Because it looks like you're 15 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:43,640 Speaker 1: somewhere we need to know. 16 00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 3: I'm in AJ's land. The press box they were like, oh, 17 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 3: we thought AJ would show up because he's better looking, 18 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:51,839 Speaker 3: and I'm like, all right, well that's fine, but now 19 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:54,800 Speaker 3: I'm in Milwaukee. We got a Legends game here at 20 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 3: American I gotta I gotta look at the name of it, 21 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 3: American Family Field. I mean, maybe I can, maybe I 22 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 3: can turn my shot around. So everybody can see the 23 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:05,960 Speaker 3: pre game workout for all the players here. But uh yeah, 24 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,959 Speaker 3: we got Legends game post game, so we'll see how 25 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 3: that goes for me. 26 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: Well, will you catch though? Will you catch it? Will 27 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: you get in it? Bat? What are you gonna do? 28 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,679 Speaker 3: I was honestly looking at our roster and unfortunately, I 29 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 3: think we have two outfielders. So I'm really really fearful 30 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:25,040 Speaker 3: that they're gonna put Luke Roy behind a dish and 31 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 3: they're gonna make me go in the outfield. And I'm 32 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 3: looking at the outfield right now and I'm like, I'll 33 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 3: go get the ball when it stops rolling, that's pretty 34 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 3: much mine. But yeah, I'll catch. I think we're playing 35 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 3: three innings if I hope I get an ab pictures 36 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 3: are throwing. The thing I'm really worried about, more than 37 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:42,960 Speaker 3: running after the ball in the outfield is the fact 38 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 3: that we're not having helmets. So this is like a 39 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 3: Legends game kind of thing, and they don't have helmets. 40 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 3: So I'm like, if Ben sheets who's here? If he 41 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 3: drops a curveball on me, I'm definitely gonna flinch. If 42 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 3: he throws three curveballs in a row, I'm flinching all 43 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 3: three of them. No way, I'm hanging in there without 44 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 3: a helmet on. So like, I don't I just don't 45 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 3: think I can. I don't think I can do it. Todd, 46 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 3: have you ever done one of these? Have you ever 47 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 3: done one of these? 48 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 4: I'm doing. 49 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,359 Speaker 5: I'm doing my first Old Timers game for the Yankees 50 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 5: coming up August State. 51 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 3: So wait, wait, wait, wait wait you got invited to that? 52 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:17,800 Speaker 4: I did.

I remember when I did a couple of 81 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 2: a few years ago. The next day was a little 82 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,519 Speaker 2: bit different than waking up on a normal Saturday or 83 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 2: Sunday whatever that whatever day of the games were so 84 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 2: because as much as you guys will try not to 85 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 2: go as hard as you can, you still wake up 86 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 2: and you're like, man, I went a little bit harder 87 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 2: than I thought I was. So I remember Samanna Bananas 88 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 2: that was it last year or whenever that was. I 89 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 2: woke up and I was like the next day, I 90 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 2: was like, ah, I feel pretty good, but ah, the 91 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 2: old obleaque still a little bit sore because that's a 92 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 2: little bit more swings than I've taken the last I 93 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 2: don't know, seven years or anything. 94 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: So there'll be fun. You guys enjoy it. 95 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 3: We had we had a reception last night. Everyone's hanging 96 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 3: out telling stories. There are some dudes that are like, like, 97 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 3: Bill Hall's here. I'm like, you look like you can 98 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 3: still play, Like he hasn't played since fourteen. He's like, yeah, 99 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 3: you know, I hit. Some guys are like, oh, you 100 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 3: hit all the time. Like these dudes are like, I mean, 101 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 3: who else is here? Eric Sogart he just was playing 102 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,799 Speaker 3: for the with the Czech team and a WBC getting 103 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,839 Speaker 3: ready for that. Like Eric Dames looks like he looks 104 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,159 Speaker 3: like he just got done working out with Yondi Diez. 105 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 3: I'm not sure who's bigger right now. They are two 106 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 3: absolute monsters. 107 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 2: Well let's seehere, you're righting all right, Let's charge Let's 108 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 2: charge them out, guys, let's charge out. Is it gonna happen? 109 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 2: That's the question, is it really gonna happen? Jeff Fletcher 110 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 2: from the Orange County Register wrote the Angels have several 111 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:54,359 Speaker 2: assets most notably Redeptmers and Jose Soriana, who could be 112 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 2: active trade chips to help replenish the young talent in 113 00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,600 Speaker 2: the system. New GM John mose Look in charge of 114 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 2: the baseball ups. Can he get through to Artie Morino 115 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,919 Speaker 2: and actually say we have chips to trade, We're gonna 116 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 2: actually do it and help them make this team worth 117 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:11,600 Speaker 2: the crap because they haven't been worth the crap basically 118 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 2: since Mike Trout has been there, right, they haven't won 119 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 2: a playoff game with Mike Trout. Mike Trout, I think 120 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 2: he has eleven playoff at bats or something crazy like 121 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 2: that in his entire career. So, Todd, do you think 122 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 2: this will actually be the year where the Angels say 123 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 2: we're gonna sell our best players and actually try to 124 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 2: win in the future. 125 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 5: I mean they they should, They definitely should. I was 126 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:35,839 Speaker 5: a big component when Sho heeo Tani was still on 127 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 5: the team that had an opportunity to get anything they 128 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 5: really wanted for him. I think that was mistake number one. 129 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 5: This could be mistake number two. They do. They have 130 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 5: some really good assets here that they can get rid of. 131 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,359 Speaker 5: I mean Zach Netto, I mean, talk talk about a 132 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 5: guy that's a good fit in some teams. He's absolutely incredible. 133 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 5: I know the Red Sox view him as a strong fit. 134 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:01,359 Speaker 5: I know, you know, even Mike Trout. Guys, listen, I 135 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 5: understand about the money. But there's a possibility that some 136 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 5: teams do want him and bring him to a team 137 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 5: where he can actually get into the playoffs. Yeah, this 138 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 5: should be the team where if I'm sitting there and 139 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 5: I'm Angels and I'm the brass, like, hey, come to 140 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 5: me with whatever you got, I'm waiting right now, tell 141 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 5: me talk to me. I'm gonna I'm gonna sit there 142 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 5: and ponder about every little thing you guys are talking about. 143 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 5: They have a bunch of chips, and guess what, they're 144 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 5: easily in the right move, they can make a really 145 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 5: big dent into their system. 146 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 4: In a good way and maybe even get. 147 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 5: A couple veteran guys back if possible. You know, that 148 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 5: can help them down the line. 149 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 1: All right, But why this year, Todd, That's the question 150 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:44,039 Speaker 1: for me. 151 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,040 Speaker 2: It's we've been talking about this since show Hey was there, right, 152 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 2: and he's been in the Dodgers now for three This 153 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 2: is his third year with the Dodgers. Mike Trout has 154 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 2: been Hey, Mike Trout should be traded, right, They've had 155 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 2: pieces before that they could trade. Why would it be 156 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 2: different this year? Is it just because was Aylock's there? 157 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 2: But Zaylock does Moze Loac have Arty Morino's ear because 158 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 2: in the past, Arty Morinos put the kaibosh on all 159 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 2: of this. So let's sell our best players. So why 160 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 2: this year? It doesn't make sense that all of a sudden, 161 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 2: other than John mose. 162 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 5: Look, yeah, I mean because they've made the mistake of 163 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 5: not doing it. I mean, they got to understand this 164 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 5: team is not making the playoffs anytime soon. 165 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 4: They have.

I was in 335 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 5: the town called Fort Lee, which was right before the 336 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 5: GW the bridge and it would take me about twelve 337 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,920 Speaker 5: minutes to get to the stadium and stuff, so depending 338 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 5: on when I left. I didn't want to take that 339 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 5: track every day. So we had an apartment there and 340 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 5: it was it was a good thing. You know, not 341 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 5: many people some people move across the country. So but yeah, 342 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 5: it's hard to fin it's hard. It's uh, it's an 343 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 5: adjustment you have to really figure out. So for me, lucky, 344 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 5: I had you know, my wife doing all the jobs. 345 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 5: I wouldn't trust anybody else. 346 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 1: That's perfect. 347 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 2: People don't realize how much the wives do for people 348 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 2: and players behind the scenes, right, So it's a crazy time. 349 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 2: I know. When I, like I said, when I was 350 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 2: DFA and I went from Boston, I had a two 351 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 2: week break in between. Then I had to go to 352 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 2: Saint Louis try to find an apartment. Luckily, Mack Carboner 353 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 2: was moving out of his apartment. He had just gotten 354 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 2: rich and bought a house, so he gave me his 355 00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 2: lease and it was fully furnished. So for me, it 356 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 2: was like simple. I got to Saint Louis, I met 357 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 2: him on the road. I got to Saint Louis, I 358 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 2: just slid right into mac Carbenter's. 359 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 1: He just gave me the keys. 360 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 2: I had to clean the sheets a little bit and 361 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,240 Speaker 2: some of the couches from where he had set around 362 00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 2: his beard had fallen into the into the stuff. But 363 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 2: after that, man, it was simple. So Kratzy, did you 364 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 2: ever have you ever get traded. 365 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: In the middle of the season. 366 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:05,000 Speaker 4: Oh? 367 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, twenty fourteen. I was the big move for the Royals. 368 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 3: They figured they'd bring me in and take like twenty 369 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 3: four at bats for the rest of the season, including 370 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 3: the playoffs. Yeah, in fourteen, I got traded at the break. 371 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 3: At seventeen, I got traded. I mean when I say 372 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 3: at the break, I'm sorry at the trade deadline, it's seventeen. 373 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 3: I got traded to the Yankees August thirtieth. Yeah, August thirtieth, 374 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:32,280 Speaker 3: they called. So it was when they used to have 375 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 3: the second trade deadline. I was in TRIPAA with Columbus 376 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 3: and el Gary and Boston Roman both got in a 377 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 3: fight with Miguel Cabrera in Detroit and they ended up 378 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 3: both getting suspended. So they're like, well, we need a 379 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 3: third guy. In September and KYLEI Goshioka was hurt, so 380 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 3: they traded for me from Columbus, so I got to 381 00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 3: go to New York at two at bats that year. 382 00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 3: It was a huge, huge piece of that playoff team. 383 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 3: And then in eighteen I got traded not to trade deadline, 384 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,400 Speaker 3: but in May to this you know here in Milwaukee, 385 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:12,400 Speaker 3: and so I got to got to play there. So yeah, 386 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 3: I got traded a lot of times, only at trade deadline, 387 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:17,639 Speaker 3: only in fourteen and seventeen. 388 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 2: Grats you, by the way, before I have a quick 389 00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 2: comment the guy behind you, can you used to say hi 390 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:22,400 Speaker 2: to him? 391 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 1: For me? 392 00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:24,680 Speaker 2: Can you just wave to the guy behind you over 393 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 2: your shoulder see him say you're on TV. They wanted 394 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:30,159 Speaker 2: me to say hi, said AJ says hi, tell me 395 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 2: a J. Perzinski says hi. He said he he said 396 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:36,639 Speaker 2: he knows you. He said he doesn't hate you, but 397 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,360 Speaker 2: he knows you. No, yess not true because I bring 398 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 2: him great food every time every time I come into 399 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 2: the Fox game. We have a huge spread, so I 400 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:46,880 Speaker 2: know that's not true. He said, he said he brings 401 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:51,360 Speaker 2: you great food every time. Right, They say, he said, 402 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 2: it's it. He said, you know, guy, he knows. By 403 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,919 Speaker 2: the way, the story that I always tell in fourteen 404 00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 2: when I switched teams, I actually sold my house in 405 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:00,920 Speaker 2: Orlando and I had to move into a rental. And 406 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 2: when I got home after the season thought I was 407 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 2: driving in an Uber from the hotel the season was 408 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,440 Speaker 2: over to my new house, which was a rental, and 409 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 2: I didn't know where it was, and the Uber driver goes, 410 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:11,400 Speaker 2: where are we going? 411 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: And I was like, I don't know. 412 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:14,680 Speaker 2: I think it's his house right here, and he goes, 413 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 2: have you never been to your own house? 414 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: And I said, actually nope, because we moved out. 415 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 2: My wife had to move us out, put us in 416 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:23,680 Speaker 2: a new house, kids included. And when I got home, 417 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 2: I had never been there. I've never even seen it, 418 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 2: but we lived in it for a year until our 419 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 2: new house was done. So yeah, that's my that's my 420 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,680 Speaker 2: almost trade in the middle of the season story right there. 421 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:37,199 Speaker 3: That's the reality. That's the reality that there is so much. 422 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,440 Speaker 3: I mean, usually when you're traded, you're rarely traded as 423 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 3: like an older guy. You rarely traded to a trash team. 424 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,400 Speaker 3: They're not like picking some dude up to finish under 425 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 3: five hundred. So you're an older guy, you get traded 426 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:50,680 Speaker 3: to a playoff team, and it's awesome. There's so many 427 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,680 Speaker 3: like great things like you were on the A's and 428 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 3: now you're on the Brewers. Whatever it is like you 429 00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:59,639 Speaker 3: sit there and you go, this is great for my career. 430 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:04,640 Speaker 3: There is so many things. I moved ninety four times 431 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:10,360 Speaker 3: in my almost twenty five years of marriage now, and 432 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:14,200 Speaker 3: it was all because of baseball spring training, to double 433 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 3: A to Triple A, to the big leagues, back to 434 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:21,360 Speaker 3: triple A. Like those moves are great. You get sent down, 435 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 3: that sucks. You get called up, it's awesome. But like 436 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 3: Todd said, the wife's the one that carries a lot 437 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:32,679 Speaker 3: of the load. And it's more than just trying to 438 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 3: find your house in an uber when you get back home. 439 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:39,080 Speaker 3: Like it's a lot of things that make it very 440 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 3: You have to be very intentional in your marriage and 441 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 3: relationship because they're going through a lot while you're going 442 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:49,200 Speaker 3: through a lot of massages and big league flights. 443 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 4: True. 444 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:55,880 Speaker 2: True, And by the way, in twenty fourteen, a good 445 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 2: thing I signed with the Cardinals because I was about 446 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 2: just far from signing with the Royals. That never would 447 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:02,159 Speaker 2: have happened for you, Crawtsey, if I would ended up 448 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:02,680 Speaker 2: what time. 449 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 3: Time, what time of year was that that you were 450 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 3: because the Royals would have never picked you up. They 451 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:08,440 Speaker 3: didn't like your kinds. 452 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 2: That's weird because I had about a two hour conversation 453 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 2: with Dayton Moore on the phone and I was I 454 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:15,399 Speaker 2: was supposed to call him back, and that was when 455 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:18,200 Speaker 2: the Cardinals called me because Yachtie got hurt. So it 456 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:22,440 Speaker 2: was about July, right after the whatever the All Star whenever, 457 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 2: the All Star break was right after the All Star breaks, 458 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 2: so it was in Cooperstown for the induction for Frank 459 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:33,160 Speaker 2: Thomas's Hall of Fame induction. So it was around July twentieth. 460 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 2: It was about this time. 461 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,159 Speaker 1: Of year, so it was right before the trade deal line. 462 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,119 Speaker 2: And so he called. Dayton Moore called me and said, hey, 463 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 2: we want you to come to the Royals. And I 464 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,119 Speaker 2: was like, okay, let's do this. The Royals were pretty 465 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,119 Speaker 2: good that year. And I talked to him for I 466 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 2: don't know, an hour on the phone or so, and 467 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 2: we had a whole conversation. 468 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:48,679 Speaker 1: He's like all right.

Tomorrow, 473 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 2: and I was like, oh, Cardinals, Royals, And at the time, 474 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 2: the Cardinals were I think we're in first place, so 475 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:03,160 Speaker 2: I obviously jumped on the Cardinals. I mean we lost 476 00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 2: in the NLCS, the Royals lost in the playoffs. It's 477 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 2: crazy how little things happen like that, and it works 478 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 2: out for some, it works out for and sometimes it 479 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 2: works out for both, like it did for you and 480 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 2: I Crossy.

Our notes say, will Warren, 517 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 3: but I think it's Cam Schlitler. I'm wanna see the 518 00:22:56,480 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 3: Phillies lineup can make an adjustment against a leading, say 519 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 3: young candidate in the American League and not just give 520 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 3: away at bats for a majority of the game and 521 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:09,879 Speaker 3: hope you get somebody in the bullpen that you know 522 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 3: they're able to do some damage against. 523 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 2: Anyways, of course, I got a code for you, Like 524 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 2: Kratzy said, you can all use the code Territory ten 525 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:19,879 Speaker 2: for ten percent off your next set of MLB tickets, 526 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 2: as Seki does ten percent off MLB tickets with promo 527 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 2: code Territory ten.

Jason Stark recently. 531 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,840 Speaker 2: Released his case for Hall of Fame players active and 532 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,080 Speaker 2: who helped their case and who has hurt their case 533 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:49,159 Speaker 2: this year. And I find this list pretty fascinating because 534 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 2: there's tiers to this and he kind of made it 535 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 2: a little bit football, ye, even though we're still in 536 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:57,119 Speaker 2: baseball season. But if we can pull up the first list, 537 00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 2: it's like in right now, in the list, there's a 538 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,160 Speaker 2: couple on you here that I'm not. Well, there's one 539 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 2: guy in here that I'm not one hundred percent sure 540 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,400 Speaker 2: is in, but I think he's in, and I want 541 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 2: to get your guys opinion. I mean, Verlander check Surezer check, 542 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 2: Trout check, Freeman check, Butts check, Judge check, Altuve check, 543 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:16,879 Speaker 2: Otani check. 544 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 1: The one guy that surprised me on this was Ronado. 545 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:22,360 Speaker 1: Gosh and there. 546 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 2: He's new to this cheer, as it says, But I 547 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:28,920 Speaker 2: didn't realize until you look at Nolan Arnado's numbers. He's 548 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 2: gonna get into the Hall of Fame. Might not be 549 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 2: first ballot, but he's definitely getting in. So now it 550 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,879 Speaker 2: was like wow, when I saw this, I didn't realize it. 551 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,119 Speaker 2: But the rest of these guys are pretty much locks 552 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:38,359 Speaker 2: for me. 553 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:41,919 Speaker 4: Todd, Yeah, I. 554 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:46,440 Speaker 5: Want to say something, but I don't know the numbers 555 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 5: because I don't want to sound like an idiot. I 556 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:51,359 Speaker 5: should have looked him up a little bit closely. But 557 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 5: I agree with you on everything. Now talk to me 558 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:57,160 Speaker 5: about hose that Altuve here a little bit. I don't 559 00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 5: think he's a definite in my opinion. 560 00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 2: Three thousand he's gonna have three thousand hits he's gonna 561 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:06,439 Speaker 2: got thready. 562 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: He did he want a m VP?

Todd's a little but heard about 566 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:14,959 Speaker 3: that now. 567 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 1: That's why Todd doesn't want to talk about it. 568 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:18,679 Speaker 4: It's here are we talking? Seven? 569 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 5: Hey, listen, I can laugh about it now, you know 570 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:27,160 Speaker 5: time as a but I'm still arked about it, Yeah 571 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:30,159 Speaker 5: for sure. But you know, listen, it's in the past. 572 00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 5: That's I mean, are some writers gonna think about that? 573 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 4: Maybe? Maybe? You know? I I mean, listen, some people 574 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:38,679 Speaker 4: have talked about it. 575 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 5: How you know it's it was one of those years 576 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 5: where the dude knew what was coming. I mean, honestly, 577 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 5: a lot of the guys did so take away seventeen. 578 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 4: What do you guys think? 579 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 1: Yes? Yes, no, yes, because he's gonna get three thousand hits. 580 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:58,080 Speaker 2: But anyways, in the League is presented by MLB Rivals 581 00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:01,119 Speaker 2: nine innings Rivals twenty six. Thank you, sorry about that. 582 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:03,640 Speaker 2: I forgot I messed up my read before we got 583 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 2: into it. But Crossey, do you agree with this list. 584 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:06,160 Speaker 1: That are all in? 585 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 3: I do agree with the list I heard it on 586 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:13,199 Speaker 3: the telecast just the other day when Nolan got his 587 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 3: two thousandth hit, and I guess we're kind of shifting 588 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 3: the bar now. I get it. All the gold gloves, 589 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 3: the platinum, the fact that he has, the fact that 590 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:29,480 Speaker 3: he has, I gotta go back to the list to you, 591 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:33,000 Speaker 3: the fact he is two thousand hits. It's cool. He's 592 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:37,360 Speaker 3: a ten time goal glover, six time platinum in the 593 00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 3: history of the game. We're gonna we're watching, We're watching 594 00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 3: Andrew Jones go in. Andrew Jones had four hundred and 595 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 3: thirty four homers and ten gold gloves, so I think 596 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:53,400 Speaker 3: the other four outfielders with ten gold gloves or more. 597 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 3: It was like Willie Mays, Ken, Griffy Junior, Aaron Jones, 598 00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:01,159 Speaker 3: I mean, Andrew Jones and Mike It So when you 599 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 3: talk about ten gold gloves, in fact he had six platinum. 600 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:06,919 Speaker 3: They didn't have platinum for all those older guys. But 601 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:11,440 Speaker 3: I guess he's a Hall of Famer. The two thousand hits, 602 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:13,720 Speaker 3: everybody's gonna want to hate on it, and he won't 603 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:17,159 Speaker 3: get the votes because it's Colorado. As I'm watching the 604 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 3: Rockies haul kick a soccer ball around here. Yes, I 605 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:24,919 Speaker 3: get it. I get that they're gonna hate on his numbers. 606 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 3: But man, three hundred and sixty seven home runs, I 607 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,400 Speaker 3: don't care where you played. Three hundred and sixty seven 608 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 3: home runs is a lot. Two thousand hits is a lot. 609 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:40,120 Speaker 3: And I think with the fact that it's two thousand 610 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,080 Speaker 3: is a bigger number, and people are going to look 611 00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:44,919 Speaker 3: at it and go, Okay, we need to revisit anybody 612 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 3: that has two thousand hits. Aja, But well, I think 613 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,119 Speaker 3: and you knew it, you honestly, you knew it, Aja. 614 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:56,919 Speaker 3: You knew two thousand hits was a huge milestone in 615 00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 3: your career. 616 00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,879 Speaker 2: Correct, Yeah, But it was different for me because I 617 00:27:59,920 --> 00:28:02,159 Speaker 2: was catcher, So that that was probably why it was 618 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 2: a bigger difference than because the position players honestly have 619 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:09,440 Speaker 2: a better opportunity other than catchers to pack to load 620 00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 2: up on the counting numbers, right, because you get to 621 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:14,639 Speaker 2: play more, and especially in today's game where you only 622 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,119 Speaker 2: have you know, catchers, Oh, you can only catch one 623 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 2: hundred games because he's gonna be so tired, right, So 624 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:22,879 Speaker 2: that's why catchers, I don't know. We'll get to it 625 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,680 Speaker 2: here later. Kratzy in different tiers because when we get 626 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 2: in Jason Starks, we get really weedy and we get 627 00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:30,840 Speaker 2: into like the deep weeds, like the knee deep weeds, 628 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:33,159 Speaker 2: and that's where he has like a catcher's a catcher 629 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,919 Speaker 2: centric category. We're gonna dig into this a little bit more, 630 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 2: but let's go while we have a chance. Let's go 631 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 2: to the next tier, and it's in the red zone 632 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 2: and across the fifty in the Bryce Harper's in for me, 633 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:45,720 Speaker 2: Machado's gonna be in gold. I mean, these four to 634 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 2: me are in. I don't know what else these guys 635 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 2: can do. Chris Sales Cy Young World Series great numbers, 636 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 2: Bryce Harper's in with the m VPS. Pachado's numbers are 637 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 2: gonna put him in by the time because he's got like, 638 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 2: by the way, y' all forget man Nay Machado has 639 00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 2: like ten more years left on his on his deal. 640 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,479 Speaker 2: Means he's gonna keep playing, and he plays even though 641 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 2: he's not playing very well. But he's just going to 642 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:07,800 Speaker 2: keep adding numbers. And to me, if you haven't looked 643 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:11,200 Speaker 2: at Paul Goldschmit numbers, they're sneaky good. Okay, So look 644 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 2: at Paul Goldschman and say, I don't know if he's in. 645 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 2: He's going to get in, and then if you go 646 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 2: to the next one, which is what across the fifty, 647 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 2: to me, Jose Ramirez is going to get in one 648 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:22,960 Speaker 2: one organization the whole time. And to me, Salvador Prez 649 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 2: is going to be in because of his home run Totals, 650 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 2: World Series, All Star Games, Gold Gloves. He's got to 651 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:30,120 Speaker 2: he checks all the boxes, and again he should only 652 00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 2: be with one organization his entire career. 653 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 1: The one on for me is Francisco Lindor. 654 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 2: I don't know if he's there yet. For me, he's 655 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 2: done a lot, but he hasn't won. He doesn't have 656 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 2: an MVP. He doesn't He's got All Star Games, he 657 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 2: got Gold Gloves and all that, but I think he's 658 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 2: got to do a couple more years. Do you guys 659 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 2: disagree with me, Kras Do you disagree that friend Frankie 660 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:51,600 Speaker 2: has to do just a little bit more. 661 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 3: He does have to do a little bit more. We're 662 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 3: at seventeen hundred hits. We're at two eighty five on 663 00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:00,200 Speaker 3: Homer if that number is way higher than and I 664 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 3: thought two eighty five is impressive, Like that is a 665 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 3: big time number, the fact that he's got a Platinum Glove, 666 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 3: five All Stars for him to do it, he's gonna 667 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 3: get up in the seven to nine All Star range. 668 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 3: And I think Lindor's superpower as a player may hurt 669 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:20,600 Speaker 3: him later in his career. Is the fact that he 670 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,760 Speaker 3: is mister consistency. They call him mister smile, but he 671 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 3: is mister consistency. He is always his ops is always 672 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:31,240 Speaker 3: at one twenty, his OPS plus I'm trying to look 673 00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:33,720 Speaker 3: here what it was for quite a few years. It's 674 00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 3: like he is so consistent that I think he might 675 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 3: have a tough time getting votes without having the big numbers, 676 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 3: without having the three thousand or the twenty nine hundred 677 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 3: hits or the four hundred homers. I'm not saying he 678 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 3: can't make it. I'm saying he's never gonna People are 679 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:52,959 Speaker 3: never gonna say got dude was one of the most 680 00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 3: dominant players of his generation. Like I'm looking at MVP 681 00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 3: voting twenty four with the Mets, he was set, that's 682 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:04,000 Speaker 3: his highest MVP. Then he had a five, then he 683 00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 3: had a six. He's been in the category, But is 684 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 3: he one of the top five most dominant players of 685 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:15,479 Speaker 3: his generation to be getting those votes, and that's going 686 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 3: to be the part where I look at him and 687 00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 3: I look at Bryce Harper. His two MVPs are going 688 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 3: to push him over. If you if you're trying to 689 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 3: compare Apple sapples, totally different players, different positions, all that stuff. 690 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 3: I just I just think it might be a little 691 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 3: bit tougher for Frankie without getting those big numbers together. 692 00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:38,680 Speaker 4: Todd thoughts, Yeah, yeah, no, I'm with I'm with both 693 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 4: of you guys on this. 694 00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 5: I think a really really good ballplayer, I don't think 695 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 5: Hall of Fame worthy yet. Okay, all of a sudden 696 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:48,960 Speaker 5: comes out and is healthy for a whole nother year 697 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:52,320 Speaker 5: and just takes off. Hey, then we can start talking. 698 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:55,160 Speaker 5: I'm not taking away from every anything from Lindor. I 699 00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:58,080 Speaker 5: think he's a fantastic ballplayer. But when I think a 700 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,960 Speaker 5: Hall of Fame, I'm thinking of guys that are gonna 701 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,480 Speaker 5: be my first pick when I'm doing something. When there 702 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:05,960 Speaker 5: asking me who's your first pick at this position? You 703 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 5: know who's the guy that you fear the most. I'm 704 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 5: not saying I don't fear him, but not in the 705 00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 5: top categories just yet. 706 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 2: All right, that's fair, agreed, agreed. All right, let's go 707 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 2: to the next Let's go to the next couple. Couple tiers, 708 00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:20,720 Speaker 2: moving the chains and drive stall. These are the where 709 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 2: it gets interesting for me because this is the ones 710 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:26,239 Speaker 2: that are really on the bubble. And somebody's got like, 711 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 2: okay Wan Soto, he's gonna get in because he's gonna 712 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 2: have the numbers. He's gonna have the Kyle Schwarver is 713 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 2: gonna hit five hundred home runs. He's gonna get in. 714 00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 2: Bobby Witt right now, for me, the way he's played, 715 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 2: if he stays healthy, he's going to get in. But 716 00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 2: then you go to the middle as yord Don Alvarez 717 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 2: done enough, has Matt Olsen done enough? Trey Turner, he's 718 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 2: a real interesting one. And then if you go to 719 00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 2: drive stall, and these are the guys who aren't having 720 00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 2: a great year. I think Garrett Cole will eventually get in. 721 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:54,080 Speaker 2: Vlad but then you go to Stanton, He's gonna hit 722 00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:57,239 Speaker 2: five hundred homers. Is the auto law right. Correa has 723 00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:00,200 Speaker 2: gotten hurt the last few years, Bregman Seeger. These guys 724 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 2: have heard of Kuna. If you take away the injuries, 725 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 2: these are the guys. This is where we could argue 726 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 2: back and forth on this. Is there one guy Todd 727 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:10,520 Speaker 2: that you pick out and says, this is my argument 728 00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 2: I want to make for or against them. 729 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, Like, listen, this is where the rubber meets the 730 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:17,960 Speaker 5: road here with Stanton, like his last couple of years 731 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 5: with injuries, is that's gonna stall him from not getting in? 732 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 5: Is he eventually going to get that five hundred home run? 733 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 5: I hope so, Yeah, I think he should. Yeah, just 734 00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:29,960 Speaker 5: staying healthy might be his biggest concern. I think that's 735 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 5: gonna be the tough one. I think there's an opportunity 736 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:34,840 Speaker 5: for him to be in the Hall of Fame. Yes, 737 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 5: I don't see it in Alvarez, Olsen, and Turner like 738 00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:43,000 Speaker 5: you talked about. I think the drive stalled for most 739 00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:46,960 Speaker 5: of those guys really good ball players. But you and 740 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:48,760 Speaker 5: me are right on the same page, Garrett call. I 741 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 5: think we'll eventually get in too. But I think one 742 00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 5: hundred per Stanton is the one that I'm I'm really like, 743 00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 5: this could go either way. I'm leaning more towards end, 744 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:03,000 Speaker 5: But everybody else in that drive stall besides Cole, I 745 00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 5: don't see. 746 00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 1: It perfect perfect Cratsy. What about you? 747 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 2: Is there someone that stands out on these two lists 748 00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:10,520 Speaker 2: you want to fight for or against. 749 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 3: I mean, man, there's some players that has some really 750 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:19,720 Speaker 3: really good seasons. It just depends, obviously how the end goes, 751 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:22,840 Speaker 3: if you're gonna if you're gonna put your money on something. 752 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:27,920 Speaker 3: Garrett Cole doing what Scherzer did, what Verlander did at 753 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:30,279 Speaker 3: the end of their career. You rarely see that from 754 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:33,279 Speaker 3: position players. So when I look at position players, when 755 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:35,680 Speaker 3: I look at Yelly, he would have to just be 756 00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:39,879 Speaker 3: elite at you know, even after he's done the done 757 00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:42,400 Speaker 3: his contract with the Brewers, like, he would have to 758 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 3: really continue to put up numbers, and it's so much 759 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:49,480 Speaker 3: tougher for position players. So that's who I would look at. 760 00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:52,360 Speaker 3: I don't think corn Burns is gonna have enough, have 761 00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 3: enough time to do it. To me. The one on 762 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 3: this list, I'm gonna say, Jordan Alvarez. I don't know 763 00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 3: how they're gonna look at Kyle Schwarber. The fact that 764 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:03,720 Speaker 3: you know, if he gets to I think he needs 765 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 3: like thing he needs right at like one hundred and 766 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:10,959 Speaker 3: forty homers, one hundred and twenty I forget how many 767 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:13,440 Speaker 3: to get to five hundred. I think he'll do it. 768 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:16,160 Speaker 3: In his time with the Phillies. In his five year contract, 769 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:18,880 Speaker 3: he's got four more left. But Jordan Alvarez and I 770 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:21,680 Speaker 3: have him higher on the list. I think he he 771 00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 3: wins a triple crown this year he ends up winning 772 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:28,040 Speaker 3: the MVP. I think that puts his numbers more in 773 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 3: the limelight for a lot of people to start looking 774 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 3: at it and go exactly what I talked about, Lindor, 775 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 3: this dude is one of the best hitters in the game. 776 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:39,760 Speaker 3: I get it, the only dhs, But are we gonna 777 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:42,480 Speaker 3: start getting more dhs in the game when you're talking 778 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 3: about a guy who does stuff that is elite nowadays, 779 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:51,720 Speaker 3: a three hundred hitter who puts out thirty five plus 780 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:54,279 Speaker 3: drives in one hundred and twenty. We don't see that now. 781 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 3: We don't see that in the game, And I think 782 00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:59,960 Speaker 3: that gives him the best shot out of that list 783 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 3: to guys that we're talking about here. 784 00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:07,600 Speaker 6: Hey, for the families out there looking for a new 785 00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:09,719 Speaker 6: path to help your child succeed, take a look at 786 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:14,440 Speaker 6: K twelve Powered Schools.

Again, 806 00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 2: it just keeps getting harder and harder because these are 807 00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:18,560 Speaker 2: some names. Right We're gonna start Starter's Corner. Jacob de Grohm. 808 00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:21,279 Speaker 2: He's had great years when he's healthy. He's got the 809 00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:23,959 Speaker 2: Cy Youngs. Not a lot of wins, not a lot 810 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,920 Speaker 2: of bulk, right, Zach Wheeler, to me, we can make 811 00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:29,000 Speaker 2: this argument in Paul Skemes has so much of his 812 00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:32,239 Speaker 2: career left. Yes, Trek Schoolboy is an interesting because he 813 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:34,319 Speaker 2: was hurt, but he's had the great years. Miserowski's too 814 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:37,880 Speaker 2: young to even get into this, right, it's too early. 815 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:38,160 Speaker 1: Right. 816 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:41,279 Speaker 2: But then the closers, Okay, Kenley Jansen should be in, 817 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,080 Speaker 2: Chatman's gonna get in, Kimberll should get in if you 818 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,760 Speaker 2: just look at bulk numbers. But then a rold As Chapman, 819 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:48,480 Speaker 2: if you go with those three e rold As Chapman 820 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 2: should be in because he's had an unbelievable career, and 821 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:53,680 Speaker 2: Edwin Diaz has to do more. For me Catchers, I 822 00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:55,359 Speaker 2: think all three of these guys have to do more 823 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:57,880 Speaker 2: if we just look at bulk numbers and guys that 824 00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:00,279 Speaker 2: have gotten in. When a Buster Posey gets it, although 825 00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:01,799 Speaker 2: his numbers are going to be less, but he has 826 00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:04,359 Speaker 2: the MVP in the World series, right, I think these 827 00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:07,440 Speaker 2: three guys have work to do. Uh Krassy, any thoughts 828 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,440 Speaker 2: on any of these specialized corners about. 829 00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:13,000 Speaker 3: Guys that we get in. We can't put Miseroski in 830 00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:16,880 Speaker 3: this list like, I'm sorry the mis like is that's unfair. 831 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 4: I get it. 832 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 3: It's you know, it's the big name and with schemes, 833 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,080 Speaker 3: too much has to happen yet for us to even 834 00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 3: talk about it. Could he absolutely, But to me, this 835 00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 3: list is contingent on when and if Degram is done 836 00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:38,240 Speaker 3: after this year or next year. Whenever's Wheeler and de Grom. 837 00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:41,920 Speaker 3: They could both blaze a trail for each other. Ironic 838 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 3: they were teammates. And then you're gonna have to compare 839 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:48,920 Speaker 3: their numbers. Wheeler, a guy who never was thought of 840 00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:52,520 Speaker 3: as dominant, never won the cy Young could have won 841 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:55,680 Speaker 3: it three or four times, I think, I think three times. 842 00:38:56,239 --> 00:39:00,320 Speaker 3: But Jacob de Gram has won it. So if de 843 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:03,280 Speaker 3: Gram gets in with the lesser numbers didn't stay healthy, 844 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:06,480 Speaker 3: you would say, man, that dude was dominant when he 845 00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:08,279 Speaker 3: was out on the field. And if he moves the 846 00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:12,400 Speaker 3: goalpost for starters, I think eventually they would look at 847 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 3: the numbers of Zach Wheeler and go, yo, why is 848 00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:19,319 Speaker 3: de Gram in and not Wheeler? Type of thing? 849 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:20,399 Speaker 1: I think the. 850 00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:23,840 Speaker 3: Closer argument and if you could say how many closers 851 00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:26,399 Speaker 3: are in are in the hall of fame right now, 852 00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:30,520 Speaker 3: in my mind, I can only think of three, and 853 00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:34,120 Speaker 3: you're talking about elite of the elite. It's Lee Smith, 854 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 3: Mario Rivera, and Trevor Hoffman. And to say there's three 855 00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:43,760 Speaker 3: from our generation, I think is conceited of our generation. 856 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:47,440 Speaker 3: I think they're elite pitchers, But to say three of 857 00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:51,600 Speaker 3: them just based on history, I have a tough time. 858 00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:54,080 Speaker 3: I know we're in more of a closer's market now, 859 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 3: or closers game. I think they have. You know, we 860 00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:01,640 Speaker 3: had starter that were throwing so many innings, so it 861 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:04,879 Speaker 3: will change, But I don't see how those guys stay out. 862 00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:08,879 Speaker 3: But I also don't see how our generation can get 863 00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:14,239 Speaker 3: three in when the history of baseball had only three. 864 00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:16,719 Speaker 4: I think there was a couple more there with. 865 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:23,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, either way, I'm gonna be real brief here. If 866 00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:26,240 Speaker 5: you could put that screen back up, my computer's acting 867 00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:28,520 Speaker 5: up here for me. 868 00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:33,520 Speaker 4: Chapman's a definite, Kenlee Jansen definite. Everybody else. 869 00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:36,600 Speaker 5: I'm not sure it's the elite of the elite. If 870 00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:38,960 Speaker 5: the Grom gets in, Wheeler's got to get in. My opinion. 871 00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 5: If Wheeler gets into, Grom's gotta get in. These two 872 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:43,840 Speaker 5: were like twins when they played, So that was my 873 00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:47,919 Speaker 5: biggest thing. Skiing school boy Misowski still needs time to go. 874 00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:50,440 Speaker 5: If you're looking at the elite of the elite, the 875 00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:53,880 Speaker 5: three catchers, I don't think so as of right now. 876 00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 5: But yeah, that's my take on those three. 877 00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:01,280 Speaker 1: All right, that's fair. We all have opinions. 878 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:02,960 Speaker 2: And the thing is, closers I think are going to 879 00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:07,160 Speaker 2: start getting in more because people are realizing the value of. 880 00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:08,479 Speaker 1: Closers in today's gain. 881 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:11,920 Speaker 2: Right, So there's no before it wasn't Oh you had 882 00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 2: to be Goose Gossage and you had to be rolly 883 00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:15,880 Speaker 2: fingers and throw three inning saves. People are now realizing 884 00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:17,560 Speaker 2: how special it is to be able to pitch the 885 00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:18,040 Speaker 2: ninth inning. 886 00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:18,959 Speaker 1: And I think that's good. 887 00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:20,480 Speaker 3: So I don't know. 888 00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:22,520 Speaker 2: We can argue about this until the cows come home, 889 00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:24,520 Speaker 2: but instead now we get to argue with Katie wou 890 00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:26,799 Speaker 2: next from Dodgers Territory. I can't wait to hear her 891 00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:29,680 Speaker 2: tell us how good the Dodgers are.

This would be great. I root for 935 00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:46,000 Speaker 5: them to be in the playoffs every year, but it's 936 00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:47,040 Speaker 5: just not the year. 937 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:47,600 Speaker 4: It looks like. 938 00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:50,480 Speaker 1: That's fair, that's fair, that's interested all right. 939 00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:50,680 Speaker 3: Now. 940 00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 2: The other game is the Mariners against the Rangers.

I'm 942 00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:00,480 Speaker 2: not gonna comment on this game because I have to 943 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:00,800 Speaker 2: work it. 944 00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:01,640 Speaker 4: You know. 945 00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:03,680 Speaker 1: That's how That's how they get away with our college 946 00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:04,200 Speaker 1: game day. 947 00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 3: Kirk Curve for you. 948 00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:06,400 Speaker 1: You know, it's the biggest game of the year with 949 00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:08,279 Speaker 1: Kirk you're calling it, so you can't talk about it. 950 00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:08,960 Speaker 1: So crap. 951 00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:12,560 Speaker 2: It is supposed to be WU first, Nasty Nay Deivaldi, 952 00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:15,320 Speaker 2: and then it's the Rangers are actually in first place, 953 00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 2: which at fifty one and fifty one going into tonight, 954 00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:20,680 Speaker 2: they have a four game series. It's gonna be the 955 00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:23,400 Speaker 2: second game of a four game series. What are you 956 00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:26,240 Speaker 2: looking forward to in the Rangers and the Mariners. 957 00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:28,160 Speaker 3: Well, I love the fact that Fox is covering it 958 00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:30,319 Speaker 3: because I know you guys will do a great job. Sorry, 959 00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:32,879 Speaker 3: the music got a little louder, but I know you're 960 00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:36,600 Speaker 3: gonna do a great job covering this pillow fight. Reality 961 00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:40,760 Speaker 3: is we're watching two teams that, in my opinion, should 962 00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:43,360 Speaker 3: be better. I think the Mariners record should be better. 963 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:46,399 Speaker 3: I think they haven't had guys step up where they 964 00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:48,839 Speaker 3: need to. I think they've had guys like you know, 965 00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:53,560 Speaker 3: it's inconceivable that Cal Rowley's doing what he's doing, and 966 00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:57,520 Speaker 3: they were leaning on that offense and he just hasn't 967 00:44:57,520 --> 00:44:59,640 Speaker 3: been able to do it, so maybe he starts capturing 968 00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:04,560 Speaker 3: it in this AO West matchup. But reality, like, let's 969 00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:06,960 Speaker 3: just call a spade a spade. We're one hundred plus 970 00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:10,719 Speaker 3: games into the season. Fox is covering a pillow fight. 971 00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:14,520 Speaker 3: Fortunately both teams are fighting with the same pillows for 972 00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:17,799 Speaker 3: the American League West, and one team could step up 973 00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:24,399 Speaker 3: here and take a quote stranglehold on this division through 974 00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:28,000 Speaker 3: this series. But reality is, it'll probably be a two 975 00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:30,960 Speaker 3: games split. Here'll be two and two, and we'll just 976 00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:34,799 Speaker 3: continue to do unless these teams make the adjustment that 977 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:37,600 Speaker 3: I'm not even sure exactly which team needs to make 978 00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:39,000 Speaker 3: what adjustments. 979 00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:39,960 Speaker 1: True. 980 00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:42,279 Speaker 2: True, And by the way, every time I do a 981 00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 2: Mariner's game, I want to call them the semen, and 982 00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:46,280 Speaker 2: I just get shot down by my Fox bosses. 983 00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:48,600 Speaker 1: I don't know why because Hawlck Carroll said that. 984 00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:53,160 Speaker 2: Because Hawk Harrelson once said when the Mariners were playing 985 00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:56,839 Speaker 2: the White Sox, the sacks are packed with semen, and he. 986 00:45:56,800 --> 00:45:57,520 Speaker 3: Got in trouble. 987 00:45:57,560 --> 00:45:59,120 Speaker 2: So I don't know why they won't allow me to 988 00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:00,839 Speaker 2: say that line, but thought it was a great line 989 00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:01,319 Speaker 2: from Hawk. 990 00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:03,680 Speaker 3: Now you got it out here, now you got it 991 00:46:03,719 --> 00:46:06,840 Speaker 3: out here Todd was on New Jersey. People hear it 992 00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:08,799 Speaker 3: and they'll be like, yo, I kind of like that 993 00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:10,520 Speaker 3: a j prosis. Yet I didn't like him when he 994 00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:12,879 Speaker 3: was a player, but yo, I kind of like him now. 995 00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:16,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, the bag was he when you say the sacks 996 00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:18,560 Speaker 2: are full of seamen or the sacks are packed with seemen. 997 00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:18,840 Speaker 4: It was. 998 00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:21,359 Speaker 1: He got in trouble for that one. But it's Hawk. 999 00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:23,239 Speaker 1: He could do Todd. You're around Hawk, you know he 1000 00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:26,560 Speaker 1: could get away with whatever he wanted. So it was great, 1001 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:27,120 Speaker 1: great line. 1002 00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:28,840 Speaker 2: I've asked every time I do a Mariners game, I 1003 00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:31,040 Speaker 2: get shot down, So I gotta be careful with that one. 1004 00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:33,840 Speaker 2: But anyways, tune in on Saturday Fox one.

I mean, Todd, 1016 00:47:12,880 --> 00:47:15,719 Speaker 2: I won't even make these zero guesses to figure it out. 1017 00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:20,880 Speaker 5: Plus here, yeah, I'm yeah, it has to be l 1018 00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:21,600 Speaker 5: Brew Crew. 1019 00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:22,720 Speaker 4: Go ahead, Cratzy. 1020 00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:25,040 Speaker 3: Well, actually, I'm not gonna turn it around because I 1021 00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:28,680 Speaker 3: sent the picture. I think Claude should have the picture. 1022 00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:31,799 Speaker 3: If she has it, Uh, that would be the hat 1023 00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:34,160 Speaker 3: that Yeah, so we'll go ahead and show the picture 1024 00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:36,920 Speaker 3: of the hat that Shaugar sent to me because I 1025 00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:39,000 Speaker 3: talked trash about him one time on the show. So 1026 00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:40,960 Speaker 3: this is the hat that he said I was supposed 1027 00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:45,920 Speaker 3: to wear for the show because he said I got 1028 00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:48,560 Speaker 3: a bucket. I got a buck ahead, so it was 1029 00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:51,200 Speaker 3: the only one that was gonna fit. So yeah, of 1030 00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:55,239 Speaker 3: course that looks normal. How could I not wear? How 1031 00:47:55,239 --> 00:47:59,000 Speaker 3: could I not wear the Brew Crew hat. I'm on 1032 00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:04,000 Speaker 3: team whist Oats for the Legends game, so maybe I'll 1033 00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:08,520 Speaker 3: get the the Wisco hat. I'm not even sure. I 1034 00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:10,480 Speaker 3: don't know that I one hundred percent agree with the 1035 00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:13,440 Speaker 3: Wisco name. Nobody really calls it Wisco. They said some 1036 00:48:14,320 --> 00:48:18,960 Speaker 3: outsiders that weren't even from Wisconsin call it Whisco. So 1037 00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:23,319 Speaker 3: either way, the park is starting to fill up. I'm 1038 00:48:23,320 --> 00:48:27,839 Speaker 3: watching the Rockies take BP and I'm definitely going the 1039 00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:32,080 Speaker 3: under on home runs. It's set ato point five, the 1040 00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:35,240 Speaker 3: ball's not traveling, the roof's open. Something's gonna have to change. 1041 00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:38,719 Speaker 3: But legends game, I'm taking the under old amount of 1042 00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:39,879 Speaker 3: home runs for the whole game. 1043 00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:41,240 Speaker 1: Crads. 1044 00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:43,319 Speaker 2: Before we let you go, Todd, I got to ask 1045 00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:46,880 Speaker 2: Kratzis there's two things. First of all, did Schager come 1046 00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:48,880 Speaker 2: up to you and say do you know who I am? 1047 00:48:48,920 --> 00:48:50,520 Speaker 2: Because he did that to me at the winter meetings 1048 00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:51,880 Speaker 2: and I'm like, yes, I know who you are, so 1049 00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:53,480 Speaker 2: don't have her ask me that again. He does it 1050 00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:55,480 Speaker 2: every time he sees me. Now he comes he's an 1051 00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:56,200 Speaker 2: equipment guy. 1052 00:48:56,040 --> 00:48:56,439 Speaker 1: For the Brudge. 1053 00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:57,799 Speaker 2: He's like, do you know who I am? I'm like, yes, 1054 00:48:57,840 --> 00:48:59,360 Speaker 2: I know who you are, so stop bothering me. 1055 00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:00,000 Speaker 3: You're weird. 1056 00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:04,040 Speaker 1: And then, second of all, Krats, can you get Vasalo 1057 00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:08,160 Speaker 1: or somebody in the Brewers organization to let you slide 1058 00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:11,160 Speaker 1: down the slide and run in the sausage race. 1059 00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:17,640 Speaker 3: Well, I don't want to run in the sausage race. Yes, so, 1060 00:49:18,040 --> 00:49:20,719 Speaker 3: because the last time foul territory was allowed on the 1061 00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:24,680 Speaker 3: sausage race, you cheated and he brought disgrace to the 1062 00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:29,480 Speaker 3: sausage race and disgrace to the foul territory network. The slide. 1063 00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:32,440 Speaker 3: I'm telling you, like, there's some things that are in 1064 00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:36,200 Speaker 3: Milwaukee here that are great experiences. Sliding down the slide 1065 00:49:36,880 --> 00:49:41,040 Speaker 3: was intimidating and so much fun. But it's also like 1066 00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:44,200 Speaker 3: getting into Fort Knox like to be allowed to do 1067 00:49:44,320 --> 00:49:46,720 Speaker 3: it. It might be easier now that I'm not a player. 1068 00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:50,319 Speaker 3: I almost broke my ankle sliding all the way through. 1069 00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:52,400 Speaker 3: It's a short landing spot and I hit the wall. 1070 00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:54,440 Speaker 3: So I don't think I can do it, but I 1071 00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:57,120 Speaker 3: will definitely ask somebody. But during the game, that's like 1072 00:49:57,200 --> 00:49:59,480 Speaker 3: sacred ground. You can't. You can't just go up there. 1073 00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:01,879 Speaker 2: Got during the game, after the game, before the game, 1074 00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:03,640 Speaker 2: if you hit a home run in the alumni game, 1075 00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:05,879 Speaker 2: when you're in second base, you should just run right 1076 00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:08,480 Speaker 2: out there and climb up to Bernie Chalet and slide 1077 00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:11,879 Speaker 2: down by yourself. But we cannot wait. We cannot wait 1078 00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:14,840 Speaker 2: to hear about this. Next week, Scott's back sadly to 1079 00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:17,160 Speaker 2: say no more players only show Scott's gonna tell us 1080 00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:19,760 Speaker 2: about his tanning and his music listening. 1081 00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:21,960 Speaker 1: We'll see everybody next week.
