1 00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:02,040 Speaker 1: All right, the sympathy. 2 00:00:02,200 --> 00:00:04,880 Speaker 2: It is Monday, August twenty fifth, and the Yankees were 3 00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:07,760 Speaker 2: taking on the Nationals in game one of a three 4 00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:10,920 Speaker 2: game set. Cam Schlitzler was on the mound trying to 5 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:13,720 Speaker 2: back up a really good performance in his previous outing. 6 00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:17,560 Speaker 2: My recap, your reactions coming up next. This is Pinstripe 7 00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:26,960 Speaker 2: Territory under Cook. That's a how's it going, everybody? I 8 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,159 Speaker 2: thought for a second there that the Yankees were going 9 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:31,200 Speaker 2: to find a way to blow that ten to one 10 00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:34,599 Speaker 2: lead in the ninth inning, And if that had happened, 11 00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:37,839 Speaker 2: I'm telling you, guys, I don't even know what I 12 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:39,480 Speaker 2: would have done. I don't even know how I would 13 00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:41,600 Speaker 2: have reacted to that. But thankfully we don't have to 14 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,400 Speaker 2: come up with a solution. Yankees two in a row, 15 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 2: and they've got to make some hay over the next 16 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 2: seven games because they right now are in a position 17 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 2: to make the playoffs. Not looking great for the division, 18 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 2: but if you want to even get yourself a chance, 19 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 2: you've basically got to go seven to zero. And they've 20 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,440 Speaker 2: started off one to oher on this stretch where they 21 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 2: play the Nationals for three and then the White Sox 22 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 2: for four, but even with this ten to five win, 23 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 2: I find it difficult to get like super hyped up 24 00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 2: about it, just given the way that Yankees have played 25 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 2: against good competition. We kind of expected them to beat 26 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:26,400 Speaker 2: up on the Nationals and the Blue Jays, sorry, the 27 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 2: Nationals and the White Sox. But when they play the 28 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:33,040 Speaker 2: Blue Jays and the you know, Red Sox, I mean, 29 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 2: they get stumped right. 30 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 3: Good night. 31 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 2: Though for the offense, to me, the story of the 32 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 2: night was Cam Schlitzler, who is taking huge strides every 33 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 2: time out. He was fantastic six shutout innings tonight. He 34 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 2: clearly has to be a part of the rotation next year. 35 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 2: It'll be interesting to see how it works out if 36 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 2: everyone's healthy, Like if Garrett Cole's back to begin the 37 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 2: season right and he had the race procedure, which can 38 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 2: get you back a little bit quicker. Max Freed obviously 39 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 2: having a hell of a year, you know, Carlos Rodin 40 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 2: having a good year, and then you got Warren Schlittler 41 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,080 Speaker 2: and Luis Heal for two spots. Now, we've seen so 42 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,399 Speaker 2: many guys get injured this year that it's I mean, 43 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 2: we've come to expect people will get injured at some point. 44 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:24,359 Speaker 2: But if everybody's healthy, I'd be very curious to see 45 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 2: how the Yankees line up their rotation next year, because 46 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 2: one of those guys would have to move to the 47 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 2: bullpen if I had, like, if I had to guess 48 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:35,920 Speaker 2: right now, I would say that Schlittler would probably go 49 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 2: to the to the bullpen, just because he's got that 50 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 2: one hundred and one mile an hour fastball, and tonight 51 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 2: we saw a hammer of a curveball. But we've also 52 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 2: seen that he's a really, really well equipped pitcher to 53 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,959 Speaker 2: get deep into the game because he can get out efficiently, right, 54 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 2: he can challenge guys with that fastball and get deep 55 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 2: into the game. 56 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 3: But nice win for the Yanks. Let's talk about it. Oh, 57 00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 3: let's get it going all. 58 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 2: Right, let's put on the victory hat back by popular demand, 59 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 2: But I still wore Oh no, the tape fell off 60 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:06,679 Speaker 2: of my statement hat. 61 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 3: Here we go, we'll fix it. 62 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 2: But I still catch this as a statement at my 63 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:18,919 Speaker 2: unsatisfactory review of the Yankees season so far. Yankees did 64 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 2: get on the board in the first inning, couple of 65 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 2: walks and then a sackfly by Cody Bellinger. I've reached 66 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 2: the point now where I'm genuinely surprised when the Yankees 67 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 2: score run and it's not because of a home run. 68 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 2: But don't worry, Yankees did break out the home run ball. 69 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 2: Ben Rice with home run number twenty one in the 70 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 2: bottom of the third inning four hundred and thirty five 71 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 2: feet absolutely clobberd longest home run for him this year. Also, 72 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 2: he threw out Josh Bell trying to steal second base 73 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 2: from his knees. Josh Bell not the fastest runner, but 74 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 2: nice job by Rice behind the plate. Yanks got to 75 00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 2: figure out a way to get him in the lineup 76 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 2: every single day, and next year they've got to carve 77 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 2: out a spot for him. I like that he's doing 78 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 2: some damage at catcher because I think he could become 79 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 2: a decent catcher. To me, he looks better as a 80 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,279 Speaker 2: catcher than he does as a first baseman. Looks more comfortable, 81 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 2: which is understandable he's played more time there. But also 82 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,600 Speaker 2: Austin Wells could be a decent backup. 83 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 3: He's got pop. 84 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 2: You know, he might run into some home runs off 85 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 2: the bench. You know he can play for stretches if 86 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 2: Rice has to miss some time or whatever. And you know, 87 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:35,160 Speaker 2: he's basically a a copy. You know, power left handed bat, 88 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 2: and he's inexpensive, so I think that could be a 89 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 2: decent combination going forward. That allows you to retain Bellinger 90 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 2: and play him at first base, or to move Judge 91 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,279 Speaker 2: to first base where he wouldn't have to throw, so 92 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 2: gives you more options. Also, Dimingez today was taking reps 93 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 2: at first base while Aaron Judge was working on right field, 94 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 2: so they talked about that on the radio broadcast. Definitely 95 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,719 Speaker 2: keep an eye on that. Although Dimingez he is, he's 96 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 2: not a big guy. He's like five to ten or 97 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 2: something like that, and typically you would want a bigger 98 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 2: target at first base. Anyway, Yankees got on the board 99 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 2: again in the fifth line drive base hit from Cabaliro, 100 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 2: who was the starting shortstop tonight. Volpi did not get 101 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 2: in the game, but he will be back in there tomorrow. 102 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 2: I love how hard he runs the bases, like he 103 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,160 Speaker 2: comes around bases and he's already thinking about the next 104 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,359 Speaker 2: ninety feet. You can tell that he is on a 105 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 2: mission to get the next ninety feet. I love that 106 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 2: you got a base it from Grisham, ground rule double 107 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 2: from Judge. Bellinger knocked in a couple of runs with 108 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:38,160 Speaker 2: a base it and then Jazz chisum with another home 109 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:43,159 Speaker 2: run number twenty five. You like jazz, You like jazz, 110 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 2: goodba smooth jazz. Indeed, I know a lot of people 111 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,719 Speaker 2: have problems with bat flips. I don't mind him as 112 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 2: long as you're winning. And this was a fun one 113 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 2: because it you know, it put the Yankees way out front. 114 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 2: It was a no doubter or second deck. I don't 115 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 2: want to see guys bat flipping when you're down five 116 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 2: runs or whatever. Dominga has made it ten to nothing 117 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 2: with a short porch three run home run. I don't 118 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 2: know if I have a sound for him. I think 119 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 2: I used to. 120 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:15,480 Speaker 3: I don't think. Well, let's see now. 121 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 2: He hasn't hit a home run so long that I 122 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 2: haven't uploaded his sounds, but that one was really clobbered. 123 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 2: He got it was more high than far though. He 124 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 2: is one of these guys that had not hit for 125 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 2: a ton of power, and I'm okay with it. He basically, well, 126 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 2: I'd like him to hit more than ten home runs, obviously, 127 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 2: but I like the way he uses the whole field 128 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 2: like I like that he'll take the open side, you know, 129 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 2: if they're giving him the entire left side as a lefty, 130 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 2: he'll shoot one for a base day, he'll take the 131 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 2: RBI single. 132 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 3: I like that. 133 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,279 Speaker 2: And tonight three run home run number ten on the season, 134 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 2: hitting two fifty six. Now with a seven nineteen ops, 135 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,359 Speaker 2: you'd like to see it improve a little bit. We 136 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 2: got to call about him. We'll talk more about Jason later. 137 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 2: And then, of course, the Nationals scored five runs in 138 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 2: the top of the ninth inning, de los Santo's walked 139 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 2: in a run, Mark Lyier served up a grand slam 140 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 2: with the Yankees hang on to win. Jace No says, 141 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 2: Jamaica's barely got his home out. 142 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 3: It was. He knew it was gone. He knew it 143 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 3: was gone. 144 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 4: It was. 145 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 2: It was definitely a Yankee Stadium home run. I mean, 146 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 2: don't get don't get me wrong, but he uh, it was. 147 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 2: It was one of those high arching, majestic shots. I 148 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 2: watched one of the field cams of it. But hey, 149 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 2: I got no problem. Long as it clears the fence, 150 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 2: I'm good with it. Belt tonight, we had a few 151 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 2: good candidates. Obviously, Bellinger had three RBIs, Jazz with a 152 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 2: two run home run, Demingez with a three run shot, 153 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 2: Rice with a home run, but ultimately Cam Schlitzler was 154 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 2: my guy. Hell of a performance, and that is two 155 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 2: belts on the season for Cam Schlitler. 156 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 3: And this is just. 157 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 2: A big, big dude with a big time fastball. And 158 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 2: as his breaking ball gets better, he's going to continue 159 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 2: to get better as a pitcher. I like that he 160 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 2: throws strikes for the most part. He had three walks 161 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 2: tonight in six innings, but for the most part, he's 162 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 2: around the strike zone. 163 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 3: He challenges guys. 164 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 2: Let's talk a little bit about him in the pitcher spotlight. 165 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 2: I get hyped when he's on the mound. I believe 166 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 2: in this kid wholeheartedly. The first time I saw him 167 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 2: in spring training, I was like, this guy has got 168 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 2: the prototypical pitcher's body. I mean, he is just a doorframe. 169 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 2: He is a massive, massive dude. I think it's interesting 170 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 2: that he was throwing ninety six in the miners, but 171 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 2: he's throwing ninety nine in the majors. Makes you wonder 172 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 2: about the minor league radar guns awesome, makes you wonder 173 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 2: if it's where the I's one of those things where 174 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:06,199 Speaker 2: the Yankees UH told him to kind of sandbag it 175 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 2: a little bit in the minor leagues and not throw 176 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:09,959 Speaker 2: as hard as you can. And then once he got 177 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 2: to the major leagues, they took the you know, training 178 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 2: wheels off and said just cut it loose, you know. 179 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:17,319 Speaker 3: But over his last couple. 180 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 2: Of games, we've seen him take major strides and how 181 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 2: confident he's attacking the strike zone. 182 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 3: He's I mean, he's. 183 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 2: Challenging guys with the fastball. He's throwing the breaking balls, 184 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:31,960 Speaker 2: throwing the breaking ball early in the count, late in 185 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:35,079 Speaker 2: the count. He had a wicked curveball. 186 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 3: Tonight. 187 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 2: He struggled a little bit in the sixth inning, put 188 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 2: a couple of guys on, but then got a nasty curveball, 189 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 2: nasty strikeout on a nasty curveball, and then got a 190 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 2: double play to get out of it. Final line six innings, 191 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 2: four hits, no runs, three walks, eight strikeouts. Hell of 192 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 2: a performance, well, mister Slitler. Brian Bashman says, I know 193 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:02,200 Speaker 2: it was the Nationals, but Schlitler looked good tonight. And 194 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 2: then Juice says, baby video game controller sits in the 195 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 2: diaper under the word nube. I don't know what that 196 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 2: is is always is it like one of those stickers 197 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 2: or something. 198 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 3: I don't know. 199 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 4: Uh. 200 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 2: And then Brian Bashman also says, who came up with 201 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 2: these promotional nights and what were they smoking? Hamilton is great. 202 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,440 Speaker 2: I love Hamilton. My wife got me into Hamilton. We 203 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 2: watch it probably once a year, but it was we 204 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 2: saw it in person, not on Broadway, but like the 205 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 2: Traveling Show. 206 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 3: It was fantastic. 207 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 2: And then Junior Coroma says Mark Lighter, Junior freaking suck smh, 208 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 2: shaking my head. But yeah, let's take some voicemails here 209 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 2: the reaction. We got a call here from It's like Charlie. 210 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 4: Hello, Derek, this is Charlie out here in Arizona. 211 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:48,440 Speaker 3: I can't hear. 212 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 4: First time. 213 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 3: Here we go. 214 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 4: Sorry, hello Derek, this is Charlie out here in Arizona. 215 00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 4: You know, first time caller, Derek. Just a quick here. 216 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 4: You know, I go back to nineteen seventy five. That's 217 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 4: how long I've been a Yankee fan, and I've watched 218 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 4: this team over the years, and you know, I can 219 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 4: remember when the Yankees had two shortstops, two short stops 220 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 4: in particular, Fret Stanley and Bucky Dan who couldn't hit 221 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 4: a lick, you know, I mean, I look at Bolpi 222 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 4: and I hear the noise, and I think we have 223 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 4: to give this kid a shot. I mean, twenty one 224 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,200 Speaker 4: home runs, twenty two home runs in his first year. 225 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 4: I mean, my goodness, if we had a shortstop that 226 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,559 Speaker 4: could hit two forty five and hit twenty two home 227 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 4: runs and driving seventy RBIs back in the day, was 228 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 4: are you kidding me? That was a great shortstop. I 229 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 4: think he's playing a little, a little afraid. Let's give 230 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 4: him a chance. I think this kid can He's got 231 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 4: what it takes, and I think we should have him 232 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 4: in the leadoff spot. I think he should be leading off, 233 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 4: and I think if we did that, I think his 234 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 4: numbers will be a lot better. They're a good job. 235 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,959 Speaker 4: Thank you, Appreciate you, and good luck with yourself. 236 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 2: Appreciate it. Definitely a different take than what we've seen 237 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 2: here lately. A lot of people ready to give up 238 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 2: on Volpi. I mean, considering the fact that he is 239 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 2: dead last in numerous offensive categories since he's come up. 240 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 2: It's kind of tough to maintain that kind of production 241 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 2: this day and age, especially when his defense has taken 242 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 2: a step back. He's not a great defender. He's had 243 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 2: some great seasons like his first year, he was terrific. 244 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 2: Last year he was pretty good. This year, he's definitely 245 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 2: taken a step back. Joe Mono says, it's governor not 246 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,080 Speaker 2: training wheels. That is the word I was looking for you, sir. 247 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:40,119 Speaker 2: Get the clap. Retro Tony says, following in Jeter's footsteps 248 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 2: is tough, but Jeter retired long before he came up. 249 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,959 Speaker 2: It was Dedey Grigorius who was following in Jeter's footsteps. 250 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 2: Is every Yankee shortstop from now on gonna follow in 251 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:53,439 Speaker 2: Jeter's footsteps? I mean, I guess technically, but come on, 252 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 2: at some point, you can't be thinking about Derek Jeter 253 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:58,199 Speaker 2: when you're out there trying to hit. I don't think 254 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:02,199 Speaker 2: that's the case. Year is a call about the Martian. 255 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 5: Hey, Derek, Mike from the Bay Area here. I just 256 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 5: wanted to, you know, talk about Jason Dominguez. 257 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:19,199 Speaker 6: I know you are really high on him. I think overall, 258 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:23,560 Speaker 6: he's not having a horrible season his rookie year, but 259 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 6: it's been a little disappointing. I mean, his defense is pretty. 260 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 5: Under average or you know, below average, right, and his 261 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 5: hitting is not really offsetting that or making up for that. 262 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 6: So you know, moving forward. I really, I really hate 263 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 6: to say this because he's still very young, but he 264 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 6: might be a good trade piece, right for a good Yeah. 265 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,320 Speaker 2: So it goes on for another minute and forty five seconds. Guys, 266 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 2: if you can keep your your calls under a minute 267 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 2: or so, that would make it easier for me to 268 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 2: play the whole thing. But I wouldn't trade Dominguez. And 269 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:08,680 Speaker 2: it's not just because I'm kind of a stand for 270 00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 2: Domingez a fan boy. By the way, the movie stands 271 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 2: if you're an eminem fan, comes out streaming tomorrow. I 272 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 2: can't wait to watch that. But I think that he's 273 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 2: got a lot of potential. You know, he's got the power. 274 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 2: He's not a home run hitter, but he's got power. 275 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 2: But like I said, he's a good hitter. He takes 276 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 2: a ball the other way. You know, he works the count, 277 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 2: he's a good bass runner. He's got a long way 278 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 2: to go on defense. 279 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 3: Here's taper talk Yay. 280 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 7: Derek was still in it on paper soil from the 281 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 7: task Skills. So you know, I watch every one of 282 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 7: your every one of your videos lately. 283 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 6: I've been watching it after the series you and talking 284 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 6: at it. 285 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 7: Yeah, because I like to walking Yanks too, and I'm 286 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 7: watching your rant, the rant one on Saturday. 287 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 6: Holy shit, thirty and forty views. Look at your subs 288 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 6: seventy one four k. 289 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 7: Dude, he didn't really really like in subscribe famous great componency. 290 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,560 Speaker 6: Now here's the thing. If someone said. 291 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 7: A while back, like I like when the Yanks lose 292 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 7: because of your rant, like your rent videos do better, 293 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 7: He's not wrong. See I disagree with him. Obviously a 294 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 7: diehard Yankee fan for many decades. You know, obviously the 295 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 7: Yanks winning and all that, that's number one priority. 296 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 6: But your videos do better when they lose. He's not wrong. 297 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, so let's talk about it. 298 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 2: I think that there's definitely a community thing that when 299 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 2: the Yankees lose, you know, misery loves company, right, people 300 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 2: want to vent, and it gives part of what this 301 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 2: podcast does. One of the objectives is to give people 302 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 2: a healthy way to vent, you know, and and a 303 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 2: healthy way for me to vent. You know, I don't 304 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 2: like having to rent. I would prefer that every night 305 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 2: was a celebration, and every night we had the fun 306 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 2: sound effects and we had you know, the fun hat, 307 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 2: the victory hat, and we were giving out the Belt 308 00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 2: like that. Those are my favorite episodes to do. Like 309 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 2: tonight was a fun episode, but it's kind of like 310 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 2: got a damper on it because how weak the Yankees 311 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 2: have played. But and also I'm a little bit under 312 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 2: the weather tonight, which is why my mind is all 313 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 2: over the place. But I don't want to rant, you know, 314 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 2: But I think the reason that it connects with people 315 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 2: is because everything that I say in one of those 316 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 2: rants is genuinely from my heart. You know, I watch 317 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,800 Speaker 2: these games I've been watching, I've maybe missed. I like 318 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 2: to say I've missed a dozen games since nineteen ninety two. 319 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 2: That's pretty much, you know what it is. And when 320 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 2: I say missed a game, that means missed it entirely. 321 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 2: Like there's been a lot of games that I've had 322 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 2: to listen to on the radio, or I caught five 323 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 2: innings in a hotel lobby on my phone, you know 324 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 2: that type of stuff. But there have been times when 325 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 2: I've been on an airplane and I couldn't watch it, 326 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 2: and then I have to get off the plane and 327 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 2: go do something, and by the time I get done, 328 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 2: it's like three in the morning. And then the next 329 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 2: day it's just like whatever. I've missed a few games, 330 00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 2: I've been sick a few times. But when you want 331 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 2: watch this often and this intently, you start to really 332 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 2: you recognize patterns, okay, And what frustrates people is seeing 333 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 2: the same things happen over and over and over and 334 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 2: over again. Teams that are like all home run or nothing, 335 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 2: where we beat up on week teams like tonight and 336 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:23,320 Speaker 2: then lose against good competition. And when it happens year 337 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 2: after year after year, and you kill yourself with fun 338 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 2: and meals and stuff like it sounds like I'm just 339 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,480 Speaker 2: regurgitating it, but I'm really just venting, you know, the 340 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 2: stuff that I'm seeing. So that's why I think the 341 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,440 Speaker 2: rants connect with people. But like I said, I would 342 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 2: much rather have a fun episode that celebrates a victory 343 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 2: every single give me that seven days a week. 344 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 3: Call about Cashman, Yes, Hi, Derek Steve from me. 345 00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:53,919 Speaker 8: Cashman is of the opinion that collecting talent is the 346 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 8: winning formula. 347 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 6: He's dead wrong. 348 00:17:56,840 --> 00:18:00,439 Speaker 8: If you listen to the pregame interview with Trevor's story 349 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:03,639 Speaker 8: was interesting and he may have been referring to the Yankees. 350 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 8: The last thing he said was it's not always the 351 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 8: most talented team that wins bingo. 352 00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 3: That is all I appreciate the call. Man. 353 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:17,880 Speaker 2: I think about this line. I know it's a fictional movie, 354 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,640 Speaker 2: but it's a true story the movie Miracle where Kurt 355 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 2: Russell plays Herb Brooks and he says, you know, I'm 356 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:25,919 Speaker 2: not looking for the best players, I'm looking for the 357 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:26,440 Speaker 2: right ones. 358 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:28,639 Speaker 3: Right. It's not always the most talented players. 359 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 2: It's the teams that take that talent and use it 360 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 2: cohesively as a unit. 361 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 3: Right. And I think that's applicable to every sport. Every sport. 362 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,359 Speaker 2: The teams that win, they always seem to have great chemistry, 363 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 2: work really well as a unit. All right, quick word 364 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 2: from Fair Harbor and then we'll be back to wrap 365 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 2: it up. 366 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:53,119 Speaker 1: FT fam, Welcome to the World's most Comfortable Swimwear.

I'm not going 393 00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 2: to even try and pronounce that, And he says, is 394 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 2: it too late for Derek to be convinced the Yankees 395 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 2: can turn things around with this group if they keep 396 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 2: the winning up for me to be convinced they could win. 397 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:12,400 Speaker 2: They have a stretch coming up where they play three 398 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 2: against Houston in Houston, then they have three against Toronto 399 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 2: in New York. Then they play Detroit for three at 400 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,959 Speaker 2: Yankee Stadium, and then they play Boston for three. So 401 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 2: that's what three, six, nine, twelve games. If they go 402 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 2: eleven to one in that stretch and they pitch their 403 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,879 Speaker 2: asses off and they play good defense and they build 404 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:37,120 Speaker 2: some momentum and they take over first place, you will 405 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:41,399 Speaker 2: hear me start to speak more optimistically. They would have 406 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,919 Speaker 2: to go absolutely ballistic, but I think they're gonna go 407 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,199 Speaker 2: about four and eight in that stretch. That would be 408 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 2: my prediction right now. All right, guys, good night for 409 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 2: the Yankees. Two wins in a row. We'll be back tomorrow, 410 00:20:55,880 --> 00:21:11,120 Speaker 2: Yanks taking on the Nationals again one more time. Great 411 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:16,679 Speaker 2: comment here from Bryan Bashman. He says, Fernando Cruz is 412 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:18,680 Speaker 2: the key if he comes back and can be the closer. 413 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 2: There's a chance he's not gonna be the closer. He's 414 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,479 Speaker 2: gonna pitch in the middle portion of the game, and 415 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 2: I think that's a great spot for him, like as 416 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 2: a setup guy. And this Yankees stretch of them not 417 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:32,920 Speaker 2: being good really started right around the time he went out, 418 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,880 Speaker 2: and he has been missed, and so hopefully he comes 419 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:39,439 Speaker 2: back and dominates. But you know if the bullpen gets stronger, 420 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 2: it can go a long way. You can beat good 421 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 2: teams if your bullpen is lights out, and I think 422 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:46,119 Speaker 2: that's what the Yankees are gonna try and do. That's 423 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:48,400 Speaker 2: why I think Cashman tried to pick up so many 424 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 2: pieces at the deadline, but so far it's been mixed results. 425 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 2: All right, guys, we'll see you next time.
