And 52 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 2: before we do that, just in case there is a 53 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 2: Game seven. If there is a Game seven, Kevin Polar 54 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 2: will be at a lid store near the ball. We 55 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 2: will give you more information at the end of this segment. 56 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 2: But here's a little sneak peak. One o'clock Eastern time, 57 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 2: three ninety nine Queen Street West. It's a brand new 58 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,520 Speaker 2: lid store one o'clock Eastern time. You can chat and 59 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 2: hang out with KP. Be there for about an hour. 60 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 2: So if there's a Game seven, if you're in Toronto, 61 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 2: KP will be there and we'll remind you at the 62 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,959 Speaker 2: end of the segment as well. But KP, how do 63 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 2: the Blue Jays prevent that from happening? 64 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 7: Well, they got to go through the best picture in 65 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 7: the postseason. But that's kind of been theirm pretty much 66 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 7: all season. If you go back and look at the 67 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 7: starting pitchers they've beaten, but just think about the pictures 68 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 7: they've beaten in the postseason. You know, you know, obviously 69 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 7: you're gonna face great pitching in the playoffs, but the 70 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 7: teams that they face the Yankees, the Mariners. They didn't 71 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 7: have scrubs, you know, running out there Games one and two. 72 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 7: They've beaten Blake Snell twice already, they got to they 73 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 7: got to Tyler Glass. Now you know, ultimately he wasn't 74 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 7: charged with the l in that game because it went forever. 75 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 7: It actually was two games worth. But you know, if 76 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 7: they want to be the best, they got an opportunity 77 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 7: to beat the best picture in the world tonight, and 78 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 7: that's what they're gonna have to do if people don't 79 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 7: want to see me at the lid store tomorrow. So 80 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 7: I'm hoping to wrap it up here in game six 81 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 7: and get home and see my family. But if the 82 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 7: Jay's aren't able to do it today, I'll gladly be 83 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 7: at the store tomorrow. 84 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, that lid store is not going to have any 85 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 5: more hats left. But yes, I understand they beat Blake Snell. 86 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 5: They didn't really beat him that great. Like I'm not 87 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 5: going with the they were unluck they were lucky. I'm 88 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,479 Speaker 5: saying it wasn't like they dominated Blake Snell. I just 89 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 5: don't see the path to get to Yamamoto. Do you 90 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,039 Speaker 5: feel like there is a there is a change that 91 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 5: can be made by the lineup to be able to 92 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 5: do it, to be able to beat Yamamoto. Who I 93 00:04:55,680 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 5: counted it. I got this from a friend. Fifteen three 94 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:04,720 Speaker 5: ball pitches that he's thrown in the entire postseason. Fifteen 95 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,359 Speaker 5: So he's okay with you being aggressive because he's not 96 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 5: really giving you anything. So how do the Jays or 97 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,040 Speaker 5: is it just something where hey, you know what, somebody 98 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:15,719 Speaker 5: pops one, Gosman goes nine. 99 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, I don't even think Gosman needs to 100 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:19,720 Speaker 7: go nine. I mean, I think the back end of 101 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 7: their bullpen's been really good, especially late in the postseason. 102 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 7: But you know, if you go back to Game two, 103 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 7: when he threw the complete game, it was one to 104 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 7: one going to the seventh inning, and Gosman made two mistakes. 105 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 7: He wasn't really even a bad pitch to Will Smith. 106 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 7: He threw a fast wallpin in. He turned them one. 107 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 7: Maxi got one out over the plate, hit one into 108 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 7: the bullpen. But he went toe to toe with him. 109 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 7: He wasn't quite as dominant as Yamamoto was. But that's 110 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 7: been the big thing with the starting pitching for the 111 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 7: Blue Jays. Can you just keep him in the game. 112 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,600 Speaker 7: If Gosman could keep him in the game within striking distance, 113 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,480 Speaker 7: you know they got a chance. But an article came 114 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 7: out today about Yamamoto and what makes him even more 115 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 7: difficult than the arsenal pitches he has. He never faces 116 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 7: you the same way the same time. His sequence of 117 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 7: pitching is always different. And I you know, I'm gonna 118 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,360 Speaker 7: have an opportunity to go on our pregame show today 119 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 7: and talk about what kind of my approach is going 120 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 7: to be, and I'm I'm kind of sitting here thinking 121 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 7: about what the hell would I do with the guy 122 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 7: who's got six seven pitches. He constantly changes the way 123 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 7: he pitches you up, and I think you just got it. 124 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 7: Like you said, I think you got to sit there 125 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 7: and go. You know, more than likely he's gonna get 126 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:29,479 Speaker 7: me out once or twice and maybe three times. But 127 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 7: can I get him one time? And that's kind of 128 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,039 Speaker 7: how this series has felt. Like if one guy or 129 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 7: two guys can put a good swing on a pitch, 130 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 7: you know, that could be the difference. The Dodgers are 131 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,039 Speaker 7: not swinging the bat really well right now. I don't 132 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 7: think we're accustomed to seeing a Dodger lineup really struggle 133 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,720 Speaker 7: the way that it's been struggling. You know, if you're 134 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 7: the Blue Jays, I think that's what you got to 135 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 7: do is I don't think you got to really try 136 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 7: to overcomplicate it, try to figure out how he's going 137 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,480 Speaker 7: to pitch you, because he's so good at changing that up. 138 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 7: I think you stay with what you want to do 139 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 7: as a hitter. You might not get in the first 140 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:00,080 Speaker 7: at bat, you might not get in the second, you 141 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:01,239 Speaker 7: might not even get in the third. 142 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 8: But if you if you're ready. 143 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 7: For your pitch, it feels like it's going to be 144 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 7: a one swing of the bat type of game. Uh 145 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 7: for the Blue Jays in order to get to Yamamoto. 146 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 2: This episode of FT is brought to you by Fuel. 147 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 2: Cheers Ers, we got a new fuel addition here, the 148 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 2: daily Greens.

Is there 175 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 3: something you can do against Gosman that you see that 176 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:30,239 Speaker 3: they can exploit? 177 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 4: I don't see much. Yeah. 178 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 7: I mean if you watch a game pretty intently, you know, 179 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 7: in Game two it did seem like the Dodgers' hitters 180 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,559 Speaker 7: were a little bit in between. It kind of felt 181 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 7: like they went into a kind of with a game 182 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 7: plan of maybe trying not to chase the splitter, and 183 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 7: it seemed like they were late on a lot of fastballs. 184 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 4: You know. 185 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 7: Maybe that's the adjustment they make, is like, Okay, we're 186 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 7: striking out a ton. 187 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 4: You know. 188 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,320 Speaker 7: Maybe they tried it with Tray Savage, like hey, don't 189 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 7: get caught in, you know, but the stuff was just 190 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 7: so good. Maybe they just changed their approach up and 191 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 7: they try to be super aggressive, be willing to swing 192 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 7: through a little bit more pitches, not being caught in between. 193 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 7: Because Gosman was throwing a ton of strikes. He was 194 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 7: throwing a ton of fastballs in the zone. You know, 195 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 7: they weren't all middle fastballs, but he was in the 196 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 7: zone a ton, and he was getting a ton of 197 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 7: foul balls, and then he was able to kind of 198 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 7: set up his two secondary pitches, you know, mostly the splitter, 199 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 7: to get a lot of swing and miss. But if 200 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 7: you're the Dodgers, you know, maybe you have to go 201 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 7: against what has gotten you here all year, and maybe 202 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 7: when you get to that middle bottom part of that 203 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 7: order that's usually so dynamic maybe you got to figure 204 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 7: out a way to play a little. 205 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 5: Bit more small ball. 206 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 7: You know, maybe look for some guys, you know, like 207 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 7: show Hey or Mookie and even Freddy if they're able 208 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 7: to get on, try to steal some bases. I know, 209 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,319 Speaker 7: Kirk's a tough guy to steal against. Gosman's pretty good 210 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 7: at holding runners. But they just haven't shown the ability 211 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 7: that they're gonna just kind of, you know, string together 212 00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 7: three or four or five good at bats, a walk, 213 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:01,840 Speaker 7: you know, a couple hits. You know, that's really what 214 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 7: the Dodger or the Blue Jays had been able to do, 215 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 7: aside from having those you know, solo homers or maybe 216 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:12,080 Speaker 7: two run homers. We always talk, you always hear Buck 217 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,679 Speaker 7: Martinez talk about it on the broadcast, a Blue Jay 218 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 7: type of inning, and it usually starts with a walk 219 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 7: or you know, a misplay, and then you got first 220 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,319 Speaker 7: and third, and then there's a sackfly. Then they're kind 221 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,199 Speaker 7: of just able to manufacture runs and put up crooked 222 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 7: numbers on the scoreboard. Right now, for the Dodgers, it 223 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 7: kind of seems all or nothing, like they're relying on 224 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:31,840 Speaker 7: a show a homer, a Freddie homer, a Will Smith 225 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 7: Homer A Max Munsey Homer. I don't know how they're 226 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 7: gonna be able to kind of manufacture runs against Osman, 227 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 7: who's you know, really good at eliminating base runners. But 228 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:41,200 Speaker 7: they're gonna have to figure out a way to try 229 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 7: to kind of string multiple hits together. I don't see 230 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:46,680 Speaker 7: it happening. 231 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 5: Though. We're not as lucky as you Canadians because we 232 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 5: don't get to hear Buck Martinez. We get to hear 233 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 5: all about Shoho Tani, and that's pretty much it that 234 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,559 Speaker 5: we get to hear here in the States. But my 235 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 5: question to you is, you've been kind of around the 236 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 5: You've been around the clubhouse, around the dugout there handicapped 237 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 5: me a George Springer getting in this game type of moment. 238 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 5: Is it a start? And I also want your opinion, 239 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,439 Speaker 5: based on what they've done the last two games, should 240 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 5: they push a sixty percent George Springer to be in 241 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 5: the lineup. 242 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 7: God, that's a great question because they've kept it really 243 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:28,199 Speaker 7: under wraps around here. I mean, I think we also 244 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,439 Speaker 7: we saw on TV, you know, obliques aren't one of 245 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:33,760 Speaker 7: those things, and they haven't even kind of ruled it 246 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 7: as an oblique. They're calling it a side injury. They're 247 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:38,559 Speaker 7: they're taking a book out of uh, you know, hockey, 248 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 7: which is very popular here in Canada, and they're just 249 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 7: labeling it a upper body injury. You know, there's not 250 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 7: a lot of details and there's a lot of hush 251 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 7: hush about it. And to be honest with you, I 252 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,079 Speaker 7: was very surprised that they he was even on the 253 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:54,320 Speaker 7: roster the next day. It felt like, especially after eighteen 254 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,680 Speaker 7: in game, they had all the reason in the world 255 00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 7: to replace him on the roster, maybe add another arm, 256 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 7: because they went through everyone in that eighteen in a game, 257 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,559 Speaker 7: and then there was rumors about him being available, whether 258 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 7: it was to pinch run or potentially pinch hit. And 259 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 7: credit to the credit to the Blue Jays. The way 260 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 7: the last two games has gone, they haven't really had 261 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 7: to tip their hand if he is available or not available. 262 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 7: And now kind of the rumor around here is he 263 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 7: could be in the starting lineup today. But I find 264 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 7: it hard to believe. I've never really seen a player 265 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 7: call for the trainer and the manager to come out 266 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 7: of the dugout after taking a swing. Fortunately, in my 267 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 7: career I never had a side or an oblique injury, 268 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 7: so I don't really know what that feels like. But 269 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 7: I've never seen a player leave the game under his 270 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 7: own power, under his own guidance, with a side injury 271 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 7: and be able to bounce back in a day or two. 272 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 7: But maybe it was a cramp, maybe it was something. 273 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 7: Maybe there's a lot of gamesmanship going on here. But 274 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:51,960 Speaker 7: you know, as I'm sitting here right now in Toronto 275 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 7: listening to you know, the local media here checking my 276 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 7: Twitter feed, they're definitely making it seem like there is 277 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 7: a possible that George Springer could be in the lineup 278 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,320 Speaker 7: at some point. Is it the best decision? I mean, 279 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 7: only the Blue Jays and George know how he's feeling. 280 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:09,720 Speaker 7: I mean, George Springer at the top of the lineup 281 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:15,679 Speaker 7: at sixty, you know, could be a good option. I mean, 282 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 7: I think, you know, the blessing in the guys we've 283 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 7: all kind of talked about is when George went down, 284 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 7: it's given Bo the ability to stay in the game 285 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,079 Speaker 7: the entirety of the game and DH and kind of 286 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,439 Speaker 7: stay off that knee. And he's been unbelievable what he's 287 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:30,440 Speaker 7: been able to do at sixty. 288 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 8: Could could the Blue. 289 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 7: Jays potentially have two guys rolling out there in the 290 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 7: biggest game in recent history for this franchise with guys, 291 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 7: you know, probably closer to fifty percent, could be interesting. 292 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely. And on the flip side of it, you 293 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:50,080 Speaker 3: think of the Dodgers too. Dave Roberts said he's going 294 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 3: to do anything it takes to win. I mean, that's simple. 295 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 3: Of course he's going to do that, And he did 296 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 3: not rule out Otani coming into pitch. Now if he 297 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 3: dh is deludes that DH spot. What are your thoughts 298 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 3: on that? Is there a possibility we might see him tonight? 299 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 7: First of all, I just love the you know, we 300 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:09,559 Speaker 7: laugh at it, right, you know, the stating the obvious. 301 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 7: We'll do whatever it takes to win. Well, I would 302 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 7: hope so, because if not, you're going home. 303 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 4: No, I don't. 304 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 7: I don't see a scenario that Otani comes in and 305 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 7: pitches in this game unless it's to close it out. 306 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 7: You're not gonna take as bad out of the lineup there. 307 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 7: There's no one that you can replace him with. I 308 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 7: mean it has to you know, the stars would have 309 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 7: to align, you know, his spot in the order would 310 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 7: have to be had just come up. He would have 311 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 7: to have an opportunity to maybe get down to the bullpen. 312 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 7: You know, maybe they figured out a way underneath in 313 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 7: the visiting cages there they could have one of those 314 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 7: rollaway mounds. 315 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:45,360 Speaker 5: I don't, I don't. 316 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 8: I don't see it happening today. 317 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 7: It seems like a more likely scenario maybe if they're 318 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,320 Speaker 7: able to get to a game seven where maybe they 319 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 7: have the comfort in him coming in and throwing multiple 320 00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 7: innings out of the bullpen and then really kind of 321 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 7: trying to figure out what to do from there. But 322 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 7: I mean, it's an amazing thing that we even can 323 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 7: have this conversation that there's a baseball player in this 324 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 7: world that is such a talented player on both sides 325 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 7: of the ball where it's a realistic possibility that he 326 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 7: could come in and not obviously not start today, but 327 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:21,640 Speaker 7: come in out of the bullpen. But I mean, starting 328 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 7: is already so difficult for him to do. Obviously you 329 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 7: have the entire pregame to prep. But it's one of 330 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 7: those things why we probably haven't seen it yet is 331 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 7: it's just the timing of you know, what if he's 332 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 7: what if he's left at second base and he hasn't 333 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 7: a chance to warm up, What if he's the guy 334 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 7: on deck. You know, it just kind of a perfect 335 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 7: storm of events would have to take place in order 336 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 7: for them and probably show Hey to feel comfortable, you know, 337 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 7: having enough time to warm up. 338 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 5: Do we believe that show Hey can't win a goal 339 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 5: glove and right field? Like, let's say it comes in 340 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 5: in the ninth inning. Rokie's already pitched his three innings. Yell, mooto, 341 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 5: and it's a tie ball game. Show Hay comes in, 342 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 5: throws his inning. They don't have to rehim. I don't. 343 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 4: I don't. 344 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 5: I don't think. I don't. 345 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 7: He hasn't shown anyone any reason why he probably couldn't 346 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 7: go out there and be great at playing right field. 347 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 7: And I'm obviously not around the team. You know, show Hey, 348 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 7: from everything I've heard, doesn't seem like a guy who's 349 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 7: out taking VP all the time. And if he is 350 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 7: taking VP, he's not a guy who's out there you know, 351 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 7: shagg and fly balls when he's not hitting. But I 352 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 7: would put nothing past this guy for him to be 353 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 7: able to go out there and stand in right fielder 354 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 7: and not only stand out there, I think he'd be 355 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 7: a pretty good outfielder. He's a freak athlete. You saw 356 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 7: kind of what he kind of turned into as a 357 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 7: baseball player last year when he didn't have the responsibility 358 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 7: of having to pitch, he became this the first ever 359 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 7: fifty to fifty guy. He just said, you know what, 360 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 7: I don't have to pitch. I can, you know, absorb 361 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 7: a little more wear and tear on my body. Let 362 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 7: me just go out and steal sixty bases because I can. 363 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:59,560 Speaker 7: So I'd put nothing past this guy. 364 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 5: Your boots on the ground have to ask this. We 365 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 5: don't have anybody else in Toronto. Is Toronto a home 366 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 5: field advantage for the for the Blue Jays? 367 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:11,439 Speaker 8: Absolutely absolutely. 368 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 7: I think in terms of crowd noise, I think in 369 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,400 Speaker 7: terms of buzz, I think in terms of, you know what, 370 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 7: as much as a baseball fan can kind of provide 371 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 7: for its home team, I think Toronto's right there at 372 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 7: the top of the list when the roof is closed. 373 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:27,840 Speaker 7: I don't think there's a better place. But we've talked 374 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:29,880 Speaker 7: about this on this show. I've talked about on every show. 375 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 7: I think baseball is a very reactionary sport. You know, 376 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:40,640 Speaker 7: momentum is, momentum is real, and fan participation and energy 377 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 7: and loudness is real, and it's gonna be an electric 378 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 7: scene from probably the moment the gates open during batting practice, 379 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:52,440 Speaker 7: through the Canadian anthem, through the American anthem, up until 380 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:56,920 Speaker 7: first pitch, and it will remain that way until they 381 00:17:56,960 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 7: have a reason not to. You know, it's probably I mean, 382 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 7: this is like staying the obvious of you know, all 383 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,880 Speaker 7: hands on deck an elimination game. But it is very 384 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 7: important that the others figure out a way to kind 385 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 7: of figure out a way to silence that crowd early, 386 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 7: whether it's you know, manufacturing a run in the first inning, 387 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:19,480 Speaker 7: you know, solo homer, because if not, that momentum is 388 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,159 Speaker 7: just gonna keep building and building, and the noise and 389 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:26,880 Speaker 7: you know, but I also, and I've also talked about 390 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:28,719 Speaker 7: this too, I think there's also a ton of pressure 391 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 7: when you have such a passionate fan base, an energetic 392 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 7: fan base, a starving fan base, one that is waited 393 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 7: a long time to be one game away from winning 394 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:42,680 Speaker 7: a World seriously series, You got to imagine the pressure 395 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,359 Speaker 7: that the ballplayers feel shown up to the field today. 396 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 7: I mean, I left my hotel room at eight thirty 397 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:51,000 Speaker 7: this morning, and I kid you not, there was about 398 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 7: a thousand people in line already, whether that was to 399 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,400 Speaker 7: get merchandise, whether that was you know, people that buy 400 00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:59,119 Speaker 7: those general admission tickets to standing area to wait in line. 401 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:02,720 Speaker 7: But there was over a thousand people there lined up. 402 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,399 Speaker 7: So I can only imagine what it's gonna be like 403 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 7: as a player, whether you know, you uber to the stadium, 404 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 7: you walk, you ride a scooter, you park in the 405 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:13,879 Speaker 7: and the parking lot there. I mean if I look 406 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 7: down my window right now, it's probably multiplied five times 407 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,199 Speaker 7: right now. Like this city is vibrant, it's electric. You know, 408 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 7: it's the talk of the town rightfully. So so you know, 409 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 7: with that comes a little added pressure. But I mean, 410 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 7: this is a team that has faced so much adversity 411 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,440 Speaker 7: just I mean, not even during the regular season. Let's 412 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,199 Speaker 7: just talk about what they faced in the postseason. You know, 413 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 7: losing Bobashet, going down the stretch, having to win a 414 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:40,439 Speaker 7: one sixty two to to win the division, to give 415 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:43,199 Speaker 7: them a bye week, you know, have to go in 416 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 7: New York to win some games, to be down two 417 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:49,800 Speaker 7: against Seattle, going into a hostile environment, being down three 418 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 7: to two to Seattle to to to win this and 419 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 7: then ultimately going up against you know, the elite of 420 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 7: the elite with the Dodgers, you know, a juggernaut, the 421 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:01,439 Speaker 7: defending champions to it was an eighteen inning game and 422 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 7: come back and be unfazed. If there was ever a 423 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 7: team that is built to kind of handle everything that 424 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:11,120 Speaker 7: we're talking about, from a home field advantage, from nerves, 425 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:14,120 Speaker 7: from understanding, you know, I was never in this situation. 426 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 7: I can't even imagine what it was like going to 427 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,840 Speaker 7: bed last night knowing, you know, one more sleep and 428 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:22,679 Speaker 7: I could be a World Series championship, a champion. It 429 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 7: has to enter your mind. But this team is just 430 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 7: so steady with their approach the day to day. You 431 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:31,720 Speaker 7: watch them come out for BP every day, you watch 432 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,640 Speaker 7: them stretch. It's just if it looks like they're playing 433 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 7: spring training games like there's there's no heartbeat. It's a 434 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 7: ton of fun. It's a ton of passion, constantly deflecting 435 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:45,159 Speaker 7: the attention from themselves to their teammates. This team is 436 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 7: really really kind of built for this moment. 437 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, and last question for me, every time I see 438 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 3: this picture, I forgot I have a mask on. Last 439 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:58,359 Speaker 3: question for me, real simple. Vlad Guerrero Junior bro the 440 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:03,359 Speaker 3: guy's absolutely unstoppable. How do you get this guy out? 441 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 3: I'm telling you right now, you think about what he's doing, 442 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:08,800 Speaker 3: it's Otani esque, if not better, what he's doing in 443 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:12,200 Speaker 3: this World Series. He's the MVP, undoubtedly if they win 444 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,159 Speaker 3: the World Series. How do you find a way to 445 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 3: stop this guy from getting home runs, doubles, hitting the 446 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 3: ball hard? 447 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 4: Basically, yeah, I don't. 448 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 7: I don't think there is a way right now. I 449 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:23,479 Speaker 7: think you gotta. I think you've got to give him 450 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:25,679 Speaker 7: the treatment right now. I mean if i'm if I'm 451 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 7: and obviously you gotta trust Yamamoto because he's given you 452 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 7: a reason not to. But the first step bat would 453 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 7: be very telling to me. I mean, I would go 454 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 7: after him because Yamamoto's arguably the best picture in the 455 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 7: world right now. He's definitely the best picture in the postseason. 456 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 7: But if Lottie's able to either hit a ball hard 457 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,440 Speaker 7: off him, you know, reach first base, get a hit. 458 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 7: If I'm the Dodgers, I'm not losing a World Series. 459 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:53,080 Speaker 7: I'm not losing this series because we just continue to 460 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:56,439 Speaker 7: face Vladdie. He has shown no ability to have a 461 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 7: weakness in his swing. He's shown no ability to really 462 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 7: chase outside at the zone. He's taking his walks. He's 463 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 7: content with taking hits, you know, when he gets later 464 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,399 Speaker 7: in the count or you know he's facing tough pitching. 465 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:12,919 Speaker 7: You know, he's set a franchise record for home runs. 466 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 7: He's a complete package right now. But you have to 467 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 7: give a ton of credit to the guys hitting around 468 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 7: him too, because you know, it's hard to put a 469 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 7: guy on base when the guys behind him are also producing. 470 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 7: Obviously not at the same level of Vlad, but it's 471 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,880 Speaker 7: the main reason that you know, the Blue Jays did 472 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,959 Speaker 7: what they did in the eighteen in game because they 473 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:37,439 Speaker 7: had a struggling guy hitting behind Otani. And obviously the 474 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 7: guy hitting behind him is a first ballot Hall of Famer, 475 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 7: but recency bias is real. What have you done for 476 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 7: me lately? And he hasn't been able to do much. 477 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:48,439 Speaker 7: And fortunately for Vladi, the guys hitting behind him have 478 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 7: been able to not only carry their weight, but they've 479 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 7: been great. So it's a tough thing that the Dodgers 480 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,639 Speaker 7: are having to navigate because Vlati has been unstoppable. But 481 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 7: putting a guy on first, you know, every single time, 482 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 7: and not taking your chances knowing that there's a lot 483 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:06,680 Speaker 7: of protection behind them is also a risky move. 484 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:10,920 Speaker 2: Ap, you're the man, this is it. This could be 485 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 2: your last broadcast of the year. I feel like you've 486 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 2: been doing this for years now, but you actually were 487 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:18,920 Speaker 2: playing some Major League baseball earlier this year, so you've 488 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 2: transitioned back. 489 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:21,919 Speaker 7: I'll tell you what, though, give a credit to a 490 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 7: lot of these players, right because I don't want to 491 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 7: sit here and sound like I'm ungrateful when I'm complaining. 492 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 7: But the travel has been a lot, like I'm I'm like, 493 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:35,160 Speaker 7: I'm fatigued, like coming here. Yeah, I don't have the adrenaline. 494 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:37,120 Speaker 7: I mean, I do still feel it when I'm up there, 495 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 7: you know, watching the game, and obviously when I'm here, 496 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:41,879 Speaker 7: like the fans are still great to me, Like I 497 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:44,960 Speaker 7: still like, you know, my heart beats fast for the game, 498 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:47,679 Speaker 7: and that's how I know I still care.

Did you 554 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:26,439 Speaker 5: see Tommy Edmonds ad bats against you Savage the other night? 555 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:31,159 Speaker 4: I saw one at bat versus Savage. Yes, not all. 556 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 5: He chose to hit right handed switch hitter. He did it. 557 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:37,639 Speaker 5: He did it the other he did it earlier in 558 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:43,120 Speaker 5: the season against Estrada, Jeremiah Estrada. First, First of all, 559 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,440 Speaker 5: I would have loved to have been been a switch 560 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 5: hitter because you never see that ball coming at you 561 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:51,879 Speaker 5: and you get the old like oh oh. And then 562 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 5: to go ahead and do it in the World Series 563 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:55,479 Speaker 5: because he did it in Game one and he did 564 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 5: it in Game five. The interesting thought process to me, 565 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 5: and I want to see what you think about this 566 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:05,160 Speaker 5: is Yo, I think it's I think it's just a 567 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:07,919 Speaker 5: it's a very it's a bold move to take your 568 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,600 Speaker 5: right handed at bats against a righty. But since he's 569 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 5: coming so high up over, you know, maybe it looked 570 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:16,199 Speaker 5: like a left hander because he was so his release 571 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 5: point was so high. 572 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 4: Yeah. 573 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:20,880 Speaker 3: And I I mean, for me, I want to bring 574 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:22,920 Speaker 3: in Timmy Kirch and ask him about it. Hey, Kurch, 575 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,240 Speaker 3: what do you think about my mask? Big dog? Can 576 00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:25,640 Speaker 3: you see? 577 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 8: Is that a mask? I thought that was just you 578 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:29,880 Speaker 8: in real life. 579 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:32,679 Speaker 4: Oh you know, you know what, big dog, You're in 580 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 4: some trouble for that one. I didn't like that. That 581 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,120 Speaker 4: was not fair, not fair at all. 582 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 8: Jim, does it say? 583 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:40,959 Speaker 4: Dad? 584 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 8: There is that right? 585 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 4: My daughter made it for me? Actually, yes, yeah. 586 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 8: When my son Jeff was seven, he went out to 587 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:54,720 Speaker 8: Halloween dressed as meat. So he had an ESPN microphone 588 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 8: with an ESPN mic flag and he was wearing a 589 00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 8: little black suit, and like ninety percent of the people said, 590 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 8: who the hell are you like that? No idea? He 591 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:10,199 Speaker 8: was going poor poppap heer. So yes, so that I 592 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:12,440 Speaker 8: think you look great, Todd, And so do you, Cratzy? 593 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,160 Speaker 8: You look great too.

So 596 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:23,119 Speaker 8: are you just being yourself? 597 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,880 Speaker 5: Is that it grew? I am grew. I am grew 598 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 5: from Minions and Despicable Me right right. 599 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:35,920 Speaker 8: My grandson Carson's second birthday, I went as Doctor Nefario 600 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 8: from Despicable Me. And he's my best friend, my grandson. 601 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 8: When I showed up in that outfit and I'm all 602 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 8: covered up, goggles, had all that stuff. He didn't know 603 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 8: who I was, and he got really afraid that I 604 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 8: was the real doctor Nefario it was so I took 605 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 8: it all off and said, Carson, it's me Pop Pop, 606 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 8: don't worry. So yes, we have Halloween costumes for sure. 607 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 5: Tim You sound like an incredible grandfather and you are 608 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 5: an incredible baseball fan. First of all, just a big, 609 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 5: high level question for you, What the heck's gonna happen 610 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 5: in the game tonight, Tim. 611 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:20,840 Speaker 8: Eric, I have been wrong so many times during the 612 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 8: regular season, the postseason, including the World Series. It's not 613 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:28,440 Speaker 8: even funny. Me and a million other people have been 614 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 8: totally wrong. I just told everyone the Dodgers have a 615 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:35,960 Speaker 8: pitching advantage in Games four and five, and of course 616 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 8: they lost both games. Eduardo Perez, World's greatest teammate, we 617 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 8: were going over Game five. What was gonna happen? He said, 618 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 8: I think they get you savage tonight. That's what I think, 619 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 8: and then he, of course, he throws one of the 620 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 8: greatest games ever. Anybody who actually thinks we know what's 621 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 8: gonna happen tonight hasn't been watching the twenty twenty five season, 622 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 8: especially the postseason. Most unpredictable season I've ever seen. It 623 00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 8: has been glory for that reason. To answer your question, 624 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 8: I think Yamamodo's gonna throw another Gem tonight and I 625 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 8: think the Dodgers are gonna win. But if you believe that, 626 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 8: then I've been wrong. We've all been wrong so many times. 627 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 4: Good thank you for that. Tim. 628 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:23,120 Speaker 3: Anyway, talking about Vlatty Guerrero Jr. And Vladdy Guerrero Senor, 629 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:26,480 Speaker 3: I mean, look at the historical runs that vlat Guerrero Jr. 630 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 4: Has been on. 631 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 3: Talk a little bit about both of these guys and 632 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:32,840 Speaker 3: how really, just how fantastic is There's no way of 633 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:33,720 Speaker 3: getting this guy out. 634 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:34,760 Speaker 4: There's no flaws. 635 00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 8: Yeah, he's incredible. He's hitting over four hundred in the postseason. 636 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 8: He's got twenty nine hits, he's got eight homers, and 637 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 8: he's struck out five times. Eight homers, five strikeouts in 638 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:51,479 Speaker 8: this strikeout era is absolutely unbelievable. I had a scout 639 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,800 Speaker 8: tell me before the postseason began. He said, this is 640 00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 8: gonna be the postseason of Vlattie Junior. You watch went 641 00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 8: what and that's exact exactly what it has been. Also, 642 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 8: Todd Eric, he is an above average defensive first baseman. 643 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 8: He runs way better than people think. He's got great 644 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 8: instincts for the game, which of course he got from 645 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 8: his father. He is a complete all round player, and 646 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 8: yet sometimes we just think of him as this lumbering, big, 647 00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 8: unathletic first baseman. I can promise you he is the 648 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 8: furthest thing from that. I knew he was a good 649 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,640 Speaker 8: all round player. He's even better than I thought, but 650 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 8: the way he has swung the bat in this postseason 651 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 8: has been absolutely incredible. I asked Ernie Clement, you know, 652 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:39,200 Speaker 8: how do how do we explain Flattie? He goes, there's 653 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 8: no explaining Flattie. He's too good. There's no explanation for 654 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 8: how great he is. 655 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:47,280 Speaker 5: All right, and then I have to be negative Nelly here, 656 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:51,600 Speaker 5: since I'm I'm guru today, What is wrong with Mookie Betts? 657 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 5: Do you ever believe that you would see an athletic 658 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:59,080 Speaker 5: player like this that has clearly he's on the way 659 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 5: to the Hall of Fame to get into a slump 660 00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:06,280 Speaker 5: in the biggest time of the season like Mookie Betts has. 661 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:09,959 Speaker 8: Well, We've seen all sorts of slumps in the postseason. 662 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 8: The beauty of baseball is the best players aren't always 663 00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 8: the best. Remember, Barry Bonds wasn't great at the beginning. 664 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 8: Neither was Clayton Kershaw or Randy Johnson. They all struggled 665 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:23,040 Speaker 8: in the postseason. Then of course they all figured it out, 666 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:26,720 Speaker 8: and I think Mookie will. But this slump is severe. 667 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:30,320 Speaker 8: He's three for his last twenty three. He's hitting the 668 00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 8: ball up in the air, consistently, weak pop up, shallow 669 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 8: fly balls. It's just doesn't look like him. And you 670 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:39,920 Speaker 8: guys know him a little bit. He beats himself up 671 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 8: after every out that he makes. He is for a 672 00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 8: great player who's going to the Hall of Fame. He 673 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 8: you know, he is really hard on himself and he's 674 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 8: a little bit insecure, which I find hard to believe. Now, 675 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 8: a couple of hits will get him out of this, 676 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 8: but he is really in trouble right now. It can 677 00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,760 Speaker 8: be fixed in one game, but I'm not sure they're 678 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 8: gonna do much more if Mookie doesn't start to hit, 679 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 8: because fellas this whole offense. The last twenty nine innings, 680 00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 8: the Dodgers have scored four runs. They're hitting one sixty 681 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 8: five with four homers and twenty nine strikeouts in the 682 00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 8: last In the last twenty nine innings. It's just terrible 683 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 8: how they're swinging the bat right now and they're up 684 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 8: against another really good pitcher tonight. 685 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, in the most inopportune times, And I find that 686 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 3: the toughest part to be a World Series champion. You 687 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,280 Speaker 3: got you gotta most of them's got a click on 688 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,960 Speaker 3: all cylinders, but you got your guy going. They got 689 00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:36,040 Speaker 3: their guy going in Yamamoto. Man, this guy's been absolutely incredible. 690 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:39,800 Speaker 3: I mean, back to back nine inning performances, complete games. 691 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 4: Can you see this guy going in another nine today? 692 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 8: I can because we've seen their bullpen, Todd, and they've 693 00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:50,480 Speaker 8: they've lost faith in the bullpen other than Sasaki. So 694 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 8: he threw one hundred and eleven and one hundred and 695 00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,680 Speaker 8: five pitches the last two times out. I think he's 696 00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 8: gonna throw if he doesn't get hurt early, he's gonna 697 00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 8: he's gonna throw a third complete game tonight. The last 698 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:03,920 Speaker 8: guy to do that in the same postseason was Kurt 699 00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:07,360 Speaker 8: Chilling in two thousand and one. The last pitcher to 700 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:11,880 Speaker 8: win two consecutive postseason World Series games and pitch a 701 00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:16,160 Speaker 8: complete game was orl Herscheizer in nineteen eighty eight. This 702 00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 8: guy is different. He throws a javelin before games. He 703 00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 8: stretches in a way where it hurts to even watch him. 704 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 8: He has elite command, he misses bats, and I'm told 705 00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:31,760 Speaker 8: his only fault is that he's constantly chasing. I'm told 706 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:36,319 Speaker 8: the perfect pitch, Like everything has to be perfect for 707 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 8: this guy, which is why he gets behind in the 708 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 8: count one and oh once in a while because he's 709 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:43,799 Speaker 8: trying to make that perfect pitch on oh. Once he 710 00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:46,520 Speaker 8: gets through that, I'm not sure there's anybody that can 711 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:51,040 Speaker 8: handle this guy. At least they have it in this postseason, Tam, you. 712 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 5: Love the game baseball, You love good stories. Clayton Kershaw, 713 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:57,800 Speaker 5: do you want to see him get in another game, 714 00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:01,600 Speaker 5: risking the fact that you know his last outing was 715 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:05,200 Speaker 5: awesome getting out of bases loaded, Jam, Do you, as 716 00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 5: a baseball fan, want to risk it for the biscuit 717 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 5: that Clayton Kershall getting in a game could give a 718 00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:16,640 Speaker 5: little bad taste in your mouth? Or do you see 719 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 5: the Dodgers needing Clayton Kershaw to be able to win 720 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 5: this World Series. 721 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 8: I think they're gonna need him. I hope he pitches. 722 00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:28,000 Speaker 8: I will I'll deal with the risk of him going out, 723 00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:30,759 Speaker 8: not on top, because he's already on top. He's the 724 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 8: first ballot Hall of Famer. He's the best pitcher of 725 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 8: this generation. He had a tremendous season. He got an 726 00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:39,600 Speaker 8: enormous out in Game three of this series. So and 727 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:43,040 Speaker 8: I think there isn't one second that he would ever think, Boy, 728 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 8: what happens if I pitch one more time and it 729 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:48,360 Speaker 8: doesn't work out? I don't think that would ever cross 730 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:51,279 Speaker 8: his mind. So therefore it's not going to cross my mind. 731 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 8: We need to see him pitch one more time in 732 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:57,200 Speaker 8: a high leverage situation in this World Series. To me, 733 00:35:57,800 --> 00:35:59,960 Speaker 8: one way or another, that would close out his career 734 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:03,080 Speaker 8: in a really good way. To see him one more time. 735 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,799 Speaker 4: Not only do you love baseball, but you love umpires too. 736 00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:09,720 Speaker 3: You know were you and I when we work together, 737 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:11,960 Speaker 3: we like to see the game within the game. We 738 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:15,319 Speaker 3: talk about umpires, strike calls. You know, we don't like 739 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:19,400 Speaker 3: this way. We like this way. First question, serious question, 740 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 3: how do you think the umpire has been doing this 741 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:21,600 Speaker 3: World three? 742 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:22,080 Speaker 4: Second one? 743 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:24,799 Speaker 3: Did you see John Chumpayne on a foul tip strike three? 744 00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:27,400 Speaker 3: He went up and he gave a little death. What 745 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 3: do you think about that? 746 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 5: One? 747 00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:33,640 Speaker 8: I watched the umpires really closely because of some friends. 748 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:36,759 Speaker 8: I umpired as a kid, and I've also been hanging 749 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:39,400 Speaker 8: around you Todd way too much to watch how you 750 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:42,640 Speaker 8: referee and you umpire. Yes, I saw the Tumpayn thing. 751 00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:45,399 Speaker 8: I think the umpires have done a pretty good job. 752 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 8: I'm on the other side of this, fella. 753 00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:47,680 Speaker 5: Sorry. 754 00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:50,839 Speaker 8: I think they normally do a pretty darn good job. 755 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:54,680 Speaker 8: And I maintain the average fan wouldn't last three pitches 756 00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:57,160 Speaker 8: behind home blade a major league gay before he says, 757 00:36:57,239 --> 00:37:00,120 Speaker 8: get me out of here. This is too scary, This 758 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:03,720 Speaker 8: is too dangerous. It takes some courage to go back there, Kratzy, 759 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,279 Speaker 8: you know this and call a major league game. I 760 00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:08,719 Speaker 8: think they've done a pretty darn good job so far, 761 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 8: especially behind the plate. 762 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:15,920 Speaker 3: Let me ask you this, Timmy, we talk about umpires 763 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 3: and everything else. 764 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:20,040 Speaker 4: Can I can you give me like your your strike. 765 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:22,160 Speaker 3: Three call real quick if we're if we're looking right now, 766 00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:24,080 Speaker 3: if you can just get in the screen there. 767 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:29,160 Speaker 8: Yeah, Well, strike one is like this, strike one, strike two, 768 00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,719 Speaker 8: and then strike three is I pull the what's it called? 769 00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:34,960 Speaker 8: I pulled the chain. I go like this, Ah, that's 770 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,319 Speaker 8: strike three right there. That's what I used to do. 771 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 8: It didn't go over too well. When I'm striking out 772 00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:43,160 Speaker 8: a nine year old like that in Little league, you know, 773 00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 8: fifty years ago. But that's what I used to do. 774 00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:49,160 Speaker 8: Kind of a silent strike one, silent strike two, but 775 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:54,479 Speaker 8: then an emphatic ah strike three with the love that. 776 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:56,799 Speaker 5: So you start the chainsaw and then the kid and 777 00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:59,760 Speaker 5: then the kid goes like this, that wasn't a strike. 778 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:03,960 Speaker 8: Right, Well, he didn't call me mister Kirkchen and he 779 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,080 Speaker 8: started to cry when I struck him out, So I 780 00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 8: have to be careful the next time I call a 781 00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:11,600 Speaker 8: game like that. And Kratzy you've seen You've seen Todd 782 00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:14,200 Speaker 8: do all of his NBA referee stuff, right, you've seen 783 00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:16,799 Speaker 8: all of that. Seriously, is that the funniest thing you've 784 00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:18,359 Speaker 8: ever seen in your life? 785 00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 5: It's the second best, It's the second best in baseball. 786 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 5: Stephen vote have the best, right, but he's just more 787 00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:28,400 Speaker 5: He's just energetic about it. But Todd is like he 788 00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:34,200 Speaker 5: is spot on, you're here here. 789 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,920 Speaker 8: It's here. The difference between a block and a charge 790 00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 8: for him, and then he has to like run the 791 00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:48,520 Speaker 8: court to show that that's it's here. It's so bad. Wait, 792 00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:51,120 Speaker 8: let me just throw in the blanks. So Tommy Edmund 793 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:55,360 Speaker 8: told me he batted right handed against Corbyn Burns, Jeremiah Strada, 794 00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:58,400 Speaker 8: who you brought up, Tommy Kinley in the World Series 795 00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:01,560 Speaker 8: last year and now tray you Savage. So he told 796 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:04,239 Speaker 8: me He's had at least thirty right on right at 797 00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:07,520 Speaker 8: bats and it works for him, even though it hasn't 798 00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:09,840 Speaker 8: worked for him against you Savage in this postseason. But 799 00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:13,680 Speaker 8: I found it really interesting with Birds's cutter and the 800 00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 8: way Estrada throws and Cainley's change up. He's thinking this 801 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:20,120 Speaker 8: way through this but right on right, I'm with you guys. 802 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:22,840 Speaker 8: It looks like a disadvantage to me, but it feels 803 00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:23,359 Speaker 8: right to. 804 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:27,799 Speaker 5: Him, especially he faces right handed BP pitchers all the 805 00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:30,920 Speaker 5: time right, so people are like, ah, whatever, whatever. My 806 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:35,040 Speaker 5: last question for you, Tim is this game globally? Could 807 00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:38,640 Speaker 5: it have grown any more in this series? The fact 808 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:42,160 Speaker 5: that Japan ten percent of the Japanese market is watching 809 00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 5: these games so far based on the ratings, more than 810 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:49,400 Speaker 5: I think it's like seventeen percent of the Canadian fans 811 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:54,400 Speaker 5: or the Canadian TV market, and then obviously Fox's telecast 812 00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:57,440 Speaker 5: is higher than it ever has been. So could the 813 00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,680 Speaker 5: game have grown more globally based on the fact that 814 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:04,400 Speaker 5: they're pl playing Shoheo Tani's Dodgers and Canada's Blue Jays 815 00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 5: in this epic. I mean it's been six games so far. 816 00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 5: We could go to game seven. Yeah. 817 00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:13,160 Speaker 8: I think this has been great for baseball. This has 818 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:17,000 Speaker 8: been a global phenomenon. It's been great. And when Vlatty 819 00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:20,520 Speaker 8: from the Dominican hit a home run off of Otani, 820 00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:23,560 Speaker 8: I mean, that's exactly what we're looking for.

In the weeds we go, 875 00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 2: there's a lot of chatter about what's going to happen 876 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:21,200 Speaker 2: the next one or two days. I want to start 877 00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:24,520 Speaker 2: here because I know KP was able to give us 878 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:25,120 Speaker 2: his thoughts. 879 00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:27,240 Speaker 1: But Kratz, you go next. 880 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:30,680 Speaker 2: As we talk about game six, what do you think 881 00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:33,840 Speaker 2: the Dodgers need to do to keep this thing alive? 882 00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:36,080 Speaker 1: Like, I want to get your deep dive thoughts. 883 00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:38,600 Speaker 2: If you're the Dodgers, how do you suddenly snap out 884 00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:41,359 Speaker 2: of a hitting funk, and how do you beat Kevin 885 00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:44,000 Speaker 2: Gossman to get yourself to a game seven. You can 886 00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:47,359 Speaker 2: also include what you would do from a bullpen perspective 887 00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:53,400 Speaker 2: if there's an emergency and Yamamoto doesn't go CG because 888 00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:57,439 Speaker 2: the way I know the game, it's tough to rack 889 00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:01,520 Speaker 2: up three straight nine inning performance. So if that's not 890 00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:04,680 Speaker 2: the case, this is your whole season. This is the 891 00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:07,359 Speaker 2: biggest moment for your dynasty. Can you be the team 892 00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:09,000 Speaker 2: that can rack back to backs? But you got to 893 00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:11,399 Speaker 2: get through game six? So lay that all out for me. 894 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:15,800 Speaker 5: First, easy, I'll hit the pitching first. Yamamoto's gonna have 895 00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:19,279 Speaker 5: a terrible game and he's gonna go six innings and 896 00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:22,359 Speaker 5: Roki Sosaki's gonna throw two show Hey, he's gonna close 897 00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:26,799 Speaker 5: it out Like that's that's what happens. If Yamamoto just 898 00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:31,680 Speaker 5: isn't regular Yamamoto, like regular Yamamoto might go another complete game. 899 00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:35,880 Speaker 5: But to me, I don't see that door opening to 900 00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:44,279 Speaker 5: the bullpen until Max eighth inning, Max Yoshinobo Yamamoto has 901 00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:47,040 Speaker 5: had fifteen I said it earlier in the show fifteen 902 00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:52,760 Speaker 5: to three ball pitches all postseason pitches, not counts pitches. 903 00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:57,600 Speaker 5: Four of them were to Dalton Varshow when he got 904 00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 5: three to zero and then he battled back, I'm sorry, 905 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:03,600 Speaker 5: three of them. Three of them, so fifteen total, Like 906 00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:06,319 Speaker 5: that is showing you that he is attacking the zone. 907 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:08,200 Speaker 5: And when you're attacking the zone and you've thrown one 908 00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:12,359 Speaker 5: hundred and thirty eight pitches in a game six in 909 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:16,640 Speaker 5: the in the Japanese series, in the KBO I mean 910 00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:19,839 Speaker 5: not KBO series, in the Japanese series a few years ago, 911 00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:23,399 Speaker 5: like you're ready for these big moments. He's going to throw. 912 00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:26,439 Speaker 5: We might see one hundred and twenty five pitches. Does 913 00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:28,319 Speaker 5: that take him all day to the ninth? I don't know, 914 00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:31,319 Speaker 5: But then it's gonna be rokie. Then it's gonna be show. 915 00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:34,880 Speaker 5: Hey whatever Yamamoto isna get. So the pitching was easy hitting. 916 00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:37,640 Speaker 5: I'll tell you what you do. You get a day off. 917 00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:41,600 Speaker 5: After Game five, the boys come to the yard, you 918 00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:44,799 Speaker 5: swing a little bit, You feel like, okay, yeah, you 919 00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:46,600 Speaker 5: know what, this place is gonna be rocking. We hear 920 00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:49,480 Speaker 5: it quiet right now. We are a good team. They 921 00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:52,560 Speaker 5: don't need a meeting about why they're not doing well, 922 00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:54,480 Speaker 5: what their launch angles are all that stuff. They're not 923 00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:56,279 Speaker 5: going to have a meeting. They're all gonna go get 924 00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:59,400 Speaker 5: haircuts because when you have a haircut, you feel so 925 00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:02,440 Speaker 5: much better. And if you look good, you feel good, 926 00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:05,520 Speaker 5: you play good. It's just a matter of time for 927 00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:08,800 Speaker 5: this lineup to turn around. They don't need to shuffle everything. 928 00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:11,399 Speaker 5: Mookie doesn't need to hit fifth. You know, I would 929 00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:13,560 Speaker 5: love to see show Hey maybe hit second, but I 930 00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:15,640 Speaker 5: get it. It might be a one swing game. So 931 00:46:15,719 --> 00:46:17,600 Speaker 5: you want show Hay to get up as many times 932 00:46:17,640 --> 00:46:21,040 Speaker 5: as possible, and you go out there and you lay 933 00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:21,920 Speaker 5: it all on the line. 934 00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:24,960 Speaker 3: I like you thinking that. I didn't think of it 935 00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:27,960 Speaker 3: like that, but now thinking of him, maybe you know 936 00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:31,920 Speaker 3: you're spot on. Don't change too much. But maybe putting 937 00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:33,920 Speaker 3: Mooki in the leadoff hole, get ready for a first 938 00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:36,000 Speaker 3: pitch fastball and just try and swing as hard as 939 00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:37,840 Speaker 3: you can and see how far you can hit. It 940 00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:40,880 Speaker 3: wouldn't be the worst possibility. He's hit there before. He 941 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:44,319 Speaker 3: knows how to play that position. He knows and he'll 942 00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:46,680 Speaker 3: be ready for you know, if it's not a fastball, 943 00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:47,880 Speaker 3: then he can make the adjustment. 944 00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:49,439 Speaker 4: But at the end of the day, I don't think 945 00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:51,240 Speaker 4: that would be that big of a move. 946 00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:54,080 Speaker 3: Because next thing, you know, if he did get hot, 947 00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:55,680 Speaker 3: all of a sudden, you got a guy on with 948 00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:59,839 Speaker 3: show hay out. But you think about long running those situations. 949 00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:01,960 Speaker 3: He gets on hits a double, then they're gonna walk 950 00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:03,799 Speaker 3: show Hey no matter what. But it gets you back 951 00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:06,879 Speaker 3: to the top of the lineup. If I'm this Blue 952 00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:11,000 Speaker 3: Jay team, honestly, you haven't hit Yamamoto at all, So 953 00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:14,399 Speaker 3: what's the approach? Cratzy. It's hard to do. In your mind, 954 00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:16,160 Speaker 3: you're telling yourself you can do it. The only thing 955 00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:18,480 Speaker 3: I could think of is sitting on a pitch that 956 00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:22,000 Speaker 3: you know you can hit. He's got five pitches, maybe 957 00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:24,719 Speaker 3: even more. You know you're not gonna sit on that 958 00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:27,000 Speaker 3: splitter because it's really nasty and he throws a lot 959 00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:27,239 Speaker 3: of them. 960 00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:27,760 Speaker 4: For balls. 961 00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:31,200 Speaker 3: You got to sit on that breaking pitch or the 962 00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:33,480 Speaker 3: fastball the hole it bat until you get the two 963 00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:36,439 Speaker 3: strikes and you can't miss it, and you gotta look 964 00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:38,920 Speaker 3: in your certain area. And for me, if I was 965 00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:41,280 Speaker 3: hit and I'm looking for a fastball out over the plate, 966 00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:43,560 Speaker 3: if I didn't get it, I have to trust myself 967 00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:46,040 Speaker 3: and tell myself, you know what I gave up two strikes. 968 00:47:46,239 --> 00:47:48,200 Speaker 3: But I didn't give up my approach. And that's the 969 00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:50,640 Speaker 3: way you got to live because ultimately, guess what, you 970 00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:52,479 Speaker 3: can't hit him anyway. So you want to look silly 971 00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:54,920 Speaker 3: swinging a couple of pitches foul, couple off like, oh, man, 972 00:47:54,920 --> 00:47:57,200 Speaker 3: I should have hit that. No, you want to get 973 00:47:57,200 --> 00:47:59,799 Speaker 3: the one pitch you're looking for, Stay on it and 974 00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:02,040 Speaker 3: hopefully you can drive that ball out of the park 975 00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:05,720 Speaker 3: or get on base somewhere or another. It's Dodger team's 976 00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:07,000 Speaker 3: got to figure out a way to hit. They got 977 00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:08,480 Speaker 3: to figure out a way to hit, win runners in 978 00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:11,360 Speaker 3: scoring position. Kirchin said it best if four runs in 979 00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:13,920 Speaker 3: twenty nine innings, that's not gonna cut it. Is it 980 00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:14,879 Speaker 3: too little too late? 981 00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:15,600 Speaker 5: Man? 982 00:48:16,040 --> 00:48:17,719 Speaker 4: A lot of people in America think it is. So 983 00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:18,680 Speaker 4: we'll see what happens. 984 00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:21,960 Speaker 5: All right. Here's what I'm gonna comment on what you 985 00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:25,440 Speaker 5: said about facing Yamamoto as a Blue Jays lineup. What 986 00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:28,560 Speaker 5: do the blue Jays do well? They ambush you, and 987 00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:31,160 Speaker 5: I'm not saying ambush in a negative way. They come 988 00:48:31,200 --> 00:48:33,239 Speaker 5: out and they get after it. If you remember back 989 00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:35,360 Speaker 5: to the ball that Vladdie hit, I think it was 990 00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:38,800 Speaker 5: a third inning. The Oday I'm not sure he was 991 00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:42,600 Speaker 5: on first base, but he had an absolute missile off 992 00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:45,600 Speaker 5: the left field wall for a single, and then Yamamoto 993 00:48:45,719 --> 00:48:49,400 Speaker 5: cruised after that. But you get to the fastball, and 994 00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:52,920 Speaker 5: I'm looking at it against right handers overall, he throws 995 00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:55,640 Speaker 5: fifty percent fastballs. Now, is one going to be a 996 00:48:55,680 --> 00:48:58,680 Speaker 5: four seemer? Is one maybe gonna cut a little bit 997 00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:02,400 Speaker 5: naturally and show up as someone gonna sink? Absolutely, you 998 00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:05,600 Speaker 5: can't try to divide those into three pitches. You know. 999 00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:08,600 Speaker 5: To me, if you see the split, you don't swing 1000 00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:12,400 Speaker 5: at it. That's that's your what Todd said, you just 1001 00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:14,640 Speaker 5: sit on that heater, and you sit on that heater. 1002 00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:16,920 Speaker 5: I get it. Last time he only threw I forget 1003 00:49:16,920 --> 00:49:21,080 Speaker 5: what the percentage was of fastballs. You unashamedly sit on 1004 00:49:21,120 --> 00:49:23,480 Speaker 5: the sit on the heater. You're gonna get three at 1005 00:49:23,520 --> 00:49:26,480 Speaker 5: bats against him. This is a luxury that very few 1006 00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:29,200 Speaker 5: big league hitters get, is to get three at bats. 1007 00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:31,440 Speaker 5: Maybe even the top three guys in the lineup, we'll 1008 00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:34,920 Speaker 5: get four at bats against them. Stick to your plan 1009 00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:37,319 Speaker 5: whatever if you're not, if you're saying, you know what, No, 1010 00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:40,800 Speaker 5: he embarrassed me with that slow curveball he struck Laddie 1011 00:49:40,800 --> 00:49:42,840 Speaker 5: out with that slow curveball. He was first and third. 1012 00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:45,399 Speaker 5: I'm sitting on that because he's gonna go to it. 1013 00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:47,319 Speaker 4: I don't know, a. 1014 00:49:47,320 --> 00:49:50,880 Speaker 5: Little scary for me. Get on the fastball, and if 1015 00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:54,600 Speaker 5: you do look dumb, like Todd said, you look dumb, 1016 00:49:54,680 --> 00:49:57,600 Speaker 5: it's okay. He's gonna be there the next time you're up, 1017 00:49:57,640 --> 00:49:59,840 Speaker 5: So stick to your plan. 1018 00:50:02,600 --> 00:50:04,880 Speaker 2: Let me ask you guys a question. I want to 1019 00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:08,759 Speaker 2: go back to the Otani lineup part. Are they gonna 1020 00:50:08,760 --> 00:50:13,279 Speaker 2: move him at the leadoff spot? Not likely, but and 1021 00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:18,680 Speaker 2: I will say this, there have been some who have 1022 00:50:18,719 --> 00:50:21,040 Speaker 2: been like, oh, move them to like the cleanup spot. 1023 00:50:21,080 --> 00:50:25,560 Speaker 1: That's ridiculous. But it is there a good. 1024 00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:28,799 Speaker 2: Case that he should have been hitting second in a 1025 00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:34,239 Speaker 2: series like this based off how bad their nine spot is. 1026 00:50:34,920 --> 00:50:40,120 Speaker 2: Their nine spot is an auto out the entire postseason 1027 00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:43,080 Speaker 2: with Pajes and you know they tried call the other day. 1028 00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:47,239 Speaker 2: But that's a problem, right, So you never have the 1029 00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:49,239 Speaker 2: nine hole hitter getting on. You might have the seven 1030 00:50:49,320 --> 00:50:50,600 Speaker 2: or the eight, but you never have the nine hole 1031 00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:54,080 Speaker 2: hitter getting on. You want Otani to get as many 1032 00:50:54,120 --> 00:50:56,799 Speaker 2: A b's as possible in the game, but between one 1033 00:50:56,880 --> 00:51:00,320 Speaker 2: and two, how often does that happen where you're h 1034 00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:03,400 Speaker 2: We finished the game with the ones with the leadoff spot, 1035 00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:05,600 Speaker 2: and we didn't get to the two hitters. So my question, 1036 00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:10,080 Speaker 2: Kratz is, wouldn't you rather have somebody in front of 1037 00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:12,200 Speaker 2: him who can get on and cause a little bit 1038 00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:15,680 Speaker 2: more pressure to me? That's where the two spot changes. Remember, 1039 00:51:15,880 --> 00:51:18,839 Speaker 2: the best hitters in the sport. We're not hitting one 1040 00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:24,799 Speaker 2: or two in our sport until eight to ten years 1041 00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:27,520 Speaker 2: ago is probably when it started. You saw Springer and 1042 00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:30,600 Speaker 2: a few others pop up at the leadoff spot, right, 1043 00:51:30,760 --> 00:51:32,600 Speaker 2: But up until that point, if you did that, it 1044 00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:36,719 Speaker 2: was taboo. The best hitters were three and four. So 1045 00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:40,920 Speaker 2: that's my question, Kratz. Should Otani have been in the 1046 00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:42,960 Speaker 2: two spot? We're looking back now, but we can do that. 1047 00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:46,440 Speaker 2: We're a talk show. It's it's been such a dead 1048 00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:48,160 Speaker 2: spot as you guys can see it. It's not just 1049 00:51:48,200 --> 00:51:51,479 Speaker 2: bad results like it's bad AB's. You know, Aj talked 1050 00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:54,360 Speaker 2: about how he thinks you would do something drastic, just 1051 00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:57,280 Speaker 2: change your swing, do something because it's been auto outs 1052 00:51:57,280 --> 00:52:00,720 Speaker 2: and the best player on the planet is always stepping 1053 00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:02,480 Speaker 2: up after an out. 1054 00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:05,480 Speaker 5: All right, first, I'm gonna say yes, they should have 1055 00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:07,840 Speaker 5: made the change when that should have happened to me 1056 00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:10,640 Speaker 5: Game one of the World Series, because they knew what 1057 00:52:11,160 --> 00:52:14,160 Speaker 5: Pahes was doing and to like that he wasn't going 1058 00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:15,840 Speaker 5: to produce, but they were going to keep him in 1059 00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:18,880 Speaker 5: the lineup, and Mookie Betts wasn't producing up until that 1060 00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:21,560 Speaker 5: point either, And so you sit there and you go, 1061 00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:24,960 Speaker 5: I think, this is okay, the reason Shoho Tani is 1062 00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:28,799 Speaker 5: hitting leadoff, and this is gonna like nobody's even gonna 1063 00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:31,359 Speaker 5: hear half the things I say, because they're like, no way, 1064 00:52:31,640 --> 00:52:33,640 Speaker 5: your best hitters should hit third or fourth. You know, 1065 00:52:33,680 --> 00:52:36,080 Speaker 5: it's like, okay, I'm trying to talk to people about 1066 00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:40,560 Speaker 5: why the Dodgers have him hitting leadoff. The leadoff hitter 1067 00:52:40,680 --> 00:52:44,120 Speaker 5: throughout an entire course of a season, based on six 1068 00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:47,520 Speaker 5: hundred at bats basically is gonna get thirteen point eight 1069 00:52:47,719 --> 00:52:52,000 Speaker 5: three more at bats in an entire season. So they 1070 00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:55,400 Speaker 5: want Shoho Tani to get fourteen more at bats in 1071 00:52:55,440 --> 00:52:57,640 Speaker 5: the history of baseball, this is how it works out 1072 00:52:57,640 --> 00:53:00,920 Speaker 5: for winning teams, for losing teams. Everything. They want him 1073 00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:02,839 Speaker 5: to get fourteen more at bats. So maybe you could 1074 00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:06,200 Speaker 5: hit pop two more home runs, which could push them 1075 00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:09,440 Speaker 5: to you know, make a playoff bit or whatever it is. 1076 00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:15,960 Speaker 5: Between the first hitter and the third hitter, it's twenty 1077 00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:19,040 Speaker 5: eight at bats. So now that means a second hitter 1078 00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:22,640 Speaker 5: and the third hitter, it's fifteen at bats, essentially around 1079 00:53:22,719 --> 00:53:25,960 Speaker 5: the same for each spot in the lineup. But this 1080 00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:30,080 Speaker 5: is why I think the Dodgers weren't winning World Series 1081 00:53:30,200 --> 00:53:33,000 Speaker 5: the other times they were there. They were so reliant 1082 00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:36,359 Speaker 5: on this certain number that, you know what, I think 1083 00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:38,879 Speaker 5: we're gonna pull this guy after six innings. I think 1084 00:53:38,920 --> 00:53:44,200 Speaker 5: we're going to pinch hit for Max Munsey here, even 1085 00:53:44,200 --> 00:53:46,640 Speaker 5: though Max Munsey came on the show and said, hey, 1086 00:53:46,680 --> 00:53:50,120 Speaker 5: you know what we're gonna do. We're gonna you know bat, 1087 00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:53,200 Speaker 5: I'm gonna hit against more lefties. And what that does 1088 00:53:53,360 --> 00:53:55,560 Speaker 5: is it keeps me on the ball longer. It helps 1089 00:53:55,600 --> 00:54:00,359 Speaker 5: me get an opportunity to hit Righty's better know I'm 1090 00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:03,600 Speaker 5: not hitting well against lefties. Get I'm just becoming a 1091 00:54:03,640 --> 00:54:06,279 Speaker 5: better player, a better hitter. So to me, I think 1092 00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:09,359 Speaker 5: the Dodgers should have looked at this because all these 1093 00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:11,279 Speaker 5: numbers are out the window. It might be one at 1094 00:54:11,320 --> 00:54:14,520 Speaker 5: bat that he doesn't get. Now it's too late. Now 1095 00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:16,640 Speaker 5: you can't go and say, okay, we're gonna shift it. 1096 00:54:16,920 --> 00:54:18,920 Speaker 5: But I think that's why they kept it around, and 1097 00:54:18,960 --> 00:54:21,759 Speaker 5: I think it was probably the wrong decision if they 1098 00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:23,480 Speaker 5: don't come back and win this World Series. 1099 00:54:24,040 --> 00:54:26,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think if they did make the decision 1100 00:54:26,440 --> 00:54:30,680 Speaker 3: of changing Otani to second and Mochi the first base, 1101 00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:34,840 Speaker 3: you can't look back and say, well, Dave Robertson do anything. 1102 00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:36,640 Speaker 4: You can't look back and say, oh, that's why they lost. 1103 00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:39,399 Speaker 3: So that's why I think this decision would be viewed 1104 00:54:39,440 --> 00:54:42,759 Speaker 3: as okay, no matter what. And to Scott's point when 1105 00:54:42,760 --> 00:54:44,359 Speaker 3: he talked about it, I don't know how many times 1106 00:54:44,400 --> 00:54:46,880 Speaker 3: this happened, but when the nine batter led off in 1107 00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:49,040 Speaker 3: the World Series, I don't think he got on base 1108 00:54:49,160 --> 00:54:52,120 Speaker 3: one time for show heo Tani it was automatic one out, 1109 00:54:52,440 --> 00:54:54,279 Speaker 3: or when eight and nine got up, it was two 1110 00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:56,399 Speaker 3: out as he got up. And that's the last thing 1111 00:54:56,440 --> 00:54:58,960 Speaker 3: you want moving forward. Now, Does it happen like that 1112 00:54:59,040 --> 00:55:01,920 Speaker 3: all the time. No, it's been exploited in this World Series, 1113 00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:05,600 Speaker 3: So again, I would not be surprised if he did it. 1114 00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:06,280 Speaker 4: I would. 1115 00:55:06,360 --> 00:55:09,160 Speaker 3: I think honestly it's the best move for the Dodgers. 1116 00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:11,719 Speaker 3: Maybe get Mooki going again a little bit, put a 1117 00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:13,719 Speaker 3: little pressure on him. Hey man, you're leading off. Let's 1118 00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:16,160 Speaker 3: go be you know, be the straw that starts a drink, 1119 00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:18,600 Speaker 3: per se and get us going. So and we'll talk 1120 00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:21,319 Speaker 3: a little bit more about Mooki as we move forward here. 1121 00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:26,400 Speaker 2: That's actually the perfect transition. We're gonna do that next segment, 1122 00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:30,160 Speaker 2: Todd Father, that's part of the problem, all right, Mooki's 1123 00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:33,000 Speaker 2: got a problem. He's gonna visit the office and find 1124 00:55:33,040 --> 00:55:36,359 Speaker 2: out what's going on. Also, I will answer one quick 1125 00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:40,400 Speaker 2: question for those asking if there is a Game seven, 1126 00:55:40,560 --> 00:55:42,880 Speaker 2: we will do a postgame show, not a pregame show. 1127 00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:46,120 Speaker 2: We'll set up Game seven in our Game six postgame show, 1128 00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:47,920 Speaker 2: just letting you know if you're catching this later on, 1129 00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:49,520 Speaker 2: if you're catching this now, I know there have been 1130 00:55:49,560 --> 00:56:02,680 Speaker 2: a few questions in the chat toid Father. We want 1131 00:56:02,719 --> 00:56:07,920 Speaker 2: to visit the Colorful Batman, Thodfather, we got a problem today. Okay, 1132 00:56:08,360 --> 00:56:15,000 Speaker 2: So the Dodgers' offense has fallen apart lately, and specifically 1133 00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:19,200 Speaker 2: one of their superstars can't figure it out. It's such 1134 00:56:19,239 --> 00:56:22,240 Speaker 2: a problem that they had to do some lineup tweaking 1135 00:56:22,520 --> 00:56:26,120 Speaker 2: that didn't work, although that might have been a different problem. 1136 00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:29,040 Speaker 2: By the name of Trey Savage. We're trying to figure 1137 00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:32,840 Speaker 2: out what to do in such a short period of time. 1138 00:56:33,120 --> 00:56:36,479 Speaker 2: So if Mookie Bets had time right now, he would 1139 00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:39,920 Speaker 2: have represented himself, But instead Kratz and I are representing 1140 00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:43,640 Speaker 2: Muki as we visit the office and ask you, Todd father, 1141 00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:47,359 Speaker 2: what he should do with one or two games left 1142 00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:50,799 Speaker 2: to go, And at some point we'll mix in some 1143 00:56:51,040 --> 00:56:55,160 Speaker 2: swing results from Mike Petriello and the stack Cast crew. 1144 00:56:57,200 --> 00:57:02,359 Speaker 3: It might be a little too like talking about what 1145 00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:05,320 Speaker 3: we need to do preparation and preparation's been there for 1146 00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:07,640 Speaker 3: Moky Bets. He's worked his butt off, and he said 1147 00:57:07,640 --> 00:57:09,640 Speaker 3: it's not a lack of effort. You know what, effort 1148 00:57:09,640 --> 00:57:13,360 Speaker 3: can only take you so far. I mean, listen, Gratzy 1149 00:57:13,480 --> 00:57:15,879 Speaker 3: understands he worked the hardest guy I've ever seen work 1150 00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:19,280 Speaker 3: in his life. Sometimes it didn't pay off. Guess what. 1151 00:57:19,840 --> 00:57:22,320 Speaker 3: He's in a slump. He can't find his way out 1152 00:57:22,320 --> 00:57:25,480 Speaker 3: of it. His hands are dropping, He's seeing pitches that 1153 00:57:25,520 --> 00:57:28,440 Speaker 3: he should be driving. You see the frustration. I'm frustrated 1154 00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:30,360 Speaker 3: every day when I wake up and the weather's like 1155 00:57:30,400 --> 00:57:33,439 Speaker 3: this windy. I don't like it. I don't like the rain. 1156 00:57:33,520 --> 00:57:35,120 Speaker 3: I don't like any of that stuff. But guess what 1157 00:57:35,200 --> 00:57:39,200 Speaker 3: we move on for Mooki bets, get your hands up. 1158 00:57:39,280 --> 00:57:43,440 Speaker 3: How think about swinging down on the ball. That uppercut 1159 00:57:43,480 --> 00:57:46,080 Speaker 3: swings not working, pop flies aren't working, and there's no 1160 00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:48,320 Speaker 3: power behind it, and I think his hands are getting 1161 00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:51,160 Speaker 3: away from his body. You got two games to prove 1162 00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:54,520 Speaker 3: me wrong. Forget about the numbers. Throw the numbers out 1163 00:57:54,560 --> 00:57:59,720 Speaker 3: the window, Cratsy Scotti, get the hands up. Think about 1164 00:57:59,840 --> 00:58:02,720 Speaker 3: catching that ball out in front and hitting the ball 1165 00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:04,840 Speaker 3: down and cutting the ball in half and watch the 1166 00:58:04,880 --> 00:58:08,040 Speaker 3: backspin homers go out. I expect a big day from 1167 00:58:08,040 --> 00:58:10,720 Speaker 3: you today, Mochi. It's going to go home, Bud. 1168 00:58:11,080 --> 00:58:11,400 Speaker 4: That's all. 1169 00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:14,240 Speaker 5: This is the best. This is the best. The problem 1170 00:58:14,240 --> 00:58:17,960 Speaker 5: that I've ever seen, this was, I mean, your pace, everything, 1171 00:58:18,600 --> 00:58:22,000 Speaker 5: the mask like I'm a little afraid of you. I'm 1172 00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:26,000 Speaker 5: glad I'm not in Jersey today, Todd. But everybody needs 1173 00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:28,680 Speaker 5: to listen to what Todd said. Todd didn't bring up 1174 00:58:28,680 --> 00:58:30,640 Speaker 5: any of the numbers, and we're gonna get the Petriello's 1175 00:58:31,240 --> 00:58:33,560 Speaker 5: you know, if we can even bring up Petrillo's graph 1176 00:58:33,600 --> 00:58:36,920 Speaker 5: of his swing, I'm not even sure what the exact 1177 00:58:37,160 --> 00:58:40,960 Speaker 5: wording is, but his swing angle. So we're talking about 1178 00:58:41,040 --> 00:58:46,320 Speaker 5: degree and the fact that he's his attack angle is 1179 00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:50,360 Speaker 5: thirteen percent. I'll be honest, I do not know the numbers. 1180 00:58:50,800 --> 00:58:54,840 Speaker 5: What I do know is what Todd said. And people 1181 00:58:54,840 --> 00:58:56,840 Speaker 5: are gonna say, well, how are you gonna hit the 1182 00:58:56,880 --> 00:59:00,640 Speaker 5: ball up? If you don't swing up. You don't hit 1183 00:59:00,640 --> 00:59:03,080 Speaker 5: the ball up because you swing up. You hit the 1184 00:59:03,120 --> 00:59:08,320 Speaker 5: ball up because you make contact where Todd out in front, 1185 00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:13,960 Speaker 5: out in front, you can. Todd's telling him to swing down. Yes, 1186 00:59:14,480 --> 00:59:17,760 Speaker 5: the thought process has to be swinging down. Nobody's going 1187 00:59:17,800 --> 00:59:21,560 Speaker 5: to swing down like this actually to the ball. What 1188 00:59:21,720 --> 00:59:25,200 Speaker 5: happens is when you swing down, when you think about 1189 00:59:25,240 --> 00:59:28,480 Speaker 5: swinging down, now, your first move with your hands is 1190 00:59:28,560 --> 00:59:31,960 Speaker 5: this direction. Right now, the first move of his hands 1191 00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:35,880 Speaker 5: is this direction. His hands are dropping. Maybe they're too 1192 00:59:36,560 --> 00:59:39,200 Speaker 5: far out, maybe they're too close. Whatever it is, it's 1193 00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:43,240 Speaker 5: causing his hands to drop, which is causing that thirteen 1194 00:59:43,360 --> 00:59:47,560 Speaker 5: degree angle and causing the pop ups. The pop ups 1195 00:59:47,600 --> 00:59:50,320 Speaker 5: are not he's not squaring these balls up. And the 1196 00:59:50,360 --> 00:59:52,560 Speaker 5: reason he's not squaring them up is because the pitch 1197 00:59:52,600 --> 00:59:56,640 Speaker 5: comes in on this path right here, and he's trying 1198 00:59:56,640 --> 01:00:02,520 Speaker 5: to swing across that angle. When you swing down, your 1199 01:00:02,560 --> 01:00:07,000 Speaker 5: swing path is now going with the same angle as 1200 01:00:07,080 --> 01:00:10,280 Speaker 5: the pitch, and when you catch it out front, your 1201 01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:13,440 Speaker 5: swing is starting to go up. So yes, you need 1202 01:00:13,480 --> 01:00:16,439 Speaker 5: to go up to hit it. But when you're late 1203 01:00:16,480 --> 01:00:20,640 Speaker 5: and popping every ball up, Mookie Bets could make a change. 1204 01:00:21,440 --> 01:00:23,440 Speaker 5: If you're asking one of the other guys deeper in 1205 01:00:23,480 --> 01:00:27,680 Speaker 5: this lineup to make a change, probably not Mookie Bets. 1206 01:00:28,400 --> 01:00:30,360 Speaker 5: If he never knew anything about baseball, he could pick 1207 01:00:30,440 --> 01:00:31,720 Speaker 5: up a bat and be like, you want me to 1208 01:00:31,720 --> 01:00:34,080 Speaker 5: do what now? Oh, I'll do this. That's what's so 1209 01:00:34,160 --> 01:00:37,840 Speaker 5: amazing about the fact that he's in this slump right now, 1210 01:00:38,160 --> 01:00:42,040 Speaker 5: and it's not pressure. He's not folding under the pressure 1211 01:00:42,120 --> 01:00:45,280 Speaker 5: or anything like this. It's just a tiny mechanical switch 1212 01:00:45,680 --> 01:00:48,040 Speaker 5: that might feel like in his head he needs to 1213 01:00:48,080 --> 01:00:51,560 Speaker 5: make a drastic change to get to where he needs 1214 01:00:51,600 --> 01:00:57,960 Speaker 5: to be. But the thirteen percent, the thirteen degrees of 1215 01:00:58,040 --> 01:01:03,240 Speaker 5: attack angle swing is telling me in numbers exactly what 1216 01:01:03,280 --> 01:01:04,080 Speaker 5: my eyes have seen. 1217 01:01:06,160 --> 01:01:10,320 Speaker 2: One fan question here to jump in, Nico said, feel 1218 01:01:10,360 --> 01:01:13,680 Speaker 2: like Bets adjusted his swing to try to hit the splitter, 1219 01:01:13,720 --> 01:01:15,080 Speaker 2: and that obviously didn't work. 1220 01:01:15,120 --> 01:01:16,400 Speaker 1: Now he's dipping his shoulder. 1221 01:01:18,080 --> 01:01:21,400 Speaker 5: Okay, I yeah, go ahead, go ahead. Go ahead. 1222 01:01:21,560 --> 01:01:24,439 Speaker 3: No, I honestly think when you're in between, I don't 1223 01:01:24,440 --> 01:01:26,480 Speaker 3: think he's adjusted his swing to the splitter. I just 1224 01:01:26,480 --> 01:01:27,760 Speaker 3: think he's a little in between. 1225 01:01:28,080 --> 01:01:28,600 Speaker 4: And when you. 1226 01:01:28,560 --> 01:01:31,920 Speaker 3: Struggle a little bit, all of a sudden, every pitch 1227 01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:34,280 Speaker 3: to you looks like either one it's a strike or 1228 01:01:34,400 --> 01:01:36,280 Speaker 3: the next pitch you're gonna get five hits out of 1229 01:01:36,280 --> 01:01:38,360 Speaker 3: one swing. And that's just not gonna happen. That's just 1230 01:01:39,000 --> 01:01:42,840 Speaker 3: being human and understanding that I'm struggling. I want to 1231 01:01:42,880 --> 01:01:45,960 Speaker 3: try so hard to help my team. But if he's 1232 01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:47,960 Speaker 3: looking for a splitter, then then he's not gonna be 1233 01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:50,800 Speaker 3: able to hit too often anymore. That's not a pitch 1234 01:01:50,840 --> 01:01:53,400 Speaker 3: you're not you're necessarily gonna look for because it's so 1235 01:01:53,560 --> 01:01:55,640 Speaker 3: hard to throw a strike that that pitch. 1236 01:01:55,720 --> 01:01:59,280 Speaker 4: That pitch is an outpitch for most pictures, all. 1237 01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:02,840 Speaker 5: Right, And and everything that everybody said here is all true, 1238 01:02:02,880 --> 01:02:05,840 Speaker 5: Like that's the beauty of hitting is I'm not sure 1239 01:02:05,880 --> 01:02:08,880 Speaker 5: who said this in the chat, but he said, and 1240 01:02:08,920 --> 01:02:11,440 Speaker 5: he's dipping his shoulder. He's not trying to dip his 1241 01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:15,240 Speaker 5: shoulder to try to hit a splitter. Is he dipping 1242 01:02:15,240 --> 01:02:18,920 Speaker 5: his shoulder? Absolutely? But to me, you have to when 1243 01:02:18,920 --> 01:02:21,240 Speaker 5: you go to a guy like Mookie Betts, you're not 1244 01:02:21,280 --> 01:02:24,000 Speaker 5: going to a nine year old who's like, hey, you 1245 01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:26,760 Speaker 5: know what, get your elbow up, you know, and do this. 1246 01:02:26,960 --> 01:02:29,480 Speaker 5: You're going to Mookie Bets, who's an athlete. So it's 1247 01:02:29,600 --> 01:02:33,280 Speaker 5: more in the lines of what Todd said of if 1248 01:02:33,320 --> 01:02:36,520 Speaker 5: you're in between, you have no shot of hitting anything. 1249 01:02:36,800 --> 01:02:40,760 Speaker 5: So you have to be fully committed and you're if 1250 01:02:40,800 --> 01:02:43,800 Speaker 5: you are sitting on a splitter, you're cooked. You're not 1251 01:02:43,840 --> 01:02:47,320 Speaker 5: catching up to the fastball. So the approach has to 1252 01:02:47,360 --> 01:02:49,720 Speaker 5: be if this is the case, because we're only conjecture, 1253 01:02:49,920 --> 01:02:52,840 Speaker 5: we're only saying what we see, and it's super easy 1254 01:02:52,880 --> 01:02:55,560 Speaker 5: to sit on a couch and evaluate what we're seeing. 1255 01:02:56,080 --> 01:02:58,960 Speaker 5: But you have to say, I'm fully committed to the 1256 01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:02,120 Speaker 5: fastball because because now I'm on time for the fastball 1257 01:03:02,520 --> 01:03:05,480 Speaker 5: and know that anything down is going to be a splitter. 1258 01:03:05,520 --> 01:03:09,520 Speaker 5: So I'm not swinging at Mookie Betts looks like he's like, 1259 01:03:09,840 --> 01:03:12,680 Speaker 5: I am so freaking good at everything that I do 1260 01:03:13,240 --> 01:03:17,480 Speaker 5: that I can cover the fastball the splitter. And here 1261 01:03:17,520 --> 01:03:19,919 Speaker 5: I go, oh, nope, that one wasn't it. Nope, Nope, 1262 01:03:19,960 --> 01:03:23,120 Speaker 5: that one wasn't it. And Big League Pictures especially World Series. 1263 01:03:23,160 --> 01:03:27,480 Speaker 5: Big league pitchers are too good to be in between pitches. 1264 01:03:31,040 --> 01:03:32,040 Speaker 1: It was good exercise. 1265 01:03:32,360 --> 01:03:32,840 Speaker 5: I like that. 1266 01:03:33,600 --> 01:03:35,200 Speaker 1: I think problem solved now. 1267 01:03:35,400 --> 01:03:37,320 Speaker 9: I don't know if the problem will actually be solved 1268 01:03:37,320 --> 01:03:40,360 Speaker 9: in the game. But what I do mean, Todd father, 1269 01:03:40,560 --> 01:03:42,320 Speaker 9: is we learned a lot. 1270 01:03:43,800 --> 01:03:44,080 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1271 01:03:44,720 --> 01:03:50,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, and if you're not learning, you're losing. That's my model, Todd. 1272 01:03:50,920 --> 01:03:53,000 Speaker 5: I will take care of whatever problem you need. I 1273 01:03:53,560 --> 01:03:56,080 Speaker 5: mean today, like when you take your mask off, like, 1274 01:03:56,120 --> 01:03:59,120 Speaker 5: I don't take you seriously. So for the rest of 1275 01:03:59,120 --> 01:04:02,440 Speaker 5: the problems, maybe we'll mix in like less rainbow colors 1276 01:04:02,440 --> 01:04:04,880 Speaker 5: on it. I need you to wear a mask because 1277 01:04:04,880 --> 01:04:08,360 Speaker 5: your face is not very your face is not very intimidating. 1278 01:04:08,400 --> 01:04:11,040 Speaker 5: But that was the best the problem that I've seen 1279 01:04:11,680 --> 01:04:12,720 Speaker 5: in our three years. 1280 01:04:13,200 --> 01:04:15,720 Speaker 3: This thing's getting itchy too. I got maybe ten more 1281 01:04:15,760 --> 01:04:18,040 Speaker 3: minutes of this and coming off, so you know, I 1282 01:04:18,120 --> 01:04:20,880 Speaker 3: keep I keep moving it. I'm like, holy cow, here 1283 01:04:20,920 --> 01:04:21,200 Speaker 3: we go. 1284 01:04:23,240 --> 01:04:23,800 Speaker 1: You're allowed. 1285 01:04:23,840 --> 01:04:26,080 Speaker 2: We got forty minutes left in show. So if you 1286 01:04:26,080 --> 01:04:28,880 Speaker 2: want to reveal yourself at the end, as Batman. 1287 01:04:28,560 --> 01:04:32,800 Speaker 3: Might, listen, listen, Scott. This might not be Todd Frazier here, 1288 01:04:32,880 --> 01:04:34,560 Speaker 3: just letting you know when to take the mask off. 1289 01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:35,560 Speaker 4: You never know. 1290 01:04:35,800 --> 01:04:50,120 Speaker 9: I'm scared. Here we go, baby, let's slap. 1291 01:04:51,000 --> 01:04:53,840 Speaker 2: There is no cratz hats today? 1292 01:04:55,720 --> 01:04:58,440 Speaker 1: Where is there? Very nice? 1293 01:05:00,480 --> 01:05:03,919 Speaker 2: Okay, so let's get to some questions here. We will 1294 01:05:03,920 --> 01:05:06,280 Speaker 2: start with Neil in the chat, he said, are the 1295 01:05:06,400 --> 01:05:08,520 Speaker 2: Dodgers too reliant. 1296 01:05:08,760 --> 01:05:11,360 Speaker 1: On the long ball? God Father? Do you think that 1297 01:05:11,400 --> 01:05:13,320 Speaker 1: their offense is to relyant on the long ball? 1298 01:05:13,880 --> 01:05:16,680 Speaker 2: We have addressed over the past week how this team 1299 01:05:16,840 --> 01:05:19,160 Speaker 2: led in a number of categories in the National League, 1300 01:05:19,200 --> 01:05:22,960 Speaker 2: like home runs and ops. They also went through a 1301 01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:28,240 Speaker 2: pretty significant slump somewhat late in the season. Do you 1302 01:05:28,320 --> 01:05:32,360 Speaker 2: think that overall their offense, from a player to player 1303 01:05:33,400 --> 01:05:34,920 Speaker 2: is too home run reliant. 1304 01:05:36,600 --> 01:05:38,680 Speaker 3: I think there's a point to it, but I think 1305 01:05:38,720 --> 01:05:42,880 Speaker 3: they're just struggling hitting. And I think what he's talking 1306 01:05:42,880 --> 01:05:45,120 Speaker 3: about home run. Maybe they're thinking about getting that big 1307 01:05:45,120 --> 01:05:48,800 Speaker 3: home run, but I think it just starts with getting 1308 01:05:48,840 --> 01:05:51,920 Speaker 3: strikes to hit and getting pitches that you like to hit. 1309 01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:54,960 Speaker 4: And for them, yeah, the home runs great, they do 1310 01:05:55,000 --> 01:05:55,360 Speaker 4: it well. 1311 01:05:55,440 --> 01:05:57,320 Speaker 3: They have a lot of them, so I would say 1312 01:05:57,400 --> 01:05:59,240 Speaker 3: yes and no. I think they do rely on it 1313 01:05:59,240 --> 01:06:01,680 Speaker 3: a little bit too much. But I also think they're 1314 01:06:01,760 --> 01:06:06,120 Speaker 3: just struggling on getting guys on base. And struggling to 1315 01:06:06,160 --> 01:06:08,840 Speaker 3: get them in. So I would say, yes, that's part 1316 01:06:08,880 --> 01:06:11,000 Speaker 3: of it. But secondly, they're not swinging that good pitches 1317 01:06:11,040 --> 01:06:13,040 Speaker 3: to get the guys in when they have that opportunity. 1318 01:06:14,160 --> 01:06:16,080 Speaker 5: No, I would say, no, they're not too reliant. I 1319 01:06:16,080 --> 01:06:19,439 Speaker 5: don't think anybody can. I don't think anybody can give 1320 01:06:19,480 --> 01:06:22,680 Speaker 5: you who the second most. Who has the second most 1321 01:06:22,680 --> 01:06:25,360 Speaker 5: home runs on the Dodgers, because when you think about 1322 01:06:25,360 --> 01:06:27,320 Speaker 5: teams that rely on the home run, you think about 1323 01:06:27,320 --> 01:06:32,480 Speaker 5: the Yankees. Jazz has plus thirty plus, Ben Rice had 1324 01:06:32,480 --> 01:06:37,760 Speaker 5: a breakout year, Judge Bellinger, Andy Payes has the second 1325 01:06:37,840 --> 01:06:40,200 Speaker 5: most number of home runs on the team. So I 1326 01:06:40,560 --> 01:06:41,920 Speaker 5: while they hit a lot of home runs, I don't 1327 01:06:41,960 --> 01:06:44,360 Speaker 5: think they're too reliant on it. They just are in 1328 01:06:44,560 --> 01:06:45,960 Speaker 5: what Todd said, all slump. 1329 01:06:48,720 --> 01:06:51,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, like you think about Mookie, you think about Freddy. 1330 01:06:51,520 --> 01:06:55,400 Speaker 2: I wouldn't call those types of players hitting profile wise 1331 01:06:55,560 --> 01:06:58,920 Speaker 2: with home run reliant. So good call there, good answer. 1332 01:07:00,280 --> 01:07:05,080 Speaker 2: I have a question World Series entertainment grade compared to 1333 01:07:05,400 --> 01:07:10,520 Speaker 2: prior World Series matchups that you've watched. Right in these 1334 01:07:10,600 --> 01:07:13,880 Speaker 2: first five games, how entertained are you? And we're going 1335 01:07:13,920 --> 01:07:19,040 Speaker 2: with letter grades if this thing continues, the letter grade's 1336 01:07:19,040 --> 01:07:21,800 Speaker 2: going to bump up automatically with a game seven. But 1337 01:07:21,920 --> 01:07:24,760 Speaker 2: Todd Father, what's your entertainment factor? Right, We've had some 1338 01:07:24,800 --> 01:07:26,640 Speaker 2: close games, we had some not so close games. We 1339 01:07:26,680 --> 01:07:28,040 Speaker 2: had one of the longest games. 1340 01:07:28,400 --> 01:07:30,919 Speaker 3: What do you think, Yeah, I mean out of the five, 1341 01:07:31,000 --> 01:07:34,840 Speaker 3: I think really good. Yeah, I would say middle of 1342 01:07:34,840 --> 01:07:36,360 Speaker 3: the pack. But we still have one more to go, 1343 01:07:36,440 --> 01:07:38,480 Speaker 3: I'd say, and that be min that's C plus B 1344 01:07:38,560 --> 01:07:42,520 Speaker 3: minus range. I think it's fantastic that you got Toronto 1345 01:07:42,640 --> 01:07:45,200 Speaker 3: in and La being the favorite, and it looks like 1346 01:07:45,200 --> 01:07:48,320 Speaker 3: Toronto's taking care of it and almost finishing them off 1347 01:07:48,360 --> 01:07:50,360 Speaker 3: in the World Series. I think that'll help bringer my 1348 01:07:50,480 --> 01:07:53,560 Speaker 3: grade up. But again, you know, there's been a couple 1349 01:07:53,600 --> 01:07:55,880 Speaker 3: of games of one run from the Dodgers that you 1350 01:07:55,920 --> 01:07:58,960 Speaker 3: know been subpar, so the Dodgers could pick it up 1351 01:07:58,960 --> 01:08:00,320 Speaker 3: a little bit the great and we go a lot 1352 01:08:00,400 --> 01:08:02,240 Speaker 3: higher too, so you know, you know the Blue Jays 1353 01:08:02,240 --> 01:08:03,040 Speaker 3: are gonna be right there. 1354 01:08:03,080 --> 01:08:04,560 Speaker 4: They've been fantastic. 1355 01:08:05,760 --> 01:08:07,920 Speaker 5: I disagree. I think it's a I think it's an 1356 01:08:07,960 --> 01:08:11,240 Speaker 5: A minus series. I do when you have an eighteen 1357 01:08:11,280 --> 01:08:13,680 Speaker 5: inning game, you have a historic length of a game. 1358 01:08:14,640 --> 01:08:16,720 Speaker 5: I think it's when you have when you have the 1359 01:08:16,800 --> 01:08:19,559 Speaker 5: narrative already written. Let's say you go to a movie 1360 01:08:19,600 --> 01:08:21,200 Speaker 5: and you're like, oh, I know how this is gonna end, 1361 01:08:21,520 --> 01:08:25,679 Speaker 5: and then they just they flip it. What, No way, 1362 01:08:26,120 --> 01:08:28,160 Speaker 5: the Blue Jays are winning free to two, We're going 1363 01:08:28,200 --> 01:08:32,479 Speaker 5: back to Toronto. No way. Yeah, obviously, Shohotani's gonna do 1364 01:08:32,560 --> 01:08:37,080 Speaker 5: his thing, Vladimir Guerrero's gonna do his thing. But when 1365 01:08:37,400 --> 01:08:41,400 Speaker 5: the script doesn't go the way everybody planned it, I 1366 01:08:41,439 --> 01:08:43,439 Speaker 5: can't not give it an A. I'm gonna give it 1367 01:08:43,439 --> 01:08:46,360 Speaker 5: an A minus right now because if it if it 1368 01:08:46,479 --> 01:08:49,720 Speaker 5: ends in a game seven, then I think I'm I'm 1369 01:08:49,800 --> 01:08:52,120 Speaker 5: solid A range, and I think I'm probably in the minority. 1370 01:08:52,560 --> 01:08:54,760 Speaker 5: I don't think it's been boring because I haven't gotten 1371 01:08:54,760 --> 01:08:58,000 Speaker 5: any sleep through these six game five games that they've played, 1372 01:08:58,240 --> 01:09:01,160 Speaker 5: and I haven't fallen asleep once, so I disagree. I 1373 01:09:01,200 --> 01:09:04,320 Speaker 5: think this has been an awesome series. 1374 01:09:07,160 --> 01:09:12,599 Speaker 1: For me. I'm I'll go B plus. 1375 01:09:14,760 --> 01:09:18,040 Speaker 2: So if we get to a game seven, you're automatically 1376 01:09:18,080 --> 01:09:20,920 Speaker 2: getting into the A grade. Depending on how Game six goes, 1377 01:09:20,960 --> 01:09:23,559 Speaker 2: that could bump it up to the A grade. I'm 1378 01:09:23,560 --> 01:09:27,240 Speaker 2: pretty close to that as range. The thing that comes 1379 01:09:27,240 --> 01:09:30,599 Speaker 2: to mind for me is yet we're not in multiple 1380 01:09:30,640 --> 01:09:34,880 Speaker 2: walkoffs or one run games, right. The eighteen Ning Marathon 1381 01:09:34,880 --> 01:09:36,800 Speaker 2: obviously was a one run game. Most of the rest 1382 01:09:36,840 --> 01:09:39,000 Speaker 2: of the final scores have been lopsided, but they've still 1383 01:09:39,000 --> 01:09:41,840 Speaker 2: been good games. For example, the last game was not 1384 01:09:42,000 --> 01:09:44,880 Speaker 2: a fun watch for Dodgers fans, but it was a 1385 01:09:44,880 --> 01:09:47,840 Speaker 2: fun watch for most of the rest of baseball fans. 1386 01:09:47,880 --> 01:09:50,400 Speaker 2: Of course, it was a fun watch for Blue Jays fans. 1387 01:09:51,200 --> 01:09:53,880 Speaker 2: We got to watch Trey A Savage dominate like that, 1388 01:09:54,640 --> 01:09:57,160 Speaker 2: and if you go further back, we got to see 1389 01:09:57,200 --> 01:10:00,559 Speaker 2: a CG which we never see in games like this anymore. 1390 01:10:00,600 --> 01:10:03,080 Speaker 2: We hadn't seen one in about a decade when Johnny 1391 01:10:03,120 --> 01:10:06,559 Speaker 2: Quato put that together. So those two games alone, despite 1392 01:10:06,600 --> 01:10:11,519 Speaker 2: not being close there right, still super entertaining in my mind. 1393 01:10:13,360 --> 01:10:16,840 Speaker 2: B plus but pretty good chance it's gonna at least 1394 01:10:16,840 --> 01:10:18,479 Speaker 2: get itself to an A minus. And if we got 1395 01:10:18,479 --> 01:10:21,280 Speaker 2: a game seven that then you're dipping into a if 1396 01:10:21,320 --> 01:10:25,800 Speaker 2: not a plus territory. Baby, we have a postgame show 1397 01:10:25,960 --> 01:10:31,080 Speaker 2: after tonight's game six. Krats will be there, maybe as grew, 1398 01:10:31,200 --> 01:10:33,400 Speaker 2: Maybe as Krats I would show up just to figure 1399 01:10:33,439 --> 01:10:38,559 Speaker 2: that part out alone, and Buck Showalter will join us 1400 01:10:39,040 --> 01:10:42,040 Speaker 2: for the manager perspective.
