1 00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:02,160 Speaker 1: Just wanted to cook. 2 00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:09,840 Speaker 2: It's all, just want to talk, that's all. Welcome back, everybody, 3 00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:14,920 Speaker 2: Welcome back. It's interesting when you cover baseball every day 4 00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:19,360 Speaker 2: like I do, you start to notice trends, right, And 5 00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:23,120 Speaker 2: when the Yankees were losing, all the different radio shows, 6 00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:27,800 Speaker 2: all the different content creators MLB, everybody was trying to 7 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:31,120 Speaker 2: capitalize on it, putting out tons of Yankee stuff. And 8 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,919 Speaker 2: they won yesterday or the day before yesterday, and then 9 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 2: yesterday there's nothing, not a peep, right, So everybody goes silent. 10 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:42,279 Speaker 2: But those of us who live and die with this 11 00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:45,440 Speaker 2: team know that just because the Yankees won a game 12 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:48,320 Speaker 2: that the panic didn't stop. 13 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:48,720 Speaker 3: Right. 14 00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 2: We're still die hard fans and we still want this 15 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 2: team to compete much more thoroughly than they have been. 16 00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 2: So I'm sure a lot of you had the Yankees 17 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 2: on your mind yesterday. I did to listen. This is 18 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 2: a very big series against a team that has kicked 19 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 2: our asses over the last decade, going back to Masahiro 20 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 2: Tanaka's wild card game back in twenty fifteen. The Astros 21 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 2: have been our daddy, no doubt about it. Tip your cap, 22 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 2: call him your daddy. But the Yankees must summon whatever 23 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 2: pride they have left, whatever baseball fundamentals like dormant within 24 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,319 Speaker 2: their DNA. And they need to win this series, and 25 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 2: they need to win it convincingly. And it's not gonna 26 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 2: be easy because the Astros are such a damn good team. 27 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 2: Now they have not been playing great lately, but Alvarez 28 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 2: having a great year. I mean, you got Hunter Brown 29 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 2: pitching tonight, he's no joke. Hopefully the off day after 30 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:45,560 Speaker 2: the kind of win that they had the other night, 31 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 2: a tight game, Hopefully it relieved the pressure valve a 32 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 2: little bit. Hopefully the Yankees now have an established closer, 33 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 2: David Bednar, who seems like he's got just the right 34 00:01:56,120 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 2: mentality for that. And you know, if they they come 35 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 2: out tonight and they play well and they win a 36 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 2: game where they're underdogs, I think it could do a 37 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 2: lot for this team's confidence, right, you know, facing off 38 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:13,839 Speaker 2: against Hunter Brown, the Yankees are throwing a rookie who 39 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 2: is making his biggest start of his career. Cam Schlitzler, 40 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 2: who will talk about it and then I'll spotlight him. 41 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 2: You got Aaron Judge back, he's dhing. In fact, we 42 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 2: should take a look at the lineup real quick. So 43 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 2: you got Trent Grisham leading off. Trent Grisham has been 44 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 2: one of our more clutch hitters all year. We got 45 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 2: to talk more about that. Ben Rice batting second at 46 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:37,119 Speaker 2: first base, Aaron Judge in the d H spot batting third. 47 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 2: Still know John Carlow. I feel bad for him, but 48 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 2: he can't. He can't run. What do you want? What 49 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 2: do you want to do? He can't play the outfield. 50 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 2: Cody Bellinger is in right, Jazz Chisholm is at second base, 51 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 2: Jason Dominguez is in left field, Anthony Volpi is at shortstop, 52 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 2: Ryan McMahon is at third base, and Austin Wells is 53 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 2: behind the dish. Austin Wells low key been in disappointment 54 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 2: this year in my opinion. And Cam Schlittler on the mound, 55 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 2: who will talk more about that. We got a bunch 56 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 2: of voicemails to take. We got some comments on David 57 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 2: but Bednar, on Jazz Chisholm not running down the line. 58 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 2: We got some thoughts on house Steinbrenner and whether or 59 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,399 Speaker 2: not he would actually clean house if the Yankees get 60 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,920 Speaker 2: bounced or if they don't make the playoffs. Entirely, I 61 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 2: want to first talk about Cam Schlitler, though, because this 62 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,359 Speaker 2: is the guy that I'm looking forward to watching tonight. 63 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,639 Speaker 2: I love watching young pitchers pitch, especially when they have 64 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 2: one hundred mile an hour fastballs. Now he's made four 65 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 2: starts in the Major league so far, and you're seeing 66 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 2: the difference between major league and minor league hitters. Right 67 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 2: in the minor leagues he had a two point eight 68 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 2: two ERA, he was dominating. So far in the major 69 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 2: leagues four point five eight ERA. He is striking out 70 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 2: more than a batter per inning. He's got twenty one 71 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 2: strikeouts in nineteen and two thirds innings. But I think 72 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 2: he would tell you he is not thrilled with the 73 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 2: eleven walks. And I know that Yankees fans, along with 74 00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 2: Schlittler and the Yankees team, would prefer less than five 75 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 2: home runs in nineteen and through thirty seens. That's a 76 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 2: lot of home runs to give up. So clearly hitters 77 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 2: are attacking his fastball, which is pretty good. He averages 78 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 2: ninety seven point eight miles an hour with it. Now, 79 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 2: he's not qualified in terms of stat cast rankings, but 80 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 2: you can see some stuff, and obviously this stuff with 81 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:23,479 Speaker 2: more innings will round into a more steady position. One 82 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 2: start here or there can throw off these numbers, but 83 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:32,279 Speaker 2: so far, the fastball velocity is elite. The chase percentage, 84 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 2: fifth percentage, strikeout percentage all solid, the walk percentage not 85 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 2: where you want it to be, ground ball percentage below average. 86 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,040 Speaker 2: What surprises me is that he is six foot six. 87 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 2: I mean, this guy is a massive human being, but 88 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 2: his extension is still below league average. I expected him 89 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 2: when I looked at this page, I was like, I 90 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 2: bet his extension is top ten percent in the league 91 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:57,479 Speaker 2: at worst. That could be a thing where the Yankees 92 00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 2: might be able to improve. You know, if he's able 93 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 2: to get more extension with that fastball being as fast 94 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,040 Speaker 2: as it is, you get a little bit closer to 95 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 2: the plate. That gives the hitter a little bit less time. 96 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 2: Something I want to see from him tonight is throwing 97 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 2: that curveball more early in the count. I want to 98 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 2: see him get strikes like strike one with the curveball 99 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 2: and then use the fastball to pick up strike two 100 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,040 Speaker 2: or strike three, or use the slider for strike three. 101 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,919 Speaker 2: To me, the slider he's been trying to throw early 102 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 2: in the count is not a strike pitch. It is 103 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 2: a swing and mispitch when you're guarding against the fastball. 104 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 2: The curveball is not a swing and mispitch. It's something 105 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 2: that he doesn't have. You know that he can't throw consistently, 106 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 2: but he might. I've seen him drop it in for 107 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 2: a strike on numerous occasions. If he can dial that 108 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 2: in where he's dropping that curveball in early in the count, okay, 109 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 2: and then maybe get strike two with the fastball, strike three, 110 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 2: possibly either with a fastball or a slider. I think 111 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 2: he'll have more success, but I'm really looking forward to 112 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 2: seeing what he can do as his career develops. I 113 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 2: think he's he's the real deal. But again, you're seeing 114 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 2: the adjustment from the minor leagues to the major leagues. 115 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 2: Waski Polino says, we need that curveball to work today. Yes, 116 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 2: the secondary pitches for him have not been the best. 117 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 2: Joseph Bizarnik says, maybe the next Randy Johnson. He's not 118 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,919 Speaker 2: been or he's been not bad. Well, Randy Johnson was 119 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 2: four inches taller. I guarantee Randy Johnson's extension was like 120 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,359 Speaker 2: top one percent in baseball history, and he threw one 121 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 2: hundred miles an hour for a long time. Randy Johnson 122 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 2: couldn't control his pitches. It wasn't until later in his 123 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 2: career that become He became much more of a command pitcher. 124 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:46,600 Speaker 2: And that was when he learned to dial his fastball 125 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,159 Speaker 2: down a little bit. And that was, you know, dial 126 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 2: light down to ninety six, ninety seven, okay, and he 127 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 2: was able to control it and he had that wipeout slider. 128 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 2: Johnson's a Hall of Famer. I mean, he's a three 129 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 2: hundred game winner. Just to compare him to Cam Schlitzler 130 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,920 Speaker 2: is at this point absurd. But Schlitler does have that big, 131 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 2: tall frame right and pitch for pitchers that can be 132 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,560 Speaker 2: extremely useful. It's intimidating you get up there. You got 133 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:14,679 Speaker 2: this guy on a mound and he's also super tall. 134 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 2: It can you throwing from different angles. Now, one thing 135 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 2: that made Randy very difficult is that lefties he was 136 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 2: untouchable because he threw at like a three quarters angle 137 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 2: and so if you're in there as a lefty, he 138 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 2: was releasing the ball with his wingspan behind you and 139 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 2: basically throwing it into the strike zone. And you know, 140 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 2: the fast bow would have to come that way. But 141 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 2: then also the slider would sweep. So that's one thing 142 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 2: that made him just unhittable. And he just dominated lefties. 143 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 2: So you know, when Randy Johnson came to town, a 144 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 2: lot of lefties would sit. I always appreciated that Don 145 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 2: maddingly would continue to play. He was not afraid. All right, 146 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 2: let's take some voicemail here action. Here's a call. 147 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 1: Hey, Derek came from Miami for all you baseball fanatics, 148 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: highly suit. Yes, you watch MLB Central every morning, comes 149 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: on between ten and eleven am Eastern time. Mark Garosa, 150 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 1: who is coach of Team USA and hands down the 151 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 1: best baseball insider out there, here's his take on dead Nar. 152 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: I had him on my team. He wears his heart 153 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 1: on his sleeve, cares more about the team than himself, 154 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 1: just wants to win. You want this guy on your 155 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:37,559 Speaker 1: ball club? Heunds like a Yankee closer to me. 156 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 2: You'll love to hear it. I mean, just watching him, 157 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 2: I see a guy who's got better body language than 158 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 2: we've seen from Devin Williams, you know, and and Devin Williams. 159 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 2: I'm sure he's a nice guy. He's obviously got more 160 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 2: talent in his pinky than I have in my whole body. 161 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 2: But he's not a closer, especially not for the Yankees. 162 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 2: He doesn't have it. It's just obvious. He doesn't have 163 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 2: whatever it is that makes closers, you know, elite, where 164 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 2: it's it's more than stuff. There's like a certain gumption 165 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:11,839 Speaker 2: is almost the right word. That you got to have 166 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,959 Speaker 2: a swagger. He doesn't have that. He's he you could 167 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 2: tell he's just not confident. 168 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 4: Hey, Derek Teddimo from Brooklyn here, check this out. 169 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 5: Going forward, I would use a combination. 170 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 4: Of Devin Williams and Luke Weaver as an opener. 171 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 1: Now check this out. 172 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 2: That velocity and change up combination at the beginning of 173 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 2: the game would. 174 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: Be tough for anybody. 175 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 4: You could probably get four to four and a half 176 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 4: innings out of. 177 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 5: Those two guys. I would normally. 178 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 2: Start Williams because he had that airbender, but he has 179 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 2: sometimes losing the strike zone. 180 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 1: So I would start off with Weaver. 181 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 5: He can give you two, and then Williams could give 182 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 5: you two, and that that's better than a third. 183 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 1: That's like a third starter for us. What do you 184 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 1: think about that? 185 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 2: It's not the worst idea I've heard, Like, if you've 186 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 2: got to win a game, I mean, I would have 187 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 2: no problem pitching Devin Williams in the first inning, right. 188 00:09:58,200 --> 00:09:59,679 Speaker 2: I mean, he does walk a lot of guys, like 189 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 2: you said, but I don't think the pressure would get 190 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 2: to him in the first inning. And Luke Weaver, you know, 191 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 2: if he can go a couple of innings and then 192 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 2: the back end of the bullpen you got Bednar and 193 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 2: Dove All. I don't hate it in a spot like 194 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 2: rather than going to like let's say somebody gets hurt, 195 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 2: right and you got to go to you know, Alan 196 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,320 Speaker 2: Winen's or something, I would much rather see the scenario 197 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 2: that you put out there. Got a call here about Jazz. 198 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 3: Hey, Derek, I'm a longtime listener. My name is Daniel 199 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 3: from Connecticut. 200 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 6: I just want to share my observation of the lack 201 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 6: of hustle we've seen from Jazz lately. My dad likes 202 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 6: to hate on him for being too flashy and cocky, 203 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 6: but as a younger listener, I do like his celebrations 204 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,199 Speaker 6: and stuff. But something that I'll not. 205 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 3: Tolerate on the Yankees is jogging and just looking like 206 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 3: he doesn't want to be here. I mean, obviously we 207 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:54,559 Speaker 3: know Boone doesn't have the balls to bench him and 208 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 3: quite honestly, we can't afford the bench his back right now. 209 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 3: But this is just this is just bad. We're just 210 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,199 Speaker 3: free falling and a lack of hustle is. 211 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 6: Not going to help it. 212 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 2: Man. I appreciate the call. Yeah, I think Jazz is 213 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 2: one of those guys who you know, the seventy percent 214 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 2: approach actually works for him because it's going to keep 215 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 2: him healthy. He turns it on the speed when he 216 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 2: needs to. I haven't really noticed him not running down 217 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 2: the line that much in situations where it would matter. 218 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 2: I mean, he hits a ground ball to first base, 219 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,719 Speaker 2: he's not going to beat it out right, but typically 220 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 2: like out of the box, he's hustling. I feel like, 221 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 2: I don't know, I could be wrong on this. I 222 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 2: haven't really noticed it being a problem. And like I said, 223 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 2: I want him healthy and so Jazz at seventy percent, 224 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 2: if he has to just kind of take it easy 225 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 2: a little bit at times just to stay on the field, 226 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 2: I can live with that. It's like I don't want 227 00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 2: John Carlos sprinting right, Jazz tends to get hurt. Here 228 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 2: is Ray Kwan. 229 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 1: Hi, Derek, how you doing today? 230 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 5: This is Ray Kwan calling. I just want to say that, 231 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 5: even though we won the game last night on a 232 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 5: go ahead homer from Goldie, I still think that if 233 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 5: I'm how, you know, I need to say to myself, 234 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 5: if I want to get back to being on top, 235 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 5: getting back to having dynasties that you saw growing up, 236 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:36,199 Speaker 5: then as how, you have to you have to take 237 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,679 Speaker 5: a step back. You have to clean house. 238 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 1: I get it. 239 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 5: Cash has been around for damn near three decades, but 240 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 5: it's time for him to go, and. 241 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:47,959 Speaker 1: It's time for Boom. 242 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 2: I appreciate the call man, would how actually clean house? 243 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 2: I think if the Yankees missed the playoffs, there's a 244 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,960 Speaker 2: non zero chance that Boone has gone. I think Cashman 245 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 2: will be allowed to fish his contract and then retire 246 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 2: in his own way. But I don't trust Cashman to 247 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 2: hire the next manager, right, I mean, he's the one 248 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 2: who hired Bone. So anyway, let's do our weekend picks 249 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:20,319 Speaker 2: real quick, all right, So just a reminder to download 250 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 2: the Draftking sportsbook app and use the code foul. That's 251 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 2: code foul for new customers to get two hundred. It's 252 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 2: two hundred dollars. Now bet five bucks and you'll get 253 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,960 Speaker 2: two hundred dollars. In bonus bets only on DraftKings. The 254 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,959 Speaker 2: crown is yours, so check that out. And typically when 255 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 2: I make these predictions, I'll get a few of them, right, 256 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 2: I don't always get all of them. I don't think 257 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,839 Speaker 2: I've gotten all of them yet. Last weekend we had 258 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 2: we got several right. This week Aaron Judge back at 259 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 2: Yankee Stadium. I think he's gonna sit on a fastball 260 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,439 Speaker 2: away and I think he's gonna poke one into the 261 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 2: right field seats, maybe up into the right field bleachers 262 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 2: or the bullpen. I think he's going deep, and I 263 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 2: think he's doing it tonight, maybe even first at bat. 264 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:06,319 Speaker 2: He's been injured. The fans haven't seen him go deep 265 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:08,199 Speaker 2: in a while. He's got thirty seven home runs, he's 266 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 2: fallen behind in the home run chase. I think it's 267 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:15,080 Speaker 2: time for him to get hot again. Aaron Judge hitting 268 00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:18,320 Speaker 2: a home run this weekend is prediction number one. Prediction 269 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 2: number two. Cody Bellinger, who is in right field tonight 270 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 2: and protecting Aaron Judge in the line of batting fourth, 271 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 2: has been swinging the bat very well. Even in this 272 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 2: past series. I thought he hit some balls just right 273 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 2: on the screws I think he's still going to be 274 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 2: hot having a day off, He's still sniffing that big 275 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 2: contract after the season, especially if the Yankees kind of 276 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 2: fall out of it. It could be a situation where 277 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 2: he maybe takes advantage of, you know, a hot streak 278 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 2: and gets you know, there are times when if a 279 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 2: player is going to be a free agent and a 280 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 2: team has fallen out of it, they'll let that player 281 00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:00,560 Speaker 2: go to a contender just before September five. It's like 282 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 2: the waiver deadline. I think it's called anyway. They if 283 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 2: he continues to play well and the Yankees fall out 284 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 2: of it, that could be something. He could be somebody 285 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 2: that teams are interested in, and then you sign him 286 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 2: as a free agent. You don't have to offer the 287 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 2: qualifying offer. I would love to have Cody Bellinger back. 288 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 2: I think he's a really reliable player, great athlete, great defender, 289 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 2: clutch hitter. I want him back. Jason Domingez getting four 290 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 2: hits in the series, and I think he's gonna get 291 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 2: a couple of more stolen bases. He has been running 292 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 2: great on the bases. He stole a run the other day, 293 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 2: and Anthony Volpi I think is going deep in this series. 294 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 2: He had been red hot with the home runs, quietly 295 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 2: has headed up with the bat and I think he's 296 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 2: going deep in this series. In fact, maybe even tonight. 297 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 2: Look for the high fastball from Hunter Brown and if 298 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 2: he gets a good piece of it, he could go deep. 299 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 2: All right, let's do the boilerplate stuff from DraftKings and 300 00:15:58,640 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 2: then back to wrap it up. 301 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,880 Speaker 7: Gambling problem called one eight hundred gambler in New York 302 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 7: call eight seven seven eight Hope and Wyre text Hope 303 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 7: and wy in four six seven, three six nine in Connecticut. 304 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 7: Help is available for a problem gambling called eight eight 305 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 7: eight seven eight nine seven seven seven seven, or visit 306 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 7: CCPG dot org.

I think Ben Rich should 312 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 2: be our catcher and Paul Goldschmidt should be our first 313 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:40,160 Speaker 2: baseman for the foreseeable future. Because the combination of rice 314 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 2: and Goldschmidt, I think is more dangerous offensively than the 315 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 2: combination right now of Rice and Wells. And I get 316 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 2: that you've got a right handed pitcher on the mound, 317 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 2: But Goldshman's a professional hitter. He can hit righty's. I 318 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,280 Speaker 2: know his stats have not been as good against righties, 319 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 2: but I still trust him as a hitter. And Austin Wells, 320 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 2: let's just be honest, has been a disappointment this year. Yeah, 321 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 2: he's had some power, he's driven in some runs. He 322 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 2: just hasn't been consistent. And I trust Ben Rice as 323 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:07,639 Speaker 2: a hitter. I mean, I know that he's been a 324 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 2: little bit unlucky, but at least he consistently hits the 325 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:12,879 Speaker 2: ball hard and looks like a dangerous hitter. Let him catch, 326 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 2: Let him catch. Cal Rowley has proven that you can 327 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 2: put up good offensive numbers as a catcher. Let Ben 328 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 2: Rice try it, and then let Paul Goldschman get some 329 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:22,919 Speaker 2: more bats at first base. Let Austin Wells hit his 330 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 2: way into the lineup. Right, he has not hit enough 331 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 2: to be just granted the starting catcher job. I'm sorry, 332 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 2: And he's not that great defensively. He's a good framer. 333 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:34,720 Speaker 2: I can't name many other things he does well. He 334 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 2: doesn't seem like his head is totally in the game 335 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:41,479 Speaker 2: all the time. Anyway, Ryan McMahon, I think has done 336 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 2: a nice job. He isn't there at third base tonight. 337 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:46,159 Speaker 2: I enjoy watching him play defense. I feel like he 338 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:51,159 Speaker 2: has really solidified the third base spot defensively. He is 339 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:52,880 Speaker 2: not hit a home run yet. Is a Yankee watch 340 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:54,880 Speaker 2: for him to go deep this weekend too? He kind 341 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 2: of like my bonus pick. All right, final call here? 342 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 1: What's up to New York? Cash? 343 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 4: Mean, I was thinking about it other than we were 344 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:11,160 Speaker 4: playing the Marlin and then the Rangers. We traded for Jazzism. 345 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 4: We needed him, but we gave them Augustin Ramirez and 346 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 4: he kicked our ass. And we play the Rangers, traded 347 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 4: for Joey Galla. Oh Joey Gallo. It's nukes just that 348 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 4: drapes out every other fucking ap that. It's unbelievable. Cash 349 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 4: loves to get these guys that strike out every other 350 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 4: at that into a base ball single, steal, a bait double, 351 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 4: now home run, home run, home run. You look at 352 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 4: our lineup. Gassman hit demi home run thereon jone. 353 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 2: All right, I'm stopping, so I appreciate it. It goes on 354 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 2: for a while, not happy with Cashman and some of 355 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 2: the trades. It does sting to watch guys like hey, 356 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,920 Speaker 2: Zeus Ramirez come back and just you know, crush us 357 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 2: offensively like he did with the Marlins this weekend, and 358 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,479 Speaker 2: you know, guys like Josh Smith that we traded as 359 00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 2: part of the gallow deal tearing it up. It happened, 360 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 2: but definitely not a couple of the trades that Cashman 361 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:11,200 Speaker 2: will put in his highlight reel anyway. Willard says, no disrespect, 362 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:13,199 Speaker 2: but Yankees are lucky that you were done. Is in 363 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:15,239 Speaker 2: the lineup. You're one hundred percent right. I'm not going 364 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:20,160 Speaker 2: to disagree with you. Been having a great year. Dante says, 365 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 2: I missed your mister comment. I saw it. Your comment 366 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:25,879 Speaker 2: was about McMahon. I saw it after I mentioned it, 367 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 2: so I didn't read it. But Dante nostre Dante, who 368 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:32,920 Speaker 2: has had a number of correct predictions predicting mccannon, goes 369 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 2: deep in this series. All Right, ladies and gentlemen, I 370 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 2: will see you tonight after the game. Reminder, no TK, 371 00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 2: he's going to be back on Sunday. But I will 372 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 2: be back with you after the game tonight. Hopefully the 373 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:46,160 Speaker 2: Yankees can pick up a dub and hopefully Cam Schlitzler 374 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:50,640 Speaker 2: can get it done. I'll see you next time.
