• 1:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah, first year was in Cassemi and then we moved
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: down to west On Beach.
• 1:11
  Speaker 5: A little better than Cassemi. For people that I don't know,
• 1:14
  Speaker 5: it's a little bit of an upgrade. His hosabilities are
• 1:17
  Speaker 5: slightly what you like here in Chicago, land in Mesa
• 1:22
  Speaker 5: with its Sloane Park, with the Cubs fitting in, everyone
• 1:25
  Speaker 5: treating you, everyone nice to you.
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been it's been great. I think it's a
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: it's a great group of great group of guys. Organization
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: has been first class since the minute that I began
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: talking to them in this offseason.
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: So I feel like the mindset's in the right place.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: We've been extremely efficient here during spring training and everybody's
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: been getting their work in.
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: So looking forward to uh getting it started.
• 1:51
  Speaker 6: How long was that process when they first contacted your
• 1:55
  Speaker 6: agent or you know, when you first started talking to
• 1:59
  Speaker 6: the US this offseason, because a lot of people think
• 2:02
  Speaker 6: it happens either in two days or it happens the
• 2:04
  Speaker 6: entire offseason, and we have no idea what the process
• 2:07
  Speaker 6: is like.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we Larry shout right away right when the season ended,
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: and then uh kind of stayed in touch throughout throughout
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: November and December, and things started to heat up in January,
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: and uh I was fortunate enough to get a get
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: a deal done.
• 2:28
  Speaker 5: Everyone just assumed you're going back to the Red Sox,
• 2:30
  Speaker 5: like it was like, oh, Ragmand he did great, they
• 2:33
  Speaker 5: have money, They're a big market team. You're just gonna
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: go back to the Red Sox. I was surprised that
• 2:39
  Speaker 5: you didn't go back to the Red Sox. Were you
• 2:41
  Speaker 5: surprised and you don't have I would love for you
• 2:45
  Speaker 5: to answer, you don't have to, though. Was the not
• 2:47
  Speaker 5: trade thing a thing? Was that really a thing? Because
• 2:49
  Speaker 5: because that was like what everyone said was the reason
• 2:51
  Speaker 5: why you ended up in Chicago and now Boston and
• 2:54
  Speaker 5: the owners of the Red Sox, well, Bragman wanted to
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: be here, he'd be here right.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: So was that was that a thing or was just
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: not a thing?
• 3:00
  Speaker 7: Well?
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: I think first and foremost, I loved I loved the
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: year in Boston. I love playing for ac unbelievable friend
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: and also a manager, and my teammates there were incredible.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: I don't know if if I look back at the
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: beginning of free agency, maybe a little surprise, But for me,
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: this whole, this whole process, the the Cubs really showed
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: that they valued what was important to my my wife, myself,
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: our family, and I couldn't be more excited to UH
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: to be able to raise Knox and Bennett in in Chicago,
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: and I'm looking forward to it. I feel like beginning
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: of the free agent process, for me, it was really
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: important UH to be in a place that I felt
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: like I could win, and Chicago definitely checked that box.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: And I feel like this group UH already made a
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: deep postseason run last year and I looked forward to
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: adding to it and doing my piece and and helping out.
• 4:00
  Speaker 6: Do you feel like you're leaving one of your superpowers
• 4:03
  Speaker 6: in Boston though, because I feel like anybody can look
• 4:06
  Speaker 6: at your baseball card and go through this. Dude's had
• 4:08
  Speaker 6: an unbelievable career. But everything that people talked about this offseason,
• 4:12
  Speaker 6: anybody that's ever played with you, they're like, Breggie's superpower
• 4:16
  Speaker 6: is he makes other players better, especially younger players. When
• 4:20
  Speaker 6: you talk about the rookies that they had up there
• 4:23
  Speaker 6: in Boston, So do you feel like you can still
• 4:25
  Speaker 6: do that here with more of a veteran team and
• 4:28
  Speaker 6: a few younger guys mixed in.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: Well, I feel like it's gonna be a little bit different, obviously,
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: being around a bunch of guys that have been in
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: the league for a long time, and I think it's
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: just baseball conversations. I feel like the best teams I've
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: been on have communicated the best with one another. They've
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: talked the game, They've helped each other improve at the game,
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: whether it's hitting, defense, running the bases, whatever it may be.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: I feel like teams that communicate, teams that prepare to
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: go out there scut are are the best teams that
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: I've been on. And I think those conversations are already
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: starting here here in camp and just attention to detail
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: and focus on focus on getting a little bit better,
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: one percent better. And I feel like all these guys
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: heads are in the right spot and I'm excited to
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: be a part of this group.
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: And it'll be a little different, but it'll, uh, it'll
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: be good.
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: Danzy Swanson's on this team. Does he let you know
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: that he was drafted as ahead of you in the draft?
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: Oh?
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, first meeting, UH, when it was time to introduce,
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: uh introduced guys to the team, he definitely let me know.
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: It's great.
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: So no hard feelings because you know you were too,
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: because you were in the second pig.
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah, not at all, not at all. He let me
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: know that.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: He let me know he was taking first overall and
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: that Vanderbilt won the national stamps.
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: It's been good, it's been good. Banter all around camp.
• 5:49
  Speaker 5: Okay, that's good. That's good to you know. We're not
• 5:52
  Speaker 5: taking it too personal at all, because you know it's good.
• 5:54
  Speaker 5: I like, it's awesome. Uh, you just opened a facility here, right,
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: Why did you do that? And the people that don't
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: know if you want to give a little plug. Is
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: it only for professional guys? Can anyone come in?
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: No?
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: And like old retired guys like me come in and
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: take some swings.
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: Oh, for sure you could come in.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: We launched Nemesis this offseason.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: We wanted to create a one stop shop for guys
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: to come get physical therapy, strength and conditioning, skill specific work.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: We got a nutritionist, sports psychologist, massage therapist, cairo all
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: in one place. And I felt like my first few
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: off seasons here, I was working out in North Scottsdale
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: and driving two hours down to Mace at a HIT
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: and then by the end of the day, I'd be
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: by the end of the day, it'd be five o'clock.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: I'ld be a longer workday than during the season. So
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: I felt like we wanted to put all of everything
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: that you would need in an offseason in one spot
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: and be able to have incredible baseball minds in there
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: just talking the game. And I feel like I feel
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: like all the guys that came in would tell you
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: that the baseball conversations were great. I feel like a
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: lot of people learned a lot from other guys. I
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: know I did getting to pick the brain of Matt
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: Chapman and Ryan McMahon about playing defense at third base,
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: and just created a great clubhouse atmosphere, and hopefully this
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: next offseason will get bigger and bigger and better and better.
• 7:22
  Speaker 6: You got the facility, so you got everything. Taking care
• 7:25
  Speaker 6: for the off season, what do you What did you
• 7:27
  Speaker 6: work on this offseason so that you can have a
• 7:30
  Speaker 6: better year this year or do something that you wish
• 7:33
  Speaker 6: you were able to do the last few years that
• 7:35
  Speaker 6: you now can do this year.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: Well, I think I think first and foremost got to
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: take pride in being available and got hurt last year,
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: so I wanted to make sure that I was healthy
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: for one sixty two in a postseason run, so really
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: locked in on the strength conditioning and physical therapy and
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: just making sure my body was in a good position
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: to succeed. And I think the two things that I
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: want to work on for sure this year is lowering
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: my swing rate, getting it back down into like the
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: thirty thirty five to thirty nine range. I felt like
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: I was swinging a little bit too much the past
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: few years, and that's not necessarily being passive, it's just
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: being more like aggressively selective at the dish and then
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: also making contact further out in front of home plate.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: From April through about May fifteenth, when I got hurt
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: last year, I was making contact back out in front
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: of home plate where I was making contact in twenty
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: eighteen and twenty nineteen and had probably the best month
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: and a half stretch of my career. And when I
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: came back off the il, my contact was a little
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: bit deeper, and I think a lot of that was mechanics,
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: but hopefully trying to couple those two things of swinging
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: at good pitches that I can do damage on and
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: making contact out in front of home plate to do
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: the damage.
• 8:54
  Speaker 5: All right, thank you for joining us. But before I
• 8:56
  Speaker 5: let you go, I have to ask you one question.
• 8:57
  Speaker 5: Is it unfair that LSU has Ain's and Marucci backing them?
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: Do you feel like they have an unfair advantage in
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: NIL because of those two companies?
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: Not at all.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: They also got Jay Johnson, who is the man. So
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: I think that, uh, I think that down in down
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: in bat and Ruge, they love baseball and they're definitely
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: going to support their baseball team.
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: So do you support them more than Kratz supports his
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: universe one hundred percent?
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: I don't even know what who is Kratz's university.
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: Eastern Mennonite Universe?
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: Yes, definitely.
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: Have you given one dollar to l s U?
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: Yes, and then you've already You've already won, You've already
• 9:30
  Speaker 5: won up on Crafts.
• 9:33
  Speaker 8: It's so true.
• 9:34
  Speaker 6: At least at least I went to college, and I
• 9:37
  Speaker 6: give my college that I went to.
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: Okay, good, all right, Greg Me, thanks buddy, you have
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: a great year. Appreciate it.

  Speaker 5: I love the code Territory ten percent off and the

  Speaker 1: food over there in Arizona, sitting next to AJ Michael.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: Great to have you on the show. Thanks for the time.
• 11:04
  Speaker 8: Man.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: How's the off season or how was the off season?
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: And then how's spring training for you? With some fresh faces,
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: do you feel like this team has, you know, even
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: more energy than it did last year, say with some
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: of the moves that they made too.
• 11:19
  Speaker 9: Yeah, well, I appreciate you having me on here.
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: I think absolutely.
• 11:23
  Speaker 10: I think just adding obviously a guy like Bregman who
• 11:28
  Speaker 10: you know, have only known him for a few weeks now,
• 11:30
  Speaker 10: but just just a gamer. You can go into defense, offense,
• 11:34
  Speaker 10: space running the guy. You can tell he's just had
• 11:37
  Speaker 10: a lot of experience and kind of gets the game
• 11:40
  Speaker 10: and obviously has had a lot of success in playing
• 11:44
  Speaker 10: this game and especially in the postseason.
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: Are you the leadoff hitter?
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: Has Count said, you're the leadoff because when you went
• 11:50
  Speaker 5: to leadoff, you took off and the team took off.
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: So were you the leadoff hitter this year?
• 11:55
  Speaker 10: That's kind of wherever my mindset, you know, has alway,
• 12:00
  Speaker 10: he's been just wherever where wherever they want to spot me,
• 12:03
  Speaker 10: I'm going to try and do my best at just
• 12:05
  Speaker 10: given a quality at bat, and you know, just trying
• 12:08
  Speaker 10: to give our our team the best chance to score.
• 12:10
  Speaker 9: When I'm at the place.
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: You like hitting lead off?
• 12:13
  Speaker 10: I do, I do. I also like hitting other places,
• 12:17
  Speaker 10: I think. I think for me, I've never really hit
• 12:20
  Speaker 10: lead off. I hit a little bit of lead off
• 12:22
  Speaker 10: in college, but I never really had much experience lead off.
• 12:25
  Speaker 10: I think one thing that I've learned is just like
• 12:27
  Speaker 10: I love, you know, just having you know, just trying
• 12:30
  Speaker 10: to I'm really good at honing in on my at
• 12:32
  Speaker 10: bat and just having the at bat, no matter if
• 12:34
  Speaker 10: it's the first at bat, fourth at bat. But also
• 12:36
  Speaker 10: there's that added effect of like you kind of get
• 12:38
  Speaker 10: to set the tempo for the game and not always
• 12:41
  Speaker 10: does it go the way that you want it to,
• 12:42
  Speaker 10: but like it's kind of a little nuanced to my
• 12:45
  Speaker 10: game that I've kind of like accepted and kind of
• 12:48
  Speaker 10: have enjoyed.
• 12:50
  Speaker 6: All Right, put this argument to rest, then, because this
• 12:52
  Speaker 6: is a conversation in different cities, not necessarily just Chicago.
• 12:57
  Speaker 6: In Philly, Kyle Schwarber was leading off. You know, a game,
• 13:00
  Speaker 6: Kyle Schwarber does dingers and on base percentage shoe heyo,
• 13:03
  Speaker 6: Tani is the best player on the planet. Maybe not
• 13:06
  Speaker 6: the best hitter, but the best player on the planet.
• 13:08
  Speaker 6: He had fifty dangers back to back years. Does it
• 13:11
  Speaker 6: really matter you only hit leadoff once? People think it's
• 13:14
  Speaker 6: like this, like, whoa, he's the leadoff hitter. You're getting
• 13:17
  Speaker 6: up again and you're not leading off again.
• 13:22
  Speaker 10: Yeah, I think, you know, it's just kind of like
• 13:26
  Speaker 10: it's obviously a little different in the pieces that you
• 13:28
  Speaker 10: have for each team, but you know, again, like entering
• 13:32
  Speaker 10: that leadoff position for me, I told myself it was
• 13:35
  Speaker 10: kind of hard. But like I told myself, I was like,
• 13:37
  Speaker 10: I'm not going to change any anything I do at
• 13:39
  Speaker 10: the plate.
• 13:41
  Speaker 8: You know.
• 13:42
  Speaker 10: You know, you get a lot of talks about it,
• 13:43
  Speaker 10: you're gonna swing at the first pitch, or you're not
• 13:44
  Speaker 10: going to swing at the first pitch. I'm like, I'm
• 13:46
  Speaker 10: probably just gonna like feel out the game, you know,
• 13:48
  Speaker 10: if there's a long inning, you know, in the top
• 13:51
  Speaker 10: of the first Like, I think there's situations like that
• 13:54
  Speaker 10: where I'm not gonna swing at the first pitch. But
• 13:56
  Speaker 10: at the same time, like if I got a guy
• 13:57
  Speaker 10: that I'm ready to be aggressive, and I'm going to
• 13:59
  Speaker 10: continue to be aggressive ittom no matter, you know, if
• 14:01
  Speaker 10: it's leading off the game, it's my third at bat
• 14:03
  Speaker 10: in the in the sixth inning, just trying to like
• 14:05
  Speaker 10: have my at bat, like they put me as a
• 14:08
  Speaker 10: as a leadoff hitter.
• 14:09
  Speaker 9: Not you know, Michael Bush is a leadoff hitter.
• 14:12
  Speaker 10: It's like, I'm just kind of in the position and
• 14:15
  Speaker 10: try to have my at bat and be myself.
• 14:17
  Speaker 5: So when do you decide if on opening Day, if
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: you're in the leadoff spot, that you're gonna swing or
• 14:20
  Speaker 5: not swing at the first pitch?
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: Just like do you have a one, two, three inning boom?
• 14:25
  Speaker 5: The crowd's going crazy and wriglely Yeah, and you walk
• 14:28
  Speaker 5: up there and you're like, I'm tasting myself.
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: I'm feeling it. What's your walk up song?
• 14:33
  Speaker 5: Uh? Okay, so fifty boom hits on those speakers at Wrigley.
• 14:38
  Speaker 5: You're like, I'm going I'm gonna go deep first pitch
• 14:40
  Speaker 5: like you did in the playoffs all those times.
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 14:43
  Speaker 10: I mean again, that's the situation where it's like I
• 14:45
  Speaker 10: don't I don't want them to just have you know,
• 14:48
  Speaker 10: get me over fastball. I mean that could be the
• 14:50
  Speaker 10: best pitch. Rapper did it one year.
• 14:51
  Speaker 5: I remember Happer first pitch of the season, like the
• 14:53
  Speaker 5: whole season went deep in Miami, So you got some pressure.
• 14:57
  Speaker 9: Yeah for sure. Yeah, that was the first pitch first
• 15:00
  Speaker 9: the whole year.
• 15:00
  Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, I mean I would Hey, you know, you
• 15:03
  Speaker 10: never know, but I'm definitely gonna be thinking about it.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: Hey, like Michael Wile, I love while AJ is pumping
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: you up. I'll add on here. So, Uh, last year,
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: big offensive season, I think, and many others did. Got
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: slighted for the All Star Game. Uh, thirty four homers,
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: one forty seven ops plus led the team the whole deal.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: Do you feel like you're a little underrated around the
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: league in terms of being a household name. I say
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: that even with the WBC when we when we were
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: talking about, you know, players to add to the mix.
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: There a lot of Cubs fans that watch our show,
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: where like Michael Bus should be getting more consideration and calls.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: So I'm like, all right, we're starting to hear this
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: pretty consistently. Do you feel like the league sleeping on
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: you a little bit?
• 15:50
  Speaker 10: I think that's like that's one thing I try to
• 15:52
  Speaker 10: balance each and every day. I think the human part
• 15:56
  Speaker 10: of me always, you know, wants to you know, be
• 15:59
  Speaker 10: the best I can hand, and you know, just deserve
• 16:02
  Speaker 10: playing time, deserve certain things. But also like I'm trying
• 16:06
  Speaker 10: to focus on each day and you know, as much
• 16:09
  Speaker 10: as I think about last year and like the growth
• 16:11
  Speaker 10: that I felt like I made, like I got to
• 16:13
  Speaker 10: wipe that one clean and start this year and just
• 16:16
  Speaker 10: you know, try to try to keep growing and keep
• 16:19
  Speaker 10: continuing to get better, no matter what accolades, no matter
• 16:22
  Speaker 10: the individual things that come. Like just trying to get
• 16:24
  Speaker 10: better because ultimately, you know, we're trying to bring a
• 16:27
  Speaker 10: World Series back to Chicago, and you know, I don't
• 16:30
  Speaker 10: want to put obviously I have goals for myself, but
• 16:32
  Speaker 10: I don't want to put any limitations on myself. And
• 16:34
  Speaker 10: you know, the individual stuff, I think for all of
• 16:36
  Speaker 10: us players, like it's really cool to see, you know,
• 16:39
  Speaker 10: the All Stars that we have, the gold Glovers around
• 16:41
  Speaker 10: the diamond. You know, guys getting cy Young votes, Pea
• 16:45
  Speaker 10: getting MVP votes, Like all that stuff is like super
• 16:47
  Speaker 10: awesome and cool for us as collective group. But like
• 16:50
  Speaker 10: I think for me, just like shoving that off in
• 16:52
  Speaker 10: a way and just trying to grow each and every year,
• 16:56
  Speaker 10: no matter the individual success, no matter the accolades, that come.
• 16:59
  Speaker 5: But yeah, you were a Dodger originally, originally a Dodger.
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: Now you're with the Cubs. You saw what PCA said.
• 17:06
  Speaker 5: I'm sure about the the Dodger fans and you know
• 17:09
  Speaker 5: the Cub fans.
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: You know both because you played for both.
• 17:13
  Speaker 5: How good are the Cub fans as far as being
• 17:16
  Speaker 5: there for you showing up every game win or lose.
• 17:19
  Speaker 5: They have to play that dumb song after you guys
• 17:21
  Speaker 5: win every time?
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: What does that mean? He was a player? Like we
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: said that, they're.
• 17:24
  Speaker 5: All after you to be on the All start team,
• 17:27
  Speaker 5: to be on the WBC.
• 17:28
  Speaker 10: Yeah, I think, I mean, I kind of just got
• 17:30
  Speaker 10: chills thinking about it because it's in Chicago. There's there's
• 17:33
  Speaker 10: really no place like Grigley. And you know, the fans
• 17:36
  Speaker 10: from the moment that I've got here, you can just
• 17:38
  Speaker 10: tell that they're they're a different breed. They show up,
• 17:42
  Speaker 10: they understand the game, they want to win, they show
• 17:44
  Speaker 10: up for us. I'll never forget my first year when
• 17:49
  Speaker 10: showeda you know, he's in the sixth inning, he's stilling
• 17:52
  Speaker 10: to no hitter and he was like a eighty five pitcher,
• 17:54
  Speaker 10: so he was kind of up there in the sixth
• 17:56
  Speaker 10: and he came out for the seventh inning and he
• 17:59
  Speaker 10: gets like a standing ovation and you know, you don't
• 18:02
  Speaker 10: really see that very often. Obviously, guys don't no hitter
• 18:05
  Speaker 10: in the seventh inning. But like Wriggley's on their feet
• 18:08
  Speaker 10: understanding that he's hitch Limbit's high. He still has three
• 18:12
  Speaker 10: innings for a no hitter, Like they just like get
• 18:14
  Speaker 10: the game in a different sense.
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: But it's because they're all drunk.
• 18:17
  Speaker 5: Okay, let's let's also not forget they're all drunk by
• 18:20
  Speaker 5: the seventh inning. They're all drunk. Okay, so sorry, sorry Cubs.
• 18:24
  Speaker 5: I love you cup fans, I love.
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: Them, I love you guys adults.
• 18:28
  Speaker 10: But yeah, it's just it's great love Wrigley. And then
• 18:31
  Speaker 10: they to think that they could take it up a notch.
• 18:34
  Speaker 10: It was hard to fathom, but like being able to
• 18:37
  Speaker 10: experience October and them being able to take it up
• 18:40
  Speaker 10: a notch was like awesome.
• 18:42
  Speaker 9: I think it just gives us players, like, obviously you.
• 18:45
  Speaker 10: Want to focus on today and and and the season
• 18:47
  Speaker 10: and regular season and spring training whatever. February twenty fifth,
• 18:51
  Speaker 10: but like, man, we're we got to go to for October,
• 18:54
  Speaker 10: not only for us, but for the city of Chicago, while.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: Aja brought up the Dodgers. One more question on that front,
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: Kyle Tucker goes from your squad to LA. I want
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: to focus on how he was for a year there.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: I felt like in the off season when there's a
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: free agent, then everyone kind of gives their takes, slices
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: and dices, and one of the takes was like, oh,
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: he doesn't want it, or you know, he doesn't care enough.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: What were your experiences like with someone like him, and
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: how would you explain, you know, how different someone like
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: him is versus say and Alex Bragman. There's different levels
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: of how someone expresses themselves, how they communicate, how they
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: act as a teammate. But curious, you got to spend
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: a season with him, what that was like, and how
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: you'd explain that to someone if they called you and said, hey,
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: what do you got on Tucker?
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 19:38
  Speaker 10: I think you know, Tucker was a great teammate and
• 19:41
  Speaker 10: he was always out there, always working hard, always playing hard,
• 19:45
  Speaker 10: you know, always giving a tremendous player, but like a
• 19:48
  Speaker 10: great teammate, he worked hard. And you know, it's hard
• 19:52
  Speaker 10: to say like obviously they're they're just they're two different people.
• 19:55
  Speaker 9: As we all are like.
• 19:56
  Speaker 10: We all have our own little routines, our ways to
• 19:59
  Speaker 10: go about our day. But I think just like very
• 20:04
  Speaker 10: similar in the way that they play. I think they
• 20:06
  Speaker 10: came up in the same organization, played on the same team,
• 20:08
  Speaker 10: but they play super hard. But they definitely have their different,
• 20:13
  Speaker 10: you know ways in doing things in the cage. And
• 20:16
  Speaker 10: but I don't think for any player that that's you know,
• 20:18
  Speaker 10: right or wrong. I think everybody kind of grows up
• 20:21
  Speaker 10: and figures out what works the best for them the
• 20:24
  Speaker 10: ability to perform and the ability to stay on the field.
• 20:27
  Speaker 10: And I think, you know, Bregman and Tucker do it
• 20:29
  Speaker 10: at a super high level.
• 20:32
  Speaker 6: If he had called you in the offseason and said, hey,
• 20:34
  Speaker 6: you know what, the Dodgers are calling me and asking
• 20:38
  Speaker 6: me maybe i'll sign there, what would you have told
• 20:40
  Speaker 6: him about the Dodgers organization that you remembered from.
• 20:44
  Speaker 10: Being there, if Tucker called me, Yeah, If Tucker had
• 20:49
  Speaker 10: called me, yeah, I think.
• 20:52
  Speaker 9: You know, just the people over there, you know, we're
• 20:55
  Speaker 9: we're great.
• 20:56
  Speaker 10: And I think you know, I'm a I'm an advocate
• 20:59
  Speaker 10: for Chicago now, but I think you know, he's He's
• 21:04
  Speaker 10: ultimately gonna make a decision that's best for him and
• 21:06
  Speaker 10: his family. But yeah, I think any team who can
• 21:12
  Speaker 10: add a guy like Tucker is only gonna make themselves better.
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: All Right, you grew up in Minnesota. Yeah, who's your
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: favorite player? Growing up?
• 21:20
  Speaker 7: The same dames?
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: You could say me, Okay, I was a little young.
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: You were a little young when you were. I was
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: a little young when you were.
• 21:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, don't if you say Joe Mauer, I understand,
• 21:29
  Speaker 5: that's fair.
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: That's what I get it.
• 21:31
  Speaker 10: Joe, Joe was you know you could go more, know though,
• 21:33
  Speaker 10: you could go more, No, you could go more Morenau.
• 21:38
  Speaker 10: I think Joe Mauer was probably my favorite player growing up.
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: Can you grow side?
• 21:43
  Speaker 9: But I remember strapping him on the fake ones.
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: They gave out. Yes, I remember those yes yes.
• 21:48
  Speaker 9: Once a week.
• 21:49
  Speaker 10: Tory Hunter though, and Johanns Santana were guys that like
• 21:54
  Speaker 10: obviously people players know about them, but like man, Johanns
• 21:58
  Speaker 10: Santana every time he took them out.
• 22:00
  Speaker 9: And I remember in the backyard trying to throw.
• 22:02
  Speaker 10: His little circle change and you know, gripping it like
• 22:05
  Speaker 10: he did, making it, you know, not go that way,
• 22:07
  Speaker 10: but that way.
• 22:10
  Speaker 9: So yeah, that was a long time ago.
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: You're up there though, Okay, as long as I was
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: in the top one hundred, We're good. We're good.
• 22:16
  Speaker 7: Okay.
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: Uh, Alex call.
• 22:18
  Speaker 5: We had Alex call on recently the Playmaker's classic. Do
• 22:20
  Speaker 5: you know he had a nickname for me when he
• 22:21
  Speaker 5: cause he's from Minnesota. I don't know if you knew
• 22:24
  Speaker 5: that enough. I don't know if you guys played against you.
• 22:26
  Speaker 5: He's a little bit older, but close.
• 22:27
  Speaker 9: Yep.
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: He called me the hitting machine. Was it? The hitting machine?
• 22:30
  Speaker 4: Hit machine?
• 22:31
  Speaker 5: So that's the hit machines. You can see it right
• 22:33
  Speaker 5: on my bio. It says the hitting machine right there.
• 22:36
  Speaker 5: We've added that to my bio. So at least I
• 22:38
  Speaker 5: have one fan. When I was from with the Twins,
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: I mean, you.
• 22:41
  Speaker 9: Probably have a lot of hits.
• 22:42
  Speaker 5: I had a lot of hit me. You can put
• 22:44
  Speaker 5: it up there, yeah, keep it. But it was just
• 22:47
  Speaker 5: Alex calls like man. When I grew up, man, I
• 22:49
  Speaker 5: used to love when you come up. We called you
• 22:51
  Speaker 5: the hitting machine. I was like, you know what, Yeah,
• 22:54
  Speaker 5: that's right, a little extra confidence, you know what?
• 22:56
  Speaker 8: You know?
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: Now, next time I take you bat, I'll have that
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: my back pocket.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: He's going to get a lot of love on the
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: show all year. Anything Alex call does. But but same
• 23:05

  Speaker 1: And what's it like to have some of the new
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: members of the Cubs showing up over these first couple
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: of weeks, guys like Edward Cabrera and Alex Bregman to
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: help your team hopefully get to the next level this season.
• 24:02
  Speaker 7: Than I'm still this Yeah, I'm really looking forward to it.
• 24:09
  Speaker 11: I mean I watched, you know, Bragman hit, I watched
• 24:12
  Speaker 11: the Cabrera pitch, and you know, they're amazing players, and
• 24:15
  Speaker 11: I think having them on my team, I think me
• 24:17
  Speaker 11: and myself like I can level up as a player too,
• 24:20
  Speaker 11: So I'm really excited.
• 24:22
  Speaker 5: Does Bregman does Bregman hit good off of you? Did
• 24:25
  Speaker 5: Bregman hit good off of you?
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: Or do you know?
• 24:27
  Speaker 7: I think it was the must.
• 24:35
  Speaker 12: Done this one thing. I don't know.
• 24:43
  Speaker 7: I was still m Yeah.
• 24:46
  Speaker 11: I faced him last year and he always maintains his
• 24:48
  Speaker 11: like a swing never really like no matter what happens,
• 24:52
  Speaker 11: he always gets his best swing off and he's always
• 24:55
  Speaker 11: waiting for his pitch.
• 24:56
  Speaker 7: And so you know it was it was a tough bet.
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: Did he get a hit?
• 24:59
  Speaker 7: He threw that must?
• 25:01
  Speaker 5: That guy the Mama you remember, don't. I know he's
• 25:04
  Speaker 5: gonna say, I don't remember. He remembers, he remembers.
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: Nine.
• 25:18
  Speaker 7: He didn't get a hit.
• 25:19
  Speaker 11: But there are a couple of pitches that he hit
• 25:21
  Speaker 11: that you know, if if it moved a little bit,
• 25:24
  Speaker 11: you know, I would have dropped it.
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: He didn't get a hit, that's all the matter. He
• 25:26
  Speaker 5: didn't get it hit, That's all the matter. Your velocity
• 25:29
  Speaker 5: was up in your first spring start. Is that something
• 25:32
  Speaker 5: you worked on this offseason camp.
• 25:43
  Speaker 10: Game?
• 25:47
  Speaker 12: Did you even know?
• 25:59
  Speaker 7: Yeah? I means something I looked into an off season.
• 26:01
  Speaker 11: You're looking at my mechanics and making sure, Okay, what
• 26:05
  Speaker 11: parts of my body do I need to train, making
• 26:07
  Speaker 11: sure mechanics wise there's no energy loss or anything like that,
• 26:11
  Speaker 11: and then just maintaining that and so hopefully like in
• 26:15
  Speaker 11: a game situation. My vello was up and that was
• 26:17
  Speaker 11: a result of my goal is to maintain that.
• 26:21
  Speaker 6: What were some of the areas that you saw were
• 26:22
  Speaker 6: some energy losses? Like, what were some of the specific areas.
• 26:26
  Speaker 6: Was it in your legs?
• 26:27
  Speaker 8: Was it in your core?
• 26:28
  Speaker 7: Was it in your back?
• 26:39
  Speaker 12: I know, Joe hanshing know, just got out. So Joe
• 26:51
  Speaker 12: Hans k cool.
• 26:58
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 26:58
  Speaker 11: So it's when my right foot planted, working up that
• 27:02
  Speaker 11: kinetic chain, you know, to my arm, upper body and
• 27:05
  Speaker 11: then my fingertips. I think what I was looking at
• 27:08
  Speaker 11: was when it was landed. I was just using my
• 27:10
  Speaker 11: upper body, so just making sure once I plant my
• 27:12
  Speaker 11: right foot getting that energy transfer from the ground all
• 27:15
  Speaker 11: the way up to my fingertips.
• 27:17
  Speaker 4: Hey showed up.
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: You're you're non participating in the WBC this year.

  Speaker 3: US A, U S A, U s A.
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: Hey, he's playing neutral, all right. Let me let me
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: ask you about some of the other players that are
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: coming over here from Japan to Major League Baseball this year.
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: I know you've probably faced some of them. So Okamoto Murakami,
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: a j is a big White Sox fan, so he
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: wants to hear your take on this one. And then also,
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: am I what's your take on some of these guys?
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: And also were you surprised that some of them didn't
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: get a huge contract like our front office is underrating them.

• 31:12
  Speaker 11: was that we're in there.
• 31:12
