1 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:22,680 Speaker 1: What Is Up, Mets fans, Welcome back another episode video 2 00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:24,120 Speaker 1: of the Mets Up podcast. 3 00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:27,840 Speaker 2: We are talking about the next Mets ace. 4 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:29,680 Speaker 1: There's a lot of really good pictures available on the 5 00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:32,280 Speaker 1: free agent market. I'm the trade market too. We've mentioned 6 00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:34,520 Speaker 1: a couple of names in the past before, but today 7 00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:36,479 Speaker 1: we're gonna be talking about a lot of the free 8 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:40,000 Speaker 1: agent available options. I know the Mets signed are traded 9 00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:43,160 Speaker 1: for Jose Sirie. Carlos Mendoza finished third in the National 10 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,200 Speaker 1: League Manager of the Year. We're going to talk about 11 00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:47,159 Speaker 1: that at the end of the episode. Right now, for 12 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 1: the first chunk of it, we're going to focus on pitching, 13 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 1: and I feel like there's no better place to start 14 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 1: than with Corbyn Burns, who is by far the best 15 00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 1: picture on the market right. 16 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 3: Now, best picture on the free agent market. I think 17 00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 3: your best picture on the market. I think we agree 18 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:00,960 Speaker 3: in some other people grew us as Garret Crochet. We 19 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 3: talked about Garret Crochet a lot on this podcast, like 20 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:06,759 Speaker 3: we've weirdly mentioned him like four out of seven episodes. Yeah, 21 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:08,440 Speaker 3: and then also we did the whole second with Luis 22 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:10,400 Speaker 3: Castillo as well, bringing him down. So we're gonna smokes 23 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 3: in the Free Agent episode. I think you're right. Best 24 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 3: guy start with is Corbyn Burns. He is obviously the guy, 25 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:18,039 Speaker 3: like all things considered, he's the best one available in 26 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 3: terms of effectiveness, in terms of reliability, in terms of age, 27 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:22,319 Speaker 3: in terms of how could we think he's gonna age 28 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 3: like it's it's the best, and he's gonna cost by 29 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:26,400 Speaker 3: far in the most money because of all those things. 30 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 3: He does so well and has done so well for 31 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 3: so many years now. 32 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: And I don't know if this is hive mind kicking 33 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 1: in with the Corbyn Burns situation, but one I just 34 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,919 Speaker 1: don't know how realistic it is that the Mets even 35 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 1: are like a favorite to get him. I know we 36 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 1: need a frontline start, and I know he's very good, 37 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:44,960 Speaker 1: but there's been a feeling in my stomach the last 38 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: couple of days. I've been just like looking into more 39 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 1: rumors and news and articles, and it just doesn't really 40 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: feel like the Mets in Corbyn Burns connection is as 41 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 1: strong as maybe Mets fans want it to be. 42 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 3: I totally agree with you. We've been like hard on 43 00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 3: that line this entire offseason because it seems like David 44 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 3: Stern's and the Mester is unwilling to give the length 45 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 3: of contract to someone like Corbyn Burns will want, which 46 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 3: is why I think some other guys are gonna mention 47 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 3: later make a little bit more sense. But Corbin Burns 48 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 3: is going to get that same kind of like seven eight, 49 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 3: possibly even ninety year deal, dirty ish million dollars a year, 50 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 3: and he kind of deserves it based on his body 51 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 3: of work, Like if you go back to twenty twenties, 52 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 3: when Corben Burns broke out twenty nineteen, but like when 53 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:21,959 Speaker 3: you really like stepped on the scene with twenty twenty. 54 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 3: He's got the third most innings pitch in baseball, He's 55 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,519 Speaker 3: got the fourth lowest era of any qualified picture, and 56 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 3: the second most f four fangrafts four. So he's just 57 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 3: like he is. We have a four year I guess 58 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,239 Speaker 3: to a five year chunk of time where Corbin Burns 59 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 3: is like clearly one of the five best pitchers in baseball, 60 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 3: consistently effecting everything. So when you do that and then 61 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 3: you become a free agent in age thirty, you get the 62 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,639 Speaker 3: monster deal. And maybe if we had a different, different 63 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 3: person running the show, you'd be more willing to sign 64 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 3: a guy for seven eight year deal. You do the 65 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 3: first four years of the deal, you take it every 66 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 3: single year, and then the last three you kind of say, 67 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 3: I don't know what's gonna happen, but I don't really 68 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 3: care about them. It just doesn't seem like that is 69 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 3: the value proposition this Mets front office wants to go down. 70 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: Do you think that there's a chance that we're kind 71 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: of we're missing out though, like they worry too much 72 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:06,919 Speaker 1: about the years here with Burns, because, like you said, 73 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 1: those numbers, since twenty twenty, he is one of the 74 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: five best pitchers, if not at the worst ten best 75 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 1: pitchers in Major League Baseball? Is there a chance that 76 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 1: we're kind of overlooking how good he is because of 77 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:16,959 Speaker 1: those years? 78 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 3: Honestly, yes, I think that with Burns, it's there's been 79 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 3: a stead of decline and we'll talk about that in 80 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:24,799 Speaker 3: a little bit. But the STEATI decline is him from 81 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 3: being one of the three best pitchers in the league 82 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 3: to like the ninth best pitcher in the league. So 83 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 3: I think that's kind of like the microscope might be 84 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 3: a little too tight on him. Like, no matter why 85 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 3: when you look at someone like Corbyn Burns, you look 86 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 3: at how a guy like him is going to age. 87 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 3: He doesn't really get by with elite velocity ever, And 88 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 3: like last year he actually had the highest fastball velossie 89 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 3: of his entire career average ninety seven miles now with 90 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 3: the sinker, so that was a real thing. And he 91 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 3: just has such a deep arsenal. There's never really a 92 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 3: weakness that an opposing hitter can attack. A deep bag 93 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 3: is like to say a lot of times in this show, 94 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 3: like when he faced a rioty as arriety, he throws 95 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 3: a sweeper his color. His sinker kind of can't really 96 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 3: prepare for any of those pitches against lefties. Is a 97 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 3: curveball to color, it's a change up. Again, you can't 98 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 3: really get a platoons split against any of the arsenals 99 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 3: in that side. And it's just every single pitch is 100 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 3: so solid and so reliable, and he has such good command. 101 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 3: He can trust the nice situation. He could trust them 102 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 3: at guys on base, he can trust them in any ballpark. 103 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 3: And again with the third most innings pitch is twenty 104 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 3: twenty at least one hundred and ninety three innings in 105 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 3: each of the last three seasons, I know that you're 106 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,160 Speaker 3: only injury prone until you're not and you're only healthy 107 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 3: until you're not as well. But he's demonstrated this year 108 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,159 Speaker 3: over year and without like with really good velocity but 109 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:26,919 Speaker 3: not like the top top, top end velocity that we 110 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:28,920 Speaker 3: think will injure some guys. And again said before, the 111 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 3: command is great, quality of contact against him is really weak. 112 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,600 Speaker 3: He really doesn't give up any hard hit balls. Kind 113 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 3: of struggled a little bit homers this year, but wasn't 114 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,160 Speaker 3: really that bad. He's just he is just really, really, 115 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 3: really good. And I think that maybe as fans, some 116 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 3: of us are focusing more in the fact that he's 117 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 3: not like the best pitcher in the league anymore and 118 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 3: possibly the best run off is just like every seven 119 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:49,279 Speaker 3: year deal for a pitcher is bad, which I don't 120 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 3: fully disagree with in a vacuum. But if you're getting 121 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 3: the ninth best pitcher in baseball, then the sixth best pitcher 122 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 3: in baseball, then the eleventh best pitcher in baseball, then 123 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 3: the thirteenth best pitcher in baseball, then the twenty fifth, 124 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 3: then the twenty twenty seventh, and then like the seventeenth again, 125 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,280 Speaker 3: that would be seven good years. We're probably willing to 126 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 3: pay thirty one million dollars a year for it that 127 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 3: actually is what is going to cost. 128 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 1: And I think he's doing the opposite of what a 129 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: lot of people kind of I think got worried with 130 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 1: with Zach Wheeler, where it was like Wheeler had the 131 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 1: in the past when he was with the Mets, there 132 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 1: was the uh, unaware or unsureness of what he's going 133 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:24,599 Speaker 1: to be able to give you moving forward because there 134 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 1: were injuries at some point in his past. There was 135 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:28,799 Speaker 1: a lack of innings at one point in his past. 136 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,280 Speaker 1: He was behind bigger name star pitchers in that Mets rotation, 137 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 1: but he was getting better and better every single year, 138 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 1: where with Corbyn Burns, while he's still fantastic again, like 139 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,280 Speaker 1: you said, there has been that drop his k rate 140 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: drop five straight seasons, which is that's that is a 141 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: little bit serious. Yeah, that's something to take note of. 142 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: I think that's something that the Mets have taken note 143 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: of and maybe why they're not so strong to him 144 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 1: as well. And the cutter, which was the pitch that 145 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: took him from being like a good relief or a 146 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 1: relief pitcher in Milwaukee to them becoming one of these 147 00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 1: frontline starters in all of Major League baseball let alone, 148 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 1: that rotation, it hasn't been as sharp, So it's like 149 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 1: as good as the things happened for Corbyn Burns. And 150 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,720 Speaker 1: again I would still take him on the Mets in 151 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 1: a heartbeat, because he would he eased to be the 152 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 1: best pitcher on this roster. 153 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 2: It's not even close. 154 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 1: These are the things that make me a little bit 155 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,919 Speaker 1: cautious of him. Where there are some free agents on 156 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 1: the market where you see things going upwards, maybe even Yeah. 157 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 3: I like you mentioned the col friend of the Pod, 158 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:26,799 Speaker 3: Isaac Groffman did a good thread on why Corbin Burns 159 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 3: is no longer an ace like a couple of weeks ago, 160 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,159 Speaker 3: and it got some major pub Aeric Hosler was quote 161 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 3: tweeting it. Yeah, it was great for clicks. Good job 162 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 3: by him, some of that. I love a lot of 163 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 3: things he did there. And one thing he talked a 164 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 3: lot about was the color. When Corbin Burns popped off 165 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 3: that color, pitch was a unicorn. It was basically we 166 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 3: always called it the color, and he used it like 167 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 3: a color because he used it against both sides of play, 168 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 3: and like any comp but lies to buy the way 169 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 3: pitch it was basically a ninety five mile an hour 170 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 3: slider like it was disgusting. It had slider movement, had 171 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 3: slider depth, had slider sweep, and was coming in ninety 172 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 3: five miles an hour. In the last two years, the 173 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 3: pitch has gotten sharper. It's just looks more like a 174 00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 3: regular color now. It's more right. Now, it's more of 175 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 3: like what a hitter would expect as it's coming as 176 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 3: a color, where he used to feel like a color 177 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 3: but move like a slider, and that that kind of 178 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,159 Speaker 3: making it less of a unicorns made it much easier 179 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 3: to hit. And I wonder if maybe that happened because 180 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 3: he's been just throwing more sweepers now too, So maybe 181 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 3: he's just I don't know, maybe he's trying to really 182 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 3: differentiate between those grips and those intents a lot so 183 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 3: the colors, and he's snapping less. I don't know exactly. 184 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 3: I'm not I'm never pitch at a high level and 185 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 3: never really pitch at any level, but the fact that 186 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 3: that's gotten bad, the curve ball's also has gotten a 187 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 3: little bit worse. It's Vlosi has come down a good bit, 188 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 3: even though his other pitches LASSI have gotte up. The 189 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 3: curveballs come down a lot stuff. Plus likes both of 190 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 3: those pitches significantly less than ever did, especially when he 191 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 3: was at the top of his game. Still thinks they're 192 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,120 Speaker 3: very good pitches, but they're no longer like two of 193 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 3: the best pitches in baseball, that color and that curveball. 194 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 3: And again he did developed that sweeper. The sweeper has 195 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 3: been really good. It helped him a lot more against 196 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 3: rightty these last year. I had the forty six percent 197 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 3: with freight. He didn't even really start throwing it until 198 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 3: September and it was kind of just like helped him 199 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 3: get through the end of the year. And again he's 200 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 3: still really, really, really good. Just twenty twenty one. Corbyn 201 00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 3: Burns is probably never walking through that door again. Like 202 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 3: I don't think he's ever going to win a cy 203 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 3: Young again, but I think he's always going to be 204 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 3: quite good. Interesting, Okay, And I don't know if that's 205 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 3: what you give over thirty million dollars for. 206 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I think you can make the argument 207 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 1: on both sides, because I'll take a guy who finished 208 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 1: in the top five every year, like, honestly, at the 209 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: end of the day, like winning the cy Young is 210 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: like a cool accolade but Jack Durgrom wanted a bunch 211 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 1: of times we to win shit. 212 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 3: So it's like, yeah, I'm saying that, it's just I'm 213 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 3: saying that's like a place to start where it's like, 214 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 3: I don't think that there's ever going to be a 215 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 3: year where he's the best picture in baseball. Again, I 216 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 3: think those days are over corn and Burns. But that's 217 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 3: also just because he's getting a little bit older now. 218 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 3: But again, other guys in their thirties have been the 219 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 3: best picture in baseball, like when Max Ers are signed 220 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 3: that to deal to Nationals. There were a lot of 221 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 3: times in his early thirties where like this is the 222 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 3: best picture in baseball. Maybe Burns can't get back there 223 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 3: because also the part with Burns, like the streuk out real, 224 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 3: he keeps dropping. He had the weird thing happened to 225 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 3: him two years ago where he had like an outward 226 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,679 Speaker 3: battle with the Brewers from office like they would they 227 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 3: they fall over it. But Davia starts technically here, I 228 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 3: neither here nor there, but like there was a fight 229 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 3: over I think it was like twenty five thousand dollars, 230 00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:57,959 Speaker 3: which is like, all right, this guy just won the 231 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,079 Speaker 3: side young he's the best player on your team to 232 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 3: Nichol and dime him as bullshit. That fuck with the 233 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,599 Speaker 3: guy's mind. And then also maybe when he goes to 234 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 3: he's pitching in a place like Milwaukee, he's like, I'm 235 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:08,679 Speaker 3: trying to get more strikeouts. And he goes to a 236 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 3: place like Baltimore where they had Mount Waltimore made rest 237 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 3: in Peace, He's like, I'll pitch more contact. That's okay, 238 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 3: I'm not really worried about the strikeouts anymore. And also 239 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 3: a team like the the Orioles last year, the rotation 240 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:20,599 Speaker 3: was decimated and decimated and decimated over time. So he's like, 241 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 3: I have to give length. I can't really be pitching. 242 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 3: I can't be fishing for strikeouts. I have to get 243 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 3: into an out of these endings as quickly as I can. 244 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 3: So a guy like him, who's always so in control, 245 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 3: who has such a mental game going on it is 246 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:31,880 Speaker 3: probably better than most players in the league. Some of 247 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 3: these granular statistical things that are happening might not be 248 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 3: as they appear on the surface. I think we have 249 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 3: to recognize that. 250 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, taking money out of the equation, which I know 251 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 1: is insane to say because it is part. 252 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 2: Of the equation, but taking money out of the equation. 253 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 1: He still is one one though for you in terms 254 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: of free agents, if you could, if you could have 255 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 1: any free agent pitcher, Corden Burns is the number one 256 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 1: guy you want. 257 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:50,960 Speaker 3: Does Sasaki count? 258 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 1: Roki doesn't count? Because Roki you want to talk about 259 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,199 Speaker 1: being a unicorn. You're gonna get a guy? Yeah, six 260 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 1: years of Major league control. Who's gonna be an ace 261 00:09:58,160 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: in your staff day one? 262 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, you're just like a twenty five percent chance you 263 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 3: get Japanese Paul Schemes for free. So he's he's my 264 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 3: number one, but he doesn't count. Then all things like 265 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:08,559 Speaker 3: if you take away money, you take away years. Yes, 266 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 3: Corbin Burns is one, but if you bring gears and 267 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,960 Speaker 3: and money back into it, he might not exactly be 268 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 3: one anymore. 269 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 2: Okay, who do you got it? One? Then? Who is 270 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 2: you gonna be your number one guy? 271 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 3: I'm a psychopath, I'm a free I'm a jerk. I 272 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 3: think my one just has to be Blake Snell. 273 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 2: It was going to be Blake Snell. Everybody who's listening 274 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 2: to this podcast and it was gonna be Blake Snell. 275 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 3: But that's it because like he's he brings the best 276 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 3: of both worlds. Because you don't, you're probably not gonna 277 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 3: have to give him more than four years. That even 278 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 3: might be tight. He's already over thirty years old. I think 279 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:36,440 Speaker 3: he's really thirty two, which is crazy to think about. 280 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 3: And I will say that the top end of Blake 281 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 3: Snell right now is better than Corbyn Burns. I really 282 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 3: do like I can easily see Blake Snell winning another 283 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 3: cy Young Award. I can see Blake Snell winning the 284 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 3: cy Young next year. Blake Snell, if he wins one, 285 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:50,199 Speaker 3: more so Young I think will be who has three 286 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:51,960 Speaker 3: cy Young Awards, because he's one of twenty two players 287 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 3: that have two. I can't say it's more than five 288 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 3: guys that even have three. 289 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: I know Roger Clemons has multiple. I'm gonna cy Young 290 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,439 Speaker 1: Awards pictures with the most cy Young war so it's 291 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 1: gonna be Randy Johnson has five. Jesus Clemens has I 292 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 1: think seven. That's absolutely insane. Greg Maddicks has four, Steve 293 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 1: Carlton has four, Justin Verlander has three. Maxers Or has three. 294 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 1: Two former mets Hey, Clinton Kershaw Pedro another former met 295 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:18,679 Speaker 1: Jim Palmer. 296 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,719 Speaker 2: Tom Sever obviously missed it. 297 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 3: Happy birthday, Tome sever. 298 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 1: Have birthday tom sever There's a lot of guys with two. 299 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 1: But he would all of a sudden get into the 300 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 1: conversation with guys who are literally all in the Hall 301 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:29,200 Speaker 1: of Fame. 302 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 3: And It's the thing about Blake Snell is that somehow, 303 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 3: like in his thirties, he just keeps getting better. Like 304 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 3: I know, last year was really really weird for Blake Snell, 305 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 3: like he's it was a good microcosm for the entire 306 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,719 Speaker 3: Blake Snell experience because San Francisco signed him in March 307 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:43,560 Speaker 3: because no one wants to give a monster deal. He 308 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,439 Speaker 3: never ramped up right, He came back too soon. He 309 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 3: immediately sucked. He got hurt, he sucked, he had a kid, 310 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 3: and then he got hurt again, and then he didn't 311 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,439 Speaker 3: really actually start his season until July. But then at 312 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 3: that point, like through six starts here and there in 313 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 3: between April, May and June starts nine point five vra terrible, 314 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 3: as bad as it could possibly get. Then he comes 315 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,439 Speaker 3: back in July one point two to three ERA third, 316 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,199 Speaker 3: the eight percent strike I raided fourteen innings, lowest ERA 317 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,440 Speaker 3: in the league from July onward by zero point six. 318 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 3: The best strikeout rate by six percentage points over Paul Skeens, 319 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,079 Speaker 3: the best strikeout minus walk ratio in the league. The 320 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 3: only pitchers in baseball that had more f WOUR than 321 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 3: Snell from July on or with Terra Scooball and Chris 322 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 3: Sale the two say Young Award winners yep. And he 323 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 3: made the fourteen starts. Like I said, six of them, 324 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 3: I mean ten of them. He went at least six innings. 325 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 3: So he was the best pitcher in baseball for four months. 326 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 3: And I'll tell you this, this is gonna be fucked 327 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 3: up to here. If we had that exact shape of 328 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:40,199 Speaker 3: a season he was on the Mets last year, might 329 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 3: the won the World Series. I mean, listen, he's if 330 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:44,959 Speaker 3: you impoured Blake Snell onto this Mets team, and he 331 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,719 Speaker 3: did that starting in July. I don't know who beats us. 332 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 1: Here's the thing with Blake Snell, though, it is either 333 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 1: going to go down as one of the well, actually, 334 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: here's what would happen. It will go down as one 335 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 1: of the most influential Mets contracts ever given out reason 336 00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 1: being it's either gonna be what helps you win a 337 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 1: World Series or it's gonna be what absolutely kills this 338 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 1: pitching rotation because there is no in between for Blake Snell. 339 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 1: One hundred innings of Blake Snell nets cannot have that. 340 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 1: There's no world where you can give Blake Snell thirty 341 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:11,680 Speaker 1: million dollars a year and he gives you one hundred. 342 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 2: He has to give you one eight. He has to. 343 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 1: There's no way around it. And if he gives you 344 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:19,080 Speaker 1: any less, you're fucked. There's that's the scary thing with him. 345 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 3: For the best part of aout, Blakes now every single 346 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 3: time in his career store one hundred eight the innings, 347 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 3: which is exactly twice he won the cy Young Awards 348 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 3: both times. Like that's that right, There is the epitome 349 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 3: of like scared money, don't make none, Like that's it. 350 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:31,319 Speaker 3: Like you want to get the guy with the highest 351 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 3: upside almost in baseball, you take the shot. I mean, 352 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 3: think about this last year from the brace perspective of 353 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 3: Chris Sale. A lot of people thought that was like 354 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 3: a real desperation played by them. Chrisale thirty six, thirty 355 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:43,720 Speaker 3: seven years old and maybe thirty five, thirty six whatever 356 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 3: he is, Like, you're gonna take Chris Sale now if 357 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 3: he hasn't pitched really at all or much of four 358 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 3: straight years. Best pitcher in baseball wins is High Young. 359 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,079 Speaker 3: The whole reason that team even even got to the playoffs. 360 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 3: We're gonna talk more about this in a second quick 361 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:54,559 Speaker 3: break though. 362 00:13:54,600 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 1: First, Blake Snell when he the problem with him is 363 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 1: never how good of a pitcher he is. 364 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 3: I'm a seco, I know, but isn't it? But like what, 365 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 3: that's that's why you do it. You take this shot, 366 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 3: like I if you want to be safe, let's go 367 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 3: get Max Free. Let's talk about him a little bit too, 368 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:15,960 Speaker 3: But like that's he's the anti Blake Snell. 369 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, and Max Free doesn't have a nearly fifty percent 370 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 1: with rate on his curveball, a nearly fifty percent with 371 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 1: rate on his change up, a near fifty percent with 372 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 1: rate on his slider. 373 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 2: He doesn't have that. He doesn't have three pitches that 374 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 2: people don't touch. 375 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:30,200 Speaker 3: Here's the whole thing with Blake Snell right here. Here's 376 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 3: him summed up in one in one sentence. Blake Snell 377 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 3: had a nine point five one ERA in July first 378 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 3: and declined to thirty million dollar player option. 379 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it. 380 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 3: That's what I like to think about like people put 381 00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 3: him in the same category Jordan Montgommer. Last year, you 382 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 3: can even. 383 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 2: Say this too. He had a nine point one ERRA 384 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 2: on July first. 385 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 1: He finished the year with a three point one two five. Yeah, 386 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 1: he dropped six runs from he was unhitsable. You remember 387 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 1: that game we watched. We were hanging out with Ernie 388 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 1: and Carlos in the Hampton's and it was Snell versus 389 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 1: Snow versus Sail. Yeah, and I think I think they 390 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 1: each had like fourteen strikeouts and seven innings. 391 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 3: They were just going bar for bar, inning for inning, 392 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 3: and we were like, oh my god. Friend Carlos, who 393 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 3: doesn't even watch baseball, was like this is sick. 394 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 1: We're like, yeah, to be a ton of money against 395 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 1: the Reds and Andrew Rabbit when they had a duel 396 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 1: and he had I think like thirteen strikeouts. 397 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 2: He had to go all nine innings to get it. 398 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 2: For me, it was fantastic. 399 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 3: The cool thing about Snell last year too, just to 400 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 3: get granular for a second, like he got a lot better, 401 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 3: Like he made adjustments last year. I think that was 402 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 3: aided up by what the Giants were doing with that 403 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 3: team before Buster Posy and now was taken over to 404 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 3: bring them back to the promised Lamb. But his change 405 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 3: up was always a big problem pitch for him. Snell. 406 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 3: He last year he added a couple of inches of drop, 407 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 3: a couple of inches a run on it. It became 408 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 3: significantly better. Hitters were chasing it more often. He was 409 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 3: much more comfortable throwing that pitch against ridies. We're in 410 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 3: the past. He was kind of just still still disgusting, 411 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 3: but still spamming the fastball, slider, fastball slider even against 412 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 3: the ridies, which was still good, but it wasn't great. 413 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 3: He also got a little more comfortable that curveball. He 414 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 3: threw that change and curveball more against the rithys hitters. 415 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 3: Chase had both of those more often. Hitter swung and 416 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 3: missed at both of them more often, and that just 417 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 3: saved the slider for lefties. And you put all those 418 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 3: four pitches together and he did. Had had a guy 419 00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 3: with two Cy Young Awards. He had probably the best 420 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 3: run of his entire career in his early thirties. After 421 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 3: he had a nine point five ERA on July first, 422 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 3: Like it was amazing, and yeah, I think about Blake 423 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 3: Snell pisses me off. I am fucking done with the 424 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 3: narrative that he hasn't pitched deep in the games. I'm 425 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 3: done with that. It happened one time in a fake 426 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 3: World series four years ago, and that's the only thing 427 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 3: everyone ever ever talks about Blake Snell. Now, first of all, 428 00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 3: when you come out of the game as a pitcher, 429 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 3: it's not your decision. Eximply it's not your call. It's 430 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 3: not your call's he's not waving to the Doug guy. 431 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 3: He's not Anthony Richard sing it to come out of 432 00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 3: this game. He's not pulling himself out of the game. 433 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 2: Right. 434 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 3: And then, first of all, just told us now he's 435 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 3: getting more efficient with how he's facing his battles. So 436 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 3: last year when he was going through and he was 437 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 3: pitching deep into games, again, ten out of the fourteen 438 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 3: Stars win at least six innings. He's getting more fishing, 439 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 3: he's getting out quicker. And twenty twenty three, when he 440 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 3: had a really good season, won the cy Young before 441 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 3: he went to free your free agent, he threw at 442 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 3: least six innings twenty times. You remember the twenty twenty 443 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 3: three season, right, just put yourself back in twenty twenty three. 444 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 3: Mine for a second. Okay, Blake Snell through six innings 445 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 3: twenty times. Yeah, Zen love that. Corden Burns only did 446 00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 3: that twenty one times. Logan Gilbert only did that twenty 447 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 3: many times. Santi al Contra, the king of going and 448 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,159 Speaker 3: get deep in the games, only did that twenty times, 449 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:05,160 Speaker 3: same as Blake Snell's. 450 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 1: That's a good stat right there with Sandy because people 451 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 1: will always bring up he goes so deep. 452 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 3: I have another go in Mets fans. You guys really 453 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 3: remember Codai Sanga in twenty twenty three, right, he had 454 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:16,680 Speaker 3: an amazing season. Amazing season. He only pitched six ending 455 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:20,119 Speaker 3: seventeen times, fewer times than Blake Snell. I hate that 456 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 3: everyone goes this narrative. Blake Sell he's a five and 457 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:23,680 Speaker 3: die five and die doesn't pitch deap in the games. 458 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 3: This could be absolutely get a lightning bull gets smited 459 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:28,920 Speaker 3: for this after what they did the Shamanaya last year 460 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 3: and next year Blake Snell be able to five and 461 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 3: dive again on the Mets, but he's going to pitch 462 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:35,120 Speaker 3: deep in the games. He's even been vocal he wants 463 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 3: to pitch deeper into games. He said something he can do, 464 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 3: he wants to do that he will do when he 465 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 3: goes to his new team. 466 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:41,360 Speaker 1: He tried to fight Kevin Cash. He was like, I'm 467 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:42,880 Speaker 1: not coming out of this games, Yes. 468 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,200 Speaker 3: You are, and then we all saw what happened again. 469 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 3: I'll whatever, not that gonna hold out against Kevin Cash exactly. 470 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 3: But I think that Blake Snell just offers this cantalizing 471 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,400 Speaker 3: upside without the longest, long term contract that really would 472 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:57,479 Speaker 3: fit I think what the Mets are trying to do 473 00:17:57,560 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 3: really well. 474 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I like I said this, there's a 475 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 1: world where Blake Snell either is the reason we win 476 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 1: World Series along with hopefully want so to and other pieces. 477 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:07,919 Speaker 1: But he could be the pitching side of why we 478 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 1: win a World Series. He could also super be the 479 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 1: reason why the Mets can't actually ever get over the 480 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:13,880 Speaker 1: hump because he's just not there. 481 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, he also might despise New York. He might cross 482 00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 3: he might cross New York off the list. That's before 483 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:20,399 Speaker 3: the process even begins. 484 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:22,440 Speaker 1: I don't think so he wants he wants the bag. 485 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 1: And there's there's one team that hands out the bag 486 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:25,879 Speaker 1: right now. It's the New York Mets and the Dodgers. 487 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:27,880 Speaker 1: Those are the two teams. So We'll have to wait 488 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 1: and see a guy who's a little bit more safe. 489 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 1: I think to say, you said the Anti Blakes a 490 00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 1: little more chill, Yeah, a little more chill West Coast 491 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 1: guy Max Freed. He's someone who I'm gonna I'm gonna 492 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:41,199 Speaker 1: have a bad take, and I'm ready to have it. 493 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 2: I don't want him on the Mets. I just I can't. 494 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,120 Speaker 1: I can't swallow the pill of Max Freed on the Mets. 495 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 1: And it really has nothing to do with him as 496 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 1: a pitcher and everything to do with him being in Atlanta. 497 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 2: Brave who's a lefty, who's white. He probably played hockey. 498 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 1: I don't know Tom Glavin, That's all I see over 499 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 1: in my head, over and over again the last time 500 00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 1: we took this great lefty Braves pitcher. I know Tom 501 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,479 Speaker 1: Glavin was way older, way older. It was the end 502 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 1: of his career. But I'll never forgive Tom Glavin. I 503 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: hate the Braves, and I just I don't know. It 504 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 1: would be so so exactly what you'd expect for Max 505 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 1: Freed to come here and suck. 506 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, but you're also talking to the guy who's literally 507 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 3: never sucked. He's never been bad. Yeah, he's never even 508 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 3: been close to bad. His highest the error in his 509 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,640 Speaker 3: career for full seasons like three point four. Like he's 510 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 3: just good. Like the more I look at Max Fried, 511 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 3: the more I think about him, and the more it 512 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 3: seems like where his contract is gonna wind up, the 513 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,880 Speaker 3: more I kind of can't stop myself from liking him. 514 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 2: No, man, and this is it's weird. 515 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:36,399 Speaker 3: I don't know. I just I fucking love a crafty 516 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 3: lefty like Freed. Heckn spin it. He's got so many 517 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 3: little tricks. He's got all these little things in his bag, 518 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 3: Like he's got the distinct color, he's got the sweeper, 519 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,639 Speaker 3: he's got the slyther. He has a fastball, he has 520 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:48,640 Speaker 3: a sinker. Neither those two shapes or vello are good, 521 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:50,639 Speaker 3: but he has him. He shows him. His changeup has 522 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:52,399 Speaker 3: come such a long way since he was a young pitcher. 523 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 3: And his curveball thing that was always his bread and butter, 524 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:57,720 Speaker 3: is still just so fucking nasty. It's incredible. It's such 525 00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 3: a deep bag. Like I love pictures with deep bags 526 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:01,879 Speaker 3: like that. Hey, there's never having any idea what's coming. 527 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:05,400 Speaker 3: Last year against left handed batters, Max Freed threw four 528 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 3: different pitches at least twenty percent of the time. 529 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:08,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's tough. 530 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:10,360 Speaker 3: That's crazy. You have no idea what's coming, and three 531 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 3: of them against the ridies, so it's just like you're 532 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:14,639 Speaker 3: in these at bats and like, I love that Baseball 533 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 3: Savanta's just really good pit graphic where it shows like 534 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 3: pie charts based on every single count and handed this 535 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,800 Speaker 3: for a pitcher and Max Freed's looked like fucking chaos 536 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 3: because you just don't know what's coming. It's just he's 537 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:26,239 Speaker 3: a fastball, he's change up, he's a curve ball, he's 538 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 3: a slyly, he's sweeper. It's it's like there's so much 539 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 3: stuff going on. It's like I love that. The command's 540 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 3: always good, the velocity is holding strong. In ninety four, 541 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 3: if he loses two ticks, I'm gonna be really really 542 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,640 Speaker 3: scared about that. He's always been amazing in the playoffs 543 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,120 Speaker 3: like that, It's always been really good in big games. 544 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:41,959 Speaker 3: Kicher like he has that kind of like tenasity to him. 545 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 3: He's got the big pad degree, high first round pick. 546 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 3: Like to me, he he kind of reminds me a 547 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:48,399 Speaker 3: lot of someone we both liked last year, Aaron Nola, 548 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 3: but much more dog to be honest with you. 549 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,440 Speaker 1: Definitely way more dog than Aaron Nole. There's no doubt 550 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 1: about that. He's he's won big games. 551 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 3: So like that, That's where I started thinking about this. 552 00:20:57,640 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 3: Like my question for you is why'd we like Noel 553 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,240 Speaker 3: so much? Not Free is just a jersey? Yeah, I 554 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 3: think it might be. 555 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:05,680 Speaker 1: And I think part of it too is the fact 556 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 1: that like a lot of Braves fans like, we're pumping 557 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 1: how Max Freed is like one of the best pictures 558 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 1: in baseball. I don't ever hears saying Aaron Nola is 559 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 1: one of the best pictures in baseball. In fact, he 560 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 1: just kept commonly gets under underrated, if anything, but Braves 561 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:20,960 Speaker 1: fans were obnoxious with thinking Max Freed was in the 562 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 1: same level as like Jacob de Gram and like those guys, 563 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 1: it's like he was never there. 564 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:27,680 Speaker 2: He can be a very very good picture. And like 565 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 2: you said, he's the anti Blake Snell too. 566 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:31,880 Speaker 1: Like Snell thirty four percent carry last year, Max Freed 567 00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 1: twenty three percent with an eight percent walk right. Like 568 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:36,479 Speaker 1: those numbers, those don't scare you at all. Twenty three 569 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:37,920 Speaker 1: percent carry eight percent walk right. 570 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 3: Not again, I get I'm not telling you that Max 571 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 3: Fried is like the ace of all these Yeah, I 572 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:44,639 Speaker 3: got that. Yeah, I think like in a vacuum there 573 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 3: there's no conversation whether or not like in one year sample, 574 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 3: we're gonna expect Max Freed, if he's in Mets, be 575 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:50,800 Speaker 3: better than calla sanga, you know what I mean. But 576 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 3: it's just like if I have to sign this again. 577 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:54,479 Speaker 3: I also I wouldn't sign him a seven year deal. 578 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 3: I definitely don't do that either. Like, no, absolutely, I'd 579 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 3: love this. At four or five years, I'd be okay, 580 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:01,440 Speaker 3: hay with it. At six, I would think about it. 581 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:02,879 Speaker 3: I'd like bit my lip, but I'd be fine with it. 582 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 3: But more than that, I don't think I would do 583 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 3: It's just free to me. I see, I see his 584 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:08,399 Speaker 3: incredible longevity. 585 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 2: To free. 586 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 3: I see a guy who's always gonna have another trick 587 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 3: up his sleeve. He's really good picking up new pictures. 588 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 3: He's really good adjusting his shapes. He's really good hitting 589 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:17,359 Speaker 3: the spot when he really really has to. He's pitching 590 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 3: a lot of big games. He just seems like he 591 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 3: has that that edge to him that makes a picture 592 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 3: stick around for a very very long time. And I 593 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 3: don't know, it's something that it's hard to hard to 594 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 3: quantify with the strike card wait and walk right, but 595 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 3: I can just like see it and I can feel it. 596 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 3: And mostly because of how many pitches he has, like 597 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 3: how much he could he can mix it around, and 598 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 3: like I said before, those lefties that can spind it 599 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 3: just feel like they'll be around forever. It's just he 600 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,120 Speaker 3: he does so many little things well, like so many 601 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 3: more than most of these modern pitchers do. It's just 602 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,399 Speaker 3: he's a pitcher. That that's my quip for you, not 603 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 3: a thrower. He's a pitcher. 604 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:45,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's fair, that's fair. 605 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 1: I was like, I just I also get PTSD two 606 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:49,639 Speaker 1: from another left handed picture in this division by the 607 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:53,200 Speaker 1: name of Patrick Corbin, and I'm just like, yeah, that's fine. 608 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 2: But he had like way more jump off the page. 609 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 1: He maybe he's a little closer Blake snow though, as 610 00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 1: a free agent, because Corbin that twenty eighteen year before 611 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 1: he signed with the Nationals, his numbers were out of 612 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:06,440 Speaker 1: control good, they were disgusting. He had the highest k 613 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,159 Speaker 1: RID of his career. Wasn't walking anybody who's healthy. He 614 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,879 Speaker 1: had He threw innings that season and then obviously, I 615 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 1: mean they won the World series in twenty nineteen, so 616 00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:17,639 Speaker 1: we'd take it, but the rest of it was absolutely terrible. 617 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:18,880 Speaker 2: He was unpitchable at times. 618 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, but you're still throwing that's like that's a ninety 619 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:23,159 Speaker 3: one mile an hour fastball. That doesn't have like the 620 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 3: incredible like jump off the page hop that Blake Snell 621 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:28,040 Speaker 3: has from Ma Lefty And also again even Snell is 622 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 3: a bigger bag of tricks. Like back then, Corbyn was 623 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 3: just slyer slider slider, slider, slider, sly slide as much 624 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 3: as he could curve balls once in a while to 625 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:35,879 Speaker 3: get the right of these, as much as he had to. 626 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 3: But it was just I don't know, Snell's bag is 627 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 3: deeper and Freed's bag is significantly deeper. Freeze got trust such, Yeah, 628 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 3: Freed has a satchel over there. Corbyin was like Corbin 629 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,000 Speaker 3: was just such a glaring red flag. He he only 630 00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 3: had one way to get hitters out, Like if you 631 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:49,440 Speaker 3: don't swing at the slide there, I don't have any 632 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:51,440 Speaker 3: other options. Yeah, please please don't, please don't try and 633 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 3: hit this. 634 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 2: No, I just I don't know. Max Max Freed in 635 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 2: Ames Jersy would like be so weird. It would hurt 636 00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 2: my head a little bit, But. 637 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 3: I think the other side that would be fucking awesome. 638 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:02,399 Speaker 2: If he was great, Oh my god, it'd be amazing. 639 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 2: He'd be so sick. 640 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:05,479 Speaker 3: It's just it would be nice to get that one 641 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 3: over on them. 642 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:06,400 Speaker 2: Again. 643 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 3: I'm not even doing this in a vengeful way. I'm 644 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 3: just saying, like, I think he is good. I don't 645 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 3: think they're going to be able to pay him. I 646 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 3: don't even think they want to pay him at this point. 647 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:15,640 Speaker 3: And I think it was just he's another guy who 648 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:17,639 Speaker 3: I also think like he'd be like New York, like, 649 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:18,399 Speaker 3: I don't know if he'd like that. 650 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, that was gonna be my next question. 651 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:22,240 Speaker 3: I haven't seen anything about the Mets and Max for it, 652 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 3: I feel no, I've I haven't seen him at anything 653 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:25,440 Speaker 3: about the Mets in any of these pictures. But I 654 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 3: just seem like they seem like they're dead set focused 655 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 3: on so Tho in like a very respectful way. Yeah, 656 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 3: and they should be. 657 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, we've seen some comments from you know, 658 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 1: the other side of about Wan Soto stuff, so we 659 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:37,159 Speaker 1: could talk about that a little bit later. Last guy 660 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:39,159 Speaker 1: to mention, just because this is a name that I 661 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 1: feel like Mets fans, Mets Twitter, everybody wants to talk 662 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: about Shane Bieber. He is the guy that is perceived 663 00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:48,520 Speaker 1: as what could be maybe a potential ace in the 664 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:50,920 Speaker 1: future for a team, if that's the Mets or not. 665 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 1: But really you dive under the hood, probably probably not 666 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 1: the case. He's I'm concerned with him. He's someone who 667 00:24:58,040 --> 00:24:59,840 Speaker 1: I wouldn't touch with a ten foot poll right now. 668 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 1: I would let someone else get him, right. I don't 669 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:02,479 Speaker 1: want to be the team right now. 670 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:05,200 Speaker 3: I totally agree with you. I don't think there's there's 671 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,640 Speaker 3: anything that I don't I don't I don't really see 672 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 3: it with Shane Bieber at all. Like here's the wildcard 673 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:10,959 Speaker 3: that get that he has the Siang Award. He had 674 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,399 Speaker 3: those really good years this year when he got when 675 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 3: he went down Tommy John surgery, he looked like he 676 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 3: came out of gate blazing, looked like he's gonna have 677 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 3: another like classic Shane Bieber season. When he went down, 678 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 3: when he went on the shelf, he had twelve innings 679 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:22,360 Speaker 3: nowhere and runs twenty strikeouts. 680 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 2: He was disgusting. 681 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:24,959 Speaker 3: And the big thing with Bieber is that he got 682 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 3: his fastball back over ninety two miles an hour for 683 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 3: the first time in a few years. After that, velosity 684 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:32,640 Speaker 3: fell for three straight seasons. But also maybe that's why 685 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:34,399 Speaker 3: he got hurt. Maybe got hurt, tried to air it 686 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:35,919 Speaker 3: out in his contract year, and he was like, oh 687 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 3: I got hurt ninety two. 688 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,360 Speaker 2: Like if it drops, if it drops even a smidge, 689 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 2: you're fucked. 690 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:43,119 Speaker 3: Oh well, this is the whole thing. I think everyone 691 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:46,919 Speaker 3: kind of anchors onto Shane Bieber's twenty twenty season as 692 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 3: like he's so could be one of the best pitchers 693 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 3: in baseball, which that was a sixty game season. That 694 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 3: was that was the third of the baseball season. 695 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:52,680 Speaker 2: It was fake. 696 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, And then but twenty nineteen was also really really 697 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 3: good in the rabbitball year. Twenty twenty two was also amazing. 698 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:00,440 Speaker 3: But twenty twenty one he had a shoulder injury that 699 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 3: cropped up in June that put him on the IL 700 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,359 Speaker 3: for three months, and when he came back, he was 701 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 3: throwing ninety one and he's been throwing ninety one since then. 702 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 3: And that to me is the thing where I'm like, 703 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:12,159 Speaker 3: I don't trust this guy at all. 704 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:15,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, especially because I don't think the contract 705 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 1: like I I think people who aren't necessarily thinking the 706 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:19,960 Speaker 1: most are like, oh, yeah, we'll give him like a 707 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 1: Mania Severino contract, Like yeah, like one year, ten, twelve, 708 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,120 Speaker 1: fourteen million, he's gonna be wanting twenty million dollars. You're 709 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 1: gonna be wanting multiple years because he has that cy 710 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:31,159 Speaker 1: young something that a lot of those guys were in 711 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:33,919 Speaker 1: that bargain been ranged never will get, never will come 712 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 1: close to No. 713 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 3: I think you probably it's probably similar a woodriff guy 714 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,160 Speaker 3: last year, what was that two forty I was about 715 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 3: to say two for forty is the number. I think, Yeah, 716 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 3: here's fifteen million dollars to rehab. Next year, you're gonna 717 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:46,639 Speaker 3: get twenty five million dollars to pitch. That's kind of 718 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:48,159 Speaker 3: what this is. And then like I get think some 719 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,639 Speaker 3: teams that would be smart, but I don't know to me, 720 00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:53,359 Speaker 3: like Hodgers that would be smart. Yeah, you had the 721 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 3: shoulder injury three years ago, and then he just lost 722 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 3: the fell a couple miles an hour, and then you 723 00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,400 Speaker 3: have two straight years of elbow injuries. Then they result 724 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:00,879 Speaker 3: in time of john surgery. And then like when he 725 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 3: was at the top of his game, he was throwing 726 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 3: a ninety mile an hour color that was disgusting. Now 727 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 3: it's just like an eighty five mile hour color. It 728 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 3: looks like everybody else is. 729 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 2: In the league. 730 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:09,960 Speaker 3: The curve knuckle curve in the slaughter is still disgusting. 731 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 3: But if if you ask me, like, I think he's 732 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 3: a lot closer in skilled to like Manaya Kakuchi those 733 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:17,199 Speaker 3: guys than he is to the other three guys we've 734 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:17,720 Speaker 3: mentioned here. 735 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I just I don't really want to be 736 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:21,199 Speaker 2: the team that pays him and tries to get him. 737 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 3: Right. She seems like a blinking red light. This is 738 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:25,920 Speaker 3: going to be a disaster, not a disaster, but you're 739 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:27,800 Speaker 3: not You're not getting an ACE. And like the whole 740 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:29,200 Speaker 3: point of the how we phrased this episode is that 741 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 3: this is how the Mets can try and find an ACE. 742 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 3: And I want to mention him because I don't think 743 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 3: he's anywhere close to the guys who actually could be 744 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 3: considered ace. 745 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,400 Speaker 1: Like No, And then we got to just talk about 746 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 1: Roki Sasaki for a minute, because there's been some some 747 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 1: information that we've been learned about Roki one maybe doesn't. 748 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:43,400 Speaker 2: Want to be in LA. 749 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 1: Maybe maybe want to be in LA is apparently one 750 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:49,159 Speaker 1: of the rumors that's going around, not to mention he 751 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 1: has the same asor in as code Icenga. Code Icenga 752 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 1: pitches for the New York Mets, and you darvish and 753 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:55,639 Speaker 1: you don't worry about that. 754 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:56,679 Speaker 2: That's what we're talking about here. 755 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 1: We're talking about qote Is Icenga and then secondly his 756 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 1: pitching coach for Chiboote. Masado Yoshi was a prominent former 757 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 1: Mets starter was in fact, one of the very first 758 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:09,119 Speaker 1: MBB pitchers in Major League Baseball. When you pitch for 759 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:12,160 Speaker 1: the nineteen ninety eight Mets, there's connections all over the place. 760 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 1: I'm Pepe Sylvia in it right now. I'm connecting all 761 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 1: the dots. 762 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 3: I'll I'll drop to my knees if we sign okay Sasaki, yeah, no, 763 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 3: will like I'll I'll freak out like drop dropping to well, 764 00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 3: I was like thanking to giving thanks to the to 765 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 3: the universe, to the world.

So though, but Sasaki is he 770 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 3: I just I couldn't he You're getting someone who could 771 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 3: be the best pitcher in baseball for free. Yeah, like 772 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 3: when he was pitching the World Baseball Classic and he 773 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 3: was dropping a hundred two mile at our fastballs with 774 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 3: splinters that made major eye spin like that that you 775 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 3: literally could get. You could get out like Paul Skins. 776 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 2: Japanese Paul sk there could you. 777 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 3: It's like you did you have a twenty percent chance 778 00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 3: to get Japanese pall skiing.

It's available right now. And the other 781 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 3: thing that's interesting about Sasaki that's kind of leaked out 782 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 3: from his camp is that he really values teams and 783 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:13,479 Speaker 3: like development systems that one are good at keeping pitchers 784 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 3: healthy and two can just develop them and help them 785 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 3: get better. We talked about this a lot this year. 786 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:21,719 Speaker 3: Big ups to the Mets this year, Jeremy Haffner, Eric 787 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 3: y Aeger's, David Sterns for what they were able to 788 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 3: do with Sean and Iya, Luis Everrino, all these guys 789 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:26,600 Speaker 3: in the staff. 790 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 2: Dude, even Kana had a good year. 791 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 3: Sevrino was healthy. Everyone pitched really well, like we have 792 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 3: we definitely if that's what they care about, we have 793 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 3: we have we can do both of those things. We 794 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 3: can definitely boast that. And David Stearns went and pay 795 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 3: his respect in person during the season. 796 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:49,680 Speaker 1: And then of course we're in the news yesterday grabbing 797 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:53,800 Speaker 1: a Dominican outfielder whose name starts with a J. Last 798 00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 1: name starts with an S. Four letters for both of them. 799 00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 1: That's correct, Jose Siri is your newest New York Met 800 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 1: center fielder. James tell the people at home. Initial reactions, 801 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 1: what were they that the Mets got Jose Sirie and. 802 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 3: This reactions were quite literally amazing, Like, I think this 803 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 3: was one of the Again, this is gonna be very hyperbolic. 804 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 3: This is one of the coolest moves I could have 805 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 3: seen the Mets making. Another one that, like we said, 806 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 3: we tried to do our dream offseason last week talking 807 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 3: about how much the Mets we're gonna need the center 808 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 3: fielder that they were gonna get someone we really didn't 809 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,800 Speaker 3: see coming. Jose Siri is just simply like an athletic specimen. 810 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 3: He can run really fast, you could throw the ball 811 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 3: really hard, tracks down everything in center field. He takes 812 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 3: daddy hacks, He puts the ball on the barrel as 813 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 3: good as anybody in baseball relative to how much contact 814 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 3: he makes. Yes, yes, that's the thing with Jose Siri. 815 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 3: Like all of those things I just said, he does 816 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 3: super super well. And he's gonna cost between two and 817 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 3: three million dollars next year and has two more years 818 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 3: a team control after that. So we just got an 819 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 3: elite center fielder for the next three seasons. Again, we're 820 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 3: gonna do the downsides in a little bit. The least 821 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 3: centerfielder for the next three seasons. He's gonna cost us defensively, 822 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,959 Speaker 3: defensively with some pop, and it's going to cost us 823 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 3: like ten million dollars for all three eleven. 824 00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 1: Maybe ninety ninth percentile sprint speed. We know that the 825 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:09,080 Speaker 1: Mets desperately could use more athleticism on this team. Ninety 826 00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 1: two percentile twenty nine point nine sprint speed. That is 827 00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:14,800 Speaker 1: one of the fast players in baseball ninety nine percent 828 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 1: tile in OAA at sixteen. So yeah, Harrison Bader and 829 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 1: him right there. To the best defensive center fielders in baseball, 830 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 1: we got the one who hits the ball a little 831 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 1: bit better too. He's got a cannon of an arm 832 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 1: like you said ninety seven percent tile and the barrel 833 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 1: rate is the barrel rates so fun Like you said, 834 00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 1: Daddy hacks. When he touches the baseball with his bat, 835 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 1: it goes boom. The problem is and now now we'll 836 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:38,120 Speaker 1: talk about the negatives the Jose Serie, the negatives being 837 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 1: that he doesn't touch the baseball very often. He had 838 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 1: a thirty seven percent k rate last year, nearly CV eight. 839 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 1: That was the worst in Major League Baseball for guys 840 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 1: who played as much as he did. That was the 841 00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 1: first percentile. I don't think I've said that almost ever 842 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 1: in any piece of content I've. 843 00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 2: Ever created my life. 844 00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 1: First percentile he was first percentile and with rate forty 845 00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,240 Speaker 1: one point nine percent. With rate which means half the 846 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:02,760 Speaker 1: time he swings, he's not hitting the baseball, which is 847 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,600 Speaker 1: almost insane to say out loud, doesn't make sense. 848 00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 2: He chases a ton. 849 00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 1: He he doesn't really do a lot great at the plate, 850 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 1: except for when he does hit the baseball, it gets 851 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 1: hit hard and well. 852 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 3: But that's the whole reason. The gal like Jose Siri 853 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 3: is incredibly available all the time, like this where you 854 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,760 Speaker 3: could trade Eric rds go gather and Eric Corza, I mean, 855 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:23,160 Speaker 3: the change up was good. I think Mets fans got 856 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:25,520 Speaker 3: a bad He got raw shake with Mets fans. He 857 00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 3: came in that game against the Pirates and he then 858 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 3: they were like, get the middle of the lineupbout and 859 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 3: he was like, I don't think I can. And then 860 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 3: that kind that kind of that kind of ruined him 861 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 3: for that. But they did the Scared Street meme where 862 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 3: the kids sleeping and they shot not right now, please 863 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,080 Speaker 3: not right now. But I get I think this will 864 00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 3: be a fine pitch. That's just this is just simply 865 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:45,720 Speaker 3: the Rays raising. This is what the Rays do. Jose 866 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,360 Speaker 3: Siri just went from league him into him to two 867 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:50,240 Speaker 3: between two and three million, and they're like, we could 868 00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:51,920 Speaker 3: take that two million and do anything else with it 869 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:53,840 Speaker 3: rather than have Jose Siri, because we're the Rays and 870 00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 3: we develop athletic players like giant Luca's gonna play center 871 00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 3: field for the next year and he's going to be 872 00:32:57,800 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 3: finding it. They just got Dylan Carlson the last traded 873 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,400 Speaker 3: for free. He's gonna be making more than Serie. Everything 874 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 3: just got extraneous. He got a little tight, So let's 875 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 3: do that. But the other thing about series is that 876 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 3: it's it's he just he just he just he just 877 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:10,760 Speaker 3: goes up there and takes a hack. Yes, like the 878 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:13,080 Speaker 3: barrel percentage that you should see on baseball savon his 879 00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 3: barrel per contact one of the best league as there appearance. Yeah, 880 00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 3: barrels per swing really bad, bad, very bad. Back to 881 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:22,880 Speaker 3: back down is like the forty percentile on all of baseballs. 882 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 3: But that's also that's fine. You got him for a 883 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:28,480 Speaker 3: quadruple a reliever who might know the major team out 884 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 3: of opening day and you had a gaping hole centerfield 885 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 3: and we said it, Davis Sers was not going to 886 00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:34,840 Speaker 3: the season without a defensive first center fielder. I said 887 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:36,360 Speaker 3: that over and over again. Now he did it, he 888 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 3: got it. And some people were like, oh, this maybe 889 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 3: this is just too many outfits make the team too crowded. 890 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 3: When the when the season ended last year, guys, it 891 00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:44,760 Speaker 3: was Winker, it was Marte, it was Baither, it was 892 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 3: Tyrone Taylor, and it was Brandon Woe on the roster. 893 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 2: And that was with J. J. 894 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:49,680 Speaker 3: Martinez on the roster who could do nothing besides be 895 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 3: the DH. 896 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I was gonna say, I think Mets fans are 897 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 1: gonna have to really come to the fact that the 898 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 1: Mets are not signing a DH this offseason. 899 00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:00,880 Speaker 3: That DH spot is going to well, we'll see what happens. 900 00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 2: I guess it depends. I guess it depends on Wan Soto. 901 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:07,520 Speaker 1: But it seems like the plan right now, if everything 902 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: goes right, is that the DH spot is going to 903 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 1: be open and is going to be a revolving door 904 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:13,160 Speaker 1: to be able to get guys into the lineup rather 905 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:15,000 Speaker 1: than and give them a day off in the field. 906 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 3: And I think that was the plan last year until J. J. 907 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,839 Speaker 3: Martinez became more or less free in the last two 908 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:20,399 Speaker 3: weeks of March. 909 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, and guess what, there will be another DH two 910 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 1: that will become available for free in March at some 911 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:26,359 Speaker 1: point as well. 912 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 2: Like that position. As we've learned now now that every 913 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:30,759 Speaker 2: team gets a DH, people just don't pay for it. 914 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,040 Speaker 3: No, you don't need to pay for it. I think 915 00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 3: that's also something that David cerns. I don't think. I 916 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:36,960 Speaker 3: don't think the way last season. Why, I'm not gonna 917 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:38,719 Speaker 3: say he regretted this. I'm just gonna I think that 918 00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:41,800 Speaker 3: his original plan was We're gonna use this spot to rotate, 919 00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 3: to give guys a break, to give guys day off. 920 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:45,640 Speaker 3: I think last year, truthfully, the plan was to use 921 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:48,279 Speaker 3: that to give Mark Ventos a better shot to make 922 00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 3: the opening day roster. Yes, and I'll say this, this 923 00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 3: will be you want you want to get put in 924 00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:54,239 Speaker 3: the pretzel right now? Yeah, If Mark Vantos is on 925 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 3: the roster of the whole season, is it better or 926 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:58,680 Speaker 3: worse than having those those couple months of J. J. Martinez? 927 00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,839 Speaker 1: Oh man, that is a freak and Pretzel. Did Marciento's 928 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:02,839 Speaker 1: need to get sent down? 929 00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:05,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, to become Marciento's Maybe, Yeah, I don't know. Maybe 930 00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 3: that was the galaxy brain or fly effect. Yeah. But 931 00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:10,640 Speaker 3: similar to Harrison Bailey last year, I doubt Jose sierrigets 932 00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:13,040 Speaker 3: more than four hundred this play appearances because play appearances 933 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,400 Speaker 3: aren't that good. His his careent base percentage what like 934 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:17,480 Speaker 3: to sixty him just guessing on that two seventy five 935 00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:18,399 Speaker 3: the best. 936 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:21,800 Speaker 1: So the best season he's ever had statistically hitting wise 937 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:25,560 Speaker 1: was twenty twenty three. He had twenty five homers, fifty RBIs, 938 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:28,279 Speaker 1: stole some basses seven to sixty one oh ps. Twenty 939 00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:30,719 Speaker 1: five home runs and fifty RBIs is nasty work, is 940 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:33,560 Speaker 1: crazy work for Rose Siri, who, by the way, will 941 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 1: be hitting ninth, there's I know where he's hitting. He's 942 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 1: hitting ninth. He will be the last hitter every single 943 00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:40,960 Speaker 1: game that he's ever playing. He had three hundred and 944 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:43,480 Speaker 1: sixty four played appearances this that year. This season, the 945 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 1: numbers went down. He was twenty five percent worse than 946 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:47,960 Speaker 1: league average at the plate. He had four hundred and 947 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:48,920 Speaker 1: fifty played appearances. 948 00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:51,759 Speaker 2: So it's like, hmm, I wonder where Jose Siri fits in. 949 00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 1: And it worked with how the Mets outfield looks because 950 00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 1: like Tyrone Taylor is still going to get look, he's 951 00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 1: stilling to get at bats. He was a great player 952 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:00,600 Speaker 1: for the Mets team last year. That them in center 953 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:03,279 Speaker 1: field is a really nice like who's hot, who's cold? 954 00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 1: Play guy, play the hot hand kind of thing like 955 00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:06,680 Speaker 1: we saw at the end of the year totally and 956 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:08,479 Speaker 1: a lot of people were I'm not gonna say upset, 957 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:09,920 Speaker 1: but just be like, oh, I don't think we needed him. 958 00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:12,800 Speaker 1: We have Tyrone Taylor. Tyrone Taylor is a fine defensive 959 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:17,120 Speaker 1: center fielder. Jose Siri is a disgusting defensive setonfielder, going 960 00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:20,359 Speaker 1: to make plays where you're like, I like we watch 961 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:22,319 Speaker 1: Harrison Bader plays the centerfield. This year, We're like wow, 962 00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:26,399 Speaker 1: like smooth, beautiful. He makes plays look easy. Jose Siri 963 00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:28,719 Speaker 1: makes plays where you're like, how the fuck did he 964 00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:30,880 Speaker 1: do that? Like Harrison Bider didn't do that, How the 965 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:33,320 Speaker 1: fuck did you do that? He did the few, He 966 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:35,319 Speaker 1: did a few, but he did mostly like oh wow, 967 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 1: everything looks easy for him out there. 968 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:38,000 Speaker 2: He made it look routine. 969 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:40,040 Speaker 3: Jose Siri is gonna catch a ball in the gap, 970 00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:42,120 Speaker 3: like diving full extension out to the warning track where 971 00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 3: he wasn't even in the camera frame two seconds before it, like, 972 00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:47,440 Speaker 3: and you're gonna see him Superman layout like go go nuclear. 973 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 1: He's gonna rob a home run over in left field 974 00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:51,799 Speaker 1: where the city party that used to be, and he's 975 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:53,759 Speaker 1: gonna eat the guy's popcorn while he's doing it, like 976 00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:55,279 Speaker 1: he's gonna do crazy shit. 977 00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:57,439 Speaker 3: All Mets fans go on Twitter and just just search 978 00:36:57,520 --> 00:36:59,439 Speaker 3: Jose Sirie because a lot of different people on mess Twitter, 979 00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:02,040 Speaker 3: me and Mark included, we're just finding clips of Jose 980 00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 3: Siri and just posting them in our tweets. There's like 981 00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:07,480 Speaker 3: fifteen defensive highlights from Jose Sirie last year where it's 982 00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 3: just like I can't believe he caught that yeah, robed 983 00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:11,960 Speaker 3: him running gunder Henderson, he made called the ball in 984 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 3: the gap of Laguerrero.

He makes himself, he makes himself known. He 990 00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:30,279 Speaker 3: had some issues with discipline with the Rays a couple 991 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 3: of times. He got benched a few times, probably half 992 00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:33,680 Speaker 3: because of how bad he was hitting it, half because 993 00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:36,600 Speaker 3: he just acts like a jerk sometimes. He also interesting enough. 994 00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:39,000 Speaker 3: Lopio brought this up. He kind of caught the ire 995 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,879 Speaker 3: of Juan Solo one time in a in a game 996 00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:44,239 Speaker 3: in the Bronx this summer where Jose Siri hill a 997 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:46,960 Speaker 3: home run. The Rays weren't very good this year. Took 998 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:49,680 Speaker 3: took his sweet time around the bases, and then the 999 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:53,799 Speaker 3: next day Wan Solo hit one and took three three 1000 00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:55,320 Speaker 3: minutes to walk around the bases, and as he was 1001 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:57,520 Speaker 3: running second base, he looked and pointed at Jose Siri 1002 00:37:57,640 --> 00:38:00,320 Speaker 3: directly in standing in center field. I I don't know 1003 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 3: if I don't know if that's like a real grudge there, 1004 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:05,920 Speaker 3: if any if there's any bad feelings, But he's he 1005 00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:07,759 Speaker 3: is the kind of guy who will get under the 1006 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:10,360 Speaker 3: other team's skin, possibly Iris skin to his fans sometimes, 1007 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:12,720 Speaker 3: but it's it's lots of high highs and lo lows. 1008 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:15,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think you know again. Mike from 1009 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,239 Speaker 2: Satton Island's gonna hate Jose series. He is going this 1010 00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:19,919 Speaker 2: is gonna be his least favorite player ever. He's gonna 1011 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:21,760 Speaker 2: be like what happened to that good Harrison Bader boy. 1012 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:25,720 Speaker 3: Joe from Massapequa is gonna be pissed a main May eleventh, 1013 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:29,440 Speaker 3: Jose Siri is gonna is gonna strike out with second 1014 00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 3: and third, nobody out on three pitches out of strikes. 1015 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:31,960 Speaker 3: I'm not gonna believe it. 1016 00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:33,840 Speaker 1: Later that day, he's gonna hit a home run in 1017 00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:35,640 Speaker 1: the eighth inning and he's gonna go around the base. 1018 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:37,320 Speaker 1: He's gonna take his shirt off on the bases and 1019 00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:39,560 Speaker 1: he's gonna screen fuck you at the pitcher end. He's 1020 00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:42,080 Speaker 1: gonna bat flip, and if he bat flips, that means 1021 00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:44,600 Speaker 1: he thinks the pitcher is racist. Yeah, Jose Siria had 1022 00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:47,400 Speaker 1: a quote from twenty twenty where he said he purposefully 1023 00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:49,680 Speaker 1: bat flips on pitchers if he knows they are racist. 1024 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:51,759 Speaker 3: No, not if he knows if he thinks, oh, if 1025 00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:53,840 Speaker 3: he thinks if they're racist. 1026 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 1: If he thinks they're racist, so bat flip on him. 1027 00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:59,480 Speaker 1: Which that's I mean, he's a completely different player than 1028 00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:00,000 Speaker 1: the Mets have had. 1029 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:00,680 Speaker 2: In a long time. 1030 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:04,400 Speaker 3: Bottom line with Jose Siri, you're getting a lot of 1031 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:06,640 Speaker 3: similarities to Harrison Bay there, and you're paying him eight 1032 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:08,319 Speaker 3: million fewer dollars eight million dollars. 1033 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:09,960 Speaker 1: And now you could that that we just got, that 1034 00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 1: could just be Ryan Stannick. You know, you know what, 1035 00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:14,080 Speaker 1: that could be too, eight million dollars to on Soto 1036 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:16,520 Speaker 1: here take it. Six sixty wasn't enough, how about six 1037 00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 1: sixty eight. 1038 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:19,000 Speaker 3: I'm just saying that could literally be a new, a 1039 00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:22,239 Speaker 3: new relief pitcher right there. That would be that could 1040 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:23,840 Speaker 3: be Ryan Stander Clayholmes, literally. 1041 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:26,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, which would be That'd be great, That'd be great. 1042 00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:27,360 Speaker 2: David Searn's masterclass. 1043 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 3: Yet again, always on top of this, David Serans. The 1044 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:37,120 Speaker 3: last thing we want to talk about briefly, Carlton Doza 1045 00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:39,880 Speaker 3: came a third manager of the year, it's it's a 1046 00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:41,680 Speaker 3: crock of shit. Best manager in baseball? 1047 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:44,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, listen, I'm gonna say this, And I 1048 00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:46,440 Speaker 1: told you this before the podcast started. So on my 1049 00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:49,680 Speaker 1: my season predictions on my YouTube channel, I had the 1050 00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:51,759 Speaker 1: Brewers finishing in fifth place, and boy, could I have 1051 00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:54,120 Speaker 1: not been literally more wrong? That was one of the 1052 00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:57,080 Speaker 1: worst predictions I've ever had in my life. But if 1053 00:39:57,239 --> 00:39:59,360 Speaker 1: I was, if that was such a bad prediction for me, 1054 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:01,000 Speaker 1: like I was go all year long about like you 1055 00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:01,879 Speaker 1: think the Brewers stink? 1056 00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:02,279 Speaker 2: Do you think this? 1057 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:04,560 Speaker 1: Then why is Pat Murphy the manager of the year 1058 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:07,319 Speaker 1: if they if they were, If I was so wrong 1059 00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:09,040 Speaker 1: in saying that I thought the Brewers are gonna stink? 1060 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:12,040 Speaker 2: Why was he the manager of the year then? Because 1061 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:13,920 Speaker 2: they did what they were supposed to do? 1062 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:15,800 Speaker 3: Why is the manager of the year being great on 1063 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:17,280 Speaker 3: draftneck marks? Prediction? 1064 00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:17,520 Speaker 2: No? 1065 00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:19,640 Speaker 3: But why is that this game? This game? 1066 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,080 Speaker 2: Manager of the Year is a narrative award. It's it's 1067 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:25,320 Speaker 2: one narrative award. What was the narrative for the Brewers? 1068 00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:26,920 Speaker 1: If they were supposed to be that good and I 1069 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 1: missed them, then why does he win Manager of the 1070 00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:31,600 Speaker 1: Year over Carls Mendoza who the Mets were not supposed 1071 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:32,319 Speaker 1: to be a playoff team. 1072 00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:34,959 Speaker 3: They won the division. The Mets won the division, Mendoz 1073 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:35,759 Speaker 3: would be manager of the Year. 1074 00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:37,120 Speaker 2: So this is just this is just who wins the 1075 00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:38,800 Speaker 2: most games from the poorest team? Is that what this 1076 00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:39,480 Speaker 2: award is? Now? 1077 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 3: Exactly what this is who has the best season, usually 1078 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,920 Speaker 3: from a landlocked team. Okay, this is the last two. 1079 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:46,560 Speaker 3: I know winners were not landlocked, but because the same 1080 00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:50,399 Speaker 3: thing in the Alte Award, Yeah, where Steven Vote wins 1081 00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:52,759 Speaker 3: over a J Hinch. A J Hinch dragged the Tiger 1082 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:55,600 Speaker 3: team the playoffs with one starting pitcher. Yeah, Stephen Voorro 1083 00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:58,319 Speaker 3: he was I think he came in there, like Steven Vote, 1084 00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:00,919 Speaker 3: just did what the Guardians usually do every couple of years. Yeah, 1085 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:03,320 Speaker 3: which again I'm not saying anythinghere from seven Vote. 1086 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:04,760 Speaker 2: Or Pat Murphy. No, they did great jobs. 1087 00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:07,360 Speaker 3: And also it seems like both of these awards wrapped 1088 00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:10,080 Speaker 3: up in July. Yeah, I think that's what everyone stopp 1089 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:11,759 Speaker 3: think about. Who're gonna vote for Manager of the Year 1090 00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:15,040 Speaker 3: because yeah, totally, but I don't know Pat. Pat Murphy 1091 00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:16,719 Speaker 3: also did have all of the off season stuff, where 1092 00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:18,640 Speaker 3: like Craig Counsel got a bag from the Cubs to 1093 00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:20,960 Speaker 3: just be a manager, and then the Mets stole David 1094 00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:23,480 Speaker 3: Stearns and even Christian Yelich got hurt he missed half 1095 00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:23,920 Speaker 3: the season. 1096 00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:25,960 Speaker 2: Quick question, who won the division in twenty twenty three 1097 00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:28,200 Speaker 2: for the skinal Central. 1098 00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:29,560 Speaker 3: Oh wasn't the Brewers? 1099 00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:31,759 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, just checking your Yeah, so they won division again? 1100 00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:33,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, back to back fam again. But they also they 1101 00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:35,040 Speaker 3: lost corn Burns, they didn't have Brandon Wood or if 1102 00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:36,839 Speaker 3: they lost Christian eeli trafter year, they lost the manager, 1103 00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:38,680 Speaker 3: they lost a GM like that all did happen and 1104 00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:41,040 Speaker 3: they still won the division. Credits Pat Papers is a 1105 00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 3: good manager. I mean, hey, we own them. 1106 00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:42,560 Speaker 2: Be fair. 1107 00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:45,000 Speaker 1: I really have more of a beef that Mendoza finished 1108 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:46,920 Speaker 1: third behind Mike Shilke. Get the fuck out of here. 1109 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:48,040 Speaker 1: Mike shul gets ahead of him. 1110 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:50,160 Speaker 3: That's insane, But that that's the award of who had 1111 00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:52,279 Speaker 3: the better record. There were four games in the Mets. 1112 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:52,919 Speaker 3: That's the whole things. 1113 00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:55,480 Speaker 2: That's absolutely insane. Even though the Mets we won the 1114 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:56,600 Speaker 2: season series against. 1115 00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:59,040 Speaker 3: Them, we did against and we knocked the Brewers out 1116 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 3: of the playoffs. Yeah, so you know what really wins. Yeah, 1117 00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:04,839 Speaker 3: Dave Roberts should have won it. I don't think Pat 1118 00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:07,320 Speaker 3: Murphy or Mike Schilter in meetings with Wan Soo. 1119 00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:10,920 Speaker 2: No, they're not. Definitely not meetings with Well, Mike schild 1120 00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:12,360 Speaker 2: might have almost was. 1121 00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:14,839 Speaker 3: Maybe probably he might have talked to him a few times. 1122 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:16,279 Speaker 2: It might have been the reason why he was kicked. 1123 00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:20,440 Speaker 3: Nevertheless, crack shit Carlson Doo is the best manager in baseball. 1124 00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:21,120 Speaker 2: Goddamn right. 1125 00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:23,280 Speaker 1: Thank you guys so much for listening to this episode. 1126 00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:26,880 Speaker 1: Watching this episode over on YouTube.
