1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:06,960
Speaker 1: All right, but it the failure. Oh. It is Thursday,

2
00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:09,680
Speaker 1: the fourth of July, and the Yankees were taking on

3
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:12,039
Speaker 1: the Reds in game three of a three game set,

4
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:15,280
Speaker 1: trying to avoid the sweep. Plenty of fireworks this afternoon,

5
00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:18,160
Speaker 1: but most of them courtesy of the Reds. My recap,

6
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:23,080
Speaker 1: your reaction's coming up next. This is NYY Recaps. Welcome

7
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:35,919
Speaker 1: dude that can say you call me back. Welcome back, everybody,

8
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 1: Welcome back, Happy fourth of July. If you are not

9
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 1: in the mood to celebrate, I feel you. Yankees just

10
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 1: got swept by the Cincinnati Reds. They dropped this one

11
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:51,199
Speaker 1: eight to four. They did hit the ball out of

12
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:55,120
Speaker 1: the ballpark a little bit, but it was another putrid,

13
00:00:55,520 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 1: embarrassing day. The pitching was non existent. Marcus Stroman served

14
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 1: up three long balls. My plan was to take the

15
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 1: afternoon off if the Yankees lost, but there were just

16
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 1: too many things that I wanted to talk about. We

17
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:13,760
Speaker 1: had some lacks of daisical effort out there. Grisham, you know,

18
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:17,199
Speaker 1: we had a terrible performance by Marcus Stroman. Ben Rice

19
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,880
Speaker 1: was in the leadoff spot. He also hit his first

20
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,639
Speaker 1: home run. Austin Wells went deep, Juan Soto went deep,

21
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 1: but you know, the pitching was bad once again, eight runs.

22
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,479
Speaker 1: Not only Stroman, but the underbelly of the Yankees bullpen

23
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 1: once again gets hammered. The game was actually the second

24
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 1: loss that the Yankees had today. The game was delayed

25
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:45,480
Speaker 1: slightly and the Yanks and Reds had what is known

26
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 1: as an anthem standoff, where a couple of guys from

27
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 1: each side continue to stand in place where they were

28
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 1: during the national anthem and refused to leave until one

29
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 1: of three things happened. They get ejected, the manager tells

30
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 1: him to go back in the dugout, or the other

31
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 1: side leaves, so it's like a blink, you know, staredown,

32
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,239
Speaker 1: no blinking kind of thing. In this case, the Reds

33
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:12,639
Speaker 1: were victorious. Aaron Boone pulled the plug quick hook once again.

34
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 1: Yankees legend Frankie Montos was on the mound for the Reds,

35
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:19,520
Speaker 1: and of course he was very good. He went five

36
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 1: innings tour and runs. He got four point one to

37
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 1: nine ERA so far this season, bouncing back nicely with

38
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 1: the Reds. That's gonna be an all time trade. That's

39
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:35,239
Speaker 1: gonna be in Brian Cashman's obituary, longtime GM of the

40
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 1: Yankees five World Series championships, but also traded for Frankie Motas.

41
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 1: I'll tell you, Ben Rice was in the leadoff spot,

42
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 1: struck out to lead off the game, but did have

43
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 1: a seven pitch at bat, flied out to center field,

44
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 1: and the second at bat then smoked a solo home

45
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 1: run in his third at bat, first home run of

46
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 1: his career. You have the kid a round of applause.

47
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 1: He did strike out to end the game, too, so

48
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,639
Speaker 1: it wasn't all sunshine into rainbows. We talked a few

49
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:05,080
Speaker 1: times about it on this channel in recent weeks. Who

50
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 1: would the Yankees go to if they dropped Anthony Bote

51
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 1: out of the leadoff spot? And really, Ben Rice, despite

52
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,920
Speaker 1: only being in the league like five minutes, kind of

53
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 1: fits the profile of a leadoff hitter. Takes a ton

54
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 1: of pitches, works the count, The characteristics of his bats

55
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,679
Speaker 1: are exactly what you want out of a leadoff hitter.

56
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 1: Maybe he's not as fast as the typical leadoff hitter,

57
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 1: but we don't need to misteal bases in front of

58
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 1: Judge and Soto, so you know, maybe once in a

59
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 1: while he pops them out of the ballpark, draws his walks,

60
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 1: he can be very productive as the leadoff man just

61
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 1: doing that. So congrats to Ben Rice on the big

62
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 1: swing of the bat. Story for me today though, was

63
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 1: Marcus Stroman. Didn't see him screaming at anybody in the

64
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 1: dugout today, could not keep the ball in the ballpark.

65
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:56,119
Speaker 1: Three more home runs, two solo shots, and a three

66
00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 1: run shot to Spencer Steer, and at this point the

67
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 1: wheels have completely fallen off for the Yankees' rotation. It

68
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 1: really does remind me a lot of what happened in

69
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two, where the Yankees had this historically good

70
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 1: stretch of unsustainable pitching performances and you knew that they

71
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 1: were gonna come back down to earth, and when they did,

72
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: the entire team collapsed like a house of cards around them.

73
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 1: Same thing appears to be happening this year. Deja vu

74
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 1: all over again, as Yogi would say. And I didn't

75
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 1: like Stroman's body language, I didn't like his stuff. Today.

76
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 1: Just a really bad day and three home runs served up.

77
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,839
Speaker 1: Not acceptable. Today seemed like a good day that we

78
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,159
Speaker 1: could check in on some of the prospects, kind of

79
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: get our mind off of the game a little bit.

80
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 1: So before we get to the recap, I thought we'd

81
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:50,280
Speaker 1: go through and take a look at some of the

82
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 1: Yankees top prospects how they're doing this year. Spencer Jones

83
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 1: is in Double A two hundred and seventy at bats.

84
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 1: He's got ten home runs, forty six ribbies, eighteen stolen bases,

85
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 1: only hitting two fifty two, but he hit two ninety

86
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:07,480
Speaker 1: six in June. The on base percentage continues to climb

87
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 1: seven to fifty eight ops, so he's not dominating yet,

88
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,840
Speaker 1: but he's been playing better. As we go down and

89
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:17,839
Speaker 1: look at his numbers from last year two sixty seven,

90
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: but in Double A hit two sixty one, so he's

91
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 1: actually fallen back a little bit in terms of his average.

92
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,840
Speaker 1: He's starting to climb up and get more comfortable. Only

93
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 1: played seventeen games in Double A last year, so hopefully

94
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:35,040
Speaker 1: he keeps hitting Augustine Ramirez at Triple A, overall, his

95
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 1: numbers are really good two sixty seven, eighteen home runs,

96
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,480
Speaker 1: fifty five RBIs. Triple A has been a little bit

97
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 1: more of a challenge, hitting just one forty three. He

98
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,840
Speaker 1: does have two home runs now, He's had forty two

99
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 1: at bats. He's only six for forty two thirteen strikeouts.

100
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 1: He's not a guy who strikes out a lot, and

101
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 1: he's got a little bit of pop. I think once

102
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 1: he gets a little bit more comfortable at Triple A

103
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 1: against see those numbers climb dramatically because he's a good hitter.

104
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 1: See he's hit everywhere. He's been in the Florida Coast

105
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 1: League three zho four then two seventy one last year

106
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 1: across three levels with eighteen home runs to eighty nine

107
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 1: in Double A so far this year. Let's move on

108
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 1: to Kleb Durbin, shortstop infielder, twenty four years old, little

109
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 1: guy five six eight five but hitting two ninety nine

110
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:27,160
Speaker 1: with a four thirteen on base percentage at Triple A,

111
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:30,680
Speaker 1: eight seventy one ops, twenty stolen bases. He might be

112
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 1: somebody who can help the Yankees out a little bit.

113
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 1: You know, he's a little spark plug type. Thirty six

114
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 1: stolen bases last year, hit over three hundred. Do not

115
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:42,920
Speaker 1: be shocked if at some point over the next several

116
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,040
Speaker 1: weeks you see him in the big leagues. And I

117
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:46,920
Speaker 1: think fans would love him because he's kind of an

118
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,280
Speaker 1: underdog type. They like to root for those guys. He

119
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 1: is on the sixty day il right now. But I

120
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 1: think I think I heard that he's coming back, so

121
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 1: stay tuned. Roderick Arius two seventeen, former number one international signee.

122
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 1: Six home runs, forty three RBIs, nineteen stolen bases, six

123
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:14,119
Speaker 1: seventy five ops. Not a great start to a season,

124
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 1: but again just nineteen years old. He is currently playing

125
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: in Tampa. The strikeouts are a problem. Two hundred and

126
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: eighty six at bats seventy two games, one hundred and

127
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 1: fifteen strikeouts already, and thirty six walks, so not the

128
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 1: ratio that you want. And we've heard a lot about

129
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 1: his ability to take pitches to work the count. It's

130
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 1: just not showing up in games yet. So he's obviously

131
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 1: a ways away. Yorbit Vivas at Triple A hitting two

132
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 1: forty five, three home runs, twenty RBIs, eight stolen bases,

133
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 1: heat it up a little bit in June after some

134
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 1: injuries early on, now two point fifty with a three

135
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 1: to ninety three on base percentage at Triple A. He's

136
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 1: worked his way up through a couple of levels as

137
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 1: he was rehabbing, and obviously he went one for eleven

138
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 1: in Tampa, so that kind of drags everything down but

139
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:05,640
Speaker 1: I feel good about him. I saw him in spring

140
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 1: training a couple of times. I like his approach at

141
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 1: the plate. I think he could be pretty good. And

142
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 1: then Jack Neely is somebody that Max Goodman mentioned the

143
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 1: other night. Twenty six games, thirty six innings, pitched fifty

144
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 1: seven strikeouts two point four to eight ERA out of

145
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 1: the bullpen. He seems like somebody who could be a

146
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 1: future member of the Yankees bullpen in the near future.

147
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 1: Six foot eight, two forty five, So you know, Dellan

148
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 1: betansis vibes anyway. All right, ladies and gentlemen, As Chris

149
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:42,439
Speaker 1: Petrillo says, Yankees hurtling towards mediocrity. It's not looking good.

150
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:47,080
Speaker 1: Let's get to the recap. Hang on just a second,

151
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 1: I hit the wrong button. All right, let's go. Let's

152
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 1: get it going. Easy first inning for Stroman, although Elie

153
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 1: de la Cruz did steal some second base and made

154
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,120
Speaker 1: it third base on a throwing everybody Austin Wells, But

155
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 1: I thought early on first inning, at least Stroman looked

156
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 1: pretty good. Not gonna chew Wells out on the bad

157
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 1: throw because Ellie gets everybody forty two stolen bases already,

158
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 1: Sodo got robbed of an extra base hit and the

159
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,080
Speaker 1: bottom half missed a home run by about a foot.

160
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 1: He made up for it later. Reds jumped out to

161
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 1: a one nothing lead on a solo home run in

162
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:23,599
Speaker 1: the top of the second bounced off the top of

163
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 1: the wall and went over. So right away they talk

164
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 1: about how baseball's a game of inches. Game of inches?

165
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 1: Was you know? It was inching in the other direction

166
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 1: away from the Yankees. The Reds had the advantage with

167
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 1: Sodo getting robbed and then the home run off the

168
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 1: top of the wall, so it could have easily been

169
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 1: won nothing. Yankees instead won nothing. Reds Jonathan India homeward

170
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 1: in the third inning to make it two to nothing.

171
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:49,439
Speaker 1: Also nice defensive play from Ben Rice in that inning

172
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 1: to snare a line drive off the bat of Ellie.

173
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 1: Three run home run from Steer in the top of

174
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 1: the fifth that made it five to nothing. Would be

175
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 1: nice if our pitchers could start keeping the ball in

176
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 1: the ballpark. Hey, try not to give up any home

177
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 1: runs and I'll wait for the parking lot that here.

178
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 1: Wells answered back with a solo shot in the bottom

179
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,079
Speaker 1: of the fifth inning four hundred and twenty three feet

180
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 1: absolutely smoked into the back of the Yankees bullpen. He's

181
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,679
Speaker 1: low keeping having better at bats recently. I wouldn't mind

182
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: if he took command of that catching position because I

183
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,319
Speaker 1: think he's starting to feel a little bit more comfortable

184
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,079
Speaker 1: with the plate. But I have little doubt that the

185
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 1: Yankees are gonna put Jose Travino back in there against

186
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 1: Boston and let them run wild and keel and kill

187
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 1: any momentum that Wells could have had. Later in the inning,

188
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 1: Ben Rice with his first big league homer, who first

189
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 1: career shot. Nice piece of hitting down and in that's

190
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 1: deadly for left handed, especially in Yankee Stadium, and he

191
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 1: finds the judges chambers nice compact swing, and even when

192
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,079
Speaker 1: he makes outs, I feel like he still has competitive

193
00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 1: at bats most of the time, doesn't chase a lot

194
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,480
Speaker 1: of pitches out of the zone. I know he struck

195
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 1: out against the lefty to end the game, but I

196
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: still want to see him in there against more lefties.

197
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 1: He hasn't had a ton of success against them, but

198
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 1: he's still growing as a player and I think it's

199
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 1: in there, so let's get him some more bats. That

200
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 1: home run kind of reminded me of Paul O'Neill. He

201
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 1: had Paul O'Neill in the booth today, and that's the

202
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 1: type of home run that he used to hit, those

203
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 1: kind of low arcing line drives that go about fifteen

204
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,719
Speaker 1: rows deep. So that was good to see. Redsplew the

205
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 1: game open with three runs in the seventh to make

206
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,360
Speaker 1: it eight to two. Yankees did get two runs back

207
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 1: on a home run to centerfield by Juan Soto twenty

208
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,960
Speaker 1: first of the season. That pulled the Yankees back to

209
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 1: within eight to four, But too little, too late, and

210
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 1: the Yankees drop another one and get swept. Good day there,

211
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:48,960
Speaker 1: he ate first your zone. Colt says, Rice looks like

212
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 1: he is the real deal. I one agree. He looks great,

213
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:58,000
Speaker 1: gaming kid. Joe says he needs a break from this team.

214
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:02,240
Speaker 1: I don't blame you. This is a tough stretch to

215
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,320
Speaker 1: watch if you're a Yankees fan. I don't even like

216
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:09,719
Speaker 1: to entertain the thought of getting swept at home, let

217
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 1: alone live through the reality. But at least at least

218
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 1: we got off to such a good start that we're

219
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 1: not completely sunk right now. There's still time to turn

220
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:25,240
Speaker 1: it around. They're gonna need to make some changes. The

221
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 1: vibe on this team is completely off right now, completely off.

222
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 1: I don't know how you fix that. I really think

223
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 1: that they need to act sooner rather than later. As

224
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,680
Speaker 1: far as trades, you need to inject something right now,

225
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 1: whether it's some youth from the minor leagues, or whether

226
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 1: it's going and getting a surprise bat to protect Judge

227
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 1: and Soto getting another pitcher. Unfortunately, there's not a lot

228
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 1: of impact players out there this year. There's a few,

229
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:02,679
Speaker 1: but there's not a ton. The ones that are possibly selling,

230
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,840
Speaker 1: the teams that could be sellers, they have no incentive

231
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:08,560
Speaker 1: to trade right now unless you vastly overpay. I mean,

232
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 1: you could probably go out and get Copek and whoever

233
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,959
Speaker 1: right now, but you'd have to part with better prospects

234
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:19,719
Speaker 1: to get them early because you're gonna have to overwhelm them.

235
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,800
Speaker 1: So I really think that the Yankees need to act

236
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 1: soon and kind of and put the plug in the

237
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 1: boat here and stop the water from coming. In action.

238
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 1: VJ says, we need a club, a team fight fighting

239
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:41,480
Speaker 1: each other or fighting another team. David Ishikawa says the

240
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 1: Yankees fans need a trip to the Phantom. I l

241
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,600
Speaker 1: I'll be over here like winning X and dl WI

242
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:57,959
Speaker 1: says Cashman needs to go. Cashman's reportedly going to go

243
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,560
Speaker 1: at the end of his contract, but you know, right now,

244
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 1: you don't change GM as in the middle of the season.

245
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 1: Right now, Kashman needs to get to work. That's what

246
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:09,960
Speaker 1: Kashman needs to do, try and fix this team. Stone

247
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:11,959
Speaker 1: Colt says Kay mentioned this is the first time in

248
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:15,440
Speaker 1: Yankees history they have been swept by an NL team. Yeah,

249
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 1: I heard that. Yeah, that's that's hard to believe. I

250
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:23,320
Speaker 1: feel like that had happened before, but I guess not anyway.

251
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 1: Wayne Wilcox says Cashman hasn't the Stones to do anything,

252
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 1: and D's Channel says there's no spark. I can't say

253
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 1: I disagree with many of these takes. It's not been

254
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:40,880
Speaker 1: a fun time to watch this team. Last night, obviously

255
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 1: I lost my cool. We had a rant. I can't

256
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 1: rant spontaneously that it like gathers like a like a storm,

257
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:50,720
Speaker 1: and then that energy gets spent. So I don't have

258
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 1: it in me today to rant, but I will say this,

259
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 1: I'm very disappointed in the way this team looks right now.

260
00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:02,320
Speaker 1: Body language vibes like they just seem like they're not interested.

261
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 1: They don't seem like they're particularly concerned with winning. They

262
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 1: get down, they don't fight. Remember how much fight they

263
00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 1: had early in the season. You don't see that anymore.

264
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 1: The pitching has gone completely a wall, and it's time

265
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 1: for Matt Blake to answer some questions. Quite frankly, we

266
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: talk a lot about how good a pitching coach he is. Oh,

267
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 1: let's go get this guy and pair him up with

268
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,440
Speaker 1: Matt Blake. Why so he can be good till July.

269
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 1: Let's get some answers to why these guys have stopped

270
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 1: being effective. What made them so effective early on that

271
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:41,600
Speaker 1: is not going on right now? Was rodn a little

272
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,600
Speaker 1: better last night, Sure, but he still gave up a

273
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 1: couple of home runs. Did Stroman have some good stuff

274
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 1: at times today? Sure, six strikeouts, but you can't be

275
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 1: giving up three home runs. The Yankees need to just

276
00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 1: figure out what has infected this pitching staff, fix it,

277
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 1: and get back to work. Let's take some final comments.

278
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 1: It seemed like a good day to let you guys

279
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 1: kind of drive the bus here at the end. Hot

280
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 1: far Hoyt McAllister says, getting swept by the Reds absolutely pathetic.

281
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 1: X NDO Whi says, JD. Davis not the answer, apparently not.

282
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 1: Peter X says JD. Davis, Baby Yankees are back. Davis

283
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 1: Pinch hit and struck out. Obviously hitting two twenty one

284
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:35,320
Speaker 1: not the answer. Action VJ says, a fight of some kind,

285
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 1: that's all he's saying. Just, you know, man up a

286
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:42,760
Speaker 1: little bit. Supreme says, we need Curtis Granderson back. Curtis

287
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 1: Granderson is like forty five years old by now, but

288
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:49,160
Speaker 1: I understand what you mean. We need that kind of personality.

289
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 1: We need that. You know, did Gregorias was perfect? I

290
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,520
Speaker 1: would love to bring him in as a coach, you know.

291
00:16:56,040 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 1: Clubhouse vibes director, that's what we need. Peter Rex says,

292
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:05,479
Speaker 1: let's wheel out Ceci. I bets CC could still get

293
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:09,399
Speaker 1: some guys out. Laurie C says, I'm not spending another

294
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 1: cent on these losers. It's a good thing that I

295
00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,119
Speaker 1: get the baseball package up front at the beginning of

296
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: the season, otherwise I might be with you anyway. Tough

297
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 1: day for the Yankees. Obviously, you hate to get swept.

298
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:25,879
Speaker 1: It's no fun Boston in town and then Baltimore or

299
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,439
Speaker 1: Boston and then the Rays and then Baltimore. So it

300
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:31,639
Speaker 1: doesn't get any easier from here. Yankees have got to

301
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:34,840
Speaker 1: figure out something. I don't know what it is, but

302
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 1: if it's a trade, if it's a minor leaguer, whatever

303
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:40,560
Speaker 1: you gotta do. You got to inject some life into

304
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 1: this team. Right now, we're uma Thurman and John Travolta

305
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 1: has got to come up and establish in the heart

306
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 1: with the with the the adrenaline. Gotta stab it three times.

307
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:58,199
Speaker 1: Come on, let's get it going. Let's wake up. No

308
00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:01,720
Speaker 1: more of this servant up. Three home runs a game, garbage.

309
