1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,800
Speaker 1: Bullpen coach Mike Harky told me when I got my

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:05,240
Speaker 1: tenth that final day to get that tenth year, he said,

3
00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:07,280
Speaker 1: they can't tell you ish no more.

4
00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:14,400
Speaker 2: Good afternoon, everybody, and welcome to the Friday episode of

5
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 2: Fair Territory. I am Alana Rizzo, filling in for Scott Braun,

6
00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:20,200
Speaker 2: who was on a beach someplace in Mexico.

7
00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:22,000
Speaker 3: Ves up, everybody, Cam, how you doing?

8
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:23,320
Speaker 4: Oh?

9
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:26,159
Speaker 1: Any day I see you, Alana. It turns into a

10
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:28,600
Speaker 1: much better day. Cratsy, his face.

11
00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 5: Is just okay, but you your smile brightens the room.

12
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 5: So I'm pumped to be on today. Let's go. Wow.

13
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:35,479
Speaker 3: Thanks very much.

14
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 2: All right, Eric Kratz always on Foul Territory, appreciate you

15
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 2: always for being here, my friend.

16
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:41,519
Speaker 3: Let's get into it.

17
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 2: Let us charge the mound as we talk a little

18
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 2: bit of Brewers and Giants next charging.

19
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 3: About all right.

20
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,480
Speaker 2: So, yesterday, guys, the Giants beat the Brewers by one.

21
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 2: Pat Murphy, who was the National League Manager of the

22
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 2: Year last year, apparently called a team meeting after that.

23
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 2: This is a guy that's been around the game a

24
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 2: long time, Adam Mcalvey, who covers the Brewers on a

25
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:06,679
Speaker 2: daily Basis says.

26
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 3: The Brewers clubhouse doors stayed close.

27
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 2: For thirty minutes after today's loss, the first twenty of

28
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 2: which were a team meeting discussed what Pat Murphy called

29
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:19,120
Speaker 2: the most unusually poor defensive series he's seen in ten

30
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 2: years with the team. So, Kratzy, we're going to start

31
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 2: with you. Pat Murphy's been around this game a long time.

32
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 2: He obviously has been around the Brewers a long time.

33
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,800
Speaker 2: When counsel goes over to the Cubs, Murph becomes the manager.

34
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,760
Speaker 2: As I mentioned, manager of the year last year, a

35
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:39,479
Speaker 2: closed door meeting, bad defense. What do you make of it, Kratz, I.

36
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,320
Speaker 6: Make the he had the feeling that they needed a

37
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 6: closed door meeting. He doesn't need the award of manager

38
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 6: of the year, which you mentioned twice, that players don't

39
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 6: need to know that he got manager of the year.

40
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 6: They understand that if this man says, hey, you know what,

41
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 6: we're going to sit you down and we're all going

42
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 6: to talk about this something that need to be a

43
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 6: dress and rarely do you see it as okay.

44
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 4: You know, maybe they weren't giving effort.

45
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 6: It was more the execution of the play and putting

46
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 6: yourself in good positions. And he felt like it was

47
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 6: something that needed to be said, so he said it.

48
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 6: And I think he's built up enough cachet in that

49
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:17,079
Speaker 6: locker room to be heard.

50
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 7: Cam.

51
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 2: You know that there are managers that can deal with

52
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 2: mistakes when they're physical mistakes. Sometimes you just can't make

53
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:26,799
Speaker 2: the play for whatever the reason. But I think it's

54
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 2: the mental mistakes Cam that will drive a manager crazy,

55
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 2: or lack of effort. Which maybe it wasn't the lack

56
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 2: of effort as Crats alluded to, but maybe he's just thinking,

57
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 2: you know what, if your head isn't in the game,

58
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 2: we need to have a conversation. What do you take

59
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 2: away from a closed door meeting a guy that doesn't

60
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 2: do this often?

61
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, for me, this is a situation where knowing Murph

62
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 1: and being you know, to have an opportunity to play

63
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: for him in the project organization. This is something that

64
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 1: didn't just happen that day, right, This is something that

65
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 1: I think he's probably been watching over time, and hey,

66
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 1: it might even have went back to spring training, right.

67
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 1: Understanding one what the Brewers do as organization. They're not

68
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:05,800
Speaker 1: going to go out and spend a bunch of money

69
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: and put together a Dodgers type of payroll or a

70
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,800
Speaker 1: Philly type of payroll. Right, they predicate and focus their

71
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 1: whole you know, you know, organizational way on playing good defense, pitching,

72
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 1: getting good bullpen innings at the end of games, the

73
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: small ball, getting guys over. These are the things that

74
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 1: have made the Brewers who they are, even before cred

75
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 1: Council left and then as Pat Murphy took the helm over.

76
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 5: So I think it's just one of those things he understands.

77
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 1: If we want to be who we can and the

78
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 1: best we can, we have to be a discipline team.

79
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 5: Right, we have to pay attention to the little details.

80
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 1: In Alana Kratzy, you know you've seen younger teams or

81
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 1: teams that have these kind of woes. I'm sure you'll

82
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: see some early work going on today. I'm sure some

83
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 1: guys will be out getting some extra balls, some extra

84
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 1: ground balls, some extra flyballs, whatever it may be. And

85
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 1: sometimes you need those little moments and those little attention

86
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 1: to detail callouts from your manager. And Pat one thing

87
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 1: I always said about him, he does such a great

88
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 1: job not with x's and those, but understanding people. And

89
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 1: sometimes that goes so far. And I think that was

90
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 1: a moment where he just you know, understands his guys, Hey,

91
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 1: let's realing in.

92
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 5: And I know he didn't probably rip them.

93
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:18,040
Speaker 1: He probably very calm conversation, knowing Pat, but just kind

94
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:19,840
Speaker 1: of called it to their attention, say, hey, guys, if

95
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:21,839
Speaker 1: we want to be better, continue to be what we

96
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 1: have been division, we have to clean it up and

97
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 1: be more disciplined.

98
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 6: I think nineteen ninety six Pat probably would have ripped them,

99
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:34,239
Speaker 6: but that twenty twenty twenty five Pat was probably they're

100
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 6: giving some stern words, and I don't know that they're

101
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 6: necessarily going to Like if you were to go see

102
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 6: a workout pregame and the ground balls and count how

103
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 6: many ground balls or anything, I bet they're going to

104
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,360
Speaker 6: be the same amount. I bet they have a pretty

105
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 6: good routine. To me, it's probably the focus, the intent,

106
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:54,920
Speaker 6: Hey what are we actually working on here?

107
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 4: You know.

108
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 6: One of the plays was Bryce Terrang who's got some

109
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 6: hardware on his glove, made a play where he was

110
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:06,159
Speaker 6: trying to turn two. But it looked like it wasn't

111
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:07,920
Speaker 6: that great. It looked like it wasn't a great play

112
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 6: because he kind of related to the side, but he

113
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 6: was already setting his feet to try to turn a

114
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 6: tough double play. To me, the conversations were probably about, Okay,

115
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 6: what kind of decisions are we making?

116
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,119
Speaker 4: How are we built? How did we build this team?

117
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,320
Speaker 6: We need to get outs, not all the outs in

118
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 6: one play, but just certain outs. And I think I

119
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,600
Speaker 6: think all that stuff is what you talk about in

120
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 6: those meetings, and without being in that meeting, you never

121
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 6: really know exactly what happened.

122
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 2: Cam are these meetings effective? And moreover, are they more

123
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 2: effective when it's a manager handling the closed door meeting

124
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,040
Speaker 2: or a player having the closed door meeting?

125
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 1: Well before answering that, this immediately makes me think about

126
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:52,720
Speaker 1: Miguil Cabrere and Miguil Cabrere hated team meetings.

127
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:56,040
Speaker 5: I remember making blatantly being open and.

128
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 1: He's like, team meetings are for losers, Like, hey, we

129
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 1: to figure out his players. But I also think there's

130
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:06,120
Speaker 1: an element of you know, the manager having you know,

131
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 1: the ability like a Pat Murphy, right, a guy who

132
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 1: knows that he has the room right, he has everybody's ear,

133
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,279
Speaker 1: he has everybody's trust. I think a guy like Pat

134
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 1: Murphy probably also going guys in this division, in this division,

135
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,280
Speaker 1: we just need to do things right, the little things

136
00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 1: that we're supposed to do, like Cratsy said, and we'll

137
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 1: be fine.

138
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,200
Speaker 5: So I think it's just a call to attention. I

139
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,279
Speaker 5: think they can work depending on the group.

140
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 1: And I think when you look at that type of

141
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 1: group that they have, you lose wi Lea Domas, you

142
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:35,160
Speaker 1: lose your closer, you lose pieces here and there. I

143
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 1: think still trying to figure out who's the captain, right.

144
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,480
Speaker 1: I know probably you will say it's Christian Yellige's, but

145
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 1: I think I think depending on the group, it most

146
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 1: definitely can work, especially when you have a manager, as

147
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 1: we talked about a lot of when you wake up

148
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 1: and you're excited about going to the ballpark and playing

149
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 1: for that guy, I think it most definitely can help

150
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 1: in the right way.

151
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 5: And that's just get keeping guys accountable. Hey, guys, look

152
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:56,360
Speaker 5: in the mirror. At the end of the day.

153
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 1: I can't go back the plays, but we're all better

154
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,599
Speaker 1: than we've shown in here and we're still twelve and twelve.

155
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 5: So I think that's the message for Pat Murphy.

156
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, of course you've talked about Willia Damas who is

157
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 2: now a member of the Giants, talking about Williams, who

158
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 2: of course, is with the New York Yankees, Alana.

159
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 8: We love our pups dearly and we want to shout

160
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 8: out Spot and Tango for taking care of our pups

161
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 8: with their unkibble. They are a game changer.

162
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 2: A game changer is right, Scott. And you know anything

163
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 2: about me, You know that I love dogs and I

164

Speaker 2: want them to live forever. My own rescue pup, Bentley,

165
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 2: is my passion and she loves Spot and Tango.

166
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 3: Thank goodness.

169
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 2: of dog food, you have no idea what's in it.

170
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 3: It's a bunch of fillers.

171
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 2: She loves it. It helps keep her healthy. It's perfectly

Speaker 8: out there code foul at spotantango dot com slash foul.

182
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 2: Let's talk about Brandon Woodruff in terms of some positive

183
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 2: for the Brewers guys.

184
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 3: Kratzy.

185
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 2: Brandon Woodruff pitch five scoreless innings, struck out five for

186
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 2: Triple A Nashville on Thursday. Now, he was just averaging

187
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 2: ninety two miles an hour on that fastball, but coming

188
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 2: back from shoulder surgery, plenty effective in the outings, and

189
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 2: this would be a massive boost to that starting rotation.

190
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 6: I think anybody's a massive boost just because they didn't

191
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 6: start with much depth, and not that the guys that

192
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 6: they have are not good, it's just they need that

193
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:46,199
Speaker 6: extra depth. You can't plug Brandon Woodriff and have him

194
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 6: pitch every five days. I don't see how that's gonna happen.

195
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 6: I don't see how that would be healthy for him,

196
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,439
Speaker 6: especially with this team having playoff aspirations.

197
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 4: So the extra depth.

198
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 6: Not saying they're going to go to a six man rotation,

199
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,080
Speaker 6: but they have guys that are filling in right now

200
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 6: and they're going to wear out that bullpen if they

201
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,839
Speaker 6: continue to fill in with four and five inning guys.

202
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 6: So Big Wu has to be one hundred percent healthy

203
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,439
Speaker 6: when he comes back, And one hundred percent doesn't mean

204
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,680
Speaker 6: that he's going to be throwing ninety seven to ninety

205
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 6: nine like he used to. He may never get back

206
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 6: to There wasn't This wasn't elbow surgery. This was shoulder surgery.

207
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 6: And to have him on the field and have him

208
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,960
Speaker 6: effectively throwing strikes and getting outs in triple A just

209
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 6: one step, and he's one step away from being back

210
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 6: in the big leagues where he'll have to really test

211
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 6: himself to see how he needs to get out against

212
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 6: big league hitters.

213
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,200
Speaker 2: Is there a better division though, cam to kind of

214
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 2: have to figure things out than the NL Central. I

215
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 2: think both of the centrals are always kind of knocking them,

216
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 2: even though we probably shouldn't.

217
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:49,720
Speaker 3: But this is a very winnable decision.

218
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,920
Speaker 2: And when you catch something and nippet right in the

219
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 2: bud here on April twenty fourth, yesterday, I mean, this

220
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:57,960
Speaker 2: is something at where they sit.

221
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 3: I mean, this is very fixable one.

222
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:04,079
Speaker 1: Hundred percent, And this is one thing I continue to say,

223
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:05,560
Speaker 1: and I'm glad you said it, because I don't want

224
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 1: anybody to feel like we're picking on the NL Central.

225
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 5: But each and every year.

226
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 1: When you look at the past few seasons Saint Louis,

227
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: they haven't done much right. They went out and said that, hey,

228
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 1: we're gonna see what these young guys have. We're gonna

229
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:18,960
Speaker 1: let them figure it out. So with that said, hey,

230
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 1: they're not really much of a problem when you look

231
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 1: at the central for me, Pittsburg, they've shown you their hand.

232
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 5: We know what they're gonna do right.

233
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,440
Speaker 1: They're gonna continue to draft guys and try to I

234
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 1: don't even know what they're trying to do right, just compete,

235
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:32,080
Speaker 1: I guess, or just go out and make sure they

236
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 1: can fill the roster for that game. When you look

237
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:36,600
Speaker 1: at it, it's gonna be the Cubs and the Brewers

238
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 1: right each and every year. So, you know, to add

239
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: to Cratsey's point, when you have a guy like Woodrow,

240
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,559
Speaker 1: Woodrow who won, you know, you go back to him

241
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 1: making that press conference. I remember how emotionally he was right.

242
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 1: So one, I'm just happy that he's back on the mound.

243
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 1: I know we would all love to see him throwing

244
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 1: ninth mid you know, upper the mid nineties.

245
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 5: But he's a guy that even when he had the stuff,

246
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 5: he knew how to pitch.

247
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 1: So I think it's more about the grit both of

248
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 1: hey trusting that shoulder again.

249
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 5: But like you said, a lot of this division is

250
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 5: wide open.

251
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 1: So if they can get him back or anybody else

252
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 1: to give them, just any type of length to help

253
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 1: out that bullpen, they have a chance.

254
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:14,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's a pitcher, not a thrower.

255
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,839
Speaker 2: This is the rotation right now, Kratz, Freddy Peralta, of course,

256
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,960
Speaker 2: Tobias Myers, who we had on the show when Fowl

257
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 2: was out there in Arizona. Nice to chat with him,

258
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 2: Chad Patrick, Quinn Priester, and Jose Kintana. Right now, guys,

259
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,319
Speaker 2: the TmrA is a four point two three, not horrendous,

260
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:36,359
Speaker 2: but eleventh worst in the majors. Kratz, do they have enough.

261
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 3: Currently? And obviously we talked about.

262
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 2: Woodruff being a boost, but even with Woody back in

263
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 2: the rotation, do they have enough?

264
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 4: No?

265
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,120
Speaker 6: No, But that's not what the Brewers are built on.

266
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:53,280
Speaker 6: They're built on those guys being enough. It's not enough.

267
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 6: Like you've seen what happened in the last few years

268
00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 6: the Brewers have. I mean they had Burnsy, had Big Wu,

269
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:04,480
Speaker 6: they had Freddie p All starting your first three games

270
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:09,960
Speaker 6: or your playoffs, that's a formidable starting rotation for your playoffs,

271
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:13,440
Speaker 6: and they got bounced, except for in twenty eighteen when

272
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 6: we had Jolie's Chassin Wade Miley, like Big Wu and

273
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 6: Burnsey were in the bullpen. So you sit there and

274
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 6: you go, what are we going to get out of

275
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 6: these guys? This is something that the Brewers have done

276
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 6: the best at. They have done the best at getting

277
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 6: the most out of what they have, and that's why

278
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 6: adding that depth of Big Wu is going to be

279
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 6: huge because it just gives them more quality depth until

280
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 6: Nestor gets back. It gives them more quality depth to

281
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,959
Speaker 6: make sure a guy like Tobias Myers doesn't get tired

282
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,199
Speaker 6: because unfortunately he was a late bloomer coming into the

283
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 6: big leagues. He's starting meaningful games for this Brewer team

284
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 6: and they need somebody to step up. Jose Kintana is

285
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:01,320
Speaker 6: going to be consistent. But one of the things Hosei

286
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 6: Quintana did was he killed the Brewers and now he

287
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,440
Speaker 6: asked doesn't get to face the Brewers, so that's a

288
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:09,240
Speaker 6: knock on him. But all these guys are just there

289
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 6: to compete, and that's why I like this team.

290
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:17,320
Speaker 4: They just can't afford to have guys all year round,

291
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 4: not go past the fifth or sixth in.

292
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 3: The Yeah, this that isn't built on depth. For sure.

293
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:25,079
Speaker 5: Our guys being nice. He's being nice.

294
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:29,200
Speaker 1: Those names you rolled out other than Freddy Peralta right now,

295
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,520
Speaker 1: thirty eight year old cam I'm running to the batrack.

296
00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 5: I don't.

297
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 1: I'm telling you that, I don't care even listen, Nestor,

298
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 1: that's my guy, even when he comes back. I'm running

299
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 1: to the batrack at the end of the day, Cratzy,

300
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 1: You as a hitter, some guys, whether they beat you

301
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 1: or not, you like your chances. So for me, if

302
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:50,559
Speaker 1: I'm an opposing team, I like my chances against everybody

303
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:52,959
Speaker 1: but Freddy Peralta, So that ain't gonna get it done.

304
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 5: I'm sorry.

305
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 2: I love the honesty and yeah, I mean just ask

306
00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 2: Freddy Freeman what he thinks about Nestor Cortez. Freddy Freeman

307
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 2: is the one that made Nesra Cortes become a Milwaukee Brewer,

308
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:04,959
Speaker 2: and then the Yankees teed off on him the first

309
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:06,079
Speaker 2: game of the season.

310
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,600
Speaker 3: Let's put our focus over to the National.

311
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:11,080
Speaker 2: League West, not the Dodgers. Let's talk about the Giants.

312
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 2: The Giants are now second in the division. You guys

313
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 2: with the seventeen and nine record, crats. I don't know

314
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 2: that many folks coming into this season gave the Giants

315
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 2: any sort of flowers, any sort of love. But they're

316
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,479
Speaker 2: getting it done. What have you seen from San Francisco

317
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:27,360
Speaker 2: so far? About you know?

318
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 3: Eleven twelve percent into the season.

319
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,520
Speaker 4: Talking about you know, play who you are? Know who

320
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 4: you are.

321
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 6: Charlie Manuel's other quote was know thy sale, like this

322
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 6: team knows thyself. The only person that doesn't know thyself

323
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 6: is Jung Hu Lee. He is out of this world.

324
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 6: There's gonna be some regression there to have the home

325
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 6: runs that he's hit. He never never came close to

326
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 6: this type of power rate in Korea when he was playing.

327
00:14:57,320 --> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 4: So let's pump the brakes.

328
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 6: I don't I think he's gonna be an MVP, but

329
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 6: he's had an MVP April. But this team picks it.

330
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 6: Look at what they have. Yes, they picked up William Domas,

331
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 6: who's struggling at the plate. His defense last year was

332
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 6: actually down. He was a negative outs above replacement guy.

333
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 6: So you wonder, like, is that gonna come back to

334
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 6: bite him at some point? But he's playing good defense.

335
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 6: You have you have Platinum at third with Matt Chatman,

336
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 6: you have Jung Ju Lee in center field. You don't

337
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 6: have your normal slugs, you have a shortstop playing second

338
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 6: and Tyler Fitzgerald. You don't have your normal slugs all

339
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 6: around the all around the field that are gonna try

340
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 6: to pick the ball and then just go in and hit.

341
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 6: These dudes are picking it, and they're keeping the games close,

342
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,040
Speaker 6: and they're able to win these one run games. That's

343
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 6: that's really what's propped up this awesome start is they're

344
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:54,560
Speaker 6: winning the games that are close. But some people will say, oh,

345
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,400
Speaker 6: that's luck to me. I say, they built this team

346
00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 6: for pitching in defense, and they've come through huge four

347
00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 6: him this year.

348
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 2: And they're making big strides obviously against teams that they

349
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 2: not they shouldn't necessarily be. I mean, you just saw

350
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,440
Speaker 2: the tweet there. They have a tremendous record against teams

351
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:14,880
Speaker 2: above five hundred. They're playing well both at home and

352
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,000
Speaker 2: on the road. You were talking about Matt Chapman and

353
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 2: his defense. Obviously, Sarah Lang's pointing out that he homered

354
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 2: on one hundred point four mile an hour fastball. It's

355
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 2: the fastest pissed a Giants player has homered off of

356
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 2: under pitch tracking. Let me ask you this though, when

357
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 2: it comes to the closer role. Cam Obviously I know

358
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:34,680
Speaker 2: you were not a pitcher. But Doval has done a

359
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:36,800
Speaker 2: good job closing out games for them. In fact, he

360
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 2: closed out each of the three Giant wins during this

361
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 2: four game series. But Bob Melvin, their manager, said the

362
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:45,720
Speaker 2: club hasn't lost faith in Ryan Walker. Do you go

363
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 2: with the hot hand in Doval until he tells you

364
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 2: that he can't do it anymore?

365
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:53,400
Speaker 3: Or do you show Walker.

366
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,560
Speaker 2: Just for his own psyche, in his own confidence and

367
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 2: you put him back out there.

368
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 1: Well, for me, if I was at Bob Melman shoes

369
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:04,160
Speaker 1: before Walker came along, Camillo Duval showed that he could

370
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:05,640
Speaker 1: get a lot of big outs at the end the games.

371
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:05,880
Speaker 4: Right.

372
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 1: You talk about that guy with that plus plus stuff

373
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,920
Speaker 1: plus slider, and for me, his biggest thing was attacking

374
00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:13,399
Speaker 1: the zone right, winning the race to two strikes. I

375
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,200
Speaker 1: think guys like that when he has such at least

376
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:16,920
Speaker 1: stuff sometimes and you know a lot of you watch

377
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,680
Speaker 1: guys like Bruce R. Gratterol when they have that elite stuff,

378
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:21,879
Speaker 1: sometimes they get too fine, right, They want to be

379
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 1: too cute.

380
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 5: So I think for me, when you look.

381
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,880
Speaker 1: At Duval when he's attacking the zone and getting ahead,

382
00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 1: then he can let his other stuff work. So for me,

383
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,200
Speaker 1: I think you have a good problem if you're Bob

384
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 1: Melvine when you look at what the Giants have done

385
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,200
Speaker 1: and how they played, I think this is a great

386
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,719
Speaker 1: problem to have, and I think you have an opportunity

387
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 1: to kind of work Walker back in right, figure out

388
00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:43,920
Speaker 1: situations that you can put him in where he'll have success,

389
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 1: and then if there's an opportunity where Duval is down,

390
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:47,360
Speaker 1: then he gets.

391
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 5: That opportunity to go back and close.

392
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:50,919
Speaker 1: But I want to touch on one part as far

393
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 1: as the Giant Giants going and a lot of you

394
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:54,720
Speaker 1: said that a lot of people we didn't think that

395
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:55,479
Speaker 1: they would be here.

396
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:57,680
Speaker 5: What I think one person that we're.

397
00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,720
Speaker 1: Not talking about and Will I want to allow this

398
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 1: segment to go by without saying Buster Posey knows baseball

399
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,639
Speaker 1: right as analytics say you shouldn't have this guy or

400
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,080
Speaker 1: that guy to add the Cratsy's points. What they have

401
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 1: done is they kind of somewhat took a model of

402
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,200
Speaker 1: when they were winning championships. Let's go get a lineup

403
00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 1: with guys that can stretch you out, that can have

404
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,920
Speaker 1: quality at bats, that can put pressure on the opposing

405
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,600
Speaker 1: pitching staff and get into the bullpen throughout a series

406
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 1: that actually taxes that bullpen.

407
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:24,879
Speaker 5: So we're in better shape going down the stretch.

408
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: And then you have guys like Matt Chapman who's being

409
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 1: gold platinum, but now his baddest.

410
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 5: Catching up to the defense.

411
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:33,359
Speaker 1: So when you see that and my favorite player, Cratsy,

412
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,520
Speaker 1: when you talk about him, please put some respect on

413
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:39,919
Speaker 1: his name. It's it's grandson of the win. Okay, he

414
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,639
Speaker 1: is phenomenal. I think he can't keep up this pace

415
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:45,120
Speaker 1: as far as the hit two goals. He's showing an

416
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 1: ability to make adjustments against lefties right and control the zone,

417
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,399
Speaker 1: and we just need to see him healthy. His biggest issue,

418
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 1: I think, even in Korea and coming over here was

419
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:54,840
Speaker 1: being on the field. So I think the Giants have

420
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:56,879
Speaker 1: a lot of good problems. And last week, when you

421
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,360
Speaker 1: look at a staff, a pitching staff, Lina, and you've

422
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,200
Speaker 1: been in that divisi, you covered them for a while.

423
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,680
Speaker 1: When I look at the pitchy staff of Erlander, web

424
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:08,600
Speaker 1: Hicks is starting to look like a legit starter. You

425
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 1: have some you have some serious formidable guys. Who hey,

426
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 1: if we get this game to the back back end

427
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,760
Speaker 1: seven eighth with the lead, we like our chances. So

428
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:19,720
Speaker 1: who would have thought we would be talking about a

429
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:21,880
Speaker 1: couple of weeks from now, a week from now, that

430
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:24,600
Speaker 1: there'd be a division battle for first place and it's

431
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 1: not the Dodgers.

432
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I don't like it.

433
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:31,200
Speaker 2: Justin Verlander's seventy eight years old. None of that, None

434
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 2: of that, Cameron Maven. But it is it's fun to

435
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,840
Speaker 2: have a good divisional race. There's four teams right now

436
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:39,359
Speaker 2: in the top five in terms of some offensive numbers

437
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 2: that are pretty good.

438
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 3: All four of those are in the NL West.

439
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 8: Kratz, do you like spending an hour on grocery shopping?

440

Speaker 2: Let's talk about Kratz's Phillies for just a second. Matt

463
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 2: Gilb tweeting this guys Phillies. Through twenty five games in

464
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 2: twenty and twenty four, they had one hundred and eight

465
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 2: runs twenty seven home runs. This season, three more runs,

466
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:57,719
Speaker 2: but six fewer long balls.

467
00:20:57,840 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 3: Krats, we know you love this club. I love the

468
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:01,639
Speaker 3: field as well. What do you make of the numbers?

469
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,280
Speaker 6: I think it's showing that they're pretty much right around

470
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:08,919
Speaker 6: where they were last year. I mean, six homers is

471
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:10,840
Speaker 6: what it is. They're scoring the same amount of runs

472
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 6: last year. They were just up by a ton in

473
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:17,359
Speaker 6: the division because they weren't giving up any runs. The

474
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:21,600
Speaker 6: starting staff has been above average. I mean you have

475
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 6: Zach Wheeler, Aaron Nola's kind of started out slow here,

476
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:29,199
Speaker 6: actually really started out slow, but Taiwan Walker's had a

477
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 6: few good starts. There's a lot of positive in this

478
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:35,080
Speaker 6: starting rotation. The bullpen has been putrid and they have

479
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 6: been giving up tons of runs. And that is the

480
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 6: stark difference of why this team isn't seven eight games

481
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 6: above five hundred at this point, and there I think

482
00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 6: one game, I think they're thirteen to twelve. So it's

483
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 6: something that they need to continue to swing. For me,

484
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 6: it's cutting down on the strikeouts from the lineup that

485
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 6: they've had so far this year, which is huge, and

486
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 6: I think we'll pay dividends once they make the playoffs.

487
00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 2: Cam how much do you think the Phillies bullpen is

488
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:04,120
Speaker 2: missing the services of Jeff Hoffman. He was an All

489
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 2: Star now he's with Toronto, And to Kratz's point, the

490
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:08,440
Speaker 2: bullpens struggling.

491
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 5: One hundred percent.

492
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 1: You know, they lost Jeff Hoffman, who Soto the lefty,

493
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,680
Speaker 1: I know, he's you know, was very erratic at times,

494
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:19,800
Speaker 1: but again another big arm that they relied on.

495
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 2: Big deal or no big deal, guys, Rob Bradford. This

496
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:26,080
Speaker 2: on X, according to Baseball Savant Raphael Devers of the

497
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:28,879
Speaker 2: Red Sox, has swung and missed at forty four pitches

498
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,720
Speaker 2: in what is considered the heart of the zone. The

499
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,920
Speaker 2: next most in all of baseball is the Twins Matt Wallner,

500
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,320
Speaker 2: who has done it twenty five times. Should we be

501
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:39,200
Speaker 2: concerned at Cameron Mabon?

502
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:42,280
Speaker 5: For me, we should.

503
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:45,159
Speaker 1: And I'm going to tell you guys something that the

504
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 1: normal baseball player, right, the average baseball player like myself,

505
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 1: goes through.

506
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 5: And I'm sure Kratzy can attest to this.

507
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:54,399
Speaker 1: There were times in my career line where you play,

508
00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:56,639
Speaker 1: you go through the off season, go through screen training,

509
00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:58,400
Speaker 1: and you do everything, you do, what you've been doing

510
00:22:58,440 --> 00:22:59,919
Speaker 1: since you're a little kid, and then.

511
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:00,880
Speaker 5: One day you wake up.

512
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 1: Now, all of a sudden, you look down and it's

513
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:04,960
Speaker 1: like a scene out of Space Jam. You feel like

514
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,680
Speaker 1: the monk Stars stole your powers. And that's what rotheyelle

515
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 1: Devers is going through. You look down and you go,

516
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:13,000
Speaker 1: I forgot how to play baseball?

517
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:13,960
Speaker 5: What is going on?

518
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 1: But what happens is you're usually seeing the guys like myself, right,

519
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:18,480
Speaker 1: guys like crazy.

520
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 5: You don't see the guys like Raphaeld Devers, the guys

521
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 5: that we have considered early on in their careers, is

522
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 5: one of the elite hitters of our game, right, the

523
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,800
Speaker 5: elite young guy that came out of the you know,

524
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,960
Speaker 5: came out of the minor leagues, you know, never broke.

525
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,680
Speaker 1: Stride and tore up the league. He's going through something

526
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:36,720
Speaker 1: that I don't think he's ever dealt with. So it's

527
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,600
Speaker 1: going to be important for people around him to really

528
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 1: picking them up. And this is where character is so important, right,

529
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,639
Speaker 1: Having guys that aren't just there worrying about their own

530
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 1: personal stats. You got to have somebody rubbing this guy

531
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:52,119
Speaker 1: on the back. Even the superstars need a pick me

532
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,680
Speaker 1: up sometimes. So what he's going through is what us

533
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:56,080
Speaker 1: normal guys have been through.

534
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 2: Ye all right, guys, welcome back here, and we're spreading

535
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 2: some rumors, and by rumors, it always seems like Nolan

536
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 2: Aronado is in the midst of them.

537
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 3: This poor guy, whether is he going to be traded?

538
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 3: Is he going to stay?

539
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:14,560
Speaker 2: Is he not going to stay? But let's talk about this.

540
00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 2: Has Nolan Aronado played himself back onto the trading block?

541
00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:22,960
Speaker 2: Why early returns may be good for the Cardinals? So

542
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 2: obviously the Cardinals and Nolan Ronado have it's not been

543
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:30,399
Speaker 2: the most amazing relationship. But you know what, if they

544
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 2: continue to play well, perhaps he will be part of

545
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,960
Speaker 2: their future for a while. So roughly one month into

546
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,520
Speaker 2: the season, Kratz Arnatto is still a Cardinal. However, the

547
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 2: possibility that he'll eventually be traded out of the new remains.

548
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:46,000
Speaker 2: MLB dot Com conducted a question and answer with Ronato

549
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 2: that included the following relevant exchange. So MLB dot com says,

550
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,400
Speaker 2: you are the veteran of this club. Do you think

551
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:55,120
Speaker 2: you will be with the Cardinals to guide these guys?

552
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:57,320
Speaker 3: Ronado? I don't know. We'll see.

553
00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:59,000
Speaker 2: We are playing hard right now. I think we are

554
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:00,840
Speaker 2: doing a good job. Still have to win a little

555
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,480
Speaker 2: bit more, compete a little bit better. Hopefully we can

556
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 2: get on a winning streak here. If not, I assume

557
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:07,920
Speaker 2: they would want to let these young guys run and go.

558
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:09,719
Speaker 2: I know that you don't feel that I'm in the

559
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 2: way of that. But at the same time, sooner or later,

560
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,000
Speaker 2: you have to make a decision. I don't mean this

561
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:17,480
Speaker 2: in a bad way, but I'm not part. If I'm

562
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:19,560
Speaker 2: not part of their future plans, I'm older. That's just

563
00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 2: part of it. When I say future plans, I'm talking

564
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:26,080
Speaker 2: about the next five years plus. I understand that hopefully

565
00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,119
Speaker 2: we are winning, so we can add at the deadline.

566
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 2: If not, I'm assuming some questions will arise. So Krats,

567
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 2: let me ask you about this, because I mean, father

568
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 2: time catches up to the best of us, all of us,

569
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:43,560
Speaker 2: and Nolan Aronado is an intelligent man, and he understands that.

570
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 2: You know, he's probably at the end of his career.

571
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 2: Do you see this man as a part of the Cardinals.

572
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:51,879
Speaker 2: Let's just say at the deadline.

573
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:56,760
Speaker 6: No's he's gone before him. There's too many teams that

574
00:25:56,800 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 6: struggle at third base. And he's too good of a player.

575
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,240
Speaker 6: He was too good of a player before he started.

576
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 6: I think his ops plus's one twenty six this season.

577
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 6: He's too good of a like. Let's just say analytically,

578
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:15,000
Speaker 6: people say, oh, he's down now, he's not the third

579
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:18,160
Speaker 6: in the MVP voting. Like he was in twenty twenty two.

580
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:21,200
Speaker 6: Like that's not that long ago, that's not that many

581
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:23,760
Speaker 6: seasons ago. He's an All Star in twenty three. He

582
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,239
Speaker 6: had a down year. But let's say you think he

583
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,400
Speaker 6: is his down season last year. He's just a completely

584
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:32,639
Speaker 6: average OPS plus one oh two hitter.

585
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:37,040
Speaker 4: He's still giving you Gold Glove defense. There's very few

586
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:40,640
Speaker 4: teams that will not take him by the trade deadline

587
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:46,240
Speaker 4: because not many teams have elite defense and the upside

588
00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 4: of a lot of success at the plate when you

589
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:54,400
Speaker 4: have a hitter like Nolan aernatdo. To me, I think

590
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:57,040
Speaker 4: he gets traded. You look at a team like the Phillies.

591
00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:00,639
Speaker 4: If Alec Bohm continues to struggle, they want to add.

592
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:03,119
Speaker 4: The Cardinals seem like they're going to be eating a

593
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 4: lot of that contract. And I think the Cardinals are

594
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:09,960
Speaker 4: motivated to move him to get other guys time, and

595
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:13,800
Speaker 4: Nolan's motivated to move. He wants to go somewhere else.

596
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:15,560
Speaker 6: And I think if you add him into a lineup

597
00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:18,120
Speaker 6: I just say that Phillies because that you know it's

598
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:21,560
Speaker 6: a possibility. But you add him into a lineup with

599
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 6: really good hitters, he becomes a better hitter. Because the

600
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 6: pressure isn't all on him. They don't just slot him

601
00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:29,199
Speaker 6: right into the three spot. He might hit fifth or

602
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:31,959
Speaker 6: sixth in that lineup, depending on the who they're facing

603
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:32,360
Speaker 6: that day.

604
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:35,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, he doesn't have to be the guy in other places.

605
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 2: Cam the team said that they want to run and

606
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:40,919
Speaker 2: go with the younger players. If Nolan Aronado is there

607
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,600
Speaker 2: at third base, Nolan Gorman doesn't get the chance to

608
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,200
Speaker 2: be able to play every single day Right now. He's

609
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,399
Speaker 2: getting some spots starts at second base, but he's not

610
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:53,879
Speaker 2: full time at third. Do you foresee a situation where

611
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:57,280
Speaker 2: Aronado is with this club past the deadline?

612
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:01,399
Speaker 5: Yankees, Phillies Orioles.

613
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,119
Speaker 1: Those are the three teams I think will be great

614
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:07,280
Speaker 1: places for Nolan especially. You talk about a guy later

615
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,160
Speaker 1: in his career, and he laid it out. He pretty

616
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,880
Speaker 1: much laid out for you what he believes he still has.

617
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 1: I still believe I have five years left, right. I

618
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:15,800
Speaker 1: think that's why he threw that number. I think he

619
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:19,000
Speaker 1: still believes in the right situation. Like Kratz, he said,

620
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:23,200
Speaker 1: watching his boy Goldie go to New York, right, seems reinvigorated,

621
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:24,960
Speaker 1: seems like he's got a little bit more juice than

622
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 1: he had trying to be the older guys that try

623
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:30,640
Speaker 1: to lead the way and set the tone and set

624
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:34,160
Speaker 1: the example. Sometimes for older guys that becomes exhausting as well.

625
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:36,879
Speaker 1: So I'm with Cratzy. I think there is a situation

626
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:40,040
Speaker 1: of very much a situation where I think even him

627
00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:43,080
Speaker 1: sitting back watching some of these veteran guys having success

628
00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:46,000
Speaker 1: in places with other veteran pieces around them where it

629
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,960
Speaker 1: isn't all on him, I think this is a situation

630
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 1: where they will and they should be William to move

631
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 1: on in Aaronado and again, for me, the ideal situation,

632
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:56,720
Speaker 1: if you look at what the Cardinals have been trying

633
00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:59,440
Speaker 1: to do, I think Baltimore is the right place to call.

634
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 5: I think Baltimore also needs to come off of some of.

635
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:04,959
Speaker 1: Those prospects and realize that, hey, we got all these

636
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 1: prospects and all these pieces, but you still need veteran

637
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:10,800
Speaker 1: guys to win baseball games. And I think they're seeing

638
00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:13,920
Speaker 1: that right now that prospects don't always equate to wins

639
00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 1: at the big league level.

640
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:17,720
Speaker 2: It'll be interesting to see where the Baltimore Orioles are

641
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 2: because they are desperately in need of some starting pitching too.

642
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 2: They may not even be in the postseason conversation, come

643
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 2: trade the deadline?

644
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:25,240
Speaker 3: What do we think about this? Gentleman?

645
00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:28,200
Speaker 2: Grant McCauley on X another scorelessenning tonight with triple A

646
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 2: Gwinette for the Braves. And Craig Kimberl, who has now

647
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 2: appeared in back to back games for the first time.

648
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 2: Overall the veteran closer, he's been effective five in an inning,

649
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 2: five and the third innings rather zero hits, zero runs,

650
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 2: just one free pass. He has seven k's. Do we

651
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 2: see Craig Kimbrel coming up soon?

652
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,880
Speaker 4: Kratz, he'll be up soon.

653
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,120
Speaker 6: I think he probably has some type of out and

654
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,880
Speaker 6: numbers like that. We'll get him a job. He'll put

655
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,680
Speaker 6: up numbers like that in stretches in the big leagues.

656
00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 6: Can he be your closer?

657
00:29:58,880 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 1: No?

658
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 6: I don't think teams. I don't think the Braves are

659
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 6: even going to look to put him in a closer.

660
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:04,840
Speaker 6: Can't he close games?

661
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 4: Yes?

662
00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 6: Minor leagues guys swinging a little more so, those walks,

663
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 6: how much of that? How much of those outs are

664
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 6: in the zone? That's what I would look at. But

665
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 6: he's going to be up soon.

666
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:19,040
Speaker 5: Agree?

667
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:19,800
Speaker 3: Those games.

668
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,720
Speaker 2: But I think the postseason is where you know where

669
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:24,120
Speaker 2: you question it.

670
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:26,960
Speaker 1: Well, you know, I think the biggest thing line is

671
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 1: trying to find somebody to help them get to the postseason, right.

672
00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:31,120
Speaker 1: I think that's a big part of it as well,

673
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:33,600
Speaker 1: as you're right. I think with the Braves you have

674
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 1: to crawl before you walk. So I think they're looking

675
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 1: for somebody that can give them some lymp in the

676
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:40,360
Speaker 1: back of that bullpen, or maybe even in the middle

677
00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 1: endings of that bullpen.

678
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 5: Like Cratsy said he did.

679
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 1: The stuff still plays, right, Is it elite like it

680
00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 1: once was? No, but the stuff is still there. I

681
00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:50,840
Speaker 1: think Craig now, I think Craig is still trying to

682
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:52,680
Speaker 1: figure out how to pitch with the stuff being.

683
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:53,360
Speaker 5: Down somewhat now.

684
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:54,720
Speaker 1: He used to get away with a lot of just

685
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:58,120
Speaker 1: attacking guys on his own dominating with the stuff.

686
00:30:58,320 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 5: But I think he's figuring out a way to pitch.

687
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 8: Tod Father, I want to pull a very expensive card

688
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:07,720
Speaker 8: out of a pack, very difficult to do and very expensive.

689
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:10,400
Speaker 8: I can't pay for it, Okay, how could I acquire

690
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 8: that card?

691
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:13,800

00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:00,640
Speaker 3: All right, guys.

711
00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:03,520
Speaker 2: So Dan Hayes MLB, talking about Carlos Correa, says he

712
00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:06,240
Speaker 2: feels good but isn't getting the results he wants. Asked

713
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 2: if he's dealing with any pain or discomfort. I'm dealing

714
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:11,800
Speaker 2: with my swing sucks. Right now, we've all been there, right,

715
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 2: That's the only thing I'm dealing with. I don't feel

716
00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:15,240
Speaker 2: too far off. It's not like I'm going out and

717
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:18,040
Speaker 2: striking out three times a night. There's been some good contacts,

718
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:21,400
Speaker 2: some good AB's. It's just the consistency is not quite there,

719
00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:23,520
Speaker 2: and that's what we're trying to find. I would imagine

720
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 2: cam will start with you. That's got to be an

721
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 2: awful feeling. You said it earlier. It's like an alien

722
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:30,440
Speaker 2: comes and takes away your ability to play baseball. What's

723
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:31,200
Speaker 2: he going through?

724
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know again, a guy like Carlos, who also

725
00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:36,920
Speaker 1: we've seen him have some struggles in the past, right,

726
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 1: he has hasn't been doing one of these guys that

727
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,000
Speaker 1: we talked about who just year after your knocks to

728
00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:41,880
Speaker 1: cover off the ball.

729
00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 5: But we know he's a postseason menace.

730
00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:46,680
Speaker 1: But I think guys like Carlos Carlos, I think it's

731
00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:49,760
Speaker 1: as simple as what he said, taking accountability my swing

732
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:51,600
Speaker 1: is not there right now, but also getting back to

733
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:53,920
Speaker 1: what you do well right. And I think it's as

734
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:56,239
Speaker 1: simple as when I was with Houston. One thing that

735
00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 1: they constantly did month after month they checked the heat chart. Hey,

736
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:02,960
Speaker 1: can this is where you handle the ball extremely well.

737
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:04,960
Speaker 1: This is where you do the most damage. And at

738
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 1: times as players, sometimes we get away from our strengths

739
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:10,720
Speaker 1: and we worry about what the pitcher does really well, right,

740
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:12,960
Speaker 1: we forget about what we do great, so we start

741
00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:15,120
Speaker 1: chasing their strength. So I think it's as simple as

742
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 1: for Carlos Byron, you know, get the ball close to

743
00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:20,400
Speaker 1: you and look the do damage in the middle of

744
00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:22,680
Speaker 1: the field. And I know it sounds simple here when

745
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:26,960
Speaker 1: you know from my couch seat, but I think that's

746
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 1: the plan, right, and also understand it and say, you know,

747
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 1: one of the best guys that I think I've been around,

748
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:35,080
Speaker 1: Frankie Lindor, he always talked about sacrificing at bats when

749
00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:37,560
Speaker 1: things aren't going well. So I think that's the situation

750
00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:39,600
Speaker 1: right now where you gonna hate the next ten to

751
00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 1: twenty at bats. I'm gonna try to do this. I'm

752
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:44,160
Speaker 1: gonna try to go low line drives back up the

753
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:47,720
Speaker 1: middle and see what happens, and then you start to

754
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:49,240
Speaker 1: see if you can gain a little bit of ground.

755
00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:51,360
Speaker 1: So I think he has a plan. Carlos is a

756
00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:55,000
Speaker 1: cage rat. He's always in there trying to figure things out.

757
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 1: So I think if he continues to keep that mentality.

758
00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:00,440
Speaker 1: I think it'll you know, it'll pan out when it's

759
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:03,240
Speaker 1: all said and done.

760
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:05,280
Speaker 3: It's gotta be tough, Eric, right.

761
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,719
Speaker 6: It's an opportunity to keep learning. Look, he's not aged out.

762
00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:11,320
Speaker 6: It's not like you're looking at him like short stops

763
00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:14,520
Speaker 6: at thirty four years old. Now he's thirty years old,

764
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,759
Speaker 6: like Carlos will be fine. He's had dips. I was

765
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:19,960
Speaker 6: looking at the stats the one year when he was

766
00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:23,239
Speaker 6: you know, he had a two thirty average. Then last

767
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 6: year got back up to three ten with a nine

768
00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:26,160
Speaker 6: oh five.

769
00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:26,879
Speaker 4: Ops.

770
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:29,080
Speaker 6: If you're asking me if Carlos Korey is going to

771
00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:33,080
Speaker 6: figure it out, I'm gonna say yes ten times out

772
00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:35,440
Speaker 6: of ten until the end of the season and he

773
00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:36,479
Speaker 6: didn't figure it out.

774
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:39,840
Speaker 2: Here's a little something that first team Ken Rosenthal ever covered.

775
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:43,520
Speaker 2: The Orioles rotations. Eer is back below six. I'm not

776
00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:45,799
Speaker 2: sure that we should be excited about it, but it's

777
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,359
Speaker 2: no longer the worse than Major League Baseball. It's now

778
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:52,880
Speaker 2: five point eight two, ranked twenty ninth behind the Colorado Rockies.

779
00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:55,480
Speaker 2: My word, I thought the Orioles Eric Kratz were going

780
00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:58,040
Speaker 2: to be a lot better than this. However, their starting

781
00:34:58,120 --> 00:34:59,320
Speaker 2: rotation is decimated.

782
00:34:59,360 --> 00:34:59,759
Speaker 5: We know that.

783
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:04,160
Speaker 6: Yes, only if like you could find some starting rotation

784
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:07,000
Speaker 6: in the off season, only if you could have gone

785
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:11,279
Speaker 6: out and gotten I mean, Hazus Lizardo. On the chat,

786
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:14,320
Speaker 6: we talked about different people that you know, the Orioles

787
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:17,560
Speaker 6: went tried to go after. It didn't happen. Hey, you

788
00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:20,560
Speaker 6: know what, it's tough. They went after I'm pretty sure

789
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:23,239
Speaker 6: they went after Burns and gave him you know, four

790
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 6: year was it one hundred and fifty?

791
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:29,360
Speaker 3: They did go after him. He just wanted to be

792
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:29,920
Speaker 3: in Arizona.

793
00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:31,560
Speaker 4: That was in Arizona.

794
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:35,920
Speaker 6: But they made they made a high aav offer. You

795
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,160
Speaker 6: know what, when it's not working out, you have to

796
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:40,120
Speaker 6: pivot and be able to make the next adjustment.

797
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:41,160
Speaker 4: This is their window.

798
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:44,279
Speaker 6: And never am I going to say it was a

799
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:45,440
Speaker 6: failed off season.

800
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:47,359
Speaker 4: But they didn't do good.

801
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,799
Speaker 6: Like to me, they really they They fell on their

802
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:53,200
Speaker 6: face when they were trying to make these offers. And

803
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,319
Speaker 6: it's kind of coming to fruition now. I think they'll

804
00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:59,480
Speaker 6: have some I think they'll have some positive steps from

805
00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:03,200
Speaker 6: their bullpen starting rotation. It's tough when you lose your

806
00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:05,960
Speaker 6: number one guy, it's tough and.

807
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,600
Speaker 1: I won't let them forget about this. I'm sorry you

808
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:11,160
Speaker 1: got all those prospects of Plethorugh, you're doing a great

809
00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:15,520
Speaker 1: job as an organization going to get them. Garrett Crochet's

810
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:19,880
Speaker 1: right there, like, you know, if you don't get Burns,

811
00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,279
Speaker 1: give up a couple of those guys, go get a

812
00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:25,400
Speaker 1: guy like Garrett Crochet. So I'm with you, Cratzy. They

813
00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:27,680
Speaker 1: kind of you know, you made your bet and you

814
00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:28,560
Speaker 1: kind of have to lay in.

815
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:32,440
Speaker 2: It wasn't Walker Ruler right there, wasn't Sandy ol Contrara

816
00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 2: right there.

817
00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:34,000
Speaker 3: I mean, weren't these.

818
00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 5: Other Flaherty's out there? I mean, and these are guys

819
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:39,080
Speaker 5: that I don't think it.

820
00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:40,720
Speaker 1: Would have cost you that much when you talk about

821
00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:43,840
Speaker 1: those names, right they they're not warning what Corbyn Burns

822
00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:48,279
Speaker 1: was asking for. So there were pieces out there, the

823
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:49,279
Speaker 1: prospects a lot.

824
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:50,919
Speaker 4: Yep, it'd be too late.

825
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:54,279
Speaker 2: They may not make the posts or they may not

826
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:55,719
Speaker 2: you know, they might be out of it at the

827
00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 2: trade deadline, you guys.

828
00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:02,120
Speaker 1: And listen and nobody's talking about this, and it's early

829
00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:06,359
Speaker 1: the rays. They're not going anywhere. They're not I know,

830
00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:08,160
Speaker 1: I know it got a lot going on, But when

831
00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:09,440
Speaker 1: you just look at the construction.

832
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:11,720
Speaker 5: Is what they always do. I'm with you, Alana.

833
00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:14,520
Speaker 1: They've got the Orioles have some holes to fill because

834
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:15,960
Speaker 1: the Rays aren't going anywhere either.

835
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:26,719
Speaker 2: All right, time out for the hot cornter the Texas

836
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:30,959
Speaker 2: Rangers versus the Athletics. What are we doing here? Jacob

837
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:33,600
Speaker 2: Wilson gets his first walk off? Is that exciting to you, guys?

838
00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:38,160
Speaker 5: Yes? I think his setup is more exciting than anything.

839
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:38,480
Speaker 4: Is that?

840
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:40,440
Speaker 3: Why is that?

841
00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:40,719
Speaker 5: Is he?

842
00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:41,040
Speaker 4: Like?

843
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:43,319
Speaker 5: Does that crazy? Who is that? That? Is that? The

844
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,120
Speaker 5: he hits crazy?

845
00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:51,120
Speaker 6: He hits, he hits what you said it, kras he

846
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:52,520
Speaker 6: hits you said it.

847
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:55,120
Speaker 1: Don't worry about hat looks. Worry about what? Is he

848
00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:57,279
Speaker 1: getting a job done? And he is getting the job done.

849
00:37:57,719 --> 00:37:59,279
Speaker 3: I mean, here's something that's fun.

850
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:03,000
Speaker 2: He recorded the a's final walkoff at the Oakland Coliseum. Guys,

851
00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:05,799
Speaker 2: so September twenty fourth of last season. And then he

852
00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:08,200
Speaker 2: has the first walk off in Sacramento.

853
00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:10,360
Speaker 3: I mean that's kind of special.

854
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 5: Hey, don't, young fella.

855
00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:15,120
Speaker 1: I know they love we love homers in a game,

856
00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:17,960
Speaker 1: but there was once upon a time when players did

857
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:20,920
Speaker 1: care about average. And and again, I want to stay

858
00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:22,799
Speaker 1: here too long, but average says a lot about a guy.

859
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:23,440
Speaker 5: Right lets me know.

860
00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:25,080
Speaker 1: He can get a guy in, he can get a

861
00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:27,360
Speaker 1: guy over, he can come through in a big situation.

862
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:29,160
Speaker 5: So you know, I love what he's gonna do.

863
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,080
Speaker 1: And guys like that the power will continue to come

864
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:34,200
Speaker 1: once they figured things out and realize, hey, I can

865
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:35,640
Speaker 1: take more chances.

866
00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:40,920
Speaker 3: Is he your Rookie of the Year carendidate? Oh yeah, sure, Yeah.

867
00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:44,719
Speaker 6: For sure he's He's Luis arrives from from the right

868
00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:47,880
Speaker 6: side of the plate and he's a rookie. So you

869
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:50,640
Speaker 6: can't not have him as a candidate. Will he win,

870
00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:53,440
Speaker 6: You're gonna have to look at something like three forty

871
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:56,040
Speaker 6: three point fifty for him to win. What he's doing

872
00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:58,920
Speaker 6: right now awesome, And he's in three point thirty with

873
00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:02,399
Speaker 6: ops play us at one twenty eight. He's got four

874
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:06,319
Speaker 6: punch outs in ninety five at bats is ninety nine

875
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:11,280
Speaker 6: plate appearances. I'm sorry, ninety five plate appearances, four punch outs.

876
00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:13,839
Speaker 6: He adds a dynamic to the game that I don't

877
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:18,600
Speaker 6: think all pitchers are able to combat. They're just looking

878
00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,520
Speaker 6: to strike dudes out, and he's not going to strike out.

879
00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:23,759
Speaker 6: He's got a lot going on with the swing and

880
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:26,280
Speaker 6: he makes contact it's not always barrels.

881
00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:28,879
Speaker 4: He makes contact. He is a pro hitter and he's

882
00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:30,160
Speaker 4: shown that early in his career.

883
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:32,319
Speaker 3: Here Eric, That's what Cam was saying.

884
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,680
Speaker 2: It was like back in the day, average mattered, right,

885
00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:37,440
Speaker 2: Putting the ball in play mattered, you know, hitting the content,

886
00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:40,040
Speaker 2: pitching the contact mattered. And it almost seems like this

887
00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:42,440
Speaker 2: kid doesn't want to strikeout. It's like back in the

888
00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 2: day it was an embarrassing act if you struck out. Yes,

889
00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:47,960
Speaker 2: I mean, look at the way Tony Gwynn used to play,

890
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:49,480
Speaker 2: you know, and it's.

891
00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:53,080
Speaker 5: Like, oh, look at you. It matters they win.

892
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:57,920
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, I mean it's like now there's like three outcomes, right, strikeout, walk,

893
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:02,160
Speaker 2: home run. Like now seems like he plays like in

894
00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:04,120
Speaker 2: a different era. That feels like, you know, like you

895
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:05,600
Speaker 2: should have been playing a long time ago.

896
00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:08,520
Speaker 5: Yes he does. Amen, I love that.

897
00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:10,279
Speaker 1: You're right, But again, look at the teams that have

898
00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:13,840
Speaker 1: won your You're Dodgers, the Braves, go back to the past.

899
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 5: The Diamondbacks who have been in it, what do they do.

900
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,160
Speaker 5: They find a way to manufacture runs, right, They went

901
00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:21,120
Speaker 5: back to that old school brand of baseball.

902
00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:22,759
Speaker 1: We don't have to wait for the home run, so

903
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,080
Speaker 1: that guy, that young man. I think he's a breath

904
00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:27,040
Speaker 1: of fresh air to the game and how it's kind

905
00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:28,840
Speaker 1: of starting to trend back to the game that we

906
00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:29,279
Speaker 1: used to.

907
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:32,920
Speaker 2: Love, yeah, or the game that, as the purist would say,

908
00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:35,239
Speaker 2: the game that when it was played the right way?

909
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:37,799
Speaker 2: All right, coming up, now, don't you don't think so, Eric,

910
00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:38,480
Speaker 2: you don't like that?

911
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:39,680
Speaker 3: All right, that's fine.

912
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:42,160
Speaker 4: No, the game's different. The game is different.

913
00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:42,520
Speaker 5: Dudes.

914
00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:45,279
Speaker 6: Dudes would like cut the ball to make it move.

915
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:48,359
Speaker 6: Now now dudeses throw a billion miles an hour they

916
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:50,399
Speaker 6: have to make the game is.

917
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:52,960
Speaker 5: Just it is.

918
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:55,279
Speaker 1: But what's not different is going out and finding guys

919
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:57,840
Speaker 1: who can put the ball in play, who can move runners.

920
00:40:58,160 --> 00:40:59,920
Speaker 5: That part of the game should still be.

921
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:02,600
Speaker 2: But the problem is they don't get They don't get

922
00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:03,600
Speaker 2: paid though those are.

923
00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:05,840
Speaker 1: The got you know, but guess what that get A

924
00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:12,080
Speaker 1: lot of how many rings you got exactly exactly when

925
00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:14,600
Speaker 1: you when everybody gets paid?

926
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:18,480
Speaker 5: I might not, but everybody gets paid when you win.

927
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:21,640
Speaker 2: You know what I think they should do when you

928
00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:24,279
Speaker 2: go to the World Series. I think broadcasters should get

929
00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:25,960
Speaker 2: a full full World series.

930
00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:34,160
Speaker 5: Share a ring, ring ring it for sure.

931
00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:36,879
Speaker 3: Listen, I got the ring, but I didn't get the share.

932
00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:38,759
Speaker 2: I'll take I'll take the share over the ring, and

933
00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:40,239
Speaker 2: then I'll take the share and go buy a ring.

934
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 5: No, give me a share.

935
00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:56,840
Speaker 3: We are slapping some hands.

936
00:41:56,840 --> 00:41:59,759
Speaker 2: We want to give our flowers to Hortes Soled who

937
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:03,319
Speaker 2: read ten years of Major League Baseball service time. He

938
00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:06,560
Speaker 2: is fully vested in his pension. That is an achievement

939
00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:09,960
Speaker 2: that is so difficult to do. You guys, only seven

940
00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:14,000
Speaker 2: percent of players who get to the majors get to

941
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:17,240
Speaker 2: ten years of actual service time. And you are both

942
00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:19,960
Speaker 2: guys that have played this game for a very long time.

943
00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:23,000
Speaker 2: You know how hard this game is. What does that

944
00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:27,160
Speaker 2: mean for a player when they get to ten years accomplishment?

945
00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:28,919
Speaker 4: It is to accomplished. It's huge.

946
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:31,759
Speaker 6: That's hard to get to because you don't know if

947
00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:33,360
Speaker 6: you ever get a day in the big leagues, let

948
00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:35,880
Speaker 6: alone stay in the big leagues. It comes out to

949
00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:41,399
Speaker 6: basically three guys from every two teams. It's like one

950
00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:45,080
Speaker 6: point eight guys per team, so it's essentially three guys

951
00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:47,680
Speaker 6: from every So every team you watch, the twenty six

952
00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:53,160
Speaker 6: guys that are on that roster, only three make it.

953
00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:53,880
Speaker 3: It's incredible.

954
00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:55,960
Speaker 5: It is incredible.

955
00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:58,239
Speaker 1: Some of my favorite players that I grew up watching

956
00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:00,239
Speaker 1: didn't make it ten years and you'd be surprised. You

957
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:02,680
Speaker 1: you look back and you go why they didn't and

958
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:05,480
Speaker 1: again the run is short. But like Mark, uh, you

959
00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:08,080
Speaker 1: know bullpen coach Mike Harkey told me when I when

960
00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:10,200
Speaker 1: I got my tenth that final day to get that

961
00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:15,680
Speaker 1: tenth year, he said, they can't tell you Ish no more.

962
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:19,240
Speaker 5: They can't tell me is they can't do nothing.

963
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:21,520
Speaker 6: Cam was in the bushes when he got his ten years,

964
00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:23,440
Speaker 6: and normally somebody gets some a gift.

965
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:25,239
Speaker 4: I was in the bushes with him.

966
00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:27,360
Speaker 6: I was the highest paid player on the team, and

967
00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:29,560
Speaker 6: I was like Cam, like, I don't know you. You

968
00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:31,600
Speaker 6: drink some red or something like I'm gonna get you

969
00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:33,279
Speaker 6: like a box of red wine.
