It was just like like, well, 141 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: you sign up for all of a sudden, you keep getting, 142 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 1: you keep getting I'm like, oh my god, stop stop 143 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 1: stop stop stop.

Well, 148 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 1: we got the Jets on Sunday, we don't beat the Jets, 149 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 1: may as well just give up. It's made be it 150 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: for the season for us. But let's not. Let's focus 151 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 1: on how the Yankees. Boy, they were ass and nod. 152 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 1: That was really that was a really tough night. I 153 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 1: mean really, bases loaded, nobody out in the Bronx and 154 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 1: Eraldus Chapman comes back to Yankees. They had seen this, 155 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 1: and you know the funny thing is watching people live 156 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: tweet this as it's going on. We've seen this playoff 157 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 1: Chapman before in the Bronx. Yeah, we've seen it. Yeah, 158 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 1: we've seen it. Yeah, loads of bases and then bang 159 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: bang bang, the inning is over, game over, Yankees tearing 160 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 1: it going home. All of that what you just said 161 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: there is completely irrelevant. Why is that over? The second 162 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: the Jets sent that tweet? That is true, but it 163 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: is fun seeing it play out there ilay out. Everything 164 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 1: else is fine we knew they were gonna get out 165 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: of it. Now. Look, the one thing I'm gonna say 166 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 1: is this is that with one out in the ninth inning, 167 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 1: right to get to get to talk strategy here for 168 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,199 Speaker 1: a second. I really am surprised there was no tag 169 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: up on the flyout to write, because you know, you 170 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:47,080 Speaker 1: would probably get the run in. I can't believe the 171 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: Red Sox through home, but you'll get this. It's it's 172 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 1: somewhat deep enough. And in theory, the right baseball play 173 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 1: by the Red Sox would be to throw it to 174 00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 1: third base, sure, right, and to keep to keep that 175 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: tying run from getting to third. But instead you saw 176 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 1: him throw home. But the Yankees didn't send a runner. 177 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 1: I thought for sure they'll at least try to juice 178 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 1: a run along in that in that type of it. 179 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 1: Not that it mattered in the end, because you know, 180 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:12,680 Speaker 1: they didn't get a hit at all, but I really thought, like, wow, 181 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 1: that was what like, what's you know? It brings you 182 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: more to the whole Aaron Boone thing, you know, lifting 183 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 1: a freed who was pitching phenomenal, got to one hundred pitches, 184 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:22,719 Speaker 1: Take him out, Take him out. Luke Weaver comes and 185 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 1: gives it up right away, you know, I mean Suzuki 186 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,319 Speaker 1: pinch hits and drives in a run. It's gone from 187 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 1: August get rid of Aaron Boone to the talk is quieted. 188 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 1: Now it's get rid of him, get rid of him, 189 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 1: and I mean it. I mean you see tonight and 190 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: it's a big difference. You see what all the the 191 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 1: managers asked of their aces for today in the playoffs, 192 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 1: and they came through right. Schoobl was done right like school, 193 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 1: the Tigers win today. Scoobl walked in, he said, I 194 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 1: emptied the tech. He had one hundred miles an hour 195 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 1: and that final inning when he was he thought, I'm 196 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: gonna be done, and they said, yeah, we need you 197 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 1: to want more inning. Okay, I'll go back out there. 198 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 1: He was up over one hundred pitches, right, Crochet was 199 00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: up over one hundred and fifteen pitches, like Freed, who's 200 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 1: you to shut out? And we're gonna take out of 201 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 1: the game to go to the bullpen, and all of 202 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: a sudden, look what happens man? I mean that it's 203 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 1: just more of the Aaron Boone Like what is what 204 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 1: is happening here? Like well, like well, all of a 205 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:12,719 Speaker 1: sudden they got to the playoffs and and like the 206 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,319 Speaker 1: free wheeling Yankees and the never and the Devil May 207 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,440 Speaker 1: Care Yankee, they're gone now they're going there one game 208 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 1: from going home. I just love that laugh. 209 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're you're a little too excited. I mean, they'll 210 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,199 Speaker 2: at least still be able to say they made the playoffs. 211 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 2: I know, it doesn't really count for much if you 212 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 2: go home and you know, get swept out. 213 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:36,960 Speaker 1: If they win as many games as the Mets, it 214 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 1: doesn't matter that it really, but it doesn't matter. They 215 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 1: still get to hang a banner. They do Benne for 216 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,439 Speaker 1: a squeaking in. It's a squeaking in banner. I say, 217 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 1: it's very very small bantner they put up all the 218 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:52,679 Speaker 1: way to the side. It gets even better. But all 219 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: of that to say, yeah, I mean he was able 220 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,479 Speaker 1: to skate. And because they they made it to the playoffs, 221 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 1: it gets you that stay of execution. He and Cashman. 222 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 1: It pushes things away, especially when you when you start going, well, 223 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: we didn't re sign that guy, we didn't do that. 224 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 1: We don't have these issues. And look they especially when 225 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 1: it's the Mets right with when they can hold up 226 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:19,079 Speaker 1: the giant sign like everybody else has the digital accounting 227 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: of how much money the Mets spent and well they 228 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 1: didn't even make it. So I mean, we're we're on grave. 229 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 1: You know, it's gravy over here, which is you can 230 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: only live on that for so long. Great, yeah, some 231 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:43,439 Speaker 1: heavy gravy, there's no question. Wait wait heavy gravy. I mean, 232 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 1: I mean I made it. You look at this and 233 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: just say, oh boy, soda would have been great in 234 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 1: that last sting. I mean really, that's the best part 235 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 1: is that soda would have been forgetting Again, all it's 236 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 1: irrelevant if he was on the team and he was 237 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 1: up uh yeah, but still it's fun to think, Hi 238 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: Stiff had some second The Jets sent out tweet it 239 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 1: was over guilt by association. Does your dad know this? 240 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 5: Oh? 241 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: I haven't talked to my dad. He's someone I know 242 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: I can't talk to until tomorrow, Like I can't because 243 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 1: I know exactly what he's gonna say. It's the bullpen's fault. 244 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 1: I always go, Dad, when you lose two to one, 245 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 1: it's not the bullpen's fault. But tonight I'm like, no, yeah, no, 246 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,200 Speaker 1: it kind of was. Yeah, no, no, it was freed. 247 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,839 Speaker 2: Was gonna be done shortly anyway, Right, you could say, 248 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 2: all right, it was one hundred and they pull him, Well, 249 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 2: how much further is he going? He's only going six 250 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 2: and a third. Like, you still got a lot of 251 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 2: ballgame to finish off. So a good job by the 252 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 2: Red Sox hitters to extended bats and force into the bullpen. 253 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, look, this is a game where look 254 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 1: it's one game, and you see this here and all that, 255 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,559 Speaker 1: and this is what I mean by by Yankee Nation. Now, like, 256 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 1: now get rid of Booneck because you knew this was 257 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: gonna come up. Because whatever decision that has made that 258 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 1: doesn't go the right way, it's always going to be 259 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 1: Boon's fault. Regardless of whether or not the decision was right. 260 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 1: When you made it, you got it wrong. It's like 261 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: when you and I give out fantasy advice. I was like, hey, 262 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 1: here's the advice Garrett Wilson, because the matchup is good, 263 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 1: and their number one cornerback is out and they're sliding 264 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 1: over a guy pro football fow, he's the sixty fifth 265 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,079 Speaker 1: All of that could come from. And then Garrett Wilson 266 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 1: has a bad day and then go, oh, why didn't 267 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:13,719 Speaker 1: you tell me why didn't you tell me to play 268 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 1: jaylen Waddle instead? That's your fault. Like, Okay, no, I 269 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 1: got I got it wrong. But it doesn't mean that 270 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: the information at the time was erroneous. Right, It's still 271 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 1: good information now we gave you. It's like it doesn't matter. 272 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,959 Speaker 1: All it matters is that what the Yankees did, whatever 273 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:29,680 Speaker 1: Aaron Boone does is wrong. 274 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 2: See for the last twenty five years working in the 275 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:37,719 Speaker 2: fantasy realm, my job is to get you to do 276 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 2: what I say. Whether it actually happens or not doesn't matter. 277 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 2: I did my job. If I made a compelling enough 278 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:47,960 Speaker 2: case for you to toggle your lineup to that player, that's it. 279 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 1: After that, it's on him to perform whatever Aaron Boone 280 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: decides is wrong and not having watch, Well, he didn't 281 00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 1: get kicked out, So I mean, at least you got 282 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 1: that going has killed the Yankees. That's killed them. It's 283 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 1: Carl and now Aaron Boon exit ou about a Fresca 284 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 1: exit swollen down the Jason Smith Show with my best 285 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,680 Speaker 1: friend Mike Carman.

He is out 289 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 1: of the game. The Dodgers have tagged him for five 290 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 1: runs already. As they are batting in the bottom of 291 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 1: the fourth inning, they lead the Reds five nothing.

It has been a night where 347 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 1: the Dodgers came out right away, started hitting the ball 348 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 1: and haven't really stopped. Shoe Heo Tani leading off with 349 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 1: a home run off one hundred mile an hour fastball 350 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 1: from Hunter Green, and that's really where everything has gone 351 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 1: for the Dodgers since, right you have to Oscar with 352 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 1: a home run, Edvon with a home run. They go 353 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:56,960 Speaker 1: back to back h Dodgers starting reminding everybody, this is 354 00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,359 Speaker 1: why we're a big favorite, and the Reds reminding everybody, oh, 355 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:00,960 Speaker 1: this is why we square even though we lost in 356 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 1: the final day of the season. 357 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:05,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I made a couple of bad, bad mistakes from 358 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 2: a Hunter Green and it was funny. It was right 359 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,920 Speaker 2: before we came on air, where I'm in the back 360 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 2: getting a cup of coffee talking to our guys, Shay 361 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 2: who's working hard editing with us tonight, and the wild 362 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:18,200 Speaker 2: pitch goes to the back stops like all right, they 363 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,359 Speaker 2: move up. It's like, all right, this next pitch is 364 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 2: going to be a problem, and sure enough, ta Oskar 365 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,119 Speaker 2: turns on it, three run homer and and blows the 366 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 2: game wide open. So three huge mistakes, five to nothing, 367 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 2: your lead, snow cruising along. Five innings, pitch seven strikeouts, 368 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 2: just sixty pitches thus far, so we can avoid the 369 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 2: bullpen for at least a Yeah. 370 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:40,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean it's so far. I mean, look, 371 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 1: it's been a day of incredible starting pitching performances in 372 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,160 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball. It's been some kind it's been some 373 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 1: kind of day, which we'll get to. 374 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:54,639 Speaker 2: That Cleveland game was no man Clubs Cubs and Padres 375 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:55,679 Speaker 2: three to one final. 376 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 1: This game is right now. I'm not even sweating snow. 377 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:00,880 Speaker 1: You know you should be sweating snow sweat. You shouldn't 378 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 1: be sweating. Snell his twelve start one of his start 379 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,720 Speaker 1: ages you like three years. Nah, you know what. 380 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,480 Speaker 2: Just because he looks tired doesn't mean it doesn't to you. 381 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:12,919 Speaker 1: He's been up late playing video games. Okay, it's been 382 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 1: a big thing. Blake wis on him heavily, don't He 383 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,880 Speaker 1: has never pitched for you. You don't understand it. No, No, 384 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 1: I I I'm well versed in the Blake Snell experience. 385 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,640 Speaker 1: How because I've watched his career for the past few years. 386 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 1: He's never pitched for you. It doesn't mean crappy team. Dude, 387 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,439 Speaker 1: you won the World Series because Kevin Cash decided I'm 388 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 1: taking him out of a game that was awesome. I'll 389 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 1: tell you this about Blake Snell Harmon, So I was 390 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 1: thinking about this, right, just seeing the type of pitcher 391 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 1: he is and what he's been able to do accomplished 392 00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:44,400 Speaker 1: so far in his career. He kind of I feel 393 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:49,679 Speaker 1: like he's on the path of becoming the new Madison Bumgardner, right, 394 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:53,400 Speaker 1: because bum Gardner wasn't so he was never really unbeatable 395 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 1: during the regular season. He was always very good, right, 396 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 1: He had that big five years that she was very good. 397 00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:59,160 Speaker 1: He had a couple of years where he was, yeah, 398 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 1: he was. We went it's a couple of yeah, week. 399 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 2: Or two ago as we were going through, like with 400 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 2: the Kershaw finishing of his career, where we're talking about 401 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 2: these kind of stretches and in the regular season there 402 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 2: was a three to four year period where he was 403 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 2: just insane. But then it got reinvented as a postseason specialist, right. 404 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 1: And well when you do what he did, what seven 405 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:20,919 Speaker 1: innings in the final game of the World Series in 406 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:24,159 Speaker 1: twenty fourteen to win it. I mean, it's incredible, but 407 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 1: you know, same type of situation where, look, you got 408 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,360 Speaker 1: two left handed pitchers, both have a lot of attitude. 409 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 1: Bumgarner was just always mad at everybody. Snell more of 410 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 1: a confidence in himself and seeing how yes, they perform 411 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:40,440 Speaker 1: really well during the season, but whenever the stakes are 412 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 1: uped a bit, they have that little bit extra in 413 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 1: the tank. And Bumgardner clearly at you watch him throughout 414 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:47,880 Speaker 1: his career, I don't know that I've seen a more 415 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 1: dominant postseason pitcher in my life than Bumgarner for that 416 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 1: six years. Like, yeah, I'm going all the way back 417 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 1: to the seventies when I'm watching bets go Okay, maybe 418 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,160 Speaker 1: Jim Palmer has a great game here, but I don't 419 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,199 Speaker 1: know I've seen anybody more dominant in the postseason him. 420 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 1: And I feel like Blake Snell is sort of on 421 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 1: that path where, yeah, really good during the regular season, 422 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 1: not as unbeatable as you would think, but then he 423 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 1: gets the postseason and you see the games he puts 424 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:12,440 Speaker 1: out there, and you go, man, this is amazing. Why couldn' 425 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:15,160 Speaker 1: kirsch r this? Like, man, this is amazing watching Blake 426 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:18,159 Speaker 1: Snell do this well, four and three for his career 427 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 1: and ten starts, twelve appearances, three three three era kind 428 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:26,400 Speaker 1: of goes back to that crochet season of last year 429 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 1: of the six and twelve, but you go back to 430 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:32,160 Speaker 1: his twenty nineteen run three games appearing, it was zero 431 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,520 Speaker 1: win one, but still had an ERA of one six nine. 432 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 1: It's got to like it was Paul Skeens. But all 433 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,399 Speaker 1: of that to say, working deeper into games and always 434 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:43,400 Speaker 1: the famous all right, I'm cruising along, but I'm gonna 435 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,400 Speaker 1: be taken out. The one time I think I really 436 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 1: wanted the extended remix to see a pitcher really want 437 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:54,639 Speaker 1: to fight his manager, right, not just the the the 438 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 1: thing he did with Dave robertson I'm not coming out. 439 00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,639 Speaker 1: That was fun. Yeah, so, but it it owes to 440 00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:05,360 Speaker 1: that run Dodgers and Rais when he's getting pulled out 441 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,360 Speaker 1: and has that wide eyed look of am I in 442 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:11,400 Speaker 1: the right universe right now? I mean read that. That's 443 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,440 Speaker 1: kind of where I'm looking at him, see, because now 444 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 1: he's on the best team. Right. Snell goes to the Giants. 445 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 1: They have a great team for a good six year, right, 446 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:21,400 Speaker 1: every other year they won the World Series, right, Blake 447 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: Snell has been on good teams, but he's never been 448 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,480 Speaker 1: on an overwhelming favorite. Okay, now here he is. And 449 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 1: so now for whatever his career is for the Dodgers, 450 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 1: still in his early thirties, Like this is where his 451 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 1: next five or six years you could say, man, Blake Snell, 452 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:35,719 Speaker 1: I mean you want him. I told you during regular 453 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: season the end of the regular season, he's got to 454 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:39,639 Speaker 1: have the ball in Game one. He's got to have 455 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 1: the ball as many times as possible over every other 456 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 1: Dodger pitcher. Yea'mamotos terrific. Right. Otani is Otani. Blake Snell 457 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:50,359 Speaker 1: needs the ball more than anybody in any pitcher on 458 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 1: the Dodgers roster throughout the playoff. Yeah, he's also one 459 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 1: of the guys. 460 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:57,200 Speaker 2: I mean before the offseason commenced till we started talking 461 00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 2: about free agency and where guys would sign. It's not 462 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,479 Speaker 2: a guy would have given a long term deal just 463 00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:08,920 Speaker 2: based on his history. Right between injuries, disappearing in the 464 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:14,120 Speaker 2: non Cy Young Award seasons, He's been a jag, right that. 465 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 2: That's been his career. He's had a couple of massive seasons. 466 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:20,119 Speaker 2: But then you have this deal where he comes forward 467 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 2: and the twelve games that he's pitched us far, he's 468 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:27,439 Speaker 2: been amazing. So finding the right stretch, because that's the 469 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,920 Speaker 2: thing that for this Dodgers team. We talked about the 470 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 2: bullpen a lot is that you don't have a lot 471 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 2: of work from guys this year. So in theory, there's 472 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,119 Speaker 2: still some gas in the tank. Right, it's not you 473 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,200 Speaker 2: only had a handful of guys actually get over two 474 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 2: hundred innings, which used. 475 00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 1: To be the standard. But but you got a Dodgers 476 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:46,160 Speaker 1: rotation where you don't have anybody going over one hundred. Now, dude, 477 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 1: you can get to one twenty. Yeah, Momoto, and that's it. 478 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 1: What a great season? Yet to one twenty? Now? Am 479 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 1: I missing somebody Frosburg on this list? 480 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:56,399 Speaker 5: Yes, you're missing you said the most dominant pitchers in 481 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 5: the postseason? 482 00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:00,919 Speaker 1: Right? Right? Okay, so you went with Bumgardner, right? Ye? 483 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:04,680 Speaker 1: Who am I missing any powers? Oh? Yes? And once 484 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:06,720 Speaker 1: he got his pitch back, Kenny Power, he had to 485 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:08,439 Speaker 1: get his pitch back. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 486 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 5: Even the dude from the office hit him. No, but 487 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:18,479 Speaker 5: for real, you left off and Andy Pennett's probably one 488 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 5: of the most dominant I've ever seen. 489 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 1: And Andy Pettitt is terrific. Any Pennet's up and Andy 490 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:25,640 Speaker 1: Pettitt is up there. But but bum Garner just raising 491 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 1: his his level of play so much as it's it's 492 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,439 Speaker 1: eye popping what he was at really coming out of 493 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:33,679 Speaker 1: you know, pitching on short rest all the time and 494 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:35,919 Speaker 1: coming in in the bullpen like like that's that's the 495 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,920 Speaker 1: legend of Bumgarner. And again it looks like Snow could 496 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:39,680 Speaker 1: be on that same path. 497 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, of course, the he who must not be named, 498 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,800 Speaker 2: he's like Voldemort over there, would like a word, the 499 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:46,400 Speaker 2: bloody suck. 500 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:50,200 Speaker 1: I got your favorite John Smoltz. Oh, sure, Smoltz is 501 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 1: great too. Smoltz was terrific too. But it's but again, 502 00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 1: Braves didn't always win. They they got one, Uh they did. 503 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:00,920 Speaker 1: They got one. They got one. They got one Dave 504 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 1: Justice home run and that decide in Game seven. So 505 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: we have more baseball coming up. But today is you know, 506 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,879 Speaker 1: today was a great and a terrible day in that 507 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 1: it was a great day that for one league, four 508 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:17,679 Speaker 1: minutes is going to change the course and trajectory of 509 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 1: this league. The bad part of it is that you 510 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:23,199 Speaker 1: needed to have these four minutes earlier today. Nafisa Collier, 511 00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:25,240 Speaker 1: who you know we thought was gonna win w NBA 512 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:27,159 Speaker 1: MVP this year. She was a front runner for a 513 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: long time. And then Asia Wilson the Aces you know, 514 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 1: didn't lose all the way through, and they're playing the 515 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:33,679 Speaker 1: fever right now in a in a in a win 516 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 1: or go home game in the playoffs. Nafisa Collier decided 517 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:41,879 Speaker 1: to take all the frustrations that w NBA players have 518 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 1: had over the past couple of seasons with Commissioner Kathy 519 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 1: Engelbert and the league over officiating, which they which they 520 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 1: tell you all the time, is terrible. There's consistent complaining 521 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:56,240 Speaker 1: and the league not doing anything about it. Nafisa Collier 522 00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:59,879 Speaker 1: in a four minute I don't want to say ran 523 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 1: today because she came with a prepared statement in four 524 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 1: minutes is going to affect more change in this league 525 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 1: than anything we've seen in the last year and a half. 526 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 1: Here's a little bit of her talking about how bad 527 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: she feels and other players weighing in saying yes, yes, 528 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 1: I'm with you. How bad the leadership of the WNBA 529 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:20,359 Speaker 1: has been the last couple of years. 530 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 3: The real threat to our league isn't money. It isn't 531 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:26,560 Speaker 3: ratings or even miss calls. Or even physical play. It's 532 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,920 Speaker 3: the lack of accountability from the league office. Since I've 533 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:32,680 Speaker 3: been in the league, you've heard the constant concerns about officiating, 534 00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:35,879 Speaker 3: and it has now reached levels of inconsistency that plague 535 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,400 Speaker 3: our sport and undermine the integrity in which it operates. 536 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:40,639 Speaker 3: Whether the league cares about the health of the players 537 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 3: is one thing, but to also not care about the 538 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 3: product we put on the floor is truly self sabotage. 539 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 3: Year off to year. The only thing that remains consistent 540 00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 3: is the lack of accountability from our leaders. 541 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:53,359 Speaker 1: So there you go, starting off with a bang. Okay, 542 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,159 Speaker 1: whoa lack of account o key. But we've seen this. 543 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 1: We've seen people talk about the front office and den 544 00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 1: leadership and okay, so good start for us. Good it's statement. Yeah, 545 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 1: and then she decides, now I'm bringing out the blowtorch here. 546 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:07,800 Speaker 1: She is one of her many specific examples in this 547 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 1: four minutes four minutes of Kathy Engelbert and her lack 548 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 1: of WNBA leadership. 549 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 3: I'm concerned about the future of our sport. Everyone deserves 550 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 3: to hear the truth. We have the best players in 551 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 3: the world, we have the best fans in the world. 552 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 3: But right now we have the worst leadership in the world. 553 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 3: At Unarrival this past February, I sat a across from 554 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 3: Kathy and asked how she planned to address the officiating 555 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:35,119 Speaker 3: issues in our league. Her response was, will only the 556 00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 3: losers complain about the refs? I also asked how she 557 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:40,879 Speaker 3: planned to fix the fact that players like Caitlin Angel 558 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 3: and Page, who are clearly driving massive revenue for the league, 559 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,920 Speaker 3: are making so little for their first four years. Her 560 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 3: response was, Caitlyn should be grateful she makes sixty million 561 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 3: off the court, because without the platform that the WNBA 562 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 3: gives her, she wouldn't make anything. And in that same conversation, 563 00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:59,639 Speaker 3: she told me players should be on their knees thanking 564 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 3: their lucky stars for the media right steal that I 565 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 3: got them. That's mentality driving our league from the top. 566 00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 3: We go to battle every day to protect a shield 567 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 3: that doesn't value us. The league believes it succeeds despite 568 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:13,920 Speaker 3: its players, not because of them. 569 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:17,359 Speaker 1: That big blood that's a big space balls the flamethrower 570 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:22,200 Speaker 1: blowtorch that Nefisa Collier pulled out on Kathy Engelbert. Okay, now, 571 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 1: a couple of things. First of all, incredibly gutsy to 572 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,199 Speaker 1: do this. I'm gonna come out and say this. I 573 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:30,680 Speaker 1: know everybody is on the same page, but we're sick 574 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:34,639 Speaker 1: of of our leadership not taking us in the right direction. 575 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 1: And then the stories that she told about Kathy Engelbert 576 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 1: with this is what she said about Caitlin Clark, that 577 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 1: she should be thanking everybody. Caitlyn Clark, by the way, 578 00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 1: I think she had a thirty million dollar deal with 579 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 1: Nike before she played one minute of the WNBA. One minute, 580 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 1: one minute, you know, so you know it's not like 581 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 1: she'd a WNBA to get thirty million dollars. 582 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 6: So uh. 583 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:58,239 Speaker 1: And that is still in anticipation, of course, yes, But 584 00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 1: the big point here is that and again, this is 585 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 1: what NAFISA cot to be fair, this is what Nefisa 586 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 1: Collier is saying. Kathy Engelbert told her right now, and 587 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: we're waiting for whatever comeback there's going to be. But 588 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:18,160 Speaker 1: it's irrelevant because this is the players saying we have 589 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:22,920 Speaker 1: no confidence in our leadership. And the WNBA is just 590 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 1: the right size for the players to pull a big 591 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 1: power play here and get what they want, which is 592 00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:32,200 Speaker 1: more better leadership. And I've told her from the beginning. 593 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:34,480 Speaker 1: What's been the problem. The WNBA is going to face 594 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 1: being able to handle success, and they get They get 595 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 1: handed Caitlin Clark, they get handed Angel Reese, they get 596 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 1: handed Page Beckers. And still while they have incredible success, 597 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 1: there's the bad storylines. The officiating is bad. The players 598 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 1: are unhappy. The players are unhappy in a league that 599 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 1: has had unquestioned and an unmatched growth in the last 600 00:29:56,120 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 1: eighteen months. She's gone. Kathy Engelbert is gone. Whether it's 601 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 1: whether it's a votive, whether it's a vote to get 602 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 1: her out, or she says I'm sorry the players feel 603 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 1: this way, There's gonna be pressure on her because this 604 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 1: is how the players feel and the players are the league. Now, 605 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 1: would this work in the NBA and the NFL. Probably not. 606 00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 1: Those leagues are too big to say, hey, we're upset 607 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 1: with our leader, but everybody's making money. We're not gonna 608 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 1: vote out Roger Goodell. We're not gonna vote out Rob Manfred. Look, 609 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 1: the players, they all hate Rob Manford to a person, 610 00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 1: but he's still the commissioner. He's got too much sway. 611 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 1: There's no way Kathy Engelbert has the sway of the 612 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:33,760 Speaker 1: teams and the front offices and the owners. When the 613 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 1: players here, who are incredibly powerful, show you that we 614 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 1: have no confidence in our leadership. A change has to 615 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 1: be made because we just watched the last eighteen months. 616 00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 1: They're the game that couldn't shoot straight. It's like, why 617 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 1: are we doing Why aren't we just celebrating the WNBA 618 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:51,480 Speaker 1: and talking about stuff on the court with Caitlyn and Angels. No, 619 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 1: they can't find a way around it. And Kathy Engelbert, 620 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 1: right or wrong is the commissioner. She will be gone 621 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 1: before the WNBA plays their next game and there will 622 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 1: be a new, bigger, higher profile basketball person in place 623 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 1: to help take the WNBA to their next level. Because 624 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 1: the players nobody wants this. They all want out, and 625 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 1: they decided we are going to take our empowerment and 626 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,320 Speaker 1: we're going to do this, and she's going to be gone. 627 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 2: My favorite of all the responses, and plenty of current 628 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 2: and former w NBA superstars have taken their turn on 629 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 2: social media to respond to this. Elena and Deladon, two 630 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:31,760 Speaker 2: time MVP post it on our Instagram story quote, it's 631 00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 2: the care for the human part of me. I'm not sure. 632 00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:37,360 Speaker 2: I'm still not sure if Kathy knows I retired. I 633 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:38,640 Speaker 2: heard everyone but her. 634 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 1: Wow, no notes, Angel Reese, that was my favorite. That 635 00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:47,120 Speaker 1: was my favorite. Ten to ten not notes, I have 636 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 1: no notes. Note I put it up on no notes notes. 637 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 1: I have no notes for that. 638 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 2: This was a perfect takedown in four minutes, all the 639 00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 2: way through Lexi Hall, I think I agree with everything 640 00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:00,600 Speaker 2: she said. And you just go on the list of 641 00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 2: people that have chimed in WNBA response corporate lawyer stuff 642 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 2: as you would expect, right like no, no, no, I 643 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 2: didn't do that. I didn't say that, and that's not 644 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 2: how I feel, it's not right whatever that. If that's 645 00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 2: the consensus of your players and especially your stars seven 646 00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 2: year veteran and Collier who has a bit of work 647 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 2: with management right with what her husband does unrivaled and 648 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 2: all that other stuff, that there's some more conversations to 649 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,280 Speaker 2: be had. The vote of no confidence will be there 650 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:37,400 Speaker 2: because you're at a huge part of an intersection of 651 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:42,160 Speaker 2: your sport right now. And certainly I understand folks dismiscas 652 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,360 Speaker 2: like you know they should learn to shoot a layup whatever, No, no, 653 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 2: the on court product, there's still growth to be had there, right, 654 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 2: the excellence of execution we've all watched it. At times 655 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 2: it's difficult, but that doesn't mean that you're still not 656 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 2: in a place for the league to make moves with 657 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:04,640 Speaker 2: regard to a fiating, retraining, re education, protecting your players, 658 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 2: all of those things.

Madison Bumgardner was never even top 688 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:38,880 Speaker 4: three in voting for a cy Young Award in his career. 689 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,240 Speaker 4: Blake Snell has won a cy Young in each league 690 00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 4: at this point, and tonight five and a third, he's 691 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:48,400 Speaker 4: allowed just one hit, eight strikeouts, one walk against the 692 00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 4: Reds six nothing LA. It's now two outs in the 693 00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 4: top of the six. This is Game one of the 694 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:56,840 Speaker 4: best of three. Hunter Green, LA Native was the starter 695 00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:59,880 Speaker 4: for Cincinnati. He lasted three innings, three home runs a lo, 696 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 4: including a leadoff shot to right field by sho hey 697 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:07,040 Speaker 4: O tani Well. The Cubs beat San Diego at Windy 698 00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 4: Wrigley Field three to one. The wind was blowing in 699 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 4: and the Cubs still hit back to back homers in 700 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 4: the fifth a A. S.

This was the 706 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:33,239 Speaker 4: first time that Chapman had allowed three hits in an 707 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:37,240 Speaker 4: inning this season, and stunningly, stat Sink says the Yankees 708 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:40,239 Speaker 4: tonight are the first team in the history of the 709 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:44,200 Speaker 4: postseason to have bases loaded, nobody out bottom of the ninth, 710 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,640 Speaker 4: not score a run and lose the game.

I'm glad they gave him 893 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:10,239 Speaker 1: the ball for Game one and now looks like he'll 894 00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:13,719 Speaker 1: be ready for the next round as well, as long 895 00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 1: as the Dodgers, you know, take care of business here 896 00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:17,040 Speaker 1: in the next game against the Reds. Yeah. 897 00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:19,719 Speaker 2: Look at the last five starts, you include this one. 898 00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:23,080 Speaker 2: He had in a rough go against the Pirates going 899 00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:26,040 Speaker 2: back to the being in September five innings and five 900 00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:29,880 Speaker 2: ear in runs, but since then, six scoreless innings against 901 00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 2: the Rockies, seven scoreless against the Phillies, one run in 902 00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:38,120 Speaker 2: six against the Diamondbacks, and then a game you look 903 00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:41,279 Speaker 2: at this game against the Reds goes seven, so I mean, 904 00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:44,759 Speaker 2: it's just been a fantastic run for him as they 905 00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:47,440 Speaker 2: look to close it out, only another six outs. 906 00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:50,360 Speaker 1: That's it. Six to go well and more in this 907 00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:52,919 Speaker 1: game coming up again, we have the big, big first 908 00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:55,040 Speaker 1: day in Major league bas Mary r left because she 909 00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:59,480 Speaker 1: knew it was over, but big news in the NFL 910 00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 1: m A quarterback change is here. Yeah, And I feel 911 00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:07,399 Speaker 1: good because I feel like I feel like the bad 912 00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:09,600 Speaker 1: guy in the movie. Like you know in movies when 913 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:17,239 Speaker 1: when things always go like Vincent Price, Yeah, no, I 914 00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:20,480 Speaker 1: feel like you're you're almost in the rain there too, 915 00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:22,719 Speaker 1: like you're you're something like you're not high enough in 916 00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:27,759 Speaker 1: the register. But you got the same cadence in the 917 00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:31,200 Speaker 1: movies where the bad guy wins a lot in the beginning, 918 00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:33,839 Speaker 1: right like the bag went like, Okay, he wins a lot, man, 919 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:36,879 Speaker 1: he wins a lot, and he walks around saying, yeah, 920 00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:41,000 Speaker 1: so far my evil plan is going according to every 921 00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:44,000 Speaker 1: single detail I had out there, right think, like like 922 00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:47,680 Speaker 1: Timothy Oliphant in the Die Hard was a Diehard five, 923 00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:49,880 Speaker 1: die Hard four, which is the Diehard he was in 924 00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:55,040 Speaker 1: Good Question Diard four, the one where I conflate them, 925 00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:57,160 Speaker 1: but justin Long. Yeah, but that was a good one though. 926 00:45:57,239 --> 00:46:00,560 Speaker 1: That was Maggie Q was That was a good long 927 00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:03,080 Speaker 1: started showing up in schlocky horror. No, no, no, no, 928 00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:06,040 Speaker 1: he did Jeepers, Creepers, and then he did this. No 929 00:46:06,160 --> 00:46:08,880 Speaker 1: it's not okay. So Diehard one, Diehard two was Dulles. 930 00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:12,239 Speaker 1: Diard three with Sam Jackson was die Hard for the 931 00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:15,120 Speaker 1: one with die Hard. Yeah, that's it, right, we had 932 00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:19,000 Speaker 1: it had four, okay, Diehard four Diary this way because 933 00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:21,960 Speaker 1: two thousand and seven. Yeah, yeah, yeah, everything going according 934 00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:23,800 Speaker 1: to plan for Timothy Olafive, right and we got it. 935 00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:26,399 Speaker 1: We're all going good, right near Cliff Curtis gets involved, like, yeah, 936 00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:29,160 Speaker 1: everything's going great. I feel that way right now with 937 00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:33,320 Speaker 1: my Browns will start five guys at quarterback this season 938 00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:39,320 Speaker 1: bold prediction I gave you in the preseason because Dylan Gabriel. 939 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:43,320 Speaker 1: According to many sources, we'll start at quarterback for the 940 00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:50,200 Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns this week, replacing Joe Flacco. Now this game 941 00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:53,160 Speaker 1: is not in the United States, so okay, well, we're 942 00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:56,600 Speaker 1: gonna do this. We're gonna do it outside the United States. Yeah, 943 00:46:56,600 --> 00:47:02,240 Speaker 1: we're doing outside the door again. Shadure is next, Shoudoor 944 00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:05,000 Speaker 1: will be next. But Dylan Gabriel is here. And as 945 00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:08,720 Speaker 1: I told you, hey, Flaco, the first three or four games, 946 00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:11,040 Speaker 1: they started out oh and three to zero to four. 947 00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:13,320 Speaker 1: Then they make the change the next quarterback. Now I 948 00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:15,320 Speaker 1: did say it first was gonna be Kenny Pickett, but 949 00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:17,359 Speaker 1: then they traded Kenny Pickets. I said, okay, everybody then 950 00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:20,279 Speaker 1: moves up one. So with Kenny Pickett gone, Gabriel moves 951 00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:21,960 Speaker 1: up to be the next guy. Then after that'll be 952 00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:24,239 Speaker 1: Shador Sanders, and then it's gonna be whoever they wind 953 00:47:24,360 --> 00:47:26,239 Speaker 1: up bringing back off their roster at some point, you know, 954 00:47:26,320 --> 00:47:29,400 Speaker 1: fourth and fifth, the Als, five guys. Everything is according 955 00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:31,760 Speaker 1: going go according to plan, Mike Harmon, I got Flaco 956 00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:34,520 Speaker 1: through the first month. I said October first, it's gonna 957 00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:37,200 Speaker 1: be Dylan Gabriel. And here comes Dylan Gabriel to start 958 00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:37,760 Speaker 1: for the Browns. 959 00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:40,839 Speaker 2: I'd be curious if they'd actually won that game. Going 960 00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:44,840 Speaker 2: back to the opener, you know with the kickers against 961 00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:46,680 Speaker 2: the Bengals, if they were two and two, would they 962 00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:49,080 Speaker 2: be making the change yes, they've gotten thumped twice. 963 00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:50,080 Speaker 1: Yes, yes they have. 964 00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:54,080 Speaker 2: They've gotten worked pretty hard two of those games, one 965 00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:57,520 Speaker 2: of which was also a lot on the offense and 966 00:47:57,640 --> 00:48:01,960 Speaker 2: their failures and down stants, et cetera. But they got 967 00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:06,799 Speaker 2: absolutely run over by Detroit this week. And it really 968 00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:09,200 Speaker 2: wasn't even David Montgomery who would normally be doing the 969 00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:12,960 Speaker 2: running over more and more Jamiir Gibbs and the excellence 970 00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:16,000 Speaker 2: of execution. So you make the change here. Look, a 971 00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:18,759 Speaker 2: lot of Shador Sanders talk over the course of the week, 972 00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:23,000 Speaker 2: Pop said and chimed in about the draft and everything. 973 00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:26,400 Speaker 2: So that's swirling, and then Shador saying he's better than 974 00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:29,080 Speaker 2: a lot of quarterbacks. You might as well just put it. 975 00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:31,680 Speaker 2: Put Joe Flacco's name out of his mouth at that point. 976 00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:33,479 Speaker 2: Oh sure, I'm better than that guy. 977 00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:36,520 Speaker 1: Yeah. Now it's old and he's running scared. He can't 978 00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:39,680 Speaker 1: do anymore. He was once elite. Now he's just a guy. 979 00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:42,480 Speaker 1: So yeah for Dylan Gabriel, like, they'll run him as 980 00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:46,279 Speaker 1: long as it looks moderately efficient, Like there's no there's 981 00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:49,880 Speaker 1: no rush to the lineup. No, no, because now that 982 00:48:49,960 --> 00:48:52,440 Speaker 1: they made the change, the two guys you have to 983 00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:54,799 Speaker 1: see this year. Now at this point you would think 984 00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:57,040 Speaker 1: and if you don't, you know that they they you 985 00:48:57,120 --> 00:48:59,759 Speaker 1: can get to conspiracy theory that the Browns took him 986 00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:01,439 Speaker 1: in the fit round just a benchim so we didn't 987 00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:04,200 Speaker 1: play the only two guys you really have to see. 988 00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:05,840 Speaker 1: Now you gotta see Gabriel for a few weeks, and 989 00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:07,480 Speaker 1: you got to see you do a I gotta say 990 00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 1: that's that he's he's really got to be coached up 991 00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:12,319 Speaker 1: this week. And I'm talking about Sudor Sanders because it's 992 00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:16,720 Speaker 1: a Brian Flora's defense coming at you overseas. So Dylan 993 00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:18,919 Speaker 1: Gabriel is gonna see some things he's never seen before. 994 00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:21,040 Speaker 1: And that guy's played a lot of football. So on 995 00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:25,200 Speaker 1: this report, Yahoo, ESPN Cleveland, Mary kay Cabot, longtime Brown's insider. 996 00:49:25,600 --> 00:49:29,799 Speaker 1: Now here's the thing you mean the comedian, Uh yeah, yeah, 997 00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:33,200 Speaker 1: the comedian. Uh. She's gonna be hosting the Emmys next year. 998 00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:38,440 Speaker 1: Gabriel be the quarterback however long he is the quarterback, 999 00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:43,720 Speaker 1: as you said, Joe Flacco has done. Unless something happens 1000 00:49:43,840 --> 00:49:47,239 Speaker 1: to guys that they're going to play at some point 1001 00:49:47,320 --> 00:49:49,080 Speaker 1: in the next few weeks, because like I said, you 1002 00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:52,720 Speaker 1: have to see Dylan Gabriel. You have to see Shodor Sanders. 1003 00:49:53,320 --> 00:49:56,239 Speaker 1: I don't think you can say, Okay, here's Gabriel if 1004 00:49:56,280 --> 00:49:59,080 Speaker 1: he's not if he's not any good, we'll go back 1005 00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:01,920 Speaker 1: to Joe flaccoat They need to see Shador Standers. And 1006 00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:03,520 Speaker 1: why wouldn't you right at this point, this is the 1007 00:50:03,560 --> 00:50:05,680 Speaker 1: season you're in, right, I mean, I told you should 1008 00:50:05,680 --> 00:50:08,120 Speaker 1: have traded for a quarterback. Your defense is good enough, 1009 00:50:08,320 --> 00:50:09,880 Speaker 1: go out and get a quarterback. But this is the 1010 00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:12,239 Speaker 1: way they want to go. Whatever they're tanking for for 1011 00:50:12,400 --> 00:50:15,360 Speaker 1: next year, but it needs to be Gabriel for And 1012 00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:17,920 Speaker 1: if Gabriel's great, okay, keeps the job right, it keeps 1013 00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:20,400 Speaker 1: all of But if Gabriel falters, you kind of have 1014 00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:22,200 Speaker 1: to go to Shador Sanders or there will be a 1015 00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:25,040 Speaker 1: revolt by Browns fans. And you need to see him 1016 00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:26,840 Speaker 1: at least a little bit to know that, Okay, this 1017 00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:30,040 Speaker 1: guy we took. You understood drafting him. You were gonna 1018 00:50:30,080 --> 00:50:32,000 Speaker 1: have to play him at some point if they don't 1019 00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:34,719 Speaker 1: play him again. I can get on board with that 1020 00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:37,920 Speaker 1: conspiracy theory of hey, the NFL doesn't want you door 1021 00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:40,000 Speaker 1: Sanders to play. They don't like him. They don't like Dion. 1022 00:50:40,239 --> 00:50:41,960 Speaker 1: So the Browns took him as a favor and they're 1023 00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:44,000 Speaker 1: gonna bury him on the death chart. But I gotta 1024 00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:46,799 Speaker 1: think the brown I mean, the Browns are gonna try 1025 00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:48,399 Speaker 1: to do whatever they can just out the last place. 1026 00:50:48,560 --> 00:50:53,240 Speaker 1: But knowing that this is this is your situation, Gabriel, 1027 00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:55,719 Speaker 1: I'm sure is gonna get at least five weeks, right. 1028 00:50:55,760 --> 00:50:57,640 Speaker 1: I'm sure he's gonna get to at least just past 1029 00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:00,279 Speaker 1: the midway part of the season. Even if he's not good. 1030 00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:03,719 Speaker 1: Things have to get really really desperate, really really bad 1031 00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:08,000 Speaker 1: where the Browns are non competitive to get to Shador Sanders. 1032 00:51:08,320 --> 00:51:11,279 Speaker 1: But I also don't see Dylan Gabriel having that kind 1033 00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:12,920 Speaker 1: of an impact where all of a sudden he's got 1034 00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:14,360 Speaker 1: to keep the job all the way through the end 1035 00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:17,439 Speaker 1: of the season. So yeah, I feel better than ever 1036 00:51:17,880 --> 00:51:21,080 Speaker 1: that it's gonna go Gabriel to Shador Sanders. And then 1037 00:51:21,120 --> 00:51:23,160 Speaker 1: where do you go, right, because are you dalking a 1038 00:51:23,239 --> 00:51:25,719 Speaker 1: mystery quarterback? Brown's gonna give him that job or well 1039 00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:28,120 Speaker 1: they go back to somebody else again. My five guys 1040 00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:30,800 Speaker 1: prediction looks pretty good right now, but it's gotta go 1041 00:51:30,960 --> 00:51:34,800 Speaker 1: Gabriel to Chador at some point midway part of the season. 1042 00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:37,720 Speaker 2: Curiosity, right go back to the offseason when Miles Garrett 1043 00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:39,560 Speaker 2: was I want to be traded, and then they paid 1044 00:51:39,600 --> 00:51:40,239 Speaker 2: him a lot of money. 1045 00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:43,480 Speaker 1: We're gonna win a super Bowl. Okay, cool? How does 1046 00:51:43,520 --> 00:51:47,840 Speaker 1: he feel now? After four weeks you go to the rookies. 1047 00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:51,560 Speaker 1: Now Joe Flacco's off to the side for the moment, 1048 00:51:52,200 --> 00:51:56,000 Speaker 1: and you're sitting here at one in three. He gave 1049 00:51:56,080 --> 00:51:59,320 Speaker 1: away a game back in week one against the division rival, 1050 00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:02,560 Speaker 1: and now you're just playing out the string after four weeks. 1051 00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:07,920 Speaker 1: That's kind of where you're at at this point already. Well, 1052 00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:09,400 Speaker 1: this is where you can come back with that. But 1053 00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:10,680 Speaker 1: I'm rich as blank, you know. 1054 00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:15,160 Speaker 2: But you got Minnesota Pittsburgh, then you got Miami, New 1055 00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:18,160 Speaker 2: England bye week before they're on the road at the Jets. 1056 00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:21,600 Speaker 2: But all of that to say, the offense, you got 1057 00:52:21,640 --> 00:52:24,440 Speaker 2: a pretty good running back in Judkins. He's looked pretty 1058 00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:27,680 Speaker 2: good since he's joined the squads. So perhaps you can 1059 00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:29,920 Speaker 2: get into a little bit of a play action scenario 1060 00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:33,000 Speaker 2: and find you just lost Tilman for a couple of weeks, 1061 00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:35,520 Speaker 2: so that certainly doesn't help your receiving corps. But you 1062 00:52:35,600 --> 00:52:37,800 Speaker 2: got a couple of tight ends on the roster. You 1063 00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:40,600 Speaker 2: look at Jerry Judy, perhaps you can start pulling the 1064 00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:44,000 Speaker 2: strings a little bit, get to a timing offense that 1065 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:48,879 Speaker 2: that works a bit, But it's it's just for your 1066 00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:53,279 Speaker 2: point and to tie to the Miles Garrett the preseason, like, 1067 00:52:53,600 --> 00:52:56,560 Speaker 2: all right, have we already thrown the towel on this? 1068 00:52:56,920 --> 00:53:00,359 Speaker 2: Because for Shudor Sanders, I can only go so far 1069 00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:03,440 Speaker 2: with the conspiracy theory. Part of it is he just 1070 00:53:03,719 --> 00:53:05,440 Speaker 2: may not be a guy that's showing you what you 1071 00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:10,200 Speaker 2: need at practices because you're gonna throw him out just beah. 1072 00:53:10,239 --> 00:53:12,040 Speaker 1: But but but that's the thing about a quarterback. You 1073 00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:15,279 Speaker 1: don't really know until you see him play. And if 1074 00:53:15,360 --> 00:53:18,400 Speaker 1: you're one to ten, you're gonna go to him, right, 1075 00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:20,040 Speaker 1: You got to, because what if he's great all of 1076 00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:22,399 Speaker 1: a sudden, whoa, he said, You don't know. I get 1077 00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:24,759 Speaker 1: that he delivers the ball a little late. I get 1078 00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:26,680 Speaker 1: that he's not quite there. But you really don't know 1079 00:53:26,719 --> 00:53:28,759 Speaker 1: about a quarterback until you see him on the field 1080 00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:33,120 Speaker 1: the honest moment. With the teammates that are working with him, 1081 00:53:33,120 --> 00:53:35,080 Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, but I think there's some team. I 1082 00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:37,120 Speaker 1: think there's he's probably got some some people on the 1083 00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:39,600 Speaker 1: team that want to see him curiosit, Let's say, hey, sure, 1084 00:53:39,760 --> 00:53:42,160 Speaker 1: not not right now, but at some point this season 1085 00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:44,439 Speaker 1: he has to start a game. I'm when Dion said, 1086 00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:47,160 Speaker 1: all all start to get yeah, I mean again, five quarterback, 1087 00:53:47,560 --> 00:53:50,560 Speaker 1: five guys. Yeah, I've gotten exactly he's gonna start, and 1088 00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:54,120 Speaker 1: he really has to because after this year, you're gonna 1089 00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:56,759 Speaker 1: turn the page on this quarterback situation. Likely you're gonna 1090 00:53:56,800 --> 00:54:01,040 Speaker 1: draft Lenora Sellers, You're gonna draft Carson, You're gonna draft 1091 00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:06,440 Speaker 1: Arch Manning, You're gonna draft somebody right right, Well, you 1092 00:54:06,520 --> 00:54:08,279 Speaker 1: never know. I mean, he may be great the last 1093 00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:10,320 Speaker 1: six weeks and say I want to be done, but 1094 00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:13,280 Speaker 1: you're gonna get another quarterback, right you did this whatever 1095 00:54:13,360 --> 00:54:15,560 Speaker 1: you did in the draft this year, which was ridiculous, 1096 00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:19,040 Speaker 1: but you're gonna move on. You need to see Chador 1097 00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:21,279 Speaker 1: Sanders go okay. Is everybody good? Everybody good? So we 1098 00:54:21,320 --> 00:54:23,720 Speaker 1: can move on. Because outside of that, then he hangs 1099 00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:26,239 Speaker 1: over the franchise of why did we draft this guy? 1100 00:54:26,560 --> 00:54:29,439 Speaker 1: With all the talent everything going on. There's no there's 1101 00:54:29,520 --> 00:54:31,919 Speaker 1: no reason why we drafted him in the fifth round 1102 00:54:32,280 --> 00:54:34,640 Speaker 1: unless we thought he was going to play right, There 1103 00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:36,319 Speaker 1: was no reason to draft him at that point because 1104 00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:39,000 Speaker 1: you had your court right, you had Flakop drafted Dylan 1105 00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:41,040 Speaker 1: Gabral the third round. Obviously, drafting a guy in the 1106 00:54:41,080 --> 00:54:43,000 Speaker 1: third round you think maybe he can start at some point, 1107 00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:44,320 Speaker 1: But then why do you draft a guy in the 1108 00:54:44,320 --> 00:54:46,480 Speaker 1: fifth round unless you think at some point he can 1109 00:54:46,520 --> 00:54:48,960 Speaker 1: start for us? And you again, a quarterback, you just 1110 00:54:49,080 --> 00:54:50,840 Speaker 1: never know until they get out on the field. You 1111 00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:54,720 Speaker 1: have no ideaok So he's gonna play at some pointment 1112 00:54:54,920 --> 00:54:57,840 Speaker 1: we're gonna get multiple starts from Shador Sanders at some 1113 00:54:57,960 --> 00:54:59,719 Speaker 1: point this season. It's just not gonna be for a 1114 00:54:59,719 --> 00:55:02,439 Speaker 1: little because clearly Dylan Gabriel will get a lot of run, 1115 00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:04,239 Speaker 1: He'll get a lot of a lot of chances to 1116 00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:05,920 Speaker 1: show if he can do it, can't do it, Like 1117 00:55:06,400 --> 00:55:09,279 Speaker 1: this is not gonna be immediate unless something happens to 1118 00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:12,000 Speaker 1: Dylan Gabriel. Uh, and then said, maybe they go back 1119 00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:13,719 Speaker 1: to Flacco in the short term and then it's shed 1120 00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:16,560 Speaker 1: door standers. But if Dylan Gabriel is healthy and playing, 1121 00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:19,759 Speaker 1: he's gonna get a while. Like this Sanders thing is like, Okay, 1122 00:55:19,840 --> 00:55:21,800 Speaker 1: he moves up next, but it's still gonna be a 1123 00:55:21,840 --> 00:55:23,160 Speaker 1: few weeks before it happens. 1124 00:55:22,880 --> 00:55:25,240 Speaker 2: Week five of the NFL season. That's the most Cleveland 1125 00:55:25,280 --> 00:55:25,799 Speaker 2: Browns talk. 1126 00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:29,000 Speaker 1: You're gonna get here, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, 1127 00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:33,120 Speaker 1: well maybe minutes. Fun guys, man, five guys are gonna start. 1128 00:55:33,239 --> 00:55:36,640 Speaker 1: No read It's right, I said Flacco till October. Flacco 1129 00:55:36,719 --> 00:55:41,319 Speaker 1: did even make it to October. October's tomorrow. He didn't 1130 00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:43,359 Speaker 1: even make it to tomorrow, and even get through out 1131 00:55:43,360 --> 00:55:44,160 Speaker 1: of technicality. 1132 00:55:44,320 --> 00:55:44,640 Speaker 4: I made it. 1133 00:55:44,719 --> 00:55:46,319 Speaker 1: I made it by a day and a whole day 1134 00:55:46,360 --> 00:55:49,800 Speaker 1: to sdamn aftare on this all right? August First, what 1135 00:55:49,880 --> 00:55:52,399 Speaker 1: are we doing? Hey there? He is, okay, great, We're 1136 00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:54,799 Speaker 1: good to go. We got we got Dylan Gabriel in there. 1137 00:55:54,880 --> 00:55:57,919 Speaker 1: What a mess? Yeah, I mean really uh and good 1138 00:55:58,000 --> 00:56:00,520 Speaker 1: luck right because you just you know, you saw it. 1139 00:56:00,600 --> 00:56:02,960 Speaker 1: The Vikings defense did a couple of weeks ago to 1140 00:56:05,840 --> 00:56:07,839 Speaker 1: to a quarterback who hadn't played in a while. We're 1141 00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:11,680 Speaker 1: gonna throw him in there. Good luck, good luck. 1142 00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:14,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he's helped by the fact that the 1143 00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:18,040 Speaker 2: Cleveland defense should be able to give him decent field 1144 00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:20,600 Speaker 2: position a bit, because you've got a lot of injuries 1145 00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:22,120 Speaker 2: going on in Minnesota as well. 1146 00:56:22,239 --> 00:56:24,600 Speaker 1: Do you think in fantasy right now, I could trade 1147 00:56:24,600 --> 00:56:27,160 Speaker 1: the Vikings defense for Josh Allen. Do you think there's 1148 00:56:28,040 --> 00:56:29,960 Speaker 1: do you think you're gonna get more points than me 1149 00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:32,520 Speaker 1: than I am with Josh Allen? I gotta I gotta 1150 00:56:32,560 --> 00:56:36,680 Speaker 1: look up with the projections this week, the Vikings defense 1151 00:56:36,719 --> 00:56:39,080 Speaker 1: may be projected to have more points than anybody in 1152 00:56:39,120 --> 00:56:42,759 Speaker 1: the NFL. That could be the case. We're gonna take 1153 00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:45,120 Speaker 1: a look at that, Oh, Tim, how to find out 1154 00:56:45,160 --> 00:56:47,520 Speaker 1: what's trending in the wide Worldeah, the the top defense 1155 00:56:47,600 --> 00:56:53,080 Speaker 1: on the butter, the top player over the projections. Let's 1156 00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:55,800 Speaker 1: find out what's trending from special delivery Steve de Saeger, 1157 00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:57,040 Speaker 1: Steve O, what do you got for us? 1158 00:56:57,120 --> 00:56:58,839 Speaker 4: Well, it's a good thing the Dodgers have a large 1159 00:56:58,920 --> 00:57:02,000 Speaker 4: league because now the bullpen is in play. It's Dodgers 1160 00:57:02,080 --> 00:57:05,160 Speaker 4: ten to two over the Cincinnati Reds and their wildcard opener, 1161 00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:08,239 Speaker 4: top of the eighth inning, one out, bases loaded for 1162 00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:11,919 Speaker 4: the Reds. A superb start for LA's Blake Snell, nine 1163 00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:15,600 Speaker 4: strikeouts in seven innings, ninety one pitches thrown. Show Hey 1164 00:57:15,640 --> 00:57:19,240 Speaker 4: Otani with two home runs, including a leadoff shot tonight. 1165 00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:21,160 Speaker 1: And that was a shot. 1166 00:57:21,400 --> 00:57:23,720 Speaker 4: They've had stat cast for how many miles an hour 1167 00:57:23,840 --> 00:57:26,320 Speaker 4: off the bat for the past decade. This is by 1168 00:57:26,440 --> 00:57:29,480 Speaker 4: far the hardest hit home run off a one hundred 1169 00:57:29,600 --> 00:57:32,720 Speaker 4: mile an hour pitch that anybody's had in the last decade. 1170 00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:35,920 Speaker 4: Previous hearted hardest hit off that kind of pitch was 1171 00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:38,840 Speaker 4: one hundred and thirteen point seven miles an hour. Tonight, 1172 00:57:38,960 --> 00:57:44,520 Speaker 4: Otani won seventeen point seven miles an hour the Dodger bullpen. 1173 00:57:45,440 --> 00:57:46,160 Speaker 1: Wow, not good. 1174 00:57:46,240 --> 00:57:48,440 Speaker 4: This was the perfect spot for ten Or Scott, was 1175 00:57:48,480 --> 00:57:51,640 Speaker 4: it not. Instead they bring in Alex Fassia twenty two pitches, 1176 00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:56,040 Speaker 4: one out, no, and now they're bringing in Edgardo Enriquez. 1177 00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:59,640 Speaker 4: See if they can finish up there. Yoshinobu Yamamoto the 1178 00:57:59,760 --> 00:58:02,960 Speaker 4: LA starter for Game two against Zach Lttel. If a 1179 00:58:03,040 --> 00:58:06,040 Speaker 4: game three is necessary on Thursday, sho hey O Tani 1180 00:58:06,120 --> 00:58:08,400 Speaker 4: could start. The Cubs are up one game to none 1181 00:58:08,440 --> 00:58:10,800 Speaker 4: and the best of three after beating the Padres three 1182 00:58:10,800 --> 00:58:12,960 Speaker 4: to one. The lost in Nick Pavetta, who did have 1183 00:58:13,120 --> 00:58:15,920 Speaker 4: nine strikeouts in five innings, but the Cubs hit back 1184 00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:18,680 Speaker 4: to back homers in the fifth from Seya Suzuki and 1185 00:58:18,840 --> 00:58:22,720 Speaker 4: Carson Kelly, hitting into the wind at Wrigley. Suzuki has 1186 00:58:22,760 --> 00:58:26,160 Speaker 4: homered in five straight games. Now The Padres offense got 1187 00:58:26,240 --> 00:58:28,760 Speaker 4: back to back doubles in the second inning, then went 1188 00:58:28,800 --> 00:58:31,640 Speaker 4: two for twenty five the rest of the game. Boston 1189 00:58:31,680 --> 00:58:34,360 Speaker 4: beat the Yankees three to one in New York Tonight, 1190 00:58:34,440 --> 00:58:36,240 Speaker 4: the Red Sox took the lead in the seventh on 1191 00:58:36,360 --> 00:58:40,040 Speaker 4: a two run pinch single by Masatake Yoshida. More on 1192 00:58:40,200 --> 00:58:42,720 Speaker 4: him in a moment. Garrett Crochet the star on the mound, 1193 00:58:42,760 --> 00:58:46,480 Speaker 4: eleven strikeouts, no walks in his seven and two third innings. 1194 00:58:46,840 --> 00:58:50,360 Speaker 4: He threw one hundred and seventeen pitches, the last guy 1195 00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:53,160 Speaker 4: in the postseason to throw one seventeen or more with 1196 00:58:53,240 --> 00:58:57,600 Speaker 4: Steven Strasburg in twenty nineteen. The last Red Sox pitch. 1197 00:58:57,640 --> 00:58:59,160 Speaker 4: I think that was the last pitch he threw in 1198 00:58:59,240 --> 00:59:01,600 Speaker 4: his career yet, and he was done and his arm 1199 00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:04,520 Speaker 4: fell off. The last Red Sox pitcher to throw more 1200 00:59:04,600 --> 00:59:07,440 Speaker 4: than that in the postseason Pedro Martinez in the ill 1201 00:59:07,520 --> 00:59:11,680 Speaker 4: fated Game seven against the Yankees over twenty years ago. Well, 1202 00:59:11,720 --> 00:59:13,880 Speaker 4: the Red Sox in the regular season, when they were 1203 00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:16,880 Speaker 4: leading going to the eighth inning seventy one to four. 1204 00:59:17,400 --> 00:59:20,760 Speaker 4: They eventually closed this out. It was interesting the Yankees 1205 00:59:20,800 --> 00:59:22,919 Speaker 4: did that, bases loaded, no outs, bottom of the ninth 1206 00:59:22,920 --> 00:59:26,520 Speaker 4: against Eraaldus Chapman, but then he got strikeout, flyout, strikeout 1207 00:59:27,000 --> 00:59:29,440 Speaker 4: to end it, and Yoshida, as the pinch hitter, on 1208 00:59:29,600 --> 00:59:33,560 Speaker 4: the first pitch he ever sees in his MLB postseason career, 1209 00:59:34,040 --> 00:59:36,800 Speaker 4: he gets the go ahead team hit with his team 1210 00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:40,800 Speaker 4: having trailed. That's not happened before in Major League Baseball, 1211 00:59:40,960 --> 00:59:43,880 Speaker 4: and yet again we see the Yankees bullpen in action. 1212 00:59:44,080 --> 00:59:47,040 Speaker 4: Luke Weaver takes the loss, ruining a great start for 1213 00:59:47,200 --> 00:59:50,440 Speaker 4: Max Freed. Since July first, the Yankee bullpen has the 1214 00:59:50,520 --> 00:59:54,680 Speaker 4: worst ERA in the majors well over five. Detroit started 1215 00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:56,760 Speaker 4: the day with a two to one win at Cleveland. 1216 00:59:56,840 --> 01:00:00,480 Speaker 4: Detroit scored two unearned runs. Cleveland's offense I went four 1217 01:00:00,560 --> 01:00:04,160 Speaker 4: for thirty fifteen strikeouts, a lot of that by Trek Scoobl, 1218 01:00:04,200 --> 01:00:06,800 Speaker 4: the winning pitcher. Cleveland barely got the ball out of 1219 01:00:06,840 --> 01:00:10,840 Speaker 4: the infield. Angels manager Ron Washington will not return next season. 1220 01:00:11,240 --> 01:00:13,720 Speaker 4: The Halos are now looking for their sixth manager in 1221 01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:17,880 Speaker 4: the last nine years. Cardinals manager Olie marmaul will return. 1222 01:00:18,000 --> 01:00:20,800 Speaker 4: The sale of the Tampa Bay Rays was finalized. The 1223 01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:24,800 Speaker 4: Minnesota Wild sign left winger Careel Caprisov to a record 1224 01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:27,800 Speaker 4: eight year extension worth one hundred and thirty six million dollars, 1225 01:00:28,160 --> 01:00:31,360 Speaker 4: and we're about to decide who's going to the WNBA Finals. 1226 01:00:31,400 --> 01:00:34,560 Speaker 4: It's Game five of the best of five semis Indiana 1227 01:00:34,680 --> 01:00:38,240 Speaker 4: at Las Vegas, tied at eighty four under thirty seconds 1228 01:00:38,320 --> 01:00:40,800 Speaker 4: to go, and as you mentioned, Kelsey Mitchell of the 1229 01:00:40,880 --> 01:00:44,280 Speaker 4: Indiana Fever left with a kind of scary looking either 1230 01:00:44,360 --> 01:00:47,360 Speaker 4: knee or quad entry. She said no to the stretcher 1231 01:00:47,440 --> 01:00:50,320 Speaker 4: and was able to limp off with help. She's not 1232 01:00:50,560 --> 01:00:52,480 Speaker 4: returning tonight to say the lease back to you. 1233 01:00:53,000 --> 01:00:56,120 Speaker 1: Thank you, Steve.
