1 00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:05,080 Speaker 1: All right, but dip the feel you wanted to talk. 2 00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:09,200 Speaker 1: It is Saturday, August tenth, and it was game two 3 00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:12,160 Speaker 1: of a doubleheader between the Yankees and the world champion 4 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:15,800 Speaker 1: Texas Rangers. After a winning Game one, the Yankees were 5 00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:19,279 Speaker 1: trying to lock down Game two behind Garrett Cole. My recap, 6 00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:23,200 Speaker 1: Your reaction's coming up next. This is ny why recaps? 7 00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:40,520 Speaker 1: Welcome call me back? Yikes? How's it going? Everybody? Welcome back? 8 00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:44,680 Speaker 1: Full day of baseball for both fans of the Yankees 9 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 1: and the Rangers. Yankees won Game one eight to nothing. 10 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:52,200 Speaker 1: Game two a much different story. Yankees wasted a damn 11 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 1: good pitching performance from Garrett Cole. Game actually started off okay, 12 00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 1: tie game through five innings before before the Rangers exploded 13 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,679 Speaker 1: for five runs off of Luke Weaver and three runs 14 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 1: off of Michael Tonkin, who both got booed into the 15 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 1: shadow realm. Second game in a row that. Glaber Torres 16 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 1: gave the Yankees an early lead with a line drive 17 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:17,320 Speaker 1: single to right field. He's got a few of those today, 18 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 1: so that's a good sign. I always felt like Labor 19 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 1: Torres is at his best when he's just taking the 20 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:24,759 Speaker 1: ball to right field and picking up base hits because 21 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,039 Speaker 1: then the power comes, you get under one and you 22 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:31,120 Speaker 1: drive it out of the ballpark. But you know, Garrett 23 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 1: Cole was vintage today except for the fact that he 24 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 1: got pulled after ninety pitches. We can talk about that. 25 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: Whether it was too quick of a hook. I think 26 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: the Yankees are trying to manage his health. You know, 27 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 1: he's battled some elbow injuries, he had the general body fatigue. 28 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 1: Ten strikeouts today will break all that down in a minute. 29 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 1: I thought maybe it was a little bit of a 30 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 1: quick hook, but you know, I don't blame Boom for 31 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 1: trying to heat this guy healthy. Not a lot of 32 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 1: other positives. You know, John Carlos Stanton had some good 33 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: swings today, balls very hard, one of them into Monument 34 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:07,279 Speaker 1: Park laser beam double that was one fifteen off the bat, 35 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 1: and a multi hit day from Alex Rijugo. Mark Leier 36 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:16,079 Speaker 1: has pretty good stuff. But the Yankees fail and once 37 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 1: again split a doubleheader for the second time this week. 38 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,239 Speaker 1: Let us talk about Garrett Cole, though, because I feel 39 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 1: like this is at least one major positive from today. 40 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 1: You know, Cole has not been Cole since he's come back, 41 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 1: but this is the second good start in a row 42 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 1: after he had to skip a start. The stuff today 43 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 1: was the best that we have seen this year period, 44 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 1: best stuff that he's had all year. And I was 45 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,920 Speaker 1: nervous because it was his first time pitching to Carlos Narvaez. 46 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: And we know that Garrett Cole's kind of like a 47 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 1: picky pitcher, right He doesn't like to have his routine interrupted. 48 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: Last year, he didn't throw to Austin Wells when Austin 49 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:53,959 Speaker 1: Wells got called up for the final six weeks of 50 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 1: the season, and I was worried that, you know, maybe 51 00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,519 Speaker 1: he would implode if he didn't have his personal catcher. 52 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: But to his credit, he was great. Fastball was touching 53 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 1: ninety nine, the curveball was filthy. Season high in strikeouts. 54 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: Because of the time that the game started, I thought 55 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 1: he got helped a little bit by the shadows early on. 56 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,359 Speaker 1: You know, during those late afternoon games at Yankee Stadium, 57 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 1: where the shadows are halfway between home plate and the 58 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: pitchers mount, it's just an absolute nightmare for hitters, and 59 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: Cole was taking advantage of it. Eight strikeouts for the 60 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: first four innings, ten strikeouts. The shadows were pretty much 61 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: gone by the end of the fifth, but he had 62 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 1: a couple more strikeouts in the fifth. I thought the 63 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: curveball was especially good. Stat cast breakdown of his ninety pitches, 64 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,120 Speaker 1: sixty three of them were strikes. Max Vilo was ninety 65 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 1: nine point one miles an hour. He had twenty six 66 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 1: swings and misses. That's a ton. He had fifty two 67 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 1: total swings, so of the swings that batters took, half 68 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: of them came up empty. On the season e down 69 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 1: to four point seven zero, still obviously not where Garrett 70 00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 1: Cole expects it to be, but second good game in 71 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 1: a row. Forty six innings on the season, more than 72 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: a strikeout per winning fifty two strikeouts just fourteen walks. 73 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 1: The whip remains high at one point four to one, 74 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: but I'm confident that will come down with time. You know, 75 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 1: he threw the ball well enough to win today, but 76 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:19,280 Speaker 1: the offense and the bullpen both let him down. Unfortunately. 77 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,719 Speaker 1: We gotta get a big start tomorrow from Marcus Stroman. 78 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: Rubber game, and Stroman has been bad since June sixteenth. 79 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 1: He is one in three with a five point five 80 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: to six ERA in seven starts, so that's awful. Forty 81 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 1: one hits allowed in thirty four innings over that span. 82 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: Get this, hitters have an ops of eight eighty three 83 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 1: off of Marcus Stroman. Since June sixteenth, they're hitting three 84 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 1: zero four. If you're not a number person, those numbers 85 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 1: are straight do do. And what's worriedsome is that he 86 00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,159 Speaker 1: got off to kind of a similar start last year 87 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 1: with the Cubs fell apart in the second half, so 88 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 1: the same thing could be happening. We gotta watch it, 89 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: and Tomorrow's gonna be a must watch if you're a 90 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: Yankees fan, because they got a chance to either win 91 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 1: the series and the weekend on a high note, or 92 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,160 Speaker 1: to drop another series to a team they really should beat, 93 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: a sub five hundred team, and we need Marcus Stroman 94 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 1: to step up. So I hinted at it last week. 95 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 1: We're gonna be breaking some major channel news on Monday. 96 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 1: The news will actually be broken on Foul Territory during 97 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: the day, so tune in for that, and then we'll 98 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,920 Speaker 1: dive depth, in depth into what it means on Monday night. 99 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,840 Speaker 1: So tune in to Foul Territory on Monday, and then 100 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,160 Speaker 1: obviously tune in here for the postgame show. After the 101 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: White Sox you're gonna want to see it. That's all 102 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say. It's big. Let's go ahead and get 103 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 1: to the recap. All right, let's go, let's get it going. 104 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 1: Both teams were quiet early. On bottom two, Jazz Chisselm 105 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 1: ripped a line single. Then he stole second base, twenty 106 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:05,119 Speaker 1: fifth steal of the season. He was showcasing the speed 107 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:06,720 Speaker 1: and the power today. H had a couple of home 108 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: runs in the doubleheader. He came around of score on 109 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,599 Speaker 1: the line drive single to write by Glaber Torres. Second 110 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,599 Speaker 1: game today that he's done that, and seventh game in 111 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 1: a row with at least one hit. It's no coincidence. 112 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 1: I think that a lot of his hits are going 113 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: to right field. You know, he's just a much better 114 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: hitter when he lets the ball travel and just laces 115 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 1: it the other way instead of exploding through that front 116 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 1: side and trying to pull everything and falling off. So 117 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 1: positive sign for him. Franklin Lopez says, have you noticed 118 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 1: that the Yankees can't beat left handed pitchers at all? 119 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:47,839 Speaker 1: And yeah, they had another difficult time with it today. 120 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: I don't know how you solve it. It's got to 121 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 1: be a mental thing at this point, you throw lefties 122 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 1: against him in the playoffs, you're gonna beat him. But 123 00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,279 Speaker 1: Yankees threatened in the third inning, Aaron Judge bounce into 124 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,920 Speaker 1: and around the horn double play to end the inning, 125 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 1: though Rangers tied it up in the fourth, Cole kind 126 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 1: of worked into and out of the jam, struck out 127 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 1: the side for the second time in the game. He 128 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: came out to get Wyatt Langford in the top of 129 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 1: the sixth, but he was done after ninety pitches. Final 130 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 1: line five and a third inning, six hits, one run, 131 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: two walks, ten strikeouts. So definitely had the swing and 132 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: miss working today. Unfortunately, Luke Weaver was awful. Just did 133 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: not have it today. Four hits and five runs allowed 134 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 1: in just one third of an inning. Pitch. That means 135 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 1: he got one out and he gave up four hits 136 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 1: in five runs. That's hard to do. Big play in 137 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 1: the inning, Juan Soto was trying to make a terrific catch. 138 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: It popped out of his glove. He threw to third, 139 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: would have been a force out, but Jazz Chisholm was 140 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: not on the bag. I could say that you know 141 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 1: he's new to the position, and you know cut him 142 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 1: some slack, but you kind of got to know where 143 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 1: the base runners are, and you should know as a 144 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: veteran baseball player that there's a force play there. He 145 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 1: did make a nice defensive play in the seventh, but 146 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: by then it was nine to one Rangers. Stanton smoked 147 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: a two run home run in the eighth inning four 148 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty one feet. He hit three balls today 149 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: that were at least one hundred and eleven miles an 150 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 1: hour exit velocities. The double that he hit the left 151 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: field was one fifteen point eight off the bat. That 152 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 1: was his high watermark at the day, so good to 153 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: see him finally putting it together. Chisholm followed up with 154 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 1: a solo shot second home run of the double hitder. 155 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:25,119 Speaker 1: He officially has a twenty twenty season, twenty home runs 156 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: and twenty five stolen bases. But it was not enough, 157 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 1: as the Yankees come up short nine to four. Wish him, 158 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: We're gonna get you to take good day. Third old 159 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 1: and retired, says Boone's righty lineup is not working versus lefties. 160 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: You wonder if maybe the Martian coming up as a 161 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:51,320 Speaker 1: switch hitter could fill in for Verdugo when the rosters 162 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 1: expand in September. You know, he hits right handed and 163 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: left handed. He's not as good from the right side 164 00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 1: of the plate, but he's serviceable. And I I've seen 165 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,559 Speaker 1: him hit a number of home runs right handed. I've 166 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 1: seen him rip a number of line drives right handed. 167 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 1: So he hits lefties. I haven't looked at his numbers 168 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 1: this year in the verse righties and lefties, but I will. 169 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 1: But I think that's an option that we could look at. 170 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,199 Speaker 1: You know, DJ's been swinging the bat a little bit 171 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 1: better lately. Not great. He obviously didn't do a ton today. 172 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:20,719 Speaker 1: I don't have the box score in front of me, 173 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: but I saw some better swings. I also saw some 174 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: more ground balls unfortunately, So you know, maybe you hit him, 175 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,679 Speaker 1: you know, somewhere in the lineup versus lefties. I think 176 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: it's interesting that os Waldo Cabrera keeps hitting lefty versus lefties. 177 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 1: He did it in Game one. Ben Rice didn't get 178 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:39,560 Speaker 1: the start versus the lefty Austin Wells. You know, probably 179 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:41,439 Speaker 1: would have if it hadn't been the second game of 180 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:45,319 Speaker 1: a doubleheader. He's been swinging the bat well, but uh yeah, 181 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 1: Yankees got to figure out a way to put up 182 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 1: more damage against lefties. That's a good point. Scotto says, 183 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 1: who else called the meaningless home run from Stanton. I'm 184 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:55,960 Speaker 1: not going to call that one meetingless because he's been 185 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 1: trying to get it back together. You know, he's just 186 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 1: coming back from that injury. Sure it was meaningless in 187 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: the grand scope of the game, but it's good on 188 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: a personal level for him to get his confidence going, 189 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,560 Speaker 1: to get his mechanics right. I thought he had some 190 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,320 Speaker 1: really good swings today, not just the results the hard 191 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: line drives, but you look at the foul balls and 192 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: you look at the way he took pitches, just the 193 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 1: little nuances in his swing. He looked a lot more 194 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:27,319 Speaker 1: comfortable today, So that's big. Joe Malones says they lost 195 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 1: this game when Judge hit into a double play and 196 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 1: Jazz didn't tag third base. I mean, those were two 197 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: of the biggest plays of the game. You're not wrong. 198 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna jump on Judge's case. He had three 199 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 1: hits in the first game, hasn't been getting much to 200 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 1: hit and still doing a great job. And Jazz, yeah, 201 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:46,960 Speaker 1: he should have made that play, he should have tagged third, 202 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 1: But he also made some nice plays again new to 203 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 1: the position. Everybody has mental errors now and then. But anyway, 204 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 1: Alex says, the White Sox are gonna take two out 205 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 1: of three. Man, I hope that would be absolutely miserable. 206 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: Let's see here, uh CTC Cards says Stanton needed that 207 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 1: home run. Absolutely got to get his confidence back. When 208 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:18,319 Speaker 1: he's swinging the bat well and you know, driving the ball, 209 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 1: he can go on those crazy streaks where he carries 210 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 1: your team for a week or two, and that's you know, 211 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 1: we could use that right now. We gave him a 212 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 1: break for what was it six six weeks or so, 213 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: it's time for him to you know, carry the load 214 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: for a little while. Alex says, this team always plays 215 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:41,440 Speaker 1: down to his comp to its competition, and that is 216 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: one hundred on manager Aaron Boone. You're you're probably not wrong. 217 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 1: You know, you got to find a way to inspire 218 00:11:55,559 --> 00:12:00,959 Speaker 1: your team against some of these lesser competition teams. I mean, 219 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 1: you can't lose two out of three the Angels, right, 220 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:06,839 Speaker 1: and the way the Rangers have played this year, I 221 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 1: know they're the world champs, but you really should win 222 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:12,679 Speaker 1: this series. Stroman. That's why I was saying tomorrow is 223 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,319 Speaker 1: super important. There's this whole staying in baseball. Momentum is 224 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 1: as strong as your next day is starting pitcher. That 225 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:20,839 Speaker 1: really applies today. The Yankees have a chance to build 226 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 1: some momentum. I truly believe they will beat up on 227 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 1: the White Sox. I don't agree with that commenter who 228 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:29,960 Speaker 1: said the White Sox are gonna win two out of three. 229 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 1: White Sox are really bad. They're like a minor league 230 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 1: baseball team. I think the Yankees are gonna probably sweep 231 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 1: that series. At least take two out of three. You'd 232 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 1: like to sweep, and you'd like to win tomorrow. That'll 233 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: give you four in a row. Nice little win streak. 234 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 1: As somebody noted earlier, the Orioles are winning again, so 235 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 1: they're putting a little distance between themselves and the Yankees 236 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:54,680 Speaker 1: here in first place. Peter says, guys, it's clearly Weaver's 237 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 1: fault today talking giving up three more runs didn't help either. 238 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say it's clearly. I mean, yeah, Weaver definitely contributed, 239 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 1: but there were a lot of issues. I mean, if 240 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:09,079 Speaker 1: if Jazz tags third, that inning unfolds differently. You know, 241 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 1: if Judge hits one in the seats instead of you know, six, five, 242 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 1: four to three double play, the game unfolds differently. One 243 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: play rarely makes or breaks a baseball game. I remember 244 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 1: in the state championship in two thousand and one high 245 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 1: school state championship, there was a grounder at a short and 246 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: our shortstop, who was, you know, normally a very good defender, 247 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 1: booted what should have been an easy double playball. And 248 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 1: after we lost the game, he was really upset, and 249 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 1: I remember my coach saying to him, Hey, one play 250 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 1: never makes a breaks a ball game. And I thought 251 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 1: about it, and yeah, there were a lot of little 252 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 1: things in that game that added up so and since then, 253 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 1: I've always kind of felt like, you know, in any 254 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 1: game and any loss, you can usually identify a few 255 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 1: things that could have gone differently that would have changed 256 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 1: the outcome. So John Fell said, us as White Sox 257 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 1: easily take two out of three from this team. It's gutless. Hey, 258 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:07,959 Speaker 1: let's not overreact. Come on, nice guy says, Stan can 259 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:09,719 Speaker 1: carry a team in what world? Have you not been 260 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 1: watching the Yankees for the last few years. He goes 261 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,559 Speaker 1: on these mega streaks where he'll hit like five home 262 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: runs in a week. We've seen him do it. We've 263 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 1: seen him do it. Go watch some highlights of that 264 00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 1: Boston Series a couple of years ago where he went crazy. 265 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 1: Last year it wasn't so much. Last year he was heard, 266 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 1: he was you know, he didn't play well. But this 267 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 1: year he's been good. He's had a lot of hit 268 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 1: big hits with runners in scoring position this year. Still 269 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 1: trying to come back from that hamstring injury. I think 270 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: the same situation, says Robertson's still a solid closer. Too bad. 271 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 1: I never felt like we should have gotten rid of 272 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 1: David Robertson to let him walk. I see that he's 273 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 1: changed up his delivery a little, but he's got a 274 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 1: little almost like a step. Remember he used to just 275 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 1: come set and then kick. He's got almost like a 276 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 1: mini wind up now. It's funny how even being in 277 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:02,440 Speaker 1: the league for fifteen twenty years, can still make tweaks 278 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 1: and change your game to try and get better. John 279 00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 1: Falcetas says he has more faith in Will Warren than Stroman. 280 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 1: I mean, Will Warren has an ERA over eleven, so 281 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 1: I think that's yeah, just a little outside, Josh, a 282 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 1: bit outside. Craig Ams says could Chisholm go thirty thirty. 283 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 1: I think it's unlikely he'd have to hit ten more 284 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 1: home runs in the final six weeks. That's tough. That's 285 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 1: that's tough. I mean, maybe his power has definitely been 286 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 1: impressive with the Yankees, but that's that's asking a lot. 287 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 1: Joy Boy says, Holliday is looking great for the O's. 288 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 1: I wish the Yanks would bring up the Marston Martian 289 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 1: has actually been struggling a little bit over the last 290 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 1: week or so. I think he's, you know, he's coming 291 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 1: back from that oblique injury, and sometimes when you have 292 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: an oblique injury, you can really struggle to just let 293 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,680 Speaker 1: it rip all the time, just let loose and be confident. 294 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 1: And I think that that's what's happening. I think he's 295 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 1: been a little tentative right now. Sorry're gonna get some water. 296 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 1: Second podcast of the Day over there, plus screaming at 297 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 1: the TV, screaming at Luke Weaver voice is a little 298 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 1: bit sore. Not gonna lie to you, but yeah, I'm 299 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 1: anxious to see the Martian. I think we'll see him 300 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 1: in a few weeks, and they're trying to keep him 301 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 1: under one hundred and thirty eight at Bats for his 302 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 1: career or something like that. So anyway, anyway, John Foul 303 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 1: said a full of all sorts of positive stuff in 304 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 1: this podcast, says Stroman is another Ed Witson. Well, I 305 00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:41,960 Speaker 1: mean every is every pitcher who pitches bad for the 306 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 1: Yankees another Ed Witson. I mean, there's only so many 307 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 1: Ed Wibson Witson. I think I never saw Ed Witson pitch, 308 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 1: but I think that just demeanor wise, Stroman and Witson 309 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 1: are two different guys. Witson apparently just kind of collapsed 310 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 1: when he came to New York mentally and struggled with 311 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 1: confidence and things like that. Strowman doesn't have that problem. 312 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 1: He's just kind of a smallish pitcher who I think 313 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,160 Speaker 1: wears out as the season goes on because he has 314 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:11,200 Speaker 1: to exert so much force to throw the ball ninety 315 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,680 Speaker 1: three ninety four miles an hour. You know, it's tough. 316 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 1: You have to generate more leverage, so you know, it 317 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:21,360 Speaker 1: is what it is. Let's wrap up here, tough day. 318 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 1: Yankees will play tomorrow at one thirty. I will be 319 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 1: back once again. Don't forget to tune in both the 320 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,640 Speaker 1: Foul Territory on Monday and then to the postgame show 321 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 1: here on Monday night, big announcements coming that you are 322 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,679 Speaker 1: all gonna like it's gonna be huge for the channel, 323 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 1: So stay tuned for all that. Take a few more comments. 324 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:47,640 Speaker 1: Wayne Wilcox says, when is Judge gonna hit another home run? 325 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:50,119 Speaker 1: Seems like it's been two plus weeks now since he 326 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: hit one. It does seem like it's been a while, 327 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 1: but it can't have been that long. It's been like 328 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 1: a week and he hasn't been getting pitched too much. 329 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 1: It had to have been against Did he hit one 330 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 1: against the Angels? I know he had a couple against 331 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 1: the Blue Jays. I know he took Gossman deep. I 332 00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 1: don't recall if he went deep against the Angels. But 333 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:22,640 Speaker 1: tite Ericson says, how about this rotation? Cole, rodn Heel, Clark, Schmidt, 334 00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 1: and Stroman. Put Cortes in the bullpen, add another lefty 335 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 1: to the bullpen called Martian and Spencer Jones. First of all, 336 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,160 Speaker 1: Spencer Jones not getting called up. He's striking out about 337 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 1: forty percent of the time in Double A and he 338 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,639 Speaker 1: hasn't given the Yankees any reason to call him up 339 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:40,200 Speaker 1: to Triple A, let alone The majors, so not gonna happen. 340 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,359 Speaker 1: As far as the rotation, I don't think the rotation 341 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 1: really matters that much during the regular season at this point. 342 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 1: I mean, we got, you know, six plus seven weeks, 343 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:52,159 Speaker 1: maybe it. You know, you just got to get the 344 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,679 Speaker 1: best starts you can out of whoever's available. When you 345 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 1: go to the playoffs, you're only gonna use four starters. 346 00:18:57,119 --> 00:19:00,800 Speaker 1: So I think it's gonna be Cole Rodin heel Clark Schmidt. 347 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,120 Speaker 1: That would be my prediction. And hopefully we'll be getting 348 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:06,359 Speaker 1: Clark Schmidt back here in the New in the near future. 349 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 1: But anyway, all right, ladies and gentlemen, we're gonna call 350 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,679 Speaker 1: it a day. Lori C says just win tomorrow, and 351 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:20,920 Speaker 1: I agree. I agree. I'm gonna call it a night, 352 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 1: uh and get some rest. A couple of podcasts today. 353 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 1: I feel like I've been going all day. One more 354 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 1: on the weekend, and then we'll see you on Monday 355 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 1: with some big news. I'll catch you next time.
