Speaker 1: Great? It was good that people back in the park

32
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 1: this weekend. It was good that Mets baseball back in

33
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 1: the park. Cool, hear people cheering, just it was nice

34
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 1: to have baseball back, like the normalcy returns once again.

35
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 1: And we had our interesting morning as well. On the

36
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 1: home opener, Yes, got rained out per se on the

37
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 1: day that was beautiful out would I love that? So

38
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 1: we fired agree with it, but we got the next

39
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,400
Speaker 1: day it was a little bit colder and I got

40
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 1: to wear the tuxedo, which yes got to TEXI though

41
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 1: that that that kept me a little bit warmer. The

42
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 1: tuxedo was nice. For those of you who did not

43
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,120
Speaker 1: see the video that went up on the Mets YouTube channel,

44
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,400
Speaker 1: we did the estimate finale at City Field with Matt Rovola.

45
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 1: I lost tile. I wore the tuxedo on opening day.

46
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:44,959
Speaker 1: Maybe Beatle will throw a picture on here or something.

47
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,760
Speaker 1: I'll send him one that he can put into the video.

48
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 1: But I mean, I was looking sharp. But it wasn't

49
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 1: really much of a loss at the end of the day.

50
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:51,880
Speaker 1: The only the part of that was a loss was

51
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 1: that you had to take time out of your week

52
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: to go get a tuxedo fitted and go through the

53
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 1: stress of finding a tuxi that could be turned around

54
00:01:57,920 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 1: only a couple of days, and it was stressful. Shout

55
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: out to port of Ella and Astoria. They hooked me

56
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 1: up with the tuxi the Mushroom. Yeah like the Mushroom.

57
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: I honestly I thought I rented it. They didn't take

58
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 1: any of my information. I have no clue. They didn't

59
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:09,640
Speaker 1: tell me when to return it. I have no idea

60
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: what to do with this tuxedo. I think I might

61
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:12,920
Speaker 1: own one. Now I think I own a tuxedo. You

62
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:16,079
Speaker 1: have any weddings this year? I do, I do. Yeah,

63
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 1: we got Alexes as well. I have Alex's sisters yea,

64
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 1: So maybe maybe to that one.

65
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 2: I don't know.

66
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 1: I don't want to be the best dressed one there,

67
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 1: but the tuxedo was great. We also saw a Mets

68
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 1: fan who might have beat me though, with the suit

69
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 1: that was made of all Mets logos, both of us

70
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: and the podcast too. I think his name is Bromio

71
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 1: Bromeo Santos is going on his Twitter. I don't know

72
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 1: if that's his real name or not, but he's in

73
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:38,079
Speaker 1: a killer killer suit. It was just head to toe

74
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,360
Speaker 1: Mets with the hat and yeah, he was really rocking

75
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 1: twice in one day. So yeah, we found him in

76
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 1: center field where were just hanging out, like eating, mess

77
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 1: around during the game, and then you saw him in

78
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 1: the parking lot leaving as well. Like you guys were

79
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: like kinship of brothers, we cross paths. He's like, I

80
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,679
Speaker 1: need a picture for myself because how many times is

81
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 1: this going to happen? But or the tuxedo ended up

82
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 1: keeping me warm. Looked great. Got to go to the

83
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 1: tailgate as well with the seven line, which is cool.

84
00:02:58,160 --> 00:02:59,640
Speaker 1: And like we said, we have that interview with Darren

85
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 1: coming out at the end of the episode, which is

86
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 1: always great because Darren also has like an interesting perspective

87
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 1: of how things work because coming from the outside in

88
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 1: kind of like we did as well. Yeah, and it's

89
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 1: just been doing it for so long, you guys. To

90
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 1: hear in an interview he talks about having connections with

91
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,080
Speaker 1: Justin Turner. Yeah, like just to tell you think about

92
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 1: how long seven Line has been doing what they've done

93
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:17,920
Speaker 1: and how much they've grown. But they always put on

94
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 1: a great, a great tail gate out there in the marina.

95
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:21,639
Speaker 1: It's always very fun time. They had the big seven

96
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,079
Speaker 1: Line truck out there, which was cool. We did the

97
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 1: interview right in front of that for the people who's

98
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 1: gonna see that on YouTube, and just always a vibe

99
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 1: out there, especially opening day. Like I remember last year

100
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 1: Opening Day it was that like perfect seventy five degree day.

101
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:34,640
Speaker 1: I remember they unveiled the statue. It was a great event,

102
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 1: but it was sunny, sweating, like you don't want that

103
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 1: Opening Day. No, that's not April Baseball. Now, we got

104
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 1: some real clouds. I want wind, I want fifties. I

105
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: mean it was it was cool. My body was warm,

106
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 1: but my hands were freezing. This entire series, my hands

107
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 1: have been so cold. I don't know if like I've

108
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 1: got bad or port circulation or something. Right now. I

109
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 1: think the fingers have been cold. I think it's also

110
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 1: like an underrated element of like April Baseball, how hard

111
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 1: this is to play baseball on cold weather. Yeah, and like

112
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 1: we saw a lot of these games that it gets

113
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 1: a little bit harder to hit and pitch as you're

114
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 1: in the game longer, games go longer. I'll talk about

115
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 1: that. I was saying a little bit, but I think it

116
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 1: was cool being back in the stadium just because of

117
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 1: how many new things there are in City Field this year,

118
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 1: hundred percent. I mean, for you gluten free boys, there

119
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 1: are options out the wazoo for you. For me, dairy

120
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,239
Speaker 1: free not as much, but the gluten free people should

121
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,680
Speaker 1: be rejoicing because there's a lot of really cool stuff. Yeah,

122
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:20,920
Speaker 1: it's going to be the James Shown and gluten free

123
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 1: segment right now. We've like quadrupled the gluten free options

124
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: in City Field. There's like new kinds of burgers and

125
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: a little like healthy section out there in right field.

126
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 1: There's more access to Brita Bowls. That was always like

127
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 1: a sneaky thing, now is just more stands of it,

128
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: which is amazing. They have Caesadia, they have like gluten

129
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,839
Speaker 1: free brownies that were really good, fantastic. There was a

130
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 1: gluten free beer. Yeah, they have a gluten free beer.

131
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 1: I'm very excited to try that. Havn't had beer in

132
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 1: a year. Over a year. They had pigs Beach the

133
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 1: barbecue place. There's a whole gluten free sampler plot. There

134
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,159
Speaker 1: was really good to you had today on Sunday was

135
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,040
Speaker 1: it was a great meal, like really filled me up.

136
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 3: I was.

137
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,159
Speaker 1: I was nervous about how much like like I was like, okay,

138
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:55,919
Speaker 1: there's like you got one shot at this. Yes, if

139
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 1: it doesn't fill me up, I know them to eat

140
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 1: the rest of the day. It filled me up great.

141
00:04:58,279 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 1: Now it was really good. You give me a piece

142
00:04:59,440 --> 00:04:59,799

Speaker 1: Got sausage and peppers two always strong. Gotta get a

158
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 1: Glizzy as well. Always I will say, like at the

159
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 1: World Baseball Classic, I think they were also Nathan's. Their

160
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,919
Speaker 1: hot dogs were absolutely horrible. Something's going on. But like

161
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 1: at City Field, always a premium hot dog, Na and

162
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 1: you you would know better than anybody about the quality

163
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 1: of the hot dogs here. Yeah, yes, sure, keep forgetting

164
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 1: about that. And now it's funny that we've done two

165
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,920
Speaker 1: big punishments for things on the podcast. They happened within

166
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 1: like ten games being played at the City Field. Yeah,

167
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 1: because last one was both against the Marlins and was

168
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 1: I thought that was co Marlin. Yeah that was Oneles.

169
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,280
Speaker 1: He has weird Mark marrit texeiom meet eating the nine

170
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 1: hot Dogs last year, So we got like ten games

171
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 1: to figure out something else. Stup for one of us

172
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 1: to do under. Yeah. We also had the home opening

173
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,840
Speaker 1: day festivities where you get the intros for all the players.

174
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,039
Speaker 1: Edwin Diaz got an intro. They played the trumpets for

175
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:17,720
Speaker 1: him as he came out on his crutches, which was

176
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 1: pretty cool. Crowd was excited. Yeah. Almost, I almost feel

177
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 1: bad that they gave the crowd the trumpet that soon,

178
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 1: because like they're like, who knows the next one comes,

179
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 1: Like it's just it's kind of like, all right, now

180
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:27,360
Speaker 1: he took one, you take it away forever.

181
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 3: Yeah.

182
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 1: No, but it was good to see Edwin out there,

183
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 1: and you know, Verlander was here too. Everybody that was

184
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,080
Speaker 1: you know, on the team was was at the home opener,

185
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,479
Speaker 1: which was nice of course. And the festivities then moved

186
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 1: into a walk parade. Yes, because Edward Cabrera walked every

187
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 1: single player on the Mets this entire game. That's through

188
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 1: twelve walks on Friday's game. Many walks. That's an insane

189
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,279
Speaker 1: and Edward Cabrera had like a no hitter going through

190
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:50,919
Speaker 1: what like the first three, but he was put he

191
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:52,719
Speaker 1: pulled the Jack Flair it was like four yeah, and

192
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:54,720
Speaker 1: walked like eight guys in those first three or four,

193
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 1: whatever it came. It meant how the run before they

194
00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 1: had a hit? Yeah, No, they did, they did. Yes,

195
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 1: And this is also the day after the Chattanooga Lookouts

196
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 1: shorts seven runs without a hitting a minor league game

197
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 1: on Saturday night. But I digress brand Nemo drew four

198
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 1: of those walks. He was the first Met draw four

199
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 1: walks in the game since J. D. Davis twenty twenty,

200
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 1: and before that, it was Mike Baxter in twenty twelve,

201
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 1: when I think they said he was the twelfth player

202
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 1: to ever do that in Mets history as well, at

203
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 1: least how he said that on the radio. I heard

204
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 1: that in the bathroom while I was waiting. Yeah, and

205
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 1: three of Nimo's walks led off innings. The Mets leov

206
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 1: guy reached base in six of eight innings on Friday.

207
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 3: No.

208
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 1: I mean, like, that's what you love about Brandon Neimo

209
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,040
Speaker 1: is his ability to get on base. Plays good center field,

210
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 1: Like all we know all the stuff they does, but

211
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 1: he really is like absolutely elite at getting on base,

212
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 1: and that's something that the way that this lineup is built,

213
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 1: I don't want to say like very top heavy, but

214
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: like Lindora and Alonso are supposed to be the guys

215
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 1: who were driving in Nimo and Marte getting on base.

216
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 1: That's exactly what you want to say. Yeah, and I

217
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,119
Speaker 1: think just a pushback for a second. The big story

218
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 1: of this game was the fact that Tyler McGill looked

219
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 1: very good again percent Yeah nowhere in runs, six innings, pitch,

220
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 1: two walks in three strikeouts. Did missed a ton of bats,

221
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: but again it was not great pitching conditions. It was

222
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 1: very cold and it was very windy, and this Marlins

223
00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 1: lamp doesn't swing and miss very often. The all kind

224
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 1: of the whole premise they bul this team upon. His

225
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 1: fastball had great life through them with sixty percent at

226
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 1: the time, got up to ninety six and a half,

227
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 1: which is almost near where he sat when he was

228
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 1: at his best last few years. And that was on

229
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:10,679
Speaker 1: a very cold day, which is a really good sign.

230
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 1: Got five whiffs on that pitch, only pitch that had

231
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 1: multiple whiffs. But like he did something this game doesn't

232
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 1: do very often his career, and I was get a

233
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 1: ton of ground balls. Yeah, that was something we noticed

234
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 1: a lot while we were at the game and did

235
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 1: some more looking into it yesterday. Nine of the seventeen

236
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 1: balls in play by the Marlins were on the ground

237
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 1: in this game, which is a big change for usually

238
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 1: he sat around forty percent his entire career. So if

239
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 1: he's a guy who, again small sample sized, only seventeen

240
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 1: balls and play, this is the statt that usually stabilized

241
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: until he gets to like eighty bated balls. But this

242
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:39,719
Speaker 1: is something that's important. Six of those ground balls came

243
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 1: on fastballs, three of them came on sliders. This could

244
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 1: be a coincidence or this could be a step forward

245
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: Tyler McGill something new he's doing in attacking Heathers. I

246
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 1: know this offseason you've been talking to me a lot

247
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 1: about not just k rate, not just ground ball rate,

248
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 1: but combining the two and figuring out the guys who

249
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 1: can do those two things extremely well. Got like Juwan

250
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:58,320
Speaker 1: Dran out of the bullpen is one of the names

251
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 1: that comes to my mind immediately, but especially with the

252
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:02,680
Speaker 1: way that the balls have been playing this year, because

253
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:04,719
Speaker 1: it's been very bouncy, almost are they back to the

254
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen levels? Team, We're basically at that level when

255
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 1: you adjust them for weather. Okay, so getting close at

256
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: least to those twenty nineteen levels. We know about that baseball.

257
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 1: I mean, the ball was flying everywhere. You could saw

258
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 1: one off your hands and would go out three hundred

259
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 1: and fifty feet the right field. But to be able

260
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,080
Speaker 1: to get ground balls like that for Tyler and McGill

261
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,880
Speaker 1: and just it gets you quick outs too, which is important,

262
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:24,959
Speaker 1: like gets you going deeper in games, helps the bullpen out,

263
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,720
Speaker 1: helps everybody out, super super big for a guy who

264
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 1: technically wasn't starting this team opening day. Yeah, and again

265
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 1: it's not like Grandpall is not even perfect anymore. It's

266
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,280
Speaker 1: probably less advantageous than it was last year with a

267
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 1: shifty But I have the stats on the home run

268
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,320
Speaker 1: ball this year, per Derek Carthy, who's the creator of

269
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,959
Speaker 1: the bat and the bad Ex projection systems. He's freaky.

270
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,240
Speaker 1: Follow him on to weather He's a genius guy. Also

271
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:48,200
Speaker 1: a good log of betting tips. Home runs per contact

272
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 1: rate weather adjusted twenty eighteen four point four percent, twenty

273
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 1: nineteen five point four percent, twenty twenty five point two,

274
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,440
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one four point nine, twenty twenty two four

275
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 1: point two, and already twenty twenty three when weather adjusted

276
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 1: five went three percent. So basically right back, basically, it

277
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 1: seems like this ball is super happy and fun again.

278
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 1: And we did see a home run here from Starling Marte,

279
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:06,960
Speaker 1: which is nice.

280
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 4: I was.

281
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 1: I was a big fan of that home run as well.

282
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,200
Speaker 1: For a couple of reasons. Marte always just I feel like,

283
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 1: swings the bat well at city Field. Yeah, always swings

284
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 1: to bat well city Field. And then the game kind

285
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,440
Speaker 1: of crescendoed as we were winning, and it felt comfortable anyway,

286
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 1: with back to back home runs from Francisco Lindor and

287
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 1: pe Alonzo that were culminated in some pyrotechnics, and that

288
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 1: was kind of the first of its kind. We really

289
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 1: seen a city field and that capacity. And I want

290
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 1: to want to throw it to John over here. Because

291
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,199
Speaker 1: John is a big pyrotechnic guy. He's a pyro. You

292
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,839
Speaker 1: could say, yeah, John, actually really.

293
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:36,959
Speaker 5: I'm actually like, I mean, I'm gonna I'm gonna sound

294
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 5: like a square here. But no, I would when I

295
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 5: would go to Disney World or like Orlando Studios and

296
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:43,720
Speaker 5: there'd be a lot of fire on rides.

297
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 2: The Mummies one that comes to mind.

298
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's good ride.

299
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 5: I was patrified, hated it was. I'm not a big

300
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 5: fire guy at Also, I guess it's kind of ironic

301
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:56,080
Speaker 5: that I'm the one that's spearheading this, uh this venture.

302
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,440
Speaker 5: But now I thought it looked great, especially by the Apple. Yeah,

303
00:10:58,600 --> 00:10:59,720
Speaker 5: all the home runs.

304
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 1: And just on top of the scoreboard itself. The scoreboards

305
00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 1: been such a spectacle. Yeah, I mean we didn't even

306
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 1: talk about that. We didn't talk about Liverpool. We had

307
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 1: technically seen it here. But the scoreboard is is awesome.

308
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 1: It's crazy, It's huge. It like this. This sounds weird

309
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 1: to say, but like it really is so much more

310
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:16,599
Speaker 1: clear than the one that they had before. Like it

311
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 1: looks like HD picture, which is crazy because they didn't

312
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 1: have a problem with the old scoreboard either. We have

313
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 1: a friend down Long Island City who can see the

314
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:27,160
Speaker 1: scoreboard from his house. Yeah four in Long Island City,

315
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,679
Speaker 1: and at night you can see the scoreboard lit up

316
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 1: like bright and clear. I mean miles, you guys think

317
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 1: that is like seven six miles. That's five miles, five

318
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 1: six miles, five miles from via five miles. I'll trust

319
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:38,959
Speaker 1: Veto's the New York guy. He's the New York But yeah,

320
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:40,640
Speaker 1: I mean the scoreboard looks awesome. All the new graphics

321
00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:42,839
Speaker 1: and stuff looked really good. I know, some people were

322
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 1: not happy about like the balls and strikes, but that

323
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:47,440
Speaker 1: got changed really quickly. I mean it's really cool. And

324
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:50,840
Speaker 1: all the new LED screens around the field, yes so too.

325
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 1: We all did notice that. Yeah, just all bright, clear,

326
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 1: big everywhere. Just everyone should come to the stadium as

327
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 1: soon as they can, just because Mets fans you want

328
00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:00,319
Speaker 1: to be in the ballpark. But there are there was

329
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 1: a real genuine enhancements made to stay in the one hundred.

330
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 1: It's incredibly noticeable. And you also have the new bar

331
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,920
Speaker 1: out where McFaddens used to be, the K Corner, yes,

332
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:10,839
Speaker 1: which is now open. I mean it's it's literally the

333
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:12,719
Speaker 1: same exact spot where McFaddens used to be for those

334
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:14,880
Speaker 1: of you who used to go there. K Corner. They

335
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 1: got beer, they got liquor, they got it all. Yeah,

336
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 1: like even got snacks in there, like they had pretzels

337
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:20,599
Speaker 1: and pizza bagels, which is kind of cool. And the

338
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:26,280
Speaker 1: new Eoli bar and in uh in left field. Okay,

339
00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 1: you just got a little got a little twang on

340
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:30,679
Speaker 1: that one little twang. Yeah, I mean it's yeahs this

341
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 1: is my favorite killer Marlins also threw like five relief

342
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 1: pitchers and we saw Wascar Brazo Bon for like the

343
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:39,800
Speaker 1: what he I think He's now pitched in four of

344
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 1: the seven games the Mets have played against the Marlins,

345
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 1: which is seems low. I would say five. It seems

346
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 1: like far too many games for what we That was

347
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,280
Speaker 1: the guy we joked about in our season previa, like

348
00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:50,959
Speaker 1: Wastcar Brazo Bon is gonna be coming into these games

349
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,200
Speaker 1: pitching like he really has thrown a lot. It also

350
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 1: seems like Skip Schumacher, Uh just has like four guys

351
00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 1: that he uses, and it's like Wascar Brazobon, JT Chargua,

352
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 1: Andrew Nardi is one of them, Matt Barnes and I

353
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:05,559
Speaker 1: guess also Dylan Floro and Tanner Scott. We've seen Tennis Scott.

354
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 1: I think this was like the at least in this series.

355
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,240
Speaker 1: The only time he came in was Game three. Yeah,

356
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 1: how many of those guys will be here in September

357
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,240
Speaker 1: the next time we play them in September? September eighteenth,

358
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,440
Speaker 1: September eighteenth, the next time we played the Marlins middle

359
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:18,319
Speaker 1: of September. I mean, how many guys on this roster

360
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,960
Speaker 1: will actually be still on that team? Wait here? This

361
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 1: could be like an estimate that has like five points

362
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 1: down the line. What what what's higher number by September eighteenth?

363
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 1: How many touchdown passes by Aaron Rodgers or how many

364
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 1: Marlins are on this roster that we're on the roster

365
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,520
Speaker 1: right now? How many weeks into the season of September eighteenth.

366
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:36,319
Speaker 1: I believe that's two full games, two full games, it's

367
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 1: not three, depending on what day of the week September eighteenth,

368
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:41,120
Speaker 1: They've got to have more Marlins. It's gotta be Marlins.

369
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 1: I don't know. By then, you probably have ten touchdowns

370
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:48,199
Speaker 1: Fro Rodgers in two games. Yeah, come on, it's not

371
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 1: official yet, James, before you do, you do have the

372
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 1: kiss at that. This is big CC vibes. I'm not

373
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:55,679
Speaker 1: gonna say the worried, but yeah, it's CC vibes right now.

374
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:58,480
Speaker 1: Oh for sure, no doubt. I'm miss I think I'm

375
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:00,199
Speaker 1: gonna take the Marlins on that one, which made me

376
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:01,559
Speaker 1: think that it's probably not gonna end up being a

377
00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 1: five point estimate. I think you're in the same spot. Yeah.

378
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 1: Mosco Brosbon four appearances against the Mets already this year,

379
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,400
Speaker 1: and there's only four appearances. He didn't playing their other

380
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,599
Speaker 1: even the series of Minnesota. He did not pitch. He

381
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 1: hasn't pitched against any team besides the Mets, and four

382
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,079
Speaker 1: and two thirds, five and two thirds. It's six and

383
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 1: the thirds innings against the Mets so far this seasonastcar

384
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:21,840
Speaker 1: and that was he didn't pitch on day either. No, yes,

385
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 1: that's crazy. Why is he using him only against them?

386
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 1: I mean, the Mets have done pretty well against him,

387
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 1: so keep using them please by all means. The story

388
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 1: is when we were talking about last years and this series,

389
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,520
Speaker 1: the Marlins big weaknesses, Marlins roster as their bullpen, we

390
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 1: gotta get them to get in the game. And on

391
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 1: Friday threw five relievers just scored all four of them.

392
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 1: They're their lineup is like pesky. It's the word we're

393
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: gonna be keep using when we described them, although it'll

394
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 1: be four months again until we talk about them, but

395
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:46,520
Speaker 1: like we're gonna live entire lives until the next time

396
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 1: we play the Marlins. Jane Sigura like culminated in the

397
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 1: peskiness where in what was it the fourth or fifth

398
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 1: inning when he hit the line drive off Tyler McGill's ankle, Yeah,

399
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 1: and everyone kind of held their breath for a minute.

400
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 1: Oh my God, not another one, but not another one

401
00:14:58,160 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: like police be okay that he was completely fine and

402
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 1: and kept shoving, which was really great, but like they

403
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 1: are annoying, and Jean Segura is just I really hate him,

404
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 1: the king of the past. I respect him, I don't

405
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 1: like him. Yeah, no, he gets through respect like he's

406
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 1: not a he's a different kind of rat. No, now

407
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:13,720
Speaker 1: talk about game one for a while, just city field

408
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 1: in general. Yeah, I move on to Game two. Big one, Yeah,

409
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:18,320
Speaker 1: big one, a little more straightforward. But the big story

410
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 1: again is kllede Asanka just looking really good again, looked

411
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 1: so good and he looks amazing. We'll have to say.

412
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 1: The second straight start against the Marlins, we all know

413
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 1: are not gonna have a premier offense in the league,

414
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 1: and it looks think next weekend if all stays a

415
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:29,440
Speaker 1: cording to the plan, he will get the a's, which

416
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 1: would be three straight starts to start his career against

417
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 1: bad offenses, which truthfully really good way to ease yourself

418
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:37,960
Speaker 1: into an entirely new country sport and all the situation everything. Yeah,

419
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 1: but this early returns are amazing. Six strikeouts and six innings.

420
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 1: He gave a one run on a jashism home run

421
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,120
Speaker 1: in the sixth. He just got an unbelievable groove after

422
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 1: the first inning where the Marlins got a couple hits

423
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 1: off the bat, and I believe he walks somebody too.

424
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 1: He only faced one batther over the minimum between ennings two, three,

425
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,920
Speaker 1: four and five. Yeah, he was just completely in control.

426
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 1: He was missing bats, he was getting called strikes, we

427
00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 1: contact everything. His fastball just looked like awesome, yeah, and tons,

428
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 1: tons and tons of life in that fastball. Sat ninety

429
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 1: six to ninety seven, few them up to ninety eight,

430
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 1: got six wifs on it. Again, really nice life sweeper

431
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 1: like it looks so esthetically pleasing when you watch it,

432
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 1: but still just like not missing many bats. But like

433
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 1: you also have said though, like sometimes the sweeper isn't

434
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:19,880
Speaker 1: used to miss bats sometimes, right, I guess for limiting

435
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 1: hard contact, and he was really good at doing that

436
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 1: in this Oh, really good, just even before I go

437
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 1: through a pitch by pitch again similar to McGill on

438
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 1: Friday saying I got nine ground balls on fifteen balls

439
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 1: and play and two pop up especially with our infield too,

440
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 1: Like that's awesome, but so out of fifteen balls in play,

441
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 1: eleven of them. Basically, nothing bad could happen. Yeah, like

442
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 1: the worst that could happen be a single eleven of

443
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 1: the fifteen times Tomorrow's made contact. Gains called that saying fantastic,

444
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 1: It's incredible, And that's something that was a concern I

445
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 1: think based on his repertoire heading into the season, just

446
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 1: heading in even just to him coming to this country.

447
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 1: But the existence of that sweeper and another pitch he

448
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 1: threw more of this week than last week, his color,

449
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 1: which also got a couple of ground balls and also

450
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 1: induced loss off contact. Those two pitches where they are

451
00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 1: right now, I think is really impressive, more so than

452
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:01,640
Speaker 1: his lost the and the amazing fork ball and the

453
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 1: football is just freaky as hell. Yeah, I mean the

454
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:06,720
Speaker 1: we saw, like I think Pitching Ninja put out a

455
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,239
Speaker 1: bunch of gifts because I mean, yeah, Coda Sanga has

456
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 1: some really insane stuff, and like we've mentioned before, if

457
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:13,800
Speaker 1: you get on pitching Ninja, you probably are doing something well.

458
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:15,680
Speaker 1: So he put out a h I think it was

459
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,119
Speaker 1: a Brian de la Cruz when he threw him a

460
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,240
Speaker 1: fastball earlier in the bat and then followed up with

461
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 1: a ghost forkball to strike him out when his helmet

462
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 1: fell off, which is also just a great video because

463
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:29,040
Speaker 1: Brian da la Cruz, Yeah, Rat rat the pitch tunneling

464
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 1: that he has on the fastball and ghost fork, You're like, oh,

465
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,439
Speaker 1: I understand why nobody can hit hit this. They're in

466
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:36,000
Speaker 1: the exact same spot and all of a sudden, the

467
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,479
Speaker 1: ghost fork just falls off off a table and the

468
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:41,439
Speaker 1: four team just gets that rise and it's like that

469
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 1: combination right there, those like that two pitch we've seen

470
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,360
Speaker 1: guys like Kevin Gosman be very successful with it, guy

471
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 1: that you're a big fan of. I don't know how

472
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:51,120
Speaker 1: they're splitters or fork ball technically like compared to each other,

473
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 1: but the movement's absolutely disgusting. It is. It's freaking and

474
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,159
Speaker 1: the difference of veloss is also really important. Yeah, and

475
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 1: Sanga's fastball is just a fun watch too because you

476
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 1: could see like the high end of it when he

477
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 1: can really locate it well, especially when he gets in

478
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:05,119
Speaker 1: the inner half to Ridy's because more than like rising

479
00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:07,160
Speaker 1: which has that hop that fastball you want, he has

480
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:10,119
Speaker 1: run on it, which isn't exactly like super invigable, but

481
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 1: it is good at being able to miss bats again.

482
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 1: Especially I guess those rights if you can put it

483
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:15,480
Speaker 1: on the right spot, like if he's comfortable, and he

484
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 1: was a lot of times on Saturday pitching inside against

485
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 1: these rioties. There were a few that bleed back and

486
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 1: then they kind of just come right to the for

487
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 1: the heart. That's when it gets scary. That's when he's

488
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,440
Speaker 1: more acceptible to the heart contact. There's really good limiting

489
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: that as long as he can like stay on that

490
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 1: inner half against Riley's with that fastball, it's basically un

491
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 1: hillable pitch. And like the ghost fork, we've seen like

492
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:36,320
Speaker 1: with dice K the gyro ball, and like there's there's

493
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,640
Speaker 1: been pitches like this, but this one legit looks like

494
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 1: like a real, real out pitch that he also seems

495
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 1: to use like to get big outs. Yeah, and heading

496
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,360
Speaker 1: into play on Sunday, the stack Cerzya John it had

497
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:50,120
Speaker 1: the most strikeouts of any individividual pitch in the entire league. Yeah,

498
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 1: it's pretty cool. So through two times, basically every single

499
00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,440
Speaker 1: team's rotation, the ghost fork by Koree Sango the most

500
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,199
Speaker 1: strikeouts of any individual pitch. You got three wets on

501
00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:58,920
Speaker 1: six wings. Most of them did come early. Again, it

502
00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,400
Speaker 1: was cold, it looks like very cold. As the game

503
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:02,720
Speaker 1: went on, once we got to the fifth inning, we

504
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 1: saw how the philosophy go down a little bit. And

505
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 1: the sixth inning he got in some trouble, did end

506
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:07,920
Speaker 1: up getting out of it happy. He wasn't pushed for

507
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 1: the seventh, but it was it was all working there

508
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,520
Speaker 1: when it was working twelve withs On twenty swings versus

509
00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,920
Speaker 1: the pitch overall through his first two stars Curzyah John

510
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,560
Speaker 1: and then second most strikeouts from a singular pitch in

511
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 1: baseball as Jacob de Gram with eleven was fourcing fast part. Yeah,

512
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:21,760
Speaker 1: you had to say the name is gonna he's the second.

513
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:23,360
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say whoever was the second was gonna say

514
00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:25,200
Speaker 1: it be fair. I wish the best for him. I

515
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 1: wish the Yeah, that's that's how we're gonna mark this, like,

516
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,640
Speaker 1: oh wow, so that pitch we know is really good,

517
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:31,159
Speaker 1: so this pitch might be better. I mean, he is

518
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:34,199
Speaker 1: a good pitcher and that other there he's fine, But

519
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 1: bottom line, sangle looks really good. He is really disgusting.

520
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 1: And I think there's gonna be a situation where it

521
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 1: probably people are gonna see him atle Bit. Yeah, and

522
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:44,120
Speaker 1: people are gonna realize, learn a little bit, and then

523
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 1: he has a chance to bounce back, and that's when

524
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:47,719
Speaker 1: this thing could get really fun. And what's really cool too.

525
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:49,320
Speaker 1: We talked about this with Sengo when we were hyping

526
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:51,200
Speaker 1: up in the offseason before the Mets even got him.

527
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:52,800
Speaker 1: Was like, he's a student of the game. The dude

528
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:56,360
Speaker 1: like loves analytics, he loves information, loves data. So when

529
00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:58,640
Speaker 1: those teams do adjust, I'm sure he's gonna adjust right back.

530
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:00,400
Speaker 1: He's not one of those guys they like, I'm stuck

531
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:02,280
Speaker 1: in my way, this is how I've pitched forever. I'm

532
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:04,920
Speaker 1: He's made changes to his repertoire already, so like, that's

533
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 1: that's huge. Yeah, he's a grinder people. They mentioned every

534
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 1: single broadcast now. They came up through the Japanese developmental League.

535
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:11,879
Speaker 1: He's a baseball gym rap. Yeah, that's it. That's what

536
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:14,879
Speaker 1: you got. Jeff McNeil. Happy birthday, Jeff McNeil. On Saturday,

537
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 1: he had basically I don't know if it's every game

538
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 1: on his birthday that he had played, but was back

539
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:20,560
Speaker 1: to back years, back to back years. At least he

540
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:22,080
Speaker 1: had a home run on his birthday. Did not get

541
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,240
Speaker 1: one on this birthday. But he did get an rbid

542
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:25,639
Speaker 1: the first thing with a basis load of walk. But

543
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:27,399
Speaker 1: that would make sense because twenty twenty then playing his

544
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 1: birthday nineteen. Yes, I don't recall eighteen played the full seasoneteen.

545
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:36,199
Speaker 5: Yeah, you guys remember the home run he hit on

546
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,200
Speaker 5: twenty twenty one on as It was a game tying

547
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:40,439
Speaker 5: home run in the ninth against the.

548
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:44,199
Speaker 1: Mart That was also the home opener. That was the

549
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 1: home opener game. You and your dad came to yah

550
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 1: or yeah, we got Bloch's out there afterwards. Oh man

551
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 1: bluchi'es that. I was like one of the last times

552
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,520
Speaker 1: I had like real pizza. Ye that was yeah, right,

553
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 1: that was the first time we were ever like had

554
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 1: the podcast more like live doing things during the game. Yes, right,

555
00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 1: did that meme about like fur though with with Adam

556
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:04,960
Speaker 1: Sandler from Gems. Yeah, yeah, it was like the freeze

557
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:06,439
Speaker 1: ram but could fourth the stick and the elbow. I like,

558
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 1: this is how I win? That was a chaos gay. Yeah.

559
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:11,199
Speaker 1: But Jeff looked good again. He got a double in

560
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 1: this game as well, and he walked in a run

561
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,240
Speaker 1: which was nice. Yeah, Jeff, Jeff looks good. Jeff looks good.

562
00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 1: Five for ten, two home runs, a double lifetime on

563
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 1: his birthday, planso another home runners, which is great to

564
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 1: see because Pete, I don't want to say, had like

565
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:23,560
Speaker 1: been struggled a little bit, but it had been like

566
00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:25,879
Speaker 1: a little like hot and cold. The power is definitely

567
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,119
Speaker 1: still there though it's it's he's shown it, you know,

568
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 1: this past series as well. That's really what we want

569
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:31,760
Speaker 1: from Pete too. We want him to be hitting these

570
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,160
Speaker 1: home runs and he is. It was also a good

571
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,159
Speaker 1: like punch we needed in this game. It kind of

572
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,120
Speaker 1: like get the get the space that we wanted because

573
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:38,639
Speaker 1: it was one nothing at the time. He made it

574
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:40,680
Speaker 1: three nothing. And I will say, like the crowded city

575
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 1: field like was a little quiet. I feel like maybe

576
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:45,159
Speaker 1: like a little cold, really really cold too, but like

577
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 1: a little bit on edge, like a little hesitant. I

578
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:48,440
Speaker 1: feel like, just like, you know, I'm gonna watch the

579
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,879
Speaker 1: game here, I'm gonna not overreact that one. Felt like

580
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:52,359
Speaker 1: there was like a little bit of a sigh of relief.

581
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,520
Speaker 1: Same thing when Edward Escobar hit a home run later

582
00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:55,880
Speaker 1: in the game too, that made it five to one,

583
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,280
Speaker 1: so like everyone's like, okay, we can breathe a little

584
00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:00,360
Speaker 1: bit like we got some room now. Yeah, and through

585
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 1: ten games for the Mets this year as eleven RBIs

586
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 1: so on pace for about one to eighty Yeah, not bad. No,

587
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 1: that'd be a great rate to good spots to be.

588
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 1: If he has more RBIs and he had last year,

589
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 1: I say it's a good season. I'd say the Mets

590
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:10,800
Speaker 1: had a pretty good year. If he finishes with more

591
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:12,879
Speaker 1: RBIs than that, Yeah, A couple of nice dads here

592
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:14,879
Speaker 1: from John. Two. He's twenty five home runs against the

593
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,119
Speaker 1: Marlands in seventy one games a lot. That's insane. And

594
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:18,879
Speaker 1: that's his most home runs or a any team. It's

595
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 1: like a fifty home run pace if you played a

596
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:23,120
Speaker 1: full year. He got sixty right here, close to Yeah,

597
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:25,000
Speaker 1: I didn't even see that in there. John sneaking in

598
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:26,800
Speaker 1: and he likes to write in red. Yeah right, John

599
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:28,280
Speaker 1: looks right. I like, I like what John rid's things.

600
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:29,760
Speaker 1: And Rex, we one give them credit and two they

601
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:31,159
Speaker 1: stick out. That's true. A lot of times it's just

602
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:34,240
Speaker 1: us writing stuff. Yeah, these are stats, that is true. Yeah.

603
00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:36,879
Speaker 1: And then we talked about benually before Jazz did hit

604
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:38,399
Speaker 1: the home run off of Sanga in the six when

605
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:40,359
Speaker 1: things got a little bit dicey. It did feel like

606
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 1: he again just kind of I don't know, it's still

607
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,400
Speaker 1: just last lock going on right now. Jazz is also good.

608
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,320
Speaker 1: I think it is also good. Japanese stadiums they're a

609
00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:51,879
Speaker 1: lot mostly indoors. Correct, there are a lot more I

610
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,720
Speaker 1: think indoors stadiums than there are like here that he

611
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:58,040
Speaker 1: would be playing inconsistently, like a bunch of them. He

612
00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:01,960
Speaker 1: came from what team quocas the soft Bankhawks. I believe

613
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 1: they play on an indoor stade. So there you go.

614
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,600
Speaker 1: That that alone right there. He's got cold games ever

615
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 1: pitched on. Yeah, I mean Japan gets kind of cold. Yeah,

616
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:13,679
Speaker 1: but indoor us. Whatever about Jazz, I mean there's something

617
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:15,400
Speaker 1: else about Jazz here we were talking about during the game.

618
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:17,359
Speaker 1: I mean, I would let you take it. I thought, well,

619
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 1: the tweeted the jinks, Well the jinks. Yeah, we talked.

620
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:21,240
Speaker 1: All we did was talk crab about jazz Is center

621
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,000
Speaker 1: field defense. He made a couple of really nice plays

622
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:24,920
Speaker 1: this series. They weren't like nice plays, nice plays where

623
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:26,560
Speaker 1: I was like, wow, that was a good center fielder play.

624
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:28,840
Speaker 1: It was like it was Jake Mangham special where you

625
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 1: just don't get to a ball quickly enough and then

626
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:31,760
Speaker 1: you dive and people are like, oh my god, we'll

627
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 1: play Yeah, like probably, like you know, a very good

628
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,240
Speaker 1: defensive center fielder makes that play look a little bit easier.

629
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:39,160
Speaker 1: He did make like one play where he did lay

630
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:40,880
Speaker 1: out like completely like got airborne.

631
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:41,119
Speaker 2: It was.

632
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 1: It was pretty sickcaturally on the game. But uh yeah,

633
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 1: I mean we definitely did not get the as bad

634
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,800
Speaker 1: centerfield jets as we saw in Miami, which would have

635
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:50,800
Speaker 1: been nice. But yeah, I mean, he's got like a

636
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 1: few more games under his belt now. And it was

637
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:54,480
Speaker 1: a funny tweet that came out by Jazz that was

638
00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:56,720
Speaker 1: in yesterday. I was like this week when he said

639
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:58,879
Speaker 1: that his girlfriend told him he can't tweet until they

640
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 1: play for the games, that he can't tweet, he can't

641
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,719
Speaker 1: tweet about the game like the baseball Well, I mean,

642
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,240
Speaker 1: and then he did this weekend after game one. I

643
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 1: think people were complaining because he was hitting fourth and

644
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,720
Speaker 1: he showed bunt or maybe maybe that maybe it did

645
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:12,719
Speaker 1: happen this weekend. Yeah, showed bunt a couple of times

646
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,159
Speaker 1: and then someone was like giving him crap about it,

647
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:16,480
Speaker 1: and he was like have you seen me? Like I'm

648
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 1: not a four hitterer, dude, and then he hadn't hit fourth,

649
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,199
Speaker 1: looked a lot more comfortable, Like I said, Saturday and

650
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,400
Speaker 1: Sunday we saw it again. He hit another home run.

651
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:25,879
Speaker 1: I'm just really impressed that Jazz's girlfriend knows about like

652
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:28,680
Speaker 1: stabilization points and baseball statistics, so she realized, like, after

653
00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 1: forty games, I'll probably have about eighty balls and play

654
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:32,959
Speaker 1: at that point, so power metrics will have stabilized. She's

655
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 1: a keeper, Yeah she is. You know what she's doing. Seventh,

656
00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:36,320
Speaker 1: then he got a little bit shaky and Drew Smith

657
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 1: just kind of didn't have it again. It was like

658
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:40,920
Speaker 1: shockingly cold. I can't stress this enough. My hands were freezing.

659
00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 1: It was way colder than it was on the home opener.

660
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 1: Maybe this played a little bit into it. I mean

661
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,359
Speaker 1: they've been indoors and in Florida basically for the last

662
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:49,720
Speaker 1: two months here, so could have played into it. But

663
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:52,080
Speaker 1: luckily John Curtis came in shut the door. Dude's a

664
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 1: life saver. We told you to watch out for John Curtis.

665
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,359
Speaker 1: He's coming in some big moments and made some big pitches.

666
00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:58,720
Speaker 1: Another last big moment from this game was Edward the

667
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,560
Speaker 1: Westcobar get it a home run. He got really close

668
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:03,199
Speaker 1: hit home run a little walls scraper was like in

669
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 1: the fifth. Yeah, and there was visible frustration, which kind

670
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:07,359
Speaker 1: of makes sense because he has been a little on

671
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:09,320
Speaker 1: the schnider a little bit this so far start the year.

672
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 1: He sees what's going on in the media. He hears

673
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:14,360
Speaker 1: people like saying things to him like it's very obvious.

674
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,080
Speaker 1: But it was really good as he met that home

675
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:18,160
Speaker 1: run because he needed that and this moment in time,

676
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 1: the team didn't need that. Yes we need we need

677
00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:21,640
Speaker 1: some cushion there. Helped for both ways, like fred Wardo

678
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:23,960
Speaker 1: Escobar's mental state and for the Mets fans mental state

679
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 1: and the team's well being, Like he made it a

680
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 1: little bit further, you know, the score in between the

681
00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:30,560
Speaker 1: two teams. And then we got Dave Robinson the ninth inning,

682
00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:33,159
Speaker 1: who was just awesome. It's really good cash money. It's

683
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 1: really nice that he comes in to the game and

684
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:37,560
Speaker 1: I really don't feel any sort of nervousness whatsoever. Yeah, No,

685
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:39,800
Speaker 1: and it's kind of cool. Another thing, first home series,

686
00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 1: you kind of learn about a lot of new players

687
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:43,040
Speaker 1: in this team, like their music taste, because we've got

688
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:44,919
Speaker 1: new walkup songs everybody. Some guys have same walk up

689
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,560
Speaker 1: from last year, some guys have some new ones. Did

690
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 1: Robinsons Wee Home Alabama remix walk Up? Just that's from

691
00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:53,080
Speaker 1: John shoutout Razor some of the cool ones, Pizza Co

692
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,439
Speaker 1: Walking Up that shook ones this year. Yeah, Alavino kept

693
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 1: the same Kik Coully from last year, which was and

694
00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 1: McNeil have not changed. I don't know if they know

695
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,359
Speaker 1: any other songs now they're changing anytimes. Those guys know

696
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:03,760
Speaker 1: five songs each. Thank god, we don't have to hear

697
00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:07,880
Speaker 1: like some like really really awful, like country rock music again.

698
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 5: Like, no, there's some bad. I mean, I'm not gonna

699
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,080
Speaker 5: name it no more imagine bad country music.

700
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 1: I'll say this. Stephens did a great job in relief

701
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 1: today in Game three, but the song that he came

702
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 1: out to was just awful. I just spised country music.

703
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:23,760
Speaker 1: I don't know what's worse than hate it. It is

704
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:27,360
Speaker 1: like ear piercing. I absolutely think it's the worst. It's

705
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,360
Speaker 1: just bad. What he came out to was like, how

706
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:31,760
Speaker 1: do you even get ready to pitch to that? I mean,

707
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:34,840
Speaker 1: he did a great job, so it worked, but my god,

708
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:38,320
Speaker 1: I don't think if you gave me like a thousand

709
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,399
Speaker 1: songs that anything even closed would come like that. I

710
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:43,240
Speaker 1: wasn't here Saturday. What was Sanga's walkout song? Oh that's

711
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:45,080
Speaker 1: I don't know. Remember my parents kind of walked in

712
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 1: a lot. Hold on, give me a second, John's got it.

713
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 1: Tyler McGill came out to Big Papa and I like

714
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:52,399
Speaker 1: that which for which for like six seven? And like

715
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,199
Speaker 1: that's a good one trip. Yeah, No, that that that.

716
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,440
Speaker 1: I was like, Oh, Tyler McGill, Big Papa, Like, that's

717
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 1: that's a little uh, it's a little confidence. Go we're

718
00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:03,000
Speaker 1: gonna start transition here to Sunday's game. Whatever song he

719
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:04,879
Speaker 1: had was a banger. I really feel myself and that

720
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 1: was it was like reggaeton music.

721
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:11,360
Speaker 5: Not sure from Counting Stars by One Republic. Really, that's

722
00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:13,800
Speaker 5: so funny. Interesting, Yeah, I want to know the genesis

723
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:16,679
Speaker 5: of that. Yes, how why.

724
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 1: Also Carrasco does watch it? He does Jesse's Girl right,

725
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:22,960
Speaker 1: or here's that last year? Yeah, that's why. But like

726
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,439
Speaker 1: every time I hear him like that's crazy. I might

727
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:27,359
Speaker 1: as well talk about Game three there we're ahead and

728
00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:29,720
Speaker 1: talk about that one. Game three obviously was the loss

729
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 1: of the series just start off bad from the start.

730
00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 1: Carrasco was just maybe not sharp in the first inning.

731
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:37,640
Speaker 1: A couple guys got on early, some stolen bases there.

732
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:39,720
Speaker 1: They were testing Francisco I talked about that was like

733
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,680
Speaker 1: some clear show of gamesman ship by his own against

734
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:44,840
Speaker 1: against a rookie catcher make his first start of the season.

735
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: A guy did didn't break up with the team, A

736
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,960
Speaker 1: guy who people have outside the organization, like called different

737
00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:51,639
Speaker 1: defensive things in the question. And he got a lead

738
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,119
Speaker 1: off single and he stole second there and two pitches instantly. Yes,

739
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 1: no no hesitation whatsoever. And I'm not necessarily sure who

740
00:27:57,680 --> 00:27:59,359
Speaker 1: he stole it on. Like again, like at the stadium,

741
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,240
Speaker 1: it's a little bit order to tell. I think sometimes

742
00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:02,919
Speaker 1: because you're watching like so many different things. I think

743
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:04,359
Speaker 1: it was pure Gamesman show. Yeah, I think it was

744
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:06,280
Speaker 1: like I'm gonna challenge it. Let's see what the rookiees got. Yeah,

745
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 1: let's see what the young kids got. Jazz is also

746
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 1: like a very good bass dealer and yeah, very fast,

747
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 1: so like it's kind of like a perfect marriage there

748
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,200
Speaker 1: of testing. The guy Alvarez made some good throws today.

749
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 1: He didn't throw anybody out there's some good throws like

750
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 1: sprinkled in there. The first one was a little bit rough,

751
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:20,480
Speaker 1: but like as you get into the game, getting the

752
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:22,120
Speaker 1: flow more, he looked better as it went on. Okay,

753
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:23,639
Speaker 1: ball was there. It was all bang bang plays, and

754
00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 1: we know how much easier and how how much increased

755
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,359
Speaker 1: stolen base rates are so far this season. There's big bases, dude,

756
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,439
Speaker 1: but yeah, huge basis. But this this was like a

757
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:32,399
Speaker 1: very obvious like I'm gonna look in your eyes on

758
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:33,800
Speaker 1: the tell you're not gonna get me out right now.

759
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:35,720
Speaker 1: I was. I will say though, like Alvares like looked

760
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:37,879
Speaker 1: pretty comfortable behind the plate today. Yeah, there wasn't anything

761
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 1: that like stood out to me, Like for the concerns

762
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,400
Speaker 1: that people might have about his defensive you know, ability

763
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 1: behind the plate looked pretty good. Like there was a

764
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:46,920
Speaker 1: couple of pitches that like you could work on, but

765
00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:49,520
Speaker 1: that's like him still also getting comfortable with pitchers that

766
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 1: he's learning as well, Like there's gonna be a learning

767
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:53,239
Speaker 1: curve for any catcher when they get to the major

768
00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 1: league level, especially guy like Franciscavras is twenty twenty one

769
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 1: years old, Like he's going to be improved. Also interesting

770
00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 1: in the bottom of this first stting and now kind

771
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:01,880
Speaker 1: of things after the fact because Starling Martey hit a

772
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 1: double stole third end up sliding into Gene Cigarets knee

773
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 1: left the game with strained neck. But I can't even

774
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:09,480
Speaker 1: recall the last time two people stole their in the

775
00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 1: first inning of one game. It's just we've we've seen,

776
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 1: like I feel like when we came up as baseball fans,

777
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:16,160
Speaker 1: like when we were younger, like there was a lot

778
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: of stolen basis and obviously like during the glory days

779
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 1: for us when we were Mets fans, like Jose Rays

780
00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 1: was stealing a ton of bags like they were they

781
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:24,400
Speaker 1: were very athletic on the bases, and then there was

782
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 1: just kind of like this like last ten years or so,

783
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,760
Speaker 1: where nobody steals bases anymore. It was like the the

784
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,320
Speaker 1: risk reward's not worth it. Now with the new bases now,

785
00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 1: with the new pickoff rules and the pitchclock, I think

786
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:35,479
Speaker 1: that's really more what it has to do with it.

787
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:37,479
Speaker 1: We're seeing people run a lot more. It does make

788
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:39,200
Speaker 1: the game a lot more entertaining. Like still on bases

789
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,040
Speaker 1: are electric bits are very fun and it kind of

790
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:42,560
Speaker 1: like a lot of these stolen bases. Seems like they're

791
00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:44,840
Speaker 1: stealing them pretty and handily. So I don't know. He

792
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 1: seems like they probably could have been stealing in the

793
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,960
Speaker 1: last couple of years. Probably, yeah, maybe. Like again, I

794
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:50,720
Speaker 1: think it really does come down to the pitchclock and

795
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,080
Speaker 1: the pickoff rule, because the pitchers seem very focused on

796
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 1: making sure they adhere to the pitchclock rules, and you

797
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 1: can only pick off twice in one at bat, so

798
00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 1: you gotta be you know, pick and choose your battles there, Yeah,

799
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,000
Speaker 1: for sure. And then in that later in that first sitting,

800
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 1: Brian de la Cruz just hit a spinner like yeah,

801
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:07,440
Speaker 1: really far, I mean he was due, he was due

802
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:09,520
Speaker 1: to do. He can't play against the mess that often

803
00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 1: and not destroy us. Will Brian de la Cruz be

804
00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:13,840
Speaker 1: on the Marlins in September, that's a good question. I

805
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:16,959
Speaker 1: maybe not. I don't know. It's he. It's like him

806
00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 1: or Hayes Buzanchez. One of them won't be. Probably he

807
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:21,320
Speaker 1: should keep him. He's controlled for like the next four years.

808
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 1: But if someone comes along with a good offer, you

809
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:25,280
Speaker 1: probably take it. Also, that moment that that at bat

810
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:27,240
Speaker 1: you talked about from Saturday, when his helmet flew off.

811
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:29,600
Speaker 1: I noticed Brian dey la Cruz losing, losing his hairy

812
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:31,880
Speaker 1: little and he's completely bald. That no clue it was bald.

813
00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:34,080
Speaker 1: That that really changed, like the scope of how a

814
00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:35,640
Speaker 1: human as a player. It doesn't make in a weird

815
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 1: way better or worse. Better, Yeah, much better? Yeah, Yeah,

816
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 1: bald Bonds Bond. It was also bald. Michael Jordan. Michael

817
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,120
Speaker 1: Jordan was also bald. Lebron James is bald. But won't

818
00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 1: let it go. That's that's the problem. That is a problem.

819
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 1: I'll give you that one. Yeah, if you're Lebron guy. Yeah,

820
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:51,680
Speaker 1: if you're okay with that, if you're okay with your

821
00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:54,480
Speaker 1: appearance just completely falling apart, then you're gonna be a

822
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:57,160
Speaker 1: better athlete, more focused. There you go. Brian de la

823
00:30:57,160 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 1: Cruz hitting the home run. We did make it. We tried.

824
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:02,040
Speaker 1: We tried to make it close to least, like how

825
00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 1: many times this guy on third base? Yeah, the first

826
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 1: five minutes this game was frustrating. If you just look

827
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:08,240
Speaker 1: the boxer, like, all right, the Mets loss, that happens,

828
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 1: you're not gonna get sweep whatever. But from innings one

829
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 1: through five we were challenging basically every single inning innings

830
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:16,080
Speaker 1: between innings one, two, three, and four, three times we've

831
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:17,400
Speaker 1: got a man at the third base with less than

832
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 1: two outs, and the only time we got that got

833
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:22,240
Speaker 1: home was in Francisco RBI two out, two strike, RBS

834
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,480
Speaker 1: single piece ahead. This is a PSA to Mets fans

835
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:27,080
Speaker 1: out there. There's a nickname going around for Francisco Alvarez,

836
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 1: Frank the Tank. Please nobody, please, God no, don't give

837
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:35,720
Speaker 1: the young phenom, superstar, potential guy bad nickname, a bad

838
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:37,480
Speaker 1: nickname like Frank the Tank right now, like it, just

839
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 1: let it. Let him just be Francisco Alvarez. Let him

840
00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:41,640
Speaker 1: be a dog, let him be a beast. We can

841
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 1: come up with a cooler nickname. Troll. Yeah, that's the

842
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:48,280
Speaker 1: one we should be using. The nickname. His nickname, Yeah,

843
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:50,840
Speaker 1: his nickname, the one that he likes, that he gave himself.

844
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:52,520
Speaker 1: Let's not make a new one for him. And you

845
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:54,600
Speaker 1: can probably read between the lines too and figure out why.

846
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:58,480
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, let's let's let's get a clue here. Yeah,

847
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,160
Speaker 1: back it got it got frustrated into these these innings

848
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 1: of getting continuously getting guys third base, not getting them in.

849
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:05,400
Speaker 1: That's like a bona fide way the feel yourself falling

850
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 1: out of a game. And then in the fifth inning,

851
00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 1: Garret Cooper, certain new, new, newly pinned, certified met killer

852
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,880
Speaker 1: comes up and hits another spinner off Carrasco even a

853
00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 1: million miles an hour. I don't even know if it's new.

854
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 1: I think he's just always been he's always These last

855
00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 1: these last seven games have really kind of got hammered.

856
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,880
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean he's always been a good hitter.

857
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:24,800
Speaker 1: It's just like health for him. And the Marlins also

858
00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:26,600
Speaker 1: like weirdly just didn't play him all out there, like, hey,

859
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:28,960
Speaker 1: he's the sagular head back out there for another one,

860
00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:31,720
Speaker 1: good guy veteran, Yeah, veteran presence, Lewin Diaz. Let's give

861
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:34,000
Speaker 1: you another chance. Gart Cooper's good ball player and he

862
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 1: absolutely killed the Mets in in this game today. Garret Cooper,

863
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:38,760
Speaker 1: I feel like he is older than we think too. Ah,

864
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 1: he's like thirty to thirty two years. Yeah, no, he's

865
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,240
Speaker 1: sneaky old, which is also like a little bit weird.

866
00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:45,239
Speaker 1: But yeah, he crushed it one hundred and ten off

867
00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:45,560
Speaker 1: the bat.

868
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 2: He will be traded, Yeah, he won't be.

869
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 1: On No way, He's on the team any prediction back

870
00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:56,840
Speaker 1: to the Yankees. Oh, that's not a bad one. Mets.

871
00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,640
Speaker 1: You can't beat them, join them, bring him in, taking

872
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,600
Speaker 1: take them away. That's it's edition by subtractive is Gara,

873
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:05,520
Speaker 1: Cooper and Brian up tighly facing these guys. I'm really

874
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 1: done with them. And then did have a really good

875
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,080
Speaker 1: chance in the bottom of the sixth. Then come back

876
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 1: to out rally Pete and Canna getting some knocks. Tampa

877
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:14,080
Speaker 1: Scott came into the game walk Jeff McNeil on four pitches.

878
00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:17,280
Speaker 1: Frustrating sequence here, that's Tanner Scott and then water Escobar

879
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 1: saw a ball a ball and then swing with the

880
00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:22,040
Speaker 1: next pitch got jammed ground ball to third base. Yeah,

881
00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:24,560
Speaker 1: but the end to an inning would have wished maybe

882
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,800
Speaker 1: for a little more patience at the plate, But listen,

883
00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 1: who are we to judge what's going on also at

884
00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:31,719
Speaker 1: the play? Yeah, well, the perfect world, you hope take

885
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 1: a strike there. I don't know that could be different.

886
00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 1: But there's also if there wasn't bases loaded, that's a

887
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 1: base hit. Yeah, but also maybe he's playing in front

888
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:40,520
Speaker 1: of the bag because like Jesus girl was playing back

889
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:41,880
Speaker 1: and new he had that option. But even then he

890
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:43,800
Speaker 1: beat I think it was Kennon on second He into

891
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 1: the base by a moment slightly slightly, and like if

892
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:48,440
Speaker 1: you could run through third base, I think Cannon might

893
00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:50,760
Speaker 1: have beat him. Yeah, because like you can't run past

894
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:53,520
Speaker 1: the base, he could just tag you out. Maybe, interesting,

895
00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:55,040
Speaker 1: is that something you should try to do then in

896
00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:58,160
Speaker 1: that situation, because if you run past the base, that

897
00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:00,120
Speaker 1: run with count run woul account if you got I

898
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:02,840
Speaker 1: don't know, that's interesting. That's liked piece of baseball philosophy.

899
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:04,960
Speaker 1: You know who would know crunch the numbers, Bucks Show

900
00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:06,800
Speaker 1: Walter if that's the right move or not. And if

901
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 1: they didn't do it, that means it's probably not the

902
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:10,759
Speaker 1: right move. As we see with our Buck cups, if

903
00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:12,440
Speaker 1: you're at the stadium, you gotta get a Buck cup,

904
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:13,719
Speaker 1: you gotta get a Buck cup. These is I think

905
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:15,560
Speaker 1: these are the only commemdber of cups that we sell, right,

906
00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:17,759
Speaker 1: that's the only one I've seen. Yeah, you get Buck

907
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:19,960
Speaker 1: show Walter's face on a cup. I don't know any

908
00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:22,359
Speaker 1: other team that puts this is a Showalter action shot too.

909
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:24,560
Speaker 1: Right here walking out to the mountain making the pitching. No,

910
00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:26,239
Speaker 1: it was walking up going and argument umpire, tell tell

911
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:28,359
Speaker 1: me those the rules better. Yeah, no, that's true. It's

912
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:30,680
Speaker 1: giving a stern talking to the umpire. Yeah, but that

913
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:32,360
Speaker 1: was that was again, that was a frustrating moment in

914
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 1: this game where you could have even a base hit

915
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:36,480
Speaker 1: there cut Custolita two, so six to two. At the time,

916
00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:38,880
Speaker 1: you really felt like there were so many opportunities to

917
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 1: get that game. We know the shortcoming this Marlins bullpen,

918
00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:43,719
Speaker 1: but the game kind of died in that moment. Yeah. No,

919
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:46,360
Speaker 1: I mean that one's stunk. Uh and that was pretty

920
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:47,880
Speaker 1: much it for the game. I mean, yeah, let me

921
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,200
Speaker 1: just crop mech carosskrask for a second, like go for it.

922
00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:51,719
Speaker 1: Gave a big home run and Da La Cruz on

923
00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:54,600
Speaker 1: a hanging slider. Another one in Ghare Cooper, another hanging slider.

924
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:56,919
Speaker 1: Only got three total whiffs. Two were on his ninety

925
00:34:56,960 --> 00:35:00,120
Speaker 1: one mile an hour fastball. It's not it looks I'm

926
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:02,000
Speaker 1: hoping this could as the weather issue because I don't know.

927
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 1: It's a little so let's catch her end. I feel

928
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:05,759
Speaker 1: like we had we talked about this last year too,

929
00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:09,640
Speaker 1: about Carlos Carrasco that remember, like in the colder at

930
00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:11,520
Speaker 1: the beginning of the month, like a season like the

931
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:13,439
Speaker 1: Villo was down a little bit more earlier in the year,

932
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:15,279
Speaker 1: and as the season went on he built up and

933
00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 1: got more velo as it went on, as the weather

934
00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:20,040
Speaker 1: got warmer. Very well, could be a weather thing. Yeah,

935
00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 1: but his fastest fastball today was like ninety two. Got

936
00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:25,319
Speaker 1: hit hard. Yeah, he got hit hard. Something to keep

937
00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:27,640
Speaker 1: an eye out for here moving forward. Yeah, Jazz got tossed.

938
00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:30,360
Speaker 1: We couldn't finish the sweep. John, were those pitches to

939
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:33,319
Speaker 1: Jazz strikes? Because we were watching in the stadium, so

940
00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:34,200
Speaker 1: we have no clue.

941
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:35,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought so.

942
00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:38,360
Speaker 1: I mean the K zone thing, the one he got

943
00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:40,839
Speaker 1: wrung up on and Guy Jackson looked a little low,

944
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:42,880
Speaker 1: looked a little loone, maybe like a hair outside.

945
00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:45,200
Speaker 5: Well, it was also the third time he had done it.

946
00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:47,399
Speaker 5: I think Jeff Nelson at that point was kind of yeah,

947
00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:49,200
Speaker 5: known with Jazz's bs. By the way, do you guys

948
00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:52,440
Speaker 5: know that Jeff Nelson, former Yankee reliever, was the Marlins booth?

949
00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, I think he does radio for them.

950
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:55,920
Speaker 1: I don't know who I saw take a picture with

951
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:58,360
Speaker 1: him today and post it like I was really weirdly

952
00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 1: scrolling through Twitter, and I was like, Oh, someone to

953
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 1: a picture with Jeff Nelson. I remember that guy.

954
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:04,440
Speaker 5: I think Jeff Nelson and Jeff Nelson get together for uh,

955
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:05,640
Speaker 5: for dinner when they're in town together.

956
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:10,279
Speaker 1: And the Texas Rangers. Yeah, giants and giants. I mean,

957
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:11,840
Speaker 1: if there was an a James giondo I'd get a

958
00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:16,719
Speaker 1: beer there is? Yeah, well exactly, we hang out all

959
00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:20,399
Speaker 1: the time. You can gluten free beer, a proverbial beer.

960
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:22,319
Speaker 1: I'm just just the concept of a drink, of course,

961
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,120
Speaker 1: actual beer. And that was I mean, that's it. Sweeps

962
00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:27,359
Speaker 1: are hard, really sually didn't sleep a lot last year,

963
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:29,520
Speaker 1: Like that was our big thing. Was like to have three,

964
00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:32,000
Speaker 1: to have three super have been nice. But again, at

965
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:33,279
Speaker 1: the end of this, it's cool that we got to

966
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:35,120
Speaker 1: play seven games against the Marlins. You're not gonna see

967
00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:38,360
Speaker 1: him till till September eighteen, where they should probably be

968
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:40,839
Speaker 1: a lot worse. Yeah, and you went five and two. Yeah,

969
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:42,279
Speaker 1: went five and two. That's what you gotta do against

970
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:44,440
Speaker 1: the bad teams, especially like in the year where you

971
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:45,880
Speaker 1: play them a lot less. Five and two is a

972
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:47,799
Speaker 1: great way to start against the Marlins because we know

973
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:49,959
Speaker 1: the Phillies can never beat them, and they beat the Reds.

974
00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:52,160
Speaker 1: This weekend. So love to see that they're you know,

975
00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:54,000
Speaker 1: on their downfall right now, all right, let's go ahead

976
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:56,920
Speaker 1: and preview. Oh no, before we preview the Padre series,

977
00:36:56,920 --> 00:36:59,319
Speaker 1: forgot because John wasn't around for the last episode when

978
00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:01,960
Speaker 1: we did the estimate, and John, we needed you badly.

979
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:03,600
Speaker 1: We got the same number. We didn't know what to

980
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:05,520
Speaker 1: do and we just said we just froze too bad.

981
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,120
Speaker 1: So still one nothing. Ma, I'm interesting what you got

982
00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:11,440
Speaker 1: cooking up for us against the Padres here.

983
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:15,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, I apologize for that passover Sator conflicts. I tried

984
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:17,840
Speaker 5: to try to finagle the time of the Sator but

985
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:18,640
Speaker 5: I was shot down.

986
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:20,520
Speaker 1: It's okay, you don't got to apologize.

987
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:21,400
Speaker 2: It happens. It happens.

988
00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:23,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, it happens. But okay, ask the met for this

989
00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:26,560
Speaker 5: upcoming series. So a little peek behind the curtain for

990
00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 5: the listeners. You guys agree a lot, and that's cool.

991
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:31,120
Speaker 5: But James and I we had to go back and forth.

992
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,040
Speaker 5: We have a group text and you know, it's it's

993
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:35,640
Speaker 5: not always it's not always agreeing, and that's good. Debate

994
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:39,480
Speaker 5: is good, Conflicting viewpoints is good. This past off season,

995
00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:42,120
Speaker 5: the Padres signs Andrew Bogarts. I love the move by

996
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:42,800
Speaker 5: San Diego.

997
00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:45,160
Speaker 2: James not as high on the move as I was.

998
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:47,600
Speaker 1: I thought, conceptually the move is okay for the short term,

999
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:49,479
Speaker 1: but I think that Dander Bogart is the guy whose

1000
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:52,440
Speaker 1: skill set might not age super well. James likes the lowers,

1001
00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:54,680
Speaker 1: That's what it is. The one you like lower. Oh,

1002
00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:57,440
Speaker 1: you're always lower, lower under unders? Oh lower, So it's

1003
00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:01,279
Speaker 1: a lower Are you talking about levers? Say undress lower? Yeah,

1004
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:02,120
Speaker 1: you're an under man.

1005
00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:04,400
Speaker 5: Well, I think life's too short to take any unders.

1006
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:08,160
Speaker 5: But regardless of that, so I was thinking, what's this

1007
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:10,560
Speaker 5: going to be? And I was looking at the Padres roster.

1008
00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:14,400
Speaker 5: I don't have to go too far order pretty good years.

1009
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:17,480
Speaker 5: So you guys have your white boards. Now we've got markers,

1010
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:19,799
Speaker 5: We've got the whole thing. I want you guys to

1011
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:23,799
Speaker 5: tell me how many total bases will Xander Bogarts the really,

1012
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:24,799
Speaker 5: really good saying, what does you have?

1013
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:26,640
Speaker 2: Seven extra base hits? Now off to a great start

1014
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:28,640
Speaker 2: with the Padres. I love it. I love being right

1015
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:30,520
Speaker 2: and telling James.

1016
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,479
Speaker 1: Usually ten year concerence are decided within seven games. Totally

1017
00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:32,880
Speaker 1: right on that.

1018
00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:34,760
Speaker 5: Fine, I'm just saying he's off to a great start.

1019
00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:38,279
Speaker 5: Six extra basis actually base it's okay. How many total

1020
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:40,560
Speaker 5: bases will Xander Bogarts have in this three game series

1021
00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 5: at City Field?

1022
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:42,680
Speaker 1: For those who keep you track at home walk do

1023
00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:45,319
Speaker 1: not count towards total bases? Yeah, hit nord to hit

1024
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:47,480
Speaker 1: by pitches, ord to hit by pitches. Gotta gotta put

1025
00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:52,279
Speaker 1: the ball to the bat. Interesting three games, right, yes,

1026
00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:58,080
Speaker 1: three game game series, Sureser Peterson and McGill. Okay, Man

1027
00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:00,400
Speaker 1: is a good ball player, but we got some good

1028
00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:02,720
Speaker 1: pitching here. We got some good pitching. I am gonna

1029
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:04,360
Speaker 1: go with this number.

1030
00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:05,320
Speaker 2: I like that.

1031
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:07,560
Speaker 1: I got my number written down. How do you look, James,

1032
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:11,439
Speaker 1: he's thinking this one in between three numbers. Why don't

1033
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,440
Speaker 1: you split the difference, Split the difference. Don't pick the

1034
00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:18,040
Speaker 1: same number as me. We're gonna work. It's pretty light,

1035
00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:20,399
Speaker 1: but I'm just gonna really shore. Yeah, shade it in there,

1036
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:22,600
Speaker 1: and then we'll show to the camera. We now have

1037
00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:25,000
Speaker 1: whiteboards courtesy of worked really well before I did my

1038
00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:27,040
Speaker 1: stupid s design on the corner. And now it's Johnny

1039
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:29,800
Speaker 1: stats all right, ready, yep, go I got five, I

1040
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:33,080
Speaker 1: got seven. Oh well that's great. Nice love that perfect

1041
00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,200
Speaker 1: Not the same number, so we're over under six. We

1042
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:38,839
Speaker 1: got the giraffe in this corner. There we go, all right, six,

1043
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:40,400
Speaker 1: we are screwed. We don't know what to do if

1044
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:42,480
Speaker 1: they're six. Six is another? Even is another?

1045
00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:45,640
Speaker 2: Like the alexis da situation in Pitch.

1046
00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:47,400
Speaker 1: We held that one. We really we like to make

1047
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:48,800
Speaker 1: this thing as difficult as possible.

1048
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:51,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, by the way, Mark, how was the Toxedo experience?

1049
00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,000
Speaker 5: I didn't even see you on opening day? Really, I

1050
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:55,920
Speaker 5: saw you quickly like the in passing. Everyone around here

1051
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:57,239
Speaker 5: was very busy, so I was not trying to get

1052
00:39:57,280 --> 00:39:59,319
Speaker 5: anybody's way. But uh yeah, I mean it was great.

1053
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:01,520
Speaker 1: It was cool. It was not a punishment by any means.

1054
00:40:01,560 --> 00:40:03,719
Speaker 1: I got great pictures that it was fun, looked looked

1055
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:05,920
Speaker 1: killer in it. I mean it was a good day.

1056
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:06,600
Speaker 1: It was a good day.

1057
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 2: I'm glad it worked out on the Mets one.

1058
00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:08,759
Speaker 1: That's even better.

1059
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:10,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, you texted saying you had no like you couldn't

1060
00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:13,080
Speaker 5: figure it out, And I was like, I almost.

1061
00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:14,920
Speaker 1: Watched it because I did not go and get my

1062
00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:18,640
Speaker 1: tuxedo like shirt the undershirt pressed or try clean, so

1063
00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:20,840
Speaker 1: it was very wrinkly. So I threw it in the

1064
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:23,320
Speaker 1: washer with what I was told is a damp towel.

1065
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:25,399
Speaker 1: Put it in with damn towel and steam it in there.

1066
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:27,600
Speaker 1: And then I steamed it myself and then ironed it

1067
00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:28,359
Speaker 1: myself as well.

1068
00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:28,759
Speaker 2: And it came out.

1069
00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:31,479
Speaker 1: No one could No one would have known. That's a good.

1070
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,040
Speaker 2: Job by me. There, you go, great job. Players make plays.

1071
00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:36,560
Speaker 1: Players make plays. Let's see if I ever have to

1072
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:38,440
Speaker 1: return this tuxedo that is going to be the new

1073
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:40,840
Speaker 1: problem this week that James doesn't have to deal with exactly.

1074
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:43,520
Speaker 1: I'm very happy with that Padre series. Now let's go

1075
00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:45,879
Speaker 1: ahead and talk about this one. Pitching previews, James would

1076
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:48,600
Speaker 1: are matchups. Batchups are going to be Max Sure versus

1077
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:52,560
Speaker 1: you Darvish Monday Night, and then David Peterson versus Ryan

1078
00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:55,800
Speaker 1: Weather's Tuesday Night, okay, and then the Padres haven't officially

1079
00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:58,000
Speaker 1: named they started their for Wednesday, but the way their

1080
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:00,440
Speaker 1: their rotation lines up, that looks like it's gonna be

1081
00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:03,120
Speaker 1: Tydler McGill versus Blake Snell Wednesday, Matt and Ett. I

1082
00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:05,400
Speaker 1: want no comments on how Blake Smell has been pitching.

1083
00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:08,640
Speaker 1: I have no comments. Just take what it is, singular

1084
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:10,040
Speaker 1: comment about how he's pitched so far.

1085
00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:10,520
Speaker 4: This year.

1086
00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:13,160
Speaker 1: We'll say we saw that. Like tickets are like pretty

1087
00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:15,279
Speaker 1: cheap right now, Like you should you should be coming

1088
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:17,120
Speaker 1: out to the game. The weathers look pretty good this

1089
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:18,719
Speaker 1: way as you can as long as you can make

1090
00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:20,920
Speaker 1: it out here still pass over. Kids are in school,

1091
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:23,279
Speaker 1: but come see the new scoreboard. Yeah, I think also

1092
00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:26,520
Speaker 1: people might be on spring break, maybe a little late

1093
00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:28,520
Speaker 1: spring break. I don't know. I don't know what the

1094
00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:30,080
Speaker 1: what the children do, but you should come out to

1095
00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:32,360
Speaker 1: a game, especially maybe tomorrow night with sures are at Darvish,

1096
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:34,440
Speaker 1: Like that's that's the pretty pitch. That's one of the

1097
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:35,920
Speaker 1: best picture matchup you're gonna able to see in a

1098
00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:39,440
Speaker 1: baseball game all year. And we also, I mean, you

1099
00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:41,520
Speaker 1: could get your Buck Cup. You can get your Buck

1100
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:43,560
Speaker 1: Cup if you ever needed a reason to come the

1101
00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:46,759
Speaker 1: Buck Show, Walter Cup. You need this in your house.

1102
00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:50,160
Speaker 1: You need this in your house. I think fluid in here.

1103
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:52,400
Speaker 1: It's gonna be definitely weird having the Padres back in

1104
00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:55,279
Speaker 1: here so soon after last year's playoff series. I think

1105
00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:58,160
Speaker 1: that's very crazy. That can I say this like I

1106
00:41:58,239 --> 00:42:00,200
Speaker 1: want to absolutely destroy them. Well, I think, well, I

1107
00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:02,080
Speaker 1: think after what's gone on the last year and a

1108
00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:04,440
Speaker 1: half is becoming a bothering rivalry little wit not to

1109
00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:06,320
Speaker 1: say I think, I truly don't think it seems like

1110
00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:08,400
Speaker 1: each other. Even going back, going all the way back

1111
00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:10,640
Speaker 1: to Chris Pattick and Pete A. Lonzo, Padres fans are

1112
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:12,479
Speaker 1: getting a little too big for their bridges, a little

1113
00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:14,080
Speaker 1: a little bit too loud for a team that hasn't

1114
00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:15,920
Speaker 1: done anything either. We think about the Padres is that

1115
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:18,360
Speaker 1: the Padres are like the Padres are like pa like

1116
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:20,120
Speaker 1: that guy you see at the gym and he's got

1117
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:23,560
Speaker 1: the popcorn muscles, means he's like completely chested and armed

1118
00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:25,160
Speaker 1: down and then you can and you keep looking at

1119
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:26,960
Speaker 1: his body and you look down You're like, oh my god,

1120
00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:29,120
Speaker 1: Like this guy has like chicken legs. Yeah, Like it's

1121
00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:35,200
Speaker 1: like a John Baron. That's a personal shot. And I

1122
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:38,320
Speaker 1: knew you were going to go there, of course somewhere,

1123
00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:41,000
Speaker 1: but like you're like, wow, man, the wan so though,

1124
00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:44,200
Speaker 1: Sandra Bogars and you're like Austin Nola Ruben of the door,

1125
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:45,880
Speaker 1: what's happening here?

1126
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:48,440
Speaker 2: Hi France man. I wish they probably had wish they

1127
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 2: had that one.

1128
00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:53,560
Speaker 1: Back, Yes, would also still be on that that would

1129
00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:57,120
Speaker 1: be huge for them Uh, there's definitely some like actual

1130
00:42:57,160 --> 00:42:59,480
Speaker 1: holes holes though in this team. Like you said, yeah,

1131
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:01,680
Speaker 1: it's just a popcor must be fair. Those holes were

1132
00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:03,640
Speaker 1: also what kind of killed us in the playoffs a

1133
00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:06,640
Speaker 1: little bit like Grisham and Hassong Kim and Austin Nola.

1134
00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:09,840
Speaker 1: Definitely don't disrespect any of that. I don't mention I

1135
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:12,319
Speaker 1: think player I know, but there's gonna be Mets fans

1136
00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:15,080
Speaker 1: out there like and understandably so who don't aren't hip

1137
00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:17,239
Speaker 1: to Hassung Kim. Yeah, Kim is one of the lowest

1138
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:19,080
Speaker 1: chase rates in all of baseball so far. Play ye,

1139
00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:20,239
Speaker 1: he's gonna make a lot of good players in the

1140
00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:23,200
Speaker 1: infield too. And just we want so those Ander Bogart's

1141
00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:25,320
Speaker 1: mancha that are three of the twenty best hitters in

1142
00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:27,320
Speaker 1: the entire league. Glad we get to miss Brnano Tatis.

1143
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:30,600
Speaker 1: Yeah pretty cool that guy. When that lineup is really

1144
00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:33,879
Speaker 1: fully going, I think we right before the All Star break,

1145
00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:35,719
Speaker 1: we head out of San Diego. Okay, we'll see them then,

1146
00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:37,480
Speaker 1: may make a San Diego trip for the boys. I

1147
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:39,239
Speaker 1: got a bachelor part that weekend, all right, Well, I'll

1148
00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:41,480
Speaker 1: go by myself then may go hang out Sandy I

1149
00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:43,200
Speaker 1: don't need you. They'll go meet in Seattle. Yeah, then

1150
00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:45,319
Speaker 1: we'll go meet in Seattle for the All Star Game. Uh,

1151
00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:48,520
Speaker 1: Peterson Weathers two young left handed pitchers going up against

1152
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:51,160
Speaker 1: each other. Interesting. I guess I don't know Ryan Weathers

1153
00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:53,480
Speaker 1: the picture doesn't. I mean, he's just like he's has

1154
00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:55,640
Speaker 1: good results sometimes, but it's just like gets there in

1155
00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:58,959
Speaker 1: a weird way, son of former Met David Weathers. David

1156
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:01,919
Speaker 1: Weathers what like oh for Mets? I think three or four?

1157
00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:03,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, Nickna Storming.

1158
00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:05,480
Speaker 1: I feel like he got moving in a game in

1159
00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 1: Cincinnati once. I don't know why. I remember that. We'll

1160
00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:09,759
Speaker 1: call attention to a player in the Padres bullpen and

1161
00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:11,759
Speaker 1: has been a favorite of mine for years, first because

1162
00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:13,080
Speaker 1: of how much like him as a player and just

1163
00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:16,000
Speaker 1: now secondly because of how much he's persevered. Brent Honeywell

1164
00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:19,200
Speaker 1: has had a litany of injuries over the last five years.

1165
00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:21,439
Speaker 1: He was a former I believe for the first round pick.

1166
00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:25,200
Speaker 1: No uh yeah well, no, no, fourth round, fourth round pick,

1167
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:27,520
Speaker 1: fourth round pick in the twenty fourteen draft. He was

1168
00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:30,879
Speaker 1: drafted the year we graduated high school. To think about

1169
00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:33,880
Speaker 1: how long this has been for Brent honeyweon probably to college.

1170
00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:36,239
Speaker 1: By the way. Yeah no, John, Yeah, yeah, it's been

1171
00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:39,880
Speaker 1: John Star's ARP membership. But Brent Honeywell has been just

1172
00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:41,440
Speaker 1: doing it forever. Started ou with the Rays for a

1173
00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:43,279
Speaker 1: long time. He always had it crazy. It was a

1174
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:45,120
Speaker 1: it was a he might have been a football his

1175
00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:47,279
Speaker 1: big pitch. No, he had screwball. Screwball. That was the

1176
00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:50,600
Speaker 1: football fastball of life. Just arm injury after arm injury

1177
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:52,800
Speaker 1: with the Rays, He's bounced around. Now he finally seems

1178
00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:55,200
Speaker 1: to have found a home in this Padres bullpen. He

1179
00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:58,239
Speaker 1: has struck Outdres using him too. Yeah, he struck out

1180
00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:00,440
Speaker 1: seven seven values and five scooters I think to start

1181
00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:02,400
Speaker 1: the season, only allowed two walks. And he looks he

1182
00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:05,640
Speaker 1: looks pretty okay. Yeah, look looks pretty okay. He does

1183
00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:08,160
Speaker 1: look pretty Okayyu's al almost fell off, like he looks

1184
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:09,360
Speaker 1: pretty okay. I was waiting for you to say it

1185
00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:11,920
Speaker 1: looks pretty good. I wasn't ready for the great it

1186
00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:14,200
Speaker 1: looks pretty okay. Yeah. I mean the Padres are a

1187
00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:15,920
Speaker 1: very good team. This is one of the contenders and

1188
00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:18,400
Speaker 1: in all of baseball. I just would really like to

1189
00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:22,040
Speaker 1: beat them, I at least feel great. I hate them, Yeah,

1190
00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:24,719
Speaker 1: I hate them. I very much hate them. I hate

1191
00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:25,680
Speaker 1: the city of Philadelphia.

1192
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:26,040
Speaker 3: We know that.

1193
00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:27,799
Speaker 1: I hate the Phillies. I love the city of San

1194
00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:29,760
Speaker 1: Diego nothing better. Now I hate the Padres.

1195
00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:33,000
Speaker 2: I really have on your list of hated teams.

1196
00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:35,920
Speaker 1: Uh, not towards the top, oh, I think I think

1197
00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:38,879
Speaker 1: towards the top. I think they're my most hated team.

1198
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,600
Speaker 1: That's not second most hated team, that's not in our

1199
00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:43,440
Speaker 1: division or the ale. I know it's the most hated team.

1200
00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:49,439
Speaker 1: San Louis Cardinals percent never change an organization I respect though, Yeah,

1201
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:51,040
Speaker 1: I respect them so much more in the Padres. That's

1202
00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:52,880
Speaker 1: the other problem. At least they've won. Yeah, the Padres

1203
00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:54,520
Speaker 1: just have to have a credit card with a big limit.

1204
00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:56,279
Speaker 1: They just got their first no hitter like last year,

1205
00:45:56,719 --> 00:45:59,400
Speaker 1: two years ago, two years ago, and that's the Vugaris.

1206
00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:02,680
Speaker 1: But the Cards will just develop players out of a clip. Alarmingly,

1207
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:04,680
Speaker 1: they have like twelve good major league bats on their ross.

1208
00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:06,839
Speaker 1: So the Padres don't develop anybody ever. They just buy

1209
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:07,799
Speaker 1: players and hope it works.

1210
00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:07,920
Speaker 3: This.

1211
00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:10,640
Speaker 1: This is now what like our third or fourth Padres episode.

1212
00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:12,400
Speaker 1: I think every single one we just end up talking

1213
00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:14,680
Speaker 1: trash on the Padres, like for the last like five minutes.

1214
00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:16,360
Speaker 1: I'm glad we're doing it again. Yeah, we're gonna come

1215
00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:18,360
Speaker 1: out and beat them this series. Yeah, they're they're beach community.

1216
00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:21,279
Speaker 1: They can't fight back. They're they're not tough like the

1217
00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:23,440
Speaker 1: New York City New Yorkers in the city. No, put

1218
00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:25,160
Speaker 1: them on the subway the crater.

1219
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:26,040
Speaker 4: Of course.

Speaker 3: Well, the seven Line as a as a like a

1251
00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:34,960
Speaker 3: brain started agetting in two thousand and nine, so we

1252
00:47:35,040 --> 00:47:37,200
Speaker 3: were tailgating, but it wasn't in this lot and it

1253
00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:38,480
Speaker 3: wasn't really established yet.

1254
00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:40,560
Speaker 4: So once the group started in twenty.

1255
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:42,520
Speaker 3: Twelve, that really kind of like started it as being

1256
00:47:42,640 --> 00:47:44,960
Speaker 3: also like hey let's get together and tailgate as well.

1257
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:47,279
Speaker 4: So a long time so twenty.

1258
00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:49,640
Speaker 3: Twelve to now, Yeah, this is my official fifteenth season

1259
00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:50,399
Speaker 3: doing the seven month.

00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:52,319
Speaker 1: Wow, yes, that's incredible. Long time.

1261
00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:58,040
Speaker 4: You guys were like in high school, we're sheltering. Yeah,

1262
00:47:58,120 --> 00:47:59,960
Speaker 4: you guys were young pups and I was out here

1263
00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:01,040
Speaker 4: doing my thing.

1264
00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:02,880
Speaker 1: You know, were you always a big Opening day guy?

1265
00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:03,839
Speaker 1: Even before the seven line?

1266
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:04,520
Speaker 4: Yeah?

1267
00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:06,600
Speaker 3: You know what, Like on my block when I grew up,

1268
00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:08,759
Speaker 3: some kids actually were always able to take off from

1269
00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:10,200
Speaker 3: school to go to Opening Day and I was never

1270
00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:10,800
Speaker 3: able to do that.

1271
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:11,960
Speaker 4: And they weren't even like job.

1272
00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:14,120
Speaker 3: I think they were pretty big Mets fans obviously for

1273
00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:15,759
Speaker 3: taking your kids out of school for Opening Day, but

1274
00:48:16,040 --> 00:48:18,560
Speaker 3: I was never allowed to do that. So uh, once

1275
00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:20,160
Speaker 3: I was out of school, I haven't missed an Opening

1276
00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:20,600
Speaker 3: Day since.

1277
00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:22,799
Speaker 4: So it's yeah, I'm excited about it. I love being here.

Speaker 1: Think it was like a day later because I was

1327
00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:10,880
Speaker 1: looking back through memories. It was literally today that we

1328
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:13,239
Speaker 1: had announced it with Darren, because the day before the

1329
00:50:13,280 --> 00:50:15,120
Speaker 1: season last year, and last year we odo it was

1330
00:50:15,160 --> 00:50:16,879
Speaker 1: two days ago. Today was the day the mess actually

1331
00:50:16,880 --> 00:50:19,520
Speaker 1: reached out to us. The sixth we partnered with Darren

1332
00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:20,320
Speaker 1: officially the fifth.

1333
00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:22,719
Speaker 4: You know, I got an eye for talent, you know,

1334
00:50:23,239 --> 00:50:24,080
Speaker 4: you know what's going on, But.

1335
00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:26,719
Speaker 1: Today's the seven. Yeah. I was asking, like doing your

1336
00:50:27,040 --> 00:50:29,160
Speaker 1: stuff independently and then getting reached out to by the

1337
00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:30,520
Speaker 1: team and being able to partner up with them.

1338
00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:31,200
Speaker 4: How's that you know?

1339
00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:34,400
Speaker 3: Feel well, it's nuts too because that opening day and

1340
00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:36,319
Speaker 3: well that end of two thousand andine I started making

1341
00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:39,000
Speaker 3: the shirt. So twenty ten was our official first like

1342
00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:41,239
Speaker 3: tailgate with friends, which I could see from here while

1343
00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:43,000
Speaker 3: I used to park my pickup truck. So like the

1344
00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:45,960
Speaker 3: first ever shirts were sold out of my backpack, right dang.

1345
00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:48,120
Speaker 3: And now it's like, you know, you see what it

1346
00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:50,879
Speaker 3: turned into. So it's crazy too because like I feel

1347
00:50:50,880 --> 00:50:52,759
Speaker 3: like when I talk like that, some fans might be like, oh,

1348
00:50:52,880 --> 00:50:55,440
Speaker 3: this guy, you know, he's all by himself or he's

1349
00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:56,319
Speaker 3: sold out or whatever.

1350
00:50:56,680 --> 00:50:57,239
Speaker 4: Now it's like.

1351
00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:00,480
Speaker 3: I feel like, you know, the top are turning a

1352
00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:02,040
Speaker 3: little bit when people be like, oh, you know he

1353
00:51:02,120 --> 00:51:05,600
Speaker 3: works hard. It's something that you know was built from

1354
00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:07,920
Speaker 3: like you know, the parking lot to hear, So I

1355
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:08,840
Speaker 3: don't know it is what it is.

1356
00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:10,880
Speaker 4: But yeah, it's it's it's a crazy feeling to have, you.

1357
00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:13,440
Speaker 3: Know, the official logos on things, you know, like our

1358
00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:15,680
Speaker 3: logos here, mets are on the sleeve. So it's it's

1359
00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:17,359
Speaker 3: crazy if you told me this in two thousand and nine,

1360
00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:19,520
Speaker 3: where we'd be now, even though it is a long time.

1361
00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:22,200
Speaker 4: From from then to now, it's it's always a pinch

1362
00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:23,600
Speaker 4: me moment, you know it was did you.

1363
00:51:23,640 --> 00:51:25,319
Speaker 1: Ever think that it was like like when you first

1364
00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:27,359
Speaker 1: started relike I want to work with the metal where

1365
00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:28,160
Speaker 1: you're just like it's just like fun.

1366
00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:29,920
Speaker 3: I didn't even think it was impossible, you know, like

1367
00:51:30,680 --> 00:51:32,640
Speaker 3: it was like, hey, you know, how can I make

1368
00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:34,439
Speaker 3: some shirts and sell them and go to more Mets games?

1369
00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:36,799
Speaker 3: And that was the entire basis of not ever having

1370
00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:38,680
Speaker 3: like a real job. You know it it's hard work,

1371
00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:40,360
Speaker 3: but it's not like I didn't work for anyone. I

1372
00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:42,759
Speaker 3: just built it to what it became. But the whole

1373
00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:45,080
Speaker 3: idea was going to more Mets games and how can

1374
00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:47,759
Speaker 3: I make money to you know, do something I love.

1375
00:51:48,200 --> 00:51:52,040
Speaker 4: But yeah, seeing it turn into this no way, but honestly.

1376
00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:53,080
Speaker 3: And then I want to you know, this is a

1377
00:51:53,120 --> 00:51:54,400
Speaker 3: Mets thing too, but I don't want to, you.

1378
00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:55,440
Speaker 4: Know, poop on the team at all.

1379
00:51:55,480 --> 00:51:57,600
Speaker 3: But the reason why I feel like it got the

1380
00:51:57,719 --> 00:51:58,960
Speaker 3: extra boost was because the.

1381
00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:02,160
Speaker 4: Mets stunk playing the seven line started. And if there's

1382
00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:04,920
Speaker 4: a guy willing to buy a thousand tickets, yeah.

1383
00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:06,800
Speaker 3: Like you don't want this guy to go away, you know,

1384
00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:09,120
Speaker 3: it's kind of where it was convenient timing, and you know,

1385
00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:11,640
Speaker 3: it's just funny and a lot of you know, there's

1386
00:52:11,640 --> 00:52:13,759
Speaker 3: a lot of people that have been in the ballpark, Mets,

1387
00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:16,480
Speaker 3: you know, Mets staff and you know upper you know

1388
00:52:16,600 --> 00:52:19,239
Speaker 3: management that said helped progress this into what it became.

1389
00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:22,000
Speaker 3: You know, it's still one hundred percent phone by me,

1390
00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:24,279
Speaker 3: which is great, that's awesome, you know, and not a

1391
00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:26,560
Speaker 3: lot of companies can say that they you know, took

1392
00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:28,319
Speaker 3: the next step without having to give up a portion

1393
00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:31,200
Speaker 3: of their business. You know. So it's for the time being,

1394
00:52:31,239 --> 00:52:33,279
Speaker 3: I don't know what I'm going to retire, but it's

1395
00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:35,080
Speaker 3: it's a tough job to retire from, you know.

1396
00:52:35,160 --> 00:52:37,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's almost like it's like a never retire job.

1397
00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:39,560
Speaker 4: Out on a.

1398
00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:43,040

Speaker 1: How you're wearing the schooz you're two of the most famous.

1403
00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:53,759
Speaker 1: What is your favorite piece of merch seven lines ever sold?

1404
00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:57,080
Speaker 3: That's a tough question to answer because there's some uh,

1405
00:52:57,560 --> 00:53:00,640
Speaker 3: some products that are more than just like make something cool.

1406
00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:02,600
Speaker 4: It's like, you know, it's a meeting behind it. Like

1407
00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:04,560
Speaker 4: we did some work with the Gary Carter.

1408
00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:06,600
Speaker 3: Foundation a long time ago. So when Gary passed away.

1409
00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:09,360
Speaker 3: Before he passed away, we made a shirt with a

1410
00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:12,440
Speaker 3: few friends. It was a block called read the Apple

1411
00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:14,720
Speaker 3: and on the Black. So we all teamed up together

1412
00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:16,799
Speaker 3: to make a shirt that said that we love your kid,

1413
00:53:17,120 --> 00:53:18,839
Speaker 3: and all the proceeds from that went to the Gary

1414
00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:19,560
Speaker 3: Carter Foundation.

1415
00:53:19,920 --> 00:53:22,920
Speaker 4: And then unfortunately, when Gary passed, we reached back out to.

1416
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:24,480
Speaker 3: The foundation and say, hey, we're gonna come up with

1417
00:53:24,480 --> 00:53:26,319
Speaker 3: another T shirt and donate it all.

1418
00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:27,319
Speaker 2: So it's eight.

1419
00:53:27,440 --> 00:53:29,000
Speaker 4: It was an eight just to solid eate with a

1420
00:53:29,040 --> 00:53:32,520
Speaker 4: tear drop. You guys may have seen it and we raised.

1421
00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:34,040
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't want to be.

1422
00:53:34,040 --> 00:53:35,239
Speaker 3: Wrong with the number, but I know it was over

1423
00:53:35,360 --> 00:53:37,759
Speaker 3: ten thousand dollars out of that one T shirt design

1424
00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:40,319
Speaker 3: and Johann wore it every day underneath his jersey when

1425
00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:43,960
Speaker 3: you pit. Really yeah, John opening day and I don't know,

1426
00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:45,840
Speaker 3: I can't remember the year. I don't want to misspeak,

1427
00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:48,840
Speaker 3: but whatever year it was, he went first press conference

1428
00:53:48,880 --> 00:53:51,040
Speaker 3: afterwards and he was wearing it, and you know, I

1429
00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:53,000
Speaker 3: guess through the grapevine, I found out he was always

1430
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:54,759
Speaker 3: wearing it underneath his jersey. So like things like that

1431
00:53:54,880 --> 00:53:57,200
Speaker 3: are stand out more than like, you know, the tweed hat.

1432
00:53:57,320 --> 00:54:00,200
Speaker 3: Like people here like when's that coming back? Like that,

1433
00:54:00,320 --> 00:54:02,160
Speaker 3: it's cool to have something like that that people were

1434
00:54:02,239 --> 00:54:05,200
Speaker 3: really you know, like hoping to buy one day when

1435
00:54:05,200 --> 00:54:07,080
Speaker 3: it comes back, But like something that has more meaning

1436
00:54:07,160 --> 00:54:08,320
Speaker 3: behind it means more to me.

1437
00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:10,680
Speaker 1: You know, how does it feel to see like one

1438
00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:12,879
Speaker 1: of the Mets players wearing your h It's nuts?

1439
00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:14,840
Speaker 4: Well, you know, it's crazy. When I first started, I

1440
00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:17,320
Speaker 4: became friendly with justin turning down its fring training.

1441
00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:20,000
Speaker 3: And then it was before some of the guys got

1442
00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:22,279
Speaker 3: brought up yet, like you know Harvey, I don't think

1443
00:54:22,280 --> 00:54:23,880
Speaker 3: he was called up yet when I first met Turner

1444
00:54:24,280 --> 00:54:26,359
Speaker 3: or we're at Duffy's and back when they still used

1445
00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:27,799
Speaker 3: to bowl on the Sunday nights when the whole team

1446
00:54:27,840 --> 00:54:28,279
Speaker 3: would be there.

1447
00:54:28,400 --> 00:54:30,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, and at the time, I was still doing that.

1448
00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:33,200
Speaker 3: Calendar where like the girls would try out or whatever,

1449
00:54:33,840 --> 00:54:36,440
Speaker 3: and Turner introduced me to some of the guys like

1450
00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:37,920
Speaker 3: this is Darren you eveone just think all the Simon

1451
00:54:37,920 --> 00:54:38,759
Speaker 3: and they're like that's cool.

1452
00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:41,360
Speaker 4: And he's like, oh he does that calendar like oh.

1453
00:54:42,719 --> 00:54:42,919
Speaker 1: Out.

1454
00:54:43,080 --> 00:54:45,720
Speaker 3: You know it was cool, but uh yeah for the players,

1455
00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:48,600
Speaker 3: it's like, you know, to start becoming on like first

1456
00:54:48,640 --> 00:54:50,080
Speaker 3: name basis with a lot of guys, it's cool. And

1457
00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:51,680
Speaker 3: I think like the way, I'm sure you guys like

1458
00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:54,160
Speaker 3: this too, Like if you don't like fangirl too hard,

1459
00:54:54,520 --> 00:54:56,400
Speaker 3: it's like they're they're more willing to kind of like

1460
00:54:56,520 --> 00:54:58,680
Speaker 3: pool with you, you know, like I'm not asking players

1461
00:54:58,760 --> 00:55:00,720
Speaker 3: for photographs or selfie or whatever.

1462
00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:03,200
Speaker 4: I mean I want to. Yeah, so you got to

1463
00:55:03,280 --> 00:55:05,239
Speaker 4: you got to play cool. But I think it also

1464
00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:05,680
Speaker 4: became a.

1465
00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:07,120
Speaker 3: Fact that it's like I'm older than them too, so

1466
00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:08,839
Speaker 3: it's like, oh, this guy's just been around the block,

1467
00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:11,960
Speaker 3: you know. But yeah, so I would text like Turner,

1468
00:55:12,280 --> 00:55:13,880
Speaker 3: you know, through the years, like when he left, like

1469
00:55:13,960 --> 00:55:15,879
Speaker 3: other guys, they'd meet me right at the side door

1470
00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:17,680
Speaker 3: of the ball like I I would hand them boxes

1471
00:55:17,719 --> 00:55:20,760
Speaker 3: of shirts and they distribute them. And sometimes the players

1472
00:55:20,800 --> 00:55:23,359
Speaker 3: would be like I remember someone I don't know who's Nemo.

1473
00:55:23,440 --> 00:55:24,960
Speaker 3: Was someone in the beginning like hey, where'd you get

1474
00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:27,319
Speaker 3: the shirt? And the guy and I think it was Nemo.

1475
00:55:27,360 --> 00:55:28,759
Speaker 3: He's like I was just in my locker. I don't know,

1476
00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:31,759
Speaker 3: like put it on, you know, but yeah, it's it's crazy, man,

1477
00:55:31,840 --> 00:55:33,160
Speaker 3: It's it's it's a wild ride.

1478
00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:36,120
Speaker 4: I thoroughly enjoy it, as you probably can see, and

1479
00:55:36,160 --> 00:55:36,759
Speaker 4: it's it's fun.

1480
00:55:36,880 --> 00:55:39,080
Speaker 1: Do things like that still happen with players connections given

1481
00:55:39,080 --> 00:55:39,960
Speaker 1: merchandise and stuff?

1482
00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:42,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, if you look on Edwin Diaz a story last

1483
00:55:42,239 --> 00:55:44,000
Speaker 3: night on Instagram. I mailed him a box of shirts

1484
00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:47,160
Speaker 3: because like when the we don't technically need players permission

1485
00:55:47,160 --> 00:55:49,000
Speaker 3: anymore to make player stuff, which is kind of weird,

1486
00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:50,759
Speaker 3: Like I can make an Edwind shirt without asking him.

1487
00:55:51,560 --> 00:55:53,399
Speaker 3: But back in the day before the license, like when

1488
00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:55,040
Speaker 3: we did stuff with Dicky, I would ask Dicky, hey

1489
00:55:55,160 --> 00:55:56,960
Speaker 3: is this cool? But now since we have a deal

1490
00:55:57,040 --> 00:55:59,600
Speaker 3: with MLBPA, we kind of just run our ideas through them.

1491
00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:02,680
Speaker 3: But like last night, because clearly that Edwin ds T

1492
00:56:02,760 --> 00:56:05,439
Speaker 3: shirt with the trumpet was designed before he got hurt.

1493
00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:07,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, so I hit him up, Hey do you like this?

1494
00:56:07,680 --> 00:56:10,560
Speaker 3: He's like, oh, it's awesome or whatever. So I asked him,

1495
00:56:10,680 --> 00:56:12,040
Speaker 3: you know, what size do you want? Where can I

1496
00:56:12,080 --> 00:56:14,399
Speaker 3: mail him? I guess he I mailed him here, Yeah,

1497
00:56:14,640 --> 00:56:17,719
Speaker 3: so uh he's here, So I guess he saw them

1498
00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:18,239
Speaker 3: last night and.

1499
00:56:18,320 --> 00:56:19,640
Speaker 4: He put it on his story, so it's.

1500
00:56:19,520 --> 00:56:21,560
Speaker 1: Like that's cool. You know, that's really cool. It's also

1501
00:56:21,840 --> 00:56:24,200
Speaker 1: so funny, like dating yourself with these mess players. You're

1502
00:56:24,239 --> 00:56:27,800
Speaker 1: talking about Turner taking before Harvey came up. Yeah, Like

1503
00:56:27,880 --> 00:56:29,719
Speaker 1: that just shows like the longevity you've had with this

1504
00:56:29,880 --> 00:56:30,680
Speaker 1: unbelievable one of the.

1505
00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:32,440
Speaker 4: Like one of my most surprized possessions.

1506
00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:35,960
Speaker 3: I feel like as back when Dylan g was still

1507
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:37,800
Speaker 3: with the team, I was again, I was giving the

1508
00:56:37,840 --> 00:56:39,719
Speaker 3: guy's boxes of stuff. And I was also really cool

1509
00:56:39,760 --> 00:56:40,960
Speaker 3: like the wives too, So like if the wives were

1510
00:56:41,080 --> 00:56:43,240
Speaker 3: anything anything, I'm like, of course, like yeah, and everyone's

1511
00:56:43,239 --> 00:56:43,600
Speaker 3: always so.

1512
00:56:43,680 --> 00:56:44,279
Speaker 4: Like what do I owe you?

1513
00:56:44,360 --> 00:56:46,880
Speaker 3: It was like nothing, you'll owe me anything, like you

1514
00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:49,080
Speaker 3: know you you know, even even you guys wearing this

1515
00:56:49,120 --> 00:56:49,719
Speaker 3: stuff is cool.

1516
00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:51,839
Speaker 4: You know it helps obviously business, but like it's such

1517
00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:55,120
Speaker 4: a cool connection. But I was in my seat and

1518
00:56:55,200 --> 00:56:55,640
Speaker 4: something from the.

1519
00:56:55,680 --> 00:56:56,920
Speaker 3: Mats I can't remember who it was, was like, hey,

1520
00:56:56,960 --> 00:56:58,680
Speaker 3: where they got a text where he's sitting. It's like, well,

1521
00:56:58,719 --> 00:57:00,400
Speaker 3: I was in the same spot, but like this is

1522
00:57:00,440 --> 00:57:03,239
Speaker 3: my seat, you know, one for one row, one seat,

1523
00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:05,000
Speaker 3: one like come on down, and they brought me a

1524
00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:06,160
Speaker 3: team signed ball from.

1525
00:57:06,280 --> 00:57:08,200

1527
00:57:08,960 --> 00:57:09,279

1529
00:57:11,520 --> 00:57:12,000
Speaker 1: It's awesome.

1530
00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:14,600
Speaker 3: So it's like getting that is like so cool because

1531
00:57:14,600 --> 00:57:16,560
Speaker 3: it's not something you could, like you can't buy that.

1532
00:57:16,640 --> 00:57:18,200
Speaker 4: You can't go to like a card show and get

1533
00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:20,080
Speaker 4: like T one oh one. That's like, yeah, that's cool.

1534
00:57:20,160 --> 00:57:21,040
Speaker 4: So that's great.

1535
00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:23,200
Speaker 1: You had Steve Cohen sitting with you in Miami.

1536
00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:25,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, like how is that?

1537
00:57:25,160 --> 00:57:26,640
Speaker 1: How do you how do you react to all the fans?

1538
00:57:26,720 --> 00:57:28,200
Speaker 1: How is how did the fans react to him?

1539
00:57:28,320 --> 00:57:30,000
Speaker 4: I was like he was like the Beatles in like

1540
00:57:30,080 --> 00:57:32,360
Speaker 4: the six five and Sha Stadium. Man, it was nuts.

1541
00:57:32,400 --> 00:57:34,439
Speaker 4: But like, yeah, I knew about that for a couple

1542
00:57:34,440 --> 00:57:35,600
Speaker 4: of weeks, so like, yeah it was.

1543
00:57:35,800 --> 00:57:37,440
Speaker 3: I got a text from someone at the Mats and say,

1544
00:57:37,440 --> 00:57:39,120
Speaker 3: hey can we talk for a second, and like, hey,

1545
00:57:39,160 --> 00:57:41,240
Speaker 3: what do you think about Steve coming down to the tailgate?

1546
00:57:41,280 --> 00:57:42,360
Speaker 4: And I was like, I don't know about the tailgate.

1547
00:57:42,360 --> 00:57:44,480
Speaker 4: He didn't get mobbed, but he comes to the seats.

1548
00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:46,360
Speaker 3: It might be a little bit more better reaction where

1549
00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:48,080
Speaker 3: people aren't gonna like, you know, like I was saying,

1550
00:57:48,080 --> 00:57:50,960
Speaker 3: about fangirling. Yeah, but I totally understand why. You know,

1551
00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:52,560
Speaker 3: fans love him, so they wanted to get to, you know,

1552
00:57:52,600 --> 00:57:54,760
Speaker 3: as close as they can. But for the first half,

1553
00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:56,240
Speaker 3: in the end he was like the bottom of the fourth,

1554
00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:57,040
Speaker 3: the top of the fourth.

1555
00:57:57,240 --> 00:57:57,680
Speaker 2: It was fine.

1556
00:57:57,800 --> 00:57:59,720
Speaker 4: He came and sat me, just chilled and talked to whatever.

1557
00:58:00,120 --> 00:58:02,000
Speaker 3: Than in between anything's one person to open up the

1558
00:58:02,040 --> 00:58:03,440
Speaker 3: box and being like can I get a selfie? And

1559
00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:06,800
Speaker 3: then it was like, luckily he had security with the

1560
00:58:07,400 --> 00:58:10,600
Speaker 3: service and yeah, seriously. So at one point he took

1561
00:58:10,640 --> 00:58:11,960
Speaker 3: to me and he's like, we're watching the game, right.

1562
00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:13,840
Speaker 3: I was like, I would like to, but so he

1563
00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:16,880
Speaker 3: really hung like a fullaming you know. But it was phenomenal.

1564
00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:20,000
Speaker 1: You know, that's awesome, Darren. We know you're busy today.

1565
00:58:20,720 --> 00:58:21,560
Speaker 4: I would talk all day.

1566
00:58:21,880 --> 00:58:24,560
Speaker 1: I have one more question, more question. Do you think

1567
00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:26,040
Speaker 1: that's the last time Steve Cohen is gonna sit with

1568
00:58:26,080 --> 00:58:26,520
Speaker 1: the seven Line?

1569
00:58:26,560 --> 00:58:28,720
Speaker 3: I mean, I have him on camera saying that he

1570
00:58:28,800 --> 00:58:30,360
Speaker 3: wants to sit with us more often, so we'll see.

1571
00:58:30,520 --> 00:58:32,120
Speaker 3: I reached out to the Mets after and I'm like, hey,

1572
00:58:32,200 --> 00:58:34,040
Speaker 3: maybe we do something where we always do a road

1573
00:58:34,080 --> 00:58:34,920
Speaker 3: downing for opening day.

1574
00:58:35,320 --> 00:58:37,360

00:58:37,400 --> 00:58:38,520

Speaker 1: my stuff, like ever since I started, and I mean

1594
00:59:16,320 --> 00:59:18,760

1595
00:59:18,840 --> 00:59:21,080
Speaker 1: like the day before we announced that we partnered up

1596

Speaker 1: was like, dude, that's awesome, Like it's incredible, go for it.

1601
00:59:31,320 --> 00:59:33,080
Speaker 1: Just also peak behind the curtain. We were hilariously really

1602
00:59:33,080 --> 00:59:34,960
Speaker 1: stressed out about that conversation with him, Like I was

1603
00:59:35,040 --> 00:59:36,760
Speaker 1: really scared to like offend him because he was like

1604
00:59:36,800 --> 00:59:38,120
Speaker 1: really nice to us and was like really trying to

1605
00:59:38,160 --> 00:59:39,800
Speaker 1: bring us along. And then immediately we were like thanks

1606
00:59:39,840 --> 00:59:42,680

1607
00:59:42,720 --> 00:59:44,520
Speaker 1: We're gon, we're out of here. But he was like,

1608
00:59:44,640 --> 00:59:46,400
Speaker 1: he's the absolute man. If you have a chance to

1609
00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:47,840
Speaker 1: ever go sit with the seven line out of a game,

1610
00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:50,640
Speaker 1: you should. It's so much fun even just go to

1611
00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:52,920
Speaker 1: a tailgate. Can't recommend it more. It's like one of

1612
00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:55,800
Speaker 1: my better YouTube blogs I've ever done hanging out with them.

1613
00:59:56,080 --> 00:59:57,760
Speaker 1: You were weirdly at the game too, when Luiski or

1614
00:59:57,800 --> 00:59:59,640
Speaker 1: May hit that big home run against the Washington National.

1615
01:00:00,400 --> 01:00:02,080
Speaker 1: If I had the Twitter following then that would have

1616
01:00:02,160 --> 01:00:04,120
Speaker 1: I would have had a third child named Luise. Yeah,

1617
01:00:04,360 --> 01:00:06,560
Speaker 1: that would have been the first child. Yeah, Louise. It

1618
01:00:06,560 --> 01:00:09,439
Speaker 1: would have been Louise Patrick and Albert that's a good mix. Yeah,

1619
01:00:09,520 --> 01:00:11,240
Speaker 1: that's on a good infield right there. That is Louise

1620
01:00:11,280 --> 01:00:13,600
Speaker 1: Patrick Alberts the first basement of course, of course. Yeah,

1621
01:00:13,640 --> 01:00:16,240
