So our lead this hour as 30 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 1: we begin the brand new week a story. I'm told 31 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 1: I have to start with story. Everyone wants to know 32 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: what I think of this start because my opinion matters, 33 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 1: So we'll start in Los Angeles. The fourth of July 34 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 1: weekend has come and gone. The pyrotechnic shows have ended, 35 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: although I did see some fireworks on the way into 36 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 1: the studio, so they're still going on in many places. 37 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 1: But the cheating a one one thousand and two one 38 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 1: thousand holes were stopping by Sokal and they monster mashed 39 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,640 Speaker 1: the cheaters against the Dodgers this weekend. There was a 40 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 1: lot of joy, a lot of euphoria among the fan base. 41 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:44,799 Speaker 1: There those that support the vermin of baseball, the deplorable, 42 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 1: cheating scumbags of Major League Baseball. So I don't know 43 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 1: if you watched the end. If you probably didn't because 44 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,359 Speaker 1: you're not doing things where you sit and watch a 45 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: stupid game on television, because you know stuff going on 46 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: holiday weekend, spend time with friends and family and all that. Well, 47 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 1: it started out within eighteen to one annihilation. It was 48 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:09,639 Speaker 1: to the point where Oral Hersheiser Dodger broadcasters said, well, 49 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: maybe these guys are cheating again, and it certainly looked 50 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,640 Speaker 1: that way, and it'd be hard to argue they weren't. 51 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 1: It would be hard to argue and have any other 52 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: point than they Why were they not doing it again? 53 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: They did it before they got away with it. So 54 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 1: that was on Friday, continued through Sunday, the old sweep. 55 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 1: So let us discuss the question. And here it is 56 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 1: for the esteem panther. You have a message for the 57 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 1: Houston fans who seem to be orgasmic over beating up 58 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 1: the Dodgers over the weekend. So my thoughts on this. 59 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: I've got big tobacco, pepe le pew and cream puff 60 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 1: and we will combine all of these things together and 61 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 1: we are going to have a Smorgesborg is what we're 62 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 1: going to have. So a do I have a message. 63 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 1: Of course we have message. We have a big message 64 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: for the Houston fans, and we've been on there for 65 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 1: years on the radio dial there and Houston. In fact, 66 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 1: we happen to be on the Astro station, which is 67 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 1: quite quite amusing, but absolutely so for mister Irrigation and 68 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 1: o Cho Texto and Alex the Cynical and Ivan the 69 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,720 Speaker 1: Terrible and all these other characters who either used to 70 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: live in Houston or live there now or Houston adjacent 71 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: and all that stuff. All you other blokes, you know 72 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: who you are. Okay, we don't give a rats ass 73 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: that the Houston Astros just swept the Dodger. The can 74 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: go sweep the Padres, they can sweep the Tigers, they 75 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,160 Speaker 1: can go sweep the twenty seven frickin' Yankees for all 76 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 1: I care. It doesn't matter to me. It doesn't matter 77 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 1: to me. They can reincarnate Babe Ruth and they can 78 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 1: strike Babe Ruth out every time. It doesn't matter, because 79 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:59,160 Speaker 1: it's heard. Polishing is what it is, right, and you're 80 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 1: not supposed to be able to polisher turd and the 81 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 1: Astros are turds, is what they are.

C h E a t E day chet it. 103 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 1: They cheated. They banged on trash cans, bite bind in 104 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 1: the freaking World Series. They did it. It was in 105 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: the World Series video. Major League Baseball is so stupid. 106 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,599 Speaker 1: They put this in the Major League Baseball produced World 107 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: Series video. The table that they used to send the 108 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: signs in to the batters. Okay, they cheated, and it 109 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 1: was in the World Series video from twenty They were 110 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 1: banging on trash cans like a toddler on a candy high, 111 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: right a sugar rush, and all that. They used all 112 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: kinds of illicit methods to steal signs that year, like 113 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 1: a kleptomaniac walking through the Astros souvenir shop and just 114 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: I'll take a hat, I'll throw that down my shorts. 115 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 1: I'll take a shirt, I'll shove that up, Mike Keysner, 116 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 1: whatever I have to do. And they did it, all, 117 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 1: all of it, all of it to get a worthless, 118 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: worthless hunk of metal. It's called a commissioner of Major 119 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: League Baseball. Just a worthless hunk of metal. And when 120 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 1: you think about it, there's a lot of parts to this. Obviously. 121 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 1: The reason that I have not forgotten and we'll never 122 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: forget is for the most part they got away with 123 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball endorsed it. They indorsed cheating, which is 124 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: odd because I see them punishing random baseball players for 125 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: being involved in gambling. Some no name pitcher for the 126 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: Cleveland Guardians is currently on time out because he could 127 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: have been involved in gambling. But a team cheating in 128 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: the World Series, we're good. We're good. Nah, We're fine. 129 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: And the reason that happened is because baseball has a 130 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: leadership vacuum. They have a spineless, toothless commissioner who is 131 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 1: still the commissioner of Major League Baseball. No vacated title 132 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 1: for a team that cheated in the World Series, no 133 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 1: postseason ban, No player got suspended who took part in 134 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 1: illicit activity. In fact, the only few people that got punished, 135 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,959 Speaker 1: they're all back. They're all back in baseball, right, all 136 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: of them. The manager of the George Tigers right now 137 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: was the manager when the Tiger, when the a holes 138 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 1: were cheating there in Houston. He's now managing the Tigers. 139 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 1: So now we can't even enjoy what they're doing in 140 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 1: Detroit because it's sullied because of the manager. And I 141 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 1: go down the list, right, and it was a not 142 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: even a slap on the wrist, that's what even counts 143 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:12,199 Speaker 1: a slap, you hit the wrist. It hurts a little bit. 144 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: That wasn't even that. Rob Manford, the toothless, gutless commissioner 145 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 1: of Major League Baseball, What an embarrassment eight years out? Nothing. 146 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:28,199 Speaker 1: In fact, Baseball ran interference for the schmucks. They ran interference. 147 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 1: They ran a PR campaign, a PR campaign. Now, when 148 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: I was a little kid, my dad tried to get 149 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 1: me don't smoke cigarettes. When I was a kid, everyone's 150 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 1: smoking cigaret. My Dad's like, don't smoke cigarettes. Might might 151 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 1: big tobacco. Right, what major League Baseball did to cover 152 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 1: for the Asstros cheating is next level. It's like big 153 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 1: tobaccos and aw cigarettes aren't bad for you, They're good. 154 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 1: Go for it, you know, smoke your lungs out. They 155 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:58,079 Speaker 1: ran interference for the scoundrel And so because of a 156 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 1: random series July four, fourth weekend where the a Holes 157 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 1: beat the Dodgers, the good guys three games in a row, 158 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 1: Like somehow that changes something. No, it just reinforces what 159 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:13,680 Speaker 1: we all we already knew, truth, justice in the in 160 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: the American way of fighting the a Holes from Houston. 161 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:19,719 Speaker 1: And how are things looking, by the way, how are 162 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 1: things looking for the face, the duplicitors face. It's a 163 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 1: small face. It's a little face of the Astros. That 164 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 1: would be Jose al Tuoba, better known by his forever 165 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 1: nickname al Boovey. Hey up, pad him down, check him 166 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: for the buzzer. Yeah, so he is forever branded no 167 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,079 Speaker 1: matter what he does. And he only got a couple 168 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,080 Speaker 1: of years left in baseball. But al Bouve has been 169 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 1: branded as the guy who wouldn't let his jersey get 170 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:56,439 Speaker 1: ripped off after a walk off homer in the American 171 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 1: League Championship Series in twenty seventeen, a year that he 172 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 1: won them most Bogus MVP award of all time. The 173 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:08,079 Speaker 1: little fella, he said at the time, I'm shy. I'm shy. 174 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:13,320 Speaker 1: My wife doesn't like that. Yeah, and if you believe 175 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 1: that you are the most gullible man in the world. No, 176 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: he didn't have the jersey. He want the jersey riped 177 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 1: off because he had a buzzer. Hey, check him for 178 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 1: the buzzer. Right now. We've heard better excuses. Now, we 179 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 1: heard a lot of excuses over these. We have heard 180 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 1: better excuses from the guy that gets caught, you know, 181 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: goes home from the night out with the fellows at 182 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 1: the bar has lipstick all over his collar. There's better 183 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 1: excuses from that guy than the Astros with al Buve 184 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 1: and the buzzer. Right, and you can win all the 185 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 1: games with every game doesn't matter. Right. You can trot 186 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 1: out your shiny roster of players there and all this 187 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 1: analytics department brag about that flex and all that, and 188 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 1: your smug little smirks you a holes. It changes nothing, 189 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:05,319 Speaker 1: right because al Bouve is the pepe le pew of baseball. 190 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 1: Pe you what stakes Albo, that's who stinks. He'll never 191 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 1: outrun it. It doesn't matter what the man does. The 192 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,960 Speaker 1: real ones know the truth. The real ones know the truth. 193 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:25,199 Speaker 1: You can't outrun that stench. You can't do it, can't 194 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: do it. You're not fast enough. And when people say 195 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 1: Houston Astros, they don't think of greatness, they don't think 196 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 1: of a sustained dynasty. They think another d word, disgrace, 197 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 1: because that is what that franchise is. So go ahead, 198 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 1: Astro fanboys, celebrate, go got, go, go crazy, knock yourself out, 199 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,319 Speaker 1: and I understand you'd be a real team the Dodgers. Congratulations, 200 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 1: Probably cheated while you were doing it, because that's what 201 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 1: you do. Why would you stop? You got away with 202 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,680 Speaker 1: it baseball indorste it. They ran a big tobacco type 203 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 1: campaign to cover for you, so why would you not 204 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 1: keep doing it? Right? Nothing has changed, nothing has changed. 205 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 1: No matter how many wins, go back to the World 206 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 1: Series again, doesn't matter. Right, doesn't matter. You are forever 207 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:18,719 Speaker 1: known as a team that needed a trash can a 208 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 1: trash can to beat the Dodgers in the World Series 209 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 1: and oh, by the way, didn't even outscore the Dodgers 210 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:26,720 Speaker 1: and need to go to seven games to win the 211 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 1: World Series wald cheating. Think about how much better the 212 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 1: twenty seventeen Dodger team was when the Houston team. The 213 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 1: Houston team was. They were cheating, They knew what was 214 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: coming on most of the pitchers, and the Dodgers took 215 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: them to a game seven. How embarrassing would have been 216 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 1: a sweep. Without that would have been a sweep. It's 217 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,959 Speaker 1: gotta suck to if you're an Albouve fan. Albuve is 218 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 1: not going to the Hall of Fame. He's not. He's not. 219 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,560 Speaker 1: They won't put in Barry Bonds, they won't put in 220 00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 1: Roger Clements. Those guys, I'd put them in instead of 221 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,679 Speaker 1: alt Bouve. Maybe when he's dead, like Pete Rose, they'll 222 00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 1: put him in the Hall of Fame, all right, now, 223 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 1: last word, So turning the page from that, we had 224 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 1: a shakeup in the managerial ranks and the front office 225 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 1: of Major League Baseball. The guillotine, the hammer of death 226 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 1: came down, well baseball death in DC. What is your 227 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: knee jerk reaction on your knee jerk reaction to the 228 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 1: Nationals saying bye bye and firing Davy Martinez, the manager 229 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: in the GM, Mike Rizzo, who really heroes to us. 230 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 1: You might remember they beat the cheating a holes in 231 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 1: a World Series years ago. Been many years since then, 232 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 1: So my reaction is what took so long? Right, as 233 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 1: far as the Nationals are concerned, the Nats have been 234 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 1: a hot mess. Now we don't talk about the Nationals. 235 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 1: Why would we, We want people to actually listen. But 236 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 1: the Nationals have been a hot mess, plain and simple. 237 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 1: They're so bad. How bad are they? Even ostrich Ant, 238 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 1: who lives in DC and drives a bus around the 239 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 1: dcra he got a good job, right, union job. He 240 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 1: won't even watch the Nationals. That's how much they sucked, right, 241 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 1: And you think about the Nationals. Both these guys, Rizzo 242 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 1: and Martinez, the GM and the manager are past their 243 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 1: expiration date. And that World Series they won, while it 244 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 1: was glorious and we enjoyed it, it was six years ago, 245 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: and the Nationals have been stumbling and bumbling in the 246 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 1: desert of mediocrity without any water ever since then. How 247 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 1: bad has it been since the high water mark the 248 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen World Series, the miraculous World Series run the 249 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 1: team from the Greater DC area, there has posted I believe, 250 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 1: five straight losing seasons and they are all but guaranteed 251 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 1: to have number six year and twenty twenty five. And 252 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 1: the Nationals Ballpark is not the factory of sadness. It's 253 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 1: the museum of misery, is what it is. They're watching 254 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 1: the Nationals who have lost that two. They don't have 255 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 1: that attitude anymore. I don't know where it went. Davy Martinez, 256 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 1: his comments, that's the big story here. He made some comments. 257 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 1: We talked about them briefly on the show. Davy Martinez 258 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 1: defended his coaching staff with the Nationals. Now to say 259 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 1: that just ruffled some feathers, that's a bit of an understatement. 260 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 1: It's a bit of an understatement. He actually apparently torched 261 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 1: the clubhouse. The softies in the Washington National Clubhouse. Not 262 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 1: only are they bad baseball, they can't take criticism. Now again, 263 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 1: Davy Martinez said, It's never on coaching, he said at 264 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 1: the time. Never, It's always on the players, Davey Martinez said, 265 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: And that is all she wrote. That is all she wrote. 266 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: Those cream puffs better known as Nationals players the cream 267 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 1: plus she changed her name from Nationals to Creampuffs. Looks 268 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 1: like they ripped off a drug stores logo anyway, with 269 00:16:56,440 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 1: the w there. So the Creampuff players did not appreciate that. 270 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:06,360 Speaker 1: Davey Martinez put the almighty finger blame pointed that right 271 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,880 Speaker 1: in their direction. And so the players were shocked, dismayed, 272 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:12,680 Speaker 1: bewildered and could not handle it. They were pissed off, 273 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,439 Speaker 1: and so he lost the clubous Now gim Mike Rizzo. 274 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:19,479 Speaker 1: We famously fought with him years ago over the usage 275 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 1: of Stephen Strasburg. You might remember the Nationals baby Stephen Strasburg. 276 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:29,040 Speaker 1: So he could turn out to retire early anyway, they 277 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:32,119 Speaker 1: were saving him so his career would be cut short. 278 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:36,679 Speaker 1: So he's been with the Nationals for almost twenty years 279 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 1: in the front office. He was also the general manager 280 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:45,399 Speaker 1: over the last almost almost twelve full seasons. I think 281 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,399 Speaker 1: it was sometime in twenty thirteen, and he survived several 282 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 1: managers before Davey Martinez and him took their exit strategy 283 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,119 Speaker 1: there and won the World Series. So you say a 284 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 1: successful one. They did win the World Series Cup. I 285 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 1: think it was three NL East Tighitos under Mike Rizzo. 286 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,040 Speaker 1: But right now, when you know your time's up, when 287 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 1: you've been there for as long as Rizzo's been there 288 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 1: and your baseball team is closer to the Rockies than 289 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,359 Speaker 1: it is to a playoff spot, so good luck on that. 290 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:18,920 Speaker 1: And player development, well, none of the guys the Nationals 291 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,360 Speaker 1: draft turned out to be all that great. The players 292 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 1: they got from the Padres for Juan Soto, those guys 293 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 1: seem to know what they're doing. But they to be fair, 294 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,920 Speaker 1: they do have a cheap owner. I thought the national 295 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 1: is going to be sold a couple years ago, and 296 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,360 Speaker 1: they haven't been sold the same ownership groups there. It's 297 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:38,120 Speaker 1: been three years. I know it takes a long time 298 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 1: to sell a multi billion dollar sports entity. It's been 299 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 1: been a while, so they got cheap ownership. But there's 300 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:47,159 Speaker 1: no excuse for the crappy product that is on the 301 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:49,399 Speaker 1: field there. You know, even you know, your Tampa Bay 302 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 1: and some of these other teams that don't spend money, 303 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 1: they still put a team that's somewhat competitive on the field. 304 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 1: The Nationals are on pace to win sixty eight games, 305 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 1: by the way, this year, and they have no pipeline. 306 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 1: They need a plunger. The pipelines clogged there. For the Nationals. 307 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 1: It's an unstable franchise. See if that Learner family finally 308 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 1: sells the Nationals here. But man, so they just gave 309 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 1: the mass extermination to everyone. Now he's had a good job. Well, 310 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 1: there's only thirty, right, there's only thirty baseball teams, or 311 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,679 Speaker 1: thirty two baseball teams, I think it. So there's not 312 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 1: that many baseball teams. So that's it. And they pay 313 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 1: pretty well. And DC A lot of people like living 314 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 1: in DC. If you like hanging out with slimeball politicians 315 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 1: and people like that, it's nice. I guess outside DC, 316 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:39,800 Speaker 1: I'm Virginia, Marylands.

July fourth weekend has now come and gone, 350 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:47,439 Speaker 1: and baseball trying to take ownership of the weekend. It 351 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 1: was not must see TV for me. Were you enchanted? 352 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:54,919 Speaker 1: Were you enchanted by Major League Baseball? They made that 353 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:59,439 Speaker 1: a mandate. They got, Well, the NFL and the NBA 354 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:04,879 Speaker 1: can over Thanksgiving and over Christmas, but July fourth, Baby, 355 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 1: there's no NFL games on July fourth, There's no NBA 356 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 1: games on July fourth. It's all about the baseball, right, 357 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,840 Speaker 1: So they made it a big deal. And to me, 358 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 1: the big deal was the hot dog eating contest. We 359 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: mentioned that in the fifth Hour podcast The dog Father. 360 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 1: The greatest athlete in our lifetimes. The Great Joey Chestnutt 361 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 1: doing it yet again in Brooklyn over the weekend, but 362 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 1: over in Queen's not that far away there. The Mets 363 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:37,119 Speaker 1: and Yankees wrapped up the weekend series on Sunday, so 364 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 1: if you were not watching this, you might have missed it. 365 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:45,760 Speaker 1: Aaron Judge a Judge Tonian thirty third home run and 366 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:50,120 Speaker 1: Cody Bellinger, a one time MVP who's now a vagabond 367 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:54,640 Speaker 1: outfielder bouncing from team to team. He started a key 368 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 1: double play. The Yankees got some help from the umpires, 369 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:02,960 Speaker 1: and they needed it to stop a six game losing streak. 370 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:06,119 Speaker 1: They did for the moment, stop the bleeding beat the 371 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:10,160 Speaker 1: Mets six to four on Sunday, All star Max Freed. 372 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,160 Speaker 1: It's amazing a guy signs a big contract actually shows 373 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 1: up in pitches and plays well. Max Freed unlike Blake 374 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 1: Snepp bra playing as I got mon Bro, Blake snout well, 375 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:25,320 Speaker 1: Max Freed went out there risking his life. Apparently he's 376 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 1: eleven and two and more importantly, the definition of a 377 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 1: big time starter is someone where you're losing and you 378 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 1: put that guy in the mound, you automatically win. So 379 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 1: Max Freed in twelve starts after the Yankees had lost 380 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:45,160 Speaker 1: the game. He's nine and one, nine and one couple 381 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 1: of non decisions in that. So let us discuss the 382 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 1: key question here is not so much from the Yankees 383 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 1: winning on Sunday, but it's more about the commentary recently 384 00:23:56,920 --> 00:24:01,439 Speaker 1: of the face of the New York Yankee when asked 385 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:05,400 Speaker 1: about the recent stretch of futility. Even with that win 386 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:08,960 Speaker 1: on Sunday, it's been a bad month for the Yankees. 387 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:12,359 Speaker 1: Going back to the early part of June, when asked 388 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 1: if the recent struggles are taking a toll on the 389 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:22,160 Speaker 1: Yankee clubhouse, Aaron Judge simply said, no is what he said. 390 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:27,879 Speaker 1: So how did his response? How did his response work 391 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,400 Speaker 1: for the electorate in the Bronx. So, I've got Trump National, 392 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: Michelin star chef, and Vegan pot luck, and we will 393 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:40,400 Speaker 1: combine all of these things together and we are going 394 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 1: to make some popcorn, freshly made buttered popcorn. Wonderful, all right? 395 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 1: So number one, Aaron Judge, mister big man on campus there, 396 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:56,360 Speaker 1: this was cringe worthy. He gets the badge, the Scouts 397 00:24:56,440 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 1: badge for cringe. Aaron Judge does here, mister l Capitan, 398 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 1: the captain of the Yankees, the face of the franchise, 399 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 1: six foot seven Lumberjack, a human billboard for the Bronx 400 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 1: Bombers and all that. But he said the thing you 401 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:15,919 Speaker 1: can't say at the time, you can't say it. And 402 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 1: it's not so much about one quote. It's not so 403 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 1: much about that. It's about what that particular quote represents. 404 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 1: It's about the tone. It's about being aware. Situational awareness, 405 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,639 Speaker 1: very important, situational awareness. Now you don't have to be 406 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 1: a Navy seal, but you should have situational awareness to 407 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:36,680 Speaker 1: know that that is not the time nor the place 408 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:39,400 Speaker 1: to say what Aaron Judge said over the weekend. It's 409 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 1: about understanding the moment, understanding the fan base, understanding the customers, 410 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:47,439 Speaker 1: all of that. And Aaron Judge just looked out of place, 411 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,680 Speaker 1: looked out of place, doesn't want to deal with it. 412 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:52,360 Speaker 1: So he's gonna kind of run away from the heat 413 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 1: a little bit. Oh no, no, we're fine. Everything is 414 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:58,920 Speaker 1: fine here. Absolutely So he's reading off a Q card 415 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:03,880 Speaker 1: at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean in a submarine. 416 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:06,399 Speaker 1: But if you're honest, even with the win against the 417 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:10,119 Speaker 1: Mets on Sunday, the Yankees continue to be a hot mess. 418 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 1: And the one win does not change things here. The 419 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:18,119 Speaker 1: Yankees over their last twenty two games have lost sixteen 420 00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:20,720 Speaker 1: of their last twenty two games. Now, I didn't play 421 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 1: in the major leagues. I just host an over and 422 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 1: I talked show that sucks. Okay where I sit there, 423 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:30,440 Speaker 1: she blows, as they say in Pirate Land. So sixteen 424 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,680 Speaker 1: losses in the last twenty two games for the Yankees, 425 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 1: and you are what your record says you are, and 426 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 1: of late, that is not a good baseball team. And 427 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 1: they're playing like a team going through the motions. You 428 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,400 Speaker 1: see a lot of the time teams that are eliminated 429 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 1: from playoff consideration, and they just kind of lolly gagaround 430 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 1: like the whole thing. It's been a boondoggle for the 431 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 1: Yankees lately. And you don't want to hear when you're 432 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,439 Speaker 1: going through a rough patch like this, everything's fine. You 433 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,160 Speaker 1: don't want to hear it. Right, that's not leadership, that's 434 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 1: not accountability by Aaron Judge, and it's not even reality 435 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 1: is It's just not it's not anything. You're the captain 436 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:11,959 Speaker 1: of the New York Yankees. You're not playing for the 437 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 1: Toledo mud Hens. You're not. Uh So, the Yankees, the 438 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 1: mighty New York team. You love the brag or of 439 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 1: Yankee baseball, this, that and the other thing. So you 440 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 1: don't just get to strug off, you know, shrug off 441 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:27,560 Speaker 1: with a wink and a nod. A bad month of baseball, 442 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 1: like it's a bad round of golf at the Trump 443 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:31,879 Speaker 1: National and you just said, well, it was just not 444 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 1: my day and my clubs were not we're not working 445 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 1: the right way. No, you don't get to do that. 446 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 1: And you know you got to at least pretend like 447 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: you're upset. Right, you're the captain of the Yankees. Again, 448 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 1: when teams losing, the fans are booing and they're unhappy. 449 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 1: You don't get to act like it's business as usual 450 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 1: when you're the captain of the yank and you just 451 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 1: can't can't be doing it. You're supposed to set the tone. 452 00:27:58,359 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 1: I think that's that's where to go. You carry the 453 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,760 Speaker 1: wait and you can't say no to that. When asked 454 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:06,639 Speaker 1: if the team's unrappling, it's obviously unraveling, and you know, 455 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,440 Speaker 1: he said, well, you can say a lot of different cliches, 456 00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 1: that's not the one to say, though. He said, well, 457 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:13,640 Speaker 1: it's frustrating we'll be better. We got to be better, 458 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 1: all those kind of things. But you gotta show some 459 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:20,000 Speaker 1: kind of pulse, some kind of pulse and uh right now, 460 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 1: and Judge seem tone death. Seemed tone death. And it's 461 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,680 Speaker 1: like he's more worried about his next commercial shoot than 462 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 1: he is the Yankees, who have fallen behind the Toronto 463 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,479 Speaker 1: Blue Jays in the American League East stand. He's now 464 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:37,920 Speaker 1: page two to Pittsburgh, PA. We go, well, actually Seattle, 465 00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 1: where the Pirates were about as far away from Pittsburgh 466 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 1: as they can get over the weekend. And the old 467 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 1: sweeperoo bupkis zip bow and zero for the Pittsburgh Pirates. 468 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:52,880 Speaker 1: After shutting out the Cardinals for three games in a row, 469 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 1: they got shut out for three games in a row. 470 00:28:55,760 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 1: So that continues a recent stretch, oh the stinkage for 471 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 1: the Pirates, including the game on Sunday started by Paul 472 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:08,880 Speaker 1: Skeins his last twelve starts. His last twelve starts for 473 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 1: the Pirates, he has an earned run average. Paul Skins, 474 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:15,320 Speaker 1: the phenom of phenoms, has an earn run average of 475 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 1: one point eighty four. We are told, yet his one 476 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:25,080 Speaker 1: loss record his last twelve starts one win and five losses, 477 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 1: the buckoes record in those twelve starts. So what does 478 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 1: that signify to you? What does that signify to you? 479 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 1: That's the question. So for me, the er right, the 480 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 1: king of earn run average and domination situation and all 481 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 1: this stuff. The ace the record says, hey, this guy 482 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:49,440 Speaker 1: is an ACE, but right now, when he's pitching, it's 483 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 1: like ace Ventura for the rest of the pirates there. 484 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 1: It's not going so well there, and it's not misleading, 485 00:29:56,080 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 1: it's insulting when this guy's pitching and you've only won 486 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,320 Speaker 1: one of he's only won one of the twelve starts, 487 00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 1: and yet he's got an ERA under two and the buckos. 488 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 1: When you have a pitcher this good, right, it's like 489 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 1: you've given a Michelin Star check. You're apparently not able 490 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 1: to eat at Michelin Star restaurants, court and people I 491 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:19,960 Speaker 1: work with, But the Michelin Star chef. You give the 492 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 1: chef a microwave and you say, make it work, right, 493 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 1: just make it work. Put in the microwave, heat it up. 494 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 1: But you've got a generational arm, like once in a 495 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:32,360 Speaker 1: generation the guy comes along like Paul Skins, and you're 496 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:36,400 Speaker 1: essentially backing him with a super soaker water gun is 497 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 1: what you're doing on offense. And then the Bucos are 498 00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 1: looking at Picasso and they're using a Picasso. They bought 499 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 1: a Picasso and they're using it as a coaster on 500 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 1: the end table. It's a nice pocassa. We'll put it 501 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 1: down here, we'll put a drink on it, and that's it. 502 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:56,200 Speaker 1: And you keep hanging ls and he's pitching great, he's 503 00:30:56,200 --> 00:31:00,040 Speaker 1: pitching amazingly. And you know, Paul Skins is everything he 504 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 1: was supposed to be in terms of the hype and 505 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 1: all that. And usually these guys don't live up to 506 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 1: the hype. We've ranted about a prospect as a suspect 507 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 1: until proven otherwise. And he's done it. And yet the 508 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 1: pirates are also living up to the hype. Everything we 509 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 1: thought the pirates were, they are. When Paul Skins is 510 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 1: on the mount. So this stretch, it signifies cut to 511 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 1: the chase. It signifies that if he keeps us up, 512 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 1: he is going to need some therapy a trade. Both 513 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 1: all of the above, all of that and the pirates 514 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 1: who have been given not because if they did any good, 515 00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 1: you get Paul Skins because you're bad and you have 516 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 1: a top pick in the draft, and they had a 517 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 1: high pick and they got Paul Skins. They've been given 518 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,400 Speaker 1: this great pitcher and they're gonna blow it it, fletts 519 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 1: it away, and then eventually he'll be pitching for the Dodgers, 520 00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 1: of the Yankees, of the Red Sox, and they'll get 521 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:54,320 Speaker 1: a bag of suspects. All right, now, final point, So 522 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:56,440 Speaker 1: flipping the page, we mentioned the trade deadline we talked 523 00:31:56,480 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 1: about last hour. Brian Reynolds of the Pirates. He's he's 524 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 1: got one hundred million dollars contract, he's not particularly great, 525 00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 1: and he's got a no trade list. So the Dodgers 526 00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 1: who would like to acquire his services cannot trade for 527 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 1: him unless he approves the trade because he has them 528 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 1: on their no trade list. So I mentioned that because 529 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:23,719 Speaker 1: another player who is likely going to be traded Eugenio Suarez, 530 00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 1: the third basem Gino Swarez of the Diamondbacks. He is 531 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 1: grabbing a lot of attention here before the trade deadline, 532 00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 1: and he's got now twenty eight home runs, seventy three RBIs, 533 00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:39,480 Speaker 1: and the Yankees and the Seattle Mariners, along with the 534 00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:42,560 Speaker 1: Detroit Tigers and some other teams all said to be 535 00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:44,960 Speaker 1: knocking on the door there saying, hey, can we get 536 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:47,720 Speaker 1: our hands on this guy? So how does all of 537 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,520 Speaker 1: that sound to you? How does all of that sound 538 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 1: to you? So to me, Gino swore as the third 539 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 1: baseman of the diving right now, he's not just the 540 00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:01,360 Speaker 1: flavor of the month. Here's one things about the trade deadline. 541 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:04,800 Speaker 1: There's always got to be that flavor, that popular person 542 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:09,480 Speaker 1: for popular people. But he's pretty much the entire tasting menu. 543 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 1: If you look at who's likely going to be traded, 544 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,840 Speaker 1: it was always the surprise. The great thing about sports 545 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:15,840 Speaker 1: is anyone can be traded at any time. If you 546 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:20,200 Speaker 1: don't believe me, ask Luka Doncic about that. The Mavericks 547 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 1: just handed him away to the Lakers. So anything is 548 00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 1: possible in any sport. But here's a guy who's like 549 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:31,160 Speaker 1: a silver slugger candidate and he's out there and it's 550 00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:33,960 Speaker 1: you know, it's like, hey, this guy could be moved 551 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 1: like a bowl of chili at a cookoff. Just get 552 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:39,720 Speaker 1: rid of this guy. That's it. And now the trade 553 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:42,320 Speaker 1: deadline looming, and it's like a bad hangover for a 554 00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 1: lot of these teams. Here the vultures are out circling around, 555 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 1: and so of course the Yankees, who need a third basement, 556 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:50,760 Speaker 1: would say, all right, this guy Swarez, let's see we 557 00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 1: can get him. And it's like the last steak at 558 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 1: a vegan pot luck if you're the Yankees. They want 559 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:01,280 Speaker 1: to move Jazz Chisholm full time. I'm to second base 560 00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:04,640 Speaker 1: and DJ Lemayhew to the bench or to the broadcast 561 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 1: booth on the S network and just put him out 562 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,480 Speaker 1: there and have him do his thing. So there is that, 563 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 1: and now the Mariners's that's the perfect Mariner move. They 564 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 1: had him, they traded him. He was in Seattle, came 565 00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:19,799 Speaker 1: over from Cincinnati. They traded him to Arizona. So now 566 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,000 Speaker 1: they're like, well, maybe we'll get him back. It's like 567 00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 1: we got that item on Amazon. We returned it, but 568 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:28,319 Speaker 1: now we're going to buy it again. We already had it, 569 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 1: but no, I know we won't. We we didn't appreciate it, 570 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 1: but now we want it. We want to buy the 571 00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:36,040 Speaker 1: item again. So we'll just do that. And now they're 572 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:38,160 Speaker 1: trying to undo the damage. So maybe I'll have a 573 00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:40,759 Speaker 1: reunion tour. And there's some other teams mentioned, and you know, 574 00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:44,359 Speaker 1: it's like the Mariners, though, would be perfect. He's such 575 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 1: a great classic Mariner move where they trade for a 576 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 1: guy that it's like breaking up with your ex and 577 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:53,960 Speaker 1: then you watch the X go on and do some 578 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:55,799 Speaker 1: really good things and you're like, all right, well, let's 579 00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:57,480 Speaker 1: see if we can get that get back together with 580 00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:01,400 Speaker 1: the X. And the bottom line, though, he is a 581 00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 1: rental at the trade down line, which is why these 582 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:06,440 Speaker 1: big market teams likely won. And he's also thirty three 583 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:08,920 Speaker 1: years old, so he's at the end of his athletic 584 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,440 Speaker 1: prime and not hitting for much of an average, but 585 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:13,880 Speaker 1: that's a boomer stat. That's an old head stat. That 586 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:17,719 Speaker 1: batting average, twenty eight hole runs, and the numbers all 587 00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:20,680 Speaker 1: indicate that he's still uber productive, still one of the 588 00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:25,160 Speaker 1: better offensive power hitters in baseball, and the kind of 589 00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 1: a player that in a playoff run could play well 590 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:30,719 Speaker 1: for a couple of weeks in October and all of 591 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:32,760 Speaker 1: a sudden, you get a hunk of metal. 592 00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maler 593 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:38,360 Speaker 2: Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific. 594 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 1: It's smaller, how about that? To the third degree? This 595 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,439 Speaker 1: is one big fan gets great, all right? Cool. 596 00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,160 Speaker 5: The Miami Dolphins had one of the top offensives in 597 00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,560 Speaker 5: the NFL in twenty twenty three, but missed the playoffs 598 00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:54,840 Speaker 5: last year the summer saying the team is teetering on 599 00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:57,719 Speaker 5: the edge of a franchise reset. But do you think 600 00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:00,000 Speaker 5: the jobs of Tua and McDaniel are on the line 601 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:00,560 Speaker 5: next season? 602 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 1: Well, as you heard last week, I know you weren't here, 603 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:03,640 Speaker 1: but I know you listen to the show because you're 604 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:06,360 Speaker 1: producing it. So I did a full mallar monologue about 605 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:09,120 Speaker 1: this particular topic. And as I pointed out in that 606 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:13,719 Speaker 1: Mallard monologue can available on the podcast download absolutely to 607 00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:17,759 Speaker 1: and Mike McDaniel and the GM there, all of them. 608 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,200 Speaker 1: This is it. This is the last chance saloon there 609 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 1: for the Dolphins. Even Stevin Meatballs can see that. 610 00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:27,120 Speaker 5: Next cal Raley has reached new career high in home 611 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:29,120 Speaker 5: runs for a single season and we haven't even reached 612 00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:31,280 Speaker 5: the All Star break. In fact, he's tied Ken Griffy 613 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:34,080 Speaker 5: Junior's Mariners record for most dingers before the break. Do 614 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 5: you think the al MVP is the big numbers to lose. 615 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 1: No, because the Mariners are a playoff team. They're a 616 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 1: wild kid team. So are the Yankees. But Aaron Judge 617 00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:45,560 Speaker 1: is in the lead and he's It would be a 618 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:48,920 Speaker 1: monumental upset if Aaron Judge does not win the MVP 619 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,080 Speaker 1: Award in the Americanly and Cal Rawley's been great and 620 00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:53,839 Speaker 1: wonderful and all that, but he plays in Seattle. That's 621 00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:54,440 Speaker 1: going to hurt him. 622 00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 5: Next, the Suns gave Devin Booker another extension. He's gonna 623 00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:00,200 Speaker 5: be signed with them through twenty thirty. With Durant now 624 00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:02,040 Speaker 5: in Houston, the Suns are in rebuild mode. Do you 625 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 5: think that Booker is a player worth building around? 626 00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:08,240 Speaker 1: Well? They can try. They were in the finals against Milwaukee. 627 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:10,040 Speaker 1: They couldn't get it done. They're not gonna win with 628 00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:12,759 Speaker 1: Devin Booker as their headliner. It's not gonna work. How 629 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:13,800 Speaker 1: do we do passes? 630 00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 5: There? 631 00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 1: It is? That's a win putter on the board. 632 00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:24,080 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 633 00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:27,480 Speaker 2: the nation.
