I'm told I have to start with his story. 39 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:42,800 Speaker 1: Everyone wants to know what I think if they start, 40 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: because my opinion matters, So we'll start in Los Angeles. 41 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: The fourth of July weekend has come and gone. The 42 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:54,679 Speaker 1: pyrotechnic shows have ended, although I did see some fireworks 43 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:56,399 Speaker 1: on the way into the studio, so they're still going 44 00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 1: on in many places. But the cheating a yes, one 45 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:05,399 Speaker 1: one thousand and two. One thousand holes were stopping by 46 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 1: SoCal and they monster mashed the cheaters against the Dodgers 47 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,800 Speaker 1: this weekend. There was a lot of joy, a lot 48 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: of euphoria among the fan base. There those that support 49 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:25,920 Speaker 1: the vermin of baseball, the deplorable, cheating scumbags of Major 50 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: League Baseball. So I don't know if you watched it, 51 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: and if you probably didn't because you're not doing things 52 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 1: where you sit and watch a stupid game on television, 53 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: because you know, stuff going on holiday weekend, spend time 54 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: with friends and family and all that. Well, it started 55 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: out within eighteen to one annihilation. It was to the 56 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 1: point where Oral Herscheizer Dodger broadcasters said, well, maybe these 57 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: guys are cheating again, and it certainly looked that way, 58 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: and it'd be hard to argue they weren't. It would 59 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 1: be hard to argue and have any other point than 60 00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: they Why were they not doing again? They did it, 61 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: but four they got away with it. So that was 62 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: on Friday, continued through Sunday, the old sweep. So let 63 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 1: us discuss the question. And here it is for the 64 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: estem panther. You have a message for the Houston fans 65 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 1: who seem to be orgasmic over beating up the Dodgers 66 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,160 Speaker 1: over the weekend. So my thoughts on this. I've got 67 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 1: big tobacco, pepe le pew and creampuff, and we will 68 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 1: combine all of these things together and we are going 69 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 1: to have a Smorgesborg, is what we're going to have. 70 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 1: So a do I have a message? Of course we 71 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 1: have message. We have a big message for the Houston fans. 72 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 1: And we've been on there for years on the radio 73 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,359 Speaker 1: dial there in Houston. In fact, we happen to be 74 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: on the Astro station, which is quite quite amusing, but 75 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 1: absolutely so for mister Irrigation and o Cho Texto and 76 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: Alex the Cinical and Ivan the Terrible and all these 77 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 1: other characters who either used to live in Houston or 78 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 1: live there now or Houston adjacent and all that stuff. 79 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,239 Speaker 1: All you other blokes you know who you are. Okay, 80 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 1: we don't give a rats ass that the Houston Astros 81 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 1: just swept the Dodgers. They can go sweep the Padres, 82 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 1: they can sweep the Tigers, they can go sweep the 83 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,839 Speaker 1: twenty seven freakin' Yankees for all I care. It doesn't 84 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 1: matter to me. It doesn't matter to me. They can 85 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 1: reincarnate Babe Ruth and they can strike Babe Ruth out 86 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 1: every time. It doesn't matter because it's turd polishing is 87 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,720 Speaker 1: what it is, right, and you're not supposed to be 88 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 1: able to polish a turd. And the Astros are turds, 89 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 1: is what they are. And you can try all you 90 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 1: want to rewrite history, right, try to rewrite history because 91 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: you want a few games in July of twenty twenty five. Congratulations, 92 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:02,799 Speaker 1: whoa oh man, some games in July twenty twenty five. 93 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: Who cares? Right? Seriously?

And let me say this slowly for 99 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,280 Speaker 1: those of you in the back of the room that 100 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,840 Speaker 1: are hung over from your holiday weekend.

Wasn't just a little bend 103 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,799 Speaker 1: of the rules? No, no, no, no no, they didn't 104 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 1: find some competitive edge. Some of you a holes like 105 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: they say that, Oh, it was just a competitive edge bend. 106 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 1: Why are you such an a schmock?

They banged on trash cans, 109 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 1: bite bind in the freaking World Series. They did it. 110 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 1: It was in the World Series video. Major League Baseball 111 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: is so stupid. They put this in the Major League 112 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 1: Baseball produced World Series video, the table that they used 113 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: to send the signs in to the batters. Okay, they cheated, 114 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 1: and it was in the World Series video from twenty seventeen. 115 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 1: They were banging on trash cans like a toddler on 116 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 1: a candy high, right, a sugar rush and all that. 117 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 1: They used all kinds of illicit methods to steal signs 118 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 1: that year, like a kleptomaniac walking through the Astros souvenir 119 00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 1: shop and just I'll take a hat, I'll throw that 120 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: down my shorts. I'll take a shirt, I'll shove that up, Mike, 121 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 1: Mike Keysterer, whatever I have to do. And they did it, all, 122 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 1: all of it, all of it to get a worthless, 123 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 1: worthless hunk of metal. It's called a commissioner of Major 124 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 1: League Baseball. Just a worthless hunk of metal. And when 125 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: you think about it, there's a lot of parts to this. Obviously. 126 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: The reason that I have not forgotten and we'll never 127 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 1: forget is for the most part, they got away with it. 128 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,559 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball endorsed it. They indorsed cheating, which is 129 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 1: odd because I see them punishing, you know, random baseball 130 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 1: players for involving being involved in gambling. Uh. Some no 131 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 1: name pitcher for the Cleveland Guardians is currently on time 132 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: out because he could have been involved in gambling. But 133 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 1: a team cheating in the World Series, We're good, We're good. Nah, 134 00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 1: We're fine. And the reason that happened in is because 135 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:05,359 Speaker 1: baseball has a leadership vacuum. They have a spineless, toothless 136 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:09,199 Speaker 1: commissioner who is still the commissioner of Major League Baseball. 137 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 1: No vacated title for a team that cheated in the 138 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 1: World Series. No postseason ban, no player got suspended who 139 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: took part in illicit activity. In fact, the only few 140 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 1: people that got punished, they're all back. They're all back 141 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 1: in baseball, right, all of them. The manager of the 142 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: De George Tigers right now, was the manager when the Tiger, 143 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: when the a holes were cheating there in Houston. He's 144 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 1: now managing the Tigers. So now we can't even enjoy 145 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 1: what they're doing in Detroit because it's sullied because of 146 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,319 Speaker 1: the manager. And I go down the list, right, and 147 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:46,080 Speaker 1: it was a not even a slap on the wrist. 148 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 1: That's what even count a slap. You hit the wrist. 149 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 1: It hurts a little bit. That wasn't even that. Rob Manford, 150 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 1: the toothless, gutless commissioner of Major League Baseball, what an 151 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 1: embarrassment eight years out nothing. In fact, Baseball ran interference 152 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 1: for the schmucks. They ran interference. They ran a PR campaign, 153 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,959 Speaker 1: a PR campaign. Now, when I was a little kid, 154 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,679 Speaker 1: my dad tried to get me don't smoke cigarettes. When 155 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: I was a kid, everyone's smoking ciaret. My Dad's like, 156 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,680 Speaker 1: don't smoke cigarettes. Might am I big tobacco. 157 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 3: Right. 158 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: What Major League Baseball did to cover for the Asstros 159 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 1: cheating is next level. It's like big tobaccos and aw 160 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:29,960 Speaker 1: cigarettes aren't bad for you, They're good. Go for it, 161 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:33,439 Speaker 1: you know, smoke your lungs out. They ran interference for 162 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 1: the scoundrel. And so because of a random series July 163 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 1: fourth weekend where the a holes beat the Dodgers, the 164 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 1: good guys three games in a row, Like somehow that 165 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 1: changes something. No, it just reinforces what we all we 166 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 1: already knew truth justice in the in the American way 167 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 1: of fighting the a holes from Houston. And how are 168 00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 1: things looking, By the way, how are things looking? For 169 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 1: the face, the duplicitor face, it's a small face. It's 170 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 1: a little face of the Astros. That would be Jose 171 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 1: al Tuba, better known by his forever nickname al Boove. 172 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 1: Hey up, pant him down, check him for the buzzer. Yeah, 173 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 1: so he is forever branded no matter what he does. 174 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:25,959 Speaker 1: And he only got a couple of years left in baseball. 175 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 1: But al boub has been branded as the guy who 176 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:34,319 Speaker 1: wouldn't let his jersey get ripped off after a walk 177 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: off homer in the American League Championship Series in twenty seventeen, 178 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 1: a year that he won the most bogus MVP award 179 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 1: of all time. The little fella, he said at the time, 180 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 1: I'm shy. I'm shy. My wife doesn't like that. Yeah, 181 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 1: and if you believe that you are the most gullible 182 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 1: man in the world. No, he didn't have the jersey. 183 00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 1: He want the jersey ripped off because he had a buzzer. Hey, 184 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:04,319 Speaker 1: check for the buzzer. Right now, we've heard better excuses. Now, 185 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,080 Speaker 1: we heard a lot of excuses over these. We have 186 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 1: heard better excuses from the guy that gets caught, you know, 187 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 1: goes home from the night out with the fellows at 188 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: the bar, has lipstick all over his collar. There's better 189 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:19,319 Speaker 1: excuses from that guy, then the Astros with al Bouve 190 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 1: and the buzzer. Right, and you can win all the 191 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: games with every game doesn't matter. Right, You can trot 192 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 1: out your shiny roster of players there and all this 193 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 1: analytics department brag about that flex and all that, and 194 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 1: your smug little smirks you a holes. It changes nothing, right, 195 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 1: because Jose al Bouve is the pepe Le pew of baseball. 196 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: Pe Yeah, what stinks, al Boo, that's who stinks. He'll 197 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 1: never outrun it. It doesn't matter what the man does. 198 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 1: The real ones know the truth. The real ones know 199 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: the truth. You can't run that stench. You can't do it. 200 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: Can't do it. You're not fast enough. And when people 201 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 1: say Houston Astros, they don't think of greatness. They don't 202 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:19,079 Speaker 1: think of a sustained dynasty. They think another d word, disgrace, 203 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:23,080 Speaker 1: because that is what that franchise is. So go ahead, 204 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: Astro fanboys, celebrate, Go got god, go crazy, knock yourself out. 205 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 1: And I understand. You beat a real team, the Dodgers. Congratulations. 206 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 1: Probably cheated while you were doing it, because that's what 207 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 1: you do. Why would you stop? You got away with 208 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 1: it baseball in Doorstead. They ran a big tobacco type 209 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 1: campaign to cover for you, So why would you not 210 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:45,679 Speaker 1: keep doing it? Right? Nothing has changed, nothing has changed, 211 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 1: no matter how many wins, go back to the World 212 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:53,200 Speaker 1: Series again, It doesn't matter, right, doesn't matter. You aren't 213 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 1: forever known as a team that needed a trash can 214 00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,959 Speaker 1: a trash can to beat the Dodger Wiels and oh, 215 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 1: by the way, didn't even outscore the Dodgers, and even 216 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,959 Speaker 1: go to seven games to win the World Stairs Walt cheating. 217 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 1: Think about how much better the twenty seventeen Dodger team 218 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 1: was when the Houston team. The Houston team was, they 219 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,680 Speaker 1: were cheating, They knew what was coming on most of 220 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 1: the pitchers, and the Dodgers took him to a game seven. 221 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 1: How embarrassing would have been a sweep without that would 222 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:28,200 Speaker 1: have been a sweep. It's gotta suck to if you're 223 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 1: an Albouve fan. Albuve is not going to the Hall 224 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 1: of Fame. He's not. He's not. They won't put in 225 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 1: Barry Bonds. They won't put in Roger Clements, those guys, 226 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 1: I'd put them in instead of Albouve. Maybe when he's dead, 227 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:45,360 Speaker 1: like Pete Rose, they'll put him in the Hall of Fame, 228 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: all right now, last word, So turning the page from that, 229 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 1: we had a shakeup in the managerial ranks and the 230 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 1: front office of Major League Baseball. The guillotine, the hammer 231 00:14:56,280 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 1: of death came down, well baseball death. Ind see what 232 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 1: is your knee jerk reaction on your knee jerk reaction 233 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 1: to the Nationals saying bye bye and firing Davy Martinez 234 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: the manager and the GM, Mike Rizzo, who really heroes 235 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 1: to us. You might remember they beat the cheating a 236 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 1: holes in a World Series years ago. Been many years 237 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 1: since then, So my reaction is what took so long? Right, 238 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 1: as far as the Nationals are concerned, the Nats have 239 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 1: been a hot mess. Now we don't talk about the Nationals. 240 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 1: Why would we, We want people to actually listen. But 241 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 1: the Nationals have been a hot mess, plain and simple. 242 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 1: They're so bad? How bad are they? Even ostrich Ant, 243 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 1: who lives in DC and drives a bus around the 244 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:43,440 Speaker 1: dcra he got a good job, right union job. He 245 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 1: won't even watch the Nationals. That's how much they sucked, right, 246 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 1: And you think about the Nationals, both these guys, Rizzo 247 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 1: and Martinez, the GM and the manager are past their 248 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: expiration date. And that World Series they won, while it 249 00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 1: was glorious and we enjoyed it, it was six years ago, 250 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 1: and the Nationals have been stumbling and bumbling the desert 251 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:10,400 Speaker 1: of mediocrity without any water ever since then? How bad 252 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 1: has it been? Since the high water mark the twenty 253 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: nineteen World Series, the miraculous World Series run the team 254 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 1: from the greater DC area, there has posted I believe 255 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 1: five straight losing seasons, and they are all but guaranteed 256 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 1: to have number six year and twenty twenty five. And 257 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 1: the Nationals Ballpark is not the factory of sadness. It's 258 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 1: the museum of misery, is what it is. They're watching 259 00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: the Nationals who have lost that two. They don't have 260 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: that natitude anymore. I don't know where it went. Davy 261 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 1: Martinez his comments, that's the big story here. He made 262 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:47,760 Speaker 1: some comments. We talked about them briefly on the show. 263 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 1: Davy Martinez defended his coaching staff with the Nationals. Now 264 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 1: to say that just ruffled some feathers, that's a bit 265 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 1: of an understatement. It's a bit of an understatement. He 266 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 1: actually apparently to the clubhouse, the softies in the Washington 267 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:07,160 Speaker 1: National Clubhouse. Not only are they bad baseball, they can't 268 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:12,880 Speaker 1: take criticism. Now again, Davy Martinez said, it's never on coaching, 269 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 1: he said at the time. Never, It's always on the players, 270 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 1: Davey Martinez said, And that is all she wrote. That 271 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 1: is all she wrote. Those cream puffs better known as 272 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 1: Nationals players the cream plus she changed her name from 273 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:33,879 Speaker 1: Nationals to creampuffs, looks like they ripped off a drug 274 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 1: stores logo anyway with the w there. So the Creampuff 275 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 1: players did not appreciate that Davey Martinez put the almighty 276 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 1: finger blame pointed that right in their direction, and so 277 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:50,680 Speaker 1: the players were shocked, dismayed, bewildered and could not handle it. 278 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 1: They were pissed off, and so he lost the clubous 279 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 1: Now Jim might Rizzo. We famously fought with him years 280 00:17:56,840 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 1: ago over the usage of Stephen Strassburg. Might remember the 281 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:05,359 Speaker 1: Nationals baby Steven Strasburg. So he could turn out to 282 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:09,879 Speaker 1: retire early anyway, they were saving him so his career 283 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 1: would be cut short. So he's been with the Nationals 284 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 1: for almost twenty years in the front office. He was 285 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:23,200 Speaker 1: also the general manager over the last almost almost twelve 286 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 1: full seasons. I think it was sometime in twenty thirteen, 287 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 1: and he survived several managers before Davey Martinez and him 288 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:34,119 Speaker 1: took their exit strategy there and won the World Series. 289 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 1: So you say a successful one. They did win the 290 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 1: World Series Cup. I think it was three NL East 291 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 1: titles under Mike Rizzo. But right now, when you know 292 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 1: your time's up, when you've been there for as long 293 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 1: as Rizzo's been there, and your baseball team is closer 294 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 1: to the Rockies than it is to a playoff spot, 295 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:56,720 Speaker 1: so good luck on that. And player development, well, none 296 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 1: of the guys the Nationals draft turned out to be 297 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 1: all that great. They got from the Padres for Juan Soto. 298 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 1: Those guys seem to know what they're doing. But they 299 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 1: to be fair, they do have a cheap owner. I 300 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 1: thought the national is gonna be sold a couple of 301 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,440 Speaker 1: years ago, and they haven't been sold the same ownership 302 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 1: groups there. It's been three years. I know, it takes 303 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 1: a long time to sell a multi billion dollar sports entity. 304 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,399 Speaker 1: It's been been a while, so they got cheap ownership, 305 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 1: but there's no excuse for the crappy product that is 306 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 1: on the field there. You know, even you know youa 307 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay and some of these other teams that don't 308 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:32,359 Speaker 1: spend money, they still put a team that's somewhat competitive 309 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 1: on the field. The Nationals are on pace to win 310 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:37,439 Speaker 1: sixty eight games, by the way this year, and they 311 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: have no pipeline. They need a plunger. The pipelines clogged there. 312 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: For the Nationals, it's an unstable franchise. See if that 313 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 1: Learner family finally sells the Nationals here. But man, so 314 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 1: they just gave the mass extermination to everyone. Now he's 315 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:58,120 Speaker 1: had a good job. Well, there's only thirty, right, there's 316 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:01,439 Speaker 1: only thirty baseball teams. Thirty two baseball teams, I think 317 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: it is. So there's there's not that many baseball teams. 318 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: So that's it, and they pay pretty well. And DC 319 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 1: A lot of people like living in DC. If you 320 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,680 Speaker 1: like hanging out with slimeball politicians and people like that, 321 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,920 Speaker 1: it's nice. I guess outside DC. I'm Virginia, Maryland, it's 322 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:19,879 Speaker 1: some nice plays to live anyway. It is the Ben 323 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,440 Speaker 1: Malor Show. You want to comment on any of that, 324 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 1: we are starting the new week. You can join us 325 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:29,360 Speaker 1: right now at eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox 326 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 1: eight seven seven nine nine six six three six nine. Now, 327 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 1: I don't expect I don't expect the Houston fans to 328 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 1: check in because I would hide too, because there's really 329 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 1: nothing you can say.

Now back to it. 378 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:29,480 Speaker 1: Back to it we go, and Jill writes in a 379 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 1: longtime supporter of the show, and she says, if I 380 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 1: have gotten over it, why can't you. I'm a Yankee fan. Now, Well, Jill, 381 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:43,919 Speaker 1: if you have forgiven the cheating a holes, that shows 382 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 1: a character flaw in you, Jill, it's a bad job 383 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,640 Speaker 1: by you. And to quote one of the great rallies 384 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 1: we see all the time every couple of years, right, 385 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 1: we see no justice, no peace. Well, there was no 386 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,680 Speaker 1: justice for what the a holes did. Major League Baseball 387 00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,880 Speaker 1: allowed them to get away with it. So I say, 388 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 1: no justice, no peace. And that's the way I choose 389 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,240 Speaker 1: to live, and I love it. Nature Boy writes and 390 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:09,160 Speaker 1: says the cheating little boy kept hitting homers for the 391 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 1: Astros this weekend. He also says Manford didn't have any 392 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 1: problem with the a holes. We need to just move on. 393 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:20,879 Speaker 1: Nothing to see here is what he said. That's pretty 394 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:24,400 Speaker 1: much what he did. Nature Boy says, if Altube's wife 395 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 1: is okay with cheating, we can forget about justice for 396 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 1: the Astros. Rob Manford approves it as well. Super Market 397 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 1: Steve writes in he says, I thought about calling in 398 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 1: tonight busting your balls about the Dodgers for getting swept 399 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 1: by the Astros. But seeing as my Yankees needed the 400 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 1: umpire's help to avoid another sweep against the match, I 401 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 1: think I'll shut up tonight. Sit that one out, Just 402 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:53,119 Speaker 1: sit that one out. Ostrich Ant is up late listening. 403 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 1: He says, Hey, Mallard, not only will I not watch 404 00:24:56,359 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 1: the Nationals, I also won't watch the Wizards. Don't blame me. 405 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:03,959 Speaker 1: You likely did not watch the team formerly known as 406 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:07,160 Speaker 1: the Redskins up until like last year when they finally 407 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 1: figured things out. Eugene in Chicago rights and says, what 408 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:15,120 Speaker 1: happened with the Dodger pitching staff? Pitching staff? They're they're 409 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 1: all hanging out on vacation, that schmuck Blake Snell. But 410 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:23,720 Speaker 1: who could have had the foresight, Eugene in Chicago, who 411 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:27,160 Speaker 1: could have had the ability to see into the future, 412 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 1: like the great Nostradamas and friend of Nostradinas, yours truly 413 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 1: to say, Well, maybe you don't add Blake Snell because 414 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 1: the guy's a loser. Okay, the guys a schmuck Blake Snell. 415 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:42,200 Speaker 1: He's made two starts this year. Blake Snell their big 416 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 1: offseason edition and their big addition the previous year a 417 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:50,119 Speaker 1: couple years back was Tyler glassnew who is the most 418 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:53,680 Speaker 1: appropriately named pitcher in baseball. The man is made out 419 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 1: of glass, and the Dodgers threw money. It's like they 420 00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 1: went to the strip club and they were just tossed, 421 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:04,440 Speaker 1: making it rain for these two dopes who have done 422 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:08,639 Speaker 1: nothing as Dodgers except take money from the Dodgers and 423 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:13,960 Speaker 1: not produce on the field. It's embarrassing, absolutely embarrassing. Terry 424 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 1: in England says, where are the classic A hole drops? 425 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,160 Speaker 1: What the f is going on? Why are they Bennetts 426 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 1: so blah blah blah blah. Well, I've tried. I've given up, Terry. 427 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:25,680 Speaker 1: I've tried to let them know what to play and 428 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 1: what not to play. They choose not to play it. 429 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 1: So I'm going to do the show the way I 430 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:30,719 Speaker 1: want to do the show without the drops. A Boso, 431 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 1: the district attorney, says, I wonder if the NAT's TV 432 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 1: deal expiring has something to do with the decision to 433 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:40,200 Speaker 1: clean house. Also, maybe they wouldn't be in the position 434 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:44,479 Speaker 1: if ownership let Rizzo keep Bryce Harper and Juan Soto 435 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:50,200 Speaker 1: years ago, says Boso, the district attorney. Aileen says, excellent monologue, 436 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 1: Never forget She points out who else we have? Matt 437 00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:56,639 Speaker 1: writes in can we get on the topic of how 438 00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:00,679 Speaker 1: Suzuki has been robbed in broad daylight? I have a 439 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 1: much deserved All Star reserve spot. I don't really give 440 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 1: that much attention to the All Star reserves because the 441 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 1: players don't care about the All Star Game. That's why 442 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 1: they had to put the rule in years ago. Or 443 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 1: this time it matters and other players hate the y'all. 444 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:20,640 Speaker 1: I'll bet you Clayton Kershaw. I'll give you an example, Matt, 445 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:23,400 Speaker 1: so that they now Major League Baseball announced I guess 446 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:25,879 Speaker 1: they've done this before, like the legends of the game. 447 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,720 Speaker 1: They add someone who's not deserving of being an All 448 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:32,400 Speaker 1: Star this year, but because of their career achievements, they 449 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 1: put them on the All Star team. And Clayton Kershaw 450 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:37,919 Speaker 1: is a great example of a guy who was so 451 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:40,919 Speaker 1: excited about being named to the All Star Team he 452 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 1: refused to speak to the media about it on Sunday, 453 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:47,439 Speaker 1: likely because I'm guessing he had a vacation planned for 454 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 1: All Star weekend and now he's got to bring his 455 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 1: fat ass to Atlanta instead of going to a nice 456 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:57,640 Speaker 1: tropical vacation somewhere. So that's just my assumption. Maybe Kershaw 457 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 1: was so verclemp with emotion. He did not want to 458 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:02,200 Speaker 1: talk about it. But my god, all let's go to 459 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:04,160 Speaker 1: the phones and let's see who do we have eeny 460 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:09,399 Speaker 1: meany miney mo. Let's say hello to Tony in the 461 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:11,680 Speaker 1: Bay area. What's going on? Tony?

Even kobeas she was like, God, damn. 464 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 1: No, thank you. Tony's a quick drive by, drop a 465 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 1: line and then and then move on. So I'm pretty 466 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:32,120 Speaker 1: sure now that the Dodgers are in Milwaukee right now. 467 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 1: They play the brew Crew this week, so I'm pretty 468 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 1: sure ifsay is not not listening, Oho, there's not much 469 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 1: open on a Sunday night in uh in Milwaukee. Having 470 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 1: been to Milwauk unless they changed it when I was 471 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 1: there years ago, not much open late at night. They 472 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 1: pretty much roll up Milwaukee at There's a couple of 473 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:54,960 Speaker 1: bars open, but that's that's about it. I want a 474 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:59,959 Speaker 1: bite to eat. Good luck. Malaprop guy says fer Dogs 475 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 1: seems to have gone missing for the last week or so. 476 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:07,640 Speaker 1: Right after it was announced that a man from Fortune 477 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 1: was arrested for selling illegal fireworks. I hain't even at fullertune. 478 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 1: Also perhaps a coincidence. He also disappeared about the same 479 00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 1: time live reads have ceased on the show, says Malard 480 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:25,080 Speaker 1: Propkat get to the bottom of that. Billy writes in 481 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:26,959 Speaker 1: from parts on O and he says, Blake Snell and 482 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 1: Tyler Glass, now we're only good in Tampa Bay because 483 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 1: of coaching. Now they can't pitch worth anything. Well, Blake 484 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 1: Snell's a He's known as being a very soft, very 485 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 1: soft pitcher and does not have intestinal fortitude to made 486 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 1: out of. I ain't pitch unless I get mine. 487 00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 4: Bro. 488 00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 1: That used to be a drop we used to play 489 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 1: on the show back when we had drops. Let's go 490 00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 1: to Andrew in Baker's what's going on? Andrew? Welcome? 491 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 3: What's up? Ben?

I understand. 505 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:36,479 Speaker 3: Okay, So number one, number one, Yes, number one. I 506 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 3: was wondering why you didn't have Clayton Kershaw as your 507 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 3: first hour monologue on the night that he got three 508 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:47,040 Speaker 3: thousand strikeouts. 509 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 1: Because I don't. I'm not. I don't care. That's I don't. 510 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 1: It doesn't do anything for me. I didn't get a 511 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 1: chubby like everyone else in the LA media. I mean, 512 00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 1: what do you want me to do? Don't you want 513 00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:59,600 Speaker 1: me to lie and pretend? Oh my god, this is 514 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 1: the greatest world. But I think of Clayton Kershaw, I 515 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 1: think of him writing the vomit comment in big games 516 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:06,959 Speaker 1: as a Dodger. That's what I think of Clayton Kershaw. 517 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 1: I don't think of three thousand strike it's a lifetime 518 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 1: achievement award. But when I think of the career of 519 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 1: Clayton Shirshaw, I think of him gagging in the biggest games. 520 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 1: That's what I think of Kershaw. 521 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 3: Well, maybe people were cheating in the. 522 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 1: Playoffs, Okay, Well, what about the rest of the years. 523 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:23,960 Speaker 1: Were they cheating? Every year Kershaw was pitching in the 524 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:26,480 Speaker 1: playoffs or is it I know twenty throw away twenty seventeen. 525 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 1: What about the other ones? 526 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 3: Okay, but I haven't know what about the other one? 527 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:32,880 Speaker 1: Seriously, what about the other ones? Everyone only when Kershaw 528 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:33,960 Speaker 1: was pitching they were cheating? 529 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:40,480 Speaker 3: Well they won in twenty twenty. So but number two, 530 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 3: you can't. I got to stick up for David Basset 531 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 3: and asking why. 532 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 1: Would you stick up with that? For assay, he's a 533 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 1: shill for the Dodgers. Why would you? Why would you 534 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:50,320 Speaker 1: stick up for Well? 535 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 3: Are you not just bitter because you got kicked out 536 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 3: of the stadium because all of the media for show? 537 00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:00,720 Speaker 1: He No, I was fighting with that. Say before that, 538 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: I think it's embarrassing for the Dodger pr Department. I've 539 00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:07,719 Speaker 1: said that they're frauds over there. But that's fine, Okay. 540 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 3: Well, he's alright with me as far as I can do. 541 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 1: Okay, So you liked him and they when he licks 542 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 1: the players toes, you enjoy that.

You enjoy that. 546 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:21,760 Speaker 3: I hadn't heard about that. 547 00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, all right, thank you, all right, I'm glad 548 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 1: you still suck as a call though your Femi writes 549 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 1: in from Chicago, says a Mallard a plus and a 550 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:34,240 Speaker 1: spicy tuna role on the opening mallar monologue, All Star 551 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 1: Game is a joke for robbing the Cubs superstar Suzuki. 552 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:42,959 Speaker 1: The entire NL lineup should be Cubs. We there you go, 553 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 1: Nature boy says, I say, never admitted that Blake Snell 554 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:51,080 Speaker 1: has been a bus so far? What a kiss astro? Yeah, 555 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:54,280 Speaker 1: now I know, and you heard that, nature boy. The 556 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:57,480 Speaker 1: most obvious thing to say is at this point, what 557 00:32:58,000 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 1: is it what we have to worry about today? And 558 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 1: we don't know what's gonna happen in the future, but 559 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 1: you worry about what has happened. And so as of 560 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 1: this moment, I asked. I was doing some local stuff 561 00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 1: LA local radio this week and we had had Schmuck 562 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 1: Vassa on Who's a dodger of propagandas and I was like, hey, listen, 563 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 1: I mean, just this guy's been a bust and he 564 00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:19,240 Speaker 1: would not admit it. Blake Snell a total bust. The 565 00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 1: most easiest thing you could possibly sell tell anyone is 566 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 1: that Blake Snell has been bad at his job because 567 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 1: he hasn't shown up. He's gone a wall. He's at 568 00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 1: the end of his problem. That's the thing is only 569 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 1: gonna get worse. Blake Snell's thirty two. Your athletic prime 570 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 1: ends at age thirty two. It's only gonna get worse. 571 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 1: He's made two starts as a Dodger. We are now 572 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:45,360 Speaker 1: into July.
