did this thing this offseason,

1319
00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:20,239
Speaker 2: which sometimes I think. I think the Yankees get really

1320
00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:23,239
Speaker 2: obsessed with granular shit, where for some reason, if you

1321
00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:25,000
Speaker 2: looked up and down baseball right now and you're like,

1322
00:51:25,120 --> 00:51:28,120
Speaker 2: you have to find me the five right handed relievers

1323
00:51:28,160 --> 00:51:30,319
Speaker 2: with the best change ups in the league, I think

1324
00:51:30,320 --> 00:51:31,920
Speaker 2: they're all in the Yankee bullpen. I don't know how

1325
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:34,880
Speaker 2: or why that happened, Williams. I can't believe it's an

1326
00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:37,759
Speaker 2: accident because Devin Williams, it's Luke Weavers, Fernando Cruz is

1327
00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:39,680
Speaker 2: Mark let the junior, and it's probably Ian Hamilton with

1328
00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:42,319
Speaker 2: the conveo. Like those are probably as far as right

1329
00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:45,200
Speaker 2: handed pitcher right handed reliever change ups. I'd be like Yeah,

1330
00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:47,839
Speaker 2: those are the guys I'm looking out for. For some reason,

1331
00:51:47,880 --> 00:51:49,040
Speaker 2: they're all in the same ballplay and they're all on

1332
00:51:49,040 --> 00:51:51,080
Speaker 2: the Yankees. Like, I don't know how that happened, But

1333
00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:53,279
Speaker 2: Fernando Cruz has a crazy change up. Ian Hamilton has

1334
00:51:53,320 --> 00:51:55,000
Speaker 2: a crazy one. He has not gotten the best results.

1335
00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:57,640
Speaker 2: Luke Weavers still looks like the relief ace that he

1336
00:51:57,760 --> 00:52:00,360
Speaker 2: became last season. He has an amazing change up, always

1337
00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:03,239
Speaker 2: has like they have a It's a super interesting mix

1338
00:52:03,320 --> 00:52:07,239
Speaker 2: of guys back there and some that I don't I think.

1339
00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:09,720
Speaker 2: I think it's gonna be a bit of a chaos series.

1340
00:52:09,760 --> 00:52:11,840
Speaker 2: I think the Yankees play it's always a chaos series.

1341
00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:14,280
Speaker 2: These are two pretty good lineups, and at Yankee Stadium

1342
00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:17,920
Speaker 2: and Yankee Stadium the Arcade Stadium, it's going to be fun.

1343
00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:21,520
Speaker 1: I'm you mentioned you're interest to see how Acunya handles.

1344
00:52:21,600 --> 00:52:23,680
Speaker 1: I'm really interested to see what goes on with Wan Soda.

1345
00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:27,760
Speaker 2: I'm not all I think. Really, I think it's gonna

1346
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:29,200
Speaker 2: be the same as it's always has been.

1347
00:52:29,360 --> 00:52:32,000
Speaker 1: I'm interested to see if he like gets more juiced

1348
00:52:32,040 --> 00:52:34,000
Speaker 1: up and he like goes nuclear. I'm interested to see

1349
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:35,560
Speaker 1: if he expands the strikes on a little bit more

1350
00:52:35,640 --> 00:52:38,000
Speaker 1: like this is something that us as Mets fans have

1351
00:52:38,120 --> 00:52:40,239
Speaker 1: not got to experience it with Wan Soda, which is

1352
00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:44,320
Speaker 1: like a a true like we're used to being the

1353
00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:46,239
Speaker 1: fans that boo him, and when we boot him, he

1354
00:52:46,320 --> 00:52:49,319
Speaker 1: shipped down our throats and was like, how about put

1355
00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:51,080
Speaker 1: it on the shade bridge. I'm going to see what

1356
00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:53,720
Speaker 1: happens now when he's on our side and he's getting booted.

1357
00:52:53,760 --> 00:52:56,480
Speaker 1: We've never really seen that for almost any of our

1358
00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:57,239
Speaker 1: players ever.

1359
00:52:58,440 --> 00:52:59,759
Speaker 2: No, I mean, I don't think that the Mets have

1360
00:52:59,800 --> 00:53:01,600
Speaker 2: had I mean, I think people hate the Mets like

1361
00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:03,640
Speaker 2: people hate pe Alonzo, but it's not really warranted.

1362
00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:06,320
Speaker 1: Those people are like the people who hate Pete Alonzo

1363
00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:09,400
Speaker 1: are exactly what they think Pete is, which is corny

1364
00:53:09,719 --> 00:53:12,279
Speaker 1: when you actually realized that Pete's like the fucking man,

1365
00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:14,880
Speaker 1: He's just such a he's such a like dumb idiot.

1366
00:53:14,920 --> 00:53:16,399
Speaker 1: I love him. I love him so much.

1367
00:53:16,960 --> 00:53:18,880
Speaker 2: I think it's Philly fans the one that are the

1368
00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:21,480
Speaker 2: ones that really hate Pete. I guess Brewers fans probably

1369
00:53:21,480 --> 00:53:22,200
Speaker 2: actually should be the one.

1370
00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:24,680
Speaker 1: Braves fans too because of the Bryce Elder stuff, even

1371
00:53:24,680 --> 00:53:25,359
Speaker 1: though he was right.

1372
00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:30,560
Speaker 2: Another good game today actually impossible, but he's four five

1373
00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:33,600
Speaker 2: E area this year. It's crazy. Probably Griffin Canning in

1374
00:53:33,640 --> 00:53:37,799
Speaker 2: that spot. But I'm just I maybe maybe this does

1375
00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:40,319
Speaker 2: just like shake what so the needs to shake loose loose?

1376
00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:41,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like maybe this.

1377
00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:43,880
Speaker 2: Actually finally gets that little gets it gets over that

1378
00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:45,200
Speaker 2: last hump, spill out the shuffle.

1379
00:53:45,280 --> 00:53:46,800
Speaker 1: You think, is this when he pulls it out? Is

1380
00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:47,719
Speaker 1: what he's been waiting for?

1381
00:53:48,320 --> 00:53:50,279
Speaker 2: I think he might. I think that ro Don's an

1382
00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:51,839
Speaker 2: interesting matchup for him just because he has a lot

1383
00:53:51,880 --> 00:53:53,400
Speaker 2: of stuff that he use against the left eat and

1384
00:53:55,360 --> 00:53:57,240
Speaker 2: Radan will come up and he's not scared throw fastballs

1385
00:53:57,239 --> 00:53:59,279
Speaker 2: into the lefties, but he's also he will not throw

1386
00:53:59,320 --> 00:54:01,480
Speaker 2: them any pitches in the strike zone. Yes, big part

1387
00:54:01,480 --> 00:54:03,200
Speaker 2: of rod Don's game is the chase, and that's something

1388
00:54:03,239 --> 00:54:04,520
Speaker 2: I wants. So it does better than anybody else in

1389
00:54:04,520 --> 00:54:06,480
Speaker 2: the league. So I'm curious how that works. I'm curious

1390
00:54:07,040 --> 00:54:09,200
Speaker 2: if we get a moment between Judge and so though

1391
00:54:09,239 --> 00:54:11,319
Speaker 2: before the game, because things seemed really awkward for them

1392
00:54:11,320 --> 00:54:14,799
Speaker 2: when things edged last year. Like, I'm super curious. There's

1393
00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:16,279
Speaker 2: going to be a lot of hoopla and a lot

1394
00:54:16,360 --> 00:54:19,280
Speaker 2: of fanfare around these games, probably more than there should

1395
00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:22,040
Speaker 2: be but this is it's Mets Yankees, and this is

1396
00:54:22,600 --> 00:54:25,279
Speaker 2: the first time that there is actually true two side

1397
00:54:25,320 --> 00:54:26,600
Speaker 2: animosity in this series.

1398
00:54:27,360 --> 00:54:28,000
Speaker 1: On a juice.

1399
00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:30,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a ton of juice. And I think this

1400
00:54:30,719 --> 00:54:32,880
Speaker 2: is I think this is the first time that a

1401
00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:34,759
Speaker 2: Yankee fan would ever openly tell you that they hate

1402
00:54:34,760 --> 00:54:36,680
Speaker 2: the Mets. I don't think it's ever happened before.

1403
00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:38,800
Speaker 1: I think that they would be I think warranted to

1404
00:54:38,840 --> 00:54:40,360
Speaker 1: hate them. We're in the past. It's like, that's like

1405
00:54:40,520 --> 00:54:42,840
Speaker 1: you're punching down. Now it's like, oh, I get it.

1406
00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:44,680
Speaker 2: Well now, yeah we took their lunch, so now we

1407
00:54:44,719 --> 00:54:46,120
Speaker 2: took their lunch money. So now it's like they probably

1408
00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:48,520
Speaker 2: should hate us. Like so, I'm curious as to how

1409
00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:51,000
Speaker 2: I'm a little bit worried for Mets fans in the ballpark.

1410
00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:53,720
Speaker 2: If you guys are going to the game, be careful,

1411
00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:56,279
Speaker 2: a chill chill out a little bit. These Yankee fans

1412
00:54:56,320 --> 00:54:58,600
Speaker 2: are ony males and they're dying to get into a fight.

1413
00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:00,480
Speaker 2: I think that's what they want to do most So

1414
00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:02,640
Speaker 2: I am again everyone just be safe, be careful, like

1415
00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:05,839
Speaker 2: handle yourself, be a Mets fan. Cheer if you feel

1416
00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:10,600
Speaker 2: situation happening. People those bleachers. Just you know, they very

1417
00:55:10,600 --> 00:55:11,680
Speaker 2: easy for them to gang up on you.

1418
00:55:11,800 --> 00:55:15,400
Speaker 1: Be there called bleacher creatures, creatures, remember that.

1419
00:55:16,000 --> 00:55:17,880
Speaker 2: Just be the bigger man, be the bigger person. It's

1420
00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:19,920
Speaker 2: only seventy five dollars ticket to get in there, So.

1421
00:55:20,120 --> 00:55:21,680
Speaker 1: That's actually way cheaper than I thought.

1422
00:55:22,040 --> 00:55:23,839
Speaker 2: Cheapest ticket in the ballpark right now. If you want

1423
00:55:23,880 --> 00:55:25,400
Speaker 2: to go down low, you're you know, he's looking one

1424
00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:28,480
Speaker 2: twenty one thirty. But that's that's the ticket to ESPN

1425
00:55:29,160 --> 00:55:31,719
Speaker 2: that stop hubs list ONNY on the ESPN schedule, seventy eight,

1426
00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:32,400
Speaker 2: seventy Sity.

1427
00:55:32,200 --> 00:55:33,719
Speaker 1: Field's going to be Sydney Field's going to be the

1428
00:55:33,800 --> 00:55:36,320
Speaker 1: expensive ticket. It seems like there this is ninety.

1429
00:55:36,160 --> 00:55:38,320
Speaker 2: Right now, the cheapest ticket in the ballpark.

1430
00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:40,200
Speaker 1: Keeping yeah, I guess that's kind of fair for a

1431
00:55:40,239 --> 00:55:42,520
Speaker 1: regular season baseball game. One more thing to add for

1432
00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:44,320
Speaker 1: the Subway series on my part, I'll let you have

1433
00:55:44,520 --> 00:55:48,680
Speaker 1: more if you have any. Francisco Lindoor owns the Yankees.

1434
00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:52,279
Speaker 1: He lives and breathes to kill the Yankees. He's done

1435
00:55:52,320 --> 00:55:54,520
Speaker 1: in the playoffs, he's done in the regular season. He's

1436
00:55:54,560 --> 00:55:57,120
Speaker 1: played fifty three games of regular season baseball against the

1437
00:55:57,160 --> 00:56:00,520
Speaker 1: New York Yankees. Twelve homers, eighteen doubles twenty eight. RBIs

1438
00:56:00,719 --> 00:56:02,719
Speaker 1: at nine to eighty one ops with a three twenty

1439
00:56:02,760 --> 00:56:06,280
Speaker 1: average and four hundred on base. He loves playing the Yankees.

1440
00:56:06,320 --> 00:56:09,080
Speaker 1: He steps up big time. We know that he steps

1441
00:56:09,160 --> 00:56:11,120
Speaker 1: up big time in big games. He especially loves it

1442
00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:13,600
Speaker 1: against the Yankees when the bright lights are really really on.

1443
00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:15,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, we got a couple of National TV games.

1444
00:56:15,960 --> 00:56:18,080
Speaker 1: So just again, this is only TV games.

1445
00:56:18,560 --> 00:56:20,160
Speaker 2: This is Oh, they're all Friday is too.

1446
00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:22,240
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure there's no S and Y this weekend.

1447
00:56:22,239 --> 00:56:23,720
Speaker 1: I think Friday is Apple TV.

1448
00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:29,160
Speaker 2: Oh stop, No, is it not? No, it's not listen,

1450
00:56:31,520 --> 00:56:33,160
Speaker 2: listed nothing. Nothing in the ESPN.

1451
00:56:33,040 --> 00:56:35,480
Speaker 1: National Game No, I mean listen that would you might

Speaker 2: I did. Also.

1457
00:56:46,680 --> 00:56:47,920
Speaker 1: I don't know if you picked up on it, but

1458
00:56:48,520 --> 00:56:50,320
Speaker 1: ron mentioned he's gonna try to go to a Sunday

Speaker 1: to a Subway Series game that's.

1461
00:56:54,239 --> 00:56:56,600
Speaker 2: Called I mean the Subway Series again is awesome.

1462
00:56:56,840 --> 00:56:57,880
Speaker 1: Yes, it really is.

1463
00:56:57,960 --> 00:57:00,200
Speaker 2: Like it's a cool cultural moment that only a city

1464
00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:03,640
Speaker 2: like New York could really have. Also, this one specifically

1465
00:57:03,960 --> 00:57:06,839
Speaker 2: might get dicey. So just yes, just be careful after

1466
00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:08,560
Speaker 2: the third beer starts to just pay attention to.

1467
00:57:08,680 --> 00:57:11,560
Speaker 1: Yourself after the first beer started to pay attention to

1468
00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:14,239
Speaker 1: These guys are audi models. Remember remember last thing I said,

1469
00:57:14,239 --> 00:57:17,120
Speaker 1: I remember that thread that went around of like when

1470
00:57:17,120 --> 00:57:19,400
Speaker 1: they do the the freeze frame cuts of all the

1471
00:57:19,480 --> 00:57:21,760
Speaker 1: Yankees fans in the game, we might I think we

1472
00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:23,720
Speaker 1: should do that for this game. Is just take some

1473
00:57:23,840 --> 00:57:26,640
Speaker 1: freeze frame screenshots of all the craziness that we see

1474
00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:27,840
Speaker 1: from Yankees fans in this one.

1475
00:57:28,160 --> 00:57:29,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm down for that. Also, I totally forgot to

1476
00:57:29,760 --> 00:57:30,040
Speaker 2: mention it.

1477
00:57:30,120 --> 00:57:32,680
Speaker 1: There was a raccoon in city Fields tonight, and we're

1478
00:57:32,840 --> 00:57:35,320
Speaker 1: like very close to the anniversary of the ratcoon.

1479
00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:37,040
Speaker 2: I think we're past it. That was April.

1480
00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:39,160
Speaker 1: Oh, it was like May eighth. I have pictures of it.

1481
00:57:39,680 --> 00:57:42,320
Speaker 2: Really well, yeah, maybe this time of year raccoons. It

1482
00:57:42,400 --> 00:57:43,760
Speaker 2: was just also funny. It was just like walking around

1483
00:57:43,800 --> 00:57:45,880
Speaker 2: the mezzanine like it was an intersection, just chill. I

1484
00:57:46,120 --> 00:57:48,480
Speaker 2: I to climb the stairs like where I don't know

1485
00:57:48,560 --> 00:57:50,680
Speaker 2: we let them in. I don't know how well raccoons

1486
00:57:50,680 --> 00:57:52,800
Speaker 2: can climb. It was really just walking around the seats.

1487
00:57:52,960 --> 00:57:55,480
Speaker 2: They're great grabbers. I know, they got little little human

1488
00:57:55,560 --> 00:57:57,760
Speaker 2: hands and stuff like that. I love raccoons. I'm a

1489
00:57:57,800 --> 00:57:59,080
Speaker 2: huge raccoon guy. They're hilarious.

1490
00:57:59,080 --> 00:58:00,960
Speaker 1: It looked like awesome pets. Every time I see a

1491
00:58:01,000 --> 00:58:02,680
Speaker 1: raccoon video on TikTok, I'm watching this.

1492
00:58:02,840 --> 00:58:05,520
Speaker 2: Yes, I want that. They're smart, very smart animal smarting talks.

1493
00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:07,040
