Speaker 1: We're back on YouTube. We missed you last time, but

19
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 1: we're back here. It figures because, of course, last episode

20
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 1: was a happy one. It was a good one. This one,

21
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 1: we're a little bit back to down in the dumps.

22
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 1: The Mets just finished up a two game series against

23
00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 1: the Boston Red Sox and it just simple wasn't pretty.

24
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:05,040
Speaker 1: It was not good. It was super super bad. And

25
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 1: there's not a lot of positive things to talk about

26
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: here besides what you probably already know. But we're gonna

27

33
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 1: got Jeter had no range. James Ciano my co host

34
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 1: here alongside Major raftneck Mark talking about Mets baseball, and

35
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 1: I mean, let's just say it. We suck really really

36
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 1: bad right now.

37
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Mets.

38
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 3: The Mets might stink then we might have thought that

39
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 3: some of the players in this team were better than

40
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:46,039
Speaker 3: they are. After getting swept and allowing three runs in

41
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 3: two days, I am so down right now. I feel defeated, beleaguered.

42
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 2: I'm so happy there's an off day tomorrow. It's thrilled.

43
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 1: It's I'm getting a little travel day too, because I'm

44
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:58,480
Speaker 1: head to Texas with the Boston Red Sox. So it's like,

45
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 1: I don't even have to worry about Mets baseball tomorrow,

46
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 1: and that's the last thing I want to think about,

47
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 1: because my God is it's the offense. The offense is

48
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:08,720
Speaker 1: so so bad.

49
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 2: The offense is awful.

50
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 3: We scored one run in twenty one innings, and luckily, luckily,

51
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 3: we found a win in that mix, Thank God.

52
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,080
Speaker 1: And oh God, like this this series, the Red Sox

53
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,639
Speaker 1: didn't particularly even do anything well. Like I know you're

54
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 1: gonna say, like they pitched pretty well, but like, also,

55
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 1: I think the mets horrendous at bats helped them seem

56
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 1: like they pitched a little bit better than they did

57
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 1: because watching Garrett Ridgards and Nick Pavetta in the last

58
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:36,960
Speaker 1: two days never did I go, oh my god, these

59
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 1: guys are untouchable and the Mets made them look that way.

60
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,080
Speaker 3: No, yeah, of course not. But again I said this

61
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 3: heading into the series. There was a fear of mine

62
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,359
Speaker 3: that these Red Sox pitchers are better than everyone thought.

63
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 3: I said that preseason on Twitter whatever, But it just

64
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 3: seems that this is true.

65
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 2: Now.

66
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 3: The Red Sox came out here with Garrett Richards and

67
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 3: Nick Pavetta and diced us up two days in a row,

68
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 3: and on top of those two, the bullpen, their bullpen

69
00:02:58,240 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 3: looked pretty damn good.

70
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: The bullpen looked good. And this almost even builds into

71
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,079
Speaker 1: the Mets here. Like everyone was worried about the Red

72
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:07,079
Speaker 1: Sox pitching, right, everybody was worried about the Mets pitching.

73
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 1: And that has by far been the saving grace of

74
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 1: the season, is that the pitching is the reason why

75
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 1: we're even close to having a five hundred record right now.

76
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 1: And it's because you get to Gram every five days,

77
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 1: who's just unbelievable. And we'll get going into him as well.

78
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,360
Speaker 1: But even Peterson and gave one, gave us a good start.

79
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 1: The bullpen has been great. Everything that we thought was

80
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 1: gonna be a problem besides the defense. Defense hasn't been great.

81
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, we knew defense wasn't good. Remember remember spring training

82
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 3: when we're hitting the shit out of everything I do?

83
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 1: That was fun. I was excited.

84
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, training was a lot of fun. I wish we

85
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 3: were still in spring training because this sucks.

86
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 1: This like this stinks. I When this team sucks, they suck,

87
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 1: and right now they suck.

88
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 3: This stretch has caused me to get a little bit

89
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 3: introspective on some of the Mets key pieces, which I

90
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 3: don't want to do because we like to stay positives.

91
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 3: Twenty games in. These guys have relatively proven track records.

92
00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:00,120
Speaker 3: But maybe there's a chance that Tom Smith is in

93
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 3: like a sure fire middle of the other bat that

94
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 3: we thought he was last year after a nice sample.

95
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 3: Maybe he's just still a depth piece and it defensive liability.

96
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:08,600
Speaker 2: McNeil.

97
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 3: He's had these bouts each of the last three years

98
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 3: now where he's looked just lost for periods at a time.

99
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 3: Maybe if that slump extends a little further than it

100
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 3: has in the past, he just just loses his touch.

101
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 2: Maybe I don't know.

102
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 3: Pete everything, Pete was doing so well for the last

103
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 3: couple of weeks, he completely it complete went out the

104
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:26,920
Speaker 3: window two games.

105
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 2: What the What the fuck happened to Pete?

106
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 1: He he was spitting on sliders for weeks consecutively and

107
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 1: he just swung at everything these last two days.

108
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 2: He looked horrific at the plate.

109
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 1: I think up until like that last out at the

110
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 1: at the end of the game for him, he shuck

111
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: out six times in a row, and we were talking

112
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:43,360
Speaker 1: about in the National Series how good he was and

113
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 1: how he wasn't striking out and he was finally starting

114
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 1: to look like he was Patient Pete. And we said,

115
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:48,599
Speaker 1: we love patient.

116
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 2: Pete, Patient Pete.

117
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,919
Speaker 1: We did not see patient Pete this series. So Patient

118
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,039
Speaker 1: Pete sounds like a character and like a child's television show.

119
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 3: Who goes to the doctor Pete. Here's patient Pete, Pati

120
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 3: and Pete has a knee scrape.

121
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 1: This is what patient Pete does. And right now we're

122
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 1: just I mean, I would love to see patient Pete

123
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,559
Speaker 1: at the plate again. I miss patient Pete. He's gone,

124
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 1: He's nowhere to be seen. This team tends to avalanche

125
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 1: or snowball. Snowball's right where an avalanche isn't the right thing,

126
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 1: but it feels like an avalape.

127
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 2: He feels like an avalanche. Everything just falling down on

128
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:18,719
Speaker 2: top of us.

129
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,720
Speaker 1: Can't get out, everything's fallen down. And like when we're

130
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 1: playing bad, we play bad. Besides the Grom and the

131
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:26,480
Speaker 1: bullpen again, I mean, that's a lot. That's a big

132
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,840
Speaker 1: part of the game, but really offensively, nobody picked them,

133
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:29,840
Speaker 1: nobody picked anyone else.

134
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 3: There's there's not one person who look competent in these

135
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 3: last two days to play. There was no hit there

136
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 3: where I came up and I was like, oh, I

137
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,840
Speaker 3: feel kind of good. Even before though apparently was on

138
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,039
Speaker 3: a five game hitting streak. Gary said during that last inning,

139
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 3: I had no idea you could.

140
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 2: You could have fooled me.

141
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,479
Speaker 1: It was the measliest five game hitting streak of all time.

142
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:47,839
Speaker 1: The dude was scraping it by his at bats still

143
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 1: look horrendous. I don't care what the five game hitting

144
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,799
Speaker 1: streak says. He looks horrible at the play, he looks lost.

145
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 2: Even that bass hit from Pete.

146
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 3: I think it was in the eighth inning that was

147
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 3: the laziest ground ball I've ever seen in my life.

148
00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:58,600
Speaker 3: It just happened to find the hole just based on

149
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:01,280
Speaker 3: the red sox alignment it was I would there. I

150
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,239
Speaker 3: don't even know how many balls we hit hard tonight.

151
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:04,720
Speaker 2: It couldn't be more than a few.

152
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 3: So the Mets in this entire game only put one

153
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 3: ball in play at one hundred miles an hour more

154
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 3: and it was exactly one hundred miles an hour, And

155
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 3: that was McNeil's base hit, which really was just misplayed

156
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 3: by Verdugo because the ball hit right at used the

157
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:16,360
Speaker 3: hardest player.

158
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:21,279
Speaker 1: Give or just got like stuck in the mud, which

159
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 1: that can happen sometimes, and.

160
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,480
Speaker 3: Then otherwise we only had four other balls in play

161
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 3: that were hit. The hard hit rate what's the word

162
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 3: threshold ninety five miles an hour, McCann's double play which

163
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 3: sucked Lindor's line out, which that was just a sick

164
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,720
Speaker 3: play by Marwin can for though a flyout I don't

165
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,039
Speaker 3: even remember this, and Alonzo by the Granddad that was hard.

166
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 1: I was getting so crazy after the game that I

167
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 1: was going on fangrafts and looking at team batting stats

168
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,280
Speaker 1: and just going through any single thing that I can

169
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 1: try and find as to what the reason is that

170
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,040
Speaker 1: the Mets can't hit, and it just simply comes down

171
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 1: to extra base hits. We are not getting a single

172
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 1: extra base hit at all. We're not even hitting poorly

173
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 1: like average wise. We're getting on base I think on

174
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 1: like a top ten in the league. Our OPS is

175
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 1: like top twelve, top thirteen, which is a team that

176
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 1: should be able to score everything except runners in scoring

177
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,080
Speaker 1: position and extra base hits. The Mets are doing fine.

178
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:12,760
Speaker 1: It's just those two things.

179
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 3: Definitely, honestly the exact same thing after the game to

180
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 3: try and get some fun stats to the listeners at home,

181
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 3: even though this isn't fun. But the Mets have the

182
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 3: twelfth highest swinging strike or a fifth percentage in the league,

183
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 3: which is not high, this middle of the pack, and

184
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 3: they have the fifth lowest K rate in the league.

185
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 3: So the ball is being put in play. And when

186
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 3: I dug into a deeper the Mets are the unluckiest

187
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 3: team so far in baseball in terms of weighted OBA

188
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,760
Speaker 3: was on base average minus your expected way though wOBA,

189
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 3: which is that's a stackass analytics trying to be an

190
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 3: legal but they have the largest difference between their actual

191
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 3: outcomes and their expected outcomes this year.

192
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 2: Is that an excuse? Absolutely not.

193
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 3: Does that mean anything, doesn't feel like it right now,

194
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 3: but it still just means that there is going to

195
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,679
Speaker 3: be We're gonna find level at some point. These guys

196
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 3: aren't bad. We're just if the Mets were striking out

197
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 3: at a league high clip, I would be much more

198
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:00,920
Speaker 3: nervous than with this. But they're they're not doing that.

199
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 3: They're striking out one of the lowest rates in the league.

200
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 3: The ball's being put in play. Eventually, it's gonna drop

201
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:06,640
Speaker 3: right what I'm saying for three weeks.

202
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 1: Eventually drop as to at some point. And I've even

203
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 1: put like talked about like like I don't want to

204
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 1: fire Chili Davis because I think Chili Davis is a

205
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 1: good hitting coach and I don't think it's his fault

206
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 1: because even when you go to this ground ball percentage,

207
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 1: they're not towards the top of the league. They're hitting

208
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 1: a league average amount of ground balls, which you would

209
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 1: think that the Mets are pounding the ball into the

210
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 1: ground if you watch a game, but that's not the case.

211
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 1: They're hitting line drives almost towards the top of the league.

212
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,200
Speaker 1: So that's another thing, is like we're hitting the ball hard,

213
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 1: we're getting out, but also at the same time, it

214
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 1: feels like every single time we need a hit or

215
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 1: we get a guy on, we're either walking, which is

216
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,679
Speaker 1: typically good, but then the next guy grounds out into

217
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 1: a double play. Like how many times have we seen

218
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,600
Speaker 1: a guy leadoff walk or a leadoff double, then a

219
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 1: walk and then double playing the inning's over.

220
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 3: I mean, dude, that to gram at that today, it

221
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,680
Speaker 3: was so weird that he wasn't bunting. Yeah, I couldn't

222
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 3: believe it, but that was shocking. Keith was talking about

223
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:57,839
Speaker 3: it and during the game and he's like, you got

224
00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,120
Speaker 3: a bun? And even Alex asked me, he was like,

225
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,559
Speaker 3: why are they swinging here? And I go, I think

226
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,679
Speaker 3: because it's just been so bad that they're like why not?

227
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 3: Who cares? Yeah, I guess, but I think that's the

228
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 3: wrong call. But I had a weird revelation about Chili

229
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:12,959
Speaker 3: Davis today. Not that I think he should be fired.

230
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 3: I don't really love Chili Davis. He has been not

231
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 3: so recently. He may have changed his philosophy since, but

232
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:21,680
Speaker 3: he has shied away from analytics base hitting, which analytics

233
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:23,320
Speaker 3: is much more of a pitching thing than a batting thing.

234
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 2: But nevertheless, he seems to.

235
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 3: Be more of an old school guy, which I get

236
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 3: that a voice like that probably kind of helps sometimes,

237
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 3: especially shouldn't times like this, But it's weird that in

238
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 3: twenty nineteen, the Mets' best two hitters in my estimation,

239
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,960
Speaker 3: were JD. Davis and Peede Alonzo. And then and the

240
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:38,960
Speaker 3: Mets offense as a whole was a little bit disappointing.

241
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 3: Last season, the Mets had one of the better offenses

242
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 3: league and those two guys stunk. And that was without

243
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:46,079
Speaker 3: Chili Davis and this year. Again, the Mets offense is

244
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 3: a hole, is horrific, and those two guys are the

245
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 3: ones who had been statisically the best hitter so far.

246
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:51,559
Speaker 2: Isn't that weird? It is?

247
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 1: It is a weird thing to pick at because specifically

248
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 1: Pete and JD have spoken. I've been outspoken about Hi

249
00:09:58,240 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 1: love Chili.

250
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:02,839
Speaker 3: D Those are his two greatest proponents by far. I

251
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 3: don't think many other guys in this team I've heard

252
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 3: at least speak gold. I mean, no, not many people

253
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:07,559
Speaker 3: should talk about hitting coach.

254
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 2: It's hitting.

255
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:09,719
Speaker 3: It's a hitting coach. But Chili Davis, he's a locker

256
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 3: room guy. But it's just it was a weird trend

257
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:13,199
Speaker 3: and nothing that means anything.

258
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:13,880
Speaker 2: It's just strange.

259
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 1: No, just something to think about. I mean, we there's

260
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 1: again we're trying to find the answer because it seems

261
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:22,960
Speaker 1: like literally no one has an answer. Seriously feels like

262
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 1: nobody knows what's going on except for the fact that

263
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,199
Speaker 1: there's two glaring things that the Mets are not doing well.

264
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 1: Runners in scoring position, hitting with the runners scoring position.

265
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 1: But like you said, at some point that kind of

266
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 1: comes down.

267
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,120
Speaker 3: To it has Yeah, running score position is such a

268
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 3: luck stat because first of all, it's just stat that

269
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,320
Speaker 3: takes into account batting average, which is a pretty lucky

270
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 3: stat to begin with. And second of all, is batting

271
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 3: average when there's a guy standing on certain bases. Besides

272
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,319
Speaker 3: like the pitcher's demeanor, mentality, possibly pitch.

273
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 2: Selection, there's nothing that affects.

274
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 3: The batted ball with a man on base, maybe the

275
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 3: defensive alignment. It's just they're just not finding it. It's

276
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 3: just it's just not happening. It's a bullshit. It's a

277
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:55,320
Speaker 3: bullshit stat, and Mets suck at it.

278
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,000
Speaker 1: Mets stink at it, and they I mean, I'd just

279
00:10:58,040 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 1: love to see, like a ball hit the gap. When's

280
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:00,680
Speaker 1: the last time ball hit the gap?

281
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 2: It feels like, oh my god, when the when the when?

282
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,200
Speaker 2: Christian Vasquez? That double tails like that looks amazing.

283
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 1: It wouldn't it be fun to hit the wall? That's crazy,

284
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 1: be fun to bounce on the warnings. Some guy's running

285
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,679
Speaker 1: running around the bases. And then I guess it doesn't

286
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 1: help either that it seems like a guy hits, the

287
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,320
Speaker 1: next guy is the next two guys are cold. A

288
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 1: guy hits the next two guys are cold. We talked

289
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 1: about this in the last episode a little bit. At

290
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,680
Speaker 1: some point, do the Mets just change to a lineup

291
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 1: of we're going one through nine? Whoever is the hottest

292
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 1: hitters right now? Because I mean, like, I hate to

293
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 1: say it, but Lindor is killing us. He's killed Yeah,

294
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 1: he killing us.

295
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 2: Did he look so stressed out?

296
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 3: He seems something's I don't know, nothing's wrong physically, but something

297
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 3: seems a little bit wrong.

298
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 1: Did you see his press conference before the game today?

299
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 2: Oh about the booze?

300
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,199
Speaker 1: Well, about the booze, And that's fine he can say,

301
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 1: like I don't like booze either. I didn't take anything

302
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 1: into that, but like it was interesting to me where

303
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 1: he said he's not worried, which that's good, but also

304
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 1: at the same time, like he doesn't feel like he's

305
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 1: in a slump, which is just incorrect. I'm sorry for

306
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:04,080
Speaker 1: you in a slump, and I'm gonna have your back

307
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 1: for the eleven years that you're here. But on this

308
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 1: one time when you say you're not in a slump,

309
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 1: I get trying to have a positive mind an attitude.

310
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 1: But like he even said, like I'm not frustrated. It's like, dude,

311
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:14,840
Speaker 1: we've seen you slam the bat at the plate. We've

312
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 1: seen you. You're you're still a happy guy. Like he

313
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 1: was talking crap to Christian Vaska at a second base today.

314
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,679
Speaker 1: But there's clearly some pressure on his back right now

315
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,319
Speaker 1: at the plate, and it's showing he he knows what's wrong.

316
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 3: No, definitely, yeah, but I do see what he's saying

317
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,079
Speaker 3: to a degree about not being in a slump, just because,

318
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 3: like we said before, he's not striking out. Lindor has

319
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,120
Speaker 3: one of the lowest k rates in baseball. He's not

320
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,679
Speaker 3: swing and missing anything. He's not really swinging balls at

321
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:40,439
Speaker 3: a strike zone. He's just doing this stupid thing over

322
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:41,920
Speaker 3: and over again where he just like flicks his bad

323
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 3: at a pitch outside and just takes a lazy pop up.

324
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,960
Speaker 3: He's only has he only has one barrel this whole season.

325
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:50,679
Speaker 1: It's like, why, how is that even possible? It's like, uh,

326
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,080
Speaker 1: Keith said today, is like, what do you call it

327
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 1: his badunka dunk or whatever it some crazy word for

328
00:12:56,559 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 1: his butt, But his butt was going out every single time.

329
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 1: Oh good that he was. There's a pitch on the outside.

330
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 3: Corner and they were talking about him flying open, which

331
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,080
Speaker 3: he has definitely been flying open. That's A telltale sign

332
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:09,840
Speaker 3: you're not able to hit an outside pitch is that

333
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 3: you lose that shoulder and you're just putting the bat

334
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 3: out there. It sucks, and it's just it's it really sucks.

335
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 1: And then like Dom has looked, I mean, just Dom

336
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:23,560
Speaker 1: is back to twenty eight seventeen Tom a fall.

337
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 3: They dropped the stat today. His batting average against breaking balls,

338
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,200
Speaker 3: can hit him under a hundred, can't hit him?

339
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 2: What the fuck is that?

340
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 1: The crazy thing too, is I put it in the notes,

341
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 1: the Mets are seeing the most fastballs out of any

342
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 1: team in Major League Baseball. So it seems like teams

343
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 1: have just figured out the Mets hitters right now, and

344
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 1: we just simply haven't made an adjustment as well, because like, okay,

345
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: the Mets are seeing fifty five point four percent fastballs

346
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 1: and pitches that they see, which by the way, is

347
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 1: insanely high.

348
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:48,720
Speaker 2: That's insane.

349
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:50,439
Speaker 1: That could be skewed a little bit of the fact

350
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:52,960
Speaker 1: that the Mets played the Corps. Cors sees a little bit

351
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,240
Speaker 1: more fastball than other people other teams have played in Cores,

352
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 1: so it doesn't affect all of it. But I think

353
00:13:57,640 --> 00:13:58,960
Speaker 1: it even goes back to the point of just like

354
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 1: it seems like teams are like being smart against the Mets,

355
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 1: which that's what they should do. You should be playing

356
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 1: the matchups, and it's just it feels like we're behind

357
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,439
Speaker 1: every team preparation wise, because it just seems like we're

358
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,240
Speaker 1: not ready. We got punched in the face by the

359
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 1: Red Sox and they didn't even score runs.

360
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:17,320
Speaker 2: I wouldn't say we got punched in the face.

361
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 1: I would say we like we like got shot with

362
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 1: like a tranquilizer gun and and we just like we

363
00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 1: had to lay down motionless for two days, like we

364
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 1: just couldn't get up. You're right, punched the faces worse,

365
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 1: I would say, like you shot us in the knee,

366
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 1: and we just kind of crippled along like try to Like.

367
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 3: It was like I don't know, like every single like

368
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 3: funny stupid movie that's episode of Sunny when they're at

369
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,160
Speaker 3: the Ski Ski resort and we just we broke our

370
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,840
Speaker 3: legs like ten yards from the finish line and we

371
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 3: had to just like grab and try and claw our

372
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:43,800
Speaker 3: way there, but couldn't do it because who the foo

373
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 3: the fucking do that?

374
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 1: Man, There's a lot of great Sunny episodes like that.

375
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:50,480
Speaker 1: Charlie two with the Super Bowl, unrelated to what we're

376
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 1: talking about, but I might I might mean met tomorrow

377
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 1: for the Mets up. Yeah, just Charlie in a bear chap. Yes,

378
00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 1: that is because that's what it feels like with the Mets,

379
00:14:58,040 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: Like we get close and then we go right back.

380
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,080
Speaker 1: And the one thing at least that we can talk

381
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,960
Speaker 1: about that's been great all years the pitching. But we'll

382
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 1: get going into that because let's just hop into game one. Now,

383
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 1: we've got to let's hop in the game one now

384
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:14,360
Speaker 1: fifteen minutes, let's hop into the top. Every is going wrong.

385
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:15,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just happened.

386
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 1: David Peterson was good though, Yeah, David Peterson was good.

387
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 1: This is again this David Peterson experience. Like sometimes he's

388
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:22,960
Speaker 1: gonna throw a bunch of sinkers and the grab ball

389
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 1: is gonna find our gloves. Sometimes gonna throw a bunch

390
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:26,400
Speaker 1: of singers, they're not gonna find our gloves. Like he

391
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 1: did well, he got through. He looked good.

392
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 3: But just his no swinging misses right now, less than

393
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:33,480
Speaker 3: twenty percent withfs he's done a few times this year.

394
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 3: He threw fifty three sinkers yesterday and he can throw

395
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 3: any pitch, even twenty times, which is creazy. The Red

396
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 3: Sox swung at forty seven David Peterson pitches yesterday and

397
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 3: had twenty one foul balls.

398
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 1: It doesn't even happened.

399
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 2: What the fuck is that?

400
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: I think they also had a lot of foul balls

401
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 1: today to the Red Sox against the Grom it was

402
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:53,520
Speaker 1: such I feel like this is the best way to

403
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 1: describe Game one is that rafaeld Ever hit a doink

404
00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 1: and that scored the winning run.

405
00:15:58,560 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 2: JD.

406
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 1: Davis hit a ball too, and Michael Conscuordo Michel Michael Knscuordo, Yeah,

407
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 1: I wish this Scuorreedo, Michael Confordo couldn't score because JD.

408
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 1: Davis literally hit the ball way too hard.

409
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 3: You just had a slam poetry moment. You fucking ruined it.

410
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,040
Speaker 3: You were like getting your fucking monologue. Michael can Square though.

411
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 1: Watched it, watched it, watched it hard, just like the

412
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:19,920
Speaker 1: Mets botched the series.

413
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 2: Watched it a botch.

414
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 1: It's a bauchery right now.

415
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 2: Oh my god, you.

416
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 3: Had a great tweet last night about McNeil's swing, and

417
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,360
Speaker 3: Keith referenced basically the exact same thing you spoke about

418
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 3: in the broadcast today.

419
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 2: That was pretty cool.

420
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 1: Yes, And we also have a little insight here coming

421
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 1: in from Jeff McNeil himself, because Jeff McNeil follows me

422
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 1: on Twitter. No big deal, we're friends. It's okay. But

423
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 1: last night, I guess a couple nights ago, Game one,

424
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 1: Jeff McNeil I noticed, especially because he hit the home

425
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 1: run in his first step back. I went, something looks

426
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:48,400
Speaker 1: different with McNeil's stance. I was like, he looked a

427
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 1: little more squatty, he was leaning a lot more on

428
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 1: his back leg, he was a little more open, and

429
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 1: he just looked at a little bit different at the plate.

430
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 1: So I put, you know, on Twitter side to sides

431
00:16:57,640 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 1: of earlier in the season and then what he did

432
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 1: and that home run, and you can tell there's an

433
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:03,840
Speaker 1: obvious difference. And this is how you know I was

434
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:06,360
Speaker 1: right is because after the game, I mean at ten

435
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 1: twenty six, I don't know when the game ended nine

436
00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:10,640
Speaker 1: to forty five. So thirty minutes after the game was over,

437
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,800
Speaker 1: McNeil sends me the tweet and says, you're the only

438
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:16,800
Speaker 1: one who notices this. Dot dot dot thank you. So

439
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 1: I was like, that's great, and then tonight you saw

440
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 1: s and hy I put it up on the score

441
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 1: on the game. No credit to Draftnick Mark. I'm sure

442
00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 1: if it was, you know, they would have been drooling

443
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:28,360
Speaker 1: all over him. But you know, a fellow Mets fan

444
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,120
Speaker 1: can't mention any names there. I'm salty about that one.

445
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 3: It's not even worth it. That's not even worth the mention.

446
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 3: You should bleep that out.

447
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,880
Speaker 1: I'll do it. Yeah, I'll put like a black bar

448
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:41,479
Speaker 1: overrom my face. But yeah, I mean, like McNeil, this

449
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:43,120
Speaker 1: is like a little insight to the conversation I had

450
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,119
Speaker 1: with him. Go figure, I had a conversation with an

451
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 1: all star second basement with three thirty about hitting.

452
00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 2: Our yeahah yeah, no, yeah, yeah, keep talking.

453
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:53,200
Speaker 1: But he goes He like basically that he's noticed that

454
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,719
Speaker 1: he's been having a problem with he's a little too

455
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 1: closed off and this is something that he knows happens

456
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:01,040
Speaker 1: throughout you know, seasons for him, Patms fixing him again.

457
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 1: It's something he's trying to fix. The no stride is

458
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:05,560
Speaker 1: a big thing for him as well, because it keeps

459
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:07,320
Speaker 1: him a little more open. He doesn't get in front

460
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,400
Speaker 1: of his own body, can't hit the inside pitch, which

461
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 1: you've probably noticed this year he hasn't been pulling the

462
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,919
Speaker 1: ball down the line like on the our first base side,

463
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,119
Speaker 1: which he did so much when he was successful, was

464
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 1: hit those balls down the right field line for doubles.

465
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:19,879
Speaker 1: But then like tonight, he had some bad at bats.

466
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:22,879
Speaker 1: It's gonna happen that Mets as a whole just aren't

467
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:24,440
Speaker 1: doing great. But Game one, at least he had a

468
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:26,640
Speaker 1: home run and I was right. So I love being right.

469
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:28,639
Speaker 1: And then we got to have you be right too,

470
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 1: because Miguel Castro continues to be just sick.

471
00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 2: Miguel Castro is fucking amazing, dude.

472
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:36,160
Speaker 3: That his his inning yesterday was dope. He threw each

473
00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:37,680
Speaker 3: of his three pitches four times each.

474
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 2: That's so cool.

475
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:40,800
Speaker 1: He's sick, and Gary loves him. I love how much

476
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 1: Gary loves now. Gary is like Miguel Castro is sick.

477
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 1: He's embraced Miguel Castro, and he's embraced blaster jacks with

478
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 1: Timmy Trump. But he loves saying that.

479
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:50,919
Speaker 3: He loves saying blaster jacks. He says blaster jacks all

480
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 3: the time.

481
00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 2: He dropped it.

482
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 3: He dropped it during the inning today when there's nothing

483
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 3: to do with anything. He was like, that pitch was

484
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,600
Speaker 3: blaster jacks. That's such an old guy move.

485
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:01,679
Speaker 1: It's like the forbidden fruit for him. A little bit.

486
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 1: He's like, ooh, you see, he's so professional and he

487
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 1: gets to say blaster Jackson.

488
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,160
Speaker 3: He's gonna he's gonna say something's on fleek next week.

489
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,400
Speaker 1: Oh, I'm excited for that, because that's about the only

490
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 1: thing to be excited for Mets baseball world right now.

491
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,480
Speaker 3: It's funny listening to the vibes between Keith and Gary

492
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:17,680
Speaker 3: because Keith is already getting kind of restless. And there

493
00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:19,639
Speaker 3: was a Pavetta pitch today. I want to say it

494
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 3: was that dom Or Lindor. I remember someone hitting lefty.

495
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,760
Speaker 3: Pavetta just floated a slider in the top of the

496
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:29,159
Speaker 3: zone eighty seven miles an hour high in I was like,

497
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 3: oh my god, you gotta just spin your wrists on

498
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,879
Speaker 3: that ball and it was done. Yeah, And Gary was like,

499
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,320
Speaker 3: I slide it from Pavetta and Keith goes, boy, that

500
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:39,159
Speaker 3: was a helicopter.

501
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,199
Speaker 2: The guys go holding back. He's a little pissed, just

502
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 2: like us.

503
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 1: He's had enough, and I know the players have definitely

504
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 1: had enough. They don't want to play like this. We

505
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:51,200
Speaker 1: keep saying this. They're trying, but my god, can we Keith.

506
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,200
Speaker 3: Did reference that today because they were talking a little

507
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 3: bit about de Gram's demeanor. And I guess this will

508
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:58,119
Speaker 3: be our This will be our transition into game.

509
00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 1: Too, because Game W was't stunk, so the other stinker.

510
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:03,679
Speaker 2: This one did too. It doesn't matter. Tied for last.

511
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 3: But he mentioned that they were talking about how to

512
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 3: ground never there's name one of the bus He always

513
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 3: takes acountability, like to say in the press, corps accountability

514
00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 3: for the one unning gave up. He said he wished

515
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:12,720
Speaker 3: he could have been better. The He said he didn't

516
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:15,440
Speaker 3: execute the second inning. He gave up like I think,

517
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 3: what three hits to hit nine nine straight?

518
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:20,360
Speaker 1: The back guys.

519
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:22,960
Speaker 3: But Keith said, I mean, I'll take his word on

520
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,399
Speaker 3: this because he was a hitter. He was part of

521
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,160
Speaker 3: a lineup, a couple of very successful lines a couple

522
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,479
Speaker 3: of not very successful lineups. He said, no one is

523
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 3: more aware of their struggles than the.

524
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,120
Speaker 2: Lineup right now. And I believe him.

525
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 3: These guys are playing like they're stressed out.

526
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,640
Speaker 2: There's no there's no loosey goosey in this team right now.

527
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:41,639
Speaker 1: This feels like the fourth or fifth trade episode that

528
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 1: we've said that where the Mets are tight, like at

529
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 1: the right point there, they're just gonna loosen up. You

530
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,639
Speaker 1: can loosen up and play bad baseball. It happens. But

531
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 1: like being so tight and playing bad baseball's twenty games

532
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:53,399
Speaker 1: of the season, Guys, you can't be tight twenty end

533
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 1: because what's gonna happen when we're at game sixty. What's

534
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,240
Speaker 1: gonna happen when we're at game one hundred time?

535
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,000
Speaker 3: I can't even fathom. We have one hundred and forty

536
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,600
Speaker 3: two more games, Yeah, hundred, Now one hundred and forty

537
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:04,639
Speaker 3: three more games of this.

538
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:08,080
Speaker 1: This has been the longest, most strenuous season that I

539
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:09,720
Speaker 1: can remember as a Mets fan, and it has to

540
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 1: deal with the expectations as well. We expect big things

541
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 1: from this team, but they've made these games so painful

542
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:15,160
Speaker 1: to watch.

543
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:17,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is I just gave the football analogy. I

544
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 2: think it's three or four episodes ago.

545
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:20,640
Speaker 3: This is like, we're two games into an NFL season

546
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:22,399
Speaker 3: right now, the sixteen game season. Fuck the seventeen game

547
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:25,399
Speaker 3: schedule because that math is really hard. But we're like

548
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,960
Speaker 3: an eighth of the way through. That's that's nothing in

549
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,120
Speaker 3: terms of what's happening. But like this sucks.

550
00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:35,439
Speaker 1: It's it's it's it's it's that, it is what it is.

551
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:37,560
Speaker 1: It's a deep side because like you at the end

552
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:39,959
Speaker 1: of the day, you know, it's twenty games. It's not

553
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:41,919
Speaker 1: that big of a deal. But also it is so

554
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,240
Speaker 1: hard not to think it's a big deal because how

555
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,880
Speaker 1: much it's like the uh. I don't know where I'm

556
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:49,840
Speaker 1: going with this one, but basically, like you let something,

557
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:51,359
Speaker 1: it's like when you let a team hang around a

558
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,280
Speaker 1: little bit and then they eventually get there. I feel

559
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:55,359
Speaker 1: like the team hanging around here is bad baseball and

560
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 1: is just gonna be bad baseball all y're long. I

561
00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 1: can't help but take that out of the back of

562
00:21:58,520 --> 00:21:58,800
Speaker 1: my head.

563
00:21:58,800 --> 00:21:59,919
Speaker 2: No, I actually kind of like the analogy.

564
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 3: People let the Mets hang around. People let the Mets

565
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,119
Speaker 3: to the round five hundred and they can't score a run.

566
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 3: I want to talk about the ground for two minutes,

567
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 3: just because I owe it to him.

568
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:07,920
Speaker 2: He's so good. He's so good.

569
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 3: I'm not going to give all the stats, because there's

570
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 3: a million stats to come through every single day. I

571
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:13,679
Speaker 3: for a second today I didn't have the nuts. I

572
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 3: almost bet the Mets un there just because the ground

573
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:17,440
Speaker 3: was pitching under five runts.

574
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:17,639
Speaker 1: I did.

575
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, we actually, and we.

576
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 1: Said it was a lock. Yeah that was a guarantee.

577
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:21,400
Speaker 2: Yeah.

578
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 3: I just didn't have the nuts because I don't want

579
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 3: to beat the Mess to lose. But I should have

580
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,200
Speaker 3: one guy I follow on Twether he was like Nick

581
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 3: Pavett's start tonight, likes playing against the Mets. The Grom's pitching,

582
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,119
Speaker 3: they can't score. What the great call, damn it. But

583
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 3: the Grom he had today he didn't have it, which

584
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,679
Speaker 3: is crazy to say, because his not having it is

585
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:37,440
Speaker 3: better than like.

586
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:38,600
Speaker 2: Eighty percent of the league's peak.

587
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:40,880
Speaker 3: It's ridiculous that first inning I had visions of thinking

588
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 3: about the Grom. It's kind of like the Mets have

589
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:45,159
Speaker 3: a closer for every getting he's in the game, Like

590
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,679
Speaker 3: his like per pitch statistics, like it lines up with

591
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 3: guys like hey there, Hendrix, Like that's what he looks

592
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:51,919
Speaker 3: like out there. He threw nine fast balls over one

593
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:54,760
Speaker 3: hundred miles an hour today in six innings. That's foul.

594
00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:58,639
Speaker 3: That's despicable. It shouldn't be allowed. He mixed up all

595
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:00,320
Speaker 3: three of his pitches much more than last week. Because

596
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,160
Speaker 3: he just didn't really have the command on the fastball.

597
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 1: He showed his shoulders flying open and you kind of

598
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,240
Speaker 1: I can't tell on the way think about pitching mechanics.

599
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 1: But he mentioned it after the game, and he was

600
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,800
Speaker 1: demonstrating in the dugout, so he saw more change up,

601
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:11,400
Speaker 1: some more slide.

602
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:13,520
Speaker 3: There's still no curves. A couple games arow no curves.

603
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:16,679
Speaker 3: But again like whoops, he fucking do this happens? This

604
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,159
Speaker 3: is this is a weekly thing. Now, the stick to

605
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:19,000
Speaker 3: a rum dominates.

606
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:19,560
Speaker 2: Mets.

607
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 3: Can't score lad the rinse repeat, it's not fun, we stink,

608
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 3: can't hit, didn't have good at bats, didn't hit the

609
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 3: ball hard. As I mentioned before, today's game was.

610
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,159
Speaker 1: Awful, and I know you've been on like Paveta and

611
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:32,760
Speaker 1: Richards are better pitchers than I necessarily believe. Where people

612
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 1: believe and have been let on. They have good stuff,

613
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:37,400
Speaker 1: but we also made them look like they were much

614
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:39,399
Speaker 1: better pictures than they are. Definitely, the Red Sox have

615
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:41,440
Speaker 1: sprinkled their faery dust on both of them, and it's

616
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:44,280
Speaker 1: clear that they have gotten something positive out of each

617
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:45,959
Speaker 1: of them. I think Paveta more so than Richards, even

618
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,719
Speaker 1: though Richards was better this game. Pavet has been better

619
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 1: on the season. You know who else was gross? Your boy?

620
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:53,960
Speaker 2: My boy Witlock. I told everyone to watch out for

621
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:54,600
Speaker 2: Gary Litlock.

622
00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,160
Speaker 3: Wow did he look good? Rule five pick from the Yankees.

623
00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 3: That change up is crazy. The fastball is electric. He'll

624
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 3: be in that Asian pretty soon. And he looks like

625
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:04,520
Speaker 3: a fucking piece. It's real shame the Yankees let him go.

626
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 1: I hate to see it.

627
00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 3: He also Barns. When did Matt Barnes get really good?

628
00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:10,920
Speaker 3: Was he always just good?

629
00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 1: Matt Barnes did it a couple of years ago. He

630
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,200
Speaker 1: just He has the whole issue of his control if

631
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 1: he if he is slightly off, he will walk everyone.

632
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,120
Speaker 1: He will walk everyone. But when that dude is clicking,

633
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 1: he is one of the Le'm just say, nastiest closers

634
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 1: in the game. Because that curveball is sick.

635
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 2: I'll give that.

636
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 3: I'll give the nastiest curveball, but there's no way he's

637
00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,159
Speaker 3: near the nastiest closest. You know something, Some of the

638
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 3: freaks that exists out there, the things they do. You

639
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:35,679
Speaker 3: ever seen Bruce Darr Gratther, I'll throw pitch. He's not

640
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 3: even a closer five like there's there's.

641
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:42,160
Speaker 2: People who are better than Matt Barnes. The numbers good.

642
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,760
Speaker 1: One of the numbers he had, like an eighteen kper

643
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 1: nine a couple of years ago or some crazy.

644
00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 2: Eighteen caper nine.

645
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 3: And the bullpen's like where you should be if you

646
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:50,439
Speaker 3: want to be a lead, Like that's fine, cool, whatever.

647
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:52,679
Speaker 3: I we're talking about the Red Sox ball. Let's talk

648
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:55,679
Speaker 3: about the Mets bullpen, because God damn they've been unheralded

649
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 3: so far because there haven't been enough leads to protect.

650
00:24:58,280 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 3: But I want to just give like a general O

651
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 3: to our big three. Trevor May, Edwin Diaz, Miguel Castro.

652
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 1: We're bowing to them. Thank you for know you're given about,

653
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:10,840
Speaker 1: thank you for being the worst. I did realize you're

654
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:14,600
Speaker 1: podcasting from Japan this evening. Yes, Castro this year, he's

655
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 1: striking up forty two percent of the batts to play

656
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:17,439
Speaker 1: he's faced.

657
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:18,639
Speaker 2: That's elite stuff.

658
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:22,320
Speaker 3: May thirty seven, d As twenty eight k minus Wall

659
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:25,120
Speaker 3: Castro thirty six point four, May twenty nine point six.

660
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:29,680
Speaker 3: Like it's unbelievable. Miguel Castro's FIP is zero point three

661
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 3: to three. That's so low, that's insane. Like even the

662
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,159
Speaker 3: balls they're being put in play, he's getting unlucky on,

663
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,119
Speaker 3: like they're not hitting the ball harder in good spots.

664
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,560
Speaker 3: And May's is zero point eight seven, Like those are

665
00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 3: nohing numbers. Another numbers, not one. I'm knocking on every

666
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 3: single thing I have. Those three guys have given up

667
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 3: zero home runs this season combined, which home runs are

668
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,960
Speaker 3: down league wide. But that's incredible for a bullpen not

669
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,600
Speaker 3: be giving up home runs, especially three guys who are flamethrowers.

670
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:55,119
Speaker 2: It's great.

671
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,760
Speaker 3: I just wish, I just wish, I wish they were

672
00:25:57,760 --> 00:25:59,160
Speaker 3: I wish they had something to protect.

673
00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:01,320
Speaker 1: And you know, I'm to include my guy, Jerry's famili

674
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,440
Speaker 1: in this as well. Have you seen his baseball savant numbers?

675
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:04,919
Speaker 2: No, it's incredible. Famili was good.

676
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,040
Speaker 3: I actually had him on this list beforehand. But I

677
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:08,680
Speaker 3: just want to talk about the big three because these

678
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 3: guys are a three head monster. Yes, of course, familias

679
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:12,800
Speaker 3: familiar leads. The B team's the best player in the

680
00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:14,520
Speaker 3: B team, which is a strong B team.

681
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 1: You need you need that, yes, you need you need

682
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:18,479
Speaker 1: the guy who can come in in the seventh when

683
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:20,760
Speaker 1: you're up four. You know it's all right. We're good,

684
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 1: but the bats are about as bad as it is.

685
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,240
Speaker 1: And I think I just want to briefly talk about

686
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 1: it because we sat mentioned a little bit earlier. Maybe

687
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:29,680
Speaker 1: we don't think the bat maybe some of the guys

688
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,199
Speaker 1: aren't as good as we once thought. I'm not necessarily like,

689
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:34,359
Speaker 1: I think that's a thought in my head, But I

690
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,040
Speaker 1: know also at the same time, like that's crazy to

691
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 1: say after twenty games, after watching these guys for hundreds

692
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:40,720
Speaker 1: of games and seeing what they can do. But the

693
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:42,400
Speaker 1: thing I think that's sticking out to me right now

694
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:44,800
Speaker 1: is you've been a big guy talking about like the

695
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,800
Speaker 1: ball being deadened. You talked to not necessarily on this podcast,

696
00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:50,160
Speaker 1: but in conversations that we've had talking about the dead

697
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,000
Speaker 1: and baseball and how some of the numbers have been,

698
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:55,000
Speaker 1: you know, artificially bumped up. Could the Mets be a

699
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:56,960
Speaker 1: little bit of a victim of that with some of

700
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:57,680
Speaker 1: their guys here.

701
00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:01,080
Speaker 3: Definitely, as a team that was near the top of

702
00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:03,359
Speaker 3: the league in home runs last year, taking some more

703
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:05,359
Speaker 3: home runs out of the game will hurt the Mets,

704
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:08,640
Speaker 3: Like it's just bad to happen. And I don't know,

705
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 3: it's like, I don't think it's really even conclusive what's

706
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:12,920
Speaker 3: happened to the ball yet, but basically the ball is

707
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 3: being hit harder but not farther, which is a really

708
00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 3: crazy thing, which basically means that MLB is just paying

709
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,520
Speaker 3: attention to Twitter for the first time ever and affecting

710
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 3: the ball in a way that will make more tweets happen,

711
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 3: which is so ironic given the way they mark the game.

712
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:27,320
Speaker 2: But it just seems like I don't want to blame

713
00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:27,600
Speaker 2: the ball.

714
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:30,919
Speaker 3: I hate blaming the ball because that kind of everyone's

715
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:32,959
Speaker 3: playing with the same ball. But I guess when you

716
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:34,840
Speaker 3: take more home runs out of the game. The original

717
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 3: estimation this season was you take five feet off every

718
00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 3: ball in the air, and I don't know if that

719
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 3: was proven true false or and different yet. But the Mets,

720
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:43,960
Speaker 3: they're just not putting the ball out of the ballpark.

721
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:44,800
Speaker 2: Is not happening.

722
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:46,840
Speaker 1: So I've looked at some stack cast stuff of some

723
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:50,160
Speaker 1: other players, and like, there was a Yearman Mercedes ball

724
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:51,440
Speaker 1: that was hit earlier, and I know that has nothing

725
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,399
Speaker 1: to do with the Mets, but just for baseball and

726
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,280
Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff, there was about ten similarly

727
00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 1: hit balls over the last few years as this one

728
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 1: in Seattle and on average, ridge the balls traveling about

729
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 1: ten feet less, so there's definitely like a little more drag.

730
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:07,879
Speaker 1: I think that's the terminology that they're using. And for

731
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 1: this Mets team, I mean, how many times have we

732
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 1: seen like a hard hit ball and it just seemingly

733
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,679
Speaker 1: goes right to where the outfielder's playing, right before the

734
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:18,000
Speaker 1: warning track, and it's like, oh man, like we're not

735
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 1: getting lyft on the ball at all, and it feels

736
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:20,680
Speaker 1: like when we are getting lift on the ball, it's

737
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:22,479
Speaker 1: going foul and being caught, which we've seen a lot

738
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:23,360
Speaker 1: of as well recently.

739
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:25,760
Speaker 3: So yeah, we Mets have put some pretty great foul

740
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 3: balls out there the last few days.

741
00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:27,520
Speaker 1: Fantastic.

742
00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 3: I've been lacing some foul balls, crushing them. The Mets

743
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:31,600
Speaker 3: have the least home runs of baseball, which is shocking

744
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,359
Speaker 3: on a per at that basis, they're not last, but

745
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:36,680
Speaker 3: they're close to last. They're sitting right around the Pirates,

746
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 3: which is not a place that you want that you

747
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 3: want to be the Mets also, right.

748
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 1: If you're watching this on YouTube, I would love for

749
00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 1: you to don't cheat. Name four hitters on the Pirates

750
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:49,160
Speaker 1: that have hit a home run this year. But in

751
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,480
Speaker 1: the comments on the comments, if you do it, I'll

752
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:53,240
Speaker 1: drop it a hard I'll be checking it out. I mean,

753
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 1: look at what it to my hair that we were

754
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 1: in the same conversation as the Pirates. My hair is everywhere.

755
00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:00,440
Speaker 3: The Mets also are have the seventh fewest home run

756
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 3: per fly balls in baseball, which that's usually stat that

757
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:05,320
Speaker 3: kind of is determined a little bit by luck, so

758
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:07,680
Speaker 3: it should come back to average at some point. More

759
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 3: flat balls will find the stands. But again, the only

760
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:12,160
Speaker 3: teams worse than the Mets and fly balls per home

761
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:15,480
Speaker 3: run which Padres, which is surprising. Orioles not surprising, Race

762
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,040
Speaker 3: not surprising. Not hitting Royals a little surprising. But they're

763
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:19,760
Speaker 3: more contacted than Marlin's Pirates.

764
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:24,320
Speaker 1: Those are pretty horrible offensive teams that you've all mentioned. Yep. Which,

765
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:26,200
Speaker 1: all right, I'm done. I'm done talking about the Red

766
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 1: Sox series. Let's preview this Philly series in.

767
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 2: A few minutes.

768
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:31,600
Speaker 3: Wow, the Phillies have put to the potential this weekend

769
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 3: to literally rip the Mets hearts out this you want

770
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 3: to talk about punching the phase, we could get punch

771
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:38,040
Speaker 3: in the face these three games, because tomorrow we're coming

772
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:41,320
Speaker 3: up against our boy representative of two of the mets

773
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 3: nine wins this season. Mister Chase Anderson, We're coming for

774
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 3: that ass.

775
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:44,959
Speaker 2: Baby.

776
00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 1: If there's anybody, if we don't hit Chase Anderson, so

777
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 1: help me, God, I am.

778
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,720
Speaker 3: I am running into a brick wall. I am, I don't,

779
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 3: I'm jumping through a window. I don't know women do,

780
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:57,280
Speaker 3: and put my head in the toilet. I am going

781
00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:59,160
Speaker 3: to be so upset. If they can't hit Chase Anderson,

782
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 3: most hope.

783
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:01,200
Speaker 2: Will be lost.

784
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 1: I'm at the point where I'd love to see the

785
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 1: Mets come out against Chase Anderson and literally, I don't

786
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:07,280
Speaker 1: just swing out of your shoes. I've said this a

787
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 1: couple of times. Now out of your shoes, I.

788
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 2: Disagree with that.

789
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:10,760
Speaker 1: I'm sick.

790
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:14,120
Speaker 3: Stick with your process, takes, try and do some stuff.

791
00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:15,720
Speaker 1: This guy puts it on a tee for you.

792
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 2: But freaking Chase Anders this doomsday scenario.

793
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 1: We can't hit the Beleague, the horrible Chase Anderson who

794
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 1: stinks we're gonna hit him.

795
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 2: We're gonna win.

796
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:24,960
Speaker 1: We're gonna get a third win on Chase Anderson in

797
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:29,520
Speaker 1: the year, vindicating us. Yes, we're gonna be followed.

798
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,880
Speaker 3: By Wheeler and e Flyn. Wheeler looks so damn good

799
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,080
Speaker 3: with a call by me. Same with e Flyn. Another

800
00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:37,600
Speaker 3: great call by James. But fuck, I don't know how

801
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 3: we're gonna hit those two guys.

802
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, the one saving grace is that no Cigura,

803
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 1: no Helper, super scary. I don't like seeing anyone get

804
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,120
Speaker 1: hurt first off, you know, like even if you're a

805
00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:51,360
Speaker 1: Fillure or whatever team you're from. He got hit in

806
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 1: the face. That ship is scary.

807
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 3: That was horrifying. Hope, I hope he's okay. He seemed okay.

808
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 1: He seemed the most okay I've ever seen anybody get

809
00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 1: hit in the face. Ye somehow, Yeah, which is cool.

810
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:03,000
Speaker 3: But the films are also being like kind of weird

811
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,080
Speaker 3: and combative that someone is on purpose. No one hits

812
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:06,960
Speaker 3: anyone the face on purpose. We're not on imal, Like

813
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:12,000
Speaker 3: that's crazy, Genesis Cabrera, We're not on you.

814
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:15,120
Speaker 2: It's a line from Goodfellas. We're not on am.

815
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:18,600
Speaker 3: Nevertheless, no Cigara. They have Nick Matone playing.

816
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:19,400
Speaker 2: He's not very good.

817
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:24,960
Speaker 1: He's just not tell me something relative revolatory about I

818
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:26,080
Speaker 1: tried to.

819
00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:28,400
Speaker 2: It's Maytan, not Matone. I don't know who cares the

820
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:28,920
Speaker 2: guy film.

821
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,720
Speaker 1: It's filmatone on the on Cleveland. I don't know, I

822
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:36,400
Speaker 1: don't I have no idea, same last name. I try

823
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:38,240
Speaker 1: to find something interesting because he's actually had a nice

824
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:39,080
Speaker 1: couple of coffee this year.

825
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 3: He's the top twenty prospect in the system. It's batting

826
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,160
Speaker 3: after the balls and plays over six hundred. That guy,

827
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:45,240
Speaker 3: he's lucky, lucky son of a bitch.

828
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:47,720
Speaker 2: Give me some of that. Our old friend of Duball

829
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 2: has been back in the line up on a daily basis.

830
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,320
Speaker 1: Fucking asshole, disgusting human being, despicable, shouldn't even be in

831
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:53,680
Speaker 1: the league.

832
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:54,080
Speaker 2: Whatever.

833
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 3: And I know for a fact, a scientific fact. I

834
00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 3: will put everything on it. I'll put I'll put my

835
00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:02,000
Speaker 3: first born, I'll put my right thumb on it. Brad

836
00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:02,440
Speaker 3: Miller is.

837
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:04,160
Speaker 1: Gonna get a big hit this series. And I am

838
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:06,000
Speaker 1: going I'm gonna rip, I'm gonna rip my couch and

839
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:08,000
Speaker 1: half real quick. Where's our Borghy or may?

840
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:10,080
Speaker 2: I have no idea? Why ye, Why has he been playing?

841
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:13,120
Speaker 1: Why has he been banished to the realm of not playing?

842
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 1: Because he's actually hitting.

843
00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:16,920
Speaker 2: He is actually hitting since.

844
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 1: Again, since that game in against the Nationals, he has

845
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:20,240
Speaker 1: an ops almost a nine hundred.

846
00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 2: Okay, that bats whatever, But I would like to see

847
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:25,280
Speaker 2: garm again. But he should be playing.

848
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:28,720
Speaker 3: He should be playing Friday with Marcus Stroman. He should

849
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:30,760
Speaker 3: be paired with Marcus Stroman forever in always. He should

850
00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 3: play all three games of series. We have our three

851
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:35,720
Speaker 3: sinker ballers on the hill between Stroman, Walker, and Peterson.

852
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:37,680
Speaker 3: They've all been throwing the sinker a lot. There's gonna

853
00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,720
Speaker 3: be some ground balls. Fuck the Phillies. Poky Army on

885
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:05,560
Speaker 1: of losing. How have we gone from a team that

886
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:07,520
Speaker 1: was in first place now to what tied for last

887
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:09,920
Speaker 1: You said, yeah, I don't even know if we are

888
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:11,080
Speaker 1: any even I don't think I said that, But we

889
00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:13,000
Speaker 1: feel like the last place team the way we're playing.

890
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:14,720
Speaker 2: No we're not. We're still ahead of one. On the Nationals.

891
00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:17,120
Speaker 1: They got a national suck that they actually played well tonight.

892
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:21,840
Speaker 1: They they obliterate their old trend. Steven Mattz a familiar foe. Good.

893
00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:25,520
Speaker 1: I'm tired of seeing him pitch him so well enough

894
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:29,760
Speaker 1: you jump jumped all over him enough.

895
00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 2: But yeah, the Bras.

896
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:33,400
Speaker 3: Look, the Braises annihilated Kyle Hendricks again. Something might be

897
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:35,240
Speaker 3: wrong with him, but just we just got beat the Phillies.

898
00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:36,799
Speaker 3: Beat teams your division, that's how you win it.

899
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:37,680
Speaker 2: Gotta beat the Phillies.

900
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:39,360
Speaker 3: Gotta be the Phillieses Red Sox series, fuck it, I

901
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:41,080
Speaker 3: don't care about the Red Sox. The men are gonna

902
00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:42,839
Speaker 3: see the Red X for Red Sex a couple more years.

903
00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:47,239
Speaker 1: Good riddance, good riddance, and I guess uh real quick.

904
00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:50,239
Speaker 1: The bad take of this episode will be my take

905
00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 1: from last episode, which will be that Garrett Richards is

906
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:56,239
Speaker 1: a part of the cheek Chase and that was a

907
00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:57,480
Speaker 1: bad I told you it was a bad take. You

908
00:34:57,480 --> 00:34:59,400
Speaker 1: shouldn't have said that. Ship you you that this is

909
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:01,799
Speaker 1: your fault. This is not all I'll take. I'll take

910
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:03,239
Speaker 1: the hit on this one. I think I've made the

911
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:04,640
Speaker 1: most appearances on the bad Mets.

912
00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:07,600
Speaker 3: Takes a big man to admit when they are wrong,

913
00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:08,440
Speaker 3: and you are that big man.

914
00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:09,560
Speaker 2: So congratulations, thank you.

915
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 1: That's the only time anyone's ever called me a big

916
00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:16,799
Speaker 1: here at five wet but uh yeah, that's gonna wrap

917
00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:19,480
Speaker 1: up our episode number ten here of the Mets the podcast.

918
00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:21,439
Speaker 1: There's just there's simply not a lot to talk about

919
00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:23,480
Speaker 1: in a two game series where the Mets scored one run,

920
00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 1: pitched well, played better. That's what the That's what the

921
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 1: theme of this episode is, Mets need to play better.

922
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:30,920
Speaker 1: Which I'm tired of this being the theme of the

923
00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:34,920
Speaker 1: episode too many episodes of playing better. James final remarks,

924
00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:36,879
Speaker 1: final concerns.

925
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:39,120
Speaker 2: Final concerns, We can't hit final remarks. I hope we do.

926
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:41,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I think we're on the same boat.

927
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:46,719
Speaker 1: And you know, Chase Anderson by Anderson Anderson is the

928
00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:50,840
Speaker 1: saving grace slump buster, gotta do it. He better not.

929
00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,279
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I'm getting mad thinking about it because

930
00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:55,200
