1 00:00:01,400 --> 00:00:02,720 Speaker 1: It's going to pull up catch al. 2 00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:08,920 Speaker 2: How's it going to everybody? How's it going? I'm gonna 3 00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:10,559 Speaker 2: put my headphones on because we're gonna be taking some 4 00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:13,440 Speaker 2: voicemails today and I want to hear what you guys 5 00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:18,040 Speaker 2: have to say nice and clearly. But Yankees are not 6 00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:23,240 Speaker 2: in good shape right now. They are they well, they 7 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:25,639 Speaker 2: won yesterday, but they've lost three out of four. They're 8 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:28,800 Speaker 2: ten games above five hundred, but still in third place 9 00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:31,120 Speaker 2: in the East. They trail the Red Sox by a 10 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,239 Speaker 2: half game for the top wild card spot, and they 11 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:36,880 Speaker 2: do have seven straight games coming up against pretty awful 12 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:38,640 Speaker 2: teams and NAT's in the White Sox. That might be 13 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 2: enough to get their record to the point where you 14 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,040 Speaker 2: know they can be in a decent playoff position going 15 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:48,800 Speaker 2: into September. But I think anybody who's been watching this 16 00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 2: team closely knows that this team has a lot of problems, 17 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 2: a lot of problems. There's this old adage in baseball. 18 00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 2: I think it's true, good pitching beats good hitting most 19 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 2: of the time. It doesn't always work out that way, 20 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:06,639 Speaker 2: but most of the time, good pitching will stop good hitting, 21 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:10,320 Speaker 2: and especially stops home runs or at least at the 22 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,039 Speaker 2: very limit or at least at the or at least 23 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 2: limits it, right, It limits the number of home runs. 24 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 2: When the Yankees win, it's because they tend to hit 25 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 2: multiple home runs. Like last night they hit four home runs, 26 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 2: you know, and when you're facing good pitching, you're just 27 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:27,479 Speaker 2: not gonna hit multiple home runs all that often. And 28 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 2: we got a cat joining us for the show today, Duchess. 29 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:34,040 Speaker 2: Not only is it hard to hit home runs against 30 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 2: good pitching, but it's also difficult the string hits together 31 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 2: against high leverage, good relief arms. So if you get 32 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 2: a good starting pitcher on the mound who shuts you 33 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 2: down and keeps his team in the game, then you 34 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 2: got to face the top relief core, right, and so 35 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 2: it just becomes a very difficult game. So that's why 36 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 2: the Yankees are built to pummel these lousy pitchers, you know, 37 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 2: in the back end of the beat up on all 38 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 2: those teams, and then take your chance in running into 39 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 2: a big home run against you know, one of the 40 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 2: top flight pitchers or in the playoffs, for instance. And 41 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 2: I think that formula has now been proven to be faulty, right, 42 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 2: I mean, if you look at the results over the 43 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 2: last you know, twenty years really since they've been doing this, 44 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 2: really two thousand and five, I would say it's about 45 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 2: when they started to go for this philosophy, you know, 46 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 2: Murderer's Row plus canoe. Right, it was you know, you 47 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 2: had Giambi and sheff Field and a Roden. You know, 48 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 2: the talk of the team was how many home runs 49 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:43,239 Speaker 2: can they hit? And you know that's what it became 50 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 2: all about, and Cashman became obsessed with this. 51 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 3: You know. 52 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 2: It seems like what they've boiled their strategy down to 53 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 2: is invest in good pitching, try and limit other teams 54 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 2: hitting home runs, and try and hit as many home 55 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 2: runs as you can yourselves. Right. I wish it was 56 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:02,640 Speaker 2: more nuanced than that, but that seems to be what 57 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 2: the Yankee strategy is. I think they got pulled into 58 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 2: the fallacy that a walk is as good as a 59 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 2: hit because of the moneyball stuff on a spreadsheet. If 60 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 2: you can get to first base, it really doesn't matter 61 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,799 Speaker 2: how you got there. But anyone who has pitched can 62 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 2: tell you that if they walk somebody, they feel like 63 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:25,079 Speaker 2: it's their fault, you know. But if the opposition is 64 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 2: hitting you, you know, line drives in the gap, shots 65 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 2: down the line, a couple of balls in the seats, 66 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 2: it has a different feel. Doubts starts to creep into 67 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 2: your mind as a pitcher. Do they know what I'm throwing? 68 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 2: Am I tipping? Do I have the stuff to get 69 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 2: these guys out today? If you walk a guy, put 70 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 2: them on first base, your mentality as a pitcher is 71 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 2: I can make a pitcher, and I can get a 72 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 2: ground ball, maybe get a double play. But it's entirely 73 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 2: different if they're hitting ropes in the gap. And that's 74 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 2: why I've always felt like the difference between a walk 75 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 2: and a hit is more than just you know where 76 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 2: you end up, right, It's the feeling that it gives 77 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 2: the pitcher, but also, you know it can you know, 78 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 2: force the opposition to make plays, to throw to bases, 79 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 2: to you know, play solid defense, something the Yankees have 80 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 2: been forced to do and they haven't been able to do. 81 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 2: But the Yankees find it difficult to put together rallies 82 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 2: because they're not built to hit line drives. They're not 83 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 2: built with contact in mind. They're built to draw walks 84 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:34,040 Speaker 2: and hit home runs, perfectly acceptable strategy against weak teams 85 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,720 Speaker 2: and weak arms, But when you're facing the krem De 86 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 2: La crem it's not going to work out right. And 87 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 2: if you go back and even look at the one 88 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,479 Speaker 2: team that won in the last twenty years, the twenty 89 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 2: nine team. Yes they hit a lot of home runs, 90 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 2: but they also got a lot of hits. Almost everybody 91 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 2: on that team could make contact. You had Johnny Damon, 92 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 2: prototypical leadoff man. You had Jeter, great number two hitter, 93 00:04:56,120 --> 00:05:00,599 Speaker 2: bat control, speed, did all the little things made productive out. 94 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 2: You know, he was a pest thirty four hundred hits. 95 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:07,599 Speaker 2: In the middle of the order. You had a Rod 96 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 2: and Matt Suey, guys who drove in runs, but they 97 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 2: weren't home runner nothing hitters. They could drive in runs situationally. 98 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 2: You look at Matt Suie and how intelligent he was 99 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 2: as a hitter. Back in two thousand and three, his 100 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 2: first season in the major leagues, he drove in one 101 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 2: hundred and six runs, and I believe he only hit 102 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 2: sixteen home runs that year. That doesn't happen unless you're 103 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,599 Speaker 2: a good situational hitter. He also had Robinson Cano on 104 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:33,839 Speaker 2: that team, line drive machine. Yes he had power, but 105 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 2: he was a three hundred hitter. He had Nick Swisher 106 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 2: who would take his walks and work the count and 107 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 2: hit home runs. He was more aligned with what this 108 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 2: team is right now. I feel like we have a 109 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 2: team of Nick Swisher type of hitters, two forty two 110 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:48,919 Speaker 2: thirty hitters who have a little bit of power and 111 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 2: will work the count. But the point I'm trying to 112 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:57,160 Speaker 2: make is the Yankees that have focused the Yankees teams 113 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 2: that have focused on being power centric over the last 114 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:04,919 Speaker 2: couple of decades have not been as good as the 115 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 2: teams that were contact oriented. And I get it. The 116 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 2: game has changed. It's not as easy to hit for 117 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,600 Speaker 2: average anymore, which means you have to maximize other areas 118 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,280 Speaker 2: of your game. You have to hit home runs, but 119 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 2: you also have to steal bases. Yankees have been doing that, 120 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 2: but you also have to pitch and play defense. You 121 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 2: have to catch the ball, you have to throw the 122 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 2: right bases, you have to do all the fundamentally sound 123 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:30,480 Speaker 2: things that the Yankees just don't do. Cody Bellinger has 124 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 2: shown us what a real baseball player should be. Complete player. 125 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 2: Jose Cawbairo love him as a player. From what we've 126 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 2: seen so far, He's a complete player, does all the 127 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 2: little things well. He's a pest runs the base as well. 128 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 2: I want to see more of him at shortstop. He's 129 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,599 Speaker 2: gonna play shortstop tonight. He is in the lineup tonight 130 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 2: and Vopie is on the bench once again. Take a 131 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 2: look at the lineup real quick as we prepare for 132 00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 2: a game against the Nationals. Grisham leading off to home 133 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 2: runs last night, Ben Rice behind the dish tonight. Judge 134 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 2: the d H once again apparently thrown to the bases 135 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 2: quite a bit. But John Carlow on the bench, Cody 136 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 2: Bellinger in right field tonight, Jazz Chisholm at second. He 137 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 2: hit two home runs last night after the death of 138 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 2: his best friend. We heard about that after the game. 139 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 2: Jason Dominguez and left Ryan McMahon at third, Jose caw 140 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 2: Balio at shortstop, and Cam Schlitzler on the mound. I'm 141 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 2: looking forward to seeing what Cam Schlitzler did. He pitched 142 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 2: so fantastic his last time out, eighteen up, eighteen down. 143 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 2: A lot of times there can be a little bit 144 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 2: of a letdown when a pitcher comes out after that, 145 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 2: but the Nats are not a great team, so I 146 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 2: expect him to pitch well tonight at home. He's gonna 147 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 2: have the home crowd amped up. But Volpi out of 148 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 2: the lineup, sounds like he's gonna be back in there tomorrow. 149 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 2: He's getting a second day off in a row. John 150 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 2: Carlos Stanton out because he can't play the outfield couple 151 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 2: of days in a row because his legs are going 152 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 2: to fall off. But you ain't got no legs lutin today. 153 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 2: But we need to get Judge back out there in 154 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 2: right field pretty soon. All right, let's get to some 155 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 2: voicemails here. It's just a reaction. It's player development. 156 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 4: Hey, Derek, first time caller. I just wanted to talk 157 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 4: about our player development issues in the Yankees. You know, 158 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 4: we have these first round draft picks like Volpi Wells. 159 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 5: Uh. 160 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 4: You know, Do Mingez was another highly touted prospect, and 161 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 4: while it's Di Mingez his first full season, I feel 162 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 4: like he's not really showing what he was. 163 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 6: Set up to be. And Volpi and Wells seem to be. 164 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 4: Busts, while people like Ben Rice and Schlitzler seemed to 165 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 4: have a good future as MLB players. You know, I 166 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,440 Speaker 4: just see all these other teams and they have these 167 00:08:56,480 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 4: great young players, and I'm wondering what your thoughts are 168 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 4: on this is this a player development issue, a scouting issue. 169 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,239 Speaker 4: It seems like we only. 170 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:13,319 Speaker 7: End up buying these older players and. 171 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 4: We don't really get any great young players coming up. 172 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:17,199 Speaker 4: Would love to hear your thoughts. 173 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 2: Thanks, Well, there's multiple reasons for that one. The Yankees 174 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 2: don't draft very high because they almost always signed free 175 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 2: agents and they're almost always a playoff contender so they 176 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 2: draft near the end of the first round most of 177 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 2: the time. That's not a huge deal. I mean, you 178 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 2: can get good players. You know, they could have drafted 179 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 2: Gunner Henderson, they did draft Aaron Judge. You know, you 180 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 2: can get great players in the deeper rounds. They're just 181 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 2: not as sure things. You have to take some gambles. 182 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 2: Austin Wells, I think you're right. I think he's a bust. 183 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 2: Anthony Volpi clearly looks like a bust. But you know, 184 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 2: here's something to consider. Maybe don't call guys up who 185 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 2: are hitting two sixty two career in the minor leagues. 186 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 2: This is a guy who had a thousand at bats 187 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 2: in the minor leagues and he hit two sixty two. 188 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 2: Now eight to eighty one. Oh sure, but that's what 189 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 2: they're trying to develop is a guy who hits for 190 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 2: power and not a guy who makes contact. It always 191 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,559 Speaker 2: worries me when a minor league hitter, you know, doesn't 192 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 2: put up good numbers. You know, home runs come and go, 193 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,079 Speaker 2: but you got to be a consistent hitter to get 194 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,959 Speaker 2: to the big leagues. In my opinion, here's not the call. 195 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 6: Hey, Derek Matt from Denver again, you hit the nail 196 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 6: on the head on the last voicemail that I left 197 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 6: when I was completely out of breath. I was literally 198 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 6: in the middle of a workout. Sorry about that, Hey, 199 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 6: I wanted to. 200 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 8: Hear what you think about what my sort. 201 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:40,439 Speaker 3: Of ruminating assessment has been on the problems with the 202 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 3: Yantes recently. It seems to be what I like to 203 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 3: call arrogant ignorance. 204 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:48,199 Speaker 6: And what I mean by that is. 205 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 8: They're too stubborn and prideful in their arrogance to admit 206 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 8: the bad decisions they've made. Whether it's not sending Holty 207 00:10:57,679 --> 00:10:59,080 Speaker 8: down ever, even though. 208 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 3: He's historic over the last couple of years now not 209 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 3: then nearly as good as they said he was going 210 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 3: to be, and lead into a place of therefore ignorance 211 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 3: looking stupid. 212 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 8: What do you think about that, arrogant ignorance. 213 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 2: I think that's pretty close. I think you're the one 214 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 2: who hit the nail on the head this time. They 215 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:22,439 Speaker 2: seem to think that they can't be wrong just because 216 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 2: they're the Yankees, right, just because they have so much 217 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 2: money invested in all of these different people in the UH, 218 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 2: in the front office and in the organization, all these 219 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 2: analytics nerds, you know, employing MIT scientists to develop the 220 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 2: torpedo bat. How'd that work out? Worked out for a weekend? 221 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 2: I think you're I think you're onto something. They are 222 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:49,680 Speaker 2: a little bit arrogant, UH and clearly a little bit 223 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 2: ignorant about what's going on in the league. I would 224 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 2: have loved to have seen what that audit revealed, if 225 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:55,599 Speaker 2: it was a real audit. 226 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 7: Going on. Derek myself, like many other Yankees fans, are 227 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 7: not buying the last ditch effort, bailed out by two 228 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 7: home runs from Tism and Trenk Grishamich, finally breaking the losing. 229 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 8: Streak of eight games the Boston Red Sox. 230 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,839 Speaker 7: We're also devorless, mind you. I mean the team has 231 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 7: no spot. We could talk about this if we talk 232 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 7: about this stuff every year, I'm not even gonna get 233 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,840 Speaker 7: into the whole fire. Everybody is that it's not gonna happen. 234 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 7: It's just not gonna happen. We have to just accept 235 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,679 Speaker 7: that it's a very stubborn organization and they're run by 236 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,440 Speaker 7: just money hungry, greedy people. We don't have to accept 237 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 7: that nothing's changing. So I think the Yankee should just lease. 238 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 7: I mean, now you're gonna obviously try to win, but 239 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,680 Speaker 7: just next year, have some optimism because you're gonna have 240 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 7: right starting at first hopefully with Grisham or excuse the 241 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 7: souls gone, and then you're gonna be able to start 242 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 7: the mingo's every day they just met. That guy's developing 243 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 7: up totally this year since Grisham is gonna be gone. 244 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 7: So just you know, Yankees fans need to just, in 245 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,679 Speaker 7: my opinion, just forget about this year. It's it's you 246 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:53,319 Speaker 7: get into a wild card spot. 247 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 2: And go from there. 248 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 7: But like he we know it's not going anywhere, no 249 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 7: coal or anything, and just you know, hope next year 250 00:12:59,080 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 7: things change. 251 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:04,559 Speaker 2: Because appreciate the call. Next year is going to be 252 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,080 Speaker 2: interesting what they do because they've got Spencer Jones tearing 253 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 2: up the minor leagues right now, and you got to 254 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 2: either play him or trade him. I mean, he's clearly 255 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 2: too good for the minor leagues. At this point, he's 256 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 2: hitting over three hundred, he's got thirty two home runs. 257 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:19,680 Speaker 2: Dominguez I think has shown a lot of improvement this year. Defensively, 258 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:24,520 Speaker 2: he still is not good. He looks like a DH 259 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 2: to me. But he's twenty two. You know, it's too 260 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 2: early to give up on him. I think he's shown 261 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 2: some improvement from the right side. The power hasn't been 262 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 2: there like I thought it would be. And you're talking 263 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 2: about a guy who hit four home runs in his 264 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 2: first seven games in the major leagues as a twenty 265 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,719 Speaker 2: year old, now twenty two years old a couple of 266 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 2: years later, he's only got nine home runs over the 267 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 2: course of the first five months. He did hit three 268 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 2: of them in one game. Other than that, he has 269 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 2: not hit for a lot of power. But he also, 270 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 2: I think, is one of those guys who is a 271 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 2: good hitter, like I think he's going to be a 272 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 2: solid air because he'll take what the defense gives him. 273 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,199 Speaker 2: He'll take the ball the other way through the left side. 274 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 2: I think Dominga is I'm still optimistic that he's going 275 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 2: to be a good player. The outfield stuff worries me, 276 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 2: especially throwing to the wrong bases. You know, I think 277 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:14,960 Speaker 2: his routes will get better with REPS. I like his 278 00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 2: arm strength. Don't love the decisions out there trying to 279 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 2: catch balls. It needs to play on one hop, you know, 280 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 2: trying to throw to you know, get guys at third 281 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 2: when the play is to make it, you know, to 282 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 2: throw the second to stop the runner from getting in 283 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 2: a scoring position. That type of thing. So you know, 284 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 2: we'll see how it works out. 285 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 9: Roberto, Hey Derek, this is Roberto Calming from Houston, Texas. 286 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 9: I've been a Yankee fan since nineteen seventy five, Okay, 287 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 9: and I've seen I've seen everything, believe me. Well, this 288 00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 9: is you know, you know, things are bad when Wolpe 289 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 9: goes in to play defense late in the game. Things 290 00:14:57,960 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 9: are bad when Wolpe is playing defense. 291 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 6: So I gotta. 292 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 2: Say, you know, I think I think we've beat the 293 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 2: Volpi thing to death. I hope you just gets I 294 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 2: hope he improves, but he's been miserable. I don't know 295 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 2: how you can start next season counting on Volpi as 296 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 2: your shortstop. And Lombard's clearly not ready. You know, despite 297 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 2: being viewed as a top prospect, he's not having great 298 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 2: numbers in the minor leagues. And you know, defensively he 299 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 2: looks good from what I've seen, but offensively he's got 300 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 2: a long way to go. We got to call here 301 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 2: about the caliber of players. Let's see what this. 302 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 10: Is, hey, Derek, call him in from Manhattan. This Yankee 303 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 10: team has a lot of comparison to previous year Yankee teams. 304 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 10: They try to fill in positions with people that do 305 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 10: not play that position, and it's just the caliber of 306 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 10: player that they try to position him, Like right field 307 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 10: last year with Juan Soto, one of the best hitters 308 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 10: in all of baseball. But look around the diamond and 309 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:06,800 Speaker 10: it's just lackluster defensive personnel. 310 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 2: I'm not sure I totally agree anymore. I mean McCann 311 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 2: or McMahon. I keep saying that McMahon is a good 312 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 2: defensive third baseman, just can't hit. You know, Volpi's obviously 313 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 2: not a great shortstop right now, He's been better recently, Jazz. 314 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 2: You know, he came up as a second baseman. They've 315 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 2: moved him all over. I think if he had stayed 316 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 2: at second basemen, he'd be better. But my thing with 317 00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 2: Jazz is he tries to do too much. He tries 318 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 2: to make the impossible throw. It counts on his athleticism 319 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 2: a little bit too much. I'd agree that Ben Rice 320 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 2: not a good first baseman, but Goldsmith when he's out 321 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 2: there not bad. Gold Glover Judge obviously a good right fielder, 322 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 2: but not playing right field right now. And when you 323 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 2: put Stanton out there, obviously he doesn't have range in 324 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 2: center field doesn't get much better than Trent Grisham, and 325 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 2: left field obviously Dominge is in there for his bat. 326 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 2: You know, you deal with the growing pains. Bellinger when 327 00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,040 Speaker 2: he's out there is phenomenal as a defender. Bellinger and 328 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 2: right field tonight behind the dish. I mean, I'm not 329 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,119 Speaker 2: as impressed by Austin Wells as other people are, and 330 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 2: I don't think Ben Rice is very good at catching either. 331 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 2: He showed me some things, but you know, it's been 332 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 2: more bad than good in my opinion. So I don't 333 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 2: know so much. You got guys playing out of position 334 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:19,639 Speaker 2: as they're just not that great defender defenders, but we 335 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 2: do have some decent defenders on the team. 336 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 1: Pete from New Jersey. I just want to say that. 337 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 1: In my opinion, it looks to me from the outside 338 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 1: that the Yankeeas have a two fold problem. It's too 339 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 1: pronged a problem, and the prongs mix like ammonia and bleached. 340 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 1: So the first problem is there's too much familiarity. There's 341 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,679 Speaker 1: no separation of church and state with that team. Like 342 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 1: you pointed out, how too busy being friends with Cashman 343 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 1: and Cashman and I mean, god sakes, they give his 344 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: kid a show on yes for crying out loud, And 345 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 1: then you know the thing with Booon. You know, everybody's 346 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 1: buddy buddy, nicknames and all this thing. So there's no 347 00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 1: separation there to make hard decisions when they have to be. 348 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 1: And the second prong, the second problem is this team, 349 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,640 Speaker 1: the organization seems like it will not admit when they've 350 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 1: made a mistake and they're wrong about something. So that's 351 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 1: why I think Boon still has a job. 352 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 5: That's why I. 353 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 1: Think they're still tripling down on this home runs and 354 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:19,480 Speaker 1: launch angle crap that most teams have started abandoning now 355 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 1: when baseball became unwashable for a while. 356 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that you're right on it about them 357 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:28,439 Speaker 2: refusing to admit when they're wrong about things, and we 358 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 2: saw that. We saw that drag out far too long 359 00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:32,440 Speaker 2: with Josh Donaldson, which was a dumb trade in the 360 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 2: first place. Aaron Hicks they stuck with for a long time, 361 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 2: but you know they had them on a long term contract. 362 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 2: You know, Clint Frazier, Tyler Wade. They hang with guys 363 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,679 Speaker 2: way too long.

Derek finally got to win last night. 391 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,679 Speaker 12: That's felt good, but had to had to ask this question. 392 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:09,920 Speaker 12: Wanted to hear what you thought. 393 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 13: Do you think that the Yankees have made. 394 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 12: A mistake really by rushing Judge back from this most 395 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 12: recent injury. That's that's pretty much the question in the 396 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 12: thought process, being that he's obviously, if not the best 397 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:33,199 Speaker 12: player in the MLB Top three. Pretty much easy the 398 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:37,440 Speaker 12: guy's so dynamic that when he's when he's pretty close 399 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 12: to one hundred percent, that there's there's nobody that can 400 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 12: compete with them on this planet. Having said that, when 401 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,640 Speaker 12: we're rushing him back here, he's been pretty much a 402 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:50,719 Speaker 12: black hole in this lineup, going over almost nightly, a 403 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:56,439 Speaker 12: lot of not competitive at bats, striking out, expanding the zone, 404 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:58,640 Speaker 12: doing all these things. Because I don't know if. 405 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:00,360 Speaker 6: He's just trying to put the team on his. 406 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 12: Back or what, but it just doesn't look good. 407 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 3: Man. 408 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 13: It's been looking awful, and you kind of had a 409 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:09,640 Speaker 13: snapshot of it last night looking through the first couple 410 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,679 Speaker 13: months of the season really where he was hitting, you know, 411 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 13: four hundred or whatever, to see that average now just 412 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 13: steadily dropping night after night, almost down to three hundred, 413 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 13: but where he's got to be hitting closer to two hundred. 414 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:25,640 Speaker 13: Then over the last few months it's just been, Yeah. 415 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 2: He's hitting about two hundred since the All Star break. 416 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 2: He's clearly hurt. Was it a mistake to rush him back? 417 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 2: I don't know. I think it's one of those things 418 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:33,639 Speaker 2: where we got to wait a little bit longer. I 419 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:37,240 Speaker 2: think that he's not comfortable dhing right. He's a guy 420 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,439 Speaker 2: who likes to play the field. Dhing is not easy. 421 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 2: You know, we saw that. John Carlo hated it at first. 422 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 2: He's gotten better at it, but you know, I think 423 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,159 Speaker 2: that might be part of it. And also he's playing hurt, 424 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:51,240 Speaker 2: you know, so clearly favoring that arm, not really letting 425 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:51,640 Speaker 2: it rip. 426 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 5: I'd like to thank you for what you say about 427 00:21:56,000 --> 00:22:00,400 Speaker 5: the umpires is awful calling the ball and strikes. Next 428 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,399 Speaker 5: year when they put this challenge thing into effect, I 429 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 5: think they ought to take the ten percent or twenty 430 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 5: percent of the umpires who are overturned the most and 431 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,200 Speaker 5: just don't let them call balls and strikes anymore. That'll 432 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 5: make it easier. Okay, thanks, Hey, I love your show. 433 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,679 Speaker 2: Bye, I appreciate it, love your call. That's not a 434 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 2: bad idea, taking the umpires that are worse. Like there 435 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 2: was some organizations I forget who it was. Maybe it 436 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:26,439 Speaker 2: was like Rockefeller or something, or maybe it was Henry 437 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 2: Ford who would basically fire the bottom ten percent of 438 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,199 Speaker 2: workers every year. Now, not in favor of that, but 439 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,920 Speaker 2: if if someone is clearly not good at calling balls 440 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,960 Speaker 2: and strikes but they can, you know, be a field umpire, 441 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 2: why not do that? Why not just have the best 442 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,159 Speaker 2: homeplate umpires be the you know, homeplate umpires, and the 443 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:48,880 Speaker 2: best field umpires be the field umpires. I think that's 444 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 2: a good strategy rather than rotating. Right, Get guys used 445 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,439 Speaker 2: to doing the same thing every day, you know. I 446 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 2: like it all right, ladies and gentlemen, We'll see you 447 00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:58,720 Speaker 2: after the game tonight.
