56
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 2: to show up, what time, all of that. All right,

57
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:57,520
Speaker 2: let's charge big bounce back series for the Bronx Bombers.

58
00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 2: They sweep the Mariners. They were gotting no hit and

59
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 2: then all of a sudden they figured out that bullpen

60
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 2: including Andre's munos, little tip action going on. It was

61
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:08,800
Speaker 2: incredible what happened.

62
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 4: Listen, This wasn't the first time I've seen the the

63
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 4: arm movement there at second base, Like I I've.

64
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:16,360
Speaker 3: Never seen that before.

65
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,399
Speaker 4: Usually, when you have a tip, like you let one

66
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 4: arm hang, you let the right arm hang, you touch

67
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 4: your helmet you know, you stand still, and they were

68
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,639
Speaker 4: they were like, let's let let it, let it be known.

69
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 3: It was late too.

70
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 4: I don't know what you're do in that situation because

71
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 4: they're not showing signs, you know, so it's like he

72
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 4: must be getting it from behind. I still don't know

73
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 4: how they found it. I didn't really look into it

74
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 4: that much. But you know, those arms are moving at

75
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 4: second base and oh god, it's incredible.

76
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 2: Have you seen that?

77
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 3: No, I've never seen that.

78
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 2: Like because usually okay, just to explain to people, so

79
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 2: you've got who is that on that on that call

80
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 2: at second base?

81
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 3: That was Grisham, so trank.

82
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 2: Grisham's that second base crat and he is not being

83
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 2: subtle to indicate to the batter what pitch is being

84
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 2: thrown by Andres Munos. I mean they're doing it almost

85
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 2: like you're looking for someone in the crowd and you're like, hey,

86
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 2: I'm over here. Usually it's like some very subtle sign

87
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 2: right that you get to your teammate to not make

88
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 2: it obvious. So what did you think of this approach?

89
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,159
Speaker 2: And do you think this could be more common in

90
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 2: the game where players are just like screwed. I don't

91
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 2: care I'm just gonna tell the guy what I know.

92
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 1: Well, who did it before? Was that Patrick Bailey did

93
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 1: it to Pavetta. I'm not sure who was at second,

94
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 1: but he was like he was just like he was

95
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 1: just like looking over over his like and then he

96
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 1: would he would signal. So I don't. I don't. That's

97
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 1: why when I watched it live and I know I've

98
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 1: read different things about it, and I'm still not like

99
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,719
Speaker 1: for me, it's not conclusive what they were doing or

100
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 1: what they saw exactly, because somebody was saying that you know,

101
00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 1: they were getting information from first two they could see it,

102
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 1: but they said like in in game. I told my son,

103
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 1: I was like, why would they be that obvious? Like

104
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 1: why would you have it? And you're that obvious? Except

105
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 1: that it was so linked. So if maybe the first

106
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 1: baseman because if you look, Munnos had his glove like

107
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 1: this and he was really tucked. Obviously over there is

108
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: the second baseman. He was really tucked, but I think

109
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 1: it was farther back here. So now behind me is

110
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,280
Speaker 1: the runner on first. So if it's a runner on

111
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 1: first and a runner on second, could the runner on

112
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 1: first be relaying it to the runner on second, who

113
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 1: then is relaying it to the hitter because with lefties

114
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,159
Speaker 1: up it's hard for them. You can't see what a

115
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 1: guy on first is doing. But if you can see

116
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:58,360
Speaker 1: it from first because they're looking over the shoulder, possibly

117
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:00,480
Speaker 1: that's where I was at. But I mean Muon was

118
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:04,719
Speaker 1: digging deep in there. As a catcher, you can't do anything.

119
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 1: You're sitting there like, oh crap. They totally have the

120
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 1: pitches and he's not throwing strikes. It's like a double whammie.

121
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,839
Speaker 1: I can't. It's not like we can change our signs.

122
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 3: He was.

123
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 1: He was up a creek right there.

124
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 2: You can change pictures.

125
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, you can change pictures. You can, you know, throw

126
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:23,719
Speaker 4: one up and in let them know that. They're not

127
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 4: happy about that. But also I think with Kratz, I

128
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 4: like your idea, but you got to be like split

129
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 4: second fast on all that stuff. I think guys are

130
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 4: at second base they found something in, you know, in

131
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 4: their chats before the game, the meetings. Hey, guys, if

132
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,040
Speaker 4: you're at second base, look where his hand, his positioning goes.

133
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 3: Give him the sign.

134
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:46,480
Speaker 4: I mean, at the end of the day, you can't

135
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:48,480
Speaker 4: see what the catcher's give him because he's not given

136
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 4: a sign, so might as well be not as discreet.

137
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:53,600
Speaker 4: Let the world know, even if it's late, so then

138
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 4: you could slow down or speed up. But the runner

139
00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,840
Speaker 4: at second base they had something. They've had something on

140
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 4: a couple guys like that, and now you know, you're

141
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,480
Speaker 4: starting to see it a lot more. They're trying, they're

142
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 4: they're flying away, fly away. I don't know what you

143
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:10,200
Speaker 4: call that thing, but it worked, It worked, and they

144
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 4: won the game. So you take whatever you can get.

145
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 3: All right.

146
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 2: Harry's is going to get an award here MVP in

147
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 2: the shaving world and AJ if you want to equate

148
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 2: it to things that we talk about. It's not expensive

149
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 2: and it's super versatile, right the company itself, because there's

150
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 2: other products that you can get on the site, do odorate,

151
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 2: body wash, et cetera. But for your everyday shaving needs,

152
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 2: Harry's has you covered. And you look at the pricing,

153
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 2: you look at the quality, and you're like, wait, why

154
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 2: was I using the old classic brand for a long time.

155
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 5: Listen as somebody right now that needs a Harry's, I've

156

00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 5: the pricing is right. I gotta go get my Harries

00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 1: Todd, you and I have been in pregame meetings. We've

169
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 1: been in pregame meetings with the Yankees. I'm not gonna

170
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 1: blow up their spot. But the guys who are doing that,

171
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 1: the guys who are looking for tips on pitchers, whether

172
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:33,959
Speaker 1: it's from second, whether it's from you know, how they

173
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,440
Speaker 1: set or it's a double set, their foot movement, anything,

174
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 1: they have their own special section in the Hitters meeting,

175
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 1: and you've seen it, Todd, Like these guys they get

176
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 1: a ton of stuff. Is it all? Some of it's

177
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 1: kind of like what do you say and guard he

178
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 1: would always be like, I see it, Yep, I totally

179
00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:01,719
Speaker 1: see it. I'm like, I don't see it. You're not playing.

180
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, it's everywhere.

181
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 4: If they if they find something, they're gonna have a

182
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 4: video on it, and it's up to you as a

183
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,559
Speaker 4: player to either take it serious or want to do it,

184
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,439
Speaker 4: and if not, you move on and get ready to

185
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 4: hit the baseball.

186
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 2: Would they be like, you see when it's slider, his

187
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 2: glove is held at a sixty eight degree angle instead

188
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:20,640
Speaker 2: of sixty seven.

189
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 4: It would it would have to be like here to

190
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 4: hear like something so obvious. And I think it was

191
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 4: that obviously. If I was to look back and take

192
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 4: like an hour to kind of dissect what he was doing, Kratzy,

193
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 4: you're really good at it too, Like it would it

194
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,440
Speaker 4: seems like it wouldn't take that long because it looked

195
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 4: really really something visible because they were they were doing

196
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 4: it a lot.

197
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,679
Speaker 1: So and if I was, you know, there's a lot

198
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 1: of things. Pictures, you know, some pictures have some pictures

199
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 1: have this thing on their on their glove for a

200
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:55,199
Speaker 1: reason because their finger guys, so they put their finger

201
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,080
Speaker 1: in there. Now you can't see when that finger moves

202
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 1: where if it's above there, you can see where that

203
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 1: finger moves because they're digging for a different pitch. Or

204
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 1: some guys I would even tell some pitchers like they

205
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: have their name, they have their name right there. Well

206
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 1: when they come set, if you see their name tilted, oh,

207
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:19,840
Speaker 1: now it's a lot easier. Or if you don't see

208
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 1: their name, you know, it turns out the screen. There's

209
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 1: so many different things, and when you have people dedicated

210
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 1: to do that, you find it and look what it did.

211
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just knew this is an All star.

212
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 1: He's got a one and a half era below one

213
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 1: whip on the season, like this is this is a

214
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 1: tip that everybody else is like, why don't we have

215
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 1: this tip? We want this too, you know the astros

216
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 1: are like it doesn't matter.

217
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,240
Speaker 2: Well, everyone's gonna be looking obviously, and now he has

218
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:51,960
Speaker 2: to do his homework and try and figure out what

219
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 2: it was and fix it because yeah, like you mentioned

220
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,320
Speaker 2: Kratz and there's there was a good article in the

221
00:10:56,400 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 2: Athletic talking about how yet not first but second base.

222
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 2: You know, guys at both spots were indicating when they

223
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,120
Speaker 2: knew he was going to throw a slider, and that's

224
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 2: where you were getting the very obvious arms in the air.

225
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 2: Brendan Coody and Chris Kershner by the way, putting that

226
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 2: article together also, I mean, when it's that obvious, the

227
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 2: Mariners are on top of it too, you know. Kyle

228
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 2: Riley's like, obviously they weren't making it very discreet when

229
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 2: he was tipping the slider in the ninth and the

230
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 2: Yankees were being no hit through seven innings, Brian wu

231
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 2: All Star looking like a stud, and then they cracked

232
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 2: the bullpen. It started with Matt Brash and then Andres Munos.

233
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:40,840
Speaker 2: So here's my follow up, Todd father Andres Munos is

234
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,439
Speaker 2: I don't know, probably twenty eight or something. I'll look

235
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 2: it up in a second. Yep, he's got a long

236
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,080
Speaker 2: career left to go. Why would you make it so

237
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 2: obvious that we all know it's a tip that he

238
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:55,640
Speaker 2: has to fix, versus making it super super discreet. And

239
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 2: this is a team that you could battle for years

240
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 2: with their closer and we might have been able to

241
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:01,559
Speaker 2: look at the Yanks. I mean, like for some reason,

242
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 2: the Yanks they must have something. They always get him,

243
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:05,839
Speaker 2: but we don't know. But we don't know. Maybe they

244
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 2: just have good success against him. They literally just told

245
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 2: the world this guy's giving away a slider and now

246
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 2: he's gonna fix it. It's major League Baseball.

247
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, and you know pictures are They're accustomed to doing

248
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 4: their little quirks, their little things.

249
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:20,839
Speaker 3: It's just a simple adjustment.

250
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 4: I mean, whatever he wants to do, what he wants

251
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 4: to come set here each time, or he wants to

252
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:27,319
Speaker 4: bring it closer to his.

253
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 2: Chest, why did they give it away? So this is

254
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 2: my question, why did he give it the Yanks? Like,

255
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:35,960
Speaker 2: do you guys does the other team on? No, no, no,

256
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:37,720
Speaker 2: I know that, But I'm saying, like, what if what

257
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 2: if you did? Like when there are things that don't

258
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 2: get a little what if you just did one of

259
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,200
Speaker 2: these things? And then wait, what if it's the Yanks

260
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 2: and the Mariners meeting up in the playoffs this year

261
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 2: and they could have smacked him one or two more

262
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:50,960
Speaker 2: times without him noticing. Why did they make it so

263
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 2: damn obvious? Isn't that the reason? Why make it subtle?

264
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 2: Like when you guys would see a tip right and

265
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 2: there's a guy at second that is giving the signs waight.

266
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 2: Most of the time, I'm for the average person watching

267
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 2: or even for a team they don't know, because that's

268
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 2: what signs are for. Why did they do this and say, hey,

269
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:09,240
Speaker 2: this is the only time we're ever going to be

270
00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 2: able to smash Munos in this very way.

271
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 3: I don't know. That's a really good question. I'm not sure.

272
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 3: I'm not sure.

273
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 2: A season game.

274
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 1: I need you to choose. I need you to choose.

275
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 1: It's one of two things. Either Belly who else out there? Belly, Domiguez,

276
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 1: and Grisham were the three guys that were on second.

277
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,679
Speaker 1: Either they were all so beamed out, so caffeinated out

278
00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 1: that they were just like, I don't care, we got it.

279
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 1: Or maybe everybody's deeked. Maybe everybody including the quote Yankee

280
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 1: source that somebody said was tipping and they didn't have anything,

281
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 1: but they know that pitchers, catchers, everybody's paranoid about giving

282
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:58,119
Speaker 1: a tip away and they're all laughing at everybody, including

283
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 1: foul Territory because we didn't have anything. Dude's nasty just

284
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 1: wasn't throwing strikes.

285
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:06,440
Speaker 2: Wait, so you think he doesn't have anything, and then

286
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:08,120
Speaker 2: they're just doing that to mess with him because the

287
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,400
Speaker 2: season series is over, right, they played each other in

288
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 2: two series already, So the next time they would match

289
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,440
Speaker 2: up would be in the playoffs. That's my thing is

290
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 2: I guess I get it if they don't have something,

291
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 2: but it seems like they did. And if they do that,

292
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,440
Speaker 2: why would you do that? This is a good team,

293
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 2: they might play them in the playoffs.

294
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 4: This isn't the first time they've done it either. I've

295
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 4: seen it a couple of times.

296
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 2: Where they've made it. Obviously, ye, why would you do that?

297
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 3: Maybe you actually know. Maybe they're just trying to get

298
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 3: in the head.

299
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,640
Speaker 2: That I like see that. I like, right Kratz, if

300
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 2: you're facing a closer who you just cannot beat.

301
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:42,720
Speaker 1: Right.

302
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 2: So let's say the Yanks are facing Yan Durant. I

303
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 2: don't know if they have good numbers or not against

304
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,120
Speaker 2: him specifically some of their big boys. But let's say

305
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 2: they're facing him, right, and they just start doing this,

306
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 2: and then they have a good inning. They're gonna be like, guys,

307
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 2: we got to switch something. They're honest. I like that

308
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 2: game some ship.

309
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 1: See I would be if you're telling me which side

310
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 1: of the argument I'm on, I'm on that side. Wow,

311
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 1: I'm on that side of the argument. And in fact,

312
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 1: I will reach out to somebody to see if I'm

313
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 1: right or wrong, because he's probably watching the show.

314
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 2: Okay, that's crazy to me. That's the one other part

315
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:20,760
Speaker 2: I wanted to get to. I probably should have brought

316
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 2: it up sooner. But if I've got something, I'm not

317
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 2: telling you.

318
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:24,600
Speaker 3: This is.

319
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:26,880
Speaker 2: This is what AJ says on the show all the time.

320
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 2: He said that guys are friends with guys in the league,

321
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 2: and sometimes they won't even tell them their tip until

322
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 2: their career is over because they'll smash them. Right. You

323
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 2: might have a buddy in the division and you pitched

324
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 2: with him in the or he pitched in the past

325
00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 2: and he was on your team, but now he's somewhere else,

326
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 2: and then the team has a tip, and then post career,

327
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 2: the friend will be like, yeah, you had a tip,

328
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 2: by the way, and the dude it's like, are you

329
00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 2: serious on your friend and he's like, yeah, but you're

330
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 2: And I'm a filly man.

331
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:53,680
Speaker 3: It's tough. We'll see what happened.

332
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,360
Speaker 2: That's spy games right there. I like it all right,

333
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 2: So to be continued perhaps, And I hope that the

334
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 2: Yankees meet up with the Mariners in the playoffs, so

335
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 2: that'd be a nice little matchup. How you doing, Hey,

336
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 2: a little more news for the Yanks. Clark Schmidt is

337
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,160
Speaker 2: having his Tommy John surgery today. I mean most surgeries

338
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 2: in the morning, so he probably already had it. Sucks

339
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 2: for him, of course, and for the Yanks and their

340
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,560
Speaker 2: rotation depth. But we had talked about the news I

341
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 2: think a couple of days ago, and usually you get

342
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 2: this done as quick as possible because you want to

343
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 2: try and get them back as soon as possible. But realistically, Kratz,

344
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 2: it's the few day difference doesn't really matter. He's not

345
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 2: coming back until twenty twenty seven.

346
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 1: No, we might have this discussion with Brandon Woodruff. Maybe

347
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 1: the few days does matter. Maybe maybe it matters. He doesn't.

348
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 1: He gets it in the morning today, he doesn't to

349
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:45,320
Speaker 1: wait till the weekend. Does that extra three day to me?

350
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:49,360
Speaker 1: In surgery and rehab, every day matters, but well as

351
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 1: big wu he just went through. He just went through

352
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 1: a big rehab. But I doubt we see him next year.

353
00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's July and the timetable. Is this

354
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 2: his first?

355
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 1: For a second, I don't know that he had one before. Okay, sure,

356
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:05,920
Speaker 1: I don't remember him having one before.

357
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 2: He's first, and it's not an internal brace. It's I

358
00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:13,440
Speaker 2: think fourteen to sixteen months. It's that long, I think so.

359
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 1: So now they're taking it that long.

360
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:18,880
Speaker 2: Yes, right, So if it's let's say the fourteen months, Okay,

361
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 2: we're in July. That takes you to the end of

362
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:22,240
Speaker 2: the season.

363
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:25,880
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, No, you're not playing no rehab.

364
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:29,359
Speaker 2: You're gonna come back September twentieth. I mean, what do

365
00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 2: we doing? Aj We're in Vegas right now and I

366
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 2: have not had a lot of time to eat during

367
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:38,159
Speaker 2: the day. No, what could we do?

368
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,160
Speaker 1: I could? I would love a HUEL right now.

369
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 5: Vanilla fuel would go down perfectly because I have to

370
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 5: skip meals because I'm too busy doing what you do

371
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:46,480
Speaker 5: in Vegas, which is not eat.

372
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:49,400
Speaker 1: I need a quick replacement, and Heuel is the perfect thing.

388
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:38,720
Speaker 2: the debut of top astros prospect Bryce Matthews. So, their

389
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:42,040
Speaker 2: top prospect entering the season was Cam Smith, who they

390
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 2: traded in the Kyle tuckerfel and Cam Smith has really

391
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:48,720
Speaker 2: come on the scene now next up is Bryce Matthews.

392
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:51,719
Speaker 2: So Brian mctiger broke the news yesterday. He said he's

393
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 2: slashing two eighty three four hundred on base for seventy

394
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 2: six slug He is breaking at triple A. Also has

395
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 2: ten dingers and twenty five ol in bases, playing mostly

396
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,720
Speaker 2: second okay, and he was set to play in the

397
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:08,880
Speaker 2: Futures Game. It's a great phone call. Hey, actually, we're

398
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:11,280
Speaker 2: not gonna We're not gonna send you out there.

399
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 4: You're going to the big oh man, it's like the

400
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:18,439
Speaker 4: modern day Jeff Kent. The guy hits homers, he runs,

401
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 4: and he's a beast, gets on base all the time here.

402
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 4: So this is fantastic for a Houston Astro team that's

403
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,959
Speaker 4: doing pretty darn good right now. They're coming on strong

404
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 4: and it just seems like when they're out of the woods,

405
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 4: all of a sudden, boom, something just clicks again. They

406
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,200
Speaker 4: go on to free of beating very good teams left

407
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,760
Speaker 4: and right, like the Dodgers for one, and this is

408
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:40,800
Speaker 4: another breath of fresh air. It's like having a second

409
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 4: or third win right now for this team, another key

410
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,160
Speaker 4: cog that you know should help them along the way

411
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 4: getting into the playoffs.

412
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 2: No, you're a Don Alvarez for a good chunk of

413
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:51,720
Speaker 2: the season at this point, and yet the team is

414
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:54,679
Speaker 2: humming there in first place. Jose Al two vay has

415
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:56,960
Speaker 2: been a little bit Dah's a little bit of second base.

416
00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:02,400
Speaker 2: Obviously outfield was an inter experiments, not for everybody, but

417
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 2: it still is. Yeah, but this is the guy. I mean,

418
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,880
Speaker 2: they're hoping this is their second basement for the next

419
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 2: ten years. With's matocrats, a lot of punch outs, a

420
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 2: lot of punch outs, in the bushes.

421
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 1: I get it, you know, I think his walk ray

422
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:19,760
Speaker 1: is I think he's got like fifty walks in like

423
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 1: three hundred and thirty plate appearances. It's almost had one

424
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:26,240
Speaker 1: hundred punchouts already. I get it. He's got ten dangers,

425
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,760
Speaker 1: you know, it's not like a huge number of dangers

426
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:33,280
Speaker 1: per plate appearance. But I just punch outs in the

427
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 1: minor leagues, especially now with the way the Triple A

428
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:39,439
Speaker 1: pitching is, like the gap between Triple A pitching and

429
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,560
Speaker 1: big LEA pitching is expanding. You're coming to the big leagues,

430
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:47,400
Speaker 1: You're it's you can't. You can't run away from strikeouts.

431
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:50,240
Speaker 1: I've seen very few people go to the big leagues

432
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:54,200
Speaker 1: and strike out less. It's usually some type of uptick.

433
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:57,960
Speaker 1: So it'll be interesting to see. But he clearly controls

434
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:01,080
Speaker 1: the strike zone. Well it's just some kind of swing

435
00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:04,440
Speaker 1: and miss or I doubt it's chased because he walks

436
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,360
Speaker 1: quite a bit. So we'll see.

437
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,360
Speaker 4: There's an adjustment. And always people always talk about I'm

438
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:10,919
Speaker 4: not sticking up for him. I agree with you on

439
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 4: the strikeout thing. It's just going to lead to more.

440
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:15,560
Speaker 4: But there's an adjustment that's going to have to be

441
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,760
Speaker 4: made as you go up there. Yeah, is he ready?

442
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 4: Of course he's ready. But it is a different ballgame

443
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 4: in the major leagues. These guys are crafty, they know

444
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,680
Speaker 4: what to throw. They know they'll throw three in a

445
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 4: row in a spot that you know it was a

446
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:32,439
Speaker 4: ball and one of the you chase one of them,

447
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:33,400
Speaker 4: they got you by the hook.

448
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:35,800
Speaker 3: So again it's going to be an adjustment.

449
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,879
Speaker 4: But this guy deserves to be up there, and you know,

450
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 4: I can't wait to see what he does.

451
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:45,040
Speaker 2: So he was a guest on Crush City Territory with

452
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,080
Speaker 2: Chandler Rome. I think it was a couple months back.

453
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:50,720
Speaker 2: We had a little clip from them talking about draft night.

454
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:54,200
Speaker 6: What's it like, you know, growing up in the Houston

455
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:58,200
Speaker 6: area and then finding out like, oh, the local team

456
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:00,760
Speaker 6: is going to draft me. You mentioned, you know, wanting

457
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 6: family and friends to see you. Like what's going through

458
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 6: your head on draft night?

459
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:06,200
Speaker 2: Like that?

460
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 7: At the beginning, like my range was like twenty eight

461
00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 7: to fifty four, so like I didn't really have my

Speaker 3: Going on there.

533
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,439
Speaker 1: Hey, we used to do that. We used to do that.

534
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 1: But one of the guys on the team knew Britney

535
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,879
Speaker 1: Grinder one time and he put Brittany Grinder down on it.

536
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:49,919
Speaker 1: People are like, oh, that's great, that's great. He's like, no,

537
00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:52,359
Speaker 1: she's actually coming like she'd like to sit behind the

538
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,359
Speaker 1: dugout and watch there she was.

539
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:56,359
Speaker 3: We're all like, no, stop it.

540
00:25:57,720 --> 00:25:59,240
Speaker 2: That's good. You got to get him every once in

541
00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:00,640
Speaker 2: a while where you put them.

542
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,560
Speaker 4: And then cross the mount and it comes like, yo, dude,

543
00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:04,360
Speaker 4: got him.

544
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:07,800
Speaker 2: That's good. That's good anyway. So we'll see how Bryce

545
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 2: Matthews looks this weekend making his debut. And also, by

546
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:15,800
Speaker 2: the way, the Futures Game is on Saturday. Leo Dvrees,

547
00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:19,160
Speaker 2: big prospects in the San Diego Padres system, Philly's pitcher

548
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:24,000
Speaker 2: Andrew Painter, last year's first round pick for the Cardinals,

549
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:28,679
Speaker 2: JJ Weatherholt, Jesus Mode Brewers, big prospect, Charlie Condon who

550
00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:31,520
Speaker 2: went third overall to the Rockies last year. American League.

551
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:34,200
Speaker 2: You've got the Tigers are loaded with prospects still, which

552
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 2: is scary for people. Guys like Max Clark, who's a

553
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:39,240
Speaker 2: former first round pick, Kevin McGonagle, a lot of people

554
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 2: are really excited about it. Spashion Walcott, who I think

555
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 2: is now the top prospect in the Rangers system. I

556
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,080
Speaker 2: think Noah Schultz for the White Sox is scheduled to pitch.

557
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,040
Speaker 2: So it's a good list. Here's the biggest problem with

558
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 2: that whole deal, Kratz. It's Saturday at four pm Eastern time.

559
00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:58,200
Speaker 1: Oh, tell me, tell me you don't want to promote

560
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,399
Speaker 1: the young players. Without telling me you don't want to

561
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:02,919
Speaker 1: promote the young players.

562
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 2: You know what else is happening Saturday at four pm

563
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,919
Speaker 2: Eastern time? The Mets are playing the Royals. The Cubs

564
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:10,640
Speaker 2: and Yankees will be wrapping up a game. I mean,

565
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 2: do you want me to keep going? Oh, the Dodgers

566
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:13,720
Speaker 2: and the Giants play.

567
00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:16,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, because everybody ends early, don't they at their point team.

568
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,240
Speaker 2: It's just the schedule is littered with games at the

569
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 2: same exact time, and you're telling people that take away

570
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,320
Speaker 2: from their team and their big league team and watch

571
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:28,160
Speaker 2: the futures game. We are lost on how to promote

572
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:30,560
Speaker 2: the young side of the sport right now. Between the

573
00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:34,240
Speaker 2: draft and the futures game, we are lost.

574
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,439
Speaker 1: And then we're gonna have a game a night soon

575
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:40,880
Speaker 1: where there's like three games scheduled like soon, right around

576
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 1: the All Star breaks, somewhere where you couldn't have like

577
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,679
Speaker 1: scheduled this game for that time. But they're like the

578
00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:49,240
Speaker 1: All Star breaks, seems like a good time to have

579
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:52,880
Speaker 1: the prospect game. Put the Prospect game at rick Wood.

580
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:55,680
Speaker 1: Put the Prospect Game as field of dreams.

581
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:58,840
Speaker 2: Make like, what on a Wednesday? What about the Wednesday

582
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 2: after All Star? And what's the worst that happens all

583
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,120
Speaker 2: the guys in the Futures games even though the minor

584
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:06,160
Speaker 2: league season whatever. I don't know when it starts back

585
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:07,640
Speaker 2: up again or if it even has the same break.

586
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 2: I don't what.

587
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:08,600
Speaker 3: I don't care.

588
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:11,760
Speaker 2: Here's my point. Yes, you tell your futures guy. Hey, dude,

00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 2: you're getting a couple extra days off because you're going

590
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 2: to the Futures game, right not the end of the world.

591
00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:17,120

Speaker 2: his card.

617
00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:18,520
Speaker 1: James Would.

618
00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 5: I don't know that he's underrated, but Washington National's superstar

619
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:23,800
Speaker 5: in the making, and the first slab pack I ever

620
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 5: opened had him in it, his rookie card, and the

621
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 5: value is only going.

622
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:28,280
Speaker 1: To go up and up and up. And I'm not

623
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:29,560
Speaker 1: going to sell it KWI yet, Scott.

624
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 5: I'm going to hold on to it because after he

625
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:34,160
Speaker 5: continues to hit big homers and put up the stats

626
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:36,640
Speaker 5: make All Star teams, it's going to get more expensive

627
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:37,960
Speaker 5: for someone to buy for me.

628
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 2: This is his first full season in the majors. Keep

629
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 2: that in mind. I think he's underrated. He's on a

630
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 2: Nationals team that's man putting enough attention.

631
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 1: He might underrated. When he makes the All Star team

632
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,280
Speaker 1: this year, They're not going to be underrated.

633
00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 2: That helps. He's been intentionally walked four times in a game. Anyway,

634
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:55,680
Speaker 2: If you want to try and find a wood rookie card,

635
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:58,440

Speaker 2: L use code foul. If you buy, sell, trade, collect,

640
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:13,440
Speaker 2: go for it. Next up, tough debut for Brian Baker

641
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,320
Speaker 2: with the Rays. They just picked him up and then

642
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:19,040
Speaker 2: they ask him to enter a tight game in the eighth,

643
00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 2: he gives up the lead, Rays fall to the Red Sox.

644
00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:24,720
Speaker 2: Do you want to talk about that for a second?

645
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:26,600
Speaker 2: First craft so should we go right to why he

646
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:27,080
Speaker 2: was dealt?

647
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:30,120
Speaker 1: Go right to why he was depe I don't want

648
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 1: to whatever.

649
00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 3: I mean.

650
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 2: My thing on that is, I mean, you get you know,

651
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:36,480
Speaker 2: I I think apparently found out through the media first,

652
00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 2: then they called him. Then he then your life flashes,

653
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 2: you're with the Rays. You enter in the eighth and

654
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 2: and the Socks got him, got to him, and the

655
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:45,840
Speaker 2: Socks been playing well lately. I think they've won like

656
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 2: eight of nine, nine of ten. But anyway, so so

657
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 2: he gives up technically charged with three earned runs over

658
00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:57,240
Speaker 2: his inning a couple of walks, and Michael Lias addressed

659
00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 2: why he traded Brian Baker. Can we show the tweet

660
00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:04,680
Speaker 2: here from Jacob Calvin Meyer, thank you who covers the

661
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,480
Speaker 2: team every day. Michael I said the Oriols were not

662
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 2: shopping Brian Baker. He said the Rays were aggressive and

663
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:13,920
Speaker 2: direct in their pursuit of Baker. He said it's not

664
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 2: an agenda item to trade guys with multiple years of control.

665
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:24,440
Speaker 2: It was an opportunity that came aka Kratz Ooh good trade.

666
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 2: I'm too tempted. I got something that might help me

667
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 2: in five years. I can't even though this guy's gonna

668
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,240
Speaker 2: help me next year when we're supposed to be contending again. Okay, cool, well,

669
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:37,320
Speaker 2: let's just keep doing that, right, Okay. Felix Bautista could

670
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,200
Speaker 2: be closing out a playoff game for you next year,

671
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:42,080
Speaker 2: which you haven't won during your winning window, but you

672
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 2: might get tempted with a good prospect who could help

673
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 2: you in twenty twenty nine. I'm not saying you shouldn't

674
00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:48,320
Speaker 2: have good prospects, but what are we doing with the

675
00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:50,600
Speaker 2: winning window. We're saying, Hey, I'm getting a pick that's

676
00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:52,320
Speaker 2: going to help me in the future years from now,

677
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:54,640
Speaker 2: and so I'm going to sacrifice what I have at

678
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:56,840
Speaker 2: the moment when by the time I'm worried about that

679
00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:59,440
Speaker 2: next guy, I might not have half of my current core.

680
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:06,280
Speaker 1: Scott, let's let's backtrack. You're saying prospect, he got traded

681
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:12,040
Speaker 1: for somebody they haven't even picked yet. Thirty seventh pick.

682
00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:14,160
Speaker 1: It's not a first round pick.

683
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:16,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's good. It's a high level pick and for him,

684
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:18,960
Speaker 2: you know what he's doing. My math says that this

685
00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 2: pick is worth sixteen million dollars over the course of

686
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 2: the career. That's a real thing. They put a price

687
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:25,480
Speaker 2: on every pick.

688
00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 1: All it was was money. They got Brian Baker for money.

689
00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 1: Whether you think Brian Baker is gonna be good, people

690
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 1: who say, oh, they traded him, and now look what

691
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:35,920
Speaker 1: he did when he went against the team went in

692
00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:39,200
Speaker 1: against the team who hits changeups really well, and what's

693
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:42,480
Speaker 1: his best pitch change up? Anyway, you sit there and

694
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 1: you go, Okay, you got extra slot money for all

695
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:51,440
Speaker 1: your entire bonus pool for the whole draft. So now

696
00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 1: you have the most slot money. So now you have

697
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 1: an opportunity to just draft all these other picks. And

698
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:01,280
Speaker 1: whether you're trying to look all those picks or not,

699
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:04,520
Speaker 1: but you get all that money for a player that

700
00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:07,880
Speaker 1: could have helped you next year. To me, you talk

701
00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 1: about not on the he said quote, not on the

702
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 1: agenda list. What is your agenda? Tell me your agenda,

703
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:17,960
Speaker 1: Michael Lias, tell me your agenda. Please don't beat around

704
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:21,840
Speaker 1: the bush. Please don't say things. Don't say the GM

705
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:27,480
Speaker 1: speak of a sustainable product, because there's Orioles fans who

706
00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:31,160
Speaker 1: have still stuck around even though they shouldn't have based

707
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:35,360
Speaker 1: on the awful rebuild or the rebuild that created this roster.

708
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,960
Speaker 1: And now you're saying, well, our agenda isn't to get

709
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:43,760
Speaker 1: rid of guys with control, but you did. You did

710
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:46,400
Speaker 1: get rid of guys with control, and now he's not

711
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:48,880
Speaker 1: going to be there. You have to replace him, which

712
00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 1: you didn't do a very good job of this offseason

713
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:56,520
Speaker 1: replacing pieces that we're missing. So to me, your agenda

714
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,800
Speaker 1: needs to be explained, or maybe you shouldn't be back.

715
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 2: Is the goal to always have talent flowing or is

716
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:08,960
Speaker 2: the goal to also make sure that you actually win

717
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:12,360
Speaker 2: during the time period when you're supposed to after tanking

718
00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:16,040
Speaker 2: for five years. I'm lost on the topic. Hey, Internally,

719
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 2: they might be saying, you know what, we don't really

720
00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:21,680
Speaker 2: like this guy. We don't we don't buy the changes

721
00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:23,720
Speaker 2: he made this year that we helped him with. Okay,

722
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,920
Speaker 2: that's fine. Then you still shouldn't phrase what you just

723
00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:30,200
Speaker 2: said the way you said it. It is very misleading,

724
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:32,799
Speaker 2: and fans are on fire right now in Baltimore. They're

725
00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 2: lost to their confused. They go, yep, we're out of

726
00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:37,239
Speaker 2: it this year. We figure you're going to trade the

727
00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:40,839
Speaker 2: rentals away, but you started trade season with a guy

728
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:45,399
Speaker 2: that had years of control left. I'm lost there.

729
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 3: But we talked about it all the time. I brought

730
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:48,759
Speaker 3: it up.

731
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:51,840
Speaker 2: You did not like the roster. We all didn't like

732
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:53,480
Speaker 2: the roster. This is the one thing we agreed on,

733
00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:55,280
Speaker 2: but you didn't like it so much that you picked

734
00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:57,240
Speaker 2: them before the season to not make the playoffs.

735
00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 4: No, I didn't, and you see it coming. And I'm

736
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:03,280
Speaker 4: not trying all because I told you so. They didn't

737
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:05,120
Speaker 4: get rid of the guys when they needed to a

738
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:07,200
Speaker 4: couple of years ago. They had so many of them

739
00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 4: and an opportunity to get better, get some major league

740
00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:13,200
Speaker 4: experience guys, get a guy that you know could come

741
00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:16,000
Speaker 4: in and close in the seventh or eighth, and get

742
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:18,560
Speaker 4: guys that are known to play in the major leagues.

743
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,080
Speaker 4: And they didn't do it. And now, what two or

744
00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 4: three are pretty good? And how about the rest of

745
00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 4: the guys exactly?

746
00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:27,279
Speaker 2: And they didn't address pitching, and they haven't developed pitching well,

747
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:29,080
Speaker 2: and they've mostly ignored it. Like they've done a really

748
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:32,440
Speaker 2: good job of drafting and then position players then developing

749
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:35,759
Speaker 2: No what what pitching. If they developed starting pitching.

750
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:42,720
Speaker 1: Tyler Wells, Bradish, Brayson Rodriguez, that's a banger. Top three.

751
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:43,919
Speaker 2: But they're all hurt.

752
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:47,480
Speaker 1: They're all hurt. I wouldn't. I wouldn't say they haven't.

753
00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 1: They haven't had the they haven't had the plethora of

754
00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:57,799
Speaker 1: starting pitching like they have supposedly all of these position players.

755
00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:02,320
Speaker 2: But yeah, if you like they pick, they go position

756
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:04,239
Speaker 2: players high in the draft, which is fine. I mean

757
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:05,399
Speaker 2: some teams go that route.

758
00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:06,120
Speaker 3: Stop doing that.

759
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:08,680
Speaker 2: You got to mix it up at least that I

760
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:09,400
Speaker 2: would imagine that.

761
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:13,920
Speaker 4: Or get that college, get that college college high school, right,

762
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,160
Speaker 4: you know, third fourth round, get that high school alarm

763
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:18,759
Speaker 4: where it's like this kid's gonna be three four years

764
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,000
Speaker 4: from now, but you want their college arm and that's

765
00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:23,279
Speaker 4: ready to rock man. And there's a couple of them

766
00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 4: out there right now.

767
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:29,840
Speaker 2: Hey, we got some All Star edition news multiple. I

768
00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:33,840
Speaker 2: just heard Casey Mice cracked the roster. I just heard

769
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:38,200
Speaker 2: Carlos Rodin is replacing Max Freed on the roster. And

770
00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:42,240
Speaker 2: this is Bob Knight and saying, ending any suspense, who

771
00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 2: manager Aaron Boone will select to be his al starting

772
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:49,400
Speaker 2: pitcher for the All Star Game. Trek Skouble gets the

773
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:53,200
Speaker 2: announcement makes sense, Cy young winner and you know, top

774
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 2: three contender for the award.

775
00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:57,560
Speaker 4: Again it always it's kind of it stinks you think

776
00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:00,399
Speaker 4: about it, like for the guys that are true. Also,

777
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:02,680
Speaker 4: I'm not saying these guys aren't that are coming into being.

778
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:03,920
Speaker 2: All Star replacements.

779
00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, they You know why I wish you could make

780
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,279
Speaker 4: it till all these guys can you know, get a

781
00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:10,440
Speaker 4: little taste. You know, some guys might just it might

782
00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:13,759
Speaker 4: be one time they ever do it. So they'll still

783
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:16,080
Speaker 4: get the jersey, they'll still you know, be an All Star,

784
00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,400
Speaker 4: but they just you know, can't go to it and perform.

785
00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:21,040
Speaker 4: So that's the worst, that's the toughest part. But for

786
00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:24,080
Speaker 4: guys to get in that we're on the fringe even better.

787
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 4: So it's that happy, you know, good bad kind of thing.

788
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:29,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, Casey Mice just got the call too, so I

789
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:31,920
Speaker 2: don't know, I didn't get to see who he's replacing,

790
00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:34,760
Speaker 2: but a bunch of pitching replacements. It always happens scrats

791
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:36,960
Speaker 2: because a lot of teams, whether it's set up or not,

792
00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:39,880
Speaker 2: will have their starters going on a Saturday or Sunday

793
00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:43,600
Speaker 2: and then they'll can't try someone. Instead, he replaces Crochet,

794
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:46,440
Speaker 2: by the way, Casey Mice for Crochet.

795
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:49,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought, I thought the guys that went Saturday

796
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:52,319
Speaker 1: usually still pitching the game. But I mean, I guess

797
00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:56,120
Speaker 1: they're pushing that back now to Friday. So Schoogl's going tonight,

798
00:37:56,880 --> 00:38:01,560
Speaker 1: Freed's going tomorrow. Definitely a Sunday guys around.

799
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:02,480
Speaker 3: I get that that.

800
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:04,680
Speaker 2: I get Yeah, at some point they're going to say

801
00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:08,319
Speaker 2: unless you add full rest or let a.

802
00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:11,640
Speaker 4: Whole week off and have it like the next Friday Saturdays,

803
00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:14,960
Speaker 4: do that and then fly them out Sunday, and then

804
00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:17,160
Speaker 4: baseball back on money boom.

805
00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:22,560
Speaker 2: Nice take break. Quick question, by the way, from Jamin

806
00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:24,439
Speaker 2: and the chat, what's the purpose of not being able

807
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:27,400
Speaker 2: to trade draft picks. That's a great question, Jamon, and

808
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:31,319
Speaker 2: it's a question that nobody can answer because it requires

809
00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:33,759
Speaker 2: collective bargaining, which we've hit quite a bit over the

810
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,080
Speaker 2: last couple of weeks. And we have one side that

811
00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 2: said they would like to see it and another side

812
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:40,359
Speaker 2: that said they would not like to see it. It's

813
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:43,200
Speaker 2: that simple. That is a fact right now. One side

814
00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:45,560
Speaker 2: wants all draft picks to be traded or allowed to

815
00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:48,600
Speaker 2: be traded, because it would create more excitement in the game.

816
00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:51,200
Speaker 2: And it's actually the side that would have to deal

817
00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 2: with the repercussions of bouncing around, right, it would create

818
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:58,640
Speaker 2: more trades. It's I know, getting traded for you guys

819
00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 2: not the most fun thing in the world, just hop

820
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:02,520
Speaker 2: the family to another city. But they know the good

821
00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:04,759
Speaker 2: of the game that it's fun. You can say I'm

822
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:07,319
Speaker 2: being biased, but it's a fact, one side is for it,

823
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:10,000
Speaker 2: they would do it tomorrow. The other side is not

824
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:11,320
Speaker 2: for it at the moment they want it.

825
00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:13,600
Speaker 3: Is it hurting though? I don't get it? I did.

826
00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 2: Do you remember what the explanation was Kratz.

827
00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:20,800
Speaker 1: Their explanation, while super vague, was always we're not sure

828
00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 1: if the owners would, if the teams would say would

829
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 1: use it, use it inappropriately? And we were like, what

830
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:30,960
Speaker 1: does that mean? As a player, what does that mean?

831
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:33,719
Speaker 1: So you just don't know how to regulate it. Look

832
00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:36,600
Speaker 1: at the other sports, everybody loves the draft, the draft

833
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:39,400
Speaker 1: trades on Draft Day, like all, we're moving up to

834
00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:43,120
Speaker 1: go get Chase Burns, who's gonna help us in our

835
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:47,480
Speaker 1: playoff run? Moving up to go get Finigan, who's gonna

836
00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:51,840
Speaker 1: help us a playoff run with Royals? Like that is intrigue.

837
00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:58,719
Speaker 2: It makes too much sense. So it's not happening. Hot

838
00:39:58,800 --> 00:39:59,359
Speaker 2: Corner time.

839
00:39:59,400 --> 00:39:59,640
Speaker 3: Baby.

840
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:02,200
Speaker 2: It's by next Playground, which has a new home Run

841
00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 2: Heroes home Run Derby game, and we are going to

842
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:06,400
Speaker 2: play it after the show and then show you the

843
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:11,360
Speaker 2: results next week. But the derby field is set. We

844
00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:14,759
Speaker 2: learned about the last two yesterday Brent Rooker, and then

845
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:17,839
Speaker 2: after the show it was announced that Jazz Chisholm will

846
00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:22,200
Speaker 2: also join the fields. Todd Father, I know you're going

847
00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:23,560
Speaker 2: to be part of the broadcast.

848
00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:24,520
Speaker 3: We're excited to.

849
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:27,840
Speaker 2: Hear you on there. Ronald Lacuna Junior, cal Raley, James

850
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:32,239
Speaker 2: wood Byron Buxton, O'Neil Cruz Junior, Cameronaro plus Rooker and

851
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,439
Speaker 2: Jazz Chisholm size it up for us. What do you think?

852
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:38,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I was looking at you know, bet MGM.

853
00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:40,000
Speaker 4: I was looking at to see where the numbers are.

854
00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:44,439
Speaker 4: The The favorite is cal Raley. I guess he's he's

855
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:48,480
Speaker 4: a switch hitter, not necessarily plays what I mean. You

856
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:50,919
Speaker 4: see Adlie Rutchman tried doing it the one year, going

857
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:53,400
Speaker 4: the opposite side, you're still going to be exhausted.

858
00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:55,520
Speaker 3: I don't care what side you hit by. You know

859
00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 3: you got.

860
00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 4: Byron Buxton, the Georgia Bourne guy. You know he's gonna

861
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:04,200
Speaker 4: be playing for free that day. O'Neill Cruz, this guy

862
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:07,120
Speaker 4: I've seen hit personally the last team I played with.

863
00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:09,120
Speaker 4: We were on that that team that waited to get

864
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:14,080
Speaker 4: called up during the covid H experience. This guy can

865
00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:15,680
Speaker 4: hit the ball, and he hits the ball hard, but

866
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:18,880
Speaker 4: here's my thing about him. He hits him far, but

867
00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:21,399
Speaker 4: they're line drive, so this is gonna help him get

868
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:24,000
Speaker 4: more at a time. Of course he's gonna pops him

869
00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:26,920
Speaker 4: up that are gonna get out, but his trajectory is

870
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,960
Speaker 4: this way, not up and out. That's the guy I'm

871
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:33,680
Speaker 4: keeping my eye on. The biggest underdog is Brent Rooker,

872
00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:36,400
Speaker 4: and I haven't really like this guy, and I like

873
00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:39,840
Speaker 4: his chances actually too as well. To make a big

874
00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:43,600
Speaker 4: splash in his home run derby two time All Star

875
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:46,839
Speaker 4: guy can hit homers. He's played at a minor league

876
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:49,520
Speaker 4: park for half the year so far. I see him

877
00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:51,879
Speaker 4: making a big splash in here. And then another guy

878
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:55,000
Speaker 4: that pops in mind, Junior Camonaro. You've seen the excitement,

879
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:56,919
Speaker 4: You've seen the energy is going to be too much

880
00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:59,440
Speaker 4: of the energy that all of a sudden he fades

881
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:02,600
Speaker 4: out the second half. There's a lot to look into.

882
00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:04,640
Speaker 4: This is gonna be one memorable home run derby a

883
00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:07,080
Speaker 4: lot of young stars, a lot of first timers. Scott,

884
00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:10,200
Speaker 4: I can't wait to see, and you know Firo and

885
00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:11,719
Speaker 4: Bucks and I can't wait to see too, because he

886
00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:13,440
Speaker 4: can hit the ball far away. Oh yeah, does he

887
00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:16,000
Speaker 4: do that? In VP though, so we'll see sick guy

888
00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:19,040
Speaker 4: and who are they gonna throw? We'll get all that information.

889
00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:20,239
Speaker 2: Who was staring to is your brother?

890
00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:22,640
Speaker 3: My brother? But how are they gonna throw lob but

891
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:24,719
Speaker 3: a they're gonna throw firm. We'll see.

892
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:26,920
Speaker 4: There's a lot of intricacies unless, but not least the

893
00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:28,640
Speaker 4: hometown here Ronald Ocunya.

894
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:30,279
Speaker 3: Is the pressure going to be too much?

895
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:33,720
Speaker 2: Remember when Bryce Harper won? What year was that, twenty

896
00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:37,960
Speaker 2: seventeen or eighteen? Yeah, yeah, in front of the home crowd.

897
00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:40,400
Speaker 2: Do you think Akuna could do that? I think he's

898
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:42,840
Speaker 2: got the pop in the athleticism, he's not going to

899
00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:45,239
Speaker 2: tire out, and he's a you never know.

900
00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:48,439
Speaker 4: It's exhausting, even though the time limit has gone down.

901
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:52,439
Speaker 4: It's interesting, scratzy what you got.

902
00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:55,440
Speaker 1: Oh, I was just gonna say, I don't think anybody that.

903
00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:57,960
Speaker 1: I don't think any hometown players can ever win the

904
00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:00,160
Speaker 1: home run derby, like I think those guys that do

905
00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:03,440
Speaker 1: that or just big times herds like bad guys. Like

906
00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:05,480
Speaker 1: if you're if you're hitting your home run derby in

907
00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:08,640
Speaker 1: your home, in the town, you're playing in the city,

908
00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:11,640
Speaker 1: you're playing in, big thumbs down to you.

909
00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:15,160
Speaker 3: That's good. That that means good, Thank you so much.

910
00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:20,439
Speaker 1: No, I gotta I gotta ask you, Todd. There's there's

911
00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:23,879
Speaker 1: a big difference. I'm looking at the I'm.

912
00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 2: Looking at hold on real quick. He took like a

913
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:29,359
Speaker 2: piece of tape or something and he threw it at

914
00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:32,760
Speaker 2: the TV and like it was a perfect strike directly

915
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:33,840
Speaker 2: between the eyeballs.

916
00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:37,759
Speaker 1: I was wondering. I felt I felt something like hit

917
00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:40,840
Speaker 1: my eye. But anyway, the top so the top four

918
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:46,960
Speaker 1: guys that I think it's like cal Raley, Auna Cruise,

919
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:51,200
Speaker 1: Cruise and James Wood would be like you know, the

920
00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:55,640
Speaker 1: top four that you think of of those of those guys,

921
00:43:55,680 --> 00:44:00,360
Speaker 1: who do you think has the best shot? Oh?

922
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:05,279
Speaker 3: Man, I think Cruz does. I do. I think he does.

923
00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:08,799
Speaker 4: With his swing and with his bat speed, he can

924
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:12,239
Speaker 4: go on an absolute tear and hit six to eight

925
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:14,600
Speaker 4: in a row and next thing you know, he's only

926
00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:16,359
Speaker 4: down three with thirty seconds left.

927
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:18,000
Speaker 3: Something like that. I don't think the.

928
00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:21,160
Speaker 4: Guy tires ever, It's just a matter of how much

929
00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:22,839
Speaker 4: is he going to compete in this competition?

930
00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:29,240
Speaker 1: Okay, just because I'm looking at it, like James Wood

931
00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:32,080
Speaker 1: is the I honestly wish the number was a little

932
00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:33,960
Speaker 1: bit better. For us. I wish it was paying a

933
00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:37,040
Speaker 1: little bit better. I just don't feel like people understand,

934
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:41,439
Speaker 1: like the ease and the size of this guy. He's

935
00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:44,279
Speaker 1: going opo. That's my only fear is a lot of

936
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:48,560
Speaker 1: his homers in games are the opposite field, and I

937
00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:51,640
Speaker 1: haven't seen a ton of guys consistently go opposite field

938
00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:54,080
Speaker 1: in the home run derby. So I want to do

939
00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:56,640
Speaker 1: a little bit more digging to see if he can

940
00:44:56,680 --> 00:44:59,040
Speaker 1: go like Puol happy homers. Because if he can go

941
00:44:59,080 --> 00:45:03,560
Speaker 1: Puol happy homers, MVP. To me, he's the guy like

942
00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:06,319
Speaker 1: this one right here. Nobody's throwing him a breaking ball.

943
00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:10,319
Speaker 1: He's taking heaters and he's going biggest part of the

944
00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:13,880
Speaker 1: ballpark with ease. I just I just don't see. I

945
00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:15,600
Speaker 1: just don't see a lot of opo. And maybe you

946
00:45:15,600 --> 00:45:17,880
Speaker 1: can tell me different, Todd, a lot of dudes that

947
00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:21,799
Speaker 1: go opo. It's hard or even center. I mean we're

948
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:25,680
Speaker 1: watching one essentially a center, just right a center. It's tough.

949
00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:30,160
Speaker 1: You need the guys that just pull hooked dingers, that's

950
00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:32,120
Speaker 1: days backspin dingers.

951
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:36,120
Speaker 4: It's hard to hit opposite field home runs consistently in

952
00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:38,080
Speaker 4: a home runner because the speed isn't there.

953
00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:39,399
Speaker 3: They got to throw in it.

954
00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:42,719
Speaker 1: And you almost have to you almost have to like reset,

955
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:44,840
Speaker 1: like when guys do it almost look like they reset.

956
00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:47,840
Speaker 1: Ryan Howard did it, and I feel like Ryan Howard

957
00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:52,520
Speaker 1: power plus is like equal to the James Wood power.

958
00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:56,160
Speaker 4: I don't know, we'll see those are those underdogs that

959
00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:58,680
Speaker 4: you you don't know, We'll see what happens.

960
00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:02,880
Speaker 2: Junior camp Mon Arrow. Junior is young. He's he's almost

961
00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:05,080
Speaker 2: up there with with a cruise with the bats being

962
00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:07,360
Speaker 2: all that the only thing with Cruise those line drives.

963
00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:10,439
Speaker 2: He does a lot of those that smack off the wall. Yeah,

964
00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:12,080
Speaker 2: we've got to get a little more lyft on it.

965
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:13,600
Speaker 2: Junior does that naturally, a.

966
00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:17,879
Speaker 4: Little more if it swings ferocious and that might lead

967
00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:18,920
Speaker 4: to more pop ups to it.

968
00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:21,279
Speaker 3: But not saying he can't do it.

969
00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:24,640
Speaker 2: Okay, I like it. Let's show off the bling the

970
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:29,920
Speaker 2: home run derby champ chain. Oh there, yeah, that's nice.

971
00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:30,479
Speaker 2: That's cool.

972
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:34,520
Speaker 4: It's got a big gold No, yeah, looks.

973
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:40,040
Speaker 2: That looks good. Yeah, but it's right exactly, but it's

974
00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:42,160
Speaker 2: still cool. Is somebody's signature on there?

975
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:43,600
Speaker 3: It does say keep.

976
00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:48,279
Speaker 2: Swinging, keep swinging. Yeah, Well that's the name of the game.

Speaker 2: Mm hmm. Every Friday, which started last Friday and runs

1065
00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:26,200
Speaker 2: through the end of August, it's the King of the

00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:32,040
Speaker 2: sweeter for you, so you get yourself a bonus bet

1068
00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:34,440
Speaker 2: into your count on Fridays throughout the season. When you

Speaker 2: of ten bucks on a player, if they have the

1071
00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:41,879
Speaker 2: longest home run of the day, you win your share

1072
00:51:41,920 --> 00:51:46,560
Speaker 2: of one hundred thousand dollars in bonus bets. No opten necessary.

1073

Speaker 2: player you take to hit a home run every Friday. Again,

1076
00:51:55,239 --> 00:51:58,320
