Speaker 1: just went into Philadelphia and we won games and we

17
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 1: started to look a little bit more like the Mets

18
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 1: some good ways. Yeah, won the series. We look like

19
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 1: the old Mets some ways, you know at the plate.

20
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 1: We also look like the old Mets some ways on

21
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:56,360
Speaker 1: the mound as well.

22
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 2: If I can bring back a quote from you from

23
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 2: episode ten, you said, let's just win two out of three.

24
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 2: I don't care how and.

25
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 1: That's exactly what happened. That is literally exactly what happened.

26
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 1: We won two out of three, and I'm ecstatic because,

27
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 1: I mean, like, there's so much to talk about this series.

28
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 1: Between Game one the Alvarado Shenanigans, Game two, Donnie Stevenson,

29
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 1: who is Donnie Stevenson. We're gonna go deep dive into

30
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 1: the mystery that is the new hire of Donnie Stevenson

31
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 1: that Peter A. Lonzo talked about. And then Game three.

32
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 1: I mean, oh my god, we this is literally five

33
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 1: six minutes after the game has ended. Me and James

34
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,959
Speaker 1: are on here talking about this. This Game three was insane.

35
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,479
Speaker 1: Game three was insane anyway you slice it. So we're

36
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 1: gonna go over all the games in depth, as you

43

Speaker 1: video side here, so you're only gonna get an audio side,

44

48
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 1: Mark James. Let's just let's just talk about Game three

49
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: right now, because that's what's hot on the mind for sure. Insane, insanity, sweating.

50
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 2: Well.

51
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: I had a roller coaster of emotions, so I was

52
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 1: in the car for about the first six innings. I

53
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,800
Speaker 1: came back in the first play I see is Miguel

54
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 1: Castro making an error with Bryce Harper, and then since

55
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 1: then the game has been seriously like a fever dream.

56
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 2: I just want to get out of the way that

57
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 2: I jinx the shit out of the Mets relievers this series,

58
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 2: me talking about how great they were, that no one

59
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,799
Speaker 2: had given up a home run and Bang only one

60
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 2: home run today almost two home runs. Migul Casher gave

61
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 2: up that home run made me look like shit. And

62
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:42,680
Speaker 2: Edmund Diaz did not give up a home run.

63
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean like he did, but hey, in the

64
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 1: stat book he did not. Because for those of who

65
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 1: if you haven't watched the game, seriously, like stop, go

66
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 1: see what happened in the ninth inning, because we're not

67
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,080
Speaker 1: gonna be able to explain it, probably that well, because

68
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 1: what happened is something I've really never seen happen.

69
00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 2: I can give it a shot. I'll try to explain this,

70
00:02:59,480 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 2: all right, All.

71
00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:01,799
Speaker 1: Right, James is gonna git a shot. Let's see come back,

72
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 1: come back, don't.

73
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, pause, stay with us here for a second.

74
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,399
Speaker 2: Edmond Diaz did with edwind Diaz does in non safe

75
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 2: situations and looked like shit. He came out, he couldn't

76
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 2: throw strikes at the bottom of the order. Yahda YadA, YadA.

77
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 2: Reee Hoskins comes up as a tying run bottom of

78
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,839
Speaker 2: the ninth and he hits a piss missile to right

79
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 2: field as ree Hoskins does, as ree Hoskins does against

80
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 2: the Mets continuously and just clanked off what look like

81
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 2: the front stands and bounce back into the ballpark. And

82
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 2: it was just absolute depression. The Mets had blown a

83
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,240
Speaker 2: four when lead the ninth inning. After furious comeback, and

84
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 2: upon further review, a much closer look revealed that the

85
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 2: ball actually hit the top of the railing that sits

86
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 2: over the right field fence and Citizens Bank Park careening

87
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 2: back into the field, meaning it was not a home

88
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 2: run rule the ground rule double bring everyone back out

89
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 2: and Jerry's familiar your boy closes the door on Bryce Harper, which, by.

90
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 1: The way, we also need to talk about how Edwin

91
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 1: d has left the game because.

92
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 2: Of an injury. That's true, totally forgot about that, Oh Jesus.

93
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 1: Which I think, which I think I glossed over by everyone.

94
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 1: I don't even think vas Skurshon and a Rod which,

95
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 1: by the way, Oh my god. The Sunday Night Baseball

96
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 1: crew is horrible. We'll get into the trashing of them

97
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 1: soon because they deserve to be trashed. They're horrendous. But

98
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 1: Edwin Diaz left that game after he gave up the

99
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 1: alleged home run to Rhys Hoskins. Trainer came out, he

100
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 1: came off the field immediately, he went right down into

101
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 1: the dugout, went right into the tunnel. We don't know

102
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 1: what's going on with wan Ds healthwise. Of course, we

103
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,280
Speaker 1: want the best, because this guy has been lights out

104
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,160
Speaker 1: this year. This has really been the first time he's

105
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 1: shown any signs of the old Edwin with the New

106
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,039
Speaker 1: York Mets. And it's just like you said, in non

107
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,280
Speaker 1: save situations. He can't come into the game. He just

108
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:36,840
Speaker 1: can't do it.

109
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,359
Speaker 2: No, he can't do it. And it's it's just what

110
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 2: comes down with Edwin over and over against strikes. He

111
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 2: got their strikes, he got their strikes, gout the strikes

112
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:45,719
Speaker 2: came in. He wasn't throwing strikes. He just seems less

113
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 2: amped up when the game is not in a safe situation.

114
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:51,160
Speaker 2: This stupid rule that you get a stat when your

115
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,039
Speaker 2: team is up by three runs or less for some reason,

116
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 2: has all the impacts in Edwin did as his mental

117
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:58,480
Speaker 2: capacity in these games. But past that mess had a

118
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 2: great rally to come back in this game, let's talk

119
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 2: about it. There was some of the positives from tonight.

120
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 1: Which it couldn't have came against the better guy in

121
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,719
Speaker 1: Jose Alvarado and that fuck, fuck you Jose Alvarado. I

122
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 1: say that with a passion. I normally love the passion

123
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 1: and everything and I love being like, you know, raw

124
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 1: ra batflip, you know, talking shit. But he like he

125
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 1: went crazy. So it was great to see that he

126
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 1: just completely fell apart this game and he looked like

127
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 1: the Jose Alvarado that you've seen in the past with

128
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 1: the Tampere Rays a guy who couldn't front throw strikes,

129
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 1: find the strikes on at all, and then would give

130
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 1: up a hit and that would break everything open, which

131
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:29,479
Speaker 1: is exactly what happened.

132
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's exactly what happened. It was it was fun

133
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 2: to win the game, first of all, but it was

134
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,039
Speaker 2: definitely fun to beat him. After the game, Pete immediately

135
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 2: came on with the ESPN guys. Steve Leeby was asking

136
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,360
Speaker 2: him just some horribly awkward questions. Awful. He asked him,

137
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,479
Speaker 2: how are you being a good teammate the Francisco Lador

138
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 2: amid his struggles and then he was like, how are

139
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:49,719
Speaker 2: you feeling about beating Francisco Jose Alvarado? And Pete was like,

140
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:51,840
Speaker 2: we beat the Phillies, It's fine, and he goes he

141
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 2: was like, doesn't feel good again it was against Alvarado,

142
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 2: and he's like, would beat the good team. With his eyes,

143
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 2: he's saying, stop asking me these questions.

144
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's like right answer from Pete two because really,

145
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: like I mean, we all know, like Alvarado came into

146
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 1: the game and they were probably salivating a little bit,

147
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:08,919
Speaker 1: like we gotta get this guy. Here's our guy. Regardless

148
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 1: of we have to win this game anyway, but we

149
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,159
Speaker 1: have a chance to do it against this rat fuck

150
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 1: who was talking shit the other night. I'm going in

151
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: on Jose with Alvarado. It might be a nice guy

152
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 1: who knows, but just rap.

153
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:20,280
Speaker 2: Does seems like he's a nice guy.

154
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,160
Speaker 1: It seems like he's an asshole. He seems like he's

155
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 1: going to dick buddy. It's the right answer, is to

156
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 1: the political answer. But we also all know that there

157
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,159
Speaker 1: was a little chip on their shoulder seeing Hose.

158
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 2: And this whole thing ties back to the series The Doubleheather.

159
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 2: You were at the Tuesday Hose Tuesday right whatever was

160
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 2: a couple of weeks ago when josel Rado was pitching

161
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,279
Speaker 2: against the Messon City and he threw it and forthough

162
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,479
Speaker 2: twice and him and Dom were chirping at each other

163
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 2: from field to dugout, which you don't see that very

164
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,280
Speaker 2: often from two guys who I don't think I've ever

165
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 2: faced each other before. But for some reason, they both

166
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:50,280
Speaker 2: got into each other's skin. Maybe they kind of look alike,

167
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 2: they kind of get after each other. I don't know why,

168
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:54,279
Speaker 2: but there was this big issue with those two guys,

169
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,720
Speaker 2: and it was really bubbled over the other night.

170
00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, bubbled over from Game one, which, like I guess

171
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,039
Speaker 1: you just talk about it briefly since it's on topic here.

172
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 1: But Dom Smith came up in what the eighth with

173
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,239
Speaker 1: a big chance to tie the game with the Mets ahead,

174
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 1: and I think he just he got out whatever it

175
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 1: was he got out, and Jose Alvarado was pumped. He

176
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 1: gave the like fuck yeah, let's go, like scream. But

177
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 1: then he started running at Dom and saying like, come

178
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 1: get me, bitch, and it was like, what, Like, why

179
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 1: are you trying to fight? Get off the field. You won,

180
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 1: there's nothing else to do. Like he took it to

181
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 1: the next level. I'm all for being excited and pumped

182
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 1: about the the outcome that you just got, but he

183
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 1: like started taunting, which is like where his sources get weird.

184
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 2: I've rarely ever seen a midning fight in baseball, Like

185
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 2: there was no play ongoing, like the inning was completely over.

186
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 2: He had just struck him out. I don't know why

187
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 2: he was trying to get after each other. Ron Darling

188
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 2: had a sick quote during the fight. Did you hear

189
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 2: what he said?

190
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 1: I didn't because I only saw highlights.

191
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 2: Of the so Ron Darling, member of the eighty six Mets,

192
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 2: who had their fair share of brujajas during that season.

193
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 2: He said in the booth, if they invited you, you gotta

194
00:07:58,360 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 2: go get them.

195
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 1: Yeah that I love that. That reminds me of a

196
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 1: little bit of like the cinderguard, like I'm sixty feet

197
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 1: six inches away, come get me.

198
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 2: Like like he is right.

199
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,040
Speaker 1: Though, Ron, like you gotta go get them. Eighty six

200
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 1: Mets would have slacked them up, would have fucked those

201
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 1: guys up. What there would have been fist flying And

202
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 1: I wish that there were a little bit This is

203
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:17,080
Speaker 1: the thing I've been talking about, remember a little bit

204
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 1: of asshole and us. It seemed like Jose Alvarado woke

205
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 1: up a sleeping bear, which is why why would you

206
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:24,520
Speaker 1: want to do some mess? This was a Mets team

207
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 1: that was ready to like kind of roll over a

208
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 1: little bit. They've been playing bad baseball and they were

209
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 1: down in the dumps. But seemingly since that you know,

210
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:35,280
Speaker 1: spark or moment of awakening for the New York Mets

211
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,559
Speaker 1: from Jose Alvarado, they have gone back to the offensive

212
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 1: team that we know they were gonna be all year.

213
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 2: Dude, it's a combination of two things. Two Mets team

214
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 2: MVPs that came through in this series. One was Jose

215
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 2: Alvarado and number two is Diesel Donnie Stevenson. Those are

216
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:51,320
Speaker 2: our guys. This is dude. My brain is all over

217
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 2: the place right now. After this, there's.

218
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,200
Speaker 1: Gonna be It's a good thing that there's no video

219
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 1: portion of this, because you know how I normally put

220
00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 1: like the little context of like what we're talking about

221
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 1: down below, about anything, it would be all over the

222
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 1: place today because we're just gonna hop around from all

223
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 1: three games. We're just talking about the series. There's so

224
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 1: many storylines.

225
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:10,319
Speaker 2: We every time we've played the Phillies this season has

226
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:11,680
Speaker 2: been chaos.

227
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 1: Which I kind of love because I feel like the

228
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,680
Speaker 1: Mets since like the Nationals thing in like twenty fifteen,

229
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: twenty sixteen ish, like have been lacking like that like

230
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 1: rival that the players and everyone just hates. And it

231
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: feels like the Phillies are now the Phillies and the Mets,

232
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,680
Speaker 1: like this is the rivalry in the division right now.

233
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 2: Every single game has been a one wrong game. It's nuts.

234
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 2: It's like, I don't know, I just feel like out

235
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 2: of a roller coaster. I really can't gather my thoughts

236
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,280
Speaker 2: right now. Even the win probability chart tonight looked like

237
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 2: a roller coaster during the game, like it went, it

238
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 2: went all the way up and then and then back

239
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 2: up at the end.

240
00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:44,840
Speaker 1: Like I literally okay, So then Familia came in at

241
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 1: the end and that like one two pitch to Bryce

242
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 1: Harper that was on the corner that the umpire stinks

243
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 1: I was. I was standing up and I went I

244
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 1: hit the deck. I hit the deck. I went down,

245
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:57,960
Speaker 1: and I was on my stomach and I was lying

246
00:09:58,000 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 1: there as if you had told me that there was

247
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 1: some terrible event that just occurred, that a natural disaster

248
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,680
Speaker 1: just happened. You would have thought that my life every

249
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 1: single time, Marcus.

250
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:09,839
Speaker 2: You can't believe.

251
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,240
Speaker 1: You would have thought an earthquake appened like I was.

252
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 1: Just I was so upset because that was the picture

253
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 1: familiar I thought he needed. But luckily he came back

254
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,319
Speaker 1: and fuck you, Bryce Harper. Although it looks like Harper's

255
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 1: like wrist is bothering him, which probably put a little

256
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:24,560
Speaker 1: bit into.

257
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 2: It to fuck him. I hate that guy. Yes, I

258
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 2: really I can't stand him. I don't care about wrist.

259
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 1: Hey, hey, Hey, Hey, my boy familia. Though boy Familiar

260
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:34,560
Speaker 1: came through when we needed bore.

261
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 2: Familiar picked up my guys Diaz and Castro.

262
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 1: The bullpen did go figure Jerry's familia, going back to

263
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 1: his old closer role here getting the safe in a

264
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,439
Speaker 1: huge game for the New York messy Philadelphia.

265
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:47,079
Speaker 2: If you would have told me the year twenty fifteen

266
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 2: that your's Familiar wuld strike out Bryce Harper to beat

267
00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 2: the Phillies in the ninth inning, I'd be like, what

268
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,719
Speaker 2: what are you talking about? Familiar be long gone by

269
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 2: then Harper would the Phillies.

270
00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:00,679
Speaker 1: Bryce Harper six years later, he's still the Mets die.

271
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,199
Speaker 1: He's like he's like a cat, but he's playing well.

272
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 1: So I'm happy that he got the out there. I

273
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 1: think that's huge for his confidence.

274
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 2: He was jacked up. He seems like very key inn

275
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 2: that stinks coming into a game like that, completely cold.

276
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 2: Inside of the chaos. That was the second time, it

277
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 2: might be the third time. He's chaos the first ten

278
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 2: minutes of the show. But inside of all that nuts

279
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 2: stuff that was happening in nine inning, it was nice

280
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:24,679
Speaker 2: to see him actually hold his emotions, be calm and execute,

281
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 2: which you worried about that for familiar sometimes, especially with

282
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 2: the heart of the Phillies.

283
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:30,959
Speaker 1: On the two up, he really attacked the zone and

284
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:32,600
Speaker 1: note I think he had like one pitch that really

285
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 1: wasn't close, but I think it was like a pitch

286
00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 1: where it was like, I'm trying to bury that slider

287
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 1: back foot. It seemed like there was a plan there.

288
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 1: It seems like the idea was there. He just missed,

289
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 1: That's what happened. But he came in and he attacked

290
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 1: his own made Harper look like he had nothing. I mean,

291
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 1: he he owns Harper. I think Harper was like two

292
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,000
Speaker 1: for thirteen. I think they said going into that at bat. Yeah,

293
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 1: because I was saying Mat fast Cursion, shut the fuck up.

294
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 1: Stop saying it. You're giving us the jinks. That's all

295
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,560
Speaker 1: we've been doing this series is jinks, jinks, jinks. But

296
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 1: luckily Matt Fast Ursion and a Rod they couldn't ruin

297
00:11:58,280 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 1: this one.

298
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,160
Speaker 2: Yeah. Wait, trivia question, who got the win for the

299
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 2: Mets tonight?

300
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,720
Speaker 1: Who got the win? Yeah, Trevor may.

301
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:13,080
Speaker 2: Nope, your boy, someone in between. Jacob Barns, Chickabarns, Jacob Barnes.

302
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 1: There, he is welcome to the Mets, which, by the way,

303
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:18,319
Speaker 1: good little inning.

304
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 2: He didn't know. A couple of innings in the road

305
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 2: for Jacob Barnes, sneaky, sneaky, good innings for Jacob Barnes.

306
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 1: Is he moved to the top of the seat team,

307
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 1: the top of the seat team.

308
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 2: He might be able be a bench be teamer.

309
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,560
Speaker 1: Now he's getting there. He's getting there. I like it. Good,

310
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 1: good for Jacob Barnes. We didn't want this guy to

311
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 1: think so, I'm glad that he's playing.

312
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 2: I hope he's good. I could hope he continues to improve.

313
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:37,319
Speaker 2: But a barage will lead there. For half a second,

314
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 2: I killed ance transition into talking about how dog shit

315
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,560
Speaker 2: a rather than matves gershon aar. In the broadcast, it

316
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 2: was so bad, painful. They during the ninth inning tonight,

317
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 2: when when everything was reaching his boiling point, it was like,

318
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 2: literally when Familia was coming into the game, or possibly

319
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 2: during the Hoskins at bat, they were bringing up highlights

320
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,199
Speaker 2: from last Sunday's Dodgers Padres game. It's like, well, yeah,

321
00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 2: because you guys have to shut the fuck up. Is

322
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 2: not what's going on?

323
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 1: And it felt like a rod every time too, was like,

324
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 1: you know, the Mets when they got a win. Because

325
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:07,560
Speaker 1: he has this weird lisp now all of a sudden

326
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 1: where he can't say s is, it becomes like s h.

327
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 1: He's like, all right, the Mets, you know late in

328
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,440
Speaker 1: NISI games, they usually win them. I'm like, shut up,

329
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,320
Speaker 1: stop talking, stop saying things. Just tell me what's going

330
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 1: on in the game. I don't want to hear anything else.

331
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 1: Stop opening your mouth.

332
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,439
Speaker 2: The list of stupid things those two guys said today

333
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 2: goes on and on and on and on. They said

334
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 2: it was bad thing that Franciscal Indoors more walks and strikeouts.

335
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,200
Speaker 2: A said Ayrot said Francisco Indoors should be fine if

336
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:32,319
Speaker 2: he hits more than twenty five home runs, like fine

337
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 2: with money. He said he has to act like Johnny

338
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 2: Damon at the plate. It was like, who the what?

339
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:39,560
Speaker 1: Like these are these are words that were.

340
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:41,720
Speaker 2: Coming out of his mouth. It was crazy. Then Aro

341
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 2: said that made this best gursion. They were showing the

342
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 2: bin laden highlights because we're a couple of days away

343
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:47,719
Speaker 2: from the ten year anniversary. And that was also a

344
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,880
Speaker 2: Mets Philly something that baseball game and a restcursion. I

345
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 2: don't remember which idiot said it, but They were like,

346
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,400
Speaker 2: you know, you don't see patriotism like that anywhere else

347
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,680
Speaker 2: in the country besides the East Coast. What are you

348
00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:57,680
Speaker 2: talking about? Man?

349
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:01,199
Speaker 1: It was FASCERSI fask, She's like, no shot to Chicago, LA.

350
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,560
Speaker 1: And then he named like a really weird Yeah. I

351
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 1: was gonna say, like Tampa or something like Saint Louis

352
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 1: great baseball town, but like, what do you mentioned major

353
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 1: cities that doesn't even come close.

354
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,240
Speaker 2: We gotta come out with the mad fastcation defending the

355
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:17,559
Speaker 2: list on patriotism.

356
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 1: Dude, this is I feel like this is a little

357
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 1: bit of a mess, but like this is just this

358
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 1: is what the Mets series was.

359
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 2: It was just supposed to be a mess. Nothing happened

360
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 2: the last two three days even made sense. The Mets

361
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 2: lost a game on Friday. If we wanted like jump

362
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,440
Speaker 2: back and get back to chrowdnological oiler where they didn't

363
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 2: give up an earned run.

364
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, James can't happen. James mcann like, I don't know

365
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 1: how he missed that ball.

366
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,640
Speaker 2: I don't crossed understand, got crossed up, not used to

367
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 2: the bunt.

368
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 1: And then and then two runs scored on it.

369
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 2: Yes, literally two road scores.

370
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,600
Speaker 1: Bad bounce how's that happen all the Mets?

371
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 2: What a ridiculous game. I even I don't even I

372
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 2: don't want to talk about game on because I don't

373
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 2: eve want to talk about Chase fuck Anderson, that rat,

374
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:52,920
Speaker 2: fuck asshole.

375
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 1: Like we literally talked about like if we can't hit

376
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 1: Chase Anderson, we're in trouble. We didn't hit him, and

377
00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 1: I go, oh, no, we're in trouble.

378
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was. I was in a low la Friday night.

379
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 2: And it was also crazy because that's the Mets was

380
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 2: lacing the ball all game against Chase Anderson. They put

381
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 2: multiple balls to the warning track seven of the bat

382
00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 2: the balls they put in play were over ninety five

383
00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:12,240
Speaker 2: miles an hour. It was just torture to watch balls

384
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,360
Speaker 2: fighting gloves against Chase Anderson. It was awful.

385
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 1: I mean, watching that guy pitch is unless you're you know,

386
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 1: usually hitting him, which is what every other team in

387
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 1: baseball seems to do.

388
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, in baseball history, yeah, and Basil history.

389
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 1: I mean, we know how much we love Chase Anderson

390
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,160
Speaker 1: on this podcast. He's a guy that we would love

391
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 1: to take that bad against. But the mess just couldn't

392
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:30,680
Speaker 1: do it.

393
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 2: I couldn't get a hit thank god that they had

394
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 2: the de fact a fight did no punch fight after

395
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,040
Speaker 2: the game is just take all the shine away from

396
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 2: our idiocy.

397
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: Yes, because man, Game one was stressful, But again, luckily

398
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 1: Jose Alvarado and his dumb, fucking idiot brain woke up

399
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 1: the New York Mets, who were ready to just lay

400
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 1: down and roll over and say, hey, you know, maybe

401
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 1: this isn't our year. It fired them up. Dom had

402
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 1: some great words at the end of the game, even

403
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 1: though Dom hasn't been playing that great. But Dom had

404
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 1: some stuff to say and basically said to say. He said,

405
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 1: come get me, and what do you call him a coward?

406
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 1: Or what exactly?

407
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 2: Dude? He said, meet me in the tunnel or something

408
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:08,040
Speaker 2: like that, like I'm a grown ass.

409
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 1: Man, yes, and I love that meet me in the tunnel.

410
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 1: I'd love to see. I wouldn't want to meet Dom

411
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 1: in a tunnel. If he said too, I'd be a

412
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 1: little I think he would be if he's If he's

413
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 1: threatening you, Dom's a happy guy.

414
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 2: If Dom is threatening, scared but Dom. Dom seems like

415
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 2: a happy guy with the Medium, with his teammates. But

416
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:24,520
Speaker 2: it seems like Dom is not a very fun guy

417
00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 2: to play against. He's like very lively. He's the guy

418
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 2: that we've talked about for a couple weeks. The Mets

419
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:31,800
Speaker 2: need just some juice. They got some juice. Jose alvad

420
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 2: to living in the juice. Jose Alvarado is low key

421
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 2: the best team MVP right now.

422
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:38,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, he might like we might be able to look

423
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 1: back on this at the end of the month of

424
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 1: May and say, Jose Alvarado is what turned the Mets around.

425
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 1: Him being just a complete ass clown is what turned

426
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:50,680
Speaker 1: this entire season around. Ask clown, Ask clown. I will

427
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 1: throw every single possible insult in the book here at

428
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:57,240
Speaker 1: Jose Alvarado. Rap, fuck, ask clown, whatever it is.

429
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 2: Focus up for a second again. So Stroman's game, because

430
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 2: Stroman had one of his best starts of the season

431
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 2: on Friday night in a freezing cold evening in Philly

432
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:06,920
Speaker 2: that was cut short because he had a stiff hamstring.

433
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,479
Speaker 2: The guy was just in control, in control. My guy

434
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 2: can't even talk right now. He finally got the whiffs

435
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:15,879
Speaker 2: the strike as we've been waiting for thirty nine percent

436
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:18,240
Speaker 2: whiff rate, eight k's. That was huge. Philly said three

437
00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 2: measly singles. The entire time only got to one three

438
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:25,120
Speaker 2: ball count against Stroman the entire evening. That's just that's

439
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 2: just dominant. That's just doing dude. You got it.

440
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:29,879
Speaker 1: That feels like that feels like Marcus Stroman baseball. I

441
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:31,560
Speaker 1: mean we saw it in Colorado too, Like he's just

442
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:33,639
Speaker 1: been attacking hitters and it seems like on Friday night

443
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 1: he got the whiffs, which is huge.

444
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:36,199
Speaker 2: He was definitely and he was just he was just

445
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:38,240
Speaker 2: pounding the zone all day. Zone zone zone. Like he

446
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 2: was still throwing lots of sinkers like he's been doing

447
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,440
Speaker 2: the last couple of games, but he wasn't even wasn't

448
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 2: even like dotting them. They were like kind of middle

449
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 2: high middle end, like just high and outside like he

450
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 2: was just putting where they had to be and guys

451
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 2: just not making heart contact. It was great. I'd still

452
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:52,520
Speaker 2: love to see him use the off speed stuff more,

453
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:56,200
Speaker 2: but if it's working, it's working. Can't say anything about it.

454
00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 1: Has he been throwing that? Like what was it? That

455
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 1: split change? I feel like just ankoring a lot with

456
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 1: it and we haven't seen it.

457
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,200
Speaker 2: Only through a few the other night too. He's thrown

458
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,200
Speaker 2: less than ten for three straight starts per game, not total.

459
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:08,399
Speaker 2: So it was just I know, and he still seems

460
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 2: like he can control him still be just he's sinker

461
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 2: sink or sink or sink or sinker right now. Which

462
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 2: when it works, it works. When it doesn't, it might not.

463
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,320
Speaker 2: But he's doing what he's doing. He was effective. He

464
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:19,159
Speaker 2: did his job on Friday night, and it seems like

465
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 2: a distant memory now that we've had two consecutive explosions.

466
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 2: But the offense still just couldn't do anything.

467
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:28,359
Speaker 1: No, they were pretty horrible. I mean, it's just we

468
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 1: can't find a hit when we need it. We can

469
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:31,920
Speaker 1: get the guys on base. Oh, he just can't bring

470
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:32,199
Speaker 1: them in.

471
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:32,920
Speaker 2: Now we can.

472
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:35,400
Speaker 1: But now we can, Yes, now we can. Thank God

473
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:38,439
Speaker 1: for Donnie Donnie Stevenson. Game two. Let's move on to

474
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:40,560
Speaker 1: game two now, because game one we talked about Game

475
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:42,280
Speaker 1: one enough. It was the Jose Alvarado. Yeah, thank you,

476
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,160
Speaker 1: I appreciate you, love you. Going to get a jersey

477
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: for you. Game two, Donnie Stevenson knew higher by the

478
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 1: New York Mets apparently talked to the team before the game.

479
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:54,840
Speaker 1: I heard there was a player's only meeting at first

480
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,359
Speaker 1: where Pete was very vocal about what they should be

481
00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:58,920
Speaker 1: doing at the plate and what their plan of attack

482
00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 1: should be. And then a Pirly Rojas as well came

483
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,959
Speaker 1: in at one point and went through with every single

484
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:05,680
Speaker 1: player with the plan of attack is going to be

485
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,199
Speaker 1: at the plate, which makes me go, why haven't we

486
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 1: been going over the planet of attack with every single

487
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 1: player at the plate before every single game? Like why

488
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:15,120
Speaker 1: is this? Why did it take the team not scoring

489
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:17,680
Speaker 1: runs against Chase Anderson for that to happen? Like, well,

490
00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 1: this should have been done from the start, but hey,

491
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:19,919
Speaker 1: it worked.

492
00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:22,560
Speaker 2: It worked. You pose very good questions. But the big

493
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:25,120
Speaker 2: thing Saturday night was the master four for six rounds

494
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 2: of scoring position of course, why that damage came in

495
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 2: the first inning and then the Mets went silent for

496
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 2: about two whole hours?

497
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:32,399
Speaker 1: Got it? Got it?

498
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's you don't want to give it. Make

499
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 2: it too easy for us.

500
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,080
Speaker 1: It's been complete baseball game. Not yet, We're not there yet.

501
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 2: That would that wouldn't be any fun. I can't stand.

502
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:40,720
Speaker 2: I can't stand for that for a moment. But just

503
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 2: Dinny Diesel, Dinney Diesel's ripping.

504
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 1: So it was after the game, Pete brought up Pete

505
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,400
Speaker 1: Pete to clown man I love you because Pete. Pete.

506
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:51,200
Speaker 1: Pete is just like one of those guys you on

507
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 1: your team that keeps everybody loose at all times, but

508
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 1: he wants to win. He's not he's not like screwing around.

509
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:57,879
Speaker 1: He's not messing around kind of thing, which he's an adult.

510
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,359
Speaker 1: I wouldn't expect him to, but he he keeps everybody loose,

511
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,040
Speaker 1: but also like has his eye on the prize of like,

512
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 1: we gotta win this ball game. That's what that's what

513
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:06,480
Speaker 1: we're here to do. But I'm gonna keep you loose.

514
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:09,359
Speaker 1: And after the game he talked about he just casually

515
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,199
Speaker 1: dropped it in there. He's like, yeah, you know, we

516
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:12,360
Speaker 1: got this new hire in there.

517
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 2: Donnie's the approach coach.

518
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, the approach coach. He's really he really helped us

519
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:20,119
Speaker 1: out today. And then I think they asked Confordo afterwards,

520
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 1: so like what about Donnie and Canfordo just started dying

521
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:25,959
Speaker 1: laughing and he's like, yeah, sure, Like I guess like

522
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:29,200
Speaker 1: basically it's pretty obvious that dying doesn't exist, especially after

523
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:33,000
Speaker 1: oh wo whoa, whoa, Come on, well, I think Donnie

524
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,399
Speaker 1: does exist. There you go, but I think it just

525
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 1: might be an alternate or alternate ego for someone else

526
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 1: on this team, and I think that person might be

527
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 1: Pete Alonzo. I think Pete Alonzo might be Donnie Stevenson,

528
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 1: especially because after they asked I think Gelb's asked him,

529
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,479
Speaker 1: or Tacomo, one of those two asked him, what's Donnie's

530
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,120
Speaker 1: last name? And he goes, I can't remember, and then

531
00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:54,080
Speaker 1: like five minutes later, he's like, oh, it's Stevenson, like

532
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:57,880
Speaker 1: just pulls it up out of nowhere, which, like, whatever

533
00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:01,520
Speaker 1: Donnie Stevenson's doing, pay him more money, whatever it takes,

534
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:05,360
Speaker 1: keep him around. Because don Donnie Stevenson clearly fixed this team,

535
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 1: and they even talked about a little bit before the

536
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 1: game today. Apparently the Donnie Stevenson approach is elevate and celebrate,

537
00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 1: which that's what j That's what Jady Davis.

538
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,119
Speaker 2: That's gotta be sure. It's gotta say Diesel, Donnie, elevate commas,

539
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 2: celebrate that that's the.

540
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 1: Share, Celebrate the share. But that might that might actually

541
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 1: be the first Mets up merchandise right there. Keep that

542
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:25,680
Speaker 1: elevate and celebrate.

543
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 2: But since since the introduction of Donnie Diesel, the Mets

544
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:31,720
Speaker 2: are nine for I'm trying to count this at nine

545
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 2: for twenty one. With Rounders's cording position, that's a hell

546
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 2: of a lot better. So we did it. Our long

547
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:38,800
Speaker 2: national nightmare is over. The Mets can hit again, but

548
00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:42,080
Speaker 2: with frens'scording position besides the Francisco Lindor which whatever, don't

549
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:43,200
Speaker 2: even care, don't even.

550
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:47,560
Speaker 1: Care, Yeah, I like even care, Yeah don't. Yeah, you're right,

551
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:49,639
Speaker 1: don't even care. I mean I do, I do.

552
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 2: But like, well not right now. Too many, too many

553
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:52,159
Speaker 2: good things.

554
00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:54,840
Speaker 1: Too many good things to harp on the negative. And

555
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 1: I mean, let's be honest. Lindor is still so good

556
00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 1: in the field at shortstop. Is fantastic to watch.

557
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 2: It's amazing. And even he's at least been putting more

558
00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 2: of the bat on the ball, like he put three

559
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:06,880
Speaker 2: balls in play on Friday night over one hundred miles

560
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:10,720
Speaker 2: an hour, all off Chase Anderson, which is something that's something,

561
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,879
Speaker 2: something happened there tonight. He was he was the dreaded.

562
00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 2: I think he was over six or over five? Was

563
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,120
Speaker 2: oh for five, thank god, over five. He drew the walk.

564
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:21,400
Speaker 2: He drew the walk is in the eighth inning. Oh man,

565
00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 2: but we got done once. Just dines again his ear

566
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,119
Speaker 2: this week once Donni gets with lindor maybe has a

567
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 2: couple reps in the cage with him, like he'll be okay,

568
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:28,879
Speaker 2: it's coming around. Ye.

569
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:32,439
Speaker 1: It seems like Donnie Stephenson's able to do what you know,

570
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:34,960
Speaker 1: this mess coaching staff hasn't been able to do all year.

571
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,439
Speaker 1: So she got these guys thinking right, thinking aggressive at

572
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,960
Speaker 1: the plate, still being patient because we still are working walks,

573
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 1: which you love to see. The Mets are really good

574
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 1: at working a nice walk here. But now when they're

575
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 1: working these walks, they're driving these guys in and that's

576
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,120
Speaker 1: been the missing key, that's the missing ingredient all year.

577
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 2: It's fun and Donnie, Donnie definitely got confourd this year.

578
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:54,800
Speaker 2: This weekend Confourthy finally heat it up.

579
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:57,080
Speaker 1: He had a great couple of games, great.

580
00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:59,480
Speaker 2: Couple of games. Loves hitting in Philly, as you like

581
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:01,200
Speaker 2: to point out before we got on air. He went

582
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,480
Speaker 2: five to ten in the series. Two walks, two runs,

583
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,080
Speaker 2: three rabbis, the big home run on Saturday to give

584
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 2: the Mets to win, which was just an absolute godsend.

585
00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:11,919
Speaker 1: Needed it, needed it badly. This team needed it so

586
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 1: badly because we've been down on canforida. But we knew

587
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:16,679
Speaker 1: he was gonna turn around. We never thought that he

588
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:18,720
Speaker 1: was gonna stink. We were just like, hey, when's it

589
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,920
Speaker 1: gonna happen. It seems like we might be getting closer

590
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 1: to the regular Michael Confordo again, which you'll love to see.

591
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:26,480
Speaker 1: And the Mets team needed it, and he stepped up.

592
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 2: He is so bad. Yeah, he really did step up.

593
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:29,159
Speaker 2: That was such a clutch hit.

594
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,760
Speaker 1: That was so clutch, so big, because like that was

595
00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:34,960
Speaker 1: the Mets really did play a good baseball game, and

596
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 1: to lose a game like that I think would have

597
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,720
Speaker 1: been pretty demoralizing, especially after being so fired up to

598
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:41,960
Speaker 1: win this one after the night before. To come out

599
00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,480
Speaker 1: and just not get that win would have been tough.

600
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,480
Speaker 1: But they did. And that's that's a scrappy Mets team.

601
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:49,639
Speaker 1: They look like they're having fun again, and I love that.

602
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,359
Speaker 2: It's all thanks to Donnie.

603
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:56,199
Speaker 1: Donnie Stevenson, even Donny Sevehnson. If you're ever in a

604
00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 1: Queen's beer on me, I got you.

605
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:02,280
Speaker 2: Donnie beer in the sub right here. Yes, Taiwan looked

606
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,240
Speaker 2: really good and Saturday too. He didn't have his best stuff.

607
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 2: He battled again. He stuck with the sinkers a lot

608
00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:09,920
Speaker 2: a couple of K's phill He's a bulldog man. He's

609
00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 2: a bulldog. Phillies were putting the bat on the ball.

610
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 2: He gave that Ribby single the wheeler, which was a

611
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 2: backbreaker that really stunk at the time. But guys, the

612
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,680
Speaker 2: guy works, just a worker. Love to see that shit.

613
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, Taiwan goes out there and like you said, he

614
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 1: might not have his best stuff, but he will grind

615
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 1: through appearances. And that's what you need out of one

616
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:28,879
Speaker 1: of these back end guys is someone who's going to

617
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 1: go out there and battle and keep you in the game.

618
00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:32,960
Speaker 1: And that's exactly what he did. He didn't win us it,

619
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:34,160
Speaker 1: but he kept us close enough.

620
00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 2: Yet. He the one thing that scared me a little

621
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:38,400
Speaker 2: bit about him that I have lost. He's kind of starting

622
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 2: to taper down a little bit. He didn't touch ninety

623
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:42,159
Speaker 2: six first time all year, which is a little scary.

624
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:44,359
Speaker 2: By the end of the game, he was running out

625
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:46,439
Speaker 2: of gas even though he didn't even touch one hundred pitches,

626
00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 2: which I don't love that. But again, he battled, He

627
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 2: got asked me he had to get out. He kept

628
00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:52,960
Speaker 2: the damage off when the Phillies actually had a couple

629
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:54,920
Speaker 2: guys on base a few winnings like fourth, fifth, sixth,

630
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:57,200
Speaker 2: did we had to do? We had to do kept

631
00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 2: this position to win the game, and the Mets capitalized

632
00:24:59,600 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 2: on that.

633
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,320
Speaker 1: All you can ask and luckily for us, you didn't

634
00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 1: have to eat your words this series. Brad Miller, no

635
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:06,160
Speaker 1: big hits for Brad.

636
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:09,119
Speaker 2: Miller, verify. When he came up against Diaz on Saturday,

637
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,600
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I was. I was just literally thinking.

638
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,840
Speaker 2: My take was just like go spinning revolutions around my

639
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,040
Speaker 2: head like I'm gonnat shit. If I back to back

640
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:19,840
Speaker 2: nights had to eat a Chase Anderson take and a

641
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 2: Brad Miller take, I probably woudn't even be on the

642
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:22,680
Speaker 2: pod right now.

643
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:25,920
Speaker 1: Welcome to the world of making content for the Internet,

644
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,640
Speaker 1: where your words haunt you. You can you can now

645
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:30,680
Speaker 1: see how I feel and why I hate the Phillies

646
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,960
Speaker 1: so much, because when I say they're the fourth place

647
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:34,879
Speaker 1: Phillies team, all I can think about is when they

648
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:36,360
Speaker 1: beat the metsas Oh my god, what if they don't

649
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 1: finish from fourth place? Like what am I gonna do?

650
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:42,000
Speaker 2: But hey two and three begot him again? One another

651
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:43,760
Speaker 2: series from the Phillies. All you could just keep winning

652
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:45,600
Speaker 2: these series and that's continue to beat the Phillies. And

653
00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:47,399
Speaker 2: that's how you went to visions to beat the teams

654
00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:51,359
Speaker 2: in it. And right now, don't look that turned first again,

655
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:52,920
Speaker 2: that's turned first.

656
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:54,120
Speaker 1: How is that even possible?

657
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,919
Speaker 2: Division stinks? Retied with the Nationals, who we objectively think

658
00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 2: is a bad team.

659
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, which like they played the Marlins, who the Marlins

660
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 1: are starting to look like the Marlins. Finally, they just

661
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 1: their offense has been terrible all year. But I think

662
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 1: Jazz hit the I L. I think Brian Anderson's on

663
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:10,240
Speaker 1: the I L.

664
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,040
Speaker 2: I can't even blame them. It's also how stupid this

665
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,399
Speaker 2: is major League Baseball schedule that we have three separate

666
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:20,160
Speaker 2: series against the Phillies before we played the Braves. Once

667
00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,199
Speaker 2: the Braves can't hit all season, we don't get one

668
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 2: shot against them. There are people inside of Major League

669
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 2: Baseball who are literally revolutionizing the world of statistics and

670
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,879
Speaker 2: data analytics, yet there's not one simpleton who can actually

671
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 2: make a coherent schedule. It's insane.

672
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:37,360
Speaker 1: No, Yeah, the Braves have been looking horrendous again. They

673
00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 1: are in They're they're pitching. I mean, this isn't a

674
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:41,919
Speaker 1: Braves podcast, but it's a Mets podcast. Has to do

675
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:45,720
Speaker 1: with it. They're pitching is bad, but.

676
00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:49,119
Speaker 2: I guess I don't even know what we've got. We're

677
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,240
Speaker 2: running around this podcast like chickens without heads.

678
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 1: Which is fair. I think if there was ever one

679
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 1: for this to happen, it would be this one, because

680
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:59,399
Speaker 1: Game three was so crazy, being down early or getting

681
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:02,400
Speaker 1: the getting down to start. Then we tied it right

682
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 1: back up, then we went down, then we brought it back,

683
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:07,800
Speaker 1: and then Jose Alvarado and the Phillies bullpen comes in

684
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:09,719
Speaker 1: and does what we've been waiting for the Phillies bullpen

685
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,200
Speaker 1: to do all year, which is just implode. And they

686
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:15,679
Speaker 1: finally imploded against us, which was fantastic to see. And

687
00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 1: then we had Edwin Das come in and do Edwin

688
00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:21,399
Speaker 1: Diaz things in non safe situations, blow the game, I

689
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,960
Speaker 1: mean against Reece Hoskins, who I think, if you guys

690
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,280
Speaker 1: have been listening to this podcast or anything that I've

691
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 1: ever done, when I mentioned Reee Hoskins, I hate his

692
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,399
Speaker 1: fucking guts. I hate Reece Hoskins. He's up there as

693
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:32,920
Speaker 1: one of my least favorite players of all time, and

694
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:34,800
Speaker 1: it was such a lock he was gonna hit the

695
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 1: home run, but then it wasn't a home run, it

696
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,880
Speaker 1: was a double. I mean, like, this game was insane.

697
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:42,359
Speaker 1: I bottom line, that's all'm gonna say.

698
00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:44,760
Speaker 2: Bottom line, lie ball on line is true. That wow.

699
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 2: I didn't even think to put those two together. But

700
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,720
Speaker 2: the ball certainly has never lied. Ball's never lied.

701
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:51,920
Speaker 1: Once, not once, and uh, tonight it definitely didn't because

702
00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:54,200
Speaker 1: the Mets ended up getting the win. Also, they should

703
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:56,480
Speaker 1: have tossed Reecee Hoskins at the when he was in

704
00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:58,520
Speaker 1: the dugout screaming fuck you at the other get him

705
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,040
Speaker 1: out of here, get this, get the clown off the field.

706
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,119
Speaker 2: The Phillies were being a little bit passive aggressive his

707
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 2: whole series about the bad umpiring that I don't remember

708
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:07,159
Speaker 2: what the call was right, and I was like, I

709
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:11,760
Speaker 2: had the base obstruction. It was obstruction call that was brutal. Oh, horrendous, horrendous.

710
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:14,560
Speaker 2: Guys should be fired. Also, there was a couple of

711
00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 2: questionable calls today. McCutcheon, who was a big time to

712
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:19,680
Speaker 2: center the other night. During that call, he's he after

713
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,480
Speaker 2: striking out on a questionable pitch, he walked the entire

714
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:25,640
Speaker 2: way of the first base. Just passive, aggressive as fuck.

715
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:29,200
Speaker 1: There is nothing that the umpires love to do more

716
00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 1: than just punish a guy for speaking out on them.

717
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 1: And Andrew McCutcheon got to.

718
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:37,560
Speaker 2: See that, To get to see that, Oh my god,

719
00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 2: I don't even I like I forgot the thing that

720
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:41,200
Speaker 2: happen early in this game, like.

721
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:43,760
Speaker 1: Oh, at the beginning of the games irrelevant. I remember

722
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 1: the row. I remember from the rally.

723
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 2: On just like even just from Castras inding on, like

724
00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,520
Speaker 2: that was the whole thing. Like God, that Araby Castro.

725
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:51,960
Speaker 2: That's stunk. That's severally stun.

726
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:54,920
Speaker 1: That did stink. But you know what, it don't matter.

727
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 1: Don't matter because the Mets came out with that fatdby

728
00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 1: when we win the series win does a win?

729
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:01,080
Speaker 2: Oh?

730
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:06,280
Speaker 1: And that's that's that was such a Mets lose game

731
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 1: and the Mets won it. If that doesn't make you

732
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 1: feel good about the Steve Cohen era with the Willponds there,

733
00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:12,960
Speaker 1: we lose that game. There is no doubt in my mind.

734
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,240
Speaker 1: If the Willpons are owning this team, we lose that game.

735
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,840
Speaker 1: But Steve Cohen and his twenty billion fucking dollars, we

736
00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:19,040
Speaker 1: get the w and I love it.

737
00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 2: You know, it made me really happy. I was getting

738
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:24,360
Speaker 2: yellol Mets on Twitter and like just text messages from friends.

739
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:27,040
Speaker 2: For that entire forty five seconds that we thought that

740
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 2: Ree Hoskins ball was out, everyone in the world was like,

741
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 2: they're the Mets. They're the Mets again. Here the Mets again.

742
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,920
Speaker 2: Well wrong, motherfuckers, we got you this time.

743
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:36,400
Speaker 1: The Mets win that game. The call goes our way.

744
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 1: How many times has there been a close call where.

745
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 2: It doesn't go on It seems like every time, every single.

746
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 1: Time, every time, And we caught a fucking break because

747
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:46,360
Speaker 1: I honestly don't know if that ball hit the rail

748
00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:47,959
Speaker 1: or if it hit a seat. I could not tell.

749
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:52,280
Speaker 2: Why is it not the yellow line? Every single stadium

750
00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 2: in baseball is yellow line. These idiots in Philadelphia there's

751
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 2: no yellow line.

752
00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:58,160
Speaker 1: How dude, we were talking, It was well, it's like

753
00:29:58,160 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 1: the Cup Series two where the Mets hit went off

754
00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:02,040
Speaker 1: the top of the basket, where can fourda hit went

755
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 1: off the basket, it bounced back into the fields. Like,

756
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:06,960
Speaker 1: what are what's going on with baseball stadiums? Now? We're

757
00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:09,280
Speaker 1: over the fence, like you can have things hanging out

758
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 1: over the fence, or the fence is no longer actually

759
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:13,600
Speaker 1: the fence, it's the little thing behind it. I mean

760
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,040
Speaker 1: basically it hit the thing like in left field. For

761
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:20,080
Speaker 1: at City Field where the M and M party zone

762
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:22,719
Speaker 1: or whatever it is, it basically hit that railing and

763
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 1: at City Field that'd be a home run. But in

764
00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:27,120
Speaker 1: Citizens Bank it's in play for some reason, which will

765
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 1: take it.

766
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:29,800
Speaker 2: It was also funny that everyone was talking shit like, oh,

767
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:31,400
Speaker 2: I can't beie, that wasn't a home run. Yeah yeah.

768
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 2: The invescurageon popped up the statcast stat that that's a

769
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,200
Speaker 2: only home run five at the thirty part.

770
00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:38,840
Speaker 1: Five, and I was like, this cheap little league gas stadium.

771
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 1: You want to know what the other five? Four are

772
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 1: probably Yankee Stadium and whatever their little league stadiums exist.

773
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,120
Speaker 1: What a what a series? Let's talk about the next one.

774
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's talk about the next series. Met's happen?

775
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 1: Wo do we even play?

776
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 2: I don't even know the Cardinals the Saint Louis Cardinals

777
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:56,720
Speaker 2: four game said. The Mets basically have have punted tomorrow's

778
00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 2: game because de Gram seemed like he wanted to get

779
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:01,600
Speaker 2: the extra day rest, and statistically in his career he's

780
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 2: much better with the extra day's rest. I'm fine with that,

781
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 2: but we're gonna have a little Luke CAZy. Tomorrow we

782
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:08,920
Speaker 2: might see Sean Reid Foldy once again. Here's gonna be

783
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:10,720
Speaker 2: no Da. He's gonna be no Castro. It's gonna be

784
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:13,000
Speaker 2: no May. It's gonna Tomorrow's gonna be a whirlwind.

785
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:15,960
Speaker 1: Tomorrow is gonna be a game where the Mets need

786
00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:19,120
Speaker 1: to score about fifteen to probably keep it close. And

787
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 1: who do we go up against?

788
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 2: We are going up against? Oh fuck Adam Wayne Right?

789
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:27,920
Speaker 2: Oh that's just that.

790
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:31,120
Speaker 1: Okay, we lost that chalking up for an l Adam.

791
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,080
Speaker 1: Wayne Wright could be throwing sixty five miles an hour,

792
00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:34,000
Speaker 1: which he's pretty close to.

793
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 2: Doing, right, but is actually having a fantastic season. He's

794
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,680
Speaker 2: been so good this year. He's complete.

795
00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:42,960
Speaker 1: But like, but is he actually? Is he just performing well?

796
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:43,920
Speaker 1: Or is his stuff like better?

797
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:45,880
Speaker 2: No, this isn't like John Lester good. This is like

798
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:48,320
Speaker 2: he's actually he actually looks like pretty good. He's striking,

799
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:50,880
Speaker 2: He's striking guy's eyes, mixing up his pitches decently. This,

800
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:54,760
Speaker 2: of course no velocity. But Wayne Wright is striking out

801
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:58,480
Speaker 2: his highest strike gut rate for his career this year.

802
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,160
Speaker 1: Wow, that's crazy to hear, because what was he thirty

803
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 1: eight thirty nine.

804
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,640
Speaker 2: Yeah. Oh, actually I have not. I'm not up to

805
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:06,440
Speaker 2: date very well in the Cardinals news. This could I'll

806
00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:08,800
Speaker 2: be irrelevant by the time this comes out. But he

807
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 2: was placed on the COVID list after a family member

808
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:12,280
Speaker 2: tested positive on April twenty ninth.

809
00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:15,240
Speaker 1: Okay, then I guess Adam Wayne Wright is not pitching tomorrow.

810
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:15,760
Speaker 1: I mean maybe he is.

811
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:17,520
Speaker 2: Espencil has him there, But I don't want to see

812
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:19,080
Speaker 2: Adam Wayne Right. I don't need to hear. I don't

813
00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 2: need to see that beltro on highlight. I just that's

814
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 2: that's all we're gonna say. That's the last thing I need.

815
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:26,600
Speaker 1: So we get waynewright Game one going up against Luke CAZy.

816
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 2: And also a quick quick aside. There was another awful

817
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:33,680
Speaker 2: stupid thing that vest Gerson said today that's totally that

818
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:36,240
Speaker 2: I totally forgot about. First of all, you know, a

819
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,880
Speaker 2: broadcast is dog shit when there are multiple times they

820
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 2: backtrack comments because they said an overtly wrong thing. In

821
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:45,400
Speaker 2: like the second inning they talked about how the Mets

822
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:47,400
Speaker 2: missed out in real Muto in the off season, pivoted

823
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 2: to McCann and then hundreds of thousand, one hundred thousand

824
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:51,600
Speaker 2: people were like you guys know, he signed like two

825
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:54,440
Speaker 2: months before the Philly side real Muto, Right, yeah, Vestcersion

826
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:57,160
Speaker 2: apologized two winnings late, they had the timing wrong, even

827
00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:58,600
Speaker 2: though he easily could have said that was just like

828
00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:00,959
Speaker 2: a misunderstanding because the Mets new the price Stallary moved

829
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:02,520
Speaker 2: to so they pivoted quickly. But he's just so much

830
00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 2: an idiot he couldn't even fix that. And then the

831
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 2: met they put up a big fat graphic of notable

832
00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:10,600
Speaker 2: Mets free agent acquisitions first year with the team, and

833
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,200
Speaker 2: here were the four Mets free agent acquisitions. Bob Boby

834
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:17,520
Speaker 2: can't wait to hear this, Bobby, Mike Piazza, what Carlos

835
00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:18,760
Speaker 2: beltran for Cisco Lindor.

836
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:23,600
Speaker 1: Mike Piazza was not a free agent acquisition.

837
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 2: It was Francisco Lindor.

838
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:26,440
Speaker 1: Oh my god.

839
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:31,520
Speaker 2: It was about how good all these players were immediately

840
00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:34,280
Speaker 2: after joined the Mets. Every Mets fan knows that Carlos

841
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:37,480
Speaker 2: Beltron was awful that first year with the Mets.

842
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 1: Wasn't Piazza also struggling at the start too, I thought,

843
00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 1: And then like he I know, he got hot and

844
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:44,320
Speaker 1: was fine, of course, but I'm pretty sure at the

845
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:46,360
Speaker 1: beginning Piazza was pressing a lot as well, because he

846
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:47,719
Speaker 1: came to New York and wanted to perform.

847
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:51,640
Speaker 2: They also put Bobby on that graphic with one with

848
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:53,600
Speaker 2: two guys who are on the precipice of the Hall

849
00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:54,920
Speaker 2: of Fame and one guy who's in the middle of

850
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:58,240
Speaker 2: his prime of an incredible career. I get, I get

851
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:00,760
Speaker 2: he was better than most of us. Remember who the

852
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 2: fuck is doing this shit for ESPN?

853
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:04,320
Speaker 1: Why would you not put Jason Bay on there if

854
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 1: you wanted to show like about guy notable free Asian acquisitions.

855
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:09,160
Speaker 2: You bring a great point to the table.

856
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:13,719
Speaker 1: Jason Bay exists. I mean, we really, we went all

857
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:16,120
Speaker 1: the way back to Bobby Bonia for no reason, just

858
00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 1: to rub salt. How about John Olerude? John Olrard's a

859
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:20,480
Speaker 1: better player than Bobby Bonia.

860
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 2: It's freaking terrible. I'm sure there's millions of better Freegan acquisitions,

861
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:25,719
Speaker 2: bad freezingan acquisition the Mets have made sense?

862
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:30,200
Speaker 1: Then Cliff Floyd, let's bring up Cliff Floyd mo Yeah,

863
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,360
Speaker 1: move on, I mean, there's just what a weird group

864
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:36,480
Speaker 1: of for weirdly hand picked group. But anyway back to

865
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:39,840
Speaker 1: the Cardinals. Now, fuck ESPN broadcast. They stink. They stink

866
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:44,160
Speaker 1: on ice. Uh, Cardinals are just an okay team. I

867
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,040
Speaker 1: don't know what to think about this team, Like I'm

868
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:48,320
Speaker 1: I've gone they were the best team in the division

869
00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:50,880
Speaker 1: to maybe they're really not that because they're pitching is

870
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:54,280
Speaker 1: not particularly great. But their bullpen gets it done.

871
00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:56,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, their bullpen does get it done. I mean, Alex

872
00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:58,440
Speaker 2: Rayce had a good year as a closer. He's near

873
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 2: the top of the league in saves, but a look

874
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:02,239
Speaker 2: under the hood is perfields are not good at all.

875
00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:04,680
Speaker 2: He's walked almost many guys he's struck out. Like that's

876
00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:06,920
Speaker 2: not that's gonna that's gonna catch up to him sooner

877
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:09,719
Speaker 2: or later. Genevonne Gago is still very good. John Gant

878
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:11,120
Speaker 2: used to be a great reliever, but now he's just

879
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:12,240
Speaker 2: simply a bad starter.

880
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 1: And yeah, which is such a weird move that they made.

881
00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:16,960
Speaker 2: And like, the Cardinals have a good record and their

882
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,320
Speaker 2: way about five hundred, but they've already played the Marlins,

883
00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,440
Speaker 2: they've played the Pirates. Like this roster is not very good,

884
00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:24,200
Speaker 2: Like there's no reason the me shouldn't beat this team.

885
00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:27,120
Speaker 1: The only thing that scares me right now about the Cardinals,

886
00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:28,880
Speaker 1: I mean, they have gold Schmidt and Aeronauta, which are

887
00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:30,960
Speaker 1: just two studs. I love both of those guys. But

888
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:33,560
Speaker 1: then you have the met Killers, which are Paul Dejung,

889
00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:35,600
Speaker 1: who's gonna hit three or four home runs this series.

890
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:38,000
Speaker 1: I'm just ready for it. And Yadi Air Molino, who's

891
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:39,520
Speaker 1: probably also gonna do the same this.

892
00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:41,600
Speaker 2: He's on the il, he's on the I l he

893
00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:44,800
Speaker 2: might be back for this series. Unknown. But Andrew Kneiser Canezer,

894
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,160
Speaker 2: Kniezer Nyser, I don't know how to pronounce that he's

895
00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:49,239
Speaker 2: actually been decent in his stead. But yeah, the Air

896
00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:51,359
Speaker 2: is also just like Wayne Wright for some reason, having

897
00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:54,000
Speaker 2: the best season of his career. Yeah, as a as

898
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:54,720
Speaker 2: a fossil.

899
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:59,040
Speaker 1: But this Cardinals team always plays the Mets well. I

900
00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:01,200
Speaker 1: will say that it's always a tough series with the Cardinals.

901
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:02,920
Speaker 1: This is a team that you're just gonna run through.

902
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:07,120
Speaker 1: It's gonna be grind. I think we should win this series.

903
00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:09,040
Speaker 1: So I think we're a better team than the Cardinals got.

904
00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:10,160
Speaker 2: We got four games against them.

905
00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:10,680
Speaker 1: Let's just try.

906
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:12,239
Speaker 2: Let's get to the way.

907
00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:17,120
Speaker 1: The way this team's hitting is a positive sign, to

908
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:17,400
Speaker 1: say the.

909
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,000
Speaker 2: Least, very positive signing, probably positive sign. I know, we're

910
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:21,840
Speaker 2: facing Wayne Right, who's been very good this season, but

911
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:23,400
Speaker 2: you should find a way to hit on on Wayne Right.

912
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:26,399
Speaker 2: Then we get Juan Young Kim, who he is gonna

913
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:28,840
Speaker 2: be so annoying to face one Young Kim because he throws,

914
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:33,839
Speaker 2: like a soft estimate, like eight different pitches. They none

915
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:35,560
Speaker 2: of them exceed ninety miles an hour.

916
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:39,360
Speaker 1: None of them were particularly like anything insane either. He

917
00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:42,320
Speaker 1: just he's the classic, like I have a lot of pitches,

918
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:44,480
Speaker 1: so that's my thing. Yeah, I throw a lot of

919
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:46,200
Speaker 1: different pitches, definitely, And I'm.

920
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,120
Speaker 2: Sure we'll score. I'm sure. I'm sure he'll go toe

921
00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:50,239
Speaker 2: to toe with the ground on Tuesday. It'll be a one.

922
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:51,960
Speaker 2: It'll be a one to one game in the eighth.

923
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:54,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, you gotta keep the Mets fans on

924
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:56,919
Speaker 1: the edge of their seats. We can't eight runs, five runs.

925
00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:57,799
Speaker 1: It's so too much.

926
00:36:58,000 --> 00:36:59,920
Speaker 2: That was another ridiculous question, and going all the way back,

927
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:01,880
