1 00:00:01,560 --> 00:00:02,800 Speaker 1: Under puts all. 2 00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:09,680 Speaker 2: Welcome back, everybody, Welcome back May fifteenth, which means there 3 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:15,560 Speaker 2: is a clash of the Titans tomorrow, Yankees versus Mets, 4 00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:17,919 Speaker 2: Subway Series twenty twenty five. I know a lot of 5 00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:20,520 Speaker 2: you have had this circled on your calendar for a 6 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:24,439 Speaker 2: long time, since the moment that we got the breaking 7 00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:28,400 Speaker 2: news from Jeff Passon that Juan Soto was signing with 8 00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:31,840 Speaker 2: the Mets. I think a lot of us have had this, 9 00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:34,839 Speaker 2: if not circled on our calendar, kind of in our 10 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:39,559 Speaker 2: mental calendar as something we're looking forward to. And you 11 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:42,200 Speaker 2: don't find out what teams are made of when things 12 00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:45,839 Speaker 2: are easy. You find out when things are hard. And 13 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:50,440 Speaker 2: the Yankees and Mets are both in first place, Are 14 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:53,360 Speaker 2: they the best two teams in baseball? Probably not, but 15 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:56,840 Speaker 2: they're both leading their division by a few games. They 16 00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:01,200 Speaker 2: both have megastars, they both have their weaknesses too. But 17 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 2: there is going to be a serious, serious playoff vibe 18 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 2: in the ballpark tomorrow. So let's get your voicemails in. 19 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 2: We've got a number of them to get to you. 20 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 2: Look at this matchup and it just feels like October 21 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,120 Speaker 2: and with the buzz in the city about the Mets 22 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 2: and the Yankees and the Knicks. This is a great 23 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:26,679 Speaker 2: time to be a fan of New York sports. But 24 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,319 Speaker 2: underneath the hype, we've got some real questions to answer. 25 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 2: Can the Yankees get big hits off of big arms? 26 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:37,839 Speaker 2: You know, this is not just another series. It's about pride, 27 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 2: Pride of the fan base, pride of the players, pride 28 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 2: of the organizations. I gotta tell you, since the Subway 29 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 2: Series World Series, I really haven't cared that much about 30 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 2: the Subway Series. I mean, it's a fun gimmick each year, 31 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 2: but the Mets really haven't been that great. Yankees haven't 32 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 2: won a World Series since nine, so it really has 33 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 2: never felt like, Okay, this could be a potential World 34 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 2: Series matchup. But it really could be. We've seen over 35 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 2: the years that baseball doesn't necessarily crown the best team 36 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 2: or the most talented team. Sometimes they crown the team 37 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:22,080 Speaker 2: that gels the best, or the team that's the toughest, 38 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 2: or the team that's the most clutch. And we're about 39 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,080 Speaker 2: to find out how tough these two teams are, and 40 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 2: how clutch these two teams are, and how bad they 41 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 2: want it, and the fans are gonna be awesome like this, 42 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 2: this crowd. These are three nationally televised games. It's gonna 43 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 2: be loud. They're gonna be pumping up the volume. It's 44 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 2: gonna be packed, standing room only. And yes, people are 45 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,640 Speaker 2: gonna be booing Wan Soto. That's gonna be the story. 46 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 2: And we got some voicemails about that. I saw Michael 47 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 2: kay had a rant today about whether or not people 48 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 2: should Boojan Soto. I have some thoughts on that. I'll 49 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 2: wait till I play the voicemail to reveal them. But 50 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 2: no word yet on if we're getting Jonathan Lowiseaga. I 51 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 2: haven't seen it anyway, but we could sure use them 52 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 2: this weekend. Without question. The week spot on this Yankees 53 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 2: team has been the bullpen. Last year's team probably wins 54 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 2: one hundred games if Clay Holmes had pitched better, and 55 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 2: we might be facing the same situation this year. I 56 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 2: don't know if we're one hundred win team got one 57 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 2: hundred win offense, but right now we should have four 58 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 2: or five more wins if not for the bullpen. But 59 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 2: flat out, the New York Yankees are going to need 60 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 2: to hit good pitching if they want to win this series. 61 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 2: There's that old adage in baseball, good pitching always beats 62 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 2: good hitting. Well, we're about to find out. Keep those 63 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 2: voicemails coming in. We're going to do some right now, 64 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 2: but we're also going to do a show tomorrow before 65 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 2: the game. We're going to do another voicemail show on Saturday, 66 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 2: and then one on my nost. Derek predictions for the weekend. 67 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 2: I think the Yankees are gonna take two out of three. 68 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 2: I think they're gonna win tomorrow night. I think they're 69 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 2: gonna probably drop game two, and then I think they're 70 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 2: gonna win Game three with Max Freed on the mount. 71 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,599 Speaker 2: I'm also predicting a big series from Ben Rice, a 72 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:25,119 Speaker 2: big series from Paul Goldschmidt. Trent Grisham remains hot. Would 73 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,279 Speaker 2: not surprise me if he gets a couple of big hits, 74 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 2: and that would be apropos because he was part of 75 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 2: that Wan Soto trade. And obviously Aaron Judge needs to 76 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 2: establish himself as the King of New York. But it's 77 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:45,040 Speaker 2: gonna be a really really fun three gay games are 78 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 2: really intense three games, and I'm sure that this channel 79 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 2: is gonna be buzzing for the next several days. So 80 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,679 Speaker 2: let's get to some comments. James Masucci says, Hi, everybody, 81 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:59,359 Speaker 2: let's go Yankees. Edward Angee says, we gotta take the 82 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 2: first game. The p reaching matchup favors US one. Agree. 83 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 2: Action VJ says Soto can hit three home months per game. 84 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 2: I don't care as long as we win. Amen to that, brother. 85 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 2: Here's the first call from Milton. 86 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:21,040 Speaker 3: Hi, there this Milton from Texas. I just would give 87 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,720 Speaker 3: my two cents in you know what, may sound a 88 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,359 Speaker 3: little childish, but I'll say it anyway. I think the 89 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 3: way they should greet the Juan Soto this weekend is 90 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 3: basically is not to do anything. Just sit on your 91 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 3: hand and and just you know, you know, personalities. 92 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,279 Speaker 1: They don't like neutral. 93 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 4: They like either booze or they like applause. 94 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 3: But when you're indifferent to them, when you kind of 95 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,720 Speaker 3: ignore them, they don't like that part. I don't even think. 96 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:50,280 Speaker 1: That by part now, don't I know. 97 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 4: That whether he has a big ego or no, I'm 98 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:52,400 Speaker 4: not out. 99 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong. 100 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 4: I wanted a Juan Soto a team, but. 101 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 3: Not at the risk of not getting Goldie. 102 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:02,119 Speaker 4: And Free and Bellinger and William and look how great 103 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 4: Christiaan and Rice has been so, don't get me wrong, 104 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 4: But the final million dollars more that he turned down 105 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 4: with the Yankees. I know it was over sixteen years, 106 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 4: but still final million dollars more. Not to stay with 107 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 4: this with the most famous team in the world, sports 108 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 4: team in the world, you know. So I would just 109 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 4: sit on my hand and not say anything. Just let 110 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 4: them let him hit the home run or let him 111 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:28,600 Speaker 4: make the hit, and just let them, you know, play 112 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 4: his game. Not could do anything with him. 113 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,480 Speaker 2: Appreciate the call. Milton appreciate the call. So here are 114 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 2: my thoughts. Michael kay had said today that if you 115 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 2: want to boo, you should boo every time the ball 116 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:42,919 Speaker 2: gets near him, every time he comes to bat. But 117 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:47,040 Speaker 2: I also understand where Milton's coming from. The opposite of love, 118 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,159 Speaker 2: and the Yankees fans showed wan so to a lot 119 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,479 Speaker 2: of love last year. The opposite of love isn't hate, 120 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 2: it's apathy. It's apathy. And I don't think Yankees fans 121 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 2: are still apathythetic. I think that they feel a little 122 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,159 Speaker 2: bit jilted. I think that they're upset. I'm not one 123 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 2: to tell Yankees fans what to do. I would boo 124 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 2: if I were there. I would boo because he left 125 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 2: us over a very small amount of money, and you 126 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 2: know we might be better off without him. I mean, 127 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 2: the offense is deeper with Paul Goldschmidt, and you know, 128 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 2: hopefully Cody Bellinger continues to turn it around. And you 129 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 2: know the fact that we were able to add Max Freed. 130 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 2: If we didn't have Max Freed, which we wouldn't have 131 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 2: had if we signed Juan Soto, where would this rotation be? 132 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 2: Yankees probably would not be in first place. I'll tell 133 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 2: you that I would boo. I would still boo. Now. 134 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 2: I get people who you know, want to cheer him 135 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 2: for what he did with the Yankees last year and 136 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 2: how he helped get us to the World Series. He 137 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 2: hit one of the biggest home runs in Yankee's history. 138 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 2: If you want to cheer him, cheer him. All I'm 139 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 2: saying is is that everythan has the right to express themselves. 140 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 2: That's what comes with the ticket. But let's be a 141 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 2: little bit more classy than chanting f Lon Soto. I 142 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 2: agree with Michael Kay there, let's try. I mean, there 143 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 2: are kids in the ballpark, it's on TV. We don't 144 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 2: want to come across as a disgusting fan. Base, don't 145 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 2: throw anything at him, just you know, use your voice, 146 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 2: use your emotions in your heart, and do what you 147 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 2: gotta do. Here's a safe situation. 148 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,319 Speaker 1: Hey Derek, it's the same situation. 149 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 5: Very nice win for the Yankees, an all out great 150 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 5: team effort today. 151 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 4: Wanted to get your opinion on Will Warren. 152 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 1: It kind of reminds you of how Clark Smith started, 153 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,560 Speaker 1: So I'd like to hear your take. 154 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 6: Is a lot better? 155 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,080 Speaker 3: Is it going to be better? Is this the will 156 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 3: warn that we want? 157 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 2: So? When when Will Warren came up last year, he 158 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 2: got shelled, He was awful, And the first several starts 159 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 2: this year he was awful. And I, you know, perhaps 160 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 2: I need to be more patient, especially with pitchers with 161 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 2: position players. I tend to be patient because I can 162 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,439 Speaker 2: see a lot more of them, and I understand, like, 163 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 2: but pictures are it's once every five days. So if 164 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 2: they have a bad start, they have a clunker, it 165 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 2: can leave a bad taste in your mouth for you know, 166 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:34,839 Speaker 2: the better part of a week. And so I mean 167 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 2: you go back and you look at the the highlights 168 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 2: or whatever, you see the guy getting a hit. It's 169 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:45,439 Speaker 2: difficult to have as big a leash with pitching, because 170 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 2: pitching can sink you. If you have a rookie and 171 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 2: he's a left fielder, let's call his name, let's call 172 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 2: him Smason, Smamingez, let's see. And then he goes, oh 173 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 2: for three. Well, it's like, well, he'll get a chance tomorrow. 174 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 2: You know if the t when you can survive one 175 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 2: player going zero for three with a couple of strikeouts 176 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,680 Speaker 2: or whatever, and you go get him the next day, 177 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:11,079 Speaker 2: get right back on the horse. But if a pitcher 178 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 2: gives up five runs in two innings or something like that, 179 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 2: not a very good chance that you win that game, 180 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 2: and it crushes the bullpen. It affects the next day. 181 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,079 Speaker 2: So I'm a lot less patient. I tend to be 182 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,440 Speaker 2: a lot less patient with starting pitching. And maybe that's 183 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 2: just my father, that's just how I choose to fan, right. 184 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 2: But I will say this about Will Warren. He's looked 185 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:37,560 Speaker 2: a lot better lately, oh life, And it does remind 186 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 2: me a little bit about the start that Clark Schmidt had. 187 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 2: Clark Schmidt has turned it around. I don't think Clark 188 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,719 Speaker 2: Schmidt had as many strikeouts early on as Will Warren does. 189 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,440 Speaker 2: Will Warren gets a ton of swings and misses a ton. 190 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:50,439 Speaker 2: There's a longer voicemail. 191 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 1: What's going on? 192 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 7: Derek excited for this subway series coming up. It's gonna 193 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:59,079 Speaker 7: be interesting to see a Judge Versuota battle of the 194 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 7: right fielders the best in New York. Let's see if 195 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 7: we have Rodan and Freed going. I'd like to think 196 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 7: that the pitching favors US this weekend. You'd like to 197 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 7: You'd like to think that anyway, at least with those 198 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 7: two guys. So let's hope for a good one, hold 199 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 7: the Mets down, and hopefully the boys offense here can explode. Also, 200 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:34,679 Speaker 7: just wanted to say, real quick, Warren is starting to 201 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 7: look much better. He's he's getting obviously better with every start, 202 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 7: gaining more and more confidence. He'd like to see that 203 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 7: he's slowing the game down a little bit when he 204 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 7: gets runners on. I think that was one of his 205 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:54,200 Speaker 7: major fault actually earlier in his season here, that anytime 206 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 7: he got runners on, seemed like the game just avalanched 207 00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 7: out of control on him really fast. And and you 208 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:05,320 Speaker 7: know he's taking a breath, not letting one hit and 209 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 7: then maybe a walk and two guys on, not allowing 210 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 7: that big three run home run. You kind of like 211 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 7: to see that type of thing from him. So hopefully 212 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 7: he keeps progressing as a young dangerous starter in this 213 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 7: in the big leagues. All right, man, see it. 214 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 2: I appreciate the call, Brian. I also wanted to show 215 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 2: Clark Schmidt. We just looked at Will Warren's stat cast numbers, 216 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 2: but since somebody compared him to Clark Schmidt, I wanted 217 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 2: to bring up Schmidt. And you see his stat cast 218 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,559 Speaker 2: numbers look terrific this year. The pitching run values down, 219 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 2: which is weird because all of his other stuff is 220 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 2: really good. And you see his fastball velo is not 221 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:44,319 Speaker 2: even qualified because he barely throws it. I mean he 222 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 2: throws cutters and sweepers and curves. He barely throws the fastball. 223 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 2: But he doesn't have quite as many strikeouts as innings pitched. 224 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 2: Last year. He had more strikeouts in ings pitch a 225 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 2: year before that, not quite as many. But if you 226 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,719 Speaker 2: go back and look at Will Warren way more strikeouts 227 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 2: and innings pitched, and I mean, these are two guys 228 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,840 Speaker 2: that could be following a similar path. Will Warren twenty 229 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,720 Speaker 2: five Clark Schmidt twenty nine. Be interesting to see what 230 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:12,560 Speaker 2: will Warren develops into. But I gotta say I feel 231 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:14,959 Speaker 2: like he might be turning the corner with his confidence, 232 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 2: as you mentioned, slowing the game down a little bit more. 233 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 2: That's important for a young pitcher to realize that you 234 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,440 Speaker 2: can strike guys out. Now he looks at his numbers. 235 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:26,439 Speaker 2: I'm sure he looks at the stat cast stuff. I'm 236 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 2: sure he looks at the strikeouts per innings pitch and 237 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:32,680 Speaker 2: he realizes, Hey, I don't need to be perfect. I 238 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 2: don't need to nibble on every pitch. I can go 239 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 2: right after guys. And once you realize that, man, there's 240 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 2: no telling what you can do with confidence. Confidence is 241 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 2: so important for baseball players, especially pitchers, because it causes 242 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 2: you to throw strikes or to avoid the strike zone. 243 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 2: So I love what we're seeing. I'm glad we're not 244 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,319 Speaker 2: gonna see him in this series, though you know he 245 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 2: pitched well against I believe it was A's and the Mariner, 246 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:06,440 Speaker 2: so out West East is different story in baseball, as 247 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:09,680 Speaker 2: in life. It's all about having that extra edge, that 248 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 2: little extra half second of a swing, the late break 249 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 2: on a slider, or the grit to outlast your opponent 250 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 2: on a hot afternoon. Same goes for shaving, Harry's gives 251 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 2: you the edge where it counts. I tried the five 252 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 2: dollars trial set, and honestly, it's like the ace of 253 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 2: my bathroom rotation. The handles weighted just right, the razor 254 00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 2: is smooth, and the foaming shavegel lathers better than anything 255 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 2: I have used before. I keep my beard tight around 256 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:42,880 Speaker 2: the jawline, clean edges, no irritation. Harry's handles it with ease. 257 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:46,120 Speaker 2: Even the packaging is big league. And their body wash, 258 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 2: I've got the redwood scent. It's like a fresh cut 259 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 2: field on opening day. Get the edge on your shave 260 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:56,000 Speaker 2: with Harry's razors. Normally their trial set is ten dollars, 261 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 2: but right now you can get it for just five 262 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 2: dollars at Harry's dot com slash stripe. That's Harry's dot 263 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 2: com slash stripe for a five hour trial set. Another call, Hey, 264 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 2: garrets Isiah, I wanted to get a quick call. 265 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 8: That was watching Paul Goldschmidt's interview after last night's game 266 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 8: against the Serious finale against Seattle as he was talking 267 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 8: about how since he knew that he was gonna pinch 268 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 8: hit with the Yankees and there's a new role for 269 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 8: him because he was used to playing every day. He 270 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 8: said he reached out to a bunch of guys over 271 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 8: the offseason that had more familiarity to pinch hitting with 272 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 8: Matt Harpenter, I think his old hitting coach or something 273 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 8: like that. 274 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 9: And honestly, it's. 275 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 8: Just really refreshing to have a real professional on the 276 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 8: team who cares about his craft and like those things 277 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 8: mattered to him. 278 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 1: So I think that's a key reason why he's so 279 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 1: successful in New York so far. 280 00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, great, great call. I'm loving what we're 281 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 2: seeing from Goldie. I'm gonna go ahead and pull up 282 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 2: Paul Goldschmidt's stat cast stuff too, because he's been really 283 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 2: the revelation of the year for me. You know, when 284 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 2: you look it back at what he did last year, 285 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 2: it was really a slow start and then he turned 286 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 2: it on in the second half. But the guy's hitting 287 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 2: three forty six. He's having numbers like his MVP season. 288 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 2: His on base percentage is almost four hundred. You know, 289 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:15,920 Speaker 2: he's got a nine oh one ops, five homers, including 290 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,160 Speaker 2: the pinch hit home run yesterday, threw one hundred and 291 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 2: sixty two at bats and he's been solid on defense. 292 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 2: I mean, you look at the fielding metrics and he's 293 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 2: only in the thirty eighth percent tile outs above average, 294 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 2: So you know he's not gonna win any gold gloves 295 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 2: out there. But just make the plays right. Just make 296 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 2: if you're in there at first base and you're hitting 297 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 2: like this, you're in there for your bat right. We 298 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 2: don't need him to win a gold glove. Save a 299 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 2: couple of those bad throws from the left side once 300 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 2: in a while, and go out there and mash baby. 301 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 2: And his stat cast numbers are not sweet spot eighty 302 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 2: ninth percentile. That's a launch angle sweet spot expected batting 303 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 2: average of three to ZHO one. He's actually hitting three 304 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 2: forty six, So you know he's over performing a little bit, 305 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 2: been a little bit lucky seventy fifth percentile in strikeout 306 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:08,879 Speaker 2: percentage and in fifth percentage. It's nice to have somebody 307 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:13,880 Speaker 2: who's not an automatic k I mean, Rizzo last year 308 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:18,359 Speaker 2: struck out so much and hit so many weak ground balls, 309 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:22,399 Speaker 2: and we're just getting better production this year. And I 310 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,160 Speaker 2: mean you look at the rest of the order. I mean, 311 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 2: we're getting better production in the outfield obviously than we 312 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:34,199 Speaker 2: had last year. You know, well that's not fair. Soto 313 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:40,200 Speaker 2: and Judge were amazing, but really Verdugo did nothing left. 314 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 2: I think Dominge is gonna end up having more home runs, 315 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,719 Speaker 2: more RBIs, you know, than Verdugo, not as good defensively. 316 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 2: I still think third base is an issue, you know, 317 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 2: without Waalder, we're gonna have to figure that out. Here's Stephen. 318 00:17:55,640 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 5: Hill, Stephen Clton from Italy. I wanted to talking about 319 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 5: the lineup since we don't have a game today. The 320 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,439 Speaker 5: fact that the lineup is different every day and the 321 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 5: logic of why who's batting where. 322 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:12,920 Speaker 1: Is never clear is driving me crazy. 323 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:14,880 Speaker 5: And remember the last year the lineup was the same 324 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 5: almost every day and we made it to the World Series. 325 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 5: So this is what I actually think our lineup should be. 326 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 5: I think Dominga should hit leadoff, and Goldschmith should back second. 327 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,880 Speaker 5: Goodman's hitting three fifty should back before Judge, so there's 328 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 5: some of the un base when Judge gets up, and ideally, 329 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 5: you know, like Garl Weaver said, three run homers, so 330 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 5: Judge back's third. Trent Grisham should back fourth. He's the 331 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 5: most dangerous someone hitter in the lineup. Right now, after 332 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 5: Judge and Slow he's fourth, and then fifth should be 333 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,639 Speaker 5: either Ben Rice or John Carlis Stanton. If they're Gates, 334 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:52,720 Speaker 5: then wells. Then I would put whoever's playing second, whoever's 335 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:56,120 Speaker 5: playing third, in whichever order, and when Jazz gets back, 336 00:18:56,160 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 5: I would bat him eighth actually, and then Anthony Voe 337 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,920 Speaker 5: be mine. This way, you've got the Wopia is a 338 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 5: kind of an additional Wedoff person who can still basically up, 339 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 5: who can drive him in. I mean, that's a lineup 340 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:11,679 Speaker 5: that makes some sense, and people should know what the 341 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 5: role is. So I'm interested in what you think about it. 342 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:17,439 Speaker 2: So I'm gonna stop you right there. I love it. 343 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 2: I mean I love it. I've always been in favor 344 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:23,199 Speaker 2: of consistent lineups. Here's the problem, though, you got this 345 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 2: log jam, right, I mean, every day one of the 346 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:27,440 Speaker 2: outfielders has to sit. 347 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:29,159 Speaker 9: You know. 348 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 2: I don't know if Trent Grisham's magic juice or whatever 349 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 2: is gonna wear off. But he's been tremendous and you 350 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:39,199 Speaker 2: hope that he keeps hitting, and I hope he has 351 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,639 Speaker 2: a big series. I hate to see Domingez sitting as 352 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 2: much as he does. I would rather see Bellinger sit 353 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:47,200 Speaker 2: a little bit more I'd emphasize the importance of development 354 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 2: over you know, Bellinger trying to get it going. But 355 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,399 Speaker 2: Bellinger's hit better lately's you know, a ten game hitting streak. 356 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 2: But good call. 357 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 9: Hey, who can't get excited about the Mets? Yankees Someway 358 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 9: And I know you probably don't like this one, Derek, 359 00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 9: but Devin Williams is going to be a key part 360 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:14,719 Speaker 9: of the Yankee success this year, and so Soopie, Austin 361 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:20,479 Speaker 9: Well and the Demanez say sold So Yankees. 362 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 2: Appreciate the call. Frank from California. I I'm still skeptical 363 00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:28,880 Speaker 2: about Devin Williams in a big spot. I'm not sure 364 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 2: he's made of the kind of stuff that you need 365 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 2: to be a closer. But if he's just pitching in relief, 366 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,439 Speaker 2: middle relief, I'll take it. He has looked better his 367 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:45,159 Speaker 2: last few times out. The airbender pitch is working much better. 368 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 2: I want to see him more aggressive in throwing strikes. 369 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 2: He's still walking too many guys and that can kill you. 370 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 6: Hi, this is Stephen Francis again, and i'd love to 371 00:20:55,760 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 6: give you my pitch of the brand new Pinstry Territory 372 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 6: Belt Winner introduction and now the new Pinstripe Territory Belt 373 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:10,160 Speaker 6: Winner of the. 374 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,879 Speaker 1: Day X person. 375 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:18,879 Speaker 6: Let me know if that is Suffice, and I would 376 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 6: love to hear your feedback. Thank you very much and 377 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:23,639 Speaker 6: I hope you have a great ring. 378 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 2: First of all, I didn't realize we needed a new one, 379 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:33,080 Speaker 2: So a couple of things. One, you've got a great voice. 380 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:38,639 Speaker 2: You'd probably be a good podcaster. But that was boring 381 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:46,439 Speaker 2: as ship. That's how you pronounce the belt belt winner 382 00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:54,959 Speaker 2: you got Simon, Hi, Derek, Simon Rolsham calling them bels? 383 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 1: How you doing love the head?
