- 0:33Speaker 1: And on the other side, were they Vladimir Guerrero Junior
- 0:37Speaker 1: Blue Jays really the better team in the World Series?
- 0:40Speaker 1: One of their announcers said that. And what grade are

- 1:05Speaker 1: the beginning of another hour of The Ben Mahlor Show.
- 1:09Speaker 1: We are in the air everywhere in your face as
- 1:17Speaker 1: we provide safe neighborhoods for all we do coast to coast,
- 1:21Speaker 1: border to border and beyond on the vast and considerably
- 1:27Speaker 1: powerful microphones of FSR emmnating live from the marathon, Not
- 1:33Speaker 1: the New York Marathon, it's the Mike Marathon, as we
- 1:37Speaker 1: are talking into these mics all night long from the
- 1:39Speaker 1: world famous Fox Sports Radio studios, as approved by Scrooge,
- 1:44Speaker 1: who's in the younger demo in northern California. He is
- 1:49Speaker 1: this portion of the Ben Mal Show made possible in
- 1:52Speaker 1: part by our friends at Tiraq. That's right, Tyraq. For
- 1:55Speaker 1: over forty years, Kathy and Madison and Ruth know that
- 1:58Speaker 1: ti Iraq has been helping customers find the right tires
- 2:00Speaker 1: for how, what and where they drive. Even for JJ
- 2:04Speaker 1: and Retten ship fast and free back by free road
- 2:06Speaker 1: hazard protection with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation,
- 2:12Speaker 1: tyre rac dot com, the way tire buying show me
- 2:17Speaker 1: so our lead. This hour is the post mortem on
- 2:21Speaker 1: the scene there in Toronto. Over the weekend Friday and Saturday,
- 2:25Speaker 1: we did a Mallard monologue on the Fifth Hour podcast
- 2:28Speaker 1: about Game seven. But the post mortem continues. As the
- 2:32Speaker 1: curtain has come down on the twenty twenty five baseball
- 2:35Speaker 1: season and the Fall Classic, which was El Classico. What
- 2:41Speaker 1: an ending there, Miguel Rojas who sucks hit a home
- 2:44Speaker 1: run to tie the game in the ninth with one out,
- 2:46Speaker 1: and then will Smith, the fresh Prince, gets it done there.
- 2:50Speaker 1: He won it in the eleventh for the Dodgers. They
- 2:53Speaker 1: become the first back to back champs in the National
- 2:57Speaker 1: League since the Big Red Machine of the nineteen seventies,
- 3:00Speaker 1: the first in baseball since way back in the nineties
- 3:03Speaker 1: when Jerry Seinfeld had the top show on television and
- 3:06Speaker 1: Bernie Williams and Derek Jeter and Jorge Posada and those
- 3:10Speaker 1: Yankees were getting it done. If you remember those teams,
- 3:12Speaker 1: that means you're old and they were good. They were good,
- 3:15Speaker 1: and they won three in a row. So now people
- 3:17Speaker 1: are doing the autopsy on the season and the Dodgers
- 3:21Speaker 1: and the Blue Jays and all that, and what the
- 3:23Speaker 1: dominance of the Dodgers. They were not dominant in terms
- 3:26Speaker 1: of winning the stat sheet in the World Series, but
- 3:29Speaker 1: they ended up winning the World Series. They were supposed
- 3:31Speaker 1: to win the World Series. They actually underachieved during the
- 3:33Speaker 1: regular season. They ended up winning. It was rather easy
- 3:36Speaker 1: until they got to the World Series for the Dodgers,
- 3:38Speaker 1: and so what does it all mean? Specifically the quote
- 3:43Speaker 1: and it is the money quote Dave Roberts after the
- 3:46Speaker 1: National League Championship Series. When he gave the quote, he said,
- 3:49Speaker 1: they said the Dodgers are ruining baseball. Roberts said, let's
- 3:53Speaker 1: go get four more wins and really ruined baseball. Okay,
- 3:57Speaker 1: that's a good jumping off point. Let us discuss the
- 4:00Speaker 1: question now that they've got those last four wins and
- 4:05Speaker 1: another championship parade which will be coming up later today
- 4:08Speaker 1: in Los Angeles, will Dave Roberts be proven right regarding
- 4:14Speaker 1: his prediction, his premonition that the Dodgers I have ruined baseball?
- 4:19Speaker 1: Will the Dodgers end up having ruined baseball by winning
- 4:23Speaker 1: this World Series? So on this one, I've got a flamingo,
- 4:25Speaker 1: floating bikinis and bread and milk, and we will combine
- 4:31Speaker 1: all of these things together and we are going to
- 4:35Speaker 1: make some delicious mats of ball soup, just like your
- 4:41Speaker 1: your grandma would make your babushka. All right, now, first
- 4:43Speaker 1: of all, to answer the question the Dodgers winning the
- 4:47Speaker 1: World say, is, will Dave Roberts be proven right? Have
- 4:49Speaker 1: they now ruined baseball. I'm gonna go no on this.
- 4:53Speaker 1: This will be used against the Dodgers, and it'll be
- 4:56Speaker 1: used against the top teams in baseball. That does not mean, though,
- 5:00Speaker 1: that this is going to be the end of baseball
- 5:03Speaker 1: as we know it. They'll be dramatic changes. And if
- 5:06Speaker 1: you look at the way baseball's done business, most of
- 5:09Speaker 1: the problems in baseball are self inflicted. They just are
- 5:13Speaker 1: by the management people in baseball. The Dodgers just showed
- 5:17Speaker 1: everyone how whack a doodle the people that run baseball
- 5:21Speaker 1: teams are. And you've the problem that I look at
- 5:24Speaker 1: when I look at baseball. The problem is you've got
- 5:26Speaker 1: about half the teams in baseball that don't want to win.
- 5:30Speaker 1: They don't they don't try to win. They run their
- 5:33Speaker 1: shop like it's a garage sale. Every summer, they pick
- 5:36Speaker 1: up players, trade deadline, who can we get rid of
- 5:40Speaker 1: save a couple of bucks. They do the shuffle. There's
- 5:43Speaker 1: that part of it, and then there's just the Some
- 5:45Speaker 1: teams don't even try to add good players to the roster.
- 5:48Speaker 1: They don't spend any money. And the Dodgers, they they're
- 5:51Speaker 1: not a garage sale. They operate like a fortune five
- 5:54Speaker 1: hundred company is what they do. It's not competition, it's
- 5:57Speaker 1: capitalism on steroids. With the Dodgers have been a blue do.
- 6:00Speaker 1: They found loopholes. Players don't like to play in California
- 6:04Speaker 1: because if Gavin Newsom and the taxation, so the players
- 6:06Speaker 1: get paid when they retire and they don't have to
- 6:08Speaker 1: pay California taxes. So it's a great way to do it.
- 6:11Speaker 1: But if you look at the numbers here, right, the
- 6:13Speaker 1: last ten years, there has been only one team that
- 6:17Speaker 1: has won the championship outside the top ten in payroll,
- 6:21Speaker 1: actually twenty twenty one Atlanta Braves. But that Atlanta Brave team.
- 6:25Speaker 1: What they did is they finagled the salary and they
- 6:28Speaker 1: signed players that would have made a lot more money
- 6:31Speaker 1: to team friendly deals like Ronald Lacuno Junior, who was
- 6:34Speaker 1: hurt that year anyway, but he was on the roster
- 6:36Speaker 1: and so their payroll was a result of some team
- 6:39Speaker 1: friendly contracts. So the answer again is one the last decade,
- 6:43Speaker 1: there's been one team not in the top ten at
- 6:45Speaker 1: the start of the year in payroll that won the
- 6:46Speaker 1: World Series, and so most of Major League Baseball here's
- 6:50Speaker 1: the issue, right, here's the issue. Most of Major League
- 6:54Speaker 1: Baseball is sitting on a pink flamingo floating in the pool.
- 7:00Speaker 1: Not in the pool, not in the ocean, in the sewer. Okay,
- 7:05Speaker 1: with all the vermin, they're sitting and they're floating around
- 7:08Speaker 1: on the pink flamingo, floating of mediocrity right there in
- 7:12Speaker 1: the sewer. And I did the malord math on this,
- 7:15Speaker 1: and by my count, there are roughly twelve teams. There's
- 7:18Speaker 1: only thirty in baseball, so that's forty percent twelve teams.
- 7:22Speaker 1: That includes the Pirates, the A's, the White Sox, the Angels,
- 7:27Speaker 1: the Rockies who aren't even trying to win, the Marlins,
- 7:31Speaker 1: teams like that. These owners are not rebuilding, even though
- 7:35Speaker 1: that's an annoying word. They're just collecting interest, is what
- 7:38Speaker 1: they're doing. You run a bad baseball team, You run
- 7:43Speaker 1: a bad baseball team. It's kind of like owning a
- 7:45Speaker 1: strip mall passive income. There's not any real accountability. Yeah,
- 7:52Speaker 1: you're not taking You're investing in the minor league system,
- 7:55Speaker 1: is what you're doing. And you slap that word. This
- 7:57Speaker 1: is one of the great sucker words, one of the
- 7:59Speaker 1: great weasel words of all time. Rebuild. We are going
- 8:02Speaker 1: to rebuild. We are going to charge major league prices,
- 8:05Speaker 1: big league prices. We're gonna charge okay, and the low
- 8:09Speaker 1: information fan will get an inferior product. But they're gonna
- 8:13Speaker 1: be like on board. Why are they gonna be on board?
- 8:15Speaker 1: Because we're gonna be really good in twenty thirty one.
- 8:19Speaker 1: We are gonna be so great. Yes, we're going to
- 8:22Speaker 1: absolutely blow for the next six years. But let me say,
- 8:26Speaker 1: twenty thirty one is great, and then when they get
- 8:28Speaker 1: to twenty thirty one, it's gonna be well, we need
- 8:30Speaker 1: a couple of extra years. Okay, twenty thirty three, perfect done,
- 8:33Speaker 1: Way to go. Meanwhile, the Dodgers, they're the Amazon, not
- 8:38Speaker 1: the TMU. They're the Amazon of baseball. Massive operation, endless money,
- 8:43Speaker 1: every possible edge, run by the nerds, all of that, right,
- 8:48Speaker 1: and the Dodgers. People get all upset. They get all, oh,
- 8:51Speaker 1: it's not fair. Booooo, it's not fair. People get all upset.
- 8:56Speaker 1: And the Dodgers are playing the system right. Of course,
- 8:59Speaker 1: they're playing the system better than everyone. The same system
- 9:01Speaker 1: is available to the White Socks and the Rockies. They
- 9:04Speaker 1: choose not to do it. They choose not to do it.
- 9:06Speaker 1: The problem is that Dodgers spend more of their revenue
- 9:10Speaker 1: on reinvesting in the team than anyone else in baseball,
- 9:14Speaker 1: a higher percentage of the revenue the Dodgers make from
- 9:18Speaker 1: all the TV and all that stuff, they reinvest in
- 9:20Speaker 1: the team. And teams like the Pirates and the A's
- 9:24Speaker 1: and the teams like that. They don't do that because
- 9:26Speaker 1: they're making money. Why would they do that. They'd make
- 9:29Speaker 1: less money if they did that. And was crying about
- 9:32Speaker 1: a nuclear winter coming for baseball. There's gonna be a
- 9:35Speaker 1: long workstoppage, and the Dodgers are bad guys. The Dodgers
- 9:38Speaker 1: are the bad guys. And no, the bad guys are
- 9:41Speaker 1: the owners of the teams that aren't even trying to
- 9:43Speaker 1: put a competitive team on the field. That you know,
- 9:46Speaker 1: there's chatter there's gonna be a long work stoppage in
- 9:48Speaker 1: baseball and they're gonna put a cap and a salary
- 9:51Speaker 1: cap floor. And I could do ten minutes on how
- 9:54Speaker 1: ridiculous the salary cap floor is and what suckers you are,
- 9:56Speaker 1: and how dumb you are to think that you're gonna
- 9:59Speaker 1: get out of this and the salary cap floor is
- 10:02Speaker 1: going to save you. Maybe I'll do something later in
- 10:05Speaker 1: the week on that. I don't have time to get
- 10:06Speaker 1: into it right now, but it's one of the more
- 10:07Speaker 1: ridiculous points made that I've heard. You need a salary
- 10:10Speaker 1: cap floor, so teams like the White Sox and the
- 10:12Speaker 1: A's and the Marlin spend more money. Trust me, that
- 10:15Speaker 1: will not go the way you think it's going to go.
- 10:17Speaker 1: It will not, I promise you. I'll explain more later
- 10:20Speaker 1: in the week in a future episode. And So if
- 10:23Speaker 1: ruining baseball, which the Dodgers have been accused of, if
- 10:25Speaker 1: you're ruining baseball. If that's the case, so the Dodgers
- 10:29Speaker 1: are running baseball because they're trying to win championships every year,
- 10:33Speaker 1: you are the bad guys. Think about how fed up
- 10:36Speaker 1: and backwards you are as an industry when you're shaming
- 10:40Speaker 1: a team that is going above and beyond the call
- 10:42Speaker 1: of duty to win championships. And you're the bad guy,
- 10:45Speaker 1: my fat ass, you're the bad guy. You play to
- 10:48Speaker 1: win the game exactly, exactly, Ay, five percent of the
- 10:51Speaker 1: world's working. The other fifteen percent come out here. It's
- 10:54Speaker 1: a playground for the blank blanks. It's not right. It
- 10:57Speaker 1: shows you just how backwards the sport of baseball is,
- 11:00Speaker 1: And if you were an employee, would you rather work
- 11:05Speaker 1: for a team like the Dodgers, or would you rather
- 11:07Speaker 1: work for a team like the Athletics who play in
- 11:10Speaker 1: a minor league ballpark in Sacramento and have Bush League
- 11:14Speaker 1: facilities and all that, or would you want to play
- 11:18Speaker 1: with the Dodgers? The Dodgers. These players are so coddled
- 11:21Speaker 1: with the Dodgers. They're the only team in all of
- 11:24Speaker 1: North American sports that use two planes, one for the
- 11:28Speaker 1: players so they can be separated from the flotsam and
- 11:30Speaker 1: jetsam on the other plane the coaches and the support
- 11:33Speaker 1: staff and all that. So they're so spoiled. They've done that.
- 11:36Speaker 1: They brought in Japanese toilets, so they have the cleanest
- 11:40Speaker 1: asses in baseball. The Dodgers have the cleanest tushies in
- 11:43Speaker 1: baseball because they've got the toilets that spread the water. Right,
- 11:46Speaker 1: They've got all that, and they're the bad guys. Would
- 11:49Speaker 1: you rather work for the Dodgers or the White Sox
- 11:52Speaker 1: or the Athletics who use I think the White Sox
- 11:54Speaker 1: not that why the Athletics, I believe they use porta
- 11:57Speaker 1: pottis right? Yeah, yeah, seriously, if you take a dump
- 12:04Speaker 1: for the Dodgers, you're in a beautiful bathroom with luxury tile,
- 12:10Speaker 1: marble tile, and a Japanese style toilet. If you play
- 12:14Speaker 1: for the Athletics and you take a deuce, you're sitting
- 12:16Speaker 1: in a porta potty at it's one hundred and fifty
- 12:18Speaker 1: degrees and it hasn't been clean in two weeks. Where
- 12:21Speaker 1: would you rather be? Meanwhile, secondly, let's address the Blue
- 12:27Speaker 1: Jays sports net analyst Caleb Joseph. Now, this guy went
- 12:32Speaker 1: viral during the regular season. He got into it with
- 12:34Speaker 1: Michael k. Well, you don't watch sportsnetty. I may or
- 12:39Speaker 1: may not have access to this. So I've watched it
- 12:41Speaker 1: and I've seen him, and he's got some strong opinions.
- 12:43Speaker 1: He's clearly a fanboy for the Blue Jays, works Blue JATV.
- 12:47Speaker 1: So he opened up his postgame commentary this this guy,
- 12:51Speaker 1: Caleb Joseph over the weekend. After Game seven, he said, quote,
- 12:56Speaker 1: this is gonna sound like sour grapes and I don't
- 12:59Speaker 1: really give a poop. I cleaned it up. The better
- 13:03Speaker 1: team did not win this World Series, said Caleb Joseph.
- 13:09Speaker 1: All right, question for the esteem panel. As Steven Manhattan
- 13:14Speaker 1: likes to say, so, the question, were the Vladimir Guerrero
- 13:18Speaker 1: Junior Blue Jays really the better team in the World Series?
- 13:22Speaker 1: Did the better team not win? All right? So this
- 13:25Speaker 1: is classic loseer loser talk from the top rope, from
- 13:34Speaker 1: the top rope, and from the north. The Dodgers later
- 13:37Speaker 1: today are having a parade. They're having a parade, and
- 13:42Speaker 1: you're stuck there at the podium trying to explain why
- 13:47Speaker 1: the Blue Jays are not having a parade. You're talking,
- 13:49Speaker 1: I guess about moral victories. The only way you could
- 13:51Speaker 1: make that take and live by that take and die
- 13:54Speaker 1: by that take is that if you love stats, if
- 13:57Speaker 1: you just go by the stats, Congratulations Toronto, you had
- 14:00Speaker 1: better stats. Way to go. You won the spreadsheet parade,
- 14:05Speaker 1: you had lower payroll, still paid a lot of money,
- 14:08Speaker 1: but you paid lower than the Dodgers. It's kind of
- 14:10Speaker 1: like saying, if the World Series were decided by expected
- 14:17Speaker 1: batting average, we would have won. Smiler alert. It's not
- 14:22Speaker 1: I excuse my French se la vill That's life, Okay,
- 14:27Speaker 1: that's life. The Jays won the nerd battle, they did
- 14:30Speaker 1: not win the war. It's like bragging that your your
- 14:33Speaker 1: Tinder profile got more swipes but the other guy got
- 14:37Speaker 1: the hot girl, but you didn't get the hot go,
- 14:39Speaker 1: but you had more swipes on your tinder. You can
- 14:42Speaker 1: throw all the numbers at me. I've seen all the numbers.
- 14:45Speaker 1: The Blue Jays had a better team batting average, they
- 14:48Speaker 1: had a better on base percentage, and yet they spit
- 14:52Speaker 1: the bet at the end of the game in Game
- 14:54Speaker 1: seven of the World Seriously, you know who didn't ya?
- 14:58Speaker 1: I'm Amoto, my guy, all right, big balls Yamamoto for sure,
- 15:03Speaker 1: he was the difference maker. Three wins and Era just
- 15:06Speaker 1: a hair over one. Came out of the bullpen on
- 15:08Speaker 1: fumes in Game seven after pitching Game six and slam
- 15:12Speaker 1: the door. Slam the door, and the Jays hit the
- 15:15Speaker 1: ball all over the place. They did. They had how
- 15:17Speaker 1: many chances to win the World Series? And the Dodgers
- 15:19Speaker 1: hit it when it mattered. That's the difference. Blue Jay
- 15:22Speaker 1: has got more hits. It's kind of like my old
- 15:24Speaker 1: diet back in the day when I was morbidly obese.
- 15:27Speaker 1: It was quantity over quality. The Blue Jays had a
- 15:30Speaker 1: quantity diet. They had a lot of food. The Dodgers
- 15:32Speaker 1: had quality food. Is what they had. They did right.
- 15:35Speaker 1: You can almost hear the Blue Jays crying into their poutine.
- 15:38Speaker 1: They had six guys hitting three hundred in the World Series. Yeah,
- 15:42Speaker 1: and you failed to get the hunk of metal. Congratulations
- 15:45Speaker 1: you did. Baseball is not about the pretty stats. It's
- 15:49Speaker 1: about timing. There's a famous quote that many have been
- 15:52Speaker 1: attributed to saying about baseball and stats and all that.
- 15:55Speaker 1: Statistics are kind of like bikinis. All right, we all
- 15:59Speaker 1: like bikinis, we all having Most people like bikinis. No
- 16:01Speaker 1: matter what team you're on, you like bikini. They show
- 16:04Speaker 1: you a lot, but they don't show you everything. No, No,
- 16:07Speaker 1: there's stuff that you don't see. I mean, you don't
- 16:10Speaker 1: know what's under that bikinis, some very important stuff. The
- 16:13Speaker 1: Dodgers hit two oh three in the World Series. Two
- 16:17Speaker 1: oh three. Otani had an e area of seven point
- 16:20Speaker 1: seven to eight in the World Series. Blake's bro I'm
- 16:22Speaker 1: risking my life, bro. Blake Snell had an area of
- 16:25Speaker 1: six point nine to two in the World Series. And
- 16:29Speaker 1: they still won because as slap hitting Miguel Rojas, he
- 16:33Speaker 1: stepped up hit a big home run, and then Will
- 16:35Speaker 1: Smith came up clutch in the eleventh inning. Toronto looked
- 16:40Speaker 1: like the kind of team that these teams played one
- 16:42Speaker 1: hundred and sixty two games. The Blue Jays would win
- 16:44Speaker 1: more games during the regular season, but in a seven
- 16:47Speaker 1: game series a short sample size, that was not the case.
- 16:51Speaker 1: Too bad, this was not a best of nine or
- 16:53Speaker 1: a best of eleven. The Blue Jays would be in
- 16:56Speaker 1: much better position. They decided years ago to make these
- 16:58Speaker 1: series the best of seven, and they could change it
- 17:02Speaker 1: and make it a best of nine. But the fact
- 17:04Speaker 1: is that the Dodgers were able to make more clutch
- 17:06Speaker 1: plays and they ended up winning the World's Here's the
- 17:09Speaker 1: Freddie Freeman home run the eighteenth inning game and then
- 17:11Speaker 1: the game game seven, and that was the difference. And
- 17:14Speaker 1: you'll win every single time. And this is the argument
- 17:17Speaker 1: against the stats r. Everyone gets all horny for stats,
- 17:20Speaker 1: but yet it's what you do when it matters, right
- 17:23Speaker 1: in that moment, and some guys that weren't supposed to
- 17:26Speaker 1: perform did perform for the Dodgers, and the Dodgers they
- 17:29Speaker 1: ruined baseball. Oh my fat ass, they were bade. Listen,
- 17:32Speaker 1: Toronto screwed this thing up. They should have won. They
- 17:34Speaker 1: were right there, they were two hours away in the night. Denny,
- 17:37Speaker 1: how do you allow Miguel Rohast hit home run. You
- 17:39Speaker 1: should be kicked out of Canada if you allow Miguel
- 17:41Speaker 1: Rohast hit home run to tie the game. And you
- 17:44Speaker 1: did it all right? Final fuck? I turned the page quick, right,
- 17:48Speaker 1: all right? So the World Series ended over the weekend.
- 17:50Speaker 1: The parade for the Dodgers is today. The confetti is
- 17:52Speaker 1: barely barely off the turf, and now the business of
- 17:58Speaker 1: baseball takes over, which will be feeding us in talk
- 18:01Speaker 1: radio for the next couple of months. There are one
- 18:04Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty seven free agents ready to roam
- 18:08Speaker 1: around North America and get paid money, money, money, big money. Question.
- 18:14Speaker 1: First glance question here it is what grade? What grade
- 18:20Speaker 1: are we giving this twenty twenty five free agent shopping season,
- 18:24Speaker 1: which begins later this week, starts on Thursday. Let the
- 18:28Speaker 1: shopping begin, so on the Mallor report card, the only
- 18:31Speaker 1: report card record, the Mallor report card. I am going
- 18:34Speaker 1: to give this a B minus, a B minus in
- 18:37Speaker 1: free agency. It's a solid class. I would not say
- 18:40Speaker 1: it's spectacular. Spectacular was when Otani was a free agent
- 18:44Speaker 1: or Aaron Judge or as John Hayman calls him, Arson Judge.
- 18:47Speaker 1: When those guys were free agents, that was like next level.
- 18:50Speaker 1: This is not at that level. It's not it's a
- 18:53Speaker 1: solid bee that when Otani and Judge were free agents.
- 18:57Speaker 1: That was for let mion. This is more like bread
- 19:01Speaker 1: and milk. Now, you like bread and you like milk,
- 19:03Speaker 1: but you don't get all excited for bread and milk.
- 19:05Speaker 1: You get excited for a nice steak unless you're an
- 19:07Speaker 1: evil vegetarian or even worse like our friend Nostradinas and
- 19:12Speaker 1: his wife. I think vegan. I think vegan. Anyway, listen,
- 19:15Speaker 1: Kyle Schwarber. Kyle Schwarber is the luxury bag. He is right.
- 19:21Speaker 1: You guys are gonna finished runner up to Atani in
- 19:23Speaker 1: the MVP race. And he's one of those plays like
- 19:25Speaker 1: you don't necessarily he's a fun player to have on
- 19:28Speaker 1: your team. You don't necessarily need him. He looks cool
- 19:30Speaker 1: on your roster and it's the classic home run and
- 19:36Speaker 1: with machine and that's fun. It's fun to have guys
- 19:40Speaker 1: like that. He has a lot of homewos. Bobachett, who
- 19:42Speaker 1: had a big home run, looked like that would be
- 19:43Speaker 1: the knockout punch early at three run homer for Toronto
- 19:46Speaker 1: over the weekend, but the Dodgers came back, Bobachett. Nice player,
- 19:50Speaker 1: good player, not elite, not an elite player, but he
- 19:56Speaker 1: can be yours if you want to. And you look
- 19:57Speaker 1: around and there's a lot of players like that, right uh.
- 20:01Speaker 1: You know, Kyle Tucker, I'm skeptical, cheating as I know,
- 20:07Speaker 1: he did some time in Chicago here recently with the Cubs,
- 20:09Speaker 1: and someone's gonna talk themselves into paying Kyle Tucker a
- 20:12Speaker 1: ton of money. And then you look around. There's Genio Suarez,
- 20:15Speaker 1: the late of the Mariners, Trent Grisham of the Yankees,
- 20:18Speaker 1: Luisa Rise of the Padres, Josh Naylor of Seattle. J
- 20:20Speaker 1: t Ria Mutou of the Phillies also are there. They're
- 20:24Speaker 1: all solid. You can fill some holes in your team
- 20:27Speaker 1: with guys like that. You're not going to get a
- 20:29Speaker 1: franchise changer. They're nice, B level players. All those guys
- 20:34Speaker 1: on the market, and I'd say they're glue guys. You know,
- 20:38Speaker 1: I love the term glue guys. Big fan of glue guys.
- 20:40Speaker 1: There's nobody spectacular and the pitching, forget about it. The
- 20:45Speaker 1: Phillies have a bunch of freeze with j t Ria Muto,
- 20:47Speaker 1: as we mentioned, also Kyle Schwarber and the ace of
- 20:50Speaker 1: the Philly staff for Rangel Suarez is a free agent
- 20:54Speaker 1: Franburg Valdez who's got cooties from his time in Houston.
- 20:57Speaker 1: He can be yours as well. So overall it is
- 20:59Speaker 1: a bus. There's some fun toys. But if your general
- 21:04Speaker 1: manager and you're looking to get that prime middle of
- 21:09Speaker 1: the wagon wheel player, eh ah, good luck. He's mostly
- 21:14Speaker 1: gonna be B level and C level players in free agency.
- 21:17Speaker 1: It is the Ben Mahler Show. If you disagree with

- 23:44Speaker 1: Vasse's blank sharing the Dodgers World Series celebration over the weekend.

- 24:00Speaker 1: face from ferg Dog. Who else we have? His soft
- 24:03Speaker 1: lips guessed by Donkey Sausage Lady Sideburns said his dragon

- 24:31Speaker 1: courtesy Fleusher said his gigantic blank he pimpled the tuckis
- 24:37Speaker 1: from Larry. Who else do we have? Page now? He admired.
- 24:40Speaker 1: According to Mike the Leprechaun, his Ben Maler Malar militia
- 24:43Speaker 1: ring he got from mister irrigation. All right, enough of that.
- 24:48Speaker 1: The correct answer, the correct answer to the Mallard Riddle
- 24:51Speaker 1: of the day. Key k Hernandez had great admiration for
- 24:54Speaker 1: our nemesis, David Ressey's nipples. A postgame there, big fan

- 25:16Speaker 4: singer Tom Cochran.
- 25:18Speaker 1: It's very random now, Canadian Mike, full disclosure, you are
- 25:21Speaker 1: part of the Fox Sports Radio Alumni Association. Have you
- 25:23Speaker 1: paid up your Fox Sports Radio dues? Canadian Mike, the
- 25:26Speaker 1: check is in the mail. The check is in I've
- 25:28Speaker 1: heard that from Looney too, and Looney has not paid
- 25:30Speaker 1: in a while, so it's bad job.
- 25:32Speaker 4: Tom Cochran's The Canadian Tom Cockran was tweeting about the
- 25:35Speaker 4: Blue Jays, congratulating on the on the inspiring and uniting ride,
- 25:39Speaker 4: uniting a country. Tom Cochran's famous song with laugh is
- 25:42Speaker 4: a haghway. So I was going to tweet back to

- 25:51Speaker 4: all night long, we want to take that all night

- 26:00Speaker 4: She had earlier. Ben just last segment.

- 26:04Speaker 1: good player, not elite, the.
- 26:05Speaker 4: Best shortstop in the game. He's the best hitter in
- 26:08Speaker 4: the other than Freddie Freeman's Vladimir Guerrero Junior.
- 26:11Speaker 1: You're wearing a powder blue Blue Jay jersey right now.
- 26:13Speaker 1: Your opinion is your little compromise son of Dante. You're little,
- 26:17Speaker 1: I know, yeah, I understand, I'm old. I know Dante.
- 26:19Speaker 1: I'm worried that to me, You're you're bearing the lead here,
- 26:21Speaker 1: Canadian Mike.
- 26:22Speaker 4: Let me give you a cowboy and Windsor kid bit here,
- 26:26Speaker 4: Hey cowboy, this one's for you. Yeah, cel Plee, Cabloavaje.
- 26:31Speaker 4: Vin Scully used to call him the wild Horse. Turned
- 26:35Speaker 4: thirty four years old this year.
- 26:37Speaker 1: Why was he.
- 26:38Speaker 4: Playing for the Dodgers in the World Series?
- 26:40Speaker 5: What happened with Flee?
- 26:41Speaker 1: Well he's exiled.
- 26:43Speaker 4: There was some man at thirty four years old, the
- 26:45Speaker 4: guy like.
- 26:45Speaker 1: He's been out of but he's been out of the
- 26:46Speaker 1: Major least for he's been out of baseball.
- 26:48Speaker 4: Should have been on that team. I mean, Donny Baseball
- 26:50Speaker 4: was his manager, Wasn't he maddening?
- 26:52Speaker 1: Yeah, it seems about right. You buried the lead though,
- 26:54Speaker 1: Canadian Mike.
- 26:55Speaker 4: The lead is broke.
- 26:56Speaker 1: All I say the lead is Canadian Mike, take a break.
- 26:59Speaker 1: The lead is the guy that got the Rojas home
- 27:02Speaker 1: run ball? Did the old switch Arrooo? It looked like
- 27:06Speaker 1: he threw the ball back onto the field, but upon
- 27:09Speaker 1: further review, it appears that he reached into his pocket
- 27:13Speaker 1: and threw the ball back on the field. And here's
- 27:16Speaker 1: the thing that is a father son bonding moment, as
- 27:19Speaker 1: there's a photo of both of the the father and
- 27:22Speaker 1: the son holding the home run balls. The dad cricket.
- 27:27Speaker 4: They looked like they were cricket fans.
- 27:28Speaker 1: Yeah, the dad got a mcguil. I think the dad
- 27:31Speaker 1: got McGill. Rojas. The kid got the will Smith home run.
- 27:33Speaker 1: But they held him up, proving that it was a fraud.
- 27:37Speaker 1: That the dad pretended to throw the Rojas home run
- 27:39Speaker 1: ball back but he didn't.
- 27:41Speaker 4: He's a sisters in the big American city's famous for
- 27:45Speaker 4: throwing balls back on the field.
- 27:47Speaker 1: Well no, but I'm saying no, no, no, yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 27:49Speaker 1: But Kennedy, Mike, this guy pretended to throw it back
- 27:51Speaker 1: and everyone going crazy. That's the coolest guy in the
- 27:53Speaker 1: wilf It was a there was a second ball. There
- 27:56Speaker 1: was a second ball, a hidden ball. Kenny. I love
- 28:02Speaker 1: you Canadian, Mike, You're my man. How many years ago
- 28:05Speaker 1: you work here? It was a long time ago, Right
- 28:07Speaker 1: when'd you leave here?
- 28:09Speaker 4: I've been gone for a few years. But Ben, here's
- 28:11Speaker 4: what I got to say about the journey that we
- 28:13Speaker 4: were on in the in the World Series.
- 28:15Speaker 3: There is the.
- 28:16Speaker 4: Image that will stick with me from that home run
- 28:18Speaker 4: by mister Rojas. Uh it had said the ball gone
- 28:22Speaker 4: over the wall. And then on television, at least on
- 28:25Speaker 4: the Roger Sports Meet broadcast here in Canada with Buck
- 28:27Speaker 4: Martinez and Dan Shulman. They immediately switched to this forty
- 28:31Speaker 4: five year old fan in the stands, and you see
- 28:33Speaker 4: in his eyes the tears, his eyes starting to swell up,
- 28:36Speaker 4: and he was about to gush tears like you, like
- 28:39Speaker 4: you would in a situation like that as a diehard fan.
- 28:42Speaker 4: You don't want to be that forty five year old
- 28:44Speaker 4: I'm glad I'm not that forty five year old man
- 28:46Speaker 4: with that image.
- 28:46Speaker 2: For the rest of my heart.
- 28:47Speaker 1: Well, say how you got? You're emotionally invested.
- 28:50Speaker 4: Most most people are not used to going through the
- 28:53Speaker 4: roller coaster ride of emotions that we went through in
- 28:55Speaker 4: game seven.
- 28:56Speaker 1: No, that's true. It's a unique situation. I gotta go.
- 28:59Speaker 4: Thank you, yah, take you for allowing as to participate.
- 29:01Speaker 4: We'll see you in twenty twenty.
- 29:03Speaker 1: All right, come come hang out with the great Canadian
- 29:06Speaker 1: Mike loved the guy used to work here. Steven Manhattan. Hello,
- 29:09Speaker 1: Steve O in Manhattan. Welcome.
- 29:13Speaker 5: Why don't you just go? Why don't you just go
- 29:15Speaker 5: to the parade? All right?
- 29:17Speaker 1: No, I have to I'm not going to I'm not
- 29:19Speaker 1: going to the parade. Why why would why would I
- 29:21Speaker 1: go to the parade. It's hot. There's gonna be a
- 29:23Speaker 1: lot of people that smell there that don't take showers.
- 29:25Speaker 1: Why would I go there?
- 29:27Speaker 5: It just stepped on my opening line, welcome to he everybody.
- 29:30Speaker 5: I'm just joking. I'm saying the guy got like emotional,
- 29:33Speaker 5: you know.
- 29:34Speaker 1: Well, so he was talking about a Blue Jay fan.
- 29:37Speaker 1: He was talking about it was it was a Dodger.
- 29:40Speaker 1: Now the guys from the guy just called in from Toronto.
- 29:42Speaker 1: He's talking about Bill from Korea Town being upset that
- 29:45Speaker 1: you're not going to the parade. Oh you know that
- 29:47Speaker 1: was hours ago? Okay, all how long he's been on hold?
- 29:51Speaker 2: All right?
- 29:52Speaker 1: I know this is the part you can play. You're
- 29:53Speaker 1: on holding my hand.
- 29:55Speaker 5: I'm getting crampsh from.
- 29:56Speaker 1: No, that's it. You don't even know you. The reason
- 29:58Speaker 1: I don't mind leaving you on hold is you you
- 30:00Speaker 1: have another phone. We know because you've called up and
- 30:02Speaker 1: you call other radio shows. So if you're just on
- 30:04Speaker 1: hold with us, you can call the other overnight shows
- 30:06Speaker 1: that you call, and then it's fine. There's no problem.
- 30:08Speaker 5: Right, I can't call them. They don't let me on,
- 30:12Speaker 5: you know.
- 30:13Speaker 1: But what does that say? What does that say about
- 30:14Speaker 1: our show that we put you on.
- 30:16Speaker 5: You guys, listen, listen. I'll say it a million times
- 30:20Speaker 5: that you Ben Mala how we call. And now the
- 30:25Speaker 5: little Leprechaun from w ABC, he lets me on too,
- 30:31Speaker 5: But I don't want to say his name there because
- 30:33Speaker 5: we don't know yet, because they you never know, iill
- 30:34Speaker 5: have enough time to get banned from that show. But
- 30:37Speaker 5: the thing is, I'm amazed that I'm allowed to come
- 30:41Speaker 5: after the show. But I just want to tell your
- 30:42Speaker 5: Athan one time, talking about multiple phones, I was every
- 30:47Speaker 5: call to the show. They must take the you know
- 30:51Speaker 5: the guy who takes the call the screena that next
- 30:54Speaker 5: morning they must have had him on one of those
- 30:55Speaker 5: medievil stretching racks.
- 30:57Speaker 1: I was every single call. Okay, so so that that
- 31:01Speaker 1: that is possible, that that could happen, and uh, it's well,
- 31:05Speaker 1: it's it's pretty embarrassing for the show that no one
- 31:08Speaker 1: else called. It's it's pretty awkward. It's it's.
- 31:11Speaker 5: Yeah, but you got to remember I've been calling to
- 31:14Speaker 5: since high school, so it was like the high school days.
- 31:17Speaker 5: It's like you have more energy, it's like a prank.
- 31:19Speaker 5: It's funny and everything. But the thing is, like what
- 31:23Speaker 5: I was talking about, Well, first of all people, should
- 31:25Speaker 5: the Dodger fan should know that this guy Isaiah kind
- 31:28Speaker 5: of whatever the hell his name is, he's going to
- 31:30Speaker 5: be opening a base running school. How could you guys
- 31:33Speaker 5: watch that game and look at that guy I used
- 31:36Speaker 5: to call the baby lead when I played baseball. I
- 31:38Speaker 5: used to take humongous leads off a second base. I
- 31:42Speaker 5: know he was on third base, and the I used
- 31:45Speaker 5: to freak the picture out and the imposing manager would
- 31:48Speaker 5: come out of the mound and tell the picture just
- 31:50Speaker 5: forget about that guy. He's gonna the third base. I
- 31:52Speaker 5: used to beat the third basement to the base. But
- 31:54Speaker 5: the bottom but the bottom line is then he he slides.
- 31:59Speaker 5: You don't want a tag played? Would you slide home plate?
- 32:03Speaker 5: You're coming full?
- 32:04Speaker 1: It was it was about it was about two inches
- 32:06Speaker 1: away from winning the world. Seriously, yeah, but he would
- 32:09Speaker 1: have won the world. No, I understand you would if.
- 32:11Speaker 5: You would have taken a good lead, a good secondary lead,
- 32:15Speaker 5: and he and he would have ran right to home
- 32:17Speaker 5: plate without sliding. You guys, be no praying today in
- 32:21Speaker 5: Los Angeles.
- 32:24Speaker 1: You know you're still you're still better about the Yankees
- 32:26Speaker 1: imploding in Game five last year. You haven't let that.
- 32:31Speaker 5: Come on, listen, Judge took his eye off the ball.
- 32:33Speaker 5: We'll go through the whole.
- 32:34Speaker 1: Anthony, Anthony Volpi misplayed the ball at short stop? How
- 32:38Speaker 1: about your how about your pitcher, Garrett Cole failing to
- 32:40Speaker 1: cover first base? It was beautiful. It's one of my
- 32:42Speaker 1: favorite innings of baseball. You go remember that. It's tattooed
- 32:45Speaker 1: in my head. How bad the Yankees played that inning.
- 32:47Speaker 5: I would put that ball on Anthony Rizzo because he
- 32:50Speaker 5: should have charged that ball I played. I played center field.
- 32:54Speaker 5: I would have been chasing Mookie Wilson or Rookie Betts.
- 32:57Speaker 1: Whatever you should be coaching, then why are you? You
- 32:59Speaker 1: should be coe one of these teams? When do they
- 33:01Speaker 1: hire you?
- 33:02Speaker 5: I did? I helped out a lot to you. I
- 33:04Speaker 5: helped a lot of people out there. My guys got
- 33:07Speaker 5: to come off the mound. I don't want to get
- 33:09Speaker 5: into whole. People don't want to hear that stuff. But listen,
- 33:12Speaker 5: I want to tell you something your show, Like last week,
- 33:16Speaker 5: you don't realize somebody was trying to call me when
- 33:18Speaker 5: I was on the air with you. That only happened
- 33:20Speaker 5: twice before with Warner Wolf and Joe Viningo.
- 33:23Speaker 1: When I was on Warner Wolf. I haven't heard that
- 33:26Speaker 1: name in a lot. I love Warner Wolf. He's retired
- 33:28Speaker 1: in Florida.
- 33:28Speaker 5: Wait used to go nuts when I called this show.
- 33:31Speaker 1: Let's go to the video tape. Let's go to the
- 33:33Speaker 1: video tape, Warner Wolf.
- 33:35Speaker 5: There you go, right, one hundred of giants picked him
- 33:37Speaker 5: up with one hand. He looked like b Lorell.
- 33:40Speaker 1: Yeah, I gotta go that thing. I gotta get Cardiac
- 33:43Speaker 1: Stanley on. He's the guy that famously had the heart
- 33:45Speaker 1: attack on the show a couple of years back. Hello
- 33:47Speaker 1: Cardiac Stanley, and since Sinnaty, Hello Stanley. Hello, how's your heart? Stanley?
- 33:54Speaker 6: Hey?
- 33:56Speaker 4: Really good?
- 33:57Speaker 1: Good?
