1 00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:11,320 Speaker 1: What u up, everybody? Well, the Mets, and that's the podcast. 2 00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:13,080 Speaker 1: I don't know how this sounds, I don't know how 3 00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:16,120 Speaker 1: it looks. We are currently drunk on the fourth of July. 4 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:18,079 Speaker 2: Yes, we are in James's basement. 5 00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:22,120 Speaker 1: You see a variety of artworks and pleasant trees behind 6 00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:23,319 Speaker 1: us and my sister's tree. 7 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:26,520 Speaker 2: It's a hand painted tree by Julia. 8 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:28,880 Speaker 1: Shout out to Julia. That's one of my snowmen right here. 9 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:32,560 Speaker 1: Shout out to the Chiano family. We're alive from the 10 00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,959 Speaker 1: sub floor of the first floor of the Chiano family household. 11 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:38,199 Speaker 1: We're talking about the New York Mets. Uh, this is 12 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:40,280 Speaker 1: gonna be a weird episode. I'm not gonna lie again. 13 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 1: Don't know how it's gonna sound, don't know how it's 14 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:43,840 Speaker 1: gonna look, But you're gonna get one because the boys 15 00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 1: don't miss a single series. Mets a little bit disappointing 16 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 1: split the series against the Nationals two and two. Won 17 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:53,559 Speaker 1: the first two games, lost the last two games in 18 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 1: kind of annoying fashion. Yeah, what's the what's the initial 19 00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:58,920 Speaker 1: reaction we're feeling. And this reaction is that I think 20 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:01,639 Speaker 1: the Mets team is put themselves in the spot where 21 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: they're good now instead of being bad like officially. Yeah. 22 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 2: But also I think. 23 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 1: The overriding theme of the series kind of comes back 24 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 1: to the Edmund D shit and suspension oh major Yeah, 25 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:15,039 Speaker 1: the fact that the Mets are basically playing like ever 26 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 1: really team the mess have played for the last the 27 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 1: Astra series, now this National series, the Mets are basically 28 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:21,759 Speaker 1: playing short handed. The team's not a power play because 29 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:23,960 Speaker 1: playing down roster spot, you could just feel a game 30 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 1: after game especially three Yeah, decision after decision. Every single 31 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 1: thing that crass Mendoza has to do kind of has 32 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 1: a little bit to do with the Edmund D stuff 33 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 1: and that sucks. But I give a lot of credit 34 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 1: to him and the Mets roster and especially the pitching staff, 35 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 1: I guess, besides Jake Deaman for pitching, for battling through 36 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,040 Speaker 1: all these things. I love I love Jake Deacons. I 37 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 1: want him staying in this team. I know the whole 38 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,040 Speaker 1: Mets fan has turned on him, but he just had 39 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 1: He's had a miserable month and a half. Otherwise, I 40 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: don't know, but you can just feel every single decision 41 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 1: like just to jump in shit. Like I don't think 42 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: that Mendoza pushes Christian Scott's ninety nine pitches after he 43 00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 1: had just spent a month pitching no more. Insteady pitches 44 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 1: out in besides this happening, and you had to get 45 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 1: through another inning with them, or even today like Kintana 46 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 1: came out, came out through the seventh, was great through 47 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 1: the seventh, and then the Howser was eight ninth and 48 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 1: unfortunately Howser gave the home run Jesse Winker, who Jesse 49 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: Winker I think has six home runs and twenty three 50 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,959 Speaker 1: played appearance again to Adrian Hawser, to which you're like, well, 51 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 1: fuck me, Like, were you have another option? What are 52 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: we supposed to do? Like get him out? You didn't 53 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: get him out. Also, the score a run, so it's 54 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 1: like you the Nationals reached by one in a one 55 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 1: nothing game, score a run. Something else that's stupid and 56 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 1: funny is that the Nationals the first two games this 57 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 1: series use their a bullpen and blew both games. They 58 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 1: know cal Finnigin blew not Calfin again, counter Harvey blew 59 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 1: two holds to blow two blown saves and hold opportunity 60 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 1: to two games. 61 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 2: Robert Garcia has got some stuff. 62 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 1: It was super soft, but the Mets crushed him and 63 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 1: then they got shut down by him. But they used 64 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 1: to They used the same three guys for the first 65 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: three game. Yes, they were making a big deal about 66 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: them that as well. This was my point because there 67 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 1: was a difference there, and like the Mets get Lotcraft 68 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: winning those first two games, talking I'm getting my beer, yeah, 69 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:55,920 Speaker 1: go and get your beery, jumping into extra endings winning 70 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 1: those two games, like being kind of subdued through the 71 00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: first nine names of both games and going ballistic for 72 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: sure innings of both of them scoring what five. 73 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 2: A Monday night and then three or four and then back. 74 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 1: To back five back to back five son runs next 75 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 1: your innings and then like maybe six five maximum the 76 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: other I don't numbers. I don't know thinka front it 77 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: was great, but this is a this is a chaos episode, sure, 78 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 1: but there's a there's a difference in psychology the managers. 79 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 1: I don't think it's a wrong difference, but something that 80 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,679 Speaker 1: in a vacuum cost the Mets a game and won 81 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: the Nationals a game. Where Carls Mendoza was I think 82 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 1: rightfully didn't want to use his A team relievers in 83 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 1: three short games. He didn't want to push Daniel Newonis. 84 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:32,679 Speaker 1: He didn't want to push reed Garrett didn't want to 85 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 1: do that. Where Davie Martinez in game three of the series, 86 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 1: on when we're losing all these games, here are best 87 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: he said, fuck this, I need to win this game. 88 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:42,119 Speaker 1: I need to find a way to win this series 89 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: if I want to keep my team in the playoff race, 90 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: which truthfully he kept them in there. That thing right, 91 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: this year, they solved the series because they used Hunter Harvey. 92 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: I think I don't know if you Robert Year again 93 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: and Hunter Harvey got one out after blowing two straight 94 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 1: games and getting a hold on my bench and fantasy, 95 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 1: I was so mad, But I mean there there is 96 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 1: something to say about the fact that the Nationals winning 97 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 1: the last game was able to save them too. It 98 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: was a two game swing. Yeah, because it's the Mets 99 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: win it. They're up three games on the Nationals. Now, 100 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: if they lose it, they're up one, which is what's. 101 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 2: What they currently are. 102 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: They came out of the series the same place where 103 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: they end one game up on the Nationals. And I 104 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,160 Speaker 1: think Davey Martinez, for all intense purposes, is not really 105 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:21,040 Speaker 1: a great manager. 106 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 2: I don't think he handles the game. 107 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: Well, like he pulled mackenzie Gore in that first game 108 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 1: insanely early, but he had one hundred pitches third time 109 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,160 Speaker 1: to go on. But in that exact moment the game, 110 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:31,719 Speaker 1: it was weird to pull them. But then he like 111 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: kept dj hers yeah at a point and it was like, 112 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 1: so the okay, Sam with Mitchell Parker a little bit, 113 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: but it's like, you have a premier possible pitcher in 114 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,600 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball. Mackenzie Gore in a couple years is 115 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: gonna be one of the ten best pictures in baseball. 116 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,719 Speaker 1: It feels like, no doubt burgeting as he's he's amazing, 117 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: He's really really good, and hopefully the Mets get there 118 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 1: at some point. 119 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:52,839 Speaker 2: Christian Scott whoever else is coming up next. 120 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: But McKenzie Gore was relatively cruising through the beginning of 121 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,720 Speaker 1: this game, and I assume at the minute they took 122 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: him out, the Mets show all over him and like, 123 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:02,840 Speaker 1: thank you David Martinez again, I know you've won a 124 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 1: World Series again. Kind of proves that, like managerial does manage, 125 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 1: managers don't really matter that much and they only really 126 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: hurt your team at some point. 127 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 2: They do, they matter a lot in a clubhouse. The 128 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 2: one thing, the one thing I will say about the Nationals. 129 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 2: They talk about some on the broadcast on Sunday. 130 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 1: They're saying that they at the beginning of the year 131 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 1: and spring training and a throw up on the on 132 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,040 Speaker 1: like the dark boards and everything, the philosophy, and they 133 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: were like, I don't care how hard you throw ball four. Yeah, 134 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,119 Speaker 1: And the Nationals don't walk anybody, and that's a huge 135 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:31,840 Speaker 1: problem for the Mets. 136 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 2: The Mets still to this day walk way too many batters. 137 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 1: And if there was ever a problem with Jake Deepman, 138 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: the problem is he walks everybody. If he's not striking 139 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: you out, he's basically walking you at this point, and 140 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,039 Speaker 1: that's kind of why they lost Game three. Was just 141 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: letting too many guys on easy, letting too many guys 142 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,279 Speaker 1: on early. But at the end of the day, I'll 143 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 1: say this, does it feel weird that I'm not frustrated 144 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 1: about this series completely? 145 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 2: Okay? 146 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 1: Because I think, like you said at the beginning, I 147 00:05:58,160 --> 00:05:59,840 Speaker 1: think this justifies the Mets as. 148 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 2: A good team. But they had one. But they have 149 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 2: to be better if they want to be a playoff team. 150 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,799 Speaker 1: Yes, but I think that in this series, especially between 151 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: the first two games, the last two games. 152 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 2: If you have said, if you would just showed me 153 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 2: the first seven. 154 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,040 Speaker 1: Innings of all four of those games, the Met's one, two, 155 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:15,480 Speaker 1: and last two, I would have been. 156 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 2: Frustrated, but it would be fine with that. Oh you 157 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,040 Speaker 2: think so? Yes, I don't know, dude, Like go to 158 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 2: five five nothing tonight five one. 159 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: In fact, Me's have blown two five leads in the 160 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: last watch six games. 161 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 2: That's really bad. Yes, well, we also know the situation. 162 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 2: I think if the Mets of the full roster right 163 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,119 Speaker 2: now in full ball, then probably probably at least don't 164 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:33,039 Speaker 2: blow both of those. Yeah, I blow one of them, 165 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 2: probably don't blow both of them. The mess of Washington, 166 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 2: what happens in Washington, she's crazy. 167 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: I would like the Washington Nationals rotation is a cool 168 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:43,679 Speaker 1: it's a cool message to the rest of exercise because 169 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:47,279 Speaker 1: they've built mckenziere is amazing, like you said, and like 170 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 1: Mitchell Parker's really good. But Mitchell Parker, DJ hers And 171 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,119 Speaker 1: and Jake irv and are all weird in different ways. 172 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: But even the way that they've Draker j German, I 173 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 1: love Draker. He's so good, it's really good. I think 174 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,160 Speaker 1: he's good in a way that's not obviously good. Oh, 175 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 1: of course, he just shows up with a bunch of 176 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 1: different pitches. He'll drop curveballs, so good, doesn't I'm so 177 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 1: good to have the curveball drop on rights and lefties 178 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 1: and and manipulate that fastball moved around the traction. It's 179 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 1: a it's a lessons against let's the other teams in baseball, though. 180 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: You don't have to develop pitching one way, no, and 181 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: you can find starving caliber major league pitchers quickly and secretly. 182 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 1: We were looking at the other day, who have the 183 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 1: Nationals get DJ Hurris. DJ Hurris was traded for Jamier 184 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: Candelario Jamier hen Laurio last year. Trade the line even made. 185 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 1: That's like a nonsense rental trade. Look again, think about 186 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 1: this and the met's context right now. 187 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 2: Everybody just keep this in mind because trade deadlines coming up. 188 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: We'll do an episode We're not Talkimer Candelario for DJ 189 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 1: Hurris from the Cups Ubs and they trade him to 190 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 1: the Cups and d J Hurris, I don't think it 191 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: is fantastic, but any stretch the imagine, I don't think. 192 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: I don't know if he's gonna be a guy's like 193 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: a seven year pitcher. But right now this season major 194 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 1: League Baseball, well, he's one of like twenty five guys up, 195 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 1: he's one of about twenty five guys in the league 196 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 1: to strike out ten batters in a game twice this season. Yeah, no, 197 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: I's serious, And this now team is a good lesson 198 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 1: for everybody being like you could just you could figure 199 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: it out differently and just just to scope it, DJ 200 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 1: Hurs pose it, Kingtan to close your eyes. 201 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 2: What's the difference? Yeah, I mean one of them, was there? 202 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 2: One of them? 203 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: We paid ten million dollars a year, one of them 204 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: first five hundred thousand dollars. 205 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 2: Or whatever the league minimum is. That's the hope. That's 206 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 2: the hope. 207 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 1: That's that's where you make these moves with these rental 208 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 1: players like maybe like a Luisa Brio or Sean Manya, 209 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 1: and you hope this is the positive you can get 210 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 1: and relatively speaking, at the end of the day, if you. 211 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 2: Don't even get it, you're not really But. 212 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 1: It's just worth a try, It's worth a shot because 213 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 1: the and this one we've talked about for a while now, 214 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 1: the Mets lacked that that middling free player where it's 215 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,559 Speaker 1: like they're in cisco A Banto's now or end of 216 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: those guys. But like, we are paying ten million dollars 217 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: to Harrison Mayer, We're paying six million dollars to Tyrone Taylor, 218 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: We're paying four million dollars. 219 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 2: To Adrian Howes, Like what what whatever? These contracts are 220 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 2: even Taylor? And how's it? 221 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: We only got because the Brewers are trying to shed 222 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 1: their salary towards the end of their arbitration areas. Yes, 223 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 1: so it's like if we can get more free players 224 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 1: to us, and this is a bigger conversation than we 225 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: really need to have right now. 226 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, but we got here out of because we're drunk. 227 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:09,000 Speaker 1: But the idea is that the Nationals, as much as 228 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 1: we dog them and like make fun of them, they 229 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 1: did Eric. 230 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 2: They did it pretty well. 231 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: As much as Mike Rizzo is probably not the most 232 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: forward thinking GM in Major League Baseball, good baseball happened. 233 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 1: He's he's doing some good baseball stuff. And I think 234 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 1: the Nationals are nice, Like, look under the microscope of 235 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: we traded one so to generation a bit differently. Yes, 236 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 1: you can do it differently. That's really where it comes. Yes, 237 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:30,959 Speaker 1: chean do a little bit higher this year too, he 238 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:32,840 Speaker 1: brought a little more of like a data driven approach 239 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 1: by pitching that it's just there. They went from being 240 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 1: a team that we thought that was going to be 241 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 1: a pure bottom feed there for years, but a scrappy 242 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 1: team that you don't really want to run into. And 243 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:49,200 Speaker 1: I mean fucking Jesse winker Man that haunts us. Also, Yeah, 244 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 1: well that's I mean, talk like a talking about a 245 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 1: young core shit. We're speaking like guys under the age 246 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 1: of twenty three. Luis Garcia hang us two home runs 247 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,439 Speaker 1: on when he's also twenty three. I've been in a 248 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 1: Bluie Scars guy forever, which I hate to be, but 249 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: he hit those home runs. 250 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 2: C J. 251 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 1: Abrams is we're not talking about them. C j Aribdams 252 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 1: is one of the premier short stops in baseball. He's 253 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 1: just such a good ballplayer. I had to add James 254 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 1: One on top of that, who we didn't get a 255 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: huge taste of because it's been four games and he 256 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:19,200 Speaker 1: didn't do an insane amount. But he's yeah, and they 257 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 1: put against the righty, And I mean, he's been a 258 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 1: guy that I've been so instantly high on, high on 259 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 1: since I ever saw him swinger bad. 260 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 2: So I loved how much Keith liked C. J. Abrams. 261 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: Yes, oh, he was drooling because he sees like a 262 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 1: lanky athletic. He has that nice long leverage playing where 263 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: he crushes low pad. 264 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 2: Shit. 265 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 1: That's where the cool combination of like new school and 266 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,439 Speaker 1: old school comes together. Like Keith Fernandez, who, for lack 267 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 1: of better terms, doesn't know fuck about anything like or 268 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 1: knows a lot about everything. He knows about baseball. He 269 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 1: knows about what he played, he knows about what he did. 270 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 1: He knows about the things he knows, but he doesn't 271 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 1: know the new school so sure, and but Keith is 272 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: so knowledgeable he he circumvents analytics sometimes. 273 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 2: He had the comment by Alphareze. 274 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 1: He just talked about his swing mechanics and like how 275 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: how like how his basses with his feet. 276 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,199 Speaker 2: Apart and hit anything, and then how he like comes 277 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 2: out and. 278 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,719 Speaker 1: Like swings with his put his shoulders out, and he 279 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 1: said that, oh, it makes so much sense how well 280 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 1: he hits the pitches high away, and and but how 281 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 1: he struggles with the pitch inside. Yes, because he likes 282 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 1: to get his arms out there. That's how he totally extend. Yeah, 283 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 1: and it's funny because if you look at the analytics 284 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: or principal, but you look at his hot some in 285 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: that that up and in that's where he struggles, and 286 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 1: it's like, it's amazing that. I know Keith has never 287 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 1: looked at that season at once, but it was it 288 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 1: was cool to see guys like Abrams and Wood. Awesome series. 289 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 1: What did so many tiny little things National We'll get 290 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,680 Speaker 1: to that second. There was the one play that was 291 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 1: hit to left field. Somebody hit a slicing ball to 292 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: left field and he cut it off and it kept 293 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 1: like a double and it wasn't anything particularly good, but 294 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,559 Speaker 1: I think that texted was like, it's pretty incredible how 295 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 1: easily he got to that baseball and how quickly he 296 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: got it in Like he's the knife in tremendous arm 297 00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 1: for what he is as a human. He's he these 298 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: two eyes right here. Abrams and Wood are gonna be guys. 299 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 1: The Nationals field grown. 300 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 2: They're not going anywhere until they have to pay them 301 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 2: again at some point. If that happens. The Nationals have money, 302 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:08,680 Speaker 2: like they. 303 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:10,560 Speaker 1: Just want to oh, of course, well it's all deferred 304 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 1: to and there they to be fair, they also do 305 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 1: get fucked by the Orioles and that TV becoming we 306 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 1: passed the Firman Day, So shoutout Mackscher as their frew matchers. 307 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,439 Speaker 2: He got paid by three different teams on show. 308 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 1: Up Bobby Bell one million dollars not even close.

He did 383 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 1: get to the golden bar Tuesday. He seems to struggle 384 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 1: against lefties, which is super interesting. I don't feel like 385 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 1: he does it as well against lefties as he does 386 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 1: against right He's which just seen fewer seems Albert seems 387 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 1: like some player that he's really he really acknowledges well 388 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 1: things that are happening right, Yes, that very We interviewed 389 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 1: him with the cyclones, he talked about it. He made 390 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 1: it made him a better hitter, he said. When he 391 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 1: was catching for the ABYSM in low A in twenty 392 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 1: twenty one, he got to learn the strikes. 393 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 2: Because yeah, he said, he knew exactly where the strikes 394 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 2: were going to be. 395 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,479 Speaker 1: So when he was at Saint Lucy, he knew exactly 396 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 1: what he had to look for where it has to 397 00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 1: be with that super six beautiful stuff. Like I saw 398 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 1: a clip from Jerry Blevens and he was talking about 399 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 1: how impressed he is with the Francisco Overarus and I 400 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 1: agree along with Carls Mendoza, And just like, how good 401 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 1: of a job Carls Mendoza has done. Now I don't 402 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 1: know if he had he has started throwing out money 403 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 1: to those two guys. Just yeah, sure I would. I 404 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: want I wanted to give Mendoza a lot of gratu 405 00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 1: right now. Of course go for people were weirdly shitting 406 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 1: on him for when Deecmon blew the game on, like 407 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 1: how could you. 408 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:25,120 Speaker 2: Supposed to come in? 409 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 1: And because the National stack that line up with lefty 410 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 1: I think there were seven lefties on a nine players 411 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 1: against Ristian Scott, which makes sense because Christo and Gary 412 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 1: talked about an amazing moment from the game Tuesday that 413 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 1: he had with Mendoza where he asked Mendoza just about 414 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 1: his management style, the way he was using his pictures, 415 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 1: and that Mendoza was so honest about the movement from 416 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 1: Budo to Daniel noonany as that game looked awesome. Look, 417 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 1: actually I shan't did it really. I thought he looked 418 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 1: great in relief. He wasn't throwing pitches in the strike zone. 419 00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 2: He was, but he was not. He wasn't good at 420 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 2: putting them in chase spots, but they still did them. 421 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: There's a lot of a lot of the change ups floated, 422 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 1: They flooded in there. He only he only get thirty 423 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 1: percent change ups are like whatever I was. 424 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 2: Change so good. That's not good. 425 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, just he needs all three and the fastball, like 426 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:15,920 Speaker 1: he gets extra life when he's actually an of course. Yeah. 427 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 1: And it's also weird for a guy who's gonna start 428 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,440 Speaker 1: with his whole life to not have like your all 429 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 1: day long tossing routine, of course, and then throw your 430 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:23,639 Speaker 1: ballpends and then come in the game and then to 431 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,360 Speaker 1: relax her energy to be like I'm throwing out. But yeah, Mendoza, 432 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:28,879 Speaker 1: Gary said, was so honest when he was like, so 433 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: tell me about like the difference, like Mendoza and Nuna 434 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 1: is coming. 435 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:32,640 Speaker 2: But I'm just gonna check the battery. 436 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 1: He d know checking out, no worries, but he said that, 437 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 1: and again you're really being refreshed by his honesty. He 438 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,520 Speaker 1: was like, if we would have still been tied but 439 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:42,640 Speaker 1: left him Budo for that inning, but with the lead 440 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,240 Speaker 1: potentially safe situation, I wanted to use Unia's there. Also, 441 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 1: Budo threw one hundred pitches on Friday, so we knew, yes, 442 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 1: we do throw, you know him throwing on Tuesday, if 443 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:53,159 Speaker 1: you got over thirty or forty pitches another day at least. 444 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 2: He actually they didn't about once they were done with it, yes, 445 00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:57,240 Speaker 2: because they have this other. 446 00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,359 Speaker 1: Game now got Fridays.

McCarthy legends before every at bet J J. 505 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 1: Martinez takes about hundred swings, one hundred maybe fifty, I 506 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 1: can't remember remember now I get I'm drunk, but he 507 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 1: says he's thinking in the cage game. 508 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:32,200 Speaker 2: Here's the thing, that's all he does. I think about 509 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:34,119 Speaker 2: the twist on the cleat. Dude, there's eye twice on 510 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:35,680 Speaker 2: the clean I've taken Mark. 511 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 1: You're not Jr. You got high school Babs?

He says, 515 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 1: it's OCD. Maybe it it's borderline, but that's fine. But 516 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 1: the fact that take off the game was kind of hilarious. 517 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:53,959 Speaker 1: And there was also because he bought some off with Amazon. 518 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 1: He was like, oh, the fun hurt my ankles. McCarthy 519 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,439 Speaker 1: also rapped hilarious story off that with him. Keith were 520 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 1: talking about Jadie Martinez cleats that Luisa, we're gonna uses 521 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 1: the same model of pleats that he found in two 522 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:07,639 Speaker 1: thousand and nine. That's awesome. So he was like, seventeen, 523 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:11,199 Speaker 1: do you remember your cleats? They're around you don't remember them? 524 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 1: I know they were a night Nike Hiachi, I was 525 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:15,159 Speaker 1: Karachi right. 526 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:17,359 Speaker 2: Love that again. It's funny to think about these little 527 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 2: tiny things of baseball players. 528 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 1: I heard like an also funny comment of Trougis Jadie 529 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 1: Martinez Adidas, that's got to be the worst baseball company ever. Well, 530 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 1: day dream about soccer. Let's see that the worst guy whatever, 531 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 1: cool thing I heard. Trevor may have been talking about 532 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 1: this in the Race and Barrels podcast this week. He 533 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 1: said that like it's a it's a thing that as 534 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,399 Speaker 1: relief pitchers come in the game where every other pictures 535 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 1: like stopspot. 536 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:40,439 Speaker 2: This, oh, like where they were? 537 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 1: And Trevor May is like, I was always okay with Look, 538 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:43,520 Speaker 1: I'm the big guy, so I knew I was always. 539 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:45,199 Speaker 2: Shrining over guys. Yeah. But the map. 540 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 1: They talked about that story. 541 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 2: Where Zach Ranke told the grounds to come out and 542 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:54,639 Speaker 2: fix the mound. He sat down. I mean city fields, mountains, crooked, 543 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 2: but thank god. Yeah, thanks City Fields. Shout Jim Bob. 544 00:21:57,840 --> 00:21:59,399 Speaker 1: Talk about Chris Scott for a second too. I'll talk 545 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 1: about CS. Christian Gott came back. 546 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 2: To the majors and it was it was. 547 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 1: It was such a good start for the whole like 548 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 1: time and a half, I felt, I felt, I felt good, 549 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:14,119 Speaker 1: but not great. It was good in the fact that 550 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:18,679 Speaker 1: his confidence and waiver, the fastball looked good, and there 551 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 1: was lines with entirely of lefties, and while a lot 552 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: of contact was being made, he wasn't missing a lot 553 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 1: of the bats. I don't think a lot of the 554 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,719 Speaker 1: contact was meaningful or potentially damaging contact. 555 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:29,159 Speaker 2: Just a lot of ground balls with a lot of 556 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,879 Speaker 2: lazy flyballs. And his fastball command was better than it 557 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 2: was last time. 558 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,200 Speaker 1: But I felt he wasn't sharp. He wasn't And the 559 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 1: whole reason he wasn't sharp is because that splither split 560 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 1: change she called us to be broadcast. 561 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,360 Speaker 2: No, the splither wasn't. He needs that pitch. 562 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 1: Against lefties because that's that's the only pitch that truly 563 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 1: moves up and down where he has the sweeper that 564 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 1: really breaks against the rithy's and the gyro that kind 565 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 1: of is the Titan. The tight one where Keith Keith 566 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:53,439 Speaker 1: was having is if you guys watched Keith like different 567 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 1: championing his slide. 568 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 2: Here was having trouble too. He was calling a lot 569 00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 2: of curve balls with sliders change ups. 570 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:00,679 Speaker 1: That's just not true because they I think that Christian 571 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 1: Scott's repertoire is a little weird for that. 572 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:03,159 Speaker 2: But he couldn't. 573 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: He just couldn't grab that splither And he talked about 574 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:08,640 Speaker 1: that after the game, and he just that was heard 575 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 1: in hindering him because of course the line was seventh 576 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 1: of course and borrow. If you would have gotten out 577 00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: of that start in the five innicks after you got 578 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:16,920 Speaker 1: that jam in the fifth inning, feel different, It would 579 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:17,399 Speaker 1: have been perfect. 580 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 2: But the fact that he had to come out for 581 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:20,880 Speaker 2: that sex and again Christian Scotts had to do that also. 582 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,159 Speaker 1: It was the right decision by them, and just he 583 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: he would have gotten out of the two Scooby do. 584 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:27,639 Speaker 2: Shit if he can throw that one fucking hanging swipper. 585 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:29,919 Speaker 2: It was. It was literally one bad pitch and they 586 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,120 Speaker 2: had that weird miscall that was right down in the middle. Yes, 587 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 2: call for a strike, but I still. 588 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, so he still wasn't that that was still kind 589 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:38,200 Speaker 1: of falling bar and there was not fucking shitty ground 590 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 1: balls that got through. But he just against It's seven 591 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,119 Speaker 1: lefties in that lineup because Christian Scott and with that 592 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,640 Speaker 1: splither not really working, and it also wasn't really working 593 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: the first time he came to the league. 594 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 2: It's hard for him to get through the lefties. And 595 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 2: we were talking about it during the game. I took 596 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 2: in the back, yeah, and it. 597 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:55,640 Speaker 1: Looked like he took a little bit off his fastball roly. 598 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:57,200 Speaker 1: He wanted to bring the velocity back up. It was 599 00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,159 Speaker 1: only like like ninety four in the first inning, but 600 00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 1: he was being very particular about where he was throwing 601 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 1: the fastball in his own he was he was sitting 602 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 1: edges more than he was earlier, which I think it 603 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 1: was cool, and I think that's worthwhile cool just because 604 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,880 Speaker 1: the way his fastball moves, he can still be effective 605 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,920 Speaker 1: lower velocity and if the slip spoiler is not there, 606 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,640 Speaker 1: then he needs to spot that fastball. I get lefty 607 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 1: out to get tough lefty out the second third time 608 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:19,680 Speaker 1: right over, which you had to do. 609 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 2: And this is the guy the Mets sent him down 610 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 2: to work less. 611 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,399 Speaker 1: He hasn't thrown more seventy five pitches in an outing 612 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:26,720 Speaker 1: since he left New York in May, really, so for 613 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 1: him to get up to ninety nine in the start, 614 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:30,919 Speaker 1: they asked a lot of two more the way you've 615 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 1: been here, and you had to do this because the 616 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 1: Mets are playing a shorthanded for ten days, which fucking sucks. 617 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:38,400 Speaker 2: And that's just to last six two days, two days. 618 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:43,199 Speaker 2: So yeah, I guess those pirates man, all right. 619 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:46,120 Speaker 1: I mean, it's just it is frustrated that the Mets 620 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 1: had the opportunity to win three or four, truthful, to 621 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 1: win four or four because they lost by one running game. Yeah, 622 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 1: Jake Irvan did your shuts down sometimes took the cap totally. 623 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 1: And that's also about MLB the fac. I don't know 624 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:59,480 Speaker 1: why we played this game, dude. After the game is insane. 625 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,359 Speaker 1: Both team slept walk Both teams were sleepwalking. So I 626 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 1: think the Nationals at four hits the Mets had one, 627 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,639 Speaker 1: which fuck, I mean, fuck us we're having one hit. 628 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 2: I can't really like. But I don't know why today's 629 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:12,359 Speaker 2: game didn't bother me as much. 630 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:15,360 Speaker 1: Well, I do know why today's game before the other game, 631 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:18,880 Speaker 1: because blowing the five ront lead just is yes, you can't. 632 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 1: You can't do that, and we've done twice in a week, 633 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:22,399 Speaker 1: and I know the bullpens short and then, but at 634 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,680 Speaker 1: the end of the day, I know Jake Deepman like 635 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 1: me and you both believe Jake Deepmon's better than what 636 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 1: he showed us. And we believe that Adam is better 637 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 1: than when he showed or maybe. 638 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:31,680 Speaker 2: Well maybe not more like demon. 639 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 1: We believe in this bullpen, maybe more than the common 640 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 1: Met fan does. I think that's probably fair, but but 641 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,119 Speaker 1: they now need to prove it and gave the home 642 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 1: around my guy. I need to add cock like Daniel 643 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 1: Nunia is awesome. It's nothing bad to say about that guy. 644 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:49,639 Speaker 1: Do you imagine when the Mets Ben didn't exist? Can 645 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:51,879 Speaker 1: you imagine where they'd be without him? And Red Garrett? 646 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 1: That's like three months ago, like Bright rehabbing, rehabing, can't wait, 647 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 1: goes down the forty mans. We're gonna need to finagle 648 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 1: to get him Onami Is I think Fusinami were actually 649 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:06,359 Speaker 1: gonna see the major league soon? Think so? 650 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think so. 651 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 1: I think I think within ten days two more podcast episodes, 652 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 1: we simple Seemi the majors, but right before they also 653 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 1: bring it's just it's it's a fucking dance that they 654 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:16,399 Speaker 1: have to do right now, which sucks because of the 655 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:19,119 Speaker 1: fucking suspension. And if you just suspended and because the 656 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,879 Speaker 1: brother up literally any human being it's fine, but just 657 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:24,920 Speaker 1: to push everybody like major shots Boodo for coming in, 658 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 1: like helping us close that game up.

We're drinking out here and altums is blue. 670 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 2: We're drinking, and I guess I. 671 00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 1: Close you guys out a couple of minutes about impaving 672 00:26:58,600 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 1: the padres passo. 673 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,680 Speaker 2: We're playing a couple of beers in them, a couple 674 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:03,440 Speaker 2: of gluten free beers. 675 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:05,400 Speaker 1: Yeah. We got the Pirates up next Paul Skins pitcher 676 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 1: Friday type and my phone. Paul Skeens is the best 677 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 1: picture of Major League Baseball's the sixth best. Well, I'll 678 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 1: say he's the best, and he should start the in 679 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:17,160 Speaker 1: he should start the All Star Game. I think we'll 680 00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 1: start the Altar Game next year. That's well, he should 681 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 1: start this year. You shouldn't because you didn't pitch enough 682 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,880 Speaker 1: to start. They no, yeah, I think either Chris Sell 683 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:28,240 Speaker 1: or glast Now I think okay, both Major essential League 684 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 1: Baseball knew anything about marketing. They start Paul Skeins Friday 685 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 1: Night six for you, though, Mets fans, you guys should 686 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 1: be sitting in front of you if he watched this. 687 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 1: We're gonna lose. Pa is gonna shut us down. We're 688 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,240 Speaker 1: gonna lose them except has been hot Fair and the Pirate. 689 00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:43,119 Speaker 1: We're not gonna touch Paul Skens because he's he's one 690 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 1: of the best. And Saturday four or five, we have 691 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 1: an asof who is it Bailey Falter versus David Peterson. 692 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 1: Fuck that is major is extension, Major extensions extension, Chino Hills, 693 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,359 Speaker 1: Bailey Falter. And then Sunday Mitch Kellor for Sham and 694 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 1: Ayah Chase. It is gonna be frustrating. And then Monday afternoon, 695 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 1: twelve thirty five, Christian Scott Jared Jones just won the 696 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:05,200 Speaker 1: i L. The last train he really did. That's usually 697 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 1: a month and I almost been a train now that 698 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 1: same drategy. I'm sure Pablo Lopez for Jared Jones and 699 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:13,200 Speaker 1: Cutter Crawford even made a huge mistake. 700 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:17,399 Speaker 2: Yeah again, he's a snake. I said that to him 701 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:18,400 Speaker 2: in the night. Yeah, I'm good. 702 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,360 Speaker 1: So that probably winds up being Quinn Priester or maybe 703 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 1: Luis Ortiz long day, ye. 704 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 2: Stretched out the star things. 705 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 1: Guys, he's been awesome this year. I know, but you 706 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 1: should foss up. But this Pirates team Lebron Rewald is 707 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 1: still really good. But Andrem Couch still hits really well, 708 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,239 Speaker 1: is good hot kee Brian Hate is super getting hot. 709 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 1: I Kee Brian has not taking the stab Matt's killer. 710 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, but they're there on the I L. They're a 711 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:42,320 Speaker 2: very beatable team. 712 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 1: But there, but Skens, Austin and Keller is quite good. 713 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 1: And this is not the Pirates place played earlier in 714 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:49,920 Speaker 1: the year, not even there. Long since Paul Skin has 715 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 1: been called up. I think they're one two o five 716 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:55,720 Speaker 1: three games over five hundred, which is not impressive, but 717 00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 1: they're good. But this is a Pirates team that if 718 00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 1: I told you that, you'd be like, fuck, really they are. 719 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 1: There's also a Pirates team that has vibes of of 720 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 1: like the area of the Cubs, or like the Mariners. 721 00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:08,800 Speaker 2: Or even like the Diamondbacks last year. Yeah, well, like, 722 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 2: I don't want to run into this team because they 723 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:13,880 Speaker 2: have a few pictures. I don't think I can hit. 724 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 1: Like I don't want to run to the team in 725 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 1: the playoffs because they got three pictures that are gonna. 726 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 2: Fuck me up. And like if Jeredo Metsvielle have faced 727 00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 2: all three, but if it's not. 728 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:26,960 Speaker 1: Ding down the preview of our wildcard matchup against them, 729 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 1: and we would get fucked. 730 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 2: We baseball fun. 731 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:32,240 Speaker 1: I'll say this, if we get to the wildcard, I 732 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,440 Speaker 1: want the mess to get the waldcard. The Braves are 733 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 1: just going to get the wild cards. That's why the 734 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 1: fucking works. But the best case there I think for 735 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 1: baseball fans is Braves Mets pirates because we love the Mets. 736 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 1: They're probably not, but we're the most fun. The Braves 737 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 1: just have to be there. So good and this Pirate's 738 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 1: rotation is Pirate is awesome. This Pirate team is This 739 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 1: Pirate seems cooking. Like in a couple of years are 740 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 1: gonna be a contender. 741 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 2: Brian Reynolds. Only CRUs like these are fun, exciting baseball player. 742 00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 2: And those aren't even the guys you build around. They 743 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 2: just those are gonna end of being the ancillary piece. 744 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 2: Cruse might be a guy you building. Man, I don't know. 745 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 2: I still think I'm out on O'Neil Cruise. He's twenty 746 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 2: eight and he's not. I think I think he's twenty 747 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 2: four is not? 748 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:12,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, twenty six, I think actually over twenty six out there, 749 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:13,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take the over. 750 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 2: Uh yeah, well yeah, that's the best over twenty six 751 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 2: twenty five. Fuck yep, damn it. 752 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 1: I set the line too high back, but you also 753 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: were far. Yeah I was closer, that was right, but 754 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 1: you were right. 755 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 2: Yes, But so it is. It's a fun Mets should 756 00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 2: do everything. I kind of win three of these games. 757 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 2: When you win too, we're still where we are, Joshua 758 00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 2: and I you went, what's yeah? And I either great? 759 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,440 Speaker 2: Game seven? The other seven?

There's been twenty six games out of 763 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 1: the thousand plus games played a Major League Baseball went 764 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 1: seven where both pitchers went seven. 765 00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:50,880 Speaker 2: The Mets have played four of them. 766 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:54,480 Speaker 1: I think, uh, Todd Glass Now, I don't remember exactly 767 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:55,520 Speaker 1: off the top of my head, but the Mets went 768 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:57,160 Speaker 1: four of them, which feels like a lot for a 769 00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:00,920 Speaker 1: team that I did play well this stream with Warthy 770 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 1: on Tuesday. 771 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:04,040 Speaker 2: So this series my brain is segment and Wardy, I 772 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:06,040 Speaker 2: love you, but brother, you get you can hike up 773 00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:08,200 Speaker 2: through every single play, Dude.
