  Speaker 3: Paul Kenosha chiming on YouTube, we're talking about Hank Aaron

  Speaker 3: anniversary of the home run. He said he's at the
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: game when Hank hit his last homer.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: What great memories. I was sitting in the bleachers all right,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Paul and Kenosha, friend of the show, uh Dave Schultz
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: basketball wizard was also.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: At that game. Yeah, I saw Hank hit a home run.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: But it wasn't that one.
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: Still you saw run against Pretty cool that you saw
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: it though I was very young.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, in the building. Also got an autograph at one
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: point from Hank when he was playing.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: For the Brewers. Awesome. I didn't have it anymore.
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: I had that the book you were talking about, I
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: had a hammer or a hammer. I got the book
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: because he was signing at the airport when I was
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: a kid. But he's only signing the book. So my
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: mom bought the book and got it signed. Actually I
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: wasn't there to meet him, though. My mom came home
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: and she said, I thought you might want this. Hank
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: Aaron was signing autographs at the airport, and I bought
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: the book. I'm like, you got Hank Aaron's autograph, and
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: sure enough it was there. So I still have that.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: It's a it's a treasure copy. I didn't get to
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: meet him though, so unfortunately have the story. But you know,
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: I would imagine it's like everyone's going to have a
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: story like that. You know, think about Yiannis today because
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: Jannis went to Miami and got introduced, Like I think
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: about all those thousands of people that were waiting outside
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: that car dealership to meet.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Him if you remember that.
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, one of those year what year was at six
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: seven years ago and it was like, you know, it
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: was set up, announced and he obviously became a big
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: deal and it was like streets and streets and he
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: waited and was late and met thousands of people.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Things. Those are the memories.
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: So you know, you can touch people, you can touch
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: their lives with one small moment, and Hank did that
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: for everybody. Yeah, we were talking about that, you know,
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: with Hank and meeting give and stuff like that. So
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: who was the first autograph you ever got? The first
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: athlete you ever encountered in the flesh?
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: Great?
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: Who was? I think mine was Vin Baker.
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: I think about this a lot, and I go back
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: into the depths of my memory and I was at
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: the YMCA Bucks camp, like the summer camp whatever. It
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: was like a two day camp and I played YMCA
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: basketball when I was like ten or eleven, and they
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: let a few kids you know, you get to go.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: So it was exciting. I remember my dad Leon was
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: telling me about this. My dad was like, we're gonna
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: be there and you're gonna be playing with Bucks players
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: because there was a Bucks coaches and players there, and
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: in my head I had these dreams that I was
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: gonna be shooting at the Bradley Center all alone with
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: the Bucks team, and that's not reality. We went to
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: the Cousins Center, but it was great and there was
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: a lot of kids and Vin Baker, Eric Murdoch where
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: there is the player players and Mike Dunley, Dunleavy and
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: Frank Hamblin were the coaches and we all went to
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: different stations and they taught his drills. I remember Frank
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: Hamlin teaching us to bounce pass thumbs out wow, So
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: it was cool. Then Baker watched me shoot free throw.
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: I was like, that's what we did right. A bunch
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: of kids were in the line. On the way out.
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: My dad had my Bucks Mini ball and Vin Baker
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: was coming down this flat of stairs coming out and said, hey, Vinnie,
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: can you sign this for us? He said sure, and
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: he signed it. That was an exciting moment. And then
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: Eric Murdoch came running out and got out of there quick.
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: We asked him too, and he and he stipped us.
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: So thank you Vinny for signing the ball. No, thanks
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: to you, Eric Murdock for stiffing us. Was that was
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: my first memories Vin Baker signing the ball, and then
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: I think it was after that it was Sorillo.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: And Turner Ward on picture day.
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: Remember at Connie Seated they had picture Day and you
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: could go on the field of the warning track. Every
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: player was at a folding chair. You could take a picture.
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: I don't think they I got an.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: Autographed I got a picture, which was just as cool.
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, my mom had the camera and there's somewhere in
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: her in her picture album Turner Award making a goofy face.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: Soarrillo, you know, taking it, taking a drill over his
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: messy hair.
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: I think he might have been in an uniform with
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: the head on, but it was an icon. Yeah, that
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: was cool because it was our starback then, as you know, Drew.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, so big time awesome. My memory is there
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: right eight seven seven.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: The Nicolayla dot com talk and text line time for
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: a little Who's Hot, Who's Not?
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Brought to us by Donovan Jacobson. Heating and Cooling. We
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: mentioned them.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: Earlier because you know, we were talking about there's no
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: air conditioning at American Family Field and they can only
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: heat it for a little bit. But they're talking about
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: improving that they need to call Donovan Jorgenson employee owned
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: for forty years, Donovan Jorgenson dot com. There's a lot
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: more who's knots than who's hot? Like who's hot?
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Lionel Messi and Argentina. Yeah, that's
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: a good one.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: Because they've been you know, the stories and the they've
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: won some exciting games. Spain's just been suffocating people and
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: and they've only allowed one goal the whole freaking tournament.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: But Messi's like the best player in the pitch at
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: his age, and is this his last dance in the
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: World Cup?
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: Maybe maybe not. He's like Lebron.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: We've compared him to Lebron because of his age, but
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: he's just incredible to be the best player. So I
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: gotta go with Messi being hot. Now, will he be
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: hot Sunday?
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: We'll see.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: It's highly anticipated. You know who else is hot? Sports
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: bar owners?
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: Oh?
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Yes, nationwide?
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: This has been a big summer for them, and you
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: could say a World Cup soccer who cares? These games
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: are drawn people out, and especially in cities where you
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: know there's a if you know the Scottish took over Boston,
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: They weren't just there to attend the games. They were
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: going to bars to watch the other games. Because these
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: football fans internationally, they're into the World Cup and they
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: want to watch it and consume the whole thing, and
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: so the lines at sports bars, the sales, the restocking.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: It's been a huge summer for sports bars in the
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: World Cup. Yeah, absolutely huge. Also saw really quick about Messi.
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: I saw he was hot about detractor of Argentina because
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: there's a lot of speaking of Lebron. There's a lot
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: of people in the soccer community that think they're the
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: chosen ones, that it's rake for them, rig for Messi.
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: They've had some questionable calls and things, and he said, no,
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: it's because we've earned it. We're champions, nothing more, nothing less.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: So he kind of was hot about that as well.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: You know, another interesting thing of who's hot who's not.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna say who's hot, who's not hot? Rory McElroy
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: struggling to make the cut at the Open Championship.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: Well, yeah, but you think people are watching the Open
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: British as much?
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: Well, now that the three Lions are out, yeah, maybe
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: it would have been different. It's funny how everybody virtually everybody,
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: at least two thirds, if not three quarters, of the
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: people who rooted for England are now all about Spain.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: They don't want, they don't want Argentina.
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: So Argentina seems to be that like lightning Rod, like
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: about the people cheering and they.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: Just won the last one and their history with England,
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: so that England they're like, they beat him.
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: So yeah, especially if you're Ronaldo fan, because this takes
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: away the shine from Ronaldo being goat and stuff like that.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: No question, no question. Who's not hot?
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: Hate to say it, Christian Yell, it's not hot. Last
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: twenty one games, Christian Yelich is batting one seventy five.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: He was struggling into the break, ninety four plaate appearances,
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: eighty official at bats out of eighty at bats, twenty
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: six punch outs. That's a lot of strikeouts, man for him,
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: too many. One homer and seven RBI in his last
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: month play.
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: Discipline has always been a strength of miss so I'd
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: be surprised if that continues because usually when he's not hitting,
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: he's still you know, taking walks and things like that.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: For the season, in fifty eight games started, he's got
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: fifty nine hits, thirteen doubles, a triple, six homers, thirty
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: one RBI to forty three batting average. He's not been hot,
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: No wh is need him. But I heard a lot
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: of people like would you bench him? Like, no, you
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: let him swing out of it because he's right into
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: the team. I think you to rite it out.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I would think. All right.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: So that's who's hot who's not. Brought to us by
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: Donovan Jorgenson Heating and Cooling. Check them out. And we
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: told you months ago to get your air conditioner tuned up.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: Now start time to start thinking about the furnace. If
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: it was coughing and wheezing and you think it's on
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: its last legs, get it taken care of now and
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: have peace of mind going in the winter, because that
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: first polar vortex that hits us, if your furnace craps out,
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: you're gonna be screwed. You got to anticipate these things.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: So how our friends at Donovan Jorgenson can help you.
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: For sure, And ace's important right now to get that
• 8:29

  Speaker 3: and they're gonna give you the best so, no question,
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: they're important to have today and every day.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: Obviously, speaking of it.
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: On YouTube, John Carzowl masking up so you don't inhale
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: the Canada smoke, and he said the first autograph he
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: got was Nick Bockwinkle was working at the Dennys by
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: the airport. A bunch of aw A wrestlers stopped in
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: after the show at the arena.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: Pretty cool. I don't know what that is, but I'm pretty.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: Nick Bockwinkle was one of the legends of the aw
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: circuit back in the day.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was like a bit of a heel, nice
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: champion and they came into Denny's. Gotta love that. Oh yeah,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: got a Grand Slam. Milwaukee was a hotbed for that.
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: PAULI g Mine was Bernardo Harris x Packer. There's a
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: little Packer pick up basketball game or something. I was
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: walking to the bathroom or something and took me out.
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: I vaguely remember it was at Nasha High School. All right, Polly, Well,
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: that's kind of a random story, but I love it.
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: That's what That's what makes it great, right, the randomness
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: of it.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: The randomness totally does eight seven seven seven Nicolay Law
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: dot Com talk and text line.
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: Aaron Fondi, George Koontz, first autograph, Tommy and Sallas, Robin YONSI,
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: my Brewers fan club Zuba hat.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: Oh that's a great hat.
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: Oh that's one I would love to buy on a
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: thrift store off the internet, The Brewers Fan Club Zuba Hat.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: I was young on the incas faded, but the memory
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: never will. That's the important thing.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: Robin was signing at the Greenfield City Hall the three
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: thousand book, and there was such a long line and
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: then eventually had to stop, and we waited all morning
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: and we were like ten people away and didn't get
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: the autograph. But I wasn't mad at him. Even back then,
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: I wasn't mad at him. I said, you know, we
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: can't stay here forever. What he supposed to do? Like,
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: I knew Robin wasn't like doing it to disrespect.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: I had enough.
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: Maturity at ten years old to know he wasn't doing
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: it to me personally.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: So I was cool with it. I was cool with
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: itn I got over it. I was like one day
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: and you know, as time goes on and you meet
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: him again, so yeah, it was all right, that's too funny.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: All right, keep him coming.
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: We like these memories eight seven, seven, seven, nine four
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: one ninety seven three.
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: Ben says Paul Alder saw him at party land where
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: Beloit in Oklahoma cross Okay, yeah, over there in the
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: west side a little bit. He was returning a helium
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: tank and if I remember right, he was in a
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: maroon camaro. I was getting my papers from my paper
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: routes that weekday afternoon. The randomness of the story is
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: probably better than the actual player. He was on his
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: paper route and he saw him returning a helium tank
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: from a party in my maroon camaro.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: You gotta love that. Oh my god, good stuff. Right,
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: keep them coming. Oh man, that's too funny.
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: The talk of text slit in the comments on YouTube
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: are they're popping right now. We appreciate it. So all right,
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: Giannis had his presser, so did Bobby. We've we kind
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: of covered that if you want to read the comments.
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: Did you see that pat Riley did make a joke
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: about not wanting to be punched by Bam.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because he.
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: Forgot to mention him or something when they talk about
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: what they're building and stuff. I don't know, and he said,
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: I don't want to I don't want to get punched.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: I don't want to get punched. The NBA announced there
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: will be no sanctions for the players.
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: They're spending all their time investigating the Bucks with a
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: Gary Trent deal.
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: It's like, who cares? Leave us alone?
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: At this point, yeah, there's probably who cares.
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: I don't.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: I don't think why would Why would they care? This
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: they circumvented.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: It's nowhere near what's happened with Kawhi, No chance, but
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: it was a handshake deal that looks a little shady
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: on its surface, hard to prove. I think the Bucks
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: have some plausible deniability, but most people would say, yeah,
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: that was a preconceived deal, Like the last two contracts,
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: he took less and then we took care of him
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: on the back end.
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: I get why you'd want to enforce the rule, because
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: then there's this thought that unless the NBA enforces it,
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: any way to circumvent the rules is accepted, and therefore
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: every team should do it. And then you get every
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: then you become you know, you said, a precedent of
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: teams being allowed to continue to push the envelope more
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: and more, and people want integrity and their rules and
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: their game. Listen, I understand all that. Trust me as
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: a Brewer fan. It frustrates us more than anything. Well,
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: because see teams like the Dodgers defer money. But the
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: reality is, I don't I don't know. Like you said,
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: it's hard to prove. How can you prove the Bucks
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: don't think Gary Trent is worth sixteen million a year.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: They think he is. Well, well, maybe the league doesn't.
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean, okay, the league didn't think that Desmond
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: Bane was worth four first but they got it.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: So I don't know. What are you gonna do? Yeah,
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: that's that's an interesting way.
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: To You could look at it like John Horst did
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: his job better than than anyone, Like if this is
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: really what John Horse did to try and create a
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: contender on Giannis was making a handshake deal with Gary
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: Trent and Rich Paul and say, look, we're gonna pay
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: him later more. We want to give him good on him,
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: because that means if he wasn't getting dinged for it,
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: he tried. I mean, they got us on the bog
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: Done deal, so they didn't get us on this one too.
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: It just makes you feel like what Tarkanian used to
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: say about the NCAA that when a big school does
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: something wrong, they punished the little schools to try and
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: show its strength, but they don't really want to pun it,
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: Like it just feels like they get picked on the
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: Buck sometimes. But maybe that's just my persecution complex. Is
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: a small market fan could be. Yeah, that's probably a
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: big part of it is that.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: You're right.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: They did their job and they as as somebody pointed out,
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: and it's sarcastic, but it's true. They don't need to
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: punish the Bucks because that contracts punishment.
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: Enough, right, isn't it just enough four.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: Years at sixty five when they're already paying Dame for
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: the next couple of years.
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: They are, I mean, the Bucks are in that type
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: of situation and they're going to be in that for
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: a while.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: That's just what we knew. This was Rich Paul client.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: Is Rich Paul now the Scott Boris of of basketball?
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: I guess. So everyone's so afraid to not do good
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: business with the club and he's got the key.
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: Guys, Well, let me ask you, isn't it mostly Lebron?
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: What's gonna happen when Lebron leaves? Is Rich Paul's influence
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: going to fade too.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: That's good question.
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: I sort of think it might, but that's Billy would
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: love this question, so I should probably say it for him.
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: Billy loves stuff like this, But I I sort of
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: think it might. But listen, Lebron's still there on his
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: big tour now, so we'll see what happens.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: I don't know what the Calci and the polymarkets are saying,
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: but I have no feel I just the one thing
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: I do think is if he ends up going to
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: Philly or Miami or even Golden State, and it's gonna
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: be another snub to Cleveland because Cleveland's got their hopes up.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: They're daydreaming about Donovan Mitchell and having Harden and Lebron
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: take them to a title.
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: The other reason I don't think it'll be Miami in
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: the end is because and Bill and I talked about this.
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: It's like, you know, Giannis is about ego hubris, things
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: like that. Most of the time, he's not gonna forget
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: what Pat did to him and the bad blood they
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: had over the cookies and things like that. I don't
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: think he's gonna let want to give Pat the satisfaction
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: of going back there like now, Pat Riley's gonna go
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: bend the needy to Lebron again, which seems weird because
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: everyone was afraid of Big bad Pat, even Lebron.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: He was like the one to stand up for Lebron.
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: I don't think that there's gotta be a lot of
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: waxy build up there, wouldn't you think you would think?
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: So That's why I don't see it happening.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: In terms of the best basketball fit though, is it
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: the Heat? Like the Sixers seem to have a lot
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: of ball handlers, you know, and.
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: Well, if he wants to handle the ball, then it
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: might be so he can play the point. I guess
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: Cleveland would be good too, but then you have Don
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: and Mitchell there. It depends if Lebron sees himself as
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: that guy or he just wants to be a kind
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: of a stretch wing for that that's gonna help the
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: team whatever way he needs to a perimeter guy three.
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: I'm not really sure because I'm not sure being a
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: point guard is his best thing right now, but maybe
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: it is, and the Heat need guards. If he's gonna
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: play guard, the Sixers definitely don't. But I think if
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: he gets past that, he can really help the Sixers
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: by being a better presence inside help embid and all
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: those guards they have. So it is kind of interesting.
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: The Dubs would just be the the Warriors would just
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: be kind of like a retirement tour. I think just
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: because he wanted to play with Steph one day. You know,
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: That's that's kind of the way I look at that thing.
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a whole Reddit thread to devoted armant is
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: rich Paul cooked when Lebron retires.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: Oh there you go. I thought that clutch sports. But
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: they that you know, they've got other guys. They do
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: have decent clients.
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: It's just I think those clients are there because of
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: the influence with.
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: But with lebronn offices don't like him because of the
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: he's got like this cartel thing going. Sure, he's got
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: some football guys. I think he's got Jalen Hurts and
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: some other guys. Oh yeah, I didn't realize that. Okay,
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: got guys in other sports.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: I mean, he'll he'll be there. I will exist.
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: I don't know if everyone will do is everything they
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: can to that's tracks to his ability is.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: All right?
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: Keep him coming eight seven seven seven nine ninety seven
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: three gets you into the Nicola loat dot com talk
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: and text line.
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: I think we're gonna have Hunter on the phone next.
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: All right, Hunter will be on the phone. We need
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: our current electric superhero. The day you got anybody in mind.
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: The guy I thought about was our uh, our our guy.
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: That was the old Saint Louis Cardinals.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: That's what I was thinking about too, since you played
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: that sounder back, why not?
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Who did not look for personal game?
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: Even though he got some ancillary things like a mini van.
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: It's not like he got it gave it up for nothing,
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: but he was willing to give it up for nothing,
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: which is why they gave him the swag that they
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: did him.
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: Fernios. I'll make him.
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: Public defender working for the people as a young man,
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: he set the tone. He's our current electric superhero today.
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: Call current dot com is the website Current Electric. They
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: got the superheroes on the side of the van, and
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: they will help you their superheroes when it comes to
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: all things electrical needs in the Milwaukee area.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: Hit them up. Call current dot com is the website.
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: I do like that, especially since the guy kept Hank
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: Aaron's ball and then had him surreptitiously sign it funny.
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: He handed the ball to Hank to sign it in
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: nineteen ninety four and then got rid of it to
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: a collector five years later. Yeah, I prefer the way
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: the guy that the Saint Louis. I prefer that route actually,
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: But then again it was the Brewers were stinging and
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: all he wanted to do was meat Hank and didn't
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: get us.
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: And this guy tim't really quick.
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: Got a great quote when he was interviewed about this
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: ten years ago about having no regrets. He said being
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: part of this moment led to so many other things
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: in life. The thinking that money always helps make things easier.
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: That's not always the case with lottery winners. Look, there's
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: in a disaster. So I like his perspective on the
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: whole thing. That's a great human perspective.
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: Good job, good job, hunter.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: Barbero joins us. Next we'll talk Brewers. You're in the
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: huddle Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: Today.
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: He'll be back Monday, and I'll be gone on Monday,
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: taking a little week off before the Star camp.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: That's right.
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: Packers start camp very soon, a week from Wednesday. And
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: until then, even after that, we will have baseball to
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: talk about. And as it happens. Our baseball go to
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: guy is on the nicolay lot dot com talking tech sign.
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: Right now we say hello to our own Hunter Bombguard Hunter,
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: welcome back. I know you're excited to get going for
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: this air quotes second half of the season.
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: Yes, I am, no doubt about it. It's yeah, they
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: haven't had a home game in a couple of weeks.
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: This is obviously a three city road trip into the
• 19:35
  Speaker 4: All Star break, so it's been a while, and then
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: obviously you have the All Star Break mixed in there,
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: so it's been a couple of weeks. Excited to get
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: back to the ballpark today. And I mean the team
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: again going into a second half, is in a really
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: good spot. They're in obviously a five game lead in
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: the division gave and a half back of the Dodgers
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: for the top spot in the NL, so they're set
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: up for a really fun stretch run. And of course
• 19:56
  Speaker 4: the first thing that will be probably on everybody's minds
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: is the next couple of weeks before the trade deadline.
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: You incurred an Adam and Spencer.
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: I know the Brewers b could be that uh that
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: long apart from each other? Do you guys miss each
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: other or is it one of those things do you
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: schedule a meet up? I mean, because Hunter, this is
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: a long time for for you and the boys to
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: be away from each other.
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: I mean, you know what I mean. This is tough.
• 20:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we yeah, we haven't spent that much time a
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: part since the seasons. That's probably if you think about it. Yeah, yeah,
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: it's you know, it's it's tough, and you know there's
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: been a few tears shed. Yea. Hopefully you know when
• 20:30
  Speaker 4: we get back tonight, you know, everything well, you know,
• 20:33
  Speaker 4: it'll be it'll be like normal again. There is a
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: rumor that we're trying to uh there there might be
• 20:39
  Speaker 4: a a event of of golf between US US reporters
• 20:45
  Speaker 4: there in the press box. Now, this is not necessarily
• 20:49
  Speaker 4: you know, as you guys know, not necessarily up my allely,
• 20:52
  Speaker 4: I can't say that. I'm necessarily well, not even good,
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: but experienced in the golf side of things. So that
• 20:59
  Speaker 4: would be if this comes to fruition. It might even
• 21:02
  Speaker 4: happen this coming week. If that, if that happens, then
• 21:06
  Speaker 4: oh boy, this this that might be a story to
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: tell you guys.
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: That's something we'd have to document. Yeah, digital assets for sure,
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: that something to document.
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: That's great, along with the annual Pud Galvin Cup of
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: the media against the Burrs front office and softball.
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: That's always just to say it together. That's the important thing,
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: all right.
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: So Hunter brass tacks first of all, everybody who was
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: still bumming about the Pittsburgh It seems like a month ago,
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: but the Burrs lost three over the weekend in Pittsburgh
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: going into the break. Next year, the schedule dropped yesterday.
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: Brews have another three city trip going into the All
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: Star Break, but this one though is Cincinnati, Washington, and Cleveland,
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: so they don't go to Pittsburgh.
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: So let's consider that a victory.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: And then the All Star Game next year is at Wrigley,
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: and the Burs have a three city, three three team
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: homestand coming out of it, so that's on the positive side.
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: It is, Yes, it's very similar to this year, three
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: city road trip into the alste break and then three
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: of you know, nine game homestand are still coming out
• 22:05
  Speaker 4: of it. That's exactly what happened this year. Last year's
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: schedule is kind of similar. You know, you open at
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: home against an AL team. They opened against the Angels
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: on the March twenty fifth that Thursday. Then they have
• 22:15
  Speaker 4: the Friday off, the whole deal. Their first road trip
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: is against the White Sox and the Blue Jays. There's
• 22:19
  Speaker 4: a couple of things. What I always look for, Okay,
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: what's the longest road trip, what's the longest Homestand you
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: look for do they open at home? Do they close
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: at home? They close on the road in Texas next year.
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: But I always think it's just hilarious that the Major
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: League Baseball, you know, you have the schedule release. Of course,
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: in the NFL hypes it up. They do a whole
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: week of it, you know, the NBA, and then the
• 22:39
  Speaker 4: MLB is like, yeah, all of a sudden, on a
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: random day, it's like, oh yeah, here's the schedule. And
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: yesterday it was like, all of a sudden, you know,
• 22:46
  Speaker 4: I saw some people, Oh, you know, Cleveland schedule came out. Oh,
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: Seattle announced this. The Brewers had, you know, a half
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: hour later, Oh, here's the Brewers schedule. It's like it
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: wasn't even all at the same time. It was like, okay,
• 22:56
  Speaker 4: here exactly exactly. So it's just funny how they do that,
• 23:01
  Speaker 4: and it's funny how it's now like I get it
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: Thursday at the all start break if you're going to
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: do it, you know, during the dead time of the season.
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: But it would make a lot more sense if you,
• 23:09
  Speaker 4: I don't know, get everybody excited for baseball and I
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: don't know December. Although this year it's going to be like, well,
• 23:15
  Speaker 4: what what of these games are actually going to be played?
• 23:17
  Speaker 4: And we'll see if the Angels game on the twenty
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: fifth of March is it's true twenty fifth of March.
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: Well, we can worry about the labor stuff when this
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: season is over. Too much to get to Hunter Lance mccullors.
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: I mean, he'll meet the media today in Milwaukee. What
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: do you think about that acquisition? Yeah, Harman and I
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: were instantly flashing back to Julio Tehran.
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: Now because you got you got ten starts out of them, right,
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: you got the most out of the Orange.
• 23:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's that's a good comparison. I think it is.
• 23:49
  Speaker 4: This is maybe a little more because I think tay
• 23:51
  Speaker 4: Ron was a if I remember a signing, and this
• 23:54
  Speaker 4: is more of a trade. Right, you have something to
• 23:56
  Speaker 4: get something, not that you gave up something great, you know,
• 23:58
  Speaker 4: I mean Jaya Fielder, We'll see what he does obviously
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: the son of Prince kind of it's heartbreaking for fans,
• 24:03
  Speaker 4: but obviously it's not a high level prospect or anything.
• 24:06
  Speaker 4: I think it's a good bet for the Brewers. I
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: think it's a guy. And one of the things Man
• 24:10
  Speaker 4: Arnold said when he talked to reporters after the trade
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: is this guy has great postseason experience and the like
• 24:17
  Speaker 4: pitching in postseason games. And I think that quote stuck
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: out to me, like when these when the Brewers are
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: making these acquisitions, whether it's mccullor's deal or whatever deals
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: they make over the next couple of weeks, it's not
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: just about getting into the postseason, getting whatever you getting
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: whatever you can to get over the Cubs and win
• 24:34
  Speaker 4: the division or get a while, whatever it is to
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: get in the postseason. This is a team that's thinking about, okay,
• 24:39
  Speaker 4: when we get there, because we expect to be there.
• 24:41
  Speaker 4: We're twenty two games over five hundred, we're one of
• 24:43
  Speaker 4: the best teams in baseball. When we get there, how
• 24:47
  Speaker 4: is the rotation going to set up, how is the
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: bullpen going to set up, house, the offense going to
• 24:50
  Speaker 4: set up defense, everything like that, And I think this
• 24:53
  Speaker 4: is this proves that and that quote proves that that
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: it's not just about getting in anymore. It's about making
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: a run and getting to that World Series that they
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: were close to last year. So I think this is
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: a move towards that. Now it's a risk. There's some
• 25:05
  Speaker 4: risk to it, and Matt Arnold admitted that as well,
• 25:08
  Speaker 4: because when you get a guy who's, you know, been
• 25:10
  Speaker 4: hurt for a lot of the last five seasons, he's
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: just battled in and out of injury and obviously hasn't
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: pitched in the Major since May thirteenth, there is some
• 25:18
  Speaker 4: risk associated with that. And he's been around for a
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: long time. But I kind of on the show last night,
• 25:23
  Speaker 4: I kind of compared him, and it's not necessarily apples
• 25:26
  Speaker 4: to apples. It's not exactly, you know, the type of
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: pitcher or maybe even the dominant side pitcher, but it
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: seems mccullors was kind of the woodroof of the Astros
• 25:35
  Speaker 4: right where he was there for a really long time.
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: Really the city loved him. He obviously won the World
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: Series with them, had some great moments in that run
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: and a couple of the runs that they made, and
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: now it's time where his injuries are kind of catching up.
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: To him and maybe it's time for a new start
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: and the Astros want to move on save some salary.
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: And so that's kind of what it seemed like a
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: little to me, is the Birds are kind of getting
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: the Brandon Wood of Houston. Now. Is he going to
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: be effective? Is he going to is he as effective
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: as he was early in his career. That's obviously a
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: big question mark. But if he's on and if he,
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: you know, uses that experience to his advantage, then and
• 26:14
  Speaker 4: the Brewers use that experience that he has to his
• 26:16
  Speaker 4: advantage and he's able to help maybe some of the
• 26:18
  Speaker 4: younger pitchers as well. This is a young staff, maybe
• 26:21
  Speaker 4: that maybe that turns into a really kind of underrated
• 26:24
  Speaker 4: acquisition as we go down the stretch. So I'm I'm excited.
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: I don't think, you know, it's not a splash move,
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: but I think it's a moved that kind of is
• 26:32
  Speaker 4: under the radar like the Brewers usually do, and maybe
• 26:34
  Speaker 4: it can help more than we think.
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: That's a great point we mentioned that, Yeah, the woodroof,
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: it's not going to be their only move either. I
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: don't think.
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: Also, don't you think Hunter that I mean, obviously he
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: was a starter's whole career.
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: But it doesn't have to just be a starter.
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: I mean he can be a the eyeball bullpen arm
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: that might give you a couple of innings in an
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: important spot in a game two or three.
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: You just don't know how they'll all shake out.
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: If the Brewers, you know, got you know, analytics, guy's
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: pitching lab whatever they research staff might identify certain pitches
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: that they wanted to focus on more. You saw them
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: do that with Kantana where a certain breaking ball rates
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: went up higher, and they say, we think you can
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: mix guys up for a couple of innings, keep them
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: off balanced.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: That might be where his value.
• 27:13
  Speaker 4: Lies totally, especially in the postseason where some guys are
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: you know, if you're a starter, sometimes you go to
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: the bullpen and vice versa. Like it just everything is
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: kind of We saw Trevor McGill start Game five last year,
• 27:26
  Speaker 4: so like obviously in the postseason it can anything can
• 27:29
  Speaker 4: happen as far as what they do with their pitching staff.
• 27:32
  Speaker 4: So yeah, I definitely think so. I think they're really
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: good at using guys to their whatever their best attributes
• 27:39
  Speaker 4: are and getting that out of them and putting them
• 27:41
  Speaker 4: in the best positions to succeed and right now, I
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: mean they might just need him as a starter at
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: least obviously to start things just because of the injuries
• 27:50
  Speaker 4: and the rest are getting guys and whatnot. So we'll
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: see if he's you know, who's going to be in
• 27:55
  Speaker 4: Milwaukee yesterday and then probably today they're going to decide, Okay,
• 27:59
  Speaker 4: is your next outing in the major league level with
• 28:02
  Speaker 4: the Brewers? It could be, man, I don't said it
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: could be his next start could be with the Brewers
• 28:05
  Speaker 4: at the major league level, or do you want to
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: have him do one more rehab rehab start. He had
• 28:10
  Speaker 4: made three outings for Triple A in the Houston organization
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: and it was pretty good two point four or five
• 28:15
  Speaker 4: ERA over those three outings, so he seemed ready. His
• 28:19
  Speaker 4: velocity and pitch count was better in that last outing.
• 28:23
  Speaker 4: Kind of scenes. Okay, maybe he's ready to rock and
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: roll at the major league level. So if that's the case,
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: uh yeah, then we might see him today and you
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: might see him in that Mets series next week.
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: Where is Colton Gordon headed hunter? Is that Nashville for sure?
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: And then see because like having a twenty seven year
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: old lefty, I'd like to see what Chris Hok and
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: Jim Henderson could do with that kid.
• 28:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure, right, I mean that they're kind of
• 28:48
  Speaker 4: people are kind of saying this might be the gem
• 28:50
  Speaker 4: of the deal a little bit. It kind of it
• 28:52
  Speaker 4: reminds me of he's the Shane Drowan to the Kyle
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: Harrison Like he's the like Kyle Harrison was the headline
• 28:58
  Speaker 4: of that deal, and of course for that deal to work,
• 29:00
  Speaker 4: Kyle Harrison needed to be pretty pretty good because you
• 29:03
  Speaker 4: were giving up your starting third basement and there's a
• 29:05
  Speaker 4: lot of hype around him. But then also, like Shane
• 29:08
  Speaker 4: Joan was very intriguing, they're both lefties. There's a guy
• 29:11
  Speaker 4: who can start and be in relief. It kind of
• 29:14
  Speaker 4: seems the same way where if they get Colton Gordon
• 29:16
  Speaker 4: in here and they're able to get the best out
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: of him like they did Shane's rowand he could kind
• 29:21
  Speaker 4: of be in that similar role and he's got you know,
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: a lot of years of control in the future as well.
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: So it's it's it's interesting how Matt Arnold is so
• 29:28
  Speaker 4: good and kind of getting Okay, we got mccullors, who
• 29:31
  Speaker 4: else can we get here? Maybe, you know, can we
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: get this guy who you know may struggle a little bit.
• 29:35
  Speaker 4: You know, he's only pitched in four games for Houston
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: this year, and he's you know, as the IRA was
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: like a Bubb eleven. But you know, at Triple A
• 29:41
  Speaker 4: he's made fourteen games, thirteen starts, three point six ninety
• 29:45
  Speaker 4: IRA like, he's been pretty good at the Triple A level.
• 29:48
  Speaker 4: Let's see if we can get this guy in here.
• 29:49
  Speaker 4: He's going to start at Triple A first and then
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: and then eventually, I would think because he was added
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: to the forty man so we'll see. I'm sure I
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: would think we'll see him at the major league level
• 29:59
  Speaker 4: at some point in the rest of the season, maybe
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: get a couple of starts in there in Nashville, and
• 30:04
  Speaker 4: then maybe if there's an injury, he comes up. But yeah,
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: this could be kind of the gem as far as
• 30:09
  Speaker 4: you know, a guy who can kind of do anything
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: for you that you need and you get Chris Hook
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: and Jim Henderson on him, and they never know what
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: can happen.
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: Hunter Bombgart joining us. He's brought just by Important Minded.
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: Your trusted source for vehicle care on twenty seven Street,
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: just north of eight ninety four. Import Minded is the spot. Okay,
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: so Hunter, what can the Brewers do? And one of
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: the big things that people are going to be focusing
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: on when they fire up tonight. First of all, what's
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: your thought? Will the roof be open or close tonight?
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: With the smoke?
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: What's wetter?
• 30:39
  Speaker 4: Oh, I was debating at yesterday. I was also debating,
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: like if the smoke would have been well, it's supposed
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: to be a little better by the time we get
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: to the ballpark this afternoon, and then early in this
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: evening it's supposed to clear out a little bit. But
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: it would have been yesterday. I think there would have
• 30:55
  Speaker 4: been at least I gotta think at least a consideration
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: of a postponement just because it was. It's just so
• 31:01
  Speaker 4: bad yesterday. I do wonder what they'll they'll do, Yeah,
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: because I know the Phillies moved their game up a
• 31:08
  Speaker 4: half hour to you know, to try to avoid the
• 31:11
  Speaker 4: worst of it. Like right, the roof was open in
• 31:14
  Speaker 4: the morning yesterday and then was closed in the evening,
• 31:18
  Speaker 4: So I'm eager to see what the I mean, I
• 31:21
  Speaker 4: guess closed if you close everything up, But it's also
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: going to be ninety two, so I don't know. It's like,
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: I don't know, it's like pick what you know you're
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: going to bake in there if it's if the roof
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: is closed and it's ninety two.
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: I think you have to pick the heat as a
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: poison if you had to pick one of two, because
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: at least the air in theory would still be better.
• 31:38
  Speaker 3: But you know we were talking about this. You have
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: to find a way to get the bad air out
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: and keep good air in. And they don't air condition
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: the bright so I don't know.
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: There are vents and things like Donovan Jorgenson.
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: They need they need our guys absolutely, absolutely.
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: All right, Hunter.
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: The other thing I want to ask you is I
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: saw something that the Brewers have the toughest schedule, strength
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: of schedule in the second half, like number one. But
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: they're opening with the Marlins, Mets Rockies, Giants, and Angels
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: out of the break. I know a kid's going to
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: get harder from there, but that seems like a pretty
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: soft open. Those are not you know, those teams. I
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: guess the Marlins are decent, but the Mets Rockies Giants
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: aren't really going anywhere.
• 32:16
  Speaker 4: No, No, you're right, the Marlins. Yeah, I'm eager to
• 32:20
  Speaker 4: see what happens this weekend. The Marlins are definitely a
• 32:22
  Speaker 4: team on the rise, and the Brewers took two or
• 32:25
  Speaker 4: three from them in Miami earlier this year, back in April.
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: But I'm interested to see how good they are. Obviously
• 32:33
  Speaker 4: they're playing better now than they were at that point,
• 32:35
  Speaker 4: and it's kind of finally coming to coming together a
• 32:38
  Speaker 4: little bit for that organization. But otherwise, yeah, the Mets
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: have not had a good year. We all know. The
• 32:42
  Speaker 4: Rockies Bruce swept them in Colorado. Giants they split, but
• 32:46
  Speaker 4: you know, they're they're obviously not having a good season.
• 32:49
  Speaker 4: And the Angels are the Angels. So I do wonder too,
• 32:52
  Speaker 4: like you get to the Giants and Angels the week
• 32:54
  Speaker 4: before the trade deadline, are some of those pieces gone
• 32:56
  Speaker 4: for those teams? Are they even in a worse spot.
• 32:59
  Speaker 4: We'll see what happens there, But I am I you've
• 33:03
  Speaker 4: kind of got to take advantage of this because yeah,
• 33:06
  Speaker 4: then and then you know, you have the road trip
• 33:07
  Speaker 4: of the Dodgers and the Taudres coming up, You have
• 33:10
  Speaker 4: their series against the Cubs in September, you have some
• 33:14
  Speaker 4: other you know, you have the Phillies and this schedule
• 33:16
  Speaker 4: and Cardinals again and like you do have you have
• 33:20
  Speaker 4: some obviously some teams you're gonna have to face. Now,
• 33:22
  Speaker 4: the Burrs are really good against teams over five hundred
• 33:24
  Speaker 4: this year, so like it's it's not like this is
• 33:26
  Speaker 4: a you know, they're scared of anybody or anything, but
• 33:29
  Speaker 4: it is true that they have a tougher schedule, but
• 33:32
  Speaker 4: take advantage of this early, you know, get some series
• 33:35
  Speaker 4: wins against these teams like the Mets and Rockies, and
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: just don't don't let what happened in Pittsburgh carry over
• 33:41
  Speaker 4: to the second half. I think I know a lot
• 33:43
  Speaker 4: of fans are probably thinking that, you know, just let's
• 33:45
  Speaker 4: let's get back on the right foot here and take
• 33:48
  Speaker 4: even just tonight, just win, win the game, to kind
• 33:51
  Speaker 4: of put that in the rearview mirror and not have
• 33:52
  Speaker 4: anything carry over into the second half.
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: Well yeah, and especially I mean, the Cubs open home
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: against the Twins. So the question is, you know, they've
• 33:59
  Speaker 3: been twenty and eight their last month, So the question
• 34:01
  Speaker 3: is how hot are they going to be? Will they continue?
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: You know, five games back, they're right there now and
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: you're aware of them. So I think we're gonna start
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: being aware of what the Cubs are going to do
• 34:10
  Speaker 3: and if they even out or continue this streak either way,
• 34:13
  Speaker 3: the Brewers have to win to keep that because the
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: pressure is on, right, That's right.
• 34:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, totally, I think, I think, and well, and with
• 34:22
  Speaker 4: the trade deadline too. I mean we're talking about obviously
• 34:24
  Speaker 4: what the Birds are going to do. The Coupsan can
• 34:26
  Speaker 4: do something too, so you know, that'll be interesting to watch,
• 34:28
  Speaker 4: and they'll be by the time those two teams meet,
• 34:31
  Speaker 4: you know, they meet twice in three weeks or at
• 34:34
  Speaker 4: twys in two weeks. I think it is back in
• 34:37
  Speaker 4: late August and are coming up in late August in
• 34:39
  Speaker 4: early September, and by that time, you know, what do
• 34:41
  Speaker 4: the Cubs look like? And is their team a little
• 34:44
  Speaker 4: different as far as some trade acquisitions, especially a pitching
• 34:48
  Speaker 4: signe where they've been decimated this year. So we'll have
• 34:50
  Speaker 4: to watch that.
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: We're gonna do some things on the way out here, Hunter.
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: What can the Brewers do to get christ and Yelich
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: going to the break? Obviously had to help him. He's
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: been grinding and grinding and struggling and he's such a
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: big important piece for them. What do you expect to
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: see from him this weekend? And just in the second half.
• 35:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think, you know, taking him out of
• 35:10
  Speaker 4: the lineup is going to do any good. I do
• 35:13
  Speaker 4: think you got to consider taking him out of the
• 35:15
  Speaker 4: top though, Like if you're having a guy that just
• 35:18
  Speaker 4: is not getting on base at the top of your lineup,
• 35:20
  Speaker 4: that's just hurting your lineup. So like, as much as
• 35:23
  Speaker 4: you know we want Yelich near the top, I just
• 35:25
  Speaker 4: don't know if that's you know, that's wise. Is he
• 35:28
  Speaker 4: going to you know, it's you're not gonna bat him seventh,
• 35:31
  Speaker 4: You're not gonna bed him eighth or not. Like I
• 35:33
  Speaker 4: get it, and Pat Murphy is is pretty set in,
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: you know, having him towards the top of the order.
• 35:39
  Speaker 4: But I just I don't know, like if you you
• 35:42
  Speaker 4: have a different guy who's getting on base, I like,
• 35:44
  Speaker 4: you know, Mitchell being at the top, whether it's whether
• 35:47
  Speaker 4: it's lead off, I don't know if it's necessarily laid off.
• 35:49
  Speaker 4: But that two spot, that three, I mean, he's earned
• 35:52
  Speaker 4: being maybe in that top four because of the way
• 35:54
  Speaker 4: he's he's been hitting the ball. So however you want
• 35:58
  Speaker 4: to configure that, though obviously you put Churio in there
• 36:00
  Speaker 4: and Terrang and Contreras, how you can figure that. I mean,
• 36:03
  Speaker 4: I I think you know wisely, especially against me, especially
• 36:09
  Speaker 4: against a lefty. I don't know. Maybe you do put
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: Churio and then Terrang and then Contreras, and maybe Mitchell's
• 36:16
  Speaker 4: your clean up and then Yelich is You're fine. I
• 36:18
  Speaker 4: feel like that might be the best way to configure that,
• 36:21
  Speaker 4: just because I I when Yelich is hitting this way
• 36:24
  Speaker 4: and not doing well, that hurts your lineup if you're
• 36:27
  Speaker 4: not able to get your leadoff guy on base. So
• 36:29
  Speaker 4: and look, it's you know. Terrang has had his down
• 36:32
  Speaker 4: parts this year, though he was pretty good into the
• 36:34
  Speaker 4: All Star break. In Churio it was a little up
• 36:38
  Speaker 4: and down towards the last couple of weeks. Then Contraras
• 36:40
  Speaker 4: did not have a good road trip either. So yeah,
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: I'm interested to see what Yelich does. I'm interested to
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: see if he can turn. He's a big piece to
• 36:48
  Speaker 4: that offense. If you're hitting in the top five of
• 36:49
  Speaker 4: the order and in one of the best teams in baseball,
• 36:52
  Speaker 4: you're obviously a key to the offense. I do think
• 36:54
  Speaker 4: we'll see better stretches from him at some point. Is
• 36:57
  Speaker 4: it right out of the gates, We'll see maybe the
• 36:59
  Speaker 4: rest does them good?
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: Got a preview show tonight before the opener.
• 37:02
  Speaker 4: Hunter, you bet five thirty this evening, Fox Sports nine
• 37:07
  Speaker 4: twenty in Milwaukee, and our social channels might hear from
• 37:10
  Speaker 4: Lance mccullars Junior. Also, we are expecting probably an update
• 37:14
  Speaker 4: on Brandon Woodruff as far as what next steps are
• 37:16
  Speaker 4: for him. He was transferred to sixty dail before the
• 37:19
  Speaker 4: All Star break, but we'll see what the timeline is
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: on him. And then yeah, any other news that we
• 37:25
  Speaker 4: hear as far as Okay, when's Miz going to make
• 37:27
