The Dodgers gets you an early birthday present 23 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 3: in Game three, perhaps a good birthday present in Game four. 24 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:11,480 Speaker 3: We're going to be joined by James Sheiano of Mets 25 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 3: Up Podcast. We're going to be doing a little bit 26 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 3: of a crossover today talking Mets, talking Dodgers. But before 27 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 3: we welcome in James, let's get to the big ticket. 28 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 4: Let's do it. 29 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:25,560 Speaker 3: All right. A pivotal Game three, the Dodgers taking a 30 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 3: two to one lead thanks to a variety of factors. 31 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 3: Let's start with that day's starting pitcher, and that was 32 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 3: Walker fn Buehler, Clint four innings of shutout baseball. He shoved, 33 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 3: He had the moxie, he had the confidence, and he 34 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 3: had the stuff. What's your biggest impression of his outing 35 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 3: last night? 36 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 4: I mean Walker Buehler. I said it on my stream 37 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 4: last night. He rewarded the faithful, the people that retained 38 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 4: faith in him throughout a very very tough season. Uh, 39 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 4: he had it. Yeah, you know what this is. This 40 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 4: isn't you know, old school baseball. He's not going out 41 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 4: there shoving for for ten innings or seven innings or 42 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:11,119 Speaker 4: even five. He gave you four extremely strong innings, kept 43 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 4: your team in the game, which is what you need, 44 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 4: what you need out of this situation in a cold 45 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 4: New York city, in a hostile environment, maybe not as 46 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 4: hostile as San Diego, but you can't ask for much 47 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 4: more from Walker Buehler. There, you know, the tenacity, the 48 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 4: stuff he talked about, how much his stuff was moving 49 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 4: in there. He looked filthy, and he set the tone, 50 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:35,959 Speaker 4: which you needed to do. In Game three. You would 51 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 4: ask me on our Game two postgame show, you had 52 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 4: ask was this a must win? I was kind of 53 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 4: indifferent on it at the time, but yeah, no, it 54 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 4: proved to be a must win and the Dodgers won. 55 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 3: Well, I tell you what he did say that he 56 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 3: loved pitching in the cold weather. He mentioned the weather, 57 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 3: he mentioned the win, he mentioned the movement. And under 58 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 3: this current two three two format, Clint teams breaking a 59 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 3: one to one tie by winning Game three on the 60 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 3: road go on to win it seventy five percent of 61 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 3: the time. So I'm loving that stat. I mean, Buehler 62 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 3: had traffic, but he put up zeros when he needed 63 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 3: to put up zeros. He struck out Francisco Lindor with 64 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:13,799 Speaker 3: the curveball. Again. Let's talk about that before you would 65 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 3: have seen a lot of fastballs from Uto, right, but 66 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 3: he has adjusted and grown as a pitcher and realized 67 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 3: maybe the fastball is not his outpitch anymore. And he's 68 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,079 Speaker 3: adjusted and it was rewarded. 69 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, I love the what am I looking for here? 70 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 4: The honesty from Walker Buehler there, like he's not that 71 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 4: guy anymore. And it took him the better part of 72 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 4: the twenty twenty four season, you know, his little brief 73 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 4: time away from the team on his sabbatical or whatever 74 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 4: it is, trying to relearn how to pitch or learn 75 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 4: how to pitch with the stuff he had. But it 76 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 4: took him all of that time. We went through all 77 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 4: of these months with him piecing together who he is today. 78 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 4: And we saw the culmination of that in Game three. 79 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 4: And you know, don't forget before that Alvarez was on 80 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 4: base with or up to plate, bases loaded, one out, 81 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 4: gets that k or the pop up or whatever it was, 82 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 4: gets that out. And then to get Lindor, you know, 83 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 4: one of the best players in baseball, one of the 84 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 4: best players out here during you know, this postseason, to 85 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 4: get him there on not his bread and butter. It 86 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:22,160 Speaker 4: was impressive stuff. And and credit to Will Smith. If 87 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 4: he's not hitting, at least he's putting down the right fingers, 88 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 4: as Dave has given him credit. Walker gave Will Smith 89 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 4: a ton of credit as well. And yeah, I just 90 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 4: love seeing what we're seeing out of Walker Buehler, who 91 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 4: could be in line to start a Game seven, or 92 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 4: maybe a Game one of a World series. 93 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 3: Maybe maybe maybe maybe it doesn't even have to go 94 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 3: to Game seven. We can hope and dream. Let's give 95 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 3: flowers to Key ky Hernandez. I've been shouting this from 96 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 3: the rooftops for anybody that is willing to listen to me, 97 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 3: that Keith kay Hernandez, no disrespect to Reggie Jackson, no 98 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 3: disrespect to stars in the past. Key k Hernandez is 99 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 3: mister October for the Los Angeles Dodgers. He now has 100 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:03,840 Speaker 3: the fourth highest ops in post season history. I have 101 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 3: to say that that's a massive deal. Kik just is 102 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 3: a different dude when the calendar turns to October. 103 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 4: Key k Hernandez, you know, people who watch this show 104 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 4: this year watch me this year. They know I have 105 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 4: an interesting relationship with with Gavin Lux and all of 106 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 4: the stuff that you know, the years of Gavin Lucks 107 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 4: and kind of you know, maybe his his his character 108 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 4: or whatever it may be, not not character, but he 109 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:38,040 Speaker 4: he plays a character sometimes you know injury, sometimes didn't 110 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 4: didn't show up when you needed him, but you know, 111 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 4: you stick with him and he'll he'll reward you. It's 112 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 4: kind of what I'm getting to here with with with 113 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 4: with Key k Hernandez, it's every bit of a reward. Uh. 114 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 4: The what you're seeing out of Kik. One of the 115 00:05:56,200 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 4: best players ever in in postseason history. His name is 116 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 4: scattered all over the Dodgers postseason record books. He just 117 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 4: steps up when this team needs him the most, when 118 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 4: the lights of the brightest, when the crowd is the 119 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,719 Speaker 4: angriest or the happiest. K gives you what the f 120 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 4: you need and a little hip thrust while you're at it. 121 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 3: But it's not just the Dodgers record books that he 122 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 3: wants to set on there. Listen, I told you I 123 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 3: don't care if Keik doesn't get a hit in the 124 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 3: regular season, keep him on the roster for postseason. I 125 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 3: honestly like everyone's like, well, why can't he transform that 126 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 3: into the regular season. I don't need it. The Dodgers 127 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,840 Speaker 3: are always going to get into the postseason. We're fortunate 128 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 3: enough to have a team that is that good. We're 129 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,279 Speaker 3: fortunate enough to have a front office that will always 130 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 3: put a winning product on the field, so I don't 131 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 3: worry about them getting into the postseason. Keik needs to 132 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,279 Speaker 3: be on the postseason roster. It's not about what you 133 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 3: do in the regular season. For him, there's just you know, 134 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 3: there's different like Nick Costaiano, so the Philadelphia Phillies, Like 135 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 3: he's even said like games like this is what I 136 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 3: get up for, Like it's hard to get up for 137 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 3: a game in Cincinnati on a Tuesday in May. 138 00:06:57,960 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 2: Okay. 139 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 3: I understand that they all count this, but it's just 140 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 3: a different time of year. And it's not just the Dodgers' 141 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,119 Speaker 3: history record books that he's in. It's it's just the game. 142 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 3: You have a conversation with Ken Rosenthal, who had an 143 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 3: article that he wrote today and I had a conversation 144 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 3: with him on Fair Territory today that he's kind of 145 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 3: comparing key k Hernandez to the right handed David Ortiz. 146 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 3: I'm not saying that Key k is a Hall of 147 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 3: Famer and either as Ken, but the point is what 148 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 3: he does in the postseason is very big poppy like 149 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 3: as far as the numbers are concerned, same thing with 150 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 3: Aaron Judge Clint. He has identical plate appearances two hundred 151 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 3: and twenty four plate appearances in the postseason, so does Judge. 152 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 3: Key K's numbers favorite Keik in terms of home run, 153 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 3: RBI and ops in the postseason better than Judge, and 154 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 3: Judge is probably going to be a Hall of Famer 155 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 3: because of his whole body of work. So good for 156 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 3: key K, Hernandez. We're gonna be joined in just a 157 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 3: moment by James Shechiano of the Metsed Up podcast. That 158 00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 3: is very hard for me to say. I keep wanting 159 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 3: to say messed up. It's messed up podcast. Before we 160 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 3: get to James, though, let's give some flowers to Max 161 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 3: Munsey clint eight straight plate appearances he's gotten on base. 162 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 4: Max has been really, really fun to watch in this series. 163 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 4: In particular, he identified he was getting really long with 164 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 4: the swing, getting big, letting, trying to force moments, and 165 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 4: what he said after Game one, where let's be honest, 166 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 4: after that Game one, he had the two run single 167 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 4: in the first inning, just kept it short. Found some 168 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 4: grass that's not that's not keik a or sorry, that's 169 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 4: not the Max we've seen in recent vintage. He's he's 170 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:40,679 Speaker 4: selling out. He wants the bomba out there. He is 171 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 4: just trying to keep it short, keep it simple, and 172 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 4: let the game come to him. And if you have 173 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 4: that version of Max, while you know Taoscar Hernandez is 174 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 4: kind of a little bit, you know, on the schneid 175 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 4: at the moment, you're not going to have everybody clicking 176 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:54,839 Speaker 4: on all cylinders. But if you have more of those guys, 177 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 4: four or five of those guys doing something special and 178 00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:00,680 Speaker 4: Max along with with you know, tom Me Edmund, what 179 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:03,199 Speaker 4: he's done. How good of a pickup is Tommy Edmond? 180 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 4: By the way, all of those things equal the type 181 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 4: of run production, the type of series we've seen so 182 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 4: far from the Dodgers, where yeah, the Mets were very 183 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 4: very good in Game two, but you know, I said 184 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 4: after Game one this this Dodgers team might just be 185 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 4: too much for the Mets. And we'll get some more 186 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 4: Mets thoughts here as we welcome in James Shechiano of 187 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 4: that Mets Up podcast, and I believe everybody can hear him, 188 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 4: and we're gonna feel good.

Caught the last five minutes. 191 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 2: A very happy Dodger world right now. 192 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 3: Huh yeah, James, it's great to be with you, and 193 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 3: congratulations on the Mets Up podcast joining the Foul Territory family. 194 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,079 Speaker 3: We are so very happy that you guys are here. 195 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 3: It's great to have you with us. I tell you what, 196 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 3: if there's one thing I've learned about the Mets this season, 197 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 3: and this is a team, James, that if they get punched, 198 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 3: they get up and they get you know, they punch 199 00:09:55,640 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 3: right back. What is the level of concern? Panic? No 200 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 3: concern for your met fan base right now and your estimation. 201 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:05,720 Speaker 2: Definitely not a panic. 202 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:07,559 Speaker 1: I think there is some ample concern, and most of 203 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 1: that it certain has to come from the production of 204 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,840 Speaker 1: this Mets lineup right now, especially the lack thereof from the. 205 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:13,680 Speaker 2: Bottom of the order. 206 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 1: In the last week or so of games, since Game 207 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 1: four against the Phillies, very dramatic win for the Mets, 208 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,439 Speaker 1: we've scored eleven total runs. Eight of those eleven runs 209 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 1: have come via two Grand slams. And that's just not 210 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 1: sustainable offense gonna be able to carry you through a 211 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 1: seven game playoff series against a team like the Dodgers. 212 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: So the concern would right now just be the fact 213 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: that someone has to step up besides Lindor Vietos Solonso 214 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,080 Speaker 1: right now if this team really wants. 215 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 2: To get through this little skid. 216 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 1: But again, like you said, like all this team does 217 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 1: get punched in the face and get backs up and 218 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 1: throws a CounterPunch, and you could feel almost, I don't 219 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 1: even know how to describe it, like a frustrating positivity 220 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 1: from this team and their media availability both after the 221 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 1: game today and so far this morning, where you're like, yeah, guys, 222 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: we know, like we're ready to go, Like I just 223 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: want to see you go. And it was so hard 224 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 1: to be at that game last night. I was there 225 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: in all glory just to see that little rallue you 226 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: guys had early the Mets almost respond to the bottom 227 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: of that second inning and then the whole crowd getting 228 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 1: sucked right out and never having a moment to kind 229 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 1: of jump back in and find a find a place, 230 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 1: find a spot to get some momentum back on our side. 231 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean that that strikeout that's going to strikeout, 232 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 4: that Walker Buehler gets a month ago two months ago, 233 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 4: and we know how impressive, how important Francisco Lindor has 234 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 4: been to this team. He was a catalyst in game 235 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 4: two and and we're seeing, you know, we're seeing the 236 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 4: stars show up in this in this series so far, 237 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 4: if the stars kind of go, that team seems to win. 238 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 4: Lindor was the guy who put the team on the 239 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:41,840 Speaker 4: on you know, the emotionally put the team on his back. 240 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 4: In game two, is everything kind of running through you know, 241 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 4: when you're talking about the Mets clubhouse, all of the 242 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 4: vibes there is it running through Lindor. And if he 243 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 4: doesn't go, they don't go. 244 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: I think emotionally I agree with you, he's running through Lindor, 245 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,079 Speaker 1: But it's more than about if he doesn't go, they 246 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 1: don't go. He he had the biggest opportunity to make 247 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:03,959 Speaker 1: things go in that game too, where after getting smacked 248 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,199 Speaker 1: around in Game one, he steps up first batter of 249 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: the game, has a seven pitch up bad against Ryan Brazier, 250 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: bang home run right field seats and there was like 251 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 1: an exhale, like Okay, we're here, we belong here, like 252 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,679 Speaker 1: we can gather ourselves again in the spot because before 253 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 1: game one of this Dodger series. 254 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 2: This Mets team didn't have a chance to breathe in 255 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 2: what felt like a month, like. 256 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,559 Speaker 1: They only had I think it was two total off 257 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 1: days since that faithful double Heather against the Braves until 258 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,319 Speaker 1: that Game one against the Dodgers before the off days 259 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,319 Speaker 1: we had in between games four the Philly in Game one. 260 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 1: So a lot of it comes out to him, but 261 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 1: there's also added pressure on Lindor and also Viento's right 262 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:37,079 Speaker 1: now because the player he's becomes, because again the bomb 263 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 1: of this order has given nothing. J D Martinez for 264 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: about two months now has been swinging an absolute pool 265 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 1: loodle out there, and Carlsonoz keeps going back to Jose 266 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,319 Speaker 1: Galazias as amazing as he's been this year. The cold 267 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:49,319 Speaker 1: streak that all Mets fans have been dreading from m 268 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 1: Gali like a Galazias has come with the worst possible time. 269 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 1: Jeff McNeil just came back from injury and it's kind 270 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 1: of unclear how much he's able to give based in 271 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 1: the fact he hasn't started the game yet, and Francisco 272 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: Alvarez to strike out that preluded the Francisco Lindor strikeout 273 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 1: for walka Vilaka at second inning, He's taking some of 274 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 1: the worst at bats I've ever seen him take in 275 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:07,839 Speaker 1: his entire young career. 276 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:09,559 Speaker 2: So just that combination of. 277 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 1: Once you guys get through the top five of this oiler, 278 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 1: they're not really being much chance for anything to happen, 279 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,160 Speaker 1: especially with Jesse Winker not in the lineup. That's where 280 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 1: a lot more pressure I think it's put on Francisco 281 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,959 Speaker 1: indoor shoulders together a two out hit with the basis loaded, 282 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 1: when all Francisco Oivers needs. 283 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 2: To do is say the fly ball, you could feel 284 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 2: a lot better about this game. 285 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 3: Early on last night, we're talking with James Ciano of 286 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 3: the Mets Up podcast here on Dodgers' territory obviously Game 287 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 3: four of the NLCS tonight at City Field, and if 288 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 3: shohe Otani James was not having the regular season that 289 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 3: he had, Francisco Lindor would be the National League MVP. 290 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:45,080 Speaker 3: I don't think anybody can can argue that. But the 291 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 3: fact that Francisco was snubbed from an All Star appearance 292 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:53,840 Speaker 3: and a Gold Glove finalist, something is wrong with that picture. 293 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 3: In my estimation, Juan Soto has no business being a 294 00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 3: finalist for the Gold Glove and Francisco Lindor should have 295 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 3: been what. 296 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 1: Gibbs, There's no real explanation for that by any defensive 297 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:06,079 Speaker 1: metric you look at if you wanted to go in 298 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 1: OAA on Baseball's van, if you want to look at 299 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 1: drs and defensive run value on fangrass, if you even 300 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 1: want to just use your eye tests and watch these 301 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 1: games day and day out. Franciscool Indoor is one of, 302 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 1: if not one of the best shortstops, best defensive players 303 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:18,719 Speaker 1: in all of baseball. So for him to get a 304 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 1: snubbed for this award for the fourth straight year that 305 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 1: he's been a Met not make an All Star team 306 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 1: still as a Met, it doesn't really make any sense. 307 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 1: I understand the All Star thing a little bit because 308 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 1: his April and half of May were very bad and 309 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 1: it kind of turned some Mets fans off for getting 310 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 1: out stuffing a ballot box and voting him into the game. 311 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball a chance to give him a spot, 312 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 1: but they gave it to Pee Alonso instead. People say 313 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 1: because of some home run derby stuff. Whatever you may 314 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 1: see there. The goal Glove is voted on by coaches 315 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 1: and managers. I don't understand how other coaches can watch 316 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 1: for sis school indoor play shortstop and not think he's 317 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 1: one of the three best in the league. So maybe 318 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: that's a little bit extra motivation. But again, I think 319 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 1: he's so laser focused on getting his team where they 320 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: need to be that is not going to deffect him. 321 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 1: The irony is the sixth twisted irony from a Mets perspective, 322 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 1: is our only goal old Glove nominee was Luis Everno 323 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 1: and your guys. First two runs of the game came 324 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 1: on balls that bounced off of his hands and call 325 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 1: New York type. So watching that game with my dad, 326 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 1: he's like mothering to himself, Oh there's a gold Glove candidate. 327 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 2: Huh, there's a gold glove guy. 328 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 3: Huh. 329 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 2: And I'm like, yeah, that's what they said. 330 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 1: I don't know what to tell you right now, but 331 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 1: that was just a little twist of the knife during 332 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 1: the game last night for the goal glove. 333 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 3: I think watching a Met fan with or watching a 334 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 3: Met game postseason game with a Met fan would be 335 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 3: an absolute blast just to like listen to you guys 336 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 3: talk before I let Clint ask you a question. I 337 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 3: just wanted to follow up on the situation with the 338 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 3: gold glove, because it is it's a manager in six 339 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 3: coaches is seventy five percent of the vote, and then 340 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 3: the other twenty five percent is like a defensive metric cocktail. Well, 341 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 3: let me tell you something. That cocktail is broken if 342 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 3: Francisco Lindor doesn't get a gold glove. All right, Clint, 343 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 3: go ahead, my. 344 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 4: Friend, and Wan Soto is getting nominated. Let's let's throw 345 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 4: that out there for fun. Sorry New York fans or 346 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 4: Yankees fans, and also sorry Derek Lewandowski. But let's let's 347 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 4: look more at this series important bounce back game for 348 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 4: your Mets tonight. What's kind of the pulse you're you're 349 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 4: seeing there? You said it was sort of down trodden 350 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 4: there in in you know, post game, I'm assuming you know, 351 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 4: pregame scrub not the happiest as well. What's gonna take 352 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 4: to get these boys back out, your boys back on track. 353 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 2: It's gonna take a big ever from the offense. 354 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 1: We're gonna go up against Yamamodo, who I think objectively, 355 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 1: I'm not sure are you guys view, but I think 356 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 1: in a pure vacuum he might be your most talented 357 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 1: starting pitcher and maybe not the guy pitching the best 358 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 1: because of what we just saw Flair the and Walker 359 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 1: Biela do. 360 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 2: These two of these first three games. 361 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 1: But this is someone that the Mets have seen once 362 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 1: this year and hit him really well, and they saw 363 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:36,600 Speaker 1: him that was a long time ago, though in a 364 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 1: lifetime ago for the Mets to and the Dodgers especially, 365 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 1: So it's just really about getting to him and scoring 366 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 1: some runs. Like I think the Mets pitching has been 367 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 1: good enough in a few of these games to win. 368 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 1: The Corley sang a thin game one that was bizarre. 369 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: We know what's gonna happen, but ye Kosekintana, I have 370 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 1: no choice but to trust him. He's been our best. 371 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 2: Big game pitcher through this postseason. 372 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 1: Twice our season has been in the line with Hose 373 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 1: and Tana on the mound, and both times Guitar has 374 00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 1: come through in the clutch for us. So I have 375 00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 1: no choice but to go blindly back into that fire 376 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 1: with him. It's about the top of this orders being 377 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: able to start something with bottom of the other being 378 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:06,919 Speaker 1: able to finish it. I am a little bit concerned 379 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:09,280 Speaker 1: about some of the language carls from Doz and some 380 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 1: Mets people have been using today really really zeroing in 381 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 1: on what they're calling reverse splits for Yamamoto, just because 382 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:16,879 Speaker 1: he has that great splitter and that great curveball. But 383 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:20,960 Speaker 1: I think the reverse split might wrongfully be superseding the 384 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 1: fact that there could be better hitters on the Mets 385 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,160 Speaker 1: bench and Jesse Winker and possibly Jeff McNeil than someone 386 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:27,919 Speaker 1: in JD Martinez who looks like he's going to get 387 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:29,120 Speaker 1: another shot where he's hit. 388 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:31,440 Speaker 2: He has one extra base hit in his last twenty 389 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 2: games played. I just don't know. 390 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 1: Where that that oof is coming from from JD right now. 391 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 4: One last thing to add on Yama Moto. We did 392 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,719 Speaker 4: see his best start as a big leaguer happen in 393 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 4: New York against the Mets. Walker Bueler last night talked 394 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,159 Speaker 4: about the movement on his pitches being so much different 395 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 4: there at City Field. That's what you got, that nasty 396 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,880 Speaker 4: version of him. Maybe Yamamoto the same thing. That splitter 397 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,959 Speaker 4: could be nasty, and I'm sure Dodgers fans are really 398 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 4: hoping for that version of Yama tonight. But a lot 399 00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:57,879 Speaker 4: of go ahead. 400 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 3: No, I think that's what I needed, That's what I 401 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 3: needed to see. I needed to see. I need to 402 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 3: see Yamamoto pitch against the Mets like we saw him 403 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:07,399 Speaker 3: pitch against the Yankees at the Bronx. If you if 404 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 3: you can get that type of outing, then that's that's impressive. 405 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 3: All right. Let me ask you your opinion, James on this. 406 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 3: A lot of folks were questioning why Carlos Mendoza elected 407 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 3: to go with Severino instead of Quintana in Game three. 408 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 3: Your whole thought process of the order of this, I 409 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:27,199 Speaker 3: am with you. I think Kintana is your best starting pitcher. 410 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 3: Just the thought process of the order in the NLCS 411 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 3: for your starting staff. 412 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:34,920 Speaker 1: I think it's it's similar to what I was saying 413 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 1: about Yamolo compared to the Dodger staff in a vacuum. 414 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 1: Based on the body of work Severino's put in this year, 415 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,160 Speaker 1: the fact that he can gass you up to ninety 416 00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 1: seven ninety eight ninety nine miles an hour, and his 417 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 1: stuff did look good last night too, just still has 418 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:47,160 Speaker 1: been able to find that exact put the way pitch. 419 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:50,400 Speaker 1: I think that they've been keeping this exact same structure 420 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 1: of this rotation through all through playoff series. I think 421 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:55,160 Speaker 1: there was something to Carls Mendoz and the Mets wanting 422 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 1: to keep the same guys that did limit possible if 423 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 1: we were ever to get there. Hose a Katana in 424 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,399 Speaker 1: a game seven, more so than a relief role. But 425 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:05,479 Speaker 1: there's almost like this idea of dance with the one 426 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,120 Speaker 1: that brung you and several Reno has been a guy 427 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 1: who threw this entire season has been started after start, 428 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 1: more reliable than Cantana. 429 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:13,640 Speaker 2: Maybe that bites us in the butt. 430 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 1: Maybe we see how that actually lines up tonight because 431 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 1: Evrino again he pitched well enough to give his team 432 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,440 Speaker 1: a chance to win that game yesterday, and Walker Buele 433 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:21,639 Speaker 1: was a little bit better. But at the end of 434 00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 1: the day, if there was nowhere in runs on either 435 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 1: side and the arras were sever Renos and Saverinos alone, 436 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 1: so there was still a chance for him to have 437 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:31,119 Speaker 1: match four or five shutout frames and Walker vueler if 438 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 1: they had to. But it's I trust, I go. I'm 439 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:37,640 Speaker 1: having this this battle in my mind right now where 440 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:39,680 Speaker 1: I don't want to doubt anything Carlsmondoz is doing or 441 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 1: any decisions he's making, because his hand has been so 442 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 1: hot this whole postseason has always been on the pulse, 443 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 1: But the. 444 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 2: Continued loyalty the JD. 445 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:50,880 Speaker 1: Martinez is something that I still can't really find any 446 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 1: shread of logic to wrap my mind around, something I 447 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:55,200 Speaker 1: really hope doesn't doesn't do this team inn tonight. 448 00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:58,239 Speaker 4: Hey, the last time the Dodgers gave up on their 449 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:00,680 Speaker 4: loyalty to JD. Martinez, they went out. I got show. Hey, 450 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:05,640 Speaker 4: so maybe that offseason wait, maybe for the Mets, I'll 451 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 4: go somewhat morbid, somewhat I'm assuming where Mets Mets fans 452 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 4: do not want to go yet. But the reality is 453 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:17,720 Speaker 4: two wins away, sorry, two losses away from a you know, 454 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:21,399 Speaker 4: defeat of a season, but still got a lot further 455 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 4: than you anticipated, especially after last year the fire sale. 456 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 4: Every piece must go. When you're looking at yours or 457 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,920 Speaker 4: you're looking at Verlander? Is there? Can you still hang 458 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 4: your hat on this season as a Mets fan knowing 459 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 4: like you got a lot further and not to say 460 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 4: I said it after Game one, I'll say it after 461 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 4: Game two, and I'll probably say it after tonight. Mets, 462 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 4: very very good ball club. They got some good pieces there, 463 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:47,400 Speaker 4: some good vibes, But did did this kind of happen sooner? 464 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:49,880 Speaker 4: Getting here? Happened sooner than anticipated. 465 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:52,600 Speaker 1: Luckily for us, the season still going on. We can 466 00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 1: win three games and get get back to the World Series. 467 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: But I'm taking any translation right here, but I think 468 00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 1: that there is this weird dicholomy happening at least for 469 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,719 Speaker 1: me and probably the Mets fans right now. Where sure, 470 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 1: this is a season where we exceeded expectations. We kind 471 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:06,359 Speaker 1: of went to the season hoping to hang around five hundred, 472 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 1: see if we can seek in the plaoffs and make 473 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 1: some noise. 474 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 2: We did that. 475 00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 1: We wound up almost winning ninety games. We did sneak 476 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:12,920 Speaker 1: in the playoffs, and now we have fully made some noise. 477 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:16,120 Speaker 1: But that becomes an issue where, let's say, the rest 478 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:17,879 Speaker 1: of the weekends doesn't go the way I hope. I 479 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 1: don't think you'll ever get me to say that this 480 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 1: season was this incredible triumph. At least next week or 481 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:24,679 Speaker 1: even the week after that. Maybe if I take a 482 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 1: deep breath when the Winter meetings roll around November, I'll 483 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 1: be like, Okay, you know what, that whole thing together 484 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 1: was great, But I have taste of the forbidden fruit. 485 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:31,680 Speaker 2: I like how it tastes. 486 00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:33,639 Speaker 1: The juicies are dripping down You're dripping down my gin 487 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:35,400 Speaker 1: right now, and I would really like to keep this going, 488 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:38,320 Speaker 1: keep alive on this, especially when the other two teams 489 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 1: I could win a World Series, the Dodgers the Yankees, 490 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 1: two teams that not only me, but probably a lot 491 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 1: of my fellow baseball fans do not want to see 492 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:45,159 Speaker 1: Hoyst that trophy at the end of the year. If 493 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 1: we could be the ones that stop it, that makes 494 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 1: this whole thing that much sweeter. But to get to 495 00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 1: the final four and say that it's a season is 496 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 1: a success. When you get that close to the end. 497 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 1: It's hard right now, and again it's not over yet, 498 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 1: but that's something that we would have to reflect on later. 499 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:02,439 Speaker 3: On games. How much value do you put or how 500 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:04,160 Speaker 3: much stock do you put in the fact that your 501 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 3: Mets have not lost consecutive games at any point so 502 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 3: far in the postseason, And they also haven't lost consecutive 503 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:13,880 Speaker 3: games at City Field since July thirty first, and then 504 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 3: again August August thirteenth. So this is a team that 505 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 3: they may lose, but they don't lose a lot in 506 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:19,960 Speaker 3: a row. 507 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 1: Luckily for me, I was waiting for to bring it 508 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 1: up because I don't want to be the one that 509 00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 1: said that I don't want to bring that up. I 510 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:26,160 Speaker 1: don't want to put any of this bad ju jun 511 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 1: into the world. And Mets fans, I think, more so 512 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 1: than any fan base maybe in sports, are exceedingly superstitious. 513 00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:35,680 Speaker 1: Unlike Michael Scotts staying a little superstitious, we're super superstitious stitious. 514 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 1: But it's possible, like this team has such a resiliency 515 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 1: to them. They do not quit, they do not die. 516 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,159 Speaker 1: And I know I'm giving a lot of shame right 517 00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 1: now to bombas Order, but there's so many guys in 518 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:46,920 Speaker 1: this team that found a way to be clutch when 519 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:49,119 Speaker 1: they had to and going got tough. There were the 520 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 1: CounterPunch that we got in Milwaukee a week and a 521 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:53,920 Speaker 1: half ago feels like a lifetime ago now. When South 522 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 1: Freelick and Jackson Churio hit home runs in the ninth 523 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 1: inning or the eighth inning to take a lead in 524 00:22:57,840 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 1: that game, that felt like a naw on the coffin. 525 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 1: When the Philly had their walk off win two Sundays ago, 526 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:03,480 Speaker 1: that felt like one warn't can be able to come 527 00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 1: back from. When you guys trounced us in Game one 528 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 1: of this series, got all over Cod San. You couldn't 529 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 1: find the strikes and we couldn't scratch a run across. 530 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,320 Speaker 1: It felt like the end ND too, But I mean, yeah, 531 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 1: that that one didn't feel like the end. That When 532 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 1: I was I think I was more confident and positive 533 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 1: than most Mets fans. Yeah, there's my stat right there. 534 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:18,679 Speaker 1: That was Game four. Sad they had a typo in 535 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:21,199 Speaker 1: the ballpark. It was just reeling and the head was spinning. 536 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:23,919 Speaker 1: But there's just they have to be able to hit. 537 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 1: And every time this team looks like they've gone through 538 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,159 Speaker 1: his skins with the lineup, someone's gotten a big hit, 539 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 1: someone's found a way to come alive. Maybe they just 540 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:32,360 Speaker 1: need another Grand Slam tonight. Like Alvarezlndor had a chance 541 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 1: with the Grand slams last night. Forget one of those 542 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 1: Grand slams, he probably win that game too. You can't 543 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 1: bang on a Grand Slam to win every postseason game, 544 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,120 Speaker 1: but someone just has to get that big hit. And 545 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,120 Speaker 1: I know this is a stupid stat because the Mets 546 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:43,920 Speaker 1: have been shut out in two or three games a series, 547 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 1: but both whoever's hit the most home runs and whoever 548 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: scored first has won these games. So it's very big 549 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:50,880 Speaker 1: for the Mets to get out to a fast start. 550 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: Keep show, hey, Moki and Freeman off the board in 551 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 1: the first inning and Manufacture runs to the top of 552 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 1: the other I need that so badly. 553 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 2: And that's before and this game starts to. 554 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,159 Speaker 3: Well, I tell you what it has been boom or 555 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 3: bust offense on both sides. Both clubs have been that 556 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 3: way in the first three games of the series. James, 557 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 3: we certainly hope that you were wrong on everything. We 558 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 3: hope that we are right on everything. We wish you 559 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:14,679 Speaker 3: the best of luck, my friend. Again. Welcome to the 560 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 3: foul Territory family.

As always, we appreciate 568 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 3: you giving us the opportunity to talk about a pup 569 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,920 Speaker 3: in need. This is Bueno. He is one years old, 570 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:46,480 Speaker 3: he is eleven pounds, he is really good with or 571 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 3: do we not have bueno? 572 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 4: That's all right, that's the one thing I messed up on. 573 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:50,359 Speaker 4: I apologize. 574 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 3: That's okay. I'll tell you. I'll tell you about Bueno 575 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 3: and I'll post him on social Don't worry. He's one 576 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 3: years old, he's eleven pounds, he is neutered, he is vaccinated. 577 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 3: He is great with other dogs, he is great with kids. 578 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:05,640 Speaker 3: He is a terrier that has wiry fur that does 579 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 3: not shed. He is in desperate need of a new 580 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 3: home right now. He's in San Pedro, California. So again 581 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:13,680 Speaker 3: I'll put it on our socials, adopt Buenos a. He's 582 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,399 Speaker 3: a very bueno actually means good in Spanish. He is 583 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 3: a very good dog. So we'll get that posted, all right. 584 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:23,360 Speaker 3: Baseball thought for the road, Clint Pisias, how about this today? 585 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 3: Twenty years ago today, Dave Roberts, as a member of 586 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 3: the Boston Red Sox, stole that very very important base. 587 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 3: They went on to win the World Series, of course, 588 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 3: in four four champs. How does Dave Roberts, everybody listen 589 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 3: and watch, I'm putting this in quotes, steal the game tonight. 590 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 3: He's he's hit all the right buttons so far this postseason. 591 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:48,399 Speaker 4: Yeah, listen as as much as I was calling for 592 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 4: Dave's head after Game two, Game three of the NLDS. 593 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 4: I even said then, this has been his arguably his 594 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 4: most impressive postseason as the manager of the Dodgers. He's 595 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:03,159 Speaker 4: pulling all the right levers. Nine years of trials and 596 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 4: errors and pain and suffering got him to this point 597 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 4: where I find me a better manager in baseball than 598 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 4: David f and Roberts. I don't even know if he 599 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 4: goes by fully, Dave. 600 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 2: But. 601 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 4: Just just let your boys go out there and keep 602 00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,359 Speaker 4: doing the thing. Uh, you know That's what I'm going 603 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 4: I'm going with, let them keep doing their thing. Show. Hey, 604 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 4: he's got a taste for the NLCS. Now, got that 605 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 4: big time Homer last night. You know, have your faith 606 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 4: in Yamamoto. But no win to go to the bullpen. 607 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 4: I think that's the biggest thing. No one when to 608 00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 4: go to the bullpen. 609 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 1: Uh. 610 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,679 Speaker 4: We're seeing Copek early in games, We're seeing trying in 611 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 4: early in games. We're seeing big pieces, and you have 612 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:46,200 Speaker 4: some guys rested. A good friend of mine, Alana Rizzo, 613 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:48,800 Speaker 4: said recently, you know you gotta you gotta shove that 614 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 4: hose down their throat, keep keep drowning him do not 615 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 4: let off. You gotta win this game, and let's not 616 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 4: even go Let's let's not bring this series back home 617 00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 4: to La, you know, in search of needing one more win. 618 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 4: Let's go back home where they could rest. Freddy's ankle 619 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:05,920 Speaker 4: can get better. Maybe Miggi Rose you know, hip can 620 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:07,480 Speaker 4: get better, and he's an option to be in that 621 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 4: World Series roster or whatever. But you're in a really, 622 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 4: really good spot as Los Angeles Dodgers. 623 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 3: I agree with you. I'd love it if they could 624 00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 3: have a couple of days, but I don't want too 625 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 3: many days off. I don't want too much of a layoff, 626 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,880 Speaker 3: and I don't want the I don't want the lineup 627 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 3: to be shifted. If Miggi is good enough to go, 628 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,439 Speaker 3: Meggie can come off the bench. I don't want Meggie starting. 629 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:26,879 Speaker 3: I want Keyk starting. I don't want tell me Edmund 630 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 3: out of the lineup. Don't mess with it. This has worked, 631 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:32,639 Speaker 3: and I love I love Miguil Rojas. Okay, but this 632 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,679 Speaker 3: is working. Key K is working in this lineup. Okay, 633 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:38,680 Speaker 3: So let's uh, let's uh, let's take care of business 634 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:42,159 Speaker 3: tonight and speaking tonight tonight, don't forget you guys, we 635 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 3: have a postgame show tonight after the game, So come 636 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:47,200 Speaker 3: and join Clint and I again for the Dodgers' post 637 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 3: game show.
