1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,480 Speaker 1: Brian Snicker's not in the hot seat. They're not going 2 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:05,320 Speaker 1: to fire him. The question with Brian Snicker is going 3 00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:07,800 Speaker 1: to be will he return next season? 4 00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:18,640 Speaker 2: That's at the inside scoop with FT senior insider Ken Rosenthal. 5 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 2: Freshest article from Ken is up on the athletic right 6 00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:24,080 Speaker 2: now about Cedric Mullins, who's been with the team for 7 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:26,279 Speaker 2: a while now and he went through the really tough 8 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 2: tanking times too, So Ken can give us more insight 9 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:32,199 Speaker 2: on what you wrote about. And the follow up, of 10 00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:36,520 Speaker 2: course is where are the extensions? Where are the offers 11 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:39,240 Speaker 2: for any of these Orioles players with the new ownership group. 12 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:43,639 Speaker 1: Well, with Cedric Muwins, he's been a guy that's been 13 00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 1: through the thick and thin with them. You were just 14 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,160 Speaker 1: talking about Justin Steele being there for the difficult years 15 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:49,360 Speaker 1: or the mediocre years. 16 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:50,839 Speaker 3: Mullens was there. 17 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 1: For the really bad years with the Orioles, and of 18 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 1: course he is their longest tenured player now. He has 19 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 1: been a mainstay in their organization in the Baltimore community. 20 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 1: He's quite popular with fans. But the Orioles are a 21 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:07,800 Speaker 1: team that has pushed out players like Anthony Santander to 22 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,520 Speaker 1: free agency. Austin Hayes to trade, and Mullens likely will 23 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: be the next to go because they have younger players coming. 24 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:18,679 Speaker 1: Colton Cowser can take over centerfield. Enrique Bradfield Junior is 25 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 1: a top prospect. He's coming a centerfield type as well, 26 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:26,400 Speaker 1: so the chances of them resigning Mullens are probably slim. 27 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:28,400 Speaker 1: But the point of the article is merely just to 28 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,479 Speaker 1: point out this guy's had a really nice career for them. 29 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:35,119 Speaker 1: Twenty twenty one was his best season by far. Hasn't 30 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 1: been quite that good since then, but he's off to 31 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: a great start. He got a huge ovation in their 32 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 1: home opener, and it just seems to me that he's 33 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 1: one of these guys that gets kind of overlooked. 34 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 4: So this guy, I know what he struggled the year before, 35 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 4: he had a little problem. I mean, I feel like 36 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 4: he is the staple of Orioles right now. And then 37 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 4: you know, for him, I love the decision of coming 38 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 4: out and saying, hey, listen, I want I want to 39 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 4: stay here, you know, And I think that's the comfort 40 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 4: level you got to have. But it's ultimately up to 41 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 4: the Orioles. They have these prospects coming up too, but 42 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 4: don't you want a guy, a veteran guy there to 43 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:10,639 Speaker 4: kind of lead the ship as they move forward. 44 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,359 Speaker 1: Well, that's the question, Todd, and it's a fair question 45 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: with them because they have an incredibly talented group of 46 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:22,360 Speaker 1: young position players. We all know that maybe Adlie Rushman 47 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 1: becomes that leader, maybe Gunner Henderson becomes that leader. But 48 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: you also need the veteran types, the Todd Frazier's and 49 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 1: the Eric Kratzes of the world when they were playing 50 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: to stabilize a clubhouse to be a good influence on 51 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 1: younger players. And you can't just all have zero to 52 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 1: three guys as far as service time is concerned. You 53 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:45,920 Speaker 1: need some veterans as well. The question is whether you 54 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,919 Speaker 1: want to commit to a center fielder who is thirty 55 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: years old and at that position that's relatively old. That's 56 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 1: an actual age where it becomes kind of a thing 57 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:01,399 Speaker 1: that guys don't play that position anymore. So you could 58 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:04,359 Speaker 1: move him to a current corner. He does hit for power, 59 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 1: but is he what exactly you want in a corner 60 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 1: of outfield position. I'm not sure. So it is a 61 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: very fair question to ask of these guys, the Orioles, Hey, 62 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 1: what are you doing here? Who's going to be the leader, 63 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 1: who's going to be the guy you latch onto. Because 64 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: getting back to Scott's original point, they've yet to sign 65 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: any of their young players to extensions. Gunnar Henderson is 66 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 1: a scott Ars client. I seriously doubt he'll sign an 67 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 1: extension with the Oriols before becoming a free agent. Rushman 68 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 1: is not a Bors client and perhaps would be more 69 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 1: open to it, but I don't know where they're at 70 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: with that, Michaelias. This week, the general manager spoke about 71 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: how they're trying to do some things along the lines 72 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: of extensions, and they've been fairly active with it, but 73 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 1: to this point, nothing's been done. 74 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 3: Do you feel like one last thing on the Oriols 75 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 3: do you feel like it's a lack of forward thinking 76 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 3: because you said you don't want to have an outfielder 77 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 3: like Cedric at thirty four years old, that's what the age. 78 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 3: They could have extended him three years ago to age 79 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 3: thirty two and just kept him seeing that they were 80 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 3: gonna have Adelie coming up, or three years ago Adlie 81 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 3: came up, Gunner was coming up, All these guys were 82 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 3: coming up. Is it lack of forward thinking or is 83 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:21,919 Speaker 3: it a fear of what is to come, and that's 84 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 3: not what's going to keep them their job in Baltimore. 85 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 1: Eric, my opinion on this would be the biggest driver 86 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: in what we're talking about is the mere group of 87 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: young players that they have, the incredible talent that they've 88 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: been able to draft and develop. And three years ago 89 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,279 Speaker 1: they could see guys like Cow's are coming. I believe 90 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 1: he was drafted by then. They knew what they had, 91 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: they knew they'd be drafting in the future as well 92 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: other players. They got Bradfield at believe in two years 93 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: ago in the draft. So it just seems that's the 94 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: way they were going. And that keep in mind they 95 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,479 Speaker 1: had a very different ownership, an ownership that was not 96 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 1: willing to spend much money. Now David Rubinstein has been 97 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 1: willing to spend within the confines of their market size. 98 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 1: Their increase in payroll was the second largest in the 99 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:17,720 Speaker 1: majors in the offseason, so you can't say they're being cheap. 100 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 1: But they have a model, and it's kind of a 101 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:26,600 Speaker 1: small market model, which is understandable given their revenue position 102 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:28,800 Speaker 1: and all of that. And I don't know that they 103 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,839 Speaker 1: want to just take gambles. If you want to call 104 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,039 Speaker 1: it that on players who are older when they have 105 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 1: younger players. 106 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 3: Coming ken, Can you remember a series that you are 107 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 3: going into and looking at the pitching matchups and being like, whoa, 108 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 3: this is the series of pitching matchups for the season 109 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 3: lined up for you. You're going into your you're watching the 110 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 3: Arrangers and Dodgers here this weekend. Can you remember in 111 00:05:55,000 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 3: a recent past or recent like where you've seen names 112 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 3: like this on pitching matchups? First series? 113 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 1: My memory on certain things is better than others. It's 114 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: not great on this one. Now. I do know we 115 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 1: have a great matchup tonight Yamamoto de Gram and when 116 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: we have a great matchup on Fox tomorrow Sasaki and Valdi, 117 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 1: and the third matchup as well, Tyler Mally's been arguably 118 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: the Rangers' best starting pitcher and Tyler Glass now of 119 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 1: course is Tyler Glass now? So yeah, it's really good, 120 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 1: There's no doubt about that. I am sure Eric, there 121 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 1: have been comparable series in the recent past, but I 122 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 1: can't remember exactly. I have a memory for weird things, 123 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: not always the right things, and I'm not coming up 124 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 1: with anything right here. 125 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,160 Speaker 2: AJ it is time for people to get some new 126 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 2: clubs and to do that, they need to go to 127 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 2: their local PXG for a fitting, right. 128 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,040 Speaker 3: No doubt. I was there today, I've been there before. 129 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 5: Last time I was there, they gave me this killer 130 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 5: gap ed you look at that sweet spot, Scott, it 131 00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 5: is worn out. That is right in the sweet spot 132 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,279 Speaker 5: right there. I went and got a new clubs today, 133 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 5: new irons. But more importantly, I got this bad boy. 134 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 5: I got me a new putter. This is my old putter. 135 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,599 Speaker 5: It's on order. Yes, that's my putter cover PXG Mustang putter. 136 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 5: Now I'm going to the Allen putter. They talked me 137 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 5: into it because I was draining some putts today. Bob, 138 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 5: the guy who helped me out. He helped me with 139 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 5: my irons. You got them ted up perfectly. But then 140 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 5: we went to the putt and green. I was draining 141 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 5: them putts because that's the most important part of golf. 142 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 2: PXG fittings are fun. Schedule you're fitting today, as you 143 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 2: can hear from AJ For a limited time, you could 144 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 2: save up to twenty percent on your entire order.

You got the 150 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 4: Grom going tonight, seven earned runs in his last two games. 151 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 4: Have you seen anything different from him or you know 152 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 4: something that you might be like? Man, you know, I 153 00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 4: haven't seen this from years ago with the Mets. Now, 154 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 4: I mean, he don't feel like he's a dominant pitcher. 155 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 4: He gets that length on his fastball and then that 156 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 4: slider he likes to use. Have you seen anything different 157 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 4: from him? Or it's just the Jacob de Gram of 158 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 4: bolt and guys will finding ways to hit him. 159 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: It seems what he has said is that he just 160 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: is not locating the way he normally does, and that's 161 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: been the problem. Now he hasn't pitched much in the 162 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: last couple of years. Remember he came back at the 163 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 1: end of last season, and I would imagine it's somewhat 164 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 1: of a challenge for him to find his rhythm again. 165 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 1: And that's understandable. But he's still Jacob de Gram. The 166 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 1: stuff is still the stuff. And he's talked about kind 167 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 1: of pulling back a little bit, maybe not throwing his 168 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 1: hard max effort every pitch, which is also understandable given 169 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: the injury history that he's had. But he is still 170 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 1: an upper echolam pitcher in my mind, there's no doubt 171 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 1: about that. Went healthy, of course, and I'm anxious to 172 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 1: see how he comes out of this, how he pitches 173 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 1: the rest of the way, because it just seems to 174 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,079 Speaker 1: me it might be taking him a little bit of 175 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 1: a time, a little bit of time to kind of 176 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 1: get going again. 177 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,959 Speaker 3: What's the main question you would have for Roki Sasaki 178 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 3: this early in his big league career if you had 179 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 3: an opportunity to sit down with him. 180 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 1: That's a good question. I'd like to sit down with him. 181 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 1: He's pitching on Fox tomorrow. My main question would be, 182 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 1: what do you think is the thing you need to 183 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,079 Speaker 1: get better at. What is the thing you want to 184 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: do accomplish this season? Is it adding that slider or 185 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 1: incorporating that in a bigger way? Is it simply fastball 186 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: command and split command? Where are you in the process. 187 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 1: What has it been like for you these first four 188 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 1: or five stars, How do you think it's gone, and 189 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 1: do you feel like things are getting better? That's a 190 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 1: lot of questions I've got a lot of questions, so 191 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 1: hopefully I can maybe talk to him at some point. 192 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,559 Speaker 2: Hey, I know it's much easier to talk to Shoeo 193 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 2: Tani about his progress. I joke obviously, so he's got 194 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 2: a billion media members there. But I'll try and at 195 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 2: least get something out of you on this one, because 196 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 2: we did learn yesterday that he is still months away plural. 197 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 2: Dave Roberts said, hopefully soon he's going to face hitters. 198 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 2: Time of return still a couple months away, saying how 199 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 2: he knows it's vague, but you can't expect him to 200 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 2: pitch this year and in the postseason. What was your 201 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 2: reaction to the timetable. 202 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 1: Keyword Scott postseason and they're slow playing this. It is 203 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 1: not a surprise they want him available for October and 204 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:37,320 Speaker 1: it's as simple as that. Could he be ready sooner? 205 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 1: I'm sure he could be ready sooner. He's coming off 206 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: a major elbow surgery, his second one, nothing to be 207 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 1: dismissive of. But at the same time, it's been quite 208 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 1: some time now, and he is a guy that certainly 209 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 1: has progressed. He is throwing, and if they wanted to 210 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 1: push him along and bring him back sooner, I'm sure 211 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 1: they could. They don't want to. He doesn't want to. 212 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,680 Speaker 1: His goal is to be on the mound in October 213 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 1: and do something that well, Babe Ruth did it, but 214 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 1: no one else has done it, pitch and hit in October. 215 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 1: So that's where this is at. No one should be 216 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 1: surprised hearing the Dodgers there not yet, It's always was 217 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 1: always going to be this way. 218 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 2: And then one more on this series. Since you're covering 219 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 2: it this weekend, there'll be a lot of eyes on it. 220 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 2: I want to make sure we give the Rangers some 221 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 2: love besides Stagram. What do you think of the state 222 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 2: of the Rangers right now? They just swept An Angel's 223 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 2: team that was off to a nice start. It doesn't 224 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 2: seem like their offense has gotten cranking. Wyatt Langford is 225 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 2: on the Men and his rehab appearances right now. It 226 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,200 Speaker 2: looks like he'll be called up soon. So what do 227 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:42,439 Speaker 2: you think of this team early on? 228 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: I'm a little surprised that they haven't hit the way 229 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 1: I expected them to. I believe I picked this team 230 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 1: to go to the World Series, and the reason I 231 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 1: did was the additions of Jock Peterson and Jake Berger. 232 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 1: I thought with that and Langford coming on his second 233 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: full or really his first full season, that they would 234 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: be a team that would be back to where they 235 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:09,559 Speaker 1: were in twenty twenty three. Offensively, they haven't gotten there yet, 236 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,199 Speaker 1: but Doos has hit well, Jonahim has hit well. Seger 237 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:17,199 Speaker 1: is Seeger, he's been fine. But Marcus Simons been not good. 238 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 1: Dock not good, Burger not good. It's early. I would 239 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:23,959 Speaker 1: imagine these guys are going to hit. The one thing 240 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:28,560 Speaker 1: that they seem to have going for them is pitching depth. 241 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 1: And remember they have at this point John Gray on 242 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 1: the injured list, Cody Bradford on the injured list. They're 243 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 1: coming back, and in addition to those guys, Jack Lighters 244 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 1: coming back. He'll be back sooner. And they just feel 245 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 1: like at the deadline they don't believe they're going to 246 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 1: need pitching now famous last words, right and knock on wood, 247 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: But they have positioned themselves in a way that they 248 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 1: feel like they should be insulated if they lose a 249 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: guy or two, or if they have to just kind 250 00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 1: of mix and match the rest of the way as 251 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 1: we go forward this season, we'll see. But if they hit, 252 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 1: it's a really good team. The bullpen has been better 253 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 1: than expected. They had to patch it all together again 254 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 1: after losing most of their guys in free agency, So 255 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 1: I'm anxious to see how they kind of progress as 256 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: the season goes along. 257 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:20,439 Speaker 4: You did right with the Brian Snicker. You talked about 258 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,319 Speaker 4: him and how he's on the hot seat a little bit. 259 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,080 Speaker 4: We just saw Brian day la Cruz go down and 260 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 4: then Alex Dugo get recalled up to the big leagues. 261 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 4: Was this part of the plan a little bit or 262 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 4: was it just a matter you know, Brian day la 263 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 4: Cruz not producing a little bit because in the beginning 264 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,439 Speaker 4: of the year they had a good amount of outfielders 265 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 4: out there, you know, that could play, and then all 266 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 4: of a sudden they get a guy like Fordugo, a 267 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 4: veteran presence. 268 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 1: First of all, Todd, Brian stinkers not on the hot seat. 269 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 1: They're not going to fire him. The question with Brian 270 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 1: Snicker is going to be will he return next season, 271 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: and it's something where he wants to continue managing. That's 272 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 1: going to be the issue, not whether the Braves are 273 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 1: going to dump a guy who world serious for them, 274 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: has won a bunch of division titles for them, has 275 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:07,959 Speaker 1: done a tremendous job, so that's not happening now. As 276 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: for the outfield, Yeah, when they signed for Dogo, sure 277 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,160 Speaker 1: the intent was to get him up as soon as 278 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 1: he was ready. Remember it was a late signing. Brian 279 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 1: Delacruz was never someone that you thought would be essential 280 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: to their picture. The question going forward is going to 281 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 1: be Kalenick and can he get going and stave off 282 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 1: maybe getting replaced as well because Acuna is coming back 283 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 1: at some point now. They're going to need depth, of course, 284 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:36,560 Speaker 1: but Kalenick has not been the player that they hoped 285 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 1: when they traded for him. They gave him a lot 286 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: for him where they took on them some money for him, 287 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: and that's been kind of a vexing problem for them. 288 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 1: So that's something I'll watch with them and certainly for Dugo. 289 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 1: If he can produce the way he did in the 290 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 1: first half of the Yankees last season, he'd be a 291 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 1: good addition. 292 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 3: Ken real quick. When you go into the locker room, 293 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 3: I'm sure you heard about Patrick Corbyn getting bit by 294 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 3: the fighter. Great start. Are you gonna check to see 295 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 3: if he has a spidy sensus by just like doing 296 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 3: any little thing like knocking over a cup to see 297 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,240 Speaker 3: if he like grabs it or something like that, or 298 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 3: are you not into the Marvel superhero comics. 299 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 1: Oh, I'm totally into the Marvel Superheroes comics. But I 300 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 1: don't know that I'm planning to ENaC that when I 301 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 1: go into the clubhouse today. I don't know that that 302 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 1: would be well received or very professional on my part. 303 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 1: But all right, I'm glad to see Patrick's Okay, put 304 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: it that way. And you know what, He's been a 305 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: nice surprise for them. He's been a guy that they 306 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 1: feel getting out of Washington where he kind of had 307 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 1: to be the number one where he had the big contract, 308 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 1: maybe he'll be freed up a little bit and can 309 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 1: be a solid back end piece for them. And I 310 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 1: forgot to mention him when going through their rotation, but 311 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 1: he's been pretty good so far. 312 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, he has right, he's been pitching good innings for them, 313 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 2: and Kratz, you should save that question. We'll get Patrick 314 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 2: Corbyn on the show if he keeps this up. That 315 00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 2: is a perfect icebreaker question. 316 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 3: I just love that. I just love that Ken likes 317 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 3: Marvel T. We made a connection as a kid. 318 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 1: I was more of a DC guy. DC comes the Batman, Superman, 319 00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 1: Green Lantern Flash that group, but Marvel's Marvel, I mean, 320 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: come on, nothing to sneeze at. 321 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 3: Well done, Ken, that's cool. 322 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 2: There's always questions from people even when he puts this 323 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 2: out and this perfect timing for it.

All right, Arena Club's gonna help us 356 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,880 Speaker 2: hit a show. Hey Otani update, and we'll talk about 357 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 2: his card coming up in a moment too. But the 358 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 2: legacy continues and the storyline is super fascinating this year, 359 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 2: So he's still a couple months away from pitching. According 360 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 2: to Dave Roberts, they still expect him to pitch this 361 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:25,879 Speaker 2: season and in the playoffs. Timetables are going to be vague. 362 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:30,199 Speaker 2: There is no past precedent here, but the Dodgers are 363 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 2: determined to get him on the mound at least at 364 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 2: some point in the regular season to get ready and 365 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 2: geared up for the playoffs. So perhaps we've been following 366 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:43,040 Speaker 2: the storyline very closely. What did you think of what 367 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:45,439 Speaker 2: Dave Roberts said? First of all, when he gives you, 368 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 2: like the a couple months, everyone wants to know, like 369 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,639 Speaker 2: when when is this happening? So can you start your 370 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 2: response with a date of return prediction? 371 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 3: They can't. They can't, Dave Roberts, Can. 372 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 2: I just give us just you gotta your you play 373 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 2: a second analyst per second? 374 00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 3: And I say August second only because when I was 375 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,119 Speaker 3: thinking about this, if he's on a six man rotation, 376 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:14,159 Speaker 3: you just back everything up. They're probably gonna skip a 377 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:17,360 Speaker 3: start in there. To me, that gives him anywhere from 378 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:22,399 Speaker 3: seven to eight starts, which kind of looks like the 379 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:25,680 Speaker 3: end of spring training to the beginning of the season. 380 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 3: They'll know what they have, you know, what if he's 381 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 3: not good, it's fine. But to me, I'm seeing seven 382 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 3: to eight starts, especially after Wadavid Dave Roberts, who is 383 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 3: one of the most upfront and open managers that I've 384 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:44,200 Speaker 3: seen talking about things and honestly talking about things. It's 385 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:47,679 Speaker 3: such a vague answer that I feel like that's I mean, 386 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:49,719 Speaker 3: that's where they're gonna go. Seven to eight starts and 387 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 3: if he's legit show Hey, he's starting in the playoffs 388 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,720 Speaker 3: for them, and the playoff rotation stuff is gonna be 389 00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 3: easy for him, like in the sense of like there's 390 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,399 Speaker 3: enough off days to keep him healthy and they just 391 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:03,120 Speaker 3: rear go and they give him about four or five 392 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 3: postseason starts. 393 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's hard. It's hard because you hear from people 394 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 4: like maybe he should never pitch again, maybe he should 395 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 4: just hit because he's the greatest hitter in the world. 396 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:17,120 Speaker 4: I would like to see him give it one more try. 397 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 4: I mean, I can't give you a date. I've learned 398 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 4: over the years with friends, family, never give a set 399 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,160 Speaker 4: date because then all of a sudden, if it doesn't 400 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,399 Speaker 4: happen that time, people are like, what are you talking about? 401 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:30,200 Speaker 4: And it's hard. It's hard to do to give a 402 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 4: couple of months out. I don't even think Dave Robert 403 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 4: should even said that, So I don't know, I don't know. 404 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 4: I don't know if there's something else they're hiding. I'm 405 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 4: not one hundred percent sure. But he's got to get 406 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:45,199 Speaker 4: going if they want him for the playoffs too. So 407 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,600 Speaker 4: I mean a couple of months would be perfect, But 408 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:51,360 Speaker 4: in a perfect world, there really isn't when it comes 409 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 4: to pitching on if you've got to be one hundred 410 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 4: percent healthy, and he's not going to be one hundred percent. 411 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:57,480 Speaker 4: Nobody right now is one hundred percent healthy when they 412 00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,200 Speaker 4: do anything, because spring training comes along and now were 413 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 4: almost a month and two as well. So you grinding, 414 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 4: you grinding, We'll see, I. 415 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,399 Speaker 2: Think what you're referring to. And let's look at this 416 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 2: card for a moment. Twos for talking Legacy Otani's twenty 417 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 2: twenty four tops Chrome Update red refractor. That's a ten 418 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 2: to ten PSA grade right there. You can find it 419 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 2: in one of those slab packs right now in Arena Club. 420 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:23,879 Speaker 2: Obviously you know the code. We'll talk about it later, 421 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 2: but this is something we haven't seen from anyone, especially 422 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 2: in modern times. And Todd father doctor Tom House, who 423 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 2: has been on this show before and who worked with 424 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 2: Nolan Ryan and then worked with the quarterbacks like Brady 425 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:40,639 Speaker 2: and Drew Brees. 426 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:40,920 Speaker 3: Right. 427 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 2: He apparently was on a show recently and said that 428 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:49,119 Speaker 2: Otani shouldn't throw another pitch. Oh, he was on Pablo 429 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 2: Tory's podcast and he said he believes Otani's shoulder can't 430 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 2: handle continuing to both hit and to pitch. Now that's 431 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 2: his opinion. Nobody's going to be comparing him to someone 432 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 2: else because there's no one else to compare him to, 433 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,399 Speaker 2: and it has not been a clean bill of health 434 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 2: for him. So, Kratz, what's your response to what he said? 435 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 3: Somebody, somebody with a named doctor in front of their name, 436 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 3: probably knows more. But that is tough. Think about it. 437 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 3: It'd be different if he was if he was a 438 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:26,159 Speaker 3: right handed hitter leading out that left shoulder. He's a 439 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 3: right handed hitter. That shoulder is gonna give, you know, 440 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 3: get a lot of work going throwing and hitting. Here's 441 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 3: my thing. Let him play. If he wants to pitch, 442 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:41,919 Speaker 3: let him pitch. We get to see this. This is 443 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:43,960 Speaker 3: what he wants to do. He's not doing it just 444 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 3: for the team. I mean just for like his glory. 445 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:50,000 Speaker 3: He's doing it to help the team. Let him pitch. 446 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,439 Speaker 3: He is a monster, by the way, Okay, he's like 447 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 3: two hundred and thirty five pounds. He's a huge dude. 448 00:22:56,640 --> 00:23:00,119 Speaker 3: He's not built like pitchers and he's rarely he's he's 449 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 3: built like a running back. Really, but maybe he can 450 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 3: withstand it. Maybe he is built differently, maybe he's able 451 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:11,680 Speaker 3: to handle this. I say, let him go, but that's 452 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 3: the fan in me, and it's not me. If he 453 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 3: says I don't want to do it, absolutely don't do it. 454 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:20,360 Speaker 3: You know, he should know his own body. 455 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think at least another two to three seasons 456 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 2: of giving this a go. Hey, there's the twenty eighteen 457 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:32,399 Speaker 2: Bowman's Best O tany Refractor.
