  Speaker 1: Happy Tuesday. I hope everyone had a great weekend. O.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: My voice is not back. I kind of lost it
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: for where'd you go a couple of days. I lost
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: it on Friday doing nothing. I think we talked so
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: much last week that it just went away. I thought
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: it was back, and then I started talking, and it's
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: like seventy percent. You know how players go, I'm seventy
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: percent right now, I'm seventy three percent. I'm seventy three
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: percent right now. You're always a hondo, yeah.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: Because what no one cares if you're seventy percent. You're
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: either you can play or you can't play. Scott, there's
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: no there's no like, oh, let me everyone feel sorry
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: for me. He's grinding through. It's seventy three percent. No
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: either can go or you can't go.
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: Completely agree. One hundred percent is all that you have.
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: I'm like, you're you're going, It's not like, well, I'll
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: kind of just like play it out, bro. See that's
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: to me, that's like nonchalant, nonchalant way of like you're
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: your one hundred percent might not be what you think
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: is your best, but it's still one hundred percent. You
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: can't play one hundred and ten percent unless you're Jake Pevy.
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: Oh, I'm okay out there and give one hundred and
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: thirty seven percent for the boys.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: Well, everyone else is only trying to give a hundred.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: But Jake was the master of it. He would, he would,
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: He had a lot of people.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: Would he say that publicly? Yes, Okay, I don't remember. Yes.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: For after a game he'd be like, oh, I was
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: out there giving one hundred and seventy two percent. What time?
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: Oh, it's It's just not a thing like that.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: It's not. But I mean, listen, I played with Jake
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: PV in two different places. Ah, the boys.
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: I gotta be out there for the Bulls. I give
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: three hundred and ninety two percent. Everyone else it's only
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: given seventy three percent, like Scott Oh, and I'm gonna
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: play my guitar.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: All right. Let's get this one from AJ over the weekend,
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: because it looked like it was one hundred percent done
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: with which playoff teams were involved. Do you feel like
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: there's a little opening.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: I listen, I didn't say any. I didn't say I
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: didn't say that. This is just to get people's responses,
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: which I like, And I was just asking, are all
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: the MLB races decided, except for seating. It's September one.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: There's a lot of separation. I mean, I feel like
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: if you look at the standings, well, namely for the
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: wild card, I mean, I guess the Rangers are alive,
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: but gosh, the Mariners are just there. They're trying not
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: to get into the postseason. Sometimes you look at it,
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: you're like, remember when they made all those moves of
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: the trade deadline and we were thinking, gosh, the Mariners
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: are it. They haven't played any better. They've actually kind
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: of played worse.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: Their starting staff is not the same right now.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: What happened? That was their strength? I don't know. The
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: Rangers are making a run? Do you believe in the Rangers?
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: Though they're nine to one, they won six in a row,
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: so this is their hot streak. There's still what two games.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Back, game and a half, Wells doing the loss?
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: Okay, all right? I mean the National League, I can't
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: see the Reds catching the Mets at four back with
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: twenty five games. At twenty four games to.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: Go, they called up Suth Stewart.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: Well Stewart, by the way, thank you for the twenty
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: twenty one state championship. Or my son, never forget you
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: about thank you, Welcome to the big ones.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: He can hit, he could, they need the bat.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: Great story. So we're playing them in the state championship
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: in the Twin Stadium, and he was of course went
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: on to be a number one pick or whatever. And
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: he plays at Miami Westminster down and he played at
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: Miami Westminster, which is like down in Miami obviously or
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: a rod and I mean Kayevich. There's a whole line
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: of guys that went to Miami Westminster. If you don't
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: know what it is. They had a fence, it was
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: like two hundred and forty feet I guess the ray field.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: So he could hit like a fly battle right and
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: it was. It was a home run. So we played
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: him in the state championship. First a bat, best ball
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: to right, and our redfielders like boop exit, He's like,
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: what wack next to that fly ball? Right? Got it?
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: He was like best ball and the guys just like
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: because it was in a big league spring.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Training, right, so he's used to that part.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: It was just to Westminster and then he got to Yeah,
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: we won.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: So they made a little Yankee Stadium short port over there.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, supposedly, it's like, really, I don't know because I've
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: never seen him, but I've heard it's like super short. Wow. Yeah,
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: but jeoh Sal.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Stewart gotta change your approach. But whatever, he made it
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: to the big.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: League, to the big leagues, and he got a knock and.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: They walked up. Yeah, good for him.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: I mean, listen, apparently he's been banging in the minor league,
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: so good for him. Welcome to the big league, sou
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: But I mean, I always never forget your twenty twenty one.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: It's funny. As we're saying this, Alden Gonzales just tweeted,
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: and I know we'll get to the topic here coming
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: up in one second. Literally, as we're talking about this,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: Alden Gonzales just put out a tweet that said, the
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Red's got key Brian Hayes because he's one of the
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: game's best defensive third basemen, but they also hoped his
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: bat would come alive and a hitter friendly park. Twenty
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: nine games in two seventy four three forty three on
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: base four fifty three slug three home runs, one more
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: than in one hundred prior games with the Pirates. He's
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: just pointing out the numbers have been better, Okay over
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: a month or so span, so we'll see. I mean
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: it's certainly helping the Reds. It's just not enough right now.
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: I daily text my Pirate friend Dave Wisnowsky, Dave, did
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: you see ke Brian Hayes got a big.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: Oh wait a minute, sorry too soon.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: I feel like the Pirates are still happy about it
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: though it wasn't work.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: The Pirates are very happy that this trade happened. Well,
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: I mean, it doesn't matter unless I mean unless Cabrian
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: Hayes goes off and becomes the MVP of the American League.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: The Pirates are very happy.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: National League. But yeah, yeah, that's it.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: It was a contract dumped for the Pirates and they
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: were like, oh, a team in our division will take
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: him for joy.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: I think they said, krats, even if they see success
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: from him. It wasn't happening here, so let's just change
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: it up and.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: Then go spend the money on another player.
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: Exactly, exactly say it with a straight face. You won't. Well,
• 6:17

  Speaker 1: in Poland of some company that's and he came out
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: to like defend it, like the kid was too slow
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: and everyone should be careful or he'll sue them for
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: what staying here an ass?
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: Are you stealing a kich hat?
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: Come on, let's charge the mount. Let's charge the mound.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: Powered by MLB rivals, here's a rivalry Yankees, Red Sox,
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Blue Jays at the top of the Al East. But
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: will it be for long? Who do you like of
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: the three? And are you surprised that it's gotten this
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: close this quickly? We have a full month to go.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: Surprised, because here's the thing. Who do the.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: Yankees just play nobody?
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: Now? Who do they play?
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: Somebody?
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: Astros? Right? They did Jays. They run the gauntlet for
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: the like the next two weeks. Is it gauntlet for them?
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: Astross. It's like all first place teams, isn't it so?
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: Astros for three? Then they're home against the J's for three.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: They stay home for three against the Tigers, they hit
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: the road to Boston. Then it starts to ease up again.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: But what do the Yankees always do? We've talked about it.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: They beat the really they beat up on not so
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: good teams because they can hit the homers and they
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: don't face the best pitching, right, so now they get
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: to go and play. Now we'll find out the next
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: twelve days of the Yankees, now the Red Sox, I
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: don't know who they played, but the Jays at least
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: the Red Sox have Yankees and there Jays have Yankees
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: in there, so in the next two weeks will know.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: My surprise, No, I'm not surprised about this at all
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: because the three teams, the Jays were on such a
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: rocket ship for such a long time. They got that lead,
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: and now it's kind of okay. They're they're still playing okay,
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: but they're they're they're coming back to the pack a
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: little bit. But I still like, I still right now
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: like where the Jays are at. It like they're starting pitching.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: I just think that they're in a good spot. So
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: we'll see where they end up. I mean, they're they're
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: two up in the Wildcard and the Yankees three up
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: on the on the Red Sox, so we'll see.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: And they have a bullpen problem.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: Krats, they do, but I still like their bullpen.
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: I was really hoping for them Jemy Garcia would make
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: it back, it's not gonna happen. I mean just the
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: back to guys, I mean just the end to Nancy's
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: been throwing. Well, he blew it yesterday. Hoffman is good.
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: He hasn't been elite Hoffman. But last year he was
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: elite Hoffman and went to the playoffs and he.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: Was not elite Hoffman the Mets. The Mets figured him out.
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: But to me, when you have Louis Varlin, who had
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: a great outing his last outing against the Brewers, but
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: the two weeks prior, maybe he's still trying to get
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: his feet wet with the Blue Jays, maybe still you know,
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: not understanding how they're approaching hitters the same way. It's
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: not just it's not always just a linear move across
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: the board. To me, you have to look at you have.
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: This month of September will obviously tell where the Blue
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: Jays are going to be. This bullpen has an advantage
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: over other bullpens that are struggling right now. Their starters
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: usually give them length. These guys that go out there,
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: they're giving them like six seven innings, so they're not
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: just getting burned out. And hope Philly Schneider can find
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: a guy like Louis Varland some extra you know, softer
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: landing spots to not have to come in a one
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: run game.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they're frustrated with Violin because they feel like the
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: stuff is there. Yeah, he's just not getting the results. Hoffman,
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: on the other hand, aj has given up fourteen home
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: runs this year. He's got an eighty five ERA plus
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: after a dynamite couple seasons before this in Philly in
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: twenty three and twenty four. Do you trust him?
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: Here's my biggest thing about Hobman is at the beginning
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: of the year he was really good, but they also
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: were using it for multiple innings. He had a lot
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: of four out saves. He was doing a lot of
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: things that most closers don't do. Is he tired? Does he?
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: Does?
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: He a little bit worn down from all of those innings.
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: I mean he's done a lot, and he's done multiple inning.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: Every time I turned it on the eighth inning, Alvin
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: was in the game trying to get us four or
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: five out saves. So I just I think that maybe
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: he might be a little bit tired and he'll get
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: ramp back up and when you know, when it comes
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: to it. But I mean, he's got eight wins. Also,
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: it's a lot for a closer. Eight wins, Yeah, eight
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: and six hawking them victories.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, twenty nine saves fifty seven and a third innings.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: How many appearances sixty appearances? I mean he did make
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: sixty eight appearances last year.
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: I mean we've got a month ago and he's sixty, right,
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: And I know that he doesn't have as many innings
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: as he does appearances, but there was a lot early,
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: especially early where he was four or five outs, you know,
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: but they were really trying to figure it out. So
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: it's furtailed a little bit, but still it's it's you
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: might be a little tired, who knows, We'll see, but dude, listen.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: September first, September second, Now adrenaline kicks back in. It's
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: time to go.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: Okay, they picked up Isaiah Connor fileffa the Blue Jays did.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: They also booted Derek Lowerd to the bullpen for now.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: That'll help the bullpen if he looks like he did
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: as a starter crat.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: For sure.
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: You hope, you hope his stuff translates maybe even up.
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: But again, are they gonna lean on Biaber? Is Bieber
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: even making that that playoff rotation.
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: I get it.
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: You know, he's had two great starts, but Lowers Lower's
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: got to be down there ready to go because he
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: was he was kicking it in the in the in
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: the rotation. It's gotta be a it's gotta be a
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: knock to his not to his ego, but just he's
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: gotta be pissed off about it because he was thrown.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: Well, which team is the bigger threat, the Red Sox
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: or the Yankees or do you want to hear some scheduling,
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: because I think the Red Sox. Yeah, it's soft schedule
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: coming up for them too. I mean, they didn't handle
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: the Pirates too well. They picked up the end of
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: the series, but they lost two out of three there.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: They did beat Cleveland last night. They've got two more
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: against Cleveland. Then they hit the road for Arizona and
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: the at.
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: H s ah is don't sleep on the ath, that's true.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: I just saw a hanchin to the Tigers and they
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: were talking about the Aths and they were saying, it
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: is it is not a fun place to have to
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: go play right now because what I say about the Tigers.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: Remember you guys asked me about the Tigers, and I said,
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: once they play the Royals and they start getting back
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: into it. They get out of Sacramento and it's exactly
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: what Hinch and some of the guys said. We went
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: to Sacramento. The lights are bad, the clubhouses are bad,
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: the field it feels like a minor league park. They
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: said that in Tampa it literally feels like a minor
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: league park. And they were like, it's a hard time
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: getting up, not because they understand it's a big leagu game,
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: but it's hard getting up for a game when there's
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: nine thousand people. The lights are bad at Hinch at
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: one point said he was gonna get ejected. He thought
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: about getting ejected, I don't know what, but then he
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: said he'd have to walk across the field. Was when
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: Scooball was yelling at the MP remember the school guy
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: into and then he gave him the Grand Slam, and
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: Hinch was like, well, I wanted to kind of go
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: out there and protect my guy. But then he's like,
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: I gotta walk all the way out to center field
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: to leave. I can't just go through the dugout. It's
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: like then I'll delay my picture longer and it would
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: have just taken longer. So he's like, screw it. I
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: just had to had to let it ride. But it
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: was it was one of those. It was funny because
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: I never heard anyone say that, because he's like, and
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: then he's like, do I get the card? If I
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: get ejected? Do I wait for the car to take me?
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: Or do I walk? And then I got to walk
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: all the way out there, and I'm not as surpry
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: as I used to be.
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: Well, some people fans will say, who've never played baseball,
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: We'll say bs excuses that shouldn't matter. My question back
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: to you is does a game feel exactly the same
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: if you're playing it in a sold out ballpark with
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: all the amenities that you guys are used to versus
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: if you played on a little league field.
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: No, no, it doesn't. Now now if you do the
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: one off games and crawds, I think you speak. If
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: you do like a one hour like I was fortunately
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: playing four Brag, right, that was cool because there was
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: a tiny park, like two thousand people. You're like, I'm
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: a four brag and there's only military people here watching me. Now,
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: that one was cool. But to go and have to
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: play a three game series in a place you're like
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: but I heard the hotel was nice. I heard there
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: was kind of some stuff to do in Sacramento, but
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: it's far the ball. Like they said, the field was
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: fine and the amenities were okay, but it was just
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: more about just the.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: Atmosphere, so that can be a hell hole. So that
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: there's three there, Then they go to the Bronx to
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: take or No. Then they go home to take on
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: the Yankees. That's the games in Fenway. Then they welcome
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: in the A's, then they're in Tampa in Toronto and
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: finish up with three against Detroit. That's the rest of
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: the schedule for the Red Sox. Do you think they're
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: a bigger threat to catch the Blue Jays or the Yankees?
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: I think the Red Sox okay crats, Yeah.
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: I just feel like.
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: The Yankees haven't been playing their best baseball even though
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: they're playing against bad teams.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: And I can't decide if they're only beating up on
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: bad teams. I can't.
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: I can't decide that. But then when they face a
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: good picture and that picture carves them up because he
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: can hit the locations that these home run hitters don't hit,
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: then my mindset changes. So to me, I feel like
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: the Yankees are a better team. I feel like they
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: can be a better team. Will be Will they be?
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: I don't know, I don't know. I just I feel like,
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: because there's gonna be a ton of like panic moments,
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: the bullpen really carries you through those panic moments. And
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: the Red Sox bullpen right now is one of the
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: best in baseball in the last two weeks, not even
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: talking about just Chatman. What he's doing is historic. But
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: like I guess, I guess today, I'm still leaning towards
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: the Yankees, but I could be easily convinced to lean
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: towards the Red Sox having the best chance.
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: But I don't think anybody catches the.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: Peyton totally looked good too the other day for the
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: Red Sox. It's a nice little addition.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: Should why did we not break that call up? By
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: the way, what do you mean didn't we have the
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: inside scoop on that one?
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: The inside scoop you mean Ken Rosenthal's segment on FT. Yes,
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: Ken broke it. He scooped us.
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: Got us anyway, a little Kenny getting all the scooter.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah he got this like I had him this weekend.
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: I mean all he kept doing was jumping in on
• 19:08

  Speaker 1: We're throwing a curveball at you this week for our
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: Arena Club segment. As AJ has opened up a Pokemon
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: slap pack.

  Speaker 1: it back, baby.
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: I bought it and then I got more money than
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: I paid for the pack, so I sold us straight back.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: You bought it for, you sold it for, and you
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: can go get yourself something that you maybe know how
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: to pronounce.
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: Yes, what it is? I said it because I saw
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: certain people opening Pokemon and they're making money, and guess

• 21:04
  Speaker 1: First start over the weekend in eight hundred fifty four
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: days Quality Start. Did you forget about him?
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: I forgot who that even was. Didn't he the guy
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: that used to rock the rock? Yes, yep, that's really good.
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: I remember seeing him pitch. I didn't realize it had
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: been that long since he pitched, but remember he used
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: to do the whole They were like, is that illegal?
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: It's fun a rule They changed the rule, and one
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: start in he got hurt. They changed that rule in
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: twenty five.
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: You can't. You can't start and stop.
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: It has to be a continuous motion to the plate,
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: even though Nestor kind of.
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: Goes on that line a little bit.
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: But yeah, and then he got hurt and people were like, oh, man,
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: you know he got hurt because they changed the rule.
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: No.
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: Man, that is a long time to be out ashers
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: have had some guys that have had some long iyel.
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: Stints from arm surgeries. But he was.
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: He went out there and did well. All these guys
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: coming back from IL recently have all done well. Bradish Garcia, Bieber,
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: dudes have could pitch in the playoffs.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: Yeh, long absences. I mean this is over two years.
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: I do have a question for you, like a serious,
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: legitimate question, Like I joked with Max about going in
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: as a Dodger. Who does he go in as national? Now?
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: You think over Tigers because he won with the Nats.
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because he won with the Nats, and I mean,
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: without looking closely at number comparisons, he was nasty with
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: the Nats and nasty with everybody right, right, But the
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: longevity of the individual accomplishment plus the title. Yeah, hey
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: we're back. Let's talk n L West for a moment,
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: Dodgers are hoping to get Tommy Edmund back at some point.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: He is taking live at bats right now, first time
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: he's done that since landing on the IL. I was
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: Faby and Ardaya. Also, they added Kim back to the
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: roster with the September callups. They added Copak back. It's crazy.
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: You look at some of the players that get activated
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh, yeah, I forgot they're missing that player.
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: What the Dodgers been waiting on? Yeah? Well, and the
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: Padres are just self destructing with injuries.
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: Right going the other way for them.
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been like whoa, who else came? Who else?
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: There's like the bad boy I think pulled his hamstring
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: the other day. Yeah, it's crazy everyone. I mean, Bogert's
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: going down. I mean, did you see Jason adam as then?
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: I thought I thought he blew it was his squad.
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: I thought he blew his knee out the way he
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: went in to cart him off the field, ruptured, ruptured quad.
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: I never I don't know if I've heard of that one.
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: No, I think that's I think it's kind of it's
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: like it's the tendon. What I read was it was
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: a tendon that connects like above the knee cap, so
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: it technically it is his knee, but it's the bottom
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: of his squad.
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: Not a doctor. But that's tough.
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: All right, We're going to go live to Pennsylvania for
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: our reporter on the Phillies, Eric Kratz, checking in with
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: their latest edition. Yes you can still add players. Now
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: you can't, but you could up until a couple days ago.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: And what do you think of the latest ad?
• 24:13
  Speaker 3: You mean to the lee have ally iron pigs, Walker
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: Buehler or Tim Masa who pitched a scoreless inning last
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: night and is now a left handed option out of
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: the bullpen that they only had Straw and Tanner Banks.
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: But I guess you're talking about Walker Buehler. He's gonna
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: start September twelfth versus Kansas City. They're gonna try six
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: man rotation. This is the beauty of having a lead.
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: Hopefully you can set your rotation for exactly how you
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: want it to go. And right now it looks like
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: it's not gonna be Walker Bueller, but it looks like
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: Christopher Sanchez, Ranger Suarez, and Aaron Nola. How does Lozardo
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: fit in between all of those guys in a in
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: a playoff rotation. That's going to be the confusing part.
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: I don't think Walker Bueller is really just going to
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: help them make that transition to being able to be
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: set for Game one, But then it's also going to
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: help Do they put him on the roster? Do they
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: put him a playoff roster because of what he's done
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: in the playoffs?
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: To me, he's got to show a lot in September,
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: because that's a coin flip if you if you're putting
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: him on the roster, there's been some other guys that
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: have struggled also.
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's got to show them some signs of life.
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he has a good dear, he gets a new start,
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: and we'll see. But I mean, I hope he does
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: well because he seems I mean, people like him. He's
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: pitching great in the playoffs, So I hope he does well.
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: But he's got to earn he's got to earn a
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: chance to be on this roster on this team. Honestly,
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: he's he's just got to earn.
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: It, got to earn a chance to be in the
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: big leagues if he doesn't pitch well over the next.
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: Few weeks, right, Yeah, agree, I.
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: Mean, it's the difference between a major league contract and
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: a minor league invite for next year. If he doesn't
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: pitch well, and it's the Phillies, they're not going to
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: give him a ton of leeway. They're gonna give him
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: what a few starts.
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it would line up that he'd have two starts.
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: It would line up that he have two starts, and
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: possibly the last day of the season he would start again.
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: But if he starts the last day of season, I
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: know they have three four days off before their round
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: would begin, as long as they get that buy because
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: they still have to get the bye they like.
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: If you make that.
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: Last start, most likely you're not you're not making You're
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: not making a roster usually unless it's a must win
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: type of situation.
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: No, I totally disagree with that.
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: He's not making a start in the wildcard series if
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: they're there. But in a division series division.
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: Series, you can make a start.
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a long time. Why a corner look out
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: for the Texas Rangers. Was there a YouTube channel called
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: foul Territory that posted a video that was titled cooked.
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll say it, I still think it.
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: You still think they're cooked?
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: I don't think they're gonna make it. I just don't.
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: I think I think they're I think they're again. They're
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: nine and one their last ten. They won six in
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: a row. This is their hot streak and they're still
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: two games behind. So until you know, they got to
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: keep this up for a while, and at some point,
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: I think the Mariners are going to figure out how
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: to win some games again. I mean lungs. They don't
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: go east, the marinersors go east. Boy, it is big, big.
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: Problem sometimes a team that can get up a spot.
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: That's the thing, like, will this be the Twins from
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: last year.
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: Which are on the Mariners, or the Rangers the Tigers
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: from last year?
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: A little bit of both.
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: I mean, they just lost like three of their best
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: players and they're doing.
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: Better they did.
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: They lost see your and Simeon.
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: Yep, they picked up Dylan Moore, former Mariner. So yeah,
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: I'll give you the schedules because I mean, it's not
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: that hard to put together anymore. It only takes a minute. Right.
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: So for the ms who got smacked by the Tampa
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: Bay Rays yesterday ten to two, they've got two more
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: in Tampa, then they've got three in Atlanta. Three against
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: Saint Louis at home, four at home against the Angels,
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: who always playing pretty well from what I recall. Three
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: in Kansas City, three in Houston, three at home against
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: the Rockies, and they finished with three against the Dodgers.
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: That's the Mariners for you. You want the Rangers. Sure,
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: they've got two more against Arizona. They had a big
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: win and extras against Arizona yesterday. Three against the Astros
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: at home, followed by welcoming in the Milwaukee Brewers for three.
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: Then they're in New York to take on the Mets
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: for three, in Houston for three O. That just sounded rough.
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: Then they get back home to take on the Marlins
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: the Twins, and they finish up in Cleveland for three.
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: Well, the six games against the ass are going to
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: decide it.
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: That's a lot. Yeah, that definitely makes a difference. Can
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: they catch the Astros?
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: The Astros play the Yankees the next three days, right, yep,
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: and then they then they play the Rangers.
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: And I mean, crazier things have happened.
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: Let's say the Rangers win four out of six. Ye,
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: that puts some against the Astros. I mean that get
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: picks them up two full games.
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: The Rangers can pitch, I know, and.
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: The Astros the whole thing is they can't hit. I mean,
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: if there's a chance, but I don't know. Every time,
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: it's like, every time we think the Rangers have got
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: to figure it out, they lose four or five in
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: a row. It's like wait, it's like every time you
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: think they're like, oh, Boach, you's got to figure it out.
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: Go go, go.
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: With the offense.
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, let's I mean, you can break down so
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: many stats. Run Differential would say, oh, the Rangers are
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: going to catch them. You can break down so many things.
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: Which team plays more games on the road, because the
• 29:54
  Speaker 3: Mariners are thirty two and thirty eight on the road,
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: the Rangers are thirty and forty. So whoever plays the
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: most games on the road, they're out. Actually, I don't
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: really care who plays most games on the road. Well,
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: they both have the same exact amount left. Just so
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: you know, I don't think the road the Rangers. I
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: don't think the Rangers have enough to catch them. You
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: can't lose Simeon and Seger. You can't lose Simeon and
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: Seeger and your best starter, I get it to Grom
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: has been awesome, but you've Aldi's just he was just
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: putting up six or seven innings a one run baseball
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: every five days. I just I don't think you have
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: enough to catch them. You can't go nine to one
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: again to continue to make up the rest of this ground.
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: Call me a hopeless baseball romantic, but I still think
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: the Royals have a chance. They're only two and a
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: half back. You want the Royal schedule because I think
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: this is the most favorable one. They have three against
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: the Angels this week. Over the weekend, they stay home
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: for the two wins. Then next week four in Cleveland,
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: three in Philly. They welcome the Mariners in their home park,
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: so you get the road Mariners. They welcome the Blue
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: Jays in their home park, and they finish up with
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: six on the road Anaheim and at h It's not
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: as the easiest one, isn't it? Is it the easiest?
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: Easiest one can then the Royal score runs, man, that's
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: they They have a hard time scoring runs. They have
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: a hard time scoring runs. I'm sorry, but the game
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: I did Saturday, Bobby went hit a home run and
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: that was it. It was really like a Garcian went
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: hit Homersa.
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: Tags is back.
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but he hasn't done anything.
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: Well no, he just came back when he was there
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: before anything. Maybe he finds it though, I mean, do
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: you think he's going to be good prospect?
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: Jan yep, yep.
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: One of the you know, they've got two ones in
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: the lower minors. So this is the kid who they
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: traded away Freddy for me and for and felt like
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: they could replace him with what's the Reagan situation? He Oh,
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: by the way, did you get an update?
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: He threw a two winning sim game. It was a
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: sim game. We watched it from the press boxes. We
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: were dying laughing. They put the the plastic guy in
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: there to stand in there. They put the he walked
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: the plastic guy and hit him a couple of times,
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: so we're like, dang that plastic guy. He's got a
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: rally going right now. In the second it was it
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: was just funny because we were just having fun with it,
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: Like he hit him in the hit him in the
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: foot once, and you know, we could kind of tell.
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: We couldn't tell higher low, we could tell in and out.
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: A couple of times. We're like, well, there's ball four
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: of the plastic guy to the dead guy. He's going first,
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: they have a rally going. If he just gets one knock,
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: he breaks this thing open. We were like, does Reagans
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: know he's not swinging?
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: Was working on?
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: I know, it was just so it was because you know,
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: we're up there and we got nothing to do. We're
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: waiting on a manager meeting, so we're just watching and
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: Hunter Harvey came in and was blowing snot you know,
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: pitching against the plastic guy. The plastic guy was a
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: switch hit or I mean right handed and left handed.
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: So it was it was just one of those moments
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: where if you've ever been in a ballpark for a
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: really long time, that you know you're just sitting up
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: in the press box and you're kind of done with everything.
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: You're just watching this. We just had We just had
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: a good old time with it, laughing at you know,
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: Reagan's trying to pitch to the dead guy.
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: So scouting report is not quite ready against plastic but
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: maybe against flat.
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: Maybe against the real guy that swings. Okay, I mean,
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: I'm like, well here's my skyingport. Just don't swing, don't swing.
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: There's a good chance he watcher command.
• 33:36
  Speaker 3: Fo AJ's breaking it right, now, Cole Reagan's is a
• 33:41
  Speaker 3: four before three guy right now, four balls before three strikes, And.
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: I mean again, he probably was. I don't even know.
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: It was just we were having more fun. Like he
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: just walked the dead guy, he walked the plastic guy.
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: And then the Tigers were all sitting over there watching.
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: He had Joey Korra like just watching like every pitch,
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: and I'm like, does Joey know he's pitching against a
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: non human?
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: That's why he was worried. They also have to figure
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: out Seth Lugo. He has not been good for a while,
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: but he was so good through June.
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: It comes down to this, can they score? They just
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: they don't score enough runs unless they figure out a
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: way to score.
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: Bobby wit Gonna is unbelievable. Yeah, but even the.
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: Game on Saturday, he made two unbelievable plays. Defensively, he's incredible,
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: and then he hit the two run homeward, I mean
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: dead center.
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: You know who's fallen off? Jonathan India is having a
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: brutal year.
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: He doesn't play hardly anyway, I know.
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: But they expected him to be the leadoff guy the
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: whole year. I'm just thinking, like, what went wrong for
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: the offense because you thought India here to set the table.
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: Jack Tags comes up and maybe he'll be one of
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: the better rookies. Obviously he didn't play well and then
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: he got hurt. What do you think, Krats, Do you
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: think the Royals, your former ball club, has a shot?
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: No, I mean they have a shot. Do I think
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: they're gonna make it? No?
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: I don't think they're gonna make it. Maybe India's changing
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: of positions actually affects you're hitting more than people want
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: to lead on. But only he can answer that. That's tough.
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: I thought that was a good pickup. But they got
• 35:04
  Speaker 3: rid of Singer who gives them some length when their
• 35:07
  Speaker 3: starters could have really used. You know, one guy that's
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: going to give you six or seven innings every every
• 35:15
  Speaker 3: five days. But hey, they went for it. I love that.
• 35:18
  Speaker 3: I thought it was a good pickup. Maybe there's a
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: bounce back coming.
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of time left if you're within a
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: couple of games, like, there's time left.
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I just I don't know. We'll have to see.
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: Here's the thing, though, do we believe that these teams
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: that have basically played five hundred the entire year throwing.
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: The Guardians are only four out. Do we believe they
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: have a ten game winning streak in them? Like the
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: Rangers are on their streak right now? Do we think
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: one of these other teams could jump a ten game
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: winning streak even though they haven't done it all year?
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: Guardians, that's that's a little bit of a stretch.
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: The other two they're one game behind the Royals right right,
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: So why is that a stretch but the Royals aren't?
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: Well, what, it just depends on what your line is.
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: Where's your line?
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: So I'm asking when game I'm sure the Royals and
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: Guardians play each other again. Yep, Okay, the Guardians sweep them.
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: Then they're all still in I mean except.
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: For the White Sox in the American League. The Orioles
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: are still alive too.
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: No, you watch the game. They had a graphic. They
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: had a graphic of the race five and a half out.
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: It had like, you know, had the Mariners highlighted, and
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: then it had the race five and a half out
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: as they're like score runs, Bass hit Dinger the right
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: center and then I mean it was four and a
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: half four and a half.
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: But this was this was mid game.
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: They had the five and a half, like believe all
• 36:43
  Speaker 3: these believe signs from their six thousand fans.
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: Was Randy a Roseraina return they did.
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: They did a montage for him on.
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah. He was Babe Ruth for a month and they
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: just liked him in general. He was fun. All right,
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: let's cover this transaction. The Atlanta Braves claim Hassung Kim
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: off waivers from those Tampa Bay Rays. Rays put him
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: on waivers. They signed him this fast offseason. That was
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: one of the bigger surprises. Kim really hasn't done much.
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: He didn't play for most of the year.
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: He hasn't played for a couple of years. He's been
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: hurt from San Diego. He was hurt too.
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: Braves are going to pay two million bucks. So the
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: Raisers are like, whoa two million bucks off the books? Wait,
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: and he has a player option for next year for
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: sixteen million dollars. Now, when he plays, if he's healthy,
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: he's a good player. Will that be the case? What
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: will he do in the offseason? How will he look
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: for the next few weeks? Braids get a look, but
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: it's not up to the Braves, it's up to the player.
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: Is he going to pick up the sixteen million dollars,
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: and I think the Braves are trying to look ahead
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: and they said, hey, I don't see much available short stuff.
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: They haven't had a short stuff for a long time.
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: No, do you know how many home runs from their
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: shortstops this year?
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: Assuming Nick Allen has like maybe one zero.
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: Zero zero home runs from the shortstop position this season
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: next I remember they.
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: Tried, yeah, it all start team, Yeah, but that he
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: had that one year and then after that he kind of.
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: Nose Dave. So they need a shortstop and they're like,
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: maybe it's Kim because they don't like to go hard
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: in free agency. They like to keep their own guys.
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: So this puts them in a position Kratz where maybe
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: this is their shortstop for twenty twenty six.
• 38:34
  Speaker 3: I mean, he has to be the shortstop. It's a
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: player option. There's no like tryout. They're saying he's their shortstop.
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: They're gonna pay him sixteen million dollars to play second base.
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: Are they get rid of Albi's He's not playing third base.
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: Austin Riley's gonna be there for a while. He's their
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: shortstop next year unless I don't know how his player
• 38:54
  Speaker 3: option works. But they have no choice.
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but he's gonna pick it up.
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a chance that he's got to pick it
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: up though. I mean, there's a chance he comes back. Right.
• 39:04
  Speaker 3: If he plays great, he's gonna he thinks he's gonna
• 39:06
  Speaker 3: make more than sixteen million somewhere.
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: Who's his agent, Boris And he's twenty nine years old.
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: If he can prove he's healthy the next few weeks.
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: You know, last year he's coming off a major shoulder surgery,
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: so that's a turnoff for most teams. If he proves
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: he's healthy, there could be a team that throws a
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: little bit more at him. I don't know. I mean,
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: he was really valuable at one point not long ago.
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: And if you believe he's still in his prime, he's
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: still in his twenties, you might get more.
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah. The problem is that the injury, Yeah, and he missed.
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: It cost him the last thirty game forty games last
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: year and then just almost all of this year. Yeah.
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: I mean he's had and he hasn't co eighty four
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: bats this year, and it's looked like crap.
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. He hasn't proven that he can
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: do it, so he has to go out on this.
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: He has this month to go out and play and prove,
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: and if he goes out in Rakes, he could decline
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: that option. But if he doesn't, the Braves, I bet
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: would be happy with him one year at sixteen and
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: a half. No such thing as a bad one year deal.
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: For sixteen.
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he thinks one year deal. There are no
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: bad one years, right.
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: Okay, So it was interesting. I mean, I do you
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: think there were any teams that wanted him? And then
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: the Braves claim him and they're like, what the you know,
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: like a contender that wanted him or no.
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: We'll never know. I guess.
• 40:30
  Speaker 3: I mean the Padres again, Yankees, they already have their guy.
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: If they're not was the guy. Okay, I don't know,
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: just thought of a team top of my head.
• 40:43
  Speaker 3: They're not just they're not just bringing in every short
• 40:45
  Speaker 3: stop possible.
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: Scott doesn't understand it. He thinks it's fantasy. We can
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: just sign up this guy. We can sign up this guy.
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: We can sign up this guy.
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: Some teams do that. The Phillies just did that with
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: Walker Buehler.
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a stash. He's not gonna get him a
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: couple of starts.
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, here's the thing. You can't add via trade. You
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: haven't been able to add via trade. This is where
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: even when we were talking about the Blue Jays earlier,
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: they have a problem. Hey, we could really use one
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: more bullpen out too late. Unless you got a prospect,
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: you call someone up, which is what the Mets have done. Hey,
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: we don't have any starters. Let's just call all the
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: kids up early. It's all you can do.
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we talked, I mean we talked about on Friday.
• 41:24
  Speaker 3: This is a Walker Bueller decision. This isn't like, oh,
• 41:28
  Speaker 3: the Phillies gave Walker Bueller more money. This is a
• 41:31
  Speaker 3: Walker Bueller decision. If he had other options, which I
• 41:34
  Speaker 3: assume you had other options to go to other teams,
• 41:37
  Speaker 3: he chose to go to the Phillies because of whatever reason,
• 41:42
  Speaker 3: opportunity to pitch, maybe you know, the team's good, he had,
• 41:46
  Speaker 3: you know, a chance to play in the playoffs. Whatever
• 41:48
  Speaker 3: it is. This isn't like the Phillies outbid anybody.
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: True. Yeah, with Kim it's hey, we claimed him first
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: and we're taking on potentially eighteen million dollars, which is
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: not nothing. A couple of things from the Brewers, Pat
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: Murphy talking about Shelby. Miller said he felt something pop
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: in his elbow.
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: That's okay because I just text Shelby to come on too.
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: He just got his ten years and yeah he did,
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: so I texted him to come on. He said yes,
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: and then this happens.
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: So now it's just maybe not. We'll find out more
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: details later today already had one. I know that TJ.
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: Pat Murphy on the mizz who hasn't been sailing as smoothly.
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: He's the ras in the forest quote. I think we're
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: learning as we go. We need him as a starter
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: right now, and he's developing as a starter. That discussion
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: hasn't begun about what else could happen.
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: Well, the thing is is that he's been good for
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: like a couple of innings and then he has like
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: a rough when he gets second time through. So maybe
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: is he a closer but Gill's out. Is he a
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: bullpen piece for.
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: Him, a both multi inning That's what I'm saying, A.
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: Bull bullpen guy. I don't know's that's people are talking
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: about that.
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: The Brewers are going to try things scraped in October
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: because it hasn't worked for them in the past.
• 43:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but they've been in situations where they've been at
• 43:12
  Speaker 3: spots to win the game. Hater gave up a ground
• 43:15
  Speaker 3: ball to Juan Soto on a fastball he should have
• 43:18
  Speaker 3: never thrown, and Trent Grisham missed the ball the game
• 43:22
  Speaker 3: was in hand. Last year, Devin Williams gives up a
• 43:26
  Speaker 3: home run to Pete Alonzo. I think it was a
• 43:28
  Speaker 3: second home run to a right hander. It's only home
• 43:31
  Speaker 3: run off of a changeup all year. Like they've been
• 43:34
  Speaker 3: in situations like I don't think they're going to just
• 43:37
  Speaker 3: remake their entire roster. Jacob Mizerowski has not shown that
• 43:43
  Speaker 3: he is a reliable, full start type of pitcher. Maybe
• 43:48
  Speaker 3: they bring him in, he starts the game and he
• 43:50
  Speaker 3: throws one time through the order, kind of a you know,
• 43:54
  Speaker 3: a bulk starter instead of a bulk reliever, and then
• 43:58
  Speaker 3: they go to their bullpen guys. It's not going to
• 44:00
  Speaker 3: be extreme. I don't see them transitioning him to being
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: their closer.
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: Would you rather rather have him as a bulk starter
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: or a bulk reliever in the postseason?
• 44:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, if you're you're gonna go Freddy Quintana, Woody
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: wood Drew, who's your who's your fourth Quinn priesterin pries
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: they're they're like undefeated when he pitches. Get to Mazowski
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: is a bulk reliever. He had a big strikeout. Bring
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: him in to throw one hundred and seven for one hitter,
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: or isn't that the new wave fave thing to do?
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: Injuries suck. Taylor Ward had a brutal injury out in
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: left field the other day, smashing into the out of
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: town scoreboard, which is full of what looks like flush metal.
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: He has about twenty stitches above his right eye. For
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: the Angels outfielder, he's otherwise okay this according to Jeff
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: Fletcher of the Orange County Register. He said, cleared of concussion,
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: slept well, thinks only a couple of days resk and
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: can return to the lineup.
• 45:03
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: The phase of this that I want to address is
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: his fellow outfielder Joe Adele, who said, quote, he's doing
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: what he's supposed to do. He's being aggressive on a
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: play at the bottom line. And I've talked about this before.
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: There should be no out of town metal scoreboard anywhere
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: on the baseball field. It's the big leagues. This bleep
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: is ridiculous. A guy goes back to make a play
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: and he's got to worry about a metal fence. That's crazy.
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: So that's my honest opinion about it. He did everything
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: he could to make a play and he gets beat
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: up by something that's beyond controllable. Should we have metal
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: out of town scoreboards? Just raise it, make it so
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: you can't run into it, So you can't.
• 45:39
  Speaker 2: Run into it. I don't think everything else. All the
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: metal should be padded if possible. But I've seen guys
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: get like their jerseys stuck on it. Same as the
• 45:46
  Speaker 2: Green Monster, the Green Monsters metal, right, the whole thing.
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: Green Monsters metal. Didn't bryce the Green Monster pat it
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: for you. Scott didn't bryce run into metal? Somewhere was
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: that in la That.
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: Was Judge, You remember Judge, Well that was on the concrete.
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: Yes, in l A.
• 46:03
  Speaker 3: Aaron ruff ran into metal, ran into the metal of
• 46:05
  Speaker 3: the of the tarp, split his knee open.
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: Aaron Rowan got better looking when he ran into a
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: thing in center field in Philly.
• 46:14
  Speaker 3: They had to change that. That was the first year
• 46:16
  Speaker 3: it was open. They had to change it.
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: Okay, so let's play the game. You're the Houston Astros.
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: This happens, and you've done changes before you did a
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: little makeover. Tals Hill's gone it would you either get
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: rid of it or put a pad over it or
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: raise it.
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: You got to raise it, that's it. You got to
• 46:34
  Speaker 2: raise it and make the letter smaller.
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: Do you think they'll do anything? Why not?
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: I think they will. But it won't be this season, no,
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: of course.
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: But next year we do something. Do we need it?
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: Did? Okay? In Boston? What do you do in Boston?
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: You know outfielders, No, not to run into the metal
• 46:49
  Speaker 2: scoreboard at Boston. There's little hooks that the little things,
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: the little things hang on. There's little hooks out there.
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: Can't we make it so that it's no one's ever?
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: Metal is traditions.
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: How do you think they hang the little the numbers
• 47:03
  Speaker 2: on on the inside. They don't. You better check it.
• 47:08
  Speaker 3: They don't bring anybody. It's all from the inside. They
• 47:13
  Speaker 3: do on some of them, they do.
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: Not putting it on. Yeah, Boston, they have a little
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: guy that runs out and runs back in. No, yes.
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: He do all right, guy.
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: That climbs the ladder sometimes.
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: Okay, I just want to be clear on this. You
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: guys don't think that a place that has history with
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: metal should fix it right, Like in Fenway, you think
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: they should keep metal because it's always been there.
• 47:44
  Speaker 2: Yes, people know not to go face first into the metal. Okay,
• 47:48
  Speaker 2: they stopped hurt and listen. This is not a knock
• 47:50
  Speaker 2: on Taylor Ward at all. It was just a crappy look.
• 47:54
  Speaker 2: He did everything right. But if anyway, people don't go
• 47:58
  Speaker 2: barreling into it. You saw a Tory Hunter when he
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: tried to catch David Ortiz's grand slam. He went ass
• 48:03
  Speaker 2: over tea kettle.
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: Do we want sick athletic plays? If we do, we
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: should try and make it so that there's not a
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: problem when you do it.
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: Okay, we want sick athletic plays in football, but we
• 48:13
  Speaker 2: don't ban tackling.
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: Is that an accurate analogy?
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: Very accurate?
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: Okay, fine, I'm sasking in.
• 48:24
  Speaker 2: Houston, they can raise the pad in any way. They
• 48:27
  Speaker 2: can't do anything. In fend Way. They can't do what
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: they can't. It's it's there.
• 48:32
  Speaker 3: I think Joe Adell, Joe Adell was being honest. He
• 48:35
  Speaker 3: saw his teammate leacoln pretty good like it was immediate
• 48:39
  Speaker 3: and he was being honest. And I think this is
• 48:43
  Speaker 3: a situation. Yes, they could take that one row of
• 48:47
  Speaker 3: scores out and raise the pad just so it's player height.
• 48:53
  Speaker 2: But I mean, look at look at our boy, Rowdy Telez.
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: You can't.
• 48:56
  Speaker 3: You can't cover every injury. Raley tells jumped for a
• 49:00
  Speaker 3: ball and his finger got caught in pilatest skins.
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: This finger. You try your.
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: Best, Okay, Yeah, just asking, just shocking. Anyway, we're going
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: to swing back to a longer last segment. Why because
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: we had some transactions. Something occurred called the dump deadline,
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: and it led to a pickup for one team, actually
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: two pickups. And then also probably the best reliever in
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: baseball this year got paid a little more. So we'll
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: cover both of those things next. Let's lap. First off,
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: congrats to Eraldus Chapman racking up one year about thirteen
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: million bucks on a contract extension. There is a vesting option.
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: If he gets to forty innings pitched, you would add
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: count it. Let's see thirteen million dollars for twenty twenty seven.
• 49:55
  Speaker 2: She always seems like he pitches a lot.
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: He pitches a lot. I mean he is ridiculous this year.
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: Right, he knows where it's going, Yes, he does. It's
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: walk greats.
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: Down fastball again, he wasn't able to do that for
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: a long time. He's mostly split and slider. You get
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: there for strike, fastball is just show.
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: Now he's got it all.
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: He's got all of them.
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: This might be the best version of our oldest Chapman ever,
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: krats your former boy, former teammate, ever.
• 50:23
  Speaker 3: I would have to look at ever years. He had
• 50:26
  Speaker 3: some pretty Oh absolutely, his era is there, But there
• 50:31
  Speaker 3: were some years where he was punching some dudes out.
• 50:35
  Speaker 3: He's gonna get close, and that's what that's what they're
• 50:38
  Speaker 3: gonna say. You know, if you're I mean, there's no
• 50:42
  Speaker 3: there's no way of Diyson. The dude's thirty seven years old.
• 50:44
  Speaker 3: His velocity, I think it was the day that Ben
• 50:48
  Speaker 3: Joyce a year or two ago. Ben Joyce hit one
• 50:50
  Speaker 3: hundred and five, and he came out and hit one
• 50:52
  Speaker 3: hundred and four like it was a completely different game.
• 50:55
  Speaker 3: He sees it, he knows. He also announs how to
• 50:58
  Speaker 3: stay healthy. When you're talking about forty, he needs to
• 51:01
  Speaker 3: throw forty innings. He hasn't not thrown forty innings since
• 51:07
  Speaker 3: Oh sorry, there was Oh no, no, no, it was
• 51:12
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty two when he had that year where he
• 51:14
  Speaker 3: went home at the end of the year and he
• 51:17
  Speaker 3: said they told him it wasn't gonna be on the roster,
• 51:19
  Speaker 3: so he didn't come back. That was a little scuttle butt.
• 51:23
  Speaker 3: But before that, it was twenty ten. His rookie year
• 51:31
  Speaker 3: was the last time he didn't throw forty innings. So
• 51:35
  Speaker 3: they basically signed him to a two year, twenty six
• 51:37
  Speaker 3: million dollar deal.
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: It's a good deal. I think he would have gotten
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: more in the free agent market.
• 51:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he likes Boston's happy there. Yeah great, I think.
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: He would have gotten two years thirty five.
• 51:47
  Speaker 2: Maybe definitely happy. He's happy in a place. Why can't
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: someone just.
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: Beca doesn't matter? Yeah, No, it's great, great move. Hey,
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: it's a fit in Boston. They've got a lockdown closer,
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: two minutes to go. The stage is yours.
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: No, I just want to say, you know, I had
• 52:00
  Speaker 2: this spider problem. I've just built a new dock from
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: the hurricane. Took forever to get it permitted. Stuff. I
• 52:05
  Speaker 2: just built a new dock and I had a spider
• 52:07
  Speaker 2: infestation on the new dock and saw that put a
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: video on Instagram and Twitter, and people were saying burn
• 52:13
  Speaker 2: it down. I'm not going to burn down my dock. People,
• 52:15
  Speaker 2: I just didn't build you. I know they were kidding,
• 52:17
  Speaker 2: but it took. It took, it took a lot, and
• 52:20
  Speaker 2: there's you know, I got rid of most of them.
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: Powerwasher and some spray. I'll do wonders. But took all
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: day yesterday. So on Labor Day, I was not taking
• 52:27
  Speaker 2: the day off. I was out on my dock all
• 52:28
  Speaker 2: day labor labor with a powerwasher and spray and had
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: to take the boat out and then clean in and
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: clean under the cover of the boat. And it's been
• 52:37
  Speaker 2: a it's been a day.
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: And then I went out this morning.
• 52:39
  Speaker 2: There were still some stragglers, but they got asa. So
• 52:43
  Speaker 2: my new favorite thing is a powerwasher. And some bugs break.
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: So spiders hate you.
• 52:47
  Speaker 2: That's fine, it's fine. I'm sorry, Toby McGuire. I'm sorry.
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: Cubs fans and spiders are now best friend.
• 52:52
  Speaker 2: That's fine. I'm okay with it. But listen, people, you
• 52:54
  Speaker 2: know I love I thank you for all the advice.
• 52:56
  Speaker 2: But people that are saying it burn it down, I mean, come.
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: On, they were probably kidding.
• 53:02
  Speaker 2: They've probably had a rachnophobia too. Yeah. Or move, They're like,
• 53:06
  Speaker 2: burn it down or move. Well, I'm not moving. But
• 53:08
  Speaker 2: I did call my pest company. They wouldn't do anything
• 53:10
  Speaker 2: about it.
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: Why, I don't know.
• 53:12
  Speaker 2: Today. This is what I'm gonna start doing since I'm
• 53:14
  Speaker 2: now an empty nester. Every day I have a project,
• 53:17
  Speaker 2: so I should start recording him and putting on Instagram.
• 53:20
  Speaker 2: You said, yeah, today I got to change the garage
• 53:22
  Speaker 2: door batteries because their beefingers are dead.
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: That's not as fun as this spider.
• 53:26
  Speaker 2: I'm climbing on the roof to kill wasp with us.
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: That's more fun. That's more fun. But yeah, I put
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: them all up you on the roof. It's definitely entertaining.
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: That's like fear factor. But in case I die, will
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: he live? Will he live? He made it. He's back
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: on f two the next day.
• 53:43
  Speaker 3: You're not an empty nester. You're a spider NESTERO or
• 53:47
  Speaker 3: a nester.
