Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: I played Detroit. Nobody played this song when they walked
- 0:03Speaker 1: up at their place.
- 0:05Speaker 2: Okay, well it's our place exactly. Does it hit differently
- 0:09Speaker 2: that you're in Detroit listening?
- 0:11Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I'm going across eight mile after this.
- 0:15Speaker 2: I know I will not. It's Chuck and Buck. We

- 1:00Speaker 2: last night here to Detroit, Michigan, had a nice overnight's
- 1:03Speaker 2: stay uh, and are now here at the iHeart Studios
- 1:07Speaker 2: in Detroit, where we have been treated, uh, you know,
- 1:11Speaker 2: sort of like C three p O by the e walks.
- 1:14Speaker 2: They have just carried us around like we're gods. Yeah yeah,
- 1:17Speaker 2: and understandably so. I mean the chanting of our names
- 1:20Speaker 2: every time we walk out is it's endearing. Well, but
- 1:23Speaker 2: it's a little makes me feel a little bit awkward.
- 1:25Speaker 2: They did just post up a bunch of like yogurt,
- 1:28Speaker 2: like they have an open yogurt for us too.
- 1:31Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sure that was for us.
- 1:33Speaker 2: Interesting that only they are eating it and we haven't been. Yeah,
- 1:38Speaker 2: well yeah, I guess it's just assumed.
- 1:41Speaker 1: Yeah, well, of course, very much so assumed.
- 1:43Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:45Speaker 2: These studios, by the way, are nice, Like there's a
- 1:49Speaker 2: little it's like the same equipment. Like iHeart really invested
- 1:52Speaker 2: heavily in white sterile tables and so they have like
- 1:58Speaker 2: the same to court. We have that red room Ashley
- 2:00Speaker 2: that you enter the theation with terrifying red box. Yeah,
- 2:05Speaker 2: terrifying red box that you're you're never one hundred percent
- 2:08Speaker 2: sure you're not going to be locked in forever every
- 2:10Speaker 2: time you pass through there. Yes, they've got one of those,
- 2:14Speaker 2: but there's just a little bit more charm. It's an
- 2:17Speaker 2: older building. It's got like brick to it, and these
- 2:21Speaker 2: people have really gone out of their way to make
- 2:23Speaker 2: it feel a little funkier, a little hipper, a little
- 2:25Speaker 2: posher than what we do back at home, to be honest.
- 2:29Speaker 1: Yeah, just feels like a red and white box.
- 2:32Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, really really nice, really nice. I love
- 2:36Speaker 2: what you've done with the place here in Detroit.
- 2:38Speaker 3: Good job.
- 2:39Speaker 2: Why do we move ours into the space needle or something.
- 2:41Speaker 2: Let's be different here.
- 2:42Speaker 3: We could be different a little bit.
- 2:43Speaker 2: And there are old buildings in Seattle too, Yeah there are,
- 2:46Speaker 2: but you know, does anyone have a space needle? Uh so?
- 2:51Speaker 2: And there's also like a little store downstairs. And it
- 2:54Speaker 2: just says Detroit versus everybody, And I get that. It
- 2:58Speaker 2: kind of feels that way.
- 2:59Speaker 3: I would think in Detroit.
- 3:01Speaker 2: Your football team is sort of the version of our
- 3:03Speaker 2: baseball team.
- 3:05Speaker 3: You've had some good years, you've.
- 3:06Speaker 2: Had some electrifying players over the years, but you have
- 3:10Speaker 2: not been to the super Bowl. You're the Detroit Lions.
- 3:12Speaker 2: You haven't been to the super Bowl. And yet they've
- 3:15Speaker 2: got a team that has a chance, has had a
- 3:18Speaker 2: chance each of the last couple of years, and certainly
- 3:20Speaker 2: has a chance. Bucky just picked them a factor Fiction
- 3:22Speaker 2: for goodness sake, to meet the Chiefs for goodness sake.
- 3:26Speaker 2: So it's kind of a parallel there. You know, they've
- 3:29Speaker 2: been rooting for a team that I'm sure that they
- 3:32Speaker 2: don't always. I'm sure they think the worst is right
- 3:36Speaker 2: around the corner. And that's sort of the way Dustin
- 3:39Speaker 2: Nickerson and a lot of Mariner fans feel. So we're
- 3:42Speaker 2: sort of the equivalent of that. But you know, they
- 3:45Speaker 2: feel like it's Detroit versus everybody. It's an entire store
- 3:48Speaker 2: with T shirts every single franchise. They have Lions Tigers,
- 3:52Speaker 2: Tigers versus everybody, Lions versus everybody.
- 3:54Speaker 3: That's sort of their.
- 3:55Speaker 2: Mentality apparently, and their sports scene here in Detroit. And
- 4:01Speaker 2: you know, maybe maybe we don't quite subscribe to that,
- 4:06Speaker 2: but certainly with this Mariners team, it's like, sorry, bubs,
- 4:10Speaker 2: you're not the lovable losers in this series. No, we
- 4:13Speaker 2: want it more. We're a little hungrier. You got tickets
- 4:16Speaker 2: going for like eighty five bucks right now. We just
- 4:19Speaker 2: came out of forty seven thousand strong for two straight nights,
- 4:23Speaker 2: and we are hungrier than what you are, no matter
- 4:27Speaker 2: how hungry you think you are.
- 4:28Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I think there's them against everybody thing. Remember
- 4:32Speaker 1: a couple of years ago with the Michigan fiasco, all
- 4:34Speaker 1: that stuff that was going on, the controversy. Then it
- 4:37Speaker 1: was Michigan versus everybody the year they went on and
- 4:39Speaker 1: won it all anyway, So I think that they're just
- 4:41Speaker 1: now taking that to all of their sports teams. But yeah,
- 4:45Speaker 1: you know, you ain't starved like we're starved for this thing.
- 4:47Speaker 1: There's just sorry about it. And ultimately, I think that
- 4:51Speaker 1: this team was up in arms. Now they won a series,
- 4:54Speaker 1: and they've won one game and in this series so far.
- 4:58Speaker 1: But you just got to figure just a week ago,
- 5:00Speaker 1: two weeks ago, maybe this team was in the middle
- 5:02Speaker 1: of one of the biggest collapses ever in the second half.
- 5:06Speaker 1: I mean, I remember over hearing the bartender talking to
- 5:09Speaker 1: some of the folks, some TV people from Seattle that
- 5:12Speaker 1: were in Tommy's The Wonderful Ball that it is yesterday,
- 5:15Speaker 1: and he's like, I just you guys are just better
- 5:17Speaker 1: than we are here. Yeah, it is. It's nice that
- 5:23Speaker 1: you guys are honest with yourself flairity. You should get
- 5:26Speaker 1: ready to be honest with yourself today too, the Midwest
- 5:28Speaker 1: self awareness.
- 5:29Speaker 2: You know, he's I mean, he was at one point.
- 5:33Speaker 2: I don't know if Jack Flairdy ever became a great pitcher,
- 5:36Speaker 2: but he was certainly reached very good status. And look,
- 5:39Speaker 2: I got a pretty harsh.
- 5:41Speaker 3: You know definition.
- 5:42Speaker 2: I only want to call something great if it truly
- 5:44Speaker 2: is great, So I don't throw the word great around loosely.
- 5:47Speaker 2: So I'm not gonna I'm gonna gonna throw it around
- 5:49Speaker 2: to describe Jack Flaherty at any time during his career.
- 5:52Speaker 2: But at one point he was very good and it
- 5:54Speaker 2: looked like he was on the verge of becoming great
- 5:57Speaker 2: for a long period of time. I Uh, from what
- 6:00Speaker 2: I understand in Saint Louis, there were some attitudinal issues.
- 6:03Speaker 2: He seemed to be angry at everybody in the world,
- 6:06Speaker 2: and he still kind of carries that chip on his shoulder.
- 6:09Speaker 2: But he got here to Detroit. He wasn't asked to
- 6:11Speaker 2: be the man that was that belonged to Trek Schoubl
- 6:15Speaker 2: and he ended up having a very good year last
- 6:17Speaker 2: year and his first year with the Detroit Tigers. This
- 6:20Speaker 2: year's come back to reality. There there goes gravity nice uh,
- 6:25Speaker 2: and so he's come back to a reality a little bit.
- 6:28Speaker 2: And yet the numbers are kind of weird with him
- 6:32Speaker 2: the two thirty nine batting average against for the season.
- 6:35Speaker 2: That's a pretty good number. That's a that's a good
- 6:38Speaker 2: number for a starting pitcher. To have a two thirty
- 6:41Speaker 2: nine opponent's batting average against seven sixteen ops not terrible
- 6:46Speaker 2: and so but he has the four point six four
- 6:49Speaker 2: ERA overall, that's not good. He's got the five point
- 6:53Speaker 2: two seven road Er. Maybe you understand why they prefer
- 6:57Speaker 2: to pitch him at home, which he'll get to do tonight.
- 6:59Speaker 2: And he does have some pretty serious splits. Six sixty
- 7:02Speaker 2: six ops versus right handers, which is solid, but the
- 7:06Speaker 2: seven sixty two ops against left handers, so I guess
- 7:09Speaker 2: it's a long way of saying he can be gotten too.
- 7:13Speaker 2: He sometimes is his own worst enemy. He has a
- 7:16Speaker 2: very talented pitcher, there's no question about that. But against
- 7:22Speaker 2: a lineup that we're probably gonna put almost an entirely
- 7:26Speaker 2: left handed line I would imagine we were playing Canzone
- 7:30Speaker 2: over Rollblaze tonight.
- 7:32Speaker 3: So or maybe both.
- 7:33Speaker 2: Of them are in the lineup and Canzone's the DH,
- 7:36Speaker 2: but it sounds they can get to him with left handers.
- 7:38Speaker 2: So we'll see how I got to figure out the
- 7:40Speaker 2: Naylor situation. See how they might want to use Rayley.
- 7:43Speaker 2: I can almost guarantee you can zones in the lineup tonight.
- 7:47Speaker 2: So this is somebody that, yeah, you can't take him lightly,
- 7:51Speaker 2: but he's no Logan Gilbert.
- 7:53Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, I mean he's he He threw in the
- 7:57Speaker 1: series against Cleveland and went four and two thirds, only
- 8:00Speaker 1: gave up three hits in one run, So it was
- 8:03Speaker 1: a good outing. Like it's just one like you kept
- 8:05Speaker 1: your team in the ballgame, and and and and so
- 8:08Speaker 1: I mean he's capable of doing that, and really anybody's
- 8:11Speaker 1: capable of doing that in the big league last year,
- 8:13Speaker 1: though his playoffs last year were atrocious. I mean he
- 8:16Speaker 1: was with the Dodgers at the time, but he had
- 8:18Speaker 1: like a seven to three era, I mean, giving up
- 8:21Speaker 1: a lot.
- 8:21Speaker 3: Of runs and a lot of home runs.
- 8:23Speaker 1: And so hopefully we can channel that guy a little
- 8:26Speaker 1: bit today. And yet it really boils down to I
- 8:29Speaker 1: think he's a guy that you can get right. We
- 8:30Speaker 1: were talking about Trek Schouble and the fear that comes
- 8:32Speaker 1: with that is his stuff is crazy, nasty, and he
- 8:35Speaker 1: doesn't make a lot of mistakes, so you've got to
- 8:37Speaker 1: you gotta capitalize every time he does. I think Clardy
- 8:39Speaker 1: will make a couple more mistakes, you just still need
- 8:41Speaker 1: to capitalize on it offensively. And then I just kind
- 8:44Speaker 1: of hope that Logan Gilbert goes out there and does
- 8:46Speaker 1: Logan Gilbert things and puts up a bunch of zeros.
- 8:48Speaker 2: I think Logan Gilbert's going to be fine. I mean,
- 8:50Speaker 2: I'm not going to say that he leaves the game
- 8:53Speaker 2: and the seventh inning with a shutout and you know,
- 8:56Speaker 2: two hit shutout, I'm not going to put that on him.
- 8:59Speaker 2: But I think he keeps you certainly in the game.
- 9:01Speaker 2: He's gonna keep that number low for the Tigers. Maybe
- 9:04Speaker 2: they get him for a run or two. But what
- 9:06Speaker 2: we talked about after the postgame and during the postgame
- 9:10Speaker 2: show in game number two on Sunday Night, brought to
- 9:13Speaker 2: you by snowqual Me Casino, was seeing more people contribute
- 9:18Speaker 2: to game number two than they did to.
- 9:20Speaker 3: Game number one.
- 9:22Speaker 2: So I think Gilbert gets the job done. But I
- 9:24Speaker 2: think where we win this game tonight is this is
- 9:28Speaker 2: where you tap into the depth of that offensive lineup
- 9:31Speaker 2: that you have assembled, thanks in part to the acquisitions
- 9:36Speaker 2: at the trading deadline. And again we don't know if
- 9:38Speaker 2: Naylor's going to play tonight, but I even went out him.
- 9:42Speaker 2: I think it's just a deeper lineup than what you've
- 9:44Speaker 2: had in a number of years. On Game number one,
- 9:46Speaker 2: only two guys even showed up, and in Game number
- 9:50Speaker 2: two you got more contributions from more guys off.
- 9:53Speaker 3: Of that roster.
- 9:53Speaker 2: I'm expecting that to escalate into tonight. I think we're
- 9:56Speaker 2: gonna not only get more contributions, I think we're gonna
- 9:59Speaker 2: get some damn from the lower part of the lineup
- 10:01Speaker 2: tonight against Flaherty. And I wouldn't be surprised if Dom
- 10:04Speaker 2: Canzone isn't authoring.
- 10:05Speaker 3: Some of that damage. Yeah.
- 10:07Speaker 1: Well, I mean he's been hot the last month of
- 10:08Speaker 1: the season. He was really swinging. He most certainly deserves
- 10:11Speaker 1: to have the opportunity to go, and this is the
- 10:13Speaker 1: prime situation to do it. The whole Naylor thing throws
- 10:18Speaker 1: everything kind of up in the air a little bit,
- 10:20Speaker 1: just because I think it makes it almost a guarantee
- 10:23Speaker 1: Canzone is in even if he probably would have been
- 10:26Speaker 1: even if Naylor was here. But the idea then of okay, well,
- 10:30Speaker 1: then is Luke Rayley in there? If not, then are
- 10:32Speaker 1: you gonna dh Luke Rayley? Or would you still want Roebliss,
- 10:35Speaker 1: because Robust before the injury would have been a guy
- 10:38Speaker 1: you just presume would have been in the lineup every day,
- 10:41Speaker 1: right he left, he nothing because of the spark that
- 10:43Speaker 1: he brings. So I am interested to see what Dan's
- 10:45Speaker 1: going to be doing when he's writing out the lineup
- 10:47Speaker 1: card today.
- 10:48Speaker 2: Yeah well yeah, I mean, maybe it belongs to Roeblaz
- 10:51Speaker 2: and ride and Canzone's your DH, and then Naylor's at
- 10:54Speaker 2: first under an ideal world. If not, maybe it is
- 10:58Speaker 2: Raleigh at first base. I don't if fired, he splits,
- 11:02Speaker 2: I would think you want a left hand, left handed
- 11:05Speaker 2: hitter in the lineup, Raley at first, and then Roblay
- 11:09Speaker 2: stays and right can Zone is still your DH at
- 11:11Speaker 2: that point. So I mean, if you did have to
- 11:15Speaker 2: move away from Naylor, I guess there's a possibility that
- 11:19Speaker 2: you go defense at third, But I'm not sure Suarez
- 11:23Speaker 2: is even an upgrade at first base over Rayley, who
- 11:26Speaker 2: wasn't even good this year defensively at first base, and
- 11:29Speaker 2: it's certainly a drop off over.
- 11:31Speaker 3: There no matter what you do beyond Naylor. Yeah, well,
- 11:35Speaker 3: that's a definite.
- 11:36Speaker 1: If Naylor's is still beside his wife awaiting the birth
- 11:41Speaker 1: of a child. Yeah, you're going you're taking a significant
- 11:44Speaker 1: step backwards defensively, regardless of who you put over there,
- 11:47Speaker 1: you don't have anybody that can play it as well
- 11:49Speaker 1: as Naylor does. And so do you want to then
- 11:52Speaker 1: just keep Gino in his normal spot or do you
- 11:54Speaker 1: want to go with what you feel like is an
- 11:56Speaker 1: upgrade defensively, but most certainly not an upgrade off, even
- 12:00Speaker 1: though I like the idea of him going out there
- 12:03Speaker 1: and grinding Ben Williamson, that is, going out and grinding
- 12:05Speaker 1: a couple of abs, put the ball in play and
- 12:06Speaker 1: see what happens. But either way, I mean, I think
- 12:09Speaker 1: the beauty is is that you kind of have a
- 12:11Speaker 1: rose arena. Hopefully he can get back on track Cal
- 12:14Speaker 1: and Julio and just basically a top part of your roster,
- 12:16Speaker 1: and then if the bottom part of your lineup chips
- 12:18Speaker 1: in a little bit, yeah you could.
- 12:20Speaker 3: A five spot, put up a five to six spot.
- 12:21Speaker 3: We're good.
- 12:22Speaker 2: I gotta feel that though tonight I think like five
- 12:24Speaker 2: two six two. That's kind of what I'm feeling for
- 12:28Speaker 2: this evening. I do think we're gonna get major not
- 12:31Speaker 2: just contributions. I think we're gonna get some damage outside
- 12:34Speaker 2: of Julio and cal And and Polonko, who obviously are
- 12:39Speaker 2: the guys that have done They're the guys that have
- 12:41Speaker 2: done the damage so far in this series. That said,
- 12:44Speaker 2: it doesn't mean that I don't want those three guys,
- 12:48Speaker 2: you know, contributing, of course. And I think Julio Rodriguez
- 12:52Speaker 2: has really set quite the course for himself. He is
- 12:55Speaker 2: off to a tremendous start here in the playoffs. I
- 12:58Speaker 2: think he is somebody that you try so hard. He
- 13:02Speaker 2: wants to come through so badly that sometimes that can
- 13:05Speaker 2: get him outside of his game and his approach at
- 13:09Speaker 2: the plate. But for him to have gotten off to
- 13:11Speaker 2: the great start in Game number one, even in a loss,
- 13:15Speaker 2: but to get three hits that night and pretty much
- 13:17Speaker 2: be the only guy that was doing any damage at
- 13:20Speaker 2: the plate. And then in Game number two, yeah, Derek
- 13:23Speaker 2: Scouble kind of toyed with him. He didn't get a
- 13:26Speaker 2: ball out of the infield and those first three at bats.
- 13:29Speaker 2: But the moment you went to somebody who wasn't an ace,
- 13:33Speaker 2: the moment you went to Kyle Finnegan, he's ready to
- 13:36Speaker 2: jump all over. The moment you didn't have schoobl in
- 13:40Speaker 2: the game once you went to Finnegan. He was ready
- 13:42Speaker 2: to jump all over that reliever who he had seen
- 13:46Speaker 2: in back to back nights. So for him to be
- 13:48Speaker 2: off to this good start, I mean, this isn't just
- 13:51Speaker 2: a great sign, maybe a harbinger of things to come
- 13:55Speaker 2: for this series, but maybe for the entire playoff if
- 13:58Speaker 2: we can advance. I think Julio getting off to a
- 14:02Speaker 2: great start, feeling confident, I think could end.
- 14:06Speaker 3: Up providing huge dividends.
- 14:08Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 14:08Speaker 1: Well, yesterday he did a press conference and it was
- 14:12Speaker 1: one of the more articulate press conferences I've seen him,
- 14:16Speaker 1: or any Mariner do for that matter. And what I
- 14:18Speaker 1: mean by that, he's always a good interview, but it
- 14:20Speaker 1: was very cool, it was very chill. It was very confident,
- 14:26Speaker 1: just quietly confident the way in which he was answering questions.
- 14:30Speaker 1: And I think that comes from him being one of
- 14:32Speaker 1: the hottest hitters in the second half period. But then
- 14:34Speaker 1: when you get into the postseason, it's different. It's a
- 14:37Speaker 1: different season. It's one of those you don't you know,
- 14:40Speaker 1: the stakes are higher, and so you don't want to
- 14:42Speaker 1: kind of backslide into bad habits. And so for him
- 14:45Speaker 1: to start off the way that he has in these
- 14:47Speaker 1: couple games is definitely something where I think he's feeling
- 14:50Speaker 1: real good for the flight here to Detroit. When he
- 14:53Speaker 1: goes to the yard, I think he's feeling real good
- 14:55Speaker 1: about himself. Now, you got to just stay within yourself
- 14:57Speaker 1: and when Flaerty makes a mistake, make him pay for it.
- 15:00Speaker 1: I'm expecting big things for him just this entire postseason,
- 15:02Speaker 1: because he's a dude that when he gets hot and
- 15:04Speaker 1: his mind's right, when.
- 15:05Speaker 3: His mind and I think his mind's right.
- 15:07Speaker 2: Yeah, so I think he's not just a dangerous element
- 15:10Speaker 2: for Jack Flaherty tonight, but you know, hopefully with an advancement,
- 15:15Speaker 2: I mean, I think that we could be in store
- 15:17Speaker 2: for just a really memorable I mean Cal, it was
- 15:20Speaker 2: the year of Cal the regular season, and he had
- 15:22Speaker 2: to sit back there and watch Cal kind of overtake
- 15:25Speaker 2: him as the face of the franchise. And he's the
- 15:29Speaker 2: guy that's getting the MVP chance from the crowd, and
- 15:34Speaker 2: he took it well. I mean he with a smile
- 15:36Speaker 2: on his face. It's not like he sat over there
- 15:39Speaker 2: in the corner and pouted. He had to come out
- 15:40Speaker 2: of his own first half slump. But don't think for
- 15:43Speaker 2: a second that Julio Rodriguez doesn't have that thing burning
- 15:46Speaker 2: inside his heart where he wants that same thing he
- 15:49Speaker 2: he you know, yeah, Cal might end up being the
- 15:52Speaker 2: MVP of the American League. Julio Rodriguez, why don't you
- 15:54Speaker 2: be the MVP of the World Series?
- 15:56Speaker 3: How about that?
- 15:57Speaker 2: How about we make that a goal and we can
- 15:58Speaker 2: chance some MVP letters at you later on.
- 16:01Speaker 1: I think that the beauty of this team is that
- 16:03Speaker 1: there isn't a selfishness of I want him to not
- 16:07Speaker 1: be it so I get to be it, right. I
- 16:09Speaker 1: think it's one of those I think Julio is while
- 16:12Speaker 1: he there has been a passing, if you will, of
- 16:14Speaker 1: the who's the face of the franchise at this point
- 16:17Speaker 1: in time, I think that he's gladly like cheering on
- 16:20Speaker 1: Cal and watching this amazing season he's having. On the
- 16:23Speaker 1: flip side of it, I can guarantee you Cal is
- 16:25Speaker 1: a okay with him getting the driving in the game
- 16:28Speaker 1: winning run or having a big knock or having a
- 16:31Speaker 1: great postseason and helping carry this squad. I don't think
- 16:33Speaker 1: there's any part of these and that's not that that
- 16:35Speaker 1: stuff happens. You will have selfish dudes that don't want
- 16:39Speaker 1: you to succeed because they want the limelight. I don't
- 16:41Speaker 1: think this team has those type of guys.
- 16:43Speaker 2: Yeah yeah. Meanwhile, Jared Kelnick's sitting at home going. I
- 16:46Speaker 2: gave him his nickname. I wanted to be a part
- 16:48Speaker 2: of it too, Jared, I know, I agree. I think
- 16:52Speaker 2: it is sad. I hope somebody picks him up. He
- 16:55Speaker 2: got waved by the Braves for goodness sake. Wave just
- 16:57Speaker 2: released by. He's his career's not done.
- 17:00Speaker 1: He maybe will never be able to figure it out
- 17:02Speaker 1: between the years enough to be a good big leaguer.
- 17:04Speaker 1: But he's gonna get another opportunity.
- 17:05Speaker 3: He does too much.
- 17:06Speaker 2: Corettle Rockies not signed Jared Kalmick if he's available on
- 17:09Speaker 2: the waiver wire. He doesn't make any money. How do
- 17:11Speaker 2: the Colorado Rockies and they're desperate, Smike not say somebody will.
- 17:14Speaker 2: We'll take a chance on a guy that was neck
- 17:16Speaker 2: and neck with Julio Rodriguez and considered a better prospect
- 17:20Speaker 2: than Cal Raleigh and that in the Mariners organization four
- 17:23Speaker 2: years ago.
- 17:23Speaker 1: His tools jump off page. It's just the between the years,
- 17:26Speaker 1: which is the most important tool. He struggles with.
- 17:29Speaker 2: You know, sharp between the ears?
- 17:31Speaker 1: Who fits you yeah, he is from Detroit, except.
- 17:35Speaker 2: That he's from Detroit. So I don't know what we're
- 17:37Speaker 2: gonna do. We've been talking trash about everybody from Detroit
- 17:40Speaker 2: all morning long.
- 17:41Speaker 3: We're gonna keep it going.
- 17:42Speaker 2: And and yet we have our friend ever it fits you, uh.
- 17:46Speaker 3: And he's my friend.
- 17:47Speaker 2: He's very nice too, yeah.
- 17:49Speaker 3: Really nice, but he's not my friend today or tomorrow.
- 17:52Speaker 3: Not Well, this series is going on.
- 17:54Speaker 2: See how we're gonna handle this interview. I feel like
- 17:57Speaker 2: I need a trash I think we stand him up,
- 17:59Speaker 2: but I also want to be really nice to him.
- 18:02Speaker 2: So Evert fits you. The voice of the cracking joins us.
- 18:05Speaker 2: Next we'll see what the Detroit Man has to say
- 18:08Speaker 2: about his team getting ready to lose the series. Sports
- 18:11Speaker 2: Radio ninety three point three kJ r f M jamming
- 18:14Speaker 2: out in his room and mom saying, turn that noise down,
- 18:17Speaker 2: and he's like, Mom, it's Jack White, right.
- 18:21Speaker 3: I don't.
- 18:21Speaker 2: I don't know. Maybe I'm getting a little slept up
- 18:23Speaker 2: in it, no doubt, but I'm in Detroit and I
- 18:25Speaker 2: feel like everywhere I go Evertt fits, he's with me.
- 18:28Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I get it.
- 18:29Speaker 1: And normally, like literally every single leather day outside of
- 18:33Speaker 1: this week. I would be excited about it. Instead it
- 18:36Speaker 1: makes me better. I don't like it. Jeez, this is
- 18:41Speaker 1: like this, Everett hangs out. You can't say that about
- 18:44Speaker 1: a friend. Oh what I'm saying now.
- 18:46Speaker 2: The voice of the crack and Everett fits you is
- 18:49Speaker 2: with us. Good morning, Everett.
- 18:52Speaker 5: Not good are we? Are we really friends? If we
- 18:55Speaker 5: can't talk smack about one another? I appreciate it. I
- 19:00Speaker 5: welcome it. And Bucky, it's Chuck right. It's like you
- 19:06Speaker 5: had that conversation with my mom. It was literally thirteen
- 19:10Speaker 5: fourteen year old Everett turned that music down. It's eleven o'clock.
- 19:14Speaker 2: Go to sleep, all right, So give us some advice.
- 19:19Speaker 2: What's something that we should be doing. I mean, we're
- 19:22Speaker 2: not gonna have much downtime, but if we get any downtime,
- 19:25Speaker 2: what do we gotta make sure that we do Here
- 19:26Speaker 2: in Detroit?
- 19:28Speaker 5: You gotta get Detroit style pizza, all right. You gotta
- 19:31Speaker 5: go find the sixth Corner Pizza. There's a couple of
- 19:37Speaker 5: places you can go. Jets As always a classic place
- 19:42Speaker 5: in Detroit, but there's a few downtown by the ballpark.
- 19:46Speaker 4: So get some Detroit style pizza.
- 19:48Speaker 5: Also, maybe about a mile from where you are.
- 19:51Speaker 4: There's a Coney Island.
- 19:52Speaker 5: There's two Coney islands. There is American Coney Island and
- 19:57Speaker 5: there's Lafayette Coney Island chili dogs. There is a lifelong,
- 20:02Speaker 5: long standing tradition of who's better. Are you a Lafayette
- 20:06Speaker 5: cony dog person or you an American coney dog person.
- 20:10Speaker 5: There's one out of the suburbs called National. We don't
- 20:13Speaker 5: talk about National. It's American, it's Lafayette. They're right next door.
- 20:17Speaker 5: Go get one, do a taste tests, and you decide
- 20:19Speaker 5: who's got the better coney in the city of Detroit.
- 20:22Speaker 5: So those are the two things that I would recommend
- 20:24Speaker 5: that you do.
- 20:25Speaker 2: We were driving to our hotel and I said to Bucky,
- 20:27Speaker 2: you know, I don't know what Detroit food that they're
- 20:30Speaker 2: famous for, other than the pizza. I don't know what
- 20:33Speaker 2: they'rea and so we asked. As soon as we got
- 20:36Speaker 2: to the hotel, we asked Danielle, who was awesome and
- 20:38Speaker 2: I hope she loses Games three and four. But we
- 20:41Speaker 2: asked Danielle about what's the food, What food are you
- 20:45Speaker 2: known for? And to my utter shock, she goes Coney
- 20:49Speaker 2: Island food. I'm like, wait a minute, Coney Island in
- 20:52Speaker 2: New York, and apparently that's what you guys are known
- 20:56Speaker 2: for here in Detroit. Coney Island food. That was stunning
- 20:58Speaker 2: to me.
- 21:00Speaker 4: Yep, Coley Island. So chili, dog and fries. I'm telling
- 21:03Speaker 4: you it's Try it.
- 21:05Speaker 1: You will not be appointed. I did last night. I
- 21:08Speaker 1: had some shoe string fries with chili and cheese on.
- 21:10Speaker 1: He went right to it.
- 21:12Speaker 4: There you go.
- 21:13Speaker 2: You well, I know you wish you were with us
- 21:17Speaker 2: hanging out of the ballpark tonight.
- 21:18Speaker 3: That'd be fun.
- 21:19Speaker 4: I do, I do, I really do.
- 21:22Speaker 5: Listen, I've not I've not actually been to a game
- 21:26Speaker 5: at Camerica Park probably in ten years. I mean I've
- 21:30Speaker 5: been gone for a long time, so it's been a
- 21:32Speaker 5: long it's been a while since.
- 21:34Speaker 4: I've been back.
- 21:35Speaker 5: But no, I mean, you guys are in for a treat.
- 21:37Speaker 4: You know, the last.
- 21:39Speaker 5: Decade of Detroit sports outside of the Lions, have not
- 21:43Speaker 5: been kind to Detroit people. So you were you were
- 21:47Speaker 5: going to be experiencing a very rare home playoff appearance
- 21:52Speaker 5: in the city of Detroit over the last ten fifteen years.
- 21:55Speaker 2: Well, I think under different circumstances maybe you would be
- 21:58Speaker 2: with us. But obviously you guys some big things to
- 22:01Speaker 2: do this week. So opening days coming up on Thursday.
- 22:04Speaker 2: How fired up are you for some Crack and hockey, sir.
- 22:08Speaker 4: I'm excited. I'm very excited.
- 22:10Speaker 5: I think I think training camp for me as well
- 22:13Speaker 5: as for a lot of other people, opened up some
- 22:15Speaker 5: eyes that I feel a lot of the criticism that
- 22:19Speaker 5: this Cracking team has been getting maybe a little bit misplaced.
- 22:25Speaker 5: I think this team is shaping up to be better
- 22:29Speaker 5: than a lot of people are giving them credit for.
- 22:32Speaker 5: I mean, I think with the new style, the new
- 22:34Speaker 5: system of play that that lane Lambert is trying to instill,
- 22:40Speaker 5: you know, it's going to be a very defensive minded
- 22:44Speaker 5: style like it's going to be a very hard working, grinding,
- 22:49Speaker 5: depth team game. You go back to year two, I
- 22:52Speaker 5: say this all the time, that style of play is
- 22:55Speaker 5: what led the Crack into the playoffs. I mean they
- 22:58Speaker 5: had thirteen guys with rear highs of goals, assists, or points.
- 23:03Speaker 5: And then you know every team in the NHL that
- 23:05Speaker 5: they will tell you through those first couple of years,
- 23:08Speaker 5: but especially in year two when the team made the playoffs,
- 23:12Speaker 5: you know, the Kraken they may not be the most
- 23:15Speaker 5: talented team, they may not have the superstar, they may
- 23:18Speaker 5: not have this or that, but man, they are going
- 23:20Speaker 5: to outwork you every single night. You know that you
- 23:24Speaker 5: played this team, you always lead games against Seattle herting
- 23:29Speaker 5: with new bruises or you're just gased. And I feel
- 23:32Speaker 5: like that's the type of style and that's the type
- 23:35Speaker 5: of team that we're setting up to see this season.
- 23:39Speaker 3: Fitzia.
- 23:40Speaker 1: We talked to Joey to court earlier today and I
- 23:44Speaker 1: had asked him about the youngsters and the Nyman and
- 23:47Speaker 1: Winterton and Caton that are all making this opening day
- 23:50Speaker 1: roster and just asked him about how that must feel,
- 23:52Speaker 1: right because it was just a couple of years ago
- 23:54Speaker 1: that he had that same experience. But I'm going to
- 23:56Speaker 1: ask you, how big of a role do you expect
- 23:59Speaker 1: these youngsters to play, because I mean, for the most part,
- 24:02Speaker 1: they're they're fairly unproven at the highest level.
- 24:05Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, and listen, you're not.
- 24:07Speaker 5: There are no gimmes, there are no charity.
- 24:10Speaker 4: You know, roster spots in the NHL.
- 24:12Speaker 5: These guys have earned their spots and and they're expected
- 24:15Speaker 5: to produce. And I think in the case of Yannie Newman,
- 24:19Speaker 5: we saw what he's capable of with a lethal shot.
- 24:22Speaker 5: He's you know, a big physical body. He's learning how
- 24:25Speaker 5: to use his strengths and improve in the NHL every
- 24:29Speaker 5: single day. We saw that last year in training camp.
- 24:32Speaker 5: You know, he at one point let the NHL in
- 24:35Speaker 5: preseason goals. Now, say what you want. I know Al
- 24:38Speaker 5: Koniski calls them PPPs preseason for ten points.
- 24:42Speaker 4: But listen, it still goes a long way. It still
- 24:45Speaker 4: goes a long way and.
- 24:47Speaker 5: Helping to to grow the confidence. So I think Janny
- 24:49Speaker 5: Newman is gonna be a guy that's going to be
- 24:51Speaker 5: leaned on Bertie Katton. You know, his first you know,
- 24:54Speaker 5: his first couple of games in the preseason, you could
- 24:57Speaker 5: tell there was going to be that adjustment.
- 24:59Speaker 4: To the NHL.
- 25:00Speaker 5: With a Laye Lambert moves him over to the wing.
- 25:02Speaker 5: I thought that he had his better three games of
- 25:06Speaker 5: the preseason on the wing. He was a little bit
- 25:08Speaker 5: more creative. He was allowed to showcase that skill and
- 25:12Speaker 5: that speed and that creativity that he's known for.
- 25:16Speaker 4: So I think he's going to adjust well over there.
- 25:18Speaker 5: And with Ryan Winterton, this is a big opportunity for
- 25:21Speaker 5: him because when he was drafted in the third round
- 25:24Speaker 5: back in twenty one, he was seen as that middle
- 25:28Speaker 5: six power forward, think of a Jaden Schwartz type of player.
- 25:32Speaker 5: That's the kind of guy that they want Ryan Winterton
- 25:35Speaker 5: to be. And now he's going to have the opportunity
- 25:38Speaker 5: to get a consistent NHL shift. We've seen it and
- 25:40Speaker 5: flashes during his call ups over the past couple of years.
- 25:44Speaker 5: But now he's going to be able to slide into
- 25:46Speaker 5: the lineup on a regular basis and get that regular
- 25:52Speaker 5: shift that I think a lot of young guys need.
- 25:55Speaker 4: To be successful.
- 25:57Speaker 5: You know, when you look at a guy like Shane Wright,
- 25:59Speaker 5: he was in and he was out. He was in,
- 26:01Speaker 5: he was out. If you can keep these guys in
- 26:04Speaker 5: the lineup for three, four or five games at a time,
- 26:06Speaker 5: get their timing right, get their confidence up, not overreact
- 26:10Speaker 5: to every mistake. These guys are going to make mistakes.
- 26:13Speaker 5: These things happen, but it's how they react and how
- 26:16Speaker 5: they respond and how they recover from those mistakes.
- 26:19Speaker 4: I think that are going to leave the biggest impact.
- 26:21Speaker 2: Well, I'm a little worried that Mike Menton's too obsessed
- 26:25Speaker 2: with Berkeley Catton. He just talks about I think he
- 26:30Speaker 2: carries a small little picture of him in his wallet.
- 26:33Speaker 2: That's something like that.
- 26:34Speaker 5: He's got the you know, the Hey Arnold shrine that
- 26:38Speaker 5: Helga had to Arnold.
- 26:39Speaker 4: You know in the.
- 26:39Speaker 5: Corner, he's got birthday cat and he's stuff in the corner.
- 26:42Speaker 5: I listen, I get it.
- 26:44Speaker 4: I mean, you know, he's coming off of back to
- 26:46Speaker 4: back one hundred plus points seasons in the Western Hockey League.
- 26:50Speaker 5: Definitely the most dynamic, skilled prospect the Cracking have had.
- 26:56Speaker 5: And you're in that middle ground.
- 26:58Speaker 4: You're in that no man's lands. Nineteen years old.
- 27:01Speaker 5: You can't send him to the American Hockey League, So
- 27:04Speaker 5: you know, you may have to treat these first handful
- 27:07Speaker 5: of games for him as kind of an extended spring
- 27:10Speaker 5: training extended training camp, if you will, Because is he
- 27:14Speaker 5: going to get better by going back to the WHL
- 27:17Speaker 5: continuing to dominate. You're not going up against better competition
- 27:22Speaker 5: or you have them here in Seattle. In the NHL,
- 27:24Speaker 5: you're practicing against NHL players, you're playing against NHL players,
- 27:29Speaker 5: You're on an NHL diet and weight plan and all
- 27:31Speaker 5: of that. So you know, there are a lot of
- 27:34Speaker 5: different items to weigh. When it came to does Berkeley
- 27:39Speaker 5: katt and make this team? Does he not make this team.
- 27:41Speaker 5: I think he showed enough in preseason to be given
- 27:45Speaker 5: that extra look. But like I said, just because you're
- 27:49Speaker 5: nineteen years old and a rookie in the league, it's
- 27:51Speaker 5: not going to be easy. We've seen that with Matty Veneers,
- 27:54Speaker 5: We've seen that with Shane Wright. It's going to be work,
- 27:56Speaker 5: and I think he's up for the challenge and he's
- 27:58Speaker 5: ready to work.
- 28:00Speaker 2: All right, Well, we will honor and respect your hometown,
- 28:04Speaker 2: but we are so glad you are one of us
- 28:07Speaker 2: now in Seattle. So what do you guys got planned
- 28:10Speaker 2: for Thursday night that we need to know about anything special?
- 28:15Speaker 5: Well, we got the Blue Carpet, which I'm hosting. The
- 28:18Speaker 5: blue Carpet side player arrivals start at three o'clock, so
- 28:23Speaker 5: I'll be there and announcing the guys as they head.
- 28:26Speaker 4: Up to the rink.
- 28:26Speaker 5: We're gonna be giving away three Amazon blankets giveaway that
- 28:30Speaker 5: night to everyone who comes down to the games. And listen,
- 28:33Speaker 5: you got two chances to see this team before they

- 28:39Speaker 5: You've got Saturday against Vegas, and then this team's on

- 31:39Speaker 3: We've been doing a lot of really hardcore trash talk
- 31:41Speaker 3: towards Detroit today.
- 31:42Speaker 2: I mean probably have hit to the core of some
- 31:46Speaker 2: Michiganders out there.
- 31:47Speaker 1: We do have casinos they hail in comparison to the
- 31:50Speaker 1: snow Quomia.
- 31:51Speaker 2: Yeah, well yeah, you're gonna have to eat that one.

- 32:03Speaker 2: if it's Riley Green. I don't know if it's Jack
- 32:06Speaker 2: Flaherty or Will Vest coming out of the bullpen. The
- 32:10Speaker 2: one thing that I know Ashley and I kind of
- 32:13Speaker 2: fear with this baseball team is whenever they get out
- 32:16Speaker 2: of their routine, rain is a possibility, not just today,
- 32:22Speaker 2: but during the course of the game tonight. Now, maybe
- 32:25Speaker 2: the forecast has changed, but I looked it up at
- 32:27Speaker 2: six o'clock this morning. It's kind of muggy right now
- 32:31Speaker 2: here in Detroit. It was up there like ninety degrees yesterday,
- 32:35Speaker 2: and so they got that cold front moving in and
- 32:37Speaker 2: so it's colliding with the warm weather from yesterday, and
- 32:41Speaker 2: it's supposed to create some thunderstorms around noon and they're
- 32:44Speaker 2: supposed to last a couple of hours.
- 32:46Speaker 3: No problem.
- 32:47Speaker 2: I mean, Baseball's process for keeping water off the field
- 32:50Speaker 2: is unbelievable. And their teams are unbelievable at getting the
- 32:55Speaker 2: field ready, so that's not a problem. It's supposed to
- 32:59Speaker 2: clear out at two and then by game time you
- 33:02Speaker 2: still are gonna have a chance of rain, Bucky, but
- 33:04Speaker 2: the thunderstorm should be in the rear view mirror about
- 33:07Speaker 2: a forty percent chance of rain at game time, and
- 33:10Speaker 2: then there's gonna be about a fifty percent chance.
- 33:12Speaker 3: Of rain throughout the game.
- 33:14Speaker 2: So, I mean, I believe it. I think we have
- 33:18Speaker 2: to have a discussion about the weather report because I've
- 33:20Speaker 2: watched this team get out of its routine and go
- 33:24Speaker 2: into a major slump. Not just for the day, they
- 33:28Speaker 2: had a rain out and didn't win a game for
- 33:30Speaker 2: two weeks. So I don't know if they handle this
- 33:34Speaker 2: stuff all that well. It could be the biggest enemy tonight.
- 33:38Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, it could be that there's something to it,
- 33:41Speaker 1: or it could just be coincidence that it just so
- 33:43Speaker 1: happens that they played kind of some of their worst
- 33:46Speaker 1: baseball on the heels of getting their routines messed up.
- 33:49Speaker 3: I would hope that it doesn't affect it.
- 33:51Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, I'm gonna say that it won't.
- 33:54Speaker 1: I think I don't I don't want. I don't think
- 33:56Speaker 1: we're gonna have to have any delay. It's just based
- 33:58Speaker 1: on what I'm looking at the map, the radar, we're
- 34:01Speaker 1: gonna have some stuff here coming up in the next
- 34:03Speaker 1: couple hours. Some rain come through, but that's fine. These
- 34:06Speaker 1: new fields drain. Well, it's that you can't be playing
- 34:09Speaker 1: in the torrential downpour. You can handle some rain beforehand,
- 34:12Speaker 1: and then it starts dropping off fairly, fairly heavily. The
- 34:16Speaker 1: thunderstorms part of it, which is what would delay it,
- 34:19Speaker 1: or heavy rain that drops off. You still have a
- 34:21Speaker 1: forty to fifty percent chance that there's some rain, but
- 34:23Speaker 1: I think it'll just be a little bit that you
- 34:24Speaker 1: can play through, and so we won't have.
- 34:26Speaker 3: To worry about whether or not.
- 34:28Speaker 1: We're talking tomorrow about how they just didn't look like
- 34:30Speaker 1: themselves because they were sitting in the clubhouse playing cards
- 34:33Speaker 1: for a couple hours waiting to get back on the field.
- 34:35Speaker 2: Well, I think the worries me just from a baseball perspective,
- 34:38Speaker 2: is Logan pitches two in the third innings, there's a
- 34:41Speaker 2: hour rain delay, and then does he come back the
- 34:44Speaker 2: same guy as he was before the rain delay? This
- 34:48Speaker 2: sort of stuff, I mean I don't think we're I
- 34:52Speaker 2: think we're right to be a little worried about this
- 34:54Speaker 2: because we've watched this. They play with a roof over
- 34:56Speaker 2: their heads. They never have to worry about it at home,
- 34:58Speaker 2: and it seems like every time they go on the
- 35:00Speaker 2: road and they're delayed at all by weather, they just
- 35:03Speaker 2: don't play well. And so maybe it is coincidence, but
- 35:06Speaker 2: I'm a little concerned about it, and I'm really concerned
- 35:09Speaker 2: if there's a lengthy what rain delay, and Dan and
- 35:12Speaker 2: the team decide that Logan doesn't go back out and
- 35:15Speaker 2: only get we only get two and a third innings.
- 35:17Speaker 3: Out of him tonight. Yeah, well, that's that would be
- 35:20Speaker 3: the worst part.
- 35:20Speaker 1: Start the game, get him out there, get him loose,
- 35:23Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden there's a delay to
- 35:24Speaker 1: the point where you don't bring him back out.
- 35:27Speaker 3: That would suck.
- 35:27Speaker 1: I mean, it's kind of a wasted appearance, so to speak,
- 35:30Speaker 1: a wasted start. And yet it just doesn't seem like
- 35:33Speaker 1: that's what's gonna happen. I mean, looking out there, I've
- 35:35Speaker 1: went out multiple times. It's not raining right now, But
- 35:38Speaker 1: right now is when it's supposed to be rolling in
- 35:40Speaker 1: the radar showing it rolling in right now, and we
- 35:42Speaker 1: still have what time is it almost noon? We still
- 35:45Speaker 1: got four hours until game time, So go ahead, you
- 35:48Speaker 1: can rain a little bit right now. I just think
- 35:49Speaker 1: it's going to be there's gonna be some rain during
- 35:52Speaker 1: the game. I'd be willing to bet, but I don't
- 35:54Speaker 1: think it's gonna be enough that they're gonna pause the game,
- 35:57Speaker 1: have to cancel, you know, have to go into any
- 35:59Speaker 1: sort of big lone Raindewy.
- 36:00Speaker 3: That's my hope as well.
- 36:01Speaker 2: Old Judge Coming your Way at nine thirty. It will
- 36:03Speaker 2: be a Detroit edition of the Old Judge Coming your Way.
- 36:06Speaker 2: Coming up next, though, we feel like we have to
- 36:09Speaker 2: talk to Rick Neuheisel after this last week of college football,
- 36:12Speaker 2: so he'll join us for his normal Tuesday segment on
