1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,040
Speaker 1: Talking Bays Ball.

2
00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:06,840
Speaker 2: It's our number one, our one of the Ben Maler Show.

3
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:10,760
Speaker 2: Welcome in on this Friday, the seventeenth day of October,

4
00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:15,920
Speaker 2: and today we wax loquacious about Major League Baseball. I

5
00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:17,880
Speaker 2: did want to say the Fifth Hour podcast is coming

6
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 2: up later today. I was inspired. There's some stories I'm

7
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,520
Speaker 2: ranting and raving on today's podcast, you know, just random

8
00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 2: things off the top of my mind. But I was

9
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:30,600
Speaker 2: inspired by something the Boston Celtics did. It triggered a

10
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 2: memory from years ago, very good memory I wanted to

11
00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 2: share with you that we'll talk about in the fifth

12
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:38,199
Speaker 2: Hour podcast. And some other random factoids. But here in

13
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 2: hour number one was the opener a tactical error for

14
00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 2: Pat Murphy's brew crew as they are now on life support.

15
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:50,920
Speaker 2: The Brewers are down three in the National League Championship Series. Also,

16
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 2: with the Dodgers being in the driver's seat, is there

17
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 2: anything at all to nitpick about the Dodgers' performance in

18
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 2: the National League Championship Series is as they are dominating

19
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:05,560
Speaker 2: in the playoffs, eight and one record in the postseason. Also,

20
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 2: if you were the Detroit Tigers, would you pay Trek

21
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:13,279
Speaker 2: Scooble four hundred million dollars. The Tigers offered him about

22
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 2: two hundred million dollars less than that last year. It's

23
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 2: a gigantic pay gap. We'll talk about that as well.

24
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 2: Here it is our number one.

25
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 1: It was an odd brew. If you will.

26
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:35,039
Speaker 2: Welcome in the beginning, come another night of the Ben

27
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 2: Malors Show. We are in the air everywhere, light minded

Speaker 2: the audio beasts the world famous Fox Sports Radio studios

Speaker 2: Texas and Brian in Colorado all approved this message and

35
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 2: this portion of the Ben Malshow and Fox made possible

36
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 2: in part by our friends at ti Iraq.

37
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 1: For over forty years, ti.

38
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 2: I Raq has been helping customers like Alf and ferg

Speaker 2: Dog find the right tires for how, what and where

Speaker 2: dot Com the way tire buying show me, and we're

44
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 2: back at it. And so I was at the intersection.

45
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 2: I could have made a right turn, I could have

46
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 2: made a left turn. I decided to go right down

47
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,679
Speaker 2: the middle and not make any turn. So I made

48
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 2: that editorial decision based on the feedback that I have gotten.

49
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 2: We had a football game it was supposed to suck,

50
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,640
Speaker 2: that didn't suck. That was actually a decent game. And

51
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 2: so we'll get to that at some point throughout the night.

52
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 2: Obviously the American League, which wasn't much of a game.

53
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:10,919
Speaker 2: We're gonna start in the National League, which also wasn't

54
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:12,919
Speaker 2: much of a game. But we got to start somewhere,

55
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 2: and we have a blank audio canvas, four hours of

56
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 2: talk radio to take us through the overnight hours here.

57
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 2: So our lead is in La A, sun soaked there.

58
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 2: There's nothing like getting people into Dodgers Stadium in the

59
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 2: middle of downtown Los Angeles, hit rush hour. Great scheduling,

60
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 2: great scheduling. They do it for television, So sun soaked,

61
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 2: late afternoon there in the middle of rush hour traffic.

62
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 2: The maz Now he didn't start because the Brewers are idiots,

63
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 2: but they he was the guy leading the Brewers traveling

64
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 2: circus in due Chavez Ravine in a gotta have it

65
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 2: and this really was a gotta have it game for

66
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 2: the Brewers, a matchup with the Dodgers.

67
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 1: Game three.

68
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 2: You blew the first two games at home. You gotta win,

69
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 2: Milwaukee looking to dig out of a hole.

70
00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 1: How did that go? Well?

71
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 2: If you watched it, you know, oh what happened, But

72
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 2: maybe you were busy doing something. I don't know what

73
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 2: you're up to. Tommy Tanks delivered Tommy Edmund, the hero

74
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 2: from last year's playoffs in the NLCS, to Tommy Edmund.

75
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 2: Here the tie breaking single off the rookie flamethrower Jacob

76
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 2: Mazeroski the mizz in their two run, two run sixth inning,

77
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:25,279
Speaker 2: and the Dodgers able to out maneuver the brew Crew

78
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:29,039
Speaker 2: three to one. And so there's a very fat woman

79
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 2: who's warming up her vocal cords right now as the

80
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 2: Doyers have a three games to none lead in the

81
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 2: best of seven National League Championship Series. That tells me

82
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 2: that the Dodgers need to win one more game if

83
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,680
Speaker 2: my malor math is correct. And so the Dodgers, who

84
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 2: underachieved during the regular season used load management, left starting

85
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:54,040
Speaker 2: pitchers out for months at a time. Was a rag

86
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 2: tag lineup much of the regular season. They needed so

87
00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,840
Speaker 2: much to win a wild Card series against the low

88
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 2: Cincinnati Reds to start out the postseason marathon. And here

89
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,599
Speaker 2: we are, the Dodgers have played nine playoff games. And

90
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:12,160
Speaker 2: all those really sexy stories that were written before the

91
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 2: baseball season about how great the Dodgers were, well, they're

92
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,280
Speaker 2: looking like it now. They didn't look like it in

93
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 2: the regular season for much of it. With the Dodgers

94
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 2: are now in position. They're in the pole position to

95
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:30,159
Speaker 2: become the first defending champion to reach the World Series

96
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 2: in sixteen years.

97
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:32,920
Speaker 1: I was barely.

98
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 2: Alive the last time this happened. No defending champion has

99
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:39,600
Speaker 2: gotten back to the Fall Classic since the Ryan Howard

100
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 2: Jimmy Rollins Philadelphia Phillies back in nine and no team's

101
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,520
Speaker 2: won consecutive. You gotta get all the way back to

102
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 2: the nineties. Holy crap on a cracker, Batman, you got

103
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:55,679
Speaker 2: to go back to the nineties. The Tory Jeter Bernie

104
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 2: Williams Yankees.

105
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:57,839
Speaker 1: From ninety eight.

106
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:01,000
Speaker 2: To two thousand, the Yankees took three championships in a row.

107
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:01,360
Speaker 1: Now.

108
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,039
Speaker 2: The better story though, is in the losing locker room,

109
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 2: although barely the better story at this point, barely.

110
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:08,480
Speaker 1: The better story.

111
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 2: So Brewers manager Pat Murphy, who I kind of like

112
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 2: this guy, right, It seems like my kind of guy.

113
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 2: He seems like the kind of guy you want to

114
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,679
Speaker 2: hang out with. Seems like it seems like a good dude.

115
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:17,840
Speaker 1: He's taking a.

116
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,280
Speaker 2: Lot of crap, a lot of backlash. If you saw

117
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 2: the game, you don't what I'm talking about. He made

118
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,479
Speaker 2: the decision, and I'm sure this wasn't his decision. It

119
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 2: was somebody ahead of him, but they made the decision

120
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 2: collectively to start Aaron Ashby as the opener, and that

121
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,840
Speaker 2: that's pretty good jumping off points. I think we'll start

122
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 2: with that, so let us discuss the question. Was the opener,

123
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,920
Speaker 2: if you will, a tactical error by Pat Murphy and

124
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 2: the brew crew in game number three of the NLCS.

125
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 1: So my thoughts was about, that's right. I've got I've got.

126
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 2: Warner Brothers, Doogie Howser MD and refurbished iPhone, and we

127
00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:01,040
Speaker 2: will combine all of these things together and we are

128
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,799
Speaker 2: going to make fireballs, because it's gonna take fire balls

129
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:06,920
Speaker 2: for the brew crew to come back to answer the question.

130
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 2: Was this strategy of going with the opener, meaning Aaron

131
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 2: Ashby a tactical error. Now you could say this is

132
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:16,960
Speaker 2: after the fact, but I'm nodding my head. Yes, I

133
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 2: have long died on the mountain of despising these openers.

134
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 2: Well you're such a boomer. Well I'm not a boomer. However,

135
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 2: back in my day we call this a spring training game.

136
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 2: Now they came up with a term for it. So, well,

137
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 2: it's an opener, you know, because we're smarter than everyone.

138
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 2: We're the smartest people in the room. Okay, So Pat

139
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 2: Murphy and the Brewers Nerds got cute. They started as

140
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 2: cat Aaron Ashby as the opener, and it went exactly

141
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 2: how you would expect things to go when you let

142
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 2: the analytical department cosplay and do the strategy.

143
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 1: Here he got how many outs? One out?

144
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 2: One out, one more out than you got, one more

145
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 2: out than I got. Before all of a sudden, Pat

146
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 2: Murphy's oh, you know what I gotta I gotta get

147
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 2: this guy out of the game.

148
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, one out.

149
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 2: And then they brought them is in Jacob Mazaraski, who

150
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 2: was thrown really pretty much into a blender.

151
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,559
Speaker 1: Uh, here you go. The whole point of the opener

152
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 1: is like, Okay, we're gonna get you in. There be

153
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 1: a soft landing. Uh no. Uh. Now, the Brewers are averaging,

154
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 1: if my math is correct, one run a game.

155
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 2: In the league Championship Series. They were one of the

156
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 2: top offensive teams in baseball this year. And starting Aaron

157
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:33,600
Speaker 2: Ashby not the greatest solution, not the way to solve

158
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,440
Speaker 2: the Rubik's QB here for the Brewers. The again, the

159
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:40,679
Speaker 2: point is you start the opener, you give the the

160
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,559
Speaker 2: bulk guy, because why not a soft spot to come in.

161
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,840
Speaker 2: But instead, as we said Pat Murphy, uh, the Brewers

162
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 2: lit the match and they dropped it on the bullpen

163
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 2: there and the dirty little secret when you run the

164
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 2: openers out, it is unbecoming in the postseason. It's just embarrassing, right,

165
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 2: And the Dodgers have done it, the Yankees have done it.

166
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:06,400
Speaker 2: It's just embarrassing. It's usually because you have a roster

167
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 2: that is devoid of elite talent. Right, you don't have

168
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 2: the horses. You just don't have the horsepower, and the

169
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 2: Brewers don't.

170
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:14,960
Speaker 1: They don't.

171
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 2: Lost Brandon Woodrif to injury and so that's fine. But

172
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 2: the openers, I don't like them anything outside of the

173
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:23,920
Speaker 2: Cactus League of the grape Fruit League, if you want

174
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:24,680
Speaker 2: to make an argument.

175
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 1: They work in April and May.

176
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 2: Okay, not in the National League Championship Series, not against

177
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 2: a real lineup.

178
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 1: And I don't think the Dodgers did anything special.

179
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,560
Speaker 2: People are like, oh, I told you malor the Dodgers

180
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:40,680
Speaker 2: are gonna gonna flip the switch, and they.

181
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 1: Flipped the switch.

182
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think the offense is all that good. Actually,

183
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:51,959
Speaker 2: through sixteen pitches. Sixteen pitches, what a bleeping joke.

184
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:53,839
Speaker 1: Got one out, as we said.

185
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,440
Speaker 2: And the Milwaukee plan, well that was in the toilet,

186
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 2: that was in the crapper before most most of the

187
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,960
Speaker 2: people had gotten through the traffic into the ballpark.

188
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 1: And it's the classic.

189
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 2: Move, I'm smarter than you, and I'm smarter than everyone

190
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 2: else who's in this little.

191
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,280
Speaker 1: Room we're in and all that now even more embarrassing. Though.

192
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:18,600
Speaker 2: The brew crew had the dream set up, so he said, well,

193
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 2: it didn't work out with Ashby, and the miz came

194
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 2: in and he actually did a pretty good job for

195
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 2: a while. The thing that blows you away about this, though,

196
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,440
Speaker 2: is you figured the Brewers offense hadn't been very good,

197
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 2: and here's an opportunity because glass Noow did not make

198
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:38,559
Speaker 2: it deep, deep into the game, and so you were

199
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 2: given a lot of time against the Dodgers' bullpen, and

200
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 2: the brew crew had an atomic elbow dropped on them

201
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:51,440
Speaker 2: by the Dodger bullpen. Who saw that coming. You wouldn't

202
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 2: trust those guys to guard a hot dog stand.

203
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 1: And they went out there and did fine.

204
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 2: They twisted the Brewers lineup into pretzels, and so three

205
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:03,080
Speaker 2: games into the National League Championship Series and everything the

206
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 2: Brewers had been pesky, determined, annoying, all that good stuff.

207
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,839
Speaker 2: Now it's like a Warner Brothers cartoon, Pepe the pew

208
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 2: pu What stinks?

209
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:15,599
Speaker 1: Milwaukee?

210
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 2: Three runs, nine hits, twenty seven innings of baseball. William

211
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 2: Contreras hitless in Game three for Milwaukee, part of a

212
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 2: two for thirty three combined performance for the likes of

213
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 2: Christian Yelich and Bryce Terrang who's still pogo sticking out

214
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 2: of the way of a pitch in Game one that

215
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,680
Speaker 2: would have tied the game and would have allowed the

216
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 2: Brewers to go win the game in xt ratings, but

217
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 2: alas he decided not to get hit by the pitch

218
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 2: and so just two for thirty three a couple of singles.

219
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 2: Andrew Vaughn went zero for four with the strikeout and

220
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 2: left some runners in scoring position there. So I believe,

221
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 2: if I'm not mistaken, he does not have a hit

222
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 2: in the NLCS. So the Brewers right now are drowning.

223
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 2: They're not drowning in the Pacific Ocean. They're drowning in

224
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:07,439
Speaker 2: flop sweat. The lack of discipline at the plate and

225
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,720
Speaker 2: the fact that they've got guys chasing pitches out of

226
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:15,319
Speaker 2: the zone outside the strike zone a stark contrast when

227
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 2: you juxtapose what they had been in the regular season

228
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:21,559
Speaker 2: with plate discipline, and again the word is unbecoming.

229
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 1: Now turning the page on that.

230
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,960
Speaker 2: From the LA side of things, the question is there

231
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 2: anything anything at all? The Dodgers are eight and one

232
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,199
Speaker 2: in the playoffs, they're three to zero in the NLCS.

233
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 2: Is anything we can nitpick about the Dodgers' performance? So,

234
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 2: after a thorough deliberation, I've made the editorial decision that

235
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 2: there is there's one thing that is not right about

236
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,319
Speaker 2: the Dodgers, and here it is. You know what, I'm

237
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 2: about to say, do you know, No, you don't. Okay,

238
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 2: the Dodgers are playing such dominant baseball right now, it's

239
00:12:56,360 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 2: bad television. It's just bad TV. You've got Blake Snell.

240
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 2: Bro I'm risking my life bra Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Tyler Glasner,

241
00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,320
Speaker 2: who wasn't as good as those guys, but collectively they

242
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:14,560
Speaker 2: have gone doogie howser MD and they have put the

243
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:18,880
Speaker 2: people watching the NLCS into a medically induced coma. Watching

244
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 2: the Milwaukee Brewers attempt to hitting Dodgers' er now from

245
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:23,080
Speaker 2: starters is under two.

246
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:24,520
Speaker 1: It's barely a run and a half.

247
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:28,439
Speaker 2: It has been a master class, an absolute master class

248
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,080
Speaker 2: on starting pitching, the Dodgers' rotation.

249
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 1: And the bullpen.

250
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 2: In the bullpen, I can't believe I'm saying that the

251
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 2: bullpen if it lights out. The Brewers collectively have a

252
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 2: one forty three batting average. I didn't play major league baseball.

253
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 2: I don't think that's good. I don't think that's good.

254
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:48,400
Speaker 2: Their op on base plus slugging is two to three,

255
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,720
Speaker 2: which I also think is not good. The slugging percentage alone.

256
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 1: Is at a buck ninety, at a buck ninety and

257
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:56,199
Speaker 1: the three runs.

258
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:59,200
Speaker 2: So the Dodgers are hitting on all cylinders and it's

259
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 2: not a great product to watch right now. And it's

260
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,320
Speaker 2: just a matter of when. It's not a matter of

261
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:05,880
Speaker 2: if they get back to the World Series. And while

262
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 2: Toronto and Seattle appear to be in a catfight, the

263
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 2: Dodgers can soon sneak in a nice vacation, go to

264
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 2: Hawaii if they want, for a couple of days before

265
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 2: the Fall Classic. Now, teams take a three to nothing

266
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 2: lead in any best of seven postseason series have gone

267
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 2: on to win forty out of forty one times. That

268
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 2: is a ninety seven point six percent success rate. Thirty

269
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 2: one sweeps out of the forty one. Now, the one

270
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:35,840
Speaker 2: time that didn't happen. If you're old enough to have

271
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 2: remembered way back, I can't believe it's been twenty one years.

272
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 2: Holy crap, But the four American League Championship Series, there

273
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 2: was this team called the Boston Red Sox, and they

274
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 2: had this thing called the Curse of the Bambino, and they.

275
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 1: Did the thing they weren't supposed to do at the time.

276
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 1: They weren't supposed to do it.

277
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 2: They came all the way back and they got it

278
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 2: done Red Sox against the Yankees that year. There was

279
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,240
Speaker 2: this little pesky guy the Red Sox picked up in

280
00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:00,840
Speaker 2: a cash deal from the Dodgers who was a pinch

281
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 2: runner named Dave Roberts, who sparked the Red Sox comeback

282
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,480
Speaker 2: with a steal off Mariano Rivera. I don't know what

283
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 2: happened to Dave Roberts. I don't know what he's doing now.

284
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 2: I think he turned into a sock puppet. All right,

285
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 2: last word. So we're gonna move away from the NLCS

286
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 2: because there's not much more to dissect. Interesting story out

287
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 2: at Detroit where the Tigers have been excommunicated from the playoffs.

288
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 2: They lost to Seattle, and now there's some chatter that

289
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 2: the Tigers are in financial peril as they have to

290
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 2: close the gap.

291
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 1: And oh what a gap.

292
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 2: It is the largest gap in negotiation history. That is,

293
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:40,720
Speaker 2: if they plan on retaining long term, long term these

294
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:43,920
Speaker 2: services of dominating, dominating starting.

295
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 1: Pitcher Terrek School. So I saw this, I thought this

296
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 1: was interesting.

297
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 2: Now, the story bouncing around the pinball machine is that

298
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 2: Detroit offered Schooble less than the one hundred and seventy

299
00:15:56,360 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 2: million that the Red Sox signed Garrett Crochet two, So

300
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 2: they wanted to pay him less than one hundred and

301
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 2: seventy which seems.

302
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 1: Like a lot of money to me, I know.

303
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 2: And the Schooble, Now, the starting point for Schooble is

304
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 2: four hundred million dollars. Now that means, if you do

305
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 2: the calculation, the Tigers and the player are two hundred

306
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 2: million dollars off in the negotiation. So the question you

307
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 2: make the call, if you were the Tigers, would you

308
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:32,560
Speaker 2: pay one starting pitcher in this case, Derek Scougle four

309
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:36,560
Speaker 2: hundred million dollars plus. Now we always preface these things

310
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 2: by saying that it's not my money. It's not And

311
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 2: you can crunch the numbers and figure out how many

312
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 2: how many advertising dollars do you have to make from TV?

313
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 2: How much money do you have to make from radio?

314
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:50,840
Speaker 2: How much money do you have to make selling hot

315
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 2: dogs to make it work. I look at it and

316
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 2: my eyes get really large, and I just say, well,

317
00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 2: that's a boondoggle, is what that is.

318
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:03,280
Speaker 1: That's just a financial boom doggle And I wouldn't do it.

319
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:03,960
Speaker 1: And here's why.

320
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:08,919
Speaker 2: Scooble, to me, has a pre existing condition, and the

321
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 2: fact that he's got, he's got already had elbow issues

322
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:13,640
Speaker 2: and arm issues.

323
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,359
Speaker 1: He's fun to watch, he's great to watch.

324
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 2: He's got the gas and the breaking pitches and all

325
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 2: that has got nasty stuff, as the kids say.

326
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:25,280
Speaker 1: But he will turn twenty nine next.

327
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,000
Speaker 2: Month, which is not old in the real world, but

328
00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:30,359
Speaker 2: in sports it's kind of middle aged. He's already had

329
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 2: the TJ, the Tommy John surgery and been through the

330
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:38,679
Speaker 2: operating room. So that's not just a blank piece of

331
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 2: paper situation. This is a refurbished iPhone. It's like, oh right,

332
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:47,320
Speaker 2: he had the Tommy John schooble. He's pitching very well.

333
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 2: So think about like a refurbished iPhone. You wouldn't pay

334
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:53,199
Speaker 2: full price for a refurbished iPhone. The iPhone has a

335
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:58,439
Speaker 2: crack screen, and that does say certified pre owned. It

336
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:01,639
Speaker 2: says that now the Komodo Dragon in the room, the

337
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 2: Komodo Dragon room scooble is not a whatever it takes warhorse,

338
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,399
Speaker 2: And there's nothing nobody liked that in baseball. But like,

339
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,280
Speaker 2: if I could justify it, here's how I would justify. So, Okay,

340
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 2: I'm gonna pay this guy four hundred million because I

341
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,399
Speaker 2: know if I need him to go one hundred and

342
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 2: twenty one hundred and thirty hundred and forty pitches. He

343
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 2: will do that, and he'll throw one hundred and thirty

344
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:28,240
Speaker 2: pitches into that cold Michigan night sky like a modern

345
00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:32,359
Speaker 2: day Jack Morris going out there, big balls and all that.

346
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:36,119
Speaker 2: But no, the Tigers in the American League Divisional round.

347
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 2: He started two games and the Tigers lost both. They

348
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 2: lost both in large part because he was a ninety

349
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:47,840
Speaker 2: nine one hundred pitch guy and ninety nine hundred and

350
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 2: one pitches that's it and has to come out of

351
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 2: the game because he's very delicate. And for four hundred

352
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:57,280
Speaker 2: million dollars, you better give me Shakespeare on the mound

353
00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:00,919
Speaker 2: and go above and beyond, go the extra mile and

354
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 2: the Monster contract. I know the Monster contracts are always

355
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:04,240
Speaker 2: lost leaders.

356
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,399
Speaker 1: You're not gonna make money on it, you know, just not.

357
00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 1: You're not paying for the whole ride.

358
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:15,440
Speaker 2: You're paying for the front seat at the amusement park,

359
00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:19,080
Speaker 2: and you're hoping the thing doesn't break down halfway through

360
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:23,479
Speaker 2: the Loop de Loube on the roller coaster. Somebody, we know,

361
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:26,200
Speaker 2: somebody's gonna do it. As I sit here and say, oh,

362
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,120
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna pay him. Yeah, it's not my money.

363
00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:31,040
Speaker 2: I wouldn't pay him, and I'm skeptical whether the Tigers

364
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 2: are gonna pay him, which means if they're not gonna

365
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:36,400
Speaker 2: pay him, then all of a sudden, the trade thing

366
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 2: becomes a possibility. You never get fair return on investment

367
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:41,679
Speaker 2: with those kind of things, so that's a problem. But

368
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 2: there's some owner who's going to light that match and

369
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 2: toss it on the pile of money and make sure

370
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:50,480
Speaker 2: gasoline is all over it and hope the baseball gods

371
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 2: don't turn the schoobal elbow into or agami by year

372
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,119
Speaker 2: four of the contract. So again, we love the player,

373
00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 2: it's not my deal. I just think any starting pitcher

374
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,960
Speaker 2: the wait baseball's played today, where the value is placed

375
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,359
Speaker 2: on the bullpen, I just I wouldn't do it.

376
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 1: Ald. What about the Dodgers.

377
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 2: Okay, the Dodgers have had a good run here in

378
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:13,280
Speaker 2: the NLCS, and it's a little different for them because

379
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:16,120
Speaker 2: they've gotten money to burn because of how they gouge

380
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:18,199
Speaker 2: their fans with tickets and all that and parking at

381
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 2: Dodger Stadium. But there's a little different situation anyway, It

382
00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:22,440
Speaker 2: is the Ben Malor Show.

383
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,560
Speaker 1: If you would like to be part of this, you can.

384
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,120
Speaker 2: Join us right now at eight seven seven ninety nine

385
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 2: on FoST. You also talk about the American League where

386
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:33,439
Speaker 2: Toronto is dead up. Now they've squared the books on

387
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:36,879
Speaker 2: the Mariners again, more evidence that momentum is bull crap

388
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 2: because y'all told me that they had all the momentum.

389
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,160
Speaker 2: Oh they can't be stopped, oh my, oh my, until

390
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 2: they got back home.

391
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:44,880
Speaker 1: They must hit their families.

392
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:51,000
Speaker 2: And then also how about they Sincinnatty Bungals the Bengals.

393
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,640
Speaker 2: If you watch Benny versus the Penny, the appetizer, Benny

394
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,399
Speaker 2: versus the penny, we gave you Cincinnati on that, so

395
00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 2: hopefully you want a little bit of cash ola. As

396
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:01,920
Speaker 2: the ben Gals get the win. I didn't think they'd

397
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:03,600
Speaker 2: win the game out right, I thought they'd cover the number.

398
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 2: But the Cincinnati Bengals on a late drive in a

399
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:10,440
Speaker 2: game winning field goal as time essentially ran out, they

400
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 2: win the game. And so that is a bad loss.

401
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 2: That is a stinging loss for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Take
