1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,920
Speaker 1: I don't care if the opposing team doesn't like me.

2
00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 1: I'm okay with that. It's my own guy because something different, right,

3
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:09,559
Speaker 1: but uh yeah, pull pull my own guys, and then

4
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:10,239
Speaker 1: we'll go from there.

5
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:16,959
Speaker 2: Cardinals manager Ali marmol with us right now.

6
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 3: Nice.

7
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:20,759
Speaker 4: First of all, look at that sweet, Holy go man

8
00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:24,160
Speaker 4: of being a big leig manager. Look at that sweet

9
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 4: Oh my god, how many ghosts are in that suite?

10
00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:29,159
Speaker 3: That's what I want to know.

11
00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 1: I actually don't mind this place. I like coming to Milwaukee.

12
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:35,199
Speaker 1: I'm on the news side, so no ghosts on this side.

13
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:37,960
Speaker 3: There you go. I mean you got a bar back there?

14
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:39,960
Speaker 3: I mean is it open bar? After the games?

15
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 1: Yeah? Have the coaches come over, have a drink, tossing ball?

16
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 1: So yeah, it is an open bar. How we doing?

17
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:48,639
Speaker 2: If you win at an open bar?

18
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 3: How you doing? Man?

19
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 2: So we haven't caught you during the regular season. Here

20
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 2: we saw in spring training. Are you enjoying this? And

21
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 2: I heard in an interview John Mazzeilak did the other

22
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 2: day and he's like, oh, we had some fun this

23
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 2: past offseason hearing about our lack of activity, And now

24
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,639
Speaker 2: it's been fun for me because the results are showing

25
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,199
Speaker 2: on the field that if you just play your youngsters

26
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:12,440
Speaker 2: you can get some good results. Have you felt the

27
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 2: same way?

28
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, man, it's been fun and it's a good group.

29
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:18,919
Speaker 1: We do have some young guys, we got some veteran

30
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,399
Speaker 1: sprinkled in there, but it's a really good group that's

31
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 1: coming together, man, and it's been fun and manage them.

32
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 1: We're running them out there. They're playing hard, they're playing

33
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 1: the game the right way. So for those reasons, man,

34
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 1: it's been a lot more fun than the last couple

35
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 1: of years. They're starting to build something that could be

36
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 1: fun to watch for several years. So that that part

37
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 1: I'm excited about.

38
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,760
Speaker 4: Ollie. How great has it been to have Nolan around?

39
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:45,480
Speaker 4: I mean, how happy are you that he said, no,

40
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,039
Speaker 4: I don't think I really want to go to Houston.

41
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 4: I'm gonna stay in Saint Louis and help mentor these

42
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 4: young guys. And also he's having a good year.

43
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: He is man, and his defense is back to what

44
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 1: you're used to. He's in a good spot mentally too.

45
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: When you look at Nolan, he didn't start the way

46
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 1: he wanted to. But this is a guy like you

47
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 1: land in Milwaukee, you land in these cities he's taking

48
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 1: different guys to dinner in the clubhouse. He's doing what

49
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 1: you would expect him to do. So for those reasons, man,

50
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,600
Speaker 1: I enjoy having the veterans around, like in twenty two,

51
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: having Ap and those guys around last year, Goldie and Nato.

52
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 1: So it's good to have those guys in the clubhouse.

53
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:21,919
Speaker 1: Turn a year like this when you have so many

54
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 1: young guys, because they they're able to model it and

55
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 1: keep things in check. So I enjoy having a not

56
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 1: a he's been great to me, but uh yeah, he

57
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 1: is having a good year, and I think it's a

58
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:34,359
Speaker 1: matter of time before he gets hot. He starts to

59
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:35,919
Speaker 1: feel a little bit better about his swing, which is

60
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:36,359
Speaker 1: a good thing.

61
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:41,079
Speaker 5: How much of this success for the young guys is consistency,

62
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 5: Like before your roster was, Hey, great job at second base,

63
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,919
Speaker 5: go play center field. Hey you're doing awesome in centerfield.

64
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 5: We're gonna play you at shortstop. Actually we're gonna sit

65
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 5: you down. You're hitting this well. No, Now it's like, hey,

66
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:57,519
Speaker 5: you know what, one through eight is pretty much similar

67
00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 5: in your lineup every single night.

68
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,639
Speaker 1: That's been the key to it is these young guys

69
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 1: showing up everythy knowing exactly where they're going to play

70
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 1: and where they're going to hit. Hi the lineup. We

71
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 1: haven't messed around a whole lot with the lineup. When

72
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 1: it comes to just left right matchups, our lineup is

73
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 1: what it is, Newton and Donnie in the one to

74
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 1: three and if we're facing the left that we've kept

75
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 1: it the same way, man. But the consistency in that

76
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:20,920
Speaker 1: part of it has led to consistency on the field.

77
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 1: And these guys are doing a really nice job defensively.

78
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: That's why it's hard of kind of moved Donovan from

79
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:26,679
Speaker 1: second base and bopping them around and play them in

80
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 1: the outfield and third on days off and things like that.

81
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 1: It's he's been consistent, so I want to keep him

82
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 1: at one position and the lineup as well as far

83
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 1: as the batting order. But they're showing up and putting

84
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 1: in the work every day. That's been the key to

85
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 1: all of it. Man. They're hungry to be coached, and

86
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 1: they enjoy the feedback, even on days where the feedback

87
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 1: isn't pleasant, like, they enjoy kind of hearing what's next

88
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:52,839
Speaker 1: for their career, and they've been good about it. Man.

89
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 4: Is that the cardinal way is that the cardinal way,

90
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 4: because what is the cardinal way?

91
00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 5: I don't know.

92
00:03:58,320 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 3: I played there. I didn't really know what the card

93
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 3: way it was.

94
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 1: To tell me that way, I mean, people describe it

95
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 1: somebody is, to be quite honest with you, at the

96
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: end of the day, it's when I came up through

97
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 1: the minor leagues. It was a matter of putting in

98
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 1: the work and doing the little things well, never settling

99
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 1: for just mediocrey. It's just you have to get after it.

100
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,159
Speaker 1: So call it what you want, are guys, you are

101
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:27,480
Speaker 1: going about it extremely well.

102
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,840
Speaker 5: I gotta ask your catchers. I don't know if that's

103
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 5: the next topic that we should go to. You have

104
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 5: Ivon Herrera, you have Poso, you have Pahes, who I

105
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 5: heard from one of your coaches is like the glue

106
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 5: guy in the clubhouse. You got rid of, not rid of,

107
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 5: but you moved Wilson to first base. Who is the

108
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,719
Speaker 5: pre eminent all star catcher, all this stuff, and now.

109
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,719
Speaker 6: You have three catchers. You can't figure out who to

110
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 6: play because they're all raking. You're gonna be like a

111
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,600
Speaker 6: triple A team soon where you have three catchers in

112
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 6: your lineup and it's just be a bunch of good

113
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 6: looking dudes that are banging. How can you get all

114
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 6: of these guys to consistently play by the way that

115
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:09,039
Speaker 6: they're hitting the ball.

116
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 1: When I look at it. Herreras Reken he's a professional

117
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 1: hitter man. He does a lot of things well, especially

118
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 1: for his age. The way he handles his at bats,

119
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 1: it's pretty impressive. Paz is more of a defensive first

120
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 1: type of guy, and he's done a really nice job.

121
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 1: If you can live with this guy every day and

122
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 1: watch the way he prepares, understands his staff but understands

123
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 1: the opposition, and how well he kind of gains the

124
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 1: trust of everybody on that staff. Man, it's it's fun

125
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,239
Speaker 1: to watch and it's hard not to catch him because

126
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 1: of how well prepared he is. So we've mixed and

127
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:47,599
Speaker 1: matched Pozo with Libertoire and Piz gets the bulk of it,

128
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: and we want to keep her bad in the lineup.

129
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,679
Speaker 1: So we got a little rotation going that's played well

130
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,720
Speaker 1: up to now, and we'll continue it until we feel

131
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: like we have to make a change. But at the

132
00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 1: at the moment, man, it's it's worked. Ah.

133
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 2: I got two fan questions coming your way, and one

134
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,480
Speaker 2: is related to this conversation. A lot of fans are

135
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 2: going ask about Jimmy Crooks. Isn't he a catcher too?

136
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,920
Speaker 1: Yes, we got Jimmy Crookz, we got Bernal, We got

137
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: several guys down below that project to be pretty good

138
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: catchers at the big league level. So we'll have some

139
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:26,160
Speaker 1: decisions to make. Having depth is a good thing, hard decisions.

140
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 1: I'd rather have those hard decisions to make as a

141
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:30,680
Speaker 1: staff and with the front office. But yeah, we got

142
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,239
Speaker 1: we got some guys coming that can play.

143
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,159
Speaker 2: The other consensus question coming in from fans is to

144
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:40,159
Speaker 2: ask about Jordan Walker, any timetable and what did you

145
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:44,040
Speaker 2: see from him right before he hit the shelf, because

146
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 2: there was a little more success. From a very casual

147
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 2: fan perspective, here is watching all the teams feel like

148
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 2: sometimes there's I mean, he's made a lot of changes

149
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:53,840
Speaker 2: over his first few years to try and figure out

150
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 2: what's working for him. So did you feel like he

151
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 2: was starting to find that change to actually lock in with.

152
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 1: I do, and it suck that he got hurt when

153
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 1: he did, because we were starting to kind of gain

154
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 1: a little traction there offensively, defensively, I mean, John Jay

155
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 1: has been incredible for him.

156
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 4: No, nope, no you goet No.

157
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 3: No, it wasn't. I mean because John j thinks he's

158
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 3: a player doesn't mean he's a good coach.

159
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 1: He let me tell you, let me tell you how

160
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,559
Speaker 1: he's a really good coach, Like, really really good coach.

161
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 1: This dude cares. He's locked into every single detail and

162
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 1: he doesn't have a problem. One of the best things

163
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: is like he one, he's relatable, but he can hold

164
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 1: you accountable in a way where guys don't get defensive.

165
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 1: He's going to tell you exactly what he thinks at

166
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 1: all times, but he has the resume to back it up.

167
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 1: Man Like, he's gone through the ups and downs of

168
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 1: being a big leaguer and what he's done for Jordan,

169
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 1: not only for Jordan, but the entire outfield. Man Like,

170
00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 1: it's just putting him on a really good routine where

171
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 1: when the game starts, they're confident. They're confident in going

172
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:04,480
Speaker 1: out there and playing with some freedom and not worrying

173
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 1: about making mistakes. He's going to make a mistake and

174
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 1: do it on the aggressive side. And we've seen Jordan

175
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 1: go from a guy that was somewhat of a liability

176
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:14,120
Speaker 1: out in right field too. We're on his off days.

177
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 1: We're putting in for late defense, and that's a big

178
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 1: deal for the confidence of a young player like Jordan. Offensively,

179
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 1: he started to actually do some things well, and Brownie's

180
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 1: been good for him. There are some changes there. The

181
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 1: league starting to figure him out. They're spinning them down

182
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,559
Speaker 1: in a way he couldn't recognize spin and it caused

183
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 1: some trouble. But we started to do a better job

184
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 1: of that as of late. Then he got hurt. So

185
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,400
Speaker 1: my hope is to have him here sooner than later.

186
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:40,080
Speaker 1: I think we're days away, not weeks, which is great.

187
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 3: All right.

188
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:43,199
Speaker 4: By the way, you guys go to Chicago after this,

189
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,840
Speaker 4: just make sure John Jay doesn't do things he's not

190
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:50,080
Speaker 4: supposed to, because he's been known to be handcuffed before it,

191
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:51,680
Speaker 4: and this time he's going to the White Sox.

192
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,439
Speaker 1: He's warning, We'll.

193
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 4: Warning, just warn him to be careful because now he's

194
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,679
Speaker 4: going down to the White Sox. So there's If he

195
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 4: thought regularly was bad, just imagine how bad it could

196
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 4: be on the South Side.

197
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,680
Speaker 3: I'm just saying, don't tell them not to get too cold.

198
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 1: Were you the one behind that one?

199
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 4: I was the only one behind that I was the

200
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:13,680
Speaker 4: only one who knew, So people that don't know, I

201
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:14,840
Speaker 4: had John Jay arrested and.

202
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:16,080
Speaker 3: Regular, yeah, we've told it.

203
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 4: He was scared to death to say the least. But

204
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 4: he deserved it all right because he put his butt

205
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:21,560
Speaker 4: in my face.

206
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 3: It was a whole.

207
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 4: But the question I have for you is, you know,

208
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 4: when you first took this job a few years ago,

209
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 4: there was no gray.

210
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 3: Okay in this beard?

211
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 4: Is this one managing does to you? I know, is

212
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,080
Speaker 4: this one managing does to you? It turns your hair grain?

213
00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:38,400
Speaker 4: Is it because descalso is so close to you all

214
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 4: the time.

215
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,440
Speaker 1: No, it's it's managing. And when you play that many

216
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 1: one run ball games, this is what you get right here.

217
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,719
Speaker 1: It's uh, it was completely black and twenty two and

218
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:48,440
Speaker 1: it's kind of like those before and after pictures of

219
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 1: a president. So yeah, it'll take years off your life

220
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 1: for sure.

221
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 2: If you're one of those on the go people, or

222

00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 5: so good and I'm hearing this from other people and

246

Speaker 5: the little bit that we've interacted, you are so good

247
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:07,120
Speaker 5: at connecting with the players. How during the time that

248

250
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 5: great guy, but I'm bringing my own guy. How do

251
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:20,760
Speaker 5: you make that transition into this year going? You know what,

252
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:23,880
Speaker 5: I'm going to be who I am. I'm going to

253
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 5: be here for the players. Whatever happens with Hein Bloom,

254
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 5: when he comes in and Mozlac leaves. How do you

255
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 5: make that transition because you have to like address the

256
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 5: elephant in the room that you know what, we don't

257
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 5: know what tomorrow holds, but I'm going to be here

258
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:39,840
Speaker 5: for you guys today.

259
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 1: Dude, I'm gonna be as honest as that can be.

260
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,559
Speaker 1: I don't worry about it at all, not even a

261
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,560
Speaker 1: little bit. I'm here for the players. Like you said, man,

262
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:52,320
Speaker 1: I show up every day and I want to make

263
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,040
Speaker 1: sure that a couple of things happen, that my staff

264
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,600
Speaker 1: knows I have their back and that I'll do whatever

265
00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 1: they need in order for them to do their jobs well,

266
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 1: and that the players know that I have their back,

267
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:04,840
Speaker 1: and whether they're in a good run or a bad run,

268
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,160
Speaker 1: man that that I that we're there to come alongside

269
00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,960
Speaker 1: of them and do this together. So I don't spend

270
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,120
Speaker 1: a whole lot of time on worrying about next year,

271
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:15,200
Speaker 1: what's going to happen. The transition has actually been really good.

272
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 1: The collaboration between them two of mo really focusing on

273
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 1: the big league club and how I'm focusing on steading

274
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:24,200
Speaker 1: up and just put in certain systems in place for

275
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,079
Speaker 1: a minor league to continue to move in the right

276
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 1: direction has been really good. So I've been able to

277
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 1: meet with both of them, and to your point, man,

278
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:33,960
Speaker 1: it's it's so much easier to do life when you

279
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,319
Speaker 1: can just be yourself. And that's what I'll continue to do.

280
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 1: I woke up for the last nineteen years trying to

281
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 1: make this org better and I'll continue to do that.

282
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 1: So I'll keep focusing on the staff and the players

283
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 1: and let that play out however it does.

284
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 2: Man, Oh, I got one for you from yeah before,

285
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:52,320
Speaker 2: because that was a cool game. There were a lot

286
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:57,320
Speaker 2: of people watching that one yesterday. I mean, wow, cool,

287
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,679
Speaker 2: cool for fans, not your hitters, Yes, for fans. Okay,

288
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,200
Speaker 2: So their thoughts on what you saw? Yes, on both

289
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 2: sides really because for you, first off, I mean, Sunny

290
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 2: Gray has been awesome, so this was a blip and

291
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 2: so what did you see there on his side? And

292
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:12,840
Speaker 2: then on the other side, Yeah, I would love a

293
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:16,080
Speaker 2: little scattering report on Jacob Mizrawski, who the Brewers waited

294
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,280
Speaker 2: for because it's not like he's twenty. They waited a

295
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,200
Speaker 2: little bit for him to get some control, and I

296
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 2: think he's got it.

297
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:25,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, now you nailed it. And I enjoy those matchups.

298
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:31,280
Speaker 1: They are fun. Jacob was good, I mean plus extension.

299
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:33,079
Speaker 1: I mean, this is a lanky dude. It feels like

300
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 1: he's just putting the ball in the catcher's bit and

301
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:38,679
Speaker 1: it's one hundred and one hundred and two, one hundred

302
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,240
Speaker 1: and three and he was spinning it at eighty seven

303
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 1: eighty eight with good depth. It's a tough at bat.

304
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,079
Speaker 1: I felt like second time through, our timing was a

305
00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 1: little better. Our bats were a little better. We drew

306
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:49,720
Speaker 1: some walks and put some balls in play, so that

307
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:52,719
Speaker 1: that part of it was good. But that's a good arm.

308
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,559
Speaker 1: I mean, you feel like you're facing a closer from

309
00:13:55,600 --> 00:14:00,120
Speaker 1: pitch number one. So it was impressive to watch him.

310
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:01,560
Speaker 1: I'm not sure what the what the injury was. I

311
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 1: hope he's okay, man because there's definitely a future there.

312
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 1: And then Sonny, you said it, he's been good. They

313
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 1: got to him and strung together a couple of hits

314
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,079
Speaker 1: there in order to kind of get him out of

315
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 1: the game. But he's been really good for us. I

316
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:14,560
Speaker 1: love the way he competes. Man, this is a guy

317
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 1: that just shows up. He's so detailed, so he'll get

318
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 1: back on track. That's the That's the least of my worries.

319
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 4: Hey, best picture you guys have faced this year's or

320
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 4: least maybe lest couple of school bol Skimes Miserawski. I mean,

321
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 4: who's who's the guy that stands out when you look

322
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 4: back and say this is the best.

323
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 1: This is gonna probably throw you off a little bit

324
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,640
Speaker 1: because of how it's been for him as of late.

325
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 1: But Bobby Miller, when he threw against us a couple

326
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 1: of years that was at their place opening day, I

327
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 1: believe it was filth. It was absolute filth and it

328
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 1: hasn't gone away as but he did that nine was

329
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 1: was unhaple skiing. I mean we we sed him quite

330
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: a bit. I mean a really good arm. We've been

331
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 1: able to kind of win a couple of games sinces,

332
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 1: but they're never easy. And this guy what he's doing,

333
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,240
Speaker 1: he's tough to face and school as well. We have

334
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 1: some pretty good arms, but the list he just gave pretty.

335
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 2: Good, Yeah, really good. I got one more and I

336
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,640
Speaker 2: think A just got one more. So this is a

337
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 2: fun one. I don't know if you caught this. The

338
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 2: Athletic did a player poll and you were on the

339
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 2: poll for managers that a guy would least want to

340
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 2: play for. But wait, there's a caveat hold on. Because

341
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 2: we talked about this a lot yesterday. You might be like, what,

342
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 2: what a dick bringing this up? Wait, so they pulled something. Players, No,

343
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 2: I got you hold on because I had your back yesterday. Ali,

344
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 2: they pulled it. They pulled one hundred something players. Okay,

345
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 2: only about forty replied to this particular one. So for

346
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 2: the least to play for, it was just a bunch

347
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 2: of dudes that had like three or four boats, right,

348
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 2: So you happen to hit that list among many others.

349
00:15:56,720 --> 00:16:00,440
Speaker 2: And the Athletic basically like delegitimize the list itself because

350
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 2: they released some of the quotes. So this is the

351
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 2: one they put out for you on Ali Marmal. Here's

352
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 2: here's an example of a player that said, oh, I

353
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 2: don't want to play for Ali. Quote, I don't really

354
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 2: know many managers. I'm trying to think of someone in

355
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 2: our division, just so I can say someone who's the

356
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:22,720
Speaker 2: Cardinals guy? Yeah, just put him down. So so, hey, shocker,

357
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 2: your rivals think about you and don't like you. So

358
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,000
Speaker 2: what did you think about that? Because for me, yeah,

359
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 2: you want to pull thousands of guys they've all played,

360
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,560
Speaker 2: you know, guys that have played for everyone. Cool, but

361
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 2: they kind of belittled what they did there. So I

362
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 2: thought it was funny.

363
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 1: No. I love articles like that, They're my favorite. I

364
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,760
Speaker 1: mean to simplify, ay J, what what did opposing players

365
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 1: think of you when you were a player?

366
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 3: Bud Oh? We talked about that, trust me.

367
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,600
Speaker 4: We talked about that yesterday because we had the writer

368
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 4: on it, and I said, well, you know I won

369
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 4: most hated all the time.

370
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, but here's the thing. And then when

371
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 1: you come over the guys that you actually played with

372
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 1: once he got traded and came over, what did they

373
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 1: think of you?

374
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 4: I mean, I think they like me, most of them,

375
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:09,399
Speaker 4: but I don't think it wayneright likes because now we

376
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:10,200
Speaker 4: have to work together.

377
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 3: So I think Wayne right one.

378
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,199
Speaker 1: I like even in talking to Scowls and Jay like,

379
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 1: they they've mentioned it, like man like you see him

380
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:18,400
Speaker 1: across the way and you just like you hate him,

381
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 1: like his act, all of it, and then you get

382
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 1: him in the clubhouse, you're like, he's my favorite dude,

383
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,159
Speaker 1: Like I want him here for as long as he

384
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:28,199
Speaker 1: wants to be here. So I take it as like

385
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 1: I don't I don't care, Like if the opposing team

386
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:36,000
Speaker 1: doesn't like me, I'm okay with that. It's my own guys,

387
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:38,520
Speaker 1: that's something different, right, but uh yeah, pull pull my

388
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:41,439
Speaker 1: own guys, and then we'll go from there. All right.

389
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 4: Listen, we learned this at Doctor Phillips High School. That's

390
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:46,879
Speaker 4: why you're hated and I was hated, Okay, so I

391
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 4: get it. It's what we teach ATDP oh DP, Go Panthers,

392
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 4: whatever you want to say, that's what we talk, all right.

393
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 4: I gotta ask you this because we recently had Max

394
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:58,160
Speaker 4: Muncy on and you guys trolled Clayton Kershaw, so.

395
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,680
Speaker 3: I know that was your what you learned deep right.

396
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:02,879
Speaker 4: You put the video up there, but the reason you

397
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:06,199
Speaker 4: did it was because your fellow alumnus from Doctor Phillip

398
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,600
Speaker 4: is on that video, So I know what you guys

399
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 4: were really doing, right, So I appreciate it, So thank you.

400
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,880
Speaker 4: Guys for trolling Kershaw with me even though I wasn't

401
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 4: even on the roster.

402
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 3: But it was cool.

403
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 1: You're an idiot.

404
00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was good theater, it was.

405
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:26,840
Speaker 3: It made for good. It got some good quotes out

406
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,119
Speaker 3: of Clayton. I mean it was good. It was. It

407
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:30,399
Speaker 3: was funny. I mean, come on, it was.

408
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,240
Speaker 1: The guy's a stud man. He's done it a while.

409
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 1: He's had a huge impact on and off, so I

410
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:38,479
Speaker 1: got nothing there. He's a good dude.

411
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,399
Speaker 4: He is a great That's what made it so funny

412
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:44,960
Speaker 4: because he is such a great dude that the fact

413
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 4: that that happened and then I don't know, it just

414
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 4: it made me love.

415
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 3: It still makes me laugh when I think about it.

416
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 2: It's not your job to think about this stuff, Ali,

417
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:55,480
Speaker 2: but our job is to promote the game and fun

418

00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:17,200
