Trade Deadline ambition rankings, Rangers acquire O’Hoppe & Silseth, Skubal’s final start as a Tiger? · Foul Territory

• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Hug Watch is on for one of the most dominant
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: players in our sport. This is video from yesterday's after
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: noon outing for Derek Spougel. Dominant successful gets removed teams
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: up seven zip. They lost. They were up seven zip
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: in the sevenths. By the way, it was a tie
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: game by the eighth, but the ovation was awesome here aj.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: It was also a day when he had his one
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: one thousand strikeout. That was when we were on and
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: then after we departed from our show at our usual time,
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: Tigers were the game. We've basically found out since like,
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: he's a lot to be traded, So there's a lot
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: going on in Detroit right now. That's why I'm wearing
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: Tiger territory shirt.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but I mean he also he also gave up three.
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: I mean the bullpen gave up three, so he you know,
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: it was a little bit on tarike. He pitched good,
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: but not great, but he you know, the bullpen came
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: in and put gas on the flame. But he did
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: pitch really well the first six innings. But you're you're up,
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: you know, like that in a big league game, you
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: should win that game, and they did not, And that
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: just sums up why they're going to trade them.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: Exactly. That was a big emotional swing Crats and actually
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: for the Orioles, they're like desperately trying to show their
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: front office that they still belong. So it was a
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: huge comeback win for them.
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: I think they've been playing a little bit better recently.
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: They're scoring a lot of runs. You know, probably a
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: little too late, too little too late, but yeah, I mean,
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: as much as you want Terry Scooble to get traded
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: or you don't want them to get traded, this game
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: swung it in whichever direction it was going to go.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, it was.
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: It was an awesome one and it was awesome though.
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: The ovation was really good. He got a thousand strikeout.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: They had the big sign in center field showing how
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: many strikeouts he had. But the fans are pretty awesome.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: The fans probably aren't going to be very happy today
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: when they wake up and.
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: They realize it more than likely Terror Scoobel is going
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: to be a Milwaukee brewery.
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: Let let them in. He came out and had a
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: meeting with him and he's like, right, you can get
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: one more hitter, And guy got a base hit up
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: the middle and then they took him out.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: The one thing I don't like is like, oh well,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: we're still gonna try. We'll get to it. I could
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: just mention it real quick right now. They're gonna call
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: it Max Clark this weekend. Great. I mean, I'm all
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: for calling up a guy if you feel like he's ready.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: The timing is definitely interesting. They claim that's not what
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: it is. Okay, Uh, either way, that's fine. Here's my question.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: If you're trading school, you should trade Casey Mice too. Right,
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: he's got a really nice year, Like, don't act like,
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: oh well, this is just because we have to get
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: something for Schooble, but we still think we can win
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: a World Series this year, Like trade your assets at
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: the deadline your short term has I.
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: Think he's sneaky underrated because he's always overshadowed by schoobl.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: You just the problem with Casey.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: He's been hurt a lot, and he's basically he's been
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: basically a five inning guy a lot of his career.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: I think that's the one thing you worry about with
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: Casey Miies if you're another team. Now, do I think
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: he can help a team one a million percent? He
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: could help a team. And the Max Clark thing getting
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: called up. I mean I looked at his numbers. Yeah
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: he's doing all right, he's doing okay, but I think
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: he's hot right now.
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: So they want to take advantage of that. And that's
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: just the way to make people say, oh, look the
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: Tigers are going to trade Google. But look what they
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: have coming in the future. Guys. They have Max Clark.
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: And Casey mice I mean, do you want Clay Holmes
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: just coming off an injury or Casey mice littered with injuries?
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, agreed, agreed. I'm not I'm not saying that you know,
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: either one is the right choice. It just depends on
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: what you want. But I mean, Casey mice Is had
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: a nice run here, but not you know, he's not
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: I don't think Casey mies Is. I don't mean this
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: anything against Casey Mace, but I don't think, uh, you know,
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: he's a he's an franchise altering guy.
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: Maybe he's not the right way to put it, but none.
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: But I think he fits. But I think he fits
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: into the realm of you know, you look at the
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: Phillies and you go, okay, they the fifth starter. Does
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: he become that fifth starter guy with maybe more of
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: an upside than say Michael Lorenz and if he was available,
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Like there.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: He fits in that, he fits up perfectly. He could
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: be a three for a lot of teams out there.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: He could be a three and start a playoffs, no
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: doubt for the Phillies. Not the Phillies because they have
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: the three big ones at the top, but I mean
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: for the for most teams, he's probably starting a playoff game.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: Casey would start a playoff game for many teams.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, although last year for Detroit they were like, one
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: time to the lineup, we got to get him out
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: if you remember so, yeah, it was like, oh, we
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: can't wait to get Casey's out of game.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: That's part of their style too though, right, Like they're
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: very tempted to go to their controlled chaos the Tigers,
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: which works. Does it works for a round or so?
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah? I mean.
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: I mean that the argument would be, well, the Tigers,
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: they had, Detroit, they had they had Scooble, but the
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: one series they won Scoobal did he lose two or
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: do you lose the first one? And then they ended
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: up still coming back.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: And yeah, they lost some starts.
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it wasn't. Yeah.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: But also let's not forget they had Schoobale in Game
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: five against the Mariners and didn't win that game, not
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: because of anything Schooble did. They lost the game because
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: they couldn't hit right, and they went fifteen innings and
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: couldn't score a run, and he struck out like thirty
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: times in that game. I forget, I don't have my
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: score sheet in front of me. But they lost because
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: they couldn't hit. It wasn't because schoobl did any wrong.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: You think he gained six innings with like one run
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: and left for the lead.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: But hey, their hitters are supposed to get better. It's
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: a year. They're a year older.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: They are a year older. Every time year older, you
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: should be better. Just general thought in life. Also, AJ's
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: still broadcasting that game. But yes, it was not Schooble's fault.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: It was on game.
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: It was a game so many twisting turns in that game.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: It's still one of my favorite broadcasts to you guys
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: were great. All right, let's charge.
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: Let's charge that.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: We do have one little eddy bitty trade. The Angels
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: send Logan o'hapy and Chase still Seth over to the
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: Texas Rangers. Ohapi immediately gets optioned. He's had a tough year,
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: Sylph Seth has been pretty good in the bullpen. It's
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: got multiple years of control. Let me bring one interesting
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: part into the equation, because I think we all respect
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: him greatly for his overall baseball knowledge and for his
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: prospect knowledge. So JJ Cooper has been tweeting about this
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: trade confused. That's not a good sign when one of
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: the most renowned prospect experts in the sport is going
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: out on a limb to be like the one player
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: they got in return on hell Aridondo. And this is
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: no slide on him. I don't know him. Did not
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: rank in the Rangers top thirty according to Baseball America
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: at the time of the trade. Sometimes, when the trade happens,
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: this is JJ's quote, you check with sources to make
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: sure you don't miss something on a guy who should
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: have been ranked. We've checked. This does not appear to
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: be one of those times. A J Does that mean
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: Aridando might not be a big league contributor. No, but
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: generally the industry looks at prospects in at least a
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: close enough realm to be like, oh, I could see
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: somebody liking this guy when JJ goes out and on
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: limb like that. It's a little bit questionable given the
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: history of the Angels with Trades.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I just I mean, I don't know what this was.
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: This doesn't make sense from in the division. I mean, okay,
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: you want to get rid of Ohapi, fine, but the
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: Silsith one, he's having a pretty good year and he's young,
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: So I don't know. I don't understand unless John mozelok
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: is just saying, hey, we're gonna get rid of everybody
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: because we have stunk for so long and maybe finally
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: Artie Marino has allowed it. But I don't understand it
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: from that side of if you're going to give away
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: one of your guys that's been pretty decent for you,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna look, I have to re look at Silsa's numbers,
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: but they're pretty good. It's not like this is a
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: walk piece, but uh, a few too many walks as
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: far as a guy.
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: But his other numbers are really good. Other numbers are
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: really good.
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: I mean he's got a two seven to two with
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: a you know, forty eight strikeouts, some thirty nine innings.
• 8:02
  Speaker 4: I mean that's pretty good. I mean the twenty two
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: walks you can live with. But I mean he's he's
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: pretty good to give away and he's got years of control.
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: That's the thing that gets.
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: Me, don't.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: I don't.
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: I don't totally get it. And I'm not a big
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: like top thirty for the organization, like let's pump the
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: brakes like we're if we're doing top thirty for an organization,
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: we're ranking the nine hundred players in the minor leagues
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: like each team. You just it's okay if it's not.
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: But he's not even in the top thirty, the guy
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: they're getting back. It's weird because you look at bullpen
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: pieces and I would say still says probably that like
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: third tier down available, but still you would think you'd
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: get a little bit more. And it's been a tough,
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: tough road to hoe for Logan o hoppy and for
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: a guy that works really hard, you want to see him,
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: you want to see him bounce back. And it gives
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: the Ranges a little bit of depth because he got
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: Fioka's out and now they're going with Elias Diaz and.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: Jensen and him. Jansen has been out too. They don't
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: know if he's come out correct.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So the Rangers are going to do some things
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: as they should. They've had a nice little stretch lately.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: They're involved. They're recognizing an opportunity here too. AJ So
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: they won the World Series in twenty twenty three, right,
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: twenty four and twenty five they couldn't hit. They still
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: did try at each trade deadline. They tried to push
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: a little bit this offseason with a acquisition like Mackenzie Gore. Right,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: and still the team looks kind of similar to the
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: past couple of years, like they look okay, not great,
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: but they're still going to add and wait. The difference
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: this year is the division kind of sucks.
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: Kind of sucks. It doesn't suck, It doesn't kind of suck.
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: It just sucks.
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: We don't need to sugarcoat that the division sucks. And
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: what's amazing is the Astros. As much as we've talked
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: and said, oh the Astros stink this year, I think
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: they're a game out of first place or something crazy, right,
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: because the Mariners a team we all thought every I
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: mean pretty much everybody was a consensus across baseball. Ah,
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: the Mariners are going to be the best team in
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: that division, they're gonna win it going away. Well, they
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: have completely failed to capitalize on this division. And there's
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: where you look at. I mean, the Astros a five
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: hundred or one game out and the Mariners just that's
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: future for the team that we thought they would have.
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: Right So I think that's it.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: The Rangers are saying, Hey, if we can get in
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: and we have a Valdi to Grom, we can figure
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: out Mackenzie Gore, get a couple of bullpen pieces, we
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: get Seeger Langford and young Back swinging it, we have
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: a chance to.
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: Maybe do some damage in the American League. Again, that sucks.
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: The American League is not very good.
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: They're starting to swing in a little bit better. They're
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: starting to swing in a little bit better at home.
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: They've had they've had a few games where they scored
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: a few more runs at home. And you know what,
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: See Why tries to make moves where he can. He
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: doesn't like he doesn't like that they're not running away
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: with the division, But he does not like missing out
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: in the playoffs by one game either, because he knows
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: anything can happen in the playoffs, which I think is
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: an advantage. I think some teams are like in the
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: playoffs are a crap shoot, and I think players go
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: anything can happen.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: But by the way, you know, you said they're swinging
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: the bat better at home. Do something for me and
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: look at the numbers at Home Ballpark of the Rangers.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: It started out as extreme hitting ballpark. Now it's actually
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: turned into I mean, sorry, extreme pitching ballpark. Now it's
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: actually turned into almost a hitters ballpark. It's weird over
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: the last couple of months. I don't know if they've
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: just started hitting better or what, but it is crazy
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: if you look at the numbers.
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: Hmmm, that's weird. You mean like a ball could travel
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: differently at the same exact ballpark that is controlled climate,
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: except you can control how balls travel.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: Wait, are we talking white baseball or brown baseball? Which baseball?
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: Yellow? Yellow? Sorry, yellow has nothing to do with it.
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: Don't don't look. Don't look now. Humid door sometimes gets
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: turned off in Atlanta, and they have the two longest
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: home runs on the on the season in Atlanta. But
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: don't don't, don't worry about that. Doesn't happen, doesn't it
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: doesn't matter.
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: Just watch the game, don't watch anything else. No conspiracy
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: theories pease. Okay, let's show Alden Gonzalez tweets to finish
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: up what we think the Angels will do the rest
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: of the way here, Alden said. In recent weeks, rival
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: execus have said dealing with the Angels front office has
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: been completely different for one reason. They listen, they're open,
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: they talk about controllable players. I'm adding this part like
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: Jase Silsuth. Here's the next tweet from Alden. We'll know
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: far more about their direction based on what they do
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: with the likes of Redebt Meers, Jose Soriano, and Zach Netto.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: But it seems Ardi moreno is letting John mozaylac Duty
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: thinks his best and that in itself would be a shift. Okay,
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: that's good. It's a good sign. This team never trades
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: to the guys at the right time. Aja, It's not
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: just making bad trades, which this one was questioned for
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: the prospect return. How about just making the trades at all,
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: versus holding your guys and never giving your chance self
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: a chance to actually reload. Like look at the Mets, right,
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: the Mets spend a ton of money. They freaking stink
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: this year they're going to trade like ten guys. Why
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: because they're not in it and you got to reload
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: and get prospects when you're not going to win this
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: year and it's very clear cut zero percent chance of
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: making the playoffs. Angels have not done that in the
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: past consistently. Maybe they do.
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: They always hold on to guys.
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: I mean we can start with Chowhy, right, but if
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: we say forever they should have traded Show, Hey, they
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: should have traded Trout, but obviously Trout can't be traded.
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: But they This has been the thing.
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: Arty Moreno has always said, oh, no, we're not going
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: to trade anybody because we're so close to being good,
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: except they haven't been good for ever.
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but this is like Hardy Moreno has been the
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: one that's been like, hey, no, no, no, no, we're not
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: going to but at least they're listening. Like the listening part.
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: If you've never listened before on players, how would you
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: ever know like where you're at, how would you ever
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: know if you're getting the right or if you're evaluating
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: your guys the correct way? To me, I think it's
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: something that that's a huge that's a huge shift. Maybe
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: now that it's all been tweeted that out maybe argument
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: Raindom was like, wait a minute, what's Moe doing? What's
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: John Mozeylog doing? Like does he know that we're still
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: trying to put butts in seats? And I don't look
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: ahead very well in the future.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: Mo's got dirting his spikes. He can talk back in
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: a way that I'm sure perim Nation couldn't. That's a fact, right,
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: Perry's take first time on a job like that, Mos Like,
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: I've done this for a long time, I've won. He
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: can probably bite a little bit harder on a phone
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: call or is it mom Jolly? Either way, whatever it is,
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's huge. Now can talk back a little
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: bit differently, right, And they also have to. I mean,
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: if they want Mezaylak to be part of this long
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: term and think he's going to be helpful, then you're
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: on the clock on this side too. If you just
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: say they want to, I don't know what they do. Well,
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: they wanted him to be here, so I'm saying, aj,
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: if they do that, they're they're going to be nice
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: to him and say, all right, we're open to hearing
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: what you have to say.
• 15:15
  Speaker 4: Oh, I agree, but I just don't know that they want.
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: I mean I haven't heard that they you know, I mean,
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: Mozaillack might not want that either. So if you really
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: want him to be you have to be nice to
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: them in order for him not only if they want them,
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: but they have to he has to want to stay,
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: because when I talked to Mosaellic last time, he was like,
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: I don't even know if I want It's like I
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: want to take some time off, and then I look
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: up and whammy, he's with the Angels again.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: His version of time off is not the same as
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: our version of time off.
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: That's time off, that's time off. Mike grizz I was like, yeah,
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: you know, I'm kind of ready to get back in
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: a little bit. Maybe it's too much time off for
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: different guys, but like Artie's gonna want guys that are
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: up in the up in the big leagues because he's
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: not gonna want to put the money into the minor
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: league system. Now, Mo allowed the Cardinals Minor LA system
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: to kind of get behind in the times, so maybe
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: Moe's pitch too. Artie was, I don't need to put
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: money into the minor league system because I know, like
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: I said, plenty of times on here, I know somebody
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: that already wanted to hire, and his reasoning was the
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: guy that he wanted to hire said, okay, I'll do it,
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: but we have to do this in the minor leagues
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: to truly make a winner, truly make an organization. And
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: Alarty said, no, thanks, you're not my guy.
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: We'll see what they do. A few days to go
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: until the trade deadline, Halo territory is all over what
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: the Angels will be doing and if there are significant
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: assets that they're going to actually trade away and your
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: team ends up with them, it's worth a listen to
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: get their thoughts on what someone like Read Detmers or
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: Jose Soriano or Zach Netto can bring to the table.
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: Subscribe to it wherever you get your pods on the
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: listening side and right here on YouTube, and we are
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: talking about see geek and games to keep an eye on.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: Over the next few days, I'll kind of mix in
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: what's going on in the news in terms of guys
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: coming back, guys getting hurt Edwin Diaz was activated yesterday
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: and picked up a save, gave up a run, but
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: did the job. Snell's supposed to be back next week
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: if you want to target a start like that. If
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: you're a Dodger fan. Keith Hernandez was just activated, So
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Dodgers have some activity going here right now. Aj if
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: you miss Kik dancing, or if you want to see
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: the trumpets in the ninth, now's the time to go
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: to Sea Gek and go get yourself a ticket for
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: a Dodger game.
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Dodgers are always a hot ticket, you know. It
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: just depends on what you're looking for. You look at
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: the list tonight, there's there's a lot of good day games.
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: Not a ton of good night games tonight, though, Scotti.
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: So you're gonna have to really look in. But you
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: mentioned the Dodgers, and for me, Brian Woo first rookie Sazaki,
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: Brian Woo need to step it up on the road.
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: Look at his road splits. They are awful. He has
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: the biggest split between home and road in the history
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: of Major League Baseball. It's like a four and a
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: half run er difference in home and road. Now they
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: can't figure it out. No one can figure it out.
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: This guy is too good to not be good on
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: the road.
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: So if you're a Dodger fan, you want to see
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: possibly some run score and you get to see Roki
• 18:15
  Speaker 4: Pitch go to La tonight.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good one. Robbie Ray probably making his
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: last start for the Giants tonight, he'll be in San Diego.
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: And then I don't usually vote for this, but actually
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: I would grab a ticket off Seakeeek in Sacramento to
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: watch Sonny Gray against his former team DA's. And I
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: just want to see what the Red Sox app cooking
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: right now, Kratz, because they've they've got the sauce suddenly.
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: You definitely, you definitely want to see the game. You
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: just don't want to see it in Sacramento, but you
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: can get it at Sea Geek. I'm waiting till tomorrow.
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna look ahead. The Yankees are in Chicago at
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: a day game. Like I know how much AJ loves
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: day games in Chicago. You get to see the Yankees
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: in Wrigley Field. That's the marquee. Maybe we don't have
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: anything today, but tomorrow that's where I'm going.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: Yep. And for many people listening, yeah, that's one to
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: look at as at home.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: And then I don't need to buy a ticket to
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: that one. I'll be there Saturday for free day.
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: It's close to the Yeah, it's a six o'clock game,
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: which is great. Get there tomorrow, have a nice dinner, get.
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: Up on Saturday, get a little walk in around the lake,
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: a little workout, and then go over and watch Yankees Cubs,
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: watch Adam I mean DJ after the game, and really
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: if you drag Ken there and then fly home Sunday,
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: pretty good weekend.
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: Love the north Side, I.
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: Do nothing says I love you like the Me and
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: the north Side.
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: That's a hot ticket lady. You know what to do
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: if you want ten percent off MLB tickets. If you're
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: hopping into Sea Geek for the first time, territory ten
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: get you that ten percent off code, or I should
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: say link in the description of the episode. We'll give
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: you that code automatically into your account so you can
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: use it later. By the way, real quick, Byron Buxton
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: back to the il too, just mixing in some news
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: as we got it that in the past whatever twelve
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: hours popped up there. It is right hip and pingement.
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: You know, he's he's kind of shut down right now.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: Not great.
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's always it always seems like with Byron,
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: as good as he is, It's like, when is he
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: going to get hurt again? And unfortunately it was a
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: couple of days ago. I think he was trying to
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: steal a base and hurt his hip and is.
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: Out now in the IL.
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: That really hurts the Twins because they're I mean, I
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: know we kind of make fun of them, but.
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: They're actually alive in this race just because the rest
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: of the America League is so bad.
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, does this signal them selling a little bit? Not
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: like they're in it?
• 20:35
  Speaker 4: They're in it.
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: They're in it. I get it, I get it. That's
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: their Aaron Judge does it? Does it signal doesn't say Okay,
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: we're fine getting rid of Ryan Jeffers Or is it
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: saying no, now we can't get rid of anybody.
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: I think they were always getting rid of Brian Jeffers,
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: but that they're holding onto you know, anything else, even
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: anything else, I would say probably short term like it
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: just they think they can win without Jeffers. I mean,
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: he did miss a chunk of this season and they
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: were still hitting without him. But this is more of
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: a narrative with the city, like they just they can't
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: start trading the long term assets away right now or
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: even a shorter term asset like a Joe Ryan is interesting,
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: Like I know he's not pitching as well lately, but
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: it doesn't sound like he's going to get moved. All right,
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: let's do this ranking each team's trade deadline activity in
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: what it says about their ambitions in twenty twenty six
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: and beyond the athletic put out tiers. Let's run through
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: the tiers. Shall we? Tier one World Series or Bust.
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: It's the team that won back to back World Series titles.
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: I love when I start talking and Crats shakes his head.
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: I'm not even being sarcastic. Krats look disappointed. It's the Dodgers.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: Why are you shaking your head?
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: Because I'm disappointed that there's really truly only one team
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: that's in this mode.
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: Do you feel like that though? Do you feel like
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: they're the only team that should be there? So let's
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: go to tier two here.
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: Where we have no no that I agree with it. Now,
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: I'm not saying I disagree with it. I'm saying, oh,
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: I disagree. Teams should be more in World Series or
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: Bust mode. There should be more like this is your chance.
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: This is why some teams don't ever win because they're
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: not truly in the World Series or bust mode. The
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: Dodgers have been built for the last ten years to
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: be in World Series or bust. The Yankees used to
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: be a team that were World Series or busts, or
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: they're just not pleased with anything that's the World Series.
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: I think more teams should be But we can continue.
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: In the article, they said they would have put the
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: Yankees in Tier one if they had more clarity on
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: Aaron Judge's status, but they instead put them in Tier two.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: The Brewers are in Tier two, The Rays are in
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: Tier two. The Braves are in Tier two. By the way,
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: for the Braves, it's been coming out. It looks like
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: Strider might not pitch the rest of the year. Smith
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: Shober just came back. But man, that's a tough one
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: for Atlanta. They're gonna have to do some work. I
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: know they've got guys coming back here, but try and
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: get a big boy, get a horse. I digress, aj,
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: I mean this is still a good list containing sustainable.
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but contending sustainably. I don't care. The Brewers and
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: the Rays. Have they ever won a World Series?
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: God?
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: No, no, you know what it should be World Series
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: or bust.
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: This is your chance. You have mis you hopefully get
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: Harrison back. You have your team that can play a
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: little bit different style of baseball. You got your asses
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: beat by the Dodgers last year in the playoffs, you
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: got swept. You're all happy we finally won a playoff series,
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: first time since twenty eighteen. Nobody cares. You gotta win
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: a World Series. And for the Rays, yes they've been
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: to the World Series. Yes you've had chances, they.
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: Haven't won one.
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: New ownership, hopefully a new stadium. You know what, it'll
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: get a new stadium approved Tampa Bay, a World Series championship.
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: So go out and do whatever you have to do
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: to make it happen. I'm sorry, I hate this. Oh
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: we want to be sustainable. How about you win a
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: World Series first, and then you become sustainable. And oh yeah,
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: by the way, the Yankees having one since twenty nineteen
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: or sorry, excuse me, two thousand and nine, that's a
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: long time in Yankee Land. That's almost getting to the
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: point of unacceptable. So sustainable, Go win a World Series,
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: get Aaron Judges World Series, right, So get to that
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: point and then you can be sustainable. It Braves just
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: one not that long ago. So there you got a
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: little bit more leash. These other teams haven't won some
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: of them ever.
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: Show a team that pushed all Show me a team
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: that pushed all in, and show me the next five years.
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: We're so we're so ingrained to be like, you know what,
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: there's a five year rebuild and then it's like, oh,
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: we're so afraid of the reverse. You push all in,
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: and then it's going to be another five year rebuild.
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: No it's not. You choose to make it a five
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: year rebuild. Show me what's going to happen. Show me
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: what happened after two thousand and nine because of the
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: CC Sabbathia trade. Michael Brantley was going to keep the
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: Brewers afloat in two thousand and nine, ten eleven, twelve,
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: so they chose to get rid of guys.
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: He was throwing.
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: Is what he was.
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: The throw in too. He wasn't even the main peak like.
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: He was one that was Lamora. I played against him,
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: I played against him.
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: Jason Donald. No, Jason Donald wasn't on that he was.
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: They were worried about trading Laporta, and they did it,
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: and how did it go Laporta.
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: Was the one.
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: So that's what I mean when people bring this up.
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: Because I just spent a weekend Thursday, Friday, Saturday in Milwaukee.
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: Everybody from the people working for the Brewers to people
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: working at the air to fans in the stadium. What
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: do I kept asking, what do you think the Brewers need?
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: And they're like, I don't know. I just want a
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: World Series. I want them to want the World Series
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: as badly as we do. And I think it is
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: it's time. They've experienced the playoffs, Nido gang. That community's
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: gonna come out and support this baseball team no matter
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: what happens. They've built this sustainability. It's time to push
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: and to be remembered forever that eighty two team that
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: went to the World Series, like they're remembered forever. Shoot,
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: I've played for four months for a team twenty five
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: year reunion. They invited me back like, and we got
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: close to making it to the World Series. If you
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: win a World Series, it will change. It will change
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: the landscape of Brewers fandom, and I think the franchise.
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: I think this part for clarity is important. You know,
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: some fans have been trained to look at their teams
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: like a portfolio, and the Brewers are a perfect case
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: of a team that's done a brilliant job of building
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: a great baseball team in the regular season, but also
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: one of the best farm systems in the sport. If
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: you pluck a few away from their top fifteen, they're
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: going to be okay. Also, save your comment about Jesus Made.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: It does not require a Jesus Made to get even
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: a Terek schoobl That is a fact. You can get
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: past Hazeus Made. They're not trading him. That's their best prospect.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: He's in some world's the number one prospect in the
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: sport right now. You don't need to do that, So
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: save that comment saying we're not trading moday. I'm good.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: I'm with you. But there's plenty left in the cupboard
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: for them to trade to pull this off. And if anything,
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: there's a little bit of a logjam there, which is
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: a great problem. It's the perfect time to make this trade.
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: AJ smashed the Orioles for a few years for holding, holding, holding,
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: and then they kind of missed the window. And I
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: know you have two crats, so don't do that. I
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: think they will do more. I think they learned from
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: last year, like, oh wow, we ended up with the
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: best record in baseball. We knew we were going to
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: end up well, we didn't realize we were going to
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: end up that well. And if you look back, they
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: did essentially nothing at the deadline. All right, So let's
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: get to the tier three. Can we make noise in October?
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: That includes the Phillies, the Cubs, the Red Sox, the Guardians,
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: and the Mariners. They specifically point out a team like
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: the Phillies for the age crats of some of their
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: players and how there's more sense of urgency and we've
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: talked about that for years and there should be more
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: of a sense of urgency for a team like that.
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: They actually pointed out the Cubs for their age too
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: with some of their players. I'm not as worried about
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: the Cubs, you know, looking at players getting past their
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: prime yet. But then they said for Cleveland it's always
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: the same story. They need offense, and they said, yes,
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: the Mariners in Red Sox. If you look at those
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: two teams before the season started and you fell asleep
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: and then you wake up right now, you'd be like,
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: oh man, that's not great. But they still think that
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: those two teams can rise through the noise, and in
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: order to do that they need to supplement their roster.
• 29:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Phillies, yes, Phillies. It should be World Series or Bus.
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: Sorry, sorry crats, it should be it should be I
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: mean yes. The Red Sox every year used to be
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: World Series or Bus until they won all those World Series.
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: Now it's like, oh, well, we need to spend money
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: in Liverpool and the soccer team, and.
• 29:22
  Speaker 4: We need to have the lebron James make money over
• 29:26
  Speaker 4: and wherever he's.
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: Playing in Philadelphia. Right, The Guardians are not going to
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: do it. We all know that the Mariners are the
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: interesting one. The ownership will probably won't let Jerry Depoto
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: do it. The Cubs have all the resources in the world.
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: It should be World Series or Bus for them every year.
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: I don't know, can we make noise in October?
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: That's what's funny.
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: The Cubs, because they won in twenty sixteen, ten years ago,
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: are like, oh, we won ten years ago. We have
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: ninety eight years until we have to worry about winning
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: or whatever it is, right, because we just won ten
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: years ago. But they should be World Series or Bus
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: because they have the resources. They are the Chicago Cubs.
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: They have Wrigley they have wrigley Ville, they have all
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: the stuff that comes with it.
• 29:59
  Speaker 4: They have the hotel the other teams stay in, so
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: other teams pay.
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: Them to stay in a hotel that they own, right,
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: So I mean where we hung up here, Cubs, Like
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: that's the thing. Like there are some teams on this
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: list that And by the way, I said that about
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: the Rays and the Brewers. You know what those teams
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: have over the Mariners. They've been to a World Series.
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: The Mirrors have never even been to a World Series.
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: Hmm.
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: But it's not bust. It's not it's it's not World
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: Series or bust. Don't worry about it. Nope, We're gonna
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: definitely create because we have Kate Anderson comany and we're
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: going to create five more starting pitchers and not add
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: to this team. I think the Mariners of people on
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: this list, I think the Mariners have done. They did,
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: they did their heavy lifting in the offseason. Now it's
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: time for the players to go. I think the Red
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: Sox we're like, you know what, we think pitching is
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: gonna get the job done. I think the Cubs have
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: built their team on defense. I think the Phillies are
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: the one on this list. I think it's a clear
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: delineation that it is now. The Red Sox will be around,
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: the Guardians will always can you to surprise people and
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: make a run because they have Jose Ramirez, and I
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: think the Mariners do create pitching. But the Phillies, it's now.
• 31:08
  Speaker 3: The Phillies is now now. Could they win it again
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: next year? Absolutely? Are they gonna need to make an adjustment? Absolutely,
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: I don't. You don't create the worst ops plus from
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: an outfield corps and expect, hey, you know what we're
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: gonna We're gonna just we're gonna be fine. You don't
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: have two guys with over an eight hundred ops going
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: into the month of August and say, eh, we're fine.
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: There has to be a big change, and I have.
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: I'm really surprised that the hitting coach is still around
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: because it's the same things over and over again. And
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: I don't know that the answer in the lineup is
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: out there at the trade deadline because they don't have
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: enough pieces to add to it. So they're very intriguing
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: team in that sense.
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they're going to do things, but it's not easy
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: right now to find the offense that you're looking for.
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: Some years it is some years are like, oh that
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: player went for that. It's it seems a little bit
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: more difficult, especially righty hitting. Some teams that are looking
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: for a right handed bat are going to have to
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: just say, you know what, it's got to be a
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: left handed bat. We'll have a little less balance in
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: the lineup. But there's just not enough out there. There
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: just is not enough there right now in terms of
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: right handed pop.
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: That's a hoping and you're hoping your hope. You're gonna
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: they're gonna bring somebody in for the Phillies because they
• 32:28
  Speaker 3: don't have enough in the minor league system. You're going
• 32:32
  Speaker 3: to hope that person does well. You bring in a
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: Dalton Varshow, I hope he does well like he had.
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: He had some really good spurts last year. He hasn't
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: done well this year. Maybe water levels out, you know.
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: I think that's the positive spin they'll put on it.
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: But again, it's another lefty. He punches out a little bit,
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: he runs the bases better than some of the guys.
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: So there's there's positives, but it's not this Byron Buxton,
• 32:55
  Speaker 3: Mike Trout type of move.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah. One thing I want to be clear about this
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: isn't like a call, oh, this team should spend money.
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: It's just you should do things at the trade deadline
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: that are painful in order to improve your team. That's
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: what it is. You sure you're going to take on
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: the money of a player coming through, but it's the
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: last two months of their salary. It's more about actually
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: trading away prospects and not prospect hugging. And also it's
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: there's a delineation with who you value as your top
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: guys and then not being concerned about every single prospect, right, Like, hey,
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: these are the two or three we have circled, but
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: the team can choose from these other seven or eight
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: in our top ten that you can't.
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: I looked at it more from the fans point of view.
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: What are the fans? How are the fans reacting to this?
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: Like this is this is you know the athletics, what
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: there says about their ambitions.
• 33:44
  Speaker 4: But let's talk I'm talking about the fans. What the
• 33:46
  Speaker 4: fans think? Right?
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: These are the teams that we talked about that said
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: should be all in. Are teams that have fans that
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: want to win their rabbit.
• 33:53
  Speaker 4: I mean Listen. You say what you want about.
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: The Rays in their fan base, but they have a
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: good fan base. It's like Oakland's old base. They have
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: ten to fifteen thousand that are pretty solid. Okay, But
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: then you get to Cleveland, who we know comes out
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: in the postseason. Right, you get to Seattle they pack
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: it every year, right, I mean these are teams the
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: Brewers they pack every game. So these are fan bases
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: that want and need to win. And then we can
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: obviously bring up the Yankees. Yankees fans are so used
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: to winning. It's almost been twenty years since they won
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: that we're talking, you know, the eighties the for the Yankees,
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: right when they didn't win for all those years.
• 34:27
  Speaker 4: We're back in the middle of it again.
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: What about Tier four? The title is is this really
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: worth it? And two of the teams they pointed out
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: in the article were the Twins and the Pirates, And
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: my answer to the Pirates, a Jay is a resounding yes,
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: this is worth it. If you make it to the postseason,
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: it's a win. Agrees.
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: Yes, I mean the Rangers just won, so, I mean
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: they're a little bit different. But Padres again never won
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: a World Series, right, Astros they've won. Fine, they can
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: do without. The Tigers have it won since eighty four?
• 35:03
  Speaker 4: Right? The Blue Jays, they're not.
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: Doing anything this year. The Dvacs, I don't know if
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: they have enough to win the World Series. But a
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: team like the Pirates, are you kidding me?
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: Yes?
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: They haven't been to the postseason in so long, and
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: all we heard about is how miserable it is there. Well,
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: they have a chance to get in.
• 35:18
  Speaker 4: You go for it. I'm sorry, you go for it.
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: I think on this list, I think they're the one
• 35:24
  Speaker 3: team that has the least but most glaring hole to fill.
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: I think if you face you talk about getting to
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: the postseason, awesome story. Great, if the Pirates make it,
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: they'll show up in all black. But you start Game
• 35:39
  Speaker 3: one with Paul Skeins, Braxton, Ashgraft, Mitch Keller, Okay, you're set.
• 35:43
  Speaker 3: They improve this offense. Whether people believed it was gonna
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: happen or not, this offense is the real deal. Brian
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: Reynolds doesn't have to carry the load as Merlin Valdez
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: is hitting dangers. He is like a thousand ops right now.
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: They have Brandon Lao, Ryan o'hearne. They have pieces in
• 36:03
  Speaker 3: that lineup. To me, this is when they push push,
• 36:07
  Speaker 3: push push with somebody to be able to anchor two
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: somebody's maybe even a third somebody to anchor that bullpen.
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we've said this since our show existed. Sometimes the
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: teams like, ah, we're good, but we're one year away,
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: and then that next year two of your starters go
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: down and then you're.
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: Like Orioles the first year, the Aadlie Rutchman and the
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: and the Pirates. This could happen for the Pirates. The
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: reason it could happen for the Pirates is because what
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: is the cheapest out of all those three categories, the
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: cheapest player to acquire. I mean even if a guys
• 36:48
  Speaker 3: making four million dollars, you're paying for a third of
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: the four million dollars. You know what. We can handle this.
• 36:55
  Speaker 3: So this is where they need to strike. They need
• 36:58
  Speaker 3: to strike and they need to get two or three
• 37:01
  Speaker 3: pieces to put in that bullpen.
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: Uh, the last tier we should show. The other ones
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: are not in it. So the last tier we should
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: show is tier five where this one might hurt Jay
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: a little bit, but it's really fun. It's talking about
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: how you're in it. But maybe wouldn't mind dropping some
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: games to make it an easier decision, right, Like Cardinals
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: have dropped off a little bit. Nuts are still pretty
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: in the mix. I mean, these teams are all in
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: the mix like they are.
• 37:31
  Speaker 4: That's aren't going for it. We can eliminate them.
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: We know the Marlins aren't going to do anything, like
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: why are they even on this list? They're in the
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: We don't want to pay anybody.
• 37:39
  Speaker 4: A dollar range. Right, So the Heat we know dain
• 37:42
  Speaker 4: in the one. The one is twenty. The White Sox.
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: All I've heard is the White Sox are going to
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: do this and do that. Jim Boden said it yesterday.
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: Bob Nightingale doesn't believe it, but I believe they're going
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: to do something. It might be smaller moves, but they
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: can win this division. It's a winnable division. And for
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: a team that lost one hundred games in a row,
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying World Series or bust, but they should
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: be in the Is it worth it or not? One
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: million percent? It's worth it because your fan base has
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: been showing out. Check out the numbers of the fans
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: that have been at the Yankees game, and since they've
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: been in first place, the people of Chicago are getting
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: behind this team. They like this team, they think this
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: team is fun to watch. Add to it and make
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: it better and take your shot.
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: And it's the we know where your early category. By
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: the way, for Tier five And the case which they
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: defended in this article is that the White Sox should
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: be in Tier four, and I agree. They said they
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: won't put them in until they show that they actually
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: will act like a contender at a trade deadline to me.
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: But to me, aren't the White Sox in the same
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: range as the Pirates where they're both around the same
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: chance of making the playoffs and should be adding so
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: that they can at least get themselves back into the
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: mix there? Or you think the Pirates are kind of
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: like does a team like that belong one tier up?
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: Or don't they belong in a similar tier? I know
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: it's been much longer since the Pirates make the playoffs, but.
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: You to me, yes, I understand what you're saying, But
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: to me, the differences The Pirates are in a tougher
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: national league, okay, and you got to face the Dodgers,
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: the Phillies, the Braves, the Brewers, the Cubs.
• 39:14
  Speaker 4: Okay, fine, Now can you win the World Series.
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: If you run skiens in Ashcraft and Keller and Bubba
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: Chandler figures out and you get some bullpen help. I
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: don't know, but you have a pretty good chance. The
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: thing about the White Sox is the American League is down.
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: We keep saying it over and over again. You get
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: in and listen. Sean Burke has been really good. Davis
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: Martin will figure it out.
• 39:31
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: They have some offense in Marcami and Antonaci and both
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: Montgomery boys.
• 39:37
  Speaker 4: They need to find a catcher.
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: That's the thing for me. If Kyle Tie, we don't
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: know when he's coming back. Edgar Kiro not the answer.
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: Tony Romo, I know his name's not Tony Romo. Drew
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: Romo not the answer right as a long term everyday guy.
• 39:49
  Speaker 4: What's a hut?
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: Tony Roma was in some trouble.
• 39:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he's fine, that'll be fine. I'll figure.
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: I mean, I love when he said in my in
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: trouble and they get the officer said turn around and
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: he's like, oops, I guess, which was pretty funny.
• 40:01
  Speaker 4: Here he goes, did I pass? But we don't need
• 40:03
  Speaker 4: to get into that. Yeah, but I mean I'm sorry, Like,
• 40:07
  Speaker 4: and you need a starting you need a starting pitcher.
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: I think they've kind of figured out the back end
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: the White Sox with Taylor and some of the other guys.
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: They run out and god, Sir, Anthony Domingo's out of
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: the ninth inning rule. But you need another starter in
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: a catcher. Those are the two biggest needs for me
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: for the White Sox. Now, what that move is Foster Griffin,
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: That would be a good move for the White Sox,
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: someone like that. And as far as catcher goes, I
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: don't know because I just don't know what catcher will
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: be traded. I mean, Hunter Goodman would be nice, but
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: then you hurt Kyle Teele's value, right, So it's got
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: to be a right handed hitting I don't want to
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: say a backup, but a backup that could play every day.
• 40:45
  Speaker 3: Tyler Stevenson. Tyler Stevenson would be good, but a j
• 40:49
  Speaker 3: What you just said, the American League is bad. I
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: think we all can agree with that. So does that
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: bode to the point of why they're in the tea
• 41:00
  Speaker 3: or that they're.
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: In Yes, well, I think because I think people look
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: at the division and the league that they're in and say,
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: oh wow, you can actually maybe make some noise this
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: year or White Sox, and they have made noise, so
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: they deserve credit for that. But I always listen. It's
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: what it's like what we talked about Jim Duke. As
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: a former player, you always want the team in the
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: team that you root for or the team that you're
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: on to do something to help your team take that
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: next step. And I think that's what White Sox fans
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: are looking for because they want to see the White
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: Sox take the next step because they've dealt with the
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: crap for the last three years of losing one hundred
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: games and the promise of we have this guy coming,
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: this guy coming, Well, guess what if it's a year early,
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: so what it's still there for the taking if you
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: want it.
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you got to embrace the year early thing. Sometimes
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: the window. This is the consistency with the window. It
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: almost always you're winning. Window starts earlier than you expected
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: and ends earlier than you expect it.
• 42:00
  Speaker 4: But you have to be ready to pounce. You have
• 42:02
  Speaker 4: to be ready to pounce when that.
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: I look at the Cubs when they won, right, and
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: as much as we all know that I love the Cubs,
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: but I'll give them credit. I'll give THEO in that
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: front office credit. When it came time, they were ready.
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: They already had a deal, they already had lesser there, right,
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: they already had Lackey there. Twenty fifteen boom, and then
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: twenty sixteen came and it was like, oh, we caught
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: lightning in a bottle.
• 42:21
  Speaker 4: We can win this whole thing. And then they were
• 42:23
  Speaker 4: like expected to.
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: Have this long, long window of winning and they never
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: came close again.
• 42:27
  Speaker 4: So if you have that chance, you got to take it.
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: There is a rhetoric in front offices about sustainable winning
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: product that actually is publicly stated frequently these days in
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: the off season. And I don't know, if I'm a fan,
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: I'm like, can you just say I want to win
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: a World Series title? Like you don't have to say
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: I want to win a World Series but then we
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: might suck for five years, but every fan base would
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: take that. So the sustainable winning product, now, I'm good
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: if it's your year. And yes, I know we've picked
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: on it, pick the Brewers, and yes you can do both.
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: And actually, you know, you know who's done this pretty
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: well in terms of the trades. Aj Preler wheels and deals,
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: and sometimes he's traded away some big guys, and then
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: he does a nice job of replenishing, and I know
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: it's getting a little barren, but he bets on himself
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: to replenish again, and that's how he's able to make
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: these big trades. Right, Mason Miller is not the most
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: expensive guy. He was the most expensive guy prospect wise
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: last year, giving up someone like Leo DeVries if he
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: turns into a star. Okay, but you got the best
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: closer in baseball like.
• 43:29
  Speaker 3: Byes come from. He came from the minor league system,
• 43:33
  Speaker 3: which which just returns and regard international prospects.
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: Yes, exactly, So I love it. I'm with you. So
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: it's fun playing the Tears. And of course you know
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: we're going to be pushy, but I think fans need
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: to make sure that they feel pushy about a team
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: that is in contention. A few little notes on our
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: way out. I know, AJ you've been watching that Yankees
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: White Sox series. Defensively, the Yankees had a little problem yesterday.
• 44:12
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: As a former catcher, I'm just gonna say this, and
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: I know things happened fast than the big Lenkus cratch
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: with two outs. And I tell my son this all
• 44:19
  Speaker 2: the time. With two outs, if you're going to backpick
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: a guy unless you're absolutely here's the thing, unless your
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: kitcher's in an awful jam. Right, crats like an awful jam.
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: It's an inning, they're thirty pitches in and the bases
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: are loaded. You can steal them out and get him
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: out of the inning quickly make that throw. Other than that,
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: there is no situation where I'm throwing the ball to
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: try to pick a guy off, especially at third base
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: when he's the tying run. They have to get a
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: hit or and earn that run. You cannot just I
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: watched this live and I literally was like, I do
• 44:52
  Speaker 2: not know what just happened. I don't know why he
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: threw the ball.
• 44:55
  Speaker 4: I know McMahon broke.
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: I don't know why McMahon broke if he was speaking,
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: But that throw was just completely That whole play was
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: a disaster.
• 45:02
  Speaker 4: It cost him a game.
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: I was happy because I'm a Wait Tuck fan, But wow,
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: I cannot believe that they made that throat. If you
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: haven't seen it, you're just gonna have to google it.
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: The catcher tries to throw it look like you wasn't
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: ready to throw, and again two outscratched you cannot throw
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: the ball.
• 45:16
  Speaker 3: I'll even go on top of that. What I tell
• 45:18
  Speaker 3: catchers and I tell my team there's two outs in
• 45:21
  Speaker 3: the game, the runner on third. Especially young kids, especially
• 45:25
  Speaker 3: high school kids, they're.
• 45:26
  Speaker 4: Like, oh, runner on third, Oh my gosh.
• 45:30
  Speaker 3: Block the ball. Honestly, I don't even care if we're up.
• 45:33
  Speaker 3: I think it was two oh count right there. I
• 45:35
  Speaker 3: don't care if you can't find the strike zone. I
• 45:38
  Speaker 3: have an opportunity to walk two guys and still get
• 45:41
  Speaker 3: three to zero. One another batter, and we're still not
• 45:44
  Speaker 3: losing the game. Like, I am not picking off? Who
• 45:47
  Speaker 3: was it? Didn Max Muntz He say like, hey, we'll
• 45:49
  Speaker 3: think about maybe picking ikf off here in the World
• 45:54
  Speaker 3: Series Game seven. No, Giants, No, you aren't doing it.
• 45:58
  Speaker 3: It's not happening. And I love throwing. AJ was really
• 46:01
  Speaker 3: good at hitting. I really liked throwing. I would throw
• 46:05
  Speaker 3: the basis. I loved picking guys off a second, trying
• 46:08
  Speaker 3: to back pick it first. That's not the situation. You
• 46:12
  Speaker 3: have the picture in that situation where you're like, we're
• 46:15
  Speaker 3: gonna get the out and we're gonna get out of
• 46:16
  Speaker 3: the inning. Ice he threw it, and then he and
• 46:19
  Speaker 3: then he yard garded it to third.
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: Well, get your mistakes out of the way now.
• 46:28
  Speaker 4: But isn't this always what we say again?
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: Listen, Yankees are really good, but they make mistakes on
• 46:34
  Speaker 2: defense and they have to hit homers to score because
• 46:36
  Speaker 2: they went like three extra innings and they they only
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: scored because you know whatever, because they scored one run
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: in three innings I think in extra innings because they
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: didn't hit homers.
• 46:45
  Speaker 4: It's kind of the Yankees thing.
• 46:49
  Speaker 3: In that situation, Ali, He's like, hey, hey, we're we're
• 46:53
  Speaker 3: we're picking here. He's like, nope, nope.
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: Plus he had too far to go. It was a shift.
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: He was playing shortstop.
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: Basically, we have, Oh, Dodgers territory, if you want it,
• 47:10
