Last time the Mets digo 33 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 2: with Minnesota, Pee Alonzo hit the longest home run on 34 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:17,959 Speaker 2: human record. Not gonna check the data on that, but 35 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:19,679 Speaker 2: it was long simm run human record.

And 39 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 2: he had another long win this series. So I think 40 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 2: I did win the estimate because of that.

So after we're done in Chicago, we flew 146 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: out the next morning to Atlanta, enemy territory out in 147 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,479 Speaker 1: the battery in Atlanta, Georgia to watch the Braves versus 148 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,280 Speaker 1: the Pirates, and unfortunately, the Braves really just i mean, 149 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 1: beat the living crap out of the Pirates. Wasn't even 150 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 1: a close game for a second, they're pretty dominant and uh, 151 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: well not in Atlanta. Lanta was fun too. They're a 152 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 1: little more country down there, a little more yee haul, 153 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 1: which is not necessarily me and James vibe if you 154 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,119 Speaker 1: could ever take a guess that we're not yeehaw guys, 155 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: but Atlanta, Like, I gotta say, it's a nice stadium. 156 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 1: I think I said b at the time. I think 157 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put Truist to a like if I was 158 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: ranking it, it's like an a t Yeer stadium. Because 159 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 1: now having gone to Angel Stadium for Game three, which 160 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,839 Speaker 1: is when you left Angel Stadium is just like fine, 161 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 1: that one to me feels like a bee Like. It's 162 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 1: nice enough, you can watch a game there, there's some 163 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: cool things, but at the end of the day. 164 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 3: It feels older. 165 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 1: It feels older despite only being I think, like twenty 166 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,039 Speaker 1: thirty years old. So that's why I'm going to bump 167 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 1: up Atlanta a little bit. What do you think about Atlanta? 168 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 3: Hot Atlanta? 169 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I hate that I loved it so much. 170 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 2: It's kind of the best way to describe it. It's 171 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 2: like it's definitely strange, like we got a different experience 172 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,720 Speaker 2: of it because we were just there to go to 173 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 2: the baseball so we didn't really care about being in Atlanta. 174 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 2: Besides shout out at ELT's Wings. Elta's Wings was the 175 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 2: legendary wing spot for us. We went there this straight 176 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 2: from the airport with our luggage and that was just incredible. 177 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 2: Lemon Pepper shout out them. But if I was like 178 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 2: trying to spend time in Landa, if I was a 179 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 2: resident or a citizen, I would probably be frustrated that 180 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 2: the baseball team was thirty miles away and like in 181 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 2: an area that was just purely built solely for tourism. 182 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,279 Speaker 2: But as one of those tourists there just for the baseball, 183 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,719 Speaker 2: it was great because you can get to the stadium 184 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 2: easily from hotels. There's tons of food and drink coppers 185 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 2: outside the stadium, an eclectic batch of people, bars, live music. 186 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 2: Just yeah, experiencing the South is a strange thing for me. 187 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 2: I was I couldn't even remember the last time I 188 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 2: was actually in the American South. I think it had 189 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,359 Speaker 2: been like a couple like probably two ish years, so 190 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 2: I was like, oh, this is this is I've been 191 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 2: reculture shocked, but it's still a really fun time really 192 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 2: beautiful stadium, and I just the stadium was really nice. 193 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 1: It really was nice. 194 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 2: Great views, good chairs, good food options. Those Braves fans 195 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 2: love their Braves, man, they love that team. We should 196 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 2: talk about the trip more, maybe a little bit after 197 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 2: as we kind of like get a little wacky, but 198 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 2: we should get over this game. We've already made you, 199 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 2: guys endure like six seven minutes of talk that didn't 200 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 2: get to Mets baseball, So we're sorry about that. But 201 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 2: onto Mets baseball series in Minnesota again, first time Mets 202 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 2: have been there in four years, and starting out Friday night, 203 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 2: it was all of these games were kind of like 204 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 2: this weird like tug of war, and I feel like 205 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 2: the mess been playing these games with good teams a 206 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 2: lot recently. It felt a hair like the Rangers series 207 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 2: where he had really good chances to win, but you 208 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 2: weren't really able to get over the hump. And again 209 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 2: that partially that's just because you're playing good team on 210 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 2: the other side and just little things going the other way. 211 00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 2: But this game started code Sanga probably his most difficult 212 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 2: collection of innings that we've seen from him in months. 213 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 2: First two winnings of the game, he threw sixty pitches 214 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 2: and had three walks, and it was like, oh man, 215 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 2: maybe this could be the end of all this. Code 216 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 2: sang a streak and Twins also completely stacked the lineup 217 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 2: with lefties. It was over two. It was like about 218 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 2: two thirds lefties. So and that's not something that is 219 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 2: really born out so far in code. 220 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 3: Astistics this year. 221 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 2: He actually has pretty normal splits. He has actually better 222 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 2: splits against lefties, and most of his pitches I means 223 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 2: best pitch. The ghost fork is like a vertical mover, 224 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 2: so it really wouldn't leave you believe, but I think 225 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 2: it still is no matter why you're righty facing a lefty. 226 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 2: I don't care about split stats. I think there will 227 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 2: be a little difficult. But he really pulled his nose 228 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 2: up and just got really, really tough to close this 229 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 2: game out. Wound up with six innings in two, going 230 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 2: six innings after having sixty pitches through two and only 231 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 2: allowing two earned runs. 232 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 1: And he did all that in spite of absolutely having 233 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 1: the least feel for his ghost fork he's had the 234 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 1: entire season. It only got five swings from the Minnesota 235 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: Twins his entire game. Only nine percent of those pitches 236 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,199 Speaker 1: were in the zone and only fifteen percent were chased. 237 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 1: So as his best pitch wasn't really able to command, 238 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: he spiked a bunch of them, just a lot of 239 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: them were really not competitive. The twins could really easily 240 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 1: spin on it, could probably see they come a mile away. 241 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 3: A couple of them bounced like fifty five to fifty 242 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:07,559 Speaker 3: seven feet. 243 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 2: But for that pitch not to have worked against an 244 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 2: offense as one of the better ones in the American League, 245 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 2: if not all of baseball wentz clicking, especially as it 246 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 2: has been now with Carlos Kray heating up and Royce Lewis, 247 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 2: Jorge planc go back in the lineup and classic James 248 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 2: Jinks Alex Cure offense. We weren't going to see it 249 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 2: was activated just before the game. Mark sane, We're going 250 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 2: to see Joey gallop on the il just before the game. 251 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 2: He had it, could I saying it even despite like 252 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 2: really struggling early on, he just the location just came 253 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 2: in a third inning again and everything looks fine. Yeah, 254 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 2: and I mean talking about the growth of code, I sang, 255 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 2: We've seen how well. 256 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 1: He's pitched this year. This felt very similar to beginning 257 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:43,679 Speaker 1: of the season, maybe like a game like Oakland dreven 258 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 1: San Francisco where he didn't have his stuff early and 259 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,199 Speaker 1: he just he couldn't get through. He couldn't push through 260 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 1: the fifth inning, couldn't get to the sixth, thitting, whatever 261 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: it was. He struggled. It felt hard this one. Like 262 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: you said, there was a struggle at the beginning, but 263 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:56,599 Speaker 1: he was able to settle in. And I think for 264 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 1: Mets fans looking forward to next year, being able to 265 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 1: see Code I saying, do that something that we saw 266 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 1: that he struggled with earlier on the year. We know 267 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 1: he has the stuff, We know he has all the 268 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 1: ability in the world, but like that mental side to 269 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,200 Speaker 1: be able to kind of get through that sixteen pitches 270 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 1: through two winnings is so many, so many, Like there's 271 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 1: no world where he should be able to make it 272 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: six innings. But he was able to. He's been able 273 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: to bear down, and that's something I think for Code 274 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 1: Code I Singer's development, it's gonna end up being pretty. 275 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,839 Speaker 2: Huge, definitely, And talked about Kasanga walking three battles in 276 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 2: his first two winnings. He only wound up walking won 277 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 2: the rest of the game, and those four walks were 278 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 2: code Asanga. That's the first time he's walked four batteries 279 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,719 Speaker 2: in the game since June tenth, three months from the 280 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 2: time of recording the September tenth and that was the 281 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:36,440 Speaker 2: game in Pittsburgh where the Mets did have a bit 282 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:37,960 Speaker 2: of a trying series, but Code I did pitch a 283 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 2: gem in the middle of it. So think about the 284 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 2: guy who we know has struggled with command, who probably 285 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 2: is to walk in few too many guys per night, 286 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:46,439 Speaker 2: and an especially comparatively to being like a mid rotation 287 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 2: guy versus an ACE level player. The first time doing 288 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 2: that in three months is kind of astounding. And we're 289 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 2: still on the street going all the way back to 290 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 2: June seventeenth. Since Code I, Sanga has given up allowed 291 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 2: more three earned runs in the game. So even the 292 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 2: day in the second a couple of times a couple 293 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 2: of episodes were saying this now a day where he 294 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 2: doesn't have his best stuff, the command's not really there, 295 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:06,559 Speaker 2: facing a good line of facing a lot of hitters 296 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 2: of the opposite handedness, and quod I sang a guess 297 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 2: the room and gives the Mets a chance to win. 298 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: No Coda as a dog, we know that, like I 299 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: think it's officials. He's a dog, He's got the dog 300 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:17,679 Speaker 1: in him. He's gonna be a very very good pitcher 301 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:19,959 Speaker 1: for this team for many, many years. And uh, even 302 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:21,440 Speaker 1: though it didn't necessarily go to the Mets way in 303 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 1: this game. I mean, you guys know us, we're gonna 304 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 1: pick positives out of every single game. That's what we've 305 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 1: done forever and ever. So Code I sang again a 306 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 1: positive start despite starting off rough. That being said, Sean 307 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 1: Reid Foley, who has been so great this year, finally 308 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:36,680 Speaker 1: got hit, finally came back a little bit to Earth. 309 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:37,959 Speaker 1: Still got a lot of faith in him because the 310 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: stuff has looked really good. But the Twins just were 311 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: able to get to him in this one. And that's 312 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 1: gonna happen. When you're a reliever, it happens to the 313 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 1: best relievers on the planet. Sometimes, like Manuel Classe has 314 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 1: had a really hard time getting guys out at points 315 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 1: this year. He was disgusting last year. It's just gonna happen. 316 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:52,839 Speaker 2: Josh Hayler was unpitchable for two months last year, but 317 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 2: the rest of his career besides that, has been one 318 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 2: of the best relief pitchers ever. 319 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: On a per rading basis. Yeah, and just it's just regression. 320 00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,440 Speaker 1: It's a general regression. There's been a lot of guys 321 00:11:59,480 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 1: on base. 322 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 2: And found way to get out of it, found ways 323 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 2: where guys hit the ball hard, but they found gloves. 324 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 2: This time didn't happen and that's okay. Also, just had 325 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 2: one more note about Coda before we move on, you know, 326 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 2: close the book on this game. It's pretty crazy because 327 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 2: I don't think there's anything again that would bear stastistically, 328 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 2: but he has a one point one whip at home 329 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 2: and a one point four whip on the road. 330 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: Well, I think there're like, I don't know what the 331 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: reasoning could be. But through our conversation that we had 332 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:25,319 Speaker 1: with him, he did talk about how like the travel 333 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: is is something that's a little bit more difficult getting 334 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,080 Speaker 1: used to, you know, all the different elements, all the 335 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 1: different stadiums, And I'm sure he feels extremely comfortable at 336 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 1: City Field. I'm sure he has a routine. Pictures are 337 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 1: very very routine oriented. So I'm sure it's like I 338 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 1: get in the car, it drops me off of the 339 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 1: stadium at this time, I do this, I do this, 340 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,080 Speaker 1: I do this, get to a new city, it probably 341 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 1: just feels a little bit weird for him, not that 342 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 1: he wasn't traveling. In Japan, they travel plenty in that league, 343 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 1: but it is different than what happens in the United States, 344 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: and that consists or the uh the amount that you 345 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:52,719 Speaker 1: travel as well. 346 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, almost every single time the Mets go into road trip, 347 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 2: Coda saying is going to a new place for the 348 00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 2: first time. Like, think about how any of us feel 349 00:12:58,360 --> 00:12:59,719 Speaker 2: when we go to a new place for the first time. 350 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 2: Weird sometimes like I don't know where to eat, I 351 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 2: think my bed's not that comfortable, Like maybe I don't know, 352 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 2: just I'm a little things get backed up sometimes, you know, 353 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 2: you travel, I know that happens me sometimes I travel. 354 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 2: Maybe might be TMI for the podcast listeners out there, 355 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 2: but sometimes you travel, you just got their comfort zone. 356 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:12,839 Speaker 3: Things are weird. 357 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:14,679 Speaker 2: So every single time the mast take a road trip, 358 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 2: almost cause they saying it has to go to a 359 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 2: new place for the first time. So that's definitely adjustment. 360 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 2: But that's really all we want to say about this game. 361 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 2: It was really frustrating that we couldn't hit Dallas Kyko 362 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,319 Speaker 2: better because at this point he's basically like one of 363 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 2: the worst pitchers in baseball. He goes out there with 364 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 2: smoke and mirrors, smoke, mirror's and the beard every single time. 365 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:32,880 Speaker 2: Only two hard hit balls against him was difficult to 366 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 2: wrap my mind around. Did get a nice to run 367 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 2: double from Francisco Lindor two really nice rbs from Lindor. 368 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 2: Just continues to be an incredible run producer in the 369 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 2: middle of this lineup. Having a wonderful season, as we 370 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 2: all know he would, as we all know he always will. 371 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 2: He's a fantastic ball player, but has kind of the book. 372 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 2: On Friday night Game one, yeah. 373 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 1: And then Game two, we got to talk about the 374 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 1: most peculiar pitcher in all of Major League Baseball, David Peterson, 375 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,719 Speaker 1: because he did that thing again where he gets lost 376 00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 1: swings and misses and he gets strikeouts. And to be fair, 377 00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:01,440 Speaker 1: that Twins do I think strike out the most in 378 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball, or at least they used to get 379 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 1: against right hand out of pitchers. Oh, but just relatively speaking, 380 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 1: they do swing and miss a lot. And I mean, 381 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 1: Joey Gallo on your team that will do that to you. 382 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 1: But David Peterson did that thing where got the swings 383 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 1: and misses, ended up having a pretty good start. There 384 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:18,720 Speaker 1: were ups and downs, but to finish with six innings, 385 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 1: eight k's and only tour in runs just stuff that 386 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 1: keeps on adding up. And like I know, people have 387 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 1: been I feel like a little impatient probably this year 388 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 1: with David Peterson, and understandably so. There's a lot of 389 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 1: high expectations for this team and himself coming into the year, 390 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 1: and at the beginning of the year it wasn't great. 391 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 1: But over this last month or so, when he's really 392 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 1: been thrown back into the rotation, there have been those 393 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 1: positive signs again that make. 394 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 3: You believe, or at least makes me believe and you 395 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 3: werek correct. 396 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 2: They do have the highest track out in baseball by 397 00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 2: a full percentage point. Minnesot Twins twenty six point eight, 398 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 2: Seattle Mariners a second twenty five point eight. Would never 399 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 2: have guess the Mariners were even second, there were the 400 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:52,240 Speaker 2: Twins being first. But this was a game Peterson where 401 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 2: you kind of felt like there were times even earlier 402 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 2: this year in his past where things could have really 403 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 2: dramatically spiraled and gotten out of control, like the first 404 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 2: I think the first two guys got on. There were 405 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 2: only two one, two, three in through the whole game. 406 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 2: That was in the fourth and the fifth, or the 407 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 2: fifth and sixth, fourth and the fifth, fourth and the fifth. Yeah, 408 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 2: remember now, it was just. 409 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 1: In trouble, out of trouble, in trouble, out of trouble, 410 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: in trouble, out of trouble, had to make a pitch, 411 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 1: made the pitch when he had to make it. 412 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 2: The Twins are rallying. You stop him before it gets 413 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 2: out of hand. Squeaker run through there, Squeaker run through there. 414 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 2: Wound up throwing six innings with eight strikeouts, only two 415 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 2: earned runs, and like you could kind of feel that 416 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 2: that first thing I mentioned before, Donovan Solano, I think 417 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 2: was hit by a pitch in the first at bat, 418 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 2: and then Jay Plank Drew Walk hit a single. 419 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 3: My mind's escaping me now. 420 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 2: And then the middle of the Twins lineup, which is 421 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 2: kind of scary, with Royce Lewis, Carls Korea, and Jordan Luplow. 422 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 3: Luplow. 423 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 1: Jordan Luplo doesn't sound scary, but he is an all 424 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: time lefty killer. He finds his way onto a team 425 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 1: every single year Major League Baseball, but he annihilates left 426 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 1: handed pitching. He struck all three of those guys out 427 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 1: and Krey and Luplo on six pitches total. So from 428 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 1: once those first two guys got on, he said, David Peterson, 429 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 1: you know, kind of losing it, kind of getting nervous, 430 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 1: not not really being able to get it back, just 431 00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 1: completely bared down and got it. And he was still 432 00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 1: choppy after that, but he just kept finding ways to 433 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 1: get And there's an interesting thing I've been noticing with Peterson, 434 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 1: and I mentioned this the last few episodes in the podcast, 435 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 1: that the slider's kind of changing again. I've talked about 436 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 1: Code saying it going to a bit of a gyro 437 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 1: slider this year, and Peterson has done that as well. 438 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 2: If you go on Baseball Savan Guys and you check 439 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 2: out Peterson's year by year horizontal movement on the slider, 440 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 2: every single year it's gone down, even the starts. This year, 441 00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 2: it's seem to go down almost as we've gone through 442 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 2: the year. That slither now is almost totally an up 443 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 2: and down pitch, only moving one to three inches horizontally. 444 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 3: Interesting. 445 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 1: That's WoT. I really would love to know the reasoning 446 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 1: behind that move I know, like we've talked about just 447 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 1: like to change it up. We'll look a little bit here, 448 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 1: and the gyro slader has been effective for multiple pitchers. 449 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: But I'd love to hear from these guys like, hey, 450 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 1: what's the reason you decided to change your slider, because 451 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 1: slider was really good. It was one of the better 452 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: pitchers he had last year as well. 453 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:48,160 Speaker 2: I feel like this is just just totally pontificating and 454 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 2: just thinking about like the white pitches look compared to 455 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 2: one another, and thinking about Peterson himself. The sinker has 456 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 2: for a good part of the year gotten better results 457 00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 2: than his fastball, even though it fastball in this game 458 00:16:57,880 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 2: to get lost swings and misses, and it always does despike 459 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 2: to grading out very poorly and like not having that 460 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,439 Speaker 2: much velocity, which again probably his extension. But I do 461 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 2: feel like, yeah, the gyro slider probably in terms of 462 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:09,879 Speaker 2: like look and feeling, the ability to tunnel a pitch 463 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:14,200 Speaker 2: probably works better off of the sinker than the four seamer. 464 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 2: So maybe that's just more writing on the wall. This 465 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 2: is all pure speculation. We will know, just trying to 466 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 2: think and look and see what I see there. But 467 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 2: is something that is happening and it has worked for 468 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 2: David Peterson really well this last month ish. 469 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's just he's always got such a weird line, 470 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 1: like six in eight hits, a walk in eight strikeouts. 471 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,000 Speaker 1: You're like, you get hit, but you also get swings 472 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 1: and misses. Doesn't make any sense. We'll keep watching, David 473 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 1: Peters say, as the season goes on, keep lowering that euri, 474 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 1: keep pitching well as we go into next year. On 475 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,199 Speaker 1: the offensive side of things, before we talk about what 476 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 1: happened at the end of the game there Brandon Nimo 477 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:47,119 Speaker 1: swinging the bat well again, continuing to raise that career 478 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:49,719 Speaker 1: high in home runs up to twenty three. Nimba might 479 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,479 Speaker 1: finish with twenty five twenty seven home runs this year, 480 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 1: which is pretty impressive for a guy who, we say 481 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 1: it all the time, is just so criminally underrated. I 482 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 1: think even by Mets fans sometimes they underrate this guy. 483 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 2: That was a leeloff one for brand Nemo. Really nice 484 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 2: to start the game off one nothing, especially in the 485 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:05,199 Speaker 2: rope park. You get that one, you keep moving on. 486 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,960 Speaker 2: It's just him adding power to his game and maintaining 487 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 2: him a lot of the on base ability he's always 488 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 2: had and continue to play decent good defense in center field, 489 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 2: like such a freaking good ballplayer, Like you just think 490 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,199 Speaker 2: about where the building blocks are in this team, and 491 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,200 Speaker 2: like who we know is going to be, like who 492 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 2: are confident and moving forward like twenty twenty four and beyond, 493 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 2: like you could just it's get to the point where 494 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:27,879 Speaker 2: you kind of set your watch to Brandon Nemo and 495 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 2: that's a really fun. 496 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,199 Speaker 1: Place to be. Yeah, No, one hundred percent. Alonso got 497 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:33,359 Speaker 1: a home run as well, off uh is it gust 498 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:34,119 Speaker 1: Or Louis Varland? 499 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 3: Which Viorland is that? This is Louis Gus is out 500 00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 3: in La I believe, Okay. 501 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:40,920 Speaker 1: Louis Arland. And then DJ Stewart as well, our King 502 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 1: another home run. Good little series for Dj as he 503 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 1: finally came back from what would was just a little 504 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 1: bit of a nagging injury. So glad to see that 505 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:49,959 Speaker 1: he's swinging the bat well. Ronnie Maurisio continues to get 506 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,360 Speaker 1: hits in this one. It was just the bullpen. That's 507 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,160 Speaker 1: really what it came down to again the bullpen. Drew 508 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 1: Smith did not have a good performance, give up four 509 00:18:56,840 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 1: and runs and two thirds of an inning. Just not sure, 510 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 1: not sharp and your boy Briga. While he did have 511 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:04,199 Speaker 1: the three k's and in the third the stuff that 512 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 1: you love. Did give up a run as well. Just 513 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 1: Mets couldn't keep this one close once David Peterson came 514 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 1: out of the game. 515 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 2: No, no, again, we're shooting out for the positive here 516 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 2: and the positive here where Peterson then bat's finals some power. 517 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 3: Also a get Mariso. 518 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,200 Speaker 2: He's mentioned three heart hit balls, just guess every time 519 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:19,520 Speaker 2: he gets up to the plays looking to take some 520 00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:20,199 Speaker 2: hacks and attack. 521 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 3: I really liked that. 522 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 1: I really enjoy watching him play baseball. I very much 523 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:26,120 Speaker 1: like seeing him play second base every day. 524 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:26,680 Speaker 3: It feels good. 525 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's the rap on Saturday and now was 526 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 2: going to Sunday day game here for the Mets. And 527 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 2: there's another weird one for mcguil. Every single podcast are like, 528 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:34,639 Speaker 2: this is McGill. 529 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:35,879 Speaker 3: It was. It was good, but it was weird. 530 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 2: Five innigs nowhere and runs but four walks in two 531 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 2: strikeouts and this was happening in the bizarre happing the 532 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 2: background of football only also only three hard hit balls, 533 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 2: like they were not able to connect on things. And 534 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 2: it was a lot of fastballs, and that was his 535 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:49,920 Speaker 2: most swift pitch and fastball still sat around ninety five. 536 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:52,199 Speaker 2: This was his lowest average velocity though since he came 537 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 2: back from the minor leagues. So the last two starts 538 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:55,640 Speaker 2: he had to tick down a little bit below ninety 539 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 2: five and each so something to keep an eye for 540 00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,200 Speaker 2: him for next time, because we know how much Tyler 541 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 2: McGill's in. This oscillates between his velocity, but he keep 542 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:05,399 Speaker 2: him off the board and the jobs keep him off 543 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 2: the board. The only problem was that he went up 544 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 2: against Pablo Lopez, who told you, guys, is a different 545 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:12,359 Speaker 2: pitcher from his Miami days, and he was disgusting in 546 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 2: his game from Minnesota. One of the best games I 547 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 2: would say pitched by Andy Starter in baseball this year. 548 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 2: Twenty five swings and misses and fourteen strikeouts completed eight innings. 549 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 2: Only about one hundred five pitches got fifty percent whiffs 550 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 2: in his fastball alone, and that's the pitch for him, 551 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,480 Speaker 2: that's usually it's it's good to find fastball has a 552 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:29,359 Speaker 2: decent shape, not a lot of lassi, but usually just 553 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:30,920 Speaker 2: a way to get to his change up and sweeper, 554 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 2: the two kind of crown jewels of his repertoire. And 555 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 2: he just he was thrown in by Mets all day 556 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 2: long and it was crazy. 557 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 1: He yeah, no, I mean like Pablo Lopez, he was 558 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,720 Speaker 1: good at Miami too, Like we need to say that, 559 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 1: And I think do we say, hm the last episode 560 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 1: that You're gonna look back on this trade in like 561 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:48,159 Speaker 1: a year and be like, what this was such a 562 00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:50,639 Speaker 1: fleece job, Like why why do the Marlins imagine what 563 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 1: the Marlins would be able to do right after at 564 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 1: Babo Lopez in that rotation. Ooh, they could use. 565 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 2: Him, yeah right, I mean they've been using Louis or 566 00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 2: Eyes all year. The team finally started hitting again when 567 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 2: he also started hitting against I think he has a 568 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 2: pretty big deal for that lineup. But Papa is just 569 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 2: Papa is getting to the point where like he's kind 570 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:07,119 Speaker 2: of like a bone in five, top thirty pitcher in 571 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 2: the league with a lot of upsides from one. And 572 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:11,159 Speaker 2: he's a guy who always struggled with injuries and now 573 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:12,919 Speaker 2: you're looking back to back years where he's had three 574 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 2: hundred innings pitch to combine, not not in one year, 575 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:17,680 Speaker 2: come through, He's clips three hundred things over the last 576 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 2: two years, and you're like, oh, there's the thing I 577 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 2: always say to you guys, you're kind of injury pron 578 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 2: until you're not. And eventually some of these guys, they 579 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 2: just kind of won't be anymore. And Pope is ascending 580 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,679 Speaker 2: in this league and he is a linchpin for what 581 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:29,959 Speaker 2: could be the first time the Minneso Twins go win 582 00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 2: a playoff series. And in most people's lifetimes we're listening 583 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:36,200 Speaker 2: to this podcast. Yeah he uh he, he just looks 584 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 2: really good, looks really solid. 585 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 1: Uh. Happy for him because I like Pope Lopez seems 586 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 1: to be a really nice guy and like everything that 587 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 1: I've ever seen about him, he's just like he loves baseball. 588 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 1: He's a really smart guy. Very cerebral script pick up 589 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:48,880 Speaker 1: by the Twins. But of course let's win this one, 590 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 1: so let's talk about the positives here. DJ Stewart again 591 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:56,879 Speaker 1: shout out James for jinxing gryffin Jacks, which jinxing Gryffin Jacks. 592 00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:58,120 Speaker 3: That is not easy to say. 593 00:21:58,119 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 2: You want to get that one to try jinxing Griffin 594 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,159 Speaker 2: a good podcasting, got to really. 595 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 1: Like gotta really enunciate there. But DJ Stewart a little 596 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 1: two run double in the ninth inning. Let's win because 597 00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:11,159 Speaker 1: it was a absolute stalemate up until the ninth zero zero. 598 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,199 Speaker 1: But of course, our King DJ Stewart, the man, what 599 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: can he do nothing? 600 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 2: DJ Stewart since the beginning of August since has been 601 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 2: basically a regular ten home runs, twenty two RBIs, twelve 602 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,399 Speaker 2: runs scored. It's uncanny what this guy's able to do 603 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 2: with the play right now. He is so good. He's 604 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 2: doing so much to earn himself a job in the 605 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 2: league next year. We've heard so many great things about 606 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:34,719 Speaker 2: him behind the scenes. You guys heard the interview with him, 607 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 2: and how amazing he was, and how just like cool, calm, collected, 608 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,159 Speaker 2: interesting the guy is as a ballplayer, as a person. 609 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,159 Speaker 2: It's just kind of happens every couple of years in 610 00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 2: baseball where someone who was once highly touted kind of 611 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 2: falls down a little bit and it comes back up 612 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:50,160 Speaker 2: in a really big way. I mean, I've been talking 613 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 2: about giving my flowers to guys like JP Craft for 614 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 2: then who else? I say, last series? Similar last year? Yeah, 615 00:22:57,320 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 2: last year, Mike Ford. No Weekday it wasn't my phone, 616 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 2: that was last weekend. 617 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:03,919 Speaker 1: Oh man, I don't know. 618 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,639 Speaker 3: Two games series was Abrams. It could have been Abrams. No, 619 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 3: I think it. 620 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:10,160 Speaker 1: Maybe it was Joy that was one of them. I'm 621 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,320 Speaker 1: talking about guys who were like similar. DJ Stewart her 622 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 1: who are Plaine Thomas? 623 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 2: Maybe like Thomas, I don't know, but just someone who 624 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 2: was a first round pick, who was a highly talent prospect, 625 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,359 Speaker 2: who had everything at their fingertips, and as they were 626 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 2: coming up to the league didn't work. The first time around, 627 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:24,680 Speaker 2: you could't get you had your opportunity. The second time around, 628 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 2: you don't sneeze out it. You do everything you can 629 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:29,160 Speaker 2: secure a spot in this league. And there's no talent 630 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 2: with the future is gonna hold for DJ Stewart. He 631 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,600 Speaker 2: is still pre arbitration under contract with the New York Meds. 632 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 2: So every indication is I mean as as someone who's 633 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 2: not gonna caut very much money probably will stick around. 634 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 3: And I I don't. I don't. I don't really want to. 635 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 1: Play baseball athem anymore. 636 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,120 Speaker 2: He's also a fun thing that happens every year in September, 637 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,439 Speaker 2: as I'm sure menu are where the fancy baseball playoffs 638 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:48,359 Speaker 2: are among us.

We had the privilege of 787 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 2: seeing Jordan Lawler, very highly tabbed Diamondback shortstop prospect, make 788 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 2: his major league debut last Thursday. 789 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:53,320 Speaker 1: Really cool to see him. He just looks like an 790 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 1: exciting player. 791 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 2: Physical tools are off the charts, some swing and missing 792 00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 2: his game, but I don't think it's that much is 793 00:29:57,800 --> 00:29:59,680 Speaker 2: really going to stop him. He's only twenty one years old, 794 00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 2: so I we're gonna see this like staral over from 795 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,480 Speaker 2: him for a few years. He's not a prospect and 796 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 2: level of like say like the Corpyn Carroll's the Jason 797 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,760 Speaker 2: Dimingezes of the world, but good ballplayer. Definitely gonna be 798 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:10,240 Speaker 2: a good guy to check out the field this week. 799 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 2: Gabrielle Moreno is an exciting prospect who I think I'm 800 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 2: higher on than Mark. He's really done a lot in 801 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 2: the second half to improve his proof of standing as 802 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 2: a player. Corbyn Carroll's also gotten super high again, been 803 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:23,960 Speaker 2: great last couple of months.

We'll see if 841 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,400 Speaker 2: anything from the Cyclones winds up on Binghamton now that 842 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 2: they're eliminated and we're trying to make a run over there. 843 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:43,320 Speaker 2: It's really fun team over there. I shout out my 844 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 2: buddy Ross too. He asked me a lot of question 845 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 2: about podcasting of the last few years. A couple of 846 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 2: I think was a year ago. That a year ago 847 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:49,760 Speaker 2: something like that. He got a job in marketing with 848 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 2: Binghamton and he was like, guys got comment for the playoffs. 849 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 3: I was like, maybe we will. 850 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:54,520 Speaker 1: Honestly, I think the Being of Mets are kind of 851 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:56,680 Speaker 1: electric right now, the one of the best shows in sports. 852 00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:59,080 Speaker 3: So I would like to see that. And now, how 853 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 3: do we get to bingham to We're going to we 854 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 3: neither of. 855 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:02,960 Speaker 1: Us own an round one. We're going to figure that out. 856 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 1: We're going to find a way. 857 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:06,120 Speaker 3: If happens, we'll find a way. You know a guy 858 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 3: you know who isn't Noah guy. 859 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,200 Speaker 2: But the other thing I want to say right now 860 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 2: football is starting and we saw since we talked to 861 00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:16,240 Speaker 2: you guys last Thursday night NFL Football, the Lions beat 862 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 2: defending champion Chiefs to open up the year. Huge win 863 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 2: for Dan Campbell and the Boys. Jared Goff, David montgomeryl 864 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 2: Jamior Gibbs. 865 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 1: Truth is out there. I'm really sorry you might have 866 00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 1: to wait a few weeks, but. 867 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:29,640 Speaker 2: I think there is something that a lot of us 868 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 2: in sports, especially the Mets right now, could learn from 869 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 2: the Lions in terms of how you like, how we 870 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 2: should face approach the end of the year as fans. 871 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:39,600 Speaker 2: Especially two years ago twenty twenty one, the Lions were 872 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:41,720 Speaker 2: two thirteen to one heading into the last game of 873 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 2: the year. Dan Campbell was still the coach, Jared gobb 874 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 2: was still the quarterback. They just traded their best player 875 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 2: a Matt Stafford, and things looked bleak, as they always 876 00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 2: have for the Detroit Lions. A loss in week at 877 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,200 Speaker 2: a time, sixteen or week seventeen, sixteenth game of the year, 878 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 2: I know that's beginning of seventeen game schedule. 879 00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:57,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, sure, A loss in last. 880 00:32:57,400 --> 00:32:58,760 Speaker 2: Week of the season for them will have guaranteed in 881 00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 2: them one overall pick the time before the pre draft process. 882 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 3: That was Aiden Hutchison. 883 00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 1: Eight. Hudgerson is a Michigan boy. He went to Michigan. 884 00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 1: Everything looked like, you can't you can't lose the opportunity 885 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:10,200 Speaker 1: to take this guy. And you know what the Liones 886 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 1: did that last week of the year. 887 00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:13,840 Speaker 2: They went out there with their hair on fire and 888 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:17,040 Speaker 2: they beat their art rival Green Bay Packers in the 889 00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:17,840 Speaker 2: last game of the year. 890 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:19,239 Speaker 3: They blew the chance number one overall pick. 891 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:20,440 Speaker 1: They wanted to pick the number two. 892 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:21,760 Speaker 2: That year, and a lot of the fans were really 893 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:23,360 Speaker 2: frustrated by the fact that they went out and one 894 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:26,280 Speaker 2: was quote unquote in a meaningless game and lost their 895 00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:26,760 Speaker 2: draft pick. 896 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:28,200 Speaker 1: We know what happened. 897 00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 2: A Hudson wind up dropping number two in the draft 898 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,000 Speaker 2: because the Jaguars fell and love the Trayvon Walker because 899 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:34,600 Speaker 2: he had traits instead of a Hudcheon who was just 900 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:37,240 Speaker 2: a monster. Eight Hudcheon right now is the farest beer player, 901 00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:40,640 Speaker 2: the Trayvon Walker, and that play I think kind of 902 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:43,040 Speaker 2: defined what this Detroit Lions team has become. And again 903 00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:44,760 Speaker 2: this football talks, We're gonna stop this like two minutes 904 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 2: because know how much you guys hate football talk. That 905 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,560 Speaker 2: win kind of reset where the Lions were as a team, 906 00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:51,560 Speaker 2: as a culture, like kind of how they were I 907 00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 2: feel like viewed a little bit in pop culture as well, 908 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:55,440 Speaker 2: where Yeah, they came out and said, we don't care, 909 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:57,080 Speaker 2: we don't care what's happened this year, we don't care 910 00:33:57,080 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 2: what's gonna happen. Ever, we are going to play our 911 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 2: best as much as we can. And I think that 912 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:02,840 Speaker 2: is something that I want to take the rest season 913 00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 2: as Mets fans, because play some games, win some games, 914 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,919 Speaker 2: be competitive, do everything you can, and just make us 915 00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:12,760 Speaker 2: feel as good as possible, confidence possible, ready as possible 916 00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:14,480 Speaker 2: as mush momentum as you possibly can't bring it to 917 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:17,279 Speaker 2: next year's. 918 00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:17,480 Speaker 1: Let's be mad at the end of the season because 919 00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:19,080 Speaker 1: we were close to making the playoffs. We're like, we 920 00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 1: almost did it. We played so well towards the end, 921 00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:22,879 Speaker 1: we got close. I'd love to be mad about that 922 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:24,640 Speaker 1: because that means a lot of good things are happening. 923 00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 1: Build upon the positives, keep playing good baseball. We have 924 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 1: so many good young players on this team to be 925 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:31,839 Speaker 1: able to see the growth in the development from guys 926 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:35,120 Speaker 1: like Alvarez, Beatty Mauricio Vientos. As the year goes on, 927 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:37,399 Speaker 1: to see our pitchers continue to pitch better and better, 928 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,000 Speaker 1: the relief pitcher, whatever it's going to be. The positives 929 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 1: are super important. And like you said, it just shows 930 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 1: a lot about the team, shows a lot about the culture, 931 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:46,000 Speaker 1: It shows a lot about the manager, It shows a 932 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 1: lot about everything. How to see the team ends and 933 00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:51,279 Speaker 1: ending strong is just such a It's a good thing 934 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:52,759 Speaker 1: for everybody involved to. 935 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:55,799 Speaker 2: Do yes and winning winning games of sports never a 936 00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:57,720 Speaker 2: bed thing. I know a lot of people are obsessed 937 00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,480 Speaker 2: with the concept of tanking and about your draft pick. 938 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:01,359 Speaker 1: First of all, the tankings for losing. 939 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:03,359 Speaker 2: If you want to look at trust the process. Look 940 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:05,560 Speaker 2: how the process worked out doesn't matter if you want 941 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:06,759 Speaker 2: to win. If you want to win the future, you 942 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:08,400 Speaker 2: have to win in the present. I just made that 943 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:08,920 Speaker 2: up right now. 944 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:09,200 Speaker 1: That's it. 945 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:09,759 Speaker 3: That's a James she. 946 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:15,239 Speaker 1: Stamp original bang.
