1
00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:22,880
Speaker 1: What's up, guys. Welcome back to another episode of the

Speaker 1: met Stub podcast, coming to you from the Foulator and

Speaker 1: Territory Network. And I do want to say I don't

4
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:29,960
Speaker 1: think this is an emergency episode, but this kind of

5
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:32,000
Speaker 1: an emergency episode because Mark and I just scheduled this

6
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:33,960
Speaker 1: in a bit of a panic. Me especially in a

7
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:36,680
Speaker 1: bit of a panic because Major League Baseball just announced

8
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,159
Speaker 1: that the Mets games on Wednesday and Thursday will be

9
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:42,200
Speaker 1: postponed and rescheduled as part of a straight double heather

10
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:45,159
Speaker 1: on Monday, the day before the Major League postseason is

11
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:47,559
Speaker 1: about to start. And I might rate about it. Mark

00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:49,520

24
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 2: reviews to at the end of this episode. We haven't

25
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:20,240
Speaker 2: done that a.

26
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 1: Couple definitely, but again we had to hop on them.

27
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 1: I mean, especially because I am just so absolutely irate

28
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 1: and raged by how this week was handled by the

29
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 1: braves a Major League Baseball but everybody involved. This is

30
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 1: not to be able to find a better word here,

31
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,760
Speaker 1: a clusterfuck and by all levels, top to bottom, head

32
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 1: to toe, such an unbelievable mishandling, such an unbelievable lack

33
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 1: of logic, unbelievable lack of planning, preparation, everything. The fact

34
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 1: that these two teams have their playoff lives possibly coming

35
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 1: down to a two game double Heather, We're about to

36
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 1: play eighteen innings and then one, if not both of

37
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 1: them will have to fly to a different part of

38
00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 1: the country the next day or that night after the

39
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 1: game to play a wildcard game, possibly the next afternoon,

40
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 1: because one of nationally wildcard games afternoon, one of thems

41
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: at night. It's it is such a botch, such a

42
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,600
Speaker 1: fuck up by the league and by the Braves. I'm so,

43
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,239
Speaker 1: so so mad about how this whole thing has been handled.

44
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, think about it like this, if those

45
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:17,960
Speaker 2: games on Monday do end up getting played, because there's

46
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:22,240
Speaker 2: a world where those games do not matter. Theoretically, those

47
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 2: games technic matter on Monday Monday. Technically, the Mets could

48
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 2: clinch in Milwaukee, the Braves could be knocked out, the

49
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 2: Diamondbacks could be in That could technically be a thing

50
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:33,519
Speaker 2: that happens. But imagine a world where the Mets play Milwaukee,

51
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,079
Speaker 2: fly to Atlanta, played the doubleheader, then have to fly

52
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 2: back to Milwaukee, and that all happens in a forty

53
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,839
Speaker 2: eight hour span, where they will be paying playing three

54
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 2: games in those forty eight hours and basically and then

55
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 2: they would be playing a fourth game in the next day,

56
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 2: and they surely would have to be the night game,

57
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:49,360
Speaker 2: but there's a chance that they would be the middle

58
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 2: of the day game because it's Milwaukee and it's not

59
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 2: a big market, and they play every Wildcard game during

60
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 2: the same day. So yeah, this is a complete catastrophe,

61
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 2: to say the least, a complete botch job. You're a

62
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:02,919
Speaker 2: little bit more passionate about it than me, just because

63
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 2: I'm a little bit numb. I'm like, whatever, this is

64
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 2: what we're gonna have to do. Now, go out win

65
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 2: the games. Like this sucks. But seeing that article that

66
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 2: Joel Sherman wrote about what exactly the Atlanta Braves did

67
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 2: to basically allow this to happen, it's a malpractice. It's terrible,

68
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 2: it's awful. And the fact that Major League Baseball did

69
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,639
Speaker 2: not step in and say, you know what, we gave

70
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 2: you the option to make this decision you declined it

71
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 2: too bad. Because major League Baseball does have the ultimate

72
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 2: decision making authority in this scenario. They can say, even

73
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,920
Speaker 2: though you don't want to do this, we're deciding for

74
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 2: the better of the teams, for the better of the sport,

75
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 2: for whatever the reason is. They can have the upper

76
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 2: hand here and make that final decision. So yes, as

77
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 2: bad as the Braves were with caring about their ticket

78
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 2: sales that we're coming through and caring about traffic, which

79
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 2: is why they have seven twenty starts. How fuck does

80
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 2: Atlanta have traffic? Who even goes to that awful city anyway?

81
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 2: It's a terrible place to live. It's ah it's hot

82
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 2: and humid, and they're getting hurricanes whatever, Hopefully everybody's safe.

83
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 2: Shout out that don't want anyone to be unsafe. But

84
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 2: in the same time, all the easy thing that the

85
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 2: Braves gave as to why they did not want to

86
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 2: move the game up a day play a doubleheader on

87
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 2: Tuesday is all the wrong reasons. And that almost makes

88
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 2: me feel okay, because you want to know why me,

89
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 2: mister focus on baseball for the organization on Twitter over here,

90
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 2: the Braves not focused on baseball. This organization is unseerious.

91
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 2: And this is the first time in a long time

92
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 2: it feels like the Braves have been on serious as

93
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 2: you almost just threw up your water. You're so excited,

94
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,240
Speaker 2: you're so worked up, you almost threw up your water

95
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 2: all over the screen. Again. You gotta get on YouTube

96
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:33,599
Speaker 2: to see that.

97
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 1: It was crazy, went down the wrong pipe there. But

98
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: that Joel Sherman Uggles what pissed me off the most

99
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: because reading that, and I have the excerpt to read

100
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 1: to you guys right now, really put into perspective how

101
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 1: fucked up the situation is and how easily this would

102
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,159
Speaker 1: have been to handle. So it's directly from Joel Sherman.

103
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 1: The New York posts came out middle day and Wednesday,

104
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:56,359
Speaker 1: September twenty fifth. Background conversations with involved personnel indicated that

105
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 1: basically the Braves were expecting large attendance for the three games.

106
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,039
Speaker 1: It was forty thousand people at Truce Park for Tuesday's

107
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 1: open or won by Atlanta, and did not want to

108
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,839
Speaker 1: forego the gates nor work through the logistics of moving

109
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 1: personnel such as security, concessionnaires, etc. To other dates and times.

110
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,039
Speaker 1: The Brave start their home game seven to twenty pm,

111
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 1: not earlier, for example, because there's a flow. This flow

112
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,479
Speaker 1: people getting out of the battery by traffick after work.

113
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 1: The two teams had a common off day Monday. The

114
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: weather was such that doubleheader could have been played Tuesday.

115
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,400
Speaker 1: The Mets pitched the idea of moving up the start

116
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 1: time Wednesday, before the forecast worst and in the most

117
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 1: dramatic move, the series could have been relocated to an

118
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 1: empty park. Now you threat the storm such as Texas

119
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 1: MLB did not force a change. The league had a

120
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,719
Speaker 1: much easier decision in moving the start time of Tuesday's

121
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,720
Speaker 1: Race Tigers game from six forty to one ten because

122
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,280
Speaker 1: both teams approved of the change. It helped that the

123
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 1: Rays are non contention. These two teams are not in

124
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,040
Speaker 1: the same division. The Mets and Braves are in the

125
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 1: nlast batting for a playoff spot with one possibly missing altogether,

126
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 1: and do not exactly have great love for each other. Thus,

127
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 1: the Mets have certainly wondered about gamesmanship here. Notably, that

128
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: would allow likely NLCI Young winner Chris Sale, coming off

129
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,719
Speaker 1: a game as which as fastball average fastball loss, he

130
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 1: dropped two miles an hour to have an extra day

131
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 1: of rest for starting Wednesday, and they could will be

132
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 1: in play the start in regular rest on Monday. That's

133
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,679
Speaker 1: the part here. This is the Braves, for the first

134
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: time in this rivaly, at least in recent history, you

135
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,280
Speaker 1: have realized have looked in the mirror and understood they

136
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: were the worst team. They needed to pull some bullshit

137
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:22,159
Speaker 1: to do this, even after winning the game in decisive

138
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: fashion on Tuesday night. So they wanted to try and

139
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 1: thread this needle of being able to play this game

140
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,839
Speaker 1: Wednesday night as scheduled, and then you can now have

141
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 1: Chris Sale come back on Monday, which we alluded to

142
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 1: in the episode Sunday, and we allude to the episode

143
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 1: we did the Braves guys yesterday to where that was

144
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 1: their perfect scenario. We have three game series against the Mets.

145
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,480
Speaker 1: We absolutely need to win two. We early won one,

146
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: and Chris Sale can start the next two games on

147
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:44,600
Speaker 1: an extra day of rest. After fastball loss, he went

148
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,799
Speaker 1: down again like tat tip to them for being bush

149
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 1: league gas holes. And that's what you want to do

150
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 1: if you want to make the playoffs when your roster

151
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 1: fucking sucks and half your team is injured. But wow,

152
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 1: and then to say that we wanted to keep the

153
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 1: gates and the revenue like you, guys, now you've now.

154
00:06:58,040 --> 00:06:59,359
Speaker 2: Just screwed both teams.

155
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 1: They Oh, that's another part of this, because again I

156
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 1: think the Braves internally like this is definitely now the year.

157
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 1: We've lost half of our roster, including probably the best

158
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 1: hit the best position player, third best position player, and

159
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 1: the best pitcher in baseball. So now we're like, all right,

160
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 1: it's house money anyway. The Mets around this magical run,

161
00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,200
Speaker 1: let's just fuck them because we hate them. And again,

162
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: these teams hate each other, and that's one of the

163
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: beautiful parts about baseball is that these rivalries form and

164
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 1: they build and they grow. But holy shit, the absolute

165
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 1: acid nine behavior from this team. Then again, mlban not

166
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 1: forcing it, but also I will be not forcing it

167
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,239
Speaker 1: because you can't force it if the home team's unwilling

168
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 1: to do anything about it. And it Braves clearly, based

169
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 1: on this Joel Sherman piece, we're completely unwilling to do

170
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 1: anything about it. And I say all this and im

171
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: this mad just at the incompetency of everything. Yeah, because

172
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 1: when you step back for a second, look honestly at

173
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 1: the situation, this is a net positive for the Mets.

174
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 1: Really is oh major positive. The way this is handled

175
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,320
Speaker 1: does help the Mets in their pursuit of the postseason.

176
00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 1: What happens after they possibly get the postseason birth doesn't

177
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 1: help the Mets at all, and that's why I'm frustrated more.

178
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: But to actually hit the number one goal of reach

179
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 1: the playoffs it unquestionably positive for the Mets.

180
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 2: You know, we were talking earlier today over text about

181
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 2: how the worst thing literally that could have happened was

182
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 2: play the game on Wednesday, play a game on Monday,

183
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,120
Speaker 2: because you're still doing the travel, you're still getting fucked

184
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 2: to the playoffs. Even if you do make it, and

185
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 2: you're gonna be facing Chris Sale twice, which is not

186
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 2: a recipe for success again, National leaguecit Young Award winner.

187
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 2: So for the actual Mets ability to make the postseason,

188
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 2: this is better. This is better than what would have

189
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 2: happened because we were never playing Thursday. The true thing

190
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:31,160
Speaker 2: would have been the series to go as planned Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday.

191
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 2: That would have been the best possible thing that could

192
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 2: have happened. You go into Milwaukee knowing exactly what you

193
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 2: need to do. But because that was never going to

194
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 2: be on the table because a hurricane was a Helene Helen,

195
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 2: I don't know exactly what the name is, but because

196
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,760
Speaker 2: of the hurricane that is going through the weirdest area ever.

197
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,319
Speaker 2: I feel like hurricanes never go up the golf that way.

198
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,200
Speaker 2: They always go around the East Coast. They weren't gonna

199
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 2: play that game on Thursday, was absolutely no shots. So technically,

200
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,560
Speaker 2: I think that's also why I'm a little less mad

201
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 2: than you, because I now I've had like six hours

202
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 2: to rationalize that the double header actually gives us a

203
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 2: better chance to get to the playoffs. And you know

204
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 2: what wild card weekend? Wild cards? I mean, it's not

205
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 2: the weekend they're doing it during the week this year.

206
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 2: But it's chaos to begin with. Anyway, you're playing three

207
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 2: games in a row on the road against team in

208
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,719
Speaker 2: playoff atmosphere, win or go home type of scenario, it's

209
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 2: chaos to begin with. Fuck it, let's embrace the chaos.

210
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,440
Speaker 2: This season has been crazyest season has been nuts. We

211
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 2: have a fucking purple mascot being the spiritual leader of

212
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 2: this team. The only thing that's missing is this kind

213
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 2: of nonsense at the end of the season to put

214
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 2: on the fucking DVD at the end of the year

215
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 2: when they win the World Series.

216
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:34,839
Speaker 1: Okay, everything you said is true, and again, like I think,

217
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 1: I'm just mad really right now, and that's why I

218
00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:37,200
Speaker 1: want to record the immediately.

219
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 2: It is incompetent off.

220
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 1: Yes, this incompetence all around everyone involved in the situation

221
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 1: that sucks. And also with the big elephant in the room,

222
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 1: this drastically helps the chance and for just going door

223
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 1: playing a maximumount of games rest much dramatically so. Because

224
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 1: Lindora was going to be in the lineup on Wednesday,

225
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 1: which I also think the Mets may be new, they

226
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 1: probably weren't gonna play the game. Same thing with him

227
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:57,720
Speaker 1: coming up to pinch hit with two outs, and nobody

228
00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 1: on yesterday last night he was he might have he

229
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:02,640
Speaker 1: might have fit last night, but they're definite a lot

230
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 1: of other chances for him to contribute to that game

231
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 1: before that would have happened. But again digress. Now, at

232
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 1: least with extra off days here built in, there seems

233
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:10,960
Speaker 1: to be a high high chance he's in the lineup

234
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:13,559
Speaker 1: on Friday. And now what becomes must win games for

235
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 1: the Mets against the Brewer scene, that's nothing to play for.

236
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 1: When the Braids are being playing must wins, must win

237
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:19,440
Speaker 1: games against the Royals have a lot to play for.

238
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 1: So again this does flip back and help the Mets

239
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,559
Speaker 1: in other ways because that physic school and door coming back.

240
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: Like I said, but now the Braves can't really get

241
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 1: cute with they're pitching. Some people think they're gonna hold

242
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,599
Speaker 1: Chris Saale back to pitch against the Mets. There's no

243
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 1: fucking way to do that. Chris Sale is gonna pitch Friday,

244
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 1: Max Free is gonna pitch Saturday. And I also think

245
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,080
Speaker 1: for the Mets seum and I think is going to

246
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,679
Speaker 1: pitch Friday, yea, And I think Saturday, you probably do.

247
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know if you Katan or Peterson.

248
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:41,480
Speaker 2: Maybe it just depends on what you win. It depends

249
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:42,319
Speaker 2: on it depends if.

250
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:43,880
Speaker 1: You win the one game. I think that there's a

251
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,200
Speaker 1: there's so much game theory. Now it's gonna go on

252
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 1: to this and it all comes back to this gamesmanship

253
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 1: by the Braves, which is really bush league by the

254
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 1: Braves because they're they're it's a fucking loser move by them,

255
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 1: is actually what this was. And I can't I can't

256
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 1: get over the uh, the indecency behind them and all

257
00:10:58,960 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 1: this ship.

258
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 2: This is again the first time in a while where

259
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,200
Speaker 2: the Braves have had a little crack in their armor

260
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,960
Speaker 2: at a little bit of you know, being human for

261
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 2: the first time. The voodoo bullshit that they always work

262
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 2: might work against them this time. They tried to get cute.

263
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 2: They tried to sneak in two Chris Sale starts against

264
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,800
Speaker 2: the Mets and said just one, and now they're gonna

265
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 2: get zero Chris Sales starts against the New York Mets.

266
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 2: So I think again net positive for the playoff situation,

267
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 2: but it is that there has to be some sort

268
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 2: of system in place if this ever were to happen again,

269
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 2: because it is absolutely insane that the home team just

270
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 2: gets to decide the fate of what happens. Like that,

271
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 2: the fact that there's not just a every other sport,

272
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,200
Speaker 2: I feel like as a governing body that's just like

273
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 2: unbiased and makes the best decisions for like the greater good,

274
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 2: which I think is a little bit dumadic.

275
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 1: I don't know about that. The NFL just played the

276
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 1: game in Brazil on a grass field and let the

277
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 1: players just run through slop basically for three hours in

278
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:52,679
Speaker 1: the first They let them.

279
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:54,400
Speaker 2: Play on FedEx Field two every year, and everyone's like,

280
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:56,559
Speaker 2: that's the worst field in the entire NFL. It's not

281
00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 2: even close. But like the idea that the Braves are

282
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 2: just like to be like, Nah, nope, can't do that.

283
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 2: We won't do that. It's not that we can't, we

284
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:07,680
Speaker 2: won't actually do that. We have no interest in doing

285
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 2: that bullshit. But also, you know what good some Mets fans,

286
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:13,559
Speaker 2: we were talking about this earlier to James on text,

287
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 2: some Mets fans don't hate the Braves as much as

288
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 2: we need to. People talk about the Phillies as our

289
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,960
Speaker 2: biggest rivals. People will say heinous things like the New

290
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:23,720
Speaker 2: York Yankees being our biggest rival. We hate the Yankees,

291
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,439
Speaker 2: but we know that the hierarchy is for sure Braves, Phillies,

292
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:29,440
Speaker 2: and a couple other teams than the Yankees. We hate

293
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,320
Speaker 2: the Yankees as like you hate your big brother, but

294
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 2: you don't hate them like you do the Phillies. What oh,

295
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:37,719
Speaker 2: I say that all the time. It doesn't bother me

296
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 2: at all. That so that's very much on brand. That's fine,

297
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 2: you don't have to buy that take. But there's there

298
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:43,840
Speaker 2: wasn't enough hate for the Braves just yet. I know

299
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,440
Speaker 2: everybody hates them, but people don't want this team dead.

300
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,079
Speaker 2: I want them dead. I want them out, I want

301
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 2: them done. I want their season over.

302
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 1: Oh want them dead, want them desecrated again, like we

303
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 1: said before, want them to bleed, like want bad things

304
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 1: to happen to them.

305
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:57,200
Speaker 2: And also and when we say we say bad things

306
00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:00,719
Speaker 2: to happen is very much like you know, uh yeah, they.

307
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 1: Yes, it's like they lose, like they lose. They missed

308
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:07,080
Speaker 1: the playoffs for like nine straight years. I don't want

309
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:08,840
Speaker 1: anyone to be heard. I don't want any ex humans

310

312
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 1: I mean, maybe an embarrassing fashion. Yeah, you're talking about.

Speaker 1: All right, we're back in now. I think another part

338
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:27,119
Speaker 1: of this too, that's also super annoying from the Brace perspective.

339
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 1: They know they're just sitting at home this whole time.

340
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 1: They don't get a home series against the Mets. There's

341
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 1: a home series this weekend against the Royals. Manbe it's

342
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 1: a home double Heather. Now on Monday, where's the Mets are?

343
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 1: You go back forth, back forth, back forth. Another part

344
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 1: of it is so stupid. I was literally you could

345
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 1: just tell the Mets fandom is so hot right now.

346
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 1: I was out. I was down in Brooklyn today, shout

347
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:46,480
Speaker 1: out our guy Eric Hometown Barbecue, best barbecue in the

348
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 1: city by far, the totally bomb went there, had a

349
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 1: great lunch on Wednesday before all this uproarious hatred started

350
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 1: pouring out of my veins. And I was just hanging

351
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 1: out around South Brooklyn, walking around talking to people like

352
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:58,560
Speaker 1: on Smith Street, Guys wearing a Mets I was like,

353
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 1: what's going on, Let's go Mets, and we were lamenting

354
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 1: about how ridiculous it is that the Mets got flexed

355
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 1: on Sunday Night Baseball. Yes, because the Mets, the THNK

356
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: get flexed out of Suday Night Baseball. Would have made

357
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 1: tons of sense for the Mets and the Braves who

358
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:13,040
Speaker 1: had a similar off day, like Joe shar mentioned his article,

359
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 1: who have just started this year is on Monday when

360
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 1: the weather was pristinea perfect. If wude have done a

361
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,680
Speaker 1: Monday game and Tuesday double heather two off days and

362
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:21,880
Speaker 1: then gone to Milwaukee and then Braves had Kansas City,

363
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 1: that would have wound up great too. But because Major

364
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 1: League Baseball is at the whim of the national networks

365
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:28,560
Speaker 1: and the Mets and Phillies have to be on Sunday

366
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 1: Night Baseball, and Kyle Schwarber has to be talking about

367
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 1: his batting practice for team, a lot of people got

368
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 1: mad about that tense moments of the game. Plans is

369
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 1: getting standing ovation for could be his final home games

370
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 1: in New York met But Bryce Harper's talking about his preparation,

371
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 1: not Press Harper. Kyle Schwarber. Yeah, thank you ESPN for

372
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 1: that one. But because that game had to be flexed,

373
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 1: then we're not going to agree to play a game

374
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 1: on Monday, a travel after a night game, play one

375
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 1: of our most important game this season. The whole thing,

376
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 1: step to step to step was completely fucking botched, all

377
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 1: in the name of like a few dollars and some

378
00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 1: television ratings by Major League Baseball and then the brave

379
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 1: You know, it sucked.

380
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 2: It sucked. We even were like, why are we playing

381
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 2: Sunday night? Like this game has no significance now besides

382
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:08,800
Speaker 2: the whatever, Like I know, the Phillies could have technically

383
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:11,560
Speaker 2: clinched the NL East, why not put on the Orioles Tigers.

384
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 2: That game meant a lot more to both of those

385
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:15,040
Speaker 2: teams than it did for the Mets Phillies because the

386
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 2: Mets were the only team fighting for a playoff spot

387
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 2: in that game, whereas the Tigers and Orioles are fighting

388
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,080
Speaker 2: for a spot with each other. At that point, they

389
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 2: were fighting for it with each other, So it was

390
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:24,840
Speaker 2: a weird call. I mean, we know what it is.

391
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 2: It's East Coast bias, it's Mets first Phillies, it's a rivalry,

392
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 2: it's the game was like we were there at the

393
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 2: games and credit it was awesome. I mean it happened

394
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 2: at one o'clock. I would have preferred that seven o'clock.

395
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 2: Is great. I'm glad we won, but holy shit, thank

396
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 2: god we won, by the way, because last night's game

397
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 2: was or Tuesday night's game was atrocious. But yeah, this

398
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 2: is a just gonna be another page. And what is

399
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,800
Speaker 2: going to be one of the most chaotic. Who put

400
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 2: out the graft the other day on Twitter that you

401
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 2: sent me where it had like the spikes and like

402
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 2: here's where Grimace was, Here's where the dog was, Here's

403
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 2: where OMG happened. You're gonna add the rain delay at

404
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 2: some point, the double header on a Monday days before

405
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 2: you have to play the biggest series maybe of your

406
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,119
Speaker 2: entire season if you make it to the postseason. Just

407
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 2: absolutely crazy. But yeah, get let's give that person a

408
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:09,800
Speaker 2: little love.

409
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 1: That was from these Mets at love these Mets in

410
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,639
Speaker 1: the Mets community, and it's probably one of my favorite

411
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,680
Speaker 1: tweets I've ever seen because he'll put first this. Yeah first,

412
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,720
Speaker 1: this person did a very basic one of like this

413
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,560
Speaker 1: is when like this when the Mets lost their first

414
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,159
Speaker 1: few games. This was Jorge Lopez. This was Grimace. This

415
00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:27,159
Speaker 1: was OMG, this was the grimmest sea, like this is

416
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:28,760
Speaker 1: where we are now. And then someone was like, can

417
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:30,720
Speaker 1: you add all the other stuff? And this person added

418
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,880
Speaker 1: like fifteen more little things with like the art art appage,

419
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 1: like these little arrows. It was Sanger returning, OMG concert

420
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:39,879
Speaker 1: All Star break City Connect reveal h Seymour Wiener like

421
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,720
Speaker 1: Luis Torrents for one hundred thousand dollars and a big

422
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 1: bracket the gay Mets like written in rainbow others. It's

423
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:46,840
Speaker 1: one of the best graphics I've ever seen on Twitter.

424
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 1: But it's just this does come down to just another little,

425
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,680
Speaker 1: tiny chapter and what's truthfully been the most fucking chaotic

426
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 1: season the Mets base. But I remember my life and

427
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 1: the fact that it was it was going to come

428
00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:58,919
Speaker 1: to an end for better or worse at the end

429
00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,640
Speaker 1: of this week, and I was so we really war

430
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,399
Speaker 1: the other night that was like, yes, I kept all

431
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:05,800
Speaker 1: my energy tight and I was ready to do for

432
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:07,959
Speaker 1: more week and We're gonna have to go back to this.

433
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 1: Help hit this miserable place Truest Park for two games

434
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:16,360
Speaker 1: on Monday, twenty four hours before a fucking possible playoff

435
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,639
Speaker 1: series begins. It's unbelievable. How could this how could they

436
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:20,920
Speaker 1: let it get to this point.

437
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:23,880
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, I just got a I got

438
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:25,159
Speaker 2: a crazy thought in my head. I was like, what

439
00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 2: for it rains Monday.

440
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess I'll I'll look at the weather

441
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:30,400
Speaker 1: right now, whatever I check.

442
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 2: It's part, it's part. It's partly cloudy Atlanta on Sunday.

443
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,080
Speaker 2: But I'm like, imagine the world it rains on Monday,

444
00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 2: then what do you do? Like what happens? This is

445
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:41,679
Speaker 2: why it's like, so it was irresponsible by both the

446
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 2: Atlanta Braves the Major League Baseball to not make this

447
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 2: series go Monday doubleheader Tuesday, or at least go Monday

448
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 2: Tuesday Wednesday and move the game up on Wednesday to

449
00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 2: an earlier to start time. There's there really is no

450
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:55,080
Speaker 2: reason that the metice went on Monday. But I know

451
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:56,520
Speaker 2: it's because of the Sunday night based.

452
00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,240
Speaker 1: Monday Night Baseball. Yeah, so if that wasn't the case,

453
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:01,360
Speaker 1: but again that's ESPN, National Network, Railroad, the MLB, which

454
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,119
Speaker 1: they will do that and also of course of all

455
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,480
Speaker 1: the slate and Sunday like yeah, Oriols Tigers were a

456
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:08,360
Speaker 1: great important game. Honestly, I don't think I don't think

457
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,360
Speaker 1: the national electorate wanted to see Orioles Tigers. I don't

458
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:14,359
Speaker 1: think they would have been super sinsilated by Diamondbacks Brewers. No,

459
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:16,920
Speaker 1: it always comes down to the East Coast teams. Everyone

460
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:19,120
Speaker 1: wants the Mets, everyone's affillies, everyone's the Yankees, every wants

461
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 1: the Red Sox. That's just how that's just how sports

462
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,359
Speaker 1: work for these networks. Always been that way. But they

463
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:25,440
Speaker 1: also it did rain all day Wednesday, so we'ren't able

464
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,359
Speaker 1: to move that game up. But the fact that the

465
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:31,240
Speaker 1: Braves seem to be just broke penny pinching mister crabs

466
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:33,280
Speaker 1: over here. They can't move two of these games to

467
00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 1: a neutral site just to get them in to improve

468
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 1: their own potential in possibly reaching the playoffs. If they

469
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 1: should be confident enough they could win the series straight up,

470
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:42,920
Speaker 1: which again maybe they weren't. They they have to muddy

471
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:44,679
Speaker 1: the waters and muck it up because they know how

472
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 1: much worse their team is than ours. Right now. It's

473
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 1: so dumb. I'm so mad, Like we could just MLB.

474
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 1: Seems like they soft suggested let's play the series in Texas,

475
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 1: which is weird that they like neutral site as Texas

476
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,440
Speaker 1: for all these games globe. Maybe it's a great I

477
00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 1: don't know why that the Texas always becomes the neutral setting.

478
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:01,399
Speaker 1: If they even could have done something like more in

479
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:03,080
Speaker 1: the area to make the Braves feel more at home,

480
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,560
Speaker 1: I understand it also would be a logistical nightmare, but

481
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 1: this seems like much more of a logistical nightmare for everybody, right,

482
00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:10,640
Speaker 1: and maybe it's more of a logical nightmare for the Mets.

483
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:11,480
Speaker 1: Will it does help? I did.

484
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:13,720
Speaker 2: It's my head spinning right now. There's so much shit,

485
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 2: There's so much stuff. I can't believe this is real.

486
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 2: And also, where are.

487
00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,240
Speaker 1: We gonna watch these games on Monday at one o'clock

488
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:21,880
Speaker 1: one and four? Straight up double heather on Monday?

489
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 2: I mean, anybody who listens, if you, if you work

490
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:25,680
Speaker 2: at a bar, you own a bar that's gonna be

491
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:27,879
Speaker 2: open at one o'clock on a Monday and willing to

492
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:29,719
Speaker 2: have me and James sit in it. We just we

493
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:31,560
Speaker 2: just need a couple of stools. We need a couple stools,

494
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:33,920
Speaker 2: a couple of cold beverages that we're happy to pay for,

495
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 2: but we need somewhere to watch because I'm telling you

496
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 2: right now. It cannot be in my apartment. There's no shot.

497
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:40,200
Speaker 1: I don't want to do it in my apartment either,

498
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:41,600
Speaker 1: So I'm sure it's gonna be a nice day. Like

499
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,160
Speaker 1: I would love to find a place to watch these

500
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,199
Speaker 1: outside somewhere, like I wish we could do like how

501
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:47,800
Speaker 1: the Rangers did the playoff games like projector in Central Park.

502
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 1: Just a bunch of rabid Mets fans there, But then

503
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,920
Speaker 1: there's not another Like could you imagine put yourself put

504
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 1: yourself in different shoes right now? Could you imagine if

505
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 1: you had a real job, and like how could you?

506
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:00,960
Speaker 1: How could you say that work on Monday? I feel

507
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:02,200
Speaker 1: bad for all of you guys listening who are going

Speaker 1: you work in like a New York Central company, this

513
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:13,640
Speaker 1: should absolutely be cost to get out of work come

514
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 1: Monday at like no doubt about it. Like this, this

515
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,119
Speaker 1: is the most important game of season is basical playoff

516
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:19,760
Speaker 1: games with two of them, and one day.

517
00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:21,159
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say it here first, so that we know

518
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 2: that we came up with this idea. When the marketing

519
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,520
Speaker 2: team inevitably takes it, they're gonna open up City Field

520
00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:28,480
Speaker 2: on Monday for a watch party at that stadium.

521
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:32,879
Speaker 1: Maybe, I mean they definitely should did and whenever they

522
00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:34,840
Speaker 1: listen to this podcast, but on two Thursday afternoon, they're

523
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 1: gonna go, oh yeah, something gonna steal the idea, announce

524
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 1: it to the team.

525
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 2: Whatever it is, don't do the fucking watch party at

526
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:41,639
Speaker 2: that bar in the Lower east Side that we went

527
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:45,720
Speaker 2: during the last series. Not allowed, called like Lemon drop

528
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 2: or something Harry Lemon. Harry Lemon there it is, I

529
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:50,680
Speaker 2: knew something Lemon related. Never again in that bar. Never.

530
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,920
Speaker 1: No, absolutely not allowed. It's just it also.

531
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,639
Speaker 2: Completely fucks the timing backs too, because the Diamonbacks are

532
00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:59,440
Speaker 2: gonna have to wait watch till Monday to figure out

533
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,240
Speaker 2: where they could traveling if they're in the postseason. Uh.

534
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 2: The Royals are like, oh great, now we get to

535
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,920
Speaker 2: face Garzale and Max Reed. Thanks a lot. Braves were

536
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 2: fighting for a postseason spot. Like the ramifications of this

537
00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:13,280
Speaker 2: decision making are massive, not just to the Mets and

538
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:15,600
Speaker 2: the Braves alone. This affects other teams as well. This

539
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:17,840
Speaker 2: theoretically could affect the Padres as well.

540
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,680
Speaker 1: The Padres, oddly right now, while they're the first wildcard team,

541
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:24,080
Speaker 1: are in play not only for the National League West,

542
00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:26,080
Speaker 1: but for the top overall seed the National League.

543
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:27,840
Speaker 2: So this could fuck up the Dodgers too.

544
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:30,639
Speaker 1: This could suck up every single team basically besides the

545
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,480
Speaker 1: Phillies and the Bruers. I guess the Brewis and Brewis

546
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:34,919
Speaker 1: are locked him. The Brews wi't know who they're paying is.

547
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:36,640
Speaker 1: You can't really game plan, I guess whatever. You can't

548
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 1: game plan, Oh my god. But the NCUBA Tornment teams

549
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 1: they do the game plans like in one day before

550
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 1: the next round. But it's just I think the Diamondbacks

551
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:44,399
Speaker 1: are the ones who might have been the most royally

552
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 1: fucked here because this team is I'm not gonna say

553
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 1: they're in a free fall because the team Yeah you

554
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 1: say nothing, no, I know, but I'm saying like they

555
00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:53,680
Speaker 1: have a series this weekend against the Padres and the Padres,

556
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,960
Speaker 1: depending on how Wednesday and Thursday's game going against the

557
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 1: Dodgers could have different things to play for. If the

558
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 1: Dia Padres wind up splitting these games against the Dodgers

559
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 1: and still go into that last year's the year back

560
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 1: two games. They're gonna be gunning like they're gonna be

561
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:06,359
Speaker 1: doing everything they can to do it, and it might

562
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 1: not mad if the Dodgers could win out. I gotta see.

563
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:11,480
Speaker 1: The Dodgers are playing, but that Padres team, who's the

564
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,280
Speaker 1: hottest team baseball right now, playing like they're the best

565
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 1: team in baseball, which is it's so impressive how royally

566
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:18,719
Speaker 1: they fucked up their offseason. They're still playing like one

567
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:20,240
Speaker 1: of the best team is baseball. It's a lot of

568
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 1: credit to those players in the clubhouse. But it's really bizarre,

569
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:25,719
Speaker 1: honestly looking back. But I can't I just can't believe

570
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,920
Speaker 1: the butterfly effective ramification says, Oh, the Dodgers are going

571
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,000
Speaker 1: two corese fields for the last skip series of the year.

572
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:32,320
Speaker 1: That's not that much fun.

573
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:37,920
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what. They almost can't lose the division

574
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 2: because the Dodgers in particular, but when they go home

575
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 2: from Corus Field, they have horrendous numbers and they would

576
00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,840
Speaker 2: be playing the next two days or two days later,

577
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,240
Speaker 2: not enough recovery time. That'd be a bad move for

578
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 2: the Dodgers to have to play in the wild card

579
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 2: if that was the case.

580
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, and also if you guys didn't see it, Dodgers

581
00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:59,439
Speaker 1: Padres game on Twesday ended with a triple play by

582
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 1: Miguel Ojas with shoe Hao Tany on deck in a

583
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 1: two run game. It was it was so vital to

584
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:07,679
Speaker 1: me to get a saved from Robert Swarez in a

585
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,600
Speaker 1: fancy championship matchup. It was unbelievable. I was. I was

586
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 1: screaming on my couch watching at Dodgers Padres triple play.

587
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 2: Baseball talk unrelated to the Mets. Do you bump with

588
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 2: Miguel Rojas there knowing Shoeo Tony and Mookie Bets and

589
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:20,639
Speaker 2: Freddy Freeman are coming up next, I still.

590
00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 1: Don't bump because they had hoped they such ease with

591
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:25,160
Speaker 1: Robert Swarez. That ending professional hit there.

592
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 2: Want Rojas swinging like I mean, take away the triple play.

593
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:32,960
Speaker 2: That's a triple player with a double play, and then like,

594
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:34,480
Speaker 2: I don't know, you walk O Tani have to face

595
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 2: Mooie Bets and then oh where we put him bases loaded?

596
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 2: And then have to face Party Freeman.

597
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 1: I don't know, You're not wrong in INTERVACTU that might

598
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:42,440
Speaker 1: have been. That might have been the one situation where

599
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:44,240
Speaker 1: if you're down by multiple runs you should bunch. I

600
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:47,399
Speaker 1: know you're bad. How bad mcguil roass is relatives to

601
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:48,879
Speaker 1: the three guys behind it. But again the fact that

602
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:50,480
Speaker 1: also it wasn't even a bet it was it was

603
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 1: a well hit ball, It was down the line. Mann

604
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:54,200
Speaker 1: Child backhanded the ball on the line and Jay Cronaworth

605
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 1: with a ridiculously good turn in second base. And I

606
00:24:57,480 --> 00:24:59,400
Speaker 1: tell you micel rohas much slower than he looks coming

607
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,200
Speaker 1: down the line there. But this is it's every There's

608
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:03,679
Speaker 1: so much up in the air right now. It kind

609
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:04,800
Speaker 1: of sucks that we're not gonna talk to you guys

610
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 1: probably until Monday, because so many things are gonna happen

611
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:10,840
Speaker 1: before then. It's gonna be insane episode because like anything

612
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 1: could happen between now Monday, where the Mets have to Also,

613
00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:16,400
Speaker 1: this is situation the Diamondbacks lose a bunch of games

614
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:20,359
Speaker 1: this week. Pretend Mets and Braves both clinch. Whether you

615
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 1: have do you how do you handle those games?

616
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:22,840
Speaker 2: You do?

617
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 4: What do you do?

618
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:25,360
Speaker 2: Like if you're the if you're the Mets and you're

619
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,400
Speaker 2: you're already in and the Braves are already and you're like, okay,

620
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:28,920
Speaker 2: you guys win like you do. You go out on

621
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:30,639
Speaker 2: the field and like tip the cap, right, winner, you

622
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:32,159
Speaker 2: get you get it. We don't want to go to

623
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 2: San Diego. We want to play milwalk Like.

624
00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:37,119
Speaker 1: That's what do you mean? Yeah, but you can't do that.

625
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:38,879
Speaker 1: You go in the field and try to lose on purpose.

626
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:41,679
Speaker 1: But kind and then also, here's another crazy one. What

627
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 1: if the Mets win two out of three this weekend,

628
00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:44,480
Speaker 1: the Braves lose two out of three, The Mets and

629
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:47,119
Speaker 1: Braves played game one, the Mets win Game one, clinch,

630
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:49,840
Speaker 1: what do you do? Do you champagne? Do you champagne

631
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:50,640
Speaker 1: between the double header?

632
00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:52,480
Speaker 2: But then what if game two matters for the Braves

633
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:56,120
Speaker 2: because they're fine, yes, and then you're now the Mets.

634
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,199
Speaker 2: You're locked into either the Padres or the Dodgers, and

635
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 2: the other team has to be locked into the Brewers.

636
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 1: Have you just not do you just not play anyone?

637
00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:06,280
Speaker 1: This is like this possible Wasscarra throw nine innings that game?

638
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:08,080
Speaker 1: He left off the playoff roster? Like what has to

639
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:09,679
Speaker 1: double head? You call it an extra? Guys, there's Mike

640
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 1: vass on nine innings.

641
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:12,000
Speaker 2: I was about to say, who's like one of the

642
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:13,800
Speaker 2: like thirty five year old pitchers that's been in Triple

643
00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 2: A getting shelled all year? Like do you call him? Yeah,

644
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:18,199
Speaker 2: you called Joey Lucas. You're like, Bud, welcome to the

645
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:20,080
Speaker 2: Major's your back, buddy. Nine.

646
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 1: You pitch nine innings, you get your game check in,

647
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 1: it's all and then you get to hang out of

648
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 1: the dug out during the playoff run. It's just there's

649
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:28,040
Speaker 1: so many tiny little things are gonna happen between now

650
00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:30,600
Speaker 1: and Monday. I can't even like, there's too many permutations

651
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:32,400
Speaker 1: even do on this podcast. Right now, I.

652
00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 2: Will say I feel so good that we're gonna have

653
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 2: a nice break for a couple of days, like two

654
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 2: nights off of just like you know what, Like after

655
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:42,560
Speaker 2: we're done with this podcast, after it's edited, my brain

656
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:45,560
Speaker 2: shut offs. It's it's it's off. The Braves don't even

657
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:47,840
Speaker 2: play tomorrow, so I can't hate watch them. I guess

658
00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 2: I can hate watch the Diamondbacks. But it's just like

659
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 2: one of those things we're say, all right, the calm

660
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 2: before the storem, because the next four days will be

661
00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:58,159
Speaker 2: absolute chaos.

662
00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:00,360
Speaker 1: Madness, I can't even This is another thing, like it's

663
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:03,119
Speaker 1: going to be such a challenge for Carls Medoz that

664
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,440
Speaker 1: to help this team and not look ahead to Monday. Yeah,

665
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 1: because now these three Brewers games are just simply more

666
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:09,720
Speaker 1: important than the games Monday, because if you win these

667
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:11,879
Speaker 1: Brewers games, you can kind of push those games Monday

668
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:13,680
Speaker 1: and make them not mean as much. Then it would

669
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 1: be so much beneficial, so beneficial of this team for

670
00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,439
Speaker 1: those games a Monday to mean less, just then you

671
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 1: could get yourselves kind of an order for what would

672
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,399
Speaker 1: be a playoff series that begins on Tuesdays. I can't

673
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,320
Speaker 1: believe how much trauma there is with this shit. It's

674
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 1: only the fucking Mets. This would happened to only the Mets.

675
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 2: Before we do talk about the Brewers series coming up here,

676
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,600

Speaker 2: All right, so we've got the Brewer series coming up.

698
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 2: I don't think we're gonna have pitching matchups because again,

699
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 2: we don't know what's happening.

700
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:42,720
Speaker 1: Well, I think what we should do is talk about

701
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 1: how we'd play the pitching matchups.

702
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:44,400
Speaker 2: Mate.

703
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:46,600
Speaker 1: I think I think that's kind of an interesting discussion

704
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:50,600
Speaker 1: because right now, I think if you talk about I

705
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,160
Speaker 1: don't care about who pitched last. If you let's say

706
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:55,560
Speaker 1: we're making the hierarchy of met starting pitchers right now,

707
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 1: Sean and I are ranking them manayah sevenin o.

708
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:07,480
Speaker 2: Ah man right. I'm Michael, I'm a man. I'm Michael Kintana.

709
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 1: That's not great either.

710
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:12,719
Speaker 2: I know, I mean either. The options are the options

711
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,960
Speaker 2: are the options we have. But I might you know

712
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:17,640
Speaker 2: what I'm you know what I'm gonna say. Here's what

713
00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 2: I'll give you. I'll go Peterson, have McGill ready, have

714
00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:22,840
Speaker 2: Budo ready immediately to go as soon as he hits

715
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 2: the third in and get one of those guys up.

716
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:24,920
Speaker 2: We piggy back.

717
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 1: He has n't thrown more than an inning in a

718
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:27,240
Speaker 1: month and a half.

719
00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 2: It's it's it's almost October. It's time to wake up.

720
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 2: He can do it. But I'm just saying, let me

721
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 2: give it to McGill.

722
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:34,880
Speaker 1: I think I think, I think McGill is the guy

723
00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 1: who would be the the let's see what happens star

724
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,400
Speaker 1: the because it's just like again, like there's a real chance.

725
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,320
Speaker 1: Maybe the game Sunday doesn't mean anything. There's a real

726
00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 1: chance the second game Monday doesn't mean anything. And then

727
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:47,680
Speaker 1: there's just like this massive shuffling. Then some people were like,

728
00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 1: you have to hold back when I pitch against the Braves.

729
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 1: No way, then he won't pitch for nine days. He's

730
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,120
Speaker 1: too good of a pitcher to miss any starts whatsoever.

731
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,400
Speaker 1: And at least he pitches on Friday. If we get

732
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 1: to Tuesday, then he can pitch possibly Game two the

733
00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 1: wild Card Series on Wednesday. And then and if we

734
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:03,400
Speaker 1: wind up throwing sever renos Saturday, because if we pitch

735
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:08,000
Speaker 1: Manaya Sevrino Friday Saturday and the Braves lose and the

736
00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 1: Diamonbacks lose two more games, then I think, based on

737
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:12,680
Speaker 1: my Matt that Saturday win is a clinch for the Mets.

738
00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:13,840
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe not.

739
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, So the magic number is four still because nothing

740
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 2: changed with last night. So Friday Friday is the most

741
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,400
Speaker 2: important game right now of the season. You have to

742
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 2: win Friday because if you win Friday, you bring the

743
00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 2: magic number down to three. If the Braves lose on Friday,

744
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 2: it's officially two. You do that again on Saturday. Mets

745
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:33,000
Speaker 2: are in. Mets are in the playoffs. That Brave Series

746
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 2: will not matter for shit besides seeding and honestly, don't care.

747
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:39,160
Speaker 2: Don't care about the seeding at all. Get in the playoffs,

748
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:41,320
Speaker 2: play who you play. But that's why you have to

749
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:45,080
Speaker 2: start manayas Friday set can Sevey start Saturday? Is that?

750
00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:46,240
Speaker 2: What's the day's rest on that?

751
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 1: He'd probably have to start Sundays he pitched Tuesday, Okay,

752
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 1: so it would be either Peterson Orquintana or whoever, whatever

753
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 1: they decide would be say again, yeah, but then that

754
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 1: that's now where the game theory comes into play, because

755
00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:01,080
Speaker 1: let's say you win Friday, you think and go for

756
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 1: a kill shot Sunday. Whoever pitches Sunday and Saturday, I

757
00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 1: guess in Friday too, basically guarantee you cannot pitch in

758
00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 1: the Double Heather. These you're pitching three guys this weekend

759
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:11,200
Speaker 1: who will not be able to appear in this Double Heather.

760
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:16,320
Speaker 1: So you're probably holding back one of Severno, Peterson or

761
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:18,600
Speaker 1: Quintana the start game one of the Double Heather. Then

762
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:20,720
Speaker 1: McGill's basically I think a lock for game to the

763
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 1: Double Heather unless you win the first two games and

764
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,200
Speaker 1: then McGill pitches the Sunday and then you probably don't

765
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:28,200
Speaker 1: want Sevreuena to face the Braves again, so probably hold

766
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 1: back Severno. So you're almost kind of guaranteed that either

767
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:33,320
Speaker 1: Kintana or Peterson starts that Monday, the first game with Doublehead.

768
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 1: I think we just worked through it.

769
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:36,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think we did. I think you just figured

770
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 2: it out.

771
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:38,880
Speaker 1: And I also say this, I think there's a world

772
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 1: where you might just do Severino again, because I don't

773
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 1: think I don't think Saverna pitched that poorly. I don't

774
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:44,760
Speaker 1: think there was I think there was a lot of

775
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 1: Severreenna that was slight lack of execution on his part

776
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:49,400
Speaker 1: and on the defensive part. And I think because but

777
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:50,880
Speaker 1: this is this was a good take that came from

778
00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:52,960
Speaker 1: Brandon Stephen from the Brave show Hammer Territory. You guys

779
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 1: listen to ham Her Territory. This Braves team is susceptible

780
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:58,600
Speaker 1: to a really talented riety because there are only two

781
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 1: lefties in the lineup. It's about sting those two lefties out.

782
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,040
Speaker 1: It's about not letting Michael Harris gouge you again and

783
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 1: had it going for almost a fucking cycle by the

784
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:07,640
Speaker 1: fifth inning. But in terms of the entire Mets staff,

785
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:11,160
Speaker 1: Severno is the best matchup for this team that's already's like,

786
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:12,960
Speaker 1: I don't know how badly I'm jumping to start lefties

787
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 1: against this Braves team, and I think, is.

788
00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:17,560
Speaker 2: This I feel like I got told recently that the

789
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:21,160
Speaker 2: Brewers struggle against left handed pitching. So maybe maybe he

790
00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 2: told me that. Maybe maybe I did, but someone told

791
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 2: me through the grape vine. I want to say, honestly,

792
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 2: I want to say, Presidents gear Crats when I went

793
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:30,640
Speaker 2: on Found Territory, asked me this question about who are

794
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,120
Speaker 2: you pitching against the Brewers, and I remember like having

795
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:35,880
Speaker 2: being very stuck up, like I don't know, I don't know,

796
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:38,720
Speaker 2: I can't think about that yet. Maybe you just maybe

797
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 2: you just go the two lefties and then you have

798
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 2: Severino and you have you have Tyler McGill.

799
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:49,360
Speaker 1: I again, weirdly against this Brave team that is all

800
00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:53,680
Speaker 1: right handed hit. There's like, I may there's a world also.

801
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 1: I think I'm just also more confident in like a

802
00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:58,640
Speaker 1: you know, oh my god, I can't.

803
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:00,200
Speaker 2: I can't believe you're gonna say this.

804
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:04,160
Speaker 1: I there's a world right now where that Tyler McGill

805
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 1: is doing things in the short sample he's pitching, and

806
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 1: where I wouldn't hate him starting at an important game.

807
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:10,040
Speaker 1: These might these might be my last words, but he

808
00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:12,440
Speaker 1: just did it pretty well, like a couple times in

809
00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 1: a row. Milwaukee is exactly the league average team against

810
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:18,560
Speaker 1: lefties and the Brewers are that's that's a ninety nine

811
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:23,800
Speaker 1: WRC plus. And against righty's they are, uh, where are they?

812
00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:27,920
Speaker 1: Milwaukee one of six? They are sixteen to tent they're

813
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 1: slightly worse against lefties. Yeah, which, okay, that's something that's

814
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:34,120
Speaker 1: like a coin flip, basically yeah, it's basically doesn't matter

815
00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:36,720
Speaker 1: at all. But I think that Braves team is definitely

816
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,200
Speaker 1: going through the lineup on Tuesday, seems like they would

817
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:41,680
Speaker 1: be much worse against the righty compared to a lefty

818
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,320
Speaker 1: because only two lefties. Again, those two lefts are two

819
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 1: of the best three hitters on the team in the lineup,

820
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 1: so that makes that difficult. It's just such Sophie truck.

821
00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:51,480
Speaker 1: I can't I I'd love to be a fly on

822
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:53,560
Speaker 1: the wall right now. Like in the meeting with Mendoza,

823
00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:56,520
Speaker 1: Sterns Hefner like all all the guys right now talking

824
00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:58,120
Speaker 1: about how they're gonna align this pitching and what they're

825
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 1: gonna do because there's rumors about Paul black Room like

826
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:02,680
Speaker 1: coming back to and being activated. Like there's there's so

827
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:05,200
Speaker 1: many tiny little premutation about what can happen, Like this is,

828
00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 1: this is this is the epitome of like running a

829
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,680
Speaker 1: baseball team. This is also like a legit nightmare.

830
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:13,720
Speaker 2: You know, this is this is chaos to the fullest extent,

831
00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:16,319
Speaker 2: and we're just gonna have to watch it. We're just

832
00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:18,400
Speaker 2: gonna have to watch it. Go is going to be

833
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:22,600
Speaker 2: a stressful weekend. Hopefully Monday. God, I hope Monday doesn't

834
00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:25,120
Speaker 2: matter at all for the positive. I hope it positively

835
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:25,719
Speaker 2: doesn't matter.

836
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:28,719
Speaker 1: But I think there's no chance. It doesn't have no shot.

837
00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:30,919
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter. Of course it's gonna matter. That's because

838
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:32,840
Speaker 2: this is being a Mets fan. I know a lot

839
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:34,879
Speaker 2: of you guys probably didn't listen to yesterday's episode, because

840
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 2: I don't blame you. We hopped on with Braves fans

841
00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:38,759
Speaker 2: to hear them talk about how great the game was

842
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 2: for them and how terrible it was for us. We

843
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:42,400
Speaker 2: saw the game, we watched it. We don't need to

844
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:44,800
Speaker 2: relive it. Don't blame you guys for not listening. Hopefully,

845
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:48,680
Speaker 2: can you're listening to this one though, we.

846
00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:50,759
Speaker 1: Should we should touch on some Brewers things because we

847
00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:53,239
Speaker 1: haven't seen them since March, and this team is really

848
00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:57,120
Speaker 1: different since then. Namely, Jackson Surio is ascended. He's one

849
00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,200
Speaker 1: of the most dynamic lee of feathers in baseball at

850
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:01,040
Speaker 1: twenty years old. I think he's the first person their

851
00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:04,080
Speaker 1: age twenty season to go twenty twenty and he's done

852
00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,319
Speaker 1: it die in dominant fashion. He has like a nine

853
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 1: hundred ops over the last three months. William Contreras one

854
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:10,840
Speaker 1: of the best seating catchers in the league. William Domas

855
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:13,360
Speaker 1: has had an amazing bounce back season bounce back season

856
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,279
Speaker 1: mark over eight hundred ops. Reee Hoskins, I mean, we

857
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:17,960
Speaker 1: all know everything about ree Hoskins. You want to know.

858
00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:20,000
Speaker 1: That's just it. He's not having a good year, but

859
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:21,439
Speaker 1: I know he'll do something to kill the Mets because

860
00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:23,759
Speaker 1: he lives to kill the Mets. Joey Erti is a

861
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:25,399
Speaker 1: good little player. The bomb, the order is South free

862
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:27,399
Speaker 1: Look and Bryce Terrang are exactly what they always were,

863
00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:31,439
Speaker 1: just pasky little bastards that just can run around. William Contreres, Yes,

864
00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 1: the best one, probably the best thing catcher in basketball. Yeah,

865
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:34,200
Speaker 1: I mean he's.

866
00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:36,880
Speaker 2: He's he's unbelievable. I will say Freddie Peralta is pitching

867
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:38,040
Speaker 2: tonight Wednesday night, and.

868
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:40,600
Speaker 1: Tobias Meyers pitch Tuesdays. We're not gonna see.

869
00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:42,959
Speaker 2: Them, and so Vali's pitching Thursday, so we're not gonna

870
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:43,640
Speaker 2: see those guys.

871
00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:45,880
Speaker 1: So we might see to Actually we'll see to Bias Sunday.

872
00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:48,360
Speaker 2: Then, yeah, we'll see Tobias Meyers one of the days,

873
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:50,759
Speaker 2: and then the other it's Colin Ray and your boy

874
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:52,760
Speaker 2: Frankie Montos, Right, is that who we're going to be getting.

875
00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:54,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're definitely getting mont this weekend. He's a for

876
00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:56,480
Speaker 1: sure monster. Is coming off some bad starts. It's been

877
00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:58,520
Speaker 1: pretty good in the second half. The Brewers are pushing

878
00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:01,040
Speaker 1: his fastball usage because he throws ninety eight miles an hour,

879
00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:02,600
Speaker 1: and it's it's been helping him a lot before a

880
00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:05,120
Speaker 1: bad blow up last weekend against I think that was

881
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:07,920
Speaker 1: the Phil Lees and then Tobias Myers, a guy who

882
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:10,719
Speaker 1: likely going to see on Sunday. He's going to infuriate

883
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:12,799
Speaker 1: everybody watching the Brewers. Did the Brewers thing where they

884
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 1: picked up Tobias Myers off the scrap heap. I believe

885
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:17,799
Speaker 1: if I'm not mistaken. He was a Ray and he

886
00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:21,120
Speaker 1: was traded to the Guardians for Junior Camenero, who's become

887
00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:23,279
Speaker 1: like the top power hitting prospect in baseball. Looks like

888
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:24,400
Speaker 1: a future stud get.

889
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:26,520
Speaker 2: Ready for this. He was an Oriole traded for Tim Beckham,

890
00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:29,160
Speaker 2: Tim Beckham for Mumber one overall from the Rays. He

891
00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:31,359
Speaker 2: was then traded to the Rays, or from the Rays

892
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:33,800
Speaker 2: to the Guardians for Junior Kamenaro, who became one of

893
00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:36,399
Speaker 2: the top prospects in baseball. The Giants then got him

894
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:38,880
Speaker 2: from the Guardians. He was selected by waivers by the

895
00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:41,040
Speaker 2: White Sox. From the Giants, the White Sox caught him

896
00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:43,080
Speaker 2: at the end of twenty twenty two. The Brewers signed

897
00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:45,520
Speaker 2: him a month later or two months later, and now

898
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:47,359
Speaker 2: he's been one of their best pictures all year. Where

899
00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:48,760
Speaker 2: would they be without Tobias Myers.

900
00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:51,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's a three point zero ninety in twenty five starts.

901
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:53,799
Speaker 1: It's pretty amazing what he's been doing. And he's just

902
00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:56,480
Speaker 1: doing it with like some classic kitchens and bullshit like

903
00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:58,759
Speaker 1: four seemer color. He's got a sinker he mix in

904
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,080
Speaker 1: there time and you bd not that also curveball change up.

905
00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:03,400
Speaker 2: They're gonna probably give us a little bit of Joe Ross,

906
00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:04,759
Speaker 2: who's been a long man for them out of the

907
00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:06,359
Speaker 2: bullpen a little bit. This year. We're proably gonna see

908
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:06,960
Speaker 2: a little bit of d L.

909
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:07,200
Speaker 4: Hall.

910
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:09,239
Speaker 2: We're probab gonna see a little bit of Aaron Ashby. Again.

911
00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:12,640
Speaker 2: They have no incentive to physically win these games outside

912
00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:14,520
Speaker 2: of like maybe moving up the out of the wild

913
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:17,399
Speaker 2: card they can right there are only two games behind

914
00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 2: the Phillies for a bye, and a bye is massive

915
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:22,880
Speaker 2: not playing a wildcard round. Yeah, in the same regards,

916
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,719
Speaker 2: you don't want to push your pitchers more than you

917
00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:27,839
Speaker 2: have to knowing that there could be three days, three

918
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 2: games and three days coming up again. So I think

919
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:32,879
Speaker 2: there's gonna be a little bit more caution on their

920
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,440
Speaker 2: side with pitch counts, how deep pitchers go into games this.

921
00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:38,960
Speaker 1: Series totally, but I think they're also there is massive.

922
00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:40,839
Speaker 1: I mean again, lot's gonna happen before the series starts

923
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:42,719
Speaker 1: because every one of these teams, naturally he is gonna

924
00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 1: play two games while the Mets and the Brads are idle.

925
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:46,360
Speaker 1: So a lot of this can change, Like the Phillies

926
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:48,200
Speaker 1: can just keep winning. They're already winning four nothing against

927
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:50,640
Speaker 1: the Cubs and in the third inning, Cups team that's

928
00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:53,400
Speaker 1: finally decided to roll over after actually pretty good second half.

929
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:57,080
Speaker 1: Christopher Sanchez is dealing castianos and Trey Turner have home runs.

930
00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:59,280
Speaker 1: Phillies look like they're gonna win this one. The Brewers

931
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:01,920
Speaker 1: are also playing europe Pirates, who suck, and they just

932
00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:04,440
Speaker 1: they're going they're going through massive turmoil because they released

933
00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:07,640
Speaker 1: they released Radley Tillez with four play appearances to go

934
00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:10,240
Speaker 1: until two hundred thousand dollars bonus, and Ben Chrrington swears

935
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:13,440
Speaker 1: they didn't dfa him because of the bonus, because you

936
00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:16,160
Speaker 1: know of things that are happening, and why didn't you

937
00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:17,839
Speaker 1: know it. Riley fill has actually has been hitting as

938
00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:19,399
Speaker 1: best as he has all year, the last two months

939
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:21,920
Speaker 1: of ball, which is it's really funny for Ben Charrington

940
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:24,879
Speaker 1: to come out and say that, But so much can happen.

941
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:26,680
Speaker 1: It is hard to figure. But I think the Brewers

942
00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:29,319
Speaker 1: are going to be giving effort in this series, but

943
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:32,760
Speaker 1: not max effort. Yeah, they're gonna try just enough because

944
00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:36,360
Speaker 1: whoever pitches Friday, you could still whoever pitches this weekend.

945
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:37,840
Speaker 1: It lines up that they can still come back and

946
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:39,960
Speaker 1: pitch in the wild Card Series. So I think it

947
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:42,600
Speaker 1: makes sense for these guys to pitch a fine amount,

948
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:44,880
Speaker 1: stay on schedule, stay on task, stay hot, and not

949
00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:45,680
Speaker 1: blow it out.

950
00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:47,160
Speaker 2: You know, Yeah, no, totally. I don't think you can

951
00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:48,760
Speaker 2: see him, but he goes super deep into games unless

952
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:51,799
Speaker 2: the pitch count is low. Uh And yeah, I mean

953
00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:53,560
Speaker 2: that's that's pretty much it now. I do know, I've

954
00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:56,640
Speaker 2: I've heard, I've heard that Frankie Pepper's got a message

955
00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:59,279
Speaker 2: for us, because even even when there aren't games to

956
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:01,400
Speaker 2: talk about, he's still on top of his game. And

957
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 2: I know I tried to do a New York thing

958
00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:06,319
Speaker 2: with the chop cheese didn't work on Tuesday night. But

959
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:08,319
Speaker 2: I'm sure Frankie's got a little story to tell us.

960
00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:09,200
Speaker 2: So let's hear what he's got.

961
00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:12,040
Speaker 1: I got Frankie doing a doing a nice pot of

962
00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:14,480
Speaker 1: gravy next sauce because I think I think we had

963
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 1: to stay Italian when they were you went to New York,

964
00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 1: not Italian. I think that might have been a mistake here.

965
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:20,680
Speaker 1: So I don't even know what else to get Frankie.

966
00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:22,239
Speaker 1: I was, I was running out things, thinking I might

967
00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:23,480
Speaker 1: gi him some crowd. I was, I was dinta give

968
00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:25,279
Speaker 1: him catchatory, but I thought that was like, that was rude.

969
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:26,319
Speaker 1: So okay, we'll.

970
00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 2: We'll talk after we hear from him.

971
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:31,480
Speaker 1: Let's say, here's Frankie Peppers. Everybody, gentlemen, Frankie Peppers, how

972
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:31,960
Speaker 1: you doing?

973
00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,640
Speaker 6: I gotta suggest you for you if you ever.

974
00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 7: Need like lessons on how to screw something up as

975
00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:39,840
Speaker 7: much as possible, I think you should reach out to

976
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 7: the Braves int MLB because they did a fantastic job

977
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:46,600
Speaker 7: of handling this situation as poorly as possible.

978
00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:50,560
Speaker 6: Like I don't I don't understand.

979
00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:52,960
Speaker 2: What they were thinking.

980
00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:55,799
Speaker 6: I don't think anybody understands what they're thinking. I don't

981
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:58,239
Speaker 6: know if MLB understood what they were thinking, and I

982
00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:00,719
Speaker 6: don't know if the Braves ever understand what they think.

983
00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:03,080
Speaker 6: And like, you know, Braves, how much you like give

984
00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:05,120
Speaker 6: a contract worth more than like three dollars to a

985
00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:09,000
Speaker 6: player under the age of twenty and don't make them

986
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:12,560
Speaker 6: give one percent of the Atlanta Braves Foundation. But you know,

987
00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:15,640
Speaker 6: not a great loss. Yesterday didn't look too good, but

988
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:18,759
Speaker 6: we could have come back. That's what this team has done.

989
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,960
Speaker 6: Only here we control our own destiny going into Milwaukee.

990
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:25,480
Speaker 6: And you know that this team controls their own destiny

991
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:27,879
Speaker 6: right now, and they know they're gonna make it. I'll

992
00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:28,440
Speaker 6: talk to you soon.

993
00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:31,200
Speaker 2: She is boys is a great words to.

994
00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:33,560
Speaker 1: Fire us up. Thank you to Frankie Pevis for ending

995
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:35,160
Speaker 1: this podcast in the high note, because this is true.

996
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:37,279
Speaker 1: I let my emotions get the better of me in

997
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:39,080
Speaker 1: the last forty five minutes here. I've been angry all

998
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:40,600
Speaker 1: day because of this. Of course, with the Mets two

999
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:42,520
Speaker 1: controller on Dustney, we won't go into Milwaukee, we take

1000
00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:44,600
Speaker 1: care of business. Series against the Braves doesn't matter, and

1001
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:46,359
Speaker 1: it doesn't fucking matter. But I also want to throw

1002
00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:48,800
Speaker 1: you a chaos scenario that Jason Stark just tweeted. Oh gross,

1003
00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:52,080
Speaker 1: so this is horrifying. There is the max chaos scenario.

1004
00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:55,320
Speaker 1: Mets play Sunday in Milwaukee, double Heather Monday in Atlanta,

1005
00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:57,640
Speaker 1: the wild Card game Tuesday in San Diego. That's four

1006
00:40:57,680 --> 00:40:59,640
Speaker 1: games and fifty six hours in three different time zones.

1007
00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:02,480
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, that would be not fun. No, No, it

1008
00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:04,600
Speaker 2: wouldn't be fun at all. You know, you know what,

1009
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:06,400
Speaker 2: fuck it, it would be fun. You want to know why,

1010
00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 2: because we're in the playoffs. In the playoffs would be so

1011
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:11,880
Speaker 2: fucking fun. I want the chaos scenario. Give me it.

1012
00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:16,680
Speaker 1: Oh my god again, none of this fucking matters. That's

1013
00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:18,000
Speaker 1: the Mets. Go out there and take care of business,

1014
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:20,520
Speaker 1: just win games, reach the playoffs. This this Mets team

1015
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:21,759
Speaker 1: has set out for the last few months with a

1016
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:23,799
Speaker 1: goal in mind. That goal doesn't it's not even just

1017
00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:26,440
Speaker 1: making the playoffs. It's it's going through the playoffs. It's

1018
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:28,600
Speaker 1: winning playoff series. That's the thing that's pissed me off

1019
00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:30,279
Speaker 1: the most. But most about this, I'm losing track of

1020
00:41:30,280 --> 00:41:31,880
Speaker 1: a little bit of making the playoffs because I'm like this,

1021
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:35,560
Speaker 1: Possibly playing two hardcore double heather games on Monday could

1022
00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:37,640
Speaker 1: dramatically hurt our chance of moving on past that. But

1023
00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:40,200
Speaker 1: fuck it, that doesn't matter. Making the playoffs and matters.

1024
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:41,560
Speaker 1: You can't win a series of playoffs. You gon'll make

1025
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:43,160
Speaker 1: it their first. We have to do this year. We

1026
00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:44,560
Speaker 1: gotta take care of business. We gotta win this, and

1027
00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:47,520
Speaker 1: I'm I'm ready now. We've we've paused the war in

1028
00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:50,080
Speaker 1: Atlanta and we're marching north to Milwaukee. We're gonna take

1029
00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:50,840
Speaker 1: the war there.

1030
00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:54,239
Speaker 2: We're attacking those beer drinking cheeseheads. We're attacking them. We're

1031
00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:57,200
Speaker 2: storming the castle. We're ready to take over. Let's fucking

1032
00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:58,880
Speaker 2: go Mets. We got a couple of reviews here to

1033
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:01,400
Speaker 2: read as we wrap up. We've got one from JFK

1034
00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:04,440
Speaker 2: one exclamation point one he built this team in a

1035
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:07,520
Speaker 2: cave with sticks. I think that was a line from you,

1036
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:10,160
Speaker 2: which is yeah about David Stearns from rock bottom in

1037
00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:12,880
Speaker 2: Many in May to one of the most exciting and

1038
00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:15,080
Speaker 2: resilient seasons I've ever seen. You guys have put on

1039
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:17,399
Speaker 2: an incredible show the whole way. Thank you. Let's take

1040
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:18,880
Speaker 2: care of Atlanta and then you want to take the

1041
00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:20,000
Speaker 2: next one or you want me to just read it

1042
00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:22,440
Speaker 2: as well. Yeah, I'm so lowing up some all right,

1043
00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:25,319
Speaker 2: We've got damire part of the Mets Mets Up hive mind,

1044
00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:27,600
Speaker 2: one of the one of the bright the bright minds

1045
00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:29,960
Speaker 2: that we consult when we need to hear your guys

1046
00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:33,080
Speaker 2: opinions on a more in depth level. Great unique Mets content.

1047
00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:34,880
Speaker 2: I hate that James and Mark are so young, but

1048
00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:37,000
Speaker 2: what can I say? They know Mets ball better than

1049
00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:40,120
Speaker 2: anyone else. Highlights for me are, are you get to

1050
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:42,359
Speaker 2: learn about the development of both major and minor league

1051
00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:45,200
Speaker 2: players with actual data, support points and observations. If they

1052
00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:49,080
Speaker 2: also exemplify the emotional rollercoaster that each met fan embraces

1053
00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:52,279
Speaker 2: and goes through. I highly recommend watching and hearing da Mere.

1054
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:57,160
Speaker 2: Thank you, buddy, We appreciate you. James' final final thoughts

1055
00:42:57,160 --> 00:42:59,879
Speaker 2: as we wrap up this episode of there hasn't even

1056
00:42:59,880 --> 00:43:02,359
Speaker 2: been game. We did an episode and there hasn't been

1057
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:04,799
Speaker 2: anything that's happened besides canceling of games? What do you got?

1058
00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:07,120
Speaker 1: And there won't There won't be games for two more

1059
00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:08,759
Speaker 1: full days. There's a couple more reviews. You want to

1060
00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:11,200
Speaker 1: read them out? I found you haven't read. Now there's

1061
00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:12,440
Speaker 1: one here because it's about me, so I want to

1062
00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:14,239

00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:16,160
Speaker 1: one one three. This from Setember twelve. We haven't done

1064
00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:18,200
Speaker 1: reviews in a while. I held out Ryan's review for

1065
00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:19,880
Speaker 1: a while, but my hand has been forced. Thought this

1066
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:21,800
Speaker 1: was fixed. I heard again the most recent episode. I

1067
00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:23,440
Speaker 1: had to step in, James, I'm here to save you.

1068
00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:25,840
Speaker 1: Would you want to describe an event thats representative of

1069
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:28,799
Speaker 1: player or the team? The correct word this is emblematic,

1070
00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:31,680
Speaker 1: not enigmatics. Totally right. I every time that's supped out

1071
00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:33,120
Speaker 1: in my mouth, I was like, fuck, I just misspoke.

1072
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:36,360
Speaker 1: Enigmatic means mysterious, best of luck. Love the podcast. You

1073
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:38,040
Speaker 1: guys are great, So yeah, that's me. It's a hand

00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:40,319
Speaker 1: up on that one. And that's there's two other ones

1075
00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:41,920
Speaker 1: here we haven't read, but maybe we can save them.

1076
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:43,479
Speaker 1: One from Gavin and then one from Ryan.

1077
00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:46,000
Speaker 2: I'll tell you Gavin's gotten like three in already that

1078
00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:49,560
Speaker 2: Q and as it's Gavino, I know it is because

1079
00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:53,759
Speaker 2: he always says it in his reviews. Gavin appreciate you,

1080
00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:56,880
Speaker 2: but we've answered them already. You can read Ryan Stoops.

1081
00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:59,040
Speaker 2: I don't think we read Ryan Stoops this one.

1082
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:00,879
Speaker 1: Ryan, I feel bad. I'll see what you think about

Speaker 2: it explicit. We can't just get away with the nonsense.

1096
