1:04
Speaker 2: time where if you underachieved, if you lacked the pedigree
1:08
Speaker 2: to get a job done, you lost your job. In
1:11
Speaker 2: many cases, that is not happening anymore. In the industrial

2:34
Speaker 2: on the Riddle of the Day. Also Mallard's Mountain of Money.
2:38
Speaker 2: We're gonna get away from the football because we got
2:42
Speaker 2: baseball action. We have Major League Baseball playoff activity today
2:50
Speaker 2: talking bays ball.
2:52
Speaker 1: Yeah, all day.
2:54
Speaker 2: And depending on where you are on the West Coast,
2:56
Speaker 2: these games start at ten in the morning, getting up
2:59
Speaker 2: for the middle part of that early game. But it's
3:01
Speaker 2: the Cleveland Guardians and the Tigers, So I don't know
3:03
Speaker 2: that it's a must see, must see TV now with
3:07
Speaker 2: that as the backdrop, and we will spend a lot
3:09
Speaker 2: of time over the next month or so talking about
3:11
Speaker 2: the baseball playoffs, the good, the.
3:12
Speaker 1: Bad, and we love the ugly. We're all about the ugly.
3:16
Speaker 1: We love the ugly.
3:17
Speaker 2: But I bring this up here because the fallout from
3:20
Speaker 2: the regular season still has some legs as the playoffs
3:23
Speaker 2: will get going here on Tuesday. So the teams that
3:27
Speaker 2: didn't get invited, the teams that are not the cool
3:30
Speaker 2: kids not invited to the party, left to pick up
3:33
Speaker 2: the pieces, if you will. Now, one of those teams
3:36
Speaker 2: is the New York Metropolitans. If you saw what happened
3:41
Speaker 2: to they were epic choking dogs. The New York Mets.
3:46
Speaker 2: Just pathetic, spineless baseball by the New York Mets.
3:50
Speaker 1: So what do they do?
3:51
Speaker 2: They obviously fired their manager as a no brainer. You
3:54
Speaker 2: play like that, you fire the Mendoza line, No say what?
4:00
Speaker 4: No?
4:00
Speaker 2: They I'm telling you they didn't fire him. I know
4:03
Speaker 2: it's shocking. Well, Carlos Mendoza has been given a pardon
4:10
Speaker 2: by the New York Mets front office.
4:12
Speaker 1: He will return.
4:13
Speaker 2: According to the early word out of Flushing, the Mets
4:16
Speaker 2: will keep Carlos Mendoza as their manager. In twenty twenty
4:19
Speaker 2: six that according to the President of Baseball Ops Chief
4:22
Speaker 2: nerd David sterns Zah, he said, quote, I believe Carlos
4:29
Speaker 2: has all the same traits and assets that we believed
4:32
Speaker 2: in when we hired him two years ago, the Mets
4:37
Speaker 2: brainy executive said today media gathering at City Field. So
4:41
Speaker 2: the dissecting and the analyzing of the Mets and other
4:45
Speaker 2: teams underway, and the decision to keep the manager, I
4:48
Speaker 2: think that's a good jumping off point. So let's discuss
4:50
Speaker 2: the question what message are the New York Mets sending
4:55
Speaker 2: their fans by keeping manager Carlos Mendoza.
4:58
Speaker 1: Is there a message that they are sending. So I've got.
5:00
Speaker 2: Waffle house, drywall, and cafeteria food and we'll combine all
5:08
Speaker 2: of these things together to make the Baba Ganoosh. We're
5:12
Speaker 2: gonna make the Baba Ganoosh. Now, first of all, welcome,
5:17
Speaker 2: for those of you a little slow in the back
5:19
Speaker 2: of the room, we'd like to welcome you to modern
5:21
Speaker 2: professional sports, in this case professional baseball. The manager for
5:29
Speaker 2: about one hundred and seventy five years, the manager in
5:34
Speaker 2: Major League Baseball was expendable that if things were not
5:39
Speaker 2: going well, the line.
5:41
Speaker 1: Is, you can't get rid of the players. You get
5:42
Speaker 1: rid of the manager. Cannot do it, cannot do it.
5:46
Speaker 2: Like the manager is just the guy that hands over
5:49
Speaker 2: the lineup card to the umpires and that's it. That's
5:51
Speaker 2: his power, and that's all. And that's the way baseball
5:55
Speaker 2: is today. Like that's the way they operate here. That's
5:58
Speaker 2: the superpower. That's it. It's like you're the assistant shift
6:01
Speaker 2: manager at Walmart. You're not the one making the decisions.
6:07
Speaker 2: You're not that guy. Pal and Carlos Mendoza, ironically, the
6:13
Speaker 2: Mendoza line, he's not pushing the buttons, he's not deciding
6:18
Speaker 2: who plays and where they play and when they play,
6:20
Speaker 2: and how often they play. He's not doing any of that,
6:24
Speaker 2: all right, that's it. He's just kind of hanging out.
6:29
Speaker 2: You gotta read the three ring Binder. Now, you do
6:31
Speaker 2: have to read the three ring Binder. The general manager
6:34
Speaker 2: David Sterns with his Harvard degree Harvard YUD. He's the
6:41
Speaker 2: puppet master. David Stearns is the puppet master the Mets.
6:45
Speaker 2: They've got Nerd Army, right. Nerd Army is the front office.
6:48
Speaker 2: They're the ones that do all the managing of the
6:50
Speaker 2: New York Mets. And they put the lineup together that
6:53
Speaker 2: Mendoza goes out and trots out and hands to the
6:55
Speaker 2: umpiring crew and here, mister Mendoza, play one. So here,
7:01
Speaker 2: I want you to put Pete Alonzo in this spot
7:05
Speaker 2: in the lineup because the algorithm says he's going to
7:08
Speaker 2: do pretty well there. And then I want you to
7:10
Speaker 2: shift Jeff McNeil like this, and then Mendoza just nods okay,
7:16
Speaker 2: and then I'll talk to the media and then that'll
7:19
Speaker 2: be that. He's essentially Surrey with like with syrups. He
7:25
Speaker 2: gets to where the uniform right and all that, and
7:28
Speaker 2: that's great. But in the old days, this would never fly.
7:33
Speaker 2: You could not get away with something like this for
7:36
Speaker 2: one hundred and seventy five years of baseball. But now,
7:39
Speaker 2: times obviously have changed, and so now it's like, okay.
7:42
Speaker 1: Forget about. You blew the entire season.
7:44
Speaker 2: The team sucked, the players are chronic underachievers, and you
7:49
Speaker 2: had the biggest payroll in baseball. Your ass is supposed
7:53
Speaker 2: to be grass. But not anymore, right, not anymore. You know,
7:57
Speaker 2: for a long time, before the team even got back
8:01
Speaker 2: to their home city after the final game, the manager
8:04
Speaker 2: was given its walking papers see you later. But in
8:07
Speaker 2: the old country, the owners, when it was a mom
8:10
Speaker 2: and pop here's the guy, right thing. When it was
8:11
Speaker 2: a mom and pop business, managers were whacked all the time. Hey,
8:17
Speaker 2: they got rid of these guys all the time, and
8:22
Speaker 2: they just, well, you follow instructions now, that's all you're
8:24
Speaker 2: supposed to do. But in the old days, you wouldnt
8:25
Speaker 2: even get off the tarmac to get on the plane.
8:28
Speaker 2: They'd leave you behind and be like, oh, you've got
8:30
Speaker 2: to figure out your travel arrangements to get back to
8:32
Speaker 2: where you need to go. And the manager's just a
8:36
Speaker 2: temporary person there. It's like a substitute teacher and just
8:39
Speaker 2: kind of do your thing, and that's it.
8:42
Speaker 1: And the Mets, even though they're.
8:44
Speaker 2: Not owned by a mega corporation, but they're owned by
8:47
Speaker 2: a fanboy. And Steven Cohne, the Mets owner there, and
8:53
Speaker 2: what is he telling. The message here is rather obvious.
8:56
Speaker 2: The message from the New York Mets is this is
8:59
Speaker 2: not Carlos Mendoza's team.
9:02
Speaker 1: We have neutered him.
9:03
Speaker 2: He has no balls. The manager of the Mets is
9:07
Speaker 2: a ballless wonder. We're gonna bring him back because he
9:10
Speaker 2: has no nuts, and he doesn't make any decisions. All right,
9:14
Speaker 2: that's it, no decisions. We'll bring him back. And it's
9:18
Speaker 2: just the algorithm. Blame the algorithm. You can't blame the
9:21
Speaker 2: algorithm because it's just an algorithm.
9:23
Speaker 1: And that's all. He's just a.
9:24
Speaker 2: Middle manager, Carlos Mendoza. He might as well be working
9:27
Speaker 2: at a waffle house in South Carolina. His job is
9:31
Speaker 2: to make sure the hash browns get to the table,
9:34
Speaker 2: while the real power is the person making the hash
9:37
Speaker 2: browns in the kitchen and the ball of grits and
9:42
Speaker 2: the pecan waffles and all that stuff. Now, so the
9:45
Speaker 2: Mets are flat out saying again for those of you
9:47
Speaker 2: a little slow. The Mets are flat out saying that
9:50
Speaker 2: results don't matter. Carlos Mendoza doesn't matter. He doesn't make
9:55
Speaker 2: any decisions. There's no real accountability. And I'm just gonna motorrod.
10:01
Speaker 2: That's it, Chop, that's it. It's a motorod. As long
10:05
Speaker 2: as the nerds in the lab coats approve of the lineup,
10:09
Speaker 2: and Mendoza just keeps sending out the same crap, that's
10:13
Speaker 2: all that matters.
10:14
Speaker 1: He's safe.
10:16
Speaker 5: Now.
10:16
Speaker 2: Secondly, we did we did get a change in San Francisco.
10:20
Speaker 2: Bob Melvin, he goll see you later. Bob Melvin. Two
10:25
Speaker 2: first names, Bob mikes. Melvin's the first old first name.
10:28
Speaker 2: But Bob Melvin has been whack a doodle. He's out
10:32
Speaker 2: whacked as the manager of the Giants, See you later.
10:35
Speaker 2: The Giants played one hundred and sixty two games. They
10:39
Speaker 2: lost eighty one, they won eighty one average average.
10:45
Speaker 1: Now, they did tease fans a couple of times.
10:47
Speaker 2: They got off to a pretty good start, and then
10:51
Speaker 2: they went on a terrible dumpster fire run. Then they
10:56
Speaker 2: won thirteen out of sixteen in late August early September,
11:00
Speaker 2: worked themselves back into playoff contention because everyone's a contender
11:04
Speaker 2: in baseball.
11:05
Speaker 1: And then they.
11:06
Speaker 2: Went two to nine in a stretch and then that
11:09
Speaker 2: was not an ana.
11:13
Speaker 1: Good Bye.
11:15
Speaker 2: That's it now. Buster Posey, grown man named Buster, not
11:20
Speaker 2: his real name. He said, just looking to find a
11:23
Speaker 2: different voice that can take us in a different direction.
11:26
Speaker 2: Close quote from Buster Posey, the general manager of the Giants.
11:32
Speaker 2: So San Francisco, we know they went big. In fact,
11:36
Speaker 2: the night I was at the the only Dodger game
11:38
Speaker 2: I went to this year with the Marlins man, my
11:40
Speaker 2: buddy Marlin's man. He's very upset the match did not
11:42
Speaker 2: make the playoffs. He has He sent me a message
11:45
Speaker 2: I got Mets tickets for all the playoff games.
11:47
Speaker 1: They're not in the playoffs. Well, I said, well that's
11:49
Speaker 1: a bummer anyway.
11:51
Speaker 2: So they traded for rafa Ol Devers from the Red
11:53
Speaker 2: Sox on a Sunday night, just before a Sunday night game,
11:57
Speaker 2: and they were supposed to turn.
11:58
Speaker 1: On the afterburns. The never turned on the after burners.
12:02
Speaker 2: Didn't happen. Didn't happen, So the question why the Mets,
12:07
Speaker 2: who underachieved. They kept their manager, but in San Francisco
12:10
Speaker 2: not the case. So why was Bob Melvin given his
12:14
Speaker 2: walking papers as the Giants manager when the Giants didn't
12:19
Speaker 2: have any real expectations this year compared to the team
12:21
Speaker 2: like the Mets.
12:22
Speaker 1: So this was a more of a mercy firing.
12:25
Speaker 2: What happened in San Francisco disguised as a philosophical pivot
12:29
Speaker 2: by the franchise. Like Bob Melvin, the problem he had
12:34
Speaker 2: is the team was boring and he's boring. Can't have both,
12:38
Speaker 2: cannot have both. And you don't need some kind of
12:42
Speaker 2: sabermetric chart. I don't need to put a chart up
12:47
Speaker 2: to show you here to figure out that the Giants
12:51
Speaker 2: had a morbid offense this year. They played bland baseball,
12:56
Speaker 2: a lack of passion. If they were a color in
13:00
Speaker 2: the rainbow, they would be beige. Well, there's no bage
13:05
Speaker 2: in the rainbow. Just go with it, dummy, It's beige.
13:08
Speaker 2: Beige baseball is what it is. They teased, they choked,
13:14
Speaker 2: They teased a get, They choked to get eighty one
13:16
Speaker 2: and eighty one. That is baseball's version of driving cross
13:20
Speaker 2: country and never leaving a rest stop. That is essentially
13:24
Speaker 2: what the Giants did. Now here's the key. The difference.
13:28
Speaker 2: When you juxtapose what the Giants are doing firing Bob
13:31
Speaker 2: Melvin compared to the Mets and Carlos Mendoza. The difference here,
13:35
Speaker 2: and this is a big one, is Buster Posey is
13:39
Speaker 2: not some kind of mit nerd.
13:42
Speaker 1: He is not.
13:44
Speaker 2: He didn't ride the Ivy League coattails the gravy train
13:48
Speaker 2: there in some corner office. And he's a kid from
13:52
Speaker 2: Georgia who played for the Seminoles of Florida State, played baseball,
13:56
Speaker 2: was very good there. That's his stock. He's a Seminole.
13:59
Speaker 2: By nat you're there, and he knows because he played
14:02
Speaker 2: a long time. He knows what's going on. He's got
14:05
Speaker 2: the pine tar still under his fingernails. It's hard to
14:08
Speaker 2: get that out. He's still got some pine tar under
14:10
Speaker 2: on his right hand. He's got a little pine tar
14:12
Speaker 2: right there. And he inherited Bob Melvin. That's the other
14:15
Speaker 2: part of this. He didn't hire Bob Melvin. He inherited
14:18
Speaker 2: Bob Melvin. And when you inherit a manager who's milk
14:24
Speaker 2: Toast personified, eventually you say, well, I kind of want
14:30
Speaker 2: a little jolt cola.
14:31
Speaker 1: I want some I want a little caffeine here.
14:34
Speaker 2: I want someone who's overcaffeinated, and that's not the guy.
14:37
Speaker 2: I want someone who's a little louder and all that stuff,
14:40
Speaker 2: or just a better manager. That was supposed to be
14:43
Speaker 2: the turbo boost when they got Rafael Devers. It did
14:46
Speaker 2: not turn out that the after burners were there for
14:49
Speaker 2: the San Francisco Giants. Instead, it's another case of the
14:52
Speaker 2: Giants here where they rev up the engine but never
14:55
Speaker 2: really pulled onto the highway. Didn't pull onto the freeway there.
14:59
Speaker 2: And Posey, he also knows it's entertainment. It's entertainment.
15:02
Speaker 1: And Bob Melvin, although a study.
15:06
Speaker 2: Handed a experience after that Gabe Kaepler buffoon, you put
15:11
Speaker 2: Bob Melvin in there. He's a grown up in the room, right,
15:13
Speaker 2: He's a grown up in the room and all that stuff,
15:16
Speaker 2: and that's wonderful. But watching the Giants play was about
15:20
Speaker 2: as interesting as watching drywall. Just sitting there and staring
15:23
Speaker 2: at drywall. Not a lot of entertainment, not a lot
15:25
Speaker 2: of wow factor when you do that. Now, it is
15:28
Speaker 2: interesting to note that Buster Posey's beloved manager is now available.
15:33
Speaker 2: The Texas Rangers said bye bye to Bruce Bouchie. He's
15:39
Speaker 2: out in Arlington. Only time that Rangers have been any good.
15:42
Speaker 2: They won the World Series with Bruce Bochie, and now
15:44
Speaker 2: they have said bye bye to Bouchie. So he's out,
15:50
Speaker 2: and so that opens the door for Bruce Bochie to
15:53
Speaker 2: return to the San Francisco Genas. Now he's not the
15:56
Speaker 2: most exciting guy in the world, but he's got the resume.
15:59
Speaker 2: He's got the actually resume. You can sell the resume.
16:02
Speaker 2: You can get people to buy tickets. They get all
16:04
Speaker 2: horny because you look at all those championships Boch he
16:06
Speaker 2: won back in the day.
16:08
Speaker 1: All right.
16:08
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, final thought to Pittsburgh, we'll do this quickly, quick, right,
16:13
Speaker 2: we'll do it quickly. So the Pittsburgh Pirates a horrific
16:16
Speaker 2: baseball team. Now, they actually fired their manager during the season.
16:20
Speaker 2: They put somebody named Don Kelly in as the interim manager.
16:23
Speaker 2: They then had a losing record with Don Kelly six
16:27
Speaker 2: games under five hundred.
16:28
Speaker 1: So the Pirates have decided what you'd expect them to do.
16:31
Speaker 2: They've kept Don Kelly as their manager because they are losers.
16:35
Speaker 2: Not only that, the Pirates have decided that they're incompetent.
16:38
Speaker 2: GM Ben Charrington, red Sox trash who landed in Pittsburgh
16:43
Speaker 2: that he will remain as the general manager of the
16:45
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh Pirates. So how does all of that impact the future?
16:49
Speaker 2: Because the Pirates aren't interesting, but there's one guy in
16:52
Speaker 2: the Pirates that is interesting. So how does that impact
16:54
Speaker 2: the future of pitching phenom Paul Skens the decision to
17:00
Speaker 2: keep the manager and the general manager there in Pittsburgh.
17:03
Speaker 2: So you might remember Paul Skins near the end of
17:06
Speaker 2: the regular season said something to the effect of, if
17:10
Speaker 2: we don't learn from this, meaning if changes aren't made,
17:12
Speaker 2: that's the way I interpreted it, then it's a wasted
17:16
Speaker 2: time for the Pittsburgh Pirates. So this is a once
17:20
Speaker 2: in a generation situation the Pirates have on the mound,
17:24
Speaker 2: and instead of making the necessary changes to put a
17:28
Speaker 2: championship caliber team around Paul Skins, giving him a reason
17:33
Speaker 2: to stay at least for a few more years. At
17:36
Speaker 2: least for a few more years, what are the Pirates do?
17:40
Speaker 2: They do what they always do. They cheap out, They stall,
17:43
Speaker 2: And now all the tea leaves continuing to indicate every
17:49
Speaker 2: single every single key indicator pointing to an exit stage
17:54
Speaker 2: left that's going to happen.
17:57
Speaker 1: The usual suspect of the Mets, the.
17:59
Speaker 2: Dodgers, the Cobs, all of the big market teams. You
18:05
Speaker 2: got to think the Red Sox will be on being
18:07
Speaker 2: on Paul Skans also here, they're all going to be
18:09
Speaker 2: on the prowl to try.
18:10
Speaker 1: To get Paul Skins.
18:12
Speaker 2: And it's really up to his group of hanger on
18:17
Speaker 2: so the people that are writing his coatails whether or
18:19
Speaker 2: not he's going to press the issue here, press your
18:23
Speaker 2: luck and attempt to get a trade whommy, no hammy,
18:27
Speaker 2: big money, big money, a stop, that's the question. And
18:31
Speaker 2: so we'll see whether or not he wants to do that.
18:34
Speaker 2: The Pirates had an opportunity. They have futched away the opportunity,
18:38
Speaker 2: and so the front office is essentially telling their franchise player, Hey,
18:43
Speaker 2: you're on your own, big fella, but keep bringing that
18:46
Speaker 2: lady friend around. People seem to like her on social media.
18:48
Speaker 2: But we're not serious about winning. We just want to
18:51
Speaker 2: put a halfway decent team on the field, but not
18:54
Speaker 2: a good team. Not a good team here, and so
18:56
Speaker 2: no changing culture, no changing identity, none of that. No
19:00
Speaker 2: change even just for optics. They're not even pretending that's
19:04
Speaker 2: the beauty of the Pirates. They don't even try like
19:07
Speaker 2: some teams would they'd make changes just to make changes, like,
19:09
Speaker 2: they don't even do that. They're like, listen, we got
19:11
Speaker 2: in a competent GM, we got a manager who's nothing special.
19:14
Speaker 1: Let's keep them both. Why not?
19:17
Speaker 2: Man, We'll this go with the status quo, went in doubt, punt,
19:21
Speaker 2: went in doubt punt. And so they've got that gray
19:26
Speaker 2: cafeteria food in the elementary school. They've got that just
19:29
Speaker 2: cafeteria foods all gray. That's Pirates baseball, kind of like
19:33
Speaker 2: the sky in Pittsburgh a lot of the year, just
19:36
Speaker 2: kind of gray and overcast and all that stuff. And
19:39
Speaker 2: so good luck, and we'll see what happens next, but
19:43
Speaker 2: a whole lot of nothing. And once the playoffs and
19:46
Speaker 2: we'll hear a lot of rumors, speculation and all that.
19:50
Speaker 2: And I can see the slogan for the twenty twenty
19:52
Speaker 2: six Pirates. If Paul Skeins is not traded, come see
19:55
Speaker 2: the comet before the comet goes away. And and that's it.
20:00
Speaker 2: Comics already likely packing the bags as we speak right now,
20:03

25:46
Speaker 1: not supposed to get it right. And no, no you don't.

29:52
Speaker 1: I'm here and excited to be here.
29:54
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know. We appreciate your show. It's been quite
29:58
Speaker 3: a day here in the Bay Area with the Bob
30:01
Speaker 3: Milvin firing, and yeah, I saw the lot with the
30:06
Speaker 3: Mets as well with Carlos Mendoza. But first off, Bob
30:10
Speaker 3: Melvin Scorpio, like Lorena and Coop.
30:17
Speaker 1: She smiled when you said that. Lorena smiled.
30:19
Speaker 7: I love being a Scorpio.
30:20
Speaker 1: I'm quite proud.
30:21
Speaker 2: Well, the only thing I don't be proud of that
30:24
Speaker 2: you really had no choice in it, right, you were
30:26
Speaker 2: born into it.
30:27
Speaker 7: That's true if you think that everything happens not on purpose.
30:30
Speaker 7: But you know, world has a way of planning and
30:32
Speaker 7: working things, and it wanted me to be a Scorpio.
30:34
Speaker 2: So you wouldn't be happy if you were like a cancer,
30:36
Speaker 2: a tourist, or a virgo.
30:39
Speaker 8: Areas I'd be way too.
30:41
Speaker 2: Yeah.
30:41
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, it's interesting you brought up aries. Bob Melvin
30:45
Speaker 3: is a Scorpio. Let's see October twenty eighth, nineteen sixty
30:50
Speaker 3: one Buster Poseys and Aries and Airs and Scorpio clash
30:55
Speaker 3: because they're both ruled by Mars. So there was definitely
30:58
Speaker 3: a power struggle and in the mix, you know, the transits,
31:02
Speaker 3: which is what's happening currently. Mars is in Scorpio, which
31:07
Speaker 3: rules energy, assertion and aggression, and it started about a
31:11
Speaker 3: week and a half ago. Nick post is a scorpio
31:14
Speaker 3: when mors in scorpio hit his son in scorpio and
31:17
Speaker 3: he got the injury. So suffices to say moris transit
31:21
Speaker 3: is once every two years. Rules, energy, assertion, aggression, and
31:25
Speaker 3: power struggles. And that was interesting because Buster Posey actually
31:29
Speaker 3: picked up the option on Bob Melvin's contract for twenty
31:34
Speaker 3: twenty six.
31:35
Speaker 2: Yes, that's called the Golden parachute. That is a nice
31:38
Speaker 2: parting gift. Very kind of Buster Posey to do. That
31:41
Speaker 2: is like, listen, the giants have a lot of money,
31:42
Speaker 2: the owners have a lot of money.
31:43
Speaker 1: We'll just cut you a giant check to go away.
31:46
Speaker 3: Oh is that you still get paid if they pick
31:48
Speaker 3: up your option.
31:49
Speaker 2: Yes, it's likely you're not going to get the full amount,
31:52
Speaker 2: but he's going to get a nice, big fat check
31:54
Speaker 2: to go away.
31:54
Speaker 3: Okay, Oh yeah, all right.
31:56
Speaker 2: May we all have bosses that are nice enough to
31:59
Speaker 2: actually give raises out and to actually uh you know,
32:02
Speaker 2: take care of you.
32:03
Speaker 1: You know.
32:03
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, that's good. I learned something new every day. Okay, yeah,
32:07
Speaker 3: so you know that said I actually liked Bob Melvin.
32:11
Speaker 3: I remember him with the a's.
32:13
Speaker 1: I like him a lot that's right.
32:14
Speaker 2: I remember you were close with you lost some of
32:17
Speaker 2: the a's back in the day, Barry Zito, right then,

Speaker 3: Really open it into astrology. He was an eccentric tourist.
32:26
Speaker 3: I like you.
32:26
Speaker 2: All right, Well, let's put the ball on this because
32:28
Speaker 2: we do have to get to the game. So let's
32:29
Speaker 2: sum this up in one amazing sentence. Here can we
32:33
Speaker 2: sum all of this up right now?
32:34
Speaker 3: Well, it's that time of year when everything gets evaluated.
32:39
Speaker 3: So go with the flow and uh trust your land
32:43
