1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,600 Speaker 1: Ladies and juggle the welcome here. 2 00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:10,600 Speaker 2: That's being sad, all right, Good morning, everybody, Good morning. 3 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:15,320 Speaker 2: Today is August twenty seventh. We got our morning voicemail 4 00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:18,759 Speaker 2: show here, So you guys might have noticed that yesterday 5 00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:23,680 Speaker 2: I broke out this morning monologue layout for the voicemail show. 6 00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:26,640 Speaker 2: I wanted everything to kind of have a consistent look 7 00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:29,760 Speaker 2: with what you see on the postgame show or when 8 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:33,879 Speaker 2: we do conversations. So you got topics on the right 9 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:36,959 Speaker 2: of your screen, and usually going to be a few 10 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:40,519 Speaker 2: baseball topics. But today I'm going to break into some 11 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:44,000 Speaker 2: behind the scenes stuff because today's been a crazy day. 12 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:48,000 Speaker 2: It's it's one of those days where I'm just worn 13 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 2: out and it's ten to twenty in the morning. So 14 00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 2: doing this show, especially doing a morning and evening show, 15 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:58,160 Speaker 2: it takes a lot of time, takes a lot of energy, 16 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 2: and I need every bit of my energy to execute 17 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 2: it the way I want to execute it. And for 18 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 2: the last seven weeks, a good friend of mine has 19 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 2: been staying in my house while his new place was 20 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 2: under construction or whatever. And honestly, it's been fun to 21 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 2: have a friend around, but utterly exhausting at the same time. 22 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 2: And also I think kind of detrimental to the show 23 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 2: at times because of various sounds in the background and 24 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,319 Speaker 2: things like that. Look, it's good to have company. My 25 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 2: buddy Rob, he's he's a good guy, but he's not 26 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 2: a baseball fan. And so you know, I'm watching baseball 27 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 2: in the studio right behind me, and he's out there, 28 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 2: and you know, he's got a lot of questions. He 29 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:37,680 Speaker 2: doesn't understand everything that's going on. So a lot of times, 30 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 2: when I'm writing the show and I'm working on all 31 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 2: the stuff I got to work on, I'm also answering 32 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 2: his questions, trying to be a good host, and in 33 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 2: more ways, we want a good host for the show 34 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 2: and a good host of a guest. And for the 35 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 2: last seven weeks, he's been staying with me, and you know, 36 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 2: he's on the he's he was in the room right 37 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 2: behind that live on air sign, and he works tech 38 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 2: support at night, so he'd be on the phone talking 39 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 2: while I'm doing my show, and I would hear it, 40 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 2: and it would occasionally throw me off. I couldn't do 41 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 2: my morning voicemail shows as early as I would like, because, 42 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 2: like I said, works the night shift, and he would 43 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 2: sleep till like nine or ten in the morning, so 44 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 2: it kind of threw me off. I was trying not 45 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 2: to wake him up all that good stuff. But he 46 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 2: finally moved out this morning to his new place. I 47 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 2: helped him, and then I did a massive cleaning of 48 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 2: our shared space and I'm starting to re establish my routine. 49 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 2: So we are back, baby, we are back, and I'm 50 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 2: appreciating the freedom to walk around my house without pants 51 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 2: on again. All right, let's talk about tonight's pitching matchup, 52 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 2: because we got Garrett Colego and he is five and 53 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 2: two with a three point seven to two ERA this 54 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 2: season in eleven starts. I obviously missed the first portion 55 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,839 Speaker 2: of the year with that edema in his elbow, and 56 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 2: you know that's an issue, but he seems to be 57 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 2: working through it, seems to be coming into his own 58 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 2: again and you know, really throwing the ball well. Last 59 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 2: time out. The command wasn't great, but he's put together, 60 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,639 Speaker 2: as you can see, seven pretty good games now four 61 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 2: and one with a two point four to three ERA 62 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,680 Speaker 2: in his last seven starts forty and two thirds innings, 63 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 2: forty strike at, forty three strikeouts, excuse me, and he 64 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:19,920 Speaker 2: will be going up against somebody that I know a 65 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 2: lot of Yankees fans wanted to sign several years ago, 66 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,359 Speaker 2: and I just kind of wanted to show you the 67 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 2: path not taken for Patrick Corbin, because Corbin was a 68 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 2: guy who was a free agent at twenty eight and 69 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 2: a lot of Yankees fans thought he would be perfect. 70 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,840 Speaker 2: I was one of those Yankees fans. You know. You 71 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 2: look at his numbers with Arizona in twenty eighteen, he 72 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 2: had a three point one five ERA. He had two 73 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 2: hundred and forty six strikeouts in two hundred innings, so 74 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 2: I mean it was a monster season. Becomes a free 75 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 2: agent and with Washington he's pretty much been a disaster. 76 00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 2: As we pull up his numbers here, you see that 77 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 2: he is now forty four and seventy six with a 78 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 2: five point one pin one er since joining the Nationals. Obviously, 79 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 2: he was part of that twenty nineteen team that won 80 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 2: the World Series, but he's had some years where he's 81 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 2: at sixteen losses, nineteen losses, six point three to one ERA. 82 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 2: You can't blame all of this on being on a 83 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 2: bad team. So that was a signing that you know 84 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 2: a lot of us wanted that didn't work out. So 85 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:28,280 Speaker 2: I just wanted to kind of put that out there 86 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 2: as we approach free agency is going to be coming 87 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 2: in just a few months. I know a lot of 88 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 2: people are thinking about who should we get, who should 89 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 2: we sign. Honestly, give the mighty to Soto. We know 90 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:37,839 Speaker 2: he's good. 91 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 1: Uh. 92 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 2: And also we're going to be having an old friend 93 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 2: on foul Territory today. Kyle Higashioka will be on the show. 94 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 2: He has had a little bit of a power surge 95 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 2: this season with the San Diego Padres. He's got fifteen 96 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 2: home runs in one hundred and ninety three at bats. Now. 97 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 2: He doesn't hit for a high average still hitting two 98 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 2: twenty eight, doesn't get on base a time seventy five 99 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 2: on base percentage, but I mean he's been very valuable 100 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 2: for them. He's gotten some very big hits and a 101 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 2: career high in home runs already with a month left, 102 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 2: and he's only played in sixty five games. So his 103 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,479 Speaker 2: best year with the Yankees was ten home runs. He 104 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,839 Speaker 2: did that three times in a row. He had a 105 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 2: three home run game. But he's broken out with the 106 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,119 Speaker 2: power stroke this year. So he will be on Foul 107 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 2: Territory today one o'clock Eastern tune in for that. Let's 108 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 2: get to your voice mails again, New York City. I 109 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 2: cannot believe at the ball. 110 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 1: Let's do it. 111 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 2: Hey, Derek Tom, I'm a huge fan. I watch every show. 112 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 2: You're doing. Awesome job. 113 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 1: Listen, This thing with Austin Wells not playing every day 114 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 1: really getting ridiculous. 115 00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 2: Every time he's been playing, he gets a great opportunity. 116 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,599 Speaker 2: We need to play him every day. I appreciate the 117 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 2: call and the kind words. So here's the deal. Catchers 118 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 2: can't play every day. It's a really demanding position physically, 119 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 2: and they need a lot of rest. And Austin Wells 120 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 2: is a really good defensive catcher and a really good hitter. 121 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,359 Speaker 2: So the Yankees are in kind of a conundrum. A 122 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 2: lot of times in the major leagues, the starting catcher, 123 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,839 Speaker 2: the primary catcher, catcher one A will play, you know, 124 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 2: one hundred two, one hundred and twenty games, and they'll 125 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 2: miss forty games just simply because the position is so demanding. 126 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 2: But Austin Wells swing might be too good for that. 127 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 2: The Yankees might have to look at putting him at 128 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,479 Speaker 2: first base at some point. I know we have Ben 129 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 2: Rice who's had some big moments. He had the three 130 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,599 Speaker 2: home run game that made me shave my head. But 131 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,160 Speaker 2: I really like Austin Wells's swing and I want to 132 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,160 Speaker 2: see it more often. And I agree with you that 133 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 2: you'd prefer to have that bat in the lineup every day, 134 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 2: But as long as he's a catcher, that's just not 135 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,359 Speaker 2: going to happen. Unfortunately. However, when we get to the playoffs, 136 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 2: it'll be interesting to see if the Yankees choose one 137 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 2: guy to start pretty much every day, because you have 138 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 2: some off days mixed in and so you don't have 139 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 2: to worry about the wear and tear as much. And 140 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 2: I think Austin Wells should be that guy. Travigno has 141 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 2: shown that he's a solid catcher. He's got a little 142 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 2: bit of a hit tool. This year, he's been swinging 143 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 2: the bat better, but he also doesn't throw guys out. 144 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 2: Austin Wells isn't the best at throwing guys out either, 145 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 2: but he's better than Jose Travino. But yeah, I agree 146 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 2: with you. I want to see that swing in the 147 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 2: lineup much more often. 148 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: Hey Derek, it twheels up here in the Hutson's Alley. 149 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 3: Hey man, I had to explain. 150 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 4: To my doorter what a mush dash vibe is, she 151 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 4: kept asking me, So I told. 152 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 1: Her it means when you get in the car we 153 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 1: go to the ice cream shop and you order choup 154 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 1: with shakes, you leaves a mustang ring. 155 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 3: Over your nose and your lips, like it's a mustang mustache. 156 00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 5: And she laughed. 157 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 3: The close one. 158 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 2: Brother, Dude, I nearly died laughing listening to that voicemail. 159 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 2: I'm sorry I created that awkward situation for you. Look, 160 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 2: I try and keep the show mostly family friendly, and 161 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 2: we're slanting more in that direction now that we're pinstriped 162 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 2: Territory and we have corporate sponsorship and all that good stuff. 163 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 2: But I, uh, yeah, sorry, I created that. Sorry, I 164 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 2: created that situation for you. 165 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 1: Hey, Derek, what's going on?

Hey, maybe if you had some 175 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 1: type of protection over your head, you wouldn't have to 176 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 1: worry about that, But you left it back at first 177 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: base every time. I mean, I don't want to put 178 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 1: nothing on nobody, but you're gonna get hurt. Somebody in 179 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 1: the Yankees clubhouse have to see this and notice this 180 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,960 Speaker 1: and put a stop to it. I've convinced they're wearing 181 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:26,439 Speaker 1: helmet two sides is too big. They don't want to 182 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 1: miss their hair up. 183 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 2: Another good voicemail. I appreciate it. Look, I agree with 184 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 2: you one hundred percent. Not only you know, because it's 185 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 2: stupid and the you know, I get tired of watching 186 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 2: the helmet bouncing all over the field. But you're right, 187 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 2: it's dangerous. I mean, the guy's gonna get conked upside 188 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 2: the head. And you don't want to have a concussion 189 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 2: and miss the playoffs because you chose to wear a 190 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 2: helmet that's you know, two sizes is too big. I 191 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:55,719 Speaker 2: don't know if they make them. Maybe he's got a 192 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 2: small head. Maybe they don't make them any smaller than that. 193 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 2: But yeah, I agree with you one hundred per This 194 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 2: guy's got to quit getting donked in the head. And 195 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 2: last night should have been a wake up call to 196 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 2: the folks and the Yankees dugout. You know, if Volpie 197 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 2: had to miss some time because he got tagged on 198 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 2: the head and got a concussion, you know that's not 199 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 2: a good look for this team, when when we've known 200 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,560 Speaker 2: and been saying for weeks that he needs a helmet 201 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 2: that fits. So yeah, look, I agree with you on. 202 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:34,959 Speaker 5: Well, the most profitable organization in sports, how come. 203 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: We cannot afford to have helmets fit our players. 204 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:40,559 Speaker 2: They have the vopie. 205 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 1: Thought off the helmet on every double. 206 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 3: Or stolen base. 207 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 1: It was cute, but seriously, put the helmet on, tighten 208 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 1: it up, change something, because it's not cute anymore. 209 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 2: We got a few more calls about the helmet, but 210 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 2: I'm not going to play them all.

I appreciate you guys 229 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 2: being patient with the ADS. I know a lot of 230 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:10,319 Speaker 2: you have been with me for many, many years and 231 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 2: we didn't always have ADS. But you know this is 232 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 2: a way for me to afford to bring in some 233 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 2: other people, you know, to have better guests. To pay 234 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 2: for a social media person to you know, expand to 235 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:28,320 Speaker 2: Instagram and TikTok and all that. So you know, I 236 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 2: appreciate it, and you can always fast forward through them. 237 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 2: But I would also appreciate it if you supported our 238 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 2: ad sponsors, if you see something that seems relevant to you. 239 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 2: All right, onto the voicemails I did. 240 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 3: There is Milton from Texas just looking at the percentages over. 241 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 4: Here on the probability that the Yankees will be in 242 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 4: the playoffs, of course, but the question is where they 243 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 4: be a number of the division winners if they play 244 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 4: at the same percentage and the Oriols play at the 245 00:12:57,480 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 4: same percentage of the ARK today. 246 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 3: Thirty games to play, the Yankees looked like they can 247 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 3: win by two games with about ninety five wins, and 248 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 3: Oil have ninety three wins and of course two less 249 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 3: losses for the Yankees, so even playing at this percentage 250 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:21,679 Speaker 3: right now, they can win the division. 251 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 2: Honestly, I'm kind of surprised that the Orioles haven't had 252 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 2: a better season. They were so good last year, they 253 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 2: won one hundred games, they won the American League East, 254 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 2: and I did not expect, realistically the Yankees to overcome 255 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,439 Speaker 2: them in the division. Now they haven't yet. They're two 256 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 2: games up, but like you said, they've got a shot 257 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:43,200 Speaker 2: if they can play at a consistent level over the 258 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 2: next several weeks. But one thing that does concern me 259 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:51,440 Speaker 2: is this layoff that teams that division winners have had 260 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 2: over the last several years, where you get five days off, 261 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:57,839 Speaker 2: you get a first round by now. I think if 262 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 2: you ask the players, they would all say they could 263 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 2: use the rest, they could use the recovery. But it 264 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:07,679 Speaker 2: does seem to slow some momentum. So we'll see how 265 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 2: it shakes out. But it is not going to be 266 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,320 Speaker 2: easy to take on the title. It never is. But 267 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 2: the Yankees do have a chance. 268 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 5: What's going on, Bobby the Bear down here in Atlanta? 269 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 5: I gotta agree with you, Bro, Nasty nest He had 270 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 5: to be the Belt winner. He had to, and you 271 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 5: eluded something on your show tonight. It's all about when 272 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 5: it comes to the playoffs, it's all about timely hitting 273 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 5: and excellent pitching. We gotta have excellent pitching and that's 274 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 5: exactly what Nasty Nestor provided. Did you see his excitement 275 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 5: when he got out of that basis loaded jam? 276 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 1: What any was that? 277 00:14:55,680 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 5: The fifth the sixth man that's exciting stuff, dude. 278 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I was surprised there was pushback on the belt 279 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 2: last night. I thought nest did a great job. It 280 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 2: was the sixth inning, he had the bases loaded, he 281 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 2: had three strikeouts, got out of the inning, and he's 282 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 2: had three really good starts in a row. I'm not 283 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 2: sure if he's gonna be in the playoff rotation right now. 284 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,880 Speaker 2: I would probably have it lined up Garrett Cole Clark Schmidt, 285 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 2: who's on his way back in my number two spot, 286 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 2: and then probably Carlos Rodon and then the number four 287 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 2: spot is either Luis Heel or Marcus Stroman or Nester Cortez. 288 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 2: Probably gonna go with Stroman because he hasn't pitched as 289 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 2: much out of the bullpen, But Nestor Cortez could end 290 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 2: up being a big factor, you know, giving us some 291 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 2: length out of the bullpen, maybe pitching as a situational 292 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 2: lefty out of the bullpen. Look, I think the Yankees 293 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 2: pitching headed into the playoffs is the strongest it's been 294 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 2: in years. The question is will we get anyone other 295 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 2: than Judge and Soto to hit? I guess we'll find out, 296 00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 2: all right. Thanks for all your calls. Reminder to tune 297 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 2: into Foul Tear Toy. Today, We've got Kyle, he Gotshioka, 298 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 2: former Yankees catcher on and I'll be back after the game. 299 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 2: We'll see you. Then put the today's No. Stra Derek prediction. 300 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 2: Aaron Judge getting number fifty two. He is going to 301 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 2: tie his twenty seventeen home run total off of Patrick Corbin, who, 302 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 2: as we've established, not a good pitcher anymore. I think Judge, 303 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 2: if they pitched to him, is going in the left 304 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 2: field bleachers. Aaron Judge home run number fifty two. If 305 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 2: you enjoyed this video, please drop a like and give 306 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 2: us a subscribe.
