Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Because they would be the second richest owners in baseball
- 0:04Speaker 1: behind Stevie Cohen. According to net Worth, I believe, so.
- 0:12Speaker 2: Let the ring training tour begin.
- 0:16Speaker 1: You stop spring training first day. Volume on one of
- 0:20Speaker 1: the computers. Mark has completely screwed us up, so we
- 0:22Speaker 1: got to wait a second here.
- 0:24Speaker 2: Oh no, okay, everyone, just wait. We're only on television.
- 0:28Speaker 2: You let me know stereo.
- 0:31Speaker 1: It's fine. It's in stereo, so I can hear myself
- 0:33Speaker 1: and krats.
- 0:34Speaker 3: I can hear you. You can hear me? Yes, can
- 0:37Speaker 3: you hear me?
- 0:39Speaker 1: It's this one Mark over here.
- 0:41Speaker 2: This is really fun. See, this is what we'll do
- 0:44Speaker 2: outside in Sarasota. By the way, I'm gonna talk to
- 0:46Speaker 2: everyone else. You guys, let me know when you want
- 0:48Speaker 2: to know.
- 0:48Speaker 3: We're good.
- 0:49Speaker 1: We can still hear you. Yeah, we can hear you.
- 0:51Speaker 1: It's just in stereo because the computer has all the
- 0:53Speaker 1: volume going. Oh wait, this is the exact same place
- 0:56Speaker 1: I sat last year, but now Mark decided to spend
- 0:58Speaker 1: twenty dollars on a tent so I don't get melanoma
- 1:01Speaker 1: from the sun even though it's not very sunny today.
- 1:04Speaker 2: Wow, wow, we're upgrading. See season three of Foul territory.
- 1:11Speaker 2: A couple things to point out before we start. Number one,
- 1:14Speaker 2: and most importantly, do you notice anything different right now?
- 1:18Speaker 2: Aj or Kratz? Do you notice anything differently in your life?
- 1:24Speaker 1: New graphics on the monitor.
- 1:26Speaker 2: Yes, a lot of new graphics. You got the smoke
- 1:29Speaker 2: behind you. You've got those outlined bars gone, a little
- 1:35Speaker 2: smooth picture right on the right and the left. Remember
- 1:39Speaker 2: we had a red outline on the box.
- 1:41Speaker 3: Not anymore.
- 1:41Speaker 1: You don't even.
- 1:42Speaker 2: Remember that, okay. And then the name plates. Did you
- 1:46Speaker 2: like the name plates? Okay? Big leagues okay. Tons and
- 1:51Speaker 2: tons of work behind the scenes being done to make
- 1:54Speaker 2: it happen, so I think it's fire. On the topic
- 1:58Speaker 2: of smoke, did Grayson Adrigez not want to handle the
- 2:02Speaker 2: aj Prizinski?
- 2:03Speaker 3: No?
- 2:04Speaker 1: You know what? No? So I text him. I text
- 2:06Speaker 1: him yesterday. I was just looking through this and I said,
- 2:08Speaker 1: are you pitching tomorrow? Meaning today? And he said, no,
- 2:11Speaker 1: I pitched yesterday, but I'll still be there to see you.
- 2:13Speaker 1: Don't worry. And I said, so you aren't going to
- 2:16Speaker 1: let me take you deep? And he said you couldn't
- 2:18Speaker 1: take me deep if I threw with my left arm.
- 2:20Speaker 1: And then I said, well, I ain't scared and then
- 2:22Speaker 1: I got an LMAO for all the people out there
- 2:25Speaker 1: that know what that means, and that's it. And then
- 2:27Speaker 1: he shut it down. But I was ready. I had.
- 2:30Speaker 1: The reason I asked him was, I was like, do
- 2:31Speaker 1: I need to bring a helmet? Do I need to
- 2:33Speaker 1: bring an elbow guard? Do I need to bring a bat?
- 2:35Speaker 1: Do I need to bring bat and gloves? Spikes? Do
- 2:37Speaker 1: I need to dig in with some spikes? But he
- 2:40Speaker 1: said he's not thrown today, so and then it's rained.
- 2:43Speaker 1: So I mean, he had a lot of excuses.
- 2:46Speaker 2: You should challenge him and be like, it's okay, I'll
- 2:48Speaker 2: come back you you let me know which day, and
- 2:51Speaker 2: I'll come back with all my gear.
- 2:53Speaker 3: Not the traffic that aj went through, not a traffic.
- 2:56Speaker 3: To go through that traffic to hit a dinger off
- 2:58Speaker 3: a grace of herdrigazho, I'm might be worth it.
- 3:02Speaker 2: It would be worth it for that matchup. Okay. So anyway,
- 3:05Speaker 2: we're at Orioles camp today. We're in Sarasota or Kratz
- 3:08Speaker 2: and Ajar. If you're listening to us later on, we
- 3:11Speaker 2: will talk to some most players later in the show.
- 3:13Speaker 2: But let's start with some spring training actions. So it's
- 3:16Speaker 2: a segment that we haven't seen in a minute, but
- 3:18Speaker 2: it's coming back. It's better than box scores. It's us
- 3:30Speaker 2: telling you about games and what you really need to know.
- 3:33Speaker 2: So from the weekend, we had debuts, which was fun.
- 3:36Speaker 2: I mean, first off, krats your favorite team, the New
- 3:39Speaker 2: York Mets. Welcome Juan Soto to the picture. Any homers
- 3:42Speaker 2: in his first game, how about it?
- 3:45Speaker 3: I mean, I spring training homers do not matter. That's
- 3:49Speaker 3: pretty cool, Like, it's pretty cool. We'll talk later about
- 3:53Speaker 3: what Braggy did too, Alex Bragman, But I mean they
- 3:56Speaker 3: were packing it out. They're packing it out in Saint Lucia.
- 4:01Speaker 2: Yeah, Saint Lucia. Yeah, aj. It was the second biggest
- 4:05Speaker 2: opening day in spring training in Port Saint Luci. They
- 4:09Speaker 2: had seven, three hundred and ninety four fans there. I
- 4:11Speaker 2: mean they were just shy of the record from twenty
- 4:14Speaker 2: fifteen when it was Matt Harvey returning, he was facing
- 4:17Speaker 2: David Price and Cindergard was coming out of the bullpen.
- 4:19Speaker 2: So pretty fair to say that Mets fans are pumped.
- 4:22Speaker 2: And yes, spring training results mean just about nothing, especially
- 4:26Speaker 2: for veterans. But it is cool to welcome to the
- 4:28Speaker 2: crowd with Homer instead of you know, if Soda went
- 4:31Speaker 2: over four with four strikeouts, still an entertainment business.
- 4:35Speaker 3: To get so he didn't have to worry about.
- 4:38Speaker 2: That over two with two strikeouts.
- 4:39Speaker 1: True, Yeah, I mean people just wanted to see him
- 4:42Speaker 1: in Mets gear. They just wanted to see him out there.
- 4:44Speaker 1: So yeah, I was cool that he hit a home run.
- 4:46Speaker 1: But who was it we had on the other day
- 4:48Speaker 1: that said Buck? I love Buck. When Buck said the
- 4:51Speaker 1: most two overrated months or spring training in September call ups,
- 4:54Speaker 1: I couldn't agree more. I told I've told people for years,
- 4:57Speaker 1: you don't want to know how to be a great
- 4:58Speaker 1: spring training hitter, you swing at the first pitch, especially
- 5:01Speaker 1: early in spring training, because most of the time you're
- 5:03Speaker 1: good eaters on Soto didn't miss it, Good for him,
- 5:06Speaker 1: Bregman didn't miss some. Good for them. But yeah, it
- 5:08Speaker 1: was cool. It was a cool moment when he ran
- 5:10Speaker 1: out there. The Mets fans were super excited. One Soto
- 5:12Speaker 1: is super excited and as Aaron Judge said, it seems
- 5:15Speaker 1: like the place he wanted to be and now he's there.
- 5:18Speaker 2: Good call. Yeah, And like krat said, Bragman also had
- 5:21Speaker 2: a day in his first game, he homerd I think
- 5:23Speaker 2: he had a single and a double as well, but
- 5:26Speaker 2: it was pretty cool. MLB tweeted whoever was running that
- 5:30Speaker 2: account big bragmant Homer. I'm like, let's replace big with fun,
- 5:35Speaker 2: fun bragmann Homer, not big bragmnh Homer. I hope that
- 5:37Speaker 2: is not considered a big bregmn Homer for his Red
- 5:40Speaker 2: Sox tenure. So we'll see. Anyway, this to me is
- 5:43Speaker 2: bigger Shoheo Tani's rehab and the progression here. So he
- 5:48Speaker 2: took another step. He touched ninety five twenty five pitch
- 5:51Speaker 2: bullpen session this weekend. He added some cutters. We're going
- 5:55Speaker 2: to obsess and overanalyze this AJ just because of the
- 6:00Speaker 2: way that someone has to come back from something that
- 6:02Speaker 2: we've never seen. I say that not just because it's
- 6:05Speaker 2: Shoeo Tani and he's the best player on the planet,
- 6:08Speaker 2: but this is the second major elbow surgery of recovery
- 6:13Speaker 2: while he's hitting. I just think it's a cool science
- 6:16Speaker 2: experiment to follow.
- 6:18Speaker 1: I agree, but again, it was a bullpen. I need
- 6:21Speaker 1: to see him face a big league hitter. I want
- 6:23Speaker 1: to see him face Adley Rutchman who just sat down
- 6:25Speaker 1: next to us, because honestly, like I can go out
- 6:28Speaker 1: there and throw a bullpen. I can't throw ninety five,
- 6:29Speaker 1: but I probably hit eighty five, put a little cut
- 6:32Speaker 1: on it, you know, and break break some bats.
- 6:34Speaker 3: But yeah, that's what we're looking for.
- 6:35Speaker 1: Listen, it's cool that he's coming back. I just want
- 6:37Speaker 1: to see how they're gonna use him because how many
- 6:40Speaker 1: van rotation are they going through? How often is he
- 6:43Speaker 1: gonna pitch? What's he gonna do to his bat? Because
- 6:45Speaker 1: let's not forget he went fifty to fifty on it
- 6:47Speaker 1: all the time. Hey, there's my buddy that it wouldn't
- 6:49Speaker 1: face me today. They're scaredy cat right there. We have
- 6:52Speaker 1: a lot of pre We got a lot of people,
- 6:54Speaker 1: but there's Grayson. Grayson. The people want to know why
- 6:57Speaker 1: you're scared. We'll talk later.
- 6:58Speaker 3: We're talking about it. We're talking about it, honey.
- 7:02Speaker 1: So sorry.
- 7:02Speaker 3: He can hit like Tony's stuff, Like a bullpen matters,
- 7:07Speaker 3: A bullpen matters for a guy like this. What is
- 7:10Speaker 3: it gonna do to his hitting? We don't know. I
- 7:12Speaker 3: think it's just gonna slow down his base stealing. That's
- 7:16Speaker 3: the biggest thing, because you would see at the end, yes,
- 7:19Speaker 3: but I think you would see at the end of
- 7:21Speaker 3: his starts. I remember he hit a triple the one
- 7:23Speaker 3: time part way through the season with the Angels, and
- 7:26Speaker 3: he hit a triple and he freaking like as he
- 7:28Speaker 3: was coming into third it was the seventh inning and
- 7:31Speaker 3: he just like it just didn't seem like he had
- 7:33Speaker 3: the same gate. I mean, we gotta ask, We gotta
- 7:35Speaker 3: ask Grayson if he isn't too scared to come on
- 7:37Speaker 3: a camera, like about what your legs feel like in
- 7:41Speaker 3: the seventh inning, because then you gotta go steal bases.
- 7:44Speaker 3: You steal bases, It's a whole other level. I stole
- 7:47Speaker 3: one in my career, So that's it.

- 9:06Speaker 2: Mark your calendars. First half of the promo schedule is here.
- 9:11Speaker 2: Jose Altuve socks given out on four to twenty against
- 9:17Speaker 2: the Padres. There's so many things that are fun about
- 9:23Speaker 2: that Chandler Rome, our guy who hosts Crush Shitty Territory
- 9:26Speaker 2: and covers his team for the athletics that I'm not
- 9:28Speaker 2: sure if they intended this, but the Astro is giving
- 9:31Speaker 2: away hosel two by socks against the Padres's high comedy.
- 9:35Speaker 2: He posted the picture of all two eight taking off
- 9:39Speaker 2: his socks remember this incident last year?
- 9:42Speaker 1: No, yeah, showing him as Sergeant Holko fell off the
- 9:47Speaker 1: ball off his toe and the Empire said it wasn't
- 9:49Speaker 1: a feul ball.
- 9:52Speaker 2: I just can't believe he went to that length to
- 9:55Speaker 2: try and prove his point, and I think that was
- 9:57Speaker 2: going to work.
- 9:58Speaker 1: Scott as a player, there were times like I thought
- 10:01Speaker 1: I fouled a ball off, I'd be like, check the ball,
- 10:02Speaker 1: I'll have dirt on it, or check the Sometimes you
- 10:06Speaker 1: know there'd be whatever little shoe polish shoe polish on
- 10:08Speaker 1: the ball because they used to actually polish or shoes
- 10:11Speaker 1: with shoe polish, but with black polish shoe you could
- 10:14Speaker 1: actually be like, hey, check the ball, it has black
- 10:17Speaker 1: polish on it.
- 10:19Speaker 2: That's your evidence. Real, thanks, guns, charge, Let's charge the
- 10:28Speaker 2: damn mound. Oh this is rough. Since we've been doing
- 10:31Speaker 2: our interviews at O's camp. There's another injury to the
- 10:34Speaker 2: Mets rotation, So Frankie Montas is going to be out
- 10:37Speaker 2: for a while. We learned about that a week ago.
- 10:40Speaker 2: Now we've got Sean Menaya going down. Will Salmon from
- 10:44Speaker 2: the Athletics saying that the Mets view it as relatively
- 10:47Speaker 2: short term. It's an obleaque stream. They expect him back
- 10:51Speaker 2: sometime in April at least. As of now, this situation
- 10:54Speaker 2: doesn't significantly change their pitching plans right now in terms
- 10:58Speaker 2: of relying on depth Without Mania and montessss from Anthony Dacoma,
- 11:03Speaker 2: the Mets figure to open the season with a rotation
- 11:05Speaker 2: of Coulda Sanga, Clay Holmes, and David Peterson. The final
- 11:10Speaker 2: two spots will be a combo of Paul Blackburn, Griffin
- 11:12Speaker 2: Canning and Tyler R McGill. Like got it. Depth is
- 11:17Speaker 2: okay for now, But to act like everything's fine without
- 11:22Speaker 2: Seawn Manya, that's a stretch. Sean Mania is really freaking good,
- 11:27Speaker 2: so AJ that's a big loss at least for now.
- 11:29Speaker 2: Hopefully he's okay he comes back of anything. It's a
- 11:32Speaker 2: little less mileage on the arm coming off a season
- 11:36Speaker 2: where he pitched more than ever maybe including in the playoffs,
- 11:40Speaker 2: but on the short term for the Mets and a
- 11:42Speaker 2: division against the Braves and the Phillies for the top.
- 11:45Speaker 2: This bites.
- 11:47Speaker 1: Isn't this a thing we said, We've been questioning since
- 11:50Speaker 1: the Mets had a great offseason. Yes, they got won Soto,
- 11:52Speaker 1: but was there starting pitching and saying, man, if someone
- 11:56Speaker 1: goes down, what's going to be the problem? And I
- 11:59Speaker 1: think this is is you know Manaya with an oblique Listen.
- 12:03Speaker 1: I know they're gonna say it's relatively short term, but
- 12:05Speaker 1: you got to take those things so seriously. Crowds, I
- 12:07Speaker 1: don't know if you ever had one, but if you
- 12:10Speaker 1: do it and you hurt it and it's not all
- 12:12Speaker 1: the way back, it's kind of like a calf or
- 12:14Speaker 1: a hamstring.
- 12:14Speaker 3: Right.
- 12:15Speaker 1: How many times do you see a guy with a calf,
- 12:16Speaker 1: a hamstring and oblique They're like, oh, yeah, I can play,
- 12:19Speaker 1: I can play, And they even go on rehab and
- 12:21Speaker 1: they play, and then their first big league get bad,
- 12:23Speaker 1: their first big league game, right, Oh it got me again.
- 12:26Speaker 1: Because they're just so fickle and so strange. So they're
- 12:28Speaker 1: gonna play this safe. But the question is, is code
- 12:31Speaker 1: I didn't pitch last year at all? Really right, I
- 12:34Speaker 1: mean Holmes is moving into the starter role for the
- 12:36Speaker 1: first time in forever. So how is this rotation gonna
- 12:39Speaker 1: I mean they already lost Montass now mine eye is down.
- 12:41Speaker 1: How's this rotation gonna hold up in a in division
- 12:44Speaker 1: where you picked them third's.
- 12:48Speaker 3: I mean you can't get yes. Look, I'm going to
- 12:50Speaker 3: Mets camps. I'm trying later in this week, so I'm
- 12:52Speaker 3: trying to like smooth over my Mets John here. But
- 12:57Speaker 3: this is tough. This is tough because honestly, if Maniah
- 13:00Speaker 3: was looking like you're number one, Code I was going
- 13:04Speaker 3: to be one A the season that he had Code
- 13:07Speaker 3: I was, I mean CODEI was going to be better
- 13:09Speaker 3: than Mania if you're looking at the best seasons possible,
- 13:13Speaker 3: and this just hurts your depth and when you pick
- 13:16Speaker 3: up a guy when you go into the big time
- 13:18Speaker 3: free agent market. I know they resigned Manaia and that
- 13:21Speaker 3: was seventy five million for three years, and they had Senga.
- 13:24Speaker 3: If you went into the Burns category, if you went
- 13:27Speaker 3: to trading for I don't think they could have traded
- 13:29Speaker 3: for a crochet. But if you got into that category,
- 13:32Speaker 3: now it just bumps everybody down. It bumps the fact
- 13:35Speaker 3: that they got a you know, guy like Griffin Canning
- 13:38Speaker 3: to be able to eat innings. Now he has to
- 13:42Speaker 3: eat innings, not just like figuring out, okay, we'll get
- 13:46Speaker 3: him one hundred and sixty. It's like any everybody's team,
- 13:49Speaker 3: Like even look at Dodgers. They don't have guys that
- 13:51Speaker 3: are eating innings. So that's kind of old school mentality,
- 13:54Speaker 3: I think. But you don't have any Maniah needed to
- 13:58Speaker 3: throw about one hundred and eighty innings to have the
- 14:00Speaker 3: same amount of innings as he had last year, and
- 14:03Speaker 3: so he's already got that workload on him and you
- 14:07Speaker 3: can't get one hundred and eighty out of Senga. So
- 14:09Speaker 3: you sit there and you go where were all their
- 14:11Speaker 3: innings gonna come from? And it's just hurt them a
- 14:13Speaker 3: little bit more here. So April's gonna be tough. A
- 14:16Speaker 3: few more off days will help if there's a time
- 14:19Speaker 3: they can go down. But we're splitting hairs here.
- 14:22Speaker 1: Well, there's an old saying Scott and Baseball. You can't
- 14:25Speaker 1: win a pen in April, but you can lose it,
- 14:28Speaker 1: and that means you can fall far enough behind if
- 14:30Speaker 1: you don't get off to a good start, and everyone
- 14:32Speaker 1: looks at September, but the games in April count just
- 14:34Speaker 1: as much. My other thing is, well, they know this,
- 14:37Speaker 1: open it up to them maybe going to get a
- 14:39Speaker 1: Cese or Luis Castillo something like that, because the Mets
- 14:44Speaker 1: are all in and the Mets want to win, and
- 14:45Speaker 1: the Mets want to win now, so will they push
- 14:48Speaker 1: some chips in to possibly make a trade like that.
- 14:50Speaker 2: Last segment already coming up, but it'll be a long one.
- 14:53Speaker 2: We'll talk about the Twins sale issues, not Chris ownership issues,
- 14:59Speaker 2: and we'll also talk about the Nolan Arnatto rumors if
- 15:01Speaker 2: we have time. While we have a quick minute here,
- 15:03Speaker 2: Kratzier Boys. The Milwaukee Brewers lost Blake Perkins for I
- 15:07Speaker 2: would say at least a month in change fractured chin.
- 15:10Speaker 2: So they signed Mark Hanna and Manny Margo to minor
- 15:13Speaker 2: league contract. I mean, Kenna was a league average hitter
- 15:16Speaker 2: last year. I know he's not a big pop guy anymore,
- 15:18Speaker 2: but he can give you a quality a B. Margo
- 15:21Speaker 2: had a really down year but still young enough to
- 15:23Speaker 2: be able to contribute. So not bad. When you can
- 15:26Speaker 2: sign two of those guys to minor league deals, you
- 15:28Speaker 2: what are you talking.
- 15:29Speaker 1: About he.
- 15:35Speaker 3: Just not pinch hitting.
- 15:36Speaker 2: He loved him last year, a major league record.
- 15:41Speaker 3: He's not looking at the list, going this is the
- 15:44Speaker 3: spot where we're getting Walner out after Walner had two
- 15:48Speaker 3: three run homers. We're going with many Margo.
- 15:51Speaker 2: I died a little inside during that game. When I
- 15:54Speaker 2: was watching that game, I was texting you guys, just
- 15:56Speaker 2: losing my mind. But in this case, you haven't been camped.
- 16:00Speaker 2: That's cool, that's definitely nice depth. Those guys are big
- 16:02Speaker 2: leaguers still in my mind, especially Cana, big leaguay b still.
- 16:06Speaker 3: Come on absolute hundred percent. I mean I liked it
- 16:09Speaker 3: when he got picked up last year. Like when like
- 16:12Speaker 3: you pick up a guy who controls the strike zone
- 16:14Speaker 3: that never ages speed ages power, sometimes ages not that much,
- 16:19Speaker 3: but you don't the strike zone. Discipline doesn't age. And
- 16:24Speaker 3: with this, hey, Mike Canna, might might help some of
- 16:27Speaker 3: those young guys be like, hey, I'll take I know
- 16:30Speaker 3: the strike zone.
- 16:31Speaker 2: Yeah, the ABS challenge, that's what you're referring to. Although
- 16:34Speaker 2: that's not going to be a thing during the season,
- 16:36Speaker 2: but that's a thing too. During twenty twenty six. Ken
- 16:39Speaker 2: is probably trying to hold on for dear life. To
- 16:41Speaker 2: make it to twenty six so he can tell umps
- 16:43Speaker 2: that he knows the zone better than they do. At
- 17:02Speaker 2: slap we always slap hands for the last segment of
- 17:04Speaker 2: the show, even though we have tons of times. So
- 17:06Speaker 2: let's do this right now. Kratz and AJ are in Sarasota.
- 17:09Speaker 2: We're talking about news that we didn't get to and
- 17:12Speaker 2: this is a big one. AJ for your former squad,
- 17:15Speaker 2: the Minnesota Twins. I've been like, you know what, They're okay,
- 17:18Speaker 2: they're just waiting for the sale. They can't do anything
- 17:21Speaker 2: because you want to keep the book stable for the
- 17:23Speaker 2: sale to the Ishbia Brothers. Well, I'm gonna at least
- 17:27Speaker 2: for now not have to deal with mispronouncing their last
- 17:30Speaker 2: name because they're out. The Chicago area billionaire brothers were
- 17:34Speaker 2: front runners. Many others were kind of like, yeah, we're
- 17:37Speaker 2: not even going to try hard because these guys are
- 17:39Speaker 2: going to get the team and they love baseball. They
- 17:41Speaker 2: are out, they drop out, they buy more shares of
- 17:43Speaker 2: the White Sox from the existing limited partners that own
- 17:46Speaker 2: the White Sox. People think they're eventually going to control
- 17:50Speaker 2: that team. The White Sox, at least officially publicly for now,
- 17:54Speaker 2: deny that that will happen. But in this great story
- 17:56Speaker 2: from Dan Hayes in The Athletic AJ he alluded to
- 18:00Speaker 2: how Jerry Reinsdorf saw the news about these billionaire bros
- 18:03Speaker 2: looking for the Twins, puts in a little phone call says,
- 18:07Speaker 2: want a little more shares in the Chicago White Sox
- 18:09Speaker 2: so we can keep you guys over here, and bot
- 18:12Speaker 2: a bing it happens. It looks like those shares that
- 18:15Speaker 2: are being sold are valued at one point eight billion dollars.
- 18:18Speaker 2: The White Sox shares and the Twins it looks like,
- 18:21Speaker 2: will sell for about one point five bill But these
- 18:24Speaker 2: guys are buying in and that means they're out on
- 18:27Speaker 2: the twins ownership situation, which is a problem. So I
- 18:30Speaker 2: doubt they're going to be sold by opening day, and
- 18:33Speaker 2: the pull adds, at least for now, will continue to
- 18:35Speaker 2: own the Twins. Your thoughts on all of this weekend drama.
- 18:39Speaker 1: Remember when you got all excited about these brothers buying
- 18:42Speaker 1: the Twins, and I said, well, they own a part
- 18:43Speaker 1: of the White Sox. They have to sell that first
- 18:47Speaker 1: before they'll be allowed to buy the Twins. Well, guess
- 18:50Speaker 1: what I have heard this name in circles before for
- 18:53Speaker 1: the White Sox as them being a very small partner. Well,
- 18:57Speaker 1: now that they've bought more be the best thing in
- 19:00Speaker 1: the world for the White Sox once Jerry decides to
- 19:03Speaker 1: sell the team, because they would be the second richest
- 19:07Speaker 1: owners in baseball behind Stevie Cohen, according to net Worth,
- 19:11Speaker 1: I believe so yes, please make this happen. If you're
- 19:16Speaker 1: a White Sox fan. He soones, make this happen once
- 19:19Speaker 1: Jerry decides to sell, Please make this happens.
- 19:22Speaker 3: I don't get to work next to aj very often,
- 19:25Speaker 3: but I also don't get to see him that excited,
- 19:27Speaker 3: like his baby blues got really big, and he's like
- 19:32Speaker 3: a kind of like it. Not just because I like
- 19:36Speaker 3: there's so many there's so many good things, because Chicago
- 19:39Speaker 3: is a big market. Whether the like they get if
- 19:43Speaker 3: they would have gotten the twins, they're not coming into
- 19:46Speaker 3: a big market. They're coming into a big market. And
- 19:49Speaker 3: to me, it would it would allow the opportunity, it's
- 19:53Speaker 3: not guaranteed, but the opportunity for the White Sox to
- 19:56Speaker 3: come back to relevance, which the big fellow would like.
- 20:00Speaker 1: I love it. I love this. Now will it happened?
- 20:03Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know how the ownership stuff works.
- 20:05Speaker 1: I'm learning more about it on a daily basis. But
- 20:08Speaker 1: I think that this would be a great move for
- 20:11Speaker 1: the White Sox fans. I mean, again, it has to happen.
- 20:13Speaker 1: Jerry has to decide to sell the team. The Ryanzoor
- 20:15Speaker 1: family has to decide to sell the team. But you know,
- 20:18Speaker 1: I think their net worth is like twenty something billion.
- 20:21Speaker 1: I mean, yes, please. Now the question is could they
- 20:24Speaker 1: get a could they get a stadium done? Because at
- 20:26Speaker 1: some point they're going to need a new stadium and
- 20:28Speaker 1: where's that stadium going to be? So that's going to
- 20:30Speaker 1: be the real The next thing is is can they
- 20:32Speaker 1: get that done?
- 20:34Speaker 2: Thank you're over cooking the network. Twenty something billion. I
- 20:37Speaker 2: think that's more than Steve Cohen is, isn't it. I
- 20:40Speaker 2: think they're they're more in like.
- 20:41Speaker 3: The together together together.
- 20:44Speaker 1: I think one I's worth five and one I'm's worth fifteen.
- 20:47Speaker 1: I think bye, I saw the other thirty billions. I
- 20:50Speaker 1: thought the I thought Cohen was in the thirty billions
- 20:53Speaker 1: and they were in the twenties. Now I could be
- 20:55Speaker 1: wrong on that, but I thought I saw that on
- 20:57Speaker 1: online somewhere when this all started coming out.
- 20:59Speaker 2: You might be right. Okay, but this is really interesting
- 21:02Speaker 2: since you know people think about you and they connect
- 21:05Speaker 2: you to the White Sox and to the Twins. The
- 21:07Speaker 2: rivalry has in a little extra spark to it now
- 21:10Speaker 2: because these guys might eventually take over the White Sox.
- 21:12Speaker 2: Treat them like a big market. Meanwhile, wait, don't say
- 21:17Speaker 2: nobody cares.
- 21:18Speaker 1: Winch fans have been sitting here, you care.
- 21:24Speaker 2: No Twins fans have been sitting here all off season
- 21:26Speaker 2: thinking that this is going to be the lifeboat that
- 21:29Speaker 2: comes in and rescues them from decades and decades of
- 21:33Speaker 2: cheapness from the pole Ad family. And now the third
- 21:35Speaker 2: generation here who only is programmed in his brain to
- 21:38Speaker 2: say the words revenue and portfolio. They finally feel like
- 21:41Speaker 2: they have an out here and that these guys were
- 21:42Speaker 2: going to take over the team by opening day. That's gone.
- 21:46Speaker 2: Now other people are going to be in the mix.
- 21:48Speaker 2: Sounds like there's other bidders right that are going to
- 21:49Speaker 2: take this seriously again, but it adds risk to the equation.
- 21:54Speaker 2: Whoever owns the team, will they handle it better than
- 21:57Speaker 2: the current regime here? The pole Ads most likely? Will
- 22:01Speaker 2: they handle it as well as d eshbias would have
- 22:04Speaker 2: probably not. We've already seen them take over a team,
- 22:07Speaker 2: the Phoenix Suns and treat them like a big market
- 22:10Speaker 2: team whatever that means right in NBA terms, Right, they
- 22:13Speaker 2: go for it. They lower prices for fans with you know,
- 22:15Speaker 2: concessions and stuff like that. They go after big names
- 22:18Speaker 2: in terms of players. So this is a devastating blow
- 22:21Speaker 2: for Twins fans. They care, Dude, when they saw this
- 22:24Speaker 2: news this weekend, I wasn't the only one that was
- 22:26Speaker 2: crying about.
- 22:28Speaker 1: Let me ask you this, Scott. There's another team in
- 22:31Speaker 1: Minnesota right that recently was supposedly for sale, and we
- 22:34Speaker 1: all thought a certain baseball player was gonna buy him,
- 22:37Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden that fell through. How
- 22:40Speaker 1: do we know that this didn't happen with these guys
- 22:43Speaker 1: with the pole ads, They didn't get to a point
- 22:46Speaker 1: and they said, you know what, maybe we're going to
- 22:48Speaker 1: keep hold on to this team for a little while longer.
- 22:50Speaker 1: And the brothers were like, oh wait, we can go
- 22:52Speaker 1: to the White Sox and buy more in them and
- 22:54Speaker 1: not have to deal with this, And that's really the
- 22:56Speaker 1: team we want down the line, because I think they're
- 22:59Speaker 1: White Sox. Are they from Chicago? And they're White Sox
- 23:01Speaker 1: fans or something. There's some connection with the White Sox,
- 23:05Speaker 1: So maybe that was what happened. Because there's nothing until
- 23:08Speaker 1: the papers are signed. There's nothing saying that the pol
- 23:11Speaker 1: Ouds have to sell the team, and they don't have
- 23:14Speaker 1: to make that decision, so at any point they could
- 23:15Speaker 1: be like, ah, they change their mind, we're gonna hold
- 23:18Speaker 1: on to them. Maybe the value continue to go up.
- 23:20Speaker 1: I don't know if that happened, but that is a
- 23:22Speaker 1: possibility here.
- 23:24Speaker 2: I think they do want to sell the team, but
- 23:26Speaker 2: they might not have agreed to the price. The Nationals
- 23:29Speaker 2: had this situation, team for sale, not getting the price
- 23:33Speaker 2: they want, they take it off the table, right because
- 23:35Speaker 2: it's still lucrative to own a team, so you just
- 23:38Speaker 2: keep collecting your checks until you get to the price
- 23:40Speaker 2: that you want. That's not bad leverage either, so that
- 23:43Speaker 2: could have been the case. Either way, it does sound
- 23:45Speaker 2: like the team is still up for sale and Twins
- 23:47Speaker 2: fans desperately want a change. I feel like the patience
- 23:51Speaker 2: was accepted by Twins fans only because they felt like
- 23:54Speaker 2: there was a light at the end of the tunnel.
- 23:56Speaker 2: Crats Now that at least hits a roadbump where you're like, Okay,
- 24:00Speaker 2: we accepted another offseason really about two years now of
- 24:04Speaker 2: complete nothingness as far as transactions, and now we don't
- 24:08Speaker 2: have a guarantee that a the team's going to be
- 24:10Speaker 2: sold and b that it's going to be sold to
- 24:11Speaker 2: the right people. This is huge for the future of
- 24:14Speaker 2: the franchise.
- 24:15Speaker 3: It's huge for the future of the franchise and the fans.
- 24:18Speaker 3: But who do you think of first when you hear
- 24:21Speaker 3: promises unmet with the Twins? Carlos Carrera. Carlos Carrera was
- 24:26Speaker 3: promised that this team when he signed there, and I
- 24:29Speaker 3: know he had some other contracts that fell through because
- 24:32Speaker 3: the ankle stuff, but he was promised they were going
- 24:35Speaker 3: to continue to spend. They went the exact opposite direction.
- 24:39Speaker 3: They're not taking money away from him. He's still getting
- 24:41Speaker 3: his contract. But he's like a generational type of player
- 24:45Speaker 3: that when you signed him, you made a promise and
- 24:47Speaker 3: now they're going back on that promise. And to me,
- 24:51Speaker 3: I guess, I guess I feel for the player because
- 24:54Speaker 3: his career, all our careers are very finite. In short,
- 24:58Speaker 3: that he's kind of not wasting his years because they
- 25:01Speaker 3: still can have a good team but it's just that
- 25:04Speaker 3: that that lie or that shift in approach, and now
- 25:08Speaker 3: there's no new ownership, so it's more years of not
- 25:12Speaker 3: spending in my what I think is gonna happen.
- 25:16Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a bummer.
- 25:17Speaker 1: It is just to add on to your point, everything
- 25:20Speaker 1: has a price, is Ted Dibiassi the million dollar Man.
- 25:24Speaker 1: Everybody and everyone has a price. Listen, you could give
- 25:27Speaker 1: You could buy any team you want if you have
- 25:29Speaker 1: enough money. If you want to buy the New York
- 25:30Speaker 1: Yankees from the Steinbrenner family and you go in there
- 25:33Speaker 1: and blow them out of the water with a price,
- 25:35Speaker 1: they'll think about selling it. Henry. John Henry will sell
- 25:38Speaker 1: it you if they valued a two billion, I don't know.
- 25:40Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure it's born that and you offer
- 25:42Speaker 1: him ten billion. Guess what, John Henry is gonna think
- 25:44Speaker 1: about selling the Red Sox and he might do it.
- 25:47Speaker 1: So if you hit that number, everything has a price.
- 25:50Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess, I guess everything does have a price.
- 25:53Speaker 3: But with those two franchises that you brought up, they
- 25:56Speaker 3: would have to pay you the ten billion and then
- 25:58Speaker 3: keep paying you because that with those teams, those values
- 26:01Speaker 3: are just continually going on.
- 26:04Speaker 1: But I'm just saying there there there's always a price there.
- 26:07Speaker 1: There's a price for everything. If you want to pay, overpay.
- 26:09Speaker 1: If somebody wants something bad enough and they have the
- 26:11Speaker 1: money to get it done, they can get it done.
- 26:15Speaker 2: Last few minutes of the show here, I hate talking
- 26:17Speaker 2: about this. I feel AJ's pain when we go over
- 26:21Speaker 2: certain free agents or trade situations and he gets over it.
- 26:25Speaker 2: For me, you know where I've reached my limit. Aj
- 26:28Speaker 2: Nolan Aronado trade rumors. So there were over the weekend. Dude,
- 26:34Speaker 2: I feel you. I feel you here. Okay, I understand
- 26:37Speaker 2: what you're talking about when you get frustrated about a
- 26:39Speaker 2: certain player. For me, this is what really hits right now. Okay.
- 26:43Speaker 2: So over the weekend there were some reports for some
- 26:45Speaker 2: MLB reporters that there were talks kicking up with the
- 26:48Speaker 2: Cardinals and the Astros. Are Katie Wu, part of Cardinal
- 26:51Speaker 2: territory and also the Athletic spoke to John Mazzelac. He said,
- 26:55Speaker 2: I don't feel anything is imminent. I can't comment or
- 26:58Speaker 2: chase every rumor. She also, along with Chandler Rome, reported
- 27:03Speaker 2: on the fact that there was like a brief discussion
- 27:06Speaker 2: after Bregman signed, but it didn't lead to much, and
- 27:09Speaker 2: it sounds like Aronado is still reluctant to even accept
- 27:13Speaker 2: a trade if they can figure something out. My guess
- 27:15Speaker 2: aj is that the price has changed that the Astros
- 27:20Speaker 2: will not take as much money as they would have
- 27:22Speaker 2: a few months ago. That's number one, so that makes
- 27:25Speaker 2: it difficult. Number two, you still don't have the okay
- 27:28Speaker 2: from Nolan. I wouldn't even waste time right now. If
- 27:30Speaker 2: I'm Saint Louis, I get it they have to go
- 27:32Speaker 2: through the motions. But man, it is just dominating camp too.
- 27:36Speaker 2: You're just continuing to feed the media questions to ask
- 27:41Speaker 2: the manager, the front office and the players. It's a
- 27:45Speaker 2: distraction and I don't think it's going to get done
- 27:47Speaker 2: anytime soon. So if I'm the Cardinals, I'm just like,
- 27:49Speaker 2: all right, anyone call us if you're one of those
- 27:52Speaker 2: three or four teams and you want to take a
- 27:54Speaker 2: good chunk of the money. Otherwise we'll talk to you
- 27:56Speaker 2: in June.
- 27:58Speaker 1: Well, he's not going to any thor four teams. Red Sox,
- 28:01Speaker 1: they're not. They're not. Then they have too many third
- 28:03Speaker 1: basement apparently. Dodgers.
- 28:06Speaker 2: No, no, Dodgers, Yeah.
- 28:08Speaker 3: No, he wanted to go Yeah no, no, no, I.
- 28:11Speaker 2: Know, I know the Dodgers don't.
- 28:13Speaker 1: I don't see the Yankees doing it right now. I
- 28:15Speaker 1: don't see him doing it right now. I just don't.
- 28:17Speaker 1: I don't see him making that move right now for
- 28:19Speaker 1: numerous reasons. You mentioned the Pee Alando deal where it's
- 28:22Speaker 1: thirty but it's really worth sixty. Well, I think Arnado
- 28:24Speaker 1: would put them over the luxury tax too, where they'd
- 28:26Speaker 1: have to pay him double. And I don't think that
- 28:28Speaker 1: they think he's worth it. So I just don't think.
- 28:31Speaker 1: I don't right now, he's stuck. He's stuck.
- 28:33Speaker 3: Does he want to be stuck?
- 28:35Speaker 1: Though? Nobody knows though, because he doesn't really. He just
- 28:38Speaker 1: gives the stock like, oh, I'm happy to be in
- 28:40Speaker 1: Saint Louis, I'm gonna be here, but he never really like,
- 28:43Speaker 1: can we get an honest answer from either the Cardinals
- 28:46Speaker 1: or him or somebody to say, you know, because if
- 28:48Speaker 1: you're Arnaudo and they're like, we want to trade you.
- 28:52Speaker 1: If I'm a player, yeah, it's great that I'm here,
- 28:54Speaker 1: but you also are like, man, they don't do they
- 28:56Speaker 1: really want me here?
- 28:58Speaker 3: I mean twenty four out of the last twenty five
- 28:59Speaker 3: years you say I'm happy in Saint Louis. People are like,
- 29:03Speaker 3: of course you are. Place is awesome. If you're loan Aeronada,
- 29:06Speaker 3: you see the end of your career. He could probably
- 29:09Speaker 3: play five more years. You're still closer to the end
- 29:12Speaker 3: than you are at the beginning. He wants to win,
- 29:15Speaker 3: He wants to win a World Series. And I and
- 29:17Speaker 3: I don't think he's naive. I don't even think Mozayalak's
- 29:20Speaker 3: naive and thinking that they're not a World Series contender
- 29:23Speaker 3: this year, And so you wonder how much is he
- 29:27Speaker 3: willing to how much of the Cardinals willing to eat
- 29:30Speaker 3: because seems like it's gonna be more than it was
- 29:32Speaker 3: before when the Astros kind of had an agreement and
- 29:35Speaker 3: he said no, And where does Aaron not A really like?
- 29:39Speaker 3: How badly does he want to win? Because he could
- 29:42Speaker 3: open it up to all thirty teams, who would he
- 29:45Speaker 3: go and play for? Then? Who would be the team
- 29:46Speaker 3: that would be number one contender for him?
- 29:50Speaker 1: It would be the Yankees. I would think you right now,
- 29:52Speaker 1: the way rosters are aligned to be the Yankees, right,
- 29:55Speaker 1: are they gonna because they're gonna have to play DJ
- 29:56Speaker 1: at third base all the time?
- 29:58Speaker 2: Right, not all the time it's Razza, it's as well
- 30:02Speaker 2: though Cabrera.
- 30:04Speaker 1: Okay, but if Jazz is back at second full time, right.
- 30:08Speaker 2: As he is back at second, all that they said
- 30:09Speaker 2: be prepared for third as well, just in case anything changes. Yeah,
- 30:14Speaker 2: I don't know how comfortable they feel about those three
- 30:16Speaker 2: at third. Also LeMay who hasn't been able to stay
- 30:20Speaker 2: on the field, So maybe they try things out, see
- 30:24Speaker 2: if he stays on the field. If not, they pick
- 30:26Speaker 2: up the phone and call Saint Louis. I do think
- 30:29Speaker 2: Arnatto would wave the no trade cause to go to
- 30:30Speaker 2: the Yankees if he doesn't there. I don't think he's
- 30:34Speaker 2: getting traded at all. Right, Like what else do you want?
- 30:37Speaker 2: Team that made into the World Series? But he said no, right,
- 30:41Speaker 2: he said change. Yeah, we're you're just speculating on right
- 30:46Speaker 2: where else could he fit? I mean Detroit?
- 30:48Speaker 1: Sure, Yeah, we're talking about teams where he could fit.
- 30:51Speaker 2: Yeah, so we'll see anyway. I'm over that one.
- 30:55Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, I'm over it yet.
- 30:57Speaker 1: I talked about it.
- 30:58Speaker 3: We can come up with like a little we can
- 31:00Speaker 3: have called come up with something like where will Nolan go?
- 31:03Speaker 3: And it'll be like a like a little like dancing thing.
- 31:06Speaker 3: So make you mad. Whatever will make you the most mad,
- 31:09Speaker 3: and aj I'll make sure we get it in every day.
- 31:12Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. All right, this is a perfect way for
- 31:14Speaker 2: the last minute of the show to do cratzets. Since
- 31:16Speaker 2: we can also thank the Orioles players, the Ool's pr staff,
- 31:21Speaker 2: the Ools, anybody else behind the scenes that helped to
- 31:23Speaker 2: make this possible because it is crappy weather in Florida
- 31:26Speaker 2: right now in Sarasota, and the shot looks awesome. After
- 31:29Speaker 2: we got through a little bit of the weather stuff
- 31:31Speaker 2: with the mic, the mic sounded great. Let's let's see
- 31:35Speaker 2: that one.
- 31:35Speaker 3: I mean, give me Rome went in. Rome New Era
- 31:40Speaker 3: sent me this, sent me all the spring training hats,
- 31:42Speaker 3: so I've saved the ones where we're gonna go to.
- 31:45Speaker 3: I mean, I felt like one of the guys. I

- 31:51Speaker 3: So they're like, oh, you must be still a player.
- 31:52Speaker 3: And then they'll see me swing and they're like, oh,
- 31:54Speaker 3: it must have been a picture.

- 33:06Speaker 2: and then you can watch Dodgers territory in a special
- 33:09Speaker 2: time since we're doing these earlier times here twenty two
- 33:13Speaker 2: and a half stolen bags for Trey Turner, who could
- 33:16Speaker 2: be the regular leadoff hitter for the fight in Phills. Obviously,
- 33:19Speaker 2: Kratz has to start here and tell us what to do.
- 33:24Speaker 3: I have to take the under. I have to take
- 33:28Speaker 3: the under. Stolen bases rarely increase, and he had his
- 33:36Speaker 3: first setback of an injury last year with the hamstring.
- 33:40Speaker 3: He's still got nineteen. Figgy, who is their first base coach,
- 33:46Speaker 3: is one of the best at finding everybody stolen bases.
- 33:50Speaker 3: Everybody you're having Kyle Schwarber getting ten, You're you're having
- 33:54Speaker 3: guys who are slugs out there getting their bases. So
- 33:59Speaker 3: you know, he's it, gets his easy bases, the ones
- 34:02Speaker 3: that won't press him. I just feel like twenty two
- 34:06Speaker 3: do they need him to get twenty two? He has
- 34:09Speaker 3: some bangers behind him. If he was hitting maybe like
- 34:11Speaker 3: fifth or sixth in the lineup, maybe then I'd say
- 34:14Speaker 3: over because they need him to kind of push the
- 34:16Speaker 3: envelope a little bit. They don't need that. You can
- 34:18Speaker 3: drive him in from the parking lot with Bryson Schwarber
- 34:20Speaker 3: behind him, I'm going over.
- 34:23Speaker 1: Why is Trey Run? Run Trey. Don't make him force
- 34:26Speaker 1: you to run. Just run, Just run. You're fast as
- 34:28Speaker 1: l run. Got some slides, you can slidell he's still
- 34:31Speaker 1: second and thirty or sleep. Just run, just don't be
- 34:33Speaker 1: scared and run. So I'm going over.
- 34:36Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going over on this one. If he is
- 34:38Speaker 2: a leadoff hitter, if they're batting him lead off, I
- 34:41Speaker 2: feel like this could be one of the last seasons
- 34:43Speaker 2: where he can get to somewhere like thirty stolen back,
- 34:46Speaker 2: certainly capable of it, still fast enough to do it,
- 34:50Speaker 2: so I could see him being revitalized in the leadoff spot.
- 34:54Speaker 2: How would you define his career so far as if
- 34:58Speaker 2: Philly crats.
- 35:02Speaker 1: Up and down?
- 35:06Speaker 3: Yeah, sure, I mean everybody, I think it's been I
- 35:09Speaker 3: think it's been above average. Obviously I'm taking away a
- 35:13Speaker 3: specific set of time. But when he struggled, it was
- 35:18Speaker 3: a struggle struggle, and if you say it wasn't mental,
- 35:21Speaker 3: then you haven't talked to him or listened to what
- 35:24Speaker 3: he says. It was weighing on him. So to me,
- 35:28Speaker 3: he has had a great career because since that struggle,
- 35:31Speaker 3: since I think August or whatever, it was when they
- 35:33Speaker 3: had the standing ovation July. He has pushed it and
- 35:37Speaker 3: he has been. He has been everything that they've asked
- 35:40Speaker 3: for All Star last year. People will argue, oh, his
- 35:44Speaker 3: defense isn't good enough, but I think it's been an
- 35:49Speaker 3: elite contract for them. I know he started out slow,
- 35:52Speaker 3: but he's been awesome. All right.
- 35:54Speaker 1: You know they played well together and it's time to
- 35:56Speaker 1: go water and electronics.
- 35:58Speaker 2: So no, it doesn't that means we gotta go.
- 36:01Speaker 1: Plugging stuff because there's literally plugs and water and things
- 36:05Speaker 1: that shouldn't be connected with each other.
- 36:06Speaker 3: Here.
