Shoho tani Oh, by the way, had 45 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 2: two home runs two doubles. They also walked him five times, 46 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 2: four intentionally. And that's one of those moments where, and 47 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 2: we were talking about this earlier this morning, we're actually 48 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 2: watching the greatest baseball player of all time. We're watching 49 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 2: him in real time. It's happening right now. It's not 50 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 2: one of those Hey, you should have seen that guy play. 51 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 2: He's the greatest baseball player. 52 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 3: Of all time. 53 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 2: Babe Ruth did something, but he didn't do it together. 54 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 2: He didn't do a combination. That doesn't mean he couldn't 55 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 2: have done it, but he didn't do it. He was 56 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 2: a great pitcher, best pitcher in the game, and then 57 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 2: all of a sudden decided to be the greatest hitter. 58 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 2: Show Hey Otani with what he and he pitches tonight, 59 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,640 Speaker 2: So you're going to have that performance where you walk 60 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 2: him four times. And I talked about this when the 61 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 2: series started. If you don't have left handed pitching against 62 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 2: the Dodgers, you're in trouble because you don't have you 63 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 2: got Freddie Freeman and show Hey Otani, and if you 64 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:25,959 Speaker 2: don't have somebody that you can bring in and go, 65 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 2: I can. 66 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 3: Get that guy out. 67 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 2: They've gotten to the point where he's getting Bond's treatment 68 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 2: and I want you to pitch in shame. 69 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 3: If you're going to intentionally walk him. 70 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 2: I want you to throw the four pitches that look 71 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 2: silly because you don't want to face him. I don't 72 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 2: want it to be I had we're going to walk 73 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 2: him and I point him to first base. Nope, I 74 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 2: want you to pitch in shame. I want you to 75 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 2: acknowledge that you can't get him out, and you throw 76 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 2: those four pitches. But I mean one of the home runs, 77 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 2: I went, oh. 78 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 3: What are we doing? 79 00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 2: What do you How could you possibly put it anywhere 80 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 2: near that? And they did, and I'm thinking, oh, my goodness, 81 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 2: so Ohtani made him pay. Freddie Freeman made him pay. 82 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 2: There was one nervous moment there when Clayton Kershaw was 83 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 2: in with the bases loaded. 84 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:16,840 Speaker 5: Oh. 85 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 2: I just was like, just get the out, go, sit down, 86 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:25,279 Speaker 2: don't pitch anymore, and maybe you win the World Series. 87 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 3: But they would cut away to his wife. 88 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:32,599 Speaker 2: Oh, you talk about the ebb and flow, the highs 89 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,839 Speaker 2: and lows, and you rarely think about when you're the 90 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,720 Speaker 2: family is there watching this, Oh, just get off the mount. 91 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 2: That's all I could think of. But watching that last night, 92 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 2: or at least as long as I could. You're watching 93 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 2: the best player in baseball history. 94 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 3: Now. 95 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 2: I know people are going to say, well, what about 96 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 2: Babe Ruth. Babe was a better hitter. But what he 97 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 2: is doing at the same time, And imagine, just imagine 98 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 2: if he goes out there tonight and pitches at five 99 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:06,160 Speaker 2: or six innings quality baseball and everybody emptied their bullpen 100 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 2: like this is one of those losses. That's not just 101 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,600 Speaker 2: one loss. You used your bullpen, you realize you can't 102 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 2: pitch to Otani, and all of a sudden you're gonna 103 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 2: face him on the mound. That was That was monumental 104 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,720 Speaker 2: I think last night. But up two games to one. 105 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 2: I know it's only one game. All it takes is, 106 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 2: you know, a couple of breaks going your way, but 107 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 2: that one, that one's stinging, and you got to turn 108 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 2: around and go back out there and play again tonight. 109 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 2: And then the next game is on Wednesday. So these 110 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 2: pitching staffs are really going to be taxed. But that's 111 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 2: where if you get Yamamoto, who gives you a complete game, 112 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 2: if Otani can give you five or six innings here, 113 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 2: you have an incredible advantage here. All right, See, let's 114 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 2: pull question for hour one. 115 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,239 Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, when you look at his at bats 116 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 6: last night, show Heotani, he had a double, a home run, 117 00:05:57,839 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 6: a double, a home run. He was then intentionally walked 118 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 6: four straight times and then walk the fifth time. 119 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 3: That's a hell of a night. 120 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, when you're talking about let me see. So he 121 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:12,119 Speaker 2: walked five times four intentionally, reach base nine times nine 122 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 2: times in the game, the only player to be walked 123 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 2: intentionally four times in a postseason game since they started 124 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,280 Speaker 2: tracking this in nineteen fifty five. 125 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:22,720 Speaker 7: It's fight. 126 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:26,039 Speaker 6: Paul was just saying, if you took that series of 127 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 6: at bats from showho Tony, just from last night, that's 128 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 6: good enough to win a World Series MVP. 129 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 3: For the whole series, So the whole thing. If you 130 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 3: had two doubles and two home runs. 131 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 2: Well, he won the National League the NLCS MVP based 132 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 2: off one game, and he might win this MVP. Wait, 133 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 2: based off one game. All right, we'll get to your 134 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,279 Speaker 2: phone calls coming up. What was the poll question, Seaton. 135 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 6: Well, we could start with intentional walks since you got 136 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 6: there right there. Intentional walks are super smart or super lame. 137 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 2: Well, no, I get it, but I want you to 138 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 2: pitch in shame that you can't get that guy out. 139 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 2: I want you to acknowledge with four pitches out of 140 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 2: the strike zone that I can't get him. 141 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 6: You need to be humiliated that way. I'm all for 142 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 6: speeding the game up, I really am, but I'm not 143 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 6: for just we choose to put him up for no, 144 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 6: throw the four pitches in shame. 145 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 3: Throw them. 146 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 2: Yes, Either that or you must walk up to the 147 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 2: hitter and escort him to first base, like you know, 148 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 2: you're going out there for homecoming and on the football field, 149 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 2: and you must have him hold your arm and you 150 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 2: escort him to first base. We must shame you, Yes, 151 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 2: we must be shamed. 152 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 3: We must do it. Shame you. 153 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 2: All right, we get to phone calls coming up. There 154 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 2: was football last night, and you probably saw why Patrick 155 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 2: Mahomes is the leading candidate for the MVP. Now you 156 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 2: see the Chiefs full strength for the most part. Now, 157 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 2: granted you didn't have Jadon Daniels that would have made 158 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 2: obviously a little bit more of an impact. But you 159 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 2: have Rashi Rice there and that's a big difference. So 160 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 2: you get Xavier Worthy and Rashi Rice now all of 161 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 2: a sudden, and you got to deal with you speed. 162 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 3: Jason kelce doesn't have to do much. His role is 163 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 3: Travis Kelcey. 164 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 2: His role is more of a like Gronk late in 165 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 2: his Patriots career, where Brady only wanted him there for 166 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 2: the postseason and in the red zone. That's it, and 167 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 2: maybe that's what you get out of Travis Kelcey. 168 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 3: But watching last. 169 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 2: Night, he did have a touchdown, but that's not what 170 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 2: their offense is really predicated on. It's still I got 171 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 2: guys that I can make plays with now. 172 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 3: And Mahomes was great. He was He's great. 173 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 2: He keeps plays alive and it's one of those you 174 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 2: see these younger players trying to do that. They're just 175 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 2: not as well equipped as Mahomes is. You can keep 176 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,319 Speaker 2: it alive and then you have to all of a 177 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,679 Speaker 2: sudden say all right, I'm gonna call this off or 178 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 2: I might throw it away, I might run for a 179 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,680 Speaker 2: little bit. He's not scrambling, he's just keeping it alive. 180 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 2: And I think there's a big and I'm going to 181 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 2: talk to Steve Young about that next hour. Keeping a 182 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 2: play alive but also not scrambling around and trying to 183 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,719 Speaker 2: hold the ball for five or six seconds. That's when 184 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,080 Speaker 2: you get in trouble. That's when you take sacks. But 185 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 2: watching Mahomes, and I know it's not the same thing 186 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 2: as Otani, but you are watching something incredibly special. He's 187 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 2: not going to be the greatest quarterback of all time 188 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 2: unless he wins more Super Bowls than Brady or is 189 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,840 Speaker 2: equal to Brady. It's kind of what we did to Lebron. 190 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 2: You know, he's not passing Michael Therefore he's not going 191 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 2: to be greater in people's minds. But you're watching Mahomes 192 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 2: play a position, the toughest position in all the sports 193 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 2: to play, and playing it differently than anybody else in 194 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 2: the league, and he is the one great. He is 195 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 2: Marianna Rivera when it comes to quarterbacking and closing out 196 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 2: a game, keeping a play alive, all of those great things. Now, 197 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 2: is he been roughed up embarrassed in a couple of 198 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,679 Speaker 2: Super Bowls? He has, But when you see him play 199 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 2: at a very high level, it's a treat because I 200 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,439 Speaker 2: can go back to seeing Joe Namath play, Johnny Uniteds 201 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 2: late in his career, all of those quarterbacks, Bart Starr, 202 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 2: you know, guys in the sixties, and to see the 203 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,200 Speaker 2: transformation of the quarterbacking position. 204 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 3: To watch the evolution of that, it's great. 205 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 2: And I got into this business because I loved watching it, 206 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 2: covering it, being around it. And to watch o'tani last night, 207 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 2: to watch Patrick Mahomes last night, what a treat, an 208 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 2: absolute treat. All right, So we'll have phone calls coming up. 209 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 2: The football game last night. Not a lot to recap 210 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 2: with that. But the Chiefs are now five and three 211 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 2: and the Commanders, you know, you start to look and 212 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 2: you go, okay, we can't afford too many of those losses. Now, 213 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 2: that's a loss that we expected even with Jaden Daniels. 214 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 2: But you get to the halfway point, trade deadline. I 215 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 2: think the Bills are going to be involved in the 216 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 2: trade deadline. I think Dallas is going to try to be. 217 00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 2: There's a couple of teams that are buying. I'm not 218 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 2: sure who's selling. That'll be interesting as well. All right, 219 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 2: let me see anything else that needs to be brought up. 220 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 8: Yes, Paul, I was thinking about Mahomes his stats the 221 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 8: past couple of years. His stats have been different than 222 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 8: this first five years. His first five years as a starter, 223 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 8: he averaged three hundred and ten passing yards per game. 224 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 8: The past three years, he's averaging two hundred and sixty 225 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 8: passing yards per game. His quarterback rating is the same. 226 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 8: His efficiency is completion. You just remove Tyreek Hill. They 227 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 8: don't have the deep threat or they don't try to 228 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:34,319 Speaker 8: go deep as much. But you know, it's less spectacular, 229 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:35,560 Speaker 8: but it's just as efficient. 230 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 2: But he changed defenses because they decided they weren't going 231 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 2: to give up the big play. They were going to play, 232 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 2: you know, a shell kind of defense that won't let 233 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 2: you get those big plays. Each of Kansas City's five 234 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 2: wins this season have been by thirteen or more points. 235 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 2: Last year, they won a total of three games by 236 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 2: thirteen or more. So it's just a different Kansas City team. 237 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:02,320 Speaker 2: But that that's kind of the beauty of Andy Reid 238 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:03,479 Speaker 2: and Patrick Mahomes. 239 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 3: How are we going to beat you? 240 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,439 Speaker 2: Okay, we're going to be explosive to then all of 241 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,960 Speaker 2: a sudden, we're just going to be methodical to then 242 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,199 Speaker 2: we're going to be a defense and run first team 243 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 2: to now we're back to being explosive with those receivers. 244 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 2: But the average margin of victory in Week eight was 245 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 2: eighteen and a half points. 246 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:23,719 Speaker 3: That's the most we've had. 247 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 2: Since twenty twenty one, and the fourth largest of any 248 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 2: NFL week since two thousand. Stat of the Day brought 249 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 2: to you by Panania America. The official trading cards of 250 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:50,079 Speaker 2: a Dan Patrick Show Andrew in Washington leads to sop 251 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 2: Hi Andrew. 252 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,320 Speaker 9: Good morning, Dan Dennit, thanks for taking my call. 253 00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 10: That wasn't at the game here on the West. 254 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 9: Coast last night. I was up until eleven fifty pm 255 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 9: watching it like a whole baseball game, even after Monday night. 256 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 3: Football ended, which was just epic. 257 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 9: My question is this, like you've talked about show Heyo Tani. 258 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:11,559 Speaker 9: Freddie Freeman being the only Major League baseball player ever 259 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 9: with two World Series walk off home runs. That's amazing 260 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 9: in itself. But what's a more important home run to 261 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 9: Dodger history Kurt Gibson's home run or Freddie Freeman's home 262 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 9: run last night? 263 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 2: Oh Gibson, Yeah, because Gibbey's I mean, he's going against Eckersley, 264 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 2: one of the great closers of all time. You're a 265 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:35,200 Speaker 2: big underdog and all of a sudden you set the 266 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:39,440 Speaker 2: tone for the It won the World Series. It wasn't 267 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,319 Speaker 2: a walk off, it was Game one, but he limped 268 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 2: up there I think it was O two, and you know, 269 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, Eckersley's going to throw that back 270 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:52,600 Speaker 2: door slider and Gibby's going down. But now that that, 271 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 2: to me was more important because the Dodgers weren't favored 272 00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,840 Speaker 2: these This Dodger team has been had been big favorites here, 273 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 2: and that Dodger team did not have the firepower against 274 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:08,560 Speaker 2: the Oakland A's didn't compare. You had Oral Hersheizer, and 275 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 2: you had a group of players that kind of somehow 276 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 2: figured it out to some of the parts. But I 277 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,959 Speaker 2: would say Gibby Gibby's will live in infamy. I mean 278 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 2: that that one's and it's a great call as well. 279 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 2: I don't believe what I just saw, Like, oh my god, awesome. 280 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 2: And by the way, Gibby Gibby is suffering with Parkinson's. 281 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 2: And I talked to David Wells when we were in Tahoe, 282 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 2: and I waited until some of this information got public, 283 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 2: so I'm not speaking out of turn, but did talk 284 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 2: to him, and he goes hunting with Gibby. They own 285 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 2: a hunting lodge I think in Michigan, and you know, 286 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 2: he says that he's struggling, but he's still Gibby. He's 287 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 2: still competitive, he's still you still see that fire. 288 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 3: In him, but he's been struggling. 289 00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 2: Uh So, David went into detail talk a lot about Gibbee, 290 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 2: and he did say, you know, don't say anything about this. 291 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 2: I did appreciate him sharing with me because I always 292 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 2: had that great appreciation. I go back to Gibbey when 293 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,280 Speaker 2: he was in Michigan State as a wide receiver and 294 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 2: I remember him, Yeah, Poling. 295 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 8: There's a bit of a comparison Apples and Oortes, Kirk 296 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 8: Gibson and Freddie Freeman. Kirk Gibson was a great player 297 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 8: for Detroit for a decade I think before he got 298 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 8: to the Dodgers, and then when he got to the 299 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 8: Dodgers MVP the World Series. I bet there's people who 300 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 8: just associate him as a Dodger because that's his biggest moments. 301 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 8: Freddy Freeman made four or five All Star teams, probably 302 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 8: five All Star teams with Atlanta. But then he's now 303 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 8: he's on this bigger stage with the Dodgers and doing 304 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 8: World Series stuff. Twenty years from now, you be like, oh, 305 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 8: that great Dodger player, Freddie Freeman. He also played a 306 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 8: little bit with the Braves ten years. 307 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 2: And go back to Otawi where people are going to 308 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 2: forget that he played for the Angels and he won 309 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 2: two MVPs there, but he never got these opportunities. You 310 00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 2: want to cement yourself in history, do it on the 311 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:03,480 Speaker 2: big stage, do it in the postseason. And that's why 312 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 2: Mike Trout never got that opportunity. And Mike Trout will 313 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 2: be one of those guys where people go, how many MVPs, 314 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 2: how many World Series, how many what are you doing 315 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 2: in the postseason. It may not be fair because it's 316 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 2: only one player, but you know we said for years 317 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 2: the Angel should have traded Mike Trout, and you know, 318 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 2: he was a great soldier. I don't think he ever 319 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 2: asked out, granted, and he's getting paid four hundred million dollars, 320 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 2: but O'tani knew that he needed to be on a 321 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 2: bigger stage. He knew greatness and that's what you're seeing. 322 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, Marvin, is. 323 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 11: Freddy Freeman going to be in the same category as 324 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 11: maybe like a David Ortiz, where the postseason heroics put 325 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 11: you in the Hall of Fame along with the great 326 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:47,160 Speaker 11: regular season All Star games and things like that. 327 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 3: I'd have to look at his numbers. 328 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 11: He's got an MVP. 329 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 2: I think, yeah, yeah, let's take a break.

If you have 366 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 2: twenty four hundred hits, got three hundred, just under three seventy. 367 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,239 Speaker 2: As far as home runs, let's say he ends up 368 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 2: with four hundred home runs, you end up with How 369 00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:50,280 Speaker 2: old is he? 370 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 8: He's uh thirty five years old? 371 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 13: Who? 372 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:54,640 Speaker 3: Okay? 373 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 8: Five All Star appearances with Atlanta four straight and four 374 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:01,399 Speaker 8: years with the Dodgers. He's got an MVP, he's got 375 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,199 Speaker 8: a three hundred batting average for his career. 376 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 3: The postseason is a big boost. 377 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, I think it's a walk in Yeah. 378 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Marvin. 379 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:13,760 Speaker 11: I think long gone are the days of I need 380 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:15,480 Speaker 11: to hit this number and I'll get into the Hall 381 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 11: of Fame. I think it's were you at the peak 382 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,560 Speaker 11: of your career? Like, how good were you at your peak? 383 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:21,400 Speaker 14: Well? 384 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 2: I think having the World Series MVP helps a lot, 385 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 2: and having big moments in the World Series. 386 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 3: I do think that we like round numbers. 387 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 14: You know. 388 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 2: It's like Dale Murphy had three hundred and ninety eight 389 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:37,399 Speaker 2: home runs, Barry Sanders I think had ninety nine touchdown. Like, 390 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 2: we like to get round numbers here. They're just easier 391 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:41,919 Speaker 2: to remember, yes, Marvin. 392 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,719 Speaker 11: Yeah, but that's important if you don't have any postseason success. 393 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 3: Yeah. 394 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 11: Like I don't know how many home runs David Ortiz has, 395 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:48,960 Speaker 11: but I know in the biggest moments in the play 396 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:50,680 Speaker 11: in the postseason he came up big. 397 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 3: Yeah. 398 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 2: Gold Glove winner as well, had one of those. So yeah, 399 00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 2: probably going to be an MVP or probably going to 400 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,400 Speaker 2: be a Hall of Yeah, Paulie. 401 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 8: If Freddy Freeman weren't batting behind two spots behind Babe Ruth, 402 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 8: you'd probably win another World Series MVP. You know, Yamamoto 403 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 8: and Otani are gonna be one and two for the 404 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:14,200 Speaker 8: World Series MVP. And Freeman got the home run. 405 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's one of those that we're going to remember 406 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 2: his home run and we might actually forget that a 407 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:21,879 Speaker 2: guy got on base nine times, intentionally walk four times. 408 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,360 Speaker 2: He had two home runs as well, and it was Hey, 409 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 2: remember the Freddie Freeman walk off home run in eighteen innings? 410 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 3: Yes, Todd, how. 411 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:31,399 Speaker 15: Many World Series do you have to win as a 412 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 15: starter if you didn't necessarily do anything that huge in 413 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 15: the World Series or in the postseason, like we owe 414 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 15: the quarterback once they say two Super Bowls were putting 415 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 15: them in the Hall of Fame, So how does that 416 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:43,439 Speaker 15: work in baseball like a five, six eight would be. 417 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 15: Is there any way of calculating that if you like 418 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:47,639 Speaker 15: the way you do with a quarterback in the NFL? 419 00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:52,479 Speaker 2: No, No, because I you know, even when you look 420 00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:55,360 Speaker 2: at voters, I don't know if anybody brings up Ted 421 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 2: Williams not winning World Series, Barry Bond's not winning World Series. 422 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 3: So it. 423 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 2: But their greatness. They didn't need that, they were that great. 424 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,680 Speaker 2: But I think some players. When you do have that, 425 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:10,880 Speaker 2: that can put you over the edge, that can put 426 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 2: you right on the doorstep of the Hall of Fame. 427 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 2: But I with what Freddie Freeman has done with two 428 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 2: different teams, being an All Star that many times, a 429 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:22,640 Speaker 2: World Series MVP, winning a couple of World Series and 430 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 2: having a couple of big moments. Having numbers, I still 431 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:30,199 Speaker 2: think you have to have like a ballpark number. Now 432 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 2: it's not five hundred home runs. I think if you 433 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,200 Speaker 2: have four hundred, and you're gonna have four hundred home runs, 434 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 2: and you're gonna have twenty seven twenty six hundred hits 435 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:41,880 Speaker 2: and you have his resume, then you're gonna go into 436 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame. 437 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, Paul. 438 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 8: Freddy Freeman also has seven career home runs in the 439 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 8: World Series that puts him tied for tenth all time, 440 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:50,959 Speaker 8: and most of the guys ahead of them played at 441 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:54,720 Speaker 8: least fifty years ago, you know, Mantle, Ruth Bearra, Louke Gerig, 442 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 8: even Reggie Jackson has ten. But Freddy Freeman's done it 443 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 8: in only sixty four played appearance. He is the highest 444 00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 8: World Series home run ratio. 445 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,639 Speaker 3: Christin Syracuse, Hi, Chris, good morning, what's on your mind? 446 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 16: Hey, Thanks Dan, Hey, I want to comment on the 447 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 16: baseball and also you know the NBA's gambling report last week. 448 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:13,919 Speaker 16: I think that will definitely have an impact on the 449 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:18,640 Speaker 16: severity of the Ravens upcoming punishment for their injury report misstep. 450 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:22,680 Speaker 16: And interesting in the baseball Freddie Freeman born in Canada 451 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,160 Speaker 16: and played for the Canadian national team and after last 452 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,199 Speaker 16: night's game with Shohy pitching tonight, Man, the ratings are 453 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:32,679 Speaker 16: going to be unbelievable and I believe this postseason Showhey 454 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 16: had a stretch where he was one for twenty one 455 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:38,359 Speaker 16: from the plate, but with the way he's hitting now 456 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 16: and last night the Jays walked him five times and 457 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 16: that resulted in zero Dodger runs. You wonder if for 458 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,359 Speaker 16: this game and maybe for the rest of the series, 459 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 16: they're going to walk them every time. And I'm sure 460 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 16: that the MLB and the networks are dreading that possibility, 461 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:57,200 Speaker 16: and not just for tonight, but long term because some 462 00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 16: of us, including me, we tune in to watch him. 463 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 16: He's kind of like the Caitlin Clark of baseball. 464 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:05,959 Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree with you. 465 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 2: You want to see great players have the opportunity to 466 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:11,680 Speaker 2: be great, and that was always disappointing when bonds would 467 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 2: come to the plate and they just put him on 468 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 2: you know, when you're walking him intentionally and he walks 469 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 2: over two hundred times in a season. It's just bad 470 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:23,440 Speaker 2: optics entertainment. You want to see Otani swing the bat. 471 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 2: But there's one pit. He had a home run last 472 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:28,800 Speaker 2: night on a pitch and I'm thinking, in a in 473 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 2: a million years, going over the scouting report, don't put it. 474 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 2: Don't put the ball there, out over the plate, don't 475 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 2: let him extend. 476 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:37,960 Speaker 3: Now he's going to beat you. 477 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 2: He can go opposite, he can go dead center, he 478 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 2: can go obviously you know, take it to right field. 479 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 2: I'm just amazed sometimes the pitches that Judge and Otani 480 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:52,440 Speaker 2: get where you just go, How could you possibly come 481 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,920 Speaker 2: even close to that location. I'm going to make you 482 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,639 Speaker 2: chase something, and if I don't, then I've walked you. 483 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 2: But I can't go up there and go I'm going 484 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 2: to pitch to you and then give you a pitch 485 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 2: where you go. Like Suresers pitch to him was up 486 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:09,919 Speaker 2: you know, it didn't have the volac. If you're throwing 487 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 2: ninety nine there, then okay, maybe you get him to 488 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,320 Speaker 2: pop it. Up. But if you're going to throw that 489 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 2: inside to him and it doesn't have movement or it 490 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 2: doesn't have velocity at ninety nine, he's gonna take you deep. 491 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 3: But the other one out over the plate. 492 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,199 Speaker 2: I went, oh, my goodness, you deserve to be you know, 493 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 2: watching him circle the basis uh Buddha in San Francisco. 494 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 3: Hi Buddha, what a DP.

Dave in Arkansas, Good morning, Dave. 548 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 19: I don't know if I want to be called Pittsburgh Dave. 549 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 17: You know, first off, prayers. 550 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:35,399 Speaker 19: Up for Jamaica. What's about to happen down there with 551 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:40,879 Speaker 19: the hurricane is as off the charts. But I was 552 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 19: so embarrassed Sunday night watching that football game, not so 553 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 19: much for the play. I mean, it was getting bad. 554 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:54,120 Speaker 19: I understood that I'm making dinner, I'm watching the football, 555 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 19: but to hear go Pack, go take over. I'm still 556 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 19: gonna call of Hinsfield, but take over that stadium. I 557 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 19: was so embarrassed. That does not happen. We travel, we 558 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:11,959 Speaker 19: go to all the other stadiums, we take over other towns. 559 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 19: I could not believe what I was hearing. And I 560 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 19: do have a question about what do you think they 561 00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:21,119 Speaker 19: should do with the trade line deadline? It seems like 562 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 19: they need defensive help, but they don't have any offensive 563 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 19: help to give away. And if they try to get 564 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 19: offensive help, I don't know if anybody wants. I mean, 565 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,159 Speaker 19: outside of tj WY, you can say, but that's just 566 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:33,919 Speaker 19: not going to happen. 567 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 3: But what do they do? I don't know. 568 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,920 Speaker 2: You spent your money, DK Metcalf. You wanted to improve 569 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 2: that offensive line. Since you had a forty year old 570 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 2: as your quarterback. We thought the defense was going to 571 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:49,560 Speaker 2: be formidable. That's been kind of the surprising part for me. 572 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 2: John in Minnesota, Hi, John, Hey. 573 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 13: Dan, I had a question, where does O'Kane's contract rank as. 574 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 8: Far as like ROI right, I mean. 575 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 7: Him, it's got him and Mahomes and then nobody else. 576 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:08,480 Speaker 2: Well, I think Mahomes is one of the greatest bargains 577 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:13,720 Speaker 2: in sports contract history because at the time I remember 578 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:15,880 Speaker 2: I remember that day and people were like, can you 579 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:19,160 Speaker 2: believe they gave him a half a billion dollars. I said, 580 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 2: it's going to be a bargain. That guy will be 581 00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:23,680 Speaker 2: a bargain, and he is a bargain. 582 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 3: Now. 583 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 2: It took a little while, but you saw what the 584 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 2: return on your investment is with Otani, and I saw 585 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 2: something where somebody said, the Dodgers have already gotten their 586 00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 2: return on that contract, the ROI return on investment. I mean, 587 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 2: that's that's a lot of money. But if you're talking 588 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:50,120 Speaker 2: about what he does here in Japan, I don't know 589 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 2: how you're able to look at that and go, Okay, 590 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,160 Speaker 2: we can break this down and we know exactly what 591 00:29:56,560 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 2: they paid and what their return is. I don't know 592 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 2: what that return is, what that return looks like. You know, 593 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:06,479 Speaker 2: you still have a great fan base. It's not like 594 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 2: you're going to bring people out and it's the Marlins. 595 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 2: You know, it's the Dodgers. They're going to come out, 596 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 2: you know, local TV ratings revenue that way. Also, what 597 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 2: this means in Japan, what this could mean for a pipeline. 598 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,640 Speaker 2: I mean Yamamoto came over so he could play with 599 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 2: Sho Hey Otani and look at. 600 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:29,280 Speaker 3: His value here. 601 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 2: So maybe you get that Japanese pipeline where these players 602 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 2: are going to want to come over and since there's 603 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,200 Speaker 2: no salary cap, they're going to want to play with Otani. 604 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 8: Yeah, Pauli Otani has one of the more unique contracts 605 00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 8: in baseball history. This year, he's going to make two 606 00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 8: million dollars. It's like an NFL running back. He is 607 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 8: going to make two million dollars per season the next 608 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 8: seven seasons. Then when he turns thirty nine, he makes 609 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 8: sixty eight million dollars per year basically after his career 610 00:30:55,520 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 8: is over. For the next nine years, it's all deferred, 611 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 8: which makes it that sports business journal article you're talking about. 612 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:07,960 Speaker 8: All the money they Owetani, they owe Otani the Dodgers 613 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:10,120 Speaker 8: hold so they're earning interest on it. They're not paying 614 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 8: him yet, they're holding it and it gets to him 615 00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 8: way at a later date. 616 00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, because he has so much money coming in from 617 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 2: endorsements off the field that the two million dollars salary, 618 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 2: he's fine with that. And the Dodgers created a business 619 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 2: model here that maybe I don't know if the Mets 620 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:31,440 Speaker 2: did this with Sodo, but if you get somebody to 621 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 2: take deferred money, and if I'm a fan and I'm like, 622 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:37,360 Speaker 2: this isn't we're paying Bobby Benia. If you're a Mets 623 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:41,840 Speaker 2: fan for that contract, you're gonna be like, hey, we're 624 00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 2: paying Shoheo Tani sixty eight million dollars and he's retired. 625 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 2: If you're a Dodger fan, you got that kind of money, 626 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 2: you got that financial backing. You don't care, doesn't bother, 627 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 2: it doesn't hurt your team when he's retired. It's not like, oh, 628 00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 2: we got a dead cap hit or something. It's we're 629 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 2: paying this guy. You know, we gave him a golden parachute. 630 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 2: But he's got a lot more baseball left to be played. 631 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 2: All right, we'll take a break play of the day. 632 00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:12,479 Speaker 2: Go figure, what do you think that'll be? 633 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 3: Is up next? 634 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 635 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 1: the nation.

Everybody was trying to get up. I literally, 679 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:57,720 Speaker 13: I'm on two hours of sleep. I'm in route to Lax. 680 00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 13: I gotta take a flight to Philly, but so jacked up. 681 00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:03,359 Speaker 13: I feel like I took a shot of red Bull 682 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 13: or something. It was phenomenal feeling. Dodger's gonna close this 683 00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:09,720 Speaker 13: out at home. 684 00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:12,719 Speaker 18: It was just the. 685 00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:16,319 Speaker 13: Fans were kind of getting frustrated with Thoughtani getting walked 686 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:20,399 Speaker 13: so much. But what a performance. Nine times on base Man. 687 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:21,680 Speaker 13: Dodgers love them. 688 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:25,839 Speaker 2: Thank you, Frank, Safe travels Aiden in Utah, Hi Aiden, 689 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:28,719 Speaker 2: welcome back, yea. 690 00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:29,359 Speaker 10: And good morning. 691 00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:30,560 Speaker 17: How are you good? 692 00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:32,000 Speaker 13: Listen? 693 00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:34,440 Speaker 10: Yeah, I don't normally watch baseball. You know, I've been 694 00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 10: to a few regular season games. They're really fine to 695 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 10: watch in person, but every October comes around, play MLB 696 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 10: playoffs is one of the most exciting things to watch. 697 00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:46,640 Speaker 10: But last night reminded me why I don't watch baseball. 698 00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:49,400 Speaker 10: Eleven straight scoreless innings and I'm sitting there at one 699 00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 10: point thirty in the morning. Beyonest, that sleep. I'm out 700 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:55,880 Speaker 10: on the couch watching it. I mean, what am I 701 00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:58,479 Speaker 10: doing right now? And that is reminding me? Oh wait, 702 00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:00,000 Speaker 10: I don't watch baseball. 703 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:00,799 Speaker 18: I don't care. 704 00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,320 Speaker 3: I'm going to sleep all right. 705 00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:07,960 Speaker 2: I love extra ending postseason baseball. I think it's great 706 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:13,560 Speaker 2: and it's not equal to playoff hockey. Is that there's 707 00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:15,560 Speaker 2: no sport better than that when it comes to the 708 00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:19,040 Speaker 2: playoffs with tension, game on the line, and all it 709 00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 2: takes is one shot, that's it. 710 00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:24,359 Speaker 3: Matt in Salt Lake. Hey, Matt, what's on your mind? 711 00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 14: Hey, thanks for taking my call down the first time, 712 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:31,399 Speaker 14: very very long time. I appreciate the show. I think 713 00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:36,120 Speaker 14: the unsung hero of last night's game was the organ player. 714 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:42,040 Speaker 14: I don't think the organization has a bullpen for the 715 00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:45,560 Speaker 14: organ player, but the organ player was on point all 716 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:49,120 Speaker 14: night long. And then as the inning started drifted together, 717 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:52,279 Speaker 14: I think there was a call that was being questioned, 718 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:56,640 Speaker 14: he brought out the song never Ending Story because of 719 00:36:56,640 --> 00:37:00,080 Speaker 14: how long the game was going, and I just I 720 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:02,880 Speaker 14: at that late at night, I just started laughing. It 721 00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:03,720 Speaker 14: was a great moment. 722 00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:06,279 Speaker 2: All right, Well, thank you, Matt. I don't know if 723 00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:08,720 Speaker 2: anybody's going to give the organist credit. 724 00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:09,440 Speaker 3: Yes, Paul. 725 00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:12,879 Speaker 8: The organist for the La Dodgers is Deeter Rule, who 726 00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:14,880 Speaker 8: has been on the Dan Patrick Show just like a 727 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:15,960 Speaker 8: year a year and a half ago. 728 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:16,879 Speaker 18: Deeter Rule. 729 00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:19,160 Speaker 3: But didn't he get in trouble? Yeah? 730 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:22,680 Speaker 2: That was burning down the house he played, and there 731 00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:25,480 Speaker 2: was a fire that was outside of Chavez Ravine. 732 00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 3: I believe he's good. 733 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:27,319 Speaker 8: Yeah, a car was on fire. 734 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:30,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, he's good. Yeah he played 735 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:35,719 Speaker 2: burning down the house. Uh Mad, Matt, you know, I 736 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 2: think I think an organist has been thrown from a 737 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:38,800 Speaker 2: game before. 738 00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:41,120 Speaker 3: I think it might have been in Chicago. 739 00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:44,600 Speaker 8: Yeah, it was a Cubs organist playing three blind mice. 740 00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 3: Yes, and the I think I think the umpire ran him. Guys, 741 00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:53,560 Speaker 3: don't appreciate that. Matt in Ohio, Hi, Matt, what's on 742 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 3: your mind? 743 00:37:57,120 --> 00:38:00,120 Speaker 7: Hey, guys, good to talk to you again. I had 744 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,400 Speaker 7: a comment and a. 745 00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:03,040 Speaker 3: Question for you. 746 00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:08,399 Speaker 7: First off, that's the first time I heard that Shulman call. 747 00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:10,640 Speaker 7: If you play it again, it sounds like he almost 748 00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:14,680 Speaker 7: wants to say Freddie. There's a pause, Yeah, another another 749 00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:18,719 Speaker 7: F word and then freeman. Yeah, but that's uh yeah, 750 00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:20,080 Speaker 7: that sounded like that, but he didn't. 751 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:20,759 Speaker 14: He held off. 752 00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:23,960 Speaker 7: And the question I had for you is off topic 753 00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 7: with the re emergence, like the running game in the NFL, 754 00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:33,040 Speaker 7: Dan went, do you think it came down to a 755 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:35,200 Speaker 7: certain player or when do you think that kind of 756 00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 7: started the whole reemergence? And was it Saquon, was it 757 00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 7: something before that? Was it Derrick Henry? 758 00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:45,880 Speaker 2: But well, I'm going to take a victory lap on 759 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 2: this because I'd been saying for years when everybody was passing, 760 00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:52,839 Speaker 2: that somebody was eventually going to start running because the 761 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 2: players on the defense and the defensive line, they weren't 762 00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:59,240 Speaker 2: built to stop the run. You wanted everybody to be quick. 763 00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:01,800 Speaker 2: You want to have edge rushers get to the quarterback. 764 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:03,600 Speaker 2: You had to put pressure on the quarterback. And I said, 765 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:06,520 Speaker 2: at some point, somebody's going to go, why don't we 766 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:09,480 Speaker 2: just get good offensive line. We got a running back, 767 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:12,600 Speaker 2: and we're going to run right at these defenses. And 768 00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 2: that's what's happened. Derrick Henry, Saquon Barkley, McCaffrey is more 769 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:21,319 Speaker 2: of a you know, a Swiss army knife. But you're 770 00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:23,680 Speaker 2: starting to see more and more teams. You had a 771 00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:25,959 Speaker 2: couple of teams that ran for over two hundred yards. 772 00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:28,120 Speaker 2: I think three teams ran for over two hundred yards 773 00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:33,239 Speaker 2: this weekend. But it's your defenses are built differently. You 774 00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:36,480 Speaker 2: don't have that run stopper. I mean the Cowboys of 775 00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:39,719 Speaker 2: course do, but you don't have that run stopper. And 776 00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:43,360 Speaker 2: I think as a result, you're seeing you know, the 777 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:47,279 Speaker 2: Chiefs did this with Pacheco. They were running the ball, 778 00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:50,640 Speaker 2: playing defense with Patrick Mahomes as your quarterback. Yeah, Pauling. 779 00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:53,840 Speaker 8: In twenty sixteen, NFL teams ran for one hundred and 780 00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:57,080 Speaker 8: eight yards per game. That was the lowest sense I 781 00:39:57,120 --> 00:40:01,680 Speaker 8: mean basically ever, really ever, and last year is up 782 00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:04,319 Speaker 8: to one hundred and twenty yards per game. Yeah, quite 783 00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:04,759 Speaker 8: a bit up. 784 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:09,080 Speaker 2: And I still look for baseball to get a pitching 785 00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:12,359 Speaker 2: park and you have you invest in your pitching and 786 00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:15,359 Speaker 2: you do speed in defense like the Cardinals did back 787 00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 2: in the eighties. Somebody might do that because you're playing 788 00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:21,000 Speaker 2: half your games at home, which will be a pitcher's park, 789 00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:24,320 Speaker 2: You play defense and you run. I know the analytics 790 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:26,440 Speaker 2: will probably say what are you doing, just like the 791 00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:28,839 Speaker 2: analytics probably said in the NFL, what are you doing 792 00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:31,920 Speaker 2: running everybody's It's like the three point shot was the 793 00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:35,080 Speaker 2: forward pass in the NFL, and now all of a sudden, 794 00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:37,480 Speaker 2: we're getting back to taking two point jumpers. 795 00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:40,640 Speaker 15: Yes, Tom, you can create a park to match your roster, 796 00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:42,799 Speaker 15: but with all the turnover, it's not like yesteryear where 797 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:45,319 Speaker 15: players would be on the same team ten fifteen years. 798 00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:46,759 Speaker 15: So you do run the risk grab all of a 799 00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:48,759 Speaker 15: sudden a couple of years, you're not that team that's 800 00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:51,440 Speaker 15: speedy with the great the pitching. And now you just 801 00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:52,760 Speaker 15: kind of screwed yourself with am. 802 00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:53,760 Speaker 3: Well, it doesn't fit you. 803 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 2: You're still building your team based off that kind of player. 804 00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:59,360 Speaker 2: That's who you're drafting. You're drafting pitching, you're drafting speed. 805 00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 2: They basically said that base is there to steal. They 806 00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 2: even let you wear these gloves that are a little 807 00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:08,440 Speaker 2: bit larger. I don't know why baseball allows this, but 808 00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:12,720 Speaker 2: these sliding gloves you're probably getting a couple extra inches 809 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:18,759 Speaker 2: there as you're sliding in the bases are bigger. Much 810 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:22,319 Speaker 2: Baseball say, we're going to measure your mittens that you're wearing. Now, 811 00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:25,760 Speaker 2: Steve Young, the Hall of Famer, will join us, Reggie 812 00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:29,520 Speaker 2: Miller will stop by, and Kevin Malar from the Major 813 00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:31,520 Speaker 2: League Baseball Network, who was at the game,
