ONE i think 48 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 2: The Christian campbell experiment in center field is is, fascinating 49 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 2: BUT i guess they got to keep trying to put 50 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 2: him in different, spots. DON'T i don't really know how 51 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 2: he's supposed to get better defensively at second base if 52 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 2: you then throw him into center a little bit, too 53 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 2: where he's never actually going to play for you because 54 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 2: you Have Saddan, Rafaela Jared. Duran that's a whole, conversation but, 55 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 2: yeah there's it was. FUNNY i was thinking about just 56 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 2: talking about the fact that either The Red sox HAVE 57 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 2: i think the loudest employees ever that are just or 58 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 2: or a lot of people have a lot of. SOURCES 59 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 2: i don't. Know it's amazing how many people all of 60 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 2: a sudden have scoops and insight and information on what's going. 61 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 2: On in The Red sox. ORGANIZATION i know that's not 62 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 2: where we were planning to go unto, this but you 63 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 2: just spark that thought in my. Mind like there's been 64 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 2: some really good, REPORTING i Know June lee like really 65 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 2: broke it all. Down but now it seems like everybody's 66 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 2: got a source in The Red sox, organization which either 67 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 2: tells me people are just grabbing low hanging fruit and 68 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 2: you can kind of just say, anything or or you 69 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 2: got a lot of disgruntle people in that. ORGANIZATION i 70 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 2: think it's a little, both one hundred. 71 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 3: Percent so the question is how many moles do you 72 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 3: have within the organization and how many people are making things? 73 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 3: Up and like there were some reports That Craig breslo vehemently, 74 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 3: denied and obviously it's easy to, deny but how much 75 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 3: of that that is embellished and made up and all? 76 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 3: That how many people are being fed wrong? Information ALL 77 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 3: i know right now is that The Red sox are 78 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 3: in a serious issue right. Now they find themselves in 79 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 3: a pickle because for some reason everybody has latched onto 80 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,599 Speaker 3: them around the league and said you're a joke right. 81 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 3: Now and that may pass in two, weeks BUT i 82 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,919 Speaker 3: mean it doesn't help when you trade your franchise. 83 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 2: Centerpiece so it's FUNNY i thought, That AND i don't 84 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 2: want to make this a Whole dever thing. Again i'm 85 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,159 Speaker 2: just fascinated by the optics because we knew it would 86 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 2: be optically a bad. TRADE i didn't AND i knew 87 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 2: that they would get ripped for, it, sure. 88 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 3: But like this is opening every can of. 89 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 2: WORMS i did not think it would open this can of, 90 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,599 Speaker 2: worms and maybe that was naive of. ME i figured 91 00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:00,479 Speaker 2: it would open some you, know we get some reporting 92 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 2: ON i figured the situation Between devers and the. Team 93 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,679 Speaker 2: you knew the team was, gonna you, know probably share 94 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,039 Speaker 2: some things to make it look better. Optically you knew, 95 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:12,239 Speaker 2: that you, know maybe some some players or people Around 96 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 2: devers may may fire. Back BUT i didn't think it 97 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 2: would result in. THIS i think just opening up of 98 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 2: all of THESE i, mean how is this now turned 99 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 2: into the fact that we're talking about the interview process 100 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 2: for The Red sox and them using AN ai, Bot, 101 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:30,919 Speaker 2: LIKE i don't, KNOW i Think Rafael dever's trade devolve 102 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 2: into a conversation ABOUT ai bots and somebody accidentally not 103 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 2: muting themselves on On zoom and Calling Craig breslo a, stiff, 104 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:46,159 Speaker 2: like it's crazy that it really. Sparked it was like 105 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 2: there was a puddle of gasoline that we didn't even 106 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:50,920 Speaker 2: know was, there or maybe we thought it was just 107 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 2: a few drops of, gasoline and now that That dever's 108 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,480 Speaker 2: trade is the spark that is now ignited a massive 109 00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 2: fire across the Entire. 110 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 3: Orc it's like the gasoline fight In.

Weird it's it's definitely a unique situation. 175 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,679 Speaker 2: There AND i do think when you look across the, league, 176 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 2: though if you and this Is i'm just, assuming but 177 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 2: if you talk To Rob manfred and maybe some other, 178 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 2: Owners i'd imagined That Stu sternberg would be the one 179 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 2: that they have circled saying, like, hey if he, doesn't you, 180 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,199 Speaker 2: know start pushing a little bit more and investing a 181 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 2: little bit, more that's the guy that we probably want to. 182 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 2: SELL i don't think that would be shocking BECAUSE. 183 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,319 Speaker 3: I would assume him And Bob nutting And pittsburgh those 184 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:35,959 Speaker 3: are the two. 185 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 2: Because because they've Enabled, fisher that's very. Clear and you, 186 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 2: KNOW i don't know if we talked about, it BUT 187 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 2: i think it's kind of. Interesting maybe there's a better 188 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 2: reason or an explanation why but removing the reverse boycott 189 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,320 Speaker 2: game from the archives is like a microcosm of the 190 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 2: enabling THAT i think has been happened that has happened 191 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 2: For John fisher In, oakland Slash, vegas slash wherever the, Hell. 192 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 2: Sacramento but what's fascinating with this IS i think it's 193 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 2: not one hundred percent on STEW i think a lot 194 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 2: of it. IS i think you also look at the 195 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 2: county there and there's a lot of ineptitude on both. 196 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 2: Sides they look at them cutting their insurance premium down 197 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 2: or like cutting their coverage so that they could have 198 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 2: a cheaper premium right before hurricane. Season the roof gets 199 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:21,839 Speaker 2: destroyed and now they have way less money to be 200 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 2: able to fix the roof and. Renovate, like that's just 201 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 2: that's Not. Stu but then On stue's, side he's been 202 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,960 Speaker 2: cheap and they've you have two parties here that are 203 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:34,080 Speaker 2: gonna just just kind of bad, heads AND i think 204 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 2: that's been a big part of the. Problem and you 205 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 2: just kind of need somebody to jump in here and 206 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 2: SAY i don't, Care LIKE i understand it's going to 207 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 2: take money to turn this franchise. Around AND i know 208 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,199 Speaker 2: that they're not bad on the, field but in terms 209 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 2: of turning it, around in terms of fan support all that, 210 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 2: stuff you may not be profiting in the first couple of. 211 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 2: Years you may need to front some some. CASH i 212 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 2: just watched My Florida panthers win their second Straight Stanley 213 00:10:56,559 --> 00:11:00,719 Speaker 2: cup twelve years. Ago all the conversation, was what are 214 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 2: they going to? Do they may move this. Team attendance 215 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:06,320 Speaker 2: was a record. Low in twenty. Thirteen you had a new, 216 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 2: Owner Vincent, viola come in and he basically, Said i'm 217 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 2: going to change things around. Here they were mediocre for 218 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 2: a couple of years and kind of cleaned, house reinvented 219 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 2: how they were doing things, there reinvented the marketing, side 220 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 2: brought in a GOOD, gm and not only are they 221 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 2: winning on the, ice you're seeing attendance, up you, KNOW 222 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 2: i think to the point where it's top five in the. 223 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 2: League you've seen REVENUE i think got several hundred. Percent 224 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 2: you're seeing attendance just across the board, increase AND i 225 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 2: think that's something where now you look at a, team 226 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 2: a franchise there that was bought for two hundred and fifty, 227 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 2: million The Forida. Panthers that's now worth one point five plus. 228 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 2: Billion it can be. Done and that's a team that 229 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 2: plays In sunrise by The Sawgrass. Mall SO i don't 230 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 2: want to hear about location in city and whatever Like 231 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 2: Tampa bay Or Saint. Peter that larger area can be 232 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 2: successful if you actually build a proper. Infrastructure AND i 233 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 2: think the league is probably running tired of What Stu 234 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,600 Speaker 2: sternberg is not doing and the fact that he's just 235 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 2: been at this stalemate with the county for so, long 236 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,079 Speaker 2: and the fact that they were so. Close they had 237 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 2: that gas slamp district deal on the, table it was 238 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,720 Speaker 2: all ready to go and then and that was already 239 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 2: something that was like holy. Shit they finally met in the. 240 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 2: Middle they finally made it. Happen AND i think it 241 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 2: was the. SLIGHTEST i was talking to some friends in 242 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 2: construction that we're talking about how much a delay can 243 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 2: actually increase the cost to you, know pull something. Off 244 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 2: and of, course with the storm and, everything it did 245 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:36,840 Speaker 2: delay the construction. Process but they also, said and they've 246 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 2: worked with companies that actually built, stadiums they also, said, 247 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 2: look at the end of the, day if you wanted 248 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,080 Speaker 2: to get that deal, done it shouldn't complicate it that much, 249 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:49,559 Speaker 2: More and to, me it was just a perfect opportunity 250 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 2: to get the cold feet and walk away the fact 251 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 2: that they, say, hey this is going to be an 252 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 2: increase of cost of ten fifteen. Percent we can't. Agree, 253 00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 2: now we're not going to agree on who's going to 254 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:01,200 Speaker 2: front that or how it's going to be. Divided to, 255 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 2: me that's two parties that were not fully invested. In 256 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 2: at the end of the, day it's on the team 257 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 2: to push it across the finish, line And stusteinberg just 258 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 2: doesn't SEEM i think that desperate or eager to push 259 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:14,679 Speaker 2: it across the finish. Line he's happy to just kind 260 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 2: of sit and collect his is revenue sharing money and 261 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 2: hope that, they you, know have a special, year which they've, 262 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,680 Speaker 2: had you, know enough times for him to make enough. 263 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 2: Money that's the. 264 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 3: Thing like they have and they have been since twenty 265 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 3: ten one of the best teams In Major League baseball by. 266 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:34,320 Speaker 3: Record so half the, BATTLE i actually, think like sixty 267 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 3: seventy percent of the battle is building a. Winner you 268 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 3: have to put together a good on field. Product so 269 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:40,960 Speaker 3: if you have a, winner you think people will. Come 270 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 3: But tampa was in a unique situation where they're playing 271 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 3: forty five minutes at across a bridge from their market 272 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:51,080 Speaker 3: In Saint, pete and The trap is not a place 273 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 3: that's going to pull a bunch of. People LIKE i 274 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,680 Speaker 3: haven't been, Before i've heard from enough people that it 275 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 3: is not a nice ballpark at. All so that's one 276 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,679 Speaker 3: of the few examples Where, okay you check the box 277 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 3: of having a competitive. Team they are always competitive because 278 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,200 Speaker 3: he hired the right guy In Andrew, friedman who then 279 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,680 Speaker 3: hired the right guy In Eric neander and Had Peter 280 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 3: bendix under, him and had plenty of other people that 281 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 3: have been very good In Tampa Heim bloom as, Well 282 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 3: like they have found the right people to front the 283 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 3: baseball operation, side and they have built a perennial, winner 284 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 3: or at least a team that is going to be 285 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 3: above five hundred every single. Year so the other part 286 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 3: of that is you got to make sure that your 287 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 3: place is a place that people want to come. To 288 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 3: and then that fell by the, wayside Like Stu sternberg 289 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,720 Speaker 3: just didn't do. That The rays never did. That with 290 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 3: The trap being In Saint pete and being the ballpark 291 00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 3: that it, is so it was kind of there to 292 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 3: be improved for a long. Time it hasn't Been you 293 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 3: run into a natural, disaster which, sucks like flat out, 294 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 3: stinks but now like that almost creates cold, feet and 295 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 3: the insurance premium side of that just. Sucks and there's 296 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 3: a lot of crappy factors that are compounding right, now 297 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,920 Speaker 3: and it's probably time for New blood to be in 298 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 3: charge of the. 299 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 2: Right it should have never got there because it took 300 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 2: way too, long and then a deal that is so 301 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 2: fragilely agreed upon that something can come across and just 302 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 2: wipe it all, out and we're back to square, one 303 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 2: and actually behind square one because now the trap isn't even. 304 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 2: Operable right like, that that that part was was always 305 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 2: going to be an, issue Right they weren't never going 306 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 2: to fix the trop in, time and they'd be playing 307 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 2: it at a random stadium right. Now but they could 308 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 2: have been underway on a new one and at least 309 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 2: you had a solution in. Sight right, now they're in 310 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 2: this weird middle ground where it's, like do you even 311 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 2: bother trying to fix this thing and trying to renovate the, 312 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 2: trap or do you just start back from square one and, say, 313 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 2: hey where are we going to move the. STADIUM i 314 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 2: think it's ridiculous to relocate the. TEAM i Think tampa 315 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 2: is where that team should, be and we've seen another hockey. 316 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 2: Parallel look at what The Tampa Bay lightning have done and. 317 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 2: DOWNTOWN i, mean that's one of the most well supported 318 00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:00,040 Speaker 2: teams in all sports if you look at just the 319 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 2: way that they fill their. Arena success was a big 320 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 2: part of, that BUT i think also investing not only 321 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 2: the product on the, field but investing in the product 322 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 2: that is the, stadium the fan, experience, accessibility involvement in the. 323 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 2: COMMUNITY i don't Think Stu sternberg did any of that, 324 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 2: right AND i think that's clear in the, STADIUM i. 325 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 2: DON'T i think it's clear also with the lack of 326 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 2: engagement with the community as. Well but it's also hard 327 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 2: to do that when the stadium is removed a little 328 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 2: bit from the. Community so there's a lot of aspects 329 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 2: to it THAT i think are, fascinating AND i just 330 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 2: think it takes a new owner who's gonna have, Urgency 331 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 2: who's gonna when you have a team that you didn't 332 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 2: have to pay a billion plus dollars for in the 333 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 2: last few, years and you're not pressed to turn turn 334 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 2: this thing around and actually make it into something much more. Significant, 335 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 2: Again sternberg can just rest on his, laurels take that 336 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 2: revenue sharing money and know that every couple of years 337 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 2: they're going to make the playoffs and we'll make a 338 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 2: little bit of extra. Money it's going to take somebody 339 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 2: that really wants to push this franchise to the next. 340 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 2: Level and if The Florida panthers can get to WHERE 341 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 2: i was going to games on Opening day for with 342 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 2: five thousand people, there AND i really thought that team 343 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,400 Speaker 2: was gonna get relocated to where they're. At, now you've 344 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 2: already got the front office. Infrastructure that's the. Thing it's 345 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 2: not like the organization. Stinks you just need to figure 346 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 2: out the other side of. It AND i think the 347 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 2: other side of it is way, EASIER i really. DO 348 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:18,360 Speaker 2: i think that just requires financial investment a lot more 349 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 2: than you can't just buy A World. Series that's a lot. 350 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:22,640 Speaker 2: Harder AND i know The rays haven't won one, yet 351 00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 2: but you can't even just, buy forget a perennial. Contender 352 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,520 Speaker 2: but as fans start to come in with the infrastructure 353 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 2: that they, have they can actually invest in the product 354 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 2: on the field as.

Terrible we should almost CAN 514 00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:39,679 Speaker 2: i want a petition to just do the double shortstop. 515 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,880 Speaker 3: THING i, Mean i'm listen because like we're not doing 516 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 3: the center field. Thing Like Andy pages would be An 517 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 3: all star if we were doing center. Field, Ye but 518 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:49,200 Speaker 3: like we should. Do we should just put a short, 519 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 3: stop pospecion. 520 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 2: Two middle infielders and call it a. Day it's IT'S 521 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 2: i understand that in a lot of years some really 522 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 2: good second basement would get squeezed out in that in that, 523 00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 2: event but, MAN i think if if the next if 524 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 2: the number two short stop doubles up on second base, 525 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 2: votes he should just put him over at second. Base 526 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 2: it's it's a brutal. Position, YEAH i THINK i Think 527 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 2: labor's got to be the. Guy he's walking more than 528 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 2: he's striking. OUT i think a lot of people had 529 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 2: some doubts about, myself included about how he would Perform Ink. 530 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 2: America and it's getting on base at the three seventy five, 531 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:22,199 Speaker 2: Clips SO i think it. Could it could vary easily 532 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:24,439 Speaker 2: and probably should Be Glaber torrez for. 533 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,399 Speaker 3: Sure third base in The American. League as it stands right, 534 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,639 Speaker 3: Now Jose ramirez nearly has a million votes right. Now 535 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,439 Speaker 3: he's at nine hundred and seventy. Thousand Alex bregman is 536 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,680 Speaker 3: second at just a four hundred, thousand so he's doubling 537 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 3: up the next. Guy Addison barger is third for The 538 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 3: Toronto Blue. Jays zach McKinstry is Fourth, East Soak paredes is, 539 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 3: fifth With Junior kamenero in. Sixth right, NOW i was 540 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 3: thinking maybe a little bit more parades, Love BUT i 541 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 3: do kind of like how this is shaking out at the. 542 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:57,159 Speaker 3: MOMENT i, think, No Jay ram And bregman would be 543 00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 3: a little. WEIRD i Think barger's got to be the 544 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:01,880 Speaker 3: number one. Guy, yeah it has. To it has. 545 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 2: To that walkoff home run was cold, though that was 546 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 2: that was. Nasty, Yeah, SO i, Mean Jay ram is 547 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 2: the guy and he should always be the, guy AND 548 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:13,679 Speaker 2: i love seeing him get the love he. Deserves But 549 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 2: parretti's meant it's a it's a one FORTY wrc plus 550 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 2: it's fifteen. Homers it's doing a half war like with 551 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 2: the with The bregman, INJURY i think you could make 552 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:29,360 Speaker 2: a case For parrettes to get THE nod over, him 553 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,680 Speaker 2: as crazy as that, sounds just because, like, hey he's 554 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:33,639 Speaker 2: out there doing it and and there's a chance that 555 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 2: depending On bregman's return, TIME i, mean you might have 556 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,359 Speaker 2: an extra twenty games From Estock. Perettis SO i think 557 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:43,959 Speaker 2: that is an interesting part of. It but If bregman 558 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 2: comes back and keeps doing what he was. DOING i 559 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 2: think you can make the case for him, to you, 560 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,359 Speaker 2: know get that other, spot that backup. Spot but for, 561 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 2: NOW i think if if you have like a twenty 562 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 2: game difference and total games, played you might have to 563 00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 2: lean Towards Esch, PERETTIS i would. 564 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:03,119 Speaker 3: Hope so when is it too early to truly victory 565 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 3: Lap on East Ipe paratus it's now? 566 00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:08,160 Speaker 2: Right, well, well people are going to, say, well, yeah 567 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:09,920 Speaker 2: he got put back in a spot where he can swing, 568 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 2: it and. 569 00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:13,400 Speaker 3: Yeah guess, what he doesn't control the team that he's employed. By. 570 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah but people are gonna, say, well we were. 571 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 2: Right he didn't play well In. 572 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 3: Chicago that was a hell of a forty, games, man 573 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:25,119 Speaker 3: or fifty, games whatever it. Was, Yeah Junior CAMENARO i 574 00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 3: thought was going to catapult his way into this, conversation 575 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:29,919 Speaker 3: but that kind of died off pretty. Quickly hell of. 576 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 3: It two weeks, Though this is gonna be The caminaro 577 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:34,360 Speaker 3: experience where two weeks he's the best hitter in, baseball 578 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:36,600 Speaker 3: two weeks he's making you go gray and pull your hair, 579 00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 3: out and then two weeks after that he's gonna be 580 00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 3: the best hitter in baseball. 581 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:41,960 Speaker 2: Again, yeah he's going to be like that for a, 582 00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 2: WHILE i, Think and it's just because it's there's so 583 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 2: many moving parts of the. Swing he's so powerful, though 584 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 2: AND i think that's why you're going to see him 585 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 2: have those hot. Streaks but, yeah you're ALSO i, think 586 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 2: going to see some of those those valleys as. Well 587 00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 2: but in his last twenty three, games he's gonna know 588 00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 2: ps over one thousand and nine, homers so he couldn't 589 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 2: mash his. Way but it's more of The. GENO i 590 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 2: think he's more of The Geno suarez experience at this 591 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:08,080 Speaker 2: point than he, is you, know the more well Rounded. 592 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 2: SUGRIN i think we'll get. There remember he's twenty, one 593 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 2: but at this point he is kind of At Gino 594 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 2: suarez experience two ninety eight on base, percentage but he's 595 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:18,719 Speaker 2: got the seventeen. Bombs it's just he's just not quite there. 596 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 2: YET i WOULD i would make a case for LIKE. 597 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 2: Mikel garcia honestly right now with the defense and everything 598 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:26,600 Speaker 2: that he's doing in the stolen. Bases but that, SAID 599 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 2: i think you're Seeing comonero getting closer and closer to 600 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:31,400 Speaker 2: where a couple of years from now will probably be 601 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:35,240 Speaker 2: that guy that's. Challenging maybe A Jose ramirez or something 602 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 2: like that for the third base. 603 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 3: Spot, yeah last position on the infield in The American, 604 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:41,960 Speaker 3: league it's. Shortstop Jacob wilson is the leading vote. Getter 605 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:45,120 Speaker 3: he's about fifty thousand votes clear Of Bobby Witt. Junior 606 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 3: as it stands right, Now Jeremy pania is, Third Boba schett, 607 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 3: Fourth Anthony volpi, Fifth Zach netto in the sixth. Spot 608 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 3: AND i keep looking, DOWN i See Gunner henderson For 609 00:29:55,400 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 3: baltimore at. Seventh that's, crazy, man right, Though this, year, dude. 610 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 2: They got it. 611 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 3: Right this year is the true separator Between gunner And Bobby. 612 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:11,640 Speaker 2: Wit, yeah, YEAH i think. SO i, mean Because bobby 613 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:13,959 Speaker 2: it's not just the offensive side of. Things you could, say, oh, 614 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 2: Well gunner's a little bit. Cold he started the year. 615 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:20,880 Speaker 2: Hurt if they're even comparable, offensively and they pretty much, 616 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 2: Are they're they're both at like a one to TWENTY. 617 00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:26,840 Speaker 2: Wrc plus the defense is just so much better From Bobby, 618 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 2: witt and and the speed that how much it impacts the, 619 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 2: game it's just so much more significant. THAT i, mean 620 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:37,600 Speaker 2: both have, been to their standards disappointing this, year, right 621 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 2: and but you see the difference of what speed and 622 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 2: defense can do from a war, perspective they're both a 623 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 2: little bit below what you want to see from them 624 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 2: in THE wrc plus department at one twenty and that 625 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:51,720 Speaker 2: is a three to six war in seventy three games 626 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 2: For Bobby witt versus a one to seven war For 627 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 2: Gunner henderson in sixty five. Games SO i, AGREE i 628 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 2: think this shows you the margin for error for A 629 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 2: bobby what junior offensively is just so much. Wider but 630 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 2: so this is where it gets interesting for. ME i 631 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 2: THINK i don't, WANT i never Want All star voting 632 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 2: to just turn into a war, competition because that's, silly. 633 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 2: Right But Jeremy paania And Jacob wilson is really fascinating Because, 634 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 2: PAYNIA i think you're getting a little bit more defensive. 635 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,959 Speaker 2: Value you're definitely getting some more value with the, legs 636 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:27,880 Speaker 2: and he's playing out of his mind this.

Vote. 659 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, well AND i think you've touched on the most 660 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:35,280 Speaker 2: important point here is like somebody that's doing something that 661 00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 2: nobody else at the position is, doing and really nobody 662 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 2: else in baseball for the most part is doing hitting 663 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:42,160 Speaker 2: over the three point fifty and AND i think doing 664 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 2: that while not being a, player that doesn't add value beyond, that, 665 00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 2: Right like it's not just being all hit, tool, right 666 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 2: the fact that he's playing a good shortstop every single 667 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 2: day and sneaking out eight. Homers he's also not a slap. 668 00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:00,240 Speaker 2: Hitter he's slugging five. Hundred SO i. DO i do 669 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 2: Think Jacob wilson should be the leading boat getter. Here 670 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 2: and you, know we'll, see of course slide edge For 671 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 2: Bobby white because of. War but that's Where i'm kind 672 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 2: of putting that in the rear view because you've got 673 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 2: a sixty point difference IN, obp you've got an eighty 674 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 2: point difference in batting, average And Jacob wilson's out Slugging 675 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,160 Speaker 2: Bobby Wit. Junior because he's hitting the ball so. CONSISTENTLY 676 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 2: i think it's got to Be Jacob. WILSON i love 677 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:26,760 Speaker 2: that the fans are all over this. Shit. Man it's. 678 00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:30,560 Speaker 3: Great, Yeah AND i think honestly like it's it's a 679 00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:33,400 Speaker 3: little antiquated to look, at but at the end of the, 680 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 3: Day Jacob wilson's hitting over three. Fifty to your, POINT. 681 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 2: I don't think that's. Antiquated when it's when you're doing, THAT. 682 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 3: I think fans will latch onto. That and that's why 683 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:42,920 Speaker 3: they latched onto it last year With Steven, kuan Like, 684 00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 3: kwan another guy that provided value beyond never swinging and 685 00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:48,479 Speaker 3: missing and, oh by the, way he never swung and 686 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:50,960 Speaker 3: swung and, missed and you, know all of a sudden 687 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 3: he was An All, star you know WHAT i? 688 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:54,760 Speaker 2: Mean, Yep SO i agree that's. 689 00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:57,160 Speaker 3: Interesting all, Right let's go to the outfield and the 690 00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 3: D h spot in The American. League right, now the 691 00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 3: outfit in The American, league, Obviously Aaron judge is leading 692 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:04,440 Speaker 3: the way by a country. Mile he is the leading 693 00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:08,920 Speaker 3: vote getter with one point five seven million. Votes next 694 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,359 Speaker 3: Is Riley green to The tigers at six hundred and 695 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,919 Speaker 3: seventy five, thousand so he's nearly tripling up the next 696 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:18,080 Speaker 3: highest vote getter in The American league. Outfield but It's Aaron, 697 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:20,839 Speaker 3: Judge Riley, Green Mike trout that are the top three 698 00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:23,360 Speaker 3: vote getters right. Now trout's obviously just going to be 699 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:28,120 Speaker 3: there because He's. Trout Stephen kwant is, Four Javier baiaz is, 700 00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 3: Five Cody bellinger is. Six after, that you've Got Kerry, 701 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:37,920 Speaker 3: Carpenter George, Springer Jay, Rodd Jaren, Duran Trent, Grisham Dalton, 702 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:43,920 Speaker 3: Varshow Byron buxton a little buston arasure by having him 703 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 3: in the thirteenth spot that needs to correct. Itself Javier 704 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:52,640 Speaker 3: bias unfortunately needs to be. Outside but, Yeah buxton needs 705 00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:53,080 Speaker 3: to be An All. 706 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 2: Star that's exactly WHERE i was gonna. Go this guy's 707 00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 2: playing every day AND i had doubts that he'd be 708 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:00,759 Speaker 2: able to continue to do. It knock on times a. 709 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:03,560 Speaker 2: MILLION i want to make sure THAT i Don't. Jenkson 710 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:06,560 Speaker 2: he's been An All star once because of not because of, 711 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:09,279 Speaker 2: ability because of just the. Injuries, Right he's never really 712 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:12,839 Speaker 2: had an opportunity to endear himself to The All star. 713 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:14,480 Speaker 2: Voters he was An All star in twenty twenty, two 714 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,600 Speaker 2: played ninety two games a year and we had twenty 715 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:19,879 Speaker 2: eight home. Runs but He's this has been the most 716 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:23,439 Speaker 2: complete VERSION i think Of Byron buckson that we've seen 717 00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 2: since what maybe twenty twenty, One but then, again he 718 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:30,239 Speaker 2: only played sixty one. Games absurd by the, way in 719 00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:34,319 Speaker 2: twenty twenty one he had five b war in sixty one. 720 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:38,959 Speaker 2: Games holy. Shit but this is him playing every day. 721 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:42,600 Speaker 2: Defending it's he's not funneling through the. Dah he's playing center. 722 00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:44,880 Speaker 2: Field i'm just so happy for. Him it's got to 723 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:46,279 Speaker 2: feel great just that he can go out on the 724 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 2: field and play every day and not feel like he's 725 00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:53,239 Speaker 2: micro managing every single thing he. Does but he's got to. 726 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:54,879 Speaker 2: Be he's got to be out. There he's on pace 727 00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 2: for nearly thirty. Thirty he's defending, well and he's hitting 728 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 2: for some maths bridge. Too he's not hitting two twenty 729 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 2: four like he did and when he was actually An 730 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:06,440 Speaker 2: All star in twenty twenty, two two seventy. Three AND 731 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,719 Speaker 2: i think that's the most encouraging. Parts SO i want 732 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:12,359 Speaker 2: to See buxton with Another All, star you, know on 733 00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:15,200 Speaker 2: his resume there and AND i hope fans get that one. 734 00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:18,520 Speaker 2: Right who did you say was was? Second and? Third? Again? 735 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:22,200 Speaker 3: Uh second and third Is Riley green and then third 736 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:22,880 Speaker 3: Is Mike. Trout. 737 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 2: TROUT i Get Riley green's playing, well but he's also 738 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:29,080 Speaker 2: striking out thirty one percent of the. Time i'm not 739 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:31,280 Speaker 2: trying to take anything away from him from a production 740 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:34,040 Speaker 2: and value standpoint like. That it's fine if you're if 741 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 2: you got a one thirty six OF rc, plus it's gonna. 742 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:41,919 Speaker 2: Play but When i'm splitting hairs For All, STAR i don't. 743 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 2: KNOW I i. Gravitate Maybe All star voting makes me 744 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:48,120 Speaker 2: an old. HEAD i GUESS i gravitate more towards The 745 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:51,080 Speaker 2: Stephen kwans of the, world where he's gonna defend a 746 00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:53,960 Speaker 2: little bit. Better he's hitting three, hundred he's getting on 747 00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:59,480 Speaker 2: base at thirty point higher. CLIP i gravitate towards that 748 00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 2: a little bit more for the third. Spot but people 749 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:04,480 Speaker 2: might look At warre and, say what About Julio. Rodriguez, 750 00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:08,359 Speaker 2: NO i.

YEAH i mean what's fascinating, too is the defense 896 00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:14,799 Speaker 2: has gotten so much. Better you remember that the question 897 00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:17,320 Speaker 2: had always been like it when he was a, prospect 898 00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 2: what's it going to be like behind the? Dish they 899 00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:21,960 Speaker 2: even were playing him in the. Outfield, yeah the last 900 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:26,160 Speaker 2: couple of years they were not catching him at. All some, 901 00:44:26,239 --> 00:44:30,400 Speaker 2: circumstances of, course like you Expected Drew romo to potentially 902 00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:32,000 Speaker 2: be that guy for you behind the, dish he. Wasn't 903 00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:35,200 Speaker 2: Jacob stallings was magically good last. Year so there were 904 00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:37,080 Speaker 2: some other aspects of, it but a big part of 905 00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:38,799 Speaker 2: it WAS i don't think they Thought goodman would get 906 00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:41,160 Speaker 2: it to a point where he's a solid defender AND 907 00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:43,200 Speaker 2: i don't think he's ever going to be an asset back, 908 00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:45,600 Speaker 2: there but he's not a liability by any. Means and 909 00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:48,319 Speaker 2: if you're hitting thirty home, runs which he's on pace, 910 00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:50,520 Speaker 2: for you'll take that every day of the. Week and 911 00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:53,120 Speaker 2: that's a huge building block for The rockies, there and 912 00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:55,440 Speaker 2: it's been a little while since they've had a reliable. 913 00:44:55,719 --> 00:45:00,520 Speaker 2: Backstop but what's interesting IS i Think Ivon, Herrera i'm 914 00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:03,480 Speaker 2: calling On cardinals fans. Man they didn't show up attendance 915 00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:06,359 Speaker 2: wise early in the year because it was a year 916 00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:08,239 Speaker 2: THAT i think most people expected to be kind of 917 00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:11,080 Speaker 2: a Puntier AND i get, that AND i get that 918 00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:15,440 Speaker 2: it's also cold. There but just for the best fans in, 919 00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:18,640 Speaker 2: baseball you'd expect them to show up a little bit. 920 00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:21,799 Speaker 2: More they're thirteenth in attendance this. Year, yeah and this 921 00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:25,040 Speaker 2: team's playing. WELL i get the optics weren't the best 922 00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:27,640 Speaker 2: going into the.

Got so 982 00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:16,759 Speaker 2: those two have been, awesome and you almost wish that 983 00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:19,959 Speaker 2: they could both share first base to the starting role because 984 00:48:19,960 --> 00:48:20,400 Speaker 2: they've been so. 985 00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:23,879 Speaker 3: Fantastic, yeah let's jump to second base. Here K Tell 986 00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:26,040 Speaker 3: marte the leading vote getter at eight hundred and fifty. 987 00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:28,759 Speaker 3: Thousand Tommy edmund is second at five hundred and ten, 988 00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:33,279 Speaker 3: Thousand Nico horner And Brendan donovan neck and. Neck cheff 989 00:48:33,360 --> 00:48:36,040 Speaker 3: McNeil is also a top five vote getter right, now 990 00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:39,600 Speaker 3: With scott coming in at sixth and second. Base But 991 00:48:39,960 --> 00:48:42,799 Speaker 3: marte And edmund the two guys in position to Be All, 992 00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:46,800 Speaker 3: Stars horner And donovan on the outside looking, In horner 993 00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:49,240 Speaker 3: And donovan should both be getting more votes Than Tommy, 994 00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:50,399 Speaker 3: edmund AND i Love Tommy. 995 00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:52,719 Speaker 2: Edman this might be an even more fair time to 996 00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:58,560 Speaker 2: call On cardinals fans Like Brandon donovan is absolutely racking 997 00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:01,200 Speaker 2: up the war but he's also hitting three twenty, three 998 00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:04,000 Speaker 2: three eighty, eight four point fifty. ONE i, mean, like 999 00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:07,040 Speaker 2: this guy's doing everything and he's moving all over the, 1000 00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:10,040 Speaker 2: diamond WHICH i do put value. To he's got to 1001 00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:11,560 Speaker 2: be a sign in a specific. Position we don't have 1002 00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:14,120 Speaker 2: a utility, spot but the fact that he's a second, 1003 00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:16,400 Speaker 2: baseman a position that you, KNOW i think we just 1004 00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:19,120 Speaker 2: talked about how lighted is on The american, Side American league, 1005 00:49:19,120 --> 00:49:21,359 Speaker 2: side and he's playing all over the diamond and giving 1006 00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:23,920 Speaker 2: you value all over the diamond is absolutely, Huge AND 1007 00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:26,440 Speaker 2: i think you could make a push for For Kateel 1008 00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:29,040 Speaker 2: marte as, well because it's got a one sixty W rc. 1009 00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:31,440 Speaker 2: Plus but he's played TWENTY LUs, games SO i think 1010 00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:35,080 Speaker 2: availability does matter to a. DEGREE i look at What horner's, 1011 00:49:35,080 --> 00:49:39,320 Speaker 2: DOING i just Think Brandon donovan's doing all of, that but. Better. 1012 00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:42,319 Speaker 2: BETTER i, mean maybe he's not as elite of a, 1013 00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:45,600 Speaker 2: defender but it's still plenty of value. There my vote 1014 00:49:45,600 --> 00:49:48,520 Speaker 2: would Go donovan and then Kateell marte and Again. Cardinals 1015 00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:51,880 Speaker 2: best fans in sports or best fans in, baseball act like. 1016 00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:55,960 Speaker 3: It show, up, man just show up third base right. 1017 00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:59,239 Speaker 3: Now cardinal fans not showing up For arnato are not 1018 00:49:59,239 --> 00:50:01,400 Speaker 3: always been better than it was last. Year But arnatto 1019 00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:04,560 Speaker 3: is ninth right. Now Manny machado the leading vote getting 1020 00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:07,560 Speaker 3: at nine hundred and fifty five. Thousand Max munsey is 1021 00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:11,560 Speaker 3: second at four hundred and fifteen. Thousand Gino suarez is. 1022 00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:14,800 Speaker 3: Third you flip Flop suarez And munsi And i'm a happy. 1023 00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:17,680 Speaker 2: Camper yeah, YEAH i, mean he's just just a better 1024 00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:18,200 Speaker 2: version of. 1025 00:50:18,360 --> 00:50:20,239 Speaker 3: Of what you're getting from way. 1026 00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:23,279 Speaker 2: BETTER i Understand munsy's more three true outcome, ish but 1027 00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:25,799 Speaker 2: he's got more than double the homers this. ONE i 1028 00:50:25,840 --> 00:50:29,359 Speaker 2: Respect cardinals fans for being. OBJECTIVE i Love aeronatto it's 1029 00:50:29,360 --> 00:50:31,520 Speaker 2: better this, year but not Guy. Man it's just he's 1030 00:50:31,560 --> 00:50:33,759 Speaker 2: just not in the in the same realm as these other. 1031 00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:38,239 Speaker 2: Guys machado is Just i'm really buying Into he's been 1032 00:50:38,320 --> 00:50:40,280 Speaker 2: hurt the last couple of years and now he's finally 1033 00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:44,120 Speaker 2: healthy and the fact that he's hitting three sixteen as, 1034 00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:47,480 Speaker 2: well you know he's gonna. Slug he's defending better as. 1035 00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:50,319 Speaker 2: WELL i Think chapman would have a strong case if 1036 00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:51,839 Speaker 2: he didn't get, hurt and we'll see how he comes 1037 00:50:51,880 --> 00:50:54,560 Speaker 2: back from the, injury AND i mean he could definitely 1038 00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:56,920 Speaker 2: make a. PUSH i think these tools separate themselves with 1039 00:50:57,000 --> 00:50:59,360 Speaker 2: the way they play over the next. Month BUT i 1040 00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:01,520 Speaker 2: think what Maure otto's doing right now on that team 1041 00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:03,520 Speaker 2: and kind of the revolving door some of the injuries you, 1042 00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:09,279 Speaker 2: Had merrill hurt, back, unfortunately hurt, Again tatis outrageously good 1043 00:51:09,360 --> 00:51:11,080 Speaker 2: and then he's kind of hit a. Wall now he's 1044 00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:12,520 Speaker 2: coming alive, again but he had hit a wall for 1045 00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:15,080 Speaker 2: a little. Bit machado's been that key cog for them 1046 00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:17,520 Speaker 2: and been a mainstay for. THEM i will say you 1047 00:51:17,520 --> 00:51:19,600 Speaker 2: can make a similar argument though For Matt, chapman who 1048 00:51:19,800 --> 00:51:22,640 Speaker 2: right next to him is their big. Money shortstop is 1049 00:51:22,640 --> 00:51:26,560 Speaker 2: not ton, shit And chapman's been that main force in 1050 00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:29,239 Speaker 2: that offense, Too so you can make a case for 1051 00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:31,759 Speaker 2: both those, guys AND i think they should comfortably be 1052 00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:32,120 Speaker 2: one and. 1053 00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:34,960 Speaker 3: Two chapman because of the, injury is all the way 1054 00:51:35,000 --> 00:51:38,040 Speaker 3: down at. Eighth BUT i, mean it's, funny like how 1055 00:51:38,120 --> 00:51:40,360 Speaker 3: voting just falls off a, cliff or just how it 1056 00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:42,960 Speaker 3: flat out talent it falls off a. Cliff right, Now 1057 00:51:43,239 --> 00:51:47,279 Speaker 3: Machado Muncy suarez is, one two, Three Matt shaw is, 1058 00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:51,239 Speaker 3: Fourth Alec boem is. Fifth like it's just crazy to, me. 1059 00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:56,280 Speaker 3: Boy oh, well a couple more positions Here Shortstop Francisco 1060 00:51:56,360 --> 00:52:00,279 Speaker 3: lindor the only guy over a million votes right now At, 1061 00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:04,040 Speaker 3: Shortstop Mookie betts is just under six hundred. Thousand then 1062 00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:06,040 Speaker 3: you go To Trey turner at three hundred and fifty, 1063 00:52:06,080 --> 00:52:09,040 Speaker 3: thousand he's, Third elie de La cruz, Fourth Dames By swanson, 1064 00:52:09,120 --> 00:52:13,880 Speaker 3: Fifth Heraldo perdomo fewer than one hundred thousand. Votes for, 1065 00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:18,240 Speaker 3: reference that's fewer votes Than arenado. Has it's fewer votes 1066 00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:23,919 Speaker 3: Than Jake croninworth. Has Heraldo, perdomo but this is stacked right. 1067 00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:26,560 Speaker 3: Now i'm not pro in The National league moving a 1068 00:52:26,600 --> 00:52:30,319 Speaker 3: shortstop over to second. Base But, Lindor, Mooki, turner And 1069 00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:32,920 Speaker 3: ellie are all deserving Of All star knots right. 1070 00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:36,120 Speaker 2: Now turner might be more of the more UNDERRATED i 1071 00:52:36,200 --> 00:52:38,000 Speaker 2: might be having one of the more underrated seasons right, 1072 00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:40,600 Speaker 2: now because everyone loves to shoot on the, defense And 1073 00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:43,399 Speaker 2: i'm Sure i've been guilty of, it and he'luck he's. 1074 00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:46,480 Speaker 2: NOT i don't think He's Ozzie smith out, there but 1075 00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:51,120 Speaker 2: he's definitely made himself not a liability this. YEAR i, 1076 00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:53,480 Speaker 2: mean if you look at what he's doing, defensively it's 1077 00:52:53,560 --> 00:52:56,279 Speaker 2: negative four defensive run, saved but it's three outs above. 1078 00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:58,760 Speaker 2: AVERAGE i don't think he's had a positive outs above 1079 00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:03,200 Speaker 2: average since twenty. Nineteen. Wow so the fact that he's 1080 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:05,600 Speaker 2: gotten himself to a point where it was negative four 1081 00:53:05,719 --> 00:53:08,319 Speaker 2: defensive run save or negative fourteen defensive run saved last 1082 00:53:08,400 --> 00:53:11,239 Speaker 2: year negative three out's above. Average so defending a little 1083 00:53:11,239 --> 00:53:14,600 Speaker 2: bit better but absolutely breaking threeh eight three sixty six 1084 00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:18,160 Speaker 2: four sixty six slash. LINE i understand When door is 1085 00:53:18,440 --> 00:53:20,200 Speaker 2: one of the best defenders in the sport at his 1086 00:53:20,280 --> 00:53:22,560 Speaker 2: respective position And lindor is slugging a little bit, more 1087 00:53:23,040 --> 00:53:26,560 Speaker 2: but there's a pretty decent gap in the slash. Line 1088 00:53:26,560 --> 00:53:28,040 Speaker 2: what's funny is then you end up because of the 1089 00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:30,440 Speaker 2: stadiums side of. Things look AT wrc plus and it's 1090 00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:33,160 Speaker 2: only three points in the favor Of. Turner SO i Lean, 1091 00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:36,200 Speaker 2: Lindor BUT i think If turner just keeps, mashing it's 1092 00:53:36,200 --> 00:53:38,279 Speaker 2: hard to ignore the slash line of three oho, eight 1093 00:53:38,320 --> 00:53:41,160 Speaker 2: three sixty, six four sixty six compared to two seventy 1094 00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:45,359 Speaker 2: five three forty, nine four to sixty. Eight but it's 1095 00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:45,640 Speaker 2: a fun. 1096 00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:49,799 Speaker 3: Conversation it is a fun. CONVERSATION i maybe a little 1097 00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:52,160 Speaker 3: bit of bias BECAUSE i do love Watching Trey turner right, 1098 00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:54,400 Speaker 3: Now Like i'm two games into a four game set 1099 00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:57,120 Speaker 3: with Watching turner play, shortstop And i'm obsessed with. It 1100 00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:02,200 Speaker 3: in terms of offensively what he does, defensively it's it's 1101 00:54:02,239 --> 00:54:05,000 Speaker 3: somehow smooth but bad at the same. Time and that's 1102 00:54:05,040 --> 00:54:08,080 Speaker 3: been the case for the last five. Years like it's 1103 00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:12,080 Speaker 3: not it doesn't great out well literally, ever but he looks. 1104 00:54:12,080 --> 00:54:14,800 Speaker 3: Smooth Tray turner is one of the smoothest looking players 1105 00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:17,520 Speaker 3: In Major League, baseball no, Doubt AND i see him 1106 00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:19,080 Speaker 3: like he ripped in one hundred and nine mile an 1107 00:54:19,080 --> 00:54:20,920 Speaker 3: hour homer to dead center on the second pitch of 1108 00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:24,080 Speaker 3: the game On, monday and then went seat hunting down 1109 00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:27,960 Speaker 3: the left field line, yesterday like when he gets into. It, 1110 00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:30,560 Speaker 3: dude it's really fun to Watch. Turner But ellie de 1111 00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:32,400 Speaker 3: La cruz is turning it on now. Too this IS 1112 00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:33,480 Speaker 3: i was gonna, Say. 1113 00:54:33,600 --> 00:54:37,520 Speaker 2: Ellie might with a strong, month just put himself into this. 1114 00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:41,560 Speaker 2: Conversation last thirty games ops over one, thousand and ALL 1115 00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:43,880 Speaker 2: i hear about Is elie De lacruz.

Year if he goes continues to go nuclear 1119 00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:54,799 Speaker 2: for another few, weeks he's gonna eclipse them in. War 1120 00:54:54,880 --> 00:54:57,919 Speaker 2: and then you're gonna look at the counting stats and, say, 1121 00:54:58,120 --> 00:55:00,920 Speaker 2: oh he's got thirty, bags he's got twe and all 1122 00:55:00,960 --> 00:55:02,880 Speaker 2: of a, SUDDEN i think we're talking about la De 1123 00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:05,120 Speaker 2: lacruz is the guy that could be that.

KNOW i don't know what to. 1140 00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:05,239 Speaker 3: DO i Don't and here's the THING i would, say 1141 00:56:05,239 --> 00:56:08,000 Speaker 3: Because akunya missed a whole bunch of, time leave A kunya. 1142 00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:09,640 Speaker 3: Out you can't leave A couna out right. 1143 00:56:09,680 --> 00:56:11,359 Speaker 2: Now he's the best player on the planet right. Now, 1144 00:56:11,480 --> 00:56:14,520 Speaker 2: Yeah so like if he extrapolates this over, what, well 1145 00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:18,920 Speaker 2: it'll probably be about forty. Games the numbers might just 1146 00:56:18,960 --> 00:56:22,919 Speaker 2: be Too. Gaudi like he's eleventh In National league outfield. War, 1147 00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:26,440 Speaker 2: yeah already he's seeing three ninety two with seven homers 1148 00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:30,160 Speaker 2: in twenty two, games and he's defending he made nice 1149 00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:33,520 Speaker 2: play the other. DAY i don't. KNOW i don't, know 1150 00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:35,439 Speaker 2: because we just talked about, like, oh, yeah you got 1151 00:56:35,440 --> 00:56:37,160 Speaker 2: to give the value to the guys that are playing, 1152 00:56:37,200 --> 00:56:40,680 Speaker 2: more but we weren't comparing any of those guys to 1153 00:56:40,680 --> 00:56:42,799 Speaker 2: somebody that's hitting almost four hundred with a home run 1154 00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:47,879 Speaker 2: every third. Game if he keeps this, up he's gonna 1155 00:56:47,880 --> 00:56:51,799 Speaker 2: catapult himself into the. Conversation but, like there can't be 1156 00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:54,640 Speaker 2: a scenario Where Corbyn carroll doesn't doesn't get in because 1157 00:56:55,120 --> 00:56:57,960 Speaker 2: just the fan base is smaller and they don't. Vote to, 1158 00:56:57,960 --> 00:57:02,120 Speaker 2: me he has twenty. Homers, yeah he's ten stolen bases 1159 00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:04,319 Speaker 2: to go with.

Description But 1256 01:01:51,800 --> 01:01:56,080 Speaker 2: i've just been so floored by how good this kid. 1257 01:01:56,160 --> 01:01:59,240 Speaker 2: Is and he's guess kid just turned nineteen years. Old 1258 01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:04,680 Speaker 2: pirates first round pick took up ninth, overall and he 1259 01:02:04,880 --> 01:02:07,160 Speaker 2: was sixteenth in our top one hundred. Update at that, 1260 01:02:07,200 --> 01:02:09,640 Speaker 2: point he was still playing in LOW, a and you, 1261 01:02:09,680 --> 01:02:13,520 Speaker 2: know there was some underlying whiff in the early. Going 1262 01:02:13,520 --> 01:02:16,200 Speaker 2: and remember the only reason why he probably wasn't a 1263 01:02:16,240 --> 01:02:18,440 Speaker 2: top three pick was there was some hit tool. Concern 1264 01:02:18,520 --> 01:02:20,440 Speaker 2: if you go and watch the amateur, video like the 1265 01:02:20,480 --> 01:02:22,520 Speaker 2: swing was, rough AND i highlight that in the. Piece 1266 01:02:23,120 --> 01:02:26,720 Speaker 2: but he before he even made his pro, debut had 1267 01:02:26,760 --> 01:02:33,040 Speaker 2: success or made swing adjustments legitimately before he faced any, 1268 01:02:33,040 --> 01:02:35,360 Speaker 2: adversity WHICH i think says a. Lot so for a 1269 01:02:35,400 --> 01:02:38,840 Speaker 2: first round, pick top ten pick to make those swing 1270 01:02:38,880 --> 01:02:41,720 Speaker 2: adjustments before ever struggling, PROFESSIONALLY i think says a lot 1271 01:02:41,760 --> 01:02:44,640 Speaker 2: about the makeup and for those adjustments to be successful for, 1272 01:02:44,720 --> 01:02:46,840 Speaker 2: HIM i think says a lot as. Well and through 1273 01:02:46,880 --> 01:02:49,240 Speaker 2: his first twenty three, games yes he was, productive but 1274 01:02:49,720 --> 01:02:54,000 Speaker 2: he really did struggle with. Secondaries and then he started 1275 01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:55,960 Speaker 2: to settle in more and more and, more and he 1276 01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:58,440 Speaker 2: started to see those swing adjustments chine through more and 1277 01:02:58,480 --> 01:03:01,120 Speaker 2: more and. More the first twenty three game non fastballs 1278 01:03:01,120 --> 01:03:04,720 Speaker 2: he hit won fifty against with AN ops below five. 1279 01:03:04,800 --> 01:03:08,440 Speaker 2: Hundred since, then which is thirty four, games and that 1280 01:03:08,520 --> 01:03:11,640 Speaker 2: includes seven games at HIGH. A now he is hitting 1281 01:03:11,880 --> 01:03:15,480 Speaker 2: against non fastballs for twenty four to forty eight six. 1282 01:03:15,680 --> 01:03:19,600 Speaker 2: Seventeen the contact rate has jumped from fifty four percent 1283 01:03:19,640 --> 01:03:22,439 Speaker 2: to twenty four percent against non. Fastballs but now let's 1284 01:03:22,480 --> 01:03:23,960 Speaker 2: just talk about how quick this guy has been. 1285 01:03:23,960 --> 01:03:26,880 Speaker 3: Waiting contact rate has jumped from fifty four to twenty 1286 01:03:26,880 --> 01:03:27,600 Speaker 3: four fifty. 1287 01:03:27,680 --> 01:03:30,840 Speaker 2: Sorry by fifty four to seventy, four by twenty, percent thank, 1288 01:03:30,880 --> 01:03:34,840 Speaker 2: you good. Catch the other side of things that's so 1289 01:03:34,960 --> 01:03:38,720 Speaker 2: fascinating is he just continues to get better and better 1290 01:03:38,800 --> 01:03:42,240 Speaker 2: as he racks up more. Reps so thirty three games since, 1291 01:03:42,280 --> 01:03:45,800 Speaker 2: THEN i just read you the numbers against. Secondaries here's 1292 01:03:45,800 --> 01:03:49,120 Speaker 2: the overall numbers four seventeen four to seventy one six 1293 01:03:49,240 --> 01:03:52,160 Speaker 2: twenty six slash. Line it's one, thousand ninety seven. Ops 1294 01:03:52,280 --> 01:03:55,240 Speaker 2: and in that span he has struck out fourteen percent 1295 01:03:55,280 --> 01:03:58,600 Speaker 2: of the. Time so he is slashing the swing and 1296 01:03:58,640 --> 01:04:02,040 Speaker 2: miss significantly because of the ability to. Hit secondary is 1297 01:04:02,080 --> 01:04:04,919 Speaker 2: that contact rate jumping by twenty percent to seventy four, 1298 01:04:04,920 --> 01:04:08,600 Speaker 2: percent but also just the overall contact rate, jumping the 1299 01:04:08,680 --> 01:04:12,640 Speaker 2: swing decisions, improving and by the, way he's playing a great. 1300 01:04:12,680 --> 01:04:16,280 Speaker 2: Shortstop AND i would have, said it's kind of silly 1301 01:04:16,640 --> 01:04:20,440 Speaker 2: to think about the big league situation when you're developing 1302 01:04:20,960 --> 01:04:24,640 Speaker 2: an eighteen slash nineteen year old. PROSPECT i liked him 1303 01:04:24,720 --> 01:04:27,320 Speaker 2: out of the draft as a plus plus center, fielder 1304 01:04:27,480 --> 01:04:29,400 Speaker 2: though he did have the potential to be an above average. 1305 01:04:29,400 --> 01:04:31,320 Speaker 2: Shortstop NOW i see a guy that could be a plus. 1306 01:04:31,320 --> 01:04:34,560 Speaker 2: Shortstop and now with the way that he's, performing you 1307 01:04:34,600 --> 01:04:38,520 Speaker 2: can start, TO i, think really start to believe that 1308 01:04:38,760 --> 01:04:41,880 Speaker 2: he could debut by twenty twenty six at some. Point 1309 01:04:42,280 --> 01:04:44,120 Speaker 2: and if you're thinking about it from that perspective of, like, 1310 01:04:44,160 --> 01:04:46,919 Speaker 2: hey this guy could be the latest to fly through 1311 01:04:46,920 --> 01:04:49,640 Speaker 2: the minor leagues like the latest high school guy that 1312 01:04:50,000 --> 01:04:52,400 Speaker 2: it's just so damn good that you just push him like. 1313 01:04:52,440 --> 01:04:54,360 Speaker 2: Crazy AND i don't want to compare him To bobby 1314 01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:56,160 Speaker 2: with but like that kind of fly through the minor 1315 01:04:56,200 --> 01:04:58,880 Speaker 2: league type of. Situation, yeah that you have to start 1316 01:04:58,880 --> 01:05:00,800 Speaker 2: thinking about that because maybe the only position that is 1317 01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:04,400 Speaker 2: solidified In pittsburgh a center, field, right and so having 1318 01:05:04,400 --> 01:05:06,880 Speaker 2: that solidified, there with O'Neil cruz really developing into a 1319 01:05:06,880 --> 01:05:09,360 Speaker 2: solid defender, THERE i think you've got to look At 1320 01:05:09,720 --> 01:05:11,920 Speaker 2: Connor griffin and, say let's keep giving him the reps at. 1321 01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:14,080 Speaker 2: Shortop he looks great in center, field but he also 1322 01:05:14,080 --> 01:05:15,920 Speaker 2: looks great at. Shortstop and that's been the area that's 1323 01:05:15,960 --> 01:05:17,760 Speaker 2: really floored. Me IS i thought there'd be a big 1324 01:05:17,800 --> 01:05:20,480 Speaker 2: gap where it'd Be, okay he's a gazelle looking like 1325 01:05:20,520 --> 01:05:23,720 Speaker 2: a seventy defender potentially in center and maybe an above average. 1326 01:05:23,720 --> 01:05:26,000 Speaker 2: Shortstop he looks like he'd be a plus shortstop. Too 1327 01:05:26,520 --> 01:05:28,720 Speaker 2: it's becoming almost impossible to poke a hole in this guy's, 1328 01:05:28,720 --> 01:05:31,000 Speaker 2: game and the piece is basically making an argument that 1329 01:05:31,400 --> 01:05:33,880 Speaker 2: he could be the number one overall prospect in baseball before. 1330 01:05:34,320 --> 01:05:36,600 Speaker 3: Long, wow you can print the posters right now With, 1331 01:05:36,680 --> 01:05:39,640 Speaker 3: griffin it's short cruise and center and hammer And Henry 1332 01:05:39,680 --> 01:05:41,720 Speaker 3: davis behind the.
