It's going to be pretty crazy. It's 16 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 2: to be a lot of baseball in a very short 17 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,319 Speaker 2: time period. Let's hope that the Braves can go out 18 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 2: there and take advantage of a double header on Wednesday 19 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 2: and then try to beat up on a pretty bad 20 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 2: White Sox team on Thursday. 21 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 1: Absolutely, and so we will have all the details for 22 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: you covered in this edition of the Hammer Territory podcast, 23 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 1: of course part of the Foul Territory family of podcasts, 24 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,040 Speaker 1: and some some very exciting news when it comes to 25 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:38,399 Speaker 1: foul Territory foul Territory itself. The show will now be 26 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 1: on Bally's Sports Network. Make sure to check your local 27 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 1: listings and also social media for when the show will 28 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: be airing. But that's not the only exciting thing concerning 29 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 1: the Braves in foul Territory, Scott, there was a pretty 30 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: fun segment today with Ken Rosenthal concerning the Braves. Want 31 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: to tell everybody a bit more about that. 32 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, So a really great segum on the show today 33 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 2: with Ken Rosenthal who was with the Braves in New 34 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 2: York over the weekend. And Rosenthal sat down and talked 35 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 2: with Charlie Morton quite a bit and take away what 36 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 2: Charlie Morton does on the field, off the field, you 37 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 2: will not find a single person who says a bad 38 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 2: word about Charlie. By everyone's accounts, an a plus human being, 39 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 2: an individual. And Ken had some really insightful information from 40 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 2: a conversation he had with Charlie Lee about his future, 41 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,920 Speaker 2: missing his kids and his wife and the strain that 42 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 2: being away for six months can put on his family. 43 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 2: It's really some good stuff. We're gonna play the clip 44 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 2: here for you. 45 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 3: Finally, Ken Rosenthal's writing about how eor as I like 46 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,920 Speaker 3: to call him. It's like, well, I just don't know 47 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 3: what kind of picture I am. Do you feel like 48 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 3: this is something new from Chuck or do you feel 49 00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 3: like this is like you know, this is this really 50 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 3: is the end for Charlie Morton. 51 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 4: I sensed in this conversation that I had with him 52 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 4: on Friday more that is coming to the end than 53 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 4: in the past. And he's talked about retirement for the 54 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 4: past several years. He's forty years old. He's going to 55 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 4: talk about retirement, but he talked about being away from 56 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,359 Speaker 4: his kids, and I do think that we didn't quite 57 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 4: say this outwardly. He seems frustrated with how it's going. 58 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 4: His era's in the low fours. He's doing fine, but 59 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 4: he talked about not knowing who what his identity is 60 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 4: right now. His velow's down, It's not what it was 61 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 4: a couple of years ago. He still has a great curveball, 62 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 4: but there are times he tries to go more slider 63 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 4: cutter because he's not confident in the North South stuff. 64 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 4: He wants the East West stuff. He's going on and on, 65 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 4: and that's Charlie. And that's why guys like me really 66 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 4: enjoy talking to him, because, as I wrote, he'll offer 67 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 4: you a window into his soul. But yes, I do 68 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 4: believe he is getting close to the end. Now. He 69 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 4: misses his kids. He's got four kids. He wants to 70 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 4: see them grow up. He talked about I didn't quote 71 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 4: him on this, but he did talk about how his 72 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 4: wife is burdened and he's off running around playing baseball. 73 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 4: So he's had an amazing career, one of the great 74 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 4: interesting careers of this generation. The fact that it really 75 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 4: all happened for him after thirty. But he is at 76 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 4: least at this point, seeing somewhat of a finish line 77 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:23,720 Speaker 4: in sight. 78 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 1: Of course, amazing insight from Charlie Morton. As always, I 79 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 1: can tell you this, Scott. It's always fun. You don't 80 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 1: necessarily always know where his answer is going to go, 81 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,039 Speaker 1: but at the end of it, it always seems like 82 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 1: he's got great insight. Once again, he put that on 83 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 1: display in that segment with Kim Rosenthal. 84 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know, Charlie has talked about retiring for 85 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 2: a couple of years now, but obviously, whenever somebody wants 86 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 2: to throw a twenty million dollar paycheck at you, that 87 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 2: probably sways some things. And I think Charlie would be 88 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 2: the first one to tell you that when it's his time, 89 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 2: he's going to call it quits. He's had an incredible career, 90 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 2: a career of twenty years now. Professionally, I think the 91 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 2: craziest status was he was coming up when Jeff Francore 92 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 2: and Brian McCann were getting drafted. It's been a very 93 00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:19,039 Speaker 2: long and successful career for Charlie. I would imagine that 94 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,479 Speaker 2: this is his final year. It seemed like he was 95 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 2: truly fifty to fifty after last year and of course 96 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 2: decided to come back. So I would guess this is 97 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 2: probably the last year for Charlie Morton in the major leagues. 98 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 2: It's been a hell of a career and hopefully he 99 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,479 Speaker 2: can find some stability and consistency in the rotation, because 100 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 2: as Ken report it, it sounds like Charlie has been 101 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 2: pretty frustrated with his performance lately. He doesn't have command, 102 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,040 Speaker 2: his velocity has been down a little bit, his fastballs 103 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,719 Speaker 2: down about a mile an hour from last year. So 104 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 2: clearly it has not been a perfect start to the 105 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 2: campaign for Charlie, but he of course is a veteran, 106 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 2: and let's hope that he's able to settle in over 107 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 2: these summer months and really provide a little bit more 108 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,679 Speaker 2: of a stabilizing four behind the big three in the rotation. 109 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 1: Absolutely, for those who want to know just how long 110 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,479 Speaker 1: it's been since, you know, Charlie Morton has been in 111 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: the majors, he actually, Scott, correct me if I'm wrong, 112 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: He actually, if i'm if I remember correctly, he was 113 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 1: the prize acquisition of the Pirates in the Nate mccloth 114 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 1: trade that we did, I believe back in either two 115 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: thousand and eight or two thousand and nine went from 116 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 1: the Braves to the Pirates in that trade. But if 117 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 1: we want to talk about consistency when it comes to 118 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: the Braves rotation, Scott, right now, that is what they're 119 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 1: hoping for above all else, because, as we mentioned, to 120 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 1: start off the show, three games in thirty hours due 121 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 1: to the rain. Now on Tuesday, here's how the brain 122 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 1: schedules will look as the end this road trip twelve 123 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 1: forty five pm Central on Wednesday. They will face off 124 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 1: against the Cardinals. Ronaldo Lopez will be on the mound 125 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: for the Braves, and then in his return to the majors, 126 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,040 Speaker 1: Bryce Elver will actually start Game two, which will start 127 00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:00,480 Speaker 1: at six fifteen pm, and then the Brave Games will 128 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:03,840 Speaker 1: then have to go to Chicago on Thursday to make 129 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 1: up a game that had been I believe one of 130 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:07,280 Speaker 1: their first five games of the season that had been 131 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 1: rained out. They're going to have to make up that 132 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: game on Thursday, and Chris Sale will be making his 133 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: return to Chicago. Now I'm sure he's pitched in Chicago 134 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: for the Red Sox before. I don't know that off 135 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 1: the top of my head, but he'll be on the 136 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: mound in Chicago versus the right White Sox I believe 137 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 1: at three pm on Thursday. But Scott, it's good to 138 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 1: hear those some of those names that are going to 139 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 1: be on the mound. But that is a very, very 140 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 1: tall task for this Braves team that already is kind 141 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 1: of trying to maneuver some different, you know, bodies into 142 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 1: different positions of status of Orlando Arcia up in the air. 143 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: But the big thing is is that the Braves are 144 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: going to have three games in thirty hours. You certainly 145 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 1: are glad that you have these arms on the mound, 146 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: but this is going to be a tall, tall task, 147 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: especially for the Braves pitching staff. 148 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a lot. They're really going to have to 149 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 2: lean on these guys to work deep into the game, 150 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 2: especially and looking at the pitching matchups. You're going to 151 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 2: have Ronaldo Lopez against Kyle Gibson in Game one. Gibson's 152 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 2: a veteran for Saint Louis, he was with Baltimore for 153 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 2: many years. This should be a good pitching matchup. Let's 154 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 2: hope that Renaldo can keep it going. And then when 155 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 2: the Braves announced that Bryce Elder was going to make 156 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 2: the start on Wednesday night, it actually sounds like that 157 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 2: was going to be the plan regardless of the rain 158 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 2: out doubleheader. They were going to call up Bryce for 159 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 2: Wednesday and then push everybody else back a day, which 160 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 2: we of course know they're looking to do every time 161 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 2: they get the opportunity. I think whenever Bryce pitches, everybody 162 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 2: holds their breath a little bit. He's coming off a 163 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 2: not very good start with Gwenett, but before that he 164 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 2: was pitching really well, a lot of strikeouts and not 165 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 2: many walks, and then for Chris Sale on Thursday, I 166 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 2: am sure there'll be a lot of emotion. He came 167 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 2: over from the White Sox to Boston in twenty seventeen, 168 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 2: I believe, so a lot of time has passed, but 169 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 2: of course came up with Chicago so to be cool 170 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 2: for him to be back in his old stomping grounds. 171 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 2: But let's hope, especially with Ronaldo and Chris Sale on 172 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 2: the mound, the Braves can take at least two of 173 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 2: these games in the next thirty hours or so and 174 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 2: then get on home for a long home stand, which 175 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 2: I am sure everybody is looking forward. 176 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:15,559 Speaker 1: To absolutely And I can tell you this, While it's 177 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 1: going to be a very interesting thirty hours, the good 178 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 1: thing is is that the Braves are going to be 179 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: able to have a long home stand after that.

But I want to take a 234 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 5: bit of a step back, and I know you and 235 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 5: Brad have done this as well, but I don't want 236 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 5: to get too much into what y'all have already discussed, 237 00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 5: but I do want to say when comes to this 238 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 5: Braves team, I definitely think that over the next thirty hours, 239 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 5: you hope to get to these three games. 240 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 1: But the one big thing is is that you're really 241 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:14,720 Speaker 1: hoping that this Bras team doesn't allow for this unexpected 242 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 1: rain delay and now this you know kind of you know, 243 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: area of chaos in their schedule. You don't want it 244 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 1: to ruin the momentum of just how good they've been playing, 245 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: especially when it comes to how good the top of 246 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 1: the order has been producing. Now with Jared Kilnick at 247 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 1: the top of the lineup. 248 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I know it's not ideal to be sure, 249 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:37,559 Speaker 2: it's a lot of baseball in a short amount of time. Thankfully, 250 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 2: the flight from Saint Louis to Chicago is maybe an hour, 251 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 2: so it's it's not like they have to cross the 252 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 2: country and then cross back. But it's you know, the 253 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 2: Braves have been playing well. They won eight out of ten. 254 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 2: They should have won. Monday night's game, just ran into 255 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,559 Speaker 2: some bad luck and they were really a swing away, 256 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:57,559 Speaker 2: and really they were a couple of feet away from 257 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:01,839 Speaker 2: that game becoming a totally different ballgame. But at the 258 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 2: end of the day, you can't make excuses, and the 259 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 2: Cardinals are dealing with the exact same kind of scheduling. 260 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 2: Doubleheaders are never easy. But yeah, I have to hope 261 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,200 Speaker 2: the Braves keep rolling the way they've been rolling. And 262 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,199 Speaker 2: we talked about the pitching matchups. They have an opportunity 263 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 2: to really just take advantage of every time Sale and 264 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 2: Lopez are on the mound. They've given the Braves a 265 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 2: chance to win just about every time they've gone out there. 266 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 2: And let's hope the offense continues to hit the way 267 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 2: it has, especially before Monday night. It was encouraging that 268 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 2: the offense really kind of fought back in the last 269 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 2: two innings, put a bunch of runners on base. Ozzy 270 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 2: Alby's just missed a game tying home run on Monday 271 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 2: that would have been a lot of fun and would 272 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 2: have made things interesting and in that ninthitting rally, even 273 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 2: if they came up or run short, it was very 274 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,560 Speaker 2: much on par with what we've come to expect from 275 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 2: the Braves in recent years, where maybe they weren't playing 276 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 2: well for six or seven innings, but they just find 277 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,680 Speaker 2: a way to make things interesting late and kind of 278 00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:01,840 Speaker 2: give you fight even if you aren't going to ultimately 279 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 2: win the game. 280 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:05,680 Speaker 1: Absolutely, and and and the great thing is is that 281 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:07,440 Speaker 1: you have a bit more complished you know. Austin Riley 282 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 1: talked about it, you know again after Monday's game. You know, 283 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 1: even with the fact that they lost, that Braves definitely 284 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:15,559 Speaker 1: felt as in they were in the right position they did, 285 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 1: you know, when the underlio metrics showed it that their 286 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 1: approach at the plate, certainly this seemed to lead to 287 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 1: better results, but it just did not work out. But 288 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 1: of course, you know, Scott. The other you know, less 289 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: than positive news from Monday was that left handed Ray Kerr, 290 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 1: who had shown very good flashes both you know, the 291 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: starting rotation as well as a reliever. You know, he 292 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 1: was an underrated you know, part of the you know, 293 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 1: off season bevy of moves that Alex and popolass made. 294 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: He unfortunately, is the latest Brave that's gonna go under 295 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 1: you know, undergo Tommy John surgery. And you know we've 296 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: seen you know others that have gone this, Spencer Strider, 297 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 1: you know, Owen Murphy. You know, just it's crazy, just 298 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 1: the amount of pitchers all across baseball who were undergoing 299 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 1: you know, these Tommy John surgery. But for the Braves, 300 00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 1: while that is certainly negative injury news, we also are 301 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 1: starting to see a to positive injury news. Aj Mentor 302 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 1: seems to be working his way back, and Ian Anderson 303 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 1: seems to be, you know, starting to you know, put 304 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 1: you know, some you know innings together. I don't necessarily 305 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 1: know if he's anybody that they need to rely on, 306 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 1: you know, maybe until you know, August or later. But 307 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 1: the thing that I will ask is this, you know, 308 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 1: we're getting a month closer to the trade deadline with 309 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 1: the I think the Braids are perfectly fine if you know, 310 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 1: Sale and Lopez and Freed and Morton are healthy. I 311 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 1: think you're fine with that rotation going in the playoffs 312 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 1: that they're healthy. But does it appear to be with 313 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 1: all the injuries that the Braves have undergone through their 314 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 1: pitching staff. I know that they have a deep bullpen. 315 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 1: Do you think another arm that they could trust for 316 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 1: multiple innings in the playoffs? Does that become a bit 317 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:43,720 Speaker 1: more of a priority as we get closer to the 318 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 1: deadline or do you think they just need to stick 319 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 1: with maybe just going with the usual, you know, find 320 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 1: a reliever who could do better in Atlanta route instead 321 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: of just a multi inning guy. 322 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 2: I'm sure that Alexanthopolis is going to look under every 323 00:15:56,640 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 2: single rock to try to find pitching staff help ahead 324 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 2: of the trade deadline, whether that's in the rotation or 325 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 2: in the bullpen. The bullpen is an area that he 326 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 2: has addressed basically every year since he took over the job. 327 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 2: And while he hasn't made necessarily a big splash in 328 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 2: the rotation because usually the prices are really inflated and 329 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 2: you have to give up quite a bit of prospect capital, 330 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 2: he may feel the need to push in a couple 331 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 2: of chips depending on how the next five or six 332 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 2: weeks go ahead of the deadline, so we will see 333 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 2: it's going to be a big challenge for Entthopolis. Of 334 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 2: course he's going to have to look, presumably for an 335 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 2: outfielder Brad and I talked at length on the Sunday 336 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 2: Evening Show about shortstop and potentially addressing that position. And 337 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 2: then everybody in baseball who's trying to make the playoffs 338 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 2: is looking for pitching help. Come July, it's going to 339 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 2: be a really busy couple of weeks, and let's hope 340 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 2: he's able to make some impact editions. And on Ray 341 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 2: Kerr really a bummer. I know that I didn't love 342 00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 2: how the Braves used Kerr. I didn't like how they 343 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 2: were having him make starts suddenly when he's really never 344 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,439 Speaker 2: been a starter. He was exclusively a reliever with the 345 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 2: Padres last year, was basically a reliever through the first 346 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,680 Speaker 2: two months of the season, and then out of the blue, 347 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 2: they start making him a start harder and the results 348 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 2: were not good. And maybe he was not necessarily super 349 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 2: effective out of the bullpen, but he has good stuff. 350 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 2: He throws hard, he gets a lot of swing and miss, 351 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 2: and now Kerr is going to miss not only all 352 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:30,879 Speaker 2: of this year, but probably most, if not all, of 353 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 2: next season as well as he recovers from Tommy John. 354 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 2: It's really a bummer for Kerr. It has been a 355 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,959 Speaker 2: brutal year. Across Major League Baseball for elbow injuries, and 356 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,080 Speaker 2: sadly he is just yet another one added to that. 357 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 1: Itally and Scott, you know, I know that ray Kerr 358 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 1: probably wasn't just too big into the plans of the Braves, 359 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 1: you know, beyond this year. But I think that this 360 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:53,639 Speaker 1: is something that definitely, you know, Kindie, because you know 361 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,119 Speaker 1: Hurst and Walder, you know where we're still waiting to hear, 362 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 1: you know, him getting going back a j. Smith Stauber, 363 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:00,960 Speaker 1: you know, getting going back eventually, though his is an 364 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 1: oblique injury. The thing that I'm getting at, and most 365 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 1: importantly obviously Spencer Stryder. We already were talking about the 366 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:09,080 Speaker 1: Braves beyond this year having to you know, we talked 367 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 1: about Charlie Morton at the beginning of the show having 368 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 1: to fill two rotation spots if Morton retires and Freed 369 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,879 Speaker 1: likely goes off in free agency. Well, you were thinking 370 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,360 Speaker 1: maybe with some of the younger talents in the Brave system, 371 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 1: maybe they could use some of that depth finally in 372 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,200 Speaker 1: the rotation. But with Strider coming back from injury, others 373 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:27,440 Speaker 1: coming back from injury as well, it's not just about 374 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:30,680 Speaker 1: you feeling those spots now it's you also having to consider, hey, 375 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 1: we're dealing with some injuries as well. It just once 376 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:37,400 Speaker 1: again goes to show how at times unreliable and brutal 377 00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:40,360 Speaker 1: if you have to rely on your internal pitching, how 378 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 1: brutal that strategy can be. It's it's never what you 379 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,119 Speaker 1: think it's going to be, even a year in the future. 380 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:52,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, starting pitching is very much a year to year proposition. 381 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 2: You think about the Braves even just a couple of 382 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:58,120 Speaker 2: seasons ago. You think about Ian Anderson, you think about 383 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 2: Kyle Wright, you think about Michael so Roca, Tuki Tussaint, 384 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 2: Sean Newcomb. You go down the list, all of those 385 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,920 Speaker 2: arms look like they could potentially be long term fixtures 386 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 2: for the Braves. And what happened right injuries, under performance, 387 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:14,680 Speaker 2: Guys are out of the league, guys are no longer 388 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:19,520 Speaker 2: with the team. It's a brutal game. Not only finding 389 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 2: capable talented starting pitching talent, but then keeping them healthy 390 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 2: is so difficult with this rush of elbow and shoulder 391 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 2: injuries that we have seen. So obviously it is a 392 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 2: lengthy conversation for another day. What Alex is going to 393 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 2: do and what the twenty twenty five rotation might look like, 394 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,160 Speaker 2: but that is a consideration to be sure come trade 395 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 2: deadline time, knowing that Max Freed is about to become 396 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 2: a very rich man. And maybe it's not with the Braves. 397 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 2: And if Charlie Morton hangs them up, and you have 398 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 2: Spencer Strider coming back from elbow surgery, and you have 399 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 2: Chris Sale and Ronaldo Lopez who are just as susceptible 400 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 2: to an injury as anybody else in the major leagues, 401 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 2: there are a lot of questions on the and maybe 402 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:03,360 Speaker 2: we'll start to get a little bit of clarity here 403 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 2: ahead of the trade deadline. 404 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:07,399 Speaker 1: Don't mean to be you know, turn this into you know, 405 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 1: a potential what could be in terms of a negative sense, 406 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:13,639 Speaker 1: but definitely just to just just certainly hoping that the 407 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 1: injury bug, Lady luck finally shines down us instead of 408 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 1: the injury bug and we'll get a stretch here to 409 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 1: where the Braves will actually be able, you know, to 410 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 1: rely on their best talents without having to worry about 411 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,440 Speaker 1: health being an issue. But Scott, I know that there's 412 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: plenty to look forward to it. The other thing is 413 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 1: is that we turn right around after this thirty hours 414 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 1: of chaos. We turn right around and potentially out. I 415 00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:34,119 Speaker 1: don't necessarily know what the schedule is like yet for 416 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Atlanta series this weekend, but Brais fans are 417 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,920 Speaker 1: going to have a great opportunity because there I believe 418 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 1: they're definitely going to see Paul Skans in Atlanta. They 419 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:44,440 Speaker 1: may even be able to see Jared Jones. But talk 420 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 1: a bit about that, but also what they have to 421 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 1: look forward to when it comes to the rest of 422 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 1: this week on the Hammer Territory podcast. 423 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, if you have tickets, I believe on Saturday night 424 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:58,399 Speaker 2: is going to be Paul Skiings in Atlanta. It is 425 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 2: going to be electric. He is, of course the number 426 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:05,440 Speaker 2: one overall pick from last summer's draft, hitting one hundred 427 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:07,520 Speaker 2: and two miles an hour with his fastball. So if 428 00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 2: you have tickets, enjoy. If you don't have tickets, maybe 429 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 2: take a look at seat geek and use that code 430 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:15,639 Speaker 2: Hammer and try to get some discounted tickets because it 431 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 2: should be a lot of fun. The Pirates are not 432 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 2: a bad team that they're okay, they're below five hundred, 433 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 2: but they are not the one hundred and five lost 434 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 2: Pirates of a couple of years ago. So we've talked 435 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 2: about on the show now for a couple of weeks 436 00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 2: that if the Braves are really going to get back 437 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 2: to their winning ways and push to get back into 438 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:38,160 Speaker 2: the division race, and even if they can't take over 439 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 2: the East, really pad that wild card lead, they have 440 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 2: to take advantage of the lesser teams whenever they get 441 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 2: the opportunity. I would say that Pittsburgh is a lesser team, 442 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 2: even if they have a couple of really good starting pitchers. 443 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 2: But I am sure that after three road games and 444 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 2: thirty hours and going from Saint Louis to Chicago to 445 00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 2: Atlanta in a very short amount of time, the boys 446 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 2: will be having to be back home and it should 447 00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 2: be a really good weekend series at Truest. 448 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 1: Absolutely in scott and the rest of us are going 449 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:11,119 Speaker 1: to have you all covered and also some some surprise 450 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 1: but special guest appearances later on this week when it 451 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,880 Speaker 1: comes to the Hammer Territory podcast again part of the 452 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:21,679 Speaker 1: Foul Territory family of podcasts, and of course you can 453 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 1: now check out Foul Territory itself on Bally Sports Network. 454 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:29,080 Speaker 1: Make sure you check your local listings in across social 455 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 1: media for the times that it will be available with Scott, 456 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:35,359 Speaker 1: A bit of a shortened version of the show tonight, 457 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:37,639 Speaker 1: no game to talk about, but always a pleasure to 458 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 1: do this with you. Good that you're doing well. Anything 459 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 1: else before we close out the show for tonight. 460 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm glad we could squeeze one in. Sean. We 461 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 2: were gonna talk about a game tonight, and of course 462 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 2: mother nature had other ideas. I guess it got really 463 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 2: nasty in Saint Louis tonight with heavy rain and even 464 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,120 Speaker 2: some hail, so nobody wants to stick around and try 465 00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 2: to play through that. But we will be back with 466 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,159 Speaker 2: plenty of shows throughout the week.
