1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,880
Speaker 1: Alex Cora before the game, when asked if he was

2
00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:07,400
Speaker 1: intrigued by how Kyle Schwarber's free agency was going to go,

3
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:13,520
Speaker 1: he said, very, very intrigued. How intrigued you might ask,

4
00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:19,720
Speaker 1: very that's interesting, right, we saw and my potato brain

5
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:23,760
Speaker 1: was trying to connect dots as much as possible. I'm

6
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:28,040
Speaker 1: thinking last offseason, right, Cora. He was very outspoken about

7
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:32,800
Speaker 1: bringing in Alex Bregman. Could this be this off season's

8
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:37,680
Speaker 1: Alex Bregman for Alex Cora? Could Kyle Schworber be a

9
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:41,200
Speaker 1: possibility for the Red Sox this offseason? Well, I mean, listen,

10
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 1: I've been on the I've been on the record saying,

11
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: you know, I kind of I don't know why they

12
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 1: let Shoorber go. I know, I think at the time

13
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,280
Speaker 1: you're thinking to yourself, you know, you had cases coming up,

14
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 1: and I think the Red Sox, you know, they wanted

15
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:58,600
Speaker 1: guys that could, you know, I think they wanted that

16
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 1: flexibility at the time. So I don't they weren't, you know,

17
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:05,200
Speaker 1: too serious when it came to Schwarber, and that was

18
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,360
Speaker 1: a big mistake. I mean, this guy's been amazing this year,

19
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 1: hitting two forty eight, A three, seventy seven on base

20
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 1: a five point fifty three on the slugging. You know,

21
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,200
Speaker 1: they they spent that money on Massazaki Yoshita, and look

22
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,880
Speaker 1: at how that's gone, you know, I think, I don't know.

23
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:21,959
Speaker 1: I think just at the time they were looking for

24
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 1: just a different style, and then they were looking for

25
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 1: more of a contact oriented approach. I don't know. I mean,

26
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:32,480
Speaker 1: Schwarber to me, he was so good with the Red Sox.

27
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 1: If we're gonna take a look at his numbers with

28
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 1: the Red Sox in twenty twenty one, I don't know.

29
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 1: Like to me, I just think that's kind of crazy that.

30
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:45,080
Speaker 1: I mean, goodness, gracious, you know, forty one games, hitting

31
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 1: two ninety one before thirty five on base a, five

32
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 1: point twenty two on the slugging. He had a Grand

33
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 1: Slam in the postseason for crying out loud. I don't know.

34
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 1: And like fans really liked him. I mean, he really

35
00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 1: connected well with the fan base while he was here.

36
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 1: I don't know. I never to me, I remember thinking

37
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,639
Speaker 1: at the time, you know, I you know, I knew

38
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 1: they had their eyes on Cossas coming up, so you know,

39
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 1: first base wasn't gonna be a thing. Schwarber was playing

40
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 1: first base, and I kind of thought like, well, I

41
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:19,080
Speaker 1: don't know, you know, my Yoshida, But then again, you

42
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 1: were looking at Yoshida as like a left fielder. So

43
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: at the time, for the most part, right, I don't know. Again,

44
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 1: I just I feel like that's if you go back

45
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: over the last you know, several years, this was one

46
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 1: of the bigger whiffs in my opinion. I remember that

47
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 1: offseason thinking, man, I'd love to have Schwarber back. But

48
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,239
Speaker 1: I do remember also thinking I didn't see the Red

49
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:47,400
Speaker 1: Sox going crazy for a contract again, though he showed

50
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:49,919
Speaker 1: he could play in Boston and he was really good.

51
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,640
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, I don't know. It is what

52
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 1: it is. Could we maybe see the Red Sox go

53
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 1: after him again? I mean, he's only he's still thirty two.

54
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:03,919
Speaker 1: I mean he's gonna be he's not even He's not

55
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 1: even gonna be thirty three this offseason, So I mean,

56
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,079
Speaker 1: you know, could they maybe do something with like a

57
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 1: like a three year contract or something like that or whatever.

58
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 1: You know, he's gonna be looking for a pretty decent

59
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 1: contract this offseason. He's been phenomenal. He's one of the best.

60
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 1: He's been one of the best offensive players in the game. Now,

61
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 1: the question is, you know, the Red Sox. I mean,

62
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: who knows what's gonna happen here at the deadline, right

63
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,080
Speaker 1: I mean, we're all got our eyes on you know,

64
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,120
Speaker 1: Jared Rant it is seemed to be staying put. Is

65
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 1: he gonna be moved or you know what's going on there?

66
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 1: I guess you you could see a scenario where Duran,

67
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 1: if he's not moved to the deadline, he could get

68
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:48,360
Speaker 1: moved to this offseason. Maybe will you're I'd probably say

69
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 1: no on that one. I don't know, like either way,

70
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 1: one of those guys, I would imagine he's gonna get

71
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: moved at some point, whether that's in the next week

72
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 1: and a half or in the offseason. At this point,

73
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 1: you know, with Yoshida, I'm thinking he's I just have

74
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 1: a hard time seeing Yoshida being with the Red Sox

75
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,680
Speaker 1: next year. I have a hard time seeing it. I

76
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:20,599
Speaker 1: think at the very least, I mean, they'll they'll move

77
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: him somewhere, you know, eat the contract whatever. I mean,

78
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,040
Speaker 1: he's only got a couple more years left, so I

79
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: can see the Red Sox being a bit more comfortable

80
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: eating the remainder of the contract, and if they can't

81
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 1: move him anywhere, they just dfam. I just have a

82
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:37,559
Speaker 1: hard time seeing them keeping Yoshida for twenty twenty six.

83
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,280
Speaker 1: Never bet on baseball before, well, it's easy. Pick a

00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 1: So, if you end up moving one of your outfielders

105
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 1: and Yoshida, that opens up the possibility of Schworbor being

106
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:52,480
Speaker 1: your DH again. But then again, you know Coorra. It's

107
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 1: funny with Cora because he's the guy that's always really

108
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 1: like to have that that versatility. But here's the thing,

109
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,919
Speaker 1: here's another thing to pay attention to. What happens with

110
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 1: first base. Schoreber has shown he can play first base.

111
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 1: Has Shoreber played first base at all over the last

112
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,159
Speaker 1: couple of years with the Phillies. I have not kept

113
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 1: track of that. No, he has not played first base

114
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 1: since twenty twenty one. So I think you could absolutely

115
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:28,040
Speaker 1: see a situation like that. But here's the thing. You know, Cora,

116
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 1: you know that he knows that Schoreber can play first right,

117
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 1: depending on you know what happens with casas, could you

118
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 1: see Schober be your everyday first baseman? Possibly? Maybe I

119
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,839
Speaker 1: could see a there is a path to get Kyle

120
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 1: Schoorber on the Red Sox for twenty twenty six. I

121
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 1: think there's a path. You're gonna have to make some

122
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 1: things happen. You're gonna have to make a couple of moves.

123
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 1: I don't know right now. Going back to these comments,

124
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 1: I think Cora he's looking at Schwarber as the big

125
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 1: off season addition. Offensively, could you imagine this lineup? I mean,

126
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,119
Speaker 1: come on, I mean, let's say let's say Duran gets moved.

127
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 1: You'd have Schwarber, a Bray, you big left handed boppers

128
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 1: in the middle of the order, Bregman Roman, I mean,

129
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 1: come on, you know Marcella Meyer takes a step forward.

130
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 1: I mean, holy cow, what a lineup that would be?

131
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 1: Holy cow, what a lineup that would be. W'd be phenomenal.

132
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 1: I think there's a path, and I wonder if Craig

133
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,360
Speaker 1: gets aggressive. Remember we did have that bit of a

134
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 1: disconnect with the front office in Cora this past offseason,

135
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 1: So could that come into play. Whatever it is, it

136
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:50,400
Speaker 1: sounds like Korra wants Schwarber, So I'm definitely open to

137
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 1: the idea. We'll see. We're very far away from the

138
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 1: off season, obviously, but let's get to the chat. I

139
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,240
Speaker 1: did say here that I would take a look at

140
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 1: the chat here, Corbyn, Robbie, would you rather them not

141
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 1: extend Bregman and sign Tucker or keep Bregman and go

142
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: after Schobert? I would? I listen, I want to I

143
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 1: want to worry. I already know the answer. I know

144
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 1: my answer, but I want to word this to where

145
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:21,760
Speaker 1: people don't call me crazy. I really like Kyle Tucker,

146
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 1: but we already have so many lefties. I know Schworbert like,

147
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 1: but I would rather keep the right handed bat of

148
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 1: Bregman while bringing in a lefty bat who's gonna be

149
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:39,560
Speaker 1: cheaper than Tucker. That's what I would do personally. I mean,

150
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:43,679
Speaker 1: the outfield's full. That's another thing too. Let's say they

151
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: end up moving Duran. Right, you can have Roman, you

152
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,560
Speaker 1: can have SETI, You're gonna have Willier, right, that's the
