1
00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:02,440
Speaker 1: Under pull up Kitchell.

2
00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:08,639
Speaker 2: Welcome back, everybody, Welcome back. It is Friday, May fifteenth,

3
00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:11,640
Speaker 2: and we have made it to the Subway series. I'm

4
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,120
Speaker 2: gonna have Heidi Watney, who will be covering the game

5
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:18,560
Speaker 2: for Apple TV, on the show in just a little while.

6
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:20,840
Speaker 2: But first we've got a bunch of stuff to cover.

7
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:23,759
Speaker 2: It is Cam Schlitler Knight, so we're gonna zoom in

8
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:25,520
Speaker 2: and take a look at the season that he's having,

9
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:29,240
Speaker 2: also a familiar name pitching against the Yankees tonight, which

10
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 2: honestly it has me a little bit worried. And then

11
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:34,239
Speaker 2: we've got the no Stra Derek predictions. We'll take a

12
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 2: look at Ben Rice versus one Sodo statistically. Then we'll

13
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 2: have your voicemails, and then Heidi will be joining to

14
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:44,280
Speaker 2: you know, give us the sense of the vibe in

15
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 2: these clubhouses. But let's begin with tonight's matchup, which I

16
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 2: find very interesting because we've got Clay Holmes working as

17
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 2: a starter going against the Yankees. Now, Clay Holmes has

18
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 2: no doubt been fantastic for the Mets this year one

19
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 2: point eighty six era, but he's going up against Keller

20
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 2: Cam Cam Schlitzler five to one with a one point

21
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 2: three five ERA. Mets have won three in a row,

22
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,040
Speaker 2: so maybe catching them at a rough time. They are

23
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 2: eighteen and twenty five this season, but they've been playing

24
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 2: a little bit better. They're a two to twenty six

25
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 2: hitting team, but their ERA has not been bad three

26
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 2: point seventy five. They do have a negative seventeen run

27
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:27,559
Speaker 2: differential this season. Juan Soto beginning to heat up, Mark

28
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 2: Viento's leads a team in home runs. They are, of

29
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:34,279
Speaker 2: course without Francisco Lindor, who has been on the injured

30
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 2: list now for a little while and he won't be

31
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:39,399
Speaker 2: back probably for a couple of months. So this is

32
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 2: on Juan Soto to kind of carry this team. And

33
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,959
Speaker 2: I want to kind of zoom out and just talk about,

34
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 2: you know, whether or not he feels like he made

35
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 2: the right decision, because you know, we talked about this

36
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 2: a lot last year that he seemed unhappy, and I

37
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 2: think that he went from being such a great tandem

38
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 2: with Aaron Judge to being, you know, well, he expected

39
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 2: to be the guy with the Mets, but also Lindor

40
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 2: was kind of the guy and a lot of people,

41
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 2: it seems like, have problems with Lindor from what I've heard,

42
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 2: so you know, there was also this weird thing where

43
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:15,360
Speaker 2: Soda was on the injured list and he didn't have

44
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 2: contact with his team. Kind of reminded me of that

45
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 2: scene from Draft Day where that quarterback Bo Callahan nobody

46
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 2: went to his birthday party. So I don't know, there's

47
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 2: a lot of weird stuff going on with Soda. I'm

48
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:28,800
Speaker 2: interested if any Mets fans are watching this, how do

49
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:32,079
Speaker 2: you feel about Soto's second year. We got Carlos Rodin

50
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 2: going in Game two, Ryan Weathers in Game three. No

51
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 2: starter for the Mets announced on Saturday night, but on

52
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 2: Sunday the Yankees will face full kitchen Freddy Peralta. Now

53
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 2: the Mets aren't missing some folks. In addition to Francisco A. Lindor,

54
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 2: they also are missing Francisco Alvarez. Juae Polanco is injured,

55
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 2: Code I Sanga is injured, Luis Robert Junior is injured,

56
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 2: Reed Garrett is on the sixty day il. They got

57
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 2: a lot of guys injured. So Yankees need to get

58
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:05,359
Speaker 2: a strong performance from Cam shortly tonight to set the tone.

59
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 2: And I'm telling you, there is nobody that I would

60
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 2: rather have going up against the Mets' best pitcher than

61
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 2: Cam Schlitzer one point three to five ERA this season,

62
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 2: fifty nine strikeouts and fifty three and a third innings,

63
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 2: a whip of zero point eight one. He's on pace

64
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 2: for eighteen wins. He's on pace for damn near two

65
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 2: hundred innings pitched. I don't know how he's on pace

66
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 2: for our one hundred ninety five and a half innings.

67
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 2: That doesn't really work out the math there, But hitters

68
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 2: not doing very much against him. Left, he's hitting just

69
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 2: one ninety seven. Right, he's hitting just one forty seven.

70
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 2: And on the road where he will be tonight, he

71
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 2: is four and one with a zero point nine to

72
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 2: eight ERA. His velocity has ticked up a little bit

73
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 2: over the last couple of starts. He was touching triple

74
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 2: digits and he credited to some minor mechanical tweaks. Now,

75
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 2: if you look at his career so far since he

76
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 2: came up mid season last year, nine to four with

77
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 2: a two point two eight ERA, and it looks like,

78
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 2: ladies and gentlemen, we finally have our home grown ace.

79
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 2: Now we're gonna do something a little bit different today.

80
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 2: We're gonna get to the Nostra Derek prediction. Early. I

81
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 2: mentioned this in the last episode. I'm taking two players

82
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 2: today to hit home runs. We're going Ben Rice for

83
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,480
Speaker 2: the Yankees and I'm taking Juan Soto for the Mets,

84
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 2: because that's what seems to happen when the Yankees play

85
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 2: somebody who was one of their former studs and that

86
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,839
Speaker 2: you know, they they always or even somebody who sucked,

87
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 2: you know, I mean Oswald Peaza sucked with the Yankees,

88
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 2: and then he crushed the Yankees when he came to town.

89
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,799
Speaker 2: So bottom line is x Yankees tend to just stick

90
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 2: it to him, and I feel like that's gonna happen tonight.

91
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 2: But Ben Rice, I think, will answer. So I've been

92
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 2: doing a lot of comparisons between Rice and Sodo, and

93
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 2: I wanted to build out kind of a new design

94
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 2: here so where we could maybe take a look at

95
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 2: players side by side and and see how they're comparing

96
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 2: to each other. Now, obviously Ben Rice has had a

97
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,719
Speaker 2: few more at bats because Sodo spent about a week

98
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,919
Speaker 2: on the il. Rice also missed a few games with

99
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 2: the hand injury. So Rice has what about twenty eight

100
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 2: more at bats than Sodo, but he's got eight more

101
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:22,159
Speaker 2: home runs. He's hitting, you know, about forty four points higher.

102
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,480
Speaker 2: Ben Rice has been great this year. Ben Rice has

103
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 2: twenty nine RBIs compared to Jan Soto's thirteen. Ben Rice's

104
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 2: ops is one point zero eight zero as opposed to

105
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 2: eight to twenty nine for Sodo. We'll see how this

106
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 2: shakes out at the end of the season. Soto, always

107
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:39,920
Speaker 2: known for his own base percentage, is at three point

108
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 2: fifty eight, whereas Rice is at four thirteen. So, I mean,

109
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 2: this is just astonishing how this has transformed over the

110
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,799
Speaker 2: last couple of years. Rice has become the new Sodo.

111
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 2: They're both twenty seven years old, so presumably long careers

112
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 2: ahead of them for both of these guys. Although Wan

113
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 2: Soto has a significantly higher paycheck than Ben Rice. But

114
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 2: Ben Rice is on pace for a monster, monster season,

115
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 2: and it was good to see him hitting the ball

116
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 2: a little bit harder over the last few days after

117
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 2: he came back, you know, against the Brewers, he went

118
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 2: oh for his first thirteen and he really looked, you know,

119
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:23,720
Speaker 2: lost struggled against the good velocity coming back from my

120
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,840
Speaker 2: hand injury. But he has started to turn it back

121
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 2: on again. And he is on pace for forty eight

122
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,719
Speaker 2: home runs this year, and he's hitting better against lefties

123
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 2: than he is against righty's. He's got a higher OPS,

124
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 2: a higher batting average, he's got five homers versus lefties.

125
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,039
Speaker 2: So I think we can stop with that nonsense of

126
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 2: benching him against lefties. I think that that those days

127
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 2: are behind him for now, even though gold Schmidt, you know,

128
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 2: has played really well. Okay, so we're gonna take a

129
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,719
Speaker 2: few voicemails, and then we're gonna be joined by the

130
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 2: one and only Heidi Watney, no relation to the astronaut

131
00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 2: that got stuck on Mars Mark Wattney. All right, here's

132
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:03,680
Speaker 2: the first call, is.

133
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 3: Brian, what's going on there. I know it's been a

134
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 3: disappointing week of baseball, for sure, and we're probably gonna

135
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 3: get a bunch of calls here talking about that. But

136
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 3: I'm gonna kind of take the opposite approach and say,

137
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 3: this team has come off a bunch of injury news

138
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 3: disappointments over the past week and a half, you know,

139
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 3: starting with Domingas and so on and so forth. I

140
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,119
Speaker 3: just think Judge still hasn't even really got going yet.

141
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 3: This team still is a good team. Jazz still hasn't

142
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 3: looked good yet. I just don't think that's the player

143
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 3: he is. Wells has not really shown much signs of hope.

144
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 3: But besides that, everybody else, I really think this team

145
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 3: is still good enough to turn it around and get

146
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 3: a couple wins here in this Mets series. We're gonna

147
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 3: have Schlitzler going, Rodin's due for a big start in

148
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 3: New York. I just think we still have a long

149
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:11,520
Speaker 3: season and this is probably the best team in the AAR.

150
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 2: I appreciate the call, Brian. I hope so I think

151
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 2: they might be the best team in the AL, but

152
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 2: obviously going through a rough patch right now. You know,

153
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 2: you mentioned a good point about Judge. He really hasn't

154
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 2: gotten a going. He's hitting two sixty eight, but he's

155
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 2: still got sixteen home runs and a one point zero

156
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 2: two two OPS. You would expect him right about now

157
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 2: to have about a twelve or thirteen hundred OPS. Last year,

158
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,559
Speaker 2: he was red hot until about June and then he

159
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 2: slowed down a little bit. But he played in the WBC.

160
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 2: We've seen a lot of guys who played in the

161
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:46,080
Speaker 2: WBC have some trouble. Cal Raley got off to an

162
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 2: unbelievably bad start. I want to pull up cal Rawley's

163
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 2: number because numbers, because he was one of these guys.

164
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 2: You know, he had sixty home runs last year and

165
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 2: then this year got off to an unbelievably bad start,

166
00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 2: one sixty one average. He does have seven home runs

167
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 2: and eighteen RBIs, but just a five to sixty ops.

168
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 2: I mean, there's a lot of guys who you know,

169
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 2: are not getting what they expected statistically. After that WBC

170
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:14,720
Speaker 2: so interesting to keep an eye on next time the

171
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 2: WBC rolls around. He's called abou vulpe.

172
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 4: A lot of things to say about the Yankees right now.

173
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 2: Hey, Derek Hell's everything going? Volpi looks absolutely cooked.

174
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:24,599
Speaker 4: He looks so overmatched.

175
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:27,559
Speaker 3: Again it a lick. I was watching one of the

176
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 3: abs he took, and I think he.

177
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,319
Speaker 2: Took three balls and one of the strikes it took

178
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 2: up the slider right down the middle. He I don't

179
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,680
Speaker 2: know what he's doing. He can't do damage on anything

180
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 2: that's in the zone, and he clearly doesn't walk or anything.

181
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:42,120
Speaker 4: He made an error made in the game as well,

182
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,839
Speaker 4: terrible loss, yeays Child him being the only Yankee to

183
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 4: get a hit.

184
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 2: I don't know what to say. I heard somebody talking

185
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 2: about all right, so yeah, I want to go back

186
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 2: to the Volpi thing. He looked really really bad. He

187
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 2: looked really really bad in that first game. His swing

188
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,840
Speaker 2: was all out of sorts, not that it's ever in sorts,

189
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:07,319
Speaker 2: but his defense. The Yankees hadn't really been making airs

190
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 2: at shortstop. They had made an err at shorts out

191
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 2: the day before from Schumann, but cab i Arra had

192
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,080
Speaker 2: been playing really really well at shortstop. And then Volpi,

193
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,960
Speaker 2: you know, boots the groundball in the eighth inning of

194
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:22,440
Speaker 2: a seven to nothing game. As Joe Gilardy would say,

195
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,679
Speaker 2: it's not what you want. Here's Bob Hey, Derek is

196
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:26,560
Speaker 2: Bob and Ohio.

197
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,959
Speaker 4: Love the content, love the show. I know a Yankee fans,

198
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,559
Speaker 4: and we dissect the heck out of the Yankees and

199
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,120
Speaker 4: everything that's going on. The three thoughts that I have

200
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 4: that we need to work on, see what you think.

201
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:42,199
Speaker 4: One getting a right hand catcher. A lot of people

202
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 4: were talking about trying to eventually get Ryan Jeffers from

203
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 4: Minnesota to something about Jazz. I don't know if we

204
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 4: can play Rosario against lefties and hopefully ignite a fire.

205
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,319
Speaker 4: And Three we all know we need a bullpen piece,

206
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:02,319
Speaker 4: and it's not gonna be weathers for because of Freed

207
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 4: being hurt. So I want to see what you think.

208
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:05,440
Speaker 4: Thanks a lot, job.

209
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 2: I really like the Ryan Jeffers idea. I've seen this

210
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 2: brought up a few times. I also think that the

211
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:15,120
Speaker 2: Yankees could use a closer. You know, David Bednar has

212
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,559
Speaker 2: not been all that impressive to me, three and a

213
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,680
Speaker 2: half e r a, you know, unreliable out of the

214
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 2: closing spot. Jazz Chisholm. Let's let's be honest. He has

215
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 2: not been good. There's a there's a lot of room

216
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 2: for improvement there. Trent Grisham, I think, has been a

217
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 2: little bit better production wise, but still not hitting consistently.

218
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 2: There's a lot of problems. And then Austin Wells, I

219
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:49,000
Speaker 2: mean Austin Wells is just absolute trash. Take a look

220
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,760
Speaker 2: at Wellsy's numbers so far. He's hitting I believe about

221
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 2: one eighty five, not even worse five eighty eight ops.

222
00:11:56,440 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 2: So a lot of problems with this Yankee. He's team.

223
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,600
Speaker 2: Let's take it on the call here. This is Mary.

224
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 5: Beth Hey Deregates, Mary bet it's seven o'clock.

225
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:08,680
Speaker 1: I'm about to hike.

226
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 5: Listen, energy, it's me Energy Focus. This is a really

227
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 5: important series.

228
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:18,079
Speaker 2: For the Yankees.

229
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 1: They have to sweep the mess and.

230
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:28,320
Speaker 5: This is about it is about getting on. Adam Boom

231
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,600
Speaker 5: needs to understand that he needs to. We need to

232
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 5: really be gung ho. We've been playing like crap.

233
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:42,840
Speaker 2: Tell us how you really feel, Mary Beth. All right,

234
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:48,320
Speaker 2: and now I welcome in from Apple TV, longtime baseball

235
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,920
Speaker 2: reporter Heidi Watney, and I will see you after the game.

236
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 2: All right, I'm here with Heidi Watney, one of the

237
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 2: faces and voices you will catch on Apple TV this

238
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 2: weekend as the Yankees kick off a Subway series with

239
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 2: the Crosstown Mets. Heidi, how you doing. I'm great.

240
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 1: I'm great. We got a big Subway series tonight, which

241
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:13,719
Speaker 1: I'm excited about. I love the rivalry games. Fans are

242
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 1: just really amped up. There's a different energy in the ballpark.

243
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:18,560
Speaker 1: So this is going to be a good one tonight,

244
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 1: especially the Mets are coming in hot. They they're feeling

245
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,080
Speaker 1: good right now after that sweep of the Tigers. So

246
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 1: and the Yankees, you know, they're the Yankees and they

247
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 1: always think they should beat everyone, so it should be

248
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 1: a good one tonight.

249
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 2: Well, you know, the Mets have one seven out of

250
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 2: their last ten and the Yankees are just four and

251
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 2: six in their last ten. What vibes are you getting,

252
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,960
Speaker 2: you know, around the ballpark these last couple of days

253
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 2: as you prepare for this game. Do you feel like

254
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,000
Speaker 2: the Mets are feeling confident like they can take this

255
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,600
Speaker 2: series despite the slow start they've had to this season,

256
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:50,439
Speaker 2: And do you feel like the Yankees are just viewing

257
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:52,680
Speaker 2: these last couple of weeks as a hiccup. You know,

258
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:54,960
Speaker 2: got some guys down with injuries, and you know, time

259
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 2: to step on the crosstown rivals there.

260
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:00,560
Speaker 1: You know, I think in terms of the Yankee every

261
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,360
Speaker 1: team is going to go through these little lolls right where,

262
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 1: for whatever reason, they run into some good pitching in

263
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:10,359
Speaker 1: Milwaukee or they just didn't put it together in Baltimore.

264
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,200
Speaker 1: That one was a little more surprising. But you know,

265
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:18,680
Speaker 1: with Freed exiting early, you know, that's that's a tricky one. Thankfully,

266
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 1: it doesn't look like it's anything too serious right.

267
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:21,720
Speaker 2: Now, so.

268
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 1: We're I just think it's one of those things where

269
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 1: teams go through a lole. I think that there it's

270
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 1: easy to get up for a crosstown rival series, a

271
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 1: subway series. Even if you're the Yankees and you think

272
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 1: that you know you're never going to take the Mets lightly, right.

273
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: The Mets have actually have the better record over the

274
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 1: course of the recent history between these two teams, especially

275
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,960
Speaker 1: at City Field, they pretty much dominated the Yankees. I

276
00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:48,680
Speaker 1: don't know if they've got the you know, the fans

277
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 1: behind them or what, but the Mets are coming in

278
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 1: just absolutely on fire, sweeping the Tigers. It's a good

279
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,240
Speaker 1: Tigers team. I know they're struggling a little bit since

280
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 1: Terrek Scooble went down and that news was a pretty

281
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 1: big blow to them. But the thing about the Mets

282
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 1: is that you always knew they had the talent, right.

283
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 1: That's why there's been so many people screaming from the hilltops,

284
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 1: what's wrong with the Mets. They have the talent on

285
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 1: this roster. Sometimes it takes teams just a little bit

286
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 1: to put it together for whatever reason. But I love

287
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 1: the young players that are coming up. Aj Ewing's been

288
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 1: so much fun to watch these last few days. Carson

289
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,120
Speaker 1: Bench has been great to watch this season, and we're

290
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,240
Speaker 1: gonna have a great pitching matchup to kick it off. Tonight,

291
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 1: Cam Schlitler and Clay Holmes. I mean, it really doesn't

292
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 1: get any better than that. Right, Sodo's still looking to

293
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 1: prove to the Yankees fans that you know, everything is

294
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:40,600
Speaker 1: fine in Queens and that they should still miss him.

295
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 1: So I expect a big game from him tonight, and

296
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm looking forward to the series.

297
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:48,160
Speaker 2: It seems like x Yankees always come back to bite them,

298
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 2: whether it's you know, a big star like Sodo or

299
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 2: whether it's Oswald Parraz. It just seems to work out

300
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 2: that way. So it would not shock me if Sodo

301
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 2: has a big series. I wanted to put you on

302
00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:00,440
Speaker 2: the spot here. Cam Schlittler and Nolan McLean, two of

303
00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:02,520
Speaker 2: the best young pitchers in baseball. Obviously they're not going

304
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 2: to be facing each other, but let's say you had

305
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:08,040
Speaker 2: to pick one game to win, Which starter are you

306
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 2: going with? Which young ace?

307
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 1: Oh? That is I mean the way Cam's going right now,

308
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 1: you can't pick against him. I mean, he's literally in

309
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 1: contention for a cy. Young Nolan's been great to watch too.

310
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:23,640
Speaker 1: I got to see his debut last year, and he's

311
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 1: there's so much young talent in the game that's just

312
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 1: so exciting to watch. But right now, with the way

313
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:31,080
Speaker 1: Cam's been going, can't pick against him. And I mean,

314
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 1: she's just such a hulking six seven, just domined on

315
00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 1: the mound. I mean, he's got that presence about him, meant,

316
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 1: and I love the whole like Red Sox turned Yankee

317
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 1: thing with him. It's pretty fun, all right.

318
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 2: So I want to put up a stat here and

319
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 2: I want to show you this. This is interesting. So

320
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 2: they're both wearing number twenty two. Is Rice basically the

321
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 2: new Soto, that lefty righty combination with Judge.

322
00:16:54,640 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 1: Benjamin al Ross. I absolutely love ben Rice. He has

323
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:04,360
Speaker 1: such a wonderful personality. He's such a cool guy, humble guy.

324
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 1: I wouldn't put him in the category of Juan Soto yet.

325
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:12,160
Speaker 1: I mean, Soto has the whole history of just being

326
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 1: a menace at the plate right, his plate coverage, his discipline,

327
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:17,920
Speaker 1: He's going to get there. He had the same start

328
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 1: last year, remember first year in Queens, and everyone's like,

329
00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:22,480
Speaker 1: what's wrong with Soto? He doesn't want to be there.

330
00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:25,080
Speaker 1: His mom made him sign blah blah blah. Right, he

331
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:26,960
Speaker 1: ended up being fine at the end of the year. Right,

332
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 1: So there we go. Hey, it's looking good and Ben

333
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 1: is off to the greatest start of his career for

334
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:36,920
Speaker 1: this season. So I think if you're looking at are

335
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 1: you looking at?

336
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 2: These?

337
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:38,439
Speaker 1: Are this year's numbers.

338
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:41,359
Speaker 2: That's this year so far, those year's numbers. There's so

339
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 2: much twenty eight less bats now Rice has had twenty

340
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 2: eight or sorry, Soda has had twenty eight lessed bats

341
00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:48,680
Speaker 2: because he had the il streak. But yeah, but Rice

342
00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:49,320
Speaker 2: is great.

343
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:52,959
Speaker 1: Well, that's the other thing. This has been a career

344
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:57,320
Speaker 1: year for Ben Rice is this sustainable? It's been seven

345
00:17:57,400 --> 00:17:59,880
Speaker 1: weeks into the season, right, Look, it's great to see.

346
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 1: I love the player. The Yankees believe in him. They

347
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 1: know he can mash. We're seeing him mash. His compliment

348
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,560
Speaker 1: to Judge, and he's a great guy. Awesome. I wouldn't

349
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 1: yet call him the new one Soto because Soto's done

350
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:12,679
Speaker 1: it for quite a bit of time. I mean, he

351
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 1: came up as a nineteen year old, but I think

352
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:17,320
Speaker 1: at the end of the year when we look up,

353
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 1: he's going to have the same numbers that he has

354
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,440
Speaker 1: year in year out. It's just been a bit of

355
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:24,800
Speaker 1: a slow start, but something like a Subway series. He's

356
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:26,920
Speaker 1: a guy like he needs a fire lit under him

357
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 1: for whatever reason, and I think that this series could

358
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:31,160
Speaker 1: be it for him.

359
00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 2: Very interesting. Okay, Carlos Mendoza, is he still in the

360
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,600
Speaker 2: hot seat considering that the Mets have kind of rebounded

361
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,119
Speaker 2: a little bit, or do you think that he's at

362
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:42,000
Speaker 2: least safe for this year.

363
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:45,800
Speaker 1: I would think he's saved for this year. If when

364
00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 1: the Red Sox fired Alex Cora and Rob Thompson got

365
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,200
Speaker 1: fired in Philly, if it wasn't like the knee jerk,

366
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,400
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, this is what's going on and our

367
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:58,240
Speaker 1: team's underperforming, that that would have kind of been the moment.

368
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,360
Speaker 1: Not that like you should do it just because other

369
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:03,320
Speaker 1: teams are doing it right, that's an actual terrible reason

370
00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 1: to fire a manager, but getting that voted confidence from

371
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,919
Speaker 1: the team, getting that vote confidence from David Stearns. And

372
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:13,440
Speaker 1: David Stearns hired this guy. He's not somebody else's manager

373
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 1: that he inherited. He's the guy he vetted. When he

374
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:18,480
Speaker 1: couldn't get Craig Counsel to come over to New York,

375
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:22,200
Speaker 1: he brought in Carlos Mendoza, and I think he's actually

376
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,639
Speaker 1: great for this team. Look, he's not out there with

377
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,680
Speaker 1: bat in hand. He's not out there making the defensive place.

378
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:31,359
Speaker 1: He can do what he can do in collaboration with

379
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:33,960
Speaker 1: the front office, but he's not the guy, and so

380
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:38,920
Speaker 1: when they scapegoat a manager. A Boston situation was very

381
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 1: different from Philly because I think Rob Thompson had a

382
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 1: great relationship with the front office and it was just

383
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,399
Speaker 1: they just wanted needed to do something. And I think

384
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:50,199
Speaker 1: that Dombrowski thought he can get Cora there. But you know,

385
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:54,000
Speaker 1: Cora and Breslo weren't necessarily simpatico. They weren't on the

386
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:58,880
Speaker 1: same page, and you know, the ownership backed their GM.

387
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 1: So those are different situations. I think Mendoza is safe.

388
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:06,600
Speaker 1: I don't think it's also like a performance on the field.

389
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,399
Speaker 1: I think it's part of like looking at the greater

390
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:12,920
Speaker 1: scope of the roster and are these pieces fitting together.

391
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:16,600
Speaker 1: And that's one thing about David Sears. He's so level headed.

392
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 1: He did it for so long in Milwaukee successfully, but

393
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:21,440
Speaker 1: this is a different I've talked to him about this.

394
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,400
Speaker 1: This is a different market in Milwaukee. He could get

395
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 1: those diamond and rough type players that want to come

396
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 1: to Milwaukee because they're going to get playing time. So

397
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,040
Speaker 1: he could get those guys to come in and buy

398
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 1: in because they knew they were going to get an

399
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:38,800
Speaker 1: opportunity to play here in New York. He's not getting

400
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 1: as much buy in from those players that he said, look,

401
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:43,840
Speaker 1: come here, you're going to get a chance whatever, because

402
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 1: they know that New York can just go out and

403
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:47,120
Speaker 1: buy the next big thing.

404
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 2: Right.

405
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:53,440
Speaker 1: So those kind of like middling players that you see

406
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:56,720
Speaker 1: come out of Milwaukee, like where did Bryce Terrain come from?

407
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:58,920
Speaker 1: Where did you know Jackson Jerio come from? He was

408
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:02,880
Speaker 1: a draft pick, But he's not able to convince those

409
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 1: guys to come to New York. So you kind of

410
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:08,280
Speaker 1: have to buy the big stars, and sometimes it takes

411
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:09,919
Speaker 1: a minute for the big stars to jel And I

412
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 1: know Sodo he got going last year and it was

413
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,240
Speaker 1: probably about this time maybe June. I think he's going

414
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,320
Speaker 1: to get going again this year. And like a couple

415
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 1: other other guys. You know, you've got Polongo who's been

416
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,360
Speaker 1: a great player, he's hurt. You got Luise Robert he's

417
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:26,640
Speaker 1: hurt as well. So I think seeing these young guys

418
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:28,600
Speaker 1: come up and provide some energy is great for the

419
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 1: fan base and it's also great for the team. It

420
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 1: just kind of gives everybody a shot in the arm.

421
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 2: All right, last question for Clay Holmes on the mound

422
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,880
Speaker 2: tonight for the New York Mets. He is a one

423
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:42,160
Speaker 2: point eighty six ERA this year as a starting pitcher.

424
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:44,800
Speaker 2: What's been the secret to his success? You know, he

425
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,680
Speaker 2: was obviously a relief pitcher with the Yankees. He became

426
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,000
Speaker 2: a starter last year. He did okay, but he's off

427
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:51,200
Speaker 2: to a great start this year.

428
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 1: He is also a great start this year. You know.

429
00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 1: The interesting thing about him is the reason he ended

430
00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:58,760
Speaker 1: up with the Mets is because they said they would

431
00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:00,439
Speaker 1: give him a chance as a starter, and that's what

432
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:02,280
Speaker 1: he wanted to be. He did not want to stay

433
00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 1: in the bullpen. And even though last year started off

434
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 1: really rough for him, the Mets stuck with him. They

435
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,080
Speaker 1: kept to their promise and they're seeing that pay dividend.

436
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,560
Speaker 1: Sometimes it takes a little bit more of a transition

437
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,159
Speaker 1: as you're working in you know, more pitches, more feel,

438
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 1: more length, more endurance, right, And we're seeing it come

439
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:20,560
Speaker 1: to fruition this year and he's going to be as

440
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,560
Speaker 1: motivated as ever going against his former team that wouldn't

441
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 1: let him start, that kept him in the bullpen. So

442
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:30,760
Speaker 1: I'm interested to see how he does tonight because I

443
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,440
Speaker 1: know emotionally that's one of the things that's tough when

444
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 1: you're pitching against the team that you played with for

445
00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 1: so long, right, So harnessing that's going to be important

446
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 1: for him. But I think it's just a matter of

447
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:45,960
Speaker 1: it all coming together, right, the endurance, the mixing and

448
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 1: his pitches and how you're attacking hitters, right, that's a

449
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,679
Speaker 1: bigger thing. When you're coming out of the bullpen. It's like,

450
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,679
Speaker 1: you know, two pitches, just blow past a couple of

451
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:57,520
Speaker 1: guys and in out and you get your three outs

452
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:00,840
Speaker 1: and you're moving on. As a starter, you have to

453
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,480
Speaker 1: game plan a lot more, and I think that's something

454
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:05,639
Speaker 1: that his game has really evolved over the course the

455
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:06,200
Speaker 1: last year.

456
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 2: Well, we can look forward to all of it beginning

457
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:11,760
Speaker 2: tonight on Apple TV, which I gotta say, I got

458
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 2: to give a shout out to Apple TV. Their coverage

459
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 2: is awesome, the picture is crisp. I love the score

460
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 2: bugs and the stats, so great job. Give kudos to

461
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:23,560
Speaker 2: the team over there for me, Heidi, thanks so much

462
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:25,240
