1
00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:03,840
Speaker 1: Welcome everyone to the Monday edition of Fair Territory. We

2
00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:08,119
Speaker 1: are coming off a rollicking opening weekend of Major League Baseball.

3
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:11,080
Speaker 1: We have a ton to get to. I want to

4
00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:13,640
Speaker 1: go through the things that struck me the most. We

5
00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:15,560
Speaker 1: could really sit here all day and talk about that,

6
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 1: but I'll go through my highlights. Obviously it's not going

7
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:21,639
Speaker 1: to be a complete list, So don't start complaining, what

8
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:23,920
Speaker 1: about this? What about that? No, we're not doing that.

9
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:26,640
Speaker 1: We're going to try to get through as much as possible, though,

10
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:29,320
Speaker 1: because a lot of cool things have happened. All right,

11
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:31,320
Speaker 1: let's start with the series that I was at, the

12
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 1: Yankees Giant Series. Yankees look great. They allowed one run

13
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 1: in three games, swept the series. As I said on

14
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 1: the broadcast on Saturday, the thing that impresses me most

15
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 1: about the Yankees is obviously, yes, their team on the

16
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 1: field is very good, but the depth that they have

17
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:51,159
Speaker 1: in their organization with players on the injured list, Garrett

18
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 1: Cole and Carlos Rodin and Clark Schmidt, and then prospects

19
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 1: who are close to the majors And who am I

20
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 1: talking about Carlos Legrange, the other pitcher, Elma Rodriguez. Excuse me,

21
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 1: and then the outfielders Jason Domingiez, I know, we struggled

22
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:08,280
Speaker 1: on that ball at TRIPLEA the other day. Off the wall,

23
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 1: Spencer Jones, George Lombard, Cumming and others. They are in

24
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:16,680
Speaker 1: a position where if injuries strike, as they inevitably will,

25
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 1: they're in a reasonably good spot to carry on without

26
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 1: much loss. Obviously, you lose a judge or a stand

27
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 1: and that's a big deal. But that's what I like

28
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 1: about the Yankees. And obviously their offense, which was one

29
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: of the best in the elite game last year, is

30
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 1: back and still rather potent. The Giants, we're gonna be

31
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 1: talking about them a lot this season. They need to hit,

32
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:40,559
Speaker 1: and if they're not going to hit, then the whole

33
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:42,959
Speaker 1: thing is not going to work. It's three games. No

34
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,679
Speaker 1: one should be panicking yet, Let's see how this plays

35
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 1: out for them. They faced some great pitching Freed and

36
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 1: Schlitler and Warren. The Yankee starters were really good, though

37
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 1: not quite as good, perhaps as the Blue Jays starters

38
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 1: in their season opening sweep of the Athletics. Let's look

39
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 1: at something right here that really impressed me about the

40
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 1: Blue Jays and kind of an unsung thing right now

41
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 1: about where they are. Perhaps we all thought their rotation

42
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 1: would be good. This good, though, I'm not so sure.

43
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 1: Look at the strikeout totals for each of their starters

44
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 1: in this opening series. And Eric Lawer is not at

45
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 1: the level, of course of Gossman and Cease. But my goodness,

46
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:26,080
Speaker 1: eleven for Gossman, twelve for Seas, nine for Lower thirty.

47
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 1: Two strikeouts in sixteen and two thirds innings for the

48
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:35,240
Speaker 1: Blue Jays rotation. That is pretty good, all right? Elsewhere

49
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 1: excuse me elsewhere? Blue Jays, Yes, they've been great. The

50
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:43,080
Speaker 1: Brewers too. I know. They had an inferior opponent in

51
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: the Chicago White Sox, and they came back on Sunday.

52
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: They did some really good things in that series. They

53
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 1: are the Brewers of old again, even with their pitching questions,

54
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 1: already a two game lead up on the Cubs, and

55
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,640
Speaker 1: the Cubs, well, they didn't have a great opponent either.

56
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 1: They played the Washington national and lost two of three

57
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: in the opening series. So here we go in the

58
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 1: NL Central also want to mention with the Nationals, Joey

59
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 1: Weimer Waiver claim reaches in each of his first eight

60
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: played appearances for Washington. Good for him. Great weekend for

61
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 1: Joey Weimer. Now, the thing that struck me most about

62
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 1: this weekend perhaps would be the performances of some of

63
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 1: the ballyhooed rookies we had all across the league. And

64
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 1: I can go right down the line. Let's start with

65
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,079
Speaker 1: Murakami coming from Japan, three home runs in three games,

66
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 1: and then go to some of the other players we're

67
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 1: talking about. Chase the Laughter from the Cleveland Guardians. My goodness,

68
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 1: four home runs first three games, first player since Trevor

69
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 1: Story and the only other player since Trevor's Story to

70
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 1: do that, and three of the guys he took deeper

71
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 1: among the better pitchers in the game off that Seattle staff,

72
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 1: Andre Munos Andres Munos, George Kirby, and Logan Gilbert. Pretty

73
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: good group there. He also broke up a no hitter

74
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,839
Speaker 1: on Sunday. Pretty good weekend for Chase the latter Now

75
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: Kevin McGonagall. He had a fantastic debut four for five

76
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 1: in that game. He's five for twelve overall. He was

77
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 1: robbed of a home run by Jackson Merrill on Saturday

78
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 1: and then came back with a ten pitch at bat

79
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: against Wandy Peralta, in which he laced the go ahead single.

80
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 1: This guy looks like he's going to be a stud

81
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 1: in the game for a long time. The same might

82
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 1: be true of the Marlins. Owen Casey, what did he

83
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 1: do this weekend? He was pretty good too, to run

84
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 1: walk off home run yesterday. That would be Sunday five

85
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 1: for ten overall with three extra base hits. He of

86
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 1: course was the big prize for the Marlins in that

87
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: Edward Cabrera trade, and then the Cardinals Jj weatherhold home

88
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 1: run and his debut for his first major league hit,

89
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 1: and then a walk off two run single on Saturday.

90
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:54,919
Speaker 1: So some really spectacular performances by rookies, and yes, I

91
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 1: probably of leaving off one or two, but those were

92
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 1: the ones that stood out perhaps most of me. They

93
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:02,919
Speaker 1: were really good, these guys, and they're going to be

94
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,360
Speaker 1: really good. They're going to be fun to watch. At

95
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,799
Speaker 1: some point, we'll get Connor Griffin up here as well,

96
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 1: and we'll see other rookies impressed in the same way

97
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:14,840
Speaker 1: that these guys have done. The Rookie of the Year

98
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 1: races in both leagues could be rather good. Now, on

99
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 1: a lighter note, perhaps some closer entrances that we saw

100
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 1: this weekend that were, I don't know, pretty cool. Mason

101
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:31,360
Speaker 1: Miller of the Padres coming out to the group. Well,

102
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,840
Speaker 1: it's the ah, I'm screwing up this all right. I'm

103
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:36,279
Speaker 1: not gonna say this song because I'm not sure what

104
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 1: it is, but Mason Miller has a new great entrance song.

105
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,119
Speaker 1: You see it right there. Obviously, the light's going back

106
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 1: and forth, and it's really cool. It's a heavy metal song.

107
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: Korn's Blind, I believe, is what it is. So yes,

108
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 1: Korn's Blind, all right, Sorry for the brand cramp there.

109
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:57,040
Speaker 1: The other one, well, Edwin Diaz. We've seen his act before.

110
00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 1: We've seen what he does coming into Narco with the Mets,

111
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 1: and of course he did it with the Dodgers as well.

112
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: You remember timmy trumpet would play live once in a

113
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,719
Speaker 1: while with the Mets when Edwin Diaz was there, he

114
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 1: would be the guy playing the trumpet part from Narco.

115
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:16,720
Speaker 1: The Dodgers brought in someone with the same initials, Tatiyana Tate.

116
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 1: She did the same thing and the Dodgers had kind

117
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: of a raucous time with Edwin Diaz doing the Narco entrance.

118
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,839
Speaker 1: So some cool entrances by closers and a lot of

119
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 1: good things happening. Now, one thing that was a little

120
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 1: more troubling, at least in the opening game that the

121
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Pirates played O'Neil Cruz in centerfield. Now, you saw

122
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 1: some discourse after opening day about Paul Skenes and Matthew

123
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,599
Speaker 1: Boyd and Logan Webb all having rough starts. Well, yes,

124
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 1: by the pitching lines they did. Problem was Paul Skeins

125
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 1: would not have had a rough start if not for

126
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:56,360
Speaker 1: two misplays in centerfield by O'Neil Cruz. The sun obviously

127
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 1: was a factor here, it was an issue for him.

128
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,600
Speaker 1: You see the tweet there from Noah Hale's of our

129
00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 1: own network, the Foul Territory Network, about this about how

130
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 1: O'Neal Cruz in centerfield could be an issue. Now, yesterday

131
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 1: the play that's cut down Lindor at the plate in

132
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 1: the Pirates extra ending victory over the Mets. O'Neil Cruz

133
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 1: started that relay with a good throw from centerfield. So

134
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 1: he's a work in progress. It remains to be seen

135
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 1: just how good he's going to be or not good

136
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 1: out there. But O'Neil Cruz with Pittsburgh trying to take

137
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 1: a step forward here. That's a bit of an issue

138
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 1: right now. So with that we close out my initial

139
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 1: impressions of Opening Weekend. We're going to get to ABS

140
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 1: and the Inside Dish. Trust me on that, and trust

141
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 1: me as well, I will never forget Korn's blind again.

142
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 1: Just a brain cram, Folks, Calm down, relax, We're having fun.

143
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,280
Speaker 1: It's Opening Weekend. We'll be back with the Inside Dish

144
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:57,680
Speaker 1: after this.

164
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 1: Right, time now for the inside dish to part of

165
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 1: the show where I talk about maybe a story I've written,

166
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,960
Speaker 1: a trend in the game, something else entirely, And today

167
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,040
Speaker 1: it will be a combination of both a COMMI I

168
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 1: wrote for Today's Athletic and a trend in the game,

169
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 1: actually an innovation in the game, the one we know

170
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:11,760
Speaker 1: as the Automated ball Strike System ABS. And I want

171
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: to show you a post on x to start with

172
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,920
Speaker 1: from the Democratic Senator from Connecticut, Chris Murphy. Now we're

173
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 1: not getting political here, but I just want to show

174
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 1: you this, he tweets last night. ABS is not making

175
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:27,080
Speaker 1: the game better. He was ratioed like you wouldn't believe.

176
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 1: Fans love ABS. And that's what I want to talk

177
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:33,840
Speaker 1: about here. The one unexpected thing from ABS, at least

178
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 1: for me so far, was and has been the entertainment value.

179
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 1: And it was perhaps most exemplified by what happened in

180
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:47,079
Speaker 1: Cincinnati on Saturday, when two straight strike three calls against

181
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 1: Ajohanni Osuarez by C. B. Buckner were overturned. By the system,

182
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,839
Speaker 1: and the crowd, with the bases loaded and the Reds

183
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:58,440
Speaker 1: leading but looking to add to their lead, went nuts

184
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 1: on each of the overturn calls. The play by play

185
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,679
Speaker 1: announcer for the Reds kind of got into it too,

186
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 1: so it's allowed, as the crowd has been all day

187
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 1: and the Reds have hit two home runs, and it

188
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,880
Speaker 1: was just really an example of how abs can be

189
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,840
Speaker 1: part of the crowd experience. Now we all knew obviously

190
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 1: it would be on the scoreboard and it would go

191
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,439
Speaker 1: about it that way, but to see it in action

192
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 1: and to see it in ballparks all across America. I

193
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 1: had a game Saturday, the Fox Game in San Francisco,

194
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 1: in which there were seven challenges and all seven were overturned.

195
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,959
Speaker 1: That's how good the teams were that day in making

196
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,199
Speaker 1: their educated guesses, so to speak. So this was something

197
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 1: I didn't expect. And there was also a sequence Sunday

198
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 1: where you saw Minnesota Twins manager Derek Shelton ejected for

199
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 1: arguing not the call by the robot, but whether it

200
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:53,760
Speaker 1: took Baltimore Orioles closer Ryan Helsley too long to challenge. Now,

201
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:58,320
Speaker 1: Hellsley did tap his cap quickly. It wasn't clear whether

202
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:00,320
Speaker 1: the umpire saw it, so he did it again, and

203
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 1: that's where Shelton probably saw, Hey, WHOA, what's going on here?

204
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,840
Speaker 1: But it seemed to me that it did happen quickly enough.

205
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 1: And that said overall, when you watch ABS unfold in

206
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:15,320
Speaker 1: a park or on your television screen, it does move quickly.

207
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,960
Speaker 1: In fact, I remember, or I've seen in tennis when

208
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:23,680
Speaker 1: the Hawkeye automation comes into play and they're showing it

209
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 1: on the score, where the crowd will clap rhythmically as

210
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 1: if like, wow, this is something cool that's coming. In baseball.

211
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 1: So far, it seems to me it's happened so quick

212
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:35,280
Speaker 1: that there's not even time for the crowd to get

213
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 1: into it in that fashion. So ABS, so far, and

214
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 1: I emphasize the words, so far is a hit. Now.

215
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 1: What's interesting is that we're in the shiny new toy

216
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:51,400
Speaker 1: phase of this. Right. We have seen nothing too egregious

217
00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:54,600
Speaker 1: as far as overturned calls. We've seen good things happen,

218
00:11:55,200 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 1: but we've also seen the possibility of not bad things

219
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 1: is happening, but outcomes that might not be all that desirable.

220
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 1: We've seen some calls decided by a tenth of an inch,

221
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,679
Speaker 1: and as Jason Stark informed us in his article on

222
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 1: March twenty fourth in The Athletic. And actually we've written

223
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 1: about this before, Jason and I ourselves, there is margin

224
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 1: fer error here, and I want to show you what

225
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 1: Jason wrote. League officials told The Athletic that MLB is

226
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,720
Speaker 1: ninety five percent confident that a pitch would be within

227
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,840
Speaker 1: zero point thirty nine inches of the location where the

228
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 1: ABS system pinpoints it. The league also is confident, it

229
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 1: is ninety I'm sorry, ninety nine percent confident that the

230
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,839
Speaker 1: location would be within zero point four to eight inches.

231
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:44,439
Speaker 1: That's about a half inch of where ABS said it landed.

232
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 1: That's not one hundred percent, it's ninety nine percent, or

233
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:51,160
Speaker 1: it's ninety five percent. And the problem with that is,

234
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 1: as Jason has written, let's say a World Series game

235
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 1: comes down to a tie score in the ninth inning

236
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 1: with the basis loaded and a three to two count,

237
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,680
Speaker 1: and a call gets overturned by a tenth of an inch.

238
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 1: You're within the margin for error. And that's a problem.

239
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 1: And we're going to see games decided that way. Maybe

240
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,959
Speaker 1: not Games seven of the World Series, but it could happen.

241
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 1: We had Games seven of the World Series get down

242
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,959
Speaker 1: to a pretty nitty gritty last year in the ninth inning,

243
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 1: so we will see how this all plays out. And

244
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 1: in his article, Jason wrote how some players were in

245
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 1: favor of a buffer zone in which umpires would be

246
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 1: permitted some grace where if a pitch is within a

247
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,600
Speaker 1: certain margin for error, say a half inch as an example,

248
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 1: then it could be a call stands situation, much as

249
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 1: we see with instant replay right when the call is

250
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 1: not overturned. There are problems with that. It creates confusion,

251
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 1: and ultimately the league decided it didn't want to go there.

252
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:54,640
Speaker 1: So we're going to see a lot of interesting things happen.

253
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 1: And as I wrote in my story my column today,

254
00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 1: we've already seen star players regretting not doing certain things

255
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:05,560
Speaker 1: with abs, either not challenging or challenging too early and

256
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 1: burning a challenge. We saw that with Roman Anthony and

257
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 1: Kyle Schwarber. They expressed remorse about not a I'm sorry

258
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 1: challenging when they shouldn't have perhaps, and we saw Spencer

259
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 1: Torkolsen express regret about, hey, I should have challenged earlier

260
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:23,840
Speaker 1: in the game when I had a real shot there

261
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 1: and I didn't and it cost us. You're going to

262
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 1: see that there are new forms of strategy here, new

263
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 1: forms of scrutiny, and new things for us to debate.

264
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 1: And in my view, with baseball, it is the best

265
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 1: talking sport. It always has been. It's a sport where

266
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 1: the action is not so fast, where you can't talk

267
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:46,440
Speaker 1: about things between pitches, between innings, even though it's faster

268
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 1: with the pitch clock, And it's a sport which, because

269
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 1: it plays out over six months and one hundred and

270
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 1: sixty two games, gives us endless opportunities to talk about

271
00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 1: things and debate things and all of that, and that's

272
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:02,160
Speaker 1: where the strategy element here comes into play. It's really

273
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 1: interesting to see how players are handling it, and it

274
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 1: will be really interesting to see how players and teams

275
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 1: evolve in their thinking with how aggressively to use their challenges. Remembered,

276
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 1: you're permitted to per game. If you are correct, you

277
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:19,000
Speaker 1: can keep going. You retain your challenge. If you're incorrect

278
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 1: and you lose your two by the ninth inning, well

279
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 1: you're out of luck. And Jason has pointed out too

280
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 1: that what happens if a team loses its challenges, and

281
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:31,160
Speaker 1: then we see an agreeious call occur in the ninth inning. Well,

282
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 1: that's too bad. That's part of the system. So I

283
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:38,920
Speaker 1: am all in favor of anything in baseball that encourages

284
00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 1: more discussion, more debate, more decision making. And I've actually

285
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 1: in the story in the column mentioned that I would

286
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,600
Speaker 1: like to see draft picks traded. I would like to

287
00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 1: see a second trade deadline at the winter meetings. Again,

288
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 1: more decision making, more things to discuss, more things to

289
00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:00,440
Speaker 1: debate and have fun with. That is what ABA is

290
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 1: proving to be so far. You might have seen the

291
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 1: hilarious Randy A Rose Arena helmet tap after he was

292
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 1: three steps up the line so convinced of his correctness

293
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 1: with a challenge the other night in Seattle, and it

294
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 1: proved to be correct in his case, not by a lot,

295
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,680
Speaker 1: but he was right. So we're gonna see an entertainment

296
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:26,040
Speaker 1: aspect here that perhaps some people didn't anticipate. I sure didn't.

297
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 1: And the game is supposed to be fun. ABS is

298
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:33,280
Speaker 1: making it fun. We're gonna see some unintended consequences. We're

299
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 1: gonna see some unfortunate things happen at the same time.

300
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 1: On balance, I'm down with this. I'm good with this. ABS,

301
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 1: in my view, is a success. All right, with that,

302
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 1: we will take a break. Grilling Can is coming up

303
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 1: right after this. All right, time now for Grilling Can

304
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:00,320
Speaker 1: the part of the program where you guys get to

305
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:06,199
Speaker 1: ask me questions. Let's get going. First question comes from

306
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 1: videos two seven. Is Murakami better than we thought he was?

307
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 1: Fair question? And actually at the start of the off

308
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:17,880
Speaker 1: season the predictions for Murakami in free agency turned out

309
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,040
Speaker 1: to be much higher than what he actually got from

310
00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:23,159
Speaker 1: the White Sox, and there were some questions about swing

311
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:27,040
Speaker 1: and miss, questions about defense, questions as they always are

312
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:32,160
Speaker 1: about Japanese players adapting to major league pitching. Well, so far,

313
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:34,919
Speaker 1: so good. He had the three homers in three games

314
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,920
Speaker 1: against the Brewers. Obviously you want to see a play out.

315
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:41,399
Speaker 1: Obviously we are in the small sample overreaction phase of

316
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:46,360
Speaker 1: the season the opening week. But again it's very encouraging

317
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,119
Speaker 1: and there's no question he has power. That was not

318
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:53,360
Speaker 1: a question coming over from Japan. So the question will

319
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:56,680
Speaker 1: be as major league pitchers adjust to him, how will

320
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 1: he adjust in kind, and whether he will be able

321
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 1: to saying not a one hundred and sixty two homer

322
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,359
Speaker 1: in one hundred and sixty two game performance, but a

323
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 1: level that is comparable to what he was able to

324
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:12,399
Speaker 1: do in Japan. All right, next question, This one comes

325
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,720
Speaker 1: from Texas or a fan Rangers fan. Is McCutcheon making

326
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:17,879
Speaker 1: enough of an impression on the Rangers that they'd be

327
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 1: willing to buy out Jack Peterson should his struggles continue? Okay,

328
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:26,200
Speaker 1: slow down, we're talking again about the opening weekend, And yes,

329
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 1: Andrew McCutcheon had a great opening weekend. I could have

330
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,439
Speaker 1: mentioned him in the open to the show when I

331
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 1: was running through the things that made the strongest impression

332
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,440
Speaker 1: because that exchange that he had with the Phillies fan

333
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:40,920
Speaker 1: after his home run yesterday in which the Phillies fans saying,

334
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 1: come on, Cutch, give us a break, and he was like,

335
00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 1: hey man, I'm sorry. That was great. That was hilarious.

336
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:52,200
Speaker 1: So obviously, over time, if McCutchen has that big an impact, yes,

337
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:56,520
Speaker 1: they could be looking at a different perspective on Jock Peterson,

338
00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 1: but they go to they are going to need Jack

339
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 1: Peterson to be really good too, and offense has been

340
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,120
Speaker 1: an issue for the Rangers. We need to see more

341
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,639
Speaker 1: from Cutch. We need to see more from Jock. Again,

342
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,719
Speaker 1: It's the opening weekend, not time to overreact. All right,

343
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:15,720
Speaker 1: Let's get to the next question. This one comes from

344
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:17,800
Speaker 1: John C. Ninety who says, if a team like the

345
00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:20,120
Speaker 1: Pirates suddenly had as much money as the Dodgers, where

346
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:23,639
Speaker 1: they develop the same level success of success or is

347
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 1: it more than money? Great question, and I would say

348
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 1: to you, it is more than money, And yes, the

349
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,879
Speaker 1: Dodgers spend more than other teams. But I will point

350
00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 1: you to a story by the athletics Fabian our Diet

351
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:40,120
Speaker 1: last week about the Dodgers' culture and about the way

352
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:43,440
Speaker 1: players hold each other accountable and how the emphasis there

353
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:46,080
Speaker 1: is on winning and winning only that's part of it.

354
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:50,400
Speaker 1: With the Dodgers. They are also excellent at developing players

355
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 1: in the minor leagues, identifying which players to draft, identifying

356
00:19:54,520 --> 00:20:00,040
Speaker 1: players to or who might be undervalued by other teams

357
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,400
Speaker 1: but could play valuable roles for them. There have been

358
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:06,920
Speaker 1: countless examples of that. So the Dodgers, at every level

359
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:11,720
Speaker 1: of evaluation are operating on a higher level than every

360
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 1: other team. So the Pirates would not be the Dodgers

361
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 1: if they were simply spending the same amount of money

362
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,479
Speaker 1: and you see this in other leagues as well, salary

363
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 1: cap pleagues. Certain teams are run better than others, and

364
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:28,200
Speaker 1: that is how they are enabled to be so successful

365
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:34,719
Speaker 1: over extended periods of time. All right, next question from

366
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:38,400
Speaker 1: Foul Territory Show. Are you worried about Bobashett? I will

367
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:40,680
Speaker 1: point you to a column by Joel Sherman of the

368
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,200
Speaker 1: New York Post, my friend and someone I admire greatly,

369
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 1: who writes about Bobashet on Monday today and basically says,

370
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 1: don't worry about Bobashet. If you're the Mets, You've got

371
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:54,679
Speaker 1: other issues. Maybe Bobashet's defense a little bit Polanco's defense

372
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,159
Speaker 1: at first, Maybe Sean man I is lack of velocity.

373
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,520
Speaker 1: There are other issues that are surfacing with the Mets.

374
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 1: Bobashet being able to hit is not going to be

375
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,040
Speaker 1: one of them. Bobashett is going to hit. They have

376
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:10,360
Speaker 1: every reason to believe that. It was interesting to hear

377
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:13,800
Speaker 1: his own view of his opening start with the Nets.

378
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,120
Speaker 1: Basically said he was surprised it took the fans as

379
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,879
Speaker 1: long to boo him as it did. So Bobashett clearly

380
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,320
Speaker 1: knows what is ahead of him. Clearly knows what he

381
00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:26,000
Speaker 1: has to do for the Mets and him hitting, I

382
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:29,520
Speaker 1: do not expect to be a problem. All right, let's

383
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,440
Speaker 1: get to another question here. We're ripping through him. This morning.

384
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:35,880
Speaker 1: Video Game Nation twenty six asked, do you think teams

385
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:38,960
Speaker 1: at some point in the future will need three ABS

386
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:43,400
Speaker 1: challenges instead of only two? There is a reason it's

387
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 1: only two, and that's because Baseball wants to keep the

388
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:50,080
Speaker 1: game moving and they want teams to approach this not

389
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,119
Speaker 1: as oh, we can challenge at any time, but to

390
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 1: use those challenges selectively and only in certain situations where

391
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 1: they believe it's the most leverage. Okay, so I am

392
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:06,160
Speaker 1: quite certain the system at some point will require tweaks.

393
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 1: I don't know that baseball is ever going to want

394
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:12,119
Speaker 1: to get to three, four or five challenges. Now, the

395
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:15,520
Speaker 1: next question to come out of that would be why

396
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 1: not full ABS? And I address this in my column.

397
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,480
Speaker 1: I don't want full ABS. I don't know that anyone

398
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 1: should want full ABS. You're taking the human element out

399
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:28,640
Speaker 1: of it entirely. At that point. You're taking framing out

400
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:30,800
Speaker 1: of it from a player's perspective, and there's still great

401
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:34,920
Speaker 1: value in framing. And you're also removing the homeplate umpire.

402
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,359
Speaker 1: And let's face it, these guys do a great job

403
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:40,959
Speaker 1: on balance, and you see that by the percentage of

404
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:46,679
Speaker 1: pitches challenged, it's not a great percentage. The umpires, if anything,

405
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 1: with ABS are only going to be helped because yes,

406
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 1: on occasion, when they miss a call, it does happen.

407
00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:55,720
Speaker 1: We're all human. This will be able to help them

408
00:22:55,760 --> 00:23:01,320
Speaker 1: this system. So I don't see an increasing challenges being

409
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,919
Speaker 1: something that Baseball looks at in the future, and I

410
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:08,359
Speaker 1: don't see full ABS being the answer. This system is

411
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:10,640
Speaker 1: pretty good right now the way it is, at least

412
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:14,240
Speaker 1: based on the opening weekend, and again small sample, we

413
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:18,159
Speaker 1: haven't seen some of these unintended consequences that I have

414
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,800
Speaker 1: feared come to pass yet in a big way. I'm

415
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 1: sure we will in time. And then in time also

416
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:28,200
Speaker 1: MLBU can look at the system and decide whether tweaks

417
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:31,200
Speaker 1: are necessary. All right, let's get to another question here.

418
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 1: This one comes from Slice Life, who asks, with the

419
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:36,960
Speaker 1: struggle of the top of the star lineup of the Phillies,

420
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:39,760
Speaker 1: would you make a lineup change to switch things up?

421
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 1: What would your approach to this be. You're talking there

422
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:45,960
Speaker 1: about Bryce Harper, and I understand it. But at the

423
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 1: same time, my goodness, this is the smallest of samples,

424
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:53,680
Speaker 1: and I am referring all morning to Opening week overreaction.

425
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,200
Speaker 1: This is a case where if the Phillies made a

426
00:23:56,320 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 1: change now, it would be Opening week overreaction. Are going

427
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 1: to settle down. If in two months we have the

428
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:06,800
Speaker 1: same kind of problem, even two weeks, then maybe maybe

429
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 1: you look at it a little bit differently. But right

430
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,879
Speaker 1: now it's not time to start changing lineups or anything

431
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:15,239
Speaker 1: like that. And I'll refer also to another team in

432
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:18,719
Speaker 1: this kind of category. San Francisco Giants just saw them

433
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:22,720
Speaker 1: all weekend again. One run in three games not ideal,

434
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 1: and that offense might not be as good as the

435
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,920
Speaker 1: names on paper would suggest. But Tony v. Teller the

436
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,680
Speaker 1: managers basically said, this is who we're sticking with. We'll

437
00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 1: tweak at times. They tweak their lineup Saturday, but overall

438
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaker 1: they're gonna stick with the guys who at least have

439
00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:41,440
Speaker 1: gotten them to this point, or at least the guys

440
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 1: that they've envisioned getting them to where they need to be.

441
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:49,440
Speaker 1: It's not time yet to change anything dramatically, all right.

442
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:51,679
Speaker 1: I want to thank everyone for watching and for listening.

443
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:55,159
Speaker 1: Foul Territory coming up at one pm Easton. That's Todd,
