1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,800 Speaker 1: From my standpoint being an absolutely unbiased Angels player, I 2 00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:05,720 Speaker 1: think all the homers we hit were legit, and all 3 00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:08,000 Speaker 1: the homers they hit, we're cheek you know. That's that's 4 00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:08,560 Speaker 1: how it goes. 5 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:14,120 Speaker 2: Angels hummeled the Rays. 6 00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:18,239 Speaker 3: Yesterday, AJ and I were talking about the ballpark they're 7 00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:20,480 Speaker 3: down at Steime Berner, and we talked to Ken about 8 00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:22,919 Speaker 3: it a little bit.

Is it a what is it a 14 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:37,440 Speaker 2: jet stream? 15 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:39,199 Speaker 5: It's almost like somebody said that when they said they 16 00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:41,839 Speaker 5: were going to be playing at that park, Like watching 17 00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 5: dudes on the Yankees, like the Beasts, because I would 18 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 5: never go to the games. They would always put me 19 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,159 Speaker 5: in like the really good players group. I mean you're 20 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:55,320 Speaker 5: talking like Greg Bird, g Jonkey, ball game, El Gary, 21 00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 5: all these dudes that just are like, I'm hitting the 22 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 5: ball to right field and VP and it's just he's 23 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 5: going into Dale Maybury. 24 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:03,800 Speaker 2: Why does it is it a jet stream? 25 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 5: Is that it must be a jet stream? But yeah, 26 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:08,200 Speaker 5: before they changed all of it, before they put everything 27 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 5: out there. The park played fair, but the fence, it 28 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 5: felt like defence was like thirty feet farther back. It 29 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 5: used to be deep in the gaps and in uh 30 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 5: the Florida State League it played huge. 31 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,399 Speaker 3: Hey, we've got Kyle Hendricks from the Angels joining us 32 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,120 Speaker 3: right now.

Like? 40 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 2: What did you just witness from your team? 41 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 3: You you did, no big deal, five shoutout innings, two hits, 42 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 3: two walks for strikeouts, five balls, But what's going on there? 43 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 2: And how was that? Yeah? 44 00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: Definitely listening to what you guys were saying there, and 45 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 1: I couldn't agree more. I think from my standpoint, being 46 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: an absolutely unbiased Angels player, I think all the homers 47 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 1: we hit were legit and all the homers they hit 48 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 1: were cheap. You know, That's how it goes. 49 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 5: That's definitely how it goes, except you pitchers, you all 50 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,799 Speaker 5: sitting a dugout together and you're like, bro. 51 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 4: How did you do this? 52 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 5: My four seam fastball up on the top of the zone. 53 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 4: It's just gonna get rocked. 54 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 5: And the professors are over there, like what you gotta 55 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 5: do is you just gotta sink it and caught it 56 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 5: a little bit, just sick seek a little lower below 57 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 5: the zone. What were the conversations with you starters after 58 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 5: you pitched and before guys pitched? 59 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, man, you know us too well for sure. We're 60 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 1: definitely in a group over there having a conversation of like, 61 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: what the heck is going on here? And for me, 62 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: I think that's definitely wrong. It's all luck. I'm like 63 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: I got through that. It was lucky. I missed some 64 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 1: barrels the day games. I'll say, during the day it's 65 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,920 Speaker 1: definitely different. The ball is flying more. There's like a 66 00:02:57,960 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 1: jet stream out to right field something with the win. 67 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: And during at night, during for night games, it seems 68 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 1: to be playing more fair. So I was just lucky 69 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: I got a night game, but just of such a 70 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 1: fun series, man, fun for our guys and to go 71 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: there and hit homers like that. You know, everybody's loving that, 72 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 1: so we were having a good time. 73 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,360 Speaker 6: I want to talk a little about where you're from, 74 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 6: how you grew up. I mean, it's a twenty miles 75 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 6: from Angels Stadium. Now you're playing for him dream come 76 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,239 Speaker 6: true growing up there, that's what you said. Talk a 77 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 6: little bit about how cool this is and how you 78 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 6: know your family are excited. Is this for you to 79 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,519 Speaker 6: play that close to a ballpark that you pretty much 80 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 6: grew up in your backyard? 81 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, one hundred percent of Todd. I think, you know, 82 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: the feeling just surreal, you know, growing up going to 83 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: that ballpark with my dad and my mom, just being 84 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 1: a little kid loving the game. That's all it was. 85 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: And now to come full circle twenty thirty years later, 86 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: whatever it is to be in the stadium playing, having 87 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: my family come to the games, it really doesn't even 88 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 1: feel real. So it's just so cool. I'm trying to 89 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: soak up every minute of it. 90 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 5: Do you feel like if you had played out there 91 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 5: when you were a kid, when you were first coming 92 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 5: up in the big leagues, you wouldn't appreciate it as 93 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 5: much as you do now. 94 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 1: One hundred percent. I think the experience is getting away 95 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:19,160 Speaker 1: from home, you know, leaving that being uncomfortable, seeing how 96 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: all that played out, getting the experience of the big leagues, 97 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: going throughout the whole country, and now kind of towards 98 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 1: the end of my career being able to come back 99 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 1: with all that perspective definitely made it different. It would 100 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: may have been a little overwhelming if I would have 101 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 1: done at the beginning of my career, you know, just 102 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,599 Speaker 1: having so many people so close to you, but now 103 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 1: coming back home at the end having that perspective, keeping 104 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: it all under control. I'm just really enjoying it so 105 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: much right now. 106 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 5: I bring this up all the time because it's players 107 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 5: talking to or ex players talking to current players. And 108 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 5: if you were a rookie out there, would you have 109 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 5: played for free for the first few years until you 110 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 5: figured out the whole like not everybody gets tickets. Now 111 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,160 Speaker 5: you're vet, You're like, oh no, we only get like 112 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 5: two tickets, and uh, my wife and her friend are 113 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 5: going to take them. 114 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 1: That's exactly right, man. You know, you know exactly how 115 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:10,920 Speaker 1: to play it. In the beginning, you're giving everybody tickets. 116 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:12,279 Speaker 1: So if I would have been at home, that would 117 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: have been the problem. You would have been playing for free. 118 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 1: But no, as the years go you kind of find 119 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:18,479 Speaker 1: your group, You kind of find who's close to you. 120 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: Those people stay the same. So now to come back home, Yeah, 121 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: you can fulfill a few other requests, but you also 122 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: know how to skate around it a little bit. Just 123 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 1: like you said, I want to. 124 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 6: Talk a little bit about when Kratty and I played. 125 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 6: We played against you a lot. I've faced you a 126 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 6: lot of times when you were with the Cubs. For 127 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 6: some reason, I don't know if anybody told you how 128 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 6: to little tell when you pitch. I don't know if 129 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 6: you've ever heard it. Has anybody ever talked to you 130 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 6: about that little an? I'm just being honest. 131 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 4: Have I lost? 132 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:48,919 Speaker 1: Yeah? 133 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 4: No, I'm good. Can you still hear me? Yeah? 134 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:52,039 Speaker 1: He's got you, gotcha? 135 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,279 Speaker 4: You got me? Okay, good? So for me? 136 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 6: Honestly, I guess when you came up you could kind 137 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:02,279 Speaker 6: of see the ball. So so what have people told 138 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,480 Speaker 6: you about that? And is that something that you say, 139 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 6: you know, forget about it, I'm just going to pitch. 140 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:07,919 Speaker 6: Or is it something that you kind of tried and 141 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 6: worked on. 142 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: No, it's definitely something you have to try to eliminate. 143 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: But as the saying goes, I mean, a lot of 144 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 1: pitchers do tip, and once you're a tipper, kind of 145 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: always a tipper, that's what they say. So at the 146 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 1: end of the day, the thought that takes over for 147 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 1: me is a good pitch is going to be a 148 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,040 Speaker 1: good pitch. A good pitch can get a good hitter 149 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,679 Speaker 1: out a lot of times. But for sure, it's something 150 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 1: you want to focus on. It's something I've always had 151 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,039 Speaker 1: trouble with, something we've always been trying to take video 152 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,280 Speaker 1: of and make a change. I feel like I've gotten 153 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,800 Speaker 1: a little bit better at it, and it's gotten to 154 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 1: the point now where you can notice kind of what 155 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,039 Speaker 1: teams are, what hitters see it, and which ones don't, 156 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 1: and that's when you really have to make the adjustment. 157 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, as a pitcher, 158 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,160 Speaker 1: you're really just trying to focus on making one good 159 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:52,160 Speaker 1: pitch at a time and hopefully that plays out over 160 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: the course of a season. 161 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, but did you watch Todd swing and on deck 162 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 5: circle and go, There's no way this dude should have 163 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 5: a three seventy five batting average. There's no way he 164 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:08,599 Speaker 5: should have a one thousand ops against me, and you go, Okay, 165 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 5: I was probably tipping when I was facing the Reds. 166 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 5: So like, there's certain guys that you look at and 167 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 5: you're like, man, like, if I had ever gotten a 168 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 5: hit off, you'd be like, golly, Catcher must have told 169 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 5: him what was coming. 170 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: No, definitely not true. Definitely not true. Anybody I get out. 171 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 1: I chalk it up to luck. But you talked about phrases, 172 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: his swinging the nown deck circle. But then you go 173 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: look at the video and it's just barrels everywhere. Okay, 174 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: so you gotta you gotta trust the information, trust the video. 175 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 1: You see Yep, there's barrels all over the yard. So 176 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 1: again you just try to maybe not let him beat you. 177 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: And I would have been probably better off walking him 178 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 1: more at the time. 179 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 4: But go ahead, No, that's boloney. At the end. I 180 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 4: didn't I didn't know, and I'll be honest with you. 181 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 6: I didn't know about it when I was with Cincinnati 182 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 6: because I didn't trust. 183 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 4: Anybody and if they would tell me. 184 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 6: And then as I got older, I'm like, I need 185 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 6: this help as much as possible. And I'm gonna tell 186 00:07:57,920 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 6: you the one time I saw I was with the Mets, 187 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 6: I came in and I think I pinched it. I 188 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 6: hit a double off the wall against you, and they're like, 189 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 6: I'm telling you, when his hand goes up, you're gonna 190 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 6: either see his it was either curled or straight. I 191 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 6: forget what it was. And I had everyone and sometimes 192 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 6: you still can't even hit it. Like the worst part 193 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 6: for me when I knew what was coming and I 194 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 6: still couldn't hit it. That's when you know you have 195 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 6: to think about retirement, because that's but that was that 196 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 6: was probably the only time I had it. But it 197 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 6: was just always something that came up. Watch his hands, 198 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 6: watch his hands. But sometimes you were quick you couldn't 199 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 6: see it. I'm like, that's it, man, I need to stop. 200 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:37,559 Speaker 1: So that's all, Yeah, exactly, totally. It's part of the game. 201 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 1: And you're right, some guys love it. Some guys don't 202 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 1: want to know anything about it, and so for me 203 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 1: to focus on it fullheartedly is tough. But like you said, 204 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 1: you notice the kind of keep up and you notice 205 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 1: the guys that are really getting it, and that's when 206 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 1: you have to change. And once you make one different, 207 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:55,080 Speaker 1: sometimes they'll abandon it, go to a different setup. So yeah, 208 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 1: you just really got to stay on top of it 209 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 1: as a picture. 210 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 4: For sure. 211 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,840 Speaker 3: AJ is time for people to get some new clubs, 212 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 3: and to do that they need to go to their 213 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 3: local PXG for a fitting, right. 214 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 7: No doubt. I was there today. I've been there before. 215 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 7: Last time I was there, they gave me this killer gapage. 216 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 7: Look at that sweet spot, Scott, it is worn out. 217 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 7: That is right in the sweet spot right there. So 218 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 7: I went and got new clubs today, new irons. But 219 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 7: more importantly, I got this bad boy. I got me 220 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 7: a new putter. This is my old putter. 221 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 5: It's on order. 222 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 7: Yes, that's my putter cover PXG Mustang putter. Now I'm 223 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,079 Speaker 7: going to the Allen putter. They talked me into it 224 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 7: because I was draining some putts today. Bob, the guy 225 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 7: who helped me out, He helped me with my irons. 226 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 7: He got them teed up perfectly. But then we went 227 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 7: to the putting green. I was draining them putts because 228 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 7: that's the most important part of golf. 229 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 2: PXG fittings are fun. 230 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 3: Schedule you're fitting today, as you can hear from AJ 231 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 3: For a limited time, you could save up to twenty 232 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 3: percent on your entire order. 233 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 2: Head over to PXG dot com. 234 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 1: Slash foul. 235 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 3: That's pxg dot com slash foul to save up to 236 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 3: twenty percent on your entire order.

And how 240 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 5: is it to watch as a teammate, Like, you're like, 241 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 5: you know, I saw you a little bit, like, not 242 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:14,719 Speaker 5: too much, but you're he's a beast right now? 243 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 1: Yes, absolutely, man, what he's doing is so fun to watch, 244 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 1: and I think it goes back to the changes, the 245 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 1: adjustments he was willing to make, and the work he 246 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:27,679 Speaker 1: put in the off season. He absolutely got after it. 247 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:29,839 Speaker 1: He came in. I didn't see him or know him 248 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 1: that well obviously last year, but looking at some past 249 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 1: video hearing some things about him from all the guys here, 250 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 1: he clearly just got after it in the offseason, worked 251 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:43,079 Speaker 1: so hard, changed his swing, made big adjustments, and you're 252 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: seeing it pay off right here. I mean, the confidence 253 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: level is obviously sky high. You guys know from playing 254 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 1: when confidence is up, you're gonna have a really good 255 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 1: chance every time up there. So I mean, he's been 256 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:53,960 Speaker 1: a huge piece for us so far this year. 257 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,559 Speaker 5: It's been awesome to watch swing changes happen all the time. 258 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 5: Pitching mechanics, you're always tweak stuff. Did you ever try 259 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 5: because he went to the teacher man stuff and you 260 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 5: know it's that back leg, you know, coming through the 261 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 5: ball judge style, and it's working out for him. Did 262 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 5: you ever try to hit like a gimmick thing as 263 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 5: a pitcher where it's like everybody starts throwing the weighted 264 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 5: balls and you're like, I am gonna throw this ball 265 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:22,319 Speaker 5: upper ninety ninety point seven, ninety point eight, Like, did 266 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,439 Speaker 5: you ever get into any of those gimmick things and 267 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:26,560 Speaker 5: what year did you do it? 268 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 4: Yeah? 269 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 1: You know, for me, I throw eighty five. I don't 270 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 1: throw hard at all. I can't be one of those 271 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: guys searching for Vilo, you know, So the gimmick's never 272 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: really connected with me, just because I think I'm that guy. 273 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 1: I'm just completely different. I don't throw hard at all. 274 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 1: But it's funny you brought that up. One of the 275 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 1: things was the weighted balls. After my injury. I had 276 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 1: a shoulder injury in twenty one twenty two. Coming back 277 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:54,320 Speaker 1: from that using using the weighted balls just to cut 278 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,960 Speaker 1: down my volume, so using it more for warm up, 279 00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 1: you know, maybe searching for a little vilo. That'd be 280 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 1: great if you get it, but more so just cutting 281 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 1: down the volume. I'm a guy that likes to throw 282 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 1: a lot. I think that was the cause of some 283 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 1: of these little injury stuff. You want to be out 284 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: there and be consistent and be that guy for your 285 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 1: team every fifth day. So yeah, I've I've kept up 286 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:15,320 Speaker 1: with the times, as they say, as much as you 287 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 1: can stay with the way the ball's gotten new information. 288 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,079 Speaker 1: I think you have to keep adapting with the times, 289 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 1: but know what's right for you. Of course, at the 290 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 1: end of. 291 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 5: The day, adapting with the times. You've seen some IVY 292 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 5: leaguers take jobs in the front office. I want to 293 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 5: this is kind of like a two part question. As 294 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 5: an IVY leaguer, do you look at like front office 295 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 5: jobs but also as a strike throwing person who can 296 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 5: throw the ball down in a way and get a 297 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 5: lot of outs. If you took over an organization in 298 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,320 Speaker 5: that sense, like a Chris Young or a Craig Breslo 299 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 5: type of way, would you be okay or able to 300 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:55,960 Speaker 5: teach pictures to throw strikes and locate because everybody and 301 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 5: their mother teaches dudes to throw harder, and who cares 302 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 5: where it goes because you are the poster child of 303 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,439 Speaker 5: somebody who has been able to succeed in this game 304 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 5: where everybody says velocity is the only way. 305 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a great question, man, and there's there's definitely 306 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 1: a lot to that. So I think at the end 307 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 1: of the day, if you can command the baseball and 308 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 1: throw it where you want to, that's going to be 309 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 1: the best results. Now, of course, if you can do 310 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 1: that at one hundred miles an hour, you're gonna be 311 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 1: a lot better than a guy at ninety miles an hour. 312 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 1: So I think you have to have a good balance 313 00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 1: with it. Number one is you have to know who 314 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 1: you are. Number one is a pitcher. So yeah, somebody 315 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 1: taking over front office, they just need to know who 316 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 1: their personnel is, who they have as their players. From there, 317 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,440 Speaker 1: I think you put in the work on the side 318 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 1: and the preparation. Maybe you chase below, maybe you're working 319 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: on things mechanically, yeah, to throw harder, and then you 320 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: have to somehow when you're about to deliver the ball 321 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 1: change your focus to that command. You know, find the glove, 322 00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:55,079 Speaker 1: find your area where you're trying to locate. It doesn't 323 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 1: have to be pinpoint. For some guys, maybe they're thrown 324 00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,560 Speaker 1: to a big area, but at least they get it there. 325 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 1: I think I've seen it here honestly with the Angels 326 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 1: in the past few years, I think they were going 327 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,439 Speaker 1: down that path of throw your best pitch all the time, 328 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:12,320 Speaker 1: use your stuff, let that take over. And this year 329 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,719 Speaker 1: they brought in a few guys. Sal f Asano it's 330 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 1: been a big one man, he's just the way he 331 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 1: talks about pitching, the way he talks about the game. 332 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 1: And then Travis Darnelt. They work together for years together, 333 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 1: but bringing them both over here together, one coach, one 334 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 1: player obviously, but just the words they use, how they 335 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 1: approach the game, how they approach pitching. They have found 336 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 1: that balance, you know, that really good balance and knowing 337 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 1: who their guy is, using their stuff the right way, 338 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,480 Speaker 1: and then also teaching command. So I think you can 339 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: find a good balance and use both and that's when 340 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 1: you get the best of both worlds and you see 341 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: guys really take off, and that's guys that dominate the game. 342 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 5: But could you teach it? Could you look a kid 343 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 5: in the eye that throws one hundred miles an hour 344 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 5: and go, hey, bro, this is what you need to 345 00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 5: do to command it. Could you teach it? Because you 346 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 5: always talk about it. Hits, like great hitters usually aren't 347 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 5: great hitting coaches. Terrible hitters are great hitting coaches. So 348 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 5: could you teach a kid who throws a hundred to 349 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 5: have command? Because that is golden the golden egg. 350 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 1: Yes, Okay, I totally got you here, and I honestly 351 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: I don't have confidence in myself to do that. 352 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 6: No. 353 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 1: I think, just like you said, I'm so locked in 354 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 1: on my process. I know how my body works, my 355 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: mind works. That's what I'm trying to follow and go through. 356 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 2: Now. 357 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 1: If I were to go down that path, I think 358 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: it would take me, you know, some time. I would 359 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 1: have to make some adjustments, really dive into that part 360 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 1: of the game if that's really what I wanted to do, 361 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 1: and to get out of it. But you're You're absolutely right. 362 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 1: It's it's really hard being a coach. You have to 363 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 1: have the guy on the other end here in your words, 364 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 1: you know, and connecting to that. Sometimes just the way 365 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 1: you put things, you know, the certain words you use 366 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 1: connect certain ways to different guys, So I think coaching 367 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 1: is a whole different world and teaching guys. But again, 368 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 1: I love the role I'm in playing. I love competing 369 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 1: and focusing on my teammates. You know, the conversations that 370 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 1: we have together, like in the dugout, in the clubhouse, 371 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 1: all that about pitching. That's the stuff I love. And 372 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 1: I feel like that's a little bit of teaching coaching, 373 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 1: which is all amongst ourselves. 374 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 3: Right now, Kyle, this is your first year in the 375 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:22,160 Speaker 3: BIGS on a non Chicago Cubs team, So was it 376 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 3: weird to make that transition? And do you do any 377 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 3: reminiscing now that that chapter of your career has closed? 378 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 3: For example, we spoke to Schwarber a few weeks ago 379 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 3: about this and he had a really good answer about 380 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 3: how it went so quick and so many things happened 381 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 3: so well, And obviously I think you were the longest 382 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 3: tenured guy from the twenty sixteen Champs to still go 383 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 3: through your cub's career obviously after that for another almost decade. 384 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 2: But what's it like now to look back. 385 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think Schwarbs said it exactly right. 386 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 2: Man. 387 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: It goes so fast, It goes extremely fast, especially for 388 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: a lot of us, and we were young, that young 389 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,920 Speaker 1: core that was coming up. We were twenty four twenty five, 390 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,720 Speaker 1: going to the playoffs and then winning the World Series 391 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 1: in the first couple of years. You're just like, oh 392 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:11,440 Speaker 1: my gosh, this is this is what happened in the 393 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 1: big leagues, right, And it's completely not true. It's so 394 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,360 Speaker 1: hard to do that and to get back there every 395 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:20,399 Speaker 1: single year. And so that's where the reminiscing comes, is 396 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 1: realizing how good of a group we had year after year, 397 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,840 Speaker 1: the core, the veteran leaders, how much I learned from 398 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 1: John Lester, John Lackey, Jake Arietta. I would have never 399 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 1: been able to do any of this without learning what 400 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 1: I did from them. So yeah, there's so many memories, 401 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 1: and when it's all over, I'll be able to look 402 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 1: back more and really reminisce more on all that. Just 403 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:45,880 Speaker 1: for this year, Like you said, I'm super excited where 404 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 1: I'm at. And I think, to answer the second part 405 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 1: of your question, I think it was more weird for 406 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 1: almost everybody else. You know, the change coming to the Angels. 407 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,639 Speaker 1: You guys know playing. I mean, when you're growing up, 408 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:58,920 Speaker 1: you're moving teams, you're going here and there, you're always 409 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 1: playing for somebody different, seems like high school through college, 410 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 1: So it was almost more strange to be in one 411 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 1: place for that ten year stretch or whatever it was. 412 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,360 Speaker 1: That was almost more strange coming to a new team, 413 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 1: new guys, that's what you're used to, and especially coming 414 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 1: back to a hometown team somebody I just grew up 415 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:17,160 Speaker 1: watching and playing it. I felt very comfortable right at home. 416 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:21,159 Speaker 5: You are all you young cubs, actual cubs in the 417 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 5: big leagues. Who goes back to Chicago and gets the 418 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 5: most beers paid for? Like, who's the guy out of 419 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 5: that whole crew that is like, oh man, like everybody 420 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 5: loves this guy more than everyone else. 421 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:38,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that one's pretty clear. 422 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 4: Man. 423 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 1: Riz Riz is mister Chicago Anthony. He's the mister Cub. 424 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 1: I think he was there. He was there from the beginning, 425 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 1: you know, and he saw some of the losing. He 426 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:52,440 Speaker 1: was there for the couple really bad years, and then 427 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: a year or two in for him, it really changed 428 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:58,399 Speaker 1: and it clicked and he seemed to be the catalyst. 429 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,920 Speaker 1: He was always the leader, the guy keeping us where 430 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:04,959 Speaker 1: we needed to be, even keel. He knew when to 431 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 1: get guys loose, when to get serious. Uh. He just 432 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 1: really had a good grasp on the team and the 433 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:13,399 Speaker 1: city and the fans and everything they meant and what 434 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 1: it would mean to win in that city. He understood it. 435 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,200 Speaker 1: It seemed like the most So we call kind of 436 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 1: followed his lead, and from there, I would say on 437 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:23,120 Speaker 1: the pitching side, it would be John Lester. I mean, 438 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:24,920 Speaker 1: he was just an absolute legend and what he did 439 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 1: for that for that club was amazing. 440 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,960 Speaker 6: Last question here, Mike Trout started off a little slow. 441 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 6: You know, he goes all of a sudden, he's gonna 442 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 6: get going. Two homers yesterday. I texted him earlier. I 443 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:38,680 Speaker 6: said there were a couple of cheapies, but he said 444 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:42,880 Speaker 6: he'll take thee. There's no such thing as a cheap 445 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 6: home run. I was kidding exactly exactly. Do you how 446 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,640 Speaker 6: do you see him going? Is he going to kickstart 447 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 6: this team moving forward? 448 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 2: Here? 449 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 6: Big game yesterday, three guys with two home runs. If 450 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 6: Mike Trout goes, does this team go? 451 00:19:58,040 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 4: Yeah? 452 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:00,159 Speaker 1: Absolutely? I Mean, you guys know who he is as 453 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: a player, one of the best players to ever play 454 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,879 Speaker 1: the game, future Hall of Famer. So that's been so 455 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:08,160 Speaker 1: cool for me to just see his process and there's 456 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 1: no reason I can understand the reason why he is 457 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:12,959 Speaker 1: as good as he is. He's the first one in 458 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,639 Speaker 1: there every single day, working his tail off. 459 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 4: Man. 460 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 1: What he puts in, he gets everything out, and for 461 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 1: sure he been in the middle of our lineup like that. 462 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 1: If he's going and he's hot, I mean, we're gonna 463 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 1: be really really good for this entire year. But I 464 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 1: think you've seen it at the start of the season. 465 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 1: We've used so many guys, so many different guys have 466 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 1: been the hero for us. From KP. Paris, Like we 467 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 1: were talking about, up and down this order, up and 468 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 1: down this lineup and the pitching we've had. It's taken 469 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 1: everybody for some of these wins we've had. So that's 470 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 1: the really cool part seeing the young guys come through. 471 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 1: That's what's going to pay off when we get down 472 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 1: to the stretch, you know, in the August, September hopefully 473 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,719 Speaker 1: when we're in it. But if Mike's going on as 474 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 1: good as he is as a player, he can carry 475 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:57,159 Speaker 1: a team on his own, all right. 476 00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:00,199 Speaker 5: Last one, Todd and I played with Mike when he 477 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 5: was nineteen, and obviously you know we've kept in touch 478 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:05,000 Speaker 5: all stuff. He was on the show and he said, 479 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,880 Speaker 5: you know, guys, I'm just you know, it's not I'm 480 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:13,400 Speaker 5: not nineteen anymore.

Some of them ball out, and most ball 532 00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 3: out in one or two categories. Maybe it's cars, maybe 533 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 3: it's vacations, maybe it's dinners or food. But they also 534 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:46,159 Speaker 3: love to go back to their core, back to their roots. 535 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:50,439 Speaker 3: And if you remember, years back, Zach Grank went viral 536 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:54,440 Speaker 3: for complaining about Chipotle's guacamole price hike, which was still 537 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:58,119 Speaker 3: sub two dollars. So Bridgeroi put together this awesome article, 538 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 3: and the Athletic called MLB players even pay to read 539 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:01,399 Speaker 3: this article. 540 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 2: You stay rich. 541 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:06,959 Speaker 3: By being cheap. Now, cheap is what some players call 542 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 3: the C word. Ace Pitcher TJ. McFarlane says he likes 543 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 3: to use the F word frugal, okay, and then Stephen 544 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:18,240 Speaker 3: Kwan said it's that old cliche, you stay rich by 545 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 3: being cheap. A couple other examples here and then we'll 546 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,199 Speaker 3: get some more from our friends sitting next to me. 547 00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 3: So there are accounts like Spotify, Netflix, etcetera. Subscriptions they're 548 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 3: borrowing from everybody. Sometimes this was good. You would hear 549 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 3: in the clubhouse a phone hooked up and ads playing 550 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 3: between songs, meaning you didn't sign up for the premium account. 551 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,680 Speaker 3: And with Merridfield in this story goes guys with yel 552 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,200 Speaker 3: you're a big leaguer making millions of dollars and you 553 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 3: can't pay twelve bucks for the premium account. Even Glass 554 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:55,359 Speaker 3: Now is going to be on with us on Monday, 555 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:57,160 Speaker 3: so maybe we can ask him. He said, there's something 556 00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 3: about buying an app. I just don't want to give 557 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 3: them the two dots. There's clothing, lots of old clothing. 558 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,640 Speaker 3: Are just all the free stuff. Clay Holmes said he's 559 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:06,800 Speaker 3: cheap about flights because you don't really know how much 560 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 3: they cost until the offseason. So this article really hits 561 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:14,200 Speaker 3: lastly on cars. Some guys spend all out on that category. 562 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:17,120 Speaker 3: And then there's Matt Vierling still driving his twenty twelve 563 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,640 Speaker 3: forod Escape from College, which broke down on the highway 564 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 3: in September. 565 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:25,720 Speaker 5: That ain't it your car can't break down. 566 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:27,440 Speaker 2: That's your line. 567 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 5: Your car can't break down. You can't have anything that 568 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 5: you're not willing to spend money on. That's going to 569 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:40,440 Speaker 5: be a detriment to your career. Food trainers, sleep, your lifestyle. 570 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:44,199 Speaker 5: You got to spend money on it. Everything else. You 571 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 5: can look at me as cheap, frugal, whatever you want. 572 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 5: I always say that I'm cheap, and my wife's. 573 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 4: Like, you're not cheap. 574 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 5: You just might not spend everything, but you're not cheap, 575 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,360 Speaker 5: Like I just I'm a simple man. But I think 576 00:25:56,400 --> 00:26:00,159 Speaker 5: also the minor league signing for one thousand dollars, it 577 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,199 Speaker 5: puts it in there and it kind of ingrains that 578 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:05,200 Speaker 5: in you, and you're like, I don't need other things. 579 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:09,160 Speaker 5: I don't need. I don't need excess. That's my biggest thing. 580 00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 4: Yeah. 581 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 6: And then when you're first coming up, you have no 582 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:16,199 Speaker 6: kids and everything else, that's the time where it's like, 583 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 6: all right, let let's let's control what we buy. In 584 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:21,720 Speaker 6: my opinion, some people might think they're around, oh, let's spend, 585 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 6: and then we have no control what you you try 586 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 6: and spend. I mean, I'm not a guy that's gonna 587 00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:30,439 Speaker 6: go out to the mall and spend hundreds of dollars 588 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,439 Speaker 6: on clothes or anything. I've I've got some of the 589 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:34,439 Speaker 6: same shirts since I was in high school. 590 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:37,200 Speaker 4: I have the same jacket I bought. 591 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 6: You guys also get so much free stuff, so that's 592 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:42,160 Speaker 6: that's also as well. 593 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:46,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, but there's cheap cheap dudes.

Like, there's only certain 612 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 8: clothes I fit me right. So I hear this a lot. 613 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 8: But one of the guys who made the best quote, 614 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,959 Speaker 8: Ryan mont Constas, says, I never get new clothes. Basically, 615 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 8: they we just all get like our golf pants, and 616 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 8: we get our one shirt and we wear it until 617 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 8: it falls apart or we get too fat, and then 618 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:57,680 Speaker 8: we put on something else. So, uh, these guys don't 619 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:01,439 Speaker 8: buy clothes. Francisco does. So everyone's got their stuff.

God, Like, 679 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:56,080 Speaker 5: you're in debt from this season. You just made five 680 00:30:56,160 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 5: hundred thousand dollars. And unfortunately a lot of Latin players 681 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 5: are sending a lot of money home. That's not the 682 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:06,400 Speaker 5: unfortunate part. No, they're sending money home and they're supporting 683 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 5: other people, and then they're going out and buying all 684 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:12,479 Speaker 5: the same stuff that the dudes who are making fifty 685 00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 5: sixty million dollars are buying, and you just can't afford that. 686 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 5: Like it it, It stretches really thin. Greg Zahn once 687 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 5: told me, he goes, your career earnings should be about 688 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:27,800 Speaker 5: a third because your career, if it's ten years long, 689 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 5: compared to everybody else that's a thirty year, forty year 690 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 5: career at their job, you're cutting your earnings in a third. 691 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,600 Speaker 5: And all of a sudden, it makes you realize, yes, 692 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 5: you make a lot in a short window, but you're 693 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 5: pretty much useless to society after you're done. So all 694 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 5: that money is stretched out, so you can't live above 695 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:47,560 Speaker 5: your means. 696 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 4: And I finishing with this just I was always a 697 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 4: guy brought up. 698 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:53,960 Speaker 6: Just always at least offer, whether you know you're with 699 00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 6: that guy or not, or if I'm paying for it 700 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 6: or you're paying for the meal, like hey, what do 701 00:31:58,400 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 6: I owe?
