Let's start, 21 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 1: guys today. GM meetings wrap up today in beautiful San Antonio, 22 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:13,399 Speaker 1: and not a lot of craziness has come out of it. 23 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: But I just and Dave Dombrowski talked on Tuesday to 24 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:18,640 Speaker 1: the Phillies beat writers there. I'm not at the GM 25 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 1: meetings this week, but he talked to the athletic Matt 26 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,120 Speaker 1: Gelb and Scott Lauber and Locklan Merch from the inquir 27 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 1: and didn't really say anything crazy or noteworthy necessarily. And 28 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: he then did the big open group session yesterday in 29 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,039 Speaker 1: San Antonio, which is open to everybody in the media. Again, 30 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,680 Speaker 1: didn't really say anything or shattering, but I wanted to 31 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,319 Speaker 1: get your guys opinion on this because this is a 32 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 1: particular phrasing that Dave has used in the session with 33 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: the Philly writers and Philly reporters in Philly media in 34 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 1: October Tuesday. Again Wednesday, again he gave this quote, we 35 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 1: need to be more open minded about possible moves. He 36 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 1: has said open minded probably five six seven times in 37 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 1: his three media availabilities since the end of the season. 38 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 1: Really sounds like somebody who is gunning to make a 39 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: trade or is going to make a trade. 40 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 5: That is my read on it. 41 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 1: You know, Jim, you know, as a beat writer you 42 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 1: kind of pick up on the way the cadence of 43 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 1: how the people that you cover talk. And Dave doesn't 44 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 1: say open minded a lot, and he certainly doesn't ram 45 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 1: at home like he has been. Sounds like again a 46 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: trade Alec Boem, Brandon Marsh, somebody like that could be 47 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 1: dealt this offseason. 48 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 2: Absolutely, that's what I'm picking up. And I think we 49 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 2: thought that all along, because there's roster inflexibility, because of 50 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 2: the age of players, because of the contract status, because 51 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 2: of the money owed. Just you know, there's a lot 52 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 2: of guys that are immovable. He says, open minded, not 53 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 2: open wallet. They've spent a lot of money in recent seasons, 54 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 2: and I just don't see that. You know, three hundred 55 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 2: million dollars plus six spenditure this winter, So they're gonna 56 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 2: they can't run it back. They ran it back last year. 57 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 2: They were a quick out in the postseason, very disappointing 58 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 2: for everyone. They need to make changes, need to make tweaks, 59 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 2: need to make improvements. And yeah, when I hear open minded, 60 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 2: I'm thinking trades. And and you know, he's kind of 61 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 2: letting me in that he's open to maybe dealing a prospect. 62 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,079 Speaker 2: He's opened a dealing from his twenty five man rosters, 63 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 2: forty man roster, and you could see a guy who 64 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 2: was in the opening day lineup last year, moving on 65 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 2: to me that really, you know, the guys with value 66 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 2: or boem Stott Ranger, even though Ranger didn't pitch well 67 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 2: second half. So I think that those are the areas 68 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 2: he needs to hear. He probably is referring to when 69 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 2: he's when he says he's open minded. H So I 70 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 2: felt all along that this is this roster is kind 71 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 2: of prime for trade. Shake things up a little bit, 72 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 2: try to inch it forward where you can and see 73 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 2: what happens. And he certainly seems to be hinting towards. 74 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 5: That at first and foremost. 75 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 3: Did you guys pick up on my cadence when I 76 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 3: was a GM, like when I was going to be 77 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 3: moving or you know, shaking and bacon or what. 78 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm kind of curious. 79 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, I did you know? 80 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: I Well, Ruben, I think I might have mentioned this 81 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: story before when you were about to. 82 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 5: Sign Cliff Lee. 83 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: I know you were in Arizona, right like talking to 84 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 1: Ben Francisco or something like that. 85 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 5: I get dinner with him. 86 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 1: And usually if a rumor was just total garbage, you 87 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: would say not ridiculous, ridiculous or whatever you would say, 88 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: right like, if it was total garbage, you would kind of. 89 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 5: Dump on it. 90 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: I remember calling you that night and I said, you know, 91 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:37,799 Speaker 1: there's these reports that things have heated up with Clifflee, 92 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: and like Todd, I do not talk about rumors and 93 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: free agents. You know that it's against the rules. I'm 94 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 1: not commenting on any free agent pursuits. 95 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 5: I don't do that. I'm like, that was that was 96 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 5: my tell? That was your tell? 97 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,799 Speaker 1: So it's like, but actually I remember asking us. I said, Ruben, 98 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: if it's usually if it's garbage, you'll say it's garbage. 99 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 5: You go, I don't do that stuff. I don't do that. 100 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 5: Souff's like hung up to the punt. 101 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,160 Speaker 4: I'm like, oh, something going down or something's going down 102 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 4: in the next few days. And uh, you guys, I 103 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 4: used to always uh. 104 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 2: I used to say, uh, so does this guy give 105 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 2: you any blood flow? 106 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 4: And you'd say, no flow? How about how about this guy? 107 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 4: You go moderate flow? 108 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 2: So I I would know to keep an eye on 109 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 2: a guy who gave you moderate flow. 110 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:26,279 Speaker 1: And uh, but you yeah, that is hilarious. 111 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 3: But yeah, but I mean that's that's the beauty of 112 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 3: what you guys do, is that you have the ability 113 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 3: to know to know us and to and to pick 114 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 3: up on some of those things. And that's, uh, that's 115 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,159 Speaker 3: probably what sets you guys apart as as journalists. So 116 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:41,159 Speaker 3: h and that's why I respect you so much and 117 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 3: why I'm on this podcast with you guys. 118 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 5: Yeah. 119 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 3: Thanks anyway, No, I I just just wanted to I 120 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:50,119 Speaker 3: just wanted to actually say this that about the GM 121 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 3: meanings truly. Typically you don't have a ton of stuff 122 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 3: going on there. Every once in a while you'll finalize 123 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 3: a deal that you've been maybe talking about. You so 124 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 3: you saw what to Alex Anthopolis and perryman Aci and 125 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 3: got a chance to do as far as you know, 126 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 3: because they have a relationship, they were assistant GM GM, 127 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 3: they work together and they ended up getting a deal 128 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,279 Speaker 3: with sol Aaron Canning. But typically you don't get deals 129 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,919 Speaker 3: done there. You sort of set things up to roll. 130 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 3: But as far as what Dave Dombrowski said, I think 131 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 3: that was it was an important piece of information that 132 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 3: I do believe that this team cannot run. This team 133 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 3: back talked to some people internally about it, and there's 134 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 3: some questions about whether or not these guys are you know, 135 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 3: the core players you're talking about the real Muto's. 136 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 5: The Harper's Schworebers. 137 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:41,279 Speaker 3: And Castillano's that that group with who have a lot 138 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 3: of money and Turner attached to them, whether they're really 139 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 3: good enough or young enough to be able to carry 140 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 3: this team for the next couple of years. There's some 141 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,160 Speaker 3: question about you know, JT kind of fell off a 142 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 3: little bit, and it looks is it a physical thing? 143 00:06:58,720 --> 00:06:59,039 Speaker 5: Is it not? 144 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,279 Speaker 3: I mean about the fact that he's not going to 145 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 3: play as much, that kind of stuff. So it's interesting 146 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 3: because we went into the same sort of mode in 147 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:10,679 Speaker 3: twenty eleven twenty twelve, like, Okay, where do we go now? 148 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 5: Can we keep this team together? 149 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 3: And that's where you see Dombrowski talk about being open minded. 150 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 5: Now. I think that he may consider coupling. 151 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 3: Now. I don't know if it's the right thing or 152 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 3: the wrong thing to do, but they may couple some guys. 153 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 3: Maybe he goes Stott and Castillanos and send them somewhere 154 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 3: to open up the first strings a little, to do 155 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 3: some different sort of things. 156 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 5: So it'll be interesting to see. 157 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 3: How creative Dave Dombrowski will be, how much payroll is 158 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 3: a real issue, and how much they want to sort 159 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 3: of maneuver the team around and make it a little different, 160 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 3: because I do believe that running it back would probably 161 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 3: not be the right thing to do. It's clear that 162 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 3: it's not a good enough team yet it's a really 163 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 3: talented team. Is it a good enough team to get 164 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 3: to the World Series and bring home a trophy to Middleton? 165 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 3: And I think it's you know, Dave de Browski's going 166 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 3: to be a little bit more open minded, as he said, 167 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 3: but also, you know, I think that there's going to 168 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 3: be some twists and turns during the course of this 169 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 3: during the course of this offseason, I still remain really 170 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 3: steadfast about this. They've got to create starting pitching depth, 171 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 3: and they have to create quality in the bullpen because 172 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,239 Speaker 3: they're short. They've lost two very very strong guys back there. 173 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,439 Speaker 3: So pitching pitching, pitching, and if they have to maneuver 174 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 3: a bomb or a Stot or someone like that for 175 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 3: pitching and to improve in some way, shape or form. 176 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 3: I think that's something that Dave Debrowski's going to be 177 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 3: focusing on. 178 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 1: Well, that's something that Dave said yesterday in the group session. 179 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 1: He says, we don't have a fifth starter right now. 180 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 1: We're going to need somebody to fill another starting pitcher's role. 181 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 1: He reiterated, Tianwan Walk is not going me handed the job. 182 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 5: We know that. 183 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:56,959 Speaker 1: But you know, there are some free agent pitchers that 184 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 1: are out there that maybe could hold the Ford down 185 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:03,560 Speaker 1: until Andrew Painters ready, or they could trade Ranger Suarez 186 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 1: and sign a guy or two, you know, to to 187 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:07,560 Speaker 1: do something, you know, to fill a couple of needs. 188 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:09,319 Speaker 5: So lot you know. 189 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 4: To me that you need a number five starter. That's 190 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:12,559 Speaker 4: not earthshaking. 191 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 2: Now, all the years, in all the years that we've 192 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 2: covered the Phillies, Todd, how many years were they looking 193 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 2: to bill starting pitching depth? 194 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,720 Speaker 4: How many years were they looking for a backand starter 195 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 4: every year? 196 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 5: So this is no different. But it's more like the sixth, seventh, 197 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 5: and eighth guys. 198 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 3: For me, it's not because, I mean, let's look at it. 199 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,959 Speaker 3: You have Wheeler and Nola and they've been really healthy 200 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:36,319 Speaker 3: and not good for the Phillies. 201 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 5: I mean, they've been healthy. 202 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:39,679 Speaker 3: If they're not healthy over the next couple of years, 203 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 3: my goodness, it's a real toll on that team. And 204 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 3: so I think it's so super important for them to 205 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 3: to really shore up their their depth overall, not just 206 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 3: a bit starter, but beyond that right. 207 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 2: And we've been saying that all for months now. They 208 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 2: need a six, they need a seven, they need eight 209 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 2: because you use them all. 210 00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 1: And we saw it just some uh Dave, you know, 211 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: of course, like we need a high leverage reliever right hander, 212 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 1: we need an outfielder. He was asked yesterday will you 213 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 1: be big game hunting this winter? And this was his quote. 214 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 1: Our ownership allows us to do a lot of things, 215 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 1: but sometimes that's not what you need. We have a 216 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 1: lot of good star players on our team, so read 217 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 1: that as you would. That's just more Wan Soda talk, 218 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,560 Speaker 1: basically saying, you know, we're going to dip our toe 219 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,960 Speaker 1: in the water. We had a whole episode on Tuesday. 220 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 1: We spent Tuesday's that entire episode on one Soda. So 221 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:30,439 Speaker 1: if you want to know our thoughts on mon soda, 222 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 1: go back and go back and check check out on out, 223 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:35,840 Speaker 1: check it out, and we will be right back. 224 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:37,599 Speaker 6: I love a great deal, but I'm not going to 225 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,079 Speaker 6: run sprints in the outfield just to save a few bucks. 226 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,680 Speaker 6: It has to be easy, no hoops, no bs.

I want to 246 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 1: mention Scott Boris had his session yesterday, which is always 247 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 1: or you know, I think it was yesterday or two 248 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,960 Speaker 1: days ago, always entertaining. He did have one comment on 249 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 1: Bryce Harper. He was asked about the Bryce Harper extension, 250 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 1: which Scott mentioned last year at the winter meetings. He said, 251 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 1: Bryce has certainly let it known to everyone ownership that 252 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 1: he wants to finalize his stension in Philadelphia, and we've 253 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 1: certainly let them know that we're ready to pursue that. 254 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 5: It means nothing. Blob blah blah blah. 255 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 4: Just wanted to bring it up. 256 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 5: He's Bryce. 257 00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:15,319 Speaker 1: This year's being the seventh year of his three hundred 258 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,840 Speaker 1: and thirty million dollar deals, still the eighth biggest contract 259 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 1: guaranteed deal ever signed in baseball, but it's forty seventh 260 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 1: in total AAV and average average annual values. So he's 261 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 1: falling down the list on AAV and I know Scott 262 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: would like to get that number boosted a little bit. 263 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 5: It's not gonna get boosted. In fact, it's gonna go down. 264 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 3: You think it's gonna keep going down, Yeah it is. 265 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 3: I mean, as you get to older, how's it gonna 266 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 3: get an AAV that's north of that? I just don't 267 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 3: see it unless they squeeze the contract. I mean, and 268 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 3: that's not gonnappen. I'm gonna take years off of the contract, 269 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 3: So that's not happening. 270 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, So we asked for listener questions. Viewer questions, You 271 00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 1: guys want to answer a few here? 272 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, let's do. 273 00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 1: Uh, this is Robert rich On x. Alex Bregman seems 274 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 1: like the perfect intermediary option versus the whale known as one. 275 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: So do if they were able to trade Bom and 276 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 1: acquire Bregman? What would that do to aiden Miller's path 277 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 1: to the big leagues? 278 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 2: Jim Well, First of all, Bregman has a qualifying offer. 279 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 2: I think that would probably give the Phillies pause. 280 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 4: Don't you, Todd? 281 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, I do. 282 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 7: Uh. 283 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 4: The Astros want him back. They're trying. So I don't 284 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 4: know how realistic that is. 285 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 2: But if you cement Bregman in a third for a while, 286 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 2: you got Turner at under contract for a while. But I, 287 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,720 Speaker 2: you know, I still think there's a day he moves 288 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 2: off shortstop, not not this year. So and Preston Mattingly 289 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 2: told us last week that Miller is gonna get some 290 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 2: reps at second base. 291 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,839 Speaker 4: I'm not sure it does a lot to his path. 292 00:13:54,920 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 2: He still has, you know, positional options that they can 293 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,200 Speaker 2: slot him and if he's ready and he's produced, and 294 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 2: they're going to find a spot for him. So I 295 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 2: think it would have minimal impact. It just would probably 296 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 2: impact at third base, where a lot of people think 297 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,840 Speaker 2: he's gonna end up, But like he is a shortstop 298 00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 2: and he might play some second base. It in terms 299 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 2: of his time Tiller, it wouldn't worry me. But I 300 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 2: just don't know that Bregmant is that realistic with that 301 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 2: qualifying offer, because you're gonna have to give up your 302 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 2: second you know, your second pick and your fifth pick, 303 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 2: or your second highest pick and your fifth highest pick, 304 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 2: and they need to get draft picks and build for 305 00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 2: the draft as well, so it's a tough one. 306 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 3: I do like like Alex Bregman a lot of like 307 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 3: for for this lineup because he sort of fits the bill. 308 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 5: And want some guy with a. 309 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 3: Little bit more contact, you know, a little He's obviously 310 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 3: got pedigree. I love the player. You can do a 311 00:14:57,920 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 3: lot of different things. You can blame more than third 312 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 3: base too. He could probably play shorter seconds so he 313 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 3: can bounce around. That said, I don't think it would 314 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 3: stunt Aiden Miller's growth. I think that the Aiden Miller's 315 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 3: going to get an opportunity, whether it's in the infield 316 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 3: or outfield. I think he's instinctive enough to be able 317 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 3: to maybe even play the outfield if necessary, So I 318 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 3: don't think that will stunt his growth either way. But 319 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 3: I just don't see it happening because I think Houston 320 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 3: wants to really sign him back. They want to continue 321 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:22,520 Speaker 3: to be good. 322 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 1: This one's a little out of left field, but it 323 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:28,320 Speaker 1: was something that's been mentioned a lot in previous offseasons, 324 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 1: so I figured why not roll it out? There is 325 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: from true rolled Putts on X. What kind of package 326 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 1: deal would it take to lure Trout from the Angels? 327 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 1: My vote is Nola Stott and McGarry or Abel. Now 328 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 1: Mike Trout is going to be getting the seventh year 329 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 1: of a ten year, three hundred and sixty million dollar deal. 330 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: I asked a couple of people remember last off season 331 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 1: about Trout, and immediately I was told, guys hurt all 332 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: the time. Guy's hurt all the time, and he's owed 333 00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 1: a ton of money. He's hurt all the time, and 334 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 1: he's owed a ton of money. 335 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 5: But uh, what do you like about it? I'll go 336 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 5: I'll go here. I think that Mike. 337 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 3: Trout might have a great deal of respect for what 338 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 3: he's done in the game, but the fact that he 339 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 3: is declining a little bit as a player, but also 340 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 3: his availability. Man, he just cannot you can't. This is 341 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 3: not the right type of guy for this team. You 342 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 3: need somebody different. It's just not going to happen as 343 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 3: as much as people want him. Because he's sort of 344 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 3: a local guy and he's an Eagles fan. That doesn't 345 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 3: mean crap. The reality of it is is he's just 346 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 3: not on the field enough. And I know he wants 347 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 3: to be on the field, it's just not there. 348 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 2: So, like you taught, that's a significant package. And the 349 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 2: fact that would be impacted by how much money they 350 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 2: picked up or the Angels aid and the Phillies picked up. 351 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 5: So I mean, if they want to send Taiwan Walker. 352 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 3: That there, that way, and then and then and then 353 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 3: the Angels want to even out the money somehow. 354 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, of course, because you're going. 355 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,919 Speaker 3: You know, basically a player is not going to impact you, 356 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 3: and you know, but I mean that's something. 357 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:15,440 Speaker 1: Bucks, right, He's beginning to say, well, whatever the math is, 358 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:17,919 Speaker 1: he's in the beginning of the seventh year next year 359 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 1: of a three hundred and sixty million dollar deals, so 360 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:21,639 Speaker 1: he's got yeah, probably. 361 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 4: Two Yeah, the hell in ability to get on feeling 362 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:25,200 Speaker 4: the money. 363 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 2: I mean, to Taiwan Walker, that's a pittance at eighteen 364 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 2: million compared to what he's owed. I just, yeah, I 365 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 2: don't see that happening. 366 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:39,719 Speaker 1: No, that's not b Quinn seven two on X. How 367 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,400 Speaker 1: much say does John Middleton have and what the Phillies 368 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 1: do this offseason? Does he give suggestions to Dombrowski or 369 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 1: does he sit back and just let Dave run the show. 370 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:53,880 Speaker 1: I mean, in conversations I've had with John, he has reiterated, unprompted, 371 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,359 Speaker 1: over and over. I don't call Dave and say I 372 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,359 Speaker 1: want you to sign this guy, this guy, this guy. 373 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:00,879 Speaker 1: He's like, Dave will come to me and make a 374 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:03,640 Speaker 1: pitch for a guy, and then I will say, okay, yes, 375 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 1: let's do it. 376 00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:04,640 Speaker 5: He says. 377 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,199 Speaker 1: He almost always says yes if Dave wants to make 378 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 1: a move on somebody. I don't think Dave is sitting 379 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 1: there going you know what. I think, Let's go out 380 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 1: and get Walker Bueller on a one year deal. Let's 381 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:17,160 Speaker 1: go out and get this guy to play third base. 382 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 1: Let's go out and get this guy to play left field. 383 00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:20,400 Speaker 1: Do you guys see it differently? 384 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:23,399 Speaker 4: I think I think John's the boss, and if you 385 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:24,440 Speaker 4: want something done. 386 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,439 Speaker 2: Dave's gonna do it. But I also think it's the 387 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 2: relationship really built on trust and and John really trusts 388 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:35,120 Speaker 2: Dave's word. And uh, you know, Dave is the pilot. 389 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,640 Speaker 2: He sets the course and he mans the boat, and 390 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:43,199 Speaker 2: you know, if there's a significant transaction, he runs it 391 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 2: by by John, and John's usually gonna trust him and 392 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,879 Speaker 2: and say, yeah, go for it. I mean case in point, 393 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,440 Speaker 2: Nick castianos he lingers out there a few years ago. 394 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:54,120 Speaker 4: They need one hundred million dollars. 395 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,919 Speaker 2: John says, yeah, let's go for it. So sure, like 396 00:18:56,960 --> 00:19:01,639 Speaker 2: I said, he's the boss, he can he can you know, 397 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 2: flex his muscles and his will if he wants to. 398 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,479 Speaker 2: But he's got a guy that he totally trusts at 399 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,919 Speaker 2: the reins and he's going to let him set the 400 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 2: course and he'll he'll you know, check it off when 401 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 2: it needs to be checked off. 402 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,160 Speaker 5: Yep. Totally agree with you, guys, Yep. 403 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 1: John Robert goss on X Devin Williams is reportedly available. 404 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 1: What would it take to land him? How would you 405 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 1: address the bullpen depth with? 406 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 5: Again? Righties? 407 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 1: What would take to get a guy like Devin Williams? 408 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 1: He's in the final year of his deal, he's gonna 409 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: be making The Brewers declined their option on him, so 410 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:34,679 Speaker 1: I think they think he's going to make less than 411 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:38,400 Speaker 1: ten million or around ten million or less. What would 412 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,359 Speaker 1: it take to get a guy like that? Now I 413 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 1: went back and looked, and now times have changed, I guess. 414 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:46,440 Speaker 1: But when the Phillies got Brad Lidge, they and Eric Brunlett, 415 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,440 Speaker 1: they traded Michael Bourne top position, Blayer prospect, Jeff Geary 416 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 1: big league believer, Mica Stanzo minor league prospect. When they 417 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 1: got Billy Wagner, it was Brandon Duckworth, big league pitcher, 418 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: and two prospects, Taylor Buckoltz and Ezekielastasio. So you know, 419 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,640 Speaker 1: figure like what one big leaguer in a couple of prospects, 420 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 1: what it would take to get somebody like Devin Williams. 421 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:07,399 Speaker 3: I think it would be an Alec Bohm for Devin Williams, 422 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:08,400 Speaker 3: straight up type deal. 423 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 5: That's what I think it would be. Wow. 424 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,680 Speaker 3: And and I don't I don't know that that's something 425 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 3: that they would happen, but I think that's uh that 426 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:19,199 Speaker 3: that that to me. You know, I think Boehmer Boemer 427 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:21,400 Speaker 3: they have two more years of control of and then 428 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:22,640 Speaker 3: Devin Williams just won. 429 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:23,679 Speaker 5: Is that correct, right? 430 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:27,119 Speaker 3: Yes, So so the Phillies may have to get something 431 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 3: back for that, I believe it or not, because of 432 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 3: the control and because of that fact that Alec Bowman. 433 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 3: Everybody souring an Alec Bohm, but he's one of he 434 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 3: was an All Star last year. He's one of the 435 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:40,439 Speaker 3: best basemen in the game. And so I mean, if 436 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:42,360 Speaker 3: you're gonna do if you're gonna do something like that, 437 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,400 Speaker 3: that's that's sort of the return that you would want 438 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 3: to get, at least for for Alec Bohom, if you're 439 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 3: gonna move him. I know that a lot of people 440 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 3: have talked about that, and and I think that the 441 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 3: Devin Williams thing, there's some people sort of soured on him. 442 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:58,440 Speaker 3: You know, we we got Brad Lidge and you talked 443 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:00,680 Speaker 3: about it. We got Brad Lidge as he came off 444 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:04,160 Speaker 3: that that breaking ball that he hung to the bootholes, well, 445 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,959 Speaker 3: this is a change up that he hung to uh 446 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 3: to Peter A Lonzo and he ended up you know, uh, 447 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 3: getting getting whacked around a little bit. But but the 448 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 3: reality of it is my understanding is he was sort 449 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 3: of tip tipping his pitches, and so I mean, this 450 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 3: is one of the nastiest, you know, relievers in the game. 451 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:24,160 Speaker 3: That'd be a really interesting deal if they do make 452 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 3: that deal. Something to consider. 453 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:28,440 Speaker 4: Keep hearing. 454 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,400 Speaker 2: Like, you know, people have soured on Bohm. You got 455 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 2: a trade bomb. They better get a good package for 456 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,480 Speaker 2: Alec Bohm because he's a good player, really good better 457 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:40,639 Speaker 2: he's young. I actually like his competitiveness that he you know, 458 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 2: sometimes he just needs to you know, uh rein it 459 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 2: in a little bit and and modify it a little bit, 460 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 2: channel it a little bit. But I'm a big Alec 461 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 2: Bohm fan. I really think the best is yet to come. 462 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:55,399 Speaker 2: And you know, we always write those sometimes we always 463 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:58,160 Speaker 2: write those stories, Todd. Sometimes the best stories, the best 464 00:21:58,280 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 2: trades are the ones you don't make. 465 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:00,920 Speaker 4: I feel like. 466 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,240 Speaker 2: Everybody's going to be there's a chance everybody could be 467 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:06,200 Speaker 2: riting next September. Sometimes the best trades are the ones 468 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 2: you don't make. Because Alec Baum's I'm gonna having a 469 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 2: really good season and he grew from this. So I'm 470 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:13,639 Speaker 2: not saying, you know, don't trade him, because sometimes you 471 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 2: got to trade value for value, a good player for 472 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 2: a good player, A good package for a good package, 473 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:20,160 Speaker 2: but I like Alec Baulm, you better get something good 474 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 2: in return. You know, he got pissed off at the 475 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:25,920 Speaker 2: end of the season. He smashed his helmet. He he uh. 476 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 4: Was you know, a little a little inmateur realized. 477 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:30,919 Speaker 2: Okay, I look at it as a growth moment. But 478 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 2: if you're going to trade him, you better get something 479 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 2: good for him. 480 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,200 Speaker 1: Alex Hunt, Alex Hunt forty four and x so stay 481 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:37,920 Speaker 1: in the same lane here. How do the Phillies get 482 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 1: Stephen kwan Man? 483 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:40,399 Speaker 5: He would be kind. 484 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:43,160 Speaker 1: Of what the Yeah, he's got three years of team 485 00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 1: control left. I don't see I don't see it happening 486 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:49,640 Speaker 1: unless they just they'd have to pay something pretty big 487 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: for him. 488 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,639 Speaker 3: No, now you're talking about the Crawfords and the and 489 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 3: the Aiden Millers of the world then and the Painters 490 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 3: of the world. 491 00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 5: Because this is one of the best hitters in the game. 492 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 4: But he's a pillar of a playoff team. Why would 493 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 4: they get rid of him. 494 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 3: There's no right, no record at all unless they unless 495 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 3: they feel like they have other people to replace him, 496 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:10,720 Speaker 3: and he's almost irreplaceable the way with the type of 497 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 3: game he has, great defender, runs the base, as well, 498 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,880 Speaker 3: gets on base, great hitter, hits. I know he doesn't 499 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 3: hit the bottle of the ballpark, but who cares? 500 00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:22,880 Speaker 1: Right Owen's uh Swozzo on X Would you target Justin 501 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 1: Verlander or Walker Buehler on a one year deal to 502 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:27,399 Speaker 1: pitch in that fifth spot till Painter is ready? I 503 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 1: guess you could throw Max Scherzer in there too, on 504 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 1: a one year deal. I remember Pac Gillick, and I 505 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 1: know I've said this before, Pac Yellock, always you said 506 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:36,440 Speaker 1: there's no such thing as a bad one year deal. 507 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:39,440 Speaker 1: What do you think about one of those guys? 508 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:43,200 Speaker 2: I would target them all, depending on what the number is. Sure, 509 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:45,919 Speaker 2: But do you think Walker Buehler is just a one 510 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:46,440 Speaker 2: year deal? 511 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,320 Speaker 3: No, because I think he set himself up because he 512 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 3: came back sort of helped you. I think the postseason, 513 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 3: the fact that he came back and looked healthy. I 514 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 3: mean I two years ago I thought Walker Buehler is 515 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:00,679 Speaker 3: going to be a lock for the CIA orient that 516 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 3: you know, top three or four and Cy Young and 517 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,160 Speaker 3: he broke. But there's no way he's going to take 518 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 3: it to a one year deal unless it's like that 519 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 3: Pillow deal, and it's you know, you're talking about thirty 520 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:12,479 Speaker 3: five million dollars. 521 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,119 Speaker 2: Can I ask you guys that are kind of a 522 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:16,479 Speaker 2: this is a crazy question, but I think these are 523 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:20,640 Speaker 2: the kind of questions that happen in war rooms when 524 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 2: you know Reuben and his team are there, because you 525 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 2: throw a lot of a lot of stuff out there, right, 526 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 2: some of it's wacky. I look at Surezer, and I 527 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 2: know he's forty years old, he's had the back. It's 528 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 2: really it's a tough call. But when you look at 529 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 2: his stuff and where it's been, it's not the same. 530 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:54,040 Speaker 2: But the competitiveness, the know how would you entertain the idea? 531 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 2: And I don't know he could do it because I 532 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,479 Speaker 2: don't know if he could pitch three days a week, 533 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,640 Speaker 2: if he could get ready and fifteen minutes. But would 534 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 2: you entertain the idea of a back end come out 535 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 2: and back end bullpen guy and just blow hard stuff 536 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:10,040 Speaker 2: and see what happens? 537 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:12,479 Speaker 5: I mean, I would entertain anything. 538 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:14,679 Speaker 3: I mean that's obviously being very. 539 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,160 Speaker 5: Open minded like a club. 540 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,959 Speaker 3: But look, but look what we did with Pedro, uh, 541 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,639 Speaker 3: with Pedro Martinez. I mean we ended up getting Pedro 542 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 3: literally off out of the Dominican, you know, throwing BP 543 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 3: and I think it's just it's important to be open 544 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,000 Speaker 3: minded that way. And obviously he's you know, Dave Nebrowski 545 00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 3: has a relationship with Suser, so who knows. 546 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 4: I don't know if he do it, but. 547 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,680 Speaker 3: Berlander, Suzer, He's got a relationship with all those guys, 548 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:45,200 Speaker 3: so in a variety of ways. So it's it's interesting, 549 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 3: great thought. I mean, yeah, I think you've got to 550 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 3: be open minded in a lot of ways. I just 551 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,680 Speaker 3: don't know if he's physically capable of doing something like that, 552 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,320 Speaker 3: but I mean, and knowing that he could probably maybe 553 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:55,440 Speaker 3: maybe with. 554 00:25:55,480 --> 00:26:00,040 Speaker 2: Vitation, but I just I look at that competitiveness, and 555 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 2: I wonder if there's a second act there, brief maybe 556 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:06,280 Speaker 2: for just a year, all add John Smolts, But yeah, 557 00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 2: I wonder. 558 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:12,160 Speaker 1: I was gonna say, have Dave Dombrowski fly max Ers 559 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:13,960 Speaker 1: are in the town, get him on the golf course, 560 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,640 Speaker 1: get him on Marion with John Smoltz and just having 561 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:20,680 Speaker 1: chit chat for eighteen holes on being a closer Hall 562 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: of Fame starter and a Hall of Fame closer about 563 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 1: being about a boom it's done. 564 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:26,920 Speaker 3: Well, Sure is gonna be a Hall of Famer's no 565 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 3: question you know that and if he really wants to 566 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:31,959 Speaker 3: win another ring and he feels like this is a challenge, 567 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 3: Like sure, sir. He reminds me of a guy that 568 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 3: likes challenges, and maybe this is a new challenge for him. 569 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 5: It's a great idea, Jim. 570 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 3: I think it's it's one of those things that, uh, 571 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 3: I mean, you got to be creative, and that's a 572 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:45,440 Speaker 3: that's a piece of creativity that's sort. 573 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 5: Of like out of the mind of Pat Gillick. 574 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:48,120 Speaker 3: And I think that's a great thought. 575 00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:50,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll be that would be a lot of fun. 576 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:54,200 Speaker 1: I think one last one Phillies baseballfan dot Com, which 577 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:57,879 Speaker 1: is Steve Potter, our friend Steve Potter, who covers the 578 00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:00,920 Speaker 1: minor leagues, now writes about the minor leagues. He wants 579 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 1: to know he thinks the Phillies are going to protect 580 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:03,920 Speaker 1: in the Rule five draft. I mean, I don't you 581 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 1: guys don't have that list in front of you. But 582 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:08,639 Speaker 1: those guys like mick abel gin Cabrera, who's their minor 583 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 1: league pitcher of the Year, Griff McGarry, Christian McGowan, Moysy's 584 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 1: Chasse Eberson Castillano, they're Paul Owns Award winner Tristan Garnett Lefty. 585 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 1: For me, it would be Able Chasse for sure, and 586 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 1: then maybe maybe another guy in that mix. 587 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:26,880 Speaker 4: Maybe that Castano kid. Uh yeah, Ruben, he pitched for Zulia. 588 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 4: He's a Zulia guy. 589 00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's what I understand. 590 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 3: I have to get some do a get a scouting 591 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 3: report for my brother who is a GM down there, 592 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:36,680 Speaker 3: my brother Luis. 593 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 5: He's in my half brother, Luis, he's. 594 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:42,640 Speaker 3: You know, they got some players and they certainly don't 595 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:44,159 Speaker 3: want to lose them, so they're going to try to 596 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,399 Speaker 3: figure out ways to uh and I'm not sure what 597 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:48,199 Speaker 3: their forty man roster looks like right now. 598 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:51,120 Speaker 1: They're at thirty seven right now. 599 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:53,160 Speaker 3: So they may they may want to try to open 600 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:56,639 Speaker 3: up some space with a player or two. I know 601 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:58,919 Speaker 3: they're you're probably doing a little razzle dazzle and they 602 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:02,040 Speaker 3: got to protect him here what pretty shortly, right. 603 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, You've got to be detective of your pitching, your 604 00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 2: starting pitching, and able just say, I mean, yeah, just 605 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 2: say what you saw of him and the castianos Kidd's daughter. 606 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 2: I think the guy that I mean, Christian McGowan, you 607 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:19,880 Speaker 2: got to really think about it. I think he's kind 608 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 2: of a bubble guy, whether or not he's a starter 609 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:23,280 Speaker 2: or reliever. 610 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 4: I think people are kind of mixed on that. 611 00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:28,400 Speaker 2: But you know, I know we've probably been talking about 612 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:32,000 Speaker 2: this name for so long that frankly, people might be 613 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,160 Speaker 2: getting tired of it and it's time to produce or 614 00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 2: go away. But the Griff McGarry's arm so tantalizing, Yeah, 615 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 2: he'd I think you have to almost look at it 616 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 2: like like, Okay, if I were an opposing GM, would 617 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 2: I take a shot at Griff McGary.

You can hide 625 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 3: guys really easily in the major leagues, and you can 626 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 3: bring him in at some point and there's so much 627 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 3: swing and miss in this day and age that you 628 00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 3: just let him spin his breaking ball and just breaking 629 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 3: ball after breaking ball after breaking ball, you never know 630 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 3: what you got. Somebody will swing and miss edit enough 631 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 3: that that he can start gaining some confidence and have success. 632 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 1: Who knows he also he also might do you think 633 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 1: they could lose him? Yeah, I think I think a 634 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 1: team would take him. Yeah, I know that definitely. I 635 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 1: feel like you guys in the past would take big 636 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 1: arm guys and just bring him in the cam see 637 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 1: what they can do. 638 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 5: He might also. 639 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 1: Benefit and not have an ABS system in the big leagues. 640 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 1: You know, I think he misses a lot of pitches 641 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 1: on the corners just because if it's you know, it's 642 00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:45,880 Speaker 1: not the you know, automatic strike and whatnot. So yeah, interesting, interesting. 643 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 1: Two final things I want to mention this.
