We do have dial it up. We interrupt this regularly
1:21
scheduled hot mix to bring an important news flow.
1:23
We got a big broadcast to do here.
1:26
We're about to dial it up. Job I liked my shrimp cocktail.
1:33
Welcome back to Dial It Up once again here with some brand new
1:38
stories that Errol hasn't heard in a lightning round fashion.
1:42
Guys, everyone come on in. We got five stories.
1:44
Errol hasn't seen any of them yet.
1:45
He's going to react and dial up or take one of us that are in
1:49
the peanut gallery over here. My pinky is bigger than yours.
1:53
First story. Errol Aaron Judge Fastest to 350
1:57
home runs Aaron Judge became the fastest player in baseball
2:01
history to get the 350 home runs with his 35th home run of the
2:06
season on Saturday against the Cubs.
2:08
He hit it in his one thousandth 88th game, almost 200 games
2:13
faster than Mark McGuire, the previous record holder.
2:16
He goes into the All Star break hitting 35535 homers, 81 RBI
2:22
with A1194 OPS. He also made three terrific
2:26
plays in the field in Fridays win versus the Cubs.
2:29
The only game the Yankees won first?
2:31
Chicago this past season. Errol.
2:37
Everybody knows what I think about Aaron Judge.
2:39
He's the best player in baseball.
2:41
He's been the best player in baseball for the last four
2:43
years. I know everybody loves the share
2:45
Otani situation and they're they're the two best players.
2:48
He is the face not internationally and Aaron Judge
2:51
is the face nationally. What he's doing right now is
2:54
incredible. 35535 home runs, 80 something RBI.
2:58
The guy's on his way to hitting 140 RBI this year, maybe even
3:02
150. He's going to hit probably
3:05
around 60 to 65 home runs. It's been incredible to watch
3:09
this guy play and what makes him so fantastic is he doesn't go
3:12
out there after the game and brag about himself.
3:15
It's all about team. That's what that that's what he
3:17
stands for. He's not betting on sports.
3:20
He's not throwing things under the rug.
3:23
He's not cheating and doing the things that a lot of players are
3:26
doing. What he's doing is going out
3:28
there playing the game and playing the game right.
3:30
I love this kid. This guy's going to hit 5 home
3:33
500 home runs. He's going to be the best 500
3:35
home runs. He is the Babe Ruth of our era.
3:38
It's fantastic to watch. Congratulations to Aaron Judge
3:41
on a great season and really, so far, a great career.
3:45
I, I don't like, I'm not going to take anything away from him
3:49
by any means. I think he needs to continue to
3:53
do it. Is he going to keep up this
3:56
pace? That's the one thing that I
3:58
really like and you guys know as well as I know it's hard to keep
4:04
but a 40 to 50 pace in homers, right?
4:12
I don't know if he's going to be able to do it for as long as he
4:15
can. And I, I want him to.
4:17
Don't get me wrong, I'm, I'm not disagreeing with that.
4:22
I just don't know if you can hit 50 homers a year and he's going
4:27
to be 35. Father Time always wins.
4:33
I don't know if he can get 50 every year from here on out.
4:39
3333 Jabba 34 beginning of next season.
4:43
I I don't think that's wrong. Right now he's having the best
4:48
season of his career. He's putting up numbers nobody
4:51
even could imagine to think that he's not getting.
4:54
And I'm like 150 in five years. But he's not doing shit that
5:00
nobody's ever done before. Yes, he is.
5:02
He's he's got. He's the quickest.
5:04
No, he's not doing shit nobody's ever done before if people have
5:08
done what he's done. Really, he's a guy.
5:10
He's got a. Higher WRC plus doesn't he than
5:13
Barry Bonds or who's on steroids and.
5:15
And here's another thing, he's he's 6 foot 280 lbs and he's a
5:21
512 player. How many players have you seen
5:23
do this? I'm not saying he's not great.
5:28
I love Aaron Judge. I love him.
5:32
Will he go down as one of the best baseball players?
5:34
No. No, not to me.
5:38
How many homers? You think he finishes with
5:39
Jabba? I think, I think he goes in.
5:44
How old is he? Speed 535 days.
5:48
In April, OK. Five Instant change 5.
5:51
Instant change, so like 525 thirty something like that.
5:54
I'm. Saying 5 instant change 59
5:56
because 590. I look, if he's at this pace,
6:01
look, it's just about health with him, right?
6:03
Places friends like. Dude, on a bad year, in a bad
6:08
year, I'll give him five. In a bad year, he hits 30 to 35.
6:12
There's no way he's going to play another 5-6 years in the
6:16
league. You're talking.
6:17
Let's do the. Let's do the math here.
6:20
Let's 50 * 6 is 300 Errol. So if he hit fifty home runs,
6:24
I'm. Going to take, I'm going to take
6:25
it off 650. Let's say, let's say 40, let's
6:28
go 40. All right, 40 * 2. 40 so be 240
6:34
home runs 240 yeah, you don't need a calculator.
6:36
You got me. Yeah, I got this.
6:38
So. How many home runs is that?
6:39
240 + 350 be 590. Okay, that's where I think he's
6:43
going to be. Exactly.
6:44
I said 5 and 590. So that's just just under 6I.
6:48
Just said I'm. Not going to get the six on it.
6:50
He's going to get close to it. He's going to be really, really
6:53
close. Might be close.
6:55
And. By the way, he will be the
6:58
fastest to 55500. He'll be the fastest, almost a
7:01
six. Great, he.
7:03
Did it remember? Let's do, let's do this show of
7:05
hands. Who thinks he gets the 600?
7:07
Close. I'm more with the injury.
7:10
I think he'll be like closer to Arrows range like 5-5, anywhere
7:14
from 570 to 590. I think just with the injury
7:17
risk I'm a little worried about I'm getting 600.
7:19
All right, let's move on. We'll get out of baseball for a
7:23
second and go over to across the pond where they had Wimbledon
7:28
and the men's and women's finals.
7:30
If you paid attention, the women's finals were very
7:33
interesting because there was a startling upset of the world
7:37
number one, our girl Ariana Sabalenka, who complained
7:42
against Coco Goff in the French Open.
7:44
She loses, but then this woman, Amanda Anissimova, who was 13th
7:49
ranked, she shows up with nothing and gets blank. 6 love,
7:53
6 love. Being the first time that's
7:55
happened in 100 years. Absolute dud in the finals, she
8:00
said. Honestly, I didn't even dream of
8:02
after beating her for the championship.
8:04
Honestly, I didn't even dream of this because I feel for me it
8:07
was just way too far to believe. I feel like I've already
8:11
experienced. I've been experienced player
8:13
after winning slams before, but I've never really expected to
8:16
win this one. On the men's side, Arrow, we had
8:19
the new rivalry. I don't know if you've caught
8:22
these two guys. I watched some of it Yonic
8:25
Sinner #1 player in the world defeated #2 player in the world
8:28
Carlos Alcaraz in four sets, getting his revenge from the
8:32
five set loss in the French Open final against Alcaraz a couple
8:36
months ago for Sinners his first ever Wimbledon title and 4th
8:40
Grand Slam overall. Alcaraz still leads the rivalry
8:44
eight games to 8 matches to five.
8:46
And this was Sinners first win versus Alcaraz in the last 6.
8:52
Dial it up well. I watch bits and pieces of of
8:55
the Sinners and Alcarez the the the semi finals against the
9:01
American was very interesting. It went back and forth all the
9:05
way I think to five sets. When Alcarez actually moved on
9:08
to the finals, Sinners I it was that was the game that really
9:12
stuck out to me. The women's were fun to watch,
9:14
but it was really all the way to the men's and it usually is the
9:18
women's. Over the last couple of years
9:19
I've been really interested in in what happens in the woman's.
9:22
Wimbledon this year was the men's sinners putting on a a
9:26
show in the finals. I thought that really stood out
9:29
to me from all the rest. And by the way, I watched the
9:33
Sweet 16 of the Wimbledon when sinners moved on, Sinners just
9:38
really dominated all the way to the the semi finals.
9:41
He he snuck into the finals, but Sinners has been one of the best
9:45
players. He was one of the best players
9:47
in the whole tournament. He was I think he won like I
9:50
think he lost like 3 or 4 frames in the whole tournament.
9:54
That's how good he. Was it would be matches for sets
9:57
but not? Frames, well, whatever sets,
9:59
sets. He lost three or four sets in
10:02
the whole in the whole tournament.
10:03
I think Sinners was the most dominant player throughout the
10:06
tournament and that's why he won his first Wimbledon so.
10:10
Yeah, Errol, I watched both matches.
10:13
I haven't caught a lot of tennis recently.
10:14
I always try to watch the last couple of matches of Wimbledon
10:17
every year if I can. That is the big one.
10:19
U.S. Open too.
10:20
I usually coaching football when US Opens going on, so I don't
10:22
really catch it, but I really was impressed with Sinner.
10:26
I thought the way that the two of them play, we haven't seen a
10:29
rivalry like that since the days of Federer, Nadal, since
10:33
Djokovic, Nadal, Joker. Like the three of those guys
10:36
were going good about five years ago.
10:38
It's best since then. Well, yeah, I'm not saying we
10:40
haven't seen like tennis does great when you have those
10:43
rivalries. I really hope this becomes the
10:45
next one. It was a really good match.
10:47
I hope to see more of it from those guys and the women's.
10:50
I I've never seen someone collapse in a final like that.
10:53
She couldn't hit the ball over the net, man.
10:55
She kept hitting into the net. She was like she couldn't, like
10:58
she didn't know where the ball was going.
10:59
I think she only won four points the whole game.
11:02
The whole match it was it was one of the biggest ass kicking.
11:05
That was ugly, ever it was. It was hard to watch.
11:07
It really was hard to watch. That's why I didn't even want to
11:09
mention because it really wasn't much of anything to watch so.
11:13
All right, let's get out of tennis.
11:15
Here's a great one, Errol. Two of your favorites.
11:18
Kyrie Irving calls out Stephen A Smith.
11:22
Oh, yes, the flat Earther himself had some words about
11:26
Stephen A on a recent live stream when he went in on his
11:30
contract. I'm going to discuss his
11:31
contract. I'm going to discuss Stephen A's
11:33
contract, and I'm going to say I don't think you're worth it,
11:36
Irving said. Does Smith the Smith deserve to
11:39
earn more than Wemby since Wendy's on a rookie contract?
11:43
He was making a point about how Smith and others in the NBA
11:46
media make more than players but aren't kept to the same levels
11:50
of accountability. Smith was recently critical of
11:55
the deal Irving signed with Dallas for just under 40 million
11:59
a year, saying that's Irving didn't get a good deal, didn't
12:01
get paid enough. Irving let his opinions be known
12:06
on his own podcast, Errol. Dial it all, you know.
12:11
What's so funny, all these players have their own podcast.
12:14
They're on people's podcast and they got a lot to say.
12:17
And I'm, I'm not going to quote anything Kyrie Irving says
12:20
because he thinks the earth is flat, but he's not wrong.
12:23
He's not wrong. Stephen A Smith did not be
12:25
making $20 million a year. Do you know that they fired over
12:28
100 people for Stephen A Smith to make that kind of money?
12:32
It's a big problem right now in media work.
12:35
And, and of these guys and Pat McAfee.
12:37
I give Pat McAfee a lot of credit because they're like back
12:40
and forth. And I know Stephen A Smith can't
12:42
stand Pat McAfee because at one point Pat McAfee was making more
12:45
money than him. Now it's Stephen A Smith's game.
12:47
It's a big problem. Kyrie Irving coming out and
12:50
saying that Stephen A Smith shouldn't be making that money.
12:52
He's overpaid and nobody gives a crap what he says.
12:54
That's a Crocker. You know what?
12:55
Because Kyrie Irving has been following Stephen A Smith for a
12:58
long, long time. They're butt buddies.
13:00
As LeBron James says. Dwyane Wade over the years, he
13:03
said that Stephen A Smith is the best of the best.
13:05
Now all of a sudden, because the LJA comes out and says you
13:09
shouldn't be talking about my son and Kyrie Irving thinks
13:12
that, you know, maybe Stephen A Smith's head is flat or brain is
13:16
flat, he's going to come out and say that he shouldn't be making
13:19
the money. I don't judge anybody for making
13:20
the money. I do judge the fact that Kyrie
13:23
Irving was the person that came up with the argument.
13:26
Kyrie Irving saying something, it means don't listen.
13:29
If it was anybody else besides Kyrie Irving or LeBron James or
13:32
even Draymond Green, I would listen.
13:34
The fact that Kyrie Irving said something tells me he's either
13:38
jealous or nobody gives a crap what he believes to think.
13:43
So that's that's my opinion towards it.
13:46
I Steven A Smith making 20 million.
13:48
Does he deserve it? Nobody in the media world
13:51
deserves that kind of money, including Tom Brady.
13:54
Who's making that kind of money talking on a damn?
13:57
Money. Tony Romo.
13:59
Tony Romo's great. Right, he's a Tony Romo.
14:02
Tony Romo, Tony Romo is the best sports play by play color guy in
14:09
the business. There's nobody that can touch
14:11
him. That's how good he is.
14:13
Tom Brady? None of them is any.
14:15
He has a dude next to him too. Yeah, Nance.
14:18
Yeah, Nance is good, but Nance has that unique voice.
14:21
But honestly, nobody cares about cares what Nance is saying.
14:24
They care about what you know. Hello, friends.
14:27
My name is Mr. Nance. I like to play with myself, you
14:31
know? That's all I have to hear.
14:32
And when he talks like that, I could only wonder what he does
14:35
in his spare time. And he's also making a ton of
14:37
money thanks to you, to Tony Homo himself.
14:40
So Tony Romo's the best as far as I'm concerned.
14:43
Stephen A Smith shouldn't be making that money.
14:45
But I don't want to hear from Kyrie Irving the bitch crying.
14:48
Yeah, so while we're on the topics, the great broadcasters
14:50
are also a bonus golf as well, who just announced in his
14:53
retirement as well fantastic NBA broadcaster, Knicks broadcaster
14:56
for 35 years that he's been in the business.
14:59
So congratulations to Green. But for the sayings of the blind
15:03
squirrel fight to once in a while Kyler Kyrie Irving's feet
15:06
pea brain finally found something reasonable to say.
15:08
Oh yeah, he's right about Stephen A Smith basically
15:10
hoarding all the ESPN money. And I think there were other for
15:14
sure baseball layoffs that just happened recently with their
15:18
with their baseball program in which definitely looks bad when
15:21
Stephen A Smith is hockey up all that butt.
15:22
No, they'll just have Stephen A Smith.
15:24
They'll host a baseball. Sure, let's see what he'll.
15:26
Pat McAfee there. So why not bring Stephen A Smith
15:29
on? Yeah, he knows crap about
15:30
baseball to. Go downhill so bad very fast.
15:33
I'm not even going to say anything.
15:35
I don't want to throw anybody under the bus because we might
15:37
have somebody listening, but what the hell is ESPN doing
15:41
right now? What is?
15:42
Going on, it's. Just really disproportionate.
15:44
What is going on right now over there in that network, what
15:48
they're giving people that kind of money and there are so much
15:52
other better, more talented people out there that should be
15:55
making somewhere in that vicinity.
15:58
And he they're just completely looking past and I'm not even
16:01
going to say who so. And you're right, I'm not saying
16:03
it should be Kyrie Irving. I won't fault him for that for
16:08
just really stating what really should be magnified about that
16:11
contract in general. Yeah, I was saying to you
16:14
earlier, Speedy, it's like one of the first times I've agreed
16:17
with Kyrie Irving. It's.
16:18
His most intelligent thing he's said in years.
16:21
It just, it bothers me because I, I, I see all these people
16:24
getting fired and Stephen A Smith is taking I, I, he's
16:29
probably making about 18 to 20% of the, the money that's going
16:34
into the media. But he's he's also created that
16:37
too. Arrow, you got to understand
16:38
that he's like, he's created that like Anomaly, he's.
16:41
Created that all right, I'm I'm going to I'm going to school you
16:44
here OK who created cold pizza? Who was The Who was the first
16:48
person to be called be part of Cold Pizza?
16:50
Speedy Whole pizza. That was the first ESPN show.
16:55
Was it Max Kellerman? No, no, no.
16:58
Who? Was it?
16:59
He he went, he left. He left and he went over there
17:03
to do Fox. Do you know what I'm talking
17:05
about? He retired out.
17:06
Colin Howard. No, he left and he worked with
17:10
Stephen A Smith for a long time. And Bayless.
17:12
That's right. Oh, Skip Bayless.
17:14
Skip Bayless is the one that opened up the doors in the
17:17
floodgate for Stephen A Smith. Stephen A Smith was fired.
17:20
OK. You know, he was fired.
17:22
You know, the conglomerate of all of that was was Chris Berman
17:29
probably, but Berman was the one that the one that did it the
17:31
right way. The right Chris.
17:33
Chris is a nice guy too. I met Chris a couple of times.
17:36
I met him at the Berman. Did it the right way.
17:39
He was the first one to get a 7 figure contract.
17:43
He was, you know what though, Jabba, it's interesting you
17:46
bring him up though, because when he did it, he made sure
17:49
that he was great at everything he did.
17:51
Remember that when he did the Home Run Derby, back, back,
17:53
back, back, back, back, back he gone.
17:56
He always added some flavor to it that made it like unique.
18:00
And I I don't see any of the talent other than McAfee doing
18:04
his annoying stick. I would.
18:07
At times. That doesn't fit with baseball
18:10
in this situation. I just thought that like, it's
18:15
college game day, it's WWE, it's some other things as well.
18:18
I don't think it was this and. I'm putting you on a leash now.
18:22
I don't know, man. I I missed the days of guys like
18:24
Berman that were like, I'm going to make this awesome and I'm
18:27
going to show you I'm not just going.
18:28
To you're just putting too much money into what they're selling
18:31
right now. If you have Rick TBHO running
18:34
and and and being a part of your organization just tells it
18:37
smells like dog crap, doggy Doo Doo.
18:40
And again, I'm not throwing anybody under the bus.
18:42
And if they're listening, well, you know how I feel about this
18:45
situation. If you're going to put those
18:47
guys on, there should be some other people being put on in a
18:50
very better, bigger and better position.
18:52
I don't get it. I don't get ESPN right now.
18:55
Doesn't make sense. All right, let's move on.
18:58
It is frustrating. It's hard to understand.
19:00
Here we go. Tito Francona gets win #2000.
19:06
Yes, he is now the 13th manager in baseball history to win 2000
19:12
games. I don't think I've ever tried to
19:14
delude myself. I mean, some of those names up
19:17
there are kind of like baseball royalty.
19:19
Francona said. If there's an adjective for
19:22
baseball lifer, it's me. I'm not overly smart.
19:25
I just love the game, probably too much.
19:27
Francono, 66, joins Rangers manager Bruce Bochi as the only
19:32
two active managers with 2000 wins.
19:35
Francona famously managed the Red Sox in 2004 to break the
19:38
Curse of the Bambino and in 2007 in those championship teams also
19:42
managed Cleveland to the World Series in 2016.
19:47
Errol. Oh, and last thing, only Bochy
19:49
and Dusty Baker, who are who aren't eligible yet, are not in
19:53
the Hall of Fame with over 2000 wins.
19:57
Errol. First of all, I, I had
20:01
conversations with Goody about this guy.
20:03
This guy is one of his favorite managers.
20:06
I know Joppa said it's one of his favorite managers.
20:08
So I'm sure he's an incredible manager.
20:10
I can't stand him because he was the guy that absolutely crushed
20:15
me as a Yankee fan. So I, I know who Terry Francona
20:18
is. I've heard he's a good guy.
20:19
He's a great guy. He's a baseball lifer.
20:21
The fact that he had 2000 wins, congratulations to him.
20:24
I, I, I think very well deserved.
20:26
He's been a lifer and he's he's done.
20:28
In a way where you can't hate on him.
20:30
He's gone everywhere and he's won everywhere he's gone not
20:34
championships. He's made those teams a winning
20:36
organization, very successful everywhere he's gone and he
20:39
knows how to coach players and manage players.
20:42
He puts them in the best position to win.
20:44
You can't hate on a guy like that.
20:46
I just hated him when he was a Boston Red Sox.
20:48
But he's a winner and you love winners. 2000 wins, very well
20:53
deserved and and a guy that nobody is.
20:56
I've never heard anybody say anything bad about Terry
20:58
Francona. And by the way, Theo Epstein had
21:02
to take, you know, he had to take a a hunch on this guy and
21:06
he hunched right. One of the best managers of this
21:09
era, the one in only. He, he, he was awesome.
21:13
Like I'll, it was so funny. I was, I was walking spring
21:17
training one day and this is when he had to take the bullet
21:23
for them and the Red Sox. And I think this is 2008 and he
21:31
was working at ESPN at that point.
21:32
And he's like, I hated you. But he goes, I can root for you
21:36
now. And then I got to play for him.
21:38
And you know, the greatest thing too, being a father and my son
21:46
and everything is, is the most important thing in my life.
21:51
And Tito, when I signed, he goes, I don't care what your son
21:58
does, don't care what he does. He goes, I only have one rule.
22:03
I have one rule. They come and say hi to me and
22:08
like as a father and as a man and as a son, that my dad
22:17
respect that. Please and thank you.
22:19
It's very first and foremost. And he goes, you can come my
22:24
clubhouse anytime you want, but you're going to respect me, come
22:27
see me first. And he did that and he was so
22:32
great. And Tito deserves all the love,
22:37
all the love. I know.
22:39
We, we, we had our run insurance.
22:41
We had our run in and they were very, very fun.
22:46
And he didn't like me, but when I got to play for him, he he was
22:52
just absolutely great human being.
22:56
Awesome. Let's move on.
22:59
That's got, I mean, clearly a Hall of Famer, right?
23:02
Errol got like. Has to be, has to be right if.
23:04
There's a Hall of the definition of a Hall of Fame.
23:06
Has to be though, right? I mean, he's got the wins now
23:10
that that basically solidifies it.
23:12
It's got 2 World Series and a third appearance.
23:15
It's it's hard to argue. And now he's turning, trying to
23:17
turn around this. I am a legend.
23:20
So should be excited to see if he can do it over there.
23:22
I think there's still a couple of years away, though.
23:24
All right, last story, it's Cooper Flag being shut down for
23:30
the rest of summer League. Flag played in only two games
23:34
for the Summer League. He was shut down by The
23:36
Mavericks. He had an up and down first
23:39
night, poor shooting but had the game-winning two way play with a
23:43
block at one end with a nice assist at the other end to win
23:47
the game and then had 31 points. Was his dominant self in a loss
23:52
to San Antonio on Saturday. The Mavericks apparently have
23:56
seen enough to know what they have in Flag.
23:59
As we know, Flag was the Wooden Player of the Year Naismith
24:02
Player of the year last year, averaging 19.2 points, 7.5
24:06
rebounds and 4.2 who assists for Duke in their Final Four run
24:10
last season. Arrow a little early to shut him
24:13
down. Did they even need to play him
24:15
at all? Dial it up I.
24:17
Would have liked to see him finish the summer.
24:19
He's special and I don't think he needed to play.
24:23
But again, you want a guy that's going to go out there and
24:26
compete. He's a competitor, he is going
24:28
to. Did you want him?
24:30
Did they want him not to play or like no, they just wouldn't.
24:33
They probably told him there's no need for him to play anymore.
24:36
But he's a competitor. He likes to go out there and
24:38
compete. That's what you like.
24:40
This is a kid that's always competed no matter where and
24:42
what team he played for. He's one of those guys and this
24:46
guy's going to win Rookie of the Year.
24:47
I don't think you can argue it. There's only one other guy that
24:50
has a chance to win Rookie of the Year, and that's the guy
24:52
that's playing in San Antonio. But I I just think that he's
24:55
he's by far the best player in this year's draft.
24:58
But what he does as a person, as a team player, that's what
25:02
stands out to me. I don't think he gives a crap if
25:05
he's playing or he doesn't. I just want to see him out
25:07
there. The fact that Dallas shut him
25:09
down. Dallas didn't have to shut him
25:10
down. They're just trying to protect
25:12
him and make sure he'll be ready for the season.
25:14
He is going to be a selling point for that organization to
25:17
try to break a casino in. Everybody knows that's what
25:19
they're trying to do. Cooper flag if he becomes the
25:22
superstar that I believe he's going to become like a I've been
25:24
saying over the last eight years he's going to become he's a must
25:27
see must money bank maker. Mavericks are going to get the
25:30
opportunity to bring a casino in and the organization's going to
25:33
get what they want and he's going to be a tall tall sell for
25:37
the NBA moving forward. So to go to the LJA, to the CFA.
25:46
What's it going to be called now?
25:49
The CFA, the Cooper Flag Association, because I think
25:52
he's going to take over the league and really transition the
25:55
league into higher heights for team, for American basketball,
25:58
which they absolutely need because Anthony Edwards is a
26:01
crybaby and he can't handle it so.
26:03
Yeah, I mean, it's definitely weird the fact that they just
26:05
only played them two games. And of course the only big
26:07
marketable game was against him and Bronny James, which you can
26:11
take that for what you want for whatever it is.
26:13
But basically, I don't know. It's it is it's kind of odd the
26:15
fact that they decided to let him play and really, like I all
26:18
said, you really, they're really just looking forward to next
26:20
season, having him ready to be the superstar that we all know
26:23
he's going to be. Cooper Flag is definitely going
26:24
to be a superstar within this league.
26:26
But the whole point is, is I just find it very strange the
26:28
fact this is that of course, summer league isn't really
26:30
watched upon as much anymore. I don't even know if it was at
26:34
one point, but it's very strange to just give him two games and
26:38
then kind of just. No, it's not.
26:39
It's The Mavericks. How?
26:41
How strange is it? That is true.
26:42
Very strange organization. By the way, since Cooper Flag
26:45
has been drafted by the Dallas Mavericks.
26:48
Listen to this Dallas Mavericks. He is in the top ten in jersey
26:52
sales right now in the NBA top ten I was.
26:54
Just going to say, I think it was kind of weird only two
26:56
games. I mean, like the Cooper flag,
26:58
number one overall pick, he probably is ready and he's ready
27:00
to go. But I mean, if you see in three
27:02
seasons since our leagues to like the NFL, if you look at it
27:05
like Caleb Williams, most of these teams like they don't
27:07
really want to, you know, start the franchise quarterback in
27:09
three season because they just think, oh, he's going to be our
27:11
guy. He's ready.
27:13
Then you look, they start the season out and they kind of
27:15
struggle like they're not really up to game with the speed
27:17
because, you know, the transition from college to the
27:19
pros, unless you're Jaden Daniels or someone like that or
27:22
LeBron, you know, you generally don't come out of the gate
27:25
swinging and firing on all the cylinders.
27:27
So I would think it would be a sense for him to play a couple
27:29
more games. But I guess they feel that, you
27:31
know, he's ready to go. So we'll see how Cooper Flag
27:34
does. I'm sure he'll be fine.
27:35
But you know, I think it would have been probably better.
27:37
Nico's an idiot, Nico's an idiot, and Nico should honestly
27:42
either play him or not if you're going to play him for two games.
27:45
Playing for the rest of the summer league, if I was Cooper
27:47
Flag, I'm a competitor of I, I don't, I don't want to.
27:50
I don't want to be any part of this organization the way
27:53
they're already ruining me for the summer.
27:55
Everybody is selling out those games.
27:57
When Cooper Flag was playing, those games were sold out.
28:01
Summer Games sold out. Why isn't he playing?
28:04
It makes no sense. But again, Nico is not one of
28:07
the smartest guys and definitely not a person I want to run my
28:11
organization. I mean, hey, Errol, they got
28:12
their they got their TikTok, but they got brownie versus flags.
28:15
They're like, all right, that's nothing for them.
28:17
We don't need it. We're.
28:18
Going to say something? About that.
28:19
The fact that they gave that a whole graphic, a whole tagline,
28:21
like you're actually getting a really interesting matchup.
28:25
It's just absolutely laughable. It's it's ridiculous.
28:27
Flag Ronnie tonight. No, no, no faking it.
28:31
No, no, no flag, Ronnie. LJA Vegas.
28:37
Arrow By the time LeBron retires, you'll have both the
28:40
Eastern and Western conferences named after his son, the Bronny
28:42
and Bryce conference Bryce. If you want a bar.
28:46
Bronny Junior Conference, that's.
28:48
Right. Yeah, the summer, the Summer
28:49
League award. They'll they'll call it the
28:50
Bronny Games Award. Thinking of guys that you think
28:53
are dumb on Carl in the comments section.
28:55
Flag a competitor just like the great John Shire Stop.
28:58
Arrow's favorite? John Shire, who choked, choked
29:02
in a final four. Great.
29:04
Pretty pretty bad job maybe. Nico Harrison will be dumb
29:07
enough to fire Jason and hire John Shire.
29:09
Don't worry, Carl, after he chokes again with the team, even
29:12
a better team than he had this past year, he will be fired.
29:15
That is, that was an absolute choke by John, AKA Idiot Shire.
29:21
All right, I don't know why everybody has this love fest for
29:24
this guy. He's A to me, he's a failure.
29:27
He was a failure as a player. And by the way, he didn't have
29:31
much an NBA career. I don't want to hear it by what
29:33
was his name? Yeah, a guy that is just a
29:37
defensive player in the league. I'm not going to mention
29:38
podcast, you know, but there's somebody that plays in the NBA
29:42
that said his feelings about John Shire, how great of a
29:44
player was. And to me, John Shire has been
29:47
handed, handed a key by Coach K and a key that I want to run
29:52
into a tree. No offense.
29:54
That is just an absolute debacle, all right?
29:56
I got it. Just got to hope that Nico
29:58
Harrison is done. That was embarrassing for the
30:00
how do you go up? How are you up 14 points with 2
30:03
1/2 minutes left and you let Houston come all a defensive
30:06
team come all the way back to win a game and you were up by
30:09
almost eight points with 50 seconds and you let A-Team come
30:13
back and beat you. Embarrassing embarrassment.
30:16
John Shire choke friggin artist. Sell that post that bitch.
30:22
I'm sorry and. Then Tom Tebido must have
30:24
learned from him two months later when the Knicks did.
30:26
I I hate rooting for Duke, you know, because now I got to watch
30:29
a, a coach that absolutely is a deer in the headlights.
30:32
Reminds me of one guy named, Oh yeah, Robert Sala.
30:35
That's, that's the guy. Bambi himself.
30:38
What is he saying right here? I was a failure.
30:39
Of a player he won a title. Yeah, he oh, wait a second.
30:42
He won a title. Did did you just say John Shire
30:44
won a title? Coach K is the title maker here
30:49
and John Shire had nothing. By the way, what did John Shire
30:52
do in the finals? What did he do in the finals?
30:55
That's what I want to ask because he wasn't the best
30:58
player on the floor from the finals, Carl.
31:00
So stop selling me something. And by the way, Kevin, you're
31:04
right, Chisholm is a jizz is a jizz package.
31:06
As much as I could say about John Shire, I would rather. 15
31:11
points in the game against Butler in that game that they
31:15
almost lost on that bank shot by Gordon Hayward at.
31:18
The last second, who was a very high profile player when he came
31:22
out of the draft. Oh, he was awesome, awesome in
31:25
college. He just couldn't stay healthy.
31:28
Who drafted him? Was it Carolina, Utah.
31:30
Utah. Gordon Hayward, He.
31:31
Started in the. Hornets.
31:33
The Hornets, the connection with them is I think he failed a
31:34
physical with them and then went to the Celtics after that or
31:37
something. I hate John Shire, I can't stand
31:39
them. So Carl, get off his jock strap
31:41
please. It's disgusting.
31:44
I mean, I coached him in high school.
31:46
I love you, Carl. Stop with this.
31:48
You're you're becoming Nith. You're becoming this, this
31:51
Nithkin. You like Carla, Nathan.
31:53
You like to bring up Nathan with his, you know, his high school
31:57
softball. Now you're talking about and
32:00
pickleball. But, you know, I got to pick on
32:02
you when you I coached him in high school.
32:05
Yeah. Give me a break.
32:07
Bagel hole that's. About all I think about when I
32:09
think of John Shire. A nice little bagel hole.
32:11
All right, ladies and gentlemen, we might as well get into King
32:15
of the Hill. And here's the king of the Hill.
32:19
This, Bobby, is the Beltline. You never, ever hit below that.
32:23
Not that kind of King of the hill.
32:25
You dumb Ready? Are you ready?
32:27
This is King of the Hill. Yeah, because the word jizz is
32:31
really structured. It's not structured enough for
32:34
jazz, apparently. Let's get the music on for King
32:39
of the Hill. Let's get Aaron in here on this
32:43
one. Get in here, Aaron.
32:45
I will play as well. I don't know how good my
32:49
graphics are going to be tonight.
32:50
I don't know what we're doing MLB right, but we're going to
32:53
stay in baseball considering it's the only sport going on
32:56
right now. We will go with the peasant
32:59
fight. So again, we will all take on
33:01
Errol. Errol is our reigning king.
33:03
Our tired king. Is this tired King?
33:05
That king is weak. I will be playing as well since
33:08
we only have three contestants so it'll be 4 contestants like
33:10
always. Peasant fight is the first round
33:13
99 best power hitters since the year 2000.
33:20
So again has to be since the year 2000.
33:22
Could it be a guy that played before that?
33:24
But we're really trying to focus on 2000 forwards, not someone
33:28
who did a lot in the 90s. No, these are these are the only
33:31
competitors everyone else asked out.
33:33
So here we go. I'll go last.
33:36
We'll start down at the bottom with Aaron, then Speedy and Job
33:40
and I'll go end the round to go back for two.
33:43
Aaron. All right, off the top of my
33:47
head, which said power hitters, Jason Giambi, I mean, look, but
33:50
it was before my time. But one of those I look, it's
33:53
the one that came straight to my head.
33:55
I'm going to go with Jason Giambi with my first one, not a
33:57
crazy one, but I'm going to stick with him.
33:59
Keep a look. Speedy, All right, I'll.
34:01
Steal the obvious one, Why not Barry Bonds 73 home run season?
34:04
Jason Giambi, 760. Two, we set record in 2007 and
34:10
obviously breaking Hank Aaron's record, who was 755 and still
34:14
extended it even to that day. He probably hit more home runs
34:16
in the decade that a lot of guys did in their careers.
34:18
And obviously that season was the biggest one we're still
34:21
seeing if anyone can catch. So Barry Bonds obvious 1 here.
34:25
Jabba, I'm going to be an asshole.
34:31
I got to take Aaron Judge have to in the end.
34:36
Why is that? Being in and you know, obviously
34:42
doing what he has done in the amount of time that he's done,
34:47
coming up late in his career and not being like a real like first
34:54
round draft pick, like being to the forefront of everything.
35:02
It took him a while and to see him like, and I'm not sold on
35:08
him. His numbers are sold on the
35:12
self. I, I'm, I'm still not, I'm not
35:17
sold on him yet. I'm really not.
35:20
But he's he's he's, he's in the conversation.
35:24
He's in this conversation. All right, I'm putting you on a
35:27
leash now. Well, I'll take guys whose
35:30
numbers I am sold on. I'll start with Albert Pujols
35:32
because Albert Pujols had a 10 year stretch the 1st 10 years of
35:35
his career. Damn it, you took mine?
35:37
That. He's a bagel.
35:39
Dominated. He's got, I believe, more home
35:43
runs than all but five players ever.
35:45
Good for me. So I would take Albert Pujols.
35:48
There's also a 300 hitter for the first half of his career.
35:51
He was absolutely unstoppable. The second guy I'm going to take
35:55
killed me as a Yankees fan for a long time.
35:58
I'm talking. About Oh, I know you're doing
36:00
big. Poppy has to be mentioned if
36:01
you're going to talk about guys from since 2000, man.
36:04
My dad. My dad's favorite player.
36:06
If are you a meat Bender? If you can serve it up, say you
36:11
have an advantage over Mariano Rivera, you're an elite few
36:15
company. Big Poppy.
36:17
Java. Who did steroids, by the way?
36:18
Just so you know well. Never, never was charged for it.
36:24
That wasn't part of the criteria on this list.
36:26
It should have been. All right, back to Jabba.
36:30
I'm I'm going to go Miggy. Miggy for me was one of the
36:38
hardest hitters I've ever had. To get out and to hit over 500
36:44
homers and to hit over 300, not only was it homers, he gets you
36:51
gap to gap. He played third base, he played
36:56
first base. Miguel Cabrera is in that
37:01
conversation of, in this realm, top ten of everything that he's
37:08
done. Was he not great defensively?
37:10
No, he was serviceable. But when you faced him at the
37:16
plate, it was different. It was different.
37:21
Speedy. All right.
37:23
I'll go to home measure your point Fish.
37:25
Another guy on the Red Sox, Manny Ramirez had 55051I believe
37:30
career home runs and Chase, one of the best playoff hitters as
37:33
well when they came into the home runs, did it with the Red
37:35
Sox for a very long time helping him break the curse along with
37:38
like you said, just steak coffee.
37:39
Obviously his Dodgers tenure wasn't as good, but still in
37:42
some productive season still was able to get over 550 career home
37:45
runs. Yeah, there's always going to be
37:46
steroid questions with him 1/2. Can't go wrong with having
37:53
detect Manny Ramirez Aaron for. 2 So my first pick, I'm going to
37:56
go with a rod. I mean look, I you could say
37:58
almost 700. Home runs, Aaron.
38:01
I knew you were going to do a Yankee.
38:03
I knew you were I. Have I had to?
38:04
I had to and well, obviously a rod is it's unspoken because you
38:08
then obviously I'm going to go with someone.
38:10
I obviously watch now with another Yankee Stan.
38:13
Look, I mean get to meet a lot power.
38:18
He just absolutely crushes the ball.
38:21
He's considered just you're going.
38:23
Playoff stand? You're not going regular season
38:25
stand. But you know what, man?
38:27
He hits the ball hard. That's the power hitter.
38:29
I get it. In every single direction, if
38:32
you know what I mean. He's not wrong.
38:35
He's not wrong, all right. Speedy, All right, I'll.
38:38
Round it out with just recently inducted into the Hall of Fame,
38:41
Adrian Beltre, close to 500 home runs.
38:43
I don't think he quite got there, but obviously doing with
38:45
so many different teams, I've given a lot of credit with like
38:47
doing it all different ballparks to Dodgers.
38:49
When you came up as a young player too, that was a very
38:51
heavy pitching ballpark at Dodger Stadium.
38:53
Then doing it with Texas as well.
38:55
He had the one year with the Red Sox and again doing it all
38:58
throughout his career for about a 20 year span before he ended
39:01
up retiring is fantastic. Almost 500 Aroms got to go
39:04
Beltre. And Jabba.
39:08
You're going to you're you're going to lose this one and
39:12
speedy, I know you are great at these, but the fact that you
39:17
guys didn't bring Jim Tomei up. Oh.
39:19
He stole them from me. 612 homers and literally one of the
39:26
nicest human beings in the planet and I can I can say he
39:33
never got a Homer run off of me. Like Dracula.
39:37
Gary, Gary Sheffield was another one for me.
39:41
But it's like, I get so involved, especially when we go
39:46
into baseball sides, and but to do it in the way that Jim Tommy
39:56
did it, as humble and as proud as he was and just to be one of
40:01
the greatest dudes. There's nobody bag of doughnuts
40:07
over there, so he hit over 600 over.
40:11
Sorry about your guys's luck. How farted?
40:13
Not women. So.
40:16
There's a lot of there's luck and then there.
40:18
Where you? Where you going fish?
40:19
And then there's guys who come up when they're 20 years old and
40:23
are the best player in baseball immediately and then has a
40:25
decade where he's unstoppable. He's five of them runs away from
40:29
400 right now. I'm talking about Mike Trout.
40:32
This has to be on every single list of anything from 2000.
40:37
He was a one-of-a-kind player I would say.
40:39
Maybe his swing didn't look like it, but the way he was built
40:42
physically 6162 with no neck, all muscle, all trap like Mickey
40:47
Mantle. Play the game.
40:49
Like it from new from New Jersey, but South Jersey, that's
40:52
different. They say like pork roll down
40:54
there. Nobody gives a shit about those
40:56
people in South Jersey and they're Eagles fans, all those
40:59
trashy S Jerseyans. But Mike Trout, certainly one of
41:02
the greats of all time. Errol, who's moving on to the
41:05
Jows? Guys forgot about Jeff Bagwell
41:07
too. He was pretty damn good.
41:08
Bagwell, yeah, for sure, I'm going.
41:13
To. Go Speedy and John give.
41:15
Me that chicken Curry all right let's move on Aaron you can pop
41:19
out great effort I will stay up here the.
41:23
Jason Giambi thing I just didn't Giambi.
41:26
I thought when mine were pretty good, I'm not going to lie but.
41:28
Yours was. Yeah, no, yours were great.
41:31
Here we go, Jabba as a picture. You're going to.
41:33
Have fun with this one. Who threw the best change up of
41:38
all time? So we got this one.
41:41
It'll be back and forth. Not going to go twice in a row
41:44
on this round since it's just the two of you guys.
41:47
Errol, tell us who is going first.
41:49
I'll go speak. All right, I'll go with the
41:52
That's one that I remember seeing at the when I was a kid.
41:54
That was Johann Santana with the circle change when he was with
41:57
the Twins. Wanna Sai Young, I believe in
41:59
2003 or 2004. And again, it really kind of
42:02
elevated the circle changes being a main type of pitch for a
42:05
lot of these younger pitchers down the road.
42:07
That's the best one I've seen. I got to go him.
42:09
Jabba. You're you're literally like,
42:12
are you not forgetting Greg Maddox?
42:16
Greg Maddox, Like not only throat 2 seamer but change up
42:21
wise to be able to do both of those things.
42:26
He was so great at everything that he did.
42:28
In. His change up because he wasn't
42:33
a 95 guy. He was a change up guy that he
42:38
pulled and plot. That's what he did.
42:40
And his change up was crazy. He tried to show me how to do
42:44
it. Had no freaking idea.
42:47
I was like, I'll try. I've literally I think I threw
42:52
10 change UPS probably in the big leagues and I think two of
42:55
them are still going. Two in the pink and one in the
42:58
stink. Also also a circle change guy
43:03
right? It was a circle change Java that
43:05
Maddox. He was, he was, he was off
43:07
harness. So I.
43:08
Need a magnifying glass? So when I say off harness like
43:14
that's 4 seam. So Greg was he was on the side
43:18
but he wasn't full circle. Interesting.
43:23
All right. Speedy.
43:24
All right. I'll go back to the nineties,
43:26
2000s Pedro Martinez. I'll go with him as obviously
43:29
having the many different. The longest fingers in the game.
43:33
Well, yeah, that'll help when throwing a change up.
43:35
Could do it in a lot of different directions that he did
43:37
when he was with the Mets. He obviously had more of a
43:39
downward drop to it, but when he was with the Expos and the
43:42
Dodgers before that and with the Red Sox, could rotate it left
43:45
and right. Many different with grips.
43:47
So I'll go Pedro Martinez #2. Jabba.
43:51
And I'm, I'm, I'm going to kill you on that too.
43:53
And I'm going to go in the same realm, Tom Cliven.
44:02
Tom Gliven was literally left-handed 1 / 300 games
44:08
finished obviously with the Mets, but never threw hard
44:15
exactly like Maddox did. But you look at exactly what he
44:20
did and his splits on the same time left and right and it
44:26
played 22 years and literally changed up people to death.
44:33
His change up when he threw it was 49%.
44:42
It was it was diabolical. Like I wish, I wish I could
44:47
throw a change up my my son's best bitch.
44:49
Ball bag. Is a change up and those two
44:54
dudes were unbelievable to me, Speedy.
44:59
All. Right, I'll run it out with a
45:01
Yankee that had a very good one. Obviously he played more of his
45:03
crew with the Orioles, but might be Cena had a very good one as
45:05
well. Obviously it kept it going for
45:07
quite a while. Kind of later in his career.
45:08
Had to keep it going with the Yankees to be able to be
45:10
effective with his with breaking, breaking the trends
45:13
with the off speed pitches. But I I only got to see him with
45:15
the Yankees. I did.
45:16
I wasn't alive for watching baseball him with the Orioles at
45:18
the time, but that was always a pitch he relied on, especially
45:22
with the Yankees later in his career.
45:23
And Jabba to finish it. Well, you don't like Moose
45:28
relied on his curveball really early early and I'll get I'll so
45:33
I'm I'm going to go I'm going to go kind of new school in this
45:36
110 months ago. And. 2 Science was a fastball,
45:43
curveball guy, but what people don't understand how good those
45:49
two pitches were because that he could throw a change up and just
45:56
to show it and you want to go power rankings, you want to do
46:00
anything. He's literally in the top 10 and
46:07
all of it. I wanted to go Ubaldo Jimenez
46:10
too. That was another one.
46:14
But those three, I think just literally, they were so
46:18
different and how they just compartmentalized how I'm
46:23
supposed to do this and it made them better.
46:28
And that's what they did and that's exactly what they did.
46:31
And that's why I don't know if once him get in the Hall of
46:34
Fame, probably not. But Maddox and Gliven, no better
46:41
change up. I would say there's only one
46:43
name. I didn't I I was expecting you.
46:45
I didn't hear which was Trevor Hoffman.
46:47
Trevor Hoffman like made his whole career on.
46:49
The IT was a split, it wasn't a change up they.
46:51
Called it a change up though. No, it was a split.
46:56
You. Guys.
46:56
Go go go look at his videos. It's not a change up you.
47:00
Guys forgot split, you guys forgot one that's still playing
47:03
in the game and that's Jacob degrom who has probably the best
47:05
change up in in the game. So.
47:07
But it's a split Jacob, it's not a.
47:10
Change up Jabba explain to me what is it change what the
47:13
difference is when this when we say because the.
47:15
Split is your fingers are separated.
47:19
A change up is a change up. Those are different.
47:24
No Jacob degrom has the best change up in baseball.
47:26
Yeah, his is a change. Up.
47:28
It's a It was a split. No, Jacob degrom is a is a
47:31
change up. He was, he would, he was this
47:33
way. It's the same thing that Ian
47:35
Kennedy did. It's the same thing that it's
47:39
not a full blown. Kind of like somewhere in
47:41
between is most of my understanding.
47:43
It's like a split. I've heard it called a split
47:45
change. Like we we talk about all the
47:48
time as Yankees fans. Airbender, what he does is he
47:56
pronates. He pronates and that's what he
47:59
does. But it's a change up.
48:03
It's not a split. Interesting Errol who's moving
48:07
on take on the King. I I like the new Cena.
48:10
I like the Pedro Martinez. I'm going to go with Speedy.
48:13
P All right, Speedy moves on everyone else back in to the
48:19
heads up competition for voting rights in here.
48:23
If you didn't like it earlier, if you were voted down time to
48:27
get your retribution against the king.
48:29
Come back in everybody and here it is Best Home Run Derby champs
48:35
of all time. Yes, the Derby is on right now.
48:38
They are getting close to the finals.
48:41
Looks like Junior Caminero is going to be one of the
48:43
finalists. Not sure where they're at on the
48:45
other side of the bracket yet. Could be Cal Raleigh or someone
48:49
else. Errol, would you like to go
48:52
first or seconds? I'm trying to think if I give it
48:59
to his first. Of all, I won that, by the way,
49:01
there's no chance. You thought Speedy won that?
49:04
No chance. Yeah, I did.
49:06
I thought speedy. I thought speedy.
49:09
I think speedy. Did a job.
49:10
Pedro might have had the greatest change up of all time.
49:15
I mean what? What?
49:16
Tell me why, Tell me why. You, you tell me.
49:20
Tell me, Greg and Tom Glavin. Tell me why.
49:26
Really. I just, I, I'm not, I'm not a
49:32
big Tom Glavin supporter, so that's the only reason.
49:35
Why I like you don't have to be the best.
49:37
I got it. Fan of them but did he win 300
49:41
games? How many did Pedro win?
49:43
Not as many as Tom Gliven I. Got.
49:46
It not as many as Tom Gliven, sorry.
49:53
All right. All right, I'm out.
49:55
I know you're out. I know you're a little butt
49:57
hard. I am a legend, yes.
50:00
You are Errol. Who's going first?
50:01
I'm going. To go first, I'm going to go 19.
50:08
I'm going to go with Ken Griffey junior.
50:10
Hitting the warehouse. I'm going to go with that one
50:12
free time Home Run Derby champion.
50:15
Obviously what he did, it was just unbelievable.
50:18
Put a display, a towering display at the high fence at
50:23
Baltimore. So I'm going to go with Ken
50:25
Griffey Junior. I'll go with the one we talked
50:27
about a lot on this show. That's Josh Hamilton doing what
50:29
he did at Yankee Stadium. Yes, job.
50:31
I know he didn't win. I actually picked Justin Moore
50:33
no that year, but. Speedy, speedy.
50:35
The rule was champs. Champs of all.
50:38
Time it wasn't specifically champs.
50:40
OK, all right, then I'll, I'll shift it to the I'll shift it to
50:44
the Prince Fielder one in 2009, a couple years later to a great
50:47
duel with with Nelson Cruz in that one.
50:49
That was a that was a difficult one.
50:52
Cruz is a young player at the time and Prince Fielder I think
50:54
had the most at the time, 450 foot home runs I think since the
50:59
steroid era. So I'll I'll go with Prince
51:01
Fielder for the first one. All right, Errol.
51:06
I'm going to go. I'm going to go with Vladimir
51:09
Guerrero junior. I'm going to go with him.
51:12
Obviously he holds the record, a home run at Home Run Derby in
51:16
2019 with 91 home runs right over Josh Hamilton in 2008.
51:21
So I'm going to go with Vladimir Guerrero Junior in 2019.
51:25
Yeah, I'll, I'll round it out with that steroid era one in
51:29
2000 with with Sammy Sosa, the Turner Field in Atlanta too at
51:33
the time, obviously different, different times.
51:35
But again, this competition he had to face that year and being
51:38
able to beat it out with all the steroid error and still having
51:41
one of the highest totals. That lasted for a while until
51:44
Josh Hamilton broke it in 2008, even though he didn't win fish.
51:46
I know. Why?
51:47
Why was Why was Josh Hamilton not in the conversation?
51:50
He hadn't. He didn't win.
51:51
It was only champion it was. Only technically a champion, not
51:54
overall performance at. The same time you still have to
51:57
put him in the conversation. I know, but we've we talked
52:00
about it. With Ken Griffey Junior because
52:02
he wanted 9490. Eight.
52:03
Yeah. So I mean, Errol, I've already
52:06
kind of get tipped my hands once.
52:08
You say Ken Griffey, junior, I'm voting for you.
52:09
I'm. Going Where did Daddy give my
52:11
friend a funny one. Oh, go ahead, my final one.
52:13
I thought you already went. No.
52:14
I didn't give my third one right.
52:15
It's three right. Three.
52:17
Yeah. Bobby Abreu, 2005.
52:20
I mean, what he did in 2005 sets the record home runs of 24 in
52:24
the Derby. Well, and by the way, he had 41
52:28
in 2005, so 41 and he had 25 and 124 in the one of the rounds.
52:33
So I'm going to go with Bobby Abreu, so.
52:37
And I'll, I'll round it out with the that duel that you were
52:39
talking about with Vladimir Guerrero junior.
52:41
He ended up ousting him out the one year, but then Pete Alonso
52:43
wins it the next year too. He set the record in 2021 before
52:47
he he ended up still end up keeping the streak going after
52:50
that. I think he was out of the years
52:51
one of the rounds, but Pete Alonso doing it as a young
52:53
player. Vlad, I think that year was an 8
52:55
seed too, which was crazy too. And he ended up going all the
52:58
way to the finals, I think knocked out Julio Rodriguez.
53:00
But Pete Alonso ended up bouncing him out with had to
53:02
compete with all that combined total.
53:06
All right, Speedy confused because he said he was rounding
53:09
it out when there was still another round left.
53:11
Guys, I am going with Errol on this one.
53:13
A couple of names that I didn't hear that I remembered growing
53:17
up. The big ones that I really
53:18
liked. I I mean the Sosa 1 was great,
53:21
but the Griffey won a couple of times.
53:23
Frank Thomas, he won three times.
53:26
Griffey, Frank Thomas had a legendary performance as well.
53:30
I think the other one that we didn't hear that I loved was
53:35
Robinson Canal because I love Robinson Canal when he won his.
53:37
But that's that's pretty much it.
53:39
I'm going with Arrow. Go to Aaron for your vote.
53:44
I'm also sorry, I'm also going to go arrow, but arrow real
53:47
quick. You said for Vlad for 19, he
53:50
didn't win in 2019, did he? Not that.
53:52
Was. A win.
53:53
I think he did win in. 2019. He didn't know.
53:56
I don't. He won in 2023.
53:58
He won in 20. 23 He. Didn't win in 19?
54:01
Well, he hit. 401991 all times in that so.
54:05
No, yeah, I was just confused, but I'm still going.
54:07
I'm still going with. Vladimir Kroger in 2023.
54:15
It doesn't. Matter it isn't no and Java your
54:17
vote. I got speedy of.
54:19
Course he. Did all right.
54:21
Well, it's 2:00 to 1:00. We're going.
54:24
Errol gets to keep the crown another week.
54:26
Speedy. Closest you've been, but the
54:28
king stays, I think. Once again, I'm king of the.
54:33

54:35

55:00
Oh, yes. Is that, is that point employer?
55:02
Oh, we're going to have is he, is he actually going to be here?
55:06
Yeah. So yeah, current Dolphin.
55:08

55:11
Come on man Ram. We'll get Eli.
55:14
We'll get Eli on too. Can I slap your ass?
55:18
Somebody and I think Nathan wants to slap job his ass.
55:20
What do you guys think Speedy? Speedy how?
55:22
Big. I don't want to.
55:24
I have a small. Ass.
55:25
But it's nice. Listen, I got a small hand so
55:28
Jabba's ass will probably look like a grapefruit to my hand.
55:31
You know, it's something, maybe a watermelon speedy you like.
55:35
I don't. Care about any conversations
55:36
about yours? Jabba's a niffen's hand slapping
55:39
or whatever. I mean, what kind of watermelon
55:41
do you like? Do you like?
55:42
Hey, listen. Some water, there's pitless and
55:45
then who? Would you?
55:46
