Speaker 1: together watching baseball. Thanks are feeling normal and I streamed

37
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 1: to that had a great stream on Twitch. It was

38
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 1: a lot of fun, especially when the Mets win.

39
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, we get that great clip from Alonso.

40
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 1: Got host that. Yes, we're gonna post that later today,

41
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 1: although it will be already old when you guys are

42
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 1: listening to this, but it will be going up if

43
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 1: you're somehow listening to us. Our Wednesday will be up

44
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: on Wednesday night. You'll see me and James jumping high

45
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 1: five each other on the Pete Alonzo home running Game three,

46
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 1: which was fantastic. But I think we want to start

47
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,079
Speaker 1: this one off with Game one because Game three was

48
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 1: actually good. We don't have to, you know, do Monday

49
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:11,960
Speaker 1: morning quarterback stuff here.

50
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 2: He could take this series as it is, and this

51
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 2: is also going to be an off day podcast, so

52
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 2: it would be a nice time for all the Mets

53
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:18,679
Speaker 2: fans who maybe didn't get to catch as much of

54
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 2: this Philly series as they want to sit down, relax,

55
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 2: take a deep breath, and be able to listen to us.

56
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,359
Speaker 2: Tell you, guys, every single thing that happened all three

57
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 2: of these.

58
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 1: Games, and let me tell you there was a lot

59
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 1: that happened. Then. It started with Game one where the

60
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 1: Mets got out early and got all over Ranger Suaz. Now,

61
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: granted they got all over him, but they also didn't

62
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 1: because Alec Bohm was just doing something that was I

63
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 1: haven't really seen in a long time.

64
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 2: Someone either Marte or Lindor Hill line drive off of

65
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:44,799
Speaker 2: Ranger of Suarez like second Valley of the game.

66
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, Marte smoked it off his leg and the Mets

67
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:48,799
Speaker 1: got off to a hot start, three nothing in the

68
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 1: first inning. Yes, normally feels really really really good, especially

69
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 1: with the way that was being done, Like Alc Bohm

70
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,799
Speaker 1: simply just had a mental breakdown, could not throw the

71
00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 1: ball at first space at all.

72
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 2: It's bad for Alec Boum, Like there was that viral

73
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,239
Speaker 2: clip of him saying, I fucking hate this place under

74
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 2: his breast do I think dd?

75
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,239
Speaker 1: Yeah? And it was caught and all the Phillies fans

76
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 1: were very aware of it.

77
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 2: During the game, he started getting booed a lot also

78
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 2: because of the errors. But that's just not a really

79
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:12,920
Speaker 2: good plan by Joe Girardi, because you know you're gonna

80
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 2: be pitching Ranger Suarez, who's a lefty, a little more

81
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 2: of a soft thrower, and he has a sinker and

82
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 2: a change up. He pitches to ground balls. The Mets

83
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 2: are going to stack their lineup with righty's rangers. Wars

84
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,360
Speaker 2: is going to pitch them all to get ground balls,

85
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 2: and a lot of those ground balls from right handed

86
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 2: hit there's on a guy with not much loss. You're

87
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 2: gonna be to the Paul's side, Uh, to the chart

88
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,519
Speaker 2: stop at their basement, So why are you not maximizing

89
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 2: your infield defense when this guy's on the mound.

90
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 1: No. It was funny too, is that it felt like

91
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 1: the Mets game plan as much as it's not. They

92
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 1: were just like, let's just like ground balls Alec Bomollah

93
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:41,839
Speaker 1: because every single ball, it felt like for the first

94
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 1: few innings went right to Alec Bowm. He was on

95
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 1: watch from the beginning, the throws, the mental errors, everything.

96
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 1: It caused us to get a three nothing lead. It

97
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 1: was a great start. And it was also great too

98
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 1: because Taiwan in his season debut, looked so good out

99
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 1: of the gate.

100
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 2: Looks so good, look exactly how we looked in the

101
00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 2: first half of last year. His splither had a ridiculous

102
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 2: seven whiffs on seven and swings and was sitting like

103
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 2: ninety eighty nine miles an hour, which is where it's

104
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 2: at last year when he was his most effective. His

105
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 2: fastballs up to ninety three and ninety four really put

106
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 2: all of those horrible things we saw in that last

107
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 2: spring training start behind and I was like, yes, we

108
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 2: have good Taiwan. I was scared about Taiwan a lot

109
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 2: going into this game.

110
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 1: Oh, it's terrified. I put an overall park, I put

111
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 1: an over first run innings because I mean I did too.

112
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:19,680
Speaker 1: That hit.

113
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,600
Speaker 2: Shout out to anybody who tried the Messed Up podcast

114
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 2: on Monday.

115
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 1: Night and it wasn't because of Taiwan. No, Now did

116
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 1: I put that bet because of Taiwan? A little bit,

117
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,160
Speaker 1: a little bet, a little bit into this bank ballpark

118
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 1: with that Phillies line up the way he made that

119
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 1: last start, but he really kind of silenced all those

120
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 1: worries because he was throwing what ninety three, ninety four

121
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,360
Speaker 1: and Splitler was ninety Splitter was great, Like he was

122
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:39,479
Speaker 1: kind of dominant.

123
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,600
Speaker 2: He was dominant to pitch two dominant innings and then

124
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:44,719
Speaker 2: after an inning he gave the finger like this to

125
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:46,600
Speaker 2: the trainer, called him into the tunnel, and he was

126
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,720
Speaker 2: out for the game. We now know his shoulder preseidas,

127
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:51,720
Speaker 2: which is a bad sign in April for a guy

128
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 2: who has dealt with arm problems in the past.

129
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, it looks like Taiwan is gonna miss a decent

130
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:57,599
Speaker 1: chunk of time here. They said that even when he

131
00:04:57,680 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 1: is back, he's gonna rehab because they wanted to get

132
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 1: back and strong. He still hasn't thrown almost any innings

133
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 1: because he didn't pitch much in spring. Nope, obviously isn't

134
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,719
Speaker 1: pitching much now. We might not be seeing Taiwan until

135
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:08,360
Speaker 1: maybe the middle of the summer. It feels like.

136
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,280
Speaker 2: Does all lining up kind of reverse of how it

137
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 2: lined up last year.

138
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 1: This, yeah, is that all the guys are getting hurt

139
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 1: now at the end of the year, which I don't

140
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 1: know what's worse. I mean this the fact that we

141
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:18,719
Speaker 1: can beat the Phillies.

142
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,120
Speaker 2: This is the most scared I was about the early

143
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 2: part of the schedule, playing the Phillies thirteen times before

144
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 2: June first, which everyone this week caught on to that

145
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:25,560
Speaker 2: even though I told all of you guys that two

146
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 2: weeks ago, so shout out.

147
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 1: But the fact that we.

148
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 2: Could handle them without our a pitching is a really

149
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 2: good sign. A big reason we were able to handle them,

150
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,360
Speaker 2: and this game specifically was David Peterson, who looked as

151
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 2: good as he's looked in the past two years against

152
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 2: a very scary Phillies line up.

153
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,159
Speaker 1: I mean, me and James in conversations, I was terrified

154
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 1: about David Peterson pitching in Philly. I know he's a

155
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 1: ground ball pitcher, so it kind of works in that park.

156
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 1: But just that lineup and the quality of hitters and

157
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:51,839
Speaker 1: how David Peterson looked in the spring, a lot of

158
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,160
Speaker 1: things were being left middle away, middle of the plate,

159
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 1: like a lot of hitable pitches who's getting kind of

160
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 1: smacked around the spring. When you see Harper real mutto

161
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 1: Castillanos orbra Hoskins, I go, this might not be a

162
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 1: good move here. But David Peterson shut me the hell up,

163
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,679
Speaker 1: and he really pitched well, to the point where you start.

164
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 2: To feel a little bit good about David Peterson, at

165
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 2: least good about the fact that he's on this roster.

166
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 2: He's gonna be getting endings. Like, David Peterson was no

167
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:16,600
Speaker 2: world to either random meets the pitch. Four innings, I

168
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,920
Speaker 2: think he only had like two or three strikeouts. Yeah,

169
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,359
Speaker 2: he wasn't like blowing people away, but he kept a

170
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 2: very talented offense at Bay.

171
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 1: He sayed mostly the bottom of his zone.

172
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 2: He threw a couple of very nice backfoot sliders to

173
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 2: rities that he does. He had a couple of nice

174
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 2: outside sliders to the lefties. His change up was fading

175
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,600
Speaker 2: very nicely. He also debuted what I think was basically

176
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 2: a new Wish curveball. It looked new in this game.

177
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 1: It was two for two on whiffs.

178
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 2: It had five more inches of drop than any curveball

179
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 2: through all of last year. So this was a pretty

180
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 2: good sign from David Peterson. Just the fact that he

181
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 2: was good and solid is great. Him being good is

182
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 2: great if you understand what I'm saying there, right.

183
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, Him being good is great because we haven't

184
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 1: seen him be good nearly in a while since like

185
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 1: that twenty nineteen season twenty two he was all right,

186
00:06:57,880 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 1: That's why I meant twenty twenty and he had one.

187
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 2: To start against the right last year where he was

188
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 2: just peppering that back foot slider against Rioty's non stop

189
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 2: And the fact that he's comfortable enough throwing that pitch

190
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,160
Speaker 2: is a very good sign. I like, I like Peterson

191
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 2: now to offer his depth, especially since we're gonna need

192
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 2: it with Taiwan done.

193
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, with Taiwan out, little Peterson's gonna fill in that spot.

194
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 1: Trevor Williams now takes over the Tyler McGill slash what

195
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 1: was then gonna be David Peterson, which is now Tyler

196
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 1: or Trevor Williams spot. I feel a lot better having

197
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 1: him pitched like this, and then we knocked out Rangers

198
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 1: sares quickly, and that's usually good sign. You get to

199
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 1: the Phillies bullpen early, it's a good sign. But Nick

200
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 1: Nelson came in and kind of just stopped everything. The

201
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 1: Mets really didn't hit much once Nick Nelson came into

202
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 1: the game, and we allowed the Phillies to hang around.

203
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 1: And as you know in baseball, it's dangerous. You can't

204
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:40,880
Speaker 1: let teams hang around when you jump out to a

205
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 1: three nothing, four nothing lead earlier, like the Mets did.

206
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 1: You gotta bury them. You have to bury them with

207
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 1: the offense that they have too. You want them to

208
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 1: start pulling starters out of the game and you get

209
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,560
Speaker 1: a bullpen on the ropes. Nick Nelson didn't really look bad.

210
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 1: He also didn't look great. I know he came from

211
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:52,679
Speaker 1: the Yankee system.

212
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 2: I don't know much about his pitches, but we didn't

213
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 2: really have anything anyway to hit him. It's not like

214
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 2: we're hitting the ball harleoft Rangers wires either. We didn't

215
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 2: hit the ball hearloff of Nick. So weren't straking out

216
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 2: very much. Because seems like this Mets team isn't going

217
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 2: to strike as much as we're used to. But just

218
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 2: like you said, you let the Phillies hang around, you

219
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 2: kind of invite danger into the game.

220
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 1: And can you believe I'm gonna say this, but James

221
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: McCann kind of was big for us in this game.

222
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,560
Speaker 1: He made a huge impact. He stole a base. Yeah,

223
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 1: he stole second right underneath their noses. But for one

224
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 1: a year, one a year, he still doesn't really do

225
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 1: much the plate, but still in the base, making an

226
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 1: impact where he can ended up being huge. Lindor driving

227
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: him in. That was a big difference at one point

228
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 1: with that run.

229
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 2: It was a massive insurance run that made the game

230
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 2: for nothing at the time, which felt the way the

231
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:33,719
Speaker 2: Phillies had looked at the play so far and that

232
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 2: game in surmounted, especially the way the Mets playing defense.

233
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 2: Luiski Army started this game. A second base looked great,

234
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 2: his glove was everywhere. He had a really nice double

235
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:42,240
Speaker 2: play turn that I don't know if many of the

236
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 2: second basemen, not even on this roster, in this entire league,

237
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 2: could have made a ball that he was leaning away

238
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 2: from throwing. It just spun his entire body and threw

239
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 2: it a good well still was the perfect throw, but

240
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 2: with the way his momentum was going, it turned out

241
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 2: to be a very necessary throw, and Pee dug it out.

242
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:56,000
Speaker 1: For a big double play, which is huge, guys to

243
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 1: have a huge gym. But then the eighth incomes and

244
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:00,600
Speaker 1: back to back nights, back to back game, the eighth

245
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 1: inning was trouble. It started weird too, because Trevor May,

246
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: who had pitched a grade seventh looked awesome in the seventh,

247
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,680
Speaker 1: came out for his second inning and you guys have

248
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,680
Speaker 1: seen it probably all over Twitter, but we're gonna keep

249
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 1: talking about this. It's a bizarre decision because Trevor May

250
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 1: a guy who does have arm issues. He's a Tommy

251
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 1: John guy's He's had a litany of arm issues through

252
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 1: his career. It's been relatively healthy with the Mets, which

253
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 1: is great to hear. But he came out for the

254
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 1: second inning the first time since twenty nineteen. Right twenty okay,

255
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 1: never has a met first time as a met. Immediately

256
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 1: walked the guy and it looked like I'm the last

257
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 1: pitch they threw. He screamed and shouted and was wincing

258
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:36,319
Speaker 1: in pain, and Wardo Escobar I was like, you guys

259
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 1: gotta come get him.

260
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 2: Like Trevor May does things like that normally, like he

261
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 2: will scream and shout on the mound, but the fact

262
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 2: he was like wincing and he got the ball, he

263
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 2: rubbed it up and he was still like rubbing the

264
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 2: arm around. Something was wrong and he immediately came out

265
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 2: of the game.

266
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:51,080
Speaker 1: And luckily the MRI yeah, nothing too serious. I was

267
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,199
Speaker 1: very scared. I was terrified. I thought, he's at the

268
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 1: back of your arm. That's not good. Yeah, I thought,

269
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 1: me and my dad thought that. He said, I thought

270
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 1: something pop, to which you go, oh my god, a

271
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:02,120
Speaker 1: pop that pops. No pops. We want no pops. Only

272
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 1: the bats. Yeah, only the bats need to be popping.

273
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 1: No arms. Luckily, Trevor May not seriously injured. I don't

274
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:09,800
Speaker 1: know when he's gonna pitch again because.

275
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:11,920
Speaker 2: He's not in the IL, So I'm expecting that they're

276
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,439
Speaker 2: expecting him to be ready for this Diamondback series.

277
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,200
Speaker 1: Which makes sense with the day off tomorrow. Yes, but

278
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 1: here's where the issue came in. Joelli came in. He

279
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:21,679
Speaker 1: got the lefties out, yes, but because of the issues

280
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:23,720
Speaker 1: and the trouble that we were already in, he had

281
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:25,680
Speaker 1: to face jt Raal Mutto with guys on base ye

282
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:29,679
Speaker 1: and jt raw Mutto stabs it, stabs it right into us,

283
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 1: crush as a home run on an inside change up

284
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,200
Speaker 1: with it. For the life of me, I still don't

285
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:36,199
Speaker 1: understand the pitch calling there. Pitch calling has been a

286
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 1: little bit weird, if I'm gonna get really nitpicky. I

287
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 1: haven't been thrilled with some of the pitches that have

288
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:41,599
Speaker 1: been called. But of course it is gonna be a

289
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 1: long season. You can find that every single game with

290
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 1: every single pitcher, especially lefty versus though. Yeah, that's it's

291
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,600
Speaker 1: like sacrilegious to throw an inside change up from the

292
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:50,480
Speaker 1: left handed.

293
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 2: Side right that was the intended location.

294
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:56,319
Speaker 1: Yes, I'm sure, I hope, I pray that wasn't the

295
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 1: game plan to throw low and inside change up to

296
00:10:58,160 --> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 1: a right because you're just speeding it up. You're you're

297
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:01,559
Speaker 1: helping him out getting that bad head out in front

298
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 1: of it, as opposed to lefty or on the outside corner.

299
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 1: He's going to try and pull the ball and hit

300
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 1: a weak ground ball, but he got ahold of it,

301
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:08,719
Speaker 1: crushed it, and then Seth Lugo came in and you

302
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 1: go okay, at least it's four to three. That huge

303
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 1: run was that? That one was big by James mccannon

304
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:15,559
Speaker 1: looked like, we're gonna be okay because Lugo's in, he's

305
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:17,679
Speaker 1: our guy. Two outs, nobody.

306
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 2: On against nic Castianos, right yeah, right handed hither then

307
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 2: followed by Reese cosk is right handed hither yeah. So

308
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,480
Speaker 2: you figure if seth Lugo, what was going into the season,

309
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 2: my second or third best reliever with two outs and

310
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 2: nobody on, this really should be okay. And he had

311
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,080
Speaker 2: Castianos one, two, and then he.

312
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 1: Lost him, and he just he could tell once he

313
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 1: lost him he did not have his stuff that night.

314
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,920
Speaker 1: And unfortunately the three batterman rule does this to you.

315
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 1: I don't necessarily know who the Mets would have gone

316
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 1: to if it wasn't for Lugo. Anyway, I don't think

317
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: they hit any idea either. But in a perfect world,

318
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:49,080
Speaker 1: you would have seen that first batter and go, this

319
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:50,680
Speaker 1: guy doesn't have it. Yeah, got a yank him.

320
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:51,560
Speaker 2: Because least the second one.

321
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,079
Speaker 1: It really is so obvious when Lugo doesn't have his stuff.

322
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 1: You can tell from the first pitch almost every single time.

323
00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 2: Especially with his off speed pitches in this game, Lugo

324
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:00,960
Speaker 2: was throwing mostly fast balls, and besides that sliders, the

325
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:02,600
Speaker 2: fact that he didn't have the grip of that curveball,

326
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 2: which is his outpitch. It's one of the better curveballs

327
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:07,320
Speaker 2: in all of baseball. There should have been alarm bells ringing.

328
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I texted you. I was like, where's

329
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: the curveball? Throw the curveball.

330
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:11,960
Speaker 2: He spiked a couple and you couldn't. You couldn't get

331
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 2: it over.

332
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,599
Speaker 1: Yep, Hoskins hit the piss missile. And then d D

333
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 1: fucking Gregorious, Man, my god, breaks the game open for

334
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:20,960
Speaker 1: the lead five to four. A Deed getting doing anything

335
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 1: is devastating to me because that guy's horrible. And I

336
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 1: preach about how terrible d D. Gregorious is as a player.

337
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:27,959
Speaker 2: He's still okay either. He's really not a bad bad

338
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,440
Speaker 2: He's a slightly above average league above league average bat.

339
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,079
Speaker 1: I think you're thinking of older d D. I don't

340
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 1: think you saw what he did last year. He was

341
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,120
Speaker 1: he was horrendous last year.

342
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 2: I mean, I'll give him, I'll give him a one year windo.

343
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:39,520
Speaker 2: I'm gonna pull up his fang grounds really quickly before

344
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 2: we move on.

345
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 1: But but anyway, I mean, like having him get the

346
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 1: hit really rub some salt in the wound. But like

347
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 1: we're feeling good, do you want to why because we

348
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 1: saw our least favorite bet so bad last year, That's

349
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. But the year before he was like one, sixteen, nine,

350
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:54,719
Speaker 1: nineteen bad. Actually he might just be pretty bad now, yeah, yeah,

351
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 1: that's w Yeah. No, I don't say this just as

352
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 1: the anti Philly.

353
00:12:57,880 --> 00:12:59,679
Speaker 2: One hundred games last year heit the two and nine

354
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:00,880
Speaker 2: a half, it's pretty horrible.

355
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 1: I'm telling you. That's why he was so bad that

356
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 1: he got the hit, especially with how much shit I

357
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 1: talked to the Phillies and their players and their fans.

358
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:08,840
Speaker 1: But we feel good because brad Hand was coming onto

359
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 1: the field and we're like, hey, this guy stinks.

360
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,720
Speaker 2: It's almost painful when you're the road team and you

361
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:15,199
Speaker 2: give up a big lead like this in the bottom

362
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 2: of the eighth because you have no time to scramble.

363
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 2: You there's no time to Readjust like all of a sudden,

364
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,320
Speaker 2: you have brad Hand coming up. The Mets said, no red,

365
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 2: he's left on the bench. All lefties do up in

366
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 2: the inning, and it's just he's got Brad Handed. He

367
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 2: picked off some bullshit strikes dom Tom got screwed on,

368
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 2: got screwed on, two calls, and like the slide, the're lefty,

369
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 2: un lefty, it's gonna play. But the fastball, he was

370
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 2: just picking off these stuba corns, the dumb angle he

371
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 2: comes in. The throw umpire was helping him out, and

372
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 2: I was in personal hell.

373
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, it was awful to watch brad Hand do

374
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:41,679
Speaker 1: exactly what Brad Hand has done for the last five

375
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:43,880
Speaker 1: years has made people think he's a great reliever. Like

376
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 1: three years he used to be good. Fine, yeah, that's fine,

377
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 1: that's more fair. He did have a good point where

378
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 1: he was good, but he's been doing what he's been

379
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 1: doing the last three years to convince people that he

380
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:53,959
Speaker 1: is still good. Yet everyone around the league who actually

381
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,680
Speaker 1: knows ball goes this guy is just really teetering on

382
00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 1: on a really.

383
00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,840
Speaker 2: Tight rope, so miracle every time he gets in out.

384
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 1: The Mets lost, and we held the spaces and the

385
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,439
Speaker 1: sky was falling and everything was terrible after two heartbreaking

386
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:09,439
Speaker 1: eighth inning losses where the bullpen seemingly just crumbled, although

387
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 1: I guess technically the Nationals game, the bullpen dang crumble,

388
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 1: but they move the game in the eighth inning.

389
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, and back to back games, but luckily he pulled

390
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 2: a nose back up for Game two, which was being

391
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 2: pitched by our new ace, Tyler McGill.

392
00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 1: Yep, Tyler McGill man. He is. I love him. He's great.

393
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 1: He's so good, big dick energy every time he pitches.

394
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 1: I know his nickname is Big Drip, which I don't

395
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 1: get that. What is that like a joke on it?

396
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 1: I guess it's a joke. Maybe he's, like now a

397
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 1: flashy dresser. Maybe he does have swag.

398
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 2: You can see the way he walks, yes, swagged, the

399
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,880
Speaker 2: way he's like his moniker, his facial expressions like he's

400
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 2: a swagged up dude.

401
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 1: So that could be Big Drip like drip swag. Okay, gotcha. Yeah,

402
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 1: but he let me tell you, he got he has it.

403
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 1: He has all the confidence in the world. He went

404
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:47,400
Speaker 1: up against what is considered to be one of the

405
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 1: best lineups in all of baseball shut him down, just

406
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 1: absolutely disgusting, effortlessly. He was so good, I mean, pumping

407
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 1: ninety seven, pump in ninety eight again whatever he was

408
00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 1: with that devastating slider the slider looks so good again,

409
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 1: which is really nice about the change up.

410
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 2: In the start, he only threw eight sliders the whole game,

411
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 2: but still good. Yeah, it's so loo good with the

412
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 2: change up he threw twenty five percent of the time.

413
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 2: It seems like that's the pitch that's leading the Tyler

414
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 2: McGill race to be the do some word diary here

415
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,480
Speaker 2: his primary secondary pitch. I will say that the pitch

416
00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 2: has significant drop in fade both by the league average,

417
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 2: and he's throwing it ninety miles an hour now. And

418
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:21,440
Speaker 2: I caught one view of when they were showing it.

419
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 1: Do you have a baseball in here?

420
00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, A lot of guys when they've been developing change

421
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:29,960
Speaker 2: ups in the last few years, especially a guy like

422
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 2: Tyler McGill, didn't really have great stuff by your face

423
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 2: so they can see it.

424
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 1: Who didn't really have great stuff on it.

425
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 2: You do what's called the vulcan change, and based on

426
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 2: where the seams are, you can kind of grip this

427
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 2: very different way, but you kind of make this three

428
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 2: finger grip on the ball and you can get a

429
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 2: little more drop while maintaining velocity. The fact that Tyler

430
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,040
Speaker 2: McGill's change up is now sitting five miles an hour

431
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 2: higher than did last year, with more drop and more fade.

432
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 2: Like there were a couple of pitches where he like

433
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 2: would front door lefty on it and it would just

434
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 2: like find the corner of the zone. But you all

435
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 2: enough time to reactcase it's sill ninety miles an hour.

436
00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:00,080
Speaker 2: Tyler McGill has got into the pitch laboratory and he

437
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 2: looks incredible. Another adjustment they made. Ronnie point this out.

438
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 2: He's can totally change his wind up. He's basically now

439
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 2: it's a full stretch pitcher. Yeah, he kind of limited

440
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 2: the amount of movement he has before the pitch, and

441
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 2: he said that's help him to use his lower half

442
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:12,880
Speaker 2: more and generate this new velocity. What a marvel this

443
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 2: guy is.

444
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:14,760
Speaker 1: Looks like the start of something special.

445
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 2: Looks like stars, some specials freaking right.

446
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 1: Kate Felman's eating her fucking words right now. Let me

447
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 1: tell you I can't Wasait it makes the all starts team.

448
00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 1: That's gonna be sick as a starter, not as a

449
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 1: reliever like she thought he was gonna be. I mean this,

450
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 1: Tyler McGill, there's just no world where he is not

451
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 1: starting every single every five days for the New York Mets.

452
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 1: He's he's a key main component of this rotation.

453
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 2: So he's an absolute Glinchpin tol whatever. Like even when

454
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:36,560
Speaker 2: the grom comes back, he's he's up there for sure,

455
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 2: and even but like he still would be devastating in

456
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 2: like one of these three ining Garrett with locked bullpen

457
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 2: rolls because he still is throwing sixty percent fastballs. And again,

458
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 2: goodumbuck for Yankee him in the sixth inning when he

459
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 2: was cruising through five and a third, he only had

460
00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 2: like seventy five or eighty pitches. Again, the fastball get

461
00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:52,720
Speaker 2: still looked effortless with this brand new delivery. But Schwarber

462
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 2: came up, and you don't want a talented left handed

463
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 2: hither to see your pitcher who's basically only throwing two

464
00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 2: pitches sixty percent of them fastball for a third time,

465
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 2: So twice in a row, the Mets have executed the

466
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 2: Tyler McGill plan, and he stills he had to give

467
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:04,360
Speaker 2: up a run.

468
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 1: Good process with tylery process, all about the process. The

469
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,120
Speaker 1: boys loved the process. And with Tyler McGill, whenever he's

470
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 1: on the mound, for some reason, it's crisp. It's clear, clean,

471
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 1: and we love it now. This game, of course, was

472
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:16,880
Speaker 1: a little bit different because the Mets didn't really swing

473
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,040
Speaker 1: the bats as much as they did in Game one.

474
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,480
Speaker 1: They had a lot of opportunities to get some runs early. Specifically,

475
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:26,439
Speaker 1: the bat I can remember is Robinson Cano and the

476
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:30,680
Speaker 1: first inning, the first inning, bases loaded, two outs. Yeah,

477
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 1: I don't really want to talk too much about this

478
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 1: one gun.

479
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 2: Fine, we don't have se Robinson Cano just had a

480
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 2: pretty non competitive at bat against Zach Wheeler in the

481
00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 2: first inning with two outs, And it's just puzzling that

482
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 2: he's continuing to get every DH rep over don and

483
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,200
Speaker 2: hitting in a relatively prominent.

484
00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 1: Spot in the order. He was sixth in this game,

485
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:47,879
Speaker 1: right sixth or fifth he was. He was up there.

486
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,200
Speaker 2: The logic, let's see three guys on and two outs,

487
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:50,879
Speaker 2: that's five batters.

488
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:54,160
Speaker 1: He was sixteen. Yeah, it's too much, it's not great.

489
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 1: He looked old this series. He looked old at the plate.

490
00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:59,360
Speaker 1: He was just he didn't hit the wall on the infield.

491
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:01,920
Speaker 1: I think there wasn't a lot of behind any of

492
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:03,600
Speaker 1: the swings. There was a lot of swings and misses.

493
00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,399
Speaker 1: It just looked this was the first time truly the

494
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:07,679
Speaker 1: game looked a little too fast.

495
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,400
Speaker 2: Robinson Cano and the game was looking fast and Robinson Cano,

496
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 2: while Starling on the other side, usually one of the

497
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:14,479
Speaker 2: best pitchers in baseball my Cy Young from last year.

498
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:17,439
Speaker 2: Zach Wheeler didn't have his best stuff either, pitching for

499
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:18,879
Speaker 2: the first time after a very long layoff.

500
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 1: He was only sitting in the mid nineties.

501
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:22,240
Speaker 2: Like this, this is a guy you have to jump

502
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,960
Speaker 2: on the fact that Mets had those three base runners

503
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 2: in the first inning, We're putting the bat in the

504
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:28,440
Speaker 2: ball consistantly not able to get a run. I thought

505
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 2: that was a bad omen, especially coming off the blown

506
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,200
Speaker 2: game for the other night. Luckily, Brandon Nimo popped a

507
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:34,639
Speaker 2: little off in the mid innings and he got the

508
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 2: home run off of Zach Wheeler after I think that

509
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:38,640
Speaker 2: was the fifth inning when there's no reason Gerardie should

510
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 2: have left him in there.

511
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 1: They gave him a very they'd like, set a very

512
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,200
Speaker 1: strict pitch limit, and Girardi pushed the envelope and got really,

513
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,320
Speaker 1: really really close to it because he was pitching so

514
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,199
Speaker 1: well and trying to get more. Because we know that

515
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,600
Speaker 1: Philly's bullpen can be volatile, and it was a mistake

516
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 1: because Nimo took him deep, which was great to see.

517
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:54,679
Speaker 1: Nimo had a really nice series. We'll talking about his

518
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,640
Speaker 1: Game three performance as well, but it's nice to see

519
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:58,199
Speaker 1: Nimo hitting for a little bit of power. I know

520
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:01,000
Speaker 1: it's Phil anything, so I know it's a little bit different, but.

521
00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 2: This guy last year seemed like he cut out a

522
00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:04,760
Speaker 2: lot of the power in his game to try and

523
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 2: get more contact, and so far this season he seems

524
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:09,760
Speaker 2: to be doing both, which if Brandon could ever marry

525
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,119
Speaker 2: those two things while maintaining the play discipline in center

526
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 2: field defense like sitting on a gym.

527
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 1: No, it was. It was great and I was really

528
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:18,880
Speaker 1: excited to see Nemo play well. And then they brought

529
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,640
Speaker 1: in Christopher Sanchez after that and he was really good,

530
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:23,720
Speaker 1: like really good too. He doesn't have any great stuff

531
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:25,440
Speaker 1: by any house, but he did the job.

532
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 2: Got the jobs us, similar to Nick Nelson the night before,

533
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,680
Speaker 2: but again Joe Joi left him in too long. He

534
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 2: tried to get the third inning out of Christopher Sanchez

535
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 2: and Francisco Indoor and the for a second time and

536
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:38,399
Speaker 2: as many nights as a very clutch two out RBI single

537
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:40,280
Speaker 2: which helped us get an insurance run that we very

538
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:40,960
Speaker 2: desperately needed.

539
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:42,440
Speaker 1: Which is great too because me and you even spoke

540
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,560
Speaker 1: about like his right handed swings haven't looked as good

541
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:46,720
Speaker 1: because last year his right handed swings early in the

542
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,320
Speaker 1: year were great. Yeah, this year it's been a little

543
00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:53,160
Speaker 1: bit rougher, I think, but overall, indoors looking like closer

544
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 1: to that player we paid all this money for. I'm

545
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:56,000
Speaker 1: loving the way Lindor's playing.

546
00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:58,600
Speaker 2: I mean, he's doing exactly what I thought he would do,

547
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:00,239
Speaker 2: what we even thought he would do last year. Hit

548
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:02,639
Speaker 2: a round two sixty two sixty five on base percentage

549
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:04,320
Speaker 2: would be pretty close to four hundred, and his slug

550
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,439
Speaker 2: percentage would be above four hundred. That's gonna give you

551
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,160
Speaker 2: nice over eight hundred ohps. He's still playing pretty good defense,

552
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:11,840
Speaker 2: he's in for power, he's keeping the lineup moving, he

553
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:13,520
Speaker 2: doesn't take really that many bad at bats, Like this

554
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:15,199
Speaker 2: is the guy who it is. He's gonna be a

555
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,920
Speaker 2: very casual for the five win player, and if things

556
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:19,440
Speaker 2: click right, he's gonna have one of those six or

557
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:20,200
Speaker 2: seven win seasons.

558
00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 1: This is a good baseball player, and I just wanted

559
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,560
Speaker 1: to be known that he got the big extra insurance

560
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 1: run in Game two. He got the big extra insurance

561
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:28,439
Speaker 1: run in Game one. Yes, he drove those both in

562
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 1: So all the Mets fans at home, who will definitely

563
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 1: start a narrative at some point that Francisco Lindora is

564
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 1: in clutcher doesn't get big hits, not sure, Just remember

565
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,320
Speaker 1: these two. He's had what two or three pretty big

566
00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:37,919
Speaker 1: hits already?

567
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 2: Is yeah, he said three late. He's had three RBIs

568
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,320
Speaker 2: after the sixth inning of a game so far this

569
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:43,680
Speaker 2: year in seven games.

570
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:46,000
Speaker 1: It's pretty good. Half pretty good. I think when you're

571
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,280
Speaker 1: talking about clutching big hits, that's that's exactly what you're

572
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 1: looking for. So enough of the Lindor nonsense, definitely.

573
00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:52,879
Speaker 2: But otherwise in this game there were just two really

574
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:54,960
Speaker 2: good pitchers on the mouse. There wasn't a lot to

575
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,120
Speaker 2: talk about with the bats on either side. Kyle Schwarber

576
00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 2: went his entire series looking lost, which.

577
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:00,960
Speaker 1: Is a crazy sentence to say for US Mets fans.

578
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:02,919
Speaker 1: That dude literally couldn't get out last year. I think,

579
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,120
Speaker 1: what seven or eight home runs against this last year?

580
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,239
Speaker 2: Seven home runs in five games? Nuts, he just went

581
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 2: three games without a hit. Was he was terrifying? He

582
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:12,600
Speaker 2: gets the most of bats. He leads off for that team.

583
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 2: We held him at check. We held him really.

584
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:16,840
Speaker 1: Well, and I mean even the bullpen this game. The bullpen,

585
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 1: let's talk about them too. Tyler McGill had a great

586
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,320
Speaker 1: job at the beginning, and then the bullpen came in.

587
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:23,679
Speaker 1: You mentioned Shreeve did a great job. He got us started,

588
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,720
Speaker 1: and then our boy Drew Smith. He continues to show

589
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:30,440
Speaker 1: that he is a legitimate good reliever in this bullpen.

590
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:31,960
Speaker 1: He's got to be one of the top right hand

591
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:32,919
Speaker 1: arms right now. He is.

592
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 2: I mean, he's proving himself to be someone who we

593
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:38,199
Speaker 2: can trust in high leverage. He's still developing very well

594
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,040
Speaker 2: because he just he dealt with so many injuries that

595
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:41,480
Speaker 2: this is the first time he's really pitched as many

596
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:43,960
Speaker 2: consecuted years in his career. Remember, we traded for him

597
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:46,560
Speaker 2: from Lucas Duda from the Rays like six years ago,

598
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:47,480
Speaker 2: seven years ago.

599
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,119
Speaker 1: So we should know he was good. We got from

600
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:49,760
Speaker 1: the Rays.

601
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:51,680
Speaker 2: They touched ninety seven and a half miles per hour

602
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:52,879
Speaker 2: in this game. He mixed this change up for the

603
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,760
Speaker 2: first time all season. His fastball had the fifty percent

604
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 2: with Ray like this is just a really good reliever.

605
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 2: Someone who we've been for a very long time, who

606
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:02,800
Speaker 2: I want every Mets fan to be able to sit

607
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 2: back comfortably know you can trust.

608
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 1: And he basically he came out for a second inning too,

609
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 1: which we're starting to see that book might love a

610
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:10,520
Speaker 1: little bit of a second inning appearance.

611
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 2: He did complete the second inning, which no, not many

612
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:14,639
Speaker 2: other Mets relievers have done this year I can remember.

613
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,520
Speaker 1: No, he was absolutely fantastic. And then of course we

614
00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:20,960
Speaker 1: shut the door. In the ninth Edwin Diaz looked so

615
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:25,440
Speaker 1: fucking good. Yes, he looked so disgusting. His slider. That's

616
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,119
Speaker 1: the slider we've been waiting for for Edwin Diaz forever

617
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 1: when he got traded from us from the Mariners. He

618
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:32,720
Speaker 1: knew about the ninety nine mile an hour fastball he

619
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,000
Speaker 1: had the life, but the slider was the pitch that

620
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:38,680
Speaker 1: made him unhittable in Seattle. And he just threw slider

621
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:41,400
Speaker 1: after slider after slider to the heart of this order

622
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:43,880
Speaker 1: and made them look foolish. No one came really even

623
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:45,359
Speaker 1: close to making any sort of damage.

624
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:48,639
Speaker 2: No, absolutely, he threw fifteen sliders versus eight fastballs. That

625
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,919
Speaker 2: slider had Phillies swung eleven times at it. And generated

626
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:54,600
Speaker 2: eight whiffs against the best hitters in this Phillies lineup,

627
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:55,920
Speaker 2: like it was unhittable.

628
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,080
Speaker 1: But yeah, he was just pounding the sliders. He threw

629
00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 1: that one in the dirt. Yeah, that mcann made us

630
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 1: play on. Give mckinton props with a man on, with

631
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:05,160
Speaker 1: a man on, huge play save the guy got ninety

632
00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:07,639
Speaker 1: feet closer and then he called McCann out. Had the visit,

633
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 1: threw another slider game over. I mean, I have never

634
00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 1: seen Edwin Diaz look so confident, look as good as

635
00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:17,120
Speaker 1: he did. Like that was a really still gave up

636
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,560
Speaker 1: two hits, Yeah, but they were they were doinks, they

637
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:21,520
Speaker 1: were doint hits, they were they were nonsense hits. So

638
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:23,960
Speaker 1: it was like to see him pitch like that, strike

639
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 1: out all three batters to get all three outs in

640
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,439
Speaker 1: the inning. That's the Edwin and das we've been looking for.

641
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 1: That's the as we've been waiting for. And I think

642
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:31,920
Speaker 1: this is signs that are really really good to come.

643
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:33,879
Speaker 1: And if for a guy who could have been a

644
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:35,720
Speaker 1: little cold too coming back from Puerto Rico.

645
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 2: Well that they said three times in the broadcast that

646
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 2: he was throwing in Puerto Rico, which is just so

647
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 2: funny to me.

648
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 1: It's just funny to think that there there is someone

649
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 1: that he knows that lives in Puerto Rico that is

650
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:46,400
Speaker 1: able to catch ninety nine, that that.

651
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 2: Literally does on the tip of my tongue. It's shocking.

652
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,399
Speaker 2: I would and so many things I'd rather do than

653
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:51,200
Speaker 2: catch edwind ds.

654
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 1: And think about it, like most of those guys who

655
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,360
Speaker 1: probably can catch nine nine are playing in the minors

656
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:57,640
Speaker 1: somewhere or at the major league level.

657
00:23:57,760 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 2: He probably probably friendly with a lot of guys in

658
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 2: the professional Puerto Rican League.

659
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it'd probably a cousin. I'm sure he has

660
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:06,360
Speaker 1: a cousin. Got to have a cousin's in the pipeline.

661
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 1: They have bullpen catchers in the family, a couple of

662
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 1: two brothers. But Game two we win.

663
00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:13,320
Speaker 2: Yes, I want to make one more point about Game two.

664
00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,920
Speaker 2: It was ridiculous to see Gary's familia on the other

665
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:16,520
Speaker 2: side of the game.

666
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:21,200
Speaker 1: Didn't like it, didn't like looks sick. I was, well, yeah,

667
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 1: I mean that I was expected. He made him look foolish.

668
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:27,280
Speaker 1: But his splitter was his splitter was working something that

669
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 1: But this is what we've noticed Mets fans too, is

670
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:31,680
Speaker 1: that when Jerry's familia is on. You are not hitting him,

671
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,160
Speaker 1: it's not happening. It's just when that sinker is left

672
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:35,800
Speaker 1: up or that slider he can't throw for a strike,

673
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 1: that's when you go, oh boy, yeah, here he is.

674
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:40,600
Speaker 1: Yeah he's uh, he's two face or whatever from Batman.

675
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:42,360
Speaker 1: He's got he's got the Harvey Den side, and he's

676
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 1: got the evil side. Jacquel and Hyde, Yes, Jackal and Hyde, like,

677
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:49,280
Speaker 1: that's Jerry's familia. Unfortunately, we saw the Jekyl side.

678
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:51,360
Speaker 2: I actually don't even know. I don't know which side

679
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 2: of Jel sounds more menacing. I think it's Doctor Jekyll

680
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,120
Speaker 2: and mister Hyde. Okay, so I think high would be nice.

681
00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,679
Speaker 1: No, I think Hide's bad, and I think Jacky you

682
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:02,600
Speaker 1: know what, but whatever, I didn't read many books. I

683
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:04,399
Speaker 1: read that one like third grade. I don't even know.

684
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:06,480
Speaker 1: We won. That's all you need to know, Twin. It

685
00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 1: didn't matter how good Jerry's familiar was. We beat them. Yeah,

686
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:11,959
Speaker 1: fuck them both, Fuck Philly. Game three Max Sures Are

687
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 1: Aaron Nola rubber match. The boys were streaming it on Twitch. Mattinee, Mattinee,

688
00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 1: I love, I love a good day game on a

689
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:19,840
Speaker 1: wednes getaway day like that. It was great that we

690
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 1: just got to get our day started with some Mets baseball.

691
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,679
Speaker 1: Although Max Sures looked a little shaky early. It was

692
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,200
Speaker 1: weird both starters did not start the game well, both

693
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:28,959
Speaker 1: of them were a little erratic at the beginning. We're

694
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:30,520
Speaker 1: not going to talk too much about Nola because it's

695
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:33,040
Speaker 1: not that important, but sureser, he walked three batteries in

696
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 1: the first inning, which I would love to know if

697
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:37,439
Speaker 1: someone can figure out for us how many times he

698
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 1: walked three batteries of the first sitting ever.

699
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 2: I hadn't okay, Howie Rose mentioned in the radio broadcast,

700
00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:44,120
Speaker 2: I was finishing up my bike ride to hangout here

701
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:46,879
Speaker 2: from Brooklyn, and this was only the second time in

702
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 2: his career that he walked three of the first four

703
00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:49,520
Speaker 2: batteries he faced.

704
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:51,840
Speaker 1: A game that's crazy, crazy for one of the you know,

705
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,199
Speaker 1: best pictures that we've seen in our lifetime. And of

706
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 1: course Max Sures are fashion. We got it. Yeah, I

707
00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:57,960
Speaker 1: don't know how he does it, but he did. He

708
00:25:58,000 --> 00:25:59,480
Speaker 1: got out of it. I guess that's also the Phillies

709
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:01,680
Speaker 1: lineup too, and while screaming at the umpire, Yeah, oh

710
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:03,639
Speaker 1: my god, he he is a psychle. We got to

711
00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:05,359
Speaker 1: see a little bit of psycho Max Suers today. He

712
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:06,960
Speaker 1: was calm in Washington. He was nuts today.

713
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:08,399
Speaker 2: But you mentioned the Phillies lineup, and it was very

714
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:10,800
Speaker 2: apparent this series and this inning was like the perfect

715
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 2: what's that word, microcosm? Microcosm is exactly what it is,

716
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:15,119
Speaker 2: good word. That's the two way of today.

717
00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:16,880
Speaker 1: A lot of high five today, a lot of high fives,

718
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,399
Speaker 1: a lot of series against the Phillies. We just to

719
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:21,880
Speaker 1: go off topic here. You spoke all last episode about

720
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 1: this is gonna set the tone. We were like, this

721
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 1: is important, it's at the tone. The Mets took two

722
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 1: of three and really should have swept, really should have swept.

723
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 1: There's a world that Mets of seven to zero right now,

724
00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:32,280
Speaker 1: and the boys would be high on life. If you

725
00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 1: jump on the roof, we'd be doing an episode outside.

726
00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 2: But again this inning, Max Scherzer walked Kyle Schwarber, he

727
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,399
Speaker 2: walked Bryce Harp and he walked Nic Castianos, and he

728
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 2: was kind of nibbling against all three guys, like and

729
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:45,320
Speaker 2: I will talk about it a little bit later, but

730
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:47,080
Speaker 2: he didn't really seem to have great command of his

731
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:49,439
Speaker 2: off speed pitches again. Last Star against Washington was the fastball.

732
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:51,679
Speaker 2: This time was the off speed pitch the secondaries, but

733
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 2: he got out of it and he just like it

734
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,240
Speaker 2: just really goes to show how much this guy has

735
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,439
Speaker 2: in him to be able to get out one of

736
00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,640
Speaker 2: the best lines in baseball, find ways to win when

737
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:00,760
Speaker 2: he doesn't have his best stuff.

738
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:02,359
Speaker 1: Yeah. No, he did not have his best stuff and

739
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 1: he's still one of the better pitchers in baseball, which

740
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:05,400
Speaker 1: is pretty impressive.

741
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:08,760
Speaker 2: Yes, also helpful on the other side that Nola was

742
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:10,720
Speaker 2: not his usual self either. He was more like the

743
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:12,640
Speaker 2: self he was for last year. Besides me, he faced

744
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 2: the Mets. He just wasn't getting the whists on his

745
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,120
Speaker 2: knuckle curve, and as a guy who only throws ninety

746
00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,600
Speaker 2: two ninety three relies on the location with that knuckle

747
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:20,800
Speaker 2: curve is a knuckle curven, the Mets are gonna hit

748
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:21,400
Speaker 2: him and we did.

749
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 1: Yeah. I got a theory that something was going on

750
00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 1: off the mound today because it felt like everybody that

751
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:27,320
Speaker 1: came into the game and it was kicking it, digging

752
00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:30,119
Speaker 1: in it. Everybody's first few pitches were high, So I'm

753
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:33,280
Speaker 1: wondering high mound, low mound, whatever it was that everyone

754
00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:35,199
Speaker 1: was having an issue. It seemed like I'm gonna I'm

755
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:36,560
Speaker 1: willing to blame the mound a little bit here. I

756
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:38,399
Speaker 1: don't think the Philly ground keepers were on top of

757
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 1: their game.

758
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 2: I'm there for that, and hopefully the mound played in

759
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,560
Speaker 2: because Brandon Nemo turned on a high fastball and sent

760
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 2: it right out to the right field seats. How many

761
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 2: home runs with Brandon Nemo hit in a full season

762
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 2: assistance Bank Park, thirty thirty thirty. Yeah, guy's incredible. He's

763
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:53,399
Speaker 2: just he's really really been awesome this season. Today was

764
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:55,520
Speaker 2: like again, I'm gonna say again, good microcosms for brand

765
00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:57,320
Speaker 2: Nemo because the only things he did in his at

766
00:27:57,320 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 2: bats were two walks, two strikeouts and the solo home

767
00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 2: ruck the true three outcome King but on the years

768
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,639
Speaker 2: getting more contact. Yeah, as three thirty three average and

769
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:07,600
Speaker 2: was all said done today over his first seven games,

770
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:09,120
Speaker 2: which he loved to see that from Brandon Nemo.

771
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 1: Especially for a guy who we were a little bit

772
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:11,840
Speaker 1: nervous about with that stiff neck, a little bit of

773
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:14,360
Speaker 1: stiff neck, Nimo. The stiff neck looks like it's fine

774
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,200
Speaker 1: now because two home runs for Neimo and the first

775
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:17,440
Speaker 1: you know, five to six seven games.

776
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 2: Pretty good pictures he's pitching against got turned around watching.

777
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:22,080
Speaker 1: Snapping next Brandon Neimo, which we didn't expect to see,

778
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 1: but that that really does make this line up so

779
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,119
Speaker 1: much more dangerous. If Nimo has that power in the

780
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:27,960
Speaker 1: leadoff spot like that, from the start of the game,

781
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,679
Speaker 1: you're unnoticed because he could pop one out. So that

782
00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:31,679
Speaker 1: could be big for the Mets here.

783
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 2: They're a really good ball player. I didn't like in

784
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:34,800
Speaker 2: this game though, with the lineup, just again Nippick. I

785
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:38,040
Speaker 2: didn't like that they separated Francisco Indoor and p the

786
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 2: Alonzo in this lineup. There are a couple points in

787
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 2: this game where Faysiscal Indoor was getting on very consistently

788
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 2: and then Marte was up there and he not that

789
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 2: he was playing together bad at bats, but he's not

790
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 2: really smoking the ball so far this season. He hadn't

791
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:49,800
Speaker 2: clutch rebby late yep. But to have that Pete and

792
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,040
Speaker 2: thendor suction cup in the middle of this lineup is

793
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:54,320
Speaker 2: really nice, whether one, two, two, three or three four.

794
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 2: And Pete did stay on Nola in this game, wounds

795
00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:01,080
Speaker 2: up chasing him, drove in the four starling Marte with

796
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:03,800
Speaker 2: a Ribby doubble on just a horrific relay play by

797
00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:04,640
Speaker 2: d Gregorius.

798
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:06,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean on the stream we were talking about

799
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,320
Speaker 1: a lot. I love to talk about how bad DD is.

800
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:11,200
Speaker 1: You guys have probably figured that out, and I definitely

801
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:13,000
Speaker 1: love to talk about how bad he is defensively and

802
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:15,160
Speaker 1: what that noodle of an arm is and boyo boy

803
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:16,640
Speaker 1: did its show off today. I mean, there was a

804
00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:18,160
Speaker 1: double play at some point in the game that should

805
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 1: have been turned quickly. Couldn't get it done because they

806
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 1: turned a horrible double play because the Phillies defense is terrible.

807
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:25,320
Speaker 1: But this game came to keep using the same word

808
00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:26,760
Speaker 1: over and over again. But there were a lot of

809
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:30,200
Speaker 1: microcosms here because you saw the Phillies defense for what

810
00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 1: it was. There were things the little things, relay throws,

811
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,760
Speaker 1: turning double plays. J t Romut or not, it wasn't

812
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:37,240
Speaker 1: really his fault late in the game, but the relay

813
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:39,920
Speaker 1: or the throw from Nick Castiano's home was a non target.

814
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 1: These little things can be the difference makers in between games.

815
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:44,440
Speaker 1: So yes, it sounds like a broken record when we

816
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:47,480
Speaker 1: talk about the Mets defense or the Phillies lack of thereof,

817
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 1: but it really can make the difference, and when it

818
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 1: ends up being a closer game like it was, you

819
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:53,520
Speaker 1: can look back at points like this and say, yeah,

820
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:54,360
Speaker 1: I was a difference maker.

821
00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:57,800
Speaker 2: And specifically this this RBI by Pete. The ball was

822
00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:00,400
Speaker 2: hit to Nick Castiano, say, I know that Joey where

823
00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:02,520
Speaker 2: just he I'm sure he runs with yellow lights very

824
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:04,720
Speaker 2: habitually as he drives on the road. He was just

825
00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 2: waving that arm around, even with the middle of the

826
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,440
Speaker 2: order due up and nobody out. But he knows in

827
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 2: the back of his head and Nick castiais digging the

828
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,160
Speaker 2: ball out in left field. He's not a very good fielder,

829
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 2: and he doesn't have very strong arm, and it's coming

830
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:16,880
Speaker 2: d derigorious right here. He's not a very good fielder

831
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,160
Speaker 2: and doesn't have very strong arm. Dede bobbled the ball.

832
00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:21,520
Speaker 2: He spiked it to home plate and Marte beat it

833
00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:22,840
Speaker 2: by beat it by a couple of seconds.

834
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,080
Speaker 1: And how about the day for Pete two, who came

835
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:26,680
Speaker 1: into the game maybe struggling a little bit. People in

836
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 1: twitch were telling me you was struggling, and I wanted

837
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:29,920
Speaker 1: to fight them because it was like six games into

838
00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:32,600
Speaker 1: the year. But Pete out of day two doubles home run.

839
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:34,520
Speaker 1: It's kind of Peter Longs that we expect.

840
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:35,840
Speaker 2: To see four hard hit balls a home run that

841
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 2: we're gonna talk about later.

842
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 1: He was fantastic, and then we had a lot of

843
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 1: hit eye pitches as well. Today the hit by pitch

844
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:44,479
Speaker 1: train continues. Canna McNeil theron Smith Yep, we did get

845
00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 1: a run out of it, which was helpful, but we

846
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 1: have just been getting drilled. And he continued, and you

847
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 1: saw Bucket on the top step again, Bucks giving some glares.

848
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:54,400
Speaker 1: Buckets ready at any moments notice to drop the gloves

849
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 1: and throw some hands.

850
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 2: And I will say that I think that when we

851
00:30:57,080 --> 00:31:00,240
Speaker 2: were winning this game eight one, that they might have

852
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 2: thrown a Gean cigar intentionally.

853
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:04,240
Speaker 1: There's a world where that Sean Reid Foley pitch that

854
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:05,960
Speaker 1: hit Jean Sigura and the wrist and took him out

855
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:08,479
Speaker 1: of the game could have been intentional. The one thing

856
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 1: I will say to the defense there is Sean Reid

857
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 1: Foy didn't have it. Yeah, he was, His command isn't

858
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 1: great normally. Yeah, So there's a good world where that

859
00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 1: was just a complete accident because he was kind of

860
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 1: all over the place. But that's something to notice, something

861
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:22,960
Speaker 1: to talk about We again said this series was going

862
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:25,120
Speaker 1: to be big for a lot going forward. Here there

863
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 1: was a lot of dudes hit this series already, and

864
00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:29,920
Speaker 1: we know, we know the bad blood that they already

865
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 1: have with each other.

866
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:33,040
Speaker 2: And the Mets play the Phillies ten more times before

867
00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 2: June first series. We have going to see a lot

868
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:38,400
Speaker 2: more of these guys starting next week in a city field.

869
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 1: Yep, sorry, next week in at city field. After all

870
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 1: those hit by pitches in Escobar's walk, we saw the

871
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:44,840
Speaker 1: Needo double play which killed the inning. We would have

872
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,280
Speaker 1: loved to have been crazy people and pinch hit there.

873
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 1: Me and James talked about it. It's it's crazy person.

874
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 1: This is the fourth thing. This is what the Giants

875
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:53,680
Speaker 1: and Rays do. So we don't expect the mess to

876
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 1: be there, and I don't expect you guys necessarily be

877
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 1: behind this decision making either. But if you really are

878
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 1: trying to just make some nuts moves and really goes

879
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:03,080
Speaker 1: to five five nothing at this point, yeah, balls to

880
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:05,040
Speaker 1: the wall, knock them out fit and the game right

881
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 1: then and there you pinch it. You pinch it Forernito,

882
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:09,520
Speaker 1: you bring in McCann and you kind of rock that way.

883
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:11,400
Speaker 1: It's scared with only two catchers to ask a guy

884
00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 1: then catch like four or five innings.

885
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:14,479
Speaker 2: So especially especially the day game after the night game,

886
00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 2: James mccannon was getting a blow like this was night

887
00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 2: game after a night game, or the Mets had three

888
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:20,280
Speaker 2: catches on the roster. I would say absolutely yes, but

889
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,520
Speaker 2: even not, they should be the thought that is in

890
00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:24,480
Speaker 2: the back of the back of the minds of the

891
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:26,440
Speaker 2: managers because you went through this entire game and did

892
00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:27,040
Speaker 2: anybody in.

893
00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 1: The bench get one at beat? I don't think so.

894
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:31,640
Speaker 2: Travis Kenchowski didn't come in the game, Robinson Cano didnock

895
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:32,160
Speaker 2: him in the game.

896
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:32,720
Speaker 1: JD.

897
00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 2: Davis knock him in the game. They were may kno

898
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:37,160
Speaker 2: him in the game. And McCann k not him in

899
00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:38,680
Speaker 2: the game. So there are players on this bench. None

900
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 2: of them were using this game. If you want to

901
00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 2: start being that crazy next level type of baseball manager,

902
00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:45,719
Speaker 2: that's where you do you find this situation.

903
00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 1: Step on the throat. We didn't do it.

904
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:48,200
Speaker 2: It's not the end of the world, but we just

905
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 2: we talked about it and we delved into it more

906
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 2: on the stream.

907
00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure, and then we u we saw a

908
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:54,320
Speaker 1: little bit of crazy Max Schers or two because you

909
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:56,640
Speaker 1: gave up that that single to Bryson Stott, which, by

910
00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 1: the way, I need to have a conversation about Bryson Scott.

911
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:00,280
Speaker 1: I was talking about this on the stream. I need

912
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:02,360
Speaker 1: to bring it to you, guys. Is your guys attention here,

913
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,200
Speaker 1: Bryson Scott, Vegas guy. People out there just seem to

914
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:06,640
Speaker 1: be a little bit of a different breed. I will

915
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:10,200
Speaker 1: say Bryson, the name of Bryson Jason put together that

916
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 1: to begin with this just that's a fake name. I'm

917
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,720
Speaker 1: sorry for names Bryson. It's just it's out there and

918
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 1: his walk up song needs to be spoken about because

919
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 1: both of them. It is just one of the worst

920
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:24,040
Speaker 1: walk up songs I've ever heard. He came up to

921
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 1: Uncle Cracker drift Away, and then he came up to

922
00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:29,680
Speaker 1: the song from TikTok. I think it's like I know,

923
00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 1: I'll be ao aokay, which like that is just you

924
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:36,920
Speaker 1: can't let a guy named Bryson beach you to begin with.

925
00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:40,560
Speaker 1: And then that's his walk up song. It's it's not allowed.

926
00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 1: And I'm glad that he didn't end up beating us.

927
00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:45,280
Speaker 1: But he's a pretty good hitter. He's got a good

928
00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 1: approach at the plate. I got give him that. He's

929
00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:48,560
Speaker 1: a good ball player. He seems very sound.

930
00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:50,240
Speaker 2: He plays a lot of different positions, which something this

931
00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 2: Phillies team desperately needs. And this that bad against Max

932
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 2: Scherz that he fought off a couple of very tough pitches.

933
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:56,640
Speaker 2: At this point it was first and ThReD, nobody out

934
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 2: in the bottom of this fourth inning. Schuzer had struck

935
00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 2: out the two hitters before Bryson to make it first

936
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:02,600
Speaker 2: and third, two outs, So you can kind of feel

937
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:04,600
Speaker 2: the momentum coming back to the Mets, even after they

938
00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 2: put some more runs on the inning before.

939
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,040
Speaker 1: Again, you're trying to put a team away.

940
00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:10,120
Speaker 2: You're trying to step on a throat, and he fall

941
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:11,880
Speaker 2: off some tough pitches and shures the room with two

942
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:12,720
Speaker 2: strike fastball.

943
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:14,360
Speaker 1: I got a little bit too much plate below his

944
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:15,400
Speaker 1: own and he just fisted.

945
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:17,399
Speaker 2: He didn't fist it, but he smoked it. He didn't

946
00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:18,920
Speaker 2: smoke it either. It was something in between.

947
00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:20,400
Speaker 1: I thought he took it. What was the ex of

948
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:22,239
Speaker 1: Youla on that. I bet she was close to one

949
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:23,879
Speaker 1: hundred ninety four and a half.

950
00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:25,880
Speaker 2: Okay, he didn't smoke it, but almost a hard hit ball,

951
00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:27,480
Speaker 2: So I mean that technically you could have been right

952
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:30,400
Speaker 2: seventy eight of the XP but XBA got just over

953
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,839
Speaker 2: Francisco Lindora's glove and got whatever the Mets has gotten

954
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:35,879
Speaker 2: insurance running in before the Phillies grabbed one back.

955
00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:37,680
Speaker 1: And this is one of the moments that kept him

956
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:38,040
Speaker 1: in the game.

957
00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:40,600
Speaker 2: And by all means you give up only one run

958
00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:42,800
Speaker 2: when you have first and third, nobody else, that's like decent.

959
00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:44,759
Speaker 2: I would call that like a neutral finish to an inning.

960
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:49,000
Speaker 2: And Max Scherzer stomped into the dugout. He threw there's glove,

961
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:51,600
Speaker 2: he was screaming, he was bright red, his hair was everywhere.

962
00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:53,759
Speaker 2: Gave us a little taste of the psychopath we have

963
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:54,400
Speaker 2: pitching for us.

964
00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:56,480
Speaker 1: And he does have that history too with the Phillies

965
00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,120
Speaker 1: last year Jojo already checking him for sticky stuff, taking

966
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,560
Speaker 1: it over again, taking it, pants off, screaming at them,

967
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,200
Speaker 1: Joe Girardi then challenging Kevin Long to a fight, who

968
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,239
Speaker 1: he's a good friend with, who's now the hitting coach

969
00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:08,440
Speaker 1: in the Philadelphia Phillies. Like there's a lot going on

970
00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:10,080
Speaker 1: there with the Phillies and Max Scherz are glad to

971
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:10,879
Speaker 1: have him on our side.

972
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:13,279
Speaker 2: Yes, And it was another start mentioned before where Max

973
00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:15,319
Speaker 2: Scherzer was able to gut one out and be very

974
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:17,640
Speaker 2: very useful to this team without his best stuff. He

975
00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:19,640
Speaker 2: had twenty five pitch first sitting that kind of killed

976
00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:21,080
Speaker 2: any chance he had to give us length. He still

977
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 2: got through five, which most modern pitchers. There were twenty

978
00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:25,200
Speaker 2: five fifth pitch first sitting. He almost got to write

979
00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:27,319
Speaker 2: them off. In the third, he threw more than fifty

980
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:29,239
Speaker 2: percent fastballs and you got to get some whiffs on that,

981
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:31,239
Speaker 2: which is very good sign. After getting none. Last Friday

982
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:33,279
Speaker 2: night against the Nationals, he touched ninety seven for the

983
00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 2: first time this season. If Max Scherzer can maintain ninety

984
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,440
Speaker 2: six ninety seven, we have still an ace even in

985
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:40,839
Speaker 2: his late thirties. But he just didn't seem to really

986
00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 2: have the touch and that Slyler changeup. He wasn't throwing

987
00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:45,239
Speaker 2: them in in a lot of counts, especially not when

988
00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:47,920
Speaker 2: he was behind. But all that being said, those two

989
00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:50,719
Speaker 2: pitches combined got forty percent whiffs. So even when Max

990
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:52,719
Speaker 2: Scherzer is just like fifty percent of what he can be,

991
00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:55,400
Speaker 2: he's still mowing people down and very very effective.

992
00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:57,920
Speaker 1: Isn't that crazy to talk about him not having it

993
00:35:58,120 --> 00:35:59,719
Speaker 1: and then you go, but his whip rates like e

994
00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:01,440
Speaker 1: lead Still it's like one of the best in the

995
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:04,320
Speaker 1: game amongst Braddy Pitcher four pitches. He's so sick and

996
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 1: luckily a and the Mets offense was alive this game.

997
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:07,840
Speaker 1: We scored a lot of runs. We kept going, we

998
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:08,680
Speaker 1: kept hitting.

999
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:10,359
Speaker 2: Third day in the Phillies bullpens. This week's gonna happened.

1000
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:12,560
Speaker 1: No series, And this is something that we talked about, like, Okay,

1001
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:14,440
Speaker 1: the Phillies have the big names, but as you get

1002
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:17,960
Speaker 1: deeper and deeper into this roster, there are massive, massive holes.

1003
00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,440
Speaker 2: Can you imagine with this series being said and done,

1004
00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:22,720
Speaker 2: the pitcher, the starting pitcher who pitched the most innings

1005
00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:24,319
Speaker 2: for the Phillies was Zach Wheeler.

1006
00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:25,880
Speaker 1: The guy who hadn't had the saw spring and has

1007
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:27,360
Speaker 1: a bump shoulder right now, only.

1008
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:29,120
Speaker 2: Only during ninety four miles an hour, like five miles

1009
00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:31,520
Speaker 2: an hour below his average lossy last year. No, it's crazy,

1010
00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:34,080
Speaker 2: but luckily, like I said, the offense kept hitting Seanrie

1011
00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:35,959
Speaker 2: fully then came in didn't have it. We spoke about

1012
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:38,080
Speaker 2: it hitting Geene Sagura, whether or not that's intentional or

1013
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:39,920
Speaker 2: not that's your guys decision to make.

1014
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:41,800
Speaker 1: I don't think it was. He could have been, It

1015
00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:43,680
Speaker 1: could have been. I don't think it was. I say

1016
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:46,040
Speaker 1: it was. He struggled, didn't have it, kept them right

1017
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:47,680
Speaker 1: back into the game, giving him a couple of runs

1018
00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:49,880
Speaker 1: here and there, and then Joellie came in. Who Joelli

1019
00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:52,560
Speaker 1: seems to be the martyr of the Mets community right now.

1020
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:55,279
Speaker 1: It's not going to be the manager. Yeah, no, God

1021
00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:57,480
Speaker 1: forbid of Mets fans says anything bad about Buck Shoalwalter

1022
00:36:57,640 --> 00:36:59,560
Speaker 1: right now, which he didn't do anything wrong with this game.

1023
00:36:59,560 --> 00:36:59,960
Speaker 1: I don't think he.

1024
00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 2: I was just saying that usually for whatever Met team,

1025
00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:05,600
Speaker 2: especially in my lifetime, the manager's one hundred pcent escapegoat.

1026
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:07,840
Speaker 2: And and now it's like, all right, everyone, especially the

1027
00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:10,000
Speaker 2: old guys, I'll trust the manager tremendously, So we gotta

1028
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:12,280
Speaker 2: scape on somebody else. Yes, And that guy has been Joellie,

1029
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:14,799
Speaker 2: who got Schwarbur out, who made him look stupid, made

1030
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:17,279
Speaker 2: him look really stupid. The problem, though, was when he

1031
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:19,120
Speaker 2: came out for the next inning, which again this is

1032
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:20,920
Speaker 2: this is gonna be a theme all season long, I think.

1033
00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:22,600
Speaker 1: But again kind of like this was the Phillies.

1034
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:25,160
Speaker 2: You used Treve yesterday. You want Joelle to be able

1035
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:26,719
Speaker 2: to face Price Harper. You don't want to bring in

1036
00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:28,759
Speaker 2: a not so great rity in the seventh inning, the

1037
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:29,320
Speaker 2: face Price.

1038
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:33,759
Speaker 1: Harper nogree and he walked. JT walked. Harper yanked for

1039
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 1: the game. Out of you. O came in, wasn't sharp.

1040
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:37,680
Speaker 1: He hadn't pitched in a while. I feel like, feel

1041
00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:40,000
Speaker 1: like it's been a few days. Yeah, so not good,

1042
00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:43,360
Speaker 1: not bad. Eight five though, too close, don't like that scary,

1043
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:45,640
Speaker 1: scary when this game was kind of out of reach.

1044
00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:47,200
Speaker 1: I think I tweeted on like it was e one,

1045
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:48,880
Speaker 1: it was eight one. I think I tweed out when

1046
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:49,759
Speaker 1: it was eight two. I was like, eight two has

1047
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:52,560
Speaker 1: never made me sweat more like the Mets find a

1048
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:54,880
Speaker 1: way to make an eight to two ball game close,

1049
00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:57,920
Speaker 1: and that's what they did. But luckily we had our

1050
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,920
Speaker 1: boy Eddie Esco bombs the ex base hit machine.

1051
00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:02,439
Speaker 2: Even before that, I want to talk about the fact

1052
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:04,359
Speaker 2: that Seth Lugo had a good out thing. Okay, yeah, yeah,

1053
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:06,720
Speaker 2: he came back from what was a little bit dicey

1054
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:08,239
Speaker 2: on Monday night. Not a little bit dice He was

1055
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:09,959
Speaker 2: very dice He was as dicey as a guest, and then.

1056
00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:10,600
Speaker 1: He just he looked good.

1057
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:12,480
Speaker 2: Kurt ball was working, He's getting his fastball over.

1058
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:13,439
Speaker 1: It was all good.

1059
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:15,640
Speaker 2: It gets the top of the oiler face fashwarper real

1060
00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 2: muta harper, if I do remember correctly as well, And

1061
00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 2: that kind of eased my stress.

1062
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:21,960
Speaker 1: Going into the top of the ninth inning where your

1063
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 1: boy Eddi Esco bombs. Yes, the extra bashin machine. Yes,

1064
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:26,640
Speaker 1: puts one out to center field.

1065
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:27,360
Speaker 2: Good moment.

1066
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 1: Poor little kid, Yeah, poor guy, he looked he was

1067
00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:33,359
Speaker 1: like ten or eleven balls hit right on the precipice

1068
00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:35,680
Speaker 1: than the rail, on the railing. We know well about

1069
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:38,080
Speaker 1: the railing last year playing against the Phillies, right on

1070
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 1: the rail. He gives us a little what's that kid's

1071
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:44,840
Speaker 1: name against the Yankees who's famous for putting it over? Jeffrey,

1072
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:49,200
Speaker 1: I have no idea. Well, whatever that kid's name is.

1073
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:50,880
Speaker 1: This guy did a little bit of that, except he

1074
00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:52,520
Speaker 1: was a Phillies fan, kind of helping the Mets out

1075
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:55,000
Speaker 1: a little bit, reached way over, clanked off his glove.

1076
00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:57,000
Speaker 1: The glove fell off into the field too. The poor kid.

1077
00:38:57,040 --> 00:38:58,320
Speaker 1: I feel bad for me too. It's got to go

1078
00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 1: to school tomorrow. Yeah, that's a Philly fan. His friends

1079
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:04,239
Speaker 1: are blowing him up. All the garbage Philly people are

1080
00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:06,160
Speaker 1: gonna be shitting on this poor kid. They boot him.

1081
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:08,879
Speaker 1: They boot a ten year old kid. He felt bad.

1082
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:10,759
Speaker 1: His hat was over his face. They threw his glove

1083
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:12,440
Speaker 1: back to him, which was nice. Was he out here?

1084
00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:14,120
Speaker 2: Veeerling whoever was playing center field and nine? I think

1085
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:16,000
Speaker 2: that was very cool. But I thought for that kid,

1086
00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:17,840
Speaker 2: he was bright red. Losing your baseball glove as an

1087
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:19,319
Speaker 2: eleven year old, that'll ruin your whole summer.

1088
00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:22,080
Speaker 1: It's devastating. Oh my god, his stummers, his stummers just

1089
00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:24,120
Speaker 1: getting sorry. He's playing rec ball. Had a game tonight.

1090
00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:26,239
Speaker 1: He's what he could. He skipped school today to go

1091
00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 1: to this game and unfortunately got caught. I mean, if

1092
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:31,319
Speaker 1: I mean a good dad, just sure as the versus Noah. Yeah,

1093
00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:34,520
Speaker 1: I would hope that all the fathers of Philadelphia or

1094
00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 1: New York Mets fans had the opportunity to pull out

1095
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:38,239
Speaker 1: their kid, even to watch it on TV. It's worth

1096
00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:40,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do that at some point, my kid to

1097
00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:41,839
Speaker 1: watch a game on TV.

1098
00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:45,400
Speaker 2: By then, he just got through his five innings.

1099
00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:47,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, to watch him. Gotta watch him. Now Here's what

1100
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:50,200
Speaker 1: happened though. At or Escobar got the triple after you know,

1101
00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:52,919
Speaker 1: replay review, which was great because demand's an extra base

1102
00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:54,839
Speaker 1: hit machine. Plus he walked three times on the day,

1103
00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:57,520
Speaker 1: have a day at Wadows a year eight on the year.

1104
00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:00,040
Speaker 1: And then Tom Smith we got another sack fly. You

1105
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,160
Speaker 1: guys know we love the sacrifice fly around here Tom

1106
00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:03,920
Speaker 1: Smith with a nice sack flight to left field. We

1107
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:06,480
Speaker 1: talked about that Casteano's play couldn't make a good throw

1108
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:08,399
Speaker 1: safe at the plate. It was close, a good throw,

1109
00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:10,480
Speaker 1: he might have been out, yes, but because the Phillies

1110
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:14,239
Speaker 1: defense again is trash. There you go. The Mets score run,

1111
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:16,319
Speaker 1: get a huge run to make it nine to five,

1112
00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:19,600
Speaker 1: and when DS comes in gives up at the doinkiest

1113
00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:21,439
Speaker 1: home run of all time to Bryce Harper. We said

1114
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:24,799
Speaker 1: it only happened because the man has never sitting, has

1115
00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:27,560
Speaker 1: a good moarmon. He's the bad of shadow whiskey. I

1116
00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:30,680
Speaker 1: believe is what you said that if he did that point,

1117
00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:32,799
Speaker 1: let's not get it out. But he got a home

1118
00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:35,120
Speaker 1: run there and the Mets end up winning this game

1119
00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:38,200
Speaker 1: nine six ed. When Diaz was fine, Harry looks very good.

1120
00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:41,000
Speaker 1: No hate Fredwin Diaz. That ball by Bress Harper the

1121
00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:43,840
Speaker 1: one sixty expected batting average off off the bat. It

1122
00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:46,080
Speaker 1: was essentially the Jacobs songs home run. Yes it was.

1123
00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:49,120
Speaker 2: That was the same expected bating average as a lackadaisical

1124
00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:51,480
Speaker 2: Mark Hanna ground ball to end the top of the ninth.

1125
00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:53,879
Speaker 1: It just it just got out your Sistan's back park.

1126
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:55,759
Speaker 1: Just happened to go three hundred and thirty five feet

1127
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:57,600
Speaker 1: in the right spot in the air. So well it

1128
00:40:57,640 --> 00:40:59,920
Speaker 1: happens Mets win the series. Yes, that's the big takeaway.

1129
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:02,240
Speaker 1: The Mets win the series. Another high five for the Boys.

1130
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:04,399
Speaker 1: Two of three could have been three of three because

1131
00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:06,359
Speaker 1: been and we really did set the tone I think

1132
00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:08,759
Speaker 1: for what this season series is going to be. We

1133
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:10,840
Speaker 1: went on the road for a Phillies team that was

1134
00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,120
Speaker 1: kind of swinging the bat. Well, I know they they

1135
00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,760
Speaker 1: ended the series poorly against the Oakland A's. They didn't score,

1136
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:17,640
Speaker 1: but it kind of played into the rest of the series.

1137
00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:19,520
Speaker 1: Here the Mets were able to quiet the bats, and

1138
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:21,920
Speaker 1: even this game they didn't particularly hit well.

1139
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:23,120
Speaker 2: It was a lot of walks and a lot of

1140
00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:25,040
Speaker 2: donkey little hits and it wasn't really until they were

1141
00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:27,759
Speaker 2: down eight one got the bats going, and same thing

1142
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:30,640
Speaker 2: with that that Monday night game, we kind of got

1143
00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:32,840
Speaker 2: their bats going like just a Jgroom moved a home

1144
00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:35,239
Speaker 2: run really and then back to back doubles. But it

1145
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:36,840
Speaker 2: really showed a lot from this Mets team to be

1146
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:38,200
Speaker 2: able to win this game. Like there's something I've talked

1147
00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:39,680
Speaker 2: about the end of the National Series, but you can

1148
00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:41,440
Speaker 2: just see when this Mets team is on the field now,

1149
00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:44,200
Speaker 2: defensively for the first time and basically my entire life,

1150
00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:46,840
Speaker 2: they are the one who are putting pressure on the

1151
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:48,480
Speaker 2: other teams to make mistakes. Yes, it's not the other

1152
00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:50,279
Speaker 2: team putting pressure on us to make mistakes. The Mets

1153
00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:52,520
Speaker 2: are making all the fifty fifty plays. They're making the

1154
00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:54,960
Speaker 2: easy plays look easy and the medium plays look easy

1155
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:57,319
Speaker 2: and the hard plays look medium. Like that Escobar made

1156
00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:00,520
Speaker 2: that big play which sounds crazy spinerama, the spinnerama where

1157
00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:03,239
Speaker 2: he probably didn't need to look good, look good, look

1158
00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:05,000
Speaker 2: swag and he got the out. And that's that's an

1159
00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:07,839
Speaker 2: out that Mets teams, Mets third basement might not get

1160
00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:08,520
Speaker 2: in years past.

1161
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,279
Speaker 1: Davis, not Jay Davis, and Wardo. Escobar, by no means

1162
00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:13,120
Speaker 1: is a goal glove. Third basement. No one would say that.

1163
00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:15,279
Speaker 1: But he makes the plays you have to. And the

1164
00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:18,480
Speaker 1: Mets are playing solid defense, they're pitching well, they're hitting well.

1165
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:20,400
Speaker 1: This is a really good recipe to be a very

1166
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:22,440
Speaker 1: successful team and that's why they're five and two right now.

1167
00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:23,040
Speaker 1: Could be seven to.

1168
00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:25,279
Speaker 2: Zero, and a big difference in a rubber match that

1169
00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:27,080
Speaker 2: got a little hectic was the fact that in the

1170
00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:29,560
Speaker 2: third day of bullpens, the Mets relievers were a little

1171
00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:31,120
Speaker 2: bit better than the Phillies. The Mets defense was a

1172
00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:32,640
Speaker 2: little bit better than the Phillies. And that's how they

1173
00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:34,480
Speaker 2: won this game, the way the bullpen pitch at the

1174
00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:36,399
Speaker 2: end of the game and the way the defense didn't

1175
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:38,440
Speaker 2: let the Phillies get back into this game more than

1176
00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:38,759
Speaker 2: they did.

1177
00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:42,200
Speaker 1: Just anyway, No, it was fantastic five and two going

1178
00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:44,200
Speaker 1: into the Arizona Diamonbacks series. We will talk about that

1179
00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:45,719
Speaker 1: here in a second, but first we do want to

1180
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:47,719
Speaker 1: give a little bit of love to the prospects, the

1181
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:50,000
Speaker 1: Big three. Yes, they have had a week or something.

1182
00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:52,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, our boys in Binghamton are ripping the absolute cover

1183
00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:55,000
Speaker 2: off the ball. And you know, some might say it's

1184
00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:56,680
Speaker 2: because they've all happened to be on the Mets of

1185
00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:59,480
Speaker 2: the podcast as guests here, and all all three of

1186
00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:01,839
Speaker 2: them playing really damn well in Double A I mean

1187
00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:03,919
Speaker 2: the Mets. We've talked about in the past, Like the Mets,

1188
00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:06,240
Speaker 2: minor league teams typically don't do well in the record department.

1189
00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:08,640
Speaker 1: This Double A team as a jugger not with these three, it's.

1190
00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:10,560
Speaker 2: An actual super team. This has to be one of

1191
00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:11,759
Speaker 2: the best teams in the Eastern League.

1192
00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:14,000
Speaker 1: It has to be. I mean Brett Batty, Francisco, Aavaz,

1193
00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:16,919
Speaker 1: Ronnie Mariisio. Just on the offensive side. Those are three

1194
00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:19,319
Speaker 1: future major league baseball players, and a couple of them

1195
00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:20,680
Speaker 1: have a chance to be really really good.

1196
00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:23,560
Speaker 2: Those are three top fifty prospects almost no matter what

1197
00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:25,839
Speaker 2: way he slices another, what ranking system are using, at

1198
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:28,800
Speaker 2: least I weren't his three top hundred prospects. And just

1199
00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:31,000
Speaker 2: to start with that guy Francisco, he's had some loud

1200
00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:33,320
Speaker 2: home runs three and three games to go along with

1201
00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:36,439
Speaker 2: two doubles, four runs and seven runs batter then.

1202
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:38,759
Speaker 1: And he had a single, a very very loud and

1203
00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:41,719
Speaker 1: long single that he pimped. He bafflipped it, which is

1204
00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:43,520
Speaker 1: funny because he last year when he did it, and

1205
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:44,959
Speaker 1: we spoke to him about He said he was gonna

1206
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:46,759
Speaker 1: calm it down a little bit, but seems like he's

1207
00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:48,839
Speaker 1: feeling himself a little bit. And I hope he's feeling himself.

1208
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:49,400
Speaker 1: Let's have some fun.

1209
00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:51,080
Speaker 2: He's better than almost every single player in this league.

1210
00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:52,320
Speaker 2: He should be pimping it. And the big thing for

1211
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:54,520
Speaker 2: Alvarez that I like to say last year when he

1212
00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:56,880
Speaker 2: got called up from Saint Lucie, the Bighamson, while the

1213
00:43:56,960 --> 00:43:59,080
Speaker 2: power was apparent one of the most best best power

1214
00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:01,239
Speaker 2: has basically ever seen. The cyclones harder than home runs

1215
00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:03,640
Speaker 2: there he was swinging missing a lot. His k ray

1216
00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:05,799
Speaker 2: jump from like being a minuscule number in Saint Lucie

1217
00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:07,360
Speaker 2: where they had the automatic strike zone, and he's a

1218
00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:10,000
Speaker 2: savant the strikes on SAVAN to over twenty five percent

1219
00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:13,399
Speaker 2: so far this year three games, only two strikeouts. Really really,

1220
00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:15,799
Speaker 2: really really great to see if Franciscua overs honing back

1221
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:17,960
Speaker 2: in that play discipline that made him a super prospect

1222
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:18,360
Speaker 2: to begin with.

1223
00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:20,920
Speaker 1: I do truly believe too that that awful, awful batter's

1224
00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:23,359
Speaker 1: eye with the cyclone and the like the wind, Yeah,

1225
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:25,160
Speaker 1: everything in there also plays a little bit into it.

1226
00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:27,279
Speaker 1: But Francis Guavas wing in the bat well, playing like

1227
00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:28,719
Speaker 1: this is gonna be up in Triple A soon. It

1228
00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:31,200
Speaker 1: maybe maybe makes a little appearance for those New York Mets.

1229
00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:32,880
Speaker 2: We gotta give him a basically a full month here

1230
00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:35,080
Speaker 2: in Double A. He has to be able to dominate,

1231
00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:37,400
Speaker 2: like make these players look small for a month and

1232
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,320
Speaker 2: then we can start talking about something that could actually

1233
00:44:40,520 --> 00:44:42,240
Speaker 2: be realistic in a few months possibly.

1234
00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:44,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then le's talk about Brett Baby too, who

1235
00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:46,640
Speaker 1: not too shabby, not too shabby, A homer, three doubles,

1236
00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:49,400
Speaker 1: six runs in four games. I mean, these guys are

1237
00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:51,560
Speaker 1: just good hitters, they're good ballplayers. So it's nice to

1238
00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:53,360
Speaker 1: see that at the level that they're currently. Yeah, they

1239
00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:55,120
Speaker 1: seem to be extremely comfortable and playing well.

1240
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:56,719
Speaker 2: Yes, and Baby and the next guy were talking about.

1241
00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:58,399
Speaker 2: Mauricio did have a little bit of exposure to Double

1242
00:44:58,440 --> 00:45:00,600
Speaker 2: A last year. Francis Guivres did not. He finished the

1243
00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:02,600
Speaker 2: season that with the cycles. These are his first three

1244
00:45:02,640 --> 00:45:05,000
Speaker 2: games in Double A and he has five extra bays hits,

1245
00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:06,640
Speaker 2: another ball that was smoked off the top of the wall,

1246
00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:07,560
Speaker 2: and just two strikeouts.

1247
00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:10,000
Speaker 1: And then Ronnie Mauricio as well, homer, two doubles of

1248
00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:12,840
Speaker 1: stolen base. Granted, he is still striking out and he

1249
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:15,120
Speaker 1: isn't walking, which has always been the knock. That's gonna

1250
00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:16,560
Speaker 1: be the knock I think on Ronnie till the end

1251
00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:18,279
Speaker 1: of time. That might just be the player he is.

1252
00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:20,640
Speaker 1: He might not walk and he might strike out a lot,

1253
00:45:20,719 --> 00:45:22,480
Speaker 1: but we know that the talent's there on the offensive

1254
00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:24,520
Speaker 1: side with the power, with the pop and even in

1255
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:26,640
Speaker 1: the field looking pretty good. He gets the players that

1256
00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:28,839
Speaker 1: he needs to. He's still so young, all these guys,

1257
00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:30,719
Speaker 1: even beaty. I know, we like to talk about him

1258
00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:33,920
Speaker 1: being like aar aarp, you know, sixty year scene, you're

1259
00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:36,040
Speaker 1: out of high school, whatever he was, but he's still

1260
00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:37,120
Speaker 1: what like twenty one to twenty two.

1261
00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:38,799
Speaker 2: I think he's twenty two, and the other guys are

1262
00:45:38,840 --> 00:45:39,400
Speaker 2: both twenty one.

1263
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:41,719
Speaker 1: They're so young. This is the future of the Mets,

1264
00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:43,560
Speaker 1: and it's nice to see that the big three headed

1265
00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:46,680
Speaker 1: monster of hitters is just looking really good, churning.

1266
00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:48,120
Speaker 2: And the last guy I do want to mention also

1267
00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:50,480
Speaker 2: is Jose Budo, who talked about a lot last year,

1268
00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:53,120
Speaker 2: got the opening day start for the Binghamton Rumble Ponies.

1269
00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:55,000
Speaker 2: One of the best names in the minor leagues through

1270
00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:56,760
Speaker 2: four innings, no runs, eight strikeouts.

1271
00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:58,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's good. He really good, really good.

1272
00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:01,440
Speaker 2: He's throwing fastballs, high, change ups low. The shape on

1273
00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:03,239
Speaker 2: that fastball something I pay attention to a lot too,

1274
00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:04,759
Speaker 2: because it looked like he had that nice rising action.

1275
00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:07,440
Speaker 2: Even though Buddo doesn't really have the lead velocity other

1276
00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:10,160
Speaker 2: top pitching prospects have. He looks like he will at

1277
00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:12,320
Speaker 2: least be a useful major league pitcher. Not sure of

1278
00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:15,040
Speaker 2: the role, not sure when, but it seems like Jose

1279
00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:17,200
Speaker 2: Budo has enough to get to this team at some

1280
00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:19,920
Speaker 2: point within the next eighteen months and contribute.

1281
00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:21,839
Speaker 1: And quick little housekeeping on some prospects too. We saw

1282
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:23,839
Speaker 1: Jacob de Gram take a picture with Joel Ds. Yeah,

1283
00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:26,760
Speaker 1: really cool. Which is cool because Diaz is It's an exciting,

1284
00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:29,640
Speaker 1: really really young fireball and prospect that the Mets have

1285
00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:32,080
Speaker 1: as a pitcher. Du Gram obviously because the injury is

1286
00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:34,800
Speaker 1: still out in Port Saint Lucie, out in Florida. Anytime

1287
00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:37,319
Speaker 1: Joel Ds spends around Jacob de Gram is a huge

1288
00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:37,759
Speaker 1: win to me.

1289
00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:39,480
Speaker 2: I hope he goes over his house and he's dinner

1290
00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:39,879
Speaker 2: with a family.

1291
00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:41,719
Speaker 1: He should he should invite more for a nice dinner

1292
00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:43,560
Speaker 1: for a nice meal. I'm sure joeld I'm sure he

1293
00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:47,400
Speaker 1: would appreciate. Yeah, for sure. God, And then let's preview

1294
00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:50,160
Speaker 1: the Diamondback series. That's five and two, coming into the

1295
00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:52,360
Speaker 1: home opener on Friday. A nice off day, which I

1296
00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:53,960
Speaker 1: think is huge earlier in the season. I love an

1297
00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:56,640
Speaker 1: off day here. A special win offul win is great. Yeah,

1298
00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:58,719
Speaker 1: off day, off of win, feeling like we did score

1299
00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:01,080
Speaker 1: and runs like that. It's great. And we're playing the Diamondbacks.

1300
00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:03,239
Speaker 1: We're not one of the best teams in baseball. They are.

1301
00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:05,920
Speaker 1: Week and we got the home opener, we got Friday, Saturday, Sunday.

1302
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:07,520
Speaker 1: The boys are gonna be there. We're gonna be there

1303
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:10,560
Speaker 1: on Friday, maybe Saturday. I might be there. Sunday. Not

1304
00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:12,680
Speaker 1: my Easter. I'm Greek, so I'll be celebrating the weekend

1305
00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:15,040
Speaker 1: after James he's got his Easter this weekend, so he

1306
00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:15,520
Speaker 1: won't be there.

1307
00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:17,160
Speaker 2: But good Catholic boy, Good Catholic boy.

1308
00:47:17,239 --> 00:47:19,840
Speaker 1: Friday, we will be there at the Severs Statue, unveiling

1309
00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:22,399
Speaker 1: tailgame with the seven line, having some BEVs, hanging out

1310
00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:24,319
Speaker 1: with the family too. The families are gonna be there.

1311
00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:26,440
Speaker 1: If you guys see us at the stadium, make sure

1312
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:28,160
Speaker 1: you say what's up to either of us. We'll not

1313
00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:30,320
Speaker 1: be sitting with each other necessarily on the home opener,

1314
00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:33,200
Speaker 1: but we'll be walking around hanging out. We got stickers

1315
00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:35,160
Speaker 1: for you guys, so if you want to mess up sticker,

1316
00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:37,959
Speaker 1: we'll be handing those out two at the stadium. Feel

1317
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:39,840
Speaker 1: free to use them how you please, do whatever you

1318
00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:42,080
Speaker 1: want with them. But we got the Diamondbacks, and we

1319
00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:44,200
Speaker 1: got Chris Bassett on the home opener, which I love

1320
00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:46,360
Speaker 1: because that's a completely different field than Carlos Krasko. No

1321
00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:49,719
Speaker 1: disrespect to him, but Chris look good. Chris Bassett looks great, though,

1322
00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:52,279
Speaker 1: and I'm super excited to watch him in person. Yes,

1323
00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:54,840
Speaker 1: for the first time ever, going up against Zach Davies,

1324
00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:57,839
Speaker 1: who is quite literally BP just just hit the ball.

1325
00:47:57,960 --> 00:47:59,759
Speaker 1: Hit the ball. He's gonna throw the ball down the

1326
00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:02,040
Speaker 1: mid He's gonna throw a ton of strike thinkers. He

1327
00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:04,280
Speaker 1: throws eighty eight miles an hour. He's not Kyle Hendricks

1328
00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:07,400
Speaker 1: eighty eight. He's debatably not a very good pitcher. Zach Davies.

1329
00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:09,319
Speaker 1: And this is the first home game for the Mets,

1330
00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:11,480
Speaker 1: the new Mets, which we talked about that maybe this

1331
00:48:11,600 --> 00:48:13,719
Speaker 1: lineup is built to play in city field a little

1332
00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:15,399
Speaker 1: bit better in the future. This will be a nice

1333
00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:17,239
Speaker 1: test because balls are going to be in play. Zach

1334
00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:19,000
Speaker 1: Davies is gonna put the ball in play when he's

1335
00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:20,520
Speaker 1: on the mound, and this Mets line up the way

1336
00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:22,600
Speaker 1: they've been swinging it, I feel pretty good. Game two

1337
00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:24,960
Speaker 1: we got Carlos Carrasco going up against Zachallen, who we know.

1338
00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:27,120
Speaker 1: Zach Gallen at just any point could become one of

1339
00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:29,600
Speaker 1: the better pitchers in baseball, especially with Brent Strom there

1340
00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:32,040
Speaker 1: now with the Astros former pitching coach now being in

1341
00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:34,719
Speaker 1: Arizona interested to see him. And then Game three is

1342
00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:36,600
Speaker 1: Caleb Smith versus question Mark.

1343
00:48:36,680 --> 00:48:38,880
Speaker 2: We don't know yet though. We haven't put anyone on

1344
00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:41,200
Speaker 2: the schedule yet, and there's two options for the Mets.

1345
00:48:41,239 --> 00:48:43,360
Speaker 2: He can either be David Peterson just fully filling in

1346
00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:46,239
Speaker 2: for tyleran Walker's rotation spot. The last time he pitched

1347
00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:48,120
Speaker 2: was Monday, it was four innings, so he has enough rest.

1348
00:48:48,719 --> 00:48:51,560
Speaker 2: Or really could be Tyler McGill because Tyler McGill pitched

1349
00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:54,200
Speaker 2: on Tuesday. This would be Tyler McGill's fifth day. This

1350
00:48:54,239 --> 00:48:55,800
Speaker 2: would be normal rest for him, and the Mets have

1351
00:48:55,880 --> 00:48:58,640
Speaker 2: an opportunity to go through one more full turn this

1352
00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:02,360
Speaker 2: rotation with another often week with four starting pitchers. Now

1353
00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:03,800
Speaker 2: I'm interested to see how they play it.

1354
00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:06,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would be aggressive if especially if the Mets

1355
00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:08,160
Speaker 1: win the first two games, to be aggressivelet's have some fun,

1356
00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:09,120
Speaker 1: I mean, but also they can.

1357
00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:11,440
Speaker 2: See opposite that Caleb Smith's pitching for the Diamonbacks, who

1358
00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:12,880
Speaker 2: was objectively awful.

1359
00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:13,920
Speaker 1: Cale star.

1360
00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:15,960
Speaker 2: He was a good believer last year for period of time,

1361
00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:18,280
Speaker 2: but he throws not hard from the left side without

1362
00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:20,200
Speaker 2: really many good secondary pitches.

1363
00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:22,000
Speaker 1: No, he should get smacked around as he did in

1364
00:49:22,080 --> 00:49:25,000
Speaker 1: his first start of the season. Yes, Mets should beat

1365
00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:28,359
Speaker 1: the Arizona Diamonbacks pretty pretty badly. Yeah, they should hand

1366
00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:29,800
Speaker 1: it to them. They are not one of the stronger

1367
00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:32,279
Speaker 1: teams in baseball. Keep an eye out for kaital Marte. Yeah,

1368
00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:34,680
Speaker 1: he's just like one of the better players in baseball.

1369
00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:36,360
Speaker 1: You don't about him because he plays in Arizona, but

1370
00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:38,520
Speaker 1: he's really really good. He'll be a pain in the ass.

1371
00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:40,920
Speaker 1: Anybody else from this team offensively want to watch for?

1372
00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:44,640
Speaker 2: I mean, new guy offensively. Daldvar shows a pretty exciting prospect.

1373
00:49:44,719 --> 00:49:47,120
Speaker 2: He's a very athletic catcher slash centerfielder, which you don't

1374
00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:47,600
Speaker 2: see every day.

1375
00:49:47,640 --> 00:49:49,040
Speaker 1: And he played chorse up in the miners too. I

1376
00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:49,600
Speaker 1: want that to be known.

1377
00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:51,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a pretty good ball player. Cooper Hummel is

1378
00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:53,680
Speaker 2: another prospect. Been hitting lead off for them. He's just

1379
00:49:53,760 --> 00:49:56,000
Speaker 2: one of those classic play discipline guys. He will sit

1380
00:49:56,080 --> 00:49:57,759
Speaker 2: there and just watch pitches go by all day long,

1381
00:49:57,800 --> 00:49:59,200
Speaker 2: wait for a good one hit out of the park

1382
00:49:59,520 --> 00:50:01,239
Speaker 2: if the that the opportunity. All know, if you will.

1383
00:50:01,280 --> 00:50:04,239
Speaker 2: But overall, this lineup as of right now five six

1384
00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:06,200
Speaker 2: games into their season and basically have no hitters hitting

1385
00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:09,000
Speaker 2: above two hundred. Their bullpen's also not good at all.
