1 00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:11,520 Speaker 1: All right here he is, Ken Rosendahl, our senior citizen insider. 2 00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:12,840 Speaker 1: That is welcome. 3 00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:13,080 Speaker 2: Ken. 4 00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:14,760 Speaker 1: I haven't seen you since. I haven't seen you since 5 00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:17,000 Speaker 1: the All Star Game, the All Star Break where you 6 00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:20,239 Speaker 1: graced us with your presence on set. I just want 7 00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:21,960 Speaker 1: to know, for the people out there that don't understand, 8 00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:23,599 Speaker 1: what time do you need to be done? 9 00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 3: Ken? 10 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:27,040 Speaker 1: Because I have never seen someone so worried about an 11 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:30,120 Speaker 1: exact time just to go eat a salad. 12 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:36,960 Speaker 4: That is a gross misatorization characterization of what that was. 13 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,519 Speaker 4: And also I'm not a senior citizen just yet getting closer, 14 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:42,920 Speaker 4: I get it, But aj, would you like to talk 15 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,519 Speaker 4: about anything factual today where you just like to engage 16 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 4: in some of your personal myths. 17 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,200 Speaker 1: They're not missed. I saw you, I saw that Caesar 18 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,120 Speaker 1: you ate Ken. It's not my fault that you were hungry, 19 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:57,880 Speaker 1: uh going? All right, KeNH let's get into it. Ady 20 00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 1: Rushman on the Io, you wrote a column about being 21 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 1: trade possibilities. He was the one of the ones listed. 22 00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 1: How does this hurt him and the Orioles? And then 23 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,319 Speaker 1: what are the other catchers that are possibilities of being traded? 24 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:10,480 Speaker 1: Because there's some teams out there, maybe the White Sox 25 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 1: with Kyle Teo. We don't know how hurt he is 26 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: after last night. 27 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,319 Speaker 4: Well, I wrote about three all star catchers and Rushman 28 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,120 Speaker 4: was one of them, Shay Langeleiers was another, and then 29 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 4: Hunter Goodman of course being the third, and just the 30 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 4: chances of them being traded. Now. The reason I wrote 31 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,319 Speaker 4: this was because a lot of people are speculating that 32 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 4: with the Yankees in need of a catcher, they're gonna 33 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 4: go after these guys, and people just list names this 34 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 4: time of year. Hey, here are the catchers are gonna 35 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 4: be available? Well, in each circumstance, they're not necessarily available 36 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 4: and not likely available. And I'll start with Rushman. So 37 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 4: here's a guy who now has been on the IL 38 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 4: five times in less than four hundred days, right, a 39 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 4: little more than a year, and that's not good. This 40 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 4: will likely take him to the deadline or past the deadline. 41 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 4: The Oils have played batter they've won seven of eight, 42 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 4: so they're not going to be as inclined to sell 43 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 4: just to this moment anyway. But the real issue with 44 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 4: Rushman is that he is a free agent after next year, 45 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 4: the lockout year, and when you're the Orioles you probably 46 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 4: have one of two choices. Well, you do have one 47 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 4: of two choices. You sign him to an extension or 48 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 4: you trade him. It might be that neither happens. It 49 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 4: might be that they don't get an extension done because 50 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 4: he's this close to free agency. And it might be 51 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:31,639 Speaker 4: also more logically, even they don't trade him, not now, 52 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,239 Speaker 4: because he's injured, and also because they seem to be 53 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 4: somewhat in the race. They are in the race, so 54 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,519 Speaker 4: he's not going to go. I wouldn't think unless the 55 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 4: team is willing to take a chance on a guy 56 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 4: who's been on the IL three times this year already. 57 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 4: But then the question becomes, Okay, what is his future 58 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 4: with the Orioles. The president Baseball Operations, Michaelias has said 59 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 4: he wants Adley Rushman to be an Oriole forever. Well, 60 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 4: there's a way to get that done, and it's by 61 00:02:58,520 --> 00:02:59,679 Speaker 4: sounding him to an extension. 62 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 3: These three guys, they're all all stars, they're all kind 63 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 3: of pushing themselves in different directions. Is there a chance 64 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 3: that at this time of year teams go exactly what 65 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 3: Michael Liah said, like we want him forever? He says no, 66 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:20,360 Speaker 3: and then the trades start happening or is it just eh, 67 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:24,919 Speaker 3: we'll see and then maybe obviously it's all value but extension. No, 68 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:26,679 Speaker 3: then we're gonna trade you. 69 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,519 Speaker 4: Eric at the All Star break, I actually thought that 70 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 4: would be the case with Rushman, and for the reasons 71 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 4: sort of that, I just stated that he's coming toward 72 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:38,839 Speaker 4: the end of his service with them. It's a year 73 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 4: plus remaining, and they weren't at the time looking like 74 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 4: a team that was going to be in contention. So 75 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 4: if you're not in contention, you tried the extension. If 76 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 4: he doesn't take the extension, then maybe you trade him 77 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 4: with them in contention with them now, with him now hurt, 78 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 4: it's a different equation. Now Langeliers is in a different circumstance, 79 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 4: two years of control remaining past this one, and the 80 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 4: A's want to keep momentum going. Now obviously they've lost 81 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 4: momentum again, They've lost fifteen of seventeen, seventeen of nineteen, 82 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 4: have lost track. And you would say, perhaps, well, he's 83 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 4: a Scott Boris client, he's probably not signing an extension. 84 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 4: Why not just move him. Well, for one thing, they 85 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 4: don't have much depth in their system at Catcher for another, 86 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 4: And this is maybe more important, they're opening that new 87 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 4: ballpark in Las Vegas scheduled in twenty twenty eight. That 88 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 4: would be Langalier's last year with the team. They want 89 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 4: to go into that ballpark with a contending club. It's 90 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,160 Speaker 4: hard to see right now, but they're playing at that 91 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 4: minor league ballpark, which is Coresfield West, and by twenty 92 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 4: twenty eight maybe it'll be in a better place. That's 93 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 4: their intention, So trading Langoliers to them doesn't make a 94 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 4: lot of sense right now. Now. The caveat always with 95 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 4: these guys, with anybody is make a good enough offerer. 96 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 4: You can get the player with Hunter Goodman, and that's 97 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 4: the case as well. What the Rockies are trying to 98 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 4: do is figure out, okay, which guys who are here 99 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 4: right now will be part of our next ninety win team. 100 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:12,600 Speaker 4: And you might think, ah, the Rockies I never went 101 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 4: in ninety games. No, they're going to in ninety games 102 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,840 Speaker 4: at some point, and they're under new management now, Paul 103 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,359 Speaker 4: de Podesta and Josh Burns, and they want to build 104 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 4: toward that. So is Goodman or should he be a 105 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 4: part of that? With three years of control remaining, you 106 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 4: would think that within those three years, they should be 107 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 4: making progress toward ninety wins. At the same time, if 108 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:36,480 Speaker 4: you can get an offer where you get multiple pieces back, 109 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 4: that could help accelerate that timeline or make it easier 110 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:43,039 Speaker 4: to get to you consider it. I don't expect it 111 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 4: to happen. Hundred Goodman's having an amazing year has a 112 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 4: lot of value to the Rockies, but it's certainly something 113 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 4: that I'm sure why no, they're getting inquiries on what 114 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 4: if you can actually have it all? 115 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 5: And I'm talking about mint Mobile taking the premium wire 116 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 5: lists bouginess crats, but then bringing it to the transparency 117 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 5: in pricing and the affordability in pricing. 118 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 3: They're going to lay everything out there with a cheap 119 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,720 Speaker 3: bill that you know what everybody can handle right now. 120 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,559 Speaker 5: You can even bring your current phone and your number. 121 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,280 Speaker 5: If you're thinking about it and you're like, I'm worried 122 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:21,039 Speaker 5: about that, No worries. They have you covered because they're 123 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 5: able to convert people all the time to the Mintmobile way. 124 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 5: Go to mintmobile dot com slash territory.

Plan required fifteen dollars 131 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 5: per month equivalent taxes and fees extra initial plan term 132 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 5: only greater than fifty gigabytes may slow when network is busy. 133 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 5: Includes up to twenty gigabyte hotspot capable device required availability, 134 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 5: speed and coverage varies see mintmobile dot com. 135 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 1: Right. 136 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,039 Speaker 3: The Yankees have been a team that have been connected 137 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 3: to right and Jeffers because they want right handed hitting catching. 138 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 3: They're both the two guys. Goodman and Shay Langliers are 139 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 3: both right handed hitting. But none of those three Jeffers, 140 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 3: Goodman or Sang Langliers received very well. And that's what 141 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 3: the Yankees value. Are there other teams that are looking 142 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 3: for this type of catcher, an all star type of 143 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 3: hitting catcher that is okay overlooking just the average receiving numbers. 144 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 4: The Rays are looking for a catcher. They've been looking 145 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 4: for a catcher ever since they didn't draft Buster Posey 146 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 4: in two thousand and eight or whatever it was. They've 147 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 4: had some catchers over the years. Anito was one that 148 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 4: were good for a time, but it's really been a 149 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 4: black hole for them. That's one team, and the Dodgers, 150 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 4: I don't expect that they would go for a number 151 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 4: one type catcher, but with Smith out Will Smith, they 152 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 4: might look for a complementary piece to Dalton Rushing. Now, 153 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 4: when you mentioned the framing and the receiving aspect of it, yes, 154 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 4: all teams factor that in. Now in the Yankees case, 155 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 4: they've got a catching coach Tanner Swanson, who is highly regarded, 156 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:07,679 Speaker 4: who does really good work with catchers, who has worked 157 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 4: with Jeffers before he was in Minnesota. So there is 158 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 4: some connection there. And there's also the possibility that with 159 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:19,200 Speaker 4: different voices in a guy's ear, he might do things 160 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 4: a little bit differently and improve his receiving aspect. You 161 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 4: might say, well, wait a second, these guys are in 162 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 4: the big leagues, are not changing that much. We see 163 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 4: big leaguers change all the time, and we see them 164 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 4: improved in the big leagues all the time, So it's 165 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 4: not impossible, all right. 166 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:36,959 Speaker 1: I just want to know, Ken, if you had to 167 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 1: rank these three in the most likely to be traded, 168 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 1: because none of these three to me seem like would 169 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 1: be god retchmen to me would be one, just because 170 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 1: they have Asio already there, but the Rockies don't have 171 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 1: another catcher. The A's don't really have another catcher that's 172 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,680 Speaker 1: there and already established and ready to go. So would 173 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: it be Richman one, Goodman two, Langelier's three? Or is there? 174 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 1: Am I wrong here? 175 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 4: Angie? I wouldn't even venture a ranking at this point 176 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 4: because frankly, I don't believe any any of them is 177 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 4: getting traded at this deadline. Now in the offseason, with Rushman, 178 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 4: with the lockout looming, maybe then that becomes a more 179 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 4: serious conversation, depending upon how the Orioles finished, and the 180 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,719 Speaker 4: other two guys I don't expect will be traded at all. 181 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 4: I don't know that any team will meet the price 182 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 4: of the respective clubs that they would have to do 183 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 4: to get either one of those players, So I wouldn't 184 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 4: rank them. I would say all or unlikely, which is 185 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 4: kind of why I wrote it, so people can look 186 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,120 Speaker 4: at this and say, WHOA, Maybe the Yankees aren't getting 187 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,720 Speaker 4: those guys. Maybe the Rays aren't getting those guys. It's 188 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 4: going to have to be others. 189 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 3: All right, Let's go to the national leagues where the 190 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:49,440 Speaker 3: Braves are fighting off the Phillies keeping them at bay. 191 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 3: Whatever it is, where's their focus going to be at 192 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 3: this trade deadline? Because you will look at the team 193 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:56,679 Speaker 3: and you say, there's a few holes to a really 194 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 3: good team that could make them an elite team. 195 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,960 Speaker 4: It's funny. Eric friday I wrote and reported that the 196 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 4: Braves focus at that time was offense. They were concerned 197 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 4: about their offensive consistency over several weeks, and while starting 198 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 4: pitching certainly has been in need. Going back to the 199 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,439 Speaker 4: off season, they felt that they had a number of 200 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 4: internal options, guys coming back on rehabilitation assignments, things like that, 201 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 4: where they would have choices. They still might, but it 202 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 4: still seems to me, as it has seemed from spring training, 203 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 4: they need a starter capable of starting a playoff game. 204 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 4: Alexandthopolis listed that as their number one need in the 205 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 4: offseason and never addressed. It still hasn't addressed. It still 206 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 4: seems to me that's a big need. Their offense right 207 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 4: now is in a better place. Austin Riley has finally 208 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:53,560 Speaker 4: come alive here, Acuna is coming back, so I would 209 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 4: think their focus has to be pitching despite what I 210 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 4: was told last week and despite what I wrote, it 211 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,719 Speaker 4: just seemed to me that Bryce Elder pitched better last night. 212 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 4: That was good. But they got to keep this going. 213 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: Oh, the Phillies are right on their tails, Kenny, so 214 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 1: they got to win every game. The Phillies have been 215 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:13,839 Speaker 1: playing really well. They beat the Dodgers last night and 216 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 1: they've they've closed that gap down. So it's gonna be interesting, 217 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 1: which is good. Good for the game, not good if 218 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 1: you're a Braves fan. If you're Claudia, she's a little 219 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 1: bit panicked because the Braves might be in trouble. But 220 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,679 Speaker 1: there was another team we thought was dead and buried, 221 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: the Red Sox, not that long ago. Here they are, Kenny, 222 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:31,199 Speaker 1: fourteen game winning streak. You have no athletics, big board, 223 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 1: Wilson controller Sonny Gray were in the top ten most 224 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 1: likely to be traded. Has this changed their mind and 225 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: now they're gonna be buyers? 226 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 4: I would say it's definitely changing their mind. Now things 227 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 4: can change still over the next eleven or twelve days, 228 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 4: and the Red Sox could go the other way again, 229 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:48,719 Speaker 4: though it certainly doesn't look like at this point they're 230 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 4: gonna lose another game. The rest of the season. But 231 00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 4: I would expect, yes, at this point, that they will 232 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 4: buy and not sell. They could do a little of both, 233 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 4: but Sonny Gray's been crucial to what they've done, and 234 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 4: Wilson Contra I don't know that he was ever really 235 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 4: a serious trade candidate. He has another year left and 236 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 4: he's been such a huge part of their offense and 237 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 4: really their overall team chemistry. So I do see them buying, 238 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 4: and what the need is is clear. It's offense, it's 239 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,079 Speaker 4: a right handed bat, and I know they're scoring now 240 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,680 Speaker 4: and they're playing much better. And for all of us, 241 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 4: including myself, who were very critical of their president of 242 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 4: baseball Operations or their chief baseball officer, Craig Breslow, what 243 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 4: is happening with them is kind of the way he 244 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 4: laid it out in certain respects. They're getting great pitching 245 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 4: and Suarez not coming off the il tonight but perhaps tomorrow. 246 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 4: He's been a part of that. Of course, they've got 247 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:44,319 Speaker 4: the young kids that they've developed themselves, and even without 248 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:47,680 Speaker 4: Crochet they're starting. Pitching has been an absolute strength, and 249 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 4: it's enabled them to build a foundation for this pitching 250 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,680 Speaker 4: defense thing that they were trying to do. So great 251 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,079 Speaker 4: for the Red Sox. It's good to see Fenway alive again, 252 00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 4: and it's cool to see this whole thing turn around. 253 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 4: And it's just proof again. Aj. We talk and we 254 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 4: talk and we talk, and I write and I write 255 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 4: and I write, and a lot of times I'll be honest, 256 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 4: I evidently don't know what I'm talking about. 257 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 3: Well, I'm actually gonna bring up one of the things 258 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 3: you said on our show was Craig Breslow, because of 259 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 3: some of the things have gone on, might be on 260 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 3: the hot seat. Now does he act like a GM 261 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 3: that's on the hot seat? You talked about Dana Brown 262 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 3: possibly on the hot seat, so he could be very 263 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 3: aggressive in making moves, even though Jim Crane hamstrung him. 264 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 3: Could Craig Breslow will be all of a sudden, this 265 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 3: GM that's gonna move like a GM on the hot 266 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 3: seat and be this Dave Dombrowski that we want to see. 267 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 4: Eric. Gms don't often operate as if they're on the 268 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 4: hot seat. And what I mean by that is the 269 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,199 Speaker 4: way they go about it and the lip service they 270 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 4: give anyway, is that they're trying to do at all 271 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 4: times what's best for the organization, and if they do 272 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 4: that and things work out, then okay, they'll be safe. 273 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 4: Expect Reslo to operate differently because of what's been written 274 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 4: said about him, because of Sam Kennedy, their team president, 275 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 4: calling the team's play and embarrassment last month. What I 276 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 4: expect is him to do what he thinks is best. 277 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 4: Same with Michael Elias in Baltimore. Now, what they end 278 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 4: up doing might not turn out to be what's best, 279 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 4: and it might turn out to be a mistaken who knows, 280 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 4: also might turn out to be great. But generally speaking, 281 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,760 Speaker 4: guys don't try to save their jobs at the deadline. 282 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 4: That's not how they work, and it's a credit to 283 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 4: them actually, because they know what they have to do 284 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 4: is keep the organization's best interests in mind. I know 285 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 4: there are exceptions to this. I'm sure there are over 286 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 4: the years, but generally speaking, I don't see GM's presidents 287 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 4: of Baseball operations chief baseball officers operating like that. 288 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 5: Hey, for the families out there looking for a new 289 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 5: path to help your child succeed, take a look at 290 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 5: K twelve Powered Schools.

A couple of teams I want to ask you about. 308 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 1: One is the Padres, who are I think forty nine 309 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 1: and fifties sitting there at forty nine and fifty right now? 310 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 1: Not great? I mean they have a lot of pieces. 311 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:03,480 Speaker 1: And then the other one is the Blue Jays, who 312 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 1: almost were again six inches away from winning the World 313 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 1: Series last year. Are these teams going to be sellers? 314 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 1: Is there a move out there? Dylan cieslaws last night 315 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 1: for the Blue Jays. Is there a move out there 316 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 1: that could put both fault these teams back into playoff 317 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 1: not only playoff contention, but World Series contention. 318 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 4: It's tough to see right now with both those teams, 319 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 4: AJ and both those teams right now, if you had 320 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 4: to guess, would be trending towards selling the Padres. This 321 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 4: morning I checked their playoff odds were like nine percent, 322 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 4: not very good at all. Now. The difference with them 323 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 4: is they're run by a President of Baseball Operations AJ Preller, 324 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 4: who doesn't seem to take into account the odds against him. 325 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 4: He will fire, and he will try his best to 326 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 4: put a playoff caliber team on the field almost no 327 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 4: matter what the odds are. Now, could this year be 328 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 4: the exception? It certainly could be the exception, and it 329 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 4: probably should be the exception based on the way they've played. 330 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 4: Their offense just hasn't been good enough. The rotation is 331 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:06,359 Speaker 4: still full of questions. Maybe they get paveda back and 332 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 4: must grove back and it's a better look, but it's 333 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 4: tough to see. The Blue Jays it's kind of the 334 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 4: same thing. Haven't hit all year and vlad Junior still 335 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:20,199 Speaker 4: does not have a home run at Rogers Center. No 336 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 4: home runs at home this season for lad Junior, it's 337 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 4: hard to believe that that's possible. And it's not just 338 00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 4: on him. They've missed Addison Barger, They've had Alejandro Kirk 339 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 4: out for a while, come back not that good or 340 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 4: not that good offensively, they just haven't clicked the way 341 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 4: they have in the past. So I could see them 342 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 4: selling too, and it would be surprising and maybe things 343 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 4: change over the next eleven days in each case because 344 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 4: we've seen just look at the Red Sox as an example, 345 00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 4: it's really two weeks that this has happened. Over before 346 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,639 Speaker 4: this fourteen game streak, no one was saying, wow, the 347 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 4: Red Sox, so it can change really quickly. 348 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 3: All right, Well, then, who are the Jays' most valuable pieces? 349 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,920 Speaker 3: Is it Gosman is a Dalton Varshow in the defensive 350 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:09,639 Speaker 3: center field aspect? Or is there something that I'm not 351 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 3: thinking of that's got an expiring contract? 352 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 4: Varshow has an expiring contract. He would be one. Springer. 353 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:18,840 Speaker 4: I don't know that he'd have much value. He would 354 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 4: be another, and certainly Gospin would be a guy that 355 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 4: would get a lot of attention if they put him 356 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 4: out there. They also have some bullpen pieces, lesser guys 357 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 4: that they could trade. I'm not exactly sure what it 358 00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:36,119 Speaker 4: would look like for them, but listen, there's talent on 359 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 4: that team, obviously, and there are players that could be 360 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 4: traded and maybe bringing them something back. It's just if 361 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 4: you're the Blue Jays coming off a World Series bid, 362 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 4: a World Series appearance, it's hard to do. It's hard 363 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,119 Speaker 4: to give up and say, man, we can't be that 364 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 4: team that we were last year, only I don't know, 365 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,680 Speaker 4: nine months ago. So it's going to be really interesting 366 00:18:57,760 --> 00:18:58,679 Speaker 4: to see how they play this. 367 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 1: A lot of pressure, a lot of pressure. Remember last 368 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 1: year this time, you know, the front office there was 369 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 1: on the hot seat. John Schneider was on the hot seat. 370 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,159 Speaker 1: And then they turned it around. I mean kind of 371 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 1: like the Red Sox they fired their manager. Breslo was 372 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 1: on the hot seat, and now here they are in 373 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 1: playoff contention. So it's crazy how one fourteen game winning 374 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,919 Speaker 1: streak can turn everything around. Ken It really is crazy. 375 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 1: That's that's what that's what they're hoping for. But sho 376 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 1: heo Tani. Everyone's saying, oh, he's gonna win the cy 377 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 1: Young I kept saying he's not because he's not going 378 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 1: to pitch enough. He's not going to be out there enough. 379 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 1: Now he's skipping starts. He's got a bad left knee. 380 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 1: Is there a little bit of worry on the Dodgers 381 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:33,639 Speaker 1: in that they might actually have to go out and 382 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: get more starting pitching. 383 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,119 Speaker 4: There has to be some concern and there has to 384 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:41,640 Speaker 4: be some thought of that. Now they're downplaying this. They're 385 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 4: saying they're just playing for the long haul. And he 386 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 4: was throwing I think as recently as yesterday or the 387 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,920 Speaker 4: day before, even with this issue that he has, which 388 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 4: he said is mechanically related. He needs to figure out 389 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 4: how to deal with this while pitching. That said, what 390 00:19:56,680 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 4: is their priority, always their priority is October. So what 391 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 4: they want to do is get him as healthy as 392 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 4: possible to pitch and hit in October. It's the same 393 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,280 Speaker 4: thing they're doing, just on a different scale with Snell 394 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 4: and with Glass. Now they're pointing all toward the postseason. 395 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 4: That said, could they use another starter to protect themselves. Yes, 396 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 4: they probably could. It's just that Andrew Friedman, their president 397 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 4: base Operations, hates overpaying at the deadline, and for starting 398 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 4: pitchers they usually have to overpay. So I don't know 399 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:31,679 Speaker 4: how aggressive they'll be. They've got options. Eric Glower has 400 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 4: been really good for them. River Ryan's been up and 401 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:37,679 Speaker 4: down in the minor leagues with a hamstring issue, but 402 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 4: he's rehabbing and he's apparently trending well. They can do 403 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:46,360 Speaker 4: some things and be okay as long as they get 404 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 4: to the playoffs, which they will. Remember, they have this 405 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:52,400 Speaker 4: huge cushion, so I don't know that they'll feel the urgency. 406 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 4: And everyone's wondering, I'm sure, Okay, what about schoogle for them? 407 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 4: This is what they do right, hang around the backboard, 408 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 4: then dunk on the entire sport. They don't necessarily want 409 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,680 Speaker 4: to do that. It'll be interesting to see how aggressive 410 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 4: they are on it. If it becomes a thing. 411 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 3: I should say, yeah, yeah, how much was that knee 412 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:18,119 Speaker 3: directly related to just pitching? The swelling in it that 413 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 3: they had to take down, and the mechanics because he's 414 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:23,639 Speaker 3: still hitting and there's a lot of twisting and hitting 415 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 3: and you know, so there's a fear. Is there any 416 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:31,199 Speaker 3: talk of him possibly taking a break completely or just 417 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,439 Speaker 3: from the hitting and not from pitching. 418 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 4: I don't know how much of it relates to either 419 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 4: of those skills. There is talk of him not pitching 420 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 4: for some time. That was Dave Roberts quote. He will 421 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 4: not pitch for some time, taking a break from hitting. 422 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 4: It doesn't seem necessary, but obviously if it becomes in 423 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:55,439 Speaker 4: a Dodger's mind something that would benefit o'tani and accelerate 424 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 4: the healing process here, why wouldn't they do it. They've 425 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:01,159 Speaker 4: got this huge lead, they're not caught by anyone in 426 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 4: that division. All those teams are flawed in one sense 427 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 4: or another, so they could really act as cautiously as 428 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,639 Speaker 4: they want with him. And they've taken some cautious steps 429 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:15,920 Speaker 4: here simply by stopping and pausing the pitching. So I 430 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 4: don't know they answered exactly to what is causing this 431 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 4: and how it's playing out for him. But at the 432 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,679 Speaker 4: same time, the Dodgers are going to slow play it, 433 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 4: and they have every ability to slow play it because 434 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:27,639 Speaker 4: of the cushion they've built. 435 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:31,199 Speaker 1: Ken. Thank you very much for joining us, by the way, 436 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 1: in case you didn't hear. I don't know if you 437 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 1: saw the opening the show, but I helped coach Team 438 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 1: USA Baseball and we went four and oh my team 439 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 1: did Ken, so congratulate me. Thank you for the congratulations. 440 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 1: And also we called the kids to the front of 441 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:45,919 Speaker 1: the bus and we asked them their favorite team and 442 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:48,639 Speaker 1: their favorite player. I was shocked at this. Of the 443 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 1: twenty two kids, we had, not one said show hey, 444 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:54,359 Speaker 1: not one said show hey. I couldn't believe it. I 445 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,960 Speaker 1: could not believe. It's not one kid. Yeah, I mean 446 00:22:58,000 --> 00:22:58,359 Speaker 1: there was. 447 00:22:59,000 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 4: It was. 448 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 1: It was. It was everybody else. It was dependent on 449 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 1: where they were from. Braves guys, you know, had their 450 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 1: braves people, you know, so the southeastern guys had their people. 451 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:10,200 Speaker 1: There was some kids from Tampa that said some raised guys. 452 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 1: There were some kids from up north that had Phillies guys, 453 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:16,200 Speaker 1: the West coast guys. Though it was, it wasn't show hey. 454 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 1: And I was shocked that the kids from like La 455 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:19,160 Speaker 1: didn't say show hey. 456 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 4: O Tani and it is surprising and Aja, I have 457 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:25,439 Speaker 4: to say congratulations. Obviously you're the next great manager in 458 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 4: Major League Baseball. After managing these. 459 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:32,360 Speaker 1: Children, Ken Ken, They're eighteen years old. Ken I don't 460 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:36,359 Speaker 1: understand they're not sure they can vote Ken. Okay, thank you, 461 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:40,120 Speaker 1: Thank you, can go back to your Caesar salad. Thanks. 462 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 1: Hopefully we got you out on time. It's one thirty five. 463 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 1: And make sure you check out Ken on Fair Territory, 464 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 1: Mondays and Thursdays on the ft YouTube page.
