1
00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:03,280
Speaker 1: How's it going, everybody. I know a lot of you

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:06,480
Speaker 1: are ticked off at the way glaber Torres has been playing,

3
00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:08,640
Speaker 1: But look at it this way. If he goes on

4
00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:10,520
Speaker 1: to Wheel of Fortune, at least he won't need to

5
00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: buy any ease. He's already got twelve of them.

6
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:20,720
Speaker 2: I'm sure you've got a lot of calls about this,

7
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:24,520
Speaker 2: but Glaber Torres has got to go. I mean, we

8
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:29,000
Speaker 2: got oswald Oswolo Cabrera sitting on the bench and he's

9
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:31,560
Speaker 2: a better player than at least three the people that

10
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:34,080
Speaker 2: were in there tonight. Why isn't he in the game?

11
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 2: I'll tell you why. Because Aaron Boom couldn't manage a

12
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,320
Speaker 2: garage sale and he needs to be the next guy

13
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 2: to go. I've had about enough for this crap.

14
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:44,919
Speaker 1: Well, you're right about one thing. We got a lot

15
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 1: of calls about Glaber Torres. It's just something the Yankees

16
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 1: can't ignore anymore. This guy's got twelve errors. We're halfway

17
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 1: through the season. He's on pace for twenty four errors.

18
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 1: As a second basement, that's ridiculous. They used to make

19
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 1: fun of Derek Jeter for having like twenty something errors

20
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 1: in single a as an eighteen year old or whatever.

21
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 1: Glabor Torres is an established major league veteran. I don't

22
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 1: understand how you can be this bad defensively. We watched

23
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 1: knoblock with the Yips. You know, that was a mental thing.

24
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 1: He couldn't throw with the ball the first base, so

25
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:18,039
Speaker 1: he had a lot of errors. But these are just

26
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 1: routine ground balls that he's with and on and then

27
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 1: the non hustle. There's just too many things that are

28
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 1: going wrong with Labor Torres right now. He needs his

29
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 1: ass on the bench.

30
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 3: It's very difficult to watch this team. Come on, Derek,

31
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 3: I mean, we have Jones Torres. Davis suh. That's just ridiculous.

32
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm probably sounding like every other caller that

33
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 3: called you this morning, But what are we doing? Is

34
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 3: this the New York Yankees? Is this the murderers row?

35
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 3: Is this the team that's actually going to go to

36
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 3: the World Series? I mean, what else is Boon's supposed

37
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 3: to do? This is what he This is the active

38
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,559
Speaker 3: players that he has. He has to play them right well.

39
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 1: As the previous caller said, they're not giving Oswaldo Cabrera

40
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:05,559
Speaker 1: a lot of playing time. We had a few calls

41
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: about oswald Pirazza. I know he's not hitting much at TRIPLEA,

42
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 1: but they seem hell bent on stifling that guy's career.

43
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: He was our number one prospect a couple of years ago,

44
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:16,959
Speaker 1: and they just refuse to give him any kind of

45
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:21,640
Speaker 1: an extended chance. Look, guys, I think there's some real

46
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 1: decision making problems going on with the Yankees in terms

47
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 1: of roster construction, JD. Davis as an addition to this team,

48
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 1: and getting at bats over Ben Rice. There's too many problems.

49
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 1: We got to fix some of these things.

50
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 4: Hey, Derek is Sam from Atlanta. When I saw the

51
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 4: lineup in yesterday's game, all I could do was laugh.

52
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 4: I mean, my gosh, Jamiah Jones is your DH. That's

53
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 4: the best the Yankees can do for real? The New

54
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 4: York Yankees trotting out Jamiah Jones as your DH, Flabor

55
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,640
Speaker 4: hitting the cleanup and the guy continues to make errors.

56
00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:02,680
Speaker 4: Djalmayew's done. I mean, why are we continuing to trost

57
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:03,680
Speaker 4: this crap out?

58
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 1: Brian Cashman's roster construction has always been terrible, always been terrible,

59
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: and the Yankees player development has not been good either.

60
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 1: You're telling me we don't have guys in the minor

61
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,960
Speaker 1: leagues that can come up and take it bats instead

62
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 1: of JD. Davis and Jami Jones Jamai Jones as a

63
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,640
Speaker 1: dh this guy can't hit, You're gonna have him in

64
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,679
Speaker 1: there as a bat only guy. Jami Jones should be

65
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 1: a pinch runner and nothing else.

66
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 5: Good morning, Derek. This is Hugh from Bay Ridge, one

67
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 5: of the Yankees getting rid of rowsom Oh, who's rauseom Yeah,

68
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 5: he's our batting coach. Unfortunately, any place five through nine

69
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 5: in the order is a virtual out. So I'm curious

70
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 5: why they hid Raelselm. Who is he and why does

71
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 5: he remain? Thank you?

72
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 1: Look, it's hard to make chicken salad out of chicken shit.

73
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 1: And and I'm not going to blame the hitting coach

74
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 1: for this one, because these guys that they're putting in

75
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: there are either washed up or they were never good

76
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 1: hitters in the first place. I like what Ralson has

77
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: done with Anthony Volpi. Volpi has completely transformed his swing.

78
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 1: He's become a good hitter. But DJ Lemayhew can't hit anymore.

79
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 1: Glaber Torres is trying to hit every ball out of

80
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 1: the ballpark because he wants a big contract and We're

81
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 1: seeing how that works out. You know, the catching has

82
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 1: not been offensively good. We've gotten very little production out

83
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:29,479
Speaker 1: of first base. And the one guy who's come up

84
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 1: and shown that he can hit the ball a little bit,

85
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 1: Ben Rice, sitting his ass on the bench last night

86
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 1: just because you got a left handed pitcher, even though

87
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 1: he just had some good at bats against lefties. To me,

88
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 1: like other callers have said, is more on Aaron Boone

89
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,039
Speaker 1: and to a degree on Brian Cashman as well, for

90
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,159
Speaker 1: not putting the right roster pieces in place. I don't

91
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,279
Speaker 1: want to see JD. Davis out there. I just don't

92
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,679
Speaker 1: want to see it. I don't want to see Jamai

93
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,719
Speaker 1: Jones ever taking it back unless it's an emergency.

94
00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:00,719
Speaker 6: Hey, Jarrett Nick from South Carolina, just watching the this morning,

95
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 6: and I got to tell you, I don't know whoever

96
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,920
Speaker 6: makes out of the lineup. I have two issues today,

97
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:11,360
Speaker 6: one that I run by you. One, why wasn't the

98
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 6: kid I was playing first base? This guy Davis that

99
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 6: you know, Oakland was so anxious to get rid of them,

100
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 6: they basically gave them to us. Dad has to tell

101
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 6: you something, And why they're not letting the rookie come

102
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 6: up and play every day so that you can test

103
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 6: him and see what he really has. But playing three

104
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,680
Speaker 6: days rest him didn't put into this guy, Davis. That's

105
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 6: not gonna work. You're never going to get the best

106
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 6: out of this kid if you do that. Number one.

107
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:44,160
Speaker 6: Number two labor tourists. Labor tourists once again creates an

108
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:48,600
Speaker 6: error that just any little league could have handled, and

109
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 6: a run scores. And that run that scores may have

110
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 6: been the difference because the Yankees showed great resilience and

111
00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 6: came back, only to have that of a second basement

112
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 6: once again through his carelessness and lazy baseball effort, allowing

113
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:08,480
Speaker 6: another run to score.

114
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 1: I had hopes that labor Torres would turn it around,

115
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 1: that it was kind of a slow start. But we're

116
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,160
Speaker 1: halfway through the season now, all right, it's time to

117
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 1: get going, or it's time to sit your ass down

118
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 1: on the bench. And the laziness, the jogging to first base.

119
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 1: I don't care that his groin is hurting. You bust

120
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 1: your ass for this team. You're making millions of dollars.

121
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 1: You play through a little bit of pain. If you

122
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: can't run, you shouldn't be in there. He should be

123
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 1: on the il. If you need to jog to first

124
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,280
Speaker 1: base in a crucial situation because you're groin hurts, you

125
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,919
Speaker 1: got no business being on the roster. You should be

126
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 1: on the injure list full stop.

127
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:43,919
Speaker 7: Man.

128
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:50,480
Speaker 8: That's uh freaking uh. Rice should be playing these games.

129
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 8: She's already I think, not enough to deserve it. Kid

130
00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 8: looks good out there. You gotta let the kid play.

131
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:01,839
Speaker 1: I appreciate the call. I think a lot of Yankees

132
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:04,040
Speaker 1: fans are in agreement that Rice just needs to play

133
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 1: every day. In fact, if I were cash Man, I

134
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 1: would just go ahead and DFA this guy JD. Davis

135
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 1: right away. I mean, just let the kid plays. A

136
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 1: waste of a roster spot to have JD. Davis in there.

137
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 1: You're telling me that Rizzo would sit against lefties. No,

138
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 1: and Rice is a better hitter than Rizzo at this

139
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 1: point in his career. That's just the way it is.

140
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 1: And you're gonna stunt this kid's growth if you don't

141
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 1: let him face the toughest competition, because there's going to

142
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 1: come a time where he needs to face this tough competition,

143
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 1: and if he hasn't had that experience before, he's not

144
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 1: gonna be able to lean on it. I just think

145
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 1: the Yankees consistently mishandle their youth. You know, we saw

146
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 1: it with Piazza. We saw it with and Duhar, you know,

147
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 1: and Douharr had some injuries, but you know, we've seen

148
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:48,040
Speaker 1: it with so many guys. Just let the kid play.

149
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 1: Let's see what he's got. If he fails, he fails,

150
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 1: and that's on your player development system. But I think

151
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 1: he'll play well, and he's showing a good eye. He's

152
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: been good on defense. Let the kid play. Hey, Derek

153
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 1: grag Southern California, we should move.

154
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 2: Torrest to the nine hole. You put in Ben right

155
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 2: at four, tune in with.

156
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 1: Trevino and maybe Austin Wells. That's right for Trevino patient

157
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 1: a lefties, but come on, yeah, let's do that. I'm

158
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:20,840
Speaker 1: good with putting labor tours in the nine hole as

159
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 1: long as it's for San Diego.

160
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 7: Good evening there. Graduations again, over the forty Donald, Let's

161
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 7: get the forty five and age fifty by the end

162
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 7: of the season. And then Cole last week, this is

163
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 7: Moulton by the way from Texas. I called last week

164
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 7: about Boone's terrible management of pictures, and you did bring

165
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 7: up that the case for Tory was not good either,

166
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 7: but especially when you brought up the name of Farnsworth.

167
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:53,199
Speaker 7: I remember him, but nothing in comparison to what Boonen

168
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 7: has done over the last since he's been with the Yankees.

169
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 2: He is terrible.

170
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 7: Look tonight call, you know, he didn't have it. Let's

171
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,319
Speaker 7: get him out of there. Was his goal was to

172
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 7: get him to seventy and I think he pitched seventy

173
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 7: two pitchers last week. He pitched sixty two and he

174
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 7: got him home. And he was even better than last

175
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 7: last last week. So I mean, I guess you know

176
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 7: what the the pitching amount is. The is the goal here?

177
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,959
Speaker 7: Come winning is the goal here, and and the pitcher

178
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:25,199
Speaker 7: doesn't have it, get him out home.

179
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 1: I appreciate the call. The one guy that I'm willing

180
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,559
Speaker 1: to let work through some issues on the mound at

181
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,959
Speaker 1: the major league level is Garrett Cole, just because he's

182
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 1: got such a great track record. But it was clear

183
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:39,680
Speaker 1: last night that he was serving up those meatballs. I

184
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 1: was hoping that he would turn it around and settle in.

185
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 1: That's what you want you want him to, you know,

186
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 1: kind of put it together and then retire ten in

187
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: a row. Or whatever, And I think we all kind

188
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 1: of hoped that would happen, but it just wasn't happened

189
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,960
Speaker 1: for him last night. So hopefully he gets it going

190
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,559
Speaker 1: next start. And this isn't some kind of an injury

191
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:57,839
Speaker 1: or anything like that, and it's just a dead arm

192
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 1: kind of spring training period for him. But yeah, you

193
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 1: guys remember Scott Proctor how Joe Tory basically killed him.

194
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,440
Speaker 1: At least uh, at least Aaron Boone hasn't done that yet.

195
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 9: It was I was wondering, do you think like when

196
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,800
Speaker 9: when batters go when like Glaber and all the batters

197
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 9: like four through mine besides like Ben Rice who just

198
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 9: got to the league, they purposely like watch the first

199
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:24,160
Speaker 9: two pitches go through, Like DJ does this all the time.

200
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,199
Speaker 9: He who let the first two put it could be

201
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 9: right down in the middle. He'll just watch them and

202
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 9: the last pick to be down the dirt, he'll swing

203
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 9: at it. Like are they purposely doing that or is

204
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 9: he like is this random? Which is tell me thoughts

205
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 9: on it.

206
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: It's just a matter of not being aggressive enough. You know,

207
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 1: some hitters can go up there and attack early in

208
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,880
Speaker 1: the count. The Yankees is to make the picture throw

209
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 1: a lot of pitches and you know, possibly draw a

210
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 1: walk or whatever. But sometimes you just got a hack.

211
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:51,680
Speaker 1: And I feel like the Yankees do let too many

212
00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 1: pitches go by early in the count. Now, if you're

213
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: Juan Soto, I don't mind you taking a lot of pitches,

214
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,440
Speaker 1: but if you're DJ Lemayhew and you're slumping, I want

215
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 1: you up there, hit the first hit able pitch that

216
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 1: you get and just driving it in the gap somewhere.

217
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 1: But I'm not sure that DJ has that kind of

218
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 1: ability anymore. All Right, guys, we'll see you after the game.

219
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 1: Thanks for all the calls. Tough night for the Yankees,

220
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:13,680
Speaker 1: but hopefully they turn it around tonight with Louise Heal
