So, yeah, a lot of 38 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 2: if you haven't checked that out, go check it out. 39 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 1: Seems like everybody, everybody's got a good Chase story, you know. 40 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 2: That's yeah, That's kind of why I've been anytime we 41 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 2: have one of his old teammates on, I've I've made 42 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 2: a point to ask because they've all got something like 43 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 2: over the top that you really don't feel like you 44 00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 2: hear from a lot of When. 45 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: When he said Chase would turn around and look at 46 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 1: him at right field, it actually reminded me of the 47 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 1: story that when during VP and infield practice, you know, 48 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 1: pregame workouts. When Chase thought the infield was too dry 49 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 1: and playing too hard and choppy, he would turn around 50 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: to that window where Mike book Hold of the ground 51 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 1: screw guy had his office, and he bombed the window 52 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 1: with balls until Bookholder would come out and spray the 53 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 1: field and soften it up. That reminded me of that. 54 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 3: So the beauty about Chase for me was that what 55 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 3: he presented to the world was way way different from 56 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 3: what he was, you know, in the clubhouse. And you 57 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 3: guys got a chance to see that. He and Worth 58 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 3: and some other guys, you know, Worth showing sort of 59 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:49,399 Speaker 3: having more personality with you guys, and Chase always being, 60 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 3: you know, mister stoic, mister professional. But he man, there's 61 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 3: a lot of cool Chase stories and what he was about. 62 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 3: I mean, the bottom line for Chase was it was 63 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 3: all about winning a baseball game that day, right. All 64 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 3: he cared about was figuring out a way to beat 65 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 3: somebody else's ass. 66 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 1: And Jason was always really uh, here was the first 67 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 1: one on that high five line, right, Todd, was Jason. 68 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 2: He was exactly he was uh, you know, you remind 69 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 2: me of speaking of this is a funny story that 70 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 2: I heard over the years is that Chase was always 71 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 2: get ready super early for a game, like an hour 72 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 2: before the game. He'd be dressed in full UNI and 73 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 2: Jason would just go have a good game, Chase Like Chase. 74 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 2: Jason would be like in a towel an hour before 75 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 2: the game, like not even close to being ready to go, 76 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 2: and there's Chase at his locker like, all right, you 77 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 2: gotta get checking himself up to get ready. 78 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: Gotta get ready. 79 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 2: So that was funny. Yeah, go listen to the Jason 80 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 2: Worth episode if you haven't checked it out already. I 81 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 2: promise you you will not regret it. But yeah, it's Tuesday, Tuesday. Uh, 82 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 2: not a lot has been going on, guys, for the 83 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 2: Phillies I've been I'm sure you guys have been getting 84 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 2: askedes too, right. 85 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 3: Like what are they doing? 86 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 2: Why is it taking so long? So Ruben, I want 87 00:03:58,120 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 2: to ask you because you were one of these guys 88 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 2: when when you were in Dave Nebrowski's shoes and Jim 89 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 2: and I were sitting there going are they these guys 90 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 2: going to do anything? Or like what's going on here? 91 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 2: So let me ask you what do you think is 92 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 2: going on? Right now in the Phillies front office or 93 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 2: in baseball? Do you think do you think it's teams 94 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,479 Speaker 2: sitting there going we need to see where Jan Soto's 95 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 2: going is? Is that the domino that has to fall? 96 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 2: Is that a total outlier from everything? Are teams that 97 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 2: might be interested in Alec Bohm, for just for an example, 98 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 2: sitting there going, I don't want to get involved in 99 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 2: Alec Bowm until I find out if we get Alex Bregman. 100 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 2: What's going on? Why why are things going so slow 101 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 2: right now? 102 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 3: Yeah? I think it's a sort of a domino effect. 103 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,599 Speaker 3: And I think when one when you have one player 104 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,720 Speaker 3: of this caliber, I think, first of all, the agents 105 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 3: are going to want that salary out there they go. 106 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 3: They're going to want to see that that deal get done, 107 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 3: because then it would drag everybody else. Now all of 108 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,280 Speaker 3: a sudden, like who's the next best you know, who's 109 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 3: the next best free agent? Well, the next best free 110 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 3: agent might be you know, I don't. It depends on 111 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,719 Speaker 3: you know, how you feel about it. It could be Anthony Santandeer. 112 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 3: It could be you know, as far as you know, 113 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,159 Speaker 3: it could be task or Hernandez. It could be Alex Fragman. 114 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,280 Speaker 3: It could be you know, any number of you know, 115 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 3: players that feel like the next one in line behind him, 116 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 3: and they just want to see how far it gets dragged. 117 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 3: So you know, he's gonna set the market for the 118 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 3: free agents for this class and then there everybody else 119 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 3: is gonna ride the coattails, baby, And and I think 120 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 3: part of that is that, and part of it is 121 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 3: teams are deciding, Okay, if Soto goes to Boston, then 122 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,840 Speaker 3: I gotta I gotta, you know, I gotta go Plan 123 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,359 Speaker 3: BE or Plan C. If he you know, you know, 124 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 3: then New York's got to go. You know, the two 125 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 3: New York teams have to figure out, Okay, now, what 126 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,719 Speaker 3: have we got to do to make ourselves better? Or 127 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 3: is there somebody else out there now? And there may 128 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 3: be some teams like the Phillies who probably see this 129 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 3: guy as an outlier. You know, they did make a 130 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 3: run at Yamamoto last year because he was a difference maker. 131 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 3: Do they have the same sort of run at a 132 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 3: guy like Soto? I don't think so if that's gonna happen, 133 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 3: because I just don't think it's a viable thing fiscally. 134 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 3: But I mean, shoot, it's not my money, and I 135 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 3: don't really know how they want to handle it, but 136 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 3: it sounds like they're gonna at least, you know, poke 137 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 3: around a little bit. But I think there's a whole 138 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,279 Speaker 3: set of things that are happening. And it also affects 139 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 3: trades because now do you have Soto or do you 140 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 3: not have Soto? What do I have to do to 141 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:28,919 Speaker 3: improve my offense? What do I have to do to 142 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 3: improve in different areas, you know, pitching wise, you know it. 143 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:38,599 Speaker 3: I don't think that is as affected by the Sodo signing. 144 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 3: But but again, you know, it's about the money. Like 145 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 3: you know, everybody's got a budget, everybody's has to figure 146 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 3: out where they want to throw their money, and it's 147 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:54,119 Speaker 3: it's always really interesting. I always felt like it always 148 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 3: felt like I had to I sort of for me, 149 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,120 Speaker 3: I like to work in the vacuum, like, Okay, these 150 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 3: are the players that are like real targets for me. 151 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,039 Speaker 3: I can't wait around for X, y or Z. If 152 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 3: X is not making himself available and that's the guy 153 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 3: I want, then I'm gonna have to go to Y 154 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:11,559 Speaker 3: or Z because I'm got to make my team better. 155 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 3: I can't let them dictate what they're going to do 156 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 3: or I'm going to try to figure out a way 157 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 3: what's best for my organization, what's best for me, and 158 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 3: I can't necessarily wait around for the market to make 159 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 3: it happen. I mean I've set the market at times. 160 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 3: I did the Papal bond signing and and sort of 161 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 3: set the market there, but I wanted the best, you know, closure, 162 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 3: I try to make a run at Matson, couldn't get 163 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 3: it done when it's a Paple bond, And so I 164 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 3: think it's really a matter of just being able to 165 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 3: manage the whole process. You know, you have your board, 166 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 3: you have your the guys that you want, and then 167 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 3: you sort of work your way down and uh. And 168 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 3: I think it's it's really it's going to be frozen 169 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 3: for a little while until Boris decides to do what 170 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 3: he needs to do with Soda. 171 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think Soda is going to hold up some 172 00:07:55,840 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 1: things because it's you know, it's that old economichilosophy about 173 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 1: high tide raises all boats. So he's going to raise 174 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 1: the tide. And Anthony Santander, you know, though he's not 175 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: in the same stratosphere financially, what he's going to get 176 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: in contract is Sodo. He's going to see some some 177 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 1: ripple effect and the Oscar Hernandez is and it's going 178 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: to affect the entire free agent pool. And this number, 179 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: we've talked about it a million times. It's going to 180 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 1: be high. And you know, as we sit here at 181 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 1: the start of a new week, November nineteenth, there's a 182 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 1: report out there, and I don't know how valid it is, 183 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:44,840 Speaker 1: but there is a report out there but noted newsbreaker 184 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:50,479 Speaker 1: Carlos by Erga, my man, my teammate. 185 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 3: He's beauty many. 186 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 1: Carlitos Byga is reporting that Soda already has a six 187 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,959 Speaker 1: hundred and sixty million dollar offer from the Mets. Again, 188 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 1: then I don't know if it's true, but apparently this 189 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 1: is being reported, and I just find that number is 190 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 1: so interesting because it is twice as much as Bryce Harper, 191 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 1: which was a one that kind of set the world 192 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: on fire, what six years ago or so. 193 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 2: That's that's that is crazy double the amount that Bryce 194 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 2: Harper is being. 195 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's true. 196 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 2: I'm just right, no, I yeah, totally. 197 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,680 Speaker 1: I mean take it with you know, be forewarned. But 198 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 1: it's being talked about, and we certainly can talk about 199 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: it here on the old Toddpod. 200 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:34,680 Speaker 2: All right. 201 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 3: I don't think there's any question that the number is 202 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 3: going to be north of five hundred million. Yeah, I 203 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:42,599 Speaker 3: think so, It's not unrealistic. I think that there's a 204 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 3: six in front of this number, you know. I know, 205 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 3: Oh Todi set the tone with the seven numbers. So 206 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:52,319 Speaker 3: who the hell knows, man, who the hell knows? It's craziness. 207 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:54,840 Speaker 3: All I know is it is craziness. That is not 208 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 3: my money. 209 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 2: Thankful, Yes, exactly right, We'll be right back. 210 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 4: I love a great deal, but I'm not going to 211 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 4: to run sprints in the outfield just to save a 212 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:06,079 Speaker 4: few bucks.

But one thing I want to ask you 234 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 2: is how come it takes so long sometimes to make 235 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 2: these trades happen? Like in other words, let's talk about 236 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 2: like Roy Halliday, for instance, you would you might talk 237 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 2: to Alex Anthropolis and then what you guys wait a 238 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 2: week and get back to each other. How can you 239 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 2: guys on not when I'm making fantasy football trades, I'm 240 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 2: texting an email and I'm getting this stuff done in 241 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 2: the day. You know, you guys drag it out for 242 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 2: for weeks and weeks, like you know, for instance, like 243 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,320 Speaker 2: you go, he says, well I want Kyle Drebick and 244 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,720 Speaker 2: Dominic Brown. Why don't you just come back five minutes 245 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 2: later say I will give you this guy, this guy. 246 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 2: How came it takes so long to get these deals done? 247 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 3: So squeeze, Yeah, I mean I'll hear three bears. There's 248 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 3: breaking points and there's points that you get to to 249 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:55,439 Speaker 3: try to get a deal done. I mean the bottom 250 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 3: line is I always felt like you have to give 251 00:11:58,160 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 3: up equity for equity. I mean you got to give 252 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 3: quality for quality. I think that's that was an important 253 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 3: thing for me and it and the question is like 254 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 3: how much is how much is enough? And when you're 255 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 3: talking about iconic type players or players who are like 256 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:15,320 Speaker 3: really really good players, guys who have value in a 257 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 3: certain way, Like when you start talking about guys like 258 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 3: Alec Bohm and Brandon Marsh, they have value, like real 259 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:26,959 Speaker 3: value because they're under control, their salaries are not huge, 260 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 3: they are product they have been productive players. So it 261 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 3: does take some time. I mean you're talking about Roy Halliday, 262 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,079 Speaker 3: for instance, that's a that's an icon Like alex antoppos 263 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 3: his first trade as you know as a GM for 264 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 3: the for the Toronto Blue Jays. I mean, he better 265 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,840 Speaker 3: not missed, you know, he better get some pretty good players. 266 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 3: And so it does, say takes some time. And then 267 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 3: there's other deals that get done, like in like four seconds. 268 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 3: You're like, Okay, I need that guy and I need 269 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,599 Speaker 3: that guy, and you know, and there's there's certain situations 270 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 3: where where that'll happen as well. But you know, typically 271 00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 3: it does take some time because especially now, it's we 272 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,680 Speaker 3: live in an era now where people don't want to 273 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 3: be fooled, they don't want to look like idiots, and 274 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 3: I mean, I think that slows some things down. I 275 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 3: think people are really creative. There's some creativity that's going 276 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:15,320 Speaker 3: on and stuff like that, and that's why it takes 277 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 3: some time. You got two, you got three team trades, trades, 278 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 3: you got all types of crack going on, and I 279 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 3: think that that's part of it. But but I think 280 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 3: in this day and age, everybody's so worried because everybody's 281 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 3: judged on the trade like immediately, That's not how it works, man. 282 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:34,959 Speaker 3: I mean, you don't judge trades on what happens today. 283 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 3: It's about what it does for your organization. And where 284 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 3: you are as an organization and how that can help 285 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 3: you today and tomorrow and the next day. And so, 286 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 3: you know, I always felt like it was important for 287 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 3: me to do us best for the organization, whether it's 288 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:55,319 Speaker 3: a move that was important for us right now or 289 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 3: for a move that's that's for later on. So there's 290 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 3: so many different dynamics that are going on right now. 291 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,839 Speaker 3: When a player becomes available, you want to make sure 292 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:09,200 Speaker 3: you maximize, you know, the the the value of that player. 293 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,320 Speaker 3: So if there's a two or three teams that are 294 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,719 Speaker 3: really interested in that, it's like you want to be 295 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 3: a little bit like the agent, right you want to 296 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 3: try to elevate that value as much as possible, get 297 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 3: as much quality as you can't. 298 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 2: Jim, what do you think is the on the trade? Uh? 299 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 2: The guys that have been mentioned most by the Philly 300 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 2: you know, Philly players have been mentioned the most as 301 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 2: trade candidates. Who do you think might have the highest 302 00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 2: value right now? 303 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: I think Alec Bohme two years of control, he's an 304 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 1: assending player, is already a good player who still has upside, uh, 305 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 1: and there are teams out there looking for third base help. 306 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 1: I think he definitely has the most value. I think 307 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:49,800 Speaker 1: that's why we're hearing a lot of his name. 308 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 3: Right ye, And I feel I actually feel badly for 309 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 3: you know, those types of players, because it's not necessarily 310 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 3: that the Phillies are like active throwing them out there, 311 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 3: but probably just listening. I mean, we went through this 312 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 3: with Bobby and Bray who had gone through this with 313 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 3: a lot of different players, where you know, all of 314 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 3: a sudden you hear this guy's name out there. Well, 315 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 3: I mean Dave Dombrowski. Basically, his job is to try 316 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 3: to create as much value with his team and do 317 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 3: what's best for the team short term and long term. 318 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 3: He's trying to win a championship, and so so he 319 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 3: owes it to himself and the organization and the fans 320 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 3: to listen to everything. 321 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 1: Does they move him? If they move him, they better 322 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: get a handsome package. Of course, I would move anybody 323 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:40,720 Speaker 1: for the right deal, for the for for a good 324 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 1: package that's going to move me forward. So uh, they 325 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 1: you know, it's it's only being responsible to listen. What 326 00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 1: I do think there's so much negativity attached to him 327 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 1: because he was in a slump at the end, and 328 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 1: he he showed some frustration Okay, he's human, you know. 329 00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:58,960 Speaker 1: I think the main reason we're hearing is name, and 330 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe a lot of this talk. Who knows, 331 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 1: maybe it's uh, it'll light a fire under him and 332 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 1: he'll he'll get over some of those frustrations and you know, 333 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 1: put together six good months. But I am no rush 334 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: to trade Alec Baum. I think he's a very good player. 335 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 1: But you know it's in coming on any good front 336 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 1: office to listen and see what what what's going to 337 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:26,680 Speaker 1: come back in a deal. But you know, Todd, you 338 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 1: were talking about how long it takes to put together 339 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 1: a deal and on on your on your fantasy football team, 340 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 1: you're a whiz. But Holiday deal, you know, that Roy 341 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 1: Halliday deal. I mean, we covered it. Rubin was working 342 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 1: on that deal the summer before. But no, actually like 343 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 1: two springs before, because didn't you go up to J. P. 344 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 1: Richardi and the GM and the Blue Jays a couple 345 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 1: of years prior and said, hey, if you ever moved 346 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 1: Roy Halliday, make sure. So that's like two or three 347 00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 1: years in the making. 348 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 3: I mean, and that was the same sort of thing 349 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 3: I think with when you start talking about the deal 350 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 3: that we ended up making for Cole Hamil's and talking 351 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 3: to John Daniels the Texas Rangers at the time. I 352 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:12,199 Speaker 3: mean he had added, you know, real interest in him 353 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,199 Speaker 3: for a long time. So I mean, you just some 354 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:18,159 Speaker 3: could happened come together really quickly, and some just you know, 355 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:20,920 Speaker 3: sort of brew and they get to the point where 356 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 3: they you know, they come to fruition. 357 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 1: What do you think, Todd of you know, the value 358 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 1: of a give me your take on the value of 359 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 1: an Alec Bohm or Ranger as far as uh, well, yeah, 360 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 1: you know. 361 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 2: It's funny because you you kind of you mentioned it, 362 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:39,679 Speaker 2: which is Alec Bohm's getting mentioned a lot. And I 363 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 2: feel like a lot of people are thinking, oh, the 364 00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:43,720 Speaker 2: Phillies aren't happy with him, like you said, because of 365 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 2: the slump, because he got benched in game two. He's 366 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 2: he's slamming helmets and whatnot. I mean, you know, Chase, 367 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,200 Speaker 2: Chase Lettley broke a lot of helmets. He just did 368 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 2: it in the tunnel or in the in the clubhouse 369 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,680 Speaker 2: when nobody could see it. But but but you're right, 370 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 2: it's I feel like Alec Bohm's name is getting mentioned 371 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 2: a lot, not because he slammed a couple helmets and 372 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,360 Speaker 2: he got benched. It's because if you're looking to make 373 00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 2: a trade with the Phillies, you know, you know, you're 374 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,399 Speaker 2: not getting Harper, you're not getting Turner, you're not getting 375 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,120 Speaker 2: wheel Er, you're not getting Nola. But Alec Boem would 376 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:15,720 Speaker 2: be available, and he's pretty cheap. You think he's projected 377 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 2: to make a little over eight million dollars next season, 378 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 2: and he's got two more years of team control, which 379 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 2: is huge. So same thing with you know, Ranger Swarz. 380 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 2: He's got one year left on his deal. I think 381 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:28,880 Speaker 2: he's got some valley because he's an All Star. He's started, 382 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:32,359 Speaker 2: he's he's pitched out of the bullpen, he's you know, 383 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 2: he's gonna make around nine million dollars. So he's also affordable. 384 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,399 Speaker 2: So I think those guys that are mentioned it doesn't 385 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,160 Speaker 2: necessarily sarily mean Jim, like you said that, the Phillies 386 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 2: are like, we got to listen, we're trade. We got 387 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,919 Speaker 2: to trade Boone. We've got a trade ranger. You know, 388 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:48,880 Speaker 2: if we can trade, we want to trade Crawford as well, 389 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 2: or Aiden Miller whatever. It's like, No, these are the 390 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:53,479 Speaker 2: players that these are the players that teams actually think 391 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,440 Speaker 2: they can get and they would want. That would make sense. 392 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:57,920 Speaker 2: You're not going to go out and trade for Taiwan Walker, 393 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 2: you know you're not. You would how Schwarbur would be 394 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 2: valuable for some team. But you know, if you're Dave Dombrowski, 395 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 2: you know you're gonna get as much bang for your buck, 396 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 2: I guess, and get what you need to get in return. 397 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 1: I don't think it's a matter of we want to 398 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:15,639 Speaker 1: trade this guy. No, the objective is we want to 399 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: get better as a ball club, and sometimes that means 400 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:22,200 Speaker 1: parting with a good player to possibly get another good 401 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 1: player back that could do different things for your ball 402 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:27,240 Speaker 1: club or improve a flaw. 403 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, what's interesting about the whole Alec Bohm thing is 404 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 3: that we've talked about this, but they really need guys 405 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 3: who can make contact and use the whole field. Well 406 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 3: that's what he kind of does. He's one of their 407 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 3: better hitters. Like you're basically eliminating or taking you know, 408 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 3: a pretty good quality hitter. 409 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 1: Now. 410 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:45,159 Speaker 3: I know he struggled in the playoffs and all that 411 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:48,679 Speaker 3: other business that happens. Everybody else struggled too, unless we 412 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 3: forget so, I mean, I mean, the reality of it is, 413 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 3: this is one of the better all around hitters gap 414 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:59,639 Speaker 3: to gap, line to line, makes good contact, put together 415 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 3: good bat sees a lot of pitches, swings it, strikes. 416 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 3: He does strike out some, but not a lot, I 417 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 3: mean compared to some of the other guys in the lineup. 418 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 3: So it's it's a it's difficult to part with the guy. 419 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 3: And that's exactly what you're sort of looking for in 420 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 3: a hitter. And uh, and so I know he's got 421 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:21,959 Speaker 3: a ton of value and if there's no way that 422 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 3: they make a deal with that, that would be involving 423 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,160 Speaker 3: him unless they can't. They sort of have to win 424 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:30,440 Speaker 3: the deal. They sort of have to win the deal 425 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 3: in order to move a guy like that. 426 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,160 Speaker 1: All right, go around the diamond, Go around the diamond, 427 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 1: starting behind the plane, and tell me who is tradeable? 428 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 2: Oh boy, wow, I mean, I guess you could trade JT. 429 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 1: Real mute. You could. 430 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:49,239 Speaker 2: He's in the last year of his deal, right. Uh, 431 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:52,199 Speaker 2: he's had a down year, but he's still considered one 432 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 2: of the better catchers in baseball. Now, I think there's 433 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 2: enough free agent catchers in the market that you could 434 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:57,879 Speaker 2: kind of piece meal it together. I don't know if 435 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:01,920 Speaker 2: I would do that necessarily, but you know he's tradable, right, 436 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 2: I mean on a last year of. 437 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 3: His deal, he's tradable. He's tradeable. 438 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:07,440 Speaker 2: I don't know what you're going to get a lot 439 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 2: for him. 440 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:10,399 Speaker 3: I don't know if you're gonna get the value. I 441 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 3: don't know if you're gonna get the value of what 442 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 3: he's going to bring to the table for the team. 443 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:16,960 Speaker 3: So he's not somebody I would necessarily trade because you've 444 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:18,879 Speaker 3: got to replace the guy you're going to place him 445 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 3: with Mark Shawn, Right. Yeah, you don't even know if 446 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 3: I can stay on the field for a month. 447 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 1: So we've we've you know, talked to the value. There 448 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:31,200 Speaker 1: might not be what you need to move him. First base, 449 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 1: you can't trade dot contract. 450 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 3: No, he's going nowhere. 451 00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:35,119 Speaker 1: Second base. 452 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he's somebody that's not mentioned a lot. 453 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 2: But I mean Bryson's stock to me, he's got what 454 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:44,159 Speaker 2: threes eligible for arbitration first time this year, projected to 455 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 2: make about three and a half million in arbitration according 456 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:49,880 Speaker 2: to Fangrafts three more years. He won't become a free 457 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,159 Speaker 2: age until after the twenty twenty seventh season. But you 458 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 2: don't hear him mentioned as much as Boem. He didn't 459 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 2: have his I mean, he had a down year, got 460 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 2: more control. 461 00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:00,400 Speaker 1: I think he's really capable of improvement. He's showing better. 462 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 1: He's a very good defender. 463 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 7: So you know, if I'm a team, like if I'm 464 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,880 Speaker 7: any team that's a sort of building and rebuilding, Man 465 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 7: Bryson Stott, I'm dying. 466 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 2: Man, what about like the Brewers they lose lose Willied. 467 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 2: I mean a team that needs a shortstop for instance. 468 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:20,120 Speaker 2: You know there's a lot of talk about how there's 469 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:22,399 Speaker 2: no shortstops on the market this year compared to the 470 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,920 Speaker 2: years past. It's Willie Thomas and not much else. Man 471 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 2: Bryson and Stott would be kind of anstry. I'd call 472 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 2: Dave and go, hey, you know what do you what 473 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 2: do you think it would take to get him? But 474 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 2: you like to maybe throw him over at shortstop? 475 00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 3: I don't know possibility certainly. I mean, hey, I would 476 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:39,679 Speaker 3: trust brighton stop that lest we forget, he was the 477 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 3: shortstop when they won you know, the National League exactly shortstop. 478 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 1: I don't think that the shortstops difficult to trade. He's 479 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 1: own so much money, he's got so many years, and 480 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 1: I just don't see the huge value anybody in the outfield, 481 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 1: so it's third base and second base. You're you know, 482 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 1: going around the diamond or your two areas of right. 483 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:04,120 Speaker 3: A couple more yeah, a couple more years are on Cassianos. 484 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:07,119 Speaker 3: It's a lot of money. He's been a productive player. 485 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:08,679 Speaker 3: But I mean, I don't know. I don't know if 486 00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 3: you're going to get the again, if you move the player, 487 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:13,399 Speaker 3: if you're going to get the value that's necessary unless 488 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:16,439 Speaker 3: you get somebody to pick up the entire tab and 489 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 3: then you can you know, utilize that money to do 490 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 3: something else with it. I just don't know. I mean, again, 491 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 3: that's part of the creativity of being a creative GM. 492 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:28,640 Speaker 3: But but again, he was one of the more consistent 493 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,119 Speaker 3: players all year last year and it sort of saved 494 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 3: them for a long time when other guys were going down. 495 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:37,640 Speaker 1: All right, let's talk ranger. Okay, I think we all 496 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 1: agree that his second half decline probably would give the 497 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:46,000 Speaker 1: front office pause about an extension this winter. It probably 498 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 1: cost him some money. It may have indeed been life 499 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:52,479 Speaker 1: changing for him. What about if your a rival GM, 500 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:56,919 Speaker 1: how much risk do you see there in possibly acquiring 501 00:23:57,040 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 1: him with a year to go? But also that shakey 502 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:03,400 Speaker 1: second half? How do you weigh all that, Rubiny. 503 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, I guess I'm closer to him and 504 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 3: know him a little bit more. But I got to 505 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 3: believe that this is a guy. If I am on 506 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,120 Speaker 3: the other side and trying to acquire, I would try 507 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 3: to make a run at this guy. And for a 508 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 3: couple of different reasons. One, I know there's some danger 509 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 3: in the health. But I mean, think about what other 510 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 3: teams have done, like with Tyler Glass. Now, they gave 511 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,240 Speaker 3: him a boatload of money, and this guy was never 512 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 3: pitched more than one hundred and twenty innings or whatever 513 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 3: the hell it was. And you're talking about a guy 514 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:35,119 Speaker 3: who is going to be pitching for a contract. He 515 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 3: does not have the big money yet. He's gonna be 516 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,840 Speaker 3: arbitration eligible this year. He's gonna make a nice piece 517 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,880 Speaker 3: of change, But the big money's coming when he becomes 518 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,120 Speaker 3: a free agent. And when he does become a freeative, 519 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 3: he puts together a year where he wins fifteen to 520 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 3: eighteen or to twenty games and stays healthy and pitches 521 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 3: one hundred and seventy to two hundred innings, he's going 522 00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:58,679 Speaker 3: to make a boatload of money. 523 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 1: Well, if he has that, I want him here this year. 524 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:05,439 Speaker 3: That's exactly right. That's that's that that's the difficulty in 525 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 3: moving a guy like that because he's pitching for the 526 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 3: big money and if he wants to then I would 527 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 3: love to have him on a one year deal. Think 528 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 3: about you know, we talk about this all the time. 529 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:17,640 Speaker 3: Nothing wrong with a one year deal, It doesn't matter 530 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,480 Speaker 3: what it is. And so you know, and that's basically 531 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:22,879 Speaker 3: what you have in Ranger Suarez and the ability and 532 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 3: he has the ability to do a couple of different things. 533 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 3: Even if he falters and he gets hurt or whatever, 534 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:29,160 Speaker 3: you can bring him back and put him in a pen. 535 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 3: I mean, he's done it. And and so he's got 536 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 3: some versatility. Obviously you want to pay him and play 537 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 3: him as a starter, but my goodness, you know, he's 538 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,960 Speaker 3: got some he's got some pedigree in him. He's got 539 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:40,880 Speaker 3: some history and. 540 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 2: Some postseason success as well. So if you're a team 541 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:47,120 Speaker 2: team that is looking to think you're a piece away, 542 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:48,879 Speaker 2: maybe not a piece away, but you know what I'm saying, 543 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 2: a guy that they can you know, he's not going 544 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 2: to shrivel up in a big situation. Rangers the guy 545 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 2: and he just you know, every every time he goes 546 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 2: out there. Even even in the against the Mets, he 547 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:02,720 Speaker 2: pitched competitively with after looking terrible really the last month 548 00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:04,120 Speaker 2: of the season in the regular. 549 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 1: Season, significant price tag coming back in a trade. So 550 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 1: I think he's another one of those listen guys that 551 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 1: I just I don't know if they can get what 552 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 1: they need to get because it has to be in 553 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 1: the back of their mind that this is his free 554 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 1: agent platform year and boy, he could turn it on. 555 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 1: You can really help you. 556 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 2: It's call and Davis talked so much about the five 557 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 2: starter spot and how it really killed it's filling half. 558 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:33,120 Speaker 1: So how do you. 559 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 2: Feel that now you know you trade Rangers, that does 560 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 2: Ranger help you get Garrett Crochet? 561 00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 3: Maybe? I don't know why that you know the Whites. 562 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 2: It depends what the package would be for the White Sox, 563 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 2: but that wouldn't necessarily make any sense. Maybe, But but yeah, 564 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 2: who's feeling who's filling that spot because Andrew Painter can't 565 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:48,920 Speaker 2: pitch both spots. 566 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, And additionally, I know they're not thinking this way 567 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:54,200 Speaker 3: because they're thinking they're going to be a contender. But listen, 568 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 3: if you know, all hell breaks loose and they have 569 00:26:57,080 --> 00:27:00,440 Speaker 3: multiple multiple injuries, and they get to the trade headline 570 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:04,440 Speaker 3: next year in twenty twenty five, that guy Rajor Suarez, 571 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 3: if he's healthy and pitching, okay, I don't know that 572 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:09,320 Speaker 3: there's a better pitcher that might be a helpful at 573 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 3: that time. So you know there's a ton of value 574 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 3: with that too. I would not move this guy unless unless, 575 00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 3: like you said, unless you winning the deal. I would 576 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:19,000 Speaker 3: certainly not move Ranger. 577 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:22,640 Speaker 2: And you have Brandon Marsh and Johann Rojas have been 578 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 2: mentioned in moving with one. 579 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:28,680 Speaker 3: Of those guys obviously under control players. Brandon Marsh probably 580 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 3: has a higher ceiling as an all around player. I 581 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:34,399 Speaker 3: think he's a good player, but he hasn't really taken 582 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 3: the next step forward. A lot of strikeouts. You know, 583 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,679 Speaker 3: there's I like Brandon. I just feel like he's a 584 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:42,920 Speaker 3: guy that they sort of have to figure out where 585 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 3: they can where can they improve, And I think left 586 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 3: field centerfield is a place where they can improve the club. 587 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:55,159 Speaker 2: What about what about prospects? In what condition? Were you 588 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 2: trade in Andrew Painter and Aiden Miller? Again, you know 589 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 2: Andrew Painter was off limits to the trade deadline. Dave 590 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:02,480 Speaker 2: did not want to move him. I don't know about 591 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:05,120 Speaker 2: Aiden Miller. But just talking again to people, you guys 592 00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 2: have heard the same thing. Aiden Miller might be the 593 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:10,159 Speaker 2: best Phillies position player prospects since at least Chase Utley, 594 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 2: going back at least twenty years or more, and that'd 595 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 2: be tough to trade. 596 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:20,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, Painter, they're not trading Painter. You can 597 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 1: just tell why everything they say, the way they've treated him, 598 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 1: and what he could be, they're not trading Painter. It's 599 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 1: not even worth talking about. Looking you just did in 600 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:31,719 Speaker 1: the Arizona Fall League. Wasn't any picture of the year 601 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:32,480 Speaker 1: out there? 602 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that's not saying much because there's not 603 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 3: much pitching out there. I mean, you know, he's pretty great. 604 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 3: He's really special. Man. He's got a chance to be 605 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 3: really special. 606 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: There's no chance there and Miller, you know, I guess 607 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 1: you'd keep your ears open, but I think it would 608 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 1: be very difficult. Crawford did. Oh yeah, but you listen 609 00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 1: on everybody because it's about one of the world's You 610 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 1: think somebody can help you win the World Series. You 611 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 1: got to do the deal right exactly. 612 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 3: One of the pieces of difficulty for moving guy like 613 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 3: Miller is that one he sort of has the profile 614 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 3: of the player that they're looking for. The guy that 615 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 3: doesn't strike out a lot, has good basically hitting is 616 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 3: back to ball skills, you know, good swing decisions, all 617 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 3: that stuff. And he's young, and he's got a chance 618 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:23,280 Speaker 3: to I know, he's away because prospects or prospects, I 619 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 3: get it, but he has a chance to be that guy. 620 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 3: Number one. 621 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 1: He plays He plays short and third, which you know 622 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 1: could be in flux in the next year or two. 623 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 3: Right. And so the other part of that is that, 624 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 3: you know, I mean to me, you've got some guys 625 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 3: who are going to be on big numbers contracts, and 626 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 3: they're going to be in the mid thirties soon, and 627 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 3: then they're gonna be in the late thirties soon, and 628 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 3: then you know, so their production is gonna you know, 629 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:50,240 Speaker 3: it's gonna work, you know, converse to you know, to 630 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 3: their value of their contracts. And so you need young 631 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:58,200 Speaker 3: players who you feel can fill in roles that when 632 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 3: you start losing some of that production out of those 633 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 3: big contracts, he needs people to pick it up, especially 634 00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:09,480 Speaker 3: when John Middleton says he wants several of those trophies 635 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 3: back exactly right. 636 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:14,560 Speaker 1: You need you need that type of payroll balance. You 637 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,959 Speaker 1: need to be mixing, mixing in the lower salary as 638 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 1: as your other guys get more and more expensive, and 639 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 1: that's how you keep turning it. 640 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's easy to say, just keep spending guys 641 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 2: and just hold on, you know, don't worry about that. 642 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 2: But you have to have some of those young guys 643 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 2: come up. What didn't wasn't Paul Owens. They said, you 644 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 2: have to want to have two guys every year from 645 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,360 Speaker 2: your farm system come up and make contributions to kind 646 00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:39,440 Speaker 2: of maintain the health of the of the system. 647 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 3: He used to say, if you had one and a 648 00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 3: half players that was on average one and a half 649 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 3: players a year who had impact on your major league team, 650 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 3: then you're then you're doing a good job in your system. 651 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 3: It's probably ring probably still rings true. 652 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:54,680 Speaker 1: What did you say about pitching Ruber, Like you needed 653 00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 1: eight or ten to get. 654 00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 3: You need fifty of them. 655 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, because the attrition rate is so. 656 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:06,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just so tough, especially now you know there's 657 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 3: so you know, I mean, they're limiting innings and all 658 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 3: that kind of stuff. Guys are going down. The velocities 659 00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 3: are so high that they're breaking down at a ridiculous rate. 660 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 3: And so it's not it's no longer you need like 661 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 3: six or seven. Now it's like you need you know, 662 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 3: nine to twelve starting right, which is crazy, but that's reality. 663 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 2: Well, I think like in twenty eleven the Phillies have 664 00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 2: that was like, you guys use like seven starters that year. 665 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,239 Speaker 2: It was an insane at the moment, Yeah, it was. 666 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:37,160 Speaker 2: It was like seven or eight maybe, and every year 667 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 2: since then it's been eight or more, and it's usually 668 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,240 Speaker 2: been in the double digits of number of starters used. 669 00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 2: So I remember, Andrew Painter is probably not going to 670 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 2: be up until mid season because he can't go out 671 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 2: and throw one hundred and eighty ings. So you're gonna 672 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:53,080 Speaker 2: you need two guys, you know, if assuming well Ranger 673 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 2: comes back, assuming Ranger comes back, and you need somebody 674 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 2: to fill a fifth spot until Andrew Painter comes up, 675 00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 2: if he comes up. So it's funny because we've talked 676 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:02,560 Speaker 2: about these guys and it's like, I wonder who. We've 677 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:05,480 Speaker 2: talked about all the reasons why they're attractive, we talked 678 00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 2: about all the reasons why they might not be traded, 679 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:10,320 Speaker 2: why would be difficult to trade those players, But they're 680 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 2: gonna have to trade one of those guys or two 681 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 2: of those guys, right, I mean you would think, would 682 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 2: you guys be surprised if you know, there wasn't a 683 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 2: big trade that was made at some point, Yeah, I'd be. 684 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 1: Surprised with not trade because they have holes they need 685 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 1: to fill, and with the payroll climbing and you know, 686 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 1: butting up against the third tax threshold, it's gonna have 687 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 1: to as you tweak this team, it's gonna have to 688 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 1: be a mix of trades and free agent signings. And 689 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: they where their peril is they just can't do all 690 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 1: free agent signings. 691 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's gonna be Uh, things will start picking 692 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 2: up soon. You know, There's some some things coming up 693 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:56,760 Speaker 2: in the next week, in the next couple of weeks 694 00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 2: that will maybe get the ball rolling on some signings 695 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,400 Speaker 2: and stuff. In fact, I'm going to run through this 696 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 2: real quick. So tonight, Tuesday night, six pm Eastern is 697 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 2: the date that teams have to put players on the 698 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 2: forty man roster to protect them from the Rule five draft. 699 00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 2: The Phillies right now, I think have thirty seven players 700 00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:19,920 Speaker 2: on the forty man So we think, Mick Abel, right, 701 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,520 Speaker 2: we think and Moissey's Chasse are the two most likely 702 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:24,080 Speaker 2: guys to get put on. They could put a third 703 00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:26,360 Speaker 2: guy on there. That could be there's a host of 704 00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 2: guys that they could pick pitchers, position players or whatever. 705 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 2: But that's tonight six pm. Put guys on the forty 706 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 2: man protect them from the rule five and then Friday 707 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 2: night eight pm Eastern. I've canceled my Friday night plans, guys, 708 00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:49,560 Speaker 2: because it's the tender deadline. So tender and really I 709 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 2: think the only Philly player that probably will be non 710 00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:55,480 Speaker 2: tendered it could be non tendered as Austin Hayes. I mean, 711 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:59,320 Speaker 2: Dave has really drops some serious hints that you know, 712 00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:01,400 Speaker 2: we don't know what gonna do it Austin Hayes yet, 713 00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 2: So that indicates to me that he's he's in the 714 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 2: mix there to get non tendered. You know, I think 715 00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:08,319 Speaker 2: everybody else that's in there, Garrett Stubbs is on there. 716 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:09,920 Speaker 2: They could figure out a deal to keep him in 717 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,799 Speaker 2: the system if they wanted to, I guess. But most 718 00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:14,319 Speaker 2: of those guys will be back. So you got those 719 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 2: two things could open some things up, right, Guys getting 720 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:17,919 Speaker 2: non tendered. 721 00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:21,759 Speaker 3: You never know, man, I love that non tender date 722 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:24,040 Speaker 3: because you can come up with a Jason Werther or two. 723 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:28,000 Speaker 2: That's right, that's right, that's right. 724 00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 1: Names from other other You know, you're gonna have a 725 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 1: bunch of free agents, new free agents, right, That's an 726 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 1: interesting way to spend a Friday night waiting for the 727 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 1: non tenders. Rubin, on the other hair will be out 728 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:46,120 Speaker 1: in Old City having underloin watching. 729 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 5: Exactly right. 730 00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:51,600 Speaker 3: And actually Friday night, believe it or not, I'm going 731 00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:56,480 Speaker 3: to be honoring l A a lot is going to 732 00:34:57,120 --> 00:34:57,960 Speaker 3: enter some. 733 00:34:57,880 --> 00:34:58,439 Speaker 1: Hall of fame. 734 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:02,240 Speaker 3: Nice aactly what it is? But he said, yeah, he's entering, 735 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:05,560 Speaker 3: But I think the Philadelphia Broadcaster is hall of fame. 736 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:09,759 Speaker 3: Oh cool, be honored. So I'll get a chance to 737 00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:13,440 Speaker 3: honor mister Larry Anderson. He's been a true joy and 738 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:16,640 Speaker 3: he made a great move by not accepting my offer 739 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:20,719 Speaker 3: to become our pitching coach. That's right, smart, smart move. 740 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:24,319 Speaker 3: That's that worked that well for him? It did? It did? Uh? 741 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:24,600 Speaker 1: Then? 742 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 2: Well, so we'll be back later later this week, maybe 743 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 2: some maybe the Phillies have made something go happen by then. 744 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,160 Speaker 2: If not, though there's plenty more to talk about. We 745 00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 2: could talk about the Hall of Fame ballot based BBWA 746 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 2: today released his twenty twenty five Hall of Fame ballot. 747 00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 2: There's four returning Phillies, Bobby Bray, Jimmy Rewnds, Chase Le, 748 00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:44,839 Speaker 2: Billy Wagner. Billy Wagner felt just short last year. This 749 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 2: is his tenth and final year ofgibility. And then Wednesday 750 00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:52,720 Speaker 2: night the nl Cy Young is announced and Zach Wheeler 751 00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:54,680 Speaker 2: as a finalist for that. I think Chris Sale is 752 00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:55,160 Speaker 2: gonna win. 753 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:58,080 Speaker 3: It, I do. Yeah, that's gonna suck good. Yeah, I 754 00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:00,000 Speaker 3: think is where I think wheel should get it. 755 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:02,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I think I think it's probably gonna be Chris. 756 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 2: It would be an upset if if Zach, I think 757 00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:08,560 Speaker 2: edged out Chris Sale. But I think I think Zach 758 00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 2: is worthy of course. So yeah, So we'll be back 759 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 2: later this week. We talked a lot of trades. Now 760 00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 2: they just got to make some give us something to 761 00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:18,560 Speaker 2: write about, give us something more to talk about. 762 00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,600 Speaker 3: Let me make sure I get this right.
