  Speaker 1: ace in Motown actually want to be in Detroit or

• 2:45
  Speaker 1: So our lead this hour is from baseball and I
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: got a couple of emails over the weekend I understand
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: why you're not into the whole World Baseball Classic.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: I don't hate it, It's.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Just not something I'm all joned up for. I did
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: watch what a great game. I watched the Mexico game
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: on Fox Sports one. I think it was FS one.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: Mexico played Brazil. I believe it was sixteen to nothing,
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: very competitive game, outstanding, good competition. There love athletic competition,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: but I believe it is from the World Baseball Classic,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: where Philly star Bryce Harper was a trending topic over
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: the weekend. What did he do? Did Bryce Harper end
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: up getting hurt? Did he No, he didn't get hurt.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Did he hit three home run? No, he didn't hit
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: three homer Did he demand a trade did the Yankees?
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: No?
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: No, he didn't do that. None of the above, None
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: of the above. One of the stars of USA's World
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Cup World Baseball team, the WBC, Bryce Harper, came out
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: and he gave a less than ringing endorsement of the
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: World Baseball Classic. Harper had a lot to say. I
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: think we have some audio on this. I believe, let's
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: say we do or not. All right, here we go,
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: here's a Bryce Harper and his thoughts on the World
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: Baseball Classic in comparison to that other event that happens
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: every few years. Let's go to the audio tape take
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: a listen.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: Obviously, the WC has been great, but it's not the Olympics.
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: That's no disrespect to the WC or anything, but everybody
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: knows that when the Olympics are on, everybody's watching, no
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: matter what sport it is. It could be the most
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: random sport and it's got, you know, all the fans
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: watching it.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: So I'm hoping, you know, like twenty eight happens.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: All right, so again I've been the WBC has been great,
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: it's not the Olympics, but it's not the Olympics.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: So this was met with condemnation, damnation and vilification. How
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: dare you? How dare you Bryce Harper not go with
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: the orthodox and say how great the World Baseball Classic
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: is because that's what you're supposed to do, and he
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: didn't do it so good. Jumping off point, let us
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: discuss the question how did Bryce Harper's comments about the
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: WBC the World Baseball Classic not being the Olympics up
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: to the standard of the Olympics land with you. So
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: I've got five guys combo meal, cookie cutter, stucco house,
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: and burger king, and we will combine all of these
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: things together and we are going to play nice in
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: the sandbox unless we don't. So number one, I said,
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: Number y'all right, all right, stop it, please trying to
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: do a show you So, Bryce Harper says, the World
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: Baseball Classic is great, but it's not the Olympics. And
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: as you know from being a loyal minion in the
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: mal Ord Militia, whether you're sworn it or not, you
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: know that that word but but but but but but
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: but but but butt is doing a lot of heavy lifting.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: Every man, woman and child that has paid any attention
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: to the Overnight Show knows that anything before the word
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: butt is a lie. It's a lie. It's the classic
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: political weasel move, no disrespect, but here comes the disrespect
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: now truth bomb, truth bomb. But but butt, but that
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: is the universal lie detector word. It's like when your
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: buddy says, you know, I'm not trying to start a fight,
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: but yeah, suddenly you know, you guys are squaring up,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: there's chairs flying.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: What you're doing? Dude?
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: Harper nailed it, Like save the faux outrage. The Olympics
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: are the super Bowl of global sports. Now I'm not
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: a big Olympic guy either, but I am fair enough
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: to point out that the Olympics are If you're into
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: that kind of thing, the global sporting scene, that's where
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: it's at.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: The WBC.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: It might as well be a preseason Bowl game in Shreeport, Okay.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: And you know who secretly agrees with Bryce Harper but
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: will never admit it. We'll never admit it major League based. Well,
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: the whole thing exists because Major League Baseball got kicked
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: out of the Olympics in the first place. They were
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: not deemed cool enough for the Olympics. Have you seen
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: some of the fugaese sports in the Olympics, And they
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: kicked baseball out. They got tossed out like a scam
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: artist caught counting cards in Vegas. Technically not illegal, but
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: you're not welcome here anymore. And Bud Selick, who was
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: the commission at the time, and his evil henchman.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Who's been proven to be a worse commissioner.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: Than Bud rob manfraud cooked this thing up in a panic.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: And look all you need to know about how unpopular
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: it is the ticket prices. Did you know that the
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: USA Opener, Now they played a couple of games, but
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: I think it was on Friday. They buy in price
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: on the secondary market for the USA Opener, the World
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: Baseball Classic. It was actually cheaper to buy a ticket
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: to the World Baseball Classic than to go to five
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: Guys and get a combo or just even a cheeseburger.
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: That tells you everything.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: It also tells you the five Guys is overpriced, but
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: that's a different conversation. Listen again, we'll watch. I did watch.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: I've been watching. I've been checking it out.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: You know I watch it. Why not?
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Am I excited?
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: You know?
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: We'll talk about it. I have a talk show to
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: do every day, so I'll talk about it. Let's not
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: kidd ourselves though. The Olympics are like the bacon cheeseburger
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: would be the Olympics very popular burger the WBC.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: That would be a.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: Plant based meat burger, no toppings on, just wrapped in
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: plain paper, wrapped in plane paper. That's it now, Page two.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: So on the other side of the aisle, this is
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: not a bipartisan issue. On the other side of the aisle,
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: we had a not a star but a guy that's
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: been in some big games because he happened to be
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: riding the coat tails of the team in LA.
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: But we're talking.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: About Keith k Hernandez, so very popular with the Dodger fans.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: They love this guy. So he was asked about what
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: the World Baseball Classic means a Dodger utility guy's a
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: backup on the Dodgers. Key k A Hernandez, who is
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: part of Puerto Rico's team. Kind of more than that
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: in a minute, and he opened up about the tournament
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: and it's important to said quote, I've played in five
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: World Series and I don't know if it's because of
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: what's across my chest.
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: Which would be Puerto Rico, but the.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: Classic feels above that. Hernandez said close quote all right, question,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: if you're a Dodgers fan, are you annoyed that Keith
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: k Hernandez is saying that the World Baseball Classic is
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: more meaningful than the Fall Classic, where the Dodgers are
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: one of the last two World Series. So I know
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: some people out there trying to work Dodger fans into
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: a ladder. I don't think this as much. I'm not
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: worked up into anything here. I'm not annoyed, not even
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: a little bit. If you dep code the messaging here,
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: Key ky Hernandez is playing to the crowd.
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: He's playing the crowd.
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: He knows the international audience eats this stuff up. Romanticizing
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: what is a relatively new shiny toy, the World Baseball Classic.
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: It's shorter, it's louder at times, and it's certainly fresher.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: It's kind of like summer camp. You show up, you
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: wave the flag, everybody sings Kumbaya, you rowse some marshmallows,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: and then you go home. Now that's it. Let's not
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: get too carried away here, comparing the World Baseball Classic
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: to the World Series. Right side by side, have the
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: World Series on one side, you have the World Baseball Classic.
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: On the other.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: It's like comparing the ancient Pyramids to a cookie cutter stucko.
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: Home at the end of a cul de sac.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: No one would say, well, that's stuck go home in
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: the cul de sac.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: That's where it's at.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: No one has history carved in stone, literally, and the
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: other has a very expensive hoa and some really annoying
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: people that force you to change the outside of your house.
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: Because there are a bunch of schmucks.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: Now, my favorite part is that keyk who's braggadocious about
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: how great the World Baseball Classic is in comparison to
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: the World Series. He's not even playing. He had snap
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: crackle Poppy tore elbow ligaments and tendons and all that
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: elbow got all torn up. He had surgeries out till
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: mid season for the Dodgers. So he's sitting there watching
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: the World Baseball Classic the same way that you and
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: I would be watching. And it is also fun to
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: point out that while Key k Hernandez has the reputation
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: of being mister October, mister October, the modern day clutch player,
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: this is more and more a man who shot liberty
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: valance situation, when the legend becomes the fact, you print
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: the legend because the reality is that in the World Series,
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: Key ky Hernandez last year batted under two hundred in
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: his career in five World Series. Kei k hern Andz
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: in the Fall Classic is a career two to two hitter.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: He's right at the Mendoza ligne in the World Series. Now,
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: he has had some big hits in other rounds of
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: the playoffs, and he's even had a few in the
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: World Series, but overall his full body of work. Kei
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: ky Hernandez is batting two to two in the World Series.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: Put that in your pipe and smoking now. Final point elsewhere,
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Cy Young winner Terry scougl who pitched over the weekend,
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: more on that pitching the World Baseball Classic. More than
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: that in a minute, But he also revealed the ace
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: of Motown. The ace of Motown, Terrek schoub Will revealed
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: the Tigers never ever made him a long term offer
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: in the offseason. There were stories about would there be
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: a deal done, would schoolbl sign an extension to stay
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: in Detroit? And they never made an offer.
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: That's what he said over the weekend.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: And then there won't be an offer until the end
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: of the season, the Cy Young pitcher said when he
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: could potentially become a free agent, he said, quote, there
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: is no offer and there won't be an offer, schoobl
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: said until the end of the season. My focus is
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: on playing baseball and winning this year. Schooble grumbled to
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: a gaggle of reporters there. He says, I'll deal with
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: the contract stuff at the end of the year and
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: then we'll kind of see and that's fine.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: It's their decision.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: All right, question, does Trek Schooble actually want to be
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: in Detroit and does Detroit want him? Or is he
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: halfway out.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: The door already?
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: Is this just a FATA complee that when we get
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: to the Midsummer trade deadline he's gone? All right, so
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: spare me the violin music?
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: Is schoopbl not emotional? Not emotional about Detroit?
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: Now?
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: My word for this, and I would say it's on
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: both sides, is indifference. In difference, the Tigers are owned
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: by old family money. The pizza pizza, pizza guys long gone.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: The family runs the Tigers, and that money, if they
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: don't spend it on Schooble, they can spend it on
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: private jets and third and fourth homes, vacation homes and
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: things like that. And so they're in an interesting situation
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: to trade because they're supposed to be one of the
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: better teams.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: In the American League this year than Tigers.
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: They were in the playoffs last year.
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: We saw what they did a year ago.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: So if you're in contention, you cannot trade schoob then
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: you end up like the Angels with Otani, although they
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: were not really in contention that year.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: They were like a.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: Faux contender, and the Angels had offers for Otani and
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: didn't trade him.
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: What happened to him?
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: I guess he signed with the Dodgers. I don't know
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: if they've had any success or not. I have to
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: go check on that. But that's the problem. So if
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: Detroit's good, you got to keep Schooble. If he's bad,
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: you get rid of him. But the chances are pretty
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: good that they'll be good. And I think he's indifference.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: If the Tigers are the highest bidder, which it doesn't
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: seem like they're interested in being. Suddenly then Schoobol comes out.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: I love mochad. Oh my god, Detroit Stall Pizza is
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: the greatest doll pizza in the world. Those coney dogs
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: to die for the whole thing, right Greek Town, come
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: on and right now though he's at the twenty six
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: mile mark of the marathon, the twenty six mile mark
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: of the marathon, two tenths of a mile left until
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: he runs straight in to a giant pit of money
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: like think Fort Knox, the vault at Fort Knox, And
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: when he gets there, he's going burger king baby and
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: have it your way and Schoobl's ordering the whopper with
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: extra zeros because he's gonna get a whopper now, believe
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: just starting pitching wise, the Philadelphia Phillies Zach Wheeler, of
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: all people, has the highest average annual value of their
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: contract at forty two million a year.
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: For Zach A.
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: Wheeler, Oh my god, SCHOOLBL is gonna get at least
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: forty five million a year. He's looking at something like
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: five years, two hundred and twenty five million.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: That's like the starting point for a school BL.
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: Now, as far as the I'm focusing on baseball, that
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: is humbuggery. Yeah, just like me, I'm focusing on the
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: talk show. If management wants to give me a new
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: contract and pay me a lot more money and give
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: me a helicopter, I'm good. I'm in okay. I can
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: multi task. I can do the talk show and I
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: can sign the docu sign and get the contract.
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: I'm good to go.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: I'm good to go. Right, that's it, good to go.
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: So I was always say, oh, I'm focused on baseball.
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: If Detroit right now put an offer of six years

• 31:31
  Speaker 4: on we'll eating his oranges in with the Beastie Boys.
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: Another dimension, another dimension. Ste Just because the oranges doesn't
• 31:38
  Speaker 4: mean they can't count as breakfast, clutch or dinner. Okay,
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: if you eat them their food.
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: Fair that's a fair point. That's a fair point. Yeah,
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: But just think in James's head, he's out there tearing
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: up the dance floor because he's only eating a couple
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: of oranges, So in his head he's beating the system.

• 32:13
  Speaker 4: kind of got a little you know, a little little
• 32:14
  Speaker 4: little Randy.
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: When when hollering James is awake, he's very much like
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: many other people when he's sleeping. That's where he really
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: bends time.
• 32:25
  Speaker 4: When you're trying to present yourself as credible. Would you

• 34:46
  Speaker 1: you know, as long as I have my friends, that's
