1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:01,440 Speaker 1: I want to be in the field. I mean, I 2 00:00:01,480 --> 00:00:04,400 Speaker 1: feel like I'm too young to know just DH right now. 3 00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:07,880 Speaker 1: I want to use my athleticism to play defense wherever 4 00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:11,760 Speaker 1: that's in left or catching or first or another corner spot. 5 00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:19,120 Speaker 2: All right, guys, let's talk about the Athletics for just 6 00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:21,439 Speaker 2: a second. This is a team that I have to say, 7 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 2: despite all of the stuff that this club has to 8 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:27,400 Speaker 2: go through, I never hear the players themselves complain about anything. 9 00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:29,479 Speaker 2: It just seems like a strong group of guys that 10 00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:31,960 Speaker 2: is willing to do what they can with they have. 11 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:35,280 Speaker 2: And nobody knows that better than Tyler Soda Strong.

And Tyler, I 14 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:42,639 Speaker 2: was just talking to these guys about the fact that 15 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:46,960 Speaker 2: regardless of the situation that the Athletics are in front of, you, 16 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:50,240 Speaker 2: guys are a very tight knit group, it seems like anyway, 17 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 2: and you don't complain. Why is that? 18 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, thanks for having me on first and foremost. 19 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 1: But I think Cott's kind of sent the message last 20 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 1: year at the end of the season that no one's 21 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 1: going to really feel bad for us. They're just still 22 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: going to come into Sacramento and try and and try 23 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 1: and beat us. So we just kind of went in 24 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 1: with the mentality that you know, nobody cares. The situation 25 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 1: may not be the best, but you know, we we're 26 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 1: gonna make the best of it and make it our home. 27 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 3: So it's been good so far. 28 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:19,960 Speaker 4: Ty You were in Triple A last year for part 29 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 4: of the season. Now you're in a Triple A stadium. 30 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,080 Speaker 4: Come on, there's there's not even like any like good 31 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 4: Triple A Big League jokes that you guys have heard it. 32 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 4: You're like, I kind of feel like that one's a 33 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:30,039 Speaker 4: good one. 34 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 1: We definitely joke around like internally and stuff. But you know, 35 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 1: they they did a pretty good job. Everything's brand new. 36 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure the visiting the visiting teams have 37 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:44,399 Speaker 1: it worse than us, for sure, but you know, we've 38 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: made the most of it. We're enjoying sacks so far. 39 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 1: So I mean, it's definitely definitely good as a hitter, 40 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 1: you know, the balls flying, so we're enjoying it. 41 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 5: Hey, Tyler, I want to talk a little bit about 42 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 5: some some things that dove into since your third time around. Now, 43 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 5: very short sample size and a lot of people coming 44 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 5: into the season, nobody was talking about you, right, but 45 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 5: here you. 46 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 6: Come on the scene. 47 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 5: I mean, you know, not looking back, and when I 48 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 5: dove into the mechanics of it, a couple of things 49 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:16,920 Speaker 5: that I'm noticing a lot more balls elevated. You're barreling 50 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 5: up a lot of balls at a much higher percentage 51 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 5: the the uh you know, bat speed is essentially the same. 52 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 5: But and I'm not saying it's because Alana's on here today, 53 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,919 Speaker 5: but when I really dive even deeper, you have some 54 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,640 Speaker 5: O tiny esque things in your swing. 55 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 6: Is he somebody that you looked at? 56 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 5: What were some of the things that you went into 57 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 5: the off season saying that if I can lock in here, 58 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,359 Speaker 5: I can turn this power in my tools into something 59 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 5: special at the big league level. 60 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I mean I in the minor leagues. 61 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 1: You know, I didn't really struggle, and you know, I 62 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 1: kind of flew through the minors, power hit for average, 63 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 1: drove guys in and I got to the big leagues 64 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 1: and really, uh, you know, I just didn't work out 65 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: from her in the beginning, and I was still pretty young. 66 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: But you know, they're just pitching, pitching the corners, throwing 67 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 1: us off, and I just really wasn't able to adjust, 68 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: and I was missing the pitches in the zone because 69 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,359 Speaker 1: I was so kind of tied up. But I think 70 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: I just needed something that was pretty repeatable, pretty easy. 71 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 1: I've I've mentioned JJ Blade, you know, he kind of 72 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 1: went through the same thing as me. He kind of struggled, 73 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 1: came up and kind of put the foot down early 74 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: and kind of really helped him take off. So kind 75 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: of mentored after him a little bit, started playing around 76 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 1: with it kind of halfway through the season last year 77 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 1: and really kind of opened up his own for me. 78 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 1: I felt like I could see everything be on time 79 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 1: for everything kind of adjust. So yeah, it's been good 80 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 1: so far. 81 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 4: Tonight's starter, Sean Burke, You've had a dinger against him 82 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 4: in the show. Does that make your comp Do you 83 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 4: feel a difference in your confidence when you're facing a 84 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 4: dude that you've already hit a dinger against that you're like, okay, 85 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 4: And can you take that confidence into a dude like 86 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 4: the entire Mariners pitching starting rote where you're like okay, 87 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 4: like I gotta get after some of these guys. Or 88 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 4: does that, like this past, this past success not affect 89 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 4: your psyche going into a game. 90 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 3: That definitely helps. 91 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 1: I mean I feel like just overall, like seeing guys 92 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: the first time for the first time can be difficult, 93 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,479 Speaker 1: but once you kind of see guys more and more, 94 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: you know, you get more comfortable in the box. And 95 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: even I mean just having success against some even adds 96 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 1: to that. So yeah, I mean, we we just saw 97 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: these White Sox guys. We're gonna face the same three 98 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 1: starters that we did in Chicago coming off a sweep there, 99 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: so we're excited to just kind of build off that 100 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 1: and keep going. 101 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:39,719 Speaker 6: Yeah, I want to follow up right there. 102 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 5: Uh, you talk about Cots and one thing I stand 103 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,919 Speaker 5: on I always say the leader is the manager.

I know that your dad played 181 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 2: Speaking of coffee, a cup of coffee in the big leagues. 182 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 2: But did you have like, did you grow up in 183 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 2: a baseball family? I mean, were you always surrounded by it? 184 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 2: And was there ever a part of you that you 185 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 2: didn't want to play this game or was it just 186 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 2: ingrained in you that you were doing it now? 187 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 1: I was just ingrained to me, you know, ever since 188 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: I figured out my dad played, That's all I wanted 189 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: to do growing up. So you know, he he played, 190 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,559 Speaker 1: got two cups of coffee in ninety six and ninety 191 00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 1: eight with the Giants and he was a first rounder 192 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 1: out of Francis State, So you know, he's been through 193 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 1: it all. He's taught me what I know, and you know, 194 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 1: just growing up with my brother, just training with him, 195 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: and yeah, he's been in a big part of my 196 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: success for sure. 197 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 4: How did your dad talk about his career? Because AJ 198 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:56,679 Speaker 4: and I and Cam we had careers that lasted longer 199 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 4: than your dad's. Mine could have never been a big 200 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 4: league career. Cam and AJ they were definitely gonna be 201 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 4: big leaguers like they were first rounders. How did he 202 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 4: talk about his career? 203 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, he felt like he maybe left a 204 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:11,320 Speaker 1: little bit on the table, but he you know, he 205 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,559 Speaker 1: had a shoulder aneurism right when he got into pro 206 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 1: ball that kind of hindered his success rate. You know, 207 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,680 Speaker 1: he just couldn't really stay healthy. So you know, he 208 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 1: just always taught me to, you know, put in the 209 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: extra work and just never leave anything on the table 210 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:26,959 Speaker 1: because you know, this game can end quickly. 211 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:28,720 Speaker 3: So I think you kind of instilled that in me 212 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:29,199 Speaker 3: for sure. 213 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 6: Let's talk teammates real quick. 214 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 5: Now, you guys have a pretty young roster, right other 215 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 5: than the old head Luis Savarino over there, my teammate. 216 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:44,199 Speaker 5: What I've never been to a clubhouse that young, right, 217 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 5: Usually it's cards on the plane, it's some type something competitive. 218 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 5: But when you have a group that young, I know, 219 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,359 Speaker 5: some competitive stuff going on. One who's the most competitive 220 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 5: guy in the clubhouse? And two what do you guys 221 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 5: do I mean to kill time? When you talk about 222 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 5: having such a young group, like the fans need to note. 223 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, it's definitely a good, really good mix 224 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: of really young guys and some older, you know, veteran guys. 225 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 1: We we actually call ourselves YC, which is a young crew, 226 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: and then we refer to the older guys as OC. 227 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:19,719 Speaker 1: So TJ McFarland is kind of the head of that. 228 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 1: And then we got Lawrence Butler, who's you know, chirping 229 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: a lot. So it's a good friendly banter back and forth. 230 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 1: It's a good mix. Mean, we play cards, a lot 231 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:31,440 Speaker 1: of cards. I mean yeah, I mean we got two 232 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 1: card tables on the plane, so yeah, you know, we 233 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 1: make we make them, We make the most of it. 234 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 3: We have fun, for sure. 235 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 4: I guess Lulldog is Swaggy, right, He's the head swag 236 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,320 Speaker 4: Isn't there a second place? Is there somebody that's like 237 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 4: trying to catch him? 238 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 1: That's a tough one. I mean, he's just so out 239 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 1: there with everything. I mean he has two lockers. I 240 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 1: mean he has about six or seven different belts hanging 241 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 1: in the second locker, So I mean he's definitely the 242 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 1: leader in that department for sure. Seve's got a good 243 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 1: shoe game going for sure. A lot of a lot 244 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 1: of Jordan's in there. So I'd say Saevie's close second 245 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 1: with the shoes. But I think overall, you know, it 246 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 1: takes the takes number one easy. 247 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:17,960 Speaker 4: And I guess since law just got his contract so 248 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 4: he can he can spend it and flow on it 249 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 4: a little bit more too. What about we talk about 250 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 4: money and maybe there's no there's no gambling in baseball, 251 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 4: not saying you guys were gambling, but did you guys 252 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:33,200 Speaker 4: have a pool of when Jacob Wilson was actually going 253 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 4: to get to a three ball count, let. 254 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 6: Alone a walk, Because I saw the. 255 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 4: Reaction in the dugout and everyone was like, yeah, so 256 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 4: you guys were clearly paying attention. 257 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 1: Yes, we were paying attention for sure. No no money 258 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 1: pool put together for that. But we're giving him crap 259 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 1: every day for sure. But you know, he's he's a 260 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 1: great hitter man, He's We're constantly amazed if we're just 261 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: sitting back watch him and dug out, just watch him 262 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,319 Speaker 1: bang balls with the right side and up the middle. 263 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 1: So it's pretty special to watch. But yeah, well we 264 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: were on him pretty good for sure, no doubt. 265 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:14,319 Speaker 4: No doubt. What about uh? What about his what about 266 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 4: his the fact that he doesn't have as much power 267 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,840 Speaker 4: as you do? You give him a hard time? Like 268 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 4: are you guys like does he even hit on the 269 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 4: field because he watches he watches Rook, he watches you, 270 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 4: he watches Wall He now now Kurts is up, Like 271 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 4: do you give you guys give him a hard time 272 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 4: and go, hey, the singles guys, they go hitting the 273 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 4: cage for BP. 274 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he's kind of done a good job 275 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 1: of embracing that. We we definitely do give him a 276 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 1: little slack for that. You know in BP, when he 277 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 1: when he gets one out down the left field line, 278 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 1: you know, everyone's putting their hands up cheering. So he 279 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,839 Speaker 1: gets it a little bit, but he embraces it. I mean, 280 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 1: you watch his BP. He doesn't hit a ball on 281 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 1: the left side of second base still about the third round. 282 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 1: So uh, but he's got some power and then he'll 283 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 1: sneak a couple a couple out down the left field 284 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,679 Speaker 1: line here and hopefully you can in about five or 285 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: ten I think is his number. 286 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 4: Okay, that's fair. A couple of power swings. Five to 287 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 4: ten power swings. Maybe he just needs a torpedo bat 288 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:17,200 Speaker 4: or something like that, you know, something, some kind of gimmick. Anyway, 289 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 4: he's hitting a million, so don't change it. Tell him 290 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 4: not to change a thing. Every once in a while, 291 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:25,560 Speaker 4: actually all the time. There's a home run hit at 292 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 4: Sacramento at Sutter Field, when it goes to left center, 293 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 4: I see a batting cage out there. Do you guys 294 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 4: have an outdoor batting cage at a big league stadium? 295 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 4: And is that gonna be problematic when it's one hundred 296 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 4: and ten in Sacramento. 297 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 1: So we have two tunnels that are endoor, are actually 298 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: pretty nice. I'm not sure what the visiting tunnel is. 299 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:52,719 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure it's indoors. I haven't done a whole 300 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:57,439 Speaker 1: lot exploring over there, but you know, when it gets hot, 301 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 1: I'm sure there'll be some problem that arise.
