1
00:00:01,800 --> 00:00:02,440
Speaker 1: Wanted to pull.

2
00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 2: It's all.

3
00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:10,160
Speaker 3: All right, Welcome back everybody. Monday, March thirty, first, the

4
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:14,280
Speaker 3: final day of March. We got April baseball beginning this week.

5
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:19,599
Speaker 3: Uh oh, hang on just a second, we got audio

6
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:21,959
Speaker 3: in the background there. Sorry, gotta take care of that.

7
00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 3: It's early in the season for me too. First series

8
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:28,360
Speaker 3: of the season in the books and three and zero.

9
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 3: As Joe Girardi would say, it's what you want. I

10
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 3: mentioned a few times before that I watched the games

11
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 3: differently now that I'm doing the podcast than if I

12
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,560
Speaker 3: would when I was a fan. You know, when something

13
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 3: happens in the game, I have to take down the

14
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 3: game notes. You know, somebody hits a home run, I

15
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:49,280
Speaker 3: gotta go seek out the exit velocity and you know

16
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 3: things like that. I have to get some stats and

17
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 3: do all the visuals that go along with it. So

18
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:58,560
Speaker 3: usually I have to watch the games, you know, in

19
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 3: front of my computer or on the couch with a

20
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 3: couple of computers, you know, laptop iPad in front of me.

21
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 3: I have this device called the Apple Vision Pro, which

22
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 3: is amazing for watching sports and movies. But I was

23
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 3: upset because last year I didn't really get to do it.

24
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 3: Because you can't really take notes in it, right, you

25
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 3: can't really, I mean you can, it's just very difficult

26
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 3: and it slows you down, and I can't go back

27
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 3: and forth to the computer. But what I've started doing,

28
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 3: and if you have the AVP, this is great. I

29
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:32,759
Speaker 3: go to watch the Yankees avenue highlights from Dan Rourke

30
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 3: and they're usually like ten to fifteen minutes long, which

31
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 3: is like the perfect watch session in one of those

32
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 3: things because they're kind of heavy and I basically re

33
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:43,039
Speaker 3: experienced the game in the morning. So that's actually I've

34
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 3: been watching that to get ready for these voicemail shows

35
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 3: in the morning, just to keep the game kind of

36
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 3: fresh in my mind. And I got to say, it

37
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 3: was really enjoyable watching all of the highlights from the

38
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 3: entire weekend, all of the home runs that the Yankees

39
00:01:56,720 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 3: hit this morning, and they have been absolutely matching the

40
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 3: baseball fifteen home runs. Oh, we got an extra thing

41
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 3: on the screen. Okay, we're still working out the kinks here, folks.

42
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 3: Let me take care of that real quick opening comments

43
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 3: close it bam, all right, So thirty six runs they

44
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 3: dropped on the Brewers this weekend. There's been a lot

45
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:23,919
Speaker 3: of talk about torpedo bats, but I see that other

46
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 3: players around the league are starting to use them already.

47
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 3: We had Francisco Lindor using one. We had a great

48
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 3: call from one of the callers yesterday that said, you know,

49
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 3: it's time for the hitters to innovate. Right. The pitchers

50
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 3: have been innovating for years, but baseball's like a pendulum.

51
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 3: It goes back and forth between offense and pitching. At

52
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 3: one point, they had to lower the mound to allow

53
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 3: for more offense, and then we had, you know, the

54
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 3: steroid era, and you know, if you had a four era,

55
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 3: you were pretty solid, and then you had basically sticky

56
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 3: substance era where there was like a no hitter every week.

57
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,079
Speaker 3: Right in the last couple of years, velocity is way up,

58
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 3: and now the next thing is going to be more

59
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,799
Speaker 3: innovation in the bats, and as long as it's legal,

60
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 3: you're going to see it. The Yankees may have been first,

61
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:13,920
Speaker 3: but they're not going to be the only team that

62
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 3: does this. Right. If it's successful, you're going to see

63
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 3: more people doing it. The fact that it was invented

64
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 3: by a Yankees employee doesn't mean the rest of the

65
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,640
Speaker 3: league can't use it or won't use it, but it

66
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 3: does mean that they got to it first, and so

67
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 3: far the results have been great. Jazz Chisholm has been

68
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 3: smoking the baseball. He looks really comfortable. We got some

69
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 3: calls about him Judge not using it, and Judge still

70
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 3: absolutely insane. Seventy four watches on. Seventy four is a

71
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 3: legit possibility. You know, back in twenty twenty two, breaking

72
00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 3: Maris's home run record was fun, but it didn't get

73
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 3: the coverage that's something like McGuire got or Bond's got

74
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 3: when they broke the record, because the record was, you know,

75
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 3: seventy three home runs from Bonds was seen as almost unattainable,

76
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 3: and he still came twelve short of breaking the record

77
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 3: in twenty twenty two. But he's off to such a

78
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 3: fast start, and it seems like he gets better and

79
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,479
Speaker 3: better every year and gets more efficient at hitting the

80
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,920
Speaker 3: ball in the air, and with his high exit velocity,

81
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 3: that's gonna lead to so many home runs if he

82
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 3: stays healthy. Seventy four is legitimately on the table. And

83
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:43,119
Speaker 3: I don't know about you guys, but that would be

84
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 3: one of the highlights of my life to see a

85
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,840
Speaker 3: Yankee break the home run record. I feel like I

86
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 3: could die a happy man if I see Judge hit

87
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 3: seventy four, especially if the Yankees can win a World

88
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 3: Series too. But if you say seventy four right now,

89
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 3: you're not crazy. We had a number of people comment

90
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:10,840
Speaker 3: about it, call about it. What he's doing over the

91
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 3: last several years was already insane, but this year he

92
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 3: looks like he is legitimately on a revenge tour, on

93
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 3: a mission. He came out of the gate on fire

94
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 3: after doing nothing all spring. That just goes to show

95
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 3: you you can't worry about what happens in spring training.

96
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 3: As long as everybody's healthy. It's you know, the veterans.

97
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 3: Once the season starts, it's a different ballgame. Judge. Look,

98
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 3: you have to put him in the conversation of the

99
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 3: greatest hitters ever. He does things that only the greatest

100
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 3: hitters have done. But the one thing on his resume

101
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 3: that I you know, that does not in terms of

102
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:50,039
Speaker 3: hitting home runs, that he does not have, is the

103
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 3: MLB record. He doesn't have a four home run game.

104
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 3: He almost had one. He's got now three three home

105
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,280
Speaker 3: run games. Wouldn't shock me if he hits a four

106
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,280
Speaker 3: home run game. It's point and the fact that you know,

107
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:06,280
Speaker 3: they kept pitching to him after he had three was

108
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,719
Speaker 3: insanity because he was clearly locked in. And then yesterday

109
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:11,440
Speaker 3: he goes deep and then they just they said, you

110
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 3: know what, We're done with this guy.

111
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:14,160
Speaker 1: What dotten.

112
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 3: And they stopped pitching to him. But seventy four you

113
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:24,480
Speaker 3: could see it, You really could see it. Let's talk

114
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 3: a little bit about the big three for the d Backs.

115
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 3: They got some good pitching.

116
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 4: Man.

117
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 3: I know that the Yankees put up some runs against

118
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 3: the Brewers, but the d Backs are a better pitching

119
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 3: team than the Brewers. Let's take a look at some

120
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:46,280
Speaker 3: of the numbers here, powered by Inside Edge, call it

121
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 3: the data dive. Corbyn Burns he locates his fastball inside

122
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 3: seventy five percent of the time, at least last year

123
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,160
Speaker 3: he did. He has not thrown a pitch yet this year.

124
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 3: His debut will be against the Yankees. That is the

125
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:02,839
Speaker 3: highest amongks starting pitchers in the major leagues, and that

126
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 3: could backfire against some of these Yankees. Right now, we'll

127
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 3: talk a little bit about Ben Rice. He is smoking

128
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 3: the baseball and he's made some adjustments to get to

129
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 3: that inside pitch. Obviously, judge hitting anything you throw up

130
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 3: there right now, if it's in the strike zone and

131
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 3: jazz Chisholm, you don't want to come inside on Jazz

132
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 3: Chishm right now. Merrill Kelly opponents have a hard hit

133
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 3: rate of fifty two percent against Merrill Kelly on fastballs

134
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 3: over the last couple of years. That is the third

135
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 3: highest amongst starting pitchers with at least one hundred and

136
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 3: thirty innings pitched. So look for the Yankees to be

137
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 3: hunting fastballs. They're going to be trying to jump his fastball,

138
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 3: especially if it's early in the count, and you could

139
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 3: see some more home runs. If if there's going to

140
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 3: be a day full of home runs again in the

141
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 3: Diamondback Series, it's going to be against Merrill Kelly. And

142
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 3: then Zach Gallon. I wouldn't count on too many home

143
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 3: runs against him. He locates the fastball down in the

144
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 3: zone forty six point three percent of the time last year,

145
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 3: highest amongst starting pitchers in Major League Baseball, and the

146
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 3: league average is twenty four percent, So he's well above

147
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 3: league average in terms of, uh, you know, locating that

148
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 3: ball down in the zone. Luis Tejada says, your mouth

149
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 3: to God's ears. I'm assuming you mean the no Stra

150
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 3: Derek prediction and then Louis Penafield. But another super chat,

151
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 3: says Yankee sweep this series. I noticed some small ball

152
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 3: and fundamental base running. Keep it up. Absolutely. The base

153
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 3: running has been terrific, big contributors in Bellinger. I mean,

154
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,320
Speaker 3: I think the Martian has run the base as well.

155
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,839
Speaker 3: Even Goldschmid when he's been on his run, he looks

156
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,560
Speaker 3: like an actual baseball player. All right, let's move on

157
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 3: real quick to the no Stra Derik prediction, and so

158
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,079
Speaker 3: far this season, no Stra Derek hitting one thousand, one

159
00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:01,200
Speaker 3: for one. The first prediction was that Paul Goldschmid would

160
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 3: hit a home run off of Nestor Cortes. He did.

161
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 3: I wouldn't count on be it right every time, but

162
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 3: we got it today or whatever the day was, Saturday, Friday, Saturday. Yeah,

163
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 3: So my prediction for tomorrow is ben Rice will hit

164
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 3: a home run. Ben Rice will go deep. As I

165
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:31,680
Speaker 3: mentioned Corbyn Burns throwing inside a lot, working the pitch

166
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 3: off the inside part of the plate. Ben Rice used

167
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 3: to have a hole there, but he's getting to that

168
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 3: pitch now. He has adjusted where his hands are and

169
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,200
Speaker 3: he's much more compact, and he's getting to that pitch.

170
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:48,440
Speaker 3: If you look at the home run that he hit

171
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:50,680
Speaker 3: yesterday as I watched on my magic hat this morning,

172
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 3: that pitch was inside off the plate and he put

173
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,480
Speaker 3: it in the second deck. Last year, he swings over

174
00:09:56,520 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 3: that pitch one hundred percent, and I I think that

175
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 3: it's going to take a trip through the league of

176
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 3: you know, him hammering those pitches before the league realizes

177
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 3: we got to figure something else out. And Corbyn Burns

178
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 3: is such a good pitcher, he's not gonna adjust his

179
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 3: scouting report for Ben Rice. He's gonna say, well, Ben

180
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 3: Rice hasn't seen my fastball in or my cutter in,

181
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,839
Speaker 3: and he's gonna go after him, and Ben Rice is

182
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:25,080
Speaker 3: gonna tag him. That's my nostra Derek prediction. Ben Rice

183
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 3: going deep tomorrow. All right, quick word from our sponsor,

184
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,959
Speaker 3: True Classic, and then we've got let's say, one, two, three, four, five, six,

185
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:36,200
Speaker 3: seven voicemails. I got to give a shout out to

186
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 3: today's sponsor, True Classic. If you're looking for clothes that

187
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 3: don't break the bank and actually fit, True Classic is

188
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 3: the move. I am wearing a True Classic shirt right

189
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,200
Speaker 3: now since they sent me a package of them. I've

190
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 3: been wearing them pretty much non stop because they are

191
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 3: so comfortable. They're light, they fit well. As you can see,

192
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:58,000
Speaker 3: they form to the body well. I've lost a bunch

193
00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 3: of weight lately and I just needed some transitional clothing

194
00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:05,960
Speaker 3: and they came along at the perfect time. They have

195
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 3: long sleeves, they have short sleeves. It's great for taking

196
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 3: a walk, for when you go to the gym or

197
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 3: when you're just hanging around the backyard with your dog.

198
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,160
Speaker 3: So whether you are layering up and getting ready for

00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,680
Speaker 3: shout out to True Classic. First call is about our rotation.

205
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 3: It's kind of long, so I'll cut it off.

206
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:49,680
Speaker 1: About it with Derek often. So you know, these first

207
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 1: three games have been really awesome, really fun to watch,

208
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:57,199
Speaker 1: you know, but you know, I just want to comment

209
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 1: on the pitching. So watching Marcus shown man like, he

210
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 1: didn't pitch badly. It wasn't a terrible start. You know,

211
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:06,720
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna have you know, better ones. But

212
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 1: you know, historically he's always spent that second half of

213
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,440
Speaker 1: the year. I don't know whether they're gonna arrest him

214
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 1: or whether they then use spots starts, you know, use

215
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:20,080
Speaker 1: cookie carrasco uh, you know what combination the guys are

216
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 1: gonna use. You know, Schmidt's already hurts. You know, you

217
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:24,559
Speaker 1: don't know what you're gonna gather the rest of rotation.

218
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 1: You gotta gotta be honest with ourselves. I mean, Cole,

219
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:30,560
Speaker 1: he might be done. I mean he might be he

220
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,079
Speaker 1: might be finished the Yankee, and we're not really thinking

221
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,440
Speaker 1: about you know, next year or the year after or whatever.

222
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 1: But you know, because we lost him for the entire year.

223
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:40,440
Speaker 1: But like we gotta, you know, give you to the

224
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 1: fact that he might not be he might not ever

225
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,960
Speaker 1: be the coal that we you know, know, the ace

226
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 1: that we uh that we had ever again.

227
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 3: All Right, I'm gonna go ahead and stop you right there.

228
00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,320
Speaker 3: So one, I think he's gonna come back fine, but

229
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 3: he will be a little bit older. So I think

230
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 3: it's natural to see some aggression towards the mean. But

231
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 3: you know he'll come back, and you know he had

232
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,520
Speaker 3: the internal brace procedure, which means he probably won't have

233
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 3: a second surgery. He should be able to get through

234
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 3: the next three years without having a second surgery. I'd

235
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:15,440
Speaker 3: count on him being a solid pitcher when he comes back.

236
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 3: I don't I don't think, like you're right, he's ever

237
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:18,840
Speaker 3: gonna be that guy who went fifteen and one down

238
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 3: the stretch one year with Houston. But he can be

239
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,599
Speaker 3: a leader on the staff, And you know, I like that.

240
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 3: We're basically getting a two for one deal where he's

241
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 3: also a pitching coach. We had another call here that

242
00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:32,199
Speaker 3: I think is related.

243
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 1: Hey, Garret, the Yankees may have lost Garrett Cole, but

244
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:42,560
Speaker 1: the Rangers won the World Series without Jacob deGrom.

245
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're one hundred percent right. It can be done.

246
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,800
Speaker 3: And the Braves won it without Ronald Lacuna Junior. All right,

247
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 3: So go through some comments here. Thomas Crowley says him

248
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:53,959
Speaker 3: breaking the home run record would be nice, but the

249
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 3: highlight of your life a little hyperbolic, isn't it. Well,

250
00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 3: first of all, no, because this is also my profession.

251
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:09,760
Speaker 3: It's not only my hobby. My vacation is also my vocation, right,

252
00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:14,080
Speaker 3: so it would be an enormous boon to my business.

253
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 3: It would be a fun year for me as a

254
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 3: fan and a great year for me professionally, like in

255
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 3: terms of enjoying what I'm doing. So no, I think

256
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 3: him at breaking the home run record, not in a moment.

257
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm sure the moment would be climactic and fun,

258
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 3: but yeah, it would be a highlight of my life.

259
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 3: And fuck you because you know how you know, I'm

260
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 3: allowed to judge, I'm allowed to take agency over how

261
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 3: I feel about the things in my life. So don't

262
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 3: be an asshole, Okay. Richard Lee says Judge can hit

263
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 3: sixty five home runs easy this year. I don't think

264
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:53,200
Speaker 3: he would say that it's easy. I think he would

265
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 3: tell you that it's very, very difficult to hit any

266
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 3: home runs. Off topic, says I always wondered how tall

267
00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 3: are you? I'm about five eleven, about five eleven, about

268
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:06,240

Speaker 3: We got a comment here from Jesco. When is the

309
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:18,240
Speaker 3: Martian gonna go deep? I mean noster Derek hasn't hasn't

310
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 3: been inspired to predict that yet. I hope soon. I

311
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:22,879
Speaker 3: would love it if you would do it tomorrow night

312
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 3: against Burns. That would be fun. I think it's gonna

313
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 3: happen on the home series though the d Backs are

314
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,360
Speaker 3: throwing some righties up there and he's a lefty. It's

315
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 3: just gonna take getting one in the air. I think

316
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,119
Speaker 3: He's had some really patient bats from the right side,

317
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:39,399
Speaker 3: but he's not much of a power hitter from the

318
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,160
Speaker 3: right side. I think it's gonna come from the left

319
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 3: side the first one, so hopefully the next few games.

320
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:45,720
Speaker 3: But you've got his work cut out for him. Maybe

321
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:46,679
Speaker 3: he'll get a reliever.

322
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 5: Hey, Derek Spread, long time super chatter, first time color

323
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:54,680
Speaker 5: As I'm sitting here watching the Yankees bludging the Brewers again,

324
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 5: I guess we're gonna have to talk about those quote

325
00:17:56,600 --> 00:18:01,399
Speaker 5: unquote illegal bats that the Yankees are now using. For

326
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:05,720
Speaker 5: everyone hating the approve of Major League Baseball, keep crying

327
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 5: about it and keep that same energy when your team

328
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 5: starts using them.

329
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:10,919
Speaker 1: For those none in my t.

330
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 3: GD yep, yep, it's you're seeing more teams roll it out,

331
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 3: So I don't want to hear anybody crying about the bats.

332
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:22,720
Speaker 3: They're legal. Anybody can use them.

333
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 5: Hey, Mary Beth, here are one another good game.

334
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 1: We have a really good offense.

335
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 5: We have a really good offense. I think Jazz gets

336
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 5: the belt. I know you're going to get Jazz the belt, okay,

337
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 5: and he also.

338
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:39,640
Speaker 3: I think you called in before the end of yesterday's show,

339
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,879
Speaker 3: so you are correct. Jazz did get the belt, and

340
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,040
Speaker 3: Jazz swinging the bat really really well. He apparently loves

341
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:48,760
Speaker 3: the torpedo bat. He said that it doesn't change his

342
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 3: exit velocity. It just feels like he connects a little

343
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 3: bit more solidly. Now, what Michael k said makes a

344
00:18:56,040 --> 00:19:00,680
Speaker 3: lot of sense that maybe some of those hits that

345
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,159
Speaker 3: were just kind of fouled off, maybe they become a flare.

346
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,000
Speaker 3: Some of the ones that were a flair, maybe they

347
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:06,919
Speaker 3: become a line drive. Some of the ones that were

348
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,560
Speaker 3: a line drive, maybe they become a home run. But

349
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:13,400
Speaker 3: he's swinging the bat really really well. All right, thanks

350
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,879
Speaker 3: for all your calls. We'll be back tomorrow night after

351

352
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,119
Speaker 3: more work on the show. We had some We've had

353
00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 3: a couple of glitches so far. We had the glitch today,

354
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 3: we had the Stroman instead or we had Rodin's name

355
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:29,240
Speaker 3: instead of Stroman yesterday. Hey, we're rolling out a bunch

356
00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:31,600
Speaker 3: of new stuff rather fast here. But we'll be running
