We did a postgame show last 49 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: night on the Blue Jays losing again to the Mariners. 50 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 1: Miners looking great heading back to Seattle. So we did 51 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 1: nice thirty minutes on that. We're going to talk more 52 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 1: about that series coming up, but we are going to 53 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 1: start with the NLCS. Let's charge the man presented by 54 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: lids charge whoa what happened in Game one A lot? 55 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:01,799 Speaker 1: But I think we should start Blake snow You faced 56 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: Blake's now right. 57 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 4: Never liked facing him. He's eight innings, ten ks. 58 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: Some people didn't want to see him out. 59 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:11,639 Speaker 2: Of the game. 60 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 4: Yeah no, And you know what, I think back to 61 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 4: that time where they took him out when he was 62 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 4: with the Rais, when they took him out, I forget 63 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 4: what ending, fifth, sixth inning, whatever it was, and he 64 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 4: was cruising, man, and you let this guy eat. I 65 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 4: think he had one hundred and thirteen pitches. He was 66 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 4: dominant this whole time. And he's a guy that now 67 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 4: all of a sudden review the Dodgers you can lean on, 68 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 4: and that is huge. There's been a lot of moving 69 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 4: parts with this Dodger team. You know, seems like they 70 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 4: have a new closer now in Suzaki. It seems like 71 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 4: they're clicking on all cylinders. There's a mistake on the field. 72 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 4: They had bases loaded, and we'll get into that, and 73 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 4: they didn't score a run and now all of a 74 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 4: sudden they win a two to one ball game. I mean, 75 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 4: it was absolutely amazing performance by him. He's like a 76 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 4: fine wine. I'm telling you right now, you just want 77 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 4: to sip on for forty years to come. 78 00:03:59,200 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. 79 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 4: It just one of those moments where you look at 80 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 4: a veteran pitcher now a veteran guy they call him, 81 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 4: and he goes out there and crushes makes us veteran 82 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 4: ex players feel pretty good. 83 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. 84 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: I mean, he's efficient, He's much more efficient now and 85 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: he knows he's got the stuff to pull this off. 86 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: By the way, just for the history context, and I 87 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: know most of you know about this, but twenty twenty 88 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,720 Speaker 1: five and a third scoreless dominant innings in Game six 89 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,679 Speaker 1: of the World Series, Kevin Cash to the mound doesn't 90 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 1: want him to see Mookie Betts again. Is now current teammate, 91 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: and the rest is history in the Dodgers favor. This 92 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,919 Speaker 1: time they have him on their side, crats And still, 93 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: despite all of that, Milwaukee could have. 94 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 2: Won this game. 95 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: Bryce to red take one for the team. If that 96 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,359 Speaker 1: pitch is coming at you, what do you do me? 97 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:53,360 Speaker 3: I'm not hitting forth, I'm not the team's not relying 98 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 3: on me to swing the bat and drive those runs in. 99 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:58,720 Speaker 3: That John's hit me right in the back knee and 100 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 3: I'm limping all the way to first base as soon 101 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 3: as I got two strikes on me. Anything close, I 102 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 3: am one. If it's anything close away from me, I'm swinging. 103 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 3: Is anything close to me that John's hitting me, I'm 104 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 3: taking it. But look, it's got to be a reaction 105 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 3: in the moment, like you can't you can't fault him. 106 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,479 Speaker 3: And it only would have tied the game, It wouldn't 107 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:21,159 Speaker 3: have it wouldn't have won them the game. 108 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 4: I still I want to go back to that point 109 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 4: that Jimmy Rollins right right done posted Jimmy Rowins post 110 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:29,599 Speaker 4: game was about Bryce ter Ran getting out of the 111 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 4: way of the ball. 112 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 2: Could have been a potential tying game. 113 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 4: The end quotes, I played with a guy that definitely 114 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 4: would have for sure let that hit him. End quotes 115 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 4: from Jimmy Rollins. I mean, listen, it is I think 116 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 4: you're spot on cratzy. It's an instinctual reaction. It was 117 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 4: a breaking pitch that went down and then you're first 118 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 4: looking out over the plate and you get your foot down. 119 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 4: Next thing you know it's coming at you. Your first 120 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 4: instinct is to get out of the way. There's then 121 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 4: there is there's a couple guys. I mean, Brandon Geyer. 122 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:00,159 Speaker 4: It was one guy that I could think of that 123 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 4: would just not move. But again, this isn't a fastball. 124 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:07,559 Speaker 4: This isn't a fastball, Scott. This is it's a breaking pitch. 125 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,559 Speaker 4: So your eyes are going to tell you a different story. 126 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 2: When you see it. 127 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 4: It looks like it maybe it looked like a heater 128 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 4: to him when it came at him, You're like, oh, 129 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 4: let me get out of the way. It's an instinctual reaction. 130 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 4: And you know you can't blame him. Would if you're 131 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 4: a Brewers player or teammate. Honestly, you wanted to hit him, 132 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 4: But at the same token, you know it's a reaction. 133 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 4: You can't blame the guy for getting out of the way. 134 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 4: You wish he didn't, though, do. 135 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,480 Speaker 1: You remember Martin Maldonado did this where he would basically 136 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 1: stand on home plate and take a happy Gilmore hit 137 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 1: see the body. He did it in the postseason. He's like, yeah, 138 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 1: I can't hit any more. I'm in the nine spot, 139 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,159 Speaker 1: so if this thing hits me, then great. So do 140 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 1: you think Bryce Terrang feels bad or this is just 141 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,919 Speaker 1: what a major league player does instinct wise, you're not 142 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 1: thinking you're up at the plate, biggest moment of your career. 143 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 3: If you come. 144 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: Through, What do I do if the pitch is about 145 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:00,479 Speaker 1: hit me? 146 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 2: Yeah? 147 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 4: No, I I if they're thinking about that right now 148 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 4: because they lost the game. Because of that, they got 149 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 4: they got bigger problems, so no chance. I think he 150 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 4: woke up fine this morning, probably upset they didn't get 151 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 4: the job done. He didn't get the job done. But 152 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 4: other than that move on. 153 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 3: I think I think he thought about it right afterwards. 154 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 3: You saw he saw the pitch him get out of 155 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 3: the way of it, which, by the way, he only 156 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 3: has two hip by pitches this year, so he's not 157 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 3: a dude that hangs in there and is like okay, 158 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 3: like some guys just never moved. But he saw him. 159 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 3: He was like and he kind of like as he 160 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 3: stepped out, he's like, oh yeah, okay, and maybe it affected. 161 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 3: He's like, hey, I gotta get this job done. I 162 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 3: am not letting this ball get by me because he 163 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 3: swung at one that was well out of the zone. 164 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: This is for everyone listening right now. What are you 165 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 1: wearing right now?

The weakness of the 183 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,679 Speaker 1: Dodgers is their bullpen. 184 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 3: Right absolutely why. That's why Dave Roberts was thinking, it's 185 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,679 Speaker 3: fifty to fifty. I'm sending Blake Snell out with one 186 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 3: hundred and three pitches. I'll be honest. I don't know 187 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,319 Speaker 3: why he didn't. I know Dave Roberts said, hey, you 188 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 3: know Rokie's been good. Uh, you know, we do need 189 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 3: him to come back in five days like he's gonna 190 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 3: be on regular rest. Blake Snell. I've said this for years. 191 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 3: Look at the numbers for Blake Snell. The third time 192 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 3: through means nothing to him. He actually was getting better 193 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 3: in his career. He gets better, and that's because he 194 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 3: has confidence to be able to throw all of his 195 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,680 Speaker 3: pitches for strikes. For him to have no walks last 196 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 3: night shows me that I would have continued to go 197 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 3: at him. I know if it was one it was 198 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:49,959 Speaker 3: one nothing game. No, I don't put him back out 199 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 3: there because I think Roki has better stuff to nothing. Sorry, 200 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 3: they haven't put any good at bats together. The only 201 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 3: balls they put in play were like two strikeouts. You're like, 202 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:00,840 Speaker 3: all right, at least I got I didn't strike out 203 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 3: like that was a that was a plus. When guys 204 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 3: would weekly put it in play, it's like, well, at 205 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:07,680 Speaker 3: least it's not punch out. Yeah. 206 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 1: Often it would come early in an ab which is 207 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 1: why he got to the ninth inning with what was 208 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: the final pitch con for him, one O three. 209 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 2: No, I was off by ten. 210 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:21,719 Speaker 1: One O three. So that's my thing is if you're 211 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 1: managing the Dodgers, as long as Blake says he feels okay, 212 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 1: which I'm sure he did, let him go keep eating, right, 213 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 1: this is the time where you build up to this 214 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 1: to this point, and he signed with you for years, 215 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 1: like there's nothing to worry about here, go eat. 216 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 4: By the way, I was on a plane flying home 217 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,200 Speaker 4: when that was going. I felt like it was one 218 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 4: in the morning from Vegas back home. So sorry about 219 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 4: the one O three is the one thirteenth, and let 220 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 4: me let him eat. Man, let him go out. 221 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: A lot of people think one O three is one 222 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 1: thirteen in Vegas. 223 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 4: Let him go out and give him another out if 224 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 4: he doesn't get the first guy out. Then we start 225 00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 4: talking a little bit, you know, but it's out of 226 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 4: the order. 227 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 2: Yeah. True. 228 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 3: And and if you do that, you keep Jake Bowers 229 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 3: on the bench. Jake Bowers has hit some big postseason 230 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 3: clutch hits. Homer last year. Now this year he had 231 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,680 Speaker 3: a double. Like, you keep that same lineup in. They're 232 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 3: not pinch hitting anybody that wasn't already in the lineup. 233 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 3: They have their lineup out there. And like Todd said, 234 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 3: one guy gets on. Okay, appreciate your night. Now we 235 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 3: still got Rokie Cratty. 236 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 4: Let me ask you this. That double he hit the 237 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 4: center field right in the last ny. 238 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 3: Do you remember m yeah, over over. 239 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 4: What Why weren't they playing no doubles there? Like, why 240 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 4: wasn't he further back? 241 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 3: Zero idea? 242 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:44,960 Speaker 4: All right, That's why I thought I wanted to make 243 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 4: sure I wasn't losing it. I was watching on the 244 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 4: plane and I'm watching it was going kind of buffering 245 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 4: in and out, and I see the ball drop and 246 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 4: I'm like, oh my god. I mean, if you're playing 247 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 4: no doubles, it's a running catch going into the wall 248 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:57,439 Speaker 4: in my opinion, right. 249 00:11:57,920 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 3: I mean not even going I think he stops before 250 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 3: because I think it landed at the edge of the 251 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 3: warning track. I'd have to go see it again because 252 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 3: it bounced over like that's the matter. 253 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 2: Huge. 254 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 3: It seemed weird to me. It seemed weird to me 255 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 3: because it was like they were playing him shallow pool 256 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 3: and in that case, you already have a run around first. 257 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 3: That run means nothing. Keep everything in front. I don't 258 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 3: care if that go first to home on a single 259 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 3: to center because you're so deep. Let him score like 260 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 3: you keep him at first base. 261 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean Mookie Betts to the rescue is another 262 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 1: RBI walk that gives them the insurance run. We're talking 263 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 1: about things that went wrong. Oh, we should have let 264 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:42,559 Speaker 1: Snell pitch another inning, bullpen showed a crack pahes should 265 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 1: have been playing further back, and yet they won the game. Wait, 266 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 1: there's one other issue too, the craziest double play in 267 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 1: postseason history. 268 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 4: I didn't see it live, so I'm like so upset 269 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,680 Speaker 4: about I just remember getting some links on my phone, 270 00:12:58,120 --> 00:12:59,599 Speaker 4: you know, going in and out of service, and I 271 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 4: couldn't there. But oh my god, I have never seen 272 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,320 Speaker 4: somebody not score from dead center field against the wall, 273 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 4: bounce off the wall to catch and the runner at 274 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 4: third didn't score? Are you kidding me? 275 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 1: Oh? 276 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 2: My god? And who was a ta oscar at third base? 277 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 4: Listen at the end of the day, great player, he's 278 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,960 Speaker 4: jogged out a couple of balls that we've seen. He's 279 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 4: jogged to a couple of balls in the outfield like 280 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 4: these got it? In these type of games, you gotta 281 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 4: be better. I mean, that could have been huge a 282 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 4: double play. 283 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:29,959 Speaker 2: What was it? 284 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 4: An eight six two one assisted Cratzy as you said 285 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 4: earlier in our meetings today, eight six two one assisted. 286 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 4: I don't think that's probably ever happened in baseball. I 287 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 4: would love to call alias up and see, but to 288 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 4: not score from that, and you're a fast runner like 289 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 4: I could see CRATSI er eye not making it there. 290 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:50,199 Speaker 2: But you gotta know the rules, Scott. 291 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 4: Once it hits the glove and you already go tag 292 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 4: up and go even if he catches it. 293 00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 2: By the way, I I feel like he was cooking. 294 00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 1: Home average ish. But it doesn't matter. I mean, doesn't 295 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: any big leaguer get home he was. 296 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 2: He was cooking home. He looked like he was going 297 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:06,960 Speaker 2: one hundred miles an hour. 298 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:10,960 Speaker 3: He was running for his life. That's for sure. 299 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,080 Speaker 2: And you know what the funny thing about the whole 300 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:17,680 Speaker 2: thing was, who was the on duck batter? 301 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 4: Oh my god, after monthsy k, he's kei K. He's 302 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 4: yelling to the dugout it's a home run. It's a 303 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 4: home run. 304 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 2: He saying the review. 305 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 4: He had no clue either, So everybody was it was 306 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 4: just a pile of craziness. 307 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 3: There's so there's so much to unpack with this play. 308 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 3: Also the fact that if they had gone back and 309 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 3: reviewed it, Max Munsey could have been called out for 310 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 3: passing the runner at first, because if you watched the 311 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 3: end of the play, Max has gone around first, and 312 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,160 Speaker 3: then as I'm not sure who was coming back to first, 313 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 3: maybe Freddy because Will Smith went back to second. I 314 00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 3: doubt it was Freddy, but whoever it was was coming 315 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 3: back to first, and Max was still in fair territory. 316 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 3: So as soon as Freddy hits first as a live runner, yeah, 317 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 3: Batter's out for passing passing the runner in front. So 318 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 3: technically there could have been a third out that would 319 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 3: have negated everything. But there's like nobody will ever get 320 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 3: thrown out from from center field, tagging up like that's 321 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 3: just an auto easy tag up. You joked about it 322 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 3: like I today wouldn't get thrown out if they started 323 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 3: with the ball at the same spot as south Freelick 324 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 3: and he throws it. As soon as he throws it, 325 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 3: I start running safe. There's no way. But because ta 326 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 3: Oscar went two steps off after he saw the juggle 327 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 3: and he thought he needed to go back, his momentum stopped, 328 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 3: went back to the bag, stopped again. And the biggest 329 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,720 Speaker 3: thing for me credit to William Contreras. As much as 330 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 3: like some people could be like, oh, William's kind of 331 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 3: out there for himself, he's kind of flashy, emotional. He 332 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 3: knew this play was a force out. If he goes 333 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 3: to tag him at home safe, most guys are like 334 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 3: even KEK, KEYK thought no, no, no, no, you got 335 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 3: checked that, you got checked that it wasn't a catch. 336 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 3: You're right, Keyk. It wasn't a catch. That ball was 337 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 3: That ball's a force out at home And so good 338 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 3: for William Contraras to stretch like it's a force out. 339 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, And I want to make a big explanation about defense. 340 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 4: First off, this isn't a play you work on in 341 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 4: the offseason. You work on double cuts, you work on 342 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 4: throwing a basis that guys are leading towards. You think 343 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:43,360 Speaker 4: about Freelick, first off, he gets the ball quickly, doesn't hesitate. 344 00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 4: If there's a slight hesitation, better safe, throws it in 345 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 4: firm throw. Perfect throw as a shortstop, Ortiz as a shortstop. 346 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 4: Once you see that happen, you're you're moving, You're looking. 347 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 4: Let me see where the runners are because that ball 348 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 4: is already in motion. Once you see the ball in motion, 349 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 4: knowing all right, that ball gonna come to me, give 350 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 4: a quick peek boom, catch throw. It's everything that happened 351 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 4: there and and not and the force out at home. 352 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 4: You got to give the defense credit there. I mean, 353 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:13,159 Speaker 4: that was absolutely phenomenal play. It worked out in their favor. 354 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 4: They still lost the game, but imagine they ended up winning, 355 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 4: losing three to two there and. 356 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 2: They came back. 357 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:22,120 Speaker 4: You know, it's just the game within the game, Cratzy, 358 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:25,919 Speaker 4: and you can follow up on this, but every moment 359 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:30,440 Speaker 4: of that play was meticulous and was perfection be an athlete. 360 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 4: That's what I tell my kids. 361 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:34,720 Speaker 3: And what you said about like a lot of kids, 362 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 3: is the kids listening to this. What Todd was saying 363 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 3: is perfect when you're the cutoff man or girl. It's 364 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,400 Speaker 3: so you don't have to just stand there like, throw 365 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 3: me the ball, throw it to me. Here we go. Yes, 366 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,160 Speaker 3: you have to get your feet in the right position, 367 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 3: but you can look away from the play to see 368 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 3: where the runner is and then catch the ball to 369 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 3: throw it like. There's so many aspects of it that 370 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,639 Speaker 3: or Joey Ortiz did an incredible job and made a 371 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 3: pinpoint throw. He didn't try to bounce it. He made 372 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 3: the throw all the way in the air. It was 373 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,679 Speaker 3: it was just an It was an awesome play. And 374 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:13,400 Speaker 3: I'm seeing too many of these things happen to the Dodgers, 375 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 3: which also shows me how freaking talented they are, because 376 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:20,119 Speaker 3: they're coughing some things up. They're not doing some great things. 377 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:23,679 Speaker 3: There's some questionable, you know, questionable manager moves. They have 378 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 3: holes in their team, and yet they're up one to 379 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 3: zero and yet another National League Championship Series. 380 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 4: There's no way Joey Ortiz did not look to see 381 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 4: where the runners are, because if you're a shortstop, you're 382 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:39,399 Speaker 4: coming up when you catch that ball, you're assuming the 383 00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:41,920 Speaker 4: run around third scored already. If you're not assuming that, 384 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:45,120 Speaker 4: you are some sort of spectacular ball player. He did 385 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:48,240 Speaker 4: not assume he had to have taken a peek back 386 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 4: just to make sure and see where the runners were. 387 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 4: He caught it on a nose and through it. You 388 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 4: can't say enough about the defensive play. What is going 389 00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,479 Speaker 4: to make you get to the championship in the World Series? 390 00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 4: Plays like that? 391 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:01,640 Speaker 3: Yeah? 392 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 1: How come Tao didn't listen to his third base coach? 393 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:07,960 Speaker 2: Do you know hard to hear for one? 394 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 3: Okay, no, that's not the third base coaches called it all. 395 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 1: No, I mean no, but he's telling them like if 396 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 1: you're confused and you're looking at him. Dino also knew 397 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 1: what he was doing. He's like, go, what are you doing? 398 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 4: Well, yeah, but you if you're I'll try and dumbste like, 399 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 4: you have to know what to do in that situation. 400 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 4: You can't rely on somebody's voice, you know what I mean? 401 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,920 Speaker 4: Even if there's it's like him and I had him 402 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 4: coaching a high school game. 403 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's gonna hear dog get back run. Yeah, you're 404 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 2: gonna hear that. 405 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,239 Speaker 4: But your mind is telling you one thing and your 406 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 4: mind's listening to another. Like it's you're you're racing. It's 407 00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:48,200 Speaker 4: it's hard but you should know what you're doing. 408 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, just from the fan perspective, I'm like, did he 409 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 1: get instructed differently? Like what happened? 410 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:53,440 Speaker 2: Why? 411 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:56,639 Speaker 1: Why is it so confusing? Like regardless of what the 412 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:58,920 Speaker 1: result of the play is either way, Like if you're 413 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,040 Speaker 1: not knowing, just on the damn bag and then. 414 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 2: Run home not understand? 415 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 4: Yeah what just trying to get his wheels were his 416 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 4: legs were moving and his brains were telling him something else, 417 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 4: you know what I mean, we. 418 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,399 Speaker 3: Saw it last serious, That's how the Dodgers won. Oryan 419 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 3: Kirkeran knows that ball doesn't go home there, he knows 420 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:16,879 Speaker 3: he needs to throw it the first he had a 421 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 3: brain fart. I hope Tao knows that he doesn't need 422 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:26,120 Speaker 3: to retag up after a bobbled ball. But sometimes your 423 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:31,920 Speaker 3: brain's like, oh wait what And just that little got 424 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 3: the out at the plate. 425 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 1: Right, the moment caught him. So after all of that, right, 426 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 1: the Dodgers still won the game two to one. Oh 427 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 1: and shoe O Tani is not out of his slump now. 428 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 1: He had some Yeah, I mean he had a key 429 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:48,639 Speaker 1: intentional walk right. His presence alone is big, and I 430 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:52,679 Speaker 1: do think that his first a b crats set a tempo, 431 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 1: he worked a nice walk, nice plate appearance there, so 432 00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 1: the Phillies had dominant left hand pitch to handle him. 433 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 1: Same thing with Freddie Freeman. I think sixteen out of 434 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 1: the twenty a b's for Freeman in the last round. 435 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 1: We're against left handed pitching, and oh, look at Freddy 436 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 1: coming through with a home run that's still in the 437 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:16,360 Speaker 1: air hang time wise against the right handed pitchers. So, man, 438 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 1: this team looks really good despite what we're talking about. 439 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 1: Right Like, things did not go their way and they 440 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 1: still want a two to one game. 441 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 4: It seems like every team Cratty's played four in the 442 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 4: playoffs and now is not finding the way to win 443 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 4: games anymore. 444 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:33,440 Speaker 2: They don't want any teams in the chest Yankees Brewers. 445 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 3: I'm gonna have I'm gonna have one in the I'm 446 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 3: gonna have one in the Championship. So that's it. We 447 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 3: have one in the World Series. Who Mariners? 448 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 2: Oh you played for the Mariners. I mean, I know, 449 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 2: I didn't know. I didn't know. I don't know. 450 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 1: He's been in their org. 451 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 3: Fred's and Freddy. I know, we got to go Freddy's 452 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 3: home run first RBI. So they've gotten through these two 453 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 3: series with already having one RBI and show hey being 454 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 3: non existent. 455 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:06,360 Speaker 2: That's that's really good for them. 456 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a problem for a good world exactly. Hey, 457 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:13,400 Speaker 1: Andy mcalin talked about this. Adamccalvey, who covers The Brewis, 458 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:16,360 Speaker 1: talks about this all the time too. Pat Murphy declines 459 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:20,399 Speaker 1: to shake player hands during pregame introductions in the playoffs, 460 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 1: so now some of the players smack him in the chest. 461 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:28,359 Speaker 1: I saw others that just ignore him. He is a hoot, 462 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:31,200 Speaker 1: He's hilarious. 463 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 4: I'm like going off and something different. I've always thought 464 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 4: like after like the series, they should all shake hands, 465 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:39,640 Speaker 4: like afterwards, like hockey. 466 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think, yeah, what after the series or after 467 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:46,440 Speaker 3: each game? 468 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:50,439 Speaker 4: No, not after not after each game, but after the series, 469 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 4: after the series.

He seems like a happy, gold lucky 477 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 4: deal with everything he does.

But now, this is 484 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 3: one of the things that I thought when Pat got 485 00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 3: the job, was he going to have to change as 486 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 3: a manager. This is the kind of little stuff he's 487 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 3: been doing. The Pocket bagels before the Pocket pancakes, way 488 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:40,520 Speaker 3: before the Apple TV game ever made it popular. 489 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:47,120 Speaker 1: KP.

Hey, we've got Fabia and Ardaya 508 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 1: joining us right now, covering the Dodgers here during their 509 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,680 Speaker 1: quest for back to back World Series titles, and they 510 00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 1: take down the Brewers in Game one of the NLCS, 511 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:55,000 Speaker 1: So let's spen at forward to game two. Faby On, 512 00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 1: thanks for joining us, and how do you think the 513 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 1: Dodgers line up for this game too? Do you like 514 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:04,120 Speaker 1: the way that Dave Roberts and the front office lined 515 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 1: up the rotation for this series or are you on 516 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 1: the side with some Dodger fans that feel as if 517 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,639 Speaker 1: Ya Momoto has had trouble against the Brewers and they 518 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:14,119 Speaker 1: should have gone in a different direction. 519 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:15,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 520 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 5: I think ultimately he came down to who you wanted 521 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 5: to have start twice this series between Ylmoto and Otani 522 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 5: and what that kind of allows everyone else to do. Otani, 523 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 5: I think they would have been able to do twice 524 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 5: in a series, but that probably would have required him 525 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 5: pitching games two in game seven. Yal motor, you can 526 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:33,119 Speaker 5: get away with games two in game six, so I 527 00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:35,680 Speaker 5: think honestly became a math problem at that point. I 528 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:37,920 Speaker 5: think Yo Motor makes a lot of sense, and obviously 529 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:40,640 Speaker 5: it had to blow up Start Milwaukee this year, but 530 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:43,639 Speaker 5: has earned the right to sort of be in the 531 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 5: sort of spot with how he pitched this season overall, 532 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 5: and I don't think you can really go wrong when 533 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:50,280 Speaker 5: he comes to those four guys. 534 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 3: Do you think part of the show Hey thing was 535 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 3: him being a visitor and how that changes his warm 536 00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 3: up routine? You know, and obviously the pitcher has to 537 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:05,800 Speaker 3: be in in time before the other before your team's hitting, 538 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 3: but Shohey needs to be in in extra time. Do 539 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:12,360 Speaker 3: you think part of that went into it? Because Doc said, no, 540 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:15,679 Speaker 3: it has nothing to do with his hitting, which a 541 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,400 Speaker 3: little I'm a little hesitant to believe that. 542 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,360 Speaker 5: I would argue, honestly, that impacts him more when they're 543 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,879 Speaker 5: at home than on the road, just because he throws 544 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 5: that first in. He doesn't get a chance to go 545 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,400 Speaker 5: into the dugout, catch his breath or anything at all. 546 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:30,440 Speaker 5: He sort of has to immediately get ready to go hit, 547 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,080 Speaker 5: at least when he's hitting and the next half inning 548 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:34,640 Speaker 5: needs to go pitch. They do give him a little 549 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 5: bit more time on the pitch clock. He has a 550 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,119 Speaker 5: chance to catch his breath a little bit more. And 551 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:43,159 Speaker 5: you sort of see that at home especially, but you 552 00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:45,360 Speaker 5: see that's in both cases at home. On the road, 553 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 5: he'll try to end the a bat a little bit 554 00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 5: sooner offensively when he's pitching, but especially at home when 555 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 5: he's sort of you tell there's some fatigue coming off 556 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,919 Speaker 5: the mound and immediately going in stepping in the batter's box. 557 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 4: I want to talk a little bit about pitching a 558 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 4: little bit. So Zaki came in again. It seems like 559 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,359 Speaker 4: it's a face to love. I mean, this guy, all 560 00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:08,440 Speaker 4: of a sudden, it's like the new clubs. He struggled 561 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 4: a little bit yesterday, had to get taken out. 562 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 2: What do you what do you think of him? Like? 563 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:17,399 Speaker 4: Is this is this like the their guy moving on forward? 564 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:19,360 Speaker 4: It seems like this is their closer for the whole 565 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:20,240 Speaker 4: rest of the playoffs. 566 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:23,439 Speaker 5: I mean, he's clearly the guy they trust, and they 567 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,919 Speaker 5: don't have a lot of those guys right now. But 568 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,200 Speaker 5: obviously there's still a lot new with this. They're still 569 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 5: trying to figure out how he's gonna just all this. 570 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 5: And he saw that last night, like he had those 571 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 5: three innings in the NLDS Game four against the Phillies. 572 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,439 Speaker 5: Obviously he had three days of rest between, but clearly 573 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 5: there was some sort of carryover. In fact, the velocity 574 00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 5: was down, the command was off, and clearly there was 575 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 5: it looked like some signs of fatigue. Will Smith even 576 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 5: said he looked a little tired out there. Uh, this 577 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 5: is all still so new. They're all trying to figure 578 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 5: out how this all works. And they can't go through 579 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 5: this World Series run if they will repeat, if he's 580 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:00,640 Speaker 5: pitching in every single win, like, they have to find 581 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:04,199 Speaker 5: other ways to still get through games. He's still the 582 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:06,399 Speaker 5: guy they trust the most, but they have to have 583 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 5: other guys step up in that bullpen. 584 00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:13,159 Speaker 3: Where do you see that happening? Because Vesia has shown 585 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,480 Speaker 3: in his little in his small outing, and Blake Trynon 586 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 3: has shown they're not the guys to get it done. 587 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 3: Are we gonna see Robleski getting a save? Is Emmett. 588 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 3: She isn't gonna get a save if if Yamamoto goes 589 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:27,879 Speaker 3: eight tonight. 590 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,119 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think she's the name you sort of look to. 591 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:34,360 Speaker 5: That's the guy that they see as possibly They saw 592 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 5: him as this possible secret weapon in this October run 593 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 5: before Rookie Psaki really kind of took advantage of this 594 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 5: opportunity and really jumped and took it. But she is 595 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 5: still a guy that really high on. Obviously he's given 596 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 5: up a few runs over the course of this series, 597 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:51,480 Speaker 5: but that's a guy that they really like to bet on. 598 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 5: If there's another lefty besides Vessia that they trust, I 599 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 5: would say it's Jack Dryer actually a little bit before 600 00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 5: Justin Robleski, just because of how steady he's been all 601 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 5: season long. But yeah, I think that it's gonna be 602 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 5: either those two guys. It's got to be Alex Vesi 603 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:08,400 Speaker 5: at some point. They still do trust him and Blake 604 00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 5: trying to You saw it. Obviously, it has not been 605 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 5: a good season for him. It was a terrible September 606 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,480 Speaker 5: for him, but Dave Roberts still went him in that 607 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 5: spot last night and he came through. So I think 608 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 5: they're still gonna keep having him opportunities to kind of 609 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:23,880 Speaker 5: show that their faith in him is worth it. But yeah, 610 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:26,600 Speaker 5: it's gonna be interesting to see how they managed the 611 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 5: ninth and he's going. 612 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 3: Forward, Bobby, And do you feel like if we went 613 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 3: back a year, the Dodgers have only won that as 614 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 3: people were saying the COVID World Series, they haven't been 615 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 3: able to get it done. In the length of the series. 616 00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 3: There was a lot of like, I don't know, it's 617 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 3: a good team, but are they able to do it 618 00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 3: to now where we are they're one to zero in 619 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 3: the NLCS, like this is the best team. They're just unbelievable. 620 00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 3: Everything they do, they're so good. Do you think our 621 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:58,480 Speaker 3: view of them right now is jaded or are they 622 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 3: really this good and pretty much unstoppable. 623 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 5: I wouldn't say they're unstoppable because we talked about the bullpen, 624 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 5: like that's obviously something that's gonna come kind of be 625 00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 5: an issue throughout here. But I do think that there 626 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,960 Speaker 5: is something to what they were able to tap into 627 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 5: last October, the fact that this is a lot of 628 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 5: the same group. They understood what it takes and I 629 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:21,719 Speaker 5: think they kind of knew, especially if you get out 630 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 5: of the short series. Once these series gets stretched out, 631 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 5: it comes down to, like, who's the more talented team. 632 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 5: I think more often than not, it's gonna be the Dodgers, 633 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 5: and I think they kind of understand that they can 634 00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 5: sort of break down teams over the course of a 635 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:36,720 Speaker 5: longer series, and there's a confidence that comes with that. 636 00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 5: Like they I think they are playing with a lot 637 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 5: of confidence that came from winning the World Series last year. 638 00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 5: In the way that they did it. I think there 639 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 5: was something too in twenty one they ran out of 640 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 5: gas twenty two, twenty three, you start to hear like, oh, 641 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 5: they can't really finish it off in a full season. 642 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 2: You start to. 643 00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 5: Believe that or buying into that a little bit, and 644 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 5: that gets in your head a little bit. I think 645 00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 5: they are past that point now and there's a confidence 646 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:01,960 Speaker 5: that there's start playing with October knowing that they've done 647 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,000 Speaker 5: it before and that they know what it takes to 648 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:04,560 Speaker 5: sort of do. 649 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 2: That, knowing what they've done before. 650 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 4: Freddy Peralta has faced this Dodger team four and two 651 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 4: three point twenty nine era in his last and his 652 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 4: career starts against the Dodgers. How do you think he 653 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 4: fares tonight. I think this is a big opportunity for 654 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 4: the Brewers to come through. This is their number one guy. 655 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 4: How do you think the Dodgers step up against the 656 00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:25,600 Speaker 4: guy like Freddy Parolta. 657 00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think obviously the numbers the par Alta has 658 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:30,680 Speaker 5: against the Dodgers are pretty good. I will say that 659 00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 5: I feel like they see him pretty well. I think 660 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 5: even yesterday they only scored the two runs, they probably 661 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 5: should have scored six if that ball goes over the 662 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 5: fence with Max Muncie earlier in the game. But like 663 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:42,480 Speaker 5: they saw the Brewers pretty well, They saw all their 664 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 5: top arms pretty well. They hit the ball hard, they 665 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:47,240 Speaker 5: had traffick on the bases all but two innings of 666 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:47,720 Speaker 5: the nine. 667 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 1: UH. 668 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 5: I think the back quality has been was good yesterday 669 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:53,480 Speaker 5: and it was as a chance to be good tonight. 670 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 5: But Paroltz is obviously a tough guy. If he has UH, 671 00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:01,080 Speaker 5: if he hasn't an outnywhere he's on me very difficult 672 00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:02,880 Speaker 5: for the Dodgers. But I do think that this is 673 00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:06,280 Speaker 5: a guy that I wouldn't be surprised if the Dodgers 674 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 5: how to get out in tonight. 675 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 1: What was your take on the insane double play and 676 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 1: I know, you get to watch ta Oscar Hernandez all 677 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 1: year long. I love him as a person. He's a 678 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:21,880 Speaker 1: great interview, he's super clutch. Dodger fans love him to death, 679 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 1: but he does make these mental gafs somewhat frequently. 680 00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:29,760 Speaker 5: Would you agree, Yeah, I think that's something that even 681 00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 5: within the Dodgers has been a thing that they've kind 682 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 5: of talked about, and that's why they sat him for 683 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:37,280 Speaker 5: a couple of games in September where they just needed 684 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:38,719 Speaker 5: to kind of lock in. And I don't know if 685 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 5: even Yesterda it was necessarily a lock in situation. I 686 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 5: think he was one of those. It was such a 687 00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 5: weird play. It wasn't clear to me in the press 688 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 5: box that like he had caught it or that it 689 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 5: hit off the wall. I can only imagine for ta 690 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 5: Oscar at third base. But I will say, like the 691 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,080 Speaker 5: Dodgers ran into this sort of similar play in May 692 00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:01,400 Speaker 5: against the Mets, where I think Hayron Taylor was colliding 693 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 5: with Juan Soto. He bobbled the ball, but they knew 694 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 5: that as soon as the ball hits glove, you can 695 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 5: go that situation where Tayoscar Andaz did go tag up 696 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 5: and immediately break when Glove made contact, but clearly he 697 00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:18,840 Speaker 5: had some sort of brain fart there in that spot, 698 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:21,760 Speaker 5: goes back to try to tag up again at third base, 699 00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 5: and that hesitation really is what cost the Dodgers to run. Obviously, 700 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 5: there still would be a double player in that play 701 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 5: just because the other guys that were treated to the bases, 702 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 5: But the Dodgers definitely should have come out of that spot. 703 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:33,480 Speaker 5: But at least one run. 704 00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 1: And all that happens and they still win the game, 705 00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:41,320 Speaker 1: many thanks to Blake Snell. And everyone thinks it's unfair 706 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:44,120 Speaker 1: what the Dodgers do, but they're not the only team 707 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 1: that could have signed Blake Snell. First off, any team 708 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:51,160 Speaker 1: can sign a pitcher for what in the mid hundreds, 709 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,600 Speaker 1: what's his current deal? And I know there's a lot 710 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:55,480 Speaker 1: of deferrals in there too, but in the middle of 711 00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 1: five years, five years, one two with deferrals that I 712 00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:02,600 Speaker 1: think makes it more like in the one fifties or 713 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:05,200 Speaker 1: one sixties. First off, any team can do one fifties 714 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:09,080 Speaker 1: one sixties on a long term contract. But there are 715 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 1: other starters that were signed, and it seems like the 716 00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:13,160 Speaker 1: Dodgers made the right call on this one, even though 717 00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:15,839 Speaker 1: he did miss time during the season. He looks like 718 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,960 Speaker 1: one of the best pitchers on the planet frequently. I 719 00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 1: mean he's won two cy Young Awards and in big moments. 720 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,440 Speaker 1: Now in the postseason, he looks like someone who is 721 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 1: more efficient, not walking guys and just showing off his stuff. 722 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:31,440 Speaker 1: What are you seeing from him? And do you feel 723 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:35,400 Speaker 1: like the Dodgers will take on too much of the Oh, 724 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 1: they can just buy everyone if they end up winning 725 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 1: this series and getting to another World Series. I'll just 726 00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 1: use the example like Max Frida a great year for 727 00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 1: the Yankees, but get a clunker in that Toronto series. 728 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 1: We haven't seen that from Blake Snell. So Dodgers made 729 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:49,640 Speaker 1: the right call so far in the postseason. 730 00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:52,799 Speaker 5: Yeah, and I think it was Snell specifically, Like this 731 00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:55,440 Speaker 5: past offseason he did say he knew right away he 732 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:57,920 Speaker 5: kind of wanted to be in LA But that doesn't 733 00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 5: excuse the previous offseason when he was around and didn't 734 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:02,400 Speaker 5: signed to the spring training and he didn't sign with 735 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:04,880 Speaker 5: the Dodgers and every team could have signed him and they didn't. 736 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 5: But yeah, I think what we're seeing out of Snell 737 00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:10,439 Speaker 5: is like this is the guy that he always thought 738 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 5: he was where he has four incredible pitches that he 739 00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:16,799 Speaker 5: knows how to use, that he can locate where he 740 00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:19,719 Speaker 5: wants to. And yes, he has had a history of 741 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,319 Speaker 5: walking guys. He has had a history of nibbling, and 742 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:24,840 Speaker 5: that's part of why he's so successful, his ability to 743 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 5: kind of avoid the big swing, and he's really good 744 00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:30,879 Speaker 5: at that. He's really good at locating pitches an inch 745 00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:32,719 Speaker 5: or two off the plate and getting guys to swing 746 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 5: at them. I think what he's learned and talked about 747 00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:39,720 Speaker 5: with maturity is all the different ways, all the different 748 00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:43,320 Speaker 5: hacks he can find to do that and remain efficient. 749 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,880 Speaker 5: And I think you saw that yesterday where yeah, he 750 00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:49,440 Speaker 5: was racking up the strikeouts, but he's still I think 751 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:53,239 Speaker 5: he was at seventy seven pitches after seven, like after 752 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:57,279 Speaker 5: seven innings, actually at six innings, ninety one pitches after 753 00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:59,840 Speaker 5: seven innings, one hundred and three pitches after eight, Like 754 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:03,719 Speaker 5: his pitch count was low enough for Dave Roberts even 755 00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:05,920 Speaker 5: consider him in the ninth inn And this is a 756 00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 5: situation where this is the guy who had only pitched 757 00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:10,680 Speaker 5: into the eighth inning. This was the sixth time that 758 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:14,279 Speaker 5: he's crazed on that. But obviously he's clearly shown that 759 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:17,759 Speaker 5: development over the course of this season, knowing how to 760 00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:20,400 Speaker 5: get quick outs when he needs to, and honestly, a 761 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:22,719 Speaker 5: team like the Brewers where they make so much contact 762 00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:24,480 Speaker 5: that kind of played into his favor where he was 763 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:28,080 Speaker 5: a little deeper into a start and understand like, I 764 00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,399 Speaker 5: get soft contact if I keep throwing change ups here, 765 00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:33,640 Speaker 5: and that's basically his recipe to success last night. 766 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 1: Can I interest you in surf Shark VPN, which allows 767 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:43,760 Speaker 1: you to mask certain parts of your surfing around the web, 768 00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:45,680 Speaker 1: or let's say you're somewhere and you're like, I don't 769 00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:47,520 Speaker 1: need this app to know where I am twenty four 770 00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:49,359 Speaker 1: to seven that pops up on your phone all the time. 771 00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:51,400 Speaker 1: Surf Shark can help you out. 772 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:54,399 Speaker 3: With that privacy and protection.

I think that is influencing a lot. But 792 00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:53,120 Speaker 5: also he's trying to cling to what he can in 793 00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:56,400 Speaker 5: that bullpen in hopes that he could find enough pieces 794 00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,799 Speaker 5: to make this group come together. I think he has 795 00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:03,239 Speaker 5: the developed enough trusts that quickly in Rookie Sasaki that 796 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,399 Speaker 5: he thought Rookie Staki was the best option than ninth Inning, 797 00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:09,319 Speaker 5: which you can quibble with that yes or no. But 798 00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:12,160 Speaker 5: and you could argue that yes, you want Blake Snell 799 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:14,279 Speaker 5: to go batter to better at that point, but then 800 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:17,120 Speaker 5: that might take Rookie Saki off the table because they've 801 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:19,480 Speaker 5: been really cautious. They want him to only come into 802 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 5: clean innings, or at least he's only done that so far, 803 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:24,480 Speaker 5: so all of a sudden that you're changing your options 804 00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:26,680 Speaker 5: in case Snell doesn't have it, the ninth inning change 805 00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:29,400 Speaker 5: a little bit. So I think having a lack of 806 00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:34,759 Speaker 5: reliable alternatives has kind of forced him into situations that 807 00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 5: I don't know if he makes these same calls last October. 808 00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:40,720 Speaker 5: I mean he definitely doesn't if he has last year's bullpen. 809 00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:45,480 Speaker 5: So you're seeing a different strategy for how he's managed 810 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:48,399 Speaker 5: a pitching staff definitely compared to where it was last year. 811 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:52,960 Speaker 3: So Charlie Manuel used to always say, you know, anytime 812 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:56,040 Speaker 3: he get his thousands win or five hundred winning, well, 813 00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:59,840 Speaker 3: he's a it's because I got good players. Do you 814 00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:04,320 Speaker 3: feel like he has enough good players in that bullpen 815 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:07,560 Speaker 3: that he really isn't gonna make a bad choice and 816 00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:10,799 Speaker 3: yet he continues to go with the guys that got 817 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:13,520 Speaker 3: him the ring that he had before or do you 818 00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:17,320 Speaker 3: feel like he is able to view what is working 819 00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:20,240 Speaker 3: and get them out of there soon enough like last 820 00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:21,800 Speaker 3: night with Rokie. 821 00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:25,319 Speaker 5: Yeah, I do think there's like a balance there. I 822 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:27,600 Speaker 5: think one thing he talked a lot about last October 823 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:29,680 Speaker 5: going into the last October he's like he's learned that 824 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:31,480 Speaker 5: he's gonna go with the guys he trusts, and I 825 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:34,960 Speaker 5: think that became very clear last October who he trusted, 826 00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:37,799 Speaker 5: and Blake Trianon was the top of that list. I 827 00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:40,440 Speaker 5: think there's something too that where he's going to keep 828 00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:43,319 Speaker 5: trusting trying in the hottest of spots just because he 829 00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:46,879 Speaker 5: knows that whether he gets hit or not, like it's 830 00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:49,759 Speaker 5: not gonna because the moment speeds up on him. But 831 00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:52,319 Speaker 5: also I think do you think that his ability to 832 00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:55,240 Speaker 5: trust Roki Saki so quickly is kind of a testament 833 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 5: not just like the like where the bullpen is at 834 00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:00,800 Speaker 5: right now, but also his ability to kind of adapt 835 00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:03,600 Speaker 5: and just sort of see what is working and what 836 00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:07,080 Speaker 5: is not and understanding that so that if in cases 837 00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 5: or maybe like you're trying to you're trying to scramble 838 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:14,080 Speaker 5: at some certain points, especially with the three batter minimum, 839 00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:16,279 Speaker 5: where even if a guy doesn't have it, you're kind 840 00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 5: of stuck with him in that spot for at least 841 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:19,759 Speaker 5: a couple of hitters, especially if you're trying to get 842 00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:21,919 Speaker 5: someone up, and if it's someone like broke you sock 843 00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:24,080 Speaker 5: you needs a little bit more time, then all of 844 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:27,000 Speaker 5: a sudden. You have made that decision a little bit sooner, 845 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:31,359 Speaker 5: so it's definitely a balancing app for him. 846 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:34,920 Speaker 1: Hey, great insight, and we appreciate the time during busy 847 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:37,400 Speaker 1: time for you covering this series, Bobby, And thanks for 848 00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:40,439 Speaker 1: joining us so much and encouraging everyone obviously to check 849 00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 1: out your work in The Athletic and give you a 850 00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:45,839 Speaker 1: follow on Twitter if they don't already appreciate you.
