Speaker 3: we'll see what. Happens it just is Very rockies to

159
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 3: go with the guy that, is you, know kind of

160
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:39,080
Speaker 3: famous from a movie and a. Book and we'll.

161
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 4: See he's earned a, lot.

162
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 2: Famous for being what famous for being a disciple Of Bill, james,

163
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 2: right famous for being almost too analytically driven to the

164
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,439
Speaker 2: point where you kind of lost the scouting. Department and

165
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 2: they made a major motion picture that Won oscars based

166
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 2: on saber metrics and. Analytics SO i guarantee you The

167
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 2: rockies looked at this and, SAID i want the analytics.

168
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:02,319
Speaker 2: Guy and they looked around the league over the last

169
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,839
Speaker 2: two decades and said who is the analytics? Guy and

170
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 2: they stumbled upon the chief strategy officer for The Cleveland

171
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:14,000
Speaker 2: Brown SO i could appreciate the analytically driven approach to

172
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 2: hiring a lead decision. Maker but it is funny that

173
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:20,400
Speaker 2: they found the guy that was in the. Movie and here's.

174
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 3: The thing, Too and last Thing i'll mention is baseball

175
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:28,520

209
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 2: with some market. Movement and what DO i mean by?

210
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,200
Speaker 2: That this first question comes to us FROM x and

211
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 2: this question is from At Carter Underscore west. Eleven who

212
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 2: of the ten smallest market teams will do the. Most

213
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,439
Speaker 2: who of the ten largest market teams will do the.

214
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 2: Least it's tough in terms of market. Size so How

215
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,960
Speaker 2: i'm gonna go about it is payroll allocation for twenty twenty.

216
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 2: Six i'm going to read you the top. Ten we're

217
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 2: going to talk about who does the least this, offseason

218
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 2: and Then i'm gonna read you the bottom, ten and

219
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 2: we're gonna talk about who does the most of those bottom.

220
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 2: Ten do you want me to go payroll allocation for

221
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:50,720
Speaker 2: twenty five or for twenty?

222
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 3: SIX i Would i'd go For i'd go for Twenty

223
00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 3: that's a good. Question, ACTUALLY i think for twenty six twenty.

224
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 2: Six, okay so what do you have allocated?

225
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 3: For, ACTUALLY i think the basis of the question is

226
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,199
Speaker 3: kind of like from what we saw last, year what's

227
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 3: gonna be like can this team be a little bit different?

228
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:13,319
Speaker 3: Now like which team is clearing up the most to potentially?

229
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,200
Speaker 3: SPEND i think they'll be overlap regardless then, diagram it's

230
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:20,719
Speaker 3: gonna be too overlapping quite significantly. There but, YEAH i

231
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 3: Think i'm just. Curious we'll use twenty five as a reference.

232
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 2: Point, okay let's use twenty. Five so the first part

233
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,040
Speaker 2: of the. Exercise we're gonna go with the top ten

234
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 2: teams in terms of payroll, allocation and you're gonna tell

235
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 2: me who you feel like does the least this offseason

236
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,720
Speaker 2: among the teams that are top ten in payroll for twenty,

237
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 2: five so the top ten were The, dodgers The, mets The,

238
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 2: yankees The, phillies The Blue, jays The, astros The, rangers The,

239
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:56,160
Speaker 2: padres The, braves and The. Cups so again la Both New, York's, Philly, Toronto, Houston,

240
00:12:56,640 --> 00:13:01,960
Speaker 2: Texas San, Diego. Atlanta The. CUPS i can start if

241
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 2: you want more time to, think but if you've got

242
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:05,080
Speaker 2: one off the map a.

243
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 4: Rip there's two.

244
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 3: LAYUPS i don't expect The padres to do, much just

245
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,559
Speaker 3: because in terms of and we're talking about, spending, right

246
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 3: you can always expect the, trade BUT i don't expect

247
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 3: The padres to do, much AND i will never expect

248
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 3: The cubs to do much as long As rick gets

249
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 3: as the.

250
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 2: Owner the fact THAT i saw a report in Early

251
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 2: november this came out earlier this week that The cubs

252
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 2: will not be pursuing big time start or big time

253
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 2: relievers on the free agent market was discouraging to me

254
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 2: AND i know that a lot of people looked at

255
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:39,240
Speaker 2: it and, said, oh it's. Relievers you, know they might

256
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 2: pursue other. Things they're effectively being priced out of The

257
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,280
Speaker 2: Kyle tucker. Thing they've never paid a free agent like,

258
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 2: That so who's to believe that they're going to do

259
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 2: it For Kyle? Tucker, now who's to say that they're

260
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 2: going to do The Alex bregman. Thing When Matt shaw

261
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 2: showed his signs of life at the end of the

262
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:55,240
Speaker 2: twenty five, Season SO i start looking at what else

263
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 2: you may? Need Showed aymanaga is now. Walking you assume

264
00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 2: that they pursue starting, pitch but do they do it

265
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,240
Speaker 2: on the free agent market or do they try and

266
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 2: get creative on the trade. Front they have the capital

267
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 2: to go Get Mackenzie gore From, washington they have the

268
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,840
Speaker 2: capital to pursue a couple other trade. Partners maybe not

269
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 2: schoolbl but we'll. SEE i thought relievers were the way

270
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 2: to go on the free agent. Market Brad keller's not

271
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 2: on the team next, year the only. Highliver it's crazy

272
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 2: they lost a. Lot if they were losing nothing and

273
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 2: everybody was, RETAINED i understand wanting to run back what

274
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:30,800
Speaker 2: you had at the end of the year because The

275
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 2: cup bullpen was decent at the end of the. Year

276
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:37,480
Speaker 2: but the only high leverage arm that is returning Is Daniel.

277
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 2: Palencia you need other guys Around Daniel, palencia and even

278
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:44,640
Speaker 2: if you feel overwhelmingly confident that he can be a

279
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 2: ninth inning, guy go get an elite eighth inning, guy

280
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,320
Speaker 2: and if you have to flip flop, him you. Can

281
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 2: the fact that On november, Three november, fourth whenever it,

282
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:58,600
Speaker 2: was they shut down the pursuit Of Edwin diaz Or Devin,

283
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 2: Williams it's it's just crazy to me that they shut

284
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 2: it down immediately like. That so that was my easy

285
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 2: layup answer because.

286
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 3: And AGAIN i think it ties into similar to what

287
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 3: we were talking about with The Jed hoyer. CONVERSATION i

288
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 3: Think hoyer has a budget that he has to work,

289
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 3: within and he's probably looking at it and, saying, Well

290
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 3: i'm not gonna WASTE x amount of my. Budget i'm

291
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,000
Speaker 3: on a reliever WHEN i don't have a ton of

292
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,280
Speaker 3: wiggle room right now because ownership's not giving me a

293
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,320
Speaker 3: much much room to work. With so that's at least

294
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 3: HOW i perceive. It you, KNOW i Think jed would

295
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 3: love to. SUSPEND i, mean they were apparently in on

296
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 3: The Tanner scott. Sweepstakes maybe they they saw how that

297
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 3: went and, said, oh thank, goodness we dodged that, bullet,

298
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,760
Speaker 3: Right because The dodgers can afford to miss On Tanner,

299
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 3: scott The cups can afford to as, well But Jed

300
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:47,040
Speaker 3: hoyer can't afford To and that's the, difference. Right he

301
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 3: needs to operate like he's a mid market team because

302
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 3: his owner handcuffs his, own you, know his own front,

303
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 3: office so that that part is. TOUGH i think The

304
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 3: rangers are an interesting one as. Well you do wonder

305
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 3: like at what point do they kind of not, reset

306
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 3: but like look at their financial commitments because they're still

307
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,720
Speaker 3: gonna Have semi And seeger paid for a long time

308
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 3: To grom for a couple more years and, say maybe

309
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 3: we need to like we're still, good but, yeah maybe

310
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,000
Speaker 3: we need to get a little bit. Younger LIKE i

311
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 3: could see it going either, way BUT i don't feel

312
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 3: as though The rangers are going to be incredibly aggressive this,

313
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 3: offseason given where their payroll, is where they have continued to,

314
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:32,440
Speaker 3: be AND i just think where the franchise is kind

315
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 3: of AT i don't. Know i'm curious what you think

316
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 3: about The. Rangers, yeah The.

317
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:40,320
Speaker 2: Rangers it makes sense because they were so offensively lethargic

318
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:42,680
Speaker 2: for the back half of the, year really the entire,

319
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 2: season and the starting pitching was so, good and the

320
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 2: relievers they mixed and. Matched they didn't have to too

321
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 2: much coming off the. Books so part of me, Thinks,

322
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,880
Speaker 2: okay they feel like half the team they don't have to.

323
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 2: Touch they're thirteen to fifteen, pitchers maybe even twenty when

324
00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 2: you think about minor league, depth they're twenty pictures that

325
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 2: they have in the. Stable they may feel like they

326
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 2: don't need to, touch AND i understand entirely why they

327
00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 2: wouldn't do. That and the question then becomes how many

328
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 2: places do you feel comfortable spending on? Bats do you

329
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:13,720
Speaker 2: really think j T romuto is going to be that

330
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 2: much better Than? Jonaheim probably. Not do you really think

331
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:19,320
Speaker 2: so and so is going to be better than this

332
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:21,640
Speaker 2: guy in the corner? Outfield are you really moving off

333
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:25,280
Speaker 2: of a Doleice. Garcia there are so many little pieces

334
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 2: in this that make little sense to. Me if you're

335
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,960
Speaker 2: looking to, upgrade if it's not going to be, substantial

336
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:33,639
Speaker 2: why do it SO i understand why you just Throw.

337
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 3: Texas, yeah and it's, Like, okay a lot of these

338
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 3: contracts are at least on the back end, now especially

339
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,680
Speaker 3: some of the, pictures and and you're looking forward to

340
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 3: Getting jock off the books after next. Year and when

341
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 3: you look at the younger core Of langford And Josh

342
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,919
Speaker 3: young And Evan, carter hopefully you take a step forward and.

343
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 3: Lighter and you mentioned some of the top prospect APP

344
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 3: i just wonder if they want a little reset on

345
00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,439
Speaker 3: the books. There AND i think signing more free agents

346
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:01,240
Speaker 3: and vets like just may not make a ton of,

347
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,679
Speaker 3: sense as we, mentioned Like San diego is always kind

348
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,520
Speaker 3: of cash. STRAPPED i also wonder What philly's gonna do

349
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,480
Speaker 3: because they don't have to like, if, okay bring Back,

350
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 3: schwarber that's, priority but that may not even. Happen bring

351
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 3: BACK jt that. Helps if you do those two, things

352
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 3: you've got no other room to work with. FINANCIALLY i

353
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:20,439
Speaker 3: don't think.

354
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,639
Speaker 2: So that was the other team that jumped out to.

355
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:26,439
Speaker 2: Me there are some clear cut lineup deficiencies if they

356
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 2: don't bring anybody, back, Right, okay try and bring Back Kyle.

357
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:31,880
Speaker 2: SCHWARBER i hope they. DO i think they're gonna pony

358
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 2: up and do. That can they get out of The castianos?

359
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 2: Thing maybe not. So castianos already locks up a roster

360
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 2: spot for. You centerfield is going to be marsh and

361
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 2: Probably Justin. Crawford at this, Point crawford had enough success

362
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 2: In TRIPLE a to warn a major league roster spot

363
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 2: In dombrowski and his, endics and media availability was obviously

364
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:55,480
Speaker 2: very high On Justin, Crawford so baitter that retention doesn't

365
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,440
Speaker 2: make much. Sense the one big splash THAT i could

366
00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 2: see them making is a third. Base do you move

367
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:04,239
Speaker 2: off of, boonmb do you trade? Him he's, tradeable and

368
00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:07,160
Speaker 2: do you pony up and Pay. Bregman you're already at

369
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 2: about two hundred and fifty million dollars on the books,

370
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,480
Speaker 2: here so there's a lot of money allocated to this

371
00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:15,840
Speaker 2: roster as it. Stands right, now there's minimal space in the,

372
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,680
Speaker 2: rotation and you look at the bullpen and it's pretty much.

373
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,680
Speaker 2: Untouched the only guy that comes off Is David. Robertson

374
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 2: but you already have your closer In. Deran alvarado is already,

375
00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:29,520
Speaker 2: Back kirkering is already. Back strom is already, Back so

376
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,919
Speaker 2: there's like two guys to go. Get It's, schwarber it's a,

377
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 2: catcher and then maybe It's. Bregman so it just, depends,

378
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:41,760
Speaker 2: like all, right if they Retain schwarber AND jt and

379
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:46,120
Speaker 2: they keep, boom what did they? Do not? Much it's

380
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:47,480
Speaker 2: just running back the same damn.

381
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:51,919
Speaker 3: Thing that's WHY i like the idea of clearing up

382
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 3: some money moving. Boone, Yeah Aiden, miller COULD i think

383
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:58,119
Speaker 3: be big league ready? Soon and is he gonna be

384
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 3: great right? AWAY i don't. Know but he going to

385
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:02,879
Speaker 3: defend at third? Base, well he's gonna grab bags if

386
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 3: that's your, late you, know back of the order, HITTER i.

387
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:07,320
Speaker 4: DON'T i don't hate. That and then you have some

388
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 4: money to allocate.

389
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:11,480
Speaker 2: Elsewhere almost identical to The Matt shaw situation In chicago

390
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:13,879
Speaker 2: going into this, year where, like you, Know shaw is

391
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 2: going to be okay at minimum and when the stick

392
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 2: comes around he can transition into. Good that feels like

393
00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 2: The Aiden miller conversation one hundred.

394
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:24,080
Speaker 3: Percent, SO i, mean we've talked about all the teams

395
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 3: that we don't think are going to do very, much,

396
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,360
Speaker 3: right who do we think is going to do very?

397
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,359
Speaker 2: Much so the bottom ten and payroll last year twenty

398
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 2: one through, Thirty, Minnesota, Colorado, Cincinnati, Washington, Cleveland, Tampa Bay,

399
00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 2: pittsburgh The White, sox The a's and The. Marlins so, Again,

400
00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:51,680
Speaker 2: miami The, a's The White, Sox, Pittsburgh, Tampa, Cleveland, Washington,

401
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:57,960
Speaker 2: Cincinnati colorado And. Minnesota the two that immediate like knee. Jerk,

402
00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 2: oh of course they're going to do. Something cincinnati And

403
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 2: cleveland are probably those two. Teams but how much faith

404
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:09,399
Speaker 2: do you have In cleveland actually doing. Things cincinnati couldn't

405
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,040
Speaker 2: agree to terms OR i think declined their end of

406
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 2: the option With Austin, hayes So hayes is now on

407
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,040
Speaker 2: off the. Books there were a bunch of moves For

408
00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:20,000
Speaker 2: cincinnati that make me think that they're going to try

409
00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 2: and upgrade in a couple of. Places so my eyes

410
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 2: gravitate Towards. Cincinnati the other, one to be totally honest with,

411
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:29,439
Speaker 2: you The a's might throw a bunch of cash at

412
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 2: a couple more starting.

413
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:33,879
Speaker 3: Pitchers, yep, Yep AND i think they should AND i

414
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:37,920
Speaker 3: THINK i think they. WILL i really, do because this

415
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,439
Speaker 3: is a team now where you'll get your offense and you, say,

416
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,520
Speaker 3: man like we can we can make a little run next,

417
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:45,879
Speaker 3: year and we can really position ourselves. Well AND i

418
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:49,359
Speaker 3: think with all the money that's waiting for you, know

419
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 3: ownership And fisher on the other, side when they make the,

420
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 3: MOVE i think even the cheapest of cheapos can justify

421
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 3: that expenditure when you, know you, know you're generating hype

422
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,399
Speaker 3: and excitement ahead of that potential move and you, have you,

423
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 3: KNOW i think one of the more exciting young. Cores

424
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 3: The reds thing is interesting because What Nick crawl, SAID

425
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,840
Speaker 3: i think it was a few days, ago was that

426
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 3: the payroll will be around the same was the quote

427
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 3: to the twenty twenty five, levels which is a, joke

428
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 3: just just a.

429
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,720
Speaker 2: Joke by the, Way So cincinnati's payroll last year was

430
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:29,359
Speaker 2: one nineteen right, now what are they owned the books

431
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 2: for before arbitration kicks in thirty? Nine let me go

432
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,639
Speaker 2: to their estimation when it comes to ARBITRATION.

433
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 3: Mlb trade rumors as their projected payroll or roster resource

434
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:42,880
Speaker 3: does excuse me at ninety one?

435
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,080
Speaker 2: Million, YEAH i see ninety seven on spot, Tracks so

436
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:49,560
Speaker 2: that gives them about twenty five thirty to work, with which.

437
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 4: Is that is pretty? Active if that's?

438
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:55,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah and they can move off of maybe a

439
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:59,920
Speaker 3: contract here or there like. That that's what makes It

440
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 3: Brian hayes thing even more head. SCRATCHING i think is

441
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:07,040
Speaker 3: just like why you have even more money to work with?

442
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:08,879
Speaker 3: Now BUT i guess they looked at the free, agent

443
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:11,960
Speaker 3: you know pool and said it drops off at third,

444
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,679
Speaker 3: base and this is a player, that you, know we

445
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:16,239
Speaker 3: feel like will probably be better than what we can

446
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 3: get during the off. Season BUT i don't.

447
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:20,720
Speaker 4: KNOW i just thought that was.

448
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:25,040
Speaker 3: Interesting BUT i think they obviously have some wiggle room there,

449
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:27,640
Speaker 3: still even though they don't want to up the. PAYROLL

450
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:31,640
Speaker 3: i think in The a's there IT'S i just don't

451
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,800
Speaker 3: how does the revenue work for? Them they're playing in

452
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:35,639
Speaker 3: a minor league. Park how much is that affecting? THEM

453
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:39,119
Speaker 3: i have no. Idea i'm not, sure but who knows

454
00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 3: all fake numbers with them?

455
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:44,679
Speaker 4: Anyways and THEN i don't know if this sounds.

456
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 3: WEIRD i don't have any proper analysis for, this BUT

457
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 3: i feel Like tampa's do for one of their surprising little.

458
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 3: DEALS i think so. TOO i think they try it every,

459
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 3: year they don't, always and if they're going to give

460
00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:59,679
Speaker 3: their best, offers we just don't really hear about it

461
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,199
Speaker 3: and if it's just they're not going to, overpay, right

462
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,720
Speaker 3: but sometimes players fall into their. Lap Aus On kim

463
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:06,320
Speaker 3: kind of fell into THE wap just didn't really work.

464
00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:09,440
Speaker 3: OUT i think they could do something similar.

465
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:10,240
Speaker 4: To, that but a little bit.

466
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:14,479
Speaker 3: BIGGER i don't know who that is, exactly BUT i

467
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 3: just feel LIKE i feel like they're due to make

468
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 3: a little bit of a spend and do something, there

469
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,280
Speaker 3: especially new. Ownership, yeah maybe they want to send a

470
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:27,240
Speaker 3: message here to their fan base and that this is

471
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:29,400
Speaker 3: going to be a little bit different than what you've

472
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:31,919
Speaker 3: been used, to you, Know AND i wonder if that

473
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 3: a little bit of a. Splash there could be something

474
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:36,320
Speaker 3: that they.

475
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:39,119
Speaker 2: Do and as of nine minutes, ago this is The

476
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:41,920
Speaker 2: perka doing this. Live they have eleven more million dollars

477
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:45,399
Speaker 2: to play. With they Declined Pete fairbanks option for twenty twenty.

478
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:48,199
Speaker 2: Six that was an eleven million dollar club option that they.

479
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:51,200
Speaker 2: Declined So Pete fairbanks number one is now a free,

480
00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 2: agent and that enriches the pool of free agent, relievers

481
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 2: which we've learned The cubs are not willing to venture.

482
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 2: Into if The cubs And Pete fairbanks have a conversation

483
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 2: and they get to a point where they can't agree

484
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:08,800
Speaker 2: on like a bargain. Number that is crazy to. Me

485
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,720
Speaker 2: crazy to me that The cubs would eliminate themselves Before

486
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:15,080
Speaker 2: fairbanks even hits the open. Market So Pete fairbanks is

487
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:18,000
Speaker 2: officially a free Agent tampa to climb the club. Option

488
00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 2: BUT i could see, that like they, have for the

489
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,040
Speaker 2: sake of the, exercise thirty five million dollars to. Spend

490
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 2: how do they spend? IT i Trust tampa to spend

491
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:28,119
Speaker 2: it in a really smart and fun and frisky. Way

492
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:31,240
Speaker 2: AND i feel like this could be their fun and frisky.

493
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:32,919
Speaker 3: Offseason Like Merril kelly or something like.

494
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:35,919
Speaker 2: That, yeah, Right like who's the next Flin.

495
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,320
Speaker 3: OR i know they don't really need, him but LIKE

496
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:41,720
Speaker 3: i could see like An okamoto something like that would

497
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:45,200
Speaker 3: be really. Fun so that's the one OTHER i could. See.

498
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:49,959
Speaker 3: Pittsburgh there's just no, shot right they should on, paper they,

501
00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:59,479

505
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:09,920

506
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:11,879
Speaker 2: oh they're the team of the, future and then all

507
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:13,640
Speaker 2: of a, sudden they took five steps.

508
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:17,240
Speaker 3: Backwards, YEAH i Think tampa's going to surprise with a little.

509
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:19,919
Speaker 3: Deal that's that's my. Shot and THEN i agree with

510
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:22,760
Speaker 3: you on the. Athletics, cool all.

511
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:26,400
Speaker 2: Right next question also comes to us On, twitter and

512
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 2: this one in our mailbag comes to us from At chargers.

513
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:34,120
Speaker 2: Bang who are the best bounce back starting pitching options

514
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 2: in free? Agency starting pitchers that are on the open.

515
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:40,879
Speaker 2: Market the ones that immediately jumped to the forefront of my,

516
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:46,240
Speaker 2: mind you, know the best are From Bervaldez Ranger. Suarez

517
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 2: Dylan ceze is one of the. Best he's ALSO i

518
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,359
Speaker 2: think looking for a relative bounce. Back it was not

519
00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:53,520
Speaker 2: a very good walk here For dylan Ce so that

520
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:57,480
Speaker 2: is my bounce back. PICK i Guess Dylan. Ce's but

521
00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:00,240
Speaker 2: the clear cut one for me Is Michael. King he

522
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:03,440
Speaker 2: knows What Michael king's value. Is When Michael, king when,

523
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 2: healthy has proven that he can be a top fifteen

524
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 2: to twenty pitcher In Major League. Baseball SO i look

525
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 2: For Michael king to almost sign like this bargain deal

526
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:16,840
Speaker 2: maybe approve it of sorts and absolutely. Shove so the

527
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 2: two Former padres are the ones that jumped to the

528
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:19,240
Speaker 2: forefront for.

529
00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:21,640
Speaker 4: Me, YEAH i was trying to.

530
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:24,960
Speaker 3: Think, of, like by definition a bounce back guy here

531
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:30,200
Speaker 3: because it's it's tough because, like does Does giulito count

532
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,600
Speaker 3: as that he kind of bounced back last? YEAR i

533
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 3: Think imanaga is the clear cut, one and now that

534
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:39,840
Speaker 3: he's a free, agent even more, so and a guy

535
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,639
Speaker 3: THAT i just think one maybe finds a way to

536
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,399
Speaker 3: get a tick back on the, fastball hits a different

537
00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:45,719
Speaker 3: kind of.

538
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:48,000
Speaker 4: Yo you could already hear it now right.

539
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 3: Where Oh imanaga's averaging ninety two to ninety three, now

540
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:55,120
Speaker 3: and he did a whole different workout regiment this offseason

541
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:58,119
Speaker 3: and you, know met with this person or that person

542
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:02,440
Speaker 3: and did, This AND i like him with his. Fastball one,

543
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 3: tick two ticks can make all the difference in the.

544
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:06,440
Speaker 3: World and kind of saw that this year being down

545
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:08,439
Speaker 3: a tick when you have that kind of. Vert SO

546
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 3: i think he's the clear cut, guy AND i think

547
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:12,320
Speaker 3: for him this year was a little bit of a

548
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:15,160
Speaker 3: wake up. Call he probably the first year he comes

549
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:17,360
Speaker 3: over and is now my stuff still plays the. Same

550
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:19,119
Speaker 3: they said this was going to be a tough, transition

551
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:21,360
Speaker 3: and then has the year that he had this, year

552
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,360
Speaker 3: and then has the option, Declined, LIKE i think this

553
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:26,280
Speaker 3: is a spot where it's, like, well this is this

554
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:28,960
Speaker 3: year coming up for, me can be the difference between

555
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:32,720
Speaker 3: me making another sixty to seventy million in my career

556
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 3: even regardless of how this contract, goes or or a

557
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 3: little bit. Less SO i think he's a clear cut

558
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:42,040
Speaker 3: option there to be a guy THAT i think could

559
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:44,080
Speaker 3: bounce back in a big. Way and that's Why i'm

560
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,120
Speaker 3: really fascinated if he goes one year deal or if

561
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,160
Speaker 3: he tries to maximize his earnings and just goes three by,

562
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 3: twenty AND i think somebody would give him.

563
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 2: That in terms of a bounce, Back i'm going to

564
00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:55,400
Speaker 2: start to get a little, gross And i'm going to

565
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 2: throw you some, names AND i just want to see

566
00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 2: your facial, reaction And i'm going to try and describe

00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 2: facial reaction for our audience on, Audio Nick, martinez is

568
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:08,240

00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 3: Head, YEAH i can.

570
00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:10,720

571
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:14,200
Speaker 2: Not he? Did gallan is also a clearcut. One he

572
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,080
Speaker 2: started to really write the ship after The All star,

573
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:19,840
Speaker 2: break but it was tough before The All star. Break Eric, FETTI.

574
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,800
Speaker 3: I don't even think he's bouncing, back. MAN i, Think, okay.

575
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:27,200
Speaker 2: He was really good in twenty four and then he

576
00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 2: was really bad in twenty. Five did all of it

577
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:32,960
Speaker 2: go away in twenty? Five that's just for the sake

578
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 2: of the, exercise that's my.

579
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:37,160
Speaker 3: Question he, NO i mean he is a a guy

580
00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 3: that could be better next, Year SO i guess by, definition, yes,

581
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,560

Speaker 2: mariners have the prospect capital to go and Get schooble

618
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 2: for one. Year do they do? It do The tigers

619
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:41,959
Speaker 2: entertain a prospect. Package they clearly have a system that

620
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:46,280
Speaker 2: can go get. Him the other systems at the forefront

621
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:51,600
Speaker 2: of your mind that can go Get Trek's, Schooble, seattle The, Dodgers,

622
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:57,240
Speaker 2: tampa But tampa wouldn't do it. Yet tampa could have

623
00:31:57,280 --> 00:32:00,440
Speaker 2: some fun and do. This that would be pretty. Funny

624
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 2: milwaukee could go do.

625
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:03,160
Speaker 3: It The.

626
00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,280
Speaker 2: Mets The mets could go do.

627
00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:08,560
Speaker 3: It The mets could do it because it is insane

628
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:11,000
Speaker 3: as it, Is, like, yes it's still going to be

629
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:13,920
Speaker 3: a crazy, haul but it is one year Of, schooble

630
00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 3: so it's still going to be a crazy. Haul but

631
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 3: it's not going to be The Juan soto, package right

632
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 3: like it just it won't be. That SO i THINK

633
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 3: i think a lot of teams can do. IT i

634
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:28,880
Speaker 3: just wonder it's one of those situations WHERE i don't

635
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,720
Speaker 3: very rarely DO i think it's gonna work in your

636
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 3: Favor when you know that the player is gonna hit

637
00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:37,160
Speaker 3: free agency unless you feel like that's. All like for The,

638
00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:38,840
Speaker 3: MARINERS i think it makes a little bit more sense

639
00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:41,200
Speaker 3: because they can legitimately win The World series with. HIM

640
00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 3: i think with The, mets like it can make some,

641
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:45,320
Speaker 3: sense but they also have a lot of things they

642
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:47,320
Speaker 3: need to sort. Out and if you have an eighty

643
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:50,560
Speaker 3: eight win season and you traded you, know two fifty

644
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 3: future value prospects and a couple other, guys uh that

645
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:56,960
Speaker 3: that's twelve plus years of control of those, guys, like

646
00:32:57,720 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 3: and then you win eighty eight games and that's.

647
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 4: It, LIKE i don't know if it makes as much.

648
00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:01,520
Speaker 4: Sense SO i.

649
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:05,320
Speaker 3: Think The mariners are as good of a candidate as you've,

650
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:07,680
Speaker 3: got BECAUSE i think for them, too there's just several

651
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 3: prospects THAT i don't think they'd feel as. Much you imagine,

652
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,680
Speaker 3: dangling you, know AND i don't know where he fits

653
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:15,080
Speaker 3: in with The tiger, specifically but you could Dangle Harry

654
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:16,760
Speaker 3: ford and some of these other guys THAT i think

655
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:21,240
Speaker 3: would provide plenty of. INTRIGUE i do think The mets

656
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:24,240
Speaker 3: have as good of a top ten as you've got

657
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:24,960
Speaker 3: in terms of.

658
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:28,160
Speaker 4: Prospects as if we just updated that, system but you.

659
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:30,400
Speaker 3: Also have to think, about like what team is going

660
00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:33,640
Speaker 3: to operate in that, manner in that level of. Aggression

661
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:35,320
Speaker 3: and that's WHY i don't see The brewers doing. It

662
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:37,680
Speaker 3: that's WHY i don't see The rays doing. It it

663
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:39,800
Speaker 3: doesn't seem like there's a ton of teams that are

664
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:42,560
Speaker 3: probably gonna meet that asking price that's going to Allow

665
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:45,240
Speaker 3: Scott harris to do, it because it's no matter what

666
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:47,720
Speaker 3: an optics, nightmare, Right so you better nail the trade

667
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:49,959
Speaker 3: and you better get as much as you. Can and

668
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 3: that's where maybe The dodgers or the team that really

669
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:55,120
Speaker 3: is willing to get a little, reckless maybe The, phillies

670
00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 3: because they don't want to spend out, right and they

671
00:33:57,560 --> 00:33:59,479
Speaker 3: know this might be, actually even though we say it every,

672
00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:02,160
Speaker 3: year this might be their last. Shot maybe The phillies

673
00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:05,920
Speaker 3: can piece something together there and make it happen because.

674
00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:09,120
Speaker 4: Their system isn't, elite but it's it's good.

675
00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:11,400
Speaker 3: Enough they. Could it would, hurt but they could do.

676
00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:14,360
Speaker 2: It. Yeah the other team THAT i wanted to float

677
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,680
Speaker 2: in this but they just don't have the headlining piece

678
00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:21,760
Speaker 2: good enough to do it Was. Arizona like If lawler

679
00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:25,760
Speaker 2: could be a headlining piece Obviously arizona would be willing

680
00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:29,279
Speaker 2: to go and do, it But lawler, has, UNFORTUNATELY i feel,

681
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:32,320
Speaker 2: like played himself out of being A terrek schoolble. Headliner

682
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:35,520
Speaker 2: he can be the headliner for some really good. Pitchers Terrek,

683
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:38,240
Speaker 2: SCHOOBLE i don't know if he's at that level. Anymore

684
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:39,920
Speaker 2: you'd have to give a lot with, it, right a.

685
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:43,000
Speaker 3: Lot it'd be like co headliners and that hurts right

686
00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:45,279
Speaker 3: like you'd have to be doing that and Wald schmidt and.

687
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:49,240
Speaker 3: Like at that, POINT i think If i'm it's. Crazy

688
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:50,680
Speaker 3: If i'm The, DIAMONDBACKS i don't know IF i want

689
00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:52,400
Speaker 3: to do it at that point because AND i know

690
00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:54,400
Speaker 3: it Was, oh but It's. Terrek'scouoble it's one, year.

691
00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:58,120
Speaker 2: And it's one year and you have zero. Farm after this, trade.

692
00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:00,439
Speaker 3: You're, done and the odds of you retaining him are

693
00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:04,640
Speaker 3: probably rather. Slim so that's WHERE i think they Could,

694
00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:08,600
Speaker 3: theoretically it may not make sense for, Them and then

695
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:10,319
Speaker 3: the team THAT i think would want to do, IT

696
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:11,920
Speaker 3: i just don't know how they would do. It as

697
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:14,760
Speaker 3: The giants as, well they don't have the prospect, capital

698
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:16,600
Speaker 3: BUT i could see them having the aggression and the

699
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,000
Speaker 3: willingness to do. IT i just don't know how they

700
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,279
Speaker 3: would be able to do it because it would have

701
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,799
Speaker 3: to Be eldridge and then scrap it together, Man and

702
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:26,520
Speaker 3: maybe you, can but, like do you want to? Again

703
00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:27,800
Speaker 3: it goes back to the, conversation do you want to

704
00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 3: Trade eldridge for one year of a? Pitcher it's, Tough

705
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:34,640
Speaker 3: so all of those wrinkles make it. INTERESTING i don't.

706
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:37,040
Speaker 3: Know is there a fit that makes the most sense for,

707
00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:40,160
Speaker 3: you like a team that you feel like can afford

708
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:42,919
Speaker 3: to go all in other than The dodgers on one year?

709
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 2: Here not, really to be honest with, you the two

710
00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:52,520
Speaker 2: that make the most sense to me that would never do,

711
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:55,040
Speaker 2: It but in terms of like it makes a lot

712
00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:58,120
Speaker 2: of sense in terms of their candidacy for contention in

713
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:02,520
Speaker 2: twenty twenty, Six milwaukee is far and away a clear

714
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,600
Speaker 2: cut one for. Me if The brewers Had trek schoobl this,

715
00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:07,920
Speaker 2: year think about how we're talking about, Them but.

716
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:09,319
Speaker 4: They're usually the one that's trading The.

717
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:12,520
Speaker 2: AGS i know. Exactly but what does like back to

718
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:14,640
Speaker 2: back N O manager of The year awards do for?

719
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:18,319
Speaker 2: You what does the best team in baseball and not

720
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:21,080
Speaker 2: getting through THE cs do for? You and getting bludgeon

721
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:23,440
Speaker 2: in THE cs do for. You, yeah they're not going

722
00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:25,880
Speaker 2: to do it because they've built a sustainable model on

723
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:29,640
Speaker 2: winning and they don't spend the future to maximize the.

724
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:32,440
Speaker 2: Present they want to, have you know that To poto

725
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:35,440
Speaker 2: fifty four, percent like they embody that as well as

726
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:37,879
Speaker 2: any organization in, Baseball so they wouldn't do. It it's,

727
00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:40,520
Speaker 2: funny LIKE i look at the two AND i, think

728
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:43,560
Speaker 2: what Would milwaukee look like if they Had schooble fronting that?

729
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:47,239
Speaker 2: Rotation and then what Would tampa look like next year

730
00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:49,759
Speaker 2: if they Had schooble running that fronting that. Rotation but

731
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:52,160
Speaker 2: these are two teams that literally never do, that so they.

732
00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:54,919
Speaker 3: Won't that's and that's that's the tough.

733
00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:58,560
Speaker 2: Part the other one is The, mets like obviously The, mets.

734
00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 3: And then one other could The Blue jays, Say, okay

735
00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 3: it's no guarantee we get back, there we need to

736
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:09,879
Speaker 3: make a. Splash we already have our financial. Commitments could

737
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,759
Speaker 3: The Blue jays piece something together here to make it?

738
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,640
Speaker 2: Happen and what would their piece together look? Like it

739
00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:18,000
Speaker 2: would start with. Argin start With.

740
00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:20,560
Speaker 3: ARGIN i, MEAN i think a lot of people like you,

741
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:22,080
Speaker 3: know AND i don't think you need to do both of,

742
00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:24,440
Speaker 3: them like you could figure it out a lot of

743
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:27,440
Speaker 3: people Like Jojo, Parker, LIKE i don't know if you

744
00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:29,160
Speaker 3: have to move both of. THEM i think one of

745
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,359
Speaker 3: those two guys can headline because they have so many

746
00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:35,360
Speaker 3: INTERESTING i think pitching prospects at least that are, Emerging

747
00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:38,400
Speaker 3: but it would be, Hard like is It? Tetaman are

748
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:39,640
Speaker 3: you gonna trade six years A?

749
00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:43,320
Speaker 2: Tetaman how About ben's pitching clips here on? YouTube adding

750
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,120
Speaker 2: in barger question mark. Barging.

751
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:48,799
Speaker 3: Thing that's the interesting thing about The Blue jays is

752
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 3: it doesn't and it's a great, point it doesn't necessarily

753
00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:55,520
Speaker 3: have to be all farm, related like and if you're The,

754
00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:59,400
Speaker 3: tigers you're not looking for like a major major prospect

755
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:01,279
Speaker 3: all you probably want some some close to big league

756
00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:03,440
Speaker 3: ready pieces that can help. You and they've got a

757
00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:06,400
Speaker 3: lot of outfield depth that they need to sort, through and.

758
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:07,400
Speaker 4: We're going to talk about that in a.

759
00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:10,160
Speaker 3: Minute but like even A Joey Lil, perfido you get an incredible.

760
00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 3: Year that guy CARRIES i think as much value as

761
00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:15,480
Speaker 3: a really solid, prospect given that he's had some big league,

762
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:19,120
Speaker 3: success he's got, versatility he was just squeezed out on you,

763
00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:21,680
Speaker 3: know one of the best rosters position player wise in,

764
00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:24,480
Speaker 3: baseball but even then contributed and played, Well like why

765
00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:26,480
Speaker 3: can't that be a complimentary piece if you're going To

766
00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:30,400
Speaker 3: mala And Lill braffito and then you, Know Johnny king, whatever,

767
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,560
Speaker 3: like you can put together a really good package there

768
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:36,440
Speaker 3: and make it. Interesting AND i think that's and then

Speaker 2: manager role without any previous coaching experience at the professional.

791
00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:44,400
Speaker 2: Level Tony vitello won a national title At. Tennessee he

792
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:46,400
Speaker 2: jumps from being the head coach at The university Of

793
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:49,680
Speaker 2: tennessee and dealing with nil in the transfer portal to

794
00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:53,759
Speaker 2: dealing With Raffi devers And Logan. Web it is an amazing.

795
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:57,680
Speaker 2: Jump it is such a ballsy jump from The San Francisco.

796
00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:01,920
Speaker 2: Giants it is so so o gutsy From Buster posey

798
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:08,439
Speaker 2: call via, text AND i just don't think we've ever

799
00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:10,480
Speaker 2: really had the opportunity to talk about it on the

800
00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 2: pod because there was that Whole World series thing going. On.

801
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:19,160
Speaker 2: YEAH i freaking love this. HIGHER i love that they're

803
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:28,000
Speaker 2: is that winning A kunya back? OVER i JUST i

804
00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:32,480
Speaker 2: look at these two AND i gravitate Towards San francisco

805
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:36,719
Speaker 2: Hiring Tony. VITELLO i gravitate Towards washington hiring a thirty

806
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:40,919
Speaker 2: three year Old Blake puterra get, fun get, young get

807
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:44,640
Speaker 2: closer to these. Guys and this is the closest that

808
00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 2: a team has gotten to these. Guys.

809
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:48,239
Speaker 3: Well AND i think there's a new normal here right

810
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:51,560
Speaker 3: in terms of how what a manager's job description. Is

811
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,640
Speaker 3: AND i think more than, ever the manager's job description

812
00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:58,280
Speaker 3: is less about putting the best lineup together every single

813
00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:01,640
Speaker 3: day and more about keeping the team together every single

814
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:04,040
Speaker 3: day and kind of, leading you, know a group of

815
00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:07,600
Speaker 3: young men and keeping them bought in and having the

816
00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:10,000
Speaker 3: trust and all those different, things and really being the

817
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:12,359
Speaker 3: liaison between players in front.

818
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:14,520
Speaker 4: Office like they got to wear a lot of the

819
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:15,320
Speaker 4: player of.

820
00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:18,560
Speaker 3: Frustration like if a player is not, playing you, know

821
00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:21,759
Speaker 3: and he's got an issue with, it they're not the

822
00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:23,920
Speaker 3: players not going to THE gm and saying why AM

823
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:26,359
Speaker 3: i not? Playing but the manager's usually not the one

824
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:28,600
Speaker 3: making that. Decision yet he's gonna go to the manager's

825
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:29,359
Speaker 3: office and talk about.

826
00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:32,279
Speaker 4: It so that's the new norm in the.

827
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:34,680
Speaker 3: Role and like it's, funny it goes back To moneyball

828
00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:36,759
Speaker 3: in the conversation WHERE i, have like you remember it,

829
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:39,080
Speaker 3: was that's kind of the beginning of that disconnect that

830
00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:41,919
Speaker 3: daw has been, streamlined where IT'S gm acquires a guy

831
00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:45,520
Speaker 3: wants him to play, manager says, NO i like this guy.

832
00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:49,319
Speaker 3: Better that doesn't really happen, anymore doesn't. Exist SO i

833
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:52,920
Speaker 3: think when you have a college coach here that that

834
00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:54,960
Speaker 3: is the biggest part of the. JOB i think is

835
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:58,720
Speaker 3: leading even younger men THAT i have even less direction

836
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:02,120
Speaker 3: and things like. THAT i think it's an interesting shot to.

837
00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:04,400
Speaker 3: TAKE i would be a little bit nervous if it

838
00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:10,080
Speaker 3: was him In washington with like nobody else maybe, involved

839
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 3: like No, dusty, no, No. BOCI i really like it

840
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:17,360
Speaker 3: when you have the mentors to, compliment you have a

841
00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:19,960
Speaker 3: buster posey to, compliment and you have a guy that

842
00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:23,800
Speaker 3: also In, vitello that can provide a perspective that Maybe

843
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:28,080
Speaker 3: boci and, uh you, Know dusty don't, Have AND i

844
00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:30,240
Speaker 3: think that's the really cool part of, it but also

845
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:34,400
Speaker 3: compensate for the lack of experience That vitella, has you,

846
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:37,600
Speaker 3: know at the big league. Level SO i do feel

847
00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:41,799
Speaker 3: like this is a perfect scenario to take this. Shot as.

848
00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:44,880
Speaker 3: Well Between, posey the Two hall Of fame, managers and

849
00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:48,480
Speaker 3: the situation at hand, THERE i think it wouldn't have

850
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:51,759
Speaker 3: been an equal hire in a different. SITUATION i think

851
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,239
Speaker 3: this is the perfect landing spot to try this thing

852
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:54,840
Speaker 3: with the college.

853
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:58,520
Speaker 2: Coach, Yes AND i Think Tony votello is going to feel,

854
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:03,319
Speaker 2: zero like almost feels zero hesitance to reach out to

855
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:05,640
Speaker 2: A Bruce boche and A Dusty. Baker, frankly that's what

856
00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:10,160
Speaker 2: they're there. For AND i guarantee You bochie looked at

857
00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:12,839
Speaker 2: this and, SAID i have the opportunity to be kind

858
00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:15,239
Speaker 2: of a manager's. MANAGER i get to coach up a.

859
00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:19,080
Speaker 2: Manager that's better than any managerial Opportunity i'm gonna have right.

860
00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:22,600
Speaker 2: NOW i have no idea What bochie's pursuit of another

861
00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:25,360
Speaker 2: big league manager role looked like this offseason after he

862
00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:27,839
Speaker 2: and textas parted. WAYS i have no idea if he

863
00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:31,879
Speaker 2: was a real candidate For San diego or any other

864
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:34,480
Speaker 2: team The. Rockies The ROCKIES i think are the only

865
00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:37,120
Speaker 2: team without that manager seat field right. Now but that's

866
00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:40,839
Speaker 2: A paul De podesta. Problem so, UH i just look

867
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:45,320
Speaker 2: At bochie salivating at this and him saying, yes because

868
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:49,359
Speaker 2: he wanted to be the mentor To Tony bytello And

869
00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:52,840
Speaker 2: Dusty baker being willing to Mentor tony By. Tello so

870
00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:57,040
Speaker 2: if you told me THAT i could learn quarterback in

871
00:43:57,080 --> 00:44:00,160
Speaker 2: THE nfl And Tom brady was a part of, OWN

872
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:03,200
Speaker 2: i want to play for The, Raiders like that's that's

873
00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:05,080
Speaker 2: my cross sport equivalent of.

874
00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 3: This. Yeah, Yeah and at the end of the, day

875
00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:11,040
Speaker 3: The raiders are very good right, now at the end

876
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:13,040
Speaker 3: of the roster is the most important, part Right so, like,

877
00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:17,040
Speaker 3: yeah and that that's the big. Thing roster looks pretty.

878
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:21,000
Speaker 3: GOOD i think it's a it's it's a nice piece

879
00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:25,480
Speaker 3: to add here into like a NEW i THINK i

880
00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:27,000
Speaker 3: don't want to see a new, era but like the

881
00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:30,320
Speaker 3: posey era and just kind of creating a different feel

882
00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:32,919
Speaker 3: to everything that's going on. There he's made his kind

883
00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:36,560
Speaker 3: of stamped. Trade he's made some moves and now this

884
00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:38,920
Speaker 3: is kind of his stamp tiring and AND i think

885
00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:41,799
Speaker 3: it's it's a fun approach to take from a guy

886
00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:44,760
Speaker 3: that you, know is A hall Of fame caliber player

887
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:47,279
Speaker 3: that has played for a legendary manager saying, NO i

888
00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:49,160
Speaker 3: think this is actually a good shot to take. Here

889
00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:50,719
Speaker 3: AND i think that says a, lot BECAUSE i don't

890
00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:52,160
Speaker 3: Think posy's the kind of guy that's just going to

891
00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:54,279
Speaker 3: try to be different and get cute with it like there.

892
00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:56,360
Speaker 3: Was i'm sure a lot of sound logic behind. This.

893
00:44:56,880 --> 00:45:00,520
Speaker 2: Absolutely, uh it's amazing that we've made it forty three

894

00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:42,320
Speaker 2: Out i'm planning a wedding For january at twenty. Seven

924
00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:45,200
Speaker 2: things are gonna get more real In january at twenty.

925
00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:48,160
Speaker 2: Six as soon As New year's. HIT i Know i'm

926
00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:51,239
Speaker 2: a year away from my, wedding so shit's gonna get

927
00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:54,640
Speaker 2: more real at that. POINT i feel like it was

928
00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:57,239
Speaker 2: almost this. Abstract oh that's so far off in the,

929
00:46:57,320 --> 00:47:01,160
Speaker 2: distance and now we have counted one he's in remaining

930
00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:05,880
Speaker 2: before we get to, this it feels like around an inevitable.

931
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:08,640
Speaker 2: LOCKOUT i have no idea what's gonna happen, there but

932
00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:12,319
Speaker 2: there's this sense of impending doom that is becoming more

933
00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:14,800
Speaker 2: and more real for a guy that struggled with injury

934
00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:17,160
Speaker 2: after The All Star break and struggled on field after

935
00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:19,440
Speaker 2: The All star. Break there were so many factors here

936
00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:23,000
Speaker 2: that make his free agency fascinating to.

937
00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:26,399
Speaker 3: Me, yeah it's a combination of unfortunate circumstances for him

938
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:29,279
Speaker 3: where he's still had a good year, obviously but it

939
00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:32,120
Speaker 3: wasn't his best and try to play through injury and then,

940
00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:35,080
Speaker 3: yeah you have the lockout. Looming but it's funny to

941
00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:35,879
Speaker 3: me because.

942
00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:38,200
Speaker 4: How much does that.

943
00:47:39,320 --> 00:47:41,880
Speaker 3: MATTER i know teams don't want to pay guys like

944
00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:46,560
Speaker 3: when you know when they're not playing games, essentially and

945
00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:48,680
Speaker 3: there's a lot of different wrinkles to that, Too BUT

946
00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:53,000
Speaker 3: i feel, like no matter, what you're signing him for

947
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:55,759
Speaker 3: the next decade, Anyway so what's the, Difference and how

948
00:47:55,760 --> 00:47:57,920
Speaker 3: many games are we truly gonna, miss if any at?

949
00:47:57,920 --> 00:48:02,480
Speaker 2: All and the clap back to that is do you

950
00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:04,720
Speaker 2: want to be on the hook for forty five million

951
00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:07,280
Speaker 2: dollars a year in twenty thirty three when there's already

952
00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:09,520
Speaker 2: a restructured thing and only five guys are making.

953
00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:12,960
Speaker 3: That, YEAH i mean that that is that is the difficult,

954
00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:15,719
Speaker 3: part right because you don't know what the structure is

955
00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:17,759
Speaker 3: going to look. Like AND i think that is the

956
00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:22,680
Speaker 3: the ultimate. Challenge but you're worried about You you're not

957
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:25,960
Speaker 3: going to rewrite the constitution, here Right like at the

958
00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:28,000
Speaker 3: end of the, day there's too many players on those

959
00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:30,600
Speaker 3: deals that you you won't. LIKE i don't think there's

960
00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:32,759
Speaker 3: a way where those deals are just going to become.

961
00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:35,759
Speaker 3: Up so if you create an infrastructure And i'm this

962
00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:37,960
Speaker 3: Is i've already starting to get on the edge of.

963
00:48:37,920 --> 00:48:38,839
Speaker 4: Outside of my pay.

964
00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:42,440
Speaker 3: Grade but if you create an infrastructure of, like, okay

965
00:48:43,239 --> 00:48:46,319
Speaker 3: forty five million dollar contracts are no longer worth, it

966
00:48:47,160 --> 00:48:48,960
Speaker 3: that would that would fuck them like a lot of.

967
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:51,279
Speaker 3: Teams SO i just don't think it would be allowed to.

968
00:48:51,400 --> 00:48:55,040
Speaker 3: Happen even if you did create some guardrails and figure

969
00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:58,279
Speaker 3: out a way to create some sort of cap it

970
00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:01,960
Speaker 3: would have to be still room enough to where all

971
00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:05,080
Speaker 3: of these forty plus million all The Kyle tucker caliber

972
00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:08,319
Speaker 3: players are still earning close to. That and that's the

973
00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:10,840
Speaker 3: other conversation that becomes really fascinating, too like who is

974
00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:13,080
Speaker 3: most affected by a salary? Cap is it the top

975
00:49:13,160 --> 00:49:14,120
Speaker 3: end guys or.

976
00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:15,000
Speaker 4: Is it like the middle?

977
00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:18,879
Speaker 3: Guys because in THE nba you have no middle, class you.

978
00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:21,760
Speaker 2: Have not no, no because you're either getting Like Tumani

979
00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:24,600
Speaker 2: kamara getting one hundred million, dollars you're Getting caruso getting,

980
00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:27,279
Speaker 2: fifty or you've got guys playing on the. Minimum now

981
00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:29,319
Speaker 2: the minimum is going to go. Up that feels like

982
00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:35,399
Speaker 2: the foregone. Conclusion it feels like The Players association will

983
00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:37,520
Speaker 2: try and push The Major league minimum from the seven

984
00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:39,719
Speaker 2: to fifty eight hundred it's sitting at right, now to

985
00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:42,279
Speaker 2: a million bucks and that would be second BEHIND i

986
00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:46,160
Speaker 2: think THE. Nba so you've got a million dollars in

987
00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:48,920
Speaker 2: terms of a, minimum what happens to the mid? Level

988
00:49:49,160 --> 00:49:51,799
Speaker 2: But i'm looking at just allocations for twenty twenty, six

989
00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:56,239
Speaker 2: there are fifteen. Guys twenty six times thirty is what

990
00:49:56,800 --> 00:50:03,760
Speaker 2: twenty six times thirty equals seven hundred and eighty seven

991
00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:07,399
Speaker 2: hundred and eighty Active Major League baseball players at any

992
00:50:07,400 --> 00:50:11,200
Speaker 2: given time fifteen of them make thirty million dollars in,

993
00:50:11,239 --> 00:50:17,600
Speaker 2: More so that number from an owner's, perspective they'd probably

994
00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:21,000
Speaker 2: want to keep. There and they don't want. Everybody they

995
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:23,879
Speaker 2: don't want fifty guys making thirty million dollars or, more

996
00:50:24,040 --> 00:50:26,960
Speaker 2: they want fifteen guys making thirty million dollars or. More

997
00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:31,160
Speaker 2: so the question then, becomes do you View Kyle tucker

998
00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:34,399
Speaker 2: as one of those top? Fifteen do you View Kyle

999
00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:37,640
Speaker 2: tucker as the fifth guy to make forty million dollars

1000
00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:39,960
Speaker 2: over the course of a given. Year there are four

1001
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:42,560
Speaker 2: guys making forty million dollars or more in twenty twenty.

1002
00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:46,760
Speaker 2: Six It's, Soto It's, judge It's, wheeler and It's. Guerrero

1003
00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:51,719
Speaker 2: those are the. Four so it just becomes, like all,

1004
00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:55,880
Speaker 2: right if there are sweeping changes and the top is,

1005
00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:59,879
Speaker 2: affected AM i comfortable with this guy being grandfathered into

1006
00:50:59,880 --> 00:51:00,720
Speaker 2: the tippy tippy?

1007
00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:01,000
Speaker 3: Top?

1008
00:51:01,080 --> 00:51:04,280
Speaker 2: Yeah and that you got to lean on your, evaluations

1009
00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:05,520
Speaker 2: and you got to lean on YOUR r AND d,

1010
00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:07,600
Speaker 2: department like you have to lean on a lot there

1011
00:51:07,640 --> 00:51:08,000
Speaker 2: to make that.

1012
00:51:08,080 --> 00:51:10,480
Speaker 3: Decision and that's WHERE i THINK i go longer term

1013
00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:13,040
Speaker 3: and just a little bit lower Aav but it becomes

1014
00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:16,359
Speaker 3: a really fascinating, conversation And i'm very eager to see

1015
00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:19,919
Speaker 3: how it all works. Out BUT i still think, regardless

1016
00:51:20,360 --> 00:51:22,359
Speaker 3: we're going to see a team just, say, Well i'm

1017
00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:24,719
Speaker 3: going to take advantage of this. Uncertainty maybe in some

1018
00:51:24,800 --> 00:51:26,759
Speaker 3: other years we might get out. Bid and IF i

1019
00:51:26,760 --> 00:51:29,760
Speaker 3: can get in On Kyle tucker even three hundred, million

1020
00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:32,759
Speaker 3: three hundred, CHANGE i think that's where you start to

1021
00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:35,880
Speaker 3: see The yankees really get back involved, there.

1022
00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:37,280
Speaker 2: And The cubs maybe get involved.

1023
00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:39,760
Speaker 3: There, yeah and The cubs you'd hope would get involved,

1024
00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:43,200
Speaker 3: there and maybe it opens up the sweepsticks a little bit.

1025
00:51:43,200 --> 00:51:45,759
Speaker 3: MORE i think The giants should be involved there as,

1026
00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:48,040
Speaker 3: Well so maybe more teams are a little bit more

1027
00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:50,520
Speaker 3: willing at that. Point but then that naturally drives the

1028
00:51:50,520 --> 00:51:52,680
Speaker 3: bidding back up. Again SO i think it's going to be.

1029
00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:54,759
Speaker 3: FASCINATING i think teams will go more. Years well 're

1030
00:51:54,800 --> 00:51:57,279
Speaker 3: aav for the sake of not knowing what the.

1031
00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:00,200
Speaker 4: Situations to.

1032
00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:02,080
Speaker 3: Be salary cap, wise that.

1033
00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:04,560
Speaker 2: Feels like to play where it.

1034
00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:06,359
Speaker 3: Seems like a game that'll age, well even though he's been,

1035
00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:08,040
Speaker 3: Hurt like his game seems like it'll age.

1036
00:52:08,040 --> 00:52:10,400
Speaker 2: Well, yeah because he doesn't really punch. Out he. Walks

1037
00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:13,200
Speaker 2: he plays good, defense like there's enough well rounded in

1038
00:52:13,239 --> 00:52:15,480
Speaker 2: his game that makes you think that it's gonna be,

1039
00:52:15,520 --> 00:52:18,439
Speaker 2: fine which is funny because common thinking would, be, oh

1040
00:52:18,560 --> 00:52:21,120
Speaker 2: in this case of, uncertainty pay him a lot like

1041
00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:24,840
Speaker 2: highav over a shorter amount of total. Time we're actually

1042
00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:26,440
Speaker 2: working the opposite, here where you should pay him for

1043
00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:29,360
Speaker 2: longer but pay him a lower amount of, money which is.

1044
00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:32,000
Speaker 2: Funny part of the trickle down leads to our next

1045
00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:34,759
Speaker 2: question on, discord and this discord question comes to us

1046
00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:36,799
Speaker 2: From Regal, lager one of the funniest guys in that.

1047
00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:41,520
Speaker 2: Discord he asked some funny. Questions he, said my serious

1048
00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:45,239

1049
00:52:45,320 --> 00:52:48,640
Speaker 2: massive payday will still be unsigned On Valentine's? Day and

1053
00:52:57,400 --> 00:53:02,000
Speaker 2: Guys Cody bellinger won't sign Until tucker, signs because everybody

1059
00:53:16,680 --> 00:53:19,600
Speaker 2: are waiting For tucker to sign and then their market gets.

1060
00:53:19,640 --> 00:53:23,360
Speaker 2: Moving there are pieces like that every single, year and

1061
00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:26,000

1064
00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:34,320
Speaker 2: of the line, person and Then Michael king is gonna

1065
00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:37,080
Speaker 2: look at that contract and, say people forget When i'm

1068
00:53:43,520 --> 00:53:46,440
Speaker 2: offseason much like it was last. Year you also look

1069
00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:51,000
Speaker 2: at the third base market Behind Alex. Bregman it's weird with,

1070
00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:54,480
Speaker 2: posting but like Does morikami wait Until bregman signs or

1071
00:53:54,520 --> 00:53:58,160
Speaker 2: Does bregman wait Until mourakami, signs there are a couple

1072
00:53:58,200 --> 00:54:02,680
Speaker 2: of decent domino effects that need to, happen And bellinger

1073
00:54:02,719 --> 00:54:03,840
Speaker 2: is the clearest example of.

1074
00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:05,719
Speaker 4: That, yeah that's.

1075
00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:07,480
Speaker 3: FUNNY i THINK i Think tucker is going to take

1076
00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:09,880
Speaker 3: some time, too because they're gonna just hope that the

1077
00:54:09,920 --> 00:54:12,799
Speaker 3: market materializes a little bit more than it does or

1078
00:54:12,840 --> 00:54:19,960
Speaker 3: whatever it may. Be pitching wise To cease one of

1079
00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:22,640
Speaker 3: the first shoes to, drop or is he a wait and, see,

1080
00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:25,080
Speaker 3: like are team's going to be a little bit more

1081
00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:26,879
Speaker 3: hesitant to all? RIGHT i, GUESS i guess we'll take

1082
00:54:26,880 --> 00:54:30,839
Speaker 3: a shot. There or Is fromber a safer choice for?

1083
00:54:30,920 --> 00:54:34,560
Speaker 3: You like who? Is they're, Different they're volatile in different,

1084
00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:35,840
Speaker 3: ways AND.

1085
00:54:37,520 --> 00:54:40,160
Speaker 2: I all, KNOW i understand the idea Of romber being

1086
00:54:40,239 --> 00:54:43,479
Speaker 2: volatile from like an emotional, perspective but from an on field,

1087
00:54:43,520 --> 00:54:45,759
Speaker 2: perspective you know what you're getting every, year and that's

1088
00:54:46,080 --> 00:54:48,759
Speaker 2: one hundred and eighty to two hundred innings at a

1089
00:54:48,800 --> 00:54:51,200
Speaker 2: low threes and a really good ground ball. Rate SO

1090
00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:53,200
Speaker 2: i feel Like fromber could be the first shoe to

1091
00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:57,359
Speaker 2: drop because there has been precedent for, Him and then

1092
00:54:57,400 --> 00:55:00,359
Speaker 2: you get into volatility is cease and then When cease,

1093
00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:03,000
Speaker 2: SIGNS i feel Like gallon would wait for cease because

1094
00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:06,360
Speaker 2: If cese is getting, This gallan can pitch himself similar

1095
00:55:06,440 --> 00:55:08,759
Speaker 2: or better To cease and, say WELL i need. More

1096
00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:11,200
Speaker 2: there are a bunch of different ways that this can.

1097
00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:14,239
Speaker 3: Unfold, YEAH i have a Feeling cease is gonna take a.

1098
00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:17,239
Speaker 3: WHILE i don't know, why BUT i JUST i THINK

1099
00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:19,840
Speaker 3: i think there's gonna be a lot because he's so,

1100
00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:22,480
Speaker 3: talented AND i think there's just such a wide range

1101
00:55:22,520 --> 00:55:25,000
Speaker 3: of what he possibly could get and what he might

1102
00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:27,279
Speaker 3: end up. GETTING i think that might be one of

1103
00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:30,719
Speaker 3: the guys that we're waiting late into the, offseason still

1104
00:55:30,719 --> 00:55:32,040
Speaker 3: trying to figure out where the heck he's gonna.

1105
00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:34,920
Speaker 2: Go, YEAH i could see, that all. Right next question

1106
00:55:34,960 --> 00:55:38,479
Speaker 2: we've got comes to us From scoople is my king

1107
00:55:38,680 --> 00:55:42,440
Speaker 2: with a crown emoji in. Discord this question has to

1108
00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:45,919
Speaker 2: do with The Blue. Jays how did The Blue jays get?

1109
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:48,560
Speaker 2: Better and should they get rid Of varshow because his

1110
00:55:48,680 --> 00:55:53,920
Speaker 2: bat is so. Inconsistent i'll push back on the inconsistent bat.

1111
00:55:53,960 --> 00:55:56,439
Speaker 2: Thing when Var show was on the field this past,

1112
00:55:56,520 --> 00:55:58,720
Speaker 2: year he was, like pound for, pound the most powerful

1113
00:55:58,719 --> 00:56:01,040
Speaker 2: guy in. Baseball he hit a bunch of homers and

1114
00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:03,640
Speaker 2: not a lot of time they hold on to our.

1115
00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:05,880
Speaker 2: Show Var show has quickly become a cult. Hero this

1116
00:56:05,920 --> 00:56:08,239
Speaker 2: guy is one of the best defensive outfielders In Major League?

1117
00:56:08,280 --> 00:56:12,040
Speaker 2: Baseball how did The Blue jays get? Better terrek's Schoobl

1118
00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:13,839
Speaker 2: how else did The Blue jays get?

1119
00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:20,040
Speaker 3: Better, Derek, Uh it's interesting because they. Aren't and this

1120
00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:22,080
Speaker 3: is the hard part of like The hangover ball, clubs

1121
00:56:22,160 --> 00:56:24,920
Speaker 3: right where it's, Like, okay you don't want to rewrite

1122
00:56:24,920 --> 00:56:27,919
Speaker 3: what got you, there because you clearly have something good,

1123
00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:30,560
Speaker 3: here but you also don't want to take it for

1124
00:56:30,600 --> 00:56:32,480
Speaker 3: granted and just assume you're gonna get back there with

1125
00:56:32,560 --> 00:56:35,520
Speaker 3: the same situation. Always you're gonna lose some. Guys guys

1126
00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:38,360
Speaker 3: are gonna get. Older you, Know Kevin gosman's gonna be thirty.

1127
00:56:38,360 --> 00:56:42,120
Speaker 3: Five George springer had this incredible, season can he match

1128
00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:44,960
Speaker 3: it at thirty. SIX i think there's a lot of

1129
00:56:45,400 --> 00:56:47,880
Speaker 3: different components to. IT i think there's positives. TOO i

1130
00:56:47,880 --> 00:56:49,880
Speaker 3: think the way that they get better IS i can promise,

1131
00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:52,320
Speaker 3: you AND i don't know. HOW i don't. THINK i

1132
00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:54,080
Speaker 3: don't know if we'll be. GOOD i can promise, You

1133
00:56:54,080 --> 00:56:58,319
Speaker 3: Anthony santander won't be. Worse of, course you're gonna get

1134
00:56:58,320 --> 00:56:59,239
Speaker 3: a full season of our.

1135
00:56:59,280 --> 00:57:00,359
Speaker 4: Show WHO i don't think you should.

1136
00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:02,880
Speaker 3: Trade there's a team that Employed Kevin, kiermeyer and you

1137
00:57:02,960 --> 00:57:04,799
Speaker 3: kind of get him with all the sliders turned up,

1138
00:57:04,800 --> 00:57:09,279
Speaker 3: HERE i understand that he's really inconsistent, offensively but he

1139
00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:12,799
Speaker 3: is really really special out, there and he's gonna run

1140
00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:14,799
Speaker 3: into enough homers and he's gonna give you a ton

1141
00:57:14,840 --> 00:57:20,040
Speaker 3: of value. DEFENSIVELY i don't, know because you, lose you

1142
00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:23,000
Speaker 3: Lose bishet, presumably then it's really hard to get better.

1143
00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:25,720
Speaker 3: There you Bring baschette, back it's really hard to add anything.

1144
00:57:25,760 --> 00:57:28,600
Speaker 3: Else the fact That Shane bieber opted IN i think

1145
00:57:28,640 --> 00:57:31,320
Speaker 3: says a lot about the clubhouse and their situation there

1146
00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:35,080
Speaker 3: and how much people want to play. There, incredible incredible

1147
00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:37,280
Speaker 3: that he did, that and it was cool to. SEE

1148
00:57:38,200 --> 00:57:40,040
Speaker 3: i think the clear way that they get better is

1149
00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:43,840
Speaker 3: they bolster that bullpen. Further and another clear way that

1150
00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:45,440
Speaker 3: they get better Is Ricky tiedeman's gonna be.

1151
00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:47,280
Speaker 4: Healthy And i'm speaking that into.

1152
00:57:47,360 --> 00:57:50,800
Speaker 3: EXISTENCE i think he's gonna be, healthy and whether he's

1153
00:57:51,400 --> 00:57:55,200
Speaker 3: a rotation piece or a bullpen, guy it's an arm

1154
00:57:55,520 --> 00:57:58,120
Speaker 3: that you can utilize that will be helpful and will

1155
00:57:58,120 --> 00:58:00,440
Speaker 3: make you. Better you're gonna get a full Season. Savage

1156
00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:03,120
Speaker 3: Remember Trady savage made three starts at the big league.

1157
00:58:03,160 --> 00:58:07,040
Speaker 3: Level SO i think they'll naturally get a little bit.

1158
00:58:07,080 --> 00:58:08,960
Speaker 3: Better BUT i don't think they need to do anything

1159
00:58:09,040 --> 00:58:12,880
Speaker 3: crazy with that. LINEUP i really do believe that the

1160
00:58:12,920 --> 00:58:15,360
Speaker 3: way that this team gets better is maybe one more

1161
00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:19,600
Speaker 3: arm that you trust and then adding to the, bullpen

1162
00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:23,840
Speaker 3: because your two biggest ADDITIONS i think as a season.

1163
00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:28,080
Speaker 3: Progressed Where Trey savage And Shane bieber they made a

1164
00:58:28,080 --> 00:58:30,320
Speaker 3: combined ten starts for you last, Year you're going to

1165
00:58:30,360 --> 00:58:32,200
Speaker 3: get them for the entirety of the season this coming.

1166
00:58:32,280 --> 00:58:35,680
Speaker 3: Year and that is a huge addition for twenty twenty.

1167
00:58:35,720 --> 00:58:38,880
Speaker 2: Six what do we talk about all month? Long one through?

1168
00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:42,360
Speaker 2: Nine there are minimal weaknesses in This Blue jay, lineup

1169
00:58:42,400 --> 00:58:45,640
Speaker 2: and the weakest link in That Blue jay lineup Was Andre.

1170
00:58:45,720 --> 00:58:49,040
Speaker 2: Seimenez And jimenez is not going. Anywhere he's on one

1171
00:58:49,080 --> 00:58:52,960
Speaker 2: hundred million dollars deal and he's an, elite elite. Defender

1172
00:58:53,520 --> 00:58:57,560
Speaker 2: so there's nowhere that you need to concretely upgrade and,

1173
00:58:57,720 --> 00:59:00,560
Speaker 2: listen If bishett doesn't come, Back you're, right it's really

1174
00:59:00,600 --> 00:59:03,959
Speaker 2: hard to you, know kind of supplement. That so we'll.

1175
00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:06,520
Speaker 2: See but, yeah it feels like the path to success

1176
00:59:06,680 --> 00:59:09,240
Speaker 2: is in that bullpen and not Having Louis varlin throw

1177
00:59:09,240 --> 00:59:11,280
Speaker 2: one hundred and fifteen games like he did this. Year

1178
00:59:11,400 --> 00:59:13,280
Speaker 2: how many games did he throw in, Total i'd be

1179
00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:13,880
Speaker 2: curious to, Me.

1180
00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:15,720
Speaker 3: I'll pitch seventy two. INNINGS i don't know how many.

1181
00:59:15,720 --> 00:59:16,880
Speaker 3: Appearances it was seventy three.

1182
00:59:16,880 --> 00:59:21,560
Speaker 2: Innings, Actually Louis varland this, year AS i pull it,

1183
00:59:21,640 --> 00:59:25,960
Speaker 2: up he made seventy four appearances in the regular season

1184
00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:31,000
Speaker 2: and then you go to the. Postseason seventy four plus

1185
00:59:31,160 --> 00:59:36,240
Speaker 2: fifteen is eighty nine appearances over the course of one calendar.

1186
00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:39,640
Speaker 2: Year Louis, varlin how about his twenty? Five you were

1187
00:59:39,640 --> 00:59:42,200
Speaker 2: on the hill all the freaking. Time find somebody else.

1188
00:59:42,400 --> 00:59:44,360
Speaker 3: That's another guy that didn't. Throw it's on for them.

1189
00:59:44,400 --> 00:59:47,680
Speaker 3: RIGHT a lot of their deadline acquisitions set them up

1190
00:59:47,720 --> 00:59:49,400
Speaker 3: for next year, too and that's WHY i think they're

1191
00:59:49,440 --> 00:59:52,840
Speaker 3: naturally gonna be, better or at, least you, know in

1192
00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:54,000
Speaker 3: a spot where they can be.

1193
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:58,800
Speaker 2: Better, yep. Dork question for, You. Dork this one has

1194
00:59:58,840 --> 01:00:02,200
Speaker 2: to do WITH Ivb. Jared is a high IV b

1195
01:00:02,360 --> 01:00:05,200
Speaker 2: AND dos vertical break fastball something that can be taught

1196
01:00:05,360 --> 01:00:07,720
Speaker 2: or is it just something that a pitcher either does

1197
01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:11,240
Speaker 2: or doesn't naturally. Have and if it is, teachable why

1198
01:00:11,240 --> 01:00:14,959
Speaker 2: don't more guys have HIGH ivyb fastballs your, Show?

1199
01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:18,320
Speaker 3: DORK i think more guys do have HIGH ivb, fastballs,

1200
01:00:18,400 --> 01:00:21,520
Speaker 3: Right so like that's what we're. Seeing but, yes it is,

1201
01:00:21,600 --> 01:00:28,120
Speaker 3: Teachable but here's the interesting balance of. It it's teachable

1202
01:00:28,160 --> 01:00:31,360
Speaker 3: to a point where it's LIKE i think every guy, has,

1203
01:00:32,120 --> 01:00:34,600
Speaker 3: well first of, all either a pronator or. Supernator so

1204
01:00:35,120 --> 01:00:37,560
Speaker 3: if you're a, pronator it's gonna be pretty hard to

1205
01:00:37,560 --> 01:00:40,080
Speaker 3: teach because you're naturally kind of getting over the ball

1206
01:00:40,200 --> 01:00:43,160
Speaker 3: and you're gonna be throwing more sinkers, naturally change up

1207
01:00:43,160 --> 01:00:45,080
Speaker 3: guy thinks like, That Think sandi Al contra in terms

1208
01:00:45,120 --> 01:00:48,080
Speaker 3: of a. Pronator if you're a, supernator that's guys that

1209
01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:50,560
Speaker 3: just tend to cut stuff a little bit more. Naturally

1210
01:00:50,680 --> 01:00:52,520
Speaker 3: those guys it's a little bit easier to stay behind the.

1211
01:00:52,560 --> 01:00:58,400
Speaker 3: Baseball AND i would say Think Kirston, WALDRIP i Think Corbyn,

1212
01:00:58,440 --> 01:00:59,640
Speaker 3: burns think those types of.

1213
01:00:59,640 --> 01:01:02,040
Speaker 4: Guys then you just have the guys.

1214
01:01:01,880 --> 01:01:03,480
Speaker 3: That are a little bit in, between but you're you're

1215
01:01:03,480 --> 01:01:06,120
Speaker 3: always gonna skew on one side, there. RIGHT i think

1216
01:01:06,160 --> 01:01:08,080
Speaker 3: those are the guys that you can find, Like, okay

1217
01:01:08,080 --> 01:01:09,760
Speaker 3: how CAN i stay behind the baseball a little bit?

1218
01:01:09,760 --> 01:01:10,280
Speaker 4: Better you?

1219
01:01:10,320 --> 01:01:12,800
Speaker 3: Know how CAN i work behind the ball and generate

1220
01:01:12,840 --> 01:01:15,680
Speaker 3: more spin? Efficiency you get instant feedback too with Track

1221
01:01:15,720 --> 01:01:17,880
Speaker 3: man and Rap. Soto so you can be throwing these

1222
01:01:17,880 --> 01:01:21,040
Speaker 3: balls and then, say, oh, okay your spin efficiency isn't great,

1223
01:01:21,040 --> 01:01:23,080
Speaker 3: Here like if you make this mechanical adjustment, here and

1224
01:01:23,120 --> 01:01:25,120
Speaker 3: there's people that are way more you, know tapped in

1225
01:01:25,160 --> 01:01:26,960
Speaker 3: that can speak to this a little bit. More but

1226
01:01:27,440 --> 01:01:29,480
Speaker 3: little things that you can do mechanically to improve. That

1227
01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:32,400
Speaker 3: BUT i do think there's just a certain point where

1228
01:01:32,400 --> 01:01:35,520
Speaker 3: you can't get to any more for your personal, ability,

1229
01:01:35,640 --> 01:01:37,640
Speaker 3: Right LIKE i don't think you can just teach everybody

1230
01:01:37,680 --> 01:01:39,720
Speaker 3: how to get twenty plus inches.

1231
01:01:39,480 --> 01:01:42,800
Speaker 4: Of vert or. Whatever it is relative to their release.

1232
01:01:42,840 --> 01:01:45,040
Speaker 3: Height and that's the other thing, too, right it's relative

1233
01:01:45,080 --> 01:01:50,280
Speaker 3: to release. Height, also you don't want to undo what

1234
01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:53,760
Speaker 3: got these pitchers. There they're they're throwing the way that

1235
01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:57,680
Speaker 3: they've always, thrown and in the pursuit of vert if

1236
01:01:57,720 --> 01:02:00,720
Speaker 3: you are now changing the throws and the motion for these,

1237
01:02:00,720 --> 01:02:03,200
Speaker 3: guys it could affect the way that they throw their breaking,

1238
01:02:03,200 --> 01:02:06,600
Speaker 3: Balls it could affect their fastball, command it could make

1239
01:02:06,640 --> 01:02:08,480
Speaker 3: them more likely to get hurt because they're thrown from

1240
01:02:08,480 --> 01:02:12,080
Speaker 3: a different. Angle, like there's a lot of Variable so it's,

1241
01:02:12,640 --> 01:02:16,280
Speaker 3: yes you want to pursue vert but you also don't

1242
01:02:16,280 --> 01:02:18,840
Speaker 3: want to give on some other areas as, well and

1243
01:02:18,880 --> 01:02:22,200
Speaker 3: it's not just that. Easy SO i think that's the difficult.

1244
01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:24,400
Speaker 3: Part BUT i do think it is, teachable AND i

1245
01:02:24,440 --> 01:02:26,720
Speaker 3: think it's something that guys have just found a way

1246
01:02:26,800 --> 01:02:31,200
Speaker 3: to maximize their ability and their ability to.

1247
01:02:31,280 --> 01:02:32,120
Speaker 4: Spin it can be.

1248
01:02:32,200 --> 01:02:35,480
Speaker 3: Different hand size, matters like all these different things can.

1249
01:02:35,520 --> 01:02:39,680
Speaker 2: Matter it seems like every pitcher In Major league baseball

1250
01:02:40,400 --> 01:02:44,640
Speaker 2: skews towards in terms of, ease getting away from the

1251
01:02:44,680 --> 01:02:47,520
Speaker 2: norm and getting away from the dead zone in one particular.

1252
01:02:47,560 --> 01:02:50,000
Speaker 2: Way so there are, guys you, know pretty much Every

1253
01:02:50,000 --> 01:02:52,200
Speaker 2: major league baseball player is a good enough. Athlete if

1254
01:02:52,200 --> 01:02:54,680
Speaker 2: they wanted to addvert to their, fastball they, Can if

1255
01:02:54,680 --> 01:02:57,080
Speaker 2: they wanted to develop a, sinker they. Can't one of

1256
01:02:57,120 --> 01:02:59,680
Speaker 2: them is, easier one of them creates a nastier. Pitch

1257
01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:01,800
Speaker 2: you got to figure out which one is easier for.

1258
01:03:01,840 --> 01:03:04,920
Speaker 2: You Quinn priester in the minor leagues was hunting a

1259
01:03:05,200 --> 01:03:08,320
Speaker 2: four seam. Fastball The pirates were hunting a four seam

1260
01:03:08,360 --> 01:03:11,400
Speaker 2: fastball for, him. Right they were, like all, right let's

1261
01:03:11,400 --> 01:03:14,120
Speaker 2: get vert vert, Vert and it's not. Working it's just dead.

1262
01:03:14,200 --> 01:03:17,200
Speaker 2: Zone it's a bad Four. Seemer so what happens when

1263
01:03:17,240 --> 01:03:20,000
Speaker 2: he goes To, Boston, hey you're a sinker guy, Now

1264
01:03:20,240 --> 01:03:22,280
Speaker 2: and what happens when he makes his way To. Milwaukee

1265
01:03:22,520 --> 01:03:24,480
Speaker 2: he becomes one of the best groundball pitchers In Major

1266
01:03:24,560 --> 01:03:28,120
Speaker 2: League baseball and they won nineteen consecutive games that he

1267
01:03:28,200 --> 01:03:31,120
Speaker 2: started this. Year one of them is easier than the,

1268
01:03:31,160 --> 01:03:34,200
Speaker 2: other and it's dependent on the pitcher to figure out

1269
01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:37,120
Speaker 2: which one that is the other like simple number THAT

1270
01:03:37,160 --> 01:03:40,160
Speaker 2: i didn't realize correlated as much to vert AS i

1271
01:03:40,520 --> 01:03:45,000
Speaker 2: do realize. NOW i had heard tilt a lot over

1272
01:03:45,040 --> 01:03:47,000
Speaker 2: the last couple of, years AND i was, like what is?

1273
01:03:47,080 --> 01:03:52,000
Speaker 2: Tilt And Ryan weathers explained tilt to me. Best If

1274
01:03:52,040 --> 01:03:56,919
Speaker 2: i'm tilting at, eleven which is one o'clock for a right,

1275
01:03:56,960 --> 01:03:59,840
Speaker 2: hander he's at eleven as a. Lefty if you're with

1276
01:03:59,840 --> 01:04:02,440
Speaker 2: the on, YouTube it's just the angle in which your

1277
01:04:02,480 --> 01:04:05,680
Speaker 2: fingers are when the baseball is coming. Off if he's

1278
01:04:05,720 --> 01:04:07,680
Speaker 2: tilting at, eleven he's going to get less furt than

1279
01:04:07,680 --> 01:04:10,160
Speaker 2: if he's tilting at high. Noon if his index in

1280
01:04:10,240 --> 01:04:13,080
Speaker 2: middle are straight up on a four seam, fastball he's

1281
01:04:13,080 --> 01:04:15,480
Speaker 2: going to get more vert than if they're slightly off

1282
01:04:15,520 --> 01:04:18,040
Speaker 2: to the. Side so if he feels like he's lacking,

1283
01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:20,480
Speaker 2: vert how do you add some in the? Moment how

1284
01:04:20,520 --> 01:04:22,200
Speaker 2: do you add some in a single bullpen on the

1285
01:04:22,280 --> 01:04:25,360
Speaker 2: very next pitch by focusing on staying behind the baseball

1286
01:04:25,360 --> 01:04:28,200
Speaker 2: and keeping your fingers. Upright so tilt has a lot

1287
01:04:28,240 --> 01:04:29,960
Speaker 2: more to do with it THAN i ever realized it.

1288
01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:32,320
Speaker 3: Did but if you're a guy that naturally you know

1289
01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:35,320
Speaker 3: their arm is a little bit closer to high three

1290
01:04:35,400 --> 01:04:39,280
Speaker 3: quarters or, whatever you're now trying to create an abnormal

1291
01:04:39,320 --> 01:04:41,560
Speaker 3: throw in the name of. Vert and now you're just

1292
01:04:41,560 --> 01:04:44,480
Speaker 3: making yourself less natural of a, throw, Right.

1293
01:04:44,360 --> 01:04:46,680
Speaker 2: So why not lean into the natural thing and try

1294
01:04:46,720 --> 01:04:48,400
Speaker 2: and get to that sinker which is probably.

1295
01:04:48,440 --> 01:04:50,600
Speaker 3: Easier, Yeah and that's the give and take, there, Right

1296
01:04:50,640 --> 01:04:52,720
Speaker 3: so how CAN i find a little bit more, vert you,

1297
01:04:52,760 --> 01:04:57,040
Speaker 3: know without compromising my? Mechanics and that's, where, guys that's

1298
01:04:57,040 --> 01:04:58,479
Speaker 3: the give and. Take AND i think that's the hard,

1299
01:04:58,480 --> 01:05:00,400
Speaker 3: part and that's what makes it sof. Fun and that's

1300
01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:03,760
Speaker 3: why you've got all these these centers helping.

1301
01:05:03,800 --> 01:05:06,479
Speaker 4: You you Got, tred you got all.

1302
01:05:06,400 --> 01:05:09,520
Speaker 2: Of, them all of. THEM a couple more quick. Ones

1303
01:05:10,400 --> 01:05:14,160
Speaker 2: this one is also From. Discord it has to do

1304
01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:18,240
Speaker 2: with storylines, simply And this is From ryan, simply what

1305
01:05:18,320 --> 01:05:20,880
Speaker 2: were your favorite three storylines this year that as to

1306
01:05:20,920 --> 01:05:22,840
Speaker 2: the beginning of the, year what were your favorite storylines

1307
01:05:22,880 --> 01:05:25,240
Speaker 2: would be coming into the. Season so this is kind

1308
01:05:25,280 --> 01:05:28,800
Speaker 2: of like reviewing the. Work the twenty twenty five season

1309
01:05:28,880 --> 01:05:31,080
Speaker 2: is in the. Rearview what were your favorite storylines from this?

1310
01:05:31,240 --> 01:05:33,680
Speaker 2: Year the one THAT i threw you before we hit

1311
01:05:33,720 --> 01:05:37,000
Speaker 2: the record button that you jumped all over in agreement

1312
01:05:37,640 --> 01:05:41,560
Speaker 2: was the pitch. Ability lefty is freaking. Back Matt boyd

1313
01:05:41,640 --> 01:05:43,200
Speaker 2: was An All star and one of the best pitchers in.

1314
01:05:43,240 --> 01:05:48,920
Speaker 2: Baseball Ranger suarez. Carved Christopher sanchez is probably going to

1315
01:05:49,000 --> 01:05:51,720
Speaker 2: finish second In National league Scy Young award. Voting there

1316
01:05:51,720 --> 01:05:55,000
Speaker 2: are so many lefties that dominated this, year and there

1317
01:05:55,000 --> 01:05:58,240
Speaker 2: are some high octane lefties that killed right Schoobl. Crochet

1318
01:05:58,400 --> 01:06:00,680
Speaker 2: those are the best two, examples but there were so

1319
01:06:00,840 --> 01:06:07,800
Speaker 2: many stuffy chess match lefties that shoved this. Year and

1320
01:06:07,920 --> 01:06:10,280
Speaker 2: is it because everybody else is a writing that's going

1321
01:06:10,320 --> 01:06:12,920
Speaker 2: four seems slider and it's high spin and high carry

1322
01:06:12,960 --> 01:06:16,680
Speaker 2: and it's hard and. Harder it's just such a. DEVIATION

1323
01:06:16,840 --> 01:06:18,840
Speaker 2: i feel like it almost like finally caught up to

1324
01:06:18,840 --> 01:06:19,560
Speaker 2: the modern age of.

1325
01:06:19,600 --> 01:06:23,600
Speaker 3: Baseball it's it's. WILD i don't AND i. Was i've

1326
01:06:23,640 --> 01:06:25,760
Speaker 3: been talking to some people about. It it's, like can

1327
01:06:25,800 --> 01:06:28,680
Speaker 3: you quantify? It like some people with teams even they're,

1328
01:06:28,720 --> 01:06:30,440
Speaker 3: like we talk about it all the time in the.

1329
01:06:30,440 --> 01:06:32,800
Speaker 4: Office we have no, idea like we're trying to figure it.

1330
01:06:32,840 --> 01:06:34,960
Speaker 3: OUT i think it's just, different, Right AND i THINK

1331
01:06:35,000 --> 01:06:36,560
Speaker 3: i think that's a big part of it is in

1332
01:06:36,600 --> 01:06:38,520
Speaker 3: the in the pursuit of trying to cover vert and

1333
01:06:39,000 --> 01:06:43,040
Speaker 3: stuffy guys like the command and pitch, ability it just

1334
01:06:43,120 --> 01:06:44,560
Speaker 3: ended up becoming a factor.

1335
01:06:44,560 --> 01:06:45,800
Speaker 4: Here that's WHY i always say baseball.

1336
01:06:45,840 --> 01:06:49,200
Speaker 3: Cyclical you get so far away from sometimes where you

1337
01:06:49,320 --> 01:06:52,400
Speaker 3: used to be trying to create a new edge and

1338
01:06:52,440 --> 01:06:54,520
Speaker 3: match that edge that other guys are trying to, create

1339
01:06:54,600 --> 01:06:57,240
Speaker 3: that the thing that you know used to be really

1340
01:06:57,280 --> 01:06:59,320
Speaker 3: common becomes uncommon and now that's.

1341
01:06:59,360 --> 01:06:59,760
Speaker 4: Typical.

1342
01:07:00,320 --> 01:07:03,480
Speaker 3: Uh it's funny because this isn't the best, barometer but

1343
01:07:03,600 --> 01:07:06,800
Speaker 3: right handed, pitchers you, know dating back to twenty, fifteen

1344
01:07:07,160 --> 01:07:11,200
Speaker 3: right handed pitchers had a four like compared To i'm

1345
01:07:11,200 --> 01:07:12,280
Speaker 3: trying to think of the best way to say. This

1346
01:07:12,320 --> 01:07:13,960
Speaker 3: in twenty, fifteen right handed pitchers had a three nine

1347
01:07:14,040 --> 01:07:18,120
Speaker 3: NINE era and the ten or eleven season since, then

1348
01:07:19,080 --> 01:07:21,440
Speaker 3: twenty twenty, five right handed pitchers had the seventh HIGHEST

1349
01:07:21,640 --> 01:07:22,760
Speaker 3: ri it was a.

1350
01:07:22,720 --> 01:07:23,360
Speaker 4: Four point two.

1351
01:07:23,440 --> 01:07:25,959
Speaker 3: Eight the only higher seasons in that regard with twenty twenty,

1352
01:07:25,960 --> 01:07:30,000
Speaker 3: three twenty, seventeen twenty twenty and twenty. Nineteen left handed

1353
01:07:30,040 --> 01:07:34,480
Speaker 3: pitchers this past year had a three eight FOUR. Era

1354
01:07:34,640 --> 01:07:38,520
Speaker 3: that's the lowest in a. Decade that's just interesting to,

1355
01:07:38,560 --> 01:07:41,640
Speaker 3: Me like a three eight, four like it's a half run.

1356
01:07:41,680 --> 01:07:45,280
Speaker 3: Difference three at FOUR era is the lowest for left

1357
01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:50,720
Speaker 3: handed pitching since twenty. Fifteen so three eight, SEVEN i.

1358
01:07:50,680 --> 01:07:51,360
Speaker 4: Don't know what it.

1359
01:07:51,440 --> 01:07:53,680
Speaker 3: IS i don't know what, happened but, lefties and it

1360
01:07:53,800 --> 01:07:56,880
Speaker 3: wasn't just the top guys right Like Parker messek comes

1361
01:07:56,960 --> 01:07:57,480
Speaker 3: up and gets.

1362
01:07:57,480 --> 01:07:59,439
Speaker 4: Out It's Andrew abbott now became a top.

1363
01:07:59,520 --> 01:08:03,560
Speaker 3: Guy it just it just is. Fascinating gintana continues just

1364
01:08:03,600 --> 01:08:05,320
Speaker 3: go out there and get. Out BUT i thought it

1365
01:08:05,400 --> 01:08:08,960
Speaker 3: was really, interesting just the discrepancy between AND i know

1366
01:08:09,000 --> 01:08:10,880
Speaker 3: sometimes you, know you get a lot more left on left.

1367
01:08:10,920 --> 01:08:13,440
Speaker 3: Matchups relievers could skew that a little, bit but not

1368
01:08:13,680 --> 01:08:16,720
Speaker 3: enough to throw off a whole sample size here four

1369
01:08:16,760 --> 01:08:19,639
Speaker 3: two EIGHTY r for right handed pitching this past year

1370
01:08:19,720 --> 01:08:22,000
Speaker 3: and like a three eight four for left handed pitching this.

1371
01:08:22,080 --> 01:08:24,519
Speaker 3: YEAR i think that's pretty. Incredible and for the first

1372
01:08:24,520 --> 01:08:28,320
Speaker 3: time since twenty, fifteen a sub for era for left handed.

1373
01:08:28,320 --> 01:08:31,760
Speaker 2: Pitching that's so damn. Cool and you, know, hey you know,

1374
01:08:31,800 --> 01:08:34,599
Speaker 2: what it really helps that some of the best pitchers

1375
01:08:34,600 --> 01:08:36,639
Speaker 2: on the planet and some of the guys that were

1376
01:08:36,720 --> 01:08:40,160
Speaker 2: anchors in terms of lowering that era are left. Handed

1377
01:08:40,280 --> 01:08:44,040
Speaker 2: Schooble Crochet abbott was one of the era leaders to your,

1378
01:08:44,040 --> 01:08:46,240
Speaker 2: Point Max freed one of the era leaders for the

1379
01:08:46,280 --> 01:08:49,639
Speaker 2: majority of the. Season but, like if we go back

1380
01:08:49,640 --> 01:08:52,880
Speaker 2: to the, cellarything it's the mid Level Matthew boyd coming

1381
01:08:52,880 --> 01:08:53,519
Speaker 2: out of freaking.

1382
01:08:53,680 --> 01:08:57,800
Speaker 3: Nowhere it's still an eleven seven and ninety one inning

1383
01:08:57,840 --> 01:08:58,559
Speaker 3: and two thirds.

1384
01:08:58,960 --> 01:09:02,240
Speaker 2: Sample, Yes like those guys can't drag it all. Down

1385
01:09:02,320 --> 01:09:04,720
Speaker 2: that is top to. Bottom they were just better than

1386
01:09:04,840 --> 01:09:08,120
Speaker 2: radies this, year which is, fascinating and they've been as

1387
01:09:08,120 --> 01:09:11,240
Speaker 2: good as they have been in a, decade so really really.

1388
01:09:11,280 --> 01:09:14,840
Speaker 2: Cool two more questions or, No we've got a couple more.

1389
01:09:14,880 --> 01:09:17,960
Speaker 2: Storylines that was only our first. Storyline the second one was.

1390
01:09:18,000 --> 01:09:21,200
Speaker 2: SIMPLE a catcher hit sixty homers this, year like Watching

1391
01:09:21,320 --> 01:09:23,559
Speaker 2: Cal rawley Do that was utterly.

1392
01:09:23,600 --> 01:09:25,800
Speaker 3: Insane, YEAH i mean the amount of discourse that it.

1393
01:09:25,880 --> 01:09:28,400
Speaker 3: CREATED i think the regardless of what happens to THE,

1394
01:09:28,479 --> 01:09:33,880
Speaker 3: mvp just the fact that somebody could Challenge judge and

1395
01:09:34,040 --> 01:09:36,360
Speaker 3: just to have an all time season from that position

1396
01:09:36,960 --> 01:09:40,600
Speaker 3: was just such a fun buzz and just another storyline

1397
01:09:40,600 --> 01:09:43,240
Speaker 3: that just created so much more excitement and something to

1398
01:09:43,280 --> 01:09:45,920
Speaker 3: follow In Major League. BASEBALL i, think without a, doubt

1399
01:09:45,920 --> 01:09:49,040
Speaker 3: that's one of the best storylines that we've had in multiple.

1400
01:09:49,080 --> 01:09:51,160
Speaker 3: Years and THEN i think The Blue jays as a

1401
01:09:51,160 --> 01:09:53,400
Speaker 3: whole are just a great storyline because if you asked

1402
01:09:53,400 --> 01:09:54,760
Speaker 3: me before the, SEASON i would have said them more

1403
01:09:54,800 --> 01:09:56,920
Speaker 3: likely to finish in last than. First AND i definitely

1404
01:09:56,920 --> 01:09:58,599
Speaker 3: would have said them more likely to finish last than

1405
01:09:58,640 --> 01:09:59,360
Speaker 3: to make it to The World.

1406
01:09:59,400 --> 01:10:00,439
Speaker 4: Series that's what they.

1407
01:10:00,479 --> 01:10:03,240
Speaker 3: Do and then within that all the little wrinkles within

1408
01:10:03,280 --> 01:10:05,120
Speaker 3: The Blue, jays The Ernie clement story is one of

1409
01:10:05,160 --> 01:10:06,960
Speaker 3: the best postseasons of all, time even with the additional.

1410
01:10:07,000 --> 01:10:10,040
Speaker 3: GAMES i don't Care vladdie living up to the contract

1411
01:10:10,120 --> 01:10:11,280
Speaker 3: in like this first. YEAR i know he was going

1412
01:10:11,320 --> 01:10:14,040
Speaker 3: to do it, more but that was so. SPECIAL i

1413
01:10:14,120 --> 01:10:16,800
Speaker 3: also would have Dfa George springer last, Year so Everything

1414
01:10:16,840 --> 01:10:18,720
Speaker 3: Blue jays, RELATED i don't, KNOW i don't know, shit

1415
01:10:19,479 --> 01:10:21,880
Speaker 3: and he was one of the best players in baseball

1416
01:10:21,920 --> 01:10:22,280
Speaker 3: this year.

1417
01:10:22,320 --> 01:10:23,479
Speaker 4: PERIOD i just.

1418
01:10:23,439 --> 01:10:26,320
Speaker 3: Think at thirty five years, old to be able to

1419
01:10:26,560 --> 01:10:29,040
Speaker 3: find that WHEN i thought you were he was left

1420
01:10:29,080 --> 01:10:31,599
Speaker 3: for dead the last couple of. YEARS i just Think

1421
01:10:32,080 --> 01:10:34,639
Speaker 3: springer and The Blue jays in general just just such

1422
01:10:34,640 --> 01:10:37,960
Speaker 3: a unique and fun. Story and THEN i, think just

1423
01:10:38,080 --> 01:10:40,640
Speaker 3: kind of tying that In Trey Y savage made The

1424
01:10:40,680 --> 01:10:42,760
Speaker 3: Blue jays really fun And i'm kind of stealing one

1425
01:10:42,800 --> 01:10:43,120
Speaker 3: from you.

1426
01:10:43,080 --> 01:10:46,799
Speaker 4: Here but like we talked about it before we, recorded the.

1427
01:10:46,680 --> 01:10:49,960
Speaker 3: Youth movement In Major League baseball is in a it

1428
01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:52,919
Speaker 3: is it is, powerful and we are in a, really,

1429
01:10:53,040 --> 01:10:54,080
Speaker 3: really really good.

1430
01:10:54,080 --> 01:10:55,200
Speaker 4: Spot WHERE i was.

1431
01:10:55,120 --> 01:10:57,400
Speaker 3: Gonna, say is Like Nick kurt's's, storyline not really because

1432
01:10:57,400 --> 01:11:00,280
Speaker 3: they didn't do much as a, team but he a

1433
01:11:00,320 --> 01:11:02,880
Speaker 3: guy that in one hundred and seventeen games put up

1434
01:11:02,880 --> 01:11:04,920
Speaker 3: a one to SEVENTY wrc plus as a. Rookie he

1435
01:11:04,920 --> 01:11:07,000
Speaker 3: was in the twenty twenty four draft. Class we're seeing

1436
01:11:07,000 --> 01:11:10,479
Speaker 3: players drafted getting to the big leagues faster than, ever

1437
01:11:10,720 --> 01:11:14,800
Speaker 3: faster than, Ever we're seeing guys make an impact faster than,

1438
01:11:14,800 --> 01:11:18,800
Speaker 3: ever and we're seeing young players continue to do things

1439
01:11:18,840 --> 01:11:22,719
Speaker 3: that we've never really, seen whether it's Just savage almost

1440
01:11:22,760 --> 01:11:25,960
Speaker 3: winning A World series on the, Mound nolan McLain i

1441
01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:28,000
Speaker 3: think would have done the same thing if The mets didn't.

1442
01:11:28,000 --> 01:11:32,080
Speaker 3: Suck you look At Roman anthony he WAS i think

1443
01:11:32,120 --> 01:11:35,280
Speaker 3: his injury derailed The Red. Sox we're talking about rookies

1444
01:11:35,360 --> 01:11:37,559
Speaker 3: year that you should never play that much importance. On

1445
01:11:38,000 --> 01:11:41,479
Speaker 3: there is so much, talent young talent Major league, baseball

1446
01:11:41,520 --> 01:11:44,800
Speaker 3: AND i thought we really saw that this year across the,

1447
01:11:44,840 --> 01:11:47,360
Speaker 3: board where almost like A Cad horton who might, Win

1448
01:11:47,400 --> 01:11:49,000
Speaker 3: you're probably gonna Win rookie of The, year And Drake

1449
01:11:49,000 --> 01:11:51,280
Speaker 3: baldwin is gonna be the runner. Round we're almost forgotten

1450
01:11:51,320 --> 01:11:54,320
Speaker 3: because their years weren't as sexy as some of these

1451
01:11:54,360 --> 01:11:56,479
Speaker 3: other guys that came up and just flashed some incredible.

1452
01:11:56,479 --> 01:11:59,400
Speaker 2: Stuff, well and guys that fall further down the totem. Pole,

1454
01:12:03,280 --> 01:12:05,240
Speaker 2: player this. Year he was not a top one hundred

1455
01:12:05,240 --> 01:12:08,479
Speaker 2: prospect in baseball coming into the. Year was he No Marsi,

1456
01:12:09,160 --> 01:12:11,920
Speaker 2: Right marci solidified himself as a building block for a

1457
01:12:11,960 --> 01:12:15,400
Speaker 2: Major league baseball. Team for the next, five, ten fifteen,

1458
01:12:15,479 --> 01:12:18,679
Speaker 2: years and he wasn't sniffing the top one hundred prospects

1459
01:12:18,680 --> 01:12:21,439
Speaker 2: at the beginning of the. Year guy Like Augustine ramirez coming.

1460
01:12:21,520 --> 01:12:23,200
Speaker 2: UP i know the catching wasn't, great but this dude

1475
01:13:01,640 --> 01:13:03,800
Speaker 2: THAT i want to throw. You in terms of, STORYLINES

1476
01:13:04,200 --> 01:13:06,519
Speaker 2: i JUST i found myself checking in on them all the,

1477
01:13:06,600 --> 01:13:10,320
Speaker 2: time not building off the pitchability lefty thing because he

1478
01:13:10,360 --> 01:13:14,559
Speaker 2: throws ninety seven to ninety. Eight Christopher sanchez took a

1479
01:13:14,600 --> 01:13:17,680
Speaker 2: really long time to become the pitcher he is right.

1480
01:13:17,720 --> 01:13:22,639
Speaker 2: Now this guy was a non factor three years ago

1481
01:13:23,280 --> 01:13:27,160
Speaker 2: and then he's now on the most team friendly contract

1482
01:13:27,160 --> 01:13:30,439
Speaker 2: In Major League. Baseball he was like bouncing. Around he

1483
01:13:30,479 --> 01:13:34,479
Speaker 2: was dfa candidate for a while, here and he became

1484
01:13:35,200 --> 01:13:38,320
Speaker 2: a top five arm in the. Game and every single

1485
01:13:38,400 --> 01:13:40,880
Speaker 2: TIME i got to Watch Christopher sanchez throw for The Philadelphia,

1486
01:13:40,880 --> 01:13:43,960
Speaker 2: PHILLIES i was. Enamored he has two. Pitches they moved

1487
01:13:44,000 --> 01:13:47,320
Speaker 2: the same. Way it's a sinker and a. Changeup they're

1488
01:13:47,360 --> 01:13:50,200
Speaker 2: just ten miles an hour. Apart and, again like the

1489
01:13:50,240 --> 01:13:53,360
Speaker 2: movement profile is. Identical he just has you playing a

1490
01:13:53,400 --> 01:13:56,920
Speaker 2: guessing game for seven, eight nine innings and it was

1491
01:13:57,040 --> 01:13:59,120
Speaker 2: roll out of bed eight, innings a one run, ball

1492
01:13:59,200 --> 01:14:01,080
Speaker 2: seven innings of one run, ball eight. Eight he's a

1493
01:14:01,120 --> 01:14:05,160
Speaker 2: two run. Ball clockwork For Christopher. Sanchez it fascinated me

1494
01:14:05,320 --> 01:14:07,400
Speaker 2: every single time he got the. Ball and then the

1495
01:14:07,439 --> 01:14:10,240
Speaker 2: other one Is joe. Adel The Joe adel' breakout was

1496
01:14:10,360 --> 01:14:11,840
Speaker 2: really fun for me to keep tabs.

1497
01:14:11,880 --> 01:14:14,479
Speaker 3: On, yeah that was cool to, see even though it's

1498
01:14:14,520 --> 01:14:16,360
Speaker 3: STILL i. DON'T i don't EVEN i still don't know

1499
01:14:16,360 --> 01:14:16,920
Speaker 3: If i'm buying.

1500
01:14:16,920 --> 01:14:20,599
Speaker 2: It, sure that's, fun you, know we're just flirting with forty,

1501
01:14:20,960 --> 01:14:22,559
Speaker 2: yeah which is you got to buy, that.

1502
01:14:22,680 --> 01:14:25,479
Speaker 3: RIGHT i think The sanchez thing is so cool because

1503
01:14:25,479 --> 01:14:26,679
Speaker 3: it went from a point on how do you Trade

1504
01:14:26,720 --> 01:14:29,760
Speaker 3: Curtis mead for? Him and now it's, like how did

1505
01:14:29,800 --> 01:14:31,839
Speaker 3: you trade him For Curtis? Mead?

1506
01:14:32,080 --> 01:14:33,120
Speaker 4: Uh and it was the?

1507
01:14:33,200 --> 01:14:35,719
Speaker 3: Raise? Right SO i think that's the really fun part

1508
01:14:35,720 --> 01:14:38,200
Speaker 3: of this whole thing is you just you never, Know

1509
01:14:38,280 --> 01:14:41,599
Speaker 3: and in baseball, specifically just so many different players can

1510
01:14:41,800 --> 01:14:44,840
Speaker 3: break out or turn things around or or whatever it may.

1511
01:14:44,880 --> 01:14:46,760
Speaker 3: Be AND i think the last one for me was Just.

1512
01:14:46,880 --> 01:14:50,120
Speaker 3: Buxton byron bucks what one hundred and twenty six games

1513
01:14:50,360 --> 01:14:52,519
Speaker 3: and most of those were in center field and he

1514
01:14:52,560 --> 01:14:54,720
Speaker 3: went thirty, five almost twenty, one thirty five to twenty

1515
01:14:54,720 --> 01:14:58,160
Speaker 3: four home run stolen bases five. WAR i would have

1516
01:14:58,360 --> 01:15:01,000
Speaker 3: never thought it was happening at this, point, Right, like

1517
01:15:01,280 --> 01:15:04,759
Speaker 3: If Byron buxton can't play one hundred games in center

1518
01:15:04,800 --> 01:15:08,439
Speaker 3: field at age twenty nine, thirty why is he going

1519
01:15:08,479 --> 01:15:09,920
Speaker 3: to do it at thirty? ONE i don't know what

1520
01:15:10,040 --> 01:15:12,240
Speaker 3: he did, it and JUST i know it was a

1521
01:15:12,280 --> 01:15:14,720
Speaker 3: shitty season for The, twins but we just kept saying

1522
01:15:14,760 --> 01:15:16,400
Speaker 3: on WHY i would just love to see him playing

1523
01:15:16,400 --> 01:15:19,360
Speaker 3: more games and not have TO dh most of. Them

1524
01:15:19,439 --> 01:15:22,519
Speaker 3: and here he was playing a full season almost and

1525
01:15:22,800 --> 01:15:23,439
Speaker 3: it was awesome to.

1526
01:15:23,479 --> 01:15:27,240
Speaker 2: Watch, yep all, right two more questions here to wrap us.

1527
01:15:27,320 --> 01:15:29,640

01:15:49,840 --> 01:15:51,839
Speaker 2: creator is the right. Word he's one of the best

1535
01:15:51,880 --> 01:15:55,439
Speaker 2: content people that we have in. Sports But Kenny beacham

1536
01:15:55,479 --> 01:15:57,640
Speaker 2: asked this question On twitter a couple of years, AGO i,

1537
01:15:57,640 --> 01:15:59,960
Speaker 2: think And vic sent it to us from a baseball

1538
01:16:01,200 --> 01:16:04,400
Speaker 2: if your favorite team could have one transaction redo from

1539
01:16:04,400 --> 01:16:07,479
Speaker 2: the last ten, years what would it? Be and that

1540
01:16:07,520 --> 01:16:10,680
Speaker 2: could be a, draft that could be free, agency that

1541
01:16:10,720 --> 01:16:13,040
Speaker 2: could be a. Trade and that just got me thinking

1542
01:16:13,080 --> 01:16:16,280
Speaker 2: about the, trades Like Christopher santez For Curtis meat and

1543
01:16:16,320 --> 01:16:20,880
Speaker 2: that got me thinking About Fernando Tatist junior For James

1544
01:16:20,880 --> 01:16:23,639
Speaker 2: shields And Eric, johnson and that got me thinking About

1545
01:16:23,680 --> 01:16:27,240
Speaker 2: Junior camonero For Tobias. MYERS i was just thinking about

1546
01:16:27,280 --> 01:16:29,920
Speaker 2: the best what ifs that we have in recent. Memory

1547
01:16:30,160 --> 01:16:32,680
Speaker 2: do people know That Jordan alvarez was A? Dodger do

1548
01:16:32,760 --> 01:16:36,000
Speaker 2: people know That Onnel cruz was A? Dodger That there's

1549
01:16:36,120 --> 01:16:40,160
Speaker 2: so many fun ones that you can just look back

1550
01:16:40,240 --> 01:16:42,160
Speaker 2: on and, say, oh you, know what if we drafted

1551
01:16:42,160 --> 01:16:44,200
Speaker 2: this guy instead of this? Guy what if we held

1552
01:16:44,240 --> 01:16:46,200
Speaker 2: on to this. Guy what if we didn't trade this

1553
01:16:46,280 --> 01:16:49,200
Speaker 2: prospect for, this you know. Reliever are there any that

1554
01:16:49,280 --> 01:16:50,120
Speaker 2: jump to your mind like?

1555
01:16:50,160 --> 01:16:52,400
Speaker 3: THAT a lot of mine are not in the last,

1556
01:16:52,439 --> 01:16:56,200
Speaker 3: decade you, know like, that a lot of. THEM i

1557
01:16:56,280 --> 01:16:59,640
Speaker 3: go To miggy and there's so many of. THIS i

1558
01:16:59,680 --> 01:17:05,120
Speaker 3: think the one that that there's two It's yellowich And Real.

1559
01:17:05,200 --> 01:17:07,320
Speaker 3: MUTO i think WHEN i look at The, marlins BECAUSE

1560
01:17:08,680 --> 01:17:11,480
Speaker 3: i Think Real MUTO i could understand a little bit more.

1561
01:17:13,400 --> 01:17:15,839
Speaker 4: Given where they were at with. Him The yellowich.

1562
01:17:15,920 --> 01:17:20,360
Speaker 3: One it's not really just about the. RETURN i know people, say,

1563
01:17:20,360 --> 01:17:22,680
Speaker 3: Well yellwich wanted, out who. Cares what's he going to

1564
01:17:22,800 --> 01:17:25,720
Speaker 3: not show up to the. Ballpark you extended him for

1565
01:17:25,760 --> 01:17:30,719
Speaker 3: seven years like fifty million dollars and to trade him

1566
01:17:31,200 --> 01:17:35,200
Speaker 3: to The brewers for the package that they, got Which

1567
01:17:35,200 --> 01:17:38,640
Speaker 3: i've talked about a. Lot, right it's a guy out of,

1568
01:17:38,640 --> 01:17:42,479
Speaker 3: baseball a guy playing football For, arkansas a guy that

1569
01:17:42,880 --> 01:17:45,040
Speaker 3: was out of baseball now is back in affiliated, ball

1570
01:17:45,080 --> 01:17:47,760
Speaker 3: and a guy that's coaching high school. Baseball this trade

1571
01:17:47,840 --> 01:17:51,800
Speaker 3: wasn't fifteen years, ago was now seven years. Ago. Less

1572
01:17:52,800 --> 01:17:55,280
Speaker 3: that's the one THAT i think really set the franchise

1573
01:17:55,760 --> 01:17:58,280
Speaker 3: back when you're talking about the process of trying to rebuild,

1574
01:17:58,280 --> 01:18:02,000
Speaker 3: there because, like you had a budding star AND i

1575
01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:03,960
Speaker 3: think EVERYONE i don't think everyone knew that he was

1576
01:18:04,000 --> 01:18:05,880
Speaker 3: going to be AN mvp, Candidate but it was funny

1577
01:18:05,920 --> 01:18:08,280
Speaker 3: WHEN i was Doing marlin stuff at the. Time the

1578
01:18:08,400 --> 01:18:10,720
Speaker 3: year before his final year with The, marlins he was

1579
01:18:10,800 --> 01:18:12,719
Speaker 3: my dark HORSE mvp.

1580
01:18:12,840 --> 01:18:13,280
Speaker 4: Pick didn't.

1581
01:18:13,280 --> 01:18:15,240
Speaker 3: Happen he had a really nice year, anyways but then

1582
01:18:15,280 --> 01:18:17,080
Speaker 3: the next year he WAS i think a lot of

1583
01:18:17,120 --> 01:18:20,200
Speaker 3: people In marlins land knew that he had that upside in,

1584
01:18:20,280 --> 01:18:24,559
Speaker 3: him and then you had him with control very. Cheap

1585
01:18:25,280 --> 01:18:27,560
Speaker 3: that was the one where it's like you could have

1586
01:18:27,720 --> 01:18:30,280
Speaker 3: rebuilt with him as a constant and still you, know

1587
01:18:30,680 --> 01:18:32,680
Speaker 3: been in a good, spot and then to whiff on the.

1588
01:18:32,720 --> 01:18:36,559
Speaker 3: Trade that's the one THAT i think Hants marlins fans

1589
01:18:36,560 --> 01:18:39,240
Speaker 3: as much as ANY i think is that, one because

1590
01:18:39,240 --> 01:18:41,320
Speaker 3: you just can't come up empty if you're going to

1591
01:18:41,360 --> 01:18:43,200
Speaker 3: make that trade when you have all those years of

1592
01:18:43,240 --> 01:18:45,880
Speaker 3: control and you know it's it's a good. SPOT i

1593
01:18:45,920 --> 01:18:48,720
Speaker 3: know the contract is age a little, bit but like

1594
01:18:48,800 --> 01:18:51,880
Speaker 3: if The brewers are taking that extension and tacking on another,

1595
01:18:51,920 --> 01:18:53,080
Speaker 3: extension they never do.

1596
01:18:53,160 --> 01:18:54,400
Speaker 4: THAT i think that says a.

1597
01:18:54,400 --> 01:18:59,200
Speaker 2: Lot, Yeah i'm one hundred percent with. You, yeah growing,

1598

1607
01:19:28,800 --> 01:19:33,360

1608
01:19:33,439 --> 01:19:36,880

Speaker 2: Anderson amonkata And Alloy jimenez And Luis robert and the

1610

Speaker 2: lynn they Had dylan See. Gilito that team was. Loaded

1612
01:19:47,280 --> 01:19:49,599
Speaker 2: and if you add a Young tatis to that, fold

1613
01:19:50,040 --> 01:19:52,320
Speaker 2: what does that team look? Like is it still? Together

1614
01:19:52,400 --> 01:19:54,639

1617
01:19:59,760 --> 01:20:03,080

1619
01:20:04,880 --> 01:20:07,760
Speaker 3: Answer, Yeah and THEN i would say. Probably and at

1620
01:20:07,760 --> 01:20:10,000
Speaker 3: the time it looked like a great a great Gat

1621
01:20:10,040 --> 01:20:13,880
Speaker 3: but also there was SOME i think info that could

1622
01:20:13,920 --> 01:20:17,559
Speaker 3: have been sourced at the. Time maybe picking someone other

1623
01:20:17,640 --> 01:20:19,240
Speaker 3: than six to zero is the headliner for the Real

1624
01:20:19,320 --> 01:20:22,400

1626
01:20:24,400 --> 01:20:26,679

1627
01:20:26,680 --> 01:20:31,320
Speaker 3: of arm, issues there were work ethic, questions AND i

1628
01:20:31,360 --> 01:20:33,519

Speaker 2: mascot would? WIN i like this question a. LOT i

1643
01:21:08,600 --> 01:21:11,240

1645

1646
01:21:15,200 --> 01:21:15,599
Speaker 4: you need.

1647
01:21:15,520 --> 01:21:18,599
Speaker 2: To you need to source, food you need To it's

1648
01:21:18,720 --> 01:21:21,160
Speaker 2: it's in every man for, themselves fight to the. Death

1649
01:21:21,400 --> 01:21:25,400
Speaker 2: like if you threw every mascot in the, octagon it's

1650
01:21:25,439 --> 01:21:28,479
Speaker 2: not it's not about, survival it's about killing everybody.

1651
01:21:28,479 --> 01:21:35,000
Speaker 3: Else, Okay So i'm honestly surprised that there hasn't been

1652
01:21:35,040 --> 01:21:37,600
Speaker 3: like a lawsuit with The marlins of Like billy The

1653
01:21:37,640 --> 01:21:39,960
Speaker 3: marlin accidentally like poking a kid in the eye or

1654
01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:40,400
Speaker 3: something like.

1655
01:21:40,400 --> 01:21:44,760
Speaker 2: That billy looks a little. Dangerous he's really. LIABILITY i

1656
01:21:44,760 --> 01:21:47,200
Speaker 2: don't know if it's a liability because he knows where that.

1657
01:21:47,360 --> 01:21:47,640
Speaker 2: Where that.

1658
01:21:47,720 --> 01:21:50,720
Speaker 4: Schna he's got good snout. AWARENESS i don't, know.

1659
01:21:50,840 --> 01:21:55,920
Speaker 2: He's got good schna's eye. Coordination what do you be

1660
01:21:56,880 --> 01:22:00,160
Speaker 2: Bi Bill? Bill because It's billy.

1661
01:22:00,800 --> 01:22:03,040
Speaker 4: Our twenty at the podcast, here it.

1662
01:22:03,080 --> 01:22:06,640
Speaker 3: Does but he can just, like, YEAH i think you

1663
01:22:06,720 --> 01:22:10,720
Speaker 3: could not out right like that gimmick that the fanatic

1664
01:22:10,760 --> 01:22:14,280
Speaker 3: has with like the stomach like hip.

1665
01:22:14,320 --> 01:22:16,920
Speaker 4: Pump that's not doing, Shit SO i.

1666
01:22:17,160 --> 01:22:20,439
Speaker 3: DON'T i think the best weapon that any of these

1667
01:22:20,479 --> 01:22:23,280
Speaker 3: mascots have Is Billy's.

1668
01:22:22,840 --> 01:22:26,800
Speaker 2: BILL i would think. So the other one is The

1669
01:22:26,880 --> 01:22:30,719
Speaker 2: padres have the swing In, fryar, right and That frar

1670
01:22:30,800 --> 01:22:34,040
Speaker 2: holds a. Bat that's a legit, weapon AND i think

1671
01:22:34,040 --> 01:22:36,920
Speaker 2: that's the only weapon that is used by any. Mascot

1672
01:22:37,000 --> 01:22:39,400
Speaker 2: BUT i would, say in terms of what you already

1673
01:22:39,400 --> 01:22:42,760
Speaker 2: have on your, Person billy The marlin feels like the

1674
01:22:42,800 --> 01:22:45,400
Speaker 2: way to go about. It The brewers also have two.

1675
01:22:45,400 --> 01:22:47,880
Speaker 2: Mascots they Have, bernie who hangs out in his chalet

1676
01:22:47,960 --> 01:22:51,640
Speaker 2: and he's gone. Immediately they have another, GUY i think

1677
01:22:51,720 --> 01:22:55,280
Speaker 2: called like the Barrel man or. Something and this, guy his,

1678
01:22:55,479 --> 01:22:58,600
Speaker 2: body his torso is just a wooden, barrel so you

1679
