1 00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:04,120 Speaker 1: All right, the Tip defeated Sunday, July sixth, and the 2 00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:07,600 Speaker 1: Yankees were trying to snap a six game losing streak, 3 00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:10,520 Speaker 1: and they were looking to their stopper, Max Freed, to 4 00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:13,880 Speaker 1: put the brakes on the skid and get the Yankees 5 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:17,120 Speaker 1: back into the win column. My recap and your reactions 6 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:21,560 Speaker 1: coming up next. This is pinstrike territory. Wanted to talk. 7 00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:31,400 Speaker 1: All right, Finally, finally it happened. The Yankees scored more 8 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:36,400 Speaker 1: runs than their opponents. Oh, it's a miracle, as Mel 9 00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:39,600 Speaker 1: Allen would say, how about that we had a home 10 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:43,800 Speaker 1: run by Judge. We scored on some productive outs today. Gutsy, 11 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:48,800 Speaker 1: gutsy performance by Max Freed, especially in the fifth inning 12 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:51,319 Speaker 1: in a really tough situation going to the curve ball. 13 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 1: He got Soto in a bigot bat. He got a 14 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,120 Speaker 1: Lonzo in a biggot bat that felt like a turning 15 00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 1: point in the game, or a potential turning point the 16 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 1: other way. And then Bellinger, my goodness, my goodness, one 17 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:11,960 Speaker 1: of the best double plays I've ever seen, shoe string 18 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 1: catch and fired a laser beam to first base. Wow. 19 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 1: So we needed that, we needed that, you know, let's go, 20 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:22,320 Speaker 1: let's get it. 21 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:23,559 Speaker 2: Going. 22 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: I used to spend a lot of time in Vegas 23 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,399 Speaker 1: for like trade shows and stuff, and I worked for 24 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 1: a poker company for a while, and so I played 25 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 1: a lot of blackjack. Okay, I played a lot of 26 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,039 Speaker 1: black guys, too much blackjack. And if you've ever been 27 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 1: at the blackjack table, you know that it can be 28 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 1: very streaky. Right when you're winning, your thinking this is easy. 29 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,800 Speaker 1: I got the system beat, I cracked it. And then 30 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: when you start losing, man, it gets dark fast. And 31 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 1: losing streaks are brutal, and they're more brutal than winning streaks. 32 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 1: I mean, they're more brutal than winning streaks are good, right, 33 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: I mean you know it's money going out of your 34 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 1: wallet every time. Right, That's why don't mess with cards anymore. 35 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 1: But you know, every once in a while, after you 36 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 1: won ten hands or lost ten hands in a row, 37 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,360 Speaker 1: you'll win one and you'll think, I'm back, baby, I'm back. 38 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 1: And that's an easy fallacy to get into, because let's 39 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: be real, you're still down big, okay, and one winning 40 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:21,119 Speaker 1: hand doesn't fix ten losses. That's exactly how this win 41 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:25,839 Speaker 1: feels to me. Okay, we've got some chips to win back, 42 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: but every journey of a thousand miles begins with a 43 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 1: single step. So good win for the Yankees today. Not 44 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 1: gonna wait for this, and now they get to rest 45 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:57,519 Speaker 1: at home on off day after a win, and it's 46 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: gonna be a much needed relief of the press your valve. Okay, 47 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: both teams were quiet early. Honestly, that was a relief 48 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: because the Yanks had been falling behind big and early. 49 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,839 Speaker 1: They got the lead on a second deck home run 50 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 1: by Austin Wells, thirteenth home run of the year for him, 51 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 1: and a really good piece of hitting. It was a 52 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 1: ninety seven mile an hour sinker down and in, and 53 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,919 Speaker 1: you could tell that he just adjusted his batpath nicely. 54 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 1: He just kind of tucked that back arm in and 55 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: kind of dropped the bat head on it, very much 56 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 1: like the guy in the both Paul O'Neil used to 57 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 1: do when the pitge was down and in. Go watch 58 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 1: the ninety five highlights of the Division Series some of 59 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 1: the home runs he hit down and in and same style, 60 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 1: just drop the batthead and it's beautiful when a lefty 61 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 1: hitter does that. Volpi got a run in on a 62 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 1: productive out. Wells drove in another run with a productive out. 63 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: Paul O'Neil with an observation that is obvious to viewers 64 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: and obvious to us. But sometimes I think the players 65 00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: maybe overlook, which is that you don't always need the 66 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 1: three run home run. Getting productive outs, getting soft contact 67 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: with guys on third base sometimes is all you need. 68 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: You know. We wonder about, like, why don't the Yankees 69 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 1: hit well with runners in scoring position? Okay, And it 70 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: could be that they're so focused on exit velocity, and 71 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: they do have some of the highest exit velocity in 72 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: the league, that you know, maybe you're making harder outs 73 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 1: with guys in scoring position and then also striking out 74 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 1: more because you're swinging to generate that harder velocity. Sometimes 75 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 1: just shortening it up and just putting the ball in play. 76 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: We'll get your runs. Okay. Goldie ripped a double in 77 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 1: the fifth inning. They pointed out how he has simplified 78 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 1: his swing over the last few days. That's a veteran 79 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 1: getting back to, you know, try and work his way 80 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 1: out of slump. And then Aaron Judge with a big 81 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 1: two run home run, number thirty three on the year, 82 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 1: and that past a Rod on the Yankees all time list. 83 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 1: Glad to see that he can still hit after Anthony 84 00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 1: Volpi hit him up side the head with the baseball. Yesterday, 85 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:04,119 Speaker 1: Mets got a couple of runs back, huge situation. Max 86 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:08,600 Speaker 1: Freed versus Juan Soto as the tying run or maybe 87 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:10,360 Speaker 1: as the go ahead run, and he struck him out. 88 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 1: He just kept going curveball, curveball, curveball, and then he 89 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 1: got Alonzo to fly out to right field, so that 90 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 1: was a big, big situation. Mets did get a couple 91 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 1: of runs back. In the sixth inning. Lowisa came in 92 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: the game. Actually Freed stayed in the game, which is interesting. 93 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: We'll talk about that, and he hit a batter and 94 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,480 Speaker 1: then Elwisa came in the game gave up three hits. 95 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: Lowisea Ga has been shaky, and I mean he's just 96 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 1: part of this bullpen that just looks worn out, which 97 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,920 Speaker 1: is odd because he didn't come back to pitch until, 98 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: you know, not too long ago he was injured. So 99 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: he needs to get it together. Hopefully he'll round in 100 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: a form in the second half. Outstanding catch by judge 101 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 1: to preserve the lead in right field. That's why his 102 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 1: war is over seven. It's not just home runs, it's 103 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 1: great defense. Especially as a right fielder. I think he's 104 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: much better suited for right field than centerfield. And then 105 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:01,600 Speaker 1: seven thinning, in my opinion, was one of the best 106 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:06,599 Speaker 1: plays I've ever seen Cody Bellinger with the shoe string catch. 107 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,720 Speaker 1: And then not only is he rob Wan Soto of 108 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 1: a hit, he throws to quote the announcer, I think 109 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: it's Dave at Neuhaus from the Mariners. He when he 110 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: chro made a great throw. He threw something out of 111 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 1: Star Wars right, a laser beam from left field, head 112 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 1: high to first base to Goldschmidt to get him. I mean, 113 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 1: that was the absolute play of the game. And it's 114 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: just sucked the air out of the stadium. You could 115 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 1: feel it. And for that reason, he is the Belt 116 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:54,039 Speaker 1: winner today. All Right, bald Man says, glad to see 117 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: the hat back. You kept me believing during these rough times, 118 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 1: and thank you for that. I wouldn't believe too much. 119 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 1: I hope I didn't instill false hope in anybody out there. 120 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: Richard c says he wants Cody around for a while, 121 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 1: and look, he has really turned his year around after 122 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: a tough start. They talked about that on the broadcast. Now, 123 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 1: hitting two seventy two on the year with thirteen home 124 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: runs and forty seven ribbis on the season, so you know, 125 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: really kind of rebounded. I mean, I wouldn't surprise me 126 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:29,239 Speaker 1: if he ends up with an ops over eight hundred. 127 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 1: It's creeping up towards eight hundred right now. He gets 128 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: a lot of doubles. I've noticed that, you know. And 129 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: he plays hard, he hustles, never takes a playoff. He's 130 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: very heads up. I noticed he plays like ricochets off 131 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 1: the wall really really well. He hits the cutoff man 132 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: when he has to, and today was obviously one of 133 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: the situations where you don't need to hit the cutoff man. 134 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 1: He just put everything he had into that throw and 135 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 1: it ended up being the play of the game. And 136 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 1: I actually had Aaron Judge in there as the belt 137 00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 1: winner at that point. I had, you know, already put 138 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 1: him up on this and I was working on the 139 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 1: show and then he made the play, and then Terrence 140 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 1: messaged me he was at the game today. Terrence was 141 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: sitting behind the Mets dugout and he said, you got 142 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,679 Speaker 1: to give it to Belly, and so I went with Belly. 143 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 1: So shout out to TK. We'll talk a little bit 144 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 1: about Max Freed, who was thrown hard today. He got 145 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 1: the heater up to ninety eight point one miles an hour, 146 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 1: so tick up from his last start. Look, he has 147 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: done really, really well after Yankees' losses. So he's the 148 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 1: guy you want to run out there after a losing 149 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 1: streak or to end a losing streak. I think Boone 150 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,319 Speaker 1: tried to go to the well for maybe one inning 151 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 1: too much. I thought the fifth inning he really used 152 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 1: up a lot of stressful pitches. Even O'Neil was questioning it. 153 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 1: And it's so funny. You know, we talk about second guessing. 154 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 1: O'Neil is somebody that I think first guesses in real time. 155 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: Right he says, I don't know about this decision right 156 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,080 Speaker 1: before something goes wrong. He is so tuned into the 157 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: game and so smart. We have got to find a 158 00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:00,040 Speaker 1: way to get O'Neill in the dugout. I don't I 159 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 1: don't know if he wants to do it. I think 160 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,320 Speaker 1: he likes being at home a lot. I think he 161 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 1: likes playing golf. But if he was ever willing to 162 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 1: be a manager man, I think he would do a 163 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:11,959 Speaker 1: phenomenal job. But five inning, six hits, three runs, one walk, 164 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 1: five strikeouts for mister Freed today, not technically a quality start, 165 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 1: but you know, picks up a w. So he is 166 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 1: eleven and two now on the year with a two 167 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 1: point two seven e er. Can't ask for much more 168 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 1: after signing with the Yankees for his first half. A 169 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: lot of guys have that tough adjustment period. But he's 170 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 1: done great, so nice job. All right, let's take some boysmails, 171 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: and first I just want to give my overall thoughts 172 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,400 Speaker 1: on the Yankees now that they have you know, ended 173 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:50,559 Speaker 1: this losing streak. Look, I know it's gonna sound a 174 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 1: little negative because we just won, and typically, you know, 175 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 1: I don't criticize the team too much after losses or 176 00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 1: after wins. I try and stay positive. But I just 177 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,680 Speaker 1: wanted to point out that this win doesn't really change much. 178 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 1: They're still playing poorly and they've got a lot of 179 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 1: work to do as an organization to get better, not 180 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 1: just for this season, but going forward. I was thinking 181 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:18,840 Speaker 1: about AI okay and the company Meta used to be 182 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: called Facebook has begun poaching a lot of the top 183 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:27,560 Speaker 1: AI talent engineers AI experts people from Open AI, poaching 184 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 1: them paying them these incredibly massive salaries because they want 185 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: to win the AI race. They take it very seriously. 186 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 1: The Yankees payroll is obviously quite large. It's not the biggest, 187 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,960 Speaker 1: but it's quite large. But they have enormous resources to 188 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,840 Speaker 1: hire talent within the organization that doesn't go towards the 189 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 1: payroll like the major league payroll. Right, it doesn't count. 190 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 1: They could hire the top executives, the top baseball people 191 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 1: from planet Earth if they wanted to. Right, and they've 192 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 1: done this before. They've gone out and got some great guys. 193 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 1: They lured Matt blake Away and gave him a bucket 194 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 1: of money and said, hey, come teach our guys how 195 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 1: to pitch. Come run our pitching lab. But I'm not 196 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 1: necessarily talking about the MIT scientists or people to redesign 197 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: the baseball bat. I want baseball minds. I want the 198 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 1: best baseball minds on planet Earth. I want people that 199 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 1: are studying how to score runs, not how to create 200 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 1: launch angle. I want people that aren't number crunchers, that 201 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 1: are looking at baseball trends, that are looking at how 202 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: can we be better on the field fundamentally? Okay, how 203 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 1: can we turn these athletes that have always been the 204 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,439 Speaker 1: best player on their team and haven't had to necessarily 205 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:49,839 Speaker 1: rely on fundamentals or rely on you know, bunting. How 206 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:53,439 Speaker 1: can we teach these guys how to play winning baseball? 207 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 1: I want those guys. I want those guys not only 208 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 1: teaching our major leaguers. I want them teaching our minor leaguers. 209 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 1: I want them reaching out and finding the prospects from 210 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 1: other countries, the international folks. Right, don't just go by 211 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 1: exit velocity or sprint speed find baseball players, right, find 212 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 1: guys with great instincts or with unique pitches, Guys like 213 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: Rivera who had that cutter or you know Emmanuel class 214 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 1: like the heat and the cutter. Find the talent and 215 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 1: develop it properly. I feel like there's an institutional memory 216 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 1: in this organization right now, where a feeling like they 217 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 1: can do no wrong, where they're always right, Like every 218 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: assumption that they make is the correct one, and that's 219 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 1: just false. I reject that every organization needs to keep 220 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 1: up with the best in their field, and right now, 221 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: the Yankees are not the best. The Dodgers are clearly 222 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,839 Speaker 1: the best all across the board. The way they spend 223 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 1: the way they generate money, And to go back to 224 00:12:56,640 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 1: my artificial intelligence analogy. Apple is one of the biggest 225 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 1: companies in the world, and when they released Apple Intelligence, 226 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:07,080 Speaker 1: their answer to AI, most people were in agreement that 227 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 1: not only was it not very good, but a lot 228 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 1: of the features were kind of annoying. It started reorganizing 229 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:14,079 Speaker 1: our photos without us asking. It started reorganizing our mail 230 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 1: and summarizing stuff and texts and all that stuff. And 231 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:18,719 Speaker 1: I really use a lot of Apple products, and I 232 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 1: basically never use the Apple Intelligence features, and I despise 233 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 1: a lot of them. Right, The Yankees saw that smaller 234 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: organizations like the Rays were having success with analytics, and 235 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 1: so they dumped all of their money into trying to 236 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,200 Speaker 1: copy the Raise, but they did it badly. Okay, you 237 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 1: have enormous resources financially, do a lot of things. Okay, 238 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 1: go get the best people in a bunch of different areas. Okay, 239 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 1: you could have a five hundred million dollar payroll if 240 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 1: you wanted to. Right, you could release guys like DJ 241 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,959 Speaker 1: Lemayhew and just eat the contracts when they're not playing well. 242 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 1: Those are the ways you can flex your month's muscle financially, 243 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 1: but you can also do it off the field. You 244 00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: can also do it by bringing in great baseball minds, 245 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 1: and that's something that the Yankees need to do. Invest 246 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 1: more in amateur scouting, invest more in major league scouting, 247 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 1: in different types of scouts. Okay, get more consensuses or 248 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 1: consensus on players. I've said this before. There is no 249 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 1: reason that Volpi should have been drafted ahead of Gunner Henderson, none, 250 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 1: but a lot of teams missed that, just like a 251 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: lot of teams missed on Aaron Judge, who was drafted 252 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 1: well after a lot of other players. It's not always easy. 253 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 1: But you know what, winning isn't easy. Baseball isn't easy. 254 00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 1: Nothing worth doing is easy. What was it? John Kennedy said? 255 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 1: We do things not because they're easy, but because they 256 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: are hard. So this is likely not something the Yankees 257 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 1: can fix this year. It's not something you can fix 258 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 1: in three months. But spend every moment, in every dime 259 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 1: that you have right now, now that you recognize these problems, 260 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 1: that you're not good fundamentally, that you don't win close games, 261 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 1: that you haven't for years, that you you slump every summer, 262 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 1: that you leave an unbelievable amount of players in scoring position, 263 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 1: use this time to get better. There are eight billion 264 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: people on Earth, you're telling me the best one to 265 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 1: play shortstop for the New York Yankees is Volpi. Out 266 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 1: of all of the humans, you're telling me there aren't 267 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: three or four more guys out there in the bullpen 268 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 1: who have better arms that are available than the guys 269 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 1: we have out there right now. I reject that. I 270 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 1: reject that flatly. They're out there, you just gotta find them, 271 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 1: and you got to develop them properly. But the first 272 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 1: step in any recovery is admitting you have a problem. 273 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 1: And despite the win today, the Yankees still have an 274 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 1: enormous amount of problems. 275 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, hey, Derek Sam from Telaware the first state again, 276 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 3: dominion is not in the line of not only not 277 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 3: bad period. I guess that's what old Aaron boombastic boob boom. 278 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 4: And his knowledge. 279 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 3: I don't get it. I don't get it now. 280 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 1: Okay, so I want to play the reverse to this. Okay. 281 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 1: We got two voicemails that both are like it's why 282 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 1: second guessing sometimes doesn't work out. We had a call 283 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 1: here about Domingas being. 284 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 5: Derek Toms again, and uh freaking Cody Bellinger just made 285 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:28,240 Speaker 5: an awesome play to catch the ball at his shoelaces. 286 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 5: Then he threw out Francisco Lindoor. At first, I just 287 00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 5: want to say, Dimingez won't make that play. It's gonna 288 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:36,720 Speaker 5: trap right in front of him, and then it's gonna 289 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 5: be runners on first and second with no one out. 290 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 5: Domingas arguably maybe a better bat, but I think Cody 291 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 5: Bellinger is still a better bet than Dimingas. 292 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 1: So it really comes down to Trent Grisham being in 293 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 1: the lineup today. Does Trent Grisham deserve to be in 294 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,000 Speaker 1: the lineup? And today was one of those days where 295 00:16:55,040 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: obviously the right button was pushed. Grisham three for five 296 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: today and Bellinger two for three and made a game 297 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 1: saving catch and Judge one for four with three RBIs 298 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 1: who is the DH today? Stanton one for five. He 299 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:11,480 Speaker 1: hit a ball one hundred and eighteen miles an hour. 300 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 1: But I mean, if if you're looking at the results, 301 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:19,679 Speaker 1: it worked out. I look, I am as big a 302 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 1: Domingus fan as anybody. I want him in there every 303 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,439 Speaker 1: day and I'm livid every time he's not. But today, 304 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,359 Speaker 1: you know it worked out. But two days off in 305 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 1: a row. I don't like resetting a bat when they're hot, 306 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 1: especially a young bat with two days off cause he's 307 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:35,560 Speaker 1: sitting today and they're off tomorrow. By the way, Tomorrow 308 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:40,239 Speaker 1: night gonna have the Bronx Buds on eight o'clock, so 309 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 1: we're going to talk about the new season. And those 310 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 1: guys have another podcast which just released called Established in 311 00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 1: the Nineties that I want. I work on that podcast 312 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 1: with them, and I wanted to promote it. So we're 313 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:52,640 Speaker 1: gonna talk about all that stuff tomorrow. It'll be fun. 314 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,920 Speaker 1: But two days off now for Domingoes and then the 315 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,399 Speaker 1: Yankees play Seattle. We're gonna see Cam Schlitzler on I 316 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 1: believe Tuesday or Wednesday. That's gonna be fun. I'm looking 317 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 1: forward to that. You know what it might do. We 318 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:05,040 Speaker 1: might do a little bit of a watch party for 319 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 1: Cam Schlittler's appearance, like while he's in the game, just 320 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 1: real time impressions. Let me know in the chat if 321 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:14,680 Speaker 1: that's something you're interested in. And then we finish off 322 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 1: with Chicago over the weekend, the Cubs on Friday, Saturday, 323 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,159 Speaker 1: and then Sunday, and then there's the All Star break. 324 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do a Monday night. I have a recorded 325 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 1: podcast dropping where I'm just doing grades for the first 326 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,440 Speaker 1: half of the year, and then I'm gonna take a 327 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 1: couple of days off. I'm gonna go see Superman. And 328 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 1: then the Yankees open up the second half against the Braves, 329 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 1: who you know, maybe they sell if the Yankees are 330 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:42,919 Speaker 1: able to do well against them in that series. So 331 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 1: I got another call here from Willie. 332 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:50,640 Speaker 6: You mean to tell me if Free couldn't go out 333 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 6: there and have. 334 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:55,159 Speaker 4: A one two, three inning, maybe. 335 00:18:54,960 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 6: Those one hundred eleven pictures, so what and they bring 336 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 6: in the wives. This is what I'm going all. 337 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 1: Right, appreciate it, Willy. I think more than the pitch count, 338 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 1: it's the stressful pitches. I mean, it was easy to 339 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 1: see that he had to use everything in the tank 340 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 1: to get through the fifth with those runners on, and 341 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:19,239 Speaker 1: then against Soto and Alonzo, and he got through it. 342 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:22,240 Speaker 1: And then when he came out to face Nimo in 343 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: the sixth inning, he threw a curveball and the curveball 344 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 1: hung up, which is a sign that your arm speed 345 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 1: is dropping. And so it was obvious to me. I said, 346 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,120 Speaker 1: once he hung that breaking ball and hit the guy, 347 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:33,920 Speaker 1: I said, get him out of there. And then luckily 348 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:37,440 Speaker 1: you see Boone going to the mound so quick. Uh 349 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 1: ad from Hewle the guys at Foul Territory talking Hewle 350 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:44,160 Speaker 1: and then I'll be back.

He we got to call here about 385 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 1: DJ Sre. 386 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 4: This is Mica from Roxbury, New Jersey. I just need 387 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 4: to know why is detailed me you at Second Beast. 388 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 4: He is real. He is the marine of a turtle. 389 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 4: I could play a bit of Second Beasts him. I'm 390 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 4: sixty two years old, over weak. Please please give me 391 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 4: when you're still a second best. Thank you? 392 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, he he doesn't really move like he used to. 393 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,639 Speaker 1: That's for sure. The foot injuries have taken their toll, 394 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:56,679 Speaker 1: and he's not really hitting too much. I think the 395 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 1: Yankees are definitely in the hunt for an infielder. I 396 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 1: would I would prefer third baseman. You move Jazz back 397 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 1: to second base. Jazz has the range for second base, 398 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,879 Speaker 1: He's not gonna overthrow guys at second base as often 399 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 1: unless it's on like a back end of a double play. 400 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:14,400 Speaker 1: But I would prefer that they went out and got 401 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:18,120 Speaker 1: a good third baseman. I'm not sure who's who's perfect. 402 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,879 Speaker 1: I mean, Eugenio Suarez has the offense, he's got the 403 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 1: power twenty five plus home runs, but he can't play 404 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 1: defense right. And then you got guys like, hey, Brian Hayes. 405 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 1: I'll keep Brian Hayes, who can pick it but can't hit. 406 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 1: So there's no perfect solution out there. You'd have to 407 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 1: really probably pay to get like a good third basement 408 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 1: on both sides of the ball, and I'm not sure 409 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:42,920 Speaker 1: that there's anybody out there that's available, even if the 410 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 1: Yankees were willing to pay to do that. So, ladies 411 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 1: and gentlemen, thanks so much for watching again.
