Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: On a Tuesday in the good Land, buy or sell Tuesday.
- 0:03Speaker 2: I'm Drew. There's Billy Corning. Boys. How we feeling today?
- 0:07Speaker 2: We're feeling great? How are you any birthday hangover? Nothing
- 0:10Speaker 2: too much?
- 0:11Speaker 3: A little breakfast on the Blackstone for dinner never never
- 0:13Speaker 3: fires in too much of a hangover. However, I did
- 0:17Speaker 3: end up seeing that seventh inning last night, so that's
- 0:19Speaker 3: that's got me a little little donough.
- 0:21Speaker 1: So you were up late we were wondering what the
- 0:23Speaker 1: ven diagram of people who were watching the Brewers late
- 0:27Speaker 1: and people who were in the five o'clock club now
- 0:29Speaker 1: six o'clock club.
- 0:30Speaker 3: Yeah, And the thing was when Yellow hits on Homer,
- 0:33Speaker 3: that that bought me like two innings of of watch.
- 0:36Speaker 3: That that felt like to me, Oh, I was dialing
- 0:38Speaker 3: in when that ball goes over the wall. It was
- 0:41Speaker 3: like a shot a quick espresso and uh and and
- 0:45Speaker 3: Logan Henderson just sitting standing them up and sitting them
- 0:48Speaker 3: down for what eleven straight guys going through the sixth Like,
- 0:51Speaker 3: you know what, I can keep this iPad on in bed,
- 0:53Speaker 3: I can I can sit here and fall asleep to uh,
- 0:57Speaker 3: to the beautiful sounds of Brewers TV. And sure wish
- 1:00Speaker 3: I would have fallen asleep about five minutes before, because
- 1:03Speaker 3: then I sat up awake for another thirty minutes, sweating
- 1:06Speaker 3: profusely mad because if I feel like you have a
- 1:10Speaker 3: full bullpen, a full rested bullpen, you probably earn.
- 1:13Speaker 2: In that situation.
- 1:15Speaker 3: What a Yeah, seventeen games in seventeen days and Logan
- 1:19Speaker 3: Henderson shoving for those first six innings makes you go
- 1:22Speaker 3: and try to take one extra cookie out of that jar,
- 1:25Speaker 3: and then all of a sudden your tummy.
- 1:26Speaker 4: Felt that was it? Can I push it one more?
- 1:28Speaker 4: Can I get this car ten more miles past the needle?
- 1:31Speaker 4: Like that was tried? That so close? And that's the question.
- 1:34Speaker 4: That's always the risk you rute, because you always want
- 1:36Speaker 4: to say, well, this is unchured territory, but maybe we
- 1:38Speaker 4: don't know. Maybe he can do it, and we could
- 1:40Speaker 4: use it now, and let's see if he can do it.
- 1:41Speaker 4: And but Jackson Merrill's a good player, came close in
- 1:44Speaker 4: the fourth also, So once h Logan got through that one,
- 1:47Speaker 4: and I was like, all right, let's go, because you
- 1:49Speaker 4: know you get the lead now is Jord and I
- 1:51Speaker 4: were talking Billy about techun runs and like you didn't
- 1:53Speaker 4: get any but then you're like, well, he's getting him
- 1:56Speaker 4: out here, maybe we can make this thing stand up
- 2:00Speaker 4: and maybe we can do it.
- 2:01Speaker 2: And unfortunately couldn't get to that point.
- 2:03Speaker 4: And it was kind of a bummer in that regard,
- 2:06Speaker 4: but it was just enough to hold your interest, like
- 2:07Speaker 4: you said, Billy, and costs you some sleep.
- 2:09Speaker 2: Yeah, and finding a couple of guys in scoring position
- 2:13Speaker 2: at stranding him.
- 2:13Speaker 3: I know that's a broken record for the crew, but yeah,
- 2:16Speaker 3: just too many opportunities. And uh and and for all
- 2:20Speaker 3: the games s drew that the bullpen keeps you in
- 2:22Speaker 3: and allows the offense to come back. Uh, the pitching
- 2:25Speaker 3: kept you in this one, and then the offense just
- 2:27Speaker 3: never was able to never was able.
- 2:29Speaker 2: To wake up. Did they even get a hit after
- 2:31Speaker 2: the yell at Homer like that? You know, they had the.
- 2:34Speaker 3: Bowers double I believe in the third, and then they
- 2:36Speaker 3: had a single in the fifth, and but once that
- 2:38Speaker 3: Padres bullpen came in, it was kurt.
- 2:41Speaker 1: It was basically like, you know, they sent the minimum
- 2:43Speaker 1: to the plate, Yeah, you got it. Lockards gets thrown
- 2:45Speaker 1: out stealing to end the game.
- 2:47Speaker 3: And no, and and it is not always who you play,
- 2:51Speaker 3: it's when you play them. Right, We talk about that
- 2:53Speaker 3: a lot of times. The Padres now I think have
- 2:56Speaker 3: won the season series. I think they won the series
- 2:58Speaker 3: in Milwaukee earlier in the year. But now the Padres
- 3:02Speaker 3: have one, what twelve of sixteen, and that's when you
- 3:05Speaker 3: roll in. There would have been nice to maybe flip
- 3:08Speaker 3: these around and you could have caught the Dodgers rolling
- 3:11Speaker 3: in losing eight of nine. But now they get an
- 3:14Speaker 3: extra inning win and might be a totally different type
- 3:17Speaker 3: of West Coast trip, maybe a more normal West Coast
- 3:19Speaker 3: trip that we're used to.
- 3:20Speaker 1: On a buyer sell Tuesday, that was our question that
- 3:22Speaker 1: we were batting around like a ball of yarn between
- 3:25Speaker 1: two kittens, you buying or selling that the Brewers can
- 3:29Speaker 1: finish this seven game West Coast trip with a winning record,
- 3:34Speaker 1: because they got four against the Dodgers, and I'm saying
- 3:37Speaker 1: a split would be ideal to me, be happy with that.
- 3:41Speaker 1: But then to win four, you got to win the
- 3:42Speaker 1: next two against the Padres. Not saying it's out of
- 3:44Speaker 1: the reach, but it's a tall order.
- 3:47Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a tall task, man. And the twins.
- 3:50Speaker 3: You lose the first two or you lose the first
- 3:51Speaker 3: one over the weekend, and you win two that were
- 3:54Speaker 3: snatch away games, so you definitely could have lost both
- 3:57Speaker 3: of those over the weekend.
- 3:59Speaker 2: Also could have won because they were up four nothing
- 4:01Speaker 2: Friday in the opener.
- 4:02Speaker 3: Right, probably should should should have won the game you lost,
- 4:05Speaker 3: I drew, I would. I'd probably sell it at this
- 4:08Speaker 3: moment simply because I think the Padres are rolling right
- 4:12Speaker 3: now and you might be catching the Dodgers at one
- 4:13Speaker 3: of the worst times. You're also so thin at the
- 4:16Speaker 3: back end of this stretch. Uh, it's a terrible time
- 4:20Speaker 3: to have one of your biggest road trips of the year.
- 4:23Speaker 1: You hate to say it, but three and four and
- 4:25Speaker 1: seven games would be tolerable pages off.
- 4:28Speaker 2: Actually, actually, I would like sign me up for that
- 4:30Speaker 2: at this point.
- 4:31Speaker 1: Yeah, well, and I have roll the dice, or would
- 4:33Speaker 1: you take three and four three wins in the next
- 4:36Speaker 1: you know, I'm.
- 4:37Speaker 2: Saying, like, well, and and again, it's all about when
- 4:39Speaker 2: you get them. That'd be three and three over the
- 4:41Speaker 2: next Yeah.
- 4:42Speaker 3: I had told I had a buddy of mine lives
- 4:44Speaker 3: in San Diego, big Padres fan, hit me up Yesterday's like,
- 4:48Speaker 3: hey man, could you guys just give us like one
- 4:49Speaker 3: game this weekend. I'm like, listen, I'd give you all
- 4:52Speaker 3: three if it guaranteed you won that series against the Dodgers,
- 4:56Speaker 3: you win three or four in LA, you then win
- 4:59Speaker 3: the season series against LA out of the seven games
- 5:02Speaker 3: because they took two or three against you earlier in
- 5:04Speaker 3: the year. And if this thing ends up in a tie,
- 5:07Speaker 3: they get pushed down.
- 5:07Speaker 2: To the three seed.
- 5:08Speaker 3: If you're tied up for the two and playoff positioning
- 5:12Speaker 3: is right there up for grabs. That's the crazy thing
- 5:14Speaker 3: about this schedule. In the next week and a half,
- 5:15Speaker 3: the Brewers realistically could be playing for the tiebreaker against
- 5:18Speaker 3: the Dodgers this weekend, and then next weekend could be.
- 5:22Speaker 2: Playing for the tiebreaker against the.
- 5:23Speaker 3: Atlanta Braves, and the final game of that could be
- 5:26Speaker 3: in freaking Williamsport, Pennsylvania. They build out this schedule on
- 5:31Speaker 3: a kitchen counter, at least they used to in some
- 5:33Speaker 3: couple's kitchen, and you never know which four games are.
- 5:38Speaker 2: Going to be the tipping point ones. At the end
- 5:39Speaker 2: of September, there's no doubt.
- 5:41Speaker 1: And we mentioned in three weeks the Brewers start their
- 5:44Speaker 1: series tournament against the Cubs, when they play seven games
- 5:47Speaker 1: in ten days against the Cubs, and that will determine
- 5:51Speaker 1: likely that will go a long way to determining the
- 5:53Speaker 1: winner of the NL Central as that series. And Arma
- 5:57Speaker 1: is like, well, what's your comfort level and what's because
- 5:59Speaker 1: what is it today?
- 5:59Speaker 2: What's the lead? Five to five games?
- 6:01Speaker 1: Yep, yeah, it'd be nice to be five because if
- 6:04Speaker 1: you're gonna play seven games against the Cubs, like you
- 6:06Speaker 1: would expect, the worst you're gonna do is three and
- 6:08Speaker 1: four mm hmmm.
- 6:10Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 6:10Speaker 1: The worst you're gonna do is lose that three or
- 6:11Speaker 1: four or three yeah, in the realm, but then that's
- 6:14Speaker 1: hard to pick up games. So you lose one game
- 6:16Speaker 1: over seven. So that that's why the math is tough, man,
- 6:19Speaker 1: That's why five game lead. People are like, well, when
- 6:21Speaker 1: do you get nervous? Like, well, you can get nervous
- 6:23Speaker 1: at any time if you choose to, you can be
- 6:26Speaker 1: nervous all the time. Some of us are like that, yeah, well,
- 6:29Speaker 1: but there's a lot of ballgame left.
- 6:30Speaker 3: You got forty five some games left, you get you
- 6:32Speaker 3: got some you got plenty of time left.
- 6:34Speaker 2: That time to get hot and cold and hot again.
- 6:36Speaker 3: And the mitigating factor is that dude that's playing center field.
- 6:39Speaker 3: Because if you start drawing comparisons to different groups, because
- 6:42Speaker 3: like I said our friend tom On on Twitter said, Drew,
- 6:44Speaker 3: you remember the nineteen eighty three Brewers season first place
- 6:47Speaker 3: till August twenty sixth West Coast trip, September swoon and
- 6:50Speaker 3: they never recovered.
- 6:51Speaker 2: I fear this with this one.
- 6:53Speaker 3: You fear if you're looking at a five game lead
- 6:56Speaker 3: in the final month of the season. This little rivalry
- 6:59Speaker 3: between the Brewers and Cubs had that exact same lead
- 7:02Speaker 3: erased in the final month of the season in twenty
- 7:04Speaker 3: eighteen with an MVP season from a young outfielder for
- 7:09Speaker 3: the team chasing. And if that's going to be the
- 7:12Speaker 3: case and you see PCA roll off of September to remember,
- 7:16Speaker 3: like Yellichad and eighteen, you can very quickly erase that thing,
- 7:19Speaker 3: especially with those seven head to heads. That's the one
- 7:22Speaker 3: part that while Chicago has believed that they're in this thing,
- 7:25Speaker 3: and they are for a while, that's why they made
- 7:28Speaker 3: the moves they did at the deadline. Those seven games
- 7:30Speaker 3: were what we're giving you life. Whatever the lead was,
- 7:34Speaker 3: if you were on the North side, you could just
- 7:35Speaker 3: point to that week with the Brewers having a trip
- 7:38Speaker 3: to Cincinnati in between it and say we can make
- 7:41Speaker 3: it all up right there and then it's game on.
- 7:44Speaker 3: For the final three weeks. We've had two ten game
- 7:46Speaker 3: winning streaks. I feel pretty good about our chances, so
- 7:48Speaker 3: it's it is one thousand percent game on. And the
- 7:51Speaker 3: Braves have made this thing a really compelling race for
- 7:55Speaker 3: those top two seeds as well, because that's only a
- 7:56Speaker 3: three game difference. And the thing about it is, in
- 7:58Speaker 3: this run of division titles the Brewers have had, there
- 8:00Speaker 3: have been moments that they've had to hold teams off
- 8:02Speaker 3: through all of them, and then you have to get
- 8:04Speaker 3: through it, and it's always that Cup series that's usually
- 8:06Speaker 3: been the one that looms and then you see how
- 8:08Speaker 3: you can handle yourself.
- 8:09Speaker 2: And the Brewers have done well. But the difference I think.
- 8:12Speaker 4: This year because the year before, you know, last year
- 8:14Speaker 4: you had that really crazy run of wins, that that crazy,
- 8:18Speaker 4: crazy stretch. But this year the brew has been just
- 8:21Speaker 4: more consistent, winning, dominating the league, and they've been their
- 8:25Speaker 4: best through this amount of games that they've ever been.
- 8:27Speaker 4: So part of you is like, well, we've never played
- 8:30Speaker 4: this well in our history. Are franchised through this point
- 8:33Speaker 4: of the season, and it's been great, but you're sole
- 8:36Speaker 4: only five games up. I think that's the least the
- 8:38Speaker 4: way I think of it sometimes. But look, you put
- 8:40Speaker 4: yourself in the lead, you can. You give yourself the
- 8:43Speaker 4: position you can for that final month of the year,
- 8:45Speaker 4: and you hope to play your best ball as it comes.
- 8:47Speaker 4: But to Billy's point, I think the strength of the
- 8:51Speaker 4: Cubs has been how well they've been doing consistently through
- 8:54Speaker 4: this stretch, keeping the pressure on the Brewers as they've won,
- 8:58Speaker 4: and especially now they have this kind of superstar that
- 9:01Speaker 4: that's looming and that's kind of transcending a supernova moment.
- 9:05Speaker 4: If he has this MVP moment, could that be the
- 9:07Speaker 4: guy that puts you over the top.
- 9:09Speaker 2: It might be. Well, it will be a very interesting
- 9:11Speaker 2: end of the year.
- 9:11Speaker 4: So hope the Brewers can at least keep stacking wins
- 9:14Speaker 4: as much as they can and put themselves in good position.
- 9:16Speaker 2: It's gonna be tough to do.
- 9:17Speaker 1: This week eight seven, seven, seven, nine four one nine
- 9:19Speaker 1: seven three. Get you to the talking text on buying
- 9:21Speaker 1: and selling, and that's the buy and sellers. Can the
- 9:23Speaker 1: Brewers like, okay, with six games left on this week,
- 9:28Speaker 1: can they split them? Can they get to five hundred?
- 9:30Speaker 1: Is that your expectation? What is the baseline you're buying,
- 9:32Speaker 1: are selling.
- 9:32Speaker 3: I feel real good about these next two games, Drew, Like,
- 9:35Speaker 3: I mean, if I'm throwing, if I get to walk
- 9:38Speaker 3: up and throw Harrison in May, I'll feel pretty confident
- 9:42Speaker 3: in these games against the Padres, albeit they're white hot
- 9:45Speaker 3: walker Buehler, he used to be really, really good. Yeah,
- 9:48Speaker 3: But when when I'm throwing, Drowing and Gass are in
- 9:52Speaker 3: that law firm in the Dodgers series, I don't feel
- 9:55Speaker 3: all that spectacle.
- 9:57Speaker 1: Right like, I don't. I don't feel tremendous there at
- 10:00Speaker 1: the back end.
- 10:01Speaker 2: Basically, what you're saying is that you just follow Murph
- 10:03Speaker 2: win tonight.
- 10:04Speaker 3: Do worry about winning one tonight, win one and then
- 10:07Speaker 3: and then deal with that Dodgers one.
- 10:09Speaker 2: Behind you and win the next night. Now here's the
- 10:12Speaker 2: other thing.
- 10:12Speaker 1: And the Dodgers of the Great White Whale and the
- 10:14Speaker 1: Cubs are you know, the fly that buzzes around your
- 10:18Speaker 1: head and you swat at and trying to get rid
- 10:21Speaker 1: of it.
- 10:22Speaker 2: My thing with the Brewers is, then, you know, call
- 10:25Speaker 2: me skeptic.
- 10:26Speaker 1: They have They've been poised in the position of having
- 10:29Speaker 1: like the one of the best records in the league
- 10:31Speaker 1: throughout the season, best record in ball.
- 10:33Speaker 2: All that.
- 10:34Speaker 1: The Brewers. We focus so much on the Cubs and
- 10:37Speaker 1: the Dodgers. Tell me the Brewers wouldn't have their hands
- 10:39Speaker 1: full playing the Phillies in a series.
- 10:41Speaker 2: Oh for sure. The Braves, the.
- 10:44Speaker 1: I can see the Bruis and I can I can
- 10:46Speaker 1: say going in like the Brewers are capable of beating
- 10:49Speaker 1: any team they face in a playoff series, they could
- 10:51Speaker 1: also lose to anything they facing a playff.
- 10:53Speaker 3: Saters, Yeah, And I think that's the that's the problem
- 10:55Speaker 3: with the National League right Like you look at the
- 10:57Speaker 3: National League right now, everybody got better at the deadline,
- 11:01Speaker 3: maybe outside of the Braves. They they called on de
- 11:03Speaker 3: Grom and called on Schooble and they're like, no, okay,
- 11:07Speaker 3: we'll go with our horses, and and they though have
- 11:10Speaker 3: just had internal improvement. But I mean, if I'm lining
- 11:13Speaker 3: up and I have to take on the Astros in
- 11:15Speaker 3: the American League, I feel pretty damn confident I'm walking
- 11:18Speaker 3: through that one and four or a five gamer. There's
- 11:20Speaker 3: there's none of those squads on this side. And with
- 11:23Speaker 3: the with the types of payrolls that you have here
- 11:26Speaker 3: on the National League. Now, I don't even like face
- 11:28Speaker 3: in Arizona right now, for how well that they've played
- 11:30Speaker 3: as of late, and they're going to get Burns back.
- 11:32Speaker 2: I would assume that some particular.
- 11:33Speaker 1: You want to line up much as you like the Brewers,
- 11:36Speaker 1: you know with you know, ms May Harrison, you want
- 11:38Speaker 1: to line up against Wheelers, Sanchez and Lozardo and then
- 11:41Speaker 1: face in the seventh inning and a key situation have
- 11:45Speaker 1: faced Schwarbur and Harper.
- 11:46Speaker 2: I was going to say, Swarburn Harper coming right out,
- 11:48Speaker 2: I'm like, you know, I guess the buy is so important.
- 11:50Speaker 2: I mean, it really was.
- 11:52Speaker 1: You avoid that that chance is as I say, you
- 11:54Speaker 1: win the series, you don't play.
- 11:56Speaker 2: But if you're obsessing with the Cubs and Dodgers, I'll
- 12:00Speaker 2: introduce you to the Phillies and the Brave like the puppets.
- 12:03Speaker 3: Yeah, that's why there are legit five teams or four
- 12:07Speaker 3: or five teams that you're scoreboard watching right now, which
- 12:10Speaker 3: makes it very fun on the final end of the season,
- 12:13Speaker 3: right Like that is one deal where you get to
- 12:15Speaker 3: watch the entire finish of this National League Braves, Dodgers, Cubs, Phillies,
- 12:20Speaker 3: Padres and everybody in that mix to see who's.
- 12:24Speaker 2: Going to be able to chase them down.
- 12:25Speaker 3: Because you wouldn't have anticipated that the Dodgers had any
- 12:29Speaker 3: competition there in the NL E or NL West, and
- 12:32Speaker 3: they still don't, necessarily with a seven and a half
- 12:35Speaker 3: game lead with forty some games to play, they keep
- 12:38Speaker 3: sliding as they have over the last two weeks, and
- 12:42Speaker 3: one of these teams going to make that thing interesting.
- 12:44Speaker 2: San Diego is so fascinating.
- 12:46Speaker 3: At one point three weeks ago, people were talking about
- 12:49Speaker 3: them trading one of the premier players in the game,
- 12:53Speaker 3: who they traded the third overall prospect for one calendar
- 12:57Speaker 3: year ago.
- 12:58Speaker 2: They say, you know what, actually, to hell with that.
- 13:01Speaker 1: We're not gonna We're Mason miller, I got Manado making
- 13:06Speaker 1: three hundred million, Fernando Tatis has hit ten home runs
- 13:10Speaker 1: in two months after going two months without hitting one.
- 13:12Speaker 2: We're gonna take a run out. We're gonna take a
- 13:14Speaker 2: run at this thing.
- 13:15Speaker 3: And Feller pushed that right button, Drew and sometimes that
- 13:19Speaker 3: we've seen Diamondbacks a couple of years ago, Mets a
- 13:22Speaker 3: couple of years ago. It isn't the team that's been
- 13:24Speaker 3: the best one all year long, it's the team that's
- 13:26Speaker 3: the best one for the final three months.
- 13:28Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 13:28Speaker 4: In their game back of Arizona and Philly for a
- 13:30Speaker 4: wild card spot, so they have two chances there. So
- 13:32Speaker 4: they're San Diego's right, there no question. Johnny Cribbage on YouTube,
- 13:36Speaker 4: So what are we scared of every team? Well, I
- 13:38Speaker 4: don't know. I mean they all can be scary. I
- 13:41Speaker 4: think that's you're you're a realist. Yeah, I mean, there's
- 13:44Speaker 4: nothing gonna be easy when I like, I like the
- 13:47Speaker 4: healthy respect Drew, because that really is what it is.
- 13:49Speaker 2: It's it's staying. So you use one of Armin's favorite words,
- 13:52Speaker 2: stay in vigilant.
- 13:53Speaker 1: It's like, okay, so let's say the Brewers, uh, they
- 13:57Speaker 1: get that buy, they get one of the top two,
- 13:59Speaker 1: and then you know, the Dodgers lose and it's like,
- 14:02Speaker 1: oh right, the witch is dead and then you got
- 14:04Speaker 1: to face the Phillies.
- 14:05Speaker 2: Like nothing's gonna be easy. That's what I'm saying, is.
- 14:08Speaker 3: Like, there's no What Drew's also saying is there's no
- 14:10Speaker 3: Carolina Panthers coming around the corner.
- 14:12Speaker 2: There's no path, right.
- 14:13Speaker 3: There's there's not there's not a second year, second year
- 14:16Speaker 3: team where you're gonna be able to feast on Kerry
- 14:18Speaker 3: Collins when you're chanting we want Dallas in ninety six.
- 14:21Speaker 2: This isn't exactly the case. No consolation prize.
- 14:24Speaker 3: Yeah, the Dodgers get upset, you're still facing an absolute wagon.
- 14:28Speaker 3: It's where I still think one of my favorite questions.
- 14:30Speaker 3: And and we'll see how close it gets down the
- 14:33Speaker 3: stretch here and how much uh you know, maybe that
- 14:36Speaker 3: Chicago Green Bay game plays into it and the full
- 14:39Speaker 3: rivalry is on full display there in October? Would you
- 14:42Speaker 3: rather play the Dodgers in the seven game series or
- 14:44Speaker 3: the Cubs? Because if the Cubs have beaten the Dodgers
- 14:47Speaker 3: and they're rolling in feeling hot as all get out, man,
- 14:50Speaker 3: that's a confident butt. That's gonna be a that's gonna
- 14:53Speaker 3: be a great one to be able to see.
- 14:54Speaker 1: I want to picture Atto Tani or a PCA, they're
- 14:56Speaker 1: both MVP candidates.
- 14:59Speaker 3: It's a I'll pitch around PCA because then I don't
- 15:02Speaker 3: have to worry about freaking Freddy for the rest.
- 15:05Speaker 1: If you face the Braves, you gotta face Sale and
- 15:07Speaker 1: Lopez and like they they're good too.
- 15:09Speaker 3: Well, and Kunya and Matt Olsen, who's got like thirty
- 15:12Speaker 3: eight this year, good squads all over this.
- 15:15Speaker 2: It's ed l Abavy this year. It is no question.
- 15:17Speaker 2: So there's nothing easy, but it's not supposed to be easy.
- 15:20Speaker 2: I like that.
- 15:21Speaker 1: It wouldn't be fun if it was easy. It wouldn't
- 15:23Speaker 1: be as it wouldn't be as satisfying if it was
- 15:25Speaker 1: easy either, And we're going to go out here to
- 15:27Speaker 1: title hard. It was nothing easy about it, man, Katie's
- 15:30Speaker 1: foot was on the line or.
- 15:31Speaker 2: They'd have lost. Hey, man, it's it.
- 15:33Speaker 1: And that was our most recent foray all right, eight
- 15:36Speaker 1: seven seven, seven nine, here's a buyer sell for you.
- 15:41Speaker 1: The first episode of season four of ted Lasso dropped.
- 15:43Speaker 1: I'm hearing not much about it. They're going to drop
- 15:46Speaker 1: them weekly and weekly increments, and then when they get
- 15:49Speaker 1: to the end of the seven or eight series, you
- 15:52Speaker 1: can binge.
- 15:53Speaker 2: People will probably binge the whole thing.
- 15:54Speaker 1: Ted Lasso the first three seasons one of the great
- 15:57Speaker 1: sports uh dramedies trying comedies ever made. Sports content wise,
- 16:03Speaker 1: it's the top. It's up there with all the great movies.
- 16:06Speaker 1: It's a great series. But should they have buyer selling that,
- 16:10Speaker 1: They should have shut it down and not reconvened.
- 16:12Speaker 2: As somebody drew.
- 16:13Speaker 3: That just could not fathom in a world where all
- 16:16Speaker 3: you want to do is make more money. I could
- 16:19Speaker 3: not believe that they shut it down when they did.
- 16:21Speaker 3: They were at the peak of the power. It was
- 16:23Speaker 3: as hot as it possibly could have been. And they
- 16:25Speaker 3: took like a three year hiatus because Jason today just
- 16:28Speaker 3: didn't want to be in England anymore.
- 16:31Speaker 2: Yeah, right, like it didn't really want to go. I
- 16:34Speaker 2: thought it was over.
- 16:34Speaker 1: They had written the story arc that it was ending,
- 16:36Speaker 1: and that they've had a ball on it. And now
- 16:38Speaker 1: they're bringing him back and he's coaching a women's team,
- 16:40Speaker 1: which people soccer's already woke, and now he's coaching a
- 16:43Speaker 1: women's team.
- 16:43Speaker 2: What the hell? Man? Yeah, I don't care.
- 16:45Speaker 3: He could have coached a lacrosse team when it first
- 16:48Speaker 3: ended and I'd have been all in on it. Now
- 16:51Speaker 3: it's been on a site out of mind for too
- 16:52Speaker 3: long that I don't know that I'm going to be
- 16:54Speaker 3: able to get myself.
- 16:55Speaker 1: Almost like they're setting themselves up to disappoint undred percent.
- 16:59Speaker 4: That's all these things usually. I mean, listen, if the
- 17:01Speaker 4: cast and crew needed a job, is that bad? I say, Okay,
- 17:03Speaker 4: that's fine. But for the sake of the arts, have
- 17:05Speaker 4: you seen this a lot? Whereas some some series and
- 17:08Speaker 4: when they should and they don't, and then they try
- 17:10Speaker 4: an extra sequel and the sequel is never good, and
- 17:13Speaker 4: we're on toy Story five. It's okay, do it, but
- 17:16Speaker 4: it won't it won't be as good. People are gonna
- 17:18Speaker 4: might look at it like the Jordan Wizard's Ears and
- 17:20Speaker 4: do you want that? But then again, you know what,
- 17:23Speaker 4: some of the guys on the crew and some of
- 17:25Speaker 4: the actors and actresses might need jobs.
- 17:27Speaker 2: Who knows who might.
- 17:28Speaker 3: But it's not even like the full main cast, is it,
- 17:30Speaker 3: Like from what I know, that's.
- 17:32Speaker 1: A lot of them. Yeah, the main players are Achille back,
- 17:35Speaker 1: I believe.
- 17:36Speaker 4: So I don't know if this is a revival those
- 17:40Speaker 4: extra seasons, like some revivals work for shows like twenty three,
- 17:44Speaker 4: Like Fuller House was successful as to some people as
- 17:47Speaker 4: much as the well I think it was. I think
- 17:50Speaker 4: there was a consistent winner for a lot of people
- 17:52Speaker 4: like it. They got a lot of viewership, they had
- 17:54Speaker 4: a lot of seasons. It built a new audience. I'm
- 17:56Speaker 4: not saying it was good full House especially come on,
- 17:59Speaker 4: you know, I'm not gonna say.
- 18:00Speaker 2: I know it's not gonna beat TG.
- 18:01Speaker 4: I f full Out, but they got good numbers, so
- 18:04Speaker 4: I would consider that in the streaming world as success,
- 18:07Speaker 4: but there's a lot of those that I don't know
- 18:09Speaker 4: what Girl Meets World did compared to what but those revivals,
- 18:12Speaker 4: this is like an extra season. It's I don't know,
- 18:14Speaker 4: Jerry Steiffel famously, you know, they were number one when
- 18:16Speaker 4: they left, they said, I don't want to do anymore.
- 18:18Speaker 4: I want to leave when the show's on top. We
- 18:20Speaker 4: don't want to jump the shark. We don't want to go,
- 18:23Speaker 4: you know, the Happy Days, late Fonzie years. I think
- 18:26Speaker 4: they should have went in the Jacket movie, right.
- 18:31Speaker 3: Like That's Entourage is exactly the one that I'm thinking,
- 18:34Speaker 3: kind of in that same sphere. I know, HBO Apple
- 18:36Speaker 3: TV a little bit different, but it feels like a
- 18:38Speaker 3: movie would have played out perfectly to finish the story.
- 18:43Speaker 3: But that being said, I don't have Apple TV right now,
- 18:46Speaker 3: and I do have plans for once it's officially.
- 18:51Speaker 2: To find a Saturday and maybe watch it. But it'll
- 18:54Speaker 2: but the.
- 18:54Speaker 1: Tough thing is Drew, I might fire it up tonight
- 18:56Speaker 1: because I'll be asleep before the Brewers first bit.
- 18:58Speaker 2: Well that's it.
- 18:59Speaker 3: But that one thing is I love to binge that show. Yeah,
- 19:03Speaker 3: but it's gonna be tough for me now that it's
- 19:04Speaker 3: rolling into football season, because I'm gonna have sec Saturdays
- 19:07Speaker 3: to be in Big ten Saturdays to watch not free
- 19:10Speaker 3: time Badger post games. That's gonna be tough on Saturdays.
- 19:12Speaker 3: Obviously Sundays are completely washed. So Ted Lasso, you might
- 19:16Speaker 3: get relegated to h to do it.
- 19:18Speaker 1: In that window between like the window between the Packers'
- 19:21Speaker 1: final exhibition game in the first game and like around
- 19:24Speaker 1: the laborare labor in that weekend.
- 19:27Speaker 2: You're gonna have to do that.
- 19:28Speaker 1: It might be the time, which is when it's gonna
- 19:29Speaker 1: be seventy five out and nice and it's gonna be hard.
- 19:31Speaker 2: Oh gosh, Well that's the thing. What was the binge?
- 19:34Speaker 2: When it's nice, it's gonna be rough.
- 19:35Speaker 1: All right, that's I'm just throwing it out there, chumming
- 19:38Speaker 1: the waters. It's uh by or so Tuesday here and
- 19:42Speaker 1: you're in the huddle of Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin.
- 19:50Speaker 2: On the hall. Hello, Dolph, Drew Billy, how was your birthday?
- 19:53Speaker 2: It was good, Dolph, Thanks for a half lasers. It
- 19:54Speaker 2: was a phenomenal one. Yeah to the Glazer.
- 19:57Speaker 1: Dolf's always good for a Glazer Birthday donuts, But lated.
- 20:00Speaker 2: Birthday says Armand had the bird.
- 20:02Speaker 1: Armon had a guilt trip because he didn't buy them
- 20:04Speaker 1: yesterday for Billy's birthday, because he forgot Billy's birthday.
- 20:06Speaker 2: Do something.
- 20:07Speaker 1: And then I like, and we had a whole conversation
- 20:09Speaker 1: about this, because dudes just don't do birthdays.
- 20:13Speaker 3: We're not wired that way, shouldn't. I mean that I
- 20:15Speaker 3: should have brought the donuts in. I feel like that's
- 20:17Speaker 3: more what dudes do. Is the guy whose.
- 20:19Speaker 5: Birthday part of the discussion. Scott, Yeah, radio stations. Throughout
- 20:23Speaker 5: my career, that's kind of been the rule. If it's
- 20:25Speaker 5: your birthday, you had to bring in donuts. I remember
- 20:28Speaker 5: when I was young and starving at different radio stations.
- 20:30Speaker 5: I was just praying to God it was somebody's birthday
- 20:32Speaker 5: so I would get breakfast.
- 20:33Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 20:35Speaker 1: I was like when management has their meetings and retreats,
- 20:37Speaker 1: because there's the leftover side, which is salads and stuff.
- 20:40Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 20:41Speaker 2: Yeah, you know. The problem now is donut shops.
- 20:45Speaker 5: There's hardly any left in the middle of the night
- 20:47Speaker 5: when you're coming in.
- 20:48Speaker 2: I mean I used to always stop.
- 20:49Speaker 5: By what was the what was the one not duncan
- 20:52Speaker 5: but bunny dip.
- 20:55Speaker 2: There was one, right on twenty seventh.
- 20:56Speaker 3: Street, and that son of a gun was twenty four.
- 21:00Speaker 3: Oh you could put that thing to the test.
- 21:02Speaker 2: To live in corners there at three games.
- 21:04Speaker 4: Allis going to row Mines and then go to honey
- 21:06Speaker 4: Den shooting some pool at Rominds.
- 21:08Speaker 5: West Dallas used to have one too, right on Greenfield Avenue,
- 21:11Speaker 5: right if.
- 21:11Speaker 4: You ordered the munchkins of the donut holes. I don't
- 21:14Speaker 4: they call it anything, don't holes.
- 21:16Speaker 2: You know they throw a.
- 21:16Speaker 4: Couple extra in the back. Yeah, they know it was
- 21:19Speaker 4: especially if you know it looked like me and everything.
- 21:21Speaker 4: So that's what I think.
- 21:25Speaker 5: I thought.
- 21:25Speaker 3: You know, you get a couple extra in the family.
- 21:28Speaker 3: My dad, uh, working down in the in the valley.
- 21:32Speaker 3: His uh, his stop was always Greebies.
- 21:35Speaker 2: Oh yeah, banger.
- 21:37Speaker 1: I mean, like that's a hard one to beat, especially
- 21:39Speaker 1: waking because they are going to be fired up there
- 21:42Speaker 1: before your six am start. Reby's cruller.
- 21:44Speaker 2: Man, are you kidding me? Oh?
- 21:45Speaker 5: He walked out of there. That box weighs like thirteen
- 21:47Speaker 5: pounds or so. It seems nice and nice and heavy.
- 21:50Speaker 4: But the thing is, you know, you still have quick trip,
- 21:52Speaker 4: you know, but they're not all twenty four hours. You
- 21:54Speaker 4: have to get to the right twenty four hour one
- 21:55Speaker 4: and we've had these issues. I talked about how I
- 21:58Speaker 4: went to McDonald's before Breck hit, you know, so you
- 22:01Speaker 4: never know what's gonna happen.
- 22:02Speaker 2: But yeah, we what a good bakery donut shop or
- 22:06Speaker 2: opening early.
- 22:06Speaker 4: I remember when Krispy Kreme was all the rage when
- 22:09Speaker 4: I when I was like like twenty years ago, when
- 22:11Speaker 4: people started getting.
- 22:12Speaker 1: Krissed on Hyeah when that one opened on Highway one
- 22:15Speaker 1: hundred though, that was a crazy different we did.
- 22:19Speaker 5: We had our huge rolling radio in the parking lot
- 22:22Speaker 5: the morning they had their grand opening celebration. Canny freaking
- 22:25Speaker 5: Rogers was with us in the rolling radio.
- 22:27Speaker 2: Why did you not Kenny Rogers gambling.
- 22:30Speaker 5: Does for the grand opening of Krispy kream in on
- 22:33Speaker 5: Highway one hundred West.
- 22:35Speaker 2: Gambler was in the rolling radio, don't lie. And I
- 22:39Speaker 2: mean because that line was down Highway.
- 22:41Speaker 3: One hundred up Oklahoma and there was a good like
- 22:46Speaker 3: three year stretch that if you had a birthday during
- 22:49Speaker 3: school and you didn't bring Krispy Kreams, Yeah, everyone looked
- 22:52Speaker 3: at you like great, awesome, dude, really thanks and I
- 22:55Speaker 3: appreciate that your mom baked chocolate chip cookies from scratch,
- 23:00Speaker 3: Chrispy Buddy.
- 23:01Speaker 4: I remember Buddy getting his own box and bring it
- 23:03Speaker 4: to school. He got his own dozen for himself. I'm like, wow,
- 23:06Speaker 4: he was a big guy, you know what I mean.
- 23:07Speaker 4: But he's like, you know, you, I get it. You
- 23:09Speaker 4: eat one, and you're like, I can eat thirty five thousand.
- 23:11Speaker 2: That's just it. They're still light and Harry.
- 23:13Speaker 4: Oh Man, Yeah, Krispy Kreme. When the first Chipotle opened,
- 23:17Speaker 4: that was a spaky deal. We were taking the bus
- 23:19Speaker 4: in college to go to Chipotle.
- 23:21Speaker 5: Man, it's always exciting when something opens here that's popular
- 23:24Speaker 5: in other places, you know, like five Guys when they
- 23:26Speaker 5: first came here.
- 23:27Speaker 2: Or the Raising Canes.
- 23:28Speaker 4: Oh yeah, you couldn't drive on using the South parking
- 23:32Speaker 4: lot for ones raising when Raising Canes opened.
- 23:36Speaker 1: It's nice to know we can still get excited about
- 23:38Speaker 1: things in these jaded times. Yes, like the opening of
- 23:41Speaker 1: a new place. You know, God forbid they ever fire
- 23:44Speaker 1: up an in and out burger in these parts.
- 23:46Speaker 3: I was gonna say, there's some that I wonder if
- 23:48Speaker 3: ever reach here and in and out is the one
- 23:50Speaker 3: or what a burger? Because those two absolute weapons and
- 23:55Speaker 3: national chains.
- 23:56Speaker 1: Yeah, and so Culvers is starting to spread the Midwest
- 23:59Speaker 1: and Wisconsin gospel.
- 24:00Speaker 2: Yeah. I remember when my in laws were still around.
- 24:02Speaker 5: They loved coming to Wisconsin so we could go to Culver's.
- 24:06Speaker 5: And then they said we don't need to go anymore
- 24:09Speaker 5: because they lived in Colorado Springs.
- 24:10Speaker 2: Yeah, we have a Culver's down yeah right now. Yeah.
- 24:12Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers wanted to bring in an out in twenty
- 24:15Speaker 4: twelve the Green Bay.
- 24:16Speaker 2: He did. You can't do it. You can't. Yeah, there's
- 24:18Speaker 2: a dolphin.
- 24:19Speaker 1: I remember when you couldn't get cours uncertain Mississippi.
- 24:23Speaker 2: That's so true.
- 24:24Speaker 3: There is there There is a like hardcore rule with
- 24:26Speaker 3: the franchise. They can't go like east of the Mississippi.
- 24:29Speaker 2: Well there was.
- 24:31Speaker 3: I mean eventually everything can loose it up with private equity.
- 24:34Speaker 3: Well because I mean like Pat Mahomes. Now you're seeing
- 24:36Speaker 3: the strength of somebody else. He brought like fifty water
- 24:39Speaker 3: Burgers to the Kansas, Missouri area.
- 24:41Speaker 1: Now he also bought most of them. He owns a
- 24:45Speaker 1: decent amount of them and moved them over there. But
- 24:47Speaker 1: he's like, I need a good spicy ketchup, so I
- 24:49Speaker 1: need to have this here in Texas. Tech guy, he
- 24:51Speaker 1: knows what Waburger was all about. Yeah, I've lived in
- 24:53Speaker 1: California for seven years. In and out Burger was fine.
- 24:56Speaker 2: It was good.
- 24:57Speaker 5: I just never thought it would grow into the legend
- 24:59Speaker 5: that it is today. I was more of a Foster's
- 25:03Speaker 5: Freeze guy, which is another solid UH West Coast chain,
- 25:06Speaker 5: Foster's Freeze.
- 25:07Speaker 1: Very good ice cream, but very good burgers as well.
- 25:10Speaker 1: It's amazing what you can get wrapped into regionally.
- 25:12Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, exactly, because I mean, listen, if I if
- 25:15Speaker 3: I'm down in if I'm down in the Kenosha area,
- 25:18Speaker 3: you know I'm going to the spot simply because Burger Spot.
- 25:23Speaker 5: I'm going a long another lifetime ago, it seems our
- 25:26Speaker 5: first house we ever bought was in Beach Park, Illinois,
- 25:28Speaker 5: just over the Order, and we made a weekend run
- 25:31Speaker 5: almost every weekend to the spot.
- 25:33Speaker 2: Drive in my.
- 25:34Speaker 5: Doc was in Kenosha. When I finished, I go right
- 25:37Speaker 5: to the spot.
- 25:38Speaker 2: Get get a clean bill of hell.
- 25:39Speaker 3: Let me.
- 25:41Speaker 2: Come on, now, what are we talking about? The spot?
- 25:44Speaker 1: Kenosha's in national news because Good Morning America was at
- 25:46Speaker 1: Frank's Diner and Kenosha getting the pulse on election days.
- 25:51Speaker 2: Probably, I mean just visiting diners and stuff.
- 25:53Speaker 4: I don't know, looks like all the looks like all
- 25:56Speaker 4: the Fosters Freezes are in California and Georgia.
- 25:59Speaker 2: Georgia. That's odd, very random. I don't know why. Maybe
- 26:01Speaker 2: a Bulldogs fan.
- 26:02Speaker 4: Yeah, well, we still have the uh white castle in
- 26:06Speaker 4: Pleasant Prairie, right, was it is there?
- 26:07Speaker 2: Still? Is it still there?
- 26:08Speaker 1: I don't know that was the one, you know where
- 26:09Speaker 1: you don't have a white castle anymore.
- 26:12Speaker 2: Casino Royale, that's right, man, that's a rip, that son
- 26:15Speaker 2: of a gun right out of there.
- 26:17Speaker 4: The hot dog is also four ninety nine now the
- 26:19Speaker 4: foot long used to be like it used to be
- 26:21Speaker 4: a dollar ninety dollar, keeping increasing the prairie.
- 26:24Speaker 2: That's life, though, Man, what are you gonna do?
- 26:26Speaker 3: I thought I thought Casino Royale was recession proof, though
- 26:30Speaker 3: they might still. I mean, I thought Casino Royale was
- 26:33Speaker 3: gonna be the one place that I was always gonna
- 26:35Speaker 3: walk in and still get that three dollars beer in
- 26:37Speaker 3: three dollars hot dog pair anymore.
- 26:39Speaker 1: Yeah, But by the way, in and out, their expansion
- 26:42Speaker 1: east pushed to Nashville, and they're into California, Texas, Arizona, Nevada, Colorado, Utah, Oregon, Idaho,
- 26:50Speaker 1: New Mexico, Washington and now Tennessee.
- 26:53Speaker 2: It could happen Hollywood East now.
- 26:54Speaker 5: Still we never thought we could get Yingling beer in
- 26:57Speaker 5: the Midwest, and now we are go to State Fair.
- 26:59Speaker 2: There's a massive building with Yingling all over it. Good example.
- 27:02Speaker 2: I didn't know that. I haven't been to the Ferry yet.
- 27:04Speaker 2: I've got Fomo new this year.
- 27:06Speaker 3: It's almost like like football recruiting and college recruiting.
- 27:09Speaker 2: Yeah, it used to be you could only go regionally.
- 27:11Speaker 3: Now there's a lot of brands that are rolling across
- 27:14Speaker 3: the country trying to grab people.
- 27:15Speaker 2: Yeah, great point, that's right. Uh Dolf, We've been talking.
- 27:17Speaker 1: We were inspire ourself Tuesday and I was asking the
- 27:19Speaker 1: boys you buying are selling that maybe ted Lasso should
- 27:22Speaker 1: have shot it down after three seasons and not done
- 27:25Speaker 1: season four because they just on the season four debut
- 27:28Speaker 1: hit like a couple of days ago, and I don't
- 27:31Speaker 1: hear anybody talking about it. Maybe it's because it'll wait
- 27:32Speaker 1: until everybody can binge. You can't been. They're gonna go
- 27:35Speaker 1: week by week with releasing them and then you can
- 27:37Speaker 1: binge the whole thing in October.
- 27:40Speaker 5: You know, I think the true fans are happy that
- 27:41Speaker 5: it's here. I love some of that cast. I mean,
- 27:45Speaker 5: you know, Jenno Temple's wonderful actress, but I don't you know,
- 27:49Speaker 5: I don't know. It's four seasons enough. I always feel
- 27:52Speaker 5: if I love a show, I was a big Game
- 27:53Speaker 5: of Thrones geek, and if I love a show, I
- 27:56Speaker 5: never hate to see it win unless you know it's time.

- 33:10Speaker 5: the time.
- 33:11Speaker 1: That's glass, Oh my goodness. See, but the thing is
- 33:14Speaker 1: and I remember it.
- 33:15Speaker 3: Otherwise I'll talk about it and I will completely forget
- 33:19Speaker 3: about it. Kind of helps me everything exercise again, Maybe
- 33:23Speaker 3: it's just the short term memory or all I can
- 33:25Speaker 3: start thinking about is training camp.
- 33:27Speaker 2: But it is nice. We're all this and you're like, damn,
- 33:29Speaker 2: what was that gift? Right? You're right there, it is.
- 33:31Speaker 4: There are times when it auto fills the Google. I'm like,
- 33:33Speaker 4: you know it knew I was thinking of this, But
- 33:36Speaker 4: I'm kind of glad because I have the type of Yes,
- 33:38Speaker 4: that's exactly what I'm a work smarter, not hard. I
- 33:41Speaker 4: was exactly trying to figure out the current due point.
- 33:44Speaker 1: You're right, boom, thank you appreciate it. Anything sports we

- 34:56Speaker 3: so mad.
- 34:57Speaker 2: How dare you not allow.
- 34:58Speaker 1: Him to go play international when somebody's paying you fifty
- 35:02Speaker 1: plus million dollars to play and you can only suit
- 35:04Speaker 1: up for forty four games?
- 35:06Speaker 4: I gotta admit that one is. But you know, in
- 35:08Speaker 4: this it seems like people will do whatever pat Riley
- 35:10Speaker 4: wants in this league. Half for grams. Oh my goodness,
- 35:16Speaker 4: that's just incredible.
- 35:18Speaker 2: Did anybody stay up to watch the end of the
- 35:19Speaker 2: Birds game lest night?
- 35:20Speaker 4: Not me.
- 35:20Speaker 2: I watched more of it than I cared to. Man,
- 35:22Speaker 2: they were up to one when I went to bed,
- 35:24Speaker 2: so I'm I'm taking fall. Yeah, not your fault. Dog.
- 35:27Speaker 2: Thanks for popping in. Appreciate it.
- 35:28Speaker 1: As always, halftime is over, we will close up shop
- 35:32Speaker 1: for Billy's portion of the program and coming up next year.
- 35:35Speaker 2: In the Huddle, Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin, the countdown, the
- 35:44Speaker 2: football is on.
- 35:45Speaker 1: It's up on a Tuesday, Drew Billy and Armon bringing
- 35:47Speaker 1: it to you, Billy, Time for a little Who's hot,
- 35:49Speaker 1: Who's not?
- 35:49Speaker 2: Brought to us by Donovan Jorgenson eating and cooling.
- 35:52Speaker 3: So I'm gonna still put uh Logan Henderson into the
- 35:55Speaker 3: hot category, even though he went one well, three batters
- 35:59Speaker 3: too far, one out too long. Yesterday six and a
- 36:02Speaker 3: third he had sat down eleven consecutive padres and touches
- 36:06Speaker 3: the seventh inning for the first time this year. He
- 36:08Speaker 3: had made mention after his six innings of two run
- 36:11Speaker 3: ball against the Pirates that he was hoping to get
- 36:13Speaker 3: a little further. He tapped into the sixth inning into
- 36:16Speaker 3: the month of June, but or end of the month
- 36:18Speaker 3: of July, but never into the seventh inning. First time
- 36:21Speaker 3: ends poorly for the crew as Jackson Merrill hits a
- 36:24Speaker 3: four hundred and thirty five foot blast in.
- 36:26Speaker 1: The seventh to put under cut change up. Oh my goodness, hey,
- 36:29Speaker 1: you hang him. We bang him, banged it, ye, And
- 36:31Speaker 1: that's baseball for you. And Jackson Merrill makes one hundred
- 36:34Speaker 1: million bucks for a reason, so he ain't gonna miss
- 36:36Speaker 1: that one.
- 36:36Speaker 2: Three to two Padres win.
- 36:38Speaker 3: They've won now won thirteen of their last seventeen games.
- 36:42Speaker 3: But getting off the schneid maybe were the La Dodgers
- 36:45Speaker 3: Last night, after they had lost eight of nine. They
- 36:49Speaker 3: win a come from behind, thrilling game against the Kansas
- 36:52Speaker 3: City Royals six five, the final there. Trek Skouoble, not
- 36:56Speaker 3: necessarily hot in his second start as a Dodger, gave
- 36:58Speaker 3: up a bomb five innings for hits, three runs, walked
- 37:01Speaker 3: a couple, and also struck out six guys in that outing.
- 37:05Speaker 3: And finally, in the world of being very very hot,
- 37:09Speaker 3: we've mentioned them a couple of times. The Arizona Diamondbacks
- 37:12Speaker 3: just keep winning. They defade their closer. Who was their
- 37:17Speaker 3: closer when they went to the World Series, Paul Seawald.
- 37:20Speaker 3: He blew four saves. Wow, damn, it's kind of a
- 37:23Speaker 3: short hook. Given up seventeen earned runs in his last
- 37:25Speaker 3: ten games. That's a lot for Paul Seawald. Not hot,
- 37:29Speaker 3: who was hot? Nolan Aernatto last night grand salami for
- 37:33Speaker 3: the d Backs as they beat the Rockies nine to nothing.
- 37:36Speaker 3: And we mentioned that they're getting healthier, Drew, how about
- 37:39Speaker 3: their injury report? A little bit hot here. They're gonna
- 37:42Speaker 3: get Zach Gallon, who threw a bullpen session back, one
- 37:45Speaker 3: of their top starters, Corbyn Burns threw another bullpen on Tuesday.
- 37:49Speaker 2: He's going to be coming back.
- 37:51Speaker 3: And Guriel, they're starting left fielder, took five at bats
- 37:55Speaker 3: in an extended spring training rehab start. They're continuing to
- 37:59Speaker 3: get healthier. It looks like Merril Kelly might still pitch
- 38:02Speaker 3: again this year. So they are getting hotter and healthier
- 38:06Speaker 3: out there in the NL West. And don't look no,
- 38:09Speaker 3: I mean Bruis fans might just have Maybe it's just
- 38:11Speaker 3: me that has a little bit of a PSD PTSD
- 38:14Speaker 3: from that team coming in here a couple of years
- 38:16Speaker 3: ago and running you in two games.
- 38:18Speaker 2: Yeah, Diamondbacks getting hot right now? Who's not a Red
- 38:21Speaker 2: Sox have lost too straight?
- 38:22Speaker 1: Oh my good Oh, my goodness, sound the alarms correction coming,
- 38:26Speaker 1: My goodness. You know your your example of the Diamondbacks
- 38:29Speaker 1: plays into I saw John Smoltz on a podcast and
- 38:34Speaker 1: he was saying, the way to baseball doesn't need a
- 38:37Speaker 1: salary cap per se. But they need is to just
- 38:39Speaker 1: do what they do in the minor leagues and have
- 38:41Speaker 1: half seasons. Mmm, and like restart and then because a
- 38:44Speaker 1: lot of the teams, like small market teams, can be
- 38:46Speaker 1: good for half a season. Yeah, right, and that would
- 38:48Speaker 1: be a reboot, and teams wouldn't be selling at the
- 38:51Speaker 1: you have two trade deadlines.
- 38:52Speaker 2: Two trade deadlines, yeah, and you have the.
- 38:54Speaker 1: Teams wouldn't be selling necessarily at mid season because they
- 38:57Speaker 1: have a chance to reboot. You get an injured guy back,
- 38:59Speaker 1: like if the Brewers and Mis gets hurt, it's a
- 39:02Speaker 1: crushing blow, right, and then but like Burns, if he's coming.
- 39:06Speaker 2: Back, like you back into August. I like that deal.
- 39:09Speaker 1: Actually, it's like if they could sell that to the
- 39:12Speaker 1: players and owners, that'd be a way to alleviate concerns
- 39:15Speaker 1: because it would give small market teams hope.
- 39:17Speaker 2: You could win a half. You could easily win a half.
- 39:19Speaker 3: And what would it also do allow you to uh,
- 39:22Speaker 3: maybe not expand the playoffs, but keep the larger playoff format,
- 39:26Speaker 3: which is all you're selling to the networks. Yeah, right,
- 39:28Speaker 3: Like all they want are one offs and selling to
- 39:31Speaker 3: the networks. You could crowbar in a legit in season
- 39:35Speaker 3: tournament or whatever. At the end of that. For the
- 39:37Speaker 3: first half, that's a fascinating one. I don't usually agree
- 39:39Speaker 3: with a whole lot of John Schmoltz taste. I like
- 39:41Speaker 3: that one either. That one's not bad. That's it's worth
- 39:44Speaker 3: looking into, because they have to find a couple of
- 39:46Speaker 3: different ways, right, Like, there can't just be Hey, it's
- 39:49Speaker 3: either cap or no cap.
- 39:50Speaker 2: Or cap again.
- 39:53Speaker 1: And the cap in the NBA doesn't help Sacramento, it
- 39:55Speaker 1: doesn't help Milwaukee.
- 39:56Speaker 2: Really, it doesn't. Well.
- 39:59Speaker 1: And also to me, it's not a hero all. It's
- 40:02Speaker 1: not going to solve the problems. It's also not what
- 40:05Speaker 1: they're caring about. They don't care about solving the parity
- 40:08Speaker 1: issue now. They care about changing their franchise value. Care
- 40:10Speaker 1: about making more money and paying players, which is why
- 40:13Speaker 1: the Dodgers are willing to give up their massive TV
- 40:16Speaker 1: revenue and put that into a pool because they'll pay
- 40:18Speaker 1: less on players and they'll like it's insane.
- 40:22Speaker 2: Well, and that's it.
- 40:23Speaker 3: Like the incredible deal that the Dodgers have to like,
- 40:26Speaker 3: wait a second, well, we will give it up if
- 40:28Speaker 3: it means that we can we have to spend less
- 40:30Speaker 3: on players, Yeah, we will. We will do it because
- 40:32Speaker 3: we're also going to spend all around all the other
- 40:34Speaker 3: margins and make ourselves way better in every other area.
- 40:37Speaker 3: The money won't stop, It just will keep funneling to
- 40:40Speaker 3: different spots.
- 40:40Speaker 1: Exactly, Billy Save travels through Green Bay for another padded practice.
- 40:45Speaker 1: Thanks fellows, me and Wayne Larby starting up at eleven.
- 40:47Speaker 1: Can't wait eleven to one training camp live. We'll be
- 40:49Speaker 1: right back here in the huddle. Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin
- 40:53Speaker 4: Now
