Shane Baz gets no run support as O's fall to Rays in series finale · Birdland Territory

• 0:06
  Speaker 1: Sunday afternoon in Baltimore, the Oriols ended a ten game
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: stretch of games against the two best teams not just
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: in their division, but in the American League. The Rays,
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: the Yankees, and the Rays. They played for the last
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: ten games. They lose Sunday against the Rays three to one,
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: taping the show after that game five and five stretch
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: in that ten game run, and now sixty three and
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: sixty eight for the season ed Welcome into Berdland territory
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: with Steve Maluski, Brad Brock, Tim Barbelace. This is how
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: mediocre the American League is.
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: Everybody.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: At the start of this ten game stretch, the Oriols
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: were two out for the third wild card, trailing five teams,
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: and so as of this morning, before this loss, they
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: were one game out trailing three teams in going five
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: and four. So you don't have to win a lot
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: of games to gain ground in this media or race,
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: but they did lose ten games off the calendar. How
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: do you guys size up the whole stretch of the
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: last ten games.
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think kind of going into it, you were
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: hoping for six and four, and especially when they win
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: the first three games of the ten, you're thinking, man,
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: maybe if they go seven and three or something like that.
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: But the five and five, I think you're still above water.
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: You're still in the race, and you didn't go three
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: and seven, you didn't go two and eight, So I
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: think you kind of take the five and five. Yes,
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: I think it's a little disappointing when you look at
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: the winning the first three and then you finish kind
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: of two and five in the last seven. But you
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: know what, against the best teams in the American League
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: five hundred, you're probably taken.
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: You got to get your wins against everybody else.
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: So that's kind of the way I look at it.
• 1:44
  Speaker 5: It's sort of just been like the season, right, this
• 1:47
  Speaker 5: roller coaster ride, and I think heading into this ten
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: game stretch, I think you would take five and five
• 1:54
  Speaker 5: going against two of the better teams in the American League.
• 1:57
  Speaker 6: In the American League.
• 1:58
  Speaker 5: But Brad, like you said, you know, expectations kind of
• 2:01
  Speaker 5: changed and they ebb and flow throughout the season. So
• 2:04
  Speaker 5: when you take the first three of the ten, yeah,
• 2:07
  Speaker 5: you're getting greety and you're thinking, oh, it's got to
• 2:09
  Speaker 5: be six wins at a minimum. Maybe you can go
• 2:11
  Speaker 5: seven and three and really shock everybody. But it's just
• 2:15
  Speaker 5: a lot of inconsistencies. And right now, you know, the
• 2:18
  Speaker 5: O's kind of owned the Rays and the Yankees have
• 2:21
  Speaker 5: kind of owned the Orioles, and it's just it ends
• 2:24
  Speaker 5: up being a wash.
• 2:25
  Speaker 6: It ends up being a five and five stretch.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: So today the storyline was familiar. Unfortunately for Shane Boz
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: who has luck this year, it's just all bad. And
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: today he's pitching a gem nothing, nothing to the six
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: two outs, nobody on. He's rolling through six scoreless. When
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: that ground balls hit to the left of Jackson Holiday
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: was hit one hundred and eight, so yeah, that's some
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: pace on it.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: It looked at a boll. Jackson didn't get it.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: That led to three runs being scored, and the Orioles
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: on a day they get two hitch loose three to one.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: I say that was not routine. It was a little
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: north of routine. But what did not take an exceptional play.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: I don't think they're going to score an air obviously,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: then Jackson's gonna probably tell us he should have had
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: that ball.
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that's kind of what it comes down to.
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: It wasn't the easiest play, but you think a normal
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: major or I would say, like above average major league infielders,
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: they make that play, and I think Jackson would say
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: he probably should have had it.
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: But at the end of the day, when you're.
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: Pitching, you're on the mound, it's one hit, you know,
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: and then you just got to get out of the inning.
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: It's a single into right field and not a huge deal.
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: Shane would probably say, he's just got to get out
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: of that inning, but unfortunately he just he's running into
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: bad luck. Like you said, Steve, It's just blows my mind.
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: It's one of those weird baseball anomalies where certain pitchers
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: just do not get run support. And today he pitched
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: well enough to get a win and they didn't score
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: a run for him. And it's just kind of been
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: the stretch he's had all year. The fact that he's
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: four and fourteen on the season with how well he's
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: been pitching just doesn't make any sense to me. And
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: it's just kind of one of those weird baseball stats
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: that I feel like happens to at least somebody on
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: a team every single year, and Shane Boz it just
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: happens to be him this year.
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: It's like such an extreme guys, you know next year
• 4:13
  Speaker 5: he's due for so much run support, right, people has
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: to swing so bad in the right direction in twenty
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: twenty seven for Shane Boz, but Madison, they kept flashing
• 4:24
  Speaker 5: so many different graphics today when it comes to Shane
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: Boz and his outings, and I was shocked by.
• 4:29
  Speaker 6: All of them.
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: In his last twelve starts, the Orioles have given them
• 4:33
  Speaker 5: fifteen runs of support and the one that really jumped
• 4:37
  Speaker 5: out to me, guys, they're two and nine when Shane
• 4:43
  Speaker 5: Boz has a quality start two and nine, there's thirty
• 4:47
  Speaker 5: one and nine when anyone else has a quality start
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: on this staff.
• 4:50
  Speaker 6: So it's bizarre.
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: You know, he's given up the most unearned runs on
• 4:54
  Speaker 5: the team, but he's been a bulldog and he's really
• 4:58
  Speaker 5: I don't think he's really had it affect him in
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: a negative way because he still goes out there every fifth,
• 5:04
  Speaker 5: sixth day and you know what you're getting out of him.
• 5:08
  Speaker 5: He's a bulldog and he gets gets you deep in games.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: No, I think he's a real pro. He had that
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: one jam look bad for him. He gets a double play,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: rolls that and just has never said one discouraging word
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: about the clubhouse the offense, and it wouldn't get him anywhere.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: It's a team game there there sometime along the wayne
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: in his career, maybe not this year, he's gonna give
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: up six and they're gonna score eight. You know, that's
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: that's gonna happen too. But Brad, what is what do
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: you think is the mindset of Boz when this lack
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: of offense keeps happening.
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I think it's a it's a start
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: to start thing. But I think in the back of
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: his mind he probably is thinking, I got to go
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: out there and give up no runs.
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: You know, that's the best way.
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: To possibly get a win is give up none and
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: hopefully we score one and I'll have a shot at
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: a win. But I really like to comment Jim Palmer
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: me today. He just said, you know, it's not really
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: working out for Shane this year, but pitching in these
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: tight games like he has all year long is going
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: to really help him further on down his career road.
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: And I think pitching in these types of games really
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: helps you win.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: You need to have a big start in a close game,
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: two to one game, three to two game. He's made
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: pitches like this all season long, where the offense hasn't
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: been scoring, he's had to keep the other teams offense down,
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: so unfortunately, I mean, who knows, maybe the next month
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: get he gets on a roll here and the offense
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: scores some runs. His overall record is not going to
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: look great, but I think moving forward into next year
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: and the seasons after that, he's going to look back
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: at this season and really think about all the big
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: time pitches he's had to make throughout the year, and
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: I think it's only going to help him be a
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: better pitcher further on down the road.
• 6:46
  Speaker 5: No, I completely agree where it's just every single inning
• 6:50
  Speaker 5: he's in, it's high leverage because the game is just
• 6:53
  Speaker 5: up for perhaps because he's not given up much, especially
• 6:58
  Speaker 5: over this last seventeen eighteen start stretch, and obviously the
• 7:03
  Speaker 5: Orioles just haven't been scoring in many runs. It's a
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: great point by Jim Palmer, you know, just he will
• 7:11
  Speaker 5: be better having gone through this.
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this guy was back today. We'll touch on it
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: a little later in the show, The Return of the Mountain.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: Felix Bautista pitched at double A today. We'll tell you
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: more about that. It didn't go great, but he was
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: back in the game. That was the most important thing,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: and he was healthy and throwing for double a chesapeak.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: Today we'll touch on that, and we got some offensive
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: stats to give you in a minute.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: And also I want.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: To tell you about the fact that the Orioles did
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: something for one hundred and twenty one straight games that
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: they did not do on Sunday against Tampa. Will note
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: that in a minute on Birdland Territory.
• 7:50
  Speaker 7: Hey, for those of you that are on your phone's
• 7:52

• 7:56
  Speaker 7: that it is treating you well. In summertime. You're feeling good, right, aj,
• 8:01

• 8:04

• 8:06

  Speaker 7: coverage barriers CEE mintmobile dot com.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: So the Oriols lose Sunday to Tampa Bay three to one,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: they go two and four. On the home stand, they
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: are sixty three and sixty eight for the season, thirty
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: one game to go. They would need to win nineteen
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: to have a winning season nineteen and twelve or better.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: The caveat here is they might not need that many
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: to get in the playoffs. That crazy it is in
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: American league where you may not have to have a
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: winning season to get in this year. But I teased
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: that stat guys. The Oriols going going into today had
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: gone one hundred and twenty one straight games, drawing at
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: least one walk since April sixth, and they did not
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: have a walk today. In this three to one loss.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: You only had two hits, which, by the way, Colton
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: Towser was two for three. Everybody else was over for
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: twenty seven in that strange including Pete Alonzo, who's fourteen
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: game hitting streak ended. But look at this that this
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: one is disappointing to me. Go back to that Tampa
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: Bay series at the trop they scored twenty six runs
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: in four games, eleven for thirty three runners in scoring position.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: Last six games Yankees and Rays, they scored fourteen runs
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: and they went two for twenty nine. Describes the Oriole
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: season in a nutshell. Ten games against good teams, great
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: for some of them and miserable for the rest, and
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: almost never a middle ground for these guys.
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's I think the most the most shocking
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: thing is that there isn't the middle ground ever. I
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: feel it's been extremes almost all year. It's been really
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: really good or really really poor, and it's just just
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: odd that they can't seem to like just keep the momentum,
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: like we've talked about at nauseam on this show is
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: just keeping the momentum going. It's just been really hard
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: for them to keep positive, you know, gameplay going throughout
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: the season, whether it was the pitching, whether it was
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: a hitting, they can't seem to line them up. And
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: then you look at this, I mean, twenty six runs
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: in those four games in Tampa and then eleven for
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: thirty three and then the two for twenty nine at home,
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: runners in scoring position. I mean, that's that's really tough
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: to win games when you're not getting runners in when
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: they're at second base, and that's I mean, why you
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: go to four or two and six or sorry, two
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: and four at home in this homestand and kind of
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: why they got that five and five record the last
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: ten games.
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it just perfectly illustrates why it's been
• 11:07
  Speaker 5: so difficult for this team to go on sustained runs
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: because they're just not able to have any type of consistency.
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: You know that they only have one win streak over
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: four games, and that was the seven game winning streak,
• 11:19
  Speaker 5: So they're gonna have to go on a run here
• 11:22
  Speaker 5: at some point to get into this final wildcard spot.
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: But it's just disappointing because I remember doing the show
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: last Sunday where the Orioles took the first three against
• 11:33
  Speaker 5: the Rays, and you're buying into this offense, and even
• 11:36
  Speaker 5: losing last Monday against the Rays, that the offense still
• 11:40
  Speaker 5: scored and you know, Cano gave it up late. But
• 11:43
  Speaker 5: I was buying the turnaround because it just seemed like,
• 11:46
  Speaker 5: for the first time in a while, there were multiple
• 11:49
  Speaker 5: guys going at the same time.
• 11:51
  Speaker 6: It wasn't just Pete, for example.
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: But it's just kind of reverted over the past handful
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: of games since that point. You know, it's been good
• 11:59
  Speaker 5: seeing Beavers swing it well. He had three straight games
• 12:02
  Speaker 5: with a home run, having that walk off. I mean,
• 12:05
  Speaker 5: he's mister walkoff guys, four walk offs already in his
• 12:08
  Speaker 5: young career. Sam had a big moment yesterday. But there's
• 12:14
  Speaker 5: gotta be more to the party. It can't just be
• 12:17
  Speaker 5: Pete Alonzo.
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: It was interesting Saturday night interviewing Abernas after the game,
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: and of course he batted with a man on what
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: this man on second for Dylan and no oubts.
• 12:34
  Speaker 6: Right, he was a leadoff hitter, yes, tent okay, yep.
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: So he says to him, you can bun him over,
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: but I trust you to hit away like he's you know,
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: you're you do what you want to do. I think
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: that's a lot of trust in the young player who
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: still is technically a rookie, and he's certainly swinging it
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: maybe by the way, which the Birdman territory bump for Dylan.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, coming about delay since we have on the show.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: Guy now can't get him out, especially in the clutch,
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: and I think that really bodes well for his future, don't.
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: You, guys.
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not predicting starting the eight hundred ops
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: all Star appearances, but I think he can be a
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: solid hitter. And if you're coming through in those spots,
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: I think eventually you're gonna start coming through in a
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: lot of spots throughout nine innings.
• 13:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think so.
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: I think it's it can only builde well for his
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: future and for his career when he's got all the
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: tools and if you can throw the clutch tool and
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: they're also I mean, you have a player that's like
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: he may, like you said, maybe not a superstar or
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: maybe not an All Star, but a very very consistent
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: major league player when you're getting runners in when they're
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: on second base, and I think he does a really
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: good job with that. And like we said, we've talked
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: about his defense, we've talked about his base running. Obviously
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: has the power, He's got it all there. And I
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: think you know that when you have the managers kind
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: of blessing, like he said, still in his rookie season,
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: that shows a lot. And I think that letting him
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: swing away there against one of the better relievers in
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: all the American League in the tenth inning on Saturday
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: shows a lot. And I think it shows that his
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: future is going to be right here in Birdland.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: Such a smart hitter.
• 14:05
  Speaker 6: And see we've said that this is someone that's still
• 14:07
  Speaker 6: a rookie. He hasn't played that many games.
• 14:10
  Speaker 5: Yeah, he hasn't played many games yet, and and to
• 14:15
  Speaker 5: have this many walk offs, and and look, he has
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: all the tools. He's a really athletic player, and when
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: he's going well, he's going to give you a professional
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: at bat. But you know, Craig albern has clearly has
• 14:27
  Speaker 5: the trust of him. And I think he even said
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: during one of his walkoffs, slow heartbeat is what he
• 14:34
  Speaker 5: called Dylan Beavers.
• 14:35
  Speaker 6: And look, this.
• 14:37
  Speaker 5: Is kind of the land of opportunity in terms of
• 14:40
  Speaker 5: next year for this outfield, because there's probably not a
• 14:43
  Speaker 5: position group on this team that's more in flux. So
• 14:46
  Speaker 5: if you're Dylan Beavers, if you're anyone in that outfield,
• 14:49
  Speaker 5: you have a nice thirty game runway here where you
• 14:52
  Speaker 5: can make an impression on Michael ISAs in this front
• 14:54
  Speaker 5: office and say, hey, you know I deserve to be
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: in the opening day starting lineup in this outfield in
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: twenty twenty seven.
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Beavers is such a smart player he's talking about
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: you know, I wanted him to bring the ball up,
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: but I knew I had to react to the change up,
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: so I was gonna make sure he didn't get a
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: high fastball by me, and I could also adjust to
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: the change up, which he did get a change up.
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: I believe that bitch he drilled off the wall to
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: win the game. So he's such a cerebral player. I
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: saw that on the farm man deep thinker. Somehow he's
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: able to take all that deep thinking and turn it
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: into a play where he can hit ninety six. You know,
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: he don't have a lot of time to think there
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: when that's happening. And I like what Dustin Lynn said
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: about today the Oriols hitting coach.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: He said he's got a high floor.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: By that, he said, this a really good contact hitter,
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: really good strike zone. In other words, the bottom he
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: could be is here, but the top could be up here.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: And you know, we know he's going to be certain
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: level good. We're just waiting to see what level that
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: finds itself at.
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and I think that's a great way to describe him.
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: I think he, like you said, his cerebral hitter, but
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: he's got the tools to back up his approach. And
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: I think that's when you know, very good players come
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: out or guys that have the thinking but can I mean,
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: like you said, you're trying to react to ninety seven
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: at the top of the zone, but you're able to
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: drop the head on the change up.
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: But there's only.
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: Certain players that have the tools that are able to
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: do that. He's one of those players, and I think
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: the thinking side of things can help take him to
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: that next level.
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 16:26
  Speaker 5: I really like that quote from Dustin Lynn because I
• 16:29
  Speaker 5: think when you look at Beaver's and again this is
• 16:32
  Speaker 5: still a small sample size for his MLB career, he
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: definitely has the makings of a player that can last
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: in this league. Now is he going to be a superstar.
• 16:42
  Speaker 5: We shall see. I don't think we know Dylan Beaver's
• 16:45
  Speaker 5: ceiling at this point, and you know he's continuing to
• 16:49
  Speaker 5: grow as a major league player. But I am with
• 16:51
  Speaker 5: Dustin Lynn. I think he does have a high floor
• 16:55
  Speaker 5: in this in MLB.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, for me, Dylan defense could use some improvement.
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: He might agree with us.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: Even on the farm, the reports I got and what
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: little I saw was better than what we've seen in
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: the major league. So I'm not sure what drills or
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: work or facility he can go to the winner. We
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: hear oftentimes about hitting and bat speed and all that,
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: But what helps you get better on d better jumps,
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: better read so forth. That's something I think Dylan, and
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: he being such a driven kid, no doubt we'll look
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: at that too and say, maybe that is something I
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: got to spend some time on this winner. So there's
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: more to come in his scheme, I think, is what
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: we're all saying. Yeah, and that's kind of exciting for
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: him and the Orioles. So there are sixty three and
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: sixty eight after the loss today, when we come back,
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: let's talk about Samuel Basil. A couple of guns to
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: second base, today man that hose was good. And Felix Bautista,
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: he's got a pretty good arm on his own, and
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: he pitched.
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: Today a little bit in DOUBLEA.
• 17:57

• 19:02
  Speaker 1: Well, I was in really Friday to do some interviews.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: I wasn't there today, but the big man was. Felix
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: Bautista got to start in the SpongeBob jersey in the
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: miners today for the double A Chesapeake Bay Sox as
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: they played a really good Richmond Flying Squirrels team. His
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: final line, You're not gonna like it birdland the third
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: of an inning, one hit, three runs, three walks, no strikeouts.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: He gave up two steals as well when he was
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: on the mound. Twenty two pitches, just ten strikes and so, guys,
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: the results weren't great. The fact he was pitching for
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: the first time since July twentieth, twenty twenty five was
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: And I just got to believe the Orioles after two
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: major surgeries Tommy John and then last August. Thing now
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: was Labram. This is gonna be ultra conservative.
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: They can't.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: They just can't rush this guy. He means too much
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: in their future. After all this work to get to
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: this point. You don't just bliss him through the final
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: five or ten yards.
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: No, definitely not. And I think the biggest thing is
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: just he's healthy. As long as he's out there, he's pitching,
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: results mean absolutely nothing, and it's it's tough when you're
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: trying to come back to the major leagues. You're rehabbing,
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: and you're in the minor leagues and they know the guy.
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: He's on the major league roster and he's just rehabbing,
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: and things are just different when you're out there. I've
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: always seen guys go out and just that it just
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: doesn't look right, and then they get called up and
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: all of a sudden, they're back to the guy you
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: see on TV. So it's a weird thing. But my
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: biggest thing is just how he feels tomorrow. And I
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: think that's all the ools are worried about it. Obviously,
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: you want to see him throw a little bit more strikes,
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: but he's back out on a mound pitching and throwing.
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: Steve said ninety five ninety seven, that's to me, that's
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: what you want to see. And just see how he
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: feels the day after he pitches. That's the biggest thing.
• 20:44
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I just think expectations need to be tempered when
• 20:47
  Speaker 5: it comes to Felix Batista. I don't think it's fair
• 20:50
  Speaker 5: to him, you know, to expect Peak Mountain coming off
• 20:54
  Speaker 5: those type of third uries. And I think I said
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: this last episode guys, when he went that torn labram
• 21:01
  Speaker 5: and rotator cuff surgery, I thought he was done. I
• 21:05
  Speaker 5: did not expect to see Felix Baaltist to pitch again.
• 21:08
  Speaker 6: So I think he deserves so much credit.
• 21:11
  Speaker 5: I think the Orioles medical staff, everyone involved with his
• 21:15
  Speaker 5: rehab deserves a ton of credit. The fact that he
• 21:18
  Speaker 5: is even pitching blows me away. And I know that.
• 21:22
  Speaker 5: I think he told the beat guys, Steve, you know
• 21:25
  Speaker 5: he's gonna move to Norfolk, I believe, on Tuesday.
• 21:28
  Speaker 6: But this is gonna be a progression.
• 21:31
  Speaker 5: You know, this isn't gonna be a situation where Felix
• 21:34
  Speaker 5: is getting called up next week. You know, it's it's
• 21:37
  Speaker 5: gonna be a process to get him back right.
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: Norfolk is playing at Durham starting Tuesday night, so he'll
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: make that trip a little south at Durham Athletic Park
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: and pitch there. Speaking of my minor leaguers, I love
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: I gotta give you this stat. Look at this. Since
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: June nineteenth, w A Chesapeake has the best team ERA
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: all of Minor league baseball, and dating to the end
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: of July, their starters have a double A best two
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: fifty nine ERA more strikeouts than innings, and Friday, I
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: interviewed their three top one hundred pitchers.
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: That was really cool.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: I talked to Anthony Ions and Joseph Jerwan and Caden Hunter.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: These are three aces they've got down Bowie, They've got guy.
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: They got guy named Sebastian Gongora pitch well today who
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: no one ever talks about, is not in the top thirty.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: A lefty they got, so they they got a stud rotation.
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: It's fun to watch. They're probably gonna come up a
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: little bit short of the playoffs, but those guys are
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: pushing each.
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: Other, Brad.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: When I talk to them, they're they're really a team
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: within a team and growing and developing together.
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: No, I think it's great having those three guys, like
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: you said, and then having the other guys trying to
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: compete with them. It's it creates healthy competition between guys
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: on the team, and when you're in the minor leagues,
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: it's it's kind of hard to understand that when you
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: get to the big leagues, you're you're not your own entity.
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: You're still with but you still have your career that
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: gets kind of brought to the forefront once you're in
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: the major leagues. But it's great having guys that you
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: play with that are major league quality players and you
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: get to see on a daily basis and you're pushing
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: each other to put up good results, and I think
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: that can only help these guys get better. When I
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: was coming up in the minor leagues, I think we
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: had I want to say it was twenty or twenty
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: one guys from my low A team made it to
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: the major leagues at some point. And when you're playing
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: around that much talent on an everyday basis, it really
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: pushes you to want to be considered one of those guys.
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: And I think when you have three guys in a
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: rotation like that, it's kind of like, Okay, you did
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: this yesterday, I'm going to go out there tomorrow and
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: do better, and that's healthy. I think it's great to
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: have that, and I think those guys can only push
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: each other to get better.
• 23:43
  Speaker 6: It's exciting.
• 23:44
  Speaker 5: You know, we've been talking about just how this farm
• 23:47
  Speaker 5: system is really jumped up, you know, Baseball America had
• 23:49
  Speaker 5: them fifteenth and now they're fifth in the span of
• 23:52
  Speaker 5: a month, you know, just the influx of talent through
• 23:56
  Speaker 5: the draft obviously at the trade deadline, and Steve had
• 24:00
  Speaker 5: a chance to talk to Anthony Iinson immediately the day
• 24:04
  Speaker 5: after his last.
• 24:05
  Speaker 6: Start where he went seven innings.
• 24:06
  Speaker 5: It was the first time in his professional career up
• 24:09
  Speaker 5: until this point that he completed six innings. He completed seven,
• 24:13
  Speaker 5: and just what a great kid, like, what a great guy.
• 24:17
  Speaker 6: You know.
• 24:17
  Speaker 5: We asked him about what is it like having that
• 24:19
  Speaker 5: type of start, and he was saying, look, we didn't
• 24:23
  Speaker 5: win the game, so really I don't even view it
• 24:25
  Speaker 5: that way.
• 24:25
  Speaker 6: It just gave all the right answers.
• 24:28
  Speaker 5: And I'm sure the others Steve really any of the
• 24:31
  Speaker 5: times that were at Chesapeake, can we interview these guys.
• 24:35
  Speaker 5: They're all just really, really good dudes. But it's a
• 24:38
  Speaker 5: very talented system right now, particularly with the arms.
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: They pitched three knights in a row, these three aces,
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: if you will, I'm kind of nominating him. Is that
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: Joe wat Tuesday night gives up one run, Hunter, Wednesday
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: night gives up one run, Ions and Thursday night gives
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: up one run.
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: They were really good.
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: Three knights in a row, and that's I guess they're
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: lined up to pitch back to back to back. Here
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: final few weeks for the Bassics, Let's talk about Samuel
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: Basio gunning out runners at second Next.
• 25:12
  Speaker 9: Big morning show Vinnie and Haiti three Deep live on
• 25:17
  Speaker 9: YouTube Monday through Friday six till six, Search one oh
• 25:20
  Speaker 9: five seven Fan Baltimore and never miss a moment of
• 25:23
  Speaker 9: coverage on the teams you love.
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: Give somemorial credit here player development. That was telling me
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: for years, guys, not days or months, but years, Samuel
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: Basio will catch in the big leagues, while I had
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: scouts from around baseball telling me he would not. He's
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: too big. It's not gonna work out for him catching
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: in the big leagues. Pop time per stat gass Pasio's
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: at one point nine to two, Rutchman's at one point
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: nine to five, Nirvaia's is one point nine seven. And
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: we saw that on display today.
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: It looked good.
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean he's got an absolute cannon back there,
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: and I think that there's nothing you love more as
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: a pitcher and basically not having a worry about the
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: guy at first base because you know you have a
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: catcher that could throw him out at second, so you
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: don't have to be as we know Shane boz Is,
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: he's a little deliberate to the plate, so he's not
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: the quickest. And having Pasada back there, knowing he's got
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: a canon, gives you a little bit of you know,
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: in the back of your mind. Okay, I don't have
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: to be super quick to the plate. I can really
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: stay in my mechanics and worry about the pitch I'm
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: trying to make.
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: And Sammy just does a great job.
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: I feel like we've talked about this before, but I
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: just feel like he is he does.
• 26:31
  Speaker 4: Not look like a rookie anymore behind the plate.
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: He really controls the game. He's got the pitcher's emotions
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: under control. He calls a great game. And then when
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: you throw guys out like he did today, your pitchers
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: absolutely love throwing to you. So it's a great, great
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: thing to see and great to see him back healthy
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: throwing guys out behind the plate.
• 26:50
  Speaker 5: And the second one was to strike him out, throw
• 26:52
  Speaker 5: him out, so to get a double play there, that's massive,
• 26:55
  Speaker 5: you know, helping to keep you in the game.
• 26:58
  Speaker 6: And I always.
• 27:03
  Speaker 5: Back to Trevor Rodgers guys like he just opes about
• 27:06
  Speaker 5: talking pitching two Stamwell Bisio and his era pitching sam
• 27:10
  Speaker 5: compared to everyone else is night and day. And also
• 27:14
  Speaker 5: we got to give him a hat tip. This is
• 27:16
  Speaker 5: someone that does not shrink in big time moments. And
• 27:19
  Speaker 5: obviously he was inserted as a pinch hitter on Saturday,
• 27:23
  Speaker 5: hit that huge two run homer to tie the ballgame.
• 27:27
  Speaker 5: Guys in high leverage spots this year, Samuel Basillo is
• 27:31
  Speaker 5: hitting three seventeen. He's got a nine to thirty six
• 27:34
  Speaker 5: OPS in high leverage situations. So the bigger the moment,
• 27:39
  Speaker 5: the brighter he shined.
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: And Matson put up a stat today well over nine
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: hundred OPS in the Ale East. Yeah, a lot of
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: those pitchers.
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: And the other thing I'll say today about the caught stealing,
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: the pitcher's got to give him.
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: A chance and they and they did. Yeah, Tampa Bay.
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: Is first in the American League in steals. This is
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: a team that's good at it knows how to do
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: it succeeds a lot, and he got him twice today.
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: It goes back to what Adlee told me earlier in
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: the year. And I'm not sure if there's apply to
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: sand probably does. Adley was really working hard at throwing
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: right to the bag because he skipped a lot of throws,
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: remember early And I asked him, are.
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: You doing that on purposes?
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: There's some analytics, it says, balance it maybe, and he
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: goes no, He goes, I'm trying to if I air
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: or want to air low rather than high, we got
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: a better chance than way up here.
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: Bring the tag down and sometimes you come up short.
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: But sometimes you throw right to the bag like he
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: did today.
• 28:34
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, And I think a lot of times too, when
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: if you're going for accuracy more than arm strength, I
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: feel like aker throws throw runners out more than the
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: strong throw. You know, you obviously can have both together
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: and the guys out by a mile. But a lot
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: of times if you're accurate and you give a nice
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: throw right to the bag, I feel like you give
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: a better chance there than rocketing in.
• 28:53
  Speaker 4: And like you said, see being high to the left
• 28:55
  Speaker 4: to the right. But if you're on the bag, I.
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: Just feel like your chances go up of getting a
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: good getting the base on round. I know that sounds
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: pretty simple, but it's a lot harder, especially behind the
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: play when you're trying to do everything so quick to
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: throw it to a perfect spot. But Sam, he's been
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: doing a great job. I feel like a lot of
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: his throws this year have been right on the money,
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: right on the back.
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 29:13
  Speaker 5: I mean, it's captain obvious, but you can have you
• 29:17
  Speaker 5: can have a gun, but if you're throwing it into
• 29:19
  Speaker 5: the outfield, what does it do?
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 29:21
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you definitely want the accurate throw for sure. I mean,
• 29:24
  Speaker 5: whether it's on a hop or ideally right in him,
• 29:27
  Speaker 5: it goes right into the tag. But Sam Stam's got
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: a gun and it's accurate.
• 29:32
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: So here we are again, Berdland five games under, still
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: within two games of the wild card.
• 29:39
  Speaker 6: At the end of the night.
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: Might be one and a half too, We're not sure,
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: pending the other results. We know the Oriels have lost.
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: It's crazy this road trip coming up certain Tuesday night
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: Saint Louis. They're at wildcard contender in the National League,
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: but Enancy Athletics in Colorado they're at the bottom of
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: baseball in their respective leagues. So there is a chance
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: to make some hay in nine games coming up.
• 30:00
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: I just wanted to give a shout out to Tyler O'Neill.
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: He's going back to play the team he came up
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: with the Cardinals. But his game last night was incredible.
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: That diving catch, save the running the ninth and he
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: threw out a base running a third base there for
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: the first out.
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: So you know, who knows.
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: Maybe going back sometimes when you go back to face
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: your former team, you can have a big series. But
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: he's been he's been doing a great job in the outfield,
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: and I feel like it's been overlooked a little bit
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: this year. But that game on Saturday, he almost single
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: handedly won with those couple of plays, and he's just
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: been regardless of how he's been hitting, I feel like
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: he's really put it all out there on the line
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: in the outfield and it's been I think a great,
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: you know, example to the younger players too that if
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: your best not there, you still have to play the
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: field and give your all and make these plays. And
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: he's had a lot of diving, really nice plays this season.
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: I just had to say that before the show.
• 30:43
  Speaker 6: Was no, absolutely, no, he I'm with you, Brad.
• 30:48
  Speaker 5: I mean that that catch in the ninth inning where
• 30:50
  Speaker 5: it looks like a bloop and that would have scored
• 30:52
  Speaker 5: a run, the Rays would have went ahead.
• 30:54
  Speaker 6: Absolutely he was massive for him. But guys, I feel
• 30:57
  Speaker 6: like we said this so many times this year.
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: They gotta go.
• 31:01
  Speaker 5: Six and three, like they gotta like a six and three,
• 31:04
  Speaker 5: a seven and two. This is all out in front
• 31:08
  Speaker 5: of them. The A's and the Rockies are two of
• 31:10
  Speaker 5: the worst teams in the majors. The Cardinals, they just
• 31:13
  Speaker 5: flew a four to one lead, I think, to the
• 31:15
  Speaker 5: Phillies in today's game. Yes, I understand they're fighting for
• 31:19
  Speaker 5: a wild card themselves, but it's not like they're a
• 31:22
  Speaker 5: team of world beaters that you gotta find a way
• 31:25
  Speaker 5: to at a minimum go six and three in this stretch.
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: Absolutely you do.
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: If the Oils can go seventeen and seven, which is
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: their record against the three Al division leaders, which is crazy,
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: you got to reel off some wins against teams at
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: art is good and this is the great chance to
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: do that. So fans keep subscribing, keep following us on
