  Speaker 1: hug and a handshake. And what did you when did
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: you think of the derby? First off, the new format
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: and how everything played out for Jordan Walker to have
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: his moment.
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: I thought it worked out great.
• 0:28
  Speaker 4: And a lot of people had some skepticism about the
• 0:32
  Speaker 4: new format, and understandably so anything different is growing to
• 0:35
  Speaker 4: raise some questions. But it was great. The fan involvement,
• 0:40
  Speaker 4: it's Philly, man, it was amazing. And to see Jordan
• 0:44
  Speaker 4: Walker do.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: What he did, knowing where he was a year ago.
• 0:47
  Speaker 4: With that guy is accomplished. It's just one of the
• 0:50
  Speaker 4: reasons we love the game so much.
• 0:52
  Speaker 5: Worked it worked, I mean, I said, the only thing
• 0:53
  Speaker 5: that would have been better for Phillies of Schwarber would
• 0:55
  Speaker 5: have stood, But other than that, it was perfect. The
• 0:58
  Speaker 5: way the guys handled the booing from the Philly fans,
• 1:02
  Speaker 5: it was great.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: Wilson Contreras, Jarby, Walker and Junior cram and Arro was
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: just here.
• 1:06
  Speaker 6: It was great.
• 1:07
  Speaker 4: No, I love him and I went to school here,
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: I worked outside Philly a little bit, so I know
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: the whole deal and it's just part of it here.
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: And to see Wilson Contreras in particular kind of play
• 1:17
  Speaker 4: into it, that was great.
• 1:19
  Speaker 5: That was perfect from his first half though right it's
• 1:22
  Speaker 5: it's I mean, I don't know that it's him all
• 1:24
  Speaker 5: the time. But what we talked about the last month
• 1:27
  Speaker 5: on the show about Wilston Contreras, it was like, I
• 1:29
  Speaker 5: don't know, I Philly fans really want to nerd this
• 1:31
  Speaker 5: guy because I felt like he was kind of like
• 1:34
  Speaker 5: gaining momentum with the Yes, he is.
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: A passionate player and it plays with a ton of fire.
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: It's a little carried away at times.
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: We all know that he knows that, but I like personality,
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: got a big personality.
• 1:49
  Speaker 6: When the thrower almost hit him, was there any chance
• 1:52
  Speaker 6: to anyone?
• 1:52
  Speaker 5: I was like, charge him mount because it was like
• 1:55
  Speaker 5: his last swing and the guy almost drilled him.
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's his hand picked choicey, I know, but
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: think he's gonna charge them that.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: I think he would have considered it if it wasn't
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: what like the pressure that situation. He really needed the
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: one more home whatever it was. So that's a little tough.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: It's like random time period. You do get the stoppage
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: because there's no clock here, right, Yeah.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: Which actually worked out.
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: Okay, I know there were fewer home runs hit, but
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: it couldn't follow it before it was going.
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: So this was.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I was worried in the beginning. Actually with the
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: Contreras set bat, I think it was his last swing
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: and he took like five pitches. They start booing, and
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: I was I texted these guys. I was like, is
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: this going to be the thing where that everybody's taking three,
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: four or five pitches, especially towards the end.
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: But they didn't really do that.
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: The sounds of Billy right now for anybody wondering, right,
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: it didn't really.
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: Happen that way, My goodness.
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: It's batting practice pitches guys that again are hand selected.
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: They should be able to get the ball over the
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: plate within a span of five So.
• 2:55
  Speaker 5: Did you nobody hit the whole the moneyball until I
• 2:59
  Speaker 5: think Jordan so short. No one hit a home run
• 3:02
  Speaker 5: on the money ball to the was that just guys
• 3:04
  Speaker 5: trying to are saying like oh, I have to hit
• 3:06
  Speaker 5: a home because you guys.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: I think it was a little probbably because it was
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: a build up too. But I think it was build
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: up too because.
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: They're like, oh, now we have a magenta ball. Oh
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: and three, I think Hunter Pence was staying on the
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: air last night when he said, oh, it's plus, it
• 3:21
  Speaker 5: looks different.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: Yes, you're used to the white and then well pink
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: part of it, right question.
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: So it was interesting, though I don't think they're sending
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: magenta balls to guys to practice with. I heard that
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: the last two guys took those magenta balls into the
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: cage to practice with.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: Smart Smart.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: That's cool.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: It wasn't from Jordan Walker or Kyle Schwarberg.
• 3:42
  Speaker 7: But yeah, I will say this, when you see, oh wow,
• 3:45
  Speaker 7: four hundred and ninety feet four hundred and seventy feet,
• 3:49
  Speaker 7: well they had a super Bowl like quality the balls did.
• 3:52
  Speaker 6: So no, you never do.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: That, No, they would never.
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: There was the balls that they used with zero drag
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: June No, no, no, that was because of oil.
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: Coloring, the great this coloring of twenty twenty six.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: But you're right, it's like you look at the career
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: eye distance and then you look and You're like, wait,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: so he can hit forty one?
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: No, no, I like it.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: You have to.
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: You have to a knowledge that it's just yes.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: It is like, there's no secret. They're not denying that
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: part of it. It's fun. So okay, now tell us
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: about All Star Game. What are you most excited? Abu
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: obviously will be on the fields, a lot of storylines.
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: Actually, I'm most excited about being in Philly with their
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: all Stars. They're gonna play big roles, obviously, shorter start
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: in the game, Christopher Sanchez start the game, and just
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: for the country to see what this place is like.
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: Now the average fan probably knows, but it will be
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: more electric than.
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: The usual All Star game. I'll say that.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: Because it's here.
• 4:54
  Speaker 5: Do you do you think the average fan outside of
• 4:56
  Speaker 5: Philly actually knows what Philly fans or do you think
• 4:58
  Speaker 5: they just know the Oh they're brutal, They've boost Sanna
• 5:02
  Speaker 5: all that.
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: They know that that that you're right, Eric, that's what
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: they know. But the other side of that is this
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: amazing energy in that ballpark. And there are some of
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: the ballparks like that. Peco in San Diego has become
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: like that. So I'm not saying this is the only place,
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: but it is unique in.
• 5:20
  Speaker 6: Its way extures Wrigley, so that could be and.
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: Really, yeah, that's a fun place too, different kind of inviting.
• 5:27
  Speaker 6: Different fun. Yeah, different energy. That's more of a yes,
• 5:32
  Speaker 6: a little bit.
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: More more about thirty thousand people at a bar.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: And lovable as they used to be called lovable losers,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: but they've won sence for Philly. I am most excited
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: to see the ovation for Mike Trout because I think
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: that the Philly crowd has this energy that can almost
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: make you emotional. And he's been dealing with those questions
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: for years now, and I know he shoot him away
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: again basically saying he's not going anywhere. But how do
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: you think that moment will be when, hey, remember when
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: Philly got Trey Turner going last year or the year before,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: kind of got him out of a slum.
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: God.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: Actually, it's an interesting question.
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: I don't know that it will be as electric as
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: it will be for the Phillies players.
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: But he is a hometown kid.
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: Essentially, he grew up right over the bridge, not right over,
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: but in that part of New Jersey, and we all
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: know he's a huge Eagles fans. Most Phillies fans. I
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: am quite sure aware of that, So yeah, that could
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: be an emotional moment.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: He's never been cheered here, so that's to me, what
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: would stand out. You're in now a city that you love,
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: and you haven't you know, you've been asked about that
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: spot for years, and I think Philly fans are smart
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: enough to know, hey, let's make him feel it a
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: little bit. And this might not be the best example,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: but I remember when Schooble went to WBC then he's like, wait,
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: this is epic.
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: I want to say you can change someone's emotions. Well,
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: I'm sure if it's as good as you think, it's
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: gonna be Scott, he'll be asked after the game.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: Okay, Mike, what about Philly?
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: Now, he's been asked out a lot over the years,
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: and he's been out of it.
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: He's been pretty not pretty consistent, extremely consistent.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: In his Buckston too. They asked yesterday, And I mean,
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: those guys have no trade clauses. So when they're saying that,
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: do you feel like they're just putting it out that
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: I would deny this or my team would.
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: It's not leverage in those particular cases.
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: It's not I have a no trade clause, and I
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: want to use it to get something into trade.
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: Those guys actually want to stay where they are.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, so you what if the Philly fans Cheerbucks
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: he think about it, I will know.
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: I think Ronin Buxton has been very vocal and adamant
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: about wanting to do this in Minnesota in the same
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: way that Trout has been that way with the Angels.
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: Trout's position has been I want to win here. Now
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: we all know under this owner it might be all
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: but impossible to win there. But that is his loyalty
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: and in his defense, and I know people don't necessarily
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: buy this, but they paid him a lot of money.
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: He feels an obligation. Actually, that's kind of what you
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: want out of your star player. And I know there's
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: always the question, well, there's really.
• 8:00
  Speaker 6: Want to win.
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: He wants to win, but he wants to win in
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: that place where he got the money.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: Many people have this problem. I want to eat healthy.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: I have the willpower, I don't have the time and
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: the organization. I need help. What do you do?
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: I mean, you go to factor. I got two boys
• 8:15
  Speaker 5: that are looking for the gains and they always come
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: in the house, which is I'm looking for food.
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: Now.

• 8:25

• 8:27
  Speaker 5: them to pop in and make it right away.

• 8:32

• 9:07
  Speaker 2: Loyalties Yeah, I get it.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: Hey, also today you have I mean, we'll spend a
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: few minutes on this. On the finish line, the labor
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: battle takes center stage.
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: Oh go ahead, Joe trade.
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah, has a Tiger's gotten themselves back in and enough
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: where scooball might be off the table.
• 9:22
  Speaker 4: Now we need to see what happens in the next
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: two and a half weeks, So I don't don't. Here's
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: the thing, AJ. Let's say your premise is right that
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: he's off the table. Now, well, what if they tank
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: in the next couple of weeks and they're out of
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: it again?
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: And even now they're.
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: Eight under Granted they're close in the wildcard race and
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: not that far away in the division race, but if
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: they go south again, it becomes a much easier question
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: to me. If they're competing, it's going to be really divisibult.
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: It's you're trading him back to back style, young Werner.
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: You've got a chance to do some things in a
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: league that is down. And hey, even the Judge news
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: could affect this. Let's say Aaron Judges out for the
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: year or even out until September, and we don't know
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: what exactly is going to be. Why wouldn't the Tigers,
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: if they stay hot, think of themselves as a legitimate
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: contender for the American League title.
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: There's no reason they shouldn't.
• 10:15
  Speaker 6: Do we have a judge update, we don't.
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: We're waiting for his imaging to take place in the
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: next couple of days, and anybody else that.
• 10:23
  Speaker 6: The Yankees can't get it.
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: They can't get an MRI they can't call him.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: Well, no, they can.
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: They're doing it now.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and they're not.
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: In a range shown already and they haven't announced it.
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and if there was bad news, you think they
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: want to share it on all started.
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: I would hope. Now there's kind of a blackout on
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: news today.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: That's fair. Any other teams in the last few days
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: that you think are weak that changed their complexion, I
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: know one that you might see they're in the same position,
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: they fall back again, then things might change.
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: It's not decided by any stretch.
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: And the Red Sox keep in mind, I wrote this
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: it was about to two and a half weeks ago.
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: Their schedule was getting easier. This road trip.
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they won nine straight. They did it against the Angels,
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: White Sox who were not playing as well, and the
• 11:09
  Speaker 4: Mets so okay, But now you've got Tampa Bay coming
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: right out of the break again. It's kind of the situation, guys,
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: where the next couple of weeks will be almost like
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: a Pennant race, because these teams are racing to see
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: just who they are.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: A's and Reds I think could be sellers. We're trying
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: to I'm trying to rack up the sellers. It's not
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: that I want teams.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: Looking that way.
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: Reds are looking that way for sure.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: The Orioles are an interesting team because they two games
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: out on the lock art. They have their first four
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: game winning speak of the season. Did it against the Royals.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: So we convinced.
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: No, we're not convinced. Should they be convinced. No, but
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: we'll see over the next couple of weeks. Again, how
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: it's all transfer.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: Those teams have pieces that people want, or just have
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: the right hand of bats right, yep, yep, Orioles, Reds
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: have some pitching.
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: And bullpen Spencer Steers steers the guys.
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: Sure, Taylor Ward's I mean, if you want to do something.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and there's it's hard to find right handed power,
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: so extremely just named some names there that that could fit. Okay,
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: last two minutes we were at man for an and
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: first Meyer or Yeah.
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: They both spoke to the Baseball Writers today.
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: It's annuals thing where the Baseball Writers meet at the
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: All Star Game and each representative from the league in
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: the Union, the tough guys speak to us. Now when
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: it's a non bargaining year, the questions are much different
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: than they were today, and I wouldn't say anything earth
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: chattering came out of it. The owners aren't coming off
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: a salary cap. The union's not coming off its opposition
• 12:35
  Speaker 4: to a salary cap. But they remain both sides quite
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: firm in their conditions.
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: Okay, so nothing crazy. They're they're not. You'll see some
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: news come out of it.
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: There's some interesting comments, for sure, but it's not like
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: anything changed.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: In that way, right It's going to be a long time.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: The Philly fans didn't change Rob Manfick's mind on the
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: salary cap.
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: No. One of the highlights was Bruce Meyer saying that
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: it was perverse. That was the word he used, perverse
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: of MLB and the owners to suggest that the game
• 13:09
  Speaker 4: is not a great place right now, to say that
• 13:11
  Speaker 4: the game is suffering, it's broken.
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: I mean, those are not the exact words to use,
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: but perverse is the word he used.
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: And Manfred had his own points of view, and I
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: happened to disagree with many of them.
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: Some fans might agree. But again, there'll be some stories.
• 13:26
  Speaker 4: Coming out of it. I encourage people to read. Yes,
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: Evandrelic and Andy McCullough coming up.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: We're on it. In the Athletic Ken is on Fox.
• 13:33

• 13:36
  Speaker 1: their coverage. Ken, thank you, good to see us, see
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: you guys. Yeah, let's charge, let's talk All Star What
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: are you guys most excited for?
• 13:49
  Speaker 8: Uh?
• 13:50
  Speaker 6: I kind of thing where Ken said?
• 13:51
  Speaker 5: Jonathan Sanchez taking the field on the top of Chrisser
• 13:54
  Speaker 5: Jesus Jonathan Johnathan the old lefty for the Giants.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: Take a bunch tickets.
• 13:58
  Speaker 6: He did, he was nasty.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: Sorry.
• 14:00
  Speaker 5: Christopher Sanchez, who I picked to win the Cy young,
• 14:03
  Speaker 5: I think I would know his name.
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: Taking the fields four vers first and bat.
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: I want to see the reaction trout kids, and I
• 14:11
  Speaker 5: just like seeing the guys here, especially for the first time.
• 14:14
  Speaker 5: You get to take the field and get out there smile.
• 14:17
  Speaker 5: Everyone's smiling, everyone's happy. It's it's like the purest form
• 14:22
  Speaker 5: of baseball because everyone's happy. Numbers don't matter. Guys give
• 14:27
  Speaker 5: up hits, they laugh about it. Guys do something cool
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: they laugh about it's not it's not as pressure packed
• 14:33
  Speaker 5: as its normal games.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: A celebration, yes, yeah, I have to.
• 14:38
  Speaker 5: Players feel honored to be there, and like the guys
• 14:41
  Speaker 5: that play, I think they enjoy it. I think being
• 14:45
  Speaker 5: because I'm going to the game, I think it's something
• 14:47
  Speaker 5: that I'll miss. Is I love the micd up. I
• 14:50
  Speaker 5: think they add more and more miked up players for
• 14:52
  Speaker 5: the All Star Game. But being there, I love feeling
• 14:57
  Speaker 5: the energy in the park where it's like there's not
• 15:00
  Speaker 5: a lot of ebbs and flows. It just feels like
• 15:02
  Speaker 5: the same energy because you want to see something cool
• 15:06
  Speaker 5: and on every play you don't have really a rooting interest.
• 15:10
  Speaker 5: You just want to see something cool, like throw this
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: ball as hard as you can, hit this ball as
• 15:14
  Speaker 5: far as you can, Stuartstop. I remember Bobby whitten Mae
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: to play the other year where we went in the
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: hole and he just gotted it across the infield. Like
• 15:20
  Speaker 5: That's the kind of stuff that I love about All
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: Star Games. You don't have that disappointment excitement as much.
• 15:26
  Speaker 5: I guess we will with Philly fans.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: All right, this is it last couple of minutes here
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: of FT. We are going to look at yesterday's locks.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: Oh oh, somebody decided not to go with a winner
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: and choose a matchup Bryce Harper to beat Ben Rice
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: in a head to head minus one ten check.
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: But I'm glad I didn't go with Wilson Contro or
• 15:56
  Speaker 5: Jordan Walker, two guys that I thought are good hitters,
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: but maybe.
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: Not quite the extension. Well, Ben Rice.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: Not a lot of people at Jordan Walker winning the Derby,
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: and it has nothing to do with anything but other
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: big star power that you get attracted to, and that's
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: what happens. Money Bags is looking good so far this year.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: Aj what is going down this evening at the All
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: Star Game? If you had to predict and you're putting.
• 16:19
  Speaker 5: A lockdown, Listen, I'm an American League guy. I played
• 16:22
  Speaker 5: most of liken the American League. I'm taking the National
• 16:24
  Speaker 5: League run line. But it's now the National League should
• 16:29
  Speaker 5: be a better team and they should win this game.
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: So I'm taking the National League run line.
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: Well that's easy for me.
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: I'm taking the National League run line as well. I
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: think the NALL is going to win.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: It's at minus one thirty with the money line the
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: run lines plus one fifty.
• 16:42
  Speaker 6: I mean, so you go from just winning to have
• 16:44
  Speaker 6: me win by two. Yeah, I think is a much
• 16:48
  Speaker 6: better team.
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: I agree where you could see uh, you know, seven
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: to kind of situation. This is one of the most
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: lopsided years ever. National League Versale.
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: Often the Ale had the edge.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: I'm not just talking about at the All Star again,
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: I'm just talking about life. And I do think part
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: of it was a d H factor in there. It
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: does help me build your roster a little bit differently.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: That's not a thing anymore. For years. We're going with
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: the run line for the National League. I'm sure you're
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: gonna do something else I have I'm.
• 17:14
  Speaker 5: Going to do and cease two strikeouts in the first vining. Oh,
• 17:20
  Speaker 5: what's pay plus one ten? Okay, he's gonna face I'm
• 17:24
  Speaker 5: not saying he might want a guy. He might give
• 17:26
  Speaker 5: up a hit first, somebody might catch a catch a heater.
• 17:31
  Speaker 5: But he's going for the punchies. And so Schwarber, Soto, c. J.
• 17:38
  Speaker 5: Abrams is in there. Fred and if Freddy was like,
• 17:41
  Speaker 5: he's not a big strikeout guy. But it's and it's
• 17:45
  Speaker 5: all it's all lefties for the right. For the National League,
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: it's all lefties. And then the American League is a
• 17:52
  Speaker 5: lot of Righty's.
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: Right, but seize his face and lefties at the top.
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: Right, That's what I'm saying. Yeah, it's fine threating out
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: the world.
• 18:00
  Speaker 5: Okay, I want to, and then I don't have to
• 18:03
  Speaker 5: worry about my bed after the first inning, and I
• 18:05
  Speaker 5: can just enjoy the game. I'll be there in person.
• 18:07
  Speaker 5: So if you hear somebody yell from the crowd when c. J.
• 18:11
  Speaker 5: Abrams punches out, he's a second strikeout.
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: Let's go.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: Down on crats for something unique, but something to root for.
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: Right in the first inning, Pap sent in a pick two,
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: but just on the screen for us. We'll get packed
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: back on video next week. I think Pop's enjoying his
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: All Star break.
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: Probably his WiFi is down? Is that what you're saying?
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: Could he have come here? Like?
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: What would the receptions? So why wouldn't see all the time?
• 18:36
  Speaker 5: I mean I think maybe the Phillies have to invite him. Okay,
• 18:39
  Speaker 5: all time saves leader. Here is such a vibe. It
• 18:41
  Speaker 5: would have been so fun. A J and I would
• 18:43
  Speaker 5: have had a great time with him at the I
• 18:46
  Speaker 5: am not oh yeah, I am not taking the American
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: League money line, but I love that Pap is taking
• 18:50
  Speaker 5: the American League money line. That graphic is right for Pap,
• 18:54
  Speaker 5: wrong for me, but I will definitely say Pap here.
• 18:57
  Speaker 5: It would either be loved or hate it, and I
• 19:02
  Speaker 5: think majority would be loved.
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: Yep. That's cool.
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: I mean Philly fans should like just perhaps five is fun.
• 19:09

• 20:42
  Speaker 6: That's what he said.
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: That's what he said. We've had reporters on the scene
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: for media Day and that includes a conversation with Mike
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: draptris Or Whitaker and Alana Rizzo. I have been all
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: around Philadelphia talking to the players, start with Mike Trout,
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: who was asked about it's like, how could a fan
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: take down Jacob Mizrawski and Mike Trout had an idea.
• 21:08
  Speaker 6: Make contact fatball. I don't know.
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: I mean you would have to think they would get lucky.
• 21:13
  Speaker 6: I'm saying minimum one hundred.
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: Brandon marshat one thousand, and you think that's the next
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: thing that all Star games should do, just to make
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: look what you guys do even more than impressive.
• 21:21
  Speaker 6: Just pull some random fan out of the sand. I
• 21:23
  Speaker 6: mean it'd be it'd be interesting.
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: It's a great idea.
• 21:26
  Speaker 6: It'd be great.
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it'd be interested for sure.
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: To just make contact.
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: It was just make contact, not gonna hit, so it.
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: Could go foul. Like you was saying, okay, I think.
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: People could do that.
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: You get a random panic and run into one just
• 21:44
  Speaker 5: foul at all, getting a hit, actually putting them all
• 21:47
  Speaker 5: in play.
• 21:47
  Speaker 6: That the ability to get a hit would be almost impossible.
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: It has to be a two way street.
• 21:53
  Speaker 5: If like this is just out there just throwing like
• 21:55
  Speaker 5: ninety two ninety three baseballs by people, somebody would get it.
• 22:00
  Speaker 5: If it's like if you give up any kind of contact,
• 22:04
  Speaker 5: you you know, he loses something and the fan gains something.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: Zero two way share. I thought you were like, oh, well,
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: if the fans an accountant, then he has to do
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: tax returns.
• 22:15
  Speaker 5: No, no, no, these are the best in the world,
• 22:20
  Speaker 5: and the miss is one of the best of the
• 22:22
  Speaker 5: best in the world.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: But it always creates that debate where you know, it's
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: the hardest thing to do.
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: Is is it a big lead pitch?
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: Anyone can make a basket at some point, although if
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: you're being guarded by the best defender in basketball, can
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: you get a point off him? Probably not, honestly.
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: No.
• 22:40
  Speaker 6: I remember the old MJ stories were MJ.
• 22:43
  Speaker 5: I think it was the MJ played Ozzie g And and
• 22:45
  Speaker 5: Joey kra the same time and they scored a couple
• 22:48
  Speaker 5: of baskets.
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: They did score on two on one, I know, but still.
• 22:52
  Speaker 5: And then they talked to him. Imagine Ozzie talking a
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: little trash and then he's like, okay, And then I
• 22:57
  Speaker 5: was like, scored like fifteen rantoff they didn't. He's like,
• 23:00
  Speaker 5: mading you a shot. All yep, it's a great It
• 23:03
  Speaker 5: was in spring training when he was at the White Sox.
• 23:05
  Speaker 6: They were talking.
• 23:06
  Speaker 5: He's like, all, let's go play whop. So there's a
• 23:08
  Speaker 5: court right there, and they did it and it was
• 23:10
  Speaker 5: two on one and they got smashed.
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: Of course, I would imagine.
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: I think there's I think there's a lot of things
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: in sports like.
• 23:16
  Speaker 5: That that I love that that was asked to try out,
• 23:19
  Speaker 5: because there's a lot of things. I think people get
• 23:21
  Speaker 5: a false sense like Federer. People are like, I.
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: Could return when a Federer serves no, no, you can't.
• 23:31
  Speaker 5: Like I think we especially in a social media age,
• 23:35
  Speaker 5: because you have contact, you have ways of like connecting
• 23:37
  Speaker 5: with players, connecting with players that they think, oh, well,
• 23:42
  Speaker 5: he just like me, Like you're not getting to hit
• 23:45
  Speaker 5: all schemes. You're not You're not touching the miss's best fit.
• 23:49
  Speaker 5: It's too fast forward.
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: And you teat up. Our next little clip from media
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: day that went viral that wasn't really our.
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: Sound.
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: When super Viral Paul Skins was about to get a
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: question from Alana Rizzo, she was rudely interrupted by some
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: random person that should not be at media debt. Here's
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: what it sounded like.
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: Sorry, just got the best interview at the whole time.
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: Out sup and brown future Yankee. I don't know, so
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: I didn't get the full lowdown. And I'll talk to
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: Alana or someone from our team behind the scenes there
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: because we posted the clip. And then some people are
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: like Oh why is falter? I'm like, that wasn't ful territory.
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: We posted the clip, we put reporter in the caption
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: who had said, like, you.
• 24:37
  Speaker 5: Can tell you where they're from, but I probably shouldn't
• 24:40
  Speaker 5: until you guys verify where they're.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: Okay, that's fair, But either way, it sounded like they
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: were doing one of those Hey guys, I'm live and
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: I got to ask a question of Paul Skiings future Yankee,
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: and it's just like, we got to clean that up.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: That's too much because then players aren't going to want
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: to do it correct.
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: That's too much putting them on offers. That's weird.
• 25:00
  Speaker 5: It's it doesn't. It doesn't give the It doesn't give
• 25:05
  Speaker 5: players like man I really had a great time with that.
• 25:09
  Speaker 5: It's already another thing on the schedule along with what
• 25:11
  Speaker 5: we talked about with Max, Like you're signing a thousand autographs,
• 25:15
  Speaker 5: you're doing all this and that, like now you're gonna
• 25:18
  Speaker 5: be asked questions that make you look like you can't
• 25:21
  Speaker 5: wait to get out of Pittsburgh.
• 25:22
  Speaker 6: It doesn't.
• 25:23
  Speaker 5: It doesn't give us. It doesn't give players the like
• 25:27
  Speaker 5: real touchy feely feel.
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: Would you be bothered if you were schemes on the
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: pirates and there's some you know, TikToker going I just
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: got to ask reactate.
• 25:38
  Speaker 5: I'd probably say some smart ass on that backed up. Honestly,
• 25:43
  Speaker 5: I don't know would I be bothered by it. I
• 25:45
  Speaker 5: mean I would just said, hey, I'm a piriate right
• 25:49
  Speaker 5: now and I'll see what happens down the road.
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: I don't think I would have been bothered by it. Afterwards.
• 25:54
  Speaker 6: I would just been like, how about this jackass?
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: Than anything?
• 25:57
  Speaker 9: Uh?
• 25:58
  Speaker 6: Or maybe I would have set it right into space.
• 25:59
  Speaker 6: I don't know, but it would. It was just a
• 26:01
  Speaker 6: stupid It's the.
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: Same as Bryce Starverer say, clown crush.
• 26:04
  Speaker 6: It's basically this guy was just looking for Alick.
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: I know what you would have said. I guess they
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: give anyone to credential these days. I feel like that
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: would have been such an AJ line.
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: True. True, how did you get your credential? Where are
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: you from?
• 26:16
  Speaker 6: Yes?

  Speaker 8: I think I just love everything about it. And uh,
• 26:42
  Speaker 8: you know, Dad played and he's got a few rings
• 26:45
  Speaker 8: with them, and that that's the end goal for me.
• 26:46
  Speaker 6: So I really love it.
• 26:48
  Speaker 8: And the locker room and the clubhouse culture is great.
• 26:52
  Speaker 10: This is a team obviously that certainly for obvious reasons,
• 26:55
  Speaker 10: missus judge in that lineup, how do you maintain the
• 26:58
  Speaker 10: position in continuing to push to get into that postseason
• 27:01
  Speaker 10: without him?
• 27:01
  Speaker 8: It's been hard, I think, you know, I think all
• 27:04
  Speaker 8: of us understand, like you can't just put it all
• 27:06
  Speaker 8: on one player, like he's probably he is the best
• 27:08
  Speaker 8: player in the game, like hitter, you know, so losing
• 27:12
  Speaker 8: that bat definitely hurts, and losing his presence in the
• 27:14
  Speaker 8: locker room, his president's in the lineup, I mean, he's
• 27:17
  Speaker 8: in the locker room, but losing his presence in the
• 27:19
  Speaker 8: lineup and h it's it's up to us. We got
• 27:21
  Speaker 8: to play better. We got to step up to the
• 27:23
  Speaker 8: plate and understand that we got to pick it up.
• 27:26
  Speaker 10: Always gone Schlittler front runner for the ale Cy Young Award.
• 27:30
  Speaker 10: What has he done that's really impressed you.
• 27:33
  Speaker 6: I think for me the same thing as Ben.
• 27:35
  Speaker 8: I think these these these guys are so knowledgeable. Like
• 27:39
  Speaker 8: I remember coming up and I was like, you know,
• 27:41
  Speaker 8: just swinging, But these guys are smart.
• 27:44
  Speaker 6: They have a plan, they.
• 27:45
  Speaker 8: Know what they want to do, and uh that's and
• 27:49
  Speaker 8: obviously the stuff is electric, but the brains, they got
• 27:53
  Speaker 8: good brains.
• 27:54
  Speaker 10: Less for me, what's been the part of your game
• 27:57
  Speaker 10: that you're the most proud of since one glad did
• 28:00
  Speaker 10: your first MLV interview one hundred years ago to today
• 28:02
  Speaker 10: sitting here as an All Star again, what.
• 28:04
  Speaker 8: Am I most proud of of my game? I would say,
• 28:11
  Speaker 8: I would say the resilience. Oh, you know, got punched
• 28:15
  Speaker 8: in the face a little bit, but you know, you
• 28:18
  Speaker 8: just got to punch back, and that's what I did.
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: That was awesome a line, And first of all, I
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: didn't realize that, but of course should know. She was
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: the first person to interview him when he made the
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: big leaguess Cody Pollinger, he has gotten punched in the face.
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: AJ, he has a couple of times the shoulder.
• 28:33
  Speaker 6: Daughter's got riddo and they went to the clubs.
• 28:35
  Speaker 5: She were like, oh, he's done and then he goes
• 28:37
  Speaker 5: to the Yankees and has a great year, signed some
• 28:39
  Speaker 5: nice contract and was having another dude, great guy to
• 28:42
  Speaker 5: talk to you if you ever get the chance.
• 28:44
  Speaker 6: I got to talk to him yesterday in the locker.
• 28:46
  Speaker 6: His first second. He's just so, he's just a kid.
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: It's a happy guy.
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: He is.
• 28:50
  Speaker 6: He's very happy.
• 28:51
  Speaker 5: He's always complimentary. I literally ran into him for a second.
• 28:56
  Speaker 5: It's all kind of all the Yankees. I just happened
• 28:59
  Speaker 5: to walk in and just have sitting there and he
• 29:01
  Speaker 5: was he was great, and he was just really nice guy.
• 29:05
  Speaker 6: And Ben Rice was great too.
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: For the thirty second to get Oh, he's super nice. Yeah,
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: we've interviewed him a couple of times on this show.
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: Next up Dave Roberts, who is managing the National League
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: All Star team, and he spoke with Elona Rizzo about
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: Justin Robleski making that team and the changes that he
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: made to get to this status.
• 29:24
  Speaker 10: Justin Robleski. We were screaming off of the rooftops that
• 29:27
  Speaker 10: this man should be an All Star ten and two
• 29:30
  Speaker 10: sub era or sub three era. He gets in, needed
• 29:33
  Speaker 10: a couple of things to go his way, but he
• 29:34
  Speaker 10: got in. What's made him so special. I feel like
• 29:36
  Speaker 10: he's he's the un you know, the the unmentioned ace
• 29:39
  Speaker 10: of the staff.
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: Almost.
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: That's fair, that's fair.
• 29:42
  Speaker 9: And I think the thing is that I told the
• 29:43
  Speaker 9: guys once we announced that he was an All Star,
• 29:47
  Speaker 9: you know, last April eighth, he was in my office
• 29:50
  Speaker 9: pretty much in tears once we sent him out, and
• 29:53
  Speaker 9: he gave up eight to the Nationals that day, and
• 29:56
  Speaker 9: to his credit, he went back, looked in the mirror
• 29:58
  Speaker 9: and said, how do I get better? How do ID
• 30:00
  Speaker 9: become a major league pitcher? Cleaned up his closet, got better,
• 30:04
  Speaker 9: And I think for me, it's like he's felt the pain.
• 30:06
  Speaker 9: He's a tough kid. He goes after guys. He's learned
• 30:10
  Speaker 9: what you know, because I always tell the pictures the
• 30:12
  Speaker 9: hitters will tell you what you need to work on, right,
• 30:14
  Speaker 9: And he took that to heart. And now he's an
• 30:16
  Speaker 9: All Star, and like you said, he is an unherald today.
• 30:18
  Speaker 9: So we talk about snow Glass now Yamamoto. But I'll
• 30:23
  Speaker 9: tell you right now is we wouldn't be where we're
• 30:24
  Speaker 9: at without Jessin Robleski.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: It's a great call and it's well deserved. And he
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: didn't get in there initially. There were a lot of
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: good starters aja to choose from in the National League.
• 30:34
  Speaker 6: Actually, it's tough this year.
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: It's tough this year.
• 30:37
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it's but I'm glad. I'm happy for Robleski to
• 30:41
  Speaker 5: get in. People, especially the first.
• 30:44
  Speaker 6: All Star team spig right, uh.
• 30:50
  Speaker 5: Is the coolest one, I think for most people, unless
• 30:52
  Speaker 5: you're you know, you get to go to multiple like
• 30:54
  Speaker 5: Cole Hamils saying, then you get to play and do
• 30:55
  Speaker 5: it in front of your home team, which is very
• 30:59
  Speaker 5: even more special, but your first one is so awesome.
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: You know. I was most impressed about today. Ken Rosenthal
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: had a prompt appointment at one thirty and we promised
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: him one thirty and we delivered and it's not easy.
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: And then not easy, and then I saw him in
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: there schmoozing around, picking his lunch up all that stuff,
• 31:28
