OneLegUpAlex Sports- Prayers for Mark Sanchez and a Conversation with Julian Guilarte Ahead of the ALDS 10-4-25 · OneLegUpAlex Media

• 0:01
  Speaker 1: All right, here on one leg a Baalox Sports, I
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: just want to issue a quick prayer and thoughts for
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: Mark Sanchez, who, at twelve thirty in the morning, according
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: to APC Football on Instagram, was involved in a stabbing
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: in downtown Indianapolis. Mark the US he stand out, of course,
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: former Jets, was supposed to call the Colts Raiders game
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: tomorrow but got senselessly stabbed. Updated Fox Sports reports saying
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: Fox Sports saying he's in stable condition, which is in
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: elevation from critical, but that the thoughts and prayers are
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: with Mark and his family and that the privacy of
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: the family be respected at this time. This is horrible.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: He's in town to do a game for Fox and
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: he gets stabbed. Thank God he's in stable condition now,
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: but this is horrific and senseless and shocking above all. Now,
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: I want to share also, Nathan, I'm Torondra and our
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: media's link with Mark. He interviewed him not too long ago,
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: and I want to share that in the description below
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: here on one like at Balox Sports. But again, prayers
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: to the Sanchez family to Mark. No one deserves to
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: get stabbed anywhere, at any time, and we just got
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: to pray for him during this time. Now I want
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: to get to my interview with Julian Giularte, who's actually
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: covering the Tigers MARINERDS series after covering the Guardians Tigers,
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: and we record this yesterday and I want to release
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: it ahead of the Yanks and Jays and of course
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: the Tigers Maritors.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: Hey.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: I mentioned on the one like a Ballex Sports feature
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: that I was going to have some great journalists, some
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: great guests, and one of my friends is on the
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: line right now and journalist mister Julian Giuliarte. Hey, Julian,
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: welcome back to the show.
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: Alex has been a while.
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: Thank you. I appreciate you. I tried to sneak this in.
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: I'm a busy travel schedule, but I too appreciate you.
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: Thank you me And even if I don't the answers
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: sometimes and like you guys are talking to chat, I
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: kind of see what's going on.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: That's just like a lot of different things.
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: But happy to see the thing with your podcasts and
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: you're getting Bob was pretty sick the other day.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: I shouldn't watch that. You'll get better, but I'm just
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: like busy.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Oh it was a special night, but tell me how
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: you ended up covering the Cleveland and Guardians and the
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: Tigers series.
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: Bro, I still call them the Indians too, and LIT
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: even feel bad about it, Like I did it a
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: couple of times in Cleveland to not in the box,
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: but like when I was in the citium, like it's
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: totally Indians to me, not going to that whole political round,
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: but like we grew up with them as the Indians.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: To me, it's always Indians, but they are the Guardians now,
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: for better or worse. But I would say, wait, I
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: think the reason I did Guardians was because Yankees kind
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: of got booked up and now you wanted to do
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: a series. Now was the best one. The Tigers connection
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: actually has nothing to do with the Guards. It's just
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: happened to work out that way because like when you
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: get to the passes, you go through the home team.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: It doesn't matter what the road team does.
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: So like I did cover the Tigers in Detroit, and
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: I did cover them Yankee Stadium, but the Yankee credit
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: was the Yankees and how you saw the series, and
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: then I did go down to Miami, but I then
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: meet media when they played the Marlins.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: So that's kind.
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: Of what I'm looking at now how I got started
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: with the Tigers, and I think he wants to know
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: that too, so I'll help you out here. Is that
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: my company just kind of applied they you want to
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: do Tigers. I'm like, yeh sure, and then we got
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: accepted and we just went and then we went to Pittsburgh.
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: We watched Paul Skeins pitch, and then I got back
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: home and stuff like. And it's a cool moment because
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: I went on that little road trip like twenty years
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: ago in two thousand and seven. It was Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Detroit,
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: and now I ended up working all of them like
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: in a month time, So that was kind of wild
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: to me.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Absolutely well, it's cool, and tell us the company, because
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: I mean, I need a little refresher to tell.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: Us what.
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: Okay, completely valid, completely fair. I've struggled the deck a
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: couple of times. But World Baseball networkers who sent me
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: out for Detroit and Pittsburgh, and that's the one I
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: do a lot of my work with, like the articles
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: and like game coverage, and then Latino Sports have been
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: with for a while. Both those companies actually had been
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: with for a while, but I was doing other stuff
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: that I'm not doing anymore, so it's really just them
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: and then like some personal stuff for fun here and there.
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: All right, Julie, I gotta ask you this.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: I won't get to that interview how with Jonah Tong
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: because I want to know how you got that. But
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: I want to get to the series because, yeah, the
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Guardians coming on this momentum, they seem to be America's
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: darling right now.
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: Then they lose two out of three.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: I mean, I guess it's the beauty of the three
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: game series, but how did they lose their steam? And
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: how did to Droid gain their scene this series?
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: You know what?
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: I honestly, it was definitely something that was a little
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: bit up in the air for me coming into this series.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: Like my heart was saying Tigers will win it, and
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: I was ruling for them to win it because like
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: I wanted to go here to Detroit and I wasn't
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: gonna go anywhere.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: That's to size the point.
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: I think my head said there was a slight Tigers lean,
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: but not a high one have to have the Guardians
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: had done. I just thought of the overall talent went
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: out eventually, but the Tigers just have a better team
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: than the Guardians. The Tigers were playing terrible baseball, no fundamentals,
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: no timely finishing, no timely hitting, swinging for defenses, empty
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: at bats. And the Guardians they played that pesky ball.
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: They call it guards ball. They don't hit the ball
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: of the infield. They score runs somehow. They scored four
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: runs on schooball out hitting the ball in the infield
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: in his last two starts against them.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: So you know how much I'm frustrated him.
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: And I thought the Guardians were gonna take it at
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: the point in time, because you gotta remember there was
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: a situation in Game one that they had Jose Ramiroz
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: on third base with no outs and they blew it.
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: They could have easily won that, and then they would
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: have won the two games.
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah, well it's gonna be interesting.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: Have you gotten doctor Tark I think that's the number
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: one question happened?
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I have spoken to him. I have a clip
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: with him online at Yankee Stadium too. I got him
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: at the presser. He's a cool, too humble guy, but
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: he doesn't really read into himself too much. He's not
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: like the guy that gets caught up in like his starts.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: He always said, I don't look at them that much.
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: He's like, I move on good or bad. He's like,
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: I get caught up in it. And then like he's
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: such a build competitor, fierce competitor, and the guy just
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: wants to win. He's really good at what he does. Obviously,
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: I think he's a cool dude. He's been a really
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: great picture. Obviously. I feel like the Tigers found the
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: momentum when Dangler hit that home and that was the
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: turning point. I feel like they needed that big and
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: he finally got it. And then once he got it,
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: the floodgates finally opened for the team. Like they all
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: figured it out the next inning, and Dingler was the
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: guy I thought could do damage because he was kind
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: of he was hit with, but like he had to
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: go that back to end the game together before went
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: so Perez was hit with and he gets the biggest
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: hit of the series. Effective because once they go for
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: one the way the Guardians offenses, you kind of think
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: that game's over, like to the one the Guardians can
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: come back from, but once you have to chase three
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: with that offense, like you're not feeling too good about that.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: I mean, look, the Guardians have Stephens Kwan and of
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: course Jay Ram Ramirez. And yet the Tigers got through him,
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: which is I mean they only limited to a couple
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: of runs over the series.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: Right, Well, here's how it went. The first game was
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: two to one Tigers. Who was a battle.
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: It was a grind schoolbal pitch, a generational game. The
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: most strikeouts of his life for fourteen he was unedable.
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: I remember seeing him pitching that well. And now I've
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: got the privilege of watching him. I think it's my
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: third time or second now might be. I thought as well,
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: I didn't see him against the Mets. Unfortunately, I saw
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: him pitcher and playing and they got hurt. But this
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: is the third or fourth time I've seen him. This
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: is the best I've ever seen. Well, he was throwing
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: one hundred and one miles an hour, like everything was working.
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: The Guardians had no chance against him. They only scored
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: because of like in the old hits in the bunts,
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: I think, or something like. It wasn't even like a
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: clean run, per to say, it was fluky. It was
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: guard's ball, like what they do, like they're in field
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: ding like you know, but like he's so good man,
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: like he's a legit. He's I think he's the best
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: pitcher in the league still, and the Skis has a
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: claim to it. I think Schooble is a little bit
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: better in Crochet because he's a little more efficient. I
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: know school ball, I mean, I know Crochet gets more
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: strike outs, but school has a lower ra while we're
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: webbed like and a bunch of on a few other
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: things too. I think he should win the side young again.
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: And so it was six one. Guardians kind of broke
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: out in the game two, the six to one. Paul
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: Melton had a bad time out there. Now he's starting
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: tomorrow opening more than starting. But and then because Rochio
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: hit a bomb and you have Valaria hit one, and
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: there was one other one that's escaping me right now.
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: I have to look it up. I guess, but it's
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: for Okio Valeria. I said, we'll do it. And then
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: there was the Guardians. I got, I'll check, but and
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: then I guess the right of Tigers win six the three,
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: so like they kind of even too up.
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there was a low scoring series. It was a
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: throwback series.
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: It was a lot of pitching, a lot of defense,
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: a lot of strategizing, bunting like the Tigers bunted in
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: Game two, and that's actually how they got their sacking run.
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: So the Tigers played guards ball in game one and
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: they won it. So they did adapt and that's important. Obviously.
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: I have to say, like I really am, I'm impressed
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: with their forty two because the Guardians embarrassed them.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: They took their division lead.
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: They had won six of eight against them, so I
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: was thinking that it might be a done deal, that
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: they might just be in their heads, But the Tigers
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: woke up, and then once they did, they reminded everybody
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: why they were the best team in the American League
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: for the most of the year.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: Look, they had that what fourteen game lead I mean
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: and then doing an on seven.
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: It was a dramatic.
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they had fifteen and a half.
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: But then they come back and do this.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: Now can they face can they beat Rally?
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: And the Mariners will have to see.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: But I want to ask you about a couple other
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: guys before we move on to that. The Yankees series,
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: and of course the alds Labor. What's it like reconnecting
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: with him.
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: I haven't got to speak to him yet.
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: Unfortunately, I tried a couple of times and never been
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: able to line it up. If I get the chance
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: to cover game three, which I should have minimum, that
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: should be the worst case scenario. At least get one game,
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: then I will try to talk with him. I wanted
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: to see him do more. He didn't have the best series.
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: I know the first step bad of to day he
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: winds out hard to outfields or I think or something,
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: but he didn't really do much after that.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: Again, we have one or two hits in.
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: The series, but we know how Glaber can play well
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: in October.
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: I think Taurres.
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: Had a great October.
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: Yees this year hasn't been the best room yet. I
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: would say, why the hell is this going back in time?
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: This is so stupid.
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: But anyway, so I would say, like, honestly speaking, I
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: think that he'll he'll be fine. I'm not gonna say
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: he's like don't or anything. He's gonna j A actually
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: moved him up to lead off. I think it helped
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: because he put Medals at the bottom. The Metals did
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: well and Labor had a good first step back, but
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: he got out. I think Taurres is like a good stableisever.
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: It's kind of cool to see him out there doing
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: this thing. You know how he's buy it's hanging in
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: playing well here and there. I think that he's pretty
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: good on the Tiger is a one year deal. It
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: seems like he likes over there. I'm sure he might return.
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: Maybe he's got a good winning environment there too. Can
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: they beat the Mariners? Is gonna be a tall order.
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: I'm entirely sure about that yet, but I know we'll
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: get to that soon. So I would say, like I'm
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: looking at certain stuff, like why is this not doing this?
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: I want I'm so irritated right now. Hold on, But yeah, bro,
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: I mean I think that Gliber's in a decent spot.
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: AJ has hate faith in him. Still, he's been good
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: in the playoffs before. I was gonna say he's hit
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: well against the Mariners. Correct me if I'm wrong, right,
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: I feel like he's had success against the Manners.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, well he'll he'll he'll heat up here.
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: Another guy I want to ask you about is Hobby Baias,
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: who's really seemed to have found a rejuvenation this year.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been interesting to see Hobby. You have a
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: few hits.
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: He he's still swinging out of his shoes a certain pitches.
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: So when bow Nailor was the other home or whatever?
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: We go on the why this game? I should have
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: known that bow Nailor, so that was the third one
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: that day. So they kind of just jumped They kind
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: of just jumped out and that was that. That was
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: how they won.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: So all right, so you're on the road and then
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: you watch someone I'm sure you covered at Somerset. Cam
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: Schlittler made his postseason debut, and what a night he had.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: But tell us about the kids that you knew from
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: Somerset that became the call up of the year.
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: I could tell you even further than that. We can
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: go before Somerset if you want. And the thing that's
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: crazy about Summerset is Dylan Dangler was playing against Summer
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: said when I was covering them, and I don't know
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: if you heard, but I asked him a question about
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: that and someone said they don't know the ESPN. I
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: was like, oh okay, Like apparently they were playing the
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: restaurant on the ESPN. I was like, oh wow, and
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: someone recognized me. I was like, oh share. So dang
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: were played against Patriots an eerie he was what he
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: played against him in twenty two and twenty three I
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: remember him, and he stood out to me back then
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: because I thought he was a pretty good catcher. He
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: had a few bombs off them and I said as
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: much to him, and we spoke about that, and I'm like, Cam,
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: I go back with him before summer. Say, do you
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: remember twenty twenty three when Hudson Valley was in the playoffs?
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: You know, I haven't really followed Hudson Valley until this year, really,
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: so tell us about that.
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: Okay, So here's the story with husin Valley in the playoffs.
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: So I covered them. This was actually might even be now.
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: I gotta think, cause like twenty twenty four, they didn't
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: make the playoffs.
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: I don't think it's a fuck now.
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: I gotta think because Cam, I saw him pitch in
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: the playoffs in Hudson Valley. That's where I'm going with
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: this story, and that's where I first saw man. The
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: evolution of what I saw then to what I saw
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: him now is the moral of the story here.
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: So in twenty four, yes, I was right. Two years
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: ago in the playoffs, I watched him pitch in Hudson Valley.
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: He was thrown in the low nineties. Okay, I kid
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: you not he was thrown in the low nineties, ninety
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: to ninety two, maybe he'd be ninety three and a
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: good day. I didn't think he was gonna be anything
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: like this. I'm gonna take full discretion here. I'm not
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: gonna say, oh, I knew it, because I did not.
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: And I thought his breaking stuff was pretty good from
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: what I remember, Like, I gotta try to go back
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: in time and find that start. I'm really curious to
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: see how he pitched, because that's the first time I
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: saw him. But he gains like ten miles now on
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: his fastball in like two years somehow, I don't know how,
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: like even less Like that's what's crazy to me, Like,
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: and I just did not expect this from him at
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: all last year kind of or to see signs when
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: he was coming onto the scene with Somerset this year.
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: We saw signs pretty much the whole year, So I
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: mean it was a crazy situation.
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: Well day when he got called up. Remember how electric
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: he was that first start. And by the way, if
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: people are keeping count, I believe he's got ninety two
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: strikeouts now between the regular season and and the postseason
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: twelve postseason game, but ninety two strikeouts overall, Julian, that's
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: pretty impressive for a rookie who just got a few
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: stars under his belt.
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: I just can't believe how good he is. I'm gonna
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: be honest with you, Garrett Cole. They call him Baby Cole.
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: I think he's earned that nickname a little bit. I
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: think it's been a fun year for him. And now
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: I think, like I said before this, I thought he
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: earned the opportunity to become a third starter.
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: I think it was the right decision. I really do.
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: I think he's been better than he always been better
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: than Warren. So you will get that and then you
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: are set. So I gotta see this. I'm gonna go
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: back in time. I'm going to find this skateing that.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: I gotta ask someone who I felt has not got
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: his proper flowers all day long, mister Ahmed Roseiro. I mean,
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: my goodness, what a what a base hit to break
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: the thing open last night.
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: I feel like a raided almost.
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: I think it's just because he didn't play well against
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: Cliche and then there was a big bull up with
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: the Jazz decision. But like Rosario has a role on
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: this team, especially against lefties, it's very good still, so
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: I think he's definitely a good spot.
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: Like I really really do.
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: I want to get to the lineup because Boone decides
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: throughout the Paul Goldsmith lineup. But look, I think, right
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: you're lefty, the Trent Grisham lineup is the way to
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: go every night during this postseason.
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: Wouldn't you agree?
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that's what you would think. That's probably
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: the way to do it. I mean, but I do
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: want Rosario playing though against lefties is the big man
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: because the man can't really hit lefties that well, that's
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: the only switch I probably make. I'm very happy. I mean,
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: you will agree with me. You're gonna laugh at this.
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: I would have blew a gasket if Slayter was on
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: the roster. If Slater has been a complete mistake, complete boss,
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: like no good, like he can't They got in here
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: to do lefties and he can't even do that, Like
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: he's It's like, I do not want him on the roster.
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: So I'm happy didn't putting them on it because then
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: what they used him if he was on it, And
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: we can't risk using Slayter in the playoffs right now,
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: So I'm happy he was off it.
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: And then like everything else kind of standard.
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: I guess you could do Wells catching Rice at first,
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: And the only issue is he do you want Goldie's
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: defense at first in certain situations?
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: I think, and Wells has been good.
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: He had that big hit the Jazz scoring on, so
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: I think that, like you want to try to make
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: it as few tweaks as possible to kind of agree
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: with you there.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: So all right, how about Ben Rice? Now, this is
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: a guy that I'm sure you've covered over the years,
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: but want to breakout postseason performance this week.
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: I mean, you look at the bomb against Bail that
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: was an obvious one after he was benched, and then
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: you look at the situation like with with like how
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: he was benched and how he responded, like he really
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: responds to all of that, And so he came in
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: into this work and now the last two nights been
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: really good. I don't think he's gonna say much again
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: in October. I really think he's in a good spot
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: now and he's he's a guy that me.
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: The only issue with me is like his defense.
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: Leaves a lot to be desired at both spots he
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: put in, so like I'd like to see him be
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: more of like a DH maybe, but the problem is
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: you're staying there, so he's gonna have to play the
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: field for the time being. So uh yeah, that's like
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: cow I would handle that, I guess. But it's very
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: very interesting, Like how that is?
• 19:02
  Speaker 4: All right?
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: I want to get to the Alds because obviously you're
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: gonna be looking at the Tiger series. But let's get
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: to the Jay the Yanks Jays. It looks like it's
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: gonna be Freed ro Don or is it Heel gonna
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: be game one? Because Free just pitched.
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: A few days ago. What does the rotation looking like, Julie.
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: I mean, I'm sorry, wow, my head's they announced that.
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm here, I can actually come on.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: Hello, I got you, Julian, Alex Hello, Yeah, I got you, Julian.
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, so they announced, Okay, they announced that Heel
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: is game one.
• 19:47
  Speaker 4: It would make so much sense.
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: So yeah, but Heel and then back to Freed and
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: ro Don and then I'm guessing Schlitzler again, you know,
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: on on if.
• 19:56
  Speaker 4: There's a game four.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: I do see the series splitting up in Toronto, don't you.
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: Most likely Here's how I think things might go. I
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: kind of predicted how this last series would go. I said,
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: Yankees will lose Game one, but they'll win two and three,
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: and that's kind of what happened. So yeah, I mean
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: that's so I'm gonna say something similar here. I think
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: the Yankees lose Game one, but they still come back,
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: they win Game two, and then I think they go
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: like four or five, probably more towards five for the
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: Chets not playing.
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: Maybe it's four.
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: Because I don't make a difference, and it looks like
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: they're leaning towards not using him yet or I heard
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: he might be available game three but on the roster,
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: but non use for Game one or two.
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: So that's that's definitely a possibility, all right.
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: And then your series, and then I want to ask
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: about Jonah Tone. But your series Detroit vers Seattle.
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: I feel like the.
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: Mariners don't have a lot around cal rally, but they
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: have the arms. Can the arms shut down this Tiger offense?
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the thing.
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: Like I think the Mariners already advantage here because they're
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: pitching staff as better as a whole. I know the
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: Tigers have Tarik, but you will get Kirby, You'll get
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: loll if he's healthy, which I think he's supposed to
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: be in Game three ish. Then you take a look
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: at the other Mick Gilbert, who's very good. Luis Castillo
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: as the four, it's pretty solid. Even though he's tough,
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: clinton diminishing, he still has that ability.
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: And I think the Mariners.
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: Lot Bats are in a better spot too, because he
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: will get Suarez, you will get Nail or Julio's hot
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: now he's been having the great second half.
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: And then Ramsey Rose Arena.
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: We know playoff Ramsey, even JP Crawford Orri Polankle the Mariners,
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: I think we might win the series in four games.
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: I think it might be the end for the Tigers
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: Schoobo because definitely still in at least one, there's no
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: question about that, But how much more than that, I'm
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: not really sure. Could Flaherty steal the game four. That's
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: gonna be my key to the series, because if Flaherty
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: can steal the Game four, then they're gonna have a chance.
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: So that's how I'm kind of looking at that situation.
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: And I want to like, this is different than what
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: I thought. This is like, Okay, now I finally found
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: it after all this time, I think, But yeah, no,
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: so I do think it's gonna be a situation where.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: Where like yeah, where that happens.
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: We'll have to see and then I want to get
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: to real fast. The uh the Jonah Toong interviewed.
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: That was so cool. I mean you get to see
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: him before.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: You you've been on the field, a bo cityfield and
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: yanky team. I gotta give you credit for being all
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: over the place, mainly to the field.
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: Uh what's that experience?
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been fun. Man like look forward.
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: So I don't take you for granted to trying to
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: odd to like it's like you try to go there
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: and get them. Joe and I met the Somerset because
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: like he didn't meday when it was Binghamton and Patriots.
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: So that's what happened there. And oh now I remember
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: this game. Yep, it was that they lost to nothing.
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: Okay, I actually saw can get the win. He was
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: not dead. Now I finally found it. But Joonah the
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: Tongs awesome. I love. He's a great dude.
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: I know he and the year well, but I think
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: like he's going to be fine. He needs to just
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: to find some stuff. He's very into pitching. He seems
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: like a pitching nerve, which is cool and I also
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: think that he he has a lot of ability for
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: the young age of twenty two. He has a cool background.
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: Took him from Canada and stuff, so I think he's
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: in a good spot. He's a fun dude. Look, he
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: doesn't let anything get to him. I think he's gonna
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: be fine. So he remembered me when I pulled up
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: to Detroit, So that's how it came about. Basically, I
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: couldn't get him the first day, but then he said
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: he would do it the next day and we have
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: a decent repoort. I guess I had a good tik
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: talk with him and pull up. We got like thirty
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: five thousand views. Actually, if you check my name on
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: tik talk, you'll see it. I think you have seen it.
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: Probably thanks for joining us on the One Leg Up
