1
00:00:02,440 --> 00:00:04,920
Speaker 1: Well, we're coming up on one month into the twenty

2
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:09,039
Speaker 1: twenty five season, and the early returns on Anthony Volpi

3
00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:12,520
Speaker 1: are kind of polarizing Yankees fans. A lot of Yankees

4
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:15,040
Speaker 1: fans feel that he should be sent down. Maybe we

5
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:16,720
Speaker 1: should expect a little bit more out of a guy

6
00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 1: in his third year, but he still provides great defense

7
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:22,119
Speaker 1: and some fans love that. Tonight, we're gonna dive into

8
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:25,240
Speaker 1: all of that. We're gonna take your voicemails. Coming up

9
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:27,440
Speaker 1: next this this pinstripe territory.

10
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:29,319
Speaker 2: He just wanted to talk.

11
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:37,320
Speaker 1: It's all, how's it going everybody? Welcome back, Welcome back.

12
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:39,239
Speaker 1: I see, we've got a bunch of people waiting for

13
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 1: this one. People are anxious to talk about anything Anthony

14
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 1: Volpi right now because he's such a polarizing figure. You'll

15
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 1: notice he's on pace for five point one point eight

16
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 1: war this year if you look at Baseball Reference. But

17
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 1: he's hitting one ninety eight and he strikes out a lot,

18
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 1: and he strikes out in big spots. So we had

19
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,120
Speaker 1: a lot of requests to do a show on him

20
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:10,199
Speaker 1: and to basically take voicemails and comments and for my take,

21
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 1: and I've been kind of formulating it over the last

22
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:19,039
Speaker 1: few days, and here it is. We've gotten more voicemails

23
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:22,680
Speaker 1: on him than anyone else, and I get it. I'm

24
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:31,559
Speaker 1: not here to confirm or deny anyone's opinion or shoot

25
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: down anyone who's upset about, you know, what Volpi is,

26
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:42,760
Speaker 1: or to basically confirm that he's a bust. But I

27
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:44,959
Speaker 1: think it's time to have the discussion, and I think

28
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 1: it's worth having the discussion. And we got a lot

29
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 1: of comments in here tonight for people who want to

30
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 1: put him back in the minor leagues, people who still

31
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 1: think that Parraza deserves a shot, or perhaps you're a

32
00:01:58,240 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 1: bit vivas. We got some calls about that.

33
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 3: Tonight.

34
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: I want to present the objective facts as I see

35
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 1: them and let the chips fall where they may. We've

36
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 1: also got special appearance by TK. He's going to be

37
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 1: on the show tomorrow. The fact is Anthony Volpie's twenty

38
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 1: three years old, so he's still pretty young in his career.

39
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,400
Speaker 1: Former first round draft pick, came straight out of high school,

40
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 1: so he's not a guy who had a chance to

41
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 1: work through college baseball and face these top level pitchers.

42
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:29,919
Speaker 1: He had to work his way up through the minor leagues,

43
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:35,839
Speaker 1: and in his first two years his war was over three,

44
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,640
Speaker 1: which is pretty good for a rookie and for a

45
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 1: follow up campaign. But he was billed to us, not

46
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 1: only by the Yankees, but by the various scouts and

47
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 1: scouting reports and prospect magazines and so forth, as a

48
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:57,680
Speaker 1: guy who could potentially be a big time hitter in

49
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 1: the major leagues. You know, contact guy, maybe a little

50
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,959
Speaker 1: bit of power, a speed demon, a thirty to thirty guy.

51
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:06,519
Speaker 1: But if you look at his minor league numbers, he

52
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: really never hit for an average. He really never got

53
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,800
Speaker 1: on base all that much. He was basically the player

54
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 1: that he's been since getting to the major leagues, a

55
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 1: guy who plays pretty good defense will hit to some

56
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 1: home runs, but doesn't make a lot of contact, doesn't

57
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 1: make much contact. I feel like Anthony Volpi's body type,

58
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:37,960
Speaker 1: or as some people would say, his player archetype, is

59
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 1: divergent from the player he's trying to become. He's not

60
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 1: Aaron Judge, he's not Paul Goldschmidt, He's not even Ben Rice.

61
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 1: These are big, strong dudes. Volpi is five foot ten,

62
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 1: He's listed as one hundred and eighty pounds. He has

63
00:03:55,960 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 1: five more pounds than I do. But he's short. He's

64
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 1: got a natural advantage in that he's got a smaller

65
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: strike zone, and a smaller strike zone should mean less

66
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 1: area to cover and hence less strikeouts. Yet the strikeouts

67
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:23,159
Speaker 1: are astronomical, and you would think that somebody of his

68
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 1: size and stature, especially given his speed, would have the

69
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 1: approach of getting on base and playing towards that typical archetype.

70
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 1: You expect him to be a menace stealing basis, You

71
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:39,559
Speaker 1: expect him to make contact, but that's not really his game.

72
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,559
Speaker 1: That's not really the game he's chosen to go after.

73
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's because he wants to get

74
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 1: paid as a guy who hits home runs because he's

75
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 1: hit a few of them, or a guy who wants

76
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 1: to drive in a ton of runs, or if the

77
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 1: Yankees want him to be that guy. But the fact

78
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 1: is he swings very very hard, very hard, and he

79
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 1: misses way more often than I'm comfortable with, and I

80
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,040
Speaker 1: know a lot of you are comfortable with. Now, if

81
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 1: you look at his value, it's pretty much on track

82
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 1: to be at or better than it was last year.

83
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 1: But if you look at the numbers, one ninety eight,

84
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 1: batting average two ninety five, on base percentage three eighty five,

85
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 1: slugging six't eighty oh ps, they're underwhelming, So a vast

86
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 1: majority of his value comes from his defense. Struck out

87
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 1: four times on Wednesday, including a couple of big spots

88
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:35,720
Speaker 1: with men on base and in scoring position. That's been

89
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:40,479
Speaker 1: a pattern throughout his career, and I still maintain that

90
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:44,440
Speaker 1: the best version of Anthony Volpi is the guy that

91
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 1: we saw from April through i'd say early June last year.

92
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 1: He was in around two ninety.

93
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:53,040
Speaker 3: He didn't hit for.

94
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,919
Speaker 1: As much power, but he was using the whole field.

95
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 1: He was lacing line drives, he was getting on base,

96
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,599
Speaker 1: he was stealing base. He was a pain in the

97
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,480
Speaker 1: ass as a player. He was pesky, and I think

98
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 1: that's what a lot of us envisioned him being. You

99
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 1: remember how effective he was as a leadoff hitter in

100
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 1: front of Judge and Soto or Soto and Judge in

101
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 1: that order. He was getting a lot of pitches to hit,

102
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,839
Speaker 1: and he was He was great, and then he fell

103
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 1: off the table. I think it says something that even

104
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:29,159
Speaker 1: though the Yankees have had a bunch of different leadoff hitters,

105
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 1: this year. They haven't even attempted to hit Anthony Volpi leadoff.

106
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 1: They've tried Austin Wells, they tried Trent Grisham, they've tried

107
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 1: Paul Goldschmidt, they've tried Ben Rice. Volpi hasn't even sniffed

108
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 1: the leadoff spot, not even a sniff. So the Yankees, No,

109
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 1: he's not an on bass guy, and maybe they don't

110
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 1: even want him to be. But I told you guys

111
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,040
Speaker 1: after the first week or first weekend of the season,

112
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 1: really that if he kept swinging with the big loopy swing,

113
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 1: even though he had some early success, pitchers were gonna

114
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 1: have to elevate the ball and pitch him inside to

115
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,000
Speaker 1: tie him up, and he wasn't going to be able

116
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 1: to get to those pitches. And he's not doing it.

117
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: He's not doing it. They're getting ahead of him with fastballs,

118
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,120
Speaker 1: and then they're throwing sliders down and away when he's

119
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 1: down in the count and he simply cannot lay off

120
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 1: of them. There's been a lot of talk about whether

121
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 1: or not the Yankee should sit him entirely, whether they

122
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 1: should send him down to the minor leagues. For a

123
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 1: couple of weeks, I've brought up both of those topics,

124
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 1: and I'm not necessarily opposed to either one. If you

125
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 1: can fix his approach and get him back by I

126
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 1: don't know, a Memorial Day and have him be that

127
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 1: guy he was at the beginning of last year, there

128
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 1: would still be about one hundred games left in the

129
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 1: season for him to make a big impact. Now, maybe

130
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,880
Speaker 1: he gets hot this weekend and he hits five home runs.

131
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 1: Who knows. I would bet against it, but it is possible.

132
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 1: It's it's good for the Yankees when he does that, obviously,

133
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 1: when he gets hot and he drives and runs, But

134
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 1: I think it would be bad for him in the

135
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:20,239
Speaker 1: long term because it would only reinforce what I think

136
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 1: is a misguided approach. And I think a lot of

137
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 1: you would agree that his approach doesn't match the type

138
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 1: of player archetype that he should have. So let's get

139
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,680
Speaker 1: some comments here. Lorie C says, when he does get

140
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 1: on base, he doesn't steal enough. You're one hundred percent right,

141
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 1: Ton says VOPI speed is never in play if he

142
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:56,320
Speaker 1: grounds out or strikes out eighty percent of the time exactly.

143
00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,319
Speaker 1: The other voices points out that Gunner Henderson and was

144
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 1: drafted after Anthony Vopi and he's turned into a stud.

145
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 1: That's just a miss. But everybody missed other than the

146
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 1: Orioles before him, right, everybody missed who didn't take him.

147
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 1: Gemini Thielman says on base percentage under two ninety in

148
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:23,920
Speaker 1: twelve hundred at bats not good. Slattomania says he's trying

149
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 1: to swing for the fences. That much is obvious, and

150
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:33,319
Speaker 1: it's painfully obvious. The real estate I guess. TV says

151
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 1: Boone does not give him enough off days. Don't care

152
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 1: how young he is. When a player is struggling, they

153
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:43,600
Speaker 1: need to sit the f down. I think there's some

154
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:47,200
Speaker 1: truth in that. And remember he played better last year

155
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 1: after off days. Rick Diaz says he needs some chicken farm.

156
00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 1: Sean Massa says he is Andrelton Simmons, and we do

157
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 1: know that Brian Cashman loved Andrelton Simmons tried to trade

158
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:09,599
Speaker 1: for him a couple of times. The amount of shortstops

159
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,959
Speaker 1: we passed up on for a potential journeyman that has

160
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 1: good defense is actually horrible. I agree with that take.

161
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 1: You know Seeger was available, could have had him. Gilbert

162
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 1: Rodriguez says Astro's fan here. We're gonna boo him just

163
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 1: for fun, because that's how we roll. He says Pegna

164
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 1: had a down second year. Volpie will bounce back. I

165
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 1: hope so, I hope so. Action VJ making fun of

166
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 1: my grammar says, objective facts as I see them, look

167
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:43,559
Speaker 1: as I identify them to be. But yeah, you're right,

168
00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 1: that's kind of a misnomer or whatever it's called. Jay

169
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 1: Modis says, I want to keep believing him in him,

170
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 1: but he seriously needs to fix his stuff. He's twenty

171
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 1: four in four days. This is his third year. Zachary

172
00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 1: Bas says he is a doubles hitting guy with speed,

173
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: not a hole run hitter. I agree with that take

174
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 1: a lot. I think that's who he should be. Eric

175
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,679
Speaker 1: C says the torpedo bat may have gotten him trying

176
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,199
Speaker 1: to swing for the fences. I mean, it's clear that

177
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 1: he's swinging for the fences almost every time. And Lauris

178
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 1: says he isn't a bust yet, but it's put up

179
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,880
Speaker 1: or shut up time, and I gotta agree with that.

180
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: We had a take from our guy TK out there

181
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,600
Speaker 1: in Los Angeles. TK is gonna be on the show

182
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:36,880
Speaker 1: tomorrow night, and he saw we were doing this show,

183
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 1: and he sent me this via text, and I thought, hey,

184
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 1: let's put it on the show.

185
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 4: All right, what's up everyone coming at you from Rodeo

186
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 4: Drive and Beverly Hills, Let's talk to Anthony Volpey.

187
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:48,959
Speaker 5: Anthony Volpi is one of.

188
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 4: The most frustrating prospects that there's been in a long time.

189
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:56,080
Speaker 4: To be honest, probably just because of the expectations that

190
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,839
Speaker 4: were set on him. Hometown kid grew up idolizing, g

191
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:04,679
Speaker 4: grew up idolizing the Yankees. He's a top prospect. They

192
00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 4: don't want to trade him for Luis Castillo. Oh, we're

193
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:11,440
Speaker 4: not gonna sign Corey Seeger or Trey Turner. All of

194
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 4: these things are really kind of build up into the

195
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,839
Speaker 4: hike with Bolpi. And yeah, his glove is there, he's

196
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,440
Speaker 4: a gold glove guy. But to me, my take is

197
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:22,560
Speaker 4: this is it. This is year three. Yankees have given

198
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 4: him more than a long enough leash. They give him

199
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,280
Speaker 4: time to prove himself with the major leagues, and he

200
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:30,439
Speaker 4: just hasn't really hit. And I think part of the

201
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,079
Speaker 4: reason of that is he doesn't know what kind of

202
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 4: hitter he is. Man, He's he's a gap to gap

203
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 4: guys not a home run hitter. They don't need him

204
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 4: to be a home run hitter. He's got great speed.

205
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:41,840
Speaker 4: I just need him to go gap to gap and

206
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 4: steel bases. Basically, That's what I mean for Anthony Vulpey,

207
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:46,679
Speaker 4: and that's just not what we've seen. He strikes out

208
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,319
Speaker 4: way too much for a guy like that.

209
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 6: Now.

210
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 7: Am I ready to give.

211
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:54,040
Speaker 4: Up on Volpey? No, but the patients are starting to

212
00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 4: wear thin, and I think that the Yankees kind of

213
00:12:57,840 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 4: have an insurance plan.

214
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:02,440
Speaker 1: George Lombard Jr. Lurking there in the minor leagues doing well.

215
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 4: It could be the end for Volpi. Maybe look into

216
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 4: trading him at the deadline, trading a gold glove, promoting Lombard.

217
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 4: Maybe that's the direction they go in. I don't know,

218
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 4: but I'm not ready to give up. But we're sure

219
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:18,360
Speaker 4: as hell getting close, and I think the Yankees have

220
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 4: given him more than enough time to prove himself.

221
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:23,440
Speaker 3: Well.

222
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:30,320
Speaker 1: Appreciate the take there, TK. George Lombard Junior, by the way,

223
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:37,679
Speaker 1: hitting two eighty six in HI A for Hudson Valley

224
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,840
Speaker 1: already nine stolen base is four sixty three on base percentage,

225
00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 1: so great. I one home run, he might advance faster

226
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 1: than I think people realize. He's a really good player.

227
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,680
Speaker 1: He's and he's going to be putting pressure on Volpee.

228
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 1: And honestly, Volpi's arm has always been that of a

229
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 1: second basement. He makes up for it by having a

230
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 1: great release, but I've always felt he profiles as a

231
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 1: second basement too. We got a bunch of voicemails on Vulpy.

232
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:09,439
Speaker 1: Let's start with this one from Hawaii, Matthews.

233
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,120
Speaker 8: And cost Louis Hawaii with some sets on Volpi. Coming

234
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,600
Speaker 8: into this year, of all players with over one thousand

235
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:19,040
Speaker 8: at bats, he was the sixth worst and average tied

236
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 8: for worst ron base percentage, seventh worst since plugging ops,

237
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 8: third worst w ors plugged, sixth worst. Right, y'all know

238
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,840
Speaker 8: he started the year hot, but he did that last

239
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 8: year too, and then fell into a crater. He didn't

240
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 8: even make the growth that some people think he did

241
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 8: from twenty three to twenty four. Ground ball percentage got worse,

242
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 8: barrel percentage ops ex Z, low, hard hit percentage, walk percentage,

243
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 8: slug percentage, extra base hits all got worse friendly reminder

244
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 8: as well, and he probably didn't even deserve the Gold

245
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 8: glove that apparently justifies his job for life over guys

246
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 8: like Prozac. Abby Way Junior had better. Frb andaa sets

247
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 8: On Fronco from the grade hadn't been a criminal, probably

248
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,080
Speaker 8: would have wanted to go. He hoping for the kid

249
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 8: be shown nothing so far.

250
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 1: Thanks Jean Jacques dessalleans I hope I said that right, says.

251
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 1: Volpi is definitely a bust. Get him off my screen out.

252
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 9: It's all right there in front of us.

253
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 1: Here's another suggestion.

254
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 10: Hey, Derek, this is Bobby the Bear in Atlantic fucking

255
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:35,000
Speaker 10: traffic water Nightmare. But I wanted to offer a solution,

256
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 10: a very easy one for vopee struggles. Switch his locker

257
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 10: and have his locker next to Paul Goldsmith. Dude, Paul

258
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 10: Goldsmith is actually having the type of season that Votey.

259
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:52,880
Speaker 8: Is supposed to have.

260
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 1: You're not wrong.

261
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 11: VOPI led a thirty seven year old ball. I had

262
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:02,960
Speaker 11: a weasel beat him out in terms of overall stats.

263
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:05,800
Speaker 11: I'm certainly not gonna.

264
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 10: Give Vope stats to gold Schmidt because he's a professional hitter.

265
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 11: If Vope wants to emulate somebody, he should go ahead

266
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,040
Speaker 11: and look up mister Ricky Anderson.

267
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 5: Rest in Peace. The best leadoff hitter in the history

268
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 5: of baseball. If Vobi wants to hit for power, fine,

269
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 5: Henderson had power, but he got on base. He's the

270
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 5: best leadoff hitter in the history of the game. He

271
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 5: got on base. He wrecked havoc on the bass taps.

272
00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 5: That's what he's supposed to do. That's what vote is

273
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 5: supposed to do, is get on base. Anyway, Thanks for.

274
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 11: Letting me bent, leader, Dude.

275
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 1: I love that he always signs off with later. Dude,

276
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 1: you're the man, Bobby the Bear. I'm gonna shut up

277
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 1: for a minute, Beau. We've got a lot of takes

278
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 1: from you guys.

279
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:03,960
Speaker 3: Hey, Dereck Austen.

280
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 7: So just listening to Michael Kaye.

281
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,480
Speaker 6: Talk about you know, Anthony Volti, you know, hometown kid,

282
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 6: but the fans are starting to turn on him because

283
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:11,720
Speaker 6: you know, he's just not performing.

284
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:14,359
Speaker 5: I you know, I like Anthony Volti.

285
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:16,800
Speaker 6: I think he could be a much better player than

286
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 6: how he's playing now, like the first half.

287
00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 7: Of last season.

288
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,040
Speaker 6: That's like the Anthony Volpie we want, right But you know,

289
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:25,719
Speaker 6: I don't know why they won't, just like, you know,

290
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,639
Speaker 6: what's wrong with giving Prozo a few up? The shortstop

291
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,560
Speaker 6: what's really wrong with that? Think about this. He can't

292
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:35,880
Speaker 6: do any work than Anthony Volfi he's doing right now

293
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,560
Speaker 6: with his like low three hundreds off eight percentage, he's

294
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 6: batting two hundred, whatever it is. I mean, he can't

295
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 6: do any worse, right, I couldn't really do any worse

296
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,719
Speaker 6: than Anthony Volpe's doing right now. So I mean, you know,

297
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:49,400
Speaker 6: I don't know whether it's about oh, we just want

298
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,199
Speaker 6: to let him sit there and figure it out, or like,

299
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,879
Speaker 6: oh we're gonna you know, hurt his confidence or you know,

300
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 6: hurt his feelings or whatever. Well, maybe he needs a

301
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,760
Speaker 6: wake up, Paul, maybe pro Maybe he needs a couple

302
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 6: of days off, like you said, Maybe he just needs

303
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 6: a break, you know, just like let him you know,

304
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:05,800
Speaker 6: like I mean, not just a physical break. Maybe he

305
00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:08,399
Speaker 6: needs a mental break. Maybe he just needs to like

306
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 6: sit back and watch and you know, get somebody like Parazza,

307
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:16,120
Speaker 6: you know, a couple of reps, you know. Anyways, Yeah,

308
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 6: so that's I said my piece, Thank you.

309
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 1: I want to know in the chat how you guys

310
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:23,119
Speaker 1: would feel about Volpi going to Triple A for a

311
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 1: little while and just letting Paraza get a run, just

312
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 1: letting him get a couple of weeks. You're not going

313
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 1: to lose anything defensively, because he's every bit of Volpi's

314
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,920
Speaker 1: equal as a defender, if not better, And I would

315
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 1: say he probably is better. He's got a better arm,

316
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 1: for sure, we've seen that. I think he moves better,

317
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:48,159
Speaker 1: like more athletically, more fluidly. Now, Volpi's a tremendous defender,

318
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:51,680
Speaker 1: don't get me wrong. He handles you know, stuff around

319
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 1: the bag really well. Uh, he turns a double play well,

320
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,400
Speaker 1: gets rid of the ball quickly. I don't think he's

321
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:02,360
Speaker 1: great at the slow rollers. I don't think he charges

322
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:09,560
Speaker 1: them enough. But you know, maybe he's playing deep. Look,

323
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be opposed to Paraza getting a shot.

324
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 2: Eric, No, you don't want to hear any more about Vaulty.

325
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 2: But it's a seventeen. He's over four with four more strikeouts.

326
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:27,879
Speaker 2: Kyzie yank him for his own for his own sake.

327
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,560
Speaker 2: Get Parazza in there, get Frid's family in there, get

328
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:32,440
Speaker 2: anybody in there.

329
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, we gotta call. We gotta comment here, says Michael

330
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 1: Kay said everyone is crazy for saying bring Piazza at shortstop. Yeah,

331
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 1: I don't think we should play Mike Piazza at shortstop. However,

332
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:49,600
Speaker 1: Parazza I could get behind. This is a three minute ram.

333
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:51,359
Speaker 1: I'm gonna cut it off, but I want.

334
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 6: To play a little.

335
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,480
Speaker 9: I just had a question for you because you guys

336
00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,800
Speaker 9: keep talking about like Vaulty just needs a day off

337
00:19:59,920 --> 00:20:05,200
Speaker 9: or too, and I'm sorry, I know we won, but this, like.

338
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 7: What what more are we going to.

339
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:07,920
Speaker 5: Get out of this guy?

340
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,320
Speaker 3: It's been? This is his third season.

341
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:15,400
Speaker 7: Honestly, I don't I don't see any improvement in any

342
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:20,439
Speaker 7: facet of his game from his rookie season. So it's like,

343
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:22,560
Speaker 7: at what point do we kind of just bite the

344
00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:27,359
Speaker 7: bullet and realize that Vaulty is possibly a bus man.

345
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,920
Speaker 7: I mean, we've got Faraza, We've got Cabrera. These guys

346
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:34,720
Speaker 7: are possibly even better defensively than he is. You know,

347
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,880
Speaker 7: let's just give Farazza a shot. Let's give someone else

348
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 7: a shot. This kid walked on to the team, and

349
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 7: basically we just given this job without really having to

350
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 7: earn it.

351
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,199
Speaker 1: Don't well, he hearned it in that one spring training

352
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,680
Speaker 1: but and you know, you can't take away the three

353
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:52,280
Speaker 1: and a half more two years in a row. That's

354
00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 1: that's not insignificant, and he's on pace for five point

355
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:58,399
Speaker 1: one eight. But I you know, I've said this in

356
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 1: the past, and I still feel it. I think war

357
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:05,679
Speaker 1: is a flawed stat because it changes its formula based

358
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 1: on you know, what position you play, and it changes

359
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 1: its formula based on what website you get, whether it's

360
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:14,200
Speaker 1: fan graphs or whether it's Baseball reference. And I don't

361
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,560
Speaker 1: think if you can, you know, if you can't calculate

362
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:20,040
Speaker 1: the stat on a napkin, I don't put a lot

363
00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:21,920
Speaker 1: of stock in it, because then it's not a stat.

364
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 1: It's like a formula, and the formula is something that

365
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:28,400
Speaker 1: some guy made up in a lab. Look, I think

366
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 1: he's got potential to be a good player, but I

367
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:34,520
Speaker 1: think he's taking the wrong approach, taking the wrong approach.

368
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,159
Speaker 1: Hi one two, three nine seven says too early to

369
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 1: tell yet. But as someone said earlier, probably hearing the

370
00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 1: footsteps at this point, hearing the footsteps got another call here.

371
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,399
Speaker 1: This one is about orbit Vivas.

372
00:21:52,960 --> 00:22:00,440
Speaker 3: Yorbid Vivas almost hitting three fifty in the minors, can't

373
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 3: get one ab after jazz foul seventeen pitches off his leg,

374
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:11,639
Speaker 3: hit in one fifty, and there is no.

375
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:16,400
Speaker 12: Thought in the Yankees organization that let's give this kid

376
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,640
Speaker 12: a chance who's hitting the piss out of the ball

377
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:20,400
Speaker 12: in the minors.

378
00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 6: They'll not.

379
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:26,359
Speaker 12: We'll just they have players like Parraza and Vivas. It

380
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 12: seems that they have zero intentions in ever giving a

381
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 12: legitimate shot to when you have guys struggling like Vaulty

382
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 12: and Chisholm right in the middle of the infield, the

383
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:46,240
Speaker 12: two positions these guys play. How much less production do

384
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 12: you think these guys are going to do than one

385
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 12: fifty and two.

386
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,920
Speaker 3: Hundred batting averages. I'm honestly confused.

387
00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:57,879
Speaker 1: I appreciate the call. I think it's interesting that they

388
00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,359
Speaker 1: don't really give Vivasa shot. They called them up year,

389
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:01,760
Speaker 1: and I don't think you played it all. Maybe he

390
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 1: got one at pat and he was up for a

391
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:07,880
Speaker 1: few days here while Trank Christian was on paternity leave,

392
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:10,960
Speaker 1: didn't get an opportunity. And you're right, Jazz hits a

393
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,120
Speaker 1: lot of damn balls off of his leg and he's

394
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 1: been swinging out of his shoes too. Jazz is catching

395
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:21,400
Speaker 1: some strays here, but honestly they're kind of deserved, all right.

396
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,439
Speaker 1: So we got a quick ad from the folks over

397
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 1: at foul territory and then I'll be back with some

398
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,359
Speaker 1: more chat from the audience in just a minute.

399
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 13: Alana, we love our pupps dearly and we want to

400
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:36,959
Speaker 13: shout out Spot and Tango for taking care of our

401
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,240
Speaker 13: pups with their unkibble. They are a game changer.

402
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,439
Speaker 14: A game changer is right, Scott. And you know anything

403
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:45,480
Speaker 14: about me, you know that I love dogs and I

404
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:48,119
Speaker 14: want them to live forever. My own rescue pup, Bentley,

405
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,959
Speaker 14: is my passion and she loves Spot and Tango. Thank goodness.

406
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,480
Speaker 14: It's one hundred percent human great ingredients, so you know

407
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:58,480
Speaker 14: exactly what your dog is getting. Oftentimes, in other forms

408
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 14: of dog food, you have no idea what in it.

409
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,600
Speaker 14: It's a bunch of fillers. She loves it. It helps

410
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:06,080
Speaker 14: keep her healthy. It's perfectly customized for her age, her breed,

411
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,879
Speaker 14: her weight, and her level of activity. Makes me happy

412
00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:10,160
Speaker 14: to give it to her, and.

413
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:11,919

422
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:38,879
Speaker 1: Please, all right, so let's get a few more comment

423
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:40,679
Speaker 1: sier Piro says, Judge is not going to let them

424
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:43,120
Speaker 1: send him to Triple A. I don't think that's Judge's decision.

425
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,639
Speaker 1: As far as I know, that's the organizational decision. However,

426
00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:53,640
Speaker 1: I do think that there's something too. A few weeks

427
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:55,359
Speaker 1: in the minor leagues helping because you don't have to

428
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:58,880
Speaker 1: worry about stats. You can just focus on fixing your approach,

429
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,439
Speaker 1: and guys, once they're down there, they're motivated to get

430
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:04,000
Speaker 1: back up to the major leagues and start getting that

431
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:08,479
Speaker 1: major league pay check again. Jason Custodio says, my thing

432
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 1: with Ope is that we've seen him do really good before,

433
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:12,199
Speaker 1: so I know it's in there somewhere. We had a

434
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:15,680
Speaker 1: great comment yesterday that said we've seen him hit for power,

435
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,520
Speaker 1: we've seen him hit for average, we've seen him steal bases,

436
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 1: we've seen him play great defense. He just doesn't do

437
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:24,160
Speaker 1: it all at the same time. Right, he doesn't put

438
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,560
Speaker 1: it all together, and that's what we've been waiting on.

439
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,040
Speaker 1: We've been waiting on him to just put in the

440
00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:31,760
Speaker 1: whole package. And the fact that he's done all that

441
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,280
Speaker 1: makes you realize why he was such a big prospect

442
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:38,320
Speaker 1: in the first place, and why so many different scouts

443
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:42,440
Speaker 1: and all that. You know, why they felt strongly about him.

444
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:47,920
Speaker 1: But unfortunately, at this point, he has not won over

445
00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:48,600
Speaker 1: the fan base.

446
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:55,440
Speaker 12: One more call you watching the game here, going along

447
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 12: pretty well, Just wanted to get your opinion on one thing.

448
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,440
Speaker 1: Why, oh wait, it's the same I forget that. That's Brian.

449
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,320
Speaker 1: I guess Brian called in twice about the same topic.

450
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:06,040
Speaker 1: I didn't listen to it. I'm sorry. He basically said

451
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:08,520
Speaker 1: I had it labeled Peraza and Vivas should get a chance.

452
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 1: So basically same call as before. That's my beat anyway,

453
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 1: I really think that Volpie needs to get it together.

454
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:21,119
Speaker 1: He's at risk of becoming a fan pariah if he

455
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,680
Speaker 1: keeps making big outs with the bases loaded with runers

456
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 1: in scoring position and so forth, and it's time for

457
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 1: him to get it going. And I honestly believe he

458
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:32,359
Speaker 1: should be the player that he was for the first

459
00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,760
Speaker 1: couple of months of last season, even if it means

460
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:38,199
