1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,320 Speaker 1: If you got pop for doing steroids, then you should 2 00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:04,280 Speaker 1: not be in the whole thing. And my thing with Pete, 3 00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:06,320 Speaker 1: why Pete does it because you broke the gold game. 4 00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:08,119 Speaker 2: You don't Kim. That's it. That's it. 5 00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:13,239 Speaker 3: I know AJ will like this. 6 00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:16,759 Speaker 4: So before we talk about baseball, the NBA playoffs are 7 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:21,120 Speaker 4: going on right now. Forget that the NBA Draft lottery 8 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:22,840 Speaker 4: happened and. 9 00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:25,680 Speaker 3: The conspiracy theories were flying. I was reading an article. 10 00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 1: Every time the MAVs lose, like their best player, they 11 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,240 Speaker 1: get the first pick in the draft. It's like happened 12 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:33,640 Speaker 1: three times, but it was like they're the magic got 13 00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:35,240 Speaker 1: Shack and the next yer they got Penny. 14 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:39,240 Speaker 3: But do you think that something is getting rigged. It's 15 00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:40,560 Speaker 3: kind of hard to pull that off. 16 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:42,639 Speaker 2: It's not the cold ping pong ball, the frozen ping 17 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:45,240 Speaker 2: pong ball. You haven't heard the conspiracy. 18 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:47,920 Speaker 3: Theories that you can rig the ping pong balls. 19 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a way, like if you freeze them or something, 20 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:52,839 Speaker 2: it goes. I don't know. 21 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:54,480 Speaker 1: There was there's a whole thing about it. If you 22 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 1: got to go online, it gets deep. This should be 23 00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 1: in the weeds. 24 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:02,000 Speaker 4: So should I buy into any of this or believe 25 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:04,480 Speaker 4: what I was reading last night, which was how there 26 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:07,319 Speaker 4: would have to be a lot of crooks involved to 27 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:08,760 Speaker 4: pull something like this off. 28 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: All it really needs to be is is is a couple? Yeah, 29 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 1: but it's not worth Commissioner, whoever does the people right? 30 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 1: The Jews ain't worth the squeeze just because you get 31 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 1: the first pick. Look at the Sixers. They've squandered that. 32 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:24,320 Speaker 1: Just because you get the first pick doesn't mean you're 33 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 1: getting Jordan. 34 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 5: Or Shack. 35 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:29,279 Speaker 3: The flag. It's pretty good. 36 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: They've You got to trust the process with the Sixers, 37 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 1: they're still in the process, twelve year process. Right, Embid 38 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 1: is still trusting the process, and now In doesn't trust 39 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: his kneecaps. 40 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 3: What about for tanking teams? You gotta trust the process. 41 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,319 Speaker 1: With the White that's the White Sox and the Rockies 42 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: are going to get the tenth pick next year. 43 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 3: How about the Orioles. They went through a process. They 44 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 3: lost fans. 45 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 2: For six they're losing. They're losing a lot of games. 46 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 3: Now they're losing a lot of games. We're going to 47 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 3: talk about them. 48 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 4: All right, Let's charge the mound and talk about the 49 00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 4: top record in Major League Baseball, right, yeah, talking about 50 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 4: and that record belongs to the Detroit Tigers twenty nine 51 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 4: and fifteen, a half game better right now than the Dodgers, 52 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 4: one game up on the Padres and the Mets for 53 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 4: best overall record in Major League Baseball. They pull off 54 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 4: another thrilling win yesterday, despite the play of the year 55 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 4: in my mind and the call of the year in 56 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:28,800 Speaker 4: my mind. 57 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 3: By the visiting broadcaster. 58 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 4: Visiting broadcaster, Oh, I didn't hear the Red Sox one. 59 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:36,639 Speaker 3: I only heard I was watch Red Sox one was 60 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 3: good too. 61 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 2: I was watching the Tigers, not so as I. 62 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 4: Heard the Red Sox one later. The Tigers one was money. 63 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 4: And he had so many little bits and pieces that 64 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 4: he added to it, like pinball, and if there was 65 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 4: goaltending in baseball, this would be it. He was just 66 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,920 Speaker 4: on fire. It was one of those where he, you know, 67 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 4: had a heat check crats. He was like, let me 68 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:00,640 Speaker 4: toss one thing out there that no one else would, okay, 69 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 4: that hit. Let me toss another out there that no 70 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 4: one else would that hit, And then you have to 71 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 4: wait for a second and go. This was the visiting broadcast. 72 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 4: Some visiting broadcasters still would be like, it makes the catch. Uh, 73 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 4: And I'm watching right and I'm like this is exciting 74 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,239 Speaker 4: because especially nowadays, scrats a lot of people do watch, 75 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:20,640 Speaker 4: you know, from other places on like MLB dot TV, 76 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:22,800 Speaker 4: and so you get sometimes you don't get to choose 77 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 4: the broadcast the way you want. And Jason Bennetti delivered, 78 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 4: but really also so did sit on Raphaela and will 79 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,359 Speaker 4: You're a bray you They look like they finish each 80 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 4: other's sentences, look like it looked like whiffle ball in 81 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 4: the backyard, Like this is like the the joy everybody's 82 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 4: joy and reaction. 83 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 5: It wasn't the. 84 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 6: Non chalant like whatever bro like pound your chest, look 85 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 6: at me, Like it looked like whiffle ball in the 86 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 6: backyard where you can't go over a certain line and 87 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 6: you gotta like jump to knock it back in and 88 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 6: your buddy's there just trying to make the catch. 89 00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 5: I love it. It was great. 90 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 1: It was one of the better catches. It was one 91 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 1: of the coolest catches. Can't really call it a better 92 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: great catch because it was it was such a a 93 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 1: clunky like kind of niche niche catch, but it was 94 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: cool catch just because the way they Brady brought it 95 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 1: back and then why was Raffael think how far Rafael 96 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:20,159 Speaker 1: had to run to get. 97 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 2: There, and he was right there perfectly. 98 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 1: Now you've seen guys pop him up and in the 99 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:26,720 Speaker 1: infield and Guy's other guys catch it, but you never 100 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 1: see this in the outfield. So for him to jump 101 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: up Hendrick, they just tied the game. Hendrick was like, oh, 102 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,479 Speaker 1: it's six to five, I'm giving it up. And then that, 103 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: I mean, it's just it's awesome. I mean, Hendricks is like, 104 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,679 Speaker 1: Hendrick says some words we can't repeat on the show, 105 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:48,360 Speaker 1: but I mean, and then Bennetti's call and Andy Dirks 106 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:52,359 Speaker 1: was his color guy was just perfect and Benetti pinball 107 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 1: and saying all the things he said. 108 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 2: It was just it was. It was one of the 109 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 2: and the Tigers won. 110 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 1: And but the interesting part about the Tiger's winning, our 111 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 1: boy j Hen was one got the hit, yep, not 112 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:02,919 Speaker 1: Hovey bias. They had a run around third and no 113 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 1: outs and they strike out, I believe, and then Jay 114 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:10,720 Speaker 1: Hen came up with the hit with two outs. So 115 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 1: the Tigers are doing it right now, they're doing it. 116 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 6: They're really good, fun to watch. They're fun to watch. 117 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,279 Speaker 6: There's no they make adjustments. I know, big leag teams 118 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 6: make adjustments and really good teams, really good lineups, make 119 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,920 Speaker 6: adjustments through the game, and they like you know, they 120 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 6: attack like the Dodgers, just attack like weaknesses and teams 121 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 6: bullpens like guys are tipping. It looks like the Tigers 122 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 6: when you watch an entire game. They feed off of 123 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 6: each others at bats and they just wear teams down 124 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 6: to the point where they get to that situation. I 125 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,559 Speaker 6: thought they were gonna blow it and they were gonna 126 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 6: go into extras, but obviously Jay hen comes through with 127 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 6: a huge not It just seems like they're always putting 128 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 6: themselves in situations to knock the pitcher out, get the 129 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 6: winning hit, start a round, whatever it is. 130 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 5: They're fun to. 131 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 3: Watch, obviously. Scoobles being Scoobale. 132 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 2: Scooble pitch really good. 133 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 1: Scoobale won my lock last night by he got the 134 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 1: one out he needed and he was rolling and I 135 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: was like, huh easy, and then all of a sudden 136 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: he gave up three runs. I out of nowhere and 137 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: it was five to five, and Tommy Cainley, our guy, 138 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 1: came in through change ups and got out of it 139 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:23,600 Speaker 1: basic load. I think one out, got out of it, 140 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: got a double play and then they went on to 141 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 1: hold them off until they scored. But Tigers are playing great, man, 142 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 1: The Tigers are the Tigers. It's hard for me not 143 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:34,360 Speaker 1: to say the Tigers are the best team in the 144 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 1: American League right now. 145 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 2: It's hard to. I mean they are. I think they are. 146 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 4: The second best record in the American League belongs to 147 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:45,599 Speaker 4: the Yankees. Those are two very different looking teams. 148 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: The Tigers are like the young, energetic, and the Yankees 149 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: are more like the older. We're just gonna bludge in 150 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 1: you to death because we know what we're doing. Whereas 151 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,599 Speaker 1: the Tigers are just fun to watch. Yeah, they're fun 152 00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:58,599 Speaker 1: as hell to watch. 153 00:06:58,760 --> 00:06:59,719 Speaker 3: Yankees are just power. 154 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:01,279 Speaker 2: Yeah. 155 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:05,040 Speaker 3: Tigers have a more dynamic team. They do a little 156 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:05,839 Speaker 3: bit of everything right. 157 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 2: They're more fun. 158 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I can't argue with that. I think they're 159 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,559 Speaker 6: playing the best. Do you believe they're the best built team? 160 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 6: That would be that would be my only question. Do 161 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 6: you think they're built better than the Yankees? Or you 162 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 6: could even ask the question, it might be a different answer. 163 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 6: Do you think they're more they're built better to have 164 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 6: more success in the postseason when you're only facing Trek 165 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 6: Scoble to you know, Brendan Hanafee to Tommy Kinley to 166 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 6: you know, the best of the best from every team. 167 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 4: This is a straightforward show, so I'm going to be 168 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 4: very straightforward with everyone about p XG.

To me, they're they're best equipped to make 199 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 1: a run in the World Series. Ye Now, can they 200 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: beat a National League team? 201 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 5: I don't know. 202 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 2: We'll see, but I love the Tigers. 203 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 3: They can keep up with the National League team. 204 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 4: But to me, it still holds true this year, just 205 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 4: like it did last year, the National League is significantly 206 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 4: better than ridiculously better. This is one of the more 207 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 4: lopsided years I've seen since I've been alive. There's so 208 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 4: many exactly this year. 209 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 2: Again, name start naming the top National League team's year 210 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:37,439 Speaker 2: at four or five at least before he gets to 211 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:37,959 Speaker 2: the Tigers. 212 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 6: Yes, but last year, last year, it felt like it 213 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 6: came to fruition. It came to like, Okay, we see 214 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 6: that the Padres are good this year. It just feels 215 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 6: like the National League is just good right out of 216 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 6: the jump. Look what the Cubs had to do. The 217 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,199 Speaker 6: Cubs easily had the toughest record, I mean, the toughest 218 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 6: schedule through this first month and a half. 219 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 5: And look where they're like there. 220 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 6: Is they just have Nationally teams have from the jump 221 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 6: started playing. The Braves are five hundred team right now. 222 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,559 Speaker 6: We don't think they're gonna end five hundred. So the 223 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 6: National League's a gauntlet. 224 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the difference. 225 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 4: You're gonna look at the National League and say, there's 226 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 4: some teams that don't make the playoffs that looked really good. 227 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 4: I don't know if you're gonna get that in the 228 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 4: American League. I think in the American League you're gonna 229 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 4: be like, yeah, this lines up. These teams didn't make it. 230 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 3: They're not good enough. 231 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:33,680 Speaker 4: You might even have a wildcard team or two where 232 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 4: you're like me, they're stumbling to the finish line, just 233 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 4: not as deep. 234 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 1: No, I mean, it's much easier to start looking at 235 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:43,079 Speaker 1: the National League. Teams have a chance to make the 236 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 1: World Series. And win because you then if you look 237 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:50,680 Speaker 1: go if the American League, you are like, ah, Orioles out, Twins, 238 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 1: do we buy them? I know they're on the ten 239 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 1: win street. 240 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 2: Do we buy them? 241 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 5: Right? 242 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 2: I mean Mariners? Do we buy them? With all their 243 00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 2: pitching injuries? 244 00:10:58,520 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 5: Right? 245 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 2: Yankees?

And if 258 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 6: you don't win one series against a really good squad, 259 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,680 Speaker 6: they put themselves up against the wall by trying to 260 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 6: have to beat Scooball. 261 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:37,679 Speaker 5: In the final game of the series. 262 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 6: You gotta beat You gotta take one out of these 263 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,959 Speaker 6: series if you're not just gonna hover right around five. 264 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 3: Hundred crutting pitching this series. 265 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I mean. 266 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 3: Just throwing it out there. 267 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 2: Three nothing.

Then they obviously fell apart down the stretch, 440 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 4: but more surprising to see the Twins get this hot after. 441 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 3: Starting out so slow. 442 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 4: Or are we going to be talking about the Oriel 443 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:18,959 Speaker 4: selling parts at the trade bar? 444 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 2: Could they keep going the way they're going? 445 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 3: I mean, it's getting late early in Baltimore. 446 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:27,240 Speaker 4: And you mentioned this yesterday when we got off the 447 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 4: show and we were taking a peek at the game 448 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:30,159 Speaker 4: because it was going on. 449 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 3: It's a day game midweek. But if you win, they 450 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 3: will show up. 451 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:39,920 Speaker 4: If you don't, then let me take you a few 452 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 4: years back to when the team tanked. 453 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,160 Speaker 1: And I was I used to dread going to Baltimore 454 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 1: because there was not a lot of people there. No, 455 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,439 Speaker 1: it was seven thousand degrees in Baltimore. You always get 456 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:51,479 Speaker 1: at least one day game there and there was nobody 457 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,440 Speaker 1: there and it was a raindelate. Every single time. We're like, gosh, 458 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get rangelated in Baltimore. But yeah, I mean, listen, 459 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,440 Speaker 1: they're fifteen and twenty six. They lose right now, they're 460 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,919 Speaker 1: fifteen and t twenty seven. That is that we're not 461 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:04,879 Speaker 1: talking like, Okay, the Brave started out Owen seven. They 462 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:08,159 Speaker 1: played the Dodgers potterish seven. Fine, they got plenty, they 463 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 1: got one hundred fifty five games. We're past the quarter point. 464 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 1: Now you're it's starting. It's as Yogi Bear said, it's 465 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:16,200 Speaker 1: getting late early, big fellow. 466 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 3: What was the Astros record last year that was bad? 467 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 3: Wasn't it sixteen and twenty six? Or was it? Does 468 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 3: that sound right? I'll find it. 469 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:24,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, but they weren't in the AOL East. 470 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:26,160 Speaker 3: That's that was what I wanted to make. 471 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 6: And they had pitching, yeah, and they had starting pitching. 472 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 6: They didn't just have Sigano. Sigano's throat was thrown today. 473 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:35,359 Speaker 6: I don't know if he's still in the game or not. 474 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 6: But that was their that was their chance. That was 475 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 6: their guy. 476 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is this is bad. This is bad. This 477 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 2: is bad. If you're an Raals fan, I'm sorry. This 478 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 2: is bad. This is what we said going in a 479 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:50,480 Speaker 2: year though, Right, it's bad. 480 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 6: Says that we didn't think it was gonna be bad. 481 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 6: It's bad, Like, yes, the starting pitching is bad. They 482 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,919 Speaker 6: didn't end up getting the guys that we thought they 483 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,719 Speaker 6: should have gotten or they were trying to go get. 484 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,919 Speaker 6: They missed out on different things. I get that, but 485 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,440 Speaker 6: we thought the pitching with the starting pitching wasn't gonna 486 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 6: be great and then Grayson goes down. 487 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 5: But where are. 488 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 6: Some of the guys in this lineup you talk about? 489 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:18,160 Speaker 6: We just talked about Max and like hitting together as 490 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:21,360 Speaker 6: a team, figuring this stuff out. Is it something that 491 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 6: this lineup has not like learned to hit with each other? 492 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 6: But they did hit. I mean, Gunner was an MVP 493 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 6: candidate last year, and it's just what is what is it? 494 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,400 Speaker 6: I know people are gonna say their expected numbers are 495 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 6: just through the roof. They should be doing so much better, 496 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:41,879 Speaker 6: but they're not. 497 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 4: We had a lot of fly balls two hundred and 498 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 4: fifty to three hundred feet. 499 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 1: The problem is that, I mean the offense. I mean, 500 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:52,679 Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask this and I've said this, We've been 501 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 1: saying this rong. 502 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:56,400 Speaker 2: What's wrong with Adley Ritchman. It's been almost a year now. 503 00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 1: I mean we're not talking like a couple of weeks 504 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:01,440 Speaker 1: or we're going to this second half of June around 505 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,120 Speaker 1: June first last year and we're almost a June first again. 506 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 1: You look at his numbers.

It's Gunnar Henderson. The rest 513 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,440 Speaker 1: of that lineup is not in a good place right now. 514 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:25,400 Speaker 1: You're right, read the ops isn't read all that. I mean, 515 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:29,639 Speaker 1: it's it's not a good lineup right now. I'm sorry. 516 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 2: It's just not. 517 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 3: On the year. 518 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,679 Speaker 4: I would say probably the other one that stands out. 519 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:36,680 Speaker 4: And I'm looking at the numbers so I don't sound stupid, Yeah, 520 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 4: I'm right. Cedric Mullins is also looking pretty good. 521 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:42,880 Speaker 1: Well, Heart's having a nice year, yeah, right, but it's 522 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 1: not enough, no, I mean Cursed Ads six twenty six, Obs, 523 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,680 Speaker 1: you know, Rutchman six twenty three, Holiday seven oh one, Okay, 524 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:54,879 Speaker 1: Mountcastle six point fifteen, Mullins is seven eighty one and 525 00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:58,120 Speaker 1: that you know, and you O'Hearn eight ninety three. He's 526 00:22:58,119 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 1: having a really nice year. 527 00:22:59,080 --> 00:22:59,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, but. 528 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:02,719 Speaker 2: Their whole thing, right was supposed to be they can 529 00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:03,399 Speaker 2: out slug you. 530 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:06,720 Speaker 4: Last year they had a top five offense. I watched 531 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 4: Fair Territory. Ken Rosenthal talked about this this year. I 532 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 4: think they ranked twenty fifth right now in Runsberg game. 533 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:18,399 Speaker 4: So it's all falling apart right now. And does it 534 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 4: Mattercrats that they're often down in this exact scenario. 535 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:23,120 Speaker 3: This is what happens in. 536 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,920 Speaker 4: So many games already this year. You're down three to 537 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:29,160 Speaker 4: nothing mid game. Obviously, yes they should be scoring two. 538 00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:33,719 Speaker 4: But it do feel like they're playing behind so frequently 539 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:37,159 Speaker 4: due to the starting pitching deficiency. 540 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 6: Yes, but to me, when you're on team like that, 541 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 6: it's July that that shows up. 542 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:43,880 Speaker 5: You're not like. 543 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 6: Exhausted from the same thing happening over and over again 544 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 6: in the first forty games of the year. 545 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:53,200 Speaker 5: Like if you're in July and you're like, oh. 546 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,160 Speaker 6: We got a lead, we got a one run lead 547 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,880 Speaker 6: in the seventh, and then your bullpen has just habitually 548 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 6: blown it all season, and then two then you're a rundown. 549 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:04,440 Speaker 6: They give up a two run homer and you're a rundown. 550 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 6: That's when you're like, uh, deflating. This team is built 551 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 6: on the offense. These are young dudes that are playing 552 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,840 Speaker 6: every single day and they need to step up and 553 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 6: make their expected batting averages and balls in play and 554 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,719 Speaker 6: all these expected stats turn into W's or else. It 555 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:23,720 Speaker 6: is way too late. 556 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 4: They also didn't develop on the pitching side like many 557 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 4: thought they would. Chase McDermott was supposed to be a 558 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 4: mid rotation guy. I think he's been hurt. I think 559 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 4: he's still hurt. Kid Povich hasn't worked out yet. So 560 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 4: some of the guys, and he's twenty five, Some of 561 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 4: the guys that they expected on the pitching side just 562 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 4: haven't developed. Of course, the headliner there is our boy, 563 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 4: Grayson Rodriguez. Money when he's there. He just hasn't been 564 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:50,680 Speaker 4: able to figure out how to stay on the field. 565 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 4: So when you add those guys up the development sides 566 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:57,240 Speaker 4: of problem. They're making mistakes on who they're selecting in 567 00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:03,159 Speaker 4: free agency with the starting rotation, and that becomes a mess. 568 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:06,480 Speaker 4: You have a slow start on offense. Now you have 569 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:09,680 Speaker 4: a disaster. That's where we're at right now. 570 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:11,440 Speaker 5: And what do they do though? 571 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 2: What's the answer this year? Nothing? 572 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:14,640 Speaker 5: Right? 573 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 3: What can they do? 574 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:18,920 Speaker 4: You're not trading for a starter right now. Nobody makes 575 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 4: trades in May anymore. I think unless they go on 576 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 4: a heater krats there might be eight games under five 577 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:31,400 Speaker 4: hundred sel City in late June, early July. 578 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,000 Speaker 5: Do you believe this team can go on a heater. 579 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 2: Not the way they're pitching is lined up right now. 580 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 4: Not with the pitching. No, because you can get stopped. Okay, 581 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 4: you can get stopped in five seconds with a bat outing. 582 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:49,120 Speaker 4: No matter how hot you are, you can lose ten eight. 583 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,680 Speaker 4: So me, no, I don't see them doing ten plus 584 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 4: in a row right now. Maybe in like August or 585 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:58,080 Speaker 4: September if everybody's back, But man, I mean you might 586 00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:02,640 Speaker 4: be in a significant hole by then. Sometimes we get 587 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:06,240 Speaker 4: the asks for lightweight hoodies and I'm like, uh, they exist. 588 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 4: They're awesome at roeback. 589 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 7: Without a doubt, comfort, lightweight, durability.

Cubs, Dodgers, 605 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 4: Padres met to get a's. There's b pluses for the Phillies, Giants, 606 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:09,199 Speaker 4: and the Cardinals, the Diamondbacks, gotta b c's for the 607 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 4: Reds and Brewers. D's for the Braves, Marlins and Nationals. 608 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:15,359 Speaker 4: F's for the Rockies and the Pirates. Christ do you 609 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 4: want to pick on one first? 610 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 6: You know what, I would say, one of those a's 611 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 6: needs to have a plus beside it, and to me 612 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,680 Speaker 6: it's the Padres. I think what the Padres have done, 613 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:28,880 Speaker 6: I get it there, and they've had. 614 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 5: An A first quarter. 615 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:35,119 Speaker 6: But with what they have with the with the people 616 00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 6: who they've lost, Jackson, Merrill, Muscrove's not there right now, you, 617 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 6: Darvis hasn't thrown a pitch yet, they have absolutely had 618 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 6: an A plus first quarter because what they're doing is 619 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 6: they're setting a different precedent for that division that it's 620 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:57,879 Speaker 6: not just gonna be the Dodgers. And to me, the 621 00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 6: Dodgers were supposed to be there. So in their account 622 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 6: were they supposed to be a B? And you know what, 623 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 6: the Rockies shouldn't get an F. The Rockies shouldn't even 624 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:09,919 Speaker 6: be They should just get an NA or what did 625 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 6: they put on your report card when you an I incomplete? 626 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,920 Speaker 5: They didn't get a great? Yeah, they dropped out. They 627 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,840 Speaker 5: clearly have dropped out of school expelled. 628 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 3: Hey for me, I know this sounds. 629 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 2: Like Arizona to me, shouldn't have a B. 630 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:25,560 Speaker 3: What should they have? 631 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:27,359 Speaker 1: They should be a C because they should be better 632 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 1: than what they are. To me, they should be a 633 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:32,720 Speaker 1: better team than what they are. They're twenty three and 634 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:34,919 Speaker 1: twenty one, and I mean, I know they've had some injuries, 635 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 1: but every team's had injuries, you know. But Edward Rodriguez 636 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 1: hasn't pitched very well, Corbyn Burns, you know, they haven't 637 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: pitched the way we thought they would pitch going into 638 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:47,000 Speaker 1: this year. That's they're negative rounder differential. I know you 639 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 1: don't care, Scott, but that's telling right now. It's surprising me. 640 00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: They do play the Rockies though, coming up, so they've 641 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 1: got a shout to win three in a row, not. 642 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 4: To get hot, But how did they get a B 643 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 4: and the Braves get a D when they're missing their 644 00:28:58,400 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 4: two best players. 645 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right. San Francisco to me, should be an 646 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 2: A too. 647 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 1: The fact that they're doing as well as they are, agreed, 648 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 1: because no one thought they'd be until. 649 00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 5: I mean, they got B plus. 650 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 1: So yeah, but I don't know Saint Louis should be 651 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 1: an A too, because nobody thought they were gonna be 652 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:17,640 Speaker 1: where they are either. I mean, you can't give everyone as, 653 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 1: but in today's world you might as well. 654 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 3: I agree. 655 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 4: I think you could make a case for the Marlins 656 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 4: maybe getting a C. I thought they'd be worse. They're 657 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 4: playing just as well as the Nationals right now. They're 658 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 4: pretty much neck and neck those two teams. They're game 659 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 4: part do you think the Nationals? 660 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 6: I think, based on what we see, it's less expectations 661 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 6: and more just how each team is playing. So that's 662 00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 6: why I don't disagree with too many of them. Like 663 00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 6: the teams that have the f's are f teams if 664 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 6: you take away expectation. I think a lot of this 665 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:52,440 Speaker 6: list is spot on. 666 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 4: But about the American League and A for the Tigers 667 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 4: and A minus for the Mariners, B plus for the 668 00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 4: A Guardians, Yankees and Royals get Bees, Red Sox, Astros, Twins, 669 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 4: White Sox, Blue Jays get c's C minus for the Rangers, 670 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:09,720 Speaker 4: Angels and Rays get DS. 671 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 3: The Orioles get an F. 672 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:13,320 Speaker 2: Okay, so I'm gonna go to my White Sox. How 673 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 2: do they get a C? 674 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 1: They're just as bad as we thought they'd be, right, 675 00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:18,320 Speaker 1: maybe a little bit better. 676 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 3: But fourteen and twenty nine, how do they get a SEA? 677 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying, isn't are the expectations to lose 678 00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 1: one hundred and ten games? 679 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 2: Again, that's kind of what the pace they're on. 680 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:31,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's so that's C like to me that it 681 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 1: should be lower. I mean Texas to me C minus, 682 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 1: I get it, there should be higher. To me, the 683 00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 1: Angels are about where they are. Baltimore definitely deserves an 684 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 1: F for what we've talked about. But I don't know. 685 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 1: I mean the Angels at Tampa Bay, I don't know. 686 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 1: I mean they're a little there's some of them that 687 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 1: are that are questionable, like. 688 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 2: Houston C. 689 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:54,000 Speaker 5: I don't know. 690 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:55,640 Speaker 3: The Rangers are twenty three and twenty one. 691 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 1: It's not quick, it's not horrible, and they're they're right 692 00:30:58,160 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 1: in the division race. 693 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a little harsh. I guess everyone thought they 694 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 2: were gonna run away with it, So I don't know. 695 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 6: I think I think, I think the expectations on some 696 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:13,120 Speaker 6: of these put them where they are right now, because 697 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 6: I mean, the White Sox should be in the D 698 00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 6: or F range just based on the fact that they're 699 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 6: not a good baseball team, but on expectations, they're definitely 700 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 6: a C, if not a B. I mean they've they've, 701 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 6: you know, soward past my expectations. To me, I think 702 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 6: the Yankees nine, Yes, that's I thought they were going. 703 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:35,960 Speaker 5: To lose two. 704 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 1: That's losing two out of every three games. That means 705 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 1: they lose a hundred again. That's that's what they're That 706 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:46,480 Speaker 1: should never be the expectation. See she means it should 707 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 1: never be your expectation that we're gonna lose a hundred 708 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 1: games again. That should not be I'm sorry. There should 709 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 1: be no team in Major League Baseball that goes into 710 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 1: a season says we're trying to lose a hundred games 711 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 1: this year. 712 00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 3: But they're grading what the roster looks like, and. 713 00:31:58,080 --> 00:31:59,960 Speaker 1: I know what they're grading from where it was last year. 714 00:31:59,960 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 1: I get it all, but still. 715 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 4: They're not grading the organization that. If you want to 716 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:05,960 Speaker 4: do that, we've got plenty of f's to hand out. 717 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 6: They are a worst team. They were built to be 718 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 6: a worst team this year. They got rid of Garrett Crochet, 719 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:16,520 Speaker 6: Eric Fetti, they want to get rid of Luis Robert. Like, 720 00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 6: there's no way you can say, eh, you know what, 721 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,800 Speaker 6: I think they just they want to they want to 722 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 6: win one hundred games, or they want to lose just 723 00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:28,440 Speaker 6: one hundred games. There's no way they would be happy 724 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:30,960 Speaker 6: with if they lose one hundred and ten based on 725 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 6: what they put into this team to win. I thought 726 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 6: the Yankees should be in the A category. They lost 727 00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:39,880 Speaker 6: their ace to start the year, and maybe people will say, 728 00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 6: well without Aaron Judge, Well, who cares they have Aaron Judge? 729 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:47,240 Speaker 6: To me, I think Aaron Judge puts them squarely in 730 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:49,280 Speaker 6: the A. If you want to, they're not as good 731 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 6: as a Tigers, so you give them an A minus. 732 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 5: Great. 733 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 4: Also, injury update, Ben Joyce done for the season, So 734 00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:00,000 Speaker 4: there's al E Gonzalez, super hard throwing reliever Ben Joyce 735 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 4: season ending shoulder surgery. 736 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 3: Today. The Angels announced that sucks. 737 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 4: I mean, obviously the Angels aren't doing anything this year, 738 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 4: but just fun to watch a dude who can pump 739 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:16,440 Speaker 4: one oh five plus that that also could lead to injury. 740 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 6: It's not just it's really hard to sustain that. The 741 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 6: one guy and he's kept his velocity is e Roaldist Chapman. 742 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 6: Go look at his physique and then tell me, you 743 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 6: know what, it's gonna be tough to stay healthy throwing 744 00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,520 Speaker 6: one hundred and five. And that's maybe a bad narrative 745 00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 6: by me because he worked really hard to get his 746 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 6: velocity up to where it was, and so crazy to 747 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 6: think a dude throwing ninety seven can jump his velocity 748 00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:47,440 Speaker 6: eight miles an hour his peak velocity eight miles an hour. 749 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:51,960 Speaker 4: I will say Ben Joyce is a pretty built dude. 750 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:54,480 Speaker 4: I mean, I don't think he stacks up against the 751 00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 4: raldist Chapman, but I mean if you look him up online, 752 00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,200 Speaker 4: they're basically the same or all this is lit did 753 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:01,480 Speaker 4: six four two thirty five. 754 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 3: Ben Joyce is listed six five two five. 755 00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 4: So it's not like you're looking at a guy, you 756 00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:09,439 Speaker 4: know who is six' one one eighty being, like, hey 757 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:12,520 Speaker 4: this guy shouldn't be pumping one oh five or he's 758 00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:15,839 Speaker 4: gonna get. Hurt we also just don't know how all 759 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 4: this stuff works too. 760 00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 3: WELL i mean he also just could have gotten, hurt 761 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:22,080 Speaker 3: have a shoulder. 762 00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:22,880 Speaker 2: Injury guys get. 763 00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:24,840 Speaker 3: Hurt guys throw eighty five at get shoulder. 764 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:29,040 Speaker 5: Injuries we need to figure it. 765 00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:32,400 Speaker 2: Out, yeah, shame but it's like what else can they? 766 00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 3: Do? 767 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:34,680 Speaker 1: Though Ben joyce's a. Reliever he doesn't pitch every, day, 768 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:36,960 Speaker 1: right they protected him as much as they. Could they were, 769 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 1: like he's not gonna throw back to back games and 770 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:41,600 Speaker 1: this and. THAT i mean maybe, again maybe we don't throw, 771 00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 1: enough just saying. 772 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:46,000 Speaker 8: So but the cons are being, reliever you get paid 773 00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:48,839 Speaker 8: the least of any other role in the. Field, like by, 774 00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:51,799 Speaker 8: far relief pitchers are the least paid guys on the whole, 775 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:55,880 Speaker 8: team on every. Team, Right you're if you have a 776 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:58,080 Speaker 8: really good, closer he might be like fifth on the 777 00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:00,920 Speaker 8: team and pay, maybe, right you might get a closer, 778 00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:03,879 Speaker 8: paid but nobody else is getting remotely as much money 779 00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:07,240 Speaker 8: as anybody. ELSE a great reliever contracts like three for twenty. 780 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:09,080 Speaker 8: Five if you get three year deals a, reliever you 781 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 8: are doing, it doing. It you're paid the. Least and 782 00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:18,160 Speaker 8: for the casual, fans the fans that just kind of 783 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:21,680 Speaker 8: don't watch as much baseball that maybe don't value relievers very. 784 00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:24,520 Speaker 8: Much you're either just doing your, job which is throwing, one, 785 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:26,479 Speaker 8: two three, innings or you're blowing, it so you're either, 786 00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:28,959 Speaker 8: whatever he's just doing what he's paid to, do or you. 787 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 8: Suck that sounds a lot like a kicker to. Me 788 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:35,920 Speaker 8: that's why relievers are just the kickers a baseball in my. 789 00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 8: OPINION i said that a lot of. It said, again 790 00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:40,839 Speaker 8: there's also no above and, Beyond like in the same 791 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:43,480 Speaker 8: way that you're either just doing your job or you're. 792 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:45,840 Speaker 8: Terrible it's kind of hard to get any recognition for 793 00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:48,239 Speaker 8: doing anything. Correct like you have to like not give 794 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:51,480 Speaker 8: up a run for four, months which is really hard to. 795 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:54,440 Speaker 8: Do and that's the only way anyone notices, you basically 796 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:56,239 Speaker 8: if you're not a. Closer, now closers are in their 797 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 8: own little, group and we've talked a lot about that about, 798 00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 8: that But i'm just talking most. Relievers seven of the 799 00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:05,120 Speaker 8: eight guys out there are in this. 800 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:11,440 Speaker 4: Bucket trevor may May da mas plaining really. Good this 801 00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:13,759 Speaker 4: is exactly the WAY i wanted this to. Go by the, 802 00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:15,719 Speaker 4: way check out his show On. Mondays it's really. Good 803 00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:17,600 Speaker 4: it's live and then we've got it afterwards. 804 00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:17,839 Speaker 3: Too. 805 00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,000 Speaker 4: KRATZ i see a puzzled, face AND i think it's 806 00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 4: the same face THAT i had WHILE i was watching the. 807 00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:26,680 Speaker 3: Clip it's a wait reliever or backup. 808 00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:31,839 Speaker 6: Catcher don't even don't even point at, me point at this. 809 00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:34,320 Speaker 6: Guy this guy was An All. Star this guy played 810 00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:39,359 Speaker 6: every single. Day catching is easily the least paid position in, 811 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 6: baseball even for the best, catchers for what they, do 812 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:48,360 Speaker 6: what they bring to the, field easily the lowest paid. 813 00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:51,719 Speaker 6: Relievers look at the rays if you were not the. 814 00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:55,240 Speaker 6: Closer the rays are just like we got more In TRIPLE. 815 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:57,479 Speaker 6: A we got more in TRIPLE. A we'll just get another. 816 00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:03,160 Speaker 6: One especially now everybody throws hard like relievers. ARE i 817 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 6: call relievers regional sports network, fans because every team knows they're, seventh, eighth, sixth, 818 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:14,600 Speaker 6: seventh eighth and nine are, sixth seventh and eighth reliever 819 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 6: inning relievers because they watch you every single, night and 820 00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,359 Speaker 6: those are the dudes that they're going to in big. 821 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:24,400 Speaker 5: Wins maybe nationally they don't know, you but. 822 00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 1: Listen catchers have gotten. Better, yeah but also the problem 823 00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:33,680 Speaker 1: with the catchers in the relievers. Too catchers are compared 824 00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:38,040 Speaker 1: to every other. Position but it's not fair because catchers 825 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:40,399 Speaker 1: don't get to play and put up the numbers because 826 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 1: you don't get to play one hundred and fifty, games 827 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,200 Speaker 1: one hundred and sixty. Games if you get to one, 828 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 1: thirty you've had unbelievable year as a. 829 00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:49,240 Speaker 2: Catcher one. Twenty if you get over one hundred games 830 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:51,520 Speaker 2: is a year as a, catcher you're doing a, lot. 831 00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:54,560 Speaker 2: Okay and so that was the argument for, years even 832 00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:55,319 Speaker 2: like we Had Brad. 833 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:57,600 Speaker 1: Buono we're talking about war like you starting playing, war 834 00:37:58,080 --> 00:37:59,359 Speaker 1: but you're not war against other. 835 00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:00,960 Speaker 2: Catchers you're against the rest of the. 836 00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:03,560 Speaker 1: League and that's not a fair comparison because you can't 837 00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:05,640 Speaker 1: get up to. It you just never can make up 838 00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:06,520 Speaker 1: because you don't get enough. 839 00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 4: Games that's why WHEN i go over a stat like 840 00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:11,600 Speaker 4: ops plus when we talk, CATCHERS i go. 841 00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:15,160 Speaker 1: In ops plus isn't against catchers, only that's my se 842 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:15,520 Speaker 1: against the. 843 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:16,640 Speaker 2: League it should be against other. 844 00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 4: Catchers if your ops plus is one hundred as a, 845 00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:24,440 Speaker 4: catcher which is league, average you are above average because 846 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,759 Speaker 4: catchers are not going to hit like. That, generally you 847 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:31,680 Speaker 4: should be compared in a different, realm right because you 848 00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 4: can't just grab a guy Like Raphael.
