Astros Nightmare Trip, Dodgers troll Mets, Trout vs. Judge show · Foul Territory

• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Did you guys see anything about how power was down a.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: Little bit the first few weeks in the season, and
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: then last night happened. Power was down a little bit,
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: Hombers were down a little bit. The excuse of the
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: cold weather, which I'm not completely crapping on the cold
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: weather excuse.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: I'm just the ball is.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: Not going to travel as much as far in thirty
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: degrees as it's going to travel in seventy eight degrees. True,
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: we know that, you know, We're just saying it's not
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: the excuse for a team scoring a few runs over
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: a week span.
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: So plus it's been fifteen games, like we talked about yesterday.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a small sample size.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: What we did get was nine players hitting at least
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: two home runs. Nine players with two homer games?
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: Were they the Yankees Angels game?
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: A lot of not all, but a lot of a
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: lot of power in that that game had three Grisham,
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: judge and trout. But the record for two homer games
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: in one night is ten. It was one shy of
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: the all time record, and this was on a night
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: when there were ten games, not fifteen. Wow, So that's
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: pretty impressive. Just to show you the kind of individual
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: performances that we saw last night and how some power
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: was definitely all year or last I mean last night
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: the Mets had two hits to get or.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Two strikeouts.
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: Well, Francisco, Francisco, I made Francisco last night.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: He doesn't have an RBI yet, so.
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: That means he doesn't have any home rs you know,
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: which is amazing because it is so good, But also
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: you know what else? That means what at some point
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: someone's gonna pay and he's going to get scorching hot.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: His numbers are the same almost every year.
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: I'm saying, at some point someone's gonna pay.
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we're going to ask Ken about this guy, but
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: just wanted to highlight this before we start. Jordan Walker
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: leads baseball with eight home runs.
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: Last year, but I thought he couldn't hit.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, he's the same age as JJ Weatherholt, who's
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: two weeks into his big league career something.
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: But I thought Jordan Marker couldn't hit.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: I think he's had the hit tool and the power
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: wasn't coming along as quickly last year. He had correct
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: Not every player blows up at twenty twenty one, so.
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: Once in a while you got to take a chill.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: Well, he also did make significant changes. We'll get into this.
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: What she finally got him to.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: Do elevate the baseball more.
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: Well, they yes, they finally got what. They've been talking
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: about doing changes for a while and they finally got
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: him to do it.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: He went to drive Line, he went to Chared.
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: Took his shirt off and they did a mo cap
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: and now he's hitting dingers. I can tell the difference.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: What's a mo cap?
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: I don't know. That's where they take their shirt off
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: and they put all the little like black like nuggets
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: all over your body and then they basically figure out
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: how your body's moving and it's not moving. The guy
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: is an absolute monster, and he really never got a
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: chance to solidify himself in the big leagues. The first
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: two years he kept getting sent down. He's hitting like
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: two seventy to eighty, got sent down and he was like,
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: why did I get sent down? Well, you got to
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: elevate the ball more. I don't want to I want
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: to hit. Now he's elevating the ball more and he's
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: leading the league in homers. Jim Bowden, great call.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: Oh, he was obsessed with Jordan Walker and he was
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: getting a lot of flak for that now, he's not
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: getting that black patience everyone patients in a long season.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: Not for every case. There are some teams that you
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: should at least consider pressing a panic button for this
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: early on in a year. How does that happen if
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: a team stumbles out of the gates and is missing
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: many key components.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: So we are going to start that way. Let's do it.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: Charge about here we go.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: Houston Astros had a nightmare road trip. They lost six
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: two to the Mariners. They're six and eleven on the year.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: Channeler Rome with this tweet. They've lost eight games in
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: a row. He called it the ten game road trip
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: from Hell. They won one game out of ten. It's
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: their first losing streak of at least eight games since
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: twenty thirteen, the same year they lost one hundred eleven games.
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: These were also critical division matchups. I know it's early
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: in the year, but this is against a team that
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: is the favorite to win the American League West, and
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: the Mariners took them out in a four game set.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: The Astros also happened to be down a ton of players.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: They had five injuries since this road trip started, including
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: key players like Jeremy Pana they're now missing. Of course,
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: Hunter Brown. We got that news last week that it's
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: going to be some extended time. Christian Javier goes down,
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: The list goes on and on, am I Jake Myers, this.
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: Is Carlos Carell is happy.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: Carlos Correa was pissed.
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: He I mean he went for the twins who were
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: really good.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: We thought to the Astros, we thought we're gonna be
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: really good. Yeah, and now they they aren't good. At
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: least say won one on this road tip. What if
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: they would have gone to ten? Then think how bad
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: it would have been. How did we ever win one?
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: It's a miracle.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: And he just said we're a good club playing bad baseball.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: That's exactly he had some explosives he did. Do you
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: like that if you're his teammate, where he's like, screw
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: the injuries.
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: How's he doing good? Eight hundred ops? Just under eight
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: hundred ops? So happy hit guy? Is that what you're saying? No,
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: I didn't say that. I'm just I just don't really look.
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: I'm just I'm just saying it's listen, Carlos Krey is
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: probably the one guy on this team him and probably
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: al two that can say something like this. But it's
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: also I don't know. I've been on bad teams and
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: you try not to you never want to call anybody
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: out and listen, he tried to do it in the
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: nicest way possible. I don't know, it's it's just weird.
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: I don't know. Carlos knows this team better. Carlos has
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: been through the wars. He knows everything so about this
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: team and how they react and how they're going to
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: handle different stuff. It's just hard when you have all
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: those guys hurt man, guys are trying. I always look
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: at it like this, and aj Hinch has told us,
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: and he talked about this with us. You tell your
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: team not to strike out. The guys aren't going up
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: there trying to not hit the ball. They're going up
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: there trying to hit the ball. The Astros are not
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: going into these games trying to lose. And the one
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: thing about baseball and crats, I think you agree with
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: me on this one. It's not a try hard sport.
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: It's not like football. You can go hit the guy harder,
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: or you can run a route harder. Basketball you can
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: run up and down the court faster. Hockey you can
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: put more pressure. It's a game that you almost are
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: better when you don't try as hard and you take
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: a step back and say, Okay, I'm gonna let this happen.
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: Pete Alonzo, You're welcome, Pete.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: But it'll run for Pete the last couple of days.
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: But it's not a game where the harder you try,
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: the tighter I grip the bat, the harder I swing.
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: That actually hinders you a lot in baseball, I'm gonna
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: throw this pitch harder. It's more of a I need
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: to take a step back and relax. So that's why
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: it's kind of different these raw, raw speeches. Everyone's like, oh,
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: the manager had a meeting. I mean, I think crowds
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: agree nine times out of ten the manager had a meeting.
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: Guys walk out of there like all they remember is
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: like some line the manager drop that was outlandish to everybody.
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: It's not like we're no one's trying. Everyone's trying.
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: Can I make one case not against that? But that
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: does stand out from a pitching perspective. You can certainly
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: overthrow right and then lose control or command, but in
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: a playoff game or even just going from a spring
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: training game to a regular season game like opening day.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: We do see velocity bump up for starters, like if
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: someone's pitching in an empty ballpark versus pitching in October.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: Usually see that spike with a starter.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: That's the only case in baseball that I can think of, right,
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: because it's not like, yeah, oh, let me swing harder
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: at this, and a more violent swing is going to
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: make a difference. That's not really what the sport is about.
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: No. And also, they've scored runs. They just can't stop
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: anyone from scoring runs. It's like they give them a
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: ten spot every night and they walk a lot and
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: they're still right hand heavy. They chase a lot too.
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: That's the other.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: Problem that's been a thing for a while now.
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: They you know jord On, and they tried saying, hey,
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: sus chances he didn't work out there. They chase a lot.
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: I mean again, they score. Look at their ops, look
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: at their average, look at the home runs. All these
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: numbers are great. The problem is you go to the
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: other side. You can't win with a six and a
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: half era. Too many walks, too many, too many guys
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: on base. There's the problem. Crats.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: The world has a chord problem. Wires everywhere it's twenty
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: twenty six and it is time to get a Ridge wallet.
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: Five and one. It's not a wallet, it's a charger.
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: Look at this thing. It sticks to your phone. You
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: push the button, it charges your phone while you can
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: charge two different items at the same time. Oh and
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: don't forget while it's charging. You got a little a
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: little lean to John that'll help it sit right there.
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: Appreciate your Ridge wallet.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: This is so nice, which is great for me.
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: If I'm at the airport, I'm watching a game, I
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: can charge five devices and then I can just watch
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: something on the phone. Of course, they still have the
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: wallets that are money too, and we know the code.
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: It's nice and simple. It's foul foul. One thing to pack.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: Five ways to power. You can find Ridge's power bank
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: at best Buy or our listeners can get ten percent
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: off at Ridge dot com by using code foul at checkout.
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: Head to Ridge dot com use code foul and you're
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: all set. After your purchase, they'll ask you where you
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: heard about them. Please support ft until them.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: We sent you.
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: They had a ten game road trip and they had
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: sixty I think they had sixty one walks on a
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: ten game road trip. That's that's crazy. You're giving the
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: other team ninety feet free ninety feet sixty different times.
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: That is the it's a wild number that the pitching
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: staff has to has to figure out. You ain't getting
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: Hunter Brown to throw for you for a long time,
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: Tatsuyo Min. We don't even know what his issue is.
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: Hater hasn't thrown to any hitters yet. There's there's a
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: lot going on there. Like I get it, Spencer Arraghetty's
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: coming back, so he'll give you some better innings. But
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: a six and a half era a road trip they
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: don't want to remember. And they leave that road trip
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: one and nine, they come back to Houston where they
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: started season five and two. So it's time to get
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: going because the West isn't going to wait a round
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: for him. There is as much as they didn't make
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: the playoffs last year, the West isn't like, oh man,
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: youel we're definitely scared of the Astros. No, they got
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: their opportunity to beat the Astros, and the Astros missed
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: the playoffs for the first time I think in eight years,
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: and now or didn't win the division for the first
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: time in eight years, and now the other teams are like, okay,
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: we feel good about ourselves, especially the Mariners, who had
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: the worst record in baseball going into that series and
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: then they swept them and now they're rolling. Mariners were like, oh,
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: thank you, thank you. Josh Naylor, cal Rowley, Radio, Rose Arena, Julio.
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: They all got hot in this four game series. And
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: I forgot I heard the stat when was the last
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: time they swept the four game It had been forever.
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: I heard him talking about it last night on This Guy.
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: I forget when it was, but it was forever swept
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: the Astros in a four gamer. It had been like forever.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: It makes sense. The Astros have been good for a
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: long time.
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: So I listen. I don't know what to tell you.
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: The Astros fans, Uh, take the over, That's what I'll
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: tell you. Take the over. Yeah, And they need some help.
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: They need some help on the mound, and I don't
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: know where they're going to get it, because they now
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: have called up all their guys. Gordon's uh, JP Frantz
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: is a all their guys that they were counting on,
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: they're all up now. And they go past these guys,
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: I don't know who's left down there and where's the
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: round Rock? Well, no, sugar Land, sugar Sorry, round Rock,
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: sugar Land. Frist go, I get it was round Rock,
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: now sugar Land. But is this a is this a start?
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: And you know, obviously injuries suck, it's our whole segment.
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: But the fact that you went out and got Ryan Weiss,
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: you went out and got Tatsuya my any other starting pitchers?
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: Did they get hamstrung because they couldn't unload Christian Walker
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: or east O Parades? Did they hamstring themselves because ownership said, yeah,
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: we're gonna go and get Carlos Korea last year at
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: the trade deadline to make a push the last month
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: of the season, Like, is all are all of the
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: things the decisions they made ahead of time now coming
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: to a head two free and early in the season. Yes,
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: especially if you're looking at possibly two months without your
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: number one starter. The guy that stops the eight game
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: losing streaks, they stops them at four because you have
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: that guy that steps up, Like that's it's a tough
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: tough road to hoe when your team scoring a ton
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: of runs and then your pitching stats like, oh that's cool,
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: I see them scoring runs. You guys want to score
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: runs too, Like, it's a tough they got They got
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: to turn it around quick or this American League West
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: will get out of hand. But the Astros have done
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: it before twenty twenty four, they had the same starting
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: record and they came back. But it's a they gotta
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: get going here.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the Rangers should be decent. The A's look better,
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: The Mariners are gonna be good. Angels are off to
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: a decent start. We'll see if that lasts.
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: If the Astros didn't make the playoffs last year and
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: we were wondering if it was a blip or more
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: of a trend, the way this is going right now,
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: it looks like it's gonna be a trend unless they
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: figure something out and change some stuff. That.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: One thing I'll say is that when I looked at
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: their rotation in the off season, after they had completed
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: all their moves, I was like, is it the deepest rotation? No,
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: But it didn't look like it was going to turn in.
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: Problem is they didn't know what they had in a
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: my right, it didn't.
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: But you didn't think that you're going to lose him
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: this quickly in this season right now?
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: No, But they you know they're counting on Burroughs. He
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: got whacked yesterday.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, eleven hits, but under Brown.
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: Brown Brown is the guy they really count on. You
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: lose him, It's like, okay.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: I was like book it one hundred and eighty five innings.
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: I know he was my pick for the cy Young
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: guess I can cancel that one.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: Cancel that.
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: I'm not going to pitch enough. Yeah, it's tough times
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: for them.
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: Who oh No, I just said it's all part just
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: like Jim and Leland said, it's all part of it. Yeah,
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: but you can't lose the people they've lost, especially on
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: the pitching side, and hope to continue. Just no team
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: other than maybe the Dodgers can lose that many guys
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: on one side of the ball and survive because the
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: Dodgers obviously have more depth to anybody. They sign more people,
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: which is fine, that's what they chose to do, but
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: it's I mean, it's really hard look at pick a
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: team and if they lose this many people on one
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: side of the ball, especially starting pitching, nobody can cover it.
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: The Braves were wondering about the Braves, but they didn't
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: cover it last year when they lost everybody. No, you
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: can in the offense, and then the offense is like,
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: we got to have ten runs a game and you
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: can't do that, And then the hitters are like, gosh,
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: I gotta get a hit, I gotta do this, I
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: gotta do that. Doesn't work.
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: So to me, any team that is looked at as
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: a playoff contender entering the year that doesn't make the
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: playoffs sneaks in it. Oh we had so many injuries
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: piled up kind of quote. It's not necessarily from the
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: players or the coach. It could be the broadcasters whatever.
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: You always hear that, right like last year the Braves
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: were hammered with their rotation. To me, the Astros are
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: getting that right now. Last year, I remember there were
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: Orioles excuses like, oh, we were hurt. I was like, no,
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: it just isn't the right roster. You guys didn't have
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: enough pitching to start. I don't look at that the
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: same way. That was to me like tier two in
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: terms of how many injuries you were dealing with. It
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: was not Tier one. The Astros are in Code red
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: Tier one.
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: Love Mark sends the pictures on Dodger Pigeon.
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: They have the deepest pitching, but they still have Glass.
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: Snow, they still have Yamamoto, they still have Suzaki, they
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: still have two hit baseball last night.
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: He's only missing one of their big boys right now, Snow.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: That's it.
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean next to a gradol Phillips. I mean,
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: those guys are all Stone. What's his name, River Stone,
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: that's a great name by them.
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, No River Ryan, Gavin Stone, River Ryan. Yeah. Yes,
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: but they started first.
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: You're counting on him as a Dodger fan. I mean,
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: come on, he's been hurt for like three years. Those
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: one inning and he gets hurt. It's like where we
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: hung up here. I mean, I mean there's a hundred,
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: but that one inning of one hundred is then he's
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: done for two weeks. It's crazy.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I actually think the Dodgers are in a pretty
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: good shape right now from a health components. What Mookie
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: don't Yeah, they're missing Mookie and Snell will be back.
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: There's still.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: They are. Hey, we just.
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: Mentioned this last year's Baltimore injuries. What about recent injuries
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: for a team that's still down guys like Jordan Westberg
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: and lost sack Eflyn.
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: That's not I'm not even including them.
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: Let's just look at their past week and it's the
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: weirdness gnarly foot infection.
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: This from Jacob calvin Meyer.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: Tyler Neil fains dehydration concussion, Rechmand Sprain's ankle running the bases.
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: Did you see mount Castle break his foot running the base?
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: Oh?
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: You were at that, I was calling the game. Oh yeah,
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: he just he had a double and then just caught
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: a sniper and went down.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: We broke his foot.
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: We couldn't, I know, we couldn't figure out what it was.
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: Right after Reutchman had just hurt his foot too, I
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: was like, what's wrong with the dirt Albernes last night?
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: Frigging that just missed?
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: Dude, you got hit, but it could have been way worse.
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it. It clipped him. It was like
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: a glancer. But that was bad.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: That was bad.
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: And then he showed back up and they got hot.
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: You know who got him hot?
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: You're combo with Pete. This guy, Pete's never gonna live
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: it down. The better he does, the more he's going
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: to hear it from him.
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: Are you kidding me? He hit a home run to
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: the guy wearing the polar Bear head.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: Least you can't do it better?
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: You're welcome Pete. I'm gonna say.
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: Say it again because he said yesterday, when did you
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: say to him?
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: I just went up to him and just said hey.
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: He was all you know, they had one Saturday, but
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: he was all down. He's really struggling.
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: And I actually went in to talk to after the game.
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: I never usually never go in the clubhouse after a
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: game because I want to get out of there, but
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: I went in. It's right on the way out in Baltimore.
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: So I was like, I'm going to go talk to
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: bass and Bos and thanks Shane Boss for coming on
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: the air and talk to Bassett. And so Pete was
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: sitting there. I didn't see Pete before the game, so
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: I went over to him. He's just kind of sitting
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: there and he's just on his phone like this, and
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: he's looking down and he looks up. He just kind
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: of gives me the I'm like, just give me a
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: hug and that's it. And I walked out.
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: One hug is all it takes. We have a couple
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: and it's before the TV crowd returns. I think this
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: is the spot to just hit on the Yankees Angels
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: game from last night. It was just really cool to
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: see two m vps going at it, And did you
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: guys hear how Judge called him the greatest player of
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: all time postgame? Did you hear that quote? Yeah, you
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: put it up on.
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: It was a great game to watch, So there was
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: a lot of back and forth. Now and no one
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: ever says it was one on one. It's like basketball
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: where you take the ball and go down the court.
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: But it was cool to see Judge omer Trout Homer
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: Judge Omber Trout, Homer right, it was cool. And then
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: Trent Grisham upstaged them all.
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: That's true, a huge Yeah, he's made some hard contact
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: this year and just wasn't falling for Grisham and oh
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: wit the right spots for him. Yeah, Judge post game
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: said Trout's the greatest of all time. He loves Trout. Judge,
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: we all love.
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: Trout, but I mean, it's gonna be hard for me
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: at the end of the day to show he is
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: the greatest of all time if he keeps doing what
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: he's doing, both sides of them.
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: I know, Kratz.
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: Sorry, I love Trout, I love Judge, I love them both.
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and the abs were interesting for Trout. He was
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: working deep count and then they kept saying on the
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: Yankees broadcast, they felt like he was sitting on the
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: right pitch. It looked like he knew whatever the breaker,
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: hanging breaker was coming on the three to two. And
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: then for Judge, the second homer, he got brushed a
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: couple times up and in and he was as pissed
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: as Judge can be pissed.
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: The homer got one buzz too, that's right, And he
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: hit the homer and then did have to Judge and
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: he hit the homer.
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: And they were both like they kept showing them after
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: and they're smiling. They know, yeah, we're good at this.
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: I mean, the Yankees bullpen has to start making pitches
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: or this is gonna be a long season for the Yankees. Like,
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: I get it. He sat on a hanging, breaking ball,
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: like you can't try to You can't expect to get
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: trout out with this lineup down in the zone.
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: We'll read a tweet. This is Sammy Levitt. The Padres
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: will be dealing with they suddenly hot Mariners team. This week,
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: Mariners scored sixteen runs and an eight game stretch before
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: the Astros series, they scored six runs or more in
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: each game in their four game sweep. Levit's a broadcast
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: right for the Padres.
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: I think I don't know, but is that more that's
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: more of like almost a side shot at the Astros.
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: I agree the Astros. And also I will say the
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: Padres are smoking hot. They had a big week and
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: they've got a nice little chunky winning streak.
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: I think that's a five ish.
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: And they played the Rockies.
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: They found their power from Rockies Rockies.
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: Five straight, Yes, five straight, they beat the Rockies. I
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: don't care about playing the Rocky. The Blue Jays got
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: swept by the Rockies, so you gotta beat the team
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: you're playing. I don't care who's on the roster, not
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: on the roster, where they're at in the division, how
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: they've played. They beat the Rockies, So don't tell Scott that.
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: Don't tell Scott's just gonna say, schedule matters as the schedule.
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: All day long.
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: By the way, Sammy Levit's a radio broadcaster host for
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: the Padres, but just pointing out the upcoming series between
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: those two teams. Yes, you need to pound the teams
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: you're supposed to pound. The Blue Jays were not able
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: to do that. The Padres definitely were able to do that.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: I mean, they really found their power stroke quickly. And
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: I don't know if we'll have another chance to throw
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: this out there, so I want to make sure that
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: we continue to give love to Mason Miller. It's becoming
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: a conversation, including on Fair Territory yesterday. Is he a
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: cy young candidate? Twenty four k's nineteen batters faced there's
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: a chance that if he keeps.
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: This up, he gets close to two hundred strikeouts.
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: If he gets two hundred strikeouts and he's definitely so young.
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, even if he gets one seventy. I mean this
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: is how much he used number.
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: I mean, he's done crazy numbers. He's he's pretty good.
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: I don't want to face him. What opened that. WBC
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: jinks he's doing just fine.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, WBC's okay, it works, Ken said.
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: Ken said on the show that he doesn't think a
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: reliever will ever be able to win that award again
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: when you start talking about one hundred and seventy two
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: hundred punchies from a reliever. Look, he has to keep
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: up an incredible pace like this is like a redict
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: this like high school pace. Twenty four batters, he's struck
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: nineteen of them. Out or twenty six batters. He's struck
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: nineteen out twenty four.
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: He's struck nineteen out, which I said two minutes ago.
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: I wasn't listening.
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: I know you're worried. I often don't listen to you
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: guys too. But yes, his numbers are insane right now.
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: And I know that they have a separate reliever award.
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: But I still think he could win SI Young because
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: it's not like he's disqualified from winning SI Young.
• 23:29
  Speaker 4: Guys, you ever get it from your children all the time, Dad,

  Speaker 2: box by May thirty first, twenty twenty six. Okay, let's
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: get back to this better than box scores. We're talking
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: about the Mets and the Dodgers. The Mets were shut
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: out for the second straight game. They've lost each of
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: their last six. In those six they've scored a combined
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: nine runs. I think one of those games was six runs,
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: So they're barely scoring right now. The Twins in the
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: same stretch of scored forty three runs. We're gonna talk
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: Twins in the next segment. Yeah, they trolled the Mets
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: before the game with Dave robertson. There's a reason Edwin
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: Diaz wanted to come here. He's chasing a ring that
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: was in the video that they were playing on the
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: big board, and then they completely shut down the Mets
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: with Justin Robleski putting together the performance of his life,
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: probably the best performance he's ever had eight innings.
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: That's by far performance, Yes, by far.
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: Absolutely shocked. So do you want to start with the
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: bad for the Mets? You're like, what's going on here?
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: How much of a hole can you dig?
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: Early on?
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: How much one's running away with it right now?
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: No? Well, that's part of it. I mean.
• 25:40
  Speaker 3: Plus, they're getting the Dodgers out of the way already
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: for at least three games.
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it would be nice for them if they win
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: one of those games.
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: Not good, Let's you can't ask for everything in life, Scott,
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: can't have everything in life.
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: So you're gonna get the Dodgers out of the way,
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: but they might sweep.
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: You can't ask for everything. Not everyone can have everything
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: in their life, Skot. You got to you gotta take
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: baby steps for the positives.
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: Can I bring up a player that that I want to?
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: I don't think you know?
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: Is kind of the Mets traded away? Remember how we
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: were talking about their offense. They got rid of a
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: lot of their offensive guys, and a lot of those
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: guys are doing pretty well.
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: My mind, Neil, let's let's get okay, not in New
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: York anymore correct, Let's get ready for the semion sound.
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: But before we do, I want to actually talk about him.
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: Marcus semeon for Brandon Neimo, it's been a couple of weeks.
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: I get it.
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: Tommy fam gets called out right.
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: Run prevention, run prevention.
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: Marcus sime In the second base is hitting one with
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: a five thirty two oh ps, it is early. I
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: know that's not good. Brandon Nemo is hitting the snot
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: out of the ball right now.
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: Okay, what's lindor what's the ship Polanco? One guy, I
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: think to Alvarez, I think is the only guy in
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: the metsage that's hitting Louise and Luis Luis Robertsry. Yeah,
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: two guys. There's two guys. Sorry, Because he's got a
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: crowd he can play in front him. Yes, especially when
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: he goes to La there's a big crowd.
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: He's never gonna live No.
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: He shouldn't, nor should he ever live that down because
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: it's one of the dumbest quotes I've ever heard. So tired.
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: But anyways, anyway, but my thing is mcmill's look at McNeil.
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: He's doing good too.
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: Yes, some guys are going to find it. I'm worried.
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: Marcus Simeon is thirty five years old. Didn't look great
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: at the plate last year, not great the year before either,
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: not the guy that we once knew. Right, the weighted
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: stats were close to league average, close a little under
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: last year. That looks like a tough trade to me
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: before we see the results this year. When we talked
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: about it in the offseason, I'm like, damn Nimmo.
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: For Simeon, there was a reason. We don't know what
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: the reason was why they made that move, but.
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: They wanted to switch it up.
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: They wanted to not get caught in the opus too.
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: Hasn't he since he's been called out.
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: He's been he's been better defensively than he used to be,
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: and he's been Okay.
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: They need they need Soto back, and they need Lindor
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: to do something. Yeah, that'd be a start.
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: For them, that would.
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: But yeah, you're not going to run into like those
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: you know, Pete Alonso homer two games, because this is
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: a different team.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: You have a different tell the Orioles.
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: Remember I got him hot.
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: I very much.
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: Remember. I've been getting reminded frequently right now.
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: Yes, I mean, he hit a pole. He hit a
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: home run to the guy we're in the polar bear head. Well,
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: that doesn't say you're hot nothing, does.
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: Simion's a pretty quiet guy, but we did speak after
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: the game, so let's get his sound.
• 28:38
  Speaker 5: These types of stretches are going to happen. You know,
• 28:42
  Speaker 5: it's tough when it happens early in the season. It's
• 28:44
  Speaker 5: tough when it's happened, and when we're you know, we're
• 28:46
  Speaker 5: just not winning ball games, and it's you know, the
• 28:49
  Speaker 5: microscope is going to be right there on our offense.
• 28:52
  Speaker 5: But you know, we have another game tomorrow against one
• 28:54
  Speaker 5: of the best in the league, so we have no
• 28:56
  Speaker 5: time to dwell on it. We just get some rest
• 29:00
  Speaker 5: and I can come back with the good attitude and
• 29:02
  Speaker 5: see what we can do.
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: Okay, Okay, he's right. Something you can do about it.
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: Can't cry about it, can't dwell on it because he
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: got another game tomorrow and it's early so.
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: And the next matchups Yamamoto against Nolan MacLean, which is
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: just gonna be awesome. I just wanted to throw that
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: out there.
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: People get mad when players make these types of comments, like, oh,
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: you just got to go home and all that stuff.
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: It is one hundred percent the truth. It is one
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: hundred percent. How you one have to deal with one
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: hundred and sixty two game season two have to deal
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: with struggles because if you if you allow yourself to say, Okay,
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: I'm Francisco Indoor. I've scored ten runs this year, but
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: I haven't driven a single run in yet, I might
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: have lost it. If you sit there and go and
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: start saying the things that fans are saying about you,
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: you're cooked because the next day you're going to play
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: another game. And the beauty of Marcus Simeon, well, I'm
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: not sure he's gonna have over an eight hundred ops.
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: I would say under for this season is his value
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: is the fact that he shows up every single day.
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: His value is he's the same guy every single day.
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: He's going to play, supposed to play gold glove defense
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: at second base, and that's where his value is. So
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: if he sits there and goes, man, I gotta really
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: start I gotta start stressing about Maya bats. No, he
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: literally has to live on what he just said. His
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: postgame interview might be a boring cliche postgame interview, but
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: he actually was being honest into how they have to
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: play because Francisco Indoor is going to get his numbers.
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: I should have looked it up exactly what Francisco Indoor's
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: numbers are. He's going to do that. He's going to
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: be that guy his entire career. He's an OPS plus
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: of one to twenty. So if you think Francisco Lindor
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: all of a sudden, like contracted some kind of virus
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: in his bat, he's gonna have an OPS of one
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: to twenty. It's just I mean OPS plus of one twenty.
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: So he's going to be there. His OPS will be
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: around right around eight hundred. He's going to do that.
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: So to me, this is when you buy low on
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: a Lindor type of player, to say, Okay, I have
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: to turn it around. I haven't been connected the first
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: I've had some mental gas in these games. And so
• 31:41
  Speaker 3: this team will turn it around. I said yesterday or
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: the day before or last week. Luis Robert is doing well,
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: so that's a bonus. Louise Robert's healthy double bonus. Francisco
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: Alvarez is hitting over three hundred, that's a bonus. Those
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: guys are not going to hit over three hundred for
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: the season. So when your good players come back and
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: they're playing well, your offense is going to do fine.
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: You just can't completely collapse at the beginning of the
• 32:09
  Speaker 3: season and let the let the rest of the division
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: somebody run away with it. But nobody has so they're
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: not in as bad of a shape as you think
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: they are.
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: Right, it just feels like the sky is falling, But
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: the division is pretty solid in my mind.
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: I think you're gonna have well.
• 32:27
  Speaker 3: The Phillies, the Braves, the Phillis Nationals have been better. Yeah,
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: I mean totally, but but the Phillies met some Braves
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: are supposed to be the pride to the top of
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: this division. With the Marlins trying to lurk around the edges, right,
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: the Mets don't hit, and we already questioned their pitching.
• 32:45
  Speaker 3: It's it could be if it gets to be a
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: long year, and ref asked the question, is Mendoza possibly
• 32:50
  Speaker 3: on the hot seat? I mean he could be. I
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: don't want it because I love Carlos Mendoz.
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: He's awesome, but also they just rebuilt the roster and.
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: But what did they make him do this offseason? What
• 32:59
  Speaker 3: do they make men? You dot that's usually means, how's
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: that working out for you? How's that working out for you?
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: That usually doesn't work. I've never seen it. He usually
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: doesn't work. And and and I don't understand like it
• 33:17
  Speaker 3: was it. Okay, I'm gonna go full Davy Martinez here
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: after yesterday where he's where they or Kevin Franzer goes.
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: Maybe it's not the players, Okay, it's usually not the coaches.
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: The coaches are working hard. Okay, it's usually the players
• 33:30
  Speaker 3: aren't playing very well. I'm sorry. I was a player.
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: I got a manager fired. It was my fault. I
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: played like crap.
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: You think you individual, you know, but I mean we
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: as a collective unit.
• 33:41
  Speaker 3: Sure got a manager fired.
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: That was it.
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: We started out owing nine with the Braves. Freddy Gonzalez.
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: He got fired in early May because we suck.
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: That team wasn't good.
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: Our team wasn't good. Right, Listen, the Mets are supposed
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: to be good, but they also change over the whole roster.
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: It takes guys some time, Boba shitt first time switching
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: the team, right, that there's one, right, So it takes
• 34:01
  Speaker 3: guys some time.
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: A little bit team is with a new team.
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying, so it takes guy some time.
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: Sometimes you have rookie benj you have Luis Robert joining
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: the party, you have Boba Chet joining the party, Planko
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: joining the party in a new position.
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: In a new position. By the way, Devin.
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: William Luke, I mean the list goes on tap, the
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: roster turned.
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: Over and guys playing new positions.
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: That combo is that's a lot.
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so we'll see, but I hopeful, hope not because
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: we love Mendy. So what so what if they started
• 34:29
  Speaker 3: out just in fuego, would we have just automatically bought
• 34:33
  Speaker 3: into what the Mets were doing? Think about not if
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: you're legitimate.
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: Like the general public does, living guy with your team.
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: That's how baseball works. You hate your team and then
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: they win five in a row.
• 34:45
  Speaker 3: And you love your team. It's just the way.
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: It's an emotional rollercoaster for half the year.
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: How much how much flak did we get for saying
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: let's pump the brakes on the Mets rotation last year
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: in May?
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: I got hammered.
• 34:59
  Speaker 3: Hey, but to me, this is different with their with
• 35:04
  Speaker 3: their lineup, they have good hitters. Are they all going
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: to struggle? Absolutely not? Are they all gonna land on
• 35:11
  Speaker 3: their feet at new positions. No, absolutely not. They're going
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: to have so there's gonna be things that they have
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: to mix and match. Like I've been on teams where
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: they fired the manager part way through the year, bang
• 35:25
  Speaker 3: pushed all the way through the playoffs. I've been on
• 35:28
  Speaker 3: teams where they fired almost every one of the coaches
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: after we lost in the American League Championship series, and
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: the next year that same team, while I wasn't on
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: that team in the big leagues, made it to the
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: playoffs again and lost in the in the division series.
• 35:45
  Speaker 3: So it's possible. The reality is what AJ said, the
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: players have to do well. If the players suck, it
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: doesn't matter how much the coaches grind, it doesn't matter
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: how much. Very rarely have I seen coaches like totally
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: get in the way. I heard in Milwaukee they fired
• 36:03
  Speaker 3: when they fired Ned Yost in eight like the players
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: were like, dude, this guy's like getting in our way.
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: So they fired him in September when they were in
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: a playoff chase, Like we've never seen that before and
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: I don't think we'll ever see it again. But they
• 36:16
  Speaker 3: ended up making it to the playoffs, Like so very
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: rarely does an actual like coach or manager get in
• 36:23
  Speaker 3: the way like players just had to go out and play.
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: Especially nowadays, the manager has changed the position and the
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: personality has changed. You're just not going to see someone
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: run in as a dictator. And I'm not saying that
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: was Ned. I honestly don't remember that situation. I remember
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: when he was replaced by Dale Swam, but I'm saying
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: I don't remember what the issues were. But it's different.
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: Managers know their role. They're more psychologist versus king. Jackson
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: Holliday is going to sit for a few days as
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: he's trying to work his way back to the bakes
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: some risk soreness for him. He's trying to recover from
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: the hamlet surgery that he had. He has not returned yet.
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: They all happened at almost the same time, Holiday Corbyn,
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: Carol Francisco Lindor during a spring training where I'll continue
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: to say had less injuries than I remember in a
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: long time. And also those three surgeries popped up at
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: the same time, over like a twenty four to forty
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: eight hour stretch, and everyone's.
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: Like, oh no, this is gonna be the new injury
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: in baseball. I don't think there's been one since.
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: It's just a flute thing. I mean, it just it's
• 37:26
  Speaker 3: because you know, a lot of people have never heard
• 37:27
  Speaker 3: of it. Now they're like, oh, look at these three
• 37:29
  Speaker 3: in a row, but it happens all the time. I
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: don't know. The holiday one is weird because he wasn't
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: even on the raidar the Dina was in Baltimore. They
• 37:38
  Speaker 3: had a Jackson Holiday dog ball ahead and his wife
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: throughout the first pitch, not him.
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: Well, he's rehabbing, you know, playing minor league games, is
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: not hitting shore.
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: In the wrist. It's just weird that he didn't come back.
• 37:49
  Speaker 3: Carroll's back, Lindora's back, and he's not back yet. He's
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: still weeks away. Now, That's what i mean. Everyone heals differently,
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: so I'm not questioning that. It's just it's just weird
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: that two of them are back when.
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: I'm I'm guessing severity of injury could be different.
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: No, there's no, it's the same, the same thing. I
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: don't severity of anything.
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'm no doctor, and clearly I mean neither
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: is Crats Krats. One fan called you out on our
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: show yesterday, saying the PCL is actually very important and
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: wrote to us about that, I don't know, I might
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: have time to find it if you want.
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: I didn't. Yeah, I didn't have that injury. But that's
• 38:22
  Speaker 3: totally fun. Don't worry about do you.
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: Want me to find it or you don't care?
• 38:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah? No, no, I definitely want to want you to
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: find it. But Jackson Holliday's been playing. He's got forty
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: six plate appearances in the bushes, so he's been playing.
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: Not everybody comes back at the same He's what is
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: he twenty two years old? Still like the other two
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: guys are a little bit more established in the big league.
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: So you know, he's been playing, and you know it
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: just hasn't been going. If your risk is sore, you
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: gotta If you're risk is sore and you're not getting
• 38:55
  Speaker 3: the results, you're like, okay, we got to make sure
• 38:58
  Speaker 3: we're one hundred percent healthy before we make it back.
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: Richie commented on yesterday show and he loves the show.
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: He said, I love you Krats, but your PCL is
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: very important. As someone who's done jiu jitsu for almost
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: twenty years, I can tell you the PCL is one
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: of the ligaments in your knee.
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: That helps to stabilize it.
• 39:18
  Speaker 3: Thanks doctor Rich. But by the way, does your PCL.
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: Does your PCL in jiu jitsu and baseball is at
• 39:25
  Speaker 3: the same you movement? I don't know. I don't know.
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: All I know is I sat out for I don't
• 39:31
  Speaker 3: know how many weeks it was in the off season,
• 39:33
  Speaker 3: and came back and I caught right away, and I
• 39:36
  Speaker 3: caught the entire season. So I'm just saying, like I
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: never got it fixed. They said, you don't need to
• 39:42
  Speaker 3: get it fixed as long as you have stability in it.
• 39:44
  Speaker 3: I get it. It's one of the three ligaments in
• 39:46
  Speaker 3: your knee. I'm just Rich. Appreciate you being a big fan,
• 39:50
  Speaker 3: but I'm just telling you what the doctor told me.
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: Clearly, not all pcls are utilized the same. I was
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: trying to remember because I replied to him. Then he
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: sent another night snow back. So we love you Rich.
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: Thanks.
• 40:02
  Speaker 3: Anything said before, butt Cratch doesn't matter, just Sam, everything
• 40:06
  Speaker 3: said what before but doesn't caesn't count. So you said
• 40:11
  Speaker 3: you said I love you Rich, but so that doesn't count.
• 40:13
  Speaker 3: I love you South the window. Okay, my kids tell
• 40:18
  Speaker 3: me that all the time. True.
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: One more.
• 40:21
  Speaker 3: Sorry when they're smiling, doesn't count. Yeah, sorry, not sorry.
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: You know who looks really good at the plate?
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: I don't O'Neil Cruz, especially against left handed pitching. The
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: whole story with him and Jim Boden talked about this
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: on GM Territory the other day.
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: He hired a.
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: Essentially a full time left handed BP thrower in the
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: off season, and just give me the left handed pitching
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: all winter long.
• 40:50
  Speaker 3: Imagine that we used to have every there was teams
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: I had that was on that just had left used
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: to throw BP. Yeah, may I had a great year
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: one year and Kevin Hickey r P Kevin love you.
• 41:01
  Speaker 3: He threw BP to me every day. He was left handed,
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: and I was like all for it. And actually, as
• 41:06
  Speaker 3: a lefty, I can there were days where I actually
• 41:08
  Speaker 3: wanted to face a lefty because it actually changed a
• 41:11
  Speaker 3: lot of stuff in your brain. I say, you run
• 41:13
  Speaker 3: a run of righty, righty, right right, and you're like, man,
• 41:15
  Speaker 3: I really like to face a lefty because it makes
• 41:17
  Speaker 3: you focus on different stuff. What about it?
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: Focus like on your angles.
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: It was all about it. I got to keep my
• 41:22
  Speaker 3: angles and I got to stay there. Whereas if they're writer,
• 41:25
  Speaker 3: you're like I can get a little loose with some stuff,
• 41:27
  Speaker 3: but if a lefty, I got to really stay like
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: tight and keep everything lined up.
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: Hey, online crowd were staying on for a few minutes
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: and then taking you live to Hot Sheet. They'll talk
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: about Noah Schultz making his debut to night for the
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: White Sox. This is the ft shop foul territory shop
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: dot com.
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: There it is. There's a little baby model. Buy me
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: a shirt, Buy me a one.
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: And that's pretty much what you wear every day, so
• 42:03
  Speaker 3: you shouldn't have to want to buy you a different one.
• 42:07
