1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,880
Speaker 1: Right, like, come on, I don't think I love it.

2
00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:05,440
Speaker 1: I think it's great, But then they called it on

3
00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:07,880
Speaker 1: the Mets guy too, I've never seen this called once,

4
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:12,600
Speaker 1: forget twice.

5
00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:17,880
Speaker 2: Welcome back Ronald Acuna Junior with a bang first pitch.

6
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:20,880
Speaker 2: Nice meatball too from Nick Povetto, who's had a really

7
00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:24,640
Speaker 2: good year, but in the past he's had injury prone

8
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:29,720
Speaker 2: issues and this was center cut first pitch. Acunya blasted

9
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:32,280
Speaker 2: out hit another one the next day, back in a

10
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 2: big way for the Braves, who lost that series to

11
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:37,600
Speaker 2: the Padres. But let's look at the marathon for them.

12
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,240
Speaker 2: If Acunya is back and more of the twenty twenty

13
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:42,960
Speaker 2: three version, the Braves are a World Series contender.

14
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:47,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, this is one of the best players in baseball.

15
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 3: This baseball is better when Ronald le'cunyo is playing, when

16
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 3: he's healthy and playing. Look what he does. There's an

17
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 3: awesome video that uh is going around the Internet of

18
00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 3: someone that's by their on deck circle that is getting

19
00:00:57,760 --> 00:00:59,560
Speaker 3: since he's leading off the game, is getting him from

20
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 3: the dug eye all the way to beyond deck circle

21
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 3: to the batter's box to the first pitch home run

22
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 3: of his return and It's such a cool video to watch.

23
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 3: This is literally one of the most electrifying guys in

24
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 3: the game, and you want to put not to bring

25
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:14,399
Speaker 3: it up where I'm going to kind of counter my

26
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:15,960
Speaker 3: own point, but you want to put to rest all

27
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 3: that stuff where he commented about not running out and

28
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 3: snicker and all that stuff. You want to put that

29
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,679
Speaker 3: far behind you. This is how you give you some

30
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 3: other news to think about or talk about, where that

31
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 3: stuff doesn't matter at all anymore. Everyone's so excited. Atlanta's

32
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 3: got to be very pumped. A half him back.

33
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I mean they were waiting for this moment. Obviously,

34
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 2: they had a super slow start. They were the team

35
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,040
Speaker 2: getting picked on the most in the first few weeks

36
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:41,040
Speaker 2: of the season ozh to seven. They went to La

37
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 2: and San Diego. I was expecting two and five, so

38
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 2: they were too off that mark from I think what

39
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,520
Speaker 2: a lot of expectations would have been, maybe three and four,

40
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 2: four and three. I don't think they were expecting to

41
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:54,919
Speaker 2: go out to the West Coast. Dodgers had already played

42
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 2: to and play those teams and come out with a

43
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 2: really strong start. So okay, it happened five and thirteen.

44
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 2: So they didn't pick it up yet. Then finally they

45
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 2: got to the five hundred marks, slipped a little bit.

46
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 2: We're so early. I like to remind people, Kip. In

47
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:12,919
Speaker 2: twenty twenty one, the Braves were hovering around the five

48
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 2: hundred mark until mid August they won the World Series.

49
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 2: We're so far away from that.

50
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 3: So there's so many sections to the season, and it

51
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 3: always comes down to you just want to be playing

52
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:27,959
Speaker 3: your best ball, be in the picture in September, play

53
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,799
Speaker 3: your best ball going into the playoffs. But the season

54
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 3: is so long, and I think you realize that. A

55
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 3: lot of people do realize that, but the average fan

56
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 3: sometimes tends to forget that with the way they might

57
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 3: overreact on certain things. A lot of teams will have

58
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 3: a losing streak at some point of the season, whether

59
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 3: it's three, four or five, six, seven games doesn't matter.

60
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 3: There's sometimes or you might just go two and eight

61
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 3: and ten games. It happens. But the fact that they

62
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 3: did it the first seven games of the season was

63
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 3: an overreaction. A panic set in. And then you mentioned

64
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 3: it was on the road to two of the better teams. Uh,

65
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:02,799
Speaker 3: this team's gonna be there at the end. They're too good.

66
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 3: Not to be, and now they're starting to get a

67
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,799
Speaker 3: little bit healthier with Akunya and Strider and all them

68
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 3: back at first, So yeah, it was a little bit overreaction.

69
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 3: They're gaining their feet. Listen, I don't think anybody wants

70
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 3: to see them get going. I don't think they're everybody's

71
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,080
Speaker 3: kind of hoping this is a real thing. It's not.

72
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 3: They're going to be back there at the end.

73
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, Riley Albees Harris really haven't gotten going. Olsen just

74
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,239
Speaker 2: recently on a home run Binge. Their catcher combo is

75
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 2: lethal with Drake Baldmin a Rookie of the Year candidate,

76
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 2: Franklin in the National League, and Sean Murphy of course,

77
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 2: who's been solid for them as well, So they'll be

78
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 2: in a good spot. We'll see. But h J, let's

79
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 2: talk Braves here. We'll get back to you on the

80
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 2: other stuff. But what do you think about Atlanta now

81
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 2: getting Akunya back. I mean, that's pretty much what you

82
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 2: can ask for, aside from the series win. Seeing him

83
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 2: like that, with that kind of pop right off the

84
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 2: bat has to be a good sign. Mid nice throw

85
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 2: for an out to third at one point this weekend.

86
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 1: Two are we surprised though. That's my real question. Are

87
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 1: we really surprised by any of this with him? I mean,

88
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,119
Speaker 1: he does just have a little flare for the dramatics,

89
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 1: So to see him hit a home run as first

90
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 1: a bad first pitch, not a surprise. Where do I

91
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 1: think they are? I think they need Strider back. I

92
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 1: think they need a little bullpen help. But I think

93
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 1: they got a great shot to make her deep run

94
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: to get to the postseason. I think that they're They're alive.

95
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 1: They're not dead, and that's a big thing, especially after

96
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 1: starting one to seven mm hmm.

97
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 2: I mean, the one thing I will bring up Aja

98
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,480
Speaker 2: is that when he came back last time around from

99
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 2: tearing up the other knee, he was not the same

100
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 2: guy for a while. They get Hi an extra three

101
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,479
Speaker 2: months essentially this time. It was nine months on the

102
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 2: post recovery last time. It was twelve this time around,

103
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 2: And it's him already knowing what it takes to get

104
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 2: back from this and seeing what didn't work for him.

105
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 2: So I would say we're not surprised. But also if

106
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 2: I had seen him struggle at the gate, I wouldn't

107
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 2: have been surprised either, based off coming off in major

108
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 2: knee in major knee surgery.

109
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,640
Speaker 1: Now, well it's lso only a few games, So let's

110
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:00,839
Speaker 1: let's let's you got I let this play out, right,

111
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: KiB Like everyone can come back for a couple games

112
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 1: and be hobby like, Oh, look at what he's done.

113
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,719
Speaker 1: But let's let's see how he does thirty fifty sixty,

114
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 1: you know, eighty games into it where he's at. But

115
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 1: I mean, listen, he's one of the best players. He's

116
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 1: one of the most talented players. He brings an energy

117
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,680
Speaker 1: like very few guys doing baseball. So let's see where

118
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:18,160
Speaker 1: it ends up.

119
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 3: There's this game speed that's different too. You can rehab

120
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:23,279
Speaker 3: your way all the way you want, but you're also

121
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 3: giving days off, planned days of rest and stuff like that.

122
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,039
Speaker 3: So let's keep seeing how this body and this knee responds.

123
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 3: After five, six, seven straight games in a row.

124
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:33,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a little bit of a game. Obviously, he's

125
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,600
Speaker 2: gonna want to talk himself into the lineup as much

126
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,239
Speaker 2: as possible. He's a guy that likes to be out there,

127
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,280
Speaker 2: so we'll see how that goes. Brian Snicker's known him

128
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,160
Speaker 2: for a long time, so you would think he'll have

129
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 2: no problem being like Nope, sorry, today's the day you sit.

130
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 2: That's what the medical staff says. One other part from

131
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:53,119
Speaker 2: this weekend, did you see the comments aj from Brian

132
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 2: Snicker about the field conditions and how that could be

133
00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 2: leading to some issues for Austin Reiley over at Third Bay?

134
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 2: Did you see that Mark Bowman tweeted about it.

135
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 1: It's kind of funny.

136
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 2: Though, you want to see this all right? So they

137
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:11,839
Speaker 2: were at home, right, Yeah, but that's his own.

138
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 1: Groundskeeper under the bus, the guy who's been there forever. Like,

139
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 1: That's where it gets a little weird to me. They're like,

140
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:18,719
Speaker 1: why would you throw your own guy under the bus?

141
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:22,160
Speaker 2: Well, Mark Bowman, who covers the team for MLB, did

142
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 2: clarify that he was talking more about field conditions than

143
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 2: grounds crew, but the tweet initially from Bowman is Snicker

144
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:33,040
Speaker 2: made it clear he wasn't happy with the Braves grounds crew,

145
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 2: and then that was later clarified to Braves field conditions

146
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,839
Speaker 2: at home. When asked about Riley's recent areas, he said, quote,

147
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:41,719
Speaker 2: I don't think it's all on him if you want

148
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 2: to know the truth. Four of the five errors Riley

149
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 2: has committed going back to May eighth have occurred at

150
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,679
Speaker 2: truest park a j that's their park.

151
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:58,359
Speaker 1: Here's one that's a tough play. Shot football smashed. That

152
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 1: one's tough, wiener, that's a tweet or right, he's got

153
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 1: to come and get it or back up. I mean

154
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,720
Speaker 1: now that one he just whiffs. I mean, that's wine

155
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 1: people do that. Bill Bucker did that. That one. It takes.

156
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,240
Speaker 1: It looks like he took a bad hop on him, right,

157
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean those.

158
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 3: Two of those were hit hard. Two of those were

159
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 3: just shots, and it's a reaction. It's a hot corner

160
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 3: for a reason. Some of the other ones, I don't know.

161
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 3: It's you got other guys playing there who aren't making

162
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 3: the airs. These are plays that are expected to be

163
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 3: made that he normally makes all the time. I think

164
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 3: to just say it's the ground screw or the field.

165
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 3: Don't love the look of it. Don't love the sound

166
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 3: of it either. I don't know if and because keep

167
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 3: in mind, this is your home field, your own ground screw.

168
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 3: If you want something change, you have a relationship with

169
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 3: the ground screw, you can go and change it. You

170
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 3: can go and ask him to be like, hey, can

171
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 3: we get a little flatter here, can we mow down

172
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 3: the grass a little bit this way, like there's this

173
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 3: is your team, this is your organization. They're there to

174
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 3: help you. So I just don't like the look of

175
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 3: maybe kind of throwing them under the bus or blaming

176
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 3: the field. But again, some those aren't Some of those

177
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 3: are just hard hit balls too that are hard to make.

178
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 3: The playoff.

179
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 2: Crats, my pupp was picky, not anymore with spotent Tango unkibble,

180
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 2: and it is about forty percent less expensive than frozen food.

181
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 2: So we're saving in the wallet and we're making our

182
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 2: pups happier.

183
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 3: Let's go apples to apples. I'm not cheap, but I

184
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 3: don't want to waste my money on something that's good

185
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 3: for my dog. This is perfect.

186
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, they are very excited, both Bella crats Is pup

Speaker 2: and Penelope my little pup. For spot En Tango, you

Speaker 2: can get your pup excited too, and there's no more

189
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,319
Speaker 2: guessing how much to feed your dog either. Spot and

197
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 2: Best Maddox ever if you know what I'm talking about.

198
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:23,440
Speaker 2: It's one hundred pitches or less to pull off a

199
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 2: complete game. The Greg Maddocks and Trek Scougle pulled it

200
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 2: off with the highest strikeout total in a Maddox complete game.

201
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 2: A shoutout for him thirteen strikeouts and aj he went

202
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,400
Speaker 2: one oh three because I round up from one oh

203
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 2: two point six on his last pitch of the day

204
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,440
Speaker 2: and that was the hardest pitch he's ever thrown in

205
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,559
Speaker 2: his major league career. I mean, the dude is topping

206
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 2: what he did last year. At the moment, I know,

207
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 2: we still have a lot of season left to go.

208
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 2: He's probably at about a third of the starts that

209
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 2: he's going to make. He's on a better pace.

210
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's He's the best pitcher going right now. Best

211
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:04,680
Speaker 1: part of this whole thing, besides him throwing a complete

212
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,199
Speaker 1: game shut out, was when he threw the last pitch

213
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,400
Speaker 1: the way he just stood there and took it all in. Right,

214
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 1: he threw it, and he was just like, I'm the man,

215
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 1: and he just let the like when he throws this

216
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 1: last pitch and he just ends it and then he

217
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,439
Speaker 1: just looks around at the crowd and the crowd's chanting

218
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 1: his name and going crazy the whole deal. One of

219
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 1: the best things that's come out of Terrek School being

220
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 1: Good is we get to see Trek Scooble's personality and

221
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 1: all he does and when he talks a little trash

222
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,720
Speaker 1: and he's having fun and doing all these things. I mean,

223
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 1: it's it's just amazing what this guy has become from

224
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 1: an off injured guy to the best pitcher in baseball

225
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 1: right here watching he strikes it and he just stands

226
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 1: there and he like takes it all in. It's just

227
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 1: it's just awesome. It's awesome.

228
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 3: I mean, you're getting close to a twenty mile an

229
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 3: hour difference on some of his pitches when he goes

230
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:51,839
Speaker 3: from one to two to it looked like almost eighty

231
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 3: two on one of those sliders or curveballs that he

232
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,680
Speaker 3: was just throwing. That's he looks like he's absolutely locked

233
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 3: in and honing his craft right now, and like AJ

234
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,320
Speaker 3: just pointed out, enjoying himself too. He's enjoying pushing himself

235
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 3: to limits and seeing how good he can get right now.

236
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 3: And yeah, I gotta imagine he's one of the best,

237
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 3: if not the best, going right now.

238
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, Aja playing to your point too. I mean he

239
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 2: was emotional with the crowd pumping him up. We have

240
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 2: this tweet with a quote Cody Stavenhagen from Tiger Territory.

241
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,320
Speaker 2: He's following the team every day for the Athletic posted

242
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 2: the quote from Schooble, who said, you get a little

243
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:30,079
Speaker 2: teary eyed out there. Honestly, I just thought to myself,

244
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:34,479
Speaker 2: twelve year old me wouldn't believe there was an opportunity

245
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 2: to have a fan base support you the way it

246
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 2: does and be in that moment. Tigers fans waited for

247
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 2: some success. They almost didn't get it last year as

248
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 2: they made that late run and the highlight of the

249
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 2: first half of the season for Tigers fans was Tarrek Scoogle.

250
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:52,960
Speaker 2: Now they've got a competitive team from front to back,

251
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 2: so they are really loving what they're seeing, and obviously

252
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 2: Schoogles become their guy and He's an ace. He's the

253
00:11:58,160 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 2: best pitcher in baseball right now?

254
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 1: What else do you want? What else do you want?

255
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 1: He's loving it, the crowd's loving it. It's becoming an

256
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:11,960
Speaker 1: event when he pitches in Detroit. Right It's kind of

257
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: like when Orlander used to pitch back in the day.

258
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,800
Speaker 1: It's like, Oh, JV's pitching today, Everyone's got to come

259
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 1: watch him, right, That's what it's become with school It's awesome.

260
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,080
Speaker 1: Detroit's great, they're a great team. But to see the

261
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,319
Speaker 1: fans get behind this team is the best part.

262
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 3: I hated those days.

263
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 2: They're a little above Cleveland right now, I think they

264
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 2: got a five game lead over Cleveland.

265
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,679
Speaker 3: No, but he's he's been the driving force behind a

266
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 3: little bit of this resurgence from Detroit baseball. Right now,

267
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,680
Speaker 3: it is a fun place to play baseball when Detroit

268
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 3: is a good team. They are a great crowd, The

269
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 3: stadium is beautiful. I've always enjoyed it, but there is

270
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,199
Speaker 3: no doubt about it. That's a different day when there

271
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 3: aces on the mountain when it was JV or Price

272
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:55,200
Speaker 3: before or not a school ball they there's probably a

273
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,719
Speaker 3: roughly five to ten thousand difference when he pitches versu

274
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 3: maybe some of the other games, but they show out

275
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 3: in their loud winning pitches. It's a great place, yep,

276
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 3: it is.

277
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know you're watching something special right now with

278
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,720
Speaker 2: Google and Tigers fans are taking advantage. Let's get to

279
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 2: the Angels. So they were riding high. They won eight

280
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 2: games in a row. Now they've lost three games in

281
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:18,079
Speaker 2: a row. They dropped a final two and they lost

282
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:20,559
Speaker 2: that series to the Marlins, and then they fall yesterday

283
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 2: to the Yankees five to one in favor of New York.

284
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:28,880
Speaker 2: Then the Angels before yesterday's game decided to sign up

285
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:32,959
Speaker 2: a man familiar with the area. Chris Taylor moves from

286
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,880
Speaker 2: the Dodgers to the Angels. He was barely playing. He

287
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 2: was barely getting played appearances this season. He really fell

288
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:42,679
Speaker 2: off the map last year. The Todd Dodgers stick stuck

289
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,680
Speaker 2: with him for a while. Kip, So this looks like

290
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,840
Speaker 2: one of those last chance situations for CT three to

291
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 2: see if he actually just needed a change of scenery

292
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 2: and maybe a little more playing time.

293
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 3: I think so. I think it was time. I think

294
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,200
Speaker 3: it was a mutual thing where it's probably better beach

295
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 3: part ways. So I don't think there's any hostility. I

296
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 3: know the fans still like him in the Dodgers' uniform

297
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 3: and stuff like that, but I think it would be

298
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,199
Speaker 3: good for him to get a new environment where it's

299
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 3: like it just does something for you. When you go

300
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:12,679
Speaker 3: somewhere else where you just it's a new faces you're

301
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:14,320
Speaker 3: not It takes you out of your comfort zone. So

302
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 3: you're constantly like checked in, locked in, trying to prove yourself,

303
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 3: trying to making sure you're doing everything right. And this

304
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 3: is a guy who has tons of versatility, can play

305
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:27,360
Speaker 3: Baltimore positions, so he has value. So I think if

306
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 3: there's ever a place that can offer him the opportunity

307
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 3: to move around a little bit and kind of reinvent

308
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:37,240
Speaker 3: himself or like on as a teammer team, this is

309
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 3: a good opportunity for him. It's a good chance, so

310
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 3: he's easy to root for it too.

311
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 2: Do you remember anyone joining Cleveland, for example, and suddenly

312
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 2: turning it on where they hadn't in the past, and

313
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:51,040
Speaker 2: you saw a classic change of scenery case where you're like, hey,

314
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 2: this guy was good, now he's great, or this guy

315
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 2: was bad and now he's good, or he was good

316
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 2: then you know fell off the map and then went

317
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 2: to Cleveland and became good again. Do you remember anyone

318
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 2: that you came across where you could actually like see

319
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 2: the difference in how he was looking playing adjusting?

320
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:12,240
Speaker 3: You had guys, I mean, there's there's gonna be a

321
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,360
Speaker 3: few every year who are new faces, new names that

322
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:16,560
Speaker 3: come in. But I mean, just for my time, I mean,

323
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 3: you had Napoli in twenty sixteen. He comes out and

324
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 3: almost puts out thirty home runs. You had, There was

325
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 3: Mark Reynolds, Brandon Moss. You have some of these first

326
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:27,440
Speaker 3: basemens who come out and start having some good power

327
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 3: years for you. And then there's pictures where I was

328
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 3: about to say, like Andrew Miller just because of the

329
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 3: run he went on, But I think he was good anywhere,

330
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 3: so it didn't really I think. But he was just

331
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 3: so good with us that it's like maybe it was

332
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 3: Cleveland or maybe it was just being in a new place,

333
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:41,760
Speaker 3: but he was phenomenal with every pitch. So I don't

334
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 3: even know if we can count.

335
00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 2: Him, right, I mean, he was on another level though.

336
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 2: That's what I'm talking about, is you moved somewhere else

337
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:50,760
Speaker 2: and it's on another level, right, It's not the comp

338
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 2: to CT three here right now, who had a nice career,

339
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 2: and we'll see if that continues here with the Angels.

340
00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,280
Speaker 2: But also, yeah, the Angels kind of thrust themselves back

341
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 2: into the mix a little bit here, but we'll see

342
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,360
Speaker 2: if they can turn it around. Obviously, it's a long

343
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 2: season full of streaks. Let's get to the Cubs. You're

344
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 2: out in Chicago. How much love are they giving p

345
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 2: Crow Armstrong because he's a lowed player and he does

346
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 2: everything well. It's not like the Cubs just signed to

347
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 2: Kyle or traded for Kyle Tucker and became this good

348
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 2: that helped a ton That was a huge move for them.

349
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 2: They finally were able to pull something like that off.

350
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 2: But P. Crow Armstrong is just as much of a

351
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 2: difference maker right now and might be even more of

352
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 2: an MVP candidate based off how voters go nowadays so

353
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 2: closely attributing everything to war. I mean, he's leading the

354
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 2: category I think in the National League at the moment.

355
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 2: I'll double check it while you're talking.

356
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 3: Listen, there's a there's a there's a buzz around this

357
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 3: Cubs team right now in this city. People are starting

358
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 3: to tune in. I don't think he got off to

359
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 3: the best start, if I remember correctly, the first couple

360
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 3: of weeks, but he has certainly settled in. And I'm

361
00:16:58,200 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 3: even just gonna go and say that he's more of

362
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 3: an player because I don't have the numbers in front

363
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:04,280
Speaker 3: of me, but there was a stat of just how

364
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:08,480
Speaker 3: many runs above replacement he's doing at each part of

365
00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 3: the game, whether it's hitting, defense, and base running, So

366
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:14,439
Speaker 3: in all three facets of this game, he is like

367
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 3: in the top five of every single category or something

368
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,120
Speaker 3: like that. I think only one player has ever done

369
00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 3: one hundred and sixty two game pace of what he's

370
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,040
Speaker 3: on pace for right now. So obviously we'll see if

371
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,840
Speaker 3: he keeps it up for the whole time. But they

372
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:30,800
Speaker 3: are loving him right now. They are rallying behind this team.

373
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 3: Like I said, there's a buzz going in this city.

374
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:35,159
Speaker 3: But I think this guy and the way he plays

375
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:38,080
Speaker 3: and the energy he brings to this lineup every day,

376
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 3: it's what's not to like.

377
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Grand Slam the other day, and he is

378
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:47,959
Speaker 2: leading in both Baseball Reference and Fan Grafts war for

379
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:51,960
Speaker 2: National League position players at the moment at all the

380
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,520
Speaker 2: power speed and actually the RBIs too. I know say

381
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,760
Speaker 2: as Zuki, I believe is leading the National League and RBIs,

382
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 2: but Peter Armstrong's pretty up there. You're gonna have more

383
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,080
Speaker 2: opportunities when you're the Cubs. You're scoring a lot of runs,

384
00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,119
Speaker 2: but you still have to come through. And he's done that,

385
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 2: and he wasn't necessarily looked at as a guy that's

386
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 2: going to drive in one hundred, and I think he's

387
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:11,080
Speaker 2: on that pace right now.

388
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:14,240
Speaker 3: Listen, there's guys who are strictly hitting. There's guys who

389
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,680
Speaker 3: are defensive replacements that get all their war or get

390
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:18,439
Speaker 3: all their kind of stats on just one side of

391
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 3: the game. He is literally a three faceted player right

392
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,240
Speaker 3: now and is excelling at every aspect of the game.

393
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 3: It's really fun to watch when you have these complete

394
00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 3: players played we talked about we talked about Earlieruna who

395
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 3: can do on defense and base running where he literally

396
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 3: helps you win ball games with every single team. Pikrow

397
00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:38,920
Speaker 3: Armstrong has proven to be another one of those type

398
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 3: of players.

399
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, above average, if not elite, at every tool in

400
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:47,879
Speaker 2: every facet. So AJ talking Pikrow Armstrong here, thoughts on

401
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:49,520
Speaker 2: what you've seen from him and how much of an

402
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,439
Speaker 2: impact Obviously, he's made to the Cubs. They expected him

403
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:55,120
Speaker 2: to be good. The Cubs front office was really a name.

404
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 2: Remember he was the acquisition in that Hobby Bayez deal

405
00:18:57,880 --> 00:18:59,480
Speaker 2: that Mets got him for a couple of months that

406
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:03,440
Speaker 2: didn't work out. And PCA looks like a bona fide

407
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 2: superstar right now, even if the bat flows down a

408
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,160
Speaker 2: little bit. AJ No, you're shaking now.

409
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:13,200
Speaker 1: No, listen, here's the thing. Right now, he's the MVP

410
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,200
Speaker 1: of the National League. He's the MVP. I don't care

411
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 1: show hey or not. I don't care. Right now, Pikro

412
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 1: Armstrong is the National League Most Valuable Player. I know

413
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,400
Speaker 1: we're only a few months in, but he is the

414
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,440
Speaker 1: National League most value for me now, again, my opinion

415
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 1: doesn't matter all that much, but for me, right now,

416
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:31,919
Speaker 1: I feel like he is the MVP of the National

417
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:35,480
Speaker 1: League with what he's done offensively defensively, the home runs

418
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:37,080
Speaker 1: he's shit because he's hit a lot of bag home

419
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:39,399
Speaker 1: runs too. Let's not forget not just home runs but

420
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:40,600
Speaker 1: in big situations.

421
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:45,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's been clutched forty eight RBIs. He leads the

422
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 2: team with fourteen home runs. Right now, Cubs fans are

423
00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:52,160
Speaker 2: loving it and for Cubs fans when the team's been

424
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:54,879
Speaker 2: pretty mid the last few years. It's not just that

425
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 2: the team's leading in the division, it's that it's the offense.

426
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,960
Speaker 2: So it's a fun watch for Cubs fans. Wriggly right now,

427
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 2: especially once it gets a little warmer too, right, I mean, Kip,

428
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 2: it's been a few years.

429
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,120
Speaker 3: It has these guys. Listen, these guys are fun to watch.

430
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 3: Like I said, there's a buzz going around ft FAM.

431
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:20,639
Speaker 2: You might have a boring, old, crusty, unpretty razor and

432
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:25,119
Speaker 2: it might be expensive, so aj should they consider another option?

433
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:28,679
Speaker 1: Look how cool this is? Look at the color scheme.

434
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 1: Look at it little sheath, what hide the blades when

Speaker 2: trial set. Hot corner Let's says Mark Kottsee was ejected

448
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 2: and on Sunday in a win over the Phillies. And

449
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,879
Speaker 2: that was the first win for the A's in I

450
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 2: guess what, twelve games. That's not the eleven gamer.

451
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:30,240
Speaker 1: It was their first win in May.

452
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 2: It felt like it. So we're watching the video right now.

453
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 2: Kante gets ejected here Kip and he has to head

454
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:44,919
Speaker 2: to the clubhouse. The thing about the clubhouse is it's

455
00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,399
Speaker 2: not where it is anywhere else. So he does the

456
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:50,399
Speaker 2: classic walk of shame in the minor leagues where he

457
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 2: goes down the left field line to get out of there.

458
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:57,120
Speaker 3: That goes one of two ways. You're either cooled off

459
00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,160
Speaker 3: by the time you get all the way to that corner,

460
00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 3: or you are built up to have some kind of

461
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:04,359
Speaker 3: explosion in your office or something where it's just been

462
00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,400
Speaker 3: building and building with each step and you've just been

463
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 3: muttering stuff under your breath probably until you walk into

464
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:11,879
Speaker 3: that door and then first thing you can grab that

465
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:16,320
Speaker 3: you can lift is just going somewhere. But not ideal,

466
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,720
Speaker 3: not ideal to have your own tirade with the umpire

467
00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,680
Speaker 3: that have to the game on pause while you walk

468
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:27,119
Speaker 3: for three hundred yards out there.

469
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,960
Speaker 1: Only one of only only one of many complaints about

470
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:37,239
Speaker 1: the Oakland Slash Slash whatever else, whatever the hell they

471
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:38,720
Speaker 1: want to call it now over there, But I mean

472
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,640
Speaker 1: it's just one of many many things. I mean, it's

473
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,280
Speaker 1: funny that you have to watch him because I love Katsa.

474
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:46,520
Speaker 1: I played with kat Say. I never really saw him

475
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:48,159
Speaker 1: getting this angry, but to see him do this and

476
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:50,200
Speaker 1: then walk this far, I mean, the best is like

477
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,200
Speaker 1: he's got his head down and he's just like it's

478
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:54,200
Speaker 1: like the kid right when you send him home when

479
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 1: you were a kid, and your kid had to go

480
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:57,919
Speaker 1: home because his mom called him early, and he's like

481
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 1: shuffling along with his hat down, head down, and then

482
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:02,760
Speaker 1: it came, but the game had to wait for him.

483
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,359
Speaker 1: So I mean, so he basically got a little revenge.

484
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,359
Speaker 1: He got a little revenge on the umpires because they

485
00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:09,399
Speaker 1: couldn't do anything until he got all the way up there.

486
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:11,679
Speaker 1: That's what Mark has brought up.

487
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:13,520
Speaker 3: A good thing our our producer here about what if

488
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:15,119
Speaker 3: it was Bochi here And I'm just thinking, like, what

489
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 3: if it was Tito that that got tossed and we'd

490
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 3: have to wait. Tito would literally stand there until cart

491
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 3: got him, and it would probably take the same amount

492
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:24,640
Speaker 3: of time. Not every manager is going to be as

493
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,880
Speaker 3: fleet footed as Cat was on that one. Some guys

494
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:28,159
Speaker 3: would be a rain delay.

495
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,040
Speaker 2: The bullpen cart could get him, but I think remember

496
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,880
Speaker 2: the bullpen cart was broken at one point out there too.

497
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 2: Obviously it's it's fixed now, but it could die down

498
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 2: at any point. We could have a problem where if

499
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:44,440
Speaker 2: it's broken again, a manager who needs a cart might

500
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 2: just stick around. There's nowhere for him to go.

501
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 1: But that would be that would be so awesome. A

502
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,399
Speaker 1: manager gets ejected and they can't start the game till

503
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 1: he leaves, he's like, I pulled my back goes up through.

504
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 1: What if he just went sat What if he went

505
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:04,040
Speaker 1: sat in the first row? Could he kick him out

506
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:06,960
Speaker 1: if he if he went and sat in the front row?

507
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:13,760
Speaker 3: Probably, but that, yeah, it just goes even closer to

508
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:15,359
Speaker 3: the umpire and just go sits right behind him.

509
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:17,240
Speaker 1: Play yeah, right behind him, play in the first row.

510
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 1: It's like you stuck Blue, you did this call, you

511
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 1: missed that call.

512
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,480
Speaker 2: And you'd be like, hey, MLB, sorry, you created this ballpark.

513
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 2: I can't get out of it. So I'm gonna sit

514
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:31,720
Speaker 2: here until you figure it out and unless you want

515
00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:32,359
Speaker 2: to airlift me.

516
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:32,960
Speaker 1: Uh.

517
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:37,000
Speaker 2: Katse did say postgame AJ that he was considering jogging,

518
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,199
Speaker 2: but then thought, Mark, I'll freeze the picture.

519
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,159
Speaker 1: No, I love you. I love your cots, but no,

520
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 1: you're not jogging that far. Dude. You're you're, you're, you're

521
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:46,120
Speaker 1: getting a little up there.

522
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 3: Now you get your time, You get your time.

523
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:52,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, I love your cots, but you know you're not jogging.

524
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:55,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's three hundred and thirty feet. All right, Let's

525
00:24:55,080 --> 00:25:00,160
Speaker 2: get to this obstruction call from over the weekend and

526
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,320
Speaker 2: I'll let you explain it a j since you got

527
00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,639
Speaker 2: inside word Mets and Dodgers were playing. This was actually

528
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,400
Speaker 2: on Friday night, that's when the series they took two

529
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 2: out of three. But what happened here a rarity.

530
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,480
Speaker 1: If you can explain this, I don't know. I don't know. Kip,

531
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,159
Speaker 1: did you ever play third base? Before we get into this.

532
00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 1: Did you ever play third base at all? Oh? Okay,

533
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,399
Speaker 1: so the fly battle is here to hit to. Right now,

534
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,680
Speaker 1: I want you all to see where Max Munsey is standing.

535
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,120
Speaker 1: He's not even in the picture. Right. He gets thrown

536
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 1: out of the play. Mark Tae gets thrown out, great

537
00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 1: throw by ta Oscar. Max Munsey gets called a third

538
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 1: base for obstruction for standing in the runner's way of

539
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,040
Speaker 1: seeing the fly ball being caught. I love you, Trip Gibson,

540
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 1: but this is over umpiring, dude. I'm sorry, it's over umpiring.

541
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:43,960
Speaker 1: If we could have run that just a little bit longer,

542
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 1: you could have seen where Monthsy was standing. He was standing.

543
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:48,919
Speaker 1: The cut at City Field is like ten feet off

544
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:51,440
Speaker 1: the base. He was standing. He just he was by

545
00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:53,840
Speaker 1: the base and he walked away. Now do I know

546
00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:58,120
Speaker 1: third baseman that did this on purpose? One Corey Cosky

547
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:00,760
Speaker 1: used to be a basket ball player in front of

548
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,560
Speaker 1: dude's like never saw a call. There were times where

549
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:05,199
Speaker 1: I had to move the third basement out of the

550
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 1: way because they would just stand there like, hey, I'm

551
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:09,880
Speaker 1: watching the play. Like you can see where months he is.

552
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,800
Speaker 1: He's nowhere close. He's not looking at the guy nothing,

553
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:14,960
Speaker 1: He's just standing there, so I don't know. I thought

554
00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:16,960
Speaker 1: this was a bad call. Then they did look where

555
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,920
Speaker 1: he is. He's like five to seven feet away from him,

556
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:22,080
Speaker 1: not even looking. I mean, did he stand right in

557
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:24,840
Speaker 1: his line? Sure? But come on right, like, come on,

558
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:27,880
Speaker 1: I don't think little games. I love it. I think

559
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:29,560
Speaker 1: it's great. But then they called it on the Mets

560
00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:32,200
Speaker 1: guy too. I've never seen this called once. Forget twice.

561
00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 1: We were joking that on you know, they the umpire

562
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:38,119
Speaker 1: was like, got a text from somebody's like, this is

563
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,240
Speaker 1: a joke. By the way, everybody, I bet you can't

564
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:42,760
Speaker 1: call two obstruction calls on the third basement in one game.

565
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:44,200
Speaker 1: I bet you can't do that.

566
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 3: They they correct me if I'm wrong, but it's like

567
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:50,679
Speaker 3: they almost teach that. They teach you to kind of

568
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:52,359
Speaker 3: and you're right. And it used to be like I

569
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:54,800
Speaker 3: used to have the third basement, whether it was Trevor

570
00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:57,520
Speaker 3: Plue or someone where it's like they're almost looking straight

571
00:26:57,520 --> 00:26:59,880
Speaker 3: at you, like direct eye contact, like trying to get

572
00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:01,440
Speaker 3: in your way, almost so you couldn't see it. But

573
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,159
Speaker 3: as long as they're not like touching you, it's not

574
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:05,720
Speaker 3: You're fine. Months he was way far off. I'm not

575
00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:07,200
Speaker 3: a fan of this call at all. I think it's

576
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 3: part of the game. I think it's a smart play

577
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,680
Speaker 3: as long as it's not a scene that you're like

578
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,919
Speaker 3: like waving your hands trying to block the view. But

579
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,040
Speaker 3: other than that, I thought this one was you can't

580
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 3: start calling this because that's just going to set the

581
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,560
Speaker 3: wrong presidents. It's not that big enough of a play

582
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:25,880
Speaker 3: to make it this important of a call. And that's

583
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:27,040
Speaker 3: a bad call on a run.

584
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 2: Right, that's a run, I mean costing a run. That's

585
00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 2: the crazy part. And the fact that you don't see

586
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:39,439
Speaker 2: this and all of a sudden AJ trip Gibson's just

587
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 2: like today's the day back to the rule book.

588
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 1: It's almost like somebody, somebody dared him. It was like,

589
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 1: you won't call two obstructions, and now once he called

590
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 1: the first one, then he had to call the other

591
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,280
Speaker 1: one on the mets. Right, So once he called the

592
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,879
Speaker 1: first one, he had to be like, okay, makeup call time,

593
00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, come on, But like it's such

594
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,359
Speaker 1: just a random thing to see call. And I talked

595
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,639
Speaker 1: to Max on Saturday about I go, Max, what do

596
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,879
Speaker 1: you got? And he just started laughing. He's like, I

597
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:07,719
Speaker 1: wasn't even looking. He's like, I just was at there

598
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 1: and I walked towards where the throw was not even looking.

599
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:12,760
Speaker 1: He's like, if you watch it, he's not even looking.

600
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,120
Speaker 1: He's looking this way and the guy is behind him.

601
00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:18,640
Speaker 1: So I don't know. I mean, I've tagged up. I've

602
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 1: seen guys try to get in your way all the time.

603
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:22,399
Speaker 1: This was just one of those calls. It was like,

604
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 1: all right, we're gonna make this call and then hope

605
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 1: it sticks. And it did.

606
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:29,000
Speaker 3: He had it on his Bengo card today. Trip Gibson

607
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 3: had it on his Bingo card.

608
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:33,800
Speaker 2: It's gotta be it's crazy times.

609
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:36,280
Speaker 3: Sometimes those days.

610
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 2: It's like you almost would think there was a memo

611
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 2: sent out right, we got that in spring training. Sometimes, hey,

612
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:46,000
Speaker 2: we're gonna really look at this this coming season. I mean,

613
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,560
Speaker 2: it's a random day in late May and all of

614
00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:51,600
Speaker 2: a sudden, one umph just decided to create his own memo.

615
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:56,600
Speaker 2: So it was worth pointing out Todd father and I

616
00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 2: are from Jersey, so we're used to, oh, I got

617
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 2: a guy, But sometimes that just means when I'm looking

618

Speaker 2: for a car, I go to car gurus.

619
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:08,640

00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,840
Speaker 4: communication which we love here in Jersey where we're from,

637
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:16,120

638
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 1: know that was coming? So now I have two things

639
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,480
Speaker 1: that I'm pissed about. This one I didn't even know

640
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,960
Speaker 1: that was coming. That's the same exact thing is where

641
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 1: will Wan go? And we all know where he ended up?

642
00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:27,880
Speaker 1: But now I like that. So now we're going to

643
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,480
Speaker 1: win show When will what is it? When We'll Show Throw?

644
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:33,400
Speaker 2: When Will Show Throw? AJ? So we prepared that, I mean,

645
00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:36,520
Speaker 2: producer lady worked hard this morning and we've been doing

646
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,680
Speaker 2: these updates. People like them. I will say, you can

647
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:41,680
Speaker 2: get pissed about it if you're watching the show right now.

648
00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:44,880
Speaker 2: We're spending three minutes on Showtani update. He is a

649
00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 2: unicorn in our league. Check websites. Go to the MLB section.

650
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 2: There's like two or three stories out of the top

651
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 2: ten usually on show, especially with the pitching rehab. Clearly

652
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 2: people are clicking on it. So add that all up.

653
00:30:57,280 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 2: Where will wand Go was the most popular segment we've

654
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:04,240
Speaker 2: ever had an FT history, no animation that opened it up.

655
00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 1: So much. There's no way that is a true story.

656
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,520
Speaker 2: The eighties sequel follow up When Will Show Throw? So

657
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 2: what's your bone to pick?

658
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:17,480
Speaker 1: Okay, so no, listen, I know he did throw, and

659
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 1: it's not a showhy at all. It's not at all

660
00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 1: but show Hey was supposed to scheduled to is throw

661
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 1: his his live VP at City Field on Saturday. Well,

662
00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:28,880
Speaker 1: because they went thirteen innings, he was tired. He didn't

663
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:32,160
Speaker 1: get to do it. So I texted Dave Roberts, who

664
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:35,080
Speaker 1: was absolutely awesome. I love Doc and I said, listen, Doc,

665
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,520
Speaker 1: if you need somebody to take some live abs off

666
00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:40,640
Speaker 1: Show Hey, I'm available, and he just texted me back.

667
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 1: I think we're good, so listen. I'm not really mad

668
00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:45,480
Speaker 1: at show Hey. I'm a little more mad that Dave

669
00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 1: Roberts didn't want me and he asked. And then when

670
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 1: I did our manager meeting, I said, Dave, you know

671
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:51,080
Speaker 1: I was good to go and I'm ready to go,

672
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,520
Speaker 1: and he said, I don't want to hurt show Hay's feelings.

673
00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:55,400
Speaker 1: I'm like, that's a great point, Dave. I don't want

674
00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:57,920
Speaker 1: to hurt his feelings either. So instead they used like

675
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:02,520
Speaker 1: the trainer and like the third bullpen catcher, and they

676
00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:04,600
Speaker 1: pulled something. They pulled the guy who dumbed milk on

677
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:06,720
Speaker 1: his head Saturday night out there to get it bat.

678
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:08,800
Speaker 1: But I didn't get to get into bats. So it's

679
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:10,960
Speaker 1: not really with Showhy, It's just more with the Dodgers

680
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 1: in general.

681
00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 2: I thought he faced rushing.

682
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,320
Speaker 1: He did face rushing. He didn't want to face righties though.

683
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:19,240
Speaker 1: He didn't want to face rightis, and I said, I'm

684
00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:23,120
Speaker 1: left handed and I haven't retired, so throw me in there.

685
00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 1: Maybe you never know, You never know.

686
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:26,520
Speaker 3: What do you think your time to first would have been?

687
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:29,120
Speaker 1: Who cares? I didn't get paid to run. I got

688
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 1: paid to get knocked.

689
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:34,240
Speaker 2: Got a designated runner for AJ.

690
00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:36,880
Speaker 1: That's right. They would have hitters. They would have had

691
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:38,320
Speaker 1: a guy that standing behind me, and if I got

692
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:40,760
Speaker 1: to hit, the guy would have to run. Oh God,

693
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:41,120
Speaker 1: that go.

694
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:47,720
Speaker 2: Then the trainer can run, so face live hitters. Yeah,

695
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:52,320
Speaker 2: that's the next step. Although on the game broadcast, I

696
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:54,680
Speaker 2: think it was and here we're getting a look at it.

697
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:58,080
Speaker 2: There were probably nine billion people from the Dodgers watching this,

698
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 2: But Dave Roberts told Ken Rosenthal post All Star Break

699
00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:05,600
Speaker 2: he didn't say it as a definite, but that was

700
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:09,560
Speaker 2: the guess. So we're still pretty far away, which sucks

701
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 2: in some cases, but in other cases it's understandable because

702
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,400
Speaker 2: the Dodgers are going to slow play this. He can't

703
00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 2: go down to make rehab appearances. And the positive glass

704
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:23,120
Speaker 2: half full part of this AJA is that we might

705
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:28,760
Speaker 2: have about two more months of when we'll show throw. Yeah,

706
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 2: two more months of this segment, probably about once a week,

707
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:35,480
Speaker 2: because anytime he does something people want to hear about it,

708
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:36,960
Speaker 2: so we're gonna hear about the.

709
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:41,360
Speaker 3: What I'm gonna see a forty bitch ye.

710
00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:43,920
Speaker 1: No see. So I talked to now On did I

711
00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:46,960
Speaker 1: talk to to date. We talked about Doc Dave Roberts.

712
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,520
Speaker 1: But we also I also listen, I got to talk

713
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:52,120
Speaker 1: to Kershaw about this because he was he came in

714
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:53,800
Speaker 1: the dugout. So I talked to Kersh a little bit

715
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:57,680
Speaker 1: about this and and he was like, I'm fascinated by

716
00:33:57,720 --> 00:33:59,680
Speaker 1: this because I don't know how this rehab is gonna

717
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:01,800
Speaker 1: go because it's not a normal rehab, and nobody just

718
00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:04,440
Speaker 1: knows what he's gonna do. But he did bring up

719
00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 1: a good point. They have an extra player because of

720
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:10,320
Speaker 1: show Hey. He's designated as a two way guy, right,

721
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:12,160
Speaker 1: so it doesn't hurt them, So he can go out

722
00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:14,200
Speaker 1: and throw an inning or two at the start of

723
00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:15,880
Speaker 1: a game, and they don't have to lose a pitcher,

724
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:18,319
Speaker 1: right like most other teams would have to lose that

725
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:20,719
Speaker 1: picture because they can only have thirteen pitchers. He's like,

726
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:24,040
Speaker 1: we basically have fourteen pitchers because of show Hay being

727
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:27,279
Speaker 1: designated as a two way guy, so it's a different thing.

728
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,880
Speaker 1: So they're not as hamstrung as other teams would be

729
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:32,560
Speaker 1: if they were trying to rehab a guy like this

730
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:36,200
Speaker 1: like the Dodgers are, because they have an extra basically player,

731
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:38,080
Speaker 1: because show Hay has been designated a two way guy.

732
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:42,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the o tiny role there. So twenty two pitches,

733
00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 2: five played appearances, touch ninety seven And this was what

734
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:51,000
Speaker 2: he did in a similar realm after that first elbow surgery.

735
00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:54,320
Speaker 2: He had that back in October of twenty eighteen. But anyway,

736
00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:56,680
Speaker 2: we got time, and I will say, Kip, it looks

737
00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:59,120
Speaker 2: pretty damn good at the plate. I mean, he is

738
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:02,920
Speaker 2: rehabbing to get back on the mount. But mister leadoff

739
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:06,000
Speaker 2: homer as nineteen on the season, most in baseball.

740
00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:08,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, and let's not lose sight of how much they

741
00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:10,480
Speaker 3: paid this guy, and the part of that was for

742
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 3: him to do both things. So there's no reason to

743
00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:13,920
Speaker 3: rush this. They're going to make sure they build him

744
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,120
Speaker 3: up nice and slow to where he's ready because they

745
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:17,920
Speaker 3: they're not in a rush with how good of a

746
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:31,680
Speaker 3: hitter he's doing at the plate already.

747
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:36,800
Speaker 2: A let's slap. So first off, we got this tweet

748
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:42,759
Speaker 2: from wit Meryfield shown that gnarly finger injury that he

749
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:46,000
Speaker 2: had there. It is so he said, graphic pickbullout. Thanks

750
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:49,520
Speaker 2: for the warning. It's known around the league. Atlanta's dirt

751
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:52,839
Speaker 2: isn't great. Ground's crew is aware. Seemed to work hard

752
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,080
Speaker 2: to try and make adjustments, at least in a little time.

753
00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:57,360
Speaker 2: Would say that he was there, Needless to say, he

754
00:35:57,480 --> 00:36:01,160
Speaker 2: was not a huge fan of the dirt. Can't that

755
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:03,200
Speaker 2: be fixed if that's a real thing. I mean, that's

756
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,920
Speaker 2: helpful to get insight from with their kip, But if

757
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:09,920
Speaker 2: if it's a known thing and they have off seasons,

758
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:13,000
Speaker 2: wasn't there this year? He's talking about what last year?

759
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:15,560
Speaker 3: I mean, that's when it would have to take place.

760
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 3: Though kind of maybe Snicker and Riley have a have

761
00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:22,439
Speaker 3: an actual gripe or something like that. But it needs

762
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 3: to be done in the off season because you're talking

763
00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:28,360
Speaker 3: about taking out the entire each infield, and each stadium

764
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:30,239
Speaker 3: is a different type of dirt almost like there's you

765
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 3: can tell you know which ones. I know White Sox

766
00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:37,239
Speaker 3: had a different one, Detroit's all that, But you're talking

767
00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:40,800
Speaker 3: about replacing the entire infield. That's a long time that

768
00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:42,600
Speaker 3: you got to do it. So that's that's an outfield

769
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,040
Speaker 3: I'm sorry an off season thing.

770
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:48,360
Speaker 1: True.

771
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:50,840
Speaker 3: True, it's a gross stick too, if you want to

772
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:53,560
Speaker 3: go see it on his actual And by the.

773
00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:55,680
Speaker 1: Way, I mean, infielders complain a lot. I mean, listen,

774
00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:57,359
Speaker 1: all the all the home plates and the dirt were

775
00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,040
Speaker 1: the same. You know, I was playing in the dirt

776
00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:02,120
Speaker 1: the whole my career. Never complained one time about how

777
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:05,360
Speaker 1: bad the dirt was. I mean, geez, as Paul Knerko's

778
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:08,759
Speaker 1: old coach used to say, and Kip he used to say,

779
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,640
Speaker 1: there are no bad hops. Move your freaking feet. So

780
00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:12,239
Speaker 1: there you have.

781
00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:14,560
Speaker 3: There's a couple.

782
00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 1: I don't know. I was scared of the ball, so

783
00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:20,200
Speaker 1: I don't really care. I don't know. I tried not

784
00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:22,320
Speaker 1: to go on the infield at all, if at all possible.

785
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:27,959
Speaker 3: So there's right your feet wherek does help your your

786
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:29,960
Speaker 3: hops which ones you get? But there are there's a

787
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:31,960
Speaker 3: couple of land mines always waiting for some infield. Theer's

788
00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:37,919
Speaker 3: at certain places like no land mines around the league. Yeah,

789
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,600
Speaker 3: certainly there's I'm trying to think, I well, I don't

790
00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:43,160
Speaker 3: want to. There's some that just are certain areas where

791
00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:46,759
Speaker 3: that's like I still remember, like ten ft in front

792
00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:49,440
Speaker 3: of a bag at Seattle or wherever it may be.

793
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:52,320
Speaker 3: There's certain ones where it's like there's just some trampoline effects,

794
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:55,160
Speaker 3: just land mines. They wait for it.

795
00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:58,040
Speaker 1: Listen, Kip, you played, you played in the You've played

796
00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:00,400
Speaker 1: in the Golden Age. You didn't play in like Waukee

797
00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:05,400
Speaker 1: County Stadium. Okay, you didn't play Tiger Stadium. Okay, you

798
00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:08,840
Speaker 1: didn't play in Wrigly. You could stand when the old Listen,

799
00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:11,680
Speaker 1: when the old Cages were at Wrigley, before they redid

800
00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:14,080
Speaker 1: the field, you could stand in the outfield and you

801
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:17,320
Speaker 1: could barely see home plate because there was such a drop.

802
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:20,240
Speaker 1: It was so crowned. It was crowned like four foot

803
00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 1: like literally you could stand in the outfield and all

804
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:24,360
Speaker 1: you could see was like this much of the hitter.

805
00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:27,640
Speaker 1: It was. It was crazy how crowned the infield was.

806
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:30,280
Speaker 1: Like when you were running off the infield, you would drop.

807
00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:32,279
Speaker 1: You would have to your heart rate would change because

808
00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:33,200
Speaker 1: you dropped so far down.

809
00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:35,880
Speaker 3: It was crazy. That's wild. And I'm saying there are

810
00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:37,960
Speaker 3: some lips, and there are some land mines, and there

811
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:42,279
Speaker 3: are some changes that could be made. But I have

812
00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:44,879
Speaker 3: to follow it up, is you're playing a big league

813
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:48,040
Speaker 3: stadium it's the nicest fields in the world. Basically like that,

814
00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 3: it's not gonna get much better. So they're they're beautiful.

815
00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:55,960
Speaker 2: So all right, let me give you one more here

816
00:38:55,960 --> 00:39:00,719
Speaker 2: and slap Daniel Bard trying to make a comeback. He's

817
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:03,719
Speaker 2: already done that, trying to do it again, thrown in

818
00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:06,440
Speaker 2: front of some scouts. I mean, with the way pitching

819
00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:11,000
Speaker 2: injuries work these days, you've got a shot. You know, bart.

820
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:13,880
Speaker 1: Toronto hasn't signed him, Colorado hasn't signed him already. I

821
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 1: mean I figured they would have already signed him.

822
00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:18,560
Speaker 2: I don't think he wants to go back there, just

823
00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:21,040
Speaker 2: why they were great to him.

824
00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:23,080
Speaker 1: They brought him back and they signed him to like

825
00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 1: multiple contracts.

826
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:29,680
Speaker 2: They did, they did, but eventually course fields and maybe

827
00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:33,399
Speaker 2: some age got to him right at the finish line there.

828
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:37,560
Speaker 2: So he's forty, he's trying to keep kicking. I mean,

829
00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:39,719
Speaker 2: there's Daniel Bard and David Robertson.

830
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:42,600
Speaker 3: There's always some part of you that's like there's different

831
00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:44,960
Speaker 3: levels of a comeback for where you watch it from

832
00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:47,040
Speaker 3: as a third party perspective, where it's like you're rooting

833
00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:51,040
Speaker 3: for them. It's either let it go or rooting for him.

834
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:54,440
Speaker 3: He's been he's so far, he's forty nowt like it's

835
00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:57,520
Speaker 3: it's past the let it go. You're just rooting for him.

836
00:39:57,560 --> 00:40:01,000
Speaker 3: If he's obviously been committed, he's been trying. Everybody knows

837
00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:04,080
Speaker 3: his past stories and so he's done it once, so

838
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:05,960
Speaker 3: who who has anybody to say that he can't do

839
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:06,440
Speaker 3: it again?

840
00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:11,080
Speaker 2: I agreed that's true. And also I mentioned David Roverson.

841
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:13,319
Speaker 2: He actually should be pitching in the Biggs right now.

842
00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:16,120
Speaker 2: He just hasn't signed, So we'll see if that. If

843
00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:19,359
Speaker 2: that happens, I'll try to get to one or two

844
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:23,280
Speaker 2: questions here to get caught up. By the way, we

845
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:26,319
Speaker 2: talked to Chris Catillo AJ, but we really didn't go

846
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:28,399
Speaker 2: over it ourselves too much. What do you think about

847
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:32,360
Speaker 2: the Red Sox losing Bregman? Here comes Meyer, maybe Roman

848
00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:35,400
Speaker 2: Anthony soon. How do you feel about this team because

849
00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:40,080
Speaker 2: they're underperforming compared to projection models? And I would say

850
00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:41,640
Speaker 2: most of the industry.

851
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:44,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, including me who picked him to win the AL.

852
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:46,960
Speaker 1: They gotta win with crochet pitch as they lost yesterday

853
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:49,720
Speaker 1: right when he pitched, that was a big one. Chario

854
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:55,640
Speaker 1: took him deep leading off the game for the brew crew. Honestly,

855
00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:57,799
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's like it's like every day. It's

856
00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:00,640
Speaker 1: kind of what Chris said, I and I Alex cor

857
00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:02,359
Speaker 1: a lot, and I love this team. And I love

858
00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:04,480
Speaker 1: Craig Breslow. I played with him in the Red Sox

859
00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:07,960
Speaker 1: with the Red Sox. But there's just so much drama.

860
00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:11,360
Speaker 1: It's just every day there is some new drama. And

861
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:13,359
Speaker 1: that's why I asked the question of Chris that I did,

862
00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:16,319
Speaker 1: is if they have Campbell there, they have Meyer there,

863
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:18,520
Speaker 1: and then they bring up Anthony, are they counting on

864
00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:21,240
Speaker 1: this team being really good with three rookies in the lineup.

865
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:25,200
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean they need Crochet's been good,

866
00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:28,040
Speaker 1: Bueller's been okay, but the rest of the starting rotation

867
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:31,279
Speaker 1: has been and the bullpen's been and I mean there's

868
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:37,200
Speaker 1: just drama, it seems like every single day with this team.

869
00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:41,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, they need, you know, more of the young pups

870
00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:43,360
Speaker 2: to really step up here. We'll see what Meyer looks like.

871
00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:46,680
Speaker 2: But I'm with you, man, I mean, nothing gets past

872
00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:52,600
Speaker 2: anyone up in Boston right now. But kipn fairness, communication

873
00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:56,000
Speaker 2: lines have been weird, you know, I don't know, nobody

874
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:58,520
Speaker 2: can totally point their finger on what's going on. There,

875
00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:01,160
Speaker 2: but no matter what you think Dever should be doing,

876
00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:04,000
Speaker 2: the way that they've communicated with him is insane. And

877
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:09,359
Speaker 2: then it seems like Cora and Breslow or some type

878
00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:13,440
Speaker 2: of manager slash and then versus front office situation occurs

879
00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:15,759
Speaker 2: and it's a debate, which is fine and healthy, but

880
00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:18,440
Speaker 2: it seems to spill into the media. So you've got

881
00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:19,880
Speaker 2: a lot going on there. I know we only have

882
00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:22,279
Speaker 2: thirty seconds, but it's just a lot going on.

883
00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:25,120
Speaker 3: Like AJ said, you can have three rookies up there

884
00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:27,680
Speaker 3: and be in a playoff race, but to be counting

885
00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:31,040
Speaker 3: on them is a different thing. You're asking a lot

886
00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:33,360
Speaker 3: of three guys who have never been there before and

887
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:35,080
Speaker 3: trying to make it on their own too, So that's

888
00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:37,200
Speaker 3: a whole different ballgame for them.

889
00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:42,560
Speaker 2: Yep, exactly. All right, We will see everyone tomorrow. Hopefully

890
00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:45,040
Speaker 2: we'll be back up and running with normal cams and

891
00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:47,719
Speaker 2: all that. AJ and me are down here in Florida. Kid,

892
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:48,800
Speaker 2: Great to see you man.

893
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:50,239
Speaker 3: Likewise, boys, missed you.

894
00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:51,799
Speaker 2: Yes, you too.
