It's just funny 28 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:20,520 Speaker 4: about how little. I'm sure David Seerns watched the Mets 29 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:24,039 Speaker 4: game today because then the first inning, what no, stop. 30 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 1: No, this is not about us. The Cardinals got blazed 31 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: Jordan for Stephen Matts. 32 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 4: What oh okay, I mean that's like there's like thirteen 33 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:33,039 Speaker 4: people listening as podcast. 34 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 3: That's gonna make a difference soon. That's good for them. 35 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,320 Speaker 1: That's too much. Wow, okay, whatever, keep going. 36 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 3: Sorry pitching markus crazy. 37 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 4: But first second inning, we get the news that comes 38 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 4: across that the Tyler Rodgers trade happens, and I think 39 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 4: a lot of people flipped immediately because the names in 40 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 4: that trade were big names. Yeah, Mark flip, I flipped 41 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 4: a little bit, you major flipped. Even Gary Cohen did 42 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 4: a little flip on it live television. 43 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 2: I think it was shocking to sometimes we forget that, 44 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 2: like MMB Pipeline, even Baseball America and like all these publications, 45 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 2: like while they're awesome and they give us great prospect news, 46 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 2: that's not necessarily how a a prospect A scene inside 47 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 2: of an organization, and when you break down what the 48 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:10,519 Speaker 2: Mets gave up for Tyler Rogers and you just looking 49 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 2: on a surface level for what we know, right, it 50 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 2: does seem crazy like giving up Drew Gilbert, giving up 51 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 2: Blade Tidwell, and then also giving up pose Buddho for 52 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 2: Tyler Rodgers was a very good reliever, but as a 53 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 2: free agent at the end of the year, that feels 54 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:24,959 Speaker 2: like you gave up a lot, especially because Tidwell and 55 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 2: Gilbert are borderline Major League Baseball players and Buddo has 56 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 2: been a pretty successful reliever this year. But when you 57 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 2: take a little bit of a step back, and I 58 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:33,679 Speaker 2: know that you've done a lot of this recently, and 59 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 2: you've you're trying to get convince the people why this 60 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:37,679 Speaker 2: trade makes a lot of sense, and I'm down to listen. 61 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 2: I want to hear what you got to say. In 62 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 2: the Mets organization, these guys probably don't have the same 63 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 2: value as to what they appear maybe to other organizations. 64 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 3: Definitely not. 65 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 4: And then honestly, they actually might not have them in 66 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 4: other organizations either, because again, you just traded three of 67 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 4: these guys to get one rental reliever. 68 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 3: But I think again, like it happened. 69 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 4: It was kind of like a shock instantly because Drew 70 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 4: Gilbert was part of the Justin Verlander trade. You know, 71 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 4: that's a name that's been around for a while. Blaye 72 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,679 Speaker 4: Tidwell was the second round draft. They both those guys 73 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 4: played college baseball Tennessee. Like those are that's high profile stuff. 74 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 4: And like Jose Boutau we've been talking about for years 75 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 4: on this podcast, he's blossomed like a lot. And we're 76 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 4: gonna talk about a human element the trade deadline also, 77 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 4: like towards the end of this all but those are 78 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 4: just names. But then would you kind of like really 79 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 4: tear it all down on the outskirts in terms of roster, 80 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 4: in terms of process, in terms of players, in terms 81 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 4: of just space and movement like this, It doesn't thinking 82 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 4: about this like after it happened, didn't wind up actually 83 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 4: feeling like the Mets they give up that much. 84 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 3: Like starting with. 85 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 4: Gilbert, and we know Gilbert had a lot of shine, 86 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 4: a lot of it from us. We both Likedrow Gilbert 87 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 4: lots of prospect, but there were some lower body injuries, 88 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 4: there was some soft tissue stuff. There was just there 89 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 4: was a lack of development. Defensively, he was supposed to 90 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 4: be a center field there never actually could be a 91 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 4: center fielder. We're just kind of hoping he was a 92 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 4: corner guy. He is a lefty hither who has good 93 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 4: play disciplint and that's really good, but with middling power. 94 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 4: And we literally just talked about middling power last episode, 95 00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 4: saying like, I know he's hitting better at Triple A, 96 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 4: but there's the thing he's really done to his profiles 97 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 4: and make us think he's actually an impact guy for 98 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 4: the next level anymore. And again, like these things change 99 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 4: a lot in a couple of years. Right now, we 100 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 4: have a guy and Drew Gilbert who's turning twenty five 101 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 4: years old, like a month and a half, two months, 102 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 4: and he's five percent better than league average at Triple 103 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 4: A as a guy who's now a premium defender with 104 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 4: middling power, like that doesn't translate to a major League 105 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 4: Baseball player who's going to get six hundred that bass 106 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 4: to accumulate two three four war over the course of 107 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 4: the seasons. So then and you at the top of 108 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 4: that that he was Rule five eligible this season, and 109 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 4: the Mets have seemed so reluctant to add him to 110 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 4: their forty man roster over the last year plus seems 111 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,040 Speaker 4: like we were giving Travis Jankowski reps on the big 112 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 4: league squad a few like a month or so ago. 113 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 4: Like it does seem like we were doing everything we 114 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,040 Speaker 4: could not to give Drew Gilbert a shot here, and 115 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 4: David Stern still goes to the media like what four 116 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,600 Speaker 4: or five days ago, talks about how great, how much 117 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 4: they seen Drew Gilbert recently, and how how he might 118 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 4: be in a factor in the second half, and just 119 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 4: goes and ships them off. 120 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 3: But it's funny, and we'll. 121 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 4: Talk about the other guys, but like you kind of 122 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 4: peel these things down for a little bit, and he 123 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 4: kind of breaks down to not, oh, the prospect move. 124 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 4: The world moves quick, like much quicker than we talk 125 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 4: about that, much quicker than most of the people that 126 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 4: we read and see talk about them. So I think 127 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,039 Speaker 4: it's just it's important to know that from the outside 128 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 4: perspective that we have. 129 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Drew Gilbert wind up being a very 130 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 2: nice major league based Yeah, at some point, like he's 131 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 2: gonna get on base, he's gonna play corner outfield defense, 132 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,720 Speaker 2: he's gonna make contact, could make it. Yeah, for one 133 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 2: hundred percent is a dog, like that's always one thing 134 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 2: we says, like Drew Gilbert is an absolute dog. But 135 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 2: I think, especially with when you look at what the 136 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 2: Mets have been able to do with prospects recently, I 137 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,599 Speaker 2: think when you look at some of the guys behind 138 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 2: Drew Gilbert as well in their production that they've shown 139 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 2: in the Mets system, it just seems like a guy 140 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 2: who's maybe peak value is not there anymore. Like the 141 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,280 Speaker 2: Mets probably got him close to his peak when they 142 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 2: got him for Justin Verlander, and he just really hasn't 143 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 2: lived up to that hype or value just yet. And 144 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 2: when you can move him along with Blade Tidwell, who's 145 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 2: another guy that And I think when you look at 146 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 2: the system too, they just kind of have these guys 147 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,840 Speaker 2: already that are younger and honestly a little bit better 148 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 2: right now, like cars some benj aj Ewing, like these 149 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 2: guys are just kind of better versions, right yeah, Eli 150 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 2: soron are just kind of better younger versions than Drew Gilbert, 151 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:10,559 Speaker 2: and they don't need to be on the forty man roster. 152 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 2: Of course, there's always this game about how this roster 153 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 2: management and farm system management is gonna go and then 154 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 2: same thing with Blade Tidwell, Like in this farm system, 155 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 2: he's what maybe the sixth seventh best picture in the 156 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,279 Speaker 2: entire farm. So while these are names that we know 157 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,479 Speaker 2: and we feel comfortable with, and we've we've had a 158 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 2: lot of thoughts and oh wow. 159 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: Mariners just got Aujaneo Suarez. Wow, that's big. We're moving 160 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: at midnight, literally midnight. Love that. 161 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 2: But like, as you go through this system and see 162 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 2: what the Mets have been able to do with their 163 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 2: prospects moving up and moving up and all these guys 164 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:46,719 Speaker 2: getting some hype, you see the names like tid Well 165 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 2: and Gilbert falling further and further down, and seems like 166 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 2: one of those situations where, especially because I think this 167 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 2: is really important too, they're not David Sterns guys. These 168 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 2: guys were brought in by Billy Eppler, They're brought in 169 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 2: by previous regimes. They're not David Stearn's prospects. These aren't 170 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 2: necessarily people that he might have even considered drafting or 171 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 2: trading for. I think that also plays a big part 172 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:06,720 Speaker 2: in this too, a huge. 173 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 3: Part of it. 174 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 4: And also it's a conversation with this trade, specifically about 175 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 4: floor versus ceiling. Like there were some like comparisons made 176 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 4: to some of the other trades that were happening over 177 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 4: the course of the day, like the trade that we 178 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 4: talked about on the Trade Deadline episode yesterday with you guys, 179 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 4: the Strengthy Dominguez for I forgot the prospect with three. 180 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 1: Names, the pitcher that with Ron Watts Brown. 181 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 4: Yes, like that's kind of a weird wood Razza situation 182 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 4: where Garron wats Brown seems like he has a much 183 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 4: higher ceiling blows too, a much lower floor than any 184 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 4: of these guys. But it's like here's one lothery ticket 185 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 4: or three kind of nearly capable major leaguers like at 186 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 4: the surface, but you no know what more you're getting. 187 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 4: I think the one guy with it probably is some 188 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 4: genuine ceiling was Blade because he has sat ninety six miles. 189 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 4: Now I know he has a very good sweeper and 190 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 4: a good sinker, but it's kind of like at Blade's 191 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 4: our mangle, which we did why we were to talk 192 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 4: about Blade Tidbill's arm ankle a lot in this podcast, 193 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 4: So who how many podcast talk about Blay Tidbill's arm 194 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 4: angle as much as you and I know? But with 195 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 4: the steepness of his arm angle, it was difficult for 196 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 4: him to give any vertical act swings and missus with 197 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 4: his fastball, and he had bad command. So if you're 198 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 4: not getting swings and missus in the zone and your 199 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 4: command's not good, you need to take two or three 200 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 4: steps forward with your command to actually be an impact 201 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 4: starling pitcher. So it probably just was a few steps 202 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 4: there where they were like, all right, no big deal, because, 203 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 4: like you said, like there are so many pictures we 204 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 4: have knocking down the door. And that's part of this 205 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 4: all too, where it's hard for us as Mets fans 206 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 4: to conceptualize a trade with prospects that we know that 207 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 4: are kind of famous and it not being like a detrimental, 208 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 4: horrible thing because we used to get like three good 209 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 4: prospects every five years as an organization. We didn't have 210 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 4: players development in the last five years for this. 211 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 2: Team, Drew Gilbert will I mean like we used to 212 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 2: parade around Craig Brazel. I feel like back in the 213 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 2: day that was like a big name. I don't think 214 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 2: he ever even made it to the majors. I mean 215 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 2: for Ando Martinez, we've been scored by prospects in the 216 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 2: past before as Mets fans, because we have. 217 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 4: Bad players development, we had lack of depth, we had 218 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 4: bad process. But now that you have good process and 219 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 4: good players development, every single year, we're just drafting demons 220 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 4: and converting them into like highly functional minor league baseball players. 221 00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 4: You have to be thinking forward about like how this 222 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 4: roster crunch happens, and seen how aggressive that David Starts 223 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 4: has been with some of the better prospects in the system, 224 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 4: promoting him up a level, up level. Carson ben right 225 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 4: now is deshrowing double a mexicy Carson bench in the 226 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 4: major leagues next season. 227 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 2: So it's just like, let's see Carson Benge up in 228 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:13,680 Speaker 2: Triple A taking Drew Gilbert's spot. 229 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 4: Soon literally ends in with Jill and Talk taking play 230 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:17,679 Speaker 4: Tedbell spowned Triple A, and the Met's also showed their 231 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,839 Speaker 4: hand with Blaye Teddell this year, basically saying that we're 232 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:21,439 Speaker 4: giving him these reps because we don't really know what 233 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 4: we see in him long term. We're not giving this 234 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 4: to sprot and McLain because we think that they're actually 235 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 4: starting pitchers. So it's kind of just like having the 236 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 4: foresight knowing how many other prospects are there. How crowd 237 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:32,959 Speaker 4: this is getting, how crowd the forty men roster is 238 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 4: going to get in a few years. This is the 239 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 4: kind of problems that seems like the Brewers and the 240 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 4: Dodgers and the Rays have over the years, because I 241 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 4: know we have too many good players. The forty man roster, 242 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 4: it's a jump ball before you get to that Rule 243 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:45,439 Speaker 4: five draft. So I think that that's a big part 244 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 4: of it. I just don't think that they saw much 245 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:48,439 Speaker 4: of future for these guys. So at that point's like, 246 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 4: I can clear some space and I can get right 247 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 4: now one of the most functionally dominant relievers in baseball, 248 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 4: for which he is like, sign me up for that 249 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 4: in a second. 250 00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, Tyler Rodgers is really good. 251 00:09:58,960 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 3: Yea. 252 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:01,199 Speaker 2: I think we've seen it as Mets fans in a 253 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 2: few times that we get to play the Dodgers. I 254 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 2: feel like he always comes in and just giants. 255 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: My bad. That was a Freudian slip there. 256 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,559 Speaker 2: But uh, like every time we see him, it's like, 257 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:11,880 Speaker 2: we can't hit this guy and the stuff is disgusting. 258 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 2: And he's the most unique pitcher in Major League Baseball. 259 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 2: There's no doubt, there's no one that looks like him. 260 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 2: There's no one that throws like him. He throws like 261 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 2: a rising slide. 262 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,079 Speaker 4: There's one person that looks like him. Well, oh yeah, 263 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:22,319 Speaker 4: his twin brother, his swim. 264 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 2: Brother like physically looks like him. Doesn't look like him, 265 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 2: Pittrick was. Isn't it crazy? They're identical twins and one 266 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 2: throws left hand and one throws right handed? 267 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:31,839 Speaker 1: Submarine? How does that even happen? And they both got 268 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: traded on the same day. 269 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 4: But yeah, I do think that Rogers because he's so 270 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 4: weird and because he throws like a lifty slider from 271 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 4: up either hand. 272 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 2: What you mentioned it on the last podcast with the 273 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 2: trade thing, You're like, I think the Mets are gonna 274 00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 2: get a weird arm angle somewhere. 275 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 1: They got it. 276 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 4: That's a good boy to say that, because Gregor Stola 277 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 4: was near the word of the arm angles, like, I 278 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 4: think we're going to get another one. It's also funny 279 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 4: we got Hels, he's one of the most upright throwers 280 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 4: in the league, and Tyler Rodgers, who's literally the most 281 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 4: submarine guy. But Rodgers, if you go back three five years, 282 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:58,440 Speaker 4: like one of Low's the ra's men relieve in the league. 283 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 4: One of the low swis from the highest grounball m 284 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 4: It's like this guy is soft contact king, soft contact 285 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 4: King of all Kings, like, but he's just super nails, 286 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:06,840 Speaker 4: like you starting eighty three mile an hour sinkers. He's 287 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 4: not really getting swings and miss he's not getting ay strikecouts. 288 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 4: But he's just a weird He's a very uncomfortable, strange 289 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 4: at bat. And could you imagine like an eighth to 290 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 4: ninth ending mix up when you are like, if you 291 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:18,319 Speaker 4: do Hellsley seven, Rogers eight, edwind Ds nine, these guys 292 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,439 Speaker 4: are like, wellonder what the fuck is going on right now? 293 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 4: And you mix into Greg Russola from the side, Like 294 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 4: it's just there's a lot of different stuff we have 295 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 4: right now, Like this bullpen's taken seven eight nine steps 296 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:29,959 Speaker 4: forward in one day, and I think that we can 297 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,560 Speaker 4: constantly say we didn't give up any super impact prospects 298 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 4: to get us to this point. 299 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 2: No, the way that this bullpen looks after these two 300 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 2: trades feels kind of awesome, like really really awesome. And 301 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,200 Speaker 2: Ken Rosenthal went on Foul Territory and talked about it. 302 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 2: Everyone who's talking about all these trades going on right 303 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 2: now They're like the Mets made. 304 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 1: Like a huge, huge push here. 305 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 2: This is a like team changing couple moves, especially because 306 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:55,839 Speaker 2: you look at the bullpen and that was a weak 307 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 2: spot for this team. There was no doubt that has 308 00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 2: been absolute chaos for the last month and a half. 309 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:01,839 Speaker 2: When you know the Mets have not been performing well 310 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 2: for the last month and a half, haven't been to 311 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 2: that same standard. Now you get guys seven eight nine 312 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:11,320 Speaker 2: or six seven eight nine like Ryan Stannick, Reed, Garrett Brooks, 313 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 2: Rayley Gregory, so those guys don't have to come in 314 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 2: now in the seventh, eighth, and ninth inning every single 315 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 2: time that line to get to Edwin Diaz is so 316 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 2: much stronger and so much deeper. I really love what 317 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 2: David Stertns did here, and again I was hurt trading 318 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 2: Jose Buddo. I think there was a little more personal 319 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,559 Speaker 2: connection to with Buddho, just because we've been believers in 320 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 2: him literally since like the first episode of this podcast 321 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 2: when we started talking about prospecting like this, Jose Buddho 322 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,440 Speaker 2: guy might make a little impact for this team. So 323 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 2: you know, tip the cap to Jose Buddho a little 324 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 2: respect there. But sad to see him go in retrospect 325 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 2: after being able to think about this trade for a while, 326 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 2: I think the Giant I think the Giants got really 327 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 2: good value for Tyler Rogers, and I also think the 328 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,680 Speaker 2: Mets got a really good player in without hurting the 329 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 2: rest of the team for the future moving forward. 330 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think Twitter culture demands someone being like this 331 00:12:58,520 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 4: was a fleece. 332 00:12:59,080 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 3: That was a fleece. 333 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 4: There's just a lot of these trades are just good trades, 334 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 4: Like it's just kind of how it works a. 335 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,679 Speaker 1: Lot of time and the former New York Met Paul 336 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,079 Speaker 1: Gervais to this Los Angeles Dodgers. 337 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 3: Oh that's a nightmare. 338 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: In that three team trade with the Rays and Rents. 339 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 1: He's gonna he's gonna get big outs in the postseason. 340 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 3: It's such a nightmare. 341 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 4: But I've talked about Bouteou for a second, like this 342 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 4: is this will always be a Jsey Butteau podcast, like 343 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 4: Cose Buttou hell. 344 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 3: Build thisay like it is a personal connection. 345 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:22,719 Speaker 4: And it's just it's cool to see a guy like 346 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 4: him who Cam's organization for nothing as a teenager works 347 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,199 Speaker 4: his way up, grinds his way through the ever never 348 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,199 Speaker 4: was on these prospect lists, got big outs for the 349 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 4: Mets in a huge season for them last year, where 350 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:35,839 Speaker 4: Jose Plutou doesn't have a strange hot stretch as a 351 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 4: starting pitcher in April, Mets don't. 352 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:38,160 Speaker 3: Make the playoffs. 353 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 4: You know, I mean, if he doesn't get big outs 354 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 4: in July at the bullpen, the Mets don't make the playoffs. 355 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 4: I know, he didn't pitch very well in the playoffs, 356 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 4: like there was something's happening there. His slider is very inconsistent. 357 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 4: He still could be a good believer in this league. 358 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 4: He'd probably even be okay star there. But it's just 359 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 4: at this at this juncture, making this transition from good 360 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 4: baseball team to team gunning for a World Series, it 361 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:58,560 Speaker 4: was going to be hard to fit him on the 362 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 4: on the playoff roster, similar to how it was last year, 363 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:02,959 Speaker 4: Like he was fringy, like you could you there was 364 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 4: a way you could have convinced me in a month 365 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 4: that I would take Rico graciover Jose Button to the 366 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:08,440 Speaker 4: playoff roster. But at the same time, it is still 367 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,719 Speaker 4: just like seeing his emotions stay leaving that field, like 368 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 4: Jose Zada putting his hand on his arm around him 369 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 4: in the bullpen, like see him kind of like get 370 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:17,839 Speaker 4: a little teary and like run away and then come 371 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 4: back and give people hugs, the dugout and then also 372 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 4: probably be on the plane with the Mets going back 373 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 4: to New York because the Giants are coming into town 374 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 4: this weekend. 375 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, how do you think that works? 376 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 2: Do you think jose Bhuttou flew back with the Mets 377 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 2: and Taylor Roger Taylor, Roger Tyler, I keep calling him Taylor. 378 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 1: That's gonna be a really bad thing. 379 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 2: Tyler Rodgers flew back to New York with the Giants, 380 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 2: Like or. 381 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 1: Did they they end up? Did they? 382 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 5: Did? 383 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: They switch cities real quick and then they flew with 384 00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: the team. 385 00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 2: Like that's such a weird connection because these two teams 386 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 2: are playing each other after just playing each other last weekend. 387 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 1: It's so strange. 388 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 4: Shout out to the major league schedule. But again, like 389 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 4: that's like we kind of forget that a lot of times. 390 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 4: These are the human beings as well as like incredibly talented, 391 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 4: high profile athletes. 392 00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 3: Like that does suck. 393 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,520 Speaker 4: He'd been one team, even even Rogers of the jobs 394 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 4: the Giants as they dressed him in twenty thirteen, Like, 395 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 4: these are two guys the only things they've ever known 396 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 4: their lives is these organizations that they played for, So 397 00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 4: that part of it is crazy. But then I think 398 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 4: the other trade to me was much more exciting anyway. 399 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 4: And then we want to get to another way. We 400 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 4: want to stay chronological, but pulland Ryan Helsley. That was 401 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 4: the less fucking God moment, Like that was the now 402 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 4: we're playing And the timing of it was beautiful because 403 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 4: there were still some colorful conversations going on about the 404 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:28,120 Speaker 4: Mets perceived overpay for Tyler Rodgers. And then the Phillies 405 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 4: drop a huge hammer of their own, acquiring y'alland ran 406 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 4: from the Twins for mick Abel and ward of Tate, 407 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 4: which I think we'll get to that one in a second. 408 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 4: Tate tight tight, Oh yeah tight. So then it was 409 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 4: like people freaking out the Mets. You were like this 410 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 4: sucks to the Mets. You were like, bullshit, yeah it does. 411 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 4: But then twelve thirteen minutes later we get the notification 412 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 4: Ken Rosenthal that the Mets acquire Ryan Helsley. 413 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 3: That was like, holy shit. 414 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 4: That was like the at that point, like as a 415 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 4: as a baseball fan, like the blood should be rushing 416 00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 4: through you veins. You should get the adrenaline, like, oh, 417 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 4: we are going like this is the window. The window 418 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 4: is open now. 419 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 2: My My funny thing I'm gonna say is like, do 420 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 2: you remember where you were for the Ryan Helsley trade? 421 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 1: Because I know where I was. 422 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 2: I was at a like soire event for U social 423 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 2: media people out in Brooklyn and they were doing giving 424 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 2: some crazy talk on a panel about like AI or something. 425 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 2: I was super non interested. I tuned out completely. I 426 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 2: get the notification of my phone. I'm freaking out. Someone 427 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 2: walks to the back seas me. They're like, you're tweet 428 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 2: about Ryan Helsey right, like you just saw that trade. 429 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 2: I was again side did He's like love the podcast, 430 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 2: so shout out to him. Appreciate that little bump of 431 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 2: confidence as well as being out in public there and 432 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 2: then James has called me, I can't I can't talk. 433 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 1: We can't talk right now. We gotta save this for 434 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 1: the podcast. 435 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 2: It's awesome. That's so sick. We've been wanting Ryan Helsy 436 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 2: for a while, and honestly. 437 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 1: I didn't know how realistic it was for the Mets 438 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 1: to get Hellsley specifically. I think that they were going 439 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 1: to go after an eighth inning guy. 440 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 2: Like in that kind of Helsley Duran Jack's kind of range, 441 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 2: But I didn't know if it was gonna be Helsley specifically. 442 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 1: I love that it is though. He's so good. 443 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 4: I mean, he was one of the first guys we 444 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:04,200 Speaker 4: talked about in yesterday's episode just about all the players 445 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 4: that we wanted to target in trades. I think he 446 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 4: was literally the second player we talked about in that 447 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 4: after Louis Robert, and I think there's still a good 448 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 4: chance that Mets still acquired Louis Robert before the deadline 449 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 4: on Thursdays. We'll keep an eye on that it's officially 450 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 4: deadline day. Seeing that seven thirty one on the calendar 451 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 4: is incredible. But this is awesome. This is the best 452 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 4: Mets ballpen I can remember. Ryan Helsley is a demon. 453 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:26,880 Speaker 4: He throws one hundred miles an hour with a nasty slide. 454 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 4: Ryan Helsley also, I've talked about a few times in 455 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 4: the show this year, he was having an issue with 456 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 4: the cut on his four seamed fastball because during the 457 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:36,119 Speaker 4: offseason he wanted a little new wrinkle, a little something new, 458 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 4: so we developed a color. But throwing that color as 459 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 4: someone who was so over the top. It just threw 460 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 4: with so much for the collection, with so much philosophy, 461 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 4: that color made this fastball cut too much. Now we 462 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:46,719 Speaker 4: stopped throwing the cover. The fastball is now reverted back. 463 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 4: It's been nice important change for him. It's got the 464 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 4: commands been back. He's been able to keep that ball 465 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 4: in the yard more. And it's just he's awesome. He's 466 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:55,920 Speaker 4: a fantastic reliever. I think pound for pound I've laid 467 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:58,359 Speaker 4: said this to you guys yesterday when the ten twelve 468 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 4: best relievers in the entire sport, I can say that confidently, 469 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:02,920 Speaker 4: and just another guy through was one hundred miles an hour, 470 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:06,119 Speaker 4: which we just love having his bullpen. I know, David. 471 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:09,439 Speaker 4: This is also a funny part of this. I know 472 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:10,880 Speaker 4: that David Stearns had a lot of those good teams 473 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 4: in Milwaukee. I know that David Stearns did make a 474 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:15,439 Speaker 4: good slow of win now moves. This feels like the 475 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:17,439 Speaker 4: first time at David Stearns has thrown a bit of 476 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 4: his inhibitions to the wind, and it is like I'm 477 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:19,919 Speaker 4: fucking going for it. 478 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:21,920 Speaker 1: Like this is like a Mets fan a little bit 479 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 1: that right now. 480 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 4: This is the first time we've seen I think this 481 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:26,679 Speaker 4: version of David Stearns as an executive the first time 482 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:28,680 Speaker 4: he might have seen this version of himself as an executive. 483 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 4: So anyway like this is this seems like a whole 484 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 4: new world for him. 485 00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 2: I also like to with Helsy the fact that he 486 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 2: has the closing experience. So does Tyler Rodgers sneaky like 487 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:40,920 Speaker 2: had like fifteen saves one year back with the Giants. 488 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,359 Speaker 4: Both have playoff experience as well. Both have playoff experience. 489 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:45,640 Speaker 2: These are guys who if Edwin Diaz has been used 490 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 2: two days in a row, we don't have to push 491 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:48,879 Speaker 2: him for a third day. You can use Edwin dy 492 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 2: As in the eighth inning. Let's say you have some big, 493 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,359 Speaker 2: big hitters coming up, like in the Phillies and u 494 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 2: Soto already in a game, and you have Hartburn Schworber 495 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:56,679 Speaker 2: coming up. 496 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 1: In the eighth. 497 00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 2: You could go Diaz in the eighth. You have Helsey 498 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 2: for the ninth, you could go to Tyler Rodgers. You 499 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 2: could go health like the creativity now that the Mets 500 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 2: can have at the end of the bowl. At the 501 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:06,159 Speaker 2: end of the game, I obviously still want Edwin did 502 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 2: as the ninth inning guy getting the final outs but 503 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,640 Speaker 2: they can be smart about this. Now they can be strategic. 504 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:14,119 Speaker 2: Where in the past when Edwin Diaz wasn't available, you're like, 505 00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 2: how the how the hell is this game gonna be? 506 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 2: How are we gonna finish this game? Like we saw 507 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 2: Watscar Brasebon get multiple appearances in the ninth then and 508 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 2: give up nukes like that was a guy we were 509 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 2: going to. Now we got Elsley and Tyler Rodgers' other options. 510 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:25,359 Speaker 1: That's huge. 511 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 4: And again I did mention that Hellesley has isn't ha 512 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 4: problems with lefties, but just as a fastball slider guy, 513 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:32,399 Speaker 4: it's like he's better to face the right these he 514 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:34,639 Speaker 4: was working on that color he is Most people too neutral, 515 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:36,480 Speaker 4: as all of these guys kind of are now like 516 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:39,160 Speaker 4: he's he's not. There's not a pronounced Ryan Helsey lefty 517 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 4: problems between him, Diaz and Tyler Rodgers and Reed Garrett. 518 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 4: Those are four your four highest leverage pitchers could all 519 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 4: very comfortably get out of hitters from both sides of 520 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 4: the plate. Like it is, it's a strong fucking bullpen. 521 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,440 Speaker 4: Like looking around the other contenders in the National League, 522 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:56,160 Speaker 4: it's the Dodgers aren't a full health and we don't 523 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 4: know if they're going to be a full health. 524 00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 3: With Tanner Scott and Michael Kopek. 525 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:02,160 Speaker 4: Like, I think the Padres definitely still have the best bullpen, 526 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,679 Speaker 4: but besides them, I think in the National League, I take. 527 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 3: Ours right now. 528 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 2: Mets are definitely up there and Duran Holston Philly is 529 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:09,359 Speaker 2: a lot sit. 530 00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:10,160 Speaker 3: We could talk about that. 531 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:13,119 Speaker 2: Yes, classic David Surtins. Though bullpen's not gonna look the 532 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:14,440 Speaker 2: same at the beginning of the year as it does 533 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 2: at the end of the year. The Mets have Edwin Diaz, 534 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 2: Ryan Stanek, and Reed Garrett from the bullpen. At the 535 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,199 Speaker 2: beginning of the year, everybody else were not guys on 536 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 2: this roster. That's kind of awesome. 537 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:26,720 Speaker 4: Even two weeks ago, most of these guys weren't on 538 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 4: the roster within ten days, but Brooks Raley came back 539 00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:31,720 Speaker 4: from injury, Rico Garcia who is DFA, we re picked 540 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 4: up greg Orisolo trade, Tyler Rodgers trade, Ryan Helsey trades 541 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 4: like this is and Kris Devinski we also resigned him 542 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 4: after he was caught as well. So it's just the 543 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 4: constant bullpen churn has now come into something that's a 544 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:45,120 Speaker 4: little bit more cohesive and strategic and I also think 545 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:46,879 Speaker 4: that some of the language has come out from some 546 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:48,399 Speaker 4: of the report there's about these Mets trades. Now the 547 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 4: teams around the league is relevant as well. The Mets 548 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 4: sank specifically, like this is a two year window they 549 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:55,200 Speaker 4: know is a really good chance to win the World Series. 550 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:57,199 Speaker 4: The thing that's happening at the end of two years, 551 00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,360 Speaker 4: like the Bardian Agreement is expiring, and there are early 552 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 4: murmurs about that horrible L word lockout. Rob Manford's gone 553 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 4: around the league doing his little bullshit community engagement with 554 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 4: Bryce Harpertealton the fuck himself they had and Max Schurz's 555 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:10,880 Speaker 4: like he hasn't talked to me yet. 556 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:11,880 Speaker 3: I can't wait to hear that one. 557 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 4: But yeah, trying to beg these players to take less 558 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 4: money so the billionaire owners can pocket more of their profits. 559 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:20,840 Speaker 4: Bob nothing salary dumping to Bob Castellini inside his own division, 560 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 4: that's just like you should you should really pack it 561 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:24,640 Speaker 4: up and leave talent after that one, Bud. But we'll 562 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:26,919 Speaker 4: probably talk about that more later on off season wherever. 563 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 4: But this, I do think there's a feeling around the 564 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 4: league right now. And he saw us with the Phillies trade, 565 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 4: like the tit is a fantastic prospect. He's there's some 566 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:36,640 Speaker 4: places like Baseball Perspectives who are a little bit more 567 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 4: aggressive with trades and tools. He was nearly a top 568 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 4: fifty guy for them their last update, and he he's 569 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 4: someone that profiles similarly to how Francisco al for his 570 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 4: profile when he was an eighteen nineteen year olds. Like 571 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 4: that's the kind of prospect ceiling in heally and that 572 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 4: Tite has. And then but then you have to look 573 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 4: at like he's never going to play a game at 574 00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:57,159 Speaker 4: Zach Wheeler with the wise he on this team, like 575 00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 4: Widow's going to happen in two or. 576 00:21:58,280 --> 00:21:59,679 Speaker 3: Three years, Like get him out of that, let's just 577 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 3: go World Series idea. 578 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 1: He's never gonna play a game with Zack Wheeler. 579 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 3: No, he's not. 580 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,119 Speaker 4: Do you think he's everyone. He's gonna play Game Kosh Warber, 581 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 4: you might play Game prez Arbist. So it's like we 582 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,160 Speaker 4: who the fuck is? Like the cat Mouse game between 583 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 4: the Mets and Phillies was a fun little supplied this 584 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 4: whole thing. I think that it's just just a fun, 585 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,239 Speaker 4: fun day, even though the Mets got pistol whipped by 586 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 4: the podcast. 587 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:20,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean listen that it really helped me forget 588 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 2: about how absolutely awful this series was from the start 589 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 2: to finish. I mean, it was just kind of I 590 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 2: shouldn't say start to finish, from like the. 591 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 3: From the fifth inning on Monday, Yeah. 592 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 2: To the finish of it, it was like absolute hell. 593 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 2: And I hate playing in San Diego. I feel like 594 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 2: chaos always goes on when we go there. And then 595 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 2: of course, like you Darvish, the corpse that is you 596 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:43,119 Speaker 2: Darvish rolls out of bed fucking early and just dominates 597 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 2: the Mets today. 598 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:46,440 Speaker 4: And even before we start talking a little bit about 599 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 4: the series, we haven't mentioned that all the returns for 600 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,239 Speaker 4: Ry Helstey because you're so excited about Ryan Helsey. It's 601 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,359 Speaker 4: Hayes who Spies who has been a favorite of this podcast, 602 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 4: along with Nate Dome another picture I like a lot, 603 00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 4: and Frank Elsol, someone who I know that some of 604 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:01,920 Speaker 4: them more dating Klin people. The Mets community was talking 605 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:03,879 Speaker 4: to guy Jack Benne for a while today about these trades. 606 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 4: He was like, he's my favorite sleeper in the system. 607 00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:05,879 Speaker 1: I know. 608 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:09,120 Speaker 4: M j D Mikey analyis's baseball perspectus m j D Analysis. 609 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,400 Speaker 4: Mikey said the same thing about the assault, like he's 610 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 4: these are these are kind of the embarrassment of riches, 611 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 4: though you have in your team that does things right. 612 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:18,200 Speaker 4: Alis Sault was like a seventeenth round pick at a 613 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 4: Division two and now he's an interesting pitcher who actually 614 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 4: looks like he could have even the most ceiling of 615 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:24,919 Speaker 4: the prospects in that trade. Like you're allowed to do 616 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 4: these trades when you're drafting and developing better than basically 617 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:29,119 Speaker 4: than most teams in the league. 618 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:33,119 Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I think for the Mets to Bias is 619 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 2: a legit prospect. 620 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 1: He's the one where you. 621 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 2: Go, he's inside the Mets probably top ten guys in 622 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 2: their form. 623 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:39,639 Speaker 3: System right on that boarder. 624 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:43,440 Speaker 4: But I think that Bias he was very meteoric last 625 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 4: year and this year it's been like a half a 626 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 4: step back or at least a step sideways because he's 627 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 4: the tears meniscus. Yeah, when the player, any athlete, tears 628 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,200 Speaker 4: their meniscus a serious injury. We're seeing Joel and be 629 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:53,520 Speaker 4: Egle through the meniscus. 630 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 3: Tough right now. 631 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:55,640 Speaker 4: Like the meniscus is a tough it's a tough recovery. 632 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 4: So a guy like Bia is that that changes the ceiling, 633 00:23:58,040 --> 00:23:59,959 Speaker 4: and it changes the floor. When that you're dealing with that, 634 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 4: you don't really show another step. And the ex of loss, 635 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 4: he's kind of plateau. It's like, Okay, you probably wind 636 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 4: there just being another right handed tweiner to the next level. 637 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:08,399 Speaker 4: And then again, he's a guy liked a lot, but 638 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:09,880 Speaker 4: that this guy sucks and guys get hurt. 639 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 3: But just you get you get. You gotta get a 640 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 3: guy like Grin Halsey if you want to really compete 641 00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:14,480 Speaker 3: in the National League. 642 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:14,480 Speaker 2: You do. 643 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:15,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. 644 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,119 Speaker 2: And for the Mets, who need to make sure they 645 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,399 Speaker 2: win every single game they possibly can, making sure that 646 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,240 Speaker 2: we keep those leads that we have late in the game, 647 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 2: super important. Sick sick moves by the Mets today. Well 648 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:27,560 Speaker 2: done by David Stearns. And I don't think he's done yet. 649 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. 650 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 2: I don't think he's gonna go get another picture by 651 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 2: any means. I wouldn't be shocked if it's another reliever, 652 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 2: maybe even two. 653 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 4: But Tyler Locklear back to Arizona and the Asuirez trade, 654 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 4: that's it. Yeah, And and two pitching prospects. 655 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:41,160 Speaker 3: I don't have names on them yet. 656 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 2: Okay, because Tyler Locklear, I don't know I know it's 657 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 2: a big, somewhat ish prospect, but I don't I. 658 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:49,040 Speaker 1: Don't really care about that one. If I'm someone that 659 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 1: was the big piece. 660 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 4: It looks like, I mean, there could be definitely again, 661 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 4: like similar to discussion we're having here, pictures that we 662 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 4: don't know their names are probably nasty and that Mariners 663 00:24:58,400 --> 00:24:59,719 Speaker 4: you know in the Mariners system. 664 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's kind of what this comes down to. 665 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 4: But just I mean, even just to quickly talk about 666 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 4: the series again, because even maybe a series like this 667 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 4: is a way of call for David Stearns being like, 668 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,119 Speaker 4: all right, Padres are a team we could very clearly 669 00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:11,880 Speaker 4: match you up against the postseason, whether it be three 670 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,080 Speaker 4: games of City Field, three games San Diego, or five game, 671 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 4: seven games, whoever it may be, that's a team that's 672 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 4: going to be there. And you kind of got smacked, 673 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 4: kind of got smacked. Good, you didn't really you didn't 674 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 4: really have that many good moments in the series after that, 675 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:27,120 Speaker 4: Mark Fianto's Grand Slam again on Monday night. But yeah, 676 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 4: the mid that mess did not deliver in this one. 677 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 4: I guess a midnight Mets trade right now during this 678 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 4: podcast would actually be incredible, But. 679 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 2: I'd love to hear about the Louis Robert trade coming 680 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:39,240 Speaker 2: in also angry comments right now because I want Louis Robert. 681 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 6: Oh. 682 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 4: I figured we would spend some of the latter part 683 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,440 Speaker 4: of the show talking about Louis Robert because I think 684 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 4: now it's like when you make that move. I also 685 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,920 Speaker 4: think that just talking philosophically again, like this is this 686 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:50,119 Speaker 4: the series preview talking about the trade deadline, a series 687 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:53,640 Speaker 4: review talking about the trade deadline. Making these moves, going 688 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:55,880 Speaker 4: this deep in for two relievers, I feel like makes 689 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 4: it more likely the Mets push more chips in. 690 00:25:58,080 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 6: Oh. 691 00:25:58,280 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 1: I super think so. 692 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,160 Speaker 2: And I also think trading Drew Gilbert, who was kind 693 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:04,720 Speaker 2: of like the security blanket just in case maybe you 694 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:06,400 Speaker 2: give him a shot at some point in center field. 695 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 2: Now there's there's no other options in centerfield in this 696 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 2: Mets organization. Right now. It's Tyrone Taylor, it's Jeff McNeil, 697 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:14,480 Speaker 2: and it's if Jose Sier he ever decides to play 698 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 2: baseball again. You kind of like, now it's a legitimate hole. 699 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:21,399 Speaker 2: There's no questions of let's see Drew Gilbert, let's give 700 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:21,880 Speaker 2: him a shot. 701 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:22,880 Speaker 1: He's not here anymore. 702 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,120 Speaker 2: So it's those three guys that can play center field, 703 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 2: and I guess Tankleyacunya because he's on this roster and 704 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:29,640 Speaker 2: you did to play center field the other day but. 705 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 3: Didn't He did sneak in there? 706 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:32,119 Speaker 1: Did sneak in there? And I feel like that was 707 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:39,919 Speaker 1: for some trade stuff, like, hey, I can playtle. 708 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 2: Wi mayorfield, he could play center. I I think maybe 709 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 2: I was a little aggresive. I think I texted you 710 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:45,639 Speaker 2: David Seerns trades for Luis Robert before he goes to 711 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:49,239 Speaker 2: sleep tonight. Maybe that doesn't happen, But I really I 712 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 2: feel so. 713 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 1: Confident he's gonna be on this team by the end 714 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: of the deadline. 715 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 4: I really do too, but I don't I don't want 716 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:55,440 Speaker 4: to get ahead of myself because also I. 717 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:58,479 Speaker 3: Think that another big reason who else do you think 718 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 3: is going after Luce Robert? I can than one team, yes. 719 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 2: Phillies, And then I I'll never count out the Dodgers, Yeah, 720 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 2: because they could always use an actual outfielder not named 721 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 2: Michael Confordo right now. 722 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean Pie has has been good, he's been 723 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:14,120 Speaker 3: cold for the last month and a half. 724 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 2: But Robert doesn't even need to play center field. He 725 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 2: could play a corner like, no, he'll play center field. 726 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 4: Yes, but I'm saying, like if they will think he will, 727 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 4: I'm saying he will play cunerfield. Pie is in the 728 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:25,320 Speaker 4: corner I think they wore I mean today late in 729 00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 4: the game, I was cover from the game for NBC Sports, 730 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 4: A crazy game that the Dodgers lost to the Reds 731 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 4: ten eleven pitch battle between Spencer Steer and Machi and 732 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 4: with two guys on in a tie game, and then 733 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,640 Speaker 4: in the middle of that battle, Steer puts the pop 734 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 4: up into the tiny bit of foul territory down the 735 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 4: leftfield line Cincinnati, because they brought it out into play. 736 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 4: Center Pie has to kind of misreads the ball. I 737 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,200 Speaker 4: think most of the centerfield he doesn't deal with that 738 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:48,239 Speaker 4: many side walls. He jumps into the wall, but then 739 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:50,120 Speaker 4: leans back and he hits the ball clanks off his glove. 740 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,920 Speaker 4: A few pitches later is when Spear Steer hit the ball. 741 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 4: But Steer's ball should have been through Red Homer, but 742 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,439 Speaker 4: James Allman went Superman above the fence and clanked the 743 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:01,200 Speaker 4: ball off his glove. Just kind of the game winning 744 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:02,159 Speaker 4: double off of two gloves. 745 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 3: Basically, I love it. Pitch at bat but I think 746 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 3: they're in play, but. 747 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 1: Adres are always in play. 748 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 4: I guess right. I kind of think it is more 749 00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 4: so more realistically MC meets versus Phillies. But the Mets more, 750 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 4: Mets have more chips. 751 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:18,680 Speaker 1: Mets have more. It depends what the White Sox want. 752 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 2: If they want major league player chips, yes, the Mets 753 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 2: have more chips. If they want prospects, The Phillies, I think, 754 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,440 Speaker 2: are more likely to give up one of the big 755 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 2: prospects of the Mets. 756 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:29,360 Speaker 4: I don't know if that's true. Why do you think 757 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:31,240 Speaker 4: that the Phillies don't have as many high level I mean, 758 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:33,359 Speaker 4: Phillies have Justin Crawford and Aden Miller. 759 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:34,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think they would move one of those 760 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 2: guys if that was the case. Maybe, if that's he 761 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 2: doesn't care, he's trying to win a World Series again, 762 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 2: like you said, there's two years left. Neither of those 763 00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 2: guys played with Bryce Harbor or Zach Miller orcular Maybe, 764 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 2: but like that kind of is I don't. 765 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 4: I just every single day I talk myself more and 766 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 4: more into Luis Robert I was looking at some advanced data. 767 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 4: If for Louis Roberts today, like his swing decisions have 768 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 4: been the best of his entire career. In aggressive in 769 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 4: the zone, his chase rates down. 770 00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 2: It's like the White Sox were like, hey, hey, buddy, 771 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 2: we're gonna trade you this week, did you play well? 772 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 2: He's again, I'll turn it on. He starts playing hard, 773 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:06,320 Speaker 2: and he starts playing incredibly well. This was jass Chisholm 774 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,520 Speaker 2: last year. Remember he turned it on like a few 775 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 2: weeks for the trade deadline to let show people what 776 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 2: he had. Like, I think there's no doubt that when 777 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 2: Luis Robert is traded, you do see a great baseball 778 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 2: player on the other side of that deal. Like, I 779 00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 2: think that's basically given end. The Mets did really telegraph 780 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 2: their their opinions on their center field situation in the 781 00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 2: the Tuesday game when one Soda went out with an injury, 782 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:26,360 Speaker 2: filed the ball off his foot. 783 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 4: X rays negative. He didn't play in the game. He 784 00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 4: also wasn't available on Wednesday. We got a brief reminder 785 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 4: of what life would have looked like without one so 786 00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:34,280 Speaker 4: though in that game where no one could do anything 787 00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 4: at the plate, he depressed. 788 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 3: It was horrible, but. 789 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 4: He's Tyron Taylor comes in for him and with the 790 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 4: bases lower than one out in the fifth inning of 791 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 4: a that game one nothing in the middle. In the 792 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 4: end of July, they pinched at Starling Martay for Tyrone Taylor, 793 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 4: then makes Darling Martey come and play the outfield. He 794 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,440 Speaker 4: just he kind of like kind of you know, took 795 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:55,440 Speaker 4: on that job after a ball in the Jackson Merrill triple. 796 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 4: But like you kind of saw that we don't want 797 00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 4: Tyrone Taylor taking any meaningful at bats anymore. Like that's 798 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,320 Speaker 4: a clear obvious thing that Carls some does just show us. 799 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 4: So it's to a point where you do kind of 800 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 4: have to. 801 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 3: Make a trade. 802 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:07,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think, I mean it's gonna be Robert 803 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 2: or Cedric Mullins. We've know that Hayman's tweeted that out too, 804 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 2: that the Mets have been linked to Mullins as well, 805 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 2: that they're looking at him and Robert. They've looked at 806 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 2: Loriano a little bit, but they're off of him because 807 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:18,120 Speaker 2: they see him as a corner guy, not really a 808 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 2: center fielder anymore. 809 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:23,000 Speaker 1: I just, man, I really, it's got to be Robert. 810 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: It's got to be that guy. 811 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 2: I know our YouTube comment section is tired of it, 812 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 2: but I'm telling you once he gets here and once 813 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 2: you see how good he's gonna be. Just remember that 814 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 2: we were telling you from from the April, since last year, 815 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 2: whatever it was, how badly we wanted this guy. 816 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 4: Here's another crazy thing happening right now. The A's are 817 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 4: up by two in the ninth inning against the Mariners, 818 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 4: and Mason Miller didn't warm up or come in, and 819 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 4: he wasn't he didn't work on back to back day's 820 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:50,479 Speaker 4: and he didn't really have any big workload things going on. 821 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 4: I mean that means that there's a chance he could 822 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 4: be not moved tonight. That means that he's a little 823 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:58,480 Speaker 4: more available than we maybe think. Also the flips zacly 824 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:00,600 Speaker 4: Tel got traded late at night.

Like, 839 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 4: it's still so much intrigue, so much fun. The Guardians 840 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 4: have to have a full one day, the whole thing. 841 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 1: Eighteen hours, I think at the time of recording. 842 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:37,160 Speaker 4: How mad are the Guardians that with this reliever market, 843 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 4: that emmanue class had to get to get knocked out 844 00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 4: for gambling that the sky, Oh, they gotta be so 845 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 4: pissed about that. Mason Miller has not pitched since in 846 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 4: five days and he and he threw nine pitches in 847 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 4: that appearance and he just didn't warm up in a 848 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 4: save opportunity for the athletics. 849 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 1: That's kind of crazy. 850 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 5: That's kind of crazy. 851 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:54,160 Speaker 4: No more, no more space for relievers than the Mets 852 00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:56,760 Speaker 4: team anymore. I think trading for three relievers is I 853 00:31:56,800 --> 00:32:00,719 Speaker 4: think that payler quota. I mean if Miller, yeah, if 854 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:02,960 Speaker 4: there's if there's a starting pitcher, you think the Mets 855 00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:05,960 Speaker 4: actually could trade for the next day, Who do you 856 00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 4: think of this. 857 00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 1: Sandy. 858 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:13,720 Speaker 3: You think it's Sandy. 859 00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 2: He's awkwardly quiet right now, which makes me think that 860 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 2: the price is they're either asking way too much or 861 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:22,440 Speaker 2: people just really. 862 00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 1: Aren't interested in what they've seen from him so far. 863 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:27,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's part of it. 864 00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 4: But I also think that it's also funny similar to 865 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:32,040 Speaker 4: all these other things, like he has pitched well as 866 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 4: last two times out, Like, I don't think it's been 867 00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 4: anything that's necessarily that different to the Sandy that we've 868 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:38,480 Speaker 4: seen all year. 869 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 3: I still think you get the move. 870 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 4: The further out you get from Sandy al Coontras, Timmy 871 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:46,800 Speaker 4: John Surgery, the better picture you will see. Also at 872 00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 4: the same time, like I for what the Mets need 873 00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 4: right now with someone you want to give the ball 874 00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 4: to one of the first or two games of a 875 00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 4: playoff series, I don't know if he's that. 876 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 3: I just don't. 877 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 4: I just can't confidently say he's that guy. The second Yeah, 878 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 4: I think I think he is a player off pitcher. 879 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 4: I just don't know if he's guy for sure. And 880 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:05,600 Speaker 4: even like looking at his pitch plotform last night, like 881 00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 4: let's let's put this out from my righties and lefties 882 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:10,560 Speaker 4: do good podcasting. Your life, Like the curveball command was better. 883 00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:12,520 Speaker 4: It's if that is better the curveball that I've seen 884 00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:14,520 Speaker 4: him for the most of the season. The change up 885 00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 4: was fine. 886 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:15,280 Speaker 3: I don't know. 887 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 4: Again, maybe this is he it's just the hither version 888 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:19,920 Speaker 4: of the ro Bet Jazz thing. Bulso that Marbles team 889 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,160 Speaker 4: is playing well, that Martin seam. If they if they 890 00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 4: actually had the real version of Sandy, they'd be not 891 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 4: gonna do overplay off spot right now. If Edward care going, 892 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 4: if they had the real version of Sandy al content 893 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 4: right now, they could win the American League. 894 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 1: Oh well, I don't. America's got a Hanio. That's a 895 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:37,400 Speaker 1: legit pick up for them, Like that makes the leg 896 00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:38,520 Speaker 1: very dangerous. 897 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:40,120 Speaker 4: Now, it's just that's just that's just the James and 898 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 4: Marks one per episode fucking with the American League. But 899 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 4: this is just I'm just I'm happy and you didn't 900 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 4: go to the National League team because all the national 901 00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 4: team is the only ones getting better, Like that's a 902 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:52,960 Speaker 4: big deal, And I don't know. It's also we're getting 903 00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 4: that thing that happens this time of year where like 904 00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:57,400 Speaker 4: knocking on some wood with it. But some of the 905 00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 4: teams that are being quiet should not be quiet correct 906 00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 4: to Detroit, where are the Detroit Tigers? Like where are 907 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:04,640 Speaker 4: the Chicago Cops? And then the cups just got mix soroca? 908 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:05,920 Speaker 4: But like, what is going on? 909 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:07,719 Speaker 1: Do we know what the two pitching prospects are yet? 910 00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:10,840 Speaker 1: Because like Tyler Locklear, like Tyler Locklear and like eighteen 911 00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:14,400 Speaker 1: year olds like in the like acl or Dominican Summer League, 912 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:16,879 Speaker 1: Like Tiger's fans got to be throwing a fit if 913 00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:18,720 Speaker 1: that's the case, especially as. 914 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:21,120 Speaker 4: They're in complete pre fault at this given moment, Like 915 00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 4: that's a It's amazing how much we've talked about the 916 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 4: padresers and this episod. 917 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 1: I got it. 918 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:29,400 Speaker 2: It is Hunter Cranton and Juan Burgos are the other prospects. 919 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:32,399 Speaker 2: I'll be honest, not that it matters again, because we don't. 920 00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 2: We're not Marriners guys. Maybe they're guys like we have 921 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:36,760 Speaker 2: in the medsis, but who are these guys? 922 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:40,720 Speaker 4: Wamburgos just got to triple A. He is a reliever, 923 00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:41,600 Speaker 4: he's minor league believer. 924 00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:46,240 Speaker 2: Wamburgos okay, And Hunter Cranton, Hunter Cranton, because right now 925 00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:51,120 Speaker 2: that feels light Frey Hadeo Swatz, who is being lauded 926 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 2: as like. 927 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:54,640 Speaker 4: Hunter Cranton is a twenty four year old turning twenty 928 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:55,360 Speaker 4: five and high. 929 00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 2: A, yeah, that's incredibly what has very like where are 930 00:34:59,160 --> 00:34:59,680 Speaker 2: the Tigers? 931 00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:01,799 Speaker 1: And then I'm going to say this too, where are 932 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:04,800 Speaker 1: the Yankees? Where are the Phillies? Where are these teams? 933 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:07,360 Speaker 4: On this yank think he's got Ryan McMahon for nothing, 934 00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:09,799 Speaker 4: So take that at true, but like also like this 935 00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 4: is still nothing. 936 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:13,040 Speaker 1: As well, Yeah it really. 937 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 4: I mean again, I think that there's a lot of 938 00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:18,279 Speaker 4: chirp chirp about these these prospect packages, but the end 939 00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:20,279 Speaker 4: of the day, like these rental corner guys don't go 940 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:21,960 Speaker 4: for that much jastionality and go for that much either. 941 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:24,399 Speaker 4: The Manners just fix our offense is the first time 942 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:25,759 Speaker 4: in like a decade and didn't really give that much 943 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:28,080 Speaker 4: together them. And I do think that Lockleyer probably is 944 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:29,480 Speaker 4: the first basement for the rest of the season on 945 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:31,359 Speaker 4: the Diamonbacks. I think the Dinmebacks one. So I think 946 00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 4: the Dinebacks are a team that are not trying to sell, 947 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:34,600 Speaker 4: they're trying to retool. So I think they were like, 948 00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:36,600 Speaker 4: all right, this guy might be this guy might literally 949 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:37,759 Speaker 4: be our first basement next year. 950 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:39,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, he might give us twenty homers and like a 951 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:41,160 Speaker 2: seven to twenty oh ps, Like we'll take it for now. 952 00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, he could be a different pavent Smith. 953 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:46,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, right handed paved Smith, right right yeah. 954 00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 4: Right handed, worst version of pavement Smith. But it's it's 955 00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:51,880 Speaker 4: it's weird. I mean again, like this always kind of happens. 956 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:54,239 Speaker 4: These relievers are going for the most. I think there's 957 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 4: the most competition around them. Maybe it was just less 958 00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:59,000 Speaker 4: competition around you, Heno Suarez than we thought. But that 959 00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:01,399 Speaker 4: is a crazy is a light return. It's not good 960 00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:03,239 Speaker 4: for Mark Fianto's value, but it might be good for 961 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:04,400 Speaker 4: Luis Robert. 962 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:06,720 Speaker 2: Or it could be good for Mark Viianso's value because 963 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:09,440 Speaker 2: maybe it's because he has all this control he's actually 964 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:11,600 Speaker 2: got people want more, they care about what's going to 965 00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:12,720 Speaker 2: go on the next few years. 966 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:17,840 Speaker 4: I would to highlight Brett Bathy as a for the 967 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:20,240 Speaker 4: DraftKings player spotlight ahead of this series against the Giants. 968 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,960 Speaker 4: Ryan Marisio had a huge weeks last weekend, the huge 969 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 4: ru run against the Giants that we just I freaked 970 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:26,719 Speaker 4: out it back along because you missed out you pssed 971 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:27,439 Speaker 4: that part of the boad gust. 972 00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:30,200 Speaker 2: Did you see Ronnie Mauricio is like the second highest 973 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:32,439 Speaker 2: OAA for third basement in baseball this year. 974 00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:36,560 Speaker 4: I tweeted it, I tweeted that out that out, Yeah, 975 00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:38,520 Speaker 4: I quote tweeted him. But then and Marisio had the 976 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:40,680 Speaker 4: huge run run that we wasted against Robert Suarez on Monday 977 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:42,399 Speaker 4: as well. But the reason I want to talk about 978 00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:44,120 Speaker 4: Baty for this right now, like wil Mauricio has kind 979 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 4: of planting themselves and taking that I don't think I 980 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:47,759 Speaker 4: don't think I used the right word there, so late 981 00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 4: at night, Wilder Mariso has taken over that third base 982 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:51,839 Speaker 4: job and been amazing at it. The reason is before 983 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:53,759 Speaker 4: to do that because Baty has been so good second base, 984 00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 4: Like those two guys have started that those two positions 985 00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:57,879 Speaker 4: for most of the Mets games in the last week 986 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:01,239 Speaker 4: and a half. Here and Baby, specifically his home and 987 00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:04,319 Speaker 4: awayte splits are insane. That boy loves the hype, he 988 00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:07,399 Speaker 4: needs the fans. A nine to five ops at home 989 00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:09,200 Speaker 4: this year for Brett Baby, you know, four to sixty 990 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:12,400 Speaker 4: four ops on the road an insane split. So I 991 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 4: think I think that we're going to get a big 992 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:16,799 Speaker 4: hit from Brett Baty because now that we've pushed our 993 00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:19,480 Speaker 4: chips in the bullpen is set. We probably do need 994 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:22,480 Speaker 4: another star that if we can make it happen still centerfielder. 995 00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:23,319 Speaker 1: This whole season. 996 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:24,799 Speaker 4: That comes down to this line that's supposed to one 997 00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 4: of the best in baseball and has underwhelmed to this point. 998 00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:28,480 Speaker 4: And a lot of this does have course have to 999 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:29,960 Speaker 4: come from the four guys to the top who have 1000 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:32,520 Speaker 4: been not very good since the All Star break. Pete 1001 00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:37,240 Speaker 4: and Lindor horrible for a month straight. Baby Mauricio Ventos 1002 00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 4: Alvarez also left the game. We mentioned anything from this series. 1003 00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 4: We also left the game on Wednesday, but Bathy, Mauricio Alvarez, 1004 00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 4: Viento's at least some combination of those guys had to 1005 00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 4: step up and be real player second half. 1006 00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:49,040 Speaker 3: Like that's how we get where we. 1007 00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:50,359 Speaker 4: Want to go with those guys. I think it starts 1008 00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:52,360 Speaker 4: this weekend.

Hopefully we see him 1024 00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:26,000 Speaker 2: in the Orange and blue. But yeah, Baty's been great. 1025 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:28,920 Speaker 2: Baty's been so good, and Mauricio has been fantastic.
