Also, 9 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:39,440 Speaker 1: New York Post baseball column ist Ken David off with 10 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:44,159 Speaker 1: the labor negotiations between the owners and the players. That 11 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:47,200 Speaker 1: and much more. Let's get it kicked off with getting 12 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 1: robbed to lead off. It's getting robbed to keep him on. 13 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:56,320 Speaker 1: Rob's hot take on the three biggest stories in Major 14 00:00:56,360 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 1: League Baseball Number one. It took a while, but Major 15 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:06,760 Speaker 1: League Baseball has issued a statement about the social unrest 16 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,400 Speaker 1: after the death of George Floyd. The murder of George 17 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:16,759 Speaker 1: Floyd in Minneapolis, and bravo to Major League Baseball for 18 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:21,759 Speaker 1: including some stuff that to me is important in the message. 19 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 1: They just didn't say, Oh, what a terrible tragedy, and 20 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 1: we respect the police, and we we need to uh 21 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:34,680 Speaker 1: all be together. I think this was clear. I think 22 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:38,279 Speaker 1: it was honest, and I'm going to quote a piece 23 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: of the statement. Quote to be clear, our game has 24 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: zero tolerance for racism and racial injustice. The reality that 25 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 1: the black community lives in fear or anxiety over racial discrimination, prejudice, 26 00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: or violence is unacceptable. End quote. Bravo for acknowledging what's 27 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 1: taking place in America. I expect this from Major League Baseball. 28 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 1: After all, it was major League Baseball that broke the 29 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,919 Speaker 1: color barrier in nineteen forty seven with Jackie Robinson. It's 30 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 1: a huge badge of honor, and I've come to expect 31 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: baseball to always take a leading position when it comes 32 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 1: to race in this country because, as we know, Jackie 33 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 1: Robinson and baseball changed America forever back in nineteen forty 34 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 1: seven when he played for the Brooklyn Dodgers. Bravo to 35 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 1: Baseball Number two. Some of the biggest sports stars have 36 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: spoken about the George Floyd murder in Minneapolis, and a 37 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,680 Speaker 1: lot of times, you know, we hear from the NFL players, 38 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: especially since Colin Kaepernick started the movement against police brutality, 39 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 1: and we hear from NBA players like Lebron James and 40 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 1: other big stars, but we're also hearing from baseball stars. 41 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:12,839 Speaker 1: And Andrew McCutcheon, the Philadelphia Phillies outfielder, joined in and 42 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,679 Speaker 1: called for police officers to be held accountable for their 43 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: criminal actions, as well as to an end of qualified 44 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 1: and mute immunity. And and that's really what it's about, 45 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 1: that people be held accountable. I don't I don't understand 46 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: why people don't get this idea. I still believe at 47 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 1: this point that had those police officers all been arrested 48 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:45,119 Speaker 1: and charge, which they have been as of Tuesday now, 49 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 1: but had this happened in the beginning, when this first happened, 50 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 1: obviously the police fired them from the staff. So they've 51 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 1: done something wrong, they should have been arrested, and we 52 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: might just might have avoided the riots and the looting 53 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: in the burning that we've seen. But it's great to 54 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 1: hear some African American baseball players as well step to 55 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:11,119 Speaker 1: the podium and let their voices be heard. Number Three, 56 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 1: we now have Adam Under, a former Yankee prospect turned 57 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 1: opera singer and lawyer, and we want to get your 58 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 1: thoughts on the plight of the minor league ers considering 59 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 1: what's happened since the coronavirus has derailed the minor league season. Yeah, 60 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 1: you know, Rob, I, I you know, really felt bad 61 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:34,599 Speaker 1: about it, actually, um, since I heard about them reducing 62 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 1: the number of players that they were going to be 63 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 1: drafting this year. Um. Because frankly, um, you know, it 64 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 1: affects those guys quite a bit. I mean probably if 65 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 1: the situation were as it is now when I got drafted, 66 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 1: I never would have had the opportunity to play for 67 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:56,280 Speaker 1: the Yankees. And so a lot of guys who deserve 68 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 1: to get a chance to play professional baseball aren't gonna 69 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: at that opportunity. And maybe this year was there was 70 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 1: there last shot. And it kind of affects you for 71 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: the rest of your life because you know, I played 72 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 1: for the Yankees, I played for the Rockies. I didn't 73 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 1: make it to the major leagues. I didn't even go 74 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 1: that far in the minor leagues. But I'll tell you 75 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:20,160 Speaker 1: that every job that I've ever gone on, either an 76 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:24,359 Speaker 1: interview or or getting the job or being there or 77 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:29,039 Speaker 1: getting into law school, everyone was always impressed. And the 78 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: first thing they ever asked me about was my experience 79 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 1: playing for the Yankees in the minor leagues. So not 80 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 1: only is it an opportunity for all these young athletes 81 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,359 Speaker 1: to get a chance to play pro ball, They're not 82 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: going to have the chance if they don't make it 83 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 1: to have the fact that they played pro ball on 84 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 1: their resume, which is something that looks good and helps 85 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 1: you for the rest of your life. So frankly, I 86 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 1: really feel bad for these guys and I and I 87 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 1: feel bad for the opportunity, um, you know that's being 88 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: lost here for them. Here comes the big interview. Listen, 89 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 1: it's so good. Well, first of all, thanks for having me, guys, 90 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:15,360 Speaker 1: And these times are very difficult for all of us. 91 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 1: And and I understand the times that we're in right now. 92 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 1: And I would say to this to the people, is 93 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 1: I feel the same way. I'm tired. You know, I'm tired, uh, 94 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: police brutality. I'm tired of what's happening um to African Americans. 95 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 1: And you know, just since was killing unnecessary, unacceptable? Um, 96 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,840 Speaker 1: it's just it needs to stop. Something needs to change. 97 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 1: And I think as we sit here and we watch 98 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: this younger generation as they rallied together and they go out, 99 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: they marched the protests for a change, and it's something 100 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,040 Speaker 1: that we didn't have in the times that we were 101 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 1: in because we didn't have social media, we didn't have 102 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,119 Speaker 1: the Internet like they do and and all the things 103 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 1: in a different outlets. They have to be able to 104 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 1: gather themselves together. I think if we would have had 105 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,840 Speaker 1: those growing up, we would have gathered ourselves together too, 106 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: and probably did the same thing in March to say, hey, 107 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 1: it's time for a change in this country. We no 108 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: longer could just uh sit back and accept you know 109 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 1: what has happened uh to black people. You know, it's 110 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: a shame. You know that it continues to happen in 111 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 1: this day that we're living here. And you know, so 112 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: many went on before us. You know, um once Luther King, 113 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 1: you know what he stood for and he stood you know, 114 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 1: him standing for peace, you know, and and all that 115 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: they had to suffer through Jackie Robinson and you know, 116 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 1: the first of you know, crossing the line. And every 117 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 1: black athlete that put on the uniform of baseball uniform 118 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 1: don't have a history. I don't even know the history 119 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: of why they played baseball. It's because of Jackie Robinson 120 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 1: opened the door for every person of a color, and 121 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 1: that's latinos to every person of color. If it wasn't 122 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: for Jackie Robinson, you know, we wouldn't have never been able. 123 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 1: I would never be Dowall struggle and made elite baseball players. 124 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 1: So you know, we need to go back and you know, 125 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 1: really educate people about, you know the history of what's 126 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: really been going on for a very long time and 127 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: where we at right now. And you know, we're at 128 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: a place where the society is just exploded, you know, 129 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 1: with with the coronavirus and and and now this, you know, 130 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 1: the killing of George, you know, Floyd. You know, it's 131 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 1: just it's it's enough. You know, people have had enough. 132 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 1: And I understand it straw very easily, you know, and 133 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: I can hear it in your voice about the frustration, 134 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 1: the anger and just about right and wrong. And yet 135 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 1: there are so many people, even many star black athletes, 136 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: who will not speak out against this. And when you 137 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 1: see that, I get it. Some people have platforms and 138 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: situation straw where they can help to make change. We 139 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,959 Speaker 1: saw what happened to Colin Kaepernick when he was trying 140 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: to bring attention to this epidemic four years ago, and 141 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 1: what was done to him, is livelihood shun by the NFL. 142 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 1: So how important is it for people who have those 143 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:12,680 Speaker 1: platforms where people look up to you, guys as as 144 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 1: role models and heroes to speak out when when you 145 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 1: see something wrong in front of you, Well, it's very 146 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: important to speak out. I mean, it's time to speak out. 147 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 1: You know, these guys don't understand a lot of them 148 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: to understanding how such tremendous platform and and nobody, nobody's 149 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 1: gonna come against you. You're gonna take You're gonna have 150 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:33,960 Speaker 1: some haters, you know that's gonna have something to say. 151 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:37,080 Speaker 1: So what you know, what difference doesn't make, you know, 152 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 1: and they've been hating for so long, you know, and 153 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: I think about it, you know, being who I was, 154 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 1: you know, when I was playing in the days I 155 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 1: was playing, and of course, you know, I was more 156 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:49,559 Speaker 1: like the Michael Jordan's baseball in the eighties, you know, 157 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 1: been on you know, seven sports illustrators, and you know 158 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 1: I used to speak out, you know, and people used 159 00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 1: to always have something negative to say back. But I 160 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 1: really didn't air you know, for what what people had 161 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 1: to say. I mean, I was the one that had 162 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 1: to take the criticism, you know, and I didn't play 163 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 1: well as being black, and boo, you're making them a 164 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 1: lot of money, but your white players are making a 165 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 1: lot of money too, and they struggle too, you know. 166 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 1: And then I had to deal with that. I had 167 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: to face that. So when when I look back and 168 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 1: and look back over my career and look at that 169 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 1: whole wold time of stuff that I went through, and 170 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 1: and saying some of some of the same things happened 171 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 1: to the white place, but they never got exposed like 172 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: I did, you know, from the troubles I had and 173 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: myself and doctor, and there were plenty other athletes that 174 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 1: were doing a lot of the same things that had problems, 175 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 1: but they would sweep them under the rug, and they 176 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 1: would send them to treatment and say, oh, they have 177 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 1: pain pill problems, you know, and stuff like that, when 178 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 1: they when they had real problems. And that I knew 179 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,719 Speaker 1: because I'm in the circle of sports. So it's been 180 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 1: going on forever, and these players today to have platforms 181 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: speak out. Don't be afraid use your platform to speak out, 182 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: because that's the only way change is gonna come about. 183 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 1: Change is never gonna come about if we don't start 184 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,439 Speaker 1: speaking out. I mean, we didn't have the We didn't 185 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,200 Speaker 1: have the platform that you may have today and the 186 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 1: social media outlet that you have to day where you 187 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 1: can reach so many people, uh, to speak out about 188 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,560 Speaker 1: you know what times you were in It's real, it's 189 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: been going on forever. It's never gonna change. You're gonna 190 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: still be that same color player they look at regardless 191 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,560 Speaker 1: of how well you do. When you take the uniform 192 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 1: off and it's over, it's over. You're no longer uh, 193 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 1: that guy that's making money and bringing money in for them. 194 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 1: So they're gonna treat you different. Yeah, they're gonna love you, 195 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: but still at the same time, if you can't bring 196 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 1: the money in anymore because of your performers is not there. 197 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: So you use your platform when you have a chance, 198 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 1: because one day it will be over. And straw I 199 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: want to make this point because this is this is 200 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 1: what This is the part that people don't realize. Here's 201 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 1: the difference and what he's talking about. This is not 202 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 1: making excuses for anybody, Okay, but when Mickey Mantle played 203 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 1: for the Yankees and went out and was drunk and 204 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:57,679 Speaker 1: was pulled over, there was not one cop in New 205 00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 1: York who was going to arrest Mickey Mantle and bring 206 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 1: him into the police station. They would drive Mickey mental home. 207 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:09,360 Speaker 1: Darryl am I right that that that's that's what was 208 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 1: done for those guys during that time. They wouldn't drive 209 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:17,599 Speaker 1: Dale Strawberry home. They take they take them to the precinct. 210 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 1: That's the difference. That's what went over that. That is 211 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 1: the difference with the police. And you know it is this. 212 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:26,840 Speaker 1: It's the color of your skin is different, you know, 213 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:30,439 Speaker 1: and and you face a lot of more challenges. You 214 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 1: when you're out there and um, you are drinking or 215 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 1: whatever and you get pulled over. The percentage of you 216 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 1: and them is totally different. The percentage of you is 217 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 1: really high that you're gonna get locked up and it's 218 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 1: gonna hit. It's gonna hit the news, it's gonna hit 219 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:47,839 Speaker 1: the eight pet of the wire. You know, it's gonna 220 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 1: be on that. Uh. That's just the way it is. 221 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I could speak from my own experiences and 222 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,679 Speaker 1: living in this life at such a high level and 223 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: still you know, achieving things and being successful, but that 224 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 1: same paint at the same time, guys, I one thing 225 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 1: I never forgot that I'm black. There is straw right there. 226 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:12,320 Speaker 1: That's that's the nail right there. It's time for the 227 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 1: pocket protector central the analytic numbers you need to know? Well, 228 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:22,720 Speaker 1: maybe Anthony Masterson is his name, b S analytics is 229 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,199 Speaker 1: his game. What do you got from me, Anthony rob 230 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 1: Today we're gonna talk about plate discipline, specifically hitters that 231 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: chase pitches out of the strike zone. Now, are friends 232 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 1: of fangrass about the number of metrics on plate discipline 233 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 1: that helped tell the story of something we could all 234 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,560 Speaker 1: use a little of these days. Patients Now, starting with 235 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:42,439 Speaker 1: O swing percentage tells us which batters are most of 236 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,199 Speaker 1: depth at laying up pitches outside the strike zone. O 237 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: swing outside? Get it? Now, what are the list of 238 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 1: players of the lowest O swing percentage? You can make 239 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 1: an All Star team? Last year the Astros Alex Bregman 240 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 1: let the legan swinging, and only eighteen point eight percent 241 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,560 Speaker 1: of pitches outside the strike zone those in the trash 242 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 1: cans bay have been involved. There now, behind Brigman is 243 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 1: underrated out the old Tommy fam some guy named Mike Trout, 244 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:08,640 Speaker 1: Joey Vado and Mookie Betts. But a low O swing 245 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 1: percentage isn't an automatic precursor to success. It mostly helps 246 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 1: with sustainable success. You can see a player with a 247 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 1: high number, I'm a pretty nice year. Take the White 248 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 1: Sox Tim Anderson last year, so when at forty five 249 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: two percent of pitches outside the struct zone, the fifth 250 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: highest market in baseball, and yet led the league with 251 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 1: a three thirty five batting average. Now, of course an 252 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 1: unsustainable batting average on balls and play might as something 253 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 1: to do with that. But does patients make you virtuous? Rob? 254 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 1: Not necessarily, but it at least puts you on the 255 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 1: right path. My man. Finally some knowledge I could use 256 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 1: to appreciate you, Anthony, and that ball is it was 257 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 1: a big week in the Big league? Is followed? Or 258 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 1: is it fair? And now here? Shadow League dot Com 259 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 1: MLB insider Jr. Gamble j R. It's been more than 260 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: a week since George Floyd lost his life to a 261 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:20,720 Speaker 1: cop in the streets of Minneapolis. Baseball has finally issued 262 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 1: a statement. Is it foul or is it fair? It's fair, Rob, 263 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 1: that's a fair ball. At first I thought it was found. 264 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: But over the last allies spoke to some high ranking 265 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 1: people in MLBPR and according to my sources, MLB allowed 266 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 1: three black executives to take the lead on this decision, 267 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 1: one of them being Corey Smith, Senior director of Diversity 268 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 1: and Inclusion for a Major League Baseball They boll didn't 269 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 1: want to jump into early, they say with the statement 270 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 1: as if they were the savior of the world, but 271 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 1: they felt strongly that they wanted to not just make 272 00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 1: a statement, but think of a course of action as well. 273 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 1: Is be able to back it up. Um. The seriousness 274 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 1: of the issue and the gravity of the moment wasn't 275 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:09,560 Speaker 1: lost on MLB, and the statement was comprised after days 276 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:14,080 Speaker 1: of conversation between Baseball's diversity heads as to the best 277 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 1: way to support George Floyd and genuinely express the leads 278 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 1: commitments to attacking the roots of these problems, which has 279 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: come through a wider way of diversity program that people 280 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 1: might not be too familiar with. Some grassroots to the 281 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 1: executive offices. Although it doesn't always show on the field, 282 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 1: they acknowledge the field that black people live in, and 283 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 1: they acknowledge the systemic racism in the statement, so I 284 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 1: will give baseball a path this con take out the 285 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 1: It's time for trash talk Twitter, Twitter, with your chance 286 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 1: to trash anyone or anything in Major League Baseball. This 287 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: tweet comes from Chaunty nineteen in Detroit. The NBA is 288 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 1: scheduled to return before baseball at this point. If this happens, 289 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 1: baseball is dead. They struggle with the younger fans. Now 290 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 1: they are going to cripple themselves if they don't get 291 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 1: it together. They need to return first for interest sake. 292 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 1: Thanks Chauncey.

When Rob was a 296 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 1: newspaper columnist, he lived by this motto, if I'm writing, 297 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:42,360 Speaker 1: I'm ripping. Let's bring in a writer and broadcaster older 298 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 1: new All right, let's welcome in one of the best 299 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:47,479 Speaker 1: baseball writers in the country. Ken David All from the 300 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:51,439 Speaker 1: New York Post. Ken, welcome to the podcast. Thanks for 301 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: having me inside man, appreciate you. You know that Let's 302 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 1: just start. The players came back to the owners with 303 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:03,919 Speaker 1: a hundred and fourteen games schedule where the World Series 304 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 1: Game seven will be playing on Christmas Day. I know 305 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 1: it wasn't that labor late in the year, and the 306 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 1: owners came back with maybe like a fifty game season. 307 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 1: What's going on here? Is it gonna get back to 308 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 1: the maybe eighty two games schedule? Is that what we're headed. 309 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 1: I think that's where we're headed, Robin. It's this fifty 310 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 1: game thing. It wasn't formally a counter proposal. It was 311 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: more of Rob Manford saying, hey, there is this other path, 312 00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: like I do have the right to do this, which 313 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 1: is not clear he does, but that's what he said, Like, 314 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,399 Speaker 1: I have the right to play a fifty games season 315 00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 1: and pay you guys, you're you're paraded salary. So that's 316 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:46,440 Speaker 1: where things stand. How about that? This two sides to this. 317 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 1: I get it. I understand what the union and we've 318 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:53,160 Speaker 1: had twenty six years of labor piece in baseball, which 319 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:55,439 Speaker 1: is a lot you know that, Ken, given the history 320 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 1: between owners and the union and the work stoppages and 321 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 1: the strike and thread of a lockout. So so it's 322 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,680 Speaker 1: been good for baseball. And I do see both sides. 323 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:09,119 Speaker 1: I'm not riding the fence. I understand players don't want 324 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:12,400 Speaker 1: to give up all that they fought for and sacrifice, 325 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: uh and just accepting whatever ever offer the owners throw out. 326 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,520 Speaker 1: But I also look at the owner's side and say 327 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: no fans, no parking, no concessions, uh, no stadium merchandise. 328 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,679 Speaker 1: It's a big hit financially as well. Where are you 329 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:30,800 Speaker 1: on this when you look at the two sides and 330 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:34,880 Speaker 1: both of their arguments. But then I look at it Robs. Yeah, 331 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,160 Speaker 1: of course we any of us with a symbol fall 332 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 1: of common sense can understand it. The owners are gonna 333 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: take a big revenue hit. But ultimately, then my opinion, 334 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 1: the owners have more to lose here in terms of 335 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 1: it's all about their franchise values. Right, That's that's why 336 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 1: you get into this game. It's an investment and you 337 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 1: buy your team at X dollars with the expectation that 338 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 1: whether it's uh in twenty or fifty years so now 339 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,439 Speaker 1: you can sell it at why dollars a far more so, 340 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:06,680 Speaker 1: what are they doing to their franchise guys if they 341 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 1: just don't have a season because of the losses that 342 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,919 Speaker 1: are going to incur during me the small sample of 343 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: one year. So I do think the owners have to 344 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:19,680 Speaker 1: give a little more than the players, who, by the way, 345 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:23,080 Speaker 1: they're the ones putting themselves in harm's way during a pandemic. 346 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,159 Speaker 1: All Right, Our guess is Ken David off Baseball Commas 347 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 1: for the New York Post here on Inside the Parker Can. 348 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:32,920 Speaker 1: The other part, though, is fans always tend to side 349 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 1: with owners over players, and I think there's a jealousy 350 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 1: factor when the guys playing a sport making millions of dollars. 351 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 1: What about the pr hit If there is no baseball 352 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:47,639 Speaker 1: and we're talking about eighteen months with no baseball while 353 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: other sports get played, how damage you could that be? 354 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,439 Speaker 1: I think it could be fatal of I think it 355 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:58,160 Speaker 1: would be absolutely massive. I mean the idea, as you said, 356 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 1: we're in a pandemic. Uh, the other NBA has its 357 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,160 Speaker 1: plan in place, the NHL has its plan in place, 358 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 1: you know, the NFL, I mean Roger Miguel doesn't care 359 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 1: ten guys dropped dead on the field. They're gonna keep going, right, So, 360 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:15,160 Speaker 1: so you know they're they're gonna keep going, and baseball 361 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:18,159 Speaker 1: is gonna sit on the sidelines because, uh, you know, 362 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:21,120 Speaker 1: because they couldn't cut a deal over dollars. I think 363 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 1: that would be insanely damaging, and that's why I refuse 364 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 1: to believe that that scenario will actually occur. I'm with you, 365 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 1: It's just it would be death. It really would be. 366 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 1: And I couldn't blame fans if they turned in those 367 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 1: to baseball, especially when you consider what people are going 368 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 1: through in the country. UH, furloughs, pay cuts, job losses, 369 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 1: record unemployment, can right. I just there will be no 370 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 1: way to be able to rationalize fighting over millions of 371 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 1: dollars and not playing. Uh. Lastly, where does baseball go 372 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,679 Speaker 1: from here? If they do get a deal? Do you 373 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: and no fans or at least in the beginning, Um, 374 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:09,119 Speaker 1: do you think uh, people will still have the same 375 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,359 Speaker 1: feeling for the sport. Will it be different or people 376 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 1: just so starved for a sporting event that that will 377 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 1: adapt and and it will be okay for this year? Well, Bob, 378 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:24,120 Speaker 1: I think look, just say eighty two games with deferred 379 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 1: sally for they get their proady to pay, but they 380 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:30,159 Speaker 1: have to defer the money. I think that's reasonable middle ground. 381 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:33,440 Speaker 1: Let's say they cut that deal. I think some fans 382 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,440 Speaker 1: are the ones who follow this this craft closely, will 383 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 1: be a little turned off by by what how they 384 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 1: got there. But I think more important is the way 385 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 1: the teams have behaved. UH. From really being thirsty about refunds. 386 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:49,399 Speaker 1: Many of these teams, you know, for the games that 387 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 1: are not going to be replay making fans jump through 388 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:54,760 Speaker 1: hoops to get refunds. That you're talking about, all the 389 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:58,160 Speaker 1: minor leaguers who have lost their job or at least 390 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,200 Speaker 1: lost their pay, the draft getting decimated as here the 391 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 1: amateur draft down to five rounds, and then many front 392 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:07,880 Speaker 1: office employees being let go or furloughed or having their 393 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 1: salaries because you're talking about things have damaged the game's 394 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 1: long term viability to see the neglect of the crops 395 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 1: if you will, right, And that's where I think the 396 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 1: real damage is going to kick in. Alright. His name 397 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 1: Ken david Off. Read him in the New York Post 398 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 1: dot com. One of the best baseball writers in the country. 399 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 1: Can we appreciate you, Bud? I appreciate you as a 400 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 1: human being robbed You're the best. Now it's time for 401 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 1: some diamond dust with wish TVs. Phil Sanchez. He played 402 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 1: baseball in college. Now here is MLB knowledge, Hey, rob 403 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,680 Speaker 1: Because of the coronavirus, this Here's Hall of Fame ceremonies 404 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,399 Speaker 1: have been canceled, but when next year rolls around. The 405 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:55,119 Speaker 1: class include Derrek Peter, Larry Walker, Ted Simmons, and Marvin Miller. 406 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:56,800 Speaker 1: But a guy who should be on that list, and 407 00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,640 Speaker 1: there's no doubt about it, Albert Bell. And here's why. 408 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 1: The perfect Hall of Fame candidate has a clear, outstanding 409 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:06,119 Speaker 1: peak to his career, and most candidates fall short of 410 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 1: said peak, but not Albert Bell. His peaks out through 411 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 1: the roof his career was cut short at the age 412 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 1: of thirty three because of injury. But from to nine 413 00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 1: average the line of three or eight forty one home 414 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 1: runs and one hundred and twenty seven RBI. That's an average, 415 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:28,080 Speaker 1: an average of seven years, and two of them, of course, 416 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: were cut short because of the strike. Now I get it. 417 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 1: Albert Bell doesn't have the lifetime numbers that some other 418 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 1: guys have, but if it wasn't for injuries, he could 419 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 1: have easily sailed past five hundred home runs in sixteen 420 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 1: hundred RBIs. And yes, Albert Bell was not the friendliest 421 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 1: of guys and even spent some time in trouble with 422 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 1: the law after his playing days were over. But the 423 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame shouldn't be a popularity contest. It should 424 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: be a museum to honor the players who were the 425 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 1: best of the best in the years they played, and 426 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:04,240 Speaker 1: that hands down. Is Albert Bell now bringing the closer. 427 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 1: Here's why MLB is better than the NFL or NBA, 428 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:16,879 Speaker 1: and it isn't even close. The reason baseball is better 429 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 1: than the NFL and NBA is clear, especially when you 430 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:28,919 Speaker 1: talk about race. It's hard to deny baseball's place in 431 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: American history and Jackie Robinson the other sports, especially when 432 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:41,879 Speaker 1: you talk about the NFL and what's happened. How in 433 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:47,359 Speaker 1: the world could you not think that the NFL was 434 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:53,040 Speaker 1: the league that shun Colin Kaepernick for kneeling in a 435 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:58,439 Speaker 1: peaceful protest. They took his livelihood, they took his job, 436 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 1: They ridiculed him, they ostracized him. He was right. He 437 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:11,159 Speaker 1: was telling us four years ago, twenty sixteen about the 438 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,640 Speaker 1: plight of the black man at the hands of white police, 439 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 1: and they didn't hear him. Even the NBA, which has 440 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 1: done a lot of good things as far diversity and 441 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: the treatment of African American players, even they have on 442 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 1: the books and people don't talk about it. They have 443 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 1: on the books where players can't protest during the national anthem. 444 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:49,680 Speaker 1: It's an American it should be stricken from their CB. 445 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 1: A shame on NBA Commissioner Adam silver. Shame on the 446 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:58,920 Speaker 1: NBA players for allowing that to continue to happen. That 447 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:08,439 Speaker 1: should be removed moved from their c B A. In 448 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:11,679 Speaker 1: the words of New York TV legend the late Bill Jorgensen, 449 00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 1: thanking you for your time this time until next time. 450 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:18,520 Speaker 1: Rob Parker out.
