Speaker 1: Welcome about the territory, ladies and gentlemen. What did I
Speaker 1: say yesterday about that home cooking, Well, they needed that
Speaker 1: home cooking, and they had the home cooking here tonight,
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen. And remember a little while back, Go
Speaker 1: back a couple of months, go back a few months
Speaker 1: where times were sad, things were just looking miserable. It
Speaker 1: was awful all over the place, no matter where you
Speaker 1: turned any anything with the Red Sox, it looked terrible.
Speaker 1: And one thing that was also terrible was playing at home.
Speaker 1: They couldn't win at home. And now the script. You know,
Speaker 1: you take a look at the past week obviously, you know,
Speaker 1: dropping quite a few games over the last week and
Speaker 1: coming home was exactly what they needed to get the
Speaker 1: spirits up again. You gotta love it, you gotta love it.
Speaker 1: The bats absolutely exploding here tonight, ladies and gentlemen, Red
Speaker 1: Sox win, big man. You know, when you just think
Speaker 1: about how the Bats have been over the last week,
Speaker 1: you were seeing just a lot of the same things
Speaker 1: from the first couple of months, right, getting guys on
Speaker 1: unable to execute well, completely different story here tonight, Red
Speaker 1: Sox win eleven to one, record improved to sixty seven
Speaker 1: and fifty eight. Mitch Bratt taking the mound for the
Speaker 1: d BACSI. This is a guy that was coming off
Speaker 1: a couple of good starts. Well, didn't look like it
Speaker 1: here tonight. Eleven runs, sixteen hits. Wilson Contres looked like
Speaker 1: he enjoyed his day off yesterday. That man looked absolutely
Speaker 1: fresh here tonight. Twenty fifth home run. That is a
Speaker 1: career high seventy three RBIs on the season. He's on
Speaker 1: pace to break a career high of eighty. Wilson con
Speaker 1: tres Man, I mean, what a pickup that's been. You know,
Speaker 1: I know we've been talking about them all year, but man,
Speaker 1: when you just see these numbers here and we're not
Speaker 1: even in September, I mean, this is easily one of
Speaker 1: the best pickups from the offseason. Setti bouncing back here tonight.
Speaker 1: I had a couple of rough games in Pittsburgh, but
Speaker 1: three doubles on the night for him. Mickey Gasper getting
Speaker 1: called back up, got his first home round here tonight.
Speaker 1: I mean even Mickey Gasper going deep here, taking the
Speaker 1: place of Masa who went on the il home run
Speaker 1: around the Pesky Poll. How about Adley Adley. Finally he
Speaker 1: hit a ball out of the infield that dropped for
Speaker 1: a hit, got his first EXECU base hit and RBI
Speaker 1: as a Boston Red Sox. He was in an over
Speaker 1: fourteen slump. He was one for seventeen overall since making
Speaker 1: his debut for the Red Sox. You gotta love it
Speaker 1: hitting the ball hard here tonight the first ab for him.
Speaker 1: Corbyn Carrol, he got charged with an error. But when
Speaker 1: I hit that, I'm like, oh, okay, there's a good,
Speaker 1: hard hit ball. I think we might have something here.
Speaker 1: We might have something here, and boy, oh boy, did
Speaker 1: we ever. Nick Sogarb with a couple of doubles in
Speaker 1: an RBI two night, Caleb Durban with a couple of hits,
Speaker 1: RBI stolen base, Willyard with a couple of RBIs. He's
Speaker 1: up to sixty seven on the ear. Don't you do
Speaker 1: the six seven? Don't you do it? Don't you do it?
Speaker 1: Even Eli White getting in on the action and speaking
Speaker 1: of speaking of we got a super chat here from Matt. Matt,
Speaker 1: thank you so much, my friend, twenty dollars super chat.
Speaker 1: You're awesome, you said here big win need more of
Speaker 1: it and really good to see the offense rake tonight.
Speaker 1: Also love that Durant didn't play well. Eli White got
Speaker 1: the opportunity here tonight. And listen, you know, I wonder,
Speaker 1: you know, eventually Roman is going to be back, what
Speaker 1: is this going to look like? I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: Duran obviously he's hitting around two hundred, ops around six hundred. Sure,
Speaker 1: he's been hitting for some pop, stealing bases, playing good
Speaker 1: defense in left field, but he is at a zero
Speaker 1: point zero fangraft wins above replacement. He is as replaceable
Speaker 1: as they come when you're looking at just the overall games.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I think you're you could very well see
Speaker 1: a little bit more of Eli White here and obviously
Speaker 1: Roman of course when he comes back, right, he'll be
Speaker 1: in the lineup full time. You just wonder where is
Speaker 1: Duran gonna fit in down the stretch. It's gonna be
Speaker 1: really interesting to see. And hey, you know, might say
Speaker 1: something that you had a huge night here offensively and
Speaker 1: no Duran in the lineup. Now I'm obviously not saying
Speaker 1: that's because Duran's not in the lineup, but you know,
Speaker 1: you do kind of look at how well they did
Speaker 1: here tonight. How about bullpen Bao? I was about to
Speaker 1: say Brian Bao. No, We're gonna say Bullpen Bao, because
Speaker 1: Bullpen Bao is an absolute freak. He's a monster. The
Speaker 1: guy's an alien. Bullpen Bao is absolutely amazing. Another great
Speaker 1: outing out of the bullpen for Brian Bayo here tonight. Now,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say it Will is the best we've seen
Speaker 1: him out of the bullpen. We'll go over the little
Speaker 1: things here with Bo, but the guy just continues to
Speaker 1: get it done. He is an Elra under a one
Speaker 1: as a reliever this year. I mean, shoot, is Brian
Speaker 1: Bao gonna be in the conversation for Reliever of the Year.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying he's gonna win it, but could this
Speaker 1: guy be at least brought up. I mean, the guy's
Speaker 1: been phenomenal out of the bullpen. I mean it's it's
Speaker 1: ridiculous what he's doing. Crazy. Oh, I left out the
Speaker 1: best part. I left out the best part here. Obviously,
Speaker 1: BeO was good here today, But we finally got a
Speaker 1: scoreless inning from an opener. I can't believe it. I
Speaker 1: kind of want to give Player of the Game to
Speaker 1: Alec Gamboa here tonight. I'm really thinking about it. I'm
Speaker 1: really thinking about it. Alec gamboa gotta love that. Oh
Speaker 1: my goodness. When I saw that, I'm like, it's beautiful.
Speaker 1: It's like it's like the heavens opened up. We got
Speaker 1: we got scoreless, scoreless, and not even just a scoreless
Speaker 1: setting a one two three, beautiful. Gamboah, you beautiful men. Finally,
Speaker 1: the openers have been terrible for the Red Sox this year.
Speaker 1: Good to finally see that. Just a good win overall
Speaker 1: here tonight.
Speaker 2: I mean, this went as as good as you could get,
Speaker 2: as good as you can get with an opener, especially,
Speaker 2: you know, great night.
Speaker 1: Trevor Story got a little bit of news on him. Obviously,
Speaker 1: he's underway with his rehab assignment in Wooster Jack. Tracy
Speaker 1: did talk about here today if he could come back
Speaker 1: this coming Friday after the off day. Now you go
Speaker 1: back to a couple of years ago, or when he
Speaker 1: had a long rehab was a couple years ago, three
Speaker 1: years ago when he had another long stay on the
Speaker 1: i L. He made a rehab assignment for like a week,
Speaker 1: not even, and then he came back. So Tracey did
Speaker 1: touch on that here today that they said they're basically
Speaker 1: going day by day at this point but won't rule
Speaker 1: it out. The goal for him is to play shortstop again.
Speaker 1: So you know that's not anything crazy at all. You know,
Speaker 1: we've all been kind of expecting that. But it's gonna
Speaker 1: be interesting when story does come back. Where does Monasterio go?
Speaker 1: Does he slide over to second base? Do you keep
Speaker 1: so guard at second base? I mean, does he go
Speaker 1: to DH? I mean that's kind of where I wonder
Speaker 1: Monasteria will be better at DH right now because the
Speaker 1: defense has just not been good. He's got negative twelve
Speaker 1: outs above average. Now, maybe second base would be a
Speaker 1: little better, but you kind of just wonder. I mean, man,
Speaker 1: let the guy just focus on the bat a little bit,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm sure they'll they'll do some kind of
Speaker 1: a rotation of sorts. But then when Roman comes back,
Speaker 1: he'll be out and left obviously, and then you know,
Speaker 1: obviously getting back to Duran. How does that work? You know?
Speaker 1: Does Duran stay in left? Is Roman DH? So it's
Speaker 1: I talked about it yesterday. It's gonna be interesting to
Speaker 1: see how this all works out. I mean, it's anyone's
Speaker 1: guests at this point, but you got to keep Mona's
Speaker 1: bat in this lineup. We'll see, we'll see how it goes.
Speaker 1: But ladies and gentlemen, we're gonna get this show on
Speaker 1: the road here. We're gonna talk about all the offense
Speaker 1: here tonight. We're gonna talk about mister Alec Gambo and
Speaker 1: Brian Bayle will go over it. We'll go over Game
Speaker 1: two for tomorrow. Also another little interesting little event here
Speaker 1: tonight that wasn't even anything to do with the game.
Speaker 1: That had nothing to do with the game. Katel Marte.
Speaker 1: We've just talked about him yesterday during the preview. I
Speaker 1: was saying, all right, finally we're gonna see katl Marte
Speaker 1: at Femway Park. We're all wondering if he was gonna
Speaker 1: be a guy that the Red Sox brought in this
Speaker 1: past offseason. Right. He didn't even show up to Famway
Speaker 1: Park here today. The reports are he is he is healthy,
Speaker 1: and he is fine, but he chose not to go
Speaker 1: to Famway Park today. I'm not sure what's going on there.
Speaker 1: He's had a couple of things, a couple there's been
Speaker 1: a couple of reports with like clubhouse stuff with him
Speaker 1: going back, you know to even last year. So who
Speaker 1: knows what this is. It's getting interesting there I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know if I can tell Marte, we'll see
Speaker 1: if he's I mean, he was put on the restricted list,
Speaker 1: so I'm guessing we're not gonna see him this series.
Speaker 1: I don't know. If not, then that's gonna be even
Speaker 1: better for the Red Sox this series, man, because I
Speaker 1: was just saying yesterday, dambacks have been looking better lately,
Speaker 1: so hey, if it helps out the Red Sox, all right, yeah,
Speaker 1: Marte in the chat Green Moster nineteen, thank you. Martin
Speaker 1: did not travel with the team, did not travel. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, I hope the guys, all right, you know,
Speaker 1: we all we all hope to have everyone healthy enough,
Speaker 1: just physically but mentally. Hopefully he's he's doing all right.
Speaker 1: So I don't know. I'm sure we'll see something in
Speaker 1: the next week. I don't know, will we We'll see.
Speaker 1: Let's get to it, ladies and gentlemen, let's get to it.
Speaker 1: Alec Gamboa, as you can see on the screen here,
Speaker 1: he is the starter for tonight. Well he was the
Speaker 1: opener of course, but you know what, I am happy
Speaker 1: that he is on the screen here because, like I said,
Speaker 1: you finally got a scoreless inning from an opener one
Speaker 1: of the third innings for Gamboa obviously not a lot,
Speaker 1: but a one two three first inning, three ground out,
Speaker 1: so that he struck out Perdomo on a sinker up
Speaker 1: to start off the second inning. And that was all
Speaker 1: you needed from Gambola here today. But that was perfect, perfect,
Speaker 1: Love to see that, love to see that. Brian Baio,
Speaker 1: Brian Bao using four pitches here tonight, you saw a
Speaker 1: little bit more variety. The VLA was up with Bayo
Speaker 1: here tonight, up about a mile per hour on average.
Speaker 1: He's getting a little bit more spin on the breaking
Speaker 1: stuff as well. Lots of sinkers early on. Now I
Speaker 1: will say he was giving up a bit of hard
Speaker 1: contact on the sinkers upper ninety average exit vel. Still
Speaker 1: he was getting a lot of ground balls, but still
Speaker 1: was giving up some hard contact. Made it work though,
Speaker 1: and then the second time through he started leaning more
Speaker 1: towards the four seamer, but while still being consistent with
Speaker 1: the breaking and off speed. Overall it worked very well
Speaker 1: here tonight. A couple of bait now when he came in,
Speaker 1: he gave up a couple of base hits in the
Speaker 1: second inning from Tim Twa and Jose Fernandez, but after
Speaker 1: that he sat down the ten Backs. The guy was
Speaker 1: just cruising. Third inning, he struck out Walschmidt looking on
Speaker 1: a sinker up. Get a one two three. Fourth inning,
Speaker 1: Lawler striking him out, cut her bottom of the zone,
Speaker 1: get a one two three fifth inning. Six inning, he
Speaker 1: started to lose a little bit of command. You can
Speaker 1: see maybe losing a little bit of feel. Walschmidt hit
Speaker 1: by pitch, he walked Carrol moreno of the base hit
Speaker 1: to load the bases. And then at this point you're
Speaker 1: up seven nothing. So he got a comfy lead, but
Speaker 1: you know, hey, one swing of the bat, who knows,
Speaker 1: you know, but Perdomo not able to come up with
Speaker 1: much a sack fly made it seven to one, and
Speaker 1: then he strikes out Lawler swinging on a cutter away.
Speaker 1: So what I liked about this, even though yeah, he
Speaker 1: ran into some trouble here, I love that he just
Speaker 1: nailed it down right. He buckled down and he got
Speaker 1: the job done. Obviously got himself. Yeah you gotta yeah,
Speaker 1: you gotta lead right, but still you don't want to
Speaker 1: be blowing just a nice comfortable lead at this point.
Speaker 1: So good for Bao to really set up down there
Speaker 1: and get the job done at the sixth inning and
Speaker 1: for the bullpen the rest of the way, Greg Weisert
Speaker 1: Moran taking care of the next couple of innings, and
Speaker 1: white Olds making his major league debut close it out
Speaker 1: here today for the Red Sox, struck out two a
Speaker 1: one two three inning. I was just talking about Whyite
Speaker 1: Olds in yesterday's show. I mentioned a few different relievers
Speaker 1: and I mentioned white Olds, and I'm thinking, well, you know,
Speaker 1: e al Ra, the FIP doesn't look amazing down to
Speaker 1: the minor leagues. But a guy that was getting a
Speaker 1: lot of strikeouts, a lot of swing and miss, so
Speaker 1: I figured he could at least get a look and
Speaker 1: uh low and behold here he was here today closing
Speaker 1: out the game for the Red Sox, a nice ten
Speaker 1: run save. You gotta love it. Let's talk about the offense.
Speaker 1: Mix Bratt on the mound for the d Bags, and
Speaker 1: he's been very good of late. However, tonight not great command.
Speaker 1: He walked three in the early going, and he didn't
Speaker 1: really make any adjustments all the way through. He was
Speaker 1: sticking really with the four seamer, the slurve and the
Speaker 1: change up, and the Red Sox just picked up on
Speaker 1: him pretty easily. First and the second innings, now the
Speaker 1: Red Sox getting you know, getting back to the command,
Speaker 1: showing some good patience against him, William and Wilson getting
Speaker 1: some walks. Weren't able to come through with anything. But
Speaker 1: then in the second inning Durbin with a walk, and
Speaker 1: then you end up breaking through here Durbin he steals
Speaker 1: second base, and uh here comes Eli White.
Speaker 3: One two to Eli line, driving a base in at
Speaker 3: the left. That'll chase in a run. Well, Timid will
Speaker 3: cut it and holding it first with an RBI single.
Speaker 3: Eli White.
Speaker 1: Gotta love it taking advantage of a start here today.
Speaker 1: Gotta love that second RBI as a Red Sox. Also
Speaker 1: just got a notification that show hey, mister Sho hae
Speaker 1: O Tani, I don't know if you know him or not,
Speaker 1: just had a home run over four hundred fifty feet.
Speaker 1: I think that was in Coorse Well. Sound sounds about right.
Speaker 1: Sounds about right. Also, Kobe Mayo here today. The Orioles
Speaker 1: could not close out the sweep against the Rays, unfortunately,
Speaker 1: but Kobe Mayo hit one today like four hundred sixty
Speaker 1: feet in Tropicana. That's pretty impressive. I mean, you don't
Speaker 1: even have like you're you're inside with the ac the
Speaker 1: fact that that guy hit one four hundred sixty feet
Speaker 1: and you got the catwalk and everything too, that's pretty impressive,
Speaker 1: if you ask me. But you know what's more impressive,
Speaker 1: Nick Soguard coming up next, Samuel ad. No, you know
Speaker 1: what's not impressive MLB dot com playing ads when we're
Speaker 1: trying to listen to Nick's so Guard over here. But
Speaker 1: so Guard had himself a good game, like I said,
Speaker 1: but here he comes.
Speaker 3: So Guard over one. I was swinging a high ride
Speaker 3: back towards the wall that is way way up there,
Speaker 3: off the monster. Here comes White because he can fly.
Speaker 3: You will score.
Speaker 1: Easily again that like that deceptive speed of White. He
Speaker 1: just moves, man, he moves, and you kept things going
Speaker 1: here in the third inning, Wilson with a double, and
Speaker 1: then here comes Caleb Durban.
Speaker 3: Well Red Sox bit him for a couple of runs.
Speaker 3: Last inning, Durban goes the other way, base it into rights.
Speaker 3: Cantreras touching thirty will score easily to make it three
Speaker 3: to nothing.
Speaker 1: You kept it going after that, ladies and gentlemen, It's
Speaker 1: not gonna stop here. It's not gonna stop so guard
Speaker 1: with another double, seventh of the year, and here comes Seti.
Speaker 1: Of course, all right, we're gonna we're gonna fast forward this.
Speaker 1: The ads, of course are gonna kill us. Here tonight
Speaker 1: Bissetti with an RBI double to make it four nothing,
Speaker 1: his thirtieth double on the year. Gotta love it man again.
Speaker 1: You know, Pittsburgh had a couple of games, and you've
Speaker 1: seen the frustration a little bit from SETI had some
Speaker 1: moments of frustration in Pittsburgh, right and slamming stuff down
Speaker 1: on the ground. Good to see him have a good
Speaker 1: night here tonight again, thirtieth double there on the year.
Speaker 1: That made it four to nothing. And then again you
Speaker 1: keep things going. In the fifth inning, here comes Wilson, Contreres.
Speaker 3: Swinging a high rye by Wilson back to the wall
Speaker 3: and that ball gets out of here on Rodins his
Speaker 3: twenty fifth and that's a new career high to make
Speaker 3: it five nothing.
Speaker 1: It took a little it took a little bit of
Speaker 1: an awkward bounce off the ledge on the monster, but
Speaker 1: he knew it was gone right away. Twenty fifth home
Speaker 1: run of the year for Wilson. Contrari's a career high,
Speaker 1: and uh again What a pickup he's been. What a pickup,
Speaker 1: the fact that you know, you saw what he did
Speaker 1: with the Cardinals last year, being able to pull the
Speaker 1: ball a little bit more, and then coming over to Boston,
Speaker 1: you know, working. I know everyone's had their thoughts, their
Speaker 1: opinions on the whole drive line, you know, situation, but
Speaker 1: I've talked about it before where I don't think it's
Speaker 1: necessarily a bad thing when used correctly, And for Wilson,
Speaker 1: he is absolutely bought in right to increasing the bat
Speaker 1: speed a little bit more, making harder contact, sticking with
Speaker 1: the poll and look at the results that he's gotten
Speaker 1: this year. Incredible. After that Rushman he got on again,
Speaker 1: hard hit ball out to Corbyn Carroll one hundred two
Speaker 1: miles an hour, but it kind of was doing some
Speaker 1: having some weird spin out there, and then Corbyn Carroll,
Speaker 1: who's as efficient as they come in the outfield, ends
Speaker 1: up bouncing off his glove. He gets charged with an error.
Speaker 1: Caleb Durban comes up with a base hit and an
Speaker 1: Angel Monasterio with a sack fly made it six to nothing.
Speaker 1: After that, Mickey Gasper with the ground out made it
Speaker 1: seven to nothing. And like I said, you know, Bao
Speaker 1: got out of the basis loading jam there, and at
Speaker 1: that point you're feeling comfy. In the sixth inning set,
Speaker 1: he with his thirty first double, and here comes Willier.
Speaker 1: All right, the ads are gonna kill us here tonight.
Speaker 1: All right, every time we do these it always works.
Speaker 1: And when we have a fun night, they won't let
Speaker 1: us play the play the clips without ads. William with
Speaker 1: the base hit, made it eight to one. Adley stepping
Speaker 1: up here for the Red Sox, finally getting himself an
Speaker 1: extra base hit.
Speaker 3: Bad, he's zero for two. He hit the fly ball
Speaker 3: lasting it was dropped by Corbyn Carroll and right field
Speaker 3: for error eight one.
Speaker 1: Boston, here's a little looping line drive.
Speaker 3: Ball down the left field.
Speaker 1: Line all the way to the corner.
Speaker 4: They're gonna send the runner home and he's gonna score
Speaker 4: standing up.
Speaker 3: Will you're a breaker wind without a throat of the plate.
Speaker 1: Right, Well, that wasn't Dave O'Brien, that was the d
Speaker 1: Backs broadcasters over there. But Rutchman finally coming through with
Speaker 1: an extra base hit, finally, a base hit leaving the infield.
Speaker 1: Gotta love that. That was a double, made it nine
Speaker 1: to one, and Mickey gasper his having a nice moment here.
Speaker 1: It's not gonna let us play without the ad. Mickey
Speaker 1: Gasper home run Matt made it ten to one, first
Speaker 1: of the year. I'll be honest, I thought he had
Speaker 1: a home run. I was wrong. I guess he did
Speaker 1: not have a home run. But you know, you think
Speaker 1: back to Mickey Gasper, right, this was a guy who
Speaker 1: remember when he saw the Red Sox couple of years ago.
Speaker 1: The guy couldn't get a hit to save his life.
Speaker 1: And obviously he came up a little while ago this year,
Speaker 1: he was looking really good and then he cooled off,
Speaker 1: got sent back down. So also Gasper was breaking down
Speaker 1: at triple A over the last couple of weeks. I
Speaker 1: don't know if anyone realized that the guy was just
Speaker 1: off the charts. So glad to see that he's kept
Speaker 1: that going. Here. First home run right around the Pesky
Speaker 1: pole made a ten to one Red Sox at that point.
Speaker 1: Seti with his thirty second double, third double of the night.
Speaker 1: William with the base hit to make it eleven to one,
Speaker 1: and that was all the offense for the Red Sox tonight.
Speaker 1: I know that took a little bit to get through.
Speaker 1: It's a lot of runs to talk about here tonight,
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen. A lot of runs, but you still
Speaker 1: have two more games left in this series. Nice win
Speaker 1: here tonight, obviously a big win here tonight. Lots of
Speaker 1: bats here tonight, exploding with the offense. Brian Bayle looking great,
Speaker 1: Gamboa looking like a cy young winner if you ask
Speaker 1: me in the first inning. But you still got to
Speaker 1: go win this series here tomorrow, ladies and gentlemen. And
Speaker 1: we'll talk about that, but first award from our sponsor.
Speaker 1: I'll be right back.

Speaker 1: Alrighty, let's talk about game two, shall we? Really quick?
Speaker 1: Actually we have a super chat from Steve. What's going on? Steve?
Speaker 1: How you doing White over Duran? Steve is he is
Speaker 1: onto something here? I think Steve is as happy as
Speaker 1: a clam over here that Eli White had himself a
Speaker 1: good night. But hey again, let's see what they do here.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Again, I'll say it one more time.
Speaker 1: Very curious to see how they utilize Duran over the
Speaker 1: next six weeks or so. And then you're saying, here,
Speaker 1: Gasper looking good as well again. Get it back to
Speaker 1: what he was doing at Wooster Since August fifth, over
Speaker 1: eight games, twenty eight abs, thirty four played appearances. He
Speaker 1: had twelve hits, had a homer, had six doubles. The
Speaker 1: dude was hitting four to twenty nine over those eight games. Incredible, insane.
Speaker 1: I mean so yeah, I mean, like, yeah, it's stunk
Speaker 1: losing Masa. But at least you get Gasper back who
Speaker 1: is obviously on a hot stretch, and hey, you see
Speaker 1: it here tonight. You gotta love that man. And That's
Speaker 1: what I've loved about this Red Sox team this year
Speaker 1: is so many guys just stepping up at different points. Right,
Speaker 1: Masa goes down, all right, Gasper steps up here tonight.
Speaker 1: You know, Eli White steps up here tonight. Duran not
Speaker 1: having a good stretch, not having a good season, but
Speaker 1: Eli White able to come through here. I've loved that
Speaker 1: about this team. Loved it. But let's talk about Game two.
Speaker 1: We got a couple of veterans on the mound here tomorrow,
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen. We got Rangers Suarez on the bump
Speaker 1: going up against Merrill Kelly. A pretty decent veteran matchup
Speaker 1: if you ask me. Unfortunately for Merril Kelly, well fortunately
Speaker 1: for us, uh, he has not had a good season.
Speaker 1: The guy's numbers are are not looking very good here.
Speaker 1: He has an Elray over a five. He's got an
Speaker 1: ERA at a five point one point one, fIF at
Speaker 1: a five point seven to one, he has a negative
Speaker 1: zero point six f four. I'm not sure what has
Speaker 1: happened here with Merril Kelly. He had a good season
Speaker 1: last year with the d Backs and the Rangers. He
Speaker 1: had a three point five to two el Ray, three
Speaker 1: point seven six fib solid numbers. But this year the
Speaker 1: strikeouts are way down, the walks are up, he's giving
Speaker 1: up more home runs. So let's take a look, shall we.
Speaker 1: So looking at stackcast here, obviously you're seeing a lot
Speaker 1: of blues, right, But if we were to go back
Speaker 1: to last year, I mean, you know, obviously he's starting
Speaker 1: to get up there in age a little bit, and
Speaker 1: there were blues last year as well, so you know,
Speaker 1: actually on the expected number side. So it's not surprising
Speaker 1: to see that he's regressed even further. But what I
Speaker 1: find like confusing is the walk rate has just completely collapsed.
Speaker 1: He had a six percent walk rate last year and
Speaker 1: this year it's up to a round ten. So I'm
Speaker 1: not sure what's going on here with him. For Seemer
Speaker 1: is getting hammered Cutter is getting hammered. See, I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm guessing he's had a bit of a dip in
Speaker 1: v LO. I mean, let's see, he's averaging ninety two
Speaker 1: miles an hour this year. I mean, no, it's right
Speaker 1: around the same so velo wise, So obviously it's just
Speaker 1: a command thing with him. I don't know if he
Speaker 1: was dealing with an injury at some point, I'd have
Speaker 1: to go double check on that. But yeah, for seamer
Speaker 1: cutter getting pounded, he's given up eleven home runs off
Speaker 1: the for seamer six on the cutter, he's got his
Speaker 1: change up also getting hit hard for sixty four the
Speaker 1: expected slugging, he's given up four home runs off of it.
Speaker 1: I mean, even the sinker. The sinker for him, he's
Speaker 1: always been more of a ground ball kind of a guy. Well,
Speaker 1: sinker last year wasn't very good, but it has been
Speaker 1: very good in the past. But he's been giving up
Speaker 1: some hard hits on that as well. See, I don't know,
Speaker 1: Merril Kelly, he just has not had it that. The
Speaker 1: guy's just give it up meat balls left and right.
Speaker 1: But this is a good chance for Ranger Suarez here
Speaker 1: to you know, finally get himself that good start that
Speaker 1: he's been searching for since coming off the IL. Did
Speaker 1: look a little bit better last time against the Blue Jays,
Speaker 1: was able to go five only give it one run,
Speaker 1: six hits, one walk, two k's and not an amazing
Speaker 1: outing by any means against a Blue Jays team that
Speaker 1: obviously took it to the Red Sox in that series,
Speaker 1: but a team also that makes a lot of contact.
Speaker 1: But what I liked about Ranger in that start was,
Speaker 1: you know, he wasn't trying to get the swing and
Speaker 1: miss like I said for Peyton, totally right. You don't
Speaker 1: chase the strikeouts with the Blue Jays, get that weak contact,
Speaker 1: throw strikes, and Ranger, you know, worked into that a
Speaker 1: little bit. So could we see Ranger look for a
Speaker 1: bit more swing and miss here tomorrow. Like I've said
Speaker 1: a million times, with Ranger, it's a feel thing with him.
Speaker 1: You know, comes off the IL, missed a couple of weeks,
Speaker 1: It's gonna take him a little bit to get his
Speaker 1: groove back. He's a feel guy, right. Obviously he's not
Speaker 1: gonna pump Vlo by you. But when he's got all
Speaker 1: of his stuff working, when the spin's looking good on
Speaker 1: the breaking stuff, the change ups looking good. Cutter's got
Speaker 1: the just you know, gets that weak contact right, the sinkers,
Speaker 1: good location. Yeah, Ranger is as good as they come.
Speaker 1: So still searching for that. Let's see if he gets that.
Speaker 1: Tomorrow against the Dbacks. Would be nice to get a
Speaker 1: series win. You have not won a series and three now,
Speaker 1: that'd be very nice to get a series win here
Speaker 1: tomorrow and then obviously got the off day Thursday, would
Speaker 1: be amazing to get a sweep. Obviously it's amazing to
Speaker 1: get us anytime to get a sweep, but going into
Speaker 1: the off day, that'd be phenomenal. Ah, what do we got?
Speaker 1: Derek in the chat has been a member for one month. Derek,
Speaker 1: thank you, my friend. Appreciate that. Also shout out to
Speaker 1: all the members. We have over fifty members on the channel. Now,
Speaker 1: that's awesome. So do you want to say thank you
Speaker 1: for that? Derek, thank you for becoming a member. You
Speaker 1: said here, get to see Roman and Portland tomorrow. Oh man, Oh,
Speaker 1: Justin Gonzalez too. Did Justin and Zalaz play here today?
Speaker 1: Or no, they didn't play today? Did they they have
Speaker 1: Mondays off? I would imagine why do they get Justin
Speaker 1: goan Zalaz in that lineup tomorrow. Wait, do we talk
Speaker 1: about Justin Gonzalez. I don't think we did. Oh no,
Speaker 1: we didn't, because that happened last night. Justin Gonzalez getting
Speaker 1: the call to double A. The dude's just been mashing
Speaker 1: at Hi A. Greenville guy's been great and uh what
Speaker 1: he's really worked on this past season getting the ball
Speaker 1: into the air a little bit more. I still think
Speaker 1: there is a little bit more room for that. But
Speaker 1: the guy's hitting the crap out of the ball. The
Speaker 1: guy's red hot as of late two. Not surprised to
Speaker 1: see him get that call up. That will be awesome
Speaker 1: if he's in the lineup tomorrow against Reading Roman adjustin
Speaker 1: go Zalz sounds pretty fun if you ask me. I mean,
Speaker 1: could that Could that eventually be a preview of things
Speaker 1: to come a couple of years maybe, who knows, maybe
Speaker 1: even next year, Roman adjusting Gonzalez back to back in
Speaker 1: the lineup. I need it, I need it. That would
Speaker 1: be pretty fun if you ask me. But everybody, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna wrap it up right there. That is all we
Speaker 1: got for tonight. Fun win here tonight obviously. Uh yeah,
Speaker 1: lots of offense, good pitching can't really go wrong, right, Also,
Speaker 1: the Jimmy Fund did very well here tonight. They raised
Speaker 1: a lot of money. Love the just I love that
Speaker 1: every single year, right, the Great Foundation. Awesome, awesome, awesome
Speaker 1: what they do over there. And it looks like they
Speaker 1: had a very good night here today. So so all
Speaker 1: the people out there, you know that are working with
Speaker 1: the Jimmy Fund, you know, to make it happen, thank
Speaker 1: you very much for that. That is just awesome, awesome
Speaker 1: to see, awesome to see. Really quick before I get
Speaker 1: out of here, we got some members. Jacob in the
Speaker 1: chat says, yes, hit the like button please, that would
Speaker 1: be very nice, very nice, buttered sausage for Sonny could
Speaker 1: be twenty and five with a two point five zero
Speaker 1: era by the end. Incredible year, form, amazing year, amazing year.
Speaker 1: I just talked about this the other night, the fact
Speaker 1: that he just set a career high in wins in
Speaker 1: his fourteenth season in the majors. Like huge respect. Right.
Speaker 1: You see guys at this point in their career like
Speaker 1: Merril Kelly, who's getting absolutely hammered this year right around
Speaker 1: the same age. The guy's getting hammered. While Sonny Gray
Speaker 1: could have could maybe get to twenty wins that why
Speaker 1: not if he finishes out the rest of the way
Speaker 1: as good as he's looked, why couldn't he get to twenty?
Speaker 1: That's incredible. Like Sonny Gray, the fact that he's having
Speaker 1: one of the best seasons of his career at this
Speaker 1: point in his career, that's awesome. And coming over to
Speaker 1: another organization with the Red Sox, it's been a great fit.
Speaker 1: You talk about Wilson Contreras, right, Sonny Gray, I mean amazing.
Speaker 1: You know, we've talked about the trades with Craig Breslo, right,
Speaker 1: the ones that he's made in the offseason have done
Speaker 1: so well, you know, man oh Man. Also thank you
Speaker 1: to Heim Bloom for making that happen as well. What
Speaker 1: have we got here in the chat? Don't do it?
Speaker 1: How does he compare to Perkins and Jump? I'm not
Speaker 1: sure who you mean exactly. I'm not sure who you
Speaker 1: mean don't do? In the chat, Duran could not go
Speaker 1: a game without a strikeout. Sorry, not sorry. You just
Speaker 1: felt like the order was just they were just clicking
Speaker 1: here tonight. Obviously with all the hits they got, but
Speaker 1: you just never felt like a rally just died Unfortunately
Speaker 1: with Duran, you've seen a lot of Rallies just kind
Speaker 1: of die. You know. When he's on, the guy is incredible.
Speaker 1: When he has it together, the guy is off the charts.
Speaker 1: But yeah, lately not so much. Don't do it in
Speaker 1: the chat. Ranger is great in person sense of humor.
Speaker 1: I saw a little moment with Ranger here tonight. They
Speaker 1: cut the camera away very quickly, but he had his
Speaker 1: hat out and someone like tossed him a ball, and
Speaker 1: like he caught the ball in his hat and he
Speaker 1: just like had like a smile on his face. Like
Speaker 1: why just like the guy goes says, he's so goofy.
Speaker 1: I mean that in a good way, Like he just
Speaker 1: looks like he's just always having a good time eating sandwiches,
Speaker 1: catching balls in his hat. Gotta love it. Mead is
Speaker 1: on the way too. Yeah, I haven't seen anything on Mead,
Speaker 1: but yeah, the X people were saying six to eight weeks,
Speaker 1: could you maybe see him by the end of September.
Speaker 1: That'd be awesome if you're able to get him back
Speaker 1: to have him on the postseason roster. Well, actually, how
Speaker 1: does that work? Well, yeah, I imagine because he was
Speaker 1: with the Red Side, I don't know how would that
Speaker 1: work for the postseason. I'm not exactly sure, but I
Speaker 1: don't know either way, it'd be great to get him
Speaker 1: back at some point. Everybody, I'm out of here. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna wrap it up right there. I'm gonna wrap it
Speaker 1: up right there. If you kind of the way out,
