1 00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:09,160 Speaker 1: Yah, they pull me back. 2 00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:09,440 Speaker 2: Kick. 3 00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:17,599 Speaker 3: Good morning, everybody, Good morning, welcome back. Today is Thursday, 4 00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:22,200 Speaker 3: September twenty sixth, and the Yankees have another chance to 5 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:26,200 Speaker 3: clinch the American League East tonight against the Baltimore Orioles. 6 00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:31,960 Speaker 3: Garrett Cole on the mound. He was phenomenal against the Athletics. 7 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:35,640 Speaker 3: Really could have thrown a no hitter. And tonight's a 8 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:38,840 Speaker 3: night that makes me love baseball. You got Garrett Cole 9 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,879 Speaker 3: versus Corbyn Burns, Yanks going for the East, you know, 10 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:46,000 Speaker 3: Burns trying to keep the Orioles Hopes in the East alive, 11 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:50,240 Speaker 3: you know, and quite frankly, you can see the pressure 12 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 3: mounting on this team. I want to see how they 13 00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:55,760 Speaker 3: respond to it. I want to see how they respond 14 00:00:55,800 --> 00:01:00,280 Speaker 3: to pressure, because right now you're getting that scent of 15 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 3: a team that's you know, we've seen them be hot 16 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 3: and cold all year. It seems like they've turned the 17 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 3: faucet to cold. As referee says, we have better win tonight, 18 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 3: lightning monkey says, what do you hear? 19 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:16,479 Speaker 4: What do you say? Hey don't so. 20 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 3: The voicemails and the comments the past few days have 21 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:24,560 Speaker 3: been as intense and as angry as I've seen all 22 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 3: year long, with the exception of when Clay Holmes blows 23 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 3: a game, which is unfortunately quite often, there's about two 24 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 3: weeks worth of those voicemail shows. But losses like last 25 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 3: night and the night before really bring people out of 26 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 3: the woodwork, and you can sense that fans are getting frustrated, 27 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 3: and you can also sense that fans think that Garrett 28 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 3: Cole still has something left to prove. I mean, he's 29 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 3: had some big playoff starts for us. He had the 30 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 3: thirteen strikeouts against the Guardians. You know, he pitched cup 31 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 3: good games against the Rays and Astros. But he still 32 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 3: has something to prove. You know, we're waiting for him 33 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 3: to deliver a championship, obviously, and though he mowed down 34 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 3: the Athletics, I think there's still a lot of people 35 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 3: that are seriously disappointed in what happened with Devers and 36 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:23,359 Speaker 3: the Red Sox and the mentality that led to him 37 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 3: intentionally walking Devers in a situation where he shouldn't. 38 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:34,080 Speaker 5: Have no hopes now depend on Coward Cole, the ace 39 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 5: of the staff that pitch us into the playoff title 40 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 5: here into the division, so he can't face Devers. We'll 41 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:44,639 Speaker 5: see what he can do against the Orioles. 42 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, fans are not going to let him live that down, 43 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 3: already calling him coward coal. But he can change that narrative. 44 00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 3: He pitched so great last time out that it was 45 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 3: like he was pitching with a chip on his shoulder. 46 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 3: And if he's able to stay at that peak level 47 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 3: of performance and of stuff for a while, you know, 48 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 3: maybe people will start to say that the pushback against 49 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 3: Walking Devers unleashed the monster that we've all been waiting 50 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 3: to see in Garrett Cole. I don't want to see 51 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 3: the wine connoisseur tonight. I don't want to see the 52 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:30,119 Speaker 3: pitching professor or the guy who's goofing around and scarfing 53 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 3: bananas in the dugout. I want to see the assassin. 54 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 3: I want to see the psychopath. I want to see 55 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 3: the train killer. This is who Garrett Cole should be. 56 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 3: The ace that breathes fire and craps thunder. That's who 57 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 3: we want to see tonight. Let's talk a little bit 58 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 3: about Jason Dominguez. 59 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 6: Good morning, Derek. This is you for they richlymp and 60 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 6: I think that's quite an indictment of the Yankee organization 61 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 6: that they give five million dollars to a prospect, and 62 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 6: in four and five years, four to five years, they 63 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 6: couldn't teach him how to catch a fly ball. I mean, 64 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 6: what are coaches doing in the minor leagues? Very concerning, 65 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 6: Thank you, Derek. 66 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 3: You know, I'm bewildered as to why he's having so 67 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:31,160 Speaker 3: much trouble by these routine flyballs. The first time he 68 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 3: misses a flyball, you think, well, maybe it's the twilight, 69 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 3: you know, maybe it's the lighting, Maybe it's the Triple 70 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 3: Decker stadium. 71 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 4: Sorry, I got alarms going off over here. That was 72 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 4: my alarm to work out. I guess not not this morning. 73 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:43,600 Speaker 2: Uh. 74 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 3: The second time you say, oh, that's not ideal. Maybe 75 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 3: it's a fluke occurrence, you know, playing in strange conditions 76 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 3: that he's never played in ballparks he's never played in 77 00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 3: you know, maybe he's unlucky. But the third time you say, 78 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 3: what the hell is going on here? It's almost it 79 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 3: almost has the vibe of the yips, you know what 80 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,640 Speaker 3: the yips when guys can't throw to first base, like 81 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 3: you know, Steve Sachs had it, Chuck Knoblock had it. 82 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 3: There have been catchers who can't throw the ball back 83 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,359 Speaker 3: to the pitcher. There have been pitchers who you know, 84 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 3: can't find the strike zone, whether it's Rick and Keel 85 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 3: or I can't even think of another one. It's a 86 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 3: mental thing, right, And I think that that can happen 87 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 3: at other positions too. You know, maybe you're running and 88 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,840 Speaker 3: you know you're running heels down or something like that, 89 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 3: and just the ball is bouncing and you just you 90 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 3: start to get nervous. Oh my god, am I gotta 91 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 3: catch it? Am I gonna miss it? I screwed up 92 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 3: so many ah, and then you miss it. He needs 93 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,919 Speaker 3: to relax, and he needs to make a couple of 94 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 3: really good plays. Last night, the Yankees fans gave him 95 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 3: the Bronx cheer when he caught that routine flyball, you know, 96 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 3: in inning after the error. I think frustration is growing, 97 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 3: and even like his biggest supporters like me, have to 98 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 3: recognize that the defense has been substandard. It has not 99 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:21,480 Speaker 3: been major league quality, and it is not sustainable and 100 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 3: we can't have that in the playoffs. In the playoffs, 101 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 3: defense and run prevention is absolutely paramount. I want to 102 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 3: sing the kids praises, I want to support the kid, 103 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 3: but I have a duty to you guys to be 104 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 3: honest with what I see, and I see a guy 105 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 3: who's not confident in his ability to catch a fly ball. 106 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:46,719 Speaker 4: Who doesn't track balls. 107 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 3: Well, maybe he's got something with his eyes right, Maybe 108 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,839 Speaker 3: he's not seeing the ball well, maybe he needs to wear, 109 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 3: you know, some glasses or something like that. 110 00:06:57,920 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 4: I don't know, but it's got to stop. 111 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 3: And you know he's gonna learn real quick that no 112 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,159 Speaker 3: matter how big a prospect you are, and no matter 113 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 3: how much hype and fanfare comes along with your arrival 114 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 3: in the major leagues, fans aren't gonna put up with 115 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 3: your botching routine plays. I think he's gonna hit I 116 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 3: really do. He's hit the ball hard a few times 117 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 3: recently that were outs, so his numbers should be better. 118 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 4: He's been mostly unlucky. 119 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 3: I don't have his his stat cast stuff in front 120 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 3: of me, but I'll pull it up when we do 121 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 3: the ad in a few minutes and I have a 122 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 3: second but I uh, I want. 123 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 4: To see. 124 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 3: What an extended period of Jason Dominguez in the major 125 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 3: leagues looks like, because we've seen so many things that 126 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 3: are impressive, like the really tough at bats where he 127 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 3: draws walks, he hits the ball so hard you know, 128 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 3: not just the home runs, but he had a double 129 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 3: in the left field gap that was like one oh five, 130 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 3: one oh six, something like that. 131 00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 4: He hits the ball really, really hard. Switch hitter. He's 132 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 4: hit the ball's hard righty. 133 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:07,120 Speaker 3: Too, even though that's his weaker side. But as of 134 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 3: right now, I'd be lying to you if I if 135 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 3: I said that I was encouraged by what we're seeing defensively. 136 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 3: We got some guys in slumps that need to pop 137 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 3: out of it. John Carlos Stanton hitting two oh five 138 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 3: in his last twenty five games. Jazz Chisholm hitting one 139 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 3: sixty seven in his last fifteen games. 140 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 4: He's lost. 141 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 3: He's swinging like he's trying to, you know, be Griffy 142 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:34,600 Speaker 3: Junior or Barry Bonds. 143 00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 4: He's trying to hit the ball five hundred feet. That's 144 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,679 Speaker 4: not your game, dude. Just hit the ball hard. 145 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 3: Austin Wells hitting ninety eight in his last twelve games, 146 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 3: maybe seeing his Rookie of the Year chances spiral. Alex 147 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 3: Verdugo not playing that much, but seventeen outs in his 148 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 3: last fifteen played appearances. He's hitting the two double plays 149 00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 3: and he's hitting two sixteen in his last fifteen games. 150 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 3: Anthony Rizzo hitting one ninety four in his last twenty 151 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 3: games with absolutely no power. He did have a nice 152 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 3: foul ball last night, We'll give him that, but he 153 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 3: has absolutely lost the ability to drive the baseball. Much 154 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 3: like DJ Lemayhew, I think the game is changing. I 155 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 3: think that players now, as they as they age, are 156 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 3: aging much quicker. I don't know if it's like the 157 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,679 Speaker 3: lack of steroids or if it's you know, pitchers just 158 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,559 Speaker 3: throwing harder and the reaction time of a human being 159 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 3: as they age just can't keep up with that. But 160 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:35,680 Speaker 3: there's so few guys who are able to maintain their 161 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,120 Speaker 3: offensive production late in their care I mean, we've seen 162 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 3: guys that, you know, our season pros like Eronato and 163 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 3: gold Schmidt, they've taken those dives with their stats. Like, 164 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 3: guys are aging much quicker, And you know, it's a 165 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 3: combination of things, I'm sure, but. 166 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 4: It's frustrating. It's frustrating to watch. 167 00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:00,200 Speaker 3: The positive news, and there is some positive news is 168 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 3: that Judge has homeward in four straight. Soto went deep 169 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 3: again last night. His knee looks okay, and over his 170 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 3: last twenty games, Labor Torres is hitting three point fifty 171 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:15,200 Speaker 3: two with three home runs. But we need more parody 172 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 3: in the lineup. Somebody has got to start hitting at 173 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 3: the bottom of the lineup. I don't care who it is, 174 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 3: or in the middle of the lineup. John Carlow, Jazz Wells, 175 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 3: I mean Wells hit in ninety eight in his last 176 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 3: twelve games. To borrow a line from Ed Harris in 177 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:35,559 Speaker 3: Apollo thirteen, gentlemen, that is not acceptable. We got to 178 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 3: get some of these guys going. Let's take a couple 179 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 3: of comments here and then we will move on to 180 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 3: a quick ad. And then we got a couple more voicemails. 181 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 3: Mary Beth Page or Pape, Sorry said that wrong, says 182 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 3: love your honesty on the Martian shows. 183 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 4: You're a pro. 184 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 3: I mean, I have a duty to be honest with 185 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 3: you guys, with what I'm seeing. I think that's a 186 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 3: big reason that you know, guys tune in or everybody 187 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 3: tunes in, is that I'm I'm honest with you guys. 188 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:11,439 Speaker 3: You know I'm not gonna blow smoke. Douglas Ross is 189 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 3: good morning coffee, blueberry muffin and coffee from the Department 190 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 3: of Redundancy Department. 191 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 4: I like it. 192 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 3: I've only had one cup of coffee today. Armando Alvarado says, 193 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:26,559 Speaker 3: Dimingaz needs to step it up. He has a few 194 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,839 Speaker 3: games to figure it out really quick, and this is 195 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 3: why he should have been playing several weeks ago. You 196 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 3: wanted these reps, You wanted these growing pains, these kinks 197 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,599 Speaker 3: to get worked out before you had to face the 198 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 3: mounting pressure of the playoffs. 199 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 4: Doug says, sit. 200 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 3: Stanton and DH Dimingez in the playoffs, that is something 201 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 3: you can consider. So you could go with Domingas as 202 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 3: the DH against right handed pitchers and Stanton with the 203 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 3: D eight as the DH against left handed pitchers, because 204 00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:01,680 Speaker 3: Stanton generally hits lefties better than righty's and Domingetz generally 205 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 3: hits right he's better than lefties. And that allows you 206 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 3: to play for du Goo in left field, which even 207 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 3: if he doesn't hit, he's really good defensively and he's 208 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 3: got a strong arm. Btr says, should Bertie start over Jazz? 209 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 3: You know, I had the thought this morning. That's so 210 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 3: funny you brought that up. I had the thought this 211 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 3: morning when I was making my coffee, as referenced with 212 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 3: Doug's message, I was like, what would I do if 213 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 3: I was the manager today and I was thinking, you know, 214 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 3: John Bertie scorched some baseballs earlier this week. He's a 215 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 3: fastball hitter. You got Corbyn Burns pitching tonight is a 216 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 3: fastball pitcher, and it's near the end of the season. 217 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 3: His fastball's lost a couple of ticks, and Bertie is 218 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 3: a guy who is fresh because he hasn't played that 219 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:50,719 Speaker 3: much because he was hurt. It might be one of 220 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 3: those things where it's a good matchup even though it's 221 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 3: lefty righty with Jazz. You know, Bertie could be a 222 00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:58,840 Speaker 3: good option tonight to get in the lineup and he 223 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:01,679 Speaker 3: can make something happen on the because he's so fast. 224 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 3: So that's a really good comment. I had the same thought. 225 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,960 Speaker 3: Referee says Jazz doesn't hit, he's just fast. Well, we've 226 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 3: seen him hit. I mean, he got off to a 227 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 3: really hot start with the Yankees. I think we've see 228 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:15,560 Speaker 3: now is a regression to the mean. You know, he 229 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 3: was impossibly hot and now he's just got ice cold. 230 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 3: But we need to get him, get him going before 231 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,439 Speaker 3: the playoffs because when he's on and when he's getting 232 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 3: on base, he's a huge game changer. Rick Newman says, 233 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 3: I got that feeling Aaron Judge is going deep twice tonight. 234 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 3: I hope you're right. I hope you're right. That would 235 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 3: put him at fifty nine. He's got a shot to 236 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,199 Speaker 3: get to sixty. But it's not going to be easy. 237 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 3: You know, we've seen him have three homer games before. 238 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 3: He did it twice last year. If he does it again, 239 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 3: he's there. Quick word from Manscaped and then we're back. 240 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 3: We've got three more voicemails.

That'smanscape dot Com. Use the code foul twenty. All right. 259 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 3: So I said that I would pull up some Jason 260 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 3: Dominguez stat cast stuff. 261 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 4: So here we go. 262 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 3: If you look at the graphs, you see that everything's 263 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 3: kind of great out a little bit. That means he's 264 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 3: not qualified. He doesn't have enough at bats and just 265 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 3: you know, for people who are new, left side is poor, 266 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 3: middle is average, right side is great. Now you can see, 267 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 3: and I don't want to look at the values too 268 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 3: much because I think that's where everything will be skewed 269 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 3: by sample size. But let's go ahead and take a 270 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 3: look at his other batting statistics here, metrics here. His 271 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 3: average exit velocity is ninety one miles an hour. That's 272 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 3: really good. That's well above average. His barrel percentage is 273 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 3: well above average. His hard hit percentage is elite. His 274 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 3: sweet spot percentage so far has been low. You know, 275 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 3: he's been jammed by some cutters, and that's also why 276 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 3: his squared up percentage is low. 277 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 4: But the bat speed elite, the fifth. 278 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 3: Percentage well above average, and the walk percentage well above average. 279 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 3: Strikeout percentage not great so far. You'd expect that for 280 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 3: a new player who's entering the league. So far two 281 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 3: hundred average, two ninety four on base percentage, six point 282 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 3: fifty ops, a couple of home runs. He's had forty 283 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 3: five played appearances this year. I would expect that he'll 284 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 3: get better over the next few like he'll he'll over 285 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 3: the next several days. He'll get more comfortable as he 286 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 3: gets reps, and the offensive numbers will improve, especially against 287 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 3: the Pirates, although maybe not with schemes. But I'm really 288 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,280 Speaker 3: worried about the defense, really worried. 289 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 7: Hi, this is Milton from Texas. There was a great 290 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 7: interview with Buster Olney. Maybe I'll try to get that 291 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 7: book out of the library or something. But anyway, you know, 292 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 7: I'm wondering why the Yankees sure shouldn't maybe hope too 293 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 7: much to get home field advantage. 294 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 8: Their record away is er point six one seven, and 295 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:09,639 Speaker 8: their record at home, including the debacle tonight, is zero 296 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:12,360 Speaker 8: point five, four or five, So I mean that can 297 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:17,200 Speaker 8: obviously change there in the playoffs, but they played somewhat better. 298 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 7: About a half more than a. 299 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 2: Pretty good in the way then at home, so maybe 300 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:29,800 Speaker 2: they shouldn't be wishing too much. Although I do like 301 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 2: the home field advantage because you get to see more 302 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 2: of them, more of than at the Yankee Stadium. But again, 303 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,400 Speaker 2: you have a great show. Thank you for taking my call. 304 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 3: I appreciate it. I appreciate it. It's odd the way 305 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 3: they've played better on the road this year. You wonder 306 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 3: if that's a statistical anomaly or what. But I will 307 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 3: say this, the Bronx in the playoffs is a different animal. 308 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 3: I mean, the intensity is crazy. So you know that's 309 00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 3: going to intimidate other teams, and you would hope that 310 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 3: it would give the Yankees the energy they need. But 311 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 3: a lot of times the energy just comes from, you know, 312 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,760 Speaker 3: getting some hits and scoring some runs and putting some 313 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:11,399 Speaker 3: things together earlier in the game, and the Yankees just 314 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:15,880 Speaker 3: haven't done that enough. They tend to have these late 315 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 3: comebacks and things like that, but after they're down by 316 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:24,879 Speaker 3: a lot. I want to see them come out swinging tonight. 317 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 3: I want to see, you know, a crooked number early 318 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,880 Speaker 3: in the game off of Corbyn Burns, give Carrot, give 319 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:33,960 Speaker 3: Garrett Cole something to work with and let him do 320 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:34,400 Speaker 3: his thing. 321 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 9: Derek Robert, I heard my stupid email that you played. 322 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 9: I don't blame it. I deserve it. It was funny, yeah, 323 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:53,159 Speaker 9: and your rent was right on point, and I agreed 324 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:54,199 Speaker 9: with every word would be. 325 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:58,359 Speaker 1: It was very well done. 326 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 9: Everything he should and you hit it hard. I didn't 327 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:07,679 Speaker 9: even know about the mingas screwing up another ball in 328 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:08,880 Speaker 9: the outfield either. 329 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 1: Thank god, I didn't know that. 330 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:15,359 Speaker 9: I didn't need to know that. And then it was also, 331 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,639 Speaker 9: you did very well on that Jason Jones, shit, that 332 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:24,439 Speaker 9: was that was good. It was You're on point with 333 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 9: a lot of stuff. You're a sharp guy, and tomorrow 334 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 9: you're right. We better freaking win with Cole. That's why 335 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 9: we gave him all that money. Let him come through. 336 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 9: At least we got the division. Man. Like you say, 337 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 9: if we lose tomorrow and they pitched schemes on Friday night. 338 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: We'll probably losing that one too. And anything can happen 339 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:52,360 Speaker 1: in the last two games. Yeah, so, yeah, they got 340 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,439 Speaker 1: to get the rack together, all right, take it easy. 341 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 3: Robert brings entertainment to my day. He calls in regularly 342 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 3: and we his voicemails regularly. He's a funny guy. I 343 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 3: appreciate the kind words. And yeah, tonight, I mean tonight 344 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:09,160 Speaker 3: should have a playoff atmosphere. You're talking about a Premieer 345 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,919 Speaker 3: pitching matchup. A lot of pressure on the Yanks, a 346 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 3: lot of pressure to you know, finish off the Al East, 347 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 3: and right now they only have a one game lead 348 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 3: for the for home field advantage, one game in the 349 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 3: lost column that is over the Guardians for home field 350 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 3: advantage in the American League. 351 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:31,440 Speaker 10: Oh, Derek, Hi, Derek, I just wanted to follow up 352 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,880 Speaker 10: on what you were talking about in your rant Tamar 353 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 10: last night, And to me, I think he nailed it 354 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 10: right on the head in the sense that the Yankees 355 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 10: organization has had kind of the sense of they know 356 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 10: better than any other team, they know better than the fans, 357 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:53,359 Speaker 10: and that they could be so much better if they 358 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 10: prioritized winning at every point and try to maximize their 359 00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:00,399 Speaker 10: roster and their chances of winning. And you look at 360 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:02,680 Speaker 10: this past week and I just don't think you can 361 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:04,960 Speaker 10: say that considering oops. 362 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:07,600 Speaker 3: I actually turn it off, all right, so rather than 363 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 3: play it again. Yeah, the point that he was trying 364 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,680 Speaker 3: to make was that the team doesn't go for the kill. Okay, 365 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:18,400 Speaker 3: And I can say that, you know, if we had recognized, 366 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 3: or if the Yankees had recognized as soon as the 367 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:23,640 Speaker 3: fans did, that that Clay Holmes was not the guy 368 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 3: to shut down games two months ago, we'd have everything 369 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,119 Speaker 3: wrapped up by now, we'd have it all wrapped up. 370 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 3: We'd have the division, we'd have home field advantage, we'd 371 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 3: be up by probably ten games. That's that's the way 372 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:35,120 Speaker 3: it goes. 373 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 2: Uh. 374 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 4: But the Yankee, the Yankees just stuck with. 375 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 3: Him, and and then you know, ride that ride that 376 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 3: horse until it's glue.
