Obviously, we'll grab him live 27 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:20,199 Speaker 1: after he's done here. One other shout out before we start, 28 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 1: not on the field, but off the field, and bide 29 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: with the politicians. We might have one of the most 30 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 1: athletic politicians out there. 31 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 2: To share a mark, to share so to say vote text. 32 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 1: I mean, it's perfect if you're vote text in text. 33 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. It's perfect. He's running for Congress 34 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 2: and in Texas, which I listen. God bless you for 35 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,680 Speaker 2: doing that.

That's all I'm gonna say, because that is 37 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 2: not his job for the week for the weak minded. 38 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 2: And he played baseball, so he knows failure. He knows 39 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 2: goods and bads and ups and downs. But you know, 40 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 2: we were talking off the air that there's been some 41 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 2: guys that have done this, but not the level of 42 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 2: to share a I guess herschel Walker would be the 43 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 2: closest one. Yeah, that's a big name with the chero 44 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 2: made a lot of money. It was a multi time 45 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 2: All Star World Series. I mean the whole deal. He 46 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 2: was he was a star star. 47 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 3: About Donold? Wasn't Honold?

There's many selects. 53 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I'm talking like I'm talking about an athlete 54 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 2: that made it to the top of their game in 55 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,800 Speaker 2: one of the big sports. I mean Barty Building. Yes, people, yes, 56 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,799 Speaker 2: but I'm talking one of the big sports. To do 57 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:38,519 Speaker 2: this and to want to do this, and especially in 58 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 2: today's world, good luck techs. 59 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,079 Speaker 1: Exactly. All right, Well, we got to get to our 60 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,519 Speaker 1: reporter live on the scene, So let's charge the mound. 61 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 2: There might be some tears. 62 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: Let's send it out to our reporter in Pennsylvania reporting 63 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 1: live on the Philadelphia Phillies as they return home now 64 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: to take on the Braves set Citizens Bank Park. That's 65 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 1: the bank that they prefer. The other one that sponsors 66 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,920 Speaker 1: the home of the Mets is a house of horrors. 67 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 1: Eric Kratz, Can you recap the Phillies Mets series for us? 68 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:23,360 Speaker 3: The Mets played more gooder than the Phillies did. The Phillies, Hey, 69 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 3: at least the last game they didn't even get Phillies 70 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 3: fans a chance to like get into the game. The 71 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 3: other games they blew the lead that they had and 72 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,359 Speaker 3: then they couldn't tackle on or keep the guys off 73 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 3: off the basis, it was a it was a statement 74 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 3: series for the Mets, for sure. But you know what, 75 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 3: the Phillies are still up by four games. They're probably 76 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 3: gonna hang on. But Nolan McClain is throwing that sinker 77 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 3: slider combination that I don't know. To me, that's way 78 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:00,839 Speaker 3: harder than trying to hit a hundred miles an hour. 79 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 3: You don't know if it's that pitch is going to 80 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 3: be a slider off the plate by eight inches or 81 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 3: it's gonna stay on the plate by eight inches. It's 82 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 3: just there's so much variance in that sinker slider. And 83 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 3: what did we say yesterday? What did I say yesterday? Boy? 84 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 3: You know what the Mets would really need is somebody 85 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 3: to go over six innings and McLean's like, okay, Eric, 86 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 3: I'll listen to you. I'll go eight. 87 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 2: Here here McLean reminds me of a Schrollenbach. He's got 88 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 2: I think he's got a little bit better stuff from 89 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 2: when he came up. But remember McLain was a two 90 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 2: way guy, right comes up setting the world on our 91 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 2: Schwellenbach kind of did that until he got hurt. Obviously, 92 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 2: he's been really good for the brave so position player. 93 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 2: Many pitches, many pitches can throw, strikes, throws hard. To me, 94 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 2: he's a better version of Schwellenbach when Schwollenbach got to 95 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 2: the big leagues, and for him to come up in 96 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 2: this Pennant race. But zero point eight to nine era, 97 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 2: Viento's has been hot too. Let's not forget Viento's has 98 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 2: gotten hot all of a sudden. We have playoff Mark 99 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,280 Speaker 2: Vento's coming out of nowhere. Four games is still a 100 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 2: lot to make up. I don't know if they can 101 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 2: do it. Do they play anymore? They don't play in 102 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 2: city anymore, do they? No? 103 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,840 Speaker 1: They play another one in Philly. How many games? Krats 104 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:15,919 Speaker 1: three or three more? 105 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 3: I think it's three more. I think it's yeah. 106 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 2: I just don't know if they can make up those games. 107 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,280 Speaker 2: But yeah, It's a nice win for the Mets. It's 108 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 2: definitely sends a statement that the Phillies don't want to 109 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 2: play the Mets. 110 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 1: Might be playing them in Philly. 111 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, but still I don't know the Mets. They're going 112 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 2: to go into that that series with some serious. 113 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:41,159 Speaker 3: Mojo, confidence, mojo whatever. I'm I can't wait to watch 114 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 3: Jonah Toong pitch if. I mean, how many times do 115 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 3: you get to see two rookies thrust into a rotation 116 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 3: when the team needs it. I get it. The Reds 117 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 3: are falling off now. I think they're four and a 118 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 3: half back, so you know, maybe they don't need it, 119 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 3: but this pitching stay if, in my opinion, needs it. 120 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 3: Jonah Tung's gonna bring some serious, some serious funk too. 121 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:08,479 Speaker 3: He had I think he had like one hundred and 122 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 3: double a had like one hundred and sixty strikeouts and 123 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:12,040 Speaker 3: one hundred innings. 124 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 2: Like. 125 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 3: This guy is another athletic pitcher who's able to move 126 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 3: the ball around the strike zone. And I guess give 127 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 3: him length. I mean, we'll see, we'll see. I mean, 128 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,160 Speaker 3: Mendy was like, just keep going out there. Last night, 129 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 3: He's like, just go, just go, just pitch. What if 130 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 3: someone else throw in the ninth inning. 131 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 1: Krats.

I mean, you can't do much 169 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: better than that. 170 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 2: It's as good as it gets for a three game series. 171 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 1: Five straight hits against Taiwan Walker to start the third 172 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 1: inning and it was on and. 173 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 2: Tiwan Walker is still a playoff starter for you. 174 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 3: There. 175 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 2: Cratzy after his performance. 176 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 3: I don't think he was the playoff start every four I 177 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 3: wouldn't say. I wouldn't say I was in that camp. 178 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 3: But hey, he's had he's had. I mean, he has 179 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,839 Speaker 3: given them some innings and he was willing to throw 180 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 3: out the bullpen earlier in this year. Like I get it. 181 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 3: He complained at the end of last year because he 182 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 3: wasn't in the rotation or he wasn't in the playoff 183 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 3: Frost I mean, but to me, he's he's earned his 184 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,559 Speaker 3: innings so far, and it's been huge for him because 185 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:49,439 Speaker 3: they need it. 186 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 1: If you give Northeast fans an inch of a storyline, 187 00:08:55,720 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 1: they will grab no. Twenty miles of course, microphone signed, 188 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 1: fake mics in the stands. It is on there. You 189 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 1: got to look at that. 190 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:08,680 Speaker 3: A hanger. 191 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 1: Also, it looks like it's the top to a cake 192 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:13,319 Speaker 1: or a. 193 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 2: Potat right, it looked like a tupperware. 194 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, tupperware. Very creative, parabolic, microphonest. 195 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:20,960 Speaker 2: Fans have fun with you. Gotta get you gotta grasp 196 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,680 Speaker 2: onto things. During the season, it's so long, so good 197 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 2: for you Met fans, Good for you Mets for sweeping 198 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 2: the Phillies. Now you got four games left with them. 199 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 2: You gotta win them all. 200 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:31,880 Speaker 1: A week and a half ago, Mets fans were like, 201 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 1: we're going to miss the playoffs. So you know they 202 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: were going to miss the playoffs. I didn't, Yes you did. 203 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 1: Mets fans were like, we're screwed. We have no rotation, 204 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 1: we can't hit, we can't deliver with runners in scoring position. 205 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: By the way, look at Juan Soto's last like ten 206 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: to fifteen at bats with runners in scoring position too. Actually, 207 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,319 Speaker 1: we have a beat on it. His last eleven played 208 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 1: appearances with runners in scoring position. Now half of them. 209 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 1: Aj is not gonna love but walked, yes, walk single walk, 210 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 1: home run, single walk, walk, single walk, single single Right, 211 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 1: that's his game. 212 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 2: Oh seven or sixty five million, you better do that. 213 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 1: It's sain and that really plays in the playoffs when 214 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 1: the heat is is on and he just never gives 215 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 1: in that bad a way sometimes. Yes, I know you 216 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 1: want him to swing outside. 217 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 2: Not all the time. 218 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 1: Just you gotta pick, You gotta picking. The team's not 219 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: hitting right, like, hey, you can you can do that. 220 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 1: You can reach for one. 221 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 2: It's okay to put the ball in play and get 222 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:33,439 Speaker 2: a hit. 223 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 1: And yeah, run, it's not in his DNA. He's Vato DNA. 224 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:40,439 Speaker 1: It looks like Roman Anthony is gonna be like that, 225 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:42,959 Speaker 1: and that's a certain type of player that front office 226 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 1: is drool over. So he's playing his game and it's 227 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 1: working right now for the Mats. So they take down 228 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 1: the Phillies. Let's finish with this. Which seems better Phillies 229 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:56,679 Speaker 1: Phillies in the playoffs? 230 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,200 Speaker 2: I just think they're better one through twenty six. I mean, 231 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 2: if McLean in Manaiah and Peterson and whoever else they 232 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 2: get out their singa pitch as well, well we'll see. 233 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 2: I mean, but yeah, I think that. You know, they 234 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 2: need Hellsley to bounce back. There's a lot more. I 235 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 2: feel like the Phillies are still a better team. Plus 236 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:18,839 Speaker 2: their season, they've been through it so many times now. 237 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 2: I don't know. I just think the Phillies are right now. 238 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,679 Speaker 2: But this could change in a week and Scott's still 239 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 2: picking the Reds to take the Mets out. 240 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 1: Now they're red They're done. It would be ironic if 241 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 1: you say that and Kratz says the Mets. But let's 242 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,200 Speaker 1: throw it over to Krafts our reporter on the scene 243 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania. Which team is better? 244 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 3: Really? I think the Phillies. I think not even just 245 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 3: one through twenty six. I think just the guys you're 246 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 3: going to go to in the playoffs right now are better. 247 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 3: Can Ken Sanchez have a stinker like he had last time? 248 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:54,200 Speaker 3: Absolutely not. Can Ranger stay out there too long and 249 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 3: give up the runs? Absolutely not. Can Jordan Romano pitching 250 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 3: the playoffs for him? No? Can Kyle Schwarber go oh 251 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,719 Speaker 3: for I think twenty two in a series in the 252 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 3: playoffs against the Mets, No, absolutely not. But up until 253 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 3: that point, Kyle schwarberd hit a home run in fifteen 254 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 3: consecutive series, which is a crazy number to me. But 255 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,680 Speaker 3: to tell you how how up and down he can be, 256 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 3: he went oh for this series, and the fifteen previous 257 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 3: he had hit a home run. So I still think 258 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 3: it's the Phillies. But I'll be honest, I want to 259 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 3: see him. I want to see him face off in 260 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 3: the playoffs somehow, some I don't know what round, some rounds. 261 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,560 Speaker 1: You decide, fans listening right now, which team do you 262 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 1: think is better, just straight up, which do you think 263 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 1: is better more of a threat to win a World Series? 264 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 1: To tick down a team like the Dodgers or the 265 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: Padres or the Cubs or the Breweries in a postseason series. Hey, 266 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 1: Jamison ty On back on the injured list and Aberra 267 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 1: Saide gets called up. Any concern there or should we 268 00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 1: just be looking at Kate Horton, Like, Oh. 269 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 2: Horton's been Horton's been really really good. He's he's been 270 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 2: the real deal for a while now. I mean him 271 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 2: and him Naga Tyo will be nice to have there. 272 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 2: Sad was one of the guys that were counting on 273 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:14,320 Speaker 2: until he didn't perform, and it was down in Iowa. 274 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 2: So I listen, this is this is a blow for 275 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 2: the Cubby Bears. But Horton's been so good. It's he 276 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,960 Speaker 2: He's covered up a lot. They gotta swing it though, 277 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 2: they gotta, They gotta get back on track offensively. 278 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,719 Speaker 3: I'm confused why I said is down in Triple A. 279 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 3: I'm not seeing any last year to three seven e 280 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 3: r A and twenty nine starts this. 281 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 1: He messed a lot of time. 282 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's big to me. 283 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 3: That's a big pickup. Then it sucks losing Tywn, But 284 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 3: I think a team like the Cubs, they don't have 285 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,560 Speaker 3: enough depth to lose anybody. So yes, I think it's tough. 286 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:52,960 Speaker 1: It's not the swing man too. 287 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, he's pitching the bullpen. He started. They thought 288 00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 2: he was gonna be really good there, so we'll see. 289 00:13:59,520 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 2: We'll see. 290 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, he had a moment, but. 291 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 2: He's been up and down. If they had Justin Steele 292 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 2: would be different. We'd be having a different conversation with 293 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 2: the Cubs, especially with Horton. You're right and show Yeah, 294 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 2: if you go him and Nauga steel Horton, that's a 295 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 2: pretty good one two three. 296 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 1: That was the dream for them. He is powered by 297 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 1: Arena Club. Oh hello, show hey TONI first time completing 298 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 1: five innings this year one run, two hits, two walks, 299 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 1: nine strikeouts in eighty seven pitches against the Cincinnati Reds, 300 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 1: a season high nine punch outs fourteen of twenty nine 301 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 1: whiffs on curveballs and sweepers. He didn't unleash that curveball 302 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 1: crats until earlier this month August sixth. Then he barely 303 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 1: threw it the next few starts and then boom. I 304 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 1: didn't get the final count yesterday, but just watching him, 305 00:14:55,240 --> 00:15:00,080 Speaker 1: I saw many You probably threw more curveballs and this 306 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 1: last outing than he did the entire year. So here 307 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 1: comes another one in the arsenal. I think seven different 308 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 1: pitch types in the first inning for him alone, scaling 309 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 1: seventy six to ninety nine miles an hour. When people 310 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 1: were like, oh, this is show hate the same, he 311 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: was in a little bit of a rut on the mound. 312 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 1: It's like, actually, he's still building up to October, show 313 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 1: Hey on the mound? Do you believe that? 314 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 3: Do Do I believe that? Yes? Absolutely, I believe it. 315 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 3: This is his eleventh start, eleventh start, and he's doing 316 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 3: it against big league teams. He's doing it against the 317 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 3: Reds team here today. Yeah, shadows might have been a 318 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 3: little bit tough to see, but this team, like this 319 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 3: is a team that was supposed to be good, whether 320 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 3: we think they're good or not. They were making a 321 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 3: playoff run and for him to go five, for him 322 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 3: to get through it in the amount of pitches he did, 323 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 3: this is huge for this team. Yesterday we talked about 324 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 3: if Kershall should be if Kershall should be in the rotation. 325 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 3: Is Kershall gonna push show Hey out? Are they going 326 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 3: to tandem start? Who gets to start? Well, it has 327 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 3: to be show Hey or else you lose the spot 328 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 3: in the lineup. But what he's done to be able 329 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 3: to continue to hit like he has and pitch now 330 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 3: like he is. To me, he's on track from where 331 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 3: the Dodgers would want him to be able to be 332 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 3: ready to be one of their guys to start a 333 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 3: game in the postseason. 334 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 2: Sorry, there's a golf ball bouncing in the parking lot 335 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 2: right next to us. What Yep, no one yelled for either. 336 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 2: Someone's gonna start start yelling four. But yeah, this is 337 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 2: great for the Dodgers. Uh show Hey, getting back to 338 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 2: being giving them length. And this is this is the 339 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 2: only option really for him to pitch in the postseasons 340 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 2: to start a game, start games because but we've we've 341 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 2: beaten a bullpend thing to death that he can't really 342 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 2: do it. It doesn't work with him being the d H. 343 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 2: So yeah, if he wants he's going to pitch in 344 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 2: the postseason, he has to start. And this is a 345 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 2: this is the steps in the right direction. He looked good. 346 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 2: And by the way, let's not say, let's not pretend 347 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 2: the Reds with the twenty seven Yankees, all right, or 348 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 2: the bomb squad with the Twins a couple of years ago. 349 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 2: The Reds have been good and it been alive because 350 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:11,360 Speaker 2: they could pitch. They're mid team, they're mid offensively right, 351 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:12,720 Speaker 2: But it's still great to see him do what he 352 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,920 Speaker 2: does because show Hey showcased all the pitches, he showcased 353 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 2: the velocity, He did everything he needed to do, you know, 354 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 2: continue to build up and they get him to one 355 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 2: hundred pitches. But then the question is you know inings limit? 356 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 2: Is he on an inings limit? Well, we'll see, but 357 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,480 Speaker 2: I just think that this is a good step in 358 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:28,679 Speaker 2: the right direction. But show Hey to pitch in the 359 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 2: postseasons has to start and is he one of the 360 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 2: best three or four starters I have? 361 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 1: I feel like he knows himself so well at this point. 362 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 1: He does something that nobody else does, and he recognizes 363 00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 1: where the Dodgers are in their season. So yeah, you 364 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 1: ease up the innings, you ease in the pitches. You know, 365 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 1: pitches cause more of a strain on the body, right 366 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: usually breakers. 367 00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:53,880 Speaker 2: No, because sometimes people say the fastball when you get 368 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:55,719 Speaker 2: to you know, you really put the torque on it, 369 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 2: for the fastball is the one If we knew the 370 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:00,879 Speaker 2: answer to that, Scott, we tell people's stop doing things. 371 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: Do you think certain pitchers feel more strained from certain pitches. 372 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 2: I think everyone's built differently. It just depends on how 373 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 2: you throw pitches. I don't think that there's one scientific 374 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:12,680 Speaker 2: thing that says, because if you watch all this stuff, 375 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,160 Speaker 2: they're saying, you know, full effort puts so much strain 376 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,160 Speaker 2: on the elbow throwing a fastball. And then some people 377 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 2: think it's when you you really rip the breaking ball down. 378 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:23,120 Speaker 2: You know, some people they said for years it's splits 379 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:24,919 Speaker 2: for bad for an elbow because of the way the 380 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,920 Speaker 2: ball came out of your hands. Nobody knows. If they knew, 381 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:29,760 Speaker 2: they'd fix it. No way, he really knows. 382 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,119 Speaker 1: Twenty three curveballs twenty six percent of his pitches. I 383 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 1: could have looked down at notes and seeing that he 384 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 1: had thrown eleven combined through his first ten starts, really 385 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 1: none for so. 386 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:41,679 Speaker 2: He mixed it out. Ever, he's feeling comfortable and he 387 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 2: wants to throw some breaking Balls's make good. It's good. 388 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:45,400 Speaker 1: The more he's got, the better. 389 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 2: True. 390 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,920 Speaker 1: Usually that's the case. I mean, unless you're Darvish and 391 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 1: you have fifteen pitches and you gotta go down to 392 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:55,400 Speaker 1: ten or something. But here's Alton Gonzalez with more information 393 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:58,479 Speaker 1: on Otani and the curveball on that we're looking out 394 00:18:58,480 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 1: on the screen basically what we were saying here, and 395 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,639 Speaker 1: just gave up the Noel B. Marte homer. Aside from that, 396 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,400 Speaker 1: I mean, this was the most impressive outing from him. 397 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 1: And then he had to lead off the next half 398 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 1: inning and was hustling back. Did you see him. He 399 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,119 Speaker 1: kind of took a deep breath and then he was like, 400 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:14,920 Speaker 1: oh crap, yeah dug out. 401 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:19,520 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I think I think if you have another 402 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 3: good example, Shane Bieber took seven starts in the minor 403 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,879 Speaker 3: leagues to come off with Tommy John, not saying they 404 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:30,120 Speaker 3: had the same thing internal bracing Tommy John whatever, we're 405 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:34,440 Speaker 3: splitting hairs, but he said he felt like he needed 406 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:36,639 Speaker 3: all seven of those starts. He said may have felt 407 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 3: a little excessive, but he wanted to make sure he 408 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 3: was ready when he's in the big leagues. 409 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 1: Show. 410 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,920 Speaker 3: He's done this in the big leagues. He's built himself 411 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,200 Speaker 3: up in the big league. So if you think Shane 412 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 3: Bieber is an option for the Blue Jays, show, hey, 413 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:51,960 Speaker 3: clearly has to be an option. 414 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 1: When you watch an outing like that yesterday. Kratz, do 415 00:19:56,840 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 1: you feel differently about the Dodgers world series chances. 416 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 3: Differently, How did I feel about it before? 417 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 1: I don't know. You tell me how did you feel 418 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 1: about them? And then how do you feel when you 419 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 1: see an outing like that and think could this guy 420 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 1: be a number one in October? That dominates? 421 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 3: Will he ever be a number one? I don't know. 422 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 3: I don't know if show he will ever be a 423 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 3: number one. 424 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:28,880 Speaker 2: He wasn't number one when he was pitching Ranheim? 425 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 1: Was I think he's a one? I mean, my only 426 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 1: thing was you got to get back to the length. 427 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 1: But now that you got to five, which is what. 428 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 2: Everyone's got to do these days, more throwing the postseason anyway, 429 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 2: last night, the question is is he one of the 430 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:42,720 Speaker 2: best four for the Dodgers? The Glass, Nell, snell, Ya, Momoto, 431 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:45,119 Speaker 2: and Kershall the way he's been pitching number one? 432 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:49,119 Speaker 1: Line up their rotation. Okay, you've got you've got a 433 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 1: four game or a best of seven. You need four starters. 434 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,680 Speaker 1: Who are your starting pitchers for the Dodgers? If they're 435 00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 1: all intact here? 436 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 3: Glass, now, snell, Yelmamoto, Show, Hey, and it kills me, 437 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 3: kills me to not. 438 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,879 Speaker 2: Have probably gonna be one. He's probably gonna start Game 439 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:13,359 Speaker 2: one Yepylmoto. Then I would think they'd go Snell then 440 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 2: probably Glass. Now, then you make a decision between show 441 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 2: Hey and Kershaw. I like I like Glass now. 442 00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:25,440 Speaker 3: I like Glass on game three just because your bullpen 443 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 3: is rested from the day off after game two. I 444 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,119 Speaker 3: like that because he can just go out and he 445 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 3: can throw his hundred pitches at one hundred and two 446 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 3: miles an hour in four or five innings, probably racked 447 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,399 Speaker 3: up eight or ten strikeouts. To me, I think that 448 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,680 Speaker 3: game that Game four is dictator who starts. That is 449 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 3: dictated based on how the series is. If you're considering 450 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:51,119 Speaker 3: between Clayton and show Hey, I just don't know if 451 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:54,720 Speaker 3: you can skip an entire series of not having show 452 00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 3: Hey pitch like if you can go game four and 453 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:02,360 Speaker 3: Kershall closes it out because Yamamono is not coming back 454 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 3: for game five like other teams, so they may be 455 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 3: the only team that needs five starters in the playoffs. 456 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:12,159 Speaker 1: Ft FAM.

I 492 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:48,720 Speaker 3: know we talked about Verlander last year, but it is 493 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 3: way different case. All Kershaw ever does when he takes 494 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:56,200 Speaker 3: the ball is goes out there and gives you what 495 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 3: is needed. I don't care. I don't. I don't like 496 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 3: the whole talk about posting he's in. Kershaw don't because 497 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:04,240 Speaker 3: I think the next start will always be his best start. 498 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 1: To me, it's beyond postseason. Kershaw at this point is not. 499 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,400 Speaker 2: Good moments in the postseason. Like early he was really 500 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 2: bad early, like but it's mostly against Saint Louis. But 501 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:18,960 Speaker 2: he's been a lot better, I mean for a long time, 502 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 2: he said moments. 503 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, does his stuff play against the top offenses the 504 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 1: same way? 505 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:24,119 Speaker 3: Like? 506 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,360 Speaker 2: Is there played against everyone every team's face this year? Yeah, 507 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 2: I don't know who he's pitching against, but every team 508 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 2: he's pitching against he's been fine. 509 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 1: Now you want, I mean, you want the best stuff out. Okay, 510 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 1: so I'm just so dark. 511 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 2: Show Hey, Piggybackershaw, I don't know. 512 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:39,719 Speaker 1: No, he doesn't. I don't think he'll there. 513 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 2: He is against the team. He just so it was 514 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 2: so good the Reds. 515 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:44,919 Speaker 1: You're the one who's all over the Reds. 516 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 2: Our offense is not that good. 517 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:47,440 Speaker 1: It's not. 518 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,640 Speaker 2: If they could hit, they'd be a lot better because 519 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 2: their pitching has been really good. 520 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:57,440 Speaker 1: Okay, so five man rotation, a very rare five rotation 521 00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:58,120 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. 522 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:02,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think it's gonna happen, because you're gonna want. 523 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:06,399 Speaker 1: Even even believers. How is this working? 524 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,400 Speaker 2: I don't know. That's what's gonna be fascinating to see 525 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:09,920 Speaker 2: what they do with Otni. They now they might back 526 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,479 Speaker 2: Otani off and say, listen, Show, hey, you're at your 527 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 2: limit since you just had your second elbow surgery, and 528 00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 2: this is that be their excuse to get out of it? 529 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 1: Does Otany have to start or could you midgame him? 530 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 2: You can't because then you lose the DH when you 531 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 2: take them out. You can't do that that's the whole thing. 532 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:27,240 Speaker 1: You can't do that. 533 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 2: He has to start or he does not pitch unless 534 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 2: he comes in and closes, and you just hope and 535 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,720 Speaker 2: pray that he doesn't blow it. But they also haven't 536 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:38,919 Speaker 2: done that. So at some point, if they're gonna make 537 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,480 Speaker 2: him the closer, they're gonna have to start getting him 538 00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:43,159 Speaker 2: ready to do that. Because what happens if it's the 539 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 2: bottom of the they're in Dodger Stadium, it's game seven 540 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:48,199 Speaker 2: of the World Series. Show, hey, hits a lead off 541 00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:50,879 Speaker 2: double and he oh, by the way, we're tied, and 542 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:52,680 Speaker 2: he's the goal ahead run. He scores the goal ahead 543 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 2: run with two outs, and they're like, hey, show, you're 544 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 2: closing the night. He hasn't thrown. They can't do it. 545 00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:00,240 Speaker 1: Okay, they can't do it w your four bests, tough 546 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:03,160 Speaker 1: guys in the playoffs. And if that's the case, you're 547 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:04,679 Speaker 1: gonna sacrifice a reliever. 548 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 2: Yes, we'll see that. 549 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 1: Yama Moto can get an extra day in a four 550 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 1: game series. 551 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 2: Yeah you want four? 552 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:12,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, they have to get through a wild card round first, 553 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:13,679 Speaker 1: most likely, or like. 554 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:18,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not keep playing a city the Dodgers. 555 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:23,360 Speaker 3: The Dodgers have the Dodgers have been to the postseason enough. 556 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:28,200 Speaker 3: They understand Dave Roberts was masterful in the use of 557 00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:32,000 Speaker 3: the bullpen. They understand their goal is to get twenty 558 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 3: seven outs each night. And to me, I think with 559 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 3: Kershaw and Showhey as starting pitchers, how it works out. 560 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 3: I think it'll depend on what round they're in the 561 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:45,960 Speaker 3: three the three game wild Card series, or they get 562 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:49,399 Speaker 3: a buye in the first round, whatever it is. I 563 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:51,320 Speaker 3: think that's how they're gonna I think that's how they're 564 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:54,920 Speaker 3: gonna deploy it, which is a bonus compared to last 565 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 3: year where they had to start two or have two 566 00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 3: complete bullpen games. Their bullpen not in that kind of 567 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:02,879 Speaker 3: shape right now. They may heal up by the end 568 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 3: of September, but not right now. They're not. 569 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 1: And also, you generally are doing those bullpen games on 570 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 1: a need basis. Yeah, and that was the case for 571 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:16,199 Speaker 1: them and it worked out well enough. Yeah, all right, 572 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,000 Speaker 1: ft fam, you know about Arena Club. We've shown you 573 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 1: a bunch of different options on the screen, including that 574 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 1: show Hey fifty to fifty card that I pulled. I mean, 575 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 1: he's not going to do that again, is he? No? 576 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 2: Not this year? 577 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:30,159 Speaker 1: No? 578 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:34,120 Speaker 2: He actually four years now. He's not getting stolen bases. 579 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,119 Speaker 1: This year, right, But let's say three four years from now, 580 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:38,840 Speaker 1: if he if he stops pitching eventually and he becomes 581 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 1: an outfielder, he might fifty to fifty again. 582 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:42,639 Speaker 2: He could probably get He could probably do it. He 583 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 2: could have done He could probably do it this year 584 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:45,600 Speaker 2: if they'd let him run. But remember he hurt his 585 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 2: shoulder last year in the playoffs, and so they're very 586 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 2: leery of him doing anything to hurt himself. They need 587 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,040 Speaker 2: him more just in the lineup. So if he only 588 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:56,480 Speaker 2: gets thirty five stolen bases this year's still pretty good. 589 00:27:56,440 --> 00:28:01,159 Speaker 3: Years saving the team. It's crazy. 590 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: That's why I'm holding onto that one. It might be 591 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 1: the only season of show a fifty to fifty cards 592 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 1: used to code ful foul for twenty percent off your 593 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,680 Speaker 1: first slab pack or card purchase. Hey did you see 594 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 1: this article in the Athletic about the Bananas. I mean 595 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:15,159 Speaker 1: there were two notable parts. One is they're trying to 596 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:18,680 Speaker 1: get them involved in the Midsummer Classic, and two is 597 00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:21,159 Speaker 1: they kind of apologize for bringing up the golden at 598 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:24,880 Speaker 1: bat rule. I'll comment on the first one. How about 599 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,200 Speaker 1: you replace the celebrity All Star Softball game. 600 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:31,240 Speaker 2: With a banana ball, Banana ball games, banana bolversus, like 601 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,640 Speaker 2: the MLB alumni something like that. Yeah, come to see 602 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 2: that and try to get guys from the team they're 603 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 2: in Philly next year. They get a bunch of Philly guys, 604 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,479 Speaker 2: you know Howard, Ryan Howard and Jimmy Rollins and Kratz 605 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 2: and Jason Worth and all those guys that that that 606 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 2: wanna that are Phillies guys. Now, you might have to 607 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 2: bring in some guys from other teams, but yeah, I 608 00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 2: think it would be pretty cool. Get you get that done. 609 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 2: Pretty awesome. 610 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 3: So know that anybody that was an ex All Star 611 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 3: could be the All Star alum game confusing. People back 612 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 3: in the game love him. 613 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:06,360 Speaker 1: They said, they don't have room for the banana game. 614 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 2: Stop celebrity game, the celebrity game. 615 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 1: Or have some of the celebrities participated in the bananas 616 00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 1: know how to run it better? Yeah, we all know 617 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: that that they. 618 00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:17,520 Speaker 2: Quick and incorporate the heck out of some celebrities. 619 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I'll bring up the Alex Corra quote about 620 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,920 Speaker 1: Roman Anthony. He's opening up a little more as a person. 621 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 1: He's a cool kid. Sarcasm comes into play with him, 622 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 1: which is awesome. 623 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 3: We like it. 624 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 1: It's been fun. We were joking that we unlocked the 625 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 1: real Roman after he signed a big contract. That tracks 626 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 1: for some guys, right. 627 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 2: Some guys get comfortable. I mean, look at Schooble number 628 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:38,120 Speaker 2: Terrek School, nobody really knew who he was, and then 629 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 2: he went went off usher whens of Cy Young and 630 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 2: now he's one of the best interviews on FT and 631 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 2: and all around baseball. So sometimes guys just need to 632 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:47,760 Speaker 2: be comfortable. Once they're comfortable, they let it out. 633 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 3: Yeah. 634 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 1: I mean, you know that when you sign a contract, 635 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 1: you can basically speak your mind. Kratz. I feel like 636 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 1: we often have that conversation like, oh, pre contract, guy 637 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 1: is probably gonna be a little more team. 638 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, you don't want to. You don't want to 639 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 3: ruin it for that for that contract that could be coming. 640 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 3: And you know, once you get a contract, especially in Boston, 641 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 3: maybe just you say I don't want to play a 642 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:15,760 Speaker 3: certain position, and you know they feel more comfortable to 643 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 3: be able to say that, right. 644 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 1: You guys tell me. I think so. Boston media, Boston 645 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 1: attention in general can be tough at a high level 646 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,600 Speaker 1: and tough and for the first couple of months, it 647 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 1: was like, oh, Roman Anthony, he's pretty quiet. 648 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,360 Speaker 2: You better be real secure in yourself to go play there. 649 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 2: And then once you sign the deal, you can kind 650 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 2: of let it out. But until until you get a 651 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 2: little security you you have to really watch it because 652 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 2: they take, like we mentioned Northeast, they take any small 653 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 2: thing and make a mountain out of it. 654 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 1: I also think teams are looking at you and listening 655 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 1: to you. 656 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 2: Of course, they're always a value team, they're always a valua. 657 00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 1: But they can't evaluate you the same way once you sign. 658 00:30:56,160 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 1: It's true, right if you're like some guys give me sarcasm, Yeah, 659 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 1: it's like, well sucks you sign. 660 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 2: They're like, this guy's awesome. 661 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 1: But yeah, Usually I think it creates a better personality. 662 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:11,720 Speaker 1: Sure someone right, most guys, it's not like, oh, turns 663 00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 1: out he was a dick. Like it's like, turns out 664 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 1: he's funny. Turns a little bit now, Hey. Top blow 665 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:24,000 Speaker 1: for the Milwaukee Brewers. We learned yesterday Trevor McGill hits 666 00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 1: the injured list with a flexer stream in his flexer 667 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:30,960 Speaker 1: string in his right arm. We'll test for the bullpen depths. 668 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 1: It could be low grade and he was down playing 669 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 1: it a little bit. 670 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 2: You know what this this means a rebate time, the 671 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 2: rebate tome Ariebey, Tom Rebay Tom Rebey time. 672 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:47,280 Speaker 1: Wow, that was worth the price of admission right there, 673 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 1: Kratz and aj doing the avenue Rebay. I like it. 674 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:56,479 Speaker 3: Our arms together aren't combined, aren't as long as his are, 675 00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 3: so so it just looks different. It looks different when 676 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:02,560 Speaker 3: certain people do differ celebrations. But this is this is 677 00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 3: a huge blow. I get it. Every team has, you know, 678 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 3: knees their closer. Yes, they have a lot of depth, 679 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 3: but this guy was putting together from the start of 680 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 3: the season. He had a little blip at the beginning. 681 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 3: Since then he's been almost unhittable. 682 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 2: Now this last week though, no, he had not this 683 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 2: last week. He's had a big blip. That's why they 684 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:25,960 Speaker 2: were like, oh, had this past week. This past week 685 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:28,080 Speaker 2: has been not good as Villa was down a little bit. 686 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 2: So yeah, this is what they go. 687 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,280 Speaker 1: Hopefully he's able to make it back. Yeah, they need 688 00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 1: him some teams and closers. 689 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,480 Speaker 2: Lately, someone had a funny joke, take a trade for 690 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:39,200 Speaker 2: Devin Williams. 691 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:44,040 Speaker 1: Wait, Yankees could cut him. There's a couple of days 692 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:48,600 Speaker 1: to go to make that happen on. Yeah, you have 693 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:51,080 Speaker 1: to be in an organization before the end of this month. 694 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 1: Today is the twenty eighth of August. 695 00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 2: Dump deadline Scott's favorite day. Taking that. 696 00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:00,120 Speaker 1: I think the dump deadline because people have been asked me. 697 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:02,320 Speaker 1: I'm the dump deadline guy. Now people haven't asked me. 698 00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 1: I think it's tomorrow because I think it's forty eight 699 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 1: hours to clear or to get claimed. 700 00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 2: Name of a guy that's gonna get dumped tomorrow. 701 00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 1: Scott Devin Williams. No, Oh my gosh, who's getting dumped? 702 00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 1: Anybody on the Rangers. There were a couple guys who 703 00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 1: are free agents. 704 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:23,600 Speaker 3: The main one I thought was gonna get dump was 705 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:27,520 Speaker 3: he Andrew Heeney. If he's if he's owed, like he 706 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 3: already got dumped. He already got dumped. I'm saying that's 707 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:33,160 Speaker 3: that's what I thought, and I assume he was. He's 708 00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 3: gonna get picked up by somebody. 709 00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 1: Carlo Santana got dumped. That made sense. You're looking for 710 00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:39,800 Speaker 1: those There's a new. 711 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:41,400 Speaker 2: Pirate who was the other pirate one? There was another 712 00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:46,240 Speaker 2: pirate one, Tommy fam He didn't get deadline dump. 713 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:56,480 Speaker 1: I know but why not the good, the bad, the ugly. 714 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 1: That's new. You haven't seen that, have you? 715 00:33:59,440 --> 00:33:59,480 Speaker 3: No? 716 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 2: I don't even know what that's for. What is what 717 00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:01,920 Speaker 2: are we doing here? 718 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,240 Speaker 1: The new segment? I got that lady likes to create. 719 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 1: I like the segments. So you liked it, Okay, Kratz, 720 00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,080 Speaker 1: do you lead the charge? Clint Eastwood out there and like, yeah, 721 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:16,799 Speaker 1: uniform the good. I know what the good is. We're 722 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:18,759 Speaker 1: hitting the Yankees for a moment because we did crush 723 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:22,440 Speaker 1: them from their disaster weekend and praised the Red Sox 724 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,960 Speaker 1: for owning them this year. They know how to rebound, 725 00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:28,800 Speaker 1: all bends on who they play. You want to rebound, 726 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 1: let me give you a week of the Nationals and 727 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:36,960 Speaker 1: then the White Sox Yankees run line all day eleven 728 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:43,160 Speaker 1: to two in the end of the series. The Kapper 729 00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 1: in that one and yeah, they really found it again, Krats. 730 00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 3: Did they ever lose it or did it just go 731 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:54,680 Speaker 3: dormant because they were facing teams that were able to 732 00:34:54,760 --> 00:35:00,480 Speaker 3: execute pitches. I mean in Washington, Washington consistently hasn't been 733 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,560 Speaker 3: able to execute pitches. They have been a team that 734 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:05,440 Speaker 3: just kind of goes out there and they don't have 735 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 3: a lot of experience, especially with Mackenzie Goren struggling for 736 00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 3: the last half of the season, three quarter, probably just 737 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:16,680 Speaker 3: half of the season. The Yankees are just they're gonna 738 00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:19,839 Speaker 3: hit dingers, Like this entire highlight. I just had laugh 739 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 3: as the picture in that highlight, like just put his 740 00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:27,120 Speaker 3: head down. They hit dingers, and you talk, we taught, 741 00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:29,680 Speaker 3: we complain about teams that don't hit dingers. They're not 742 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 3: gonna be able to do well in the playoffs. The 743 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 3: question of you guys that I have, can you hit 744 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:38,239 Speaker 3: dingers to get to the World Series and win it? 745 00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 2: What was the stats? Got? Always yells out there. Last 746 00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 2: five teams have been on the floor. 747 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:45,839 Speaker 1: I don't want to steal it from him. 748 00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:49,359 Speaker 3: Then I think it's something that I think it works 749 00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 3: because clearly they made it last year and people say, well, 750 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:54,080 Speaker 3: they don't have one Soto and they don't have this 751 00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:57,239 Speaker 3: guy in the rotation. They don't coal, you know. I 752 00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 3: think Max Freed is going to step up. This team 753 00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:03,000 Speaker 3: is a very good team. I think their bullpen. Obviously 754 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:06,719 Speaker 3: some of the pickups that they've had have not done great. 755 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:11,279 Speaker 3: But bed NAR's in there, so to me, yes, Devin 756 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:14,279 Speaker 3: Williams is not the Devin Williams of last year. But 757 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:17,399 Speaker 3: I think this team is ready to go. I think 758 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 3: this team will go through ups and downs. So could 759 00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:23,560 Speaker 3: you see that. It's it's crazy because you can't sit 760 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 3: there and say, oh, this team is going to be 761 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:31,040 Speaker 3: in the World Series again, definitively. But you also can't 762 00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:33,399 Speaker 3: even though it's just a National Series. You can't sit 763 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 3: there and go all, this team's definitively not going to 764 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:40,280 Speaker 3: be you know, they're gonna get eliminated from the playoffs 765 00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:43,560 Speaker 3: or they're going to bounce in the first round. To me, 766 00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 3: I think, yo, it's one of those. It's one of those. 767 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:49,800 Speaker 3: Like this staff or this tweet from Jack Curry, the 768 00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 3: Yankees saw seventy seven pitches from the Nats pitchers in 769 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:57,799 Speaker 3: their nine run third inning at Atlanta's. Greg Maddox, who 770 00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:00,880 Speaker 3: we just had on the show tassa seventy eight pitch 771 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 3: complete game against the Cubs in on July twenty second, 772 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:10,040 Speaker 3: nineteen ninety seven. That's crazy, that's crazy. Seventy seven pitches, 773 00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:12,839 Speaker 3: I think is the most since the stat Cast era 774 00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 3: in two thousand and eight, and they did it in 775 00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:19,640 Speaker 3: one inning. Seventy seven pitches in one inning. That is 776 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:21,200 Speaker 3: the stat that I was going to bring up, and 777 00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 3: we talk about dingers. Yes, they hit a lot of homers. 778 00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:29,319 Speaker 3: They work the counts, they make pitchers work. I don't 779 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:31,759 Speaker 3: care if it was a Gnats, I don't care if 780 00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:34,320 Speaker 3: it was what team it was. If it's the White Sox, 781 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:37,440 Speaker 3: you have to win the games that you have to 782 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 3: win in front of you. Do they need to step 783 00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:41,640 Speaker 3: up in big games? Yes? Did they kind of fall 784 00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 3: flat on their face the first three games of the 785 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:48,520 Speaker 3: Red Sox series, Yes, but they are a dangerous team 786 00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:51,600 Speaker 3: that puts together at bats and there's not some kind 787 00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:56,239 Speaker 3: of organizational overhaul that we need to go with. And 788 00:37:57,480 --> 00:38:01,840 Speaker 3: you know what, the Yankees, they're prepared for the playoffs 789 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:04,759 Speaker 3: with the roster that they have. I don't know if 790 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:06,800 Speaker 3: it's gonna I don't know how it's gonna go. So 791 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:08,920 Speaker 3: if you're asking me to choose on the Yankees, I'm 792 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:11,879 Speaker 3: gonna be the most fifty to fifty that I could 793 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:15,880 Speaker 3: be in one spot. But this team hits dingers, and 794 00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:19,640 Speaker 3: dingers win in the playoffs. Yeah, that's what he said. 795 00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:20,680 Speaker 1: That's what he said. 796 00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:22,960 Speaker 3: That's what he said. 797 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:28,360 Speaker 1: That's what he said. Let's talk for a few minutes 798 00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:32,399 Speaker 1: about the Detroit Tigers. We got a quote from aj Hinch, 799 00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:35,400 Speaker 1: Well that's what he said as they fell yesterday to 800 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:41,360 Speaker 1: the A's. There it is. We had a really bleepy series. 801 00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:43,760 Speaker 1: Bleepy is a different. 802 00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:47,160 Speaker 2: Word, but what is a bleepy series? Is that like 803 00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:47,799 Speaker 2: good or bad? 804 00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:51,239 Speaker 1: Should bleepy? Does that help? 805 00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 3: Yes? 806 00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:55,600 Speaker 1: Okay, we had a really should bleepy series. We didn't 807 00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:59,600 Speaker 1: play well. I just wanted to give him the contexts 808 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:02,840 Speaker 1: the bleep Okay, just making sure everyone caught that we 809 00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 1: got beat in all facets. When you get out played 810 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:07,440 Speaker 1: on offense, defense, pitching across the board, it's painful to 811 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:10,719 Speaker 1: wait and painful to experience. As a team. We know 812 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:13,879 Speaker 1: we're going to be better. Tiger's having a tough time 813 00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:15,319 Speaker 1: this week with the A's. 814 00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:22,560 Speaker 2: World hottest team right now, the well, it's perfect sacramental, Yeah, 815 00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:25,680 Speaker 2: because they're winning. Did I say easy over? How many 816 00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:27,239 Speaker 2: they wins they have now? Sixty three? 817 00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:29,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, they need about ten more for that. 818 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:32,640 Speaker 2: They're over under going into the year was seventy one 819 00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:33,239 Speaker 2: point five. 820 00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:37,600 Speaker 1: That looks bad for a while when they lost like 821 00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:38,200 Speaker 1: twenty Have. 822 00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:40,480 Speaker 2: You watched what the West Sacramento a is doing the 823 00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:42,960 Speaker 2: second half the last like five years, they like duck 824 00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 2: suck s x x sick. Then they go really good 825 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 2: and then idiots like me think, hey, this is the 826 00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:48,319 Speaker 2: year they get over the hill, and then they suck 827 00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:49,880 Speaker 2: sux sucks x suck for the first even then they 828 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:50,759 Speaker 2: go right like the right. 829 00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:53,080 Speaker 1: So they might finish with what seventy five wins? Yeah 830 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:55,960 Speaker 1: that sound right, something like that. All right, to where 831 00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:56,919 Speaker 1: are we out of the five years? 832 00:39:57,120 --> 00:39:59,360 Speaker 2: Know, if if they're at sixty would I say sixty 833 00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:02,520 Speaker 2: two or sixty thre rehold on? If they're they're at 834 00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:05,600 Speaker 2: sixty three right now, and they got about twenty seven 835 00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:09,560 Speaker 2: games left, so they go thirteen and fourteen. That puts 836 00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:10,840 Speaker 2: them at seventy six wins. 837 00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:14,560 Speaker 1: That's over where we added on the Tigers. They've lost 838 00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:15,359 Speaker 1: four games in a row. 839 00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:17,319 Speaker 2: Tigers are fine. Tigers are bored. 840 00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:19,480 Speaker 1: That's what I wanted out of you. 841 00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:22,160 Speaker 2: The Tigers are bored. They've got they're up eight and 842 00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:24,840 Speaker 2: a half games, they're they're they're they're up eight in 843 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:26,600 Speaker 2: the lost calm. I mean they're bored right now. 844 00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:28,800 Speaker 1: Playing well, they're playing for home field. 845 00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:32,200 Speaker 2: Playing for home field, but they're gonna get the one 846 00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:34,200 Speaker 2: or two seeds. It's gonna be them in Toronto more 847 00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:36,760 Speaker 2: than likely with the one two seeds. So they're just bored. 848 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 2: They're just we're gonna win the division. Let's just keep 849 00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:41,800 Speaker 2: everybody healthy. Yes, they'd like to find another pitcher to 850 00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 2: step up. They need for thirty to get going. I'll 851 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:45,480 Speaker 2: see him on Saturday. I'll let you guys know what 852 00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:49,400 Speaker 2: he looks like in Kansas City. But you know, school 853 00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:51,160 Speaker 2: has been good. School has been human though the last 854 00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:53,920 Speaker 2: few starts. But the rest of this team they're just 855 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:55,440 Speaker 2: going through. They're not I don't want to I every 856 00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:57,000 Speaker 2: want to say they're going through the motions, but there 857 00:40:57,239 --> 00:40:59,640 Speaker 2: there's no urgency. But they need to find that again 858 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:02,359 Speaker 2: before where the postseason gets here so they can kick 859 00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:04,239 Speaker 2: it in. Because this is what teams always say, Oh 860 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:07,120 Speaker 2: we had won the division by so many games, been 861 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:09,200 Speaker 2: a hard time ramping it back up. Well, now Hanch 862 00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:11,439 Speaker 2: is time to light a fire and get these boys 863 00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:12,120 Speaker 2: ramp back up. 864 00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:14,239 Speaker 1: So Kratz, they play the Royals again for the next 865 00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:16,640 Speaker 1: view that carries over the weekend, and then they meet 866 00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:18,719 Speaker 1: up with the Mets. They'll be back at home for 867 00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:24,000 Speaker 1: that one to start early next week. Do teams opponents 868 00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:28,239 Speaker 1: good competition? Help to amp things up for a team 869 00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:30,320 Speaker 1: that can be in cruise control right now, or is 870 00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:32,560 Speaker 1: there something else that can be done? And does it 871 00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:34,480 Speaker 1: even matter at the end of the day. There have 872 00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:37,719 Speaker 1: been teams that have cruised into the playoffs and one 873 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:42,000 Speaker 1: World Series titles. There are many examples of that doesn't matter. 874 00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:44,920 Speaker 3: I mean, I'm gonna say no and then everyone's going 875 00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:46,520 Speaker 3: to turn our show off because they're not going to 876 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,880 Speaker 3: listen to us talk about it. But I think it 877 00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:54,600 Speaker 3: does matter because I think different series mean different things. 878 00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:58,000 Speaker 3: If you watched if you watched Charlie Morton, I actually 879 00:41:58,040 --> 00:42:01,400 Speaker 3: watched both his starts when he was with Baltimore, and 880 00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:05,479 Speaker 3: when he came into Oakland kept looking at the mound, 881 00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:08,520 Speaker 3: kept looking down like something's wrong with this thing. So 882 00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:10,560 Speaker 3: maybe that was part of it for the Tigers. Maybe 883 00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:14,239 Speaker 3: there's pitching staff didn't feel comfortable in the mound. If 884 00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:18,440 Speaker 3: you want to like bump up the bump up the momentum, 885 00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:21,440 Speaker 3: or bump up the adrenaline, go play a division opponent. 886 00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:24,399 Speaker 3: I think the Royal Series. While the Royals could sweep 887 00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:26,399 Speaker 3: them and they'd still be five and a half games back, 888 00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:28,520 Speaker 3: I'm not saying that they're going to catch them. I 889 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:31,400 Speaker 3: just think there's a familiarity in the division and that 890 00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 3: series will bring back the adrenaline if that's what the 891 00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:39,239 Speaker 3: Tigers need, more than the Mets series, where the Mets 892 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:41,440 Speaker 3: are a better team than the Royals. But I think 893 00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:44,320 Speaker 3: that Royal series anytime you play in the division, that 894 00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:48,160 Speaker 3: rivalry has been there the last few years. I just 895 00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:50,319 Speaker 3: think I think that's where I think that's where they'll 896 00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:52,800 Speaker 3: get their a little bump of adrenaline if they need it. 897 00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:56,000 Speaker 3: You know, you don't want to limp into the playoffs, 898 00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:59,360 Speaker 3: but you also don't want to peak too early and 899 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:02,759 Speaker 3: not be hitting on all cylinders. So the Tigers are fine. 900 00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:06,920 Speaker 1: I feel like you would have done something crazy if 901 00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:09,200 Speaker 1: you are on a team like this AJ just to 902 00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:11,520 Speaker 1: make sure that they're aware of where they're at. 903 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:13,799 Speaker 2: I've been on teams with big leads, and I've been 904 00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:15,839 Speaker 2: went to two thousand and five White Tucks. At one point, 905 00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:17,239 Speaker 2: I think we had a fifteen game lead. They got 906 00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:20,040 Speaker 2: down to one and a half or two games against 907 00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:24,040 Speaker 2: when the old Indian Slash Guardians were there, and all 908 00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:26,279 Speaker 2: it took was them to come play us and Joe 909 00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:28,239 Speaker 2: Creedy hitting a walk off homer and from that point on, 910 00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:31,960 Speaker 2: we barely lost again and smashed everybody in the playoffs. 911 00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:35,880 Speaker 2: So it just sometimes you listen when they play the Royals, 912 00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:38,640 Speaker 2: they're in second place, they'll they'll they'll be there, and 913 00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 2: then you know they have Flarty School and I don't 914 00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 2: know who's Sunday, but I think that, and then they 915 00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:46,799 Speaker 2: get the Mets at home. They'll get back home. Plus 916 00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:50,520 Speaker 2: let's awso en not forget they went to Sacramno, it's 917 00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:56,839 Speaker 2: a triple A stadium with no atmosphere, no energy. And also, 918 00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:58,200 Speaker 2: if you look at it, this is not a knock 919 00:43:58,200 --> 00:43:59,439 Speaker 2: on the age, but they didn't have a good first 920 00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:01,000 Speaker 2: half of the times. Look at it and say, oh, 921 00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:03,120 Speaker 2: we can kind of coast through this one, right, and 922 00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:05,440 Speaker 2: it's hard to get up. Now they're going to Kansas City. 923 00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:07,680 Speaker 2: Kents City'll be rocking, they're in the division. Then they 924 00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:09,640 Speaker 2: go home for the Mets and there's gonna be an 925 00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:11,800 Speaker 2: energy in Old Comerica Park when the Mets come in. 926 00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:14,000 Speaker 2: So this this will get them going again. 927 00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:19,160 Speaker 1: Okay, Kratz, what would you do if you were a manager, 928 00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:23,240 Speaker 1: or we're a veteran guy in the clubhouse with the Tigers, 929 00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:27,160 Speaker 1: if you felt like the team needed you know a 930 00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:27,759 Speaker 1: little bit. 931 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:32,279 Speaker 3: Of this manager nothing. That's the players thing to do. 932 00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:35,000 Speaker 3: If I'm a veteran guy, if I'm the if I'm 933 00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:37,279 Speaker 3: the Jake Rogers, the guy that's not playing every day, 934 00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:42,120 Speaker 3: if I'm me on that team, come in after you 935 00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:45,919 Speaker 3: just got swept out of Sacramento and you tell the boys, 936 00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:50,120 Speaker 3: turn the music up, turn the music up, turn you know, 937 00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:53,040 Speaker 3: turn the page. It's time to get onto the next series. 938 00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:57,000 Speaker 3: We're going into Kansas City. Kansas City, here we come play. 939 00:44:57,080 --> 00:45:00,440 Speaker 3: It almost like tricks your mind to think, you know what, 940 00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:03,759 Speaker 3: screw it. Sacramento did suck. The team came out and 941 00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:06,719 Speaker 3: they beat us, But the whole atmosphere walking out to 942 00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:11,080 Speaker 3: walking out the center field after a game that sucks, like, 943 00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:13,760 Speaker 3: let's go play a big in a big league stadium 944 00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:15,960 Speaker 3: in Kansas City and beat the brakes. 945 00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:19,800 Speaker 1: Off of them, and do you have a chance to 946 00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:22,880 Speaker 1: knock a division rival out of the playoff picture. 947 00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:23,759 Speaker 2: Nobody thinks about that. 948 00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:25,320 Speaker 1: You don't care about that. 949 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,160 Speaker 2: Rivalries to me, aren't what they used to be. This 950 00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:32,879 Speaker 2: isn't twenty five, thirty five, forty five, fifty years ago 951 00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:35,759 Speaker 2: where that really mattered because guys switched teams so much 952 00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:37,400 Speaker 2: more now that we used to be a thing. I 953 00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:39,480 Speaker 2: remember when I was in the Central we'd be like, oh, 954 00:45:39,520 --> 00:45:41,640 Speaker 2: we got a chance to knock this team out or 955 00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:44,319 Speaker 2: knock that team out because we played like twenty times 956 00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:45,879 Speaker 2: a year. So you just got to the point where 957 00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:47,680 Speaker 2: you're like, I don't want I'm tired of seeing them. 958 00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:50,319 Speaker 2: I don't want to see them again. Now they play 959 00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:52,239 Speaker 2: what thirteen times a year, which didn't seem like a 960 00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:55,200 Speaker 2: big difference, those six games are huge difference. They guys 961 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:57,880 Speaker 2: just don't think like that anymore. They just don't think like, oh, 962 00:45:57,920 --> 00:45:59,919 Speaker 2: they're in our division, we can knock them out. Because 963 00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:03,000 Speaker 2: if you're the Tiger's your thing. We've we've are this 964 00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:04,800 Speaker 2: much better than the Royals. If they get in and 965 00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:06,440 Speaker 2: we have to play them, we feel like we can 966 00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:08,360 Speaker 2: beat them. It's just a different mentality. 967 00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:14,200 Speaker 1: How do you feel about the American League playoff picture, Krats? 968 00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:16,880 Speaker 1: I feel like it's gonna be one of those situations 969 00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:20,359 Speaker 1: where you look at the field and you're the National 970 00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:23,439 Speaker 1: League side. There's a lot of talent. The American League 971 00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:28,400 Speaker 1: side is definitely a notch down. I I just have 972 00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:32,239 Speaker 1: a hard time predicting results on the National League or sorry, 973 00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:35,400 Speaker 1: on the American League side too. I mean, Tiger's really good, 974 00:46:35,440 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 1: Blue Jays are really good. But could the Mariners slay 975 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:42,480 Speaker 1: either of those teams? Absolutely? Could the Yankees take down 976 00:46:42,560 --> 00:46:45,160 Speaker 1: either of those teams? Absolutely? Could the Red Sox take 977 00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:48,080 Speaker 1: down either of those teams? Yep? What do you think? 978 00:46:49,680 --> 00:46:52,280 Speaker 3: I think we have to watch the rest how September 979 00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:56,920 Speaker 3: plays out health wise, how September plays out in you 980 00:46:57,000 --> 00:47:01,719 Speaker 3: know who's swinging it for what teams, and ultimately that 981 00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:05,799 Speaker 3: Wildcard round could help an American League team. I say 982 00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:08,200 Speaker 3: that because some of these teams, now, of these teams 983 00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:10,719 Speaker 3: are really like built to be just a juggernaut of 984 00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:13,520 Speaker 3: the American League, where that day off is giving them 985 00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:16,160 Speaker 3: the break that they need and they're just gonna be 986 00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:19,279 Speaker 3: fresh and go. It might be one of these Wildcard 987 00:47:19,719 --> 00:47:22,120 Speaker 3: series teams, the four they play in the wild the 988 00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:25,600 Speaker 3: three game series and the Wildcards, they might say, you 989 00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:28,960 Speaker 3: know what, we never even got a break. We're just 990 00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:31,280 Speaker 3: not coming up for air. We're just gonna keep banging 991 00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:34,480 Speaker 3: and we're just gonna keep rolling. So to me, I 992 00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:36,960 Speaker 3: think they're all really muddled. I think the six teams 993 00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:39,040 Speaker 3: that are gonna be in the playoffs for the American League, 994 00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:42,239 Speaker 3: they're all kind of muddled, and it's gonna be a 995 00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:45,280 Speaker 3: matter of like Game one and Game two of playoffs 996 00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:48,920 Speaker 3: before I can really decide who I think is the best. 997 00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:52,160 Speaker 2: There is no clear cut favorite in either league for me, 998 00:47:52,560 --> 00:47:55,319 Speaker 2: not just the AO NL two D ed all teams. 999 00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:57,719 Speaker 2: I feel like we're on a better level talent wise 1000 00:47:57,760 --> 00:48:00,160 Speaker 2: and just one thro six depth wise for the for 1001 00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:03,080 Speaker 2: the organizations. But I don't think I don't think you 1002 00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:05,560 Speaker 2: can go right now. We had this conversation where we said, 1003 00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:07,759 Speaker 2: do you take the Dodgers of the field. If you 1004 00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:09,840 Speaker 2: take the Dodgers of the field right now, and you 1005 00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:13,040 Speaker 2: would say the field right almost everybody would say that sure. 1006 00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:14,680 Speaker 2: And if you win the American League and you said 1007 00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:17,600 Speaker 2: you'll take the Blue Jays or the Tigers in the field, 1008 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:18,560 Speaker 2: would you take the field? 1009 00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:19,359 Speaker 1: Yes? 1010 00:48:19,600 --> 00:48:21,759 Speaker 2: Okay, So then there's no clear cut favorite this year, 1011 00:48:21,760 --> 00:48:23,320 Speaker 2: which is great. I love it stuff. 1012 00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:25,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm talking this up. I'm asking this in a 1013 00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:27,000 Speaker 1: good way where I'm looking at both guys. 1014 00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:30,440 Speaker 2: There's you can make a legitimate case for any of 1015 00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:32,600 Speaker 2: the twelve teams that gets in the postseason to win 1016 00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:33,160 Speaker 2: the whole thing. 1017 00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:34,360 Speaker 1: And how often can you do that? 1018 00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:35,600 Speaker 2: I didn't happen a lot. 1019 00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:39,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's not as frequent. You usually have better tearing. 1020 00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:42,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, right, this year, it's like everyone's everyone has their 1021 00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:45,400 Speaker 2: pluses and everyone has their holes. There's not just that 1022 00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:47,600 Speaker 2: one team that's super team. You're like, oh, if they 1023 00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:50,040 Speaker 2: get hot, nobody can beat them. Because even if you 1024 00:48:50,080 --> 00:48:51,719 Speaker 2: look at the Dodgers, if they get hot, there's still 1025 00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:54,000 Speaker 2: some holes there that you think you can exploit as 1026 00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:56,480 Speaker 2: a team. So but then again, if another team gets 1027 00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:58,440 Speaker 2: on and they take out the Dodgers, the Phillies or 1028 00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:00,360 Speaker 2: the Mets or the you can make a you just 1029 00:49:00,440 --> 00:49:02,440 Speaker 2: could make a compelling argument for. 1030 00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:04,799 Speaker 1: All these people that's wrong. 1031 00:49:05,200 --> 00:49:06,640 Speaker 2: I thought you had a bug on your shoulder, so 1032 00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:07,600 Speaker 2: I was going to help you. I have. 1033 00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:09,960 Speaker 1: Usually it's kind of something you're probably used to seeing at. 1034 00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:11,120 Speaker 2: This Did you get eaten by a lot of people? 1035 00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:13,600 Speaker 1: I do. It's weird, you see it, right, there's proof. 1036 00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:18,560 Speaker 1: I don't know what it is for me, And I 1037 00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:21,919 Speaker 1: know someone might have mentioned I didn't mention Houston. We're 1038 00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:23,560 Speaker 1: talking about all the teams in the playoffs when I 1039 00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:25,080 Speaker 1: was just benched, Houston. 1040 00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:28,400 Speaker 2: Seattle, all of them. Yeah, I mean the Cubs. You 1041 00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:29,719 Speaker 2: can make a case of the Cubs to win. 1042 00:49:30,040 --> 00:49:30,239 Speaker 1: Yep. 1043 00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:31,880 Speaker 2: You can make a case for the Brewers. You can 1044 00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:34,200 Speaker 2: make a case for the Phillies. You can make case 1045 00:49:34,239 --> 00:49:35,640 Speaker 2: of the match. You can make fase of the Potters. 1046 00:49:35,680 --> 00:49:37,360 Speaker 2: You make case of the Dodgers. American League can go 1047 00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:42,040 Speaker 2: all right through them, Tigers, Yankees, Red Sox, Blue Jays, 1048 00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:45,480 Speaker 2: Astros and Mariners. All twelve teams that are going to 1049 00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:46,960 Speaker 2: get in the postseason. You can make case they can 1050 00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:47,719 Speaker 2: all win the World Series. 1051 00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:50,839 Speaker 1: That's why it's so tough for AJ to put together 1052 00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:52,080 Speaker 1: as power rankings. Crats. 1053 00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:54,240 Speaker 2: So those are the twelve boom run them down. 1054 00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:58,680 Speaker 3: In that order. You heard it here first, AJ order, 1055 00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:01,080 Speaker 3: put them in order. Write it down, Claude. 1056 00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:09,719 Speaker 1: She's busy. See it's working hard behind the scenes, and 1057 00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:11,200 Speaker 1: not even big days. 1058 00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:11,919 Speaker 3: Big days. 1059 00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:18,719 Speaker 1: By the way, we're back in studio on Friday.
