Former outfielder in first 9 00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:35,400 Speaker 1: baseman Nick Swisher he dropped by. Can't wait for that? 10 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 1: Plus Ahmad Hicks, a sportscaster, and St. Louis who covers 11 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,240 Speaker 1: one of the hottest teams in baseball, I should say, 12 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 1: the hottest. All that and much more. Let's go up 13 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,240 Speaker 1: to lead off. It's getting robbed to keep him on. 14 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 1: Rob's hot take on the three biggest stories and Major 15 00:00:56,480 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 1: League Baseball Number one, the St. Louis Cardinals. I I 16 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:06,759 Speaker 1: don't even know where to start. I've always said this St. 17 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:10,480 Speaker 1: Louis is the baseball capital of the United States. It 18 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: really is. For a city that size. They sell three 19 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 1: million baseball tickets every year. They've run two football teams, 20 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 1: NFL teams, out of the city. All they care about 21 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 1: are the Cardinals and the Blues, and especially the Cardinals. 22 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: If you ever been to a game, I was there 23 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 1: this summer. Everybody wears red, everybody's in and man have 24 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 1: the Cardinals delivered for their fan base with this unheard 25 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 1: of seventeen game winning streak going into Wednesday, they just 26 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: seem like they can't lose. They've done everything timely, hitting, uh, 27 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: making plays, defensively, getting good pitching, just a well rounded team. 28 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody expected this from St. Louis. Um 29 00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 1: they looked dead in the water. I thought this was 30 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 1: gonna be a play operates between Cincinnati and San Diego, 31 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 1: and out of nowhere, they clinched the second wild card 32 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 1: spot in the National League. Hats off to St. Louis, 33 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 1: Hats off to the Cardinals Number two. Here's my open 34 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 1: letter to Yankees GM Brian Cashman. We were wrong, and 35 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 1: I'm talking about Yankee fans. They were belly aching when 36 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 1: you went and got gian Carlos Stanton from the Miami Marlins, 37 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,519 Speaker 1: a big right handed home run hit or playing that 38 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 1: Yankee stadium, and then when the guy couldn't stay healthy, 39 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:40,360 Speaker 1: everybody was saying this was a waste, it was a 40 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 1: bad deal, it didn't make any sense. And now look 41 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: at Stanton. He has been raking. What a pleasure to watch. 42 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 1: Don't forget he had those big home runs in the 43 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,360 Speaker 1: postseason last year at five home runs in four games, 44 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,959 Speaker 1: and now going into Wednesday, he has been a man 45 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: and on the mission hitting big home runs for the Yankees. 46 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: On Tuesday Night, with the Yankees up three to two, 47 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 1: he had a big three run home run against Toronto 48 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,959 Speaker 1: to put the game away. And he has now hit 49 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 1: home runs in his last four games and in that 50 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 1: span has thirteen RBIs. He has been everything that you 51 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 1: could have imagined, the big home runs, his at bats 52 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 1: look good, he's healthy. Finally, when this is what I 53 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 1: think New Yorkers and Yankee fans have been waiting for. 54 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 1: But uh, he looks good in the stripe uniform. So 55 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 1: I'm sure Yankee fans have forgiven all the missteps and 56 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: the injuries at our loving every single minute of this 57 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: number three. Bravo to show. Hey, oh Tani, I know 58 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,119 Speaker 1: that Joe Madden, the manager of the Angels, were doing 59 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: damage control on Wednesday. No, no show. Hey, he's not 60 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: saying he wants to leave l A and leave the 61 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 1: Angels or anything like that. But he did say he's 62 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 1: about winning. And if you're an Angels fan, you gotta 63 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 1: love the words that came out of Old Tani's mount 64 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 1: Because it's great to put up numbers. It's great to 65 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 1: be a modern day babe route and pitch and excel 66 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: and hit home runs and all that, but it is 67 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: about winning. And he's saying, hey, where he's here to 68 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:28,600 Speaker 1: win and to have Mike Trout and Old Tani on 69 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 1: the same team and the same lineup and not have 70 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:34,919 Speaker 1: the pitching that that you need in order to compete 71 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: and not make the playoffs. Yet again, I think he 72 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: sent the message to ownership that they need to pick 73 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: up some pitching, whether it's via trades or free agency. 74 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: But his message resonated, no doubt about it. So I 75 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 1: love to hear players talk about winning. Here comes the 76 00:04:55,120 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: big interview. Listen Hendler. Good, All right, now, let's welcome 77 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 1: into the podcast. Nick Switcher, one of my favorite people, 78 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: of course, who won a World Series with the New 79 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: York Yankees in two thousand nine and outfield the first 80 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:14,839 Speaker 1: baseman hit two hundred and forty five career home runs. 81 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 1: What up Nick, how you doing big? How doing man? 82 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 1: All good? Excited? Ready for the playoffs? What a baseball season? 83 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: And you're the perfect guy to Pepper with a couple 84 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 1: of questions. Here here we go. I'm ready all right. 85 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 1: The Yankees and what people we've seen them basketball, your 86 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 1: former team. They got some some giants hitting home runs 87 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 1: left and right. But they're pitching though, Nick, is what's surprising. 88 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:47,840 Speaker 1: They have the fourth best E. R. Ray in all 89 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: of Major League Baseball and Garrick Cole has a chance 90 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 1: to win the side Young, tell me about the Yankees 91 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:58,119 Speaker 1: pitching and do you think Garrick Cole, who pitched on 92 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:03,239 Speaker 1: Wednesday night, uh, has a chance to win that? Yeah? Well, 93 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,160 Speaker 1: for he's got one more start left right, one more 94 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 1: start for his for his cy young bid. Uh. You 95 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 1: know you've got Robbie Ray coming pitching the last game 96 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: of the seeds are I think he pitches on Sunday 97 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 1: um for his last bid. But at the end of 98 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: the day, listen, you're talking about uh staff that really 99 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: really pulled themselves together this year. And listen, you know 100 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: with the injury with Corey Kluber at the beginning of 101 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: the season, you know he's healthy he's back now. You know, 102 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 1: Garret Cole has been the anchor all season long. In 103 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: my mind, definitely said candidate for sure. But I think 104 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 1: the you know, surprising guys, maybe like you know, nasty 105 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: Destar Cortes. He's been absolutely filthy, coming from all different angles, 106 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 1: giving you a little Johnny Quato look on the mound, pausing, 107 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: kind of lifting his leg up high like Warren Spawn. 108 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,839 Speaker 1: I think for him, he's done a tremendous job. I 109 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: really really appreciate what he's done, really filling the voids, 110 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: filling some innings, and the back end of the the 111 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: Yankees bullpen knows exactly what they're doing. Roldis Chapman went 112 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: to a little bit of a roller coaster season this year, 113 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 1: but seems like he's back. He's back to being Chappie 114 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,600 Speaker 1: that we all know and love. And anytime you give 115 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: him the ball in the ninth inning with the league, 116 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: you're feeling pretty good about your chances. What about the Padres, 117 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 1: I picked them to be in the World Series. I 118 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 1: love the team, love the pitching that they picked up 119 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: in the offseason. Nick had some injuries that pitching was 120 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 1: heard tattoos in and out of the lineup. What what 121 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 1: went wrong? They just melted down in the second half. Yeah, 122 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 1: it was crazy. I mean I saw it just like you. 123 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: Even the banning Machado you know, uh, you know, kind 124 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 1: of blow up in the dugout. What's kind of crazy, right. 125 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 1: I don't even know what that is all about, or 126 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 1: or why that had to happen publicly like that, but 127 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 1: I mean, wow, you just don't see that between teammates nowadays. 128 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 1: So there had to have been some things that are 129 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 1: going on in that locker room. Listen. I mean, if 130 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 1: you look at that team on the paper at the 131 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: beginning of the year, listen, they were gonna challenge the Dodgers. 132 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: You know, they were gonna put it on the Dodgers 133 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 1: all season long. I just looked at the standings the 134 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: other day and they're five hundred. Like that's crazy, absolutely 135 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: crazy that that sort of talent produces that. I think 136 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 1: they need to look on the inside a little bit. 137 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 1: I'm not in that locker room, so I really couldn't 138 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: tell you, but I mean I'm thinking of to myself. Men, 139 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: you got Fernando Tattoos Jr. One of the best players 140 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 1: in the game. You got you know, great guys in 141 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: that locker room, you know, like Eric Cosmer and and 142 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: Tommy fam I'm interested to see, you know, where they're 143 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 1: gonna go from here, because you can't keep spending all 144 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: that money every year year and a year out and 145 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 1: not getting any results. And on that note about the 146 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 1: team and what's happened, Uh, could it possibly have cost 147 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: tattoos to National League MVP with the meltdown because he 148 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 1: going into Wednesday, Nick Leaves leads UH National League with 149 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 1: forty one home runs, RBIs, two eighty two batting average 150 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 1: and twenty five steals. But but the collapse might might 151 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 1: negate that. Yeah, you know, I don't know, man, Fernando 152 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 1: Tatti Junior is a bad man. Brother, he's so good. 153 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 1: I mean, if you're talking about that the NL race, 154 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 1: it's a little more open. Uh. You know, Brice Harper's 155 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 1: having a tremendous year. I think he just clubbed his 156 00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 1: thirty four home run the other night. Um, But you know, 157 00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:06,079 Speaker 1: I don't know, man, if I was a photo, I'm 158 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 1: not looking at that sort of collapse. I'm looking at 159 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: what happens on the field. Listen. I've always been a 160 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 1: big fan of that. Um. Listen, you know it's it's 161 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: it's crazy. They should almost have the best player and 162 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 1: then they can have the most valuable player, right. I 163 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,720 Speaker 1: think it's just all and how you really view that award? 164 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 1: If it's the most valuable to your specific team, Uh, 165 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 1: then you know, Bryce Harper really kind of puts himself 166 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 1: up there. But if you're talking about one of the 167 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 1: best players, it's hard not to say Fernando Tattoos with 168 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 1: the power and the speed, it's hard not to say 169 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 1: that he wouldn't deserve that award. Guest is Nick Swisher, who, 170 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,959 Speaker 1: of course broken with the Oakland A's and two thousand 171 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,200 Speaker 1: four played for the White Sox, the Yankees, the Indians, 172 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:48,319 Speaker 1: and Braids All Star in. What about the Dodgers Even 173 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 1: if they aren't able to catch the Giants and they 174 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 1: get in as a wild card with Max Scherz who 175 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: has a one point three two e r A in 176 00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:01,079 Speaker 1: September and fifteen wins, this still the favor going in, right, 177 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 1: if they can get past the wild card round. Yeah, 178 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 1: And by the way, I don't think, you know, being 179 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 1: a wild card team is such a bad thing. I 180 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 1: think it's a crazy percentage of teams over the last 181 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,559 Speaker 1: you know, five ten fifteen years that have come out 182 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 1: of that wild card. And that's because when you're playing 183 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 1: wild card baseball, you're playing playoff baseball. Every single night 184 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 1: is a must win situation. You're talking about the Los 185 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 1: Angeles Dodgers that are gonna win a hundred and four 186 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 1: hundred and five games and they're gonna have to play 187 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 1: a one game playoffs. That's absolutely crazy to me, I 188 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 1: think for them, I mean, there's gotta be some sort 189 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 1: of rule, like if you were in a hundred games, 190 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 1: you're automatically in the playoffs, you know what I mean? 191 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 1: Absolutely not even fair. But if you look at that team, 192 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 1: you know, I still, in my mind, I still don't 193 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 1: think we're even San Francisco Giants enough love, right, We're 194 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:49,319 Speaker 1: not seeing them enough credit. Man. The fact that they 195 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 1: are absolutely just destroying the league and we're not even 196 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: talking about him. It's absolutely crazy. What Gid Kapler and 197 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,959 Speaker 1: and his squad is doing over there. Uh is absolutely amazing, man, 198 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 1: a very unselfish squad. Uh. And I'm really really excited 199 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: to see what they're gonna be to be able to 200 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 1: do in the playoffs. All right, And one last thing, 201 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: talking about giving them love, the Seattle Mariners will not 202 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 1: go away. I mean no doubt, many believe they could 203 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 1: sneak in. They're going into Wednesday, they were only one 204 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 1: game out of the second wild card spot. The Yankees 205 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:26,560 Speaker 1: have the first one. There's the Blue Jays, there's the 206 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 1: Red Sox. But Seattles there would that be something if 207 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:33,200 Speaker 1: they were to push those two teams out, that would 208 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: be I mean talk about a come from behind right Uh. 209 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 1: Just the slow and steady toward us wins the race. Uh. 210 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: Nothing really special with Seattle's lineup, but for the season 211 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,440 Speaker 1: that they've had. Listen, seems like baseball in the a 212 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,559 Speaker 1: L West is back. You know, You've got the Astros, 213 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 1: You've got uh, the Oakland Athletics, and now all of 214 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,439 Speaker 1: a sudden, the Seattle Mirrors are putting themselves back in contention. Uh. 215 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 1: There is something to be said with culture. Uh. And 216 00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: you know, for what they're doing over there, man, up 217 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,680 Speaker 1: to the north seat in the Northwest, it's it seems 218 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 1: to be working, man. I mean you know, I mean listen, 219 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 1: you know me, man, I'm reading from my Yankees bro. 220 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:09,360 Speaker 1: I don't care who else I know. I think, just 221 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 1: at this moment right now, it's so great to steep 222 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:16,720 Speaker 1: baseball back right now, stadiums are packed, every game is meaningful. Um. 223 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 1: And you know, like I was talking about before, there's 224 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 1: something to be said about having that momentum going into 225 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 1: the playoffs, right, not coasting in right, having to scratch 226 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:28,560 Speaker 1: from claw your way into that postseason, because once you 227 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 1: get there, you've been battling like this for the last month. 228 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,079 Speaker 1: It's nothing different. So I think for a lot of 229 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,680 Speaker 1: these squads, man, it's gonna be interesting that wild Card game. 230 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: It's gonna be something to watch, no doubt. His name 231 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 1: is Nick Swisher, one of the best in the business. 232 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 1: We appreciate you as always, Nick, and I can't wait 233 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 1: for the postseason in the World Series. I'm with you, 234 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: oh man, Rob, I mean, we got football going on. Man, 235 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 1: we got some playoff baseball. Let's get it, baby, I'm ready, 236 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 1: Let's do it. Fox Sports Radio has the best sports 237 00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 1: talk lineup in the nation. Catch all of our show, 238 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 1: said Fox Sports Radio dot com and within the I 239 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 1: Heart Radio app search f s R to listen live. 240 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 1: It's time for the Pocket Protector Central. The analytic numbers 241 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: you need to know, Well, maybe Anthony Masterson is his name. 242 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 1: B S Analytics is his game. What do you got 243 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: for me, Anthony? There's been a lot of inks build 244 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:25,680 Speaker 1: in recent weeks about who the a L m v 245 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 1: P will be spoiler alert, It'll be Otani. But what 246 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 1: about the senior circuit? As the final week of the 247 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 1: regular season has arrived, it seems like what was once 248 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:38,320 Speaker 1: a foregone conclusion has become a three horse race. The 249 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 1: Padres were baseball's darlings for about four months, and their 250 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:45,080 Speaker 1: vibrant young star Fernando Tatis Jr. Was their face. But 251 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 1: even as the Padres ship has run aground in the 252 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 1: last two months, Tatis is still putting up incredible numbers. 253 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,680 Speaker 1: He leads a circuit with forty one homers, has stolen 254 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 1: twenty five bases, and owns a p s. In fact, 255 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 1: only three players ever have at forty bombs and stolen 256 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 1: twenty five bags at age twenty two or younger Tatiss, 257 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 1: Ronald Acuna Jr. And Alex Rodriguez. But with the Padre slump, 258 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 1: new contenders have emerged, namely former m v P Bryce Harper. 259 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 1: The Philly star has surged in the second half, hitting 260 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 1: three forty seven with a twelve ops and nineteen home runs. 261 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 1: He leads the league in slugging and OPS as the 262 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 1: Phillies entered the final week two and a half games 263 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 1: back of first, and yet the childish Bambino Juan Soto 264 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 1: might steal it all. Like Harper, Soto has come alive 265 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: since the break, hitting three sixty nine with a ludicrous 266 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 1: five forty two on base percentage and at twelve OPS. 267 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 1: His seven point two wins above replacement also paces the league. 268 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 1: By the way, is a real possibility that both m 269 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 1: vps could come from teams that miss out on the postseason, 270 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: which hasn't happened since seven when Andre Dawson and George 271 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 1: Bell took home the hardware. The final week could truly 272 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 1: decided all. It was a big week in the Big League. 273 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 1: Who's Who's? Is it foul? Or is it fair? And 274 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 1: Now from mlb bro dot com, here's JR gamble. The St. 275 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 1: Louis Cardinals clints the second NL wild card spot as 276 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 1: their win streak hits seventeen on Tuesday night, having one 277 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 1: of the greatest runs by a team in Major League Baseball. 278 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 1: Timely hitting and pristine defense has been the key. But 279 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 1: j R. Is it foul or is it fair? To 280 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 1: call the St. Louis Cardinals a serious World Series contender. 281 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 1: That's fair that September eleven, the start of the St. 282 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 1: Louis Cardinals seventeen game win, Street fan Graft gave them 283 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 1: a five percent chance of making the postseason, and then 284 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 1: they started playing baseball in rail baseball, pitching to contact, 285 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 1: clutch hits, tremendous defense. No In Ronado and Paul gold 286 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 1: Schmidt have given the offense two consistent killers in the lineup, 287 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: and the emergence of Tyler O'Neill has also helped. St. 288 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 1: Louis always tends to find these late sleeper players that 289 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 1: helped them on their World Series runs. Defensively, you couldn't 290 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 1: have two better guys at the corner than Goldie and Ronado. 291 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 1: The Cardinals had the worst infield in baseball in two 292 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 1: thousand eighteen before adding Goldie and Arnado. Also, the best 293 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 1: defensive outfields usually win championships, at least that's been the 294 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 1: case the last two seasons. Has the Dodgers and Nationals 295 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: in two thousand nineteen right first in outfield outs above average. 296 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 1: That's how many outs of player has saved the last 297 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: five champions In fact, going back to two thousand sixteen 298 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 1: Chicago World Series, breaking that long on one and eight 299 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:07,840 Speaker 1: year drought. They were all top ten and outfield O 300 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:11,640 Speaker 1: A A. And the Cardinals are six this year. So 301 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:16,359 Speaker 1: that says World Series contender to me. Adding some championship 302 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 1: veteran arms and Adam Wainwright who keeps the ball on 303 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 1: the ground and in the park and at the trade 304 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: line going and getting John Lester who's had some big 305 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 1: games and clutch spots and veteran on a J hat 306 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 1: that's genius. And then you have the black ace, Jack Flaherty. 307 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 1: He's the wild card, the X factor because when healthy 308 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:40,880 Speaker 1: and he is right now, he's a shutdown performer. Remember 309 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,440 Speaker 1: he started this season eight and one before getting hurt. 310 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,119 Speaker 1: So if you ask me, are the Cardinals legitimate World 311 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:51,960 Speaker 1: Series contenders? I say St. Louis is a problem, a 312 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 1: big problem. Take out the papers in a track. It's 313 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,919 Speaker 1: time for trash talk Winter Twit with your chance to 314 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 1: trash anyone or anything in Major League Baseball.

Moreno for 318 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:21,360 Speaker 1: letting us down again for the seventh year in a row. 319 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:27,400 Speaker 1: No damn pitching. That's surround two iconic players, So he's 320 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 1: not happy. And here's the second one. It comes from 321 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:36,360 Speaker 1: at O. G. A one C E and he tweeted 322 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:40,400 Speaker 1: me this, I'm trashing David Bell for the Reds choking 323 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:45,680 Speaker 1: down the stretch, total lackluster effort in a playoff race. 324 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 1: And he's back for two more years. I'm not sure 325 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:55,399 Speaker 1: what direction they're going to try to go. Then you 326 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 1: have it.

When 329 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:11,159 Speaker 1: Rob was a newspaper columnist, he lived by this motto, 330 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 1: if I'm writing, I'm ripping. Let's bring in a writer 331 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:18,920 Speaker 1: and broadcaster, older new All right, now, let's welcome into 332 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,880 Speaker 1: the podcast a friend of mine, a mod Hicks from 333 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 1: k S d K in St. Louis, one of the 334 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:29,919 Speaker 1: best sportscasters in town and he follows the St. Louis 335 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 1: Cardinals of my Welcome to the podcast, my man, thanks 336 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,480 Speaker 1: for having me on. I'm glad to be here, no doubt. 337 00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:41,159 Speaker 1: What an amazing streak going into Wednesday. They won seventeen 338 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 1: games in a row. How amazing has it been, uh 339 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 1: to watch this? I mean, it's been pretty remarkable, rob 340 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:50,959 Speaker 1: that you think about it. On August eighth, the Cardinals 341 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 1: had a one point three chance to make it to 342 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: the playoffs. And here they are a month and a 343 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:57,920 Speaker 1: half later, and they clinched the second wild card spot 344 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 1: and have a legitimate chance to do some damage show. 345 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 1: It's pretty crazy to think about. What about the fans. 346 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 1: I've always said that St. Louis is the baseball capital 347 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 1: of the United States. I've said that because they draw 348 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 1: three million people every year. It's not a big city, 349 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,919 Speaker 1: you know, like New York or Chicago or l A 350 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 1: and everybody wears red. How would the fans are reacting 351 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:24,680 Speaker 1: to this? I think they are ecstatic. I mean, this 352 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 1: is a fan base that I think stuck it to 353 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,879 Speaker 1: the Cardinals earlier this year, and when it came to attendance, 354 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 1: normally their top three averaging forty two forty three thousand 355 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,000 Speaker 1: sayings per game. This year they were only averaging roughly 356 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:39,160 Speaker 1: twenty five thousand, partly due to COVID. But I think 357 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:41,640 Speaker 1: this is a fan base that was letting the front 358 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,200 Speaker 1: office know you haven't put a good product on the field. 359 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 1: We're not gonna support you right now. And now that 360 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 1: the Cardinals are winning their back, they're letting them know 361 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 1: we're happy with what we see and uh their believers 362 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 1: all over again. It's pretty amazing our guests as a 363 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:58,160 Speaker 1: mad Hicks from K S d K in St. Louis, 364 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 1: And uh, what would the realistic expectations? You talked about 365 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,880 Speaker 1: the fans being unhappy and you know when I saw 366 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 1: you this summer in St. Louis, uh at the game, 367 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 1: you know, Uh, they were floundering and and and I 368 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 1: don't think people thought of playoffs, So what were your expectations. 369 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 1: I think coming into this season, everybody expected the playoffs, 370 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 1: especially after the Cardinals got Nolan Ronado. So I mean 371 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 1: everybody had high hopes. We all thought here at the 372 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 1: station they would win ninety plus games, this would be 373 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 1: the top team in the NL Central, but that was 374 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,119 Speaker 1: far from the case as the Brewers ran away with this. 375 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,399 Speaker 1: But I think now we've shown that we are the 376 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 1: best team in our division. We just you know, had 377 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 1: such a big hold of client Olo. But I think 378 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 1: right now everybody is expecting them to beat the Dodgers 379 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:44,960 Speaker 1: or Giants. Just like we had high hopes coming into 380 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,400 Speaker 1: the season, they have high hopes for the postseason. Now, 381 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:51,440 Speaker 1: how about the biggest surprise on the offense? You mentioned Erronado? 382 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 1: Who who was it for the Cardinals? I think the 383 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,639 Speaker 1: guys that the guys we needed to stand out did that? 384 00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:01,159 Speaker 1: Nolan Arnado, Paul Goschmid's highly O'Neil. All those guys have 385 00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: thirty plus home runs. But I think the one guy 386 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 1: who we don't talk enough about, it's Harrison Bader. This 387 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 1: is a guy who struggled recently and especially in past 388 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 1: years with strikeouts in his batting garbage. But now games 389 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 1: this year he's batting two seventy, has forty nine runs 390 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 1: driven in and fifteen home runs. This guy has been 391 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 1: playing like a man possessed and it's really helped the 392 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 1: Cardinals out Right Now, all right, here we go? Not 393 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 1: a big question. Does this team have enough pitching to 394 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:31,920 Speaker 1: win the World Series? The Cardinals other than the Yankees, 395 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: no other franchisees won more championships, So people of St. 396 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:39,920 Speaker 1: Louis are all about championships. Can this team win a 397 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 1: championship and there's enough pitching there? I think it depends 398 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 1: on what way though, what Adam, Wayne Right and John 399 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:48,719 Speaker 1: Lester you get because here hear me out on this. 400 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: We have a pretty old starting rotation, but these guys 401 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,920 Speaker 1: have a lot of experience. In Miles michael Is, Jay 402 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,920 Speaker 1: Haab and Wayne Right and John Lester, I think those 403 00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 1: guys can get the job done. And then added bonus 404 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 1: for the cardinal is Jack Flaherty in Dakota Huts and 405 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 1: both of these guys are starting pitchers. They were dealing 406 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 1: with injuries all season long. They're coming back. Jordan Hicks 407 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 1: is making some starting um. He's making some start in 408 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 1: our Triple A organization in Memphis right now. So we 409 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 1: have starts. So our bullpen looks a lot better than 410 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,239 Speaker 1: it did at the beginning of the season because we 411 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: have starters who possibly won't be starting in the postseason 412 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,440 Speaker 1: if we make it, and they can go to the bullpen. 413 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 1: So I think they have all the tools necessary to 414 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 1: win a World Series this year. All right, His name 415 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:33,879 Speaker 1: is A Mod Hicks, my friend, my buddy from K 416 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: S d K in St. Louis and uh Ama. Thanks 417 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 1: so much for the insight. We appreciate you, Rob, Thanks 418 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 1: for having me on to look forward to this next time. 419 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 1: Now bringing the closer. Here's why MLB it's better than 420 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:56,400 Speaker 1: the NFL or NBA, and it isn't even close. Reason 421 00:23:56,520 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: number five thousand why baseball is better in the NBA 422 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:05,359 Speaker 1: in the NFL. Just listen to the radio, listen to 423 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:09,159 Speaker 1: the broadcast of the games. I know people think the 424 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 1: announcers get excited when they're calling football or basketball, but 425 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:18,159 Speaker 1: but not as exciting as baseball. And you know what, 426 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 1: baseball play by play can be so exciting that you 427 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:28,439 Speaker 1: can actually listen in another language and still get goose bumps, 428 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 1: still feel good about it. Listen to my man in 429 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:35,639 Speaker 1: New York, Ricky Ricardo, who does the Yankees games on 430 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 1: the Spanish language station Swing, Are you putting left feet 431 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 1: on that?
