  Speaker 1: A lot to discuss. We have a cash word to
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: give away. That cash word is cash c ash, talk
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: about some redundancy. Yeah right, c a s h. Enter
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: that at ninety three to three KJR dot com for
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: your shot at one thousand dollars in Grand Slam cash.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: Another keyword comes your way at eight o'clock here this morning.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: We also have some headlines to get through as well,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: and they are brought to you by Frost Brewed Corps
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: like Winever in doubt, just choose chill. You can't go wrong.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: NBA playoffs last night, the New York Knicks and the
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Cleveland Cavaliers started Game one of the Eastern Conference Finals.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: Look like the Cavaliers were going to take the game.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: They were up twenty two points in the fourth quarter,
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: but the Knicks just stormed back down the stretch Madison
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: Square Garden, electrified and lo and behold. They sent it
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: to overtime, where they then dominated Jalen Bronson thirty nine
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: points I think thirty eight thirty nine now I'm doing
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: it off memory. One fifteen to one oh four the
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: final score. The Knicks off to way one oh series lead.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: Of course, the Spurs also off to a one oh
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: series lead in the Western Conference Finals. They'll be at
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: OKC again tonight. Five thirty. Is your tip, Victor winbin
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: yam Trying to duplicate one of the great performances in
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: NBA history from Game number one probably won't be the
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: easiest thing to do. We'll discuss that a little bit
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: later on in the show. As the Spurs kind of
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: accomplish what they set out to accomplish in Oklahoma, and
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: so my guess is they get blown out tonight, Well guess,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: but we shall see. Maybe they're just that bad of
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: a matchup for ok C. First pitches at first pitch.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Tip is at five thirty. Stanley Cup playoffs get started
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: their conference finals tonight. Western Conference Finals will play first
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Colorado versus Las Vegas. They will drop the puck there
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: at five thirty. Who do you like Colorado or Vegas
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: to win?
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: Colorado? I'm also rooting for Colorado, rooting for Colorado. It's
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: weird to say, but I'm rooting for Colorado. I think
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: I am too, just because i think they're the better team.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: And I'm kind of sick of Vegas time too.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: And then we've got storm Sun tonight at seven o'clock,
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: and we also have a baseball game to discuss. The
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Mariners were up one to nothing for like thirteen and
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: a half days against the Chicago White Sox last night,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: and yet in the ninth inning the White Sox come
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: up with the right combination of walks hit by pitch
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: Bloopy's crap singles and some backfired strategy to end up
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: winning by a final score of two to one last night.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: So the Mariners cannot make it two in a row
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: against the White Sox. They will play this afternoon at
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: one o'clock at T Mobile. The winner will take the series.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: The Mariners could really use it. They're going to put
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Spencer Spencer Emerson Hancock on the mound against Sean Burke.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: He'll get the start for the White Sox. We've already
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: faced the right hander, so we'll face them again today
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: at one o'clock. So Emerson Hancock versus Sean Burke and
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Matt Brash is expected to be activated from the injury
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: list in time for today's game. That from Jerry yesterday,
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: so that will help the bullpen. But I wouldn't think
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: that Muonios is unavailable even though he's pitched two straight nights,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: and certainly for Rare is not unavailable because that dude's
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: a horse.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, oh my god again last night, right I mentioned
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: yesterday is my one last thing. Is probably one of
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: my favorite relievers right now. God, he's such a dog
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: on the mound. I love watching it. Pitch, love watching it.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: Pitch. You're gonna get the first for Rare Jersey. I
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: really am a for Rare Jersey, honestly, I really am.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: I'm highly debating it right now. When's your birthday? Under
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: June third? All? Literally, there we go, let's go. Gemini's
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: right here. Yeah, there's four. There's five people on the
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: show today, Boger, what's your birthday? Pretty close? Just missed it.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: Wait we get six people on the show, It's just
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: comes a little too crowded. Yeah, just a little bit. Yeah,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: But all right, So we've got a lot to discuss
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: from that game last night. I mean, people losing their
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: minds and understandably so. And so we've already discussed the
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: piggyback experiments kind of what went wrong. We did pick
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: Big Picture at six o'clock this morning, talked a little
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: bit more about it at six point thirty. We're going
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: to talk about it probably throughout the course of the show.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: It's going to be, you know, eighty percent of the
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: show today. But there's so much to break down anders
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: that I think we almost have to kind of run
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: it through some individual filters to discuss what went wrong.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: And again I'm going to have to, I guess, recap
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: this even though most of you out there know exactly
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: what happened. The idea going into this game was we
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: have six starting pitchers, we have five rotation spots. How
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: are we going to get creative and using all of
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: them effectively? And how can we keep all of them
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: stretched out in case we need one because injuries are
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: part of the game. To jump back into the starting
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: rotation in the near future or even the distant future, Well,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: the idea was, we're going to go with this piggyback
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: situation at starting pitching. Now, I'm sure it's happened in
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: baseball history, but I don't remember the last time it did.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: I actually can't give you an example of a Major
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: League Baseball team that went into a Major League Baseball
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: game with the idea that one guy's going to start
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: for four to five innings and the other guy's going
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: to start for three to four innings, and we'll have
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: a bridge guy in between to get us through any
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: kind of middle inning strife that the starter goes through.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: And he never went through any strike and that way
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: we'll bridge the gap. We can rest the bullpen for
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: an entire night. In essence, we can keep Castillo stretched out,
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: we can keep Miller stretched out. Not as Jerry Depoto
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: mentioned during the game on the broadcast, I mean, the
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: ideal scenario is Miller goes five, Castillo goes four, and
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: we win by a comfortable margin and nobody even sweats. Well,
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: we were all sweating all day long. Because our offense
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: can't score against left handers per twenticularly, so it was
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: a one nothing game for eternity, and Bryce Miller was
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: still taken out of the game, even though he had
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: flirted with a no hitter until the sixth. Farrer was
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: used as a successful bridge. Castile was dominant in the seventh,
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: showed a little bit of fraying in the eighth, still
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: got out of it, still got out of it. In
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: the ninth, he put the first two on base without
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: giving up a hit, and that's when Dan Wilson decided
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: to take him out. But of course, so he thought, yeah,
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: the rules didn't allow for back to back mound visits
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: from a coach, so Wilson had to keep Castillo in
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: the game and then he dominates the next hitter he faces.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: And yet Dan had already committed to going to Munos
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: Munos inherits traffic garbage, couple of singles through a drawn
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: in infield because of a really well executed double steal
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: by Will Vinnable, the White Sox manager, and lo and behold,
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: the Mariners lose the game two to one.
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: So much to oh, yes, yeah, lots to discuss, and
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: it's just once again, it sucks that we're not talking
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: about a good pitching performance from Bryce, Jose Ferrera coming
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: in and doing his job. Great pitching performance from Bryce.
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: I think he gave up two hits. I want to
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: say one hit. Yeah, you're right, you're right, two base runners,
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: That's what I was thinking of it. And then Castill
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: look good in the bullpen, like it was like, WHOA,
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: where's this stuff been all year? And especially in that
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: first inning and even the second inning, you know, it
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: gets a couple runners on weird like situation where he
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: reaches for the ground ball and then kind of screws up.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: Cole Young probably would have gotten the out either way.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: It's not like he was getting shell ACKed and then
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: got out of it in that in that eighth inning,
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: and then you know, it feels like the easy decision
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: was to hey, you know, let's let's just go to
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: Muno's here. But this is where we've been discussing most
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: of the day, is like you need to have some
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: adjustment in your head about this experiment.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: So well, that's the conclusion that I have drawn here
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: this morning, is that from an experimental stamp point, it
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: worked well. From a pitching standpoint, as much as people
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: are hating on it. Miller was great, Castile was good.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: Farrere did the job, and Munnos inherited traffic and gave
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: up a couple seeing eye singles through a drawn in
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: infield because Venable pulled off a brilliant double steal that
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: ruined the entire plan for Dan Wilson. But Venable's been
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: ahead of Dan Wilson a step this entire series, like
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: most managers have been. Frankly, but I'll run it through
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: the Dan Wilson filter a little bit later on. I
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: want to run it specifically through the front office filter,
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: because there's just this belief out there that Jerry's in
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: Dan's ear, and you know, he presses green button or
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: red button whenever he has a decision. He wants to
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: make you know, and I, first of all kind of
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: want to clear up what I perceive as to be
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: the process. So there's no doubt Dan did not make
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: the piggyback decision. That was an organizational decision. There were
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: Jerry Epoto, justin Hollander, probably scouts, a couple scouts in there,
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: who knows who else? He Anworth, Dan Wilson, Pete Woodworth
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: were probably all in the meeting at the same time
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: where they went. They decided collectively on the piggyback decision.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: And my guess is if there was any internal conflict,
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Jerry and Justin's opinions prevailed, and if there was a
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: choice between Jerry and Justin, Jerry's opinion prevailed. Okay, So
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: that is the hierarchy, and so that's the way that
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: I'm sure that it went down. And I will say
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: the same thing about the usage of ref Schneider and Joe. Organizationally,
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: they have decided, Hey, we got these guys for a reason.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: We're only in mid May. It's still short sample size,
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: even though it's getting longer, and we got to go
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: with our right because Luke Rayley historically has not hit
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: left handers and Rob Refsneider has dominated them. So even
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: that organizational philosophy, we're going to go with those guys.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: So that does come from above. That is Jerry, Justin
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: and Dan's part of that conversation as well making the decisions.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: From an organizational standpoint, that's where going. So I do
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: believe Jerry and Justin have input on who's going to
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: play that day now, and I've had this confirmed to
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: me by the people involved, over and over, straight to
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: my face on the air, straight to my face off
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: the air. Once the game starts, the lineup is Dan's
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: and all in game decisions are Dans. Now, they did
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: have conversations about how we're going to play strategy. Yes, sure,
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: they all got together and they had conversations about, all right,
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: this is how we see it working. This piggyback thing
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: we're going to do tonight, this is ideally what we
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: want to have happen. This is what we're going to
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: do if there's if there's there are runners on base.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: We don't want Castillo to start to I'm in the
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: middle of an inning. We want him to start an inning,
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: and ideally we want him to close the game because
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: we want to keep him stretched out. But if not,
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: then we're gonna go to Munjos in the ninth if
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: we get the runner into scoring position. And like I said,
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: Will Venable ruined all of that when he pulled off
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: the double steel, because now all of a sudden, we
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: got to draw in the infield and that was as
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: big a play last night as there was so just
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: from a front office perspective, that to me, as I
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: understand it, and I think I'm dead on on this.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: That's how it works. They all discuss the philosophy. Organizational
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: philosophy is Jerry Justin, and then Dan that's the hierarchy,
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: and then Pete that's the hierarchy of those four people
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: in that room. But once the game starts, Dan makes
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: the lineup and Dan makes the end game decisions, with
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: their philosophy going into the game woven into the actual game.
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: So my question to that is how much wiggle room
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: does Dan Wilson have in the middle the game to
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: like we talked about earlier, like, Hey, this, I feel
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: like that this is the right move. I know we
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: talked about only bringing on Munnos if this guy gets
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: in running in scoring position. But we're up one zero,
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: our offense hasn't done anything. Let's just close out this
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: game and feel good about the experiment. Does danme Wilson
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: have the ability to kind of slightly alter the game
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: plan on the fly as.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: I understand it, Yes, he should, now whether or not
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: he feels comfortable doing that after they've had conversations. I mean,
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: Dan Wilson to me looks lost. Yeah, And the more
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: variables you throw at Dan Wilson the more difficulty he
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: seems to have. And so, as I said many times before,
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: I thought last season, at the end of the regular season,
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: when he was just managing to win games like the
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: last month two months, Yeah, that's my only job. Do
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: make the move that helps us win the game. Dan
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: was fine when he got to the playoffs, and they're
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: are more variables involved. I think he struggled, and I
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: think that he struggled more so this year than he
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: struggled at any time last year. And you're trying last
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: night something that's never been done before. To me, the
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: adjustment was Bryce Miller's dominating. And I know there's not
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: a bat phone in there that Dan and Jerry discuss,
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: but if there, maybe there should be one, because maybe
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: that's when Dan says, I know what we discuss. But
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: Bryce is filthy right now, he's at seventy two pitches.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: I'm going to ride with him and then we'll go
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: to Emerson. We'll save Luis in case Emerson needs him tomorrow.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: And I don't see anything wrong with skipping Castillo entirely.
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: Thirty two, thirty three year old starting pitcher could probably
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: use this. I mean, sometimes they look for areas to
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: give them extra rest. Why couldn't we use that Dodgers
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: do that all the time last night and just let
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: Bryce ride it out since he was on fire and
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: was at seventy two pitches. But that decision wasn't made.
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: I think in Dan's head, we had this discussion, this
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: is what we're going to do. We got Murakami coming up,
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: I got a lefty loosened up in the bullpen. We're
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: gonna go to Ferrer and then we'll start Castillo in
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: the next inning. From an experimental standpoint, they experimented last night,
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: did and some of it worked out really well. But
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: I think what they did learn last night is one game,
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: one run differences. Everything goes out the window if it's
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: a one run I hope this is the conclusion that
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: they drew after the game. If it's a one run game,
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: we gotta go with Fiel, we gotta go with Gut
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: and if Bryce Miller is untouchable, we stick with Bryce Miller.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: And Forrere, I don't care if he got loosened up
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: or not. We didn't need to go to him last night. Great,
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: he's all that much better the next day. And if
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: it's a one run game, I know we committed verbally
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: to Castillo going a great length, but there's nothing wrong
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: with him just going two innings or one pitches. Let's
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: not put Munjos in the position where he's inheriting traffic
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: to start the inning.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I tend to think the bigger issue was
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: the back end of the experiment. You're seems like your
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: bigger issue is the front end, leaving Bryson a little
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: bit longer than maybe you have Forrayer to close the
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: whatever whatever you want to do.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: Oh, I have equally Okay, yeah, okay. I think that
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: those two things you are great learning points and you
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: should never make those mistakes again.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: And you're already limiting before this six man rotation or
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: this experimentation of the piggyback, you're already limiting the times
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: that you're using Andrece Munios because you only bring him
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: in and leads anyway. And now you had a lead
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: and you're still in this specific so you have one
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: less time to use Andres Munios. And we've talked about
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: this before. He needs to pitch a little bit more
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: frequently because he gets a little bit rusty, and then
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: when he doesn't pitch for five days, it comes out,
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: he doesn't look as good right. So for me and
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: specifically talking with the decision or lack thereof, to go
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: change out Castillo first, my first choice would have been
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: to have Andre's Migno start the night. But even when
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: Castillo gets the first two men on, why is Andre's
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: Munio's not ready? Because what happened, if you guys remember,
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: is Pete Woodworth was ready. He wasn't because Pete Woodworth
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: went out to kind of buy them some time and
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: talk to Luis Castillo and like making sure that Andres
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: Munios is ready. That's why Dan Wilson's taken as long
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: as he possibly can to go out for the second
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: visit and be like, okay, now Andres Munios is ready,
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: so we can make the change. But he can't do that.
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: Why is he not ready? Like at the beginning of
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: the inning, Like that's that's the main managerial mistake there.
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: And I realized that specific choice doesn't cost you the
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: game because Castillo gets the next guy out right and
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: then you bring in Andres Munios. But still, if you're
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: gonna execute these nuanced and unpracticed plans, you have to
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: be ready for different variables of we as we've discussed before,
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: and I just don't know if this staff, I'll say
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: it as a whole, I don't. I'm not going to
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: speculate specifically whose decision it is. I'm assuming it's Dan
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: Wilson's unless I'm told otherwise. I don't trust this staff
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: to make those decisions in those moments all the time.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: I think there was a general plan and then the
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: adjustments to the plan were discussed haphazardly. Right, Okay, so
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: I get I am actually intrigued. I said that yesterday
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: right by this idea and it didn't blow up in
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: their face. Miller was fantastic and Castillo was better than
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: we've seen him in a while. And it's just that
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: it was a one run game. Those are precious and
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: I don't think that the idea of if the runner
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: gets the second, then we bring in Munnos to me
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: and maybe it's a learning point. I know a lot
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: of people have said, don't ever do this again. I
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: think they are going to do it again. I think
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: the learning point is that we do have to. We
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: can't just have this guy throws five, this guy throws
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: four and then we'll improvise, you know, to me, it
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: is Yeah. To me, it is we have a manager
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: of a major league baseball team who needs to be
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: able to assess the situation at hand and act accordingly
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: and not be held to some script that we came
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: up with upstairs six you know, floors off of the field,
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: above the field, you know, eight hours ago, right that, That,
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: to me is the adjustment that you have to make.
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: And I think the adjustment was, Hey, I kind of
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: liked what I saw out of Castillo. Now let's get
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: Munios ready to close out the ninth inning, because it's
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: not like Castillo had a clean inning. If he has
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: an eighth inning like he had in the seventh inning,
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: leave leave him out. Yes, let's let it roll. But
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: I think once they put the traffic on and then
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: especially after Dan screwed up and didn't know the rules,
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: and then Castile's like, watch this mother blanker, you know,
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: and then strikes out Montgomery. At that point, I'm just
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: gonna like, you know what, ride it. Let's ride it.
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, we're experimenting here. Let's just see if he
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: can get out of it, and let's let's just go
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: with that. And and yet I think they got caught
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: in between there in the ninth not knowing what to do,
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: and Andres I have faith in, but he's not been
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: the same guy who was a year ago. And frankly,
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: he got screwed over. He made the pitches and because
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: the infield was drawn in, two little duck farts slip
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: slipped through Josh Naylor's glove and and and you don't
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: get the outs and instead lose the game two to one.
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: So a lot, a lot of variables. There, a lot
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: of things just kind of got out of control. But
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: I would think if they're doing this again, they learned
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: some valuable lessons.
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: Do you think if they had brought in Munios to
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: the beginning of the ninth inning and the same thing happens.
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: He puts two guys on and you know, they get
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: the duck farts and they win the game. Is there
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: any question about the piggyback whatsoever?
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: I think there still would have been criticism. There's gonna
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: be criticism.
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: Even if it had nothing to do with the piggyback
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: because Munos came into a clean night and he was
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: doing fine.
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: I don't Yeah, there probably would be. You wouldn't Miller
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: still in the game. He could have gone the distance. Yeah,
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: I don't lost the game. You're gonna have critics, especially
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: when you do something unusual. Yeah, and that was unusual.
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: It was I've never seen it before in my entire life. No.
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: And for those who are saying, oh, I've seen people
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: start before the traditional starter comes in, that's a opener
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: opener exactly right, and then like there maybe one inning,
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: sometimes two versus and then the guy goes six whatever innings.
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: That's not what's going on here. It's a two traditional
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: bulk starters going back to back or maybe with the
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: guy in between.
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: Right, to get them work and to keep them lengthened. Right.
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: The closest that has come to this, I think is
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: in the playoffs where they'll bring in starters mid game
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: to relieve you know, the starting pitcher. That wasn't a
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: plan going into the game. Exactly. This was a plan.
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: And look, I mean I would hope in a playoff
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: game you are absolutely you are absolutely adjusting to how
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: the game is going. Even if you had a plan that, well,
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: we can go to a lefty in the fourth. If
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: Brian Wu struck out nine straight batters, you adjust, Yeah,
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Yeah, So I don't think
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: I think they haphazardly brushed through the adjustments will make
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: in a one run game, or if Bryce Miller is
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: throwing a no hitter heading into the sixth. So that
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: to me was I think awkwardly handled. I don't hate
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: the strategy, and I don't think it was as big
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: a failure as people think it was. It's just the
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: way that the game finish left us wondering why you
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: didn't do a better job adjusting to how tight the
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: game was. All right, coming up next, We're gonna run
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: it through another filter, same topic, but we will run
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: it through the filter of Luis Castillo. Sports Radio ninety

  Speaker 1: three point three KJRFM.
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: Now back to checking buck on your home for the
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: Huskies Cracking and the Twelfth Man, brought to you by
• 23:24

  Speaker 3: three point three kjr FM.
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: All right, Texters, YouTubers, I hear you loud and clear.
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: I think everybody needs to understand when you do a
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: four hour radio show, you can't just do the same
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: conversation every segment. So we've already talked about the offense.
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: I started the show, we lost the game because of
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: the offense and not because of the pitching. Now, the
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: reason that we're talking more about the pitching is because
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: it's brand new. It's a piggyback, and there are a
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: lot of things to react to. But we hear you
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: a loud and clear. So I was gonna run it
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: through the Dan Wilson filter at eight o'clock, but just
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: to satisfy those angry, we'll switch that. I'll move Dan
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: Wilson to nine. And so, because people are in such haste,
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: we will at eight o'clock talk about then the offense
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: and some of the struggles and the decisions that are
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: going into the struggles. So we'll do that at eight o'clock,
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: but we do have to run it through the Dan
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: Wilson filter as well before the show, and I did
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: tease that we were going to run it through the
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: Luis Castillo filter, which is what we should do right
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: now and pay off the tease. And so look, last
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: night he kind of looked like old Rock with a
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: couple of adjustments. I still think he's pitching a little
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: bit scared that he's not the same pitcher anymore. And
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: that's how you end up walking a guy to start
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: an inning, and that's how you end up hitting a guy.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: You're you're you're kind of scared to go over the
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: plate with your stuff right now. Well, that was ninety
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: two to ninety four mile per hour, Luise, ninety seven
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: ninety eight mile per hour Luise, which is what we
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: were getting last night. That looked pretty good. And I
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: think you needed to trust your stuff more. I mean,
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: you worked two plus innings, you allowed four base runners,
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: but only one infield hit that you know you should
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: have had and if you couldn't get it, you should
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: have let Cole Young defend it. And because you knocked
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: it away from Cole, it ends up being an infield single.
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: But from in terms of how is Luis Castillo going
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: to react to be put being put into the bullpen? Fine,
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: I thought he looked good. I'm not gonna say great.
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: I try not to over use that word. And obviously
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: you compare him to Bryce Miller, and he wasn't great
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: because Rights was great last night. But I thought he
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: looked good last night.
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think my worries about how his stuff
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: would play up in the bullpen. Hyphen talked about it
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: on the broadcast last night that maybe this is exactly
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: what he needed, where he could just kind of empty
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: the tank not worry about any length or anything, because
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: I think that can kind of go into starter's mentality.
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: Sometimes it's like, Okay, you know, I'm starting the game.
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: I got to make sure I get at least five
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: innings so that my bullpen can you know, stay rested
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: and stuff like that. You are now the bullpen like,
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: and you have options behind you if you absolutely need it,
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: empty the tank and attack. And the biggest factor for
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: me on whether this will work for Luis Castillo is
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: his ability to pitch out of the stretch. If you
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: guys watch, I don't know the exact stack cast numbers.
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: I'm trying to find them. I'm not a connoisseur of
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: being able to, you know, filter everything through the right lenses.
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: But his velo goes down when people are on base,
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: and he becomes less effective and his command goes down
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: as well. That's why that first inning was so good,
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: because he didn't get anyone on base right. He was
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: pitching through the full motion for the entirety of that inning,
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: and he looked great. And then as soon as the
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: first battle reaches in the eighth inning or some second
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: batter reaches in the eighth inning, it's like, okay, that's
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: when things started to falter a little bit with him.
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: So if he can find out a way to be
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: at least ninety percent effective ninety percent of as effective
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: from the stretch as he is normally, then I feel
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: like from the wind up I should say, then I
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: feel like this experiment will be a positive one.
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: Well, I mean, he seems to have a trend going
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: right now. And Luke Arkins, who I did enjoy texting
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: with last night during the game, he sent me the
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: Castillo numbers, which I wasn't aware of. I kind of
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: felt like it was similar to this, but not nearly
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: as pronounced this season, Luis Castillo in the first inning
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: is allowing a one to fifty six. Was it batting
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: average or on base? I don't know what. He sent
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: me three p forty nine in the second, three fifty
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: nine in the third, and three sixty four I think
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: it's batting average in the fourth inning. So this is
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: something that I have talked about for a couple of
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: years now, and that is I think Luis Castile does
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: profile with an overcrowded starting rotation as somebody that could
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: definitely be a great bullpen arm and for the reasons
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: that you mentioned that if he's just allowed to unleash
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: and throw ninety seven to ninety eight with movement versus
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: ninety two and ninety four with movement, and remembers how
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: talented he is and doesn't have to live on the
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: I mean, they all live on the edge to a degree,
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: but he's living off the plate right now, trying to
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: get people to chase, and people just aren't of a
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: mind to chase. But he comes in last night, his
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: first game as a reliever ever in a regular season game,
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: and just absolutely blows their doors off for one inning.
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: I mean, if he's already one fifty six batting average
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: allowed in the first inning and now I can go out,
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think Luis Castillo's value to this
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: organization is as a starting pitcher anymore. I think Luis
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: Castillo should be transitioned to the bullpen. And I felt
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: that over the piggyback. I felt that over the six
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: man rotation. And it's not just to isolate him somewhere
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: or to throw him off the island of starting pitcher
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: starting pitcher island. It's I think he could flourish. I
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: think Bryce Miller could too, but I don't want to
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: do that to Bryce's starting pitching abilities. But I think
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: that there's enough evidence that Luis Castillo's not the same
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: pitcher he was and could reinvent himself. I've thrown out
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: the name John Smoltz, I've thrown out the name Dennis Eckersley.
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, we got this guy for another year and
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: a half at twenty four million dollars per A twenty
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: four million dollar one inning reliever is not great value,
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: but it's better than a twenty four million dollars six
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: starting pitcher who are piggybacking. Well. I don't think we'll
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: never come to a DFA, okay, but I think that
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: he could fill that role. And I don't I'm not
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: saying immediately, but maybe the transition started last night. Yeah,
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: maybe seeing him in the bullpen. Maybe Castillo feeling what
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: it's like to come out of the pen last night
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: and being that dominant for that first inning. I'd like
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: to see more of that. I'd certainly like to see
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: more of Castillo coming in and dominating one inning than
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: I would piggybacking. Yeah, and I don't even mind the piggyback.
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: I don't think it was the disaster that people are
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: professing it to be from last night into this morning,
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: and yet it's still an experiment. We still don't know
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: if it's going to work. I think Luis Castillo put
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: into starting to develop him right now into a high
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: leverage reliever. Not a closer, we have one of those,
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: but a high leverage reliever that you could use in
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: the playoffs and next year you could use full time.
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: As a high leverage reliever. Is a better way to
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: spend the twenty four million dollars you're paying him because
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: you can't trade him at that value right now. He
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: doesn't have any trade value than what you're getting out
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: of him so far this season and what you got
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: out of him last night.
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think that it makes a lot of sense.
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: You just there's a little bit different ways of pitching,
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: obviously in relief appearances in one of those things like
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: and you do have to pitch him the stretch as
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: a starter as well, but it's it's even more important
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: when you're a reliever because you have you know, you
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: need to get those outs if you come in from
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: one inning to whatever, and sometimes you are going to
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: inherit some runners, whether it's by yourself, you know, by
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: your own doing, or coming in for someone else. So
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: that's going to be something where you could absolutely change
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: his profile. And the biggest thing for me with his
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: success last night was his change up looked miles better
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: than what I've seen it in the last two years
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: with him. He's just been such a fastball slider, heavy guy,
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: four seamer slider that now all of a sudden, you
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: saw that change up, and that's the bugs bunny changeup
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: that we're used to seeing from Luis Castile. When he
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: first got traded to the Mariners, that's what his best
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: pitch was, and all of a sudden it's become his
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: least used pitch of his four So that's going to
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: be something that I really want to see from him
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: moving forward. And I think this experiment works out well
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: for me. Do you think they should do another round
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: of piggyback?
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: I don't mind it. I just hope that you use
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: the lessons that you learned last night. Is that the
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: rules go out the window in a one run game.
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: You got to be able to adjust. Just because you
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: said in a meeting eight hours ago. We want to
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: go five and four. Doesn't mean you marry yourself to that.
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: You've got to adjust to game situations. And so I
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: know why they were trying not to use the bullpen
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: because they're down a bullpen arm right now. Castillo's got
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: to serve as a bullpen guy right now, whether he's
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: in the rotation or not. So if you get your
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: three to four innings out of him night, that means
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: everybody else got the day off except for Rare, who
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: I'm not worried about. He pitched a one batter. I
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: think he could pitch the one batter every night for
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: the rest of his life. I'm not worried about that. Whatsoever.
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: You might have burned Munhos now he might not be
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: able to go today. But the part of the theory
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: wasn't just to keep Miller and Castillo active and lengthened.
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: It was also we might be able to use this
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: experiment to give our bullpen the entire night off. And
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: how valuable might that be one time through the rotation
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: every single time. So I don't know if they'll use
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: it again. I think that they will. I think there
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: was enough good that came out of it, But yes,
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: they absolutely have to be open to the idea of
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: changing the way that they handle one run situational games.
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: And I also think they got to be open to
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: the idea that Luis Castillo looked awfully damn good in
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: that first inning, and he's looked awfully damn good in
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: the first inning all season long. And maybe this is
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: the transition, Maybe this is the metamorphosis period of Luis
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: Castillo from a starter to a reliever. So right now
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: he's like an ugly caterpillar, but by the end of
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: the year he beautiful butterfly floating above the playoffs. Who knows. Yeah,
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: that way you can get value from him. As you said,
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: all right, Reckless at Breakfast. Next Sports Radio ninety three
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: point three KJRFM, we're going to talk about the Mariners
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: two out of every three segments, which are our long segments.
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: So I'm just trying to provide a palate cleanser in
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: between at our forty fives. And so certainly with Reckless
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: at Breakfast, we're gonna get with something reckless other than
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: Mariners baseball right now, Okay, and I want to talk JSN.
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: And here's the reckless part about this, because I'm not
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: going to run to his defense like everybody else did yesterday.
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: That's the reckless part of it. Wow, I love JSN.
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: We all love JSN. Your coaches love you JSN, Your
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: fans love you JSN. Wallet loves you. JSN. Get us,
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: The league loves you JSN. So forgive me that I
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: didn't jump on the Oh poor JSN yesterday. Get over it, Bud.
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: Like in the most important matters of life, you are
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: ultimately respected. You were respected by your organization. You were
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: respected by the league to get the Offensive Player of
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: the Year award because there were a lot of great candidates.
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: You were respected. You were named First team All Pro. Hey,
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: you are the highest paid wide receiver in the National
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: Football League right now. You are beloved by your family, friends, teammates, bosses,
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: and fans. Forgive me if I'm not going to shed
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: a tear that some unprofessional comedian, because that's what Drewski is.
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: He's an he's not a professional comedian, but he's made
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: a big living, you know, making lakes. But an unprofessional
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: comedian decided I don't have a joke, so I'm gonna
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: make fun of a difficult name to pronounce. Shame on him,
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: Shame on him, and shame on whoever inscribed your trophy
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: that they didn't get it right. But those are two
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: isolated incidents from two people bad at their jobs. That
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: has absolutely nothing with the amount of respect your being
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: shown in your life. You are being respected on a
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: scale from one to ten at a thirteen by everything
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: that matters. So get over Drewski and this nameless engraver
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: of your trophy and just celebrate the fact that you
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: won the damn award and your brother needs to back
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: off to YEP. So I mean right now, I am.
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: I just signed a contract without a pay raise, and
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: I have a promo running from another show from my
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: friends calling me an idiot that won't go off the
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: air for two weeks. And I'm not as butt hurt
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: as JSN is over Drewski screwing up his name. So
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: I forgive me that I don't have a big giant
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: pile of sympathy for our superstar wide receiver who we
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: all love at the greatest level that a couple of
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: isolated incidents just so happened to disrespect him from people
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: who aren't even football fans.
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'll take it a step Further, I think
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: he gets so much respect because there's the scope that
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: people view the Seahawks offense. They view it that it's
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: good because of JSN. There are so few people who
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: view an offense good because of the receiver, not because
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: of the quarterback.
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: There are a lot of people in this world that
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: need some encouragement. You are not one, Bud. Yes, you
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: aren't phenomenal. You know it. Yeah, you know that. We
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: all know it. You know that the league knows it,
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: that the bulk of the professional comedian world knows it.
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: So I am not going to jump on this pity
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: train for poor disrespected JSN because an engraver didn't put
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: off de offensive player of the Year and didn't spell
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: it correctly on your trophy that someone gave you. I
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: think I'm going to get you a trophy that says
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: Chuck Bowel morning morning or uh after afternoon. I got
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: a lot more disrespect than my life shown to me
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: than that. I'll tell you that much right now. So
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: if you want to trade positions and bank accounts, JSN,
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: I'm happy to do it. But uh uh, but yeah,
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: I'm just my words of advice. Are you you got
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: a really good life? There are a lot of people
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: that need pick me ups that don't have very good life.
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: You've got one of the best out there. You are
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: being respected at a ten level in all the most
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: important parts of life. So if you want to get
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: dragged down and be upset because a couple of dufices
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: screwed up your trophy moments, then you can do that.
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: I'm just not going to be one of them, all right.
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: Coming up next, back to the piggybacking. Yes, we're going
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: to satisfy the outcry to not just talk about the
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: pitching situation, but also the decisions that are being made
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: with our lineup on a daily basis. We'll talk offense next.
