1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,880 Speaker 1: Complaining when you didn't tear it up, when you didn't 2 00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:05,040 Speaker 1: really give yourself a chance like I was, you know, 3 00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:06,640 Speaker 1: on an impression, or I came up in the air 4 00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:08,240 Speaker 1: with making a tough decision. 5 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:10,280 Speaker 2: Charge. 6 00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:14,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, let's charge the damn mound now. If you want 7 00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:16,799 Speaker 3: a full full recap of the Tokyo series. We did 8 00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:19,920 Speaker 3: postgame shows after game one, with Munsey joining us from 9 00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:21,600 Speaker 3: the dug out, and then game two. We were on 10 00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:23,919 Speaker 3: for about twenty twenty five minutes, but let's spend a 11 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:26,160 Speaker 3: few right now. And Cam wasn't on in the morning 12 00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 3: because he was hustling around Red Sox camp. But Cam, 13 00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:31,960 Speaker 3: the dream stays alive. For Dodger fans, they're like, will 14 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:34,280 Speaker 3: we ever lose the game? They're two and zero. 15 00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:36,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, it was impressive, you know. 16 00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:38,919 Speaker 1: I think what I was the most impressed with that 17 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:41,400 Speaker 1: we talked to Can about it earlier, was this whole 18 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 1: thing about can Roki Susaki develop a third pitch? Can 19 00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:46,880 Speaker 1: he develop another pitch because he's essentially a two pitch guy. 20 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:48,160 Speaker 4: Well, today we were. 21 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:51,159 Speaker 1: Coming in watching the game, he threw some wicked sliders 22 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,760 Speaker 1: that showed me immediately he's working on this stuff. And 23 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:55,640 Speaker 1: also too there wasn't ending. I don't know if it 24 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: was a third, fourth or fifth where he lost it. 25 00:00:57,720 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 1: I think he had a few walks, but it was 26 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 1: just a simple well, is just trying to be too fine. 27 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 1: Once his feet gets settled under him and he realized 28 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,440 Speaker 1: that that stuff plays in his own that dude is 29 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 1: going to be lights out. Then you saw Kirby Yates, 30 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:11,319 Speaker 1: just so many weapons, so many ways to beat you. 31 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:13,400 Speaker 1: And I heard you talking about him this morning, Scotti, 32 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:16,039 Speaker 1: Tommy tanks right, he has picked up right where he 33 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: left off again, No Mookie, no Freddy, no problem. The 34 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 1: Dodgers are so deep, such quality at bats, and the 35 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:27,839 Speaker 1: pitching rotation is insane. So Dodgers fans have a lot 36 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:29,319 Speaker 1: to be excited about right now. 37 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean we talked about it. We talked about 38 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 2: the pitch, the knuckle, the kiatine, whatever you want to 39 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:41,199 Speaker 2: call it is splitter, something that Japanese pitchers do really well. 40 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 2: And he's no different. Yes, he's twenty three years old. 41 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 2: I get that. Is they learn how to manipulate that pitch. 42 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 2: To me, what he's gonna learn with so much movement 43 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 2: is how to manipulate it the way that the way 44 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 2: that is best for the situation. He's facing a righty. 45 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 2: He does want that thing dipping down and into a rity. 46 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 2: It's gonna be giving him the best chance. Maybe the 47 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 2: guy pulls off the ball, he's able to manipulate that finger, 48 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 2: maybe not split it quite as much on the fork 49 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 2: and make it more of like a splitter that's gonna 50 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 2: dive and drop away. He's going to learn because his 51 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 2: mechanics are so repeatable, and he hasn't really thrown that 52 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:23,919 Speaker 2: many innings as far as yes, he's a twenty three 53 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 2: year old, and yes he's been I think in professional 54 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:31,079 Speaker 2: baseball for five seasons now over in Japan. He hasn't 55 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 2: thrown that many innings, so he needs those reps and 56 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 2: it'll only only improve. Is it gonna happen this year? 57 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,239 Speaker 2: I don't know, five walks, quite a few walks. 58 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, he'll he'll settle in and his stuffs, so 59 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 3: damn good, the big yo, let's locate in the zone. 60 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 3: Your your stuff will play in the zone. Just focus 61 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 3: on that that heater and land some splitters and then 62 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:54,799 Speaker 3: get them to chase the rest. And like Cam said, 63 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 3: if you got the slider, this guy who this guy's 64 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 3: got cy young stuff. There's no doubt that team's ridiculous. 65 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 3: We'll talk plenty about him throughout the season, but I 66 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 3: do want to bring the Cubs side up here. We 67 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 3: spoke about the Cubs for about half the postgame show today, 68 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 3: just like, hey, how good do we think they are? 69 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:13,959 Speaker 3: But I actually want to lock in on a very 70 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 3: specific part of today's game. The end of the game, 71 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 3: the last out off the bat of Matt Shaw, ground 72 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 3: ball out. Jesse Rogers does an awesome job covering the 73 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 3: Cubs for a long time now, and he brought up 74 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 3: this tweet, and there's fire on socials right now. Cam 75 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 3: about it. Some people are obviously coming after him, and Jesse, 76 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 3: I thought brought up a really good point in terms 77 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 3: of the roster construction. He said, small thing, but good 78 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 3: time to wonder why a rookie is hitting ahead of 79 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 3: a one to seventy seven million dollar player who is 80 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 3: twenty five home run seasons on his resume. Manager's execs 81 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 3: off and wave off batting order questions. Quote, put your 82 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 3: best hitters up top. They say, it's simple, you do 83 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 3: that for this exact scenario. So they get the extra 84 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 3: bat late not here point being they were two long 85 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 3: and this team's down three runs. Justin Turner came in, 86 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 3: he pinchhead, he walked right, and then next up is 87 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 3: Matt Shaw and Jesse Rodgers. Just bringing up a very 88 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 3: interesting point. He's not saying this is what they had 89 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 3: to do, but he's, like anyone else think that maybe 90 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 3: Danzby Swanson should be ahead of Matt Shaw in the 91 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 3: batting order, A guy who is just making his debut 92 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 3: and he had a late start to camp right because 93 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 3: he had a little injury. And I don't know, I mean, 94 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 3: don't you want to bury him in the lineup a 95 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 3: little bit and let him. 96 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:30,039 Speaker 1: Get cozy one hundred percent? And especially right now. Again, 97 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 1: I know it's early, it's a small symble size. Triple 98 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: A is different. Not saying that he can't make it 99 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 1: at the big league level, but like Hobvey Bias when 100 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:39,839 Speaker 1: he first came up, a lot of movement, a lot 101 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 1: going on, and he doesn't have as much going on 102 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: as Hobby, but that big leg kicking, the high velocity, 103 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 1: and these guys' ability to be consistent and hit certain 104 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 1: spots and find those holes. I think it's a fair question, right, 105 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 1: you want your veteran guys in that situation late in 106 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,280 Speaker 1: the game. That's why you stacked the lineup like that one, two, three, four. 107 00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 1: You want those guys to get those at bats Layton games, 108 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: clutch situation. So I'm sure Cubs fans might be the 109 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: ones who didn't like that tweet, but it's a very 110 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 1: an extremely fair question. 111 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:07,480 Speaker 4: Listen. 112 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to compare my seventy U team to 113 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:12,600 Speaker 1: the Cubs, but when I make that lineup, I make 114 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: it so at the end of the game, my best 115 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:15,359 Speaker 1: guys will be hitting. 116 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 4: So I'm I'm in on this one. 117 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 2: It is definitely a team sport played by individuals, and 118 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 2: you want your best individuals up there. Soccer, if you 119 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,719 Speaker 2: have a penalty shot to win the game, rarely are 120 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,839 Speaker 2: you going with the rookie up there. They get an 121 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 2: opportunity to set that. In baseball, you set that lineup 122 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 2: before the game. You want those vets in there, push y'all, 123 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 2: push y'all, maybe down. I don't disagree with Jesse, but 124 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 2: it also is just a it's a copy out of 125 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 2: what you have with the Cubs. You're choosing Dansby Sponson 126 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 2: over Matt Shaw to protect like like maybe maybe they 127 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 2: were a little thin. We just talked to Breggy. Maybe 128 00:05:57,880 --> 00:05:59,720 Speaker 2: they were a little thin, should have gone after him 129 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 2: a little harder. 130 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 4: Now, maybe they were definitely being one hundred. 131 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 1: This is a move that made too Not to get 132 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: into that cratzy, but you're right, that move made so 133 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: much sense. And you look at the payroll, You look 134 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,480 Speaker 1: at Chicago regally in the summertime, that type of atmosphere, 135 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 1: that type of player, and I love Justin Turner. 136 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 4: I love him, and you still could have had him. 137 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 1: You could have used him as a guy to pick 138 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: up some batskets, Lefty at first base, DH, whatever you need. 139 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 1: But there's no doubt in my mind that you know 140 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 1: today the last two days were days where they definitely 141 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: could have used that veteran presence in the lineup. 142 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 3: Yep. Now they'll head back home and obviously play the 143 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 3: rest of the season in the States, and you have 144 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,039 Speaker 3: plenty of time to go. But you just like to 145 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 3: point those things out because it's a bummer to you know, 146 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 3: get yourself already a week earlier than everyone else. You 147 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 3: go out. It's a great trip. They're running into a buzzsaw. 148 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,599 Speaker 3: I mean, the Dodgers are playing basically a super Bowl 149 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 3: like atmosphere, and it's a home game for them, international 150 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 3: home game, let's call it. But still, I mean the 151 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 3: Cubs lost. It's it's not as strong as a roster 152 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:57,720 Speaker 3: as the Dodgers. I don't think anyone would say that. 153 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 3: So we'll see what happens. FA, I hope you have 154 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,599 Speaker 3: as much confidence as Penelope right now, who is an 155 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 3: avid Spot and Tango fan.

Let's get continue on 172 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 3: kimberl for a moment, and we'll get to Patrick Corbyn 173 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 3: later on in the show. Those were the two vets 174 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 3: that were signed in the past twenty four hours. Thoughts 175 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 3: on this one feel good story and Kimberle was pretty 176 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 3: good for a while with the Orioles and then kind 177 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:14,840 Speaker 3: of fell off, especially late in the year, and ended 178 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 3: up with a five and a half. Is cra when 179 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 3: you're at this stage in your career and you're coming 180 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 3: off a bad finish, that's what's going to happen. It's 181 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 3: a two million dollar contract if he makes the major 182 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 3: league team and when, which I'm assuming, you know, would 183 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 3: take a little bit of time since he's joining camp 184 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 3: with a week to go, so it'll be pro rated whatever. 185 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 3: He's made plenty of money in his career. I think 186 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 3: it would be cool for his last season to be 187 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 3: in Atlanta. 188 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 2: I love that. Can Atlanta unlock what I don't think 189 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 2: some of the other teams have been able to unlock Phillies, 190 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:52,560 Speaker 2: most recently the Orioles, where he has good stretches. Can 191 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 2: they sit him down? Can they not use him during 192 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 2: those stretches where he's not going well. I don't know. 193 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 2: I haven't watched enough games recently of Kimberle to see 194 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 2: what's going on. I know he has trouble holding runners whatever, 195 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 2: throwing strikes. But I love that it's going back to 196 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 2: the Braves. I love that, you know, a kid from 197 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,440 Speaker 2: the South is gonna go play in Gwinnett and be 198 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 2: one of the first ones called up because there's really 199 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:22,680 Speaker 2: not that much. It doesn't really hurt the Braves that much. 200 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 2: They're gonna make him sign the whole forty five day 201 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,319 Speaker 2: consent thing, so the two million wouldn't even be guaranteed. 202 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 2: When he gets called up, he'd have to stay for 203 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 2: forty five days. And for Kimberrel recently he started out well, 204 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,120 Speaker 2: so he could really earn that spot in the forty 205 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 2: five days when he's in the big leagues. But I 206 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 2: just think it's I think it's for awesome. I think 207 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 2: he should play. However many years he plays, whether it's 208 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 2: just this year, just May or three more years, it 209 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 2: should all be in Atlanta. 210 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 3: Hey, I mean, if he joins the team, in say, 211 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 3: late April, and then he's feeling it at some point 212 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 3: in August. There's a fan toom my ol you can 213 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 3: use that, no big deal? 214 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I mean Bruce Bochie said they're gonna do 215 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 2: it kimberl So why can't Why can't Jeames just do 216 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,559 Speaker 2: it with a bullpen? I mean, I'm sorry, now with 217 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 2: Kimber with the grum Why can't he do it with 218 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 2: with the bullpen? Oh wait, because it's called roster manipulation, 219 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 2: But who cares? 220 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 3: Patrick Corbyn will do it now for two minutes, signs 221 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 3: with the Rangers major league contract one million dollars a 222 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,719 Speaker 3: little over that guaranteed, according to John Hayman. And then 223 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,080 Speaker 3: he said, plus a few million in incentives. You know 224 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 3: that's actually funny. One million plus plus a few million incentives. 225 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 3: Hayman's usually like precise, like so and so got one 226 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 3: point six two five mil whatever. But I like this 227 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 3: version of John who's just like heay whatever. He's got 228 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 3: a few million incentives, he's got a battle mill and 229 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 3: a major league contract, and Rangers fans are like it 230 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:53,439 Speaker 3: is one of the youngsters getting kicked out of the 231 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 3: rotation to start the year. Is Jack Leer and Kamara 232 00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 3: Rocker gonna make the rotation or someone else gonna get bumped. 233 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:01,559 Speaker 3: I saw a little bit of that circulating, But I'm 234 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 3: also like, it's March nineteenth. Patrick Corbin, unless I'm completely 235 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 3: unaware of how the things are going, is not going 236 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 3: to start the year in the rotation. So I think 237 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:12,559 Speaker 3: they'll be okay. But you got a depth. I mean, 238 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 3: they've got the Grom in that rotation. They've already got 239 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:18,080 Speaker 3: two injuries, with Bradford down and with John Gray down. Right, now, Cam, 240 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 3: what do you think. 241 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: I'm like the school Oh my bad, Yeah, you know 242 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 1: what hek My whole thing is, I'm just happy to 243 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 1: see a veteran guy who can go get out to 244 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: get a big league deal, right. 245 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 4: Even though it's one million. 246 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: We see so many of these minor league deals, these 247 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:34,959 Speaker 1: minor league invites.

And if you have any tips, maybe you 300 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:14,559 Speaker 3: can send them Kratz his way, because I don't know 301 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:16,559 Speaker 3: how much college hoops he's watching. But it was a 302 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 3: really fun season. A lot of talent in NCAA basketball 303 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 3: this year. There's some good contracts that were handed out 304 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 3: to guys, so they're getting well paid and they're they're 305 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 3: earning their keep. I'm telling you, I mean, I watched 306 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 3: more this year than I had in probably ten years 307 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 3: to help my dad recover, and it's good times. Anyway. 308 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 3: Gambling problem, we're concern Call one eight hundred gambler coming. 309 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what he said. 310 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 3: That's what he said. 311 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 2: That's what he said. 312 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 3: That's what he said. Kobe Mayo is a great hitting 313 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 3: prospect with the Baltimore Orioles who wants to get some 314 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 3: pt in the major league. Seventeen games last year, and 315 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 3: you know, he didn't put much together in the big leagues, 316 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 3: but he's looking for some more consistent playing time instead. 317 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 3: He didn't hit great training, he gets sent down and 318 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 3: he had some comments. So let's read through him real quick. 319 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 3: He said, it definitely is difficult. It obviously sucks because 320 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 3: you feel like you've proven everything you've needed to. Sometimes 321 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 3: it doesn't feel like it's quite enough. Obviously, you go 322 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 3: back there and if you have success. He's talking about 323 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 3: Triple A, it's, oh, he's supposed to have success because 324 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 3: he's already proven it. And if he doesn't have success, it's, oh, well, 325 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 3: obviously he's fallen off. It's kind of a lose lose 326 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 3: talking about going to Triple A and then Orioles skipper 327 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 3: Brandon Hyde used Mayo's criticism to praise the remaining roster. 328 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 3: So he said, that's what happens when you have good teams. 329 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 3: Good teams option players that they like, and he said, 330 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 3: more reps a Triple A. We feel like that's what 331 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,720 Speaker 3: he needs right now. Guys, he's played a lot of 332 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 3: ball in Triple A. We'll go to our Triple A 333 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 3: specialist first here, Kratz. He's not coming off a great spring, 334 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 3: but yeah, I mean, you got a little more minor 335 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 3: league dirt in your cleats than Cam. But we've talked 336 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 3: about the logjam for the Orioles. I've been bringing this 337 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 3: up for a year, and sometimes when we bring things up, 338 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 3: it's not just and them. Sometimes we actually hear things 339 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 3: from a team executive or a player on the team 340 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 3: about how there is frustration when the logjam gets so 341 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 3: loaded up and you can say, oh, boo hoo, just 342 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 3: play better, hit better, But what do you think about 343 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 3: this krats a guy that's crushed it in Triple A 344 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 3: and it's starting to get frustrated. And I think he's 345 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 3: twenty five now starting to get to that age where 346 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 3: you're like, what do we got? Oh, he's twenty three. 347 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 2: Okay, still still when you put up the numbers that 348 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 2: you do at twenty two years old in triple A, yeah, 349 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 2: you expecting an opportunity.

Not everybody's chance is the exact same size. Look, 353 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 2: some people get three at bats to prove it. You 354 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 2: go one for three, you're gonna get another three to 355 00:16:55,200 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 2: ten bats.

Now it's up to you to take advantage 405 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 1: of the situation. At the end of the day, you had. 406 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 1: You can call it a small sumbl size if you 407 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 1: want to, But there was a point last year where 408 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:33,959 Speaker 1: he was getting run out there every day, whether it 409 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:37,560 Speaker 1: was seventeen at whatever it was. He got opportunity. You 410 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:40,159 Speaker 1: got to make good on your opportunity came in the spring. 411 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 1: I've been there. I told you know, our producer Mark 412 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 1: I was the worst spring training player. I hated signing 413 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 1: minor league deals for spring training because I wanted to 414 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:49,639 Speaker 1: use it to get ready. But guess what, You're in 415 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 1: a situation where you needed to come in and impress 416 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 1: and you didn't. So you know, it's one of those 417 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 1: things where I think you got to look in the 418 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:57,520 Speaker 1: mirror and then you gotta check yourself. 419 00:19:57,920 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 4: Hey, you said what you said. 420 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:00,719 Speaker 1: It's out there now, but now you got to put 421 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,199 Speaker 1: your big boy print, your big boy pants on, go 422 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,120 Speaker 1: down the Triple A like crats, he said, and show 423 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 1: that I am a absolute menace. 424 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,200 Speaker 4: And I belong in the big leagues. If anything, you go. 425 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: Down there, you force their hand and now you're a 426 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 1: trade piece and maybe you get an opportunity to go 427 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 1: somewhere else. But complaining about it when you really didn't 428 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 1: take advantage of the opportunity. 429 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:19,199 Speaker 4: It doesn't sit well with me. 430 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,439 Speaker 3: And what if he crushes it in the miners for 431 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:26,160 Speaker 3: the first couple of months but they don't have a spot. 432 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 4: Was the Orioles? 433 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:30,239 Speaker 1: Get him on out of here, go get me some 434 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 1: more picton. You don't want to be They got plenty 435 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: of prospects. I don't want to listen to work right now. 436 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: And I'm not saying he is this guy, but complaining 437 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,440 Speaker 1: when you didn't tear it up, when you didn't really 438 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 1: give yourself a chance like I was, you know, un 439 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:45,439 Speaker 1: an impression, or I came up in the area with. 440 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 4: Make make it a tough make it a tough decision. 441 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 1: It wasn't a tough decision because you didn't go and 442 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 1: be the guy that you were in triple A. So 443 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 1: for me, the last thing I want is guys up 444 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,880 Speaker 1: here complaining winding about not playing every day and getting 445 00:20:57,880 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 1: opportunities as a young guy. 446 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 4: That's the role that you're in. 447 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:02,680 Speaker 1: You have to take advantage of those limbed opportunities, like 448 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 1: Krassy said, and if you don't, it's only one person 449 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 1: to look at, and that's the person in the mirror. 450 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 2: In organizations that are good teams, players in the minor 451 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 2: league sit there and they go, oh, you know, if 452 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:18,480 Speaker 2: I was in this organization, you know it would be different. Maybe, 453 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 2: But nobody that ever said that in the minor leagues 454 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 2: ended up sticking with another organization. You get called up 455 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 2: to the big league, sure, but you don't want to 456 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 2: just get called up. You want to stick. We're talking 457 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:34,719 Speaker 2: about this because because Kobe made these comments, maybe he 458 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 2: wants to back off these comments at some point, but 459 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 2: there is some blame in the organization. You can't have 460 00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:45,680 Speaker 2: this type of dissension. You can't have the other organizational 461 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:49,360 Speaker 2: prospect Basalo the catcher coming down, you know, coming down 462 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 2: to minor league camp when when season, when big league 463 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:56,400 Speaker 2: spring ends, and hanging out with a guy who could 464 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 2: be toxic. The org has to be able to get 465 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:03,880 Speaker 2: value lot of guys when the value is there. They 466 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,920 Speaker 2: did it with Norby. Now you know, maybe there's a 467 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,639 Speaker 2: chance to get this value. Can't keep hoarding these guys. 468 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 2: It's not fair to them, but it's also not fair 469 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,639 Speaker 2: to the overall growth of your organization. 470 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 3: There you go, and yeah, I mean I've been pretty 471 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,119 Speaker 3: pointed on what I think the o should do. I 472 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 3: would like another starter, whether it's a vet for a 473 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:28,040 Speaker 3: year or a younger guy, where you trade a hitting 474 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 3: prospect for a younger pitching prospect and see what happens. 475 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 3: That's happened before too. I mean you had the famous 476 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 3: what Zach Gallan Jazz Chisholm trade back in the day. 477 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 3: For me, the Oils have excelled for the most part 478 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 3: with developing hitting prospects. Now, pitching prospects okay, but hitting prospects, 479 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,359 Speaker 3: I mean, they've crushed it over the last several years. 480 00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 3: So you just want to take advantage of that winning 481 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 3: window opportunity. And hopefully Kobe Mayo is a part of 482 00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:56,960 Speaker 3: that for them this year. But otherwise, you really need 483 00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 3: to use your assets to keep staying aggressive in the market. 484 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:01,879 Speaker 3: So we'll see what happened. 485 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 4: And that's why you load up on those guys. 486 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:05,679 Speaker 1: Got That's why you go out and you build a 487 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 1: farm system that is loaded so you can make those moves. 488 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:10,720 Speaker 4: Right, if we're not doing in the pigeon aspects. 489 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:12,320 Speaker 1: Well, we got two guys that we can go make 490 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 1: a move for and go get one or two big 491 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 1: prospects back. So I think you know the Orioles when 492 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 1: we talk about the ORG being somewhat to blame, like 493 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:23,639 Speaker 1: Crassi said, I think they're in a situation where listen, 494 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 1: they're just holding on the prospects. 495 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 4: They got a good team up there. 496 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:29,360 Speaker 1: Now go take some of those pieces, unless they're generational, 497 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 1: unless they're Aaron Judge, unless they're old tiny. Sometimes you 498 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 1: got to move that because prospects. When I came up, 499 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 1: it meant you just hadn't did anything yet. So hey 500 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:39,720 Speaker 1: for me, like you said, use those chips while you have. 501 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 2: Them, Kobe Mayo better better, better count as chickens too, 502 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 2: because man, that man could have gotten traded into Seattle, 503 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 2: And all we have ever heard is ain't no right 504 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,680 Speaker 2: handers hit dingers in Seattle, So it could be worse. 505 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,479 Speaker 2: Go to Norfolk. Go to Norfolk, get you some dingers 506 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 2: to left field, the short porch right, get you go 507 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 2: to Charlotte like seven times was in April again and 508 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,720 Speaker 2: hit nine dangers, Like, let's just be careful, you might 509 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:08,720 Speaker 2: get traded to might get traded the Marlins for Sandy Alpontra. 510 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,359 Speaker 2: Now you in the big leagues, but it's not the 511 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:12,920 Speaker 2: big leagues. 512 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:15,879 Speaker 3: Okay, let's get to an injury. This one sucks. We 513 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 3: didn't have time for the segment today, but we will hit. 514 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,159 Speaker 3: I'll mention a good one on the back end of this. 515 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 3: But the bad news. Pirates manager Derek Shelton this was 516 00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 3: not long ago. Just informed the media that Jared Jones 517 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:30,959 Speaker 3: experienced to elbow his comfort after his most recent bullpen, 518 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 3: which was earlier this week. He's gonna miss his next start. 519 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 3: Conversations will then be had about how his regular season 520 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:39,679 Speaker 3: will start. This according to Noah Hiles, who's been on 521 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 3: the show who covers the Pirates really well, concern level 522 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:51,160 Speaker 3: gotta be high, right, young guy throws hard, not even 523 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 3: telling us more info about any imaging and all that. 524 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:59,160 Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, and this is a team that cannot 525 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:04,159 Speaker 3: afford to lose their standout players. They are going to 526 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 3: be built around a young, exciting rotation, and if they're 527 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:12,120 Speaker 3: missing a link or two, they're really screwed. They're already 528 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:13,879 Speaker 3: probably screwed. All right. I don't have them as a 529 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 3: playoff team, but if they're losing a player or two 530 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 3: right away like this, this could be bad news. So 531 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,879 Speaker 3: I hope everything's okay. Dried Jones, fun, dude, it was 532 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 3: really great to watch last year. But we'll see. We'll 533 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:27,639 Speaker 3: follow this one for you. 534 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 2: It's tough. It's tough to hear any young arm like this. 535 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 3: The other side of this is Lance mccullor's junior pitching 536 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:38,160 Speaker 3: on a mound for the first time in like eight 537 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 3: hundred something days since twenty twenty two World Series. Who 538 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:44,360 Speaker 3: just good to see him back and on the mat. 539 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 3: Obviously still a road to do up downs and to 540 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:50,120 Speaker 3: get on a big league mount in a regular season game. 541 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:53,960 Speaker 3: But you know, some some fans just go out of control, like, oh, 542 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 3: you know whatever, not going to see him now. Just 543 00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 3: watch those same fans, especially if they're Astros fans. If 544 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 3: Lance mccullor's is actually on the roster and he's pitching, well, 545 00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:08,199 Speaker 3: but they're gonna be like this craft getting screen. I 546 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 3: didn't say that. Let me let me delete that tweet. 547 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 2: Yep, yep, they're there. Their text don't don't quite work 548 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 2: the same. I texted him and he said the best 549 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:21,919 Speaker 2: part is he feels great today, which is everybody's hope 550 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 2: after after they come back every eight hundred some days 551 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 2: like that is that's the best part is today he 552 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:29,960 Speaker 2: feels good. 553 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 3: Here we are, We're back. We're gonna finish strong. And 554 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,200 Speaker 3: I got a weird one for the last few minutes. 555 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:39,159 Speaker 3: So the Tokyo Series was insane. It looks like numbers 556 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 3: are coming out which we can cover. Tomar saying it 557 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 3: was by far the most watched you know, regular season 558 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 3: games or whatever. And in Japan just crushing ratings, which 559 00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:51,399 Speaker 3: you expect, just like the World Series in Japan, just 560 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 3: like the World Baseball Classic in Japan.
