1
00:00:01,800 --> 00:00:05,120
Speaker 1: It was opening day in the Bronx and the Yankees

2
00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:08,719
Speaker 1: were taking on the Marlins. Will Warren making his second

3
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:11,440
Speaker 1: start of the season and the Yankees trying to win

4
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:13,960
Speaker 1: their third straight. I pick up their sixth win of

5
00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:15,760
Speaker 1: the season. Could they get it done in front of

6
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:19,080
Speaker 1: the home crowd? My recap, your reactions coming up next.

7
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:26,439
Speaker 1: This is Pinstright Territory. Wanted to talk at dol. How's

8
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:31,280
Speaker 1: it going everybody? Nothing like a win in the home opener. Now.

9
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 1: I haven't done the Nostra Derek thing this year because

10
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 1: I just haven't done a lot of pregame stuff. But

11
00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:40,839
Speaker 1: I will note that today I put Aaron Judge on

12
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:42,599
Speaker 1: the thumbnail and he hit a home run. And then

13
00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:44,879
Speaker 1: when I was building out my intro to set up

14
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:49,040
Speaker 1: the show, I put Ben Rice in the intro before

15
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 1: he hit home run. So very much a Nostra Derrek

16
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 1: kind of day. But I hope everybody's doing well on

17
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 1: this Friday afternoon, this good Friday. It was a very

18
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 1: good Friday for the Yankees. Aaron Judge w went deep.

19
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 1: Ben Rice went deep again. The Yankees put up eight

20
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,319
Speaker 1: runs to the Marlins two runs, and that means the

21
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 1: Yankees pick up their sixth win of the season. Today

22
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:12,440
Speaker 1: was one of those days where the Yankees just hit

23
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,720
Speaker 1: a ton of baseballs, very very hard. They also scored

24
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 1: a few runs on things that weren't hits. You know,

25
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 1: they had a basis loaded walk, Judge got plunked with

26
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:22,320
Speaker 1: the bases loaded. There was a run that scored on

27
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 1: a wild pitch. Will Warren. I thought he was very

28
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 1: sharp today. He went on cruise control. He did give

29
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,840
Speaker 1: up a couple of home runs, but you know, overall,

30
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 1: a very solid performance. One of the best parts of

31
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 1: Opening Day, though, I thought was kind of ruined. I

32
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 1: loved the music that they have for the opening ceremony

33
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,760
Speaker 1: today to introduce everybody. But on the Yes Network you

34
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 1: couldn't hear the PA announcer saying anyone's name, and you

35
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 1: couldn't hear the reaction to the crowd, which is almost

36
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 1: as fun. The only person you could really hear it

37
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 1: for was Cam Schultzer because the crowd went absolutely ballistic

38
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 1: for him. But anyway, recently, my buddy Rob called something whack.

39
00:01:58,120 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 1: I hadn't heard that in a while, and maybe laugh

40
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 1: so I've been waiting for the opportunity to use it.

41
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 1: That was whack. My friends, that was whack. But the

42
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 1: Yankees pick up a W. Let's go ahead and take

43
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 1: a look at the full screen score bug here and

44
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 1: you can see the top performers. Aaron Judge two for

45
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 1: three with a home run his third of the year.

46
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,639
Speaker 1: Three RBIs Ben Rice his second home run of the year,

47
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:25,919
Speaker 1: a double and three RBIs also Xavier Edwards at a

48
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 1: home run for the Marlins. Will Warren picks up his

49
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: first W on the season. He is one to zer

50
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: with a two point six one ERA. The Yankees team

51
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 1: ERA on the season now one point one four outstanding performance.

52
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 1: Let's go ahead and get to the recaps. Go I've

53
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: got Terrence Kem joining in just a few minutes, but

54
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 1: I will walk you guys through the opening day in

55
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: case you missed it. So rough start out of the

56
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 1: gate for wil Warren gave up a home run to

57
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 1: Xavier Edwards, who is not a power hitter. Smoked the

58
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 1: home run into the right field porch. Pitch right down

59
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 1: the middle, I thought in the first inning he got

60
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 1: away with a few pitches that were right down the middle.

61
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 1: But he did get a couple of strikeouts right away.

62
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,800
Speaker 1: He did strikeout six today overall, and through. You know,

63
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 1: pretty solid game. First home run that the Yankees had

64
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 1: allowed all season. That surprised me. I didn't even notice that,

65
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 1: but yeah, they've been keeping the baseball in the ballpark.

66
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 1: Yankees did bounce right back walk to Trent Grisham, and

67
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 1: then Aaron Judge the captain, and Aaron Judge had a

68
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 1: very good game. He hit his third home run of

69
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 1: the season. Now he's only hitting one eighty five, but

70
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 1: beginning to heat up. You remember he hit a couple

71
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 1: of balls very hard that were outs in the last

72
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: game of the road trip, and now he is, you know,

73
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 1: starting to heat up. At home home run today and

74
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 1: he ripped a line drive in his lasted bat. He

75
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 1: also stole a base, so feeling very comfortable. Got the

76
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: ops already up to seven eighty six. So nice day

77
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 1: for the captain. And we had a couple of people

78
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 1: complaining about Aaron Judge whining about the strikeouts. Early on.

79
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 1: Somebody said, and I swear to god, there's a quote

80
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 1: Aaron Judge is broken. What. First of all, don't smoke crack.

81
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:22,159
Speaker 1: Don't smoke crack. Judge will be absolutely fine if you

82
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 1: are hating on Aaron Judge. Five games into the season.

83
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: You have a serious crack addiction and you need to

84
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: get it taken care of. I do worry about him

85
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 1: taking one hundred mile an hour fastball to the inside

86
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: of his wrist. That scared me a little bit, But

87
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 1: Judge will be absolutely fine. Saying that Aaron Judge is

88
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,679
Speaker 1: broken is like saying that the sun is broken because

89
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 1: a cloud passes in front of it. He's not gonna

90
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:47,920
Speaker 1: hit a home run every day. He's not gonna get

91
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:49,679
Speaker 1: a hit every day. He's not even gonna do something

92
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 1: productive every day. But at the end of the season,

93
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 1: if he stays healthy, if you look at his stats,

94
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,039
Speaker 1: he's gonna have between forty five and sixty home runs,

95
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,160
Speaker 1: maybe even more, but I doubt he'll have less. He's

96
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:05,039
Speaker 1: probably gonna hit between two eighty and three forty and

97
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 1: he's gonna drive in between one hundred and one hundred

98
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:10,719
Speaker 1: and forty runs. I mean, he's gonna be fine, So

99
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 1: let's not worry about Aaron Josh. I'm also not worried

100
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 1: about Ben Rice because Ben Rice is off to a

101
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,159
Speaker 1: hot start. He had one hundred and ten point nine

102
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,280
Speaker 1: mile an hour home run three hundred and fifty three feet. Uh.

103
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,599
Speaker 1: But Yeah, he's swinging the bat really really well out

104
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 1: of the gate, hitting over four hundred. Jazz had a

105
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 1: couple of stolen bases today. He also hit a double.

106
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 1: I think that him stealing bases and feeling confident and

107
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 1: running the base as well means that he's starting to

108
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,920
Speaker 1: feel a bit more comfortable getting into the rhythm of

109
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 1: the season. A little bit more would not shock me

110
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 1: if he gets a hot streak going here pretty soon.

111
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 1: There was one interesting play today that didn't love cab

112
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 1: Iira tried to bunt with Jazz on third base and

113
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 1: two outs. I'm not a fan of bunting with two

114
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 1: outs and a guy on third Now. He almost beat

115
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 1: it out. He made it close. It was an interesting play,

116
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 1: but it ultimately did not work out. But Warren was

117
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 1: good today. I'll break him down in a minute when

118
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 1: we get to the pitcher spotlight. Jake Bird was overpowering.

119
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: We got a couple of calls about him that I

120
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 1: will play when TK joins. And obviously a good day

121
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 1: for Ben Rice, good day for the captain, good day

122
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 1: for Will Warren and also Brent Hedrick looked really good today.

123
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 1: He's having a good start to the season. So the

124
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:30,840
Speaker 1: Yanks now six and one on the year. What do

125
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 1: you say, mister John Sterling, Yankees win. Oh, let's go,

126
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 1: it's it goes game over, Yankees wins. Yankees. There we go,

127
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,600
Speaker 1: mister John Sterling. I miss him in the booteman, I

128
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:56,280
Speaker 1: miss him. But a lot of belt candidates today, I

129
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 1: mean you really could have gone with a number of

130
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 1: different guys and had an argument. I mean you had

131
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 1: Aaron Judge drove in three, and he added a ton

132
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 1: of win probability with that home run early in the game.

133
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 1: Will Warren with a really good start today, but ultimately

134
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 1: I decided on ben Rice. Ben Rice first belt of

135
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 1: the season, and with that he pulls into second place

136
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 1: behind Max Freed and Cam Schlittler, who both have two.

137
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 1: Jake Bird also has a belt. Could have gone with

138
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 1: the captain. We'll give an honorable mention to the captain.

139
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:47,560
Speaker 1: Really really nice start. Also honorable mention to Will Warren.

140
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 1: We'll talk more about him. So Will Warren today, six

141
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 1: innings of really good baseball, two runs allowed. When he

142
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 1: gets into cruise control is really really good. He just

143
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 1: throws strike after strike after strike, thirty six fastballs, twenty

144
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 1: four sinkers today. So you know, just like Cam Schlittler,

145
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:12,320
Speaker 1: mixing in the fastball and the sinker. They both look

146
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: very similar coming out of the hand. And again no walks.

147
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 1: So the Yankees continue to pound the strike zone. Their

148
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 1: starters have been pounding the strike zone this year every

149
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 1: single time out, and that is a good way to

150
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: win some games and to take command of the game

151
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 1: and control the game. Ninety six point one on the

152
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:37,400
Speaker 1: top V low from Will Warren, and we got TK

153
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 1: joining in the background and making all sorts of stupid

154
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 1: fucking noises. We'll have him on in just a minute.

155
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 1: I think he's I don't know what he's garging over there,

156
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,679
Speaker 1: but I hope it's water. But let's go ahead and

157
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:51,120
Speaker 1: talk about the starting pitcher comparison here. So I was

158
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 1: worried about this one. You know, we had Uri Perez

159
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:56,440
Speaker 1: going up against us, and he's a guy who throws

160
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 1: one hundred and you know, I worry that he was

161
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:02,079
Speaker 1: just gonna blow away the Yankee today. But six walks

162
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: did him in and four earned runs. And again Will

163
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 1: Warren just cruising. Six innings of two run ball, no walks,

164
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 1: six strikeouts. So throwing strikes a lot of times can

165
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 1: be the difference for all you young pitchers out there.

166
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 1: So nice job. Once again, the Yankees win a pretty

167
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 1: good pitching matchup. Let's go ahead and thank our sponsor

168
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 1: for today Fox won, and then we'll bring on TK

169
00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:31,560
Speaker 1: if he's done gargling or whatever he was gargling. Anyway,

170
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 1: First of all, shout out to Fox one. Not only

171
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:38,719
Speaker 1: do they have baseball Saturday afternoon Baseball on Fox one,

Speaker 1: they have all sorts of great stuff that got the

173
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 1: World Cup coming up. Talked about this with Frankie on

174
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:45,960
Speaker 1: My show yesterday. World Cup is exciting. I'm not a

175
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:51,559
Speaker 1: big soccer guy domestically, but I love the international soccer soccer,

176
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 1: and I love the pride that comes with these big

177
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,840
Speaker 1: international events, and it's fun. They've got next level Chef

178
00:09:57,880 --> 00:09:59,839
Speaker 1: with Gordon Ramsey. I've been watching a ton of that lately.

179
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,680
Speaker 1: I don't know why, but I just find Gordon Ramsey

180
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 1: stuff to be just really, really really fun. And then

181
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:12,840

188
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 1: gargler in chief. It's just a reaction. Mister Terrence Kim.

189
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: Who is He's been sipping on some of Willie Beeman's

190
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 1: invisible juice there he is. Hey, mister Terrence Kem, how

191
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: you doing, my friends? That's what you were sipping on

192
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 1: invisible juice?

193
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 2: Gargling, gargling. That's crazy, man. I was making sure my

194
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 2: microphone was working all right for the people out there.

195
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 2: I don't know myself, but I should have done that first.

196
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, I don't know if they could hear you,

197
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:53,319
Speaker 1: but I could hear you in my headphones. I don't

198
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 1: know if they can hear the green room, but I

199
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,560
Speaker 1: could definitely hear you. But anyway, TK, did you watch

200
00:10:57,559 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 1: the game? Did you catch the home opener?

201
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 2: Yes? I watched the game. I catch the home opener,

202
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 2: Love it, Yankee six and one thought Will Warren looked

203
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 2: pretty good stuff. Moves well, just two mistakes essentially, the

204
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:10,959
Speaker 2: first one in the first inning that was kind of

205
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:12,839
Speaker 2: a meat ball right down the middle, and I was like, oh, man,

206
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:14,800
Speaker 2: is he gonna get sheld because we know from last

207
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 2: season when Will Warren gets shelled, boy does he really

208
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 2: get shelled. You know, it's really bad. So I was

209
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 2: wondering early on if it's going to be one of

210
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 2: those starts. It wasn't, so that's a good improvement from

211
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,559
Speaker 2: last season. He was able to collect himself and kind

212
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,200
Speaker 2: of reel it back in. I thought the sweeper had

213
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 2: really great movement on it. Sinker as well. What can

214
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 2: you say from Yankee pitching, They've pitched really well. Incredible

215
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 2: play by Cody Bellinger, by the way, the focus to

216
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 2: make that play in left field, absolutely great, great play.

217
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 2: Early contender for Play of the Year. Ben Rece looks great,

218
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:47,839
Speaker 2: Aaron Judge with the homer, so he's gonna be fine.

219
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,800
Speaker 2: Everybody who's hating on that, I don't know what you're doing.

220
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 2: Derek already asked you to stop smoking crack. I'll cover

221
00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:01,160
Speaker 2: it in my show. But Ben Rice early on looking fantastic.

222
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 1: Hitting four h nine to begin the season with an

223
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 1: ops over one thousand, over thirteen hundred. Right now, I

224
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 1: got to add an extra digit in there. I think

225
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 1: it's one of my widgets missed out. Heah, we're ironing

226
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 1: out the kinks here, but let's pull up the box

227
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:16,800
Speaker 1: score TK before we take some some voicemails here. So

228
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,040
Speaker 1: you know, a couple of hits for Judge, couple of

229
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 1: hits for Rice, base knock for Jazz Bellinger one for four,

230
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 1: Stanton zero for five. I hope they didn't cool him

231
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: off by giving him a couple of days off when

232
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 1: he was hot. I feel like that's something that Boone

233
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 1: does from time to time that worris me a little bit.

234
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 1: What about you, TK, Yeah.

235
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 2: I think that that's a reasonable concern. I understand the

236
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:39,760
Speaker 2: plan going in where they're trying to keep him as

237
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 2: healthy as possible, and the Yankees like to do that

238
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 2: when there's a travel day or an off day, they

239
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 2: like to give a guy an extra day. But I

240
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 2: guess I got to see what he does tomorrow. If

241
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:51,920
Speaker 2: he strikes out three times again, then yes I'll be concerned.

242
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 2: But I'm not extremely concerned at this moment. But maybe

243
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:58,680
Speaker 2: that is something to look at that every time he

244
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:00,520
Speaker 2: gets an extra day or two day in a row,

245
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 2: if he has a rough game coming back. But for

246
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 2: right now, I'm kind of like I'd rather him be

247
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:06,439
Speaker 2: on the field you know what I mean.

248
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm with you. Okay, let's take a couple of

249
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 1: voicemails here, taber.

250
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 3: Talk stay, Derek, how are you favor talk on the

251
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:16,679
Speaker 3: taskkill so our home opener and oh my god, Yankee

252
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,400
Speaker 3: fans are happy. I mean, it looks like we're up

253
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 3: six to two in the eighth and it looks like

254
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 3: the Yank's going to be six and one judge hit another.

255
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 3: Ben Rice is crushing it, the Yankees are pitching. It's

256
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 3: just been just outstanding. Will Warren good game. I mean,

257
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:38,079
Speaker 3: he's just got to be smiling right now if you

258
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:42,199
Speaker 3: want to nippick though, which is why I'm calling Ryan McMahon.

259
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 3: I don't know, man coming into the game hitting sixty seven,

260
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:52,720
Speaker 3: he did walk het two walks. But he's a great

261
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 3: field or one of the premiere fielding third baseman. But man,

262
00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,200
Speaker 3: let's face it, he can't hit. He just can't. And

263
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 3: Sewing from last year, what did he how many homeoreness

264
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 3: did he have with the Yankees? Two or three? You know,

265
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:07,679
Speaker 3: we got him after the trade deadline. I don't know

266
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 3: about Ryan McMahon, and I'm really pulling for the guy.

267
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 3: He's a really nice guy. Seems to be and a

268
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:16,560
Speaker 3: great fielder, but he can't hit. I don't know your

269
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 3: fall from that, all right, let's go Yankees.

270
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 1: I don't know if I have different thoughts than he has.

271
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 1: I mean, he's sitting fifty nine with a two thirty

272
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 1: eight on base percentage. It is early, But I've never

273
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 1: been a huge fan of Ryan McMahon, and to be

274
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 1: honest with you, I would almost rather see Oswaldo Cabrera

275
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 1: playing third. I mean, he's not that much worse defensively

276
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 1: than McMahon. Mcmmhon's a great defensive third baseman, but I

277
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 1: think Oswaldo would probably give you more offensively. What do

278
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:41,120
Speaker 1: you think?

279
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's like a fair criticism to have.

280
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 2: But for me, the only problem I have with McMahon

281
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 2: is the money that he makes. Sixteen million is kind

282
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 2: of a lot for a glove first first baseman, ideally

283
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 2: third baseman. Yeah, ideally a corner infielder, but ideally he

284
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 2: would hit a little bit more than that. Obviously, the

285
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 2: defense is there, but sixteen million for essentially a platoon

286
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:10,080
Speaker 2: between Rosario and McMahon at over there at third, I

287
00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:12,800
Speaker 2: think it's a bit much, especially since I'm looking at

288
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 2: the fangraft's payroll situation here, and so it looks like

289
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 2: he's making sixteen this year, and he makes sixteen next

290
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 2: year if there is a season, and then he's a

291
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,240
Speaker 2: free agent, so you got basically two more years on

292
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:28,240
Speaker 2: the books with him. I think, Derek, it'll kind of

293
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 2: it's sort of a thing of like kind of let's

294
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 2: wait and see how this works out.

295
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:33,920
Speaker 1: Could you see a.

296
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 2: Scenario where, oh, man, like the guy that I'd really

297
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,320
Speaker 2: want to play third would be like an Austin Riley

298
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 2: with Atlanta who signed long term and he has a

299
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 2: lot of money, and if they're out of it and

300
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 2: they want to shed some payroll and get some prospect

301
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:50,600
Speaker 2: capital that the Yankees do have a lot of pitching

302
00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 2: depth in the prospect and like a Ben hass you know,

303
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 2: a Chase Hampton at Cunningham like, guys like that are

304
00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 2: starting to become a little bit expendable now with the

305
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 2: with the pitching, that's a merged if you're going to

306
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,160
Speaker 2: do a little switch a roof, like we'll give you McMahon,

307
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 2: you give us Riley just so you have somebody playing

308
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 2: third for the for the for the time being, and

309
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:10,160
Speaker 2: then you get yourself a bunch of pitching depth. I

310
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 2: would be extremely interested. I don't know if Atlanta would

311
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 2: want to move off of him, but it's a possibility.

312
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 1: It's interesting. He hit two sixty with sixteen homers last year.

313
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 1: This year off to a slow start two fifty six,

314
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 1: forty nine. Ops. I think he had a good year

315
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:27,840
Speaker 1: back in. It was like twenty three or twenty yeah,

316
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 1: twenty three, yeah, two eighty one with thirty seven home runs.

317
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:32,720
Speaker 1: If he gets back to that guy, yeah, I don't

318
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 1: think they're gonna move him. But I don't know. I

319
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 1: don't know what the deal is with uh. You know

320
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 1: that one breakout season before that he was he hit

321
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:43,080
Speaker 1: thirty eight home runs in twenty two thirty. So actually

322
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 1: he actually had a few good years with the power.

323
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 1: I didn't realize he hit such but his power is

324
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 1: definitely taken a tip. I wonder if he's had injury

325
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 1: problems over the last couple of years. Interesting. Oh, I

326
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 1: take another another call here. This is Brian, just one

327
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 1: to say quick.

328
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:06,040
Speaker 4: I have been very pleased with Bird. He's been an

329
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 4: awesome little addition. I know we had him last year,

330
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:12,639
Speaker 4: but I wasn't expecting much after his brief stint with

331
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 4: the team last year and then being instantly sent down

332
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:19,040
Speaker 4: to the minors not to return. So just all the

333
00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 4: big spots he's been in early in this season, kind

334
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 4: of showing what he's actually made of.

335
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:25,440
Speaker 2: Just love to see it.

336
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:27,359
Speaker 4: Man. Now, let's hope the rest of our high leverage

337
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,080
Speaker 4: you guys can come in and lock this game down.

338
00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:30,639
Speaker 4: All right, let's go Yanks, finish up.

339
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:33,440
Speaker 1: Thanks for the call, Brian. Yeah, I've been really impressed

340
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 1: with Jake Bird. I've been really impressed with the entire bullpen. Honestly,

341
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 1: Brent Hendrick has also really impressed me. He's looked good.

342
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:43,359
Speaker 1: I mean, look they're dominating. Oh well, yeah, Joe Schmoe,

343
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,720
Speaker 1: that's your Joe Schmoe pick from last week. But yeah,

344
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:50,280
Speaker 1: I mean I still think Lagroney would fit rather nicely

345
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:51,959
Speaker 1: in the pen, don't you. I mean we have Does

346
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 1: Caid Winquist actually exist? Has anybody ever proven that?

347
00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:58,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's like theoretical right now, he's just like hating

348
00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 2: the matrix. But there was a quote from Jeff Passen.

349
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 2: He was saying that he thinks legron Hey will be

350
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 2: in the Yankees bullpen by the second half. Now, he's

351
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,680
Speaker 2: got great stuff and i'd love I do want to

352
00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:10,120
Speaker 2: see him in the Bronx this year, and I think

353
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:11,640
Speaker 2: that you will see him in the Bronx this year.

354
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 2: But to me, it's I don't want another job at

355
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 2: Chamberlain situation Derek, where they're kind of he's a starter,

356
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 2: he's stretched out to a starter, you stick him in

357
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 2: the bullpen back to a starter, and you don't really

358
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:23,560
Speaker 2: know and then you end up hurting the guy because

359
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:25,639
Speaker 2: he throws so hard. Like I just want them to

360
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 2: be careful about that. So I'd rather see him in

361
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 2: the starting rotation in the future. But I I think

362
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:34,919
Speaker 2: if you're going to put him in the bullpen this season,

363
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 2: it's that would be his role period. I don't want

364
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:39,440
Speaker 2: to see him starting any games, just because I want

365
00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,160
Speaker 2: it to be very consistent so he at least gets

366
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:43,159
Speaker 2: the experience of being in the major leagues and pitching

367
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 2: against major league hitters. But next season, my intention would

368
00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:47,959
Speaker 2: be for him to be in the rotation.

369
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:50,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, you want to take a look at the top

370
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:54,280
Speaker 1: metric leaders for the Yankees so far this season and see,

371
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:57,240
Speaker 1: you know, how we're doing in terms of exit velocities

372
00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:01,120
Speaker 1: and so forth. So no surprise, Josh Carlos Stanton has

373
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:03,200
Speaker 1: the hardest hit ball so far, one hundred and fourteen

374
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,359
Speaker 1: point four, Judge at one oh nine. You know, let

375
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 1: me refresh. Let's see if there's any updates. I feel

376
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:10,239
Speaker 1: like some of somebody hit Yeah, Rice at win one

377
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,639
Speaker 1: ten today, so we got up there. So Rice one

378
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,720
Speaker 1: ten point nine today, so he passed John Carlos Stanton,

379
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,040
Speaker 1: and Judge is still in the top five. So the

380
00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 1: top thrown speed Cam Schlitler, no surprise ere one hundred

381
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:27,679
Speaker 1: point one, Weather's ninety eight point nine, Will warrened ninety

382
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 1: seven point nine, Camillo Dovall ninety seven point eight, and

383
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 1: Max Freed ninety seven. And then in terms of the

384
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:37,160
Speaker 1: home runs, go ahead and refresh that. So Ben Ryce

385
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:39,400
Speaker 1: still has the longest home run four hundred and twenty

386
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:43,080
Speaker 1: seven feet. Goldschmidt went over four hundred the other day

387
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 1: in Seattle, and then you know Rice pulling up the

388
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:50,680
Speaker 1: last place here with uh, he's sort's like a Ben

389
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:52,679
Speaker 1: Rice sandwich. He's got the longest home run and the

390
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 1: shortest home run this year.

391
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,440
Speaker 2: I got to ask you though, that homer that Judge

392
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:58,399
Speaker 2: hit in the first inning today, Like, how did that

393
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 2: only go three eighties? I thought that was smoked off

394
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:03,919
Speaker 2: the bat, dude watching the game like it came out

395
00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 2: the maybe because of the microphone. The crack of the

396
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,159
Speaker 2: bat was just really crisp. I thought that was four hundred.

397
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:11,480
Speaker 1: So it was one hundred and one point two off

398
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 1: the bat, But I think it was just the launch

399
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,639
Speaker 1: angle was too high. And Michael Kay knew it was

400
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,640
Speaker 1: a home run immediately and he said, oh, he goes

401
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 1: the longest home run I've ever seen it in my

402
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: own fucking life. And then it goes like four rows deep.

403
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:27,040
Speaker 1: I'm like thatll happened there anyway. I was just shout

404
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,439
Speaker 1: out to Michael Kay and he's one of the goads.

405
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,360
Speaker 1: All right, TK, So you're going live when.

406
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 2: Right after the show, there may be a couple of

407
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,560
Speaker 2: minutes of lapse just to make sure that I got

408
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,159
Speaker 2: everything set up so I don't have any mishaps like

409
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:41,879
Speaker 2: I did last week. But we're gonna make sure that

410
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 2: everything's ready to rock. So probably you know, between like

411
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 2: two minutes and three minutes before I get on live

412
00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,879
Speaker 2: after this show, give a little breather for myself and

413
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 2: for all of you out there. But real quick, not

414
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 2: baseball related. I saw Project hill Mary last night. Oh yeah,

415
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,159
Speaker 2: I loved it. It was fantastic. I recommend it to

416
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:01,480
Speaker 2: all of you guys watching out there.

417

Speaker 1: It is.

418
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:03,920
Speaker 2: It's a touch long, it's like three hour movie, but

419
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:07,239
Speaker 2: I absolutely loved it. It's like hope core. So it

420
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 2: gives you like a hopeful kind of feeling for sure.

421
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 1: For sure, ian Is Lawn says, and yet again, Judge,

422
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 1: it's simple. Whatever he hits, he distrusts. All right, ladies

423
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,120
Speaker 1: and gentlemen. Thanks again one more time from John Stirling.
