1
00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:15,760
Speaker 1: Oh boy, that was a series. I said, I'm not

2
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,000
Speaker 1: gonna rant, so I won't no rants for me today.

3
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,680
Speaker 1: I think James maybe maybe has a little something in them.

4
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:22,840
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's just I tweeted it out.

5
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:24,160
Speaker 2: I am so.

6
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:28,800
Speaker 1: Fucking tired of the twenty twenty five Mets. I still

7
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:33,160
Speaker 1: weirdly believe I'm gonna still watch every game. I'm still

8
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:36,200
Speaker 1: gonna be hopeful and they can still make the playoffs.

9
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 1: Season is not over, but man, I am so tired

10
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:47,240
Speaker 1: of watching this team play uninspired baseball seemingly three, four, five,

11
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,160
Speaker 1: sometimes six times a week. We've seen that three different

12
00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:53,520
Speaker 1: times this year. They've played horrible baseball for an entire week.

13
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 1: So we're gonna talk about this National Series, but I

14
00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be more narrative, and I think it's

15
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,240
Speaker 1: gonna be a lot less about game by game what's

16
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 1: going on, because this team mega stinks right now. I

17
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 1: don't know how they keep doing this. This is probably

18
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: who they are. But until the season's over, me and

19
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 1: James are going to continue to talk about it and

20
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:14,399
Speaker 1: just hope we can sneak into the playoffs.

21
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 2: Guys, Thank you for listening, Thank you for watching.

22
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,640

32
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 1: just I'm apathetic. That's the problem. That's like kind of

33
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 1: the fear. That's like something I don't ever want to

34
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 1: be about this team in any way, shape or form.

35
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 1: I just happened to be after watching these last two games.

36
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,360
Speaker 1: They get you right, just close enough to keep believing,

37
00:01:58,360 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 1: and they managed to suck the life out of you

38
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 1: more time.

39
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 2: It's horrible.

40
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 1: Watch you watch the ghost of Willie Mays overtake Jacob

41
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 1: Young's body for for an afternoon. You just can't even

42
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 1: really believe the things that are going on.

43
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 2: Dude.

44
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 1: Two guys in the Mets for Cisco Ovaras and Brett

45
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,360
Speaker 1: Bay they hit two flat balls that combine to travel

46
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 1: eight hundred and twenty four feet and you get not

47
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 1: even zero runs out of it, but also zero hits,

48
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 1: zero base runers. It's kind of incomprehensible how many things

49
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 1: continue to not go to the Mets way. Well, at

50
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 1: the same time, they're not really opening themselves up for

51
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 1: things to go their way, like there's no there's no

52
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:29,839
Speaker 1: deserving and anything better.

53
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 2: At this point, it's it's just bad.

54
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 1: And at the same time, like you said, there's still

55
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 1: a chance, there's still like in air quotes, hope to

56
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,920
Speaker 1: get your doors blown off of the Dodgers the Wildcard series.

57
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,919
Speaker 2: But it's just it's it's sad. What's happened to this team.

58
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Mets no longer control their destiny. The Mets

59
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,800
Speaker 1: could win out and they could miss the playoffs. That

60
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 1: is the worst part of this all because they shit

61
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 1: the bet against the Reds in a series. In two series,

62
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: they shot the bet against them. Mets should beat the Reds,

63
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 1: but you can't say they're a better team right now

64
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 1: than Cincinnati Reds. They haven't played like it for basically

65
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 1: the entire season, so they should the bed there. They

66
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,800
Speaker 1: don't control their destiny anymore. The Mets could win out

67
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 1: and still miss out on the playoffs. That's the most

68
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,920
Speaker 1: sinking feeling of this all. And also the fucking Cubs

69
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 1: couldn't do us a goddamn thing this week getting swept

70
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,239
Speaker 1: by the Reds. But the Reds want it. The Mets

71
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: do not feel like they want it. Of course these

72
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 1: players do. Of course these players are playing hard. But

73
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 1: like I said at the beginning, it's uninspired baseball. I

74
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,080
Speaker 1: don't feel like the Mets. They There's no way to

75
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 1: prove it, but they do not come ready to play

76
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 1: baseball every single day at the field, or if they are,

77
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 1: they are bad players. So again it's a conversation we've

78
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 1: had before on this podcast games.

79
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 2: Are these guys bad? Do they lack testos or like?

80
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 1: What goes on that against Jake Irvin and Mitchell Parker,

81
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 1: the two worst qualified pitchers in Major League Baseball, They.

82
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 2: Put up a combined two runs.

83
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 1: Two runs against Jake Irvin and Mitchell Parker, and then

84
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 1: the night before against the Nationals nothing. They blow their

85
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 1: load on Friday night to score one hundred runs in

86
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 1: the game that they needed to. Thank god they did

87
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 1: and they won that one because they pitched horribly in

88
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 1: that game. They didn't really pitch that well. But then

89
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: to come out and just lay a fucking the Nationals

90
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: pitching is a joke.

91
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 2: It is horrendous.

92
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:17,719
Speaker 1: Again, the worst qualified pitchers in Major League Baseball, Jake Irvin,

93
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 1: Mitchell Parker. They stink, They're terrible, and you can't do anything.

94
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 1: I've never seen a team just clam up like they do.

95
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:31,280
Speaker 1: They shit their pants, they pissed down their leg. They've

96
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 1: got no juice right now. If it wasn't for Want Soto,

97
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:38,160
Speaker 1: Francisco Indoor and Pete Alonzo, which again I know that's

98
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 1: a lot. Those are the three big guys, but we're

99
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:41,920
Speaker 1: getting nothing out of anybody else.

100
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 2: It feels like right now, it's We.

101
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 1: Talked about this a little bit on Saturday when we

102
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 1: were hanging out, because I don't think it's like the

103
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 1: lack of preparation. I don't think it's these guys are

104
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 1: bad players. I don't think they can handle pressure very well.

105
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,159
Speaker 1: But that's bad, like come on, com ready to play.

106
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 1: That's I get you are right when I say the

107
00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:00,840
Speaker 1: lack of preparation it's not the physical preparation like knowing

108
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 1: who they're playing, what it is, it's prepared to win

109
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:04,160
Speaker 1: a baseball game.

110
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 2: This is something that we've said before too.

111
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 1: It feels like the Mets want the other team to

112
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 1: lose rather than they want to win the game. Sometimes

113
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go old guy to take for a second,

114
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 1: this is gonna be a take that like Brian Kenny

115
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,279
Speaker 1: will love. Okay, well, Brian Kenny does love. He's he's

116
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,120
Speaker 1: the worst thing you could have picked. Actually, all the

117
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,920
Speaker 1: MLB network guys no, because he's like the analytics cap.

118
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: He will These are the kind of old school things

119
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,039
Speaker 1: will bring in where like you watch the Reds team

120
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,840
Speaker 1: play baseball and you're like they embody the Terry Franco

121
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,720
Speaker 1: and a whole little thing, like they have a looseness.

122
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 1: Like they were out here ripping Tony santi and got

123
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 1: to save on Sunday against the Cubs and he's pumping

124
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 1: his fist in front of the home crowd after a

125
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 1: four games sweep to put themselves in the spot and

126
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 1: the metsag just kind of like dragging, dragging their arms

127
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 1: around just blah blah blah, moving like it's just postgame

128
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 1: press conference is the same thing, like we know better

129
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:48,719
Speaker 1: than this, We needs to go one thing to go

130
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:50,719
Speaker 1: our way, this and that. It's just like fucking hear

131
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,359
Speaker 1: that anymore. I can't hear that shit anymore. You've also

132
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 1: lost four out of five games against the Nationals, now, Like,

133
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:58,839
Speaker 1: you can't do that. You're gonna end the season only

134
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 1: seven to six against his Naws team. That is horrific, terribly,

135
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 1: you can't do that. You like last series too, we

136
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 1: won in last series. Go, we won the first game

137
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,279
Speaker 1: and we lost the next two when we played in Washington,

138
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,160
Speaker 1: I believe so, yeah, or maybe that was we won

139
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 1: the game in the middle, but like so, the point is,

140
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 1: you're not You're gonna look back in the season why

141
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: we missed the playoffs, because now we're basically a fifty

142
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 1: to fifty shot even just based on the odds, and

143
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,599
Speaker 1: I think in my heart, I think it's forty sixty that.

144
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 2: We even if we make it.

145
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 1: You're gonna look back at a lot of these games

146
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,159
Speaker 1: we played against some bad teams like the Washington Nationals

147
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 1: do series down the stretch and you couldn't you couldn't

148
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 1: win either one against them. It's kind of the joke,

149
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 1: and you had chances. They opened the door for you.

150
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 1: They let it be known like you you got to

151
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 1: the end of the line. Even probably more so on

152
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: Saturday and Friday. You had golden opportunities just for a

153
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,719
Speaker 1: little bit of execution to won those games and on

154
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 1: at any point in the eleven innings that we played,

155
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:50,200
Speaker 1: and it almost never happened. Yeah, Saturday was that hurt

156
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 1: because they get the comeback in the ninth inning, which

157
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 1: would have would have been the first time all year

158
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,359
Speaker 1: to get that comeback like they did, and then in

159
00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,279
Speaker 1: the extras to be given a gift. You get a

160
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:04,160
Speaker 1: clean inning, clean inning, fantastic job by the bullpen, Luisan

161
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,720
Speaker 1: Helocunya blaze down a bunch, gets on base, and it's

162
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 1: the worst thing that could have happened. Like, I can't

163
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 1: believe that the Mets did the right thing. Small ball

164
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 1: trying to move the runner over. He popped up the bunt,

165
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: but it was a positive pop up bump because he

166
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 1: got on base, and then Alvarez ropes the ball turned

167
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 1: two inning over. Like this is where this team is

168
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 1: right now. They they can't do anything right anything. It's

169
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 1: it's shocking. I've almost never seen this, How are the

170
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 1: Mets gonna have like statistically one of the better offensive

171
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 1: years in baseball in terms of like when you look

172
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 1: at a team compared to the rest of the league,

173
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 1: it's like twenty nineteen all over again, where the offense

174
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 1: is unbelievable and they just cannot win games even though

175
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 1: the offense shit the bet in these ones, it's I

176
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 1: was trying to think, how can they have such good

177
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 1: offensive numbers but so many games where it feels like

178
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 1: they don't show up? And I think it's when the

179
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 1: Mets scored, they scored twelve runs like they did on

180
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 1: Friday night, and everybody hits, Yeah, they do.

181
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 2: They kind of like they feed off each other when

182
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 2: things go well. When things are going bad, I think

183
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 2: the inverse happens. He kind of all take away from

184
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 2: each other.

185
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 1: But I even think worse than that tenth thenning because

186
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 1: I was almost a little frustrated too that Alvarez wasn't bunting,

187
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 1: because conceptually, if you're bunting the first guy to get

188
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 1: that guy the third, you should be bunting the second guy.

189
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 1: Alvarez can't bump the fingers are fucked up. But I

190
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 1: understand him specifically not Bunting. I don't know, do you

191
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 1: take out Francisco Alvers, Luis Trenz can lay down a bunch.

192
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 1: I don't know if you do that just to get

193
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:20,760
Speaker 1: Rynie Marisio to the play because of all this substitutent.

194
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 1: I don't know if that is if I would have

195
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 1: felt great about that, but just knowing the double play

196
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 1: was in play, I thought about that.

197
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 2: I said that aloud to you.

198
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 1: I was much more frustrated with the way the ninth

199
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 1: then he went down where so I though, gets the

200
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:32,440
Speaker 1: big hit of the bloop, you tie the game.

201
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 2: And then they.

202
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:37,079
Speaker 1: Intentionally walked Pete obviously, and then you double steal while

203
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 1: Pete's up before the intentional walk.

204
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 2: So you have guys in second and third with one out,

205
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 2: and like, this is it.

206
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 1: All we gotta do is put the ball in play,

207
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 1: and Nimo just has a miserable, miserable at bad against

208
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 1: Jose Ferre, who had his number in Washington too, and

209
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:49,960
Speaker 1: it was just it kind of feels like this would

210
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 1: Nimo sometimes where you could gas him with the velocity

211
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:54,840
Speaker 1: and doesn't seem like he has a solution for it,

212
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 1: and then you kind of force him to play Pepper

213
00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 1: basically with a breaking ball. He's trying to foul things

214
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: off so they can guess right on the of the

215
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 1: fastball or breaking ball. And like this is another one

216
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 1: similar to how it feels about this lineup. But like

217
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:06,679
Speaker 1: when you look at Nimo and you're like, all right,

218
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 1: he's gonna have twenty five homers, twelve steel seven to

219
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 1: fifty oh ps' like that's a good season. But then

220
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:13,839
Speaker 1: you kind of think about the shape of it and

221
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 1: the big spots he's had. It's just like you really

222
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 1: have to come out of a season like this from

223
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,440
Speaker 1: Brandon Nimo asking for more, and you have the past

224
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 1: big time, you have the big time fears of aging

225
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 1: with Brandon Nemo, which is that he has just been

226
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 1: incapable hitting fastballs this season.

227
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 2: One of the worst guys in the whole team.

228
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 1: That's something that he was always very good at, something

229
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:31,160
Speaker 1: as a good hitter, something a lot of.

230
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:31,960
Speaker 2: Good hitters are good at.

231
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 1: And then he's still trying to be more aggressive but

232
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 1: still sometimes will do passive and strikes on especially the

233
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:37,560
Speaker 1: heart of it.

234
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:38,560
Speaker 2: It's it's good, We're gonna look back.

235
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 1: This season for Neimo is a really strange one and

236
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:42,840
Speaker 1: it was just he really, all you need to do

237
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:44,960
Speaker 1: is put the ball in play on Saturday, and the

238
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:48,080
Speaker 1: entire tenor of this whole playoff race series last week.

239
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,080
Speaker 2: This season changes. It's a big spot for me to

240
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 2: not deliver.

241
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 1: It. Been incredibly, incredibly critical of Nemo over this last month.

242
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,440
Speaker 1: I he's left such a bad taste in my mouth

243
00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,840
Speaker 1: this season of how he's performed. And like you said,

244
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 1: I think you're totally right from a zoomed out perspective.

245
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:05,680
Speaker 1: I think if you don't watch every single Mets game,

246
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,440
Speaker 1: you see the counting numbers, think it's a pretty good year,

247
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,400
Speaker 1: you would have been happy. Honestly, I would have been

248
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 1: happy if I heard twenty five and eighty right from

249
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,560
Speaker 1: Nemo totally. But he's not getting on base at all.

250
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 1: Francis quaal Verus is a higher on base percentage than him.

251
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:23,239
Speaker 1: Whatever this version of Nemo is is is not acceptable.

252
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:26,079
Speaker 2: It's not very good. I know, like this is where

253
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:26,719
Speaker 2: numbers lie.

254
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 1: I feel like because you look at his numbers and

255
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 1: you think it's a pretty good season, but then you

256
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 1: watch him play and I would say it is an

257
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:34,680
Speaker 1: absolute failure of every season for him, or it's where

258
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 1: the eyes lie. I think it's something in between those two.

259
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 1: It really is, because I think that, like, this is

260
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 1: the player that I thought, like, remember when it was

261
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 1: like Nimo is one of the most undreaded players in baseball.

262
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,839
Speaker 1: Eight fifty ops, gets on base a ton, doing all

263
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 1: that stuff, but the rest of the world and league

264
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 1: was like he's Brandon Nemo. Now it feels like he's

265
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 1: that version of Brandon Neimo that everyone thought he was,

266
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 1: where it's like just not not much different than some

267
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 1: of the other options that play outfield for other teams,

268
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 1: like seven to fifty ops without getting on base.

269
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 2: The power has been better ish now it's been better

270
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 2: for sure.

271
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:06,959
Speaker 1: Three straight seasons are gonna have twenty three homers and

272
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:08,600
Speaker 1: all three of those are career highs.

273
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 2: Like that's something, sure, but.

274
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,559
Speaker 1: Like if you're gonna then get more home runs, you

275
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,440
Speaker 1: would think that I don't get.

276
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 2: On base more.

277
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,160
Speaker 1: It's he's just he's a baffling player to me, especially

278
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:21,040
Speaker 1: because like you mentioned, it seems like you can just

279
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,080
Speaker 1: you can tell what kind of a bat it's gonna

280
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 1: be from the start, the defensive swings that he takes.

281
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:28,240
Speaker 1: He is only trying to hit foul balls some at

282
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 1: bats and that that's what really drives me insane.

283
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 2: And you can just guess him up. Like we're talking about.

284
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:34,079
Speaker 2: He does have the good stats.

285
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:35,600
Speaker 1: He does still hit the ball hard, he does still

286
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 1: have slightly abovely gaverage bat speed, But he does the

287
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 1: thing where once you see this happen with a Hither

288
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,200
Speaker 1: in their thirties, you know nervous.

289
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:43,400
Speaker 2: It's not going well anymore.

290
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 1: And the one thing against that very very very negative

291
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 1: run value against fastballs. And the second thing is that

292
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,199
Speaker 1: he has one of the highest zone rates of any

293
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 1: Hither in the league. And that is the reason why

294
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 1: nimb is not getting on base as much. You can't

295
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 1: use your eye as much. People are just filling up

296
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:58,000
Speaker 1: the zone against you. But the lack of fear the

297
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,559
Speaker 1: Phillips zone against you is an shoot. The fact that

298
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 1: he's seeing fifty five percent of pitches inside the strike

299
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 1: zone when the major league average is under forty nine percent.

300
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 1: It's a massive, massive gap. As one of the highest

301
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 1: in all of Major League baseball. I'm Gonnaulle to leader

302
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:11,560
Speaker 1: board right now, tell you who the other guys are

303
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 1: with the highest zone rates in the league. It's gonna

304
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: be some soft contact hit. There's probably some guys. Some

305
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 1: guys just saw in this series. I I found ways

306
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 1: to make plays. But it's just that's something that when

307
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 1: you kind of pair it with being thirty two years old,

308
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 1: the on base percentage sinking bad, and then the negative

309
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,439
Speaker 1: run value against fastball, it's like, now, where where how

310
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,200
Speaker 1: do we pull ourselves out of this? Like Nimo right now,

311
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 1: Francis Guavarez has a like fifteen point higher on base

313
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,200

Speaker 1: was unplayable for forty games this year. He was He

315
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 1: wasisically one of the worst hitters in baseball for a while.

316
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 2: Like his.

317
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 1: I like seeing brand Nemo hit the ball hard. That's

318
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,560
Speaker 1: never something I'm gonna complain about. But the fact that

319
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 1: he's just to hit the ball hard he's become a

320
00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,960

345
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 1: the thing that happens Saturday's top of mind. It is

346
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,680
Speaker 1: just worth having these longer conversations about some of these guys.

347
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,319

00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,440
Speaker 1: Number one Joey Ortiz mister five ninety ops fifty seven

352
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 1: point three percent. Number two Jonathan India fifty seven point

353
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 1: one percent. Number three Brandon Neimo fifty six point six.

354
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 2: They're not scared.

355
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 1: Number four Luisa Riaz fifty six point five, and number

356
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 1: five Caleb Durbin fifty six point two. So those those

357
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 1: are those are four guys with pool noodles and Brandon

358
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 1: Nemo and they I think there is this idea of

359
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 1: these pictures that they're like, we could just get this guy, like,

360
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 1: don't let him do the walks as the walkers.

361
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 2: Always a big deal. For Nimo, It's like it's gonna be.

362
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 1: The lowest walkway have his career, by far, lowest on

363
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,280
Speaker 1: base percentage of his career. It's a very different type

364
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 1: of player than who we used to see and that

365
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 1: the things that made him good before some of them

366
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 1: are still present, but they're not as prevalent. It just

367
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 1: it hurts his value of that big contract, especially how

368
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 1: much we require of him. What was great about Nimo's

369
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 1: when he struggled, he was getting on base. Who's playing

370
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 1: good defense? Right now, We're not getting either of those

371
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 1: things when he struggles, And that's that's kind of like

372
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 1: the hole that you can feel that we're missing, is

373
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 1: that there's no like everyone's streaky. Everyone likes to talk

374
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 1: about like, oh, he's so streaky, he's hot.

375
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 2: Can't everyone's streaky?

376
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 1: Me and James, like, as a joke one time, wanted

377
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 1: to create a stat to find who are the most

378
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 1: consistent players in baseball. That is still one of our

379
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 1: goals is to make this into a real stat, consistency stat. Yeah,

380
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:28,760
Speaker 1: but like everybody's streaky. The difference is those guys get

381
00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 1: on base and stuff, Like even when Soda was cold, right,

382
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 1: He's still getting on base. A ton still had like

383
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 1: a fifteen percent walk rate getting on base a ton.

384
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 1: Nimo's not getting on base when he's cold. And that's

385
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 1: where you feel that real just lack of a punch

386
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 1: in this lineup at times, and because he continues to

387
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:46,800
Speaker 1: hit third and fourth, but but also again like based

388
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 1: on the rest of the lineup, it's not the biggest

389
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 1: issue he continues to hit third and fourth, it's just

390
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 1: probably does mean there needs to be the next creation

391
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 1: of this team, next other ration of there has to

392
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 1: be someone else in between them, Like is that guy

393
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 1: who could be in between them?

394
00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:58,280
Speaker 2: Is that Alvarez? Is that baby?

395
00:15:58,360 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 1: Like we might be getting to a point where that

396
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 1: is realist and Nimo can kind of drop down to

397
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:03,760
Speaker 1: being more of a five six hither than a three

398
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 1: four hither, But I still think that might be a

399
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,040
Speaker 1: little much for those guys right now, even though we've

400
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 1: seen great couple of months from those two and I

401
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 1: trust him a lot. Another guy who heading into the year,

402
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 1: you hope could have filled that void Mark Fiento's. He

403
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,280
Speaker 1: actually did have the big hit on Saturday. We got

404
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 1: into that game, back into that game because of Vientos

405
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 1: stroking that double off of for air.

406
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 2: We always say that.

407
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 1: He's the guy if he wants to be an every

408
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,440
Speaker 1: day like a if he wants to get to the

409
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 1: next level of player in this league, could be much

410
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 1: more secure in his foothold. As a true Major League

411
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 1: baseball player, he has to just dominate lefties, and he

412
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 1: was able to do that again here. But then you

413
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:37,400
Speaker 1: have a moment on Sunday which people on Twitter got

414
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 1: pissed off me for saying, but he gets he's a

415
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:43,080
Speaker 1: questionable check swing. Replay show that he probably did swing,

416
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:44,360
Speaker 1: but it was very close on the field.

417
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 2: He did get punched down.

418
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 1: And then yeah, at the game, it didn't look like

419
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 1: he did at all, but the TV angle didn't look

420
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 1: like But then when you went overhead you can clearly

421
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 1: see him break the wrists and it say, all right,

422
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 1: he's he went through there. He mouthed off the umpires.

423
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,400
Speaker 1: Vento's does a lot. He wears the emotions on the sleeve.

424
00:16:57,840 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 1: Sometimes his body language can really go up and down.

425
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 1: And you got tossed, and this was just not a game.

426
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 1: When your team doesn't have any runs, you could get tossed.

427
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:06,800
Speaker 1: And I understand it was a very soft tossing, and

428
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 1: I don't blame him for that. Like the umpire, we

429
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 1: don't know what he said, but based on how it looked,

430
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:13,119
Speaker 1: it didn't seem like he did enough to get ejected.

431
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,600
Speaker 1: I think unless he told him he was gonna, you know, yeah,

432
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:18,320
Speaker 1: unless he use like the most colorful type of insult

433
00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:22,040
Speaker 1: we can possibly imagine, and effort, you know, yeah, worse

434
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 1: than that.

435
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 2: If it was if it was just a bland effort,

436
00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:25,080
Speaker 2: it's like who who care? I don't.

437
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, but in that moment, like your team needs needs runners,

438
00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:30,919
Speaker 1: base runners, you to stay in the game because you're

439
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:32,040
Speaker 1: you're a hitter and we have a left y on

440
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:34,120
Speaker 1: the mountain supposed to be your thing. You just can't

441
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:37,120
Speaker 1: even give the slightest opportunity to for anyone to throw

442
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,840
Speaker 1: you at You can't know that. That was a bad

443
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 1: job by him, and we've seen it recently and again

444
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 1: he did get that big hit on Saturday.

445
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:46,720
Speaker 2: But he's also been horrendous.

446
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:50,280
Speaker 1: In September, again, he really had about fifteen twenty good

447
00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:52,680
Speaker 1: games and the rest of the season has been such

448
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:54,920
Speaker 1: a loss. In the last fifteen games for Viento's hitting

449
00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,400
Speaker 1: one fifty six with one home run, two twenty four

450
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,200
Speaker 1: on base two sixty seven slugging that's good for were

451
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,159
Speaker 1: a sub five hundred ops over the last two weeks,

452
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:05,800
Speaker 1: and thinking about it, that is kind of when he

453
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 1: was right, when the offense was right, and then he goes,

454
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:10,720
Speaker 1: he goes, it's just missing one of those hitters.

455
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:11,719
Speaker 2: It is interesting.

456
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 1: So I think we are we are gonna leave the

457
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:16,440
Speaker 1: season believing fully. And Alvarez and Baby and Obaby also

458
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:18,000
Speaker 1: didn't have the best at bats through the end of

459
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:19,920
Speaker 1: this weekend. Alvarez, I thought it hit the game time

460
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:22,760
Speaker 1: home run on Sunday, and Jacob Young again with the

461
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,359
Speaker 1: spear of Willie May is controlling his limbs some somehow,

462
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:26,600
Speaker 1: some way robs everything.

463
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,480
Speaker 2: But it's just you can't do it, and something wrong.

464
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:30,960
Speaker 2: This is like in this game too.

465
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:34,159
Speaker 1: The runs the Nationals had were like kind of nonsense

466
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 1: early on, like the se Nunia has hit a rocket,

467
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 1: but like otherwise than that, like.

468
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 2: Get the out of here, and I wasn't sharp.

469
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,360
Speaker 1: And it's also the conversation of why I understand that

470
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:46,920
Speaker 1: the Nationals are a much worse team against lefties and

471
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 1: righty's like you you star Sean, and I like Abrams

472
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 1: c J Abrams doesn't even play this game, you know

473
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:52,959
Speaker 1: what I mean. James Wood's much worse against lefties than

474
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 1: he has rioties, like you switch flip Josh Bell around,

475
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 1: like those are the best hitters on this team. But

476
00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 1: it seemed to work well mentally for the Mets earlier

477
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 1: week for claims or claims Clay Holmes won Manaya two

478
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:06,679
Speaker 1: and whether or not I understand thinking like the matchups

479
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 1: are better than you want to play that, but there

480
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 1: probably has to be something to think about the mentals

481
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:12,359
Speaker 1: of these guys and the fact that something worked, just

482
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:16,360
Speaker 1: keep the exact same mentality or maybe and I don't know, maybe.

483
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:17,359
Speaker 2: It's just Homes.

484
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:18,879
Speaker 1: They want it to be, like we want Homes to

485
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:20,399
Speaker 1: pitch out of the relief because we want to make

486
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:22,320
Speaker 1: this something that happens this week no matter what, because

487
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 1: we need the writing.

488
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:23,679
Speaker 2: We've been talking about that.

489
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:27,200
Speaker 1: But still something worked and then it just didn't when

490
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 1: you change it a little bit.

491
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought it was bizarre.

492
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:32,159
Speaker 1: I didn't like I people on Twitter are getting mad

493
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:32,479
Speaker 1: at me too.

494
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 2: They're like, there, it's because the lefties. Is because of

495
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,639
Speaker 2: the lefties. I'm like, should I understand if that's get it?

496
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:38,760
Speaker 1: But also like, these guys are gonna get five at

497
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,120
Speaker 1: bats in the game, so like, I don't know, at

498
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 1: some point you're gonna get the Manaya advantage. It's gonna

499
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:45,920
Speaker 1: be either be the first inning or it's gonna be

500
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:47,439
Speaker 1: the fifth inning like when he comes in.

501
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 2: I don't know.

502
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:50,080
Speaker 1: That to me is not It's also not something I'm

503
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 1: gonna give Mendos a crap for. I think the only

504
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:55,920
Speaker 1: reasonable answer I'll except is that they want Clay Holmes

505
00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 1: to feel comfortable coming out of the bullpen again, because

506
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:00,480
Speaker 1: that's ultimately when comes out in the playoffs that I

507
00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:04,160
Speaker 1: can buy. What if it don't exist? If we make it, yeah,

508
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:07,160
Speaker 1: if we make it. But yeah, I didn't love it.

509
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 2: I didn't love it.

510
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 1: I'm like, it felt like it worked this like we

511
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 1: did it twice. Why did we have to change it?

512
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 1: Sometimes Mendoza fucking tinkers a little too much with the stuff.

513
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 1: It's like just and you've talked about it too, You're

514
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 1: like these players because the lineup changes so constantly, and

515
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:25,640
Speaker 1: as something even just a little bit, Yeah, it's just like,

516
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 1: what if we just go with what's working? Like even

517
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:31,000
Speaker 1: Nemo today in the three hole, it was like, oh man,

518
00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:34,239
Speaker 1: I really wish conceptually Pete Alonzo still gets to hit

519
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 1: ahead of Brandon Nimo anytime that's possible. And again there's

520
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 1: another situation from and I awhere and this did happen

521
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:42,440
Speaker 1: the Podras outing too. I'm not gonnabsolve him to that,

522
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:44,920
Speaker 1: but sure when he tries to throw those sweepers to

523
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 1: write it, he gets stuck between a back door and

524
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:49,040
Speaker 1: a back foot, and then all of a sudden, there's

525
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:50,159
Speaker 1: a bunch of that just hang in the middle of

526
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 1: the plate, and that's how these balls get crushed. The

527
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:55,639
Speaker 1: Whoreal Faro double was just that was a three. It

528
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 1: was an O two sweeper that was absolutely middle middle,

529
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 1: and it's just you can't throw that pitch there in

530
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 1: that situation. There has to be something else like it was.

531
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:05,240
Speaker 2: I don't know. Last Star.

532
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:06,919
Speaker 1: It was nice that he attacked the attack and this

533
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 1: went again, but there was just a couple of more

534
00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 1: sweepers that were in wrong spots and they got hammered.

535
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 1: I even thought it funny enough that one of the

536
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:15,240
Speaker 1: best Holmes has looked all season. He looked awesome. I

537
00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:18,480
Speaker 1: thought that really good. I thought I thought he looked fresh.

538
00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:20,479
Speaker 1: It's just amazing we've gone to this spot and it's

539
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:22,359
Speaker 1: the guys like that we werely on the most, the

540
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,080
Speaker 1: guys that we thought were going to be the trustworthy

541
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,280
Speaker 1: guys like Sean and Iya and Brandon Nimmo being the

542
00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:30,560
Speaker 1: ones that really just kind of fucked us. And also

543
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 1: we're just we're just jomping back between the sad games.

544
00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 1: I guess we'll do like a minute on the happy

545
00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 1: game on Friday, but I don't even have anything.

546
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:37,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, you guys don't want to hear that.

547
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 1: Would you think about the Edwin Diaz only one inning

548
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,400
Speaker 1: mandated in the tenth on Saturday as well?

549
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 2: I don't know.

550
00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 1: I hate playing Monday morning quarterback. I think I think

551
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:52,400
Speaker 1: it was.

552
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,880
Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, I don't.

553
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 1: I'm not that one didn't make me lose sleep like

554
00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 1: that one didn't make me go should have done this,

555
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,480
Speaker 1: should have done that. It's the weird part of the

556
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 1: season where every game is literally so important that I

557
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:07,480
Speaker 1: hate not making our best people do their thing that

558
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:08,160
Speaker 1: they do best.

559
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 2: But that's at the same.

560
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:15,320
Speaker 1: Time I can understand it more like I Mendoza has

561
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:16,200
Speaker 1: not had a good season.

562
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,439
Speaker 2: I think he's had a pretty horrible season as a manager.

563
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:22,400
Speaker 1: Honestly, I don't think that one was on him.

564
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:23,359
Speaker 2: I agree with you.

565
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:25,080
Speaker 1: That was the one that I was kind of surprised

566
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:26,800
Speaker 1: got the most vitriol online though, so I just wanted

567
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 1: to ask you. But even though we were together when

568
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:29,600
Speaker 1: it happened, yea the fact that we were together when

569
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:31,159
Speaker 1: it happened and neither of us even brought it up.

570
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:32,640
Speaker 2: I was like, all right, I think that we're having

571
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,000
Speaker 2: a good day. Any want to ruin our day? Besides that,

572
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,679
Speaker 2: it's just yeah, it's just not something you really ask

573
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 2: him to do.

574
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,639
Speaker 1: And also the other flip side that just as a

575
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 1: baseball fan would have been really cool to see a

576
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:44,399
Speaker 1: guy like Edwin Diaz go out there and just like

577
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:46,880
Speaker 1: big balls back to back, said see if could shut

578
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:48,320
Speaker 1: them out twice a row of the guy's second base, and

579
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:51,359
Speaker 1: also think there's a weird fear that even as good

580
00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:52,800
Speaker 1: as Diaz is, it's still so.

581
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:53,880
Speaker 2: Hard to keep that run there.

582
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,359
Speaker 1: Totally you don't want to burn him because he wouldn't

583
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:57,640
Speaker 1: be able to have pitched to day, But it didn't

584
00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:58,679
Speaker 1: matter because the that's lose, so.

585
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:00,440
Speaker 2: Any pitch another great today.

586
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 1: But even even when he gets to eleventh inning, you

587
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,399
Speaker 1: figure like it's okay, like Tyler Rodgers can do it.

588
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:08,200
Speaker 1: And then you get the gift where that was a c.

589
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:10,200
Speaker 1: J Abras makes a bonehead play. I think the reason

590
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 1: he was out of the lineup on Sunday and he

591
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 1: runs into an out third base start that eleven, denning

592
00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,280
Speaker 1: after they failed to score a run in the tenth inning,

593
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 1: when the seem Nunia pops up bunch to start again.

594
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,479
Speaker 1: They're giving this national team sucks. They're giving you gifts

595
00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 1: over and over and over again. And then Dylan Lyle

596
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 1: hits a fucking rocket that Cedric Mullins turns.

597
00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,200
Speaker 2: Over the wrong shoulder. He couldn't have played it worse. Yeah,

598
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:31,360
Speaker 2: I think he could definitely play the worst that could

599
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:31,520
Speaker 2: he have.

600
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:34,400
Speaker 1: We got inside the park home run he Cedric mullinside

601
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 1: the parking run was more of the bounced than the turn.

602
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:39,280
Speaker 1: That showed to me how how fucked up in the

603
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 1: head Cedric Mullins is, because that was that was a horrible, horrible,

604
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,879
Speaker 1: inexcusable play by the center fielder. I've tried to be

605
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,440
Speaker 1: nice about Cedric Mullins because I think the fan base

606
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,240
Speaker 1: is killing him. Fan base was all over the centerfielders

607
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:53,480
Speaker 1: this series, rightfully, so I can't.

608
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 2: Defend him on that one.

609
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,719
Speaker 1: That was as a play as a center fielder, as

610
00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:58,920
Speaker 1: a guy who's a professional center.

611
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:02,160
Speaker 2: Fielder and not he was not even close.

612
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 1: And then to sell out on the ball you weren't

613
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,160
Speaker 1: even close to inside the park home run.

614
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 2: It's like, fuck me, how does this keep happening?

615
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,200
Speaker 1: And then another bizarre strange play on Sunday with Cedric

616
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,119
Speaker 1: Mullins where the same guy hit the inside the parker

617
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 1: on Saturdays ironic because out of his dayly Lyle crashing

618
00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 1: into the wall and it did look like he caught

619
00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:23,080
Speaker 1: the ball. This was similar to that Braves play months ago,

620
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 1: remember one, And so though it was Ronald to Counean

621
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:28,560
Speaker 1: Junior and Mullins didn't realize he didn't actually catch it.

622
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:31,080
Speaker 1: He was kind of he rounded first base and kind

623
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:32,960
Speaker 1: of broke it all down, was basically walking back to

624
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,480
Speaker 1: dugout until they realized everyone screaming at him saying go,

625
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 1: go go. But then when he turned around, it still

626
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:39,800
Speaker 1: looked like Torrenz was tagging up and he explained this

627
00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 1: in the post game. But then at that point he

628
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 1: did finally break for a second, but apparently time had

629
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:45,640
Speaker 1: been called because the trainer was really leaving and she's like, well,

630
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:48,879
Speaker 1: it was definitely a play where like similar to you're saying, well,

631
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,480
Speaker 1: you could just see how mentally shattered he is broken,

632
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:53,240
Speaker 1: and at the same time.

633
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 2: He still should have gotten second base.

634
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:56,879
Speaker 1: I didn't realized that time could be called in that moment, Like,

635
00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 1: I thought that was a weird play, the weird way

636
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:01,480
Speaker 1: they played it. It a bizarre play. But at the

637
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:04,160
Speaker 1: same time, it's like it's like the lame like football

638
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,520
Speaker 1: term like play through the whistle. Definitely, Oh, you're right,

639
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 1: you've got to play through the whistle. And that's that's

640
00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 1: the ship that drives me insane about this Mets team,

641
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:15,439
Speaker 1: and that I see with the Nationals. Cedric Mullins crashes

642
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 1: into aall Dalen Lyne Lyle as soon as he hit

643
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,160
Speaker 1: that baseball was like inside the park home run. I'm

644
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:23,840
Speaker 1: not fucking stopping until someone hustles me. He's awesome, awesome

645
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 1: baseball player. He's young too, He's a strong kid. I

646
00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 1: think actually, if he just boosts up that batspeed a

647
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:30,359
Speaker 1: little bit, they might have a real good player there,

648
00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:32,360
Speaker 1: because he's got one of the slowest swings in baseball,

649
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:34,280
Speaker 1: so he just physically can't hit the ball as hard

650
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 1: as anybody else.

651
00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:37,200
Speaker 2: But he's really good. He's fun to watch.

652
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,440
Speaker 1: The Nationals were playing, were playing through the whistle in

653
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:43,920
Speaker 1: these games, Jacob Young making those catches, Dylan Lyle even

654
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,359
Speaker 1: he crashed into the wall on that ball on that play,

655
00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:49,439
Speaker 1: that's Cedric Mullens hit Like, I don't see that level

656
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 1: from the Mets right now. And I thought, Cedric Mullens

657
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 1: staying at first base and what was I mean end

658
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 1: up being a double play. If he was on second base,

659
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:58,800
Speaker 1: it's not a double play. Then you can keep going.

660
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,520
Speaker 1: Oh so everything different. You get that pitch in that spot.

661
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,240
Speaker 1: First patients of course also not playing there. It was

662
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,280
Speaker 1: a moment where it felt deflating for him not to

663
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:07,919
Speaker 1: have been on second base, because it did he like

664
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:09,040
Speaker 1: it could be easy to get there.

665
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 2: There's there's a world he could have been on third.

666
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:12,600
Speaker 1: I think the shortstop ran out to get the ball

667
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 1: on left field like it's It was weird, but also

668
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:18,680
Speaker 1: at the same time, for a guy in Cedric Mullins,

669
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:21,640
Speaker 1: who nothing is going right, you can't let that happen.

670
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 1: You got to make a play. You got to make

671
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 1: something happen. Nobody on this BET's team was making something

672
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 1: happen besides Wan Soda. He also did go slide in

673
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:29,680
Speaker 1: the second base, but apparently they already called him. He

674
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:31,119
Speaker 1: had to go back to first Did you not did

675
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:32,920
Speaker 1: you not see what the call was? Thank god they

676
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:37,640
Speaker 1: called he was host He was host. I'm like, dude, mom, man, please,

677
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,119
Speaker 1: I'm trying. I'm trying to have your back here, Cedric,

678
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:45,040
Speaker 1: but him and Siri have been Oh my god, I

679
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:48,119
Speaker 1: don't like have a Friday Siri.

680
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:49,399
Speaker 2: I couldn't believe that.

681
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:53,040
Speaker 1: I thank god Tyrone Taylor's hurt because he I think

682
00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:54,920
Speaker 1: they would have caught him after that game on Friday,

683
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,879
Speaker 1: one of the worst baseball games I've ever watched. He

684
00:26:57,920 --> 00:26:59,840
Speaker 1: clanked the ball in the gap, which tough player even

685
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:01,800
Speaker 1: gets there. But how many times is it going to

686
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 1: hit his glove and he doesn't catch it. That's like

687
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:05,639
Speaker 1: three on the season. That's unbelievable.

688
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:06,200
Speaker 2: And then the.

689
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:08,600
Speaker 1: Ball has a base running mist stakes two yeah on

690
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 1: Dylan Lyle again, Dale Nile hit a ball in the gap,

691
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 1: but it was a tough play. Serie tried to cut

692
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 1: it off, try and keep it a single. Wasn't even close,

693
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:20,000
Speaker 1: not even remotely close. Back turned automatic triple. I think

694
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 1: he scored a run there. It's just like the Mets

695
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:26,400
Speaker 1: make every mistake possible. They do not play clean baseball.

696
00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:30,200
Speaker 1: They're making errors all over the field. They're not running

697
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:32,720
Speaker 1: the not running the base as well. Again, this is

698
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:34,840
Speaker 1: what losing teams do. This is what teams were not

699
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 1: prepared to. This is what teams who are feeling the

700
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:40,160
Speaker 1: pressure due. And a lot of it falls on Carlos

701
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 1: Mendez's shoulders as well.

702
00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:44,639
Speaker 2: So much of falls on the player shoulder as well.

703
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 2: As I know, it's everybody, no one.

704
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 1: There's very few guys like Soto's doing it offensively, but

705
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:53,040
Speaker 1: he had the errors on Saturday. Y Lindor's been doing offensively,

706
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 1: but he made a bad throw on Sunday, like Pete

707
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:56,280
Speaker 1: made an error. You can point to every one of

708
00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 1: these guys defensively. We're on the base paths not sharp

709
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:00,880
Speaker 1: right now, and that's not that good.

710
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:01,520
Speaker 2: You can't do that.

711
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:05,240
Speaker 4: When you think fair harbor, you should think soft, you

712
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:09,119
Speaker 4: should think buttery liner. But it's not just the bathing suits,

713
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:12,159
Speaker 4: are the shorts, it's also sweatshirts like the one that

714
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:15,720
Speaker 4: I'm wearing right now, Kratz. It is stupid soft.

715
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 5: It's ridiculous that a shirt that can one keep you warm,

716
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 5: two be so soft, and three so lightweight, like the

717
00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:26,320
Speaker 5: collar everything. You don't even feel like you actually have

718
00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:27,080
Speaker 5: a hoodie on.

719
00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 2: But you do.

720
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 4: It is a lightweight hoodie and it feels incredible. So

721
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:35,320
Speaker 4: you should go get one yourself. Also for bathing suits,

722
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:38,680
Speaker 4: for shorts, for whatever clothes that you're interested in where

723
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:40,880
Speaker 4: you want to basically feel like you're not wearing them

724
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:43,400
Speaker 4: but you are. That's what Fair Harbor can bring to

725

Speaker 2: La Door's throw. He got the air for it.

732
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:06,880
Speaker 1: It wasn't a good throw, but it also wasn't horrific

733
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:08,240
Speaker 1: throat like he kind of just threw it into the

734
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:10,680
Speaker 1: guy sliding again. He seemed like really could have stopped

735
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:12,640
Speaker 1: and he couldn't even stop it behind him. Then that

736
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:14,440
Speaker 1: seem Nunia hits the home right after. That's just to

737
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:18,800
Speaker 1: click the early endings on Saturday too. Terrible, horrible, awful,

738
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:20,720
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, everyone's making bad plays.

739
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 2: It's just it's it's not clean.

740
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 1: It's not they're not playing like a team that has

741
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:28,280
Speaker 1: any kind of fire lit right now, knowing that they

742
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 1: could lose a playoff spot, like, there's absolutely no tenacity whatsoever.

743
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:34,680
Speaker 2: The season would be over this time next week.

744
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:38,160
Speaker 1: Oh literally exactly at this time next week, season very

745
00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 1: well could be over.

746
00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:39,360
Speaker 2: We're not.

747
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 1: We don't we're not in the playoffs right now. We

748
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 1: don't play yeah, literally out of it right now. It's

749
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 1: just it's it's kind of embarrassing to watch the team

750
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:49,280
Speaker 1: do this day in and day out. It's really like

751
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:51,480
Speaker 1: sad to be a part of truthful at this point. No,

752
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 1: this is a this is a shell of the team

753
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 1: that we expected them to be. They're they're playing so poorly,

754
00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 1: and yet there's six games left. And I'm not gonna

755
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:04,720
Speaker 1: tell you to be excited, but six games left and

756
00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:05,400
Speaker 1: make it happen.

757
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:07,239
Speaker 2: Every game is a must win now.

758
00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:09,880
Speaker 1: You you have to win every game the rest of

759
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:11,920
Speaker 1: the season, and you still might not make it, but

760
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:12,360
Speaker 1: you have to.

761
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:13,280
Speaker 2: You have to win. Everyone.

762
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,000
Speaker 1: Tuesday night is the biggest game of the season. It

763
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:17,600
Speaker 1: should be treated like Game seven of the world. So

764
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:20,080
Speaker 1: usually have to win, and then you have to win Wednesday,

765
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:21,880
Speaker 1: and then you have to win Thursday, and then you

766
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,480
Speaker 1: gotta hope to beat the Marlins. This is the situation

767
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,880
Speaker 1: that they put themselves in. It's frustrating, it sucks, but

768
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:30,520
Speaker 1: they better step the fuck up or everyone's going home.

769
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,840
Speaker 1: And like me, I was feeling like the Mets today,

770
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:35,600
Speaker 1: maybe thinking about some tropical vibes. I got a Penia

771
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,560
Speaker 1: Colada Celsius to get ready for this episode. That's gonna

772
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 1: be drinking pina coladas if they don't play some good

773
00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:43,840
Speaker 1: fucking baseball over the next week. No free ads, guy,

774
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:47,120
Speaker 1: what you doing here? But it's just one so so

775
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 1: it's it. Of course I always want to make the playoffs,

776
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,840
Speaker 1: but I I have this team, so doesn't just irve it?

777
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:58,120
Speaker 2: No, they stay. It's also so funny to go through

778
00:30:58,160 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 2: the series, like besides again.

779
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 1: That that Tyler Rodger's ball, but the extra innings with

780
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:05,160
Speaker 1: Cedric Malls making the misplay. The bullpen actually was totally

781
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:08,040
Speaker 1: fine in all these games, like the Dicky Love Lady

782
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 1: Watscar Braze Bond like they were holding it down. So though,

783
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 1: like everybody was absolutely holding it down in these games.

784
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:15,000
Speaker 1: And then it's just the office now, so you can't

785
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,840
Speaker 1: the meme at Hellsley another nice inning, two pretty good strike.

786
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 1: Gus Well Capable of Backdoor said, had not seen him

787
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 1: even throw yet on this team, and it's just even

788
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:27,880
Speaker 1: McLain fighting through that bullshit, multiple wild pitches a couple

789
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,480
Speaker 1: of hours behind him being able to get himself even

790
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:32,160
Speaker 1: just through the five. I even thought there was a chance,

791
00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:35,160
Speaker 1: but I think that was another situation where they might

792
00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 1: have pushed McLain for six with the twelve innings that

793
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,840
Speaker 1: he that keeps his rookie eligibility for next year. I

794
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 1: think that was a yankem of ninety pitches there, which

795
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:43,880
Speaker 1: is funny because again, all we're trying to do threout

796
00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:45,240
Speaker 1: the needle you guys listen to is talk to Will

797
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 1: Sam and if you haven't came out Saturday, kind of

798
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,440
Speaker 1: just about the David Turns philosophy and like the pluses

799
00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 1: and minuses of it as we've seen them this year,

800
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 1: where you're going to make a lot of great cinders

801
00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 1: on the margins, but sometimes a complete and surreal focus

802
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:01,040
Speaker 1: on the margins comes back to bite this team in

803
00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 1: the as and now you just kind of have six games.

804
00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:05,960
Speaker 1: You can't really predict or project or figure anything out.

805
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:07,600
Speaker 1: You just have to go and do it. It's gonna

806
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:11,560
Speaker 1: be a hell week, absolute hell week of baseball coming

807
00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:15,280
Speaker 1: up Cubs and Marlins. God, especially again, it's gonna be

808
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:16,840
Speaker 1: ironic too, because the Cubs just had one of the

809
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:20,600
Speaker 1: worst four games series they've had all season against the Reds.

810
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:22,680
Speaker 1: Got swept four in a row, scored like seven runs

811
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:24,240
Speaker 1: in the four games in total. I'm gonna get the

812
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:26,080
Speaker 1: exact amount of runs to have right here, blowing it

813
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 1: up right now. But they lost one nothing, seven four

814
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 1: sixty three and one nothing. Again, when's like the last time,

815
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:34,280
Speaker 1: like you as a person, like you felt pressure, you

816
00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:36,800
Speaker 1: felt nervous, you felt tight, Because I mean, it's gotta

817
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,640
Speaker 1: be the worst feeling ever for these guys with how

818
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 1: tight they are teams like every single day again, unless

819
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,760
Speaker 1: your name is Peter Alonzo for instance, Will Endoor, Juan Soto,

820
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:50,240
Speaker 1: everybody's just like this tight, hate their own skin. And

821
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:52,560
Speaker 1: it's just so awkward too that this is like you

822
00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:54,240
Speaker 1: two years in a row, we've left City Field for

823
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 1: the last game of the year, being like, I don't

824
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:58,040
Speaker 1: know if they're coming back, Yeah.

825
00:32:57,880 --> 00:32:58,560
Speaker 2: I don't know.

826
00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:01,160
Speaker 1: It's a conversation where definitely gonna have more in the

827
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:05,040
Speaker 1: offseason rather than right now. But there there is some

828
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 1: real conversation about what this team looks like in twenty

829
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,239
Speaker 1: twenty six, and how many of the guys on this

830
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:12,920
Speaker 1: current iteration will or even should be on this.

831
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,240
Speaker 2: Roster, shouldn't will very different there.

832
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,040
Speaker 1: But just before we preview this Cup series, tell her,

833
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 1: tell me about what the vibes you're like in the

834
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:19,200
Speaker 1: ballpark on Sunday.

835
00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:20,320
Speaker 2: It was the energy of the attitude.

836
00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:22,960
Speaker 1: It was a weird one because I think everyone knew

837
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:26,160
Speaker 1: this could be Pete Alonzo's last game at Cityfield.

838
00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:28,440
Speaker 2: Technically could be. I think I think he will be back.

839
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:28,720
Speaker 2: I don't.

840
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:31,160
Speaker 1: I'm terrified of a team that I think might go

841
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:35,520
Speaker 1: after him, but not being the Phillies, but it could

842
00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:37,480
Speaker 1: be his last game at Cityfield. As New York met

843
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:42,120
Speaker 1: technically Edwin Diaz, it probably is his last game at Cityfield.

844
00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:43,560
Speaker 1: Hasn't met unless they make the playoffs and go on

845
00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:45,440
Speaker 1: a run, because of course the wild Card round, even

846
00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:47,120
Speaker 1: if we make it, we won't have a home game,

847
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:50,920
Speaker 1: so we have to get to the NLDS. It's like

848
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:53,760
Speaker 1: it was weird because people were cheering and happy, and

849
00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:57,240
Speaker 1: I think because like Jacob Young made these spectacular catches,

850
00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 1: there was a lot less booing because you felt like

851
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:01,720
Speaker 1: the Mets just got a little unlucky in this one,

852
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 1: but me personally, granted, I ripped this one alone. I

853
00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:09,960
Speaker 1: was like, I felt I felt nothing being there, and

854
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,560
Speaker 1: that's a rare feeling at a baseball game, to feel

855
00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:16,839
Speaker 1: absolutely nothing. Yes, I have apathy for this team right now.

856
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:18,640
Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever had that true apathy for

857
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:20,839
Speaker 1: a Mets team in the past. Again, I tweeted, I'm

858
00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:24,040
Speaker 1: so fucking tired of this team. I love me and

859
00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,319
Speaker 1: you love baseball.

860
00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 2: Like live breathing.

861
00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:30,560
Speaker 1: We made another channel for us to monetize more of

862
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:33,760
Speaker 1: our baseball conversations because that's all we We love baseball

863
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,279
Speaker 1: so much and I love rooting for the Mets. The

864
00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:38,600
Speaker 1: Mets are all like I couldn't imagine being a fan

865
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:42,600
Speaker 1: of another team. But damn this this team has taken something

866
00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:44,400
Speaker 1: out of me that I did not think a baseball

867
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:48,239
Speaker 1: team could. Where they are an unenjoyable watch day in

868
00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 1: and day out. They have a stench, they have bad energy,

869
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:53,279
Speaker 1: bad bady language, Like we keep saying all the same things.

870
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:54,640
Speaker 2: It's kind of like they did at the beginning of

871
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:55,120
Speaker 2: last year.

872
00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:56,440
Speaker 1: If you look at some of the episodes that we

873
00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:58,240
Speaker 1: had last year at the start of the year before

874
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:02,319
Speaker 1: Grimace and OMG and all that nonsense. It's it's got

875
00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:06,440
Speaker 1: that same feeling of just like God, nobody really feels.

876
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:09,320
Speaker 2: Excited to be here right now. It's just as ugh.

877
00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:13,600
Speaker 1: It's just it's a gross look feel, smell everything about it.

878
00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:17,000
Speaker 1: We're gonna get some crazy stories at the end of

879
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:20,360
Speaker 1: the season. Another time, you found Michael Shout of the

880
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,760
Speaker 1: guy Jeremy that we met on Saturday night in Astoria

881
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:24,000
Speaker 1: talking about that stuff.

882
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:24,880
Speaker 2: Big fan of the podcast.

883
00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:26,880
Speaker 1: He was telling us that this team needs like something

884
00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:28,680
Speaker 1: crazy just in the locker room next year. And he

885
00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:30,800
Speaker 1: was talking about it was rout for Wilson con Treres

886
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:32,840
Speaker 1: and I was like, cool, you sh should get a

887
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:34,839
Speaker 1: cool pet. But he's like dangerous, Like they should get

888
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:37,520
Speaker 1: a poisoned dart frog where there's a thread of danger

889
00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:39,879
Speaker 1: at all times. But he's loose, he's around, he could

890
00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,640
Speaker 1: jump on, might poison you. That keeps some sharp maybe

891
00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:44,640
Speaker 1: puts put the pressure in the clubhouse so they get

892
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:46,880
Speaker 1: on the field like, I won't die, I have no danger.

893
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:49,160
Speaker 2: Just throw a bunch of tarantulas out there and there

894
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,759
Speaker 2: let them walk around the clubhouse. Yeah, I just it's I.

895
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:53,319
Speaker 1: Don't know what this And again it's I don't want

896
00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:54,400
Speaker 1: I'm not we don't want to talk about the off

897
00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:56,280
Speaker 1: season because there's six games left. We can and should

898
00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:57,640
Speaker 1: still be in the playoffs. And if you get into

899
00:35:57,640 --> 00:35:59,919
Speaker 1: the playoffs, who the fuck knows, doesn't. I don't feel

900
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:01,440
Speaker 1: off of any of those things that just said. But

901
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:03,520
Speaker 1: that's still where my mind's at. I'm gonna stay there.

902
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:06,360
Speaker 1: And that's what's that you burn. I'm burning paper towels.

903
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:08,279
Speaker 1: But this is gonna be my stage. I just got

904
00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:10,120
Speaker 1: I gotta I just gotta change the vibes a little bit,

905
00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:12,839
Speaker 1: because can you see this on the camera? You can, Yeah,

906
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 1: you can see that. Yeah, it's good. First live fire,

907
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:17,399
Speaker 1: the ever in the Mess the podcast. Yeah, while you're talking,

908
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,319
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna I'm gonna be blessing what's going on? Yeah,

909
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:22,640
Speaker 1: because one of our favorite episodes ever is when we

910
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:24,560
Speaker 1: talked about all the good vibes and how to break

911
00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:26,400
Speaker 1: curses and turn some luck around.

912
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:28,880
Speaker 2: We need that badly.

913
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:30,759
Speaker 1: We have like one more day to actually go to

914
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,520
Speaker 1: a witch doctor we might have. Maybe I'll do that,

915
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:34,960
Speaker 1: Maybe I'll do this week. Maybe I'll do like a

916
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:36,680
Speaker 1: psychic in Bushwick or something.

917
00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:38,040
Speaker 2: Theyboy work for what you're looking for.

918
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:42,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, but head in Chicago. Wait, massive, what do quick

919
00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:45,120
Speaker 1: media marvel like for a second? Yeah, sure, but you

920
00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:49,080
Speaker 1: got Andy Martino's horrendous, awful tweet about how Gunner Henderson

921
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:52,440
Speaker 1: Martiendo's are having similar seasons this year, which I mean,

922
00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:55,040
Speaker 1: I didn't think anything of Andy Martino. I didn't respect

923
00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:58,680
Speaker 1: them as as a baseball reporter. I don't know what

924
00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 1: we'd even call him these days. But but that just

925
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:03,840
Speaker 1: showed that this guy, he didn't even have his fastball anymore.

926
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:07,160
Speaker 1: That's like such, that's such an idiotic tweet. I couldn't

927
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:09,640
Speaker 1: believe it. In case you guys at home don't know

928
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:11,560
Speaker 1: what we're referencing, I'll read it out to you verbat

929
00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:12,480
Speaker 1: him right now.

930
00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:13,960
Speaker 2: What that moron said.

931
00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:17,279
Speaker 1: But he went out and said, how hard is it

932
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:19,239
Speaker 1: to be a young player in New York? Look at

933
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:22,680
Speaker 1: Mark Vento's and Gunner Henderson's offensive seasons. Viento's not that

934
00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:26,600
Speaker 1: far behind. But here's the whole disclosure discourse about him.

935
00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 1: Rather than normal ups and downs, he's got a sixty

936
00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:33,839
Speaker 1: point lower batting average if you're a batting average guy,

937
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,279
Speaker 1: he's got a seventy point lower ops. And I know

938
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:40,080
Speaker 1: that he only said offensive, but that's not how baseball works.

939
00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:42,279
Speaker 1: It's there's two sides to the game. There's actually three

940
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 1: af you count base running. Gunnar Henderson's having a five

941
00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:46,799
Speaker 1: win season, what is considered a down year for him.

942
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:50,560
Speaker 1: Mark Fiento's scored in Baseball Reference war zero flat. He

943
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:52,800
Speaker 1: is the replacement player. That's crazy.

944
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:55,719
Speaker 2: I mean I even could compare the fangrass.

945
00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:57,919
Speaker 1: But Gunnar Henderson also one kind of has a built

946
00:37:57,920 --> 00:37:59,799
Speaker 1: an excuse that not builds an excuse, but like he

947
00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:02,520
Speaker 1: was police began the year injured mispring training, never really

948
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 1: got his feet under him, Like we'll definitely look back

949
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 1: at the what's going to be a string of five, six,

950
00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:08,440
Speaker 1: seven win seasons from Gunnar Henderson being like, oh yeah,

951
00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:09,560
Speaker 1: that was little. That was a little bump in the

952
00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:12,160
Speaker 1: road right there, where Vento's is still, like we said,

953
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:15,200
Speaker 1: kind of fighting to prove himself as an everyday player.

954
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:18,399
Speaker 1: And Gunner Henderson had two full seasons before this where

955
00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:21,400
Speaker 1: he was an elite baseball player last year last year

956
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:24,959
Speaker 1: literally an MVP caliber baseball player. Viento's just like a match.

957
00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 1: It's not those who aren't even in the same echelon

958
00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:32,760
Speaker 1: like such a weird comparison to like. Also, like Gunner

959
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,080
Speaker 1: Henderson was considered to be what a top ten player

960
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:38,200
Speaker 1: at worst coming into the year, Marfiento's was considered to

961
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:39,560
Speaker 1: be a DH option.

962
00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:42,080
Speaker 2: Like It's it's very different how these guys were viewed

963
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:42,520
Speaker 2: as well.

964
00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:45,520
Speaker 1: Last year, Vanto's had the one thirty WRC plus this

965
00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 1: year gun Henderson has won twenty.

966
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:47,880
Speaker 2: It's crazy.

967
00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:49,640
Speaker 1: So again that's the good year as the bad year.

968
00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:51,640
Speaker 1: Those two guys are never in the same echelon. Last year,

969
00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:53,480
Speaker 1: Mark Veanns was great year. He barely had half the

970
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 1: wins above replacement that that Gunnar Henrison is going to

971
00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:57,400
Speaker 1: have this year in the bad year Like that was

972
00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,279
Speaker 1: just so sotpid. I think a lot of these guys

973
00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:01,279
Speaker 1: with the New York's horse report there, it is hard

974
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:03,200
Speaker 1: to keep attention to all the things going on in

975
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:03,840
Speaker 1: the other teams.

976
00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:04,680
Speaker 2: That's what the wind up is.

977
00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:06,239
Speaker 1: Force you guys to track all that with Mark and

978
00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:08,880
Speaker 1: I talk about players all over the league, but those

979
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:10,840
Speaker 1: who should never be in the same sentence again unless

980
00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:13,359
Speaker 1: they like wind Up his teammate someday. Yeah, unless you're

981
00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 1: talking about like these are two players that aren't similar

982
00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:17,400
Speaker 1: at all. Yeah, these are two guys who are a

983
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:19,200
Speaker 1: year apart in age, because he is still a full

984
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:21,000
Speaker 1: year younger than Mark Fanza too, which is another funny

985
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:23,759
Speaker 1: part about that. But quick, just get a little bit

986
00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:25,840
Speaker 1: that I don't even have the heart to chill on

987
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:26,719
Speaker 1: Andy Martina right now.

988
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:27,719
Speaker 2: This team holds out of.

989
00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:29,880
Speaker 1: Me day ends, and why I can dunk on that

990
00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:33,640
Speaker 1: guy any chance I get facing the cups Tuesday night,

991
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:35,239
Speaker 1: a Monday off day. I don't know what these guys.

992
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:38,480
Speaker 1: They should burn some stage themselves. But Lake Games, Chicago,

993
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:42,600
Speaker 1: the Central time Zone, seven to forty David Peterson versus

994
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 1: Cave horton Wednesday, eight pm ESPN game Jonah Toog versus

995
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:51,040
Speaker 1: Matthew Boy the Left. He can't wait for that. And

996
00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:55,320
Speaker 1: then Thursday another seven forty Brandon sprote for the chat Monica,

997
00:39:56,000 --> 00:40:00,680
Speaker 1: No monagamanaga you you always eas we'll say it wrong

998
00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:01,719
Speaker 1: once in a while.

999
00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:02,520
Speaker 2: Usually I do say it right.

1000
00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:04,279
Speaker 1: I say it's so much, but yeah, whatever, I just

1001
00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:06,279
Speaker 1: I even see those three pitchers. I'm I can't hit

1002
00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:08,279
Speaker 1: those guys. No, of course, not two of them are left.

1003
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 1: Two of them are lefty. We have no chance.

1004
00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:12,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, two lefties, damn.

1005
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 1: I mean I Managa is kind of lefty, like he's

1006
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:19,719
Speaker 1: left people without sweepers or anything. So this would be

1007
00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:21,799
Speaker 1: that that would be a funny sweepers. Isn't that his

1008
00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:24,200
Speaker 1: whole thing does? But the splithers the pitch for him. Okay,

1009
00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:26,279
Speaker 1: So I don't know, doesn't matter.

1010
00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:27,920
Speaker 2: We can't hit it. We won't hit him. No, no, we

1011
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:29,880
Speaker 2: can't hit anybody. I understand. I mean, we should be

1012
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:30,640
Speaker 2: able to hit these guys.

1013
00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:34,680
Speaker 1: I we should be metch should be in the playoffs

1014
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:37,560
Speaker 1: if you looked at this roster, but they're not right now.

1015
00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:39,760
Speaker 2: They are out of the postseason at this exact moment.

1016
00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:42,480
Speaker 1: Tell you guys about Kate Horton, exciting rookie for the

1017
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:44,680
Speaker 1: Cubs this season out of the University of Oklahoma. Was

1018
00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:46,680
Speaker 1: a high draft pick, was a big prospect, double some

1019
00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:49,279
Speaker 1: injuries kind of lost the prospect shine, but now got

1020
00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:51,239
Speaker 1: to the majors this year. Was up and down for

1021
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,600
Speaker 1: his first few months and then since the All Star break.

1022
00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:57,319
Speaker 1: I'm just a wicked tear era under two, whip under one.

1023
00:40:57,480 --> 00:40:59,800
Speaker 1: Like he's been absolutely on the money and he's a strange.

1024
00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:02,080
Speaker 1: We saw him when the Mets, when the Cubs came

1025
00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:03,719
Speaker 1: to the City Field, that was like was first I'm

1026
00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:04,879
Speaker 1: like his actual major league debut.

1027
00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:07,239
Speaker 2: If I remember correctly, it was close. I'll look it up.

1028
00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:09,720
Speaker 1: It was either first or second Star. But he's changed.

1029
00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:11,200
Speaker 1: He's kind of grown up a lot since then. Like

1030
00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:14,080
Speaker 1: he's a fastball sweeper guy, and that was his That

1031
00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:15,640
Speaker 1: was like a great way to start, but there's always

1032
00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:18,359
Speaker 1: going to be struggles against lefties. That was debut, yeah,

1033
00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:19,960
Speaker 1: because I ever had the nice streckout of so though

1034
00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:21,560
Speaker 1: was either a change up or a curve, and I

1035
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:23,040
Speaker 1: was like, huh, if he can have that, like, he'll

1036
00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:25,359
Speaker 1: be pretty good. As the summer's gone on, he's gained

1037
00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:27,760
Speaker 1: a lot of confidence in those two pitches. He's helped himself.

1038
00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:30,439
Speaker 1: They've really helped him face left handed batters. He also

1039
00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:32,200
Speaker 1: his fastballs is a cool thing. I probably told you

1040
00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:34,080
Speaker 1: guys is last time before the debuted, but it's like

1041
00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:35,680
Speaker 1: a pure color his forteing fastball.

1042
00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 2: That's the way he throws.

1043
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:38,520
Speaker 1: It, which is funny because he is mostly a straight

1044
00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:40,000
Speaker 1: up and down arm slot, which just the way he

1045
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:42,600
Speaker 1: gets off his fingers like it will move to his

1046
00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:45,799
Speaker 1: glove side like a color, so it makes it it

1047
00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:48,239
Speaker 1: really helps him against the lefties. But also doesn't isn't

1048
00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:50,239
Speaker 1: that great against the right. So I'm excited to see

1049
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:53,600
Speaker 1: how we attack him. But the guy that, yes, I am,

1050
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:56,319
Speaker 1: you're excited to see attack him, we're saying we got

1051
00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 1: six games slots. I've got an idea it's gonna be

1052
00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:02,440
Speaker 1: this strict one strike two defensive swing for a foul ball,

1053
00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:03,520
Speaker 1: strike three after that.

1054
00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:04,600
Speaker 2: He doesn't strike.

1055
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:07,040
Speaker 1: Many guys out, but he's good at mitigating the hard contact.

1056
00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:08,279
Speaker 1: He also to give up a lot of balls in

1057
00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:11,560
Speaker 1: the air, like he's a guy that everything under the surface.

1058
00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:13,560
Speaker 2: You think that his stats should be a bit worse.

1059
00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:15,120
Speaker 1: I do think that we might have just seen the

1060
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:17,080
Speaker 1: best two months retch that Kate Horton could have for

1061
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:20,319
Speaker 1: the next few years. He's gonna allow you to make

1062
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:22,120
Speaker 1: a lot of contacts, probably in a situation where you've

1063
00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:23,600
Speaker 1: got to try and be disciplined, make sure you get

1064
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:25,359
Speaker 1: the barrel on it, don't take too big of a swing,

1065
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:26,840
Speaker 1: and don't try to swing out of your shoes.

1066
00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:29,080
Speaker 2: Just just need them to wake up.

1067
00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:32,399
Speaker 1: It's like even talking about the other team doesn't match

1068
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:35,319
Speaker 1: the team that we play is irrelevant because we know

1069
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:37,799
Speaker 1: we won't. We can't show up against the Nationals I'm

1070
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:39,399
Speaker 1: sure if we played the White Sox right now instead

1071
00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:41,240
Speaker 1: of the Cubs, it would also be a struggle because

1072
00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:42,040
Speaker 1: why not.

1073
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:46,279
Speaker 2: Oh, the Marlins are gonna right now they discerrate us. Yeah.

1074
00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:48,160
Speaker 1: I mean, it's got as many one as we cant

1075
00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:49,839
Speaker 1: against the Cubs because that Marlin' serion is gonna get

1076
00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:54,880
Speaker 1: a sweep. I hate this. I hate this so much.

1077
00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:58,600
Speaker 1: I have no juice. I have no juice right now. Nothing,

1078
00:42:58,680 --> 00:42:59,560
Speaker 1: I feel nothing.

1079
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:02,640
Speaker 2: Now. They've taken the win out of my sales. Nice

1080
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:03,240
Speaker 2: a good one.

1081
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:05,680
Speaker 1: Then we got Matthew Boyce also, is gonna be funny

1082
00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:07,640
Speaker 1: to face him, because when you look back at the offseason,

1083
00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:09,520
Speaker 1: he's low key the one that got away for like

1084
00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:11,200
Speaker 1: every team in the league. But the fact that he's

1085
00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:14,160
Speaker 1: been able to give the Cubs one hundred seventy five

1086
00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:16,000
Speaker 1: innings with a three two in a one one is

1087
00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:19,120
Speaker 1: obscenely good. I don't think anybody on earth saw that coming.

1088
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:20,600
Speaker 1: I don't even think Jed Horrie and the Cubs saw

1089
00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:22,279
Speaker 1: this coming. Just happen to work out for them that way.

1090
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:25,319
Speaker 1: But he's just gonna soft toss us to death. You're

1091
00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:27,399
Speaker 1: gonna get some fast balls and some change ups. You're

1092
00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:29,279
Speaker 1: gonna be swinging through I'm not realizing which one's coming.

1093
00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:31,000
Speaker 1: A little slide that's not going to speck drop the

1094
00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:31,879
Speaker 1: big curve ball to the left.

1095
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:34,719
Speaker 2: He's it's gonna be it's gonna be annoying watch.

1096
00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:36,920
Speaker 1: But again, like there's no reason you can't hit these guys,

1097
00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:38,600
Speaker 1: like there really isn't. Like even Show tat too, like

1098
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:40,520
Speaker 1: Show does a good picture. He keeps runs off the board,

1099
00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:42,799
Speaker 1: but he will have those outings. We got a hold

1100
00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:44,720
Speaker 1: of him last season. Remember that day game that Friday

1101
00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:47,080
Speaker 1: afternoon put six home runs out. I think that was

1102
00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:49,160
Speaker 1: like the first time he got hit in the majors,

1103
00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:50,839
Speaker 1: And that was the first time we start to feel

1104
00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:51,200
Speaker 1: good too.

1105
00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:53,200
Speaker 2: That was right after the dog grim and stuff kind

1106
00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:54,880
Speaker 2: of began. He's then other guy. He's going to be

1107
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:55,600
Speaker 2: around the strike zone.

1108
00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:57,279
Speaker 1: You just gotta hit it, like he gives up tons

1109
00:43:57,320 --> 00:43:59,360
Speaker 1: of fly balls, tons of hard hit fly balls, like

1110
00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:02,960
Speaker 1: just you can't shows us really good at making you

1111
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:05,480
Speaker 1: swing in a pitch that just an inch inch and

1112
00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:07,399
Speaker 1: a half past where you should actually be swinging. He's

1113
00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:09,520
Speaker 1: an expert in the shadow of his own, which is

1114
00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:11,000
Speaker 1: a nightmare for a guy like Fiento's.

1115
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:11,359
Speaker 2: But like guy.

1116
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:14,120
Speaker 1: Look, so though, you should be able to get after

1117
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:16,200
Speaker 1: him and like make him come to you, and there

1118
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:18,040
Speaker 1: is something to that. Boy does the same thing too.

1119
00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:20,200
Speaker 1: The Cubs do a good job with that. Horton's learned

1120
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:21,520
Speaker 1: to do that well too. They do a good job

1121
00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:25,160
Speaker 1: with that, like pitching on the edges really carefully, not

1122
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:27,000
Speaker 1: giving something to hit, but making you think it's something

1123
00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:29,480
Speaker 1: to hit. That's something that it's taking him through the

1124
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:32,320
Speaker 1: good part of the season. And then their lineup, it's

1125
00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:34,520
Speaker 1: it's a lot of good players, tons of good players

1126
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:36,160
Speaker 1: in it. Did you see how the game ended on

1127
00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:37,320
Speaker 1: Sunday for them against the Reds?

1128
00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:38,319
Speaker 2: Didn't even bother.

1129
00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:40,759
Speaker 1: It was a was peak of armstrong s trakout with a

1130
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:44,279
Speaker 1: guy's scoring position to tying run. It's met killer there

1131
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:46,920
Speaker 1: it is, Yeah, there is, But mo I want to

1132
00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:49,160
Speaker 1: talk a mobile Steros quickly. The Cubs called him up

1133
00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:51,440
Speaker 1: like a month ago through Resco at this point is

1134
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:53,359
Speaker 1: a catcher, not really catcher. They just kind of needed

1135
00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:55,000
Speaker 1: some juice. So he's been their DH and he's a

1136
00:44:55,480 --> 00:44:58,640
Speaker 1: he's fun. He's another one of those guys who wasn't

1137
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:01,920
Speaker 1: re measure the reway, so he on Baseball Reference, the

1138

Speaker 1: Baseball savant. We just talked about the next wind up

Speaker 1: one sixty. He's just funny because he look at him

1141
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 1: like this guy's a load, but it's he's he's really fun.

1142
00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:14,439
Speaker 1: Lefty left the bat with some power, with some lifts

Speaker 1: the ball. Well, he's he's a fun dude.
