• 1:31
  Speaker 4: home runs and just we came up five points short.
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: It was great. I think the toughest part was playing defense.

• 2:37
  Speaker 5: thirty Yeah, yeah, we dropping the back show underneath that thing.
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: My guy, hey, big Kevin Match was on our team right,
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: fifty one years old. He was diving everywhere. This guy
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: he made a diving catch. He had to hit the
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: next So you play defense for two minutes and thirty seconds.
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: Then your team comes in and hits and he's coming in.
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: He was he was gas had a good opening round.
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: In the last minute, he popped up six and they
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: caught six, so they got six points. It's kind of
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: changed the whole moment of the game. But I give
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: props to him. He was all over the place.
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: Six pop ups?
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: Do you guys park at you know, the pull power
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: side for a guy and just try and grab.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: No, so it's you go pole power. It's gonna be
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: a foul ball.
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: So you know, if you could picture it like going
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: like this right, so say here's the whole field dimensions,
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: they cut it in like a.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: Piece of it. Okay.
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: Oh if you if I'm going yank left about you know,
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: twenty thirty forty feet to the left of foul pole fair,
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: it's gonna be a foul ball. They don't count those.
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: If you go dead dead center there's smoke stacks, you
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: get double points. So they want you to go directly centered.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Oh so that's where you stand then that's where you're
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: trying to grab something that falls short in center face.
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: Yes, and you got about twenty twenty five yards from
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: the line you can't cross. Okay, So if it's a
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: short pop up, it's not gonna count. You got to
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: keep two feet in like you're playing in football. It's
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: pretty cool.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: That's cool.
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Oh I'm locked in. I'm locked in. It sounds
• 4:05
  Speaker 5: like it's right down my alleys.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: It is. It is.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: That phone call is coming, That phone calls common. All right,
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: let's hit the big leagues right now? What about the
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: Guardian baby. The Milwaukee Brewers just keep stacking up dubs.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: So they had fifty six hits in those three games
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: against the Nationals over the weekend, and they just continue
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: to thrive. They beat Atlanta yesterday three to one. They're
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: seven and three in their last ten. They have a
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: three game lead over the second place Cubs. And we
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: pair these two together, we're talking inn L Central. Those
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: are the two leading the charge. Cubs lost yesterday, Brewers win,
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Cubs loose. We forgot to mention this, I think yesterday,
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: but the Brewers did lose the Mize. It sounds like
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: just two starts. It's got bruised. I think Tibia and
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: then Jackson Cheerio's on the shelf right now. But uh,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: there's other dudes that are now.
• 5:02
  Speaker 5: Yeah, absolutely, go ahead, Nah, I'm with Sky And as
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: you talked about it, I'm glad you led with that.
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: The Misses going down. Maybe Missis started to Jackson Cheerio,
• 5:13
  Speaker 5: he's down. But this is the this is the special power,
• 5:17
  Speaker 5: the superpower of the Milwaukee Brewers is that there's always
• 5:20
  Speaker 5: somebody ready to step up. I mean, South Friedlich has
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: been outstanding, Caleb Durbin, you know, Peralta has been lights out.
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: There's so many guys that when you look around his lineup,
• 5:31
  Speaker 5: it's somebody every single night, right, it's not just one guy,
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: and it's usually a team effort. And I set it off, Aaron,
• 5:36
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna say it now, the Milwaukee Brewers and Pat
• 5:40
  Speaker 5: Murphy are gonna save the game of baseball. Right when
• 5:43
  Speaker 5: we have these gurus stress and ops and creating holes
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: in the swing and creating guys that aren't complete baseball players,
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: the Brewers and Pat Murphy continue to stick to the blueprint, right,
• 5:53
  Speaker 5: and that's the old school blueprint. Average matters. Can you
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: move guys, can you get guys over? Can you manufacture runs?
• 6:00
  Speaker 5: Fifty six hits?
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: Like?
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: That's a fun team to watch if I'm a fan, Right,
• 6:03
  Speaker 5: you know something's gonna happen and they're going to find
• 6:06
  Speaker 5: a way to win baseball games. And it's just, you know,
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: a lot of props to the Brewers for each and
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: every year, no matter who's running the show, they continue
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: to go and get ballplayers, and I think again they're
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: gonna say baseball, this is the brand of baseball we
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: need to celebrate and promote even more.
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: I love everything you said about that. I love everything
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: you said about the Brewers. We've talked about this a
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: little bit before the show, but there's not many big
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: names on this squad. They got some boys that can
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: just play. And the biggest thing that we talked about
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: was they're a unit. They play together. Nobody's trying to
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: top anybody. Nobody cares if they're on for four. This
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: is a team that goes out there and plays the
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: game the way it should be played. Forget about the paperwork.
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: They have a blueprint of how they want to do it,
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: and they're doing it and nobody else is telling them
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: any different. They got a guy coming up there and
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: just doing their job, getting the guy over, mashing the ball.
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: And guess what hittings can pages When you hit, everybody
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: else wants to hit. They want to step up. I
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: want to come to the party. Knock knock, I'm here.
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: The Brewers are here, and they're here to say, Scottie,
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: it's incredible. A bunch of guys that have played before,
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: and nobody's gonna wow you. They just go out and play,
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: and they play as a unit for one thing only
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: as that is to play for each other.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: It's summertime, it's bathing suit time, and it's time to
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: get a better bathing suit liner. It's twenty twenty five crats.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: I would like to feel more comfortable, and I would
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: like to thank Fair Harbor for doing that.
• 7:30
  Speaker 6: It's super easy. Get the Fair Harbor breezon It liner
• 7:33
  Speaker 6: in your shorts. You can go play football on the beach,

• 7:39
  Speaker 6: worry about that crappy liner that other bathing suits have.
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: H It is so comfortable.

  Speaker 1: like what he said, and I'm sorry, Yeah.

  Speaker 5: We cannot skip it because because phrase is right. But
• 8:28
  Speaker 5: Pat Murphy. I played for Pat Murphy, and listen, this
• 8:32
  Speaker 5: is bigger than the players, right. Pat Murphy is a
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: guy who will call you into that that managers that
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: managers all and he's gonna tell you, hey, this is
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: what you do really well, like walk towards and embrace it,
• 8:43
  Speaker 5: step into it. And he gets guys to understand what
• 8:46
  Speaker 5: they do well instead of trying to be somebody that
• 8:48
  Speaker 5: they're not. So I don't mean to interrupt you, Scottie,
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: but we have to give you know, Pat Murphy his flowers. Man,
• 8:54
  Speaker 5: this guy is a leader of men. I've said it before,
• 8:56
  Speaker 5: and he gets the best out of whoever is on
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: that roster.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: Simple mission statement. Actually that relates to what we do.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: Foul territory baseball the way it should be covered, the
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: Milwaukee Brewers baseball, the way it should be played.
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: That's good. Absolutely, it's a T shirt.
• 9:14
  Speaker 5: Hey make sure a foul territory gets a percentage of
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: that T shirt when.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: To ching.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: You, you led me right to what I wanted to
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: ask you. Cam.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: We're loving it. It's fun to watch. It's a great
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: brand of baseball. Can this brand win a World Series
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: title this year and get through a National League gauntlet
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: to make it to the World Series? Do they have
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: enough firepower? When October baseball changes? They string together hits.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: We love it, But then you face the top three
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: starters and the top three relievers for a team, and
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: it gets a little more difficult to string together hits.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: Do you feel like they needed to get a Geno
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: Suarez to bring more pop to the lineup? They've got some,
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: but did they need more pop, more guys that can
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: change the game with one swing? Or can they just
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: rally teams to death in October?
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: Well, I will say this, you name the right guy.
• 10:06
  Speaker 5: I think if there was any guy that would have
• 10:08
  Speaker 5: been fit not only for that clubhouse energy, the togetherness
• 10:12
  Speaker 5: of that team, but that ballpark, it would have been
• 10:14
  Speaker 5: Genos Warres like that would have been the piece that
• 10:16
  Speaker 5: I thought that I think, holy holy crap, it really
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: pushes them over the edge because I do think now
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: after that first series against the Yankees and they proved
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: me wrong. Right that first week it was ugly, but
• 10:28
  Speaker 5: all of a sudden they got guys who are stepping
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: into who they are, right, Guys that know how to
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: get outs, guys that know how to pitch the contact.
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: They played great defense.
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: All we've talked about is how terrible the Yankees have
• 10:38
  Speaker 5: played defense and how it comes back to bite them
• 10:40
  Speaker 5: in the backside, whether it's defensively, running back. They do
• 10:44
  Speaker 5: everything well. They steal bases, they were more athletic teams
• 10:48
  Speaker 5: in the game. They manufactured runs, They catch the ball.
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: They just play a solid brand of baseball. And I
• 10:53
  Speaker 5: will say right now, when you look at the American League,
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: and you said it before, I think the National League
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: is head and he was beyond is you know the
• 11:02
  Speaker 5: American League when you talk about talent, So I do.
• 11:04
  Speaker 5: When I look at this team, I think, you know,
• 11:06
  Speaker 5: you see a lot of close ball games, one in October,
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: and that's what the Brewers do. So I do think
• 11:12
  Speaker 5: they have a winning pedigree. And even though they had
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: a won the World threes, I think they are in
• 11:15
  Speaker 5: the Brewers Golden Area, Golden era, right. They make the
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: playoffs every single year without the big game, big name
• 11:21
  Speaker 5: guys like Fray said, and they just continue to win.
• 11:24
  Speaker 5: So I think this year, with looking at the Dodgers,
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: how you know this, you know disrupted they are, there
• 11:32
  Speaker 5: is a chance for the Brewers to make it run.
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: For sure.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: I'm with you on the National League thing too. I
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: think last year I counted five or six teams that
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: I thought were better than any American League team. And
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: I'm pretty much in the same spot again right now
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: where we stand. Let's get to the Cubs. Though for
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: a moment, we think the Cubs are gonna be okay.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: I mean, obviously they're in a fine spot. They do
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: have what the tide for second or third best record
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: in baseball. They fall yesterday, tough loss for them and
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: the starter who they acquired, Mike Sorok, who goes down.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: He's got shouldered his comfort, he's hitting the injured list.
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: We've had Soroke on the show. Super nice guy. He feels,
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: he said, quote embarrassed tood father because he's two innings
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: into his tenure with the Cubs. There's heat on the
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: Cubs because they didn't pick up another starter, and he
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: gets hurt from the jump. He said he actually had
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: an MRI before he got traded. I don't know if
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: that had to do with any discomfort here or just
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: checking something for medicals. I don't know that part. I
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: wanted more information on. But then but he said he
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: felt fine, and then he goes down pretty quickly with
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: the shoulder injury. So how are we feeling about the
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: cubbies in the rotation there?
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, listen, you always worry about rotational pieces.
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: You always worry about pitching. I mean, guys aren't throwing
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: many innings nowadays, So I mean these starters are you know,
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: it's coming extinct. Some of these guys that don't throw
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: that much, they're got there. They're hoping for five and
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: if you get six, you're clapping your hands all the
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: way to the bank. So yeah, if you're Soroka, you're
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: you're disappointed, you're upset, and you're a guy that's you know,
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: trying to help a team win and get back to
• 13:09
  Speaker 4: the playoffs and make some noise, especially when they don't
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: have that other guy.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: So we know the.
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: Soroka of olden with the with the braves, how good
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: he was and how good he can be. Again, a
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: little disappointing. I still think the Cups still have a
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: good chance of you know, getting back into the division,
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: but wild card for sure. But this is a team
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: that you know, keep plugging along too as well. It's
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: hard to play at Wrigley Field. Maybe knows this is
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: too all too well. You know, the wind's blowing one way,
• 13:35
  Speaker 4: you got to try and hit a ground ball, and
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: that wasn't a ground ball hitter. So that's the biggest
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: issue for a lot of the guys. But yes, I
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: think the Couppies will be just fine.
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: Quick cam quick note here before you jump in. Uh,
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: Mike g one of our favorites in the chat who
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: did not like that they didn't land a big name starter,
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: did point out something that I read about when Soroka
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: was traded there the last few starts that he had
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: a month or so period, his velocity was down a
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: few miles an hour, right, and then he gets me, yeah,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: that might have been a precursor, that might have been
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: why he had the MRI too. And then immediately comes
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: over here and I mean the quote from him was
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: want to go put a little extra on the fastball,
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: and then it grabbed me a little bit and it
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: didn't go away.
• 14:19
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, I'm with you because I think about
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: a guy who's been traded quite often. I don't know
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: the protocol for pictures, but position players we usually don't
• 14:26
  Speaker 5: go through, you know, MRIs or you know, the physicals
• 14:29
  Speaker 5: done like once the season's happened and you made it
• 14:31
  Speaker 5: this far. Teams when they trade for you, they've done
• 14:33
  Speaker 5: their due dilingens and they believe, hey, he's pretty healthy.
• 14:36
  Speaker 5: So for me, the red flag is that you know,
• 14:39
  Speaker 5: we got an MRI before we got traded. Like that
• 14:42
  Speaker 5: for me, when you talk about the Cubs would either signal, hey,
• 14:45
  Speaker 5: go ahead and do that deal, but also maybe go
• 14:47
  Speaker 5: get it an insurance piece just in case, because to me,
• 14:51
  Speaker 5: I know, I haven't heard that much. I don't phrase
• 14:53
  Speaker 5: Mike and touch on it, but usually when you get traded,
• 14:56
  Speaker 5: I'm not used to hearing guys going to get X
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: rays and being checked though over Usually by the time
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: the team that called him made that, do you know
• 15:03
  Speaker 5: it's pending some physicals. But I never actually went through
• 15:06
  Speaker 5: an actual physical in the trade, so I don't know
• 15:08
  Speaker 5: how it works with pitchers and arms, but absolutely for me,
• 15:11
  Speaker 5: if I would have been in that front office, I
• 15:13
  Speaker 5: would have one maybe been thinking, hey, maybe we go
• 15:17
  Speaker 5: try to get somebody else, if that's Joe Ryan or
• 15:19
  Speaker 5: maybe somebody not on that tier. A little insurance will
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: help because when I look at this, you know, this
• 15:24
  Speaker 5: pitching roster right now, I do worry about October. Right Uh,
• 15:27
  Speaker 5: you know, I Monaga is who he is. Matthew Boyd
• 15:30
  Speaker 5: has been great, but after that question mark, question mark,
• 15:34
  Speaker 5: question mark, man, Just to be honest, especially talk about
• 15:36
  Speaker 5: youth pitching in October.
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Merril Kelly was the one for me. If you
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: didn't want to go with the long term guy, that
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: was the one having a good year, great guy, he's
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: nationally tested.
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: Good dude.
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean they they tried, they tried for him.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: They said they just didn't match up. But I'm like,
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: I would have I would have made it match up.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: I want to figured that one out.
• 15:56
  Speaker 5: Absolutely. Yeah, James as him, well, he would have did.
• 16:02
  Speaker 5: AJ Probaly would have help him figure it out.
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: AJ would have been like, oh, he's already on the team.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: I traded for him yesterday. It's just a different mentality.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: So hopefully Soroka is okay, but that's certainly not good news.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: You know, when he just joined the team there and
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: he goes down with the injury. Remember last year the
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: talk was about Jack Flaherty and the Yanks turned him
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: down and then he ended up pitching the rest of
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: the season. So I'm okay with taking the risk, but
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: just make sure that you've got someone else there just
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: in case. Plus for me either way, Soroka wasn't starting
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: a playoff game for me. If anything, I was potentially
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: putting him into the bullpen down the stretch. But we'll
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: see what happens with the cuppies.
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: I love this.
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: I want both of you guys to chime in real quick.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: Let Tommy Fam loose. So Mike Petriello tweeted about him
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: about a day ago, said he's been a dude for
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: six weeks, like huge numbers. He posted the slash line,
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: and he didn't get the deal right, he didn't get traded,
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: So he said, there's still a very funny version of
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: the future. This is Petriello where Fam mashes for August,
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: demands Pittsburgh lease him because he's thirty seven and isn't
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: a long term piece there, and then becomes a hugely
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: desired free agent who ends up hitting homers in the postseason.
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: I know what I'm rooting for That's what he said.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: So remember you can't trade for anyone like him, but
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: if he gets cut, he can get picked up.
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: People jump on him. He's a smart man. As you've
• 17:17
  Speaker 4: gotten older, he's gonna.
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: Take your money and then get moved to the contender,
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: no doubt.
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 17:23
  Speaker 5: And if I'm not mistaken, you know, even for me
• 17:26
  Speaker 5: in twenty seventeen, I was with the Angels and I
• 17:30
  Speaker 5: remember spraining my MCL trying to steal a base and
• 17:35
  Speaker 5: talking to it and it was right at the trade deadline.
• 17:37
  Speaker 5: I ended up not getting traded, and I remember coming
• 17:40
  Speaker 5: back slow after that injury. And I want to say
• 17:45
  Speaker 5: it was waivers. The Astros picked me up on waivers.
• 17:48
  Speaker 5: So everybody will go through waivers after the trade process
• 17:51
  Speaker 5: as well, right, and this matter matter.
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: Is different, Yeah, but so it's different. It was a
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: little different waivers.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: You're right, they still had the waiver trade period, right
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: because they got Berlander.
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: That Yeah, So what happens is, yes, they can.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: Put you on waivers, they don't, but you don't leave
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: right teams claim you. And then if a team claims you,
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: you can come up with a trade with them, and
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: if you don't, you grab the player pack nowadays, and
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: that works. You just can't trade anything. You just have
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: to take on the contract, which for fam won't.
• 18:20
  Speaker 5: Yeah, so right exactly, so there's still a possibility of
• 18:24
  Speaker 5: Tommy fans and Inzubelic content.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: Hey, the Red Sox hit a little attendance mark yesterday
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: at Fenway and they're playing the Royals. It's not like
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: they were playing the Yanks. Thirty seven five eighty five,
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: largest announced crowd since twenty nineteen. That was the announcement. Amazing.
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: You start winning a little little ballgame here and there,
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: going a little run.
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: People talking in the streets. Rebulous's going, who's going to
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: the game?
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: That's right, and I will give them credit.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: And the off season they made some nice pickups led
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: by Garrett Crochet. The criticism is warranted for me at
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: the trade deadline, which we can get into later, because
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: if you really believe in your team, you're gonna invest
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: in something for October. But at least cam the fans
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: are shown back up because attendance was dipping pretty good
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: the last couple of years.
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: There.
• 19:10
  Speaker 5: Well, you know, I'll say this, and I don't think
• 19:13
  Speaker 5: I don't think that, and TIA's laughing. Before I said,
• 19:17
  Speaker 5: and we talk about some fan bases that are gonna
• 19:19
  Speaker 5: always be behind their team, but also fan fairweather at
• 19:22
  Speaker 5: the same time, Let's be honest. We talking about Boston
• 19:24
  Speaker 5: Red Sox fans, We're talking about New York fans. It's
• 19:27
  Speaker 5: a part of it. It's a part of the process.
• 19:29
  Speaker 5: But the one thing that I'm encouraging to see right
• 19:31
  Speaker 5: when we talk about the moves not made, this is
• 19:33
  Speaker 5: a team that I looked at last year when I
• 19:35
  Speaker 5: watched how they played, I went, man, they got some
• 19:37
  Speaker 5: really fun young pieces. They're really athletic. They can really
• 19:40
  Speaker 5: tilt the field, as we used to say when you
• 19:42
  Speaker 5: talk about the athleticism that they have. And then they
• 19:44
  Speaker 5: seem to regress a little bit this past year offensively, right.
• 19:48
  Speaker 5: We know they brought in Garrett Crochet and we were
• 19:50
  Speaker 5: hoping that they did more from a pitching standpoint, but
• 19:54
  Speaker 5: I was a little surprised at the regression that I
• 19:55
  Speaker 5: saw throughout the lineup. But I'm gonna tell you right now,
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: as we talk about moves, I'm a Alex Bregmant Trevor's story.
• 20:02
  Speaker 5: Those are the reasons why the rest are doing what
• 20:04
  Speaker 5: you're doing.
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: We're gonna talk Mookie Betts in a moment, but some
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: other Dodgers news. Max Monts he's back already off the il.
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: Tommy Edmund onto the i L he reaggravated his right
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: ankle injury. Ald Gonzalez with this report. Dave Roberts didn't
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: have a timetable, but said the team will make sure
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: Edmund has enough time so he does not have another setback.
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: Max Montsey, I mean, he's that glue guy.
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: I mean, listen, whenever he's around you, he'll have his
• 20:31
  Speaker 4: struggles here and there. He'll go through stretchers where you like,
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: where'd he go? But when he's hot, he's been with
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: the Dodgers for a while. This is the guy that
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: you want to see in the clubhouse and you want
• 20:40
  Speaker 4: to see him around whether he's doing good or bad.
• 20:42
  Speaker 4: I mean, this is a guy that can actually help
• 20:45
  Speaker 4: a Mookie bet and hey, dog, you know who you are, Like,
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: go play the game, stop worrying about things.
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: So you need a guy like that for a playoff push.
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: For sure, Cam he has quality, AB's he takes pitches.
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: The other thing I've noticed, and obviously this is more
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: eye test. I'm so there's I mean for everything, but
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: I feel like he has big moments when the team
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: doesn't right, like when the team's a little like slow,
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: or they're having a a you know, an off day.
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: It's like one dude walks and then Monty hits to
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: Homer and you're like, oh, months, he's here. Like they're
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: they're timely moments for him.
• 21:15
  Speaker 5: I was gonna say, it's not only the moments, it's
• 21:17
  Speaker 5: the timing in which those moments come and when it's
• 21:20
  Speaker 5: almost like he re energizes that team. And listen, you know,
• 21:23
  Speaker 5: I keep it as simple as this, He's baby Shober, right,
• 21:26
  Speaker 5: the three outcomes. I think that's pretty fair to say.
• 21:29
  Speaker 5: Not quite you know the power guy that Sharby is.
• 21:31
  Speaker 5: But I think he's that guy where, like you said,
• 21:33
  Speaker 5: when you need them most, he always seems to be
• 21:35
  Speaker 5: right there in the mix and he always seems to
• 21:37
  Speaker 5: come up. So this is a guy they desperately need
• 21:39
  Speaker 5: that energy. His character back in that clubhouse, back in
• 21:42
  Speaker 5: the lineup.
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: I like that comp that's good.
• 21:45
  Speaker 5: Yeah, baby Schwarves.
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah scrats.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: There are a lot of people out there that pay
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: rent and they don't get anything for it.

• 22:46
  Speaker 3: Go for it. Hey, Mookie Betts is a superstar.
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: He's on a Hall of Fame pathway, but this is
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: an extremely down season for him, and he's played most
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: of the year. He's got an eighty five OPS plus
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: a three h two on base percentage three fifty five
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: slug the batting average is at two thirty one wins
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: above replacement. Baseball Reference wise, he's won eight, so a
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: sliver under two. Obviously, he's playing shortstop full time for
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: this team. Let's throw the quote up there and then
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: we'll get our former big league hitters to chime in,
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: because Mookie's really good on interviews, of course, and he'll
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: lay it out. So this is from Bill Plunkett in
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: an interview, and he said Mookie quote, I've done everything possible.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: I'm hitting all day, I'm hitting after games in the
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: cage early. I really don't know what else to do.
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: I don't have any answers. I mean, the move to
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: leadoff was obviously not the solution. It's just kind of
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: the same results. Again, I'm out of answers. I've done
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: everything I can possibly do. It's up to God at
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: this point. I mean, both of you guys obviously have
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: been there before him. What should he do? I mean,
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: he's not hurt, right, not hurt enough that he's not
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: playing ball. Everybody's feeling it because it's August. What should
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: he do to try and climb out of this and
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: be the Mookie Bets that we're used to seeing.
• 24:05
  Speaker 5: So I got a couple of things for you. Okay, One,
• 24:07
  Speaker 5: Mookie Bets is gonna be fine and talking and can
• 24:10
  Speaker 5: expound on this. There are guys that when they get
• 24:12
  Speaker 5: their money and they go through the stretch that Mookie
• 24:15
  Speaker 5: Bets had, they find a way to my toe, my
• 24:19
  Speaker 5: lower back, my neck, my neck and my back just
• 24:22
  Speaker 5: gonna find a way to miss some time. Mookie Bets
• 24:25
  Speaker 5: is gonna get rewarded when the Dodgers need him most
• 24:27
  Speaker 5: because he's just continued to grind this thing out, continue
• 24:30
  Speaker 5: to try to push through it, continue to try to
• 24:31
  Speaker 5: figure this thing out. But I'm gonna tell you right now,
• 24:34
  Speaker 5: if you want to fix Mookie Bets, and I said
• 24:35
  Speaker 5: this last year, and you can go back to last year,
• 24:38
  Speaker 5: not the best Mookie Bets offensive season. I love Dave Roberts.
• 24:42
  Speaker 5: I've said it before, he was one of my mentors.
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: Put the man back in right field. I get it.
• 24:47
  Speaker 5: He's one of the best athletes that we've seen. Pound
• 24:49
  Speaker 5: for pound. You talk about the size of the stature,
• 24:51
  Speaker 5: not the biggest guy. He can do anything on the
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: baseball field, and I get it. Put the man in the
• 24:56
  Speaker 5: right field where he can be relaxed, he can be chilled,
• 24:59
  Speaker 5: he can go get the ball and like that's where
• 25:01
  Speaker 5: he's comfortable. I'll remember, you know, moving for the first
• 25:04
  Speaker 5: time of my career in like eight or nine years,
• 25:06
  Speaker 5: getting traded at Anaheim, going to the play left field,
• 25:08
  Speaker 5: and they was like, hey, Cam, we're gonna trade to
• 25:10
  Speaker 5: play left. Help Mike try it out and left. It's
• 25:11
  Speaker 5: a big left field. Oh, no problem, no worries. I
• 25:13
  Speaker 5: got it. I'm an athlete. I can do it. It
• 25:15
  Speaker 5: was hard for me to transition the footwork the way
• 25:18
  Speaker 5: my brain had to function.
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: It was different.
• 25:20
  Speaker 5: It kind of affected me, I feel offensively, and I
• 25:23
  Speaker 5: think right now we've seen it the last two years,
• 25:26
  Speaker 5: Mookie Betts is a special type of talent. Yes, he
• 25:28
  Speaker 5: can play short, but I think his best position is
• 25:31
  Speaker 5: out there in the grass, the last line of defense,
• 25:34
  Speaker 5: making plays like he does best, and it takes something
• 25:36
  Speaker 5: off of you mentally at the dish. So for me,
• 25:40
  Speaker 5: put him back and right, let somebody else play short,
• 25:42
  Speaker 5: and let him relax and just worry about hitting. That's
• 25:45
  Speaker 5: my opinion.
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: I think everything you said was spot on. I think
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: it was perfectly said.
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: I remember when I first came up, excuse me, I
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: played five or six different positions and Eric Davis came
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: to me and said, listen, the great mister Red, love him,
• 26:00
  Speaker 4: love him to death, still talk to him. He said, phrase,
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: we need to find a spot for you, brother. There's
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: too much going left field, going to third base, playing first,
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: playing right field, even a little shortstop. I said, no, man,
• 26:11
  Speaker 4: I want to do what I want, you know, for
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: the team. Man, I don't care. And I was trying
• 26:14
  Speaker 4: to get to the big leagues and an adventure.
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: I got there. The first year.
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: I still did everything, but once I settled down to
• 26:19
  Speaker 4: that position, I didn't need five gloves. You know, I
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: worried about one position. I worried about third base, and
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: that was it. That was my spot. And I'm not
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: saying Mookie can't do it, but again, I think right
• 26:32
  Speaker 4: field is where he needs to be. You get out
• 26:34
  Speaker 4: there in the outfield, Kim. You understand you can talk
• 26:37
  Speaker 4: to yourself. You know, you can talk to whatever it is.
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: You have your space and your moment. Now, with that
• 26:42
  Speaker 4: being said, I was listening to some of the quotes
• 26:45
  Speaker 4: he said. There's a lot to unfold here, what he's
• 26:47
  Speaker 4: going through. There is a lot circulating in his mind.
• 26:49
  Speaker 4: It's something we've never heard him talk about it sounds
• 26:54
  Speaker 4: like like me at the end of my career. If
• 26:56
  Speaker 4: you want me personally, at the end of my career,
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: I'm trying to figure everything out instead of just going
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: up there and hitting. If I'm him, throw everything out
• 27:02
  Speaker 4: the window, come to the field, get your early hitting
• 27:06
  Speaker 4: in without thinking about anything else. Just get loose, get
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: the blood flow, stretch, and just go. Who cares who's
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: on the mound. You know, they throw fastball. The ball's
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: gonna move one way or another. It's baseball at the
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: end of the day. What did we do as kids.
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: We grabbed the bat and we said, come on, bring it,
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: let's go. And I think that's the mentality needs to have,
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: not worrying about oh my god, you know, my swing
• 27:27
  Speaker 4: speed's not there. Yeah, as you get older, it's not
• 27:29
  Speaker 4: always going to be there.
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: I get it.
• 27:31
  Speaker 4: You lost a bunch of pounds, you know, during when
• 27:33
  Speaker 4: you got sick and stuff. You'll gain that back after
• 27:36
  Speaker 4: the offseason. You'll be just fine.
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 27:38
  Speaker 5: And I want to add to that. Todd makes a
• 27:40
  Speaker 5: great point. So you add switching positions, and you talk
• 27:43
  Speaker 5: about a guy who lost a ton of weight who
• 27:45
  Speaker 5: can't afford to lose that type of weight. Even though
• 27:48
  Speaker 5: you gain it back fast, doesn't mean you feel as strong,
• 27:50
  Speaker 5: doesn't mean you feel the same. Right, He went through
• 27:53
  Speaker 5: something serious in spring training, so I think for me
• 27:55
  Speaker 5: even more reason to just you know, put him out there. Right.
• 27:58
  Speaker 5: He knows, right, you know how much extra work he
• 28:00
  Speaker 5: has to do every day, and he has been doing
• 28:02
  Speaker 5: every day since last year, trying to learn short, trying
• 28:04
  Speaker 5: to learn short, like, there's so much extra work and
• 28:08
  Speaker 5: extra ground balls and just mental stress that goes into
• 28:11
  Speaker 5: also knowing that I lost a ton of weight in
• 28:13
  Speaker 5: the beginning of the season, like not feeling like myself.
• 28:15
  Speaker 5: I think the best way to clear his head let
• 28:17
  Speaker 5: him go play a week or two out there in
• 28:19
  Speaker 5: outfield and just go hit, like Ty said, And then
• 28:22
  Speaker 5: also too, maybe backing off of the extra stuff. Right,
• 28:25
  Speaker 5: it's a long season. We know Mookie cares so much,
• 28:28
  Speaker 5: we know he's one of the professionals in our game.
• 28:31
  Speaker 5: But I think there's a such thing as maybe less
• 28:34
  Speaker 5: is more right now, So like Ty said, coming in,
• 28:36
  Speaker 5: showing up, eating, doing your treatment, your you know whatever,
• 28:39
  Speaker 5: your massage, like backing off the mental part of it, right,
• 28:43
  Speaker 5: and not being so stressed and just letting the kind
• 28:45
  Speaker 5: of game unfold, I think will help mooki Bets a time.
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: I'm with you on this one. Also, because he's a
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: few months from turning thirty three years.
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: Old, things change. It's a little tougher about it.
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: Back right, it looks like the game comes so easy
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: to him in right field, and he's done a really
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: nice job of picking up shortstop in his early thirties.
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: But that's a tough position.
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: The question, of course you're gonna get is who's playing
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: shortstop for the Dodgers. My thing is, I'm not necessarily
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: saying Mookie has to play there for the rest of
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: the season, But if you want to try and switch
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: something else up, I'm with Cam, like, put him out
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: there for a couple weeks and see what happens. I know,
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: Edmund's on the shelf, So who's playing shortstop? Miguel Rojas
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: will play some short stop? You'll you'll eat the position
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: on offense a little bit. I know, you know, migiy
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: Roe is not the best offensive player anymore. But if
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: it's going to make Mookie Bets an offensive player, and
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: if it's gonna help him find himself a little bit,
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: screw it. They've tried other things. It's not working right,
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: and he's trying, like he mentioned in Ken Rosenthalt, a
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: great story a couple of months ago, to figure out
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: the bat speed situation because it's towards the bottom of
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: the league. Like, let's let's just do the right field
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: back to the good old days for a couple of
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: weeks and see if that helps him find his back.
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: Because Cam now is this team gonna win the division?
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: Not necessarily, but they're gonna make the playoffs, and if
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: they're gonna win the World Series, they need above average
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: bat Mookie bats.
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: Do they need him to be the one.
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: Fifty ops plus guy where he's a super super starting. Oh,
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: not necessarily, but he's got to be better than this
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: version in my mind for them to win a World
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: Series because the National League is stacked.
• 30:21
  Speaker 5: One hundred percent. And I've said this I think the
• 30:24
  Speaker 5: last time I was on the show. At the end
• 30:25
  Speaker 5: of the day, I truly don't believe the Dodgers care
• 30:27
  Speaker 5: about winning the division. I think the Dodgers have tasted
• 30:30
  Speaker 5: what it is to be champions, and that's what they
• 30:32
  Speaker 5: look for, is to be champions once again. And that
• 30:35
  Speaker 5: adds your point about Mickey rohas I'll tell you what
• 30:36
  Speaker 5: he won't do. He won't cost you any runs at short.
• 30:39
  Speaker 5: So while you might, you know, lose something offensively, he's
• 30:42
  Speaker 5: gonna save you runs. You better believe that, right. So
• 30:45
  Speaker 5: for me, you and then you put Mookie back and right,
• 30:47
  Speaker 5: so all of a sudden, it's not like you're putting
• 30:49
  Speaker 5: the worse defense out there. You actually get stronger on
• 30:52
  Speaker 5: defense with Mickey at short. So for me, there's some
• 30:56
  Speaker 5: some give giveaways and takeaways. But I think at the
• 30:59
  Speaker 5: end of the big scheme of things, I think personally it's
• 31:02
  Speaker 5: worth the shot.
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, some Alex free Freeland's name comes up, the youngster, Yeah,
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: I mean play a little short.
• 31:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah exactly. I just I like, yeah, for real.
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: Man, chance, what else do you have to lose? You know, honestly,
• 31:26
  Speaker 4: you got a couple of guys on the shelf. Bring
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: him up. See what the See what happens? Exactly, See
• 31:33
  Speaker 4: what happens? I mean, what's the worst that can happen?
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: He goes out and bangs, and then you have a
• 31:37
  Speaker 4: tough decision to make.
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: It worked for them last year they won the World Series.
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: Who was in right field?
• 31:43
  Speaker 5: Exactly exactly. I just I'm just saying well, I mean,
• 31:46
  Speaker 5: I don't I don't get I listen. I've never I
• 31:49
  Speaker 5: was never a fan. Going back to last year, this
• 31:51
  Speaker 5: whole move Mookie to Short, I just you know, and
• 31:54
  Speaker 5: and again last year, I think his offense suffered as well,
• 31:57
  Speaker 5: Like you know, he's special and he's going to have
• 31:59
  Speaker 5: his I just think his offense has suffered since they
• 32:02
  Speaker 5: try to make that move. I really do. And on
• 32:04
  Speaker 5: top of everything that he's went through prior at the
• 32:06
  Speaker 5: beginning of the season, Like, I mean, it's a lot, man,
• 32:10
  Speaker 5: this you know, the season is strenuous, it's a lot
• 32:12
  Speaker 5: on you mentally, and to go through all that from
• 32:14
  Speaker 5: you know, a health standpoint. Mookie's not a big dude
• 32:16
  Speaker 5: to begin with, right, So all the extra work like
• 32:20
  Speaker 5: that's taxing, that's draining, whether you're doing the in LA
• 32:22
  Speaker 5: and it's nice and cool, or you're doing on the
• 32:24
  Speaker 5: road and it's human as hell and you're using energy
• 32:27
  Speaker 5: then and then you're doing it and then you're hitting
• 32:28
  Speaker 5: extra like he's probably tired as hell right now, and
• 32:31
  Speaker 5: he weighs a buck fifty like you got to you
• 32:33
  Speaker 5: know what I mean, It's it's a lot going on
• 32:34
  Speaker 5: right now for MOOKI and I just think you got
• 32:36
  Speaker 5: to get back to trying to put him in situations
• 32:39
  Speaker 5: where he can be successful. And I think that starts
• 32:41
  Speaker 5: with hell even if it's some DH days and right field,
• 32:44
  Speaker 5: Like get him off his feet and let him just
• 32:46
  Speaker 5: worry about, you know, going to catch the ball and
• 32:48
  Speaker 5: throwing it in and hitt and the cut off. It's
• 32:50
  Speaker 5: a lot more simple out there.
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: It's a good call. I like it.
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: Will they do it, I don't know, But if they're
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: saying they've tried many other things, they have not tried
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: this yet. You've got time in the season to give
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: it a shot. If this team's so focused on making
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: sure everything's as perfect as possible for October, you got
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: to get that bat in gear. They talk about this
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: several times a week on a show called Dodger's Territories.
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: To make sure you check it out, give them some
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: love to Clint and Alana part of the FT network.
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: Go give their channel a little sub and check out
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: their pot if you're on the go wherever you get
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: your podcasts.
• 33:23
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that's what he said.
• 33:24
  Speaker 3: That's what he said.
• 33:27
  Speaker 5: That's what he said, that's what he said.
• 33:31
  Speaker 3: This is fresh.
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: This just came in during the show Jose Alvarado posting
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: on his social media page a little note about his
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: ped suspension. May eighteenth was a very difficult day for me.
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: That day MLB announced the positive result of a doping
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: test conducted in March of twenty five. I'm fully aware
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: that using prohibited substances is wrong, and I would never
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: intend to do so because I've always had great respect
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: for the game, my organization, my teammates, and the fans,
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: all of whom I want to offer my sincere apologies.
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: I made a mistake, and therefore I have faced the
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: consequences set forth by MLB. Going forward, my focus is
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: on working hard to help the team win once again.
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: I offer my deepest apologies to the Phillies organization, teammates, family, country,
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: City of Philly. Fans have always supported me, especially the
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: children and young people. There's always a lesson to be
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: learned in every mistake, and he said, I thank God
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: forgive me the strength overcome the situation. I'm glad to
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: be back and ready to support the team.
• 34:21
  Speaker 7: Hey, we often get these notes full of I did this,
• 34:26
  Speaker 7: I got that, I did this, it was that it oops,
• 34:29
  Speaker 7: I did this was just I did it.
• 34:31
  Speaker 3: Sorry, and now I'm.
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: Back and listen. At the end of the day, this
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: is what you want to hear.
• 34:36
  Speaker 4: You're still it's still frowned upon, You're still not happy
• 34:40
  Speaker 4: that the person did do it. But when you come
• 34:43
  Speaker 4: out and openly say I did it, people tend to
• 34:46
  Speaker 4: move on a little quicker. In my opinion, you know,
• 34:48
  Speaker 4: it'll never be forgotten.
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: Don't get me wrong.
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: He made a really bad mistake and you know a
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: lot of people are doing it and for him, you know,
• 34:57
  Speaker 4: you give him credit, you know, as much credit as
• 34:59
  Speaker 4: you want to give a person for that. But again,
• 35:01
  Speaker 4: he's trying to move on from the situation, and it's
• 35:04
  Speaker 4: just be realistic and be be you know, a true
• 35:07
  Speaker 4: human being.
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: That's all. Cam.
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: What'd you take from this? What I'm trying to say is,
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: I mean a lot of times players will come out
• 35:13
  Speaker 3: and they'll.
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: Be like, oh side and yeah, but wait, okay, right,
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: Like so if you think it's a weak apology, like
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: what else is he supposed to say?
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: Trust me, I'm I'm all okay.
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: You know what sham is when someone comes out and
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: they're like, oh, I was taking this and then that it's.
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: Like, yo, you're in the big leagues, right, right, I.
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: Got this that popped up, and and it's like for
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: most of the cases. I know there's a few that
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: are disputed and that's a separate case, right, But for
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: most of them, cam like, you got caught, You're coming back.
• 35:45
  Speaker 3: You say, oops, got caught, busted. Sorry, that's exactly what
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: he put here.
• 35:51
  Speaker 5: Well, okay, I'm gonna need you to bring it back
• 35:54
  Speaker 5: up because I love this show Reacher. Right, you guys
• 35:57
  Speaker 5: have heard a Reacher, great show, big slow dude going
• 35:59
  Speaker 5: around people. He always says, the details matter. If I'm
• 36:03
  Speaker 5: looking at that, right, I didn't like, I'm fully aware
• 36:06
  Speaker 5: that using prohibit substance is wrong and I would never
• 36:09
  Speaker 5: intend to do I would never intend to do so
• 36:12
  Speaker 5: because I have always had hold on like this min
• 36:15
  Speaker 5: That's where I get confused. I would never intend to
• 36:17
  Speaker 5: do so. Did you know you did it? Or did
• 36:19
  Speaker 5: you not know you did it? So that's where I
• 36:21
  Speaker 5: think it is a little I want to say weak,
• 36:23
  Speaker 5: because it's like he took accountability, but Conda in there
• 36:26
  Speaker 5: it sounds like he's like, I didn't know, I would
• 36:30
  Speaker 5: never knowingly take I'm a little confused with the apology.
• 36:33
  Speaker 5: So I get the people who might say it's a
• 36:35
  Speaker 5: little weak. I won't use the word weak, but it
• 36:38
  Speaker 5: just it's a little confusing for me because I want
• 36:40
  Speaker 5: to know, are you taking accountability or are you for
• 36:43
  Speaker 5: for taking something that you didn't know you took, or
• 36:45
  Speaker 5: you taking accountability for taking something that you knew was banned.
• 36:48
  Speaker 5: That's my issue with it.
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: That's fair, that's fair.
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: I'll take the part that part and and you know
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: what that part is. That's a little that's a little
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: lawyer help, because of course it's all legal substance, so
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: you don't want a criminal case and say, yeah, I
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: took it.
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: I bought it from the guy next door.
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: His name is whatever. If the Feds want to go
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: check him out. So there's a legal component. So so
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: you're right, it's not a ten out of ten apology note.
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: But that's what I'm saying, come up with some some
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: He certainly wasn't worse. You're right, though, I'm not giving
• 37:27
  Speaker 3: a ten out for too long.
• 37:28
  Speaker 4: Where I'm just you're kind of over it at the
• 37:31
  Speaker 4: end of the day, if you want the truth, yeah
• 37:33
  Speaker 4: said for baseball, it's said that he did it. I
• 37:35
  Speaker 4: think it's frowned upon. I I don't like it at all.
• 37:38
  Speaker 4: Don't get me wrong, but you see it happened too
• 37:41
  Speaker 4: many times, like whatever, you know, it is what it is.
• 37:45
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you're right, and what you're young with you. I
• 37:46
  Speaker 5: give him credit because, like you said, apologies a little
• 37:49
  Speaker 5: bit late, but he but he may not.
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: Like, hey, I'm coming back so.
• 37:56
  Speaker 5: And he and he kind of admitted to it. So
• 37:59
  Speaker 5: I'm like, you know, the details matter though, so make
• 38:02
  Speaker 5: sure we reading that statement. I'm like, did you know
• 38:06
  Speaker 5: or did you not? No, but you're sorry regardless, Okay,
• 38:09
  Speaker 5: he said sorry, So I guess I'll.
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: Just take it for what it's worth whatever.
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: AJM on my phone right now in Arena Club and
• 38:15

• 38:46
  Speaker 5: Get a grill. I want a grill, Scott, give me
• 38:48
  Speaker 5: the holy grill. You do it.
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: To do that, you must get yourself a slab pack
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: in Arena Club or if you want to get it
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: for a friend, you can do that too. And right
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: now you can get twenty percent off your first slab
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: pack or your first card.
• 39:01
  Speaker 3: Purchase for going on there.
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: And just like, hey, I want a specific card, I
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: find it there on a grab it for my showroom
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: Arena Club dot com, slash foul and use the code.
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: Fo U L Well. I think it becomes a like
• 39:14
  Speaker 3: a legal thing because yeah, I'm taking something illegal.
• 39:17
  Speaker 4: I'm fully aware they using Barna substance is wrong, and
• 39:19
  Speaker 4: I would never intend to do so because I've already
• 39:21
  Speaker 4: had grace str for the game. Then the next sense,
• 39:23
  Speaker 4: I made a mistake and therefore I face the con
• 39:26
  Speaker 4: So yeah, I get you, understandable, understandable, Yeah good, all good,
• 39:34
  Speaker 4: all good.
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: You said your piece. Don't do any more, move on
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: and try and be better. There you go.
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: Maybe my expectations in my bar is so low now
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: because the ones that come out, that come up with
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: the elaborate story is just tough. Again, there's a couple
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: to look up, right, Like look up Chris Colobello's story.
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: There's a whole case to that. But with most of
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: the other ones, it's tough.
• 39:58
  Speaker 5: Hey, listen, I'll tell you my I had. I had one.
• 40:01
  Speaker 5: I don't know if you have time for real quick.
• 40:02
  Speaker 5: I had one in San Diego. I've been prescribed. I
• 40:05
  Speaker 5: had a TVUI for adderall since twenty eleven. Well, one
• 40:10
  Speaker 5: year Major League Baseball was trying to win guys off
• 40:13
  Speaker 5: of adderall and they put me on something else that
• 40:15
  Speaker 5: had me feeling like lethargic, I mean like a zombie.
• 40:18
  Speaker 5: So I went to our team doctor that I have
• 40:20
  Speaker 5: to go through to get a meeting with the doctor
• 40:22
  Speaker 5: who writes my prescription. He made the he made me
• 40:25
  Speaker 5: an appointment with the doctor. We went to him. Hey,
• 40:27
  Speaker 5: this medicine, it's making me lethargy. Anyway I can get
• 40:30
  Speaker 5: back on my adderall. Hey, sure, here you go. Here's
• 40:34
  Speaker 5: a prescription. Went got my prescription. Feel the drug tests
• 40:37
  Speaker 5: come in. I see him if you have a a
• 40:40
  Speaker 5: t WI or something, and you have a drug test
• 40:43
  Speaker 5: you're supposed to have in your system when you take
• 40:44
  Speaker 5: the test. So what do I do, Oh, drug test
• 40:47
  Speaker 5: is here, Let me take my medicine. So when I
• 40:49
  Speaker 5: take my test, it'll show up, and it'll show up
• 40:51
  Speaker 5: that I took my medicine, because they'll take it from
• 40:54
  Speaker 5: you if you're not taking it. So I did everything
• 40:56
  Speaker 5: that I thought was right. Come to find out, I
• 40:58
  Speaker 5: get a letter that says, hey, I, you violated the
• 41:02
  Speaker 5: band's substance agreement. And I went through a whole process
• 41:05
  Speaker 5: going hey, the team doctor you know, gave me the
• 41:09
  Speaker 5: consultation to the other guy, he wrote the prescription. How
• 41:12
  Speaker 5: am I in trouble? And then it was one of
• 41:14
  Speaker 5: those things where like, hey, you can fight it, but
• 41:15
  Speaker 5: if you fight it, you're gonna get eighty games if
• 41:18
  Speaker 5: you lose, or you can just take this. I think
• 41:20
  Speaker 5: they gave me like fifteen to twenty. It was something crazy,
• 41:22
  Speaker 5: and I just had to wear it because I didn't
• 41:24
  Speaker 5: want to take a chance on getting eighty just because
• 41:27
  Speaker 5: they might do it. So there are situations where it
• 41:29
  Speaker 5: makes sense, but this just this is a little different.
• 41:33
  Speaker 3: That's crazy. That is crazy.
• 41:36
  Speaker 5: So when I look back at it, I should have
• 41:38
  Speaker 5: When I look back at it, I should have final
• 41:40
  Speaker 5: grievance against either the team or doctor when I look
• 41:44
  Speaker 5: back at it, But I just I was like, yo,
• 41:46
  Speaker 5: last now and again too, how embarrassing were you have
• 41:49
  Speaker 5: to go through scrutiny and people call on your cheater
• 41:51
  Speaker 5: and it's like, dude, I actually went through every step
• 41:54
  Speaker 5: that I was supposed to and nobody can help me out.
• 41:57
  Speaker 5: Mob didn't want to help me out. It was like, well,
• 41:59
  Speaker 5: we've already put it out there, so you can either
• 42:01
  Speaker 5: peel it or because we believe you they actually like
• 42:04
  Speaker 5: or because we believe you, you can just do the twenty
• 42:06
  Speaker 5: games or fifteen or whatever it was. And I was like, well, hell,
• 42:09
  Speaker 5: all right, and I'll just do the fifteen. But y'all,
• 42:11
  Speaker 5: but y'all screwed up. But I should have filed a griements.
• 42:13
  Speaker 5: I should have, you know, went to my my representation
• 42:16
  Speaker 5: and did a little more. But with that said, that
• 42:18
  Speaker 5: to me, a story that makes sense, that Chris Calabello,
• 42:21
  Speaker 5: it makes sense. Certain things make sense, but those details
• 42:25
  Speaker 5: like a little great for me.
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and the button it up for some reason.
• 42:31
  Speaker 4: The drug tester came in the day after, you know,
• 42:33
  Speaker 4: a couple of days after your right, right, like.
• 42:39
  Speaker 5: Like crazy, Yeah, So it was again it was looking
• 42:43
  Speaker 5: back on it, it was like, Yo, the whole situation was
• 42:45
  Speaker 5: a little shady, man.
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: It was.
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: How often does it, dude get tested per year?
• 42:53
  Speaker 4: Is, well, it just depends. One year, I didn't get
• 42:55
  Speaker 4: tested at all. Another year, I've had it four times.
• 42:57
  Speaker 4: I mean yours I want five years, six years without
• 43:01
  Speaker 4: getting it in the off season, and then I had
• 43:03
  Speaker 4: it twice in the off season.
• 43:04
  Speaker 3: So it's random, I guess.
• 43:06
  Speaker 4: So ish random is Ryan Braun had to get it
• 43:12
  Speaker 4: all day every day.
• 43:13
  Speaker 3: So separate, separate story there, but still.
• 43:16
  Speaker 4: It's supposed to still be random. But the guy, you know,
• 43:18
  Speaker 4: I'm not trying to take sides.
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: I'm just saying, yeah, well and once you run into well,
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: once you get in trouble though, then it does amp up, right,
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: I guess.
• 43:27
  Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, yep, yep, yeah, yeah.
• 43:30
  Speaker 5: I think I had to do the same thing. I
• 43:31
  Speaker 5: think I had to do like to in the off season,
• 43:34
  Speaker 5: which is fine. But again I was like, but it
• 43:37
  Speaker 5: finally was like, hey, like am I approach and I
• 43:39
  Speaker 5: had to get so what it was they told me
• 43:42
  Speaker 5: I had to get reapproved. So even though I went
• 43:44
  Speaker 5: through the process the right way, I was supposed to
• 43:47
  Speaker 5: somehow go get reapproved for that my old prescription through MLB.
• 43:52
  Speaker 5: So once I got once they approved me for one,
• 43:54
  Speaker 5: you gotta go get reapproved every time. It was something
• 43:56
  Speaker 5: I get. I didn't know, but again, listen to my
• 43:58
  Speaker 5: explanation and then read the one.
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: Just read it.
• 44:00
  Speaker 5: It's like, let's just there's no there's no there's no
• 44:04
  Speaker 5: gray area in my stories.
• 44:05
  Speaker 3: It's like, this is what happens exactly get.
• 44:07
  Speaker 5: I guess he took accountability in his own way and
• 44:10
  Speaker 5: like prey saying, we move on and it is what
• 44:12
  Speaker 5: it is. We wiped our hands with it.
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: We got two minutes, so I got one follow up
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: for you, cam. So then what was the aftermath? Like
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: did media ask you questions? And were you only allowed
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: to say certain things while you were playing? You know
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: now it doesn't matter you played. It's a while ago.
• 44:27
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 44:27
  Speaker 5: No, I'm pretty sure I said exactly what I just said. Now,
• 44:30
  Speaker 5: I'm pretty sure that I told him the whole story. Like, listen,
• 44:32
  Speaker 5: this is what happened, like spring training, they switched my medicine.
• 44:36
  Speaker 5: It had me feeling crazy and I wanted to go
• 44:39
  Speaker 5: get it changed. The doctor made an appointment to the
• 44:41
  Speaker 5: other doctor. The other doctor was like, Hey, yeah, they
• 44:44
  Speaker 5: trying to get us get you guys to stop taking it.
• 44:46
  Speaker 5: So here's your old prescription back. Hey, thanks doc, appreciate
• 44:49
  Speaker 5: you go get it. It's like but and then that
• 44:52
  Speaker 5: was it. It was just like and I think the
• 44:54
  Speaker 5: fact that again, if you look at my I think
• 44:56
  Speaker 5: I did twenty games. I think it says I think
• 44:59
  Speaker 5: it's he says it all like, you know, these guys
• 45:01
  Speaker 5: are getting eighty games. If you did it, you get eighty.
• 45:03
  Speaker 5: Like they're like, damn, Cam, this makes sense, so we'll
• 45:06
  Speaker 5: just give you twenty Like damn, you know what I mean. Like,
• 45:09
  Speaker 5: So that's what sucked about it to me. But it's
• 45:12
  Speaker 5: one of those things I was. I was just one
• 45:13
  Speaker 5: of those guys where, you know, the people that I
• 45:15
  Speaker 5: know knew I was in the right and knew I
• 45:17
  Speaker 5: was in the right. The organization was behind me. They
• 45:20
  Speaker 5: felt bad at the time. So again, maybe they did.
• 45:23
  Speaker 5: Frase had that look in his face. Maybe they felt bad.
• 45:25
  Speaker 5: I don't know, but it was it was a weird situation, man.
• 45:29
  Speaker 5: It was a weird situation that cost me some money
• 45:32
  Speaker 5: at the end of the day. And again I wish
• 45:35
  Speaker 5: I would handle it differently as far as maybe find agreements,
• 45:37
  Speaker 5: but I wasn't thinking about it. I was just happy
• 45:39
  Speaker 5: that I didn't get the eighty games, and they kind
• 45:40
  Speaker 5: of believe me, you know what I mean. I was
• 45:42
  Speaker 5: more happy about that, and they like, damn, this makes sense,
• 45:45
  Speaker 5: this could have happened. So I just kind of took
• 45:47
  Speaker 5: it for what it was worth it, like like Frasea
• 45:48
  Speaker 5: had just wipe my hands and try to get back
• 45:50
  Speaker 5: on the field.
• 45:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: Well, as far as I know, like the steroidy type
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: stuff is the ped eighty, right, and then you've.
• 45:57
  Speaker 3: Got like the the where Chris Davis had it too, right, Yeah.
• 46:03
  Speaker 5: I guess what. Also, I had a therapeutic conxemption. He
• 46:06
  Speaker 5: didn't have one. He was just taking out to take it.
• 46:09
  Speaker 5: I can't do that, right, A different different scenario.
• 46:16
  Speaker 4: I didn't play in it, but Greenies were everywhere. They
• 46:19
  Speaker 4: call him Greenies. Don't tell you. You just take them whenever
• 46:22
  Speaker 4: you need it to and everybody's like, oh, yeah, whatever,
• 46:24
  Speaker 4: that's what baseball players do.
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: And then you get.
• 46:27
  Speaker 5: Get the coffee on the list.
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: When you had a t UI for the whole thing.
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: It's just it's just it's ridiculous.
• 46:34
  Speaker 3: That's crazy though, yeah, because I feel like you got.
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 46:41
  Speaker 3: But anyway, big difference.
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: You get this note coming out and it's like, hey,
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: I did it, but I also don't want to get
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: in trouble, So here's like what was typed up for me?
• 46:52
  Speaker 3: And I'll be back, But also you want but have
• 46:54
  Speaker 3: fun with Duran.
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: Let's go, let's slap all right. First off, we do
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: have a postgame show later. Uh, Dodger's Territory. Should make
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: sure you check it out. We'll shout out to those guys,
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: did you And then let's get to Liam Hendricks real
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: quick while you have two minutes. It sounded like the
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: Red Sox were saying he was done, and then he
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: spoke and basically said that the Alex Cora update was
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: a slip of the tongue. He said, it's way too
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: early to say I won't pitch this year. If everything
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: goes well, I will definitely pitch this year as long
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: as we keep moving in that direction.
• 47:37
  Speaker 3: He said.
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: He spoke to Core about it and it was just
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: a slip of the tongue. Cora apologized, and they're moving on.
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: They said it was a misdiagnosis and he was frustrated
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: with the Red Sox and how it was communicated with.
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: Him understandably, I mean, the guy, the guy's been through
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: a lot. Yeah. Yeah, I would be frustrated too.
• 47:55
  Speaker 4: I love the apology from your you know, from Kor
• 47:58
  Speaker 4: and I love that they say they're moving on. Let's
• 48:00
  Speaker 4: not harp on it. He's old enough, he understands who
• 48:03
  Speaker 4: he is and who he's.
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: Going to be. He wants to get back out there.
• 48:06
  Speaker 4: He's not just gonna, you know, well, I gotta do this,
• 48:09
  Speaker 4: and if there's an opportunity for him to get out
• 48:11
  Speaker 4: there and help a team win, he's gonna want to
• 48:14
  Speaker 4: do it.
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: And it's been a pretty good bullpen this year. They
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: didn't really, I mean, besides Steven Mattz had many reinforcements
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: to it if they make the playoffs. Also, cam Liam
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: Hendrix is not going to hold back. He has always
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: been outspoken. He'll tell you what's on his mind. We
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: love it.
• 48:32
  Speaker 5: Look, we always talk about what we need more in
• 48:34
  Speaker 5: the game. And he's a guy who he's going to
• 48:36
  Speaker 5: create that fun SoundBite that fans want to hear, and
• 48:38
  Speaker 5: he's gonna create a little buzz, and we need more honest,
• 48:41
  Speaker 5: transparent guys like Lim. And we know also, like you said,
• 48:44
  Speaker 5: he's one of the most fierce competitors in our game,
• 48:46
  Speaker 5: so we know he's not just trying to sit around
• 48:48
  Speaker 5: a collect the check. He's trying to go out there
• 48:49
  Speaker 5: and earn it and help somebody win ball games.
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: And here's my thing. If you want to piss any
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: player off, you say that he's done for the year.
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: When he doesn't, I don't care who you are. They're
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: going to talk and be like, I'm not done for
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: the year. I didn't say I was done for this.
• 49:05
  Speaker 5: I'll show you.
• 49:06
  Speaker 3: You're the quietest guy on the team.
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: Maybe maybe there's a method of chorus man. Maybe he
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: wanted to.
• 49:12
  Speaker 3: He's probably done.
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: You're not telling me so.
• 49:18
  Speaker 5: Well. This is that time when hey, one guy that
• 49:20
  Speaker 5: build off of it, his Lim Hendrix right talking about
• 49:23
  Speaker 5: pissing the right man. He's like, you know what, we
• 49:24
  Speaker 5: didn't make any moves. Let me piss this guy off
• 49:26
  Speaker 5: and get everybody fired.
• 49:28
  Speaker 2: Let's go how you doing.
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: This is the time of year when pitching injuries pop
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: up and then the question comes where it's like, is
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: he going to get back in time, right, will he
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: be able to get himself back by the end of
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: the season or will this guy pop up in October?
• 49:41
  Speaker 3: Which is pretty rare, but.
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: It does happen sometimes. So anyway, good show, ft fam,
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: very good.
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: Uh you?
• 49:49
  Speaker 3: When do you have Little League?
