1
00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:12,320
Speaker 1: What is up? Mets fans, Welcome back to another episode

2
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:15,800
Speaker 1: of the Mets Up Podcast. We have got some things

3
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:19,800
Speaker 1: to talk about real quick. Edwin Diaz sick, sticky stuff.

4
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:23,720
Speaker 1: Suspend it ten games automatic initially, No, I think it's automatic.

5
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:25,560
Speaker 1: It's automatic. There's no appeal, there's no appeal for a

6
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:27,880
Speaker 1: six appeal once you get once you get ejected from

7
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 1: the game. It's a ten games suspension automatically. So we

8
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,160
Speaker 1: will not see Edwin Diaz for basically two the next

9
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 1: two weeks in terms of games that are being played.

10
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:37,320
Speaker 1: The other thing that's a little bit concerning as well

11
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:39,880
Speaker 1: too is that we lose that roster spot, so we

12
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:42,280
Speaker 1: will be playing with twenty five men for the next

13
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:45,000
Speaker 1: ten games as well. But on the bright side, the

14
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:46,720
Speaker 1: Mets did win the series, took two or three from

15
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:48,839
Speaker 1: the Cubs, who are a direct competitor of ours for

16
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 1: the wild card. So things are pretty good in Mets

17
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 1: world still at the end of the day, including a absolute

18
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 1: pissing of just being they shit out of the Cubs

19
00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 1: in Game one eleven one was so good. That was

20
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 1: so good. We'll talk about everything going on in Mets

21
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 1: world as well as the series. As always, make sure

26
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:13,760
Speaker 1: was at a bachelor party this weekend and I didn't

27
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,520

Speaker 1: out at the end of the episode. James, how are

33
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,319
Speaker 1: things down in New York? I was in Bethany Beach, Delaware,

34
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 1: and somehow blacked out from watching these games. I don't

35
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,760
Speaker 1: know how Delaware is the New York market that is

36
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,399
Speaker 1: dirty Philly terry territory, or even the Orioles or the Nationals.

37
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 2: They said Mets Cubs can't watch that. I'll even give

38
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 2: you the brasee. But as we said before and I'll

39
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 2: say again, that's just more Rob Manford bastardizing the game.

40
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 2: We love. New York was so hot this week. I

41
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,160
Speaker 2: don't know if it was as hot in Delaware, but

42
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 2: it was a sticky ninety five with eighty percent every day.

43
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 2: But so nice to have some afternoon games on Friday

44
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,559
Speaker 2: and Saturday, especially Friday, just a nice two o'clock game

45
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 2: to ease into the day. I was working at night,

46
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 2: so I could just like sit down on the couch,

47
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:11,959
Speaker 2: but actually even didn't wind up sitting down the couch

48
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 2: and running somemarons.

49
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 1: I did.

50
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,920
Speaker 2: Pat McCarthy and Keith rad on the radio. They had

51
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 2: a great series calling these games. Got great series from

52
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 2: the guys, but amazing series in the Mess that sadly

53
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 2: just gets painfully overshadowed now by Edmond das sticky stuff suspension.

54
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 2: And it's weirdly part of a trend because Tim Kirkton

55
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 2: two weeks ago says, Edwin Diaz is a guy that's

56
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 2: no infusing sticky stuff, And there was a conversation on

57
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,919
Speaker 2: the broadcast between with David Cohne saying that like to him,

58
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 2: because people a lot of people zoomed in Edwin d

59
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:41,239
Speaker 2: has a hand on Twitter and showed the picture and

60
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,359
Speaker 2: there was like, definitely there were residue in his hand.

61
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 2: It looked like there was like a sediment and also like, yeah,

62
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 2: like kind of brownish, and David Cone was like, that

63
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 2: could be rosin, that might not be rosen. He's like,

64
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 2: I wouldn't be surprised that it is rosen. But now,

65
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 2: in two years of sticky stuff suspension, seven players have

66
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 2: been caught. Read the seven are from the bets. Yeah, no,

67
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 2: just a little bit frustrating. Yeah, it was a little weird,

68
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 2: Like I definitely am witch hunt.

69
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 1: I'm in. I'm in on the witch hunt take. But also,

70
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 1: uh yeah, I probably would have said something too if

71
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,360
Speaker 1: I was the umpire based on what Edwin's hands looked like, like,

72
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,919
Speaker 1: like you said, they looked dirty. They looked like there

73
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 1: was like some blue or something on there. It is confusing, though,

74
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 1: because we never actually get clarification as to what the

75
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 1: deal is. They just eject him because the hands are

76
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 1: too sticky deemable to the Umpire, which we've seen before

77
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,959
Speaker 1: Tamingo Herman. Remember, he had stuff all over his hands,

78
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 1: and he's cheated once before, he'll cheat again, I'm sure.

79
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 1: But he had sicky stuff on his hands and they

80
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 1: told him to wash his hands and that was fine.

81
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: So where is the transparency here? It seems like the

82
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 1: sicky stuff thing, which is again a trend for Rob

83
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: Manford rules in Major League Baseball not very black and white,

84
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 1: very much opinion based, subjective stuff.

85
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 2: It's painful because there's no checks and balances, the suspench

86
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 2: on like I guess, like you just taught me before.

87
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 2: There's no appeal process. It's just the crew chief. It

88
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 2: was Vikara Paza, who just can you ejected you from

89
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 2: the game, and that's a final say, and then you

90
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 2: lose a roster spot for ten days, and that's such

91
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 2: a critical loss because the Mets are team that's about

92
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 2: to play starting next Friday after the Subway Series or

93
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 2: this Friday, seventeen games in seventeen days, I think, right

94
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 2: up exactly until the All Star break, or maybe just

95
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,159
Speaker 2: the week before, playing every single day. So to be

96
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 2: down a reliever and to be down again objectively your

97
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 2: best reliever as you were starting to pitch his best again.

98
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 2: Maybe it was because some sicky stuff, maybe it wasn't.

99
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 2: Who knows. But there's also a tweak going around right

100
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 2: now by Abby Mastraco, who is loathing, loathing, the Mets

101
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,159
Speaker 2: writer for the Daily News, So take it at that.

102
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 2: She said that this Carlos Mendoza confirms, and the sticky

103
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 2: stuff ejection. Vic car Posa told Mendoza it was too

104
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 2: much rosin which to me, if it's a legal substance, you.

105
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 1: Should be allowed to use as much as you want.

106
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 1: How can you too much of something that's allowed.

107
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 2: I don't know that, That's what I'm thinking right now.

108
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 2: That's a strange thing. And also there was there was

109
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 2: a moment too though, when this conversation was happening where

110
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 2: if you read like the body language of Carls Mendoza

111
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 2: and Francisco Alvarez not yeah, it seemed like there was

112
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 2: not that much contesting to what was happening out there.

113
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:05,719
Speaker 2: It was like, all right, all right, you got that sucks,

114
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 2: but yeah. And then even the worst part of this

115
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 2: is like the chaos ensued where Drew Smith had to

116
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:12,160
Speaker 2: warm up and then come into the game and he

117
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 2: did a full ass warm up, took him like seven minutes,

118
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,480
Speaker 2: and it looked like he got injured again his last

119
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 2: battery of the game the training and Jeremy Hefner ran

120
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,799
Speaker 2: out and then he left the game. After that, Batler

121
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 2: was out and he gave up like a seeing I single.

122
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 2: So and then press squelfress. His glove broke too as

123
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,039
Speaker 2: his nineteen You guy, he's been more chaotic. It was

124
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 2: just it was like ten minutes should have been such

125
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 2: an easy five to two victory. Drew Smith was probably

126
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 2: just chilling. Pat McCarthy had left the radio booth to

127
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,359
Speaker 2: go downstairs to get ready for the postgame press conmerce.

128
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 2: They have to run back upstairs and then run back downstairs.

129
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 2: But just it's never easy. And that's world.

130
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,040
Speaker 1: It really never is. It never is. Uh, it's weird.

131
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 1: I guess we'll find out more about this Edwinds sicky

132
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 1: stuff situation at the end of the day. If it

133
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 1: too much rosin, that's that feels inexcusable. I know I

134
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 1: won't mention now who shall not be named who's been

135
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: blackballed from baseball, But he did a video about how

136
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:58,839
Speaker 1: sweat and rosin can literally make the ball just like

137
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 1: stick to your hand. And he did it and video

138
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 1: of it and showed it. It's tough. I don't know

139
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 1: what the right call is. I don't know what the

140
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 1: right rule is, but I think whatever it is, they

141
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 1: do need to look at how this rule is written

142
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 1: up and they need to make it more definitive because

143
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 1: it is way too subjective.

144
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's also again it's painful, but there's not really

145
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:17,600
Speaker 2: checking out. There's never a subjective Yeah, you got it,

146
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:18,839
Speaker 2: you nailed it. Not objective.

147
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I held it. I've been going to

148
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 1: sleep at six am and waking up at ten o'clock

149
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,119
Speaker 1: in the morning every single night for the last four nights.

150
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:28,479
Speaker 1: My brain is fried. I don't even really know what

151
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 1: day it is.

152
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you're totally sound kissed Sunday Monday when you

153
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 2: guys are listening. But it's just painful. It's just again,

154
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 2: I can't. I keep going back to the fact that

155
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,479
Speaker 2: the Mets are gonna lose a player in there in

156
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,720
Speaker 2: their bullpen, because they were talked also in the last

157
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:41,719
Speaker 2: couple days about this was when Christian Scott was finally

158
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,280
Speaker 2: going to come back, probably make one more start in

159
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,040
Speaker 2: the minor leagues than do it, and they were gonna

160
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 2: do with a six man rotation, which makes the most sense.

161
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,040
Speaker 2: Christian Scott at all levels so far this year has

162
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 2: sixty five innings and there's about half a season of

163
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 2: baseball left, and you only had about one hundred and

164
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:55,360
Speaker 2: thirty innings on his arm. This year, like that was

165
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,839
Speaker 2: the plan. So he has about exactly half a season

166
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,920
Speaker 2: left and now for ten days, two times rotation, you're

167
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 2: down a bullpen guys who doesn't even make sense to

168
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 2: carry six men. Rotation like this probably pushes that back

169
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 2: to it. It's just you need a lot and this,

170
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 2: this Mets starting rotation has proven to be a bit

171
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 2: of an achilles heels. This for this team and now,

172
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 2: similar to last year, both times Mets sticky suffuspension really

173
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 2: hurt them in the standings because it's just your down

174
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 2: a pitcher down a whole pitcher's insane. It's tough. This

175
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 2: is gonna be really tough ten days. Now, it's like

176
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 2: we're gonna sucks because those those ten games are mostly

177
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 2: also gonna come against good dcor Well half it's five

178
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 2: games Yankees and Astros, and then it was gonna be

179
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 2: five games I think against the Nationals and Rockies. I mean,

180
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 2: we'll check at the end of the episode. But that

181
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 2: just to terrible.

182
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 1: This happened, bad timing for sure, nothing else, nothing else

183
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 1: to say about that. There's literally no conversation we had.

184
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 1: He's suspended now for ten games, and that is it.

185
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 1: Tim Kirkshon you started this witch hunt, and I won't

186
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 1: forget it.

187
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 2: Might have been ready. He just might have been right.

188
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 1: He might have been right.

189
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 2: You might have been totally right. But let's jump back

190
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 2: out talk about the rest of the series, because was

191
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,080
Speaker 2: another great series for the Mets. They won another series.

192
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 2: They've won thirteen out of seventeen games they back to

193
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 2: I feel like I don't know when that was, but

194
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 2: I saw that just I just saw it looking at

195
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 2: the schedule right now. I remember when that started against but

196
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 2: so cool Friday afternoon on a standalone baseball game, to

197
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 2: beat the piss out of chote I Managa.

198
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, throwing ten earned runs on him, the guy who

199
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: everyone was ready to crown the cy Young Award winner

200
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 1: in the National League, clear rookie of the Year, guy

201
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 1: that the Mets saw earlier in the year. He absolutely

202
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: diced us up, completely destroyed us. And then album this

203
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 1: is the first time any team is face showed out

204
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 1: twice where the first team Yes, so this might be

205
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 1: just going around the league kind of thing that's gonna

206
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 1: happen much more rare than this day and age. Again

207
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,559
Speaker 1: with Rob Manford's bastization of the game where you play

208
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 1: every team in the league, and you don't get to

209
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 1: know the teams in your league and your division as

210
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 1: much as you would like to. But interesting to note

211
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 1: that this is the first team that face showed out

212
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,320
Speaker 1: twice and they hit the crap out of them. I mean,

213
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 1: that is interesting to note. And we talked with Lance

214
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 1: Brosdowski about what he does so well. He didn't do

215
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,440
Speaker 1: anything well this game. He just got chilled.

216
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 2: Now I got crushed. Lance said that Chotte was due

217
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 2: for some home run regression and he got a lot

218
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 2: of it at three home runs like nemo jd in

219
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 2: the first inning and Francisco Alvarez and a showtas Eri

220
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 2: went from one point eight nine to two point ninety

221
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 2: six in one day. One day, and the mess had

222
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 2: eleven hits and three plus innings. Eleven hits and three

223
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 2: plus innings, ridiculous.

224
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,320
Speaker 1: Do we think the Mets figured something out? Like how

225
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 1: are you thinking about this? For Shota? Do you think

226
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,560
Speaker 1: that he's been he's now getting figured out? Second time

227
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,559
Speaker 1: someone's seen him, they're like, oh, maybe not as nasty

228
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: as we thought. Or this is just like sometimes you

229
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,240
Speaker 1: pitch poorly and the wind was blown out and regularly

230
00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 1: I think it's.

231
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 2: A little bit of both. I think conceptually, with a

232
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 2: guy like Chota, that fastball has such a low slot

233
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 2: and gets on you so fast relatives to the velocity

234
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:36,560
Speaker 2: that I think it just probably takes you seeing him

235
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 2: a few times to be like, oh, let me just

236
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 2: let me just swing a top of where I expect

237
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 2: this ball to be. Like that might just have to

238
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:42,719
Speaker 2: be a mental queue you take with yourself as a

239
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,439
Speaker 2: hitter into a game like this, because you'll just keep

240
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 2: swinging under it otherwise. But also, the wind was blowing

241
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:49,200
Speaker 2: out and this is just a team of seem twice

242
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 2: and the Mets lineup is on fire right now. The

243
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,959
Speaker 2: top of the order, the top three, Lindor, Nemo, Jd,

244
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,680
Speaker 2: that top three has been special in this game. Those

245
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 2: three combined to go seven for thirteen, two home runs,

246
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,959
Speaker 2: six RBIs seven run scored from three players through six rbi,

247
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:05,080
Speaker 2: seven runs score. It's incredible. And that first inning, it

248
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 2: was just it happened right away. When Door smacked the double,

249
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,400
Speaker 2: Nimo took the walk, JD hit the home run, that

250
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 2: just in the jet stream, and it was just it

251
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 2: was cooked from there.

252
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,400
Speaker 1: Yeah. No, I mean the offense was clicking from the beginning.

253
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 1: It was great. It was a very relaxing game to watch,

254
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:20,680
Speaker 1: although we did get to see Adamanavino throw forty four pitches,

255
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:22,319
Speaker 1: which that's insane.

256
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 2: It almost felt bad for him. I went back and

257
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 2: looked a prepping for the episode and this was the

258
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 2: most pitches out of Vino was throwing the game since

259
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:33,080
Speaker 2: June twenty fifth, twenty seventeen, almost like seven years to

260
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,720
Speaker 2: the day. And there's craziest thing is that when they

261
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 2: used in forty four pitches in this game, it was

262
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 2: to save the bullpen. He gave length. I think it

263
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 2: was two and third, two and two thirds innings after

264
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:43,840
Speaker 2: after Kantana came out talked about Katana in the second

265
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,439
Speaker 2: seed did some cool in this game too. When Alamnavino

266
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 2: threw forty eight pitches, the only time he threw more

267
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 2: pitches in one inning, I mean in the outing. It

268
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 2: happened in one inning of work when he was still

269
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 2: with the rocky cave of six earned runs, when as

270
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 2: a setup man coming in for to hold the lead

271
00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 2: twenty seventeen against the Dodgers six earned runs and got

272
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 2: the loss.

273
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 1: That's that's brutal. Forty eight in one inning is that's

274
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 1: almost like a crime that should be a punishment.

275
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:07,520
Speaker 2: There's I mean, it is a punishment because he was

276
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 2: part of the Rockies organization. That's the punishment. Don't think

277
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,079
Speaker 2: it's any other team baseball that would allow someone to

278
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:13,240
Speaker 2: do something like that besides the color round of the Rockies.

279
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 2: But while talk about Katana's been very critical of him,

280
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 2: you have to give him some credit because I meant,

281
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 2: pitching with that lead, it's like, that's very easy. The

282
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 2: Mets spot him eleven runs in three innings, so then

283
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 2: it's just from there you just kind of cruise. I

284
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 2: got so mad after the Mets scored in the first

285
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 2: inning that he walked the lead up guy in the bottle. First,

286
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 2: I was pissed. I was I was like stopping around

287
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,520
Speaker 2: my apartment. I was so mad. And then and then

288
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 2: he eased in. But there was a meaningful pitch mixchange

289
00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 2: of jose Kntana. This was the first game he started

290
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 2: all year where he used his curveball as his primary pitch,

291
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:43,600
Speaker 2: and his curveball has been the one pitch that's still

292
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:45,319
Speaker 2: been able to stick out for him, still mispatch through

293
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 2: this season. He threw thirty three percent of the time

294
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 2: as the most he's used it in a single game

295
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 2: as a Met, and the first time again he had

296
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 2: as his primary pitch in twenty twenty four.

297
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,240
Speaker 1: Do you think that's a Jose Kintana change or do

298
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 1: you think that's a game plan thing against the Cubs.

299
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 2: I think it could be gameplay ish because and we'll

300
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 2: get to this jumping around a little bit. Tyler McGill also,

301
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 2: after he got crushed in the first inning by the Cubs,

302
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 2: he went to more curveballs and they said on television,

303
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:11,679
Speaker 2: it was the Fox broadcast, they said that was an

304
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:15,320
Speaker 2: alpha Francisco Alvarez thing. But Cantana did the day before

305
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 2: and it was just it just works. I don't know,

306
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 2: it just worked.

307
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean he pitched, he pitched well enough. Happy

308
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 1: to see Gitana pitch well, get it hot. Trade him

309
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,720
Speaker 1: at the deadline for anything, I'm in and I will.

310
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,200
Speaker 2: This is gonna be a discussion now about the Mets

311
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:33,080
Speaker 2: deadline because Puma tweeted on I think it was Saturday

312
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 2: afternoon that the Mets, as they're playing well, are looking

313
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,719
Speaker 2: to still trade their pitchers, but maintain the hitters and

314
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:41,720
Speaker 2: stay in the race. And then now you get to

315
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:46,520
Speaker 2: Sunday where Luis Evrino was fucking awesome. He was everything

316
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 2: that you wanted to see for him this year, jumping

317
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,559
Speaker 2: around but like the velocity was there was throwing ninety eight.

318
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:53,640
Speaker 2: He finally leaned on the sweepers like I've been begging

319
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 2: him to do, and like use that as an outpitch,

320
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 2: and it was just the emotion I love watching a

321
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 2: pitch because he gets so excited that there six ten strikeouts,

322
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 2: no walks, no runs. First time in twenty eighteen, critsy

323
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 2: Sarah Lanks that he had ten strikeouts and no walks

324
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:07,720
Speaker 2: when he had done it five times in his career

325
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 2: up until twenty eighteen, which is just again showing that

326
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 2: the oscillations of Severino. But snap decision right now? Would

327
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 2: you trade him?

328
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 1: Yep? Yeah, trade him right now.

329
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 2: I agree as well. I feel like that's something's gonna

330
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 2: get some shit from the Mets fans. People are talking

331
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 2: about it on Twitter, but I just you just gotta

332
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:29,960
Speaker 2: look at the whole. But I don't know, He's still great,

333
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 2: like the easound three two nine in the year, he

334
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 2: finally also again was using so many more two strike

335
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:35,560
Speaker 2: sweepers pitch have four with and it was a big

336
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 2: reason he jumped in the ten strikeouts in this game,

337
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,079
Speaker 2: and he was much more selective about when he was

338
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:40,960
Speaker 2: using the four seamers, the two seamers. He was just

339
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,200
Speaker 2: dotting him everywhere he wanted to stay in ninety eight.

340
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 2: It was a fucking great stars one of the best

341
00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 2: starts I've seen from a Mets pitcher in.

342
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 1: A while years.

343
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, a year and a half.

344
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was he was amped, he was animated. I

345
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:53,920
Speaker 1: feel like the Mets have been playing with a little

346
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 1: more emotion too recently, and I love to see that

347
00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 1: because this team needs a little bit of a chip

348
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 1: on their shoulder, something that they'd been like dearly and

349
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,559
Speaker 1: Alvarez being back in Lindor hitting home runs and running

350
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 1: around the bass screaming and pumping his fist, like, I

351
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:08,120
Speaker 1: love seeing all that stuff. When Severno got that strikeout

352
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,320
Speaker 1: and he went absolutely ballistic to end the ending, that

353
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 1: was phenomenal. Also, did you, I don't know again if

354
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:14,320
Speaker 1: you were watching the game on TV or not, but

355
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 1: they were talking about on ESPN how Jeremy Hefner. They

356
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 1: were talking to him about Severino and how Severino I

357
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:23,960
Speaker 1: think had three strikeouts in his last three starts combined

358
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 1: whatever it was like, it hadn't been great, and hefter's like,

359
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 1: we need him to get more strikeouts. We like pitching

360
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 1: in contact, we like ground balls, but we like strikeouts better.

361
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 1: We need him to get strikeouts. And what do you know,

362
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 1: he had the best start of his of his season probably.

363
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 2: Right and that's a two seamer four seamer thing, especially

364
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 2: with the sweepers for Severno, because we've talked about that,

365
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 2: he's leaned on that two seamer sinker this year because

366
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 2: it just has lost some actions to los some life

367
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 2: on that four seam fastball, which happens with age and

368
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:50,080
Speaker 2: the injuries that Louis Severnez delt with, and just maybe

369
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 2: there was a way that he was pitching really trying

370
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 2: to get that four seamer back to where what he

371
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 2: wanted to be the last few years that maybe possibly

372
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 2: like correlation causation, trying to find reasons for things possible

373
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 2: because of leed to all these injuries that he's dealt with.

374
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 2: So leaning on that pitch, he never threw more ten

375
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:04,960
Speaker 2: percent of the time. Heading into this year, he was

376
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,040
Speaker 2: his primary pitch, but now in this game he pushed

377
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:10,200
Speaker 2: it back for more fastballs and more sweepers again, especially

378
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 2: in two strike counts with those sweepers and mixed in

379
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 2: just enough change ups to keep it as honest with you,

380
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 2: thank you. Through about ten of them and they were

381
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 2: almost all in two strike counts. Just nice to see

382
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 2: him mix it up. As cool that Hefner said that

383
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:21,080
Speaker 2: because it Gria Frans a lot of things that we've

384
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 2: been thinking and saying. But yeah, sadly I would still

385
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 2: trade him.

386
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:26,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, Baltimore Oritals all day, they need them.

387
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 2: But again, credit to us for believing Louis Severino and

388
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 2: telling you guys, telling the world that this was going

389
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 2: to be something pretty legit. The second happened, I was like,

390
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 2: this is good and it feels good.

391
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 1: You know, it is great, And do we want to

392
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 1: have a little bit of a trade deadline discussion right now?

393
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 1: I know you talked about Severino and the mic Puma

394
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 1: tweet about trading the pictures. That's the right, that's the

395
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 1: right move, right, it's the right play in my head, Like,

396
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 1: you can't really trade Pete and JD. If you're trying

397
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,120
Speaker 1: to pretend like you're competing for a playoff spot. You

398
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,000
Speaker 1: have to figure out what the value is that you

399
00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 1: would get back for those guys as well, and if

400
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:00,400
Speaker 1: it's worth it. And I know the Mets be running

401
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 1: all those data and calculations and whatever they're doing behind

402
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 1: the scenes. David Seerns, we trust in our king, But

403
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 1: the pictures, I think there's almost not a single one,

404
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 1: like outside of like kote Ice Sango and Christian Scott,

405
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 1: like don't be stupid, but the Manias, the Kintanas, the Severinos.

406
00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 1: Someone wants out of you know, someone wants Drew Smith,

407
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 1: someone wants whoever it is. You probably just got to

408
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 1: move anybody who's anyone.

409
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,400
Speaker 2: You probably do it. I get every every time one

410
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 2: of these little tiny things leaks out. It gives me

411
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 2: a lot more confidence than David Stearns. I've always had

412
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 2: tons of confidence of serans, you guys know, But it

413
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 2: just seems like all the process, all the like the

414
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 2: central decision making abilities all seem to be pretty in check.

415
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:38,560
Speaker 2: Can you say this now until he trades pi Alonzo

416
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 2: August first, But until then, like everything that's coming out,

417
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 2: everything that trickles out, everything that we see is nice

418
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 2: and that's that's all good stuff.

419
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, Things that I like to hear, things that I go, oh,

420
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 1: I agree with you, David Stearns, maybe that's also a problem.

421
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:53,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe that's been We should be in the same

422
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 2: page before we get into more of the stuff just

423
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 2: from the series and the team, the trade deadline stuff.

424
00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,040
Speaker 2: I just want to talk about Sturday brieflycause Tyler mcgillik

425
00:16:59,160 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 2: very bad.

426
00:16:59,640 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 1: Yep.

427
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:01,360
Speaker 2: Had most of the mess tow the ray of the

428
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 2: coil on him.

429
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:02,200
Speaker 1: Again.

430
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:04,159
Speaker 2: It's something that has happened to mcgil a lot in

431
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,880
Speaker 2: his career that it just seems to really determine whether

432
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:08,440
Speaker 2: or not he's going to be good. That the fastball's

433
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:11,240
Speaker 2: loss he dipped down again, yep. Him throwing ninety four

434
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:12,639
Speaker 2: and a half miles an hour vers ninety five and

435
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,040
Speaker 2: a half miles an hour, it just makes him a

436
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 2: totally different picture. People swinging miss less the fastball is

437
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:17,960
Speaker 2: les ef fact, especially because his leans on is so

438
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,920
Speaker 2: much and he also I alluded to before, the color

439
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 2: has been really important for McGill as he's like kind

440
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 2: of been rejuvenating himself in the last month. He threw

441
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 2: six colors in the first inning, a few of them

442
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:28,760
Speaker 2: got hit, a few of them miss badly. He didn't

443
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:30,320
Speaker 2: throw one more the rest of the game. Took him

444
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,119
Speaker 2: totally out of the repertoire, opted for curve balls. It

445
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:35,200
Speaker 2: worked enough, I guess didn't really work if the Mets

446
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,440
Speaker 2: just kind of got crushed and we have the birth

447
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 2: of a new met killer officially after the series.

448
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 1: Yes, you know who it is, Christopher Morrell.

449
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:43,639
Speaker 2: What the fuck is with this guy? Against the Mets?

450
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:47,000
Speaker 1: He was like dead, he's he's he's basically been dead

451
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 1: all year, but against the Mets since fifteenth. Yeah, against

452
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 1: the Mets, plays like an all star every.

453
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 2: Single time, every single time. Pulling it up right now.

454
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 2: I think it was his last ten games against the Mets.

455
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,639
Speaker 2: He has five home runs. Yeah, which is he's stupid

456
00:17:57,680 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 2: as hell.

457
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,919
Speaker 1: He's he's a Met killer. There's no doubt about it.

458
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:04,960
Speaker 1: I don't shoot. Is this just because we're Mets fans,

459
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 1: we're masochists that we know who the Mets killers are?

460
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:10,119
Speaker 1: Like who kills the other teams that we have? I

461
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:11,760
Speaker 1: know we have good players, but I don't like, do

462
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 1: people go, oh man, Harrison Bader is really a Cubs

463
00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,359
Speaker 1: killer because he had two doubles. Stay down the line, like,

464
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 1: I don't know.

465
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:19,919
Speaker 2: I was watching the Tigers White Sox game today for

466
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:24,960
Speaker 2: work and the Tigers announcers were like Nicki Lopez always

467
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:28,760
Speaker 2: seemed to do something against US hits an RBI. It's

468
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 2: a nine to nothing game, he drove home a run,

469
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,600
Speaker 2: and they were like, Nicky Lopez, real Tiger's killer. But yeah,

470
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:36,880
Speaker 2: Christopher morel So in his career, he as the most

471
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:38,679
Speaker 2: home runs against any team against the Mets.

472
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 1: That's and he's played what eleven games.

473
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 2: Tonight was his nineteen eighty six home runs.

474
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:44,240
Speaker 1: That's a lot of games he's played against the Mets.

475
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:45,120
Speaker 1: I didn't realize that many.

476
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, thirty three games against the Reds, he has five,

477
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:49,480
Speaker 2: twenty eight games against the Brewers, he has five and

478
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:51,400
Speaker 2: twelve games against the Phillies he has five. So maybe

479
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:52,359
Speaker 2: he's an NL's killer.

480
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:54,440
Speaker 1: Maybe he was a good ballplayer.

481
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,240
Speaker 2: I still like him a lot, but he he was

482
00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 2: so good in April and he is making great swing

483
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 2: decisions and all just stopped excited that he was too good.

484
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,360
Speaker 1: That it ended he was focused too much on making

485
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:05,880
Speaker 1: the whiskers.

486
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,639
Speaker 2: Peter Alonzo from Morale, maybe it's still on the table.

487
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:11,200
Speaker 1: He just stop.

488
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,480
Speaker 2: Now jump around his mother Just fun metshit from this

489
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 2: series that I want to talk about, Uh Stocking Mark

490
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:19,840
Speaker 2: take I hurt. He literally ran to chase one fly

491
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,159
Speaker 2: ball and immediately left the game with with Nie sore oness.

492
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 1: Well, he also had that that at bat earlier in

493
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 1: the game where he grounded out and didn't run it

494
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:30,000
Speaker 1: out at all, and uh Ron and Moonface were talking

495
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 1: about how like they were kind of hinting the entire time, like, oh,

496
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:34,679
Speaker 1: he's not really hustling, and he hasn't really hustled all

497
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:36,840
Speaker 1: year long. But if you watch the replay of the swing,

498
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:38,919
Speaker 1: and obviously we now know there is something going on

499
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,119
Speaker 1: with his knees, it's a little bit funky, and you

500
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 1: could see when he made that swing he kind of

501
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:44,360
Speaker 1: like took a step, was like, oh, don't love that.

502
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:45,639
Speaker 1: Don't love that, started limping.

503
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,040
Speaker 2: Just talk about briefly, the Moonface is rough on the call.

504
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,960
Speaker 1: Didn't didn't didn't watch his call, So I have no idea.

505
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:54,960
Speaker 2: Play by a play. It's like I know that I

506
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 2: know Andy's really putting him in spots. I think he

507
00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 2: might be being groomed to be a future play by

508
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,200
Speaker 2: play guy. That would be an all time bad be

509
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 2: because he again he has he has gotten better than

510
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 2: when he first started doing it. But it's just like he.

511
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 1: I'm sure it's a reps thing. You just need reps.

512
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,399
Speaker 2: It's also very hard, I think, to be when you

513
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,480
Speaker 2: come as a sideline reporter. I think Steve objectively as

514
00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:17,680
Speaker 2: well and his sideline report. It's just, you know, we

515
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:21,879
Speaker 2: just not the biggest fans. It's not those aren't like

516
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 2: the same thing. Those aren't like transferable skills to be

517
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 2: a sideline report. They're doing journalists and telling stories, connecting

518
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,320
Speaker 2: with fans and players, and then speaking the entire game.

519
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:30,119
Speaker 2: It's so different.

520
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 1: Like Kevin Burkhart's built different. That's why he gets to

521
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,159
Speaker 1: the super Bowl. Yeah, he's the man we love Kevin Burkhart.

522
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 1: Gelb has gotten better, for sure. I'm sure he will

523
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:39,479
Speaker 1: get better. Has to do it more and more. But

524
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,040
Speaker 1: it's also an impossible task when Gary Cohen is the

525
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 1: play by play and then you're asked to fill in.

526
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:46,360
Speaker 1: We're just gonna hate your play by play Automatically. He'll

527
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 1: be better than Michael Kay though in no time, because

528
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:49,280
Speaker 1: that guy is talentless.

529
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, but there's also very different skills by Michael Okay,

530
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:55,240
Speaker 2: I think Michael Kay's good on the radio and he's great,

531
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,160
Speaker 2: not the same things. Also, it keeps happening year after

532
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 2: year after year. For some reason, Ay and Howie take

533
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 2: the same weekends off.

534
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:05,080
Speaker 1: Yes, well oh oh, because I was gonna say the

535
00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:07,640
Speaker 1: TV one because there's two national TV games this week.

536
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 2: Yes, but why Saturday s y? I still carry the

537
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:10,920
Speaker 2: Saturday game.

538
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:12,680
Speaker 1: But I'm sure Gary's like, I'm not going to Chicago

539
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,399
Speaker 1: for for one game or whatever it was gonna be.

540
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:17,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, I probably just get to get the weekend off.

541
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:19,399
Speaker 2: How we to and Uh, next thing I want to

542
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:21,960
Speaker 2: talk about is it's really close to the time we

543
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:23,400
Speaker 2: probably have to jeffmcnil' discussion.

544
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:25,679
Speaker 1: So close I know I don't want to do it.

545
00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,119
Speaker 2: Jose Glaciers seems to like not only be taking like

546
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 2: a playing advantage over Jeff McNeil. We had four hits

547
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:33,439
Speaker 2: in the game on Friday, it was four or four

548
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,040
Speaker 2: some point to get through RBIs. It's also becoming like

549
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 2: a vibes thing for Jose Glacis or.

550
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 1: His cultivator of vibes.

551
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,360
Speaker 2: He the team fucking loves him. They ride for this guy.

552
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:45,320
Speaker 2: That a song that's gonna come out later this summer,

553
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 2: all very excited for Pins and Needles. It's a it's

554
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 2: the growling cry apparently played after wins in the dugout and.

555
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:52,680
Speaker 1: After the home runs in the city field.

556
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 2: Now they play it, yeah, and he's like coming to

557
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,400
Speaker 2: the mound for the mountain visinits with Lindor, Like when

558
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:00,919
Speaker 2: the sticky stuff thing was happening with Edwin on Saturday Sunday.

559
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 2: He was the first guy in the scrum, like with

560
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 2: the umpires and Edwind like defending him. It's just everything

561
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:07,439
Speaker 2: seems to be a little bit better. Jose glace out

562
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:10,239
Speaker 2: there and Jeff McNeil's just hard to say how or

563
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,359
Speaker 2: why he should he should be playing, like for the

564
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,080
Speaker 2: last month. Do you want to hear Jeff mcneil' stats

565
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:15,960
Speaker 2: for his last thirty games?

566
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:18,080
Speaker 1: No, I don't want to hear them. Do you actually

567
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:19,640
Speaker 1: not want to hear him? I'm gonna say you say

568
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 1: it for the podcast. I'll take out my headphones, all right.

569
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,200
Speaker 2: Take that. Mark doesn't want to hear these. Jeff McGill

570
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:27,960
Speaker 2: slash line is last thirty games is one eight six,

571
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,959
Speaker 2: two thirty one, two ninety four with two home runs.

572
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,639
Speaker 2: That's an alrbis that's it. That's a month of baseball.

573
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:37,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna guess that you're done. Yeah, you're gonna guess.

574
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 1: I think I could read your lips though, Uh, one.

575
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 2: Eighty six to that catch, Yeah, one eighty six is

576
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,720
Speaker 2: the first one that's tough.

577
00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:48,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, Jeff is. I love Jeff, He's a friend of

578
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:50,199
Speaker 1: the pod, But man, he's playing about as bad as

579
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 1: anyone and has ever played.

580
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:54,960
Speaker 2: It's it's it's shocking how bad he's been, and it's

581
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:58,480
Speaker 2: is worse when the vibes are better with the backup.

582
00:22:58,720 --> 00:22:58,880
Speaker 1: Yeah.

583
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:02,960
Speaker 2: That also makes me think a tiny bit why maybe

584
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:06,440
Speaker 2: Jose Glaciers kind of wrongfully did not make this team

585
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 2: at spring training and they had Wendyl and Zach short

586
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:10,800
Speaker 2: over him because maybe they were like.

587
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:13,199
Speaker 1: He's got too many vibes.

588
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:15,280
Speaker 2: No, it's just Jeff. This has to be Jeff. We

589
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:16,800
Speaker 2: have to give Jeff every single chance. He has the

590
00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:19,280
Speaker 2: multi year contract he was backing JB two years ago. Like,

591
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 2: we're going to the season with jeffcnil. We're gonnaive him

592
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,119
Speaker 2: every opportunity to do this. You and now, like they

593
00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,120
Speaker 2: might have seen the way that Iglaciers was, they were

594
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:26,800
Speaker 2: just like, he's gonna hang there. He's gonna stay there,

595
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 2: and we're gonna have him when we need him. I

596
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:29,600
Speaker 2: guess even though there were there was rumors that he

597
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 2: was gonna leave the organization and when he got sent down.

598
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:37,640
Speaker 1: But it's rough, dude, I hate this conversation so much.

599
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:40,680
Speaker 1: You can't cut McNeil though, right, you can't dfa him,

600
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 1: and you will you.

601
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:48,359
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna say you can't. Because Steve cohen's eating

602
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,639
Speaker 2: more money than with Jeff McNeil's owed. I think he's owed.

603
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,200
Speaker 2: He's about three years twelve millions. I think he's thirty

604
00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 2: six million. So I think when Robinson Cano went down,

605
00:23:56,600 --> 00:24:01,159
Speaker 2: it was like fifty million, okay, and mccam was like

606
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:05,159
Speaker 2: twenty five million, So it's not that bad. But I

607
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,160
Speaker 2: don't know, like maybe just there has to be a discussion.

608
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 2: But especially like next year when Rodyan Reesia comes back,

609
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:11,879
Speaker 2: I think he is probably gonna be Pensylvan in the

610
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 2: every day second basement. Yeah, So then I think it

611
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,520
Speaker 2: just becomes Jeff McNeil winds up a super utility. It's

612
00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:17,800
Speaker 2: kind of like what the Yanks are doing with Taja

613
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:20,399
Speaker 2: on the Mayhew, where it's like we're not planning for

614
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:21,760
Speaker 2: you to play a lot, but you're gonna wind up

615
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:23,439
Speaker 2: playing because that's how baseball works. And guys get hurt

616
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 2: and like, you're gonna have to just be more ristile.

617
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 2: You're gonna have to play second when we need you.

618
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 2: We're gonna play the outfit when we need you. You're

619
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 2: gonna maybe have a pinch hit appearance against Righty's and

620
00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 2: if you play enough to get your spot back, you

621
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:34,400
Speaker 2: can have your spot back. But it's just he becomes

622
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 2: the he becomes Jose Glecias next year, which is crazy

623
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:39,919
Speaker 2: to say, Yeah, he.

624
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:43,160
Speaker 1: Needs you playing well, Jeff, Although I really do think

625
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:44,800
Speaker 1: that it comes down to that weird injury that we

626
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 1: know happened during spring training with the with the elbow

627
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:49,400
Speaker 1: thing for him. That's why I feel like the balls

628
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,320
Speaker 1: are really having no coming off his bat. But he's

629
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 1: still hitting the ball in the air way too much

630
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:54,160
Speaker 1: and just not making good contact.

631
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:56,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, just not at all. Someone else who is making

632
00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:58,840
Speaker 2: great contact. And I really want to talk about Mark

633
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:02,280
Speaker 2: fucking Biento's he's dog fucking holy hell. Oh he's a dog.

634
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 2: It's crazy, he he is a dog. I think the

635
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 2: dogness might be was making him good because he just

636
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,200
Speaker 2: he seemed like he had such a mission right now

637
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,120
Speaker 2: to be this team's stair basement and the two things

638
00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:15,040
Speaker 2: that we said with the things that Fiento's just had

639
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:16,960
Speaker 2: to be able to do if he was going to

640
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,800
Speaker 2: stick and actually be major league regular was the defense

641
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:21,680
Speaker 2: had to be acceptable and he had to just find

642
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:23,399
Speaker 2: ways to get on base more because the power is

643
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 2: always going to be there when he connects, and his

644
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 2: walks are His walker has doubled this year. The defense

645
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:31,040
Speaker 2: is totally fine and the power is so fucking legit.

646
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 2: Four hundred and fifty one foot home run Sunday, and

647
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:35,639
Speaker 2: I hit the top of the batters on Wrigglefield. I've

648
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:37,159
Speaker 2: never seen a home run there in Wriggleyfield.

649
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 1: That ball was different sounding off of his bat. That's

650
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 1: like the noise that like I've heard from like John

651
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 1: Carlos Stinton or an O'Neal cruise where I'm like, oh,

652
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:49,840
Speaker 1: that ball's hit different, not any not just anybody can

653
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:53,080
Speaker 1: do that. And he smoked it. He crushed it. He's

654
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,520
Speaker 1: looking so confident at the plate in the field, he's

655
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:58,160
Speaker 1: like you said, he's fine, a little bit rough, still

656
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:00,200
Speaker 1: still still kind of learning, I think, how to play

657
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:01,359
Speaker 1: the position at a high level.

658
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:03,359
Speaker 2: When did you make a bead? There was he made

659
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:05,480
Speaker 2: that bad the Rangers nightthenning, Yeah.

660
00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:07,119
Speaker 1: Rangers night inning. But then he also had the U

661
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,120
Speaker 1: the chopper that he went back on and he had

662
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:11,760
Speaker 1: to charge it instead of going back and he just

663
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:13,840
Speaker 1: couldn't make a strong throw to get him out. But

664
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,120
Speaker 1: when he's hitting like he's hitting, I actually don't give

665
00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:17,879
Speaker 1: a shit how he plays at third base. I was

666
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,920
Speaker 1: gonna mash and be so incredibly valuable to this team,

667
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,639
Speaker 1: which he has been and we always been Brett big,

668
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 1: Brett baty guys. But he's not getting a shot if

669
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,359
Speaker 1: keeping this up, it doesn't matter if we think Brett

670
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,200
Speaker 1: Baby's good, Vianda will be better.

671
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:33,720
Speaker 2: No, he's not even close. And one of the other

672
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:36,240
Speaker 2: key things that Vanta's has done this year really really

673
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,360
Speaker 2: relevant and really important to his actually becoming a major

674
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,439
Speaker 2: league regular because he's still like on that line between

675
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 2: like JD. Davis to someone who actually gets like Breeze Hoskins.

676
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:45,680
Speaker 2: Like he's between those two guys right now. I think

677
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 2: that's I like relevant, right that's kind of the range.

678
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:50,480
Speaker 2: I feels like the range's pretty good, and he plays

679
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 2: third basic I think ree Hoskins will play the third base.

680
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:54,800
Speaker 2: I mean we might have first baseman next year. So

681
00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:59,159
Speaker 2: it's gonna ben opportunity for him. But what Fianta's doing

682
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 2: right now play disipline wise, is really special and I

683
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,879
Speaker 2: use a Robert the Orr baseball perspectives right shoutow and

684
00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 2: show a lot. He has a really cool app online

685
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:08,720
Speaker 2: for his for his stat that he came up with Seeger,

686
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,439
Speaker 2: where you can have every single Hithers percentiles for Seger.

687
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,400
Speaker 2: Seeger is an acronym for swing decisions, basically how much

688
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,639
Speaker 2: you're swinging at pitches inside the strike zone and how

689
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 2: much you're laying off pitches outside the strike zone, like

690
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:21,200
Speaker 2: whether or not you're being selectively aggressive enough in the

691
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:25,080
Speaker 2: right spots. And Fiento's last year was near the bottom

692
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:27,199
Speaker 2: of the league and seeker bomb twenty five percent. This

693
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:29,480
Speaker 2: year so far, he's in the eighty eight percent tile.

694
00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:32,120
Speaker 2: So he's jumped all the way up from being someone

695
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:34,800
Speaker 2: who makes objectively very bad swing decision who objectively incredibly

696
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:37,159
Speaker 2: bigot swing decision right, and his swing decisions and his

697
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:39,600
Speaker 2: powers are right now are in the same line as

698
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:41,480
Speaker 2: the guy that we really wanted to seem to sign

699
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,000
Speaker 2: going into the off season, jorgees Hlaire, where he's hitting

700
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:45,440
Speaker 2: the piss out of the ball, and he's swinging a

701
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,119
Speaker 2: lot in the zone, and it's also born now a

702
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 2: lot with just Fiando's basic played disimal stats. He's swinging

703
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:51,960
Speaker 2: more pitches in his zone, he's making more contact in

704
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:54,560
Speaker 2: his zone, and his run value is positive in the shadow,

705
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:57,040
Speaker 2: which means he's laying off those pitches and getting to

706
00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:59,080
Speaker 2: the pitches in the middle where he's gonna hit. And

707
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,159
Speaker 2: the pitch he hit on Sunday, did you catch that

708
00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 2: pitch that he hit four to fifty one feet?

709
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:03,640
Speaker 1: No? What was it?

710
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:07,680
Speaker 2: I think, and this is high praise. I think subjectively,

711
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:09,280
Speaker 2: the worst pitch has ever been throwing a Major League

712
00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:13,920
Speaker 2: baseball game. Tyson Miller met legend he threw in eighty

713
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 2: eight that's the same in eighty eight mile narrow fastball

714
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:21,680
Speaker 2: down the Dick Bell tie. I took the freeze frame

715
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 2: and like tweeted and like a guy from baseball perspectives,

716
00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:26,119
Speaker 2: actually stolen, which is crazy that they always get so

717
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:27,720
Speaker 2: Bud heard of the bad things being stolen, and then

718
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:31,400
Speaker 2: they stole the picture. I boasted, but Grant sholock Grant

719
00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 2: and shot Grant like people said, everyone on the internet

720
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,080
Speaker 2: steals things. It's just how it works. But it was

721
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:38,680
Speaker 2: eighty eight. Bang right there, that was it.

722
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 1: I want to talk about someone else. Biantos is great,

723
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,760
Speaker 1: you know it's also great too. Tell me Francisco Alvarez

724
00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 1: El troll dude, he's so awesome.

725
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:50,520
Speaker 2: Okay again you missed it. Sunday Night Baseball, h EDWARDA.

726
00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 1: Perez was doing like a naming a player and like

727
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,160
Speaker 1: saying something about him. So he said, Jad Martinez, he goes,

728
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:58,320
Speaker 1: best hitter I ever seen. He'd like Mark Jens is

729
00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:00,760
Speaker 1: like my boy, and then he's like Francisco Alvarez. He goes,

730
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 1: I got it right here, the best. I was like,

731
00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:07,160
Speaker 1: I love this guy like his his energy is so

732
00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:10,080
Speaker 1: infectious and it's clearly played out with this team Again,

733
00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 1: more and more praise coming from everybody this week about

734
00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:16,120
Speaker 1: how awesome Francisco Alvarez is. And the thing that I

735
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 1: love the most about him not the fact that he

736
00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:20,120
Speaker 1: mashes baseballs and he he's starting to hit for some

737
00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 1: power and he's starting to get those extra bass hits now,

738
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 1: which that's what makes him really really scary, but how

739
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:28,840
Speaker 1: he handles the pitchers game by game, pitch by pitch

740
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 1: is awesome. There was a where was I think Severino

741
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 1: threw a slider at one point that talk about this,

742
00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:38,479
Speaker 1: oh is At the same time, he threw a slider

743
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 1: that Alvarez wanted more away, and I think the guy

744
00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:42,720
Speaker 1: fouled it off and he kind of got pissed at

745
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 1: music throw it away, like he gave him like one

746
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 1: of these like away out and then Severino hit it

747
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 1: and he looked at him, He's.

748
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:50,040
Speaker 2: Like, that's the pitch I wanted, Armstrong.

749
00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 1: I think, no, no, it was a right idea. I

750
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 1: was a ride out on this part. But then he

751
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:55,239
Speaker 1: did throw into Pi Karl Armstrong. It was good how

752
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,000
Speaker 1: Rez came out. He was like screaming out, like that's

753
00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 1: my fucking pitch. I love the way that he plays

754
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:01,760
Speaker 1: the game. It's infectious, it's fun. It's how big smashure

755
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:02,200
Speaker 1: we played.

756
00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:04,840
Speaker 2: There was also a moment earlier ish in this game

757
00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:07,480
Speaker 2: and wants the third or fourth inning, similar time of game,

758
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 2: where we talked about how much emotion sever you know,

759
00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:12,520
Speaker 2: was pitching with Noah's pitches with and sometimes you pitched

760
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:13,960
Speaker 2: a lot of emotion. It could be good the channel

761
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 2: appen sometimes just kind of could be back. Then you

762
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:17,600
Speaker 2: start sweezing the ball to hars So overthrowing. You don't

763
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:18,960
Speaker 2: want to do that because you want to maintain you

764
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:21,560
Speaker 2: want to maintain the mechanics. So we got a big

765
00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:25,360
Speaker 2: strikeout and he was really amped up, and Alvarez took

766
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,400
Speaker 2: a mound visit after like a really good pitch like

767
00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:31,120
Speaker 2: it before the next that bat, which that's a very

768
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 2: rare thing to see. And Pat McCarthy was gushing about

769
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 2: it over the radio. He was like, this is the

770
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:37,520
Speaker 2: difference of franciscou aalva, like his control of the game,

771
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 2: his understanding not only if his pictures pitches, but his

772
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:43,600
Speaker 2: picture's mentality. And he went out there, puts armassy, like

773
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:44,880
Speaker 2: pupped him up. He was like, that's really good, but

774
00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 2: we have to stay focused, keep going to the next

775
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 2: batter here, like I know, this is a great like

776
00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:50,040
Speaker 2: we have to do the right thing. They also want

777
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 2: to talk about for Squealver's a hitter. Yes, because finally

778
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 2: for Sisc Gualiverz, the hitter came up in a huge,

779
00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 2: huge way in this series and this whole week in general.

780
00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:00,680
Speaker 2: He kind of just went berserk and our draft fantasy

781
00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 2: league I picked him up two weeks ago and stashed

782
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:03,800
Speaker 2: him on the IL. Not sure if you know this

783
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:05,800
Speaker 2: and you played up fifty points for me this week

784
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:10,120
Speaker 2: in the game I won by twenty changed. Massive, massive, massive.

785
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:12,640
Speaker 2: But since the beginning of the Texas Series six game

786
00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:14,760
Speaker 2: hitting streak where he had three hits, three hits, one hit,

787
00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:16,800
Speaker 2: one hit, two hits, one hit over the span, he

788
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:19,440
Speaker 2: has two home runs. Over that span, he has three doubles.

789
00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:22,880
Speaker 2: Over that span, he has raised his season slash line

790
00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 2: from two seventeen two sixty three nineteen to two eighty

791
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 2: six three forty three four sixty two.

792
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:29,040
Speaker 1: It's pretty good.

793
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:32,800
Speaker 2: Two seventeen to two eighty six and six games batting

794
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,920
Speaker 2: average the ops jumping one hundred and fifty points special

795
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 2: and where the cool point in l for Alvarez because

796
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 2: he in his career, he's basically played a full season

797
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:42,960
Speaker 2: of baseball. He just fourned eighty five at bats and one

798
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:45,440
Speaker 2: hundred fifty six games played, which is more than the

799
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 2: catchers ever going to play in the season. Just as

800
00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:49,200
Speaker 2: a good way, the frame like what one full season

801
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 2: for Cisqualvraas has been like so far, twenty nine homers,

802
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:56,240
Speaker 2: eighty RBIs UH two twenty three, which is still low.

803
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,240
Speaker 2: Two ninety five four to forty three slash but still

804
00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:01,640
Speaker 2: a seven thirty eight ops for four guy that is

805
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 2: twenty two years old, playing incredible.

806
00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 1: And playing great defense and leaves the pitching staff and

807
00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:10,080
Speaker 1: ten nine homers and ady RBIs from a twenty two

808
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:12,200
Speaker 1: years catcher. It's just I mean, sign me up all

809
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,720
Speaker 1: fucking day. I love this dude so much. He's He's

810
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:16,240
Speaker 1: my next jersey, without a doubt.

811
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:17,080
Speaker 2: He's the one.

812
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:18,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's the one. I think. I think when I

813
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:21,480
Speaker 1: get the City Connect, when ever Nike decides that they're

814
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 1: going to make them normal look normal, I think we're

815
00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 1: getting Alvares.

816
00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:26,880
Speaker 2: Definitely never gonna get any of these meds City Connect jerseys.

817
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,520
Speaker 1: That's fair, But you don't. I'm a jersey collector, You're

818
00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:30,120
Speaker 1: not like that.

819
00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:32,959
Speaker 2: My last jersey I got was a Heffner. That might

820
00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:35,040
Speaker 2: be the last one for a while. That's unless I.

821
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 1: Find a really good plug on when the World Series again,

822
00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 1: a GRIMMS jersey. Fuck, No Grim is dead.

823
00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:43,120
Speaker 2: No Grim is dead. Like I think this Grimmest thing

824
00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:45,320
Speaker 2: is fun still because it's just it's become like this

825
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:47,320
Speaker 2: awesome rally and cry for this team. It's stupid. Even

826
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:49,720
Speaker 2: Pete talked about it on the broadcast. He was like, yeah,

827
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:52,120
Speaker 2: Grimas helps heat this up, and it was like, it's

828
00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:53,800
Speaker 2: just funny, Like you need stupid shit like that in

829
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:55,840
Speaker 2: a baseball season because baseball is so long and the

830
00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:58,680
Speaker 2: game is mostly randomly, it's mostly bullshit. Everything happens in

831
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:00,440
Speaker 2: a baseball games, You guys kind of need es and

832
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 2: your randomness and your luck will play better your away

833
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,400
Speaker 2: someone else where. Nothing random is happening and there's no

834
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:10,040
Speaker 2: luck going on. It's just pure talent, skilled beauty. Francisco Lindoor,

835
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 2: we need, we need apology forms for all the people.

836
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:14,480
Speaker 2: Oh that should be we should put down Twitter tomorrow.

837
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:16,240
Speaker 1: Oh okay, idea, okay, if.

838
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:17,440
Speaker 2: We should make that, we should find one of those

839
00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:20,880
Speaker 2: patisical endoor apology forms, because this fucking guy is not

840
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:22,840
Speaker 2: just playing really good bass part right now, there is

841
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:25,600
Speaker 2: an outside chance the franciscool Indoor. And this is gonna

842
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 2: sound in sane, but like I have the stats to

843
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 2: back it up, there's an outside chance for Ciscal indoors

844
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 2: playing the best baseball he's ever played his entire career

845
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,280
Speaker 2: right now, exactly this moment, thirty years old. For the

846
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:36,240
Speaker 2: New York message. I am dead fucking serious about this,

847
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 2: Franciscal Indoor defensively, there's no like, there's no words to say.

848
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:41,440
Speaker 2: He's a wizard. He's gonna go down as one of

849
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 2: the best defensive players of this generation. Like when you

850
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:45,600
Speaker 2: think about defensive players from like the age that we've

851
00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:50,480
Speaker 2: like become adults watching baseball infielders is Lndor, It's Andrelton Simmons,

852
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:53,000
Speaker 2: It's Nolan Ranado, It's Matt Chapman. Am I forgetting any

853
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:56,520
Speaker 2: may Machado? Like? Am I forgetting another obvious shortstops? I

854
00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:58,080
Speaker 2: might be. I don't know if Dansby kind of but

855
00:33:58,120 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 2: not really falling off a little bit.

856
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,920
Speaker 1: Dansby has the great numbers, but I don't watch dans

857
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:03,840
Speaker 1: Be playing feel the same way that I did of

858
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 1: like Andrelton Simmons, both guys that played for teams that

859
00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:06,560
Speaker 1: I hated.

860
00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:10,960
Speaker 2: So there's an equal bias, equal hating bias. But for

861
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:14,000
Speaker 2: some reason, somehow, some way, the thing Francisco Indoor is

862
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:16,319
Speaker 2: doing under the hood right now is again better than

863
00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:17,879
Speaker 2: he's ever done in his career. A lot of people

864
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:20,480
Speaker 2: point their Francisco indoors two amazing seasons twenty eighteen to

865
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 2: twenty nineteen as being the times when he kind of

866
00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:24,719
Speaker 2: put himself on the map. And that's the thing that

867
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:26,239
Speaker 2: a lot of the Mets fans will point to, is like,

868
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:28,239
Speaker 2: why can't he ever be this guy again? Why can't

869
00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:30,600
Speaker 2: he ever be for the home or fifty double Francisco

870
00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:32,960
Speaker 2: Indoor again? And I understand that, like you see those numbers,

871
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:34,800
Speaker 2: that makes sense. But one of the beautiful things about

872
00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:36,759
Speaker 2: a lot of stats we have now is that they'll

873
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:38,960
Speaker 2: aggregate for the entire league and show you where you

874
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:41,279
Speaker 2: line up in the league, because in one year, forty

875
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:42,719
Speaker 2: home runs does not mean the same as for you

876
00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 2: ho runs another year. And now looking back, we know

877
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:47,040
Speaker 2: that those two years we were playing fake baseball. Yes,

878
00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:49,799
Speaker 2: those baseballs were flying out of the world, and this

879
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 2: year the baseball is not doing that. And again, while

880
00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 2: the counting numbers don't look as great, even though Forciscal

881
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:58,680
Speaker 2: Indoor again is tracking for forty doubles, thirty homers, thirty

882
00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:01,160
Speaker 2: stolen bases again, and that it'll be that'll be a

883
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 2: legendary season for him with again slash lines going up.

884
00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:05,719
Speaker 2: It's going up. I'm sure the ops gets back to

885
00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:07,759
Speaker 2: seven eighty eight hundred by the end of it all.

886
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:09,919
Speaker 2: The under the hood shit is as good it's ever

887
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:12,839
Speaker 2: been Francisco Indoor right now, his barrel rate is so

888
00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:15,280
Speaker 2: much better than it was those twenty eighteen twenty nineteen seasons.

889
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:18,200
Speaker 2: His expected wOBA is better on the same line as

890
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,040
Speaker 2: it was in those seasons. So when you aggregate for

891
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:22,280
Speaker 2: what the rest of the league is doing, WRC plus

892
00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:24,399
Speaker 2: even last year was as good as it was during

893
00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:27,080
Speaker 2: those twenty eighteen twenty nineteen seasons. That again takes everything

894
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:29,840
Speaker 2: in account for the whole league. And he's a strikeout

895
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:31,839
Speaker 2: raised back down. His walkerate is good, like the swing

896
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:34,120
Speaker 2: decisions are amazing. He just looks so in control every

897
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,440
Speaker 2: single bad he steps in the box. He's not swinging

898
00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:38,600
Speaker 2: it missing as much. It's just it's beautiful what's going

899
00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:41,759
Speaker 2: on right now. And he in a time right now

900
00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:44,200
Speaker 2: where the National League is so wide open and there's

901
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,480
Speaker 2: so many teams right next to each other, and Mookie

902
00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:48,560
Speaker 2: Best has gone down with an injury. It would be

903
00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:52,120
Speaker 2: so fucking funny for Syrancisco Indoor, who's I think six

904
00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:53,960
Speaker 2: in the National League and war and total highest Warren

905
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 2: the National League since we gave Hims standing ovations in

906
00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:58,880
Speaker 2: Aril thirteenth to vault himself into the MVP conversation. It

907
00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:02,319
Speaker 2: would be beautiful forty double thirty thirty season with a

908
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:04,640
Speaker 2: two to sixty average and eight to twenty ohps with

909
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:07,120
Speaker 2: the best defense in the league. It's super possible too.

910
00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:09,040
Speaker 1: It would be incredible. Mets fans, we need to go

911
00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:10,480
Speaker 1: out and vote for him for the All Star Game.

912
00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:12,360
Speaker 1: I'm not wanting to normally push this kind of stuff,

913
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:14,080
Speaker 1: but he's not one of the top two for the

914
00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:17,200
Speaker 1: shortstops Tray Turner, who's played what eleven games, He's one

915
00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:19,480
Speaker 1: of the top choices right now in mookie bets. Who's hurt?

916
00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:21,840
Speaker 1: Gotta vote Francisco Indoor. You don't got to vote for

917
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:23,560
Speaker 1: any other Mets. I don't care. Do whatever you want.

918
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:26,560
Speaker 1: Francisco Lindor and you know what, Francisco Alvarez in there too.

919
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:27,760
Speaker 1: Vote for the Franciscos.

920
00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:30,439
Speaker 2: Vote for the Francisco's also lasted of games from Thedor.

921
00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna say it because it's beautiful for it.

922
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:36,560
Speaker 2: Six home run, seventeen RBIs, seven stolen bases, three to

923
00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:39,799
Speaker 2: zero six three sixty five five for the a triple slash.

924
00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:40,760
Speaker 1: I love it.

925
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:41,360
Speaker 2: It's the best.

926
00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:44,400
Speaker 1: He is the best, and when he's playing well, the

927
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:46,839
Speaker 1: Mets are playing well. They keep winning baseball games, which

928
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:48,800
Speaker 1: is great. We also got some great news, Code I

929
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,480
Speaker 1: Sanga threw a live VP, the first since he got

930
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:54,239
Speaker 1: the shutdown. That's big news. I love to hear that

931
00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:55,839
Speaker 1: we're getting That means we're getting closer. It means we're

932
00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:56,840
Speaker 1: getting closer everybody.

933
00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's gonna throw another live VP this week in

934
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:01,920
Speaker 2: City Field, which is also another step. That's probably the

935
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:04,560
Speaker 2: last step if it goes well towards then actual rehabit signment,

936
00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:06,560
Speaker 2: and it probably still need the very long rehab assignment.

937
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:08,840
Speaker 2: It's probably at least three weeks from the rehab assignment,

938
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:11,439
Speaker 2: so it's still realistically you're not going to see Code

939
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:15,440
Speaker 2: saying until like July twentieth, best case scenario, which is

940
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:17,279
Speaker 2: still kind of exactly where I thought he'd be the

941
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:18,920
Speaker 2: beginning of the season. I said all Star break and

942
00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:20,399
Speaker 2: I was like, that's I'm sticking with it. We're gonna

943
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:23,319
Speaker 2: might maybe be a week after that, but him coming back,

944
00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:25,600
Speaker 2: Chris just got coming back up. We're gonna be fucking rolling.

945
00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:28,360

Speaker 2: how he did both. I'm like, how did you do both?

960
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:02,479
Speaker 2: He just said he just hit me back and grind

961
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:04,839
Speaker 2: doesn't stop. I was like, sometimes maybe you should stop

962
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,319
Speaker 2: your child. I would stop the grind for that. But yeah,

963

Speaker 2: he's he's just seasons insane person all right.

965
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:15,640
Speaker 1: Time for a little media marvel. Yeah.

966
00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:17,960
Speaker 2: Two things I want to talk about too. First, Club

967
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:20,320
Speaker 2: unveiled Ryan Samberg statue before sunning at baseball.

968
00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:20,799
Speaker 1: Cool.

969
00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:22,759
Speaker 2: He's a legendary cub. And I want to drop one

970
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,719
Speaker 2: more Williams back and might four episodes because Willie made

971
00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:27,480
Speaker 2: is the best and is a big part of that history.

972
00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:31,560
Speaker 2: He might have won the best MVP award ever. Okay,

973
00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:33,640
Speaker 2: why is that he might have won the coolest MVP ever.

974
00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:35,480
Speaker 2: I'm pulling it up right now because he had a

975
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:37,920
Speaker 2: season where he was worth I think eleven war about

976
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:40,560
Speaker 2: and I think it was the World Series year fifty four. Yeah,

977
00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:42,640
Speaker 2: the first year he came back from two years overseas,

978
00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:44,960
Speaker 2: didn't play baseball for two years, came back, hit three

979
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:48,480
Speaker 2: forty five with a ten seventy eight ops and forty homers,

980
00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:50,520
Speaker 2: won the World Series with the Giants, made the catch,

981
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:53,359
Speaker 2: he won MVP. There was nobody else in his team

982
00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 2: who was worth four war, nobody the whole cross, and

983
00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:58,279
Speaker 2: he dragged his team to the World Series. And I

984
00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 2: saw this tweet comment from Michael Sophino, friend of the Pod,

985
00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:06,160
Speaker 2: very crimogeny athletic cryther if there's claim that that's might

986
00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:10,640
Speaker 2: that's maybe the best season ever, the best MVP season,

987
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:13,880
Speaker 2: Like the actual literal most valuable player there's been in

988
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:17,000
Speaker 2: a single season on a team with fully average baseball players,

989
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:18,239
Speaker 2: he dragged them to the World Series.

990
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:19,160
Speaker 1: I understand what you're saying.

991
00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:19,239
Speaker 2: Now.

992
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:22,320
Speaker 1: I understand that if like physically because they didn't have

993
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:24,520
Speaker 1: anybody else he was so even more valuable.

994
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:28,040
Speaker 2: Yes, and funny stat they dropped in the Saturday broadcast

995
00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:29,840
Speaker 2: of This Yeraries second Willi Maye fact ups so to

996
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:31,279
Speaker 2: see how how many how many weeks can go with

997
00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:32,160
Speaker 2: one William may facts.

998
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:32,640
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm in.

999
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:36,239
Speaker 2: But he played one hundred and fifty something games in

1000
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:39,160
Speaker 2: the Cubs in his career, fifty one home runs, eleven

1001
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:43,280
Speaker 2: hundred ohps. What most home runs ever against the Chicago

1002
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,719
Speaker 2: That's gross, so disgusting. I think the Cubs used to

1003
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:49,560
Speaker 2: be in the West because Chicago used to be West

1004
00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:51,400
Speaker 2: compared to the league. And Mollie may is out there

1005
00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:53,279
Speaker 2: as well. But just the fucking goat.

1006
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:55,560
Speaker 1: The goat he is. He's definitely one of the best

1007
00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 1: of all time, if not the best. All right, what

1008
00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:00,360
Speaker 1: do we got for media? Marvel's James I I feel

1009
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:01,960
Speaker 1: like I've been out of the media world a little.

1010
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:03,720
Speaker 1: But I had a couple banger tweets this weekend.

1011
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:06,959
Speaker 2: You did accident at two I should.

1012
00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:08,880
Speaker 1: Get drunk and tweet at three o'clock in the morning

1013
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:09,680
Speaker 1: a little more often.

1014
00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:12,840
Speaker 2: Your problem with Twitter sometimes you still work in the

1015
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:15,640
Speaker 2: old Twitter vibe than the new Twitter vib. New Twitter vibe.

1016
00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:18,080
Speaker 2: You need to either have a one liner or you

1017
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:21,439
Speaker 2: need to have like a good few sentences, like real English. Yeah,

1018
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 2: you struggle with both of those. You like a run

1019
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:25,520
Speaker 2: on sentence that's like in the middle of the second

1020
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:27,560
Speaker 2: line on Twitter, those just don't play anymore, Like that's

1021
00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:29,560
Speaker 2: your shit. I understand that that's your game, but it's me.

1022
00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:32,000
Speaker 2: It doesn't work anymore. But your bangers were for bangers

1023
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:34,239
Speaker 2: because they were like simple and they made the media

1024
00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:35,680
Speaker 2: get played, which was big on your Twitter.

1025
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:37,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, in case you guys didn't know, I tweet out

1026
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:39,279
Speaker 1: three point thirty in the morning because we were all

1027
00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:42,640
Speaker 1: sitting around in the house playing cards and simple Man

1028
00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:44,279
Speaker 1: came on and I just got in my feels. I

1029
00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:47,200
Speaker 1: was like, fucking miss Jacob Degram. I missed this guy,

1030
00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:49,600
Speaker 1: and I just I went to tweet Twitter posted a

1031
00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:52,120
Speaker 1: video the guys who were at the bachelor party who

1032
00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:53,799
Speaker 1: were like followed me on Twitter and stuff sore, Like

1033
00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:56,320
Speaker 1: I saw you tweet at four am. You're a dog.

1034
00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:58,600
Speaker 1: You were just you're always thinking about the concept. I

1035
00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:02,239
Speaker 1: was like, never stops, never stops. And then that insanely

1036
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:05,280
Speaker 1: bad player that Jared Gelnick made in center field where

1037
00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:07,560
Speaker 1: he just I mean, he looked like he was drunk. Honestly,

1038
00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:09,719
Speaker 1: it looked like he wasn't aware of where he was

1039
00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:11,720
Speaker 1: where he got like spun around trying to play spinny

1040
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:13,560
Speaker 1: bat and I just tweet, what the fuck happens?

1041
00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:16,600
Speaker 2: I will say, very sorry to report this. Knew what

1042
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:19,400
Speaker 2: was gonna happen. He's a Jared Kalennick breakout this happening.

1043
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 2: They hit him lead off and he's fucking good. He

1044
00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:23,799
Speaker 2: lead off against a lefty on Sunday and he had

1045
00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:25,839
Speaker 2: a home run off of Nest Cortez and he said

1046
00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,359
Speaker 2: about three fifty and has a hit every single game since.

1047
00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:30,000
Speaker 2: The Braces play him at lead off, So he's that's

1048
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:30,279
Speaker 2: a shame.

1049
00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:32,560
Speaker 1: He's on my Dynasty Fantasy team. I picked him up

1050
00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:33,799
Speaker 1: as soon as someone caught him. I was like, I'll

1051
00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:35,120
Speaker 1: never give up on this guy.

1052
00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:36,960
Speaker 2: I mean, it's just a lot of talent there. But

1053
00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:39,719
Speaker 2: media marbles, this is this is a great one. I

1054
00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:42,840
Speaker 2: got four really good media marbles this week. One's very serious,

1055
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:45,719
Speaker 2: three are not. So I'm gonna start one not well,

1056
00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:49,239
Speaker 2: then serious and Dan we'll have some more funck. But Salakata,

1057
00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:51,719
Speaker 2: oh jeez, I'm sorry, said his name, I no one

1058
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:54,200
Speaker 2: not supposed to his names. That's fine, but one of

1059
00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:57,160
Speaker 2: the moorest members of baseball media that exists, he said

1060
00:41:57,320 --> 00:42:00,239
Speaker 2: on his radio show on Thursday. This is that He

1061
00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:01,200
Speaker 2: actually said, You're not.

1062
00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:03,160
Speaker 1: Gonna wait because I definitely didn't listen.

1063
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:07,200
Speaker 2: He of course, whoever listened. Salaka is terrible. He said

1064
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:10,440
Speaker 2: that he would rather the Mets get swept by the

1065
00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:13,560
Speaker 2: Chicago Cubs in three games if it meant they would

1066
00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:17,239
Speaker 2: then sweep the New York Yankees in two games. So

1067
00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:20,560
Speaker 2: just just some general like math lessons for Salaki. The

1068
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,400
Speaker 2: first one, first one, huge, one, big math lesson. I

1069
00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:24,960
Speaker 2: can't believe he got past second grade with this one.

1070
00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:25,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, break it down.

1071
00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:30,560
Speaker 2: Three is worth more than two. Yes, three is more

1072
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:31,279
Speaker 2: than two. Got that.

1073
00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:32,279
Speaker 1: So if you were to.

1074
00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:34,320
Speaker 2: Lose three games and to win two games, you would

1075
00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:36,440
Speaker 2: be worse off because you have lost one more game

1076
00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:38,200
Speaker 2: than you won. You can check my math on that Google.

1077
00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:39,400
Speaker 1: That's true.

1078
00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:41,880
Speaker 2: The Mets, even just by winning two of three games

1079
00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:44,360
Speaker 2: in the series against the Cubs, they jumped four teams

1080
00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:47,480
Speaker 2: the NL wildcard standings, including the Chicago Cups. So a

1081
00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:50,040
Speaker 2: team that you're directly competing with your wildcards more valuable

1082
00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:51,799
Speaker 2: to win games against them, because that means they're losing

1083
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,000
Speaker 2: the games, Sal and then you can have a better

1084
00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:55,520
Speaker 2: chance to make the playoff. He doesn't care about the

1085
00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:57,200
Speaker 2: mes making the playoffs, because he doesn't he's probably not

1086
00:42:57,200 --> 00:42:59,319
Speaker 2: even a real Mets fan. So just shout out Sala

1087
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:00,880
Speaker 2: Kyala for that one legendary.

1088
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:03,120
Speaker 1: Shit that that one's honestly broke my brain a little

1089
00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:06,040
Speaker 1: bit because it's it's so fucking stupid, like you almost

1090
00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:09,759
Speaker 1: you you almost have to be purposely stupid to do that.

1091
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:13,040
Speaker 2: I he said something, this was so dumb that usually

1092
00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:15,440
Speaker 2: I'll do the notes for the episode, like right when

1093
00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:17,720
Speaker 2: the last game ends, like half hour before we started recording,

1094
00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:19,919
Speaker 2: so I get everything as a full picture. I opened

1095
00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:22,200
Speaker 2: this Google doc on Thursday afternoon the second I heard

1096
00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:24,239
Speaker 2: that on Twitter, and I opened school doc and I

1097
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:26,480
Speaker 2: wrote media marvels like Hada would rather Mets guests wept

1098
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:30,160
Speaker 2: by Cubs if a men sweeping Yankees. That's especially I listen.

1099
00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:31,040
Speaker 2: I hate the Yankees.

1100
00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:32,719
Speaker 1: I hate the Yankees more than I should because they

1101
00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:36,439
Speaker 1: really don't matter. But that's that's brain dead. That's oh

1102
00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:39,200
Speaker 1: things you can't say things, things I'd love to say,

1103
00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:42,440
Speaker 1: but you can't can't say it, Salakata, you're an idiot.

1104
00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:44,440
Speaker 2: Big lesson three is worth more than two. And the

1105
00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:47,840
Speaker 2: next one serious media marvel. I think that Majorague Baseball

1106
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:50,200
Speaker 2: did a really good job with the Rick woods Field game.

1107
00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:52,400
Speaker 2: That's a Negro League gomage game. It was just it

1108
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:54,120
Speaker 2: was really well done. The fact that they have Barry

1109
00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:56,520
Speaker 2: Bonds in the pregame postgame show, the fact that they

1110
00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:59,920
Speaker 2: let Reggie Jackson talk his shit and give bone chilling

1111
00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:03,120
Speaker 2: like stories about the racism that he felt when he

1112
00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:05,000
Speaker 2: was a player, and just like to remind people Reggie

1113
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:06,840
Speaker 2: Jackson was a baseball player. He came up in nineteen

1114
00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:09,200
Speaker 2: sixty seven, so he was talking about things that were

1115
00:44:09,239 --> 00:44:11,520
Speaker 2: happening to him in the sixties and seventies, which is

1116
00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:14,759
Speaker 2: that country. It's not long ago all they are. If

1117
00:44:14,840 --> 00:44:17,239
Speaker 2: you guys are listening, our dads were alive and some

1118
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:18,719
Speaker 2: of our older fans you may have been alive for

1119
00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:20,759
Speaker 2: when these things are going on. So insane shit that

1120
00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:24,640
Speaker 2: that there were the A's would stay at team hotels

1121
00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:27,239
Speaker 2: and that managers owners would tell say, Reggi Jackson not

1122
00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:30,640
Speaker 2: allowed to stay there in the nineteen seventies. And if

1123
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:33,120
Speaker 2: you guys baseball. There's not a lot of teams that

1124
00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:36,040
Speaker 2: play in the South either, No, there really isn't. And

1125
00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:38,400
Speaker 2: that's a hotel Mandres Saint Red Jackson shout out Charlie Finland.

1126
00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:40,359
Speaker 2: Just I'm so deep in baseball history, but Charlie Filly

1127
00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:42,440
Speaker 2: is a major character in it. He would pull the

1128
00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:43,920
Speaker 2: team at the hotel se if Regie can't say, no

1129
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:45,279
Speaker 2: one's staying here all and they would go to the

1130
00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:47,000
Speaker 2: team restaurants. They would say Regie can't eat there, and no

1131
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:49,200
Speaker 2: one's eating there. Fuck you, And that's sick and just

1132
00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:53,080
Speaker 2: really cool and major League Baseball. Let Reggie Jackson do

1133
00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:55,120
Speaker 2: that say that, because I think this game was important

1134
00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:56,799
Speaker 2: for that. So sad that this game was in Willie

1135
00:44:56,840 --> 00:44:59,000
Speaker 2: Mays's backyard and he had passed away the day before.

1136
00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:02,640
Speaker 2: Horrible And also shout out they showed one of the oldest,

1137
00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:08,040
Speaker 2: one of the last remaining, Yes, Deleason, I believe, and

1138
00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:10,759
Speaker 2: they had the shot of his love everything he's done

1139
00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:13,040
Speaker 2: in his life where it was like playing a Negro league.

1140
00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:14,520
Speaker 2: I gotta find a tweet and find tweet right now,

1141
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:17,080
Speaker 2: keep talking about. But just really proud of major League

1142
00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:20,040
Speaker 2: Baseball for navigating something that was need to be very

1143
00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:22,880
Speaker 2: carefully done and doing a good job with it.

1144
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:25,279
Speaker 1: No, he did a really really good job. They've they've

1145
00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:27,600
Speaker 1: done a good job with a lot of these one

1146
00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:30,319
Speaker 1: off games that they've done. This one obviously means more

1147
00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:32,520
Speaker 1: than playing at the Field of Dreams or playing in

1148
00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:35,200
Speaker 1: London or playing in Mexico. This is for a different purpose.

1149
00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:37,520
Speaker 1: This isn't for the outreach for the growth of Major

1150
00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:40,480
Speaker 1: League Baseball. This is to pay respect and kind of

1151
00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:43,279
Speaker 1: just like understand, like the Negro Leagues are a major

1152
00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:45,840
Speaker 1: part of our history, not just in baseball but in America,

1153
00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:47,840
Speaker 1: and this is something that we need to celebrate because

1154
00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:49,239
Speaker 1: they got treated like shit.

1155
00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:52,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, his name is Bill Greeson, and it's just it's

1156
00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:55,640
Speaker 2: it was cool that he's he was an Alabama local.

1157
00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:57,319
Speaker 2: He was able to sit there and watch the game

1158
00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:59,480
Speaker 2: and a field that he played on, and they talk

1159
00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:01,760
Speaker 2: about him and Reggie Bole talked about like the actual

1160
00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:04,600
Speaker 2: pain and having to like come back to these sites

1161
00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:06,000
Speaker 2: to be like, we weren't allowed to play Major League

1162
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:07,480
Speaker 2: baseball and most of us were good enough to and

1163
00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:10,560
Speaker 2: that is pretty fucked all right.

1164
00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:12,840
Speaker 1: What's what's the next one here? James? Again, I was

1165
00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:14,560
Speaker 1: I was a little busy. So I'm gonna lean on

1166
00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:16,480
Speaker 1: you for media marvels and I'll be surprised on what

1167
00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:16,920
Speaker 1: you tell me.

1168
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:19,120
Speaker 2: Next one here, big one, fun one has to do

1169
00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:22,200
Speaker 2: with us. We've we've talked about Mets Marize, the Mets blog,

1170
00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:26,879
Speaker 2: big Twitter account, uh stealing our things, stealing things every

1171
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:29,160
Speaker 2: now and again, and they straight up stole one of

1172
00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:31,640
Speaker 2: our memes. It was kind of crazy. Straight up. They

1173
00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:34,520
Speaker 2: took the exact meme that I sent you during the

1174
00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:37,320
Speaker 2: Ranger series, which is you put Grimace's face on Stringer

1175
00:46:37,320 --> 00:46:39,080
Speaker 2: Bell and you say, I want you to put the

1176
00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:41,400
Speaker 2: word up, the word out that we back up, and

1177
00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:44,799
Speaker 2: they took it exactly. But what they did they double stole.

1178
00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:46,040
Speaker 2: I give them a lot of credit for the dogs

1179
00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:48,960
Speaker 2: double the single steal. So last year, if you guys

1180
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:51,719
Speaker 2: might have remembered, the Mets actually made this meme themselves

1181
00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:53,600
Speaker 2: when they thought that we were back last May, when

1182
00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:55,960
Speaker 2: really we were dogs shit the entire year. But they

1183
00:46:55,960 --> 00:46:57,560
Speaker 2: did really good photoshop because the Mets have a lot

1184
00:46:57,560 --> 00:46:59,480
Speaker 2: of towns of people work on social media where they

1185
00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:01,880
Speaker 2: put a Mets pin stripe jersey on Stringer Bell with

1186
00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:05,919
Speaker 2: a Mets hat. So Mets Marise took that picture which

1187
00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:08,239
Speaker 2: had a Mets jersey on stringer Bell in the Mets

1188
00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:11,239
Speaker 2: hat and then put a grimace on stringer bell. So

1189
00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:13,400
Speaker 2: double a double steal. So I guess if you double steal,

1190
00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:15,479
Speaker 2: you really never steal. But yeah, shoutout mesmrize for stealing

1191
00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:15,799
Speaker 2: our content.

1192
00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:18,080
Speaker 1: Yeah that's a double negative, which means it's a positive.

1193
00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:21,000
Speaker 2: Yes, totally. But yeah, I saw that at my timeline,

1194
00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:22,520
Speaker 2: like three people tagged me. I was like, I cannot

1195
00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:22,880
Speaker 2: believe this.

1196
00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:24,960
Speaker 1: Wait, this is our three hundredth episode.

1197
00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:26,440
Speaker 2: This is a three injo. I was gonna say it

1198
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:27,280
Speaker 2: at the end, but yeah.

1199
00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:29,600
Speaker 1: I didn't even know. I just saw the the outline.

1200
00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:32,120
Speaker 1: Mess up. Three hundred shout out to us, three hundred.

1201
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:34,399
Speaker 2: Shoutout us, Go spara. Me's up, three hundred Hall.

1202
00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:36,040
Speaker 1: Of Fame marcher right there, three hundred wins.

1203
00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:37,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, it could have been us. I mean, it could

1204
00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:39,520
Speaker 2: have been Tom sever in a Mets uniform if they

1205
00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:42,960
Speaker 2: didn't get rid of him. But that's a shame. Last Media, Marvel,

1206
00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:44,960
Speaker 2: Were you on Twitter a lot on Sunday?

1207
00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:48,319
Speaker 1: No, because I was. I was playing golf. Shot shot

1208
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:51,080
Speaker 1: in ninety shot forty two on the back nine, really

1209
00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:53,600
Speaker 1: good job by me props clapping it up for me

1210
00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:56,520
Speaker 1: at home. But no, I was not on Twitter, Delaware,

1211
00:47:56,880 --> 00:47:59,440
Speaker 1: not big fans of Verizon service.

1212
00:48:00,719 --> 00:48:02,920
Speaker 2: Keith Rnandez one of the crazies tweets I've ever seen

1213
00:48:02,960 --> 00:48:05,040
Speaker 2: in my life on Sunday. So it seems like Keith,

1214
00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:06,600
Speaker 2: if the Mets are on, he's not working it. He's

1215
00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:09,239
Speaker 2: just kind of unhinged. Seven thirty nine on a Sunday night.

1216
00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:11,239
Speaker 2: So as the first setting was going on between the

1217
00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:13,000
Speaker 2: second name was going on between the Mets and the Cubs,

1218
00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:16,640
Speaker 2: you're not even prepared for the about to tell you, gonna

1219
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:21,040
Speaker 2: clear my throat for this one. The paradox of tolerance

1220
00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:24,960
Speaker 2: states that if a society's practice of tolerance is inclusive

1221
00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:29,800
Speaker 2: of the tolerant, intolerance will ultimately dominate, eliminating the tolerant

1222
00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:32,560
Speaker 2: and the practice of tolerance with them.

1223
00:48:33,520 --> 00:48:33,759
Speaker 1: What.

1224
00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:37,160
Speaker 2: I think that's the most times in human society the

1225
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:40,279
Speaker 2: history of the spoken written word, that tolerance has been

1226
00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:41,960
Speaker 2: used in one sentence the record for sure.

1227
00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:45,080
Speaker 1: Now I understand again, I'm not working at full capacita

1228
00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:47,680
Speaker 1: right now? Does that mean anything? It sounded like nonsense

1229
00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:49,440
Speaker 1: to me. I don't want to be insensitive and say like,

1230
00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:51,560
Speaker 1: I don't get it, and it might be really profound,

1231
00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:52,520
Speaker 1: but I don't think it is.

1232
00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:54,439
Speaker 2: I can't figure it out. I don't know. He didn't

Speaker 1: It's gonna be hot. Are you Are you going to

1259

1260
00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:53,320
Speaker 1: in the air. The price have gone up for tickets.

1261
00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:54,160
Speaker 1: What is your thoughts?

1262
00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:56,880
Speaker 2: I'm probably not. I just I don't really want to

1263
00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:58,399
Speaker 2: spend one hundred dollars to go to a Mets game.

1264
00:49:58,600 --> 00:50:00,520
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't know. That's like got to me.

1265
00:50:00,600 --> 00:50:02,840
Speaker 2: That's where it's at. And also, just I had a

1266
00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:05,319
Speaker 2: great conversation with my guy. Was his name Keith?

1267
00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:06,080
Speaker 1: No it?

1268
00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:07,640
Speaker 2: His name was? What the hell is this guy's name?

1269
00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:09,160
Speaker 2: Met a big Mets fan at a part of the

1270
00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:12,000
Speaker 2: on Saturday in Bushwick. What the hell was his name?

1271
00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:15,560
Speaker 2: It was a weird name, Crimson, Crimson. I don't know.

1272
00:50:15,640 --> 00:50:18,239
Speaker 2: He's a churchy, short kid and he lived in this city. Now,

1273
00:50:19,200 --> 00:50:20,800
Speaker 2: what the fuck was this Clemson?

1274
00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:21,160
Speaker 1: Damn?

1275
00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:22,960
Speaker 2: What was his name? I gave my stake. Listen to

1276
00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:25,200
Speaker 2: the episode. I forgot his name. Oh, I feel bad, terrible,

1277
00:50:25,239 --> 00:50:28,399
Speaker 2: But Flamza, Now we were the metic of the fact

1278
00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:30,399
Speaker 2: that if you're a twenty game ticket holder for the Mets.

1279
00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:33,840
Speaker 2: You used to be guaranteed opening day sub Boy Series

1280
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:37,160
Speaker 2: and now you're not anymore. It sucks, but yeah, dad's

1281
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:38,759
Speaker 2: a twenty game package. We don't have a sub Boy

1282
00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:42,000
Speaker 2: Series game. It's so and Mets have gotten so lame

1283
00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:43,360
Speaker 2: to the season ticket holders is the year because they

1284
00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:44,480
Speaker 2: know they have us for life and they're trying to

1285
00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:46,879
Speaker 2: attract more fans. I get that because you have worse

1286
00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:49,400
Speaker 2: access to playoff tickets, you have less access to the

1287
00:50:49,400 --> 00:50:51,000
Speaker 2: good games the season, and you have less ability to

1288
00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:52,960
Speaker 2: transfer your tickets around the season, and the price went up,

1289
00:50:53,000 --> 00:50:55,799
Speaker 2: So fuck them for that. But yeah, probably not gonna

1290
00:50:55,800 --> 00:50:56,759
Speaker 2: be able to get to one of those, which kind

1291
00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:57,400
Speaker 2: of sucks that.

1292
00:50:57,400 --> 00:50:59,080
Speaker 1: It's a shame because Garrett Cole is gonna be on

1293
00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:00,600
Speaker 1: the mound for one of them, right yep.

1294
00:51:01,160 --> 00:51:05,359
Speaker 2: And uh, Tuesday night Garrett Cole versus David Peterson ace off.

1295
00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:09,640
Speaker 2: Wednesday Night, Sean and I versus Louise heel.

1296
00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:12,640
Speaker 1: Ace off A sounds like, sounds like a good time

1297
00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:14,640
Speaker 1: to get to City Field and watch some really good

1298
00:51:14,719 --> 00:51:15,360
Speaker 1: Mets pitchers.

1299
00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:19,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, some soft toss and lefties against some hard throwing

1300
00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:20,840
Speaker 2: right these for the Yankees, that's not for that, I.

1301
00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:22,440
Speaker 1: Don't have an extra guy in the bullpen.

1302
00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:25,280
Speaker 2: Oh my god, it's the extra guy in the bullpens.

1303
00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:27,160
Speaker 2: It's not that bad right now because we're off on Monday,

1304
00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:29,440
Speaker 2: and we're off on Thursday before come to town next weekend,

1305
00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:31,040
Speaker 2: which I do want to go to the one Astros games,

1306
00:51:31,080 --> 00:51:34,360
Speaker 2: So maybe Circle Saturday four ten for Mets Astros to

1307
00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:36,360
Speaker 2: keep that, keep that one in mind for us. Mc

1308
00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:38,200
Speaker 2: gilvers run out Bloco. So it could be some more

1309
00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:43,040
Speaker 2: sticky stuff going on. But the Yankees are awkwardly coming

1310
00:51:43,080 --> 00:51:47,320
Speaker 2: into the series Loki playing the worst baseball of the season. Yeah,

1311
00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:49,719
Speaker 2: they they dropped the series in Boston. They dropped a

1312
00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:52,719
Speaker 2: home series against the Orioles where they got fucking spanked

1313
00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:55,600
Speaker 2: in the last game of that series and they got

1314
00:51:55,840 --> 00:51:58,799
Speaker 2: bodied in the second game of that series, and kind

1315
00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:00,880
Speaker 2: of a flawed may have been uncover the bit and

1316
00:52:00,920 --> 00:52:03,120
Speaker 2: the Yankees in the Red Sox series you can kind

1317
00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:04,480
Speaker 2: of just steal on them, and the Oils made the

1318
00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:06,279
Speaker 2: joke a bad on Twitter. If you guys don't see that,

1319
00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:08,440
Speaker 2: they're like, hey, Yankees, this house done. And Adleie threw

1320
00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:10,360
Speaker 2: out as Waldo Cabrera and extra innings to win that

1321
00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:11,759
Speaker 2: game on Wednesday, I.

1322
00:52:11,719 --> 00:52:14,280
Speaker 1: Have a medium marvel. I just remembered one to interrupt

1323
00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:17,160
Speaker 1: with you. Joe Girardi was calling out Adlee Rushman saying

1324
00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:20,240
Speaker 1: he's got a bad arm, and like almost instant, almost instantly,

1325
00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:23,680
Speaker 1: made a beautiful, perfect throat again oz Walt Cabrera a's

1326
00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:26,520
Speaker 1: Waldo Cabrera out, And I was like, Wow, the timing

1327
00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:28,440
Speaker 1: of that was incredible because one, I think Adlie Rushman

1328
00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:29,520
Speaker 1: has a game, and I think he's one of the

1329
00:52:29,560 --> 00:52:32,000
Speaker 1: best monster defensive catchers in all of baseball, if not

1330
00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:35,319
Speaker 1: the best. And two the timing is just so good.

1331
00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:38,719
Speaker 1: Joe Girardi, bad manager, bad announcer.

1332
00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:41,360
Speaker 2: No legitimately, but the Yankee team also just dropped the

1333
00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:43,759
Speaker 2: series to the Braves, so I couldn't help.

1334
00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:45,280
Speaker 1: That was their fucking assholes.

1335
00:52:45,640 --> 00:52:48,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, top on top of the world. They h Louis

1336
00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:50,080
Speaker 2: heel Is coming into this game, also making him by

1337
00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:51,959
Speaker 2: far as worst start of the season. Got shll ACKed.

1338
00:52:52,080 --> 00:52:53,799
Speaker 2: A lot of aggression came to Louis Hill at once

1339
00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:56,719
Speaker 2: in that Thursday afternoon game against the Oriels. But the

1340
00:52:56,800 --> 00:52:59,160
Speaker 2: Yankees team is still incredible. We're missing Gihn, Carlos Stanton,

1341
00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:01,600
Speaker 2: He's taking his schedule trip to the IL at the

1342
00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:03,640
Speaker 2: same time that Jason Dominguez got hurt as well, So

1343
00:53:03,680 --> 00:53:05,759
Speaker 2: the Yankees didn't even get to use the best fourth

1344
00:53:05,760 --> 00:53:09,320
Speaker 2: outfielder in baseball. So we're gonna see a heavy dose

1345
00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:11,359
Speaker 2: of Aaron Judge of course want so though, of course,

1346
00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:14,160
Speaker 2: which is gonna be probably some Mets won solo content

1347
00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:16,480
Speaker 2: this week. I'm sure probably maybe him in Cityfield. I'm

1348
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:18,040
Speaker 2: sure they're going to try. I'mure Scott Boris in his

1349
00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:19,400
Speaker 2: ear being like, you gotta tell people how much you

1350
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:21,000
Speaker 2: love Citney Field. The guy you have to say that

1351
00:53:21,040 --> 00:53:23,760
Speaker 2: to the parent stadium to play in besides the Yankee Stadium.

1352
00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:26,320
Speaker 2: It's a messed up guarantee that that one. So was

1353
00:53:26,360 --> 00:53:28,279
Speaker 2: gonna say how much he loves City Field. Mess up

1354
00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:30,480
Speaker 2: guarantee he's gonna say this week. But we're gonna see

1355
00:53:30,480 --> 00:53:32,600
Speaker 2: Garrett Cole too, making his second start of the year.

1356
00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:35,920
Speaker 2: He was not great against the Orools, which is partially

1357
00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:38,080
Speaker 2: probably because he was facing the Oriols, but also partially

1358
00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:40,080
Speaker 2: because it seems like the Yankees just wanted him back

1359
00:53:40,160 --> 00:53:41,600
Speaker 2: rather than just like waste some of these endings to

1360
00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:43,640
Speaker 2: the minors. His fastball is only sitting in ninety four

1361
00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:45,839
Speaker 2: ninety five, which is low for coal, and he's throwing

1362
00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:48,520
Speaker 2: in a lot of colors, almost thirty percent colors in debut.

1363
00:53:48,640 --> 00:53:51,480
Speaker 2: So maybe maybe that's just a switch's maker, maybe just

1364
00:53:51,520 --> 00:53:54,319
Speaker 2: knows the fastball isn't there yet. But velast he's usually

1365
00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:56,880
Speaker 2: kind of stable when you come back from the UCL injury,

1366
00:53:56,920 --> 00:53:58,680
Speaker 2: and the fact that it's this low that might just

1367
00:53:58,719 --> 00:53:59,960
Speaker 2: be the way he has to pitch this year, which

1368
00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:02,200
Speaker 2: could be major bad news for him and the Yanks

1369
00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:05,719
Speaker 2: doesn't feel like good news at least, nah, I mean

1370
00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:07,160
Speaker 2: other stuff abut the Yankees. I don't know, guys, in

1371
00:54:07,160 --> 00:54:07,640
Speaker 2: the fucking.

1372
00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:10,000
Speaker 1: Aaron Judge is really good. He's the best player in baseball.

1373
00:54:10,080 --> 00:54:13,600
Speaker 1: Wan Soda is the second best player in baseball. Uh yeah,

1374
00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:15,880
Speaker 1: I mean John Carlo were missing him. He's not playing

1375
00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:17,919
Speaker 1: obviously because the injury. I have a tweet to tell

1376
00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:22,280
Speaker 1: you about afterwards about John Carlos Stanton Dugos Yes paple

1377
00:54:22,320 --> 00:54:26,480
Speaker 1: Bond's tweet. How awesome was that tweet? So in case

1378
00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:29,200
Speaker 1: you guys didn't know, John Carlston, I L Jonathan paple

1379
00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:32,160
Speaker 1: Bond tweets. Finally, Stanton goes to the I L. This

1380
00:54:32,239 --> 00:54:34,400
Speaker 1: is what my under in his home run total for

1381
00:54:34,440 --> 00:54:36,480
Speaker 1: the year. Needed I knew he couldn't go all year

1382
00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:39,160
Speaker 1: without landing on the il. Is this eight to nine

1383
00:54:39,239 --> 00:54:41,000
Speaker 1: years in a row? Take your time, Mike, I mean

1384
00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:44,160
Speaker 1: John Carlos. John Carlos, don't need to rush back.

1385
00:54:44,719 --> 00:54:47,239
Speaker 2: Geez, that's like that's like wait, like two disrespectful even

1386
00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:48,080
Speaker 2: give them that much credit for it.

1387
00:54:48,719 --> 00:54:51,080
Speaker 1: But yeah, the outside of those guys though, the team

1388
00:54:51,160 --> 00:54:52,839
Speaker 1: doesn't really hit that much.

1389
00:54:53,520 --> 00:54:55,839
Speaker 2: No, I said, those guys Laboratories have a very bad year.

1390
00:54:55,880 --> 00:54:57,560
Speaker 2: He seems to be doing the Pilanzo thing where he

1391
00:54:57,600 --> 00:55:00,480
Speaker 2: just seems so nervous in his contract here. Queez, really

1392
00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:02,520
Speaker 2: tight from laboratory. It's really disappointing. See someone I had

1393
00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:03,840
Speaker 2: high hopes for going into the year has been just

1394
00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:07,319
Speaker 2: really good for the last few years. But hard talk

1395
00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:08,960
Speaker 2: about the Yankee rotation has kind of been with held

1396
00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:10,200
Speaker 2: them up this year. But we don't really have talk

1397
00:55:10,200 --> 00:55:12,120
Speaker 2: about them because we're only seeing Heill and Cole and

1398
00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:14,600
Speaker 2: He'll still been amazing, but it's just like he fills

1399
00:55:14,680 --> 00:55:17,640
Speaker 2: up this sown with lots of heavy, heavy fastball, high heat,

1400
00:55:17,719 --> 00:55:20,279
Speaker 2: and then sliders come off them a smathering of change ups.

1401
00:55:20,760 --> 00:55:22,520
Speaker 2: I don't think Clay Holmes gets enough respect for being

1402
00:55:22,520 --> 00:55:23,360
Speaker 2: a really good closer.

1403
00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:24,200
Speaker 1: You do love him.

1404
00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:25,880
Speaker 2: I like he's just he's an awesome pitcher, and the

1405
00:55:25,960 --> 00:55:27,960
Speaker 2: rest of the Yankee bullpen has been really good. Ian Hamilton,

1406
00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:29,600
Speaker 2: one of my favorites, has not been great this year.

1407
00:55:29,600 --> 00:55:33,120
Speaker 2: He's going. Yes, Michael Tonkin has been amazing since the

1408
00:55:33,160 --> 00:55:33,959
Speaker 2: Yankees got him.

1409
00:55:33,840 --> 00:55:37,480
Speaker 1: Which one seventy and twenty five innings is ridiculous.

1410
00:55:37,680 --> 00:55:40,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, figure, and they also feel big friends up in

1411
00:55:40,120 --> 00:55:43,200
Speaker 2: that bullpen too. Right now, wait, really he got called

1412
00:55:43,360 --> 00:55:46,040
Speaker 2: weekend and this is huge too. Yankee signed another old

1413
00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:48,160
Speaker 2: friend this weekend, the Mets. Did you see that?

1414
00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:49,160
Speaker 1: Davis? J?

1415
00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:51,520
Speaker 2: Davis is the Yankees probably gonna be dhing without John

1416
00:55:51,560 --> 00:55:54,359
Speaker 2: Carlos Stanton in these games against the Mets. Also from

1417
00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:57,040
Speaker 2: prospect Ben Rice came up Yankee first. Yes, he can

1418
00:55:57,040 --> 00:56:00,200
Speaker 2: be complete discipline, amazing and some power, so he's he's

1419
00:56:00,239 --> 00:56:00,640
Speaker 2: kind of fun.

1420
00:56:00,640 --> 00:56:03,000
Speaker 1: But if the Mets had any balls, they'd give Phil

1421
00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:05,680
Speaker 1: Bickford a fucking montage. I think that'd be so funny.

1422
00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:07,680
Speaker 2: That would be hilarious. Do you think like a JD.

1423
00:56:07,800 --> 00:56:09,799
Speaker 2: Davis wants he's.

1424
00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:12,440
Speaker 1: He's surely played in the city field, right Jade.

1425
00:56:12,520 --> 00:56:16,800
Speaker 2: I guess I think he has giants, but yeah, I

1426
00:56:16,840 --> 00:56:19,000
Speaker 2: means Yankee Subway series. The Sadium always gets off for

1427
00:56:19,040 --> 00:56:21,400
Speaker 2: the Subway series. It's like a major New York pilgrimage.

1428
00:56:21,440 --> 00:56:23,319
Speaker 2: It's always just it's very fun. The groups of friends

1429
00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:25,600
Speaker 2: are there, the girlfriends and the boyfriends who are split

1430
00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:28,040
Speaker 2: Mets and Yankee fans like it's it's a great event.

1431
00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:29,279
Speaker 2: It really is. Oh, every year.

1432
00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:31,040
Speaker 1: I will be there Wednesday night. If you guys are there,

1433
00:56:31,120 --> 00:56:34,160
Speaker 1: say what's up going with Bengal. Any of you guys

1434
00:56:34,239 --> 00:56:36,279
Speaker 1: like football YouTube, you will also be at the game,

1435
00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:39,839
Speaker 1: So come say what's up to the boys. Otherwise, well,

1436
00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:41,680
Speaker 1: we got nothing else to say, right, we gotta check

1437
00:56:41,719 --> 00:56:43,319

Speaker 1: you're like, can you get to the point already?

1446
00:56:58,120 --> 00:56:59,879
Speaker 2: And also just wanted to just double double tap talking

1447
00:57:00,040 --> 00:57:02,800
Speaker 2: how great the Lance Brosdowski interview we did on Friday

1448
00:57:02,960 --> 00:57:04,919
Speaker 2: was like, he's just just such a fucking smart guy,

1449
00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:07,680
Speaker 2: and it's really cool to get these like dents and

1450
00:57:07,719 --> 00:57:10,440
Speaker 2: thorough perspectives from fans of other teams when we're playing them.

1451
00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:12,120
Speaker 2: We wanted to get a Yankee person on for this episode,

1452
00:57:12,120 --> 00:57:14,200
Speaker 2: but it's just Beside Night Baseball were recording too late

1453
00:57:14,239 --> 00:57:15,520
Speaker 2: and Mark at the bachelor party, so it didn't make

1454
00:57:15,520 --> 00:57:18,360
Speaker 2: any sense. But it's it's good, very good.

1455
00:57:19,040 --> 00:57:22,439
Speaker 1: Uh Okay reviews, I've got one great podcasting Evan from

1456
00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:25,720
Speaker 1: Philly Wow, a Philly guy five stars. I've been a

1457
00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:28,040
Speaker 1: listener and a fan of Mets Up since twenty twenty two.

1458
00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:30,800
Speaker 1: Mark and James are great podcast host in sports analysts.

1459
00:57:30,800 --> 00:57:32,920
Speaker 1: They give good info and level headed takes about the Mets,

1460
00:57:32,960 --> 00:57:35,000
Speaker 1: while also being funny and personal. Their passionate for the

1461
00:57:35,040 --> 00:57:37,840
Speaker 1: team is contagious. Love their social media content as well.

1462
00:57:37,960 --> 00:57:40,600
Speaker 1: I really resonated with that time rant when the team

1463
00:57:40,680 --> 00:57:43,440
Speaker 1: was legit hard to watch. Thursday's interview with Lance Brosdowski

1464
00:57:43,560 --> 00:57:46,160
Speaker 1: was a deep dive, but I was invested in able

1465
00:57:46,160 --> 00:57:47,840
Speaker 1: to follow along because they do such a good job.

1466
00:57:47,880 --> 00:57:49,720
Speaker 1: Thank you. Evan from Philly appreciate.

1467
00:57:49,360 --> 00:57:51,520
Speaker 2: You, and I think we have one more from Stray

1468
00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:53,080
Speaker 2: Falls from Thursday. I don't think we had this one

1469
00:57:53,160 --> 00:57:56,800
Speaker 2: last episode stumbled upon Greatness been. This is such a

1470
00:57:56,840 --> 00:57:58,880
Speaker 2: long review. Oh my god, three paragraphs. All right, let's

1471
00:57:58,880 --> 00:58:00,920
Speaker 2: tro been a big fan. The podcast is early twenty

1472
00:58:00,960 --> 00:58:02,760
Speaker 2: twenty two. I found you guys back and was searching

1473
00:58:02,760 --> 00:58:04,640
Speaker 2: for Mets content during the twenty twenty two run. I'm

1474
00:58:04,640 --> 00:58:06,520
Speaker 2: honestly super glad and now I had to show I

1475
00:58:06,560 --> 00:58:08,080
Speaker 2: look forward to whenever it comes out. I'm a West

1476
00:58:08,120 --> 00:58:11,080
Speaker 2: Coast fan living in Nevada. Shout out in Nevada, so

1477
00:58:11,120 --> 00:58:12,800
Speaker 2: there is nothing, no one here to talk about the

1478
00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:14,240
Speaker 2: Mets about it. I'm super happy to have some mess

1479
00:58:14,240 --> 00:58:15,640
Speaker 2: talk listen to while I'm at work. I love to

1480
00:58:15,680 --> 00:58:18,040
Speaker 2: consistent content and really enjoy the Prospect Reports as well,

1481
00:58:18,280 --> 00:58:20,240
Speaker 2: not Super two of the farm system. So as I

1482
00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:22,080
Speaker 2: am with the major league team, you guys are my

00:58:25,560 --> 00:58:27,120
Speaker 2: I'll be listening as long as you guys keep the

1486
00:58:27,120 --> 00:58:29,320
Speaker 2: show going. I also have a question in regards to

1487
00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:31,760
Speaker 2: the segment like media marvels and the Prospect Reports, I

1488
00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:34,160
Speaker 2: was a big fan of estimate section previous episodes. So

1489
00:58:34,160 --> 00:58:36,520
Speaker 2: you guys plan bringing that back in some capacity? Uh

1490
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:39,919
Speaker 2: maybe because some show news. I mean, I'm not gonna

1491
00:58:39,920 --> 00:58:41,400
Speaker 2: make them come on camera and talk right now, but

1492
00:58:41,440 --> 00:58:42,960
Speaker 2: because it's gonna make it hard from the edit. But

1493
00:58:43,240 --> 00:58:46,200
Speaker 2: we have a summer intern and I'm sure sorry about

1494
00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:49,960
Speaker 2: this one for you guys. Nepotism was major nepotisms. My cousin,

1495
00:58:50,000 --> 00:58:53,560
Speaker 2: Matt the Man. Matt is a senior at Butler University.

1496
00:58:53,640 --> 00:58:56,600
Speaker 2: Go Bulldogs. He is training and planning and working this

1497
00:58:56,640 --> 00:58:59,840
Speaker 2: summer to become a baseball play by play announcer. He's

1498
00:58:59,840 --> 00:59:01,880
Speaker 2: a dog, He's a beast, hard worker, and that's just

1499
00:59:01,880 --> 00:59:04,200
Speaker 2: such a freak for his teams. Like he's the biggest

1500
00:59:04,280 --> 00:59:06,720
Speaker 2: Ranger fan I know. He keeps our group, our cousin

1501
00:59:06,760 --> 00:59:08,920
Speaker 2: group chat going with Ranger content all year and just

1502
00:59:09,040 --> 00:59:11,160
Speaker 2: a crazy psyco Mets fans like since he was a

1503
00:59:11,200 --> 00:59:12,880
Speaker 2: small chial since I remember him being a small trout.

1504
00:59:12,920 --> 00:59:16,840
Speaker 2: We used to play football together upstate. So Masterman, shout

1505
00:59:16,840 --> 00:59:18,800
Speaker 2: out nepotism and shoutout him. So maybe with him we

1506
00:59:18,800 --> 00:59:20,600
Speaker 2: will be able to bring back things like estimate where

1507
00:59:20,640 --> 00:59:21,920
Speaker 2: like Mark and I can go head to head and

1508
00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:23,240
Speaker 2: like you know, make some wagers on stuff.

1509
00:59:23,440 --> 00:59:26,160
Speaker 1: I think that we should introduce him in the next episode.

1510
00:59:26,200 --> 00:59:28,880
Speaker 1: Next next Sunday's episode will introduce him. But I think

1511
00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:30,480
Speaker 1: like a little bit of homework, like he has to

1512
00:59:30,560 --> 00:59:32,280
Speaker 1: he has to come with something. He's gotta he's gotta

1513
00:59:32,280 --> 00:59:33,600
Speaker 1: bring the heat somewhere.

1514
00:59:33,400 --> 00:59:35,600
Speaker 2: Bring a segment of quiz, give give us something for

1515
00:59:35,720 --> 00:59:36,960
Speaker 2: Mark and I had to like make a bet on

1516
00:59:37,080 --> 00:59:38,760
Speaker 2: or something well, or just bring a staff. You want

1517
00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:40,200
Speaker 2: to just like talk a stack because you do have

1518
00:59:40,240 --> 00:59:41,880
Speaker 2: crazy stats in that noggin. So if you want to

1519
00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:44,280
Speaker 2: come and say something cool that happened are you? We

1520
00:59:44,400 --> 00:59:46,040
Speaker 2: can give you the Matt minute. We'll give you a minute,

1521
00:59:46,040 --> 00:59:47,400
Speaker 2: Like maybe that could be the Matt minute.

1522
00:59:47,440 --> 00:59:47,880
Speaker 1: Matt minute.

1523
00:59:47,880 --> 00:59:50,400
Speaker 2: All right, Matt minute, Givett one minute to to jump
