Speaker 1: Welcome about the territory, ladies and gentlemen. I'm a little tired.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie. It is late here, we're about
Speaker 1: what is it twelve thirty Eastern time? So good morning everybody.
Speaker 1: How you doing? Hello? Hello? Red Sox win final score
Speaker 1: four to two, record improved to fifty five and fifty.
Speaker 1: And listen, I'm I love our oldest Chapman man. This
Speaker 1: guy he's done some amazing things with the Red Sox
Speaker 1: going back to last year. But listen, it wasn't on
Speaker 1: Chapman here tonight. Got a little messy in the ninth inning.
Speaker 1: All right, we're getting more messiness from Chapman as of late.
Speaker 1: I have talked about this. The command hasn't been the
Speaker 1: same since he had that hamstring injury. Something's just been
Speaker 1: off with him. And he ended up striking out the
Speaker 1: side to close this one out here tonight. So that
Speaker 1: was great, but you had a possible double play. Anthony Siegler.
Speaker 1: I love Tony siegeals Man. I love Anthony Siegler. I
Speaker 1: love Siegs. I'm a big Siegs guy. This guy's done
Speaker 1: a lot of good things. But you're seeing a couple
Speaker 1: little things starting to pop up here. Defensively, he's had
Speaker 1: a couple of mishaps here over the last week or so. Offensively,
Speaker 1: just had a good night the other night, went four
Speaker 1: to five, great game, but you know, inconsistencies both offensively
Speaker 1: and defensively. Had a shot at a double play to
Speaker 1: end the game there tonight got botched. Luckily Chapman was
Speaker 1: able to lock it down there. But you know, especially
Speaker 1: in this ballpark, in this ballpark, you know, one swing
Speaker 1: at the bat, which we saw from Seti here tonight,
Speaker 1: we'll talk about Seti. But one swing of the game,
Speaker 1: one swing of the back can change the game, especially
Speaker 1: in Sacramento. So But in the end of the Red
Speaker 1: Sox win eighteen and three in the month of July.
Speaker 1: This really brings me back to the two thousand and
Speaker 1: four Red Sox. Honestly, when you think about how hot
Speaker 1: they got in the month of August, and they kept
Speaker 1: it going in September. In August back in two thousy
Speaker 1: and four, remember they went twenty one and seven and
Speaker 1: then they went eighteen and ten in September. Now, you know,
Speaker 1: is it the same team as the two thousand and
Speaker 1: four Red Sox. No, it is not right. No team
Speaker 1: is ever going to be like that. Goodness, Gracious, Manny
Speaker 1: and Poppy in the middle of the order, Kurt Shilling, Pager, Martinez,
Speaker 1: Holy cow. But you know, with just how hot they've been,
Speaker 1: you can't help but think back to that hot streak, right.
Speaker 1: The Red Sox just continued to find way to win games.
Speaker 1: Here in Curtis Mead's debut, which didn't go very well.
Speaker 1: Curtis Gracious, I'm thinking so Curtis Mead again, good morning
Speaker 1: if you are just listening to us, ended up leaving
Speaker 1: the game early here today. No pun intended on that,
Speaker 1: I promise, because he got traded for Connolly early. And
Speaker 1: also kind of how weird was that? Right? Curtis Mead
Speaker 1: his first game with the Red Sox in Sacramento against
Speaker 1: the A's Connolly Early's first game with the Red Sox
Speaker 1: after getting called up in Sacramento against the A's. Isn't
Speaker 1: that interesting? But Curtis me did leave the game. He
Speaker 1: got hit by a pitch on the wrist fastball ninety
Speaker 1: five miles an hour. He stayed in the game, Actually
Speaker 1: he did stay in the game. He ran and then
Speaker 1: he played defense in the bottom half, but he ended
Speaker 1: up coming out. I assumed at the time it was
Speaker 1: more of a precautionary kind of a thing. That's kind
Speaker 1: of like the fact that he stayed in I'm thinking, like,
Speaker 1: all right, they were probably checking on him and they're like,
Speaker 1: all right, how are you feeling. You know, he's probably
Speaker 1: he was probably starting to swell up a little bit,
Speaker 1: so they're like, yeah, we're not even going to a
Speaker 1: chance to this Wilson Detreris. That guy's staying in the game.
Speaker 1: Pretty much every single time, that guy, that guy will
Speaker 1: fight you. He'll come to blows with it if you
Speaker 1: tell him you're going to take him out of the game.
Speaker 1: But ended up being revealed later on just a contusion
Speaker 1: on the wrist. That's pretty much I was expecting that.
Speaker 1: But still you're holding your breath a little bit. You're like,
Speaker 1: all right, please, like, come on, nothing bad here, man,
Speaker 1: Please don't be like uh, like, you know, we're already
Speaker 1: dealing with one hand injury right with Rome and Anthony,
Speaker 1: who's still having a good old time in Fort Myers.
Speaker 1: We don't need another one. So especially the second ab
Speaker 1: in his Red Sox career. For crying out loud, I'm thinking, oh, man,
Speaker 1: Craig is already on the phone. He's he's already making
Speaker 1: cost look for a couple more bats man, man oh Man,
Speaker 1: but hopefully h Curtis Mead, he's gonna be all right.
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe misses the game tomorrow, back in a couple
Speaker 1: of days. So you dogged a huge bullet there, but
Speaker 1: the Mead socks in the end are two and zero.
Speaker 1: Gotta love that offense. This is not a great game
Speaker 1: here tonight. Man, you were you were down. You had
Speaker 1: he had a one nothing deficit for quite a little
Speaker 1: bit there. You're getting no hit through five innings by
Speaker 1: Jack Perkins. Jack Perkins looking like Roger Clemens out there.
Speaker 1: But you had the one big inning SETI with a
Speaker 1: massive grand slam here tonight. That was all the offense
Speaker 1: of the Red Sox. And said he thought he popped out.
Speaker 1: That's the beauty of Sacramento. You just put the bat
Speaker 1: on the ball all of a sudden you might have
Speaker 1: yourself a home run. So you got the one big
Speaker 1: swing to night from the Red Sox. You got the
Speaker 1: couple of base runners there. We'll talk about it. But hey,
Speaker 1: and that was all the pitching staff and needed here tonight.
Speaker 1: Peyton Totley once again a lot of fastballs, ninety pitches,
Speaker 1: five curve balls, four change ups. I am begging Peyton
Speaker 1: totally to please start throwing more curveballs and change ups. Listen,
Speaker 1: the fastball is great, but he was just a bit
Speaker 1: hittable here tonight. A couple of home runs. He was
Speaker 1: able to get through it in the end. Obviously, the
Speaker 1: guy's got great stuff on the fastball. But you know, goodness, gracious,
Speaker 1: I'm begging you please start throwing more off speed and
Speaker 1: breaking stuff. Man. I want Peyton totally to become this
Speaker 1: guy that can He's shown it before where he can
Speaker 1: go seven even editnings. I need that from Peyton totly.
Speaker 1: But you gotta figure it out here tonight Bullpen locked
Speaker 1: it down. Chatman, it got iffy there in the end,
Speaker 1: but before that, Bullpen was great. So in the end
Speaker 1: a Red Sox win wasn't the cleanest Red Sox win.
Speaker 1: It was definitely frustrating at times here tonight, but they
Speaker 1: got the job done, and that's the sign of a
Speaker 1: winning team, even against an A's team that's completely collapsed. Listen,
Speaker 1: you gotta get the job done against the bad teams.
Speaker 1: So you got it done here today. I Phoenix in
Speaker 1: the chat. Yes, s ray X rays negative on mead. Yeah,
Speaker 1: diagnosed with just a risk contusion. Thank god, Holy cal.
Speaker 1: I was not in the mood if curtis me did
Speaker 1: they announce that he had like something broken or whatever.
Speaker 1: I was gonna probably lose it, to be honestly, that's ridiculous. Anyway,
Speaker 1: let's get through it here tonight. I'm gonna keep this
Speaker 1: pretty short and sweet, ladies and gentlemen. We already went
Speaker 1: live here today. I went live for an hour and
Speaker 1: a half here today talking about the trade news. I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna be talking about any of that here. There's
Speaker 1: nothing else that's popped up. If you want to go
Speaker 1: see anything with the trade reports that we had here
Speaker 1: today on guys like CJ Abrams Section ten talking about
Speaker 1: a couple of guys, go to the episode from earlier
Speaker 1: today if you want to hear about anything that. This
Speaker 1: is strictly a postgame show and seeing what all of
Speaker 1: you got to say in the chat. Paul Roberts, one
Speaker 1: of our members, is here. Sk Gabe arch what's going on?
Speaker 1: How are we doing?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 1: We get a super chat from Steve Steve position four
Speaker 1: and six looking if he say it on Player of
Speaker 1: the game. Let's get to the post game. Steve appreciating
Speaker 1: my friend, one of our members. Thank you for the
Speaker 1: super chat. You're awesome, friend, Thank you so much. I've
Speaker 1: got a lot of familiar faces here in the chat.
Speaker 1: We've got two hundred people in the chat. Here, two
Speaker 1: hundred people. It's bedtime, ladies and gentlemen. What are you
Speaker 1: doing here? Go to bed, Go to bed, Go go
Speaker 1: wake up and watch this tomorrow. What you got? You
Speaker 1: guys are crazy, but you're awesome. At the same time,
Speaker 1: I appreciate that. Good to see a good turnout at
Speaker 1: twelve thirty Eastern time. It's past my bedtime. Here we go,
Speaker 1: let's talk about it. Let's talk about Peyton Toley, mister
Speaker 1: Peyton totally again. Lots of fastballs here tonight, a lot
Speaker 1: of them. But I just I felt like everything looked
Speaker 1: good here tonight. He felt he seemed just composed out
Speaker 1: there the entire time. Didn't think he was at all
Speaker 1: laboring at any point, just missed a couple of spots.
Speaker 1: Really had a tough first inning, though. He left a
Speaker 1: sinker up to Tyler Sodastrom, who we've talked about a
Speaker 1: little bit over the last couple of days. You can't
Speaker 1: leave a pitch up in Sacramento to Tyler soda Strom
Speaker 1: man they guy mashes in Sacramento. Funny thing was soda
Speaker 1: Strom home to road splits. He hits great at home
Speaker 1: in Sacramento on the road. I don't know, it's not
Speaker 1: very good. I believe the ops is under seven hundred
Speaker 1: on the road. Don't leave a pitch up to Tyler
Speaker 1: Soderstrom at home. Home run makes it one nothing. He
Speaker 1: bounces back. He strikes out time, but then Thomas got
Speaker 1: a base hit, and then after that he got Tommy
Speaker 1: White to ground out. He settled down a little bit more.
Speaker 1: After that second inning, Jeff McNeil with a base hit.
Speaker 1: Boltay gets on with the fours out. Alika Williams with
Speaker 1: a base hit. So again a little hit, a ble
Speaker 1: in the early part, but then Wong throws out Boltay
Speaker 1: at third, and then you got a ground out from Butler.
Speaker 1: Third inning, good inning, he strikes out him and Thomas
Speaker 1: on good cutters. Fourth inning, Monasteria mix an error. Boltay
Speaker 1: gets on, but then he works around that. He strikes
Speaker 1: out Alka Williams. After that fifth inning a couple more strikeouts.
Speaker 1: He gets Butler on a sinker will sit on a
Speaker 1: cutter six inning. We'll get to the Red Sox offense
Speaker 1: thing just a second, But they put up a four
Speaker 1: spot in the top half of the six. The A's
Speaker 1: answer back, though, Jonaheim with a home run, makes it
Speaker 1: four to two. It was actually I felt like a
Speaker 1: pretty well located pitch down in inside corner. Jonaheim just
Speaker 1: did a great job, just mashed it. What can you do?
Speaker 1: He strikes out coolby Thomas on a four seemer up
Speaker 1: and away after that, and that was the end of
Speaker 1: the night for Peyton Toley five and a third, five
Speaker 1: hits to earn, seven strikeouts, one walk. You know again,
Speaker 1: it's it wasn't a bad night at all for It
Speaker 1: was a good night for Peyton Toley. But I just
Speaker 1: know this guy is capable of going seven innings if
Speaker 1: he just mixes up the pitch mix a little bit more.
Speaker 1: I'd love to know what like is that? Is it
Speaker 1: like a confidence thing with the breaking stuff and the
Speaker 1: off speed. Is it just by design? I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. Oh, we got a
Speaker 1: member who became a member, Hi Phoenix became a member.
Speaker 1: Oh we gotta play the music I'll be honest, Phoenix.
Speaker 1: I in my head, I'm already thinking you were a
Speaker 1: member because you're always here. But I appreciate you, my friend,
Speaker 1: becoming a Monster member. Man oh man, thank you my friend.
Speaker 1: Appreciate everyone coming out. Uh what else we got? Well,
Speaker 1: that was it for Peyton, totally. That was it for Peyton, totally. Bullpen.
Speaker 1: Awesome job from the bullpen. We'll get to them in
Speaker 1: just a second. Let's get to the offense here. This
Speaker 1: is why I might need to find a different sound
Speaker 1: for the members, because I mean, I know you all
Speaker 1: love the home run sound, but just just to mix
Speaker 1: it up a little bit, just to mix it up.
Speaker 1: I don't know. We're still we're still on hold when
Speaker 1: it comes to the member sound, still on hold. Got
Speaker 1: to figure that out. As for the Red Sox, like
Speaker 1: I said, Jack Roger Clemons, Perkins, this guy was just
Speaker 1: shutting it down here today. No offense who the first
Speaker 1: five innings. Massa got on with the walk to start
Speaker 1: the game. Nothing after that. Monasteria with a walk in
Speaker 1: the third, and Curtis Mead got on. But unfortunately it
Speaker 1: wasn't in the best fashion. Like I said, getting hit
Speaker 1: by a pitch on the wrist, ninety five miles an
Speaker 1: hour on the fastball. Well, he in his Red Sox
Speaker 1: debut in his first ab strikes out looking on a sweeper.
Speaker 1: So not a good start there, and then you get
Speaker 1: hit by a pitch. What a debut curs? Please don't
Speaker 1: be a sign of things to come. Please, please listen.
Speaker 1: I'm not expecting the guy to hit a home run
Speaker 1: in his first game of the Red Sox. But come on, man,
Speaker 1: let's not do this hopefully, Let's trust the numbers, trust
Speaker 1: the process. He'll be fine. He'll be fine. But like
Speaker 1: I said, you have nothing else going on. Well with
Speaker 1: Curtis Mead, you know, like I said, he did stay
Speaker 1: in the game, pink Chran played some defense, but enough
Speaker 1: was enough. I guess he wasn't feeling it. I guess
Speaker 1: it was swelling up. I don't know. He comes out again,
Speaker 1: diagnosed with a risk contusion. X rays are negative. So all,
Speaker 1: Like I said, I just feel like they were being
Speaker 1: taking precaution of that. I think they just didn't want
Speaker 1: to take any chances a guy they just acquired, you know,
Speaker 1: I mean, you don't want take any chances there. So
Speaker 1: Anthony Siegler ends up coming in and then you have
Speaker 1: the big six inning Wong with a double Masa Siegler
Speaker 1: do ground out after that, so you're thinking, oh man,
Speaker 1: we might this might be a little short lived. But
Speaker 1: then Wilson drawing a walk. That was the end of
Speaker 1: the night for Jack. Roger Clemens, Perkins William comes up next.
Speaker 1: He draws a walk and here comes mister Setti. Two
Speaker 1: well by Ella in the air to the left. Thomas
Speaker 1: goes back onto the track at the ball. That ball's
Speaker 1: gone a slam for Saint don.
Speaker 2: Say loves the big moments. He gets a two zero
Speaker 2: slider to Suarez, best pitch, and you gotta love this ballpark.
Speaker 2: You'll take it. Maybe it got burned earlier with that
Speaker 2: soda some Sodo shop, but you'll take the grand slam
Speaker 2: from Satan When he went three sixty one ninety eight
Speaker 2: off the back and you see the ball just taking off.
Speaker 2: It was a great effort by Thomas, looking like you
Speaker 2: got a piece of it. Couldn't keep in the gloves.
Speaker 1: So again with Seti, it looked like a pop up.
Speaker 1: I mean it was under one hundred miles an hour.
Speaker 1: On the exit of ve Low went three hundred and
Speaker 1: eighty two feet but you get it had a forty
Speaker 1: degree long shangle. That's a pop up in a lot
Speaker 1: of parks. You know what. Let me actually pull up here,
Speaker 1: let me go to statcast. Was that a home run
Speaker 1: in any other park? I'm sure this has been posted
Speaker 1: somewhere on social media? Is that? Let me see? Where
Speaker 1: is it? Where is it? Where is it? Uh? SETI,
Speaker 1: it's a oh okay, Oh actually no, it would have
Speaker 1: been a home run in a lot of parks. Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, let's take that back. It would have been
Speaker 1: a home run in twenty six parks. It would not
Speaker 1: have been gone in Atlanta, funny enough, it would not
Speaker 1: have left Cores Angel Stadium and PNC, So all right,
Speaker 1: I backtrack what I said there. But you kind of
Speaker 1: looked at it off the bat didn't look like it,
Speaker 1: you know, it was gonna be enough. But it carried.
Speaker 1: It carried. So in the end, SETI, Grand slam. Haven't
Speaker 1: had a whole lot of Grand slams to the Red
Speaker 1: Sox this year, a whole lot of Grand slams. But
Speaker 1: that was all the Red Sox offense needed. Now, I
Speaker 1: did get a little frustrated in the seventh inning Monasterio
Speaker 1: with a double long, he lays down a bunt, ends
Speaker 1: up popping out a rare out on a bun attempt
Speaker 1: from a catcher. I was just saying today, these guys
Speaker 1: have been great long and narviased when it comes to bunts,
Speaker 1: so that was rare. This is where I got frustrated.
Speaker 1: Monasterio trying to steal third. I don't see why. I
Speaker 1: just don't I get it. You got one out, he steals,
Speaker 1: and then you know, fly ball, you get another run.
Speaker 1: But it's just one of those times where I just
Speaker 1: don't I don't know, I don't see the need. He's
Speaker 1: already in scoring position. Let the guy swing, and then
Speaker 1: he gets thrown out. They did challenge, and uh, it
Speaker 1: looked like he might have gotten a hand in because
Speaker 1: he kind of did when he was sliding in right.
Speaker 1: He pulled back his left arm and he went in
Speaker 1: with the right and it looked like he might have
Speaker 1: gotten in. But I actually said, like, I don't know,
Speaker 1: it looked like the glove kind of grazed him a
Speaker 1: little bit. It was kind of tough to call, but
Speaker 1: in the end they said he was out. So I
Speaker 1: just felt like it was a little too over aggressive.
Speaker 1: And then you end up getting a base hit from Masa,
Speaker 1: Like I to me, just you're in scoring position, let
Speaker 1: Masa swing. I get it. You've had a tough night.
Speaker 1: You know, you're trying to make stuff happen. I don't know.
Speaker 1: You just felt like the bats were waking up. Here
Speaker 1: again you see the big six inning, Mona with a double.
Speaker 1: You just felt like, kind of you were gaining some momentum.
Speaker 1: Luckily ended up working out, but Masa with the base hit.
Speaker 1: But then the Siegler strikes out. Bullpen was great here tonight.
Speaker 1: Slayton takes care of the sixth Moran with a couple
Speaker 1: of k's. In the seventh, he looked good. Whitlock with
Speaker 1: a one two three, He looked fantastic locating his pitches.
Speaker 1: And then here comes Chapman. Thomas gets a bass hit.
Speaker 1: He strikes out o White on a sinker. Up here
Speaker 1: comes Kurtz. Dude's a freak, Dude's a monster. He's basically
Speaker 1: a modern day Jason Giambi from the A's back in
Speaker 1: the Day ten picks. Ab Kurtz is as good as
Speaker 1: they come, man when it comes to working the counts.
Speaker 1: Incredible play, discipline, guy's great guess, such good awareness of
Speaker 1: the strike zone ground bold Siegler bobbles it on the
Speaker 1: attempt to throw it, a second on the transfer, messes
Speaker 1: up a game ending double play. So Chatman, he's got
Speaker 1: to really lock it down here. Boltay strikes him out
Speaker 1: on a really nice splitter down and in, and then
Speaker 1: he strikes out of a leak of Williams ninety seven
Speaker 1: above the zone. Again, Chapman, I mean, shoots, he got
Speaker 1: three strikeouts here, but it's just like it's a you know,
Speaker 1: giving up the base hit and most stereo. He did
Speaker 1: have the attempt, but you know, it was just hitting
Speaker 1: the right spot. I just feel like he's just giving
Speaker 1: up more contact lately. The command hasn't been you know,
Speaker 1: I feel like he's throwing a lot of pitches. You know, again,
Speaker 1: he got the strikeouts, right, it's just how he gets there.
Speaker 1: You know. This is where we keep talking about bats
Speaker 1: of the lineup. I'll keep saying it. Do not forget
Speaker 1: about this bullpen. I do think Craig is going to
Speaker 1: make a move for this bullpen. I really do. I
Speaker 1: would love if if you could go get Adrian Morhon.
Speaker 1: I think that would be absolutely fan freaking tastic. If
Speaker 1: you can go get that no Aj Minterter on the
Speaker 1: Mets I think would be really nice. You need another
Speaker 1: high leverage arm in my opinion, someone to go with
Speaker 1: Chapman and Whitlock, just to give you another option at
Speaker 1: the back. I feel like you really you got Slaton
Speaker 1: there too, but I would really love a shut down
Speaker 1: lefty if you can go get that. Red Sox win.
Speaker 1: Final score four to two. Not a great game for
Speaker 1: the Red Sox here again a couple of errors here tonight.
Speaker 1: The offense didn't wake up until halfway through. Curtis Mead,
Speaker 1: goodness gracious, that is scared the crap out of me.
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, oh great, we got to go trade for
Speaker 1: another bat. But in the end, Red Sox find a
Speaker 1: way to get it done. Records at fifty five and fifty.
Speaker 1: Let's take a look at the standings. What do we
Speaker 1: got for the standings? So taking a look here. Yankees
Speaker 1: do win again here tonight against the White Sox. So
Speaker 1: everyone in the Ale East winning here, but the Red
Speaker 1: Sox again fifty five and fifty. They're seven back in
Speaker 1: the East. Looking at the wild card, still holding onto
Speaker 1: the second wildcard. They're up by two games Cleveland. I
Speaker 1: think they were off today if I remember correctly, but
Speaker 1: they've dropped five in a row. They're hanging on to
Speaker 1: the third wildcard. The Twins are just hanging around here,
Speaker 1: one game back. The Mariners are a couple of games back.
Speaker 1: Houston's a couple of games back. What a dog fight
Speaker 1: that's turning into in the Ale West? I mean the Rangers.
Speaker 1: This Ale West has not looked very good, you know,
Speaker 1: the Rangers leading the division with a record of fifty
Speaker 1: four and fifty two, and then the Mariners and the
Speaker 1: Astro still hanging around. So that's gonna be a dog
Speaker 1: fight until the end. But for the Red Sox, good
Speaker 1: win here today solidified your position in the wild card
Speaker 1: standings even more. Gotta love it, c a Blue eighty
Speaker 1: two to fifty five Red Sox should get Bobby Doll back. Listen,
Speaker 1: give me twenty twenty one Bobby doll back all day,
Speaker 1: every day. Man. Love that. Paul Roberts Lou made a
Speaker 1: great point during the broadcast. Stats don't always tell the
Speaker 1: whole story with pictures. Yeah, I think a lot too,
Speaker 1: just kind of the with the way the game is going,
Speaker 1: just seeing a lot more teams just doing you know,
Speaker 1: focusing a bit more on bat to ball A right,
Speaker 1: so there's gonna be more variables coming into play. But
Speaker 1: in the end, I think totally he did a good
Speaker 1: job here today. Again, I just want him to kind
Speaker 1: of mix up that repertoire a little bit more. Oh,
Speaker 1: Paul Roberts Cleveland got postponed. Oh ray, Now, okay, that
Speaker 1: makes sense. Did not see that, But all right, MVP
Speaker 1: Nation give me twenty twenty three. Tristan Cassas, Man, Tristan Cassas,
Speaker 1: what happened? What happened to him? I mean? Good is gracious?
Speaker 1: Where where even is he is he? And fort Buyers?
Speaker 1: Where is Christan Costas? I don't even know where he is.
Speaker 1: I haven't heard anything about him. I think the last
Speaker 1: time he uh, I think he's still like he's uh
Speaker 1: what was it the rib injury or something else got hurt?
Speaker 1: I can't I don't even remember. So anyway, Game two tomorrow,
Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, let's take a quick look pitching matchup
Speaker 1: for tomorrow. I'm very excited about this pitching matchup. Jump
Speaker 1: one of my favorite pitching prospects coming into the year.
Speaker 1: He's had a couple of bumps here, but this is
Speaker 1: a guy, he's gonna be really tough. Like sure, you
Speaker 1: might look at that era and be like, oh, okay,
Speaker 1: that's not really anything. The FIP looks a lot better
Speaker 1: at a three point eighty three. This is a guy
Speaker 1: where he's gonna be a very tough ab The one
Speaker 1: thing about gauge jump he has a lot of deception.
Speaker 1: He's very hard to pick up. He doesn't have a
Speaker 1: lot of extension, but he hides the ball really well.
Speaker 1: He's a pretty crafty lefty. Now it's taking a look
Speaker 1: at stat cast. I mean, he's gonna give you some
Speaker 1: pretty good VLO from the left side, averages right around
Speaker 1: ninety six miles an hour. He's gonna get guys to chase,
Speaker 1: he's gonna pick up the strikeouts. He's gonna limit barrels.
Speaker 1: He's kind of like he's kind of weird, right. He
Speaker 1: gives up a good amount of exit VLO, but he
Speaker 1: doesn't give up a whole lot of barrels. So sounds
Speaker 1: like Sacramento if you ask me. He's pretty middle of
Speaker 1: the road with his command. Yeah, I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: he's a guy that I think you should be able
Speaker 1: to get a couple of runs off of him at
Speaker 1: least he's a rookie and taking a look at the
Speaker 1: numbers with the pitches, his slider has been very good.
Speaker 1: Batter's only hitting two thirteen against it, but the fastball,
Speaker 1: batter's hitting three h four against it. His changeup has
Speaker 1: not been very effective, so you know, he's really relying
Speaker 1: on that slider this year. Seems to me he's still
Speaker 1: trying to figure out like kind of working his way
Speaker 1: through counts at the major league level, and if he's
Speaker 1: able to break out that slider, then he's going to
Speaker 1: have success. So hey, get ahead in the count against
Speaker 1: this guy, all right, start to jump on him before
Speaker 1: he gets you into into a pictures count. So I
Speaker 1: think that's gonna be the key we'll see. But Jake Bennett,
Speaker 1: you know, with Bennett, I mean obviously, I mean Benn,
Speaker 1: it's been the real deal. Looking at Bennett's well, actually,
Speaker 1: let me really quick, let me pull up Gage Jump's
Speaker 1: last start. He actually is coming off a really rough
Speaker 1: start in Arizona. Four and two thirds, eight hits, six earned.
Speaker 1: He give up three home runs, four walks, so his
Speaker 1: command was way off in Arizona. So hopefully you can
Speaker 1: capitalize here, take advantage he has not been able to
Speaker 1: go deep into these last couple of starts against Washington
Speaker 1: two times ago, he only went three and two thirds.
Speaker 1: He struck out eight, but they drove up the pitch count.
Speaker 1: It looks like, yeah, Arizona, that was a really rough start.
Speaker 1: But Jake Bennett, again, he's been phenomenal this year. I
Speaker 1: do think in the end it was a very good
Speaker 1: chance he's gonna get end up getting Rookie of the
Speaker 1: Year votes. He's been phenomenal. He all right a two
Speaker 1: point five to eight fit at a three point one three.
Speaker 1: You're not getting a whole lot of strikeouts with Bennett,
Speaker 1: but the guy is not walking anyone. The command is
Speaker 1: off the charts. He's not giving up any home runs.
Speaker 1: The sinker and or the sinker and the change up
Speaker 1: this year I've just been a really nice combination with him.
Speaker 1: His changeup has been off the sharts. Four seamers been
Speaker 1: really good, funny enough with the sinker, he does have
Speaker 1: a good run value off of it, but batters are
Speaker 1: hitting two seventy seven with a four hundred slugging But
Speaker 1: uh does have a positive run value. But again it's
Speaker 1: that change up works up in the zone with the fastballs,
Speaker 1: works down in the zone with the off speed. He
Speaker 1: changes locations very well. Jake Bennett is very simple. Love
Speaker 1: what he's been able to do now. In his last
Speaker 1: start was you know, a little bumpy. He gave up
Speaker 1: nine hits against the Orioles, three earned. He did give
Speaker 1: up a home run, actually only his fourth home run
Speaker 1: of the year. So yeah, the Orioles, you know that
Speaker 1: was a hot team coming in. He had to just eat.
Speaker 1: But he found a way to maneuver through that line
Speaker 1: if he got good bats. So yes, in the chat
Speaker 1: Dino risk contusion, yes, Ian Falance, Yes, Curtis Meade risk contusion,
Speaker 1: X rays, negative dogs, a massive bullet, Holy cal So.

Speaker 1: matchup for tomorrow. Jake Bennett, gauge jump everybody. I am
