Bron Toddfather crats beer with you. 3 00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:09,879 Speaker 2: Are you surprised that the race is picked up again? 4 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:11,520 Speaker 2: Did you see this coming? No? 5 00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:14,520 Speaker 1: I didn't, but I'm I'm happily surprised because this is 6 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:19,799 Speaker 1: good for baseball and man, the Mets have fallen, Mariners, 7 00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:22,920 Speaker 1: some Astros are falling a little bit. This is uh 8 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:26,200 Speaker 1: pretty and it's exciting, you know. You hate to say, 9 00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:28,320 Speaker 1: like if you're a fan of those teams, you're like, oh, shoot, 10 00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:30,200 Speaker 1: here we go. The Reds are in it, the Giants 11 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:33,160 Speaker 1: are in it. It's gonna be interesting because you see 12 00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 1: some of these last sixteen seventeen games, whatever it is. 13 00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:42,559 Speaker 1: Some of the Mets they have a goallet Yankees they 14 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:44,599 Speaker 1: have some good teams that they should be you know, 15 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:48,239 Speaker 1: like Giants are always there, Dodgers, like what is going on? 16 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 1: This is great. It's great for baseball, I. 17 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 2: Think for the Yankees. The gauntlet finishes up soon and 18 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:53,880 Speaker 2: then it gets kind of easy for you. 19 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, the last thirteen, it's gonna hit all under five hundred, Orioles, Twins, 20 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 1: White Sox. Oh they go eleven and two, ten and three. 21 00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 1: Blue Jay's gonna have to keep pace. A little bit, Yeah, exactly. 22 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:07,560 Speaker 2: The craziest one is for teams that are in the 23 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 2: playoff picture for the entire year and then fall off 24 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:13,280 Speaker 2: a couple of weeks ago and you just hit the 25 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 2: momentum rut at the wrong time. 26 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:16,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, what's it like? 27 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:19,039 Speaker 2: Have you been through one of those situations where the 28 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 2: losses start piling up at a really bad time and you're. 29 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 1: Like, jeez, oh man, I'm trying to remember. I've only 30 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:29,560 Speaker 1: made the playoffs three times, okay, and we won a 31 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 1: division with the Reds. We snuck in a wild card 32 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: against the Pirates. Was it only two times? No? 33 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 3: Yanks? Oh? 34 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: And the Yankees in seventeen? Excuse me? 35 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:41,080 Speaker 4: Did you guys saw the division that year? 36 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 1: We did? We won the division. I came in later, 37 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 1: but yeah, it was I've never I don't think I've 38 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 1: been a part where it fizzled. I've been a part 39 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: where we gained ground. Like when I was with the Mets, 40 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 1: we were down like eight or nine, and then we 41 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 1: got it to like a game or half a game. 42 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 1: I hit the home run off Doolittle, and after that 43 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: game we couldn't really find a way to get to 44 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 1: the wild card. But yeah, it's teams are like scoreboard watching. 45 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 1: I mean, let's just be honest with you. I like 46 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 1: to scoreboard watch. I don't give a crap who's playing 47 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 1: and whatever it is. And if they say they don't, 48 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: oh no, no, my mind's directly here. We're not doing anything. Well, 49 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 1: guess what, you better start looking because somebody's behind you. 50 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, And scoreboard watching directly impacts the decision making, especially 51 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,240 Speaker 2: in the last week week and a half, because how 52 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 2: much do you have to push with your starter's. 53 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 4: Decision player wise, and you're starting pitching and you're starting rotation. 54 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 4: You gotta line it up like it's the playoffs. 55 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,639 Speaker 1: And if your bullpen's not working, well lookout. 56 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 4: Yeah. 57 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: You know, we look at the Yankees right now. It's 58 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 1: like they got to start figuring that out here too, 59 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: so we'll see what happens. They got a couple of 60 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 1: young pitchers that you know, hopefully can go fail with 61 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 1: Will Warren and Camp Schletter, they're pretty good ball players. 62 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: But at the same time, there's gonna be that instance 63 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: where they only go two or three innings, Like here 64 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 1: we go, who's gonna step up? Yep? 65 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 4: Exactly, all right, let's charge the damn mounds. 66 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 3: Charging about all right. 67 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 2: So let's start Todd Father with the Seattle Mariners, and 68 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 2: we're working on a mic for krat. 69 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 4: So we'll get the looks. 70 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 2: Fantastic, though I put him in the corner here and yeah, 71 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 2: this is your dream, actually putting him in time out. Yes, 72 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 2: that's exactly We've been doing this for two and a 73 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,919 Speaker 2: half years. You finally get to put your stepbrother. 74 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 4: In time out. 75 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: Yes, don't say anything. 76 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:21,079 Speaker 2: You can say whatever you want to him, you can't 77 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,679 Speaker 2: say it back exactly, all right. So tell me about 78 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 2: the Mariners and your thoughts on this team. So rookie 79 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 2: Harry Ford gets it done with the walkoff sack fly 80 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 2: that'll walk off the night before with Leo. 81 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:32,679 Speaker 4: Rebas with a home run. 82 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 2: The big boy names, of course, are Julio Rodriguez and 83 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 2: the whole starting rotation, the pickups like Josh Naylor, who's 84 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 2: been an important piece. Suarez hasn't kept the power going, 85 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 2: but the glove's been good for them. 86 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 4: Thoughts on this team. 87 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 1: This guy's a limit. I mean, we've always talked to 88 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:52,120 Speaker 1: them about their pitching, how good they are. With Gilbert 89 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: and Wu and all those guys. They are going to 90 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: ride that pitching staff until they get rid of these guys, 91 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: and I think that's the case. They picked up my 92 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 1: mean man, Jean Suarez. He was pretty darn good Rosarina. 93 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 1: They got guys that can play. They've won seventeen out 94 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: of the last twenty, which is unbelievable, and they are 95 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 1: right there against this Astro team. I don't see from 96 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: watching the Astros play. He's last like six to eight games, like, yeah, 97 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:21,839 Speaker 1: they're good, but nothing, you know, Alvarez is awesome, but 98 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:25,559 Speaker 1: nothing after that, like kind of just like, okay, they're good. 99 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: You know, hater's hurt, Like they got guys that they're missing. 100 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 1: The fran Ervaldez thing and I couldn't, you know, I 101 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: thank god I wasn't on this this time when he 102 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:38,159 Speaker 1: did that whole thing. But you know, for the most part, 103 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: I could see the Mariners taking this division, and I 104 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: could see him taking it by three or four games 105 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 1: as they go moving forward here. 106 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 2: Okay, and by the way, just to make sure no 107 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 2: one goes after you, they've won seventeen of twenty at all. 108 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 4: Oh excuse me, they've won six in a row overall. 109 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,160 Speaker 1: That's what I'm meant. Either, that's still a good stime. 110 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 1: It is they were a mess on the road though. 111 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, what was talked about a lot was a difficult 112 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 2: schedule for a team that travels more than any other 113 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 2: team in baseball, and the fact that they had two 114 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 2: super extensive road trips down the stretch of the season. 115 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 2: Now they come back, they look much more normal god Fathers. 116 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 2: So they're tied for first place in the American League 117 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 2: West over the Astros. Astros were shut down and shut 118 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 2: out by Kevin Gossay yesterday. 119 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 4: That game was sell slice over two hours. 120 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, all around, great winning for the Blue Jays, but 121 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 2: you're right for the Astros. 122 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 4: You're anounced back. That's great. 123 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 2: They've still had a lot of quiet moments on offense. 124 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 2: I feel like it's like agree in every other game 125 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 2: kind of situation. Are their offense disappears. 126 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: You can't have that when the bullet, No, you can't. 127 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 1: And even if the pitching does well, you know, it's 128 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: like one nutt in game two to one, and you're 129 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 1: like waiting for something bad to happen because they can't 130 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:47,919 Speaker 1: do it. You know, some guy. They can't do it 131 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: all nine innings. I mean, it happens, don't get me wrong, 132 00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,720 Speaker 1: but there's that one inning where a guy gets on 133 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: a little blooper. You know, guy makes an air all 134 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 1: of a sudden, it's first and second, you're the game's 135 00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,839 Speaker 1: one nutting, you're tied one to one. You're sitting there like, hmm, 136 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:02,719 Speaker 1: what is going to go wrong here? And you know 137 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: you need those guys to step up. They need to 138 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: win those games. You know, they can't be playing the 139 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: Angels in twelve innings you know, all the time and 140 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: finding a way to win those games. But again, they're 141 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: sneaky good. It's a matter of putting everything together. They 142 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: can pitch, and the pitching should get them there. 143 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 2: And also one note out of Jude, who covers the team, 144 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,359 Speaker 2: pointed out that these two teams have split their first 145 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:28,159 Speaker 2: ten matchups, so they're meeting up next weekend in Houston, 146 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 2: and whoever wins that season series gets another game. Essentially, 147 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 2: if it's close enough, right, if they finished tied, you 148 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 2: want to say something mean to your step brother and 149 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 2: see if it works. 150 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 1: Now we are who we thought they were. 151 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:44,599 Speaker 5: Who talk more?

Well, 223 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,200 Speaker 3: we had some big dogs, we had some beasts. We 224 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 3: had Todd telling everybody what was going on? Bro, what's 225 00:09:58,840 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 3: going What do you like? Better? 226 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 4: Astros are Mariners? 227 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 3: Mariners? I think Mariners are more a complete team. But 228 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:06,960 Speaker 3: why would you ever pick against the Astros because they 229 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 3: always prove to you that you shouldn't pick against them. So, 230 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 3: based on how my picks have been this year, go Mariners, Astros. 231 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 3: There you go Todd's. Todds followed my picks. Tod's followed 232 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 3: my picks. 233 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: I think they're more complete, but not by as much 234 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 1: as we thick. 235 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 3: If they don't make it, if they don't make the playoffs, 236 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 3: well they don't win the division. Alex Bragman should get 237 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 3: even larger of a paycheck because what he brings to 238 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 3: the to the squad just saying wins and nothing changed, 239 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,200 Speaker 3: winners win. Yeah, and they're still super competitive. But let's 240 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 3: see if they can finish straw like they usually do. 241 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, better than box scores. 242 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 2: I feel like the Mets and Phillies have met up 243 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 2: eighty times in the past past few weeks, but instead 244 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 2: of going live to our reporter on a scene, he 245 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 2: is with us in person to share the latest on 246 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 2: the Mets and the Phillies. 247 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 4: What do you have for us, mister Kratz. 248 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 3: They did it. They did the exact opposite of what 249 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 3: happened when they were in cityfield. I don't understand how 250 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 3: a team can besides the fact that the starting rotation 251 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 3: turned in four absolute gems, the Phillies like they went 252 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 3: into city field and it was everybody's paniced can't win 253 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 3: in city field. There's no chance. It was like nine 254 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 3: or ten straight that they've lost in city field. So 255 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 3: nothing that the Phillies need to do more than figure 256 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 3: out how to never play in the city field this postseason, 257 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 3: and they may not even need to play the Mets. 258 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:49,199 Speaker 3: The Mets have a lot of work to do to 259 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 3: finish out this season and make sure they make the playoffs. 260 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 3: I think they're going to, but I don't know. I 261 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:59,560 Speaker 3: don't know the disparaging marks of home field advantage for 262 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:03,319 Speaker 3: the Philly in the last I'm gonna say the last 263 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 3: two seasons, but it might even be more than that. 264 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:09,200 Speaker 3: It's like they're one hundred and forty six or something, 265 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 3: or one hundred and one now and forty six in 266 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:15,320 Speaker 3: their last fifty one hundred and fifty some games, like 267 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 3: the two seasons, it's ridiculous, including the postseason. And they 268 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,439 Speaker 3: took it to the Mets. They made the Mets. They 269 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 3: even gave the Mets a chance in the first inning. 270 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,960 Speaker 3: They came out swinging, and the Mets were like, Yeah, 271 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 3: we're gonna take this, We're gonna take this job. Hazus 272 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 3: Lozarna's out there in the seventh inning punching tickets, dialing 273 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 3: it up to ninety nine to finish out the game. 274 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 3: Like if you have to face those three lefties in 275 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 3: a playoff series right now, I get it, there's still 276 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:45,599 Speaker 3: two weeks to go. I don't I don't understand. I 277 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 3: don't understand how you can beat them because they're not 278 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 3: touching Lozardo or Rangers Suarez in in there in their history. 279 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 3: You know, against those guys, the matchup does not favor 280 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 3: the Mets, but they could go to City Field and 281 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:03,680 Speaker 3: sweep him out of the bomb. 282 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:09,599 Speaker 1: It's crazy. Texas Ranger Suarez is absolutely filthy, filthy. 283 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 3: Set himself up for a nice free agency. 284 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,200 Speaker 1: What Lozardo did yesterday. If they're giving up four runs 285 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 1: in the first inning, absolutely incredible. That's a feat. You know, 286 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:20,679 Speaker 1: forget about the Mets, they do that all the time. 287 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 1: This is something to be proud of. Man, he goes 288 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:25,439 Speaker 1: to show you going into the seventh inning, like, what 289 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 1: is going on? You gave up four runs in the 290 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:28,320 Speaker 1: first inning. 291 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 3: I give credit to Caroo Cootham, their pitching coach, jt. Realmuto, 292 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 3: and obviously Hazus Lozardo. They had a game plan of 293 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:41,839 Speaker 3: attacking him, attacking the Mets early, and they ended up 294 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 3: sticking to that game plan, and the Mets abandoned their 295 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,199 Speaker 3: game plan. They stopped swinging. He kept getting ahead. I 296 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,960 Speaker 3: think at one point it was like nineteen of the 297 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 3: twenty two batters he faced, he got first pitch strike 298 00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:00,559 Speaker 3: first inning. They were just out there swinging and it 299 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 3: was it was wild. It was a wild change of 300 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,439 Speaker 3: wild change of the you know, game plan for the Mets. 301 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 3: This is from OPTA stats. The Mets are the only 302 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 3: major league team in the modern are to score four 303 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,839 Speaker 3: plus runs in the first inning but have nobody reached 304 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 3: base the rest of the game and end up losing 305 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 3: eight any perfect game. That's crazy. It might even been 306 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 3: more than that because they scored the four and I 307 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 3: think they're still only one out right, So whatever it is, 308 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 3: play two thirds, like that's incredible, and that is not 309 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 3: that it's a demoralizing loss. I think sometimes the walk 310 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 3: offs are demoralizing losses. It is a demoralizing series. They 311 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 3: came in and they're like, if we get all four, 312 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 3: just like we did in City Field, we're in striking distance. 313 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 3: Screw the Reds, they're not getting us. Screw the Giants, 314 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 3: they're not getting us. Now, the Poems are a little sweaty. 315 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 3: They get to go home, but they get to face 316 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 3: a hot Rangers team and Jacob to Grom's thrown first 317 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 3: game like you want like a like can we get 318 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 3: a spot starter? Can we get like a triple A 319 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 3: call up? 320 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 1: Like? 321 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 3: And and even insult to injury. Walker Buller is pitching 322 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 3: the first game for the Mets this series against the Royals. 323 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 3: The Mets are like, why couldn't we have faced Walker 324 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 3: Buele for the Phillies against I'm sorry for the Phillies 325 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 3: against the Royals. Like they're like, hey, we had we 326 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 3: had nothing. They were just suffocated that lineup. 327 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 1: And listen after the game. They're not flying home, They're 328 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 1: they're in that traffic going up the turnpike. I mean 329 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 1: it's a three hour drive home? 330 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 3: Was that the worst? Was that the worst? Big League 331 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:37,080 Speaker 3: travel Philly to New York, Philly to the Mets. 332 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 1: I would go home bus.

What if you just got swept in a 346 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 3: four game series? How long is that and you're sitting 347 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 3: you going like this and you're sitting you're sitting on 348 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 3: the on the whatever, you know, the to Cony Palmyra Bridge, 349 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 3: and you're like on this bus. A lot of the 350 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 3: big dogs in Philly. They would they would helicopter. I 351 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 3: remember Cliff Lee Cole Hamil's papal bond. They would Almo 352 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 3: get a helicopter. Like I'm in the big leagues, I 353 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 3: am not riding a coach bus two seater coach bus. 354 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,240 Speaker 3: Because we would always take the train down to the 355 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 3: Nats and I think that's the biggest big league travel. 356 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 3: That's cool, way more than a charter jet. I would 357 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 3: love it. And then and then the bus up to 358 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 3: New York and I'm just like, not back to the 359 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 3: bushes tough. 360 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 1: I mean, you got space, you're not crammed. But at 361 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 1: the same time, you just if you win, it's like, oh, 362 00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: let's play some cards. 363 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 3: You're absolutely but a seed around the thing. 364 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 2: Is I mean, this is if the Sari that ended 365 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 2: up a split, the Mets are in such a different place. 366 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 4: The Phillies could have just played a part. 367 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,200 Speaker 2: In ending the season for the Mets. That's how close 368 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,400 Speaker 2: they kept it. If you're a Philly fan, in addition 369 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:19,679 Speaker 2: to not liking the Mets, you would much rather play 370 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,399 Speaker 2: the Reds or the Giants. Correct, I don't even think 371 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:22,879 Speaker 2: it's close. 372 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:24,360 Speaker 3: It's not even much. 373 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,480 Speaker 4: Rather play the Reds or the Giants. If you're the Phillies, 374 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:28,879 Speaker 4: so you played a part in making it a little 375 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:29,880 Speaker 4: nerve wracking. 376 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 3: For the Mets. 377 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,000 Speaker 2: Over the next two and a half weeks, our buddies 378 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:35,880 Speaker 2: over at the Mets Up Show, they do a lot 379 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:41,440 Speaker 2: of misery tweeting games and mark they said, the Mets 380 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 2: have lost all of these games since the start of August. 381 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,480 Speaker 2: Pain never ended. Now, if you're listening to the podcast, 382 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 2: basically what you need to know is that they're showing 383 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 2: you a lot of scenarios where you would think, oh, 384 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 2: the Mets won that game, right, and then they didn't. 385 00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:00,119 Speaker 3: This is this is indicative of the way that they 386 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 3: built their pitching roster. In my opinion, I got roasted 387 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:06,920 Speaker 3: for saying it early on. Many of us did, because 388 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,399 Speaker 3: their starting rotation was nails. And I even kind of 389 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,119 Speaker 3: retracted when I said the beginning of the season, I'm like, 390 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:17,120 Speaker 3: mayn David Stern's doing it. Now. The pressure cooker has 391 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:19,199 Speaker 3: put them in a spot where they can't kind of 392 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:23,360 Speaker 3: glide into the postseason. They have to run these horses 393 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:27,399 Speaker 3: all the way through. They did no bigger series than 394 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 3: this weekend. They're going back to City Field. There they're nails. 395 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,719 Speaker 3: They're nails at City Field. But the Rangers are coming in. 396 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 3: They're they're blowing out their pen. Everybody that they have 397 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 3: is going all three games. This is a huge series 398 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 3: for them. 399 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:45,960 Speaker 1: Oops, go ahead next, Yeah, that's the game I want 400 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 1: to watch. 401 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:48,959 Speaker 3: Oh I don't. I mean, I get it. 402 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 4: Versus tongue that's good. I think they seen tongue pitch yet. 403 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 4: But it is a fun watch. 404 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 2: First of all, he looks like he's twelve, and I 405 00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 2: can say that because you know I was twelve until 406 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 2: I was thirty. 407 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:01,880 Speaker 3: Let's so you could grow a beard. 408 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, and his delivery school.

It's the playmaker because 415 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 6: it's different. 416 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 3: You've worn shorts that are not like this, and the 417 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 3: liner sucks.

Mark Finestan saying, according to a source, 430 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:16,360 Speaker 2: the Orioles indeed at interest in White Sox assistant GM 431 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:21,200 Speaker 2: Josh Barfield for a potential front office role. But Josh said, no, 432 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 2: you would like to stay in Chicago. 433 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 3: Maybe it's because the White Sox are hot nine and 434 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 3: two in their last eleven. He sees, he sees what 435 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:33,359 Speaker 3: they have there.

So terrible, 449 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:10,439 Speaker 2: but we're getting better. So I'm riding this wave this 450 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 2: way with the Orioles. It could recover or it could 451 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 2: get ugly, And if it does get ugly, I could 452 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:16,800 Speaker 2: actually be out of a. 453 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:17,639 Speaker 4: Job pretty quickly. 454 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:17,880 Speaker 1: There. 455 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:18,680 Speaker 4: Think about it. 456 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,639 Speaker 2: I mean, now we learn that next year, even if 457 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 2: the Orioles fall apart again, probably going to roll with 458 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:25,400 Speaker 2: Michael Lace again. 459 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 4: But if you have two years of that, I mean, 460 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 4: how much can you do? 461 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,679 Speaker 2: The place will be the fan base will be up 462 00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:35,439 Speaker 2: in flames, or if they have, you know, another sinking 463 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:36,440 Speaker 2: ship like they did. 464 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 4: Last year, for the next couple of seasons. 465 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 3: It's a good job.

As you guys know, Bob Baschett for 504 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 1: sure is the guy that you want on your playoff run. 505 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:22,239 Speaker 1: But I'll go to Corey Seeger after that. I mean, 506 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 1: Corey Seeger has been I mean dynamite, you know, with 507 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:28,600 Speaker 1: the big hits, with the championship runs. Uh. If the 508 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 1: Rangers want to be a part of this and go 509 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 1: a little further, that's the guy they're gonna need. He's 510 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,359 Speaker 1: a leader. And right behind him Marcus Simmy. I mean, 511 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 1: both of those guys are a plus ball players. So 512 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 1: those two, in my opinion. 513 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 3: Kratz, I'm going to the West National League West, a 514 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 3: team that cannot score runs, has to prevent runs. Nester Cortes. 515 00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 3: Nestor Cortes is way more important to his team than 516 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 3: I think people understand only because who is starting. Who 517 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:01,960 Speaker 3: is starting your three games for the Padres right now? 518 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:05,280 Speaker 3: And you're gonna say maybe Michael King. Michael King, Absolutely, 519 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 3: he's he pitched one game, he made one start, he 520 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:11,879 Speaker 3: made one start. Somebody's not back at one start. Is 521 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 3: he better than Nesta Cortez per hundred percent? But this 522 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:20,360 Speaker 3: Padres team cannot score runs, so they have to have 523 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:25,000 Speaker 3: as much run prevention as possible. Nester Cortez isn't going 524 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 3: to give you nine innings. I'm not saying that Nester 525 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 3: Cortes is part of that rotation that is going to 526 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 3: in a four game series. That rotation has to give 527 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 3: you sixteen innings somehow. 528 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 1: Oh, he just gave up back to back to back homers, 529 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 1: Like he's done that how many times? Now? Yeah, he's good, 530 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:44,399 Speaker 1: He's not to me. I I don't think that's the 531 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 1: decided that's the biggest one in my opinion for. 532 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 3: The Padres or for you mean just on the list, well, 533 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 3: you mentioned all of them. I couldn't take anybody else. 534 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,959 Speaker 3: You were like a secret Boba Shev Marcasimion. 535 00:24:57,280 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 4: How about yeah, but we're starting playoff games. Who is 536 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 4: out of three for Padres? 537 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 2: And yes, I get it. You gotta see more from 538 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 2: Michael King. King is starting. Nick Favetta is definitely starting 539 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:09,160 Speaker 2: playoff games. 540 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 4: He's been fantastic, Cesar Darbish, I mean, cease at the 541 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 4: right time. 542 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 3: H thanks, He's a one and he's he's a player. 543 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:26,119 Speaker 3: His stats would say he is a playoff mega mega 544 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:29,200 Speaker 3: pick for them. Punch outs, his strikeouts for nine are huge. 545 00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 3: He's just not getting the innings. So that's your three starters. 546 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 3: But Michael King isn't coming back on four to five days, 547 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 3: rest right, Paveta may so Pavetta throws your first game. 548 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 4: And I have a four for you. 549 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 2: I think Darvish is four before between that guy Randy 550 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 2: Voskuez for five. 551 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 1: I forgot about for a few innings. 552 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 3: No punch outs, no punch outs. I got at a 553 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 3: career high last night against the Roxies. But but now 554 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:04,880 Speaker 3: we're talking about a five starter. Yeah, I think nestor healthy. Yeah, 555 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 3: is better than what you darbish has been giving them 556 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 3: the last three or four outings. That's a take in 557 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:13,400 Speaker 3: my opinion. 558 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm let's run. 559 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 4: I'm going darbish one. Start to agree win my season 560 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:21,359 Speaker 4: over between those two. 561 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 3: I mean, let's let's be honest. Whoever's out there is 562 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 3: out there until they get a base runner, and then 563 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:33,440 Speaker 3: they're going Mason Miller, Maury Hone, they're going Robert Suarez. 564 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 3: Like each of these dudes are giving them two innings 565 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,719 Speaker 3: a piece. So now you're six innings down, right Like 566 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:43,920 Speaker 3: in a game five, game seven, these guys arrested. 567 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 1: Get through a lineup, you get you get the five 568 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,639 Speaker 1: inning zone. Man, that's with that bullpen. Oh my god, I. 569 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:50,400 Speaker 3: Don't even think it needs to be five in a game, 570 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 3: in a game seven, in an elimination game. 571 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 2: Hold up, I'm surprised that you didn't say, Kyle Tucker, 572 00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:00,200 Speaker 2: where are the Cubs? And without prime Kyle Tucker, Now 573 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 2: I gotta look. 574 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,400 Speaker 4: I mean, he's had some postseasons where he's not really there. 575 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 4: So a lot of guys, man, I think, to be there. 576 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:09,359 Speaker 3: I just don't think the Cubs. I didn't choose Kyle 577 00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 3: Tucker because I don't think the Cubs are that good. 578 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:15,879 Speaker 3: I don't think they're built enough. I mean, shoot, what 579 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:18,160 Speaker 3: do they have like a seven and a half game 580 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:22,360 Speaker 3: lead in the wild Card. I just am afraid that 581 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 3: this team isn't as good as what isn't as good 582 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 3: as what that lineup was hitting. I mean, they're they're 583 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 3: just who's starting the three games for them? Who is 584 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 3: the who's getting the seventh or sixth, seventh, eighth inning 585 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:44,680 Speaker 3: out of their bullpen? Is Polincia gonna come back? Like? 586 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 3: All that stuff is a lot of question marks for 587 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 3: this team. To me, I think the Padres are the 588 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 3: better team. I think the Padres are the better, better 589 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:53,479 Speaker 3: than the Cups. 590 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 1: How about Rokie Suzaki. 591 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 3: No, not all. 592 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,880 Speaker 4: How about Trey Turner. I'm surprised you guys, Well. 593 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 3: I just think he's going to come back. 594 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:04,200 Speaker 4: You're going to come back, and I think they have 595 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 4: pieces to fill in seasons though where you're like, where's 596 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:08,120 Speaker 4: Trey at? I mean, it's the same with Kyle. I'm 597 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 4: looking back at numbers. 598 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 2: For Kyle Tucker twenty twenty three postseason al ds, you know, 599 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 2: five hundred isho ps. Same with the Alcs last year 600 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:24,640 Speaker 2: in the AL wild Card. He didn't do anything his career. 601 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 2: He's had a lot of postseason time already. Kyle Tucker 602 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:29,239 Speaker 2: two hundred and forty seven played appearances two twenty nine 603 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 2: to three nine three seventy six slash. 604 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:33,160 Speaker 4: I mean that's not good for a start. 605 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:35,600 Speaker 3: That's not good if if you're leading on and the 606 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 3: Cubs are leading on that for a start. I don't 607 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 3: think the Phillies are leading on Trey Turner coming back, 608 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 3: like the Cubs will be leading on Kyle Tucker. So 609 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 3: Kyle Tucker would be more important. I think I think 610 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 3: Edmundo Sosa fills in nicely. If you have a writing 611 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:51,480 Speaker 3: on the mound, I think Stott fills it nicely. It 612 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 3: at short stop, yeah, I think Bo's the guy boa is. 613 00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 3: I think both by far the back. 614 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 2: And looking like he's been this year, and I'm the 615 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 2: contact part. I mean that's the identity for the Blue Jays, 616 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 2: and he's their shortstop. There's I mean, I know you 617 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 2: know Trey is too, but for Bow, I just think that, hey, 618 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 2: this guy's probably gonna make contact. I think he's got 619 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 2: some clutch postseason moments in his future. 620 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 3: Here's the thing with Bo. When you're planning a scout 621 00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 3: report and probably from now until we go to the playoffs, 622 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 3: I'm gonna say this six more times. Yep, how do 623 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 3: you game plan big Lee pitchers as much as Todd 624 00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 3: found out, throw strikes around the zone and bo is 625 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 3: not afraid of hitting a pitch this far off at 626 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 3: ninety five the other way? How do you tell Bigley pitcher, 627 00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 3: I get it, you're nibbling. I need you to throw 628 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 3: it this far off and he'll still chase. They just 629 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 3: aren't programmed to do that. And I don't think I 630 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 3: just I think he's on a heater right now. I 631 00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 3: think he is maybe the most integral part of any 632 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 3: team right now. 633 00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 2: That's in the playoffs, and it's the all fields with 634 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:00,560 Speaker 2: the knocks, steaks. 635 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 3: Steaks win in the playoffs because stats, stats go out 636 00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 3: the window. How many times in the postseason were you 637 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 3: pissed off at an zero for three when we won? 638 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:09,720 Speaker 1: Never? 639 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 3: Stats don't matter. Runs matter, get. 640 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 1: It, runs matter, Wings matter? 641 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:19,360 Speaker 2: All right, We let us know your thoughts if we're 642 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:22,120 Speaker 2: missing someone that we mentioned. If you want to yell 643 00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 2: at Krats for throwing nester quertez out there early. 644 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 4: You can. I did Todd handled it for you.

And that's why 728 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:14,719 Speaker 3: he's gotten, you know, deeper into games and stuff like that, 729 00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 3: and he stayed healthy. But that's a fun stat like 730 00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:22,840 Speaker 3: chase chase rate, not not swinging miss chase rate, which 731 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 3: is early on.

But when 732 00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:29,560 Speaker 3: you're intimidated by a pictuer like the Grom, guys will chase. 733 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:31,440 Speaker 3: Guys have to they have to get it going a 734 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:31,839 Speaker 3: little bit. 735 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:32,600 Speaker 1: Yeah. 736 00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:34,359 Speaker 2: I could be totally off on this, but you know 737 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 2: how there are some guys where like you better get 738 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:37,759 Speaker 2: him in the first pitch or too of the ab 739 00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:39,960 Speaker 2: or you're screwed with it. One of those where they're like, 740 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:42,319 Speaker 2: I'm swinging early pretty much. 741 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 3: I mean, I think that's any like elite level pitcher, 742 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:49,279 Speaker 3: like you gotta cause he's gonna get attack you early. 743 00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:52,799 Speaker 3: But twenty three percent chase rate. That means he's not 744 00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:55,880 Speaker 3: thrown many Maybe like make my guy throw a strike 745 00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:59,480 Speaker 3: or something.
