1
00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:10,559
Speaker 1: What's up, everybody. This is Tyler Stafford here with Josh

2
00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 1: Reddick on Crest City Territory. Uh. We kicked Chandler out.

3
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:18,119
Speaker 1: He's gone. Uh No, he did the he did the

4
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:22,000
Speaker 1: classic thing of taking a vacation. He went went to

5
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:24,600
Speaker 1: Marty Grass and then I think he's faking being SI.

6
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:26,920
Speaker 1: You know what happened. Yeah, I don't. I don't buy.

7
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 1: I don't buy this hole.

8
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,360
Speaker 2: He says the flu and doesn't have his voice. But yeah,

9
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:33,800
Speaker 2: I'm not doubting. He may have flu like symptoms, but

10
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 2: I'm not sure he's flu.

11
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:36,240
Speaker 3: Yeah.

12
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 1: Most of you guys caught the flu the day after

13
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:42,000
Speaker 1: you clinch a division, right, Josh correct?

14
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:44,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, usually though we did a pretty good job at

15
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:47,159
Speaker 2: clinching before off days. Uh huh, so that was that

16
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 2: was always a nice, nice recovery day.

17
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:50,240
Speaker 3: Yeah.

18
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,200
Speaker 1: What have you been up through? Man? You're you're back home?

19
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 2: Yep, back home another weekend of go kart racing. Wife

20
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 2: and Maverick are off in Charlotte, Carolina and getting ready

21
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,399
Speaker 2: for the weekend race, while Rider and I are hanging

22
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:08,880
Speaker 2: out here getting baseball practice, soccer practice, soccer games in.

23
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 3: For the next three days.

24
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 1: So there we go. Are any of them. Are they

25
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 1: all right handed?

26
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:20,760
Speaker 3: No? My writer is my natural born lefty right Yep.

27
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:22,759
Speaker 2: The best part is I didn't have to do anything.

28
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,760
Speaker 2: I didn't have to teach him. He just grabbed the

29
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:26,160
Speaker 2: bat and.

30
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 3: Started swinging left hand, and I was like, we did it. Yeah,

31
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 3: we didn't. It's funny.

32
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:32,760
Speaker 2: It's funny because I tried to force him to be

33
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,759
Speaker 2: a left handed thrower, but he never He never took

34
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 2: to it as much as I want, I would hope, right,

35
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:38,759
Speaker 2: I just stopped forcing it.

36
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 1: That's how. That's how my oldest daughter is too. I've

37
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 1: I've only shown her how to hit left handed, so

38
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,559
Speaker 1: she doesn't know that she can do the other way.

39
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 1: She does everything else right handed.

40
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 3: Right.

41
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, I'm gonna force you to do that. Yeah,

42
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 1: I always. I always got mad at people like you.

43
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 1: Guys though you're you're stolen valor lefty. You get all

44
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 1: the benefit of hitting left handed, but you don't get

45
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 1: you know, pin on your hand in mass you know,

46
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 1: I'm upset with you people that take the lefty away

47
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:11,799
Speaker 1: from us.

48
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,080
Speaker 2: More natural that way anyway, right hands on the bottom,

49
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 2: strong hand on the bottom as opposed to being on

50
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:17,640
Speaker 2: the top, so it.

51
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 3: Just it just makes more sense.

52
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's interesting. I played tennis, and you know, your

53
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: tennis backhand would essentially be your opposite hand swing right like,

54
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,920
Speaker 1: it would be like I was swinging right handed. So

55
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 1: I did have that motion forever. It's just funny that

56
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 1: when you play baseball that's not how they teach you.

57
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 2: And it's always it's always funny to me because I

58
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 2: grew up like guys like Brian McCann and John Lester

59
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 2: come to mind, guys who like are lefty hitters and

60
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 2: like Lester's lefty lefty and they play golf right handed. Oh,

61
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 2: it makes no sense, Like how can you go to

62
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 2: the plate and be okay hitting like this way and

63
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 2: then you get down looking like this and you hitting

64
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 2: that Like I just don't understand, Like if you can

65
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 2: do that in golf, why can't you do that in baseball.

66
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, And it's weird how you can compartmentalize it too,

67
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 1: because I'm sure you've faked being a switch hitter. You know,

68
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 1: everybody does. Everybody.

69
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean we were all switch hitters at age

70
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 3: like nine.

71
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 1: So yeah, but it's weird how you have like a

72
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 1: better eye on one side you swing it different It's

73
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 1: just funny to me that you would think that standing,

74
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 1: you know, a foot apart from where you normally do.

75
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 1: But something about switching that really does mess with your brain.

76
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 3: Perspective, man, It's all about perspective.

77
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 1: So have you have you caught any of the spring

78
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 1: training action.

79
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,079
Speaker 3: I've been in there a little bit.

80
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 2: I've watched the highlights basically of what I can get

81
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 2: from everybody that I follow.

82
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 3: And so yeah, I'm keeping up. I guess with what

83
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 3: the important stuff. I guess would be. You know, the

84
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 3: catches out two VA's making and left, you know, and

85
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 3: obviously they've had to show the air, the throwing air

86
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 3: at home, which you know we're going to just throw

87
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 3: that right out the window.

88
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 2: We're not worried about throwing airs. He's making plays at

89
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 2: the wall. We're happy, We're going to be good with that.

90
00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 2: Cam Smith still hitting the ball hard. Yeah, and then yeah,

91
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 2: I think that's pretty much everything I've seen on everybody's reports,

92
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 2: and everybody's talking about Lance throwing and I have seen

93
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 2: zero results.

94
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 3: On what happened.

95
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've seen a few of his videos, like like

96
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 1: you said, we saw the the air from from short

97
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 1: left field. But whatever, that's a that's a new throw.

98
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,359
Speaker 1: Like you said, the thing that was impressive to me

99
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 1: was that kind of over the shoulder running into the

100
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 1: wall catch the ad That seems like something that would

101
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,480
Speaker 1: take a lot of time to be comfortable with. I

102
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 1: was surprised to see him be able to handle that already.

103
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:38,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, he seems like he's he has no fear of

104
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,599
Speaker 2: running into the wall because he's just going out out there,

105
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 2: all out for those flat balls that are hit well,

106
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:45,600
Speaker 2: and you know, have him full tilt and he's playing

107
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,479
Speaker 2: it great. He's getting everything to support his body after

108
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 2: he makes the catch.

109
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:50,480
Speaker 3: Everything looks great right now.

110
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 2: So and the best part is, you know when you

111
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,159
Speaker 2: watch his route, because it is really really good, there's

112
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 2: no like there's just there's no angle. It's direct, it's

113
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 2: straight to the so it's right. It's everything's looking good

114
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 2: right now for him.

115
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:03,479
Speaker 3: If he's doing.

116
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 2: That in that ballpark, you know, with what we know

117
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 2: the wind can do there in West Palm, he's gonna

118
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 2: have no problem doing anything when when the ball plays

119
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:12,600
Speaker 2: naturally inside the dome.

120
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: How has uh, how is coaching like route running and

121
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: outfield defense changed in the last ten to fifteen years.

122
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 1: I assume with more technology and analytics and stuff, there's

123
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,480
Speaker 1: you know, like we can see spin rate on pitches,

124
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,039
Speaker 1: we know your exact launch angle on hitting. There's a

125
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 1: science to it. Is is there anything like that on

126
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 1: the defensive side or is it still kind of more?

127
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 1: You know, just feel I.

128
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 2: Don't know if they have anything for that analytically yet

129
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 2: they didn't when I was around.

130
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 3: The only thing we did.

131
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 2: To analytics and the outfit was like based on where

132
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 2: the guys hit the ball in the gap where we

133
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 2: were shifting, you know, ten feet to the right, ten

134
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 2: feet to the left, and then after that, you know,

135
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:55,359
Speaker 2: I think it was all just what you had to

136
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,720
Speaker 2: react to. But the best way to coach reactions like

137
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 2: that and get getting your knowledge of how the ball

138
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 2: flies and how the ball dies.

139
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 3: Is pretty much just reps.

140
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:06,600
Speaker 2: And you know, at some point the natural athlete is

141
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,280
Speaker 2: going to take over, but the repetitions you get are

142
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 2: just gonna make it that much better and make you

143
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 2: that much better. And work on everything from your footwork

144
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 2: to your shoulder work, making sure everything tastes tight so

145
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:18,720
Speaker 2: you can get the best direct route you can without

146
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 2: flailing all over the place.

147
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 3: So he's doing good.

148
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:21,719
Speaker 1: He's good.

149
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:23,799
Speaker 2: He seems to be getting his reps every day, when

150
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 2: it's in early work, when it's a normal work, when

151
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 2: it's in the game. So it's good to see that

152
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,840
Speaker 2: he's getting action in the game because you can never

153
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 2: simulate that kind of thing in batting practice.

154
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 1: Did you have a like a point of reference for

155
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 1: you when you when you jogged out to left field

156
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:41,919
Speaker 1: that dyke and park? Did you have like a physical

157
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 1: thing that you were looking for, like this is my

158
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,039
Speaker 1: home spot out here? Was it a blade of grass

159
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:47,919
Speaker 1: or do you line your eyes up anywhere?

160
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,159
Speaker 2: Usually when I'm playing, you know, left or the court,

161
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 2: either corner, I'm a mold squad. I kind of played

162
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:55,839
Speaker 2: just even with the bags where the first base is

163
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 2: lining up with second and vice versus third and second.

164
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 2: But but they're in and dyke and you know, I

165
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 2: always like to be like maybe eight to ten feet

166
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 2: to the gap of the wall, because if I can

167
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 2: get anything soft enough hit, I can just go straight

168
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:11,480
Speaker 2: line towards the towards the line.

169
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 3: Anything I can't get I can kind.

170
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 2: Of just directly go at shortstop and play the play

171
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 2: the you know, the carem, and that way, I still

172
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,640
Speaker 2: cover the gap plenty enough to where I need to be,

173
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 2: so I always like to do that too, But like

174
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 2: I said, when I was around, it was kind of

175
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 2: later in my career that it was more being controlled

176
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 2: by the system as opposed to like the knowledge and reading.

177
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 2: If you read a swing good enough, they'd let you move.

178
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 2: But they were pretty content with that little sheet in

179
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 2: our back pocket being where they wanted you. So I

180
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 2: guess gave us kind of a crutch to lean on

181
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 2: if something happened. Like, you know, we're playing a guy

182
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 2: in the gap and then we're throwing him all off

183
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 2: speed and he's a right handed hitter, Like, what makes

184
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 2: no sense?

185
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 3: Why mind in the gap, befo, We're just going to

186
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 3: throw this call off speed Like.

187
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 2: You gave me the wrong report, you gave him the

188
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 2: wrong report. Somebody got to figure it out.

189
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 1: The thing I love about baseball is that there's always

190
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 1: like another level of anything you do. You have to

191
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,680
Speaker 1: then think on the other side. Like I feel like

192
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 1: the legends of you know, the super veteran hitters, they

193
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 1: could probably tell based on where people were being positioned

194
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 1: what they were getting thrown, you know, like if they're

195
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 1: moving around a certain way, they're like, hey, normally he

196
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 1: plays me, you know, ten feet to the riot. Why

197
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 1: are they doing that? They must be they must be

198
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 1: attacking this part.

199
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 3: You know.

200
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,679
Speaker 1: I just love that about baseball that you're constantly trying

201
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 1: to outthink, uh, the other person.

202
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 3: But yeah, you're seeing that too.

203
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,520
Speaker 2: As a hitter, you're seeing the center field or you know,

204
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 2: shift from one side or the other. And if any

205
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 2: experienced pitcher is going to pitch to his defense, and yeah,

206
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 2: you can definitely react to that and a coming maybe

207
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 2: off speed, off speed if they're pulling.

208
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 3: So game of chess man.

209
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 1: When when you're standing in the outfield, how much of

210
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 1: the stands can you hear? Like can you hear people's

211
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 1: conversations or is it just that they like scream at you?

212
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 2: You know, no conversation is really too far away from

213
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 2: that unless they're like having an innoxiously loud one then yeah,

214
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,680
Speaker 2: but no, I mean, you obviously hear the chance, you

215
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 2: hear the heckling. But it's it's kind of all like

216
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 2: it becomes white noise at any point in time at

217
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 2: the game. Obviously, when you know the pitch is being thrown,

218
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:18,960
Speaker 2: every pitch is being thrown, it's like it kind of

219
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 2: just goes silent for an instant and then you know

220
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 2: everything just happened. So but yeah, it basically becomes white

221
00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 2: noise at times until you hear something either funny or

222
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,440
Speaker 2: or outrageously dumb or you know, provocative, and there's just

223
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 2: certain things that stand out.

224
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,559
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, that always cracks me up. When you're you're

225
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 1: in the like upper decks and somebody's screaming, I'm like, dude,

226
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 1: I can barely hear you. There's no way that they

227
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 1: can hear you down there.

228
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 2: It's funny because like if they time it right, obviously

229
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,200
Speaker 2: you can do it. But I've been in ballpark where

230
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,280
Speaker 2: my dad has been there, and you know, just have

231
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 2: those people's voices that stand out, and my dad get

232
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 2: a loud my dad has a loud mouth. Anyway, it

233
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,840
Speaker 2: was like the fourth inning of a game in Yankee

234
00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 2: Stadium playing the age obviously wasn't packed and sold out,

235
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:03,680
Speaker 2: but there were still plenty of people there because it

236
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 2: was Yankee Stadium, and my dad waited until they got quiet,

237
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:09,560
Speaker 2: and he stood up and shouted so loud the whole

238
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 2: stadium was quiet, like super And I was in the

239
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,240
Speaker 2: batter's box too, so like I had to call time

240
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,320
Speaker 2: because there's not much that can kind of distract me.

241
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 2: But when he stood out, I had to. I had

242
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 2: to literally step out because he threw me off my game.

243
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:23,839
Speaker 2: And it's funny because every ballpark I'd go to, he

244
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,760
Speaker 2: would do that, and it just didn't matter if the

245
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 2: crowd was loud or not.

246
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 3: He always stood out.

247
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. You know who else is uh standing out right now?

248
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 1: Is Cam Smith. He's he's good, right.

249
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 3: Like he says, he's just he sees the fastball and hits.

250
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:43,120
Speaker 3: It's what he says.

251
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,199
Speaker 2: I said, I got a fastball, so I swung. He

252
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 2: seems very simple, he seems very professional. I mean, he's

253
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:52,559
Speaker 2: driving the baseball. So everything's pointing to positive for him

254
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 2: right now. I know I haven't seen or heard anything

255
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,080
Speaker 2: about defense, but you know, no news is good news

256
00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:00,840
Speaker 2: on that front if he's not messing anything up. So

257
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 2: this this kid is, if he stays like this, he's

258
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 2: going to make it a very hard decision for upper

259
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:07,120
Speaker 2: staff when in the spring training goes around.

260
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 1: Which is crazy because as we've mentioned, I think he

261
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 1: has like one hundred and forty minor league appearances above

262
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 1: you know high a right like he's he does not

263
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 1: have a ton of experience, But I mean, to my eyes, Josh,

264
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 1: he he looks like a major league hitter. I mean again,

265
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 1: I know it's a super small sample size. We haven't

266
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 1: seen a lot of stuff, but just the way that

267
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,199
Speaker 1: he carries himself in the box, the way his swings look.

268
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:37,960
Speaker 1: He does not look overmatched. Is that what you're seeing too?

269
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:40,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean from what I've seen, he doesn't look

270
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 3: like he's bothered or hindered by anything. Like you said,

271
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 3: over match. You don't see really any off balance swings,

272
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:46,679
Speaker 3: swinging it pitches.

273
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,120
Speaker 2: You know, this kid isn't just coming in and the

274
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 2: seventh inning and facing minor leaguers. He's facing starting big

275
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:55,240
Speaker 2: leaguers and some big league believers and still doing a

276
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,960
Speaker 2: fantastic job. So that's the thing that stands out, because

277
00:11:57,960 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 2: you can have these kids to have a great spring

278
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:02,199
Speaker 2: train and you look at their bats and it's all

279
00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,559
Speaker 2: you know, sixth inning or later when you're pretty much

280
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 2: playing against the team that you're going to be playing

281
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:08,520
Speaker 2: in the season of double A or triple A. So

282
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,440
Speaker 2: it's good to see these kids, and especially when you

283
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 2: get a piece like him back in the Tucker trade

284
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,720
Speaker 2: to be able to succeed, right Away, and you know,

285
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 2: if he keeps going this route, the one hundred and

286
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 2: forty appearances won't matter.

287
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 3: Especially in today's game.

288
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 2: Man, they don't really care about seasoning you in the

289
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 2: minor leagues anymore. If if they think you're ready to succeed,

290
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 2: you show them that they're going to give you that chance.

291
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,560
Speaker 2: And you know, what does it hurt if he comes

292
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:33,079
Speaker 2: up and he doesn't do well. You send me in

293
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,840
Speaker 2: the triple A and he figures it out there. So

294
00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 2: you know, and especially the way things are looking right now,

295
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 2: we don't know what's going to happen with Walker, with

296
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 2: what he's got going on. And you know, you and

297
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,840
Speaker 2: I were talking before the show about you know, he's

298
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 2: he's thirty four, has oblique injuries in the past. Oblique

299
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,520
Speaker 2: injuries are no joke anyway, if it's your first or

300
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:54,400
Speaker 2: your second or third time, because everything you do in

301
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 2: a baseball uniform involves your core and your oblique. Been

302
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:01,080
Speaker 2: there twice, pulled one and Away pulled another one at

303
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 2: the beginning of season in twenty fifteen, so and it's

304
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 2: no fun. They were both grade twos and that's you know,

305
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,840
Speaker 2: six weeks was what it took for me. The minimum

306
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 2: was like four to six. Never took less than six

307
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:16,240
Speaker 2: weeks for me. We all recovered, you know, differently, but

308
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 2: you know, when when that injury rolls around, there's not

309
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:19,960
Speaker 2: a lot.

310
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 3: You can do, especially if you're above a grade one.

311
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 2: Once you know, that's two weeks of literally just icing

312
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 2: the side of your body, dethawing.

313
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:31,080
Speaker 3: And then doing it all over again for two weeks.

314
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 2: You know, that's that's that was your schedule, and that's

315
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 2: what it takes. And you know, it's it's hard to

316
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,440
Speaker 2: do daily activities. You sneeze, it hurts, and it's like

317
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 2: being stabbed with a knife every time you feel that

318
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 2: sharp pain go in.

319
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,080
Speaker 3: So it's not fun. And you imagine, you know how.

320
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:45,720
Speaker 2: Many all, how many times do we swing a bat

321
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,720
Speaker 2: in any given day. Guys are swinging bats, you know,

322
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:51,760
Speaker 2: two hundred, you know, two hundred times before they before

323
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,720
Speaker 2: the game even starts. So this is a bit, this

324
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 2: is a big factor, and hopefully it's something very minor.

325
00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 1: So I said it a computer for a living, and

326
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 1: I'm assuming that most of the people listening to us

327
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 1: and watching us on YouTube are in a similar boat.

328
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:10,400
Speaker 1: What what happens when you strain your oblique I mean,

329
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,440
Speaker 1: is it just a shooting pain down your rit like,

330
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 1: what what is it?

331
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 2: So for mine like it was it was it was

332
00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 2: more on the backside for me, so I got it

333
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 2: right into my rib cage and for me both times

334
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 2: when it happened, it felt like somebody took like a

335
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 2: three inch blade and just stabbed me in the side

336
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 2: both times and immediately you just go down to the ground.

337
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 2: My first one, I did it on a swing, hit

338
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 2: a ball to second base and just went down to

339
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 2: a knee.

340
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 3: Couldn't even run.

341
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,680
Speaker 2: The twenty fifteen when was actually crazy because we were

342
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:42,400
Speaker 2: doing wall ball drills as outfielders in.

343
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 3: The morning work, and you know, he threw hit one

344
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 3: a little high.

345
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 2: So I tried to rob it like any person would,

346
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 2: and I grabbed a chain link part of our fence,

347
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,600
Speaker 2: and when I pulled, I heard and felt a pop

348
00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 2: on my right side, and I knew right away my

349
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 2: oblique had been popped. So I walked off the field

350
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 2: and straight the trainers all this and I gotta go

351
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 2: get in Mari. I just pop my oblique and go.

352
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 3: Okay, let's go. And that was that. Six and a

353
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:09,920
Speaker 3: half weeks.

354
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 1: Later, when you said wallball, I thought you meant you

355
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 1: guys were just out at a brick wall playing. Yeah,

356
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 1: I'm like, dude, we got to bring that back. That

357
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 1: was so much fun.

358
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:21,440
Speaker 3: I guess would be a better one.

359
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 1: Finish drills I got, I got spot Iceberg. We're chunking

360
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 1: at each other.

361
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:29,240
Speaker 3: Was it wasn't even a game.

362
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:32,560
Speaker 2: It was like the after my first game in spring training,

363
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 2: like literally like the next morning before I started my

364
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 2: second game.

365
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 3: Did that?

366
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 1: So I mean, at minimum, he's going to be out

367
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks, and he's also going to have

368
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:46,440
Speaker 1: to just see live pitching too, because it's not like

369
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 1: it's in the middle of the season where your your

370
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 1: timing is there. So I mean, I would imagine it.

371
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 1: You know, at minimum, we're looking three to four weeks

372
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 1: before he's game ready, which is right when the season starts.

373
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 1: So now we're starting to think about roster construction. You know,

374
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:06,960
Speaker 1: if he's not going to be available at the beginning

375
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 1: of the season, I think that means obviously Singleton, who

376
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,720
Speaker 1: we were talking about in our last couple episodes, does

377
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 1: he have a spot? I think pretty clearly yes now,

378
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 1: but then you've got another spot open, and we've talked

379
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 1: about it but does this leave the door open for

380
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 1: Cam Smith to somehow contribute to this team coming out

381
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 1: of the gate.

382
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 2: I think what is going to take for Cam Smith

383
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 2: to make this team is if he just absolutely rakes

384
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 2: the spring and you know, a guy like Kim is

385
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:44,040
Speaker 2: going to need like sixty to seventy at bats just

386
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 2: to get it ready, just so we can understand how

387
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 2: big leaguers are going to somewhat pitch and figure out

388
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 2: the big league side of things as opposed to just

389
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 2: getting a batch. Because if he is that consideration, you

390
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 2: don't want him to go to the field too on

391
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 2: a day where the team's playing and face some guy

392
00:16:57,560 --> 00:16:58,640
Speaker 2: who's going to be in Double A.

393
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:00,920
Speaker 3: So you just don't want that to get him in there.

394
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 2: Against experience and get him the experience that he's gonna

395
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 2: need to get there and get ready. So you know,

396
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,359
Speaker 2: it opens doors for I think other guys as well,

397
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 2: like we talked about, you know, I think it brings

398
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 2: in de Zenzo into the picture. Obviously, Singleton gets a

399
00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 2: majority of starts, and we'll start against Riotings if he

400
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:18,240
Speaker 2: has too.

401
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:20,440
Speaker 3: If if Walker does start in the DL to start

402
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:20,919
Speaker 3: this season.

403
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 2: But it's not just Cam Smith, you know, there's some

404
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:25,040
Speaker 2: other guys that are going to be watched a little

405
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 2: more closely now that they may need to hang on

406
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:28,919
Speaker 2: to for a little bit longer.

407
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:36,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, So it's crazy to me that Cam Smith could

408
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,920
Speaker 1: play himself into that because obviously, coming into the spring

409
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 1: training I don't think anyone probably even including himself, would

410
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,640
Speaker 1: have legitimately thought whether he makes the team for opening

411
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,639
Speaker 1: day or not, that that would even be a consideration.

412
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 1: And at this point, I feel like, I mean, that

413
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 1: has to be part of the conversation of where do

414
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 1: we need to get looks at this guy as to

415
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,720
Speaker 1: somebody that you know, we need to what again, whether

416
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 1: that actually happens or not, it is pretty crazy.

417
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 2: It is well, you know, I think it's a conversation

418
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 2: that the astro staff has to have this week.

419
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:09,160
Speaker 3: I mean, this is something that they have to.

420
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 2: Decide sooner rather than later because we've seen in the

421
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:17,720
Speaker 2: past last year cough cough, that you know, injury announcements

422
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 2: aren't very high up the list here, So there's there's

423
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 2: that that comes into place, so they have to be

424
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,840
Speaker 2: prepared for what may or may not happen. And you know,

425
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 2: if they once they figure that out, that's something that

426
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,280
Speaker 2: they need to have a sit down with Cam as

427
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,679
Speaker 2: well is to talk and it's like, look, kid, this

428
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:37,120
Speaker 2: is something that may happen, or you know, don't tell

429
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 2: them at all and not try to add any pressure

430
00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:40,200
Speaker 2: and do what they do and you know, wait till

431
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:43,000
Speaker 2: the last day of spring training and take them out

432
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,199
Speaker 2: and say, hey, kid, you made the roster, like you know,

433
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:47,640
Speaker 2: you're going with us to exhibition games, but you're you.

434
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:48,879
Speaker 3: Know, you're playing with us in Houston.

435
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 2: So yeah, I think this week is huge once because

436
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:55,040
Speaker 2: once they figure out the full details of Walker's injury,

437
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,280
Speaker 2: they're going to have to make a choice. And this

438
00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 2: is the time, this is crunch time. You know, we're,

439
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 2: like I said, we're not far off in the season.

440
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,320
Speaker 2: Spring training is going to go by faster than everybody thinks,

441
00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:05,879
Speaker 2: and it always does. And then it'll you know, be

442
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:09,480
Speaker 2: April and we'll be you know, hitting the ground and running.

443
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 1: When somebody on the team gets hurt, pulls something like that.

444
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 1: Do people in the clubhouse treat it like, you know,

445
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:18,399
Speaker 1: the flu is going around and they don't want to

446
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,199
Speaker 1: catch the injury bug. Does everybody get real weird the

447
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:21,760
Speaker 1: next day?

448
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 3: Uh? Not?

449
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 2: In my experience, No, you just you just kind of

450
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:32,240
Speaker 2: feel for the guy and you know, hey, man sucks,

451
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 2: sorry to hear it, blah blah blah kind of deal.

452
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:38,160
Speaker 2: But I don't think it's something that affects other guys

453
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 2: to where they're they're kind of panicking about an injury.

454
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:41,160
Speaker 3: Bug.

455
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:44,560
Speaker 1: Yeah. So, now, like you said, spring training is just

456
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:48,919
Speaker 1: a couple more weeks for the veterans, is there a

457
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:52,440
Speaker 1: time during spring training that you start to ram things

458
00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:54,960
Speaker 1: up even more? Like when when does it really start

459
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 1: to feel like, Okay, I got to get this done

460
00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:00,399
Speaker 1: because the season is right around the corner.

461
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 2: Usually when it all varies, Like for me personally, it

462
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:06,560
Speaker 2: was always like, if I get twenty to twenty five

463
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:10,879
Speaker 2: at bats in spring training, I'll be my timing should

464
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:12,440
Speaker 2: be right where I wanted to be, and I should

465
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 2: be ready to go. But my biggest thing was always

466
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 2: just kind of getting my body ready to put the

467
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,119
Speaker 2: cleats back on for three hours a day like that

468
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 2: was literally one of my hardest things was going through

469
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,680
Speaker 2: the foot pain of one breaking in new cleats in

470
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,159
Speaker 2: spring training, getting used to running in and out of

471
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:32,360
Speaker 2: the dugout with them on, because it's just something that

472
00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:34,359
Speaker 2: you know you don't do a whole lot in the

473
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:38,399
Speaker 2: off season. But that was really my thing, just getting

474
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 2: my body where I was used to wearing cleats again

475
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 2: and getting timing because the arm really was already ready,

476
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,000
Speaker 2: because you do your throwing stuff in the off season,

477
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:50,200
Speaker 2: but everything else, just saying baseball shape is what I always

478
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 2: always go back to, saying baseball shape, and that's exactly

479
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,120
Speaker 2: what it is. Just getting used to being in spikes,

480
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 2: standing on the field for three hours and getting in

481
00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:58,120
Speaker 2: the box and.

482
00:20:58,080 --> 00:20:59,879
Speaker 3: Just kind of getting that baseball prove back in.

483
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:02,439
Speaker 1: I feel like you should have just been wearing cleats

484
00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:04,280
Speaker 1: in the off season. You would have come in ready

485
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 1: to go.

486
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 3: No, absolutely not this.

487
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:09,400
Speaker 2: I don't have the same We didn't have the same

488
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,360
Speaker 2: grass that you're used to, So you don't really want

489
00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 2: to just walk.

490
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 1: Out and walk around the kitchen with the cleats on the.

491
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:19,840
Speaker 2: Kitchen or you know, the Texas or Georgia's South mud

492
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:23,280
Speaker 2: and get them all stained and dirty. So and most

493
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 2: of them were already in spring training anyway. You didn't

494
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 2: really travel with your cleats.

495
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 3: But you just had the old pair. But it just

496
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 3: wasn't something I wanted to do.

497
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 2: Obviously, you did your workout, your outfield drills your stuff

498
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:36,119
Speaker 2: like that and cleats. But you know that was thirty minutes,

499
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 2: you know, at max for me because it was always

500
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:41,760
Speaker 2: it was always just myself and a coach doing it.

501
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:43,199
Speaker 2: So we knocked it out pretty quick and they were

502
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,240
Speaker 2: immediately right back out of the cleats.

503
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 1: I was. I was scrolling TikTok earlier because I'm a

504
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 1: productive member of society, and I was scrolling. I had

505
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,360
Speaker 1: a couple of baseball highlights come up, and I'm sure

506
00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:01,440
Speaker 1: the algorithm just just hit me. And the next one

507
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 1: that popped up was a highlight video of you and

508
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:09,679
Speaker 1: the whole crowd singing careless whisperer behind you, And I

509
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:13,439
Speaker 1: had the thought, one, this rules walk up in the

510
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,400
Speaker 1: history of the game. Yeah, it's so fun. But two,

511
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,639
Speaker 1: I was like, it's weird to me that Josh is

512
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,360
Speaker 1: on the same Internet as me and you could conceivably

513
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 1: just be scrolling through one day and you see a

514
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:29,600
Speaker 1: highlight reel of yourself. Is that weird to like come

515
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,479
Speaker 1: across your name of other people talking about you when

516
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,440
Speaker 1: you're on the internet.

517
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,600
Speaker 3: At thirty eight. No, not really, and you know it happens.

518
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 3: It just you know, we know.

519
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:42,920
Speaker 2: How iPhones are any kind of cell phone works nowadays.

520
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,239
Speaker 2: You mentioned somebody's name a couple of times and then

521
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,920
Speaker 2: it becomes on Twitter, ex, Instagram and TikTok and everything.

522
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:50,719
Speaker 3: So it's definitely happened.

523
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 2: But you know, I think probably gosh, when it stopped

524
00:22:55,320 --> 00:23:00,479
Speaker 2: becoming like surreal to me would have been probably like

525
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 2: two thousand and fourteen fifteen, I guess, once I realized

526
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:06,200
Speaker 2: that I was here to stay and I wasn't going

527
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:09,160
Speaker 2: anywhere that you know, Okay, you're you're gonna be.

528
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:12,919
Speaker 3: You know, you're gonna be on TV, you're gonna be.

529
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,440
Speaker 2: On internet, you're gonna be talked about daily and blah

530
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:17,800
Speaker 2: blah blah. So it's just something that you're gonna have

531
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:19,879
Speaker 2: to learn to live with and adapt to. And you know,

532
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,120
Speaker 2: how you handle it is how you handle it. So yeah,

533
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:24,720
Speaker 2: those first few years, and I'll never I'll never forget.

534
00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 2: You know, when I when I debuted, I must have

535
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:31,679
Speaker 2: watched the video of my first hit fifty times that

536
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:32,840
Speaker 2: night before I went to sleep.

537
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,760
Speaker 1: I was about to ask you, what, like, how often

538
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:37,119
Speaker 1: were you watching highlight reels?

539
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:39,359
Speaker 3: I still watch the day I watched out when I

540
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,240
Speaker 3: watched highlights of this day? But I watched my first

541
00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:43,320
Speaker 3: career stuff like all the time, and.

542
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:46,120
Speaker 2: Like I had my first career home run like two

543
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,720
Speaker 2: days later in a day game, and then we flew

544
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:53,439
Speaker 2: from Baltimore to Tampa, and I literally didn't go to

545
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:55,879
Speaker 2: sleep till probably like four or five am, because I

546
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,160
Speaker 2: was so stoked that I hit my first career big

547
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:01,280
Speaker 2: league homer. And I didn't mind you. I was facing

548
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:03,320
Speaker 2: like Matt Garza the next day, so that was my

549
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,239
Speaker 2: best choice. But I literally could not sleep because I

550
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 2: was just so excited that I had gotten to the

551
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:09,359
Speaker 2: big leagues and hit a home run.

552
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:11,639
Speaker 1: Do you remember the first time you were on like

553
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 1: Sports Center top ten?

554
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 3: Yes? I have a two part story for that.

555
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:19,520
Speaker 2: So the first time I made Sports Center top ten,

556
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:22,719
Speaker 2: I was actually I just graduated high school really, and

557
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:25,399
Speaker 2: I was at Turner Field and the Braves were playing

558
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 2: the Brewers on a Sunday afternoon. I'm front row and

559
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,119
Speaker 2: left field, and in turn old Turner you had like

560
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,280
Speaker 2: probably three feet of space between the front row and

561
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:38,879
Speaker 2: the wall. Well, Carlos Big Carlos Lee's playing left field

562
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:41,399
Speaker 2: and I've been wearing him out all weekend.

563
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:42,480
Speaker 3: I was that guy.

564
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:44,679
Speaker 2: I wasn't very I went provoct to it, but you

565
00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:47,680
Speaker 2: know the standard you suck, you can't. And he wasn't

566
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 2: hitting with a dang either, so I was just I

567
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 2: was on him. And then I can't remember who hit

568
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:54,920
Speaker 2: the ball that somebody hit a ball that was blning

569
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,880
Speaker 2: right for us, and I'm like ready to I leaned over,

570
00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:01,400
Speaker 2: ready to catch this thing, and carlos Lee he jumps and.

571
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:04,680
Speaker 3: Rob's this home run and literally almost.

572
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 2: Touches my hand and I after that, I didn't say

573
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:08,560
Speaker 2: one word about it.

574
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:09,359
Speaker 3: I was like, man, that was it.

575
00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:11,880
Speaker 2: I commemorated him and gave him all kinds of praise

576
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 2: from making a sick play.

577
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:14,520
Speaker 3: Sure enough went home.

578
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:18,000
Speaker 2: That night Sports Center's top ten number one play was

579
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,080
Speaker 2: Carlos Lee and all you see is eighteen year old

580
00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,000
Speaker 2: me leaning over ready to catch the ball.

581
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 1: So that was you have it on like VHS? Did

582
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,680
Speaker 1: you tape it on on the VCR? You ready to go?

583
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 2: I had actually called my parents to record it on

584
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,879
Speaker 2: on on the TV, so I'm pretty sure we had it.

585
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 3: I think that was DVD times we had blank DVDs.

586
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:42,760
Speaker 3: Then that was five, so me.

587
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 1: And my dad were at We were in the Crawford

588
00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:48,919
Speaker 1: boxes one time and Vigio hit a home run to

589
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:52,840
Speaker 1: the guy like in front of us. But we taped

590
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:57,280
Speaker 1: the game because we always did anyway, and we had

591
00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:59,679
Speaker 1: the clip. You could see us in this thing, and

592
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 1: I it was the coolest thing ever. We were like,

593
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:03,879
Speaker 1: I was like eight or nine, right, but I'm like

594
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:05,840
Speaker 1: showing it to all my friends when they came. That

595
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:07,959
Speaker 1: must have been so cool to be on Sports Center.

596
00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 2: My first one on Sports Center we're playing would have

597
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,639
Speaker 2: been probably my first career hit, Like I think you

598
00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:14,639
Speaker 2: know it was the Red Sox.

599
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:15,720
Speaker 3: We got a lot of coverage.

600
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 2: So but the one that I got probably more coverage

601
00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 2: was like the day I hit my first home run.

602
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,320
Speaker 2: I actually had a bloody nose. Had to stop the

603
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 2: inning before I had to stop Clay Buckles from pitching,

604
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,160
Speaker 2: go get my nose stopped and plug, go back out

605
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 2: to left field, get two more outs, and now let

606
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:35,560
Speaker 2: off the next inning and had to redo all that stuff.

607
00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 2: So the inning was like waiting for me to start.

608
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:42,480
Speaker 2: I'm three two days, three days in the show, bloody nose,

609
00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:44,080
Speaker 2: plug in my nose, and I go up and have

610
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 2: like a nine pitch at bat, hit my first career homer.

611
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:49,280
Speaker 2: So all that got talked about within like a five

612
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 2: minute stretch on Sports Center.

613
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 1: So it's your version of the Nolan Ryan picture of

614
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:57,560
Speaker 1: just covered in blood.

615
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,879
Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, nearly nowhere near as cool as a story.

616
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,320
Speaker 1: Did you have any guys at the beginning of your

617
00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:08,720
Speaker 1: career that you were like starstruck to come across from

618
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:09,960
Speaker 1: from watching them as a kid.

619
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:16,200
Speaker 2: The team I was on, Yeah, the clubhouse I walked

620
00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 2: into my first Big League camp was just full of

621
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 2: Hall of famers and veterans, like you know, obviously David

622
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 2: Ortiz is a pretty big one to walk into, and

623
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:27,680
Speaker 2: you know, just towering of a man, towers of you,

624
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:29,480
Speaker 2: biggest teddy bear on the planet too.

625
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:34,080
Speaker 3: He was one of them.

626
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,680
Speaker 2: People forget because this was nine, but John Smoltz was

627
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:39,920
Speaker 2: actually on the Red Sox in two thousand and nine.

628
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 2: So big Braves fan, huge, huge fan, big, big, big

629
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:45,760
Speaker 2: big fan boy there.

630
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 3: That team. Probably that was probably about it other than

631
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:51,639
Speaker 3: just the usual one names.

632
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 2: I mean, gosh, you go from like Mike Lowell, Pedroia,

633
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:59,000
Speaker 2: you know, I guess veteran then, but like Papa Bond,

634
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:02,120
Speaker 2: and you go to like less Ster Beckett, ver Tech,

635
00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:06,840
Speaker 2: Tim Wakefield, like just keeps going.

636
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,440
Speaker 3: Kevin Millwood was on our team. That year, like you

637
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:11,439
Speaker 3: could just keep going and going with the names in

638
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:12,240
Speaker 3: that clubhouse.

639
00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:16,080
Speaker 2: So the one that really got to me was obviously

640
00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:20,000
Speaker 2: beating my favorite player in Griffy. That was probably I

641
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,960
Speaker 2: think I was twenty seven in Oakland, of all places,

642
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,320
Speaker 2: we were playing the Angels and he was there doing

643
00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 2: a piece on trout.

644
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:31,440
Speaker 3: And he Chili Davis was our hitting.

645
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 2: Coach and Chili was a veteran when he was in

646
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 2: when he broke in, and so he was talking to Chili. Well,

647
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 2: Chili and I had been together for like three or

648
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 2: four years at that point, and he knew he was

649
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:42,800
Speaker 2: my favorite. So he called me over there and I

650
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 2: was speechless. I froze, couldn't say a word, just absolutely

651
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:50,200
Speaker 2: stunned that I was talking to Kingerford junior.

652
00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's uh, that would that would definitely give me too.

653
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 1: Do you remember the first time playing back in Atlanta

654
00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 1: as like a professional.

655
00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:01,840
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, My first would have been two twenty

656
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:04,080
Speaker 2: fourteen we went there with Oakland.

657
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:05,320
Speaker 3: Yeah.

658
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 2: I kind of had like an out of body experience moment,

659
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 2: Like I came into the dugout and all I could

660
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 2: see was little Josh and they at like in left

661
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,520
Speaker 2: field bleacher watching the game was.

662
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:16,080
Speaker 3: It was such a cool moment to be able to

663
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:17,880
Speaker 3: like sit there and.

664
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 2: Being that dugout because you know, I was that kid

665
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:21,840
Speaker 2: that said one day I'm going to be out there

666
00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:23,000
Speaker 2: and here I am.

667
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:25,760
Speaker 3: So just kind of a full circle moment of all

668
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:26,560
Speaker 3: dreams come true.

669
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 1: Man, did did your kids get to come out on

670
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 1: the field and see fireworks or anything when you were Oh? Yeah, yeah,

671
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:37,360
Speaker 1: so it is it just like Dad's office.

672
00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah.

673
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,640
Speaker 2: They don't really get the full picture of I played baseball.

674
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:45,680
Speaker 2: They know I played baseball on TV and stuff, but yeah,

675
00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:49,240
Speaker 2: when I was a Diamondback, they actually did Friday night fireworks.

676
00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:52,480
Speaker 2: So every Friday they would get to come down watch

677
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 2: the fireworks.

678
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 3: Loved it. They love fireworks.

679
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 2: But yeah, ever since, ever since they've been around and born,

680
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 2: even without fireworks, always come in the field to just run.

681
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:04,719
Speaker 2: So every time I do something, whether it be bananas

682
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 2: or like I did like a celebrity softball game out

683
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:11,520
Speaker 2: here last weekend for perfect game, and.

684
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 3: They literally came out and when we can we can

685
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 3: we go in the field? When can we go in

686
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:17,000
Speaker 3: the field? When's the game over?

687
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 2: And they have fireworks too, so they got to go

688
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 2: on the field for fireworks, and then they got to

689
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 2: run on the field, so they expect it.

690
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 3: Now they expect.

691
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:25,680
Speaker 2: They know that, they get special privileges and everybody else

692
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 2: at the ballpark, and then they're used to it.

693
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:31,560
Speaker 1: Can Maverick take you in Mario Kart?

694
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 3: No? He could not.

695
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 1: That's good.

696
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:37,720

708
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:02,120
Speaker 2: I do it on my iPad.

709
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,280
Speaker 3: What yeah, both of both systems.

710
00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:08,480
Speaker 2: You can do this thing called remote play, and I

711
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 2: can link up my control.

712
00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,000
Speaker 3: I play on my Xbox controler. Just bluetooth it to

713
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 3: the iPad.

714
00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,360

715
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:19,040
Speaker 2: you can connect and do it remotely. So it turns

716
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:22,880
Speaker 2: on the Xbox things loads everything. So yeah, I can

717
00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 2: literally do it in my living room when my kids

718
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:27,880

719
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 2: to do, I'll just pull out the iPad and play for.

720
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,640
Speaker 1: While the while they're watching Blue or whatever you can

721
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:35,680

722
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,960

727
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:49,240
