1
00:00:04,519 --> 00:00:07,200
Speaker 1: Breaking news coming in hot to ft.

2
00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:12,080
Speaker 2: The Boston Red Sox have pivoted fast Ranger Suarez five years,

3
00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:15,160
Speaker 2: one hundred and thirty million dollars, no deferrals, no opt outs,

4
00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:17,320
Speaker 2: and a stronger starting rotation.

5
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:18,440
Speaker 1: What do we think?

6
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:20,759
Speaker 3: I love this moves up, dog, that's what he just

7
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:24,880
Speaker 3: Ranger the Red Sox except Dog, I love this movie.

8
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 3: You give me pivoting from Bregman two Ranger swars. Now

9
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:32,640
Speaker 3: they have Sonny Gray, Garrett Crochet, Ranger Suarez, Brian Bayo,

10
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 3: and then whoever they picked the finish finish out that rotation.

11
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,199
Speaker 1: Forget Kratz, tell him who he's forgetting.

12
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:45,199
Speaker 3: Come on, Piano, Joiedohan, don't mess with the Johan.

13
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:48,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, Krats his favorite in all seriousness. If you're just

14
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 2: catching this out of the blue and wondering while we're

15
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:53,240
Speaker 2: going nuts, Krats is very high on the upside of Johanna.

16
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 3: He's listed as a bullpen guy though no on the

17
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 3: Red Sox. Yes he is on their roster. Yes he

18
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 3: is on MLB dot com MLB dot com, but they

19
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:06,039
Speaker 3: have early totally Tanner, Howe Cutter, Crawford, Patrick Sandoval. They

20
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 3: have a long list of starters. Possibility I mean, this

21
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 3: is a solid, solid pitching staff.

22
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,040
Speaker 2: They're five right now heading into camp if everyone's healthy

23
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 2: and they do what they're supposed to do in spring training.

24
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 2: Is Crochet one, Ranger Suarez two, which was what they

25
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 2: were looking forward to. And Red Sox fans were pissed

26
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:24,479
Speaker 2: that they didn't get it too. They felt like Sunny

27
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:25,200
Speaker 2: Gray was a three.

28
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 1: Boom, here you go, here's your three, and these are

29
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:28,960
Speaker 1: all guys that can pitch in a playoff game.

30
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 2: Four is Bao, five is Oviedo. And if you want

31
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:33,960
Speaker 2: to be a team that gets through regular season and

32
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 2: really make sure you make the playoffs, you need like

33
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 2: ten and that's where you just mentioned five others that

34
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:40,479
Speaker 2: can float into the.

35
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:42,679
Speaker 3: Jordan Hicks do and figuring out what he's gonna do.

36
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:46,479
Speaker 1: With him, Yeah, well problem he's.

37
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, wolock in Chatman at the back end is a

38
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 3: pretty good place to start with Weiser And this is

39
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 3: a solid team, though I still think they would like

40
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 3: to get a bat like their right hand up.

41
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 2: Better than like if you had to decide between this

42
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 2: and it's a nice pivot though it's vot I agree.

43
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 3: It's a really nice pivot.

44
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they still probably will acquire a bat. Maybe

45
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 2: it's Henio Suarez to play third and then Marcella Meyer

46
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 2: play second.

47
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,640
Speaker 4: Here's why it's a nice fit, and I'm doing it

48
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 4: as we talk. But what are the Red Sox? All

49
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 4: the Red Sox care about playoffs? Winning a World Series,

50
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:30,639
Speaker 4: Red Sox fans whatever. Ranger Suarez, Obviously, I'm freaking out.

51
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 4: I can't go too fast. He has a one point

52
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 4: four to eight ERA is forty two innings and in

53
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 4: the playoffs only thirteen walks. He's only given up thirty

54
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 4: two hits. He's got almost a one whip in the playoffs. Like,

55
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:50,800
Speaker 4: this is a guy who has shown up. Has he

56
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 4: thrown a lot of innings in the regular season. No,

57
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 4: you just named off eight or nine guys that can

58
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 4: pitch in the big leagues for this team have pitched

59
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 4: in the big leagues. And yes, it's okay that you

60
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 4: had guys that stepped up last year, you know, with

61
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,959
Speaker 4: Peyton and Kylie Early, and you had guys that stepped

62
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,120
Speaker 4: up and were pitching really well. It's okay that they're

63
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,840
Speaker 4: in Triple A when something happens, not if something happens.

64
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:19,520
Speaker 4: When something happens, and you call those guys up. This

65
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:23,640
Speaker 4: is huge. This also makes Red Sox fans say, okay,

66
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 4: we're still pissed at the Red Sox were not coming

67
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 4: off of the one sixty five that Bregman. You know,

68
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 4: they that was the best offer that they gave. But

69
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 4: beginning off season they were talking about we're not looking

70
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 4: for We're not looking for any threes and fours. In

71
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 4: my opinion, I think that's where the sunny Gray Oviedo,

72
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 4: you know, that's that's the route where they live. And

73
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 4: he's a man of his word. They were going after

74
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 4: one of these guys maybe will come out. They were

75
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 4: going after more than just Ranger. But to me, Rangers

76
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 4: are number two and he is a Maybe some people

77
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 4: he's not a number two during the regular season, that's fine.

78
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 4: He is definitely your number two starter in the postseason

79
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 4: to go with garat Crochet.

80
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 3: Now here's the real question that the fans will to

81
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 3: know where does this put them in the division? But

82
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 3: where does this put them? And now there's a team

83
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 3: out there, the Yankees in this division. We already kind

84
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 3: of talked about them getting Ryan Weathers. Okay, the Red

85
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:29,360
Speaker 3: Sox answer with Ranger Suarez, whatever you however you want

86
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,040
Speaker 3: to put it, that are probably a better choice. Okay,

87
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,720
Speaker 3: yes you have. The Orioles improved a lot, a lot.

88
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 4: Okay.

89
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 3: The Blue Jays were six inches away from winning the

90
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 3: World Series last year. Got sees Ponts still in it

91
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 3: for Tucker.

92
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,480
Speaker 1: They've Okamoto o Komodo improved.

93
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 3: People would say, Okay, these teams are improving. The Yankees

94
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 3: haven't done much. Now you know what this does, Cody Bellinger.

95
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 3: Cody Bellinger's going Yankees. You need me now more than ever. Okay,

96
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 3: So where I mean to me? It's Red Sox and

97
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 3: Blue Jays are probably the best two teams in this

98
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 3: division right.

99
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:09,839
Speaker 1: Now, better than the Yankees.

100
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 3: I think so because their pitching is just legit. They

101
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 3: were good last year. Their pitching is legit. Their starters

102
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,159
Speaker 3: are really good now if these guys are all healthy

103
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 3: and right. But where do you put the Yankees? Do

104
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 3: you put the Yankees third? Second, third, fourth in this division?

105
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 3: Because they haven't done much? Again, they haven't done much

106
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 3: this offseason. Wait, how blue the Red Sox lineup?

107
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,799
Speaker 1: Yeah? Tough? What sorry?

108
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 4: How's how's the Red Sox lineup better? Right now?

109
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 1: Well?

110
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 3: I think well, they got Wilson Contraras he's the first

111
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 3: baseman that makes he's better than Bregman. No, no, no, I

112
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 3: say the first I didn't say anything about third shortstops.

113
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 3: Same as Trevor story. Jared Durant will have a better year.

114
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:54,280
Speaker 3: He didn't have very good year last year. I think

115
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 3: wrote full year of Roman Anthony right sit on Rafaela.

116
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,280
Speaker 3: I think we'll take another step mm hm Our Vaias

117
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 3: and Connor Wong are solid behind the plan. Third base

118
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 3: is the whole. Now do you fill with Meyer, do

119
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 3: you fill Rome Gonzalez? What do you do there? Or

120
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,719
Speaker 3: do you go out and get a Geno Suarez for

121
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,599
Speaker 3: a year or two to I think that's how you

122
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 3: finish this all. If you're the Red Sox, you say, ah, Geno,

123
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,279
Speaker 3: here's one year, twenty million. I don't know what the

124
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 3: numbers are, random numbers. I'm just going out there. But

125
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 3: here's a two year deal, forty or whatever you think

126
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 3: will get them done. And then you really finish this

127
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 3: off this offseason, you say, we're pretty good, right now,

128
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 3: bring us some pop Gino? Yeah, right handed. They have

129
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 3: Red Sox need right handed power. And he's the perfect

130
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 3: guy and he fits from what everyone says. He's a

131
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 3: great guy in the clubhouse. Oh yeah, so he fits perfectly?

132
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 3: Or do you trade at Tristan Cassis for somebody you

133
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 3: know him? And I know this isn't on the same

134
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:47,600
Speaker 3: but we're going to go back to the Rangers as

135
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 3: his old team the Phillies. They signed Bobashet. Here's a

136
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 3: name for you to watch for the Phillies if they

137
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 3: don't sign JT. Jonahin Sure. Yeah, I just pitch in

138
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 3: in guy, veteran guy won a World Series, Jeff. He'd

139
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,159
Speaker 3: probably get him a little bit cheaper, but he can

140
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,679
Speaker 3: help you out. You know what I'm saying, Just because

141
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:08,720
Speaker 3: when we were talking to Sean Armstrong he mentioned him

142
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:10,679
Speaker 3: and I was like, I forgot he was non tendered

143
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 3: this offseason. That's a nice that wouldn't be if JT

144
00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 3: doesn't go back to the Phillies. That's a veteran guy.

145
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:16,560
Speaker 3: He can slot in there. They can do a lot

146
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 3: of things for it.

147
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 1: It will cost much less than j T.

148
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:19,239
Speaker 3: Exactly.

149
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 4: I lost his job to Al Higashioka last year. Yes, yeah,

150
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 4: but you've give him a proven contract.

151
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 3: You give him a one year five and whatever and

152
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 3: say you're gonna get a chance to play and throw

153
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 3: a bunch.

154
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 1: Of incentives in there, change of scenery too, go win

155
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 1: Kevin Long. Where are we at with.

156
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 2: The rest of the starting pitching market, So we think

157
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 2: there's a chance Freddy Pearl to gets traded. The Red

158
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 2: Sox were definitely in on Freddie Peralta. That's I don't

159
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 2: want to say a fact, but as close to a

160
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:51,080
Speaker 2: fact as can be. Multiple insiders reporting about that throughout

161
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 2: the off season and hearing about it behind the scenes.

162
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 2: The whole deal right, asking price probably too high. They

163
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 2: were trying to trade for others. They did trade for

164
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 2: Sonny Gray a while back, but now the rotation is intact.

165
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 2: It seems like the Mets are trying to land another starter.

166
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:07,679
Speaker 1: The Orioles, for sure.

167
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 2: There's of course you see this and some people just

168
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 2: immediately go what's next and how does this affect the market,

169
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 2: And people are like, oh, Framber.

170
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 1: Valdez is about to get paid huge for his market.

171
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 2: I mean, he's going to get paid, but I don't

172
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 2: necessarily think that he's going to Now go okay, well,

173
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 2: now I'm getting one fifty one, sixty whatever. Framber's older

174
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 2: than Ranger Suarez. This contract covers aged thirty four. Excuse me,

175
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 2: age thirty to thirty four seasons for Ranger Suarez, who

176
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 2: also entered free agency with a very low innings total

177
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 2: for a starting pitcher seven hundred and sixty two innings.

178
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 2: So you can look at it as, hey, this guy

179
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 2: is a little bit injury prone. Last season was his

180
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 2: top season innings wise in the majors at one fifty

181
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 2: seven and a third. Or you can say, hey, Mileoje

182
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 2: on the arm pretty good, so Framber can't play that game.

183
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 2: He's been super solid and consistent, and that's good. You

184
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,400
Speaker 2: get durability there. But he's also, I believe two years older.

185
00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:59,840
Speaker 2: That doesn't mean that he's going to get more guaranteed dollars.

186
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 2: In are Suarez, I would actually take the under on

187
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:04,559
Speaker 2: his guaranteed dollars.

188
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 4: I think somebody goes four years, one twenty right there,

189
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,400
Speaker 4: I do math right for you.

190
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 3: Ranger.

191
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, Ranger got twenty six a year, four more four

192
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 4: more years, I mean four more million a year for

193
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 4: Framber knowing he's making these thirty two starts. Dude, those

194
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 4: guys there's been some very mediocre pitchers who have not

195
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 4: even sniffed the resume that Framber Valdez has that made

196
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 4: every one of their starts that get nice contracts. So

197
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:42,840
Speaker 4: to do it, to do what Framber's done, and the

198
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:46,320
Speaker 4: fact that you know he makes his starts, there's there's

199
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 4: an extreme value there. The two years I think. I

200
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:52,679
Speaker 4: think basically they'll push him to four. He probably wanted five.

201
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,680
Speaker 4: You know, he looks at other guys that are signing

202
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 4: free agent picture contracts to thirty seven to thirty eight.

203
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:01,440
Speaker 4: I get, But I would agree with you that to

204
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:04,560
Speaker 4: guaranteed money, it might even be it might even be

205
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 4: one thirty. Somebody might go, okay, four years, one thirty,

206
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 4: but teams are just so reluctant to give more than

207
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 4: five years.

208
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,640

Speaker 2: number one meal kit, Hello Fresh. I do want to

229
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 2: throw this out there. Anybody that's like, oh, the Orioles

230
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:23,680
Speaker 2: are screwed. They are totally in a corner now with

231
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,560
Speaker 2: fran Bervaldez. Hold up, hold up for a sec. I

232
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:28,920
Speaker 2: completely agree. They need one more starter, and they're going

233
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:30,760
Speaker 2: to get one more starter. Let me throw a few

234
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,840
Speaker 2: other options out there. I don't think they're going to

235
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 2: land Freddy Peralta, but it's not out of the realm.

236
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 2: They've done this before with Corbin Burns, and it actually

237
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 2: worked out really well for them. They got Corbin, he

238
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 2: had a great year. He shoved in that one postseason start.

239
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 2: It wasn't his fault that they didn't continue to advance.

240
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 2: But that's just one option. Here's another. Zach Gallon is

241
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 2: still a free agent. I like Zach Gallon as a

242
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:54,560
Speaker 2: bounce back guy. In his last two months of this

243
00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 2: past season were good. I would rather sign him. So

244
00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:00,319
Speaker 2: there's another one. Trade options. There are still more than that.

245
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 2: There's still rumblings that Nick Pavetta might get dealt, and

246
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 2: I think he would pitch well there. So there are

247
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 2: other options for the Oreos beyond from Barbaldez. Clearly they've

248
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 2: had discussions and they're not yet on the same page

249
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 2: on a contract.

250
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 1: But when I see people be like, oh, they're screwed,

251
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 1: this is their only option.

252
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 2: Now, that's just not the case. That's not how teams

253
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 2: operate anymore. That's how they create leverage. They go, we don't.

254
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,200
Speaker 2: There are times when a team's like, damn, we really

255
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,160
Speaker 2: need this guy, and I feel like the Yankees are

256
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 2: in that spot with Bellinger. But in most other cases,

257
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,320
Speaker 2: it's like we have three or four other starting pitching

258
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,079
Speaker 2: options that we can look at in the trader free

259
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 2: agent we.

260
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 3: Can make a case that they're not that much worse

261
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:36,680
Speaker 3: than you.

262
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, our projections have you five percent better to you know,

263
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 2: So I'm just throwing that out there. It would be nice,

264
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 2: that would be a nice fit for Baltimore, but they

265
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 2: are not ride or die on that scenario. Zach Gallon's

266
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 2: going to land somewhere and I think pitch really well

267
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,319
Speaker 2: for a team and he can handle whatever scenario.

268
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 1: And I think he wants to be on the East Coast.

269
00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 4: I was gonna say he might be the guy who

270
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:04,199
Speaker 4: may makes out the best after this Ranger deal. Like

271
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:08,200
Speaker 4: you look at his numbers, Everyone's gonna say, well, what

272
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:12,000
Speaker 4: happened this past year? It's terrible. You know, last year

273
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:16,240
Speaker 4: the twenty four he made twenty eight starts, So you

274
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 4: know what's going on there? Do the Diamondbacks know something

275
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 4: that everyone else doesn't know? To me, I think he's

276
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 4: he possibly could get rate in the same range as

277
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 4: Ranger because of the fact that he was making his

278
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 4: starts way better, way better numbers than Ranger. In the

279
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:37,440
Speaker 4: regular season he's been three times, he's been top five.

280
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,079
Speaker 4: I think in the cy Young voting hasn't been there

281
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 4: last two years, so that will drop his value. But

282
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:46,960
Speaker 4: I think people are putting too much stock into what

283
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:50,359
Speaker 4: he just did and not the full body of work.

284
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:52,760
Speaker 2: Agreed, which is why he might have to do one

285
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:56,520
Speaker 2: of those higher A the opt out situations, and then

286
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:57,839
Speaker 2: hit the market one more time.

287
00:13:57,960 --> 00:13:59,839
Speaker 3: But I'd love to get Gallon on to talk about this.

288
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:01,200
Speaker 1: We will, I mean not.

289
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:02,960
Speaker 2: You don't talk to guys when they're going through this,

290
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 2: but afterwards we try to talk to them. But for

291
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,679
Speaker 2: the Red Sox, I mean, hey, they they have taken

292
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 2: a different turn with pitching, and a good one with

293
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,079
Speaker 2: pitching under Craig Breslow. That's one part that he's done

294
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,240
Speaker 2: a nice job with. And this isn't the ultimate stuff

295
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:18,840
Speaker 2: guy either. This is the six pitch mix, low walk, command,

296
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 2: control fields, his position really well holds runners right. Like,

297
00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 2: this is a different type of pitcher that deserves to

298
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 2: be paid just because he doesn't blow you away with stuff.

299
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:30,200
Speaker 1: So I think that's cool.

300
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 2: And my last point is that I think the Red

301
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 2: Sox are officially over there Chris Sale contract PTSD because

302
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 2: it didn't work out after he signed the big deal

303
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 2: and then they trade him away and then he becomes

304
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:44,320
Speaker 2: a stud again. And now they've given out big money

305
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 2: to Gragrett Crochet last year and to Ranger Suarez. So

306
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 2: good for Boston, good pivot, good.

307
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 1: Yep. Media can get off of them a little bit.

308
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 1: It's not even media.

309
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 2: Fans can get off of them a little bit too

310
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 2: and be like, okay, okay, I understand.

311
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 1: They've done things this offseason. They're not just sitting around.

312
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 2: We are announcing pieces of our spring training tour. We

313
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 2: are going to be in both Florida and Arizona, just

314
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 2: like last year.

315
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,640
Speaker 1: We're not giving you dates and teams just yet. We're

316
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 1: working on that.

317
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 2: But one thing we can give you is the start

318
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 2: of the spring training tour, and that includes something that

319
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 2: we talk about somewhat frequently on this show, and that's

320
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 2: the Playmaker's Classic, which is one of the biggest charity

321
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:33,080
Speaker 2: events of the year in baseball and it involves by

322
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 2: far the most players you'll ever see at an event.

323
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:39,119
Speaker 1: And we will be there in Arizona.

324
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,720
Speaker 2: I'm not promising which of the cast of many FT

325
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,280
Speaker 2: characters will be there, although I can promise this guy,

326
00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 2: but we will be there. FT will do shows from

327
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 2: your Playmakers Classic. I probably will not be there. Yeah,

328
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 2: do you know that I am likely not doing almost

329
00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 2: anything on site.

330
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 3: For the Spender rating for me, it's better for you

331
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 3: to be around you.

332
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 2: It's better for the players, it's better for technology in

333
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 2: case a team has that minor league WiFi and most.

334
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 1: Of them are good, but not all of them.

335
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 2: But also you know how you do your thing in

336
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 2: between you're talking to a guy and then he comes

337
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 2: to down. Who's going to be there on the side

338
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 2: to just keep us going? I guess my role, Hey,

339
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 2: I got to take the hit Crafts. Somebody can't go

340
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 2: and have fun on the road in Florida and spring

341
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 2: training and in Arizona.

342
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:31,080
Speaker 1: So actually it's it's me and you.

343
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:36,200
Speaker 4: That's exactly That's exactly what aj AJ's built for.

344
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 3: That.

345
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 4: That's why aj will never be a manager of a team,

346
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:43,120
Speaker 4: because you can't go to visit everybody while you're being

347
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 4: a manager. He's a travelman. He can't be a travelman.

348
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 3: Yes, you can, Crafts because Kevin Kiermeyer wants to do it.

349
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 3: He wants to work for all thirty teams at the

350
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 3: same time. So why can't you do it? Why can't

351
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 3: you do it? I don't understand.

352
00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 1: That's going to have to be continued. I can't believe

353
00:16:58,000 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 1: we had him on on the day.

354
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 4: That that was that was a fail.

355
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:05,639
Speaker 3: I told you I saw him in uh winter meetings, right.

356
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 1: M hm? And he man, did you guys debate or no?

357
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:11,080
Speaker 3: I said, I didn't even want a debate. I just

358
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:13,399
Speaker 3: went up to him and said, hey, I heard we

359
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:16,440
Speaker 3: didn't agree on your idea. I said, you know, let's

360
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,639
Speaker 3: come on and let's have a discussion. And he did.

361
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 1: He say okay.

362
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 3: He said okay, but it was and I was like, look,

363
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:25,639
Speaker 3: I hope it works for you. How's it going. He's like, oh,

364
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:27,960
Speaker 3: it's going great. But I was standing there talking to

365
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:30,760
Speaker 3: Katie Blue at the same time. She had walked by,

366
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 3: and she looked at me and goes, that was a

367
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,120
Speaker 3: little bit awkward, and I said, well, so we kind

368
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,000
Speaker 3: of had. And then I explained the whole thing to

369
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,119
Speaker 3: her and she's like, oh, that's why he kind of

370
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,280
Speaker 3: looked a little He turned a little like white when

371
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,919
Speaker 3: he saw you. Well, and I was like, well, I

372
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 3: don't have any problem with Kevin here. I have absolutely

373
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,119
Speaker 3: let me make this great guy. I've always got along

374
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 3: with him. I have no problem with kiirmi Rob just

375
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 3: because I said I don't think what he's going to

376
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,439
Speaker 3: do is going to work. And he has other opinions.

377
00:17:58,480 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 3: I hope it does work because if it works for

378
00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:01,880
Speaker 3: him and the crowds can go work for thirty teams

379
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 3: as the catching instructor.

380
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:06,480
Speaker 4: On Thursdays, just on Thursdays.

381
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 3: That's the only well there's thirty thursdays throughout the year,

382
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:10,360
Speaker 3: so we can figure it out.

383
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 1: We can even double up with some teams if they

384
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:12,960
Speaker 1: pay you double.

385
00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 3: True. Yeah, true.

386
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 2: I would love to see that debate, and not even

387
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:20,080
Speaker 2: in like I'm saying it, just in a genuine entertainment factor,

388
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 2: just like I'm really anxious to try and get a

389
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 2: ticket to the Trek Schooble Arbitration super Bowl. But I

390
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:31,560
Speaker 2: would love to see Kevin and AJ actually talk out

391
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,360
Speaker 2: why this wood and wouldn't work behind the scenes right,

392
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:36,560
Speaker 2: what the we'll do would be? Anyway, I want to

393
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:37,200
Speaker 2: stay on track for.

394
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 3: A second, but also about spring training Arizona and Florida,

395
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 3: and as much as Kratz as we're having fun for

396
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 3: the Playmaker's Classic and all the things we're doing when

397
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:55,160
Speaker 3: I travel around, fun being had is limited because I'm

398
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,879
Speaker 3: so damn tired at the end, Like it takes me

399
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 3: a month to recover from the month of ring training

400
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:01,000
Speaker 3: that we do.

401
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 1: It's not like bigger spring training. No, it's more rigorous.

402
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:07,879
Speaker 3: Because especially some teams, like I'll use the Diamondbacks and

403
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,399
Speaker 3: your Snake's territory shirt. We had to be at the

404
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:14,280
Speaker 3: Diamondbacks last year like five in the morning. I mean

405
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:16,040
Speaker 3: I got there at six thirty, but the crew had

406
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:20,399
Speaker 3: to be there five. Yeah, okay. And plus I had

407
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:25,400
Speaker 3: to sleep with Michael in the same house condos whatever,

408
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:26,400
Speaker 3: made in the.

409
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:27,399
Speaker 1: Same bed, you guys know.

410
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,120
Speaker 3: But it was it was, it was from It wasn't

411
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 3: very far away. That's it was close enough to where

412
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 3: I could hear him.

413
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,160
Speaker 2: He has an alarm clock problem, and I think that's

414
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:38,160
Speaker 2: being rectified, gentleman clock.

415
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:40,160
Speaker 3: But I think I don't want to share a bathroom.

416
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 1: Is that what you had to do?

417
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 4: Yes?

418
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:43,480
Speaker 1: Well, guess what we've grown up.

438
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:38,480
Speaker 3: something And this is way off the topic. I can't

439
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 3: wait to go to Playmakers, but I have to ask Scott.

440
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 3: I know Scott's answer, But Kratz, have you ever played pickleball?

441
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:45,520
Speaker 4: Yeah?

442
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:47,639
Speaker 3: I played today for the first time, Like I actually

443
00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:49,240
Speaker 3: played pickle ever first time.

444
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, you did invite me. I would have played.

445
00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 3: You played pickleball?

446
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 2: You don't think I play. No, I played tennis. I've

447
00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,800
Speaker 2: played pickleball and paddles.

448
00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:03,560
Speaker 1: My I paddle is awesome. Wait, why aren't we playing paddle?

449
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:04,359
Speaker 1: I want to play.

450
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 3: I play paddle an we're gonna start. But anyways, that's

451
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:11,439
Speaker 3: what sky you irrelevant. I played pickleball this morning for

452
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 3: the first time. I've been on a core and kind

453
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,199
Speaker 3: of dinked and pooped dinner, pooped it over the net

454
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 3: and all that. But I actually played today. It was

455
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:20,880
Speaker 3: kind of it was much more fun then I thought

456
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:22,440
Speaker 3: it was going to be, and it was much more

457
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:24,040
Speaker 3: exercise than I thought it would be.

458
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:30,200
Speaker 2: But to me, paddle wipes off the floor, not even close.

459
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:34,119
Speaker 2: It's not even close. So that's why for me, I

460
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:35,800
Speaker 2: was like, yeah, this is this is nice. But I'd

461
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,959
Speaker 2: already played paddle first and then played pickleball, and I

462
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 2: was just like, if I'm going to not play tennis

463
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:43,840
Speaker 2: and this is what I'm going to play, I'm playing paddle.

464
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:45,639
Speaker 3: A couple of years ago, I got to go to

465
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 3: the racket. They have a racket convention here, like a

466
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 3: rack at the convention Center, and it was and they

467
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 3: had paddle and I got to play with like one

468
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,359
Speaker 3: of the top players in the world. You want to

469
00:21:56,359 --> 00:22:00,360
Speaker 3: talk about impressive. Can you even like return from the Yeah,

470
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,120
Speaker 3: you can't can because you know it hits the wall

471
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 3: and you bounce it off and all that stuff. But

472
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 3: they just make it look so easy. I'm puffing and

473
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:09,360
Speaker 3: puffing and they know as soon as it's hit it's

474
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:10,479
Speaker 3: going to hit the wall, and I can go up

475
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,520
Speaker 3: to the net and do this, and it's like, you.

476
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,320
Speaker 2: Know how in paddle you can find those angles where

477
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:17,480
Speaker 2: it's like almost impossible because you're going to smack your

478
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 2: racket against the wall.

479
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:19,600
Speaker 1: I feel like that's what.

480
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 3: No, But yeah, they know how to do yeah, obviously better.

481
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 3: But of course, but pickleball. Listen, I've always made fun

482
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,639
Speaker 3: of pickleball and my friends that played pickleball, but I

483
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,359
Speaker 3: played it today. I was impressed. It was fun. It

484
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:32,840
Speaker 3: was more fun than I thought it would be.

485
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,639
Speaker 2: Totally agreed. Yeah, it's a fun time, all right, so

486
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,400
Speaker 2: we'll have to all play. Let's charge.

487
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:40,640
Speaker 3: Charge.

488
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:47,080
Speaker 2: Derek from Pinstripe Territory had a great kickstart to his

489
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 2: episode about the Yankees acquiring Ryan Weathers from the Miami Marlins.

490
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:54,560
Speaker 1: He was like, I thought that the Yankees.

491
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 2: Were going to acquire someone whose dad played as part

492
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:02,960
Speaker 2: of the nineties nine Steve for the Yankees. Cody Bellinger

493
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:05,160
Speaker 2: not a key part, but I'm just saying someone who

494
00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:07,199
Speaker 2: played on the team during that time period, and instead

495
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:08,200
Speaker 2: it's Ryan Weathers.

496
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 1: Is that Dave David pitched for the Yankees. But anyway,

497
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:15,360
Speaker 1: here comes a starter. Young starter from the Marlins. Marlins

498
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:18,040
Speaker 1: shedding starters apparently they have too many, and then there

499
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 1: are four prospects going the other way to the Marlins.

500
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,320
Speaker 1: What do we think about this one? For the Yanks?

501
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,680
Speaker 3: It's a nice rotation piece. Yeah, he can be he could.

502
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:32,080
Speaker 3: They have a lot of lefties now rode on great night,

503
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:34,680
Speaker 3: throw weathers in. When are they getting cold back? He'll

504
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 3: Schlitzler whereas he what's his role?

505
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:38,479
Speaker 1: Those guys aren't all lefties.

506
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:40,439
Speaker 3: I know there's three three of the three of the

507
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 3: five or lefties, and he's probably slide in a fourish

508
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:48,399
Speaker 3: in the rotation four to five ish. So I'd like

509
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:53,360
Speaker 3: this rotation. Uh. I do like this rotation a lot.

510
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,479
Speaker 3: And I like the death with Blackburn and Yarborough, who

511
00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:57,440
Speaker 3: can do a bunch of different things. And then when

512
00:23:57,480 --> 00:23:59,879
Speaker 3: they get cold back, and obviously Redond's not listened to.

513
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,680
Speaker 3: He's not healthy right now. But I like this move

514
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 3: and and listen, I don't know anything about the guys

515
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,400
Speaker 3: who they gave up for it, but he's a young

516
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,560
Speaker 3: lefty controlled arm. I was upside. What's not to like

517
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:12,720
Speaker 3: about this? And if you're the Marlins like this, isn't

518
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 3: this the kind of guy that you want to hang

519
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 3: on to for a couple of years, and if you're trying,

520
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:19,919
Speaker 3: as they said, we're still trying to compete, Like, wouldn't

521
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:21,920
Speaker 3: this be a guy you'd want to try to compete with?

522
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 4: That was that was my whole thought, Like, how did

523
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:30,560
Speaker 4: Ryan Weathers get into the category of Eduard Cabrera and

524
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,360
Speaker 4: Sandy al Contra who was supposed to be traded last

525
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,840
Speaker 4: year and now he's still there because his value wasn't

526
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 4: where they thought.

527
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:38,920
Speaker 1: It was.

528
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:42,639
Speaker 4: Like to me, I think you can look at you

529
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:44,400
Speaker 4: can look at that depth, you can look at the

530
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 4: pieces they have in the rotation. Obviously, when Rodn and

531
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 4: Cole come back, nobody's taking their spots. But maybe there's

532
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:57,560
Speaker 4: a little bit of a belief in the larger markets

533
00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 4: like the Dodgers, like the blue Jays, that oh, we

534
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:05,960
Speaker 4: need to have more than six starters. We need to

535
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 4: have more than six guys who can make a start

536
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:11,439
Speaker 4: in the big leagues for us, and I think this

537
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 4: is a great piece to do that. Now he has

538
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:17,280
Speaker 4: never thrown out of the bullpen. I said that pretty confidently.

539
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:19,360
Speaker 2: And now now he has a little bit, he has

540
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,120
Speaker 2: a little bit. Crats fifty five starts fifteen. Relief appearance

541
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:23,120
Speaker 2: is not a lot though, But.

542
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:28,320
Speaker 4: Yes, okay, okay, so he has, but I thought that

543
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:31,720
Speaker 4: was early when he first came up. And now last

544
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 4: year he cleaned up a little bit of his He

545
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 4: remember reading an article about how he cleaned up his health,

546
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:39,800
Speaker 4: and he wanted to be able to stay healthy throughout

547
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:43,359
Speaker 4: the year. The biggest thing for the Yankees here is

548
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 4: the fact that they get three years of control out

549
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:50,439
Speaker 4: of this guy, Like I think that's there's value in that,

550
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:52,920
Speaker 4: And there's value in the fact that they have three

551
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 4: other guys that are currently slotted in that have started

552
00:25:56,240 --> 00:26:01,600
Speaker 4: big league games in their bullpen. So you don't resign

553
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 4: Devin Williams, you don't resign Luke Weaver. Maybe they find

554
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:08,680
Speaker 4: lightning in a bottle with one of these guys becoming

555
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:12,639
Speaker 4: a reliever at some point. But I was surprised when

556
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:14,400
Speaker 4: I saw this. I was also surprised when I saw

557
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:18,959
Speaker 4: four guys going back, And what AJ said is exactly

558
00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:21,639
Speaker 4: what I thought. I don't know any of those guys' names,

559
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 4: so it probably means the Marlins were kind of looking

560
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:28,439
Speaker 4: for more of a shoot a wider swath against the

561
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 4: wall and see what sticks instead of that one prospect.

562
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:35,200
Speaker 4: That would be a straight up trade for Ryan Weathers.

563
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:37,920
Speaker 3: Yeah. But if you here's the thing, if you're kind

564
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:39,560
Speaker 3: of Ryan Weathers to give you a lot of innings.

565
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:42,959
Speaker 3: His career yan innings is ninety four. Is Edward Carberro

566
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:48,080
Speaker 3: again a least said, someone's recording us, by the way,

567
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 3: I don't know.

568
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,080
Speaker 4: Who, but we're always being recorded.

569
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:55,199
Speaker 3: Not normally. They don't tell me before. That's usually hidden wave.

570
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:57,720
Speaker 3: I don't know, but it just goes recording in progress.

571
00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 3: This is but I mean, he threw thirty eight innings

572
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 3: in the major leagues last year, eighty six and twenty

573
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:07,120
Speaker 3: twenty four. Yeah, not a strikeout guy. He doesn't even

574
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 3: have a strikeout per inning.

575
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 4: Oh, he was trying to be He was trying to

576
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 4: change his health. He was trying like he did it.

577
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:17,720
Speaker 4: He didn't diet, makeover to lose weight and try to

578
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,520
Speaker 4: stay healthy, but didn't.

579
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,640
Speaker 3: Innings last year in the big leagues. It didn't work.

580
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,600
Speaker 1: Yes, it's a great flyer for the Yankees.

581
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 3: It is a great thing. Again, I don't know who

582
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:31,040
Speaker 3: they gave up. Maybe JJ Cooper obviously knows much more

583
00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:34,400
Speaker 3: about that than I do. But yeah, it's it's it's

584
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 3: one of those. It's it's a weird time for the

585
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 3: Marlins unless they know something that someone else doesn't know

586
00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:42,120
Speaker 3: to trade a guy with three years of control that

587
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:45,000
Speaker 3: they're does the Marlins have that much pitching in their.

588
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:47,200
Speaker 1: Way think they can just move this guy. They think

589
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 1: they do. I don't, because this is.

590
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:50,959
Speaker 3: The second guy.

591
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:56,680
Speaker 2: You've got Sandy al contract Ury Perez, Braxton, Garrett Max Meyer,

592
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 2: who has needed to get a full.

593
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,199
Speaker 3: Run jup given my junk up.

594
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:01,879
Speaker 1: And then they have one of the.

595
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:04,720
Speaker 2: Top pitching prospects in the sport Thomas White, and a

596
00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:07,520
Speaker 2: very solid pitching prospect in Robbie Snelling. Those are the

597
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:10,840
Speaker 2: ones that I know somewhat well, right, And so that's

598
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:11,560
Speaker 2: more than five.

599
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,680
Speaker 4: But you need a whole organization.

600
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:16,920
Speaker 1: No, I mean there's more.

601
00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 3: But but also, okay, let's be let's one hundred percent

602
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,640
Speaker 3: of let's be transparent here with this whole thing. None

603
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:27,280
Speaker 3: of those guys, maybe Sandy Eurie Perez is up and

604
00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:28,600
Speaker 3: down at times, and he's got.

605
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 1: Stuff, super talented.

606
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 3: Junk was a guy that kind of came out of

607
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 3: nowhere last year. Meyer is a guy they've been talking

608
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,560
Speaker 3: about forever and he never has really put it together.

609
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 3: Is this a rotation, like they say, the Marlins, we're

610
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 3: gonna compete with what we got. Is this a rotation

611
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:45,040
Speaker 3: you look at and say it can compete in the

612
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:50,600
Speaker 3: NL East with the Braves, the Phillies, the Mets. I mean,

613
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:53,160
Speaker 3: this to me has all the makings. And listen, and

614
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 3: mcollough did a great job last year, and Idy sorry, sorry,

615
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 3: Clayton McCulla did a great job last year with this team.

616
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,280
Speaker 3: But at this moment, right now, they have no they

617
00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 3: have limited offense, and they just they don't have any pitching.

618
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:08,960
Speaker 4: Really.

619
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 3: I mean, I know they'll mix a match and do

620
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 3: the things they do, but at some point, you know,

621
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,120
Speaker 3: listen to Raise Way and I know Peter Bendix is

622
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,760
Speaker 3: a raised guy, but at some point the Rays also

623
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:21,960
Speaker 3: had really good pitchers and really good players.

624
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 1: For a long time. The Marlins think they have all that.

625
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 2: They think they have really good pitching already, and they

626
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:29,080
Speaker 2: don't want people to get in the way, veterans get

627
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 2: in the way of their young products.

628
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:32,560
Speaker 3: Why do they trade Sandy talent?

629
00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 1: They don't feel like they're getting the value yet for him,

630
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 1: so they'll trade him.

631
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:38,840
Speaker 3: Why not trade Juri Pres He's been around like two years.

632
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 2: I know, Well that's the thing. You look from a

633
00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 2: Marlins perspective and you're like, these guys, I think they're

634
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 2: playing the cell high game.

635
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:51,640
Speaker 1: That's what I think, Krats.

636
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 2: I think they're playing the I don't even know if

637
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:57,960
Speaker 2: you'd call it sell high for weathers. For Edward, no,

638
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,880
Speaker 2: I guess I mean for weathers. There are parts of

639
00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 2: his game that people like he does. The fifth percentage

640
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,240
Speaker 2: doesn't really match the strikeouts, right, He's getting swing and

641
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 2: miss on pitches, but not putting guys away.

642
00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:11,840
Speaker 1: So is there a pitch sequencing thing.

643
00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 2: Yes, there's obviously health a health component here, But I

644
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:18,240
Speaker 2: mean he throws hard. He's averaging about ninety seven on

645
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 2: his heater. That's upper echelon for a starting pitcher. So

646
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:23,440
Speaker 2: I think the Yankees think they're going to bring someone

647
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 2: in and they're going to be able to either turn

648
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:29,440
Speaker 2: him into an underrated starter or convert him into a

649
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:32,200
Speaker 2: full time bullpen guy. I mean, not to use the

650
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:36,200
Speaker 2: direct example. Here's nothing stuff wise comparison, but Luke Weaver

651
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:38,840
Speaker 2: comes over and was toiling around and then all of

652
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,480
Speaker 2: a sudden becomes a high leverage arm for the Yankees.

653
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:45,240
Speaker 3: So anyway, Let's for not forget the most important part

654
00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 3: about Ryan Weathers.

655
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:47,280
Speaker 1: His dad.

656
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:48,080
Speaker 3: He married a Gator.

657
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 1: He married a Florida Gator, next Florida Gator. Yeah, I

658
00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 1: didn't know that as a volleyball player. Volleyball player.

659
00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,800
Speaker 2: Okay, So for the Marlins, they clearly feel like they're

660
00:30:57,800 --> 00:30:59,560
Speaker 2: in a good spot to just keep shedding starting pitching.

661
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 2: For the Yanks, they get a little depth. I don't

662
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:03,640
Speaker 2: think they're going to do anything else pitching wise. Now

663
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,719
Speaker 2: they're going to focus on the Bellinger marriage. Let's hit

664
00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 2: Leah sneaking in a little futures on the Braves. Eighty

665
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:21,960
Speaker 2: seven and a half wins over under bet MGM has

666
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:26,160
Speaker 2: them right up in that playoff range. I mean, that's

667
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:27,520
Speaker 2: a playoff team these days.

668
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 1: If you win eighty seven eighty eight games, right right

669
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:33,240
Speaker 1: on that cusp.

670
00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 3: Well, I want to say over, but this is really

671
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 3: hard for me. I think that they shored up their

672
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:42,720
Speaker 3: bullpen with Suarez and the Glaciers. They brought Glaciers back.

673
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 3: I think Sales Strider another year off, Tommy John, I

674
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:51,120
Speaker 3: don't see Akunya Albi's, Riley Olsen, all of them having

675
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,600
Speaker 3: down years again. They have Drake Baldwin a full year

676
00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:57,960
Speaker 3: of profar not on steroids. We'll see how that goes.

677
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:01,239
Speaker 3: I think eighty I think this is eighty eight to eight.

678
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 3: It's a tough division with the Phillies and the Mets,

679
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:05,480
Speaker 3: but I think they're in eighty eight to eighty nine.

680
00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:06,280
Speaker 3: So I'm gonna go over.

681
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:11,320
Speaker 4: The Marlins keep trading away their team, so yeah, absolutely,

682
00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:14,360
Speaker 4: the Braves are gonna. I think the Braves are gonna.

683
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:16,720
Speaker 4: I think they're an eighty nine win team. I think

684
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:21,240
Speaker 4: this division could have two ninety plus win teams, and

685
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 4: I think eighty seven is a is a good number

686
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:27,240
Speaker 4: to buy the over, I really do. I don't see

687
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:33,640
Speaker 4: how they've just absolutely added to this bullpen. I believe

688
00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:37,080
Speaker 4: in this. I believe in this starting starting, you know,

689
00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:40,760
Speaker 4: position player or rotation that they got going on, where

690
00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:43,600
Speaker 4: now they can mix and match. Not everybody has to

691
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:45,880
Speaker 4: play one hundred and sixty two. As much as they

692
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,320
Speaker 4: want to, they don't have to. I think they've given

693
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 4: themselves a little bit more depth, change of voice. I

694
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:55,080
Speaker 4: don't see how this team has to be good enough

695
00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,360
Speaker 4: to make the playoffs, and I think the playoffs lit

696
00:32:57,480 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 4: the playoff line is eighty six, So I love the

697
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:02,200
Speaker 4: fact that they they gave us to us right at

698
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:04,080
Speaker 4: that line. So I'm taking the over.

699
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:07,760
Speaker 1: I'm taking the over as well, full healthy season, hopefully

700
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:09,240
Speaker 1: for Acuna bouncebacks.

701
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:12,200
Speaker 2: The rotation really got hit. I know many teams used

702
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:15,040
Speaker 2: the injury excuse. I mean they lost all of their

703
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:17,280
Speaker 2: starters at different times, like they really took a hit.

704
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 1: And wait, here's the X factor.

705
00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 2: Last year we talked about it before the season started,

706
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,040
Speaker 2: the Gauntlet, and the Gauntlet was even worse than we

707
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:27,280
Speaker 2: thought it was, going out to the West Coast to

708
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:30,920
Speaker 2: face start the Dodgers team feeling themselves and the Padres

709
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 2: and getting just dusted. This year, they start their season

710
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,160
Speaker 2: at home and they welcome in the Kansas City Royals,

711
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:40,120
Speaker 2: followed by the Sacramento As. Then they go on the

712
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 2: road to take on the Diamondbacks and Angels. Point is,

713
00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:44,680
Speaker 2: and there's some Marlins and Nats Is mixed into the

714
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:48,560
Speaker 2: beginning of their season. Point is, I anticipate a better

715
00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:50,560
Speaker 2: start than zero to seven. And I know that it

716
00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 2: sounds crazy, but they never really recovered from that.

717
00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 1: No, they did not, So I feel that.

718
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:59,160
Speaker 3: Start, especially with all the banged up they were. Lopez

719
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:01,160
Speaker 3: is supposed to be back, right, chmister Arver is supposed

720
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:05,160
Speaker 3: to be back. Schedule matters, schedule matter, especially early in

721
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:09,520
Speaker 3: the years. Sale shsh.

722
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:12,239
Speaker 4: They're gonna be good. Yeah, it's gonna be fun. They're

723
00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:15,120
Speaker 4: gonna be good, especially if the Matt ever adds to

724
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:17,480
Speaker 4: their team. It's gonna be really fun.

725
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:21,560
Speaker 2: What wiss Yeah, what Whis's gonna do a great job.

726
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:25,359
Speaker 2: I'm a fan. I think he's going to farewell. All right,

727
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,160
Speaker 2: let's tell people what they can do if they want

728
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:33,719
Speaker 2: to throw down on the NBA no sweat token your

729
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:36,359
Speaker 2: steak backing bonus bets up to one thousand dollars. If

730
00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:39,399
Speaker 2: your bet doesn't hit, log in, grab the token, use

731
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 2: it on a qualifying NBA bet attached to token in

732
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:42,680
Speaker 2: your bet slip.

733
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:44,319
Speaker 1: That's it. If the bet doesn't win, you get your

734
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:47,719
Speaker 1: steak back in bonus bets. Gambling problem more concerned called

735
00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:48,760

00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:30,879
Speaker 2: the WBC. We haven't been doing this on every single show,

748
00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:34,360
Speaker 2: but like, remember we learned about bust In Griffin Jackson.

749
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:36,720

752
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:43,640
Speaker 2: who can try and shut down some lefties?

753
00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 3: By the way, is there an easier pick for Tmosa?

754
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:48,960
Speaker 3: And Griffin Jacks who went to the Air Force Academy

755
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,120

Speaker 3: his wife is in the Air Force Reserves.

757
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 1: Like, come on, Paul Skins is easier, but.

758
00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:55,680
Speaker 4: No he's not.

759
00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:58,799
Speaker 3: No, he's not. Griffin Jackson actually, like I know was

Speaker 3: for tears actually like in there.

762
00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:09,040
Speaker 4: It's so cool to see somebody who like is active

763
00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:12,960
Speaker 4: considered active military playing for Team US. I played with

764
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 4: Noah Song when I played in twenty nineteen, Like just

765
00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:20,160
Speaker 4: like these guys were focused on our country for four

766
00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:23,320
Speaker 4: years in their education, but just how they talk about

767
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:26,880
Speaker 4: everything from standing at attention to the like it just

768
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:29,520
Speaker 4: it gives me chills thinking about listening to Noah who

769
00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:31,600
Speaker 4: didn't really say much, but when he did talk, you

770
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:33,680
Speaker 4: were like, yeah, like this is it.

771
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:38,439
Speaker 1: Last one? Dennis Lynn reported during the show.

772
00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:40,760
Speaker 2: The Padres have hired Bud Black as a senior advisor

773
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:42,879
Speaker 2: to Baseball Ops, so he's back with the Padres. Will

774
00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:46,879
Speaker 2: Myers a special assignment coach in player development, only working

775
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:50,400
Speaker 2: for one team, not thirty. It's twenty twenty six, Dennis

776
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:52,680
