00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:36,760

Speaker 3: Me.

33
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 1: So our lead this hour is from Atlanta, that is

34
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 1: the epicenter of the baseball world. As the Futures Game

35
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,800
Speaker 1: was this weekend, the Baseball Draft took place on Sunday,

36
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 1: and that's our jumping off point here. The Major League

37
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,799
Speaker 1: Baseball Draft and the All Star Home Run Derby will

38
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,520
Speaker 1: be later on today and then you've got also the

39
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 1: All Star Game on Tuesday. But no Sunday Night Baseball,

40
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:38,400
Speaker 1: No Sunday Night Baseball x nay on the Baseball A.

41
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 1: Instead it was the draft. Instead it was the draft.

42
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:47,400
Speaker 1: So Baseball attempted to artificially create some buzz out of thin.

43
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 2: Air for this event. Did it work?

44
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 1: Eh?

45
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 2: Not really not but maybe for you, but not for me.

46
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 2: More on that in a minute.

47
00:02:58,200 --> 00:02:58,359
Speaker 4: Now.

48
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 1: The biggest headline from the baseball draft is that the

49
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:07,679
Speaker 1: Washington Nationals, that is a baseball team, not a good one.

50
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: The Washington Nationals, who fired their general manager and their

51
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:16,639
Speaker 1: manager just days before the draft, selected a high school

52
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: shortstop from Oklahoma, Eli Willitts.

53
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 2: Eli Willitts.

54
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 1: On Sunday night, he was the number one over in

55
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball's amateur draft.

56
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,240
Speaker 2: His dad played for the Angels, was a coach for

57
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:30,920
Speaker 2: the Yankees.

58
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 1: And that was not supposed to be the way it went.

59
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 1: That was not what the mock drafts had. That was

60
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 1: not the projection by the nerds, the super nerds that

61
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 1: followed college and high school baseball.

62
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 2: They were in a tizzy. They were in an uproar.

63
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 2: I can't believe it.

64
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 1: So the seventeen year old Willets the youngest player taken

65
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 1: number one overall since Ken Griffey Junior by the Mariners

66
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 1: back in eighty seven, third youngest of all time. Tim

67
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 1: Foley was drafted back in the sixties by the Mets

68
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 1: out of our area.

69
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 2: He Sherman Oaks, where we do the show from.

70
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 1: And so anyway, this is the player Willitts who was

71
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: drafted top pick of the draft, and so that's a

72
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 1: big deal.

73
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 2: Right goes to the Nationals and.

74
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 1: Ethan Holliday who everyone said was the de facto number

75
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 1: one player in this draft. He was projected as the

76
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 1: player that should have been drafted number one and lead

77
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,279
Speaker 1: up to the event and he was not picked, which

78
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 1: led to a grand conspiracy theory. A grand conspiracy theory.

79
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,599
Speaker 1: You know, we love to dabble in conspiracy theories. So

80
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 1: let's discuss the question.

81
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 2: And here it is.

82
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 1: Did the Washington Nationals draft Oklahoma prep shortstop Eli Willits

83
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 1: with the first overall pick in the draft over Eli

84
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 1: or Ethan rather Ethan Holiday? Did they draft the shortstop

85
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 1: from Oklahoma, Eli Willets over Ethan Holiday? Because because of

86
00:04:54,000 --> 00:05:00,599
Speaker 1: Scott boris the super powerful agent who is repping. So

87
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:05,719
Speaker 1: I've got Boogeyman, Jack the Ripper, and Caucus and we

88
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 1: will combine all of these things together and we are

89
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 1: going to make a Tierra Massoux is what we're going

90
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,600
Speaker 1: to make. So, first of all, this is not a

91
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,279
Speaker 1: conspiracy theory. I'm going to push back on the idea

92
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 1: that the Nationals selecting a high school shortstop from Oklahoma

93
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 1: is some kind of conspiracy theory. It's not a conspiracy

94
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:30,599
Speaker 1: theory if it's true, and in my heart of hearts,

95
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 1: I believe this is true.

96
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:32,920
Speaker 2: I do.

97
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,159
Speaker 1: Now, let me ask you something, Okay, let me ask

98
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 1: you something here. Do you believe in monsters? Do you

99
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 1: do the monster mash? Do you believe in monsters? Because

100
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 1: I'm not talking about the kind that hides under the bed.

101
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 1: I'm not talking about that kind. I am not talking

102
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 1: about the kind in horror movies.

103
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 2: No no, no, no, no, no no no.

104
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 1: I'm talking about Scott Boris. Scott Boris, Oh yeah, major

105
00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 1: League Baseball.

106
00:05:57,839 --> 00:05:59,839
Speaker 2: In that world, there.

107
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 1: Is a monsder named Scott Boris. He is the boogeyman.

108
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 1: Stay away from the boogeyman. He is the thing that

109
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 1: makes general managers and scouting directors do the double check,

110
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,920
Speaker 1: and not the discount double check, although in many ways

111
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:19,600
Speaker 1: it is the discount double check. They're trying to find

112
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,719
Speaker 1: a deal, and right before they go to bed, right

113
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:26,359
Speaker 1: they gotta check the closet, they gotta check the other room.

114
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 2: He is the bathroom. The whole thing is the boogeyman

115
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 2: over there? Is he over there?

116
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 1: He's the guy Scott Boris that just gobbles gop of gobble, arbitration,

117
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 1: deadlines for breakfast. He loves, He laughs, Hi, point and

118
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 1: laugh at you with club friendly extensions. You think I'm

119
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:51,159
Speaker 1: club friendly. There's no such thing as club friendly. Scott

120
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:55,160
Speaker 1: Boris is, without a doubt, there is no question the

121
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 1: most powerful man in baseball not wearing a uniform. It's

122
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:02,360
Speaker 1: certainly not the clown commits baseball. Scott Boris it is.

123
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:06,599
Speaker 1: And yeah, he's the one that is the puppet master,

124
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 1: and teams will do anything they can to stay away,

125
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:15,120
Speaker 1: including drafting a substandard player, in order to avoid the boogeyman.

126
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 2: Like appears to have happened.

127
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 1: Here Ethan Holiday, who was the son He's got the genetics.

128
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 1: The son he's talking about, Nepo baby, the son of

129
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 1: Matt Holliday who played in the major leagues for the

130
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 1: Rockies and the Cardinals. There and this guy was born

131
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 1: with a baseball glove. He came out of the womb

132
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 1: with a baseball glove. Ethan Holiday and all that stuff.

133
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,800
Speaker 1: And I think he, at the age of three days

134
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: was given a Tops baseball card. I think that's the case.

135
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe it was four or five days, but I

136
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 1: thought it was three days. It might have been four

137
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 1: or five. I thought it was three and so. But

138
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 1: the problem with Ethan Holiday is that his agent is

139
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 1: let me check my nose, Let's start the horror music. Yeah,

140
00:07:56,120 --> 00:08:01,680
Speaker 1: Scott Boris the boogey man. And the Nationals they know Boris.

141
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 1: They have done the dance with the devil. They have

142
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 1: done the dance with the devil. Bryce Harper, Scott Borris guy,

143
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 1: Bryce Harper, Scott Boris guy no longer a National, Steven

144
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 1: Strasburg a Scott Boris guy, Anthony Rendon now stealing money

145
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 1: in Anaheim, Scott Boris.

146
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 2: Guy, and every one of them, every one of them

147
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 2: under that umbrella, the.

148
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 1: Scott Boris umbrella, and every one of them costs a

149
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 1: lot of money.

150
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 2: And the results vary.

151
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 1: As the results may vary, and they definitely did vary

152
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 1: in terms of these three players, and all of them

153
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 1: left the Nationals either broke, broken or.

154
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 2: A little bit of both, a little bit of both

155
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 2: either way.

156
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 1: So what did Here's the question, what did the front

157
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:48,600
Speaker 1: office do when they had the opportunity held the top

158
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 1: pick in the draft right there they looked over, they

159
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 1: saw the big scary ghost in the mirror. They said,

160
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:02,680
Speaker 1: X nay, I'm the Boogeyman, and they passed on Holidays

161
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 1: said to be a generational talent, generational talent, baseball bloodlines

162
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:12,600
Speaker 1: all that crapola, because they know how that movie ends and.

163
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 2: They don't want to recreate that movie. So they just

164
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:15,839
Speaker 2: stayed away.

165
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 1: And that sums up the baseball draft in a nutshell.

166
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 1: It's not the most talented players that go at the top.

167
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 1: It's signability. That's what matters most. Can you get the

168
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 1: player signed? And who's the agent? Who do you want

169
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 1: to avoid and all that. So instead the Nationals, they

170
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 1: didn't really hide it. They were trying to talk up

171
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 1: this guy, Eli Willitts. They said they liked his makeup

172
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 1: and his intangibles. Now what does that mean. That is

173
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 1: a dog whistle. That is a dog whistle. That meant

174
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:55,559
Speaker 1: that Willets does not walk around the world and does

175
00:09:55,600 --> 00:10:00,840
Speaker 1: not walk into the building in Washington and does not say, Hey,

176
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:04,439
Speaker 1: I'm betting on myself, and no, he's just gonna show up,

177
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 1: put some work in and all that, and Willets will

178
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 1: walk in, He'll sign on the dotted line. Or the

179
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:14,079
Speaker 1: DOCU sign and just be a good little soldier and

180
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 1: play baseball.

181
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:16,200
Speaker 2: And make his money.

182
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 1: And that's that. And did Scott Boris cost Ethan Holiday

183
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 1: the chance to be the number one pick in the draft?

184
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 2: The answers absolutely.

185
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 1: Now, He's likely okay with that because it doesn't really

186
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 1: matter where you start, it's where you end up and

187
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 1: the money that you make and all that. And you'd

188
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 1: rather play for the Rockies as bad as they are.

189
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:38,960
Speaker 1: This guy Holiday will probably be in the major leagues

190
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 1: next season.

191
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 2: He'll be the he could even be.

192
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 1: The starting outfielder for the Rockies by the end of

193
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 1: this year. But he's gonna be right away in the

194
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 1: major leagues in a hitter friendly ballpark where you can

195
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:54,200
Speaker 1: hit home runs. The Rockies suck, They still hit better

196
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 1: at home Everyone hits better than Colorado. All right, Now

197
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,800
Speaker 1: that being said, the answer, by the way, is hell, yes,

198
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 1: Scott Boris did cost Ethan Holiday the top pick in

199
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,679
Speaker 1: the draft. So here's a the second part of this.

200
00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 1: All right, As for the wide angle lens, the big

201
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 1: picture here when you look at the twenty twenty five draft. Now,

202
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 1: I don't want to admit this publicly, but I will

203
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:20,119
Speaker 1: into these microphones.

204
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:24,160
Speaker 2: I did flip over to the draft. I did.

205
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:29,200
Speaker 1: It's just muscle memory. Sunday night, I usually watched the

206
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 1: late baseball game. That's kind of been my routine, and

207
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,080
Speaker 1: I needed to check it out, and so I flipped

208
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:35,959
Speaker 1: over and I just wasn't on and there was a.

209
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 2: Draft on, so I watched that.

210
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:43,600
Speaker 1: So the question here is how did you evaluate how

211
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:47,480
Speaker 1: did you evaluate the presentation of the twenty twenty five

212
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:51,680
Speaker 1: MLB Draft. So that's the question. So this was what

213
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 1: I call an overcompensation situation. Major League Baseball continues to

214
00:11:57,559 --> 00:11:59,720
Speaker 1: have an identity crisis. And I don't know if you

215
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 1: got the same vibe I got if you watched any

216
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:06,800
Speaker 1: of this, But you talk about trying too hard Baseball,

217
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,319
Speaker 1: as we've talked about, they know they're not cool. They

218
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 1: want to be cool, but they know they're not cool.

219
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: So what did baseball do for the draft? They brought

220
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:18,199
Speaker 1: out the mascots. We got our mascots. There's the Philly fanatic,

221
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,080
Speaker 1: there's mister Met, there's Missus Met. They're all there hanging

222
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 1: out right there. Boom, mascots check, they were there. They

223
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 1: brought out fan reaction shots, just like they have in

224
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 1: the NFL and the NBA those fan reaction shots which

225
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 1: were so choreographed. How choreographed were they It felt like

226
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:40,040
Speaker 1: you were watching a carnival cruise lines commercial and everything's choreographed.

227
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 1: Everyone's in the pool smiling, everyone's dancing smiling. It was

228
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 1: that kind of choreographed event. So they had all that,

229
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 1: they had the seat fillers, they had them there. So

230
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 1: we always had to have somebody wearing the right jersey

231
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 1: when the pick came up and all that. Uh, and

232
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:59,200
Speaker 1: other than friends and family, tell me if I'm wrong

233
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 1: with this. Other than friends and family, not a single

234
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:08,600
Speaker 1: person in that crowd at the Baseball Draft in Atlanta

235
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 1: knew who was being selected. Not a single person knew.

236
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 1: In fact, I am convinced if Major League Baseball wanted

237
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 1: to do a prank the equivalent of a phony phone

238
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,680
Speaker 1: call to a radio show, they could have announced with

239
00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:29,280
Speaker 1: the thirty fourth pick of the MLB Draft the Baltimore

240
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 1: Orioles have selected Charles Manson, and the crowd they.

241
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 2: Would have shown some oriole fans and they would have

242
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:37,760
Speaker 2: started cheering. They would have gone crazy.

243
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 1: So I really liked the way that he leads people.

244
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 2: He could be a future manager.

245
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 1: And then they said, well, and with the forty second

246
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 1: pick of the MLB Draft, the Boston Red Sox have

247
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,440
Speaker 1: drafted Jack the Ripper and they can really rip the

248
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 1: ball over. The Green Monster could have done that, Ted

249
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:56,680
Speaker 1: Bundy to the Mariners, who says no to that? Come on,

250
00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 1: top three picks, fourth pick, where do your fourth picking

251
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 1: the draft? Maybe you go Richard Ramirez, the night Stalker,

252
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:06,439
Speaker 1: you can pick him the fifth pick. Well, you go

253
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,160
Speaker 1: to go off the board. You gotta go Gary Ridgeway, right,

254
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 1: the Green Green River Killer. Just have your big board.

255
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 1: And I'm telling you the fans, they'd show the fans

256
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:18,840
Speaker 1: and they'd go, we drafted, we drafted the night Stalker,

257
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 1: all right, we.

258
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 2: Like his upside. Yeah, he's a real killer.

259
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 1: Yeah. And this is the fundamental problem with trying to

260
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 1: hype up the baseball draft. By design, you are buried

261
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 1: the moment you are drafted. You are apps unless you

262
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:36,240
Speaker 1: play for the Angels when you get called up to

263
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:37,120
Speaker 1: the major leagues right away.

264
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 2: But other than that, you're buried.

265
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 1: And it's not an instant gratification situation. It's not unlike

266
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 1: football even basketball these days. For the most part, other

267
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,120
Speaker 1: than the top five picks, most of that you're not

268
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 1: playing right away.

269
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:53,200
Speaker 2: But Baseball tried to throw this gall apart and they

270
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 2: wanted a hooton Nanny. They wanted a hooton Nanny.

271
00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:02,920
Speaker 1: And it was like an old episode, a streaming episode

272
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 1: of America's Got Talent. I mentioned the seat fillers, just

273
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: like the Super Bowl a halftime show. There was always

274
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 1: somebody there. I noticed what looked to be forced enthusiasm.

275
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 1: And they even had the cliche boo the commissioner at

276
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,200
Speaker 1: the beginning of the draft. When rob Manfraud came out,

277
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 1: they well, they boo Roger Goodell and football, and they

278
00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 1: boo Adam Silver and basketball. So we got a boo

279
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 1: Rob Manford and then they you know, he's out there

280
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: dancing with the assembled mascots and all that stuff, and

281
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 1: checked that box. But if you watched, and we checked

282
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 1: it out, if you were watching, you noticed there was

283
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,440
Speaker 1: no one for Rob Manford in terms of players to

284
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:48,160
Speaker 1: give a bro Hug two. The reason there was no

285
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 1: one to give a bro hug two for Major League

286
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:56,720
Speaker 1: Baseball's commission Rob Manford is because despite inviting many players

287
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 1: to attend the draft, as I understand I watched it,

288
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:00,360
Speaker 1: I didn't see anyone come out on day, and I

289
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 1: don't think that happened at all, because Major League Baseball

290
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:09,520
Speaker 1: threw a no hitter, a perfect game. After years of

291
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:13,360
Speaker 1: trying to convince these top young baseball players to attend

292
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 1: the draft, not a single one did nothing right, as

293
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 1: the joker says, for Major League Baseball, it was zero, zip, zilch,

294
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,000
Speaker 1: nada in terms of the players that attended.

295
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 2: All right, Now, final.

296
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:32,760
Speaker 1: Thought to San Francisco. We go to the Bay Area

297
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:38,560
Speaker 1: where Mike Kruco, longtime Giant broadcaster, whole Giant pitcher over

298
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 1: the weekend. He's the lovable chatty broadcast. We've been doing

299
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 1: Giants games for years on television, long running television booth.

300
00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 1: They're very good, by the ways, a lot of bad

301
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 1: broadcasters these days in baseball.

302
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 2: Those guys that do the Giants are pretty good.

303
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:54,200
Speaker 1: And he was waxing poetic about El Toro the bow.

304
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,240
Speaker 1: He said, I hope said this over the week and

305
00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 1: I hope Fernando Valenzuela gets into the Hall Hall of

306
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:01,760
Speaker 1: Fame someday.

307
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:04,160
Speaker 2: Mike Cruco said on NBC Sports.

308
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 1: Bay Area question, where do you stand on the argument

309
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:13,399
Speaker 1: made by Mike Cruco? It was in passing that Dodger

310
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,959
Speaker 1: legend Fernando Venezuela should be getting into Cooperstown. So I

311
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 1: fully support this. I give full throated support to the

312
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 1: argument that Fernando should be in the Baseball Hall of Fame.

313
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:27,639
Speaker 1: And this is not just about the numbers. Right, So

314
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 1: he didn't win two hundred games, I know you, Fernando.

315
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 1: The legend of Fernando is more than just the numbers.

316
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,479
Speaker 1: Then he had numbers. He won a cy Young Award

317
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 1: in nineteen eighty one, Rookie of the Year, six All

318
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 1: Star appearances in his career, nineteen eighty one World Series ring.

319
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 1: He's got that on his ledger as well, and good numbers.

320
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 1: He pitched a no hitter when people thought he was

321
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 1: washed up near what turned out to be kind of

322
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 1: near the end of his career, pitched a no hitter

323
00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 1: for the Doyers. And so he's got all that. But

324
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:03,359
Speaker 1: you can't reduce Fernando aleezuel to some kind of just

325
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 1: empty statue. The Fernando Caucus, the campaign to get Fernando

326
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:09,080
Speaker 1: in the Hall of Fame is more than just the

327
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 1: numbers there, because that completely misses the point, completely misses

328
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 1: the point about making Fernando a Hall of Famer. He

329
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:20,639
Speaker 1: was not just a pitcher. Fernando was a phenomena for

330
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,960
Speaker 1: the Dodgers. And even though he passed away, Fernando died

331
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: last year, Fernando, I think it was last. You might

332
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:30,400
Speaker 1: have been this year. But Fernando Vealezuela to this day

333
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:35,000
Speaker 1: still his legacy goes on and on and on. He

334
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 1: made Chavez Ravine shake back in those days and a

335
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 1: whole multiple generations of Mexican American fans became Dodger fan

336
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:46,320
Speaker 1: because of Fernando Mania.

337
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 2: They pad the generation, they passed on.

338
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:54,159
Speaker 1: The next generation, and Fernando Mania was the cultural force

339
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:59,200
Speaker 1: that started that. And Dodger Stadium was packed there and

340
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 1: it's still packed to this day and generations of fans

341
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:10,960
Speaker 1: mainly because of Fernando Velenzuela, and he made Dodger Stadium.

342
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: When he was pitching there, they had mariachi bands and

343
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,200
Speaker 1: it was like down the hill there in East La Man.

344
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:19,840
Speaker 1: They were going for it. And people talk about Jackie Robinson,

345
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 1: the impact Jackie Robinson had, breaking the color barrier and

346
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 1: all that, But he's Fernando in many respects for the

347
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:31,640
Speaker 1: Mexican American community. Fernando Vealezuela was the breakthrough in that area, right,

348
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:36,359
Speaker 1: and he's the one that changed things. And why not?

349
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 2: And you know, the Hall of Fame has many arguments.

350
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,320
Speaker 2: Who was a Hall of Famer was not all of them.

351
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:43,399
Speaker 1: But the Hall of Fame is supposed to honor those

352
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 1: I think that shaped the game, that shaped the sport,

353
00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:52,160
Speaker 1: the people that changed it for the better, right, who

354
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 1: mattered not just on the raw numbers. That's why there's

355
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:57,240
Speaker 1: people in the Hall of Fame. They aren't just players.

356
00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 1: There's broadcasters in the Hall of Fame and people that

357
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:02,719
Speaker 1: are around the game. So if you combine everything together

358
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:07,680
Speaker 1: with Fernando, right, the box score, that's not enough. You

359
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,640
Speaker 1: got to combine everything else. Again, that's the Fernando caucus

360
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:13,120
Speaker 1: to get him in the Hall of Fame. If you're

361
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,520
Speaker 1: not gonna have him in there, why even bother? And

362
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 1: you look at the the stiffs that are in the

363
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame and you do the what about is them?

364
00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 1: But there's some people in the Hall of Fame that

365
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 1: are very shaky resumes, like Harold Baines is a Hall

366
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:30,200
Speaker 1: of Famer. Bill Mazeroski is a Hall of Fame. Bill

367
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:34,119
Speaker 1: Mazarowski had one moment in the Hall of Fame. Phil Verzuda,

368
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:37,520
Speaker 1: who I love Phil Zoo, Yankee broadcaster. But as a player,

369
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:39,760
Speaker 1: Phil Verzudo has no business being in the Hall of Fame.

370
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,640
Speaker 1: He just happened to be with the Yankees, and he's

371
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 1: got a good personality and they liked him, and so

372
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:47,920
Speaker 1: they put him in. All But Fernando Venezuela, I mean

373
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 1: he's still gone now, but you put him in the

374
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:51,160
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame.

375
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,640
Speaker 2: Yes, I have no issue with that. Put him in.

376
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:54,119
