  Speaker 4: Man yesterday.

  Speaker 2: I sorry, were the great what do you guys?
• 2:31
  Speaker 5: The Blue Devils, Blue Devils, that's right, yep, them and
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: Duke Yep, they were like they were Brewer colors, same
• 2:39
  Speaker 5: exact colors, Navy blue.
• 2:40
  Speaker 6: Like maybe it was destiny.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: I think so.
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: So they uh you signed a minor league deal with them.
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: Twenty twenty two turned things around, obviously. What do you
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: think was the biggest turning point for you to buy?
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: It's just at this big league level, just in pro ball,
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: getting the most out of what you know your ability is.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: I think think in twenty twenty two, I was first
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: year on the forty man, first year big league camp.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: I put a lot of pressure on myself. I tried
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: to be this perfect picture.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: I tried to do everything perfect, and that year did
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: not go as planned as we can as everyone knows.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: But after that season, I just went home and I
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: just tried to free the brain and just be me
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: and get back to me. And Birds did a great
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: job of that. They're just like, hey, this is what
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: you do good. We don't want to put any more
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: pressure on you.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: Just be yourself. And it took a little bit to
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: get going.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: But as that twenty three season went on, just kind
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: of building that confidence back and like I don't really
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: need to change much, just kind of be myself and
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: the successful come.
• 3:38
  Speaker 6: So what do you do well? They said, just do
• 3:40
  Speaker 6: what you do good? What do you do well?
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, fastball at the top, don't try to put it
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: anywhere else. That was kind of what I was trying
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: to I think in the mindset, was just trying to
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: be perfect in twenty two, Like I'm trying to put
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: the ball in one little spot when my hot spots
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: are all over the place, so we can just kind
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: of just trust the catcher and William just such a
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: great job back there.
• 4:00
  Speaker 6: Would mean so, but how hard does that balance? You?
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: Guys? As a big leaguer for as long as you
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: were and as you just get ready really getting into
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: your career, not putting so much pressure on yourself, because
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: it's one thing to get to the big league level,
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: as you know, it's another thing entirely to stay. So
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: kind of putting pressure on yourself, kind of making sure
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: you're not always looking behind you seeing who's coming up.
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: How do you where's the balance?
• 4:20
  Speaker 6: How do you find that?
• 4:22
  Speaker 8: For me?
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: I just The thing that worked for me was just
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: the day by day process, just like focusing on what
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: I have to do the next day and just trying
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: to get better every single day. And when it didn't
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: go well, it was me thinking three months ahead, what's
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: going to happen in two weeks, what's going to happen
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: next month, whatever.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: So I think just taking that one day at a
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: time process and just.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: Focusing on what I have to do today, what I
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: have to do tomorrow, and yeah, just not trying to
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: put too much on my plate.
• 4:48
  Speaker 7: A lot of you have to say twenty twenty two
• 4:51
  Speaker 7: one and fifteen one in fifteen. It's not easy to do, Okay.
• 4:55
  Speaker 7: So I'm gonna tell you a stories. You might have
• 4:57
  Speaker 7: never heard of.
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: This guy. I know Alana knows this. There's a guy
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: named Kyle Losch.
• 5:00
  Speaker 6: Oh.
• 5:00
  Speaker 5: Yeah, the picture for a long time in the big leagues,
• 5:02
  Speaker 5: right went on, had to believe we were in double
• 5:04
  Speaker 5: A together. One year he was one, in like seventeen,
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: he lost like seventeen He won his first game and
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: then lost like seventeen games in a row. And then
• 5:12
  Speaker 5: the next year he was in the big leagues and
• 5:13
  Speaker 5: went on and had like a ten year career. So
• 5:15
  Speaker 5: how do you not let that define you? I mean,
• 5:17
  Speaker 5: I know you said you changed your mindset, and can
• 5:19
  Speaker 5: you when we talked last year on Fox and you
• 5:20
  Speaker 5: were like, oh, I really figured out how to throw
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: the high fastball. But I mean I'm thinking, man if
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: I was one to fifteen, man, I would have been destroyed.
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: But you bounced back and we're in the big leagues.
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: I mean not that long after that.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think just realizing like that wasn't me.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: The whole year was just fighting battles that I've never
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: fought before in my head, which I think that was
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: the biggest thing, being able to like free the mind.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: I've never had that pressure on me as far as
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: like being in the big leagues and being in the
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: big league camp for the first time and.
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: Just putting way too much pressure on myself.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: I just kind of went back to what I did
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: from six years old to twenty twenty one was just
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: have fun with the game. And that's kind of where
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: I went back to, just like enjoying every day instead
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: of having this pressure on yourself every day that you
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: have to I gotta do this, I gotta do that,
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: when really.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: You just got to enjoy yourself and just try to
• 6:11

• 7:17
  Speaker 1: Myers made his major League debut on April twenty third,
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: versus the Pittsburgh Pirates, serning a home run on the
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: first pitch.
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: Were you like, I worked my ass off to get
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: here and then the first pitch, you kid, get away,
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: cut you get away till the second pitch.
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: He grew up in Polk County as well.
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: He's a for me guy.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yep.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: I actually went to one of his camps growing up
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: as a kid. Oh man, I played for Fort Meade
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: High School. I was going to eighth grade and like
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: the summer JV little thing that you can do. Yeah,
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: so we did that, and I went to his camp
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: at year and met him and it's just it had
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: it was meant to be serendipity.
• 7:55
  Speaker 7: After the game, did you say, like, man, you know
• 7:56
  Speaker 7: I'm from Polk County, Like, let me be.
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: You know what.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: I haven't talked to him yet, but I did hear
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: that his I think his grandpa put On or his dad.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: Sorry posted on Facebook like welcome to the League brook
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: in Polk County, so that was pretty cool to see. Yeah,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: and then just facing him. He's in the division, He's
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: in the Vision this year, so I'll make sure I
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: definitely have a conversation.
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: Just show him one time that I'm over there. Keep off.
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: That's good, that's good.
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: Think about it this way though, And Derek Lewandowski does
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: a great job for us too. They say you got
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: to be really good to lose twenty games or one
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: in fifteen because they keep giving you opportunity. So obviously, Tobias,
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: they saw something in you. The numbers are are hard
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: to see, and the problem with this is everybody has
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: to watch your failure on the biggest screen and the
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: biggest stage in life. But obviously they saw something in you,
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: and there's a reason you got to where you are.
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: Do you feel that, like that confidence in you, like
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: you knew you were going to get through that?
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: I do, Yeah, I do.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: I I never thought it wouldn't happen, So I think
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: that's kind of what kept me going was Fortunately I
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: was drafted at seventeen years old, so I had a
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: little bit more time than in times back then. Young five, six,
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: seven years ago were a little bit different where you
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: can spend a couple of years, more years in the
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: minor leagues.
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: Now it's like you got two three years to get there.
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: You're going somewhere else. But I just think.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: I realized really quickly what went wrong and being able
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: to like get back to just getting those thoughts out
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: of my head.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: Once I got those thoughts out of my head, it
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: was just have some fun. And then once I got
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: to the big leagues, it was just compete.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: And honestly, I think that was the hardest part about
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: the minor leagues was like the competitive side of it. Yeah,
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: there's more, you know, guys are working on what they
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: need to work on. And I'm a competitor, Like I
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: love the big moments. I love like let's play one
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: on one, let's do something like that. I love competing
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: every single day.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: So when you watch this kid on the mound right
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: now and you're and you're blowing stuff by guys and
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: you're striking guys out at the big league, I mean,
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: you're a big leaguer.
• 9:55
  Speaker 6: Nobody can ever take that away from you.
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: What would you have told, you know, to Bias years
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: old when you started playing this game, just keep.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: Going, just keep going.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: I think someone actually just asked me this, and after
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: one of my spring outings, one of this kid kid
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: asked me, what advice do you happen? I was just like,
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: just keep going, because, like, you never know what can happen.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: I think a lot of the thoughts I had as
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: a kid were these big leaguers were superheroes, and some
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: of them are they're not.
• 10:23
  Speaker 5: I know, we share the videos and you're pitching in
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: the postseason win, right. You guys had the series and
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: then Pete happened on the bench. I've listened. I've lost
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: one playoff series. I've lost playoff series. I've seen things happen,
• 10:37
  Speaker 5: and I didn't think we're possible. You have Devin Williams
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: in who's the best closer in baseball, not top two
• 10:43
  Speaker 5: or three, and gives up a home run on a
• 10:46
  Speaker 5: pitch that he hasn't given up a home run on
• 10:47
  Speaker 5: like his career.
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: What what was going through the dugouts mind?
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: It was just silent? It was shock, right, shock?
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, But but I mean we got that, we got
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: through that inning, and then the offense came back and
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: and you kind of would have never thought it happened
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: the way it kind of. That's I think that's what
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: makes us good, is like we never feel like we're
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: out of it. We always feel like we could bounce back.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: And I've only been there for a year, and I
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: know they've done it for years and years and years.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: But you get that vibe as soon as you get
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: to the clubhouse and a lot of the guys who
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: get traded over here and they talk about it. It's
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: just like a there's just a winning culture to it.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: And but to go back your question, yeah it was,
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: it was a it was adult.
• 11:24
  Speaker 7: No, let's talk about the culture. What's Murph's were undonned?
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: Undone? What you have tattoos?
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: He's got a hundred words?
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, what's your nickname?
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: I don't have one.
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: What he called me Travis one time last year didn't
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: that didn't stick, So I don't know.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: I don't think I have one yet.
• 11:46
  Speaker 7: He doesn't know who that is.
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: I don't think no way.
• 11:50
  Speaker 5: What is it like though, because you mentioned the winning
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: culture and and the Brewers every year seem to outperform expectations,
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: their win totals, whatever, whatever it is, what is it
• 12:00
  Speaker 5: about the organization.
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: You've been there for a year, a little over a year.
• 12:03
  Speaker 5: Now you you lived it last year when you guys
• 12:05
  Speaker 5: won the game, won the division, went to the postseason.
• 12:08
  Speaker 8: What is it?
• 12:09
  Speaker 7: Is it Murph?
• 12:09
  Speaker 5: Is it the players like Yelich that have been there
• 12:12
  Speaker 5: for a while, William Contrures, I mean the domas is gone,
• 12:14
  Speaker 5: but those guys, or is it start at the top
• 12:17
  Speaker 5: with like anton Osio and then and then Matt Arnold
• 12:20
  Speaker 5: and those guys.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: I don't know if there's a specific, a specific person
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: that comes from or whatnot, but I know that it's
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: just the It's just the pot once you get in there.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: There's we feel like for me, at least my first
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: year in the big leagues, I felt like I I
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: can win every game out there with that defense behind
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: me and the way these guys fight at the plate.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: But yeah, I think it's just it comes from Murph,
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: and I think it comes from the Vets you named Yelich, Reese,
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: Willie last year, Freddy, these guys who've been around, who've
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: been there with Woody he was hurt, but oh yeah
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: he's back. He's back and he looks good. So we're
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: excited for where to get back. And yeah, I don't know,
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: it's just like a you just trust the process is
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: what I get out of it. I just put all
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: my full full trust in William behind the plate the
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: scouting apartment kind of giving me the.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: Leeway to be me and just keeping it simple for me.
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: So how much did you use to shake off your
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: catcher as compared to how much you shake him off now?
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: I don't think.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever shake him with it or
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: would Yeah, maybe once or twice when I'm feeling myself.
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: Out there and it never goes right.
• 13:30
  Speaker 10: So then he'll give you that look.
• 13:32
  Speaker 6: Just trust him.
• 13:33
  Speaker 10: Yeah, he'll give you that look.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: And then you're like, I probably won't do that for
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: about two months.
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: Have you had any conversations with Josekintana obviously an ad
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: this year, a good good boost to that rotation.
• 13:43
  Speaker 6: What are those conversations been?
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: Like, Yeah, he's awesome man.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: He's just to see the way he takes care of
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: his body at the age he is and and you
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: would never know. We were messing around the other day
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: and he was like how old do I look? And
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: I was like twenty five, twenty eight, Like you look
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: good man. The ball's coming out. Cool story about Jose
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: is my first full season twenty seventeen, I went to
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: my first playoff game ever in Chicago with my older agency,
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: and he was starting that game and he went like
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: six shutty or six winner and they ended up winning
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: the game. And I was telling the story the other
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: day and it was just pretty cool to like be
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: that eighteen year old kid then and now being like
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: in a connection with him.
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just it's surreal.
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: So we share this.
• 14:23
  Speaker 7: I caught his debut, did you, Yeah, twenty twelve.
• 14:27
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that's certain years.
• 14:29
  Speaker 4: I mean it's not too long.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: Yoah, he still got it.
• 14:32
  Speaker 4: He's still good. He's still he's always good that you
• 14:34
  Speaker 4: still got no m hm, I ain't still got that.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: Any Uker stories, nothing specific. I think he just the
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: the presence, I mean Jordan's Yeah, he was always well dressed.
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: My locker was kind of we called it option row
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: because yeah, it's kind of like a row or you know,
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: and yeah, yeah, and he has to pass by there
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: every single day. So just it was cool to see
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: like how he interacted with everybody, and he never cut
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: anybody short.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: He would never shorten his time for something that anyone needed.
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: If he's sitting there talking to you, he's he's into
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: the conversation and it was just really cool to hear
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: the stories he had and just you be and you
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: I mean, he's there pretty much every day at home.
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: It was it's gonna suck, and I've seen him, but
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: I mean, we have something to play for this year now,
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: and it's I mean, we have something to play for
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: every year, but we have that little chip on our
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: shoulder this year, and we know he's always going to
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: be there with us. And just really cool to see
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: how he interacted with everyone and how he treated everyone,
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: And there was no doesn't matter if you're there for
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: one day or ten years. He kind of treated everybody
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: exactly the same. And I think that's the specialist to him.
• 15:49
  Speaker 4: All Right.
• 15:50
  Speaker 7: So Alana and I have both done the sausage rips
• 15:53
  Speaker 7: in Milwaukee.

  Speaker 5: gonna just kind of take it easy.
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: They took off fast.
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, they're trying to win.
• 16:18
  Speaker 7: I was like, I got to catch up.
• 16:19
  Speaker 5: So I cut way inside and Reese was on deck
• 16:22
  Speaker 5: and I was screaming like, look out, Reese, it's up.
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: Might run you over. But yeah, people have money on
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: that thing.

• 20:41
  Speaker 5: he was my bullpencatcher in Minnesota, and so we get
• 20:44
  Speaker 5: all the way. We did this whole thing, and he
• 20:45
  Speaker 5: had just come out of the children's book and the
• 20:47
  Speaker 5: best part was we were in the ring and we
• 20:49
  Speaker 5: weren't allowed to touch him. He's like, oh, I'm not
• 20:51
  Speaker 5: doing anything, So instead you beat up my brother. So
• 20:54
  Speaker 5: instead of David, we had to beat up Rick.
• 20:56
  Speaker 7: So it was two on one.
• 20:57
  Speaker 4: Yes, so it was me and my partner. It was
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: me and my partner versus basically Rick.
• 21:01
  Speaker 5: And then he had a guy come in and say, oh,
• 21:03
  Speaker 5: gotcha right, But he had a children's book and so
• 21:05
  Speaker 5: in front of the crowd. I grabbed his book and
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: I just ripped the pages like and everyone's like I was,
• 21:14
  Speaker 5: and I threw him out him there, his brother, what
• 21:16
  Speaker 5: are you doing?
• 21:17
  Speaker 7: You know?

  Speaker 4: Welcome Did he sign up for you? Was the one
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: I wasn't the one I ripped.
• 21:24
  Speaker 8: I went to the Richard Nixon Library and uh whenever

  Speaker 8: it was, and he was doing a signing there. I
• 21:28
  Speaker 8: waited like two hours in line and.
• 21:31
  Speaker 4: He signed for me.
• 21:32
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 21:32
  Speaker 6: Now they say you shouldn't meet your heroes, and you
• 21:34
  Speaker 6: did and it ended up being okay. Yeah, you guys
• 21:36
  Speaker 6: get connected.
• 21:37
  Speaker 7: Just a regular guy.
• 21:38
  Speaker 8: The the gym that I worked out at this off
• 21:40
  Speaker 8: season had a had a new The guy, the person
• 21:42
  Speaker 8: who on that gym knew him somehow and and he
• 21:45
  Speaker 8: works over there at Seminole State College helps them out
• 21:48
  Speaker 8: a bunch.
• 21:48
  Speaker 4: So I went over there and met him and worked
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: with hous Marrier's camp going.
• 21:54
  Speaker 7: Maren's camp is going well, is it? Yeah? Yeah, it's
• 21:57
  Speaker 7: about what's the difference this year?
• 21:58
  Speaker 5: I mean, you guys are supposed to man, you guys
• 22:02
  Speaker 5: have like the greatest pitching staff ever assembled.
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: Like you guys are supposed to Yeah, that is true.
• 22:07
  Speaker 7: Yeah, there wasn't really a question out there, but yeah,
• 22:09
  Speaker 7: we're definitely supposed to win.
• 22:11
  Speaker 8: I know what.
• 22:13
  Speaker 7: Cocked out, But I mean we talk about it all
• 22:16
  Speaker 7: the time on here.
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: We want you guys to win.
• 22:18
  Speaker 5: I mean, when you look at your starting five and
• 22:20
  Speaker 5: then you look at your bullpend, you're like, this team
• 22:23
  Speaker 5: has what what what does it need to happen for
• 22:26
  Speaker 5: you guys to get to.
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: The postseason and make a deep run.
• 22:29
  Speaker 8: Well, everyone having not having down years the entire season
• 22:33
  Speaker 8: would would have definitely help, which I don't see happening.
• 22:36
  Speaker 7: We're definitely we're playing a little bit more this this
• 22:38
  Speaker 7: this spring.
• 22:39
  Speaker 8: Guys are getting more action, you know, Dan springing in,
• 22:42
  Speaker 8: uh like a little bit more of an old school vibe,
• 22:45
  Speaker 8: and we're getting everybody ready, not really not trying to
• 22:49
  Speaker 8: uh just a little bit, get everyone more ready, get
• 22:52
  Speaker 8: the bats underneath us. That way, we don't have like
• 22:54
  Speaker 8: a slow start, because you know, over one hundred sixty
• 22:56
  Speaker 8: two games, sometimes we forget about the game, the able
• 22:58
  Speaker 8: that we should have won, and we we harp on
• 23:00
  Speaker 8: the last couple that we lost to lose it.
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: I know that you guys, as AJ mentioned, unbelievably good
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: starting staff. George Kirby has a little bit of inflammation
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: right now dealing with that. Alaford to lose him, But
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: you've got to make that up in other ways. I
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: know you feel like you have the guys to do it,
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: but position player wise and lengthening that lineup you had mentioned,
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: everybody has to have not a down year.
• 23:20
  Speaker 6: What what are the conversations like.
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: I mean, it'd be nice if you could just flip
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: flip the switch, obviously, Dylan and say all right, we're
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: gonna we're gonna do this, We're gonna do this, We're
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: gonna do this. But what has the mindset and conversations
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: been like in spring moving forward?
• 23:31
  Speaker 8: I think we've talked to each other more as teammates
• 23:35
  Speaker 8: instead of just just talking to the coaches down to us.
• 23:37
  Speaker 8: We've kind of conferred more with each other with the
• 23:41
  Speaker 8: with with what we've had success, with what we haven't
• 23:43
  Speaker 8: had success with. The rookies or the younger guys are
• 23:46
  Speaker 8: asking more questions to the older guys, and we're having
• 23:49
  Speaker 8: thoughts and conversations. I think about Mitch Haniger and all
• 23:52
  Speaker 8: of the success that he's had, and he's really good
• 23:54
  Speaker 8: at voicing his opinion and being real clear about what
• 23:58
  Speaker 8: he wants when he's up to that.
• 24:00
  Speaker 7: Julio Spend great. All these guys have been great.
• 24:02
  Speaker 8: We have a good mixture of communication with because every
• 24:06
  Speaker 8: player is different in how they are successful. It's such
• 24:10
  Speaker 8: an individual game, individualized game, so you can pick up
• 24:15
  Speaker 8: different stuff from different people. And I think that we're
• 24:19
  Speaker 8: just we're trying to keep it a little as a whole.
• 24:20
  Speaker 8: We're just keep it a little bit more simple. Stand
• 24:23
  Speaker 8: through the middle of the field and just square the
• 24:27
  Speaker 8: ball up and hitting the ball hard.
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: Is that Dan?
• 24:29
  Speaker 5: Is that Dan Wilson doing? Is it your new hitting coach,
• 24:32
  Speaker 5: Kevin Sitzer's doing? Is that Edgar's doing?
• 24:35
  Speaker 8: It seems like we're all it's all it's all been
• 24:38
  Speaker 8: voice to us. Just kind of keep everything loose and
• 24:43
  Speaker 8: keep everything simple. I think that sometimes over the course
• 24:46
  Speaker 8: of the season, and even you know in the spring training,
• 24:49
  Speaker 8: if you're struggling, you want to change everything, and sometimes
• 24:53
  Speaker 8: I can put you in further away from getting.
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: Back on track.
• 24:56
  Speaker 7: And so to shorten those ups and downs and make
• 24:58
  Speaker 7: it more of or more steady.
• 25:01
  Speaker 8: Throughout the season, we've been we've been deciding to just
• 25:06
  Speaker 8: kind of make it a little more simple and keep
• 25:10
  Speaker 8: the foundational piece there and not change too much and
• 25:13
  Speaker 8: just really focus on staying in the middle of field
• 25:16
  Speaker 8: and having a good approach.
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: It's funny you hear the fans in the stands say,
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: you know, swing at strikes or throw strikes or.
• 25:21
  Speaker 7: Hit the ball.
• 25:22
  Speaker 6: It's so easy, right, I mean, everybody can do it.
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: Obviously, there's seven hundred and eighty guys that make the
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: opening day roster for thirty teams with twenty six of you,
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: and each twenty six of you have a different personality,
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: so you have to figure out what motivates you. And
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: you just mentioned everybody has a different way of preparing
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: or getting the most out of them.
• 25:39
  Speaker 6: What is that for you? Like, how do you get
• 25:41
  Speaker 6: the most out of Dylan Moore?
• 25:43
  Speaker 7: Yeah, that's a good question. It's changed over the course
• 25:48
  Speaker 7: of my career.
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: I think that.
• 25:51
  Speaker 8: I am more of a someplace a guy in the
• 25:53
  Speaker 8: way that I need to take information in my brain.
• 25:58
  Speaker 8: There's certain things that can get in there that don't
• 26:01
  Speaker 8: really matter in that when you're in the box facing
• 26:03
  Speaker 8: the picture, AJ you know that, like you know, there's
• 26:06
  Speaker 8: a difference between game thought and practice thought and practice
• 26:08
  Speaker 8: thought you're thinking about your swing and then you're trying
• 26:11
  Speaker 8: to feel stuff out. But when you get in the game,
• 26:13
  Speaker 8: it's you versus him, and there's no one else that
• 26:15
  Speaker 8: can help you. And if you're thinking about things that
• 26:17
  Speaker 8: don't matter.
• 26:18
  Speaker 7: That can hurt you a lot. So so for me,
• 26:20
  Speaker 7: I guess less is more. Less is more. Yeah, yeah,
• 26:24
  Speaker 7: that's good way to put up. Do you guys talk
• 26:26
  Speaker 7: about the batters? I because it's such a story.
• 26:28
  Speaker 5: We get talked at about the batter, But you guys,
• 26:31
  Speaker 5: don't you ask what I always said, like the players
• 26:33
  Speaker 5: don't talk about it really right, Like I mean, because
• 26:37
  Speaker 5: I don't know. I loved hitting in Seattle, so maybe
• 26:40
  Speaker 5: it was just because Gatta went very good when I played,
• 26:42
  Speaker 5: so it was like, maybe I'm pitching wasn't that great,
• 26:44
  Speaker 5: But I loved going there and hitting.
• 26:45
  Speaker 4: And I'm left handed.
• 26:46
  Speaker 5: But everyone says right handed hitters have a hard time
• 26:49
  Speaker 5: because the angle of the batter's eye.
• 26:51
  Speaker 7: Yeah, there's been a bunch of.
• 26:54
  Speaker 8: For lack of better term, and excuses on why it's
• 26:57
  Speaker 8: it's a really tough part to hit him. Obviously, the
• 26:59
  Speaker 8: number are pretty uh pretty set on it's it's one
• 27:05
  Speaker 8: of the tougher ballparks to hit him. For me personally,
• 27:08
  Speaker 8: I've never really noticed whether I see the ball flying there. Now,
• 27:12
  Speaker 8: do you hit balls if you're not a superpower hitdle
• 27:15
  Speaker 8: your hit balls into the cap that are home runs
• 27:16
  Speaker 8: and other places that are caught. Can that do something
• 27:19
  Speaker 8: to your psyche? I mean absolutely, There's there's a million
• 27:23
  Speaker 8: different things in that ballpark that makes hitting really hard.
• 27:25
  Speaker 8: It makes our pictures really good. So that's the other
• 27:27
  Speaker 8: part of it. That's the other caveat is that we
• 27:29
  Speaker 8: make our pictures look really good. So that's something else
• 27:32
  Speaker 8: that we talked about in camp is kind of changing
• 27:34
  Speaker 8: the way that we're going to create runs and the
• 27:35
  Speaker 8: way that we're gonna hitting and running, running, hitting and running, running, stealing, Like.
• 27:41
  Speaker 7: You guys have some players that can really do it.
• 27:44
  Speaker 7: You're hitting Coach Tomers. By the way, who's that Kevin Titcher.
• 27:47
  Speaker 7: I'll have to ask him about that. It's only been
• 27:48
  Speaker 7: it's only been three weeks.
• 27:50
  Speaker 5: At in the first meeting, like one of the first meetings,
• 27:53
  Speaker 5: you had a meeting with all of us guys. I
• 27:55
  Speaker 5: just want to know, I hate home runs and we're
• 27:57
  Speaker 5: all like, I love home runs. Like he's like, oh,
• 28:00
  Speaker 5: you know, but it's because of this.
• 28:02
  Speaker 7: YE want you guys to hit more line drives and
• 28:04
  Speaker 7: not try to hit Homer, so right, he'll fit right
• 28:07
  Speaker 7: in h Yeah, that's the way to go.
• 28:09
  Speaker 8: Yeah, we have to figure out different ways to score runs,
• 28:11
  Speaker 8: like even three or four at home could basically win
• 28:14
  Speaker 8: us the.
• 28:14
  Speaker 7: Game with art like pitching staff.
• 28:17
  Speaker 5: And my big thing for when I went to Seattle
• 28:19
  Speaker 5: was I just didn't want to be sunny during a
• 28:21
  Speaker 5: day game because if the roof was open, there was
• 28:23
  Speaker 5: like a little glare off the batter's eye. As long
• 28:25
  Speaker 5: as the roof was closer was cloudy, it was I
• 28:27
  Speaker 5: was like, I see the ball.
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: Great. Yeah.
• 28:29
  Speaker 7: I was talking to someone today.
• 28:29
  Speaker 8: I can't remember where it was, but he the only
• 28:34
  Speaker 8: thing that I noticed sometime is when the when the
• 28:35
  Speaker 8: sun is setting, it's usually in midsummertime. Seattle is very
• 28:39
  Speaker 8: interesting because the sun will move throughout the year, and
• 28:44
  Speaker 8: like it sets in different spots and the shadows move
• 28:46
  Speaker 8: in different ways. But when the sun lights up the
• 28:48
  Speaker 8: batter side, that's when I find it the most difficult
• 28:50
  Speaker 8: to hit. But that's the same anywhere. I'm sure you're like, yeah,
• 28:52
  Speaker 8: like if it's the sun, it's on the batter's eye,
• 28:54
  Speaker 8: and it's not black.
• 28:55
  Speaker 7: It's like more of like a light. It's gonna be
• 28:56
  Speaker 7: harder to see. I'm not gone.
• 28:57
  Speaker 6: How many gloves do you bring to the field?
• 29:00
  Speaker 4: Bring to the field?
• 29:01
  Speaker 6: Yeah, you're all over the place.
• 29:02
  Speaker 7: Oh yeah, wherever I'm playing? Is one I got? I
• 29:06
  Speaker 7: got the first place glove in the back and the
• 29:08
  Speaker 7: poulefield glove there.
• 29:09
  Speaker 8: I usually just use one. I do have two now
• 29:12
  Speaker 8: in field gloves. I just use one for all the positions.
• 29:15
  Speaker 8: So I got three, anywhere from three to four. You
• 29:17
  Speaker 8: have five because you bring your goal glove with you,
• 29:19
  Speaker 8: don't you.
• 29:22
  Speaker 7: I take it off, I take it off, take it
• 29:24
  Speaker 7: off of the thing, and I just carry it with
• 29:26
  Speaker 7: me out there. I would if I ever want a
• 29:27
  Speaker 7: gold glove? Are you kidding me?
• 29:29
  Speaker 8: No?
• 29:29
  Speaker 5: One would ever not see that THINGNA try you should
• 29:31
  Speaker 5: wear got the irons and gold chin.
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah I would have.
• 29:34
  Speaker 5: I would have tried to catch with it, because it's
• 29:36
  Speaker 5: actually a real glove, right, you could actually try and
• 29:38
  Speaker 5: play with Actually, I would have actually been.
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: Like, yeah, look at it, look at me. Yeah you
• 29:42
  Speaker 4: know I'm not gonna do that.
• 29:43
  Speaker 6: But yet, do you have a preference do you love
• 29:47
  Speaker 6: to play?
• 29:48
  Speaker 7: What do I love to play.
• 29:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 29:51
  Speaker 8: The way that I look at it is places that
• 29:53
  Speaker 8: are really hard to win, or the places that all
• 29:56
  Speaker 8: stadiums try to get their home team to win.
• 29:58
  Speaker 7: But it's really hard to win in May that team
• 30:01
  Speaker 7: for a long time. It'll be interesting.
• 30:02
  Speaker 8: Now it's a little bit changed, but they've they've built
• 30:04
  Speaker 8: their team to win in that stadium, and it was
• 30:07
  Speaker 8: really difficult to win, especially early out of my career.
• 30:10
  Speaker 8: So I love playing there because it's it's a real
• 30:12
  Speaker 8: challenge and to win there is really fun. The Bronx
• 30:15
  Speaker 8: is another one for me that's a really fun place.
• 30:17
  Speaker 8: It's like the Mecca of baseball. It's always loud, the
• 30:19
  Speaker 8: fans are rowdy. That's another good one.
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: Honey mentioned Houston, and we were talking earlier with Seth
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: Brown of the Athletics and the Ale West.
• 30:27
  Speaker 6: I feel is wide open.
• 30:28
  Speaker 7: You know.
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: Obviously, I know you guys have an unbelievable pitching staff.
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: You're very good, h you know, you're a very good club.
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: But there's a lot of clubs, you know.
• 30:36
  Speaker 6: I think the A's are better than they were left,
• 30:39
  Speaker 6: you know, I.
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: Think the Astros are probably worse, perhaps with the you know,
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: departures of Tucker and Brickman.
• 30:45
  Speaker 6: How do you see it?
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: You know, obviously you're going in thinking you're going to
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: win the division, right, but how do you compete in that?
• 30:51
  Speaker 8: Yeah, it's it's yeah, it's interesting. With the start of
• 30:55
  Speaker 8: spring training, we only get to play in the Al West.
• 30:58
  Speaker 8: You know, a couple of those teams only played against
• 31:00
  Speaker 8: the Angels, the the Rangers, and the and the A's
• 31:05
  Speaker 8: and the Rangers. You know, they look good, Like like
• 31:07
  Speaker 8: I don't really pay attention to what goes on in
• 31:09
  Speaker 8: the offseason, but like when they get there, hey they
• 31:11
  Speaker 8: got this guy, they got this guy. You know, the
• 31:12
  Speaker 8: Rangers have a really good lineup. So like it's it's
• 31:16
  Speaker 8: big League baseball and everyone's trying to gear up to win.
• 31:20
  Speaker 8: Everyone has their strength, and I guess it's just come
• 31:22
  Speaker 8: down to who who just plays who plays the best baseball?
• 31:26
  Speaker 7: I mean, I think we have the edge of pitching,
• 31:29
  Speaker 7: which is probably which is probably I mean on everybody,
• 31:32
  Speaker 7: which is probably the biggest which probably the biggest edge.
• 31:34
  Speaker 4: You can get.
• 31:35
  Speaker 7: So it'll be interesting.
• 31:37
  Speaker 8: But yeah, like you said, it's it's definitely wide open.
• 31:40
  Speaker 8: When everyone's zero and zero, it's everything's wide open, all right.
• 31:43
  Speaker 5: I got ask just because you played with justin turn
• 31:45
  Speaker 5: us obviously saw his comment recently said.
• 31:48
  Speaker 4: About your guy's not doing a lot.
• 31:50
  Speaker 5: Sure, what how does that make you feels a guy
• 31:52
  Speaker 5: that's still on the mirrors and you guys still have
• 31:54
  Speaker 5: a chance to win?
• 31:54
  Speaker 4: You see him saying he wishes you guys would have
• 31:57
  Speaker 4: done more.
• 31:58
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean there's there's the way that I look
• 32:00
  Speaker 8: at is that I can't really control that, and so
• 32:04
  Speaker 8: there's not much for us to do.
• 32:06
  Speaker 7: We all want to win. I mean, every single person
• 32:08
  Speaker 7: in that locker room wants to win.
• 32:09
  Speaker 4: We're a competitor.
• 32:10
  Speaker 8: You know, you were a competitor when you played, absolutely
• 32:12
  Speaker 8: so like and we try not to worry about the
• 32:14
  Speaker 8: things that we can't really control. So we're just gonna
• 32:17
  Speaker 8: go out there, and you know, everyone's telling us that
• 32:19
  Speaker 8: we should have done more, and we could have done more,
• 32:21
  Speaker 8: and I always it's just like one of those things where.
• 32:26
  Speaker 7: I can't really control it.
• 32:27
  Speaker 8: So just go out there and do the best you
• 32:28
  Speaker 8: can and then, you know, like you said, elongate that
• 32:31
  Speaker 8: lineup and score a couple of runs and our pitching will.
• 32:33
  Speaker 4: Take care of the rest.
• 32:34
  Speaker 5: Have you seen the video of them doing the exercise
• 32:37
  Speaker 5: balls throwing, the exercise balls and Cal Rowley and the catchers. No,
• 32:41
  Speaker 5: I have there's a video on the internet. I think
• 32:43
  Speaker 5: Ryannivish had it and they were like working on tag
• 32:46
  Speaker 5: players and they're throwing like the yoga ball at them.
• 32:48
  Speaker 7: Oh yeah I did see that.
• 32:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I saw. Do you guys do anything like
• 32:50
  Speaker 4: that in the infield?
• 32:52
  Speaker 7: No, Our work is pretty serious.
• 32:57
  Speaker 10: What are you trying to say?
• 32:59
  Speaker 8: Those catchers chers very very They work a lot, so
• 33:01
  Speaker 8: I don't know how they have time to do that
• 33:03
  Speaker 8: type of Oh, because they report with the pitchers, so
• 33:05
  Speaker 8: they have two extra weeks to you know, kind of
• 33:07
  Speaker 8: do whatever. Outfielders is a little bit of a free
• 33:10
  Speaker 8: for all. But we have to actually, you know, feel
• 33:12
  Speaker 8: our balls and it actually work catch. I have a
• 33:17
  Speaker 8: lot of respect for catchers especially.
• 33:19
  Speaker 5: I could never can if if Dan Wilson said, you, hey,
• 33:23
  Speaker 5: you know, Dylan Cow's a little banged up, you know, Mitch,
• 33:27
  Speaker 5: Mitch behind the plates, got a little creaky something.
• 33:30
  Speaker 7: No, that would never. That would never have to be
• 33:32
  Speaker 7: the emergency guy though, right, you'd.
• 33:33
  Speaker 4: Have to be the third guy.
• 33:34
  Speaker 7: No, I would not have to be the third would
• 33:36
  Speaker 7: be I don't know, it wouldn't be me.
• 33:37
  Speaker 4: I was taking JP back there. That's true. I was
• 33:40
  Speaker 4: thinking Julio back there.
• 33:41
  Speaker 7: Hold on, let me think about this because with our.
• 33:45
  Speaker 8: Man, if there, if if there came a time where
• 33:47
  Speaker 8: that happened, we'd be in some real trouble there.
• 33:50
  Speaker 7: There could be the situation.
• 33:51
  Speaker 8: I always said that if somebody had a good idea
• 33:54
  Speaker 8: to to propose to me, if there was a position
• 33:56
  Speaker 8: player pitching, I could go back there.
• 33:58
  Speaker 6: Maybe, But then you don't know where it's going. It
• 34:01
  Speaker 6: might even be worse.
• 34:02
  Speaker 8: But it's very slow and I can catch it. He's
• 34:03
  Speaker 8: not throwing stuff in the dirt hopefully.
• 34:05
  Speaker 6: Let's yeah, throw hundred miles an hour, right, right, I
• 34:08
  Speaker 6: throw forty.
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's much better for me.
• 34:11
  Speaker 6: Yeah, tell Utter, thanks you taking them, how.
• 34:14
  Speaker 10: To be with us?
• 34:14
  Speaker 4: Thanks for some more goal.
• 34:15
  Speaker 7: Let's do it.
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm with welcoming Gabriel moreno here. Of course with
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: the Arizona Diamondbacks, you've had some big innings and some
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: big moments already in the postseason. Take us back to
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: twenty and twenty three, just kind of going through that
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: that time or when you guys were in the World
• 34:32
  Speaker 3: Series twenty three twenty two. Can't remember what you at
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: this point, just some big moments. What what was the
• 34:38
  Speaker 3: most important thing for you.
• 34:39
  Speaker 10: Then, Eh, the Mars.
• 34:42
  Speaker 11: Most more than its important to that moment was the
• 34:46
  Speaker 11: all the way they we play to get the playoffs,
• 34:52
  Speaker 11: all the season, all this stuff, all day. We put
• 34:54
  Speaker 11: it war harder to make the playoffs, white Car and
• 34:59
  Speaker 11: all this stuff. Often, I think that that was the
• 35:02
  Speaker 11: best part for me because we build, we build the
• 35:07
  Speaker 11: year to get this spar And when we was in
• 35:11
  Speaker 11: and white Car, that was amazing what we're doing Milwaukee,
• 35:15
  Speaker 11: that was incredible moment.
• 35:18
  Speaker 10: My Homers against Burn my.
• 35:20
  Speaker 6: Team and.
• 35:22
  Speaker 10: Let me know, let knowle know, Yeah, it's my guy.
• 35:25
  Speaker 10: It's good and good. That is one my thing.
• 35:31
  Speaker 11: What I remember the white Car is the next day
• 35:35
  Speaker 11: against Doer was crazy, insane, Yeah, yeah, in those moments,
• 35:39
  Speaker 11: like I still believe it, those moments doing the build
• 35:44
  Speaker 11: the Dogers three games and build a twin in do
• 35:48
  Speaker 11: Youer Stadium. So that's crazy. And I think that it's
• 35:53
  Speaker 11: good against Philly everybody know, like top play top to
• 35:59
  Speaker 11: play there and get it get comfortable to be them
• 36:04
  Speaker 11: in Philadelphia. I think that's the most incredible part of that.
• 36:08
  Speaker 11: I remember, and those pos and go to a war series.
• 36:13
  Speaker 11: That's that dream come true and we don't get that ring,
• 36:17
  Speaker 11: but like we do the air for Yeah, we did
• 36:19
  Speaker 11: the effort to win and we're still have it won, dibo,
• 36:24
  Speaker 11: They's done.
• 36:25
  Speaker 10: So we just gotta keep playing every day and when
• 36:29
  Speaker 10: the ring, that's what I want.
• 36:33
  Speaker 5: What was it like your first year you go to
• 36:36
  Speaker 5: the World Series, you win go glove right, which is incredible,
• 36:40
  Speaker 5: but then last year you get hurt and the team
• 36:43
  Speaker 5: missed you, right, So what was it like sitting out
• 36:46
  Speaker 5: after going to the World Series? Being listen as a
• 36:48
  Speaker 5: former catcher, you were like, to me, the catcher is
• 36:50
  Speaker 5: the most important position on in the team. So what
• 36:53
  Speaker 5: was it like when you had to sit out and
• 36:54
  Speaker 5: watch your team and then you missed the playoffs on
• 36:56
  Speaker 5: the last day by one game, and you think, I
• 37:00
  Speaker 5: just could have played that time.
• 37:01
  Speaker 10: We would have.
• 37:01
  Speaker 5: We would have won ninety five games, been in the
• 37:03
  Speaker 5: postiation and maybe under the World Series again.
• 37:05
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 37:06
  Speaker 11: Yeah, at that moment, the from last year was I
• 37:10
  Speaker 11: know it's her. I was looking the games every night.
• 37:16
  Speaker 4: It's her.
• 37:16
  Speaker 11: It's her because we I think we meet there, we
• 37:20
  Speaker 11: can win more games and go to the players more easily.
• 37:24
  Speaker 11: But like you know, the baseball is hard, like it's
• 37:27
  Speaker 11: not it's not easy. But I saw like my teammates
• 37:32
  Speaker 11: Prera and the he got called up and they do a.
• 37:38
  Speaker 12: Pretty good yad too, So but I know it's you
• 37:42
  Speaker 12: got you got gold on the sand though gold who yeah, yeah,
• 37:48
  Speaker 12: I know that's.
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: The see again, he said, he knew, he knows that,
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: you know, they missed him obviously, but he wanted to
• 38:19
  Speaker 3: make sure that he was there still offerating the support
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: and still helping them kind of guiding the pitching staff.
• 38:24
  Speaker 3: And it was obviously hard for him to sit back
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: when he's not there being hurt, but he still wanted
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: to be available to them and still help despite the
• 38:30
  Speaker 3: fact that he's not, you know, behind the plate, not
• 38:32
  Speaker 3: guiding the pitching staff physically. He was there for them
• 38:34
  Speaker 3: in terms of support, but he certainly knows that that
• 38:37
  Speaker 3: they missed him too.
• 38:38
  Speaker 10: And uh, I know, just talk about the go go
• 38:41
  Speaker 10: and yeah that was that year. Like I was like
• 38:48
  Speaker 10: in the end at the end of the season, somebody
• 38:51
  Speaker 10: told me, like you you they're like to win and
• 38:53
  Speaker 10: I don't know that. How can you check?
• 38:57
  Speaker 11: And then I just look around yeah yeah, yeah, well
• 39:01
  Speaker 11: and in the end of the season, I don't know
• 39:02
  Speaker 11: how win all those win the gold Glove. Like I
• 39:07
  Speaker 11: don't care what that. I just cared winning games and
• 39:11
  Speaker 11: all this stuff. But like that that year was great.
• 39:14
  Speaker 11: I win my first goal glove. Last year ago was finalist.
• 39:18
  Speaker 11: But like what you say, I was hurt two months
• 39:20
  Speaker 11: and a half and I think this year that is
• 39:24
  Speaker 11: my my goal. I'd be healthy all the season. It's
• 39:28
  Speaker 11: still in the field every day and green games like
• 39:31
  Speaker 11: where I want you guys.
• 39:34
  Speaker 3: I love the fact I give you a lot of
• 39:36
  Speaker 3: credit that you are trying to speak English because it's hard.
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: It's hard to come play this game and try to
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: do things in a different language. Why is it important
• 39:46
  Speaker 3: for arended in the vistas and English? What do you
• 39:52
  Speaker 3: want to do the interviews?
• 39:54
  Speaker 11: Actually I can speak English good, not perfectly, but like
• 39:58
  Speaker 11: I can speak good. It's just like every time when
• 40:01
  Speaker 11: I see like camera in front of me and I
• 40:03
  Speaker 11: got yeah, great, No, it's great every time. Yeah, every
• 40:10
  Speaker 11: time when I see the camera, I get nervous and
• 40:13
  Speaker 11: trying to do my best and talking when they all
• 40:17
  Speaker 11: when they in my teammate in the clothouse, they tell me, hey,
• 40:20
  Speaker 11: do it, do it?
• 40:21
  Speaker 8: Do it?
• 40:22
  Speaker 11: One time you had to do it. And now I
• 40:24
  Speaker 11: have a couple of interview with the camera in English,
• 40:28
  Speaker 11: and that's what I'm saying here, like, hey, let's do
• 40:30
  Speaker 11: it vote.
• 40:33
  Speaker 10: In English. Its finish. So that's made me more comfortable.
• 40:35
  Speaker 5: To me, I can't imagine going to Venezuela and the
• 40:38
  Speaker 5: reporters coming to me and I'm like, I don't know.
• 40:42
  Speaker 4: I mean, I know a little bit of Span.
• 40:44
  Speaker 5: I know enough baseball Spanish where I can get away
• 40:46
  Speaker 5: with speaking Spanish to you if you were my teammate.
• 40:50
  Speaker 4: But there's no way I could do it.
• 40:51
  Speaker 5: If if in Venezuela, if Vazzie Geen came up to
• 40:54
  Speaker 5: me and said, hey, do an interview in.
• 40:58

  Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's true. But like, yeah, you know,
• 42:56

• 43:02
  Speaker 11: and now in that times was like killing in the
• 43:07
  Speaker 11: clubs as a catcher, and he he was my my
• 43:11
  Speaker 11: fite calture in that time. So because in that time
• 43:14
  Speaker 11: we had a same style like aggress. He turned to
• 43:16
  Speaker 11: the basis all this stuff, and uh, I just follow him.
• 43:21
  Speaker 11: At that time, why did you become a catcher? You talked,
• 43:23
  Speaker 11: you told you to be a catcher and the scout
• 43:27
  Speaker 11: I was right, you said toront I went to Yeah,
• 43:31

  Speaker 4: Like that's awesome.
• 44:07
  Speaker 6: How long did it? Did you believe it right away
• 44:10
  Speaker 6: that you could be a catcher? I wanted it take
• 44:12
  Speaker 6: you to believe it.
• 44:12
  Speaker 11: Yourself in that time when they when they tell me like, hey,
• 44:18
  Speaker 11: we're going to sign you, but as a catcher, I
• 44:21
  Speaker 11: was like I was thinking, like catcher.
• 44:25
  Speaker 10: I never got I've never been like a catcher, like
• 44:27
  Speaker 10: and and then I told with my.
• 44:32

• 44:43
  Speaker 10: contrail and stuff. And it took me like.
• 44:50
  Speaker 11: Three like three four or five months to get like
• 44:56
  Speaker 11: to learn more as a catcher and be ready for
• 44:59
  Speaker 11: games stuff. And I think that's the thing what I
• 45:03
  Speaker 11: know to me, like what I know, I'm always trying
• 45:07
  Speaker 11: to learn like the most possible too to game development
• 45:12
  Speaker 11: as everything like so hitting, receiving everything.
• 45:16
  Speaker 10: That's what I know to me, and and that's it.
• 45:21
  Speaker 10: That's what that help me help me to to where
• 45:25
  Speaker 10: I am right now.
• 45:26
  Speaker 4: So the first foul ball of your face, what do
• 45:29
  Speaker 4: you think I was crazy?
• 45:31
  Speaker 11: Yeah, that's a little bit b C. Like you can
• 45:34
  Speaker 11: see like a little bit. Yeah that happened.
• 45:37
  Speaker 10: That happened. You have to stay low for a little bit.
• 45:39
  Speaker 3: And then.
• 45:43
  Speaker 10: That's crazy, that's crazy.
• 45:44
  Speaker 3: How about that time, I mean you signed as an
• 45:45
  Speaker 3: infielder and you have a gold glove as a catcher
• 45:47
  Speaker 3: and a very short amount of time, I mean that's
• 45:49
  Speaker 3: gonna make you pretty proud.
• 45:51
  Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure. When I I know
• 45:55
  Speaker 10: it's gonna win, that's I feel a.
• 45:59
  Speaker 11: Little proud of me because I know the world what
• 46:03
  Speaker 11: I put to to be a catcher, to to lead
• 46:08
  Speaker 11: a team to go to the World Series, and I
• 46:12
  Speaker 11: think that's that's what I'm probably I'm probably so and
• 46:16
  Speaker 11: all the stuff, but I have one more team. Like
• 46:20
  Speaker 11: I don't know, if you can see my twenty two
• 46:23
  Speaker 11: years to twenty two before I got trained, the last game,
• 46:26
  Speaker 11: if you see I play, I played. We had a
• 46:30
  Speaker 11: double hitter against Baltimore. I catch the first game of
• 46:36
  Speaker 11: the game and the second game I played left field, second.
• 46:39
  Speaker 10: Man in Thurby. You can that's awesome. Yeah, that's awesome.
• 46:45
  Speaker 10: Yeah yeah, yeah yeah.
• 46:45
  Speaker 4: That's why they traded you, easy utility.
• 46:50
  Speaker 10: But in the next year I win the golode That is.
• 46:54
  Speaker 4: That's what do you think when you got traded?
• 46:56
  Speaker 5: Because I know Toronto fans to say that was one
• 46:58
  Speaker 5: of their word trades they've ever made. Not nothing against
• 47:01
  Speaker 5: Dalton var Show, but they got you gold Glover and
• 47:04
  Speaker 5: they got Gurriel who's a very unbelievable player and hit
• 47:08
  Speaker 5: her big clutch.
• 47:09
  Speaker 4: So what do you think when you got traded.
• 47:13
  Speaker 11: I always think like when they called me, like was
• 47:17
  Speaker 11: December twenty three, Rossanski called me for give me the.
• 47:22
  Speaker 10: The the Americ Christman. That was my Yeah, for sure,
• 47:28
  Speaker 10: that was my my first time in the States.
• 47:32
  Speaker 11: And yeah, no in the in the big League. And
• 47:34
  Speaker 11: I thought it he gonna give me that. And he
• 47:37
  Speaker 11: tells me, hey, you in for trade, so to both
• 47:41
  Speaker 11: to Diamondbacks.
• 47:42
  Speaker 10: And I said wow, and he'd believe me. But like
• 47:45
  Speaker 10: he just trained me, just trained me. But it's good, good,
• 47:50
  Speaker 10: I think. Yeah, and.
• 47:53
  Speaker 11: And and the divas give me the opportunity to be
• 48:00
  Speaker 11: behind the play every day and that's what I'm so
• 48:02
  Speaker 11: happy for this thing. And I feel like I'm a home.
