Speaker 2: Eh, I don't know a lot.

20
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,519
Speaker 1: To talk about nothing, because that's kind of just what

21
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 1: happened this series is there wasn't a lot now before

00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 1: every single day. We got tweets going out. Weirdly enough,

32
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 1: for me, I've been taking a little bit of a

33
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:24,400
Speaker 1: social media hiatus. I'm going on forty eight hours of

34
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 1: not using Twitter or Instagram. I've been watching YouTube videos,

35
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 1: but I haven't even been checking like any stort of

36
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,040
Speaker 1: YouTube numbers outside the podcast.

37
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,399
Speaker 2: That's a sick brag, dude. Look at you whole weekend

38
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 2: off social media.

39
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 1: I know, right, Like, how many times have I ever

40
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 1: done that in my life?

41
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 2: Since? Have you found your inner piece? Are you aligned?

42
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,680
Speaker 1: You know? Roommate Alex asked, did you feel like if

43
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:46,320
Speaker 1: you were seeing things that you were missing? And I

44
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 1: was like, not really, I mean like I'm not that

45
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 1: super into my phone, but it definitely was nice to

46
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 1: just like be able to not worry about like I

47
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 1: need to tweet this or I need to look at

48
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 1: this video or check these numbers. It's definitely relaxing, and

49
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,559
Speaker 1: I think it was much near break. But I will say,

50
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,280
Speaker 1: watching these Mets games yesterday, all I wanted to do

51
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 1: is tweet, and I had to say I had to

52
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:09,359
Speaker 1: stay so disciplined because there were very or a lot

53
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 1: of tweetable things in yesterday's game.

54
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 2: Is this the Mets Up podcast or is this the

55
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 2: Marked Up podcast? Oh?

56
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 1: You know, I gotta sprinkle a little bit of my

57
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 1: own in there too. You can tell me about your

58
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 1: your personal triumphs that you've been doing this past weekend.

59
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 1: How would you do this weekend?

60
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,239
Speaker 2: The people want to be basically nothing. I wrote the

61
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 2: big article it's going to come out and pitt your

62
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 2: list on Monday, and then I sat down. I watched

63
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 2: a ton of sports, so much unbelievable amount of baseball

64
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 2: these last two days. It's been a pleasure, honestly.

65
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, And luckily for us, the Mets got two wins,

66
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 1: which is really nice because that makes watching baseball even

67
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 1: more enjoyable. Is when if they're not playing great at

68
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 1: least they're winning, and that's kind of what happened this year.

69
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:44,639
Speaker 2: Yeah. Absolutely, let's I kind of want to start with

70
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 2: Game three because you know it's fresh in our minds.

71
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 2: It was the most I mean, I won't say the

72
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,360
Speaker 2: most exciting things. The game almost pretty exciting both jumping

73
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,080
Speaker 2: to Game three because that was like, gave me palpitations.

74
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 2: I was sweating. Literally two hours and thirty minutes of

75
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:03,519
Speaker 2: nothing devolved into five minutes of it felt like it

76
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 2: felt like chaos, even though it wasn't that much chaos,

77
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 2: but it just felt just having a one run leading

78
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 2: chorus Field is like basically being tied anywhere else kind

79
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:11,920
Speaker 2: of feels like.

80
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 1: And all the Mets were doing this weekend, it felt

81
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,360
Speaker 1: like was keeping in one run games that we were winning.

82
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 1: The game that we lost, it wasn't a one run

83
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 1: game by any means.

84
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, leave it to the Mets to walk into Coors

85
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 2: Field and getting two pictures duels. It's classic.

86
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 1: We talked about this. Did you were you able to

87
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 1: find I guess like the last time that the Mets

88
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 1: or like the Mets hit a home only one home

89
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 1: run in a Corps series or eight runs in three games.

90
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 1: I can't imagine that's happened many times in the history of.

91
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 2: That's definitely coury especially, it felt like every time the

92
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 2: Mets have gone to chorus, they've put up crazy offensive numbers.

93
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 2: Get given that's also usually comes later in the season

94
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 2: when it's not thirty five degrees, but still, I don't know.

95
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 1: I always think of you know, and everyone thinks of Coors,

96
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 1: like you're gonna put up the numbers and to throw

97
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 1: eight up on the board against chie Chi, Gonzales, Herman Marquez,

98
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: who looked really good, let's be honest, and then who

99
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: pictures today and sends it to tell Yeah, senz Tella,

100
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 1: I mean like two absolute. I don't want to say

101
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 1: scrubs because that's just a little fish.

102
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 2: But historically chi Chi and Sensateela are both glorified batting

103
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 2: practice pitchers, those guys, especially in Coors. Yeah, since tensatiles

104
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 2: and innings. Either like he gets out there and he throws,

105
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 2: like he give the Rockies something and he has a

106
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 2: decent slider. Cat's pretty good, but it's okay. Yeah his

107
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 2: I'm gonna find his career era right now, because I

108
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 2: don't I mean, like three.

109
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 1: He was starting like you sitting ninety eight ninety seven today,

110
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 1: which is like, pretty good, that's good stuff. He just

111
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 1: doesn't have the other pictures to go along with it.

112
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 2: In four hundred and thirty seven career innings, Antonio Senzetel's

113
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 2: eras five point zero seven.

114
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 1: That's exactly where I would have pegged him right out.

115
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 2: Fine, yeah, and you got it, So you got you

116
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 2: gotta hit better than this. You gotta be a little

117
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 2: disappointed with the Mets bats again this series. Even though

118
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:44,480
Speaker 2: we thought we came out of it, we thought we

119
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 2: had gotten into a rhythm and a groove, but clearly

120
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:48,039
Speaker 2: that was just not the case.

121
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, we thought that this, especially like how we ended

122
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 1: the series coming into Cores, where it's you always have

123
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 1: the highest batting averages and the highest ops and there's

124
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,480
Speaker 1: just so much feel down in the outfield. The Mets

125
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,280
Speaker 1: made coors Field look I don't small is not the

126
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 1: right word, but they made it look huge as if

127
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:04,840
Speaker 1: it was. I mean, it's a big field to begin with. Yeah,

128
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 1: Corsefield is huge.

129
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 2: People kind of assume that Corsfield is small because of

130
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,920
Speaker 2: their run environment, but Corsfield actually, if you take every

131
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 2: single outfield in Major League Baseball, it has the most

132
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 2: square footage. That's kind of where the high batting averages

133
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 2: and balls and play and like the crazy offensive output's coming.

134
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 2: Coors Field. Home runs are a plenty shore, but mostly

135
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 2: it's finding those gaps and getting those balls in the corner.

136
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 2: There were a lot of good amount of balls hit

137
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 2: into that right field corner this weekend, but not enough.

138
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,160
Speaker 1: Not enough, I mean, I mean, technically enough. We got

139
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:32,599
Speaker 1: two wins.

140
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, technical enough.

141
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 1: Technically we did win the series when there were times

142
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 1: where it looked like this could have been a series

143
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 1: that we got swept in, which is crazy to say

144
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 1: with de gram Enz Stroman on the mound, but that's

145
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 1: just how inept the offense was this weekend. It wasn't

146
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 1: showing up. So let's go back to Game three here,

147
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 1: because that's the one that was fresh on our minds.

148
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 1: We had Stroman on the mound, and yet again, Marcus

149
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 1: Stroman fucking pitched his nuts off.

150
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 2: He is just no more nuts.

151
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 1: He's so good, so good.

152
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 2: Stroman looked amazing today. He employed a real Corps strategy.

153
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 2: He kept the ball down heavy mix of his sinkers

154
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,280
Speaker 2: and cols, got way more ground balls and called strikes

155
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 2: than whiffs. Stroman actually is kind of weird right now.

156
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 2: But he has the same amount of strikeouts as hits

157
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:20,040
Speaker 2: allowed this season, which is generally not the recipe for success,

158
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 2: but it's working right now. The only people who put

159
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:25,599
Speaker 2: a ball in play over one hundred miles an hour

160
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 2: were Trevor Story and Charlie Blackman, which is going to happen.

161
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 2: You can't keep those guys off the board. As awful

162
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 2: as the rest of his lineup has gotten in the

163
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:36,239
Speaker 2: last few years, those two are still stal wars professional hitters.

164
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:40,919
Speaker 2: Trevor Story future Yankee. But I digress again, keeping the

165
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 2: ball down, not so many fly balls, I feel like again,

166
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,800
Speaker 2: staying away from his slyer. Maybe he's just not feeling

167
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 2: it early in the season. Maybe that's just because he

168
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 2: knew he wouldn't be able to grip it as well

169
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,599
Speaker 2: in cores and he used to split there a little

170
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,240
Speaker 2: bit more to the last start. He pulled it out

171
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 2: when he needed it. It had the most whiffs on

172
00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 2: any of his pitches, but despite being the third most thrown,

173
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 2: it only fourteen percent, which in thirteen pitches, throwing fourteen

174
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 2: percent of his total pitches. There were six wings and three.

175
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 1: Whiffs, especially because like now it's just another thing, like

176
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,240
Speaker 1: when you're looking at Shruman, you're preparing for Struman, you

177
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 1: have to consider now even more that this is a

178
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 1: pitch that he can legitimately use and use as an outpitch.

179
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 2: Which definitely it's almost like he's becoming a guy who

180
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 2: is two different pitchers in one guy. He can come

181
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 2: out and rock four seam slytherer splither get wifs, be

182
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 2: like an up and down pitcher, or he can do

183
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 2: what he did today and what he did last time out,

184
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 2: where he just pounds the botb of his zone, pounds

185
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 2: sinker color sinker colors, eats those inside and outside corners,

186
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 2: just crushes them and then just gets out. Especially with

187
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 2: the new Mets new and improved defense.

188
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think Ron Darling even mentioned that during

189
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 1: the broadcast in the game, and he's talked about like

190
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 1: we have seen different Marcus Stromans and both of them

191
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 1: have been really, really good. So depending on who he's

192
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 1: playing and what the day is and how he's feeling

193
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 1: the weathers know that if one thing isn't working, it

194
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 1: seems like he can kind of make that shift into

195
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 1: the other version of Marcus stro and he's gonna end

196
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 1: up being fined now. Today things were working. He didn't

197
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 1: have to make any shift. It seemed like it was

198
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 1: a conscious effort. He was going in there looking for

199
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 1: ground balls, nonstoff.

200
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 2: He was working so quickly. The pace was amazing this game.

201
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 2: In the eighth inning, I had only taken like two

202
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 2: hours and fifteen minutes. It was shockingly fast.

203
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 1: Besides how boring it was offensively, if you're like a

204
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 1: true fan of baseball and just like quick pace, like

205
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 1: old school baseball kind of stuff like, this was a

206
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,120
Speaker 1: really enjoyable game to watch because the pace was great,

207
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 1: balls were being put in play constantly. There weren't a

208
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 1: lot of strikeouts in this game from the Rocky side

209
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 1: at least, and it's just like good defense, good plays.

210
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:36,240
Speaker 1: Strowman also only had I think, like what eighty eight

211
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 1: pitches through eight or something like that.

212
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 2: No, it was at the I think he had less

213
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 2: going into the eighth. He came out of the game

214
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 2: with ninety two or ninety four or something like that,

215
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 2: not many.

216
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:46,600
Speaker 1: I think it was what like the seventh when he

217
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 1: gave up the.

218
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 2: First run of the game for yeah, seventh inning.

219
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think at the time they put up

220
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 1: a graphic on the you know screen while he was pitching,

221
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 1: and they said, like, he hadn't had an inning where

222
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 1: he threw more than twelve pitches.

223
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 2: Crazy, he came out of the game with ninety pitches

224
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 2: on the nose. I thought there was a chance he

225
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:01,079
Speaker 2: was gonna come out for the ninth.

226
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,960
Speaker 1: I thought so too, based on how well he was pitching.

227
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 1: But I actually do have to agree with the decision because,

228
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 1: especially because Blackman and Story have both been hitting the

229
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 1: ball the best out of anybody, we just got to

230
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:14,560
Speaker 1: give him a different look.

231
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 2: Those guys manufactured the only run of the game, and

232
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 2: as I said before, they were the only Rockies to

233
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 2: put the ball in play of at least one hundred

234
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 2: miles an hour. They were doing the damage.

235
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 1: They need to see a different look, and clearly Edwin

236
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 1: Diaz was while Story still got like that dinky little

237
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 1: reach over and get a hit because it's Coors Field.

238
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 1: I mean, Diaz was still looking really really sharp again.

239
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 2: Dude electric. He has been throwing bebies this year, Fastball's life.

240
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,960
Speaker 1: That was the Edwin Diaz like this series, especially because

241
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,440
Speaker 1: he's coming in one run games in Coors where he

242
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 1: has an issue of giving up home runs that's his

243
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:47,599
Speaker 1: big thing, and has an issue with like just the

244
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 1: hits fine in spots. He somehow was able to get

245
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:54,559
Speaker 1: through both of his appearances lights out. He was disgusting,

246
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 1: and that is the Edwin Diaz. Even when he like

247
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 1: the fly ball at McMahon hit in Game three that

248
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 1: Nimo caught right the fence. You saw him, he was like, Okay,

249
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:04,080
Speaker 1: we're good. They caught it. We're fine. Now.

250
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 2: I couldn't believe that ball got out that far. He

251
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 2: looked like he saw them off. Yeah, Roy McMahon is good.

252
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 2: I left this yearies respecting Ryan McMahon much more than

253
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 2: I did going in. Besides that throwing there he made

254
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:18,319
Speaker 2: in Game one yesterday, he was really putting the putting

255
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,119
Speaker 2: the ball everywhere in the field, putting.

256
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,200
Speaker 1: The ball everywhere, and he was making diving plays everywhere,

257
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 1: and like you said, that throw is the only bad one.

258
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 1: He almost made that sick double play today where Story

259
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 1: caught it like backhanded in the hole and then McMahon

260
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,080
Speaker 1: ran from second base to cut in front of him

261
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 1: and the throw was I'm targeting pretty slad. He was

262
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,319
Speaker 1: just a tough play to make. But mcman's looks like

263
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 1: he's a little bit of a ball player out there

264
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 1: is the one that could be someone keeping.

265
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 2: Eyes and that relay from Blackman's and McMahon to Fuentes

266
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:48,040
Speaker 2: to Nab McNeil, those balls in the corner are always

267
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 2: triples and cores nine times out of ten. And McNeil's

268
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 2: not a slow runner. And he had a good jump

269
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:54,760
Speaker 2: and he was moving. That was just a bang bang,

270
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 2: perfect relay play. And to jump to game one for

271
00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:01,080
Speaker 2: a second, the play that they made on the VR

272
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 2: pinch hit for al Mora. Yeah, Amore was safe by

273
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:05,960
Speaker 2: like a fingernail.

274
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 1: By literally he just he almore made a perfect slide,

275
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:12,320
Speaker 1: perfect perfect slide and they made a perfect relay throw

276
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,079
Speaker 1: and almost got him literally if if he tried to

277
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 1: slide anywhere else on the plate, he's out.

278
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 2: Yeah that's I was sick, But just to stick with

279
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 2: game three before we move on to Game one. James mccannon,

280
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,480
Speaker 2: holy shit, I love him. That was sick.

281
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:25,440
Speaker 1: While he might not be doing much at the plate

282
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 1: right now, and he had some pretty horrible at bats today,

283
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 1: especially like the three to zero count where he rolled

284
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 1: over one to short stop.

285
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:32,839
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he had another two oh count where he

286
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 2: just like lunged at a like a ball and just

287
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,599
Speaker 2: like poofed it to a left field.

288
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 1: And I think, I gotta look this up maybe, but

289
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,240
Speaker 1: it seems like he's really trying to do too much

290
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 1: out of the eight hole, which is a weird sentence

291
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,079
Speaker 1: to say, but I think because he knows the picture

292
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 1: is coming up next, he's really trying to like make

293
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 1: an impact and not have it like be a walk

294
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:51,400
Speaker 1: with the picture coming up next. So it seems like

295
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 1: he's pressing a little bit. And that's what you see

296
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 1: with like the two oh strike where he's swagging kind

297
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:58,319
Speaker 1: of just lunged. The three to oh swing was atrocious,

298
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 1: but it doesn't matter because at the end of the

299
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 1: game mcannon, mccannon having a real catcher back there is

300
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 1: that throw was disgusting.

301
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 2: I want to like, no, I couldn't get I looked

302
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,719
Speaker 2: on Baseball Savants to try and find any time that

303
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 2: a Mets catcher ended a game with an assist detached

304
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:18,719
Speaker 2: in the search function, I couldn't find it. I think

305
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,080
Speaker 2: I was doing something wrong, but I wouldn't be surprised

306
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:22,080
Speaker 2: if it if it was true.

307
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:24,320
Speaker 1: And I think the thing that's gonna get slept on

308
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: about that throw too, is like Diaz is horrendous at

309
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 1: holding on.

310
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 2: Oh my god, he didn't even look, No.

311
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:32,319
Speaker 1: Didn't look once. And Ron Keith or Ron and Gary

312
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,959
Speaker 1: were both talking about it like, oh, you're running story here.

313
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 1: There's no doubt, especially against.

314
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,200
Speaker 2: Diaz, and you threw the pitch completely in rhythm. He

315
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,560
Speaker 2: gave absolutely no credence at all to the possibility that

316
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 2: the really fast guy who steals between twenty and thirty

317
00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 2: bases year on first base would possibly go with down

318
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 2: by one ninth inning.

319
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,680
Speaker 1: And he's also not quick to the plate either, all no,

320
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 1: with all his movement like he is the perfect guy

321
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 1: to steal off of. And somehow McCann was able to

322
00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 1: I mean host him, host him. That throw was an

323
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 1: app Bbie and Lindor also with the tag.

324
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 2: Is fantastic, slapped the end. Lindor immediately knew that he

325
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,599
Speaker 2: got that tag down. There was no question about it.

326
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 2: He was screaming. Also, throwing one hundred and one mile

327
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 2: in our fastball not an issue.

328
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 1: That was a great throw. That was a great you know,

329
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 1: little exclamation point to the end of the game. We

330
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 1: needed it because I was not feeling good.

331
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 2: No I was feeling bad. Text him, You texted me

332
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 2: not good.

333
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 1: Good. I feel great about today, especially like Diez is due.

334
00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 1: You know he's gonna blow on at some point.

335
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 2: Come on, be nice to Edwin's He's ed Win, not

336
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 2: ed Los. Edwin is. I don't want to say he's

337
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 2: locked in, but he looks kind of locked in. He's

338
00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 2: pitching with freaking confidence, and with a bunch of off

339
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 2: days coming in the next two weeks, you're gonna see

340
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 2: a lot more of.

341
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:46,960
Speaker 1: Him, especially at least like as a met This is

342
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,079
Speaker 1: probably the best streak of pitching from Edwin Dias that

343
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:51,840
Speaker 1: we've seen where he's been this lockedwn.

344
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, this and the end of last year too. The

345
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 2: last twenty games of last year was un hit the

346
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 2: ball because.

347
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 1: I think right now I don't. I don't have the

348
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 1: exact number, and I probably should. I'll get it. I'll

349
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 1: start looking for But I remember after Game one, I

350
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,439
Speaker 1: think they were talking about he has seventeen strikeouts out

351
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 1: of the twenty something batters he faced or something this year.

352
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 1: Is that correct?

353
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 2: You might be thinking of just the game one statistic

354
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 2: that the mess trek aut seventeen to twenty one batters.

355
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,520
Speaker 1: Maybe That's what I'm thinking. Yeah, yeah, because that would

356
00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 1: be unbelievable. But he is striking out an insane amount

357
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:21,720
Speaker 1: of batters still, which is awesome because swinging misses with

358
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:22,840
Speaker 1: him is his game of course.

359
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:24,880
Speaker 2: Yeah. Last thing I just want to bring up before

360
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 2: we move on to Game one is how big of

361
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 2: a day Pete had. He wasn't He loves hitting home

362
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 2: runs in cours Field, but seems like he just loves

363
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 2: hitting in chors Field. He put four balls to play

364
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,600
Speaker 2: today over one hundred miles an hour. Two of those

365
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 2: above one hundred and ten. That was the bang some

366
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 2: liners coming out there. Yeah, smoked the baseball a few times.

367
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 2: It looks comfortable at first too much more so in

368
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 2: the last couple of seasons.

369
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's looked. I think there's a huge defensive improvement

370
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 1: thus far this season. He seems like he's also trying

371
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 1: to do less, which is big because one of the

372
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 1: huge things with Pete that we know he loves to

373
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 1: do is he tries to do too much sometimes, and

374
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,720
Speaker 1: especially in the field. He loved to get deep in

375
00:14:57,760 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 1: the hole on the right side where the second baseball

376
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 1: would just feel it normally and have no problem and

377
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 1: he'd lay out, and it just seems like they've really

378
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 1: got him a little under control. And like, Pete, just

379
00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:07,040
Speaker 1: one stuff, you're right and left, that's all we need,

380
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:08,440
Speaker 1: Like catch the ball, hit home runs.

381
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 2: That was the Peace Special his rookie year, just diving

382
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,160
Speaker 2: and smothering a baseball right in front of the second

383
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 2: basement when the pitcher couldn't have gotten there fast enough

384
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 2: to cover because he cut it off too close to

385
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 2: the grass.

386
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 1: Would you got to work on the tosses to the

387
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 1: picture with him a little bit?

388
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:19,680
Speaker 2: He scares.

389
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 1: Yeah.

390
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Bomi Stroman jump today, that was pretty funny.

391
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 2: He's just excited that he's excited.

392
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I mean what he's there for is to hit,

393
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 1: and he's numbers aren't great yet, but he's starting to

394
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 1: at least like have better at bats and start hitting

395
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 1: the ball a lot more.

396
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 2: Few hits today, he's raising that average big time.

397
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,920
Speaker 1: Yes, And like we said, he's a two to fifty guy,

398
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 1: like at it on his best days.

399
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 2: So the two hits today, brothers average to two fifty.

400
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:43,560
Speaker 2: There we go.

401
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 1: On his best days, he's two fifty, is there we go?

402
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:48,680
Speaker 1: We did it, And then I wrote something about Pete

403
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 1: and I kind of lost it. Where is it? Because oh,

404
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 1: here we go. So it's technically was under the first

405
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 1: game notes, but I'm just gonna include it now because

406
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 1: we're talking about Pete. So what's crazy is about him

407
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 1: is his k rate is like astronomically high for him

408
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 1: right now, but somehow he's hitting the ball probably better

409
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:07,840
Speaker 1: than we've like really seen a lot with him. So

410
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:09,720
Speaker 1: it's because he just like hasn't hit the ball soft

411
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:11,600
Speaker 1: this year. I think on Fangrass right now, he does

412
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:14,880
Speaker 1: not have a soft hit ground ball at all this year.

413
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 2: It's like, oh my god. Yeah, contact rate, that's crazy.

414
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,400
Speaker 1: And he's taken what he had in soft contact last year,

415
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:22,400
Speaker 1: which was about like, I think fourteen to fifteen percent,

416
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:24,960
Speaker 1: and it's all gone to hard now. The medium stuff

417
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 1: has stayed the same, but when he's hitting the ball,

418
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 1: he's just crushing.

419
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,640
Speaker 2: Fangrass probably hasn't updated yet with today's four hard hit

420
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 2: balls and four at bats, so that's gonna go up.

421
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,000
Speaker 2: Pete also doesn't have a pop up this year. Pete

422
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,320
Speaker 2: was over thirteen percent pop ups in each of the

423
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:41,320
Speaker 2: last two seasons, so no pop ups at all massive,

424
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 2: It's huge.

425
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 1: The strikeouts are gonna be a thing with him always.

426
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 1: And it's again like his chase rate isn't really even

427
00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 1: that up either, He's just swinging and missing a little bit.

428
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 2: No, it's not the key actually that Pete has done

429
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 2: this season, which is different from years past. He is

430
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 2: not taking as many pitches. His zone swinging rate has

431
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 2: gone up by ten percent and the so a lot

432
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,520
Speaker 2: of the per pitch statistics will stabilize earlier in the

433
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:05,399
Speaker 2: season because of how many pitches guys see in a

434
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:09,200
Speaker 2: daily basis. So that is a trend that probably shows

435
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 2: an actual material improvement that Pete has made. He's taken

436
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:15,159
Speaker 2: four percent less called strikes and swung at ten percent

437
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,800
Speaker 2: more pitches in the zone, and that's how you get

438
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:19,680
Speaker 2: more base hits and raise your ratting average floor put

439
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:20,640
Speaker 2: more balls in play.

440
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,480
Speaker 1: Which is all great signs to see and kind of

441
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,639
Speaker 1: leads into what Pete did in Game one, which was

442
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:26,200
Speaker 1: huge for us. But he's not the star of the

443
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,480
Speaker 1: show in Game one. The start of the show in

444
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,199
Speaker 1: Game one is obviously.

445
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 2: Jacob de Grim Electric Factory. Every single time Jacob de

446
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:37,560
Speaker 2: Grim touches the mound, I stop everything I'm doing, Clear

447
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 2: my schedule, Clear my head and just sit and observe

448
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:44,240
Speaker 2: and joy. It's we are in the midst of one

449
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 2: of the greatest stretches of pitching in the history of baseball.

450
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,879
Speaker 2: And I have no issue saying that he Jacob deGrom

451
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:54,679
Speaker 2: this season has basically struck out half of the batters

452
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 2: he's faced. That's ignorant. For the eight point six percent

453
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 2: of batters he's have struck out, How could that, How

454
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:03,600
Speaker 2: could that even be possible?

455
00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 1: That's like not even video game numbers, because even in

456
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 1: a video game, they're just like, you're striking too many

457
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:09,440
Speaker 1: guys out. Let's put a ball in play or something.

458
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 1: Here's a fly ball. Forty eight point six percent is nuts.

459
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:17,720
Speaker 1: It is silly. That's is there any picture that's even

460
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 1: come anywhere even close to that?

461
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:22,520
Speaker 2: Like as a starter, No way, Burns is sitting around

462
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:26,359
Speaker 2: forty sixty seven percent right now, and Bieber after today,

463
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:28,560
Speaker 2: I think is in the mid forties too. But everyone

464
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 2: was sucking off Shane Bieber today for breaking Dylan Ryan's

465
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,919
Speaker 2: first four starts the season strikeout record. The Grom is

466
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,320
Speaker 2: almost definitely gonna get that next time out. Like he's

467
00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:37,919
Speaker 2: right on, He's right on his ass, like right on

468
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:38,560
Speaker 2: Rice and.

469
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,600
Speaker 1: Not to mention yesterday or yesterday. Is it yesterday night?

470
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 1: Well when you guys, yes Saturday or whatever. Yeah, nine

471
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 1: straight k's. I was at a friend's house. We were

472
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,120
Speaker 1: playing some like old Baseball Card Day Card Game, MLB.

473
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:51,960
Speaker 2: Show Showdown, Showdown.

474
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 1: It was electric, by the way, but we were in

475
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 1: the middle of our tournament, deep into it. It was

476
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 1: the playoff run and we stopped what we were doing.

477
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,439
Speaker 1: Jake was pitching, we watched and then that was it.

478
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,679
Speaker 1: We're like, okay, we're just gonna finish this after the

479
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:06,720
Speaker 1: Mets game because Jake de Gram's on the mound. He

480
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 1: might be breaking history here because he had nine straight

481
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 1: k's at the time. He's he literally is like you said,

482
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 1: you stop what you're doing. You turn on the TV

483
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 1: and you watch Jacob de Grom, because we are seeing

484
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 1: one of the greatest stretches in a pitchers pitching history

485
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 1: right now over whatever these three four year span is

486
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 1: gonna be that we're currently in. You've mentioned in a

487
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:27,160
Speaker 1: previous episode Ko Faxie, and I'm here more people saying

488
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:28,960
Speaker 1: it fax type.

489
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 2: This is this is this is Cofaxie and stuff. And

490
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:35,399
Speaker 2: you people never sniffed that sever record. You go seasons

491
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,679
Speaker 2: without even hearing that mention. Even when they said that

492
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:39,280
Speaker 2: was the record, I didn't even know it was Tom sever.

493
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:40,919
Speaker 2: My dad was like, oh, I know that. What kind

494
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 2: of Mets fan are you? But I didn't know.

495
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:45,679
Speaker 1: And what's funny is I think Da Grum also got

496
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:48,520
Speaker 1: nine last year too. Oh really, this is a regular

497
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 1: occurrence for him. Now He's like, yeah, once a year,

498
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:52,880
Speaker 1: I'll strike out nine guys in a row three innings.

499
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 1: You just don't get to do anything.

500
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:57,640
Speaker 2: It's crazy. The funniest thing about Severs when he strike

501
00:19:57,680 --> 00:19:59,680
Speaker 2: out ten guys in a row is that he's track

502
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 2: out the guy started and ended like streking out the

503
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:04,919
Speaker 2: same guy like twice in a row like that as

504
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:06,600
Speaker 2: you struck everyone else out, Like you guys just aren't

505
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 2: seeing it. You guys aren't seeing shit, No.

506
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 1: Not at all. That's just like, that's how good Jake

507
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 1: dram is. We're putting him in the same conversation with

508
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,880
Speaker 1: Tom Seaver, and it's like, just not crazy because Tom

509
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:17,719
Speaker 1: Severs is one of the best pictures of all time

510
00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:20,159
Speaker 1: in Major League Baseball history, really, and Dea Gram is

511
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:22,359
Speaker 1: doing stuff that compares to it, And let's be honest,

512
00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:23,800
Speaker 1: is facing better competition.

513
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,200
Speaker 2: It's just like way better competition. It's more technology, there's

514
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:28,879
Speaker 2: more knowledge, there's more information, there's a just just better hit.

515
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:31,040
Speaker 2: There's just literally better equipment. The bats. I couldn't even

516
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 2: imagine hitting with a bat from like nineteen seventy two.

517
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,200
Speaker 1: All I can think about is like bad and gloves

518
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,640
Speaker 1: were created because guys were getting splinters from the bats

519
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:41,200
Speaker 1: that they were. It was like, just like, there's that's

520
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,560
Speaker 1: a strong branch up there, let's saw it off a

521
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 1: little bit, nice bat. Like the Gram is so so good, It's.

522
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 2: So good, so good, and just against switch gears here

523
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 2: continue to talk about de Gram. The irony is that

524
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:55,720
Speaker 2: we were all hyped up for that record and that inning,

525
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:58,760
Speaker 2: the wheels kind of came off relatively to Jacob the Graam.

526
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:00,440
Speaker 2: The wheels coming off is like a few a few

527
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:04,320
Speaker 2: under and run scoring. But I had never seen de

528
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 2: Gram show the type of like emotion that he showed

529
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:11,040
Speaker 2: that inning. He screened when that when the sackfly went

530
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:12,520
Speaker 2: and can Ford they made the bad throw of the play,

531
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:14,960
Speaker 2: de Gram screamed into his glove. He snapped at the

532
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,920
Speaker 2: ball and he like he sunk his shoulders. Ronnie was

533
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:19,120
Speaker 2: a little bit disappointed in change.

534
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I am okay with it because let's be honest,

535
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,320
Speaker 1: as I think we said it last time too. The

536
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,639
Speaker 1: most impressive stat by Jacob de Gram is that he

537
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:28,200
Speaker 1: has murdered zero of his team.

538
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, shadow shadow Meek Phil, Yes.

539
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,840
Speaker 1: Shot out Meek Phil. Great follow on Twitter. So if

540
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:35,719
Speaker 1: you if this is the first time he ever, you know,

541
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 1: showed up a teamate or anything like that, I mean, God,

542
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,480
Speaker 1: bless him, clap it up for him. He deserves the

543
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,800
Speaker 1: Nobel Peace Prize because anybody else, I think in Major

544
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:48,160
Speaker 1: League Baseball would have fought a teammate at this point. So, yes,

545
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,639
Speaker 1: conforda made a shit throw and McNeil made an error

546
00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:52,720
Speaker 1: earlier in the inning, I'm okay with it. If there's

547
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,879
Speaker 1: anybody that's allowed to make a stink about anything in

548
00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,359
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball, it is one thousand percent of Jacob

549
00:21:58,359 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 1: de Gram and the lack of support he gets from

550
00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 1: his teammates.

551
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 2: Definitely. But that situation kind of got him into trouble

552
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:08,119
Speaker 2: that ending because the next batther Raymel Tapia put one

553
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:08,679
Speaker 2: in the seats.

554
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you, Electric Factory gets this exciting player

555
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:13,280
Speaker 1: in baseball, shut the fuck up.

556
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 2: But like that sucked, Like that was such a gut

557
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,800
Speaker 2: punch in the moment, I couldn't even believe that I

558
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:23,240
Speaker 2: was watching. And it was similar to the Jazz at bat,

559
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:25,199
Speaker 2: where it wasn't even necessarily a bad pitch, but he

560
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:28,119
Speaker 2: just like found the barrel and it just carried. I

561
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:29,160
Speaker 2: was sitting in disbelief.

562
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 1: I was, Yeah, I was out of all the guys

563
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,439
Speaker 1: in the lineup, Reynal Tapia, I hit a home run

564
00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:37,080
Speaker 1: who had one home run last year, and I think

565
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:39,480
Speaker 1: even the year before they had like four. This is

566
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 1: not a guy who hits home runs. He has a

567
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 1: slap hitter, like.

568
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 2: We've mentioned, he is not big contact guy.

569
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, not there to do anything but literally slap it

570
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:47,560
Speaker 1: to the left side and hope he runs it out

571
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,200
Speaker 1: faster than the ball gets there. And for him to

572
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:52,399
Speaker 1: hit pretty hit pretty well too.

573
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:54,720
Speaker 2: Like it wasn't a cheap he's he's a fine he's

574
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:57,120
Speaker 2: a fine baseball player. It was definitely wasn't a cheapo.

575
00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:58,840
Speaker 2: But again, you just felt like that at bat to

576
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 2: ground wasn't really locked in like he usually is. He's

577
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 2: very good at understanding things he's doing wrong or things

578
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:08,439
Speaker 2: that aren't necessarily right, and correcting them like within that

579
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:10,639
Speaker 2: bat or within that ending, Ronnie. Ronnie actually mentioned that

580
00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:12,479
Speaker 2: during the game. He said, most guys, when they struggle,

581
00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:14,240
Speaker 2: it takes on a starter two to figure out why.

582
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 2: It takes a gram a batter or two. That's what

583
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:19,000
Speaker 2: sets him apart. That's why he's so great the mental aspect.

584
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,399
Speaker 2: He's so aware of everything that's going on in the field.

585
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:23,560
Speaker 2: But for that bat, he just lost his focus, it

586
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:25,879
Speaker 2: seemed like. And for a while I thought that was

587
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:29,320
Speaker 2: really gonna kill the Mets until our own electric factory

588
00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:32,520
Speaker 2: came up. The next ending, Jonathan Vr, Captain Clutch and

589
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:37,040
Speaker 2: just I guess found that corner and al Moore just

590
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:38,760
Speaker 2: scooed all the way around the base. Is great use

591
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,159
Speaker 2: of a pinch runner two by the Mets. The second

592
00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 2: that was McAndrew got the base hit right, I was screaming,

593
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 2: pitch runner, pitch runner. Do it.

594
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:48,399
Speaker 1: Mets fans the other day ye that I was with

595
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,240
Speaker 1: and we were like, you have to run for him,

596
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 1: it better be. I thought it was gonna be VR, honestly,

597
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 1: and your may to pinch hit because I just thought

598
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:56,400
Speaker 1: VR is probably the fastest guy in the bench right now.

599
00:23:57,040 --> 00:24:00,399
Speaker 1: But whatever he did it worked. Way to go, Louise Rojas.

600
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:01,560
Speaker 1: I'm clapping this one up for you.

601
00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:03,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I got my bad tweet the day coming

602
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,880
Speaker 2: out from that. H McCann to vr bet because when

603
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:08,920
Speaker 2: this bottom of the seventh started, some girl on mess

604
00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 2: Twitter I only remember who it was, but she has

605
00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:12,800
Speaker 2: some polowises. She was like, I can't believe it. I

606
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 2: hate Rojas. What is he doing not bringing to grim

607
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:16,640
Speaker 2: out for the last ending of this game? Like how

608
00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:18,879
Speaker 2: good he's been the team coming back for him? And

609
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:20,800
Speaker 2: she just got the shit ratio out of her his

610
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 2: lead to tweet in like ten minutes.

611
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 1: She should because this feels like a like little Boy

612
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,679
Speaker 1: Who Cried Wolf scenario now with Mets fans, where it's

613
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 1: anytime Jacob de Griham comes out of the game is

614
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 1: a steak now apparently.

615
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:33,639
Speaker 2: Which can you can never take this guy.

616
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:35,920
Speaker 1: He's the best picture that I've seen in my lifetime.

617
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:37,640
Speaker 1: I'm sure he's gonna be the best picture that most

618
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:39,679
Speaker 1: Mets fans have seen their lifetime that are listening to

619
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:41,719
Speaker 1: this podcast. I don't imagine that there's many that are

620
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:43,760
Speaker 1: our parents age that we're able to see Tom sever

621
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,560
Speaker 1: pitch that are listening to this if you are, thanks,

622
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,200
Speaker 1: but we gotta like we got pump the brakes a

623
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,760
Speaker 1: little bit here. Jacob de Grim hasn't had an issue

624
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 1: with being pulled yet by the way this year, and

625
00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:55,639
Speaker 1: he is definitely a guy who is not going to

626
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:56,359
Speaker 1: just give the ball up.

627
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:58,399
Speaker 2: He also, if de Graham did have an issue, you

628
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,960
Speaker 2: would never know about it, because that guy it's a stoke.

629
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 2: Just again to put de Gram's dominance in perspective so

630
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:06,160
Speaker 2: far this season and going back to the last season

631
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 2: as well, Nick Pollock had a great tweet today. Garret

632
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:11,160
Speaker 2: Cole in twenty nineteen had a sixteen point eight swing

633
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 2: strike grade. Swing strike grade takes every single pitch you throw,

634
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 2: and the percentage of swing strikes different from wiff rate,

635
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,800
Speaker 2: which shows the whiffs on swings. So Garrett Cole sixteen

636
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:21,879
Speaker 2: point eight percent swing strike grade twenty nineteen. That was

637
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:25,160
Speaker 2: the highest sincetesatistic was recorded in two thousand. Last year,

638
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 2: de Gram was twenty one point five percent, so like

639
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:30,400
Speaker 2: five percent higher, and this year so far is twenty

640
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 2: three point two percent, so almost almost one out of

641
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 2: every four pitches that Jacob de Groom throws is being

642
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:41,159
Speaker 2: swung through. That's literally something we've never seen before or

643
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 2: just not recorded.

644
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 1: That's that's a silly statistic, unbelievable. When you said sixteen

645
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,200
Speaker 1: point eight for col like, that's really hot.

646
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 2: Oh literally the highest, the highest on record, and de

647
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 2: Grom makes shitting.

648
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:55,800
Speaker 1: On it is like, here's what the best pitcher in

649
00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:58,720
Speaker 1: baseball looks like. Because he's just that debate has to

650
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 1: be over now, Like officially it's dead. If anybody says

651
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:05,120
Speaker 1: anybody else you're You're an idiot, you're wrong, you're moron.

652
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 2: You just have to watch the games.

653
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, just watch baseball, look at numbers, understand what you're seeing.

654
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 1: And you're seeing possibly one of the greatest pitchers of

655
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:15,080
Speaker 1: all time right now on the mountain. And then the

656
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,960
Speaker 1: rest of that game, some decent stuff happened. The Mets

657
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,679
Speaker 1: woke up the bats a little late. Brendan Nemo is

658
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:22,879
Speaker 1: still so good, and I put in the notes. Is

659
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:24,400
Speaker 1: it crazy to say he's the best enter on this.

660
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:27,600
Speaker 2: Team this second? Right now? I wouldn't say it's crazy.

661
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,360
Speaker 2: I think he is. If you said pick one guy

662
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:32,159
Speaker 2: to come up, you need, you need to keep this

663
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,639
Speaker 2: game alive. I'm picking Brandon Emo. One hundred percent of

664
00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:35,000
Speaker 2: the time.

665
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 1: Was hitting like four fifty is on base percentage is

666
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:38,040
Speaker 1: still above five hundred.

667
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's literally ignorant. He's the only guy in this

668
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 2: team who's actually hitting the ball right now decently. Besides

669
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:44,680
Speaker 2: Pete again to that, he's been putting the ball and

670
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:48,200
Speaker 2: play hard. But he's the only one who's really really

671
00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:51,640
Speaker 2: locked in. It's crazy this team is continuing to win

672
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:53,960
Speaker 2: games when he's the only guy locked in. The Mets

673
00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 2: this season have six home runs as a team, six

674
00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,119
Speaker 2: home runs. A team that last year was near the

675
00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:01,560
Speaker 2: top of the league and home runs has six and

676
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:05,399
Speaker 2: they have seven wins. Who who in modern baseball has

677
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,679
Speaker 2: more wins than home runs The Dodgers have like twenty

678
00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,479
Speaker 2: five or like twenty eight or some shit. Wilson Ronos

679
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 2: has six alone.

680
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, wils the Mets, and he hit any this week.

681
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:15,879
Speaker 2: He had six last week.

682
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:18,320
Speaker 1: Yeah. The power department's been really bad. I just feel

683
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,920
Speaker 1: the extra base hit department in general has been particularly strong.

684
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:24,200
Speaker 2: Yeah. All the departments that include bats bad. No good departments.

685
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:26,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, besides the wins, which we're winning games.

686
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, pitching, starting pitching, man starting pitching, starting pitching, starting pitching,

687
00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:32,200
Speaker 2: and then that I guess can bring us into Game

688
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 2: two last night, when the starting pitching for the first

689
00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 2: time besides that one Peterson start just wasn't that good.

690
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 2: But it's Joey Lukazy who just isn't that good. So what,

691
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:42,200
Speaker 2: I don't know, what are you doing here?

692
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,920
Speaker 1: Yeah? I like we talked about it a little bit.

693
00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:46,639
Speaker 1: It felt like a punk game for the Mets, like

694
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 1: huge pumpkins. Whatever happens happens. You can't this isn't gonna

695
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:51,960
Speaker 1: be a game that we're going balls to the wall

696
00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,600
Speaker 1: trying to scrap out a win. If we win, we win.

697
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:56,679
Speaker 1: If we lose, we lose. And as shitty of an

698
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 1: attitude as that is, if there was ever a game

699
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:01,400
Speaker 1: to have that kind of attitude, it was Game two

700
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 1: of the double header where it was what like fifteen

701
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:03,719
Speaker 1: degrees at night.

702
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was in the twenties. It was Lukezi versus

703
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,280
Speaker 2: the Rockies Ace Marquez. But I kind of thought that

704
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:11,359
Speaker 2: the Mets would be like high after Game one, like

705
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:12,879
Speaker 2: winning in the fashion they did. That was one of

706
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 2: the more emotional regular season Mets victories that I can

707
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 2: recall in the last couple of seasons. Besides that crazy

708
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:22,399
Speaker 2: National Series from two years back. This was like the

709
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,359
Speaker 2: boys got up for that game. There was a real,

710
00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:27,160
Speaker 2: like palpable feeling that they had to win this game

711
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:28,880
Speaker 2: for the ground. They didn't want to let him down,

712
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 2: Like they stepped up as a team together, and like

713
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:35,000
Speaker 2: we said McCann, vr al Mora and then Lindor, these

714
00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 2: are the guys stepping up, like those are guys from

715
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 2: every single tier of this roster. And then they just

716
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 2: came out completely flat. I couldn't I can't understand the

717
00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:48,719
Speaker 2: like the concept of it being so cold and putting

718
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 2: so many reserves in for that game, who literally just

719
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:54,720
Speaker 2: sat around for three hours, Like the temperature would have

720
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 2: made me want to keep my players who were literally

721
00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:00,320
Speaker 2: warm in the game, and the exact opposite happened.

722
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,680
Speaker 1: The only thing I could possibly think about is maybe

723
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:06,840
Speaker 1: there's something with like downtime, like getting your getting like

724
00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 1: being up and then getting down and then coming out

725
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 1: to the cold, Like could they possibly be like we're

726
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:12,560
Speaker 1: gonna give a lot of our guys a break because

727
00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 1: like listen, maybe that one of them's got like a

728
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 1: sore hamstring. You don't know about some of the guys

729
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,600
Speaker 1: are just feeling a little beat up. Long long series

730
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,760
Speaker 1: or whatever. It's gonna be. That would be my only

731
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:24,120
Speaker 1: reasoning the lineup was by far like thes we threw

732
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:28,240
Speaker 1: out all year. Lukezy on the mound, he pitched okay,

733
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:29,880
Speaker 1: he was okay.

734
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,720
Speaker 2: That first inning, I think there was the Rockies knocked

735
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 2: a couple balls, but it was also a little bit

736
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:37,200
Speaker 2: of bad luck, you know, and then he settled in

737
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:39,880
Speaker 2: he was fine, and then it just I don't know.

738
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:41,640
Speaker 2: They seems like the Mets went out with that game

739
00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:43,440
Speaker 2: expecting not much.

740
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 1: Also like not really fair to Luke Hazy that like

741
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:48,560
Speaker 1: his first start as a Met. He goes up against

742
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:52,080
Speaker 1: the Colorado Rockies in Colorado in fifteen twenty degree weather,

743
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 1: against the team that he's faced all his career, and

744
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,480
Speaker 1: it has all the footage and film on him, and

745
00:29:57,480 --> 00:29:59,320
Speaker 1: they've seen him past time again.

746
00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:01,120
Speaker 2: They've crushed it. He has pretty he had pretty bad

747
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,880
Speaker 2: stats going into that start in Chorus, but who doesn't

748
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 2: like Coreys is just it's impossible to pitch there. That's

749
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 2: why again I would have made absolutely certain my a

750
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:13,440
Speaker 2: offense was in the lineup that day, especially against Marcus

751
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 2: Marquez is the only pitcher on the entire Rockies roster

752
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,960
Speaker 2: who should really fear in any degree, maybe barred Bart

753
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:21,800
Speaker 2: through some heat he looked at today, but I don't know,

754
00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 2: I didn't. I didn't like that at all.

755
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 1: And like he gave up what three and two innings

756
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:27,000
Speaker 1: I think, which like in course, I think three three,

757
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:29,800
Speaker 1: three innings, So yeah, three runs shouldn't be anything cores

758
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:32,600
Speaker 1: that you can't come back from. It's not an insurmountable lead.

759
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,240
Speaker 1: And then Gaselman came in first appearance of the year,

760
00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:38,040
Speaker 1: so hey, welcome to the team, Robert.

761
00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:39,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, welcome back. Happy to have you.

762
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 1: Uh. That was it. That's all there is to talk

763
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:44,360
Speaker 1: about him, because he is just.

764
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:49,880
Speaker 2: Was throwing some some some meat balls that the Rockies

765
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:51,280
Speaker 2: just weren't able to get around on.

766
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 1: And like I can't even blame him because it's been

767
00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:57,120
Speaker 1: twenty something days since he's made no oh no.

768
00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, I mean I just figured that Gaselman and

769
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:03,320
Speaker 2: the same thing goes for Barnes and maybe the same

770
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,080
Speaker 2: thing goes for Hildenberger to a different degree.

771
00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 1: But these are the.

772
00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 2: Guys you bring in when you're losing by a lot

773
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 2: or you're winning by a lot. They just I don't know,

774
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 2: in such a tight game in place like chorus Fields,

775
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:18,000
Speaker 2: using Barnes in that that was the fifth inning, and

776
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 2: that fifth inning just felt wrong. I just would especially

777
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 2: with all the off days coming up in the layoff beforehand,

778
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 2: I really would have looked to Castro or May to

779
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:28,960
Speaker 2: try and keep that game as a one run deficit. Yeah.

780
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 1: I wonder if it's just it's so weird if you

781
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:35,480
Speaker 1: think about him, that's really haven't had a blowout or

782
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,479
Speaker 1: a I mean, I guess the Phillies game where Barnes

783
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:39,560
Speaker 1: came in again, Yeah.

784
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 2: The Peterson game, but again he made that even Barnes

785
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:44,040
Speaker 2: came in that game, it was attainable. I think it

786
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:46,480
Speaker 2: was three or four run deficit at the time, and

787
00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 2: he gave up a moonshot.

788
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:50,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was like at some point he does have

789
00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 1: to pitch. These guys do have to throw.

790
00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:55,360
Speaker 2: No, for sure, But with the amount of off days

791
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:58,000
Speaker 2: the mess have had, workloads are not concerned yet. I

792
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:00,720
Speaker 2: get maybe you want to keep innings off of Castro

793
00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 2: and May given their usage relative to the game's play.

794
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:06,640
Speaker 2: But relative to the days of the season, it hasn't

795
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:07,120
Speaker 2: been much.

796
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:08,320
Speaker 1: No, it hasn't been much.

797
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:10,200
Speaker 2: No, And I would have really tried to keep by

798
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:11,880
Speaker 2: fuzzing the gas pell of that game. I just I

799
00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:13,960
Speaker 2: disagree with that call, and not even that Barnes looked

800
00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 2: that bad. There wasn't that many balls in play, but

801
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 2: there were just a couple of ground balls I found

802
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:20,480
Speaker 2: holes and the play here was the Mets shifted against

803
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:22,800
Speaker 2: Story and a ball went right to second base. I

804
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:24,640
Speaker 2: would have been double to play inning ender and then

805
00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:27,440
Speaker 2: two bad as later hit the ball out. Yeah, I mean,

806
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:29,960
Speaker 2: can we talk about how much looks like Nolan Arnado?

807
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 1: Well, you know it's his cousin, right, I know, I

808
00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:32,680
Speaker 1: had no idea.

809
00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:34,320
Speaker 2: That was his cousin. Gary pointed out Game one. I

810
00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 2: was like, what the fuck?

811
00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:37,760
Speaker 1: You know? He's he's budget Nolan Aernaudo in that he's

812
00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:39,800
Speaker 1: just simply not nearly as good as a player, but

813
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:40,960
Speaker 1: he looks exactly like him.

814
00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:42,840
Speaker 2: I think that Jeff Bridge may have just been trying

815
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 2: to fool the Rockies fans who weren't very attentive this offseason.

816
00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:47,520
Speaker 2: But oh look, wow, may have lost some weight. Did

817
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:49,760
Speaker 2: he also lose some height? He lost number?

818
00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 1: Slapping number twenty on him right, number twenty and put

819
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:53,840
Speaker 1: Aeronauta on the back of the jersey.

820
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 2: And no, I'm sure he just checked out the jersey

821
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:56,440
Speaker 2: back there.

822
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, what number is the I think he's twenty. Act

823
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:04,160
Speaker 1: I still don't, but yeah, I mean Fuentes hit that ball.

824
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 1: I just like, here's the thing with Jacob Barnes and

825
00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 1: you you said it, like, these are the guys that

826
00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,200
Speaker 1: got to come in and just games that are blowouts

827
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:12,640
Speaker 1: either way. They can't pitch in close scenarios.

828
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,040
Speaker 2: We've talked we've talked about the A ballpen this year,

829
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:16,760
Speaker 2: and we've talked about the B bullpen this year being

830
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:19,880
Speaker 2: like Castro may than familiar. These guys are the C bullpen.

831
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 1: Yes, although I liked what Hildenberger had.

832
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:25,360
Speaker 2: Too, I was actually about to say that he looked

833
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:27,840
Speaker 2: pretty decent, Like I love having guys with different arm

834
00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 2: angles in the ballpen. Just keeps it as honest.

835
00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 1: I think like on the pecking order, he's got to

836
00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 1: go ahead of Barnes.

837
00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:36,840
Speaker 2: And just based off that, not even a question of that.

838
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:41,520
Speaker 1: Because like while he doesn't have particularly like anything special

839
00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:44,400
Speaker 1: because of his arm angle and because of just being

840
00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:46,720
Speaker 1: so herky jerky, and he really is so different than

841
00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,320
Speaker 1: any pitcher that the Mets have, Like he's just junk junk,

842
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 1: junk junk junkoop is kind of a junker. But he's lefty,

843
00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 1: so you're a lefty, but he's he's just so different.

844
00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:00,000
Speaker 1: I really like the idea of using him and maybe

845
00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 1: a game that's like a four run lead in the

846
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:04,440
Speaker 1: fifth inning, sixth inning something early.

847
00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:07,760
Speaker 2: I would have even preferred him to come out before Barnes,

848
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:11,200
Speaker 2: like you just said, especially like he Hiltenberger is cool

849
00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,720
Speaker 2: because he has three pitches he uses kind of equally,

850
00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:16,080
Speaker 2: where it's like change up, fastball, slide there, so that

851
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:18,279
Speaker 2: will keep Hithers more on it, especially you're thinking about

852
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 2: three pitches equal likelily As being used with the sidebarm action.

853
00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:23,560
Speaker 2: And he's a guy that there's not that much film

854
00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:26,719
Speaker 2: on him. Really. He's more interesting than Barnes in my

855
00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:28,759
Speaker 2: opinion for sure. But the Mets seems like Barnes. They

856
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:30,560
Speaker 2: jumped on him in the off season for reasons I

857
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:31,440
Speaker 2: still cannot figure out.

858
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, it doesn't make any sense to me. Like he

859
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:35,600
Speaker 1: just his stuff is he sits like ninety three, Like

860
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:38,040
Speaker 1: that's not particularly like you look at the size of

861
00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:40,120
Speaker 1: this guy. He's got muscles on top of his muscles,

862
00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:41,799
Speaker 1: and you think he's gonna come out throw ninety eight.

863
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:45,280
Speaker 1: He just throws like mid nineties and his like slider

864
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:46,239
Speaker 1: or whatever that pitch is.

865
00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:49,239
Speaker 2: Yes, it has some bite, but just not enough.

866
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:51,239
Speaker 1: And like, I don't even know is he like is

867
00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,239
Speaker 1: he a spin rate guy? And it's just like I

868
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:55,920
Speaker 1: don't understand the appeal of him, especially when we do

869
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,919
Speaker 1: have a guy like McWilliams and waiting in the wing

870
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:00,880
Speaker 1: that I would just much rather to get these ends.

871
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:03,160
Speaker 2: It the same with Viscuayino, who is throwing upper nineties

872
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:06,320
Speaker 2: in the spring, a guy who was the Braid's closer

873
00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:07,200
Speaker 2: not very long ago.

874
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 1: The only thing I could see with not bringing those

875
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:11,479
Speaker 1: guys up is we've seen how little Barnes has been used.

876
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:13,759
Speaker 1: Maybe they want these guys throwing every day. Maybe they

877
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,279
Speaker 1: want them, especially a guy like Viscuayano, who's like more

878
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:19,160
Speaker 1: so rehabbing right now because he is coming off of

879
00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:22,120
Speaker 1: like some major surgeries. Maybe they want those guys throwing.

880
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:24,319
Speaker 1: But you know, think about what we're talking about too.

881
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:26,359
Speaker 1: We're talking about the seed team bullpen for the Mets

882
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:28,480
Speaker 1: right now in depth, which at the end of the day,

883
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 1: hopefully we don't have to talk about them too much.

884
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:32,560
Speaker 1: Hopefully this is one of the few things that we

885
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:34,640
Speaker 1: talk about them, because if we're talking about Jacob Barnes

886
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:36,960
Speaker 1: getting significant innings at any point in the season. I

887
00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:39,560
Speaker 1: have a feeling we're gonna be in trouble and right now.

888
00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,279
Speaker 2: I will say about Barnes though last year he did

889
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:44,480
Speaker 2: have a kate rate over thirty percent, Whereas that's kind

890
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:45,840
Speaker 2: of that golden line you want to see out of

891
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:48,879
Speaker 2: a reliever who could be good and the color. This year,

892
00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:50,719
Speaker 2: as bad as his fastball has been, his fastball has

893
00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 2: been viscerated. Batters have a six hundred batting average against

894
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:56,000
Speaker 2: Jacob Barnes fastball and very limited, very limited samples only

895
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:57,759
Speaker 2: throw in eighteen, so that doesn't really mean anything. It's

896
00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:00,880
Speaker 2: mostly noise. But he's getting thirty six percent with on

897
00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:04,319
Speaker 2: the cover. There's something there, I guess. But again, I

898
00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,399
Speaker 2: just there's no reason that Castro may couldn't be using

899
00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:08,880
Speaker 2: that game. With an off day to day before and

900
00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:11,040
Speaker 2: off day on Monday. They were willing to use Edwin

901
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,239
Speaker 2: Diaz two days in a row. I can't understand why

902
00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:14,719
Speaker 2: they wouldn't use one of those two to keep that

903
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,040
Speaker 2: game at one run, especially against Yeah, they were getting

904
00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:19,239
Speaker 2: to Marquetes, they just like started to figure them out

905
00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:19,680
Speaker 2: a little bit.

906
00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:22,319
Speaker 1: I think it's simply just they wanted to get these

907
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:24,239
Speaker 1: guys in. It had been ten days for Barnes, it

908
00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:26,839
Speaker 1: had been twenty plus days for Gesomon, and Hildenberg made

909
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:30,239
Speaker 1: his appearance, even though we liked his appearance. I just

910
00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:32,680
Speaker 1: I simply think that rojas Will wanted to get these

911
00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:35,120
Speaker 1: guys from innings because they just simply haven't been able

912
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:37,080
Speaker 1: to throw. And hey, you never know when you're gonna

913
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:39,040
Speaker 1: need to get these guys up. And I would rather

914
00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:41,160
Speaker 1: again have them get sheld in this game and have

915
00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:43,880
Speaker 1: their ten day break than okay, well it's a ten

916
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:46,279
Speaker 1: day break. The Mets are up five and Barnes gives

917
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:47,359
Speaker 1: up five and ounce tig game.

918
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:49,440
Speaker 2: Yeah you know, yeah, no if I failure there. But

919
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:51,719
Speaker 2: I wanted to sweep. I really wanted to sweep. I

920
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:53,719
Speaker 2: might be being greedy, but I.

921
00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 1: Mean we talked about it like a sweep would be

922
00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:57,040
Speaker 1: huge here, looking like at the end of the year

923
00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 1: for the standings, because you get three against the Rockies,

924
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 1: who are going to to be a bottom feeder in

925
00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:03,520
Speaker 1: this division. If you can get three there, that basically

926
00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:05,920
Speaker 1: puts pressure on every other team in the National leagueest

927
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:07,759
Speaker 1: you now have to sweep the Rockies in order to

928
00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:10,120
Speaker 1: to say, even with the Mets when you face them,

929
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:11,719
Speaker 1: you have to you have to sweep them to stay

930
00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 1: even now a game or two year there, it changes

931
00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:16,880
Speaker 1: some things.

932
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:19,399
Speaker 2: It does. Yeah, especially again I'm bringing up again because

933
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:21,719
Speaker 2: it's still vexes me. The mess have three off days

934
00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:24,839
Speaker 2: in the next two weeks. They haven't. They've played less

935
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,359
Speaker 2: games than every team baseball this season. These guys can work.

936
00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:28,279
Speaker 2: You gotta let them work.

937
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:30,000
Speaker 1: I'm a peacocky. You gotta let me fly, you know,

938
00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:32,600
Speaker 1: gotta let the boys fly. But and then after the lead,

939
00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:34,399
Speaker 1: we saw the Mets kind of just I don't want

940
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:37,080
Speaker 1: to even say they didn't care, but they abolutely completely

941
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,279
Speaker 1: rolled over. Yeah, the Mets were like, all right, it's cold,

942
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:39,920
Speaker 1: let's get over with.

943
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:41,960
Speaker 2: Mark has just padded their belly. And again they were

944
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:45,279
Speaker 2: probably fucking cold. It got cold there. You can see

945
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,520
Speaker 2: Pete like blowing into his hand at first base floor.

946
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:49,960
Speaker 2: The boy cold blooded, you wrote in the notes, Mets

947
00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:52,080
Speaker 2: simply didn't want to be there. I felt that it

948
00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:52,680
Speaker 2: was seemed true.

949
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:55,000
Speaker 1: I can't blame them. I mean, having played in fifteen

950
00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:57,920
Speaker 1: degree weather myself as a youngin and not in Colorado

951
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:01,400
Speaker 1: where it's also a mile high pretty miserable, and I

952
00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:04,240
Speaker 1: wasn't facing anybody throwing ninety five miles an hour with movement.

953
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:07,160
Speaker 1: I can't imagine like taking one off the hands here

954
00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 1: that would keep suck.

955
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:10,680
Speaker 2: There was a clip yesterday in the six or seventh inning.

956
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:12,480
Speaker 2: I don't remember who was hitting, but it was a lefty.

957
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:14,000
Speaker 2: So they were like doing where they zoom in on

958
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:16,200
Speaker 2: the left hand handed battle box and right handed sides,

959
00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:18,560
Speaker 2: so you can see the fans sitting above the dugout,

960
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,520
Speaker 2: and there was a clear shot of just a middle

961
00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:23,319
Speaker 2: aged woman yawning, and that was that was all of

962
00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:25,000
Speaker 2: us last night in the sixth and seventh inning. So

963
00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:26,359
Speaker 2: I was like, let's just end this game.

964
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:31,040
Speaker 1: I guess what I mean. Overall from the series, two wins, good,

965
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:32,440
Speaker 1: we won the series. You go two and one in

966
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:34,400
Speaker 1: every series you play, you're a playoff team, so that's why.

967
00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:38,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, you won. Of the best teams football time. You

968
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:40,480
Speaker 2: go two and one every series, you win the season

969
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:42,759
Speaker 2: with a six sixty six winning percentage, you are an

970
00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:44,480
Speaker 2: all time great baseball.

971
00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:46,400
Speaker 1: PA like fifty four or something like that.

972
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,200
Speaker 2: I think, yeah, that's pretty Yeahwight fifty four pushing that

973
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:52,080
Speaker 2: was actually crazy mental math. You'd be pushing the two

974
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:54,719
Speaker 2: thousand and one Mariners with nine two thousand Mariners for

975
00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:57,040
Speaker 2: one of the best regular season records ever. But again,

976
00:38:57,320 --> 00:39:00,040
Speaker 2: while we're talking about the cold, great time transition to

977
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,160
Speaker 2: the Met's next three games, which will also be played

978
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:04,680
Speaker 2: in the Colts. I hope everyone liked it because we've

979
00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:05,440
Speaker 2: got three more coming.

980
00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:09,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, Chicago Cubs, which they're playing right now. And the

981
00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:11,799
Speaker 1: Cubs are just bad. The Cubs are another really bad

982
00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 1: team that we help have to get up on. Cubs

983
00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 1: pitching is atrocious and the offense is even worse. Somehow,

984
00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:20,640
Speaker 1: the Cubs season averages look better after they put up

985
00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:23,160
Speaker 1: with like fourteen runs on Saturday con trailer. Well, the

986
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:25,840
Speaker 1: Braves bullpen, which apparently isn't a big problem according to

987
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:26,560
Speaker 1: Braves fans.

988
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:28,080
Speaker 2: But not a big problem with all they only have.

989
00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:30,279
Speaker 2: They only have like basically one good reliever, but it's

990
00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:32,319
Speaker 2: not a big deal. And now and now they're losing

991
00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:33,359
Speaker 2: starters left and right now.

992
00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:38,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, so the Cubs are not again similar situation to

993
00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:39,719
Speaker 1: the Rockies. They have some players you have to keep

994
00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:41,840
Speaker 1: an eye out for. For sure, they have good players

995
00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 1: on that roster. Ian App's really good. I like him

996
00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:46,000
Speaker 1: a lot Wilson traist is starting to get hot a

997
00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:47,440
Speaker 1: little bit. When he gets hot, he's scary.

998
00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:50,480
Speaker 2: Ian Happ has been bad this season. His average is

999
00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:52,520
Speaker 2: like his his average is like under one fifty right now.

1000
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:54,480
Speaker 2: His our base is still hovering right three hundred, which

1001
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:55,920
Speaker 2: is he takes a ton of walks out to him,

1002
00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:57,120
Speaker 2: but he has not put the bat on the ball.

1003
00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:59,440
Speaker 2: And as the rest of the Cubs, this team, I'm

1004
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:01,640
Speaker 2: pretty sure going into today they had the lower going

1005
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:03,840
Speaker 2: into yesterday, had the lowest batting average in baseball.

1006
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:05,600
Speaker 1: Well, I know, for a while, Jacob de Gram was

1007
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:07,480
Speaker 1: hitting better than the entire Chicago Cubs team.

1008
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:09,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, there was a time about a week ago where

1009
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:12,719
Speaker 2: every pitcher in baseball cumulatively was hitting better than the

1010
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:15,319
Speaker 2: Chicago Cubs scene. Which is disastrous.

1011
00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:17,439
Speaker 1: So rough, But like, they still have Rizzo, they still

1012
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:18,800
Speaker 1: have Buyers, they still have Bryant.

1013
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:20,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, they have dudes.

1014
00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:23,160
Speaker 1: There's Peterson stinks, but like Jack person also can hit

1015
00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:26,719
Speaker 1: a home run any given pitch. Yeah, powers insane. Uh,

1016
00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:30,080
Speaker 1: there's a Cubs Like They're not the same Cubs team

1017
00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:31,799
Speaker 1: that you feared a couple of years ago. Definitely not.

1018
00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:35,839
Speaker 1: The bullpen's not particularly strong. The starting pitching is abysmal,

1019
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:38,200
Speaker 1: and we are missing Hendricks, which is fantastic.

1020
00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:41,600
Speaker 2: Even though Hendricks just got annihilated on Sunday at baseball.

1021
00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:43,880
Speaker 2: He gave up more home runs in the first inning

1022
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:46,840
Speaker 2: tonight than he's given up in any individual start in

1023
00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:49,360
Speaker 2: his career. The Cubs batting average going into today is

1024
00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:51,879
Speaker 2: a buckety four. They have a lower batting average than

1025
00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:54,279
Speaker 2: the Cleveland Indians, who have been no hit.

1026
00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:55,960
Speaker 1: Again, this is a series like you just got you

1027
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:57,799
Speaker 1: gotta come out and you gotta pull verize them. So

1028
00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:01,040
Speaker 1: it's Arietta pitching for the Cubs against US Tuesday. That

1029
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:04,560
Speaker 1: we got Davies on Wednesday and Trevor Williams on Thursday.

1030
00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:07,320
Speaker 1: And shockingly for you Mets fans, you've probably recognized a

1031
00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:09,400
Speaker 1: couple of those names. None of them are, you know,

1032
00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:13,960
Speaker 1: world beaters or anything like that. They are be bep pitchers.

1033
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,040
Speaker 2: The Mets aren't going to see a fastball above ninety

1034
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:18,400
Speaker 2: one miles an hour from any any of these starters.

1035
00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:20,279
Speaker 1: I think the Cubs, I thought thought I saw a

1036
00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:23,480
Speaker 1: stat that basically the Cubs average like fastball velocity from

1037
00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:26,080
Speaker 1: their starters is under ninety miles an hour.

1038
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:29,319
Speaker 2: Well, the Cubs that's an organizational tactic that they've done

1039
00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,759
Speaker 2: this year, tried. Apparently the Cubs don't have any money,

1040
00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:33,680
Speaker 2: which is untrue. They really just have a cheap They

1041
00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:35,440
Speaker 2: just have a cheap owner. I think they spend too

1042
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:39,000
Speaker 2: much money putting adjustments on Wrigley Field the last few

1043
00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:41,239
Speaker 2: years and just have lost ticket sales. But that's neither

1044
00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:43,520
Speaker 2: here nor there. They've kind of leaned into this anti

1045
00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:46,000
Speaker 2: velocity approach because they found what seems like a market

1046
00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:49,279
Speaker 2: inefficiency because everyone's paying for velocity. A lot of guys

1047
00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:52,439
Speaker 2: in this staff, excluding Area and Williams. The guys we see,

1048
00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:55,759
Speaker 2: of course, have pretty good like stuff, like they have

1049
00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:58,640
Speaker 2: good breaking balls, fastballs that move a lot. Davies is

1050
00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:00,400
Speaker 2: like that. Davis always has low e R and no

1051
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:02,759
Speaker 2: one knows why. The same like Alex Mill is being

1052
00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:04,319
Speaker 2: used in relief right now, so it looks like we're

1053
00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:06,200
Speaker 2: gonna miss him. And Adbert Alzelig got sent to the

1054
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:09,200
Speaker 2: alternate side last week, who's been so so so far

1055
00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:11,160
Speaker 2: in his Career's got stuff though, Yeah, yeah, no, those

1056
00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:14,200
Speaker 2: guys have stuff. Area than Trevor Williams do not have stuff.

1057
00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:15,520
Speaker 2: No lack of lack of stuff.

1058
00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:18,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's this like, again, man, if these bats could

1059
00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:21,560
Speaker 1: just wake up, if these bats could just wake up, weird.

1060
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:23,480
Speaker 2: It's gonna happen. It's gonna happen. You can't. It's not

1061
00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:25,360
Speaker 2: like the Mets aren't gonna hit this year. There's no

1062
00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:26,800
Speaker 2: way that's like possible.

1063
00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:28,960
Speaker 1: No, they're too They have literally too good of a lineup.

1064
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:30,439
Speaker 1: This is one of the better lineups that we've seen

1065
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:32,440
Speaker 1: in our lifetime. So they're gonna hit. It's just a

1066
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:35,680
Speaker 1: matter of like getting back into that rhythm. Hitting is contagious,

1067
00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:38,319
Speaker 1: and clearly when they're not hitting, it's also contagious, which

1068
00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:41,160
Speaker 1: is very topical with COVID nineteen still existing. But again,

1069
00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:43,279
Speaker 1: if we thought the Rocky Series was gonna be the one,

1070
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:44,600
Speaker 1: if there was a series, this is the one that

1071
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 1: we need. If there's a series, now it's the Cubs one.

1072
00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:46,800
Speaker 1: They're not.

1073
00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 2: It's still going to be cold. It's so hard to

1074
00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:51,399
Speaker 2: hit in the cold. And we've been talking a lot

1075
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:54,279
Speaker 2: about how bad the Mets have been on offense through

1076
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:56,479
Speaker 2: through the season so far. They actually have the tenth

1077
00:42:56,520 --> 00:43:00,040
Speaker 2: highest wOBA in Baseball possible. I have no idea. I

1078
00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:01,920
Speaker 2: myself am shocked.

1079
00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:04,160
Speaker 1: They walk and like, hey, well they're not hitting home runs.

1080
00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:05,680
Speaker 1: I can't even use that they have six home runs

1081
00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:06,600
Speaker 1: on the season or whatever.

1082
00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 2: It is by far the lowest in baseball.

1083
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:11,680
Speaker 1: That's so bad. That's lower than the Marlins. Imagine, imagine

1084
00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:14,520
Speaker 1: lower than the Marlins. I think the outlook is we're

1085
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:16,400
Speaker 1: still feeling good as Mets fans. I think like we

1086
00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:18,600
Speaker 1: won the series. We won the series, and we didn't

1087
00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:21,480
Speaker 1: play particularly a team game. It was very one sided.

1088
00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:23,879
Speaker 1: The pitching carried us, which is awesome to see because, again,

1089
00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:25,759
Speaker 1: if you had any problems that you thought we're gonna

1090
00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:27,200
Speaker 1: be with this team at the start of the year,

1091
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:28,880
Speaker 1: it was on the pitching side. You thought the offense

1092
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:30,759
Speaker 1: was gonna be fine. So it's good to see that

1093
00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:32,799
Speaker 1: what we thought was gonna be an issue was playing well.

1094
00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:34,600
Speaker 1: And we know that the offense is going to readjust

1095
00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 1: as the season gets longer. They're just too talented, not

1096
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:38,600
Speaker 1: too a lot of great things to take out of

1097
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:43,239
Speaker 1: the series. Again, fucking love Marcus Stroman, Please Jersey for

1098
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:45,759
Speaker 1: a while along the Jacob de Grom like Stroman has

1099
00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:49,279
Speaker 1: a point nine to zero era Y zero point four

1100
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:50,920
Speaker 1: to five I think I saw or something like that.

1101
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:53,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's point four five or point four to seven

1102
00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:53,799
Speaker 2: something in there.

1103
00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:55,800
Speaker 1: How how has that idea?

1104
00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:59,280
Speaker 2: No idea Stroman, He's due for some regression. Of course,

1105
00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:01,800
Speaker 2: he's only tracking out thirteen percent of the batters he's facing,

1106
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:03,680
Speaker 2: by far, the lowest in his career. You need to

1107
00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:05,239
Speaker 2: see that number go up, but I think we will.

1108
00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:07,799
Speaker 2: I think he's been pitching to contact more so. Summertime

1109
00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:10,640
Speaker 2: gets nice and warm, human in the air, grip that slide,

1110
00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:12,520
Speaker 2: they get that split change going. He'll be back, He'll

1111
00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:12,879
Speaker 2: be back.

1112
00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:15,720
Speaker 1: No, he's he's been pitching smarter, not harder, and that's

1113
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:19,040
Speaker 1: been working. So I have no complaints here, Mets. We're

1114
00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:22,000
Speaker 1: seven and four, seven four, eight and seven and four

1115
00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:25,000
Speaker 1: first place. The rest of the vision is just not

1116
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:27,399
Speaker 1: playing good baseball right now, which like no one.

1117
00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:29,160
Speaker 2: In baseball is playing good baseball. There's only like a

1118
00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:32,200
Speaker 2: handful of teams who are over five hundred, which is weird.

1119
00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:34,279
Speaker 1: Like the Phillies got to smack around the Cardinals and

1120
00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:36,919
Speaker 1: the Cardinals stink. So we know that metster in first place,

1121
00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:39,000
Speaker 1: medstern first place, and we got games in hand. I

1122
00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:40,960
Speaker 1: love having games in hand, I really do, especially like

1123
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 1: over a long season one sixty two. If Mets can

1124
00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:45,280
Speaker 1: throw out some wins here and there. They're playing good baseball.

1125
00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:48,000
Speaker 1: The Nationals like atrocious. Strasburg went down on the eel today,

1126
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:51,160
Speaker 1: which sucks just like as a baseball the Braves have

1127
00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:53,399
Speaker 1: been losing guys left and right. They have no third

1128
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:55,560
Speaker 1: basement shown. They called up thirty six year old Seawan

1129
00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:57,640
Speaker 1: Kasmar to play third base, which is a cool story,

1130
00:44:57,680 --> 00:44:59,680
Speaker 1: but that's a problem if you're calling up a forty

1131
00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:01,760
Speaker 1: year old guy to play, you know, be your starter.

1132
00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:05,360
Speaker 1: Mets have an opportunity, especially against the Cubs, to really

1133
00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:07,640
Speaker 1: make a little bit of a dent here early in

1134
00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:08,120
Speaker 1: the season.

1135
00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:10,840
Speaker 2: That Cubs, then Nationals, and then.

1136
00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:12,960
Speaker 1: The Red Sox that were luckily starting to cool off

1137
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:14,560
Speaker 1: right now, so we might be catching them at the

1138
00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:15,160
Speaker 1: right time too.

1139
00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:16,799
Speaker 2: We got two shows before that series.

1140
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:18,920
Speaker 1: We got so many shows before that, which I mean

1141
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:20,960
Speaker 1: kind of leads us to the end of this show here,

1142
00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:23,120
Speaker 1: because we've been talking about the Mets for way longer

1143
00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:24,080
Speaker 1: than we thought we were here.

1144
00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:26,279
Speaker 2: We've been we've been rambling about nonsense for at least

1145
00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:26,760
Speaker 2: ten minutes.

1146
00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:29,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, and there will be plenty of stuff cut out,

1147
00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:31,279
Speaker 1: so you guys aren't going to hear everything, which I'm

1148
00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:33,440
Speaker 1: sorry but we do say a lot of nonsense that

1149
00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:35,680
Speaker 1: is not important, and we want to keep the watch

1150
00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:37,439
