Speaker 1: one oh eight. Yeah, we're getting We're getting deep. We're

4
00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 1: getting a lot of episodes out here. This is not

5
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 1: one of our happier episodes. I will say that a

6
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:22,880
Speaker 1: little bit of a tough series with the Miami Marlins,

7
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:25,840
Speaker 1: and of course it's we're looking ahead, We're looking ahead.

8
00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:27,520
Speaker 1: I feel like that's kind of what happened going into

9
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 1: this series as well. Everyone is looking ahead to this

10
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:32,640
Speaker 1: big three game series going up against the Atlanta Braves,

11
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:34,920
Speaker 1: and we are gonna talk about that series honestly for

12
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 1: a good chunk of this episode, because it is, without

13
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:39,839
Speaker 1: a doubt, the most important series that the Mets have

14
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:42,879
Speaker 1: played of the twenty twenty two season thus far. But

15
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:44,959
Speaker 1: we will still talk about what happened this weekend going

16
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,280
Speaker 1: up against the Miami Marlins, a big four game series.

17
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 1: We had Keith Hernandez Day, we got All Star game announcements.

18
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 1: Four Mets I made the All Star team, Jeff McNeil,

19
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:55,640
Speaker 1: pe Alonzo, Starling Marte, and Edwin Diaz. So we'll talk

20
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 1: about those guys a little bit too, and how great

21
00:00:57,280 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 1: their seasons have been as well as just kind of

22
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: wrap up the entire weird series against those pesky Miami

23
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:04,560

34
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 1: this this Marlin series? Bittersweet? It is a bittersweet one.

35
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 1: It's a weird.

36
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:36,600
Speaker 2: Sweet and it's just I don't know, it's a weird series,

37
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 2: Like I kind of especially coming right off this Sunday game,

38
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,760
Speaker 2: the extra endings being shut out against Sandy, Alkintara kind

39
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 2: of felt that this was gonna happen at least on Sunday,

40
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 2: and it's kind of hard to be a team three

41
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 2: times in a row before that. It's just still a weird,

42
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 2: so weird feeling coming off this series, especially with this

43
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 2: Brave series looming that we've had circled for a few

44
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 2: weeks now.

45
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 1: I think it's a really interesting time to be a

46
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 1: Met fan with everything that's been going on. Because you

47
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 1: can see them at split against the Marlins. You can

48
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 1: see the Braves have closed the gap in the National

49
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 1: League East to now one and a half games after

50
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 1: walking off the Nationals. And it's easy, i feel like,

51
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,239
Speaker 1: to fall into the trap of panic right Like, it's

52
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,239
Speaker 1: so easy to start being like the sky's falling right now.

53
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:16,640
Speaker 2: It's also easy to kind of be super super concerned

54
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 2: with the way you fall between division winner potential wildcard team.

55
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:22,519
Speaker 1: On this ripe day of July tenth.

56
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like, it's still a lot of games left in

57
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 2: the season, and as crazy as it is to say,

58
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 2: it's not like many of the games the Mets are

59
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 2: going to play the rest of the season against teams

60
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 2: not named the Atlanta Braves are especially significant just because

61
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,800
Speaker 2: there's fifteen games left against Atlanta and we've played eighty

62
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:43,119
Speaker 2: six games so quick math, that means we have seventy

63
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 2: seventy six remaining.

64
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 1: I don't know, you're the Ohio State guy. That's close.

65
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say it's close enough that could be wrong.

66
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 2: So, but it's roughly like almost twenty percent of the

67
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 2: games left are against Atlanta and we're only up in

68
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 2: them a game and a half in division. So whatever

69
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 2: you do against them is going to determine what the

70
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 2: end of the season's actually look like. So it's hard

71
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 2: to really be living and dying on these other ones. Yeah,

72
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:05,400
Speaker 2: it's crazy that it's to sound though, just because the

73
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:07,520
Speaker 2: way the schedule worked out, there's so many games left

74
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 2: against them. We only played four, there's fifteen left and

75
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 2: you're basically tied.

76
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:12,920
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean again, like we said at the end

77
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 1: of the episode, it was really really hard to not

78
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 1: look past the Marlins. And maybe that's a little bit

79
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 1: what happened too with this Mets team. Maybe maybe that's

80
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,800
Speaker 1: why the Bats were a little bit slow too. It's

81
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 1: hard not to be focused on the team that you're

82
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 1: competing for with the National League eeset division on the line,

83
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: when they're you know, just a few days ahead.

84
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, and also just looking back at this Marlin series,

85
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 2: like taking the full scope of it. If you look

86
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 2: at the four starting pitchers the Marlins had. You were

87
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 2: able to crush Daniel Castano, you were not able to

88
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 2: hit Pablo Lopez, You very frustratingly could not hit Braxton

89
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 2: Garrett but pulled the game out, and then you were

90
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 2: not able to hit Sandil Concera. So you're kind of

91
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 2: also seeing a little bit of a trend there that

92
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 2: the Mets have been going about for these last few weeks,

93
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 2: where it's a little bit harder to hit against the

94
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 2: better pitchers.

95
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean that's gonna happen too, like a guy

96
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,839
Speaker 1: like Sandy, of course makes sense. Pablo and Sandy, both

97
00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 1: of them have e raisin are three this year. I

98
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 1: think they're one of only six or seven teammates in

99
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 1: all baseball that era is under three. And I don't

100
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 1: know about you, but it also feels like, because of

101
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 1: how much we have played the Marlins recently, this is

102
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 1: just kind of it's Marlin fatigue. Ya, It's Marlin fatigue,

103
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: without a doubt, Like this is something that I feel

104
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 1: like you would just see happen with any teams. I

105
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,679
Speaker 1: mean you've seen some the Dodgers loss of the Pirates,

106
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: the Yankees loss to the Pirates, like they're just teams

107
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,599
Speaker 1: that will lose to lesser teams at points. And it

108
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 1: doesn't mean that the sky is falling. But is it

109
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 1: cause for concern? Maybe since June first, the Mets offensively

110
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 1: have been struggling a little bit. They haven't been as hot.

111
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 1: But as we have said on this podcast, that's just

112
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:33,280
Speaker 1: kind of gonna be this team. They are gonna be streaky,

113
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 1: especially when you do rely on contact.

114
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you're not really a team that has a

115
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 2: particular high barrel rate runs driven in.

116
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 1: By the home run.

117
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,360
Speaker 2: You're just less it's less of a not trustworthy is

118
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 2: not the word. It's a much less, much less stable offense.

119
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 2: It's part of the fine consistency when you're's a team

120
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 2: that kind of relies on contact singles and driving in

121
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 2: runs with runners in scoring positions, you have to string

122
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:53,599
Speaker 2: a lot of hits together.

123
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:54,920
Speaker 1: And that being said, it doesn't mean that the Mets

124
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: will have a good offense. I still think the Mets

125
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 1: do have a good offense. It's just you're gonna hit

126
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 1: these stretches like we did. I think it's more.

127
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 2: I think it's more like the Mets have like a

128
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 2: fifty fifth, sixtieth percentile offense rather than like the eighty

129
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:08,840
Speaker 2: fifth percentile offense they seem to be earlier in the year.

130
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 2: I think the Mets right now have a team wide

131
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 2: barrel rate either nineteenth or twentieth in the league, which

132
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 2: is if you look at all teams currently in the

133
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 2: postseason field, it's definitely towards the back of them.

134
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 1: It's not the worst the Padres, like twenty six. Yeah,

135
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 1: well the Padres. Yeah still use pen and paper, yeah

136
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 1: they do.

137
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,480
Speaker 2: But it's just we're going through these stretches. And when

138
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,279
Speaker 2: everything was going really well in April and May, we

139
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 2: cautioned Mets fans that this offense, while it was good

140
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 2: and while we still trusted it, did have the potential

141
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 2: to run dry. And right now we're in one of

142
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 2: those dry spells, and it's a little bit frustrating to watch, especially,

143
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 2: but it's gonna ebb and flow back the way baseball

144
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 2: season does. It's not this isn't out of the park baseball.

145
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 1: It's not MLB the show.

146
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 2: Things just do not go straight up or straight down.

147
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:46,839
Speaker 2: You just it abbs and flows' one hundred and sixty

148
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 2: two games, Like, how many seasons all you got seen

149
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 2: this together? I know like it doesn't just happen, it

150
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:51,720
Speaker 2: doesn't just go. It's like it's good in his band,

151
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,479
Speaker 2: it's good in his bet. It's never just regular.

152
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,839
Speaker 1: As we should know, the season is never won in May.

153
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:57,720
Speaker 1: It's never won in June, it's never won in July.

154
00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 1: It is always the full one to sixty to even

155
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 1: back to last year to talk about the Braves, they

156
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: were like one of the worst teams five hundred. Ye

157
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: they were not particularly great, and obviously they won the

158
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,680
Speaker 1: World Series. So the way you play in July, the

159
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:11,920
Speaker 1: way you play in June is by no means indicative

160
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:13,359
Speaker 1: of the kind of team that you're gonna finish with

161
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,480
Speaker 1: at the end of the year. I think what is positive, though,

162
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 1: is that the Mets are still twenty games about five hundred.

163
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:19,719
Speaker 1: To be that guy, I will I will be that guy,

164
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 1: because like the choke Mets narrative that is starting to

165
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: come back is a little bit frustrating because you're still

166
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 1: twenty games about five hundred. There's simply no choke. The

167
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,160
Speaker 1: Braves are just playing really really good baseball. Mets are

168
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 1: on pes to win one hundred games right now. Like

169
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,120
Speaker 1: if the Mets win ninety seven games and the Braves

170
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 1: win one hundred and one, is that a failure? No,

171
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 1: by no means that's a great season, Like, oh, you

172
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,160
Speaker 1: could have win four more. That's really really hard to win.

173
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,920
Speaker 2: Ared like last year with like the Rays, the Red

174
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,120
Speaker 2: Sox and the Yankees, or like last year the Dodgers

175
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,479
Speaker 2: and the Giants. Like these are hot division races. The

176
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 2: Mets and the Braves right now proven to be two

177
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 2: of the better teams in National League. This is not

178
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:54,840
Speaker 2: the National League Central. No, you have to actually win

179
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 2: baseball games and like try to win this division.

180
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 1: There's a lot of talent here. Well, even to tie

181
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 1: it back now to these Miami Marlins, this might be

182
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 1: Marlin's team even from that we saw, you know a

183
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 1: few weeks ago, is a better team than we've seen

184
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 1: in the past. Like they actually have competent ball players

185
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 1: at almost every single position, and the pitching is better

186
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 1: competent ball players at almost every single position. That's high praise.

187
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 1: I mean, like outside of playing the Mets, Brian de

188
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 1: la Cruz does nothing, but against the Mets, that guy

189
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:23,679
Speaker 1: becomes Honis Wagner. It's unbelievable. Why do you pick Honess

190
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 1: Wagner Because a lot of doubles, a lot of extra

191
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 1: bass hits. Honus Wagner feels like he pick something better.

192
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 1: I guess I gotta pick someone better than Larry Dobeer

193
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 1: Dobe Larry. Larry Adbey was a left handed hitter. I

194
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 1: won't pick Larry, he was left h I guess Honis

195
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 1: Wagner was a switch hitter. I think maybe the nineteen hundreds,

196
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 1: they might not have been doing switch hitting at that time.

197
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 1: How about a better hitter, even for the Marlins. Be

198
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,239
Speaker 1: a heretic if you were a switch hitter in nineteen

199
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 1: oh three, turns into John Carlos Stanton when he plays

200
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,560
Speaker 1: the Terry turns into kind of like Marlin's Christianeliy. Yeah,

201
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 1: Marlin's Christian. He just like is also lefty. So maybe

202
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 1: strike that one's yeah, you're loving ma lefties that I

203
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 1: throw him out there. It was just this series first off,

204
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,239
Speaker 1: four games is always long. A slog is always a slog,

205
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 1: and against the Marlins team who outside of Game one,

206
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 1: fought every single game, kept every single game close, there's

207
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 1: just annoying. They're so annoying, whether it's Joan Birdy or

208
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 1: Brian de la Cruz or even Hazus agular guys have

209
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,080
Speaker 1: good at Anthony Bass, Joey Wendel Cole. I mean, I

210
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 1: actually only think it was Tanner Scott, Like, I mean

211
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 1: Tanna Scott made the off of play game three. Of course,

212
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 1: Anthony Bass had the Mets bad pun fishing. I'll see, God,

213
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 1: that was easy. That was easy that it was on

214
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 1: the tea for you there. Yeah, but I mean, let's

215
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:32,640
Speaker 1: let's start off with game one here, because you run

216
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 1: through a quick Mets win this game very easily. It

217
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 1: was probably the most stress free Mets game that I

218
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 1: can remember in recent history. Just from start to finish,

219
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 1: it felt like the Mets were completely in control, and

220
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,600
Speaker 1: there was I recorded a YouTube video during this game

221
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:48,960
Speaker 1: because I was like, Wow, the Mets won, it's over.

222
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 1: We don't got worry about anything. I turned it off

223
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 1: and watched The Stranger Things finale, which I heard Stranger Things.

224
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not a Stranger's Things guys. It's quality television.

225
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: I think it's good. I watched it in college.

226
00:08:58,280 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 2: I remember cause the first time he came out like

227
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 2: really have the much pub Yeah, And it wasn't really,

228
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:04,960
Speaker 2: it just like happened, and they like did a really

229
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 2: good job. Of like it was kind of like TikTok

230
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 2: before TikTok where they revealed a little bit of something

231
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,079
Speaker 2: at the beginning and kept you locked in all the

232
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 2: way until the end. So it was just like this

233
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 2: like crazy occurrence. I remember being in like my hot

234
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 2: college apartment with like three of my friends. We sat

235
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:19,680
Speaker 2: down like it was like August. We sat down like

236
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,440
Speaker 2: one o'clock and we didn't move. We watched the entire

237
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,080
Speaker 2: thing like in one day. That's well, that's the sign

238
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 2: of a good show exactly. But like since then, it's

239
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 2: kind of become like it's in a good quality televisionhow

240
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:29,559
Speaker 2: it's like he has a nostalgia factor.

241
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 1: About to say that big nostalgia show, and it just has.

242
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 2: That element of it to always holds you until the end,

243
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:36,760
Speaker 2: which is good good TV. But also yeah, but it

244
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:38,319
Speaker 2: was a good relaxing when mets wing ten. Nothing in

245
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:39,839
Speaker 2: the fifty can do something else with your night.

246
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 1: I do think that the Kid and Strangers things again,

247
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 1: because I've never watched an episode. The kid who's got

248
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:45,440
Speaker 1: the curly hair, do you know what his name is?

249
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 1: Gattin mattin Zarro. I think he does have something like that.

250
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 1: I believe he's a Mets fan, like percent come on

251
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 1: the show. Yeah, anytime he wants, he can appear on

252
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,240
Speaker 1: the Mets the podcast. Also, my wife Doja Cats has

253
00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 1: tried to slide into the new breakout start Eddiemunson's DM,

254
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,640
Speaker 1: which I thought was pretty cool, nice, okay, shouts of strangers,

255
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 1: things cast. But where I was going with this, I

256
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 1: saw TikTok that was funny because again never saw the show,

257
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 1: didn't realize that he was like a funny character on

258
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,439
Speaker 1: the show. He's hilarious, he looks funny. He does a

259
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,320
Speaker 1: lot of like it seems like off the cuff, like

260
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,680
Speaker 1: just a little improv. That's the acting word about improv

261
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:18,120
Speaker 1: on the show.

262
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,439
Speaker 2: He's a character. But again, metsro winning ten nothing. You

263
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 2: can do something else with your evening, whether it be

264
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 2: watch a show or make a show.

265
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, we record a YouTube video actually do my job

266
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 1: for one. There you go. Must be nice.

267
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 2: But the Mets ney of the game like this because

268
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:32,560
Speaker 2: and now people are on edge again. But coming into

269
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:34,160
Speaker 2: the series, people were on edge. Shows like you can

270
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 2: win ten nothing, you can deal with it. And with

271
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 2: the Mets ballpen was also a little bit tacked with

272
00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,520
Speaker 2: no off day, so just having Trevor Williams and the

273
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 2: now recently DFA J Greed which is upsetting, but control

274
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 2: all night and ex This game was nice and also cool.

275
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 1: The bomb and the other woke up.

276
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,199
Speaker 2: Six through nine hit there is Canada McNeil JD and

277
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 2: Big Hit Jim, who's now also on the head to

278
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 2: the il probably extended period of time with an oblique issue.

279
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 2: They combined for seven hits, eight run scored, a RBIs

280
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 2: and six hard hit balls in the game.

281
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 1: And this game kind of shows you, I think a

282
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 1: little bit of an outlook of what the Mets team

283
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 1: could look like if we do get production out of

284
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 1: that seven eight nine, because I do think like games,

285
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 1: and we were a lot of in the beginning of

286
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 1: the year. Yeah, we were a lot beginning of the year.

287
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:14,559
Speaker 1: But like these last three games of this series, you

288
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 1: specially especially felt like guys like Escobar, Nido do your make,

289
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:20,760
Speaker 1: whoever's catching, whoever's hitting in those spots, came up with

290
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,320
Speaker 1: runners in the scoring position in big spots and couldn't

291
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,560
Speaker 1: drive it in and in this game they did, and

292
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:27,679
Speaker 1: you see the offense is fine then, but that's why

293
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,160
Speaker 1: it is like so important. One through nine everybody does

294
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 1: have to make an impact regardless of what you do,

295
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 1: you know, defensively on the field, even absolutely j D.

296
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:36,199
Speaker 1: Davis his first career grand slam.

297
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,840
Speaker 2: James mcann hit through run home run, and JD was

298
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 2: the twelfth player in Mets history. They hit a Grand

299
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 2: Slam from the eighth spot in the lineup, which is

300
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 2: a little bit weird because that used to be a

301
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 2: spot where you could just avoid the eight hit h

302
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 2: So that's why I guess there's so few.

303
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 1: Relatively, I feel like there was also.

304
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 2: Just a major Grand Slam dry spell for the Mets

305
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 2: in our childhood.

306
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 1: Oh first, like every five years. I like feel like

307
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 1: I remember Robin Ventor hitting Grand slams. I remember Cliff

308
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,120
Speaker 1: Floyd hitting a Grand Slam. I remember right right hitting

309
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 1: one or two. I remember Fernando Tatis actually had one

310
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,600
Speaker 1: senior Yeah, and then otherwise I don't think I could

311
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 1: name one. Scott Harrison had one. Scott Harrison Harriston. Harriston

312
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 1: feels like a guy who would just have a sneaky

313
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 1: grant to them.

314
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 2: Sure, and like Davis each had one or two Yeah,

315
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 2: based on the law of average.

316
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,840
Speaker 1: Like Jacob's. Maybe maybe now we're just naming random Mets players.

317
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:22,920
Speaker 1: All right, two more random Mets players that we can name,

318
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: ohmar Keinzania, Eric Vaalent, Oh, that's a good one, man, Eric.

319
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 1: Josh Smoker. We saw Josh Smoker jersey at the stadium

320
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,440
Speaker 1: Friday night on Friday, which is one of my two

321
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 1: craziest ones. I saw, I saw Josh Smoker. Well, we

322
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 1: saw Josh Smoker and I saw Chris Flexen jersey. It

323
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 1: wasn't like a oh, this is a game warn Both

324
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 1: of these were designed, chosen, picked out, hand picked Josh

325
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,559
Speaker 1: Smoker and Chris Flexen jerseys, guys who might have made

326
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:49,960
Speaker 1: a combined total of under one hundred appearances for the Mets.

327
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,280
Speaker 1: Josh Edgen. Josh Egen's another good one. There's a lot

328
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 1: of random josh is on Josh Saddin all right, Josh,

329
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 1: Now we're getting carried away. Two men's on.

330
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 2: Trevor Williams and I will move on here. But very

331
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:00,880
Speaker 2: good star from Trevor and which might be his last

332
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 2: turn through the rotation. Seven innings, seven strikeouts, no earned runs,

333
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 2: only the third time his entire career he's completed seven

334
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 2: innings allowing an earned run, and he hadn't done it

335
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:13,319
Speaker 2: since August eleven, twenty eighteen, and the first time he's

336
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 2: ever done it with no walks.

337
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 1: Okay, Trevor Williams. I mean he was in control that

338
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 1: bad absolutely and something to keeping track of because Trevor

339
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 1: Williams might move to the ballpen. He was throwing more

340
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:21,839
Speaker 1: sliders in this game.

341
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:24,560
Speaker 2: Got seven wifs on eleven swings with it through the

342
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 2: season high twenty three percent of the time. Fourth straight

343
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:29,720
Speaker 2: appearance where he's increased his slyther usage after not throwing

344
00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 2: it for three consecutive starts.

345
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,720
Speaker 1: Yep, it was a good win. Bats were swinging and

346
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:35,600
Speaker 1: that's pretty much it for the bats the rest of

347
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:39,319
Speaker 1: this series. Game two, can't hit again. Noah was absolute

348
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 1: hell watching this, guess was a bad, bad watch. Well.

349
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 1: First off, our friend Ernie we went to the game with.

350
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 1: He's a Marlins fan. Love Jonathan VR, Loves Jonathan VR.

351
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,200
Speaker 1: What a jinx that guy. We've went to like three

352
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:51,960
Speaker 1: games with him this year and lost them all, lost

353
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 1: them all. So for you guys at home, we were

354
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,200
Speaker 1: listening in for the sake of the New York Mets.

355
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 1: We will not be attending games with Ernie the rest

356
00:13:58,600 --> 00:13:59,520
Speaker 1: of the year. I don't want to.

357
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 2: We can't do it, can't do it for the good

358
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 2: of the team unless he like has to do something else.

359
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:04,440
Speaker 2: Maybe we can get a stat like when he wears

360
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:06,280
Speaker 2: his Mets stuff versus when he wears his Marlins stef yah.

361
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 1: Maybe yeah, because he does have a black luisk your majorsey.

362
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 1: He's like, which is a piece. He's a sneak and

363
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 1: a blue Jonathan Vr. Yes, he's a sneaky Mets fan.

364
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 1: Like we're kind of trying to get him. But against

365
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 1: the Marlins, it's tough, and it was tough. Pabul Lopez

366
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 1: was good. The changeup command was unbelievable.

367
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Lopez just like his hit liable pitches his

368
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:25,160
Speaker 2: fastball and the Mets weren't really hitting it and he

369
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 2: also wasn't really throwing it that much. And this game

370
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 2: just was stuck it to the one like forever because

371
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 2: Mets killer Brian dela Cruz got the first Marlins RBI

372
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 2: with his first of three doubles in the game, made

373
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 2: the one nothing Nemo hit allowed home runs the co

374
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 2: Cola corn and make it won one, and then Wendel

375
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 2: his sacrificed fly after Brian de la Cruz hit his

376
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 2: second double of the game, scored on that. But like

377
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,120
Speaker 2: Chris Bassett was very good in this one. He went

378
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 2: to Pablo Lopez, and I think those guys are kind

379
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 2: of contemporaries in the National League in terms of like

380
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 2: how they great. I probably say Lopez is a bit better,

381
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:58,240
Speaker 2: but Bassett maybe like avoids the blow up more effectively

382
00:14:58,240 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 2: than Lopez does.

383
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're both. I would say, like pesky, little grittier

384
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 1: pictures ghost they'll the stuff doesn't really pop out at you.

385
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 1: But not throw ninety nine. No, not even throwing ninety six.

386
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 2: But Baskett went six and thirty and he's tried to

387
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 2: nurse him through the seventh. Talk about that in a second.

388
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 2: Gave up six hits, kind of scattered them around. He

389
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 2: seemed like in control even though they were always men

390
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:17,360
Speaker 2: on base.

391
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 1: It was just good.

392
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:23,000
Speaker 2: Chris Basst star to earn no walks three strikeouts, only

393
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 2: second time in Basst's entire career he didn't walk a

394
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 2: bathering consecutive starts.

395
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 1: Shout out John for that one. And something I wanted

396
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 1: to shout out about Bassett that I saw especially in

397
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,080
Speaker 1: this game was his slitherer, which has been a very

398
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 1: new development. For him this year.

399
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 2: It's always been one of his better pitches in terms

400
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:39,440
Speaker 2: of movements, better than the league average horizontal movement and

401
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 2: vertical break, so that's like movement to the side and

402
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,280
Speaker 2: movement down kind of called slide and drop.

403
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:45,160
Speaker 1: I like call like that.

404
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 2: Sometimes he's throwing it significantly more than he's ever had

405
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 2: nearly twenty percent usage rate so far this year. That

406
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 2: was only ten percent last year, in just three percent

407
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 2: two years ago. So it's basically a pitch that he's

408
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 2: developed since he reinvented himself after his litany of arm

409
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 2: injuries about five or six years ago. And it's been

410
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 2: his best swinging mispitch this year with a thirty two

411
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 2: percent with freight, and it was his most thrown pitch

412
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:08,160
Speaker 2: on Friday, first time as a met he's ever done that.

413
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 2: So this is a cool new development for Bassett, Who's

414
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 2: a guy who I've heard interviews between him and pitching

415
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,720
Speaker 2: guru from the Athletic Ineno Saras. He likes his offspeed

416
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 2: pitches and recognize it that they are probably the most effective,

417
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 2: but says that he fears that they will become less

418
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:24,960
Speaker 2: effective the more he throws them. He likes to work

419
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 2: off the fastball and sinker and mix in his slider

420
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 2: and also his curveball, which I think is probably based

421
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:32,520
Speaker 2: on movements statistically, maybe his best pitch slider might be

422
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 2: better now. But I think it was cool to hear

423
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 2: him say that. But now this year, seeing bastard throwing

424
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,760
Speaker 2: that slider of twenty percent of the time and seeing

425
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 2: him throw that curve ball also more than he ever

426
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 2: has his career up also getting near twenty percent, So

427
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 2: maybe there is an adjustment by Bassett. Maybe this is

428
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 2: a little bit Jeremy Hefsner, but seeing him throw those

429
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:50,280
Speaker 2: two pitches more is cool.

430
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 1: Yeah. No, I mean he pitched a great game again

431
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 1: coming off the covid il. It's unfortunate that in the

432
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 1: seventh that's kind of when they got to him the

433
00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 1: third double from Brian de la Cruz, because that guy,

434
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,320
Speaker 1: he's new ratnl umber one. Oh my god, he's the

435
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 1: most he's the most recent rat. Yeah he's yeah, he's

436
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 1: the most recent rat. And he just he showed up

437
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 1: again this series. He has like a negative war on

438
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:09,399
Speaker 1: the year, and I can only imagine what would be

439
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:10,680
Speaker 1: if he didn't play the Mets. It would probably be

440
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 1: like negative four you might not still be around, he

441
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,920
Speaker 1: might playing, the might not be at the major league level.

442
00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:18,720
Speaker 1: Oh god. Trew Smith though got us out of that jam.

443
00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:20,760
Speaker 1: But then in the eighth came in for a second

444
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:22,919
Speaker 1: inning and up down and he just he gave up

445
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 1: a home run on a hanging slider to Garrett Cooper.

446
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,640
Speaker 1: Garrett Cooper is a really underrated hitter in Major League baseball.

447
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,800
Speaker 1: Doesn't have crazy power numbers despite his size. But you

448
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:32,399
Speaker 1: watch this guy hit and he's a good hitter. It's

449
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:33,640
Speaker 1: because where he plays. That's true.

450
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, playing Garrett Cooper played in Cincinnati, he'd be for

451
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:36,920
Speaker 2: the home run guy.

452
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean a mirror you hit. Playing in Cincinnati,

453
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,679
Speaker 1: we hit twenty five. I think Albert Amra has a

454
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,119
Speaker 1: home run in Cincinnati. We were also sitting pretty close

455
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 1: to Garrett Cooper's wife. Oh she was so excited for

456
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 1: this home run. Oh my god. We were like who's screaming?

457
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 1: Like where is this coming from? Like the only Marlins

458
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:54,920
Speaker 1: fan in the stadium should be the guy that we're

459
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,440
Speaker 1: sitting next to. INNY it got a turn from every

460
00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:00,239
Speaker 1: single person in our section were like who is that?

461
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,639
Speaker 1: And then like we saw her cross examined Instagram, Like,

462
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:05,200
Speaker 1: all right, that's Garat Cooper's wife. She has good reason

463
00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 1: to be a little excited. It's stunk to hear it though. Yeah,

464
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 1: just because she was had a good reason didn't mean

465
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:13,160
Speaker 1: I like it. I would love for a little silence. Also,

466
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:14,959
Speaker 1: a wonky home run. He just kind of got the

467
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 1: ball and sent it out the other way, strong dude,

468
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 1: Like inside that the hanging slider is right handed? Hi,

469
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 1: there out of the city field to right field. I

470
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,480
Speaker 1: saw something where Drew Smith after that game, like eleven

471
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,680
Speaker 1: of his twelve runs he'd given up the this year

472
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,200
Speaker 1: have been due to the long ball. He's still got

473
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 1: great stuff. It looked like, I mean that pitch hung,

474
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:33,440
Speaker 1: So just like maybe a command thing. And Drew Smith

475
00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,639
Speaker 1: is still I think, figuring out exactly how he wants

476
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:38,119
Speaker 1: to pitch a little bit, because we know all his

477
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,439
Speaker 1: stuff is really good. So this isn't a question of

478
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 1: whether or not Drew Smith is good or not. I

479
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 1: think it might just be like a slight adjustment needs

480
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:44,400
Speaker 1: to be made.

481
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,119
Speaker 2: Also, adjustment probably also needs to be made for us

482
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:47,440
Speaker 2: because we annoyed to Drew Smith is like one of

483
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:49,639
Speaker 2: the best relievers in baseball. He's probably more like this

484
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:51,720
Speaker 2: like two eight between like two eight and three five.

485
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 1: Al Right, relieve excited. Jane Better twenty games about five hundred.

486
00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:58,720
Speaker 1: We excited. He was cool, he's fun.

487
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,359
Speaker 2: But wrap this game up because it was kind of

488
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,760
Speaker 2: cash after this, Lindora the home run the eighth, we

489
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 2: got some life. We had a hitless rally with McNeil

490
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 2: getting hit by a pitch, Canada walking and j D walking.

491
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 2: Aescbar came up with Steven Okerr, who has really good stuff,

492
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 2: very good slider and fastball out of life from the

493
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 2: left side, had him on the ropes two well, Ascobar

494
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,080
Speaker 2: phil Cuzy gave him a gift with a pitch that

495
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 2: was an inch and a half off the plate.

496
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 1: Phil Couzy was horrible, you know, like the umpire scorecard

497
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 1: that comes up after the game on Twitter, that call

498
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 1: and the one two was it Nimo in the ninth Remember,

499
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 1: we're like where was that? Yeah, two horrendously bad misses

500
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 1: where they were a good inch inch and a half

501
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:38,400
Speaker 1: off the plate. And I think, if you're at Warro Escobar,

502
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:40,880
Speaker 1: you still needed you still relatively need to come through there.

503
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,160
Speaker 1: I don't think that's like, yeah, huge, but it did

504
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:46,080
Speaker 1: completely change the bat and just for like a former

505
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 1: player's perspective, Todd zeal On s and Y was going

506
00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 1: off about it. He was not happy you said that

507
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:51,960
Speaker 1: call screwed him. You know, you go three to oh

508
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,399
Speaker 1: to two to one, it changes everything everything. You're in

509
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 1: the drive. You're still in the driver's seat. But now

510
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 1: that you saw that pitch was called to strike, it

511
00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:00,240
Speaker 1: forced Edwardo Escobar to swing at the two one pitch

512
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:02,239
Speaker 1: that was on the corner. Popped it up a little bit.

513
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,280
Speaker 1: A little baseball debate here. I don't think two ones

514
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 1: a driver's seat, two ones in neutral seven, I don't

515
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:09,680
Speaker 1: know it as a hitter. I think two to one

516
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,119
Speaker 1: you still relatively are ahead. I think it's like more

517
00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:13,720
Speaker 1: of a your little head. I wouldn't call it the

518
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:15,880
Speaker 1: driver's seat. Fine, yeah, I wouldn't call it the driver's seat.

519
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,920
Speaker 1: That's your two balls to a walk. Well was the

520
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:21,720
Speaker 1: driver's seat, okay? Yeah? Yeah? Two one a little less.

521
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:23,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're you're in the range of being ahead or

522
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,240
Speaker 2: just like being right there with two strikes, but also

523
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:28,320
Speaker 2: from the right side. It was kind disappointing not to

524
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:30,639
Speaker 2: see Escobar come through there. Just he's coming up so

525
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 2: often the men on base, and it's really stacking up

526
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,040
Speaker 2: against them things to start a snowball, and I hope

527
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 2: he gets hot suit.

528
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 1: It's a feather consummet pro still. But I talked about

529
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 1: this with you at the game, and I'll share it

530
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,960
Speaker 1: with the viewers now too, where the listeners that having

531
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,200
Speaker 1: a guy like Kenna and McNeil and those guys get

532
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,000
Speaker 1: on base among some of the best in all of

533
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 1: baseball right now over three fifty three six they're like

534
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,360
Speaker 1: both I think sitting in the three seventy three eighty

535
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 1: spot right now. So for a guy like Escobar who's

536
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 1: hitting seventh or eighth, those guys get on base forty

537
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:57,880
Speaker 1: percent of the time that they get to the plate.

538
00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:01,880
Speaker 1: He's just simply gonna be in more scenarios where he's

539
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:03,960
Speaker 1: gonna have guys on base in front of him just

540
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:06,399
Speaker 1: because they are really good at it. And I don't

541
00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:09,520
Speaker 1: really know what the fix is. It's this is like

542
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,520
Speaker 1: a weird, awkward problem that you kind of sometimes run

543
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,679
Speaker 1: into with like modern baseball in the way that you

544
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 1: build lineups and that you really do try to get

545
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,879
Speaker 1: guys to get on base a ton, so that these

546
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:21,200
Speaker 1: guys didn't get on base and if you have a

547
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 1: guy hitting like two twenty like Escobar unfortunately is right now,

548
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,280
Speaker 1: it's really hard to figure out how to get those

549
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 1: runs in. Maybe peachit at seventh. No, like that's like

550
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:32,200
Speaker 1: the no, I know you're joking, but that's like also

551
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:35,399
Speaker 1: like this just it's so complicated baseball figuring out how

552
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 1: to actually make a lineup work.

553
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 2: And there were also two weird caveat stats about this

554
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:41,440
Speaker 2: game that kind of echo your point. First off, the

555
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:43,680
Speaker 2: Mets didn'thit single in this game. They had I think

556
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:45,879
Speaker 2: seven hits and they were all for extra bases.

557
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 1: Which that's big, big for the old guys they sing.

558
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:51,119
Speaker 2: But it was weird because it's a whole year the

559
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,640
Speaker 2: Mets have just hit singles incessantly. One of the lowest

560
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:55,439
Speaker 2: extra base hit rates in all of baseball was one

561
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,600
Speaker 2: of the again bottom twelve ballot rates in the whole league

562
00:21:57,680 --> 00:21:59,480
Speaker 2: right now, So weird they couldn't have one single. And

563
00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 2: also in this game, all the hitters in the Mets

564
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 2: lineup one through four had two hard hit balls. Yeah,

565
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 2: so I mean just like all the hitters five through

566
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:08,960
Speaker 2: nine one total. Yeah, it actually was byaskebar, not a

567
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 2: lot of hard hit balls.

568
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:12,280
Speaker 1: They weren't. They weren't. It happened sometimes we've spent a

569
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 1: lot now. In game two they lost it's stuff to whatever.

570
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:16,680
Speaker 1: That was awful. Game three, though, this is a cool

571
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 1: one because Keith Keith Hernandez got his jersey number retired

572
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 1: out in the blazing sun. Oh my god, it was hot.

573
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 1: A scorcher. Now. I don't mean to get a little

574
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,200
Speaker 1: too intimate here with you guys, but we sat down

575
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 1: in our seats and immediately got I was moist, I

576
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,840
Speaker 1: was wet. Shout out to everyone working in a city

577
00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 1: field because there were it seemed like a lot of

578
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,199
Speaker 1: people because this was a big day, especially for the

579
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 1: older generation. Definitely, it was very hot. People were in.

580
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:43,440
Speaker 2: Their seats early in the sun for a good amount

581
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 2: of time before this game began. So shout out all

582
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:47,960
Speaker 2: the city field you know, workers and stuff there for

583
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,720
Speaker 2: getting waters ready, serving everybody that day. We saw a

584
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 2: couple of people down with in the infirmary. Very very

585
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:55,960
Speaker 2: good to see everyone. You're working hard, keeping everyone healthy.

586
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely had to get some cool air, even us.

587
00:22:57,760 --> 00:22:59,639
Speaker 1: We like, we left the seats. Everyone's walkers, like I

588
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:02,280
Speaker 1: shaded ha c. It was a hot one. It was

589
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 1: really cool to see Keith Guy's number retired. It seemed

590
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:07,240
Speaker 1: like he was really happy, really proud, cool to see

591
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:09,520
Speaker 1: his whole family. Yeah, meant a lot to him. It

592
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 1: seemed like, which is nice. I mean, you kind of

593
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 1: knew that was gonna be the way it was.

594
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:16,040
Speaker 2: Absolutely, Keith her Nandaz deserves this. Keith Nandaz, while he

595
00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:18,920
Speaker 2: an't spend very much time with the Mets, was monumentally

596
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 2: important for bringing them from a team that was a

597
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:24,520
Speaker 2: perpetual loser to a team that was got to the

598
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,919
Speaker 2: doorstep of winning a World Series, won a World Series,

599
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:28,679
Speaker 2: and then had a little bit of a nice litt.

600
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:30,640
Speaker 1: Run in the eighties. Yeah, No, Keith obviously as only

601
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:32,640
Speaker 1: there for a team, as he said, was very green. Yeah,

602
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:34,919
Speaker 1: which is such an old guy statement. Keith was dropping

603
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:36,720
Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of sayings where he was

604
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,720
Speaker 1: just I was like, man, if if I wasn't well

605
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 1: versed in the old baseball isms, I'd have no clue

606
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:45,000
Speaker 1: what you're talking about, right, translated Keith Sometimes, but who

607
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 1: else was their? Piazza was there? Mookie was there, got

608
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 1: a big official lynch and Yeah, a lot of a

609
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 1: lot of the older generation of players carrying ron of course,

610
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,080
Speaker 1: sitting with their buddy. Howie did a great job. I

611
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:56,879
Speaker 1: always did. I love that how he is called the

612
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 1: Master of Ceremonies deserves it that. I don't know if

613
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 1: that's a real time or not, or if that's just

614
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,439
Speaker 1: something that they like joke about, but I think it's awesome.

615
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:04,480
Speaker 1: Master of ceremonies.

616
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:06,080
Speaker 2: And he's such a good MC at these events. I

617
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,800
Speaker 2: remember him from sever the event opening day. He's just

618
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:10,560
Speaker 2: so smooth on the mic, and we know that from

619
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:11,560
Speaker 2: listening to Howe in the radio.

620
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 1: All these all the.

621
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:15,159
Speaker 2: Best He's able to like run through rescript and still

622
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:17,240
Speaker 2: add like his own like how we panache to all

623
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 2: these lines.

624
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:20,480
Speaker 1: It's fantastic. It is hard to read, as we know

625
00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 1: read lines and kind of get a little personality behind it.

626
00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:25,919
Speaker 1: He's obviously one of the best in the business to

627
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,560
Speaker 1: do it, so that's that's no surprise. Also loved that

628
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 1: he threw it a little bit that if if there's

629
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 1: if everything's right in the world, Keith, this will be

630
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,720
Speaker 1: in Cooper's down, which I'm all for it. Keith has

631
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:36,840
Speaker 1: a legitimate argument.

632
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 2: If you look at his black ink on Baseball Reference

633
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:40,439
Speaker 2: or his Jaws rating, he's right in there a lot

634
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:41,680
Speaker 2: of the guys who are in the Hall of Fame

635
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:44,280
Speaker 2: and the only player ever who I believe has eleven

636
00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:45,880
Speaker 2: straight Gold gloves not to be in the Hall of Fame.

637
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 1: Interesting, Yeah, it's it's just at that weird position of

638
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 1: first base. But he still was the best. Was it

639
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 1: Mike Piazza's story he said they were working on bunting

640
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 1: practice with the Dodgers, right, yeah, but that's funny too. Yeah,

641
00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:00,479
Speaker 1: that's Mike Piaza. Isn't bunting practice? Imagine how backward baseball

642
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:02,760
Speaker 1: was having Mike Piazza practice Bunch Tommy the story that

643
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:05,720
Speaker 1: probably would run the drill to be fair, you see

644
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:07,879
Speaker 1: that too with some prospects now, like I'm looking at

645
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 1: some MLB draft guys as we have the MLB Draft

646
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:11,600
Speaker 1: coming up, which would be fun to talk about. Let

647
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:12,919
Speaker 1: me know if you guys want to hear about that.

648
00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:16,560
Speaker 1: I'm the maybe next episode or so. But to see

649
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:18,879
Speaker 1: a guy like Drew Jones, who is the consensus number

650
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 1: one pick or top player in the draft on all

651
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,720
Speaker 1: the videos of him hitting, he starts off by laying

652
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:26,200
Speaker 1: down two bunts and Michael whoever the coaches that makes

653
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,280
Speaker 1: him bunch should be fired. He shouldn't be allowed to

654
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,199
Speaker 1: be around children that are playing youth baseball. Why are

655
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 1: we teaching him out a bunt? Swinging swing the bat? Oh? Yeah.

656
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:36,520
Speaker 1: To finish the story, Mike Piazza was talking about doing

657
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 1: bunting practice. Someone laid down a bad bunt, and I

658
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 1: guess the coach or whoever was doing it was saying

659
00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:43,359
Speaker 1: that Hernandez would have turned two on that bunch. Yeah, so,

660
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:44,080
Speaker 1: which is cool?

661
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 2: Like Keith Nanda's is the greatest defensive first basement of

662
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:49,119
Speaker 2: all time. However important you think that is. Watching the

663
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 2: old videos of keithan Nander's play first, you realize it

664
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 2: was a different animal like him playing first base.

665
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,360
Speaker 1: I always think of that play where he charges throws

666
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,800
Speaker 1: it to third. Gary Carter's at third throws it to first.

667
00:25:57,840 --> 00:25:59,320
Speaker 1: Like that's one of the sickest plays of first base

668
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:01,000
Speaker 1: was ever made. This that was cool in the In

669
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:03,560
Speaker 1: the eighty sixth documentary at thirty for thirty and the

670
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,399
Speaker 1: Mets paid a little homage on the field as well.

671
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:09,120
Speaker 1: Because Pete Alonzo, first baseman of the New York Mets,

672
00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:10,960
Speaker 1: you guys might be familiar with the polar Bear. I'm

673
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:13,120
Speaker 1: not sure if you are or not. But he wore

674
00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 1: he had it, or I shouldn't say he wore because

675
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:16,919
Speaker 1: he grew one. He's a man, he's an adult. He

676
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:18,960
Speaker 1: grew a mustache. It was faint, it was. It was

677
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,160
Speaker 1: a little faint, but it was. It was a mustache.

678
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,920
Speaker 1: It was noticeable, had a mustache. I don't know how

679
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 1: he got the sidebirds. That's the one I don't understand

680
00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:29,240
Speaker 1: is did he grow sideburns overnight? Because he had some chops.

681
00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 1: And he also wore stirrups yep as somach to Keith,

682
00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:33,720
Speaker 1: So I like that. That was cool. And he got

683
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:35,680
Speaker 1: off his own schneid with a home run. First home

684
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:37,240
Speaker 1: run I believe it was twelve games. Yeah, And I

685
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:38,920
Speaker 1: don't think he had an RBI in ten games prior

686
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:39,240
Speaker 1: to that.

687
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:41,399
Speaker 2: Sole or something like that, something like that, since that

688
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 2: last series against the Marlins two weeks ago.

689
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,320
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean this this game was hectic. Two. It

690
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:49,400
Speaker 1: was tight. John Birdie leadof double. It started off crazy.

691
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,480
Speaker 2: Weird first inning play though, where Birdie was on third,

692
00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:53,720
Speaker 2: Garret Cooper was on first after walk wild pitch and

693
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:56,119
Speaker 2: Histerer's aguilar was up ground. In two it would have

694
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:59,720
Speaker 2: been a double play, but hissers Aguilar, he walks around.

695
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,119
Speaker 2: He's greg gregarious, is how we called him this morning

696
00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,840
Speaker 2: on the broadcast Sunday during Sunday morning during Sunday afternoons game,

697
00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 2: he just starts talking up the first base line. All

698
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 2: of a sudden, the Empire ran out, called him to

699
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,159
Speaker 2: first base and put Birdie back on third because it

700
00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:14,960
Speaker 2: was catchers interference. So rather than two outs and a

701
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 2: run scoring two outs nobody on, we had Basis loaded

702
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 2: for Carrasco with nobody out. Yeah, and the boy got

703
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:23,639
Speaker 2: through it struck out hay Su Sanchez got Avid Garcia

704
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:25,439
Speaker 2: the ground into a very pretty double play by our

705
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:27,680
Speaker 2: wonderful double play contingency up the middle.

706
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,040
Speaker 1: I believe, as the kids say, ball don't lie, Ball

707
00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:32,200
Speaker 1: don't lie, Ball don't lie. Although the ball actually was

708
00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 1: kind of interesting because they would have gotten around if

709
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 1: that double play got turned. So yeah, it would have

710
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:37,879
Speaker 1: been fine if we took that double play too. And

711
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 1: everyone mad in this game.

712
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,880
Speaker 2: But after that first inning little action there half top

713
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:43,919
Speaker 2: of the first, this was a complete snows fest. The

714
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,040
Speaker 2: Mets did not have a hit until the fourth when

715
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,560
Speaker 2: that Peete home run we just mentioned, first home run

716
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:51,800
Speaker 2: since June twenty fifth, twelve games, first RBI since June

717
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:55,040
Speaker 2: twenty sixth, eleven games, both of those also against the Marlins.

718
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 2: Like we just mentioned during this time too, Starling Marte

719
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 2: also left the game with a tight groin. Niners people

720
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,160
Speaker 2: around the same like, what happens talking Marte? What happens

721
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,119
Speaker 2: to Darling Marte? Just the end Durancy Arte out.

722
00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:07,760
Speaker 1: There, which we now have new information. Of course newly

723
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:10,199
Speaker 1: all start Starling Marte. Shout out to Starling having a

724
00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:12,879
Speaker 1: great year. He got his ops to about eight hundred.

725
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 1: I don't remember what it's at now, but it was

726
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,920
Speaker 1: over eight hundred now this weekend. But we got an update.

727
00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:19,399
Speaker 1: It's a groin injury and he is not going to

728
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 1: hit the eel, but he might take a couple of

729
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:23,000
Speaker 1: days to rest. So not sure if he's going to

730
00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:25,520
Speaker 1: play the full series in Atlanta or maybe even at all.

731
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:27,359
Speaker 1: That'll be tough. That'll be tough with the shape bench.

732
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 1: But after that Pete home run, we still didn't get

733
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,240
Speaker 1: another hit until the sixth inning, and that was a

734
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:36,040
Speaker 1: Tomasnito dribbler that was misplayed by mccelross up the middle.

735
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 1: Our first single since Friday evening. Just crazy because it's

736
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 1: not like we didn't get hits. No, it's singles.

737
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, and before that and neither game in the game

738
00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:46,640
Speaker 2: he actually wasn't starting. There was an absolutely crazy sequence

739
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:50,280
Speaker 2: of events that happened here in the sixth inning, tried

740
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:52,400
Speaker 2: to get Carrasco three times around the order. He was

741
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,720
Speaker 2: pitching well, a lot of sliders from Crasco in this game,

742
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 2: and it was very whiffable. There was also interesting because

743
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 2: we saw Trevor Williams throw a lot of sliders the day,

744
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:01,920
Speaker 2: so maybe it's a slider thing with the Marlins and

745
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:04,000
Speaker 2: Chris Bassett and Chris Bassetts were lost lighters too, most

746
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:04,760
Speaker 2: of the book.

747
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:05,560
Speaker 1: Thing for the Marlins here.

748
00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:07,560
Speaker 2: That was probably a little Hefner, little Hefner game planning here.

749
00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:09,960
Speaker 2: Shout out to the Mets pro scouting department. But tried

750
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 2: to get Carrasco three times through the order. Aguilar came

751
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 2: up with one out, his soft single to center field,

752
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:19,160
Speaker 2: and then he walked Haysu Sanchez on four straight balls

753
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:21,040
Speaker 2: after a first pitch strike, and a couple of them

754
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:24,080
Speaker 2: were not particularly close, and Hayesu Sanchez not really known

755
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:25,080
Speaker 2: for his plate discipline either.

756
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:26,200
Speaker 1: No, a little bit of a free swinger.

757
00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, so this would be the moment where I think

758
00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:30,760
Speaker 2: it probably would have made Senci and Carrasco. But no

759
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 2: off days, big series against the Brays coming up, no

760
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:34,880
Speaker 2: waft days coming from the last series. You got to

761
00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 2: try and get a little little extra of all these guys.

762
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:39,560
Speaker 2: Then the first pitch that Avid Garcia is another single,

763
00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:41,720
Speaker 2: So another base are lowers for Brian Anderson and this

764
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:43,720
Speaker 2: inning is looking like a cookie out of hand, And

765
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:45,320
Speaker 2: it looked like it would get out of hand because

766
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:47,760
Speaker 2: Brian Anderson lays the double in the gap. That I

767
00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 2: will say Brandon Nemo did a very good job of

768
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,400
Speaker 2: getting too. Great job long strives from Brandon Nimo got

769
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 2: a great wreath on the block. It may look like

770
00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:55,959
Speaker 2: he was almost gonna catch it for a second, then

771
00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 2: got to it quickly. Froze Hasu Sancha to the second base.

772
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 2: Perfect relay from then I went to Giorme Sanchez rounding third.

773
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:06,720
Speaker 2: Giorme puts literally his entire body into this throw guns

774
00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 2: at home eighty seven miles an hour in one hop,

775
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 2: sents himself rolling into the grass. James McCann picks it

776
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 2: on his glove side, comes all the way back across

777
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:17,400
Speaker 2: his body to get Sanchez, who his hook sliding into

778
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:21,040
Speaker 2: home got them bang bang bay at the plate. Amazing, amazing,

779
00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 2: amazing play by Nimo Giorme especially, and James mccanna an

780
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:25,440
Speaker 2: incredible tag.

781
00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:28,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was all around incredible defense, which is always important.

782
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 1: That throw Yormey made was phenomenal. It was so Also,

783
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 1: I think that pick that McCann made glove side all

784
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 1: the way back across his body and hook's slide, it

785
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:38,840
Speaker 1: was it was literally so good. He pulled the bleak,

786
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 1: it was Oh yeah, he ended up getting hurt from it,

787
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:43,760
Speaker 1: which is unfortunate. Nito then came into the game. Yes,

788
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 1: Lugo then came into the game. And then there was

789
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:47,720
Speaker 1: a wild pitch that wasn't a wild pitch. It was

790
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:48,480
Speaker 1: more of a pass ball.

791
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:50,680
Speaker 2: I learn today was rule the wild pitch, but it

792
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,240
Speaker 2: just looked pass ballish. It was kind of high and

793
00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:55,240
Speaker 2: outside when it looked like Neia was set up a

794
00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:56,920
Speaker 2: little bit inside so we couldn't really get to it

795
00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:59,040
Speaker 2: went over. We were so close to getting out of

796
00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,680
Speaker 2: this ending still time and now we leave it down

797
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 2: to one and the stadium kind of deflated after that.

798
00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:06,120
Speaker 1: A little bit. Yeah, and it was also a hot day,

799
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,040
Speaker 1: and everyone had a very hot day for a very

800
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,520
Speaker 1: long time we got there, Like two parking lot was

801
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,000
Speaker 1: active before this game too. Everyone's tail getting having a

802
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:13,920
Speaker 1: great time with the family.

803
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 2: Very I like that we've had these two consecutive July

804
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:17,320
Speaker 2: Saturday afternoons.

805
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:19,560
Speaker 1: We retire the number. Yeah, it's been nice. It's been

806
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:21,680
Speaker 1: It'd be cool to have another one soon. Yeah, definitely.

807
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:24,200
Speaker 1: Who do you think that next player could be? Number five?

808
00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 1: David Right? David Wright has to be the guy, right,

809
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,560
Speaker 1: Like I'm trying to think of other players it could

810
00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:31,560
Speaker 1: possibly be. I know there's some older players that I'm

811
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 1: sure you could throw some names out there, but David

812
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:34,600
Speaker 1: Wright is he's the met.

813
00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:37,080
Speaker 2: Is not only as anyone as close to deserving is right.

814
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 2: And also they might they might take some more time

815
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 2: before doing David Wright because he's, you know, he's pretty

816
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 2: young guy.

817
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,480
Speaker 1: Still, he's a young guy, and honestly, maybe he doesn't

818
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:46,000
Speaker 1: want it yet. I can see, I can I'll see

819
00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 1: David Wright being like not ready, I'm not ready to

820
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 1: come back like I should relatively still be playing, Like

821
00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 1: I don't want to come back to the stadium and

822
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:54,320
Speaker 1: have my jersey retired at an age where I could

823
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:56,240
Speaker 1: have still been the third basement for the New York Mets. Yeah,

824
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 1: I really didn't like the award. It like that. Let's

825
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 1: go back to the game because let's forget about the

826
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:02,960
Speaker 1: bad memories. Luisky or May.

827
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:05,400
Speaker 2: Had a oh no, I jumped way too far ahead.

828
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 2: But ending after that Lugo thing, Oh god, yeah, that

829
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:10,440
Speaker 2: David the right sentence.

830
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:12,360
Speaker 1: Really shook you up. Yeah, I mean that's your guy.

831
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:14,160
Speaker 1: I loved guy. Yeah.

832
00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:15,720
Speaker 2: I mean because you because you because you claimed you

833
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:16,720
Speaker 2: were consciously watching baseball.

834
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 1: Was you know you have seen my baseball quizzes on YouTube.

835
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:24,240
Speaker 1: Shocking knowledge of two thousands baseball It's unbelievable.

836
00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:26,160
Speaker 2: Did right was my guy? But let's get back to

837
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,320
Speaker 2: the game. That's We're down two one at this point

838
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:30,200
Speaker 2: is kind offlating. You really don't want to lose Keith Day.

839
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:33,320
Speaker 2: But Francisco and Door came up the next inning had

840
00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 2: a nice home run off of I only remember.

841
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:38,760
Speaker 1: It was lefty was still Brax and Garrett. No, it

842
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 1: was left field home run. No, he pulled it down

843
00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:46,680
Speaker 1: the left field line, so righty, Oh yeah it was Yeah.

844
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 1: I meant to say righty, Yeah, I meant to say righty.

845
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:53,040
Speaker 1: Face the lefty. His right hand swing is definitely a

846
00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:55,360
Speaker 1: whole lot better right now, that's left hand swing. Just

847
00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:58,239
Speaker 1: something as a non professional hitting coach I have knows

848
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 1: just back shoulder, dip it a little bit on the

849
00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 1: left handed swing. The right handed swing though, his level

850
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 1: to the ball, quick hands, everything you want, and you

851
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 1: could see it. His home runs this series were right handed, absolutely,

852
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 1: and this was a big moment. Got the Mets back

853
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,880
Speaker 1: up on top filled packed house for almost forty four

854
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:16,640
Speaker 1: thousand city field, highest this year besides the opening day.

855
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:18,960
Speaker 2: It was it was a good environment. After this home run,

856
00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 2: people were kind of feeling good. But then Adam Olveno

857
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 2: came in for the top of the eighth inning after

858
00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:27,680
Speaker 2: he pitched the second half of the top of the

859
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:29,520
Speaker 2: seventh and up down because he came in to relieve

860
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:30,520
Speaker 2: Lougo after a man got on.

861
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 1: I think he threw three pitches something like that.

862
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:34,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, So I'm not gonna fault anybody for you know,

863
00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:35,680
Speaker 2: coming in the game after a three pitch adding, But

864
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,400
Speaker 2: we've seen time after time this year with these Mets relievers,

865
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,040
Speaker 2: that's kind of hard to get back up after you've

866
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:40,920
Speaker 2: sat down.

867
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:43,560
Speaker 1: He gives up a home run to Haitius Aguilar, which

868
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:47,719
Speaker 1: was deflating. Second second deflation, suck the air out again.

869
00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:51,360
Speaker 1: Frustrating and especially because the following when we got to

870
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:53,080
Speaker 1: the plate, we had a shot in the bottom of

871
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 1: the eighth Leuiski or may leadoff double must double, which

872
00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:58,240
Speaker 1: was great. Tomas Neito sacrifice bunt got him over the

873
00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 1: third Nimo and then McNeil and Lindor both got out.

874
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:04,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, and we got a shot there. He felt like

875
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:06,480
Speaker 2: you could have gout. You know, you see Edwin Dias

876
00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:08,640
Speaker 2: warming up the bullpen. Now you get pretty confident you

877
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 2: can get a run on the bomb in the eighth

878
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:11,200
Speaker 2: thing and you can do it well. Also, just Lucy

879
00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 2: Groma is hitting the ball well again. Yeah, love that.

880
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:15,279
Speaker 2: But it's great he got He was struggling a little bit.

881
00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,040
Speaker 1: It seems like, you know, he had a couple of

882
00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:18,880
Speaker 1: days off which I think revitalized him.

883
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,560
Speaker 2: What happens, But just that updown stuff, man, it's killer.

884
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:24,120
Speaker 2: The Mets bullpen ra this year is about four after

885
00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:26,840
Speaker 2: an updown, when that's almost a full half run higher

886
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:29,840
Speaker 2: than it is otherwise being through three five bullpen this year.

887
00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:31,520
Speaker 1: So it's clear that's also probably just.

888
00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:32,640
Speaker 2: Like a bit of a fatigue thing, bit of an

889
00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 2: energy thing. It just it just continues to happen. It's

890
00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:38,520
Speaker 2: it's kind of frustrating. Got the ninth ending though Edwin

891
00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:41,799
Speaker 2: Diaz came in trumpets with the full crowd. Incredible would

892
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:43,160
Speaker 2: be even more incrediblef they were winning. Is the same

893
00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:45,719
Speaker 2: opportunity to even the tai game. Everyone's still very into it,

894
00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 2: even like seeing the old Curmudgeties, like still vibing with

895
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:50,799
Speaker 2: Edwin Diaz going for the trumpet, which is really cool.

896
00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:53,120
Speaker 1: Well, I have something, I have a we're sitting next

897
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:54,800
Speaker 1: to you, got some people. Yeah, I talk about the

898
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:58,720
Speaker 1: old Curmudgeties because there was a few people who are upset.

899
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,280
Speaker 1: And as we know that Met's vocal, We're a vocal

900
00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:03,440
Speaker 1: fan base for sure. And when we got to the

901
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,319
Speaker 1: tenth inning, there was a play in which Lindor made

902
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:07,239
Speaker 1: a diving stop in the hole and ended up making

903
00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:08,600
Speaker 1: a throw to third base and in ten thing, I

904
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:09,759
Speaker 1: want to do all that. I want to talk about

905
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:12,799
Speaker 1: eye real quick. You can finish the story. I'll jump back. Yeah, no, yeah,

906
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:14,799
Speaker 1: let me finish the story. Yeah, but we jumped into

907
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:17,279
Speaker 1: tenth inning. He makes the play, throws it away, ends

908
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:19,720
Speaker 1: up scoring a run, and we had this this couple

909
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:23,280
Speaker 1: near us that was I would say less than excited

910
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:26,120
Speaker 1: that that happened. I would say very mad, so mad

911
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:29,279
Speaker 1: that besides the expletives that were not stop coming out

912
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:31,080
Speaker 1: of their mouth for the last two innings, they really

913
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:33,120
Speaker 1: went hard on that one. They packed up their stuff

914
00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:35,600
Speaker 1: and they left in a one run game in the

915
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:39,040
Speaker 1: top of the tenth after being there for probably five hours,

916
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:41,279
Speaker 1: four or five hours. You you would think the Mets,

917
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 1: we're losing by ten runs. I couldn't believe it. But

918
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:47,200
Speaker 1: I will say once they left, everything changed, which like

919
00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:50,520
Speaker 1: this is gonna be a big, overarch arching theme for me.

920
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:54,680
Speaker 1: But like the negativity, I'm not normally like a Gary VB. Positive.

921
00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:56,799
Speaker 1: You gotta think positive. Don't go to college.

922
00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,279
Speaker 2: Whatever at four am. Don't text your family back. They're

923
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 2: wasting your time.

924
00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like that's not my thing. But I feel like

925
00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:06,280
Speaker 1: this Mets team, I've said it before, rides and dies

926
00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:08,759
Speaker 1: with the fan base. Like when the fans are feeling good.

927
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:10,759
Speaker 1: I feel like this Mets team's playing really well. When

928
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:12,440
Speaker 1: there's a lot of energy, I feel like they show up.

929
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:14,839
Speaker 1: They have these late inning comebacks, but it's a little

930
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 1: quiet maybe a little bit down. Maybe sometimes you know,

931
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:18,960
Speaker 1: people get a little ordinary a couple of booze come out.

932
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:22,279
Speaker 1: I feel like it just throws things off a little bit.

933
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:25,600
Speaker 1: You start getting this weird dynamic in the stadium between the.

934
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:27,320
Speaker 2: Vino got boomed, Yeah, which has been one of the

935
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 2: most trustory relievers all year.

936
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:31,480
Speaker 1: So it's like I get it, like I want too.

937
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 1: It was just it was just a pass ball. Yeah,

938
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 1: Lugo's got on the short end of this stick by

939
00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:37,279
Speaker 1: a lot of people. It's like, I get your frustration,

940
00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:40,919
Speaker 1: but this team is still good, and I don't think

941
00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:43,759
Speaker 1: a team twenty games about five hundred for playing I

942
00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:46,920
Speaker 1: know they're not playing particularly great baseball at this moment,

943
00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:51,040
Speaker 1: but booze not for me. It makes me cringe. No,

944
00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:52,960
Speaker 1: I hate being there when your boo it's upsetting. We

945
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:54,520
Speaker 1: were actually sitting next to it, like a nice hipster

946
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:56,359
Speaker 1: couple who looks like actually they're big Mets fans. They

947
00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:58,120
Speaker 1: were like, why you booing? Yeah, why are you boom?

948
00:36:58,120 --> 00:36:59,800
Speaker 1: And they were like so genuine and nice. It was funny,

949
00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:04,080
Speaker 1: but it's it. It's an uncomfortable feeling and we all

950
00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:06,200
Speaker 1: think back to not very long ago when everyone's acting

951
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:08,520
Speaker 1: his way by Edmund Dias. People want to cut Edmandias

952
00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:10,400
Speaker 1: like less than a calendar year ago. Yeah, the dude's

953
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:13,080
Speaker 1: I think I even said to you. I've said, imagine

954
00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:15,400
Speaker 1: telling someone in twenty nineteen that we would have just

955
00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:18,000
Speaker 1: seen Edwin Diaz do this right now, because this game

956
00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:21,400
Speaker 1: felt like a classic like disaster waiting to happen.

957
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:24,080
Speaker 2: One of my favorite stats to evibate pictures on is

958
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:27,080
Speaker 2: strikeout minus walk rate, which is literally like it's exactly

959
00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:29,239
Speaker 2: as you hear. You take a picture strikeout rate, you

960
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:30,960
Speaker 2: subtract their walk rate, and you get the number at

961
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:33,440
Speaker 2: the end. It's proven to be like incredibly effective and

962
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:36,920
Speaker 2: useful in predicting picture performers, very very useful in like

963
00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:40,279
Speaker 2: the high intensity fancy baseball circuit. It's almost as goes

964
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 2: as any other stat new fangal stat that gets great.

965
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,319
Speaker 2: It came minus walk great. Edwin Diaz is leading the

966
00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 2: major leagues right now with a forty one point two

967
00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:49,879
Speaker 2: strikeout minus walk grate, which just to get a sense

968
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:52,239
Speaker 2: of how good that is, how much better does anybody else?

969
00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:55,200
Speaker 2: Number two in that stat is my guy, Andres Munios,

970
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,720
Speaker 2: who gave up the home run to Patrick Hezeka Patrick Mesica,

971
00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:02,000
Speaker 2: the future Patrick Luino. He's second at thirty three point three,

972
00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:05,719
Speaker 2: So Edwin is almost eight full percentage points higher than

973
00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:08,080
Speaker 2: the guy who's second. That stat even end with Diaz

974
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:09,879
Speaker 2: is forty one point two. Strike up minus walk grate

975
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 2: is better than ninety eight percent of all the pitchers

976
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,080
Speaker 2: in the league strikeout rate, and you're taking his walk

977
00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:14,920
Speaker 2: right out of it.

978
00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:16,279
Speaker 1: It's it's unbelievable good he is.

979
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:18,640
Speaker 2: And even he's been better more recently fifty five percent

980
00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:20,480
Speaker 2: strek up my walk rate since June first.

981
00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:22,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I'm the entire season he has like

982
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 1: a fifty two. He's not been the best reliever in

983
00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:28,799
Speaker 1: baseball arguably and statistically. Right now he probably is either

984
00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:30,720
Speaker 1: him or Clay Holmes. Yeah, those are the two guys.

985
00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:32,880
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna pick Edwin Diaz every single time. And

986
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:34,840
Speaker 1: that questions why it is an All Star. He is

987
00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:36,680
Speaker 1: the best closer in the National League at the absolute

988
00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 1: minimum right now, He's an All Star. Deserves it. Glad

989
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 1: for Edwin because definitely had a bit of a roller

990
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:43,960
Speaker 1: coaster ride here with the Mets, but boy is he

991
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:45,960
Speaker 1: coming on strong when we need him the most.

992
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,160
Speaker 2: Absolutely now, we jumped around back and forth a little bit.

993
00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:50,600
Speaker 2: Then Door threw that ball away the first play to

994
00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 2: tenth inning. That was unfortunate. You got you put Billy

995
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:54,840
Speaker 2: Hamps on second base and people are paying attention.

996
00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:56,880
Speaker 1: You know, try to be a hero. It wasn't the

997
00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:59,080
Speaker 1: right play. It happens. Jean Burley got the second with

998
00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:00,000
Speaker 1: no out. So now you're looking.

999
00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:02,160
Speaker 2: You're like, at crap, it's a guy in second with

1000
00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:03,759
Speaker 2: noaub still and we're already down by one.

1001
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:05,680
Speaker 1: I do not like this. Wait, this literally goes back

1002
00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:08,680
Speaker 1: to exactly when they left. Lindor made a huge play

1003
00:39:08,680 --> 00:39:12,239
Speaker 1: after this. I'm back from Thomas knee throw because the

1004
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:14,560
Speaker 1: guy just continues to throw off his knees. Bit us

1005
00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:16,480
Speaker 1: a little bit in the button game four, but hey,

1006
00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:18,800
Speaker 1: he's made a lot of great throws this year. Throws

1007
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:20,600
Speaker 1: down the second on a back pick of John Birdie.

1008
00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:23,160
Speaker 1: John BIRDI does get there before the tag gets put on,

1009
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,320
Speaker 1: but Lindor gave him a nice, nice hard tag, a nudge.

1010
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:28,879
Speaker 1: I wouldn't even say it was a good hard tag. Yeah,

1011
00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:32,439
Speaker 1: give him a firm slap of the baseball play. Baseball play,

1012
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:34,279
Speaker 1: baseball play, and John Berry just happened to get off

1013
00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:36,600
Speaker 1: a second base slipped off of it, whatever it was,

1014
00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:39,000
Speaker 1: I guess there's a strong wind blew him off a

1015
00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:40,719
Speaker 1: second bill. Yeah, he's a small guy too. He's a

1016
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:43,640
Speaker 1: small guy. And Francisco Lindor, it's a strong dude. He's

1017
00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:46,480
Speaker 1: a met. He's got to be strong. Tagged him out now,

1018
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:48,239
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, one out, nobody on base, and

1019
00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:50,400
Speaker 1: this sending feels a lot different. John Birdy was so salty.

1020
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:51,680
Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys got the full sense

1021
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:54,440
Speaker 1: of it from television, but sitting like right on the

1022
00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:57,480
Speaker 1: third base line, it took John Birdy fifteen cents fifteen

1023
00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,440
Speaker 1: seconds to walk off the field. Yeah, he was so

1024
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:02,120
Speaker 1: mad a minute he was. He was on the field forever.

1025
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:04,480
Speaker 1: He didn't get away from second base for like fifteen seconds.

1026
00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:06,640
Speaker 2: And John Burny is definitely like an unwritten rules guy.

1027
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:08,319
Speaker 2: You could just you could feel it, Oh for sure.

1028
00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:10,879
Speaker 1: John. I mean he's hit singles. He's a big singles guys.

1029
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:13,240
Speaker 1: He's got twenty seven stolen bases on the air, credible,

1030
00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:15,719
Speaker 1: which is ridiculous. What a paint in our butt. But

1031
00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:18,480
Speaker 1: got him out there, which was huge. That completely changed

1032
00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:20,319
Speaker 1: the feel of this game too, because now the Mets

1033
00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:22,120
Speaker 1: were the inning, Colin Holderman could just get the rest

1034
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:24,520
Speaker 1: of the guys out. Nobody on Colin Holderman solid as well.

1035
00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:27,040
Speaker 1: Glad he's back, very good reliever, very much. Mets then

1036
00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:28,920
Speaker 1: in the tenth inning have their own little bit of

1037
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:33,480
Speaker 1: luck happened, because yeah, it was it was crazy. We

1038
00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:36,279
Speaker 1: couldn't believe it, because it was it's It was hard

1039
00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:38,080
Speaker 1: not to feel down. It was hard not to be

1040
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:41,919
Speaker 1: a little disappointed about what happened. But the miracle Mets, Yeah,

1041
00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:44,319
Speaker 1: they came back. Miracle Mets. This was like a team

1042
00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:45,279
Speaker 1: of death Andy type of win.

1043
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:47,400
Speaker 2: Tanner Scott made at a why the west bar and

1044
00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:50,080
Speaker 2: Lewisky army each looked like the leaguers for a half

1045
00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:50,759
Speaker 2: a second.

1046
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:54,280
Speaker 1: Which can happen backward? K's Scott's crazy stuff. When ninety

1047
00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:55,960
Speaker 1: nine with a crazy slider, when it's in the.

1048
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:57,400
Speaker 2: Strike zone, it's very hard to hit. A lot of

1049
00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:58,759
Speaker 2: times it's just a have the strike zone so you

1050
00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:00,919
Speaker 2: don't have to hit it. But it was pretty grim

1051
00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:04,080
Speaker 2: there with Tomas Neito up as the last the last

1052
00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:06,080
Speaker 2: breath of hope for the Mets with a man on second,

1053
00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:08,279
Speaker 2: two men out, and hits a dribbler down the third

1054
00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:11,120
Speaker 2: base line, to the very shorthanded usually Brian Anderson, who

1055
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:12,840
Speaker 2: just kind of fumbled the bag.

1056
00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:15,879
Speaker 1: He has such a cannon too, where it's like there's

1057
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:18,000
Speaker 1: no doubt he would have been able to throw out.

1058
00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:20,279
Speaker 1: It would have been easy, and he just kind of

1059
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:22,960
Speaker 1: booted it. He kind of botched it, which is also

1060
00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:26,480
Speaker 1: funny because it had very very similar vibes to the

1061
00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:28,799
Speaker 1: Mookie Wilson It kind of did when Mookie Wilson was

1062
00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:31,200
Speaker 1: in the ballpark and actually ended up finding out that

1063
00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:34,360
Speaker 1: it was like the tip or a comeback in extra

1064
00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:37,319
Speaker 1: innings by the Mets. The game is just tied at

1065
00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:40,000
Speaker 1: this point. The ball you know what happened, and we

1066
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:41,920
Speaker 1: don't have to give a full play by play. We

1067
00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:45,640
Speaker 1: can have a conversation about this year. But it hasn't

1068
00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:48,279
Speaker 1: basically happened since the Mookie Wilson thing. Exactly literally, the

1069
00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:51,799
Speaker 1: Mets hadn't had a walk off when on an error

1070
00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:53,640
Speaker 1: an extra because I was the only saying that this wasn't

1071
00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:55,520
Speaker 1: the air that was the walk off, this wasn't necessarily

1072
00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:57,239
Speaker 1: an error, this is real to hit. Okay, yeah, oh yeah,

1073
00:41:57,280 --> 00:41:59,719
Speaker 1: that's true. But just Brian, it got so ended up

1074
00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:01,480
Speaker 1: getting far away from even though the ball was moving

1075
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:03,440
Speaker 1: like three miles an hour. That Thomas Neto is not

1076
00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:05,600
Speaker 1: the fleetest a foot was able to round third than score.

1077
00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:09,200
Speaker 1: So now you have, Oh, Thomas got the hit, Markando

1078
00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:11,479
Speaker 1: was able to score. H's he's fleet issh of foot.

1079
00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:12,920
Speaker 1: He's an athlete, he can run enough.

1080
00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:15,160
Speaker 2: Now we have neither one second which is no guaranteed

1081
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:16,640
Speaker 2: to score in a single, no one else on the

1082
00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:19,400
Speaker 2: bench to pinch run with Nimmo who it's incredibly benign

1083
00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:21,360
Speaker 2: comebacker at the Tanner Scott who just spiked it.

1084
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:23,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, well that was the air. We'll hit him hard.

1085
00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:25,560
Speaker 1: He clanked it. He clanked, and I think he heard

1086
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:29,000
Speaker 1: the crowd because the crowd gave up a scream, and

1087
00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:31,279
Speaker 1: I think he just freaked out and rushed it and

1088
00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:33,040
Speaker 1: just didn't even come close to throwing the ball to

1089
00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:35,440
Speaker 1: first base. Just missed by twenty five thirty feet if

1090
00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:37,239
Speaker 1: not more. He was just agular, just looked at it.

1091
00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:38,120
Speaker 1: He was like, I can't get that.

1092
00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:40,200
Speaker 2: And also it was in a weird spot where Nimo

1093
00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:42,000
Speaker 2: was running hard out of the box as he always does,

1094
00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:43,399
Speaker 2: and like the pick would have been like right where

1095
00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:45,839
Speaker 2: nimo spikes were so Aguilar couldn't.

1096
00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:47,080
Speaker 1: Even get his hand. There couldn't he couldn't go there.

1097
00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 2: He would have risk getting run into even though I

1098
00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:51,400
Speaker 2: think if Randimo ran into his agular two big men,

1099
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:53,160
Speaker 2: but his aguiar is significantly bigger.

1100
00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:56,480
Speaker 1: You get like a dude. It's it's really a question

1101
00:42:56,560 --> 00:42:59,880
Speaker 1: of because haus agular is like, I don't know how

1102
00:42:59,880 --> 00:43:03,279
Speaker 1: to describe his body, but it's it's heavy solid. It's

1103
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:06,600
Speaker 1: heavy solid. Brandon Nimmo, Brandon Nemo is like a he's

1104
00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:09,800
Speaker 1: an athlete, a wide receiver. Yeah, dude's absolutely Aguilar was

1105
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:12,640
Speaker 1: kind of like an edge. Yeah, he's more closer to

1106
00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:15,240
Speaker 1: an edge rusher, maybe a center. Maybe he's more closer

1107
00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:16,880
Speaker 1: to a center. I think it's tackle, a tackler and

1108
00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:18,399
Speaker 1: an edge because he's taller. So you want you want

1109
00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:19,960
Speaker 1: on the outside of their lines, your quarterback and see

1110
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:23,000
Speaker 1: over the top. But this was the first time the

1111
00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:25,600
Speaker 1: Mets won on an error as a walk off in

1112
00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:28,520
Speaker 1: extra endings since Game six of the nineteen eighty six

1113
00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:31,520
Speaker 1: World Series, and of course Keith Hernandez number retired. Mookie

1114
00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:36,600
Speaker 1: Wilson makes some attendance crazy, unbelievable, felt really nice. It

1115
00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:39,520
Speaker 1: was that it was mesmerizingly exciting. We were jumping up

1116
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:43,360
Speaker 1: and down and hugging people. I got so worked up.

1117
00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:47,000
Speaker 1: I forgot my lemonade stein because I bought a bass

1118
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:49,439
Speaker 1: loaded lemonade. I was like, you know what, I'm gonna

1119
00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:51,560
Speaker 1: spend twenty three dollars on the lemonade instead of twenty

1120
00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:53,840
Speaker 1: on the gym beam stuff in centerfield because I just

1121
00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:55,840
Speaker 1: wanted some lemons in my life. It's a great fruit.

1122
00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:57,600
Speaker 1: It's a long day, and I was I was like,

1123
00:43:57,640 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get the Stein. I'm gonna bring this home.

1124
00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:02,920
Speaker 1: It's gonna be great. And the chaos ensued. I walk

1125
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,319
Speaker 1: out of the ballpark. I go, yeah, I forgot my cup.

1126
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:07,960
Speaker 1: I forgot my cup, and I was a little bit disappointed.

1127
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:09,799
Speaker 1: That's okay, well, BIGI less is a point.

1128
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:11,439
Speaker 2: The Mets are now seven to oh extra inning games

1129
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:12,920
Speaker 2: this year, which is incredibly impressive.

1130
00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:14,480
Speaker 1: Mark, we're seven and zero.

1131
00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:16,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're seven oh yeah, right, because we are part

1132
00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:18,359
Speaker 2: of the Mets organization technically now.

1133
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:20,640
Speaker 1: No, no, no, we were seven and zero. Oh. I

1134
00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:25,200
Speaker 1: totally forgot about Sunday. Well, let's talk about Sunday. Yeah,

1135
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:27,840
Speaker 1: because we lost the game an extra innings. As you

1136
00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 1: guys can probably tell by that little riff, right there.

1137
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:32,320
Speaker 1: So we're now seven and one in extras that sucks.

1138
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:35,520
Speaker 1: Sandy Aalkatar is just really good. We'll say this. Taiwan

1139
00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:39,200
Speaker 1: Walker's also really cool. So it's really spin zone. We're

1140
00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:42,040
Speaker 1: gonna spin zone this one here. How do we get positive?

1141
00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:44,440
Speaker 1: Taiwan Walker has now gone up against Sandy aal Katara

1142
00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:46,200
Speaker 1: twice and has held his own.

1143
00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:48,840
Speaker 2: Yes, has he didn't give up a run on Sunday,

1144
00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:50,719
Speaker 2: pitched very well enough to win? We do at my

1145
00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:53,640
Speaker 2: little Taiwan breakdown now, because he was so good on Sunday,

1146
00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:57,200
Speaker 2: seven innings, seven strikeouts, three hits, one walk, only four

1147
00:44:57,239 --> 00:44:59,520
Speaker 2: hard hit balls, none over ninety eight miles an hour

1148
00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:01,640
Speaker 2: off the bat. Almost no ball was hit hard enough

1149
00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:04,280
Speaker 2: to leave the yard, which is freaking awesome. From Taiwan

1150
00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:06,480
Speaker 2: toe to toe with literally one of the best pictures

1151
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:08,440
Speaker 2: in baseball. Who's pitching probably the best in all of

1152
00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:12,600
Speaker 2: baseball over the last month plus. Split change was nasty

1153
00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:15,360
Speaker 2: as hell with thirty eight percent whiffs. I notice a

1154
00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:17,840
Speaker 2: lot more high fastballs two from Taiwan. This one he

1155
00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:20,160
Speaker 2: was really just he was only throwing them high exclusively.

1156
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:22,840
Speaker 2: Whether that was execution or way that was planned, whatever

1157
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:25,400
Speaker 2: happened It was worked because he has a heavy fastball.

1158
00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:26,960
Speaker 1: He throws pretty hard. It was sitting up there and

1159
00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:30,440
Speaker 1: getting getting swiffs really good. I will tell you from

1160
00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:32,600
Speaker 1: watching the game on TV because I know you're Radio

1161
00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:36,480
Speaker 1: Sunday Radio on the Sundays. The umpire was given about

1162
00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:38,520
Speaker 1: half an inch above the zone. Love that and Taiwan

1163
00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:40,239
Speaker 1: was just pepper and every time and the Marlin teris

1164
00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:42,160
Speaker 1: turned around like this is not a strike, my guy, Like,

1165
00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:44,160
Speaker 1: what do you want me to do? I'm parking wasn't great.

1166
00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:47,120
Speaker 1: I'm always down to slander an umpire two. He has

1167
00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:48,560
Speaker 1: like a low key shot to be an All Star

1168
00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:50,520
Speaker 1: I think hundred percent and be hilarious. So Tywan Walker's

1169
00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:51,759
Speaker 1: a back to back All Star and like a ten

1170
00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:54,000
Speaker 1: million dollars a year contract. As it stands right now,

1171
00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:56,040
Speaker 1: he is not no. But we know how the pictures

1172
00:45:56,080 --> 00:45:57,759
Speaker 1: were caps. These guys are gonna bow out. Yeah, and

1173
00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:00,000
Speaker 1: especially because if you make your start the last week

1174
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:03,560
Speaker 1: again or whatever, it's going to be. Also, I don't

1175
00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:05,200
Speaker 1: think you saw this. Don't look at the zoom chat.

1176
00:46:05,200 --> 00:46:07,400
Speaker 1: We just got breaking news. The Atlanta Braves have made

1177
00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:10,080
Speaker 1: a trade. No, the Atlanta Braves have made a trade

1178
00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:14,919
Speaker 1: for a big power hitting second Basement by the name

1179
00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:19,960
Speaker 1: of Robinson Canoe. Robinson Cano has just been traded to

1180
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:22,000
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Braves. I think this is gonna be the

1181
00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:24,520
Speaker 1: first time I curse on the podcast, and the producers

1182
00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:27,439
Speaker 1: and that are just can figure out what the what

1183
00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:31,640
Speaker 1: the what this is? This is hell, this is alexand

1184
00:46:32,239 --> 00:46:34,919
Speaker 1: not yet, this is Alexanthopolis mind games, not hell yet.

1185
00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:38,200
Speaker 1: He's got a voodoo doll. I don't know what it is.

1186
00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:41,359
Speaker 1: Dirty magic, your Greek brother get him back. I know, well,

1187
00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:43,919
Speaker 1: my grandma has like a magic thing going on where

1188
00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:45,880
Speaker 1: like my mom pulled out the prayer bag yesterday at

1189
00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:48,600
Speaker 1: the game. My mom brings a prayer back everywhere. I'm

1190
00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:51,680
Speaker 1: gonna Yaya to deevilize the mess right now or puts.

1191
00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:53,719
Speaker 1: I don't think she does evil. I don't think she's

1192
00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:58,160
Speaker 1: willing to put something on someone, but my goodness as

1193
00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:01,040
Speaker 1: evil on. Everybody's playing dirty trade for Robinson Cano. By

1194
00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:04,040
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say anything about Robinson Cano because that's

1195
00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:07,680
Speaker 1: setting up for that's setting up for failure. The train

1196
00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:11,640
Speaker 1: for Robinson Cano. Oh man, I've been playing Orlando Arci

1197
00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:14,960
Speaker 1: at second. Please just don't play this series, please. I

1198
00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:19,520
Speaker 1: think he's gonna play this series. Why why why? Here's

1199
00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:21,520
Speaker 1: also what you get for railing against Ozzy. Albi's your

1200
00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:24,480
Speaker 1: video this week. Yeah, okay, well I didn't reil. I

1201
00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:27,600
Speaker 1: spoke the truth. Yeah no, I said everything you did

1202
00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:31,400
Speaker 1: statistically analytics Mark analytics Mark. Yeah, Metamorphosis. Learned about w

1203
00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:33,600
Speaker 1: RC plus and now I can use it to make

1204
00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:35,399
Speaker 1: people mad and fit mine narrow.

1205
00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:37,560
Speaker 2: But the end of the Sunday game, I can't believe

1206
00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:40,040
Speaker 2: you just said that. I can't believe that's lost. In extras,

1207
00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:43,799
Speaker 2: Tom Hunter, our boy, our guy, future future, I guess

1208
00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 2: in the Messed Up podcast got single to death.

1209
00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:47,520
Speaker 1: Neither. Also we mentioned before I got a little bit

1210
00:47:47,560 --> 00:47:49,200
Speaker 1: over aggressive with a knee throw. You can't do a

1211
00:47:49,239 --> 00:47:51,200
Speaker 1: knee throw to third base because you have to throw

1212
00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:54,840
Speaker 1: around and over the batter. Sometimes he threw it about

1213
00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:57,520
Speaker 1: thirty feet over third basement. Said it's gonna happen. You

1214
00:47:57,640 --> 00:47:59,680
Speaker 1: live and you learn. Nimo put the ball right to

1215
00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:01,560
Speaker 1: the wall. All how we really made me think it

1216
00:48:01,600 --> 00:48:05,000
Speaker 1: was out. It would have been a home run.

1217
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:07,319
Speaker 2: Eleven ballparks in baseball, all the ones you probably would

1218
00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:08,960
Speaker 2: have expected it to have been a home run, and

1219
00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:11,840
Speaker 2: ball out to right field Lindor came up with the

1220
00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:13,400
Speaker 2: shots to win it. He was up two zero and

1221
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:15,640
Speaker 2: Tanner Scott swung in three sliders, two of them were

1222
00:48:15,680 --> 00:48:18,319
Speaker 2: probably off the plate. The Lindorks were out heavy after

1223
00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:21,239
Speaker 2: this one, and with the reason Francisca Lindor didn't come

1224
00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:23,920
Speaker 2: through in a big situation. A Twitter account I was

1225
00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:26,360
Speaker 2: arguing about because Francisco Lindor now was like a twenty

1226
00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:30,000
Speaker 2: played appearance played appearance sample size where he hasn't come

1227
00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:32,200
Speaker 2: through in the clutch with the tire and go ahead

1228
00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:33,920
Speaker 2: run on base and ninth ending or later, even though I.

1229
00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:35,799
Speaker 1: Think he has three walk off as a match he does. Yeah,

1230
00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:37,880
Speaker 1: I think the narrative that he's not clutch is like

1231
00:48:37,920 --> 00:48:39,480
Speaker 1: a little nonsense. I mean because he has a bad

1232
00:48:39,480 --> 00:48:41,640
Speaker 1: bad batting average is twenty played appearance. Yeah, because bad

1233
00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:44,000
Speaker 1: bat twenty appearances. That's that's a batting average sample. It's

1234
00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:45,800
Speaker 1: all you need. No one's ever had a bad twenty

1235
00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:46,920
Speaker 1: played appearance stretching.

1236
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:51,360
Speaker 2: It's also on base percentage to twenty played appearances. That

1237
00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:52,759
Speaker 2: was a big one for the Lindorks to let you

1238
00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:54,960
Speaker 2: have that. But this was a disappointing game also though,

1239
00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:58,200
Speaker 2: Like if you looked at this series beforehand, and you

1240
00:48:58,239 --> 00:49:00,000
Speaker 2: saw the Mets split and they lost these two games.

1241
00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:02,200
Speaker 2: I can't imagine you being like particularly upset.

1242
00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:03,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a weird thing.

1243
00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:05,319
Speaker 2: Where like if the Mets didn't get shut out, if

1244
00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:07,080
Speaker 2: the Mets lose this game, yeah, we spoke about that

1245
00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:09,800
Speaker 2: four to two in nine innings, and just like it happened.

1246
00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:12,279
Speaker 1: Like okay, like I'd be frustrated. But the guy who's

1247
00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:13,919
Speaker 1: gonna start the All Star Game in the National League

1248
00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:16,920
Speaker 1: beat us. What do you do? Yeah, it happens. It's

1249
00:49:16,960 --> 00:49:19,640
Speaker 1: easy to get worked up over this series when it

1250
00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:23,399
Speaker 1: relatively wasn't that it's not as bad as everyone says

1251
00:49:23,400 --> 00:49:25,279
Speaker 1: it is, but it's by no means good. Yeah, which

1252
00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:26,600
Speaker 1: has kind of been the theme for like a few

1253
00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:28,520
Speaker 1: weeks now. They've kind of been treading water a little bit.

1254
00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:31,280
Speaker 1: I think there are like three games over five hundred

1255
00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:34,399
Speaker 1: since June first. That's a rare three or four, whatever

1256
00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:35,480
Speaker 1: it is. I think the Phillies are that for the

1257
00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:37,640
Speaker 1: whole season. The Braves just happened to be twenty nine

1258
00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:40,239
Speaker 1: to eight over that time, which, like, listen, you win

1259
00:49:40,239 --> 00:49:42,440
Speaker 1: twenty one more games than you lose, you're gonna make

1260
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:44,480
Speaker 1: up some ground at least we can have some solace

1261
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:46,640
Speaker 1: in the fact that this is not any of our faults. No,

1262
00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:49,839
Speaker 1: because it's Salakata's. Yeah, it's Salacatas Salakata. Don't even get

1263
00:49:49,880 --> 00:49:52,520
Speaker 1: me started. I'm gonna try my hardest not to go

1264
00:49:52,640 --> 00:49:55,360
Speaker 1: crazy on a rant here. But he declared the National

1265
00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:59,560
Speaker 1: League East over on May thirty. First he said mess

1266
00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:03,520
Speaker 1: have won. Then East it's over, which anybody with also

1267
00:50:03,680 --> 00:50:06,880
Speaker 1: anybody out there whose exists, Like you know about jinxes,

1268
00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:08,640
Speaker 1: you can't jinx it and you hang out with your friends,

1269
00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:09,520
Speaker 1: you can't chang anything.

1270
00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:12,279
Speaker 2: John likes to send us a this game's flying text

1271
00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:13,920
Speaker 2: every single game with the first or second in.

1272
00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:15,560
Speaker 1: It, and it gets me mad every single game.

1273
00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:17,920
Speaker 2: I believe on the fourth of July you jinked me

1274
00:50:18,040 --> 00:50:20,440
Speaker 2: and Pat because we were playing beer die with some friends.

1275
00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:23,080
Speaker 2: Incredible game. We're playing against some guys who haven't played

1276
00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:24,520
Speaker 2: beer Died off and you're like, oh, you guys got

1277
00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:26,640
Speaker 2: this one. You can't say that to people. You don't

1278
00:50:26,680 --> 00:50:28,440
Speaker 2: want jinks anything. You don't want jinks anything. Ever, You

1279
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:30,440
Speaker 2: shouldn't declare anything until it's already hats.

1280
00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:32,640
Speaker 1: Why you say break a leg? You wish bad on people.

1281
00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:34,759
Speaker 1: If you want something good to happen, you don't. You

1282
00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:37,359
Speaker 1: don't say the Mets have won the Nationallyague East in May. Also,

1283
00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:39,480
Speaker 1: as Mets fans, we know it's not over to the

1284
00:50:39,520 --> 00:50:41,399
Speaker 1: last game of the season. Also, I guess now we're

1285
00:50:41,400 --> 00:50:43,600
Speaker 1: just transitioning into the Braves preview. But like the Braves

1286
00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:46,160
Speaker 1: like realistically have one of the most complete rosters in

1287
00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:48,440
Speaker 1: all of baseball. They won the World Series, and they

1288
00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:51,720
Speaker 1: got Ronda Kuniya back from injury. They added Michael Harris,

1289
00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:54,640
Speaker 1: they added Spencer Streider, they added Kyle Wright, they added

1290
00:50:54,680 --> 00:50:56,839
Speaker 1: Kenley Jansen, who isn't playing right now, but someone else.

1291
00:50:56,840 --> 00:50:59,760
Speaker 1: They added Dansby Swanson has come into his own Finally,

1292
00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:03,080
Speaker 1: I think it's important to note Ad is like a guy,

1293
00:51:03,160 --> 00:51:05,640
Speaker 1: a hypothetical Ad became became a part of the major

1294
00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:07,160
Speaker 1: league team who was not part of the major league

1295
00:51:07,160 --> 00:51:09,120
Speaker 1: team previously. Yeah, I mean, well Kunya was, but he

1296
00:51:09,120 --> 00:51:10,400
Speaker 1: wasn't there for the World Series. I mean, like I

1297
00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:12,000
Speaker 1: think since the World Series of Kuna came back and

1298
00:51:12,040 --> 00:51:14,560
Speaker 1: they added those other guys. Yeah, and Medalson's also still

1299
00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:16,919
Speaker 1: very first Medison that was like kind of a fair

1300
00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:19,200
Speaker 1: trade with Freddy Freeman. Yeah, so like this team top

1301
00:51:19,239 --> 00:51:22,000
Speaker 1: to bottom. They're so good, so annoying, really really good.

1302
00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:24,040
Speaker 1: So like I mean, we said it even before we

1303
00:51:24,040 --> 00:51:26,840
Speaker 1: were with the Mets, this division was going to be

1304
00:51:26,840 --> 00:51:29,880
Speaker 1: between us and the Braves, and I think I specifically said,

1305
00:51:29,920 --> 00:51:32,880
Speaker 1: whoever wins the season series is going to win the division.

1306
00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:35,880
Speaker 1: And it's really shaping up that way. Like again, this

1307
00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:38,080
Speaker 1: isn't this isn't a Mets choke. The Braves are also

1308
00:51:38,560 --> 00:51:41,640
Speaker 1: eighteen games of five hundred two really good teams are

1309
00:51:41,640 --> 00:51:44,480
Speaker 1: going to be playing three games against each other. It's

1310
00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:47,080
Speaker 1: gonna be must watch baseball. It's gonna be stressful, but

1311
00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:50,439
Speaker 1: it's gonna be damn good. Twenty nine and eight since

1312
00:51:50,480 --> 00:51:52,680
Speaker 1: June first. But if you beat the Braves two out

1313
00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:55,040
Speaker 1: of three this series, it literally doesn't matter. I said

1314
00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:57,000
Speaker 1: at the beginning of this episode, almost an hour ago.

1315
00:51:57,239 --> 00:52:00,000
Speaker 1: We're at the point where almost twenty percent, maybe fifty

1316
00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:03,319
Speaker 1: team I'm not a math cut, literally doesn't matter. No,

1317
00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:05,240
Speaker 1: not that the liar doesn't matter, but like the fifteen

1318
00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:07,480
Speaker 1: games you're playing against the Braves and your seventy six

1319
00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:10,439
Speaker 1: remainding are monumentally more important than the games you're gonna

1320
00:52:10,480 --> 00:52:13,600
Speaker 1: play against the Nationals. The Marlins even the Philadelphia Phillies,

1321
00:52:13,600 --> 00:52:16,719
Speaker 1: the Yankees, the Padres who are coming up the future

1322
00:52:16,760 --> 00:52:20,879
Speaker 1: in the schedule, Like, these games matter a lot, a lot,

1323
00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:23,440
Speaker 1: so much. It's so rare to have a situation where,

1324
00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:26,239
Speaker 1: like you, it's all it's all on your hands, like you,

1325
00:52:26,320 --> 00:52:28,120
Speaker 1: No matter how well the Braves have played and how

1326
00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:30,280
Speaker 1: much the Mets of tread wall. If a switch flips

1327
00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:32,799
Speaker 1: on Monday and the Mets come out ripping, it's all,

1328
00:52:32,840 --> 00:52:35,520
Speaker 1: it's all different. Yeah, it's completely different. You like you. This,

1329
00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:38,240
Speaker 1: especially Game one with Max schers are going up against

1330
00:52:38,239 --> 00:52:40,879
Speaker 1: Max Freed, Battle of the Maxes, max off, max off,

1331
00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:43,360
Speaker 1: maxed out, whatever they're calling it, maxed out. That's gonna,

1332
00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:46,160
Speaker 1: I feel like, really set the tone for this entire series,

1333
00:52:46,200 --> 00:52:48,440
Speaker 1: because if the Mets come out swinging, we know, you know,

1334
00:52:48,520 --> 00:52:50,240
Speaker 1: we know what chu'res gonna be able to do always.

1335
00:52:50,360 --> 00:52:52,680
Speaker 1: But if the Mets come out swinging, that does give

1336
00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:54,600
Speaker 1: everybody a little bit of a different feel. I think

1337
00:52:54,640 --> 00:52:57,160
Speaker 1: at least gives you a a little bit of a

1338
00:52:57,200 --> 00:52:59,440
Speaker 1: deep breath of like, Okay, this team can still hang

1339
00:52:59,480 --> 00:53:02,239
Speaker 1: like me and you, by no means are and the

1340
00:53:02,239 --> 00:53:05,520
Speaker 1: panic stage by any means, we're We're fine. Content again

1341
00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:08,920
Speaker 1: or I wouldn't say content. We're fine, but this is

1342
00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:11,520
Speaker 1: an important series and I do think that the Mets

1343
00:53:11,760 --> 00:53:13,840
Speaker 1: need to come out swinging. I think they need to

1344
00:53:13,880 --> 00:53:16,000
Speaker 1: take this series from the Braves. There's no such thing

1345
00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:18,279
Speaker 1: as a must win in July, but this is about

1346
00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:20,480
Speaker 1: as close as you could get. I'll say, should win, Yes,

1347
00:53:20,520 --> 00:53:22,560
Speaker 1: should win, this, should win. This is a should win.

1348
00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:24,680
Speaker 2: See and Max Freez had their number in the past.

1349
00:53:24,719 --> 00:53:26,840
Speaker 2: He's so good, really good pitcher.

1350
00:53:26,960 --> 00:53:28,839
Speaker 1: But we do have our guy. We got Surezer. Yeah,

1351
00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:31,960
Speaker 1: and Szer looks sharp, albeit against the Reds. And then again,

1352
00:53:32,040 --> 00:53:34,040
Speaker 1: this is a very very different line. I mean, we

1353
00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:36,560
Speaker 1: just we just go one through nine. Travis Starna a

1354
00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:40,480
Speaker 1: catcher plus hitter, first base, Matt Olson plus hitter, second base,

1355
00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:43,799
Speaker 1: Robinson Cano. I don't even know. I don't say anything.

1356
00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:45,440
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say anything. I have no comments on

1357
00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:49,120
Speaker 1: Robinson Cano. I'll save them to after the series. Third

1358
00:53:49,120 --> 00:53:51,160
Speaker 1: base Austin Riley. Dude, it's like an MVP can so

1359
00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:52,680
Speaker 1: freaking good. He's unbelievab ridiculous.

1360
00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:53,920
Speaker 2: Imagine like he was just not that good a few

1361
00:53:53,960 --> 00:53:55,440
Speaker 2: years ago and now he's an MVP canned. He's like

1362
00:53:55,440 --> 00:53:56,719
Speaker 2: twenty five home runs already this year.

1363
00:53:56,800 --> 00:53:59,759
Speaker 1: Shortstop Dansby Swanson number one overall pick, playing like it

1364
00:53:59,840 --> 00:54:02,000
Speaker 1: he he should have been the starter for the All Star.

1365
00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:04,160
Speaker 2: Team that sat a last ship about Dancy Swanson. Over

1366
00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:06,160
Speaker 2: the last few years, I kind of kind of procured this.

1367
00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:08,440
Speaker 1: See you say bad things and think good things. Now

1368
00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:10,719
Speaker 1: it's a jinks and don't no jinks, don't say any

1369
00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:12,799
Speaker 1: Declare every Mets fan listening this no more. Declare the

1370
00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:15,359
Speaker 1: statements for the next two months positive vibes only. You

1371
00:54:15,360 --> 00:54:17,800
Speaker 1: have to talk like like an academic, like anything is possible.

1372
00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:20,360
Speaker 1: You have to give a guard like a lawyer or historian. Allegedly.

1373
00:54:20,440 --> 00:54:23,319
Speaker 1: You got to use allegedly possible. It's possible something could happen,

1374
00:54:23,400 --> 00:54:26,320
Speaker 1: but something else might theoretically yeah, and talk about percentile

1375
00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:28,839
Speaker 1: outcomes like I was a big fluff words man when

1376
00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:30,799
Speaker 1: I was writing essays and stuff, the very few that

1377
00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:33,000
Speaker 1: I wrote in college because I just chose not to

1378
00:54:33,200 --> 00:54:36,480
Speaker 1: not a great student, but I uh, I would use

1379
00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:38,799
Speaker 1: those big words. Take up, take up some it makes

1380
00:54:38,800 --> 00:54:40,000
Speaker 1: you sound smarter than you actually are.

1381
00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:42,839
Speaker 2: Or sometimes I figure that could be counterproductive, maybe make

1382
00:54:42,920 --> 00:54:45,400
Speaker 2: sense stupid there. I'm sure your professors may have thought that.

1383
00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:49,600
Speaker 1: My professors thought highly of me. I take back, I

1384
00:54:49,640 --> 00:54:51,759
Speaker 1: was a great student. All right, Well we'll move on

1385
00:54:51,840 --> 00:54:54,000
Speaker 1: there from that. But this Braves, this whole lineup is amazing.

1386
00:54:54,000 --> 00:54:56,000
Speaker 2: They also Marcelo Zouna hasn't even gotten hot yet. Even

1387
00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:57,680
Speaker 2: though all of his underlying status are like as go,

1388
00:54:57,800 --> 00:54:59,279
Speaker 2: that's not better than they've been his entire career.

1389
00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:02,560
Speaker 1: Kun still exists like this team is a good freaking

1390
00:55:02,600 --> 00:55:04,480
Speaker 1: Michael Harris. You guys are gonna get your first look

1391
00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:07,680
Speaker 1: at Michael Harris, who is one of the budding young

1392
00:55:07,719 --> 00:55:09,480
Speaker 1: stars in the outfield, the major it in baseball. The

1393
00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:12,600
Speaker 1: dude is incredibly talented. The Braves don't They don't miss

1394
00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:13,360
Speaker 1: with their development.

1395
00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:15,480
Speaker 2: All my fancy baseball friends out there, they've probably been

1396
00:55:15,520 --> 00:55:17,080
Speaker 2: keeping an eye on Michael Harris for a few years

1397
00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:19,000
Speaker 2: because he's just been ripping through the system and he's

1398
00:55:19,000 --> 00:55:21,840
Speaker 2: been a guy who flash power, speed and average. Everyone

1399
00:55:21,840 --> 00:55:23,520
Speaker 2: who plays fancy baseball know that if you can have

1400
00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:25,279
Speaker 2: speed and average with a little bit of power, that's

1401
00:55:25,280 --> 00:55:26,759
Speaker 2: a guy who's like gonna be a first round pick

1402
00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:29,680
Speaker 2: in the future. He's not really like a massive power hit.

1403
00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:31,080
Speaker 2: He probably hits the ball on the ground a little

1404
00:55:31,080 --> 00:55:32,960
Speaker 2: bit too much, doesn't barrel enough to ever be like

1405
00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:34,919
Speaker 2: a thirty five to forty homer guy. But I see

1406
00:55:34,960 --> 00:55:37,520
Speaker 2: him as like a like a two seventy twenty five

1407
00:55:37,520 --> 00:55:40,279
Speaker 2: to twenty two seventy twenty twenty five, depending on how

1408
00:55:40,320 --> 00:55:40,759
Speaker 2: much they run.

1409
00:55:40,800 --> 00:55:42,160
Speaker 1: The Braves do love to run too, so that'll be

1410
00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:42,840
Speaker 1: a thinking the series.

1411
00:55:42,880 --> 00:55:45,479
Speaker 2: But getting a close up close look at Michael Harris,

1412
00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:47,600
Speaker 2: who the Braves just keep hitting eight ninth is just

1413
00:55:47,600 --> 00:55:49,480
Speaker 2: a slap in the face too. He's he's a hell

1414
00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:51,520
Speaker 2: of a ball player. Fancy baseball players, make sure he's

1415
00:55:51,560 --> 00:55:53,239
Speaker 2: not in your waiver wire. I'm sure he's not this point,

1416
00:55:53,239 --> 00:55:55,759
Speaker 2: because he's fantastic and his result has been amazing, like

1417
00:55:55,840 --> 00:55:57,480
Speaker 2: eight to fifty ops in his first month with three

1418
00:55:57,560 --> 00:55:59,480
Speaker 2: hundred average, like good ballplayer?

1419
00:55:59,560 --> 00:56:00,919
Speaker 1: What are the what are the rest of the pitching

1420
00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:03,919
Speaker 1: matchups looking like? So sure's a freedom Monday maxed out

1421
00:56:04,440 --> 00:56:07,040
Speaker 1: Peterson Streither. It's a fun one. Is a fun one,

1422
00:56:07,080 --> 00:56:08,800
Speaker 1: probably a little more fun for the Braise than the Mets.

1423
00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:11,520
Speaker 2: But that's Tuesday night, s mecha Strei there, I'm gonna

1424
00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:15,160
Speaker 2: pontificate about pontificated about him for a second, because holy crap,

1425
00:56:15,200 --> 00:56:18,880
Speaker 2: if you guys want to see fastballs, really good fastballs,

1426
00:56:18,960 --> 00:56:21,680
Speaker 2: high spin, high velocity fastballs. He is up there with

1427
00:56:21,719 --> 00:56:23,480
Speaker 2: the best of the bizz, I would say, and I'm

1428
00:56:23,480 --> 00:56:26,240
Speaker 2: gonna give I'm gonna give a lofty praise for special

1429
00:56:26,239 --> 00:56:28,120
Speaker 2: Stryer right now. I'd say probably his top twenty five

1430
00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:29,320
Speaker 2: best stuff in all baseball.

1431
00:56:29,600 --> 00:56:30,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, his lofty praise.

1432
00:56:30,600 --> 00:56:32,759
Speaker 2: You're gonna watch it and be like, oh wow. He

1433
00:56:32,840 --> 00:56:34,400
Speaker 2: also like he's like he's like kind of like a

1434
00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:37,000
Speaker 2: shortened compact and like a little bit more athletic. That's

1435
00:56:37,040 --> 00:56:38,920
Speaker 2: how he gets like that really good upward movement that

1436
00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:42,000
Speaker 2: fastball as approach angle is like very very like straight

1437
00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:44,080
Speaker 2: on you and it comes right up and he throws

1438
00:56:44,120 --> 00:56:47,520
Speaker 2: it so hard he wears the glasses. He's got the stash. Hey, no,

1439
00:56:47,520 --> 00:56:51,040
Speaker 2: no glasses, tire no glasses. Might think the glass, yeah,

1440
00:56:51,080 --> 00:56:52,880
Speaker 2: someone else, but he's got the mustache. Mustache is for

1441
00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:54,520
Speaker 2: the show. I'm sure Gary and Keith have a lot

1442
00:56:54,520 --> 00:56:55,920
Speaker 2: of fun things say about the mustache.

1443
00:56:56,040 --> 00:56:59,719
Speaker 1: Definitely. And then Wednesday, Mattinee afternoon, twelve twenty start in

1444
00:56:59,719 --> 00:57:02,320
Speaker 1: the East Coast, Chris Bassivers, Charlie Morton, a couple of

1445
00:57:02,360 --> 00:57:04,920
Speaker 1: pictures of there a couple pitchers. Morton started off the

1446
00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:07,040
Speaker 1: year cold. If you guys have listened to any of

1447
00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:09,279
Speaker 1: my Facebook fancy baseball content, I told everyone that he

1448
00:57:09,400 --> 00:57:10,080
Speaker 1: was going to be good.

1449
00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:12,080
Speaker 2: Please trade for Charlie Morton because it's still going to

1450
00:57:12,120 --> 00:57:14,759
Speaker 2: be really good. He's been fantastic over the last month. Again,

1451
00:57:14,800 --> 00:57:17,000
Speaker 2: he's a premier pitcher in the National League. Still in

1452
00:57:17,040 --> 00:57:19,480
Speaker 2: his ripe old age. He's gonna be very tough to

1453
00:57:19,520 --> 00:57:19,960
Speaker 2: trifle with.

1454
00:57:20,040 --> 00:57:21,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was looking at the weather because I wanted

1455
00:57:21,840 --> 00:57:23,760
Speaker 1: to see what it would look like, because Atlanta around

1456
00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:26,600
Speaker 1: this time of the year is pretty intolerable to be in.

1457
00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:28,960
Speaker 1: It's less intolerable than when you get later. You feel

1458
00:57:28,960 --> 00:57:30,880
Speaker 1: like August September is worse. I don't know. I went

1459
00:57:30,920 --> 00:57:33,160
Speaker 1: to school in South Carolina, as many of you will know,

1460
00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:36,520
Speaker 1: relatively close. Columbia and Atlanta are a few hours away.

1461
00:57:36,560 --> 00:57:38,800
Speaker 1: It's the same climate for the most part. As soon

1462
00:57:38,840 --> 00:57:41,000
Speaker 1: as it hit like June, it was just like hot,

1463
00:57:41,240 --> 00:57:43,919
Speaker 1: thick weather. And looking at the weather, I believe higher

1464
00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:47,120
Speaker 1: percent who humidity means it's more human correct, of course,

1465
00:57:47,400 --> 00:57:48,960
Speaker 1: could that possibly mean? I don't know. I feel like

1466
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:51,560
Speaker 1: sometimes you can be like there's ten percent higher higher

1467
00:57:51,640 --> 00:57:54,240
Speaker 1: means more in Laura. Less meteorologists, you don't have to

1468
00:57:54,240 --> 00:57:57,480
Speaker 1: be theroologists. Look at numbers. Well, it's gonna be a

1469
00:57:57,520 --> 00:58:00,160
Speaker 1: thick one ridiculous this week because eighty four percent scent

1470
00:58:00,320 --> 00:58:04,080
Speaker 1: humidity with seventy one degrees, which is interesting because it's

1471
00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:06,400
Speaker 1: gonna feel just like a swamp per the evening. Yeah, yeah,

1472
00:58:06,640 --> 00:58:08,760
Speaker 1: at night, then it's gonna be like eighty five ish

1473
00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:11,520
Speaker 1: with eighty one percent humidity, and then the following day

1474
00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:14,120
Speaker 1: and there's also gonna be just random rain throughout these

1475
00:58:14,160 --> 00:58:15,760
Speaker 1: so the humidity could go up. Maybe I don't know

1476
00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:18,400
Speaker 1: how it works. Eighty three percent on Wednesday, it is

1477
00:58:18,440 --> 00:58:21,040
Speaker 1: going to be thick air in Atlanta. It looks I've

1478
00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:22,120
Speaker 1: got a full moon on Wednesday too.

1479
00:58:22,160 --> 00:58:23,880
Speaker 2: For all people at home marks scrolling on weather dot

1480
00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:25,000
Speaker 2: com right now is keep an eye on that.

1481
00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:26,680
Speaker 1: Make make sure you have no where walls in your neighborhood.

1482
00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:29,080
Speaker 1: And I promise by the end of this year I'll

1483
00:58:29,160 --> 00:58:31,520
Speaker 1: learn humidity percentages. Nothing to learn.

1484
00:58:31,760 --> 00:58:33,440
Speaker 2: The higher number is like anything else, Like you know,

1485
00:58:33,520 --> 00:58:35,120
Speaker 2: like any percentage that's higher.

1486
00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:36,160
Speaker 1: Golf higher scores bad.

1487
00:58:36,280 --> 00:58:39,400
Speaker 2: It's not percent Golf dot comra and weather dot com.

1488
00:58:39,440 --> 00:58:41,680
Speaker 2: How would you not think that a higher humidity percentage

1489
00:58:41,880 --> 00:58:42,400
Speaker 2: was more human.

1490
00:58:42,480 --> 00:58:44,240
Speaker 1: I don't know. Sometimes, like you know, because people put

1491
00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:46,480
Speaker 1: humidifiers in their house and they'll be like, crank that up.

1492
00:58:46,680 --> 00:58:48,800
Speaker 1: I don't Maybe that's good. I can't fast for that.

1493
00:58:49,680 --> 00:58:51,120
Speaker 1: But that's the Braves.

1494
00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:52,720
Speaker 2: You want you want to win the division, you gotta

1495
00:58:52,720 --> 00:58:54,080
Speaker 2: beat the Braves. You set it in April, when we're

1496
00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:55,960

Speaker 2: They are the world defending world seriously, aampions. They've been

1501
00:59:00,640 --> 00:59:03,160
Speaker 2: the class of National Leagueese as long back as we

1502
00:59:03,200 --> 00:59:03,960

Speaker 1: This is it. Y gotta beat the Braves. God beat him.

Speaker 1: You want to be there contemporary prove it. I like,

1505
00:59:08,960 --> 00:59:11,479
Speaker 1: I'm still in shock that they've traded for Robinson Cano,

1506
00:59:11,720 --> 00:59:14,000
Speaker 1: Like I I'm trying to find out more information on

1507

1509
00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:20,680
Speaker 2: Ghost Face Killer was attendance for Keith and Nanda's retirement ceremony.

1510
00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:22,880
Speaker 2: Took just a hilarious picture with Steve Cohen.

1511
00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:26,040
Speaker 1: That picture with Steve Cohen might be like that should

1512
00:59:26,120 --> 00:59:28,680
Speaker 1: that should be a picture that flies around Twitter a

1513
00:59:28,720 --> 00:59:30,560
Speaker 1: little bit because you had ghost Face Killer in his

1514

Speaker 1: posse round with Steve Cohen wearing the Wu Tang hat

1515
00:59:34,040 --> 00:59:36,680
Speaker 1: throwing up the sign. It was hilarious and the mess

1516
00:59:36,720 --> 00:59:38,760

1517
00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:41,040
Speaker 1: board this whole weekend. Yeah legends. Oh yeah, they've just

1518
00:59:41,080 --> 00:59:43,920
Speaker 1: traded for Robinson for cash. This is this is trying

1519
00:59:43,920 --> 00:59:45,480
Speaker 1: to get in the Mets head. Oh, this is one.

1520
00:59:46,080 --> 00:59:48,320
Speaker 1: He might be cut after the series. They might say

1521
00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:50,400
Speaker 1: to play against the Mets. Cut him. They want to

1522
00:59:50,440 --> 00:59:52,840
Speaker 1: learn he They're hoping he knows some trade secrets. And

1523
00:59:53,040 --> 00:59:55,480
Speaker 1: Robinson Cano really is a true Met who are still

1524
00:59:55,480 --> 00:59:58,080
Speaker 1: paying him twenty four million dollars? He will give up nothing,

1525
00:59:58,640 --> 01:00:01,640
Speaker 1: that's so not true, give up everything. Oh my god,

Speaker 2: on vacation, so we got no numbers to crunch right now,

1531
01:00:12,840 --> 01:00:15,080
Speaker 2: but we want you guys to help us think about

1532

Speaker 2: episode by episode, basically that in competition.

1534
01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:22,800
Speaker 1: I definitely lost the first one. Mark lost the first

1535
01:00:22,800 --> 01:00:24,200
Speaker 1: one because he thought that keithn ed Spee would be

1536
01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:26,160
Speaker 1: under two minutes and thirty seconds. There was a world

1537
01:00:26,240 --> 01:00:28,280
Speaker 1: where ether and this didn't even start his speech. He

1538
01:00:28,320 --> 01:00:29,480
Speaker 1: was up at the podium for two.

1539
01:00:29,320 --> 01:00:31,320
Speaker 2: And a half minutes, so literally it was it was

1540

Speaker 2: a bad guess by you, but you'll deserve flus that one. Yes,

1541
01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:36,080
Speaker 2: we've kind of narrowed it down to two punishments for

1542
01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:37,520
Speaker 2: Mark and I and they're both kind of the same

1543
01:00:37,560 --> 01:00:39,360
Speaker 2: but kind of different. And this is gonna be done

1544
01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:43,000
