  Speaker 3: and there's a lot of fighting in Pittsburgh.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: Okay, so you have your black and yellow one, so
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: I mean black and jet.
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: When that song first came out, a lot of the

  Speaker 3: Latinos would sing it, and one of the American guys
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: I played with thought it said blackened yello.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: And yellow, black and yellow, black and yellow, black and yellow.
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: So blackened is when you add what spice?
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: What's usually Cajun style, usually like a fish.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: So Cajun spice on top of yellow sounds disgusting.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: Doesn't sound good.
• 0:56
  Speaker 4: Wash it down with a old purple drink. But anyway,
• 0:59
  Speaker 4: sad one, Yeah, that's try anything.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: Once. You guys had shows while I was gone.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah we did.
• 1:06
  Speaker 4: We almost canceled ft, but we decided to keep running
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: with it in your honor and just hoped that you
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: would return. How was Pittsburgh though, so you had never well,
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: had you ever been to a game as a fan
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: non Pittsburgh. Okay, So how was the fan experience because
• 1:22
  Speaker 4: fan experience at the park is supposed to be great.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: Fan experience watching the players play was kind of meh.
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: Paul Skins was awesome. I saw some of the most
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: hideous base running on the game that you guys called
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: in the playback. I don't understand it. I saw our
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: boy McCutcheon, who, by the way, for BP smells delicious.
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: He gave me a hug. I smelled good the rest
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: of the night. His diving play. The fan experience look
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: like it was exciting for my kids because they were
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: like kid kids, Like they were like minis when they
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: would like the perogi race and I came back in
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: sixteen for a minute, and like then they were really
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: into like the perogi race and everything. The fan experience
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: walking around the stadium is awesome. The fan experience during
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: the game, I'll give it a I'll give it a five.
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: Like they tried to keep you involved. There just wasn't
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: a lot of fans there. But man, the fans that
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: are there, they love their pirates and it's a shame
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: that not many people showed up for the Paul skiings
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: game like I would have loved to seen more. And
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: I know they want to be out there because everywhere
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: you go there's pirate stuff all over the there's people
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: wearing pirate stuff, no pirates advertising.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: That would be on the team. Wait, hold up, so
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: who tried to flex harder you with Ooh I got
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: VP passes and Hug McCutcheon or Jason Grilly who had
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: to show off his gold card.
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: I would say Cheese, because Cheese put it out on
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: the internet. I just did mine. Like on the warning track.
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: I did get yelled at though, because I was. I
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: stopped and talked to Stephen Draft Stephen brought and Michael
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: McHenry before and so the person that was taking us
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: to the warning track for BP left and so I
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: was just like, all right, I just took my family
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: and we just walked down the warning track like downright field.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: And the guy comes up to me. He's like, you
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: can't do that. It could have been dangerous. I was like.
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: Sorry, So I was, we're standing behind the we're standing
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: behind the line. Okay, I'm not I'm not Cheese with
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: his lifetime pass sitting behind home plate.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: Well that made me by the way that made me go, fine,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: mine your past. Yeah, because I'm like, I know I
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: have this somewhere.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: Find it.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: I did, but it took some digging.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: You should keep that.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: I mean, obviously I'm gonna keep it, but I just
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: one I've never used it, and two like, I just
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: it's just put somewhere. And I was like, man, I
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: think I know where this is, but let me go see.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: You know how old mine is too? So his said
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: the commissioner. I think a major league I think what
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: he said on it was the commissioner of Major League Baseball.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: Mine says the ball clubs of the American and National League.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: That's a whole minus.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: Wow. What year did you get it?
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: What do you have to have? Twelve years? I got
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: it like two thousand and seven and eight ish. So
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: I mean it literally said I wish I had it.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: I don't have it. But it says the ball the
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: ball ball teams of the American and National League for
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: something materials.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: Let's go to a game with your past.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Let's go to any game you want to go.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: We should go to Tampa and just use it one time.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: I don't know, so somebody, some guy on the internet,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: I don't know if this is right or not. He
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: said you can go to any game, which is true,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: you can go to any game. But he said you
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: get the best two seats available in the I don't
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: think that's right. I think you just get two seats,
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: two seats. But the guy on the internet was some
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: guy on the internet was like, you get the two
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: best seats in the ball. I'm like, that's not right
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: because they'd have to put you behind home plate.
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: No, it's not the two best from what I was told,
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: it's not. I don't have one, but the two bat
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: What you get is you get two seats outside of
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: a certain area. I know Campen Yards. They take the
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: minor league lifetime pass. So if you have a minor
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: league lifetime pass, I don't have that one about that
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: Camping Yards. But it's like the concourse on the lower
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: bowl above the concourse, they don't they don't put you
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: in the premium seats. And that's what they said. They
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: extend to the Big League lifetime pass too, so you
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: can sit in the outfield, you sit anywhere, like you
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: get tickets.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: They let you in. It's it's cool, it's a it's
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: a flex at the Rays it's a minor league park,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: so they can't be any bad seats. There's only like
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: ten thousand seats exactly. I'm excited to go to a game.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: It's history exactly. Yeah, I would love to. Maybe we'll
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: do a show from there. It's definitely on my list.
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: I'm getting to Tampa raise game at some point this

• 7:05
  Speaker 4: About and we're back in Pittsburgh for the Nationals and
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: the Pirates. The Nationals got into it with some teams
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: last year and they're doing it again this year. Jorge
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: Lopez plunks Brian Reynolds, then chin music to Andrew McCutcheon.
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: He gets booted from the game. Bench, is clear, nothing happened.
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: Three game suspension for Lopez. He'll appeal it. Davey Martinez
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: on the national side gets a one game suspension. You
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: can't appeal that when you're a manager because you work
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: for the team which is in.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: Cahoots with the league.
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: So there's all the suspensions, and Lopez said, ill Martinez.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: Has to get suspended because when your pitcher gets ejected. Yeah, manager, auto,
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: one game.
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: Auto, one game, no appeal. I just wanted to make
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: clear it's auto. He apologized and said, I didn't make
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: any purpose pitch right there. Been trying to find my
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: way with my delivery. Been trying to find my way
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: through the whole season. It's really miserable to have that happened.
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: I regret what just happened. We also posted mccutcheen hitting
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: a danger off Lopez late last year Carrier.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: He didn't he didn't pimp it or anything. I mean,
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: no sight around the bases. I mean, there was nothing
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: to that. I was watching this on the Pittsburgh last
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: night and they tried to make a thing of that,
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: and no, I don't see that. There was no over
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: celebration and Pirates were in last place. The Cubs were
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: fighting for, you know, a spot in the playoffs. He hit,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: he gave him four runs, but I don't think that
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: was he hit. He hit Reynolds with a cutter. Now,
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: this was bad. I mean I listen, did it get
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: away from him? Yes, But I mean that ball that's
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: had his head, dude, Like, I'm sorry, that's what mccutchen's like. Man,
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: you're at my head, like if you want to hit,
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: and he's like, uh, you know whatever, but like you can't.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: You just can't miss it the head. I'm sorry. Like,
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: you're a big league pitcher if you want to hit
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: a dude, hit him in the ribs. Fine, don't hit him,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: don't get up here. You get up here, that's when
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: this happens. I just have a hard time believing it
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: was on purpose. I watched the video of the home
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: run last year, like Cuts didn't do anything. I Cutches
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: so well respected in the game, I don't I have
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: a hard time believing he's going to run anyways. Feathers
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: and I also haven't played with Jorge Lopez for a while.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: He was such a nice guy. I know all this
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: stuff happened last year. He threw his glove into the stands,
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: so I know he's, you know, going through stuff, his
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: eer and everything, and his control shows he's he's struggling
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: with control in the moment. I did not think it
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: was an intentional pitch, But I do believe that there
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: is a lane somewhere in there. There's a lane for
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: Major League Baseball to be able to protect players and
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: to kind of like lock guys in on the mound
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: a little bit. I'm not saying it would help in
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: this situation, but now Jorge Lopez threw a pitch over
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: ninety two miles an hour up here. If it happens again,
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: is there more of a fine. I don't.
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: I don't know what that is. Is it an automatic base?
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: Even though Cutch didn't get hit, that is that was
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: that was so scary. The slow emotion makes me like
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: not even want to hit. So it's one of those
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: things that I just I just wish. Yeah, I don't
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: believe he did it on purpose. It'll probably be a
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: two game suspension. He'll they'll lower the lower the fine down.
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: Do you think it was an intent? No, No, I
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: thought he.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: Just I just think it got away from him, which
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: is fine. Hit. But again, it's up here. It doesn't
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: matter if it's on purpose. If you get up here
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: on a guy, you're gonna get him pissed. It doesn't
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: matter like if you hit, if you get by someone's head,
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: you're gonna get pissed. I mean, listen, I've got hit
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: a lot of times on purpose. And as long as
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: the guy kept it down from about the arm pit down,
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: all right, I got you. I'm gonna go kill your
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: second basement though, and he better look out because it
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: better not be a ground ball hit, right. But I wasn't.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: I was like, okay, that's fine, you hit me, We're
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: gonna hit your guy, and then they would get mad. Right,
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: but no, as long as it wasn't up here. When
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: it got up in here, that's when it was like,
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: wait to dude, you want to throw at me, hit
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: me in the thigh, hit me in the back, but
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: don't get up here, because when you get up here
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: they talking about life and faces and stitches and things
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: that are really bad.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: Should we have a harsher penalty for any pitch.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: That gets in that sometimes the ball gets away?
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: Okay?
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: You know how in basketball there could be a flagrant
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: foul and you could punch someone in the face basically
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: an accident. But it's like, well you punched them in
• 11:23
  Speaker 4: the face, what about in this case?
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: No, No, he.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: Punched in my accident. I'd love to be a basketball player.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: You can just go up to somebody and be like,
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: I have the ball, watch this elbow to the jaw,
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: knock him out, flagrant fell.
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: Those people know, those guys are making those decisions, and
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: they know. I feel like players know when it's intentional
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: when it's not. Do we get it wrong? Absolutely, we
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: get it wrong. There's nothing more satisfying than what AJ said.
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: You slide hard into second after you just got hit
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: on purpose. That's satisfying, but it's even more satisfying. Your
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: picture puts one in the guy's ribs and he looks
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: back at you like this, and you go, why don't
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: you go blame your your picture for hitting our guy?
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: And then he's just like a man, and you're just going.
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: To first like you're just like like it ended there,
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: but now too many people step in and it just
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: warnings here, warnings there. There's a way to curtail it
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: where it doesn't happen as much.
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: We almost never get fights here.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: Well, because there's you can't slide into a guy, you
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: can't run over the catcher. Guy's very rare.
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: Why even clear the benches?
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: Then, oh, you got to stand up for your guys. Yeah, listen,
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: mccuching goes down the way he is, and he's obviously
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: the leader of the pirates. It's at his head. He
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: looks at the guy as soon as he looks at him,
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: and he I'd give him a touch a lot of credit.
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: He kind of turned and said, like Lopez was this way.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: He turns this way, and he's like man or so
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: he says, like you gotta be kidding me or my
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: head or whatever. He said, you can kind of his lips.
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: But then once his team sees that, and then he
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: and I think Lopez said something to him like I'm
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: sure he said, oh, I didn't mean to do it
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: or whatever. But as soon as Lopez says something back,
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: and then mccutcheen looks at him, that's when he goes.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: And Tommy fam is on the fire and he told
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: us he's always ready to go, and O'Neil Cruz had
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: to grab him the avatar.
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: You don't want to mess with Tommy Fam.

  Speaker 4: No.

  Speaker 2: Better than box scores.
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: Let's run through a bunch of things, and let's start
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: with Spencer Strider. He's back five innings, five its turned runs,
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: gave up the bloody junior home run, punched out five,
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: and the.
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: Braves lost, can't score.
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: They're five and thirteen on the year.
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: That's better than the White Sox whatever the White oh
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: so barely, but they are better than the White Sox
• 16:08
  Speaker 4: right now. Strider also hit five hundred career strikeouts, so
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: he's the quickest primary starter to get to five hundred
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: in terms of innings, right, so three hundred and thirty
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: four innings to get to five hundred k's, which is
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: actually by far the fastest. Do you guys know who
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: number two is? And if you saw him already, just
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: let me know. I was surprised to see this one
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: as number two.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: It would have to be like a Kershower or something
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: like that.
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I say, Freddy Peralta, who's not like a strikeout machine,
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: Like he's kind of good.
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: Bullpen guy that's try left, because left he hasn't struck
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: aus Man, So it was all on me.
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: He started out early striking a lot of dudes out.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: Oh so let's not forget strikeouts are way different now
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: than the users. Well that's why I let's let's let's
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: let's put a giant asterisk on this thing, because now
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: every guy in the lineup strikes out two hundred times.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: And then you know this is the old Back when
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: I played if you stroke out a hundred times, teams
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: were like, this dude strikes out too much, Like we
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: can't David Ortiz News the Twins, Tom Kelly, David Arts
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: strikes out too much. We can't can't play. This guy
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: strikes out a hundred times. Now, if you don't strike
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: out one hundred and fifty times, there's something wrong with you.
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: Yep, well one hundred.
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: I'm got to be looking because you're like, I'm gonna
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: take that fast far right down them. Oh, I was
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: looking for the break and ball.
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: And do you know who's next on the list after Freddy?
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: It's Otani than class now then cease.
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's all guys now fastest, Yes, everybody. Because guys
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: used to not strike out. They'd be like, we're not
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: striking out. We'll take one in the dome before we
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: strike out.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: What's wrong with the Braves?
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: They can't hit?
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: Are they gonna hit?
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: They lost three to one. Jeff Hoffman picked up to save.
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: He didn't blow a kiss, which I'm disappointed about.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: Why they did the same thing on Tom Braves radio
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: yesterday and he's like they were like, don't forget Hoffman
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: also got spurned by the Braves.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: No, but the Orioles were the ones that it got
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: out about.
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: So yeah, but the Braves that got out eventually, but
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: also the Oriols do this still for years.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I think I think he was going
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: to the Orioles. Yeah, I mean, I don't know. The
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: Braves kind of came in, but I think it was
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: the Orioles.
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: And by the way, this is one can you read
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: that for the crowd that does audio.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: Later, I'm just gonna say, code offy. It says Olsen
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: went one for twelve. I'm just saying you got to hit.
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: So I don't know where they came up with, oh
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: for twelve, but I might be off.
• 18:26
  Speaker 4: So it's one for twelve with a single and eleven
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: strikeouts from Harris Riley and Olsen. In that game, Chris
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: Bassett looked like Chris Bassett was dealing woo the young
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: contender in there.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: By the way, Naylor just hit a freaking bomb.
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Arizona is up. What is it now?
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: Six two two and the fifth Corwyn Carroll like four
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: stolen bases.
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: Already MVP candidate if he stays health.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: If they played the Marlins every game. I know this
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: is not what we're talking about with the Braves, but
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: if the Diamondbacks played the Marlans and Cabrera was pitching,
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: they might steal fifteen bags a game because every time
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: they get a dude on, They're like, go, go go.
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: Well, they didn't want Cabrera to focus on base runners.
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: They just wanted to focus on pitching. I'm kidding. Probably
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: based on yesterday's little thing.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: They're probably calling the pitches to them, and so they're
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: just saying, I'm sure crats didn't hear that. Did you
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: hear that? You say the Marlins and the minor leagues
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: are calling the pitches for the catchers so they can
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: only focus on offense. Yep, that was exactly my reaction.
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: That was exactly my reaction right there. A one fan in.
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: Our comment after it when we posted it said that
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: we're picking on them.
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: We're not trying to be different. They're trying to be different. Crats.
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: Let them try to be different. They don't want their
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: catchers to have to do half their job anymore.
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: That that has happened before. Pitching coaches have done that.
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: Before I even talked to Joe, Carrigan was trying to
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: call pitches in the big leagues for the Pirates. That's why,
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: if you back at box scores from twenty ten, the
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: Cardinals got would absolutely waylay the Pirates. It wasn't because
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: they weren't good. It was because Joe Carrigan's over here
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: like this, change up curveball fastball like that is not
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: the recipe for success. For a team to grow and build,
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: you need to let your catchers who are going to
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: be catchers in the big leagues learn how to call
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: a game. That is not okay. Okay, Marlins, we're not
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: picking on you. It's not okay. You already fired a
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: really really good pitching development guy in Jeremy Powell, who
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: build up all of the guys you have now, Max Myers,
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: al Contanta Cabrera, who was pitching like these guys that
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: are coming up and helping your team. Now, he worked
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: with all those guys you fired them. Don't try to
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: reinvent the wheel. Teach the guys how to do it
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: so they can do it in the big leagues. Sorry
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: that the pitches for catchers, we.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: Had the same reaction. By the way, you know what,
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: you know why they're really doing this so the practice
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: squad knows what pitches to call when they face the
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: real squad. And then if the guys in the real
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: squad don't do good, then go to the practice squad
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: and learn through the No Like this is the worst
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: thing listen. I told the problem is catchers are never
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: taught to call pitches until they get to the minor
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: leagues because high school, I mean, heck, little league they
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: call pitches. Go to travel ball at ten years old,
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: the coaches over going like they got two pitches, dude.
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: Most of them will really only have one pitch, like
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: we're throwing a fastball, like, just throw it. We all
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: know it's coming right, but we don't stop it. And
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: then you get to high school and they call the pitches,
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: and you get to college, they call every pitch. When
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: they get to the minor leagues, they've never called a pitch.
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: Most these catchers have never called a pitch in their
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: life because they're always told all you got to learn.
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: At some point, other front offices are giggling.
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: Another front officer going, man, why didn't we think of that? Yeah,
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: that's the problem. That buster post I guarantee isn't saying that. No,
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: that's why.
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: That's why that little thing that they're wearing on their
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: on their waist or on the back of their glove Maysurey.
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: Baseball needs to make sure or the Players Association needs
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: to make sure that the rules are very strict that
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: it has to be used by someone on the field,
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: because when it starts going to the bench and that
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: little ticker, that little buttons, the little game boy controller
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: gets put to the bench, then all of a sudden,
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: it's going to get put up to the front office.
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: I don't think that's a recipe for success. But I
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: also think you're going down a bad path when you
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: allow that. I just I think there's some I think
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: there needs to be rules about that.
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: I think we should attach things to players joint so
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: that we can just control them with a joys.
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: But here's my thing. There's no way. And I've had
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: many pitching coach say I want to call the pitches.
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: I'm like, go ahead, and then they think about it.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: For men like no, I can't do that's too much pressure,
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: But they don't. Unless you're sitting behind home plate, you
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: really don't know what the pitcher has. You cannot know.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: There's you might have a guy with the best slider
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: in the world in that day he doesn't have and
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: you can't call slider. You're like, all right, I'm gonna
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: try we get O two. We're gonna try and throw
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: one three feet outside just so he tries to get
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: the feel of it. But he really only has a
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: fastball change up today. We're gonna have to fake some
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: sliders two one two when he gets and then maybe
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: as the game goes he finds it. But the pitching
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: coach over he was like, well, he always has a
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: good slider, slider, slider, slider, slider, slider, and this dude's
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: whack ball four. Whack ball four. You're like, he doesn't
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: have a slider, But you don't know that unless you're
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: sitting back there watching the game. And that's what getting
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: to know your pitchers and part of the catcher's job is.
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: I heard it.
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: I heard an analytic person once say, and it was
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: like a hybrid pitching coach slash analytic person. He said, well,
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: the next one will be a better slider. Like we're
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: not gonna find out. We're gonna be losing three and
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: to nothing, and the name of the game is winning, winning,
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: and some days you just don't have it. You can't
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: go to the well all the time. But I heard it,
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: they're like, well, the numbers say that if you just
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: keep throwing it, it's gonna be okay.
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: We can't do that.
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: I heard it too.
• 24:11
  Speaker 4: There was a pinch hitter last year who went over
• 24:13
  Speaker 4: a billion, and they were like, this time, They're like
• 24:19
  Speaker 4: the numbers say, this time, your two.
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: Favorite players are standing next to each other first pace,
• 24:23

• 25:36
  Speaker 4: to the Dodgers. That was a wacky game yesterday.
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what's wrong with Bobby Miller?
• 25:41
  Speaker 4: Right, because some people are looking at the story as, oh,
• 25:43
  Speaker 4: look at the Dodgers. You know, bat around and otany
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: had what two hits in the first thing like cool, Okay,
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: I expected it's Dodgers Rockies, but I mean they won
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: by a run.
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: Bobby Miller made his debut.
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: Three innings, did not go well, barely got out of
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: the third and they had to use you know, Casparius
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: for three innings. They're gonna kill They're gonna keep who
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: Bobby Miller gave up what five runs? They couldn't get
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: him through They they couldn't get him through five innings.
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: It was what game was I watching yesterday? Gosh there
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: was a game where the starter went full. Oh it
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: was the White Sox game. Jonathan cannon. He's going, he's
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: pitching all right. He gave up a couple, but they
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: were winning. I think one nothing. It was one to
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: one is four and a third. They took him out
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: and they gave up three runs, and you could see
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: he was disappointed because he just like, can I get
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: through the fifth? They took him out like there was
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: nobody on base, like he was going, just let him go?
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: Was the third time? Right? Yeah, but but his stuff
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: was You could tell his stuff was getting better as
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: the game was going. You only had like eighty pitches,
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: like let him go, let him finish the nick walk
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: up the mountain. That's not what it says here. That's
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: not what it says here. His stuff can't get better.
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: Part Way through the game, age pictures can't find a rhythm.
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: Hold on crash scroutch your microphone is someone's.
• 27:08
  Speaker 4: Coming after you. We're gonna reset you. But I'm going
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: to go right to Clayton Kershaw. Nice first outing, making
• 27:15
  Speaker 4: a minor league rehab start. It sounds like he's going
• 27:17
  Speaker 4: to come back quicker than we initially thought. Right last year,
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: we thought, oh, he might not pop up until pretty
• 27:22
  Speaker 4: late in the year.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: He's already on a rehabb what is it?
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so a month. He'll be back in about a month.
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: Thirty starts, five starts on that.
• 27:31
  Speaker 4: Let him do like a spring training run. They're not
• 27:33
  Speaker 4: necessarily in a rush. Although the option to land and
• 27:37
  Speaker 4: nak Bobby Miller looks like that's not going to have
• 27:39
  Speaker 4: a spot.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: The funny thing is, we thought the Dodgers had all
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: these pictures and now you're like.
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: It's just like weird, right. A lot of them have
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: a story to them.
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: Yes, so Bobby Miller three innings, six were run, seven
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: punch outs in three innings, so he struck out seven
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: of the nine outs. But he also gave up two
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: homer and six e.
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: In runs against a bottom three team in baseball.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: And he threw eighty four pitches in three innings.
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: It's a lot.
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: That's a lot of pitches. Man. I just don't know
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: what happened to him. He was supposed to be the
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: the thing, man. He was supposed to be the thing
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: for the next thing for the Dodgers.
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: He was.
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: He's still kind of dead zone fastball because he throws
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: one hundred and dudes don't miss it.
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: Should should I text our boy Trevor may see.
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: Maybe I don't know, it's just weird. I mean, Bobby Miller,
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: they've been talking about for a long time being the
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: next guy for the for the Dodgers, and it's like
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: the last year and a half have been not kind
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: to him.
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: He's twenty six.
• 28:41
  Speaker 4: Okay, I'll text Trevor during the show, see if he
• 28:43
  Speaker 4: gets back to us. Let's actually go to his neck
• 28:46
  Speaker 4: of the woods next. Even though they're in Cincinnati. Kyle
• 28:48
  Speaker 4: Raley is hitting one or two home runs per day
• 28:51
  Speaker 4: right now, it's I think five in the last five games.
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: To what he does. Kyle does. He hits homers, hit homers,
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: and he strikes on.
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: He walks before that, what happened?
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: Don't say he just switched. He also went he went
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: torpedo bats, small park boom.
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: That's a perfect combo.
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: Here's a perfect cobo crats.
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: Have you seen any homers?
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: Do you buy in Danny bat change for him leading
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: to it or you think he's just on a heater.
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: Anyway, he's on a heater.
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: He does this all the time. The dude's got a
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: hundred pumps already in the show, like he's barely in
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: the game and he's got a hundred pumps, like, let's
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: put it this way. Does the torpedo bat.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: Work for him? Cool? It worked?
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: If you go over and it doesn't work, or if
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: you're like Cutch, who was hitting with his torpedo bat
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: on Monday the day was there for the game.
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: He was like, bro, this thing sucks.
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: He was like you, He's like, I guess, like, if
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: you hit it at this area, you do. He goes,
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: But I don't try to hit it there. He's like,
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: I like where my bat is balanced? So you know what,
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: I would love to have a b that would get
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: me out of a slump. But is it gonna keep
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: me out of the slump? I don't know. I don't
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: think so. I was a career two o nine hitter.
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: Cal Ralely hits dingers. Doesn't matter where he's playing. He
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: hits dingers. And he's on a heater right now.
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: And that showed you how deep the rabbit holes do.
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: So we're working with Inside Edge because we love what
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: they do.
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: This is the best stat service in baseball, and we've
• 30:34
  Speaker 4: been putting up clips on socials. Let's run through a
• 30:37
  Speaker 4: couple recent ones. You know who has the most homers
• 30:40
  Speaker 4: in the last two weeks in baseball.
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: This is just a mark Marcus Rout Marcus, Yeah.
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: Michael, he's back.
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: It helped that he played those three games in Steinberg.
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: That helped me a couple.
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: That Crimination has talked the Jam of the Angels about
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: the move for Trout to right field, and they feel
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: really confident about it, and they've been doubling down on
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: the fact that they said they essentially feel like they
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: can't hold him back if he was a DH, and
• 31:14
  Speaker 4: that he would take hundreds and hundreds of swings almost
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: like a kid, where they need to distract him because
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: they're like, he's a man, he's a superstar in our sport.
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: We're not going to tell him what to do. We
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: can give him advice. But he essentially said that if
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: they rolled him out as a DH, which is what
• 31:34
  Speaker 4: some people including me, thought that they should do more frequently,
• 31:37
  Speaker 4: they were concerned that it would lead to injury because
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: he'll take five hundred swings that day instead of much
• 31:42
  Speaker 4: less if he's manning right field and kind of learning
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: a new position for him.
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, some guys don't swing a lot on the D.
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: Some guys swing all the time. But yeah, I mean, whatever,
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: it takes to keep him healthy.
• 31:53
  Speaker 4: I'm all for it, and I guess they think that.
• 31:56
  Speaker 4: You know, a lot of the injuries don't necessarily have
• 31:57
  Speaker 4: to do at the outfield time, but the hitting and
• 31:59
  Speaker 4: the base running.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: Okay, whatever takes to keep them healthy. That's all I'm saying.
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it makes a huge difference.
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: Oh he's not washed up too, by the way, this
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: is our standard PSA for everybody's Oh, tryout's washed up.
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: Washed up.
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: He's not washed up. He's not washed up. He's on
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: the field. He produces.
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: That's it.
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: Agreed.
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: This next one is a me special best batting average
• 32:27
  Speaker 4: with two strikes over the last thirteen days. That man
• 32:35
  Speaker 4: your third favorite player, Yes, Luisa Rise for seventeen. He
• 32:42
  Speaker 4: actually had a slow start first ten days. Is there
• 32:45
  Speaker 4: anyone on the planet that was worried?
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: Oh, he's gonna get his hits.
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: He's the contact.
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: Extraordinary it is, and I don't know why people don't
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: value that.
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: Still it pisses me off.
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: I really don't know why getting hits still matter. Scrats.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: He didn't walk, he didn't strike out, he put it's
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: all play. It still matters. I don't care what anyone says.
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: Well, isn't it important to have variety in your lineup?
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: Crats?
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: Everybody wants variety in their bullpen, Like they're the Rays
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: that one year they had a guy that threw from
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: here here here, all the way down here, left side, here,
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: here here, like it's it's good to have.
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: Variety in your lineup too.
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: But I'll tell you exactly why it's not valued, why
• 33:22
  Speaker 3: players don't even look for it. Look at Luisa Rise's
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: contract right now. How's that compared to how's that compared
• 33:31
  Speaker 3: to dudes who hit two forty with a couple couple
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: more dingers. It's pretty much the same. It's all about
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: the dinger. And to me, there's tons of value in him.
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: And I think that is why he's constantly sought after,
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: traded for, because to me, there's value in it. Not
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: everybody can do it, just like not everybody can hit
• 33:55
  Speaker 3: forty homers.
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: He's elite.
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: Ftfam.
• 34:01

  Speaker 4: ten FM. Is he a great defender?
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: No, No, he doesn't have to be. He's not getting
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: paid to defend. He's getting paid to get his base
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: hits and do that kind of stuff.
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: He's not a mess either No, he's not terrible.
• 35:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the metrics don't like him, but he's when you
• 35:13
  Speaker 4: watch him, you're not like, oh my gosh, this is
• 35:15
  Speaker 4: a disaster.
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 35:18
  Speaker 4: I just think not only does the game undervalue him,
• 35:22
  Speaker 4: but I would like to actually hear someone come out
• 35:27
  Speaker 4: and speak about why they don't think that he's worth,
• 35:33
  Speaker 4: what his contract is, or why he gets traded so frequently.
• 35:37
  Speaker 4: I think he's making about fifteen ish this year krat
• 35:40
  Speaker 4: so that's not nothing.
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: I think this is the last year of Barb. Is
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: he a free agent?
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: After this year fifteen?
• 35:46
  Speaker 3: Oh, I didn't know he was making I didn't know
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: he's making that.
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: I thought he was last year of BARB.
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: Dude.
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I got to look up where he's at.
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: But and I would and I would question.
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: I would question the fact that you won't hear something
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: team about why he's not valued because the people that
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: are not valuing him are not forward facing people. The
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: forward facing people are like Scott Servis, who loses his
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: job because the team doesn't win, like managers, coaches on
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: the field value a dude like this, and players that
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: play with him value a dude like this.
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: Is he is he a top ten player in the game. No,
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: absolutely not.
• 36:27
  Speaker 3: But I honestly thought his salary was lower than this,
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: So I'm glad he's getting that kind of money.
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: Fourteen million. How many batting titles does he have? Two? Three?
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: Probably two?
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: Three?
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, three, Okay, I thought.
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: It was three. I thought it was one in one
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: in both leagues that would be two. But he has three.
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: He went on last year, he won with the Twins,
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: he won with the Marlins, and he won with the Potters. Right,
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. Yeah, yeah, that's right.
• 36:54
  Speaker 4: And when it's two strikes, I mean, this has been
• 36:55
  Speaker 4: going on for a while with someone like Cam Stephen
• 36:57
  Speaker 4: Kuan's like this, You're like, all right, here we go,
• 37:00
  Speaker 4: Like I got excited to see someone with their with
• 37:05
  Speaker 4: their ability to not only stay alive but then turn
• 37:08
  Speaker 4: it into offense with two strikes like that.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: But Kwan, kwant remember Kwan? Last year, they don Wan
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: him hit more homers and he lost him of his
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: back to ball skills. Just let the dude be himself.
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: Why does he have to add more homers? Like he's
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: a he's a frigging net. He's a flee at the
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: top of the order and it drives you crazy crowds.
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: How many times if you have a guy like Kwan
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: that can run and he's a flee and he just
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: fouls off pitch after pitch after pitch, and then he
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: gets on base and he's like, gosh, he's gonna steal.
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: Now you gotta worry about him stealing. And your pitcher's
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: out there going, gosh, I do this guy ten pitches
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: and he felled off eight of them, and then he
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: got on base, and now he's gonna steal. Like that's
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: a pain in the butt man.
• 37:40
  Speaker 4: Playoffs pitch is better. Watch every quant at bat in
• 37:44
  Speaker 4: the playoffs.
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: It's really good.
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: I think Kwan is a better better player than Luis Arise.
• 37:53
  Speaker 4: Well, he's better defender and base runner too, so he's
• 37:55
  Speaker 4: got that edge. But obviously, you know we're on the
• 37:58
  Speaker 4: high side with a guy like this, love to debate
• 38:00
  Speaker 4: it at some point with someone who's on the other
• 38:02
  Speaker 4: side of the equation. We'll come back, we'll slap pans,
• 38:05
  Speaker 4: we'll actually make sure that you're prepared for some really
• 38:08
  Speaker 4: big weekend matchups, which we usually do on Friday. But
• 38:11
  Speaker 4: we want to give you an extra teaser coming out.
• 38:26
  Speaker 4: Yank's at a monster series great series for them against
• 38:29
  Speaker 4: the Royals Clark schmidz back, and now they get to
• 38:31
  Speaker 4: go play in Tampa against the Rays in their own
• 38:35
  Speaker 4: spring training home that starts tonight.
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: Took that over.
• 38:39
  Speaker 4: That is a good idea. They are going to hit homers, many,
• 38:43
  Speaker 4: many homers.
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: Possibly hopefully hopefully We're likely was when I win that
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: twelve hunch tonight.
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: And I'll tell you what the weather's like down here lately.
• 38:51
  Speaker 4: Eighty two every day, eighty to eighty.
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: Five basically every day.
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: Little breeze blown, yep, warm.
• 39:01
  Speaker 4: Mm hmmm. And then we also have the Rangers and
• 39:05
  Speaker 4: Dodgers firing up a series tomorrow.
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: Obviously we have f T tomor so we can talk
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: about this then too.
• 39:09
  Speaker 4: But de Gram versus Yamamoto, Friday, Evaldi versus rookie Sazaki Saturday,
• 39:14
  Speaker 4: Tyler Molly, who's been great after his first start was
• 39:17
  Speaker 4: a little clunker against Tyler Glass now on Sunday. That
• 39:21
  Speaker 4: is a stuff series.
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: That's a playoffs, playoff matchups. It is all three of
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: those are playoff match That's like that looks like games
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: one through three of a playoff series. Where's the opener?
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: Where's it is that? Not?
• 39:36
  Speaker 3: Are we not doing the opener anymore, like these are
• 39:39
  Speaker 3: marquee names. You're you're a hitter and you're going into it.
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: You're like, well, AJ not me. Aj' is like, oh man,
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: I want like maybe two of these games off. I
• 39:49
  Speaker 3: don't know starters. We don't need to face these good
• 39:52
  Speaker 3: good pictures.
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: Bring it. I didn't have that. I didn't have the itis.
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: I never got the itis. No, I never got the itis.
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: I took lumps.
• 40:00
  Speaker 3: I took my fair share of no itises. This is
• 40:03
  Speaker 3: the this is the series. If you're a hitter, you
• 40:06
  Speaker 3: go into it and you say, oh man, this is
• 40:07
  Speaker 3: gonna be tough, or you go into it and say, oh,
• 40:11
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna get these dudes because they're coming at you.
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: By the way, before we go, I gotta say, I
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: want everyone to see my shirt. It's for Bobby Jenks.
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: It's from the White Sox. You can get it at
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: White Sox Charities. Bobby has cancer. He has the cancer
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: and it's not good. So Bobby was number forty five
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: right here. Grind. That's why it's grind to rule forty five.
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: Fight like it's the bottom of the ninth and it's
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: for Bobby Jenks. It's for cancer research. It's for him.
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: He's had a devastating month. He lost his house in
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: the LA fires and he now has really bad cancer.
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: So if you're out there and you can look up,
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: it's a really cool shirt. Again, it's as for the
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: White Sox charity, so if you can, if you find
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: in your heart to it's a really comfortable shirt too,
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: it's really soft and nice. But yeah, if you can
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: find finding your heart to give a little money to
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: the White Sox charities and the Bobby Jenks, it's appreciated.
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: So thank you thinking about you, Bobby. We'll see everyone tomorrow.
