1 00:00:09,520 --> 00:00:13,200 Speaker 1: We do it, everybody. Welcome to a I would say 2 00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:18,880 Speaker 1: a not very positive postgame show for tonight. That was 3 00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:21,440 Speaker 1: just a lame one tonight. I was pretty much out 4 00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:24,680 Speaker 1: of it for pretty much the entire game, you know, 5 00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:27,720 Speaker 1: minus the first couple of innings there, you know, Costa 6 00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:29,760 Speaker 1: is getting the home run late in the game. Other 7 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:32,159 Speaker 1: than that, I just felt checked out. You know, I 8 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:34,519 Speaker 1: was taking my notes throughout the game, but I was 9 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:36,639 Speaker 1: checking on you know, news and notes. You know, when 10 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:40,400 Speaker 1: it comes to you know, Lucas Giolito, Connor Wong have 11 00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,800 Speaker 1: an update on Massataki Yoshida as well. You know, then 12 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,560 Speaker 1: Costa's hit the home run and I'm like, okay, all right, 13 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 1: I'm maybe getting a little juice here, but they end 14 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 1: up falling short. To be honest, I thought just kind 15 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 1: of an embarrassing night. 16 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 2: You know. 17 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 1: We talked last night after Game one previewing Game two. 18 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 1: You know, of course this ends up happening when I'm 19 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 1: saying that the Red Sox should be all over Emerson Hancock. 20 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 1: This is a guy who hasn't really done all that 21 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 1: much in his career. Sure number six pick back in 22 00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 1: twenty twenty, but really hasn't been able to put anything 23 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 1: together at the major league level and for him to 24 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, sure, give up a couple of runs tonight, 25 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:25,560 Speaker 1: but you know he was. He set a career higd 26 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: strikeouts tonight, you know. So it kind of just frustrates 27 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 1: me how this Red Sox offense they are just so 28 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:36,680 Speaker 1: up and down this year and the approach. I don't know, man, 29 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:40,320 Speaker 1: They're just always swinging. I just feel like it's just 30 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: funny how the Red Sox this year with the amount 31 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 1: there swinging. It's kind of not even a surprise that 32 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: Hancock set a career hid strikeouts tonight. What can you do? 33 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: It is what it is. But we'll dive more into 34 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 1: the postgame showing just a second here, I do want 35 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,640 Speaker 1: to go over tonight's sponsor, Arena Club.

But you know, let's 63 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 1: kind of just run through this one pretty quick, because 64 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:17,799 Speaker 1: we got a couple of news and notes to talk 65 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 1: about that I think are a bit more worth talking 66 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 1: about than tonight's game. Just in the end, not enough 67 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: for the offense here, but the pitching did not help 68 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 1: out in that department. Terrible pitching overall. Sean newcome five innings, 69 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 1: eight hits, four earned. Second inning. You know, he ran 70 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 1: into some trouble there, loaded the bases, but once again 71 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,120 Speaker 1: doing the one thing and he's been pretty good at 72 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 1: you know, again, he limited the damage over the last 73 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 1: few starts. He was getting it done for the most part. 74 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: But one thing that he has been able to do 75 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 1: well since, you know, coming to the Red Sox is 76 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 1: getting those double plays. And he got one there in 77 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 1: the second inning. It was the liner to Coasas. Then 78 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: he stepped on the bag, the run did score, and 79 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: then I struck out j Rod on that nice sweeper there, 80 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 1: not to strand a couple of runners. So I was 81 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,119 Speaker 1: kind of thinking, all right, cool, we got you know, 82 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: we got some stuff going our way yet again. But 83 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: then later on JP Crawford three run home run, they 84 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 1: made it four to nothing. You know, Jp Crawford, I've 85 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:19,039 Speaker 1: been mentioning that about him in the last couple of streams. 86 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 1: This guy's looking for a bounce back year. He was 87 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 1: very good a couple of years ago. Last year, you know, 88 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: he's having a lot of injuries. So two for four 89 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: for him tonight home run four, Ribby's good night for 90 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: JP Crawford overall, but then the bullpen, you know, didn't 91 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 1: really help out all that much. Brendan Bernardino give up 92 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: two unearned or give up two runs not earned, but 93 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 1: that was because of an error that he made. He 94 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 1: bobbled a little bit of a comebacker to him and 95 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: then he made the bad throw over the first base. 96 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: He got the run that scored that made it five 97 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 1: to two. Jay Rod with the base hit made it 98 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 1: six to two. And then joshwin Kowski, you know, I 99 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 1: feel like with joshwin Kowski, let me let me pull 100 00:04:56,240 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 1: up the numbers here. With wing Kowski, I mean, I 101 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: don't know what is he. It's just I remember a 102 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 1: couple of years ago, we were all so high on 103 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: this guy. You know, we're thinking, oh man, you know, 104 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: could this guy, you know, even be in the rotation 105 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,720 Speaker 1: at some point. He hasn't been bad necessarily, you know, well, 106 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: coming into tonight, not bad necessarily. El Rad a three 107 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 1: point one two fip right around the same at a 108 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 1: three point twenty six. But he's just not that same 109 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: guy that we saw back in twenty twenty three when 110 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,840 Speaker 1: he had an Elra at a two point eight eight. 111 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,600 Speaker 1: He's just not getting the strikeouts like he used to. 112 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: You know, he had right around just under nine strikeouts 113 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,039 Speaker 1: per nine back in twenty twenty three, and so far 114 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 1: this year only five k's per nine. Again, it's a 115 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,279 Speaker 1: small sample, but you know, he just hasn't really been 116 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: that same kind of a guy. Came in the seventh inning, 117 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 1: Williamson had the base hit that made a seven to two, 118 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 1: Crawford adding on another RBI there uh eight two at 119 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 1: that point, but then Castas comes up, and this is 120 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 1: where the offense it just wasn't enough, and this is 121 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 1: where you know you got to take it vantage of 122 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 1: a guy like Emerson Hancock. I'm sorry, this is where 123 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 1: I get from. You know, it's kind of one of 124 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: those things. When the Red Sox get the runs on 125 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: the board, obviously you know you're happy with it. But 126 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: this is something with the Red Sox this year so 127 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 1: far I've just not liked because there's a lot of 128 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 1: talented guys in this lineup and they're just swinging, swinging, swinging, swinging, swinging. 129 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: They lead the major leagues in swings. I mean, it's 130 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: kind of one of those things, right you look at 131 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:30,359 Speaker 1: how Bailey has handled the pitching staff right, focusing on 132 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:33,359 Speaker 1: the strengths, and it's kind of like with the Red Sox. 133 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,719 Speaker 1: They're thinking, all right, we want to do damage, so 134 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 1: just swing the bat. But it's kind of one of 135 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: those things where you look at the amount of strikeouts 136 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 1: they get. You look at you know, there's times, yes, 137 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 1: they put together some you know, competitive at bats, but 138 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 1: there's times where they just go down I feel like, 139 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 1: so easily, and these guys are just so aggressive. You know, 140 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 1: it's interesting, it's very it's very early still. You know, 141 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 1: it even feels a bit silly to say, but I 142 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,359 Speaker 1: do wonder I said this in the last couple of 143 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,359 Speaker 1: streams as well. I just wonder if by the end 144 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 1: of the year, if they keep having this this up 145 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 1: and down offense right where you get some great nights 146 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: and there's been obviously a lot of games where the 147 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 1: pitching has really come through. I do just wonder if 148 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: they continue to have this up and down offense and 149 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 1: they're not being competitive enough against a guy like Emerson Hancock. Again, 150 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: no disrespect, but that's a guy who should be jumping 151 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 1: all over man, you know, based off of what he's 152 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: done so far. I just wonder if they go with 153 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 1: a different approach next year, you know, do they go 154 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 1: with a different hitting coach, you know, do they kind 155 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 1: of switch some things up with the offense. You know. Anyway, 156 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: way too early to be, you know, really talking about that. 157 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 1: But maybe I'm just frustrated. You know, maybe it's just 158 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: one of those nights. But but getting back to Emerson Hancock, right, 159 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: seventeen career starts coming into tonight era over a five 160 00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 1: in his career, two games with at least five strikeouts. 161 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 1: Out of those seventeen starts. His career high before tonight 162 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: was six strikeouts. Set a career high tonight with seven. 163 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: I mean no, I mean that's not like, you know, 164 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 1: a fifteen strikeout performance. But I'm just pointing out the 165 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 1: fact that I mean the Red Sox, of course, you know, 166 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 1: they're the team that you know, ends up helping out 167 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: Hancock in that department, right, you know, helping him set 168 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 1: a career high. So it's just a little frustrating, but 169 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 1: you know, sure, Cossus, I mean that is a bit 170 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 1: of a bright side here with trusting Cassus Hey starting 171 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:33,199 Speaker 1: to put some juice into the bat a little bit. 172 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 1: You know, I was talking about this last night. Are 173 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:39,079 Speaker 1: we seeing signs of Casas right hitting the home run? 174 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:41,319 Speaker 1: You kind of feel like, you know, he's been putting 175 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 1: some barrels on the on the ball this year. He's 176 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 1: had a decent hard hit percentage. The long shangle, sweet 177 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 1: spot was looking all right. You're kind of just waiting 178 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: for something to happen, and are we seeing it with 179 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 1: Kassas here? Back to back nights with a home run. Now, 180 00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:02,079 Speaker 1: maybe he could be waking up. We'll see, we'll see, 181 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 1: but at the very least he's at least building some 182 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 1: confidence here. I mean, you got to think, back to 183 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:08,959 Speaker 1: back nights with a home run, He's probably gotta be 184 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 1: feeling pretty good about himself. So in the end, I 185 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 1: made it eight to five, but they come up short. 186 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 1: When you got Andrea's Munoz going for the Mariners, I mean, 187 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: that says a shut down as it can get. He 188 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: showing why, he's showing why tonight, why he's one of 189 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: the top closers in the game. Rev. Snyder SETI Duran 190 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 1: going down one, two, three. But let's kind of get 191 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 1: to just some other talking points here. I saw a 192 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 1: lot of people asking, you know, why wasn't Hunter Dobbins 193 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 1: starting tonight. It's kind of one of those things, right, 194 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: you know, I kind of had to look into how 195 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 1: the options work, you know, I was kind of reading 196 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,720 Speaker 1: up on all the rules and whatnot. So hundred Dobbins 197 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 1: is in an option year, and you get basically, at 198 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 1: least from my understanding, is that depending on I think 199 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 1: it's if you are down the minor leagues for twenty days, 200 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 1: that ends up using an option year. And I guess 201 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 1: in your option years you have an unlimited amount of 202 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 1: call ups basically, and he was gonna be on normal rest. So, 203 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 1: you know, people, I think it was fair to ask, 204 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,560 Speaker 1: you know, why wasn't he going tonight. It's not like 205 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: Worcester is very far, you know from Boston, But I 206 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 1: kind of just wonder if it was just more of 207 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 1: like a maybe the Red Sox felt like, all right, 208 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:29,719 Speaker 1: newcome's been fine the last two starts. Maybe they liked 209 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:31,959 Speaker 1: the match up against the Mariners. Maybe they liked him 210 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: against some of their you know, lefty bats, and of 211 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 1: course you know JP Crawford, you know, lefty bat going 212 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 1: deep on them. But I kind of just wonder if 213 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 1: maybe they were just they felt comfortable with a Newcome 214 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: and they felt like, you know, let's just keep Dobbins 215 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:47,960 Speaker 1: at Triple A instead of having him go back and 216 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 1: forth again, even though it's not that you know far sure, 217 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 1: you know, well, how long is it from Worcester to 218 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 1: Boston was an hour? You know really? But maybe they 219 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,560 Speaker 1: just felt like, hey, you know what, you know, staying Worcester, 220 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 1: keep your routine going, you know, let's not have you 221 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 1: just keep shuttling back and forth. Maybe that was just 222 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 1: something that came into play. I don't know the answer. 223 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:07,719 Speaker 1: I don't know if Core talked about this after the game. 224 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:12,560 Speaker 1: I haven't listened to the post game, but that's kind 225 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 1: of my thinking. I don't I don't think it was 226 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,319 Speaker 1: anything crazy. I think they were just like, all right, 227 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 1: let's just try and get one more start out of Newcomb. 228 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 1: Let Dobbins get to start down in Triple A, work 229 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 1: on a couple of things. I don't know. That's kind 230 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 1: of my thinking. Am I right? Am I right? I 231 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 1: have no idea. Right, you'd have to you'd have to 232 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 1: ask Alex Cora Craig Breslo about that one. But for 233 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 1: the next start, for the next start, right, who's it 234 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 1: going to be? Is Sean Newcomb gonna have another start 235 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 1: as a Boston Red Sox. I'm thinking probably not. I'm 236 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 1: thinking that is going to be his last start, unless 237 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 1: like an injury happens or whatever. My guess is that 238 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 1: this is going to be it for Sean Newcome and 239 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 1: I think a big reason for that obviously, you know 240 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 1: not you know, when you look at the stat line 241 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 1: for him tonight, I mean, it's obviously not a great 242 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 1: night for him. He did strike out six guys here tonight, 243 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:14,559 Speaker 1: but you know, for a fifth starter, it's like, all right, 244 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 1: But I'm looking at Lucas Giolito and it looks like 245 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 1: he's getting a lot closer here to coming back. So 246 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 1: taking a look. Alex Kor did talk about Lucas Giolito, 247 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 1: saying that he's expected to make his final rehab start 248 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 1: this Friday with the WU socks bearing any setbacks it 249 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 1: appears or no, so I'm reading the wrong thing. Said 250 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,319 Speaker 1: he will most likely be activated for the final game 251 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:46,679 Speaker 1: of next week's series in Toronto on Thursday. So kind 252 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 1: of the way that's working out is let me see 253 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,680 Speaker 1: here in my notes, so Crochet and how they're gonna 254 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 1: be on normal rest. That'll give Bao and Bueller an 255 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,679 Speaker 1: extra day of rest, which I think could be good 256 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 1: for those guys. Right, you gotta remember with Buehler, this 257 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 1: is a guy who's you know, has had now to 258 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 1: Tommy Johnson his career. Brian Bao just coming back last night, 259 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 1: you know, from working his way back, so maybe another 260 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 1: day of rest could be good for him. But if 261 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:17,599 Speaker 1: Giolito is slated for his start in Triple A on Friday, 262 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 1: that'll end up giving him six days of rest before 263 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:25,559 Speaker 1: a start on May first, Right, it kind of just 264 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: ends up working out that way, And for Giolito, I 265 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 1: don't think it would hurt for him to, you know, 266 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: get one more day. I know he's talked about having like, 267 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,439 Speaker 1: you know, just the normal days of rest, but hey, 268 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,679 Speaker 1: you gotta remember him. You know, he's obviously coming back 269 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 1: from his own arm issues, had the handstring things, so 270 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 1: maybe an extra day could be good for him. But 271 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 1: at this point, you know, with Sean you come, I will. 272 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 1: I'll give a lot of credit to new come here. 273 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 1: This is a guy that's he has definitely been battling 274 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,040 Speaker 1: here over the last few years, and for him to 275 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 1: get an opportunity the way he did, you know, with 276 00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:01,200 Speaker 1: the red Sox in his first month. You know, I 277 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 1: think I think he really helped himself out. He did 278 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 1: show a lot of good things. I definitely could see 279 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 1: if he gets DFAD, I could definitely see a team 280 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 1: out there, you know, taking a chance on him, you know, thinking, 281 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 1: you know, maybe this is a guy that you know 282 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 1: they can bring in for long relief, you know, for 283 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 1: the bullpen, you know, a depth guy, whatever it may be. 284 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: I could also see you know, him, if he gets DFAID, 285 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 1: if you know, no one claims him and there's no 286 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 1: trade or whatever it is, I could easily just see 287 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: him going back to the WU socks. You know. I mean, obviously, 288 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 1: you know, this is the best he has pitched. I 289 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 1: mean for a long time now. I mean if you 290 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 1: go back over the last you know, several years with 291 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 1: newcome right, you know, he had seven games with the 292 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 1: Athletics last year. He was all right back in twenty 293 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: twenty three. I believe he had you know, some injuries 294 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 1: over the last couple of years. But minus that, I mean, 295 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 1: this is a guy that's really struggled to find his 296 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 1: way in his career. And you know, sure a little 297 00:14:56,200 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 1: bumpy tonight, but I just think, you know, it's it's 298 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 1: not necessarily anything against him, Like, yes, you do want 299 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: to see a bit of an improvement in the rotation, 300 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 1: but I think it's also more due to the fact 301 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 1: you know that, you know Lucas Gilito, you are paying 302 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 1: this guy some money, and I'd like to see what 303 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 1: Gildo can do as the fifth guy in the rotation. 304 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: I'd love to see what Andrew Bailey, you know, could 305 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 1: maybe do with Lucas Gilido, you know, can they get 306 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 1: a new game plan for him to get him back 307 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 1: on track in his career. So I'm kind of more 308 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 1: willing to go that route as of right now than 309 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 1: you know, kind of let Sean Newcome either be a 310 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 1: depth guy within the organization if it gets to that point, 311 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 1: or maybe gets another chance to another team. So again, 312 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 1: not great for Newcome here tonight, but if you take 313 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 1: a look at the body of work over the last 314 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 1: few weeks with the Red Sox, I feel like he's 315 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 1: been okay and I think he's at least earned himself 316 00:15:55,280 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 1: a place somewhere within an organization, whether that in Boston 317 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 1: or with or with another team. So if that's the 318 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 1: way it goes, Hey Sean Newcome, Hey, appreciate the service 319 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 1: here over the last month. I mean, this guy, I 320 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 1: think he showed some good things and I think that's 321 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 1: the best he's looked for a long time. So but 322 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: Lucas Giolito, this is gonna be if this is the 323 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 1: way it's going and Giolito is going to get that 324 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 1: start lining up against Toronto, I'm excited to see how 325 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 1: it goes. Right, this is the guy. He's at his own, 326 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 1: you know, bumps over the last couple of years. You know, 327 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 1: he looked pretty solid before getting traded to the Angels 328 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 1: a couple of years ago and that just went horrendous. 329 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,160 Speaker 1: And then he went to the Guardians and that was horrendous. 330 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 1: And then obviously going to the Red Sox last year, 331 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 1: had the elbow injury, got surgery on it. So it's 332 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 1: been an interesting few years here for Lucas. Gilie excited 333 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 1: to see what he could do with the Red Sox. 334 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 1: So we'll see how that goes. We also got some 335 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: news here on Connor Wong and now it looks like 336 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 1: he's gonna be back sooner rather than later. Alex Korra 337 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 1: talked about this, saying that he is expected to begin 338 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 1: a rehab assignment this weekend. If all goes well, he 339 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:13,120 Speaker 1: could return to the Red Sox lineup early next week. 340 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:16,359 Speaker 1: And you know what, I'm okay with that. I'm okay 341 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:19,440 Speaker 1: with that. Blake's sable. You know, I think he had 342 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 1: a double you know with the Red Sox. But other 343 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,880 Speaker 1: than that, I mean, I think everyone's kind of ready 344 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:26,920 Speaker 1: to move on at this point. You know, I liked 345 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:31,359 Speaker 1: the idea of bringing him in, you know, in the offseason, like, okay, cool, 346 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 1: you know, some organizational depth at the catcher's spot. He's 347 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 1: shown some decent things with the bat in the past. 348 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 1: You know, maybe they could tap into something. But defensively, 349 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:44,439 Speaker 1: it was pretty miserable for the most part. Yeah, he 350 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 1: just looked like he just was not really ready to 351 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 1: contribute anything with the Red Sox at this point. Yasmini Grandal, 352 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 1: I believe he Homer today. So you know, with Connor Wong, 353 00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:59,719 Speaker 1: I mean, here's the thing, you know, Carlos Dervis I 354 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:04,200 Speaker 1: think is the guy as of right now. I would 355 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 1: not be going back to Wong on a full time basis. 356 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 1: I think he's really just the backup guy at this point. 357 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 1: I think Carlos Nervas has shown better things offensively and 358 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:17,720 Speaker 1: defensively Wong. I mean, he wasn't really doing anything with 359 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:20,720 Speaker 1: the bat, so you know, he's got a good arm, 360 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,399 Speaker 1: but it's not really a whole lot defensively with him 361 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:28,359 Speaker 1: behind the plate, you know. So it'll be interesting, you 362 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:30,639 Speaker 1: know if Connor Wong, you know, what, what is the 363 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 1: role with him? What is the playing time going to 364 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: be with him moving forward? Now that it seems like 365 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:39,640 Speaker 1: Nervas says, pretty much taken the bulk of the starting time, 366 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:43,760 Speaker 1: so or you know, could there be a situation where, 367 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,919 Speaker 1: you know, maybe Yasmani Grandal comes up at some point, 368 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:51,159 Speaker 1: Connor Wong does have one more option left. It'd be 369 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 1: interesting interesting keep an eye on that over the next 370 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 1: couple of weeks. 371 00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:57,159 Speaker 2: But for. 372 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:03,640 Speaker 1: The last topic for tonight before we get out of here, 373 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:09,439 Speaker 1: how about Marcelo Minor. This guy continues to be red hot, 374 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 1: continues to be red hot, and uh, we even got 375 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: a little footage here, We got a little full, we 376 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:16,919 Speaker 1: got a little footage. Hopefully I don't get a hopefully 377 00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:19,159 Speaker 1: don't get copyright. It is minor league stuff, so I 378 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 1: think that's a little different. But Marcelo Meyer going deep 379 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:26,359 Speaker 1: again today, another two run homer, and uh, I mean, 380 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 1: my goodness, this guy is just red hot. As of late. 381 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:34,160 Speaker 1: He's gotten two hits in each of his one, two, three, four, 382 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 1: five six games. He's had a two hit game his 383 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:40,400 Speaker 1: last six games, twelve hits total. I mean, this guy 384 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 1: is just on fire at this point. It looks like 385 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 1: he's completely coming to his own here if he keeps 386 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 1: hitting like this. I mean, this is kind of one 387 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 1: of those This is what you know when you look 388 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:57,919 Speaker 1: at examples of players that are forcing their way to 389 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 1: the major league roster. The way he's hitting, I wonder 390 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 1: if we can end up seeing him at some point. 391 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 1: You know, it's going to be interesting to see how 392 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 1: the the roster works itself out. I at this point, 393 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:13,440 Speaker 1: I don't know if you end up calling up Roman 394 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 1: Anthony and Marcelo Meyer, I don't know how you do that. 395 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean Willier, you know, he had 396 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 1: a three hit game. What was that last night? And 397 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: then uh, obviously SETI you know, he's got his skills 398 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 1: set that has been valuable to the Red Sox. Duran 399 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:35,400 Speaker 1: you know he's been heating up here. I mean, how 400 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 1: do you work that? You know? So, I don't know, 401 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 1: Marcelo Meyer, he's putting on the pressure. Batting average up 402 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 1: to a two seventy seven, ops up to an eight 403 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 1: thirty six. The on base he got off to a 404 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:52,119 Speaker 1: slow start, extra polite. But man, let's see what happens 405 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:54,440 Speaker 1: here over the next couple of weeks. This could get interesting. 406 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:57,680 Speaker 1: You got a few days off over like the next 407 00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:02,679 Speaker 1: month and a half right going into June. So I 408 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 1: wonder if one of those days could you end up 409 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,879 Speaker 1: seeing a Marcella Meyer call up. You know, Roman Anthony 410 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 1: I believe he had two hits here tonight as well. 411 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:12,920 Speaker 1: Let's actually go check out the numbers with Roman Anthony 412 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 1: ops at a nine to ninety hitting two ninety seven, 413 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 1: a four to thirty six on base. I mean, what 414 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 1: else is there to say. I mean, these guys are 415 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 1: just banging on the door right now. Roman Anthony I 416 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 1: believe had a good day too. They had a double 417 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 1: header at Worcester today. I mean, this guy just keeps 418 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:35,360 Speaker 1: on hitting, right. He had three hits yesterday. He collected 419 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 1: three hits over the double header today. Man, oh man, 420 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 1: getting pretty excited. But uh, let me see what you 421 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 1: guys are saying here in the chat. What do we 422 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:50,120 Speaker 1: got here? What do we got Marco Scutero's mar Hero 423 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: well a Lisa's was probably one of the last Newcome 424 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 1: starts we have to see. Yeah, I'm thinking that's gonna 425 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 1: be it for Newcome. I could see him staying with 426 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:00,919 Speaker 1: the organization though, unless another two him out there, you know, 427 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 1: see something with him. Sound Efecto nine sound effects. You're 428 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 1: in a Red Sox stream. How you doing. We've got 429 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 1: a Braves fan in the Red Sox stream. Honestly, Robbie, 430 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 1: what I hate the most is just seeing former Brave 431 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:16,359 Speaker 1: Sean Newcomb just be so bad. Been rooting for him 432 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,160 Speaker 1: during his time in Atlanta, but it didn't work out. 433 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 1: I want to see him succeed, you know, I'll say, 434 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 1: you know, I mentioned this a little earlier. This is 435 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 1: the best he's looked. You know. Yeah, a bit of 436 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,679 Speaker 1: a bumpy night, but at this point in his career, 437 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 1: you know, he's really a long man or a fifth 438 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 1: guy in a rotation. Probably more of a long man, right, 439 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 1: more of a depth kind of a guy. So I 440 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 1: think he really helped himself out over the last month. 441 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 1: He had six strikeouts tonight. I know it's the Mariners, 442 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:44,199 Speaker 1: you know, they strike out a lot too, but Mason R. 443 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,240 Speaker 1: You're thinking he's not a major league picture, he's gonna 444 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 1: go back to Triple A. I think I'd be curious 445 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 1: to see how he does in a long relief role, 446 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:54,880 Speaker 1: you know, out of the bullpen, like a multi inning 447 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:57,880 Speaker 1: kind of a guy. We'll see Moose fifteen thirty four. 448 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 1: We win the series tomorrow, and you know, that's actually 449 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 1: good timing here because we got a little, uh, we 450 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 1: got a little Garrett Croche starting tomorrow. This is a 451 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:13,360 Speaker 1: good pitching matchup. We did talk about this coming into 452 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:17,200 Speaker 1: the series and uh Man, oh Man, pretty excited about 453 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:21,119 Speaker 1: this match up. Brian Wu, this guy's electric. But Garrett 454 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:26,280 Speaker 1: Croche has been just as electric so far this year, 455 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,640 Speaker 1: coming off two great starts against the White Sox. Last start, 456 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,960 Speaker 1: they adjusted a little bit more to him, but this 457 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 1: guy's been looking great and e alrad at one point 458 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:39,439 Speaker 1: one to three so far thirty five. K's definitely leaning 459 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:43,120 Speaker 1: towards Garrett Croche tomorrow. But Brian Wu, you know, honestly, 460 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 1: is this the way the series is gonna go? You know, 461 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 1: you figured out Bryce Miller in Game one. You let 462 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,639 Speaker 1: Amerson Hancock for crying out loud, get the best of 463 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:54,920 Speaker 1: you in Game two. Do they figure out Brian Wu here? 464 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:57,960 Speaker 1: That'd be kind of a funny series. I feel like 465 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:01,359 Speaker 1: I've seen that a million times in the past, where 466 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:06,520 Speaker 1: the Red Sox just let these you know, these pictures 467 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:09,640 Speaker 1: that they should just take the town. They let him 468 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 1: get the best of them. You know. I think they 469 00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:14,840 Speaker 1: step up tomorrow and I'm hoping for a big win. 470 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: But here's the thing. When it comes to Garrett Crozche 471 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 1: and Brian Wu with the experience against them, there's not 472 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 1: a whole lot against Brian Wu. Alex Bregman, remember used 473 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 1: to be in the American League West, had some experience 474 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:32,120 Speaker 1: against him. Six abs, didn't really do a whole lot 475 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 1: against him. There has been some experience here against Garrett Croche. 476 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 1: Garver he's hitless against him over six abs. Dylan Moore 477 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:44,280 Speaker 1: is hitless against him in six abs. But Jorge Polonco, 478 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 1: he said five abs against him, hitting four hundred in 479 00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: his career. Kyle Riley has a home run against Garrett Croche. 480 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 1: Randy Rosearana he has a home run against Garrett Croche. 481 00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 1: So this is not an automatic win. A couple of 482 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:02,399 Speaker 1: these guys have seen So let's see. Let's see if 483 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:03,920 Speaker 1: Crochet can get it done. And let's see if the 484 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:07,119 Speaker 1: Red Sox offense can wake up here against Brian Woup. 485 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 1: Let's read a couple more comments here before we get 486 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:14,919 Speaker 1: out of here for the night. TD, Robbie, are you 487 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,240 Speaker 1: a Podreis believer or is this a fluke? Now? I 488 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 1: thought the Padre's we're gonna have a good year. I 489 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 1: just wonder are they gonna have enough depth to get 490 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 1: through the whole year. I mean, they're off to a 491 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,680 Speaker 1: good start now, they got talent. I just wonder if 492 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,159 Speaker 1: injuries start popping up, you know, what's gonna happen with 493 00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:32,200 Speaker 1: that team. I'm not sure, but hey, they're off to 494 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 1: a great start here. What do we got? What do 495 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 1: we got? Uh? Graham? Also, this entire bullpen not named Hendrix, Slayton, Witlock, 496 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:46,159 Speaker 1: and Chapman are just pathetic. It's pretty interesting, right. You 497 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,159 Speaker 1: feel like it's like every other day, you know, like 498 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 1: you got Chapman and Slayton one day and they do great, 499 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:56,359 Speaker 1: and then you go to guys like Hendrick's you know 500 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 1: when Kowski the next and it's like, uh, what's going 501 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 1: on with this bullpen? My goodness, Mason R I see 502 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 1: us trading for a few arms, maybe a starting picture 503 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 1: on an expiring contract. It's gonna be interesting because right 504 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,399 Speaker 1: now you're kind of thinking, like, all right, Richard Fitz 505 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 1: is probably gonna be good to go here soon? Does 506 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:17,800 Speaker 1: he go back down to Triple A? I would love 507 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 1: to see Richard Fitz back with the major league team. 508 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:25,359 Speaker 1: But I mean, if you got Crochet Mueller, bo, you know, 509 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: gi Alito coming back here, Tanner howck? I mean, I 510 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 1: know you're gonna have off days and you know things 511 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 1: are gonna they kind of work themselves out logistically that way. 512 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:37,479 Speaker 1: But you know, when do we see Richard Fitz when 513 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 1: he gets done with his rehab assignment? I don't know, 514 00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 1: you know, and then Cutter Crawford, he'll be back here eventually. 515 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 1: So I just wonder if they do trade for a starter. 516 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest, I think after trading guys like 517 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:58,919 Speaker 1: Kyle Teel Chase my draft, you know, Bradon Montgomery, I 518 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: wonder if they out another big package for a guy 519 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,879 Speaker 1: like Al Kintara. I don't think so, But if it 520 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 1: comes down to it, if they're gonna need to trade 521 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,439 Speaker 1: for a starter, I think that is gonna be the 522 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,360 Speaker 1: route they go for like a rental guy that shouldn't 523 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 1: cost all that much in prospects, I don't. I don't know. 524 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 1: Dylan Cees if he becomes available, depending on how the 525 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:20,639 Speaker 1: Pog's rays are doing, and right now they're looking good. 526 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 1: If for some reason he becomes available, I don't know, 527 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 1: you know, like what would you have to give up 528 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 1: for him? So I think if they do go after someone, 529 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 1: it'll probably be someone a bit more low key. I 530 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:36,200 Speaker 1: think the way Krozeler are pitching right now, I think 531 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,160 Speaker 1: I just don't see the Red Sox going after another 532 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 1: top guy. I could see, like you said, you know, 533 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:44,919 Speaker 1: someone on an expiring deal, maybe someone a bit more 534 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:48,119 Speaker 1: low key. And then you got Pat Graham, great point, 535 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:51,119 Speaker 1: Patrick Sandoval, he was expected to come back in the 536 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 1: second half this year. Does he come back this year? 537 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:56,879 Speaker 1: I mean, you got him too, So I don't know. 538 00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 1: You know, could Cutter Crawford sand of all? Could those 539 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:06,159 Speaker 1: be the trade deadline acquisitions at the deadline, you know, 540 00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:11,880 Speaker 1: like the acquisitions I'm quoting, I'm putting the little quoting fingers, 541 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,679 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Honestly, the way I see it, 542 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 1: I see the Red Sox going after something for the 543 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 1: bullpen I've said that a million times. I could see 544 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:23,640 Speaker 1: them going for a big arm in the bullpen, right 545 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:28,600 Speaker 1: if Hellesley becomes available, I could see that. We'll see, 546 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:31,680 Speaker 1: we'll see. But everybody, I'm gonna wrap it up there. Honestly, 547 00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:33,680 Speaker 1: I didn't think I was going to go that long 548 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 1: after this game, and we ended up going how long 549 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 1: do we go here? About? What? Thirty minutes? Well? What 550 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 1: about thirty minutes? I was thinking this was going to 551 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 1: be fifteen to twenty minutes tops, but hey, we somehow 552 00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 1: got about thirty minutes out of it. Everybody, I'm out 553 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:47,640 Speaker 1: of here. If you kind of the way out, hit 554 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 1: the like button for me. Subscribe.
