I say all the. 56 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 5: Time how hard it is to play baseball, and I 57 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,519 Speaker 5: have no regrets at all that I don't have to 58 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 5: play anymore because guys throw away too hard and what 59 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 5: you guys do is way too difficult for me. 60 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 4: To do anymore. 61 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 5: But I'll say this, sometimes you just need somebody to 62 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 5: tell you that you're gonna have a good day. 63 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 4: Just you're gonna have a good day. 64 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 6: Mac. 65 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 5: You know what, I don't even care what your numbers 66 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 5: are because I said I thought you're gonna go deep. 67 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:44,920 Speaker 5: You were my pick to click to go deep, because 68 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 5: I thought he'd flipped you a curveball and you were 69 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 5: gonna hit it out. 70 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 4: But you got three hits, so my work is done. 71 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, you never know, especially especially at that ballpark. You 72 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 2: never know. 73 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: You get one up in the air, might go But 74 00:02:58,160 --> 00:02:59,519 Speaker 1: I appreciated the support that day. 75 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 3: Hey, on that note, real quick, we're gonna have Brett 76 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 3: Boone on the show later. 77 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 7: Right, Brett was not coaching. 78 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 3: He was actually podcasting. 79 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 4: He was doing he was hanging out a lot. 80 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 3: He's gonna be on the show later. I heard him 81 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 3: on another interview talking about how for example, you know, 82 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 3: he's obviously getting caught up. He said he loves the 83 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 3: info that's provided, but it almost sounded like he thought 84 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 3: some guys were overthinking things. So, for example, some guys 85 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 3: are talking, he said, in the clubhouse about a picture's 86 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 3: spin rate, and he's like, I mean, the dude's got 87 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 3: a really good slider, Like we have to like he's 88 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 3: they're talking numbers. So what do you observe when guys 89 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 3: are breaking down how. 90 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 7: A picture looks? Like how much is too much? And 91 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 7: sometimes should someone just. 92 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 3: Be like, yo, watch out sliders nasty versus he's got 93 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 3: x y z RPMs on this. 94 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, we don't ever really focus too much 95 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: on the spin rate. You know, obviously it's something that 96 00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: you notice if it jumps off the chart, it kind 97 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,119 Speaker 1: of you think about it. But we more focus on, 98 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: you know, what the numbers are trying to tell you. 99 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 1: What's the vert telling you, what's the horizontal telling you? 100 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: For us, that means more. So, you know, if this 101 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: guy's throwing a fastball and he's got twenty vert, well 102 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 1: you got to be a little bit more direct to it. 103 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,160 Speaker 1: You got to make sure you're thinking above the ball. 104 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:20,720 Speaker 2: The ball is going to seem like it's rising. 105 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: You know, we kind of pay attention to that information 106 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: just in terms of how we're going to form our approach. 107 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,360 Speaker 1: But sometimes it does seem like guys look at those 108 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: numbers and it scares them away a little bit. That's 109 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,040 Speaker 1: why we don't necessarily focus on the spin rate. Oh, 110 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,919 Speaker 1: this guy's you know, throwing a slider with three thousand rpm. 111 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,480 Speaker 1: You know, it doesn't matter what how how much is 112 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,559 Speaker 1: it moving? What's it going to feel like in the box? 113 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,120 Speaker 1: And that's more what we try to talk to each 114 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: other about. You know, how does it feel Does the 115 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 1: cutter feel like a slider? Does the slider feel like 116 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 1: a curveball? You know what's the what window is? Well, 117 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:55,600 Speaker 1: you know what lane is it coming out of? How 118 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: is it tunneling? And you know, we try to formulate 119 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,600 Speaker 1: our approaches based on that. And you know, last night 120 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 1: you go to it for an example, we uh, we 121 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 1: had a little bit of trouble with the starter last night. 122 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 2: I know we had a couple of home runs, but 123 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 2: we had a little bit of trouble because. 124 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: You look at the reports and he's a fastball, cutter guy, 125 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: and so you know, for the lefties, it's pretty simple approach. 126 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 1: You want to push it out over and you know 127 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:17,479 Speaker 1: you want to get him up. You don't want it 128 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 1: to bore in on you. Well, last night he went 129 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: majority change up against us, and that's a you know, 130 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,280 Speaker 1: it's a tough pitch to handle when you're the whole 131 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 1: lane you're looking for is up and out over. 132 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 5: So that's that was my question. Is that what you 133 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 5: do as a Is this a team wide approach? Is 134 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 5: this an individual approach to the hitting coaches come to 135 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,160 Speaker 5: you guys and say this is your attack against this 136 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 5: pitcher or is it a team wide thing where they say, 137 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 5: because not every hitter, is it different? 138 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 4: Do you Freddy Show? 139 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 5: Hey, you know, obviously Mookie hits right handed, but you 140 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 5: guys are all different and have different approaches and different 141 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 5: things you want to look for. So is this a 142 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 5: team wide approach or is this individualized for each one 143 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 5: of you guys? 144 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 2: It's a it's a little bit of both. 145 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: You know, one thing we've always done really well in 146 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: our hitters meeting is, you know the hitting coaches, they 147 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 1: they give the report on the guy. You know, they 148 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 1: they give little tidbits here and there, you know, what 149 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 1: they think works, and then they pretty much force every 150 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: guy to say what their approach is going to be 151 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:19,359 Speaker 1: that day. And you know, that way, you don't just 152 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 1: go into the meeting, you know, blank mind. You have 153 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:23,479 Speaker 1: to have done your homework. You have to know what 154 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: you're looking for. And if you say something, other guys 155 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: might chime in and be like, hey, I don't I 156 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: don't think. 157 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 2: That's a good idea. 158 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: You know, it just it's it's uh that way, everyone's 159 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 1: kind of, you know, on the same page with it. 160 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 1: So it's a little bit of a team wide and 161 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: it's a little bit of depending on who you are. 162 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 1: Like you said, Freddie, like he's got the same approach 163 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,040 Speaker 1: every single day, but he might look in different areas, 164 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:47,479 Speaker 1: but he's still trying to do the same thing every 165 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: single day.

Regular people would hear it 329 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:44,320 Speaker 1: and be like, I have no idea what they're talking about. 330 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 6: So true, so true.

First of all, forty and fifty six hits. 332 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:57,200 Speaker 6: Does that number even like, does that even compute in 333 00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,840 Speaker 6: the sense of like an active big leaguer thinking about 334 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 6: somebody getting four and fifty six hits. 335 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 1: No, that number just sounds astronomical to me, because I 336 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:12,320 Speaker 1: you know, we can bring Freddy back up. You know, 337 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 1: Freddy's Freddie's chasing three thousand, and he's still a couple 338 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 1: hundred away from it. And I feel like Freddie gets 339 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 1: a thousand hits every single year. And you know, when 340 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 1: you talk about he's trying to get three thousand, you 341 00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 1: talk about a guy that had, you know, twelve hundred 342 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 1: more than that. It's just it's just an insane number 343 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 1: to really think about, all right. 344 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 6: So the last one for Pete he cheated, he gambled 345 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 6: on baseball. Do you feel like that's something that is 346 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 6: irreprehensible unforgivable in the game because of what it does 347 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 6: to the integrity of the game. 348 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 1: That's a tricky question that I mean, the simple answer 349 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: is yes, But you know, you dive in you have 350 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: to dive into it a little bit more. You know, 351 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: he was banned for life, obviously, and you because of 352 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,000 Speaker 1: the way the rules are stated, that's that was the fitting, 353 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 1: you know, punishment for it. You know, should he have 354 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 1: been banned from the Hall of Fame? 355 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 2: That I don't know. 356 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 1: I mean, like you said, you talked about a guy 357 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 1: who has a number of hits that most people can't 358 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 1: even you know, fathom. 359 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 2: It's I've been thinking. 360 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 1: A lot of a lot the last couple of days, 361 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 1: ever since the news came out that you know, he 362 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 1: got lifted from the permanently ineligible list. It's a it's 363 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 1: a really tricky question. I don't know that I have 364 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 1: a good answer for it. You know, but the rules 365 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 1: of the rules, you break the rules. It's it's you know, 366 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 1: it's pretty simple. 367 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 4: Okay, all right, Well give me a yes or not? 368 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 4: What you vote for him? I'm gonna know I'm thumbs down, 369 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 4: So you go, you yes or no? 370 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 2: What I vote for him? Yeah, I probably I'd probably 371 00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 2: vote for him. 372 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 4: Sucker, sucker, yes or no. I'm just kidding. I'm just 373 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 4: everyone has their opinion. 374 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 5: No, this is no dude, seriously, like, I respect everyone's opinion. 375 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 5: Everyone has opinions on this, and it's why it's one 376 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 5: of the most polarizing uh things in all of baseball 377 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 5: right now, is because of just some people say yes 378 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 5: and people say no. And listen, I understand exactly why 379 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 5: Max and people say yes, and I have my opinions 380 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 5: on why they say no. So no, it was all 381 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 5: good fun, but I want to go to something a 382 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 5: little more positive for you and for me.
