1 00:00:02,200 --> 00:00:04,840 Speaker 1: It's that time of year. Yeah, you should be dancing, traps, 2 00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:06,720 Speaker 1: you should be dancing. And Cam Mayban is going to 3 00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:11,240 Speaker 1: join us soon. It's trade deadline season. We had one 4 00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:14,319 Speaker 1: yesterday that we're going to break down later in the show, 5 00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:18,239 Speaker 1: but you gotta love five minutes before showtime under the one. 6 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:20,960 Speaker 1: So I'm very excited, as I can see you are too. 7 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 1: Over the next week, we're gonna be all over coverage 8 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:26,480 Speaker 1: of trades as they happen. Breaking news will jump in 9 00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:30,240 Speaker 1: when we can, hopefully krats. Not all the work is 10 00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:33,199 Speaker 1: done Saturday night at two am, like we see in 11 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,840 Speaker 1: the off season with half the signings. 12 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,159 Speaker 2: No, that's not gonna happen. They listen like you. We 13 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:43,760 Speaker 2: heard the whole report on O'Neil, O'Neal Cruz, like big 14 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:48,240 Speaker 2: time prospects being asked. They're waiting till the last possible second. 15 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 2: So when we go mega on the trade deadline day, 16 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 2: then that's when it's all going to happen. They're setting 17 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 2: it up for us. The Mets pick up another Soto 18 00:00:58,080 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 2: and another one. 19 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 1: That's right, that's right, they have two Sodas. That's a 20 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:03,920 Speaker 1: good call, all right, So let's charge. Let's get to 21 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 1: the breaking news here right off the jump. 22 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 2: Charge them out. 23 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 1: Two sodas are better than one. That is very true. 24 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 1: Gregory Soto, who used to be in the Division with 25 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 1: the Phillies, moved over to the Orioles last year. The 26 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 1: Orioles loved the Phillies relievers last year, if you remember, 27 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,680 Speaker 1: they picked up Sodo and Sir Anthony do Mingez, and 28 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,679 Speaker 1: now Soto is back in the National League East. The 29 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,639 Speaker 1: Mets need bullpen help. They've got a left handed reliever 30 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 1: to add to the Brooks Raley mix. Raley, just recently 31 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 1: back for the Metropolitans, gives them too money. Left handed 32 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:41,399 Speaker 1: arms helps them really against guys like Kyle Schwarber in 33 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 1: the Division too. Keep that in mind. You want to 34 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 1: have multiple options from the left side for high leverage games, 35 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: high leverage situations. Soto and Brooks Raley makes this much 36 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 1: more attractive for the Mets. And I feel like this 37 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 1: team in general is not getting enough attention and love 38 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 1: for how much damage they might do at the trade deadline. 39 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 1: Crats they think they can win a World Series this year. 40 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 1: They didn't spend seven to sixty five mili on Jan 41 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:06,639 Speaker 1: Soto for nothing. 42 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 2: What do you think I mean, I think David Stearns 43 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:15,919 Speaker 2: is cementing his legacy as a GM, but now he 44 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 2: has to cement it in New York. What he does 45 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 2: in Queens, I think is going to be completely different. 46 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,080 Speaker 2: So I think this is just the tip of the 47 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 2: iceberg for a guy who needs, for a guy who 48 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 2: jumps the market getting a reliever that everybody we talk 49 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 2: about today, tomorrow, in the next five days is gonna 50 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 2: all be about, Oh, they need relief pitching and they 51 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,640 Speaker 2: need a back. To me, I think they may go 52 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 2: back down to Baltimore and say, no one else is 53 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 2: gonna get really one of the best center fielders that's 54 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 2: available in Cedric Mullins. So you've already started that train 55 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 2: with the Orioles. So you've already had those communications direct 56 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:58,080 Speaker 2: line down to Baltimore and see they might get that 57 00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 2: center field or Cedric Mullins too. 58 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 1: We can talk about the return a little bit as well. 59 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 1: The Mets farm system is in much better shape than 60 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 1: it was several years ago. This team always spends a lot, 61 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: but the difference was they didn't have much going in 62 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: the farm. They do these days. You've seen some of 63 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 1: the young position players come up for them and be 64 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 1: helpful contributors. But from a pitching front, Kratz is where 65 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 1: this team has really changed. This team has changed from 66 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: the top with the MLB squad all the way down 67 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 1: to the minor league level. It has really made a 68 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: difference with the way that this team is pitching, developing pitching. 69 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: They've got the pitching machine, the pitching lab as many 70 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: call it, down in Florida where they train right and 71 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 1: you're seeing that now in the form of some of 72 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: these prospects returns. So when you look at these guys, 73 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: we're not going to act like we know much about them. 74 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: But right handed pitcher Cameron Foster and right handed pitcher 75 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 1: Wellington Arassina, who on many lists is a top twenty 76 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: Mets prospect both move for a guy in Soto who 77 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 1: I think. It's a good tweet here from Joel Sherman. 78 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: He said is is most likely to be a reliever 79 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: that hits one, walks to then strikes out three in 80 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 1: an inning, big velocity, hard to hit when he is locating. 81 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 2: Do you like Mountain You're saying, get your hard medicine, 82 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 2: Mountain Queens. So there's a I mean, it's nasty, it's 83 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:29,559 Speaker 2: it's a funky arm angle. He's tall and he throws 84 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 2: a hundred, Like, this is the kind of guy that 85 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,360 Speaker 2: you're like, man, if he could put it together, well, 86 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 2: he does put it together in spurts, So this will 87 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 2: be kind of you know, Carlos Mendoza will need to 88 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 2: really have his pulse on how he's throwing, and Bill 89 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:45,479 Speaker 2: get him out of there when that's sinkers, when that 90 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 2: singer's going. It's just it's a middle, middle pitch that 91 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 2: guys are not able to square up. And to me, 92 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 2: I thought if the Orioles were going to do a 93 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 2: deal like this, or when the Ools were going to 94 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 2: do a deal like this, they would have gone after 95 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 2: some guys that were closer two big league ready, like 96 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 2: like a one for one kind of thing, like something 97 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 2: that would fill a hole for next year because people, 98 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 2: I mean, yes, the Orioles have been brutal, but they 99 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,280 Speaker 2: want to win next year. If they don't want to win, 100 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 2: then somebody's gonna get gun or Henderson, which ain't happening. 101 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 2: But you go out there and you're like, hey, like 102 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 2: I thought it would be more of a baseball trade 103 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 2: when I was thinking of Orioles. It still could happen. 104 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: Well, the Oriols are gonna trade anybody that's in this 105 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 1: ruland they're gonna trade Sir Anthony Dimingez, They're gonna trade 106 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 1: zach Eflyn. They should trade Chicano. I know they're a 107 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: little bit worried about the relationship internationally with bringing in 108 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,040 Speaker 1: a player who finally commits to the Orioles over many 109 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 1: other spots and then you deal them away. But it's 110 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 1: a one year contract, so I think they should deal 111 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,679 Speaker 1: him away. Who else that you mentioned, Mullins, he should 112 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: get Delta away. So yeah, this is just the beginning 113 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 1: for the Orioles. Earn for sure, and his market's already 114 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: been set now with Josh Naylor getting to mid level 115 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 1: pitching prospects. We'll get to that later, but that's going 116 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,919 Speaker 1: to be a somewhat similar return for a Hearn. A 117 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: Hern's a better bat, but ideally you're dhing him a bit. 118 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 1: He can do some first base. Maybe it's a fit 119 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: for a team like the Red Sox. I don't want 120 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 1: to get too deep into that right now. I want 121 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 1: to stay on task. But that is another guy that 122 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: will foreshore be moved for a couple B prospects. 123 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 2: Perhaps, Yeah, Bruers anyway. Can we can guess anywhere anybody, 124 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 2: but they have to me. I think the Orioles have 125 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 2: the most. We'll talk about the Diamondbacks a little later. 126 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 2: They have a lot. I think the Diamacks may have 127 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 2: a little bit higher quality too. To give out there. 128 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:46,159 Speaker 1: Okay, and what are we thinking about the Mets. I 129 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: think they'll go get at least one more bullpen piece. 130 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,720 Speaker 1: I don't think this is the last thing they'll do 131 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: just for the bullpen alone. They have prospect capital there 132 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 1: and win now mode Steve Cohen's fifth season owning the team, 133 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 1: he said, three to five year plan. I want one 134 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 1: of these titles. 135 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:06,479 Speaker 2: What what'd you say the Mets have that's been working 136 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 2: really well? Pitching factory. I don't know that they'll go 137 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 2: get another guy. You have a closer. So if you're 138 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 2: going high end, I'd be surprised. I'd be surprised. If 139 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 2: they go high end, well, they get someone else maybe, 140 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 2: but to me, they do better. David Stearns has done 141 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 2: better working in the fringes famously. The Brewers have the 142 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 2: DFA bullpen that is life out every year. So to me, 143 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 2: I think they maybe a'll find value there and maybe 144 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 2: try to be able to find a bigger bet. Maybe 145 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 2: it'll pry a center field or away from somebody because 146 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 2: that's a big need. Also, don't forget third base is 147 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 2: a need to I get it, Vientos was a postseason hero, 148 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 2: but if you can upgrade there, that's huge, huge for 149 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 2: the Mets. 150 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: I think Sega's gonna have a nice rest of the 151 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: regular season into the playoffs as long as he stays 152 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 1: on the field. I really like Manaia. I like the staff. 153 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: The starting staff I think can start a playoff series 154 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 1: and thrive. For me, I am still going after a 155 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 1: high leverage, big, big bullpen arm and I would be 156 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 1: willing to give up a top level prospect to try 157 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: and get someone that's under control for multiple years, or 158 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 1: if they want to go more of the short term 159 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 1: route like Ryan Helsley. There are a lot of good 160 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 1: relievers that are out there Krafts that some will definitely 161 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 1: be dealt because they're free agents after this year, and 162 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 1: some will have to command something big, like a Jan Durant, 163 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 1: Griffin Jacks, Emmanuel class A. I don't think Kid Smith's 164 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 1: going to be moved, but I'm sure the Guardians will 165 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 1: have conversations about a guy like him as well. Right, 166 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,679 Speaker 1: you've got that tier where it's multiple years of control 167 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 1: and it's guys that can close out a World Series 168 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 1: for you, or be an eighth inning guy to an 169 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 1: Edwin Diez in the ninth and then you've got more 170 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 1: of your rental type. Don't you think of Ryan Helsley 171 00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 1: in the eighth inning would fit quite nicely for the Mets. 172 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 1: They've got their two shutdown left handed relievers. Now they've 173 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 1: got a couple other guys they like in the bullpen, 174 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 1: and then you pair someone like Hellsley with Edwin Diez. 175 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 1: Now we're talking, and that's a guy that is going 176 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:13,680 Speaker 1: to be a free agent after this year. You don't 177 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 1: think they'll do something else like that or go for 178 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 1: a player like that. You could look at the Pirates 179 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 1: with Bednar and with Dennis Santana. I don't give a 180 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 1: crap what your prior role was. If you're joining the Mets, 181 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: you're going to be in the eighth inning. I know you. 182 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 1: Sometimes we debated this a lot. Every guy's different. There 183 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:32,719 Speaker 1: might be a few of them that say, hey, I'm 184 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: nineth inning, and then the Mets are not the right 185 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,080 Speaker 1: team for you, But I feel like most of them 186 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 1: understand the deal. Do you think Hellesley would have a 187 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 1: problem because he's about to hit free agency and he 188 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: still wants to be a closer the next couple months. 189 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 1: I don't think it makes a difference anymore in terms 190 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 1: of what you get paid. If he shuts down the 191 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 1: eighth and he's a g in the playoffs for the Mets, 192 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 1: he'll probably get more money. 193 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,559 Speaker 2: No, but I don't think. I don't think the player 194 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 2: cares at all. That's not what I'm getting at. I 195 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 2: think the teams that are going to be bidding, the 196 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:03,560 Speaker 2: teams that need a true closer, are gonna be the 197 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 2: ones at the front of bidding up for Ryan Helsley. 198 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 2: If the Mets call and they have a similar package 199 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 2: for the Cardinals, which the Mets Cardinals Nolan Ernado, maybe 200 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:16,959 Speaker 2: he'll go to New York. Who knows they need a 201 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 2: third basement. Anyway, If that package is out there for Hellsley, 202 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,439 Speaker 2: teams that need closers, like the Phillies need a closer, 203 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 2: the Cardinals can go to them and be like, all right, 204 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 2: well this is the package, Like we need a little 205 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 2: more from you. I think that's why I don't think 206 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 2: they would get a closer type because other teams will 207 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 2: bid that up. I don't think the Mets are going 208 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 2: to overbid for that type. 209 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 1: Of pitcher, Okay, but then my idea of someone like 210 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:48,959 Speaker 1: Dennis Santana would really fit them all there right, really 211 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 1: sneaky good season, he's shut down some games. He can 212 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,680 Speaker 1: easily slot in for your high leverage seventh d eighth 213 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 1: inning type, swing and miss. And the thing with the 214 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:01,320 Speaker 1: bullpen is that you can try to build it as 215 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,359 Speaker 1: best as possible in the offseason, but it's near impossible 216 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:07,679 Speaker 1: because it's so volatile. The Doctors are a good example 217 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 1: of that. They spent a lot of money on their bullpen, 218 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:11,720 Speaker 1: and some of the guys were looking at and going, 219 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 1: how is no one going after this player? Tanner Scott 220 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 1: was different. He cost a ton of money now he's heard. 221 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: Kirby Yates was more of the example where we're like, 222 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 1: how is no one going after him? I think some 223 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: gms like to work on their bullpen at the trade deadline. 224 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 1: That's the one spot I feel like they I don't 225 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 1: want to say leave open, but understand that they might 226 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 1: move prospects for because you want to catch the right 227 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 1: arm at the right time. 228 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 2: Do you agree, yeah, healthy, I mean you start locking in, 229 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 2: you start locking in a Tanner Scott for a long time, 230 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,679 Speaker 2: and you're like, you know you even if even like 231 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 2: a Kirby Yates. Now you get like some type of 232 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,439 Speaker 2: injury early in the season. You can see teams can 233 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 2: see where guys are at their usage by the trade deadline, 234 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 2: and you really it's the true rental. As much as 235 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,199 Speaker 2: relievers don't want to hear this, they are true rentals, 236 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 2: and they're paid like rentals, and they're run, they're driven 237 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,959 Speaker 2: like a rental. Like that's the biggest thing. And so teams, 238 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:06,199 Speaker 2: I think you're right. I think you're you're hit it 239 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 2: right on the head that they're finding that value at 240 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:11,559 Speaker 2: the trade deadline and not necessarily in the offseason, which 241 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 2: I don't agree, but that's that's the route they're going. 242 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 1: So in summary, Ool's just getting going with their sale 243 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 1: of guys that are going to be free agents after 244 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 1: this year or maybe after next year, right selling away 245 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 1: short term pieces. And for the Mets, this was a 246 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 1: very primary need. They wanted to have two shutdown lefties 247 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 1: in their bullpen. Now they've accomplished that check and they 248 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 1: can work on other things for the next week. FT 249 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:41,720 Speaker 1: breaking news. Ryan McMahon is a New York Yankee. His 250 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 1: days of suffering in Colorado are over. He goes from 251 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 1: one of the worst teams of all time to a 252 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 1: Yankees team that can desperately use filling a hole at 253 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,839 Speaker 1: third base and improving their defense. Kratz, this is one 254 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 1: of the elite defenders in our sport at third base 255 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 1: for several seasons. Now. Yankee swing back two prospects to 256 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: pitching prospects, which we'll get into coming up in a moment. 257 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 1: Griffin Herring and Josh Gross one of them in the 258 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 1: top ten range on most publications, top twenty for the others. 259 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 1: And then you can see Mark Finestan here pointing out 260 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 1: that Ryan McMahon has been much better at the plate 261 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 1: over the last six weeks. Really, if you break down 262 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 1: his season, he was atrocious in April and March obviously 263 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 1: when the season started, and since then he's been pretty 264 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 1: solid at the dish. He's got big home road splits, 265 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 1: but it's not like we haven't seen players go from 266 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 1: Colorado and then thrive elsewhere. Keep it in mind, told 267 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: that Denver takes on your body and the lack of 268 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:43,079 Speaker 1: information that the Colorado Rockies organization provides because their front 269 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 1: office and their prep staff is like ten percent of 270 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 1: what some of the other teams have to offer. He's 271 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 1: going to get to Yankee Stadium and be like, is 272 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 1: this Willie Wanker's chocolate factory? Because I was just eaten, 273 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:58,120 Speaker 1: you know, skittles off the pavement before. This is freaking crazy. 274 00:13:58,160 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 1: So what do you think about this movie? Do you 275 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 1: think this is going to help the Yankees a lot? 276 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:05,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, especially since they only gave up two Pithers whatever 277 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,440 Speaker 2: Pithers are that was what the tweet said, not pitchers. 278 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 2: But but yes, it's gonna help them a ton. It 279 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 2: adds these defense and you say, okay, well you just 280 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 2: picked up a guy who's struggling at thirty, you know, 281 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 2: at the plate. This will improve their defense, which is huge, 282 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 2: which has been the talk of the Yankees' last postseason 283 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 2: to now. They had four airs in one game. He's 284 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 2: not gonna be able to clean up all the defense, 285 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 2: but it plugs a big spot that they needed. And 286 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 2: to me, the value and the things he's going to 287 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 2: learn with the Yankees, if he's open to learning, it 288 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 2: will be a very significant jump in his offense because 289 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 2: the lack of knowledge, the lack of information that they 290 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 2: are given in Colorado. Look at dj L Mayhew, good player. Absolutely. 291 00:14:56,160 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 2: Djail Mayhew's words exactly were, we didn't even have any 292 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 2: of this stuff. We didn't even have Like I was 293 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 2: expecting him to say, ah, we had half whatever. They 294 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 2: were so far beyond or behind the times and to 295 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 2: be able to get that information to you as a hitter. 296 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 2: Oh and also, he's not gonna be one of two 297 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 2: guys in the lineup. The Yankees offense is still good. 298 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 2: I get it, they're sputtering a little bit, but the 299 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 2: Yankees offense is still good. Ryan McMahon, all of a sudden, 300 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 2: is not the guy that you're thinking about. Okay, how 301 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 2: do we get this guy out? No, it's Judge, it's 302 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 2: g Jazz has been swinging the bat well. Paul Goldschmid's 303 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 2: been swinging the bat well. Now, all of a sudden, 304 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 2: you add in rhyming Man. Every time you add in 305 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 2: a hitter that's struggling and he's been better recently to 306 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 2: a good lineup. Now that good lineup or that struggling 307 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 2: hitter just automatically gets better. So to me, you have 308 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 2: the defense that's solidified. Now you're adding to the offense. 309 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 2: Because they weren't getting much offensive production from third base. 310 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 1: The Yankees clearly thought either they didn't have the prospect 311 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 1: juice with their offer for Gino Suarez, if they even 312 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 1: made one, or maybe they just liked Ryan McMahon better 313 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 1: for the team control. He is definitely a better defender 314 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 1: than Geno Suarez. Gino has got him beat by far 315 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 1: in the bat department. Nobody is disputing that. But Jim Bowden, 316 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: our resident GM, was on the money on this one. Kratz. 317 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 1: He was shooting down thoughts about Gino Suarez landing with 318 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 1: the Yankees based on his conversations, which probably came from 319 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 1: one of the top people in command with the Yanks. 320 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 1: It could have even come from Brian Cashman, if I 321 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 1: had to guess. JB was on this show the last 322 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 1: couple weeks being like, they don't love Geno's d they 323 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 1: are thinking about some other guys, and they were thinking 324 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 1: about McMahon. They had been trying to pry him. I 325 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 1: think for the last couple of years the Rockies should 326 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 1: have traded McMahon last year as one of his better 327 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 1: offensive seasons. But the Rockies are going to Rocky and 328 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 1: they run like a mom and pop organization. They were like, 329 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 1: we like him, we like his family, we want to 330 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 1: hang out with him more. That's swell. So they waited 331 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 1: an extra here. They could have gotten more last year. 332 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 1: But let's not worry about the Rocks right now. They're 333 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 1: a billion years away from contending. For the Yankees, this 334 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 1: is four and a half million dollars left this season. 335 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 1: He's under contract the next couple of years for sixteen 336 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 1: million dollars. Nothing for their books. They get the control, 337 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 1: but they essentially picked someone up that's gonna cost them 338 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 1: some money to solidify a position that's been in albatross. 339 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 1: They should have done this. In terms of addressing the 340 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 1: position last offseason, we were like, are they gonna work 341 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: on third base? Are they gonna rely on DJ coming back? 342 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,160 Speaker 1: You disagree? What was the plan for third base heading 343 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,120 Speaker 1: into the season for the Yanks because at this point 344 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 1: the last couple months, they're mixing and matching, especially when 345 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 1: Jazz moved back over to second. Jazz should always be 346 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:46,639 Speaker 1: at second, not third. Third was a stop gap. It's like, 347 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 1: if you want him for a game or two, that's fine, 348 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 1: but I felt like it was a true band aid 349 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: opportunity from a team that shouldn't be doing that. And 350 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,680 Speaker 1: then it became a perfect storm when Anthony Volpi went 351 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 1: through his mess of a defensive struggle, which really has 352 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 1: been going on the entire season. He is rushing throws, 353 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,879 Speaker 1: he's playing way too fast, and the other day in 354 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 1: the Toronto series he goes on one knee to field 355 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 1: a ground ball. Like it, it seems like there's some 356 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 1: confidence lost. There's people trying to now start in a 357 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 1: shout out. He might need a quick reset down in 358 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 1: the minor leagues, whatever you think and whatever the plan is, 359 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 1: because they don't really have a backup plan for Volpiyet 360 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:24,919 Speaker 1: short right now. They needed to get more firmness on 361 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:28,080 Speaker 1: the left side of their infield, more consistency because it 362 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 1: had been messy. 363 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:34,159 Speaker 2: I think there's a school of thought too, if your 364 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 2: shortstop doesn't have to cover all of the left side, 365 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,200 Speaker 2: and it's not saying he's Kelly Leak over there running 366 00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 2: and you know, jumping to field balls to the third baseman, 367 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 2: maybe they can shift him into a better position. Maybe 368 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,120 Speaker 2: they can put him in better spots where they don't 369 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,280 Speaker 2: feel like they have to cover the lack of range 370 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 2: for the third basement that they had before. But this 371 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,879 Speaker 2: isn't about Volpi. This is about the upgrade that they 372 00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 2: had a third base and why they didn't why they 373 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:04,679 Speaker 2: didn't basically take care of this in the offseason. I 374 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,399 Speaker 2: would agree with the way that Brian Cashman and the 375 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,359 Speaker 2: Yankees took care of this. Look, you don't one hundred 376 00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 2: percent know that Jazz isn't going to be good at 377 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:17,399 Speaker 2: third is are you hoping? Absolutely? You're hoping you also 378 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:20,440 Speaker 2: have some cash in DJ the Mayhew. To me, if 379 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 2: DJ the Mayhew come's back, then we're only talking to 380 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 2: the beginning of the season, and regain some of the 381 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,160 Speaker 2: form as a two to eighty hitter, he can cover 382 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 2: second base admirably. Now, all of a sudden, you have 383 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 2: a lineup that's going to take care of some of 384 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 2: the deficiencies and you don't have to spend extra money. 385 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 2: You don't want to just dump DJ the Mayhew right 386 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:43,800 Speaker 2: at the beginning of season. Are we talking about things 387 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:48,639 Speaker 2: that inevitably happened? Yes, But beginning of season I did 388 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,920 Speaker 2: like the route that they were going because they had 389 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:55,680 Speaker 2: the personnel in place. It didn't work out. You don't 390 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 2: always make all the right choices. 391 00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:59,919 Speaker 1: Do you think they should have gone after Genosparez and 392 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 1: said screw it, let's get a rental because he's a 393 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:06,120 Speaker 1: better bat. No, you think this was the guy that's. 394 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 2: Like putting a band aid on a leaking damn. Like, yes, 395 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 2: two months, maybe three months? Bang, Like, hey, he's putting this. 396 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 2: He putting us together for the postseason. This is nothing 397 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 2: against Ginus s Warrez. I like for the Yankees, this 398 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:25,480 Speaker 2: move much better because of where Ryan McMahon is defensively, 399 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 2: and yes, Yankee fans, he will make an error when 400 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 2: he plays for the Yankees. Sorry, that is just what's 401 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:37,639 Speaker 2: gonna happen. But he can hit. He will hit. You 402 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 2: watch this guy in BP, You watch this guy in games. Honestly, 403 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 2: when he first came up in twenty eighteen, when we 404 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 2: played in the playoffs, I was more afraid of his 405 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,879 Speaker 2: bat and he was kind of a sporadic player at 406 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:54,679 Speaker 2: that point than even Charlie Blackman, even Nolan Ernado, because 407 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 2: we had ability to pitch to those guys based on 408 00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 2: how our bullpen and our rotation was built. Ryan McMahon 409 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,359 Speaker 2: scared me more because of his ability to cover a 410 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 2: lot of pitches down in the zone. 411 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 1: What do you think of the short porch for Ryan McMahon, 412 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 1: like it has been so helpful for Cody Buinger and Jasshchism. No, 413 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 1: nothing there. 414 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:19,159 Speaker 2: I'm telling you, this dude can hit the ball out 415 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 2: of Yellowstone. You start look at you look at some 416 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 2: of his peripherals. How hard he hits the ball, How 417 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,960 Speaker 2: hard he can hit the ball. It is. It's elite, 418 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:32,159 Speaker 2: and he's not like an imposing figure. He's tall, long, 419 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:37,200 Speaker 2: lean type of hitter. And I hate when guys say, ah, 420 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:42,159 Speaker 2: this is super helping, this is super helping left handed hitters. 421 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 2: He's not that kind of guy. To me. If you 422 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:47,160 Speaker 2: get a right handed hitter that can hit the ball 423 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 2: to the opposite field, that's who it really helps. Cody 424 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 2: Bellinger's top spin line drives to right field are not 425 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 2: his best swings. That's yes, it's going out of the 426 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 2: ballpark sometimes, But I don't see it helping lefties as 427 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 2: much as everybody says, because in overall, like the full 428 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 2: scope of your season, if you're looking to get cheap 429 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,640 Speaker 2: home runs to right as a left handed hitter, your 430 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 2: batting average and every all your production is gonna go 431 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,200 Speaker 2: you still got to hit dingers. It's just like it's 432 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:22,640 Speaker 2: just like a lefty taking taking the monster in Boston, 433 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:26,400 Speaker 2: taking advantage of that. You're taking good swings that put 434 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:28,439 Speaker 2: the ball off the wall that could be caught at 435 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 2: the wall and at other places. To me, it's not 436 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:35,680 Speaker 2: that big of an advantage for lefties. And McMahon will 437 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:38,639 Speaker 2: hit the ball, I mean, get ready bleacher creatures, because 438 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:40,200 Speaker 2: that's that's his territory. 439 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 1: Okay, so Kratz really likes this deal for the Yanks. 440 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 1: What's next? I think starting pitching, maybe one guy, and 441 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 1: then relief pitching for sure for this team. But in 442 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 1: my mind, some of the gms, the veteran ones are 443 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:59,200 Speaker 1: getting some of their very specific needs. There must haves 444 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:04,159 Speaker 1: done so that they can work on the icing on 445 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 1: the cake for lack of a better term, right yet, 446 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 1: David Stern saying, Hey, I absolutely need another left handed reliever. 447 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: Boom checklist done. Now I can work on gravy another reliever. 448 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 1: Yankees going, there's no doubt we're getting a third basement 449 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 1: cool got the one we were looking for. Now we 450 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:23,400 Speaker 1: can work on helping us in the pitching category. Am 451 00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 1: I missing anything? Do they need to do anything? Else 452 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 1: position player wise, or do you feel like they're set there. 453 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:31,919 Speaker 2: I feel like they're set there. People are gonna say, well, 454 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:35,120 Speaker 2: the helly are there? They're struggling, they strike out too much, 455 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 2: their team, their team identification, the way that they look 456 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:43,240 Speaker 2: at themselves as a hitter. I think it's set. I 457 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 2: don't know that they need. The only position player change 458 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,919 Speaker 2: is if they can land some type of monster for 459 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:53,520 Speaker 2: a Jason Domingez, for a Trent Grisham who doesn't need 460 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:57,160 Speaker 2: gold glove outfielder that can fill in has had a 461 00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 2: admirable year, he's done well. It's kind of fall off 462 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 2: for Trent Grisham. Recently, Jason Dimingez is still trying to 463 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:06,160 Speaker 2: feel his way into the big leagues. I'm not saying 464 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:09,439 Speaker 2: it's gonna happen. I'm saying, if you're the Yankees and 465 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 2: you have a chance to get a picture of, you know, 466 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:18,119 Speaker 2: a Mitch Keller type of starter that's controlled, clearly the 467 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 2: Yankees want that control. They went and got McMahon. Do 468 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,160 Speaker 2: they go and get him? Do they? And the reason 469 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,400 Speaker 2: I said Mitch Keller is because the Yankees look at 470 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:30,720 Speaker 2: other organizations that maybe don't get the most out of 471 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:33,840 Speaker 2: their pitchers and they take that value and they say 472 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 2: we're gonna unlock this, We're gonna use that. Could they 473 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 2: get a Ryan Helsley? Honestly thought the Yankees could have 474 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:43,879 Speaker 2: been a Nolan Aernada Ryan Helsley type of location. Also 475 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:47,639 Speaker 2: obviously Nolan Ernada's out, but I loved his defense at third. 476 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 2: For this team, they don't, I mean nobody, nobody cares 477 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 2: if you're if you're closing in the postseason, or if 478 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:57,719 Speaker 2: you're throwing the seventh or eighth inning in the postseason. 479 00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:00,680 Speaker 2: And I think that is where this team, if there's 480 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 2: an opportunity, can push to that upper echelon and take 481 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 2: away that closer, that eighth inning guy from different teams, 482 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 2: maybe even a Bednar to come in. I see a 483 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 2: Dennis Santana being in that realm too, just to add 484 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 2: more depth to that bullpen quality depth too. 485 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,200 Speaker 1: Last piece of the puzzle here. We're not gonna spend 486 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:24,920 Speaker 1: a lot of time on the Rockies. Like I mentioned, 487 00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 1: they should have traded mc bann last year. This was 488 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:31,720 Speaker 1: an obvious dude to move. It's a seller's market right now. 489 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 1: The return is to pitching prospects for the Rockies. We 490 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 1: will be all over prospect returns. Yeah, and money dump 491 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 1: of course for Colorado. Yes, good, good call, Kratz, But 492 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:45,159 Speaker 1: this team's gonna probably trade away another reliever or too. 493 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,719 Speaker 1: They don't have a ton of other assets to sell. 494 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 1: This was the big one for them, and you got 495 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:52,879 Speaker 1: to get these right. I mean, of the two that 496 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:55,720 Speaker 1: they're bringing in here. You hope, if you're a Rockies fan, 497 00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 1: that one of these guys turns into something special for you. 498 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 1: Griffin Herring perhaps turns into something special for the Rockies, 499 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 1: but it's a bigger problem. They need to reshape the organization. 500 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: They're probably going to go outside the org to try 501 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 1: and find some front office help coming up in the 502 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 1: off season. But this was a big move because they 503 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: don't have many short many assets like this. It's not 504 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:17,640 Speaker 1: even a short term mast because he's got multiple years 505 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 1: of control. But hopefully they did their homework and did 506 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:23,119 Speaker 1: things right. We did bring up yesterday how sometimes the 507 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,640 Speaker 1: Yankees over pumped their prospects and it turns into nice 508 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 1: returns from them. I get Brian Cashman a ton of credit. 509 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:29,920 Speaker 1: He's done this for a long time now. If you 510 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 1: look at many of the Yankees traits over the past 511 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 1: five to seven years. Sometimes the players they bring in 512 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 1: don't work out, but almost every time whoever they trade away, 513 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:42,159 Speaker 1: especially when it's a pitcher, doesn't do much dope. I 514 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: give the Yankes credit for. 515 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 2: That, Yeah, no doubt. But now now we're in the 516 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 2: realm of everybody has kind of the same analytics, the 517 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 2: same like they're they're breaking down the stats. Oh wait, 518 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 2: didn't I start that by saying the Rockies don't have that? 519 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 2: So I'm a little fearful for the rock I'm a 520 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:05,640 Speaker 2: little feel fearful for the Rockies fandom that these two 521 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 2: guys you don't know if they're gonna work out, You 522 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 2: don't know exactly what you're gonna get from them. But 523 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 2: my thing is I hope for Rockies fans that they 524 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 2: can say, these are the type of pitchers we want 525 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:21,880 Speaker 2: to go after. We're gonna put this, We're gonna put 526 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,479 Speaker 2: these guardrails up, and if these guys can check all 527 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 2: these boxes, that's what we're gonna go after. Because if 528 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 2: you go and get which the Yankees do, the Yankees 529 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:33,360 Speaker 2: produce guys with spin rate top of the zone and 530 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 2: breaking balls down the middle with more depth, whether it's 531 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,399 Speaker 2: a slider that gyro slider that goes down. Their pitching 532 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 2: lab wants you to do those things right here. Well, 533 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 2: what happens in Colorado. The ball doesn't have as much 534 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 2: life it has like it's like one point seven inches 535 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:57,399 Speaker 2: less of horizontal break than the next closest ballpark. So 536 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:01,399 Speaker 2: as a Rockies fan, you need to make or hope 537 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:03,639 Speaker 2: that your team is saying this is a type of 538 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,199 Speaker 2: picture we're getting. We're gonna get all this type of picture, 539 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:08,399 Speaker 2: and this is how we're gonna be able to pitch 540 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,880 Speaker 2: and not just say like the Rockies have been saying, well, 541 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 2: we'll take that picture of that picture, this picture, this picture, 542 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 2: and hopefully one of these six pitchers will work out 543 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,800 Speaker 2: and they're all really good guys. Oh they didn't work out, 544 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 2: It's okay, thanks for coming to the stadium. 545 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. And then you got to relook at your system. 546 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:27,359 Speaker 1: You got to look at what you're doing as an 547 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 1: organization and why you're so far behind, and invest a 548 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:31,760 Speaker 1: little bit in that. You're saving a lot of money 549 00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 1: on Royan McMahon. Now hire some more people to help 550 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:37,440 Speaker 1: with development. I mean, why is every player leaving Colorado 551 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 1: being like and now I'm in the twenty first Century, 552 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:41,720 Speaker 1: so we can spend all day on that. We've done 553 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 1: a lot on that. There's a good video of us 554 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 1: talking to Dan O'Dowd maybe two three weeks ago about 555 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 1: this topic. Ft and the Ft Network is all over 556 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 1: this story. So first off, you've got Pinstripe Territory. They're 557 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 1: gonna be breaking news show for you on the Ryan 558 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 1: McMahon acquisition. So for Yankee fans out there, if you 559 00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 1: don't know Derek, get to know Derek and the show 560 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 1: part of the Ft Network, Eye Corner, Let Sizzle good Trade. Hey, 561 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: cam Maven with Derrik Kraftz. I'm Scott Braun. It's foul 562 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 1: Territory covering Josh Naylor to the Seattle Mariners. They need 563 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 1: corner infield help and look at them. Go here Cam 564 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 1: you first, what did you think of this one that 565 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 1: broke last night? 566 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:27,000 Speaker 3: Well, first off, guys, I do not control the Wi fi. 567 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 3: You know, it's getting close towards the end. 568 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 2: Of the month. 569 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:31,840 Speaker 3: End of the month, you know the phone starts acting 570 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 3: up because they want to remind you make sure you 571 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 3: pay that on the first So I just want to 572 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 3: say that. But as far as the ams go, you know, 573 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 3: I thought this was a great move for the Ams. 574 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 3: I think, you know, when you talk about the Ams 575 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 3: and pitching, they have a plethora of that, and they 576 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:47,680 Speaker 3: just reloaded in this year's draft, and they. 577 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 2: Do a great job of developing their arms. 578 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 3: So when you look at these two prospects they sent 579 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 3: both in their top twenty and Garcia, listen, he is 580 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 3: a punch out machine. I think this guy's very close 581 00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:59,480 Speaker 3: to being in the big leagues already. I think the 582 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,239 Speaker 3: other young man is in a ball but again a 583 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 3: top prospect, and then uh, you know, and then the 584 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 3: Diamondbacks unload Naylor before possibly a handy happens, if something 585 00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 3: happens and they can unload him. So I think this 586 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 3: is a great deal. I believe in Kevin Seisser and 587 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 3: and what he can do. Hopefully that is that piece. 588 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 3: I know they wanted you Heneyo Soris, but I think 589 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,120 Speaker 3: the price was too high, and I like this move 590 00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:23,000 Speaker 3: for both teams. 591 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 2: And then the other side too. 592 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 3: The Diamondbacks believe they have Dan Jordan Lawler ready, so 593 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:30,479 Speaker 3: I don't know if that, you know, somehow they move 594 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 3: you Heney over the first right now bring them up. 595 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 3: We'll see what happens. 596 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:37,040 Speaker 2: But I like this trade for both teams. Jeez, cam 597 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 2: do will be putting that hammy all over Josh. 598 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 4: Got to Seattle, you know how crafty and trying to 599 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 4: put that hammy all over Josh. 600 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 2: We just got there in his m's uniform. I like this. 601 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 2: I like this pick up. I honestly felt feel like 602 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 2: Ryan O'Hearn sitting there going who okay, good, I'm not 603 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:06,400 Speaker 2: going to Seattle because there is some some you need 604 00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 2: to have that plate discipline locked in because there's gonna 605 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 2: be days where the ball just is not going. It's 606 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 2: just not coming out of the bat, it's not coming 607 00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:17,760 Speaker 2: out of the batter's box. You need to make sure 608 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 2: you have your plate discipline, which Josh Naller either worked 609 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:26,320 Speaker 2: on this year or he has made a specific, concerted 610 00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:29,960 Speaker 2: effort to improve. I think it's a great pickup for him, 611 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 2: and I don't think the Mariners need to be done. 612 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:34,880 Speaker 2: And I love that they've actually done something because we 613 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 2: tied so many first basemen to the Mariners in the 614 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 2: offseason and they finally got one. 615 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 3: And let me add this to and I think at 616 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 3: the end of the day, this is a great trade. 617 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 3: And I think crass Sills agreed. Randyo Or Rose Arena 618 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 3: has been out his mind this season. Cal Rowley could 619 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:53,600 Speaker 3: be the MVP at the end of the day. This 620 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:55,479 Speaker 3: is a great piece. He adds some fire. He had 621 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 3: some fuel. But the third the when they said the 622 00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 3: strangest thirs, it's Jlio Rodriguez. He has to start to 623 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 3: play like a superstar. He brings the energy, he brings 624 00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 3: a smile, but his play hasn't metched that charismatic energy 625 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 3: that he brings. He has to play like a superstar. 626 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:13,760 Speaker 3: When you add Josh Naylor and Jerry Depolo goes and 627 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 3: makes this hype move, your superstar has to play just 628 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:17,959 Speaker 3: like that a superstar. 629 00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 1: Do you think the Mariners could be real players for 630 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:24,200 Speaker 1: Gino Suarez to bring him back to Seattle, which, in 631 00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:26,560 Speaker 1: my opinion, would kind of be his nightmare. Remember he's 632 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 1: been talking like, oh, the Yankees would be cool, the 633 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 1: Reds would be awesome for a reunion. I haven't heard 634 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 1: him on the record talk about Seattle. It has nothing 635 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 1: to do with the Org. That park's kind of a 636 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 1: nightmare for Nailor. He's a contact guy. It might take 637 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 1: a little bit of his pop away, but he also 638 00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 1: shed the qualifying offer. He's gonna be pretty happy with 639 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:47,880 Speaker 1: being twenty eight years old, hitting free agency for Gino Suarez, 640 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 1: hitting free agency, going back to Seattle. And also, let's 641 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:55,240 Speaker 1: remember Seattle dealt him away and they were somewhat public 642 00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 1: about how they didn't want as much swing and miss 643 00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:00,640 Speaker 1: in their lineup. They kind of took a shot directly 644 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 1: at Gino. I don't know, I think someone else is 645 00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 1: going to bid higher for him, don't you. 646 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 2: Yes, that's exactly where what I was gonna say, and 647 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,560 Speaker 2: that is that was ill advised taking a shot at 648 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:15,600 Speaker 2: Genosuarez because his strikeouts were not a product of Geno Suarez. 649 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 2: It was a product of what was going on in Seattle. 650 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:23,400 Speaker 2: Could he improve if he goes there with Kevin sitz Er. Look, 651 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:26,280 Speaker 2: it's two months. Kevin sites are sitting there going, hey, 652 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:30,280 Speaker 2: go do what you do. And to me, I don't think. 653 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,320 Speaker 2: I don't think they're in that realm. I don't think 654 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 2: they're even going to be close to Henosuarez because I 655 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 2: just think other teams need him, have a fit and 656 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 2: will pay extra. Jerry Depoto loves to trade, He loves 657 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 2: to make moves, finagle things, but he's got one of 658 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,760 Speaker 2: his hands tied behind his back from ownership, and it 659 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 2: might not be a money thing with Gino, but it 660 00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 2: ends up being a money thing because of all the 661 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:01,400 Speaker 2: prospects that need to be I just don't see the 662 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:02,239 Speaker 2: Mariners doing it. 663 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:04,280 Speaker 1: No, it is a money thing too. Gina costs five 664 00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 1: million dollars the rest of the year. That's real money. 665 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:10,319 Speaker 2: It's it's not that it's not that much money. It's 666 00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:12,800 Speaker 2: not that much money for the Mariners. 667 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 1: No, not, I disagree on this one. It's it's not 668 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 1: that much money. It shouldn't be for the Mariners, but 669 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 1: it is because ownership is super cheap. Anyone in Seattle 670 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,239 Speaker 1: knows that they saved up for years and then they 671 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:28,319 Speaker 1: let them down with the budget the last few years. 672 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 1: I don't want to play the whole ownership cheap game, 673 00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:32,640 Speaker 1: but it is true. I don't know what Nailor is 674 00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 1: getting for the rest of this year, but it's at 675 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:37,000 Speaker 1: least a few million bucks, right Kratz based on his ARM. 676 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:39,960 Speaker 2: Number, Yeah, I think he got ten or eleven in ARM. 677 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 2: I had to look at it, right, so. 678 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,279 Speaker 1: Probably a few mill left. Then you add Gino. Now 679 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 1: you're looking at going to your owner and saying I 680 00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 1: need eight for the last couple months of the season 681 00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:52,799 Speaker 1: and their owner is cheap. I'm just saying I would 682 00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:55,640 Speaker 1: not be surprised if he got turned down on that. 683 00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:57,799 Speaker 1: I mean, Seattle in the past sometimes has had to 684 00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 1: ask teams to give them some money back on trades, 685 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:03,840 Speaker 1: even though it wasn't that type of player, you know 686 00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:05,920 Speaker 1: what I mean, where it's like that awkward phone call 687 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 1: and you're like, can you eat a little? My owners 688 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 1: make me do it. I'll give you a better prospect 689 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:09,920 Speaker 1: than the teams are. 690 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:14,319 Speaker 2: Like what I hear you to me? To me, the 691 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:16,719 Speaker 2: only way Gino's money comes into play is when you 692 00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:20,280 Speaker 2: start talking about the teams over the luxury tax threshold 693 00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:23,799 Speaker 2: that are going to pay five million for Gino. We're 694 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,879 Speaker 2: at the one hundred and ten percent, so we're technically 695 00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:32,600 Speaker 2: paying ten point one for Gina or eleven point one 696 00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:36,400 Speaker 2: for Gino instead of instead of just the fives. To me, 697 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:40,200 Speaker 2: that's where that comes in. I think I think the 698 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:42,480 Speaker 2: Mariners will make another move, and I think it could 699 00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,160 Speaker 2: be close to that amount of money. To me, I 700 00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 2: thought I read something that they were in the nine 701 00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:52,279 Speaker 2: million dollar range where they could move and be able 702 00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:56,239 Speaker 2: to have nine million dollars worth of movement at the 703 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:58,840 Speaker 2: trade deadline. So does that mean they need to trade somebody. 704 00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:00,759 Speaker 2: I don't know who they would get rid of as 705 00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:02,960 Speaker 2: far as for money, but I'm saying they're still under 706 00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 2: that and Gino would still be under it. Again, it's 707 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:07,680 Speaker 2: kind of like the closer thing we talked about. I 708 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,200 Speaker 2: just think other teams are going to put in a 709 00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:14,279 Speaker 2: larger bid, whether it's prospects or whatever it is, to 710 00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:16,400 Speaker 2: get Gino, and that's where they'll fall short. 711 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:19,759 Speaker 1: Okay, I think Willie Castro could be a name. I 712 00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 1: don't know if he's been linked there, but he could 713 00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:24,279 Speaker 1: play a number of positions for the team. And yet, 714 00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 1: if Williamson does thrive for them the last couple months, 715 00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,680 Speaker 1: Castro can fill in other spots. I see more of 716 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,960 Speaker 1: that type of move for this team. They love Twins 717 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:36,960 Speaker 1: players too, I mean, Polanco's been a guy that they love. 718 00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:39,800 Speaker 1: And anyway, I think they did solve a big issue 719 00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:42,680 Speaker 1: over at first base. You know, it was rowdy for 720 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,719 Speaker 1: a bid while he was hot, and Donovan Solano and 721 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 1: Luke Rayley. This is a big upgrade. This is a 722 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:52,480 Speaker 1: one twenty three ops plus that's twenty three percent above 723 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:55,040 Speaker 1: league average. Like Kratz, mentioned the on base percentages fire 724 00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:57,480 Speaker 1: this year. He smashes right handed pitching. I know it's 725 00:36:57,520 --> 00:36:59,319 Speaker 1: going to be in Seattle, so things might tick down 726 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 1: a little bit in the power department. But nice pick 727 00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 1: up here by the Seattle Mariners. We have JJ Cooper 728 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 1: with more on the Arizona Diamondbacks return with the Seattle 729 00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:13,200 Speaker 1: Mariners deal. So let's cue that if we have it, 730 00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:14,239 Speaker 1: do we have it good to go? 731 00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:17,680 Speaker 5: So what did the d Backs get for first baseman 732 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:20,400 Speaker 5: Josh Taylor. Well, let's start by just saying, if you 733 00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:24,160 Speaker 5: are trading a rental first baseman, Naylor will be a 734 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:26,360 Speaker 5: free agency end of the season. You're not going to 735 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:28,400 Speaker 5: get a ton. Don't expect a top hundred prospect, and 736 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:31,000 Speaker 5: you didn't see that. Here you are talking about Ashton Iszy, 737 00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 5: right hander who is the number thirteen prospect in our 738 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:37,400 Speaker 5: Mariner's top thirty, and Brandon Garcia, left hander who's our 739 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:40,760 Speaker 5: number nineteen prospect. They're very different though they're both pitchers. 740 00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:44,320 Speaker 5: But in Izy you are talking about a potential starter, 741 00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:47,280 Speaker 5: one who is far away. He's an a ball right now, 742 00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:50,400 Speaker 5: he has a starter's mix, he manages to miss bats. 743 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:53,319 Speaker 5: There's everything here to maybe be a starter, But you're 744 00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:55,200 Speaker 5: also talking about a guy who's an a ball who 745 00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:58,719 Speaker 5: has a lot of those a lot of work to do, 746 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:01,360 Speaker 5: because there's a lot of work between a ball and 747 00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:05,319 Speaker 5: the big leagues. If he develops as now the as 748 00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:07,600 Speaker 5: the Mariners hoped and now the d Backs hope, you 749 00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:09,719 Speaker 5: are talking about a guy who could start, could be 750 00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:12,840 Speaker 5: three four years down the road in Arizona. That's a 751 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:16,440 Speaker 5: realistic timeline. If everything goes right, that's good. But at 752 00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:18,400 Speaker 5: the same time, you also have to acknowledge that a 753 00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 5: lot of these pitchers who look like this in a 754 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:23,839 Speaker 5: ball end up being relievers. Some of them end up 755 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 5: getting hurt, some of them run into control troubles or 756 00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:29,719 Speaker 5: other things that derail them along the way. You are 757 00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:32,279 Speaker 5: talking about a chance at a big league starter who 758 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:33,959 Speaker 5: also has a chance to be a big league believer, 759 00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:36,480 Speaker 5: and you just understand that you are taking the risk 760 00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:38,880 Speaker 5: that a lot of things still have to happen for 761 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:42,920 Speaker 5: this to all come together. Garcia's very much the opposite 762 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:46,480 Speaker 5: end of the spectrum here. Garcia is a big league 763 00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:49,480 Speaker 5: ready did pitch a couple of games with Seattle, big 764 00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:53,560 Speaker 5: league ready lefty reliever. It's solid stuff. You're talking about 765 00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:56,760 Speaker 5: a ninety six ninety seven nine hour sinker. He works 766 00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:00,440 Speaker 5: very horizontally in and out. He's a left with a 767 00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:04,399 Speaker 5: sweeper and a sinker who you're kind of you're kind 768 00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:06,480 Speaker 5: of going to really expect him to be solid against 769 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:08,919 Speaker 5: lefties and you hope he's good enough against right handed 770 00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 5: hitters to make it work as a optionable reliever. I 771 00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:16,560 Speaker 5: think that is a key thing here. Everyone needs everyone. 772 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 5: Every team covets relievers who can go up and down. 773 00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 5: So when you are worn out in your bullpen, you 774 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 5: can send a guy down, or if you're worn out 775 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:25,960 Speaker 5: and you need to bring a guy up, you can 776 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,799 Speaker 5: bring a guy up, and then when you are kind 777 00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 5: of in a better place, you can send that guy 778 00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:32,680 Speaker 5: back down. That is something that Brandon Garcia will be 779 00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:34,480 Speaker 5: able to do for a couple of years here. I 780 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:37,400 Speaker 5: would say you're talking more likely about a lower leverage reliever, 781 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:39,280 Speaker 5: not someone who's going to pitch the eighth or the ninth, 782 00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:42,759 Speaker 5: but the ability to do that right now, especially if 783 00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:45,000 Speaker 5: you can start to throw a few more a few 784 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:49,640 Speaker 5: more consistent and quality strikes, that's a useful reliever to have, 785 00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 5: which is a nice pickup. As we said, for a 786 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:55,880 Speaker 5: rental first baseman. But if you're Seattle, you were able 787 00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:59,600 Speaker 5: to add a first baseman who will definitely upgrade a 788 00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:01,880 Speaker 5: clear weak spot for the team, and you did it 789 00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:04,759 Speaker 5: without dipping into the top end of what is a 790 00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:08,719 Speaker 5: very impressive top tier of prospects. 791 00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:12,279 Speaker 1: Mike Rodriguez with the report. According to sources close to 792 00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:13,960 Speaker 1: the ORG, the Cubs have decided not to hold any 793 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,319 Speaker 1: of their promises in the minor league system. Front Op's 794 00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:18,440 Speaker 1: ready to consider offers for any younger player types. We've 795 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 1: seen this from quite a few insiders to Moyses Balisteros, 796 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:27,640 Speaker 1: Jefferson Rojas, Kevin Alcantra, Christian Hernandez. I'll add Owen Casey 797 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:31,800 Speaker 1: to the mix here. This is a good problem, Kratz. 798 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:35,319 Speaker 1: They have developed some solid position player talent in the 799 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:38,279 Speaker 1: minor league since they are ready to make moves, and 800 00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:40,719 Speaker 1: they will make moves. So let's keep an eye on 801 00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:43,439 Speaker 1: the Cubs, and yes, in two minutes, we're all over 802 00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:47,759 Speaker 1: this Rocky Yankees trade. But Kratz, Cubs I think need 803 00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:52,560 Speaker 1: a bullpen piece, a starter who can start a playoff game. 804 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:55,279 Speaker 1: I think is probably number one. I would say that's 805 00:40:55,360 --> 00:41:01,120 Speaker 1: number one on the list. Bullpen piece two, third basement three, 806 00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:04,400 Speaker 1: whether it's somebody that know you think they're gonna roll 807 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:04,799 Speaker 1: with Shaw. 808 00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:10,520 Speaker 2: I love Shaw's defense. I get it, you know, he's 809 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:14,279 Speaker 2: he's he really struggles against east and west pitches. But 810 00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:17,000 Speaker 2: I really like Shaw's defense at third, some of the 811 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:19,719 Speaker 2: plays he's making and keeps him athletic. He runs the 812 00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:21,640 Speaker 2: base as well. You got to get on base to 813 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:27,160 Speaker 2: run the bases. But I to me, they have you 814 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:29,919 Speaker 2: have to, you have to push hard for some type 815 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:34,760 Speaker 2: of starting pitcher. And I would love to see them say, 816 00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:36,880 Speaker 2: you know what, we're the team that's gonna push hard 817 00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:41,120 Speaker 2: for Sandy al Contra. And I say that because if 818 00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:44,239 Speaker 2: he continues to trend up by the time he gets 819 00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:48,480 Speaker 2: to September, do they have him as their number two 820 00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 2: starter in the playoffs? Like I just I just feel 821 00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:56,600 Speaker 2: like they're in a position to maybe be a little reckless. 822 00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:01,680 Speaker 2: Like Bellisterio Stick called up earlier this year, it didn't 823 00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:04,359 Speaker 2: work out, it's time. It's okay to give a dude 824 00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:06,640 Speaker 2: that's hitting like three point fifty to another team. And 825 00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:09,560 Speaker 2: it may look like a bad trade right out the gate, 826 00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:12,920 Speaker 2: but the Labor Torres for Roaldus Chapman trade looked like 827 00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:15,240 Speaker 2: a bad trade and what did that get the Cubs 828 00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:18,040 Speaker 2: a World Series? The Cubs won to win a World Series, 829 00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:20,640 Speaker 2: they traded for Kyle Tucker to win this year. 830 00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:23,200 Speaker 1: It was one of the best trades of all time. 831 00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:26,200 Speaker 1: Why because they hadn't won a World Series in over 832 00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:29,960 Speaker 1: a century and they acquired a guy that helped them 833 00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:31,480 Speaker 1: win a World Series and you don't know if they 834 00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:33,920 Speaker 1: win it without him. They had a super small circle 835 00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:37,560 Speaker 1: of trust back then for Joe Madden riding the couple 836 00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:39,560 Speaker 1: guys that he felt good about in the bullpen, and 837 00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:42,439 Speaker 1: it worked out for them. It's the same status here. 838 00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:44,880 Speaker 1: But the point is they have prospect that they're in 839 00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 1: a good position to swing a deal. 840 00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:49,200 Speaker 2: Good, be a little reckless. 841 00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:03,040 Speaker 1: Let's slap. We got a few extra minutes for it. 842 00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:05,760 Speaker 1: So we can look ahead at the weekend schedule, crats, 843 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:07,680 Speaker 1: So take a glance when you get a chance and 844 00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 1: tell me what you're going to be watching for me. 845 00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:12,919 Speaker 1: I'm looking at anything that involves potential players that can 846 00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:16,680 Speaker 1: be dealt. Also, some reminders for everyone. Next week, we're 847 00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:18,960 Speaker 1: on like we usually are one to three Eastern, except 848 00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:22,120 Speaker 1: for Thursday. Thursday is one to six pm Eastern, so 849 00:43:22,160 --> 00:43:24,759 Speaker 1: we can take you through the trade deadline. It is 850 00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 1: deadline day on a Thursday, and there are not many 851 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:29,000 Speaker 1: games as far as I know too, which makes it 852 00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:32,560 Speaker 1: even better. You can just focus on the trades. Aj 853 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:34,840 Speaker 1: Pierzinski will be back with us next week. We have 854 00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:39,880 Speaker 1: invites out to basically any insider or national reporter regardless 855 00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:42,279 Speaker 1: of publication, so we'll get as many of them as 856 00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:45,239 Speaker 1: we can from Monday through Friday to break down what 857 00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:47,319 Speaker 1: happens leading up to it, and then the Friday Show 858 00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:50,520 Speaker 1: is always fun after it to recap all of the deals. 859 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:53,400 Speaker 1: All right, krats, you got something you're circling this weekend 860 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:56,000 Speaker 1: for US Mets Giants. 861 00:43:56,600 --> 00:44:00,200 Speaker 2: What are the Mets? What are the Mets? They are 862 00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:04,400 Speaker 2: a team that has built their pitching and their offense 863 00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:07,160 Speaker 2: needs to go out there. They need to go out 864 00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:09,680 Speaker 2: there and they need to kind of carry this team 865 00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:12,640 Speaker 2: through the time when they're pitching is like, we're not 866 00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:15,879 Speaker 2: sure what we're doing. They went and got Gregorysoto and 867 00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:21,400 Speaker 2: they're in San Francisco. A lot of under there. They 868 00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:24,520 Speaker 2: gotta face. Logan Web is not who you're looking to 869 00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:27,200 Speaker 2: face when you're trying to start a series out on 870 00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:29,480 Speaker 2: the weekend. It's gonna be a tough series out there, 871 00:44:29,719 --> 00:44:31,800 Speaker 2: probably a lot of low scoring games, though. 872 00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:37,920 Speaker 1: For me, here's a few. The Royals want to stay 873 00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:41,680 Speaker 1: involved and be buyers this according to Ken Rosenthal earlier 874 00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:44,880 Speaker 1: on our show, you need to take it to the 875 00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:48,520 Speaker 1: Cleveland Guardians. It's a good matchup. It starts with Waka 876 00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:52,080 Speaker 1: against Gavin Williams. Williams been pretty solid lately. You need 877 00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:55,160 Speaker 1: to win that series. Another one in the same realm. 878 00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:58,200 Speaker 1: If the Texas Rangers want to try and give you 879 00:44:58,200 --> 00:44:59,960 Speaker 1: a little taste of what they did in twenty twenty 880 00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:02,200 Speaker 1: they were not a great spot in the regular season. 881 00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:04,480 Speaker 1: In twenty twenty three, they just made it. They were 882 00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:07,080 Speaker 1: a wild card team that could happen again. It's a 883 00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:10,480 Speaker 1: really good pitching staff. Can the offense come around? And 884 00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:13,719 Speaker 1: can you beat down Atlanta in a series this week? 885 00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:16,399 Speaker 1: Going to beat up Atlanta team, So Kratz, that one 886 00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:19,040 Speaker 1: for me stands out. I think San Diego and Saint 887 00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:21,600 Speaker 1: Louis as well. I want to see Nick Pivetta tonight 888 00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:24,279 Speaker 1: against Miles Michaelis and also the Padres got to get 889 00:45:24,280 --> 00:45:26,200 Speaker 1: going a little bit. You know. I like this team 890 00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:29,600 Speaker 1: since the offseason, but this is a big day for 891 00:45:29,719 --> 00:45:32,480 Speaker 1: Nick Pivetta. They spend some money on him to shove 892 00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:35,560 Speaker 1: it to a Cardinals team that's probably in cell mode. 893 00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:37,560 Speaker 1: But I think if the Cardinals one tonight, they'd be 894 00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:40,239 Speaker 1: like a game and a half or two away from 895 00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:42,960 Speaker 1: the Padres. So some of this starts to get very interesting. 896 00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:46,680 Speaker 2: It does, and you look at even you know, the 897 00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:51,160 Speaker 2: Diamondbacks obviously started selling. They're three and a half before 898 00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:53,840 Speaker 2: two and a half behind behind the Cardinals, and the 899 00:45:53,880 --> 00:45:56,279 Speaker 2: Cardinals like, yeah, I get it, I get what you're 900 00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:59,120 Speaker 2: saying looking at those series, but there's definitely some There's 901 00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:02,960 Speaker 2: two stoppers, and you mentioned one of them. Pavetta needs 902 00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:05,200 Speaker 2: to go out and be the stopper for because I 903 00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:07,840 Speaker 2: think Michael King's the better pitcher when he's healthy, but 904 00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:10,400 Speaker 2: he's not there right now. So Pavetta needs to be 905 00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:13,120 Speaker 2: the stopper for the Padres. He needs to get this 906 00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:15,480 Speaker 2: team back on the winning track, no matter what the 907 00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:18,200 Speaker 2: offense does, which has to start picking it up. And 908 00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:22,520 Speaker 2: to me, Tarrek Scoogle, anytime Terror Scooble's pitching, he has 909 00:46:22,600 --> 00:46:25,520 Speaker 2: to go out and win. And no more in this 910 00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:28,600 Speaker 2: entire season, maybe even the last two seasons, has there 911 00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:31,040 Speaker 2: been a bigger time for him to help this team 912 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:33,440 Speaker 2: out of this slide that they've been on. 913 00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:38,120 Speaker 1: I'm not even going to look at the Fox schedule, 914 00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:40,319 Speaker 1: but I'm going to guess with confidence that they are 915 00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:43,919 Speaker 1: covering the Phillies Yankees and the Dodgers, Red Sox Big 916 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:46,400 Speaker 1: Boy Markets. So those are two matchups. Keep an eye. 917 00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:49,319 Speaker 1: You'll probably get them nationally. As my guess see if 918 00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:51,280 Speaker 1: the Yankees can bounce back there four and a half 919 00:46:51,560 --> 00:46:55,680 Speaker 1: away from Toronto. And for the Dodgers and the Red Sox, 920 00:46:55,680 --> 00:46:57,440 Speaker 1: I don't know if the Dodgers are gonna have Mookie 921 00:46:57,440 --> 00:46:58,839 Speaker 1: Betts this week, and I know he's out for some 922 00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:01,080 Speaker 1: personal reasons at least for a game or two. I'm 923 00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:04,560 Speaker 1: not sure what his deal is. And with Boston, you 924 00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:07,200 Speaker 1: gotta get yourself a little roll proved to the GM 925 00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:10,680 Speaker 1: that he should push some chips in at the deadline. Lastly, 926 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:13,959 Speaker 1: if you're in the Philly area or down the shore 927 00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:17,080 Speaker 1: in Ocean City, New Jersey, on Sunday eleven thirty Eastern time, 928 00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:19,280 Speaker 1: the Philly Show is doing a live show with really 929 00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:22,480 Speaker 1: great guests, So make sure you get yourself locked to 930 00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:26,200 Speaker 1: the Philly Show Twitter and Instagram.

Maybe they could do something cool Manco Manco 939 00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:52,240 Speaker 2: for life. 940 00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:54,960 Speaker 1: Hey, the king of the Big Swing is making the 941 00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:57,000 Speaker 1: best day of the week even sweeter.
