1 00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:05,080 Speaker 1: All right, that's it to feel you. Oh, want to talk? 2 00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:05,600 Speaker 2: That's all. 3 00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:09,800 Speaker 1: Today is Saturday, August tenth, and the Yankees were taking 4 00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:13,480 Speaker 1: on the world champion Texas Rangers in game one of 5 00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:17,400 Speaker 1: a double header. Carlos Rodan on the mound. Terrence Cavin 6 00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:19,920 Speaker 1: here to talk about it with me. My recap, your 7 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:23,200 Speaker 1: reactions coming up next. This is NYY Recaps. 8 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:31,960 Speaker 2: Welcome her, pull me back. 9 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 1: All right, how's it going everybody? Nice win for the 10 00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,440 Speaker 1: Yankees today, the rain is over, Baseball is back on 11 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:46,320 Speaker 1: the menu, runs and hits back on the menu. Yankees 12 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:49,639 Speaker 1: breakout for twelve hits and they shut out the Rangers 13 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:53,520 Speaker 1: eight to nothing. A couple of games on the menu today. 14 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:55,960 Speaker 1: I got a double header, second double header in four days. 15 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,600 Speaker 1: TK kind of crazy. Hey, you guys, get you guys, 16 00:00:58,640 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: get hurricanes out there. 17 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 2: No hurricanes, but half the states on fire. And I 18 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 2: actually we got an earthquake the other day. My entire 19 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 2: apartment was shaking, which is a very freaky feeling. I'm 20 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 2: an East Coast person. I'm not used to earthquakes. They 21 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,920 Speaker 2: obviously happened out here all the time. But I was 22 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 2: in my car at a red light once and like 23 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 2: your car, just starts shaking. It's a very odd sensation. 24 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I've been in one earthquake. I didn't realize 25 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: it was happening, but it was just kind of a 26 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 1: mild like it was actually like fifty miles north of us, 27 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 1: and we could just kind of feel it where we were. 28 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:31,760 Speaker 1: But I just realized I got some stuff on my 29 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 1: shirt here. I got some grease. I was eating pizza, 30 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:38,040 Speaker 1: so I look like a schlid. But anyway, Yankees pick 31 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: up a big win in Game one. Let's talk a 32 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 1: little bit about this game here. I've always liked watching 33 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: Nathan Yavaldi as a pitcher. I liked him when he 34 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: was with the Yankees. I love his split finger fastball. 35 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 1: He was a guy who threw one hundred miles an hour, 36 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 1: but for a long time he got hit anyway. And 37 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 1: it wasn't until he developed a cutter after he left 38 00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 1: the Yankees that he really became dominant. But the Yankees 39 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 1: got to him today. Glaber Torres got things started. He 40 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 1: continues to heat up offensively. Maybe the pressure is off 41 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 1: of him a little bit now that the trade deadline 42 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 1: has passed. Another couple of hits for Austin Wells Yankees 43 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: knocked Evaldi out after three innings. Wells also had a 44 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 1: two run single off the bullpen to run double off 45 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 1: of Vivaldi. Judge had a big day. He's creeping up 46 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 1: towards three point thirty with the batting average. Imagine TK 47 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: he hits three thirty three forty with sixty home runs. 48 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: You're talking about the best offensive season of his career 49 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,919 Speaker 1: and probably since Barry Bonds in twenty oh one. 50 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's starting to get scary. This is video game 51 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 2: numbers esque. This is numbers you put up with your 52 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 2: Road to the Show player in MLB, the show with 53 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 2: the sliders turned all the way up. It's starting to 54 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 2: get stupid. He's getting the Bonds treatment. They're intentionally walking him. 55 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 2: It's pretty upsetting to see. Actually, I actually have some 56 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,080 Speaker 2: thoughts about that. I remember Michael kay was mentioning about 57 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 2: maybe making some pretty radical rule changes to baseball to 58 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 2: try to the biggest problem with baseball compared to the 59 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 2: other sports is He made this point, but in the 60 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 2: final minute of the game, Steph Curry has the ball. 61 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 2: In the final drive of the game, Patrick Mahomes has 62 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 2: the ball. Baseball because of the way that its structure 63 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 2: doesn't have that. So I was saying, like, how about 64 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 2: in the bottom of the ninth the lineup resets to 65 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 2: your leadoff guy, so Aaron Judge gets the at bat. 66 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 2: It's a super radical change, but you gotta pottom. 67 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:29,640 Speaker 1: Of the ninth, not bottom of the ninth, maybe like 68 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 1: bottom twelve, bottom fifteen. 69 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 2: But like, you just got to get a little funky 70 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 2: where you're trying to give your star player an at 71 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 2: bat in the biggest moment of the game. You can't 72 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 2: have something where it's like, well, you can't play, because 73 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 2: essentially that's what the Blue Jays did with Judge when 74 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 2: they walked in him, like they just took the bat 75 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 2: out of his hands. 76 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: I hear you. That's still a little bit too radical 77 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 1: for me to change change the batting order in the 78 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 1: ninth inning. It's I mean, that also takes away like 79 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: the unsung hero getting the big walk off hit right, 80 00:03:57,960 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 1: the big walk off home run a lot of times. 81 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 1: So anyway, we'll talk about it as as we move forward. Here, 82 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 1: Let's talk a little bit about Carlos Rodan. He had 83 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 1: a pretty solid day today. He walked five hitters, which 84 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: is too many in my book, but only allowed three hits, 85 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 1: no runs. He threw one hundred and ten pitches, fourteen 86 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: swings and misses. His picks. Mitch was much better today. 87 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,160 Speaker 1: Sixty fastballs, twenty six sliders, fifteen change ups, and nine 88 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: curve balls. So he was throwing the kitchen sink out 89 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,920 Speaker 1: there to get out of some jams, some self induced jams, 90 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,159 Speaker 1: by the way, because he was walking guys. But two 91 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 1: point two two ERA over his last four starts, opponents 92 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 1: hitting one fifty one TK. How are you feeling about 93 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 1: Carlos Rodin at this point? 94 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 2: Feel really good about him, especially since the last few starts. 95 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 2: I'm gonna nitpick a little bit. I'd like for him, obviously, 96 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 2: to have a little bit more command. You don't want 97 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 2: to see that many walks. That's why he didn't go 98 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,720 Speaker 2: as deep in the game as he could have. I 99 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 2: was actually really surprised that they sent him out for 100 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 2: the sixth inning. I didn't think they would, but they did. 101 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,599 Speaker 2: You got to applaud his mentality when he's out there though. 102 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 2: That guy's a dog. He wants the ball. He never 103 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:00,840 Speaker 2: wants to come out. I'm sure he was in the 104 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 2: dugout and Boone was like, hey, you want to go 105 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 2: back down. He was just like, hell yeah, Like he 106 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 2: definitely was the one I think who was probably adamant 107 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,479 Speaker 2: about that. And I've been saying this before, but I 108 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 2: think a twelve to six curveball development over the offseason 109 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 2: will take him to another level. I think that pitch 110 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 2: would be really good for him. I'd love to see 111 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 2: him develop that. Maybe a little bit of command and 112 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 2: put away guys a little faster so he can get 113 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 2: deeper into games. But all in all, good stuff, good stuff. 114 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:26,599 Speaker 1: Yeah, he already throws a curveball. It's just the shape, 115 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 1: you know. If he could just change up the shape 116 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 1: a little bit, I mean, it could be a nasty pitch. 117 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: But he did throw sixteen pitches of sixteen curveballs today. 118 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 1: So let's talk a little bit about the future infield here. 119 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 1: Because Oswald Pirozze hit another home run yesterday. You were 120 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 1: adamant and I was in agreement that they were going 121 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: to trade him at the deadline. They did not. They 122 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: held onto him for some reason. We got Caleb Durbin 123 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: back in the lineup. Vivas's getting on base at almost 124 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 1: a four hundred clip in the minor leagues. Jazz Chishm 125 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: went deep today, he can play both second and third 126 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 1: really well. They still have DJ Mayhew under contract, so 127 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,479 Speaker 1: I'm just thinking about this potential long term log jam 128 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 1: while we have some time here in between games. How 129 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: do you set it up when you got Jazz Chisholm, 130 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: Vivas Parazza, Durban, Oswaldo Cabrera who had another hit today, 131 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,599 Speaker 1: and then DJ Lemayhew all his infield options next year. 132 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: I think DJ's probably going mostly to the bench, if 133 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,720 Speaker 1: he's even still on the team. But you know who's 134 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:24,919 Speaker 1: gonna be your third baseman, who's gonna be your second basement? 135 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: How do you line it up? 136 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 2: I'm all right, so Torres is gone. Let's just he is. 137 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,360 Speaker 2: I like Jazz at second, but he's played a really 138 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 2: good third base, so I'm pretty comfortable with having him 139 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 2: over there right now. Orbit Vivas he's a kid I 140 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 2: don't and so is Durban, So you don't really know 141 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:44,479 Speaker 2: what he's gonna do at the next level. He could 142 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:48,039 Speaker 2: be amazing, he could not be. Oswald Parraza is a 143 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 2: weird thing because to me right now, yeah, he's raking 144 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 2: in triple A, but every time he comes Buck comes up, 145 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,600 Speaker 2: he stops hitting. He's like a Quadruple A player, you 146 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:56,160 Speaker 2: know what I mean. 147 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,920 Speaker 1: So well his first his first time up, he did 148 00:06:58,920 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 1: pretty well. 149 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 2: He hit three, yeah, for sure, But they've kind of 150 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 2: treated him unfairly. I I don't know why they kept 151 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 2: kept him. They should have traded him. There's a weird 152 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 2: like you could have traded him for some for some 153 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 2: depth that you needed some some pitching. You always need pitching, 154 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 2: and I definitely think he had some value. Maybe they'll 155 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 2: trade him this offseason and the strong finish to the 156 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 2: Triple A season will get his value back up a 157 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 2: little bit. So it remains to be seen. But yeah, 158 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 2: there's a lot of infield options. That's why I was DJ. 159 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 2: Having the six years instead of five is such a 160 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 2: killer because if next year was the last year of 161 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 2: his contract, it's way easier to have him ride the 162 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 2: bench or even eat the last year of the contract 163 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 2: if you want. The two years is a killer, and 164 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 2: I knew that was going to be a problem when 165 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 2: they signed him. But yeah, Parazza, I like it, h 166 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 2: but I'm probably going Chisholm. It's probably Chishim at third 167 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 2: or second de vnding on how it shakes out. We 168 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 2: know Paraza can play third, your bit and Durban we 169 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 2: got to see what he does. And although I like 170 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 2: him off the bench because he's a nice utility piece. 171 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: And I just realized that auto corrected Durbin to Dunham 172 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 1: for some reason, so I fixed that. So sorry about 173 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 1: the tybo on the screen. Let's preview game two here 174 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:08,679 Speaker 1: before we get to the recap. So we got Garrett 175 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 1: Cole on the mound in game two. How are you 176 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 1: feeling about Garrett Cole? His recent number has not been 177 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 1: great five point nine ERA since coming back. How are 178 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: you feeling about him? 179 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's still in. He's still in April right now, 180 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 2: April May. I don't think he's really locked it in yet. 181 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 2: I think we saw it last year with Rodan. Guys 182 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 2: who don't really get a lot of spring training licks 183 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 2: struggle out of the gate, even Judge who struggled in 184 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 2: April because he wasn't locked in yet. He didn't get 185 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 2: his timing down. So I think it's just a matter 186 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 2: of time for him. He is probably the best pitcher 187 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 2: in baseball. I guess you could argue to Trek Scoogle 188 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,800 Speaker 2: is up there now too, and probably even Paul Skeens 189 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 2: is in that conversation. But yeah, Garrett Coole want Yeah, Man, 190 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 2: he's just gross, but he is one of the best 191 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 2: pitchers in baseball. I do think he'll figure it out. 192 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 2: He's he's an absolute pitching so he's a professor of 193 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 2: the game. I think it's just a matter of time 194 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 2: until he gets those mechanics locked in and he's Garret 195 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:09,079 Speaker 2: Cole like we all know and love. 196 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gonna say he breaks out tonight because the uh, 197 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:17,439 Speaker 1: the Rangers are struggling offensively and Cole's had, you know, 198 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,959 Speaker 1: a couple of days you know, rest to just kind of, 199 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 1: you know, sit around and work on mechanics and things 200 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 1: like that. So I feel like he's gonna bust out tonight. 201 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 1: All right, let's get to the recap here because Yankees 202 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 1: going shut down the Rangers. Yankees got on the board first, 203 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 1: and we'll move through this quick because we got another 204 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 1: game here starting about fifteen to twenty minutes. Yankees got 205 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 1: on the board first on a base hit from Glaber Torres. 206 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,319 Speaker 1: He has low key been using the right side of 207 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 1: the field much better and thus he's hitting much better. 208 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 1: His numbers have been much better. Other night, he almost 209 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,319 Speaker 1: hit that three run home run Rain kind of knocked 210 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 1: it down, but I think he's been swinging the bad better. TK. 211 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:55,680 Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on Glabor. 212 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,079 Speaker 2: Yeah, the best version of Glaber Torres is when he's 213 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,440 Speaker 2: going right center and that's his approach. He starts to 214 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 2: not be good when he's trying to pull the ball 215 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,200 Speaker 2: all the time. His approach has got to be you 216 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 2: take the fastball to right center field and the hanging 217 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 2: breaking ball, you pull it for a home run. That's 218 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,200 Speaker 2: I'm sure that's what Rousing tells him every day. But 219 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 2: then that kind of seemed like it went out the 220 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 2: window when he got up in the box in the 221 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 2: beginning of the year. But Labor Torres, I think at 222 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 2: this point he's probably he knows he's not coming back. 223 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 2: I know he desperately wants to, and he desperately wants 224 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 2: to be a Yankee, but he's not coming back. Even 225 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 2: if he was putting up a great season, Yes, they 226 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 2: would be much more reluctant to let him go, but 227 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,680 Speaker 2: it would still be a conversation of whether or not 228 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,199 Speaker 2: they want to resign him. Just because priority number one 229 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 2: is resigning Soda. I'm sorry, Labor Torres is not Juan Soda. 230 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 2: It's not even close. We all know that, So I 231 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 2: think it would still even be a conversation even if 232 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 2: he was hitting let's say two seventy with twenty home 233 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 2: runs at this point. But with him, good for him, 234 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 2: Good for him to try to do a little salvaging 235 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:01,080 Speaker 2: with the contract that he is gonna end up getting. 236 00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 2: I wouldn't be surprised, Derek if he signs like a 237 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 2: like a Blake Snell sort of three year deal with 238 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 2: opt outs after one and two, you know what I mean. 239 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:14,079 Speaker 1: Maybe, Yeah, you know, it's a shame because it looked 240 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 1: like he was really on track for a monster career 241 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 1: before the COVID season. I remember there was this graphic 242 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: that came out. Do you remember this where it came 243 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 1: out and it projected it was his FanGraph projections for 244 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 1: like five years, and it was like a rod numbers 245 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: like three twenty thirty five home runs, forty five home runs, 246 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: forty seven home run It was like WHOA. So yeah, 247 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 1: it's definitely been a disappointing Yankees career for Glaber Torres 248 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 1: in terms of what we thought he could provide. But 249 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,080 Speaker 1: glad to see he's getting it going. Maybe he can 250 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 1: get hot in the playoffs and like you said, get 251 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 1: a little bit more money. Carlos Rodin worked into an 252 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 1: out of trouble in the second and he kind of 253 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: lost the zone a few times today. Bottom three Austin 254 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:53,959 Speaker 1: Wells with a big two run double into the right 255 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,559 Speaker 1: field gap. Wells is becoming a dangerous hitter. TK. How 256 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: you like in Wells love. 257 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,319 Speaker 2: And what I'm seeing. And at the beginning of the 258 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,600 Speaker 2: year you mentioned this he was a very unlucky hitter 259 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 2: when you look at the deep metrics, and I think 260 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 2: that's some of that luck is really starting to turn around. 261 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 2: And I was thinking this during the game, and I 262 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 2: haven't even mentioned this to you, so I want to 263 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 2: get your thoughts here fresh. But I'm feeling and I'm 264 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 2: making this call right now. Sophomore breakout for Austin Wales. 265 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, well, I guess this is his rookie year. 266 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 1: I was thinking it was his second year because he 267 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 1: played last year, but he didn't play enough to qualify. Yeah, 268 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 1: he's a guy. I think you know he's gonna have 269 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 1: a monster season one of these years because he's got 270 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 1: such a sweet swing. The only thing that's gonna hold 271 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 1: him back is that he's a catcher, and catchers get 272 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 1: beat up, right, I mean, you catch foul tips off 273 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 1: the hands, your knees get messed up. It's an exhausting, 274 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 1: tiring position. You get just beat up all year long. 275 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 1: And that's why guys don't play one hundred and forty 276 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,839 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty games at catching at catcher very often. 277 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:55,439 Speaker 1: So I think that's the only thing that's going to 278 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 1: hold back his offense. But I see no reason he 279 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 1: can't be a twenty home run guy. He can't, you know, 280 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: hit to eighty two ninety like he's that type of hitter, 281 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 1: and that's that's huge if you're a catcher. 282 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 2: So his defense has been great too, which is really 283 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 2: big plus because that was a concern when he got 284 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 2: up here. But he's got to be the starting catcher 285 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 2: at this point. Travino has got to be the backup. 286 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,680 Speaker 2: But yeah, I totally agree with you. Two eighty twenty 287 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 2: twenty twenty five home runs, I would think, and like 288 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 2: you said, catcher beats you up. He's not going to 289 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 2: be Adlie Rushman. But I definitely think he can be 290 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,599 Speaker 2: a very very serviceable twenty to twenty five if he 291 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:32,439 Speaker 2: has a great season. Thirty home run guy. 292 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, so Rodin walked two more guys in the fifth 293 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 1: in or fourth inning, excuse me, but pitched out of it. 294 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 1: He pitched out of some jams, but he uses a 295 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: lot of pitches to do it. That's why he was 296 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: one hundred and ten pitches in the sixth inning today. 297 00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 1: Bottom four judge ripped his third hit of the game, 298 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:50,600 Speaker 1: RBI double into the leftfield corner. I'm glad the Rangers 299 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 1: are pitching to him a little bit, but they might 300 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 1: not pitch to him today and they are in Game 301 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 1: two based on what he did in Game one. Wells 302 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 1: followed up with another two run rope back up the 303 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 1: middle to make it six nothing at that point. It 304 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 1: was kind of a blowout, dominating fifth inning for Rodin. 305 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 1: He was still up to ninety six pitches at that point, 306 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: so you knew he wasn't gonna be out there very much. 307 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 1: I was worried the bullpen was gonna get a little 308 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 1: bit spent, but Ron Menaccio stepped up and did a 309 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 1: nice job. Bottom fifth Yankees tacked on RBI single from 310 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 1: Juan Soto. Let's talk about Juan Soto. We haven't really 311 00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: talked about his potential contract in a while. Where do 312 00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 1: you stand on Sodo right now? Like, how much do 313 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 1: you think he's getting based on the year he's having, 314 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 1: because he might put up a nine war season at 315 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 1: age twenty five. 316 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 2: He's getting at least fifty million a year. I think 317 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 2: probably more. I think this is where it gets really 318 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 2: scary for a Yankee fan. If he leaves, I can 319 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 2: accept it unless he goes to the Mets. If he 320 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 2: goes to the Mets, that'll be and that has nothing 321 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 2: to do with us, Like they're not in our division, 322 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 2: they're not even in the same league as us. But 323 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 2: just the optic of that would just be a really 324 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 2: tough pill to swallow. And why are the Mets serious threats? 325 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:57,720 Speaker 2: And I think the Mets are the biggest threat to 326 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,480 Speaker 2: take him. It's in the same market, have to move. 327 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 2: I think he likes New York. Steve Coinn's got all 328 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:05,960 Speaker 2: the money in the world. He doesn't care. They have 329 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 2: the Verlander and Surez their contracts coming off their books, 330 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 2: so that's a lot of money clearing off their payroll. 331 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 2: And he's literally the perfect guy for them to sign 332 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 2: right now. He's a perfect fit. They got a lot 333 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 2: of young minor leaguers coming up. He's a good guy 334 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 2: to build their team around. And I do think Steve 335 00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 2: Cohen is gonna go absolutely berserk, and he has Scott 336 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 2: Bors as his agent, so he's probably gonna end up 337 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 2: taking the most money. Now, I do think that there's 338 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 2: a level the Yankees go no and they back out 339 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,320 Speaker 2: of it, where let's just say, let's just say Steve 340 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 2: Cohn goes absolutely berserk and offers him a fifteen year 341 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 2: contract with an average annual value of seventy million dollars, 342 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 2: which would just be absolutely absurd. The Yankees are not 343 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 2: doing that. But if the Yankees, let's say the Mets 344 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 2: go like, oh, we'll go to fifty five, and the 345 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 2: Yankees are like, we're not going higher than fifty two. 346 00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 2: Go up to fifty five? Is what is my point? 347 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, but then you know Mets are just 348 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 1: gonna go, well, we'll give you fifty six and a half. 349 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 1: That's the thing that scares me about Cohen. He's gonna 350 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 1: outdid everybody. So to get one Soto back, I think 351 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to convince him to take less, and 352 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 1: that doesn't seem likely. I mean, I've heard that he 353 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 1: was a Mets fan growing up and Cohen like he 354 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 1: overpaid for Schurzer. For Verlander, I mean, he's not afraid 355 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 1: to pell to pay well above market values. So I 356 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 1: can honestly see him getting sixty five seventy million, and 357 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 1: so I honestly do believe that this is SODA's only 358 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 1: year with the Yankees. So we'll see. Rodin was done 359 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: after five and two thirds. We talked about him final 360 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 1: line three hits, no runs, five walks, six strikeouts. The 361 00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: five walks not ideal, but I cannot complain about five 362 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 1: and two thirds. Shutout innings. ERA for the season down 363 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 1: to four point one eight. He is now thirteen and 364 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 1: seven on the season. Anyway you slice it, He's been 365 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: miles better than twenty twenty three. I would categorize this 366 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 1: season as streaky. He's to me the baseball or the 367 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 1: pitching version of John Carlos Stanton, just hot and cold. 368 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: We had a nice performance by Maranaccio to save the 369 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 1: bullpen a little bit, a couple of nice plays on 370 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:07,639 Speaker 1: defense from Ben Rice, and then Jassism with the cherry 371 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:16,400 Speaker 1: on the ice cream Sunday. I love his home run 372 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:16,880 Speaker 1: follow up. 373 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:20,400 Speaker 2: Grow yeah, yeah, he's got some squat. 374 00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 1: Man nineteenth home run of the season, second hit of 375 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,800 Speaker 1: the game ties his career high, and just like that, 376 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:41,639 Speaker 1: the Yankees win game one of the doubleheaders. I assume, yeah, 377 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 1: they had a new guy on today, right, oh Cardon, Yeah, 378 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:50,720 Speaker 1: people are talking about but actually, Derek, I'd like to 379 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 1: respond to a comment real quick. 380 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,159 Speaker 2: I got Yankee basher at twenty one asking Terrence, do 381 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:56,440 Speaker 2: you get key for wearing Yankee gear in l A. 382 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:58,159 Speaker 2: I went to LA with my Yankee gear. Thought I 383 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 2: was gonna get jumped by the way they was mean 384 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:04,399 Speaker 2: mugging me. Hasta job Dodger faithful fans, lameo. I actually 385 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:06,119 Speaker 2: did go to a Dodger game. I went to the 386 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 2: Dodger game against the Marlins when Jazz was still there, 387 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:10,720 Speaker 2: and there's a meme about it because the guy was 388 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:13,480 Speaker 2: saying Yamamoto throwing a no hitter at this point, and 389 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,200 Speaker 2: Jazz took him deep for the first pitch of the game. 390 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 2: I was at that game. It was hilarious, but no, 391 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 2: I literally wore my hat. I was like, I'm not 392 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 2: afraid of that, are you kidding? I'm going in the 393 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 2: achey hat. And I didn't really get much anyways, And 394 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 2: if anybody said anything, I'd be wearing it proudly. Anyways, 395 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 2: I don't care. 396 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 1: So I feel like Dodger fans don't. They're not like 397 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,439 Speaker 1: scary people. They're just live in LA and they're not 398 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 1: like they're not the kind of hardcore fans because they 399 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 1: have I mean, sure they're big time fans, but they 400 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 1: also have you know, the Lakers and stuff, like they 401 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:41,120 Speaker 1: have a lot of. 402 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 2: Sports, older Laker fans than Dodger. 403 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly right. Yeah, so all right, let's hand out 404 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:48,240 Speaker 1: the belt. Who are we going with? 405 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 2: This was a tough one, But can I give the 406 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 2: honorable mention? Before I give the belt out? 407 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 1: Let's go ahead and give the honorable mention? 408 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,360 Speaker 2: Okay, So we went with Carlos Rodonna's the honorable mention 409 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:02,159 Speaker 2: and we are giving the out to mister Austin Wills. 410 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:10,640 Speaker 1: The mustachiold one. That mustache is legit these days. Man, 411 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:14,880 Speaker 1: it's starting to grow down the face. Got the uh yeah, 412 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,439 Speaker 1: yeah yeah, Clue Haywood, a little bit of Thurman Munson 413 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 1: in there. But Austin Wells picks up the belt. The 414 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: Yankees take Game one, and we've got Game two beginning 415 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 1: here in just a few minutes. So I'm gonna go 416 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 1: ahead and move along real quick to our final thoughts 417 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: and we can wrap things up and get this show 418 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 1: on the road so we can all watch Game two. 419 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:41,959 Speaker 1: So T K Orioles and Yankees are battling for first place. 420 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 1: How are you feeling about the state of the division? Man? 421 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 1: You think we can take this thing down? 422 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 2: I don't know. You know that Meme and SpongeBob where 423 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 2: he's like, now let him have it. He's like, you 424 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:52,919 Speaker 2: can have it with the ice cream. That's literally what 425 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:55,399 Speaker 2: they're doing. Man. They both are just like losing games 426 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,439 Speaker 2: that you cannot lose. Two out of three of the 427 00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 2: Angels that was just agregious. And this team keeps going 428 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 2: back and forth back and forth since uh since basically 429 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,119 Speaker 2: the skid that they were on, and hopefully they can 430 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:07,879 Speaker 2: keep it going. But you just got to hope that 431 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 2: the Orioles are also not playing well. Well, we're not 432 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,640 Speaker 2: playing well. But now they got Holiday back up went 433 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 2: yard three times in a row. He may have started 434 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 2: to found something. So they're gonna be scary. Man. It's 435 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 2: I I really really think we have a series with them. 436 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 2: I think it's in the Bronx.
