1:18
Speaker 2: Welcome in the beginning of another week of the ben
1:23
Speaker 2: Mahlor Show. We are in the air everywhere, heavy a
1:29
Speaker 2: slugfest as we talk in the darkest hour, coast to coast,
1:35
Speaker 2: border to border and beyond on the mast and superabundantly
1:39
Speaker 2: powerful microphones of FSR amminating live from the poll as
1:46
Speaker 2: we pull an all nighter from the Fox Sports Radio
1:49
Speaker 2: studios as approved by Perrito. This portion of the Ben
1:53
Speaker 2: Malor Show on Fox made possible in part by our
1:56
Speaker 2: friends at Tireraq. For over forty years, that's two generations,
2:01
Speaker 2: Tiraq has been helping customers find the right tires for how,
2:04
Speaker 2: what and where they drive, ship fast and freeback by
2:08
Speaker 2: free road hazard protection with convenient installation options.
2:14
Speaker 1: Like mobile tire installation. Alf's a big fan of that.
2:17
Speaker 1: Alf who loves the mail bag on the Fifth Hour
2:21
Speaker 1: podcast not so much though Fergdock did not send a
2:24
Speaker 1: letter in this week, so maybe he's not as big
2:26
Speaker 1: a fan. But tire iraq dot com the way tire
2:29
Speaker 1: buying should be and very exciting, very exciting. So our
2:33
Speaker 1: lead this hour as we begin the brand new week
2:36
Speaker 1: a story. I'm told I have to start with his story.
2:40
Speaker 1: Everyone wants to know what I think if they start,
2:42
Speaker 1: because my opinion matters, So we'll start in Los Angeles.
2:47
Speaker 1: The fourth of July weekend has come and gone. The
2:50
Speaker 1: pyrotechnic shows have ended, although I did see some fireworks
2:54
Speaker 1: on the way into the studio, so they're still going
2:56
Speaker 1: on in many places. But the cheating a yes, one
3:01
Speaker 1: one thousand and two. One thousand holes were stopping by
3:05
Speaker 1: SoCal and they monster mashed the cheaters against the Dodgers
3:10
Speaker 1: this weekend. There was a lot of joy, a lot
3:13
Speaker 1: of euphoria among the fan base. There those that support
3:19
Speaker 1: the vermin of baseball, the deplorable, cheating scumbags of Major
3:26
Speaker 1: League Baseball. So I don't know if you watched it,
3:28
Speaker 1: and if you probably didn't because you're not doing things
3:30
Speaker 1: where you sit and watch a stupid game on television,
3:33
Speaker 1: because you know, stuff going on holiday weekend, spend time
3:35
Speaker 1: with friends and family and all that. Well, it started
3:38
Speaker 1: out within eighteen to one annihilation. It was to the
3:44
Speaker 1: point where Oral Herscheizer Dodger broadcasters said, well, maybe these
3:48
Speaker 1: guys are cheating again, and it certainly looked that way,
3:52
Speaker 1: and it'd be hard to argue they weren't. It would
3:55
Speaker 1: be hard to argue and have any other point than
3:57
Speaker 1: they Why were they not doing again? They did it,
3:59
Speaker 1: but four they got away with it. So that was
4:02
Speaker 1: on Friday, continued through Sunday, the old sweep. So let
4:05
Speaker 1: us discuss the question. And here it is for the
4:09
Speaker 1: estem panther. You have a message for the Houston fans
4:13
Speaker 1: who seem to be orgasmic over beating up the Dodgers
4:19
Speaker 1: over the weekend. So my thoughts on this. I've got
4:22
Speaker 1: big tobacco, pepe le pew and creampuff, and we will
4:28
Speaker 1: combine all of these things together and we are going
4:31
Speaker 1: to have a Smorgesborg, is what we're going to have.
4:34
Speaker 1: So a do I have a message? Of course we
4:37
Speaker 1: have message. We have a big message for the Houston fans.
4:41
Speaker 1: And we've been on there for years on the radio
4:44
Speaker 1: dial there in Houston. In fact, we happen to be
4:46
Speaker 1: on the Astro station, which is quite quite amusing, but
4:50
Speaker 1: absolutely so for mister Irrigation and o Cho Texto and
4:56
Speaker 1: Alex the Cinical and Ivan the Terrible and all these
4:59
Speaker 1: other characters who either used to live in Houston or
5:02
Speaker 1: live there now or Houston adjacent and all that stuff.
5:05
Speaker 1: All you other blokes you know who you are. Okay,
5:09
Speaker 1: we don't give a rats ass that the Houston Astros
5:17
Speaker 1: just swept the Dodgers. They can go sweep the Padres,
5:20
Speaker 1: they can sweep the Tigers, they can go sweep the
5:22
Speaker 1: twenty seven freakin' Yankees for all I care. It doesn't
5:24
Speaker 1: matter to me. It doesn't matter to me. They can
5:27
Speaker 1: reincarnate Babe Ruth and they can strike Babe Ruth out
5:31
Speaker 1: every time. It doesn't matter because it's turd polishing is
5:36
Speaker 1: what it is, right, and you're not supposed to be
5:38
Speaker 1: able to polish a turd. And the Astros are turds,
5:43
Speaker 1: is what they are. And you can try all you
5:46
Speaker 1: want to rewrite history, right, try to rewrite history because
5:51
Speaker 1: you want a few games in July of twenty twenty five. Congratulations,
5:57
Speaker 1: whoa oh man, some games in July twenty twenty five.
6:03
Speaker 1: Who cares? Right? Seriously? Right this weekend? It changes nothing.
6:10
Speaker 1: I know that's tough for you to handle. I know
6:14
Speaker 1: you're oh, this guy's just a gas bagy. I speak
6:18
Speaker 1: the gospel, Okay, I speak the gospel. I'll tell you why.
6:23
Speaker 1: Here's why. Because in twenty seventeen, No, I've not forgotten
6:26
Speaker 1: in twenty seventeen. And let me say this slowly for
6:30
Speaker 1: those of you in the back of the room that
6:33
Speaker 1: are hung over from your holiday weekend. Here all right,
6:37
Speaker 1: the Houston eh Shrows cheated capital see capital see cheated.
6:46
Speaker 1: They didn't bend the rules. Wasn't just a little bend
6:49
Speaker 1: of the rules? No, no, no, no no, they didn't
6:51
Speaker 1: find some competitive edge. Some of you a holes like
6:55
Speaker 1: they say that, Oh, it was just a competitive edge bend.
6:57
Speaker 1: Why are you such an a schmock? No, they chat dad,
7:02
Speaker 1: chake dad, fall stop. That's it. C h ea te
7:09
Speaker 1: day chant it. They cheated. They banged on trash cans,
7:14
Speaker 1: bite bind in the freaking World Series. They did it.
7:20
Speaker 1: It was in the World Series video. Major League Baseball
7:23
Speaker 1: is so stupid. They put this in the Major League
7:26
Speaker 1: Baseball produced World Series video, the table that they used
7:30
Speaker 1: to send the signs in to the batters. Okay, they cheated,
7:36
Speaker 1: and it was in the World Series video from twenty seventeen.
7:39
Speaker 1: They were banging on trash cans like a toddler on
7:42
Speaker 1: a candy high, right, a sugar rush and all that.
7:47
Speaker 1: They used all kinds of illicit methods to steal signs
7:53
Speaker 1: that year, like a kleptomaniac walking through the Astros souvenir
7:57
Speaker 1: shop and just I'll take a hat, I'll throw that
8:00
Speaker 1: down my shorts. I'll take a shirt, I'll shove that up, Mike,
8:03
Speaker 1: Mike Keysterer, whatever I have to do. And they did it, all,
8:09
Speaker 1: all of it, all of it to get a worthless,
8:13
Speaker 1: worthless hunk of metal. It's called a commissioner of Major
8:17
Speaker 1: League Baseball. Just a worthless hunk of metal. And when
8:22
Speaker 1: you think about it, there's a lot of parts to this. Obviously.
8:26
Speaker 1: The reason that I have not forgotten and we'll never
8:30
Speaker 1: forget is for the most part, they got away with it.
8:33
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball endorsed it. They indorsed cheating, which is
8:36
Speaker 1: odd because I see them punishing, you know, random baseball
8:39
Speaker 1: players for involving being involved in gambling. Uh. Some no
8:44
Speaker 1: name pitcher for the Cleveland Guardians is currently on time
8:46
Speaker 1: out because he could have been involved in gambling. But
8:50
Speaker 1: a team cheating in the World Series, We're good, We're good. Nah,
8:57
Speaker 1: We're fine. And the reason that happened in is because
9:00
Speaker 1: baseball has a leadership vacuum. They have a spineless, toothless
9:05
Speaker 1: commissioner who is still the commissioner of Major League Baseball.
9:09
Speaker 1: No vacated title for a team that cheated in the
9:12
Speaker 1: World Series. No postseason ban, no player got suspended who
9:17
Speaker 1: took part in illicit activity. In fact, the only few
9:21
Speaker 1: people that got punished, they're all back. They're all back
9:24
Speaker 1: in baseball, right, all of them. The manager of the
9:27
Speaker 1: De George Tigers right now, was the manager when the Tiger,
9:30
Speaker 1: when the a holes were cheating there in Houston. He's
9:33
Speaker 1: now managing the Tigers. So now we can't even enjoy
9:36
Speaker 1: what they're doing in Detroit because it's sullied because of
9:40
Speaker 1: the manager. And I go down the list, right, and
9:43
Speaker 1: it was a not even a slap on the wrist.
9:46
Speaker 1: That's what even count a slap. You hit the wrist.
9:50
Speaker 1: It hurts a little bit. That wasn't even that. Rob Manford,
9:55
Speaker 1: the toothless, gutless commissioner of Major League Baseball, what an
9:58
Speaker 1: embarrassment eight years out nothing. In fact, Baseball ran interference
10:04
Speaker 1: for the schmucks. They ran interference. They ran a PR campaign,
10:09
Speaker 1: a PR campaign. Now, when I was a little kid,
10:12
Speaker 1: my dad tried to get me don't smoke cigarettes. When
10:14
Speaker 1: I was a kid, everyone's smoking ciaret. My Dad's like,
10:16
Speaker 1: don't smoke cigarettes. Might am I big tobacco.
10:19
Speaker 3: Right.
10:20
Speaker 1: What Major League Baseball did to cover for the Asstros
10:23
Speaker 1: cheating is next level. It's like big tobaccos and aw
10:27
Speaker 1: cigarettes aren't bad for you, They're good. Go for it,
10:30
Speaker 1: you know, smoke your lungs out. They ran interference for
10:33
Speaker 1: the scoundrel. And so because of a random series July
10:38
Speaker 1: fourth weekend where the a holes beat the Dodgers, the
10:43
Speaker 1: good guys three games in a row, Like somehow that
10:46
Speaker 1: changes something. No, it just reinforces what we all we
10:50
Speaker 1: already knew truth justice in the in the American way
10:54
Speaker 1: of fighting the a holes from Houston. And how are
10:57
Speaker 1: things looking, By the way, how are things looking? For
11:00
Speaker 1: the face, the duplicitor face, it's a small face. It's
11:05
Speaker 1: a little face of the Astros. That would be Jose
11:10
Speaker 1: al Tuba, better known by his forever nickname al Boove.
11:16
Speaker 1: Hey up, pant him down, check him for the buzzer. Yeah,
11:20
Speaker 1: so he is forever branded no matter what he does.
11:24
Speaker 1: And he only got a couple of years left in baseball.
11:25
Speaker 1: But al boub has been branded as the guy who
11:29
Speaker 1: wouldn't let his jersey get ripped off after a walk
11:34
Speaker 1: off homer in the American League Championship Series in twenty seventeen,
11:38
Speaker 1: a year that he won the most bogus MVP award
11:40
Speaker 1: of all time. The little fella, he said at the time,
11:43
Speaker 1: I'm shy. I'm shy. My wife doesn't like that. Yeah,
11:51
Speaker 1: and if you believe that you are the most gullible
11:54
Speaker 1: man in the world. No, he didn't have the jersey.
11:57
Speaker 1: He want the jersey ripped off because he had a buzzer. Hey,
11:59
Speaker 1: check for the buzzer. Right now, we've heard better excuses. Now,
12:04
Speaker 1: we heard a lot of excuses over these. We have
12:06
Speaker 1: heard better excuses from the guy that gets caught, you know,
12:09
Speaker 1: goes home from the night out with the fellows at
12:11
Speaker 1: the bar, has lipstick all over his collar. There's better
12:13
Speaker 1: excuses from that guy, then the Astros with al Bouve
12:19
Speaker 1: and the buzzer. Right, and you can win all the
12:22
Speaker 1: games with every game doesn't matter. Right, You can trot
12:26
Speaker 1: out your shiny roster of players there and all this
12:29
Speaker 1: analytics department brag about that flex and all that, and
12:33
Speaker 1: your smug little smirks you a holes. It changes nothing, right,
12:38
Speaker 1: because Jose al Bouve is the pepe Le pew of baseball.
12:45
Speaker 1: Pe Yeah, what stinks, al Boo, that's who stinks. He'll
12:50
Speaker 1: never outrun it. It doesn't matter what the man does.
12:55
Speaker 1: The real ones know the truth. The real ones know
12:58
Speaker 1: the truth. You can't run that stench. You can't do it.
13:03
Speaker 1: Can't do it. You're not fast enough. And when people
13:07
Speaker 1: say Houston Astros, they don't think of greatness. They don't
13:13
Speaker 1: think of a sustained dynasty. They think another d word, disgrace,
13:19
Speaker 1: because that is what that franchise is. So go ahead,
13:23
Speaker 1: Astro fanboys, celebrate, Go got god, go crazy, knock yourself out.
13:28
Speaker 1: And I understand. You beat a real team, the Dodgers. Congratulations.
13:31
Speaker 1: Probably cheated while you were doing it, because that's what
13:33
Speaker 1: you do. Why would you stop? You got away with
13:34
Speaker 1: it baseball in Doorstead. They ran a big tobacco type
13:37
Speaker 1: campaign to cover for you, So why would you not
13:39
Speaker 1: keep doing it? Right? Nothing has changed, nothing has changed,
13:45
Speaker 1: no matter how many wins, go back to the World
13:49
Speaker 1: Series again, It doesn't matter, right, doesn't matter. You aren't
13:53
Speaker 1: forever known as a team that needed a trash can
13:57
Speaker 1: a trash can to beat the Dodger Wiels and oh,
14:01
Speaker 1: by the way, didn't even outscore the Dodgers, and even
14:04
Speaker 1: go to seven games to win the World Stairs Walt cheating.
14:07
Speaker 1: Think about how much better the twenty seventeen Dodger team
14:10
Speaker 1: was when the Houston team. The Houston team was, they
14:13
Speaker 1: were cheating, They knew what was coming on most of
14:16
Speaker 1: the pitchers, and the Dodgers took him to a game seven.
14:20
Speaker 1: How embarrassing would have been a sweep without that would
14:24
Speaker 1: have been a sweep. It's gotta suck to if you're
14:28
Speaker 1: an Albouve fan. Albuve is not going to the Hall
14:30
Speaker 1: of Fame. He's not. He's not. They won't put in
14:35
Speaker 1: Barry Bonds. They won't put in Roger Clements, those guys,
14:39
Speaker 1: I'd put them in instead of Albouve. Maybe when he's dead,
14:43
Speaker 1: like Pete Rose, they'll put him in the Hall of Fame,
14:45
Speaker 1: all right now, last word, So turning the page from that,
14:48
Speaker 1: we had a shakeup in the managerial ranks and the
14:52
Speaker 1: front office of Major League Baseball. The guillotine, the hammer
14:56
Speaker 1: of death came down, well baseball death. Ind see what
15:01
Speaker 1: is your knee jerk reaction on your knee jerk reaction
15:04
Speaker 1: to the Nationals saying bye bye and firing Davy Martinez
15:09
Speaker 1: the manager and the GM, Mike Rizzo, who really heroes
15:14
Speaker 1: to us. You might remember they beat the cheating a
15:16
Speaker 1: holes in a World Series years ago. Been many years
15:19
Speaker 1: since then, So my reaction is what took so long? Right,
15:24
Speaker 1: as far as the Nationals are concerned, the Nats have
15:27
Speaker 1: been a hot mess. Now we don't talk about the Nationals.
15:29
Speaker 1: Why would we, We want people to actually listen. But
15:31
Speaker 1: the Nationals have been a hot mess, plain and simple.
15:34
Speaker 1: They're so bad? How bad are they? Even ostrich Ant,
15:38
Speaker 1: who lives in DC and drives a bus around the
15:40
Speaker 1: dcra he got a good job, right union job. He
15:43
Speaker 1: won't even watch the Nationals. That's how much they sucked, right,
15:46
Speaker 1: And you think about the Nationals, both these guys, Rizzo
15:51
Speaker 1: and Martinez, the GM and the manager are past their
15:54
Speaker 1: expiration date. And that World Series they won, while it
15:57
Speaker 1: was glorious and we enjoyed it, it was six years ago,
16:00
Speaker 1: and the Nationals have been stumbling and bumbling the desert
16:05
Speaker 1: of mediocrity without any water ever since then? How bad
16:10
Speaker 1: has it been? Since the high water mark the twenty
16:12
Speaker 1: nineteen World Series, the miraculous World Series run the team
16:18
Speaker 1: from the greater DC area, there has posted I believe
16:21
Speaker 1: five straight losing seasons, and they are all but guaranteed
16:26
Speaker 1: to have number six year and twenty twenty five. And
16:29
Speaker 1: the Nationals Ballpark is not the factory of sadness. It's
16:32
Speaker 1: the museum of misery, is what it is. They're watching
16:35
Speaker 1: the Nationals who have lost that two. They don't have
16:38
Speaker 1: that natitude anymore. I don't know where it went. Davy
16:42
Speaker 1: Martinez his comments, that's the big story here. He made
16:45
Speaker 1: some comments. We talked about them briefly on the show.
16:48
Speaker 1: Davy Martinez defended his coaching staff with the Nationals. Now
16:52
Speaker 1: to say that just ruffled some feathers, that's a bit
16:55
Speaker 1: of an understatement. It's a bit of an understatement. He
16:59
Speaker 1: actually apparently to the clubhouse, the softies in the Washington
17:04
Speaker 1: National Clubhouse. Not only are they bad baseball, they can't
17:07
Speaker 1: take criticism. Now again, Davy Martinez said, it's never on coaching,
17:12
Speaker 1: he said at the time. Never, It's always on the players,
17:16
Speaker 1: Davey Martinez said, And that is all she wrote. That
17:21
Speaker 1: is all she wrote. Those cream puffs better known as
17:26
Speaker 1: Nationals players the cream plus she changed her name from
17:28
Speaker 1: Nationals to creampuffs, looks like they ripped off a drug
17:33
Speaker 1: stores logo anyway with the w there. So the Creampuff
17:38
Speaker 1: players did not appreciate that Davey Martinez put the almighty
17:43
Speaker 1: finger blame pointed that right in their direction, and so
17:46
Speaker 1: the players were shocked, dismayed, bewildered and could not handle it.
17:50
Speaker 1: They were pissed off, and so he lost the clubous
17:53
Speaker 1: Now Jim might Rizzo. We famously fought with him years
17:56
Speaker 1: ago over the usage of Stephen Strassburg. Might remember the
18:01
Speaker 1: Nationals baby Steven Strasburg. So he could turn out to
18:05
Speaker 1: retire early anyway, they were saving him so his career
18:09
Speaker 1: would be cut short. So he's been with the Nationals
18:13
Speaker 1: for almost twenty years in the front office. He was
18:17
Speaker 1: also the general manager over the last almost almost twelve
18:23
Speaker 1: full seasons. I think it was sometime in twenty thirteen,
18:26
Speaker 1: and he survived several managers before Davey Martinez and him
18:30
Speaker 1: took their exit strategy there and won the World Series.
18:34
Speaker 1: So you say a successful one. They did win the
18:36
Speaker 1: World Series Cup. I think it was three NL East
18:38
Speaker 1: titles under Mike Rizzo. But right now, when you know
18:42
Speaker 1: your time's up, when you've been there for as long
18:45
Speaker 1: as Rizzo's been there, and your baseball team is closer
18:49
Speaker 1: to the Rockies than it is to a playoff spot,
18:51
Speaker 1: so good luck on that. And player development, well, none
18:56
Speaker 1: of the guys the Nationals draft turned out to be
18:58
Speaker 1: all that great. They got from the Padres for Juan Soto.
19:02
Speaker 1: Those guys seem to know what they're doing. But they
19:06
Speaker 1: to be fair, they do have a cheap owner. I
19:09
Speaker 1: thought the national is gonna be sold a couple of
19:10
Speaker 1: years ago, and they haven't been sold the same ownership
19:13
Speaker 1: groups there. It's been three years. I know, it takes
19:16
Speaker 1: a long time to sell a multi billion dollar sports entity.
19:20
Speaker 1: It's been been a while, so they got cheap ownership,
19:23
Speaker 1: but there's no excuse for the crappy product that is
19:25
Speaker 1: on the field there. You know, even you know youa
19:27
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay and some of these other teams that don't
19:29
Speaker 1: spend money, they still put a team that's somewhat competitive
19:32
Speaker 1: on the field. The Nationals are on pace to win
19:34
Speaker 1: sixty eight games, by the way this year, and they
19:37
Speaker 1: have no pipeline. They need a plunger. The pipelines clogged there.
19:41
Speaker 1: For the Nationals, it's an unstable franchise. See if that
19:46
Speaker 1: Learner family finally sells the Nationals here. But man, so
19:51
Speaker 1: they just gave the mass extermination to everyone. Now he's
19:55
Speaker 1: had a good job. Well, there's only thirty, right, there's
19:58
Speaker 1: only thirty baseball teams. Thirty two baseball teams, I think
20:01
Speaker 1: it is. So there's there's not that many baseball teams.
20:04
Speaker 1: So that's it, and they pay pretty well. And DC
20:08
Speaker 1: A lot of people like living in DC. If you
20:11
Speaker 1: like hanging out with slimeball politicians and people like that,
20:15
Speaker 1: it's nice. I guess outside DC. I'm Virginia, Maryland, it's
20:17

23:27
Speaker 1: Back to it we go, and Jill writes in a
23:29
Speaker 1: longtime supporter of the show, and she says, if I
23:33
Speaker 1: have gotten over it, why can't you. I'm a Yankee fan. Now, Well, Jill,
23:38
Speaker 1: if you have forgiven the cheating a holes, that shows
23:43
Speaker 1: a character flaw in you, Jill, it's a bad job
23:46
Speaker 1: by you. And to quote one of the great rallies
23:49
Speaker 1: we see all the time every couple of years, right,
23:51
Speaker 1: we see no justice, no peace. Well, there was no
23:54
Speaker 1: justice for what the a holes did. Major League Baseball
23:57
Speaker 1: allowed them to get away with it. So I say,
24:00
Speaker 1: no justice, no peace. And that's the way I choose
24:03
Speaker 1: to live, and I love it. Nature Boy writes and
24:06
Speaker 1: says the cheating little boy kept hitting homers for the
24:09
Speaker 1: Astros this weekend. He also says Manford didn't have any
24:15
Speaker 1: problem with the a holes. We need to just move on.
24:18
Speaker 1: Nothing to see here is what he said. That's pretty
24:20
Speaker 1: much what he did. Nature Boy says, if Altube's wife
24:24
Speaker 1: is okay with cheating, we can forget about justice for
24:28
Speaker 1: the Astros. Rob Manford approves it as well. Super Market
24:33
Speaker 1: Steve writes in he says, I thought about calling in
24:35
Speaker 1: tonight busting your balls about the Dodgers for getting swept
24:39
Speaker 1: by the Astros. But seeing as my Yankees needed the
24:43
Speaker 1: umpire's help to avoid another sweep against the match, I
24:46
Speaker 1: think I'll shut up tonight. Sit that one out, Just
24:49
Speaker 1: sit that one out. Ostrich Ant is up late listening.
24:53
Speaker 1: He says, Hey, Mallard, not only will I not watch
24:56
Speaker 1: the Nationals, I also won't watch the Wizards. Don't blame me.
25:01
Speaker 1: You likely did not watch the team formerly known as
25:04
Speaker 1: the Redskins up until like last year when they finally
25:07
Speaker 1: figured things out. Eugene in Chicago rights and says, what
25:10
Speaker 1: happened with the Dodger pitching staff? Pitching staff? They're they're
25:15
Speaker 1: all hanging out on vacation, that schmuck Blake Snell. But
25:19
Speaker 1: who could have had the foresight, Eugene in Chicago, who
25:23
Speaker 1: could have had the ability to see into the future,
25:27
Speaker 1: like the great Nostradamas and friend of Nostradinas, yours truly
25:30
Speaker 1: to say, Well, maybe you don't add Blake Snell because
25:33
Speaker 1: the guy's a loser. Okay, the guys a schmuck Blake Snell.
25:37
Speaker 1: He's made two starts this year. Blake Snell their big
25:42
Speaker 1: offseason edition and their big addition the previous year a
25:46
Speaker 1: couple years back was Tyler glassnew who is the most
25:50
Speaker 1: appropriately named pitcher in baseball. The man is made out
25:53
Speaker 1: of glass, and the Dodgers threw money. It's like they
25:57
Speaker 1: went to the strip club and they were just tossed,
26:00
Speaker 1: making it rain for these two dopes who have done
26:04
Speaker 1: nothing as Dodgers except take money from the Dodgers and
26:08
Speaker 1: not produce on the field. It's embarrassing, absolutely embarrassing. Terry
26:14
Speaker 1: in England says, where are the classic A hole drops?
26:18
Speaker 1: What the f is going on? Why are they Bennetts
26:20
Speaker 1: so blah blah blah blah. Well, I've tried. I've given up, Terry.
26:23
Speaker 1: I've tried to let them know what to play and
26:25
Speaker 1: what not to play. They choose not to play it.
26:27
Speaker 1: So I'm going to do the show the way I
26:28
Speaker 1: want to do the show without the drops. A Boso,
26:30
Speaker 1: the district attorney, says, I wonder if the NAT's TV
26:33
Speaker 1: deal expiring has something to do with the decision to
26:36
Speaker 1: clean house. Also, maybe they wouldn't be in the position
26:40
Speaker 1: if ownership let Rizzo keep Bryce Harper and Juan Soto
26:44
Speaker 1: years ago, says Boso, the district attorney. Aileen says, excellent monologue,
26:50
Speaker 1: Never forget She points out who else we have? Matt
26:53
Speaker 1: writes in can we get on the topic of how
26:57
Speaker 1: Suzuki has been robbed in broad daylight? I have a
27:00
Speaker 1: much deserved All Star reserve spot. I don't really give
27:04
Speaker 1: that much attention to the All Star reserves because the
27:08
Speaker 1: players don't care about the All Star Game. That's why
27:11
Speaker 1: they had to put the rule in years ago. Or
27:15
Speaker 1: this time it matters and other players hate the y'all.
27:17
Speaker 1: I'll bet you Clayton Kershaw. I'll give you an example, Matt,
27:20
Speaker 1: so that they now Major League Baseball announced I guess
27:23
Speaker 1: they've done this before, like the legends of the game.
27:25
Speaker 1: They add someone who's not deserving of being an All
27:28
Speaker 1: Star this year, but because of their career achievements, they
27:32
Speaker 1: put them on the All Star team. And Clayton Kershaw
27:35
Speaker 1: is a great example of a guy who was so
27:38
Speaker 1: excited about being named to the All Star Team he
27:40
Speaker 1: refused to speak to the media about it on Sunday,
27:43
Speaker 1: likely because I'm guessing he had a vacation planned for
27:47
Speaker 1: All Star weekend and now he's got to bring his
27:50
Speaker 1: fat ass to Atlanta instead of going to a nice
27:53
Speaker 1: tropical vacation somewhere. So that's just my assumption. Maybe Kershaw
27:57
Speaker 1: was so verclemp with emotion. He did not want to
28:00
Speaker 1: talk about it. But my god, all let's go to
28:02
Speaker 1: the phones and let's see who do we have eeny
28:04
Speaker 1: meany miney mo. Let's say hello to Tony in the
28:09
Speaker 1: Bay area. What's going on? Tony? Welcome?
28:12
Speaker 4: Hey man.
28:13
Speaker 3: David Leaner bre so bad. Even kobeas she was like, God, damn.
28:20
Speaker 1: No, thank you. Tony's a quick drive by, drop a
28:25
Speaker 1: line and then and then move on. So I'm pretty
28:29
Speaker 1: sure now that the Dodgers are in Milwaukee right now.
28:32
Speaker 1: They play the brew Crew this week, so I'm pretty
28:34
Speaker 1: sure ifsay is not not listening, Oho, there's not much
28:38
Speaker 1: open on a Sunday night in uh in Milwaukee. Having
28:43
Speaker 1: been to Milwauk unless they changed it when I was
28:45
Speaker 1: there years ago, not much open late at night. They
28:49
Speaker 1: pretty much roll up Milwaukee at There's a couple of
28:52
Speaker 1: bars open, but that's that's about it. I want a
28:54
Speaker 1: bite to eat. Good luck. Malaprop guy says fer Dogs
29:00
Speaker 1: seems to have gone missing for the last week or so.
29:03
Speaker 1: Right after it was announced that a man from Fortune
29:07
Speaker 1: was arrested for selling illegal fireworks. I hain't even at fullertune.
29:12
Speaker 1: Also perhaps a coincidence. He also disappeared about the same
29:16
Speaker 1: time live reads have ceased on the show, says Malard
29:21
Speaker 1: Propkat get to the bottom of that. Billy writes in
29:25
Speaker 1: from parts on O and he says, Blake Snell and
29:27
Speaker 1: Tyler Glass, now we're only good in Tampa Bay because
29:29
Speaker 1: of coaching. Now they can't pitch worth anything. Well, Blake
29:34
Speaker 1: Snell's a He's known as being a very soft, very
29:39
Speaker 1: soft pitcher and does not have intestinal fortitude to made
29:45
Speaker 1: out of. I ain't pitch unless I get mine.
29:48
Speaker 4: Bro.
29:48
Speaker 1: That used to be a drop we used to play
29:49
Speaker 1: on the show back when we had drops. Let's go
29:51
Speaker 1: to Andrew in Baker's what's going on? Andrew? Welcome?
29:56
Speaker 3: What's up? Ben? How you been.
29:59
Speaker 1: Andrew? You're back. You disappeared for a while, but you
30:02
Speaker 1: returned to the show. Why are we so lucky to
30:04
Speaker 1: have you back on the show?
30:05
Speaker 3: Andre, Well, I'm always listening, but or not always but
30:10
Speaker 3: most of the time. Yeah, catching you, But I had
30:12
Speaker 3: to switch my hours up a little bit and sleep
30:14
Speaker 3: at night.
30:14
Speaker 1: Are you working in the dreaded day shift?
30:16
Speaker 4: Now?
30:17
Speaker 3: No? No, just I moved into a house with other people.
30:21
Speaker 1: So I had to, Okay, you have to be polite
30:24
Speaker 1: and other people do not like you calling in and
30:27
Speaker 1: talking wake them up. I understand.
30:31
Speaker 3: Okay, So number one, number one, Yes, number one. I
30:36
Speaker 3: was wondering why you didn't have Clayton Kershaw as your
30:41
Speaker 3: first hour monologue on the night that he got three
30:44
Speaker 3: thousand strikeouts.
30:47
Speaker 1: Because I don't. I'm not. I don't care. That's I don't.
30:51
Speaker 1: It doesn't do anything for me. I didn't get a
30:54
Speaker 1: chubby like everyone else in the LA media. I mean,
30:56
Speaker 1: what do you want me to do? Don't you want
30:57
Speaker 1: me to lie and pretend? Oh my god, this is
30:59
Speaker 1: the greatest world. But I think of Clayton Kershaw, I
31:02
Speaker 1: think of him writing the vomit comment in big games
31:04
Speaker 1: as a Dodger. That's what I think of Clayton Kershaw.
31:07
Speaker 1: I don't think of three thousand strike it's a lifetime
31:08
Speaker 1: achievement award. But when I think of the career of
31:11
Speaker 1: Clayton Shirshaw, I think of him gagging in the biggest games.
31:14
Speaker 1: That's what I think of Kershaw.
31:16
Speaker 3: Well, maybe people were cheating in the.
31:19
Speaker 1: Playoffs, Okay, Well, what about the rest of the years.
31:21
Speaker 1: Were they cheating? Every year Kershaw was pitching in the
31:23
Speaker 1: playoffs or is it I know twenty throw away twenty seventeen.
31:26
Speaker 1: What about the other ones?
31:28
Speaker 3: Okay, but I haven't know what about the other one?
31:30
Speaker 1: Seriously, what about the other ones? Everyone only when Kershaw
31:32
Speaker 1: was pitching they were cheating?
31:35
Speaker 3: Well they won in twenty twenty. So but number two,
31:40
Speaker 3: you can't. I got to stick up for David Basset
31:43
Speaker 3: and asking why.
31:44
Speaker 1: Would you stick up with that? For assay, he's a
31:46
Speaker 1: shill for the Dodgers. Why would you? Why would you
31:48
Speaker 1: stick up for Well?
31:50
Speaker 3: Are you not just bitter because you got kicked out
31:54
Speaker 3: of the stadium because all of the media for show?
31:57
Speaker 1: He No, I was fighting with that. Say before that,
32:01
Speaker 1: I think it's embarrassing for the Dodger pr Department. I've
32:03
Speaker 1: said that they're frauds over there. But that's fine, Okay.
32:07
Speaker 3: Well, he's alright with me as far as I can do.
32:09
Speaker 1: Okay, So you liked him and they when he licks
32:11
Speaker 1: the players toes, you enjoy that. You think that's pretty good.
32:14
Speaker 3: He's funny, he's good.
32:16
Speaker 1: How about when he like makes breakfast for Blake SNeW
32:18
Speaker 1: You think that's good? You enjoy that.
32:20
Speaker 3: I hadn't heard about that.
32:21
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, all right, thank you, all right, I'm glad
32:23
Speaker 1: you still suck as a call though your Femi writes
32:27
Speaker 1: in from Chicago, says a Mallard a plus and a
32:30
Speaker 1: spicy tuna role on the opening mallar monologue, All Star
32:34
Speaker 1: Game is a joke for robbing the Cubs superstar Suzuki.
32:38
Speaker 1: The entire NL lineup should be Cubs. We there you go,
32:43
Speaker 1: Nature boy says, I say, never admitted that Blake Snell
32:46
Speaker 1: has been a bus so far? What a kiss astro? Yeah,
32:51
Speaker 1: now I know, and you heard that, nature boy. The
32:54
Speaker 1: most obvious thing to say is at this point, what
32:58
Speaker 1: is it what we have to worry about today? And
32:59
Speaker 1: we don't know what's gonna happen in the future, but
33:00
Speaker 1: you worry about what has happened. And so as of
33:03
Speaker 1: this moment, I asked. I was doing some local stuff
33:06
Speaker 1: LA local radio this week and we had had Schmuck
33:09
Speaker 1: Vassa on Who's a dodger of propagandas and I was like, hey, listen,
33:13
Speaker 1: I mean, just this guy's been a bust and he
33:14
Speaker 1: would not admit it. Blake Snell a total bust. The
33:19
Speaker 1: most easiest thing you could possibly sell tell anyone is
33:22
Speaker 1: that Blake Snell has been bad at his job because
33:25
Speaker 1: he hasn't shown up. He's gone a wall. He's at
33:28
Speaker 1: the end of his problem. That's the thing is only
33:30
Speaker 1: gonna get worse. Blake Snell's thirty two. Your athletic prime
33:34
Speaker 1: ends at age thirty two. It's only gonna get worse.
33:37
Speaker 1: He's made two starts as a Dodger. We are now
33:41
Speaker 1: into July. The All Star Game is right around the corner.
33:45
Speaker 1: He's made two starts. That's it. And it was a
33:48
Speaker 1: simple it was. It was a layup question. Wouldn't answer,
33:51
Speaker 1: it would not answer. It wouldn't do it? All right,
33:54
Speaker 1: is a Ben Mahler show. Time now for the play
33:57
Speaker 1: of the day. The Yankees have sucked for the last
34:01
Speaker 1: couple of weeks. Here they got off the schneide and
34:04
Speaker 1: Aaron Judge did hit his thing. Take a list first.
34:07
Speaker 2: Pets from one Dell swing on and driven to the
34:09
Speaker 2: gap lets center field.
34:15
Speaker 1: But Captain rings the bell, two run shot. Yankees having
34:19
Speaker 1: a day. It's five nothing Yankees all right to call
34:24
Speaker 1: there on Yankees Radio. That is the tire Iraq play
34:27
Speaker 1: of the day. Yankees held on barely beat the Mets.
34:30
Speaker 1: But for over forty years, ty Iraq has been helping
34:32
Speaker 1: customers find the right tires for how, what and where
34:36
Speaker 1: they drive, ship fast and free back by free road
34:38
Speaker 1: hazard protection with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation
34:43
Speaker 1: tire iraq dot Com The Way Tire Buying show be so.
34:49
Speaker 1: One of the biggest contracts ever handed out by the
34:52
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Pirates. Brian Reynolds. It's outfielder. It's a pretty mediocre
34:57
Speaker 1: player if you asked me. But Brian Reynolds a two.
35:00
Speaker 1: I'm All Star because someone on the Pirates has to
35:01
Speaker 1: make the All Star team. And there's a lot of
35:04
Speaker 1: chatter the Pirates are going to trade him. The deadline
35:07
Speaker 1: is at the end of this month, July thirty first,
35:11
Speaker 1: Today is July seventh for most till July sixth on
35:14
Speaker 1: the West coast, but it's coming up. Trade deadline will
35:16
Speaker 1: be here before you know it. And we are told
35:18
Speaker 1: the Dodgers are on the no trade list. How about
35:23
Speaker 1: Brian Reynolds. Brian Reynolds getting a no trade list? Brian
35:28
Speaker 1: effing Reynolds, hes, I can't that it blows me away
35:32
Speaker 1: that he's on. He's got a list of the teams
35:35
Speaker 1: he will not play for. Reynolds is thirty years old
35:38
Speaker 1: for the Pirates this year, he's hitting two thirty two
35:42
Speaker 1: with ten home runs, and he has been pretty bad
35:46
Speaker 1: all season for the Buckos, and he is likely to
35:49
Speaker 1: be going to be traded. However, unless the Dodgers can
35:53
Speaker 1: give him some extra money, he will not be going there.
35:56
Speaker 1: He has signed all the way through twenty thirties on
35:58
Speaker 1: an eight year contract with a team option for the
36:02
Speaker 1: following year, but Brian Reynolds locked up for the long
36:06
Speaker 1: term for the Pirates. It is the Ben Maler Show.
36:10
Speaker 1: Time now for the who am I?
36:12
Speaker 4: Game?
36:12
Speaker 1: This is where we pretend to be somebody else else.
36:14
Speaker 1: We call it the who am I?
36:15
Speaker 3: Game?
36:15
Speaker 1: So White Sox rookie pitcher Shanes Smith talk about a
36:20
Speaker 1: generic name. So Shane Smith became just the second Rule
36:24
Speaker 1: five draft pick to ever receive an All Star selection.
36:28
