You've got the Yankees 156 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,479 Speaker 4: designating Carlos Carrasco for assignment.

Since Texas did pick up 165 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 4: a nice win yesterday, Chris Young is not going to 166 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 4: wait all season again. Right.

They make 169 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 4: pickups like Jake Berger and Jock Peterson, both of them 170 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 4: not working out so far. Jock's been ice cold if 171 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 4: you're looking at the first six weeks of the year. 172 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 4: Jake Berger's now down in the minor leagues right now. 173 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 4: Leodie Tavares was cut and just claimed by Seattle, and 174 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 4: they got rid of Donnie Ecker and added Brett Boone. 175 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 4: So there's actually a lot of Seattle Texas connectivity going 176 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 4: on here right now, the Mariners pick up Tavaris to 177 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 4: be part of their outfield. Is I don't know what 178 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 4: the deal is going to be with Victor Roeblace, but 179 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 4: if he comes back at all, it's probably going to 180 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 4: be late. 181 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: Yeah. 182 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think for the Mariners it was an insurance 183 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 5: policy when you look at that Victor Roblaze trade and you. 184 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 2: Know they're thinking the change of scenery will be good. 185 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 5: And you look at Leodo Tavares, you look at a 186 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 5: guy going back to the World Series where he showed 187 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 5: a glimpse off both sides of the play defensively, you know, athletically, 188 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 5: he showed a glimpse that he could be above average 189 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 5: big leaguer, and then the last couple of years it 190 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 5: just hasn't happened. 191 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 2: He just struggled. He really hasn't seemed to find his footing. 192 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:36,079 Speaker 5: So you know, when you look at that and the 193 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 5: lack of other guys who are not expendable, they had 194 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 5: to make a move. And what I love about this, 195 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 5: I told somebody earlier, is I love that Chris Young 196 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,319 Speaker 5: is behind this and he isn't satisfied with the World Series. 197 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 5: Chris Young is an ex player, and I appreciate more 198 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 5: ex players like Chris Young. We've seen what Buster Posey 199 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 5: has put together in San Francisco. 200 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 2: Guys like Chris. 201 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 5: Young, they're not gonna wait around and be happy with 202 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 5: that one champion. They're not gonna wait around and watch 203 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 5: a team underachieve. And as a front office, sometimes you 204 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 5: can do things like try to find the right guys 205 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 5: who can can convey a message with the offense. It's 206 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 5: specifically talking about how the offense has struggled, or somebody 207 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 5: that may just click differently, may bring a different energy, 208 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 5: a different vibe. Like AJ said, things happen behind doors 209 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 5: that we don't know about, and sometimes, you know, it 210 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 5: just doesn't work out. And I also assume that even 211 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 5: you know, with these moves made, I just assume Chris 212 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 5: Young is a guy who went into those you know, 213 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 5: went to the clubhouse, maybe talk to Sieg or make 214 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 5: the talk, maybe talk to same and not saying they 215 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 5: were throwing anybody under the bus, but hey, they might 216 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 5: have said, you know, this just isn't connecting or just 217 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 5: just isn't making sick, or just it's not clicking for us. 218 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 5: And if it's forced them to make some decisions, and 219 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 5: you know, with that roster. They want to win and 220 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 5: they're not happy or they're not satisfied. So as a fan, 221 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 5: I appreciate the effort from the front office not just 222 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:59,199 Speaker 5: sitting on their hands, not waiting on the players to 223 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 5: just figure it out, but also trying to do their 224 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 5: part and and help out. 225 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 4: AJ. I feel like you've covered a decent amount of 226 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 4: Texas Rangers ball. Were you surprised that Tavaris got picked up? 227 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 3: No, No, he can be a good player. He's proven 228 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 3: he can be a good player. The most important thing 229 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 3: in the news dump is Mike shultz classes didn't get scratched. Like, 230 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 3: I don't care about this player, that. 231 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 2: Player doing this. 232 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 3: Mike Schultz's classes didn't get scratch Why are we talking 233 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 3: about this guy getting picked up? Or like, let's talk 234 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 3: about the real important stuff here. Mike Shilt shucked his 235 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 3: glasses and he showed us all. They didn't get scratched. 236 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 3: So Shilty, you can come on the show and discuss 237 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 3: what kind of glass you were. Maybe you can get 238 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 3: a sponsorship. 239 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 5: I was gonna say, AJ, we gotta find we gotta 240 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 5: find out that brand though, AJ, that's the biggest thing, 241 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,679 Speaker 5: because you know AJ Ware's coming up. It was all 242 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,079 Speaker 5: about Linz Crafters, all right. All I know is is 243 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 5: Lynz Crafters. So I know they got all these different 244 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 5: brands out there. Right now, we gotta find out the 245 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 5: brand of those glasses. 246 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 3: I mean, that's great. Adrian Johnson's taking the brunt of 247 00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,079 Speaker 3: it right there. The peen goes, the lineup card goes, 248 00:10:59,200 --> 00:10:59,839 Speaker 3: the glasses go. 249 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 1: Nothing. Nothing hurting the process, kids, No animals were hurting 250 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:04,080 Speaker 1: this process. 251 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 2: Hey you this. 252 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:07,679 Speaker 1: We loved it. He did the right thing. 253 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 3: I loved it because you know why Tatis got ejected 254 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 3: and he knew I got to stand up for my guy, 255 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 3: and he went out there and he did it, and 256 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:16,679 Speaker 3: the team responded and got him a w. 257 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 5: And apparently there was some history there between those two. 258 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,839 Speaker 5: But what got me about aj I'm not sure having 259 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 5: any times you got tossed, But what does it do 260 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 5: as you're like you you got your players back, or 261 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 5: you're the player you're going off and the umpire gives 262 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 5: you that. The Adrian Johnson he just gives that like 263 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,440 Speaker 5: little smirt, Like does that just piss you off even 264 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 5: more and just make you go even more overboard? Because 265 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 5: it seemed like he gave she'lly Shilty that little smirk 266 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,439 Speaker 5: like kind of like all right, like whatever, oh Shilty 267 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 5: just gave it to him more. I love the energy, 268 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 5: I love the passion. And I said this years ago. 269 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 5: It always starts with the manager. The past two seasons, 270 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 5: this is the most together the Padres have been and 271 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 5: it's because of that guy right there and his awesome glasses. 272 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, I tell you got yeah. 273 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 1: I mean, what else am I going to say? Yeah? 274 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 3: I mean umpires. When I got kicked out Cam, I 275 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 3: just walked back because I was like, I knew I 276 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 3: didn't want to get suspended for too long, so I 277 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,319 Speaker 3: just I knew when I got kicked out, i'd yell 278 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 3: at him, and I just turned around to walk away 279 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:20,440 Speaker 3: because I didn't want to know what I say, and 280 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 3: I didn't want to look at their face because then 281 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 3: I would just get angrier. The only time I ever 282 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 3: got ejected, but there was a couple of times they 283 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 3: got ejected to laugh. But one of them, Bob Davidson, 284 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 3: called a pitch on me, and I love Bob, but 285 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 3: he called a pitch on me. It almost hit me 286 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 3: from Marianos and I threw my helmet. I threw my 287 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 3: helmet and spun at his feet. It was great, and 288 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 3: he kicked me out. After the game. We saw each 289 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:42,679 Speaker 3: other in the tunnel and I just said, you know, Bob, 290 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 3: you were right. You deserve to kick me out. He goes, 291 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 3: why did you throw your helmet? I go because I 292 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 3: was so damn mad? Do you cost me that a 293 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 3: bat in a close game? And he goes, okay, fair enough, but. 294 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 1: That was it. We laughed about it after the game. 295 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 3: But listen, getting ejected is a part of it, and 296 00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:59,839 Speaker 3: sometimes you just got to do it. And Hilty knew 297 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 3: and stood and he did it. 298 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 4: So I love it, especially if you're a manager. You 299 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 4: don't play, so you're not losing AB's or anything. It's 300 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:08,679 Speaker 4: one regular season game. 301 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 3: You find like five hundred bucks and whatever, you send 302 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 3: it to a charity and you move on. 303 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:17,199 Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly. Hey, we got word on Jordan Alvarez Chandler Rome, 304 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 4: who writes for The Athletic and is the host of 305 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,319 Speaker 4: Krush City Territory, says An Mri revealed Jordon has a 306 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 4: muscle strain in the top of his right hand. Manager 307 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 4: Joe Spotted called it good news and said the Astros 308 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:29,680 Speaker 4: hope he can be swinging to back when they return 309 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 4: home from this road trip. So this has been a 310 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,440 Speaker 4: deep team for years, Cam, it just seems a little 311 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:39,560 Speaker 4: bit thinner, especially position player wise. And we talked about 312 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 4: this yesterday, so we can get your take for a minute. 313 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 4: They feel it when Ordon's out, I'd say more so 314 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 4: than they had in the past. Right, it'd be like, oh, 315 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 4: yourdons out, but Kyle Pucker's on a heater right now, right, 316 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:54,080 Speaker 4: And obviously if we're going further back, there's Correa and 317 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 4: Springer and guys like that, but they keep losing guys. 318 00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 4: You're not going to produce superstars on a yearly basis. 319 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 5: Listen, and I think what I see too, Scottie. This 320 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 5: is what I feel, And sometimes it's too as the 321 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 5: product of how much money are you willing to spend? 322 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 5: Sometimes when you have a winning product and you develop 323 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 5: a winning culture, you start to believe that all your 324 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 5: prospects and the people coming through the pipelines are going 325 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 5: to be those. 326 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 2: Guys that have got you there. Right. 327 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:25,400 Speaker 5: So I don't know if I want to call it 328 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 5: undervalue what they've done, but I think sometimes you start 329 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 5: to get lost in your own salt of what the 330 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 5: guys who are I won't say generational. Some are generational, 331 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 5: but the all stars that are hard to come by, 332 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 5: the all stars that are hard to find. I think 333 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 5: sometimes you take for granted just what they've done and 334 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 5: how good they are, how tough it is to be 335 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 5: consistent at the big league levels. 336 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 4: It is complicated enough to figure out what type of 337 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 4: car you want, but when it comes to pricing and 338 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 4: best time to buy and all that information that you're 339 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 4: looking for, car gurus is the only destination that you 340 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 4: should be thinking about. 341 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 6: That's why because I don't have to question what the 342 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 6: price is.

Hey, we're here looking at a 358 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 4: Sarah Langs tweet. I texted Sarah happy birthday the other day, 359 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 4: by the way, and the clip of the shout out 360 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 4: from Friday, she said, loves the ftfam and everybody on here, 361 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 4: So hello Sarah if you're watching. But anyway, she said, 362 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 4: most career walks before turning twenty seven. That was the tweet. 363 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 4: Soto is at seven ninety eight, passing Mickey Mantle at 364 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 4: seven ninety seven, and Soda turns twenty seven years old 365 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 4: on October twenty fifth, which is, you know, at World 366 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 4: Series time at that point, I guess AJ, So obviously 367 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 4: the game's played. You're never gonna get both right either 368 00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 4: look at the games played or the age. But the 369 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 4: age here does tell us how much Soto's going to, 370 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 4: you know, be able to dominate the category still for 371 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 4: a long time. I don't think he's gonna lose the 372 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 4: plate discipline now anytime soon. 373 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 2: No, that man loves the walk, That man loves the wall. 374 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 2: He loves the walk. He loves the walk more I 375 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:40,160 Speaker 2: think he loves the hit, but he loves the walk. 376 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 1: So he's got a lot of walks. He's gonna keep 377 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 1: getting a walk. That's what he does. 378 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 4: He walked, Vado did it for twenty years. 379 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 2: Oh, you walk your way with the Hall of Fame. Obwausly, 380 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 2: you had to hit your way. 381 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 1: But it's a new age. Now you can walk your 382 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 1: way with the Hall of Fame. 383 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 2: And I get it. 384 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 3: I get played. Discipline is important, but you also got 385 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 3: to have a little bit of you. When there's a 386 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 3: guy on third in less than two outs and I 387 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 3: don't care who's hitting behind you, you might have to 388 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:04,680 Speaker 3: expand a little bit and put the ball in player, 389 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 3: drive the guy in. 390 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: I get it. 391 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 3: Walks are important. I'm just saying, sometimes you might have 392 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 3: to expand a little bit. 393 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 2: Yes, thank you, I'm with aj. 394 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 1: It's great. 395 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 2: That's great, great accomplishment. 396 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:17,159 Speaker 5: But eight hundred for billion dollars, two fifty four to 397 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 5: five homers fourteen rbah. That don't give a damn about 398 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:23,120 Speaker 5: the walks. 399 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 4: Let's go over some games from yesterday. The Giants meeting 400 00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 4: up with the Cubs, and you look at the score 401 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:36,159 Speaker 4: and you're like, ah, they blew them out. Yeah, and extras. 402 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 4: That eleventh inning was insane. I mean, AJ, you don't 403 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,720 Speaker 4: see that very often. Things can get out of hand, 404 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 4: but that level of out of hand. Fourteen to five 405 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 4: was the final score of that one yesterday. So it's 406 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 4: tied for the highest scoring eleventh innings since nineteen hundred. 407 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,440 Speaker 4: Last team just scored nine runs in the eleventh the padres. 408 00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:58,960 Speaker 4: I mean, I don't really care tenth, eleven, twelfth, whatever. 409 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 4: It's just a team absolutely annihilated another team in the eleven. 410 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, you just don't see this. That's the thing. You 411 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:08,199 Speaker 1: just don't. You just don't see this. 412 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 3: In this new style of the way with the runner 413 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 3: on second, most teams try to get one, maybe two. 414 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,720 Speaker 3: But the hits and the mistakes just kept on coming, 415 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:18,119 Speaker 3: and the Giants put it on them. I remember I 416 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 3: looked at this when it was five to five and 417 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,159 Speaker 3: I was like, oh, all right, I'll turn this on. 418 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,159 Speaker 3: And then I looked away for a minute and it 419 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 3: was twelve to five, and then I looked back and 420 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:26,359 Speaker 3: I was like, dang, they scored nine runs and went 421 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 3: in and that's a good extra ending right there. 422 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, that was that was great. 423 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 5: But what I loved about it the most is when 424 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 5: you watch the highlight, everything stayed in the ballpark, right. 425 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:41,720 Speaker 2: I appreciate the teams who I think are making. 426 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,120 Speaker 5: Us realize and it kind of goes to the walk 427 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 5: and it's great. But like when AJ talks and I 428 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 5: think he would have did kind of that old school mentality, 429 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:52,440 Speaker 5: like what happened to being able to produce runs? Manufactured runs? 430 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 5: I seen, I saw a butt there. He almost was 431 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,440 Speaker 5: a safety squeeze or suicide squeeze, one of the two, 432 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 5: but like a manufacturing runs. And again, Buster Posey a 433 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 5: baseball guy putting baseball players on the field and not 434 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,639 Speaker 5: just one trick ponies. So you know you have a 435 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:13,880 Speaker 5: team who doesn't rely on the homer and they don't 436 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 5: feast their famine off of it. So for me, it 437 00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 5: just shows you how special it is when we can 438 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 5: get back to a team that can actually play baseball. 439 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 2: I love it. 440 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:26,119 Speaker 4: Yeah, we're showing the record here. Three weeks after a 441 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:29,679 Speaker 4: record sixteen runs in a single inning at Wrigley that 442 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,520 Speaker 4: was Cubs d Backs. Another record this is nine runs 443 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 4: in the eleventh most scored in an extra inning in 444 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 4: Wrigley Field. History. By the way, on the other side, 445 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 4: Aja Kyle Harrison made his first career relief appearance. I mean, 446 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,680 Speaker 4: he's had good stuff. It hasn't worked out for him 447 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 4: yet as a starter. The Giants have a pretty good bullpen. 448 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 4: To me, when I'm watching this game yesterday, I'm like, Okay, 449 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:55,200 Speaker 4: the Cubs flaw and issue could be the bullpen, right 450 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 4: and for the Giants that could be their best strength. 451 00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:00,680 Speaker 1: Gave it a trade. Maybe they're make a little trade 452 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 1: to trade somewhere along the way. I've been gonna make 453 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 1: a little trader. I don't know. 454 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 3: The Cubs need bullpen help. There's listen, there's no doubt 455 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 3: in my mind that Cubs need bullpen help. Okay, I 456 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,640 Speaker 3: know they got Ran Pressley, but they're they're gonna need more. 457 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,120 Speaker 3: Hodge has been good, but they're gonna need some more. 458 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,640 Speaker 3: And I guarantee you right now, Jed Hoyer and those 459 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 3: Cubby bearers are out there looking for bullpen help. 460 00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, that'll be something they go after at the deadline. Obviously, 461 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 4: this year is gonna be different. They're gonna be in it. 462 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:25,639 Speaker 4: You know, they're gonna be in the race here for 463 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,000 Speaker 4: the division. I think that's pretty obvious. At this point, 464 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:30,120 Speaker 4: they're about to hit the soft spot too. I think 465 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,120 Speaker 4: it's coming up. Remember how we went over. They've got 466 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 4: like a really soft schedule coming up. 467 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, and they and one thing they can do, and 468 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:40,640 Speaker 5: one thing they can do in that division that most 469 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:45,920 Speaker 5: teams can't is score ruins, like even with the bullpen 470 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 5: like they it might be one of those things we 471 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 5: might see a lot of over the run totals in 472 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:52,679 Speaker 5: the Cubs games when they hit that little soft spot, 473 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 5: because a lot of those teams are gonna be facing 474 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:56,439 Speaker 5: don't score a lot of ruins. 475 00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:00,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, So they've got to finish the gauntlet here with 476 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 4: the Mets after they finished the one they're playing today, 477 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 4: and then it's Marlins at home. They play the White 478 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 4: Sox at home, they go to Miami for three more, 479 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:18,160 Speaker 4: then they've got Cincinnati, then they welcome in the Rockies 480 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 4: Nats or yeah, Reds Nats. They've got a really long 481 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 4: run here aj where they face. 482 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 2: They don't sleep on the nets. 483 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 4: I know they're five hundred team. That's not a bad team. 484 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,640 Speaker 4: I mean towards the end. Their point is, you heard 485 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 4: some of the teams I said, Rockies, White Sox. Obviously 486 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 4: the Marlins. This seems like a worse time to catch 487 00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 4: the Marlins. I think they'll get worse as the year 488 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:44,639 Speaker 4: goes on from a pitching perspective, but still, AJ, this 489 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,440 Speaker 4: is where the Cubs can potentially, you know, go into 490 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 4: a twenty game stretch and go fifteen to five. 491 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 1: No, this is the soft spot. 492 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,199 Speaker 3: Everyone's question where they'd be at the end of April, 493 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:58,399 Speaker 3: because they had the Dodgers, Diamondbacks, all those padres, all 494 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 3: those teams, and now they're in where they can really 495 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 3: make them any They've already made it. They've already got 496 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 3: a nice lead in their division, and they're playing great 497 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 3: and they're swinging the bats. So now it's time for 498 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:08,919 Speaker 3: them to really turn it on. And the Cubs I 499 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 3: picked them to win the division. 500 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 1: I still think they will. 501 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,720 Speaker 3: I think they'll make moves when they need to, and 502 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 3: I think they're in a really good spot. I love 503 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 3: the we love We've talked about it. We love the 504 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 3: Tucker Edition, pi Ko Armstrong is becoming a superstar. So 505 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:22,960 Speaker 3: they're they're on the right trajectory. 506 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 4: And No, I'll cap it with this. So I was 507 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 4: saying before how we were on Marquee, because we're on 508 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:31,160 Speaker 4: that channel, which is the Cubs channel most days. It's funny. 509 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 4: We waited until we sent them off to their pregame 510 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,400 Speaker 4: show or whatever they're doing, so that AJ could talk 511 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,920 Speaker 4: a little bit, a little bit nicely about the Cubbies. 512 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 3: I'm honest, the Cubs are good. Cubs are the best 513 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 3: team in this division. They should win this division. And 514 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 3: I said They're going into the year the Cubs. I'm honest, 515 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 3: Like it might pay me to say it, but I'll 516 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,200 Speaker 3: say it. The Cubs are the best team in this division. 517 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,680 Speaker 3: It should win this division and they should win it handily. 518 00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:57,920 Speaker 3: Now will they I don't know, but I think they will. 519 00:22:58,160 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 4: If you want to be boogie and have your own 520 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,679 Speaker 4: personal shopper, Hungry Root is actually the spot, and you 521 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 4: can do it at an affordable price. 522 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 7: Yeah, without a doubt.

Brian 543 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 4: Hooks said that they're not ruling out John Carlo Stanton 544 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:05,920 Speaker 4: being ready when he's eligible to come off to sixty 545 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 4: dail later this month. Aaron Boone said his rehab will 546 00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 4: looked different than most since they don't need him to 547 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:13,199 Speaker 4: get ready to play the field. That's true, so you 548 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,400 Speaker 4: just get your abs and then. Pedro Martinez tweeted about 549 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 4: Aaron Judge. He said he's not the same judge I 550 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 4: saw last year. He thinks he's going opposite field. He 551 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 4: is going opposite field more shows than the average, he said, 552 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,680 Speaker 4: even more dangerous now than he was when he had 553 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:29,880 Speaker 4: sixty plus homers. He has improved and matured and looks better. 554 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 4: Of course for Yankee fans, they want to see if 555 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 4: that translates to a better overall postseason hit or two, 556 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 4: which this approach I think will do that, right Cam. 557 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 4: I mean, he choked last year in the playoffs, like 558 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,880 Speaker 4: he was bad, so this version of him would play 559 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:45,080 Speaker 4: better in the playoffs. 560 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, And I think what you look at it, 561 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,760 Speaker 5: I think is his k rate is at like sixteen percent, 562 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 5: which is well below his career average, which that says 563 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 5: a lot. He's he's letting the ball travel, he's trusting 564 00:24:56,040 --> 00:25:00,399 Speaker 5: his power, he's trusting what he does really well, and 565 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 5: he can use the hope feel really well. We saw, 566 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 5: you know, when he had that run of sixty. And 567 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 5: in the last few years we've talked so much about, Okay, 568 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 5: how Aaron Judge has changed his approaching kind of got 569 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,160 Speaker 5: to you know, got into the I'm going to pull 570 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 5: the ball more and hit for more power. Well, he 571 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 5: can still hit for that same power and be an 572 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 5: elite and above average hitter if he used the whole field, 573 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 5: especially when you talk about three fourteen. That was a 574 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 5: thing that was you know, was kind of going around 575 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:25,879 Speaker 5: the clubhouse when I will play for the Yankees, it was. 576 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 2: Three fourteen to had T shirts. He said, three fourteen, 577 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:29,399 Speaker 2: especially for the righties. 578 00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:32,480 Speaker 5: It just kind of, you know, reiterated that approach that, hey, 579 00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 5: if I trust that backside approach, I can get rewarded. 580 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 5: So I think Pedro was spot on. He's seen it 581 00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 5: for years. 582 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:53,040 Speaker 4: Oh let's slap and we're talking about the Diamondbacks. I 583 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,359 Speaker 4: don't remember if you mentioned this, but Corbyn Burns of 584 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,160 Speaker 4: course is dealing with shoulder inflammation cortersone shot, I mean, 585 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:02,359 Speaker 4: never great for your fresh signing. But then also Marrick 586 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 4: Kelly has been dealing with these cramps, so he's been 587 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 4: plagued with hydration issues. He's had leg cramps during games. 588 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 4: Had this pop up quite a bit this year already, 589 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 4: and fans are setting in bottles of pickles to help. 590 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,879 Speaker 4: He said he's had some of them, or that's what 591 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 4: his manager, Tory Lebelo said, and that they're pretty good. 592 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:22,360 Speaker 4: I heard a good idea. I think it was from 593 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:25,879 Speaker 4: our Buddy Jim Bowden on his radio show What Do 594 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 4: You Think About This? AJ? Boden said that sometimes they 595 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 4: used to give ivs to pitchers who had issues like 596 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:33,880 Speaker 4: this before games. I don't know, maybe he's done this already, 597 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 4: but there's got to be a way to do, like 598 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 4: extra hydration to make sure that this doesn't pop up. 599 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 3: They must watch Foul Territory because Tyler Glasnow said pickle juice. Member, 600 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,479 Speaker 3: we had that little thing. And also I knew players 601 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 3: that used to get ivs before games. 602 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:53,360 Speaker 2: All the time, all too absolutely. And when I was Anaheim, 603 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:54,680 Speaker 2: I used to for some reason. 604 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:56,879 Speaker 5: When I was playing an Anaheim, I had to get 605 00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:57,720 Speaker 5: a few IV's and. 606 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 2: It wonders, and pickle juice is pickle juice works, wonders. 607 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:05,879 Speaker 2: But I drink pickle juice for no fans. 608 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 1: AJ Damn, I'm just gonna say this. 609 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 2: I don't know because I ain't never had a cramp, 610 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 2: so I don't know. 611 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:15,399 Speaker 5: You gotta crampand I have muscle. 612 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:17,680 Speaker 2: You gotta have muscles to cramp, mate, I got bull 613 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:19,159 Speaker 2: that thing. 614 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:24,000 Speaker 4: Hey, be careful drinking other people's pickle juice. 615 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:27,040 Speaker 2: Careful checking jump other people.
