1 00:00:01,639 --> 00:00:08,360 Speaker 1: Wanted to cook. It's all how's it going, everybody? Welcome 2 00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:13,920 Speaker 1: back Saturday, June seventh, And the Yankees beat the Red 3 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:18,040 Speaker 1: Sox last night. And it was not a cruise. Let's 4 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:21,159 Speaker 1: be honest with ourselves. It was not easy for a 5 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:24,640 Speaker 1: game that the Yankees led seven to nothing. I felt 6 00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:27,440 Speaker 1: like it got a little bit too close for comfort there. 7 00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 1: And I'm just seeing the lineup right now for Saturday 8 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:32,320 Speaker 1: Night baseball. Talk about that in a second. But the 9 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:37,160 Speaker 1: offense was clicking pretty well yesterday. Jazz Chisholm home run 10 00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:40,199 Speaker 1: and for RBIs, I liked what he said after the 11 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:43,560 Speaker 1: game about how he's basically turning down the energy switch, 12 00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:48,160 Speaker 1: turning down the volume on everything to about seventy percent. Basically, 13 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 1: he's a guy who goes all out all the time 14 00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:57,760 Speaker 1: because he's an insanely athletic human being. Right, But sometimes 15 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 1: that you know, that came come with injuries, and for 16 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 1: a lot of his career he has been on and 17 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 1: off the il and maybe this time, you know, that 18 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:11,480 Speaker 1: oblique swing, you know, oblique strain from the swing was 19 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:13,759 Speaker 1: the final straw that broke the camel's back that said, hey, 20 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:16,479 Speaker 1: I need to kind of dial it back a little bit, 21 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 1: and if it keeps him on the field and keeps 22 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 1: him producing, I am all for it. The pitching though 23 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 1: not so good. Last night. They let Boston crawl back 24 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 1: in it. Raphael Devs hit that monster home run. The 25 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 1: rookie Marcel Meyer hit a home run, so it got dicey, 26 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: and then we had to go to Devin Williams and 27 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie. I was reaching for the thumbs 28 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 1: if something falls off my wall. I was reaching for 29 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 1: the thumbs man, And I felt like I don't I 30 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 1: want pretty much anybody else in the world in the 31 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 1: ninth inning right now. But to his credit, he got 32 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: it done. And every time he, you know, gets it done, 33 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 1: that builds confidence. So you know, hopefully that is just 34 00:01:56,240 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: one more more brick in a solid foundation for him 35 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 1: to start pitching better on a more consistent basis. Today, 36 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 1: totally different story. Yankees are facing Garrett Crochet, filthy stuff. 37 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 1: Sub two Era just got the bag dead ringer for 38 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 1: a young Chris Sale tall, lean, explosive, violent delivery. And 39 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 1: it's funny that, like some organizations just kind of have 40 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: the same guys over and over again, they keep cloning 41 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: the same guys, and I know he came up with 42 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: the White Sox, but he's going to become a star 43 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,640 Speaker 1: in Boston. So today, buckle up. It is not going 44 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 1: to be easy. But let's take a look at the 45 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 1: lineup real quick. Paul Goldschmidt hits lefties very well. In 46 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:42,640 Speaker 1: the leadoff spot at first base. We got Ben Rice 47 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 1: in there against the lefty. That's a spot where when 48 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: John Carlos Stanton comes back against somebody like Garrett Crochet. 49 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 1: Got no problem ben Rice taking the day off, even 50 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 1: though he does hit lefties. Aaron Judge batting third. In 51 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: right field, we got Cody Bellinger batting fourth. We've got 52 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 1: Jason Dominguez. I am honestly astonished astonished that Jason Dominguez 53 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 1: is in the lineup against Garrett Crochet. I mean he 54 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: doesn't hit righty at all. And Dj Lemayhew in there 55 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: at second base. They took Jazz Chisholm out of the lineup. 56 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 1: He's not playing third. We got Pablo Reis at third. 57 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: That's interesting. I mean, maybe they don't want to overdo 58 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 1: it with Jazz. That could be part of it. But 59 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: to say I'm just because he's a lefty. After when 60 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 1: he's swinging the bat Well. I've never agreed with that. 61 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 1: Austin Wells is in there, oswal Perazza playing short today obviously, 62 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 1: Volpi's still out with the EBO contusion. And Ryan Yarborough 63 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: on the mound fresh off of out dueling Yamamoto. What 64 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: do you guys think of the lineup? I'm not sure 65 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: I love this one more time, gold Schmid, Rice, Judge Bellinger, Dominguez. 66 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: Not only are you hitting Dominguez right handed against this guy, 67 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: but in the five spot, the guy's like two for 68 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 1: one hundred right handed. I don't get it. This is 69 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 1: one of those days where I'm clamoring for I'm claring 70 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: for Domingez, one of my favorite I used to watch 71 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: to get the day off, and then we got Reyus. 72 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 1: Lauri c says, Reyes should be an uber driver. That's 73 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 1: why I like New Yorkers, man. They do not hold 74 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: back anyway. You know, I was thinking about as we 75 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:18,359 Speaker 1: were going through that. You know, the the comparisons between 76 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:22,719 Speaker 1: Chris Sayle and Garrett Crochet, Like, who have the Yankees 77 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 1: cloned over and over again? Who like power hitting left handed? 78 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 1: First basement or at least preferably left handed first basement? 79 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 1: Gerrig Chambliss was left handed. I don't know did Chamblis 80 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 1: switch hit. I think he was just lefty. Maddingly Tino 81 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: he was be a trade. Johnby is a free agent, 82 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: Mark t Chea as a free agent. He was a 83 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,679 Speaker 1: switch hitter. For five minutes. It looked like Greg Bird 84 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 1: was gonna be the next guy. Uh but uh, you know, 85 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,840 Speaker 1: maybe it's Ben Rice. We'll see. And they've also had 86 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 1: some gigantic righty bats, you know, Judge Winfield, John Carlow, 87 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 1: Frank Howard comes to mind as being huge. What we need, 88 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,280 Speaker 1: what we really need is another Mariano Rivera. We need 89 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:07,039 Speaker 1: another unhittable closer for a decade and a half. That 90 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 1: would be wonderful right now. But uh, anyway, we got 91 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: some voicemails here. Let's go to a call about the lineup. 92 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: I haven't listened to this yet, so. 93 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 2: And I hope he's enable to get on the pregame show. 94 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 2: But the lineup is really annoying. I mean, I just 95 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 2: looked at Pablo Rais's to bomb the other day. He 96 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 2: hasn't hit a home run in two years, three years. 97 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 2: It's insane. Uh, he's facing forward teams, so there's like 98 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 2: a one percent chance he gets a hit today, I guess, 99 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 2: But I mean, come on, I'd rather have Parazza Thereza 100 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:41,840 Speaker 2: at least have been, you know, kind of having some 101 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 2: some decent lately. I mean, this lineup is really disappointing. 102 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, Paraza is playing short today. I'm not sure if 103 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 1: you miss that, but yeah, Reyes, you're looking at his 104 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 1: baseball savant page. I'm not going to sugarcoat it. It 105 00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 1: is bad. He's got five hits this year in twenty 106 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 1: six at bat's twenty eight played appearances, so he's in 107 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:07,359 Speaker 1: one ninety three last year. He hasn't really hit a 108 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 1: ball much further left than second base this year as 109 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 1: a right handed hitter. That's interesting. Yeah, I'm not sure 110 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 1: why he's still on the team. I'm you know, not 111 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 1: to give him any grief, but I would rather have Vivas. 112 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, Willie, Hey, Derek, really, I'm disappointed that Grisham is. 113 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 1: Not in the line. 114 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 2: Is that because he's left handed he's better left handed? 115 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 3: Didn't Ray is. 116 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 4: Any hand? 117 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 1: Well, you know that's not really that's like a false 118 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: dichotomy or whatever, a false choice because it's not Grisham 119 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: or Reyes, because Reys doesn't. I mean Grisham doesn't play 120 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:49,720 Speaker 1: third base. It's really Domingus or Grisham, because Grisham would 121 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 1: play center field, which would you know, force Bellinger over 122 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 1: to left right, Bellinger's playing let me just double check here, Yeah, 123 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:01,799 Speaker 1: he's playing center field today. So it's really that's the choice. 124 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: Is Dominga's a Grisham and Grisham. You know, he's been sinking, right, 125 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: he's been He's he's been fluttering. Got a call from Hugh. 126 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 3: Oh, hi, Derek, this is Hugh from Brooklyn. 127 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 1: Oh, good morning. 128 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 3: I'm not the slightest bit concerned that the Yankees have 129 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 3: too much depth. I mean, it's about time they had 130 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 3: the type of death. Death that's going to win. I 131 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 3: mean also, I see Grisham by he's heading down to 132 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 3: two sixteen lifetime average. So by the second half of 133 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 3: the season, Bellinger will be back and set and that's 134 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 3: going to answer a lot of the questions. But I 135 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,119 Speaker 3: think it's great that they get standing back. They'll still 136 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 3: have rice and the death is very very important. 137 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: Great call, Hugh, So you know, I love the optimism. 138 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 1: I love it. I love the optimism. Last half full Q. 139 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 1: That's what we're calling you from now on. Got a 140 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 1: new we got to call here from I'm not sure who, 141 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:00,080 Speaker 1: but it's about jazz Y. 142 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 4: Hey, Eric, quick question about Jazh Chishem's new approach. Now 143 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 4: we've seen the Yankees foot guys, maybe on the Phantom 144 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 4: al at Stroman. Do you think it's possible that they 145 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 4: sent Jazz down on purpose so he could work on 146 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 4: his way to bring him back up. 147 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: No, I mean we saw him get hurt in real time. 148 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:26,200 Speaker 1: We saw him, you know, we saw him get hurt. Now, 149 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: he hit a triple the next pitch, but then he 150 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 1: came out of the game. Look, I think he was 151 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 1: really hurt. I think being down in the minor leagues, 152 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 1: a coach or someone said something to him, hey, don't 153 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 1: play so hard, you know, I mean, you're you're going 154 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 1: like a bull in a china shop. You're so athletic 155 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 1: you don't need to right. Or maybe he watched an 156 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 1: episode of Pinstripe Territory where we said the exact same thing. 157 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 5: Got Steve here, Yeah, Derek, Steve Lane. I have a 158 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 5: little quiz for you. 159 00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 2: Navarrees Wells and Escara. 160 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 5: One of these things is not like the other two? 161 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 5: Which one is it? The answer is Navarez Navarrez is 162 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 5: the complete package, and Cashman sent him to the Rich 163 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 5: Sox so virtually nothing. And at the pregame show, I 164 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 5: had to to watch Red Sox broadcast last night because 165 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:30,439 Speaker 5: of some blackout resriches. They were laughing their asses off. 166 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 5: They were almost paying in their pants that the Yankees 167 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 5: gave up Navarez for virtually nothing. 168 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 1: Steve, First, of all, that is a fantastic call, both 169 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 1: informative and entertaining and well nuanced. However, what the Yankees 170 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: got for Narvaiaz, I'm pretty excited about this guy, Elmer 171 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 1: Rodriguez Cruz. He has made nine starts this year. He's 172 00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: twenty one years old with the Hi A Hudson Valley Rennie. 173 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 1: He's got a three point three eight ERA. But look 174 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 1: at the strikeouts and innings pitched. Forty eight innings, fifty 175 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: seven strikeouts, one point one zero whip. He's a very 176 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 1: polished pitcher. Former fourth round pick, one hundred and fifth 177 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 1: overall pick in the draft in twenty twenty one. I 178 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: think he's gonna be an absolute stud. Six three, one 179 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 1: hundred and sixty. So he's thin and lean. You worry 180 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:27,560 Speaker 1: about injury maybe, but he's a guy who throws absolute gas, 181 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,839 Speaker 1: has command and has a good breaking ball, so we 182 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:36,199 Speaker 1: didn't get nothing for him. But I agree with you, 183 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 1: Narvaez is playing pretty well for Boston, whereas Wells has 184 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 1: not had a great year with the Yang. He's been okay, 185 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 1: but he has not been great. We had another call 186 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: from Steve. 187 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, Hi, Derek, Steve's calling for many very interesting. While 188 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 5: you were doing your post game show, obviously, Ries was 189 00:10:55,960 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 5: doing theirs, and they interviewed Jazzy and he explained that 190 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,440 Speaker 5: he has made the decision with his coaches to for 191 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 5: now on going seventy speed. Whether he's feeling hitting, running 192 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:14,320 Speaker 5: the bases, he thinks he's in better control and has 193 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 5: just as much power as something that all of us 194 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 5: have been waiting for. I think we can expect a 195 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 5: lot more from Jazz in the future. 196 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: I agree, I agree. I mean, some guys, it just 197 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,680 Speaker 1: takes a while for it to click, right, that you're 198 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: so athletic that you don't need to go above and 199 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 1: beyond your athleticism to be a good player. Right, We 200 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 1: don't need him to swing like Ken Griffy Jr. His 201 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 1: natural normal swing is already very good. Right. He's so 202 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:52,679 Speaker 1: fast that without even really going above and beyond aggressiveness. 203 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 1: He can steal thirty thirty five bags, which is elite. 204 00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 1: I love what we saw from him that that series 205 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 1: so far since he's come back. But hey, I'm not 206 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 1: gonna have to face Garrett Crochet today. Quick word from 207 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,359 Speaker 1: our sponsor and then back with a few more comments. 208 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 6: Hey, if you want to keep the conversation going after 209 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 6: a show that you're listening to on the FT network, 210 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 6: then head to chat. Bcc AJ's on there. I'm on 211 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 6: there right now, typing away. 212 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 5: I'll be there. 213 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 6: We'll be there all the time, talking about what topics 214 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 6: people want to discuss, what we want, what everyone wants 215 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 6: to hear us talk about on foul Territory. Yeah, if 216 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 6: you have a question, we can answer it on FT 217 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 6: or on an FT team show on the network. So 218 00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,079 Speaker 6: if you want to come crash our group chat, it's 219 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 6: as easy as sending a text. Head to foul Territory 220 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 6: dot chat to start chatting with FT hosts and the 221 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 6: FT fam. 222 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 1: All right, so we got a couple of comments here. 223 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: Donnie Clark brings up, Hey, Zeus Rodriguez, he is somebody 224 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 1: I have definitely been keeping an eye on. I'm gonna 225 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 1: pull up his minor league stats right now. He can 226 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 1: flat out hit guys. He is a catcher in the 227 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 1: Yankee system. Let me just pull up his numbers here, 228 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 1: and he is tearing the cover off the ball right now, 229 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 1: hitting three twenty one with a four to thirteen on 230 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 1: base percentage. He only has one home run one hundred 231 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: and eighty four bats, so not a power guy. Twenty two. 232 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: Ribby's has got ten stolen bases, so he can run 233 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 1: a little bit. I've also heard that the Yankees have 234 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 1: tried him out a little bit at third base, and 235 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 1: it looked for a second like he might play third 236 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:27,959 Speaker 1: base if the Yankees opted not to go with Chisholm. 237 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 1: You know, let's say DJ came back and he was 238 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 1: obviously not able to play or he got hurt again. 239 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,679 Speaker 1: Right then you keep Jazz at second and maybe you 240 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 1: call up this kid to play third base. So he's 241 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 1: somebody keep an eye on five ten, two oh eight. 242 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 1: So kind of a small, stocky guy, right handed hitter. Hey, 243 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 1: if somebody's hitting three twenty one in TRIPAA, that's still 244 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 1: pretty impressive. So Laurie C says she's not feeling confident 245 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 1: about this game. Yeah, look, sometimes you just know when 246 00:13:57,960 --> 00:13:59,840 Speaker 1: you're facing an ace. But I didn't feel confident again 247 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 1: against Yamamoto on Sunday with Yarborough, and you know what, 248 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 1: Yarborough got it done. Yarbro's been pitching great. So they say, 249 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: you know, momentum is only as strong as your next 250 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 1: day is starting pitcher. Well, we've got some momentum and 251 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 1: our starting pitcher, Deada has been pretty damn good. So 252 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 1: Dante says prediction, Yarbro will go five full with six 253 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 1: k's and belly with extra bases. You know it encourging me. 254 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 1: I didn't make a nostra Derek prediction. Let me look 255 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 1: at the lineup again. Let's just pull it. Let's just 256 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 1: pull it open. Let's get your predictions in the chat. 257 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 1: Let's do that for the last few minutes of the show. 258 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 1: Paul Goldschmidt hits lefties really well, so I like him 259 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 1: to do something today. You know the fact that they're 260 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 1: going with Bellinger and Dominguez, maybe maybe the Yankees know 261 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 1: something they're going with them at four and five in 262 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 1: the order. Maybe the Yankees recognize something that they hit 263 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 1: that particular speed or or hit you know, that particular 264 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 1: version of of pitcher. You know, lefty side arm slinger 265 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 1: with heat. Maybe they see the ball well. You know, 266 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 1: Austin Wells don't love him in there against Crochet. I 267 00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 1: think that's zero for three with two strikeouts. Pablo Reys, 268 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 1: What the hell, let's go two hits, Pablo Reyis, two hits, 269 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 1: Pablo Reyis. That's the official most of Derek prediction, because 270 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 1: you know what, you can't predict baseball. Susan Donnie Clark says, 271 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 1: think Yarborough goes six with six strikeouts. I'll sign up 272 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 1: for that right now. If you go six innings, that 273 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 1: means he's pitched pretty well. You know they're not going 274 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 1: to leave him in there for six if he's not 275 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 1: getting it done. Dante says, if we win today, I 276 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: believe we sweep and I agree with you. If we 277 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 1: win today, I think the Yankees are gonna be riding 278 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 1: that momentum and they will come out tomorrow on Sunday 279 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 1: Night Baseball and just be all over them. Think I think, 280 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 1: if I think you win today, you got a chance 281 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 1: to blow out the Red Sox. Really put your foot 282 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 1: on their neck going forward. Let's go and take a 283 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 1: look at these standings in the American League here and 284 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 1: see where we're at. Yankees five games up on the Jas, 285 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 1: five and a half up on the Rays, and now 286 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 1: ten and a half up on the Red Sox, who 287 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 1: are thirty and thirty five. Yankees win today, it will 288 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 1: be win number forty on the season. And I'm gonna 289 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 1: go to Baseball Savant and we'll take a look at 290 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 1: some of the metrics for today. I should have had 291 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 1: this open. That's just bad preparation on my part. I 292 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 1: should have had the I should had wide open. Okay, 293 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 1: here we go, all right, so you see a lot 294 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 1: of red for both teams here. Rafael Devers. His exit 295 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 1: velocity is elite ninety four point two miles an hour. 296 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: His hard hit percentage is elite fifty six point four. 297 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: But look at ben Rice. Ben Rice has a higher 298 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 1: average exit velocity and a higher hard hit percentage than 299 00:16:55,640 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 1: Rafael Devers. Isn't that crazy? Swoba is higher than Devors. 300 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:05,959 Speaker 1: I mean, this just shows you, you know, how unlucky 301 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,639 Speaker 1: Ben Rice has been. He almost hits the ball too 302 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 1: much on a line because he, you know, hits it 303 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:16,120 Speaker 1: right at guys, Aaron Judge ninety five point six mile 304 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 1: an hour exit velocity on average fifty seven point zero 305 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 1: hard hit percentage, elite walk percentage obviously unbelievable numbers. Look 306 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 1: at Carlos Darvaaz, He's got, you know, maybe not elite, 307 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 1: but next level down exit velocity ninety one point five 308 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:38,959 Speaker 1: miles an hour. And then you know Dominga is creeping up. 309 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 1: He's over ninety now for a while he wasn't. His 310 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:44,159 Speaker 1: exit velocity has come up, and his hard hit percentage 311 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 1: is elite fifty one point eight percent of the time. 312 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 1: He's another one of these guys who's been kind of unlucky. 313 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:56,119 Speaker 1: His ex wOBA not great, his walk percentage damn near elite. 314 00:17:56,320 --> 00:18:00,640 Speaker 1: Sprint speed damn near elite. Oswald Perrazza very really fast, 315 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 1: if only he could get on base. More So, I 316 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:06,159 Speaker 1: love looking at these kind of like little breakdowns of 317 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 1: you know, how guys are swinging the bat. Now, there 318 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,560 Speaker 1: are more analytical folks out there than me who understand 319 00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 1: it a lot more I'm learning. I'm an old school 320 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:16,959 Speaker 1: Yankees fan. I grew up, you know, reading box scores 321 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 1: and in the nineties, and you'll hear all about that 322 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:22,439 Speaker 1: when I eventually do release Pinstripe Therapy, hopefully later in 323 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 1: the year. I've been a little bit delayed, I kind of. 324 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:27,760 Speaker 1: I wrote the first like three chapters and then I 325 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 1: got busy, So I'm probably going to spend more time 326 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 1: on it over the next several weeks. But anyway, tune 327 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:36,679 Speaker 1: in after the game. Obviously, this one is going to 328 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 1: be difficult with Garrett Crochet on the mound, but I 329 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 1: believe in our guys, and I'll see you win or 330 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:47,640 Speaker 1: lose after the game.
