Inside the $2.6B investment that values the Yankees at $10B + PT postgame reax to Yanks taking down M’s · Foul Territory

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Show me the money.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: Oh Hevanralik and his terrible mustache is joining us right
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: now from the athletic Evan. Yeah, I guess that's surfer
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: Die skater Die. I don't know what you're going for.
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: It's not definitely not super Troopers. We'll just we'll say that, Okay.
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: Yesterday it was announcing New York Yankees reached a deal
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: with Apollo Sports Capital. We're investing two point six billion
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: in the parent company the New York Yankees. What do
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: you say on this, Evandralic?
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: And does it how much?
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: This means the Yankees are worth ten plus billion because
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: they can only invest a certain amount right into a team.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Private equity groups are limited in how much they
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: can invest into a single team. It's one group can
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: have no more than fifteen percent of a single team,
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: and you cannot have more than thirty percent between multiple
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: firms for one team. This is a little bit complicated
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: because the transaction, the two point six billion dollars is
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: an investment in the parent company of the Yankees. It's
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: called Yankee Global Enterprises, so that includes the Yankees, but
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: it is not only the Yankees. That parent company has
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: a slice in ac Milan NYCFC, another soccer team. They
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: operate some of the Yes network. So what my reporting
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: showed two sources who said this values the Yankees themselves
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: at close to ten billion dollars. So that might ultimately
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: be nine points something billion, which is somewhat in line
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: with one of the public projections I think with Sportico
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: in the spring peg the Yankees at nine point four billion.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: What's the bottom line here. It gives the Yankees some cash.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: It is an infusion of money for what is still
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: ultimately a family run team. And a lot of times
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: now these family run teams, the only place you can
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: kind of turn is to what's called institutional investors, the
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: private equity firm. And we're seeing it across baseball. We're
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: seeing it across the other leagues, the continued interests that
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: these private equity groups have in getting their hand into
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: the pot that keeps growing in baseball.
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: All right, stay with me here, we're gonna put on
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: this We're gonna put on this hat.
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: There was this idea.
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: That when Trek Scuba went to the Dodgers across the
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: league that a small market team like the Detroit Tigers
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: are allowing the Dodgers to go out and win so
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: they can hopefully get a lockout in a salary cap.
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: Now you have a team like the New York Yankees,
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: are they flexing on the other owners because there is
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: this idea that the lockout is Yes, it's between the
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: owners and the players, but there's a lot of different
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: layers of ownership group somewhat the salary cap. Teams like
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: the Yankees in a big market probably don't want the
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: salary cap. Is this an idea of the Yankees flexing
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: and being like, we don't want a salary cap? This
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: is actually and they're kind of in order for a
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: private equity team to invest in them, they have to
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: open the books so they know this team is profitable.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, how much they open the books is an interesting
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: question because Rob Manford at the All Star Game you're
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: talking to reporters said that they're very limited in the
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: information they give. Obviously, there's got to be some information
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: that flows, But to the larger question, is this flexing.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: I spent a lot of yesterday trying to sort through
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: kind of the dueling narratives of this. On one side,
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: you've got I talked to Joel Wolfe to Scott Boris,
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: you to top agents who are saying, look, this shows
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: the health of the business. If the Yankees are getting
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: two point six billion dollars or the parent company the
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Yankees is getting that amount of money, things are going
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: pretty good. It's hard to sneeze at that amount of money.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: And then on the other side you have people who
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: will say, well, you know, the fact that they needed
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: or wanted the cash at all, what does that tell you?
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: And also if still if you look out a the
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: NBA and the NFL, these franchises are valued higher. And
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: then today we have news that the Lakers are being
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: sold now for twelve billion, which is you know, the Lakers,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: I believe the highest valued franchise in the NBA. Could
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: be wrong on that, and the Yankees still are the
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: highest valued franchise in baseball. And so you have the
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: basketball one trading at higher than the baseball one. It's
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: a feeling on the ownership side that yeah, this is
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: this is good, but it could be better. And that's
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: the argument for a cap that they're making is not
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: necessarily that it's bad, although some people do try to
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: swing it that way, but that it could be a
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: lot better. That if you look at the other leagues.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: It should it should be even more than this. And
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: then on the player side, it's you guys are doing fine.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: What are you talking about? Your valuation is now close
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: to ten billion dollars? What are you complaining about?
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Evan, does this mean the Yankees are poor?
• 4:53
  Speaker 5: Is it?
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: I mean?
• 4:54
  Speaker 6: I just?
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: I mean? And what does what role does this change
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: for the Steying in her family?
• 5:00
  Speaker 7: Right?
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: Is?
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: How does this change how's role?
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: Does Apollo get any stake in making decisions? Or are
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: they just investing cash to try to help the Yankees
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: get out of debt so someone can go buy something
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: a new jet or something. Right, Because I don't a
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: lot of people, including myself, don't know enough about this
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: to understand what this truly means. Can you explain it
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: in you know, polish dumb people terms, please?
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah. The most simple is they they now have more
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: cash on hand. The question, the heart of it, what
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: you're asking, is, well, what do they want that for?
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: And that at this point is a little bit of
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: informed speculation. I talked to some people who have some
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: knowledge of the deal who said that this isn't because
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: there's some big thing coming up, Although it was noted that, look,
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: if you're going to go into a long lockout, doesn't
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: hurt to have more cash on hand. The Yankees do
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: have a lot of debt from the stadium construction, that's
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: still a part of it, and a lot of teams
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: have debt here, and so ultimately, you know, how the
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: Steinbrenner family wants to use this money. Is this to
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: satisfy demands or requests from other members of the family.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: Sometimes when you have family run teams, you end up
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: with a lot of hands out basically, you know, and
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: sometimes it can lead to teams being sold. Fully, I'm
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: not saying that's going to happen here. There's a lot
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: of reasons it could be, but it doesn't seem that
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: the answer at this point. There's no evidence to this
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: point that the answer is the Yankees are truly cash
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: poor and absolutely needed a liquidity. It could be as
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: simple as they liked the valuation they got. If somebody
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: is willing to pay at your market rate or maybe
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: a little bit above it. In the case of the Yankees,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: if you're approaching ten billion dollars, you might say, okay,
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: come on in, we'll we'll take that money. Now. The
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: interesting question a little bit is well, if the owners
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: get a salary cap, those values are going to go up.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: And so if they waited a year year, maybe they
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: could even get more if indeed the owner's got a cap.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: But that's no promise they get a cap. And part
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: of the appeal right now, if you're a private equity
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: group trying to get involved with baseball, is well, if
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: they get a cap, my investment will go up right away.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: They they see the earning potential with a cap in
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: the near future. And so you know which of those
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: forces really motivated the Yankees. We just aren't totally sure
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: at this point. But it doesn't seem like they, you know,
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: were unable to write checks or anything like that. Certainly
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: certainly no evidence of.
• 7:36
  Speaker 6: That science experiment. For the one minute, we have to
• 7:41
  Speaker 6: tell you about why we love quints electrolytes including watermelon salt,
• 7:45
  Speaker 6: raspberry salt. And I'm holding a citrus salt, just opened
• 7:48
  Speaker 6: it and pour some powder into my water, shake it up,
• 7:51
  Speaker 6: and AJ, why do you love it?
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: I love quints because after a long night out, a
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: long day at the gym, a long walk in this
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: Florida humidity, it tastes great and It gives me all
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: the electrolytes I need. Why sugar free, Stevia free, Keto
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: approve and taste sweet because of that delicious fermented rice.
• 8:10
  Speaker 6: It does taste really good. I'm drinking it right now
• 8:13
  Speaker 6: while we talking about it. It's also made in the USA,
• 8:15
  Speaker 6: rigorously third party tested. Give your body what it really
• 8:19
  Speaker 6: needs to stay hydrated. Go to quints dot com slash

• 8:36
  Speaker 6: any disease.
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: From the player side and the Players Association side, is
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: this great timing because I think franchise values are always
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: kind of implied, but when you actually get concrete evidence
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: the padre selling for what they sold for and then
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: this investment to the Yankees. Is this great timing for
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: the Players Association?
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: I think it's it gives a compelling narrative talking point
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: to look the Joe wolfsm Scott or so. I talked
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: to you guys today, to Bruce Meyer, the head of
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: the Union, and I think it should be eye opening
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: to players that this amount of money and these valuations
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: are coming in to club owners. It's kind of an
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: incontrovertible fact that these franchises are worth a lot of money.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: It doesn't out of hand defeat an argument of well,
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: could it be better? None of this conversation should be around.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: Is it truly bad? I think it's hard to argue
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: anything that's selling in the billions is bad, even in
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: a relative sense that the owner arguments center on it
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: could be better. The other leagues are are making more.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: There's something called revenue multiple. So when the NBA and
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: NFL franchises sell, they might sell for ten, eleven, twelve
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: times what they bring in annually, and in baseball that's
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: been six times seven times. And you got the small
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: market owners who will go, well, all right, the Yankees
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: got that, but what about us, you know, the Washington
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: Nationals I believe in. You know, in recent years, their
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: value has, according to the public lists like Forbes, appreciated
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: the least. You know, So even if the Yankees and
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: the Dodgers are doing well. It still kind of fits
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: in with that narrative that they have of the haves
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: and the have nots. But yeah, for the player purposes,
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: for the union purposes to be able to say, there's
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: a lot of money over there, what's the problem. There's
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: certainly some validity to that argument.
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: Heavan.
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: Every sport has differences. The Lakers sold for twelve billion, Whoever,
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: the next team in the NBA won't sell for that much.
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: So it just depends the Cowboys are worth more than
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: another team, and they're in salary cap leagues. So that
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: that argument is is.
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: What it is.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: It's going to be made repeatedly, repeatedly, repeatedly, whatever. But
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: how much does this franchise of valuation? How much is
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: that going to factor do you think into the CBA?
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: You kind of hit on a little bit. But isn't
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: this the biggest thing? Because if they do get a
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: salary cap, it'll make their franchise values go more. Then
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: they can borrow against the franchise values to do other things.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: So how important is this franchise evaluation? And now with
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: the Yankees setting the bar at I guess ten billion ish,
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: you know whatever. However, you want to play with the numbers, right,
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: So how much does this matter in the CBA.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, just to your first point real quick there, Aja, Yeah,
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: you can make an argument that, well, if you wanted
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: a basketball or hockey or basketball or football type of valuation,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: you should have bought a basketball or football franchise, right, true,
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: And I think there is some tension around even inside
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: of baseball the big markets in the small markets, where
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: when you buy a big market franchise, you are buying
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: the set of rights and grants that come with that
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: big market. And you know this evening of the playing
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: field idea, well Scott wors talks about it a lot,
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: but there's some validity to it. You know, you want
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: to let your best owners run free and have the
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: ability to separate themselves to some degree. But that said,
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: in a cap system, all of the franchises would benefit.
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: And that gets to what you're asking about with with
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: franchise values. If you have fixed labor costs, if you know,
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: going in every year, how much money you're going to
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: spend on labor, and by the league argument, if things
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: are just a little bit more equal and the small
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: markets are kind of propped up a bit. Well, then
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: you know it lifts all the boats. All the franchise
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: values go up. Here when you're talking about a workstoppage
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: and you're talking about potentially missing billions of dollars, you
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: don't miss billions of dollars in revenue unless you think
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: in the long run it will make you billions of
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: dollars and some x number more. And so as much
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: as the league frames everything around competitive balance, it is
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: about money. And if you at a cap, if you're
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: the owners, you make your franchises instantly more valuable. But
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: it's not the easiest thing to say we're going to
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: sacrifice the short term for the long term. Everybody can
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: kind of think that's a nice idea, but there's a
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: lot of pain that it would take to go through
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: with that. But yeah, the franchise values are a central
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: piece of all this. If you remember four five years ago,
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: right after the last CBA, Manford convened this group called
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: the Economic Reform Committee, And what he said last year
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: at a Brave Public Investor invent was that the purpose
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: of that was to look at franchise values. And so
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: it is a like he's the CEO of Baseball, Rob
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: Manford if you're the CEO of baseball, one of your,
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: if not the top concern is what is the worth
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: of the company of the assets, its shareholder value? You
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: know it is. I don't think it's a stretch to
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: say the most important thing.
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: All right, I got one final question for you, and
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: to forgive my being naive on this topic, how long
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: has private equity been in the game of baseball? And
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: do you see more teams taking loans from private equity
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: selling shares of private equity? And would it be a
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: bad idea for a small quote unquote small market team
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: to take money from a private equity team, because then
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: we would actually really know what the franchise value is.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: I believe the first year this was allowed in baseball
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: was twenty nineteen. It might have been twenty eighteen, but
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: it was right before the start of the pandemic that
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: Baseball and then the other leagues started to allow private
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: equity in. And you know, they put this cap on
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: it so that they don't theoretically have a lot of
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: sway over or ideally any sway over the ultimate decision making. Right,
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: the pe firm cannot be the controlling partner, you know,
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: the one person vote when they have all the you know,
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: an all thirty club vote. But what could happen over
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: time here is that the leagues could change their rules
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: and say, okay, we'll let somebody in at a higher percentage.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: Even at this percentage, I think there's some background concern of, well,
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: how will this affect the operation of teams long term?
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: PE gets involved to eventually make money there is there's
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: also some glamour with it. You know, it's kind of
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: a trophy asset for your for your fund if you're
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: involved in it. So it's not apples to apples with
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: everything else that private equity gets involved with. But at
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: some point they're going to want to return, and so
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: that puts pressure on the league to do things like
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: get a salary cap and whatever other ways. You know
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: that the PE firm might say, hey, could we try
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: to make some more money here? You know, should should
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: teams take it? Well? Teams love to make money, uh,
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: and if you can get a cash infusion from an
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: institutional investor, a lot of them are going to go,
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: well why not? This might raise our franchise values. And
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: in a lot of cases now the teams sell for
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: so much that it's not super easy, or as easy
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: as it might have once been, to find people who
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: can afford to buy into these teams as individuals. You know,
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: it almost takes a group of people these days, or
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: at least kind of the help of an institution, to
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: be able to get these deals done. As these things
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: keep climbing and climbing. So yeah, if you want your
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: franchise values to climb, you can. If you can find
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: a PE firm that'll buy it by a slice of
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: your team at a higher rate than you might have
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: otherwise thought you could get, you're probably gonna do it
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: all right.
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: Well perfect, we're gonna get Pe to invest in Foul Territory.
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: I heard they're going to put it give us about
• 16:46

• 17:01

• 17:03
  Speaker 3: So thanks Evan.

  Speaker 1: Just wanted to pull up captroll.
• 18:18
  Speaker 9: All right, boy? We needed that one. That was a
• 18:22
  Speaker 9: good game. Welcome back, everybody. Game one hundred and twenty
• 18:26
  Speaker 9: is in the books. The Yankees win this one with
• 18:28
  Speaker 9: an offensive outburst like we have not seen from them
• 18:32
  Speaker 9: in quite a while. Ten runs. They win this one,
• 18:35
  Speaker 9: ten to five. There's a lot of action in this game.
• 18:38
  Speaker 9: This felt like an actual baseball game and not like
• 18:40
  Speaker 9: a soccer match. Pretty fun game. I love the way
• 18:45
  Speaker 9: ESPN was mixing the sound tonight. Normally I'm not an
• 18:47
  Speaker 9: ESPN fan, but the way they put the emphasis in
• 18:51
  Speaker 9: the sound mixing on the bat contact, that was awesome.
• 18:57
  Speaker 9: I mean that was awesome tonight. Just a kudo to
• 19:00
  Speaker 9: their production team. Great night for Spencer Jones, who had,
• 19:03
  Speaker 9: in my opinion, his best night in the Major League
• 19:07
  Speaker 9: so far. He had a really good at pat to
• 19:11
  Speaker 9: before lining a double off the left field wall. He
• 19:14
  Speaker 9: had two hits tonight, two doubles and three RBI, so
• 19:19
  Speaker 9: a very good night for Spencer Jones. Getting more comfortable.
• 19:23
  Speaker 9: We had two home runs tonight from mister Trent Grisham,
• 19:27
  Speaker 9: who is beginning to heat up. I mentioned it before
• 19:32
  Speaker 9: the series that he was hitting the ball harder last night.
• 19:34
  Speaker 9: I mentioned the contact from him has been louder and tonight,
• 19:37
  Speaker 9: the contact was really loud, even with the ESPN cameras
• 19:40
  Speaker 9: boosting it a little bit. Three for five, two home runs,
• 19:43
  Speaker 9: four RBIs, three runs scored, got the average up to
• 19:46
  Speaker 9: two twenty two to fifteen home runs and fifty RBIs.
• 19:49
  Speaker 9: Now for the mustachioed one, however, I will say there
• 19:56
  Speaker 9: was a pop up to center field, and I don't
• 19:58
  Speaker 9: know what was going on. I don't know if he
• 20:00
  Speaker 9: was finishing a game of words with friends or something
• 20:02
  Speaker 9: like that, but he took forever to charge in on
• 20:06
  Speaker 9: a routine pop up that he should have been camped under,
• 20:09
  Speaker 9: and it did not look like Will Warren appreciated it
• 20:12
  Speaker 9: very much. He also had a double, go ahead double,
• 20:16
  Speaker 9: So good night for him, Rocky night for Will Warren.
• 20:20
  Speaker 9: What can you say about him?
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: Time to stop throwing these game.
• 20:24
  Speaker 9: Bars, five runs, four walks and three home runs for
• 20:29
  Speaker 9: Will Warren, who was probably moving to the bullpen in
• 20:31
  Speaker 9: the pretty near future. But we had the first major
• 20:36
  Speaker 9: league error from George Lombard Junior. But he also had
• 20:40
  Speaker 9: a couple of rope absolute line drive singles. As he
• 20:44
  Speaker 9: continues to impress every single day. Even when he makes
• 20:48
  Speaker 9: an error, he does something impressive multi hit game. Now
• 20:51
  Speaker 9: in his limited major league duty, hitting three twenty with
• 20:55
  Speaker 9: two home runs, two RBIs in a one to sixty
• 20:58
  Speaker 9: six WRC plus, he has struck out of the time,
• 21:01
  Speaker 9: still looking for that first double, that first triple, and
• 21:04
  Speaker 9: that first stolen base. Three ninety three on base percentage.
• 21:07
  Speaker 9: He's shown a really patient eye, and aside from the air,
• 21:10
  Speaker 9: he's looked fantastic at shortstop. But errors happen. Everybody's gonna
• 21:14
  Speaker 9: make airrors. Don't worry about it. You had a number
• 21:16
  Speaker 9: of extra base hits tonight. Austin Wells ripped a double.
• 21:20
  Speaker 9: You had Rice not gonna run by the way wearing
• 21:22
  Speaker 9: my Ben a Roy's shirt here courtesy of the foul
• 21:26
  Speaker 9: Territory Shop. Go to foul Territory shop dot com for that.
• 21:29
  Speaker 9: Yankees turned a couple of double plays tonight, and when
• 21:31
  Speaker 9: the dust settled, they had themselves a ten to five win,
• 21:35
  Speaker 9: Paul Blackburn with the w Gabe Spear with the loss,
• 21:40
  Speaker 9: and Paul Blackburn sporting a one point nine zero ERA
• 21:44
  Speaker 9: this season. I did not anticipate that he has really, really,
• 21:50
  Speaker 9: really been good. We got a couple of comments here,
• 21:52
  Speaker 9: Tyler Revas says Ramos two for twenty four. Stince being
• 21:55
  Speaker 9: with the Yankees. Since coming with the Yankee coming to
• 21:57
  Speaker 9: the Yankees, he has not been great. And he had
• 22:00
  Speaker 9: another tough night tonight. And the way that Spencer Jones
• 22:03
  Speaker 9: is picking it up, and the way that Trent Grisham
• 22:06
  Speaker 9: is picking it up, you wonder if when Bellinger comes back,
• 22:08
  Speaker 9: if Ramos is gonna become that fourth outfielder on the bench.
• 22:12
  Speaker 9: OH for three in this game tonight. Has not done
• 22:14
  Speaker 9: much since being acquired from the San Francisco Giants at
• 22:17
  Speaker 9: the trade deadline. All right, let's talk about the good, bad,
• 22:20
  Speaker 9: and the ugly. So Trent Grisham gets a gold Star tonight,
• 22:28
  Speaker 9: three hits and two dingers, Ben Rice multi hit games,
• 22:32
  Speaker 9: Spencer Jones with a great night, Garcia had a tough
• 22:35
  Speaker 9: night oh for four, and Ramos so the new guys
• 22:37
  Speaker 9: oh for seven combined. Jazz one for three with a walk.
• 22:40
  Speaker 9: Ryan McMahon continues to heat up a little bit. He
• 22:42
  Speaker 9: had a double Wells with another extra base hit, and
• 22:45
  Speaker 9: then George Lombard Junior with a multi hit game. Good
• 22:49
  Speaker 9: day for the Yankees offense and runs. All right, so
• 22:55
  Speaker 9: let's get to the nitty gritty and kind of go
• 22:58
  Speaker 9: through the main takeaways here. First off, the bullpen deserves
• 23:04
  Speaker 9: a ton of credit. Tonight Warren obviously did not have it,
• 23:07
  Speaker 9: but Tim Hill, Paul Blackburn, and Brent Hedrick were all dealing.
• 23:13
  Speaker 9: Hendrick has been amazing, just amazing this season. What can
• 23:18
  Speaker 9: you say about the guy? Total surprise, total surprise. And
• 23:24
  Speaker 9: tonight another scoreless inning with three punches. Deal Santos also
• 23:29
  Speaker 9: threw a scoreless inning, although he allowed two hits. Also
• 23:34
  Speaker 9: with this Yankees win, they don't gain any ground on
• 23:39
  Speaker 9: the Rays because the Rays won today too, but they
• 23:42
  Speaker 9: do gain on the Boston Red Sox and Boston Red
• 23:44
  Speaker 9: Sox have hit a little bit of a skid after
• 23:46
  Speaker 9: that unbelievable hot streak. Randy and ross Arena and Julio
• 23:50
  Speaker 9: Rodriguez opposite field home runs in the first inning off
• 23:53
  Speaker 9: of Warren. You knew it wasn't gonna be Warren's night.
• 23:55
  Speaker 9: At that point, Kevin lar was like, you know, let's
• 23:59
  Speaker 9: probably not a home run in a lot of stadiums. Meanwhile,
• 24:02
  Speaker 9: the ball's landing in the second deck. I think that
• 24:03
  Speaker 9: the Julio's home run was probably a home run pretty
• 24:06
  Speaker 9: much everywhere. In the second inning, you know, there's a
• 24:08
  Speaker 9: pop up to center field. I don't know what Grishaan
• 24:12
  Speaker 9: was doing. I mean, was he reading the newspaper? What
• 24:14
  Speaker 9: was he doing? He was taken all day to react
• 24:18
  Speaker 9: to that pop up. It was like that scene in
• 24:21
  Speaker 9: Nightmare and Elm Street where Freddy is chasing Nancy up
• 24:24
  Speaker 9: the stairs and the stairs turn to like quicksand this
• 24:27
  Speaker 9: like mushy oatmeal goo, and she can't get up the
• 24:31
  Speaker 9: stairs and Freddy's chasing her. That's what I think. I
• 24:34
  Speaker 9: think Christiaan was having a Freddy nightmare. He could not run,
• 24:38
  Speaker 9: but he did make up for it with his bat.
• 24:40
  Speaker 9: Big home run to cut the lead in the fifth inning,
• 24:43
  Speaker 9: swung at the first pitch, no doubter, a lot more
• 24:45
  Speaker 9: hard contact, go ahead double in the seventh, and a
• 24:48
  Speaker 9: two run shot in the eighth.
• 24:52
  Speaker 5: League.
• 24:52
  Speaker 9: Choose that building up the little so some positives and
• 24:56
  Speaker 9: some negatives. Will the negative hold him back from getting
• 25:00
  Speaker 9: the belt we'll see in just a minute. Don't change
• 25:02
  Speaker 9: that station. McMahon been swinging it better lately, ripped in
• 25:07
  Speaker 9: RBI double. Let's take a look at McMahon's numbers as
• 25:10
  Speaker 9: we zoom out on him a little bit, or zoom
• 25:12
  Speaker 9: in on him. So two for four in this game
• 25:15
  Speaker 9: with an RBI now hitting two twenty ten home run
• 25:17
  Speaker 9: six to sixty three ops eighty four WRC plus, so
• 25:20
  Speaker 9: you're taking a sixteen percent hit from league average offensively
• 25:25
  Speaker 9: with him, but he does give you a lot defensively
• 25:28
  Speaker 9: on base percentage I wish was higher with him. The
• 25:32
  Speaker 9: way he plays defense. I can tolerate a low average,
• 25:34
  Speaker 9: but I want him to walk a little bit more,
• 25:36
  Speaker 9: maybe hit for a little bit more power with a
• 25:38
  Speaker 9: two twenty average. If you're playing good defense and you
• 25:42
  Speaker 9: hit twenty five homers and get on base at a
• 25:45
  Speaker 9: three to twenty clip, you'll take it. If you're playing
• 25:48
  Speaker 9: great defense, that is. But we'd love to see him
• 25:51
  Speaker 9: get hot. He got off to a slow start. We'll
• 25:52
  Speaker 9: see how it shakes out. But been swinging the bat
• 25:55
  Speaker 9: better lately. I love the double by Austin Wells in
• 25:58
  Speaker 9: the third inning. It was a good He roped it
• 26:01
  Speaker 9: into the right field corner, and all year long he's
• 26:04
  Speaker 9: been swinging over that down and in pitch, and today
• 26:08
  Speaker 9: he basically just pull his hands in and drop the
• 26:11
  Speaker 9: barrel of the bat on it, and again it sounded fantastic.
• 26:15
  Speaker 9: Austin Wells creeping up towards two hundred. Take a look
• 26:19
  Speaker 9: at his numbers here, he is at one eighty, so
• 26:23
  Speaker 9: not quite, but he's he's creeping. Let me know in
• 26:26
  Speaker 9: the chat if you think Austin Wells is gonna get
• 26:28
  Speaker 9: to two hundred with the average before the season is over.
• 26:31
  Speaker 9: But yeah, I mean eight home runs seventeen RBIs obviously
• 26:35
  Speaker 9: not productive this year. You just hope he can finish strong.
• 26:38
  Speaker 9: He's not gonna hit thirty home runs. He's not gonna
• 26:41
  Speaker 9: probably even hit fifteen home runs. Just finish strong, you had.
• 26:48
  Speaker 9: Let's see Spencer Jones, in my opinion, the best game
• 26:51
  Speaker 9: of his young career, the best a bat of his
• 26:53
  Speaker 9: career was the out two runners on double in the
• 26:59
  Speaker 9: third inning. Fouled off a ton of pitches. The announcers
• 27:01
  Speaker 9: we're talking about how he never hits the ball well
• 27:03
  Speaker 9: to left field. He waits on it. He drives that
• 27:06
  Speaker 9: ball off the left field wall, and then he hit
• 27:08
  Speaker 9: one off the right field wall later in the game,
• 27:10
  Speaker 9: one oh five point nine off the bat, And I
• 27:12
  Speaker 9: think he's beginning to realize that when he cuts back
• 27:14
  Speaker 9: on his swing and just makes contact, that he's got
• 27:18
  Speaker 9: the strength to do some damage. He's just so strong,
• 27:22
  Speaker 9: and I like how everybody who sees him has an
• 27:25
  Speaker 9: immediate opinion on why he can be better. Guys in
• 27:27
  Speaker 9: the booth tonight saying, oh, just back off the plate
• 27:29
  Speaker 9: six inches. You know, I'm sure the Yankees have looked
• 27:32
  Speaker 9: at every possible way to get this guy going, because
• 27:35
  Speaker 9: the athletic skills and the power is just so apparent.
• 27:39
  Speaker 9: I never thought he had a chance to become Aaron Judge,
• 27:42
  Speaker 9: and I still don't, but I do think he's got
• 27:44
  Speaker 9: a chance to become the good version of Joey Gallo,
• 27:47
  Speaker 9: a guy who hits like two thirty to forty at
• 27:49
  Speaker 9: least because he hits the ball so hard, with forty
• 27:52
  Speaker 9: plus home runs and outstanding defense on top of it.
• 27:55
  Speaker 9: He has really impressed me more than anybody this year.
• 27:58
  Speaker 9: He has been I mean, I shouldn't say impressed me
• 28:01
  Speaker 9: more than anybody. Obviously guys are having better years, but
• 28:04
  Speaker 9: from my expectations of him to what he's actually done,
• 28:08
  Speaker 9: he's he's been better than I thought. And Grisham presumably
• 28:12
  Speaker 9: beginning to heap back up. You wonder how the outfield
• 28:15
  Speaker 9: situation is gonna work when Bellinger's back. I'd have to
• 28:18
  Speaker 9: assume it's Grisham in center, Spencer Jones in right, and
• 28:23
  Speaker 9: Bellinger in left, and Ramos to the bench, and then
• 28:27
  Speaker 9: when Judge comes back, I guess you just play the
• 28:29
  Speaker 9: hot hand in center field. So we'll see how it
• 28:31
  Speaker 9: shakes out. But the Yankees win this one, Oh name Alter,
• 28:36
  Speaker 9: Yankees win. Yank. All right, I'm gonna give Grisham the belt,
• 28:48
  Speaker 9: but we're gonna do it by say don't let that
• 28:50
  Speaker 9: shit happen in center field again. You gotta catch that
• 28:54
  Speaker 9: baseball and whoops, here we go. All right, right, Tran
• 29:04
  Speaker 9: Grisham with a belt. One of the most two mustache
• 29:09
  Speaker 9: rides tonight. And you know what, if he starts hitting,
• 29:14
  Speaker 9: it's a really good thing for the Yankees because when
• 29:16
  Speaker 9: he gets hot, he's a guy who's got a short swing.
• 29:19
  Speaker 9: He gets hit. He gets hits in clutch situations, as
• 29:22
  Speaker 9: we saw today, and for him, that's six belts this year.
• 29:25
  Speaker 9: That's just this shows that he has, you know, the
• 29:27
  Speaker 9: difference making ability in the game. So nice job by
• 29:31
  Speaker 9: Trent Grisham.
• 29:33
  Speaker 6: This is that time of year, aj It is Baseball's
• 29:36

• 30:34
  Speaker 9: Well one, is it worth even talking about. I'd rather
• 30:39
  Speaker 9: almost get to voicemails. I mean four innings, six hits,
• 30:42
  Speaker 9: five runs, four walks, three strikeouts, not a good night
• 30:45
  Speaker 9: topped out at ninety five even mix of the fastball
• 30:48
  Speaker 9: and sinker, and he was just hitting way too many
• 30:51
  Speaker 9: bats tonight. As I said, less meatballs. Game breakdown, Yankee said,
• 30:58
  Speaker 9: thirteen hits tonight. That was good to see, two home runs,
• 31:05
  Speaker 9: three walks. They still struck out eight times. Uh, they
• 31:08
  Speaker 9: left five men on. As a team, they hit three
• 31:11
  Speaker 9: thirty three with runners in scoring position tonight three for
• 31:13
  Speaker 9: nine and the pitching struck out eight of their own
• 31:18
  Speaker 9: and got basically almost two thirds of their pitches were
• 31:21
  Speaker 9: strikes tonight sixty four percent. Spencer Jones hardest hit ball
• 31:23
  Speaker 9: to night one oh five point nine and Yerry de
• 31:26
  Speaker 9: Los Sansos with the top pitch velocity at ninety seven.
• 31:30
  Speaker 9: So we take a look at the division here. Yankees win,
• 31:35
  Speaker 9: Raise win, Blue Jays beat the Red Sox, and the
• 31:39
  Speaker 9: Twins beat the Orioles. So the Yankees remained six games
• 31:43
  Speaker 9: back in the American League East. They still lead the
• 31:45
  Speaker 9: wild card four games over the Boston Red Sox, and
• 31:51
  Speaker 9: tomorrow we will have the final game in this series.
• 31:54
  Speaker 9: Yankees have won the first two. They will go for
• 31:56
  Speaker 9: the sweep. It's gonna be Logan Gilbert versus Max Freed,
• 31:59
  Speaker 9: Max Free two point eight to eight ERA this season
• 32:02
  Speaker 9: and he looks like he's fully back. The last couple
• 32:04
  Speaker 9: of times out he's been really strong, and I feel
• 32:06
  Speaker 9: like he's gonna give us a chance tomorrow to wrap
• 32:09
  Speaker 9: things up with a sweep on a Thursday afternoon game.
• 32:16
  Speaker 9: Take a look at where we're at in the series
• 32:18
  Speaker 9: so far. Trent Grisham so far has been your top
• 32:22
  Speaker 9: win probability impact five for nine in the series, Spencer
• 32:28
  Speaker 9: Jones having a good series, McMahon having a good year
• 32:32
  Speaker 9: or a good series. Ryan Weathers had a much higher
• 32:35
  Speaker 9: game score than Will Warren fifty seven. Will Warren was
• 32:38
  Speaker 9: at twenty five. And as we take a look at
• 32:41
  Speaker 9: the home runs in this series for the Yankees, both
• 32:45
  Speaker 9: by Trent Grisham. First one was in the fifth inning tonight,
• 32:50
  Speaker 9: it went three hundred and sixty four feet and the
• 32:52
  Speaker 9: second one was really clobber three hundred ninety eight feet
• 32:55
  Speaker 9: one hundred and three off the bat. Okay, quick word
• 32:58
  Speaker 9: from our sponsor tonightxtend back to take a few voicemails.
• 33:04

• 33:06
  Speaker 6: you about why we love Quint's electrolytes, including watermelon salt,
• 33:09
  Speaker 6: raspberry salt, and I'm holding a citrus salt. Just opened
• 33:13
  Speaker 6: it and pour some powder into my water, shake it
• 33:16
  Speaker 6: up and AJ, why do you love it?
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: I love Quints because after a long night out, a
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: long day at the gym, a long walk in this
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: Florida humidity, it tastes great and it gives me all
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: the electrolytes I need. Why sugar free Stevy, a free
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: keto approve and taste sweet because of that delicious fermented rice.
• 33:35

  Speaker 9: So there were some streakers tonight. If the Yankees win
• 34:08
  Speaker 9: one more, they will be streaking. Made one two straight.
• 34:10
  Speaker 9: We'll see if they can make it three tomorrow. Here's
• 34:12
  Speaker 9: Brian Man.
• 34:13
  Speaker 10: We've been saying it for a while. Derek, right, play
• 34:16
  Speaker 10: the US. Let's see what these guys can do out there. Man,
• 34:20
  Speaker 10: give him a shot. Look at Jones out there, really
• 34:23
  Speaker 10: coming up big. Obviously, Lombard is just a stud. He's
• 34:27
  Speaker 10: gonna be said. He made that little error trying to
• 34:30
  Speaker 10: rush her play, but don't expect too many of those,
• 34:33
  Speaker 10: in my opinion. All in all, love love the way
• 34:37
  Speaker 10: the team actually was swinging the bats today. A lot
• 34:40
  Speaker 10: of people looking dangerous up there. Again, sometimes you put
• 34:44
  Speaker 10: these young guys in there and can just energize the
• 34:48
  Speaker 10: entire team. And it kind of looked like that tonight.
• 34:50
  Speaker 11: I don't know what do you think, all.
• 34:51
  Speaker 9: Right, appreciate the call. Yeah, I mean, young guys doing
• 34:55
  Speaker 9: the job. Tonight. You had multi hits for Spencer Jones
• 34:59
  Speaker 9: and George Lombard. They both look good. They're both improving.
• 35:03
  Speaker 9: Remember people were wondering wondering if Lombard could hit. Well.
• 35:06
  Speaker 9: I think he's proven that he can hit. We'll see
• 35:07
  Speaker 9: if the league adjusts, but right now he can hit.
• 35:09
  Speaker 11: Here's a call from Nashville, and from Nashville, here Tolf
• 35:12
  Speaker 11: of the eighth up, eight to five. It's time to
• 35:15
  Speaker 11: give them head and put them to bed.
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: Yo, Yankee, I like it.
• 35:24
  Speaker 6: There's Mary Beth, Oh, Derek, Mary Beth, and you're gonna
• 35:27
  Speaker 6: have such a good show tonight.
• 35:29
  Speaker 5: Let's call this a laugh for okay.
• 35:30
  Speaker 8: Ten runs, oh my god, and the kids.
• 35:34
  Speaker 9: Everybody's doing great.
• 35:35
  Speaker 12: It's the way.
• 35:37
  Speaker 11: It's like the old days.
• 35:40
  Speaker 12: I just love this and I think Boston's gonna lose,
• 35:42
  Speaker 12: so Yankees win.
• 35:44
  Speaker 5: This is a good night.
• 35:44
  Speaker 11: I look forward to your show.
• 35:46
  Speaker 5: Bye.
• 35:46
  Speaker 9: Appreciate the call, Mary Beth, great attitude. As always. Here's
• 35:50
  Speaker 9: Michael Yo.
• 35:51
  Speaker 12: Derek is McMichael from the Jersey Brother. Finally, the Yankees
• 35:55
  Speaker 12: are sticking together hit, They're putting together runs like It's
• 35:58
  Speaker 12: crazy how you can make how a team can make
• 36:01
  Speaker 12: you hate them and then just one inning can make
• 36:04
  Speaker 12: you fun in love with them all over again. Brother,
• 36:06
  Speaker 12: you just gotta love baseball, man. But this is the
• 36:08
  Speaker 12: type of baseball that we need to see. This is
• 36:10
  Speaker 12: the type of baseball that if we play this way,
• 36:13
  Speaker 12: we will be twenty and twenty six will city champions
• 36:16
  Speaker 12: with this pitching and hitting like that? Come on, by
• 36:19
  Speaker 12: the who can stop?
• 36:20
  Speaker 7: Let's go.
• 36:21
  Speaker 9: I love the optimism. I love the optimism. We'll see
• 36:24
  Speaker 9: I don't know. I want to see uh. I want
• 36:27
  Speaker 9: to see them do it more than one day out
• 36:29
  Speaker 9: of a week. You know, Let's let's see him sustain
• 36:31
  Speaker 9: this for a while.
• 36:31
  Speaker 11: Here's Louis Louis Preedifield here, it's been a while. I
• 36:35
  Speaker 11: got a question. Let's thot I'm watching uh this guy,
• 36:40
  Speaker 11: I bet.
• 36:42
  Speaker 7: The guy that came up the god the left handed
• 36:45
  Speaker 7: Aaron Judge, I forgot his name, Spencer Johnes. Anyway, do
• 36:48
  Speaker 7: you think he'd be's able to get into the home
• 36:51
  Speaker 7: run derby? Heel, if you take a crack at the
• 36:55
  Speaker 7: home run Derby, you think he wins will come up
• 36:57
  Speaker 7: on top.
• 36:57
  Speaker 11: I just I just thought about that.
• 36:59
  Speaker 9: I think you're a little premature. I mean, guy's got
• 37:02
  Speaker 9: five home runs as a rookie. I'm sure if he's
• 37:07
  Speaker 9: ever in a home run Derby, he's big and strong
• 37:10
  Speaker 9: enough that he could probably win it. But let's let's
• 37:14
  Speaker 9: cross that bridge when we get there. It's call about Garcia.
• 37:17
  Speaker 5: Hey, they're honestly. The way Garcia has been playing recently,
• 37:21
  Speaker 5: I feel that he's back to what some people were
• 37:24
  Speaker 5: talking about right before he played the first game with
• 37:26
  Speaker 5: us or they said they might use him as a
• 37:28
  Speaker 5: platoon when Stan comes back, and I understand I'm seeing
• 37:32
  Speaker 5: and now he's cooled off, not calling him a bad player.
• 37:35
  Speaker 5: I know he's still a great hitter. But I'm not
• 37:38
  Speaker 5: too worried about when Stang comes.
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: Back, like where they're going to play.
• 37:41
  Speaker 5: Especially the way he's playing right now. I think they'll
• 37:43
  Speaker 5: figure it out, which is completely fine. When he was high,
• 37:46
  Speaker 5: I think it was more of a conversation. But right now,
• 37:48
  Speaker 5: I think Stan is going to start at least versus
• 37:52
  Speaker 5: you know, his most dominant kind of pictures.
• 37:56
  Speaker 9: Did you guys see that John Carlos Stanton. There were
• 37:59
  Speaker 9: video of him on social media and he ran to
• 38:02
  Speaker 9: second base and he lived. He survived. But yes, Garcia,
• 38:07
  Speaker 9: I think we'll play against righty's, and I think Stanton
• 38:09
  Speaker 9: will play against lefties. I don't think you can play
• 38:13
  Speaker 9: Stanton every single day. I don't think you can do it.
• 38:16
  Speaker 9: And if he starts hitting, if he gets hot, then
• 38:18
  Speaker 9: maybe a give more backs against righty's. But we'll see
• 38:21
  Speaker 9: what they do in the postseason. That'll be interesting. Uh,
• 38:24
  Speaker 9: here's a call from Caden.
• 38:27
  Speaker 11: Hey, Derek, this is Caden from Tennessee Colin. I really
• 38:32
  Speaker 11: like what Ron McMahon's been doing for the Yankees, recently
• 38:36
  Speaker 11: started to pick it up. And number two, I know
• 38:40
  Speaker 11: it's early with in a Yankee stint that Elliott Ramos
• 38:45
  Speaker 11: does not fite what we needed. I was very excited
• 38:51
  Speaker 11: about seeing Henry uh Wellana, but we got this gun instead.
• 38:58
  Speaker 11: Oh boy, I thought Henry could have been really good
• 39:02
  Speaker 11: for us, But nope, we got Elliott.
• 39:08
  Speaker 9: That that that was the stages of grief call right there,
• 39:13
  Speaker 9: right now. Henry Lallane is at high A with the
• 39:17
  Speaker 9: Eugene Emeralds. He is this so far this season, He's
• 39:21
  Speaker 9: thrown twenty in the third innings, twenty two strikeouts, five walks,
• 39:24
  Speaker 9: two point sixty six erra. The problem with him is
• 39:26
  Speaker 9: that he has been hurt a lot. But he's six seven,
• 39:29
  Speaker 9: two hundred eleven pounds, has nasty stuff, good fastball, good slider,
• 39:33
  Speaker 9: and I think he's gonna be a stud if he
• 39:35
  Speaker 9: ever stays healthy. But Jesse Sam says, I don't care
• 39:39
  Speaker 9: about Stanton's legs. Got no legs, Lieutenant stan doesn't have legs.
• 39:44
  Speaker 9: One more time from John Sterling.
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: Game A Yankees wins.
• 39:52
  Speaker 9: Yankee all right, guys, I'm gonna call it a night.
• 39:57
  Speaker 9: Good night for the AANNGS ten runs. They answered our prayers.
• 40:01
  Speaker 9: They made us not stress so much there at the end.
• 40:03
  Speaker 9: Great job by the bullpen Trent Grisham with the belt,
• 40:07
  Speaker 9: couple of mustache rides. I'll catch you guys tomorrow afternoon game.
