1
00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:02,360
Speaker 1: How's it going? Everybody?

2
00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:02,680
Speaker 2: Day?

3
00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:05,120
Speaker 1: One as a cue ball is in the books. A

4
00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:07,640
Speaker 1: lot of you have asked how my wife reacted. I

5
00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:09,480
Speaker 1: wish I could tell you, but she packed her bags

6
00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:10,440
Speaker 1: and left.

7
00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:20,239
Speaker 3: Derek, this is Noel and Mike. Hey.

8
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:25,079
Speaker 2: Derek comment on the game.

9
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:26,040
Speaker 4: Which is amazing.

10
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:29,240
Speaker 5: Rice is amazing, But honestly, the cherry on the cake

11
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:32,960
Speaker 5: of the day is watching you shave your head on TV.

12
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,680
Speaker 5: That you are a man of your work.

13
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:39,280
Speaker 6: Who knew that Ben right to bring us so much joy?

14
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,680
Speaker 1: Well, I'm glad you guys enjoyed it. Option B was

15
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: a little bit more harsh. I was going to do

16
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 1: a self appendectomy, but I guess the hair will grow back.

17
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:51,760
Speaker 1: It actually looks okay. I'm feeling okay with it. I

18
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 1: gotta get a little bit of a tan on the

19
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 1: dome piece, but I think it'll work out fine. I

20
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 1: might actually stick with it. I've had a lot of

21
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 1: people say that it looks better than my you know,

22
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 1: falling out hair, thinning hairdo, so I might stick with it.

23
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 1: Appreciate the call.

24
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 7: Guys, hey derk Chain. Yeah, I was thinking Ben, Rice

25
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 7: definitely needs a different number, and I was hoping that

26
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:18,760
Speaker 7: there would be at least three become available to him

27
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 7: in the near future to get the Yankees out of

28
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 7: this lethargic loser mentality that they're in right now. Fifty

29
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 7: five would look good on Ben Rice's back, Number twenty

30
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:42,959
Speaker 7: seven would look really good on Ben Rice's back. And finally,

31
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 7: the number that would look the best on his back

32
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 7: is number seventeen.

33
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 1: Number seventeen, of course, belongs to Aaron Boone, Yankees manager, who,

34
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 1: if the Yankees have another epic collapse, could be giving

35
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 1: up his number. But if I'm Ben Rice, I might

36
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: be a little bit superstitious after that three homer game,

37
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 1: I might stick with number ninety three. But I do

38
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: think that he would look better with a lower number,

39
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 1: you know, twenty nine is what I've been suggesting. I

40
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 1: think twenty seven works fine, thirty one, thirty three, something

41
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 1: like that. You know, that seems like more of a

42
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 1: first base number. Fifty five is good. That's Matt Suey.

43
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 1: But yeah, if I'm Ben Rice, I might stick with

44
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:23,920
Speaker 1: number ninety three for the rest of the season anyway.

45
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:28,360
Speaker 4: Derek Sports Draft by josh allcon Collins from the Holy Land.

46
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 4: Once again, Ben Rice, what a show, What a pleasure

47
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:35,639
Speaker 4: it was, to watch here live in Jerusalem. Three bombs,

48
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,400
Speaker 4: three home runs, and one looked better than the next.

49
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 4: It was wonderful. The most important thing here is is

50
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 4: that Aaron Zoom should never take him out of the

51
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 4: lineup right now. No more JD. Davis, no more any

52
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 4: thoughts about futuning the guy Ben Rice is your first

53
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 4: baseman and you're going to live and die with that

54
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 4: for the rest of the season. Case closed.

55
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 1: I've seen enough to believe he's going to be an

56
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 1: excellent major league hitter. But there's been a lot of

57
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: guys who have come up and after a trip or

58
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 1: two through the league, they have to make some adjustments,

59
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 1: and they might not be able to make those adjustments.

60
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,959
Speaker 1: Right now, we're seeing Anthony Volpi, who got off to

61
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 1: a red hot start this season. For the first several weeks,

62
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 1: he's been ice cold for about fifty games. So this

63
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,679
Speaker 1: is a game of adjustments. We'll see what kind of

64
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 1: adjustments he has to make. But right now, he's been

65
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 1: very effective laying off those pitches that are just outside

66
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: of the strike zone and hammering the pitches that he

67
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 1: gets to hit. Let's hope he keeps it up. On

68
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:33,639
Speaker 1: Sunday Night, baseball.

69
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 5: Hey, Derek the Paul Diagle, I got a galon two pays.

70
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 8: Oh, I've touched good looks, but I do respect your.

71
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 5: Patriotism, fan hood to the Yankees and keeping your word.

72
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:48,839
Speaker 7: Yeah.

73
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 1: Now, if my podcasting career doesn't work out, at least

74
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 1: I can get into selling meth heis in baseball.

75
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 3: Hey, Derek, is Spike.

76
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 1: From New Jersey.

77
00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 3: Some drafts on the bald head.

78
00:03:58,280 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 8: You look good man.

79
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 5: I just wanted to say today was an awesome game.

80
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 5: Ben Rice hitting the three home runs. Nothing hypes me

81
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 5: up more than seeing the young guys hit the short

82
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 5: porch or, in Ben's case, the second dext. I hope

83
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 5: sometime this season we get to see a lineup with

84
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 5: Ben Rice, Jason Dominguez, and Austin Wells all hitting together.

85
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 3: I guess my question for.

86
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 5: You would be, where do you think Ben Rice would

87
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,359
Speaker 5: profile over the course of a regular season batting average wise,

88
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 5: he does have some good at bats and power wise,

89
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 5: how many home runs do you think you hit?

90
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,279
Speaker 1: It's really too early to say. I want to see

91
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,279
Speaker 1: how he does after a trip through the league. You know,

92
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 1: give me another month and I'll be able to give

93
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 1: you a little bit more of a scouting report on him.

94
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: But the fact that he is such patient at bats

95
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 1: is a really good sign. The power is easy, it

96
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 1: will play well at Yankee Stadium. So I mean, I mean,

97
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 1: he's got four home runs already in the first few weeks.

98
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:55,840
Speaker 1: I don't know how he can't be a twenty home

99
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,479
Speaker 1: run guy at least. And as far as the batting

100
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:03,279
Speaker 1: average go, that's a little bit more difficult because slumps happen. Also,

101
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 1: as we've seen with Austin Wells, you're expected batting average

102
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 1: and your actual batting average can be quite different. But

103
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,279
Speaker 1: judging from the way that he takes pitches, I would

104
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 1: expect an on base percentage of three point thirty three

105
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 1: point forty at minimum at minimum, with potential to be

106
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 1: up around three sixty three seventy, you know, with some pop.

107
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 1: So if he learns to play the position, that's a

108
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 1: pretty valuable player.

109
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 2: Stin Stecho, former New Jersey person now in Florida. Dude,

110
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:35,720
Speaker 2: you got the razor upside down. The flat side goes

111
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 2: against your head.

112
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I appreciate that. I've literally never held that razor before,

113
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 1: and I've definitely never shaved my own head before. But

114
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 1: now I know I've actually got a flexible razor that

115
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,480
Speaker 1: can you know, go It's meant for heads, right, and

116
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 1: I bought it, you know, probably six months ago because

117
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 1: I was thinking about shaving my head and it was

118
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 1: on sale on Amazon's I picked it up. But now

119
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:01,920
Speaker 1: I can just use that. I think I'll probably stick

120
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 1: with the bald head look for the rest of the

121
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,839
Speaker 1: summer and then let it go out during the winter. Possibly,

122
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:10,479
Speaker 1: but we'll see. But appreciate the advice, and next time

123
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,279
Speaker 1: that I shave my full head of hair on camera,

124
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 1: I will hold the razor appropriately anyway.

125
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:20,039
Speaker 6: Just looking at Ben Rice here, fifty one at bats right,

126
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:26,119
Speaker 6: four homers. He's batt in two ninety four only nine

127
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 6: strikeouts and fifty one at bats. I mean this guy.

128
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 6: You know, we're just getting used to the lead off spot,

129
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 6: but man, he could back up Judge in the fourth hole.

130
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,839
Speaker 1: I say, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. I

131
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:44,599
Speaker 1: actually think that the number four spot is tailor made

132
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 1: for Jason Dominguez because he's a switch hitter, so you

133
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,359
Speaker 1: won't have to change it day in and day out. Rice,

134
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 1: I think could do fine at the leadoff spot. He's

135
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 1: not super fast, but you don't need a speed demon

136
00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 1: ahead of Soto and Judge. And if he's gonna get

137
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 1: on base, that's more RBIs for Judge, who is having

138
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: a monster season, been in a little bit of a

139
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 1: funk lately. But watch out on Sunday Night Baseball.

140
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 9: This whole downstretch of losing fifteen out of the last

141
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 9: twenty or something like that. Sorry, with Holmes blowing a

142
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 9: loss or blowing the game in Kansas City to the Royals,

143
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 9: and yesterday it was him blowing the game against the

144
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 9: Red Sox. Will that be the end to the stretch.

145
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 9: It's him blowing a game just how the stretch started, I.

146
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 1: Mean, I hope, so it would be interesting if Clay

147
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: Holmes blown saves where the bookends of a really bad stretch.

148
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 1: But I do feel like the momentum changed a little

149
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:43,360
Speaker 1: bit yesterday because the bench was loosened up by this

150
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 1: kid and his amazing performance. It'll be huge, huge if

151
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 1: Louis Heal can get back to being Louis Heal tonight.

152
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 1: But if he gets pummeled, I fear that the Yankees

153
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 1: will further sync into a tailspin. But we really need

154
00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 1: lou Heal to step up tonight and showcase that stuff

155
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,360
Speaker 1: that got him off to a nine and one start.

156
00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 1: I think he's tired, I really do. I'm not expecting

157
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 1: a lot, but if he can give us five innings

158
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:14,080
Speaker 1: one run and the bats show up and do their job,

159
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: then maybe we can start to build some momentum.

160
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 3: Hi, Derek Simon Rosenhal calling from Bella Vista and New Hymn, Connecticut.

161
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 3: Woll I like you shaved your head. You look great now.

162
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 3: I don't get to shave the bead all because you

163
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 3: know you're a Yankee fan. No beers allowed. Were gonna

164
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 3: beat the heck out of the Red Sox. What a

165
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 3: great game today by Ben Rice. Three home runs. It's

166
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 3: like we took Anthony Rizzo and we recycle them to

167
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 3: somebody better. I think Ben Rice should play every day, Derek,

168
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:39,560
Speaker 3: every single day.

169
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 1: I agree with you, Simon. I think we've seen enough

170
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 1: to see that he is an actual big leaguer, that

171
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,960
Speaker 1: he has big league at bats. He is not as

172
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 1: experienced defensively as Anthony Rizzo, but Rizzo had his defensive

173
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 1: hiccups all season long, and I fear that Anthony Rizzo

174
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 1: is circling the drain, so to speak, as a professional

175
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 1: baseball player. The reaction time isn't the same, the athleticism

176
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,440
Speaker 1: isn't the same. He's had a good career, and I

177
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 1: hope that he becomes a coach or stays around the

178
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: Yankees organization because he's a good guy. But if I'm

179
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 1: making out the lineup card, I'm putting Ben Rice in

180
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:22,199
Speaker 1: there every day, Righty, Lefty Rain or Shine Hi Derek.

181
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 5: My name is Steve Coleman, first time caller, the.

182
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 6: Yankee fan since nineteen fifty seven. I've seen it all,

183
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 6: But what.

184
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:34,839
Speaker 7: I saw today was a young player, Ben Rice, who probably.

185
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 6: Deserves to hit somewhere in the middle of that.

186
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 9: Lineup with that kind of power and beat the.

187
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 7: Ball skills that looked pretty good.

188
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 6: It was even obvious to me before today.

189
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,239
Speaker 7: He hits the ball with authority.

190
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,559
Speaker 6: The Yankees need to find the leadoff hitter and they

191
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 6: need to drop him.

192
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 7: Down to the middle of that order.

193
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 6: His power is terrific, and the Yankees have found I think,

194
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 6: as Jim here.

195
00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 1: I hear what you're saying. I am not going to

196
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 1: I disagree that he could hit in the middle of

197
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 1: the order. I think right now, for the time being,

198
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 1: the Yankees are searching for somebody who can get on

199
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 1: bass in front of Soto and in front of Judge.

200
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 1: I really wish they would go out and get a

201
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 1: prototypical leadoff man, but I'm not sure who that guy

202
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,840
Speaker 1: could be, so right now, I think they're gonna stick

203
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 1: with him in the leadoff spot. But long term, hopefully

204
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,800
Speaker 1: Volpi reclaims that job once he starts hitting again. He's

205
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 1: been in a slump for a while, but when he

206
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 1: was getting on base every day at the top of

207
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,080
Speaker 1: the order, the Yankees were really really cooking, and that

208
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 1: was a gauntlet to get through. But you know, with

209
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: Domingez coming back, with Stanton coming back, the Yankees are

210
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 1: gonna have some options for the middle of the order.

211
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 1: When John Birdie comes back, they're gonna have some more

212
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 1: options for the leadoff man. Berdie is a guy who

213
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 1: hit two ninety four last year, tons and tons of speed,

214
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,400
Speaker 1: so it'll be interesting to see how it shakes out.

215
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 1: I wish I could fast forward to the playoffs and

216
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 1: see what the Yankees lineup looks like as they begin

217
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:56,599
Speaker 1: the postseason.

218
00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:00,520
Speaker 10: YO n Y Y recasts. I hope, well, I know

219
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 10: you're seeing what I'm seeing. But is Boone and Cashman

220
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 10: seeing what we're seeing. Play the youth, play the youth.

221
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:15,839
Speaker 10: If we got guys in our system like Augustine Ramirez

222
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 10: and Ben Rice, why are these guys not getting opportunities?

223
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,840
Speaker 1: Well, perhaps ben Rice capitalizing on this opportunity will give

224
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 1: the general manager and the organization a little bit more

225
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,439
Speaker 1: confidence to plug some of these younger guys in. Augustine

226
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 1: Ramirez hit another home run yesterday. He's got four home

227
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,720
Speaker 1: runs at Triple A. He would not be a bad

228
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:39,200
Speaker 1: DH option. In my opinion, I would rather see him

229
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 1: than JD. Davis every day of the week. You can

230
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 1: bet on.

231
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 8: That the Rangers have this guy named Josh Smith who

232
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:53,080
Speaker 8: is a lefty and he plays third space, shortstops and

233
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 8: can play some outfield. He's got seven home runs back

234
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 8: in two ninety three and a three point two war.

235
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 8: Maybe the Yankees can talk to the Rangers. They think

236
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,720
Speaker 8: the Rangers are going to be looking to sell at

237
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:07,680
Speaker 8: the trade deadline.

238
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 1: You know, Josh Smith was a Yankee at one point,

239
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:12,840
Speaker 1: just a few years ago. I've always liked his swing.

240
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 1: He kind of struggled when he first got to the

241
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 1: major leagues, but he's really broken out this year. He's

242
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,440
Speaker 1: still extremely affordable and valuable, so I'm not sure that

243
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 1: the Rangers would want to give him up, but if

244
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 1: they did, I'm sure the Yankees would be interested. Appreciate

245
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:29,079
Speaker 1: the call. All right, thanks for your calls, everybody. I'm

246
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,319
Speaker 1: headed to the pool to get a little bit of
