16
00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:59,440
Speaker 5: you win the world Series. That's the big one. So

17
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:01,639
Speaker 5: winning a series right out of the.

18
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:06,039
Speaker 1: Gate, absolutely, So yeah, we'll talk about that week the

19
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 1: weekend in Washington in a minute. Christopher Sanchez starting the

20
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 1: home opener today at Citizens Bank Park versus Herman Marquees

21
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 1: from the Rockies. The first pitch is at three h

22
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,199
Speaker 1: five Eastern, so that is always fun. The home opener,

23
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,320
Speaker 1: as you said, is always great. But while we're talking

24
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 1: about Citizens Bank Park, I do want to mention this.

25
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,760
Speaker 1: This is pretty exciting because Citizens and The Philly Show

26
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:35,319
Speaker 1: teaming up. We're going to have guys our first live

Speaker 1: We're super excited about it. We're going to have a

30
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 1: guest be about half hours, so stop by passing Soy

31
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 1: at Citizens Bank Park for a live Philly show. I

32
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 1: feel like, you know, live show. I mean, Ruben, you

33
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 1: do a lot of live broadcasting. Yeah, you got nervous?

34
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, how are you gonna be nervous?

35
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 1: I might be a little nervous. I don't know, you know,

36
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 1: but I think it's gonna be a lot of fun.

37
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 1: So we wanted to mention that that's very exciting. But

38
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 1: what did we think of the weekend guys? You mentioned

39
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 1: winning the series. It's it's very big. Of course, they

40
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 1: had an opportunity to sweep Sunday, Aaron Nola kind of

41
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 1: mislocated a couple of fastballs, and as it has happened

42
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 1: in the past, a couple of home runs were hit

43
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,080
Speaker 1: and they lose five to one offense didn't help them

44
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,080
Speaker 1: out a lot. But overall, what'd you think of the weekend?

45
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, it would have been nice to come out with

46
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:40,960
Speaker 5: a sweep. I mean, what a kind of an exclamation

47
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 5: point way to open the season if you get on

48
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,359
Speaker 5: there and take three. But you know, like I said,

49
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 5: it's it's important to win series. So you know, Wheel

50
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 5: are very good in the opener, Schwover swung it well

51
00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 5: all weekend. Boom, you know with that big hit in

52
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 5: the opener. Nola, you know, when he makes mistakes over

53
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:08,360
Speaker 5: the plate, he just gets hurt. Because we had John

54
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 5: Smoltz on a while back. I guess it was last summer,

55
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 5: and it was I just remember him calling Aaron Nola

56
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 5: sort of a modern day Greg Maddox, and Greg Maddox

57
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 5: was just brilliant at you know, changing speeds, working the

58
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 5: corners and getting guys to chase. But you know, pitch

59
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 5: looks like a strike, but then it's off the plate.

60
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 5: And when Aaron is good, he does that. But when

61
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 5: he makes a mistake with that fastball over the plate

62
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 5: or if he gets it up a lot of times,

63
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 5: he's going to get hurt because you know, both home

64
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 5: runs he gave up on Sunday were on fastballs that

65
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 5: were like ninety two and change. Once upon a time

66
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 5: that was a big fastball. It's not a big fastball anymore.

67
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:55,839
Speaker 5: You're not going to get it by people. These guys

68
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 5: are geared to hit hit velocity. So if you make

69
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 5: a mistake up, make a mistake over the plate with

70
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 5: that fastball, you're gonna get hurt, and especially if you

71
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 5: have runners on base.

72
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 2: Ahead of those mistakes. That's what happened to him on Sunday.

73
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 3: I thought it was a good weekend. I don't disagree

74
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 3: with you on Nola. A lot of strikes. I really

75
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 3: liked the way Wheeler threw the ball and they bounced

76
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,920
Speaker 3: back after punching out nineteen times in the early part

77
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 3: of the game. And Mackenzie Gore was out standing on

78
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:28,280
Speaker 3: opening day. He was thrown in the shadows, no excuse,

79
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 3: but I mean, it's real difficult to pick up the baseball.

80
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 3: But Wheeler, you know, pitched really, really well. I was

81
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 3: also really impressed by the way Lizardo through the baseball

82
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,680
Speaker 3: and for him to step forward the way he did

83
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 3: in his debut.

84
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 4: Really good stuff using a sweeper.

85
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,919
Speaker 3: Not a slider, A little bit of a different pitch,

86
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 3: a little bit shaped, shaped a little bit differently, and

87
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 3: used it very very well and very effectively. I think

88
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:03,280
Speaker 3: in general, they pitched pretty well. Romano struggled a little bit,

89
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:04,840
Speaker 3: Alvarado threw well.

90
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 2: Kirk ran through the ball well.

91
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 4: Some guys did you know, did a pretty good job.

92
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:12,599
Speaker 4: So all in all, I think it was a positive.

93
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 3: I think the back part of the lineup, even though

94
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 3: Trade Turner was not in, you know, in the lineup.

95
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 3: A couple of times they get Mundo Sosa had a

96
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 3: couple of really good days. He always comes through every

97
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 3: time he gets opportunities. So some contributions from different guys

98
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,599
Speaker 3: and just overall, you know, pretty decent two out of

99
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 3: three from a team that's not really going to be

100
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,600
Speaker 3: going anywhere, and it's a young team and it's still

101
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,719
Speaker 3: rebuilding with with a lot of problems when their bullpen.

102
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,040
Speaker 4: But they they did their job.

103
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 3: They won two out of three, and uh, I think

104
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 3: that's a positive going into uh into the game.

105
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 4: To see me or this afternoon.

106
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, so let's let's uh, it's Monday, and you know Monday, guys,

107
00:05:55,960 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 1: what it is. It's best week by Manco Manco, Yeah baby, yeah,

108
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 1: Mango and Manco the best of the Best, Best Week.

109
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 1: It's where we pick our best Phillies performance Player of

110
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 1: the week. Guys who wants to get the ball rolling

111
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 1: today on Manco MANC the Best Week.

112
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:27,039
Speaker 5: I'll take the first slice of that pizza.

113
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 2: Rube is not surprised. No, I'm gonna go Kyle Schwarber

114
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,280
Speaker 2: as my Mancos and Manco's best of the Week.

115
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 5: You know, he hit under two hundred and spring training,

116
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,919
Speaker 5: strike out, struck out a bunch. He will strike out, obviously,

117
00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:45,919
Speaker 5: and he had some strikeouts over the weekend, but he also.

118
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 2: Had five hits and two bombs.

119
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:50,719
Speaker 5: I think he only had nine hits in spring training,

120
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,359
Speaker 5: so he comes out with five in the first three games,

121
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 5: and it's like it's like riding a bike for Kyle Schwarber.

122
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,479
Speaker 5: Once the bright lights go on and the third deck

123
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 5: goes on the stadium, he's ready to go and hit

124
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 5: a big home run, hit a couple of big home

125
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:09,359
Speaker 5: runs for this team, and you know, looking good starting

126
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 5: off an important season both for the team and for

127
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 5: kyleege Schwarber is the Ans a free agent year and

128
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 5: I expect them to produce in a big way like

129
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 5: he has in his first three seasons in Philadelphia. We've

130
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 5: said it before, it's been a great signing. It's been

131
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 5: a great signing for the Phillies, a four year, seventy

132
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 5: nine million dollar deal. He's entering the last year of

133
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 5: that deal, and I expect a good one. And the

134
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 5: first weekend was a good one.

135
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 3: And the cool thing about that is that just a

136
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 3: segue a little bit, is that he did it as

137
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 3: a one hole hitter and a four hole hitter. It

138
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 3: didn't affect him at all. He still did his thing,

139
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 3: baby anyway, Go.

140
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 2: Ahead, Todd. So what you're saying is hitting is hitting.

141
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 5: Really doesn't matter a lot where you, uh, what position

142
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 5: you're in when you step in that battest box, at

143
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,080
Speaker 5: least in terms of where the lineup stacks up, at

144
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 5: least not for him.

145
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 1: He almost had number three today too. He hit two

146
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 1: balls foul that went like about three hundred four hundred

147
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 1: feet down the right field line, and then the next

148
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,520
Speaker 1: one went in like the third deck down the right

149
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 1: field line. He's like, I thought I was on it,

150
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 1: but I guess it was just a tad early. I'm

151
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 1: sure that's gotta be a sickening feeling, right you hit

152
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 1: stroke two balls like that and that hard and just file.

153
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 1: So yeah, kylesh Arf my MANCO best of the week,

154
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: best week, I'm going with Alec Bohe. We talked about him,

155
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 1: of course on Friday, but he had that huge clutch

156
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 1: hit late in Thursday's win and on Opening Day and

157
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,680
Speaker 1: just everything they hated he had to deal with in

158
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 1: the offseason, all the uncertainty, you know, he said he

159
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,440
Speaker 1: tried to block it out as much as possible, but

160
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,439
Speaker 1: then every time he went to his gym in Houston,

161
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:46,959
Speaker 1: everybody was telling him, are you going You're getting traded,

162
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:49,679
Speaker 1: You're getting traded, You're getting traded. Finds out he's not

163
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 1: going to get traded, comes into camp with a great

164
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 1: attitude and just kind of does what he does and

165
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 1: delivered a really clutch hit to the roll to stroke

166
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 1: to double the left field wall to help them win

167
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,679
Speaker 1: that game on Opening Day, so kind of bailed out

168
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:07,560
Speaker 1: Jorge Romano and helped the team to win. So it

169
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 1: was nice to see Alec Boum do that on Opening Day.

170
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,880
Speaker 1: So that's my MANKO best of the week.

171
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, my best of the week, And I'll just go

172
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 3: to my mainstay, and it could have been marsh It

173
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 3: could have been in Mundo Sosa.

174
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 4: I mentioned him earlier. Marsh had a nice couple of days.

175
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go with Zach Wheeler.

176
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:30,559
Speaker 3: Zach Wheeler's just so steady, so good, comes out and

177
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 3: even in the game when you know somebody throws you know,

178
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 3: his opposing starter as nineteen punchouts, he still keeps his

179
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 3: team in the game.

180
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 4: They do not.

181
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,559
Speaker 3: He does not get the w but keeps the team

182
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:46,920
Speaker 3: in it and does his job.

183
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 4: Pitches what six or seven strong.

184
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:54,960
Speaker 3: And just really impressive as usual, getting people out pretty efficient,

185
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:57,559
Speaker 3: wasn't super super sharp.

186
00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 4: But still really really good.

187
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,320
Speaker 3: And and uh, I just said, I just love the

188
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:03,319
Speaker 3: way he sets the tone.

189
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 4: Man.

190
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 3: He remains the best starting pitcher in baseball for me,

191
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,440
Speaker 3: and he proves it day in and day out on

192
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 3: the mount.

193
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 5: You know, I heard some chatter that, uh, you know,

194
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 5: those shadows in opening day they were real. I mean,

195
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 5: I mean, that's a lot of strikeouts, but it was

196
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 5: tough to see the ball.

197
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 2: And I heard some chatter that.

198
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 5: Folks were saying, well, that's excuse making, and okay, whatever,

199
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 5: it's you know, the people saying it's excuse making by

200
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:35,200
Speaker 5: the Phillies hitters. Well, I think if you want to

201
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:39,840
Speaker 5: know that the shadows were real and really affecting hitters,

202
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:44,880
Speaker 5: read what Wheeler said that he was hustling back out

203
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:46,840
Speaker 5: to the mound every gening because he wanted to take

204
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 5: take advantage of the shadows. So he knew, you know,

205
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,079
Speaker 5: he knew they were real too, and he utilized them

206
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 5: and exploited them as well.

207
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 1: Absolutely no doubt. And I want to mention this too.

219
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 4: Wow?

220
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: I just looked him up at Little Phillies Trivia question.

221
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 1: Who wasn't he involved in a trade? Big trade? I

222
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:53,719
Speaker 1: can't remember who that was for. But Gary Matthews. I

223
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 1: think he was in the Gary Matthews deal many many

224
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 1: moons ago. But so yeah, go on the YouTube channel

225
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,559
Speaker 1: and check that out. So I wanted to update you

226
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,720
Speaker 1: guys a couple of things, some injury updates. So Trey

227
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 1: Turner did not play on Sunday. He also didn't play

228
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:14,239
Speaker 1: on Saturday. Got scratched on Saturday because of back spasms.

229
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 1: He is feeling better, but Rob Thompson said after Sunday's

230
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,920
Speaker 1: game that he's probably not going to play in the

231
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:23,679
Speaker 1: home opener. The idea being, of course, you have Tuesdays

232
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:27,199
Speaker 1: off day and you can give his back another day

233
00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 1: of rest. So this is something that's kind of been

234
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 1: bothering him. It sounds like for maybe the past week.

235
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:34,960
Speaker 1: He said it crept up. His right hip kind of

236
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 1: locked up on him about three or four days left

237
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,520
Speaker 1: of spring training, and so they just want to kind

238
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:41,959
Speaker 1: of make sure that that they can knock that out

239
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 1: of there. So don't expect Trey Turner to be in

240
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:47,079
Speaker 1: the lineup and the home opener. Expect JT. Real Muto

241
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 1: to be in the lineup on the home opener. He

242
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 1: followed a ball off his foot Saturday night and he

243
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 1: felt better. He could have played today, I guess in

244
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 1: an emergency situation, but they didn't. Obviously they did not

245
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 1: want him to play. They wanted to give Marshawn to start,

246
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,679
Speaker 1: no reason to rush him back. So he seems to

247
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 1: be doing okay. Ranger Swarez threw a bullpen on Saturday

248
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,720
Speaker 1: in clear Water. He came out of that okay today.

249
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,240
Speaker 1: He felt fine today. So the next step for him

250
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,680
Speaker 1: is gonna be an updown bullpen session was basically means

251
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 1: like two innings of work, So he's kind of progressing.

252
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 1: So I wanted to give you guys some updates on that.

253
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 5: So who do you expect to throw out the first pitch,

254
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 5: the ceremonial first pitch at the home opening.

255
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 2: We got your guesses.

256
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:36,679
Speaker 1: I have no idea who might toss out.

257
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:41,880
Speaker 3: I'm gonna toss out Cole Hammel's really maybe what.

258
00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:44,280
Speaker 2: About somebody with the Eagles they did win the Super Bowl?

259
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 4: Could it be BG? Could it be Jason Kelcey?

260
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:50,200
Speaker 2: BG would be a good one.

261
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 1: That would be a good one. Yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely,

262
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,680
Speaker 1: that would be a good one. That absolutely would be

263
00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:58,200
Speaker 1: a good one. I tell you what. A lot of

264
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 1: Eagles chants this weekend and that's parked in. Could somebody

265
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 1: I think it was destinyly Legardo from Phillies Nation. She

266
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 1: grabs something off of some Reddit page from Nationals fans,

267
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 1: and there some lady was guy was griping about how

268
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:18,199
Speaker 1: it's sickening to them that they let the Phillies fans

269
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 1: take over Nationals Park, and if I hear another Eagles chant,

270
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 1: I'm going to lose my mind. Something along those lines.

271
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 1: So too bad, Yeah, too bad. Fill your own ballpark, exactly,

272
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:35,000
Speaker 1: fill your own ballpark, no doubt about it. So, hey, guys,

273
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:38,000
Speaker 1: we have another segment here. We didn't get into Hajesus Lizardo,

274
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 1: but I wanted to talk about Hazus citizens' money moves. Okay,

275
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 1: make sense of your money. This is where we kind

276
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:49,400
Speaker 1: of go over the money play, money, decision, money moment

277
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 1: from the past week. And I think we think it's

278
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 1: got to be Hazel's Tzardo. And I think the move

279
00:14:56,520 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 1: that we're referring to is the December trade to bring

280
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 1: Haesus Lozardo to the Phillies. They traded two prospects, Starlin Cobba,

281
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 1: He's a top one hundred prospect by MLB pipeline, and

282
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:13,320
Speaker 1: a Marion Boyd, who's a burner outfielder. They sent them

283
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 1: to the Marlins for Jezus Cizzardo. But guys, Hazelus Cizzarto,

284
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:20,760
Speaker 1: I know only he only went five innings, but eleven strikeouts. Yeah,

285
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 1: second most strikeouts in the Phillies debut. Ever. We were

286
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 1: talking about this on X Saturday Night. Guys, Rubin, you

287
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 1: played in the game of the guy who set the record,

288
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 1: Garrett Stevenson May thirteen, nineteen ninety seven. Garrett Stevenson strikes

289
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 1: out twelve in his Phillies debut.

290
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 4: Rubens had a serious hookwork and I was playing what

291
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 4: centerfield and left field?

292
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 1: I think that day you hit fifth, that day you

293
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 1: knocked in a run. Jim you covered that game for

294
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 1: the Philadelphia in choir. So, yeah, isn't that funny?

295
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 2: I mean, I put Ruben his name in the newspaper.

296
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 4: You made me, Jim, you made me his mom.

297
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 2: His mom cut it out and put it on the fridge,

298
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 2: no doubt.

299
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 6: Hey, the funniest, the craziest part about that is that

300
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 6: I was hitting in the five hole, protecting in the

301
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 6: five hole, protecting Darren Dalton, who was in the four

302
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 6: l You.

303
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 3: Know, your team's not that good when I'm hitting in

304
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 3: the five hole.

305
00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: Wow, but Lozardo, guys, I mean eleven strikeouts in five innings. Ruben,

306
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 1: you mentioned the sweeper. He struck out five on the sweeper,

307
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 1: which is a brand new pitch. He struck out five

308
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 1: on his slider, which is kind of like the pitches

309
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:41,120
Speaker 1: had forever. When his great breaking ball got another on

310
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 1: a fastball. The fastball velo was there. It was ninety

311
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 1: six nine average on Saturday, up one point seven miles

312
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 1: an hour from last season when he was backed up.

313
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 1: I mean, he was bringing it. The breaking stuff was great.

314
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 1: You know, what do we think? I mean that trade

315
00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 1: and then I kind of wrote about this on Saturday.

316
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,919
Speaker 1: That trade, to me, a lot of talk about the

317
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,240
Speaker 1: Phillies are running it back. The Phillies are running it back,

318
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 1: and the players got asked about it a lot in

319
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 1: the spring and they're kind of, yeah, you're kind of

320
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:15,960
Speaker 1: running it back. But I think they kind of said,

321
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,159
Speaker 1: nobody's really given lazarda like the props that he deserves.

322
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,240
Speaker 1: If he's healthy, he can be really really good and

323
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 1: be a real big difference maker. And he kind of

324
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:26,160
Speaker 1: showed an example of that on Saturday.

325
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:30,359
Speaker 5: I thought no question when you when you talk about

326
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 5: you know, UH citizens' money moved to me.

327
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:35,120
Speaker 2: Part of this move is.

328
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 5: Heyesus Lozardo's willingness to be open minded. I mean he

329
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:45,439
Speaker 5: comes into a new situation and he puts his trust

330
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 5: in the in the new pitch. You know, his knew,

331
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 5: his new pitching coach Caleb Coffam and his staff and

332
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 5: all the technology that Phillies use in UH pitch design

333
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:05,720
Speaker 5: and he's you know, added this this sweeper and like

334
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,440
Speaker 5: you said, he got five of eleven strikeouts on that pitch.

335
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:13,159
Speaker 5: It's just his overall and even Wheeler has had it

336
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 5: overall willingness to listen and to work with these guys

337
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:22,639
Speaker 5: and then implement the adjustments that you know, the coaching

338
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 5: staff is helping you with.

339
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 2: They have all this technology that can you know, help.

340
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 5: You with your at least point finger pressure, how it

341
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 5: comes out and then you can make the ball do

342
00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:37,359
Speaker 5: these great things that that we're seeing. So just in

343
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 5: addition to them bringing on Lozardo him being open minded

344
00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:43,679
Speaker 5: and then you know, receiving the instruction he has from

345
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 5: the Phillies pitching people. I wouldn't I would imagine after

346
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,480
Speaker 5: a start like that he's got to be really excited,

347
00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:51,679
Speaker 5: even more so than he was, you know, coming out

348
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:52,359
Speaker 5: of spring training.

349
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 2: New team.

350
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 5: He's got to be like, feel like he has a

351
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 5: new toy and he's ready to run with it. It's

352
00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 5: gotta be excited for the season just to see how

353
00:18:58,760 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 5: good he can be.

354
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,080
Speaker 3: There's a whole lot of things to unpack with this

355
00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:05,720
Speaker 3: citizen's money move. I think that the biggest thing for

356
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:11,600
Speaker 3: me is one, you know, one is I always believe

357
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 3: in starting pitching. You can never have enough starting pitching depth,

358
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:18,440
Speaker 3: as we've seen with Ranger Suarez going down at least

359
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 3: in the early part of the season. And I mean,

360
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,680
Speaker 3: you're bringing not just a quality arm, but it seems

361
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:25,880
Speaker 3: like a quality.

362
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 4: Person and someone wants to get better and better.

363
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:31,639
Speaker 3: As Jim states, the cool thing about this was that

364
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,880
Speaker 3: one he had this brand new pitch and he utilized it.

365
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,359
Speaker 4: Didn't talk about it a whole lot during the during

366
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:37,800
Speaker 4: the spring.

367
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 3: I think that was sort of a they wanted to

368
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:40,760
Speaker 3: make that sort of a surprise.

369
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 4: He was working on a little bit. You know, he's

370
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,520
Speaker 4: obviously working on it during the spring, but didn't talk

371
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:46,320
Speaker 4: about it a lot.

372
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 3: But he also said afterwards that someone mentioned something about

373
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 3: his change up, and his changeup is like a really

374
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 3: good change up and he's had a lot of success

375
00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 3: with it, but he wasn't happy at all with it,

376
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:02,439
Speaker 3: So it was it interesting he was he It seemed

377
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:03,920
Speaker 3: like he liked his outing.

378
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:06,919
Speaker 4: But didn't love his outing. So he's one of those guys.

379
00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 4: For me, it's sort of like a perfectionist.

380
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 2: I love the.

381
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:13,000
Speaker 4: Fact that he didn't feel like he did enough. I

382
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,359
Speaker 4: think that he feels like he can be even better.

383
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 3: And when you have that kind of mentality on the mound,

384
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:22,440
Speaker 3: that's exactly what you want when you're in the front office,

385
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,719
Speaker 3: or you're on the staff, or you're a teammate of his.

386
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:30,960
Speaker 3: You want a guy who's searching for greatness and searching

387
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 3: for perfection. And that's what seems to me what this

388
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 3: guy's mentality is about. Pretty serious kid, goes about his

389
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 3: business very professionally, and the way he handles the media,

390
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 3: and he sort of reminds me a little bit of

391
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,119
Speaker 3: you know, some of the other guys on the staff

392
00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 3: with Aaron Nola and Zach Wheeler, are those guys pretty

393
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,119
Speaker 3: serious about their craft and wanting to be as good

394
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 3: as it can possibly be.

395
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:57,879
Speaker 4: I think it was a strong movement.

396
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 3: And don't rule out that other move that they made

397
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 3: with bringing Kepler in because he's a pretty professional heater,

398
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:04,200
Speaker 3: and that's another.

399
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 4: One of those good moves.

400
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:10,119
Speaker 3: But definitely that's the citizen's money move to talk about

401
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:11,760
Speaker 3: in Lozardo's acquisition.

402
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 1: Rubin, You're right though, Like it's funny now I think about,

403
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,960
Speaker 1: like talking to him after the game on Saturday, he

404
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:21,439
Speaker 1: didn't seem like too ecstatic by anything. It was just

405
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 1: kind of going through it, kind of breaking it down

406
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:27,760
Speaker 1: to us, like what was going on. Because the first

407
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:31,680
Speaker 1: time he threw in spring training, he threw two sweepers, right,

408
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 1: and he kind of really like, he says, guys, this

409
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,200
Speaker 1: is not even a I think the quote was, this

410
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:41,199
Speaker 1: is not even a confirmed pitch yet, so kind of

411
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:43,720
Speaker 1: like everybody relaxed. I don't even know if I'm gonna

412
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:45,920
Speaker 1: throw this thing during the season, like I'm just kind

413
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:49,399
Speaker 1: of fiddling around with a little bit. But then obviously

414
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:54,640
Speaker 1: then he threw twenty one twenty one sweepers on Saturday night,

415
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,680
Speaker 1: and I remember asking him, you know, was that part

416
00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,240
Speaker 1: of the plan to throw that many. He's like, no,

417
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,400
Speaker 1: it's just kind of the way the game went kind

418
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,119
Speaker 1: of how it was feeling coming out of the hand.

419
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,199
Speaker 1: But but yeah, he didn't. He didn't seem like he

420
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:09,120
Speaker 1: was just kind of business kind of breaking it down.

421
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 1: You know, he wasn't super ecstatic with it or anything

422
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 1: that he was like, No, this is just how it

423
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,639
Speaker 1: kind of went. That's how he was feeling good. So

424
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 1: we decided to throw a lot of them.

425
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,840
Speaker 3: And it's just a great another a great new tool

426
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 3: to have in the toolbox. And it's just like a

427
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,520
Speaker 3: lot of guys who have the ability to pitch. If

428
00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 3: he doesn't have a feel for that one, maybe he

429
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,000
Speaker 3: can go to his slider's change up the next time.

430
00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:33,560
Speaker 3: If he doesn't have a feel for you know, his slider,

431
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:35,439
Speaker 3: maybe he goes to the you know, the sweep or

432
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:36,399
Speaker 3: whatever the case may be.

433
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,040
Speaker 4: But that's a nice little tool to have in the box.

434
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, real time adjustments what's working.

435
00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:46,280
Speaker 5: And you know the other half of that equation in

436
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 5: what's working is the catcher. And nobody knows better what

437
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 5: is working than the catcher. He's you know, he gets

438
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,879
Speaker 5: a feel for that swing, he sees the action on

439
00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:59,680
Speaker 5: the pitch, and then he keeps putting the finger down.

440
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,200
Speaker 5: In the old days, you put the fingers down. Now

441
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:09,359
Speaker 5: he pushes the button, but the right buttons. I missed

442
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 5: the fingers.

443
00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 1: You missed the fingers?

444
00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 2: Well, used to always give me finger fingers.

445
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:18,919
Speaker 1: Give you the finger, did you?

446
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:19,240
Speaker 5: Yeah?

447
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:23,040
Speaker 2: It actually well? And I wasn't happy about his stories.

448
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:33,560
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, and sometimes I even got like more than that.

449
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:36,440
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. Okay. Well, so Citizens money moves brought

Speaker 4: How cool is to have the citizens aboard?

455

Speaker 1: That's uh, it's fretty tough man, It's awesome.

Speaker 5: I've been.

Speaker 4: Banking with the citizens for a long time.

459
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:02,359
Speaker 1: Jim, you got to tell this story. This is kind

460
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,440
Speaker 1: of funny. I mean, it's it's true and it's funny.

461
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:05,159
Speaker 1: You got to tell it.

462
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:10,920
Speaker 5: So Citizens, I like, they started, uh in New England

463
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 5: and right where I grew up, near Providence. And my

464
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:18,199
Speaker 5: first little bank account, I think I had eight bucks

465
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 5: from my first communion and I opened my first little

466
00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 5: savings account out of Citizens in Greenville, Rhode Island.

467
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:29,640
Speaker 2: You could look it up as they say.

468
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,959
