1 00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:04,960 Speaker 1: All right, but tip to feel you oh wanted to talk? 2 00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:08,600 Speaker 1: That's all. Today is Friday, July twenty sixth, and the 3 00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:11,280 Speaker 1: Yankees were in Boston to take on the rival Red 4 00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:14,200 Speaker 1: Sox as they kick off a weekend series and try 5 00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 1: to pull themselves out of a midsummer funck. My recap, 6 00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:27,159 Speaker 1: your reactions coming up next. This is in hyy recaps, 7 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:39,320 Speaker 1: Pull me back. My goodness, my goodness. The losses just 8 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:43,919 Speaker 1: keep getting harder and harder to believe. Yankees blew a 9 00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:48,559 Speaker 1: great opportunity tonight, and once again we meet up for 10 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:52,519 Speaker 1: a little bit of late night pain as Yankees fans 11 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,319 Speaker 1: classic back and forth at Fenway Park Slugfest. At least 12 00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:59,120 Speaker 1: it was a pretty exciting game, but yet another blown 13 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 1: say from Clay Holmes wasn't entirely on him. Three earn 14 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: runs charged to Luke Weaver, but Holmes hits too many 15 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:10,480 Speaker 1: bats and that was a recurring theme tonight for Yankees' pitchers. 16 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 1: Once again, we had to rely on DJ Lemayhew in 17 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 1: a very big spot and he struck out in a 18 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 1: huge situation. With the time runs on base, not a 19 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 1: very competitive at bat at all. There were some positives tonight, obviously, 20 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 1: Anthony Vopie, despite not getting the big hit in the 21 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: ninth innings, genuinely seems to be heating up again. His 22 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:32,959 Speaker 1: power swing is coming back. He hit his second home 23 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 1: run of the second half as we were starting to 24 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: see the fire boon in the chat there. He had 25 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 1: a multi hit game. He was two for five with 26 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 1: a couple of ribby or a couple of runs and 27 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 1: an RBI. Duco had a productive night. He had a 28 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 1: multi hit game, sack five. 29 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 2: He looked good. 30 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: We had a monster three run home run from Aaron 31 00:01:56,440 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 1: Judge four hundred and seventy feet. We had a base 32 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 1: hit from Austin Wells up the middle that was smoked, 33 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 1: and then he eat a home run to right field. 34 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 1: We had some solid defense from Rice and Grisham, but ultimately, 35 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:12,120 Speaker 1: ultimately the story is going to be the bullpen giving 36 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 1: it up again as they continue to blow very winnable games, 37 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: and tonight the Orioles loss. So this was a chance 38 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:23,920 Speaker 1: to gain in the American League East, and as we 39 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: look at the American League East, the Orioles maintain a 40 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: game and a half lead, so we could have, you know, 41 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 1: pulled into a half game of first play of first place. 42 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 1: In the Red Sox. You know they've been They've had 43 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 1: our number all year, and you know, it just seemed 44 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 1: like the Yankees car are constantly getting beat by their 45 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: rivals these days, the Mets, the Red Sox, the Astro. 46 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 1: I mean, we beat the Astros this year, that's you know, 47 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: but the Orioles just own us. 48 00:02:59,400 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 2: It's tough. 49 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 1: This morning, I mentioned that it would be great to 50 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 1: pull off a trade today and kind of jumpstart this 51 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:10,520 Speaker 1: team headed into the weekend. Literally every team in the 52 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 1: American League East made a trade today except for the Yankees. 53 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: Once again, Brian Cashman sleeping at the wheel. Now there 54 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 1: might be a move tomorrow. I'm going to see the 55 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,799 Speaker 1: Deadpool movie at one o'clock, so I can pretty much 56 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:27,640 Speaker 1: guarantee that if they make a move, it's gonna happen 57 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: the moment I sit down. But in the event that 58 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 1: happens and I'm not live right away, just know that 59 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: I'll be live when I get home afternoon sometime. Let's 60 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 1: talk about Nestor Cortez, because he had a tough night 61 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 1: as well. When I was a kid and I was 62 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: pitching like Little League or whatever, and I was getting 63 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 1: roughed up, giving up a bunch of hits. 64 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 2: My dad, he was very supportive. 65 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: He would shout out, you hit't so many bets, And 66 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 1: I get the same feeling every time Nestor pitches. These days, 67 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: he's just hitting a ton of bats. Nine hits allowed tonight. 68 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 1: Every inning there's contact, and there's a lot more hard 69 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: contact than there used to be. Doubles, homers, line drives, 70 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: even the outs are hit hard. The era has risen 71 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: over four It is up to four point one to 72 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: three on the season, and the whip is up to 73 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 1: one point two to one. And tonight he allowed nine hits, 74 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 1: including four doubles. He walked to He struck out five 75 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: eighty one pitches, forty seven strikes, only eight swings and misses. 76 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 1: Not a very encouraging performance by Nestor Cortez. His name 77 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 1: has been in trade rumors lately. I don't know if 78 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:41,040 Speaker 1: anybody would want him, given the way he's been pitching lately. 79 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: He's been getting hit like a pinata. He looks very 80 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 1: ghast to me, But it's definitely possible that this was 81 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,920 Speaker 1: his final start as a Yankee. So we'll see over 82 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 1: thousand in the chat. Might as well talk about Jason 83 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: Domingez for a second. We found out before the game 84 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: that Jason was activated in Triple A. And what's interesting 85 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 1: is that he seems to heal very quickly. I must 86 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 1: be the environment on Earth, I don't know, but he 87 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: came back. I had a schedule from Tommy John surgery, 88 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: and then when he was diagnosed with his oblique injury 89 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:16,840 Speaker 1: on June twenty, at the Yankee said it would be 90 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 1: about eight weeks. But here we are five weeks later, roughly, 91 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:22,840 Speaker 1: and tonight he was batting lead off in Triple A 92 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 1: and he ripped an RBI single in his first game back. 93 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:26,279 Speaker 1: I didn't have a chance to watch all of his 94 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: at bats yet, but it's encouraging that he's come right 95 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: back and you know, started hitting again. They're gonna be 96 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 1: cautious with him because it's an oblique, and I fully 97 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 1: expect him to ease his way back into daily reps. 98 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: Obliques are those those side muscles, right, and you use 99 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 1: them in everything in baseball, and they're very easy to 100 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: re injure. I read a study the other day because 101 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:52,599 Speaker 1: I'm very interested in his recovery and getting back into 102 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 1: this Yankees lineup, and the study basically said that Younger 103 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 1: players are more likely to injure their oblique than older players. 104 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 1: They're also more likely to reinjure their oblique, so you know, 105 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 1: hopefully they're a little bit cautious. But if he can 106 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,359 Speaker 1: be back in the next couple of weeks and provides 107 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 1: you a good, switch hitting, young, energetic option that will 108 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,720 Speaker 1: amp up the crowd a little bit, maybe pick up 109 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 1: some big hits, hit some line drives. You gotta put 110 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 1: him in the lineup. You gotta take that opportunity. He 111 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 1: was penciled into the leadoff spot tonight. I think that 112 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:28,280 Speaker 1: could be a preview where the Yankees plan to put 113 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,600 Speaker 1: him when he comes back. He was red hot before 114 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 1: he got injured, ops over one thousand, hitting over three 115 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 1: fifty six home runs, so he has conquered the minor leagues, 116 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: and I think as soon as he's healthy and playing 117 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 1: nine innings multiple games in a row and hitting productively, 118 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:46,159 Speaker 1: I think you gotta see him. I think it's time 119 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 1: for Duco's I know he had a couple of hits tonight, 120 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 1: but he simply has not played at a high enough 121 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: level to block Jason Dominguez, and they won't sit him 122 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:58,479 Speaker 1: before free agency. Gonna they want him to play, I 123 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 1: say you just deal him. I say, deal Verdugo, see 124 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 1: what you can get for him. At the deadline. Somebody's 125 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: got to be injured. So you know they're getting Stanton 126 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 1: back Monday. We'll talk about that in a second, but 127 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 1: it wouldn't shock me if they moved Verdugo on Monday 128 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: or Tuesday and then have Judge play left field for 129 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 1: the rest of the season. Grisham plays centerfield until Domingez 130 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 1: is ready, then he slides right in. It's perfect. Just 131 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 1: don't trade him. But as I mentioned, Stanton is coming back. 132 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 1: I was hoping that we would have Stanton for this 133 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 1: game because he always destroys the baseball in Fenway Park. 134 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: Sounds like we're getting him back for Philadelphia. Philadelphia is 135 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 1: a very good team. It is not gonna be an 136 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 1: easy series, and if the Yankees don't step it up, 137 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 1: they're gonna find themselves outside of the playoff picture looking in. 138 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 1: So it's good to get this guy back in the 139 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 1: lineup for a very important series. But you know, as 140 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 1: we've mentioned a lot of times, he sometimes is a 141 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 1: slow starter when he comes back off the injure list. 142 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 1: But he's still gonna make the line up better because 143 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:58,119 Speaker 1: you know he he provides that possibility of one hundred 144 00:07:58,120 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: and twenty mile an hour line drive right back at 145 00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 1: you if you're a pitcher, right, and you bet your ass. 146 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 1: The pitchers know that, so they're gonna be stressful. They're 147 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 1: going to be pitching to them carefully. But you know, 148 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 1: one of the things to watch is if he's chasing 149 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 1: the slider. If he's spitting on the outside sliders as 150 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 1: he does when he's feeling good, and he's balanced at 151 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 1: the plate, then he might be able to avoid that 152 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 1: two for thirty five slump that he typically has when 153 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 1: he comes back. But if he's swinging at that pitch 154 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: missing it by eight pitches, then I mean, I think 155 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: we're in for a long couple of weeks. Hey, quick 156 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 1: shout out to tonight sponsor NordVPN before we get to 157 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: the recap NordVPN dot com slash nyy recaps get a 158 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 1: thirty day money back guarantee VPN stance for Virtual Private network, 159 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:42,559 Speaker 1: Protect your online privacy, protect your data, get around the 160 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,679 Speaker 1: MLB blackout rules.

I'm gonna let you guys drive the bus 169 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 1: a lot tonight. I see a lot of ticked off 170 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: Yankees fans. Nester Cortez just struggled out of the gate. 171 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:22,719 Speaker 1: He loaded the bases, gave up a runn of the 172 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: first inning. He wiggled out of trouble. But you knew 173 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,559 Speaker 1: it was gonna be a long night. Yankees got the 174 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: run right back in the second inning, Anthony Vopi with 175 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:35,319 Speaker 1: a big home run to center field. Hit him in 176 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,079 Speaker 1: the stands, they can't catch him. Good to seeing him 177 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 1: getting his power stroke backed a little bit hold. That's 178 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: his second hold run since the All Star Break, after 179 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: not getting one through about a month a month and 180 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 1: a half. We had some decent defense today. Early in 181 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: the game, Labor Torre has made a nice throat to 182 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:56,319 Speaker 1: nail a runner at home. Ben Rice made a great 183 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:59,679 Speaker 1: sliding catch in foul territory. Red Sox went back out 184 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:01,840 Speaker 1: in front on a hit by Raffaeld Devers in the 185 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: bottom of the third inning. I have no idea why 186 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: you pitched this guy ever, Apparently it's a Massachusetts law. 187 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: It's a state law. You have to pitch to Raffaeld 188 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 1: Devers only way I can explain it. Otherwise I can't 189 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 1: imagine ever throwing that guy something over the plate. Red 190 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: Sox got another run on a double by x Yankee 191 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 1: Rob Refsnyder to make it three to one. I remember 192 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 1: when Rob Refsnyder was a super prospect with the Yankees. 193 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: Actually made his debut in Fenway. 194 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 2: I believe. 195 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 1: Another hit for Volpie in the fourth infield single. Then 196 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 1: he used his speed to score from first on a 197 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:37,679 Speaker 1: double by the centerfielder Trent Grisham. Nice piece of hitting 198 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 1: by Trent. For Dugo tied it up with a sackfly 199 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 1: to left field. 200 00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 2: Just missed the No. 201 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 1: Stra Derek Prediction double off the Monster, so that was 202 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 1: a miss. We had no doubles from from Alex Verdugo, 203 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 1: though he did go two for four. He's sitting two 204 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 1: thirty one. Nice died and catch by Grisham to saber 205 00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:00,199 Speaker 1: run in the bottom half, but the Red Sox went 206 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,679 Speaker 1: right back out in front. Nestor was done after four 207 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 1: and two thirds innings, nine hits allowed, four runs allowed, 208 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: two walks, five strikeouts. Just a terrible day. He continues 209 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 1: to have a lot of stressful outings, a ton of 210 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: base runners. He's hitting too many bats. The cutter's not cutting, 211 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 1: the fastball has no zip. 212 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 2: You know. I don't know how you keep him in 213 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:24,680 Speaker 2: the rotation. 214 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: He's just sinking fast and this is the beginning of 215 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 1: a It's obvious to me that he is tired, that 216 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 1: he's gassed. So I think he needs that yearly two 217 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: week quote unquote groin string. 218 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 2: But tough night for Nester. It stinks. 219 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 1: Top six wasted opportunity for the Yanks. Austin Wells ripped 220 00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: a base hit up the middle and thenk Labor Torre 221 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 1: has roped to double off the monster, but neither one 222 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 1: of them scored. Wells ended up getting thrown out at 223 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 1: home on the contact play. Top seven Yankees got back 224 00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 1: out on top absolute nuke from Aaron Judge. That's another 225 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 1: home runs for Jube oh Rock looked like he left 226 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 1: the stadium in Centerville. Judge three run shot four one 227 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 1: hundred and seventy feet cutter that didn't cut and basically 228 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:23,199 Speaker 1: he hit it to the Massachusetts Turnpike. Thirty six home 229 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:26,200 Speaker 1: runs now ninety two RBIs he's one home run away 230 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 1: from tying his total from last season thirty seven. Next 231 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 1: batter was Austin Wells with come on that crime, beautiful swing. 232 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 1: He's looking like a blush more confident hitter. Three for 233 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:44,719 Speaker 1: five on the night, averages up to two thirty five. 234 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 1: Remember he was wonder two hundred for a long. 235 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 2: Time this season. 236 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: Seven fifty four ops so now creeping up to respectability 237 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 1: hitting in the cleanup spot. Yankees were out in front 238 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 1: seven to four, and that completely silenced Fenway Park for 239 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,840 Speaker 1: a minute, but not for long. Red Sox got two 240 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,440 Speaker 1: runs back on another home run by Raffaella, fifth home 241 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 1: run in eleven games. That made it seven to six 242 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: eleven games versus the Yankee So he's a certified Yankee 243 00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: killer already. 244 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 2: And then Weaver put. 245 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 1: Two runners on in the eighth and the Yankees decided 246 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 1: to go to Clay Homes in the eighth, and of 247 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 1: course he blew the game before you knew it. The 248 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 1: score was nine to seven Red Sox. Like I said earlier, 249 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 1: not entirely his fault. Three runs charged to Luke Weaver, 250 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 1: but another blown saved by Clay Holmes because like my 251 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:35,840 Speaker 1: dad would say, he hits too many bats. 252 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:36,560 Speaker 2: Blow it up. 253 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,959 Speaker 1: Get this dude off the team. I'm serious, I am 254 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 1: done with him. Get him off the team. Yankees threatened 255 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 1: a little bit in the ninth, very tough at bat 256 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 1: from Aaron Judge. We had a base hit from Glabor Torres. 257 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:52,080 Speaker 1: He had three hits, so he's maybe heating up at 258 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 1: the right time for his new team or to prevent 259 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:56,080 Speaker 1: a trade. 260 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 2: But finally swinging the bat. 261 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,839 Speaker 1: A little bit better but Allultimately, Volpi ground it out 262 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 1: too short to end the game and the Yankees drop 263 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:10,559 Speaker 1: another heartbreaker. 264 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 2: Good day. You ain't first, you're laugh beast mode. 265 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 1: Bully says you could create a better team out of 266 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 1: the crowd. Hyperbole, but not far from the truth. Honestly, 267 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 1: the way the Yankees are playing right now, you can 268 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 1: probably get a better closer out of the crowd. Honestly, 269 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 1: I've seen some of these guys throw home runs back. 270 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 1: There's a lot of good arms out there. Tim w says, 271 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep banging this drum Luis heel for closer, 272 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 1: and it might might end up happening. But right now 273 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 1: he's pitching pretty well in the rotation, and you know, 274 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: starting pitchers who can pitch the way he does or not, 275 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: you know, not easy to find. So I don't anticipate 276 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 1: them moving him out of that role anytime soon. We 277 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 1: found out that Garrett Crochet, who's in a similar situation, 278 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 1: is just going to continue to start for the White Sox. 279 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 1: In fact, he's demanding an extension and if the White 280 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 1: Sox trade him an extension to pitch in October, because 281 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 1: he's putting himself at risk. 282 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 2: But it'd be interesting to see if the Yankees just. 283 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 1: Maintain, you know, the routine with the heel and continue 284 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 1: to pitch him every five days. Demetrius says, it's why 285 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: Korra didn't want Verdugo. One for twenty one hits, a homer, 286 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 1: then takes thirty three seconds around the bases, get him 287 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 1: off my team? Why didn't Boone send uh. 288 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 2: Send him in the fourth look. 289 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 1: Verdugo obviously got off to a great start with the Yankees, 290 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 1: but has slumped badly over the last couple of months. 291 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 1: I appreciate his effort in the outfield. He's a good outfielder, 292 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,600 Speaker 1: he really is. Forget that one that he fell down 293 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 1: on to end the first half. Most of the time 294 00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 1: he's gonna catch that. He's a good outfielder. But he 295 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 1: is not a good hitter. He tries to pull the 296 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 1: ball way too much. Got a little bit of opposite 297 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 1: field pop. Honestly, I'm surprised he didn't stay in Fenway 298 00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 1: because you know, if he learns to hit fly ball 299 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 1: the other way, he's got enough pop to hit a 300 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: million doubles in Fenway. And in fact, he did hit 301 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 1: a lot of doubles when he was with the Red Sox. 302 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 1: Got a couple more super chats rolling in Booty Meat says, 303 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 1: what do you expect from DJ? I don't expect much 304 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 1: from DJ at this point. In fact, I expect bad results. 305 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 1: I expect ground balls and strikeouts because he's conditioned us 306 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 1: to expect that. You know, pavlogs, pavlogs this dog, I 307 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 1: think it's called where you know. They would ring a 308 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 1: bell and then they would give the dog a treat, 309 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 1: and they basically conditioned the dog to drool whenever he 310 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 1: hears the bell. Whenever DJ comes up to play, I 311 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 1: immediately my body sends out its distress hormones and I 312 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:51,840 Speaker 1: sink into a panic because I know bad things are coming. 313 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 1: Doctor Randy Kokway says, I think we need ten runs 314 00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 1: not to blow a save and a w Look. I 315 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: was talking to to Rosenthal the other day in our 316 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:05,240 Speaker 1: meeting and I said, man, the Yankees are playing bad, 317 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 1: and he said, you know what, man, they stink. He 318 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,639 Speaker 1: was just breaking it down from a, you know, a 319 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:14,119 Speaker 1: very simple perspective, and he said, they stink. 320 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,200 Speaker 2: And you know it took me a second. 321 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 1: I'm like, you know what, Right now they do because 322 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 1: they're playing basically one game ahead of the White Sox 323 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,439 Speaker 1: for the last month and a half. Right now, they stink. 324 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 1: Comedian Moe Brown says Ben Rice needs to go Rice 325 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 1: zero for four with a couple of strikeouts. He's hitting 326 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 1: one eighty eight. You know, he got off to that 327 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:35,879 Speaker 1: great start, he had that three home run game, but 328 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 1: the league has adjusted throwing him more breaking balls and 329 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,359 Speaker 1: he has struggled to adapt. The same thing happened with 330 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: Austin Wells, the same thing happened with Anthony Volpi. Most 331 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 1: players struggle a little bit when you first call him up. 332 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:52,200 Speaker 1: It is not unusual. The problem is having to count 333 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: on him because the rest of the lineup is so weak. 334 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,159 Speaker 1: We shouldn't have to count on ben Rice to be 335 00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 1: the number six hitter. I feel like I'm gonna sneeze. 336 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna try not to. We'll see, but ben Rice 337 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 1: oh for four now continues to struggle. Let's take a 338 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 1: look at the box score, because both teams had fourteen 339 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:11,920 Speaker 1: hits tonight, so it was a slug fest. It was 340 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,919 Speaker 1: a Fenway slug fest. Two for four from Verdugo. Soto 341 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 1: took the collar oh for four, but he did have 342 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 1: a walk. Judge one for four with the three run 343 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 1: home run, Wells three for five, Torres three for five, Rice, 344 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 1: oh for four, Lemayhew oh for one in a crucial spot, 345 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: Volpi two for five with a couple of runs scored, 346 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,639 Speaker 1: Grisham one for three with an RBI and a walk. 347 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:36,920 Speaker 1: Cabrera at two for four now hitting two forty seven. 348 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 1: Cabrera very quietly sneaking back up there in the batting average. 349 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 1: He gets a lot of multi hit games. You know, 350 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,119 Speaker 1: he's either zero for four or he'll get two hits. 351 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,680 Speaker 1: You know, some guys are like a vitamin one a day. 352 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 1: But really the pitching was the problem today. Weaver, Tim Hill, 353 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: and Clay Holmes all gave up runs. Tommy Kinley the 354 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 1: only relief pitcher who did a decent job, scoreless, ending 355 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 1: with three strikeouts. 356 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:05,960 Speaker 2: But bullpen gave it up today. Not what you want. 357 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 1: Tommy C's Cat says Rice will be fine. He's brand new, 358 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:17,160 Speaker 1: still got that new car smell. I think Rice will 359 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,120 Speaker 1: be fine. He still has good at bats. He's struggling 360 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,919 Speaker 1: against major league breaking balls. He's gonna have to make adjustments. 361 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:25,679 Speaker 1: You either learn to lay off of them or you 362 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 1: learn to hit them. Danny's Crespo says this team is done. 363 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 1: Sell at the deadline. I don't think they're gonna sell 364 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:36,119 Speaker 1: at the deadline. 365 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 2: Don't smoke crack. 366 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:45,720 Speaker 1: Cherry Cobber says the Yankees never disappointed, but he says 367 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 1: it facetiously given the emojis. It's been a very trying, 368 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 1: very disappointing couple of months, and I don't blame you if, 369 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:58,160 Speaker 1: like me, you are struggling to maintain the will to live. 370 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,160 Speaker 2: We still got over two months. 371 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 1: Left, and we're still five days from the trade deadline, 372 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 1: four days from the trade deadline, something like that. But 373 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:08,120 Speaker 1: hang in there. 374 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:08,919 Speaker 2: You never know. 375 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:12,679 Speaker 1: Cashman might surprise us. We've seen him surprise us before 376 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 1: a couple of years ago. It was Frankie Montas, it 377 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 1: was Andrew Benintendi, it was Scott Efross. We're hearing rumors 378 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 1: about Jamis and ty On coming back. I would take 379 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 1: Tyon over Nester Cortez right now, wouldn't you. We've heard 380 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 1: some rumors about Chad Green, We've heard some rumors about 381 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:34,399 Speaker 1: David Robertson. But I don't think the Rangers are going 382 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:37,679 Speaker 1: to sell. I think the Rangers are close enough to 383 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 1: the Al West lead that they're going to hang in there. 384 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 1: They know from last year that anything can happen down 385 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 1: the stretch. We've got a couple of guys out there 386 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 1: who might be able to help us. Bellinger left handed bat. 387 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 1: I could see putting him at first base. The Yankees 388 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 1: are one of the few teams that can make that 389 00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:00,439 Speaker 1: trade because if he exercises his option, it doesn't really 390 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:03,399 Speaker 1: hurt the Yankees that much. One year deal, but take 391 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 1: a one year deal. I'm not that worried about Bellinger. 392 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:11,359 Speaker 1: I think he's going to continue to play well. If 393 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 1: the Yankees decide to pick him up, I'd be perfectly 394 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:15,440 Speaker 1: fine with it. That allows you to put Rice back 395 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:16,960 Speaker 1: in Triple A for a bit. He didn't have a 396 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 1: lot of time in Triple A. I think they could 397 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:22,720 Speaker 1: go get a third baseman. Matt Chapman was discussed today 398 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,880 Speaker 1: on foul territory. I think that, uh, you know, the 399 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:29,399 Speaker 1: points that Todd Fraser was making were very good. He 400 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: still brings a great gold glove to third base. He's 401 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 1: got more power than LeMay, who's got fourteen home runs 402 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:37,639 Speaker 1: this year. I don't know what he did tonight, but 403 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:44,680 Speaker 1: you know LeMay who is nearing the end. Michael Kay 404 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,200 Speaker 1: said tonight that you got the feeling like his job 405 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 1: could be on the line without a bat and he 406 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 1: struck out and it was a week at bat. DJ LeMay, 407 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:55,399 Speaker 1: you I'm gonna pull up his numbers because it's ridiculous. 408 00:21:55,880 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 1: Right now, he's hitting one seventy eight. It's loading for 409 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 1: me right now, but he's hitting one seventy eight. 410 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:04,160 Speaker 2: On the season. Here we go. 411 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,120 Speaker 1: One home run, twelve RBIs in one hundred and thirty 412 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:15,399 Speaker 1: five at bats. That's just simply not acceptable. It's the 413 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 1: ride might be over for DJ. I hate to say it, 414 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:26,040 Speaker 1: but it's looking that way. Oswaldo been playing much better 415 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:27,880 Speaker 1: than DJ. I think he's gonna take DJ's job. 416 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 2: I really will. 417 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:30,879 Speaker 1: It'd be interesting to see if the Yankees pick up 418 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 1: a third baseman. 419 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:33,640 Speaker 2: But I think. 420 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: You know, DJ at best is a utility defensive replacement 421 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:42,399 Speaker 1: right now, Doug Grause says, And Michael ka is always 422 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:44,960 Speaker 1: three months late to catch on to what we can 423 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,479 Speaker 1: all see. And then Brian Cashman and his crew are 424 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:51,400 Speaker 1: about a week after that. You know they're they're they're 425 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 1: they're a little bit further beyond. So tough night for 426 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:57,959 Speaker 1: the Yankees. Let's get to your final thoughts. 427 00:22:58,200 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 2: It was hot, that is far. 428 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 1: At some point we got to address the elephant in 429 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:08,440 Speaker 1: the room of we don't have a closer. You can't 430 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,120 Speaker 1: continue to rely on Clay Holmes just serves up too 431 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:15,359 Speaker 1: many hit able pitches. The bullpen needs at least two 432 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 1: or three arms, You need at least two or three bats. 433 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 1: And I know the Yankees don't want to empty out 434 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: the farm, but it's looking like they're gonna have to 435 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,120 Speaker 1: at least part with some big names because they need 436 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:34,639 Speaker 1: a lot of players. So throw Central says it's crazy 437 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,360 Speaker 1: how the team, how the fan base is more qualified. 438 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 2: To run this team than the front office. I don't 439 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,679 Speaker 2: know about that. I couldn't run it. 440 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:43,440 Speaker 1: I mean there's a lot that goes into it, into 441 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 1: a multi million dollar, billion dollar corporation, but certainly not 442 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:51,360 Speaker 1: satisfied with the results. And I think if you gave 443 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 1: me three hundred million dollars to run the team, I 444 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: think I could probably put together a better roster. I'm 445 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 1: not gonna lie about that. But Demetrius says, we need 446 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 1: to Anderson what to play baseball. 447 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:08,199 Speaker 2: I don't think so. 448 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,439 Speaker 1: If we want him to, you know, spar with some guys, 449 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,440 Speaker 1: you know, and be basically a knockout dummy, we can 450 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 1: take that. But Uh, Jonathan India is being considered possible infielder. 451 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:27,119 Speaker 1: Uh Alex says, it's right in front of us, it's 452 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 1: right in front of us. 453 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:33,199 Speaker 2: It's what it is. 454 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 1: What it is, It's what it is, what it is, 455 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 1: it's what it is. Alex says, it's Bower time. Look, 456 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 1: Bauer was willing to take a minor league or a 457 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 1: league minimum deal and he still hasn't been signed. I 458 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:49,880 Speaker 1: think that's clear to me, it's clear enough. Now we're 459 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:54,280 Speaker 1: three and a half months into the season that he's 460 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:57,160 Speaker 1: not coming back. Bauer is done as a major league 461 00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:00,399 Speaker 1: baseball player. You know, his career is probably over. But 462 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 1: all right, ladies and gentlemen, thanks for watching. We got 463 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 1: over twelve hundred still in the chat.
