Speaker 1: All right, that's it the failure. Oh wow, talk, that's all.

2
00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:08,960
Speaker 1: It was Wednesday, May twenty ninth, and the Yankees were

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,360
Speaker 1: taking on the Angels in game two of a three

4
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:14,520
Speaker 1: game set. Luis Heel was on the mound and trying

5
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:18,640
Speaker 1: to continue his recent dominance, and Anthony Vopie was trying

6
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:20,720
Speaker 1: to make it twenty one straight games with a hit.

20
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:21,759
Speaker 1: heart attack commnut it with Clay Holmes. Welcome back, everybody,

21
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:25,560
Speaker 1: Welcome back. I was just watching some training footage of

22
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 1: Mike Tyson to distract me. When Clay Holmes was in there,

23
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,319
Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to fight him, But anyway, Yankees hang

24
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,759
Speaker 1: on to win after midnight now in the East. Thanks

25
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 1: to those of you who have stayed up to catch

26
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 1: the podcast live. I appreciate it. I had a bit

27
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,639
Speaker 1: of a stomach issue last night and throughout the day today,

28
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 1: and Clay Holmes did not make it much better. But

29
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 1: to the people who are watching this tomorrow and maybe

30
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 1: went to bed a little bit early, you missed another

31
00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 1: outstanding performance by Luis Heal. We had a Little League

32
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 1: home run from Anthony Volpi on a triple where the

33
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,920
Speaker 1: throw ended up going into the camera. Well, he's got

34
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,359
Speaker 1: a twenty one game hit streak now, by the way,

35
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 1: he went two for five, and every day he creeps

36
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: closer and closer to that three hundred batting average. Now.

37
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:24,079
Speaker 1: I know batting average doesn't matter anymore according to the experts,

38
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 1: but you look at the player he was last year

39
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:28,919
Speaker 1: where he hit two nine, and you look at the

40
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 1: guy who's hitting two eighty eight this year, right, almost

41
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 1: eighty points difference, and he's just a completely transformed hitter,

42
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 1: very consistent. I'd love to see him get the thirty games.

43
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,639
Speaker 1: Let's put away all the stuff of he's gonna chase

44
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,519
Speaker 1: down to Maggio's no chance of that happening. But thirty

45
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 1: games he could do that, and I hope he does.

46
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 1: Hits freakin' matter and I will take that to my grave.

47
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:57,959
Speaker 1: Yankees didn't do much with Tyler Anderson. Mister Anderson, he

48
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,919
Speaker 1: is not a great pitcher. He walked six guys tonight.

49
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:04,240
Speaker 1: Yankees could not make him pay. Ton of little tiny

50
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 1: mistakes by the Yankees in the past few days, and

51
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 1: they had some more today. In Game one, we had

52
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 1: the send by Rojas on the play where Glaber got

53
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 1: thrown out at home. We had the error from Rizzo. Tonight,

54
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: we had Stanton swinging at the first pitch after two

55
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,519
Speaker 1: walks to load the bases and it led to a

56
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:26,679
Speaker 1: double play. Obviously it was a weird call, as you know,

57
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 1: the interference play. There's a pop up at second base.

58
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:33,519
Speaker 1: We'll talk about it. But Aaron Boone got ejected. That

59
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 1: helped Anderson out. So honestly, though, I'm not sure with

60
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 1: Stanton what was worth what was worse swinging at that

61
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 1: first pitch tonight with the bases loaded after two walks

62
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 1: or the pitch he swung at last night that missed

63
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 1: the strike zone not by inches, no, not by inches,

64
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 1: but by feet. But thankfully the Yankees had Louis heel tonight.

65
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 1: Let's break it down, let's go, let's get it going.

66
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 1: The Yankees got screwed in the first inning. Should have

67
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 1: been a simple infield fly rule. Bases loaded. Stanton pops

68
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 1: up to second base and Soto was trying to get

69
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 1: back to second and the fielder backed right into him,

70
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 1: and somehow Sodo got called out for that. I guess

71
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 1: it's the letter of the law. But there was a

72
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 1: play that was similar to that last week and MLB

73
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 1: said that the runner should have been called out, but

74
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,040
Speaker 1: a bunch of crap. We did get a voicemail out

75
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,600
Speaker 1: of it. Aaron Boone got ejected two out into the

76
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,159
Speaker 1: ball game. But let's play that voicemail.

77
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:33,480
Speaker 2: Man, did we get screwed in their first inning? Or

78
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 2: what what is Stanton doing? We do this time and

79
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 2: time again, and it drives me nuts. The pitcher just

80
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 2: walked Soto and judge, we got bases loaded. He's on

81
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:44,920
Speaker 2: the ropes.

82
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:49,599
Speaker 1: Why are you swinging at the first pitch? George's stepping up.

83
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 1: Lest I got a lot of problems with you, o people. Amen, brother, Amen,

84
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 1: Yankees dent at home plate, first solo home run from

85
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 1: Alex Verdugo. I would love to show you the highlight

86
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 1: on full screen, but MLB won't let me. I'm working

87
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 1: to get that resolve. Hopefully we'll have that back up

88
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 1: at some point. Eighth home run of the season, great

89
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:20,840
Speaker 1: bat flip. Look, I love Verdugo's personality. I think he's

90
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:22,440
Speaker 1: a great fit for this team. I've seen a lot

91
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,040
Speaker 1: of people saying, Oh, you gotta resign him. You can't

92
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 1: let him walk. Look, it's gonna come down to what

93
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 1: the Yankees do with Sodo. If the Yankees signed Sodo,

94
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 1: you can kiss Verdugo goodbye. I'm sorry, they're not gonna

95
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 1: pay him now. If Soto goes to the Mets or

96
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 1: somewhere else, then yeah, Verdugo's back on the table. He'll

97
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 1: probably be the you know, Condolen's Prize or whatever our

98
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 1: consolation prize. Sorry, it's it's late, folks, it's late. But

99
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 1: DJ Lemayhew had a really great day. Defensively, he made

100
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 1: a jumping catch at third base on a line drive.

101
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 1: He made an awesome sliding catch on the pop up.

102
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 1: His first hit was on a ground ball that hit

103
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 1: Anthony Rizzo, who was running. I think Rizzo might have

104
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 1: stepped in front of it to kind of block a

105
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 1: double play. But if the ball hits the runner, the

106
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:09,600
Speaker 1: hitter gets a hit. And Rizzo got called out. But

107
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 1: just a weird, weird play. I think it might have

108
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:15,600
Speaker 1: been intentional. I was looking at Rizzo and I think

109
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 1: he ran right into it, or at least didn't care

110
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 1: if he got hit. But you know, DJ looks good

111
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 1: at third base, so we'll hope he gets the bat going.

112
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 1: But let's talk about the man of the hour, mister

113
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 1: Louis Heel. Another fantastic outing from Luis struck out the

114
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 1: side and the fourth inning and from there it was on.

115
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 1: It was one of the more dominant innings that I've

116
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 1: seen him throw. Fastball was sitting at ninety eight at

117
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,280
Speaker 1: the top of the zone, and the Angels just had

118
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 1: very little chance tonight. He worked six and a third

119
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 1: innings of one hit, shutout ball before he served up

120
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 1: an opposite field home run. But still, you have to

121
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 1: say it's a pretty good day when you begin the

122
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 1: game with a two point one to one ERA, and

123
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 1: when you leave the game it's even lower. Final line

124
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 1: eight magnificent two hits, one run, two walks, nine strikeouts.

125
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 1: On the season, eleven games started, one point nine to

126
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:12,120
Speaker 1: nine ERA, sixty three and a third innings, seventy nine strikeouts,

127
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 1: thirty one walks, and he has filled in admirably for

128
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 1: Garrett Cole. You couldn't ask for anything more. But it's

129
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 1: getting to that point now where Garrett Cole is approaching

130
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 1: a return, and when he does, I think that there's

131
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 1: a high probability that Luis Heal is gonna either go on,

132
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 1: you know, maybe a short iel trip, or go down

133
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 1: in the minor leagues, or go to the bullpen because

134
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 1: he's just been so good that he's racking up all

135
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 1: of these innings and they don't want him throwing one

136
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 1: hundred and seventy one hundred and eighty innings, I promise you.

137
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 1: They say there's no innings limit, but you can't take

138
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 1: that at face value. They see now that they have

139
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 1: a future ACE and they're gonna want to get maximum

140
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 1: value out of that, so they're gonna want to be

141
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 1: very protective over him. I want him starting in the playoffs,

142
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 1: but to do that he's gonna have to be, you know, fresh,

143
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 1: so they're gonna have to probably sit him down for

144
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: you know, sometime in July or August, for let's say,

145
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,040
Speaker 1: four weeks, either in the bullpen or in the minor leagues,

146
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 1: or on the il or whatever, a little vacation, you know,

147
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 1: little trip to what's it Sandals or whatever, you know,

148
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 1: take your gofriend, and then you start working him back

149
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 1: in September. You give him a couple of two inning stints,

150
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 1: three inning stint, and then you know, hopefully get him

151
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 1: up to five innings by the time the playoffs start.

152
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:44,880
Speaker 1: But phenomenal, phenomenal outing from Luisia Grant Cecilli pointing out

153
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 1: that they did make Dave Righetti a closer at one point.

154
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,679
Speaker 1: I mean they've done that. You know, Pitchers go back

155
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:51,599
Speaker 1: and forth between the rotation and the bullpen. It's not

156
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:55,679
Speaker 1: as unusual. Everybody likes to point out the Java Chamberlain situation,

157
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 1: the JABA rules. You know, Java came up through the

158
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: minor leagues as a starting pitch. A lot of people

159
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 1: forget that, and he was absolutely lights out, but they

160
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 1: transferred him to the bullpen because he was up against

161
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 1: his innings limit and then what did he do? He

162
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:11,839
Speaker 1: completely dominated in the last couple of months of the season.

163
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 1: I think he had thirty eight scoreless innings or something

164
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:17,560
Speaker 1: like that, or zero point three eighty are it's late

165
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:19,679
Speaker 1: at night, but the number zero point three to eight

166
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 1: is sticking in my head for some reason. But he

167
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 1: ended up succumbing to the midges in Cleveland that year,

168
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:28,599
Speaker 1: but he was outstanding out of the pen, and that

169
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 1: kind of created this dichotomy in the clubhouse, in the

170
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 1: front office as to well, do we make him a

171
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 1: starter or do we make him a reliever? And ultimately

172
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 1: that screwed him up. They tried him as a starter,

173
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 1: they tried him as a reliever. He ended up having

174
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,319
Speaker 1: a shoulder issue. He ended up having Tommy John surgery,

175
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 1: ended up gaining one hundred pounds. So job, it didn't

176
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 1: work out. But I think Louis Heal's gonna be a

177
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:52,199
Speaker 1: different situation. I think that they're gonna probably need him

178
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 1: in the bullpen for a little bit and then when

179
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 1: the playoffs roll around, they're gonna ramp him up as

180
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 1: a starter. You can't have that kind of starting pitching,

181
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:05,840
Speaker 1: you know, on the bench in the playoffs. So Brandon

182
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 1: McCollum says, cardiac Clay strikes again. Beat me to it.

183
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 1: Clay Holmes came in for the ninth and immediately put

184
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 1: two runners on base. A nice play by Verdugo that

185
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,000
Speaker 1: is not going to be talked about. It's going to

186
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,199
Speaker 1: be overlooked. But there was a shot down the line.

187
00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,319
Speaker 1: He got over and got to it quickly and made

188
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,160
Speaker 1: the throw in. He actually overthrew the cutoff man and

189
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: over through second base, but he got there quickly and

190
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 1: he held the runner at first. That might have saved

191
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 1: the game from being tied. So nice job. Holmes ended

192
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 1: up giving a couple of p rod ground balls up

193
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 1: but got the save and the Yankees hang on to win.

194
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,440
Speaker 1: Richard C says, so, Joma Chamberlain and Phil Hughes were

195
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 1: supposed to be Randy Johnson and Kurt don't remember they

196
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 1: had or don't forget they had Ian Kennedy coming up

197
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 1: around the same time. Who was another? Uh you were thinking,

198
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 1: like remember with the Mets with Generation k That's kind

199
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,439
Speaker 1: of what I was thinking at that point. But you

200
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:13,839
Speaker 1: knew it would be too good to be true. You

201
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 1: knew that even at that point if one of these

202
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,199
Speaker 1: guys panned out, it would be great, and ultimately I

203
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 1: think Phil Hughes probably did the best with the Yankees.

204
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,679
Speaker 1: You know, it was critical in that nine playoffs. Uh,

205
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 1: and then you know Jaba had some good moments. Ian

206
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,560
Speaker 1: Kennedy ended up getting traded, but he brought back Curtis Granderson.

207
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:34,840
Speaker 1: I believe in that deal. I believe it was Ian

208
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 1: Kennedy to Arizona, maybe Max Scherzer to Detroit, and then

209
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,719
Speaker 1: Curtis Granderson to the Yankees. I believe that was it.

210
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 1: There might have been more people involved, but Belt tonight

211
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,200
Speaker 1: goes to the man of the hour, the Real Deal.

212
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,679
Speaker 1: W lb w F says, my odds money is on

213
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,960
Speaker 1: Louis Heel for a Cy Young Award and a lot

214
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 1: of people saying the Real Deal. I'm glad to see

215
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,160
Speaker 1: that nickname is catching on. I called him Luis the

216
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:13,199
Speaker 1: Real Deal Heel literally after his first start, and the

217
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 1: reason that I knew immediately that he was going to

218
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 1: be a fantastic arm was just what he has what

219
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:25,240
Speaker 1: scouts would call easy gas. Right, it doesn't look like

220
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:29,319
Speaker 1: he's putting that much effort into his delivery, but the

221
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:33,679
Speaker 1: ball just explodes out of his hand and he was

222
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,480
Speaker 1: ninety nine one hundred miles an hour that night. Now

223
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 1: we knew he didn't have a ton of great breaking

224
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 1: stuff at that point. He has made improvements in that area.

225
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:45,200
Speaker 1: The change up has been absolutely wicked. Now I can

226
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 1: pull up his Baseball Savant statistics, but they're not going

227
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,079
Speaker 1: to be up to date through tonight. But I want

228
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,679
Speaker 1: you guys to take a look at Louis Heel. So

229
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:59,559
Speaker 1: hang on a second. I've been saying for years that

230
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,000
Speaker 1: this I was gonna be a stud, and I'm glad

231
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 1: that he is finally vindicating me because it's taken a while. So,

232
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 1: I mean, he's pretty much read across the board. Pitching

233
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:14,319
Speaker 1: run value ninety ninth percentile, fastball run value ninety fifth percentile,

234
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,680
Speaker 1: breaking ball run value seventy ninth percentile, off speed value

235
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: ninety six percentile. I'm not gonna go through all of

236
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:23,959
Speaker 1: them because it would be repetitive, but Jesus man, look

237
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 1: at these numbers. This guy is incredible and he finishes

238
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:32,599
Speaker 1: with a one point nine to one ERA. He is

239
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:35,080
Speaker 1: six and one. Actually did he did he pick up

240
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:41,960
Speaker 1: his seventh win tonight? Let's find out real quick. They

241
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 1: haven't listened. Yeah, He's seven and one with a one

242
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 1: point nine to nine ERA. Just incredible, incredible. I mean,

243
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 1: I don't I don't see how you can take this

244
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 1: guy out of the rotation. But they're gonna have to.

245
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 1: They're gonna have to. I'm glad I'm not the one

246
00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 1: who has to tell him, because you know, that could

247
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 1: get a little bit scary. He's a big dude Zionistunna says,

248
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 1: is this technically his rookie season even though he's had

249
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,439
Speaker 1: major league service, Yes, he is still a rookie. He

250
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,839
Speaker 1: is still eligible for the Rookie of the Year award.

251
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:16,240
Speaker 1: Would not shock me if he won it. But there

252
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:18,959
Speaker 1: are some other good rookies in the major leagues. The

253
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 1: Orioles got a number of guys, and it seems like

254
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 1: the Orioles call up somebody every other day who makes

255
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 1: an impact. Orioles a game and a half back. Yankees

256
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 1: now thirty eight and nineteen. If they win tomorrow, they

257
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 1: win the series and they get back to twenty games

258
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: over five hundred, and then they take on the San

259
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 1: Francisco Giants, which the Giants are not great. They have

260
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 1: had some injury problems. They are twenty nine and twenty eight,

261
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 1: but they're not horrible. They've definitely had some injuries. They

262
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 1: got Blake Snell back, he got off to a really

263
00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 1: tough start, had an eril over eleven and had to

264
00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:00,160
Speaker 1: go on the IL. And he basically came out out

265
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 1: and said in an interview, and we said this on

266
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 1: foul Territory the other day, that you know, spring training

267
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 1: is super important for a big leaguer. Even though you

268
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 1: think you're throwing well and you think that you know

269
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 1: you're in shape and all that stuff, it's just not

270
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 1: the same as facing major league getters. Thrown against high

271
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 1: school kids and college kids. You need to face major

272
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 1: league pitchers and that should be a lesson for these

273
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 1: guys to sign sooner and not hold out for top

274
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 1: dollar into you know, March. You know what, one hundred

275
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 1: and fifty million dollar contract have killed him now. But

276
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 1: you know, I think that's a blessing in disguise because

277
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 1: if the Yankees had given him that money, Luisia would

278
00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:45,200
Speaker 1: be dominating Scranton wilkes Bury right now. And I think

279
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:50,080
Speaker 1: that Darth Darthius hays it right. He says Heal deserves

280
00:15:50,120 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 1: a gift basket from our hitters. After tonight absolutely. Chris

281
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:05,720
Speaker 1: Schmitt says, Rookie of the Year and Cy Young could

282
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 1: be in hell's future. I don't know if he's gonna

283
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,720
Speaker 1: throw enough innings to get Cy Young. He's definitely gonna

284
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 1: have to sit down at some point, so I just

285
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 1: don't I don't see that being realistic. But Rookie of

286
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 1: the Year, he's got a real shot. But Volpi absolutely

287
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 1: on fire. He has been tearing it up, creeping up

288
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 1: towards three hundred, as someone mentioned, And I don't know

289
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 1: if he's gonna hit three hundred for the year, but

290
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 1: the fact that he's even close means that he'll get

291
00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 1: there at some point. He's still young, he's still getting better.

292
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 1: He's hitting line drives now. You don't see him taking

293
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 1: that home run swing all the time. You know he

294
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 1: has power and he'll run into a hangar and destroy it.

295
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 1: But right now he's hitting the ball line to line.

296
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 1: You know, he's taking the ball down the right field line.

297
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 1: If you put one inside, he'll rip it down the

298
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,960
Speaker 1: left field line. He's being aggressive on the basis and

299
00:16:56,200 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 1: he made some outstanding plays on defense tonight. So I'm

300
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:03,840
Speaker 1: just super impressed by what we've seen from Anthony Volpe

301
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:08,320
Speaker 1: super impressed. Uh and Requinick says, VOPI is becoming an

302
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 1: on base machine. That is absolutely what you want from

303
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 1: your leadoff man. You're a smart mother, that's right. Zuzu

304
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,479
Speaker 1: Boy says did Derek Pitch. I pitched a little bit.

305
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:26,200
Speaker 1: I pitched a little bit, but my arm fell off. Literally,

306
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 1: It's just it's this is a fake arm. It's not

307
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:32,560
Speaker 1: ain't real. But josephs Dream says, FYI, heal is not

308
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:36,440
Speaker 1: leaving the rotation. We'll see, We'll see. I would bet

309
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 1: you at some point he will. They don't want this

310
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:40,960
Speaker 1: guy throwing one hundred and eighty two hundred innings. They don't.

311
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:47,119
Speaker 1: I mean they they're they're gonna protect him. But anyway,

312
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,120
Speaker 1: all right, let's wrap it up. Take a to you more.

313
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 1: I gotta get out of here. And why says nice

314
00:17:54,280 --> 00:18:01,160
Speaker 1: to go to bed with a wind. Michael Pascioni says,

315
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:03,719
Speaker 1: why do they have to sit it? It's a health thing.

316
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 1: Guy's coming back from Tommy John. You don't want to

317
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 1: push it too hard.

318
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:12,400
Speaker 2: Game over, man, Game over.

319
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:14,880
Speaker 1: Aj Thomas and says he'd like to see a six

320
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 1: man rotation and let Cole ease into it and eventually

321
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 1: move Nestor to the bullpen. I don't think that's gonna happen,

322
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:24,359
Speaker 1: but it wouldn't shock me if that's the way the

323
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:29,480
Speaker 1: Yankees go. Francis Heally says Volpi is an all Star. Agree,

324
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,920
Speaker 1: and then Dylan Plays brings up a good point, says

325
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,159
Speaker 1: Volpi's line drive in the eighth inning would have been

326
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 1: gone at Yankee Stadium, and he hit one to the

327
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 1: warning track, so you know, he was just scorching the

328
00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:48,200
Speaker 1: ball tonight. And I like that he's using right field.

329
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 1: You know, a lot of our hitters are just way

330
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,440
Speaker 1: more successful when they're taking the ball to right field,

331
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,360
Speaker 1: driving it with authority and not trying to come out

332
00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 1: of their shoes and pull everything like Labor Torres is

333
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:03,040
Speaker 1: doing right now. But all right, ladies and gentlemen, appreciate it.

334
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:07,960
Speaker 1: Comes some comments about my dead arm here, and I

335
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:11,880
Speaker 1: just thought of that line from Major League New Haircut,

336
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:15,400
Speaker 1: same dead arm. All right, ladies and gentlemen. Hopefully we'll

337
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,920
Speaker 1: be back with highlights at some point in the near future.

338
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 1: I'm working to get it resolved. If that happens, you'll

339
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,320
Speaker 1: be the first to know, I promise. But until then,

340
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,919
Speaker 1: you know, we can roll with the individual player highlights

341
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,119
Speaker 1: like we had tonight and make our way and I

342
