- 2:48Speaker 1: Good lead this hour. I do love the DQ men.
- 2:51Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, I'm on board. I'm in all right.
- 2:54Speaker 1: So our lead this hour is from the Pacific Northwest.
- 2:57Speaker 1: It is trade deadline day in baseball, and we had
- 3:01Speaker 1: a little late night razzle dazzle, which I'm happy about.
- 3:04Speaker 1: As you know, I like to complain. I'm a talk
- 3:06Speaker 1: show host. That's what we do. We complain, and I've
- 3:08Speaker 1: complained in recent years. It's been a number of years now,
- 3:12Speaker 1: but when I started doing the overnights, we always had
- 3:14Speaker 1: the trade deadline that was midnight Eastern, and sometimes there'll
- 3:18Speaker 1: be extensions and it would spill into the overnight show.
- 3:21Speaker 1: And then this redheaded woman named Rachel Nichols complained in
- 3:24Speaker 1: the NBA and then they changed it to the afternoon.
- 3:27Speaker 1: Then everyone else followed. So the trade deadline in baseball
- 3:30Speaker 1: is on here Thursday evening, six o'clock eastern, three o'clock
- 3:36Speaker 1: in the West. So that is the lead in, and
- 3:40Speaker 1: we've had some activity here in the trade that came
- 3:43Speaker 1: down here in the nighttime hours. The Mariners. The Mariners. Yes,
- 3:47Speaker 1: I know, they've never been to the World Series. The
- 3:49Speaker 1: Mariners have agreed to a deal to reacquire a player
- 3:53Speaker 1: they traded in twenty twenty three, a Johanio Suarez from
- 3:57Speaker 1: the Diamondbacks. Now the deal is pending medical review. We're
- 4:01Speaker 1: not official yet on what Arizona's getting. It's gonna be
- 4:05Speaker 1: a gaggle of suspects going to the Valley of the Sun,
- 4:10Speaker 1: so let us discuss the question for the esteem panel.
- 4:14Speaker 1: The Mariners have agreed to a deal to acquire a
- 4:18Speaker 1: Uhaniosaurus from the Diamondbacks. What's your knee jerk reaction. So
- 4:24Speaker 1: my thoughts on this, I've got clarendon garlic fries and
- 4:29Speaker 1: mind virus, and we will combine all of these things
- 4:34Speaker 1: together and we are gonna make delicious cupcakes. Because often
- 4:37Speaker 1: the Mariners turn into cupcakes and big games, it just
- 4:40Speaker 1: doesn't go very well. But the moment we are talking
- 4:43Speaker 1: right now, the Rangers and Mariners are tied for the
- 4:47Speaker 1: final wildcard spot in the American League as we are
- 4:50Speaker 1: at the trade deadline, and they actually have a four
- 4:53Speaker 1: game series that begins in Seattle here on Thursday night.
- 4:58Speaker 1: But that my first thought on the trade, the transaction
- 5:02Speaker 1: for Auhannio Suarez the GM in Seattle, Jerry Depodo has
- 5:07Speaker 1: apparently finally woken up from hibernation. Right he wiped the
- 5:13Speaker 1: crust of the spreadsheet out of his eyes there and
- 5:16Speaker 1: he is actually making a move and it does move
- 5:20Speaker 1: the needle. Now this is not a full needle blast,
- 5:23Speaker 1: but it moves the needle. Didn't think they had it
- 5:26Speaker 1: in him. I did not. This counts as a big bopper.
- 5:31Speaker 1: It is a big bopper. You're talking about a guy
- 5:33Speaker 1: who this season can consistently hit the ball four forty
- 5:39Speaker 1: feet with a smile, a little swagger, and so it's
- 5:44Speaker 1: out of character, that's my thought. It's out of character
- 5:47Speaker 1: for Seattle to make this trade. So I'm determined, after
- 5:51Speaker 1: a minute long Mallord investigation, as endorsed by Robbie the
- 5:55Speaker 1: Mariner fan and Crying Craig, that the m's front office
- 5:59Speaker 1: took some ardy right and they've cleared things up here
- 6:03Speaker 1: because normally they're allergic to taking any kind of risk.
- 6:08Speaker 1: And the quote, which is infamous, We've talked about it here,
- 6:11Speaker 1: one of the great embarrassing moments in recent baseball history.
- 6:15Speaker 1: A couple of years back, Jerry Depoto, the GM of
- 6:17Speaker 1: the Mariners, announced the quiet part out loud. He said,
- 6:22Speaker 1: the goal of the Mariners is to win fifty four
- 6:25Speaker 1: percent of their games. It is not to win the
- 6:27Speaker 1: World Series. It is not to go all in. It
- 6:31Speaker 1: is just to win enough. So you have the illusion
- 6:33Speaker 1: of contention and you're playing a mathematical equation that if
- 6:38Speaker 1: you just win fifty four percent of your games, eventually
- 6:41Speaker 1: you're actually gonna win. Now we know that's meaning win
- 6:44Speaker 1: the World Series, but that's loser talk right well, not
- 6:48Speaker 1: right now. This summer Seattle, right in this moment, we
- 6:51Speaker 1: do the show. Today, Seattle goes out and they get
- 6:54Speaker 1: a dude who has been monster mashing this year. Suarez
- 6:59Speaker 1: has turned back to clock and he's got all the
- 7:02Speaker 1: nerd porn, exit v low launch angle, all that stuff
- 7:06Speaker 1: the nerds get all horny for. And so assuming that
- 7:09Speaker 1: he doesn't get to Seattle and forget how a hit
- 7:12Speaker 1: he'll he'll be hitting dingers Suarez into Puget Sound again
- 7:16Speaker 1: and yeah it's a rental whoop pe damn do. He'll
- 7:20Speaker 1: be a free agent after the season. He won't be
- 7:23Speaker 1: back in Seattle. But regardless of that, if you look
- 7:27Speaker 1: around the landscape. I don't know if you've done inventory
- 7:30Speaker 1: in the American League, but it is softer than a
- 7:34Speaker 1: marshmallow and a sauna. The Yankees, even though they won
- 7:38Speaker 1: on a walk off there, they've been leaking oil the
- 7:40Speaker 1: last couple of months. The Tigers completely fell off the schneide.
- 7:45Speaker 1: And don't even get me started on the cheating a
- 7:49Speaker 1: one one thousand and two, one thousand holes. It's wide open,
- 7:53Speaker 1: it's wide open. Get in, it's wide open. And Seattle's
- 7:56Speaker 1: pitching for the most part, and not that they're perfect,
- 8:00Speaker 1: but they seemingly could go toe to toe with just
- 8:03Speaker 1: about anybody. And they've got that Brian Whoo in the
- 8:07Speaker 1: American League. All they needed was a little thumpty thump
- 8:11Speaker 1: in the middle of the lineup. And you know, in theory,
- 8:15Speaker 1: of course, you have to actually do it in the moment.
- 8:18Speaker 1: But Suarez gives them that. The Mariners, so finally they
- 8:23Speaker 1: actually act like a grown up. They actually act like
- 8:25Speaker 1: they have a pulse. So on the Malor report card,
- 8:28Speaker 1: I'm gonna give the Mariners an A. I'm giving the
- 8:31Speaker 1: Mariners an eight. The Poto gets a gold star for
- 8:35Speaker 1: actually doing something bold for once, and you got a shot.
- 8:39Speaker 1: You take it now, the d Backs they got a
- 8:42Speaker 1: package of suspects. I can only give them a sea
- 8:46Speaker 1: That's it. I can only give them a seae. At
- 8:48Speaker 1: some point I'll do a Mallard monologue about what a
- 8:50Speaker 1: scam the Major League Baseball pipeline is. But I will
- 8:53Speaker 1: not do that right now. I will not bore you
- 8:55Speaker 1: with my rant old man radio. Those pipeline it was terrible. Now,
- 9:00Speaker 1: speaking of stunners, as we get to the trade deadline
- 9:04Speaker 1: to San Francisco we go, and what do you make
- 9:08Speaker 1: of the Giants dealing right handed reliever Trevor Rodgers to
- 9:13Speaker 1: the Mets. So you might say, on the surface, well,
- 9:17Speaker 1: who cares about that? Is just a relief picture. It's
- 9:19Speaker 1: not their closer. I don't understand why you're bringing that up. Well,
- 9:23Speaker 1: the reason this is an interesting story. It's a whirling dervish,
- 9:28Speaker 1: is what it is. Okay. Just a few weeks ago,
- 9:31Speaker 1: I was sitting next to Marlin's man at Dodgers Dantam
- 9:33Speaker 1: Giants were playing the Dodgers, and about thirty minutes before
- 9:37Speaker 1: the game, it was announced that the San Francisco Baseball
- 9:41Speaker 1: team had made a trade with the Boston baseball team
- 9:44Speaker 1: for Rafael Devers, right, amazing big deal. Blew the budget
- 9:49Speaker 1: out of the water there, tossed it out of the ballpark,
- 9:53Speaker 1: out of the bray bridge there, and they said, hey,
- 9:55Speaker 1: we're one piece away. We need a cornerstone, middle of
- 9:59Speaker 1: the lineup player, a classic middle of the lineup hitter,
- 10:03Speaker 1: Raphael Devers. They got him. They had him for a
- 10:07Speaker 1: month or so, and right now they say, uh, turn
- 10:12Speaker 1: out the Lights's the parties over sending Trevor Rodgers to
- 10:17Speaker 1: New York. So they went, and this is why it's
- 10:20Speaker 1: a whirling dervish. They went, the giants from chasing the
- 10:23Speaker 1: penthouse to now folding up the tent and going down
- 10:28Speaker 1: to the soup kitchen. They saw the standings, they felt
- 10:31Speaker 1: the heat, and they said, we're out. We are out
- 10:35Speaker 1: of here. One minute you're acting like, hey, we're buyers.
- 10:39Speaker 1: We're gonna take down the Dodgers and the Mats and
- 10:42Speaker 1: these other teams, and the next you're unloading the longest
- 10:46Speaker 1: tenured player and Buster Posey sitting in the catbird seat
- 10:50Speaker 1: there in San Francisco, and he asked the question which
- 10:53Speaker 1: we like to ask in sports radio, contender or pretender.
- 10:57Speaker 1: The classic duck test was used and if it looks
- 11:01Speaker 1: like a duck, it walks like a duck, and it
- 11:03Speaker 1: sounds like a duck, it's a duck. In this case,
- 11:05Speaker 1: if it looks like a fraud, plays like a fraud,
- 11:08Speaker 1: it is a fraud. And so we have our answer
- 11:11Speaker 1: from Buster Posey. The Giants are a pretender. They are
- 11:14Speaker 1: a team that was apparently vampires. And we know there's
- 11:19Speaker 1: a lot of garlic the Great Garlic Fries there, and
- 11:22Speaker 1: so the vampires were exposed to those garlic fries. They
- 11:25Speaker 1: could not hang with the big boys, came apart the seams.
- 11:29Speaker 1: So they've decided that the smart move is to cash out,
- 11:33Speaker 1: and they've traded their longest tenured player, Rogers. He walks
- 11:38Speaker 1: away and yeah, good look, that is a retreat. The
- 11:42Speaker 1: Giants waved the flag, they threw in the sponge. They said,
- 11:46Speaker 1: that's it, so long, thanks for the quirky submarine delivery,
- 11:49Speaker 1: and there you go. So they sold you some snake oil.
- 11:53Speaker 1: And now they're back to where we thought the Giants
- 11:55Speaker 1: would be this year, mediocre, and now they're confused. Now
- 11:59Speaker 1: they're stuck with the malcontent. Raphael Devers good luck on that.
- 12:04Speaker 1: He's not exactly enjoying life outside Fenway Park. It has
- 12:08Speaker 1: not gone that well. All right, last word to Anaheim
- 12:12Speaker 1: we go. That's right, Anaheim, where the Angels made a
- 12:16Speaker 1: very minor move. There's a reason I'm bringing this up.
- 12:20Speaker 1: So the Angels added to their roster here at the
- 12:22Speaker 1: trade deadline. They acquired a couple of relievers, Andrew Chaffin,
- 12:26Speaker 1: who is thirty five, and Luis Garcia. This will be
- 12:31Speaker 1: his third time with the Angels. He is the ultimate
- 12:34Speaker 1: vagabond baseball plays thirty eight. So those guys came over
- 12:37Speaker 1: from the Nationals, and the Angels traded a left hander
- 12:43Speaker 1: and some minor league first baseman. So it's a very
- 12:45Speaker 1: minor trade, but it rises to the level, nevertheless of
- 12:49Speaker 1: a malad monologue. And here's why. So the Halo's owner,
- 12:53Speaker 1: Artie Marino is being blasted that the Angels have added
- 12:58Speaker 1: to their roster, that they've added someone rather than holding
- 13:01Speaker 1: a garage sale outside the Big A at the trade deadline.
- 13:05Speaker 1: So how do you rule on this? So I really
- 13:09Speaker 1: got a kick out of this because there some people
- 13:11Speaker 1: at least are pretending like they're really worked into a
- 13:13Speaker 1: lather over this. And I don't understand why you would
- 13:16Speaker 1: think that the Angels owner Arti Marino committed a war
- 13:20Speaker 1: crime based on how some of these nerds are reacting. Now,
- 13:23Speaker 1: I stand with Arty. I think Artie's a terrible owner.
- 13:26Speaker 1: I think he don't know what he's doing, but I
- 13:27Speaker 1: stand with him on this. Right. Hey, listen, the Halos
- 13:31Speaker 1: never go anywhere. They have the longest drought without a
- 13:34Speaker 1: playoff appearance. But so what, Arty, Mario's seventy eight years old.
- 13:38Speaker 1: You think he's signing up for a seven year rebuild
- 13:42Speaker 1: and just study Baseball America and that's it. Play the
- 13:45Speaker 1: minor league game. He already showed you his hands, Arty,
- 13:49Speaker 1: Morino showed you his hands, right. You remember he had Otani,
- 13:55Speaker 1: the great Otani disaster. Everyone said he's not going to
- 13:58Speaker 1: come back to Anaheim trade, He's gonna go somewhere else.
- 14:02Speaker 1: And what did he do? He kept Otani the deadline.
- 14:05Speaker 1: Everyone said he was nuts, and he said, I'm going
- 14:09Speaker 1: for it anyway. That tells you everything you need to know. So,
- 14:12Speaker 1: for better or worse, Artie Marino is not and I
- 14:15Speaker 1: actually think this is for better. He is not infected
- 14:18Speaker 1: with the loser virus that you are, and those other
- 14:22Speaker 1: idiots over there are infected with that has gone around
- 14:25Speaker 1: the league, this contaminant. It's a mind virus. Just tank.
- 14:30Speaker 1: I need prospects, just hope for the best. Right, what
- 14:35Speaker 1: do the Pirates have to show for that? What are
- 14:37Speaker 1: the Marlins? What do the athletics have to show for that? Squad? Douche? Right?
- 14:42Speaker 1: This trade for the Angels. It's obviously not an all
- 14:45Speaker 1: in move. It's not even an all in chip. It's
- 14:49Speaker 1: just a flyer. It's a depth move. And the Angels
- 14:52Speaker 1: got a couple of guys who will probably just eat
- 14:55Speaker 1: innings and that's it. It's not a big deal. And
- 14:58Speaker 1: you want to bury ARTI Marino, Oh, come on, if
- 15:02Speaker 1: you're gonna bear him, do it for the right reasons.
- 15:05Speaker 1: Do it that the fact that he got upset with
- 15:07Speaker 1: a sportswriter of the late great T. J. Simers, who
- 15:09Speaker 1: was a buddy of mine, and move the press box
- 15:11Speaker 1: down near the Pearly gates to screw the media. Get
- 15:13Speaker 1: upset with him. I'm so upset with him over that.
- 15:16Speaker 1: But you don't blast him for trying to continue to
- 15:20Speaker 1: put a competitive team on the field. Now, the Angels
- 15:22Speaker 1: have been just average. But I stand with already on
- 15:26Speaker 1: this one. He didn't light the deadline on fire, and
- 15:28Speaker 1: who knows, maybe in the hours to come today the
- 15:31Speaker 1: Angels will make some more trades and they'll trade ken
- 15:34Speaker 1: Lee Jansen or someone like that. But he didn't at
- 15:36Speaker 1: this point, as we're doing the show right now, the
- 15:38Speaker 1: Angels did not sell the lawn furniture. It's just a
- 15:41Speaker 1: blip on the radar. It's not a blunder. It's not
- 15:45Speaker 1: a blunder. And actually like it. It's to me, it's refreshing. Oh,
- 15:50Speaker 1: you're just an old guy. But it's refreshing that they
- 15:53Speaker 1: didn't wave the white flag and just give up like
- 15:56Speaker 1: half the league does at the trade deadline. God forbid
- 16:01Speaker 1: a team competes. That's such a that's such an old guy.
- 16:04Speaker 1: Take Oh my god, what about the pipeline A prospect?
- 16:08Speaker 1: You gotta get the prospect. Shut up your stupid prospects.
- 16:13Speaker 1: Shove him up your tuckers. Anyway, all right, I'm sorry,
- 16:17Speaker 1: it is the Ben Mahlor Show. I just have seen
- 16:19Speaker 1: way too many. I've been scanning trying to things, you know,
- 16:22Speaker 1: find things to the act with you about, and it's oh,
- 16:24Speaker 1: this this guy is the number seventeen prospect in the
- 16:27Speaker 1: Major League Baseball pipeline. Blow up the pipeline anyway. All right,

- 19:47Speaker 1: of that at a later point, but right now, back
- 19:53Speaker 1: to it.
- 19:53Speaker 5: I have a satin Knight John on.
- 19:56Speaker 1: Oh is that right? Genie? The Ghost of Genie and Medford.
- 20:00Speaker 1: The great thing about this show is even when you die,
- 20:02Speaker 1: you don't really die. You're still with us on this show.
- 20:04Speaker 1: We honor you forever and ever and ever. So have
- 20:07Speaker 1: been a bunch of trades in baseball. But the biggin,
- 20:11Speaker 1: the biggin on the horizon.
- 20:14Speaker 2: Is it true?
- 20:16Speaker 1: Is it true that one of the top most coveted
- 20:19Speaker 1: young pitchers in baseball is about to be traded? Is
- 20:23Speaker 1: it also true that that young pitcher was held out,
- 20:27Speaker 1: held out of a game on Wednesday night because a
- 20:31Speaker 1: trade is pending at today's deadline? Developing hot? Well, that
- 20:37Speaker 1: picture from the orphans of Major League Baseball. A team
- 20:42Speaker 1: so embarrassed they play in Sacramento. They don't want anyone
- 20:44Speaker 1: to know they play in Sacramento. That would be the closer.
- 20:50Speaker 1: Mason Miller, Free Mason, Free Mason. The Athletics manager Mark
- 20:57Speaker 1: Kotze announced that Mason Miller was unavailable for the game
- 21:01Speaker 1: on Wednesday night, a game that the Athletics would win
- 21:05Speaker 1: beat the Mariners five to four. Miguel Andrew Harr had
- 21:08Speaker 1: a couple of home runs in that game, but Mason
- 21:10Speaker 1: Miller did not pitch in the ninth inning. He was
- 21:12Speaker 1: not injured, and there are some reports bouncing around the
- 21:17Speaker 1: echo chamber here in the overnight that Mason Miller is
- 21:20Speaker 1: headed to the Padres. Why yeah, the Padres closing in
- 21:29Speaker 1: on a deal for Mason Miller, and we'll see what
- 21:33Speaker 1: they end up having to give up. And that would
- 21:36Speaker 1: I would assume that would mean they would move their closer,
- 21:39Speaker 1: Robert Suarez, who's not very good at least I don't
- 21:43Speaker 1: trust him in big games. So some developing baseball news
- 21:47Speaker 1: there as we head into the overnight, and there was
- 21:50Speaker 1: a trade. The Dodgers made a trade. And normally I
- 21:54Speaker 1: would lead with the Dodger trade. I don't even know
- 21:56Speaker 1: who these people are. There's three team trade, the Dodgers,
- 22:01Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay Rays, and the Cincinnati Reds. Dodgers in
- 22:06Speaker 1: Southern Ohio lost that game last night. Oh Tani came
- 22:10Speaker 1: out of that game. But the Dodgers received a prospect.
- 22:15Speaker 1: We know a prospect is a suspect Adam Sarahanowski from
- 22:19Speaker 1: the Reds and the relief pitcher Paul Gervais. And he's
- 22:23Speaker 1: related to Ricky Gervais. I know Ricky Gervasis and catcher
- 22:27Speaker 1: Ben Rotfeed from Tampa Bay. I have no idea who
- 22:30Speaker 1: these people are. The Rays received a catcher from the dogs.
- 22:33Speaker 1: I don't know who that guy is. And the name
- 22:36Speaker 1: I've heard of is Zach Little from Tampa Bay, but
- 22:40Speaker 1: he went to the Cincinnati Reds. I believe he has
- 22:44Speaker 1: a big beard. I think if he's the guy I
- 22:46Speaker 1: think he is, he's got like a big red beard. Yeah,
- 22:51Speaker 1: like Chewbacca. He do you know? It's Miracle Treat Day
- 22:54Speaker 1: at Dick Did you know that? Yeah? That means one dollar.
- 22:57Speaker 1: I know. I'm gonna remind you of that a lot.
- 22:59Speaker 1: It means one one dollar or more from every blizzard
- 23:01Speaker 1: treat is donated to your local member hospitals of the
- 23:04Speaker 1: Children's Miracle Network Hospitals. Blizzard treats are even sweeter when
- 23:10Speaker 1: they support kids who need it most. DQ Happy Taste good.
- 23:16Speaker 1: See what the knuckleheads are saying on the X machine.
- 23:20Speaker 1: Banana split blizzards are my favorite, by the way. Yeah,
- 23:23Speaker 1: we were commenting that cotton candy is a second. That's
- 23:25Speaker 1: a very close second. The interesting thing about the dairy Queen,
- 23:30Speaker 1: and we do the show from LA and then you
- 23:32Speaker 1: know you have to drive out a bit to get
- 23:33Speaker 1: a dairy queen. We're in other places I've been to.
- 23:35Speaker 1: There's a lot of dairy.
- 23:36Speaker 3: Queen I have to drive at least twenty to thirty
- 23:38Speaker 3: five minutes to get to one.
- 23:40Speaker 1: Yeah, of course that's only a couple of miles in LA.
- 23:42Speaker 1: But yeah, are solid point. Yeah, Nostredinis writes in from
- 23:47Speaker 1: the Belly of the Beast, Mariners make the big trade
- 23:49Speaker 1: that was the lead on the show, says, Unfortunately, having
- 23:53Speaker 1: lived through the entirety of the Seattle Mariners existence, I
- 23:56Speaker 1: have more confidence in the SuperSonics getting to the finals
- 23:59Speaker 1: before of the Mariners seeing a World Series. Yeah. Yeah,
- 24:04Speaker 1: Seattle will get an NBA team back and they will.
- 24:07Speaker 1: They will win before the Mariners. Mariners do. Now, the
- 24:10Speaker 1: Mariners will have to go back to the Kingdome to
- 24:13Speaker 1: figure it out. Who's your bill? Hitting the mini bar?
- 24:16Speaker 1: Early rights In says, Commenting on the Angels and their trade,
- 24:20Speaker 1: says the Angels will be relocating to Mexico City in
- 24:24Speaker 1: twenty twenty seven. Yeah, there you go, Aileen writes, and
- 24:30Speaker 1: she says buster Ponti's Buster Posey's sick of the Giant's
- 24:34Speaker 1: awful offense, foul ups, bleeps and blunders on defense and
- 24:39Speaker 1: litter league base running, and will hold a fire sale
- 24:42Speaker 1: later later on today. According to Eileen, late night, Drug
- 24:48Speaker 1: tester says, I'm not sure what is the bigger shocks
- 24:50Speaker 1: starting the show with a Mariner's monologue, or to eat
- 24:54Speaker 1: all the blizzards you want and it's going to a
- 24:58Speaker 1: good cause. Yeah, no, no, I mean seriously, In fact,
- 25:03Speaker 1: I don't know this for sure. It's just my opinion.
- 25:06Speaker 1: You can't assume me from my opinion. Since they're having
- 25:08Speaker 1: this deal at Dairy Queen, the cavaries probably don't count
- 25:11Speaker 1: because you're doing a good thing for the valid point, right, Yeah,
- 25:15Speaker 1: it is. It's likely the calaries just don't matter. Called
- 25:18Speaker 1: karma calories exactly. You're you're helping out. Yapimi in Chicago says, Hey,
- 25:23Speaker 1: Malar a plus and some Gabba gul on the opening
- 25:27Speaker 1: Mallar monologue. I agree with your take on prospects that
- 25:30Speaker 1: they are expendable. Andre is a prospect for the worst
- 25:35Speaker 1: sports radio caller in history. Wow, that is very harsh.
- 25:38Speaker 1: Can we trade him for a better caller from one
- 25:41Speaker 1: of the other shows? Well, I know most of the
- 25:42Speaker 1: other shows don't take calls. They're afraid of the calls.
- 25:46Speaker 1: So yeah, Tacoma Drill writes and says, pinch me, I
- 25:49Speaker 1: must be sleeping. Did my Mariners actually shove all their
- 25:53Speaker 1: chips into the center of the table. Now we just
- 25:56Speaker 1: need a little sodo mojo A plus plus. Well, all
- 26:02Speaker 1: the chips, let's not go all the chips. I'm not
- 26:05Speaker 1: going that far. I'm gonna say all the chips, absolutely not.
- 26:09Speaker 1: What else do we have? Let's see here page down,
- 26:13Speaker 1: Let's see some ask ben questions here for later on.
- 26:17Speaker 1: And I'm getting carpet bombed or timeline bombed by Hoo's
- 26:20Speaker 1: Your Bill. So I'm sorry those of you that are
- 26:24Speaker 1: sending messages in It's pretty much everything I'm seeing here
- 26:27Speaker 1: is from Hoo's your Bill. Anyway, we'll take your calls.
- 26:30Speaker 1: Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven seven
- 26:35Speaker 1: nine nine six six three six nine lot as the
- 26:39Speaker 1: big transaction of the day so far, the third basement
- 26:46Speaker 1: of the Arizona Diamondbacks now sending him back to a
- 26:50Speaker 1: team he played for Seattle A JOHANNEO. Suarez goes from
- 26:55Speaker 1: the Diamondbacks to the Mariners. So there is that. And
- 27:01Speaker 1: what kind of year is he having? Well, what is
- 27:05Speaker 1: tell me? He is having a well, not an MVP
- 27:09Speaker 1: season because he's been on a mediocre Diamondback team. However,
- 27:13Speaker 1: if you look at the power numbers, and everyone loves
- 27:19Speaker 1: the long ball, right, everyone lives for the long ball.
- 27:21Speaker 1: It's all about the long ball. This guy is insane
- 27:25Speaker 1: to the membrane this year. And now you're like, there's
- 27:28Speaker 1: only a couple months to go in the baseball season.
- 27:30Speaker 1: They can't There's no way he's not going to all
- 27:33Speaker 1: of a sudden bat to ten with like three home
- 27:36Speaker 1: runs the rest of the way, right, that's not no,
- 27:40Speaker 1: there's no way. But Arizona's seven games under five hundred.
- 27:43Speaker 1: They're twelve games behind the Dodgers, who's lead. By the way,
- 27:48Speaker 1: the Dodgers' lead in the Nationally West is down to
- 27:50Speaker 1: three games. And I love the fact these a holes
- 27:53Speaker 1: have been futzing around all year. They got guys. The
- 27:56Speaker 1: injury room is like a country club over there, these guys,
- 28:00Speaker 1: there's no accountability. No, it's just embarrassing. It's an absolute embarrassment.
- 28:05Speaker 1: And yeah, I said, well we'll be fine. Yeah, yeah,
- 28:09Speaker 1: you only have a three game lead, and the Padreys
- 28:12Speaker 1: apparently are going for it. They're trying to get this
- 28:14Speaker 1: Mason Miller. But just to finish up the point on
- 28:18Speaker 1: the third basement, surez, he is on pace. I love
- 28:21Speaker 1: on pace, he's got thirty six home runs right now,
- 28:23Speaker 1: he's on pace to finish with fifty four home runs
- 28:26Speaker 1: and one hundred and twenty nine rbs. Now, my computer
- 28:29Speaker 1: like brain using malar math, tells me that that would
- 28:32Speaker 1: mean that with Seattle, if he's got thirty six home
- 28:36Speaker 1: runs at the trade deadline and now he's going to
- 28:39Speaker 1: play for the Mariners, that means he's going to hit
- 28:41Speaker 1: eighteen home runs and drive in see do the man
- 28:45Speaker 1: forty two runs over the final two months. So that's
- 28:48Speaker 1: nine home runs, twenty runs batted in a little over
- 28:51Speaker 1: twenty runs batter in over the final couple of months
- 28:53Speaker 1: of the season by the bing boy, the boom. There
- 28:56Speaker 1: you go. Right, let's go to the phones and we'll
- 29:00Speaker 1: say hello to Eenie Meanie Miney Mole. Let's go to
- 29:04Speaker 1: Andrea in Berkeley and she's got her star chart out.
- 29:08Speaker 1: She is the astrology insider. We don't need some baseball insider.
- 29:12Speaker 1: We have the astrology insider to find out what's in
- 29:15Speaker 1: the stars.
- 29:18Speaker 5: Yes, hello, Ben, how are you?
- 29:20Speaker 1: If I was any better, I would be a Miller,
- 29:24Speaker 1: But not Mason Miller. Well maybe I would be. I
- 29:26Speaker 1: think he's got to be pleased to get If he
- 29:29Speaker 1: is traded here to get out of the A's situation
- 29:33Speaker 1: and go to a team that's trying to win, that'd
- 29:34Speaker 1: be good, right.
- 29:35Speaker 5: You know, I'm glad you mentioned it. I was just
- 29:37Speaker 5: on a'scast talking about Mason Miller fellow Virgo August Let's
- 29:43Speaker 5: see Mason Miller, let me get it right, August twenty fourth,
- 29:46Speaker 5: nineteen ninety eight.
- 29:47Speaker 1: Now, did you say how did you say? How do
- 29:49Speaker 1: I guy? Chris Townsend? Did you say, hello, Oh yeah,
- 29:51Speaker 1: I sure did, old old radio guy.
- 29:54Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, he was on, and actually so is Chris Carrey.
- 29:58Speaker 5: So they did the show together. Mason Miller. Here's the thing.
- 30:03Speaker 5: Check it out. Your Rawness, which is a planet of
- 30:06Speaker 5: expect the unexpected, is squaring his son in Virgo. So
- 30:12Speaker 5: when you have that kind of transit of expect the unexpected,
- 30:16Speaker 5: it can actually work in your favor because it's about
- 30:19Speaker 5: freeing yourself from any sort of limitations that you're having.
- 30:24Speaker 5: So it brings unpredictable changes, but it's also breaking you
- 30:29Speaker 5: free from obligations that are no longer for your highest good.
- 30:33Speaker 5: So check this out. This aspect can bring sudden shifts,
- 30:36Speaker 5: unexpected events, and a push to break free from limitations
- 30:41Speaker 5: signifies the need to adapt redirect energy, leading to personal
- 30:45Speaker 5: growth and a reevaluation of one's direction in life. So
- 30:49Speaker 5: significant change and upheaval. So basically that's kind of read
- 30:54Speaker 5: between the lines that could be. I mean, wherever you go,
- 30:57Speaker 5: there you are, you'll have the transit know it uses
- 31:00Speaker 5: you or you use it. But it's really interesting timing
- 31:04Speaker 5: that all the trade talk is happening and he didn't pitch.
- 31:07Speaker 5: I watched the game. He didn't pitch tonight.
- 31:09Speaker 1: Yeah, well no, we said that he didn't pitch, and
- 31:11Speaker 1: Kostsee said that they held him out but he wasn't hurt,
- 31:14Speaker 1: so they're right.
- 31:15Speaker 5: He was kind of coy about it, but Sagittarius Kostse,
- 31:18Speaker 5: you know they're gonna be honest. So yeah, I think
- 31:21Speaker 5: that it could be a time for him.
- 31:23Speaker 1: But Miller Miller this year, his eer a is not great,
- 31:26Speaker 1: but he's got fifty nine strikeouts and eighteen walks and
- 31:28Speaker 1: he's uh, he throws bullets and all the nerds love him.
- 31:32Speaker 1: So whether you're a nerd or not, you know, I've
- 31:35Speaker 1: seen him pitch a few times and he's good. You know,
- 31:38Speaker 1: the guy's good. So you want people like that in
- 31:41Speaker 1: your team. And he's also I think he's under team control,
- 31:44Speaker 1: which is a big deal for a number of years.
- 31:46Speaker 1: So I mean, listen, the A's, the A's, it's this
- 31:49Speaker 1: weird science project because the A's they're just gonna trade that.
- 31:53Speaker 1: They're gonna trade all these young players until they got
- 31:56Speaker 1: a time it to when they get to Vegas, right
- 31:59Speaker 1: whenever that is, so, who knows they'll be. They'll be
- 32:02Speaker 1: delays because those people building the stadium want to get
- 32:05Speaker 1: more money, so they'll delay everything in the contract Vegas.
- 32:09Speaker 5: That's right, that'll be interesting. On a high note, Lawrence Butler,
- 32:13Speaker 5: great Cats and three run homer.
- 32:15Speaker 1: A couple of years I saw that I was watching
- 32:17Speaker 1: this game. He took that short fence out there, right,
- 32:19Speaker 1: you're talking about that play where he took the home
- 32:21Speaker 1: run away, Yes.
- 32:22Speaker 5: Exactly right, Yeah, like ten two thousand and I gotta
- 32:28Speaker 5: tell you.
- 32:28Speaker 1: I'm watching those days games and they keep showing, they
- 32:30Speaker 1: keep showing. I don't watch all of them, but I
- 32:32Speaker 1: was watching the game for some there wasn't much on
- 32:34Speaker 1: late you know, either that or the the Angel Ranger game.
- 32:37Speaker 1: But they keep showing that Bridge and Sacramento, which is
- 32:41Speaker 1: it's a fine bridge, but it doesn't compare to like
- 32:43Speaker 1: the bridges in Pittsburgh, you know. So it's like it's
- 32:45Speaker 1: like that's their bridge, and they keep showing that on
- 32:47Speaker 1: the b roll on the broadcast, but it's not. It's
- 32:50Speaker 1: not as cool as like some of these other bridges,
- 32:52Speaker 1: like even in the like in San Francisco or the
- 32:56Speaker 1: Golden Gate of course the bridge exactly, those are like
- 32:58Speaker 1: those are great bridges. Doesn't this look like a starter
- 33:01Speaker 1: bridge to me? It looks like a little baby bridge,
- 33:04Speaker 1: you know. And they keeps showing it on the broadcast,
- 33:05Speaker 1: and I'm like, well, that's not a cool I mean,
- 33:07Speaker 1: it's fine, but it's not a great bridge, you know.
- 33:09Speaker 1: And I've been I've been to Sacramento many times. I
- 33:11Speaker 1: don't even remember seeing the bridge. I don't remember. I
- 33:14Speaker 1: must not have gone to that part of Sacramento, but
- 33:17Speaker 1: I guess that's in West Sacramento. So maybe that's why
- 33:19Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't think i've been there. Yeah,
- 33:22Speaker 1: all right, Well, very good information. So thank you, Andrea,
- 33:25Speaker 1: and there you go, sun Son Squared, Virgo and service on.
- 33:30Speaker 1: Actually want to say a lo to Andrea and get
- 33:32Speaker 1: some cosmic goodwill. Well cosmic goodwill going your way. Yes,
- 33:39Speaker 1: I know we should do that on the air. No,
- 33:43Speaker 1: we should do like a Halloween special. You could do
- 33:45Speaker 1: a Halloween special and yeah, you have like a seance
- 33:50Speaker 1: Justin and Cincinnati will jump off the curb if we
- 33:53Speaker 1: do that. Nature Boy writes in answering the Call of
- 33:55Speaker 1: the Wild, and he says no worries. He says, the
- 34:02Speaker 1: Dodgers still have Kik if they need a relief pitcher. Well,
- 34:06Speaker 1: Dave Roberts really liked him in that spot, really liked
- 34:08Speaker 1: him in that spot. The Bills Monster writes and says
- 34:12Speaker 1: the trade deadline is voting like it's a Chicago precinc
- 34:16Speaker 1: in the nineteen sixties. Vote early, often and with zero
- 34:19Speaker 1: regard for logic. GMS wheeling and dealing like they're playing
- 34:22Speaker 1: Major League Baseball. The show on Rookie Mode trade deadline chaos. Now,
- 34:30Speaker 1: let's see here. Mark from Queens says that E Dog
- 34:35Speaker 1: from Long Island is the worst. Now Mark is from
- 34:38Speaker 1: Queens via Arlington, Texas. But he says, E dog who.
- 34:43Speaker 1: I've noticed the guys in New York there must be
- 34:45Speaker 1: something because we have a group of people from the
- 34:49Speaker 1: boroughs of New York City that call the show, and
- 34:52Speaker 1: they're sporadic. They're very sporadic. Like you've got e Dog
- 34:57Speaker 1: who calls like every day for a week, and then
- 35:01Speaker 1: you've got Steven Manhattan who does the same thing. And
- 35:05Speaker 1: then our buddy Uncle Ma who's now over He's from Brooklyn,
- 35:09Speaker 1: but he's over in Jersey now and he's I believe,
- 35:12Speaker 1: working the dreaded day shift Uncle Mo. So he doesn't
- 35:14Speaker 1: call much at all unless his kid wakes up late
- 35:18Speaker 1: at night. He has nothing to do, so he calls
- 35:21Speaker 1: the show, but other than that, not so much. Yeah, exactly,
- 35:26Speaker 1: it is the Ben Maler Show. Time now for the
- 35:28Speaker 1: who am I Game? And this is where we pretend
- 35:32Speaker 1: to be somebody else's home to who am I? Game?
- 35:34Speaker 1: So a Uhaneo Suarez thirty six home runs the most
- 35:39Speaker 1: by a player in a season prior to the mid
- 35:42Speaker 1: season trade deadline in baseball history. The prior record for
- 35:47Speaker 1: most home runs and then being traded to the deadline
- 35:50Speaker 1: was held by me who again the newest member of
