1
00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:04,680
Speaker 1: Hey everybody, this is Bryan Howard and welcome to the

2
00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:05,800
Speaker 1: Philly Shows.

3
00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:15,200
Speaker 2: Borrow Junior, Jim Salisbury, Todd Zoleki. It's Tuesday, September twenty third,

4
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:19,960
Speaker 2: twenty twenty five. Hope everybody is doing great. Phillies off

5
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:23,480
Speaker 2: on Monday. They're back in action on Tuesday night against

6
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:27,479
Speaker 2: the Marlins. Six games left in the regular season. The

7
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 2: Phillies magic number to clinch a first round byas two.

8
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 2: Any combination of Phillies wins Dodgers losses that add up

9
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:38,600
Speaker 2: to two, and the Phillies get that first round by.

10
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 2: What do we want to see the final week of

11
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 2: the season, Let's talk about it. It's time for the

12
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:51,239
Speaker 2: park's first pitch. First pitch is brought to us exclusively

13
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 2: by our partners at Parks Casino, Pennsylvania's number one casinos.

14
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 2: So you know they're gonna get the first round by guys.

15
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 2: I mean, unless something disastrous, disastrous happens, they're going to

16
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 2: get the first round by and so everything's kind of

17
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 2: figured out. There's not a lot of drama, but there

18
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:12,320
Speaker 2: are some things I think that you kind of want

19
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 2: to see happen, or you hope happens. I've got something

20
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 2: in mind that I would like to see happen this week.

21
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:20,680
Speaker 2: What about you, Jim, Let's start with you. Is there

22
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 2: what would you like to see happen this week for

23
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,480
Speaker 2: the Phillies as they go into the bye week.

24
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 3: Well, there are a number of things, but you know,

25
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 3: I think one of the big ones I'd like to

26
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 3: see is I would just love to see the offense

27
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 3: click and you know, get warm, maybe approaching hot, just

28
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 3: because we all know how occasionally hit or miss it

29
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 3: can be. And I'd love to see the offense finish

30
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 3: on a strong note, give themselves some confidence, love to

31
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 3: she Schwore would get a couple more get up to

32
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 3: maybe fifty five, Little Sammy Hagar, I can't drive fifty five.

33
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 4: I'd love to see that. Yeah, double knicks.

34
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 3: And I would also like to see Alec Boum keeps

35
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 3: swinging it well he had a good weekend, because I

36
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 3: think it's really vital that they get, you know, a

37
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 3: right handed bat behind Harper that makes teams pay a

38
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 3: little bit if they don't pitch to him right little

39
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 3: protection there, and I think Bom is capable of being

40
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 3: that guy healthy now if he gets down a little

41
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 3: bit of hot streak, offer Harper some protection. And the

42
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:34,839
Speaker 3: final thing I'd like to see offensively, you know, one

43
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 3: big kind of ball of wax is Harper get it

44
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 3: going and finish strong, and finish hot, and finish in.

45
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 4: A good mindset.

46
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 3: Because I think when he feels good, and I'm not

47
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 3: even talking about physically. Obviously have to feel good physically,

48
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 3: but I think when he feels good mentally, I think

49
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 3: his whole game takes off and he plays at a

50
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 3: higher level with some some swagger and some confidence and

51
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 3: some I can't wait to rip your head off. So

52
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 3: those are some of the areas on the offense under

53
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 3: one heading of offense, I would like to see get going.

54
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 2: You want him to feel like he felt that day

55
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,079
Speaker 2: in San Francisco when he had a big game in

56
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 2: San Francisco and he comes out after he's like, I

57
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:22,679
Speaker 2: am a great player. Yeah. I mean, and he's right,

58
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,359
Speaker 2: you know, he's like, I want still tear it up,

59
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 2: you know, Like that's the kind of Bryce Harper you

60
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:27,679
Speaker 2: want to see.

61
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 3: I want to see him say, oh it's my it's

62
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 3: it's October.

63
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 4: It's my time to shine.

64
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 2: What do you got?

65
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 4: What do you got? Scott Todd?

66
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 2: So the Uh, well, it's kind of playing off Jim.

67
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 2: I want to see Trey Turner come back this week,

68
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 2: And this is part of this kind of like duvetails

69
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 2: off of what Jim's talking about. You want to see

70
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 2: Trey Turner come back this week playing a game or two,

71
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 2: maybe three games. I don't know how many games he's

72
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 2: gonna play. He's gonna face live pitching on Tuesday and Wednesday,

73
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 2: I think at the ballpark on hits one hundred percent running,

74
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 2: He's going to get into the game. You wanted to

75
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 2: see some pitches. Man, he was having a great season

76
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 2: before he got hurt. He's going to be motivated. He's

77
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 2: going to be motivated just to kind of get his

78
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 2: you know, just to get back and sink and get

79
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 2: his timing down. But he also has a chance to

80
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 2: win a batting titles. He would be the first Phillies

81
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,840
Speaker 2: player to win a batting title since Ritchie Ashburn in

82
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 2: nineteen fifty eight. Wow, pretty amazing. So I actually I

83
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 2: was looking up Whitey's season there that year and I'm like,

84
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 2: I wonder who finished second, and then Willie Mays finished second.

85
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 2: Willie May's finished he batted three forty seven. So then

86
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 2: I had this like weird, you know, like deja vuom moment.

87
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,720
Speaker 2: I go, I actually think I might have talked to

88
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 2: Willy Mays about this once, and I actually did. I

89
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,040
Speaker 2: wrote this book years ago. It's called The Good, the Bad,

90
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,120
Speaker 2: and the Ugly. And I just want to read this

91
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,559
Speaker 2: quote because I was like, I'm pretty sure Willy Mays

92
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:58,159
Speaker 2: talked about Whitey beating him for the batting title nineteen

93
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 2: fifty eight. And he did, and he he said, so

94
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,800
Speaker 2: listen to this. So on September twenty second, Willie Mays

95
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:08,480
Speaker 2: is batting three forty two. Whitey's batting three thirty eight.

96
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 2: White He finishes the season fourteen for twenty one. He

97
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,159
Speaker 2: bats six sixty seven.

98
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 4: Oh my god.

99
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 2: Willie Mays goes ten for twenty one, bats four to

100
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 2: seventy six to finish the season. So Whitey beats him

101
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 2: by three percentage points. And this is the quote from

102
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 2: Willy Mays. He said, uh, I only hit twenty nine

103
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 2: home runs that year. I should have hit more, but

104
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,599
Speaker 2: I was trying to win the batting championship to show

105
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,919
Speaker 2: people I could do everything. And he called white he

106
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:37,960
Speaker 2: goes Richard. He called him Richard. I guess he goes,

107
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 2: Richard must have looked in the paper and saw me

108
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,279
Speaker 2: pretty close. A guy called me the next day after

109
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,159
Speaker 2: the season in and said, guess what, Willy, I said,

110
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 2: what's going on? He said, Richard bunted four times to

111
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,799
Speaker 2: beat you. So I called him up and said, hey, man, what's.

112
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 5: Wrong with you?

113
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 2: It's wing the bat. It's late in the season. Nobody's

114
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 2: worried about them. Well, and then Willy, I wrote in

115
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 2: the book, Willy laughed about it and said, I really

116
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 2: like that guy. He was a great guy. So you know, yeah, finally,

117
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 2: I can't believe I remember I talked to Willie Mays

118
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 2: and he had a suite at eighteen or Oracle Park

119
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 2: and I somehow convinced giants pr to let me go

120
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:14,720
Speaker 2: up and talk to him for like twenty minutes break.

121
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 2: It was absolutely amazing, a total thrill. But anyway, so

122
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,600
Speaker 2: you want to see you want to see Trey Turner

123
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 2: come back, get his timing down, most importantly, be healthy,

124
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,840
Speaker 2: maybe show that he can run at a decent speed,

125
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 2: and then he'll have the bye week to continue to

126
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,840
Speaker 2: recover and last and all that put him back in

127
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 2: the top of the lineup. That is huge. That is absolutely.

128
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 4: I like it.

129
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 2: I dig it.

130
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 1: So so my thought is this, I'd really like to

131
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:47,559
Speaker 1: see somebody step up to be able to really pitch

132
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 1: effectively in the seventh and eighth inning before Juwan Duran's.

133
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 6: Got to pitch, and I haven't seen that. Now, Matt

134
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,159
Speaker 6: Strom's thrown okay, and it's done.

135
00:06:59,040 --> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 4: A nice job.

136
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:00,840
Speaker 2: This year has been very good.

137
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:03,680
Speaker 6: I think that, you know, they've had a lot of

138
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 6: success out of Tanner Banks. I don't know that he's

139
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 6: the guy that you want to necessarily hand the ball

140
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 6: to in the eighth inning to try to close things out.

141
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 6: I don't want them to have to go to Juan

142
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 6: Douran for two innings in the eighth and ninth and

143
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 6: so Robertson's done a nice job, but you know, Kirkering

144
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 6: struggled a little bit. Somebody's gonna have to step forward.

145
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 6: Could it be a guy I don't know, Walker.

146
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 2: Buehler, Could it be him?

147
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:33,559
Speaker 4: Could it be somebody else?

148
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 5: I just want to see somebody that.

149
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 6: I have a little bit more confidence in for Rob

150
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 6: Thompson's purposes, because if they have to use Juan Douran

151
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 6: in the eighth pretty much every game, that might be rough.

152
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 6: He's gonna have to do some mix in the match,

153
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 6: and you gotta get you know, those guys they come

154
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 6: in certain times in the in the inning, they got

155
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 6: to get three outs. It's gonna be really interesting. And

156
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:02,239
Speaker 6: they're gonna have to almost forces those three left handers

157
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 6: in the rotation to go deep. So I want to

158
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 6: see somebody step forward. I don't know who that's gonna be.

159
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,520
Speaker 2: But that's my thought process going into this thing.

160
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 3: You need to what you're saying is you need a

161
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 3: Ryan Madison two thousand and eight. Correct, Correct, He was

162
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 3: huge difference maker on that team.

163
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 2: His emergence, Oh he was, he was.

164
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 4: They had others, They had others.

165
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, JC pitched great. You know, JC was tremendous.

166
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 2: Scott Air was tremendous. I mean, you had that was

167
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:33,320
Speaker 2: a get be just one guy.

168
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 7: You gotta have several guys because I don't know that

169
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 7: those those left handers are going to be able to

170
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 7: go seven innings every time.

171
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 3: Madson in the eighth became an assassin and that was

172
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 3: such a difference maker on the eight Phillies down the stretch.

173
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 3: And it'so October, no doubt. Hey, that was first pitch

179
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:13,800

00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:28,439
Speaker 2: two piece of biscuit.

205
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:30,440

Speaker 2: all time you know, all time good guys. It's you know,

208
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:39,640
Speaker 2: we had a blast talking with him. So yeah, so

209
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 2: we we have to do Manco Manco. They please didn't

210
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 2: play on Monday, so it still works. It's time for

211
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:54,240

213
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 2: They Billy's had a three and three road trip started great.

214
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 2: It was a lot of fun. They clinched the NLST

215
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 2: last Monday. Tuesday, they had a big win against the Dodgers.

216

Speaker 2: They won Friday night in Arizona. Who do you guys

217
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 2: have for your manco and Manco best week. Who Ruben,

218
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:20,240
Speaker 2: why don't you start because I started with Jim earlier.

219
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I'm just gonna give a shout out

220
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:27,199
Speaker 1: to the back half of the of the lineup. I

221
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,200
Speaker 1: think the guys in the bottom half of the lineup

222
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:30,760
Speaker 1: has really really stepped up.

223
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 2: You know.

224
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:35,320
Speaker 1: It gotten to the point where, you know, the team

225
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 1: was relying on Kyle, Schwarber and Turner to do everything,

226
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 1: and it has been pretty cool to watch marsh do

227
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 1: what he's doing lately, stop stepping it forward. It was

228
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:51,559
Speaker 1: nice to see Alec Boem do what he did at

229
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,319
Speaker 1: the end of that series. He wasn't playing obviously in

230
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 1: LA but that's nice.

231
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,200
Speaker 6: To see him, you know, add on a little bit,

232
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:02,320
Speaker 6: you were getting some stuff from Kepler. Even Cassianos was

233
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,199
Speaker 6: was adding, you know something in that the back end

234
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 6: of that lineup, and I think that's a really important piece.

235
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 6: It's finally gotten to the point where the depth that

236
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 6: they thought in their lineup was that they thought that

237
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 6: they had in the beginning of the season has started

238
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:23,319
Speaker 6: to come to fruition. And it makes this a pretty

239
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:25,680
Speaker 6: damn potent lineup because now you don't have to.

240
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:27,680
Speaker 2: Rely on the one through four guys.

241
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 1: You know, you start thinking about what's going on in

242
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:32,680
Speaker 1: the back end, and that makes it.

243
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,200
Speaker 2: Really, really difficult for a picture.

244
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 6: He thinks he's got a breather at the end, but

245
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 6: those guys are coming up with some big base hits.

246
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 6: Otto Kemp's adding on, Weston Wilson's adding on, You're getting

247
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 6: contributions from the deeper part of the lineup, and that's huge.

248
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,440
Speaker 3: It's happening at the really most important time of the

249
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:51,040
Speaker 3: season too.

250
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:52,680
Speaker 4: Nothing.

251
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:56,040
Speaker 3: I mean, you get a nice long lineup going into October.

252
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,679
Speaker 3: That's a great thing. So I'm actually going to look

253
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 3: at the top of the lineup for my man CO

254
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 3: and MANCO best of the Week. Todd, you mentioned Trey

255
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 3: Turner is going to be back here soon, go back

256
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 3: into the leadoff hole. But a hat tip to and

257
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 3: a slice of the pizza two Harrison Bader for the

258
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 3: job he has done in the leadoff hole.

259
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 4: In Trey Turner's absence.

260
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 3: Twelve games in the leadoff hole, team is eight and four.

261
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 3: That is the most important statistic of all. But you know,

262
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 3: in that time, in those twelve games, he said three

263
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:30,600
Speaker 3: forty five three ninety on base nine to seventeen ops

264
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,320
Speaker 3: eight extra base hits in forty four games since joining

265
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 3: the Phillies, Beta is three twenty nine with an eight

266
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 3: ninety nine ops, eleven doubles, a triple, and five home runs.

267
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 4: Been a heck of an acquisition.

268
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 3: We probably could have given him a piece of the

269
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:51,079
Speaker 3: Manco and Manco pie almost any week in the last

270
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:54,840
Speaker 3: couple months, and he gets one tonight. And he's from

271
00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 3: New York City, so I'm sure he knows what good

272
00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 3: pizza is.

273
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 4: No doubt, that's right.

274
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 2: I think actually had somebody in the in the YouTube

275
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 2: comments one week we didn't pick Bears, Like, how could

276
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:08,079
Speaker 2: he not pick Baiers as a Manco? So he finally

277
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:11,040
Speaker 2: gets his due. I'll tell you what, I love watching

278
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 2: that guy play center field. He plays with the flare

279
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,000
Speaker 2: out there a ball, you know, there'll be a ball

280
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 2: in the gap, and he kind of back pedals over

281
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 2: to it like he's doing I mean, it's it's great.

282
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 2: I think it's so cool. And you know what a

283
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 2: difference he's made defensively as well, just just tremendous. So

284
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 2: I'm picking a guy that played I think he only

285
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 2: played once on this entire road trip, and that was

286
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,800
Speaker 2: Raphael Marshawn and I wanted to shout him, give him

287
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 2: a shout out because of that really awesome go ahead,

288
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 2: game winning home run in the ninth inning on last

289
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 2: Tuesday night at Dodger Stadium. Just a cool moment for him.

290
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 2: The ball just hits the top lip of the fence

291
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 2: and it skips into the stands and talking to him

292
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 2: after the game, and he had such a huge smile

293
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 2: on his face. As a guy that does not play

294
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 2: a lot, obviously behind JT. Real Muto, So you know

295
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 2: how hard it is to to get your to get

296
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,200
Speaker 2: your timing and the rhythm at the plate. I mean,

297
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:12,040
Speaker 2: it's just it's just damn near impossible when you're not playing.

298
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 2: But he's made the most of his opportunities. He's played

299
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 2: pretty well in that spot. And just a really fun game.

300
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 2: You know, remember Otani hit that home run in the

301
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 2: bottom of the eighth, the Dodgers scored another run on

302
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:25,240
Speaker 2: a sack fly to tie it, and there comes Raphaele

303
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 2: Marshan and it's the big bomb. And yeah, again he

304
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 2: was great talking about it after the game. So much fun.

305
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 2: So I want to give him a shout out. Do

306
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 2: you seldom used backup catcher Marsan.

307
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 6: Hey, let me if I can add on to that, Todd.

308
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 10: I think I love that moment for him, you know,

309
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 10: being a bench player myself, to be able to contribute

310
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 10: in such a huge game, like a huge game, like

311
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 10: one of the biggest games in the season.

312
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 1: And to be able to do that to help that

313
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 1: w and and you know, you got to think about it.

314
00:15:57,680 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 1: This is a guy who replaced probably the most popular

315
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 1: player on the on the team, Garrett Stubbs, and he's

316
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 1: actually done a really really nice job back there behind

317
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 1: the plate, calling games, working hard, putting himself in a

318
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 1: position to work with his pitcher as well.

319
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 2: You know, he's a sort of one one.

320
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 4: Of those again, you need everybody to contribute, and he's.

321
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 7: Done a really nice job of being a backup catcher

322
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:26,040
Speaker 7: to a guy that you know that.

323
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 4: Doesn't allow you to play too much.

324
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 3: And you know, I mean, yeah, and the thumbs up

325
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 3: to Stubbs too, because I did a story on March

326
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 3: on in spring training where I mean, talk to him

327
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 3: about Wow, he's been in the organization ten years.

328
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 4: I remember when they signed him, he was sixteen.

329
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 3: He's been in the organization ten years, and he was

330
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 3: talking about how he learned English by watching Grey's Anatomy.

331
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 3: He loves Gray's Anatomy reruns, and he loves Kevin Hart's humor,

332
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 3: and that's how he learned English. But he also mentioned

333
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 3: how helpful Garrett Stubbs has been. You know, some town

334
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 3: wants to back mentoring him a little bit, helping him,

335
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 3: you know, with game calling and setting up hitters and

336
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,200
Speaker 3: relating to pitchers. So I mean that shows what a

337
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:13,520
Speaker 3: big man Garrett Stubbs is to help basically groom your successors.

338
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 4: So that tandem is two class guys.

339
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 2: Also, no doubt about it. A lot of stuff going

383
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:28,399
Speaker 2: like David Lee Roth doing concerts and stuff. It's it's

384
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 2: it's he's not jumping up and down doing the splits

385
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 2: in the in the air. Let's put it that way.

386
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 1: It's kind of like if someone did tell me that

387
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 1: air supplies actually outstanding.

388
00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:41,280
Speaker 2: Their voices are still, you know, I love it.

389
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,160
Speaker 3: In the background, they have a lot of backup singers

390
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:48,520
Speaker 3: in the shade, like in the shadows.

391
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:52,399
Speaker 2: Guys, want to ask you pick your brains on a

392
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,280
Speaker 2: couple of one thing real quick is Aaron Nola. On Saturday,

393
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 2: he gave up four runs and five and two thirds

394
00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:01,040
Speaker 2: innings that the first inning run probably wouldn't have scored

395
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:04,359
Speaker 2: a bow, went back down, dropped the pop up and

396
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 2: shallow left field. He probably should have made that play

397
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:08,480
Speaker 2: or you know how long we should have been caught

398
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:12,920
Speaker 2: by Bryson stop right there you go? Yeah, so, and.

399
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:14,800
Speaker 1: That's the only thing that Bryson Stott has not done

400
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:16,359
Speaker 1: well in short because he has been.

401
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 2: Has been one of the slices. He could have been

402
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:23,639
Speaker 2: one of the slices. You're right, I mean defense, are

403
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:26,800
Speaker 2: you kidding? Yeah? He has played a good shortstop there

404
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 2: he had. He hasn't he hasn't missed a beat. Uh Nola.

405
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,160
Speaker 2: Then in the next four innings gives up one run

406
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 2: and then he starts a six he gives up a

407
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 2: couple of doubles. And so I'm wondering if if he

408
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 2: ends up being the fourth starter, if the Phillies get

409
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 2: to the n l D n l C s where

410
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:47,240
Speaker 2: you know, and and Aaron Nola is the number four starter,

411
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,399
Speaker 2: do they even let him get to that point of

412
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:52,200
Speaker 2: the sixth inning?

413
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:53,160
Speaker 4: You know.

414
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 2: A much right? Like how short do you go?

415
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:03,439
Speaker 4: Super short? We've seen it. He's losing it. He's losing

416
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:05,880
Speaker 4: it fast. I don't think it's the endurance.

417
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 6: I don't know if it's because he's hasn't been you know,

418
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,760
Speaker 6: hasn't had the indoors had been built up.

419
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,240
Speaker 1: I'm not sure what's going on. Maybe he's starting to

420
00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 1: run out of bullets. I mean that's a possibility too,

421
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,480
Speaker 1: just overall. But but he loses it pretty fast.

422
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 5: But he can give me some innings.

423
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:24,320
Speaker 7: He can give us some quality innings.

424
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:25,840
Speaker 2: I think it's just going to be a short one.

425
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:30,520
Speaker 3: Yes, we've seen it a few starts now where he

426
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 3: just boom fifth to sixth inning, I mean fifth inning,

427
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,040
Speaker 3: he starts to wabble. Sixth inning, he gets beat up.

428
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:37,640
Speaker 3: I mean, you've got to get him out of there

429
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,680
Speaker 3: before that happens. And I think, Rob Will I'm looking

430
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,639
Speaker 3: at Nolah, It's like, you know, you get to start,

431
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 3: go out and give me three good ones and then

432
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:47,960
Speaker 3: I'm getting you out of there, and then Walker Bull

433
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:49,440
Speaker 3: is going to give me three good ones and I'm

434
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:50,640
Speaker 3: going to figure it out from there.

435
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:52,400
Speaker 4: I totally agree.

436
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:55,119
Speaker 2: I feel the same way. You don't even let him

437
00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,920
Speaker 2: get to the point where he starts, you know, I

438
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:01,399
Speaker 2: I I was remember Charlie Manuel saying we took him

439
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 2: out in a good part of the game, you know,

440
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 2: like that a good place. Yeah, get third, fourth inning,

441
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:08,360
Speaker 2: and then you get him out of there, like even

442
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:11,359
Speaker 2: if it's four scoreless innings, two hits, and he looks

443
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 2: like I'll be like, oh, you know what we're gonna

444
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 2: It's kind of at that point I feel like, yeah.

445
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:19,199
Speaker 1: Not only that, but I think that they'll have some

446
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:19,879
Speaker 1: people ready.

447
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,080
Speaker 6: I mean, especially you have to go to like the

448
00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:24,800
Speaker 6: Walker Buellers of the world, or maybe even you know,

449
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:27,760
Speaker 6: Taiwan Walker, whoever it is. If it's not a guy

450
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 6: who's like accustomed to being out of the bullpen, he

451
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 6: may start warming up in like the second inning. He

452
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,040
Speaker 6: may you know, and hey, this is not like we're

453
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 6: not trying to kill Aaron Nola, but this is about

454
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:41,639
Speaker 6: winning baseball games and making sure that you know, it

455
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 6: doesn't unravel quickly.

456
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 3: And he knows that he will not be in front

457
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 3: of he will not be in front of his locker

458
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:50,879
Speaker 3: whoe is me? After the game, he will be in

459
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 3: front of his lockers saying, uh, you know, whatever, the

460
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:55,280
Speaker 3: skipper decides, we're here.

461
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 4: To win a ring, and I'm I'm on board.

462
00:22:58,280 --> 00:22:59,920
Speaker 1: I'm sure he could have want to pitch six or

463
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:00,480
Speaker 1: have an innings.

464
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:02,119
Speaker 4: Of course he does. I don't want him if he

465
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:03,800
Speaker 4: does he want to do, because that's who he is.

466
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 3: I don't want a guy who wants to but he's

467
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:10,200
Speaker 3: gonna understand. Guy's a very smart guy.

468
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:13,680
Speaker 2: And a pro and a pros pro total total pro.

469
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:14,240
Speaker 6: Uh.

470
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 2: You guys touched on this earlier, Alec Boom you slide it,

471
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,679
Speaker 2: and Rob said, after Sunday's game he thinks that. He's like, well,

472
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 2: I'm gonna I guess I'm gonna have to move him up.

473
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 2: So it's funny because after I think it was after

474
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:29,359
Speaker 2: Friday's game, asked him about Boom and I said, you know,

475
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 2: can you think you can move him up with the

476
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:32,159
Speaker 2: cleanup spot or something? He's like, oh, you know, j

477
00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:34,160
Speaker 2: T has been pretty good there. Then after the game

478
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:35,679
Speaker 2: on Sunday he's like, I think I man have to

479
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:39,800
Speaker 2: move him up. So those three right, he's he's your

480
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,640
Speaker 2: cleanup hitter. And then what you have Marsh hit fifth,

481
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 2: Bader hit sixth. When I'm talking about when trade Trey returns, well,

482
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:48,720
Speaker 2: how do you guys see the bottom half of that lineup?

483
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:50,680
Speaker 2: What's the best way to set up the bottom hat

484
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 2: It's a great cup lineup.

485
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,760
Speaker 6: I mean I would the left handed bet Oh Marsh

486
00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,160
Speaker 6: has to hit right behind him, Mark, that's what rights.

487
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,159
Speaker 7: I think mar absolutely as hit behind him, and I

488
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 7: think Bater hits right behind that guy.

489
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, listen, that's that's that's how you got it.

490
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 1: That's how the other the other idea that I had

491
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:12,919
Speaker 1: was to put Beader in the four hole. He's been

492
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,640
Speaker 1: swinging the bat that well, and I think that that's

493
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,760
Speaker 1: you know, it would be cool to actually have Rob

494
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:23,520
Speaker 1: have a choice between Bader or Bomb, because you know,

495
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 1: you need to right and a bat to protect that

496
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,680
Speaker 1: freaking those two lefties man right right.

497
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:32,160
Speaker 2: That would be interesting. Yeah, I think I think Rob

498
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,280
Speaker 2: was asked about that. Maybe Baiter hitting clean up this week,

499
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:37,040
Speaker 2: and I can't remember if I think he was. I

500
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 2: can't remember if he was or not, But uh, there's

501
00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:42,399
Speaker 2: they got some options there for sure, especially Bomb swinging

502
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 2: good bats.

503
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:46,440
Speaker 5: So does something crazier happen and they split those two

504
00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:50,399
Speaker 5: left handers if there's a left handed pitcher, does it

505
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,879
Speaker 5: go crazy that crazy where you go where you go

506
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:57,000
Speaker 5: Baiter in there or Boom in there in the three.

507
00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,240
Speaker 4: Slot and again and.

508
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:00,120
Speaker 6: Then either.

509
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:08,520
Speaker 5: Either you know, Superman in the four hoole or you

510
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 5: know Schwarber in the in the four hole.

511
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 2: I don't know, it's something.

512
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,120
Speaker 4: Listen, it's a good problem to have. I think they're

513
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:15,080
Speaker 4: still going to go back.

514
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:19,080
Speaker 2: To back, but you know, you just never know.

515
00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:21,520
Speaker 4: It's it's a good problem to have.

516
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:25,080
Speaker 7: I love the fact I hope both those guys, those

517
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:26,440
Speaker 7: both those right handers are.

518
00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 6: Swinging a bat well because those guys are either ititting

519
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 6: two and three or two and four, but likely two

520
00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:34,439
Speaker 6: and three. And if he got some depth thills right

521
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 6: now in Batsman, you're loving it.

522
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:40,760
Speaker 3: I think it's I don't see Rob's being Rob's personality

523
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:43,399
Speaker 3: to make a drastic change. With Schwarber and Harper, I

524
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 3: think they're going to be kind of right where they've

525
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 3: prospered this season. Especially Schwarber hitting in front of Harper,

526
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:54,480
Speaker 3: it's it's been a it's been a big boon for him.

527
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 3: He's going to figure out a way to make sure

528
00:25:56,359 --> 00:26:02,880
Speaker 3: Harper gets some pitches in October and Bona one of them. Uh,

529
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:04,840
Speaker 3: you know, it's an important role.

530
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 2: So the last thing, guys Phillies magic number to clinch

531
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:15,239
Speaker 2: the bias two. So the way it lines up, they

532
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:18,120
Speaker 2: would play the number three or the number six seed

533
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 2: winner in the NL Wildcard Series, the number three seed

534
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:22,679
Speaker 2: would be the Dodgers, so obviously whoever they play is

535
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,080
Speaker 2: gonna be the heavy favorite. We don't know who the

536
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:27,359
Speaker 2: number six seed is going to be. As of today,

537
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:31,359
Speaker 2: the Reds and Mets are tied, but the Reds have

538
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:34,920
Speaker 2: the tiebreaker and then the Diamondbacks are game behind them.

539
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 2: Fangrafts gave their postseason odds Mets fifty one point nine percent,

540
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 2: Reds forty two point one percent, Diamondbacks five point seven percent.

541
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:47,800
Speaker 2: Who do you think it's going to be? The hard, fading,

542
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 2: gagging Mets, choking Mets.

543
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:56,399
Speaker 4: What are the schedules, Serry Francona.

544
00:26:56,720 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 2: So the schedules here you go. Mets finish on the road,

545
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:04,479
Speaker 2: all six games at Cubs at Marlins, Reds three at

546
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:07,240
Speaker 2: home this week against the Pirates, and then they finished

547
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:12,840
Speaker 2: three in Milwaukee, Diamondbacks home, three, Dodgers on the road

548
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:14,840
Speaker 2: against the Podres.

549
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:18,399
Speaker 4: I could see the fighting Tito Francona's getting in there.

550
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:22,200
Speaker 6: I see the frank Conas too, But I think that.

551
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:28,640
Speaker 1: Strangely, I do believe that the Mets being away from

552
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 1: home is better for them because their asses are gonna

553
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 1: be tight at home. If they were at home, because

554
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,119
Speaker 1: the fans are gonna be nervous as well, much like

555
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:39,960
Speaker 1: in Philadelpia would be nervous.

556
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, there are times the home field works against you

557
00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 3: because the anxiety and the pressure.

558
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:47,439
Speaker 1: I think that they're gonna I think they're gonna squeeze

559
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 1: in there.

560
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 2: I don't I don't hope that it happens, but you

561
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 2: know whatever, Listen, the Phillies.

562
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:54,399
Speaker 6: Doesn't matter who the Phillies play, because the Phillies have

563
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:55,040
Speaker 6: to play well.

564
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:59,520
Speaker 7: Okay, it doesn't matter who it could be that twenty

565
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:01,360
Speaker 7: seven year you gotta beat them.

566
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:02,959
Speaker 2: Great, you gotta beat them.

567
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:05,119
Speaker 1: And you're hoping that the team that you that you

568
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,680
Speaker 1: play is not playing like their best baseball, that they're

569
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:11,440
Speaker 1: going crazy and playing great, because that makes me nervous.

570
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:16,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's I I kind of feel the way you feel, Ruben.

571
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:18,560
Speaker 2: For some weird reason, I think the Mets are gonna

572
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 2: they're gonna get in they're being so terrible. But yeah,

573
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:24,159
Speaker 2: maybe they get away from home and they kind of

574
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,320
Speaker 2: relax and because that tension isn't real. I mean, I

575
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:31,400
Speaker 2: remember the tension Game seven of the twenty twenty three NLCS.

576
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:35,160
Speaker 2: I mean that those fans were so wound tight early

577
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 2: in that game, and then they got behind Game five

578
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 2: of the twenty eleven NLDS man that place is tight,

579
00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 2: so maybe it'll help the Mets out. So, uh guys,

580
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:52,920
Speaker 2: that was fun. We will be back later this week.

581
