Tim Britton talks Trade Deadline: Tarik Skubal sweepstakes, Most aggressive teams, Luke Weaver value · Foul Territory

• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Welcome Tim Brettan here. He is on to talk about
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: I'm sure I'm assuming the trade deadline because we love
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: the trade deadline. It's only about ten days away, So Tim, welcome.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: What do you got for us is dig right into
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: the trades here.
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: But any direction you want to go in, I guess.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: Would you tell me what's your favorite trade idea that
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: you have the favorite team you have?
• 0:23
  Speaker 3: What do you have here?
• 0:25
  Speaker 4: Well, so I focus on the Mets, So I think
• 0:28
  Speaker 4: you know, the Mets trading Luke Weaver to a team
• 0:31
  Speaker 4: like the Seattle Mariners, to me makes a lot of sense.
• 0:34
  Speaker 4: We were fitting into a bullpen. I think the Mariners
• 0:36
  Speaker 4: look to me like the team in the American League
• 0:38
  Speaker 4: does the best chance to make a real leap in
• 0:41
  Speaker 4: the second half. You know, they're sitting around five hundred,
• 0:43
  Speaker 4: They've be sitting around five hundred all year. But you
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: look at that roster, there's not like major areas that
• 0:47
  Speaker 4: need improvement outside of the bullpen. The bullpen has been
• 0:50
  Speaker 4: such a strength for Seattle for a while, it hasn't
• 0:53
  Speaker 4: been to this point this season. You put Weaver in
• 0:55
  Speaker 4: the back end of games there, you know, if you've
• 0:56
  Speaker 4: got Andre's munnos in the ninth inning. But you put
• 0:59
  Speaker 4: Weaver in front of him, the way he's pitched, this
• 1:01
  Speaker 4: is the start of May. He's given up one earned run.
• 1:04
  Speaker 4: He's been fantastic for the Mets. He's got that extra
• 1:06
  Speaker 4: year of team control, so New York can hang on
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: to him. But that might be the piece that gets
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: them the most at the trade deadline compared to some
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: of the guys who are in their walk years.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: Okay, well enough about the Mets. We've we've talked about
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: them there there. We already talked too much about the Mets.
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: That's it.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: The Mets are out. Let's get to your tiers. You know,
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: as a senior reporter for the Athletic you're the Mets guy.
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: I know you want to talk about the Mets. But
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: you've kind of tiered it right with teams Tier one,
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: Tiers two, tier three, all the way. I think he
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: goes down to what tiers seven? Yeah, tiers seven, So
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: let's start tier one. Let's start at the top. Okay,
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: it could be and should be aggressive buyers. So what
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: teams do you think should be And I don't want
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: to say could be, I say I would say will
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: be aggressive buyers.
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: Here in a couple of weeks.
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think there you look at the Yankees, the Phillies,
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: the Brewers, the Cups, and actually the Pirates. The Pirates
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: are probably the one that stands out as a weird
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: one there. You know, the other four teams are all,
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: you know, looking like they're headed toward the post season
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: and kind of solidifying for what they could be in October.
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: But I think you look at teams that are aggressive
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: buyers in the past, like call them like all in buyers,
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: teams that are willing to trade significant prospect capital for
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: win now pieces.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: You think about.
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: Teams like, you know, teams of the past, like the
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: twenty fifteen Rangers did that when they didn't seem like
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: they were in position to make the playoffs. The twenty
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: fifteen Blue Jays did that when they got David Price
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: and Troy Tulwitski. It really changes your what you look
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: like for the rest of the season. The Pirates have
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: a nice run differential. They they're not playing up to
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: those peripheral stats, but they've got a pathway toward the
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: playoffs in the National League, and if they can supplement
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: the roster the right way with some aggressive moves, they've got,
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: you know, Paul Skins at the top of that rotation,
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: a really nice rotation. If they can get to the postseason,
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: they become a scarier team than you might otherwise think
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: because of what they've done so.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: Far this year.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's start a rotation, no bullpen, so maybe they
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: kind of go deep deep. Maybe you should just put
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: RP RP relief pitching, relief pitching. But let's go to
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: the Brewers. Number two team that on that list. For me,
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: this is a team that has consistently I played there
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: in twenty eighteen and didn't quite make the big move,
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: made a bunch of little ancillary moves. Could this be
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: the year because of the fact that they've done it again,
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: because of the fact that they downgraded their pitching and
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: now their pitching is still really good. Is this a
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: year that you would see them making a push for
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: possibly one major piece and then a few ancillary pieces.
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I'd really like to see it because
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: this team, they've done it in the regular season for
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: so long. Last year they finally got over that that
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: postseason hurl. They hadn't won a postseason series since you
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: were there at eighteen and got to the NLCS, and
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: you look at that they've got so many good kind
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: of middle tier guys that it might be and that
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: goes through their prospects is they've got more prospects coming,
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: so they've got a chance to maybe consolidate a little bit,
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: trade two good pictures to get one great pitcher kind
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: of thing. And obviously, you know the name that you're
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: gonna want to bring out there is Trek Schoubl And
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: you imagine what that rotation looks like with School and
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: Misroowski at the top of it. You know guys guy
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: who won two says the last two years, a guy
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: who might win it this year in the National League.
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: That becomes a different kind of animal in the postseason.
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: Or even if they wanted to do something on their infield,
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: on the left side of the infield, we've got two
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: good defenders over there in Cooper.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: Pratt and Joey Ortiz at third base, but maybe add a.
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: Little bit of pop to the lineup if they wanted
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: to make that kind of move so that they've got
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: different places they can upgrade. There's no again, no significant
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: weakness on that roster, but maybe more of an opportunity
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: to take a position that's good and make it great
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: at the deadline and push them over the top into
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: a pennant.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: Perhaps one of the other teams in the same tier
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: is the Yankees. The Yankees historically don't do big moves
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: at the trade deadline. Brian Cashman has said it, He's like,
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: you know what, you know, there's a lot of like
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: false hopeful teams, So I don't see a lot. He's
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: already laid out the groundwork across the city from you that. Eh,
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: you know what, there's probably no reason for us to
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: go big. Is very ch this year because their biggest
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: piece and Aaron Judge is out that they do go big.
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah, And I think you look at the American League,
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: like if they were in the Central or the West,
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: you'd say, you know, just you don't have to do
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: a whole lot to supplement that regular season roster, get
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: in the playoffs, do what you can. But because they're
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: they're trailing Tampa Bay in the East so far and
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: Judge's status is uncertain going forward, maybe you do want
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: to supplement that roster for the regular season to make
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: sure you catch Tampa, make sure you get that first
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: round by and make sure your playoff path is a
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: bit easier than it would be if you have to
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: go on the road in the Division Series and I
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: have to play a Wildcard Series then go on the
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: road in the DS. So I think again there's opportunities there.
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: They're you know, same with their starting rotation. Their starting
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: rotation is good and deep, especially now with Max Freed
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: coming off to the IL, but there's maybe an opportunity
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: to trade two good pitchers for one great one. There's
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: an opportunity certainly in their bullpen. The back end of
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: their bullpen could use some supplementation as well. So I
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: think that's another roster that, you know, it looks good
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: on paper. I think if everyone is healthy on the
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: they're still the favorite in the American League, even with
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: the struggles they've had in the summer. But you know,
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: there's still some uncertainty there and some chances to get
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: better and make them a better potential opponent for the
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: Dodgers or the Brewers or whoever ends up coming out
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: of the National League.

• 7:13
  Speaker 1: All right, tim, we're gonna run through a couple of
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: these here fairly quickly, because there's a couple of them. Honestly,
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: we don't really care about We're gonna I'm gonna start
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: with tier seven and tier six because these are like
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: the worst teams in baseball. Tier seven is the Angels, Mets,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: and Giants. They're out of it. We know that, right,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: they should be and could be aggressive sellers if they
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: have pieces that people want, and in the Angels case,
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: if they decide they'll actually do what they need to do,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: which they don't typically do.
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: Tier six typical sellers, Royals, Rockies, A's again, teams that
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: are out of it. Yes, they usually do sell because
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: you know what, they're usually not very good and they're
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: usually not in it. But see, then it gets interesting
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: to me when you get into like tier five, the Reds,
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: I don't think they're in it, right. I don't think
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: the Reds are in it on tier five, and the
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: Cardinals are kind of fake in it for me, They've
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: hung around, they've been pretty good. They've hung around about
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: five to six games above five hundred. This is where
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: it starts getting a little more interesting. And then when
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: you get to tier four is where you're.
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: Like, what will these teams do?
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: Because you have the Padres, the Nationals, the Blue Jays,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: and the Tigers. Here will the Tigers get rid of
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: schoobl right? Will the Padres use Mason Miller or a
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Michael King. Will the Nationals actually go out and make
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: a move, which they haven't done for the last few years.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: And then the Blue Jays, We've talked about them all
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: already today they were in they were this close to
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: winning the World Series. Will they sell and if they
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: do so, what will the reaction be?
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean these are the teams that kind of
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: hold the trade deadline in their hands right now. These
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: are the pivotal teams that will decide whether this is
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: a huge seller's market for those you know, seven or
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: eight teams beneath them, or if we have more of
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: an even distribution than we usually do. And you think
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: about the pieces that those teams have. It starts obviously
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: with Detroit and schoobl Then you've got Mason Miller with
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: San Diego.
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: You've got CJ. Abrams with Washington.
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: You've got Kevin Gosman and Dalton var Show, maybe Jeff
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: Hoffman with Toronto. Like though those can be you know,
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: we ranked the best players available at the deadline. I
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: think those are those are all top ten pieces, so
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: that those are the guys that if they do become available,
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: and you know, you look at Aj Preller's a guy
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: who does not want to sell. Has shown over the
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: course of his tenure there he does not want to
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: sell the man. If he does, he can get pretty
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: much what he gave up last year for Millery. He
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: might be able to get that kind of package back
• 9:22
  Speaker 4: for him because of how good he has been during
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: his time with San Diego.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: You know, obviously Scooble is the crown ruel. We have
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: not seen a picture of his caliber moved at the deadline,
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: probably since Max schurz Aer in twenty twenty one to
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: the Dodgers. If Abrams is.
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: There, it's rare to see a shortstop with that much
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: team control moved, so that there's a real opportunity for
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: the deadline to be owned by those two, by those
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: teams if they.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: Decide to sell.
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: And that makes me wonder, like, you know, if in
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: a vacuum he might decide to buy, because you're only
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: a couple of games out of the playoffs, if you
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: decide to zag and go the other way and sell,
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: because there's such an opportunity there to capitalize on.
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: You said, Aj kind of glazed over the Reds a
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: little bit. They're out. Are there any pieces that you
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: see that the Reds could take advantage of this market,
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: like you were just talking about.
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: I think the biggest one is probably Nick Lodolo if
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: they wanted to move him. He's got an extra year
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: of team control, a guy who has looked really good
• 10:19
  Speaker 4: for flashes, but hasn't kind of put it together for
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: one full season. You know, if a guy like Joe
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: Ryan isn't made available, if other pitchers with kind of
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: that one extra year of control aren't out there, then
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: maybe Lodolo becomes that kind of plan B secondary piece
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: Compared to some other guys. You know, Spencer Steer is
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: like a nice utility piece. Maybe not a guy who
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: you're planning on starting for you every day for a
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: postseason contender, but a guy who fits in, fills in
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: the gaps for you everywhere. I think if like Steve
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: Pierce with the Red Sox in twenty eighteen, a guy
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: who became such a big piece of what they did
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: that postseason, Steer could serve that kind of role. He's
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: also got some gears of team control. You know, they're
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: not going to move the really top guys. Obviously, they
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: extended Burns, they've extended Green, They've got Ali de la Cruz.
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: They're gonna move someone like him.
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: But really the next part of the roster I think
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: does provide them some chances to capitalize on the market.
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: Makes sense.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: Let's go up one more tier. Let's go to tier three,
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: because again the one and two, I mean, I know,
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: Tier two Dodgers, Braves, Raised, Mariners, Guardians. These are teams
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: that are in it and they're gonna make moves, are
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: at least gonna try to right. But again, Tier four
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: and Tier three are the ones. This is the one
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: trending to. The Byside Rangers are right there with the Mariners.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: I don't know why they wouldn't buy, try and buy.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: Some of the Red Sox are about. I have won
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: fourteen in a row and they're probably gonna win fifteen
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: in a row. So they're definitely gonna have to do
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: something because Craig Brozil wants to basically go ninety ninety boogle.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: I was right to everybody out there after the way
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: they started, the White Sox haven't been this good since
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: lord knows when. Right the Marlins, I actually don't agree
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: with this. I think they're trending down a little bit
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: because of how they're playing diamondbacks, they probably won't do anything.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: But then you get to the bottom, right, Twins, Orioles, Astros.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: Are they really playoff possibility teams? With the Orioles, I
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: know they went on a long winning streak, they asked
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: are they are these teams really gonna make moves to
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: try to win this year and more their future down
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: the road.
• 12:02
  Speaker 4: I think these are teams that we looked at kind
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: of where their front offices are right now. You know
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: you've got in Houston, You've got Dana Brown in the
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: last year of his contract, the guy who has said
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: consistently we're gonna buy, We're gonna buy, We're gonna buy.
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: That's a team that that look if they turn and
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: trade Jeremy Paineer or Josh Hater, uh though those are
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: two pretty big pieces that they could make available. Uh,
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: but you know they're between between Brown and Joe Spota,
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: there's some extra urgency on them to win this year.
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: I think the same is true of Michael Lias in Baltimore.
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: After the way last season went, there was an expectation
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: that they would bounce back after spending some money in
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: the off season, making some bigger moves and they've gotten
• 12:35
  Speaker 4: themselves back into it over the last two weeks. And
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: then with Minnesota, you know, you've got the new control
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: person from the Pollad family talking a much bigger game
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: than they have the last couple of years that they
• 12:46
  Speaker 4: they know they need to win back a fan base
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: that's been kind of resigned to things the way the
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: way the spending has moved.
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: Down the last few years.
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: You know, if if, if we don't hear that from
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: the from the front officer ownership, Yeah, we're probablyutting the
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: Twins more in the in Tier four or Tier five
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: because of the losing streak that they're on as well.
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: But I think, you know, those teams have talked to
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: a bigger game about trying to buy, so I think
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: they're gonna look for as many reasons to buy as
• 13:09
  Speaker 4: possible compared to team like you mentioned the Cardinals, compared
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: to a team like that that you know is more or
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: less okay with falling a little bit out of it,
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: but it allows them to take advantage of the market.
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: All right, let's talk about the big board of actual
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: players that are available and how it's changed at the
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: athletic how it's changed from having give me the top
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: three that are gone from that list because their team
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: is still contending, and three that maybe are added to
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: that list because you know what their team's fortunes have changed.
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, like we still have Wilson Contreras and
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: Sunny Gray toward the top of that board.
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: But you know, we put that out Monday, the teams
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: can teams won more since then.
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: So it's you know, that's how fluid it can be.
• 13:52
  Speaker 4: Like we didn't have Mason Miller on it yet. We
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: will have the next update obviously because of where the
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: padres are now. So I think I think that's changed
• 13:58
  Speaker 4: since the first time we did it weeks ago. You know,
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: we've had it guys from Toronto like Kevin Gosman and
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: Dalton VARs Show. So I think it's a bit more
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: top heavy than it was initially. But Boston holds a
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: lot of you know, Boston's winning streak has changed some
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: of the veterans you would have available where all this
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: Chapman was on the list as well, and change the
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: way the market looks like overall. But I think that
• 14:21
  Speaker 4: I think everyone's still waiting on those teams. We talked
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: about those hinge teams because that's Detroit with schoobl That,
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: that's actually Minnesote with Joe Ryan was our number two guy,
• 14:29
  Speaker 4: Washington with CJ.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: Abrams.
• 14:31
  Speaker 4: That's gonna determine so much of what happens at this deadline.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: Teams, teams, teams, all about the teams. It's all about
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: the teams. Nobody cares about the players. Who can the
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: teams get? Who can the teams get? You know, Tim,
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: it's crazy, but we're just thankful that we don't have
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: to talk about your Mets anymore. We can talk about
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: other teams unless they make a big move here and
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: David Stearns decides to change it up a little bit.
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: But Tim, thank you. We appreciate it.
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: Five
