We're going to talk Kyle Schwarber. 6 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:27,280 Speaker 2: We're bringing back Manco Best Week.

It is the Philly Show. We got Ruben Tomorrow, Junior, 9 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:37,320 Speaker 2: Jim Salisbury, I'm toddsle like you're recording this on Sunday, 10 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:44,240 Speaker 2: March eighth, and guys, Kyle Schwarber Saturday Night, Houston World 11 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:48,720 Speaker 2: Baseball Classic launches a tie breaking home run into the 12 00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:53,400 Speaker 2: second deck in right field at Dykin Park. And I'm 13 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 2: just watching that and going he hits cleanup in the 14 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 2: first game of the World Baseball Classic with all these 15 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:04,040 Speaker 2: superstar players, and in the second game against Great Britain, 16 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:09,479 Speaker 2: he's hitting leadoff against with all these great players, And 17 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 2: you know, it was a great reminder for me, just 18 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 2: like how truly special it is to watch this guy 19 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 2: play every single day. For the Philadelphia Phillies, and just 20 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 2: then I start thinking, of course, down the road, what 21 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 2: kind of career this guy might be having a right, 22 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 2: what kind of career you might end up having. 23 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 1: And where you end up might be. 24 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 2: Where he might end up down the. 25 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,119 Speaker 1: Road, maybe Cooperstown. I don't know. 26 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 3: He's at three hundred and forty career home runs. He's 27 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 3: got a five year deal with that bat speed. We've 28 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 3: talked about many times how we think it's going to 29 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 3: hold up well into his thirties. Probably through the life 30 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 3: of that contract. I could see him getting in the 31 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 3: five hundred home run club, and that would be very 32 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 3: difficult to keep him out of Cooperstown. I think there's 33 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 3: a very legitimate chance that he could end up there, 34 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 3: and we could be watching the next five years the 35 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 3: finishing kick on a Cooper's Town drive, and that could 36 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 3: put two guys from this current team in Cooper's Talk, 37 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 3: because I think Harper's going already. 38 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 4: That's a great point. And also the versatility, I mean, 39 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 4: you can put them anywhere in that lineup. That's why 40 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 4: it's so interesting to start to think about what Kyle 41 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 4: Schwarber means to the Phillies on so many different. 42 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 1: Levels. 43 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 4: I mean, the guy can protect Harper, he can hit 44 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 4: in the one hole if if Topper wants to slide 45 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 4: him back in there again, if they truly want to 46 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 4: keep those three guys at the top. I mean, there's 47 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 4: a lot of different things that he can do. And 48 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 4: the people that you know that we're sort of down 49 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 4: on the Phillies as far as them being you know, 50 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 4: like a non clutch team or whatever. 51 00:02:58,080 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: The dude has. 52 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 4: Come up with big home runs after big home runs 53 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 4: and a lot of big moments, played a lot of 54 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 4: playoff games. I know lately over the last couple of years, 55 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 4: it hasn't been as. 56 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 1: Productive. 57 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 4: But the man's a stud, and the man needed to 58 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 4: be in red pin stripes, and they brought him back 59 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 4: and they did that, and they're a much much better 60 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 4: team for it. 61 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,359 Speaker 2: I was looking at some numbers. You know, you see 62 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 2: him hit that home run, you go, man, Kyle Schwarber, Dude, 63 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,079 Speaker 2: he doesn't hit too many balls farther than that. 64 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 1: And then I looked it up. 65 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 2: He's hit one hundred and let's see, one hundred and 66 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 2: eighty seven regular season home runs two hundred one including 67 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 2: the postseason in his Phillies career. 68 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 1: So he said two hundred one home runs. 69 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 2: That was only the fifty fifth longest home run he's 70 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 2: ever hit. 71 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 4: And it was a freaking tracer. 72 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 1: It was a tracer. 73 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 5: Oh. 74 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 2: And you say that, Rubin, you say he must have 75 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 2: crushed that ball. He's hit eighty eight home runs harder 76 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 2: than that one in his Phillies career. So, I mean, 77 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 2: it just shows you how absolutely incredible he is. And 78 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 2: so I was thinking about this, because we've talked about 79 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 2: this on the show in the past. Kyle Schwarber maybe 80 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 2: Philly's version of David Ortiz, David Ortiz Hall of Famer. 81 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:15,839 Speaker 1: Jim. 82 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 2: You mentioned the three hundred and forty home runs that 83 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:22,039 Speaker 2: Kyle Schwarber has five years left on or five years 84 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 2: the beginning of this five year, one hundred fifty million 85 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 2: dollar contract. Could he wiggle himself into the Hall of 86 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 2: Fame talk? I mean, so he's he's averaged forty six, right, Ruben. 87 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 4: Oh, I think so, there's no question, Like I don't. 88 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 4: I just think that unless he has it real issues 89 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 4: long term with his knees or back or something, and 90 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 4: I think he's worked those through. I think the knee 91 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:53,159 Speaker 4: stuff he's really gotten himself to the point where he's 92 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 4: super healthy. He's got a great base unless something like 93 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:01,160 Speaker 4: that happens, as it happened with Howard. Unless that happens, 94 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 4: I just can't see him not having He has such 95 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 4: great hand speed. His hands are so strong that he creates, 96 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 4: you know, a bat speed that is sort of it's 97 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 4: it's as good as anybody, and and it is, you know, 98 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 4: it's something that I don't think he's gonna lose. 99 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 6: And so, yeah, you got to think five hundred home runs, 100 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 6: how does he not go to the Hall of Fame, 101 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 6: especially since he's got a ton of he's already got 102 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 6: he's got a ring. 103 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 4: He you know, he's played on playoff teams. He's got 104 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,920 Speaker 4: tons of bulk as as far as you know, playoff 105 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 4: you know, actual production. 106 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,119 Speaker 6: God, it's hard to think then in this day and age, 107 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 6: he wouldn't be somebody that you wouldn't consider. 108 00:05:55,320 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 3: So he has been to the playoffs in ten of 109 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 3: his eleven major league seasons. He's at you know, he's 110 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 3: at what one hundred and sixty home runs away from 111 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 3: five hundred. The postseason resume is exceptional. Now, voters often 112 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 3: look at the numbers, and well, they do look at 113 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 3: the numbers. They look at the longevity of a career. 114 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 3: They also look at iconic moments, and he's had some. 115 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 3: He hit that home run in the World Series for 116 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:38,159 Speaker 3: the Cubs. He's had, you know, big moments here with 117 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 3: the Phillies. Let me ask you this question, should iconic 118 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 3: moments include the WBC. I personally think they should. This 119 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 3: is high level competition, especially when you get to the 120 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 3: later rounds, you know, when you get rid of Brazil 121 00:06:56,120 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 3: and those teams. But I think it should come. I mean, 122 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 3: this is a Major League Baseball MLB and MLBPA sponsored event. 123 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 3: I think if you have big moments and help your 124 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,560 Speaker 3: team put a gold medal around its neck, I think 125 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 3: the voter should take that into consideration in terms of 126 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 3: a player's full body of work. So it's just. 127 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 2: It's so funny you say that, Jim, because I was 128 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 2: literally thinking about this on the flight back down to Clearwater. 129 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 2: Is is there going to come a time when on 130 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 2: a Hall of Fame plaque you will see led Team 131 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 2: Japan to three World Baseball Classic Championships or whatever. Right, 132 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 2: fifteen WBC home runs is an all time high or 133 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 2: sets a record, or whatever the case may be. 134 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: I wonder if they'll ever get to that point, they should. 135 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 3: I mean, this is an MLB sponsored event, MLBPA sponsored event, 136 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 3: This is one of Rob Manfred's babies, and the Hall 137 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 3: of Fame and MLB are link at the hip. This 138 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 3: should this should matter, and it should be recognized. In 139 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 3: my opinion, it would be a way to really grow 140 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 3: the WBC and and uh continue to legitimize it. And 141 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 3: so I think it I think it should. 142 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 4: Well, it's certainly there's certainly something they should consider. Those 143 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 4: writers who are you, writers who are voting you fellows, 144 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 4: you exceptional writers. 145 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 1: Thank you. I think I just believe. 146 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 4: That it's I think when you think of the Hall 147 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:38,680 Speaker 4: of Fame, you think not just you have to think 148 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 4: a little bit more globally. Right, It's not just about 149 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 4: the contributions that he's had on the numbers. It's the 150 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 4: contributions the man has had on his team and on 151 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 4: the game of baseball, the game of Major League baseball. 152 00:08:56,120 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 4: How has that player impacted the game of Major League baseball? 153 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,439 Speaker 4: And if he continues to do some of the things 154 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 4: he's doing right now, of course you got to consider 155 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:07,719 Speaker 4: it absolutely. 156 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,439 Speaker 2: If you're watching us on YouTube, we appreciate your support. 157 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 2: And the way you can really support us is by 158 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:18,359 Speaker 2: hitting that subscribe button as we push towards fifteen thousand subscriptions. 159 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:20,080 Speaker 1: And you also, if. 160 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 2: You enjoy the Philly Show, you can support the show 161 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 2: by going to the Phillies Show shop dot com. 162 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 1: Aja. 163 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 7: You know what I love about Hello Fresh the variety. 164 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 7: Every single week, I can choose from over one hundred recipes. 165 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:35,079 Speaker 1: That's a lot of recipes. 166 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 8: Agreed, you can go and you can narrow it down, 167 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 8: Scott to whatever you want.

I'm going to kick 205 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 2: it off here, guys, I'm going to go with my 206 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:46,440 Speaker 2: Manco Manco best Week. 207 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 1: I'm going to go with. 208 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 2: Phillies current prospect, soon to be rotation man, and that 209 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 2: is Andrew Painter. He made his first two Grapeer League 210 00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 2: starts this past week. I see it was five inning, pitched, 211 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 2: one hit, one walk, one strikeout. Done exactly what you 212 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 2: want him to do. I know we don't try to 213 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 2: put too much stuff into spring training numbers. 214 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 1: But he's showed very well. 215 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 2: He looks big league ready, and with Zach Wheeler still 216 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 2: sidelined coming back from his thorascic outlet surgery, it's a 217 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:24,479 Speaker 2: comforting feeling to see Andrew Painter kind of doing what 218 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:26,439 Speaker 2: everybody hopes he can do. 219 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 1: So, Andrew Painter, I had a really good that's a 220 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 1: good call. I'm right with you. He's throwing strikes. 221 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 4: He could command the strikes down a little bit better, 222 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 4: and he's breaking stuff a little bit better. 223 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 2: But he is. 224 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 4: Doing what you want him to do, which is get 225 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 4: people out. He's not necessarily striking people out yet consistently, 226 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 4: but it's not about that. It's about getting out. He's 227 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:55,680 Speaker 4: doing his job, and uh, we'll find out more about 228 00:12:55,720 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 4: him in the next several starts, but he's certainly in pressing. 229 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 4: I'm gonna go next gym, before you try to jump 230 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 4: in there. I'm going to drop in my man, mister 231 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 4: Bryson Stott. I have been bullish on Bryson Stott since 232 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:15,959 Speaker 4: the time he came to the big leagues, and granted 233 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:20,319 Speaker 4: he did not light it up offensively, but lest we forget, 234 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:24,559 Speaker 4: the man was the shortstop for the NL champion Phillies 235 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 4: in twenty twenty two as a rookie. Rookie much like 236 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 4: our friend Kevin Stoker. But I think this guy's got 237 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 4: a lot more offensive potential. He's shown it in fits 238 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 4: and starts at times, but. 239 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 9: I do believe that he has mastered his swing to 240 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:46,559 Speaker 9: the point where he is going to maximize his ability 241 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 9: to contribute offensively. 242 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 4: Great defender, always playing great defense. 243 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 1: Love is instinct. 244 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 4: Love the way he runs the bases, and now he's 245 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 4: pretty consistent and swinging the back great. 246 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 1: I don't know what he's and. 247 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,560 Speaker 4: He's getting close to five hundred seven hundred, right, some 248 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 4: ridiculous number, but he's picked up where he left off 249 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,959 Speaker 4: last year had a great second half, and he's continuing 250 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,960 Speaker 4: to do it with his new adjustment, and I have 251 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 4: big hopes for this young man. 252 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 1: He's the best. Great one, great. 253 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 3: One, yeah, great, great pick that that adjustment you mentioned. 254 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 3: He had an ops of over eight hundred in the 255 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 3: final two months last year hit almost three hundred, so 256 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 3: you know that adjustment has worked. He looks like a 257 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 3: different hitter, and he's coming to camp and he's he's 258 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 3: continued to do it, and he looks like a man 259 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 3: who his bat is doing the talking. And if I 260 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 3: listen closely, I'm hearing it say take this platoon and 261 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 3: stick it. 262 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 2: He would like to play one hundred and sixty two, 263 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 2: I think he said to us Jim a couple of 264 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 2: weeks ago. He makes a point to go in and 265 00:14:57,520 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 2: tell him I want to play one sixty two. 266 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 1: Probably won't happen. 267 00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 2: Sounds like they're gonna go start with so so a 268 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 2: little bit at the beginning stages. But man, you hit 269 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 2: like he's hitting now, good. 270 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 4: Bats against leftist he said, really good at bats against 271 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 4: left handers so far too. 272 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 1: I love the way his approach is solid. 273 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:23,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, since you guys took my two picks, for 274 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 3: Manco Manco Best of the Week.

Well, 300 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 3: he's off the pretty good start in the WBC. Hits 301 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 3: two home runs, does cappuccino shots and the dugout? What 302 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 3: an amazing Oh is there a difference. 303 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 5: There's a difference. 304 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 4: There's a different espress coffee to me and Todd you 305 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 4: can grill, we'll talk talk, we'll talk coffee. 306 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: But you know what's so funny about that, Reuben real quick? 307 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 4: Is that? 308 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 1: So? 309 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 5: Yeah? 310 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 2: So Team Italy they have that an espresso machine in 311 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 2: there in their dugout and now they take shots of 312 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:35,360 Speaker 2: espresso anytime somebody homers. So Dante Norge gave a great 313 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:40,880 Speaker 2: quote talking about it, and he basically said, I do 314 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 2: not like coffee, so it did not taste great. 315 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,360 Speaker 1: He said after the first one, the. 316 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 2: First one especially, I was like ugh, But the second 317 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 2: one kind of liked that one a little bit more. 318 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 3: They should they should do many no shots. 319 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 4: I do want to say something about Dante Norrie obviously 320 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:07,639 Speaker 4: a very young prospect, first round pick. This is a 321 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 4: guy that basically was a speed guy that they think 322 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 4: has a advanced ability to hit right. And you talked, 323 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:20,359 Speaker 4: you talked about it. He wanted to get himself a 324 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 4: little stronger. It does say takes some time for high 325 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 4: school players to gain their quote unquote man strength. They're 326 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 4: still maturing, they still haven't. You know, you see collegiate 327 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 4: players and when I was in college, I was a 328 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:36,399 Speaker 4: little weakly, you know, I had no strength. But you 329 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:41,400 Speaker 4: developed that eventually and you become somebody who's a little 330 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:45,439 Speaker 4: bit stronger. And it's very obvious to me that he 331 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:49,200 Speaker 4: has gained a lot of strength, and he's gained. 332 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:52,640 Speaker 1: A lot of poise. And I and I love he's 333 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 1: that that he that he. 334 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 4: I mean, he crushed those two balls. 335 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 1: Those were no joking. That was some bad speed. 336 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:03,680 Speaker 3: Well, he's he's built like a little power pack. I mean, 337 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 3: he's not a he's what five eighty five nine. He 338 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 3: is a strong, put together kid. And his dad works 339 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 3: in the NBA as a strength and conditioning guy.
