1
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:26,040
Speaker 1: Wow, uh shit, yup, we swept the Padres. It's not

2
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 1: that we swept the Padres that's shocking. It's the fact

3
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:30,760
Speaker 1: that we swept anybody it's that shocked. The Mets are

4
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:34,160
Speaker 1: playing good baseball, won five of their last six, five

5
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:37,520
Speaker 1: in a row, five in a row. Things feel good

6
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,240
Speaker 1: in the Mets world. Right now, we're gonna talk about

7
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,920
Speaker 1: all that happened in this past series. Got some media

Speaker 1: the state of the team. We're gonna talk a little

10
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 1: bit about the trade deadline this weekend might have changed

11
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:53,599
Speaker 1: people's thoughts, opinions, feel of what could go on at

00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:16,760
Speaker 1: to you guys for the last couple of years. Crazy

23
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:20,000

24
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 1: totally gangs.

25
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 2: I've listened to podcasts in the past where I found

26
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 2: out what the podcasts looked like and I was like, oh,

27
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 2: I don't like this, so then they're later, Yeah, there

28
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 2: was one. I don't listen too much anymore. But the

29
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 2: stuff you should know podcasts, I think it's NPR. I

30
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:32,680
Speaker 2: don't know wh what's it on? Good podcast?

31
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 1: Like? I liked a lot more a couple of years ago,

32
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,319
Speaker 1: but before you knew what he looked like. No, I

33
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 1: just want to like.

34
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:39,920
Speaker 2: I intentionally was like, I never want to know these

35
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 2: people look like ever look like. I don't want to

36
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:43,959
Speaker 2: ever break that wall. But happy some of you guys

37
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 2: that do. We appreciated YouTube listeners. That's how we make

38
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 2: our money. So it's nice to put you guys tune

39
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:47,960

Speaker 1: drop us a rating, drop a s review, download and subscribe.

42
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 1: We really do appreciate it. Let's go ahead and get

43
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 1: going into this cause there's not been many positive episodes

44
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 1: this year, we had like a little little two week stretch.

45
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 1: We're having a little bit of a stretch right now,

46
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 1: and it does coincide beautifully with Grimace thrown out the

47
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:08,080
Speaker 1: first pitch, and the team hasn't lost since Grimace's step

48
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: foot on the city field. In City Field, the gay

49
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 1: Mets ever since June's come around and they've changed their

50
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:16,360
Speaker 1: logos and everything to pride. The Mets have been winning

51
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 1: a lot more games and just straight up Jad Martinez

52
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 1: putting this team on his back offensively has really changed

53
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,919
Speaker 1: the outlook of this team moving forward fully.

54
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 2: Jaj Martinez won two games single handedly for the Mets

55
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,079
Speaker 2: this week, both the Thursday walk off against the Marlins

56
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,799
Speaker 2: and the Friday Night Randy game against Matt Walder and

57
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 2: the knuckleball. It's just it's simply what he's doing like this.

58
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 2: He is exactly the guy he's always been. Shame on

59
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,359
Speaker 2: us for doubting him, because we say a lot of

60
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 2: things in this podcast, and we.

61
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,119
Speaker 1: Get a lot of right, we also get a lot wrong.

62
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 2: And that was one that we both weren't as positive

63
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,160
Speaker 2: about as a lot of other Mets fans, and we

64
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 2: were totally fucking wrong. Jadie Martinez has been a lightning

65
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 2: rotch for this team. He's saved them in a way,

66
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 2: and it's such a refreshing feeling for him to be

67
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 2: this professional hitter. It feels like the Mets really haven't

68
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 2: had a guy like this in a while. Like the

69
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 2: the trio of Alonzo, Nimmo, Lindor. I love them all

70
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 2: as players. I think they all compliment each other really well.

71
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 2: But just to have this lynch pin between them, someone

72
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,359
Speaker 2: who takes good that bats, who's aggressive in the right spots,

73
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 2: who has so much power the Zoposi field home runs

74
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 2: this weekend, We're nuts. So when he hit on Saturday,

75
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 2: I never I've never seen a play. It looked like

76
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 2: the inside out of the ball in the inner half

77
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 2: and put it into the ballpen four hundred feet.

78
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: I was shocking.

79
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 2: But just as like there's a clutch factor, it seems

80
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:29,680
Speaker 2: like there's like a stern reverence. He's also the only

81
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:31,640
Speaker 2: player in the roster who's won a World Series.

82
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:32,240
Speaker 1: Title, I believe.

83
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 2: I think that's very relevant because I think only him,

84
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 2: Lindor and Alavino the only ones who ever played in

85
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 2: a World Series yet that I don't know if Alvino.

86
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 1: Was on that Red Sex team. I think he was.

87
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 2: I think he was, no, but then he wouldn't have

88
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 2: won it because I was the team that JRS won

89
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 2: the World Series on. Yeah, so I think actually him

90
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 2: and the Door the only ones the team who have

91
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 2: played in a World Series. That's it's actually very interesting

92
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 2: think about. But there's just like a stern reverence with

93
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 2: JD Martinez right now where there's such a comfortability with

94
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 2: him with the play he's had. He'sn't had a shriek

95
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 2: from Saturday Sunday where he was on base in ten

96
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 2: straight play appearance, ted straight played appearances. He was squeaking

97
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 2: balls through the hole, he was putting him in the gap.

98
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 1: Everything was working. Yeah, I mean, like you said, he

99
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 1: brings that cool, calm, collected attitude. It's like the quiet

100
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: confidence a little bit here. And it also I mean

101
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 1: he talked about it after he hit the walk off

102
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 1: home run two, how things have changed since they had

103
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 1: that player only meeting a lot of different vibes. Gary

104
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 1: and Keith and Ron were talking about it with Steve

105
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,039
Speaker 1: your favorite old moonface over their Steve Gelbs give a

106
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 1: good story about how in the past and the Mets

107
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 1: locker room after the game, guys are on their phones,

108
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 1: kind of keeping to themselves. We're very quiet, doing their

109
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 1: own thing. Now before games, after games, these guys are

110
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 1: all talking to each other. They're talking about the games.

111
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 1: Apparently they have meetings after every single game to go

112
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:40,600
Speaker 1: over what guys did well and what guys felt like

113
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 1: they need to do better, or what they were trying

114
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:45,840
Speaker 1: to work on, whatever the thought processes. And while maybe

115
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 1: that could be overkilled for some teams, it does seem

116
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 1: like whatever this change has been since that player's only meeting,

117
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: whether it's in the vibes, whether it's in the attitude,

118
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,559
Speaker 1: whether it's in the preparation, it has made a difference totally.

119
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 2: Landor talked about that today and his postgame presser as

120
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 2: locker where he just said that the team was and

121
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:05,160
Speaker 2: we started a lot, and it was very obvious team

122
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 2: just from top to bottoms lacking accountability. So most players

123
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 2: just were not It was just it wasn't like an

124
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 2: open form for things that player is only meaning change.

125
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,720
Speaker 2: And also I remember it was the horrible loss of

126
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 2: the Sunday against the Diamondbacks, the Cate Marte game, and

127
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,480
Speaker 2: the Mets took it selfie after that game when they

128
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 2: got on the bus to go of the plane where

129
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 2: they were all like smiling on the bust and people

130
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 2: killed them for that shit, Like, how can this team

131
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,040
Speaker 2: be smiling after a loss? It was like one of

132
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:32,280
Speaker 2: the low points in the season. But I think that

133
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 2: is kind of a function of where the team came from.

134
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,839
Speaker 2: The players only meeting and they're nine and two. Since that, like,

135
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:39,640
Speaker 2: since they smiled for a selfie after a loss, it

136
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:41,840
Speaker 2: just there seems to be a little more collectiveness of

137
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,160
Speaker 2: this team, a little bit more togetherness. And again, I

138
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 2: think a lot of this still start with Jade Martinez.

139
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,279
Speaker 2: Oh grims what I mean grimas too. The Grimma shit

140
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 2: is so funny. Shout out to all of the creators

141
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 2: in Mets worlds who are making these grimmest memes because

142
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 2: they're so fucking fundy. Like one of my new vavorite

143
00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,279
Speaker 2: accounts on Twitter is her name is Diana. She's like,

144
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,920
Speaker 2: she's growing so fast, She's so funny. And there was

145
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:04,719
Speaker 2: another one today. It's like one of my favorite memes

146
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 2: that ever made it onto Mets Twitter. I'm gonna find

147
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 2: it and shout out the person's handle because I tweeted

148
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 2: at them, and I said, I think this is like

149
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,040
Speaker 2: my favorite meme I've I've ever seen.

150
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 1: God, I gotta find it. I gotta find it. I

151
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 1: gotta find it. I gotta find it. I gotta find it.

152
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 2: It's coming, it's coming, it's coming fast. You can talk

153
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 2: a little bit now, and I'm gonna find Okay, and shout.

154
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 1: Out Mike Janella. Two you guys have seen me. Jane's

155
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,719
Speaker 1: a beast. The host during the game and pregame for

156
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 1: the Mets. Someone at city Field today had a City

157
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:32,040
Speaker 1: Connect custom Grimace jersey and that's kind that's kind of sick,

158
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:33,840
Speaker 1: that's kind of awesome. So shout out to that guy

159
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 1: spending one hundred maybe two hundred plus dollars on a

160
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,720
Speaker 1: Grimace jersey. But it looks, honestly, looks pretty clean. I'm

161
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 1: not gonna lie.

162
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 2: I found the tweet from Steph at what year is it?

163
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 2: And it's just how it feels to be a Mets

164
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:47,720
Speaker 2: fan right now. And it's just like Grimace. But like

165
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 2: in the scene of like the gate the Gates of

166
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 2: Heaven opening, it's Grimace in the middle, like instead of

167
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 2: what's supposed to be gone, it.

168
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:55,839
Speaker 1: Was the one to find things never see on Twitter.

169
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:56,920
Speaker 1: It's been amazing.

170
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 2: I just it's the Mets always seem to have these

171
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 2: weird things that spurn rallies and like fun times like

172
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,600
Speaker 2: the parakeet with Uanni Sesspace the game I was at,

173
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 2: which was just a surreal moment.

174
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 1: Remember the dildo with Travis Darnault eight years ago. Donnie Stevenson, Yeah,

175
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:13,240
Speaker 1: Donna Stevens and that one was kind of a miss,

176
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,400
Speaker 1: but at least they tried. But I know for a

177
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 1: fact that as the Mets do, like now, it's a

178
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 1: fun thing with the fans, I know the organization is

179
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 1: gonna take to this and surely run it into the

180
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 1: ground over the next three weeks, but like this is

181
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 1: gonna be a time that we look back on in

182
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 1: years his Mets fans be like, remember that week and

183
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 1: a half when Grimis has shoke hold, because that's what

184
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 1: it is right now he does and just go back

185
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 1: JJ Martins for his second like it's it's it's kind

186
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 1: of all inspiring what he's doing statistically the plate, Like

187
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 1: he did have a pretty rough first month with the team,

188
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 1: but he also didn't have a spring training. Yeah, so

189
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 1: it was just kind of him getting together in the

190
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 1: last week, he's hitting four hundred with a five hundred

191
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 1: on base percentage and a nine hundred slugging percentage. Over

192
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 1: the last two weeks, he's banging three thirty three with

193
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: five home ers, the same amount of walks and strikeouts.

194
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: But then you even zoom out over his last month

195
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 1: to really get into context of how good he's been.

196
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 1: For his last thirty games, one hundred and twenty at bats,

197
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 1: he's a three hundred, four hundred, five hundred guy slash

198
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 1: line with twenty four RBIs. Seven home runs in a

199
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 1: month like that is a generational month and something that's

200
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,120
Speaker 1: really really helped his team. I think we finally, after

201
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 1: all these configurations, have found the lineup alignment that works

202
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 1: the best for everybody's mentality, especially now that when Door's crushing,

203
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 1: Nimo seems to be a little more comfortable. JD at

204
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 1: three keeps it going, Pete is Pete, I have to

205
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 1: hit four, and then after that you just see what happens.

206
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 2: But it feels finally like the floodgates opening on Sunday

207
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 2: was just fucking awesome for this lineup.

208
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, and you mentioned like Nimo has been struggling

209
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:32,439
Speaker 1: up the entire year basically like he started off the

210
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 1: year hot, hitting the ball well, just wasn't getting the luck.

211
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:36,400
Speaker 1: And then he moved to the three hole and it

212
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 1: completely fucked and we talked about in the last episode.

213
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:40,960
Speaker 1: But now since going to the two hole, look at

214
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 1: the games and it just against San Diego. Two hits

215
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 1: on Friday, three hits on Saturday, three hits on Sunday.

216
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 1: Nimo was a guy who was not really getting hot

217
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 1: at that point or yeah, my bad it was two,

218
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 1: two and three, but he was struggling to just get going,

219
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 1: get going consistently getting hits. And it seems like now

220
00:08:57,960 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 1: in the two hole he gets back to that braid

221
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,200
Speaker 1: Nemo brain that we love, where he's like patient aggressiveness

222
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,839
Speaker 1: rather than I'm here to be driving in runs. Also,

223
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 1: Francis Glendora in the leadoff spot's been such a godsend too.

224
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 1: He's been so good in that position. I know we

225
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 1: talked about a last episode, but even today on Sunday

226
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 1: getting that game started with a leadoff home run after

227
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 1: he gave up a run where McGill gave up the

228
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 1: two run walk and then they just kind of dinked

229
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: and joint us a little bit for Lindora to answer

230
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 1: back like that completely changed the vibe of the game too,

231
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 1: put Dylan Sees on the ropes from the start majorly.

232
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 1: Sees has been such a workhorse this year too, and

233
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:31,319
Speaker 1: the Mets jumping all over him. I think it was

234
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 1: only I wrote it today for real world, but this

235
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:35,640
Speaker 1: was only the third time this year Sees hasn't completed

236
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 1: five innings and the start at thirteen starts, and he's

237
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,439
Speaker 1: been like he's been that true belcow type. I think

238
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 1: he has a Gary Cohen calls him today in the

239
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:43,719
Speaker 1: broadcast like type of pictures doesn't real exist in the

240
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,880
Speaker 1: league anymore. And he's kind of been the driving force

241
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: this entire Padres team. I don't think they would be

242
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:50,480
Speaker 1: where they are, which is now a team slightly under

243
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:54,079
Speaker 1: five hundred if not for him, somewhat like independently. And

244
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 1: this was kind of the way that, you know, like

245
00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,040
Speaker 1: a sweep in a three game baseball series is a

246
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 1: difficult thing, spends a lot, but really in retrospect, doesn't

247
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 1: happen that often. Just felt like when we got the

248
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,320
Speaker 1: game on Saturday, all right, tomorrow you're probably gonna get

249
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 1: shut down by six.

250
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:09,679
Speaker 2: You need a big performance if you want to win

251
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:11,959
Speaker 2: this game. And the fact that that first inning, when

252
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,120
Speaker 2: Door pisses on a ball puts in the second deck,

253
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,960
Speaker 2: he hits a home run two and you're bang right away.

254
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 2: Dylan Cees is completely on the ropes. This padres Bult

255
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 2: had been worked relatively not Waldron gave him seven innings

256
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:25,319
Speaker 2: on Friday, but you were just on him and the

257
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 2: whole Francisco indoor thing. This is our this is our

258
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 2: third time doing this as Mets fans like, we gotta

259
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 2: get used. This's gonna happen every year. He just seems

260
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 2: like he's gonna have a bad April and then be

261
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 2: one of the most valuable players in baseball. There's no

262
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 2: two ways about it. He is the most valuable player

263
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 2: in all of baseball. Since we gave him a standing

264
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 2: ovation in the National League. Since we gave him a

265
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 2: standing ovation on April twelfth, his slash line is two

266
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 2: sixty three thirty I think almost five hundred. The ops

267
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,880
Speaker 2: is over eight hundred. It's E's once again, he's going

268
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 2: to be a five to six win player.

269
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 1: He made that amazing play on Saturday, the flip up

270
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 1: the middle. He spent out. He's so good.

271
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 2: We're taken for granted. It's such a such a great

272
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 2: thing to happen on this team.

273
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, we love Francisco Lindor. Sorry, forever doubt in you, Bud, never,

274
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 1: never again, never again, will you catch me doubting Francisco Lindor.

275
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 1: Things were going well, things were going well this series,

276
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 1: for sure, and it was just nice. It was nice

277
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:18,680
Speaker 1: to beat up the Padres again. This is a team

278
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 1: that we are going to have to jump ahead if

279
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 1: you want any chance at making the postseason. Those aspirations

280
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 1: are still a long way away. It is June and

281
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:27,959
Speaker 1: there are still so many games that have to be played.

282
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 1: But it was nice to see the Mets go up

283
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:32,200
Speaker 1: against a team that they need to be better then,

284
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 1: and they were better than them this weekend. It's also

285
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,240
Speaker 1: it's nice to see Padres fans like all depressed and

286
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 1: sad every once in a while too.

287
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, Pacas fans is just like a strange existence.

288
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,559
Speaker 2: I'm reading a I've talked about a lot. I'm reading this.

289
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 1: Book about like the history of Baseball called.

290
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:48,080
Speaker 2: The Lord to the Realm right now, and the Padres

291
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 2: were almost created by Walter O'Malley to fail and be bad,

292
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,559
Speaker 2: Like he wanted to play another team in southern California,

293
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 2: and he put the old general manager that he took

294
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 2: from the brook from the Brooklyn Dodgers to La Dodgers,

295
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 2: Buzzy Vivasi, and he made he put him as a

296
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:05,560
Speaker 2: chairman of that team because you knew he was kind

297
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 2: of an idiot, and he was just like, yeah, just

298
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:09,280
Speaker 2: go out there be my division and just sucks. So

299
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 2: the padres entire existence is basically based on the Dodgers

300
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 2: instructing them to be bad from Walter O'Malley, and they're

301
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 2: just there are sad existence as a franchise.

302
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:17,720
Speaker 1: It's just weird this series.

303
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:19,840
Speaker 2: Like they have a strange roster, they have a strange

304
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 2: ball club man Michilie getting ejected like they're just the

305
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 2: team is not great vibes.

306
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:26,080
Speaker 1: Wow, I see, I didn't know that. But you're reading

307
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 1: that baseball book, that's they're just me and you. If

308
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 1: there's a YouTube video, if there's a Netflix documentary about it,

309
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 1: I'm all over it before anybody. But reading a book

310
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:34,080
Speaker 1: not my thing.

311
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 2: I might like I kind of want to, like I saw,

312
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:39,679
Speaker 2: I've always like fantasized the idea of like doing YouTube stuff,

313
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:41,319
Speaker 2: Like you don't think baseball history is good for YouTube.

314
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,440
Speaker 2: I'd love to turn like the Chapionship Book not into

315
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,520
Speaker 2: YouTube videos. I think you just you you're gonna have

316
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:49,079
Speaker 2: to work really hard because you have to like find.

317
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,960
Speaker 1: You have visual elements. Yeah yeah, and I know, I know.

318
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 2: But like the stories this book are so insanely incredible.

319
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:56,320
Speaker 2: Like I mean, I don't want to pour you guys

320
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:57,679
Speaker 2: more baseball as to you, but I'm reading right now.

321
00:12:57,679 --> 00:12:59,680
Speaker 2: But like the establishing of like the first free agency,

322
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 2: and it was like the first time anybody ever sold

323
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,200
Speaker 2: their players at the deadline because they were all gonna

324
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 2: be free agency next year. And it was the Oakland

325
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 2: A's in nineteen seventy five, coming off three championships. But

326
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 2: the owner had no money, and they tried to literally

327
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,959
Speaker 2: the owner, Charlie Finley, tried to actually sell their best players,

328
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 2: like they had a deal totally in place to sell

329
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 2: Via the Blue to the Yankees for one point five

330
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,560
Speaker 2: million dollars cash, just buy a player, And same with

331
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 2: a and Raley Fingers and Joe Ruthy to the Red

332
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 2: Sox for a million each. And then the commissioner undiated

333
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 2: all because you can't just trade players for cash.

334
00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 1: You can't do that. And then there was a quote

335
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:31,679
Speaker 1: from Joe Ruthy. He was like, huh, I'm worth a

336
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 1: million bucks. That's kind of cool, of course. Yeah, imagine Keith.

337
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:36,600
Speaker 1: I don't know if you caught it. I don't remember

338
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 1: which game it was, but Keith this weekend, Oh, it

339
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 1: was the day that he got traded, So that would

340
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 1: have been Saturday. Yeah, Saturday, Yeah, on Saturday Keith was

341
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 1: talking about because that's also the day tom Sever was traded.

342
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:48,960
Speaker 1: He was traded to the Mets. That was the old

343
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:50,560
Speaker 1: trade deadline, for the old trade deadline.

344
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:52,520
Speaker 2: And I was reading this book on June and fifteenth,

345
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 2: that chapter yesterday Saturday, and it was about that trade

346
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,320
Speaker 2: that like the first like sell off trade deadline.

347
00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 1: That was just funny because yeah, he was like, yeah,

348
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 1: that was that was when the trade deadline was real

349
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 1: about getting players, not just contracts and dumping salary anymore. Yeah,

350
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:06,719
Speaker 1: and how he made a comment about that too.

351
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 2: But I think it is funny that Keith said that

352
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,199
Speaker 2: because just imagine Mets fans, like how much we've all

353
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,720
Speaker 2: been talking and fantas and obsessing about the trade deadline.

354
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 2: Imagine if the trade deadline was yesterday, but.

355
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 1: I can't eight games, how do you know? But that

356
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 1: was a bad decision to ever make it that early.

357
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 1: I just think back then, baseball was such a vibe thing. Dude,

358
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 1: they just didn't care like baseball now. Is arguing my

359
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:30,560
Speaker 1: uncle about this just now tonight, and he was like

360
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 1: two weeks ago he was pissed about how bad the

361
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 1: Mets were, Like he was like, this is terrible. They

362
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:37,160
Speaker 1: had no direction, get rid of everybody, and now they

363
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:38,520
Speaker 1: went five games in a row. It's like they can't

364
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 1: trade these guys. We're gonna make a run.

365
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 2: So I'm like, you changed so quickly. But it's like

366
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 2: he wants to like keep Severino and keep j. D.

367
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 2: Martinez obviously, because I'm like, we have to.

368
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 1: We have to.

369
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 2: We got getting the race by August, then we could

370
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 2: make some noise, whereas like baseball now is just asset management.

371
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 1: Tangent. I had to remind you about commanding the menu.

372
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 1: I was texted to tell you about commanding the menu.

373
00:14:58,760 --> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 1: This is just also funny.

374
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 2: We're just again with family this weekend. Just there was

375
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 2: a story of my aunt guy she's dating, where she said,

376
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 2: like one of the things that she likes about him

377
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 2: is that he can command the menu. Like they go

378
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 2: out to eat and he's like She's like, he really

379
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 2: is in control of the menu, like he knows what

380
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 2: to pick. And I was like what and then she

381
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 2: was like, yeah, you know that's my mean wile husband

382
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 2: date work. He couldn't command the menu.

383
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 1: Couldn't command the menu.

384
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 2: If I figured you would just remind me that we

385
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 2: talked about before after the show, but just I guess

386
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 2: the listeners can get a little piece of that for

387
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,000
Speaker 2: my aggressively Italian family.

388
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 1: If any would. If if I was with a significant

389
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 1: other and they're like, you don't command the menu enough,

390
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 1: I'd be like, damn, like I saw, I'm a bitch.

391
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:36,040
Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever dated someone and they were

392
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 1: like they wanted me the order for them. I think

393
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:41,000
Speaker 1: that's such a no note. But she's a net is like, yeah,

394
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 1: I want to command. He wants someone commands the menu.

395
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 1: Oh glad, I'm glad that's what it was. That was awesome.

396
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 1: That was a good one. That's good little interjection into there.

397
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 1: But back to baseball, back to the New York Mets. Yeah,

398
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 1: this team, though, is in a weird place, though, I

399
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 1: don't know if I said this to you off air

400
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 1: or on air, maybe it was to my dad, But

401
00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 1: I was like, this Padre series is gonna tell us

402
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 1: a lot. So if the Mets get swept, they're selling.

403
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 1: I think this would have like put been the nail

404
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 1: on the coffin. We're getting rid of everybody. Who's anybody?

405
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 1: We'd be making moves. If the Mets one one of two,

406
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 1: you're like, probably still gonna be sellers. Two of three,

407
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,280
Speaker 1: You're like, nah, you probably sell off a few guys

408
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 1: here and there. You make some decisions, some tactical moves.

409
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:19,040
Speaker 1: A sweep here, does it change anything for you? Because mentally,

410
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 1: for me, it's it's changing my head a little bit here.

411
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:24,720
Speaker 1: But I also feel like I'm this. This is how

412
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 1: they do it. They suck me right back in every

413
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:27,480
Speaker 1: single time I think I'm out.

414
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,400
Speaker 2: I just think that knowing David Stearns and knowing the

415
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 2: types of executive David stearance wasn't Milwaukee. This doesn't change

416
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 2: anything for me because I think, no matter what, again,

417
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 2: like I said, like, this isn't about baseball anymore. It's

418
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 2: always just about asset management. And I think that for

419
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 2: you to get to the middle of August, when you

420
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 2: know for a fact that this team at their best,

421
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 2: with the fuck are they beating in the playoffs? They're

422
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 2: really not, They're really Yeah. Yes, Roders also stink. I

423
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 2: think the series talks a lot more about the Padres.

424
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,640
Speaker 2: Talk was about the Mets Dos Podgers aren't that good,

425
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 2: like truthfull at the end of the day, especially without

426
00:16:57,640 --> 00:16:59,280
Speaker 2: dar Vision and Joe Muscarv and their rotation.

427
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,440
Speaker 1: Adam is Maser or Missouri Major. I think it's major.

428
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 1: It's major.

429
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 2: Adam Major on Saturday. That guy was a cluster fuck

430
00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 2: on the mount. He almost has his he almost has

431
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 2: many walks in his first three starts his major league career.

432
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 2: Then he has his entire season in the minor league

433
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,879
Speaker 2: twenty twenty three. Whoa, it's like it and it's like,

434
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,639
Speaker 2: I think there's like something else just thinking about like prospects, velepment,

435
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 2: like evaluating players that come to the majors where sometimes

436
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:24,280
Speaker 2: he's minor league pitchers don't translate.

437
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:27,080
Speaker 1: And it all comes back to fastball. Yeah, and Major's fastball.

438
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:28,680
Speaker 1: He knew we couldn't put in the strike zone because

439
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 1: we did put in the strikes on the Mets starts.

440
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,560
Speaker 1: Shot so it was like, I think that's such a thing,

441
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,240
Speaker 1: and where I was, where was it going in this

442
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:39,680
Speaker 1: tangent but headline to have j D.

443
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,720
Speaker 2: Martinez on this team past the trade deadlines probably stupid.

444
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:44,680
Speaker 2: I know, it's fun to have him in the lineup,

445
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 2: but like looking back, it's probably just a little dumb,

446
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 2: like if you could really get any and all depends

447
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:52,640
Speaker 2: on the market. It depends what the market develops. Yeah,

448
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:54,440
Speaker 2: we don't know what's gonna happen with these guys now.

449
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 2: The fact that the Astros are down a bat with

450
00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 2: Jose Bray being released, it seems like we could fire

451
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,359
Speaker 2: the bidding war between the Astros and the Mariners to

452
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 2: get a first base when you're adh of the trade deadline,

453
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 2: and those origin just got hurt too, by the way,

454
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,600
Speaker 2: and he stinks. But I don't think we're trading. We're

455
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 2: not trained.

456
00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 1: We better not. I'm not trading Pe the Yankees in

457
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 1: that case. I'm homeward by. I'm not doing that. But

458
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 1: I just I just I said this album.

459
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:20,159
Speaker 2: I was on the Radious week in ESPN Radio and

460
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 2: they were asked me about best trade deadline stuff, and

461
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,680
Speaker 2: you remember the deadline twenty twenty two, yeah, where the

462
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,000
Speaker 2: Brewers are in first place. I think they were either

463
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 2: thirty five, forty five and thirty seven something like that.

464
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:32,200
Speaker 1: They we almost ten games over five hundred.

465
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 2: They were on the trade deadline day, they were tied

466
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 2: with the Cardinals' top of division, and their records would

467
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,120
Speaker 2: have been fringe wildcard records, which is funny thinking about

468
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,120
Speaker 2: where the NL is this year and the fact that

469
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:43,640
Speaker 2: everyone is in the wildcard race. Where in that year,

470
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 2: even if you were eight nine games over five hundred,

471
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 2: you were barely in the wildcard race.

472
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:49,440
Speaker 1: Would you call it last night the bastardization of Major

473
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,239
Speaker 1: League Baseball? Yeah, I mean I was.

474
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 2: I had a few drinks, but just I guess I'll

475
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:55,440
Speaker 2: do the I'll do the Brewers story first, and I'll

476
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:59,199
Speaker 2: do I'll talk about Rob Manfred. But ten games over

477
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,320
Speaker 2: five hundred. They trade the best closer in baseball, one

478
00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:02,959
Speaker 2: of the best closing in baseball, on Josh Haither, and

479
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,439
Speaker 2: I think, objectively, in a vacuum, outside a vacuum, that

480
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 2: wasn't a bad trade at all, because in that trade

481
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 2: they got Taylor Rodgers, who's a fine reliever. They still

482
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 2: had Devin Williams, who's at the time was not Josh Hayden,

483
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:14,640
Speaker 2: but still one of the five best relievers in baseball.

484
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:17,800
Speaker 2: And they got Robert Gasser in that trade, who's like

485
00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 2: has come up this year and it looks like a

486
00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 2: very steady major league start. They'll probably have their rotation

487
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:23,920
Speaker 2: for a while. And in that trade they also got

488
00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:26,439
Speaker 2: as Jury Ruiz, who they were able to throw in

489
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 2: the three team Sean Murphy trade and basically turned to

490
00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:32,359
Speaker 2: Sturry Ruiz into William Contrere's and Joe Piams. William Chraris

491
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 2: is the LEGITI MVP candidate and Joe Piams is a

492
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:34,879
Speaker 2: really good reliever.

493
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 1: So this is kind of what I'm talking about about.

494
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 2: Sterns and that Brewers team actually tanked after they made

495
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,080
Speaker 2: that trade and they missed the playoffs, and then when

496
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 2: they trade happened they were winning the division. Was because

497
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:46,880
Speaker 2: David Sterns looked at this roster. He said, this team

498
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:48,400
Speaker 2: isn't good enough to win the World Series no matter

499
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 2: what the record is on July thirty first, and I'm

500
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:52,800
Speaker 2: just gonna make this trade because we're not resigning this

501
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:55,440
Speaker 2: guy and getting those assets put them in a significantly

502
00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:58,919
Speaker 2: better position. Now four years later, three years later, but

503
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:02,400
Speaker 2: it's a tough pill to swallow, and I really think

504
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 2: that's some foreshadowings what's gonna happen to this Mets team.

505
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,960
Speaker 1: The reason I pushed back for two reasons. One, Brewers

506
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:09,919
Speaker 1: just didn't have the money the Mets have. Now I

507
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 1: agree it like in a in a vacuum when we're

508
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:15,320
Speaker 1: talking about all this stuff. If there are players the

509
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:16,720
Speaker 1: Mets are like, we are not gonna be able to

510
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:20,359
Speaker 1: keep them. Like genuinely speaking, Luis Severino is probably one

511
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:22,679
Speaker 1: of the more interesting guys at the trade deadline, a

512
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 1: pitcher who has the qualifying offer available still at the

513
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 1: end of the year. But also if he continues to

514
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:28,680
Speaker 1: pitch like this, he's gonna get a multi year deal

515
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:32,240
Speaker 1: and he's gonna be getting paid twenty ish million dollars

516
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:32,640
Speaker 1: a year.

517
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:36,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it'll still be like Taiwan Walker money rather

518
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:38,439
Speaker 2: than like get to the next level, like a two

519
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 2: or three year deal.

520
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean Walker, what did Taiwan Walker get he got?

521
00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:44,439
Speaker 1: I think he got like three for sixty about okay,

522
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 1: But like I think the idea is, like, Okay, he's

523
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 1: gonna be a little tougher to re sign, maybe move

524
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:51,000
Speaker 1: a guy like him, But then you have the like

525
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,600
Speaker 1: the big elephant in the room, literally Pete Alonzo, and

526
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:55,240
Speaker 1: it's like what do you do with a guy like him?

527
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:58,440
Speaker 1: And that's where I think it's different than the Brewer situation,

528
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 1: especially because the position is the closer position as well,

529
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:06,480
Speaker 1: Like we know that relatively speaking, that is a replaceable position,

530
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 1: easier to replace the closer than it is a power

531
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 1: hitting first baseman or what Jadie Martin is doing on

532
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:15,000
Speaker 1: the offensive side here, or even a starting pitcher necessarily.

533
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 1: But I also hear what you're saying, because David Stearns

534
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:24,320
Speaker 1: is a smart man. Like you said, this team, I mean,

535
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,000
Speaker 1: I hate, I hate to do this on an episode

536
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:28,399
Speaker 1: that's positive, but this current iteration of this team is

537
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:30,640
Speaker 1: not winning the World Series. They need they need improvements,

538
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 1: They need to bring guys in. There needs to be

539
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:33,800
Speaker 1: a lot of things that happens for us to even

540
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 1: become a playoff team. Still, but it's gonna be hard

541
00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:41,760
Speaker 1: for the Mets, especially considering how bad attendance has been

542
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:43,560
Speaker 1: this year. It's gonna be really hard for them to

543
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 1: get rid of pieces, especially when they're becoming fan favorites

544
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,240
Speaker 1: or already are one of the fan favorites. Already are

545
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:50,320
Speaker 1: your huge marketing.

546
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:52,840
Speaker 2: I was thinking about that too, because the Mets, we've

547
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:54,840
Speaker 2: seen Peter Gammas talking about We've seen some other report.

548
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,239
Speaker 2: I think Travis Sauchik had something. Someone ESPM I've had

549
00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:00,159
Speaker 2: something too that year over the year. Yeah, you're of

550
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 2: your attendance. The Mets have lost the most to baseball

551
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 2: this season and this is now a two year slide

552
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:06,239
Speaker 2: for the Mets and attendance from twenty to twenty two

553
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 2: and things were a lot of fun. So that probably

554
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,080
Speaker 2: something that is pulling it too. But I just still think,

555
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 2: like again, in terms of strictly asset management, if you

556
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,320
Speaker 2: don't think this team actually has a chance to legitimately

557
00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 2: make noise, and it's hard to say that because they

558
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,840
Speaker 2: are playing well right now, but just to get in

559
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 2: a playoff series. Let's say you make the wildcard, you

560
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:24,920
Speaker 2: get the last wildcard spot, and we get then we're

561
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 2: blessed with playing it would be the central winner in

562
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:28,640
Speaker 2: the first round.

563
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 1: Like the road games. That's saying you're three road games,

564
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,400
Speaker 1: but you could you could beat you could be we course,

565
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:35,199
Speaker 1: you could definitely beat the Brewers. We could beat Then

566
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:36,920
Speaker 1: I don't know who's gonna win the NL Central, but

567
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: they all just kind of suck.

568
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,480
Speaker 2: They're all the same, it doesn't matter. But then it's

569
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,000
Speaker 2: like then, I don't know, Like I think about the

570
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,399
Speaker 2: Diamondbacks last year, and the Diamondbacks still had like pictures

571
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:47,399
Speaker 2: of top their rotation just better than the pictures. The

572
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,080
Speaker 2: Mets have a top the rotation, and I don't know.

573
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 2: It's so like you hang on to try and like

574
00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:54,760
Speaker 2: have this miraculous Wildcard run just for this because like

575
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:56,879
Speaker 2: I think about twenty nineteen too, and I always think

576
00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:00,639
Speaker 2: about losing Zach Wheeler for nothing because he's, yeah, he's

577
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:02,119
Speaker 2: the best, He's are one of the best pitchers in baseball.

578
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 2: Like I know he got shelled on Sunday against the Orioles,

579
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,120
Speaker 2: but it's just it was his first time allowing Aden

580
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 2: runs to twenty eighteen.

581
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: So I was like, uh, Mets. I put that in

582
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:10,280
Speaker 1: the World blurb and I was like, yeah, that was

583
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 1: with the Mets.

584
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,480
Speaker 2: But that team was different, Like that team had similar

585
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:15,840
Speaker 2: vibe in the first half of this team, but that

586
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 2: team was fucking awesome. Yes, like that twenty nineteen Mets team,

587
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:19,920
Speaker 2: Like you look up and down, like you get to

588
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:21,679
Speaker 2: a playoff series or to Gromme Wheeler, you could beat

589
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:23,720
Speaker 2: anyone in a playoffs here, of course, like you had

590
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 2: you had Pete blasting off. McNeil was one of the

591
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 2: best hitters in baseball, like Nimo was coming into it.

592
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,200
Speaker 1: JD. Davis, Yeah, like that was a team had a

593
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,880
Speaker 1: one fifty w orc plus, Like that was a team

594
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:35,159
Speaker 1: that no one wanted to see in the playoffs. But

595
00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:37,679
Speaker 1: this Mets team is really just a hodgepodge collection of

596
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:41,159
Speaker 1: one year contracts who probably were acquired for the purpose

597
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:42,679
Speaker 1: of being traded at the end of the day. They

598
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 1: really probably a lot of these guys were Severino Manaia,

599
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:47,760
Speaker 1: like they knew that shit went bad. You could just

600
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:49,119
Speaker 1: dump these guys and get a little bit back for

601
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,159
Speaker 1: them that you got them for nothing, a few million dollars.

602
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:53,159
Speaker 1: But a lot of it does come back to what

603
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:54,960
Speaker 1: I told you last night after a few beverages. Is

604
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 1: the bastardization of baseball by Rob Manfreds there it is

605
00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 1: because a tweet went viral, but from Kate Feldman this weekend,

606
00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:02,400
Speaker 1: where is like it was just a screenshotty Almbi standing said,

607
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 1: this is ridiculous and National League standings because as of

608
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:09,200
Speaker 1: right now in the National League four teams are over

609
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 1: five hundred, and it's like, I understand, like we should

610
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:15,560
Speaker 1: keep dropping these stats. All the creators everyone's talking about.

611
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:16,919
Speaker 2: You know, Mets two games out match two games out

612
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 2: much two games out, but like two games out means

613
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:24,800
Speaker 2: significantly less when there's still one, two, three, four, five

614
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:26,639
Speaker 2: six teams in between the Mets and.

615
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:27,359
Speaker 1: A playoff spot.

616
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, so the two games one and a half games, sure,

617
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 2: but the Mets still the third worst record in the

618
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:36,480
Speaker 2: National League. So I understand the games out is one thing,

619
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:38,919
Speaker 2: But you're on a five game winning streak and you're

620
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:40,879
Speaker 2: still behind the Nationals. You're still behind the Reds, You're

621
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 2: still behind the Pirates, And I would even argue those

622
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,920
Speaker 2: teams have more exciting pieces and the roster than the

623
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:47,960
Speaker 2: Mets do. At the end of the day, this Pirates

624
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,720
Speaker 2: team in a playoff series don't want to face Paul

625
00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:54,200
Speaker 2: Skeins and Jared Jones Keller. No one wants to go

626
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,560
Speaker 2: into that series where the Mets would be maybe Codai

627
00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:58,719
Speaker 2: Sang if he comes back, maybe Christian Scott they ever

628
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:00,399
Speaker 2: let him back up, and maybe Louis you know, if

629
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:02,919
Speaker 2: he's still here. So that's not it's not as scary.

630
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 2: It's not the same thing. So it's just there's a

631
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 2: lot of joy right now. And I think a lot

632
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,159
Speaker 2: of Mets fans ideas are changing, but they keep just

633
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:09,920
Speaker 2: being these questions.

634
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:11,879
Speaker 1: Are the Mets buyers are sellers, the Mets buyers are sellers.

635
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,440
Speaker 1: It's not gonna be black and white. But that's also

636
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:16,520
Speaker 1: just because we've ruined this game and too many teams

637
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:18,840
Speaker 1: make the playoffs. So every single general manager the only

638
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 1: goals to win fifty percent of their games and try

639
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:22,399
Speaker 1: and get lucky and not spending money and not have

640
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 1: to try and stupid is he? But that's where we are.

641
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:28,160
Speaker 1: I just had a brain blast because everybody's so interested.

642
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,360
Speaker 1: There's like, okay, of the teams that are like out

643
00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:32,800
Speaker 1: of it right, let's just it's a little exercise here.

644
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:37,959
Speaker 1: Colorado Rockies, Miami Marlins, Chicago White Sox, and then the

645
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,679
Speaker 1: A's and the Angels. Those are the really only teams

646
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 1: in baseball that are are dead. They're season's over, it's

647
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 1: June sixteenth, you're not making the playoffs. I'll plant my

648
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:49,200
Speaker 1: flag there. The Mets gonna have actually a shit ton

649
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:53,960
Speaker 1: of leverage because they have playoff caliber players. Maybe maybe

650
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 1: some of the best available players out of any of

651
00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:59,120
Speaker 1: the teams. And there's also that perception of they're still

652
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:01,560
Speaker 1: in it, which is it's it's confusing, it's a mind

653
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,359
Speaker 1: fuck to think about, because again that that wild card

654
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 1: being so big and being only two games back gives

655
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,879
Speaker 1: you the belief that you're in it. But we also

656
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,199
Speaker 1: might have the best assets of any team at the

657
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:14,679
Speaker 1: deadline that's actually looking to make any moves, so we

658
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,199
Speaker 1: might be able to get back monster packages because everyone's

659
00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:21,199
Speaker 1: gonna be calling the Mets saying, what's Louis Severarino available for? Yeah, actually,

660
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:23,360
Speaker 1: we do want Peter a Lonzo now like And that's

661
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,560
Speaker 1: that's the hard part. As a fan, I don't want

662
00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 1: them to sell because I love the idea of like

663
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 1: going hard and being good, and I'm fu for the

664
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,239
Speaker 1: Mets to go get go get a big picture at

665
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:35,199
Speaker 1: the deadline, or go get whatever they have to to

666
00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 1: improve this team to try and win the World Series

667
00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:39,440
Speaker 1: as much as possible. Don't take any of this conversation

668
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:42,000
Speaker 1: from us as as saying we want to sell, because

669
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 1: I want to win. It's fun, like I want to

670
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,800
Speaker 1: play baseball. This weekend was fun. Just winning three games

671
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 1: against the Padres was really fun, some of the most

672
00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:50,880
Speaker 1: fun baseball the Mets have seen since twenty twenty two.

673
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 1: But is that the right choice? I'm sure, I'm sure happy.

674
00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:57,639
Speaker 1: I'm not David Stearns right now. I'm gonna have to

675
00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,200
Speaker 1: make that decision at some point. But that's also big

676
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:00,639
Speaker 1: part of it.

677
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:04,200
Speaker 2: And Stearns and Steve keep being super coy with every

678
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 2: question about the trade deadline. But that's leverage, Like, that's negotiation.

679
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:09,199
Speaker 2: You can't plant your flag and say we're buyers the

680
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:10,960
Speaker 2: trade deadline. Then you're gonna get bent over a barrel.

681
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 2: Like that's not how this works. And I think there's

682
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 2: also an element of what you're saying and what we're

683
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:17,919
Speaker 2: saying is that it's just it's just a mix of

684
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:21,080
Speaker 2: old baseball ideas versus new baseball ideas, where like we

685
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,120
Speaker 2: and like it comes back to that comment that Keith said,

686
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:25,480
Speaker 2: where used to make trades for players.

687
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:27,399
Speaker 1: And talent rather than contracts and prospects.

688
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:30,639
Speaker 2: But it's true because the way that David Searns ran

689
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:32,959
Speaker 2: those Brewers teams and how he's running these Mets teams already,

690
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:36,400
Speaker 2: Like this is asset management. This isn't frivolous joyful baseball

691
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:39,359
Speaker 2: where it's like let's throw the gloves deal. Yeah, like,

692
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 2: let's throw the gloves out there and try and make

693
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:42,359
Speaker 2: some magic hap and friends.

694
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:43,360
Speaker 1: That's not what this is.

695
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,119
Speaker 2: Like, this is we signed a bunch of one year

696
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:46,760
Speaker 2: deals because we knew we'd have if we were in it,

697
00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:48,120
Speaker 2: we could stay in it and not we could trade

698
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,000
Speaker 2: them and recoup our money and not spend that much,

699
00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 2: like we have to run this thing to shoe string

700
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:53,520
Speaker 2: for this year, because this was kind of a wash

701
00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:55,639
Speaker 2: year based on the contracts that were on the books,

702
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:57,199
Speaker 2: the players that were available free agency.

703
00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 1: It just was a bonus year almost. You could say,

704
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,919
Speaker 1: if anything happened, that's great. We're just playing baseball. We're

705
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:03,239
Speaker 1: just happened. We're just getting after it.

706
00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:05,359
Speaker 2: And like the fact that they win the tank so hard,

707
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,280
Speaker 2: I think probably put us all in a different frame

708
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:08,680
Speaker 2: of mind.

709
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:10,520
Speaker 1: But now they're good again. But I also think that

710
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:13,359
Speaker 1: like if you went to a coma in March twenty

711
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,960
Speaker 1: seventh day before the regular season, a week after the

712
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 1: mess signe JD. Martinez, and you woke up now just

713
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,640
Speaker 1: now at eleven thirty seven pm on Sunday, June sixteenth,

714
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 1: and you saw the Mets record, You be like, that's

715
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:25,280
Speaker 1: not that far off. I thought they were gonna be.

716
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:27,879
Speaker 2: But you wouldn't have known about the eight game losing

717
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:29,720
Speaker 2: and then this five game winning and all the chaos

718
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:31,679
Speaker 2: and Reez Hoskins Edwin Dias.

719
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 1: You have not known any of this. This would have

720
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:35,800
Speaker 1: been the negative side of what I was expecting. Because again,

721
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:37,920
Speaker 1: like we were saying, five hundred team, that's been our

722
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:39,560
Speaker 1: thing that we've been saying all off season. It gives

723
00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 1: over five games under. Yeah, and right now they're the

724
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 1: five games under after a five game winning streak. So

725
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 1: it's like it is. It's such a weird and bizarre season,

726
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:50,600
Speaker 1: such a weird feel. I'm I'm definitely just excited that

727
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:52,959
Speaker 1: we're on a high right now because we again, we

728
00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:55,120
Speaker 1: haven't had many this year and it got really really

729
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:58,160
Speaker 1: down and deep and dark at one point. So excited

730
00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:00,680
Speaker 1: that we're on a high. But man, this next like

731
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 1: month or so up until the trade deadline is going

732
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 1: to be weird. It's just gonna be weird. Like this

733
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:08,760
Speaker 1: isn't ever a spot we've really been in as Mets fans,

734
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:11,480
Speaker 1: I feel like in our lifetime, no, and it feels

735
00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 1: like that there's like this like micro evaluation of the

736
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 1: team happening every day, when in reality, I think all

737
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:19,480
Speaker 1: these decisions are basically made already internally. Oh you think so,

738
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:21,360
Speaker 1: you think decisions, I don't know if they're made yet.

739
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 2: I think we can make we can make a bet

740
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 2: in the podcast. I don't think Jady Martinz is on

741
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 2: the team.

742
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:30,520
Speaker 1: Dance the trade deadline. Oh man, we'll figure out a

743
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:32,920
Speaker 1: bad down to make a bed for it. He Okay,

744
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 1: I want to just like go through the roster of

745
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 1: just I'm not saying like every single player, like who

746
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 1: do we think are the guys that or who do

747
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 1: you think are the guys that will not be on

748
00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:45,200
Speaker 1: the team definitively, Like I don't think Pete's gonna fall

749
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:46,840
Speaker 1: in that thing just yet. I think he's more of

750
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:49,240
Speaker 1: a field guy, a vibe guy. But you think, like,

751
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 1: no matter what if let's say the Mets are for

752
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:53,800
Speaker 1: five games over five hundred at the dead no matter

753
00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 1: you think, Jady Martinez is gone, no matter.

754
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:58,440
Speaker 2: What I think, basically, no matter what, Jada Martinez, Luis

755
00:29:58,440 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 2: Avrin Shaum and I are gone.

756
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 1: Really, yes, I do.

757
00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 2: I just I just seeing the way the Sterns used

758
00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 2: to run those Brewers teams like it's it's it's a

759
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,400
Speaker 2: it's just very realistic expectations. And it's just if you

760
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:12,200
Speaker 2: don't think this team can actually get into a seven

761
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 2: game series with the Phillies of the Braves, the Dodgers

762
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,520
Speaker 2: and beat them, then we're gonna trade these guys because

763
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:17,960
Speaker 2: we want to get into that seven game series next

764
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 2: year the you're after, and we want a better chance

765
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 2: to win that.

766
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 1: I think Severino is very dependent on how this team's doing,

767
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:26,680
Speaker 1: because if he's if he's still puting like this and

768
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 1: they're they're in the playoffs spot at the trade deadline,

769
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:32,160
Speaker 1: how do you move one of your better starters? How

770
00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:33,800
Speaker 1: do you move a guy who's got three? Like what

771
00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 1: would the package be that you would have to say yes? Maybe?

772
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:38,520
Speaker 1: Like what would what would we have to be looking

773
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 1: getting back? Not that much.

774
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,480
Speaker 2: Really, it's one year contract and the guy has been

775
00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:45,120
Speaker 2: injured for the last three years. And even though he's

776
00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,480
Speaker 2: being really effective right now, we still only throwing fast balls.

777
00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:49,480
Speaker 2: I think his sierra is like over a run higher

778
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 2: than his Yeah, but still just like.

779
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,480
Speaker 1: Like man I can get behind. But also the thing

780
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:57,520
Speaker 1: with Manaia two is we do have the player or

781
00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 1: there's the player option next year, yeah, which I guess offer. Yeah,

782
00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:03,960
Speaker 1: I guess if An I pitch as well, he would

783
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:05,680
Speaker 1: he would decline that because he would want to try

784
00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:08,000
Speaker 1: and get multiple years for someone, so that makes him

785
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,360
Speaker 1: more tradable. Like I get that. Sevarrino is the one

786
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 1: that's tough. JD's just so hard too, especially like now

787
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:14,920
Speaker 1: we're again we're on the high of how good j

788
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 1: D Martinez? This is how how do you get rid

789
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 1: of the guy? But I guess you get rid of

790
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 1: him because you're getting something back for a team that's

791
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:22,480
Speaker 1: not gonna make any noise. I don't know. This is

792
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 1: such a I hate this so much. Why can't can

793
00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:26,800
Speaker 1: we either just be good or can we suck? I

794
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:27,920
Speaker 1: don't like being in the middle.

795
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:30,560
Speaker 2: But like Steve Cohen told us directly last week, he

796
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:32,680
Speaker 2: said to Newsday, said this deadline is not going to

797
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:35,959
Speaker 2: be black and white. And also, I don't okay, I'm

798
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 2: saying like I think I'm actually wrong saying decisions already

799
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:39,840
Speaker 2: makes I think it's totally going to be dictated by

800
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 2: what you're saying, like what you're able to get back

801
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:43,959
Speaker 2: for any of these guys. But I just think it's

802
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:45,920
Speaker 2: fully open for business if you've got If you makes

803
00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:47,239
Speaker 2: an offer like and we think it's good offer, we're

804
00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 2: just gonna take it.

805
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:51,400
Speaker 1: Please. Oh man, the Padres you could use Starling Marte

806
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:54,480
Speaker 1: maybe one badly. Oh it's the Pirates could use a

807
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 1: corner outfielder. I'm coming home, so that'd be sick. I mean,

808
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:01,720
Speaker 1: I can't really played p Diddy music. I think anymore

809
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:05,160
Speaker 1: guy's a bad dude. But I'm coming home solid Marte

810
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:06,640
Speaker 1: to Pittsburgh. That would hit like crack.

811
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:08,320
Speaker 2: And the Pirates say or they have one of the

812
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:10,120
Speaker 2: worst defensive outfields in baseball, so that's fine.

813
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:13,080
Speaker 1: He fitted the low effort may be bad around the

814
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,960
Speaker 1: young guys, but I mean, so Marte is hitting a

815
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 1: little bit again, so he's saying fine.

816
00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:19,200
Speaker 2: I think he was actually the only met regular on

817
00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:22,080
Speaker 2: Sunday to not have a hit. Nice sorry, only only

818
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:23,959
Speaker 2: guy in the lineup starting knight to not have a hit.

819
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:25,520
Speaker 1: Wait to keep it on of Sarling Marte to day.

820
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:27,640
Speaker 1: Did you see the plays that he made in the

821
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:32,760
Speaker 1: field today? Yeah, but I wish I hadn't. So the

822
00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:35,680
Speaker 1: Luisa Rise double off the wall was shocking because he

823
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 1: jumped into the wall and missed it by eight to

824
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,280
Speaker 1: ten feet. I mean, wasn't even close. I've never seen

825
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:42,800
Speaker 1: someone miss a ball jumping into the wall like that,

826
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 1: Like I'm not even talking about like it went over

827
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:46,840
Speaker 1: his glove. He missed it. He was on the wrong

828
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:48,480
Speaker 1: side of the wall. There was a corner he was

829
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,520
Speaker 1: on the other side, which I've never seen before. Luisa

830
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:53,640
Speaker 1: Rise thought it was an out. They didn't score because

831
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:55,400
Speaker 1: they thought it was gonna be an easily caught ball.

832
00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:58,240
Speaker 1: Don't know how he missed that. Then he had the

833
00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:00,320
Speaker 1: ball where he dove I think Tati he hit a

834
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:02,719
Speaker 1: lazy fly ball to right field. He laid out for it,

835
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:04,760
Speaker 1: and I know, like Howie and Gary and all those

836
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 1: guys made like big calls. It was a horrendous defensive play.

837
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,040
Speaker 1: It was a rootine fly ball that he somehow made

838
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:12,240
Speaker 1: look incredibly difficult. And then the biggest one. And I

839
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,240
Speaker 1: don't know if you guys caught this, but I saw

840
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,080
Speaker 1: it on the condensed game because I was in between

841
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,200
Speaker 1: watching the game and being out of Father's Day barbecue shots.

842
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:21,960
Speaker 1: All the fathers out there, Happy Father's Day, Happy Father's Day,

843
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:25,400
Speaker 1: Happy Father's Day. But Adrian, there was a ball hit

844
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:27,600
Speaker 1: to right field, they dropped in front of Marte. He

845
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,040
Speaker 1: was kind of jogging towards it again because God forbid

846
00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:32,520
Speaker 1: that guy ever runs. He's allergic to running unless it's

847
00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:34,760
Speaker 1: stealing second base every once in a while. And he

848
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 1: dropped him from him, and Adrian Houser just looked down

849
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:38,480
Speaker 1: to the outfield and he's like, what the fuck are we doing?

850
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:41,120
Speaker 1: Which is kind of funny because it's like, I think

851
00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:43,720
Speaker 1: even the players are realizing, how did that ball fall?

852
00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:45,880
Speaker 1: Gary even made a commedy. He's like, Yeah, that was

853
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 1: an unbelievably cashable ball that somehow fell in front of

854
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:53,880
Speaker 1: Starling Marte for a single, Like just play better? How

855
00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 1: did how do you have an almost eight hundred ops

856
00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:57,479
Speaker 1: and you have less than one war That doesn't even

857
00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:00,400
Speaker 1: make sense because he's like basically the worst defend the baseball.

858
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:01,280
Speaker 1: But it's frustrating.

859
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:02,800
Speaker 2: If there'snyone that could be traded to be amazing for

860
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:05,520
Speaker 2: those him, I think you probably could if it was

861
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:07,320
Speaker 2: next year. But I think having one year and twenty

862
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:10,640
Speaker 2: million dollars in this contract for a slap hitting player

863
00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:12,040
Speaker 2: that can't field, it's not slap picking.

864
00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 1: That's a big meat. He's having a very good year.

865
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:15,959
Speaker 2: Offensively, but just him being that much of a drag

866
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:17,399
Speaker 2: on defense, it takes down the whole value.

867
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:18,719
Speaker 1: But he can pay. Would you pay the rest of

868
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:20,279
Speaker 1: the contract to get rid of him, or you're only

869
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:22,920
Speaker 1: trading him if the money goes with him too.

870
00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:27,440
Speaker 2: I still probably want something back if I'm if I'm

871
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:29,160
Speaker 2: trading the whole contract, I would, well, you're gonna get

872
00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:29,640
Speaker 2: something back.

873
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:30,360
Speaker 1: I'd like, I'd like.

874
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,239
Speaker 2: Legit, I'd like some some somewhat legitimate prospect. But I

875
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:34,840
Speaker 2: just don't think any of the team baseball it's singles

876
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:38,400
Speaker 2: hither right fielder that can't play defense, padres pirates.

877
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 1: Those are probably the two teams that would be fooled.

878
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 1: But what if they took what if you they took

879
00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:45,759
Speaker 1: his contract, would you take like a washing machine for

880
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,160
Speaker 1: him kind of thing? Yeah, I think definitely if you

881
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:50,879
Speaker 1: If they take sty Morte's entire contract, then the Mets

882
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:52,959
Speaker 1: are actually in play to get below the third luxury

883
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:55,400
Speaker 1: tax threshold for the season and they can reset that

884
00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 1: tax rate and then they cannot. Also, I could also

885
00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 1: play with the trade deadline to horse is gonna play

886
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:03,520
Speaker 1: the tread line Like every single things in play here,

887
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:07,120
Speaker 1: like many moving parts just worrying around it really is.

888
00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:08,680
Speaker 1: I think I think it's gonna be fascinating. I think

889
00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:11,520
Speaker 1: that what other Mets podcast get into the fucking asset

890
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,239
Speaker 1: management and then the trade deadline muddy like we are.

891
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:16,480
Speaker 1: I don't know none, definitely, That's why you guys listen

892
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:18,560
Speaker 1: to us. Of course, we love our listeners, all the

893
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,279
Speaker 1: ball mebers out there. Uh, but I just think a

894
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:23,399
Speaker 1: lot of Mets fans might be really frustrated with David

895
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:28,320
Speaker 1: Stearns the first week of August probably, And I'm actually, yeah, like,

896
00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:29,560
Speaker 1: I think it's a good chance. I am as well,

897
00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:30,040
Speaker 1: like i CP.

898
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:32,040
Speaker 2: But also like if there's a bidding war between the

899
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:33,960
Speaker 2: Astros and the Mariners and we get like a legitimate

900
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:37,239
Speaker 2: prospect for pe A Lonzo and like Lezaro Montes, that's impossible,

901
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:39,759
Speaker 2: no way, please, He's like, he's like a top five

902
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:40,760
Speaker 2: inning prospect of baseball.

903
00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:42,799
Speaker 1: Chance you get him. But I don't even know.

904
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:44,480
Speaker 2: I don't know enough about their systems to like make

905
00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:46,000
Speaker 2: comments about it, but I know that the Astros have

906
00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:47,840
Speaker 2: tons of exciting guys up and down it. Give me

907
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:51,359
Speaker 2: Bryce Matthews. Give Bryce Matthews first reason I love the spot.

908
00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:52,680
Speaker 2: They won't trade I mean they w one trained for Erlin.

909
00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:54,279
Speaker 2: I don't think of the trained for fair, but fair,

910
00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 2: we'll see. I just think it's gonna be a little

911
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,279
Speaker 2: fascinating thing. Like I I was having a conversation my dad, like,

912
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:00,880
Speaker 2: there's a world like this is one of like the

913
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:02,680
Speaker 2: million permutations of trade deadline.

914
00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:03,680
Speaker 1: The Mets could trade plans.

915
00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:06,920
Speaker 2: Don't get Luise Robert. That wouldn't I wouldn't even be shocked, really,

916
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 2: I wouldn't be shocked. The white socks are stupid. And no,

917
00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:11,040
Speaker 2: it's just because like if you can get a guy

918
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,200
Speaker 2: with control for three years and trade the.

919
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:16,279
Speaker 1: Guy without it, oh, you like plans go somewhere else.

920
00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:20,360
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's not trading into the White Sox. No,

921
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:23,560
Speaker 1: it's not a swap. That's why. Who would do that?

922
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:25,160
Speaker 2: No, Like I'm just saying, there's a world where the

923
00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:27,600
Speaker 2: Mets make up a win laterer move and also make

924
00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:28,480
Speaker 2: a lose now move.

925
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,520
Speaker 1: M Yeah, I could see. That's probably more so what

926
00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:33,040
Speaker 1: they actually do. Yeah.

927
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:34,840
Speaker 2: Probably, And again, like we're gonna do a lot of

928
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:37,160
Speaker 2: dense trade deadlas stuff, probably do some live live stuff

929
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:39,120
Speaker 2: for the YouTube channel next week of the week after

930
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:40,759
Speaker 2: really starting to get to the trade deadline, I just

931
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:43,600
Speaker 2: think that the Mets are in such a fascinating place, like, sure,

932
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:45,200
Speaker 2: the two games out, but they're also the third worst

933
00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:45,880
Speaker 2: record nationally.

934
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:46,719
Speaker 1: You have to lead prog.

935
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:49,000
Speaker 2: All these teams got to get the worst roster they Yeah,

936
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,239
Speaker 2: it's there. It's it's bizarre, Like I want them to

937
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:54,560
Speaker 2: keep winning games like these next five series Rangers, Cubs, Yankees,

938
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:56,959
Speaker 2: I think Astros maybe Paillies mixed in, Like we're gonna

939
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,040
Speaker 2: learn a lot about these problems still, because it's it's

940
00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:00,759
Speaker 2: great if like the Mets winning, We're like, what the

941
00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:01,319
Speaker 2: fuck do we do?

942
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 1: We're winning, and this.

943
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:05,520
Speaker 2: Great, great conversation app because it's just really interesting. I

944
00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:07,759
Speaker 2: think you guys also really love all the trade deadline stuff.

945
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:09,120
Speaker 2: But like every single day I see the poll, the

946
00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:12,040
Speaker 2: conversations are the Mets buyers are the Mets sellers. That's

947
00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:13,799
Speaker 2: just not how this works. I don't think it's how

948
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:15,359
Speaker 2: it works anymore, at least for a team that's gonna

949
00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:18,800
Speaker 2: be run by David Stearns and really just fascinated to

950
00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:21,200
Speaker 2: see how he plays this because perception plays into it too,

951
00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:23,480
Speaker 2: Like this is the first trade deadline, same reason you

952
00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:24,840
Speaker 2: want to trade this first movie? They want to be

953
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,399
Speaker 2: trading Pete Alnzo and the way that the Mets gate

954
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,720
Speaker 2: is suffering this year, Like maybe they're like, you just can't.

955
00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:31,239
Speaker 1: You might not be able to.

956
00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:32,839
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying, Like, I think there's a lot

957
00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:34,719
Speaker 2: of more moving parts here than a lot of people

958
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:35,400
Speaker 2: give it credit for.

959
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess we'll just have to wait and see,

960
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:40,759
Speaker 1: because we're getting closer and closer. We will keep talking

961
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:42,399
Speaker 1: about it. Like you said, back to the games here,

962
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 1: let's talk about Tyler McGill. Another pretty fine start, I

963
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:49,160
Speaker 1: guess is the way I would describe it pretty fine?

964
00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:51,040
Speaker 1: How would you say it, Pitchuck whispers.

965
00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:53,160
Speaker 2: I would say, totally okay, because this is this is

966
00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:55,520
Speaker 2: back to the analogy that we've made that's perfect, where

967
00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:58,680
Speaker 2: like Tyler McHale, tax you up. And it's so annoying

968
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:00,920
Speaker 2: because this was a start where he was spotted the

969
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,759
Speaker 2: big league early and I still think he objectively pitched. Well,

970
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:06,440
Speaker 2: I'm grabbing the final line right now. I know it

971
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:09,160
Speaker 2: was just the five innings, but five innings, five strikeouts,

972
00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:12,440
Speaker 2: two runs, totally cool, totally fine, scattered five hits, no

973
00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:16,240
Speaker 2: big deal. But he's just so many little, tiny, annoying

974
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:19,040
Speaker 2: things that Tyler McGill still does. They're really stopping him

975
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:23,440
Speaker 2: from actually turning this corner, finding the potential what to

976
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:25,400
Speaker 2: out walk. That's what I was about to get to.

977
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 2: In the first two innings of this game, for some reason,

978
00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:31,200
Speaker 2: Tyler McGill walked a batter with two men out.

979
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:32,800
Speaker 1: Nobody on where.

980
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:35,040
Speaker 2: Profar is a really good hitter right now, and he

981
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:37,000
Speaker 2: takes a lot of walks, not a lot, he takes

982
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,160
Speaker 2: some walks, But Tyler McGill showed them a lot of

983
00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:40,879
Speaker 2: respect in that bat where he threw him a first

984
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:41,640
Speaker 2: pitch curveball.

985
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:44,360
Speaker 1: Tyler McGill this entire game only.

986
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:47,399
Speaker 2: Threw I got it pulled up right here. This entire

987
00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:50,440
Speaker 2: game on Sunday, Tyler McGill only threw eight curveballs. And

988
00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 2: the first inning, the first pitch jerks Profar saw, he

989
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:54,920
Speaker 2: threw him curveball right away and he missed, and he

990
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:56,880
Speaker 2: missed with a fastball, and he got to two strikes,

991
00:38:57,160 --> 00:38:58,640
Speaker 2: and then he was just kind of nibbling with jerks

992
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:01,279
Speaker 2: and Profar with two, he tried to throw him a

993
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:04,280
Speaker 2: three two splitter, which is interesting because mcgil is working

994
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 2: on the splither and it looks really good. There's so

995
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:07,719
Speaker 2: much potential, but it's just not something he can really

996
00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:10,200
Speaker 2: command it all yet, No, even even a little bit

997
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:12,800
Speaker 2: I likely throwing gets lefties becauld. It really just phades

998
00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:15,839
Speaker 2: into the opposite batter's box. But he just he doesn't

999
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:16,880
Speaker 2: know where that pitch is going at the end of

1000
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 2: the day. So him throwing that pitch with three balls,

1001
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:21,520
Speaker 2: it's like, I'm okay if I walk this guy. And

1002
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:23,320
Speaker 2: then coroner Worth hits a single, then Machado hits a

1003
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:24,919
Speaker 2: single and met you down one nothing in the first inning,

1004
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 2: You're like shit. And then the second inning, same thing happened.

1005
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:29,759
Speaker 2: He walked Awaise campuss On, who never walks, and this

1006
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:31,600
Speaker 2: is you have a three run lead and you're walking

1007
00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:34,719
Speaker 2: the nine hither with two guys out, like it's just

1008
00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:37,040
Speaker 2: those little things. And again he settled down a lot

1009
00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:38,920
Speaker 2: in the third, and the fourth looked really good, and

1010
00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:41,400
Speaker 2: then that fifth inning just got a little difficult, starting

1011
00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 2: again with campu Saw and then the top of the

1012
00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 2: padres order is solid, but they got that. They they

1013
00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:48,600
Speaker 2: squeaked in a run. When you're winning seven to one,

1014
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:50,480
Speaker 2: where like it'd be so nice if you could just

1015
00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:52,040
Speaker 2: get to the sixth inning, get to the seventh inning

1016
00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:52,880
Speaker 2: and just start cruising.

1017
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:55,480
Speaker 1: But it's just these little teeny tiny things that he

1018
00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:57,719
Speaker 1: can't really do it. I think he's still a good

1019
00:39:57,719 --> 00:40:00,400
Speaker 1: star the right now, he really is. But and the

1020
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:01,720
Speaker 1: growth has been real, legitimate.

1021
00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:03,200
Speaker 2: I'm gonna talk more about that in a little But

1022
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:05,600
Speaker 2: he just can't turn that corner and get to the

1023
00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:06,279
Speaker 2: next spot yet.

1024
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:09,920
Speaker 1: No, No, he's uh, but it's it's it feels more

1025
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:11,880
Speaker 1: positive than it has been in the past though, like

1026
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,719
Speaker 1: we're we're nitpicking in a what was.

1027
00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:17,440
Speaker 2: A beast start totally like because now we're nitpicking from

1028
00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:20,279
Speaker 2: Tyler McGill being like a rotation stop gap kind of

1029
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:22,319
Speaker 2: guy into like, let's become a real starting pitcher. And

1030
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:24,520
Speaker 2: again it keeps coming from all of these weapons that

1031
00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:27,080
Speaker 2: he's now developed, Like the fact that he has so

1032
00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:29,240
Speaker 2: many these office pitches now is great. Six different pitches

1033
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:31,200
Speaker 2: from Tyler McGill got at least once again missing this.

1034
00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:32,560
Speaker 1: Gale, Yeah, amazing.

1035
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:36,839
Speaker 2: Four of those got exactly one with okay that's fine, yeah,

1036
00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:39,319
Speaker 2: which is fine, but yeah, and splither got two I

1037
00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:41,440
Speaker 2: think is the most he's thrown the splitter yet too,

1038
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:43,719
Speaker 2: which is a nice development. And that thing is not

1039
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:47,319
Speaker 2: spinning at all is fucking beautiful. But chasing his own

1040
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:49,040
Speaker 2: with the fastballs look good, just look good. This is

1041
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:52,040
Speaker 2: this is a solid offense, and he has turned himself

1042
00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:52,759
Speaker 2: into a solid pitcher.

1043
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:55,239
Speaker 1: I mean, relatively speaking, it was a pretty good performance

1044
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:57,479
Speaker 1: by the pitching staff in general. I know Game three,

1045
00:40:57,640 --> 00:40:59,480
Speaker 1: the runs kind of got a little bit crazy, but

1046
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:01,759
Speaker 1: there was air and plays not made. But even like

1047
00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:04,799
Speaker 1: Game one, mania five innings, seven strikeouts, the bullpen held

1048
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:08,800
Speaker 1: it down. Edwin Diaz, that was chaos that ninth inning,

1049
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:10,719
Speaker 1: for sure. I can't believe he got out of it,

1050
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:14,760
Speaker 1: but through one hundred miles per hour officially, James excited

1051
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:16,680
Speaker 1: about that when I know you are, which is just

1052
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:18,759
Speaker 1: it's so nice. We finally did it, boys, We made

1053
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:20,800
Speaker 1: it to one hundred miles an hour, and it was

1054
00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:23,200
Speaker 1: great to see that emotion too, for him coming off

1055
00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:25,000
Speaker 1: the mound like that, getting that saved, I think that

1056
00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:27,440
Speaker 1: did a lot for his mental Ford Thude, the psyche

1057
00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:29,520
Speaker 1: of Edwin Daz being like, that's right, I do still

1058
00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:31,399
Speaker 1: got this, Like even when shit gets tough, I'm gonna

1059
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:32,759
Speaker 1: be able to get the guys out when I need it.

1060
00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:34,600
Speaker 2: I know you were out in a bound Friday, but

1061
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:37,360
Speaker 2: there was a cool moment between Edwin and Francisco Alverezu

1062
00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:37,719
Speaker 2: might have.

1063
00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:39,080
Speaker 1: Missed where yeah, I didn't catch this.

1064
00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:41,960
Speaker 2: Edwin was getting into trouble in that ninth inning and

1065
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:43,640
Speaker 2: then he basically said after the game that out because

1066
00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:45,160
Speaker 2: Alvarez came out for a mountain visit and he came

1067
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,439
Speaker 2: out and basically just told him, hey, like you're the man,

1068
00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:50,120
Speaker 2: Like you're the man. And then that right there, that

1069
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:52,120
Speaker 2: was the battinginst Corona Warth and Edwinds struck him out

1070
00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:54,200
Speaker 2: and the game's over with nasty slider with the man

1071
00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:57,520
Speaker 2: on base. Yeah, And it was interesting because this was

1072
00:41:57,520 --> 00:41:59,040
Speaker 2: a now think where I did feel really good about

1073
00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:01,520
Speaker 2: Edwin Diaz for the first like good, but there was

1074
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:04,360
Speaker 2: still just some strange moments where like he get he

1075
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:06,160
Speaker 2: gives the single jerks and profar start at the ending,

1076
00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:09,759
Speaker 2: and something that I really liked and when he pitched

1077
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:11,600
Speaker 2: the day before and he talked about this and Gary

1078
00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:14,160
Speaker 2: talked about this, was that like Edwin had the sequencing back,

1079
00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:16,279
Speaker 2: which is what made him so really so good twenty

1080
00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:18,200
Speaker 2: twenty two. Apart from the stuff being electric, it was

1081
00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:20,279
Speaker 2: just the mixing of the fastball and the slide. The

1082
00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:22,080
Speaker 2: fastball and the slider. Here's not really knowing which one

1083
00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:25,239
Speaker 2: was coming. And that first that bat against Profar Edwin

1084
00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:28,640
Speaker 2: threw four straight fastballs and then four straight sliders, and

1085
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:30,640
Speaker 2: like that fourth slide there was like I knew like

1086
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:32,400
Speaker 2: profile was on and he kept filling a lot. I

1087
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:33,839
Speaker 2: felt off the three slides and wrong he threw him

1088
00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:35,960
Speaker 2: a fourth slider. I'm just like, I don't know. So

1089
00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:37,400
Speaker 2: it seems like there's still a little bit of a

1090
00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:39,560
Speaker 2: lack of comfortability from going pitch to pitch with Edwin.

1091
00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:41,520
Speaker 2: But the fastball had more life, Like you said, it

1092
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:43,680
Speaker 2: got two hundred miles an hour and there was a

1093
00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:45,680
Speaker 2: real chance it was going to fall apart there Jeff

1094
00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:48,400
Speaker 2: McNeal made a great play, saved the game, dive diving

1095
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:51,760
Speaker 2: in the hole, keeping Azokar close at second base, getting

1096
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:53,879
Speaker 2: back to his position and then diving in the hole.

1097
00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:56,360
Speaker 2: Make It's great Jeff has been playing better defense a

1098
00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:58,879
Speaker 2: lot yep, because he needs to if he wants to stay

1099
00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:02,239
Speaker 2: in this lineup. He's not hitting stick. But cool just

1100
00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:04,319
Speaker 2: to see Edmund have that emotion pitch and like be

1101
00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:06,040
Speaker 2: able to bank on him getting that safe.

1102
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:08,520
Speaker 1: How funny was it also that in terms of pitching

1103
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:12,160
Speaker 1: Jose Kintana has one of his best performances against the Padres.

1104
00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:14,520
Speaker 1: The two stupid teams in the National League, the Cardinals

1105
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:16,239
Speaker 1: and the Padres, the guys who still use pen and

1106
00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:19,000
Speaker 1: paper for everything, are the two teams that Jose Kintana

1107
00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:22,400
Speaker 1: dices up this year, keeps him under five ERA on

1108
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:25,520
Speaker 1: the season. If there was ever a team that would

1109
00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:27,520
Speaker 1: be confused by Jose Kintana, it would be the team

1110
00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:29,799
Speaker 1: that's led by Mike Schilt who used to be the

1111
00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:32,239
Speaker 1: Cardinals manager. The connections are everywhere.

1112
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,080
Speaker 2: I listened Saturday's game on the radio and how we

1113
00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:37,040
Speaker 2: had a Freudian slip talking about Kantana.

1114
00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:41,440
Speaker 1: What do you say? Called him Santana? Ooh, I know

1115
00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:44,280
Speaker 1: it kind of got a little bit dude, uh, Gary

1116
00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:46,080
Speaker 1: and Ron and all them. We're also talking about that

1117
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:49,160
Speaker 1: Kingtana looks like Johann on the mound, like from the

1118
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:51,600
Speaker 1: set position in his wind up, and I was like, wait,

1119
00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:53,239
Speaker 1: that's crazy. I didn't know how we said that too.

1120
00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:54,880
Speaker 1: Weird connection. That's funny, that's funny.

1121
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:56,719
Speaker 2: How we also had a great story on Saturday in

1122
00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:58,160
Speaker 2: the radio because it was, like we talked about early

1123
00:43:58,200 --> 00:43:59,880
Speaker 2: in the episode of the trade Deadline, he talked about

1124
00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:01,640
Speaker 2: the day Tom sever was traded.

1125
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:03,600
Speaker 1: He must have fell to his knees screaming.

1126
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:05,839
Speaker 2: Well, he was twenty three and he had like his

1127
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:08,840
Speaker 2: first media job. So we said, I'm so fascinated with

1128
00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:10,960
Speaker 2: the concept of news in general and sports news.

1129
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:13,680
Speaker 1: Before Twitter existed. Like yeah, how we said.

1130
00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:16,160
Speaker 2: He learned about the trade at the at the gas

1131
00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:19,880
Speaker 2: station of Utopia Parkway, driving I think from Long Island

1132
00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:22,280
Speaker 2: to Queens Or to work or something, and Larry Brooks,

1133
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:25,319
Speaker 2: who's the famous ranger hockey rider, was doing like a

1134
00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:27,319
Speaker 2: radio show and like, all right, news has come through

1135
00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:30,160
Speaker 2: the Tom Seaver has been traded to the Cincinnati Reds

1136
00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:31,719
Speaker 2: And he was filling up his car and he said,

1137
00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:33,040
Speaker 2: like I'll like to other people listen to it, and

1138
00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:34,719
Speaker 2: they're like there was like a there was like a

1139
00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:36,839
Speaker 2: moment of interaction between the people at the gas station

1140
00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:38,560
Speaker 2: knowing that Tom Stewers was traded.

1141
00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:40,960
Speaker 1: But also that was how he has first job. He said.

1142
00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:42,840
Speaker 2: It was a networker station or something, young report of

1143
00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:46,880
Speaker 2: twenty three years old and he was at Shay Stadium

1144
00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:49,759
Speaker 2: when like Stever was cleaning out his locker and getting

1145
00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:51,920
Speaker 2: out of there like getting sound bites and then his editor.

1146
00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:54,400
Speaker 1: His boss's director told him, hey, I knew you.

1147
00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:58,200
Speaker 2: The followed Tom to the airport from Shay and then

1148
00:44:58,360 --> 00:44:59,759
Speaker 2: just walk with him to the gate and get me

1149
00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:02,279
Speaker 2: a couple sound bites. So twenty three year old how

1150
00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:06,120
Speaker 2: he rose his sports hero, the best player he'd ever

1151
00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:09,399
Speaker 2: seen in his life. He had to drive behind him

1152
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:12,960
Speaker 2: from Shade to La Guardia Park his car, walk with

1153
00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:15,719
Speaker 2: him to the gate and ask him questions and then

1154
00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:18,000
Speaker 2: watch his plane takeoff.

1155
00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:21,399
Speaker 1: It's insane. It was part of me on my knees.

1156
00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:23,360
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have been able to recover from that like that.

1157
00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:25,440
Speaker 1: That would have been like watching David record operated on

1158
00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:28,799
Speaker 1: in twenty twelve, Like that's crazy. He had to watch

1159
00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:31,640
Speaker 1: the plane take off. He was like, my heart was broken.

1160
00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:33,359
Speaker 1: I had to. I had to be the last person

1161
00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:35,160
Speaker 1: to basically see him on his way out of New York.

1162
00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:38,120
Speaker 1: That's so, That's an amazing story, Dan, I wish I

1163
00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:41,240
Speaker 1: wish we got that last year or two years ago. Amazing. Also,

1164
00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:44,479
Speaker 1: Keith is such a funny comment.

1165
00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:47,239
Speaker 2: Today they were talking Father's Day in sn why and

1166
00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:49,600
Speaker 2: Gary goes Happy Father's Day out there because the METSA

1167
00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:51,320
Speaker 2: always do think I think Sundays or weekends where like

1168
00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:52,839
Speaker 2: they send a kid out to every position they could

1169
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:55,000
Speaker 2: talk to the player for a little bit Happy Father's Day.

1170
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:56,680
Speaker 2: These kids out there get to meet their heroes today.

1171
00:45:56,680 --> 00:45:58,200
Speaker 2: Well you know their dads are the real heroes, but

1172
00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:00,600
Speaker 2: these players that get to meet they are probably close second.

1173
00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:03,640
Speaker 1: And then Keith goes. My dad couldn't hold a candle

1174
00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:09,200
Speaker 1: in Mickey Mantle. Dude. Keith. Also, Keith's been awesome. Keith back,

1175
00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:12,000
Speaker 1: by the way, he's so back Like last year, I

1176
00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:13,759
Speaker 1: was kind of getting worried we were losing him a

1177
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:16,359
Speaker 1: little bit, like just being a little curmudgeony. But he's

1178
00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:18,880
Speaker 1: now taking that curmudginye and made it great. He was

1179
00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:21,520
Speaker 1: talking about again on the dead or anniversary of him

1180
00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:23,399
Speaker 1: being trade to the Mets. He was like, I thought

1181
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:25,200
Speaker 1: the Mets were on my no trade list. I thought

1182
00:46:25,239 --> 00:46:26,640
Speaker 1: they were on my list of teams I couldn't be

1183
00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:28,440
Speaker 1: trade to. I think there was four teams, one of

1184
00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:31,120
Speaker 1: them being Oakland. And they made a joke because obviously

1185
00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:33,160
Speaker 1: Keith from the Bay Area, and he was like, oh,

1186
00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:35,200
Speaker 1: I couldn't play for Oakland. My dad would be screaming

1187
00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:37,400
Speaker 1: at everything that I'm doing wrong as I'm played the

1188
00:46:37,400 --> 00:46:39,279
Speaker 1: game is I would never be able to play. I'd

1189
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:42,520
Speaker 1: be crippled. That training is true, that was very intense.

1190
00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:44,680
Speaker 1: He talks about that a lot, but not just funny

1191
00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:47,600
Speaker 1: like it's we're so blessed to have Howie Keith Gary,

1192
00:46:47,719 --> 00:46:50,960
Speaker 1: like Ron everything is Keith and Keith Rad Keith Rad

1193
00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:53,560
Speaker 1: Gray too. But McCarthy. McCarthy's really good too.

1194
00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:55,840
Speaker 2: It's just it's like you watch other teams play baseball

1195
00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:57,839
Speaker 2: and it's like it's just not the same. It really

1196
00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:00,839
Speaker 2: isn't an even objective third party fans watching MAT's games

1197
00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:02,439
Speaker 2: like this is these are the best announcers in the sport.

1198
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:04,560
Speaker 1: It's not even close. Yeah, as in the Padres those

1199
00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:06,440
Speaker 1: are those are two that do not miss that Padres

1200
00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:09,880
Speaker 1: Booth is also don nominal, Yeah, mud and and don Orsilo.

1201
00:47:10,440 --> 00:47:13,200
Speaker 2: I think that's I think that's in there. There's other

1202
00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:16,320
Speaker 2: other tiny little things I wanted to mention. Your boy

1203
00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:17,879
Speaker 2: is still fucking awesome, just I.

1204
00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:20,160
Speaker 1: Mean pulling relievers out of thin air, Like the fact

1205
00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:23,080
Speaker 1: the word team that does that now so so cool.

1206
00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:25,800
Speaker 2: It's like, oh no, you can't wait for Dan and

1207
00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:27,920
Speaker 2: Young to come back up. But yeah, those those stupid

1208
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:30,960
Speaker 2: things we're gonna talk about real quick housekeeping. Jada Martinez

1209
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:33,200
Speaker 2: twenty game on Bay Streak peele A Lonzo. This was

1210
00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:34,960
Speaker 2: the ninth game in his career on Sunday that he

1211
00:47:35,040 --> 00:47:37,560
Speaker 2: drove in at least five runs. I wanted to quickly

1212
00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:39,920
Speaker 2: shout out Jackson Merrill because the two home runs he

1213
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:42,520
Speaker 2: hit the series off of left he's really impressive. The

1214
00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:45,000
Speaker 2: one on Friday night off of Manaiah, who doesn't give

1215
00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:46,799
Speaker 2: up a lot of home runs in general. It was

1216
00:47:46,920 --> 00:47:50,040
Speaker 2: raining at City Field and off a lefty, Merrill put

1217
00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:52,319
Speaker 2: his home runs like the deepest part of right of

1218
00:47:53,120 --> 00:47:55,160
Speaker 2: just just the right of center field, and I was like,

1219
00:47:55,560 --> 00:47:58,680
Speaker 2: that's God, that's a that's a sick shot. Also, Mania

1220
00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:01,040
Speaker 2: is just he doesn't give line at all anymore. Like

1221
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:03,799
Speaker 2: he's five straight out things. He has not completed six

1222
00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:06,839
Speaker 2: innings and he's only gotten pitched six innings and third

1223
00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:08,239
Speaker 2: in three of his thirteen.

1224
00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:10,640
Speaker 1: Starts this year. Yeah, so but again it's fine, like

1225
00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:13,040
Speaker 1: he's still he's still a good thing. We knew he was.

1226
00:48:13,080 --> 00:48:15,879
Speaker 2: That exactly what he is. He is so exactly as funny.

1227
00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:17,840
Speaker 2: And then also just one update about Christian Scott. So

1228
00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:19,920
Speaker 2: was talking to Matt Eddie a lot this week. And

1229
00:48:19,960 --> 00:48:21,160
Speaker 2: there's a new rule in the CBA.

1230
00:48:21,239 --> 00:48:21,759
Speaker 1: I didn't know.

1231
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:25,040
Speaker 2: For a minor league assignment to not affect your major

1232
00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:26,360
Speaker 2: league service time, you have to go down for at

1233
00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:29,320
Speaker 2: least twenty days. Okay, so twenty days for Christian Scott

1234
00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:31,160
Speaker 2: to be in the minor leagues is this Thursday. So

1235
00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:33,160
Speaker 2: I think it's a chance he might pitch in the

1236
00:48:33,160 --> 00:48:35,040
Speaker 2: Cup Series. Chance maybe, I don't know, because he's not

1237
00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:37,160
Speaker 2: gonna pitch it in the Yankee Series. So I think

1238
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:39,040
Speaker 2: this Cup Series is the perfect way to get his

1239
00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:41,560
Speaker 2: feet wet before the Houston Series in two weekends.

1240
00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:45,640
Speaker 1: Also, shout out Louis Torenz. Another home run. Fucking awesome.

1241
00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:48,000
Speaker 1: This guy saved the whole season. Legit, Louise Torenz. This

1242
00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:50,440
Speaker 1: guy is just such a little ballplayer. I can't believe.

1243
00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:52,600
Speaker 1: I can't believe he hasn't been able to stick. Somewhere,

1244
00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:55,200
Speaker 1: I'm gonna make that comment, why is he being able

1245
00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:57,600
Speaker 1: to stick? He's had hot runs before, but he's just yeah,

1246
00:48:57,600 --> 00:48:59,800
Speaker 1: he has been able to stick. He was a padre.

1247
00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:01,640
Speaker 1: Good to do it against his former team, I'm sure,

1248
00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:04,320
Speaker 1: which is great. So shout Luis Therenz another home run

1249
00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:07,359
Speaker 1: already he is I think a two hundred ops plus,

1250
00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:09,239
Speaker 1: which is kind of insane. Yeah, I think it's like

1251
00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:11,440
Speaker 1: a twelve hundred ops in general. But I think that's

1252
00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:14,440
Speaker 1: closing the book in the Padre series. Yeah, closing the

1253
00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:16,200
Speaker 1: book on the Padre series. If we miss anything, you

1254
00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:17,960
Speaker 1: can yell at us in the comment section or tweet

1255
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:20,080
Speaker 1: at us. That's fine, it's whatever, will be good with it.

1256
00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:23,120
Speaker 1: We're recording this on Father's Day. It was like almost

1257
00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:25,440
Speaker 1: seven hours after the game ended. Me and James are

1258
00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:28,319
Speaker 1: wrapping up this podcast. Of course, it is the weekend, though,

1259
00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:30,360
Speaker 1: so we're going to have some media marvels for you guys.

1260
00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:32,399
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go ahead and jump forward with mine, since

1261
00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:36,360
Speaker 1: I'm talking already. I was watching Sunday Night Baseball and

1262
00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:38,560
Speaker 1: Buster only comes on because of course he does, because

1263
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:41,320
Speaker 1: there's only the only person that likes to hear themselves

1264
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:44,279
Speaker 1: talk more than me, and James is busting himself. He

1265
00:49:44,320 --> 00:49:46,359
Speaker 1: loves the sound of his own voice. He was talking

1266
00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:49,640
Speaker 1: about how ESPN was doing an All Star Game selection

1267
00:49:50,040 --> 00:49:52,600
Speaker 1: content piece or whatever, and out of all the riders,

1268
00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:54,799
Speaker 1: he got the first pick overall, and he was like,

1269
00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:56,680
Speaker 1: I'm having a really hard time do I pick from

1270
00:49:56,719 --> 00:50:00,600
Speaker 1: the shortstops of Gunner Henderson, Bobby Wood Junior, Ant Volpi,

1271
00:50:00,800 --> 00:50:05,160
Speaker 1: and Carl Ravish's like, hmm, Anthony Volpi, you sure about that?

1272
00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:08,120
Speaker 1: And then David Khne, what did I text you exactly that?

1273
00:50:08,160 --> 00:50:10,239
Speaker 1: He said? I I think he was like, yeah, not

1274
00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:12,480
Speaker 1: only are Bobby Wood Junior and Gunner Henderson all star

1275
00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:15,440
Speaker 1: candidates for the short opposition, they're also MVP candidates. Volpi

1276
00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:18,359
Speaker 1: not on the same level there, Buster, And he didn't

1277
00:50:18,360 --> 00:50:20,560
Speaker 1: say a word. He just got shut up so quickly.

1278
00:50:20,880 --> 00:50:24,000
Speaker 1: So this isn't even like Anthony Volpe good baseball player,

1279
00:50:24,239 --> 00:50:27,040
Speaker 1: objectively good baseball player. This isn't even like Yankee slander

1280
00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:31,360
Speaker 1: or hate. But comparing him to fucking Gunner Henderson and

1281
00:50:31,360 --> 00:50:34,360
Speaker 1: Bobby Wood Junior, Fransis Glendor has better numbers than Anthony

1282
00:50:34,360 --> 00:50:36,359
Speaker 1: Olby this year. I know it's different leagues, but like,

1283
00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:40,240
Speaker 1: I mean, geez, Buster Olney, really, man, he's so weird.

1284
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:41,960
Speaker 1: Sometimes this takes Yeah.

1285
00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:44,240
Speaker 2: Volpis also is just like the first few weeks the season,

1286
00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:46,080
Speaker 2: it was great and he is striking out less, but

1287
00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:49,200
Speaker 2: the power's totally gone right now from his profile and

1288
00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:51,400
Speaker 2: he's not He has been hitting very well for like

1289
00:50:51,400 --> 00:50:53,200
Speaker 2: a month now, so again, he's a good little player.

1290
00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:55,120
Speaker 2: I don't think he's anywhere worth all start consideration. Gun

1291
00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:57,839
Speaker 2: Henderson ligitally might be the MVP of the league, Amaron Judge.

1292
00:50:57,880 --> 00:51:00,080
Speaker 2: Whoever wins the division is gonna be the MVP. But

1293
00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:01,880
Speaker 2: it was a nice try. I got another media marvel.

1294
00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:03,520
Speaker 1: I just found this one. I just remembered about it.

1295
00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:05,120
Speaker 1: Mark Bawman.

1296
00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:07,799
Speaker 2: Mark Bowman, he is Braves beat rither for MLB dot

1297
00:51:07,840 --> 00:51:10,080
Speaker 2: Com for like twenty years. He has like that classic

1298
00:51:10,400 --> 00:51:12,279
Speaker 2: headshot on Twitter that I'm sure you've seen before.

1299
00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:16,800
Speaker 1: Very fat guy with a goate. I'll drop you his

1300
00:51:16,800 --> 00:51:19,040
Speaker 1: his at right now. Yeah, definitely put it in there

1301
00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:22,919
Speaker 1: for me because I I off of name alone, I'm

1302
00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:24,280
Speaker 1: not quite sure.

1303
00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:28,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, name of course not but relevant. So he covers

1304
00:51:28,640 --> 00:51:31,040
Speaker 2: the Braves. He had the tweet about Austin Riley over

1305
00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:35,120
Speaker 2: the weekend. Austin Riley this weekend his season completely turned around.

1306
00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:39,120
Speaker 2: He raised his ops like a full hundred points this weekend. Yeah,

1307
00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:40,879
Speaker 2: the home run every single game against the Rays. That

1308
00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:42,759
Speaker 2: that offense is fully gotten going, even though they lost

1309
00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:44,640
Speaker 2: Michael Harris. But now jer Kell nic cleaning off, which

1310
00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:46,200
Speaker 2: is so much fun. I love that so much. It's

1311
00:51:46,200 --> 00:51:50,800
Speaker 2: so great, but his tweet from Mark Bowman on a

1312
00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:53,400
Speaker 2: Saturday afternoon, that's gonna be one of the most memorable

1313
00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:55,279
Speaker 2: and emotional homers of Austin Riley's career. He had an

1314
00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:57,480
Speaker 2: eighth in game time home run today for the Braves.

1315
00:51:58,080 --> 00:52:00,440
Speaker 2: He lost a good friend and mentor in a car

1316
00:52:00,480 --> 00:52:03,200
Speaker 2: wreck last night. I don't want I don't want to

1317
00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:05,439
Speaker 2: release who it is until after Riley has the chance

1318
00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:08,800
Speaker 2: to talk about the postgame what He tweeted the words

1319
00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:10,960
Speaker 2: this is what happened, but I don't want to say

1320
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:14,120
Speaker 2: it insane And then he got a lot of shit

1321
00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:15,640
Speaker 2: for this, and a couple of minutes later he quotes

1322
00:52:15,640 --> 00:52:18,160
Speaker 2: tweeted his own tweet. I should have known this would

1323
00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:20,760
Speaker 2: create speculation. Yeah, you don't think he tried to intentionally

1324
00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:24,120
Speaker 2: create speculations. After someone close to somebody else, former Braids

1325
00:52:24,239 --> 00:52:26,640
Speaker 2: hitting instructor Mike Brumley, was killed in a car accident,

1326
00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:29,360
Speaker 2: Riley spent time working with him in Baltimore. This week,

1327
00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:34,080
Speaker 2: Jesus Christ, this beat writer for the Braves, publicized he got.

1328
00:52:34,080 --> 00:52:34,960
Speaker 1: Murdered for this time.

1329
00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:37,959
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, people like, why would you put this out?

1330
00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:41,960
Speaker 2: He baited death, He baited that like someone really close

1331
00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:44,799
Speaker 2: to Austin Riley in the BRAS organization, was tragically killed

1332
00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:45,680
Speaker 2: in a car accident.

1333
00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:51,239
Speaker 1: Jesus on Saturday night. I mean, this happened. People are shameless, man.

1334
00:52:51,280 --> 00:52:53,280
Speaker 1: I know I bait people all the time on Twitter,

1335
00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:55,880
Speaker 1: but you won't ever catch me doing that shit totally.

1336
00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:59,000
Speaker 2: But it's just this such there's so many baseball journalists

1337
00:52:59,040 --> 00:53:01,839
Speaker 2: out there who just don't don't really have anyone's best

1338
00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:04,399
Speaker 2: interest in mine other than their own. No, they don't

1339
00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:06,360
Speaker 2: care about privacy, they don't care about accuracy.

1340
00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:09,080
Speaker 1: He's like, I should have known this created speculation. No,

1341
00:53:09,520 --> 00:53:12,920
Speaker 1: no shit, you typed the speculation. You did the whole speculation,

1342
00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:15,400
Speaker 1: You created it. He lost a good friended mentor in

1343
00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:17,239
Speaker 1: a car wreck last night. I don't want to release

1344
00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:19,440
Speaker 1: them until Riley's chance to talk about it. You literally

1345
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:22,760
Speaker 1: did this during the game. It was three forty six pm,

1346
00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:25,000
Speaker 1: the game was going on. Didn't have to tweet it,

1347
00:53:25,040 --> 00:53:27,520
Speaker 1: didn't have to be that guy insane just so so

1348
00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:29,040
Speaker 1: I was so annoying. Feel bad for the braves in

1349
00:53:29,080 --> 00:53:31,160
Speaker 1: Austin Riley as well. Just put that out there. Yeah, horrible,

1350
00:53:31,239 --> 00:53:32,120
Speaker 1: it's hard tragedy.

1351
00:53:32,160 --> 00:53:34,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's awful, But I just wanted to shout that

1352
00:53:34,680 --> 00:53:36,680
Speaker 2: out because it was such a such a frustrating thing

1353
00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:38,719
Speaker 2: to see on Twitter. But then last media marvel, there's

1354
00:53:38,719 --> 00:53:43,400
Speaker 2: a good one. Snoop Dogg, known baseball journalists baseball fishingadough

1355
00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:46,080
Speaker 2: if the Brewers had him in. They did the whole

1356
00:53:46,080 --> 00:53:48,320
Speaker 2: event with Snoop Dogg on Saturday. I don't know why.

1357
00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:50,560
Speaker 2: I didn't know the pretense of it, but he was

1358
00:53:50,560 --> 00:53:52,080
Speaker 2: like in the player's tunnel with the players before the

1359
00:53:52,080 --> 00:53:53,720
Speaker 2: game taking pictures and he was in the booth.

1360
00:53:54,040 --> 00:53:57,000
Speaker 1: I don't know how. Yes, I don't know why, no idea,

1361
00:53:57,120 --> 00:53:59,800
Speaker 1: but he was announcing and he was like, yeah, I

1362
00:53:59,800 --> 00:54:01,440
Speaker 1: can't in the players entrance. I'm a player.

1363
00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:03,719
Speaker 2: And then they were laughing about that. And then he

1364
00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:05,680
Speaker 2: saw Eli de la Cruz make a throw. He was like,

1365
00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:06,399
Speaker 2: who is that?

1366
00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:08,359
Speaker 1: He was like it was incredible.

1367
00:54:08,840 --> 00:54:10,239
Speaker 2: He was like, man, he's got a how woods there,

1368
00:54:10,280 --> 00:54:13,040
Speaker 2: He's got his pocket, He's got a rocket in his pocket.

1369
00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:14,520
Speaker 1: And I was like, this is really cool. I feel

1370
00:54:14,520 --> 00:54:16,200
Speaker 1: like just baseball is a sport that gets get keep

1371
00:54:16,280 --> 00:54:16,600
Speaker 1: the most.

1372
00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:18,440
Speaker 2: We're we're not we're allowed to have the least fun

1373
00:54:18,440 --> 00:54:20,680
Speaker 2: with baseball, and I think it's telling that, like just

1374
00:54:20,719 --> 00:54:23,840
Speaker 2: one like cool edgy baseball blog and podcast that everyone

1375
00:54:23,840 --> 00:54:25,600
Speaker 2: seems to love and it's like some of the worst

1376
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:27,560
Speaker 2: contents ever been created. Yeah, Like there's a tiny bit

1377
00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:29,279
Speaker 2: of fun that seeps into baseball and people like this

1378
00:54:29,400 --> 00:54:32,719
Speaker 2: is great. But like basketball, football, even hockey, there's so

1379
00:54:32,760 --> 00:54:34,080
Speaker 2: much more fun had in those sports. But it was

1380
00:54:34,120 --> 00:54:36,760
Speaker 2: a nice moment of levity for baseball for the Brewers

1381
00:54:36,800 --> 00:54:38,880
Speaker 2: to let Snoop Dogg be in the booth and just

1382
00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:40,600
Speaker 2: like have some fun. He don't know any of the players,

1383
00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:42,719
Speaker 2: he's know anything going on. He understands how baseball works,

1384
00:54:42,760 --> 00:54:44,720
Speaker 2: and he was like, this is cool. I like this stuff.

1385
00:54:44,840 --> 00:54:46,640
Speaker 1: That was like when they let Snoop Dogg do the

1386
00:54:46,680 --> 00:54:48,520
Speaker 1: announcing for I think it was like Logan or Jake

1387
00:54:48,560 --> 00:54:50,759
Speaker 1: Paul's like boxing and he's just like on there, just

1388
00:54:50,760 --> 00:54:54,239
Speaker 1: like cursing, like oh shit, yeah exactly. But I like that.

1389
00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:56,360
Speaker 1: I like, I like having fun things with baseball. Baseball

1390
00:54:56,400 --> 00:54:57,760
Speaker 1: is really fun sport. Baseball's incredible.

1391
00:54:57,760 --> 00:55:00,239
Speaker 2: I'm sure I think that if you're watching this, so said,

1392
00:55:00,280 --> 00:55:02,240
Speaker 2: baseball sometimes allows itself to have some fun.

1393
00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:04,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, love that. Love that for baseball. Quick Media Marvels.

1394
00:55:04,760 --> 00:55:06,880
Speaker 1: For this episode, we were talking a lot about stuff today,

1395
00:55:07,080 --> 00:55:10,040
Speaker 1: and we have a Rangers series to preview here. We

1396
00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:12,640
Speaker 1: don't get to see the Texas Rangers as much as well.

1397
00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:14,279
Speaker 1: We'll get to see him every year now thanks to

1398
00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:17,040
Speaker 1: the new schedule. Am I right, James? Get the fuck

1399
00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:19,000
Speaker 1: out of here. I'm not doing it right now. I can't.

1400
00:55:19,040 --> 00:55:21,480
Speaker 1: I can't but give us the pitching matchups. How about

1401
00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:24,960
Speaker 1: that pitching match of this series against the Rangers? Monday night?

1402
00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:27,280
Speaker 2: Quick turnaround, that's flying to Texas after this game on Sunday.

1403
00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:29,160
Speaker 2: Did you see Pete's alpha getting on the plane.

1404
00:55:29,280 --> 00:55:31,360
Speaker 1: It was pretty It was awesome. I'll give you that.

1405
00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:33,399
Speaker 1: That's good vibes. It was funny. The team, the team

1406
00:55:33,440 --> 00:55:34,480
Speaker 1: seems like they are having more fun.

1407
00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:38,399
Speaker 2: But Monday Night John Gray versus David Peterson, Tuesday Night

1408
00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:41,960
Speaker 2: Luisa from Universus Michael Lorenzen, and Wednesday night series and

1409
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:42,520
Speaker 2: again and nights.

1410
00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:44,399
Speaker 1: We got late recording on Wednesday night for the two

1411
00:55:44,440 --> 00:55:47,239
Speaker 1: of US Sean and I versus Andrew Heiny. So just

1412
00:55:47,239 --> 00:55:48,960
Speaker 1: just to complain more, we also have a late recording

1413
00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:51,440
Speaker 1: on Sunday night. We have Sunday Night baseball against the Cubs.

1414
00:55:51,480 --> 00:55:54,239
Speaker 1: What the fuck is that? Maybe maybe we'll watch that

1415
00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:58,480
Speaker 1: one together. Maybe stream something. Ooh nope, I will be

1416
00:55:58,680 --> 00:56:01,560
Speaker 1: at my friend's bachelor part shout out, brat forgot even

1417
00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:04,160
Speaker 1: Sunday night. You still be there? Ooh maybe not. I

1418
00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:06,160
Speaker 1: don't know. We'll play it by year. Back to the

1419
00:56:06,280 --> 00:56:08,120
Speaker 1: Rangers here where we could talk about that off are

1420
00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:10,400
Speaker 1: you guys don't need to hear that Rangers team this

1421
00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:14,560
Speaker 1: year is weird. They are in a similar spots mess.

1422
00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:16,560
Speaker 1: I think they're thirty three and thirty seven or thirty

1423
00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:19,320
Speaker 1: four and thirty something along those lines, very very similar.

1424
00:56:19,960 --> 00:56:23,000
Speaker 1: But they're a better team. I think that's safe to say.

1425
00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:24,680
Speaker 1: This is a team that won the World Series last year.

1426
00:56:24,800 --> 00:56:27,200
Speaker 1: Cory Sieger, after a slow start, completely back to being

1427
00:56:27,280 --> 00:56:30,880
Speaker 1: Gorgy Seeger so good. Weirdly, Josh Smith has been one

1428
00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:33,080
Speaker 1: of their better hitters this year. I don't know how

1429
00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:35,759
Speaker 1: or why, but he's got a WRC plus and an

1430
00:56:35,760 --> 00:56:39,680
Speaker 1: OPS over eight hundred, which is disgusting. Marcus simeon pros pro.

1431
00:56:39,840 --> 00:56:41,879
Speaker 1: All he does is hit and play baseball and play

1432
00:56:41,920 --> 00:56:44,640
Speaker 1: second base every single day. But then you've got Adulas Garcia,

1433
00:56:44,640 --> 00:56:46,800
Speaker 1: who's been ice cool. You've got Why Langford who still

1434
00:56:46,880 --> 00:56:49,400
Speaker 1: has not hit a baseball outside of a stadium this

1435
00:56:49,480 --> 00:56:51,920
Speaker 1: year with only one home run. They're playing guys like

1436
00:56:51,920 --> 00:56:54,880
Speaker 1: Travis Jankowski a lot, Ezekiel Duran is playing a lot.

1437
00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:57,240
Speaker 1: They're trying to figure it out on the offense side

1438
00:56:57,400 --> 00:56:59,960
Speaker 1: because the four guys are really carrying it right now,

1439
00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:03,560
Speaker 1: and then on the pitching side they're good but not

1440
00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:06,080
Speaker 1: good and also maybe they're better than they should. This

1441
00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:08,120
Speaker 1: is a weird Rangers team. I got no vibe with

1442
00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:08,759
Speaker 1: them right now.

1443
00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:11,239
Speaker 2: Met's actually a better reckon the range right now. They're

1444
00:57:11,280 --> 00:57:13,960
Speaker 2: thirty three and thirty eight after did they lose? Yeah,

1445
00:57:13,960 --> 00:57:16,000
Speaker 2: they like got shut up on Americas and Logan Gilbert

1446
00:57:16,000 --> 00:57:18,800
Speaker 2: on Sunday. But it seems like kind of similar to

1447
00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:21,240
Speaker 2: last year where they're just they just don't look like

1448
00:57:21,360 --> 00:57:23,240
Speaker 2: the best team at all. But again they able to

1449
00:57:23,240 --> 00:57:24,320
Speaker 2: get hot and get hot and they.

1450
00:57:24,280 --> 00:57:26,440
Speaker 1: Little World Series hangover to I think, But I.

1451
00:57:26,440 --> 00:57:28,400
Speaker 2: Think it's also again it's last year they weren't they

1452
00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:30,760
Speaker 2: just got super hot, like and they're they're doing the

1453
00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:33,040
Speaker 2: thing I talked about the bastardization of baseball, where all

1454
00:57:33,040 --> 00:57:35,440
Speaker 2: you really have to do is just hang around five hundred.

1455
00:57:35,480 --> 00:57:37,080
Speaker 2: It's all you have to do in baseball these days,

1456
00:57:37,160 --> 00:57:38,920
Speaker 2: and the Rangers show you because you Rangers won a

1457
00:57:38,960 --> 00:57:41,360
Speaker 2: while eleven straight games on the road. They didn't really

1458
00:57:41,400 --> 00:57:43,120
Speaker 2: have any good pitchers in the playoffs, they still were

1459
00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:44,840
Speaker 2: able to do this. Like Nathan Valdi's been good, but

1460
00:57:44,960 --> 00:57:48,280
Speaker 2: he's just a taking time bomb. They're hoping that that

1461
00:57:48,360 --> 00:57:49,960
Speaker 2: the gram and sure has are come back. Interesting that

1462
00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:51,720
Speaker 2: we're gonna play the series and neither of those guys

1463
00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:52,919
Speaker 2: are in the picture.

1464
00:57:53,760 --> 00:57:56,000
Speaker 1: Ever gonna pitch against the Mets. He said, yeah, he

1465
00:57:56,000 --> 00:57:57,960
Speaker 1: said he's coming. He say he's playing on August. Still,

1466
00:57:57,960 --> 00:57:59,280
Speaker 1: he said he's been throwing. So I don't know. We

1467
00:57:59,280 --> 00:57:59,560
Speaker 1: don't know.

1468
00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:03,640
Speaker 2: Is Kevin like the three the four guys in this

1469
00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:06,400
Speaker 2: team have thrown sixty innings this year are Andrew Heeney,

1470
00:58:06,680 --> 00:58:11,240
Speaker 2: Michael Lorenzen, John Gray, and Nathan Valdi. So three perpetually

1471
00:58:11,280 --> 00:58:14,120
Speaker 2: injured pitchers and Michael Lorenzen and Michael Lorenzen they signed

1472
00:58:14,200 --> 00:58:15,720
Speaker 2: him what in the middle of March, Like, it's just

1473
00:58:16,240 --> 00:58:18,200
Speaker 2: it's a strange roster. But I think their whole thing,

1474
00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:21,160
Speaker 2: their whole goal is hang around five hundred, try and

1475
00:58:21,200 --> 00:58:23,560
Speaker 2: have a run. Maybe the gramachers are come back to

1476
00:58:23,600 --> 00:58:25,080
Speaker 2: be the top of the rotation and then try to

1477
00:58:25,080 --> 00:58:26,960
Speaker 2: do the whole thing again, because the lineup still can

1478
00:58:27,040 --> 00:58:29,920
Speaker 2: be that good. But yeah, they's just strange and a

1479
00:58:29,920 --> 00:58:30,480
Speaker 2: strange spot.

1480
00:58:30,960 --> 00:58:32,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I got a familiar face as well. We'll be

1481
00:58:32,600 --> 00:58:35,040
Speaker 1: seeing David Robertson, who is pitching really well this year,

1482
00:58:35,080 --> 00:58:36,600
Speaker 1: has been one of their better bullpen arms, along with

1483
00:58:36,680 --> 00:58:40,200
Speaker 1: Kirby Yates, who has been pretty shut down. Pretty cash money,

1484
00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:42,120
Speaker 1: they said, jose Le clerk, remember how you put the

1485
00:58:42,120 --> 00:58:43,920
Speaker 1: team on your back to win a World Series for us?

1486
00:58:44,160 --> 00:58:44,560
Speaker 1: Fuck you?

1487
00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:47,240
Speaker 2: Kirby Yates is the closer. Well the clerk wasn't pitching well,

1488
00:58:47,280 --> 00:58:48,280
Speaker 2: like that's just gonna happen.

1489
00:58:48,320 --> 00:58:51,720
Speaker 1: But it's just a strange, this strange team. Like sometimes

1490
00:58:51,720 --> 00:58:52,760
Speaker 1: the looking at me like how did you guys win

1491
00:58:52,800 --> 00:58:55,760
Speaker 1: the World Series last year? But yeah, I know how

1492
00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:58,160
Speaker 1: a Dolis Garcia and Corey Seer and Evan Carter. Evan

1493
00:58:58,200 --> 00:59:01,880
Speaker 1: Carter hurt struggling mightily to start to hear.

1494
00:59:02,200 --> 00:59:05,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, just he can't hit the lefties. I don't know,

1495
00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:07,600
Speaker 2: and like Langford two, like maybe just got pa a

1496
00:59:07,600 --> 00:59:08,640
Speaker 2: little more in the minor leagues.

1497
00:59:08,640 --> 00:59:11,240
Speaker 1: I don't know. This roster is bizarre. It is like

1498
00:59:11,280 --> 00:59:12,760
Speaker 1: I'm not scared of them, but I also don't know.

1499
00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:15,000
Speaker 1: Also the pitching matchups this series are weird, like David

1500
00:59:15,040 --> 00:59:18,080
Speaker 1: Peterson against that lineup, then we get Lorenzo and Heaney.

1501
00:59:18,120 --> 00:59:19,880
Speaker 1: I'm less scared than anyway. John Gray is having a.

1502
00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:21,560
Speaker 2: Very good season. He's had a big time resurgence. He's

1503
00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:23,320
Speaker 2: thrown a lot of fastballs and sliders.

1504
00:59:23,360 --> 00:59:26,360
Speaker 1: But I don't know. This isn't a big vibe series.

1505
00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:28,280
Speaker 1: We don't play when the last time we even played

1506
00:59:28,320 --> 00:59:30,680
Speaker 1: in Texas? Like it's true, we could probably find that out.

1507
00:59:32,080 --> 00:59:34,880
Speaker 1: I can't do that right now, but why not? How

1508
00:59:34,880 --> 00:59:36,440
Speaker 1: am I gonna find that? One's the last time we

1509
00:59:36,480 --> 00:59:37,320
Speaker 1: played in Texas?

1510
00:59:37,760 --> 00:59:40,120
Speaker 2: I guess me's Mes Mets at Rangers. What do you

1511
00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:44,800
Speaker 2: search Mets Mets Rangers, baseball series history, baseball.

1512
00:59:44,840 --> 00:59:47,919
Speaker 1: Okay, I'll be there for you. Talk about a random

1513
00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:52,520
Speaker 1: player or really RELI like, they don't really is there anybody?

1514
00:59:52,600 --> 00:59:53,880
Speaker 1: They don't really have guys like that.

1515
00:59:53,920 --> 00:59:56,480
Speaker 2: I mean Jonathan Hernandez throws Chad. We know that, but

1516
00:59:56,720 --> 00:59:58,680
Speaker 2: he's I don't know if he's healthy right now.

1517
00:59:58,760 --> 01:00:02,960
Speaker 1: I think he is. Jack Lyernon think is up twenty seventeen. Okay,

1518
01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:05,040
Speaker 1: there he goes. It's a long time ago. Seven years

1519
01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:07,360
Speaker 1: is a long time ago, I think, and they only

1520
01:00:07,360 --> 01:00:09,320
Speaker 1: played a two game series. That's kind of crazy.

1521
01:00:09,440 --> 01:00:11,280
Speaker 2: Jose Rain is on this team. He almost threw a

1522
01:00:11,280 --> 01:00:15,440
Speaker 2: perfect game last week for some reason. Coley Bradford's not like,

1523
01:00:15,520 --> 01:00:17,520
Speaker 2: don't this team is just weird. They just they're a

1524
01:00:17,600 --> 01:00:19,880
Speaker 2: strange ball club. Like we're gonna get a lot of

1525
01:00:19,880 --> 01:00:23,640
Speaker 2: storylines about to Gram and Scherzer. But Jonathan Haannons actually

1526
01:00:23,720 --> 01:00:25,760
