Krats has gotcha at foul Territory shop 0:00:28.000 --> 0:00:32.680 dot com, model it shore bombs, Love it guys. Before 0:00:32.720 --> 0:00:34.720 we dive into the top story, we got to give 0:00:34.720 --> 0:00:36.920 some love to a mister Jacob de Grom, who picked 0:00:37.000 --> 0:00:40.720 up his two thousandth career strikeout last night big win 0:00:41.280 --> 0:00:44.920 Rangers over the Nationals Titus season high with ten punchies. 0:00:44.920 --> 0:00:48.440 He also became the second fastest pitcher in MLB history 0:00:48.520 --> 0:00:51.920 to get to that two thousand career strikeout mark, behind 0:00:52.280 --> 0:00:54.920 just one Randy Johnson. He did it in two hundred 0:00:54.920 --> 0:00:58.000 and sixty two games, de Grom in two seventy two. 0:00:58.600 --> 0:01:01.440 Kratsy your thoughts on de Gram's performance. 0:01:01.120 --> 0:01:04.440 Last night, I mean career high ten punches, like, I 0:01:04.480 --> 0:01:07.800 feel like he's taking advantage of a NAT's team that 0:01:08.240 --> 0:01:11.280 can't really hit, and he shut him down, so he 0:01:11.440 --> 0:01:13.479 still got it. At a one hundred and three years 0:01:13.480 --> 0:01:16.680 old at thirty eight years old to groam doing it. 0:01:16.840 --> 0:01:23.080 Congrats Josh, what you got any thoughts on mister de Grom? 0:01:24.520 --> 0:01:27.240 Yeah, huge congrats. It's a milestone that not a lot 0:01:27.280 --> 0:01:29.399 of people will get to even think about. And this guy, 0:01:29.520 --> 0:01:32.280 you know, probably could have done in about six years 0:01:32.280 --> 0:01:35.520 prior minus injuries. But you're still a great accomplishment. Keep 0:01:35.560 --> 0:01:37.240 your cat. I am proud to say I am not 0:01:37.360 --> 0:01:40.839 one of the two thousand, so huge congrats to Jacob. 0:01:42.200 --> 0:01:43.679 It's like you knew what I was going to ask you. 0:01:43.720 --> 0:01:47.160 I think it's worth noting guys. Jacob de Grom decided 0:01:47.200 --> 0:01:49.000 to he didn't want to wave his no trade cause 0:01:49.040 --> 0:01:51.480 wanted to stay in Arlington try to win with the Rangers. 0:01:51.480 --> 0:01:54.040 So we love to see that once again at big 0:01:54.080 --> 0:01:56.560 congratulations for one of the games, the greatest. 0:01:56.240 --> 0:01:59.400 On the mound. Speaking of the mound, let's charge a mound. 0:02:00.920 --> 0:02:02.280 Let's charge them about. 0:02:05.880 --> 0:02:06.240 All right? 0:02:06.280 --> 0:02:09.560 We have yet another update in the Katel Marte saga. 0:02:09.600 --> 0:02:13.079 It's pretty much been the main storyline all week. D 0:02:13.240 --> 0:02:16.800 Backs GM, Mike Hasen, manager Tory Leavello, Katel Marte and 0:02:16.840 --> 0:02:21.320 his agent had a productive conversation yesterday, as described by 0:02:21.600 --> 0:02:24.359 Mike Hasen, Martes will be shifted to the ten day 0:02:24.400 --> 0:02:27.519 il Guys. He is expected to rejoin the Diamondbacks and 0:02:27.600 --> 0:02:31.200 once healthy. This is per uh diamondbackspeet reporter Nick Pikoro 0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:33.840 does a great job covering that team. The MRI showed 0:02:33.840 --> 0:02:36.920 some inflammation of the upper hamstring and the knee. However, 0:02:37.120 --> 0:02:41.239 the d Backs president and CEO Derek Hall expects explanations 0:02:41.280 --> 0:02:45.000 and apologies from Katel Marte. Josh Reddick, I believe you 0:02:45.040 --> 0:02:47.320 have some thoughts about this cool Kotel Marte situation. 0:02:48.520 --> 0:02:50.560 Yeah, I mean, where do we even start with this? 0:02:50.560 --> 0:02:53.280 This is this is just bad look, just a bad 0:02:53.320 --> 0:02:55.280 look over all. I mean, you ghost your team, you 0:02:55.320 --> 0:02:57.720 don't show up and then you don't talk to anybody 0:02:57.760 --> 0:02:59.919 for what a couple of days. It just makes you 0:03:00.200 --> 0:03:02.600 look bad and it makes your teammates, you know, kind 0:03:02.600 --> 0:03:05.880 of rethink the process of how we can view things 0:03:06.200 --> 0:03:09.080 and and view you. You know, like you said, it 0:03:09.120 --> 0:03:10.919 shows you don't carry about your team, You don't cary 0:03:10.919 --> 0:03:13.240 about your teammates. We read all the time how he 0:03:13.280 --> 0:03:15.640 and Tory Levello had this great relationship and then you 0:03:15.720 --> 0:03:18.240 go to your your manager. So I'm not buying into 0:03:18.280 --> 0:03:20.440 that either. So it's just all oro ount bad look 0:03:20.520 --> 0:03:23.600 for me. And you talk about distractions in baseball, this 0:03:23.639 --> 0:03:26.880 is a huge distraction for everybody, for your teammates, for 0:03:26.919 --> 0:03:29.040 your managers, and for your coaching staff, and even running 0:03:29.040 --> 0:03:31.239 all the way up to your ownership in front office. 0:03:32.120 --> 0:03:35.040 Josh, how about the fact that he he Tory Leavello 0:03:35.800 --> 0:03:38.640 came out and was like, there's nothing wrong with this guy. 0:03:38.640 --> 0:03:41.800 This guy is a great teammate earlier this year, after 0:03:41.880 --> 0:03:44.200 the stuff had happened, after all this stuff, So not 0:03:44.240 --> 0:03:46.360 only did they put on the front that I have 0:03:46.400 --> 0:03:49.000 a great relationship all that stuff, and they may have 0:03:49.160 --> 0:03:52.840 a relationship, a great relationship, I don't know. It feels 0:03:52.880 --> 0:03:55.320 like a one way street, which sometimes is a manager 0:03:55.640 --> 0:03:59.360 with superstars, it is a one way street. But Josh, 0:03:59.560 --> 0:04:02.480 I have to ask you, because you were a gold Glover, 0:04:02.880 --> 0:04:05.320 you won a World Series, all this stuff, you were 0:04:05.680 --> 0:04:08.560 an upper achalon player, was there ever a time where 0:04:08.600 --> 0:04:09.160 you were like. 0:04:11.320 --> 0:04:13.600 Just not just not coming to the park today? 0:04:14.840 --> 0:04:19.839 No, no, no, I mean this is what I dreamed 0:04:19.880 --> 0:04:22.000 of doing every day in my life. I look forward 0:04:22.040 --> 0:04:24.720 to going to the ballpark every day, whether it was 0:04:25.040 --> 0:04:27.920 you know, coming up with Boston, going to Oakland, going 0:04:27.960 --> 0:04:30.279 to you know, even the Dodgers and everywhere. You're in 0:04:30.320 --> 0:04:32.200 a big league stadium, getting to play a big league 0:04:32.200 --> 0:04:34.359 baseball game every day of your life for your job. 0:04:34.680 --> 0:04:37.000 I looked forward to getting up to go to the ballpark. 0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:38.839 Whether we had a good chance of winning or losing, 0:04:38.880 --> 0:04:41.240 it didn't matter. Man, put me in the lineup. I 0:04:41.279 --> 0:04:45.000 get to do this because as we learn, this happens quick, 0:04:45.720 --> 0:04:47.880 you're going to turn around in five years and look 0:04:47.920 --> 0:04:50.080 back and go, Man, that career happened fast, and I 0:04:50.120 --> 0:04:52.200 could wish I could have done so many things differently. 0:04:54.200 --> 0:04:57.239 You know, guys, it's one thing if this happened once, 0:04:57.320 --> 0:04:59.880 which is bad enough, but this has now become a pattern. 0:05:00.279 --> 0:05:02.800 Tell Marty and you're looking I'll start with you, Kratzy. 0:05:02.800 --> 0:05:05.400 You're looking at this Dbacks team that's right in the 0:05:05.440 --> 0:05:07.680 thick of it. Come September, they're going to be in 0:05:07.720 --> 0:05:10.040 the mix for that NL wild card. And you have 0:05:10.120 --> 0:05:13.839 to wonder, how is this impacting the clubhouse because we 0:05:13.880 --> 0:05:16.039 don't know when Marte is coming back, and this is 0:05:16.040 --> 0:05:17.960 a team that needs him. He's one of their best 0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:20.839 players in the stretch. Run Krats, what do you think 0:05:20.839 --> 0:05:22.320 about the inner workings of this. 0:05:22.320 --> 0:05:26.520 Dynamic, there's I feel like I need to like really 0:05:26.600 --> 0:05:31.120 concisely make my points. There is no better second baseman 0:05:31.680 --> 0:05:35.359 in the game, let alone on the Diamondbacks. I get it, 0:05:35.400 --> 0:05:37.760 he's not having a great year, but he can catch 0:05:37.800 --> 0:05:40.880 when he is hot. He can carry a team for 0:05:40.960 --> 0:05:45.200 a two week stretch that maybe nobody in the league 0:05:45.240 --> 0:05:47.520 can carry because he bats from the right side with 0:05:47.600 --> 0:05:49.360 power and he bats from the left side with power. 0:05:49.360 --> 0:05:53.840 He has speed, so you're not going to replace the 0:05:53.960 --> 0:05:58.320 possibility of production. But also all this distraction when he 0:05:58.360 --> 0:06:03.360 comes back from this just horrific knee inflammation that he's 0:06:03.440 --> 0:06:06.680 dealing with. When he comes back from this, they're going 0:06:06.720 --> 0:06:08.880 to look at him and go, we got can tell 0:06:08.880 --> 0:06:11.200 Marte back in the lineup whether or they're you're not 0:06:11.200 --> 0:06:13.080 gonna sit there in the seventh inning with him up 0:06:13.120 --> 0:06:16.159 at the plate and go, man, I can't believe he 0:06:16.200 --> 0:06:19.000 didn't show up to the park. You know, there'd be 0:06:19.040 --> 0:06:20.680 times when he you know, he makes it out and 0:06:20.680 --> 0:06:23.880 you're like, oh right, this guy again. But in the moment, 0:06:24.000 --> 0:06:26.880 you're like, we have the one of the best options 0:06:26.960 --> 0:06:28.720 year in and year out. This guy is a top 0:06:28.760 --> 0:06:34.920 three top five MVP finisher, not candidate finisher in the voting. 0:06:35.080 --> 0:06:37.279 So yes, I know he's having a down year, but 0:06:43.560 --> 0:06:44.760 better with him in the lineup. 0:06:48.040 --> 0:06:53.040 That's right, Josh, there one game back on the wild card. 0:06:53.400 --> 0:06:56.080 Like you know I just mentioned, there's how distracting this is. 0:06:56.120 --> 0:06:58.800 Like you guys are in a playoff race right now, 0:06:59.120 --> 0:07:00.640 and then you throw this on you. We're about to 0:07:00.640 --> 0:07:04.520 start September baseball when baseball gets really put under the 0:07:04.520 --> 0:07:07.520 magnifying glass, and this is the last thing any of 0:07:07.520 --> 0:07:09.120 your teammates, why it should be the last thing that 0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:12.080 you want to bring upon your team. And you know, 0:07:12.160 --> 0:07:14.360 if you don't care, then then come out and say 0:07:14.400 --> 0:07:16.400 that and don't play. Don't just try to hide behind 0:07:16.440 --> 0:07:17.760 excuses if that is your case. 0:07:19.320 --> 0:07:21.160 Hey, for those of you that are on your phone, 0:07:21.160 --> 0:07:23.360 it's very often, or even if you don't use it much, 0:07:24.160 --> 0:07:26.120 you should check out your wireless bill and make sure 0:07:26.120 --> 0:07:29.800 that it is treating you well.

We've always 0:08:25.800 --> 0:08:30.560 had distractions. I feel like the distraction is pregame in 0:08:30.560 --> 0:08:31.040 the game. 0:08:31.480 --> 0:08:35.920 I don't care if somebody's growing a third arm on 0:08:35.960 --> 0:08:36.400 your team. 0:08:36.520 --> 0:08:38.960 During the game, I don't feel like it's as much 0:08:39.000 --> 0:08:41.920 of a distraction, but pregame, no, how much do you 0:08:42.000 --> 0:08:45.040 think it is a distraction because now as teammates have 0:08:45.120 --> 0:08:47.120 to answer questions for a guy that they're like, I 0:08:47.160 --> 0:08:49.120 don't know, like I'm trying to get ready for the game. 0:08:50.400 --> 0:08:52.520 Yeah, I mean, we know how much the media world 0:08:52.600 --> 0:08:55.560 loves getting in those questions. So I mean you bring 0:08:55.600 --> 0:08:58.560 on on one of you know, media attention for other guys, 0:08:59.559 --> 0:09:01.199 you know, for me, if I'm looking at it from 0:09:01.200 --> 0:09:04.000 my perspective, like I'm not trying to even hang around 0:09:04.000 --> 0:09:05.920 this guy. If that was the case, Like, I don't 0:09:05.920 --> 0:09:08.320 want to be around you. You're bringing negative vibes to everything. 0:09:08.679 --> 0:09:10.120 I'm not gonna go to the cage at the same 0:09:10.120 --> 0:09:11.560 time as you. If you're in the food room, I'll 0:09:11.600 --> 0:09:13.600 grab my food and go somewhere else because it just 0:09:14.040 --> 0:09:16.840 it creates bad chemistry. And we know what it takes 0:09:16.880 --> 0:09:19.079 to win baseball games and win a World Series. It's 0:09:19.120 --> 0:09:21.160 not just talent skill. It has to be a good 0:09:21.200 --> 0:09:24.719 clubhouse vibe, and I highly doubt that's the case right 0:09:24.720 --> 0:09:26.480 now with all this stuff floating around. What it was 0:09:26.520 --> 0:09:29.400 like beforehand, I'll have no clue, But just think about 0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:32.280 that bad chemistry. It brings from the locker room to 0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:34.560 the you know, the batting cages, to the training room 0:09:34.559 --> 0:09:36.760 to everywhere. You're looking at this guy and you're going, man, 0:09:37.760 --> 0:09:39.240 I can't look at this guy in any way I 0:09:39.320 --> 0:09:41.720 used to anymore. So it brings that distracted But you're right, 0:09:41.720 --> 0:09:43.280 I think once you get into that baseball game, I 0:09:43.320 --> 0:09:44.560 think everything goes out the window. 0:09:45.720 --> 0:09:48.840 You played with him for a quick second and twenty 0:09:49.160 --> 0:09:50.959 one right at the end of your career, kind of 0:09:51.000 --> 0:09:54.559 at the beginning, yep, what was your interaction? How long 0:09:54.600 --> 0:09:56.000 did you play with them? Even because I saw you 0:09:56.040 --> 0:09:57.800 only had a few at bats. 0:09:58.040 --> 0:09:59.439 I think I was probably I think I was around 0:09:59.559 --> 0:10:02.839 maybe cl to two months, give or take. Didn't you 0:10:02.880 --> 0:10:04.640 really get to know a lot of guys that will 0:10:05.559 --> 0:10:09.319 But I mean, you talk about a great player, fantastic 0:10:09.320 --> 0:10:10.880 player when he was healthy. Back then, I know he 0:10:10.920 --> 0:10:13.079 was having some hamstring issues, so he had a lot 0:10:13.120 --> 0:10:15.480 of times where he get those starts and they have 0:10:15.559 --> 0:10:16.880 to come out, and you felt bad for the guy. 0:10:16.920 --> 0:10:19.360 But I didn't get any really bad vibe swimming back then. 0:10:19.400 --> 0:10:21.040 But then again, like I said, I wasn't that close 0:10:21.080 --> 0:10:23.520 to him, So I didn't. I definitely didn't see any 0:10:23.559 --> 0:10:25.480 of this kind of stuff coming out of a player 0:10:25.559 --> 0:10:25.880 like that. 0:10:28.880 --> 0:10:31.000 Yeah, you guys, you just have to wonder is this 0:10:31.040 --> 0:10:34.080 something that the d Backs clubhouse, when Slash if Marte 0:10:34.120 --> 0:10:36.240 comes back, can overcome And you know, in the middle 0:10:36.240 --> 0:10:38.080 of September when they expect to be right in it 0:10:38.120 --> 0:10:40.720 with the Padres, the Phillies, you know, not even the 0:10:40.720 --> 0:10:44.040 Cardinals still kind of hanging around. Can they overcome what 0:10:44.120 --> 0:10:46.680 has just become really taken away from the good baseball 0:10:46.720 --> 0:10:48.720 they've been playing and what should have been like a 0:10:48.840 --> 0:10:52.560 very fun September uh September run for these guys. Again, 0:10:52.679 --> 0:10:56.360 just one game out of that wild card picture for 0:10:56.440 --> 0:10:57.560 more das content. 0:10:57.720 --> 0:11:00.600 Yes, all right again it's the d Back content. 0:11:01.040 --> 0:11:03.040 One thing I was thinking about the day he goes 0:11:03.080 --> 0:11:04.959 to the team, the day he was just like, I'm 0:11:05.000 --> 0:11:07.160 not gonna show up. I don't know if you guys heard, 0:11:07.240 --> 0:11:10.760 but Nolan Ernado, I think he was supposed to DH. 0:11:11.120 --> 0:11:13.520 Here's where the team aspect comes in. 0:11:14.360 --> 0:11:18.400 I think Nolan was dealing with something and they weren't 0:11:18.520 --> 0:11:22.400 sure where he was gonna be with it. When guys, 0:11:22.800 --> 0:11:25.880 when every day guys check out of the lineup, or 0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:28.720 you know, don't want to play, or don't show up 0:11:28.880 --> 0:11:32.800 or ghost you you know, in Kutel's case, other guys 0:11:32.840 --> 0:11:36.360 like it changes other guys' rhythms and timing and everything. 0:11:36.679 --> 0:11:40.560 Nolan Ernado's playing through something, as most players are in August, 0:11:40.880 --> 0:11:43.520 playing through something. If he has to play a few 0:11:43.520 --> 0:11:47.040 extra games at third base when he was gonna get 0:11:47.080 --> 0:11:50.440 a break, get off his feet and dh you know, 0:11:50.679 --> 0:11:52.800 if somebody else gets hurt during this time, I'm not 0:11:52.840 --> 0:11:55.079 saying you can blame one hundred percent on could tell, 0:11:56.080 --> 0:12:00.240 but this is a team sport played by a team, 0:12:00.280 --> 0:12:02.880 played by individuals who need to figure out how to 0:12:02.880 --> 0:12:06.440 stay healthy all collectively. And when this happens, it's not 0:12:06.600 --> 0:12:09.000 just a singular well you know, he's out of the lineup. 0:12:09.200 --> 0:12:11.920 It affects other guys. Aeronauto's up there in age, he's 0:12:11.960 --> 0:12:13.640 probably one of the. 0:12:13.280 --> 0:12:14.240 Leaders on the team. 0:12:15.240 --> 0:12:19.960 Is his inability to step into another spot because Catel's 0:12:20.000 --> 0:12:25.079 gone and get some breaks. Does that injure him more 0:12:25.160 --> 0:12:25.720 for the season. 0:12:25.760 --> 0:12:26.160 I don't know. 0:12:26.240 --> 0:12:30.840 It's all it's all just possibilities and hypotheticals, but it's 0:12:30.880 --> 0:12:32.959 the reality of where you're at in a one hundred 0:12:32.960 --> 0:12:34.040 and sixty two game season. 0:12:36.240 --> 0:12:39.040 Yeah, CRATSI I think you're spot on there. Go ahead, Josh, 0:12:39.080 --> 0:12:39.520 go ahead. 0:12:40.000 --> 0:12:42.480 Yeah, I totally get that. I mean you didn't we 0:12:42.480 --> 0:12:45.840 didn't even think about that talking about aeronauto in his 0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:48.199 his day because he probably went to bed the night 0:12:48.240 --> 0:12:51.240 before knowing he had a DHD. And as we know 0:12:51.280 --> 0:12:54.080 as former players, that's a completely different mindset from playing 0:12:54.080 --> 0:12:56.319 every day on the in the field to DH or 0:12:56.320 --> 0:12:58.400 even hid in that day off. You just if you're 0:12:58.480 --> 0:13:00.800 half shut down from a d eighth. If you're off, 0:13:01.080 --> 0:13:03.360 you mentally and you physically try to shut down the 0:13:03.440 --> 0:13:05.720 night before to prepare for that next day. So you 0:13:05.760 --> 0:13:08.080 gotta imagine coming to the ballpark and then not even 0:13:08.240 --> 0:13:11.559 just knowing hours before the game. He went pretty much 0:13:11.640 --> 0:13:14.000 up until game time not knowing whether he would play 0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:17.800 or DH or not. So yeah, it changes Aeronaudu's perspective, 0:13:17.800 --> 0:13:20.480 and I guarantee it he doesn't appreciate that. He wasn't 0:13:20.640 --> 0:13:23.559 very happy. And then it affects somebody else who maybe 0:13:23.600 --> 0:13:25.319 had a schedule off there was supposed to play and 0:13:25.400 --> 0:13:26.959 now they got a bum rush and get their day 0:13:27.000 --> 0:13:30.080 ready and throw things in line for them hopefully to 0:13:30.200 --> 0:13:32.320 be ready to play a Major League Baseball game, because, 0:13:32.400 --> 0:13:34.440 as we know, routines are a big thing a part 0:13:34.440 --> 0:13:36.120 of this game, and if you can't do your full 0:13:36.200 --> 0:13:38.720 routine and feel comfortable, you go into that game that 0:13:38.840 --> 0:13:42.120 night being absolutely out of whack, so to speak. So yeah, 0:13:42.840 --> 0:13:44.920 I'm glad you brought that up, Cratcy, because it changes 0:13:44.960 --> 0:13:47.679 not only your whole team, but it changes those individuals 0:13:47.720 --> 0:13:49.480 who have to change their whole game day plan. 0:13:51.120 --> 0:13:53.840 Guys, I think it's even worse if I remember correctly 0:13:53.880 --> 0:13:56.480 that Sunday, the day before this all went down, Arnatto 0:13:56.559 --> 0:13:59.560 actually left that game with an intercostal stream and I 0:13:59.640 --> 0:14:01.640 covered Nado for a long time out in Saint Louis. 0:14:01.640 --> 0:14:03.559 For him to leave a game is a big deal. 0:14:04.040 --> 0:14:07.160 But then he gets to Boston with everybody else except 0:14:07.160 --> 0:14:09.959 one key player and is back in the lineup there 0:14:10.000 --> 0:14:12.040 playing through something you know are not as a gamer. 0:14:12.080 --> 0:14:13.600 That's how you stay in the league for as long 0:14:13.600 --> 0:14:14.280 as he has. 0:14:14.320 --> 0:14:17.080 But all great points as to the ripple effect of 0:14:17.120 --> 0:14:20.480 what this does for your team, not just externally with 0:14:20.520 --> 0:14:26.800 all the outside noise, but internally as well. All right, guys, 0:14:27.040 --> 0:14:29.600 some weirdness. One of the weirder ninth innings we've seen 0:14:29.720 --> 0:14:32.360 as of late. Dane Myers thinks the Reds have the 0:14:32.400 --> 0:14:34.760 game in the bag. Their Cardinals are down to their 0:14:34.840 --> 0:14:39.160 final strike, and Dan Myers drops the ball and Tommy Fam, 0:14:39.360 --> 0:14:43.280 the always insightful Tommy Fam chimed in This Twitter user said, 0:14:43.360 --> 0:14:45.480 this ball is in left field, not even left center. 0:14:45.560 --> 0:14:48.560 What is going on Dane Myers? Tommy Fam said, what 0:14:48.600 --> 0:14:51.280 we have going on is centerfielders today who know the 0:14:51.360 --> 0:14:54.360 value of stealing catches to help their outs. Above average 0:14:54.400 --> 0:14:57.160 numbers go up because it improves your war. So you 0:14:57.240 --> 0:14:59.400 have this a game that is lost. Yes, the Reds 0:14:59.400 --> 0:15:02.280 did lose ten to nine because the center fielder didn't 0:15:02.320 --> 0:15:04.920 want the leftfielder to catch the ball because he wanted 0:15:04.960 --> 0:15:05.600 the points. 0:15:06.160 --> 0:15:07.880 Josh, your thoughts here are fair or not? 0:15:09.880 --> 0:15:10.720 It's Tommy Fam. 0:15:10.920 --> 0:15:13.480 I love how outspoken Tommy Fam has always been. Is 0:15:13.520 --> 0:15:14.320 that the case here? 0:15:14.480 --> 0:15:14.880 Maybe? 0:15:14.920 --> 0:15:19.840 Who knows, as an outfielder, you've called off guys probably 0:15:19.880 --> 0:15:23.080 a little too soon that the ball gets to drift away, 0:15:23.120 --> 0:15:25.160 so it does look bad at times, So maybe that's 0:15:25.200 --> 0:15:27.960 what happens here. But I don't know if I can 0:15:28.000 --> 0:15:30.720 take Tommy's comments that seriously. If that is the case, 0:15:30.760 --> 0:15:32.800 I mean the game on the line. Maybe it's just 0:15:32.840 --> 0:15:35.120 a mistake that you make as a baseball player. But 0:15:35.760 --> 0:15:38.320 I'm sure that does happen two boost guys, war I mean, 0:15:38.320 --> 0:15:40.760 I'm not totally against what he said. Is that what 0:15:40.840 --> 0:15:43.000 happened here probably not. Probably just a little bit of 0:15:43.080 --> 0:15:47.200 drifting Cincinnati. The ball flies very well, does some unpredictable things. 0:15:47.200 --> 0:15:50.400 So just a baseball mistake that somebody made and you 0:15:50.440 --> 0:15:51.520 move on from it. Hopefully. 0:15:55.360 --> 0:15:57.480 For the families out there looking for a new path 0:15:57.560 --> 0:15:59.880 to help your child succeed, take a look at Kate 0:16:00.000 --> 0:16:04.760 twelve Powered Schools.

But the Astros down but never out. They're 0:16:58.800 --> 0:17:01.080 four and six in their last ten sit at five 0:17:01.160 --> 0:17:04.920 hundred sixty four sixty four. Do they have enough to 0:17:05.520 --> 0:17:08.480 make a push in this sad, sad American league? 0:17:09.320 --> 0:17:09.480 Man? 0:17:09.560 --> 0:17:12.840 I think I think their bullpen's obviously gotten healthy with 0:17:12.880 --> 0:17:16.200 haters lights out Bryana Bray, who doesn't have to carry 0:17:16.240 --> 0:17:19.520 the huge load. Okre down there, King, I know he 0:17:19.600 --> 0:17:23.000 gave up a few, but they have that bullpen core 0:17:24.240 --> 0:17:28.000 that hopefully is not too tired from carrying a lot 0:17:28.040 --> 0:17:31.359 of the load this year from a starting rotation that 0:17:31.880 --> 0:17:36.600 to me without without Hunter Brown saying, guys, get on 0:17:36.640 --> 0:17:40.440 my back, I'm taking this. I don't know how they 0:17:40.760 --> 0:17:44.960 fend off the Mariners, the Rangers, you know, I don't 0:17:45.000 --> 0:17:47.200 know how they do it. Except for the fact that 0:17:47.560 --> 0:17:51.400 maybe you're done. Between the three intentional walks. He gets 0:17:51.400 --> 0:17:54.320 a game, Ken hit a dinger that'll win him these games, like, 0:17:54.359 --> 0:17:56.399 this team can hit, So are they going to hit 0:17:56.520 --> 0:17:59.119 enough to be able to fend those teams off? I 0:17:59.160 --> 0:18:01.920 would say no, So then I'm gonna take the opposite 0:18:01.960 --> 0:18:03.919 and say yes, the Ashers are going to win the division. 0:18:04.000 --> 0:18:04.960 Yeah, that's what he said. 0:18:05.080 --> 0:18:06.000 That's what he said. 0:18:07.359 --> 0:18:08.280 That's what he said. 0:18:08.560 --> 0:18:09.440 That's what he said. 0:18:13.880 --> 0:18:16.320 Now it's time for That's what he said. 0:18:16.760 --> 0:18:20.280 Top pitching prospect Kate Anderson is getting called up by 0:18:20.359 --> 0:18:21.040 the Mariners. 0:18:21.119 --> 0:18:24.080 He will debut on Saturday against the Cubs. 0:18:24.200 --> 0:18:28.960 Jeff Passen reports top pitching prospect in baseball, third pick 0:18:29.320 --> 0:18:31.160 in the twenty twenty five draft. 0:18:31.160 --> 0:18:32.080 Look at the numbers there. 0:18:32.160 --> 0:18:34.760 What strikes me is the one hundred and thirty five 0:18:34.760 --> 0:18:38.520 punchies and just the thirteen walks. Aaron Jude of the 0:18:38.560 --> 0:18:41.920 Seattle Times wrote that Anderson is one of the most 0:18:42.000 --> 0:18:47.320 hype prospects in Mariner's history.

You know, so is this gonna 0:19:06.560 --> 0:19:08.240 be six inning shut out? 0:19:08.400 --> 0:19:09.560 Yeah? I would hope. 0:19:09.760 --> 0:19:11.639 You know, this guy comes up to the big leagues 0:19:11.680 --> 0:19:13.840 and is everything that he's done in the minor leagues. 0:19:13.880 --> 0:19:15.679 He doesn't need to be in the minor leagues. I 0:19:15.760 --> 0:19:16.080 know that. 0:19:16.359 --> 0:19:20.920
