Here with TK tonight, this is 11 00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 2: Pinstrip Territory. 12 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:33,520 Speaker 3: Wanted to talk. 13 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:36,640 Speaker 4: That's all.

I walk by the 19 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 1: red carpet on Hollywood Boulevard the other day, or walked 20 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 1: through it and manifested a little bit for myself. 21 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 5: It was pretty cool. 22 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:07,039 Speaker 1: But just things are happening, watching the World Baseball Classic. 23 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:08,319 Speaker 1: Getting ready for baseball season. 24 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,319 Speaker 2: Man, I can't wait. We're less than two weeks away, 25 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,760 Speaker 2: but it is still spring training. And I want to 26 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 2: emphasize that because I had some brainiac tweet me today 27 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 2: and he said, I thought you told your viewers that 28 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:25,080 Speaker 2: Ryan Weathers was going to be good. And Ryan Weathers 29 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 2: had another tough day today. But to that tweeter, whatever 30 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,040 Speaker 2: you want to call it, to that guy, I want 31 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 2: to just share something with you. Okay, I'm going to 32 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:40,680 Speaker 2: give you. This is gonna be my annual rant about 33 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 2: why spring training statistics do not matter and why people 34 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 2: who put too much stock into spring training statistics are 35 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 2: really wasting their energy and their precious sanity. So I'm 36 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 2: gonna give you a couple of concrete examples here. Aaron 37 00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 2: Judge twenty twenty four, and it's five minutes of research 38 00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 2: by five minutes of research. Aaron Judge twenty twenty four 39 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 2: hit one seventy four with one home run in twenty 40 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 2: three bats. He had the abdominal injury panic. You remember 41 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 2: regular season hits, fifty eight home runs, wins, the American 42 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:18,359 Speaker 2: League MVP Junior Caminero last year, all the panic from 43 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:22,639 Speaker 2: the twelve Rays fans saying he hit one forty nine, maybe. 44 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:23,920 Speaker 3: We shouldn't rush him to the bigs. 45 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,639 Speaker 2: He had a horrible spring hits forty five home runs. 46 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:30,079 Speaker 2: Brian wu last year struggle in spring training four point 47 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 2: nine six cra Cy Young contender two point nine four 48 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 2: ERA during the season, was pretty much the most consistent 49 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 2: pitcher in the American League, just just time after timeout 50 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 2: quality start Hunter Green last year spring ERA of almost 51 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 2: six five point five seven regular season the RA two 52 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 2: point seven to six. Hezus Lozardo last year nine point 53 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 2: four to nine ERA in spring training, three point nine 54 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 2: to two during the regular season. Now it works the 55 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 2: other way too. Guys can have a great spring and 56 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,079 Speaker 2: then a bad seas In Massira Tanaka back in twenty seventeen, 57 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 2: he was untouchable. If you watch that, he was just 58 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 2: blowing the four seamer by people, But when it came 59 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 2: to the regular season he couldn't do it. Zero point 60 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 2: three eight ERA in spring, four point seven four ERA 61 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 2: in the regular season, career worse thirty five home runs allowed. 62 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 2: Greg Byrd that same spring four to fifty one average. 63 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,959 Speaker 2: Eight home runs led Major League Baseball. 64 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 3: At extra base hits. 65 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 2: Then he went six for sixty to start this season. 66 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 2: Austin Wells three forty eight last year in spring training 67 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 2: with six home runs hit two nineteen during the regular season, 68 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 2: only twenty one home runs over the course of four 69 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 2: hundred plus at bats. Jonathan India last year looked like 70 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 2: an absolute stud. I remember thinking many Yankee should picked 71 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 2: him up three eighty eight in spring training two thirty 72 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 2: three during the regular season. So, TK, how much weight 73 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 2: do you put on spring training results or are you 74 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 2: looking for something else? 75 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 5: Derek, I'm sorry, man, I'm just My biggest takeaway home 76 00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 5: laughing is. 77 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 1: That you added the Costanza sound from the last show 78 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: because it's so good and I think you can apply 79 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 1: to so many It's like my favorite scene in that show. 80 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 1: But I think when you look at spring training, man, look, 81 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 1: would it be nice to have good stats in spring training? 82 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 6: Sure? 83 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 1: I guess for a player gives them confidence to see 84 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 1: on the page that he's performing well. But the thing 85 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: that I'm looking at at spring training is first of all, health, 86 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:26,599 Speaker 1: how are you feeling physically? And mainly the eye test, 87 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,359 Speaker 1: how do you look? I don't really care if the 88 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: results aren't there, but from what I've seen from Ryan 89 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: Weathers and I realize that the stats have not shown this, 90 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: he's got pretty electric stuff and I think that he's 91 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: going to be a weapon for us this year. Okay, 92 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: then you got like Carlos LeGrande, who's got great stats, 93 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,160 Speaker 1: who also looks to be a weapon. But I don't know, 94 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,160 Speaker 1: like you just pointed out, when he gets into the season, 95 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: is he going to be a erratic and not have command? 96 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,119 Speaker 1: Who the hell knows. But my big thing about spring 97 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 1: training is health. Guys are working on things mechanically, they're 98 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,280 Speaker 1: making adjustments, they're working on pitches, they're getting ready for 99 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,279 Speaker 1: the season. When you're trying to make the team, right, 100 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: you're a fringe guy, your approach is a little bit different. 101 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:04,479 Speaker 1: You're obviously trying to play well to make the team. 102 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,040 Speaker 1: But if you're already an established star, an established player 103 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:08,600 Speaker 1: on the team, you just want to work on a 104 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 1: couple things and get ready to go. 105 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 5: Man, it's really not that deep, you know. As the 106 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 5: Kids says. 107 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: So I'm kind of with you, Derek, Like, is it 108 00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:16,359 Speaker 1: nice to play well in spring training? 109 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, of course, But I'm not saying it's the end 110 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 5: all of you all. 111 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,160 Speaker 2: Jay Dovema says, if you want the credit, God to 112 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 2: take the blame. So yeah, I agree with you. And also, 113 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 2: no scouting reports in spring training, right, these guys are 114 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 2: just like they might throw fifteen fastballs in a row, 115 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 2: because that's the day to work on fastballs. 116 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: Right. 117 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,919 Speaker 2: We've seen Ryan Weathers struggle out of the stretch. He 118 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,600 Speaker 2: might be working on something new out of the stretch 119 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,280 Speaker 2: that we don't know about because we didn't watch him 120 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 2: out of the stretch last year, or he hasn't pitched 121 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,279 Speaker 2: much the last couple of years. So I'm just not 122 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 2: worried in the least bit about his spring training numbers. 123 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 2: I think he's great. I think he's you know, he's 124 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 2: throwing a hundred and you know from the left side. 125 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 2: I think he's going to be fine. Another guy, and 126 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 2: you mentioned this the eye test, I want to talk 127 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:02,359 Speaker 2: about Cam Schlitler, because Cam Schlitzler from the eye test 128 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 2: looks absolutely astonishing this spring. His stuff is insane. He's 129 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 2: got ten strikeouts and six innings and he that's fifteen 130 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 2: strikeouts per nine for the mathematically inclined, and he looks 131 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 2: like an ace dude, Like he doesn't look like a 132 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 2: He's not even technically a rookie because he passed the 133 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 2: innings marker or whatever last year that you need to 134 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 2: qualify as a rookie, but his first full season and 135 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 2: his first full season, to me, it might equate to 136 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 2: kind of like Dan Marino's first full season in the 137 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 2: NFL where he broke the touchdown record. This guy looks 138 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:42,720 Speaker 2: to me like a young Roger Clemens, a young Kurt Shilling, 139 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 2: and I saw those guys when they were young. I'm 140 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,719 Speaker 2: telling you, one hundred mile an hour gas with great 141 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:52,359 Speaker 2: breaking pitches and throws strikes. And to top it off, 142 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 2: he's got the prototypical frame and he's got the attitude. 143 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 2: Remember his tweet last year, that chick from Ben MGM 144 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 2: who was like, you know, like, oh, red socks gonna win. 145 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,159 Speaker 2: He's like not this year. I love that he talks smack. 146 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 2: I love that he's got the attitude. That's exactly the 147 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 2: type of mentality that you want in a starting pitcher. 148 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 2: That's the type of guy who sacks up in the 149 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 2: playoffs like you did last year. And right now he 150 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 2: is penciled in as the number two man in the rotation. 151 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 2: If you kind of look at things and project them out, 152 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 2: it goes Max Freed, Cam Schlittler, Ryan Weathers will warrant 153 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 2: your thoughts. 154 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 1: I'm so excited about camp Schlutler. Obviously, you saw what 155 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 1: he did last year against Boston in the Wildcard series. 156 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 5: Looked absolutely unbelievable. 157 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: But he's having one of those springs where the stats 158 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 1: do look good, but he's also passing the eye tests. 159 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: He's doing both. The stuff looks great. It looks like 160 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 1: that he's worked on some of the secondary pitches. The 161 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: cutter looks amazing. You can tell that he's worked in 162 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 1: the winter. He's maybe even I don't know if he's 163 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 1: worked with Matt Blake himself, but they I'm sure they've 164 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 1: gotten together at some point to work on a few things. 165 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 1: But I think and we're assuming health guys, for all 166 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 1: of the everybody, because then having these conversations isn't fun 167 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 1: if you just think guys are gonna get hurt. 168 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 5: But we're assuming health. 169 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: But if healthy, I anticipate he's gonna be an All 170 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: Star pitcher. I do think he's gonna be an All 171 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: Star this year, and I think that yes, he will 172 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 1: end the season. Has probably at least the number two 173 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 1: to me mechanically, and I sent Derek a video about this, 174 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 1: like comparing mechanics mechanically. He reminds me of Glass now 175 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 1: so much, especially in when he was in Tampa. Reminds 176 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 1: me of Glass now so much the stuff. Obviously, the 177 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 1: frame to me, he's like floor is tyler glass. 178 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 5: Now, that's his floor. 179 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: And Tyler Glass now, last time I checked, is a 180 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 1: pretty damn good pitcher. Guy's probably like top fifteen in 181 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: the league at this moment right now, But I think 182 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:39,559 Speaker 1: camp Sluler is gonna be so good. And I think that, 183 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 1: let's assume that there's a baseball season next year, twenty 184 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 1: twenty seven, He's probably the opening day starter. He might 185 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 1: emerge as the legitimate Yankees Number one, and he might 186 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 1: emerge as one of the top guys in the league 187 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 1: this season. I mean, obviously Cole is kind of getting 188 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 1: older in his career. Max Freed is brand new to 189 00:08:57,920 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 1: the team, but he is on the older side as well. 190 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 1: Camp Slitler has a chance of being one of those 191 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 1: really exciting young starters in the game right now. 192 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:09,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm loving it. The stuff is for real, and 193 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:13,439 Speaker 2: I'm predicting a big season from him again, assuming health, 194 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:18,719 Speaker 2: fifteen to seventeen wins ERA of between three and three 195 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:20,960 Speaker 2: and a half for camp slightly this year, That's what 196 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,439 Speaker 2: I'm predicting. Another guy who I want to talk about, 197 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 2: who's looked great this spring in terms of the eye 198 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 2: test is Carlos Lagrne. He's a talk of camp. His 199 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 2: average his average fastball the other day was one hundred 200 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 2: and one point five miles an hour his average fastball. 201 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, and when we assume health, it's tough. It's tough to. 202 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 2: Do that consistently and stay healthy. We've seen a lot 203 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 2: of guys come up and throw one hundred plus and 204 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 2: get hurt. I don't want him wasting those bullets in 205 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 2: the minor leagues. If he's ready, if he's ready, if 206 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 2: the scouts in their internal meetings are like, well, he's ready, 207 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 2: we just don't have a spot in the rotation him. 208 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 2: I don't care make a spot for him the bullpen, 209 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 2: because if you've got like a Mason Miller level fastball, 210 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 2: you can get major league hitters out in big situations. 211 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 2: Velocity plays. It is the biggest indicator in pitching success. 212 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 2: And he gets potential to be, you know, you know, 213 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 2: one of the hardest throwers in the league this year. 214 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 2: And he's got a great change up, and he's got 215 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 2: a great breaking ball, and he's been throwing strikes and 216 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 2: last time out four shutout innings. Twenty two years old. 217 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 2: He's got the size another guy with the frame six 218 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 2: foot seven, two forty eighth Carlos LeGrande. Would you rather 219 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 2: he stretch out in the minor leagues as a starting 220 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 2: pitcher and be the first man up when someone inevitably 221 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 2: goes down to step into the rotation, kind of like 222 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 2: Cam Schlitzler did last year when he came up and 223 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 2: forced his way in and potentially give the Yankees a 224 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 2: third or fourth ACE level pitcher. You know, if he 225 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 2: if everything pans out, ACE level stuff for sure, But. 226 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 3: If if he does that, the. 227 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,679 Speaker 2: Aches would have like, you know, potentially three or four 228 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 2: aces going into the playoffs. You know, we look at 229 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 2: cold maybe full strength, you look at you know, Cam 230 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:14,959 Speaker 2: Schlitzler potentially has, like he know's the ACE level stuff. 231 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 2: Maybe he becomes an ace. He pitched like an ACE 232 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 2: last year. Max Freed obviously, who knows what you get 233 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,839 Speaker 2: out of Louis Heal or Ryan Weathers like these are 234 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 2: good arms. But you know Lagron is another guy throwing 235 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:30,199 Speaker 2: a hundred or do you set him up as potentially 236 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 2: a dominant bullpen guy by the end of the season 237 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 2: by getting his feet wet in April in the major leagues, 238 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 2: let him pitch some low leverage stuff. 239 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:40,959 Speaker 3: Let him throw eighty or ninety innings out of the 240 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:41,560 Speaker 3: pen this year. 241 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 2: Throw two innings at the time, you know, stay stretched out, 242 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 2: so next year you can throw one hundred and fifty 243 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 2: as a starter. What are your thoughts on the Grandy 244 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 2: and how they should use him? 245 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 1: Because I think he's ready, I think for this season 246 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 1: in the bullpen. That doesn't mean I don't think he'll 247 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: be a starter eventually, or I wouldn't want him to 248 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 1: be a starter eventually. 249 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,960 Speaker 5: I absolutely would. I think he's got great stuff. 250 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,440 Speaker 1: And to me, the thing that's impressed me the most 251 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 1: about him almost is the offspeat stuff. 252 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:04,600 Speaker 5: His fastball is elite. 253 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,319 Speaker 1: I mean the guy obviously throwing triple digits, but not 254 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 1: only that. Hold on Bryce Harper, Uh oh, he just 255 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:13,680 Speaker 1: flew out at the wall. Sorry, I got the game. 256 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 1: I got the game going simultaneously. Here comes judge, but 257 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 1: with Legron Hay. Like the fastball is fast, obviously he's 258 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 1: thrown like one hundred and two, but it's heavy, you 259 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like he's blown it by guys 260 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 1: like not every one hundred and two is the same 261 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 1: one hundred and two, if that makes sense. Like I've 262 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:32,439 Speaker 1: seen guys so really really hard. But these are major leaguers. 263 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 5: You know. 264 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 1: We saw Raphael Devers turn one hundred and two mile 265 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,080 Speaker 1: an hour fastball against Chapman and Yankee Stadium for a 266 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 1: home run. Like, they can still hit it if it's straight, 267 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 1: but Legrone has got some spin on it, man, and 268 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,959 Speaker 1: it's blown it by guys for sure. So with him, 269 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,439 Speaker 1: my thing is like, Okay, Aaron Judge is gonna be 270 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 1: thirty four years old. It's his next month, right, He's 271 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 1: not gonna be around forever. You gotta win right now. 272 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: If Legron Hay can help you win games, and if 273 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 1: he can have big outs for you in the season 274 00:12:57,640 --> 00:12:59,719 Speaker 1: and especially in the postseason, and you can get them 275 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 1: that experience as a twenty two year old playing in 276 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 1: the major leagues, playing in high leverage situations, playing in October, 277 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,200 Speaker 1: then that's all going to be valuable things. And I 278 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,199 Speaker 1: think that for him in his second year in the 279 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 1: league as a starter, potentially that would be beneficial for 280 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,200 Speaker 1: him to get that experience. So for me, absolutely in 281 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 1: the bullpen this season, and then yeah, you can just 282 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,720 Speaker 1: stretch him back out to a starter if you wanted 283 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 1: to later on. 284 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 2: So Aaron Judge just ripped one into the left field 285 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 2: corner for Team USA. Who is threatening here? I want 286 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 2: to talk about one more topic and then we'll talk 287 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 2: about the WBC a little bit more. Jason Dominguez has 288 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 2: been on fire this spring. He's making some improvements from 289 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:38,199 Speaker 2: the right side. Last I checked, he wasn't hitting for 290 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 2: a high average against the lefties, but he did a 291 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 2: home run right handed the other day. He's looked to 292 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 2: me at times a little bit better in the outfield. 293 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,440 Speaker 2: I've watched every game that I could. He's also butchered 294 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,680 Speaker 2: a couple of them, so maybe you know about the 295 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 2: same in the outfield. Last year he made some nice 296 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 2: plays too, but he also was a butcher at times. 297 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 2: Do you think he's better off as the fourth outfielder 298 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 2: in the major leagues and you know, maybe getting some 299 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 2: time at DH to get to keep Stanton rested, keep 300 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 2: Judge off of his feet. You know, he's Judge has 301 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 2: been with the World Baseball Classic. You know he's he's 302 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 2: playing competitive. You're probably don't want to get him off 303 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,080 Speaker 2: his feet more during the summertime, especially early on in 304 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 2: the in the spring, so he's not worn out by 305 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 2: the end of the year. Does it make more sense 306 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 2: I have a quality player like Dominguez in the major 307 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 2: leagues rather than Randall Gritchik Or do you think that 308 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 2: it's better for him to play every day in Triple A? 309 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 2: And if nobody gets hurt, do you think they deal 310 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 2: him like if he's playing well Triple A, I mean, 311 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 2: could his run be over? Or are they gonna just 312 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 2: waste him the whole year in triple A? 313 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 1: You know, it's tough to say because I really do 314 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: like Jason Domingez and I was like you, Derek, when 315 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 1: they first signed him. 316 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:45,119 Speaker 5: I was really excited about him as a prospect. 317 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 1: And you know, he is like exactly the kind of 318 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 1: player that'd be good to have. 319 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 5: A switch hitter. 320 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 1: He's fast, he's athletic defensively, there's a little bit there 321 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: to be desired. But I think with you know, Jason 322 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 1: Dimingez and I even heard the man I'm about to 323 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 1: reference to talk about this, but he's getting the Clint 324 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 1: Fraser treatment, which is really really sad. I think the 325 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,280 Speaker 1: mistake they made with Clint Fraser is, you know, either 326 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: play him or trade him kind of thing. And with 327 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 1: with Dominga's it's you know, I understand that they'd rather 328 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: have him in Triple A, getting every day at bats, 329 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 1: every day reps and rather than him sit the bench 330 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 1: in the majors, Like how. 331 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:21,640 Speaker 5: Would that help him? 332 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 1: But you know, at the same time, you got Spencer Jones, 333 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 1: you got Christiam, you got Pellinger, you got Judge, you 334 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 1: got the MAGA. 335 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 5: Like the outfield, you know, grit chick. 336 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 1: Now y outfield is really crowded, and I'm just sort 337 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 1: of like, well, you gotta trade him or trade Spencer Jones, 338 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 1: one of the two. You can't just dfa him when 339 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: he turns twenty six or twenty seven and lose him 340 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 1: for nothing, like they did with Clint Fraser, like they 341 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 1: did with Miguel Landuharr. I get so annoyed with the 342 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 1: Yankees when they do that. They let their prospects rot. 343 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 1: And I'm not saying that it's like they do that 344 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 1: all the time. But look at the run they gave 345 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 1: Anthony Volpi. But you think about it this way, Derek 346 00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 1: Aaron Judge wasn't going to make the team into that 347 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 1: seventeen until there was an injury in the outfield, which 348 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 1: I believe was Elsbury. 349 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 5: That he made the team, and then he just took 350 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 5: his chance and ran with it. 351 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 1: Cam Schlittler wasn't going to make the team until somebody 352 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 1: went down and they needed a starting pitcher. 353 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 5: You know what happened to start in the postseason. 354 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 2: Aaron Judge took over for a Rod. When a Rod 355 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 2: was yeafade, Aaron Judge took over his spot. 356 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 3: So it's like, just do. 357 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 5: It, just do it or trade him. I don't lose 358 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 5: him for nothing, is my point. 359 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I hope he gets a chance, but unfortunately that 360 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 2: would come at somebody getting hurt. But uh, all right, 361 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 2: We're gonna get a quick word from Fox one and 362 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 2: then back to watch a little bit of Team USA 363 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 2: and just kind of talk about who could be public 364 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 2: Enemy number one this year, especially with Anthony Volpi not around. 365 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 2: We'll see who the Yankees come up with.

That'll be my immediate response. I'll 390 00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 2: be sad for a millisecond. I'm like, yeah, that would 391 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 2: have been nice. Oh well, getting Aaron Judge back. 392 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:06,399 Speaker 3: On the roster. 393 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, I share the same feeling as you, but I 394 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 1: also am like I want to see Aaron Judge win something. 395 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 5: It's kind of like you know, Otani won it. 396 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 1: So they're going to compare it to that Ohleran Judge 397 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:21,679 Speaker 1: is includes you can't win, and then you know the 398 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 1: same thing. 399 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 5: It's like, you know what it is. 400 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 1: It's exactly like for all for all my Knick fans 401 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 1: out there, they won the NBA Cup this season, which 402 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:30,399 Speaker 1: is nothing. You know, it's not the NBA Finals, but 403 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 1: they won something. So I'm like, can Aaron Judge just 404 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: win something? Like maybe it'll give him the Jews the 405 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 1: confidence to know how to win. I don't know, maybe 406 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:41,920 Speaker 1: he'll learn something, but like, I just want to see 407 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:45,440 Speaker 1: him win something, so I'll be sad for him specifically. 408 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 5: Everybody else can go kick rocks. 409 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,919 Speaker 2: Yeah whatever, I've got a hot take for you. Logan 410 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 2: Webb is pitching for a team USA, and even though 411 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 2: they're on the same team, I gotta feel an Aaron Judge, 412 00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 2: like as a competitor, is studying him for Opening Day, 413 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 2: like because he wants to rock his shit. I think 414 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 2: that's what's going to happen, all right. So here is 415 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:06,000 Speaker 2: Steve from Italy. 416 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,879 Speaker 4: Hey, Derek, it's Stephen from Italy. And you knew I 417 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 4: had to call about this whole Italy and the World 418 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:17,160 Speaker 4: Baseball Classic thing. So you know, I'm American and I'm 419 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 4: from New Jersey, but I've lived in Italy a long 420 00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,919 Speaker 4: time now and I have to kind of offend my 421 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:27,200 Speaker 4: adopted country, in part because this baseball success is finally 422 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 4: getting the sport noticed in Italy, where they do play baseball, 423 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:31,639 Speaker 4: but it's really marginal. 424 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 6: They like to kick a ball into a net for 425 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 6: some reason, which is an if you're a game, but 426 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:39,919 Speaker 6: that's another thing anyway. So I just, you know, for 427 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 6: your callers who are saying that it's really embarrassing to 428 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 6: lose to Italy, I just want to remind them if 429 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 6: the World Baseball Classic had existed in say the late 430 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 6: forties early fifties, you know, the Italian team, based on 431 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:55,399 Speaker 6: the current rules, would include all three DiMaggio brothers in 432 00:19:55,440 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 6: the outfield, Yogi Burra behind the plate, and Philoso shortstop. 433 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 6: So you know, you know a little bit of respect here, 434 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 6: especially when you know the team is kick your butts. 435 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 6: So so that's all, but. 436 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:15,480 Speaker 2: Anyway, appreciate it. Stephen from Italy a great call, as 437 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 2: always reminding us that Italy has historically had some badass players, 438 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 2: but in one game, anything can happen. I mean, you know, 439 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 2: you got passquatch running into a couple of home runs. 440 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 1: Uh. 441 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:30,879 Speaker 3: But yeah, I think that. 442 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 6: Uh. 443 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:35,439 Speaker 2: I feel like USA, if they can get to the 444 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:38,119 Speaker 2: to the championship, I like their chances to win it 445 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 2: because of the just the talent they have on their team. 446 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 2: But I think that sometimes super teams like this can 447 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:45,640 Speaker 2: kind of take other teams lightly. Yeah. 448 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:47,919 Speaker 1: I think also the whole debacle with the you know, 449 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 1: we already punched our ticket and and it just looked 450 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:52,640 Speaker 1: even worse when DeRosa was like, oh there's a false 451 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:56,679 Speaker 1: snaire O. Great play Alex Bregman there, but false snared 452 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 1: it stop. Just he doubled down and it looked worse. 453 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:01,360 Speaker 1: But anyway, it doesn't really matter to me. There's three 454 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 1: legitimate teams that can win the whole Thing's Japan, there's 455 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 1: the United States, and there's a Dominican Republic. 456 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:07,520 Speaker 5: All right, those are the three clubs I can win. 457 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:11,640 Speaker 1: It's kind of just that and everybody else. The thing 458 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 1: about like you know, the Italian team, it's it's not 459 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:16,880 Speaker 1: like a bunch of scrubs like they do have major 460 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 1: league guys. It's it's like major league guys that are 461 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:22,720 Speaker 1: Italian American that weren't good enough to play for USA, 462 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 1: So I think they have like a little bit of 463 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 1: a chip on their shoulder. 464 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:27,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, and I was talking to Derek about this like 465 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 5: in the green room. 466 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 1: But I'll just be interested to see in the next 467 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 1: CBA if they try to negotiate something that they can 468 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,680 Speaker 1: participate in the Olympics. And the only way that I 469 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 1: think you could somehow do that is you would have 470 00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 1: to kind of do what hockey does, where they take 471 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,880 Speaker 1: instead of an All Star week, you know, there's an 472 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 1: Olympic break, and they figure it out that way, and 473 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,119 Speaker 1: the Olympics are going to be in LA, so the 474 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 1: infrastructure exists already to do it. 475 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 5: It'll be very interesting to see because I think. 476 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 1: More and more players are going to be behind that 477 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 1: because the hockey players when they were doing their CBA, 478 00:21:57,560 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 1: they told the commissioner it was really important to them 479 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 1: to be able to participate in that. So it's just 480 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,440 Speaker 1: gonna be interesting to see how that works out. But yeah, 481 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,160 Speaker 1: I mean, look, I think the USA have a really 482 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,359 Speaker 1: good chance to win. They obviously caught a break with 483 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 1: the whole Italy Mexico game, you know, so don't Bobby win. 484 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,200 Speaker 5: Almost got there, but like, don't take this second chance lightly. 485 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,440 Speaker 5: I guess you got to get out there and win something. 486 00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 2: You're about five seconds ahead of me on the thing, 487 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:22,680 Speaker 2: so spoiler. 488 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,920 Speaker 3: Appreciate spoiler alert.
