  Speaker 3: Santana got four games for swiping out a fan and
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: then in There's Dodgers' Battle. We got a lot of heat,
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: a lot of positive and negative heat from fans on
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: all the socials throughout the weekend. There was one thing
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: that we forgot to mention, and I know AJ this
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: is probably where you'll want to start. Robert Sparez did
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: enter the game for a reason. Kratz was like, oh,
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: they brought him in as a hired gun. No, he
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: had to clean up the mess from the previous Really,
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: I forget what his name was. And he threw out
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: a tani at on a three to zero count. We
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: didn't get to that part on Friday.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: The only problem I had is, don't hit him three oh?
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Hit him the first pitch? While are we waiting? Why
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: we wait until three oh? Hit him on the first pitch, Like,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: if you're coming in to do that, hit him, get
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: it over with. But I listen. I was in San
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: Diego this Saturday, so I got to talk to Shilton
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: and I asked him, and I want y'all thoughts who wins?
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: And I asked, Mike Shilt this who wins between a
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: fight and Dave Roberts. Mike Shilt and Dave Roberts, who
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: wins the fight?
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: Well, I'm gonna let Scott, I'm gonna let Braun answer
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: that first.
• 1:56
  Speaker 5: No one wants to hear me on here.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: They want to hear you guys.
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: Listen, you put me in a tough spot. I love
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: both of these guys. But I'm gonna go up my mentor,
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: Dave Roberts. I think he's still a little bit you know,
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: Sprague still, I think the footworks may be a little
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: bit too much.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: But uh and I and listen, you know what, he showed.
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: Me something too, because I like how he came out
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: of there with a little heat, a little hot, like.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: You point out meeting, let's get it, let's go.
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: So you know, I think David still got a little
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: bit more juice left in the tank than Mike shild
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: But I do. I love the energy from both teams,
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: from from both both clubhouses, both leaders. We need more
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: of that.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: We need, we need to get again. AJ, you said it.
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: I'm tired of seeing all this friendly baseball. I want
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: to see teams that don't like each other, teams that
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: can't stand to share the field, and and and now
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: the managers have some animosity. So I think it's great
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: for the game.
• 2:50
  Speaker 5: AJ. Who you got, doc or Shilp.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: I think it's a ten round no decision draw. How's that?
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: Wow?
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: It's ten round decisions draw across the board. All right.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: I know we got Dave Roberts in his boxing, but listen, shilty.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: Shilty is a little he's a little sprier than I
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: think people give him credit for. Uh Now, listen, when
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: I asked sheilty, of course he's like, we're not going
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: to talk about this, you know, wink wink. Uh. But
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I think it would be good. And
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: I say, you know what for charity, Let's get it on.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: What are they say in UFC.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: Oh, let's do a there?
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: There are a lot of it if you look around,
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: like social media, they're a lot of like social you know, celebrity,
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: clear the air. You want to get your beef out there,
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: Let's hop it a ring. Let the money go to
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: some charity you know what. You might end up seeing
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: it one off season.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: Who knows it's true.
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think it'll be anytime soon. But maybe
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: when they retire they'll be like, hey, let's put some
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: money a good way. All right, Let's charge the damn
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: mounds charge it.
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: About all right?
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: So Hunter Brown against Neto, I think I know who
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: I'm picking in that one. But what did you think
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: of the back and forth that those two had cam?
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: You can start here. So Brown basically said that Neddo's
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: crowding the plate and that's why he's getting hit. Neto
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: was like, yo, you did this to be last year,
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: and Brown's like, I know you're.
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: Crying the plate, bro, Well listen, you know what. I
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: went back and watched every abat. I went back and
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: watched it last year, and one thing I will say,
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: even though I am pro hitter and Hunter Brown's defense,
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: zach Netto, his toes are.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: On the white line. I mean he is hanging over
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: the over the dish.
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: So at some point, as a pitcher, you know they
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: I've always been taught to establish the inner half.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: And Hunter Brown, we know his command is pretty good.
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: We've seen it.
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: He can throw the ball at where he wants it once,
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: but every once in a while, you got to get
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: those guys off the dish. So I think it's one
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: of those things where, hey, if it feels like it's
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: starting to become personal, that's when zach Netto, Hey, you
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: go to one of your teammates, so you hope you
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: have the type of teammates behind you to say, okay,
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: al Tuvey, Peyna, whoever the guy is now in that lineup,
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: you got to wear this one too. So maybe now
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: you go talk to your picture and you're tell him, Hey, dude,
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: I know he's on a dish, but if they're.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: Gonna be hitting me, you can't be thrown at them.
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: So there's a way to protect your guys if you're
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: the angels. But I'm not mad at Hunter Brown for
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: trying to control the inner half. Zach Netto is all
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: over the dish, and I love Zachnodo. I'm a huge
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: Zachnddo fan. You know this, Bron, But listen, you gott
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: to establish then in a half. If you're a picture
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: and a Hunter Brown, listen, I'm taking him to any
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: any of that scrap.
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: You heard it may he said, Bron, he did.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: I thought Brown.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: He's Bron the rest of the show. For me, I
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: love it.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: You can't give yourself a nickname. It's rule number one.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: You can't give yourself a nickname name. You can't talk
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: about yourself. You're not a third person kind of guy. Scott.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: Here's the thing, Like, I have no problem with Hunter Brown.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: He don't like him hanging over the plate. He did
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: what he had to do right here. Why And you
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: know what's funny, Netto's pissed. You almost swung at that pitch.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: That shows you how close to the plate he is.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: You can't get mad if you almost swing at the ball,
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: Like throw your bat down and get yell at Hunter
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: Brown because you almost swung at one, Like that's your
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: own fall. You're too close to the play Listen if
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: someone that was on top of the plate when I hit,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: and I got hit a lot, and I stuck my
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: arm into a few two and I also did that
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: right there. You know what you can't do if you're
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: on top of the plate and you don't walk like me,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: and you got to take it and hit as obp.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: You take it, you go to first and you be quiet.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: That's it. Like he almost swung at that ball. He
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: almost swung. He was like full, I'm gonna hit this ball.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: Oh no, right, I mean that ball was like almost
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: on the plate.
• 6:31
  Speaker 5: Postgame quotes were great.
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: So I'll read netto for him to go up and
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: in like that again it's just enough is enough? And
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: then from Hunter Brown, Yeah, I mean honestly, he almost
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: swung which what you just said, AJ, So I don't
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: know what he's talking about. Guy stands right on top
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: of the plate, doesn't like when he gets hit. That's
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: his problem.
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: And one thing I liked about it is and I'm
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: sure z that Nedo. Listen, he's a fire guy, but
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: sometimes you look into a guy's.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: Eyes and you can just see something different.
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: Listen, Hunter Brown has some crazy in them and I
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: and even after game, even after the game quote right there,
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: he's got a that's on him. You know, deal with
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: it like that's a dude who definitely wants all the smoke.
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: And you can tell he's not much of a talker.
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: But if push came to shove, I don't know if
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: I want to be in a room.
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: One Hunter Brown. He's got some crazy behind those eyes.
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: I agree that would not have been a fair fight
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: if those two locked. But nothing happened. No one was
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: that Jack did. Everything is okay, but things are getting
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: a little more hitted as it gets hot.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's good for the game to have a little
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: bit of hate for the other team. It's okay, they're
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: in the same division. It's okay. Here, I was talking
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: to somebody this weekend. They had a great idea. It'll
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: never happened, but they had a great idea. They make
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: it like hockey. The hitter gets hit by a pitch.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: They say, okay, I'm gon charge amount and take your
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: home at all off and put it down. The four
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: umpires go around them and they fight until somebody hits
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: the ground. You don't think Gratis will go up with that.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: Take your homet off. Gol Umpires are like around the ring.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: As soon as somebody goes down, we stop it and
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: we start over. I think it's a good idea. Be interesting.
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: People like this last time, so we're gonna do it again.
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: Read one of the fantastic Unique creative recipes dishes on
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: Hello Fresh, creamy Alfredo, truffle cab it, tappy pasta.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: Have a toppy maybe, but I'll just go with the
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: Indian inspired chicken paired with turmeric rice. That sounds awesome.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: Everything about this is delicious. Fresh comes in a little bag,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: and I like to cook, so I like to chop
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: up the ingredients. I like to throw stuff in the pan,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: mix it up. It makes me feel like I'm doing
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: something Scott and they always come out amazing.

  Speaker 3: So hockey is trying to get rid of that, and
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: AJ's anonymous source is trying to take that from hockey
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: and place it in baseball.
• 9:27
  Speaker 5: Hey, for me, it would be super entertaining.
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: But that's would that be?
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: Would that be a penalty box situation or still automatic
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: injection because you can't put them in the penalty box
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: in the baseball game because somebody's gotta somebody's gotta somebody's
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: got to feel that roster spot.
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: Or you put them in a penlty box in the
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: reinserted you can.
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: Put one player.
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: You have to put like one outfielder in the penalty
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: box for an inning.
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: That that'd be. That would be interesting that for sure.
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: I'll tell you the ratings would definitely go up to
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: see some of these scraps. Think about think about that?
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: Was it Bryce heart Strickland a few years back?
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: Just go ahead instead of everybody getting in the way.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: Just let those guys.
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: Four umpires just just circle around those guys and let
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: them just do their thing. That would have been insane.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: Now we're talking. See now we're talking like, can you
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: imagine if that happened and the umpire surrounded everybody and
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: said nobody gets in until one of them hits the ground.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: I think about how much you've views that would have
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: gotten on foul territory. It would have been insane. And
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: when do the Dodgers play the Padres again? When do
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: they play again?
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: Not for a while, I think not until.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: August August something, Yeah, twenty third. I guess who'll be there.
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: And I don't listen.
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: I don't know about where you guys are, but right
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: hand to Carolinas, it is getting hot. And we all
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: know as the heat goes up, the temperature, the temperature
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: on the field.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: Goes up as well. Right, guys get a.
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: Little bit more easy to upset guys. You know, tempers
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: are a little shorter. That heat is real, right, that
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: old heat factor is real. Guy, are not playing around
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: right now. Guys are pissed off and they are ready
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: to fight. And I love it. I think it's great
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: for the game.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Camp thinks about this August fifteenth. August fifteenth, Okay, don't
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: bring this up Camp, by the way, don't bring us
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: up to Scott because his favorite player, you know, yeah,
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: right on the field. But yeah, it's getting warm out there. Ellie,
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: Ellie had a little problem with the heat. You would
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: think you'd be okay, but she went barth he went,
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: he went puke.
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: Well, get their own segment coming up, but hold up,
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: hold up finishing up on the AL West. So I'm
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: going to do one thing on the Astros and one
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: thing on the Angels. The Astros, first of all, this
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: month have been on fire, and they're starting to run
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: away with things, to be honest. I mean they're fourteen
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: and six in June, plus thirty two run differential, AJ's
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: favorite stat.
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: They have a.
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: Five game lead in the division, and to top it
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: all off, they have the weakest remaining schedule in all
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: of baseball for the rest of the year by current opponents.
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: Winning forercent inch and the AL West is over.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: Congratulations can only do so much. Cal Rawley can only.
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: Get that back, get him some ice, killing him.
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: And he's a castle. Do you think he's going to
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: do that in the second half. I mean, cal has
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: been incredible, But do you think he's gonna put together
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: another I mean, first of all, we're still a few
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: weeks away from the All Star break. I mean, he
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: might be close to forty home runs by the All
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: Star break. Do you think he's gonna hit another? I
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: it's another forty in the second half. He's the best player,
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: he has the best season half all.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: By by far. You know everybody, Yeah, everybody slows down
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: in the second half. I know everyone likes to throw
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: it on catchers, but every you know how many times
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: we said, oh, he's on pace for seventy five homers
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: and he ends up with like fifty. Right, everybody slows
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: down in the second half. I don't care who you are.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: The heat, the humidity, the travel, especially in Seattle because
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: they travel like ten thousand more miles than any other team.
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: And where's it down after a while?
• 12:58
  Speaker 5: Yeah? Okay.
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: And then on the Angels side, Ron Washington is going
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: to miss some time, so he's sidelined indefinitely as he's
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: dealing with an undisclosed health concern.
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: He's seventy three years old.
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: He's gonna be around the team he's gonna mostly watch
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: games from the GM suite, from the front office suite,
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: and the bench coach. Ray Montgomery is taking over for now,
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: so he started taking over this weekend. And the guys
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: know him well. He's managed the Angels before. He took
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: over when Phil Nevin was suspended following a brawl with
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: the Mariners in twenty twenty two. He also managed the
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: team for a few days in spring training and Wash
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: was dealing with a health issue, and you know he's
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: been around the team a lot, but get well soon
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: to Wash. We don't know many details, although Cam it
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: does sound like they might have even used indefinitely wrong
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: to me, and definitely usually means like quite a bit
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: of time, and it sounds like it could be I
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: don't know, a couple of weeks and then Washes back
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: in the mix.
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, cour, I mean that's according to Perry Manas and
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: you know, talking about the return to Wash and uh,
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: you know, I think the good thing about it is
• 14:03
  Speaker 4: Washing It's still there, right, So I think that bows
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: well as far as you know his health, I think
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: him being in the building watching his boys, I think
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: that still means a lot. So again, even you talk
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: about the weather right now. He who knows, if it's
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: just a weather thing. He can't be out in that weather.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: Who knows. But from the looks of it, he looked
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: good in the box.
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: And I think that was, you know, all signs pointing
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: in the right direction.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: Agreed. Listen, Washington managed from the from the dugout, from this,
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: from his home whatever. I mean, they have cull phones out.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: But I got a question for y'all two because remember
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: Mike Shult was suspended for Friday night. Now I asked him,
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: I said, what did you do? Did you cause I
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: invited him to dinner with me, but he said he
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: had he had to work even though he was suspended.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: But my question is is did y'all know that he
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: was locked in his office okay for the game and
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: there's MLB people that sit in there with him and
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: make sure he doesn't pick up the phone to like
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: call down to the to the dugout or call down
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: like they're like, they like, lock him. He can't leave
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: his office, right, He like, what if you got to
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: p They're like, oh, they follow you. He's like, He's like,
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: you just had to sit there like this and just
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: watch the game on the TV like MLB people were
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: watching him everywhere.
• 15:08
  Speaker 5: I'm like, damn, that's crazy, That's what I'm saying.
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: Do you remember, Yeah, one time you were like, oh,
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: well they could still manage from the tunnel. I'm like,
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: ninety more. MLB's got the security guard sitting there.
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I was.
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: I was thinking, I think I was on that show
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: last time AJ mentioned that, and I was thinking, like, AJ,
• 15:25
  Speaker 4: you know, usually the guy.
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: I mean, this wasn't that long ago.
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: I just retired with three four years ago, where a
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: guy gets thrown out and he's still be sitting in
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: the clubhouse kind of clipping near the door and kind.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: Of hey, what's going on, kind of communicating.
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: So the game is definitely progressing to where when they
• 15:41
  Speaker 4: say you're ejected, you are truly ejected, and when you're suspended,
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: you are truly suspended.
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: So was this during the ejection AJ? Or was this
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: suspension game?
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: This suspension game you had just sitting in his office
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: in San Diego?
• 15:54
  Speaker 4: So he was still allowed to come to the ballpark though, See,
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: I thought, you know, and when the game started, you know,
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: I for players, a usually when you could come do
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: your workout, but once the game started, you had to
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: leave the stadium. So even that's new where they can
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: like stay at the stadium now apparently.
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but the problem is he stays at the stadium.
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: If he stays at the stadium, they can watch him.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: If he leaves, he could be sitting at home, you know,
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: send a text messages to the right like I mean,
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: he could be. They can give him a direct line
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: to the bullpen phone.
• 16:22
  Speaker 6: He'd be like.
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: With you, he could he could could.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: Man, we had a great dinner on Friday night, let
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: me do it.
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: He could have been sending the messages from from from
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: dinner with you.
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: I could have been managing the padres from from the
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: dinner place exactly.
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: But instead, what do I want? It's basically it's.
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: House arrest, it's office arrest, and they watch. Yeah, so
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: that's I guess the newer thing A one good one
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: bad from the al East. Let's start with Max Scherzer.
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: He's going to return on Wednesday. John Schneider's manager, was
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: just on with us on Friday, said, that's a huge,
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: huge addition for us. It's Max Scherzer all that any
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: day of the week. This is sure's our second start
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: of the year. He started on March twenty ninth, and
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: was removed from the game after a couple innings.
• 17:08
  Speaker 5: He's hoping that his back will hold up.
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: It's hard for him to tell until he actually starts
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: in a game, So we'll see what happens there. Let
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: me throw the other one in there too, and then
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: we can get a comment from one of you guys.
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: Hunter Dobbins is on the fifteen day il, a right
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: elbow strain for the Red Sox rookie starter who was
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: really impressive against the Yankees about a week and a
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: half ago.
• 17:28
  Speaker 5: So AJ thoughts on these two.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: We welcome back Max. Now we can get them on
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: our show again because we'll be back pitching, hopefully pitch
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: as well. We can get him to come on and
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: discuss things because he's one of our favorite guests. And then,
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: second of all, it sucks for Dobbins because he was
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: off to a really good start and the fact that
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: Dick Fits is coming to replace him is kind of awesome.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm a child, I admit it. I'm a
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: twelve year old, ten year old kid.
• 17:51
  Speaker 5: The reliever kids, that's his name.
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: That's his name.
• 17:56
  Speaker 5: He's a reliever.
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah that's good.
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Now this looks especially for Max, you know, especially
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: the blue Jays right now the Al East. You look
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: at the Rays, it's still as good as the Yankee started.
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: And that's why we talk about how important it is
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: the start off high.
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: You know, you get that type of guy, that type
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: of presence back on the mound and it infuses your
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: team another type of way.
• 18:17
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: We know, even at his age, he's the ultimate competitor
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: and you need that.
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: So hopefully Max can get back on track and get
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: back in that Blue Jay's rotation.
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: And by the way, when I said back, I meant
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: thumb is what he has to see how it looks. Yeah,
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: it feels when he gets back on the mound, he's like.
• 18:34
  Speaker 5: I just have to test it out on the fly.
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: Hey, one more injury bug that will mix into the
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: show here. David O'Brien with the tweet a couple of
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: days ago. One of the last things Braves wanted to
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: hear Chris sail out indefinitely a fractured rib cage. He
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: was injured making that great play in the ninth inning
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: in his last start. In his past ten starts, he's
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: got a let's see A one two three, ERA two
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: and a half on the season. I mean, he looks
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: just as good guys as he did last year. It's
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: a huge bumber Cam and Aj already cooked them, so
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: you can start here because he already said the Braves
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: are cooked.
• 19:09
  Speaker 5: They're way back.
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: They're getting brutal production from guys like Harris and all these.
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's one of those things where this thinks if
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: you're a Braves fan, because you know, Chris Sale was
• 19:21
  Speaker 4: the one, you know, bright spot on this team when
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: he when his start day came up. As a Braves fan,
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: you're excited. You're like, Okay, now we have something to
• 19:28
  Speaker 4: cheer for, something to root for. You know what he's
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: gonna go out and give you when you talk about
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: the lack of production in so many other spots.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: So yeah, this was a bummer to hear.
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: And like you said at ninth inning, as he just
• 19:39
  Speaker 4: deal another great start, another great outing by the raining
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: cy young winner.
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: Man, this is a bummer. Man. You hate to see
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: him go down and I hate this for Braves Country.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: He said he'll be okay. I talked to him. He
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: said he'll be okay. Don't worry a breast Country. Two
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: small rib fractures too small rib fractures, so I don't
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: know what that entails, but he you know, I love
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: that the Mets fans were like celebrating that he got hurt.
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: There's Mets fans. Why'd you treat this like your world series?
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: It was just a random dude, Like the guy's a competitor,
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: so doo hits up all he wanted to get him out, Like,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: I don't understand why how someone could be like, oh
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: what are you doing? Like, dude, he got an out.
• 20:16
  Speaker 5: Yeah, he's playing the game.
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: Braves are seven back of a wild card spot with
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: a ton of teams in front of them. FT fan,
• 20:27

  Speaker 3: with the code foul.
• 21:27
  Speaker 7: Snee right, there's twenty five thousand people there and I
• 21:38
  Speaker 7: vaguely hear a warning issued as the head coach, and
• 21:44
  Speaker 7: I was assistant for twenty four years, and as an
• 21:46
  Speaker 7: assistant you're almost treated like a second grade, second level citizen,
• 21:52
  Speaker 7: and you can't say a word. Now as a head coach,
• 21:54
  Speaker 7: I think it is your right to get an explanation
• 21:57
  Speaker 7: of why we got warned. And I'm forty eight years old.
• 22:02
  Speaker 7: I shouldn't get showed by another grown man. Do when
• 22:05
  Speaker 7: I come out to ask what the warning is? A
• 22:08
  Speaker 7: grown man showed me. So at that point I can
• 22:11
  Speaker 7: now hear him say it was a warning issued for
• 22:14
  Speaker 7: arguing balls and strikes, and at that point I said,
• 22:18
  Speaker 7: because you missed three ejected. If that warrants an ejection,
• 22:25
  Speaker 7: I'm the first one to stand here like a man
• 22:28
  Speaker 7: and apologize two words that the Fine Art program or
• 22:32
  Speaker 7: own it. You have to own everything that you do,
• 22:35
  Speaker 7: without blame, without defending yourself, without excuses. If you guys
• 22:41
  Speaker 7: watched the video, there was a guy that came in
• 22:46
  Speaker 7: extremely aggressively tripped over the camp post his foot embarrassed
• 22:53
  Speaker 7: in front of twenty five thousand, immediately goes two games
• 22:57
  Speaker 7: suspension and said bumping the umpire.
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: All right, So that's Kevin Schnall, Coastal Carolina head coach
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: who wanted to give it the full couple of minutes
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: there and congratulate the LSU Tigers who have now won
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: two championships in the past three years.
• 23:14
  Speaker 5: That is super impressive.
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: But damn aj first inning they booted, and then we
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: have the biggest flop of all time.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: First of all, let's start with this. Do we know
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: the umpire? The Angel Campos was a big league umpire,
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: right He was let go from Major League Baseball for
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: overreacting thing. Do we know what his middle name is,
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: Angel Hernandez. Sorry, but those are the facts, not making
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: fun of anything. But his middle name is. It's Angel
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: Hernandez Campos. Okay, And so he he overreacted here. This
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: is amazing. Listen, he's complaining. I get it. You know
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: you're not allowed to argue balls and strikes, but when
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: a guy challenges you, you got to come out and
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: stand up for your team now to get him run.
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: But the best part is the umpire tripping over his
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: own two feet and then saying, oh, that's your fault,
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: like right there, right there, he trips and he's like,
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: you bumped me. No, he didn't touch you. You tripped
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: over the other guy, like the two games. Two games. No,
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: come on, it's like the dumbest thing I've ever seen
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: in my life, Like, you tripped. And I love his
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: quote when he goes, I can't get you on another
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: man's athleticism, like he's.
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: Right, yeah, I think you know. This is happening way
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: too often in college baseball. Seems like it seems like
• 24:23
  Speaker 4: they are way too the highlights of umpires overreacting because
• 24:27
  Speaker 4: a guy celebrates a walk off homer or a guy
• 24:30
  Speaker 4: celebrates a big hit or a picture celebrates a big strikeout.
• 24:34
  Speaker 4: It's just all too many times now that umpires are
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: inserting themselves in the game when they shouldn't now. And
• 24:39
  Speaker 4: the other thing I thought was also funny when he
• 24:41
  Speaker 4: said that he didn't he asked what the warning was
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: and he got shoot away. But then he actually heard
• 24:46
  Speaker 4: that the warning was arguing balls and strikes, so you
• 24:49
  Speaker 4: got the explanation.
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: So then you know. So for me, he was a
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: little all over the place.
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: But I listen, I love the energy, but I don't
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: like to see these umpires continue to insert themselves into
• 24:59
  Speaker 4: the game.
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: Let the boys play, Let the game play out like this.
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: These moments are too big for us to be having
• 25:05
  Speaker 4: these conversations. After the fact that ELISU won another national title.
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: We should be talking about how great the Tigers is,
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: Jay Johnson, his staff, but instead here we are talking
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: about another umpire, angel Hernandez Campos, who continues to insert
• 25:18
  Speaker 4: himself in games, the reason why he was recommended from
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: Major League Baseball, Like he still hasn't learned his lesson,
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: you know, so.
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: By the way, Also, congratulat, I mean, let's give LUs
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: your congratulations. The best team money could buy this year again.
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: But I mean, listen, they want it. They have great pitching.
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: I mean the start on Saturday Night when the guy
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: was Anderson, when one hundred and.
• 25:43
  Speaker 5: Thirty Kate Anderson.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: By the way, Kate Erson, congratulations, You're never gonna throw
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: that many pitches again in your life because he just
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: proved you could throw one hundred and thirty. But when
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: he gets to the minor leagues, they're gonna be like, oh,
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: you have to start at twenty pitches and work your
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: way all the way up.
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: To eighty and then we'll get you out of the game.
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: Like what do we doing?
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: This guy just dominated for one hundred and thirty and
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: his last pitch was as hard as his first pitch.
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: I mean, let the kid pitch, please, Like, when we
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: get to the minor leagues, let this kid pitch. He
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: could do it. Paul Skins did it, and then the
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: pirates were like, we got a baby you now he's dominating.
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: Let the kids pitch. They prove they could do it.
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: Let him go, sorry, stick stick him in a rooie league.
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: Aj They'll stick him in the rookie league and let
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: him We just want to protect you and let the
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: kid go out and do what he does. Man, don't
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: hold him back exactly exactly.
• 26:31
  Speaker 5: Let the kids pay, let the kids pitch.
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: Let the kids go. And he's a competitor.
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: I love because guess what a lot of that too
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: we saw, like you say, Jay, that was on him
• 26:40
  Speaker 4: like no, I want the damn ball, Like give me
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: the ball, Like we need more of that, not like
• 26:46
  Speaker 4: well the you know, the analytics department said, the seventy
• 26:49
  Speaker 4: five pitches is my limbit even though I'm dealing right
• 26:51
  Speaker 4: now in the game is on the line.
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: I love that competitive fire. We need more of that.
• 26:57
  Speaker 5: And I showed you how deep the rabbit hole go.
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: All right, let's do a little data dish powered by
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: Inside Edge. We're about ninety seconds away, by the way,
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: from welcoming back the National TV crowd, and then we'll
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: welcome in Jacob Mezarowski.
• 27:16
  Speaker 5: So let's have a quick look.
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: At what we've got posted this morning on FT Twitter.
• 27:20
  Speaker 5: There it is.
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: It's the little Dylan c saction opponents two to four
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: against Cease with two strikes in his last three starts.
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: Great sign there, Aj, because it was off to a
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: slower start. You look at the padres and Diamondbacks. They
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: dealt with a lot of injuries to they're pitching plus
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: Cease and Gallon not looking like they usually do. So
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: for the padre side, no Musgrove, no darbish, no Michael King.
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: Right now they need number one Ceas.
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: So I watched these pitch on Saturday and he did
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: something I loved so much. He started throwing heaters and
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: he was blowing it by the Royals. It was unbelievable.
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: He'd go first pitch, breaking ball, steel striking in it
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: was like ninety seven, ninety eight, ninety nine, ninety seven,
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: and he was getting weak ontack punching tickets. The problem
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: with Dylan Seas is he always has a high pitchcount
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: because he throws so many gang sliders, gets so many
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: strikeouts and foul balls. He runs his pitchcount off. He
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: got into the seventh inning because he was like hereter
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: hereter heater, heater, and the Royals were like, wait, this
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: isn't our game plan. What do we do? And it
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: worked for him. So I love seeing this. It's a
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: great time for Dylan Sees for the rest of the year.
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, great point, AJ And the one thing that I
• 28:23
  Speaker 4: think he does so well and he's always done well.
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: Has been his superpowers, pitching at the top of his
• 28:27
  Speaker 4: own with that heater. I faced him. He was not
• 28:29
  Speaker 4: a fun at that even when you knew this basketball
• 28:31
  Speaker 4: was coming, he had that extra life, the extra ride
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: that was tough to get on top of us.
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: So I, like AJ said, stick to your bread and butter.
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: Get some quickouts.
• 28:39
  Speaker 4: You'll get your muchouse. You'll go deep in the games
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: with those quick outs.
• 28:47
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: We had our best friend, Jazz Chisholm Junior, losing his
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: cleats this weekend when he was hopping home. He said
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: it's because he was so sweaty, his socks were wet
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: and everything slipped straight out. Said he had never had
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: that happen, not at least flipping off. I don't remember
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: ever losing a shoe like that, But I also didn't
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: play a pro sport. So did you guys ever lose
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: your shoes heading home or just on the base paths
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: at all?
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: I actually had this happened. First, when you hit and
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: you press off with your back foot push off to go,
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: I think my cleat has popped up, and I've never
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: seen like mid run before. But then the catcher gots.
• 29:30
  Speaker 4: Right there yeah, he got spun around real good. Oh elbow,
• 29:36
  Speaker 4: little elbow to the head. Ye don't think it ever
• 29:38
  Speaker 4: happened to me. I was one of those guys that
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: I laced my my cleats up like super tight because
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: I knew I was at some point I was going
• 29:45
  Speaker 4: to be running.
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: That hard on the baseball field.
• 29:48
  Speaker 4: But uh, yeah, I listen, it is hot right now
• 29:51
  Speaker 4: around the globe. So who knows, like you said, maybe
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: maybe he has sweaty feet.
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: Most importantly, you know what that means.
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: We'll get a sponsor to help cure that for Jazzy Fresh. Actually,
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: i'll save this other part. There's another part of the
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: Yankee game that I do want to complain about.
• 30:13
  Speaker 5: From yesterday.
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: Someone was sat after finally getting some knocks, So we'll
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: get to that later. Well, if you're a normal human,
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: you can't speak English to your pup. But what you
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: can do to understand what they love, which is Spontan
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: tango on kibble, is to see how they react when
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: you put the unkibble in the bowl. And my pup,
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: Penalpe loves it, so does Bella.
• 30:40
  Speaker 6: Well, Bella speaks Spanish, so she says, moybien, I love
• 30:44
  Speaker 6: this stuff.
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: She says, Wow, Dad, thanks for creating a custom plan
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: based on my age, weight, breed an activity level.
• 30:54
  Speaker 5: You nailed it.
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: And also it's made with one hundred percent whole fresh
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: ingredients like real USDA meats, fruits and veggies. But it's
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: forty percent less expensive than frozen food. So upgrade your
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: pets bowl with spotan Tango unkibble and for a limited time,
• 31:08
  Speaker 3: go to spotantango dot com slash foul and use code
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: foul for fifty percent off your first order. That's spotantango
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: dot com slash foul, code foul to get fifty.
• 31:19
  Speaker 5: Percent off your first order. It's happening show.
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: Heyo Tani's second start of the season, in a thirteen
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: to seven win over the Nationals on Sunday, went another
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: inning just like he did last time around, actually less pitches,
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: usually trying to build up the pitch count, but they
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: didn't want him to go two innings, so he went
• 31:45
  Speaker 3: twenty eight pitches in game one, and in start two
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: now of the season, he went eighteen pitches and picked up.
• 31:51
  Speaker 5: His first couple strikeouts of the year.
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: One shutout frame in the first inning for the Dodgers,
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: got around a Mookie Bets error and Cam the starting pitcher,
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: ended up with a triple of homer and five RBIs
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: in the win.
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, showey, He's gonna be just fine.
• 32:06
  Speaker 4: My only concern is that, you know, him hitting leadoff,
• 32:10
  Speaker 4: if you have those long innings, he did look the
• 32:14
  Speaker 4: little He did look a little gas to me in
• 32:16
  Speaker 4: those first at bats and both outings. So we all
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: know he's a he's AI. We all know he's not human,
• 32:22
  Speaker 4: So he'll be just fine. I don't worry about it
• 32:24
  Speaker 4: at all. And again, like most baseball players, like AJ said,
• 32:28
  Speaker 4: you you all, you we all hit a little bit
• 32:30
  Speaker 4: of a wall, his wall. You know, usually he just
• 32:33
  Speaker 4: breaks it down a little bit sooner than most of us.
• 32:35
  Speaker 4: But he'll be just fine. And it's good to see
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: him back out there. The stuff look elite and look electric,
• 32:39
  Speaker 4: especially that last outing against the Nationals.
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: And I think it's just all about him getting back
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: in his zone. I think he'll be just fine.
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: I just I just want to know why they didn't
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: let him go back out there for a second inning.
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: That's that's my question. If they're trying to build him up,
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: If he threw more pitches in his first outing, why
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: are they only having him throw one inning in a
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: second one. Why don't let him go back out there.
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: He's gonna long term going to be a guy you're
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: counting on. Wouldn't you want to send him back out
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: there at least for a couple of pitches, just so
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: he gets used to getting up and down. Unless he's
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: just gonna be a one ning guy.
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: But that's that's my concern. Aj. I think he looks gassed.
• 33:12
  Speaker 4: I think they like I think he looked gassed, And
• 33:14
  Speaker 4: as I'm with you, I thought the same thing. And
• 33:16
  Speaker 4: it's like, this is show here, Tony, this is your
• 33:20
  Speaker 4: franchise guy. And I just think he looked his bat
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: looked a little slow in those first at bats. I know,
• 33:25
  Speaker 4: the adrenaline is pumping like crazy as you go out
• 33:27
  Speaker 4: and start, especially in Dodger Stadium, the crowds behind you,
• 33:30
  Speaker 4: no matter who you're facing. I just think it was
• 33:33
  Speaker 4: more so, you know what, he looked gassed. Let's get
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: him out of there. But I think they're still going
• 33:37
  Speaker 4: to try to eventually get to that point. But again,
• 33:39
  Speaker 4: this lineup, they got a Max Munsey. It was Max
• 33:42
  Speaker 4: Munsey day yesterday. You know, get on that guy's back.
• 33:44
  Speaker 4: You know, they have so many ways to beat you
• 33:46
  Speaker 4: that they don't have to rush him back, even in
• 33:49
  Speaker 4: trying to stretch him out. I feel like so I
• 33:50
  Speaker 4: think it was just more of than reading the room,
• 33:52
  Speaker 4: and I think that's why I think Dave Roberts even
• 33:54
  Speaker 4: went on wax to say, like, we might need to
• 33:56
  Speaker 4: think about moving him down the lineup on his start
• 33:58
  Speaker 4: day so he's not so gassed.
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: I've got a quote for you, Yeah, Dave Roberts said postgame.
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: I think we're always going to be cautious, so I
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: don't even know what that's going to look like to
• 34:10
  Speaker 3: be fully built up. I don't think anyone knows what
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: that looks like because it's not a normal starting pitcher
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: to say, six innings and ninety pitches. I don't even
• 34:17
  Speaker 3: know if we'll get to that point now. In fairness,
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: it sounded like he wasn't coming back until later in July,
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: and here he is now. I think part of this quote,
• 34:28
  Speaker 3: to me, Cam is about the fact that it's whatever
• 34:31
  Speaker 3: show Hey wants to do. If Show Hey in September
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: is like, Yo, I'm going ninety plus and six innings
• 34:38
  Speaker 3: because I feel good, then they're not going to stop him.
• 34:40
  Speaker 3: I think they just don't really have much intel because
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: it's more about hey show, Hey, how you feeling. We
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: had Joe Madden on the show last week, and that's
• 34:48
  Speaker 3: essentially what he told us after they got through the
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: show Hey rules that they created and he said I'm
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: going to take over. They basically would just talk to him,
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: be like, what do you want to do, and then
• 34:55
  Speaker 3: he would tell them yeah.
• 34:57
  Speaker 4: And I think you have even more room to do
• 35:00
  Speaker 4: that when you are coming off a World Series championship.
• 35:02
  Speaker 4: And he didn't throw in any so I think you
• 35:04
  Speaker 4: have the luxury when you talk about other guys who
• 35:06
  Speaker 4: possibly could be back later on, there's no reason to
• 35:10
  Speaker 4: rush him out there again.
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: Check on him. How do you feel. I'm a little gas,
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: I'm a little winner.
• 35:14
  Speaker 4: And it seems like one thing he's really good at
• 35:16
  Speaker 4: doing is being honest with himself and the team. So
• 35:19
  Speaker 4: I think that's also a superpower of guys being honest
• 35:22
  Speaker 4: about how they feel, especially this guy. So I think
• 35:25
  Speaker 4: it's a smart way to go about it. And I
• 35:27
  Speaker 4: think the track record of them winning a World Series
• 35:29
  Speaker 4: last year with him not throwing an inning makes it
• 35:31
  Speaker 4: even more easy for them to go, Hey, let's just
• 35:35
  Speaker 4: take this as slow as we need to.
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: By the way, let's get Max Muncie, my guy.
• 35:40
  Speaker 6: Some love.
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: Shout out Maxim.
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: Ever since he saw me, he is hot. I mean
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: he is so hot since he saw me. So I
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: don't know. I'm just saying, you guys want to get
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: hot out there watching baseball, come on to FT. We'll
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: get you hot. We'll get you.

  Speaker 5: come on Ft.
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: You know who always every time I walk into the
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: Padres clubhouse runs up to me, Tyler Wade. He's like, dude,
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: thank you means I'm gonna get in the game today.
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: Every time. I'm telling you every time, and then every
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: time I go into Shields office, I'm like, hey, Wade
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: needs to play today, and she'll just laughs. He's like, oh,
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: he'll get in there somehow, play left field or short stop,
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: or he'll pinch your onn or do something. He's like,
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: I know you're here. You're his guy. So he comes
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: up to me every time. And listen, man, Jackson Merrill
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: came back yesterday. Uh, Gavin, by the way, Gavin Sheets
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: is having a great year, so good for him and
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: the Royals.
• 36:54
  Speaker 4: Man.
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: The Royals have a good group of guys too, between
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: Bobby with and uh, some of those guys, Vinnie and
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: Jack Kegleone and O Salvi obviously. I mean, listen, those
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: are two of my favorite teams to cover, just because
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: I like the guys and they're just fun to be around.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: I mean, sorry, all.
• 37:13
  Speaker 5: Right, let's move to a couple others next up.
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: I know, Cam you were not pleased with a call
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: between the Red Sox and the Giants, and we'll get
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: to that series in general right now, but let's start
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: with the call. So Jaron Duran, tagged out by Willie
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: Domas replaced, said, yeah, he was slightly.
• 37:31
  Speaker 5: Off the bag.
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: I actually saw that too, So are you saying that
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: you didn't see it, or that you don't like that
• 37:38
  Speaker 3: it's so close, And that's what replay is for.
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 37:42
  Speaker 4: I actually the way I looked at it is when
• 37:45
  Speaker 4: they replayed it and they slowed it down and they
• 37:48
  Speaker 4: come to that one screenshot, it looked like his fingers.
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: Were on the bag to me.
• 37:53
  Speaker 4: So for me, I just understand after having these, you know,
• 37:57
  Speaker 4: questions answered so many times. You know, at the end
• 38:00
  Speaker 4: of the day, if the field, if the call on
• 38:03
  Speaker 4: the field is out. What I was told is even
• 38:05
  Speaker 4: if those screens, those monitors in New York, if if
• 38:09
  Speaker 4: it's fourteen monitors and third to thirteen of them, stay safe,
• 38:14
  Speaker 4: but that one angle still looks like out, We're gonna
• 38:17
  Speaker 4: go with the call on the field.
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: And that just makes no sense to me.
• 38:21
  Speaker 4: So I love, you know, I think Alex Korra, I
• 38:24
  Speaker 4: think the people on the you know, at the game.
• 38:26
  Speaker 4: When you're watch it on the jumbo tron as a
• 38:27
  Speaker 4: player too, it's even more obvious. You know, when you're
• 38:31
  Speaker 4: at home sometime and you get these angles at home
• 38:33
  Speaker 4: that you get on TV. Sometimes you can't tell, but
• 38:36
  Speaker 4: when you're looking up at the jumbo Tron and you're
• 38:38
  Speaker 4: seeing this, I mean, it's big HD fashion as possible.
• 38:43
  Speaker 4: I think that's what people don't understand the frustration from
• 38:45
  Speaker 4: Duran and Alex Cora because on the Jumbo Tron it's
• 38:49
  Speaker 4: obvious probably that hey, his finger is in there. So
• 38:53
  Speaker 4: for me, I just I don't understand how we're still
• 38:55
  Speaker 4: missing these plays with replay, and then too, my other
• 38:59
  Speaker 4: graph is just slide it to the bag. I'm tired
• 39:01
  Speaker 4: of seeing guy's oversliped the bag. It makes me, it
• 39:03
  Speaker 4: drives me crazy. I was a base stealer. I was
• 39:06
  Speaker 4: a guy who prided this game on his speed and athleticism.
• 39:09
  Speaker 4: But it drives me crazy how many times and how
• 39:11
  Speaker 4: often I see guys overslip the bag. So that's another
• 39:14
  Speaker 4: conversation we can have. We got to figure that out
• 39:17
  Speaker 4: as well. But uh yeah, I think replay we got
• 39:19
  Speaker 4: to figure out how to get this right.
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: Or to even start. I mean, replay is awful. I
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: can't figure it out. I can't figure it out. Nobody
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: can figure it. Sometimes they're they're clear as day and
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: they just don't want to change it because of person,
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: I don't know whatever. But the bigger thing to me,
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: and this is the devers. Devers went deepest first time
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: is giant O'Brien bo right afo taco. Oh, it's so
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: hard to hit in San Fran Watch his black and
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: it ain't that tough. Oh by the way, that's not
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: a homer in Boston either, because the Green Monster kills it.
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: But it's a homer in San Fran. So just see
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: what they got him in for. This is what they
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: brought him here for. To do this. I know the
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: Giants didn't have the series they wanted to have, but listen,
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: Dever's gonna get settled in. He's gonna keep doing this
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: and Giants fan are gonna love him.
• 40:01
  Speaker 4: Hey, And isn't it amazing how how far communication goes
• 40:05
  Speaker 4: guys All of a sudden.
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: Now, all we're hearing.
• 40:07
  Speaker 4: Is Devers is willing to do what after the Giants
• 40:09
  Speaker 4: wants him to do. He'll play first, he'll do he'll
• 40:13
  Speaker 4: mix in that third. Isn't it funny how just a
• 40:15
  Speaker 4: little bit of communication goes so far with guys, Like,
• 40:18
  Speaker 4: all of a sudden, now it's like Devs will do
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: whatever the team wants. When it was just all, you know,
• 40:22
  Speaker 4: came down to a lack of communication for me. So
• 40:26
  Speaker 4: fun funny, funny.
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: How that works?
• 40:28
  Speaker 4: The narrative is totally changing when you talk about how
• 40:30
  Speaker 4: he's acting in the Giants uniform.
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: So we'll see how long that lasts.
• 40:34
  Speaker 4: But all of a sudden, he's back to that happy
• 40:35
  Speaker 4: go looking guy that we always heard that he was.
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: So by the way, funny Giants. The Giants won two
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: out of three in that series. They probably could have
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: won the whole what swept him, But listen, this is
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: what they brought him there for. Score runs, do these things.
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: And Foster Posey's smiling right now. He's smiling. He's like, Oh,
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: we got a dude that can hit it all over
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: the yard. This is why we brought him in. And Giants.
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: Giants are gonna be trouble. Giants are gonna be a
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: tough out in.
• 41:02

• 42:02
  Speaker 3: Hey, let's look at that O'Neil Cruz play from the weekend.
• 42:06
  Speaker 3: What happened here, mister outfield or camp?
• 42:09
  Speaker 4: Little routine play, little routine Yeah, a little routine play
• 42:14
  Speaker 4: from O'Neil Cruz. But what gets me is sometimes he
• 42:17
  Speaker 4: plays with this lack of daisical, you know, mindset. He
• 42:20
  Speaker 4: comes out and he just kind of goes to the motions,
• 42:22
  Speaker 4: and I think, you know, now, being on the other
• 42:25
  Speaker 4: side is as I think about moments like that is
• 42:28
  Speaker 4: you know, some guys just get in a habit of
• 42:32
  Speaker 4: I think, taking playing big league baseball for granted, right,
• 42:36
  Speaker 4: you wake up every day, you get to put on
• 42:38
  Speaker 4: the big league uniform, getting paid millions of dollars. You're
• 42:41
  Speaker 4: one of the elite players in the game, even though
• 42:44
  Speaker 4: I still feel like he has a lot that he
• 42:46
  Speaker 4: could get better at. And I think right there, it
• 42:48
  Speaker 4: shows you first and foremost. First and foremost is everything energy.
• 42:51
  Speaker 4: I think, you know, seeing that is just it's hard
• 42:54
  Speaker 4: to watch, especially as a Pittsburgh Pirates fans when so
• 42:57
  Speaker 4: much is going on around the team. Yeah, you know
• 43:00
  Speaker 4: outside the baseball field, but you get that type of effort,
• 43:02
  Speaker 4: and one thing that you controls energy and efforts.
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: So seeing that.
• 43:05
  Speaker 4: It was disappointing when you talk about the athlete that
• 43:08
  Speaker 4: he is, the ability that he has, and oh no cruise,
• 43:12
  Speaker 4: And I just think, you know, it should have been
• 43:13
  Speaker 4: a situation where accountability. It may be a game or two.
• 43:16
  Speaker 4: You gotta sit over here, but and think about that.
• 43:18
  Speaker 4: Think about you know, what we're trying to do. If
• 43:20
  Speaker 4: I'm DK, if I'm Don Kelly, trying to really create
• 43:22
  Speaker 4: an atmosphere, really trying to create a culture of accountability
• 43:26
  Speaker 4: and guys playing the game the right way, that can't happen.
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: So thank God for him that his right fielder was
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: actually on.
• 43:32
  Speaker 4: The move to back him up, so it made it
• 43:34
  Speaker 4: it didn't look as bad as it really did, even
• 43:37
  Speaker 4: though it looked pretty bad.
• 43:41
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that's what he said.
• 43:42
  Speaker 5: That's what he said.
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: That's what he said.
• 43:45
  Speaker 5: That's what he said. Where we begin here.
• 43:51
  Speaker 3: So the rock Fael Devers saga not only continues, but
• 43:55
  Speaker 3: it's going to continue for a long time. Why because
• 43:58
  Speaker 3: people are going to track how he fares, how the
• 44:01
  Speaker 3: return package looks for Boston, how Boston does this season
• 44:04
  Speaker 3: and beyond, how of course the Giants do with him
• 44:06
  Speaker 3: this season and beyond.
• 44:07
  Speaker 5: But we also just have continuous tea being spilled.
• 44:10
  Speaker 3: Jeff Passing with a really good, in depth article about
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: how they botched this and how it got so messy
• 44:16
  Speaker 3: with Devers and with the entire organization basically going up
• 44:20
  Speaker 3: against him. But also within that article, aj is word
• 44:25
  Speaker 3: on Craig Breslow having to kind of weather the storm
• 44:28
  Speaker 3: within the front office.
• 44:29
  Speaker 5: This has been a problem for the Red Sox for
• 44:31
  Speaker 5: a while.
• 44:31
  Speaker 3: I mean, we were having a hard time finding candidates
• 44:35
  Speaker 3: that would actually even go for an interview. There were
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: so many people that turned down this position initially because
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: they said, there's so much drama with people that are
• 44:42
  Speaker 3: in place already, so fast forward five seconds later. Here
• 44:45
  Speaker 3: it is so I'll give you one of the quotes
• 44:47
  Speaker 3: that stood out, but there are quite a few here.
• 44:50
  Speaker 3: Breslow loyalists fear the consequences of, you know, some longtime
• 44:56
  Speaker 3: employees that were taken out by the company that he
• 44:59
  Speaker 3: brought in to basically play in that what was that
• 45:02
  Speaker 3: old movie office space where they bring him in and
• 45:04
  Speaker 3: they're like, so what is it that you do here?
• 45:06
  Speaker 3: And they cut a lot of people loose. But the
• 45:09
  Speaker 3: quote here is there are definitely turncoats internally plotting against
• 45:15
  Speaker 3: bres Thoughts on that part of the story.
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: AJ a bad start. That's a bad start. I played
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: with bres I like Brez. He was a good guy.
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: Whish he texts me back every once in a while
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: and come on the show. But that's a different story.
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: That's a personal decision. But I like bros. It's not
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: what you want to hear.
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: I mean, listen, he did the best he could. Devers
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: wasn't gonna work out in Boston. He traded him. He
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: got some value back, so give him a little bit
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: of credit for that. But it's a tough job man.
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: That's Kayan Bloom how tough it is. Ask some of
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: these people theof' seen some of these other people that
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: have had to go through this. It's a tough job
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: running the Boston Red Sox. It can be lucrative and
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: it can be very rewarding, but it can also wear
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: you out.
• 45:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you have to be the guy that's willing to
• 45:56
  Speaker 4: go in there understanding that you're going to be the skapegoat.
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: So I think that's the biggest thing.
• 46:01
  Speaker 4: Whoever that guy is, like Brez, I think his skin
• 46:04
  Speaker 4: is thicker than most. I think he had an idea
• 46:06
  Speaker 4: that this is the kind of organization that you're gonna,
• 46:09
  Speaker 4: you know, you know, make yourself a part of. But
• 46:12
  Speaker 4: I'm with you, Aj, It's not a good start when
• 46:14
  Speaker 4: you have people in the same organization behind it scenes
• 46:16
  Speaker 4: rooting against you and rooting for you.
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: DEMI.
• 46:19
  Speaker 4: So I think this, Listen, this goes back probably to
• 46:22
  Speaker 4: Mookie Betts when he got traded. A lot of things
• 46:25
  Speaker 4: that happened that shouldn't have happened, a lot of conversations
• 46:28
  Speaker 4: that went on that didn't go on. And I think
• 46:29
  Speaker 4: it's just a snowball effect of how ownership has been.
• 46:33
  Speaker 4: You know, the last few years. I think it's starting
• 46:35
  Speaker 4: to red it's ugly head.
• 46:38
  Speaker 3: Some other quotes that stood out here past and talking
• 46:40
  Speaker 3: to some rival officials, including a rival general manager who
• 46:44
  Speaker 3: said these are the Boston bleeping Red Sox. You don't
• 46:47
  Speaker 3: trade your stars. But then there were other officials from
• 46:49
  Speaker 3: front offices who said, here's one unquote anonymous. Obviously, Boston
• 46:54
  Speaker 3: absolutely botched this entire Dever situation, and somehow it all
• 46:58
  Speaker 3: resulted in them getting to dump what was both an
• 47:00
  Speaker 3: underwater contract and a distraction, while also getting a bunch
• 47:03
  Speaker 3: of value back in return. It was like, Oops, we
• 47:06
  Speaker 3: overpaid for a decade of our bat only star, pissed
• 47:08
  Speaker 3: him off publicly, then continue to bungle every subsequent opportunity
• 47:12
  Speaker 3: to get things right. Why don't you give us a
• 47:14
  Speaker 3: controllable mid rotation starter and your first round pick from
• 47:17
  Speaker 3: last year and help us get out of it. I
• 47:20
  Speaker 3: see things a little differently, Cam. I mean, I know
• 47:23
  Speaker 3: Vladdie probably is getting overpaid by Toronto, but those are
• 47:26
  Speaker 3: very similar numbers, and this is half that contract for
• 47:29
  Speaker 3: almost the same amount of years and a very similar
• 47:32
  Speaker 3: age between those two.
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I'll disagree.
• 47:35
  Speaker 4: Devers is easily top ten one of the best bats
• 47:38
  Speaker 4: in our game. He has been, so you know, forever
• 47:41
  Speaker 4: said that anonymous was you know, I definitely disagree.
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: But you can look at it a few different ways.
• 47:47
  Speaker 4: At the end of the day, Listen, if you have
• 47:48
  Speaker 4: a disgruntled player and you feel like as an organization
• 47:51
  Speaker 4: it's going to start to hinder you know, the clubhouse,
• 47:55
  Speaker 4: the things that are going on inside the clubhouse, I
• 47:59
  Speaker 4: think you have to make a decision.
• 48:01
  Speaker 2: I think now too. Also, I think.
• 48:02
  Speaker 4: When you look at the Devers deal, when you look
• 48:04
  Speaker 4: at the deals that guys like Bladdie are getting, the
• 48:06
  Speaker 4: deals that Kyle Tucker will give, all these big deals,
• 48:10
  Speaker 4: I think, now you look at it where Buster Posey
• 48:12
  Speaker 4: looked at a situation where hell, it ain't that much
• 48:14
  Speaker 4: money to pick up, When you look at what we're
• 48:16
  Speaker 4: gonna spend on Judge, when we're willing to pay Korea
• 48:19
  Speaker 4: and that type of generational bad I think Buster Posey
• 48:22
  Speaker 4: looks at it the same way I look at it.
• 48:23
  Speaker 4: When you add that type of bat to that type
• 48:25
  Speaker 4: of lineup, you get better immediately. And I think maybe
• 48:28
  Speaker 4: those anonymous people are unevaluing, you know, undervaluing his ability
• 48:32
  Speaker 4: at the plate because of all this outside stuff, But
• 48:34
  Speaker 4: you can't deny that Raphael Devers isn't a top ten
• 48:37
  Speaker 4: hitter in our game today and has been for the
• 48:39
  Speaker 4: last seven years.
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: Also, it was important for the Giants to get a star.
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: Let's just be honest. There you go for them to
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: get a star, and Buster Posey is in the win
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: now mode and he thinks they got a chance to
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: get into the postseason with Ray and Web and some
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: of their way, their bullpen's pitch, they can get in
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: and maybe do some damage. So listen, I don't mind this.
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: I mean listen, they're like, oh, this and that, he
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: gave up this, he gave up first round pick, he
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: gave up I mean, picks has been okay, gets heard
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: a lot. He hasn't been really able to pitch as
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: a starter. I mean fine, they threw him in offset
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: some of the money. I mean, I like this for
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: the Giants. I thought it was a good move for them.
• 49:18
  Speaker 3: The other part, the other part of the story aj
• 49:21
  Speaker 3: that I mean was confirmed yet again and has been
• 49:23
  Speaker 3: confirmed by others as well. And you know, I've even
• 49:26
  Speaker 3: gotten first hand account you I think as well, is
• 49:29
  Speaker 3: how the communication process went, because I think there's been
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: some rumors thrown out there about what was going on.
• 49:35
  Speaker 3: I mean him getting like pissed at Christian Campbell at
• 49:38
  Speaker 3: one point, which then was refuted by others. And the
• 49:41
  Speaker 3: story that seems to be the clear one here that
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: people that I trust are putting out there is off
• 49:49
  Speaker 3: season's happening. They're communicating with him or trying to and saying, hey,
• 49:53
  Speaker 3: there's nothing to worry about. Nothing's happening. Do your thing,
• 49:56
  Speaker 3: take ground balls at third, prepare yourself all off season
• 49:59
  Speaker 3: for three. That in itself was a mistake because if
• 50:02
  Speaker 3: they're going after a third baseman, just freaking tell him
• 50:05
  Speaker 3: what are you scared of him? They basically told him
• 50:07
  Speaker 3: it was rumors and don't believe it. Then they signed Bragman.
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: He still thinks he's good because then he's hearing internally
• 50:12
  Speaker 3: that they're going to play him at second base. So
• 50:14
  Speaker 3: he's like, okay, nothing until he actually shows up and
• 50:17
  Speaker 3: they sit him down and in this story basically said
• 50:20
  Speaker 3: that they showed him a computer model that says we're
• 50:22
  Speaker 3: a better team. If you're a DH, throw your glove out,
• 50:25
  Speaker 3: throw it away, don't even bring it on the field.
• 50:27
  Speaker 3: He was bringing up like, hey, why don't we transition me,
• 50:29
  Speaker 3: can I play a little bit of third a No,
• 50:32
  Speaker 3: we don't want you touching a glove anymore. That's a
• 50:35
  Speaker 3: shot to the ego the way that they kind of
• 50:37
  Speaker 3: approach that whole situation. And I know we've gone over this,
• 50:39
  Speaker 3: but the story again confirms the fact Cam that they
• 50:43
  Speaker 3: really went after him in a way that doesn't make
• 50:46
  Speaker 3: a lot of sense. He's your franchise player. To me,
• 50:48
  Speaker 3: it's almost like, were you trying to piss him off
• 50:50
  Speaker 3: to get rid.
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: Of the contract.
• 50:51
  Speaker 4: They treated him like he was going through arbitration. Hey,
• 50:55
  Speaker 4: you're really good, but this is what we don't like
• 50:56
  Speaker 4: about you. And it's like, you gave this guy all
• 50:58
  Speaker 4: this money, so in turn, you put yourself in a
• 51:01
  Speaker 4: bad situation because.
• 51:02
  Speaker 2: You gave the guy all this guaranteed money.
• 51:05
  Speaker 4: So now you know this guy that you hope is
• 51:07
  Speaker 4: just gonna roll over and just take this this lack
• 51:09
  Speaker 4: of communication, He's like, screw you, guys.
• 51:12
  Speaker 2: Actually I'm already paid.
• 51:13
  Speaker 4: I'll come in here pissed off every freaking day until
• 51:16
  Speaker 4: I make you guys have to make a decision. So
• 51:17
  Speaker 4: at the end of the day, I just think the
• 51:19
  Speaker 4: Boston Red Sox they dropped the ball in this whole situation.
• 51:21
  Speaker 4: And like I said prior to and you just mentioned it,
• 51:24
  Speaker 4: it all started with a lack of communication.
• 51:26
  Speaker 2: Hey, you pay this guy. Hey, we paid you already.
• 51:28
  Speaker 2: How about this conversation. We gave you money. We're gonna
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: get a third baseman.
• 51:32
  Speaker 4: Hey, he might play, Sure, you might play second, but
• 51:34
  Speaker 4: he's definitely gonna play some third base. You just start
• 51:36
  Speaker 4: working at first. You just start doing whatever you need
• 51:38
  Speaker 4: to do to be ready. This all could have been
• 51:40
  Speaker 4: nipping above and this all could have been handled greatly,
• 51:43
  Speaker 4: and this.
• 51:43
  Speaker 2: Could have worked out for Boston where they had.
• 51:46
  Speaker 4: Devs who they communicated with, happy willing to say, hey,
• 51:49
  Speaker 4: bring Alex Berkman in. I want to win again. It's
• 51:52
  Speaker 4: just a lack of communication and we're here and now
• 51:54
  Speaker 4: all of this tea is feeling that. To me, it's
• 51:57
  Speaker 4: ugly for the game.
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: I wish we could move on. Happened.
• 52:00
  Speaker 4: Let's wipe our hands with it and let the Boston
• 52:02
  Speaker 4: Red Sox and the Giants.
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: Continue on with their seasons. But you know, this is
• 52:05
  Speaker 2: the world we live in.
• 52:06
  Speaker 4: We got drama sales and we want to hear what happens.
• 52:09
  Speaker 5: So yeah, and you.
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: Have Boston stars fighting with each other. I mean Boston
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: former stars fighting with each other. We got dudes showing
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: text messages on Instagram and Twitter, like what are we
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: doing exactly? Where are we at here? Like what I mean, Ken,
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: would you be like if you're texting somebody and they
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: and they whatever? Would you be like, Hey, look guys,
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: here's my I want to prove you on what we are.
• 52:34
  Speaker 2: That's so whactive. What are we doing exactly? Exactly? And
• 52:38
  Speaker 2: that's the day and age.
• 52:39
  Speaker 4: We're in social media where people don't know how to
• 52:40
  Speaker 4: just pick up the phone.
• 52:42
  Speaker 2: You got to issue call that person.
• 52:44
  Speaker 4: More times than not, we can get in touch with
• 52:45
  Speaker 4: anybody we want to if we have an issue.
• 52:47
  Speaker 2: So it's just like the whole going behind scenes and
• 52:50
  Speaker 2: showing picture proof and all that.
• 52:52
  Speaker 4: To me, it's a little cowardice, it's a little it's
• 52:55
  Speaker 4: a little childish. And I think again, at the end
• 52:57
  Speaker 4: of the day, we're talking about baseball for a lift.
• 52:59
  Speaker 4: We're talking about old men getting to play a kids
• 53:01
  Speaker 4: game for a living. People drop the ball on both ends.
• 53:04
  Speaker 4: Let's take accountability and let's move on and let's move forward.
• 53:07
  Speaker 4: I think that's what needs to happen.
• 53:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Poppy's going after and big poppy and it's it's
• 53:12
  Speaker 3: a little weird at this point, they're not friends. Leave
• 53:14
  Speaker 3: the kid alone, dude, it's gotten weird.
• 53:17
  Speaker 5: I'm with you.
• 53:31
  Speaker 6: Big congratulations out to Nick Kifreda. I don't know, but
• 53:36
  Speaker 6: it was funny. Anytime you can get a meme making
• 53:40
  Speaker 6: fun of AJ, I like it. Congratulations your two tickets.
• 53:44
  Speaker 6: I'll be on your way.
• 53:47
  Speaker 5: Congratulations Nick.
• 53:48
  Speaker 3: Here it is so player guests laughing at AJ's jokes,
• 53:51
  Speaker 3: so they'll be invited back there.
• 53:53
  Speaker 5: It is.
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: I hadn't even seen that, so that made me laugh.
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: So yeah, you know what we got. I'm missed. I
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: got missed to laugh. So he know he knew that
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: the Polish, the Polish Prince controls the Polish mafia, so
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: he knew that he had to laugh at my jokes.
• 54:08
  Speaker 5: Mm hmmm. It was good.
• 54:09
  Speaker 3: It was well played. So anyway, that was the contest
• 54:11
  Speaker 3: that we were running last week. It expired on uh
• 54:15
  Speaker 3: Monday at midnight, and then Kratz went through them all
• 54:17
  Speaker 3: this morning and saw where he was chuckling the most
• 54:20
  Speaker 3: and picked picked out Nick. So he's going to get
• 54:22
  Speaker 3: himself two tickets to a game of his choice up
• 54:24
  Speaker 3: to four hundred bucks. If you want to be involved
• 54:26
  Speaker 3: in the next one Foul Territory dot chat to start
• 54:29
  Speaker 3: chatting with FT hosts and the FT fam.
• 54:32
  Speaker 5: We talked ball.
• 54:32
  Speaker 3: We have our host chat in our side chat, and
• 54:34
  Speaker 3: we're giving away two tickets every week for a while,
• 54:37
  Speaker 3: So keep an eye on the next one, which we'll
• 54:39
  Speaker 3: announce later this week. A couple other things I want
• 54:42
  Speaker 3: to get to. First off, a couple of Mets moves.
• 54:44
  Speaker 3: Louis An hell Ocunya and Francisco Alvrez both optioned in
• 54:48
  Speaker 3: the last couple of days. Akunya makes more sense. I mean,
• 54:50
  Speaker 3: they've got some pretty good depth here. Aj and you
• 54:53
  Speaker 3: know he hasn't been hitting too well. Alvarez, I mean
• 54:55
  Speaker 3: kind of the same thing. You know, some people are like, well,
• 54:58
  Speaker 3: his numbers are not that bad. He's supposed to be
• 55:00
  Speaker 3: a thirty plus homer bat. I think he's got three
• 55:02
  Speaker 3: homers so far this year. They want him to get
• 55:04
  Speaker 3: a little reset going. There's a Kunya, so he gets
• 55:07
  Speaker 3: sent down. I mean, the Mets have a lot of
• 55:09
  Speaker 3: depth from a position player standpoint, They're able to do this,
• 55:12
  Speaker 3: and they've been talking about this for like four to
• 55:14
  Speaker 3: six weeks, even on the SNY broadcast.
• 55:17
  Speaker 5: They mentioned a while.
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: Back, here's the thing with Alvarez. You know, his home runs,
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: his offense and what they are. The problem is his
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: blocking and his framing has gone to the bottom of
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: the league. And that was kind of what he was
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: known for. Yes, he had power, but he would also
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: strike out a tongue, which we knew was coming. But
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: the problem is his defense has gone bad and that
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: that can't happen. As a catcher, your defense has to
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: stay the same whether you're hitting or not hitting, and
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: his hasn't done that. That would to me is the
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: more important thing here. They want to send him down,
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: get him some work defensively before they can bring him
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: back in Terrentz and by the way, the least Terrenz
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: is really good back there, so that also didn't help
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: his cause. Yeah, that also doesn't help your cause.
• 55:56
  Speaker 2: And Arentz has really good at bats as well too.
• 56:00
  Speaker 4: Defensively he's good, but if you watch us at bats,
• 56:02
  Speaker 4: he has quality at bats what they need right now,
• 56:04
  Speaker 4: especially when you look at where they are. So it
• 56:07
  Speaker 4: makes sense. And Luis an Hellcunya, you just didn't hit enough.
• 56:10
  Speaker 4: I think they have some more guys that they want
• 56:12
  Speaker 4: to get at bests, and I think have a little
• 56:14
  Speaker 4: bit more damage in their swings.
• 56:15
  Speaker 2: So it makes sense to me when you look at it.
• 56:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I like it the Bets not being satisfied where
• 56:21
  Speaker 4: they are too. I like it trying to see if
• 56:23
  Speaker 4: they can find some sparks in other places.
• 56:25
  Speaker 2: That continue to help most of this lineup.
• 56:27
  Speaker 4: So hey, you know, shout out to the Mets for
• 56:29
  Speaker 4: not being complacent and comfortable with what they have out there.
• 56:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they want to try and get Alvarez, right, I mean,
• 56:34
  Speaker 3: this team that should make the playoffs, they're certainly in
• 56:36
  Speaker 3: a good position right now, but they're in a fight
• 56:37
  Speaker 3: for the division with the Phillies.
• 56:39
  Speaker 5: They're really close.
• 56:40
  Speaker 3: Also, by the way, Pete Alonzo, when we spoke to
• 56:43
  Speaker 3: him in spring training, actually called out Tonds. He was like,
• 56:45
  Speaker 3: that's my pick to click this year, And obviously a
• 56:47
  Speaker 3: lot of people were like, what the backup catcher and he's.
• 56:49
  Speaker 5: Like, dude, his swings look great. So good call by Pete.
• 56:53
  Speaker 3: All right, last minute here, we want to give our
• 56:55
  Speaker 3: thoughts and prayers out to Scott Miller's family. The late
• 57:00
  Speaker 3: great writer passed away this weekend, way way way too young.
• 57:04
  Speaker 3: We had him on the show about a month ago.
• 57:06
  Speaker 3: He's been in Major League baseball writing for a very
• 57:09
  Speaker 3: long time for a number of different publications, and had
• 57:12
  Speaker 3: a book that is just coming out. So I know
• 57:15
  Speaker 3: we pumped that and we'll continue to do so. But
• 57:18
  Speaker 3: word from Bob Nightingale, Baseball lost a giant. He was
• 57:21
  Speaker 3: a brilliant writer and even better human. His gift for
• 57:24
  Speaker 3: storytelling embodied his kind, soul and heart. I loved him
• 57:27
  Speaker 3: and so did all blessed to know him. Please keep
• 57:29
  Speaker 3: Kim Gretchen and family in prayer, his wife and his daughter,
• 57:33
  Speaker 3: so Scott Miller and family. We're thinking about on a
• 57:37
  Speaker 3: daylight today. Very difficult to hear the news over the weekend.
