1
00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:06,640
Speaker 1: Hi, this is Kyle Forber and welcome to the Philly Show.

2
00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:11,440
Speaker 2: Ruben Tomorrow, Junior, Jim Salisbury, Todd so Alecki. It's the

3
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:15,920
Speaker 2: Philly Show. It it is the Philly Show. Here we are.

4
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:21,000
Speaker 2: It's Wednesday, November fifth, twenty twenty five. We spent Monday, guys,

5
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:25,439
Speaker 2: going over a long list of free agent possibilities, some realistic,

6
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 2: some not so realistic, but you know, we had to

7
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 2: break them down. So if you haven't, you didn't missed

8
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 2: Monday show, go back and check that out today. Though,

9
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:36,839
Speaker 2: check it out. You can't just make free agents. You

10
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:39,640
Speaker 2: can't just improve the roster via free agency. Sometimes you

11
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:41,479
Speaker 2: have to make a trade. And that's what we're going

12
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 2: to talk about today. And let's get going. It's time

13
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 2: for the Park's First Pitch. First Pitch is brought to

14
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 2: us exclusively by our partners at Parks Casino, Pennsylvania's number

15
00:00:56,280 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 2: one casino. Yeah, Monday, we spent the entire day, the

16
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 2: entire time, talking about free agency, and we started looking

17
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 2: at some free agent catchers and it was not a

18
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 2: great list. So let's start with catching again. Just in

19
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,560
Speaker 2: case JT. Real Muto does not re sign, Let's look

20
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 2: at some of the trades. Tim Brittant actually at the

21
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,400
Speaker 2: Athletic that I want to mention this first. He does

22
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:25,680
Speaker 2: like a projected contracts for all, like the top free agents,

23
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 2: and his projection for JT. Real Muto is three years

24
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 2: forty five million dollars. Gun to your head, Ruben, Do

25
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 2: you do it right now?

26
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:36,639
Speaker 1: Yes?

27
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 2: Yes, I would too. I would do Jim fifteen.

28
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:40,680
Speaker 1: Yes, I do it.

29
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 3: Yeah.

30
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:47,319
Speaker 4: I think ideally it's like a two year thirty two million.

31
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 4: But if you got to get him off the market

32
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 4: with a fifteen million dollar AAV, I think you do

33
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 4: it because he's that.

34
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 5: Important to the team.

35
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 4: And I like this topic because we did free agents

36
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 4: the other day, and I see the Phillies route to

37
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 4: improvement this winter as a combination of the two.

38
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:11,359
Speaker 5: I think they can do a.

39
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,799
Speaker 4: I think they can do a significant free agent move

40
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 4: the more I think about it, because of the money

41
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 4: they were going to free up next year with Castianos

42
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 4: and Taiwan coming off the books. But I think they're

43
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,959
Speaker 4: also going to have to make a trade to get

44
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 4: another piece in here that helps you move forward.

45
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:28,399
Speaker 5: So perfect time.

46
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 2: So okay, So let's just say though that the Giants

47
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,640
Speaker 2: come calling or another team comes calling and they give

48
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 2: JT four years sixty and the Phillies say, we're out.

49
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 2: We can't do it. We can't go for year sixty. JT.

50
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:44,639
Speaker 2: We love you. Now they might have to make a trade.

51
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:48,079
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna throw some names out out at you guys,

52
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 2: Some maybe more tradeable than others. Adley Rushman, Sean Murphy

53
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 2: from the Braves, who would be a salary dump from Atlanta.

54
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 2: Hunter Goodman from the Rockies who had a great year

55
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 2: but probably cost you a lot. Ryan Jeffers from the Twins,

56
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:07,639
Speaker 2: pretty good catcher, is gonna be a free agent after

57
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:12,079
Speaker 2: next season. The Twins are in like rebuild mode. Any

58
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,880
Speaker 2: of those guys, any thoughts on those guys? What about

59
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 2: I mean, Ryan Jeffers free agent after twenty twenty six.

60
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,080
Speaker 2: What kind of float does he give you guys?

61
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 1: Medium flow for me?

62
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, pretty good offensive player.

63
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 4: You mentioned Murphy salary, don't Braves kind of remind you

64
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 4: a little bit of a different position, but maybe a

65
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:36,119
Speaker 4: little bit of Millwood?

66
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: Right, and we flip flopped Johnny Strataform moved a catcher

67
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 1: for Millwood. Yeah, it's interesting, it's a possibility. Not sure

68
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 1: if they would do it in Division, but they might

69
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 1: Alexandthopolis might consider it. What about a guy like Patrick Bailey,

70
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 1: doesn't he become available if the Giants go and get

71
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 1: mister mister real Mute and he's more of a defensive guy,

72
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 1: and they might want a more well rounded player in

73
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 1: real Muto. Although you know, I know money talks. They

74
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 1: have a new manager over there who's coming from college.

75
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 1: Does Real Muta want to go to that situation? I

76
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 1: don't know. I just don't know whether that guy is

77
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:40,280
Speaker 1: going to be somebody that a major winning player is

78
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,279
Speaker 1: going to want to play for. Not sure.

79
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,039
Speaker 3: Interesting interesting point to be.

80
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 1: An old school man on the lawn, but I'm not sure.

81
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 1: It'll be interesting to see what kind of players that

82
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:58,239
Speaker 1: they can attract with that guy at the helm.

83
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 4: Come come up at the end of March when we

84
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,800
Speaker 4: do our season look ahead. I mean, that's gonna be

85
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 4: one of the big storylines. How's Tony Votello, you know,

86
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 4: gonna handle the San Francisco Giants And he's got a

87
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,039
Speaker 4: hell of a resume, it's just at the college level.

88
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 4: He's built a hell of a program over there.

89
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 3: Just sticking with the cancer side, did you mention Hunter Goodman?

90
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,719
Speaker 2: I did mention mention Hunter Goodman. Now he had a

91
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 2: great year for the Rockies.

92
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 3: Interesting heavy flow.

93
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 2: Oh he yes. Now, now he's not gonna be cheap

94
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,479
Speaker 2: because he's got four years of team control remaining, so

95
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 2: you're gonna have to pay up something pretty significant. I

96
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,599
Speaker 2: would think to get him, but you never know what

97
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 2: the Rockies are gonna do. They could give him away

98
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 2: for free for all we know.

99
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 5: I don't think you'd give away a guy like that.

100
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,840
Speaker 1: They don't even know who the gym is going to

101
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:49,479
Speaker 1: be over there.

102
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:50,919
Speaker 3: But it is interesting.

103
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 1: Hunter Goodman is an asset and if they want to

104
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 1: get some pitching and they want to get some young,

105
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 1: controllable place yours, he's the kind of guy that you

106
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,160
Speaker 1: can move to do that. I don't know if the

107
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:09,360
Speaker 1: Phillies have those guys unless they feel like hey can

108
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 1: Justin Crawford and Aiden Miller be a couple of guys

109
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 1: that we would consider making a run at for Hunter Goodman?

110
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 1: Is that too heavy?

111
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 5: Too heavy for me?

112
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 4: I think with the history of the Rockies, with the

113
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 4: history of the Rockies, I think you only move a young, controllable.

114
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:31,719
Speaker 5: Guy like that at a premium position.

115
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 4: And I think you only move him for pitching, So

116
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,479
Speaker 4: I tend to think they might and what I'm saying,

117
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 4: he's young pitching, I think they might be prone to

118
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,919
Speaker 4: build around him. But he if he's available, I would

119
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:45,600
Speaker 4: be in on it.

120
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 1: Would you trade Andrew Painter for Hunter Goodman? Straight up?

121
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 3: No?

122
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 4: I would not, Okay, because Andrew Painter's going to be

123
00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 4: a real contributor here for a number of years, and

124
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 4: you know, bring back JT is just gonna cost you money.

125
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,200
Speaker 2: Agreed. I agree, these are I think these are all

126
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:08,839
Speaker 2: worst case. You know, you have to trade for a

127
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 2: catcher because JT leaves and the last one, last guy I

128
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 2: want to mention, So we mentioned Jeffers, Hunter Goodman, Shawn Murphy.

129
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 2: He has not played very well. He's hit it combined

130
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 2: one ninety seven six seventy six ops the last two years. Uh,

131
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 2: and he's expendable because Drake Baldwin's kind of emerged down

132
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 2: in Atlanta and kind of yeah, And so the last

133
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 2: guy is a lot of fans have asked Phillys fans

134
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 2: have asked about is the guy right down ninety five

135
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 2: athlete Rushman. He's interesting now. He he's under team control

136
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 2: through twenty twenty seven. So you would get two years

137
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:50,720
Speaker 2: of badly big name first overall pick. But the last

138
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 2: two seasons he's hit it combined two forty with a

139
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 2: six ninety six OPS. And the thing that's interesting to

140
00:07:56,520 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 2: me is his career OPS is about one hundred and

141
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 2: eleven is one hundred and eleven points lower at catcher

142
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 2: than at DH. So he spends a lot of time

143
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 2: hitting DH, he spends a lot of time catching. He

144
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 2: signs with the Phillies. He's going to be your catcher.

145
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 2: You're not trading for him to have him d age

146
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 2: forty fifty games. That's going to be Kyle Schwarber's job,

147
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 2: you hope. So you trade for Adley Rushman, what kind

148
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 2: of guy are you getting?

149
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,120
Speaker 1: That's so I'm going to have to delve into this

150
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 1: a little bit deeper. If I am, If I was

151
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 1: the GM, I have a relationship with a guy like

152
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 1: Freddie Gonzalez, who lived with the guy. He's a catching guy.

153
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: He was one of his coaches, watched him sort of

154
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 1: grow up as a major leaguer. I would have to

155
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 1: get a little bit more information from him to find

156
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 1: out does he run a great game, do.

157
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 2: The pitchers really like to work with him?

158
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 1: Does he get affected by not performing well offensively behind

159
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 1: the dit when he's behind the dish, all of those

160
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,800
Speaker 1: little pieces of information that I would try to glean,

161
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 1: I would certainly try to glean from a guy like Freddy,

162
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 1: for instance, just because he's out there. He's a free agent.

163
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 1: Freddie's not going to be back with Atlanta. But I

164
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:11,119
Speaker 1: just feel like you have to get pieces of information

165
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:15,680
Speaker 1: from people because if you don't, then you're not really

166
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 1: sure what you get from a position that is the

167
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 1: most vital position. I think that the Phillies could fill

168
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 1: one way or another because their strength is pitching, starting

169
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,319
Speaker 1: pitching in particular, and they need, really need somebody to

170
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 1: be able to handle that starting pitching. Now, this kid

171
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 1: may be great, he may be prepared, he may do

172
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 1: all the things that are necessary to be a championship

173
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 1: caliber catcher. They did win a division with him as

174
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: a catcher once, so he's been there and sort of

175
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:53,080
Speaker 1: done that. But does he handle all of that well?

176
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 1: Number one? Number two, one thing that I do think

177
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,559
Speaker 1: that has leaned on him a little bit and been

178
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 1: heavy on him is that he is a guy that

179
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 1: they've been counting on as the guy in Philadelphia. You

180
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,839
Speaker 1: don't have to be the guy. If you got Schwarber,

181
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:17,960
Speaker 1: Harper and Turner, those are the guys. This is just

182
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:22,360
Speaker 1: another guy, and he's not the guy for that team.

183
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 1: So maybe he can blend in a little bit, doesn't

184
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 1: have to take all the heat about, you know, being

185
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 1: the best offensive player. Maybe he can just concentrate on

186
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 1: being a really good defensive player. I don't know, there's

187
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 1: a lot of things to talk about. I think it's

188
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,080
Speaker 1: an important position. I know I took up a lot

189
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 1: of time here, but it's such an important position that

190
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,200
Speaker 1: there's a lot of things to think about when you're

191
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 1: trying to acquire a guy like that.

192
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:52,600
Speaker 4: He was not long ago a great marquee name, big

193
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 4: time prospect, cornerstone of a franchise type of young player.

194
00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:01,080
Speaker 4: And it is head scratching why it hasn't happened for

195
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 4: him down there, because he's had the opportunity. It's head

196
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 4: scratching that he's not their full time catcher all the

197
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 4: time that he goes to DH but might be a

198
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,719
Speaker 4: great change of scenery candidate. But I still still think

199
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,440
Speaker 4: he's close enough to that one to one status and

200
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 4: still has enough of a name where he going to

201
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,960
Speaker 4: cost you, he's going to cost a lot and what

202
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:23,440
Speaker 4: you have to give up, and you need to be

203
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 4: sure he's gonna be a good player for you. So

204
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,719
Speaker 4: but it's a it's a really interesting interesting name and

205
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 4: an interesting, interesting pedigree. And I think the Phillies acquired

206
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 4: j T at almost like the same age and same

207
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 4: point in his career two years from from becoming a

208
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 4: free agency. And look what happened to him here. He

209
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 4: really continued to blossom.

210
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 1: And so I mean the reason why he becomes sort

211
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 1: of possibly available and why you would think, you know,

212
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 1: their GM would go ahead, Mike Elias, Micha Elias would Sorry,

213
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:02,240
Speaker 1: I'm getting old, Mike Elias would would make the movies

214
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 1: because they have a premiere a mirror offensive catcher in

215
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:14,599
Speaker 1: the Latin American kid bar Barbosa whatever. I'm sorry, I

216
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:16,760
Speaker 1: apologize for the names. I don't have all this stuff

217
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,440
Speaker 1: in front of me. And they signed him, and they mean,

218
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,559
Speaker 1: this is a kid that's got a chance to be really,

219
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:23,559
Speaker 1: really really good for a long time.

220
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 2: Now.

221
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 1: I don't know if he's going to be. He seems

222
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 1: like he's going to be more of offensive player than

223
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 1: a defensive player. But he is a catcher who can

224
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:36,480
Speaker 1: swing that pole, and so that may very well make

225
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 1: this guy Adlie Rutchman an available, big time commodity that

226
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,679
Speaker 1: can be moved by Michaelias. So that's why we're that's

227
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 1: the only reason why we're talking about it, I think.

228
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 4: And they are another team that needs pitching. I don't

229
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 4: know how deep the Phillies can go beyond painter to

230
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,560
Speaker 4: at least intrigue the Orioles, but the Orioles need to

231
00:12:58,040 --> 00:12:59,360
Speaker 4: They need to put some pitching on.

232
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 1: This because they're offensive. Offensively, they've done well, but their

233
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,200
Speaker 1: pitching is real short, real short, right now.

234
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,319
Speaker 4: Alrighty, So we are off and running, having a lot

235
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 4: of fun talking about some potential trade candidates. And that

236
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 4: was first pitch presented exclusively by our partners at Parks Casino.

Speaker 3: Sixty five T shirts.

281
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's that many, gym let's not

282
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 2: over promised, but it's a lot. It's a lot of

283
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 2: T shirts. So okay, let's let's talk about second base.

284
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 2: Some trade candidates that play second base and uh kind

285
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 2: of like last week we mentioned I think we just

286
00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:00,160
Speaker 2: mentioned labor Tours as a free agent second base. When

287
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 2: you're like, why are we doing this? They have Bryson Stott,

288
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,440
Speaker 2: and yes they do, but you never know what the

289
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 2: Phillies are going to do this offseason. They have to

290
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,920
Speaker 2: be creative. Maybe the right piece comes along where you know,

291
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 2: somebody wants Bryce and Scott, it fills another need, and

292
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 2: then they make another trade. I don't know. Or maybe

293
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:16,320
Speaker 2: you take one of these guys you move in a

294
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:19,480
Speaker 2: different position. Who knows. But let's I'm going to talk

295
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 2: about three guys that are have been mentioned as possibilities.

296
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 2: Some may be more likely than others. And let's start

297
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 2: with the big one, Kettle Marte in Arizona, Morey. Now,

298
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 2: you say, why would the Diamondbacks trade Kettle Marte? And

299
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 2: from what I understand, they would have. Obviously they would

300
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 2: have to be overwhelmed to move him. But there's some

301
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 2: maybe clubhouse internal issues with Ketel. He you know, asks

302
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 2: for a lot of days off, supposedly doesn't like to

303
00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,680
Speaker 2: they grind it out and play every day, rub some

304
00:16:57,720 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 2: of his teammates the wrong way.

305
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 5: So that'll go over well in Philadelphia.

306
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly right.

307
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 3: But let me tell you what that won't go over

308
00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:09,040
Speaker 3: well in Philadelphia.

309
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:11,840
Speaker 1: But boy is he a talented son of a gun.

310
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:15,800
Speaker 5: Holds a right handed stick, right handed switch hitter.

311
00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:21,159
Speaker 1: He can do so many things. You don't like the

312
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,440
Speaker 1: fact that he's got some hamstring issues. He plays about

313
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:26,879
Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty five games a year instead of

314
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:31,560
Speaker 1: one hundred and sixty, right, averaging something like that. I

315
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 1: can't remember the actual numbers, something like that. I could

316
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:39,200
Speaker 1: be exaggerating, But is he talent pal for pale, maybe

317
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:45,119
Speaker 1: the strongest player in Major League Baseball. He's a tremendous

318
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:48,439
Speaker 1: I mean, he is wound like a I mean.

319
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 2: I mean, I say, Hazen from Arizona called Dave Nebraska says,

320
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,359
Speaker 2: you know what, we will listen on Ketl Martin. I

321
00:17:57,400 --> 00:17:59,119
Speaker 2: don't know what kind of package it would take to

322
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:01,200
Speaker 2: get him. It would, it would. I don't even know

323
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 2: if the Phillies would happen.

324
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,880
Speaker 1: I'bou toss him into center field, which he once did

325
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:05,800
Speaker 1: he did?

326
00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 2: Is he can he play center field? Is there a

327
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,520
Speaker 2: reason why he He's okay.

328
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:13,280
Speaker 1: I don't think he liked it. I'm not sure what

329
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 1: the all the whole problems, but they had a ton

330
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:18,800
Speaker 1: of center fielders. They got nothing bad athletes in the outfield,

331
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 1: so they didn't really need him to play centerfield. But

332
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,119
Speaker 1: the Phillies could take him in center field.

333
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 4: He's got a few years left on his deal right

334
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,880
Speaker 4: tod which he is signed.

335
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:33,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's got Yes.

336
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:34,680
Speaker 1: It's a pretty damn good deal.

337
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,439
Speaker 4: But he also I read some of those stories, and

338
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:43,159
Speaker 4: you know, I've heard very comfortable if he was like

339
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,879
Speaker 4: playing for his next deal, I might be more interested

340
00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,639
Speaker 4: in him. I like the player, I really I like

341
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 4: the talent, But you questioned the drive again.

342
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 1: This is one of those situations where you dig sort

343
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 1: of deep. You try to find out who knows him,

344
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:03,160
Speaker 1: who's played with him, who understands what makes him tick.

345
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:08,199
Speaker 1: Could be a little misunderstood. Could may not like playing

346
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 1: in Arizona, not the greatest place in the planet to play,

347
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:16,439
Speaker 1: because the fan base isn't that great. Would he be

348
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,000
Speaker 1: more fired up playing in the East Coast? Would he

349
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,639
Speaker 1: like to, you know, show off his wares a little

350
00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 1: bit more? There's a whole, you know, slew of things

351
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 1: that you just don't know about. But that's where digging

352
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 1: deep and getting into some of these guys psyche and

353
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:39,160
Speaker 1: having really good scouts who have done their digging can

354
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:40,439
Speaker 1: find out a little bit more about them.

355
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 3: But super talent, but a risk you're talking about makeup.

356
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 4: I mean, you gotta find out about a player's makeup

357
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 4: whether he's a high school senior and you're considering drafting him,

358
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 4: or a college junior, or a trade candidate or a

359
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:57,560
Speaker 4: minor leaguer you might acquire or pick up on waivers.

360
00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 3: Makeup means so much.

361
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 2: Rubin, Well, who's the most When you were GMing assistant

362
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:05,639
Speaker 2: GMing and you guys are going to make a trade,

363
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:10,159
Speaker 2: who is the most random random person you might have

364
00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:13,360
Speaker 2: contacted about a player? And I mean maybe you can't

365
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 2: come up with any specifically, but I mean I always

366
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,480
Speaker 2: heard that you guys would talk to the clubbies and

367
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 2: you know, obviously scouts, obviously people that you know in

368
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,120
Speaker 2: the game that may might have worked with the guy

369
00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:26,800
Speaker 2: or whatever. But you you really talk to a lot

370
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 2: of people, right, I mean when it comes to.

371
00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:31,400
Speaker 1: To well, I probably should have talked to even more.

372
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 1: I sometimes kicked myself on some guys because you you

373
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 1: have to make decisions, sometimes fairly quickly, and you don't

374
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:43,600
Speaker 1: get the entire piece, the entire piece of the pie

375
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:48,359
Speaker 1: as far as making the decisions. But you know, I

376
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 1: remember just calling certain guys who played with a guy,

377
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:57,640
Speaker 1: I like, people who know him intimately in the clubhouse and.

378
00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 3: Dugout behind the scenes guys.

379
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:04,720
Speaker 1: Behind the scenes guys. I probably should have called Kevin

380
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:09,480
Speaker 1: Steinauer a few more times than I did, because he's

381
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,360
Speaker 1: a visiting clubhouse guy. Probably should have leaned on him

382
00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:15,159
Speaker 1: a little bit more as well. But if I know

383
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 1: a if I knew a trainer, not to ask about

384
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:23,640
Speaker 1: the medical but if I knew a trainer who had

385
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,840
Speaker 1: dealt with him. Sometimes, knowing you hear a lot on

386
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:30,359
Speaker 1: that training table and in that training room, I would

387
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,640
Speaker 1: make a phone call from time to time with that,

388
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 1: with that guy and have a discussion like is this

389
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 1: guy okay? What's this guy like? What do he got

390
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 1: on him? I didn't mind doing that as well.

391
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 5: So well, Gillick was a master at that.

392
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:47,359
Speaker 1: You know I heard, I've ever seen.

393
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 5: I don't think this is an exception.

394
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,320
Speaker 4: He would if he knew the bus driver, he would

395
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:53,160
Speaker 4: ask the bus ter, how does he treat the little people?

396
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 1: No?

397
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 3: Seriously?

398
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:54,960
Speaker 5: Is he a d bag?

399
00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:55,800
Speaker 3: Is he a good guy?

400
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,760
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? He did it, Yeah, he

401
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:01,280
Speaker 1: did it to school coaches.

402
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 3: He was the story. Rubin, I think we can tell

403
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 3: the story.

404
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 4: You think you were thinking of signing the kid who

405
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:08,200
Speaker 4: pitched for the Tiger.

406
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,200
Speaker 1: Who's the right hand named Muller. I think Moller Muller,

407
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 1: Brian Moeller. I think it was Brian Mueller. He was

408
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:17,920
Speaker 1: a right hander. I'm sitting there in his office. I've

409
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,639
Speaker 1: never seen anything like this. He picked up the phone.

410
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 1: I think the kid pitched in like Utah or some

411
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:28,639
Speaker 1: obscure Minnesota. I can't remember where it was. Pat would remember.

412
00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 1: And I'm sitting there in his office and he picks

413
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,119
Speaker 1: up his phone. He doesn't even look into us. He

414
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 1: had this little black book. Didn't even look into his

415
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 1: black book, opens it. He didn't even open it up.

416
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 1: He took it out. But see, I think I remember

417
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:48,560
Speaker 1: this number, dingdingdingdingding. And he dials the number of the

418
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:52,200
Speaker 1: high school coach and said, because Moeller was coming back

419
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:58,120
Speaker 1: off of a surgery or an injury, and he goes, hey,

420
00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 1: is Brian working out at the there to your place?

421
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,520
Speaker 1: Because it was in the off season. He said, yeah,

422
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 1: how'd he look? Oh he's throwing good. You know it's good,

423
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,360
Speaker 1: he's you know, long tossing, and you know he's gone.

424
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:11,600
Speaker 1: Has he gone off the mout? I mean he's asking

425
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:15,600
Speaker 1: these questions. I'm going it was his high school coach

426
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:19,680
Speaker 1: that he saw that he knew when he was going

427
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 1: to draft him, when he was in the draft, and

428
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,199
Speaker 1: before he was drafted. I mean, that's the kind of

429
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 1: stuff that like made Pat Gillick a Hall of Famer.

430
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously he had so many different talents and

431
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:36,359
Speaker 1: did so well with being able to manage people and

432
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:41,560
Speaker 1: and and understanding putting pieces together. But the thing about

433
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,680
Speaker 1: him was that he had the ability and the mentality

434
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:49,399
Speaker 1: and to know how to find the information. He used

435
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 1: that fricking use that phone like a damn weapon, and

436
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 1: he weaponized that phone to the point where he could

437
00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,400
Speaker 1: do those sorts of things. And you know, you learn

438
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 1: from that. I mean obviously I learned some of that

439
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 1: from Ed Wade too, and trying to be as resourceful

440
00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:06,360
Speaker 1: as possible.

441
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:06,080
Speaker 2: But.

442
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:11,120
Speaker 1: Man, there's nothing like information rations power. And at times,

443
00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 1: you know, I kicked myself. I should have gotten more

444
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:14,560
Speaker 1: on certain guys well.

445
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 2: And for people that are listening to that story and going,

446
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 2: all right, Pat, there's no way Pat called that guy's

447
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 2: number from from his mind, just from straight off the

448
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,399
Speaker 2: top of his head. Oh no, I've seen him do it.

449
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,240
Speaker 2: When I was working on the Roy Holliday book, I

450
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,440
Speaker 2: was talking with the Pat right outside the press box

451
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 2: and clear Water, and I was talking about some of

452
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,679
Speaker 2: the Blue Jays scouts that had seen him in Denver,

453
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,480
Speaker 2: and he goes, oh, why don't you call uh blah

454
00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 2: blah blah six seven, three four two one mah blah

455
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:41,840
Speaker 2: blah blah blah. And they call this guy.

456
00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:45,200
Speaker 1: And I'm like, remember ized the OAG guys. Maybe he's

457
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 1: took a flight in the planet.

458
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:52,159
Speaker 2: I mean, Pat Gillick absolute genius, genius. I mean, was

459
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:57,680
Speaker 2: again telling me scouts phone numbers from the Roy Holliday Draft.

460
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:01,040
Speaker 2: You know, over twenty years ago he had their names

469
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:29,719
Speaker 1: So he gets more, he has more power, more power

470
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,359
Speaker 1: than then, you know, just flat out what is he

471
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:35,840
Speaker 1: like maybe average somewhere between twenty five and thirty home

472
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,040
Speaker 1: runs over the course.

473
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:38,480
Speaker 5: Of his career.

474
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:40,760
Speaker 1: Maybe you know, you've been not that high. He's got

475
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,640
Speaker 1: a little bit more power then then than does Stott.

476
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:48,280
Speaker 1: But to be honest with you, Stott, you know, if

477
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 1: you start comparing Stott to some of these other guys,

478
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 1: he doesn't really give me as much flow as Stott

479
00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:58,200
Speaker 1: does in some certain ways, even though Stott has had

480
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,760
Speaker 1: his ups and downs offensively for the team, because he's

481
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 1: so good defensively, man.

482
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:06,920
Speaker 2: And Brandon Lowe is not. He does not great out, not.

483
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:10,160
Speaker 1: Grad out well defensively, not nearly as good as stuff.

484
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:12,680
Speaker 2: Now here's a guy that I I would be interested

485
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:17,960
Speaker 2: in the Cardinals and Brendan Donovan. He's a he's a

486
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,399
Speaker 2: second baseman, but he also plays third base. He also

487
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,440
Speaker 2: plays in the outfield. He's under team control through twenty

488
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:27,840
Speaker 2: twenty seven. Uh, he doesn't chase a lot, doesn't swing

489
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 2: and miss a lot, doesn't strike out a lot. He

490
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:33,080
Speaker 2: also doesn't walk very much. But I like, you know,

491
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:35,000
Speaker 2: he can play all over the place, and so he'd

492
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 2: be kind of interesting.

493
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:41,119
Speaker 4: Great here left handed bat right. Yeah, Yeah, he's a

494
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:44,240
Speaker 4: good player. He's really I mean, an All Star season

495
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:48,240
Speaker 4: last year. Yeah, good player like him.

496
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:50,480
Speaker 1: That's a good name. I mean, he gives me flow,

497
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:51,720
Speaker 1: There's no question about it.

498
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:52,160
Speaker 5: I just.

499
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,200
Speaker 1: You know, if you're gonna move Stott, you better get

500
00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 1: something of quality back form. Whi's gonna have to be

501
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:03,159
Speaker 1: more than just you know, like a decent bullpen arm.

502
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,800
Speaker 1: It's gonna have to be a guy that can hand

503
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:09,160
Speaker 1: the baseball to Duran, you know what I'm saying, Somebody

504
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:13,480
Speaker 1: like that under control, like really good, really good exactly.

505
00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:16,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I don't know what kind of defense that

506
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,159
Speaker 2: Donovan can play at third base. And that brings us

507
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 2: to third base. And you know, Alec Bohm was obviously

508
00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:25,600
Speaker 2: talked a lot about last offseason. The Phillies tried to

509
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:27,719
Speaker 2: move him, didn't kind of get a lot of interest

510
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,280
Speaker 2: on him, and so they kept him. Maybe they tried

511
00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:31,720
Speaker 2: to move him again this year. I don't know what

512
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:34,840
Speaker 2: kind of interest will be in him this this offseason.

513
00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:38,159
Speaker 2: But there are a couple third basemen who could be

514
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,880
Speaker 2: available in the trade, and one is placed with the Cardinals,

515
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:45,719
Speaker 2: and that's Nolan Aernato, who's owed forty two million dollars

516
00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:49,280
Speaker 2: over the next two years, and he is on the decline.

517
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:51,680
Speaker 2: If you look at his offensive numbers of the past.

518
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, you'd have to pay it way way down.

519
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:58,560
Speaker 2: Way way down in now you just so they would

520
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 2: pay it way way down and just kind of like

521
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 2: you cross your fingers that he comes to Philly and

522
00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:04,720
Speaker 2: he finds the fountain of youth for one year and

523
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,480
Speaker 2: you win a world series. That seems kind of like

524
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:08,080
Speaker 2: a gamble.

525
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:11,399
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a big it's a big gamble.

526
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 1: He's a right handed bat, bounces things out a little bit.

527
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 1: That's a nice thing. Always a great defender. Not as

528
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:21,960
Speaker 1: elite as he once was, because he's slowing down physically

529
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:25,960
Speaker 1: a little bit. But I mean he's probably dead in

530
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:27,919
Speaker 1: the water there in Saint Louis, even though they have

531
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:30,160
Speaker 1: a nice little resturgeon at the end of the year.

532
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 1: I gotta believe hein Bloom. Are they Are they pronouncing

533
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 1: his name him still or are they?

534
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 2: I think.

535
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 1: I think it is him because some people I've heard

536
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:49,520
Speaker 1: other people refer to him as Kime Bloom. Like what anyway, Anyway,

537
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:53,120
Speaker 1: My point is, I think I think he's probably gonna

538
00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:55,960
Speaker 1: want to get him out, Yes, probably seeing it enough,

539
00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:59,360
Speaker 1: probably wants to get him out. I think Philly would

540
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 1: be the kind of place that he would go to.

541
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 1: He's already he's already said he's he's already done that

542
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 1: once going to Saint Louis from Colorado. So he's taking

543
00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 1: that off the table. So who knows, we'll see.

544
00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 3: So yeah, at one point, at one point it's like

545
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:20,120
Speaker 3: low flow.

546
00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 4: At one point, you know this is going back, so

547
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:24,160
Speaker 4: it's not really relevant.

548
00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:25,720
Speaker 5: Five six years ago, I thought.

549
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:28,880
Speaker 4: He was one of the most exciting players in baseball,

550
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 4: where he could drive it a round and just you know,

551
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:37,000
Speaker 4: make up Brooks Robinson, Mike Schmidt type, Scott Roland type

552
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 4: players at third base.

553
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:38,800
Speaker 5: What a what a.

554
00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:43,040
Speaker 2: Defender, Absolutely brilliant, so much fun to watch. He'll be

555
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:46,200
Speaker 2: thirty five next year now was eight years younger and

556
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 2: could possibly be traded is Houston third baseman Isaac Prad's

557
00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 2: and that is because Carlos Korey is coming back. They're

558
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 2: gonna play him at third base.

559
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:55,760
Speaker 1: Now.

560
00:29:55,760 --> 00:30:00,440
Speaker 2: The problem is I think the ass probably for to

561
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 2: trade Christian Walker. I don't know if they'll be able

562
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:05,680
Speaker 2: to do that, but say they can't get any action

563
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 2: on Walker, maybe they have to pivot and go to

564
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:12,160
Speaker 2: Paride's I guess, you know, you could maybe play Paridies

565
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,200
Speaker 2: at second base, but he had jose L two vase,

566
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,479
Speaker 2: so you know, I don't know, I don't know what

567
00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 2: you do there. But Parides is under control through twenty

568
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 2: twenty seven. And uh, you know, he doesn't Chase doesn't

569
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:28,360
Speaker 2: strike out a lot. He walks, you know, he hits.

570
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:32,360
Speaker 1: He's about I get a little concerned about that. D though.

571
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:36,400
Speaker 2: Yeah he's not. He's not a great defender. He's probably

572
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 2: like Alec Bohmish, maybe a little bit below that. I

573
00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:39,440
Speaker 2: don't know.

574
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:42,040
Speaker 1: I think he's a little below Alec Bouma. Alex made

575
00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:45,440
Speaker 1: himself a pretty steady fielder. I mean, who is credit.

576
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:50,120
Speaker 1: I I like the bat, no question about it. The

577
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:54,240
Speaker 1: Christian Walker thing spite starting excites me a little bit.

578
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:57,920
Speaker 1: And I know it was a big contract that he's signed,

579
00:30:57,920 --> 00:30:59,840
Speaker 1: and I know he did not he had a whole

580
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:03,720
Speaker 1: horrendous start for them and was digging a hole a

581
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:06,400
Speaker 1: doug outself a hole. But he's like a local guy.

582
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:08,640
Speaker 1: I think I'm taking.

583
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:10,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and he's a local guy.

584
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:14,960
Speaker 1: He's somebody I really like in the lineup to drive

585
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:18,680
Speaker 1: in a run. Man, he knows how to drive in runs.

586
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:22,560
Speaker 1: You can strike out some, but I just I don't know.

587
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 1: He just seems like a steady presence. I know that

588
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,680
Speaker 1: in Houston wasn't great for him. Maybe he wasn't right

589
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:32,840
Speaker 1: fit for whatever reason. And he can freaking pick it

590
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:36,040
Speaker 1: at first base. Do you move? Do you get him?

591
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:41,040
Speaker 1: And do you make Harper dh slash put him in right?

592
00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:46,280
Speaker 1: Would he do that for Christian Walker? Is he a

593
00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 1: client of Scott Morris's. I think it might be. I

594
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:54,920
Speaker 1: don't know. It's a question. I know we're going to

595
00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 1: first base and we were talking third base.

596
00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 5: But he's signed for one three more years Christian Walker.

597
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:02,600
Speaker 3: I think he was a three year.

598
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:03,320
Speaker 1: Deal, wasn't it.

599
00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, he signed twenty seven, three years, sixty million dollars deal,

600
00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 2: so he signed through the next next two years.

601
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:11,640
Speaker 5: Right handed power beat.

602
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:16,160
Speaker 4: If Harper would if you don't sign Schwarb or if

603
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:17,680
Speaker 4: Harper would move, it's intriguing.

604
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:21,760
Speaker 1: And you don't sign a guy like Alonso, I don't know,

605
00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 1: take on that money and hope that he bounces back

606
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:28,040
Speaker 1: and becomes the guy he was in Arizona. I like the.

607
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 2: Player man, I like him here.

608
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 1: I know he didn't have I know he had a

609
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 1: tough year, but I like the player and I like

610
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 1: the balance he creates.

611
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, he had last year was not great, below the average,

612
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:44,520
Speaker 2: but last three years in Arizona obviously very very good. Okay,

613
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:46,320
Speaker 2: So when we come back, Ruben's gonna tell us what's

614
00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:48,160
Speaker 2: going on at Parks Casino. We're gonna get into the

615
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:51,480
Speaker 2: outfield and maybe a little bit of itching. Ruben, what's

616

Speaker 2: going on these days at Parks Casino?

Speaker 1: You know, it is my number one that Parks Casino.

Speaker 1: It is my number one casino, and it is the

Speaker 1: number one casino in Pennsylvania. It's the casino of my

648
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:38,960
Speaker 2: let's look at the outfield. Now. The outfield is probably

649
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:40,880
Speaker 2: the place I shouldn't say probably the place. That's the

650
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:45,480
Speaker 2: place where the Phillies have the greatest opportunity for change.

651
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:48,600
Speaker 2: This is where they have the greatest opportunity for change.

652
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:53,480
Speaker 2: Nick castianis probably on the way out. You don't know

653
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:57,040
Speaker 2: if Harrison Vader is going to be back. He looks

654
00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:58,880
Speaker 2: like Justin Crawford is going to be in the mix.

655
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:02,680
Speaker 2: Brandon marsh is still on the team. You never know

656
00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,040
Speaker 2: what they do there. But there's a lot of opportunities

657
00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:08,040
Speaker 2: to shake up this outfield. And Jim, you mentioned a

658
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,200
Speaker 2: guy a couple of times now in the past week.

659
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:15,680
Speaker 2: Let's start with the big guy. Byron Buxton Minnesota. He

660
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:19,279
Speaker 2: said last July, no way, I'm not leaving Minnesota. Man.

661
00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:21,799
Speaker 2: I love it here. It's a you know, land of

662
00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:24,040
Speaker 2: ten thousand lakes. What's not the love other than the

663
00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:27,719
Speaker 2: miserable winners.

664
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:27,040
Speaker 5: The juicy Lucy.

665
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:31,200
Speaker 1: And you look at the juicy Lucy. That's saying that

666
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:33,880
Speaker 1: that burger is delicious, right, it's a burger, right, it's.

667
00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:37,120
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, you can't.

668
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:41,360
Speaker 4: Molten cheese in the middle. He burned it.

669
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:43,080
Speaker 1: It's almost dinner time for me here.

670
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 2: It's uh so. Byron Buckson has three years left on

671
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:52,239
Speaker 2: a six year, one hundred million dollars deal. And you say, wow,

672
00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 2: for a town like that that's pretty good. But man,

673
00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:58,120
Speaker 2: that guy gets hurt a lot. He gets hurt a lot,

674
00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:00,920
Speaker 2: a lot of soft tissue in you. But you know

675
00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:03,879
Speaker 2: what's amazing about him is he gets hurt a lot.

676
00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 2: And this guy is still one of the fastest base

677
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 2: runners in all baseball. If you had Byron Buckston and

678
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,239
Speaker 2: trade Turn on the team, you would literally have two,

679
00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:13,920
Speaker 2: like the top five fastest runners in Major League Baseball.

680
00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:16,239
Speaker 2: Be a hell of a thing to watch at the

681
00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:18,279
Speaker 2: top of the lineup. However, they hit him, so.

682
00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:22,040
Speaker 5: Hit some bombs here in Philadelphia.

683
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:25,360
Speaker 4: I know it's risky with the health history, but I

684
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:29,719
Speaker 4: think you can count me in favor of serious, seriously

685
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:31,320
Speaker 4: pursuing it.

686
00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:33,920
Speaker 1: It's a great It's a great idea, Jim. I love

687
00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:38,960
Speaker 1: the athleticism. I also like the fact that even though Schwarber,

688
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:42,440
Speaker 1: if they sign him back, is a DH, you know

689
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:45,520
Speaker 1: you can have this guy DH from time to time.

690
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:49,920
Speaker 1: You can slide this dude because you can put Schwarburn left.

691
00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:53,960
Speaker 1: Maybe on that day you have Crawford place center right.

692
00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:58,440
Speaker 1: I just like the idea of the right handed bat

693
00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:03,239
Speaker 1: with thunder and athleticism, and if you manage him right,

694
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 1: and if you put him on the field enough or

695
00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:11,520
Speaker 1: not so much that it you know, you you run

696
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:17,160
Speaker 1: that heavy risk of injury. He's an interesting fit to

697
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:20,120
Speaker 1: this team. I guarantee you had he like let it,

698
00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:22,840
Speaker 1: let go his no trade call clause, you'd have been gone.

699
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:26,839
Speaker 1: Last year. I mean, they traded the whole planet over

700
00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:30,799
Speaker 1: in Minnesota, everybody from Saint Paul to who knows what

701
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:40,799
Speaker 1: I mean, they traded everybody. So I gotta believe that

702
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:44,440
Speaker 1: if he would wave it and start off anew and

703
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:47,880
Speaker 1: would think that this is the right fit for himself. No,

704
00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:53,160
Speaker 1: I've taken good contract, heavy flow, even though he's an

705
00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:54,520
Speaker 1: injury prone heavy.

706
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:58,560
Speaker 2: Flow, heavy, heavy, heavy, So okay, let's go everything. Yeah, yeah,

707
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:02,279
Speaker 2: absolutely So. I was gonna say Gironduran because now I'm

708
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:05,879
Speaker 2: used to saying Joan Duran. How about Jared Durant from

709
00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:09,520
Speaker 2: the Red Sox. They have a glutton of outfielders, a

710
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:11,960
Speaker 2: glut of outfielders, and there's some talk that he could

711
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:16,360
Speaker 2: possibly be moved. He's controlled through twenty twenty eight. Struggled

712
00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:21,399
Speaker 2: a little bit last year. Uh didn't you know seven

713
00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:22,040
Speaker 2: to seventy.

714
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:25,839
Speaker 1: He had some personal stuff going on last year. I

715
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:29,240
Speaker 1: think it'd be I think he's one of those perfect

716
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:32,960
Speaker 1: I need a change of scenery dudes. And he's an

717
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:37,760
Speaker 1: energy guy totally. Like he's a dude that like he'll

718
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:41,120
Speaker 1: feed off the Philly fans miles.

719
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:43,520
Speaker 2: Now he bats left handed, though, do.

720
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:49,200
Speaker 1: We that's a little bit of a concern, but you know,

721
00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:51,799
Speaker 1: I have to delve it to some of the numbers

722
00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:55,960
Speaker 1: against you know, left ease, But damn, he's a good

723
00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 1: energy player, man, And he's a what what a.

724
00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:03,280
Speaker 2: Specialty is He was like an MVP candidate two years ago.

725
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:08,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, not that far not that far removed. And I

726
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 1: think there were some personal things that he went through,

727
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:14,279
Speaker 1: had to deal with some fans who were assholes to him,

728
00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:16,640
Speaker 1: I think, And it might have been in Boston, may

729
00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:21,759
Speaker 1: not have been. But you know, man, he's the type

730
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:25,600
Speaker 1: of player that I think Philly would really enjoy because

731
00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:27,960
Speaker 1: he's got some serious energy and vibes.

732
00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:31,520
Speaker 2: Yeah. The guy that the Phillies, a lot of Phillies

733
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:35,160
Speaker 2: fans were hoping they would get last year is Guardians

734
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:39,240
Speaker 2: left fielder Stephen Kwan, who was controlled through twenty twenty seven.

735
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:42,000
Speaker 2: Now you talk about it, you watch the Blue Jays

736
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:43,520
Speaker 2: playing in the World Series ago, they put the ball

737
00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:45,720
Speaker 2: in play, they didn't strike out man. That is Stephen

738
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 2: Kwan to a t. But you look at his last year,

739
00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:52,600
Speaker 2: he was like a below average offensive performer. He really

740
00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:55,080
Speaker 2: fell off from twenty twenty four, and you look at

741
00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:57,120
Speaker 2: his first four years of his career is really really

742
00:39:57,120 --> 00:40:01,280
Speaker 2: good blow league gaverage, really really good blow league average.

743
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:05,760
Speaker 2: So I guess, like you said, Jenner's risk with every player,

744
00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:09,320
Speaker 2: but Stephen Kwan, he would certainly give you more contact.

745
00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:10,880
Speaker 2: He's a great defender.

746
00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:18,320
Speaker 4: He they were on him in this summer. The Phillies

747
00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:24,160
Speaker 4: were on him, and I heard the Guardians almost said

748
00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:26,880
Speaker 4: the Indians would not get off the name Aiden Miller.

749
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:30,080
Speaker 4: So if they're still on that on that name, he

750
00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:33,200
Speaker 4: probably not going to get him. But it is I

751
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:36,560
Speaker 4: do look at you know, he doesn't strike out, and

752
00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:38,719
Speaker 4: that would be very appealing in this lineup to add

753
00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:41,880
Speaker 4: a bat that doesn't strike out. But he also doesn't

754
00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:44,520
Speaker 4: really slug. And you can say what you want about

755
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:48,840
Speaker 4: the Blue Jays putting the ball play, and I agree

756
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:50,200
Speaker 4: they led to majors in hitting.

757
00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:51,960
Speaker 5: They put the ball play. They don't strike out a lot,

758
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:52,600
Speaker 5: and that's great.

759
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:55,080
Speaker 4: Every game they want in the postseason they hit a

760
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:57,480
Speaker 4: home run, you know, so I would like to have

761
00:40:57,520 --> 00:40:58,919
Speaker 4: a little bit of slug as well.

762
00:40:58,960 --> 00:40:59,920
Speaker 5: I'm concerned that.

763
00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:03,920
Speaker 4: He was below league average across the kind of across

764
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:05,560
Speaker 4: the board offensively last year.

765
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:07,720
Speaker 5: But you know, there's a lot to like there.

766
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:12,240
Speaker 4: I'm sure Cleveland's gonna have a very high price on him.

767
00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:17,360
Speaker 1: And my question is this is where like the evaluation

768
00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:20,120
Speaker 1: on a guy like Justin Crawford becomes so important, like

769
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:23,120
Speaker 1: what he's going to be. Could he be a Stephen

770
00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:26,160
Speaker 1: Kwan with better speed. I don't know if he can

771
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:28,160
Speaker 1: be that type of hitter because I don't know he

772
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:30,759
Speaker 1: has the same bat to ball skills. But he does

773
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:34,960
Speaker 1: put the ball in play. He doesn't strike out a ton,

774
00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:38,320
Speaker 1: at least he doesn't a ton in the minors, different

775
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:41,400
Speaker 1: in the majors. I get it, But is it that

776
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:45,520
Speaker 1: much of an upgrade to move a really good quality

777
00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:48,879
Speaker 1: player or players to get him and pay for him

778
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:51,560
Speaker 1: and am under control for like what two years? Yea

779
00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:56,040
Speaker 1: through twenty years when you have a Justin Crawford sitting

780
00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:59,640
Speaker 1: in your back pocket and do you have that guy

781
00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:02,640
Speaker 1: be or left fielder and just you know what, let's go,

782
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:03,600
Speaker 1: let's roll them.

783
00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:06,000
Speaker 3: That's one time to find out right time to find

784
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:07,080
Speaker 3: out great point.

785
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:09,640
Speaker 2: So here's kind of a two for one because they

786
00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:12,240
Speaker 2: played the same team. How about Joe Adele and Taylor

787
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:16,640
Speaker 2: Ward from the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. Joe Adele

788
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:19,799
Speaker 2: controllable through twenty twenty seven. Taylor Ward will be a

789
00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:23,120
Speaker 2: free agent after next season. Joe Adell had a huge

790
00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:26,560
Speaker 2: breakout here last year. Big time, hits the ball hard,

791
00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:32,040
Speaker 2: but he chases a ton, strikes, swings and misses a ton,

792
00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:36,200
Speaker 2: strikes out a ton, does not walk a lot. He's

793
00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:39,440
Speaker 2: slowed down a bit, you know, on the bases and

794
00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:42,560
Speaker 2: defensively kind of took a bit of a dip last year.

795
00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:45,960
Speaker 2: And Taylor Ward good power. He strikes out a lot,

796
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:49,279
Speaker 2: but he also walks a lot, but has been his

797
00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:52,440
Speaker 2: batting average has dropped each of the last three seasons.

798
00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:54,799
Speaker 2: So and he either those two guys, both of them

799
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:55,560
Speaker 2: hit right handed.

800
00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:03,920
Speaker 4: Reward, you know, going through his walk here intrigued me

801
00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:04,399
Speaker 4: a little bit.

802
00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:08,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, And the fact that Adella is really it took

803
00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:10,480
Speaker 1: him a long time. Boy, We've been listening to this

804
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:14,560
Speaker 1: name for one hundred years, and he finally came through

805
00:43:14,600 --> 00:43:16,959
Speaker 1: and became a guy. I don't know what he did.

806
00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:19,799
Speaker 1: I don't know all the adjustments he made, but he

807
00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:21,040
Speaker 1: finally became a dude.

808
00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:23,719
Speaker 3: I'll take either one of.

809
00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:27,560
Speaker 1: Them over at Castianos right now as we as we

810
00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:33,879
Speaker 1: stand today, because of the defensive piece, the age, all

811
00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:38,439
Speaker 1: that stuff, I would certainly take those younger players over

812
00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:40,879
Speaker 1: Castiy at this stage of his.

813
00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:47,799
Speaker 2: Career, Luis Robert Jr. The White Sox come to trade him?

814
00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:50,520
Speaker 2: Are we out on him?

815
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:51,279
Speaker 5: That name?

816
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:56,120
Speaker 1: Right there?

817
00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:56,520
Speaker 5: You go?

818
00:43:56,960 --> 00:43:58,719
Speaker 2: No, man, Yeah, I hear you.

819
00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:01,920
Speaker 1: Any player, he could be a great player. Maybe he

820
00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:03,520
Speaker 1: becomes a great player, but I.

821
00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:05,880
Speaker 2: Want to give you a risk. I'm not giving up

822
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:07,920
Speaker 2: a lot for the guy, you know. I mean, you'd

823
00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:09,680
Speaker 2: look like an idiot if he continued to be the

824
00:44:09,680 --> 00:44:11,640
Speaker 2: player that he is. So I don't know what what

825
00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:13,920
Speaker 2: the White Sox would want for Luis Robert Junior.

826
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,880
Speaker 5: But and he's got twenty million dollars salary, right if

827
00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:17,360
Speaker 5: they pick.

828
00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:18,520
Speaker 2: It up, correct?

829
00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:23,759
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yes, if it's there's a risk for them

830
00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:25,400
Speaker 1: to pick it up because they I mean, can they

831
00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:27,480
Speaker 1: move him at twenty? Do they want twenty?

832
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:28,880
Speaker 3: Are they going to pick it up?

833
00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:30,880
Speaker 5: I guess maybe.

834
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:34,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, Maybe they don't. Yeah, maybe they don't. Okay, So

835
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:36,840
Speaker 2: here's an here's a name that might be surprising. But

836
00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:40,960
Speaker 2: my colleague at MLB dot com covers the Mariners, Daniel Kramer, said,

837
00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:45,320
Speaker 2: if there ends up being some sort of payroll crunch,

838
00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:49,040
Speaker 2: maybe the Mariners could look to trade Randy or Rose Arena.

839
00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:52,799
Speaker 2: Is that a name that interests you, guys. He's a

840
00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:56,280
Speaker 2: free agent after next season. Now, this season he betted

841
00:44:56,320 --> 00:45:00,520
Speaker 2: two twenty nine seven forty one oh ps. That's playing

842
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:02,400
Speaker 2: a lot of those games at Safego fields, So it

843
00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:05,239
Speaker 2: is actually that actually is a little bit deceiving. As

844
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:08,600
Speaker 2: ops plus, which accounts for that, was a one fourteen,

845
00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:12,960
Speaker 2: so he was above average offensive player, strikes out a lot,

846
00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:16,759
Speaker 2: doesn't walk a lot. It's had some good postseasons.

847
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:19,920
Speaker 4: In that in that he's a right handed bat and

848
00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:22,800
Speaker 4: has said some you know, productive years, there would be

849
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:26,960
Speaker 4: some interest, but certainly in looking into it, but he'd

850
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:29,600
Speaker 4: be down my depth charge in terms in terms of

851
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:33,239
Speaker 4: terms of targets. I would have a number of right

852
00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:35,080
Speaker 4: handed bats in front of him.

853
00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:38,840
Speaker 1: I like the right handed bat. I like his pedigree.

854
00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:41,120
Speaker 1: I don't like the fact that he had the year

855
00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:47,239
Speaker 1: that he had, but was Seattle places for him. I

856
00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:50,920
Speaker 1: had a feeling that like there's something about playing in

857
00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:54,640
Speaker 1: Seattle in the Northwest for him, that wasn't really super appealing.

858
00:45:55,920 --> 00:45:59,840
Speaker 1: I could be totally off base. Maybe gets back in

859
00:45:59,880 --> 00:46:04,520
Speaker 1: the East coach more comfortable, maybe a little closer to home.

860
00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:08,040
Speaker 1: Maybe he likes that a little bit more. Maybe that

861
00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:12,120
Speaker 1: sparks his energy. Maybe he's playing. Is he playing for

862
00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:15,319
Speaker 1: a contract, he's got one more year. I think all

863
00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:19,080
Speaker 1: those things are big. And he's got pedigree. Man, he's

864
00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:22,759
Speaker 1: been there, he's won some so he's played in you know,

865
00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:26,920
Speaker 1: playoffs and stuff, so he'll post up. I like him.

866
00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:31,200
Speaker 2: Last last outfielder that I'm mentioning is And and for

867
00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:33,680
Speaker 2: those listening and watching, if you if you've you know

868
00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:36,279
Speaker 2: you you feel like we miss somebody, or you want

869
00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:38,680
Speaker 2: us to tackle somebody, to send us a little note,

870
00:46:38,719 --> 00:46:41,640
Speaker 2: drop it in the comments and YouTube or on social

871
00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:45,680
Speaker 2: media on Twitter and Blue Sky and threads wherever, and

872
00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:48,399
Speaker 2: maybe we'll circle back. We'll circle back. So last guy

873
00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:50,200
Speaker 2: I have is just because he's kind of a World

874
00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:53,400
Speaker 2: Series hero. He's had some big moments and that's a dollars.

875
00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:58,600
Speaker 2: Garcia with the Rangers thirty three next year, free agent

876
00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:02,920
Speaker 2: after next season, but the last two years a combined

877
00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:07,720
Speaker 2: two twenty five batting average a six seventy five ops,

878
00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:12,239
Speaker 2: strikes out a ton doesn't walk a lot. You got

879
00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:14,839
Speaker 2: like a guy that chases and whiffs a lot, hit

880
00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:16,279
Speaker 2: some bombs from time to time.

881
00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:19,600
Speaker 5: What's the old money was that?

882
00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:21,560
Speaker 2: I don't have that at the top of my head.

883
00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:23,640
Speaker 5: I don't have a lot of flow there.

884
00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:25,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's very low flow.

885
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:30,799
Speaker 1: But I mean, listen, at the end of the day,

886
00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:33,319
Speaker 1: he may be a guy that in February, you don't

887
00:47:33,360 --> 00:47:35,399
Speaker 1: really make a move and get it right handed. Bat

888
00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:40,080
Speaker 1: You're sitting there going, hey, man, give them to me,

889
00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:43,080
Speaker 1: if you If you hand them over to me and

890
00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:46,719
Speaker 1: I have the payroll for him, I'm not gonna say no.

891
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:51,520
Speaker 1: If I don't really have anybody else that I can

892
00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:55,279
Speaker 1: slide out there in the outfield and uh and hit

893
00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:55,920
Speaker 1: right handed.

894
00:47:57,160 --> 00:48:00,839
Speaker 2: Well, he's our our eligible gym. So that hasn't that

895
00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:02,719
Speaker 2: number has not been decided, So I.

896
00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:03,520
Speaker 1: Hasn't been decided.

897
00:48:03,719 --> 00:48:07,920
Speaker 5: Okay, well yeah, still if you have you may.

898
00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:12,360
Speaker 1: You may end up being a non tender. Oh that

899
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:15,040
Speaker 1: would be Yeah, he could end up being a non tender.

900
00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:17,640
Speaker 1: So I mean that's you know that that can happen,

901
00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:22,280
Speaker 1: and or or a late late like what is it

902
00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:25,760
Speaker 1: December fourth, When do you have to tender the players?

903
00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:28,560
Speaker 2: I think it's oh man, I actually race.

904
00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:30,879
Speaker 5: December fifth, definitely a Friday night.

905
00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:34,520
Speaker 2: Actually, the non tender deadline is actually like I think

906
00:48:34,560 --> 00:48:35,759
Speaker 2: November eighteenth.

907
00:48:36,080 --> 00:48:40,719
Speaker 1: Oh, okay, so November. Yeah, so November eighteenth or nineteen first. First,

908
00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:44,680
Speaker 1: you may see some interesting names out there or for

909
00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:47,200
Speaker 1: teams that don't want to deal with that arbitration process

910
00:48:47,239 --> 00:48:51,560
Speaker 1: and think that those players are not worth what the

911
00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:54,560
Speaker 1: arbitration process would deem.

912
00:48:54,800 --> 00:49:01,400
Speaker 5: Yes, his nickname is El Bambi, that the bomb.

913
00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:05,840
Speaker 2: So here we go. Let's wrap this up with some pitching.

914
00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:08,280
Speaker 2: And I'm just gonna throw out these starting pitchers because

915
00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:10,640
Speaker 2: I my gut tells me they're not going to go

916
00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:12,479
Speaker 2: out and make a big trade for a starting pitcher.

917
00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:14,719
Speaker 2: I mean, if you're gonna let Ranger Suarez walk and

918
00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:16,600
Speaker 2: you know you have all these guys coming back. But

919
00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:19,200
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna mention some of the guys, the names

920
00:49:19,239 --> 00:49:21,520
Speaker 2: that could be out there that could be dealt this offseason.

921
00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:24,520
Speaker 2: We talked about Trek schoobl a couple of weeks ago.

922
00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:28,880
Speaker 2: Is like a kind of a fun thought if they

923
00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:35,200
Speaker 2: could actually make that happen, and you guys were like, yes, er.

924
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:41,080
Speaker 4: Rubins in, I think so is the New York Mets, the.

925
00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:43,759
Speaker 1: New York You guys know, you guys know how I

926
00:49:43,800 --> 00:49:47,319
Speaker 1: feel about pitching and how important it is. Come and

927
00:49:47,400 --> 00:49:50,440
Speaker 1: you acquire. I mean, you're talking about having the three

928
00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:56,120
Speaker 1: three of the best, like top ten left handed pitchers

929
00:49:56,120 --> 00:50:00,719
Speaker 1: and baseball starters. If you get him, your wrote in

930
00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:07,399
Speaker 1: your rotation. I'm all about the talent, and I love

931
00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:07,959
Speaker 1: this dude.

932
00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:13,320
